Time it's not good like it's because I'm hurry too and it's fat. But can I remember one time I remember one time a lady was was working away downstairs into the kitchen my dinner. I was trying to be and I could tell she was like I was a mistake. No, but I'm I don't look hurry. But no play.

No, no. So she was getting like and then there was a point of like there was just a note of chest, pubes and belly her. Why was that the start of bad romance? But Lady Gaga I don't like. I also don't like my balls being touched. No, but I'm not interested. I'm interested in nipple play. Right. I think you're asking me because you want to tell me a story. No, No, I'm not. No, you've been fucking. I even tuned in.

I can't have my nipples touched. Yeah, like 252 and these things I. I zodiacs nightclub Lurgan. I've said this before, I'll say it again. I don't have my nipples don't protrude at all. So I don't know if it's a, if they're sensitive, whatever. I can't have these touch. Yeah, so I think if no one's ever like, like went near my nipples, but if they did, it would be essentially grabbing a hit, right? You know what I mean? Like they are. I do have. But would you be against that

affiliate? Yes. Right. Yeah, yeah. There's one thing I want you to touch in the bedroom, a butthole. Don't don't put yourself through. I would let a doctor. Freak out it Willy stuff. You're like, no, no, no. No, no, no. Let's get back. I'm already backed up. That's why I wouldn't let anywhere near it. Yeah, I wouldn't have a document. Have you had anything up your? Bum, I've had two colonoscopies. Have you today? I keep volunteering for medical research again. A loyalty. Card.

I've had two colonoscopies. Tell you what's the exam isn't. It doesn't get better. Yeah. You want to see the revision was done at home, putting the ball right up. Umm. Where's that GoPro? I'm sorry. At that, yeah, it doesn't. Like you think you've done it once, the next time won't be as bad. It's still always the worst thing you've ever done. I had a doctor like top my butt hole one time. What, like trying to pay for something?

It was a wee bit like, you know, when you're going through the toll, it's not working as all barriers up where you go, you just. Stand in Dundalk. You're you're are trying. To no shall pass path wind umm I was discussing but. So what? Why? What medical? Reasons at the time I'd had remember I had that Abscess with tailbone. So I had like surgeon with tailbone. I don't want yeah, discussing.

And I went to the doctor being I think I need to get like another surgery on this because it's like it's quite painful. So usually they would sit you down in your belly and just kind of go look in your bum crack and go, all right, yeah, whatever. This one doctor was like land your side and then lift your legs up. The worst? And then and. Then he just kind of like was tapping the best we thought might be sore and then give it away like pop like just real quick.

Well, like he was using like first generation iPod. Yeah, like, yeah, like it like a, like a grandparent using money. He's like. Yes, yes, with a big tax. Yeah, and then he just locked the phone real quick, like. Sorry I'm of you letting

zippers. Let me take a quick minute to tell you that this episode of the TV With Me podcast is sponsored by Better Help. Halloween let's us have fun with what scares us. But what about those fears that don't involve zombies and ghouls and ghosts and all?

For example, planning things when you let it slip a bit and then you got to start going back through a load of stuff and then you feel like it's getting on top of you and you knew that if you had just done at the time would have been easy. But you let it go and then it can be very overwhelming. From personal experience, therapy is a great tool for facing your fears and finding ways to overcome them.

Sometimes the scariest things not face interference in the 1st place and holding ourselves back. It's helpful for learning positive coping skills on how to set boundaries and empowers you to be the best version of yourself. And it's not just those who've experienced major trauma.

How far up does it go? It goes right in your stomach goes. In all your. Your boil your colon, which is the large intestine. Through every bit of it and you see it, you're watching it as if you want you're watching as it happen and you're half not you're. Can you be knocked out for that?

I think you can be yeah. Or I would. Take I would request. You're woozy, you're woozy. You don't know what's going on. What's you doing? All right, I, I was, I might have said this before, but I was like, you're like, you're really woozy, right? So you're, you're conscious, but you, you're a bit do lolly and they're just listening to like the radio right in the operating room. And also they're trying to make it as like comfortable normal as possible.

And the, the doctors talking to the nurse, they're all just talking as normal and you're kind of aware of it. And they had the Radio One and this was like 2 years ago. Ignition remix comes on and I thought, show them how relaxed you are and convince yourself you're relaxed. And it went, can I get it? I joined in the but the doctor told me after Ignition remix ended 15 minutes ago. Oh shit. I did the probably like an ad for like carpet, right? And I just chimed in with the

way they're like, it's OK mate. And there was a song to get a good chat with the guy at the very start and he was chatting away and I said, oh, you're from he said Palomina. And then there was a song on and it was JC Stewart who's been on the Paul before, same strong letter from here and he's from microfelt think and I said during the like toward the end of colonoscopy, I went and the JC shirts on and they just go.

I went he's from microfelt, like you and the guy was from Ballymena know all right, right, right. And I was like that. And then I stopped talking. But like, you just sit after it for a while and you just have like a bit of time. Did you start to feel normal again? Yeah. And then I went for a big fry after, but I still felt all like. Unveiled. Yeah. It's when you're lying on your side and then you watch the camera if you want come out.

I couldn't do that. It's like a reverse roller coaster, like you see, you see, you've done. The real adventures the night before. The prep you have to like empty. You have to drink what is it like 6 pints instead of? Yeah, this. It tastes like metal and it flushes you out, but then you've just got to like go to bed. I think he's he had one done recently. He was like, yeah, he was you. You go to sleepy and like surely this I can't be going to sleep yet. This isn't so you just you're

just awake all night. Put it this way, see, if I was doing it again, I'd sleep in the bath. Sorry I it doesn't sound I were one time did. You think you're flushed out? But it's just there's memories off on it. Yeah. You forget the song lyrics. Creek episodes are not coming out Pogs. Fucking miss her birthday. I remember 1 of the times I had I had like sex surgeries done on that tailbone thing. Yeah, because it's really hard to get at the heel up so. So what is it?

Like a spot? Like a bat. Essentially an ingrown her what happens is there. It's really disgusting, right? But the the herd like grows in so long that it ends up getting infected. But it creates like a like a track yeah, inside you. And then that can turn septic. So you can you can die from it like and I had. To die.

There's other ways to go, like, but I remember one time like waking up from the surgery and there was a very attractive nurse was pulling the breathing tube out of my throat, right And I was going. To get a breathing tube in. Because they knock you out. So you're like, have you? Have you fucking. Well, just pull something in my throat. I don't know what I was like, yeah. But I remember. I remember like, distinctly Dry Haven in this woman's face.

And then being like he and then like falling asleep with you and waking up. And because like, obviously it was on my bum. I was wearing those those net like mesh pants. Yeah. And I was like, she'd have these all my decking balls. Oh yeah, I'm looking at I'm a decking balls. They're going to roll a post office in the 80s. Well, the worst getting circumcised.

You know we talk about like getting comedians Willy, but just before you go on to your decking balls like shrink, you think about that the nerves compared to doing like a 7 minute gig for to getting sort like they've now it's never be. It's just not a true. Representation of who I am. Yeah, yeah. And I remember being like, couldn't feel anything and I knew they were just out and stuff and I was like, I just want to apologise.

This is not like this. I'd be like, if it wasn't weird, I would just send pictures to the whole medical stuff that were there that day. Yeah. And go just let you know this is. That's a fight. Yeah, yeah, I remember having that the time I went. I've done a bit of time about it, but I, I thought I had like something wrong with my Willy and it wasn't sexual because there hadn't been any. But it was like, there's something wrong here. And I. Was wrong.

I'll tell you the second I've been at myself too much. Sister and Goldman. So basically, yeah. So I basically chafed. Now you say then add yourself like can you? Give us some bottle down. It was like when you get a new PlayStation more than. Twice a day. I was going for yeah and a lot of free time like. Yeah, but sure it's not. Was it fun or were you just feel like clocking in the work that I feel like you could've gone for a walk. You couldn't. That's right, after that, our

long walk. And it was, yeah, the doctor just I was like, what is that? And he went was do you have a wank like yesterday? I went, it was when do you notice this? I went Wednesday morning. What was the problem with it was at the airtime. It was Mickey. You know that I said, look, let's just come clean. There was a bit of technical difficulties. You can't stop, you'll break it again. There was technical difficulties

there. And Dan said the Michael or it must be the a Tim. You know, the way they talk about all the technical stuff, must be the A Tim. Yeah. And then I said the Mickey. Well, they say Mickey. Said that was my favourite TV show in the 80's, the air team. Did it? And. Then we said we've never seen. It I've never. Seen it. You said the movie is good. Movie I'd like Neeson's in it. Neeson's in it, and Bradley Cooper's in it, and he's just very, very good looking. Yeah, he is.

He's in very good shape. But and look people and glad like you shouldn't judge other people. He's had a lot of work done these days at the minute thing. Is it a legit thing? Was just one? Was it just one photo? A little bit dodgy? I. Don't know, I don't know, but you sort of like you're a good looking. Man. Yeah. I was watching an episode of Always On in Philadelphia this

morning, right? And Brian Cranston was on us with a handlebar moustache and Ken along her and I was like, oh daddy, he looks fantastic for a man who's probably in the 60s and. Then you probably knock one out like. You'd knock and I was just back with Jimmy Armstrong, but he he looks great for a man because I think there's there's something I think quite cool about people that go, yes, I look like this because I'm fucking 60.

Can you give me? Another great example, Larry David. Larry David, perfect example. He owns his look. Yeah, there's something very like Kim Cattrall's another one. Hasn't had an awful lot of stuff done. And you go, you look, you look 60 odd. It's good. Yeah. Have you seen Pamela Anderson? She's got all the stuff taken out. Stolen. Beautiful. Stolen beautiful. I mean, don't get me wrong, I still love in big junkies. So. It does genuinely look like fantastic.

So I don't know when we lost footage there, but you went to the doctor, you had to get multiple surgeries. You said six surgeries on that. Over the course, about 10 years, yeah. And I'm totally fine now. Joe was weird about it. So basically what because they have the this is very disgusting. So if you're eating dinner, I'm sorry with this, but they have to leave that open. So it has the heel from autumn like so they have the like it has the heel from the inside

out. So the packet to stop healing over. So at one point, several times there was, it would, it's supposed to heal like this and my heal like that. And I had to cut this bed off and I thought they'd knock me out for this dinner when I was wide awake, like just took a scalpel and like just shaved flesh off my back. And I remember the the nurse, I was about 15. The nurse was like, I've seen grown men come in here, rugby players and soldiers and be crying. And you didn't make a fucking

peep. And I spat the top of the bed out and you handed it to like a chewed through a hospital bed. It was a fucking sword. But yeah. And then it was, I eventually got to a point where I just, it was almost healed and I just stopped going back to the doctor and started, started actually working out and it fucking sorted stuff out. Why were you get? Why do you get it? It just happens. I was just a hurry arse and I think at the time I was probably

14 or 15 was it? So I was, I was actually doing a lot of Taekwondo. So I think I'd have been sweating quite a bit and don't. And then yeah. And then doing like setups on a wooden floor in a fucking church hall. You do, Rocket, and I was. Blue belt. I have, I have a horrible bit of body hair because it's like 1 little strip. I've like more body hair than people would think, but I had this like horrible strip at the bottom of my back and it's just

like this. It's just like a rectangle of it and it's gross. I'd like to not have. I have a thing I had never noticed it before but I have not loads but I'm starting to get like old man like long black puby looking hairs or like around my back. Right. And I'm like, get them out.

But how are you seeing them? Just posing the Myrtle, I think it was John was I was I was taking a photo of the tattoo I have on my back to send the tattoo artist because I want to cover it up and then zoomed in and was like what the fuck? Oh yeah, we like blue one. We. Dragon thing, yeah. Why you Why would you want to cover up the WE Dragon? Normally show I just that's cool. It's it's just sense of got a.

Bigger dragon. It's fucking but it's massive now because I'm fat as fuck and I'm like I may as well just get something around this to cover up the fact that it was a 20 LB tattoo when I was drunk. Oh, what is you got that tattoo now? 19 I think. Yeah, I remember you were like the comedian had tattoos. Then I was like for this game, making Bartlett 2. Years 2 tattoos that. Is a waste. Cost £100. Yeah, it's not good, is it? I want to get more tattoos again.

Me too. Two more than I'm done. Yeah, I want to get something between my Joker Cardinal Karate Kid 137 to say that out loud. Would you? Where would you go? Would you go arms or would you go? I think it might get one in the inside of my wrist there. Or is that kind of like, is that like Mumsy I? Don't think so. I just always feel like that. That freaks me out because you can see the veins. Do you know? I'm also I want to get some more tattoo.

It'll be one of the media areas. Right, right, right. Yeah. Do you know what I mean? It's a name of your rap group, isn't? Media area, Yeah, yeah. I think I'd like to get one there and then I want to get one and it's like a light toast thing, right? But I don't know where because what I can like about mine is they're not dead obvious. Yeah. So like, I don't want to get it on my arm. I don't think I don't want to get him a torso so I might just get on my other.

Your arms were it's like above T-shirt level. It's never really a problem. Should I mean? But then I I, I'll probably start when I get 40. I'm just going to wear vests. Just wear stringers like. Well, that's why you'll get more tattoos. Yeah, yeah. Would you like it if I just came a real tough, like real night? These tough guy? You are pretty tough. Donna's man. Yeah, I'd very much, I'd very much enjoy.

If I've recently bought a Cobra K tank top, then I'm going to wear my holidays ward box one day as well. You don't just tell me. The boys in the gym, really. I go there for three weeks. That's hilarious that that's like I'm I'm wearing my holidays to a strict where you on Tenerife, Australia when you when you go. 3rd of November so the death material finishes. Oh, that's nice. Straight, straight away. Isn't it three weeks of sun just to top it up? And what?

Talk me through the flight out. Are we going to? Are you flying from Dublin? Yeah. And is it going to be? I'm disgusted, Jim. Why No. Don't tell me you're flying. No, Mick. Mick, you can't do. I will not let you do. This one waterfront this year, it didn't sell out, so. Dan I. Have to be a normal. You'd gofundme.com start a campaign. We are back business, don't get wrong. Oh yeah.

But yeah, flat out economy. But it's fine because I've done I've, I've, I've nailed it. I've picked leg room. There's no pram near it, so there's no babies and there's a window and I have been picked. So I'm gambling with That's a couple. You could have a 2 seater. Yeah, I'll get the window. You won't window. And realistically, when there's free booze on a flight like that, you can. How long is it? Perth? Yeah. So that's a shorter one. 20 hours I think in total.

So actually double dough has seven. Yeah. And then dough had a Perth 11. Oh here. So it's not that bad. That's fine. It's it's the other side. We do the. New Zealand, Yeah, the New Zealand one. What's New Zealand? Did you fly from here to New Zealand? Did you? Go when? The one hours just to the Middle East and then a seven. Fuck yeah. Oh yeah, no, that'll be as business all the way. That was awful.

Umm So what I'm saying is when you get to Dublin, what is Mickey Bartlett that we know your system on the flight, but I want to know your airport plan because I have weird airport. By Dublin airport I tend to just walk around us until it gets cold because it's always that busy. Right. Umm. You won't buy snackies for the plane or anything. Sometimes yelled by we think of Wang. Flight to Australia. Yeah, that's all you need. But are you happy with whatever food they serve up?

Are you please like you'll be like, yeah, no problem, you can eat. That most of the time, yeah, but a lot of time we'll be fucking hammered anyways. Now what I'm saying is when you get like and when you get to the Middle East airport, are you are you just going straight to the gate or are you having a meeting? Noel, book the flights usually book it where you've only got about two and a half, three hours of a layover. Right, Because it just adds into the the time you're going to be

uncomfortable and stinky. Yeah. So I'll tell the just. Yeah, I'll, I'll. I'll go look at watches. I left them approached by one of the men in Doha. I'll probably buy one out of you. Buy a like this. Yeah, I've done a couple. Like I'll just buy a Ouija shock. Just like. Oh, yeah. Thank you. You don't have to. Sorry about the War on Terror. But this makes it but there's 70. Times. I am. I'm weird with that. Like very weird with airport

trouble. If I'm if I'm taking your flight, I'm bringing a packed lunch for the flight. Right. But both legs of it. Right, so I can't perceive. Fun. I mean, that's not a media, that's maybe a cheese sandwich or something. You're not having meat. My meat will only be for the first leg of the flight. Yeah right. Not mental I but I will have other stuff like a load of pancakes and we better we talk

about almond butter meat. But I know in Dublin airport I get my I get a wee thing here and then this bit of it I get there. So I know, just let me cook. You know what I mean? Explain the making that you won't. If you were going to the airport together, Shane won't stay with you. Oh, see, if you're like just going to sit here, I'll meet you at the gate. Perfectly fine. I've we things. I get I am very like, I don't like to be talking to anybody right.

If I've if I've been on holidays with a partner or family, whatever, I'm like I can happily walk around here, listen to my headphones. Yep, I just I'll go look at a window or something. The idea of sitting here feeling all excited fucking drives me nuts. Right. No, I'm working like I I might even in Dublin Airport. You know, the way you can walk between Terminal 1 Terminal. Two a couple times. But I'm, I might need, I go, there's only a Starbucks in this

one. So I've got to go get my almond milk for tea on the plane over here. So I'm working like until I get on that plane and then I'll get all my food out and I'm, I'm delighted. Like, I also spend a lot of time just judging people in airports. Ah yeah, yeah, I'll do an awful lot of like. Yeah. Have you ever flown before? Like people who don't know? Yeah. Or do I have to get these not? Even that, sometimes I'll judge what they're wearing on the plane.

I'm like, I know that looks comfy, but it feels comfy but it doesn't look great. I've started getting an addiction. You're tagged into that, Sandra. I started getting an addiction on her and Willie Tease, the only one who knows about it and he's I feel like he should be doing more to stop me doing it. Percy pigs.

Percy pigs full packet of Perses in the gob as soon as we land anyway, because there's always in the airport, there's a wee M&S guy packet of Perses. And even if it's a big, I want the wee packet. And see, now I'm even talking about we Perses. You turn into we Perses. Maybe we might sit here getting all juicy. I love these Perses. Do you know why I eat Persies? My musket, no juice. How do you eat Persies? I'm not a fan. There's I said I'm not a fan.

I always look at them and think I don't like them and I have one go fuck, they are nice. Should you know what the one people go to do? You want I do right? I think it's weird when people just like either eat at all, like just put it in as is or bite bits off. What I do is I grab the Persy, push in between the ears, down the middle of the face, right? So I fold it and then fold it again. So it's like a weak calzone, Percy. And I like that and I love them.

I do you know what I think I. Get all like. Do you ever see somebody eat a Malteser in two bites? No, I didn't have. Weird. I'm like stop that. Yeah. You take the bag and you pour until you can't break and then you just start trying. I remember. Yeah, and obviously I can't beat Maltesers as you know, but for. Real Maltesers. I can't have milk, Mickey, you know this. But even Maltesers like. What do you think makes Maltesers fine?

People in Malta. I I've heard about people getting a big bag of Maltesers or minstrels more than the popcorn. It's divine. That not like. Giant chocolate buttons and popcorn. Oh, and I don't normally like salt and popcorn, but if you throw a bit of chocolate into it, that's a that's a good combination. But do you not buy airport snacks and then like you have

them on the plane or? Like I'll maybe get a wee wee so much we have a cheese, but I find because I because I do drink on the planes to try and sleep, I honestly feel like I bloat so much that I'm like I can't even put any food in here and then spend a day and a half fart when I get off right. You get gassy after a long flights. No, I don't notice. Not that I notice. I definitely get very, very, very gassy. What house tour life? She's so tired.

No. That was a real problem. For you, yeah, well, it's the slave labour that really upset. It's when they arrive and you go, fuck, they're not that nice and you go, I was a toddler, made that. I can't really complain. So we'll just stick with Converse. That's what I call my fans, by

the way. Toddlers. Oh. Converse here. That is good. It is. That's pretty good. Yeah, I should start to end that should it do toddlers. So it's converse now. Yeah, yeah, I have a lot of converse actually. Yeah, yeah, you're always big converse. Yeah, as always said that about you, it's. Because I've got like skinny leg, I can't wear shoes like that. What? Would you describe these As for the audio listeners? Just big, massive. Your feet are fucking huge.

Actually, the more you look at them, you're like, Jesus Christ, big chunky. Trainers. Big chunky, Yeah. Because because I'm already a chunky boy of skinny legs. So like, I do like a high top, Yeah, but I've also got 10 and two feet. So when I wear high tops, people go. You look like you're like a Penguin walk. Yeah. Kind of thing going on, Yeah. Speaking of you watch, Dave told me to start watching the Penguin. I haven't yet. I also I haven't had a fucking minute this tour.

I. Haven't had a minute. Really. But I haven't like, like I've, I've, I'm down to watch that. I was trying to watch that Lord of the Rings prequel thing. Yeah. And I just can't get into it. Jordan, it looks like for me it's too much. It's an awful lot. It's too too many characters, yes, and they're all called Flamble. Can I tell you what I'm watching? The. I'm watching one of the best TV shows I've seen in a long time. At the minute the offer, it's on Amazon Prime.

Phenomenal, Mickey. Why on a basic Prime subscription, we've got Miles Teller? It's all good, it's on basic prime now, but I actually paid for the paramount thing when it first came out. It's. About the me, it's about how they got the Godfather made. Yeah, and and the the events of the Megan of the Godfather sort of twin with the Godfather you. And I'm going to watch it. After godfather, the godfather I was. I watched all three of them the other week ago. I have no time when.

You watch the third. I don't let me watch a. Trilogy. No, the trilogy of the longest movies of all time. They keep it on Amazon. There's still an intermission in the second one. Now do you do a Brando? I do a great Brando can we see it now? You have a degree, right? So I don't want to like, I want to respect this. And this is acting. So I'm trying to think what we he's like, they come to my house. The damn my daughter's wedding and you asked me to do murder.

I asked for justice. Well, that is not justice. Your daughter's still alive. That's really, really good. Like it's actually like, I want to like have a laugh, but that's really good. I. Can even do the job here. That's what I'm saying. That's a Jim Carrey like sometimes when he changes his face to do. Yeah, becomes a whole different thing. You become Brandon. Yeah, that's really good. I would love to be. What I can do, I can do. Everyone can do. Robert Deniro's face. Yeah.

And I can do the quote. Who are you talking to? Was that meant for me? I'm sorry, I didn't hear what you said. You were talking to someone. Are you conversion with more? I'm a fucking Raging Bull. Who did you say that to? That's very good. Have you ever seen Alec Baldwin doing impressions of Al Pacino? But he does all the versions of them. No. So he does put like young Pacino where he kind of sounds like he's. Yeah. He's like, I'll put one in your

back. Yeah. And then it like it becomes like Texan, then right up to like Hoo ha, like Hoo ha, he got a great ass. The guy who plays Pacino in the offer is phenomenal. Phenomenal. Oh my God. Yeah, the guy. I love the dude. I always forget his name and he's one of those actors that nobody can remember his name. He plays the Paramount boss, yeah. A booby like he's always going to run your nose and taking coke. He is absolutely bold. He is phenomenal. He's English, is he? Yeah.

He's brilliant. He's absolutely great. I. Love that movie. You know what it makes you want to do? Make something. Yeah, it also makes me want to just wear flowers. Yeah, and a flowery shirt and a cowboy belt. You. You could. I'm too much a belly. If I could lose me a wee bit of. We had a dress like a vintage. But it's like we're talking about Larry David and people like that. Yeah. You pick a look and you go, this is the way I dress, is the way I look. People do you.

Used to. Do you think will you ever change your look again as we get older? Or do you think we dress like this forever to the mean? Great question. I often thought that whenever, like when baggy jeans were a thing like FUBU jeans. You said you'll never. Like I'll be wearing these. I'm 50 like. Yeah, well, here's the thing. We're wearing jeans. People don't wear jeans as much anymore at all. It's. Because they don't make jeans as good as they used to.

You're right, I've always said. I'm I'm Brian, loyal to Levi's. Levi's. I'm a Levi's guy. I'm a hard, but I'm Levi's. I have one person but I want to but. Part of me thinks, am I dressing too young? I say that I'm wearing a jumper from the famine at the minute as we run. Hitler's haircut. Pardon what haircut I? Didn't say anything. My fear. You look like the famine fear. You look like if Hitler was blended into The Dubliners. In Jublin's first city,

physicals are so pretty. Won't come out You black in town. Wouldn't you want to fight me like some man? I'll tell them out when I go home. Won't Chris just hold me? Yeah. No, no, that's that's it's like how much? Cars don't tank them to come. Do you know? What's the weird things happen to me as as very strange every time I go over the border? I'm not a political person, right?

I wouldn't consider myself a Catholic at all, and I wouldn't even consider myself Irish. But there is something that happens to me if I hear any kind of like boron starting, I'm like, where are they? Oh, oh, an English bastard. It's very odd. That the, So a lot of traditional Irish music was very, a lot of loyalist guys were very, very ended up. I've heard about that being

spoken before. And it's, it's it like you, you would have had like, I remember there was like a documentary or something and I saw it on YouTube and there was like AX loyalist prisoner guy. And he's like, we loved that. Like that's what we were listening. They were listening to the doublers they were listening to because they identified with the music. Yeah. Like the rebellious. Culture. I was meeting, like, a couple of former British soldiers at a wedding one time.

So it was an Irish girl was marrying an English guy. And they played a couple of, like, sitcom. Yeah. But yeah, they played a couple of, like, mad trad songs. And one of the guys had been here during the dark days and he was. I fuck you. Love this one. Yeah. But the mute but I'd. Love to see an orange band and I fucking like a fly band do a mash up. How fucking great would it be like? Yeah, great boys. Umm, but I think. Up the rabbit with the bouncy

bouncy. I think it's it's the storytelling of it. Yeah. Is it like Ryan Mcmullen's version of St to New York? It's fucking beautiful. And here I'll say this to see the sash. A banger. Fucking banger. It's almost beautiful. You said that like a commercial radio DJ. This one's a banger. Hear me now. Shaggy comes in the middle of it. It wasn't me, Shaggy. Doesn't speak with that voice, do you know that? Really. Shaggy just speaks like any American guy.

Sean DePaul speaks like that, though. Oh, why? He's full blown Tom Hanks the song Shaggy. Was in the military and that that that was him doing an impression of. Somebody in the Mars drill? Sergeant did. You try to talk to the Mars Bar. There was a drill Sergeant taught like Shaggy. That's no. That'll be a very, very interesting army. That was just the way the drill Sergeant spoke, and Shaggy was doing an impression to him. And then I think she's making

music. And then he just did like a verse like that. They're like, make people laugh or make himself laugh. And then people were like, that sounds class most all over, all over. Drop and give me tear. What am I doing? That's something that Lord of the Rings I. Was definitely a muppet that no one's heard. Of Angel was such a great song. Angel was a great song. And then you hear the old version and you go, I didn't know that was a. Cover is it?

I didn't know it was. Angel in The Morning, Call me Angel. You know it was a banger back in the day. Remember Sean DePaul in Blue Cantrell? Breathe, Let it breathe video and then that's a sample of The Watcher by Doctor Dre. So it is. Or yeah, Watcher, Yeah. Watch. That wasn't a good album.

I don't think there's been no. I haven't listened to much since that, but 2001. Right, you're walking into a club and we're having a nostalgia night and I want 3 songs from back in the day that are going to make you feel a certain way. I'll tell you this right now and I've forgot about it. Take me back for a long time. Anything that Timberland was on, So what? About like the way I'm are. Yeah, we're like the Justin Timberlake stuff. Nelly Furtado, do you remember?

He did Crimea river like. No, but I mean like, I want you to walk into the club and just get that feeling of like, oh. Be the sash. Fuck, I don't know. Do you know what you want for me is a nice corners push to feeling. Or some no tomorrow. Never that one, yeah. That's a great song. Bright idea. That was another one. There something. Yeah. Is my brother. I get them in the Go team. Is it the Go team? Who? OK Go? The ones that had the mod

videos. Yeah. The songs were never as good as your videos. And Mr Brightside, every time it's become, it's become a party of itself now, yes. But every fucking time I hear that when I'm out I'm like. Trying to think of another Usher, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. R Kelly don't like his music, but his person. I believe I can fly. You walk into the club, it's popping off. I use the Robert. I love loads of songs. I yeah, even some of the not even well known.

Even tell there was only that in the ignition. The only two I can think of. I believe I can fly turn back time. Don't know. If I could turn. Cher. Turn back the hands of time. Oh yeah, I bet you wish you could know. Oh, why? Yeah, but you? Wouldn't piss on you. I think he's not much of A serious child. He's not much of A serious pervert. If you went back in time, he just enjoyed doing it all. Yeah. Yeah, I wish. I wish you could turn back the hands of times where you'd be

younger. I'll start. Yeah, move your body like a snake or same girl with Usher. Please tell me you know this song. It's like such a fun song. It's our Kelly and Usher, right? And it's a duet and there are Kelly's telling Usher, but this girl he's met. And then I'm sure it's like, hold on a second, we've been seeing the same girl. Shit. It's such a fun song. I. Haven't heard it but it's really good. Nelly remember whatever he was fucking. Yeah, Hot in here would always

go off. Yeah, my favourite Nelly song. Country Grammar. Country grammar is fucking sublime. And ride with me. Yeah, ride with me. That's another one if it's in the club. I'm fucking put it in. Yeah, put it in. And then I read immediately remix into rolling my limp biscuit and that's me taking the top off. See anything about a different clot? I think about Sky. Did you ever go to Sky? I was in Belfast, R&B type club Fossy. What was Sky Wednesday night?

Yeah, I think it was a. Where was Sky located? Welling where the Wellington was from. What is it? Rusty Saddle. Is it all right? I was great. It was great. I was always in rain, but I don't remember anything music because it was that was just where you went when you're already statement. That for some reason reminds me of push the feeling on night crawlers but. It also reminds me of the Lol wrap party. Yes, we give a speech that nobody asked for. Remember, No, you don't

remember. I started giving a speech and then me and you just started and everyone was loving it. Remember another party one time in Derry, we were during break, stood up in the seat and tried to make a speech and everyone was like. I think that's a party we got. Yeah, I think that's why we got. Yeah, it's probably why I slept. In the car, 10 minutes later, we're sleeping in the in the

car. I remember, yeah, I remember that wrap party and you carry in me through the streets of Cathedral Quarter. That was fun. It was good grub at that. There was put on a bit of a spread there. Was a bit of a spread where we go to, what do you call it, Muriel's first time ever had a Dark and Stormy. Remember, that was the first time there was money for nice drinks. She was on the trump got in trouble with no what that. Knows Paul Daniels. Trump. Paul Daniels. Oh my God, in half.

Do what I've been watching This is my wife Debbie McGee while. He's standing in the Poland they made himself disappear. Couldn't imagine himself back to life anyway, he's fully dead. The coffins in two bits. But he was small, so it's probably just like. Imagine being that fucking pulling mass cards. From normal people, no. There will be loads of magicians I imagine. I try I went for a poem it. Wasn't. Great. It wasn't great, was it? Was my fault I was talking over though?

Yeah, yeah. No, but that's fine. But you, you were in the middle. But you did well, don't you? Beat yourself some minute. Yeah, there's some. There's legs. Something Yeah. Umm, I want to talk to you about lunch. Yes. Are you are you doing this today? Let's do lunch. Do. You want? I'm really in the mood for steak and eggs. I fancy I want to be eggs Benny, but I need to be eggs Benny

anywhere. But that feels like a mob guy thing that you know, that's because I've been watching the offer steak and eggs in the morning sort of thing. You know what else you watching at the minute? Give us, give us another. Make your butter. Honestly, you know what, like when I get back from gigs, the minute I'm playing, I'm playing a game the PlayStation called There's Gone. Yeah, no time the minute though. Yeah, no, but it's like. Godfather Trilogy.

But you don't get back at night. You're just like, I can't go to sleep it. Yeah, I'd be too wired up to go to sleep, right. And that's a zombie game with your your guy on a motorbike driver and kill zombies. It helps you sleep, but then you lie in bed like. Fuck I I have not been sleeping great recently. Which is I normally hit the pillow when I go to sleep. My wife goes listen to the audio book or something. Got Matthew Mcconaughey's one. I don't know whether it's

brilliant or shit. But it's because he because he's reading it. Because he's reading that. It's great, but nothing in it could have happened the way he says it did. Yeah. No, I reckon I. Listen to it though. No, I've heard him talk about it. I've also heard about him and Woody Harrelson being. Brother, I think if Matthew McConaughey was reading me a book, I'd sleep all night, all night, all night.

But but here's the thing. Yeah, but he's not captivating that you don't want to go to sleep. Yeah, because you want to hear the next thing he's going to say. I could. Read you the phone book and you'd be like fucking this class but. Every story in it about, and I'm only like an hour into it. I think it's 7 hours all thing. The great green lights. And that's what it's called.

And every story couldn't possibly have happened the way he said it because it has a perfect, it's a perfect story with an amazing ending. And that's every story. And he's talking about his dad challenging his brothers. You know, if you want to be the man of the house and fighting each other with 2 by 4, you know, everything's a bit like it's all movie. But they are Texans, aren't they? Yeah, you know, but I don't, I, I don't know whether it's a waste of my time.

I don't know. I don't know whether it's brilliant or terrible. I'll decide at the end. Sometimes I'll might go with movies. I go, a movie was brilliant, and then I think of it and go that was awful. Yeah. I think everything is brilliant at the time. Yeah, I've I've heard the flip side where I've thought movies are shit and then of I think maybe what happens is other people like it, I go, Oh no, you're right, I was wrong. Here, watch man. I watch the watch man.

And I went. I was the biggest pile of shit and people go but see it as a dark comedy and I don't know what that means and I go. That's a bit fucking. It's like next Friday. It's dark comedy, Bad boys. We are. And I love watching and I but I was to see the first time I watched that, I was like, I fucking hit the. American cycle. I was like, I don't know. And then I watched someone goes watch it again and I didn't. When it's one of the best, yeah.

There are there are Disney times, some movies, just you're just not in the mood for it. Yeah. Do you watch it back and go? This is actually fucking sublime. Like like if one of your parents had died, you wouldn't want to put on like good burger. What? Like, I just mean there's certain moods. You wouldn't be certain films that wouldn't match the mood. Yeah, one of my parents I would immediately put on walk hard because that would cheer you up no matter what. Happens, right?

But then do you want to be giggling? You just I think. Burger may be the most disrespectful movie to watch an hour after apparent days. An hour, I mean, it would take a day or two before it. There's a lot to do, I imagine, for an undertaker. Tell people. That. Was that I know sorry, when I was fucking started watching Fast Furious. That'll be a disrespectful. That will be disrespectful. We're family.

I like the tuna here. You ever seen like your funeral and like ever hear a song and you go, this is like, this wasn't thought through. I know of a guy who went if you know one time and the the lowered the grave or the coffin into the. Grind. No, I was in the fucking it was a crematorium. So to do that like the the curtain goes across and the played the Hovis like the breads song which I can't remember. I don't know. It was from the advert. Yeah, it's a classical piece of music.

Yeah, brass bands. No, it's probably one of the situations where they go, oh, this is a classical piece of music, but everybody there was like, it's funny that he's been lowered down into a toaster. Yeah. Yeah, I want the Brennan's Brit today. Today, just as you know, today's bread today, Mr Bread said to me. I want Fred. There's no bread I want. They say it's over, It's not all over. Yeah, I want Gillette. The best a man can get. He was the best mom.

I went wow, bought a phone home. Maybe she's born with it. Maybe it's me believe. I'm loving it. Just all. Just a fucking yeah, Yeah. I don't want you. To do to do to. Work all day. All the drink driving ones. There was a time what was the what was the what was the fucking? Do you remember the really famous ad in The Troubles with a guy shoots at the bar? And the cat's in the bridle, in the silver spoon. Battle of the song too. For not, you talk about a story in a song. Oh my God, yeah.

He doesn't want to turn out to be his dad and then all the sudden. That was a good three to four minute long Albert as well. Yeah, Yeah, yeah, yeah. That that the Caroin. There was a one to me and Katie, the pub quiz during COVID for the podcast. And one of the questions was what was the song over that advert? And then jokingly, he said Papa's got a brand new bag, right? And I fucking lost my mind because there's a better than it were. The sun picks up the same sort

of sports bag. So then I it's probably disrespectful, but I cut Papa's got a brand new bag over the top of the ad, but I did it in time that whatever goes like. I was AI was a Wilder. Was. Because I think it probably worked and put some people off paramilitary for some people probably looked at it went. You get a free goal. That's cool. Yeah, you know, so probably the wrong effect. I think, yeah, anyone that couldn't grow a moustache was like, I wouldn't, wouldn't take me.

Yeah, I have any moustache time down, Yeah. I don't know. I give up my moustache too early. I only give a three months. Three months? No, it's like 1 one month, so maybe I look back at it and they go some there. It didn't look bad, it just wasn't a full moustache. That's all I need, but do you think it ever would have got like I also? Think it doesn't. Do you? I think I mean this with the most like the the most. You told me that.

If you're the fam, I was the famine if you're a minute ago. So what do you mean respectfully? You have beautiful skin. The reason I have a beard is because I have a lot of chins going on and some acne scars, right? You. Why would you cover that up? I also don't understand why you wear top or pants because I've seen you really like. I want you to know that if I look like you had be here in the fucking Burbuff, I only have shoes on because your feet are

gorgeous too. No, All of this is hide, no. Right. The fate The fate your. Feet are great, you've nice fate. I have a horrible baby, my baby told Carl in Everyone's Baby. It gets cute though. They're just like. Mine Carl out like what's where we're going? Do you have your tours coming in? But when will this quite done? And like 2. Weeks towards 2020. Third, probably.

This is like in the movie where you go, I'm going to go to Hawaii, get get me a beach shack and everything and then they want. To like, yeah, I think, yeah, yeah, I think that could be it. Yeah, you're like, I'm going to go to Australia and set up a set up. Just my hand walking through a wheat field. And the cat's in the cradle in the.

Henry Yeah, another couple ads to see a couple.

Ads we get out of the. Road this is the end of the pub but we're doing like an actual we bet at the end yeah, so these don't count, but. Which? I love Doctor Pepper, what's the worst to get help? That was a fucking screamer. Or not, and I don't know right now, I might be getting things mixed up. It might be just it might be just the timing of the releases. But for some reason, Umbop by Hanson and Sunny Delight go hand and hand me. How does Sunny to let go?

Had some say I don't know if it's if Umbop was in the ad or if I was drinking Sunny Delight the first time I saw Hanson. Well, can I tell you there's nothing more of a drink that would accompany a song and a big butt chug of a bottle of Sunny Day when you're listening? To him, it was also a very confusing time because I was like, I fancy those three girls and I don't know if this is Juice, yeah, or Diesel. Right there still sell something like?

I think you sell by it and some was there a rumour that somebody turned orange from drinking that much of it and that's what they had to stop selling? It don't know.
