#158 Let me bore you to sleep - Jason Newland (30th May 2019)

Hello, welcome to letmeboreyoutosleep.com My name is Jason Newland and this is Let Me Bore You To Sleep. And as you can hear, my big black squeaky chair is very active this evening. Let's sit there.

Only listen to this when you can safely close your eyes. Or did I already say that? Oh, I forget. Before I go any further, I would like to thank Susan and Linda for your donations.

It's very, very generous and kind of you and I really appreciate it. I have contacted both of these generous people personally as well. But I thought I'd do a public shout out, a public acknowledgement and thank you, you know, really, that's what this is.

And basically, I posted a message on Facebook and Twitter, just to say that, you know, it's coming to the time in a month because at the beginning of every month, I have a lot of expenses regarding the actual providing this free service. And I speak at a podcast host, and the WordPress websites, because I've got four websites on WordPress, you know, it costs me money. That's with GoDaddy.

And I've also got my main website, jasonnewland.com, which is hosted by Shopify. Plus, I got the internet that I need to pay for, which, if I didn't have the free service, I wasn't working on the websites, I kind of wouldn't really need the internet. Because it's the only thing I pretty much use the internet for.

So yeah, so just like to thank again, Susan and Linda, and just let you know if anybody else would like to help to support this free service, then you can go to paypal.me forward slash Jason Newland, paypal.me forward slash Jason Newland. And the link is on the website. Right, that's all the that stuff out of the way.

You know, it's really strange that when I go a few days without making any recordings, and then I make one like tonight, it feels like ages ago that I made a recording. It feels really weird, because it's only been maybe four days. But it seems like weeks ago.

Maybe that's because I normally, well, quite regularly, I make one every day. So I kind of getting used to doing it, you know, get used to the routine. But I'm not sure what happened on a Saturday night.

There was a lot of, I'm actually really sure what to call it, but there was quite a lot of sound locally outside. So I kind of a bit partying or whatever was going on. So I didn't really feel comfortable to make a recording with that, you know, with people shouting stuff in the background.

So I didn't do one. And then Sunday, I didn't do one. Monday, I didn't do one.

Last night, which is Tuesday. Well, actually, the night before last is now Thursday, isn't it? Anyway, Tuesday night, I had an early night. And then I went to London on Wednesday, which is yesterday.

And now it's Thursday. And I'm still up, you know, I got up quite early today, or yesterday, rather. Went up to London to visit my friend, who will soon be moving away.

So that was nice. It was, because I used to live in London, I used to, I was actually born in London. I was born in North London, when I was a baby.

That's the best time to be born, isn't it? Can you imagine being born as an adult? You'd never forgive your kid, would you? How could you forgive that? So I was, I was a baby when I was born. And also when I was born, I had two brothers. Both older than me.

I was born in a town called Enfield. And so I lived there for two years. So I was with my parents for about three to six months, I'm not sure, something like that.

And then I went and lived with foster parents for, until the age of two. And then I moved, got taken to other places, parts of the country. And then I went back to London, East London, in, what the age, I was like 19, 18 or 19, something like that.

And then I moved away again after about six months, then I moved back again. And then stayed there and I did, yeah, stayed there from 1991, January, until, I'm guessing the dates, but roughly, I think September 2001-ish. Yeah.

And then, yes, it's kind of, I've been visiting London. Because when I left, I still had some family, still had friends, people that I knew and associates and former work colleagues, you know, that kind of stuff. And then as time goes by, I kind of lost contact with people.

And, you know, back then, there wasn't any Facebook or those kinds of things, because it was the early 2000s. By the time Facebook popped up, I'd lost contact with a lot of people and they'd moved on and were doing other things. But I still visited and still helped out in the club, helped a friend out when he needed my help in the office or in the club or wherever.

And, you know, even during my university days and even after that, yeah, so I kind of helped out when I could. And then, you know, it's got to the point where I kind of only know a couple of people now in London. Notice how I slur the word London, London, London.

I actually had a beer today. So my friend, I went and visited him. And I went and I don't think the beer could be why I'm slurring.

It was only one little bottle of beer. It was lovely though. And I don't drink alcohol anymore.

So you could say, but Jason, you just said you did. And what I mean by I don't is it's not because I can't, there's no like problem there. It's just, I just stopped drinking.

Alcohol just didn't really do anything for me anymore. And when I first moved into this flat, I was drinking most nights. And it was quite good.

I'm not going to lie, it was all right. I wasn't getting drunk. I'd had maybe four cans, maybe six.

But, you know, it wasn't, I never really got drunk. Just like tipsy. And tipsy just means you keep falling over, doesn't it? Know what tipsy means? And then I got Andre.

I'm not saying Andre's the reason I stopped drinking because he's not, I don't know. I just, I don't even, I'm not sure why I stopped. But yeah, I just stopped.

And I haven't had a alcoholic drink for probably last year. I had had some vodka with my friend. And now it's just people, I don't think it was a bottle, I think it was like half a bottle.

And we just had half each with some Coke, Coca-Cola, that is. And I didn't get drunk. Which is weird, because spirits, I've never really been, never really done spirits.

I have. I don't know why I said that. But I've not been like a spirit person.

Like my dad loves scotch and whiskey and stuff like that. I can't really do that. I can't do scotch.

I think that'd be the thing that he'd like most in his life. Or not in his life, but for me to sort of drink some scotch with him, he'd probably like that. But I can't.

I can't. I just don't like it. But I do like, what's the one called? The American, it's whiskey, but it's not really whiskey.

Jack Daniels. That's it. I like Jack Daniels.

Which is weird, because for me, it doesn't taste anything like whiskey. And that's the thing with whiskey is the taste that I don't like. And Jack Daniels was all right.

So I went through a little phase where I used to drink Jack Daniels and Coke. I'd buy a bottle or whatever. And it's quite nice.

But and I haven't done that for a long time. I remember last year, I started buying these cans. And I'd saw it in the off-license.

It was a can of... Actually, it wasn't. My friend had one. I thought, ooh.

So when I was in the off-license, I just thought, ah, I'll have a look. I'll have a look. You know, I just want to have a little peek.

I don't think it's going to change my life, but I'll have a look. I'll have a look at it anyway. So I looked in the fridge of this off-license.

Basically, if you go into the off-license, it's just like, not a happy shopper, but it's a chain of... It's like a post office off-license. They sell bread and biscuits, you know, kind of newspapers. Yeah, news agents as well.

It's kind of a bit of everything. And scratch cards, but I don't buy scratch cards anymore. I used to.

I wonder if he's going to come and give me a cuddle. I had someone minked off. I can't think.

It was on Twitter today. Because I go on Twitter every day just to check, just to see. Because I post everything I do onto Twitter, but I don't need to go onto Twitter to post it.

I post it directly from Spreaker, you know, the podcast when I make it. Share on Facebook on all three pages. I've got my normal Facebook page, my... What is it? Just my Jason Newland hypnotist page.

I've got about 33,000 likes on that page or something. And then I've got a specific Let Me Boy To Sleep page on Facebook, which you can check out. Again, on the letmeboytosleep.com website, there's a link to the Facebook page, and you can join a bunch of other people.

And every new recording I upload, you know, I'll post on there so you can... It's just another way, again, of seeing what I've done and the latest and all that stuff. And it gives you an opportunity, if you so wish to do so, you know, leave a comment or say hello or, you know, say, let me know how you're getting on with these recordings. But yeah, I went onto Twitter today, and it might have been yesterday.

It was probably late evening, possibly nine or 10. But I still classed it as today because I've not been to sleep yet. Does that make sense? I know it's a different day because now... What time is it? 1.23 in the morning on Thursday.

But for me, it's still Wednesday because I haven't gone to bed yet. But you may think, well, what if I was to stay up for 48 hours, which means we'd be into Friday. Would it still be Wednesday to me? And I don't know because I'm not going to stay up for 48 hours.

Because I generally find getting to sleep quite easy. It's, you know, especially when I've made these recordings, it tires me out. I get so sleepy when I make them.

And especially when it's late. This is quite early for me. But if it was like five o'clock in the morning, I'd be really... Sometimes I will actually be falling asleep, which is like... Especially when I do the deep sleep whisper hypnosis ones, because it's a lot slower.

It's a lot more focused, but not focused. If that makes any sense, it's more... It's a much slower pace. Not that this is a fast pace, obviously, because I don't think that that would really work.

I think if I was talking really fast, you know, I don't think that would be conducive to a relaxing state of mind. Not for me, at least. But then that's the thing, because with hypnosis, if you see a hypnotist on stage, or if you hear them, even like in a movie, or like even a caricature, you know, a comedy sketch, or there's a show called Little Britain, comedy show, which is very famous in England.

And I think it was quite popular in America as well. But there's a caricature of a stage hypnotist. And he'd say, oh, look into my eyes, not around my eyes.

And it was funny. It was really good. Possibly sent hypnosis back by about 30 years.

But it is funny. But there's that idea that hypnotists, like stage hypnotists, they speak very quickly. But part of that is about not boring the audience.

Because, you know, imagine me doing stage hypnosis. It'd be the audience were hypnotized. The people on the stage would be asleep.

And there'd be no show. There'd just be me standing on the stage, listening to a bunch of people snoring, because I'm so slow. Everything I do is really slow.

And not everything, but, you know, a lot of things I like to, it's not so much that I like to do things right. I just like to take my time in doing things. You know, so, say for an example, I'm at work.

I used to work. And, you know, my boss would say, that wasn't done right. And I'd say, I know it was done wrong.

But I took my time making sure it was done wrong, the right way. And then my boss would say, what does that even mean? I said, I don't know. That's why I did it wrong.

If I knew what it meant, I'd have done it right. Then he'd say, you have to, you have to redo the foundations for this building before it collapses. I said, okay, okay.

So it was kind of, I do wonder, I like the idea of doing, of touring, you know, like doing a stage show, not so much a stage show, but a kind of, like a meet and greet, Q&A, hello, goodbye, that kind of, I just want to get paid. I think it'd be nice to do something on stage where people would want to see me, would want to meet me, perhaps meet the person behind the voice, possibly. I don't know.

The thing is, I know that there's an audience. But I think if I went to each country of the world that listens to me, which is most of the countries, probably, well, a big amount of countries listen, you know, people in different countries listen, I could probably fill a small room in each, maybe a kitchen or a bathroom in each country. So I could probably get maybe five or 10 people in each country.

So it'd be like a world tour of bathrooms. And if it was in the bathroom, I wouldn't need a microphone because of the echo, you know, you know what I mean? Or is that resonance? Echo, tenants, timber? I don't know. So yeah, I could.

The thing is, though, to cover the costs of traveling to each country, to have an audience of 10 people per country, you know, with the airfare, hotel costs, advertising costs, plus earning a living, I suppose, as well, I'd probably need to charge about £1,000 per person. And I don't see that happening anytime soon. Can you imagine paying £1,000 to sit in a public toilet just to meet me? Yeah, you'd want more for your money, wouldn't you? That doesn't even move away from that.

So I could like, the idea of traveling and meeting people, because I've met some people online, on Facebook, on Twitter, on YouTube, people that have left comments on my websites over the years. And it would be nice to meet people in person, you know, to have maybe an audience of a couple of hundred people. And then just go on and I can ask questions and maybe do a bit of hypnosis with individual people, get them on stage and do a few little demonstrations and have a laugh, you know, just play around really.

Yeah, quite like the idea of that. Nothing serious, you know, just nice, light-hearted. And at a grand each, that's £200,000 a pop.

That's not bad, is it? £200,000 a country. I'll tell you something, when I travel to a country each day, I'll try and get to a different country. If I was getting paid £200,000 a day, I'd make sure that tour lasted for a long time.

I'd still be doing it at £93,000. Oh, I haven't missed. A hundred million dollars just by talking about rubbish and talking nothing, talking nothing about nothing for years.

Can you imagine if I'm still doing this when I'm 80 or 89, 93? And I suppose my voice will sound different then. I think I'll still sound younger than I am because I don't think I've ever sounded my age or sounded younger than I am. But my voice has got deeper.

You should have heard me when I was three. Proper high-pitched. Seriously, we had a dog and the dog couldn't handle my voice.

I used to yell every time I spoke, used to run away. So, you know, my voice has changed but I always had a young voice. I was like younger than what I am because I can't believe I'm going to be 49 in August.

So those of you that want to buy me birthday presents and stuff like that, you know, feel free. I mean, really, I don't, I don't, you know, I'm not trying to say it's a good idea but I think if that's what you need to do to show your appreciation for all the, I would like to say hard work but clearly I don't put a lot of effort into this. It's just me talking rubbish but I do it quite regularly.

I actually do put quite a lot of hard work into the podcasts. Not hard work but lots of effort. A lot of work goes on behind the scenes but I've talked about that before.

That bores me even more than I bore you but it's so repetitive. It's like, it's like going to the toilet, like doing a wee. It's like, why have I got to go so often? Can't I just do one long one in the morning and one long one at night and just have the rest of the day free to pursue other options in life, other opportunities, unencumbered by, you know, the little one needing my attention? It's not that I always need to go to the toilet.

I'm, you know, I've got nothing going on there but see what happens if there's anyone younger listening to this and as time goes by everybody will be younger because I will be like the oldest person on the planet at some point doing this. Welcome to let me bore you to sleep. That'll be me and I'll be saying I know I sound a lot younger than I am.

I'm actually 400 years old and I think it'd be really, I think that'd be good. I don't want to kind of, it's not like I want to kind of, you know, wish my life away and become older than I'm ready, you know, quicker than I need to but I just wonder, you know, you ever wonder what's it going to be like? Will I still be doing this? Because I've got a thousand recordings made since 2006 but I'm now recording more sessions than at any other time during my career as a, you know, offering this free service. I know technically it's not a career but for me it is.

This is my life. This is the only thing that I, that I care about apart from Andre. This and Andre and technically you and Andre because I'm doing this.

I suppose indirectly I care about you, even people I've never met because that's why I'm doing it. But, you know, Andre is my, he's my number one obviously because he's my son. He wasn't happy with me today because I was out all day.

I come back. Hadn't made too much of a mess but I know that he gets up to stuff when I'm not here because he moves things around so I'm not sure what he's done. You know, I have to kind of check stuff to make sure he hasn't.

done anything too naughty and I know that he heard me come in but he didn't bother to get up. He just stayed asleep behind the, behind the door. He just stayed there, completely ignored me.

I came up with my friend, my friend's dog. Normally he'd be all over my friend. He's known him since he was a baby.

Not, not since my friend was a baby but since he was a baby and he's known the dog, you know, for the last year and a half or whatever. He didn't bother, wasn't interested, completely blanked us. I'm not sure why I'm mentioning that but that's what happened and now he's, he's still ignoring me a little bit.

I think he just, he came, I did have a cuddle earlier. He did come and give me a cuddle but he's not given me much attention and usually he does. Usually he's jumping all over me, wanting me to take him out for a walk and he hasn't bothered at all tonight and I've been home since, I don't know, just before nine o'clock.

So yeah, he's, I don't know what's going on with him. Last night I was in bed. I went to bed early because I was decided to go to London and I'll, you know, with the, with my condition, I, you know, I don't always manage to get out of the house, don't, for weeks on end sometimes.

I don't, I don't kind of socialise, don't make the effort or I make plans and cancel them and, you know, that kind of stuff but because my friend's about to move away and I'm not sure when I'm going to see him again and because he's been, had such an important impact on my life, I didn't buy that. I don't mean he didn't give me chlamydia or anything. He's, you know, he's a good friend and he's just helped me a lot over the years and he, you know, so I wanted to visit him but I just, you know, I've been meaning to visit for ages and last night, it was like early, maybe late afternoon, I made the decision.

I called him up and I said I'm going to come and visit you tomorrow and then I can't, I had to do it. Sort of in my mind, I've made the decision and I was going to stick to it no matter what and I went to bed about 8. 30 in the evening.

I was hungry as well because I didn't have any food in the cupboard so I was just like oh because I didn't get, didn't get any money till today so I was like oh, my tummy was grumbling, I was feeling sorry for myself but I thought I just got to stay asleep till 10 o'clock the next day or whatever time I wake up but I set my alarm for 10, then I'll get up and I'll get something to eat at the train station but what happened is I woke up at half past one and if

you're bearing in mind I've been asleep pretty much all day, you know, during the day, during that day before so I didn't really need to go to sleep but I woke up half one, I got up, watched telly, did a bit of internet stuff I thought about making a session but I just wasn't really, my brain wasn't really very active enough to do anything, it was just a bit groggy and I was like oh god I need to go to sleep, I need to go back to sleep but you know I wasn't tired because of

being, I've been asleep, you know, spent so much time asleep previous because I've been staying up all night for probably nearly a year if not a lot longer and then sleeping during the day which has been a choice, that's how I like to, because at night it's quiet and I can make recordings, during the day it ain't so quiet, it's as simple as that, at two o'clock in the morning there's not much happening, four or five o'clock in the morning still not much happening but there might be the birds singing outside which I think is

beautiful, it's, I think it's one of the most beautiful sounds and it's just a personal thing for me, I like that, also I like hearing pensioners fart when they don't realise they're doing it, you know, really elderly people, that makes me laugh, I think it's brilliant, I remember my nan did that one day, she just got up from the chair, I think she went to make, she put the kettle on and she sat down to talk to me and she got up to because the kettle had boiled and he let off the biggest fart, didn't

even notice it and it's like, I was trying not to laugh, I did laugh but I was quiet, I laughed quietly, it was brilliant, you know, but she's my nan so I wasn't going to say anything like, oh great fart nan, good on you, here's a card that I had specially prepared for this occasion, you know, here's an award, so no, it was, you know, but it was brilliant because I always know when I've farted, like if it's a loud fart I always know, apart from the fact that I can feel it, but I can,

you know, I can hear it and it's like, wow, I'm always listening out for a fart, wherever I am, always, I don't know why, something about fart sounds that I just enjoy, I just love it when people, I don't know if, the thing is they might actually hear it and just pretend that it hasn't happened but they can't get away with that with me, you know, I've learnt to feel vibrations, so if my hearing ever goes, I'm still going to be able to detect farts, even, you know, ones that are not obvious with other senses,

I'll be able to just detect the small vibration of air and then I'll be able to giggle to myself like a small child that I am sometimes, see part of my brain's grown up but the fart part of my brain is still very young, the fart part, the fart part of my brain is very immature but the caring part of my brain is quite mature, so it's just give and take I suppose and I suppose, you know, some people who get offended, I can't believe you're talking about farts, I've come here so I can get

some sleep, you're talking about farts all the time, well I don't talk about them all the time but I do try and fit in a regular dose if I can, it's like to inject a little bit of fartiness into these recordings because I think it's a good test of character when, you know, all said and done in this life that we live, this world that we live in, if someone's able to be offended by a fart or even talking about a fart, that's something that needs to be addressed, you need to let it go, that

might be the reason why someone struggles to sleep if they're not able to let the simplest thing like a fart go because it is about letting stuff go, it's about relaxing, it's about letting go of some of those limiting beliefs, you know, those beliefs that other people should agree with us I remember someone once sent me a card and on it it said, it was just one piece of card, I think it might have had a picture, a picture of a goose or something, I don't know, and it said you have two choices in life,

you can be right or you can be happy, but you can't be both so you can't be right all the time because you'll never be happy if you need to be right all the time, I think that was the point, I wonder why he sent it to me, I saw what I did, I said to him, I think you're wrong, he said, what do you mean?

I said, I'm joking, he said, oh okay, he said, I don't get it, I said, no, you're talking about me being right or, you know, right or happy, I was saying you're wrong, I've chosen to be right he said, no, I still don't get it, I can't, I said, don't you understand what I'm saying, he said, yeah, but it's just not funny and I got so angry no, I didn't, I didn't really get angry, I think part of the reason why I didn't, when I was very young, I didn't want to get angry, ever since

I watched the first episode of the Hulk on telly, I just thought, oh, so that's what happens when you get angry and I was worried that people wouldn't like me when I got angry and I have to tell people, don't make me angry, you wouldn't like me when I'm angry and I thought, that's a mouthful, isn't it, and people think I'm just copying the Hulk because it was quite a popular television show back then, when I was but a child another thing I used to worry about is, one of my favourite things was spinning around

and getting dizzy and then falling onto the floor and then I'll watch Wonder Woman for the first time and I thought, oh no, I'm going to turn into a a voluptuous lady wearing blue and spangled coloured corset, that's not totally true it wasn't that I was worried that that would happen, I was more worried that it wouldn't happen I tried and tried, nothing it's ridiculous, it's really, really bad, you know, when you really, you put all your put your hope in like something like that, I should have tested it out first before I picked a

fight with the rugby team, I said, come on, that's not, that's not real football that's shaped like in a squash deck, that's a squash deck that is and I said, come on then, and they all like started running towards me and I just twirled around thinking that I was going to become super human, well Wonder Woman basically, but nothing happened there was one similarity though, there was definitely stars, I saw stars, I did, so that was good actually I was always too fast, I used to be able to run quite fast, there was a time

when I used to run and I used to run low, so my head was low, but my knees would go too high and I used to knee myself in the floor face while I was running, it's true and to this day I don't know why, why did my knees go so high, I don't think I'm ever going to know I used to run through the high street and I used to zig in and out of people, jump over prams, all seriously just, and my reflex was so good that I rarely landed on the baby, rarely

ever did I, you know, land onto a pram, it didn't happen very often and when it did I managed to keep running and it was just, it's amazing, it's just like everything became in slow motion and I was zigging in and out of people and I'd jump through people's legs and run up walls, it was really great, sometimes I'd fly, it was very, it's powerful stuff if it was real, now I used to run really fast, I did, but then I was brought up on a council estate in Newcastle, it's a very rough council estate,

there were lots of gangs and rough kids and stuff and I didn't have to run fast because of me, but my brother, my older brother was, he had a mouth on him, so what he'd do is he'd shout insults out at groups of kids and then he'd be gone, it's like he would disappear and it'd just be me on my own and I think sometimes it looked like it was me that shouted it out and I once tried to say look, look at the height difference, I'm like three foot two or whatever, my brother's a

lot taller than me where you were standing back there, you know, maybe a hundred, hundred foot away or whatever, if it was me that said it you'd have heard it differently it sounded different because of the echo, because of my, the volume of my voice, but also because of my voice is higher, higher pitched, but they didn't seem to care, didn't seem to be interested in that so what I did is while they were discussing whether or not it was a valid reason and I just ran through their legs and just ran off, they couldn't

catch me and I'd get home and my brother would say, whilst they caught you then, did they?

I said no, he said well why have you got two black eyes? I said I was kneesing it, I kneed myself again in the face while I was running and they laughed I didn't think it was funny, I did that swimming as well, remember I used to swim underwater because I always found it easier and when I was a kid, I don't know if you remember Dallas, Dallas is a TV show that there's a documentary or something that used to be on and Bobby Ewing was one of the main characters in this documentary and JR Ewing was the star, the outright star of the show and Bobby Ewing was his brother.

Now before Bobby Ewing moved to Dallas and became an oil millionaire with his brother and I don't know why his brother never knew this, never mentioned it during Dallas but he was, he used to live underwater and another documentary called The Man From Atlantis and he used to have webbed hands and webbed feet so he was very special and he could breathe underwater and he had, he lived in a swim, big swimming pool and it had like chairs and a table, television, I'm not sure if it had an aquarium, I don't think it did but

there was no electric fire or anything like that so I don't know how he kept warm but and that's how he lived and then he would come out and he could breathe for a certain amount of time and he'd start flipping around and have to get into some water and you have to take a little bottle of water around with him just in case we could pour it over his head so he didn't turn into a fish and he'd, he used to swim underwater, his whole body would like move backwards and up and down, up

and down so that's what I did, it's kind of like a big flip, it was a bit like a big flipper, if you think of a flipper that someone would wear on their foot and you know someone that was diving and they have you know the big blue, they used to be black or blue but I think they probably get them in different colors but I don't think that's really that important, possibly yellow ones now and but it's like his whole body was like a flipper, it's so bendy and so he was, he used to

swim underwater and what I did is I thought that was the right way to swim, so I used to swim, I could swim a whole length, possibly two lengths underwater, the thing is when you're underwater, especially if you've got your eyes closed because the chlorine and vinegar or whatever else is in the water, I kind of kept banging my head on the side which was a bit annoying but it's so freeing to not have to try and be above the water, being under the water just felt more natural, I like the idea of kind of

mixing the two, so instead of being a man from Atlantis, I like the idea of Wonder Woman where she could turn and she'd become like the deep sea diving version of Wonder Woman.

What I couldn't figure out is when she used to turn around, how did she, what was different, because I used to watch it, you know, regularly, in fact it's one of those shows that grew on me as I got older, I don't, can't really understand why but I saw it again when I was in my 20s, it was on Sky Television and it was about 1994 and I was in Living in Ireland with my friend and Wonder Woman was on and I just saw it through new eyes and I really enjoyed it but from a

different perspective because a lot of TV shows I've found is, I loved them when I was a kid but then as I got older, you know, it just, I don't know, things like The Exorcist, Chainsaw Massacre, things like that, they were great when I was a little kid but as I got older, once I was an adult, I was like, ah, this is just silly, but Wonder Woman actually was better when I was an adult and I noticed new things that I hadn't noticed before and then I watched it again, probably a few years ago

and it was on ITV3, I think, and I noticed stuff again that I hadn't noticed.

At the end of every single episode, as far as I'm aware, she did a big smile to the camera, like a big, like her eyes always kind of glistened anyway, not glistened as in, not like glaucoma kind of like, but just like shiny, her eyes were quite shiny but she always had a big smile, like a big, big smile, it was really a bit, looked really genuine, beautiful, big, it wasn't like fake, she was smiling with her eyes as well, which is weird because eyes don't have teeth but, you know, it's a saying, isn't it?

Smiled with her eyes and I'd never noticed that before, never noticed, not that she had teeth or that she had, you know, a face or anything, but just I didn't notice that idiosyncrasy, that little thing that was in every episode and I thought that's, you know, really nice, that's a really nice thing to do, it's, because no matter how, because it's a very realistic show, obviously, I mean, there's very little that was more realistic than Wonder Woman, it was quite gritty and hard-hitting and very, very political and, you know, it was, it really dealt with

the issues of the time, which to be fair, still holds now, it's very, you know, so, but the missing bull, that was very, very important and the bull went missing and no one knew where it had gone, they didn't know, was it Tom or was it Bobby that took the bull and, you know, that was a very, very important thing and that episode, it just, for me, what I got out of that was, you shouldn't take bulls, shouldn't steal bulls, I always remember that and I must admit, my whole life, never stolen a bull, I

saw a bull once in a field, didn't even have a twinge to want to go and steal it, so it's very moralistic and it helped me get through life and it definitely helped me get through some of my, yeah, some periods, so I'm going to go now, thank you for listening, see you next time, bye.
