Cold Opens: Fights And Monte Carlo Chaos

SPEAKER_01

Welcome to the Public Nations podcast. Right here in Killing Studios, where you can get all your content. Photo shoots and podcasts, video editing, whatever you need, we've got it right here. Before Christmas, I was like, because I just fought right before Christmas, and then the rest of Christmas was like, oh I'm free, I can do what now. Like by by the time Christmas came around, I was like, fuck right, here we go. Back I need I need to get some structure back in my life. But I got there. I just had to open that gym, but I'm still like I still have to go back to camping all day and get all that checked on.

SPEAKER_02

But you've been flying you've been flying like the last even the verbosa fight, like you got mugged early. But you've been fucking doing great. It was good that fight in Monaco. Was Michael was that? That was that was great. Great fight. Yeah. It's even cool. Like, see watching, being a boxing fan, I like watching them. I always love to see them in Monticorlo, like the face looks, it's just cool.

SPEAKER_01

It's unbelievable. Fucking such a good setup. That uh people like Shane was actually asking me last week. He's like, I have this wee routine that I have when you fight, I like to get you on after your fight and ask about like, did you get arrested? And I was like, no, I didn't get arrested. I got arrested in New York and I got arrested in Hull. I was like, no, that's what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_02

Two of the boy glamorous places, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

I was like, no, I didn't get arrested in Monte Carlo. And I was like, but three of my friends did. He's like, what did they do? And I was like, they actually didn't do anything. And like when I said that, I genuinely meant it. Yeah. And he's like, What's their names? He's like, Victor, Chucky, and PG.

SPEAKER_00

And he just busted out laughing. He was like, mate, there's no way those three names don't nothing.

SPEAKER_02

They just they do something like just classic characters.

SPEAKER_01

And in Monte Carlo, you're not allowed to drink in the street at all. See, I uh so um that was I was one of the I was by the arrests.

SPEAKER_02

No, I went to I've been to like my folks used to have a wee flat and knees, so then they then they bend it off, and our kids are like, never gonna get there anymore, you selfish bastard. I'm like, all right, sorry about that. But um so that then we used to go there for uh like a a bit, and then obviously you go to Monaco on the train. I go like friggin' onslo from keeping up appearances and the vest and the show, like sweating and all, eating my baguette down by the yachts and then I went down and speaking France German, you know, Bonjourman. Yeah, it could be I like if it wasn't tanned, it could be from anywhere, like from Turkey to friggin' Belarus. But uh I was there and just I I felt so out of place, and then I went over to see an Arsenal match against Monaco in the Champions League, and me and a mate went over and we were like, right, we'll get the train over and we'll just get on like from about midday, so we were getting there buzzing. And then we got off, and we're like, ah nah, there's no drinking. And I was like, What? And they're like, Yeah, Chelsea were here last month and fucking you guys.

SPEAKER_01

They have the worst reputation on football. And I fucking scrum.

SPEAKER_02

Then there was this we this fella had a sports bar down there down in the marina, and he was like, come on in, drinking and then see whenever the police come, just say oops, didn't know. So we were I was fucking buying rounds and rounds. There was like about seven bottles of wine on the table.

SPEAKER_01

I was gonna say fucking had ideas of like drinking on the rip and then got to Monaco, and it was like 40 quilts for a bottle of beer, I'm like, one beer?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, but it was it was wild, and then like when we enter the stadium, obviously like Monaco with no goes. So we went there and then we were like show the tickets and I was like just go on wherever you get. So we ended up just like near front row spirit. Yeah, you know, and then I think they didn't I don't think they won. Like I think it was are they even doing well to marry Monaco?

SPEAKER_01

They're all right. Like obviously for you, like they had Falcon on not too long ago when they were they were bringing the end. Like I think City bought a few players off them.

SPEAKER_02

I have Sullivan I think uh because they're in the they're in the last 32 or 16 of the Champions League work because they're against I think.

SPEAKER_01

I still don't know what's going on with people, but like I can't keep up with it. No, I like from the whole structure change that I'm just like I'm lost. I don't understand that. I know like the top four or something going to like I don't know, stay like different like I I honestly can't no.

Street Drinking Rules And Football Away Days

SPEAKER_02

I because it means it's good, like obviously Arsenal are doing great, but then it comes like that doesn't matter. Yeah. In your last 16, because then like when Liverpool they finished maybe was top or something last year and then they got PSG. So it's and then PSG are playing Monaco actually and tonight. And it was the PSG beat Monaco 3-2 in Monaco, so it's tight enough. So I'd love to see Monaco do them.

SPEAKER_01

Like just uh get rid of them. Champions A is different for them, okay.

SPEAKER_02

That's the thing, obviously Arsenal are notorious bottle jobs, like so I'm shitting myself. No, I see what's not Spurs game.

SPEAKER_01

I know, I I'm I'm a city man, you see, so I'm like I'm once Spurs scored, I was like optimistic and I was like, Spurs can do this, you know. And then half time once Arsenal scored so so soon in the first half, I was like, ah big shout out to that prize guy. Changing people's lives daily with massive prizes at stake. Shoot across their socials, check out what prizes are on store, and who knows, you may be the next lucky winner.

SPEAKER_02

It's all coming down to the Arsenal City game now, yeah. Like it'll be in the league up and then and then but then we're looking back at the early season, you're going City were there to be beaten and Arsenal were just not trying. And it's like see now, that's where you're gonna be able to do that.

SPEAKER_01

This has to be the like the worst season. Like in terms of like form for every team, no one's been good, no one's been consistently like really fucking good.

SPEAKER_02

Because that's it, like you know Arsenal are gonna drop points and then City would be the sort that they go and beat Newcastle, beat Liverpool, and then they'll play someone like Spurs and then beat or Brentford, beat you know, someone and you just go, you can't predict it like so. But it'll come down to that. It'll come down to that. What happens?

SPEAKER_01

Does Artara get does he take the does it if it if let's say it's a an unsuccessful season for Arsenal, what happens?

SPEAKER_02

Does Artara stay or do you know I think it's mental to sack him if we finish second? You know what I mean? Like if finish second, get all so far and all the cops like no, not good enough. I think just keep him and you just had the whole patty.

SPEAKER_01

Who else do you replace him with? You know what I mean? That's a thing.

SPEAKER_02

So it's like But again, I think the biggest problem, I I hate Arsenal fans because they're fucking nightmare. They're all mental and they all respect and they're to see Arsenal fan TV, like I'm looking at going, you guys are are wild.

SPEAKER_01

You never realise how much other people hate Arsenal supporters until Arsenal are doing well. Like it's only been the last two years. I always remember Arsenal obviously like early 2000s, unbelievable, and it was always just them and Nate supporters arguing amongst each other 'cause that's all it really was.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Um but because they've been off the boil for so long, I haven't really heard much of it from them. The last couple of years have just been chirping up. But like I don't hate them, but everyone else does. Everyone the amount of people who say to me, I hope City win the league. I can't stand Arsenal supporters. I'm like, I don't even I don't even what fucking hopefully Arsenal supporters.

SPEAKER_02

But it's that bloody Arsenal fan TV. Even for years I'm watching going, you guys are making me depressed. Like I'm depressed enough, and you're like, Yeah, it's wild. But you know, I'm I'm just I don't want to say it. And everyone's like, Oh, you think they'll do it? I'm like, no, because they're Arsenal, like you just you never know until I know like and then they go and beat the stuff Real Madrid, haven't beat PSG, you're like, oh, and then they go and lose, and you're like, ah class, that's that's the way it goes.

SPEAKER_01

It's that's yeah, that's the beauty of the football, isn't it? Is that your f football be your favourite sport? Yeah, you end up the paddle talk with other lads, you know.

SPEAKER_02

See, no, I go I go the opposite of that, because then they're all into it. I'm like, that's a fad, fuck that. Yeah, like I'll get into you know I'll I'll give it a go. But like when it comes to people's lives, no, you lose.

SPEAKER_01

People are fucking on people are obsessed. Like Arn Butler is he's on the bottom. He's a problem.

SPEAKER_02

You know, he he he has a problem. Like he might say to him, like, he do you know, asking him about work stuff or whatever, and he'd be like, Oh no, I'm playing paddle today. And he's like, Oh yeah, I paid paddle for 72 hours last week. I'm like, you're uh That's insane. There's nothing else to do.

SPEAKER_00

You learn fucking two languages changes time next year.

SPEAKER_02

I know, but no one playing too much paddle. But I I just don't get it, you know. But then I I'm like that. I I think it's just stubbornness in me. I'll not follow track something and then I'll like down the line I'll do it and be like, oh it's good when it actually is a thing. Like Game of Thrones, I'm like fucking what's like that is good. That is good.

SPEAKER_01

Oh fuck the last time, because the last time I seen you you were doing that big race till Darry I'm so so yeah, I was that was fun. Like I was the arsenal trap.

SPEAKER_00

I think the whole episode we spoke about your arse.

Title Races, Fans, And Arsenal Anxiety

SPEAKER_02

It was bad, like it was just yeah, it was bad. But um you know what? It's it's a one of those mental things. It whenever you look back on it, you know when you're doing it, you hate it. Yeah. Then afterwards, like, oh, it was good. Like and you see it wasn't that bad. Like I say, when you're at the at the like the the offices where then you see the people who use the services now, you're like, ah right, okay, that's fair enough. Apart from one place I was there, and like you're going in and I ain't getting going being like, around going at lunch here. And they got the place like, I've got some jammy dodgers and a cup of tea. I decided I'm like, you go a rap or something. I'm not gonna go from friggin' They're going to your grandmother's fucking.

SPEAKER_00

It was why they sat down and looking around going 1988, the only biscuits are shop. Burbagami dodged that in like oh song steal.

SPEAKER_02

And I remember sitting there going, like, you have to get me something because they were like, we're gonna do like 20 minutes here and then we'll go back on the road. I'm like, but the road's from friggin' Aniskale and the dairy, like I couldn't need to need something. So I remember sitting there, and one of the guys was just chatting away to me, and you know, when you're trying your best to be all but in your head, you're like, mate, can you just give me a game? You just ask for please God. Um but yeah, it was grim. So I'll not be doing that again. Not that I think I've done it, been there done.

SPEAKER_01

It sounds grim. It's one of them things. I just like you're in your head for too long, it's too long of a journey, and you're just it's just you and your own thoughts. I would just go, fuck this. I'd just hope for be hoping for a big Lloyd.

SPEAKER_02

There's a couple of times on it. I said, I haven't gone corner here. The worst was in the middle of nowhere, like up on up in this mountain, and I just took a corner too quick and get it off in the ditch. Nothing else, just make life. And the guy was cycling with me. He's like, What happened there? I was like, Oh, are they looking around, you know, like diving their own?

SPEAKER_00

The most weird thing ever fucking crashed a car for a pop. I know I can't hold my old rack.

SPEAKER_02

I look fucked if I just come on in grim. It was grim.

SPEAKER_01

Today's episode is sponsored by the Wing Society on the Lisburn Road, a place where you can get all things chicken, tenders, chicken burgers, wings, amazing sauces, amazing flavour, sit in, take away. Listen, whatever you want, they've got it. It's unbelievable, grub. Check it out. 338 Lisburn Road.

SPEAKER_02

But like, see the first day I went, like the morning, I woke up at like five in the morning, and uh I was just like, I've never felt anxiety like it. I was like, why I I the amount of times, why am I why am I doing this? Like, why am I doing this? And then once you get off, it's it's a bit of crack, like you hit the iceberg and you're like, I was one bit down, and then I was fine when we eventually got to the first stop like for the night and put it down. I was I'd never I don't want to never ever go to put it down again. Like it must be in the middle of a mountain because it was all hills up and then all hills out of it. But that next morning after that, and you know what it's like, the second day was awful, and then my horse was all swollen. And like, see, getting back in the seat, like, oh my god. Oh, that's the worst part, and then just going that whole second day. Like I I probably cried for about half an hour, don't it? Big Devil.

SPEAKER_00

Big shirt on flaps.

SPEAKER_02

That's what it was like. And then the fellows like you are right back and I'm like cruising on crap. But it was oh man, it was made it was cra it was just grim. And then like after that, when I was like, right, if only I'm basically on the last day, I was like, won't go home now. So I have to, and then the whole thing through, I'm like, oh fuck, I have two of Aaron Butler's panel shows to do tonight. So it's like, I'm not even gonna get the rest. So but yeah, this last day was alright, because you knew you were kind of yeah, you're on the home straight almost like and then uh but yeah, it was it was a good thing to have done, but uh during it I hate it.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, yeah, it's one of those things where I and I when I do things that are difficult at the time, I could be anywhere else in the world, but but where I'm at currently I'm just like oh trying to get me like trying to get over this and it's just horrible. Even like usually happens to me when I'm cutting weight and I'm making weight, and I always go it's the worst weight cut I've ever had. Every fight I have I always say to myself, I'm like, You're so dry, yeah, you're completely exhausted, you're just fucking trying to swather, and you're like three kilos overstall, and you're like, oh and you're completely deflated, and you're just like it's the worst, and then you go in the bed and you're just lamb, boom, dry. Every time I tell myself, this is the worst ever. But then whenever I go and eat and fight that, it was easy. Easy, yeah. That was easy every time.

SPEAKER_02

But no, that's it. See, I always think about it whenever you're coming into like a fight and have them make weight. Like you m you must in your head be like you should be on like you think you're on weight, so it must be absolutely gotten when you can only go.

SPEAKER_01

See, when you can honestly like do a weight cut and you think you've lost so much weight, like through experiencing through doing it so many times, I almost know how much I've lost during a season at that at a certain period of the of the fight week. So I would know like say day one I'll do like a kilo and a half roughly of a water weight where I'll drop off, and then the day two would be like two kilos or day three would be like around a kilo because it's like an easy session, and then the day before I was trying to do a two kilo session the night before. Yeah. See if I don't lose see if I I leave myself with two kilos to cut and I only lost like a kilo and a half or a kilo point three, say, and you're bone dry and you don't think there's any m like much more in there, you're just like see at that stage you're like you just cry. That's actually on the back. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00

That's big that's big D boo. Big D Boo Elliot.

Paddle Mania, Stubborn Trends, And Charity Ride

SPEAKER_02

And then like a bit of me was like I can say it's a wind like you know, it's just an arena eyes, but no, it was I was like Because the worst is when you feel like you've been on it for like five hours, and you go, How long is it to go? And you want them to go hours about another hour, and he's like, Four hours, and you go, Oh Class, class because you're not there and I got a pick.

SPEAKER_01

I've probably only threw it once since then. Yeah, it's a big phase, everyone got a pick.

SPEAKER_02

Well that was the thing, and uh afterwards, like the charity were like, you know, listen, we'll probably let you hold on to the bike. Oh cheers. So I thought to myself, right, the gym I go to is about a mile from the house. So I say this would be great, routine, cycle the gym, have a worker go back, gets the cardio, I'll be fucking the weight'll be off me in no time. And then like the day after finished, I get tagged in the Instagram post and the bike shop that gave it to us, has it up for sale and they're saying off. Then they'll be fine, let me keep the helmet.

SPEAKER_00

So just walk about big people.

SPEAKER_02

And the thing is, it doesn't fit my head right now. I got big non-big. I'm ordered in not gonna make it because my head is too big.

SPEAKER_00

Like they can't sell it.

SPEAKER_02

So yeah, I'll have the lovely bike. So somebody's got the bike and they're out, they're out doing it. I'm just doing this go pick up with the helmet on. You know what? That's actually a good idea because we're doing a charity gig for them, which is much better. So we did a gig that we're actually meant to have last year, a couple of nights in the Mac, and we're doing that again this year in May. So and I'm kinda hosting them, and then we're doing one up in Derry and the Millennium Forum. So I might come out with a help.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, so funny.

SPEAKER_02

I didn't see because like last year I was it, like we're doing this is the first thing I'd ever done for the charity. So now like I'm an ambassador for it and I'm like giving them props and all. Last year that I was doing it, and I was just doing stand-up and someone fell heckled me from the crowd. I said, What are they saying? He goes, I'm not taking anything you say seriously. I'm like, Why would like why would you?

SPEAKER_00

This is a comedy show, mate. Yeah, it's like all right.

SPEAKER_02

Then this guy's there because expecting some mental health advice. I'm like, this is no harm, do you? It's not the place. Oh but they're they're a while. Like, but yeah, I'm glad I don't have to cycle, but I think there probably will be something.

SPEAKER_01

But they're doing like the comedy scene artists doing everything, like the we shows on the was it is it guess what was Shane doing last week? Guess who uh I don't know if you did the chase before they do all these read different things, which are good or so much, like there's so much more now going on in that.

SPEAKER_02

Do you know what those things are like for us? I think those kind of different nights are just fun because you don't have to worry about all the lads and like we did one the bake off with him. I was heard about it, he absolutely shafted me. They're like he's uh he's a rat. He went in the movie bottle bottle of gin, and we were like, Is it a gin overall? I was he filled it with lemonade.

SPEAKER_01

He uh he didn't drink.

SPEAKER_02

Oh no, and I was going out frickin' scanning the I hadn't drank in in ages, and I was canning the tens and neck the bottle of buck fast, and I was a disgrace. Ended up in the ergol afterwards. I mean it could have been like apparently I was given all sorts of chance and all people like that's you cancelled anyone films that I'm like, yeah, fucking and then the next thing I'm I'm home poking in the sink with no clothes on. Yeah, I was I was absolutely fucking stitched up by him, like totally, but yeah, but it was that was good fun. I don't think I've drank properly since that like.

SPEAKER_01

It's probably enough to put you off because you're probably just drank enough and have fun.

SPEAKER_02

Cause that's the thing, right? Because I'm I'm taking the injections to help me lose weight, and it it fucking it uh slows your digestion and all. So all that's happening, I'm drinking like I normally do. Major eye, so it it goes in and it I'm drinking like I'd normally drink, thinking it's gonna have a normal effect on me. I just store there and then all of a sudden do shit fuck. Absolutely blast slavery at people, okay. And it's like if anyone took a video of you, I'm like, yeah, probably being all sorts of bothering, you know.

SPEAKER_01

That's the name of the game, isn't it most people see whenever you become your like it's my like not like the working class people lap out up. Like when Jack Grealish from Off the Rails, he was an ocean beach. Oh, I had seen all the comments, just all these working class people have a drink, I don't do this, that I'm doing that. And I was like, fair enough.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, but I sort of think like people forget like that people like Jack Grealish are just fellas. Like he probably obviously unbelievable skill and everything, great great talent, but then he's probably just like uh one of the lads as well. And like when he's and one of the lads that's got no limit to what he can then do. So when he's off the rails, it's a different item.

SPEAKER_01

So like when I was starting off, me and my mates used to go on these holidays and fucking video everything and just torture people and slag people and have a laugh. And there was a few times where people were like, yo, take this down, you prick my daughter fucking really looks up to you as a doctor and I'm like, don't follow me. You're just a random guy? Just an random guy who's good at boxing. Sorry. But that's it. And that's all really it is at the end of the day. People look too much into like professionalism and sportsmanship, but we're no one's taught that.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

We're not actually we we we had a wee bit of like a wee bit of media um like media workshops and stuff down in Dublin on the IS team, but anyone else who wasn't on that, like who went there, and weeks who went to the come off games who didn't do none of that. We'd never know what what that looks like or how you behave in front of the media or how you have to s that has to be self-taught. If you're from fucking turf lodge, like that's that's it to me, it's alien to me.

SPEAKER_02

But then that's that's other people sort of going to you, oh you this is what we you should be. And you're like, but at the end of the day, it's not what I am. Exactly.

SPEAKER_01

And I think to suit you, you're to suit other people.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, I think people like ultimately like they support the real people, you know, they can relate to it and love to say it, you know. 100%. I sort of look at Mick whenever he at the Olympics and he's flipping everyone off. I think everyone's like, well, let's hit him. Yeah, that made him and it's and I think like when you like even like Tyson Fury, people are like, he's a freaking wing. Yeah, he's been anything.

SPEAKER_01

Oh more people can relate to it.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. And then he went from like the start where everyone sort of hated him when he started out, and then they thought he was just this madman. And then they're like, he is it, and then they're back to going, he's mental, but he's classic. But and then his dial, like I that's the one I'm looking forward to. I want to see him and Carl Frotch. That's it's 100%.

Suffering, Weight Cuts, And Fight Week Math

SPEAKER_01

I seen Carl Frampton doing a an interview with someone saying he wants to do Carl Frock's corner. Yeah. Seems like because he like I had him on here and he was talking about that whole experience with John Fury, and he was like, I proper shitting myself. Like, yeah, but he's like a handle uh like it looked like I handled it well from the outside, but the inside I was like fuck.

SPEAKER_02

And then you sort of see with that, you're looking at it going like it may it just makes John Fury look like a dick.

SPEAKER_01

So he's standing over him and all. He's just paused about this place, and people are letting him shoot him down, but he's storming away from Carlfrack, yeah, upstairs, and he's shooting over the bottom down at Carlfrack so he was down with him. Yeah, and then he walks away shooting the whole way up. I'm fucking John Fury, you know, and then he's shooting down.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

He's just a mental bastard.

SPEAKER_02

But I you know, you love to see it. Because you always say, Oh, he's done this, and you're like, I gotta go look at that and I go, Surely, uh Tyson Fury's like, Oh, fuck me, dad, not again.

SPEAKER_01

Would you give him a head arrest? Like he was shut up. It seems like Tyson Fury just never comments on it. Yeah, it's like they were saying when you bring your dad like if people bring their dad and they just embarrass him. Yeah. Like when you're a kid, like when you only you're having your first pen, you're eighteen. Yeah. And you're like, oh first pen, he's getting it. No one's trying to embarrass you, hearing it. And you're like, shut up, done.

SPEAKER_02

That must be like at all time with them.

SPEAKER_01

And it's like, God, you fucking. Tyson Fury's fucking like thirty five and his dad's like

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, and then he's talking he's talking about his dick. No, he's got he's got the biggest dick in boxing. And you're like, I don't break like that. He's a real man.

SPEAKER_00

Don't put that pressure on me. You do wear your fucking pogard pack a front to drive a backyard.

SPEAKER_02

Oh man, he's probably fucking there too. Somebody'll have to be in his corner.

SPEAKER_01

I know. That's crazy.

SPEAKER_02

You got to me like this. I know you're gonna beat the shit out of my dad here.

SPEAKER_01

Boxing's boxing's becoming we bit of a like it's like it's obviously it's entertaining. All this crazy stuff, because we were talking about it for starters, right? Um like neither like Floyd Mayweather's gonna fight Monty Pacquiao again. But he's gonna fight Tyson first, make Tyson first. So I'm like, what's Money? Maybe there's fighting Tyson first as a warm-up for Monty Pacquiao. Because Monty Pacquiao's been active. Yeah. He fought for World Title like six months ago.

SPEAKER_02

No, he'll still be but then again is it is it going to be as an exhibition or is it gonna be a product?

SPEAKER_01

But Netflix are covering it like that.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, see how to say I don't know, because like I remember the first one I sort of remember like that was the when Mayweather fought McGregor.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, I remember first, I was like the the first like.

SPEAKER_02

But it was madness, and then leading up to it, I was like, like at the time, obviously every like most people were big McGregor supporters, and I was like, I pack it or Mayweather needs to win here. If McGregor beats Mayweather, like it's making bollocks of boxing, like he can't. And then I think like when you sort of saw it, it's like fuck McGregor's alright here.

SPEAKER_01

And Mayweather, as it went on, like as it went on, you sort of knew what what Mayweather was doing, he was just letting him gas himself, right? And then he just placed him up.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, because I remember like probably Ricky Hatton was the one that sort of got me really into watching the boxing. Yeah. And when he was fighting Mayweather, you're like, you have a chance, and then you used to see how technical he is and how like you he never gets hit.

SPEAKER_01

I wanted I I I really wanted Ricky Hatton to win that fight. I was like, I I was a big Ricky Hatton fan going up, like, because he again on City thing, and I was like, I loved him for that reason. And when he was fighting, I was like so like I don't even know how to say it, but like I just wanted him to win that much that I didn't even care about my wearing. So all my mates in school, you know, fuck all about boxing were like, Where's my box? Oh he's not so I was like and then when he got battered, I I look like a dick who knew nothing about boxing, even though none of my mates in school boxed only me. And I was like, So? So what?

SPEAKER_02

But he got you he got you like going and it was as the thing with it, because he was just like a normal bloke. Yeah and like you loved it when you see him going for like when he finishes, he's out in the pants, he's fat again, and he's like up and down.

SPEAKER_01

Again, that's that thing we're just talking about. Like that he he he's very like everyone can relate to him in like in working class or age, you know what I mean?

SPEAKER_02

That's it's that's what it's all about. And then like he sort of again thought like with Pacquiao, like you you always think he's you have a chance, and then he got flattened.

SPEAKER_01

That was a hard one, like I was laid in.

SPEAKER_02

But he now look at two, like they they're two of probably the best ever fighters. And he and he wasn't like totally out of the way. He was it was but they're watching him like go through this big sort of nights where my dad would keep me up to watch it and all you're you're nervous.

SPEAKER_01

It's mad that I would get nervous, like what I used to get nervous watching like that much.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, no, that's I'd be seeing and even when you're watching like like people nowadays, like I find when we're watching local boys, I get nervous. I'm like, oh you know, and and then you see some of the big ones, like the ones I love to watch, like probably my favourite boxer in terms of not boxing ability, but to watch is Derek Chesura.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, because you know he's gonna fight's just gonna be slugfest, he loves it.

SPEAKER_02

I see when he fought Dylan White the first time. Yeah, I thought that like it must have brain damaged both of them because they're fucking battering each other.

SPEAKER_01

It was like back forward, back, it was like one for one, one for one.

SPEAKER_02

Just no defence, no, no tactic, just swinging big stone heads just battering each other, and uh and he's who's he's fighting someone soon, any Dylan White? Some like such a big fight, like a two bit it's just gonna be a claw rematch.

SPEAKER_01

Is it Chazores fighting someone? I sorry Chizo's fighting.

SPEAKER_02

He's fighting your man uh the is it because it was one I said to the boys we've got to start. I forget his name. I don't know. Do you know?

SPEAKER_03

It says you're Deontay Wilder.

SPEAKER_01

That's gonna be that is it, you're right. That's gonna be crazy. But Deontay Wailers coming off the back of a couple of hard fights where he's lost, like fights he could have varied won a year or two previous. Yeah. So now that's real like he's dropped so much levels.

SPEAKER_02

See, he had that thing where like he was saying, like he wasn't being beat and he hits he just knocks people out. Yeah. And then with him being like losing, you're like, oh, he's maybe lost. Because he is he is smaller as a heavyweight, but he his punches are like but then he would like he would say, No, I beat Fury like but they fucking slow card at me.

Comedians Boxing, Ego, And Keeping Safe

SPEAKER_01

When Fury fought here in Belfast in the Windsor Park, he made a debut, right? Billy Ju Saunders. So they flew in. That was Tyson Fury's like comeback fight, so he's on the undercar, front of his head line it. And um we all weighed in in the Europa. So they flew while in to make a scene of it because they were building a fight up between him and Fury and um and that was that. The next day, or sorry, after the wedding, we all went to Nando's that night. So me and like four of my mates were sitting at a wee table in Nando's potato or final day while and like all these like black guys were sitting in and Nando's and they were like I was over talking and sort of to them, and they were all nice, nice, nice fellas. Billy Saunders comes up the stairs in Nando's and don't know nowhere to like you go upstairs. He goes over to me and he's like, right, what's up? And it was I was I was able to know him. Um I was talking about him and I was like, Walter's crowds over and he was like, And I looked over and it's like a big bank of the table, like a big bank of the table, long table, and there's loads of them all talking loud, and they've got video cameras and all this kind of. So Billy G. Saunders just walks over and goes, rubber lips, rubber lips, rubber lips, rubber lips. I was like, I was like, it's gonna be it's gonna be coffee. Oh no. And then Johnny Waylor shakes his hand, I was right top or something, and they're like, 'Cause he's very loud.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Um Jonathan Wailer's very loud hey Jim, and there's just a little canvas and he goes, All right, rubber lips. He goes, What? And then they're all they're all so confused. What are we? My mate Marty has us all on camera.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, oh man.

SPEAKER_01

And he's like Is he being racist? And I was like, lads, what the fuck's he saying here? Like and he was like, But he's like speaking like a traveller, he's like, uh rubber lips. And he goes, What? And then he pushes him, so Billy's just all his like shoulders back and they're all like scuffling. And he left a full bottle of Nando's medium, fucks it, full wax, smashes over the wall, they all charge right around the table. I'm like, fuck. He runs down the stairs and away, someone throws a chair over the bottom. The place was fucking going nuts. And they all legged it out the door and away they went. And then I was like, what the fuck? So Ornando's, we were all sitting there and we were all like, everyone was like, Whoa, I couldn't believe it. And my mate goes, I gotta read it out on camera before I start. So we were like, fuck. We were like, don't send that anywhere. So all that went on, and then um we were sitting phrases. My Marty, my mate Marty's a fucking he's a melter. He's cause one where's our food? He's like, sorry, it's he's like, we've been waiting here for half an hour. And he was like, Fucking you may force up a few bits of cheesecake.

SPEAKER_00

She's like, Cheesecake pieces rank. He was like, Well, crow we ordered four days ago. Look, the team's on that bill. She was going nuts.

SPEAKER_01

And the one was on there, so it was pressure. The manager's like, can I speak to the manager? Manager's what we're like, oh, I'll get the cheesecake. Yeah. So she was like, she literally just brought us up all the whalers' crowds, food. Everyone, like, I mean, the food we had on the table, they just left and jumped in these wee private fucking Mercedes fatals, and we were all I don't know what was going on. And uh we had like a sweet small rent table with so much food on. I was like, What the fuck? This is insane.

SPEAKER_02

But then usually just there having your dinner and Billy Joe Saunders and Rex a place. I've I've heard he's about a wild one as well. Like completely. But he's a great boxer too, like then like you sort of go sometimes like what's he what what's he thinking of? I know, I think you said that.

SPEAKER_01

It's like I I ain't going. He he he only with two fellas. I mean, there must have been 15 of them like Whaler's crowd there, yeah. All Americans, all big black Americans, like fucking who you're like powerhouse, yeah. And you want to see he could cover like in distance, like it was probably a 10-yard dash. Yeah. When he made a when he made a charge, Whaler made a charge, when he threw that bottle, he threw it. Everyone when I got by doing that, he ran. And then Whaler made a dash from his table towards our table because we were at the top of the stairs, and I was like, Holy fuck, was it you see him board?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

And like the power of a man generating the page gets a hold of him.

SPEAKER_02

See when he loses the hair, like too, he's always very calm, and then you see him flip an interview, you're like, Oh, he's a scarce. He's a man, especially like chasing it.

SPEAKER_01

Did you ever see the the interviewer? Like, I sometimes I I often wonder what we'll see people say in them situations because you know right away if he gets a hold of me, it's game over. Like that's it like it'd be super nice to people like that.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Did you ever see the one with the interview with the guy quit uh speaking to Mick Mike Tyson? He goes about his tour or something, and he goes, Yeah, you're doing a tour. How does that feel being a convicted pedophilia or something? Or a convicted rapist? I'm like, and I go, Oh, come on, Mike. He's like, Yeah, you're a fucking you're a f or something. He says you're raising nuts. I'm like, fuck up. He has some balls.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. But then that's the thing too. Like people are probably in the crowd being like, he won't say anything, but like at the end of the day, it's Mike Tyson. That's you know, he's just yeah, and even even though, like, you see the ship he's in and stuff too. Like be disappointed to say, I thought he was gonna beat the shit out of Jake Potter. Like, I was disappointed when he got away.

SPEAKER_01

I knew he wasn't like he was actually at my feet in New York, Mike Tyson.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

And he walked by me, I'm taller than him. Yeah. He walked right by me. I was sitting on the bus, and uh he was sitting around side anyway. I've seen him a couple of times, but like I literally walked shoulder to shoulder band and he's walking, and he's he's he's an old man, like he's like his legs are bendy and he's like walking like he's had a hard period.

SPEAKER_02

That's the thing, you don't realise like how much age has an impact on you. Because you you look at him and you think it's gonna be prime. Even the last few fights of his his career, he was he was not up to it like that.

Mayweather, McGregor, And Heavyweight What-Ifs

SPEAKER_01

I'd say like in football terms, football, football can be like one scene or two scenes, and within two scenes they're literally done. Yeah, but like Kevin De Bruyne two years ago, unstoppable. Unstoppable, like just bum and then a bit of an injury and boom, just drops to level like fucking.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, so whenever they're like super athletes too, like say if you've someone like I suppose Burkamp would be a good example, like he he wasn't really too pacey, but then we if you lose the pace and that's what you're relying on, you you notice it quickly.

SPEAKER_01

But you the ones who you're good with the pace like Perlow, you can play forever. Yeah, move, they just they just use their brain, pause goals.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, I I and that and that's the thing. Like, but like with boxing, you sort of go, I get that's the thing, like whenever they did the comedians boxing, I was like, I'm not gonna do that because I know we're smart enough. But that's like you know what?

SPEAKER_00

It's like there's a fucking brain up.

SPEAKER_02

Because there's ego too, like when you look at it, I would sort of go, you know, I think you look at it, you go, I who who realistically would I be fighting someone like Colin or Roe or somebody, and be like, Well, no, Roe is as a as a fighter, like he's and that's then like with b with boxing or fighting you, it's not about like if you're bigger or stronger, it's like you know you know you get your head kicked. Yeah, I'm like my teeth fixed and all, and then all the training with it. And and some of the boys like Shane took it like he was a professional boxer for eight weeks.

SPEAKER_01

He's so legal.

SPEAKER_02

It's a it's a condition. He did something wrong with his head.

SPEAKER_01

He's 90k shorter than parents.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, so once he's in, he's all out.

SPEAKER_01

Oh, he's the key is like he CS run. He's talking about them or your man. Oh, we were away.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, he's training for it.

SPEAKER_02

But uh that's the thing and that's a good thing with him, and I suppose you need that mindset with stuff you're gonna do. You're but he like he was talking about doing the race with him, and he was saying, Oh, my legs is my legs are wee bit tight here, and I he was like stressing about it. I sort of be going, like you look at it and you go, surely like he's what, 20 years younger than Glenn? Like, Glenn's in great shape, but surely you'd think the sprint he would have him.

SPEAKER_01

Like, I've I've a sad argument that we're just talking about within like Mike Tyson and Jake Paul, even in terms of boxing, but then in terms of just run, yeah.

SPEAKER_02

Actually, just moving. That's it, that's a big thing too, like they're saying, and that the older you get, you need to have like you need to do weight training, otherwise you you get arthritis that goes quicker and your bones get weaker and all. See, now like I'm fine, the last ten years, like as they say, between your twenties to thirties, you don't really notice a difference between thirty to forty, you're like, it all falls apart. And then they say it's sort of like I looked at myself whenever I was 30, my 30th birthday, a nice dark hair, dark beard, now I'm grey, bald, because I can barely get up the stairs thinking our dog like take me to the fets and get rid of me. But it's it's wild, so now like you have to think like that. And I that that's the thing, your mind never changes. You always think, Oh, I can do it, and then it's like now your body just got like even doing weights. I was sort of like, right, I can wonder if I could bench press what I used to. Nowhere near near and I have to just go, all right. And you see that with the boxing, like, would you do it? And she's a good, like a golden you'd be like, Oh, you you're you'd want to do your skirt. And I'm like, nah, tell you what it is. I know what boxing would take, and I don't have that. You know what I mean? I'd you'd need to commit to it properly to be safe for a start, let alone you know, do any any damage or any good.

SPEAKER_01

That was a hard fight for Colin. Like, they're all big lads, Conn's fucking they're big lads and roles, and I was like, lads, I told Conn go out and just take it easy. Connor Cummings were in his corner, but I was just there helping a wee bit, like in one's like mate.

SPEAKER_02

But then Ro had the thing with Patty last year, where people like that was a drawing on Patty's like, Oh, I beat him and all, and you can just know Roe's like, ah nah. Yeah, like Patty was like, Do you call in that fight?

SPEAKER_01

You know, and Ro took it easy.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. On Congress. Yeah, because there was a couple of times when you like we were doing the commentating and I was watching up close, and I mean he just threw a few comments. You're like, oh he can he can do it. I told him the screen enjoyed it.

SPEAKER_01

I said, We'll make a show of it, just like enjoy it. Play a crowd, it'll be great and fucking paddle. Patty doesn't believe it.

SPEAKER_02

No.

SPEAKER_01

Patty fully believes he he he won that fight or Kidd won that fight.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. Which I think like if they had a rematch and it was like not just completely full back. Yeah, it would be.

SPEAKER_01

That's why I didn't want it to be a rematch this year. Yeah. Like I saw last time, and that's why I can't maybe fought Roan's there because big one would he would go out and make a statement on Patty.

SPEAKER_02

Then that's the thing. I think Ro this year there the last time was like, nah, people I think he thought people were like, ah, Patty, but you know, it would be so annoying if you know you weren't going in there. Uh Patty Bit, you'd be like, right, I'm going to show and he was he was devastated.

SPEAKER_01

I think I'd probably be the last one. Shame was saying that too. Like, I was thinking, no, I just couldn't leave it there because there's no no there was no animosity, there's no one fill it with each other, there's no fucking bad blood. See, I was the thing I guess were the most famous, they were uh fucking. Oh, they were well.

SPEAKER_02

I couldn't help it. I'd lose a rag of people, yeah. You know what I mean? And then you don't want to do that, and you wouldn't want to and then if you got beachaby raging, and if you won and you you won and you were a wee bit serious, people are like, fuck who you don't know that's my joke, mate. Like Yeah, well nah fucking have a big thing. A woman wouldn't let me park on the street and I lost it, nearly fucking drove into the bat and losing the head. So I I think like that's the thing with boxing. I don't think I could ever you know keep calm and like fight strategically and all that. That's what it is.

SPEAKER_01

It's uh it's those who keep calm are usually like Mayweather, usually better, like don't make mistakes because they can control their temperament, you know what I mean.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, but see even at the way ends, you know, the UFC and all the same.

SPEAKER_01

I I I don't do that ever than anybody, but I'm just kind of just not why we wouldn't fight anyway.

SPEAKER_02

But I guess the thing with well was it like whenever Meg fought Lee Wood, like he I don't know what it was, even just looking at his hair. Yeah, annoying me. I was like, that would annoy me at we pural. You're trying to be camera and you're like, oh fucking I wouldn't have it, I would just wind me up. I mean that's not for me.

SPEAKER_01

The paddle get what once it gets when it's that's it do you do paddle yourself?

SPEAKER_02

Are you a paddler? I paddled once.

Wilder, Nando’s Chaos, And Fight Hype Antics

SPEAKER_01

Me ran, ran stuff. I have no wins under that. I'm gonna fuck it. We paddle once, but people like are like yeah, they love it. Like Paul Hogan from Praise Gamble, Connellan, yeah, Arn Butler, they play it weakly.

SPEAKER_02

But then Butler takes it to you. I think he takes it too seriously. You have to have some fun. You know, whenever you're like you're going, you have a bit of fun, he's like, ah and you're like so that's when you turn back and be mate, we're nearly 40, you can't die. What are you doing? Whereas if you win, you're like fuck sick. You know, you lose, you're like, what way are you getting on?

SPEAKER_01

It's my ball, we're gonna home. Yeah, I'm many. You're not playing them where I've got the ball, you're not playing. Yeah, are you one of those ones?

SPEAKER_02

But no, I I mean I'll give it a go, I think, down the line, but I just yeah, not not the competitive level like East Boys.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, nah, it's fucked up. But it's like Tanger gym, yeah, as well, isn't that like?

SPEAKER_02

But he's on an app like Tinder, I think. Sending me on Tinder, he goes, No, it's paddle. He's matching up with people to play games with, and all that's it's crazy, isn't it? And I say, So you're gonna play with strangers? And he's like, Yeah, yeah. How do you know what if what if for Dexton there's no crack and you go I can have that at all?

SPEAKER_01

You'd be like, Dave see like the Tinder swinger, you'll have like this the paddle's winner, yes.

SPEAKER_02

Miss Goosey, Miss Goosey. That's probably the next thing.

SPEAKER_00

Like they're probably when do we start?

SPEAKER_02

Just girls only, you know.

SPEAKER_00

Oh, I shouldn't wear 10 trunks.

SPEAKER_02

But what do you wear? Like, do you have paddle outfits and all do you have to wear?

SPEAKER_01

I know, I don't understand it. Like I honestly like I think it was good crack. I think it's good crack if you go and play as good crack, but then goes like become so serious.

SPEAKER_02

I know you turn up like Butler's in with his special glasses and hand taping on, yeah, mate.

SPEAKER_01

Come on. He fucking fucking Marty Supreme. You know, yeah. Marty Supreme on the road.

SPEAKER_02

Like you fell out of friggin' dodgeball in an electro, no. I mean, uh he's probably listening to this, so I mean I I could say like don't get any ideas, mate. Like don't be don't we tell it. If Butler anything's capable, yeah, but no, he absolutely know what it I don't say it keeps him busy, like you know, but I don't know. I I think that's too too like uh having the time to do it is would be hard for me to do.

SPEAKER_01

So much so like and you in your like what what you do, you're so much more to it than like just stand up like you like you acting, like your parts come off stuff, like he could maybe just faster down that route of being more than that.

SPEAKER_02

I guess that's I guess that's a little weird, like it's it's hard. I always get a bit like I hate when someone asks you what do you do. I just say I'm a comedian because I think like you know, people sometimes be like a comedian, I'm an accurate on podcast. I mean it sounds a bit wanky almost. You know, like I just you know I I'm under no illusions and I'm friggin' I'm living the dream. Like, you know what I mean? We're having fun. Life is like I used to work a normal job and I'm getting to hang about my kids all day. I get to tell a few jokes at night. I'm like, you know what, and if something comes along, it sounds fun. I'm like, yeah, I'll give it a go. Like that's it.

SPEAKER_01

If you're on holiday or something, people always ask you what you do. Yeah, I was in holiday last week. People ask me when I was like, oh my gym. Go on the gym. Then I'm gonna drink like a few paints in me. I said, Oh, just google me.

SPEAKER_02

You're belting a ruff sack, I just uh where they was coming from.

SPEAKER_01

Yeah, but um last night we retained our gym the city centre, so we had people doing higher oxygen class around the block. So I was sat in the chair, like turning people on this guy walks by and he's got like this big 18 club bag with like but it must be a TA group bag. And he's bottom back and he's looking at the back, he's looking at the gym and he's looking at me, and I'm like, Alright, mate, and he takes your phone drinking. I know your face. I go, fuck, I don't know. He's like, Where do I know you from? I said, mate, I don't honestly don't know. And he was like and he was look his face was just slowly expanding, like and I was like, How do you call it? And he goes, You drinking coffee?

SPEAKER_00

Yeah, and he said he goes, I'm not saying he was like fucking bossing just looking at your herb and down the bed. He was laughing.

SPEAKER_02

That is the most awkward one if you're looking at me. Because that that same thing happened to me when I was out with the kids one day, and this we old woman was looking at me going, I don't recognize you from and I said, I said, What are you doing? She's like, I'm a comedian. She's going, nah. And I went, I was in blue lights. I so whatever. She goes, No. She goes, Did your daughter go to the same school as my granddaughter? I was like, Yeah, that's the one fucking it is alright. And then she's like, it's fucking this thing. That's all right. Do I just go back to no one?

SPEAKER_00

Only watch a child. And you're talking about it.

SPEAKER_02

There's nothing on more humbling than going on a cat on like this googet. Are we crying just like that? Or hair style?

SPEAKER_00

No, no, it's gonna be for a loud job.

SPEAKER_02

I don't talk about the get the port.

SPEAKER_00

Let's go back. Let's go. Let's go, baby.

Ageing Athletes, Styles, And Longevity

SPEAKER_02

I've been like listening to your your genre yourself. Come on, let's go next time. Let's go. Imagine that it's gonna run on the chaff. Oh, it's all that claims are.

SPEAKER_00

Strap on all Macky or something. A lot of shops, fuck me. Oh Jesus. Oh fucking.

SPEAKER_02

So I just I'm just imagining what being porn I would do. Fucking hell. You'd be happy. Anyone could do porn eye like, you know what anyone that could be on Patreon?

SPEAKER_01

There's probably like one of those like OnlyFans now is just so like open. There's so much people but to do like cooking and all that.

SPEAKER_02

Imagine if I'll explain that, it's in your bills. No swear, I just wanted to see how they make a strong officer. Meaning probably you could take a bat home and use it for something else. Imagine that's there must be something funny in that. Like people who just didn't know an OnlyFans.

SPEAKER_01

Because they went down this route, but uh they're sponsoring loads of boxers. Yes. They sponsored from McKenna, Patty Donovan, like World Way, like all the like loads of other fitters where they were trying to get people to create an OnlyFans account to watch your boxing training videos. Yeah. Because they were trying to say away from just being like battle content. But like, who the fuck's gonna make an OnlyFans account to watch me train? Like Yeah, but people were probably watching it.

SPEAKER_02

Oh, I train the top off or the bags down here. I'm sweating. Fucking speedball in your dick.

SPEAKER_00

Apart, don't have a sacks like your witch. Oh yeah. Massive ball bag. He took your hands clubs off.

SPEAKER_02

That's the NC after the fight. What's the real content there? And the balls being updated. And like even they've even tried to do stand-up with it too. Like only fans sponsored, like and like yeah, you just think you're there now. They're gonna assume it's something else. Like, you know, you're not gonna get away at all. On the bill and all, you've subscribed a lot of only fans. I love boxing. I boxing the dick of myself.

SPEAKER_00

Fuck me, dude.

SPEAKER_02

But no, I don't think you're getting away from that.

SPEAKER_01

No, no, no, it's just once you're you have that once you have that reputation, that's it, isn't it?

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, like and then what what do you do afterwards if you're like just want to do something else now?

SPEAKER_01

Do you ever see like see on TikTok and all like all these people, all like people like or they always have the relink and it's like an OnlyFans link. Yeah. So imagine like putting on like if you ask people, do you like all these like influencers would like interview people on the street? Do you ever see how many people doing street interviews and like do you do do you have only fans? And they're like, Yeah. Imagine like stop me, uh do you have only fans or yeah, and me going, No, I have only fans?

SPEAKER_02

Automatically the same fucky yeah, but then you might get up to you. I might get a few people sign up, just being like, I'd sign up for that. There was this video I saw the other day, right? Speaking of Harry Holds. There's some wee fella, right? Who's an influencer and he does like he vlogs his whole life and he like did he was doing a review for her removal cream, right? Oh and he was just like, and this is how my R stuck before I was just him bent over, filled ours out, and it ended up on YouTube, and people were like, Who the fuck? And then he does puts the cream on I'll show you it after this part of the party because you just expect them to be like I I use this, I recommend it, but now it is our spread phone and then he does wipes the whole stuff off, and this is it after I've had a shard on and YouTube just left it up to me, and they didn't realize it's just how casual it is about it. How did you even allow like I think I think because they was just like well, I'm only just you know showing uh content of like life hacks, you know? You know it's just like how to shave or whatever, but it's just it's it's the way you fully bent up for an hour how casual it is about being like this is my arts before. I mean I'd I would say cut it into the video, but then we take it down.

SPEAKER_00

The fucking thing of you cheating myself for it. Yeah. You know what I found out last week?

SPEAKER_01

And uh like we're monetized, obviously, on YouTube.

SPEAKER_02

I'm just thinking your mads are still like Ronnie Marsh, yeah.

SPEAKER_01

Sharon, so I know her. But um if if you say like a curse word in the first like minute or so of your your like video, it's not getting monetizing. Well it doesn't even be considered. No, that's okay. I need to I'm never gonna be monetized. No. It's in the it's in the West Belfast vocabulary, just a curse.

Content, Monetisation, And Keeping It Raw

SPEAKER_02

But that's uh that's uh like that's a worsey when you monetise. Like I was so stupid, I didn't even know you could until like I got these new fellas on board and they're like, oh you can put this and I already really can get a wee bit of dough to this. But like it's hard to you know, if you s if you just start a conversation, it's natural to the other thing. And then it seems weird when people are like, you know, we need to start that again.

unknown

Oh fuck off.

SPEAKER_01

Fuck off. It's raw, it's raw content.

SPEAKER_02

It's natural, isn't it? Like almost that's I think sometimes that's maybe the problem with where things are going a bit. Is it like people are getting too polished? You know what I mean? Like and it's too like script uh you know, almost edited.

SPEAKER_01

I just love how it raw is and just how like it's so like like so irrelevant to like what goes on in real life. Like it's no like it's not like you know, it's not script there, it's just flows.

SPEAKER_02

See that's why like like when you came in here, like I didn't even know what started until like you know, just go because that was that's why I kinda try to do with mine as well as I used to say to people like just imagine you're just we're out having a coffee or a day or something, just having a chat, and there's no real questions. Like it's not like so tell me, so Sean, you're you're a boxing career, you've uh uh 21 minutes too. Oh shit, it's like you know, so you you were you funny at school? I'm like, nah, still not funny, no, you know. It's like what do you you know? No, I could you funny at school? I used to pitch my own mouth. No, there you go. I'm not your paper comedian, fuck all. But that's it. And we're like, sometimes you're like, I don't know, so when did you think? I'm like, when I thought it was a career, when I started getting a bit of money for doing it, and then after that, I'm like, how to pay my mortgage? Nice, that's it. Yeah, that's kind of like that.

SPEAKER_01

But that's it, it's just stupid, like it's it have you stayed, it's just it's not for me. I just like flaw, and that's why I think there's no work involved in it. Yeah, as much well, not actual work. We you may be subconsciously like to think about what you what you keep talking about and how you relate to people. But again, it's just uh enjoyable because people maybe off often say to me, but do you enjoy it? I say, Yes, I enjoy it. But like I really enjoy like I get to see the percent of people and just having a crack of people and see trying to get some people on, like there's been some loads of people I've asked on. There may be not a like big, like falling, but I know we'll have good stories and I know they're good stories that I can't do that, I can't do that. Oh, they're funny.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

And I'm like, it's just a conversation. See trying to explain to people. Yeah, I can't get it. They're just no, I can do that out there.

SPEAKER_02

But yeah, some people some people just think it's it's stressful. And at the end of the day, like uh the only thing I will say to it is funny, like if you're doing a few episodes in a day, sometimes you can go home wee bit tired. No, and you feel exhausted, and you feel bad and you go back. Like my wife's a nurse, so when she was working in the ward, she's like, I have a long day, but you're like, Oh my bit sleepy. No, no, no, no. You know, you're like dad, no, I'm good, and you're hanging in there. I was like, whenever we had the first kid and the nurse walked in and she goes, Are you alright? and I was like, Ah, because the seat's a bit sweaty, but I mean, don't worry about that. And she's like, Well, don't eat that kid, all right, sorry. She's just been stitched up. I'm like, I just don't say anything anymore.

SPEAKER_01

I know we just keep quiet. And she's like, I'm being like, I can't say I'm gonna nearly my son's bed, and like he's coming in the other side. As soon as he comes in the other side, I'm in his bed because I can't have a fee and the fuck shit, it's the bottom off of his. Every like five minutes going like And I'm like, nah, I just can't sleep. But I can't.

SPEAKER_00

Yeah But I can't see that.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. Because that was what we found while I what I found funny whenever we just had like our first one. So it was just obviously the three of us kicking about at the time. And like she wasn't like we were wasn't breastfeeding around, we're just feeding the b on the formula. So if I woke up I'd feed her, it was grand. But then sometimes she'd wake up and feed her and be like, here, here. She's up, and I'd be like, What why what do you want me to do? I just thought you might want to know me. And I say it these moments, let me sleep, so whenever you're sleeping, I can you know, have it and she's like, I thought you want to be here.

SPEAKER_01

If you don't have them, be a fucking star, and then you're not gonna be able to do that.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, a hundred percent. And I think that's that was always the funny thing. Like, I I quite like getting up early in the morning, so it's kind of suits. She likes to lie in and get up with the kids and do that and walk a dog and whatever. And then uh and it and it's great. And then seeing the evening times, that's when I started to kind of flag a bit. But yeah, see, today was good. Like I got out with a dog this morning for a walk and I hadn't been able to get him out for a few days because I was away doing support machine in in Europe in Barcelona. I was Barcelona, it was great, and Lisbon the night before. I got home, it was buzzing to get home. I was like, I can't wait to get home, see see the kids, see the wife, see a dog. And then Arsenal were playing Spurs. Like, I'll get in, I'll be all tired, the kids will sit with me, I'll watch football, bingo. I was about two minutes from home, phone rings, where are you? And I just said, Why? Like I said, is everyone alright? She goes, Why? Because the fucking dog shit everywhere, and I said, Oh no. So I was all excited to get home.

SPEAKER_01

You had it all sussed in your head, but never goes how you want it to be.

Pets, Vets, And Unromantic Real Life

SPEAKER_02

No, man, and I got home hate shit everywhere, all over the kitchen, all up the walls, booked everywhere. No, I'll tell you what, he couldn't he couldn't have painted this up a wall. It was like there was water cut, it was just costing. So then as soon as I'm in, the whole house is stinking. And then two of us, I have the gloves on, picking up all the shit in their bags, and and then we settled down. I was like, Oh, he's not too good, and had to wipe all the bleach the walls and all, stinging. And then just as soon as we get it cleaned, he's like, Well, shut up. I was like, Oh no, so I was my whole day, and I had to take him down to our vets and all, so I thought he'd eaten something, and then they're like, Nah, he's just got a bug, so they inject them and they give him a pill, and they're like, There you go, 600 quid, please. I'm like, oh class, love that. And then we're back to parcel. My tears being extended. And then so getting them out this morning, I was but I was it was like yes, he used to feel miserable. You know, like dogs look at you, like, yeah, just look at you there.

SPEAKER_01

But imagine if you were if someone was just trying to drag you out after being sick, yeah.

SPEAKER_02

But then that was the worst of all. So whenever we finally got him settled after he had the injection, all being to the vets, from my like kitchen door to the front doors, probably set right with this room. So front doors are kitchen doors are ours. Like, right, Vinny, out you go, go for your business. And he just walks out in the hall, water everywhere. So just as I'm about to go to bed, I'm like, oh and just stinking. So then that's a couple of days ago. So today I got him out and he did a proper shit I used to lie to nice for well done, mate. So that was it. Got him out, big, big shit, and then washed him before it came out. So we've got all the shape washed off his tail and all. Just look, so yeah, it must be like it was weak because I'd have a hot water tap out the back to wash him with. So like you see, see when he was in the hot water in his arse and he was loving it. We lipstick but it was wild. He was loving it, yeah. Oh yeah, it was worth it then. It wasn't but T Tits of Shader still walking all down the moss cruelty. But yeah, he had a great time. That must be like a nice warm bee day, like it's something. But yeah, so I was today, I was the glamour of today. Like just you get up, walk a dog, shite, shade all over him and then small things at least. That's it, you know, love it.

SPEAKER_00

And then appreciate a salad shade.

unknown

It's nice.

SPEAKER_02

Well, as worse, see when there's blood, I'm like, why do you have to shite blood, mate? Because at least if it's just I just when it's blood, you're like, I'm gonna have to take him to the vet. And you ring up and they're like, uh, you do you know before you can get here 300 quid? I'm like, oh yeah, class, you know, and then they're like, don't have us to keep him overnight. I'm like, nah, fucking. If he dies in the kitchen, he dies in the kitchen. Like, don't worry about it. Two grand or something for you to keep him. Yeah. I stick in a fire or whatever myself.

SPEAKER_01

But um fats are fucking still in him. Like, imagine like having another animal. Like dogs, I understand, like, because dogs are real like pets, they're like like a human's best friend, a man's best man. I see about a cat or any other animal. Like, I just fucked shit out of still.

SPEAKER_02

I just I just let it just go, like, but I wanted to get a cat or a cat, it's just not for me.

SPEAKER_01

Like I'm a screw the cats.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01

I haven't had there and there was like a wee car always coming in. All these resorts always have cats, I think, keep making in during the day, obviously to sit in the chair in the in the uh lobby. And every day, it's woman, well not every day, but this one day we were coming to breakfast, there's one goes, oh, starts patting, I go, Wow. And I hold like it goes, oh Jesus, and the girl just walks off. I was like, why would you even touch it? Like, what the fuck the state of it, big old smelly cat? Fucking I hate them. I say if I would have my way, I would extinct cats, man, every St. Sean. Yeah, St. Sean's day.

SPEAKER_02

No, I I wouldn't I I wouldn't be struck half, but I would go for the dog, like but then I fucking they ever just go, You're a stupid bastard and think of yourself. I saw one of the dogs when I was in Spain and I was just outside of shopping and I was all like wagging, and I stroked it and I went, Hello, and he sort of looked at me and I said, Oh fuck, ooh, and then I'm like fucking what a stupid bastard. Oh, so they're the fucking wagging like rabbits. Like, couldn't they have a rabbit in there? They won't like see you see if your eyes are in a side of you. It's fun creepy about them. Like and my my my uncle had a rabbit, and I remember one day it just bitter. I was a scary thing, because you know when the stretch they're really long and they jump like fucking hell. I didn't know that's come on, smile.

SPEAKER_01

Monty paything and holy grail. Oh I back. They would they would re-wait rabbit who just runs a big just jumping back, killing people, cutting heads up. But see, we see that you know what's in them like I'm like I think cats are probably the only one that I'm like I'm afraid of. Like a rat and I would be afraid. Like we had ferrets, I have ferrets and stuff when I was a kid. Man hunting stuff for ferrets and dogs and all that kind of rat cat. I think cats, because if I seen a rat, it would just kick it. Or just like oh, it's a bear. But if I seen a cat, I can't do that. Yeah. Do you know what I mean? How do we run all the time? We were in Panadon. And we were all me and my mate running the drink, fucking heavy drinking in Panadon. And there's we cats on the street, but all these corner bars with all the English lads sitting in the big scooters and all smoking figs and playing bango, whatever else. We're walking up, just me and I'm blocked. Like two o'clock in the afternoon, there's a cat, he was shhh, cat was over and he was shhh shh boot to the big kick. So flying there. But I I'm a screw because I think he's he's calling the cat to do something to me. Yeah. You know, like the thought of me or something.

SPEAKER_00

And uh and he goes, boot, big kick, squill and flat there, and everyone, you know, as long as we go, run all the airline, and all start fucking shit.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, look what happened to Kartuma.

SPEAKER_01

I know, you know, I didn't know what he was doing, but it wasn't me kicked out. I wouldn't even touch a cat. I don't think I've even I don't think I've even ever touched a cat.

SPEAKER_02

No, I would forget I would they they they they're they wouldn't be catching me booting them like burly things like you know, got love. But uh he he'd get karma now, someone find him boot him.

SPEAKER_01

Probably probably being booted things from them, from there.

Tour Plans, Travel Habits, And Discipline

SPEAKER_02

But no, they're gonna go like that. Yeah, he friggin' like there's no I I remember when it goes too far like you do try to look after your pets the best you can, like even the goldfish. He's he got a got a bit of gravel cotton him, and there's one point I got the tweezers and got him out and all trying to get the gravel out of his throat, and I'm like, nah, he's kind of fucked now. And then they put him back in there, you swim around upside down. I'm like, ah you know, and then I had to look up what's the coolest or the the cruel the coolest. What's the what's the coolest way to kill it? You know, what's what's the least cruel way to kill him? And they were like, oh, you can't unless you bar it so in a toilet. I uh I just put him in a sandwich bag. It's probably sandwich bag and in the bin. But he was just yeah, having an awful time. He's floating on, I think, fuck he's done like sad, like so. So deaf. I know just sandwich bag in the bin. And it just yeah. And kids were like, is that hard fishing? Is it Simon in the bin? Nah, don't worry about it. It's just he must have been my one. So lick a lick. Yeah. Oh fuck, it was it was grim, but now we just did the one fish and he's lived through everything. Like he's he's never gonna die. He's great. We got work done in the house and we just left him there, but thought he'd be alright because he was in the tank. But as we holding it, so we were doing all fucking drilling and all. We went back and it was just grey water, and like, how the fuck is the fish dead? And somehow he's in it, he's all stained and all his skin, like his scales are all covered, and he's lived and cleaned out the tank, and he's still going.

SPEAKER_01

So it's he's a trucker.

SPEAKER_02

He is a trucker. Gaspard he's called a weird name for a kid. Gaspard?

SPEAKER_01

Gaspard.

SPEAKER_02

The kids watched this TV show, Simon, it's by the wee rabbit, and it was on Netflix and I watched it when they were kids, and there's Simon and his brother Gaspard. We French ones, so it's hard to explain. People be like, Why the fuck you call your goldfish Gaspard? I'm like, Yeah, it's long stuff.

SPEAKER_01

We call ours Bob.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, that's how I saw actually that he had eaten gravel. He was like, Done. Sandwich bag way you go. Yeah. That's what you should do with other things, you know. They go just, you know, sandwich bag in the pen. Sandwich bag in the bin. Well, I'm the dog's dead, I don't worry. Sandwich bag sandwich bag in the bin. You're gonna do a sandwich bag. Can't remember whose joke it was, but someone's got a great joke being like I want them to scatter my remains when I die. And he's like, but don't I be cremated? Dumped in the pin. I'd be a good cracker, wouldn't it? If you're like, listen, my will, I want you to bury my head in the sand at a beach. Uh people are walking a dog. Just all right, what's happening? Do you ever see the whether some guy that does a prank of his granny? I think he's like a Mexican fella or something. He'd done he'd bought this like realistic mannequin's head and put it in a jar of water and put it in this fridge, and he set up a granny on his red, she falls down and fucking kills herself, and he's like, ah, it's only a joke.

SPEAKER_01

And she's like, Looks like a real fucking head. My ma has really bad nerves. So you invite us walking the house like, ah, and you see me coming through the windows. She literally looked through the window at me coming into the house, and I'm like, ah, she screams if I put something out in my house with me. See, one time my sister, see years ago, remember these ogs, like big furry og boots. My sister had a white fluff pearl of wig, she's only kidding, big pearl weight, fluffy og boots. My mom was on a bed, somebody would start to grab a bottle of that coat and she's seen this white fucking little fluffy catch and jumping with my granny that was gonna shoot me. My dad was murdered running down the stairs. So my granddaugh went over and was like, What the fuck? All that shit. And then he was like, he went up the stairs and he was poking on the bed and he poked poked and it's not moving, it's not moving. So made my dad fucking drive home from work 'cause my dad's not afraid of cats, he fucking just he used to go hunting his whole life. He had to just grab it. So he's on the bed. He's like, You fucking having a laugh. It's a little bit fucking. Should have called your mate. Zoom out.

SPEAKER_02

No, they're fuck they're mad. They're like, I I don't know whether it's an age thing, like, but I found my mum too. Like she'll be, oh, you scare life out of me. I just walked in the room, like, you know, my wife's the same. Like, uh no harm. I'm not the most uh the the most dis I'm uh you know I'm coming. Like I don't I'm not I'm not like hard to say. Yeah. But then like how you can hear me? Yeah, but um so now I have to almost make noise before I'm doing, you know, to be like, oh what are you up to? I'm coming. But then at the same time, now that's a weird thing to say, don't worry, what are you up to I'm coming? But like I I I'll I'll I'll know as well at other times I'll play ended too. So I got there was a time I heard her coming. Now normally like if you go in the house, I think it's a a a man thing. Like if you go in the house, you'll go and see you know what your wife or kids are up to first. Whereas I think when you when you're a wife, you'll do other things before you'll go and say hello. Like she'll go in and sort some stuff about the kitchen then come. I always try to hide on her and pop out, like at the top of our stairs. Like I was lying along the ground. So when she walked up the stairs, I went, Alright, mate, and she fucking down the stairs. I've been waiting there for about 25 minutes, you know, waiting where is she here? Where you know, but then I'll do that, I'll hide on her and stuff where I can like and and every time there's like two hiding spaces, top of stairs or just beside the bed. And then you just look, you know, turn the light on, you'll you'll find me. But she hates it. Like, and then last night I just walked down the stairs, having when I put the kids to bed, and she's in the kitchen. I was like, Well, what are you having for dinner? And she f near die. And then and then she and then she'll have Go at me and she go fuck you. I'm like fuck me, what I do. I can just walk down leave again. Yeah, I think I think women are worse than men for the um because then there's that thing too, like there's nothing more more emasculating than go oh like you know, so you or your mates are like go fucking scurry cat there. Like you know, you have to try even in several yeah you're shitting yourself and not and that's the worst too. Like if you hear a noise in the house, what's that?

SPEAKER_01

Go you're going to go get it and like it's um but inside you're like fucking fuck because that's all a mirror fell off our wall the other the other night, and I was like, What's that noise?

SPEAKER_02

SPEAKER_01

You know, something have it hear noise, like you just throw a big bed sheet over you. Yeah, and you transcribe the perpetrator.

SPEAKER_00

So if there is someone breaking in, they go, Whaaaa!

SPEAKER_02

SPEAKER_00

Oh dude. People walking in our chapel next day.

SPEAKER_02

Where are you? Oh fucking see that that's some of the funniest shit. See, see the there was a thing during COVID, like it's going around, someone was like advertising a glory hole, right? And it's this dude, right? But it was the most, you know, because obviously you're supposed to be like it's supposed to be a surprise. It's what you're not supposed to know who's behind it. It's holding the door or not. It's the dude just stuck his address up, and when you went in, he was just holding a shape with his dick through it. And you comments are surprised too, and you're like, It was ridiculous. Like just somewhere in talk moaner or something. This guy just being on in, yeah. Oh that mid. And it was always the always him. So it was the thing. So is it your goal and being like, oh, it was always him getting his dick socked. It's not even a vanilla for something. You're like, just come on in. The guy's like, fuck, I burn a fortune.

SPEAKER_00

SPEAKER_02

I think it was a wee Mexican dude. But the guy went in, hit his face up. Hola! And I'm like, fuck.

SPEAKER_02

But imagine a shadow be if you're just going for a shit. And his neck comes through here like stick a toilet roll on it.

SPEAKER_02

Whoa! I tell you what, it's it's definitely not for my dog. He's stuck a thermometer up his horse's vets, and he does not happy camper. He's looking at me like, what are you doing to me, you bastard? You see his act. Okay, dog. He didn't like anatology. I'm just wondering, because that was a thing too. I never seen the dog's temperature. She had the thermometer, I lifted his leg up the ground. He was like, No, it's his arm. Oh no, you don't need that. And he was never I thought he looked at me like, oh, you better work. Like I did feel bad. I said, Here, don't worry, I'll do it too. You did me. Like, fucking guys are just ridiculous. Like that's uh that was so funny. The glory host, just a bed sheet with a hole in it.

SPEAKER_01

Don't mind if I do wrap the door, he answers every time. Fuck on a left, no surprise at all.

SPEAKER_02

No, it's like, oh, can I put mine through? No. Can you pass that sheet? Yeah, no, it's my sheet. No, it'll you'll ruin the illusion of it. I mean the whole idea of a glory host. Because you could get somebody just within like the knife, lob it off.

SPEAKER_01

Someone like it takes a severe bit of bravery to pick your deck inside a glory hole. Like, you never know what's on the end of that. So that's that's a different type of craziness. Like, it seems to be all these big fucking rednecks in the movies. The truckers.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah. I know I've been sitting sitting on my arse all day. Let's take my cocking around the hole and see what happens. Fuck that. He's scary. I put my hand in.

SPEAKER_02

I'll probably bring bring support, like but yeah, we're we're all right.

SPEAKER_01

Do you have a favourite who you like to travel with? Like someone who's very easy to travel with?

Sign-Off And Running Jokes

SPEAKER_02

You know what? I've only sort of I don't haven't really brought people with me, but people I've travelled with before are that are good. I've had to get used to Shane because he's very special in his own way. Has his own wee way, so yeah, you just need to leave him to do what he needs to do and then match in with the timings, and that's grand. Um I don't know, I see that's the thing. I I would say I'm pretty straightforward. Like so as long as you get there, you go you do what you need, as long as you're at the venue, that's all good. Like so. But then that's the thing too, because you want to I think now, like before, you'd be like, it's a it's a week, it's a week last year. Get the show out of the way. It's almost uh a nuisance. You know, you want to get the show done so you can whereas now it's like nah I need to just go and do the show and be sensible and whatever. So I'll I'll see you.

SPEAKER_01

Because even when you go on a show but you don't drink and you get you get straight back to what you're doing, it's like it's not a burden.

SPEAKER_02

Yeah, okay. Like I I love I love a drink, don't get me wrong, like I do. But then I know if it it goes to the drink, you have a hangover and you get the shit food in, and then you film one day and you're like, ah it's another, so you have to kind of just keep it going in some way. Like even at the minute, like I got this morning, had a wee headache and a wee cold, and I'm like, oh miserable. I'm like, nah, get out, walk a dog, pick a shit up, get the day started feeling good again now. Like, so it's like part through, like, happy days.

SPEAKER_01

Well, it's been a fucking pleasure having a lot of time. No, it's been a great crack. Yeah, enjoy it. Cheers for having glory all the way.

SPEAKER_02

No, that's what we've got to set up now. I see a curtain behind here that do does the job. Oh, cheers.
