Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:17):
I'm recording, mate. Do you know what I realized on
the way over was an absolute banger that I've not
listened to for ages, and I listened to it about
twenty times.

Speaker 2 (00:25):
Is that when you pulled into the car pack down
here and I've never heard music as loud.

Speaker 1 (00:29):
No, that's a good song, learning it what I got on? No,
it's Brian Adams and Melsie Baby when You're gone, I
realize I'm in love? Will that be the best spice girls? Oh,
Melsie had some bangers. She did have some bangers. Yeah,
things will never be the same again. Know, Jerry did
it It's raining Men, which were good not original though,

(00:50):
Like she literally just copied of someone else's song? Did
she She did? But she did it well. Emma Bunting
didn't have all See, I don't. I'm not that fond
of Jerry or Hallewell anymore because she's like so middle class.
She isn't, but she's gone from being like some working
class girl getting boobs out on Telly. Do you remember
that she was? She was like a grammar model, Yeah,

(01:12):
and to now being really middle class and a lovely woman.
Is she ever ginger? Yeah? I get the things she
died it ginger to be ginger spice. God, do you
remember when girls had that, Like they dye their hair
and they have those broad blonde streaks at the front. Go,
It's ever been a more unattractive problem called painkillers. It's

(01:33):
really good on Netflix. And the one of the lead women,
they've got those two little dangly things looks like a
little spiders. What are they called bangs? Bangs? Bangs? They're
called bangs, aren't they? When they come down antennas. I
think Drewpy antenna's. It's essentially a Drewy antenna speaking in
a Drewpy antennas, no jerking Hello, This is Manhood. Series

(02:00):
is three. We finally got together. We're in Tom's guarden,
so you might hear outside of having a scrapping bush
speaking of middle class we are. I mean, it's been
too long and it done. We've been putting off for ages.
We've had busy with work holidays.

Speaker 2 (02:14):
We're really nice actually having six week holidays not having
to worry about doing the podcast. As much as I
love doing it, sometimes it's like.

Speaker 1 (02:22):
Oh, we can't go to that stay of a night
at hotel because I've got to do a podcast with
Domb When the lad dude does funk all, he's worried
about how much time it's taken up. I wouldn't come
from a from Wales, Gibbie GiB dog and that was
his that was his constant joke, how I don't do
anything for the podcast. He does listen to the podcasts,

(02:43):
but he's gone joked on and Wales is like, don't
do anything. Tom.

Speaker 2 (02:47):
I could say, like I'm so busy, like what you
don't and this this guy like works full time for
a bank, like do you know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (02:54):
He's not like that. He does software something I don't know.

Speaker 2 (02:57):
He works with his landing in his house anyway, that's
by the by, But yeah, that's that seems to be
good to joke. But ironically, I'm probably the hardest working.

Speaker 1 (03:04):
You do you do? You do work hard? Your problem
is I work harding a different way. Do you do
little bits on lots of projects, yes, but then you
get other people to do the actual I mean, you
do a lot of graft, but when the hard work
comes in, you're like, who can I pay cheaply? As brother,
let's get him in.

Speaker 2 (03:23):
Luke is a right grafter honestly, he is cut from
the same cloth as that family.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
Although, Luke, we have been if you're listening to this, mate,
we have been down to the building to check out
the new building work that you've been doing really hard
work on. We did spot that you only painted the
visible side of the iron beams, though I realized it's
supposed to coat the beaming read dot rockside and it's
done downstairs. But I was looking at one of the
front beam anyways, boring it anyway, it's been how long?

(03:48):
Three months? Maybe more? Yeah? Probably should we apologize to you,
should apologize to the listeners being so sorry. We've just
had loads on and we know that you accept it,
and it's you know, I mean.

Speaker 2 (03:58):
I've got a list of that as long as my arm,
but I feel like going over it in.

Speaker 1 (04:02):
One episode A bit holiday let's start there. What holiday
you went to? Wales?

Speaker 2 (04:07):
But I think I've been to Corfu the last last
podcast you I'm almost certain I've been to Corfu. I
reckon it was mainly the last episode June July August day,
three months anyway.

Speaker 1 (04:20):
Both ordered were lovely good camping? Was I love camping?
Do you know why I started grounding now? What's that?

Speaker 2 (04:27):
Were you here for Niko's birthday and he got invited?
But you want you don't know what grounding is. Basically
it's it sounds more complicated it is, but in camping
you can do it. Loads You basically walk around in
bare feet and you get energy from the earth. Now
you're looking at me like you know, am a piece
of shit?

Speaker 1 (04:44):
Actually yeah, but try it.

Speaker 2 (04:45):
You took your shoes off, Now you would feel in
ten minutes to walk around on this patio or that grass,
you would feel like the.

Speaker 1 (04:53):
Thing on Diard when that guy says, if you're scared
of flying, what you should do is when you land,
take your shoes and socks off, scrunchy it like make
fists to your feet on the carpet, just like they had. Listen.
I'm not a big That's where I got it from.
I'm undecided about this whole energy thing, just because if
a walk on bare feet, mangle gets better. Really really yeah,

(05:14):
that's because you wear vans and stuff vans and feel it.
I can feel it coming from the ground. I went
on a date with someone and in the grounding well no, no,
but on this energy subject, and like it was fine,
and she was loveling. She was like, do you want
to come to my drinks manufacturing plant? Yeah, this is

(05:36):
a joke. No no, no, no, no no. What she
called Ben Shaw called Ben? That's called it was called
Gloria Coca cola. What sort of people you did? What
sort of people you did? No? No, no, it would
make me a drinks manufacturing plant. This is like two
years ago. Yeah. So it was like we had a
phone day. I always a Sunday. It's good to test first,

(05:57):
a phone date. Do it on the phone, videos, video
or yeah, it's fine. So she was like, you want
to come to my drinks manufacturing plant? And I was
like yeah, because I love how it's made. Come outside.
Do you remember that program where I was going in
the factories. Loved that. So I was like, this is like,
there's potential. I'll marry this woman. And I got there
and the drink she manufacturer was kambucha. It's one of

(06:17):
those hippie bbe weird a minute, this is a small
scale scale. This is woman Dad's back. But she was
with sterilizing machines, selling into factories, like selling into big
she's really over sold anyway. Yeah, it was a big
plant though, they had big vats of stuff because it
got to ferment Combut anyway, there were these crystals on
top of the vats and I was like, what are they.

(06:39):
It's like it creates a positive energy in the factory,
and I instinctively went, but they don't that what you mean?
And I could instantly tell she was like, I don't
want to see this guy bringa so anyway, I can't
get on board with crystals. And she was like, oh,
show me around and got to her office and she
had these crystals on top of the filing cabinets. I

(07:00):
was like, oh, so, what's the idea that you know,
benefit of the doubt? What is the It's like, well,
the crystals in here connect to the crystals in there
through energy, and it just creates a real positive vibe
and it just means that things will go really well
for us and it'll make the drink taste and nice.
I was like, honestly, do you show a profitable business.
Get me out there. Is it profitable? He could have been.
It was a type of thing that Hugh firmly witting
store was into that, and he was a customer, I believe.

Speaker 2 (07:23):
Probably, but like, I'm not going as far as crystals.
I'm not there yet, but I do. Honestly, this sounds
really pathetic, but when I walk around bare feet, I
do feel happier for it that then Ice Bass bare
feet on top of the world.

Speaker 1 (07:35):
You've got trainers and thick socks on now twenty six
degrees outside.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
Well, I don't know if I felt a bit weird
podcasting barefoot. It's a bit awkward that ups looking at
my feet, wouldn't you.

Speaker 1 (07:45):
I don't think i'd make a habit of stepping down
at your feet. Ground now if you're met a ground now, no, no,
it's fine. Yeah, well now now now I will look
because you're making me away. I mean, I've got of
you right down your shirts and you are no Terry Wogan.
So anyway, Cavin with great. It was really really good,
good break.

Speaker 2 (08:03):
We stopped at Weals on the way back to my
mate who lives opposite the cattle ink of Philly. Do
you live with opposite the cattle literally at the view
of the castle. Yeah, really nice house, but some dawn problems.

Speaker 1 (08:17):
What are you telling everyone that? Well, when we stayed over,
you know, when you can you can feel house is
a bit damn. Oh yeah, I had that when I
slept over in your cellar ones. Yes, I walk up
with flu mold on my arm pits.

Speaker 2 (08:33):
But yeah, a really good time. And then and then
we've just been kind of not with little breaks here
and there. We did Ingleborough. Yeah, I saw that other day,
which is the hardest of three peaks.

Speaker 1 (08:42):
My dad. Yeah, I did Penn again. Penny, It's easy,
isn't it. I'm having knee surgery tomorrow. And I did
Penn again. I did the three peaks with no crucial
do sicause she's done with three peaks. And I went
no for your knee. I like, I don't want to
put him in the position of him going yeah, I'll
do it, I'll push it and then you have a

(09:02):
massive swollen and they won't do it anyway. Yeah, it
really had work. And we went up that one room
and we came down and the other room. We went
up that grassy hill which climb up we kept. We
came down there. Did you go up that a sledge
down there? No, we went up because that's that's some
of the most challenging. I know that I'm no bare

(09:23):
grills or anything like that, but that's one of the
most challenging things I've ever done. I would just envisioned
my children falling off a mountain. I'll gook back when
we did that to paint a picture. If you're not
that familiar with Ingolborough, if you go up the hard route,
there's basically a vertical climb and it's just got steps
that are just like it's where the land has slipped.

(09:43):
It's almost through a waterfall. You're climbing almost through. Yeah,
it's nuts. And we did that and it was the
third peak we've done. So we've done pen again, worn
side and then you get to Ingleborough and you have
this little jaunty walk you're saying, oh yeah, my feet
hurting a bit, but we're fine. And then you get
to this vertical climbate in Gulborough and as soon as
you've done two steps you're like, I'm just gonna throw
myself off it fall death is easier than completely.

Speaker 2 (10:06):
And then you get to the top of there and
then you've got five mile water to finish line. Yeah
it fruit but yeah, we've done loads, a little.

Speaker 1 (10:13):
Breaks, went to Derbyshire and all that jazz, but you
know it's been really nice and the six week old
is I don't know. You think it's gone like that, Yeah,
really quickly, like you've been a grease. You a week
in Greece or two week ten days. Funny time actually
has gone for two weeks. Oh man, it was az
I've not been a coffee as an adult. My parents
had taken me as a baby, but I'd not never
been as adult. Unbelievable. Yeah, absolutely, but it's nice. But

(10:35):
they all go well, you would say that because you
from there. Everything it's the most relaxed place I've ever been.
Make do a mend is an attitude that has gone
out of the world. And in Greece, everybody's house is ship.
Everybody's house is fucked. You don't throw anything away. There's
nothing thrown away. There's not a single car that's not battered. Yeah,
everybody's house is you know, everything's peeling off. Nobody cares,

(10:58):
there's no peer pressure. Everybody's just relaxed. Everything looks but
it looks good for it, like bangers over there look amazing,
Like look, I'll call that car is. What I did
notice is that there's not a single completed building project.
There's either building going on or they've just they're just
packed up halfway through we got near enough. He's like
a finished hotel. But the roof off still come out

(11:20):
of it just gives they want to go up and extend. Yeah,
but I just I just love.

Speaker 2 (11:25):
They don't borrow really over there, so they only do
when they can afford to pay for it. They don't
get mortgages, loans very rarely anyway to build buildings.

Speaker 1 (11:33):
They do bit by bit. I just love that everyone's
cars hold as well. Yeah, there's no pressure of the
latest car. Yeah yeah, this has got a car over there,
it's got an old rover and to be fair, it
looks pretty so the lasts longer because of the climate
a thousand thousand years wherever it were.

Speaker 2 (11:48):
And they picked a family for the airport from airport
and this is working night and working. But it fixed
it as he went along.

Speaker 1 (11:54):
It's just brilliant. Over it, it looks like an absolute bang,
But over there it was class. One thing I did
need to ask is why does everybody's bonnet look burned?
The paint is stripped off everybody's bonnet. It's the what's
it called pina effects, something pina effect or patina patina.
It's just honestly posed on sand them down. It is

(12:15):
really cool, like for de I mean the way I'd
done it is I got a nice hotel. It was
nice and quiet, middle class, but there was but there
was a there was the reason that I got a
good deal is because it was fairly close to the airport. Yeah,
but I loved it. If you're a plane spot, it
was literally the video Don showed me was honestly, it's

(12:38):
a playing spots. It's incredibly if if if you it's
still it was still quite expending half hour the planes about. Yeah,
busy roughly and week Sundays like dead you were there
that long out the schedule it was. It was after
the first night. You just saw it out and I
was in it. Like the room soundproof and stuff. It

(12:58):
didn't really matter, but the view was incredible. I'd do it.
I'd stay there again. Like it did look nice. What
it called Corfu Holiday Palace like that palace it was
in the seven isn't you could tell? But it was. Yeah,
a lot of them work.

Speaker 2 (13:15):
There's an Ikos hotel. If you want to got a
Corfu look at Ikos apart. It's expensive. You'd be about
eight grand for a week. I know what he's thinking
it's middle class, but it's amazing eight grand for a
week all inclusive? You be for you about mine was
mine was half bored and it was half that is
that one thousand pounds a night?

Speaker 1 (13:34):
I'd have to have so much buffy a thousand pounds
I would literally probably give myself. I reckon youurism trying
to eat my way through that. I reckon you can
find a hotel for a few hundred quid a night
and eat like a king, not all inclusive night. Yeah,
and then yeah, I think with Corfu.

Speaker 2 (13:51):
Now when you go on holiday, you spend your hundred
pound night in a restaurant. So restaurants are cheap there anymore.
It used to be four or five years of Maine,
now the fifteen six years. Yeah, you are spending one
hundred uros a night, and if your fact that ends
your all inclusive that's eight hundred euros.

Speaker 1 (14:06):
Drink for me and Ted lunch shows about hundred duros.
And yeah, so it does make sense. All inclusive will
become more and more popular, but they'll become more more expensive.
You have never been an all inclusive And whilst we're camping,
really we're camping, and it were getting a bit, you know,
because I love it.

Speaker 2 (14:21):
I could live in a van in a field and
the kids love it. But you can tell she wants
to be a comfort down again. She's really good at
camping in tabery. But you can tell it now and
again she just wants.

Speaker 1 (14:29):
To be typical body woman. She wants and she could
and it's fair. I think we're driving.

Speaker 2 (14:36):
We're driving treat the word treated treated. I'll tell you
about the stress of the campvan on the way down
by the way right. So she goes, can we just
have an all inclusive?

Speaker 1 (14:46):
Please? One time? Please tell begg into me to put
me in my pocket. And I went, yes, I'll take
an inclusive, don't worry. So basically the camp van was
all packed up ready to go camping. I think it
was the Friday we're going so Thursday to Cold Dad.
I'm gonna go put the petrol in, so I'd have
to put it at four morning, so I go get
in the car, I drive off. I ain't got the

(15:06):
key for the fuel tank. That the thing. It's got
a separate key. It's like a polypocket key. It's tiny.
Where is it, don't it is? Sorry, Abby, I can't
put fuel in white I can't open the cap. I
was like, you are joking me. It's nine o'clock at night.
We set up at five in the morning.

Speaker 2 (15:20):
She said, oh my god, she's tearing it out upside
down trying to find this key. And I'm like, I
want a break into my own van ere to get
fuel into it.

Speaker 1 (15:28):
So I did. I didn't know how to do it.
Were YouTube in it. It's a fifty year old van.
There's not many guys breaking into an old, fifty year
old van fleet fuel gap. So I met I always
know a guy me and what's up to my my mechanic?
And I said what do I do? And I said, look,
but you buggered, really, you've got to snap it off.
So at nine o'clock the night before was snapping off
my fuel cap, not actually wondering if it'd actually come
back on again, bent it off and it were fine.

(15:50):
But that whole hour of stress the kids were around.
They said bad. It was the sel stressed with. Nico
walked pass me with THEO and he went, come on THEO.
Let's not talk Tom and Mummy and Daddy. Let's just
let I'm trying and find this key. Let's leave them alone.
And he walked off into the back room and the
literate sight corner of room and Nico because the stressfully well,
so yeah, then you were like, can we just all
inclusive next time? Did he go back on the fuel?

(16:11):
And our listeners are chomping at the bit to know
this information. It went back on, but it's wonky. But
this is a weird question. But you know, a week's
a long time. Although you are married, when you're camping
in van, is there any private time the campra van's rocking,
don't come a knocking? The kids and I used to
do you know I had that on the back of
the van. Yeah, weird that before the kids were boorn,

(16:34):
I had the back window. I had a load of stickers.
We traveled Europe. We drove to cough Through in this
van and every town or we're camped in with bot stickers. Okay,
and one of the stickers have got in the early
days with the camp Frien's rocking don't come a knocking,
which is a bit cringe creeper really in it. And
then I took it to a garage in Otley to
get painted and guess what he did. He took the

(16:54):
window out to do a proper respray smashed the window
years of history. Did you say to that to him?
Did you ever goot turned up and went, oh yeah,
smash your back went okay, I'm not bad about that.
But my stickers. Yeah I tried to rescue stickers, but
I cut my hands to shreds. Pick about class, No,
he should now important. That is to a camp of

(17:15):
an enthusiasm. I didn't know. He goes put your new
in its charge with tom so scared of wasps, and
he just absolutely shut himself. Okay, then it's coming towards
what you do. Nothing you will. It's not going to
do anything to do on your arm. Yeah you like me,
or you're weird, do anything early was weird people. They
stay still. It goes away. They don't go away. It's

(17:37):
called being calm under pressure. Watch he wants my vintor. Look,
so he's not going to do anything. He what sting
me unless I try and kill him. Anyway, that's actually
gone away. So is that is that? Do you get?
Do you get a little bit being in the van?
Do you get a bit amorous during those single care
free days? Yeah, look at me, I'm hot blooded males
a bit of a fetish and a piece of meat,

(18:00):
know this kind of real way? You just can't. It's
got squigget suspension. How do you how do you find
out if you're into weird stuff? Like? How do you
find out what your finish is? All? Right? But you
just stumble on it, don't you? Yeah, well that's fine.
Like I imagine if I get going, go on, put
your foot in my mouth? I'm like, what put your
foot in my mouth? Yeah? But how she got a

(18:21):
foot fotge of this one? How would you work out
that's what you're into?

Speaker 2 (18:24):
Well, for example, accidentally grounding now over ear and you
were pitching a tent over there? If you know what
I mean, I know you're being I know you're being
to grounding feet? Yeah, what about these just inadvertent in it?
How do you find out that you're into being shipped?

Speaker 1 (18:41):
Yeah? That's piste on. Are you having sex with someone
and they ship on you and you're oh my god? Actually,
oh you know what?

Speaker 2 (18:50):
Like it's like you're going on a stag do oh
you know what John's poolice pants is? Drunk in bed?

Speaker 1 (18:55):
Are clean up? What? Clean? It's fine? And then you
used to go in his rubbing all over his belly.
I just it just fascinated. What ship been she He's
called something. He's got a name. I don't know, but
is it akaki? No, that's in that way loads of

(19:17):
men and one woman. I don't know. Is it spratting?
You do know because on a on a previous podcast
we did I I once saw that word somewhere and
I said it wrong, and you said it's bakhaki, idiot
and revealed yourself. I said book ache, I said book

(19:37):
And you know it's sure, it's not the other way around.
But I think either way, either way don't look good
for it. Either way, it's weird.

Speaker 2 (19:44):
I remember years ago mine now Field has got a phone.
Our of Google's kind of linked. If I put what
is doing on called in Homeland?

Speaker 1 (19:53):
That one's happened with me and Teddy, But it was
it was on his iPad and he'd I saw that
he'd been googling cats with boobies. No, that's oh no, no, no, no, Teddy,
that's it. Teddy were doing cats and boogies, boot boogies, boobies.

(20:14):
Niko was googling nude women on beach. What a lad
that's advanced. I think I think I mentioned that on
the scan Corfu scatology. Scat it's called scatting, right, let's
move on. Sorry, in Corfu gatology his first pair of boobs.
I mean, actually it's not true because in Portugal last years,

(20:34):
it was like an older woman like when I say
old that, I mean like she was about seventy and leathery,
you know, leathery so then, but it was like she
must have been twenty five and she was just walking
around like yeah Corfu. Yeah, and what do you do
Teddy in the some beds like this, laying back and
he tapped me. I felt a tap on my arm,

(20:56):
and he went dad and wiggled his eyebrows at them.
He's got to that point. And and what, well did
you're you're a single man, did you say you matter?
For go and talk to her. No, she was with
a big german bloke. Oh yeah, you do want to
make sure get the German sausage. If he's listening, I
didn't even look. My son didn't. We're gonna do about it.

(21:19):
I can imagine theater getting to that point. He just
started high school.

Speaker 2 (21:22):
Oh yeah, to be fair, I think, look, we're going
to we're going to fess up me and Dom did
do a podcasting we about a week ago. This ship asked,
we won't vibeing, will we well?

Speaker 1 (21:36):
Because we've been aware a lot of time between I
think sometimes we get where we're geting too, like a
zoom call it ten.

Speaker 2 (21:42):
I'm like, I've just been satting the sofa wanting to
watch a series. Don been doing podcasts all day work.

Speaker 1 (21:47):
But we were desperate that we hadn't spoken to each
other for a couple of weeks, had where we were
desperate to catch up. So we tried to start under
the guys of a podcast. But I tried to force it.
I think, yeah, anyway, every want to force it. And
so Field left high school, left junior school. This is
all happened in between progress and he's leaving ceremony. It
was like a freaking wake. It was the saddest thing.

(22:07):
And I felt it in my chest and I think
it was emotion And did you do a crack? One
of my eyes watered up and I'm like, what the hell?
I might need a tissue here, never ever for a tissue.
The audience, and I will callt an audience were in hysterics.
Evyon were crying their house out, and this sounds really morbid,
and I don't mean it in like an defensive way.
It had the feel like the whole class had died

(22:29):
horrifically in some sort of accident and this was the wake.
The songs they played were so emotional. They had a
rolling montage of photos of all going up through school,
sad songs.

Speaker 2 (22:42):
The pinks on those shings were a daughter, There's a
song by It moved a duravision with big mouth and
long hair, Sam Rider Sam Ryder called Mountain or climbing
the mountain, You'll get there. It was so emotional and
I was like, this is ridiculous. It should be like,
you know, because Sam heavy an't like good mew music
and positive.

Speaker 1 (23:02):
They're all crying. And the funniest thing, well, theo were like,
just like me devoid him, emotions diffuble it, you know,
and all that almost like laughing. Good look at these crying.

Speaker 2 (23:11):
And he came out of school and they were like,
it's still smirking a bit and you see him come
out of the door.

Speaker 1 (23:15):
Then you don't seehim because it goes ben a wall.

Speaker 2 (23:17):
Then you see him again, and he came out of
the door and his smile and went out he's not
even crying.

Speaker 1 (23:20):
And a kid from behind the wall they smiled, turning
into it went his frown like when like his smile
went in to a frown and just and that's it.
It's brought down.

Speaker 2 (23:30):
And that hit him at that point, and I was like,
oh my, and then he was so emotional for like days.
I don't know what Teddy were like. You might not remember, yeah,
to tell you aren't that bad weirding it?

Speaker 1 (23:39):
Yeah? Did he stay at that same primary school or not?
Did he move? Yeah, Teddy's not like that, really Teddy.
Teddy didn't cry or anything about the same cloth as
me leaving. I was never that bothered door. I don't
think I went to a different middle school to all
my primary school friends and bother I don't be crying
at first school. And I just remember being dead nervous

(24:00):
about meeting new people. Yeah, so he's news where he's
going through now. But they said they did a little
shirts signing at primary school. I like, since of that
thing shirt signing, Oh yeah, everyone's signed shirt my primary
school first really we barely have shirts let one pens.
Oh no, not in my primary school. Primary primary school,
we didn't have uniforms or whatever you liked Montosauri school.

(24:20):
You go, yeah, but no, whatever you like, Yeah you
didn't that wrong, No, no we did. I'll show like
my school photos. Yeah, and in my school photos, I've
got like a Judge dread track suit on. My mom
had got from like the whatever the Primark equivalent was.
Then that was ridiculous. Yeah, yeah, whatever you want. But
I was in a three tiers sistant when I did
primary middle, and I were three tiers primary middle and

(24:43):
grammar were by.

Speaker 2 (24:45):
Name, not but yeah, one of those grammars. And so
then he's anyway starting school, and he's been really anxious.
Actually it's been really sort of like I don't know,
it's just because.

Speaker 1 (24:55):
He's anxious boy anyway, So you've got stop anywhere I've
been getting as possible. I'll go to speak to be
with macho. But no, it's fine. He had he had
his he met his mate first day. But was it today, No,
it was he had two days last week in set days.
You know what.

Speaker 2 (25:15):
Though, he had really long hair and it didn't look
good theater. I like, he said, he's got beautiful hair,
but it won't right for school. Just I mean, justin
Bieber' is not a reference now had been cold just
to Bieber.

Speaker 1 (25:26):
High school is horrendous, like your individuality almost gets batted
out of you. Like I've got a mate who's got
the nicest boy Ever's Teddy's age, lovely boy, incredible footballer
like he plays for Bradford, very very good footballer. But
he had long hair and he'd been bullied at school

(25:47):
Like this never happens, does it. Footballer doesn't get bullied.
And because school he had long hair, so he had
to beg his dad to get it off. It was.
It's just definitely to keep the long hair and awn't it. Yeah, yeah,
that's he's gone shot back in sides.

Speaker 2 (26:01):
Now, well, I said, because I said to you, I
did say, look, you can keep your fine, but I
think you should think it out.

Speaker 1 (26:05):
It's hot. It's hot as well, and it looks so
much better for it, like it really does. Now.

Speaker 2 (26:10):
I don't think they're abothered every way. But he's lost
the flat cap, you know, his signature high school and
I said, what you're gonna do? He goes, I'm going
to keep it in my bag and he's gonna put it.
How sad to that my heart melts.

Speaker 1 (26:19):
He's keeping his whole fag so little Teddy as well.
Lemming high school changes, does you just become a Lemming.
I've realized the best way for me to deal with
this emotionally is the ignorance is bliss approach. I warned
you about this. I've been wondering about this many years,
pretending that it's not going to happen. I'm just like
yet and when we're doing today and I'm going to

(26:40):
sell some nail fels and talk to them on the podcast.
In high school, yeah, okay, let's talk about that. I
warned you did not about high school like you didn't
want Hi to have a mobile phone, and son, I said,
if you don't that there's some stuff you've got a
cave into. Who always cave into that? I've always admired
that theo nikov kind of got the nineties upbringing, that
we had the play outload they have yet alway chalk

(27:00):
on the path wild. You not necessarily right upbringing for
every family, but it makes you want to do naive
though going into high school massively I was, I was exalent,
saying then when I went to when I went to
high school, I was so naive. I didn't know anything
about and for me, it was like being hit by
a truck. When I'm watching American Pie listening to Green Day,
it's all hitting me like it was all two for one.

(27:23):
It's basically you in the deep end and there's no
when you're a parent like we do, there's no preparation
you can I was a bit different with Ted because
I'd gone through that bit of bullying, being out of
touch with things, not knowing anything about. You know, people
come up to me and say you spit or swallow
and I'd be like, well, it depends if it's if
it's a hot dog, I will swallow. If I don't

(27:44):
like it, I'll spit out. And then what you know
what they meant and stuff like that. I was proper.
I didn't know what the wank assign meant? Yeah, and
everything school and I'm like year seven, yeah, no, year eight,
year nine for me, Wow, I.

Speaker 2 (27:58):
Didn't either, and I and you're right, I have we
have bring up that way now? Is it lack of technology?
And if you're giving technology earlier, they're going to find
out this stuff sooner out.

Speaker 1 (28:07):
Our eyes are open to things that you'll never What
did thee laugh when you say sixty nine. He always
laughs his head off and thinking does he actually know
what it means here laughing at sixty nine because he
knows it's I worry about how much Teddy's finding out
at high school? Do you well you go? Has he
going into year nine? The current year nine is going
into year nine? Yeah? Yeah, the system is wrong. You

(28:28):
should do three tiers. It's a gentle introduction. Yeah, it's
completely wrong. Whereas two tiers you go from year six
primary school where everyone's like skipping around and watching people
smoke and do the fact that someone get jumped off
to bite.

Speaker 2 (28:42):
But now we'd been the last year of the middle school,
which is perfect, or would he would be year eight? No, No,
year eight, so now we'd be starting high school. And
that's the time year nine when you should start a
high school, not yet. Year seven eight should be a continue.

Speaker 1 (28:55):
To middle school. Just gave you that gradual introduction to
being bigger. I completely agree with. Just However, it's more schools,
it's more staff, it's more I mean they have to
they have to conduct more than I'm sure that's the reason.
I mean. Teddy asked me for designer rundies the other
day for what Calvin Kleines. Calvin klin is still going
strong with the kids. Calvin Kleines. It just wanted them
to be branded, because obviously I just get his undies

(29:17):
from like H and M or whatever, there's no brand.
Get some Jeff Banks like your uncle Tom. What JBS
I've got Pharah unders On. Now do you know what
I get? I get whatever they've got in connection. I
get whatever they've got in a ticket max. Basically, yeah,
jeeps take it highest pack volume. So that's a three
pack for nine ninety nine. That's a five pack of
twelve ninety nine. That's better. I'm occasionally learning by Ralph Lauren.

(29:39):
They never fit me round for not big enough in
the penis region. No, No, that's not true. It's it's
the waste. There's plenty of baggage, rather the crotch. It's
the waste. How do you know what I've seen you
walking around in your undies. My bum's getting small and
it's weird. Don't match my body. It's it's age, you
lose muscle density. If you I need to do some squats,

(30:00):
if you would look at my bum naked, you'd be like,
what I actually need to put wa in? My mom
I started to put my wallet in my back pocket
to make it look bigger. Yeah, he's a big wallet.
Death got a lot closer to home. Why when other
friend's father died a close friend of the podcast, Oh
forgot about that? Yeah, Oh god, here, God, A lot

(30:22):
has happened on it. Horrible. Yeah, really, you know, we
talk about it quite a lot of our own mortality
and stuff on this podcast, but it is getting I
think we're getting at an age where I don't I
don't know if we should get fill On to talk
about that, And I think he'd appreciate because I think
it'd help him sort of deal with it a bit. Yeah, however,
you're terrible in that sort of situation. I don't I
don't if. I don't know, if he would, I don't.

(30:42):
If you want to do it, I don't know. I
wouldn't know. But it were absolutely shocking. It basically had
the characterist dropped dead, tried to revive him. They are
eventually the ambulance brought him around, but it was essentially
this is really morbid, by the way, but by this
point he's brain dead. So what they say is, you see,
well he's alive, but inside is not alive, so all right,

(31:02):
well we can't kill him what we would do, so
it basically starts to death. This is fills synopsis of it.
So because don't he can't eat, you can't feed them,
give them liquids. Because he can't eat, He's just starts
to death.

Speaker 2 (31:13):
Now, sometimes people in this, in this sort of condition
can last a week, two weeks, some last days hours.
And what was really fortunate was that he was their sister.
There's mum with the when he just really quiet the past,
and I think that was kind of that. I think
it feels like to be in there. They've been a
bit gutted.

Speaker 1 (31:30):
It's too close. Now we're in a we're getting to
an age where loser parents and family is going to happen.
I mean, I've still got cramp, but I've got still
got my mum's parents there approaching. We need to do wills,
We need to do our will. Good. Look what you
do with yours, Jesus is a minefield. Why he's still married.

(31:51):
Technically give it all to Ted. It's not getting into
the weeds of everything. I mean, yeah, it's not in
my viols. Quite simple view to be fair, because you
probably agree the same thing, wouldn't you put you You've
got to sit if you're married, you've got to sit
down in the room with slicitors, and you say, right,
this is a horrible conversation we're going to have right now.
Where's your money going? Where's your money going? The money

(32:12):
you have to get, where's that going? Where's the else going?
Where's that going? You've got to make gets the PlayStation?
Who gets the PlayStation? And we've basically got to do
it now you can, I'll put you down. You can
have my free lander. You have it? Then you change
cars more than times than hour? About dinners? Yeah, it's
do you know what that is? How to throw money away?
Like give my camphine. It would be a good one.
Who gets that? It's me. I might have to get

(32:33):
to a neutral party, so I think the boys will
be arguing on Yeah, that's a good idea of it
to me. I don't want to drive a dagger in
between him, a dagger stack and I'll put together a
schedule of when who can have it when? Yeah, schedule.
But I'm actually my dad's jukebox. Oh yeah, yeah, I mean, well,
I'm not sure your dad appreciate that I'm the only
one of his sons in this country. Your dad, Justam,

(32:54):
is not a ship Australia, is he your Your dad
just brought an old record player from me. I'll talk
about that in a minute, okay, because something about that
annoying me a bit. But he said I should to
give him it. No, no, no, I'm not saying that.

Speaker 2 (33:05):
But before he gives me the do you want to do,
I'm making sure he's getting that old jukebox serviced every year,
just so when when I do get it, it's in
tiptop condition.

Speaker 1 (33:13):
I reckon he's part of that record player so that
it can say, right, James, this one's for you. So
my dad goes he saw me whenever it was and
he went, oh, I've bought a record or Facebook went
what for? I can't. I don't know who it's for,
on what room it's for.

Speaker 2 (33:29):
But anyway he's got one and he never guess he
will buy it off and I don't know, domb I went,
hang on a minute, Newton, Yeah, I went through Facebook.
I said, yeah, why don't just ring him? And said
what can you do for this? And I said no,
I did the full transaction through Facebook.

Speaker 1 (33:46):
No he didn't. Well he did the conversation through Facebook,
but he said you saw.

Speaker 2 (33:50):
Your name and saw it record player. The messaging is
still available. That when you hear that generic message that
people said, I don't reply to people.

Speaker 1 (33:58):
I only use Facebook micplace to get rid of tach
and really good quality record players. You've got you number
when you ring. Oh so you recot player down'tah, because
we did. We've completed. Now let's talk about the discount
structure you give him. Well, I wanted it significantly more,
but it was listed for loads more at first, all right,
and then what did he pay? Seventy five quid? And
I included the Beatles Red album, which is a double vinyl. Mate,

(34:20):
your dad got a bargain. Was just trying to shift
stuff because I've got basically my granddad repaired, didn't you. Yeah,
it's been fully repaired and service. It's a bit fair
to the problem is if the tubes go, it's finished,
and that they don't make any more tubes as the
jews about to go. That's no, no, no, no no.
But that's just the case for old record players. Now
not give it. It's fine for me, but anyway, what

(34:41):
the tubes? They like little bulbs inside it that help
a record player where I don't know exactly, but basically
I'm getting rid of my old record player because my
family used to work for Rank Wharfedale, which is a
local place in Idol, used to make speakers that are
world renound. The best speakers of Wharfdale speakers are they
from the wharf Dale? Yeah, from Idle. They were made
an Idol. My dad used to work there, my uncle,

(35:03):
my granddad. So did they link with a company like
Sonya something I don't know because they're really cheap the
Prumish now. But my uncle used to make the wooden
cabinets nice and he went on to work for Magnet
making kitchens. It's a good career change. But anyway, I
want to I want to get a full warf Dale
set up because it's so I mean the likelood is

(35:25):
my uncle built the spotro one. Yeah yeah, that is
quite cool actually. But I've got the speakers, it's finding
a good record player to work with them. You need
the amp and I'd not really looked into it. I
thought you just plugged the speakers in like the back
of a I can plug him in his laptop or
os ogs care but you can't. They're very specific, so

(35:45):
I don't know this. I'm going to see if I
can find someone who will convert them Anywhay, this is
fucking boring. Oh, Teddy's first gig. Took Teddy to his
first gig, took him to see Bostoms were in leads it. Yeah, yeah,
that was quality. There was a thunderstorm. Made it very
memorable because it's awful. I said, no, mate, this is
going to be memorable a few of them, because piece
all we went to you before. Did you have your

(36:05):
Mac with you or did you own the rain? Did
you put a Mac on it? In my computer? Why
would have a computer? Ed podcasts? Now? I had a raincoat.
I knew it was going to rain. Yeah, it's quite
good to be caught out in the rain. Yeah, and
it makes it like it makes memorable. There was a
massive thunderstorm. The water was up to my ankles. Yeah,
it was mental len Square. Yeah, how did that drain away? Yeah?

(36:27):
But when we were leaving the hill, I've got video
of it. I'll show you on the streets. Yeah, something
funny transpired that you know the song Charlemagne by Bossoms
Henry and shirt Clip. Now Teddy thought he was singing
about an umbrella. And he said to me, why is
he singing about his umbrella? I said what he said?

(36:50):
He says, yeah, my Charlemagne. I said, what you're in
And he said, well, on Indiana Jones, there's a scene
where they're stuck on a beach and he gets his
umbrella out and scares all the seagulls up, and they
go up and they flying to the airplane, and the
airplane crashes into the cliff and it serves Indiana John's
and his dad right, And I was like, yeah, and

(37:10):
what really says? I suddenly remembered my Charlemagne. And then
Henry's a clip from Indiana John's Here. I suddenly remembered
my Charlemagne. A good look at this one, Henry, I
suddenly remembered my Charlemagne. And Teddy thought he meant his umbrella.
He suddenly remembered his Charlemagne. What do the mean he
meant a poet or a philosopher called Charlamagne because he says,

(37:33):
may my armies be the rocks and the trees and
the birds in the sky babble. So Indian Johnes means
the poet means the philosopher air and is that what
blossoms mean? I don't really know what they're singing about,
but they're not singing about the umbrella from Indiana Johnes.
I think it's a woman in it probably here. How
that is such a niche reference for him to link though,

(37:54):
Teddy's watched Indiana Jones loads mate because of me. We're
on the dressic park at the moment, but next is
Indiana Jones. I'll come. I want to come around and
watch Indiana Joe's because I want to explain to the
kids why it's amazing and just stick with him on
the quiet points. Were there just talking in offices because
they're the lulls out there? Yeah? Because here Jones hits

(38:15):
you with action and then there's a lull and you're like,
oh god, and you keep kids interesting. Yeah, But actually
Stephen Spielberg is the master of that, of keeping the think.
Of every single Stephen Spielberg film, there's not really a lull.
It's always like, keeps you moving, keeps going. Yeah that
that Indiana John's. You don't get that problem, but yeah,
I'll know. We're gonna We're on just a part two,

(38:35):
which is terrible awful. It's true again, you should have
stopped Atossic part one. No, there is ten the others
because Sam Neil comes back into it. Yeah, that's awful
as well. Just part three even much. They find that
they're finding another island that had dinosaur joking. So there's
a second and there was a third island. Have you
not seen johnsy By three? And it's in any of them?

(38:55):
What you see Jurassic Park. I got neighbors domb I
know they should all know what sort of fucking credit
they're living next to. You've never seen Jurassic Park? Creting? No,
I've seen it a day? Oh my god, what did
you think of the first one? Amazing? You know what?
I know A lot of the scene unbelievable, come down.

(39:15):
I know I would never have been friends with you
if I'd known you'd never seen Drassic Park. Yeah. Never.
And you've never seen Indiana Jones No never? Fuck? You
know I know some of the scenes, like the one
has been chased by the boulder and stuff.

Speaker 2 (39:26):
But what amazing is I kept saying, like this amazing
scene has come up, but I actually didn't know, but
that it goes up to the big Stephen Pallet Pooh
and goes that's one big palace ship and you knew
that was coming and you come because I've seen a
gift of it.

Speaker 1 (39:41):
You're like, and I've also seen the gift of the water. Good.
This ruins my life because Teddy I said to Teddy,
or should we watch this? And it's like I've seen it, Like, no,
you haven't. You think about on TikTok. Yeah, yeah, that's
really bad. This is unacceptable. I think I'm lied to
in that toy shop because I think when they've got
all the Jossic part toys out of thinking like a
lo we did to have scene it him that jeep

(40:02):
and you were just like, yeah, we'd seen it the
first time. It was quite it was like a nostalgic trip. Weird.
And it's weird though that those films look like they
could have just been made now. Yeah, I don't know
they've done that. That c GI it was way ahead
of his time. Yeah, but the t rep they've redone
it though. Well watch the making of it on YouTube
with the boys. Because the t Rex was a life

(40:22):
sized puppet. You it's a mixture of life sized puppet
and c GI. But yeah, the life size christ don't
the only bit Now that exposes drastic pack is when
those dinosaurs run up the hill and they're all like
the colors all off, yeah yeah, and they jump over
the branch. But it's it's fucking unbelievable quick, which is
always the sign of a good film. Yeah, Spielberg is
the master. Welcome Tommy Dam's Film review Club. Well, you're

(40:45):
not allowed to review anything, so s I can't believe that, honestly,
and I don't. I think it's probably the biggest overaction
I've ever seen. Not see the film Normal Life. I
think we end on that bombshell. People are bored of us.
I just tell you about the moment.

Speaker 2 (41:00):
Oh yeah, go on single because no, no, because you
said you kept saying this note to me before the podcast.

Speaker 1 (41:08):
Oh Abby, were told THEO to wipe his Willie? Well
you you said to you wrang me? So tomill occasion'll
do with this. He'll ring you to tell your story.
It'll get half way through it and say, actually save
that for the podcast. Have you got a pen there?
I'm like, yeah, I have a right down. Abbit asked
to wipe Willie. So I've had this note in my
work book. I can't remember. I actually can't remember this,

(41:28):
This is this is the issue THEO told to wipe
WILLI by Abby because he's not been shaking it enough.

Speaker 2 (41:33):
I guess right, the thing is right. I've not stood
with the boys and said this is how you deal
with a Wii. Yeah, so you know, I've told I'd
tell him to waggle it or whatever. But there is
technique to a waggle. But I don't remember. I don't
this member is happening. But I do remember.

Speaker 1 (41:49):
How do you know you wipe your ass properly? Well?
Do you know what I've discovered the last two years?
What two from the front, three from the back? Game changed? No,
I'm going to change it forever, once and for all.
What less wiping? Much more comfort? And are you moist white?
You're killing the planet? Mate, You are killing it, says
on the package Plushable. No. Yeah, it's a game changer.
I'm completely clean down there. If you've got a bit

(42:11):
of shit on your cheek, would you just wipe it
off for a bit of tissue? You wouldn't, would you? No,
there's a lot of toilet talk this podcast, isn't. Sorry,
try from three from the back. I'm going to continue
wet wiping from the back, especially if you've got a
bit of foliage down there. You can't believe in little
dangleberries the Amazon rainforest anyway. So one of the football

(42:31):
moms were like, oh, I've been telling what's in the
name so and so little Johnny will call him to
wipe his willy. And I'm sure gone, oh yeah, I've
been doing that, Like what wipe you willing? Like? Dab it,
just give it a shake, a bit of tissue paper.
And I've since heard that other people fam members do
do this as well with the kids, And I'm like,

(42:51):
is it as dads that have forgot to step up
to the plane and said, this is how you deal
with you willy. This is the technique. Do you know
what I mean? What one do you? No one tells
you that that should be far and wide. And this
isn't for kids ears, because it's dangerous to do if
if you're a child, do you know, sometimes especially your
first week in the morning, it's a bit sprays out
everywhere you miss the toilet. You've got pull your forsking back.

(43:12):
I've got to reset it, pull your force. If you
pull it back a bit, it's like a laser bean.
It helps you with aim. It's just anywhere. It's not true,
it's true. I just can't believe we've gone to this,
like you know, I'm telling I'm telling people to it's
a dangerous territory, especially because I'm hungry. And yeah, we'll
get some to it. We neillly done hour anyway, an't

(43:33):
we Let well, let's do it for the first one
back it will work like I'll let you do all
the promo and tee up the guests for the season.
Then oh yeah, So we had a barbecue here with
the football mums. Okay, now are any of them single? No?
All right, Well I'm just gonna ask why I wasn't
invited if there were, Well, exactly, the all couples and
they bring the kids around. They get on really well. Anyway,
You've got an Olympic cyclist for me anywhere. Go on.

(43:55):
And so the football and the football mums came around
for this barbecue. You always gets a bit messing, one
of them from Ukraine, and she brings vodka, and ironically
she gives everyone shots of vodka. And she stood there
with the smallest little bit in hers going over her
whatever it is that is, And exactly so she's getting
as all drunk anyway. The other two mums are absolutely smashed,

(44:15):
really quite leathered up. What's it called laddered up, bladdered, bladdered,
well oiled going. He's getting a bit nice out here.
And last time the neighbors complained when the boys were
playing a drum at nine at night, a quabas nine.
The neighbor from on the road matched over and told
the boys to shut the f up. So I thought
they've covered that before.

Speaker 2 (44:34):
This time we're going to go inside. Same foot on mums.
But there's a new football mum. Now, okay, she's not
been to the barbecue before. Because their son is going
to go to school with theo okay, really nice couple.
Get away with the dad proper like man's man is
a pee teacher, Well it does, private school teacher, but
there's a lot of pe. He give me a free
table tennis table and somebody someone does that. There is

(44:54):
friend for life. Not forgot of that because he's a
nice guy as well. Anyway, his wife's steaming, the other
mum's steaming, start dancing in the living room. One of
them paul axes a coffee table and smashed it into
eighteen pieces, like, oh my god, the other one is
coming here, Tom, and she's chatting to me, and she's

(45:14):
getting quite emotional, you know, and talking about life and friends.

Speaker 1 (45:18):
Sit down here.

Speaker 2 (45:19):
She plungs me on this chair and she sits on
her knee. Okay, and she sat Mane and win the
conservatory by ourself and she's sat Amony, and I'm like, what.

Speaker 1 (45:29):
How do I get this situation? Because I'm trapping really nice.
I'm like, all right, yeah, and she's like and you know,
she got a bit emotional about like lords stuff. A
son starting high school and a friend were going through
some difficulties to talk about. All sorts of it were
really you know. And I didn't say it to spice
this story up in a second, mate. I didn't say
to her, get off my lap, because this looks really dodgy.

(45:49):
I didn't want to kill it with that. Anyway. Her
son comes in and goes, oh, my mummy and Tom
I kissing kissing. They're hogging there on eacher's knee, goes
running back in tells her parents and I'm like, oh

(46:10):
my god, what how do I get this the situation?
I sat on my knee and I'm like he look me,
it's awkward, and I and I think eventually I just went,
I really need the toilet, and I actually did need
the toilet. I was busting a minute. How do you
get out of the kissing thing? Because if it happened
at a party, I was at My immediate assumption is
Tom's having an affair. I know, That's what I'm saying.

(46:32):
So and then one kid did it, and another kid
came in and went, oh, he sat in his knee,
you know, like shouting to no one else in the room.
Abby knew obviously nothing in it sorted the fairy unconservatory,
do you know what I mean? She knows there's nothing there,
But it was just the awkwardness of like having and
it sounds like I was resting on our laurels a
little bit there. Tom, No, I can not worry about.

(46:52):
So that's sounded really suspicious not to worry about. So anyway,
I said, I really need a wee, and I almost like,
you know, put her off. Anyway, went to the toilet
also undusted, went back in the house. They're all laughing
about it, you know, and everyone's drunk. Anyway, and then
she fell down the front steps and they broke an
neck anyway, So yeah, that's so awful. And games she

(47:14):
fell down the steps, Well that was steps. Yeah, ruined
my relationship, you know.

Speaker 2 (47:20):
To be fair, it were great one of those nights,
pretty impromptu, and it's just and she she would probably
hung over for about a month.

Speaker 1 (47:28):
I imagine she'd have been so hung oline, imagine the guilt.
I should probably remember it.

Speaker 2 (47:33):
In fact, I'm almost certain she listened to this podcast
and it's probably the first.

Speaker 1 (47:37):
Time she admit that there are things that happened to
me years ago where I still go, oh god, oh
you know it pops you like when you try to
get to sleep at night or something. Sometimes I'll just
be well, I'll be working at my computer. How wud
you we dealt with that? Okay, you're married. Yeah, your
wife's sitting in her room and and another white another
My ex wife would have gone fucking mental. It would

(47:59):
have been ruined. Part he ruined. But it was it
was she was drunk. It was completely innocent. I'm mad
that would have been it. It was with the fact
that no one else in the room, no one else
in the consult, why no one else in this room?
I think at one point one of the dads came
in and been explaining this but for fifteen minutes. Now
I think we get it. You didn't. Sure. Come on,

(48:22):
let's end on that bombshell if that's what you want
to call. Have you got any more in your notes? Lord?
It's left in my notepad is a drawing of a
bag you asked me to design for Rob Beckett's wife.

Speaker 2 (48:31):
Oh yeah, that's that's that's potential news. There were now
bag designers, bag designers. I got Domin and you can
and Flectim and all these lords. Yeah, you know I
did the secret.

Speaker 1 (48:45):
Don't go from now. If you read the list of
notes for next week's episode like a teaser list, we
haven't even mentioned. I've got chickens that has not even
been saving. There's a whole series to do tom anyway,
I've got knee surgery tomorrow and I can't be hanging
around here. I'm going to be laid up for a while.
Yeah we are. We're going to do some episodes when
I'm laid up. Yeah, definitely, mate, I'll come to you

(49:06):
for a change first time. Can we just bribes me over?
Can we do a live just eat Let's see what
they've got what's open now, Fine, while you look for
this Huddies field, while you have a look out up
what's coming this series? You might have seen this in
a video on Instagram. But yeah, we've got guests coming up.
We've got a fertility expert, We've got Lloyd Griffith, comedian,
We've got what else, Tom Army man Ami man. Yeah,

(49:31):
I forgot to tell you I made contact with the
guy who's in the army class what h do you
know what? I'm sick of reading this fucking list every season.
Stuff will happen, there will be episodes. We are making improvements.
In fact, we're building a podcast studio. But at the
minute it is a damp room.

Speaker 2 (49:49):
Again, there's six feet of water. I think what you've
got I think we're doing it in the room. Yeah,
it's it's in the build. I think we're doing it
the wrong with though. I think you've got to have
like an award winning successful podcast and then you build
a studio.

Speaker 1 (49:57):
Yeah, we did have an award winning successful pocketing once
the time. Let's bring it back. There's no bad tity
content out there. I'm not even kidding anyway. This has
been Manhood Series three, Episode one. Thanks for listening. Thank you.
Get in touch with us on Instagram. We're away to
eat food now and next time you speak to me,
I will be off my tits on painkillers. Oh you

(50:20):
know what, you should watch Pinklers on Netflix, a new
series about opiates in America. Oxy Mare Martin. I'm thinking
about taking to recreational drugs ty painkillers. Then watch that.

Speaker 2 (50:35):
Honestly, what it's just scary what happened in America in
this period is in fact, you'll probably not want to
make your titty pink.

Speaker 1 (50:42):
I will do you course your pinkillers that much. I
will be on quite an addictive will you course of drugs?
What will we be on? It's just like co code also,
but it's really highly addictive? Is it? And I get
something else? Why am I saying? Is it? Of course?
I know it is. It's get something else. The first
two weeks of fucking agony, it's awful first couple of days,
all right, because you're still your life, still looking at

(51:03):
you knees. How many operations if on your knees. There's
so many scars and there's going to reopen an old
scar keyo surgery. This one is that men don't tell
me it's that knee that is riddled with scars? Is
this Why do you need to do it again? I've
got so that's it's a long story, but it's only

(51:29):
it's only KEYL surgery. But these longer scars are where
they've harvested other stuff from. This is where they took
my ptell attendant to use and that failed. They've taken
my hamstrings from both legs. They failed. I think you
could be a guest. So what they're doing and look
look at this. This is where I did my m
C AL Just look at that, Look at look at
the size of that bastard. How many have you done?
All the ligaments in yourn A, C L, M C

(51:50):
O and interior. I've never been injured before. And then
what are they possibly going to do to that knee?
So now that they've knew me, I've had an operation
on it, you give a black mi mix. Well if
she'd say that a couple of a couple of years ago,
I had the operation to remove the failed grafts that
I'd had to my crucial ligament. I'd had it repaired

(52:12):
on the NHS a couple of times. Both failed, Right,
So I went private and that serge and said, I'm
just going to remove everything that's been done before, takes
out the screws all of it, puts bone grafts in
there to completely reset the knee, and then tomorrow what
they're going to do is put in an ACL from
a cadaver. It said, donor ACL from a corpse. I

(52:32):
was just joking, but it could be from anybody. Well,
I said that. I made a joke. Say no, you're
not just gonna give me an ACL from like a
ninety year old man, are you? And he went, oh no, no,
there are like young young people that have been in
road traffic accidents and stuff. Oh my god, mate, it's fascinating.
You al from a fourteen year old girl. We'll do
this on And I never thought it could be from
a girl. I was, you need as good as some
quick you paid for that a cl Well, my medical

(52:56):
insurance has yeah, but wouldn't be as good as new
you need. No, they'll still be nacking, but nine months
of physio play veterans football. Yeah. I made the joke
you know on The Simpsons where Homer gets Snake's hair
and he turns into a criminal. I made that joke
to the surgeon and he looked at me like I
was a fucking idiot. It was like what he didn't
get it references Anyway, he told me, it's fascinating the

(53:18):
way that they get them. So basically, someone will die
and then they give it a little while you know
your body's done it, and then forget that. The harvest
the body like it's a car at a scrapyard. Honestly,
they take all the ligaments and how do they keep it?
Not alive? It's dead, So they take all the blood
out of it all the day and out of it
all right, freeze dry it, I think, or something like that,

(53:38):
parts the parts or deep freeze them really quickly, and
then they're all sent to Switzerland where they're in like
a big warehouse that there's effectively a vending machine for
body parts Amazon for body Yeah, it's amazing, probably fascinating.
It won't be fano. You can bow on online. We'll
see if I can get the surgeon on, that'd be
great and we'll ask him about all this. Well, yeah,

(53:59):
but it's all so it's done like the great British
rugby team fair chocolate if the English rugby team, I mean,
he's done the Brafford City Jamie Walker, who's speaking to
about Jeremy Walker. We bonded over our failed knees. This
SPECIs a specific knie a knee surgeon Amazon ware parts,
then what I was gonna know about this Amazon wareouse
the body part because he told me about it, obviously,

(54:21):
not because he's private. They've got to do all this themselves.
Private surgeons Buckley and Ethethist all of that. They they
just get They just get a room at a hospital.
And is a private surgeon should try and get from
this Amazon body parts? Now I don't think. I think
you've probably got to be like a doctor. You can't
just order a ligament, no seeing that should get someone

(54:43):
on from the from from the place, should email them. God,
we've gone twenty minutes after we said we were going
to finish. Let's see, right, Thanks everybody for listening to
Manhood Series three, episode one. There will be another episode.
Let's just see what sort of physical condition I mean
next week. But thank you, it's great to be back.
It's another hour of shine like you. Thank you've listened.

(55:03):
Man fun MHM
