The Public Nuisance. Sean McCullough, Welcome to this episode of the Public Nuisance podcast Coming to you from here, Killin' Studios, One of my sponsors. Beautiful set-up, Andrew. What do you think?
Speaker 2:Unbelievable, so clean, so clean, fresh. Never thought Ballyclare would be this clean.
Speaker 1:First time ever in Ballyclare. I know it was my first time when I first came here yeah it's small. What do you think of it so far? What do I?
Speaker 2:think of it. It's a place. It's a place, it exists. That's nice. Sorry, the people in the coffee shop were lovely, weren't they? Yeah, they gave me a loyalty card yeah, and five stamps as well, and you only bought two coffees. Something going on there like that's what people at Ballyclare are like dodgy as fuck, it's the first sign first sign of something going wrong. Two minutes later they'll be up here going hey, I got a bag. Can you carry a bag for me on a flight to Columbia?
Speaker 1:fucks sake, I'll be hitting the headlines yeah, boxer Sean McCabe smuggling coffee beans out of.
Speaker 2:Columbia into Ballyclare. Local gangs are furious oh fucking weird bitch.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's good to see you. Good to see you.
Speaker 2:I normally see you on telly or something fighting or trying to get a fight on Instagram. I know Calling out boxers on Instagram. No one wants to have it. Do they ever reply, these people? You?
Speaker 1:call out, no one wants to have it. Do they ever reply, these people you call out? They just fucking blank it. I think my last fight, obviously, was last April, which was a long time ago, and he just blanks me now.
Speaker 2:He just I think he blanks you Because he knows he has me blanked Because you battered him like yeah, and the judges. But is it when you're on a way, it's like when you know You're playing away from home, you kind of not just have to win, but you have to win, win a bit extra you have to win.
Speaker 1:Well, yeah, you're probably starting to fit. You're probably a round or two down. Why is that? I don't know. Home favourite, I suppose, judging like the judges are probably from America or in around that, and they've probably got ties with his promotional company, golden Boy, as well. So it's just boxing's the worst shit it's a racket, isn't? It. There's an old saying. We say I love the sport, but I hate the game.
Speaker 2:Yeah, that's what it is so what's the plan with you now? Because obviously are you. Would you not get out to Saudi Arabia with all the lads out there.
Speaker 1:I would love to have you got anything? No, I was trying to get on that show on the 1st of March in the SSE yeah, lewis Cracker and Paddy Donovan, but I can't get a good enough fight to get on it. Like there's no real 50-50 fights in the UK for me at the minute Because they're either all fighting or they don't want to fight. So I'm probably going to have to rebuild again.
Speaker 2:When you say rebuild, would you not change ways?
Speaker 1:I would, but again would you go up?
Speaker 2:would you go?
Speaker 1:up. I couldn't go down, I'd done it before.
Speaker 2:No, you can't go down, man, you'd be a stick. The wife would leave you. The wife would leave you. She'd leave me. Tell her to get out of my DMs anyway.
Speaker 1:I have a bone to pick where I sit. I watched your documentary you know the one you did in Asqu? Yeah, he was years ago. It was good, wasn't?
Speaker 2:it was your wife pregnant at the time. She was pregnant. Your son is the bulb off you like. He's four now. He's good crack isn't he?
Speaker 1:he's good crack, he's good crack. Yes, everyone loves him everyone wants him.
Speaker 2:He's a nice kid.
Speaker 1:He looks like you everyone wants me to make a social media page for him.
Speaker 2:He's good crack sometimes you get a kid listen, he could. If your son took up boxing, how would you feel?
Speaker 1:I want him to, would you, just for discipline? I don't want him to do it as a as a If you're not a part, that's all about disciplining him yourself as part of your job as a parent?
Speaker 2:no.
Speaker 1:I didn't.
Speaker 2:I know You're a boxer and your son? You've no discipline with your child. I know.
Speaker 1:I can't discipline him. He just doesn't listen to a word I say kids don't and then there's a family. You can't just slap kids in public, but sometimes you need to slap?
Speaker 2:do you like to slap his bum or something? Do you threaten them? When I was growing up, I was getting threatened. I get the whole classic Irish one, the Irish mammy one which everyone knows, but it's you. Wait until he your father comes home.
Speaker 1:That's why I take it and I shit myself. Yeah, it doesn't work, no more. The kids aren't afraid of their fathers, no more no, no, they have some sort of, I don't even know, half of them in west belfast, don't know where their father is.
Speaker 2:They have a helpline ready on their phone.
Speaker 1:I know here, I know I'm feeling very insecure.
Speaker 2:I'm not hanging on a phone now you can't hit kids. This is clarified. But all good yeah.
Speaker 1:All good, you're a very busy man these days, man, yeah, I haven't seen you in ages. I feel like I haven't seen you in a while, didn't?
Speaker 2:you come to the arena with Shane. I did. You were brilliant. Thank you, you were very good. Just say that again, you were very good.
Speaker 1:Thank you, just keep saying that again. Maybe next time you'll be the main.
Speaker 2:I'm actually going to be doing hopefully doing an arena soon- like because yeah when I was in the career.
Speaker 1:Like obviously, do you know the difference, though? I really, really enjoyed about the that arena show for boxing. It'd be empty until like the last two feats, whereas the arena was just packed out from the get go. No one left their seats to go get drinks. Everyone's just started watching that and I feel like the support was there from the beginning for everyone. Yourself, william, she and everyone all got the same support. Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 2:yeah, oh, it's brilliant I mean like I started the comedy in england and like, don't get me wrong, you know I still go over there. I'm over there most of February, really now at the weekends, doing all my shows. I probably do more shows outside of Ireland.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:I probably do more shows in the UK, over in England and Scotland, than I do in this whole island. Do you prefer it? Well, you see, I started over there, so I have a lot of my bases over there still Now. Obviously, I live over here and do the radio and q radio in the mornings I have to. The q radio kind of allows me not to take on certain work because I'm committed to the radio, you see. So it's. It's a strange one.
Speaker 2:I mean, you can be, you gotta have a fine line of being, but being too available as a comedian as well I think like, for example, I'm I've sold out the opera house this week and I think I could have put a second one on, but I thought against it. And it wasn't because I'm trying to oh, let's just put it on take as many much money as we can. It's not about that. It's about saying, look, I'm only going to do one and that's it. There's more demand then?
Speaker 2:yeah, it's like it's also about yeah, and I want to go off then and take good break and then write the next show because I still think I have my best show in me. Like you know, it's like you might think of your best fight in you. Like, yeah, you know you might think like, oh, I've got, I know I've got.
Speaker 2:The best is still to come for me, like I'm getting more streetwise with every fight, like with every tour I do like more I'm getting more experience and, like you know, I've been doing this 18 years like, and I've been doing this a long time has to be an arena show in your house well, I think there is. Yeah, I think it's, it's coming. But I also somebody said to me would you do an arena show? Would you do three or four opera houses? And I was like I'd actually prefer the opera houses because I actually like, I like gigging if you do it in an arena it's over in is brilliant, whereas I've only got one.
Speaker 1:And if you don't get it right, Do you think the audience is different between the UK and here?
Speaker 2:Yeah, oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, like I mean I think I think people who come from working class cities, working class places are always like and when I say working class, I mean I don't really know what I mean by that, but I'm talking about like Liverpool.
Speaker 1:Liverpool, glasgow, belfast, dublin, belfast, like, fucking like the people are just brilliant. There's a lot of similarities in width and like, in terms of like how we even speak and what we find funny. I believe it's like similar.
Speaker 2:And like I come from a background you know I did minimum wage jobs most of my life until I became a full-time comedian. And like, there's times when you start off doing comedy like you do a boxing like. And like there's times when you start off doing comedy like you do a boxing like you know, I think my first year, my first two years of comedy I was after doing it I was eight grand in debt. People were like what are you doing? I think I can get it right. You've got to invest in yourself as well. Like you know, with boxing like you're paying for training camps.
Speaker 2:I'm just throwing the tongue over, I forget. Yeah, starting out like you need sponsors. You're asking people. I sponsored emmet core there, he's a cage, he's an mma cage fighter, right, the core brothers. I went up to the cage gladiators up in north belfast, there a few months ago and I I sponsored them, you know, for training camp or whatever. Whatever, it's a big help, yeah. And then the fuckers were in holland in the following week and I went. Who fucking paid for that? No, but they were nice kids and I can understand because I've seen it when I was starting out, and I think boxing is a much more difficult environment when you're starting out than comedy is do you know what I mean?
Speaker 2:yeah, because, like with comedy, you just turn up and you know.
Speaker 1:But you guys, you have to. I think, like the thing is with boxing, you have to be coming from a big pedigree already. Yeah before you turn professional amateur, a successful amateur career.
Speaker 2:But didn't Frampton not have an amazing amateur career?
Speaker 1:he had a good amateur career until a certain point he won like he was an international boxer, put it that way, which means he represented Ireland and the like. He was very likely to go to the Olympics. He was good enough to go to the Olympics.
Speaker 1:So Brian McGuigan obviously seen this in him and approached him before he got the opportunity to go to the Olympics sold him the dream, turned him professional and in fairness to the McGuigans, I know they're fucking snakes and all the rest of it because they stole money on the fella and a lot of the other fighters but they managed his career fucking unreal his management from each fight and the progress he made over it and then they made him a superstar. Because of the TV backing they had from Channel 5. They were able to navigate.
Speaker 2:You've got to be managed correctly as well.
Speaker 1:You have to be managed correctly and you have to pick the referee.
Speaker 2:It's so complicated and it must be so frustrating it must be.
Speaker 1:Who taught fighting would be so frustrating I'm entering this show to tell you about my sponsors JFH Social, where you can get your haircut across four locations in the North Newcastle Lisburn Road, ormo Road, and coming to you very soon at the Danish Complex on Erode. Also, that praise guy doing great, great, great charity work across the world fantastic praises at stake on their social media pages. Checking them out, that praise guy. You know that's what I say to my missus. I'm gonna get the child a dartboard. See, watching Luke Littler, that kid's eating fucking kebabs and just throwing darts. Yeah, that's the way to go. We were getting piced up for fucking years and years. I wasn't born like this. I wasn't born like this. You know what I mean.
Speaker 2:Just get the child and go throw it yeah, it's fucking hard yeah, my nephew.
Speaker 2:I had quite a proud moment last week. My nephew's 14. He Cork City against Bose in. He's in the Cork City Soccer Academy and last year he played. He was at Melwood playing Liverpool. He went to Carrington, he went to Etihad campus playing man City, aston Villa, birmingham, preston. What an experience for a 14 year old to play all those teams in one season. Right, and he's really talented, he's a really good goalkeeper and he's training six days a week, three days with his club, and then he does private coaching one to one with a UEFA coach. And all this right. And I said to my brother the other day, like I said my brother, I said how's it going? It's great. And my brother was like where did we go wrong? Like your man's walking around in sliders in a wash bag, and he's only.
Speaker 2:You know what I mean. I think it comes from the environment and the parents, and you're pushing the parents. Were you pushed?
Speaker 1:How did you get?
Speaker 2:into it. Nah, Are you from a fighting background. My brothers?
Speaker 1:my father boxed, my uncles boxed, yeah, my older brothers boxed and they were good at it, they were Irish champions. And then obviously he just followed my whole eternity boxing club, like probably about 500 metres from my house.
Speaker 1:See what I mean so it was normal it was normal, I was getting in there regardless. It was just something I always wanted to do. And then it wasn't until I was like 17, like 16 maybe, I started winning loads and it was like became like it near enough, became. I was going away and doing like training camps away for a week, doing a training camp with, like the Irish team when I was 16, and I was like this is what I want to do, this is better than working, and I like I had no idea what I wanted to do, but I wanted to box, and then I just kept winning. And then here we are.
Speaker 2:I want to ask you a question about boxing. This whole beef that you have I think it's fake beef most fighters have, you know to sell a fight. You see it like I'm going to smash you and I'm going to smash you down, and they're throwing chairs around and water at each other, and then you have the fight and afterwards they're eating pizza in the dressing room. How? Why have you ever had real, real beef? Or is this a little bit of pantomime? How does it work? Because I'd love a boxer to stand up at a press conference. Say, if I was fighting you, sean, for example, I'd say oh, what are you going to do to your opponent, sean McCullough? I'd go. Actually, I think Sean's a very nice man. He's a very family man. I don't know much about him, but he seems like a lovely man. He's a professional boxer. I highly respect him. I'm going to knock you out.
Speaker 1:I'm like mate fucking shut up, it's all balls. To be honest, how fake is it. How fake is all that? I don't. People have different personalities and I think, like a lot of it's like hated like with an exchange of words when someone says I'm going to do this, I'm going to do that, and they're like defending themselves and going you're not going to do fuck all. A lot of it's real but a lot of it's bullshit, because it ain't like I do that, like I fought an old stable mate of mine, sam Maxwell, last December in the Odyssey and we had sparred and trained together.
Speaker 1:We lived together in Glasgow for like two years and he's a really nice fella and I was like Sam's a burning fella and I think I'm going to beat him because we sparred loads of rounds. Rounds, spars were like you would pay to watch the spars. They were not good. But fights, fight. Fighting's different than sparring. You haven't got the big headgear, big gloves. You haven't got that protection. You've got a smaller ring. You haven't got a big crowd watching. It's all different different type of adrenaline.
Speaker 1:He's a great fella and I but. But I'm gonna beat him and that's what I believe, and I'm sure he's coming here believing he's gonna beat me too, but that's just the way it is, and what was it like? Uh, after the fight after the fight was starting, he just come over to me and he was like me. I knew it was like he. Just he's like you're just a nightmare for anyone to fight yeah, what was your beef like with bravo?
Speaker 2:what did you say to him before the fight?
Speaker 1:nothing, I don't, I don't, I don't talk. I know what I'm here to do. Yeah, he said he was calling out the winner of no, he was calling out Davin Haney. If Fran Garcia failed the fight because his head wasn't right, he was saying and I says you're taking your eye off what you're here to do, I'm here to beat you and you're looking at demons, so I know where your head's at. You're beat already. And he was like yeah, we'll see. I says yeah, we'll see. He says yeah, we will see. And he won.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but if you watch it back, yeah, I know, I know.
Speaker 1:I remember going back to the corner and Pete Taylor was in my corner and he was like fuck, brilliant. And this was like the seventh free-of-fire. And he's like you haven't been hit, you haven't been hit at all and I maybe his next two or three rounds and I'm home and dry. And then when they called out a split decision, I was like a split. One judge had it to me 98, 92, which means I won. It's a big gap. It's a big, big fucking gap. And then the other judge had it 96, 94 to him. And then another judge had it 87, 83 to him.
Speaker 1:I was like what the fuck like how?
Speaker 2:does this even happen?
Speaker 1:and I'm just like, and people were saying to me after like, like, I'll, I'll stand by you, I'll do you the world a good. Like, I'll create you, I'll give you a massive platform, I'll give you like, like, I'll get you bigger fights, and all it hasn't. It's done the complete opposite.
Speaker 2:I can't get a fight? Is it because nobody wants to fight you?
Speaker 1:Just a banana skin. I've lost my ranking. I was in the top ten. I was like rank six in the world at that stage and I've lost that. I'm completely already a top ten now.
Speaker 2:Can you not ring up Eddie Hearn and go, Eddie, come on.
Speaker 1:Eddie Hearn came in the changing room after and he was like you won that fight. Like you know, you won that and I was cracker and we're talking about going to belfast. Putting the show in belfast will potentially work like it's something, like something there, and he hasn't. He's completely just fucking black me. But from a business side of things, arianne wants to put on good 50, 50 feats. I'm willing to fight anyone and he knows that, but he can't get anyone to fight me. Do you know what I mean? So it's like that's tough going, is it tough going? So, as I said before, it's tough going. So, as I said to you before, I'm probably going to rebuild.
Speaker 2:What's the wife like with that? Like when you can't get a five? Is she delighted or is she pissed off that you're not out of the house?
Speaker 1:She's glad that I'm home, like she's glad that I'm home and I'm doing my own thing. I know, but it doesn't pay the same as boxing, like obviously boxing's my main, like that was my main income. But there's still. There's still a good two years, I mean like two. I don't get hit much.
Speaker 2:Like so be like Tyrone McKenna retire not retire, retire not retire. Yeah, I wouldn't do that.
Speaker 1:I think when I'm done, I'm done. I'll just say I'm finished. Do you know?
Speaker 2:what I think you'd be very good at Commentary.
Speaker 1:Commentary In the studio. In the studio, I've done one show in Dublin there.
Speaker 2:On the Zan or something. Yeah, the Zan.
Speaker 1:But my accent's too thick. Good, your accent's fine. Man Like you understand me, but you're a pure Latin.
Speaker 2:Yeah, Frampton's good at it. We've had Frampton in on the radio and I asked him could I touch his back? Touching his back, mate, it's a fucking wall.
Speaker 1:It's literally a wall he saw it, he just saw it. Man, for such a short guy, what's the do you guys?
Speaker 2:obviously I know you all know each other, like comedians all know each other. But is there, like I suppose it's in any job, but like sometimes you just look at some fella and you're like he's a fucking dick. There's loads, there's loads of them.
Speaker 1:Like he's see him at Trump the other day he's fucking everywhere, like there wasn't one representative from Ireland and Conor McGregor's here like not one political representative from Ireland was invaded to Trump being elected. And Conor McGregor's here fucking running around shaking hands with everyone in Washington and he's fucking nuts.
Speaker 2:It's kind of like sad because he could have been the guy that he obviously did really well for himself when he started out bit of a loud mouth, obviously, I understand that's like the fight game and all that. And then there seemed to be a bit of a turn where he probably, you know, won a couple of fights, big fights, and then it was coming up to he threw a thing, threw a gate at a bus or something. There was a couple of assaults, punched a guy in a pub in Dublin and punched a guy in a pub in Dublin, and then it just seemed to aspire, whereas actually he could have, like you know, retired and gone right. You know, keep my mouth shut. Promote the game open.
Speaker 2:Some community centres become man of the people you know that kind of thing, like you know, use your, use what he has amazing stuff that he's done for his life to bring back down into maybe communities that need a bit more support and stuff like that. Now it's like no one wants to even talk.
Speaker 1:I still think he sort of half does a wee bit of like work, like charity work. Maybe helps a wee bit, but he's just. I've never been in his company but I don't think I would ever be in his company. I know someone has been in his company.
Speaker 2:He would put me on edge.
Speaker 1:I would be on serious yeah would you not would you not.
Speaker 1:UFC have you tried it. No, it's not for me. Why not? There's too many disciplines boxing's like hard enough as it is to master boxing on it's own and I've said this before on a podcast I think I'm too good at boxing to go and do another sport. Do you know what I mean? I've put my whole life into boxing. I feel like if I wasn't good enough but I was like Conor McGregor wasn't good enough to be a boxer, so he maybe used boxing to steer in the MMA and that's okay, because he obviously was very, very good at MMA. But for me I just feel like I'm too good at boxing to go into another sport, another combat sport, because then you have to learn a whole lot of other disciplines.
Speaker 2:Yeah, somebody put me out and did a bit of acting. It's one of the worst things I've ever done.
Speaker 1:It's fucking horrible. See, when someone holds you and you're just laying on the floor and there's nothing you can do, what the fuck it's like.
Speaker 2:I don't know what, just lick their ear.
Speaker 1:I don't know. What do you do? You're probably better off doing that you'd be there's a comedian in England called Andy Askins.
Speaker 2:He goes I've given up the cage fighting this guy's about 50 skinny, scrawny, like IT kind of guy. He goes, given up the cage fighting too many rules. He said, just can't go at them anymore. He's just like too many rules, sick of it there is.
Speaker 1:Do you know? I only found it as well when people are like rattling. See, if you hold on to the cage, you lose points. Yeah, that's crazy. Yeah, we've got a support link and it's holding on so you can't fucking. It's mad, it's crazy, man, but it's like it's definitely a fucking harder sport, I feel in boxing, like in terms of like, how often do they? You know what? I always ask this, but I know because I've got friends dictate which days they're going to do which sport. Like how do they do? Like one day they would do like Muay Thai or boxing day, like a striking day. They called, and then the wrestling and then the grappling, like how do they? How do you learn all this in a week? Plus, you have to do your cardio work, which is running or some conditioning, and you do your strength, work, your diet, your dad, drug testing, your ego has to be stroked your Instagram has to be published.
Speaker 1:Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 2:there's only so many hours on Monday, oh fucking, I don't know. People fall off a cliff when they're retired as well, because their body is so used to this adrenaline high and stuff like that. When I come off stage, sometimes I can be a fucking nightmare. I could have a great show. I'm like wired yeah, endorphins boom out. And my partner's like you alright. And I'm like yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm just thinking about that. I should have said this and I shouldn't have said that. My energy wasn't great On that joke and all that. And she's like Okay, you coming to bed. I'm like, oh no.
Speaker 1:Oh no, I'm up, I'm up, like I'm up, like I'm up for an hour. I'm up for an Because, like Tommy McCarthy winning the comedy, yeah, that was probably a good move, like for him to keep, because obviously when you retire it's like you miss that adrenaline. Now he hasn't retired, he's back boxing, but like you must miss that, you know.
Speaker 2:Yeah, well, like, do you know what? When the pandemic was on I mean, I don't know about you like when the pandemic was on, we weren't able to do comedy. I was actually okay because I had no FOMO, obviously, because nobody else was doing it, and it was actually really nice to get a bit of a break and to kind of like see, like oh, where is this actually kind of going. And then what happens? You were getting an adrenaline then because you had to create other stuff. You know, like you had to go online. We were doing Zoom, fucking start a podcast or Instagram live. Hey guys, just checking in. Well, check out, you dick, because I'm not listening to this shit.
Speaker 2:I want to let you know how you can grow your business exponentially, you fucking snake oil salesman. Hey guys just checking in, fuck off. I'm sick of this shit. I understand people do all that stuff on Instagram, but like there comes a point, where do do all that stuff on Instagram? But like there comes a point, where do you ever like see someone on Instagram or TikTok and you go, do they not have a family that could have a word there? Like there must be a family member that go, hey, pull you up there for a second. You know this crying, you do. Can you just call off on the crying, because what you're saying isn't right?
Speaker 1:It. What you're saying isn't right. I have one person right who continuously messages me on Instagram looking me to grow my audience and they can help me and they can. Let me just do one free call with you and I can explain everything and I will put my and I mean this is, this is person. I have message back once.
Speaker 2:But hey, but they're in the act of sales never give up, guys. Never give up guys. Never give up when you get knocked down. Even if they don't reply, it's still not a no. It's still not a no.
Speaker 1:That's the mentality.
Speaker 2:Did you ever see the guys on TikTok? There was a guy on TikTok. Oh, he was an amazing American guy and he goes. I get out of bed at half three. I read at double speed. Then, me and my wife, we go on a treadmill, we walk backwards uphill and then I drink 16 gallons of water and then I bang my head against the wall and I tell myself I'm great. And then I take 75 different vitamins and then at 7 o'clock we get the children out of bed and we bang their heads against the wall and then everything's amazing and then blah, blah, blah.
Speaker 1:By 9 o'clock I've that's the best way to describe him, do you?
Speaker 2:think Bill Gates is getting out of bed at 3 in the morning. He's in bed till fucking 9.
Speaker 1:He always was. I know Like all this bullshit about getting out of bed.
Speaker 2:Like I get out of bed at 4, what time do you go to bed? At 6pm? It's the same difference, you're just moving the time you fucker, you're just moving the time.
Speaker 1:I know people do Like oh, I want to get a head start in the day. I have no interest. I know what I'll be doing at fucking 4am I'll be land scratching my fucking, my Henley holes.
Speaker 2:I just find it. I find it, but I was looking into these guys. There was a lot of documentaries in England about these people, right, and I'm actually into, I'm actually into researching them now at the moment, right. So one thing I've noticed about them a lot of them not all of them, especially the ones in America a lot of them have very dodgy pasts and it's like they're overcompensating now to make up for their past, if you know what I mean. Secondly, as well is they sell a vision and an idea, but very hard to get that under consumer law because they say, well, if you didn't do that, then that's not going to work, so it's very loose.
Speaker 2:Like there's a self-help guru in England. He wrote four books on confidence and I just went. Why did you have to write four?
Speaker 1:surely the first one, first one should be enough, gave you enough confidence. He wants to make more money, obviously.
Speaker 2:And then he wrote another book about like I can make you sleep better. And then the next one is I can make you. I can make you sleep more positively. I said what the fuck? How many times you just regurgitate in the same shit. But what, but what?
Speaker 1:they do, is they get?
Speaker 2:vulnerable people who are in need of an answer for a problem, and they suck you in and that's where they get you got a van hired three apprentices and now has 60 staff, has national contracts. They don't have any social media, they just know how to grow a business. They're the people you should be talking to, not fucking people in rented cars and fucking rented dodgy watches and all that.
Speaker 1:I've seen a thing. There's a like PT coaches are the same, obviously in that industry of having a gym. But these fellas now are all fucking there's this fella. He's calling out these mentors.
Speaker 2:Brilliant good.
Speaker 1:He's calling them out saying you're fucking, and there's like PT words that are like slapping back and forth on social media and he's using animated messages. You're saying like you're going to go. People have went bankrupt. People have literally went fucking. They're almost lost houses and shit over this.
Speaker 1:Sign up to sign up to him and pay him like fucking 1500 quid a month. He's promising him like the moon and stars, but like you say well, he's just gonna say, well, you just didn't do this, you didn't do that, you didn't do this, and this is why how come I've made fucking like a million in 12 months? I've went from earning 100K to a million in 12 months because you've just fucking told everyone lies and now he's being called out for it. I think I know that one.
Speaker 1:I've heard that one so it's a wee bit of beef now.
Speaker 2:Yeah, but also you've got to be very careful. If somebody comes up to you and goes I can make you happy, I can make you rich, I always go by. The mantra of life is you show, you don't tell right, so I would never. I would never tell you. If somebody, if you meet someone out tomorrow, sean, and they go up to you hi, sean, my name's Andrew and I'm a really nice guy if someone ever tells you what they are they're fucking dangerous people.
Speaker 2:Instead, I will show you that I, if I think I'm a nice guy, by my actions over time, by meeting you socially, hanging out with you.
Speaker 1:You help the girl lift the pram on the way in.
Speaker 2:Can you just tell your audience that please?
Speaker 1:Now we were coming in first time body clerk right and a girl was coming into the coffee shop. She needed a hand. Hand lifting the pram up two sets of steps. Andrew being the gentleman he is lifted the pram. My first reaction was nice guy did I put that on Instagram?
Speaker 2:did I put that on Instagram?
Speaker 1:I didn't need to put it on Instagram it's like the people who go around the city centre and give a homeless guy money. Yeah, and record it. Yeah, look what I'm doing.
Speaker 2:I know.
Speaker 1:I'm such a nice guy and giving this guy I hate that shit banality, whoa.
Speaker 2:I hate that, I hate it, hate all that. But, yeah, it's good that they get kind of called out, because they're selling vagueness, yeah, and people are just getting sucked into it. People are divisions. Do you know all the businesses that, all the businesses that were created in the last 50 years, in the 60s and the 70s, in the 80s, in the 90s and in the early 2000s all of those happened without instagram or social media so you can still do it like, yeah, of course.
Speaker 2:so people, people you know, set up, you know, whatever it is a marketing company in the 1990s like people think that, oh, you can't be successful unless you sign up to this or you have these social media. I know plenty of businesses out there. Word of mouth is more important than a fucking Instagram reel 100%. People need to just calm down.
Speaker 1:People are using TikTok now almost like Google. I did I'm guilty of it when I was going to New York. I was taping things to do in New York and it's all this huge shit. I understand that it's the same itinerary, but it's also a visual answer as well.
Speaker 2:So if they're saying go to Central Park and you see the visual of oh, it's a lovely park and blah, blah, blah, Okay I can totally get that, because you're getting the visual, whereas if you type it into Google, you might just see a picture where you can see like top five things to do in New York.
Speaker 1:Number one really food blogging. You actually get to may think something's a 10 out of 10. Oh, I got spaghetti bolognese and fucking Carlitos. It was the best pasta I've ever had.
Speaker 2:I know what you mean and I've never seen it.
Speaker 1:Was there fish in that pasta? Yeah see, I don't like fish, so I maybe get something else. But if I can go on and search it on TikTok, I can see what it looks like and I go. It actually looks a fucking great thing.
Speaker 2:I'll try that yeah, I don't mind people doing that kind of stuff like do you ever go down rabbit holes online where I type in like best pub fights and you just see fellas getting beat the shit out of them?
Speaker 1:you see my brother in the middle of it, or Dave?
Speaker 2:I see someone. Do you ever type in Russian road rage? They're fucking mad mate. I'd be sitting there for hours like typing in instant karma videos and it's just people like cutting each other up in the road and next thing they get out of the car and the other guy has a fucking gun and the other guy's like okay people shoot people.
Speaker 1:Just there's been a few instances I've seen where people just America just fucking shooting people have you ever had any shit in the out in public?
Speaker 1:sometimes people try and think oh, you think you're a boxer, I'll fucking knock you out some people have like, yeah, I always turn around and they joke like I was like fuck's sake, you couldn't have water if you fell off a boat and it'll mess about sort of people are like. And then people try and tell you what you shooted on there and I'm like, fuck off, I get that with comedies.
Speaker 2:Do you know? I was hosting the show, right, and this woman came up to me and she goes. Can I just say I've been to a couple of the nights you do and I was like, oh brilliant, and all the comedians are really good. And I went out and she goes have you thought about doing it yourself? Fuck's sake, it's because you're just the host, yeah, and I went. Excuse me what?
Speaker 1:do you know it's so?
Speaker 2:insulting what take a be fucking doing. Not only that, I'm making it up as I go along, that's even it's even harder so I went on stage, back on stage and after that happened and I told the crowd that I pointed to the woman.
Speaker 2:I said, like she's a lovely woman like but and I just went. Thanks very much, I'll give advice. Do you know what I'll do? I think I'll, even though I'm in the middle of the tour. Sorry about that. You know, like it was just like that's like me coming up to you going listen, I watched your bad boys and found out what I think you should have done. Can you imagine that, like I know it's the worst thing ever.
Speaker 1:It's the worst thing ever.
Speaker 2:I'd just be like I don't know anything, a generic sport fan. So like, I watched Fury Uziq, number two there, and my girlfriend said we watched Tink, and I went I said I think Uziq has it, but I think it'll be very, very tight and it wasn't very tight. So you know, I don't have, I'm not, I don't have the knowledge of boxing. Do you know what I mean? A lot of it's more technical and judges mean.
Speaker 1:So like that's it if you don't know anything about something you shouldn't like you obviously have your own opinion on what you think, but you don't need to fucking yeah, you don't need to tell people, yeah, this is what it is like, but people in the audience are mad.
Speaker 2:I was once doing a gig in england and after the gig someone came up to me. Why do you pretend you're irish, this woman? Thought I was putting on an irish accent and I just went. I don't know, love, fuck it. I don't know mate. I don't know mate, I'm Essex, mate.
Speaker 1:Yeah, fuck me, mate. It's just a stick of a character act. Yeah, fuck me. Do you know what I mean? Like people are just fucking.
Speaker 2:The best one I ever had was somebody said to me Hi, I see your show's sold out. Is there any chance I can get two tickets?
Speaker 1:on the day I'm in the changing room and I get messages from people I know hey, mate you fighting today?
Speaker 2:question mark? What the fuck have I been advertising for a year?
Speaker 1:hello, have you any tickets? Or, lad, have you two tickets? I look at my phone and I'm like these cunts for real two tickets. I haven't sold tickets for the last seven or eight weeks.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah the best one for a comedian is you could be like had a great time tonight in Dublin and then the following day, hey mate, any chance of coming to Dublin? I was just fucking. I was just there yesterday. I'm only back. I've literally been advertising this for nine months.
Speaker 1:People are fucked and like, surely they see it as well. I don't know, like surely they see it. They have to see it Because, like, when I say people are taxing me for two tickets, it's people I know, it's people who come from my area and I'm like what the fuck? Where?
Speaker 2:have you been? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Or do you ever get someone come up to you in a bar and say, still doing the boxing, still boxing?
Speaker 1:I get that all the time, yeah, yeah, just just watch me there on Sky Sports do you know what I'm getting, now more than ever. You're what is it like? Sort of, you're not a tired eye. You're going to give it another go. I go. What do you mean? What do you mean? I'm going to give it another go. A minute, a minute, I'm still. Of course you are. Oh, are you still at it? Obviously it's kind of a fucking fight. You don't fight every day, I know like I train every day.
Speaker 1:Yeah, people are like you're going to give an orgo, aren't you?
Speaker 2:yeah, obviously I'm going to give it another go fuck sake, I haven't gone away, you know but it is nice that people do do take an interest in what you do and it is nice that people will come and stuff like that. But there's sometimes you kind of go like how do you get through life if you can't organise? Yeah.
Speaker 2:I can't keep up like someone says to me. I remember once someone said to me what time are you on, what time does the show start? And I said it starts at 8 o'clock. What time are you on stage? And I went 8 o'clock 8 o'clock. Ok, but is that the support act on stage? No, no, I'm on at 8 o'clock. Oh so we weren't planning to get there. Can you not go on at nine, because we have dinner booked, just you, oh yeah.
Speaker 1:I just fucking yeah, fuck everyone else.
Speaker 2:I am sorry, I am sorry, I fucked your dinner up. It was on the ticket the day you booked it. The fucking time yep, 100%. I am sorry people are we're not going on. The nine folks, I'm sorry, sit and watch fuck all for an hour until these two people finish their dinner. Oh, I'm sorry we can't do this show because she's a pescatarian. We all know what they're like after a glass of wine, driving their fucking Range Rovers and their loveless marriages.
Speaker 1:Fucking whores. You'll be getting hate mail. Hate mail incoming.
Speaker 2:I get a load of hate anyway, so don't bother me. Do you get, do you get much hate?
Speaker 1:some people write stuff to me like on TikTok more than anything.
Speaker 2:TikTok's brilliant for it. I like it. The best thing to do on TikTok, I think, is engage with them. I invite them out for coffee. So if someone says to me when's the comedy starting? And one day I went it'll be starting once I'm finished in your mum's house, or something like that, right, and then I thought, oh, that's not really nice, you know, like like, you know it's so shit, like no.
Speaker 1:But it's so shit it's good, yeah.
Speaker 2:And then, like, what I do is so. I remember I put up a clip and you might get stuff. You know like this, go like I'm doing these jokes, whatever, like, and the audience is laughing obviously. And then somebody goes this is so not funny. And then I go I agree, as you can see, I'm not laughing in the video, but the audience are. If you can pick it up with them all individually, can you let me know how you get on?
Speaker 1:yeah, exactly, you know, like all stuff like that, like you know what I mean like people don't what it's same thing as like, why even voice your opinion?
Speaker 2:I don't mind it really, because, like see, everything is subjective. It's like music. Like you might like different bands than I like.
Speaker 2:That doesn't mean the band if I don't like if I don't like the band say, for example, you like fucking Coldplay or something? And I go look, coldplay are obviously a very successful band, bands in the world, unbelievable live shows. They're not for me. That doesn't mean co-player, yeah, that just means it's not my taste. Exactly. There's loads of comedians out there I love. Uh, there's a guy in scotland and uh, he does stand-up comedy. He does 20 minutes about how to turn on his oven and I think it is one of the funniest things I've ever seen.
Speaker 2:But I was at a gig one night and half the crowd were disgusted they couldn't get, they couldn't jump on they couldn't get to he was so slow and he was like, yeah, oh yeah, you turned the knob jeez, I don't know now, maybe maybe 200 now and it's, but it's the style and it's the deadpan and it's timing and half the crowd was screaming with laughter because they got it.
Speaker 2:Yeah, they got it, they got what he was doing the other half were going we don't get this and I go. That's the beauty of comedy. You either go for it or you don't. And you find what you like and you stick to what you like. And I find what I like and you find what you like and you stick to what you like. But there's people out there who don't understand that yeah, but that of comedy. You find your crowd you find your audience.
Speaker 1:Your avatar, yeah, is like what you people who are interested in your comedy like. Your comedy and Shane's comedy are very different. William's comedy is very different, yeah, and they're all on the same show, so like to find like an audience to suit everyone. They're all gonna happen. Equally is funny.
Speaker 2:It's not gonna happen my favourite one I always get a lot is like do you know my favourite comedian? I'm like, yeah, roy Chubby Brown, he's got. I'm like, oh, for fuck's sake, do you know what happened to me recently in Belfast? I was in a bar in Belfast and this guy came up to me and he goes. Can I tell you a racist joke? She said to me and I went stop. My girlfriend was there and I said stop. No, you're not telling me a racist joke. And I said that's not cool and I don't think you should be going around doing that. And he went and then he just did the joke, but he changed it to Paddy Irishman and I just went. So I so I walked away and went home. I said I'm not fucking being around this guy. He goes, I'll just change it, he goes.
Speaker 2:I'll just change it to Paddy Irishman then and I went you cannot go around doing that. I said I don't do jokes, I don't do that Like. That's like old school, 60s, 70s.
Speaker 1:You don't even like. It's a story, tell a story.
Speaker 2:It's a performance it's a conversation for people. You know what I mean. It's it is baffling. I think the funniest thing I ever saw. I was at a gig in Dublin. I went to see a friend of mine and the show was starting at 8 o'clock or something like that.
Speaker 2:And I arrive anyway and my friend, there's two people doing the box office at the front of the screen, right, tickets, and I'm standing at the door chatting away, chatting away, chatting away, and I've been in the room. But I've come out and this guy arrives right, probably 28, 29, with a girl and he comes up and the girl is at the door and he says hiya, how's it going? She's like, hey, and she's got the list of you know the tickets, all the. And the girl went oh right, have you booked? And he went no, no, no, and she goes, I'm sold out. And he went what do you mean? Right? And she went it's sold out, like we've. It's sold out. It actually sold out two days ago, it's just people who've booked. And he went, but I only want two.
Speaker 2:And I started to my blood. I goes, I'm going to have to come in here. I was like, well, if there was two, it wouldn't be fucking sold out, like you know what I mean. That was just about to come out of the mouth, right? He couldn't deal with the concept, I can't process it. So she said like, yeah, I'm sorry, but you know. And she picks up a flyer and she went. But you know, we've got a show next week and we've got another show this week and he goes, but can we not just go in, like? And she went, no, like, like we don't have any seats and we're gonna. She actually said, like we will go over our fire safety, like everybody is here, like there's still people, and there's people still behind them.
Speaker 2:Then and they had to come around and they were checked in and he just stood there and I remember him looking over at you, one, going what do you mean? Like, but we'll just go over there because you know somebody's sitting there. You can't just go. But how is it supposed to be? Because how is it sold out? And then she just went. People bought tickets, that's so simple. He was on a date with the girl and obviously he was trying to say I'll get us in, I'll get us in. And I was just standing there like this going, I just went, give me five minutes to go in the car park, how, how, but you know what, he will go out that night. And everything was that girl's fault. Yep, it was never his fault to broke the ticket. And there's people in life that I fucking love those people. I follow them around, I love listening to them. Because they go. That's your fault, that that's your fault. That's your fault these people out there. They're like professional victims.
Speaker 1:They're just victims people are just victim mentality yeah everyone's just a victim. Nothing goes right, nothing goes right. They're always a victim.
Speaker 2:I love those people because they'll never be happy.
Speaker 1:They'll never be happy you should write a book you will never be happy by Andrew.
Speaker 2:Ryan forward by Sean McCope. I am Sean McCope. After reading this book, I left my wife and child, and I now live in Columbia.
Speaker 1:Smuggling coffee beans for a bold coffee shop A bold coffee shop in Ballyclare.
Speaker 2:Fall for more. Sign up to my course. How you can be a coffee smuggler? Full of me on the front, all happy course. I'm going to be a coffee smuggler. Put me on the front, all happy. Yeah, you know. So like is. Is there a lot of roided up guys in boxing, full?
Speaker 1:of it, I would say every world champion.
Speaker 2:How are they getting past that?
Speaker 1:they're sickles. You know, like I would say 90, 95% of world champions would be G Stubble. Are you actually? 95% of world champions would be cheesed up. Are you actually joking me? 100% honest to God. I would say it's just riddled with fuck. I would say, nah, you're better just allowing it and just seeing who does it the best at this stage. Honest to God. But like Canelo was caught and he said, oh, it was meat contamination, so we got away with it. And they're saying meat contamination, so who the fuck gives?
Speaker 2:a bag of coke and a steak till a fucking who gives a cow steroids.
Speaker 1:Why the fuck would a cow need steroids? You know what I mean. Like that doesn't even make sense because it was steroids. It was like performance enhancing drugs. It wasn't a bag of coke. You'd be alright if you took a bag of coke.
Speaker 2:I watched man United Brighton there recently. I think the whole Brighton team was on drugs the way they were pressing nothing to do with how shit United are. How could, united cannot, we can't you just beat Arsenal.
Speaker 1:Penalties penalties drew at Liverpool, drew at Liverpool still not, you just beat City this year you see, the thing is with man United. They have fate, but they don't have a system of play. They're fucking shit. When it comes to the average teams, there's no fate.
Speaker 2:I was actually upset after the game and my girlfriend came in and she went what's wrong with you? And I went just a bit upset and she went, oh, like how are you feeling? Or like what's going on? And I just went no, I'm upset with man United losing 3-1, and she went fucking shut up, she walked out and she was like fuck god, you must be.
Speaker 1:You would just be upset for the full year because they're just I had a season ticket to United for 5 years.
Speaker 2:I used to live in Manchester. I used to live 20 minute walk from Old Trafford and, oh man, some of the greatest days, like Louis S Tevez, ronaldo, nani, michael Carrick, alan Smith when he played us things like Phil Bardsley Wes Brown that was a good Ferdinand Vidic.
Speaker 1:Louis Saha see when you think unbelievable days. See the players that they have, but they had. Then they were all average good team players like now they're bringing even when they brought Pogba back like superstar individuals.
Speaker 2:That doesn't work, because like well, who proved that? Leicester City proved that in 2016. This is my. This is my not in force they're fucking proving it now there you go.
Speaker 2:This is my assessment of soccer at the moment. Now, right, as somebody who's grown up I mean, I'm a I have four sports in my life, right, golf, hurling, rugby. I mostly follow Irish rugby. I dip into Munster and Ulster. I keep an eye on all that Hurling. I'll only follow Cork Soccer, man United and stuff, right, so what I do is and I don't know, is there a link into boxing as well?
Speaker 2:Right, how can you motivate a 23, 24-year-old who's on, say, 50, 70, 80 grand a week, who's got the best clothes, lovely house, nice car, the best doctors, the best physios, the best nutrition, the best-looking partners, after two or three years in the Premier League, probably enough to retire anyway. You know, how do you motivate those people? And I think you can only really motivate them emotionally, and there's managers that come along every so often that can get that. Jose Mourinho's first-timer, chelsea. John Terry, said that he would run through a brick wall for him. Jurgen Klopp. I look at Jurgen Klopp. When I was a united fan, I'm thinking I would have played for that man. You know, I would have loved him. A man, united, right, because fergie and you even have who else is there to pep guardiola. They transcend their managers, that can transcend the money in the game and they can connect with a player, right, yeah, and so what? So is reuben amram going to be one of these guys? Where he's come in mid-season, he realised this squad of players is not good enough for the way I want this club to play, so I need to make decisions to see what their capabilities are. I need to get rid of six or seven of them and I need to bring in as many as I can now.
Speaker 2:Unfortunately, we've no money because we've been mismanaged for years by the Glaziers, cancelled. So we're going to have to sell local players. So rashford could go. There's questions over menu. Uh, garanacho could go. Lindelof is going to go. Erickson's going to go. Casimiro has to go. I am this question's over. Xerxy highland is probably a reserves team striker for a couple years. He needs to, probably. He needs a year on loan. We're putting so much pressure on us. So what does ruben amaran have to do? You do not need world-class players. What you need is players that you can connect with, and I think if you can connect with players emotionally and get them to work for you more than the badge, yeah, you might have ever had a coach in your life where you turn up and you love this coach so much that you'll go. I'm going to win this fight for that coach, not for me, I'm not going to win it for me you don't want to disappoint them.
Speaker 2:So how do you? How, how do you do that? And and I think, like managers, there's only one of those managers, or two of those managers come every five, 10 years.
Speaker 1:Fergie was obviously a master, fergie was the main, he was just management Mourinho when Mourinho was in his pump.
Speaker 2:When Mourinho was in his pump and I know the game moves on Pep Guardiola maybe this season made a few mistakes by the time because he didn't buy some players, and he maybe found out this year, and you never know what's going to happen. But what can Ruben Amberham do? And I don't know what the answers are, because I'm not a football guy, but is there, like, is there a link to that in boxing, where you would, you would fight for other people than yourself because you, you're, they invested in you, or you know what I mean because, like, if you're fighting for a big purse, I think like you know what I mean.
Speaker 2:Like how does that?
Speaker 1:my coach, I would say, like he know, like my amateur coach going up as well, mickey Hawkins, was the same. They know your capabilities and when you're you're not living up to your capabilities, you're not performing to the level of the standard that you can't perform at they. They let you know like they're like me, like, come on, like you're better, not you need to like, and then you feel disappointed yeah no, you know what I mean.
Speaker 1:Like I think right. Like you don't want to disappoint a coach who you have a good relationship with, you don't want to ruin that relationship, so you're like, right, okay. So I'm sort of like at night, but I believe it's a big. It's a big thing In terms of you don't need to be a genius, you have all these Technicalities and trying to do this and trying to do that, but like, if you don't like the person, you don't like how they Put it across to you, it's like fuck off.
Speaker 2:So I believe, You've got to have the right person To communicate correctly to you.
Speaker 1:You need to have someone to fucking who has like a bond with you and I think like pap guardiola has it.
Speaker 1:Definitely because you've seen pap guard even what he don't know like he just sells players if they don't want to be here. Like they say I don't want to be here, he just says, right, you can go. He doesn't make you feel like, no, I need you, I feel like you need it. You need to just wipe a good fucking 70 percent to that team out, like yeah, and keep a couple and you can see. You can tell who they are from their performances on the pitch but it's like.
Speaker 2:It's like if you the way I kind of like look at stuff like, that is like if you look at Leicester and what they achieved, it's not about having world class players, it's about having a work ethic and a unity and a belief system, and that only comes with people who are all together in the right attitude. Fergie used to always say he loved buying players from working class backgrounds because they grew up with nothing.
Speaker 2:They're hungry and they grew up with nothing, and your dad was a fucking painter or your mum was a care worker or a dinner lady or something like that, and he said they're the ones that you can really something inside you I think a lot of them now are just like fuck it. You know what I mean. The heart has gone you see Rodri.
Speaker 1:He plays for man City. He drives like a fucking Corsa. He lives in student halls, doesn't, doesn't have any social media at all, reads he's still doing a. He's doing a I think he may be doing a degree now at the minute as well and like I don't know some sort of doctor, brilliant. So he's like no social media. He drives like a quarter and he just wears normal like training clothes that man said he gave him. He doesn't buy fly shanning, doesn't have any watches, no jewellery but is he happy though?
Speaker 2:I actually said this to one of my mates recently about like I would get rid of six or seven players in January. Just release them. I just promote the under 23 squad yeah the under 19 squad. I just push them all in just say do you know what?

Speaker 2:No, because he told me that it's like a fucking Doing, a podcast for Shane's, like Q&A for Bonnie Blue. I know it's just one after another.
Speaker 1:See that, Fuck me a thousand people she slept with.
Speaker 2:Jesus, I'd say her. That's insane. Imagine being 999.
Speaker 1:That's being a thousand. Someone was proudly holding a sign of a thousand.
Speaker 2:Like all this, I don't understand that, like, I saw a few clips and I'm not, you know, like a typical bloke, I read up on it, like. But there's something I don't know. I find that very empowering for a woman. If that's what she wants to do, it's absolutely none of my business. But also it's kind of like the long term effects of that, you know, might not hit for a few years, you know. I don't know. I don't know.
Speaker 1:I wonder if there's any psychological damage because she wanted to do it but like later on in life, like surely she must go. What, what the fuck.
Speaker 2:Imagine if she goes out when she's 50,. She goes for a meal and number 28 and 37 are sitting at the next table.
Speaker 1:She's like how are you lads? I'm well lads. Did you get that thing cleared up? Did you get that? Fuck me. What do you get Five minutes with her, is it? Fuck me, I don't know what I get, but to go to a thousand.
Speaker 2:I must sign up and go and have a look at the next one.
Speaker 1:I seen her full of her. Surely, like you were saying about the sales guy, surely there's someone like a, a relative, who steps in and says right, not not today. Bonnie, just 800, come on, just 800 will do where's her relatives, where's her fucking close relatives to step in and say what the fuck are you doing?
Speaker 2:well, maybe, maybe she's on her own and she's isolated, I don't know. Like imagine, imagine being her brother in the pub. Jesus Christ, how's your sister? Yeah, she's busy, we can tell but how do you sign up to it? I know I'm not asking to sign up, I'm just like. I'm just curious.
Speaker 1:I know how do you like how does it work? I've seen that you put up like a video saying or signs a location, and then people just queue up.
Speaker 2:That's, that's what I've seen fucking hell, but isn't there another girl doing it as well? There's like a couple of them, isn't there?
Speaker 1:fuck me, like she, like what. There must be some serious damage done there, like imagine internal.
Speaker 2:Yeah, internal damage like fuck me oh, that's insane. Listen, I wouldn't know anything about that, but did she get paid for it? Did it pay? Do you pay for it? I don't know, I don't know. I'd imagine. So can you imagine her going into the gp now like, well, why'd you get up to the weekend?
Speaker 1:the gp. Could just the gp should turn her away, and it's probably like, it's like I don't know, like she wouldn't go, I don't know, I don't know, I just I don't know. I find it very odd you know strange times in the world it is very strange.
Speaker 2:You know what I mean. It's only going to get stranger because your man's fucking back now in America like so I know he's a fucking rocket like he thanked God or something.
Speaker 1:Elon Musk, my God, he thanked Elon Musk for his for winning Pennsylvania. Musk, my god, he thanked Elon Musk for his for winning Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2:So Elon Musk and him it's amazing, isn't it, that like not one.
Speaker 1:America banned TikTok. Do you?
Speaker 2:know it's back for 14 hours.
Speaker 1:It's back, yeah a lot of people make a lot of money off TikTok.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I love how, like in 2020, when Biden got elected, it was all like fraud, voter fraud. Now Trump got elected, not one voter fraud was resolved. Biden obviously fixed the voter fraud, so it goes to show that basically, like you know, America is just fucking nuts yeah, but he's. He's only got four more years left and then he's gone forever. So we're coming to the end of it now, but then it'll be someone else there'll be another guy, another lunatic or another woman that'll come in.
Speaker 2:Make America great again, again, Again, again. Make America great again, again, again, again.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2:So like.
Speaker 1:I'm, it was never great, I have a.
Speaker 2:We've banned the news in our house now.
Speaker 1:We don't?
Speaker 2:America voted for this. They chose this, so it's none of my business. It's not my country they can fucking do what they want.
Speaker 1:I have mates, we're in a group chat and they fucking love Trump and I'm like why you even. What the fuck does Trump, being elected, do for you and our country?
Speaker 2:absolutely nothing, because it gives all convicted criminals hope yeah some of them are criminals.
Speaker 1:So that explains that one.
Speaker 2:I've just got my answer you know the guy is all well, if he can do it, okay, I was in for GBH and I saw it, but listen, I've got some really good forward thinking ideas about climate change.
Speaker 1:Yeah shut up.
Speaker 2:So that explains that but the thing is, I look at it and go America know what they're getting with him. They voted for him, so best of luck to America.
Speaker 1:Best of luck.
Speaker 2:You get what you want and I'm delighted you have him Enjoy it. I hope he does really well for you, but we're in for a wild ride.
Speaker 1:I was in Florida in 2017, november 2017 and he was elected for the first time. The place was going fucking bananas celebrating they love him in Florida. And I mean proper grown men, these big finger things you wave at the basketball games Trump number one, trump number one. And I was like what the fuck? You're 58 years of age, sit down, relax, calm down.
Speaker 2:Yeah, what's he going to do for them, though? America's too big a country to have a massive impact Like the president of America. I mean, I know you can sign executive orders country to have a massive impact. Like like the president of america? I mean, I know you can sign executive orders, but realistically, like you know, oh, I suppose he has the house and the senate as well, doesn't he? Yeah, yeah, so he probably can do quite a bit like, yeah, but anyway, I've always loved the world war yeah nothing of all the films that are gonna be made afterwards.
Speaker 1:There's a lot of work going around for actors and stuff like that after trump Trump and then we can, once we're older, we can say oh, you could never have lived through our times oh, listen to this, your son, right, your son.
Speaker 2:Imagine this when your son's 25, you can look at your son and go right, son, and pretend there was no internet, pretend no internet never existed. Right, and you turn around to your son 9-11, right, thierry Henry, handball. Right, that's a big one. That's a big one, right, thierry Henry. Handball. Pandemic, donald Trump, israel, war in Europe, fucking Fergie leaving United. Right, and you sat down and you explained all Brexit, you explained all the events to your kid and there was no internet and you said Demi had a pandemic, we had to queue up to go to the shop, we couldn't leave the house for this right.
Speaker 1:I wasn't there when he was born.
Speaker 2:I wasn't even there when you were born. I can guarantee you, if there was no internet, majority of people wouldn't believe you.
Speaker 1:I know it's fucked up.
Speaker 2:Can you imagine if there was no like they wouldn't believe you they wouldn't believe you say, look, we couldn't leave the house in 2020 for whatever they were. Like, fuck it off, no, and you go prove it. I can't, but it did happen. But the fact that we have the internet now, yeah, like people wouldn't believe what's gone on in the last 20 years.
Speaker 1:It's definitely getting worse. It's going to get worse. Oh, it is going to get worse because if this is only five years from like the pandemic has been, like like world crisis is repeatedly happening every single year, yeah, or has the crisis always been happening, but we've access to much more footage and news now, there you go like, for example, there's been a war in South Sudan for years, but no one ever talks about that.
Speaker 2:Do you know why? Because because there's no money there. It's crazy. Do you see what I mean? North Korea, north. Korea, they're fucking don't mind the lads, they're nice lads, they're alright, they're us on lockdown. Don't ever slag them off because they're fucking. Do you know what I mean? Nuts. But yeah, I look forward to Trump now. Well like.
Speaker 1:I'm not a fan of him, but to see what happens yeah, to see what happens.
Speaker 2:There's actually people are copying his format. The guy in Argentina, there's a. The Italian leader, the Spanish, the Germans are far right, are coming back in in Germany it's fucking scary.
Speaker 1:They're fucking.
Speaker 2:I don't know, but then again, maybe the leaders who were centre and centre left need to be better leaders for everybody. That's what's causing extremism anyway. Great to be on the Public Nuisance Podcast. Vote, anyway, great to be on the Public Nuisance Podcast, thanks for coming Vote.
Speaker 1:Vote Andre Rath Vote.
