Please only listen when you can safe the closed short eyes.

00:00:14.119 --> 00:00:23.800
This is let me bore you to sleep. And it's

8
00:01:10.120 --> 00:01:18.879
Mm hmm, okay, all right, that's weird. It's clicked on

9
00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:24.480
something and it's disappeared. Where is it? Gone? There? We

10
00:01:24.560 --> 00:01:45.760
go do do do do do do? Oh bory just

11
00:01:45.879 --> 00:01:49.879
upping a quick look. What is? What is? What is?

12
00:01:49.959 --> 00:02:06.400
What is? What is is? Mhm? Where was it? Sorry,

13
00:02:06.400 --> 00:02:10.039
I'm just got distracted. I'm trying to find something. Okay.

14
00:02:10.360 --> 00:02:14.560
I did record the last couple of recordings I did

15
00:02:17.240 --> 00:02:20.400
because I released one today this morning that I did

16
00:02:20.479 --> 00:02:23.479
it last night, and I recorded it last night rather

17
00:02:24.240 --> 00:02:28.400
a bit sniffy. Today, it's weird. It's cold. It's cold

18
00:02:28.439 --> 00:02:33.560
it inside, then it is outside. It's very windy outside

19
00:02:34.919 --> 00:02:37.840
and overcast and there, and it's been raining a bit,

20
00:02:41.639 --> 00:02:45.400
I took him out, Vinnie. I took Vinnie out for

21
00:02:45.439 --> 00:02:49.479
a while earlier. I took him out quite early, if

22
00:02:49.479 --> 00:02:55.280
it was about quarter past eight. I got back about

23
00:02:55.280 --> 00:02:59.560
five past nine. I took him out again about an

24
00:02:59.599 --> 00:03:04.159
hour ago, but just in the garden because I didn't

25
00:03:04.159 --> 00:03:09.479
really fancy going out. I didn't, you know, just yeah,

26
00:03:10.120 --> 00:03:13.719
but there's there's things falling off the tree in the garden.

27
00:03:16.159 --> 00:03:18.000
I guess it would be in the garden. I mean,

28
00:03:18.039 --> 00:03:19.560
if I've just gone in the garden, I wouldn't be

29
00:03:19.599 --> 00:03:21.919
complaining about things falling off a tree on the beach

30
00:03:22.039 --> 00:03:27.240
or I but you know, there's there's whole branches falling down.

31
00:03:29.319 --> 00:03:34.719
Now I know that they they're deceivingly heavy, and there's

32
00:03:34.719 --> 00:03:38.879
sudden these branches and trees they look light because they're

33
00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:43.000
up high and they just flopping around in the wind.

34
00:03:43.240 --> 00:03:46.240
But when they actually break off, some of them are

35
00:03:46.280 --> 00:03:49.199
the size of my torso they're not but you know

36
00:03:49.199 --> 00:03:52.800
what I mean, they're quite heavy, so I don't really

37
00:03:52.800 --> 00:03:57.199
want to be directly underneath them. But Vinnie, it was

38
00:03:57.319 --> 00:04:01.319
pulling me towards a tree. It's almost like it's already

39
00:04:01.400 --> 00:04:08.080
set up a booby trap or something, so yesterday I

40
00:04:08.199 --> 00:04:11.879
did Monday's Boring Objects, which something is a bit of

41
00:04:11.919 --> 00:04:15.599
a weird one. Actually it went off, it went off

42
00:04:15.599 --> 00:04:19.959
in weird directions. And I also did let Me Bore

43
00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:25.720
Your Pain Away number thirty seven Relaxation, and I released

44
00:04:25.800 --> 00:04:29.759
that this morning. So I do have a website Jasonnewland

45
00:04:29.800 --> 00:04:34.240
dot com where all my recordings are also have a

46
00:04:34.279 --> 00:04:40.480
Facebook page called Jason Newland's Boring Group which you can join.

47
00:04:40.959 --> 00:04:46.399
The link is on my website as well, and a

48
00:04:46.399 --> 00:04:50.319
YouTube channel at Jason Newland where all my all six

49
00:04:50.399 --> 00:04:57.639
versions of the recording will be uploaded to YouTube. As

50
00:04:57.720 --> 00:05:02.160
far as making videos, I don't think I'm going to

51
00:05:02.199 --> 00:05:09.000
be bothering doing that anymore. I think I've it's kind

52
00:05:09.000 --> 00:05:13.120
of quite difficult to make them here regularly. I could

53
00:05:13.120 --> 00:05:16.839
do the odd one, but there's so little light coming

54
00:05:16.879 --> 00:05:19.879
into this building now because of the huge tree out

55
00:05:19.920 --> 00:05:25.079
of the front wow, the back rather and the neighbors

56
00:05:25.480 --> 00:05:29.319
screaming and shouting and stuff. It's just and then Vinnie

57
00:05:29.360 --> 00:05:35.519
making noise. It's quite difficult, and so I'm just going

58
00:05:35.560 --> 00:05:40.199
to stick to just the podcast, I think, well, just

59
00:05:40.240 --> 00:05:48.319
the podcast, just my voice. Yeah, I'm trying to think,

60
00:05:48.439 --> 00:05:54.759
what was it that I did last Tuesday? What subject

61
00:05:55.199 --> 00:06:06.959
did I do? Let me bore your pain away, stress relief.

62
00:06:09.279 --> 00:06:09.319
Q?

63
00:06:09.480 --> 00:06:16.480
And A Friday Trivia Tuesday I spoke Okay, trivia Tuesday,

64
00:06:16.480 --> 00:06:22.199
I talked about hypnosis. So what I'll do is I'll

65
00:06:22.240 --> 00:06:27.279
talk about something else. I don't know what, though. What

66
00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:33.319
should I talk about? What trivia trivial? What subject? Can

67
00:06:33.360 --> 00:06:38.480
I do it? Trivia on? Perhaps I should have been

68
00:06:38.519 --> 00:06:41.720
a bit more prepared, but I'm un clearly, I'm not

69
00:06:41.839 --> 00:06:49.079
am I. I don't know what would be an interested

70
00:06:49.160 --> 00:06:56.279
subject or a boring subject? But interesting to me, boring

71
00:06:56.319 --> 00:07:01.759
to everyone else. It's chilly, mind you. I do have

72
00:07:01.839 --> 00:07:08.160
the window open, so I can't really complain, but I have.

73
00:07:08.399 --> 00:07:11.319
I can complain because I just did. But I love

74
00:07:11.560 --> 00:07:14.839
I like to have the window open. I changed love

75
00:07:14.920 --> 00:07:16.639
to like because that seemed a bit of a weird.

76
00:07:17.360 --> 00:07:23.000
Love is a it's a you know, it's a It's

77
00:07:23.000 --> 00:07:28.560
a big word, isn't it. I just love having a

78
00:07:28.600 --> 00:07:35.360
window open. I like it? Do I love it?

79
00:07:35.399 --> 00:07:35.839
I don't know.

80
00:07:39.639 --> 00:07:41.720
Should I get one who recording? Maybe?

81
00:07:43.480 --> 00:07:43.600
So?

82
00:07:43.600 --> 00:07:51.360
What can I talk about? Mm hmmm. Sometimes I get

83
00:07:51.399 --> 00:07:55.279
a little bit muddled up between the boring objects and

84
00:07:55.319 --> 00:07:58.800
the Trivia Tuesday, Because when I'm thinking there's something, I'll

85
00:07:58.839 --> 00:08:03.160
start thinking about things that I've done, and then to

86
00:08:03.240 --> 00:08:06.240
realize this isn't about what I've done. This is about

87
00:08:07.120 --> 00:08:12.399
trivia about a subject. Isn't it so? Or that I

88
00:08:12.519 --> 00:08:17.120
can delve a little bit into you know, I can

89
00:08:17.240 --> 00:08:20.360
say whatever one can't I really? But I try and

90
00:08:20.959 --> 00:08:27.040
stick to the rules, very limited rules, very very very

91
00:08:27.279 --> 00:08:33.039
tiny parameters. What could I let's have a look. What

92
00:08:33.240 --> 00:08:37.679
can I can? I can I talk about? What's an

93
00:08:37.679 --> 00:08:47.000
interesting thing? Mobile phones? Should we talk about mobile phones? No,

94
00:08:47.519 --> 00:08:56.759
let's talk about podcasts. Yeah, so I'm gonna ask chet

95
00:08:56.840 --> 00:09:18.039
GPT to find me about what am I doing? Mobile phones? No?

96
00:09:22.919 --> 00:09:27.200
What is it I was going to do? Not mobile phones, podcasts,

97
00:09:27.240 --> 00:09:42.879
podcasts about podcasts and from Yeah, okay, let's see what

98
00:09:42.919 --> 00:09:58.639
comes up. Check check factual facts. All right, just see

99
00:09:58.639 --> 00:10:06.679
what comes up. I don't even remember the first time

100
00:10:06.720 --> 00:10:16.679
I even heard of the term podcasts. This is interesting. Okay,

101
00:10:19.799 --> 00:10:27.159
So the term podcasts come from combining combining iPod and broadcast.

102
00:10:28.360 --> 00:10:33.720
That makes sense, isn't that pod cast? iPod? I had

103
00:10:33.720 --> 00:10:37.120
an iPod. I didn't just have an iPod. I had

104
00:10:37.799 --> 00:10:43.519
the bestest iPod in the whole world. Like really, I

105
00:10:43.519 --> 00:10:48.559
think it was two hundred and fifty gigabytes and it was.

106
00:10:49.120 --> 00:10:52.200
I got it when I was at university and I

107
00:10:52.279 --> 00:10:56.320
had so much stuff on there, not just music, but

108
00:10:57.399 --> 00:11:07.200
I downloaded all audio trainings, hypnosis trainings, NLP trainings, so

109
00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:11.600
much stuff. I mean, honestly, hundreds and hundreds of hours

110
00:11:12.200 --> 00:11:20.360
of hypnosis trainings that I would listen to, and for

111
00:11:20.399 --> 00:11:29.879
some reason it got chucked out. So the term podcast

112
00:11:30.039 --> 00:11:34.200
was coined by Ben Hammersley. So I'll just let you know,

113
00:11:37.679 --> 00:11:47.080
don't use any of this information I give you as fact.

114
00:11:48.000 --> 00:11:50.720
You know, don't get into an argument with someone about it,

115
00:11:50.879 --> 00:11:53.879
like because it might not be true. I'm just reading

116
00:11:53.919 --> 00:11:58.120
what it comes up with. It might all be fibbs.

117
00:12:00.080 --> 00:12:05.600
So Ben Hamsley in two thousand and four, in an

118
00:12:05.679 --> 00:12:10.159
article for The Guardian, came up with the term podcast.

119
00:12:11.440 --> 00:12:19.039
According to this, Dave Winter created the first audio RSS

120
00:12:19.200 --> 00:12:28.600
feed in two thousand and three, laying the groundwork for podcasting. Now,

121
00:12:28.840 --> 00:12:36.440
an RSS feed is something something syndication, So all it

122
00:12:36.519 --> 00:12:40.960
means really is I'll give you an example. So I

123
00:12:41.200 --> 00:12:49.440
create my podcast on spreaker. So my very main podcast

124
00:12:51.000 --> 00:12:58.519
is Hypnosis of Sleeping deeply. That's my main podcast. But

125
00:12:58.639 --> 00:13:03.960
let's go back to say Relax lot of that that's

126
00:13:04.080 --> 00:13:07.759
where I put all of my recordings, but also got

127
00:13:07.799 --> 00:13:12.440
the let Me Buoy You to Sleep podcast, which is

128
00:13:12.440 --> 00:13:24.480
my second main podcast, and so upload the recordings there

129
00:13:24.519 --> 00:13:35.480
all six versions. The RSS is it's basically RSS feed,

130
00:13:35.879 --> 00:13:39.600
it's a website, it's a s breaker show, and then

131
00:13:39.600 --> 00:13:42.360
whatever the show is in in episodes forward slash feed.

132
00:13:44.679 --> 00:13:50.639
I'm not sure if it's yeah, yeah, that's all it does.

133
00:13:50.919 --> 00:13:54.080
So what it does is it then spreads whoever's got

134
00:13:54.120 --> 00:14:00.399
that feed, Apple Podcasts for example, Spotify, all of different

135
00:14:00.480 --> 00:14:07.440
podcast apps that are out there will then update the

136
00:14:07.519 --> 00:14:11.639
newest recordings. So I guess the fact that it's got

137
00:14:11.679 --> 00:14:14.840
syndication in there it is a little bit just like

138
00:14:15.519 --> 00:14:20.159
syndicating what they do on radio shows or TV shows

139
00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:25.639
maybe where one particular episode goes out to all the

140
00:14:25.679 --> 00:14:29.080
different channels. It's a little bit like that. I'm not

141
00:14:29.600 --> 00:14:38.080
think I've really explained it very well. But two yeah,

142
00:14:38.120 --> 00:14:41.519
two thousand and three, because I remember, because I started

143
00:14:42.840 --> 00:14:47.720
pretty much yeah two thousand and six, I think I

144
00:14:47.799 --> 00:15:02.480
got my first podcast and I started using podcasts. The yeah,

145
00:15:02.519 --> 00:15:12.639
because ah yeah, I'm just I just remembering stuff. So

146
00:15:12.840 --> 00:15:18.759
Christopher Leiden's Radio Open Source is considered one of the

147
00:15:18.799 --> 00:15:26.600
first true podcasts, launched in two thousand and three. Okay,

148
00:15:26.679 --> 00:15:34.000
I've not heard of that one. Adam Curry developed iPod.

149
00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:40.559
I remember that, an application that allowed users to download

150
00:15:40.879 --> 00:15:48.120
Internet radio broadcasts to their iPods. I remember ipoder. I

151
00:15:48.159 --> 00:15:51.480
think they used to do that for podcasts as well.

152
00:15:51.879 --> 00:15:56.200
I think because there used to be these different websites

153
00:15:56.240 --> 00:15:59.919
where you just added your ISS feed of your podcast

154
00:16:00.519 --> 00:16:05.960
and it then distributed it to different places. So I

155
00:16:06.039 --> 00:16:08.759
used to like he used to ping it, and I

156
00:16:08.840 --> 00:16:11.559
used to call it, so I used all of those

157
00:16:12.279 --> 00:16:16.080
back in the day. I'm sure I heard a little

158
00:16:16.159 --> 00:16:21.279
kid thoses walking the dogs and it was this. I

159
00:16:21.279 --> 00:16:27.440
don't five kids walk past, no more than probably nine

160
00:16:27.519 --> 00:16:30.440
or ten, And I'm sure I heard one of them say,

161
00:16:31.159 --> 00:16:35.200
back in the day, I used to climb that tree, Like,

162
00:16:35.840 --> 00:16:37.720
what do you mean back in the end of the day?

163
00:16:37.799 --> 00:16:44.559
Do you mean last week? Back in the day. Apple

164
00:16:45.039 --> 00:16:56.080
integrated podcasts into iTunes in two thousand and five, so

165
00:17:01.039 --> 00:17:07.039
that doesn't okay, Yeah, so two thousand and five, significantly

166
00:17:07.480 --> 00:17:13.599
boosting the medium's popularity. So that was before my time,

167
00:17:14.319 --> 00:17:18.039
you know, before I started doing what I do. The

168
00:17:18.079 --> 00:17:24.039
first video podcast, and I also didn't have I didn't

169
00:17:24.079 --> 00:17:29.200
have my first podcast my iPod. I think my first

170
00:17:29.240 --> 00:17:34.640
one was in two thousand and eight. The first iPod

171
00:17:34.680 --> 00:17:39.160
I bought your manual thing. I just didn't I wasn't

172
00:17:39.200 --> 00:17:41.200
interested in them. But once I bought it, I was

173
00:17:41.240 --> 00:17:47.000
like Wow. And back then you could download stuff for free,

174
00:17:47.319 --> 00:17:52.480
like any album you wanted. Everything was free back then.

175
00:17:53.519 --> 00:17:58.720
It's not anymore the first video The thing is, I

176
00:17:58.759 --> 00:18:01.599
didn't feel bad about nloading most of the stuff I

177
00:18:01.680 --> 00:18:04.559
downloaded because it was just copies of albums that I'd

178
00:18:04.599 --> 00:18:08.200
already purchased anyway, just a lot easier to listen to

179
00:18:08.279 --> 00:18:14.599
them on the iPad or on the iPod. The first

180
00:18:15.599 --> 00:18:23.240
video podcast or vodcast vodcast is believed to be Dead

181
00:18:23.519 --> 00:18:29.759
End Days, a serialized dark comedy released in two thousand

182
00:18:29.839 --> 00:18:37.200
and three. Okay, so it wasn't called a podcast back

183
00:18:37.240 --> 00:18:45.400
then though, because that term wasn't around. Apparently. In two

184
00:18:45.480 --> 00:18:51.039
thousand and six, UK comedian Ricky Jervais his podcast became

185
00:18:51.079 --> 00:18:54.839
the most downloaded podcast in the world, earning a Guinness

186
00:18:54.880 --> 00:19:05.240
World Record. I remember that he was on I Forget

187
00:19:05.279 --> 00:19:17.359
the what was the name of that. I wonder if

188
00:19:17.359 --> 00:19:27.920
I have it online, if I look at the statistics sources, No,

189
00:19:28.160 --> 00:19:32.200
I am on there, but illumine. I'm sure he's on luminosity.

190
00:19:32.920 --> 00:19:41.119
Let me check luminosity. L U m I an osity,

191
00:19:45.480 --> 00:20:06.119
rickyga face, I wonder, how are you doing? Okay, you

192
00:20:06.279 --> 00:20:13.960
said nope, but it's not giving me human right, Okay,

193
00:20:14.039 --> 00:20:23.599
so luminosity, Ricky Gervaise, it's coming up with Humanity has

194
00:20:23.720 --> 00:20:26.480
not given me that. I'm pretty sure it's on luminosity.

195
00:20:27.480 --> 00:20:30.039
I might be completely wrong, though, in fact, I think

196
00:20:30.079 --> 00:20:37.680
I possibly am. Maybe he was on a podcast. Anyway,

197
00:20:38.079 --> 00:20:45.400
The problem I had back in the day was not

198
00:20:45.440 --> 00:20:53.559
climbing trees, but it was well, it was easier back

199
00:20:53.599 --> 00:20:57.440
then because I wasn't doing so many recordings, but once

200
00:20:57.480 --> 00:21:04.759
I started doing longer stuff and more often, a lot

201
00:21:04.799 --> 00:21:10.200
of the podcast hosts would not cover it. You know,

202
00:21:10.279 --> 00:21:15.559
they'd be limited by their bandwidth, limited by their space,

203
00:21:15.759 --> 00:21:20.880
their memory or whatever of holding onto stuff missus before

204
00:21:21.200 --> 00:21:26.359
iclouds were around as well, so it was or cloud

205
00:21:26.839 --> 00:21:31.599
computing rather so it was. Yeah, there was a lot

206
00:21:31.599 --> 00:21:36.240
of limitations, which is why I started off just having

207
00:21:36.279 --> 00:21:40.960
it on my website to start with. Then when I

208
00:21:41.079 --> 00:21:43.640
this is like the beginning of two thousand and six,

209
00:21:44.279 --> 00:21:46.519
and then when I found a podcast, I was able

210
00:21:46.559 --> 00:21:50.640
to a podcast host called free podcast host. I do

211
00:21:50.720 --> 00:22:04.119
believe free podcast host, Free podcast host. Let's see if

212
00:22:04.160 --> 00:22:14.480
I've remembered it right. No, it's not coming up free podcast.

213
00:22:16.599 --> 00:22:19.240
I wonder if I put an image, maybe it comes

214
00:22:19.319 --> 00:22:26.000
up free podcast. Okay, So if I go back original

215
00:22:28.480 --> 00:22:47.079
original podcast hosts two thousand and six, let's have a look.

216
00:22:47.880 --> 00:23:10.200
I wonder I can't hosting. Maybe I put hosting and

217
00:23:10.279 --> 00:23:12.680
I don't need to put a UK door. I guesse, okay,

218
00:23:14.680 --> 00:23:24.759
podcasts the two. It's weird is I've noticed this a

219
00:23:24.799 --> 00:23:29.480
little bit more recently. It might be due to AI

220
00:23:29.960 --> 00:23:35.599
or I don't know, And in some ways I'm not complaining,

221
00:23:36.000 --> 00:23:41.240
but some of the old stuff doesn't seem to be

222
00:23:41.319 --> 00:23:45.720
on the internet anymore. I remember there was a time

223
00:23:45.799 --> 00:23:50.759
when i'd put something looking for now and get a

224
00:23:50.759 --> 00:23:54.920
post from like fifteen years ago, or a page from

225
00:23:54.960 --> 00:23:58.960
fifteen years ago, or a website that wasn't even around anymore.

226
00:24:01.039 --> 00:24:08.319
But now it seems to be, which is kind of

227
00:24:08.319 --> 00:24:10.759
what it should be doing. I guess, is keeping it

228
00:24:10.839 --> 00:24:23.519
more up to date. But you know, I just ah,

229
00:24:24.119 --> 00:24:27.400
I know the podcast I'm looking for doesn't exist anymore,

230
00:24:27.720 --> 00:24:32.839
but it definitely did, but I can't remember it was

231
00:24:34.599 --> 00:24:43.839
free podcast, free podcast? Was it just free podcast dot com?

232
00:24:43.839 --> 00:24:58.160
Maybe free podcast dot com where it's not there anymore. Yeah,

233
00:24:58.319 --> 00:25:00.240
it's definitely not I know it's not there anymore, but

234
00:25:00.279 --> 00:25:05.000
it's not even I thought they'd be mentioned, you know,

235
00:25:05.200 --> 00:25:07.119
someone would be like that or what do you remember?

236
00:25:07.960 --> 00:25:11.279
Do you remember the free podcast host called free podcast?

237
00:25:12.720 --> 00:25:17.200
Remember that? Like yeah, but no, no one seems to

238
00:25:17.200 --> 00:25:21.920
be talking about it. Maybe there's a reason for that

239
00:25:23.799 --> 00:25:32.000
free podcast. Nope, that's Spreaker three podcast. I'll tell you what.

240
00:25:32.119 --> 00:25:36.640
This touch screen is playing up. All I'm trying to

241
00:25:36.680 --> 00:25:38.319
do is just move it up and down. It's like

242
00:25:38.400 --> 00:25:43.319
every time I touch an image, it's clicking on it. Well,

243
00:25:43.319 --> 00:25:49.039
it's clicking. It is opening it up free podcast podcast.

244
00:25:54.359 --> 00:25:57.880
Oh well it's gone. I mean, I know it's gone.

245
00:25:57.960 --> 00:26:03.319
Hasn't been around. I had and I've talked about this before,

246
00:26:03.400 --> 00:26:09.920
but it's going really well on there because I basically

247
00:26:12.279 --> 00:26:16.279
I had that or was it two thousand and seven,

248
00:26:17.240 --> 00:26:20.039
I don't know, because I was on my Space, my audios,

249
00:26:20.039 --> 00:26:24.839
on my videos and then I found a poop bag

250
00:26:24.880 --> 00:26:28.559
in my pocket. Ah, I have to check that in

251
00:26:28.599 --> 00:26:34.079
the pin want to go out. Oh dear, I wonder

252
00:26:34.079 --> 00:26:40.039
what they're smalls. I thought, it's just me. I used to.

253
00:26:41.599 --> 00:26:45.720
I started using the podcast free podcast host or free

254
00:26:46.279 --> 00:26:54.880
podcast hosting, and it was really good, really really good,

255
00:26:54.960 --> 00:26:59.119
and it was the main one out of you know,

256
00:26:59.839 --> 00:27:02.400
it was just the main podcast I think in the

257
00:27:02.440 --> 00:27:07.079
world at the time because it was free, so most

258
00:27:07.119 --> 00:27:11.160
people guess we're using it. So there's that degree of

259
00:27:11.279 --> 00:27:16.759
kind of migrating from my space to free podcast host

260
00:27:18.519 --> 00:27:23.279
because before that, I didn't even know what the word

261
00:27:23.319 --> 00:27:27.200
podcast meant. I'd never don't think I'd even I might

262
00:27:27.279 --> 00:27:31.160
have heard the phrase, but didn't know what it was

263
00:27:31.920 --> 00:27:36.960
because I didn't class what I was doing this podcast anyway.

264
00:27:37.720 --> 00:27:41.680
They I've always, I mean, I still feel the same. Really,

265
00:27:42.359 --> 00:27:46.720
every recording that I do is a standalone piece of art.

266
00:27:50.440 --> 00:27:52.720
I may be the only one that actually believes that,

267
00:27:53.319 --> 00:28:00.720
which is fair enough. Two thousand and seven, there were

268
00:28:00.759 --> 00:28:09.079
over one hundred and fifteen thousand English language podcasts available online.

269
00:28:09.359 --> 00:28:15.960
Now it's not that many. I mean, you wouldn't want

270
00:28:16.680 --> 00:28:19.640
one hundred and fifteen thousand if it was one hundred

271
00:28:19.680 --> 00:28:22.640
and fifteen thousand chickens. You wouldn't want them in your bathroom,

272
00:28:22.920 --> 00:28:26.000
you know. So it's a lot of chickens. But as

273
00:28:26.000 --> 00:28:32.039
far as podcasts go, in the world, English language podcasts,

274
00:28:32.079 --> 00:28:34.440
so there's a lot of quite a few English language

275
00:28:34.440 --> 00:28:41.240
speaking countries that could be making podcasts. So one hundred

276
00:28:41.240 --> 00:28:53.119
and fifteen thousand isn't a huge amount. I would say,

277
00:28:54.400 --> 00:28:56.480
I don't know. I might be wrong. Maybe it is,

278
00:28:56.720 --> 00:28:59.599
but I was one of them. That's definitely one of

279
00:28:59.599 --> 00:29:02.200
those people, one of the I was one of the

280
00:29:02.240 --> 00:29:08.559
first out of one hundred and fifteen thousand. There was

281
00:29:08.599 --> 00:29:12.559
a bb show called In Our Time and it was

282
00:29:12.799 --> 00:29:17.799
the BBC's first program made available as a podcast in

283
00:29:17.920 --> 00:29:24.480
two thousand and four. Well look at this. The People's

284
00:29:24.559 --> 00:29:28.079
Choice Podcast Awards were established in two thousand and five

285
00:29:28.160 --> 00:29:32.599
to recognize excellence in podcasting. I've never been invited to that.

286
00:29:36.359 --> 00:29:41.200
Where's my props? Where's my Where's my props? It's like

287
00:29:41.240 --> 00:29:46.799
I don't exist. It's it's a grazy popularity and growth.

288
00:29:47.200 --> 00:29:50.559
As a twenty twenty four there are over three million

289
00:29:50.599 --> 00:30:03.640
podcasts and nearly two hundred million episodes available. It's quite weird.

290
00:30:03.680 --> 00:30:07.319
Isn't it, Because you think I've got I'm probably about

291
00:30:07.359 --> 00:30:10.400
ten percent of those episodes of mine. I've done so

292
00:30:10.519 --> 00:30:21.400
many two hundred million episodes, so three million podcasts. It'd

293
00:30:21.400 --> 00:30:28.559
be uh. I wish there was some kind of real life,

294
00:30:29.440 --> 00:30:37.119
that kind of thing where you could just see. I'd

295
00:30:37.200 --> 00:30:39.960
like to see kind of what numbers the really popular

296
00:30:40.000 --> 00:30:45.160
podcasters get. They just there are some websites you can

297
00:30:45.240 --> 00:30:49.440
sign up for, and it costs money to get access

298
00:30:49.519 --> 00:30:54.240
to certain stats. But I don't know how I don't

299
00:30:54.279 --> 00:31:01.480
know how accurate they are. Sixty percent of people listen

300
00:31:01.519 --> 00:31:06.000
to podcasts at least once a month, So this is

301
00:31:06.319 --> 00:31:12.359
now in twoenty twenty five. Back in two thousand and seven,

302
00:31:12.400 --> 00:31:17.359
when I was on podcast three, podcasts, Post dot com

303
00:31:17.440 --> 00:31:24.039
or whatever it was called. I I remember at the

304
00:31:24.079 --> 00:31:28.720
beginning of two thousand and eight, I was showing off,

305
00:31:28.720 --> 00:31:33.559
but I was showing my classmates at college the stats.

306
00:31:33.720 --> 00:31:38.559
And I'd had over one hundred thousand downloads of my

307
00:31:38.680 --> 00:31:43.480
podcasts in the time that I had that podcast, so

308
00:31:43.920 --> 00:31:46.079
I don't know how long I'd had it for, but

309
00:31:46.359 --> 00:31:49.599
I reached one hundred over one hundred thousand, and I

310
00:31:49.680 --> 00:31:58.359
was super super impressed, super happy, super everything Superman. I

311
00:31:58.480 --> 00:32:03.119
was very did anyone these Superman and Lewis were Lewis

312
00:32:04.599 --> 00:32:10.240
on TV? I watched the last, very last episode the

313
00:32:10.279 --> 00:32:16.920
other day and I was kind of surprised. I mean,

314
00:32:16.960 --> 00:32:21.400
they had action scenes and stuff, but they it was

315
00:32:21.440 --> 00:32:25.640
a slow burner. When it was action, the action was good,

316
00:32:27.079 --> 00:32:29.640
but a lot of it wasn't action. A lot of

317
00:32:29.640 --> 00:32:36.039
it was just chatting. And it's a little bit The

318
00:32:36.079 --> 00:32:39.039
Walking Dead turned into a bit like that. You know,

319
00:32:39.200 --> 00:32:45.119
the action scenes were brilliant in The Walking Dead, but

320
00:32:45.240 --> 00:32:50.559
the longer it went on, like the later seasons, the

321
00:32:50.680 --> 00:32:53.720
less action scenes they were. And the action scenes were

322
00:32:53.759 --> 00:32:58.240
still really good, but not a shock him. I guess

323
00:32:58.279 --> 00:33:03.319
because having watched for thirty five years, you know, you

324
00:33:03.400 --> 00:33:08.920
kind of get used to what's about to emerge, but

325
00:33:11.960 --> 00:33:16.160
you know it's it's you don't think when it first started.

326
00:33:16.319 --> 00:33:27.680
It was a little bit like the Dynamite in Lost.

327
00:33:27.839 --> 00:33:30.279
I'm not going to spoil them saying, you know, as

328
00:33:30.279 --> 00:33:34.079
far as surprise goes, that's something that you just don't expect,

329
00:33:35.640 --> 00:33:41.039
like just you're just not ready. It's just just it's like, wow, Okay,

330
00:33:41.480 --> 00:33:48.160
didn't see that coming here? Did he? And I mean

331
00:33:48.200 --> 00:33:50.119
I don't I don't want to spoil Lost even though

332
00:33:50.160 --> 00:33:55.119
it's twenty years old. But is it twenty years old?

333
00:33:55.200 --> 00:34:06.279
When did Lost finish? Lost was aired from September twenty second,

334
00:34:06.400 --> 00:34:10.639
two thousand and four to May twenty third, two thy

335
00:34:10.920 --> 00:34:18.880
ten made Okay, so it's fifteen years since it's been offair.

336
00:34:19.480 --> 00:34:23.000
But you know what, there's certain TV shows that I

337
00:34:23.079 --> 00:34:26.920
would i'd like to watch that I've seen a few

338
00:34:26.960 --> 00:34:33.079
episodes some you know, when the whole box set was available,

339
00:34:33.079 --> 00:34:37.079
but I didn't kind of pursue it somewhere. I've seen

340
00:34:37.119 --> 00:34:43.199
a few episodes, well maybe a whole season, like twenty four.

341
00:34:43.320 --> 00:34:47.679
I watched the first full season, but I didn't kind

342
00:34:47.679 --> 00:34:49.280
of get into any of the others. I didn't watch

343
00:34:49.320 --> 00:34:53.639
the rest of it. But at the time, I think

344
00:34:53.679 --> 00:34:57.880
it was still running. And that's the thing. If there's

345
00:34:57.880 --> 00:35:02.519
a show that's still running, kind of like to wait

346
00:35:02.599 --> 00:35:04.920
until it's all complete and then watch it from start

347
00:35:04.920 --> 00:35:13.719
to finish. And there's a few shows if I put

348
00:35:13.760 --> 00:35:24.719
in like the best best TV shows, best bingeable, if

349
00:35:24.719 --> 00:35:35.960
I put bingeable, because hmmm, so if I put I'm

350
00:35:35.960 --> 00:35:38.960
gonna go to rotten tomatoes here, I'll tell you which

351
00:35:38.960 --> 00:35:49.320
ones I agree with So the best haunting this is

352
00:35:49.400 --> 00:35:58.320
number twenty five. This, No, I don't think they're really

353
00:35:58.320 --> 00:36:02.599
aiming at me. They've missed out a lot of Maybe

354
00:36:02.639 --> 00:36:10.480
I just perhaps bingeble was I suppose bingeball could mean

355
00:36:10.840 --> 00:36:15.639
something that you can get through quite quickly, you know.

356
00:36:17.400 --> 00:36:20.559
I don't know. I'm not sure. But according to this,

357
00:36:21.639 --> 00:36:26.480
the Haunting of Hill House was number twenty five. The

358
00:36:26.519 --> 00:36:30.000
Great British break Off twenty four. That's not really my thing.

359
00:36:30.719 --> 00:36:35.000
The West World. I watched the first season of that.

360
00:36:35.079 --> 00:36:38.679
I did like it, but I didn't watch anymore. I

361
00:36:38.719 --> 00:36:43.559
remember the very original one with your Brnner. Orange is

362
00:36:43.559 --> 00:36:47.039
a New Black. I used to watch that. I watched

363
00:36:47.039 --> 00:36:49.920
a few seasons of that and then I stopped. I

364
00:36:50.000 --> 00:36:55.039
used to get those on from Blockbusters, Lucifer. I've seen

365
00:36:55.119 --> 00:37:01.599
quite a few of those ones, Seinfeld, So I've seen

366
00:37:01.639 --> 00:37:11.039
quite a few of those. Is Julia Louise Dreyfus? Is

367
00:37:11.079 --> 00:37:21.679
she related to the Jaws Man? Anyone? She related to

368
00:37:22.159 --> 00:37:32.639
the what's his name? Richard? Is it Richard Dreyfus? M

369
00:37:41.760 --> 00:37:44.639
I'm gonna have a look because she might be whyn't she?

370
00:37:45.800 --> 00:37:49.000
There are some famous actors that are related to other

371
00:37:49.079 --> 00:37:54.480
famous actors that have kind of but I don't know,

372
00:37:54.679 --> 00:38:01.519
just basically are not necessarily known. They've not maybe not

373
00:38:01.639 --> 00:38:08.440
made their way because of that regard Gerard Louise Dreyfuss.

374
00:38:09.480 --> 00:38:12.159
So no, maybe she might be related, but she's not

375
00:38:12.320 --> 00:38:26.280
his daughter relatives. No, Oh, well, near mind, So I

376
00:38:26.320 --> 00:38:33.920
go back Community. I liked Community, I really did. It

377
00:38:34.039 --> 00:38:40.000
was it was just funny, and especially seeing Chevy Chase

378
00:38:41.599 --> 00:38:45.480
is so grumpy in that, and I think he left

379
00:38:45.559 --> 00:38:47.119
the show and got kicked out at the show and

380
00:38:47.119 --> 00:38:51.360
then maybe he went back. I don't know, but he

381
00:38:51.519 --> 00:38:55.360
was for me, he was the best part of the show. Yeh.

382
00:38:56.519 --> 00:39:00.119
Buffy the Vampire Slayer, I kind don't want to watch

383
00:39:00.159 --> 00:39:02.599
that again because I've seen it. I watched it when

384
00:39:02.599 --> 00:39:08.639
I was on First time Round. And yeah, I also

385
00:39:08.760 --> 00:39:14.320
watched Angel. I really liked Angel. It was in some

386
00:39:14.360 --> 00:39:17.280
ways I preferred Angel because it was more grown up.

387
00:39:17.320 --> 00:39:21.639
It was a bit more I don't know, because that

388
00:39:21.719 --> 00:39:25.400
was during the two thousands, wasn't it Angel? Or late

389
00:39:25.480 --> 00:39:34.000
nineties two thousands? Yeah, yeah, because Buffy the Vampire Slay

390
00:39:34.000 --> 00:39:38.119
I was in the nineties, wasn't it. And so I

391
00:39:38.199 --> 00:39:41.280
used to watch Angel that used to be on a

392
00:39:41.280 --> 00:39:43.280
bit later at night. It was a bit more adult

393
00:39:43.280 --> 00:39:50.840
and I liked it. And Sherlock. I've seen all those,

394
00:39:50.880 --> 00:39:52.760
so I don't need to watch that again. That was

395
00:39:52.840 --> 00:39:58.199
really good. I like that mind Hunter. I've never seen it.

396
00:40:02.400 --> 00:40:06.480
Perhaps I need to look up that one up mind Hunter, Fleabag,

397
00:40:06.519 --> 00:40:16.599
I've seen that. If you haven't seen Fleabag, then I

398
00:40:16.679 --> 00:40:22.800
recommend it. It's funny, it's different. It's very different from

399
00:40:22.960 --> 00:40:38.360
probably anything you'll see. You know. Marvel's Daredevil. Uh, Marvel's Daredevil,

400
00:40:40.039 --> 00:40:43.559
the first in a planned series of shows detail in

401
00:40:43.599 --> 00:40:50.440
the Marvel universe. Daredevil, What did it say? The first

402
00:40:50.480 --> 00:40:56.719
in a planned series of shows? I mean, what on

403
00:40:56.760 --> 00:40:58.840
earth has it done there? It's just kick me out?

404
00:40:59.639 --> 00:41:05.199
Don't kick me out? Why would you do that to me? Wow?

405
00:41:09.519 --> 00:41:15.079
I thought the list would be a bit more, I

406
00:41:15.079 --> 00:41:20.679
don't know, based on things like bad men, bad men,

407
00:41:20.880 --> 00:41:30.079
bad men, and Badminton bad men, things like that. You're

408
00:41:30.519 --> 00:41:40.119
the Marvels Missus masl the Marvelous Missus Mabel, not the Marvels,

409
00:41:40.119 --> 00:41:44.159
the Marvelous Missus Mabel. I watched a couple of those

410
00:41:44.199 --> 00:41:49.639
episodes Black Mirror. It's a strange, strange show that is

411
00:41:50.360 --> 00:41:54.400
friends I've seen Friends, so I don't really I don't

412
00:41:54.440 --> 00:41:56.239
want to watch it again, but I watched it, you know,

413
00:41:56.239 --> 00:41:59.800
when it was on first time. I liked it and

414
00:42:00.280 --> 00:42:06.960
the Boys really good show. If you like superheroes, and

415
00:42:07.000 --> 00:42:11.800
if you've never heard of The Boys and you like

416
00:42:12.000 --> 00:42:20.760
adult stuff, then check that out. It's on Amazon and

417
00:42:20.880 --> 00:42:30.800
it is four. It's really really it is that you're

418
00:42:30.800 --> 00:42:34.000
going to see things you've possibly never seen before in

419
00:42:34.039 --> 00:42:39.280
a TV show. But it's very good. I liked it,

420
00:42:39.320 --> 00:42:42.159
and it's all because it's about these superheroes, but they're

421
00:42:42.159 --> 00:42:48.199
not really particularly good, some of them. I've been watching

422
00:42:48.199 --> 00:42:52.440
it for a few years now and it's have a

423
00:42:52.519 --> 00:42:56.079
look at the I don't know when the next season

424
00:42:56.239 --> 00:43:03.239
is out, if there is another season coming out, when

425
00:43:03.280 --> 00:43:07.800
did it start. Also, they did a gen V which

426
00:43:08.000 --> 00:43:10.599
was like a shoot off from that that was also

427
00:43:10.679 --> 00:43:13.039
really good, but they never did more than one season.

428
00:43:14.599 --> 00:43:18.280
I don't in a way. So let's say a look.

429
00:43:19.440 --> 00:43:22.119
I'm going to click on season see what comes up?

430
00:43:23.400 --> 00:43:31.880
Season one, Season four, twenty twenty four, So yeah, I'm

431
00:43:31.880 --> 00:43:37.880
waiting for the season. Yeah. Maybe the first season was

432
00:43:37.920 --> 00:43:43.519
twenty nineteen, Season two twenty twenty, then the next one

433
00:43:43.639 --> 00:43:47.760
was twenty twenty two, then the next one was twenty

434
00:43:47.800 --> 00:43:54.199
twenty four. I mean the season twenty was probably made

435
00:43:54.199 --> 00:43:59.719
in twenty nineteen, and then twenty twenty probably had to

436
00:43:59.719 --> 00:44:07.880
take year out. Can't do so much, Yeah, but I

437
00:44:08.159 --> 00:44:13.519
like it. It's really weird because Anthony's star is in it.

438
00:44:14.119 --> 00:44:15.840
And I was watching. I was looking at and thinking,

439
00:44:16.199 --> 00:44:20.280
you look familiarly are And I couldn't figure it out,

440
00:44:21.000 --> 00:44:29.639
couldn't could not figuring it out at all. And I

441
00:44:29.719 --> 00:44:31.880
was looking what did he do? And he was in

442
00:44:31.960 --> 00:44:37.519
a TV show? If I can find it, where is

443
00:44:37.559 --> 00:44:43.239
it Banshee? If you've never seen Banshie, it's a really

444
00:44:43.280 --> 00:44:46.920
good show. It's good, and he's in that. But he

445
00:44:47.039 --> 00:44:50.960
plays such a different character. And for one, he's not

446
00:44:51.039 --> 00:44:55.599
wearing a super costume superhero costume, so I guess that

447
00:44:55.639 --> 00:44:59.119
would that just shows you, you know, people going about

448
00:44:59.280 --> 00:45:03.800
Superman or he does his take his glasses off and

449
00:45:03.880 --> 00:45:06.480
he's Superman. No he doesn't. He puts on as he

450
00:45:06.519 --> 00:45:10.559
puts on a costume, doesn't he? And that costume does

451
00:45:10.639 --> 00:45:15.679
make someone look different. If I turned up in dressed

452
00:45:15.719 --> 00:45:22.079
as Superman, for example, and a big cape and boots

453
00:45:22.440 --> 00:45:27.119
and a thongb I'm going to look different, and if

454
00:45:27.159 --> 00:45:29.440
I take my glasses off, I'm going to look different.

455
00:45:32.199 --> 00:45:34.679
You know, it's I'm not going to do it to

456
00:45:34.719 --> 00:45:39.360
test the theory, but the fact is it's not just

457
00:45:39.679 --> 00:45:41.679
or he just takes the glasses off. Why don't you

458
00:45:41.920 --> 00:45:45.519
recognize him? No, he has a different hairstyle, doesn't he

459
00:45:45.559 --> 00:45:49.280
when he's Superman, especially the New Superman? Because the New

460
00:45:49.280 --> 00:45:53.400
Superman's got really curly hair when he's Clark Kent. And

461
00:45:53.440 --> 00:45:56.840
they're not released it yet, but it's coming soon. I'm

462
00:45:56.840 --> 00:45:59.880
looking forward to that. Because I love superhero movies, love

463
00:46:00.159 --> 00:46:03.519
love them, love them. I watch every single one that

464
00:46:03.599 --> 00:46:08.840
there ever will be. I'm serious, any any superhero movie.

465
00:46:09.239 --> 00:46:12.840
I don't listen to the critics. I watched the movie

466
00:46:13.679 --> 00:46:17.960
and I will continue to do that forever because I

467
00:46:18.000 --> 00:46:23.159
love superhero movies. There's no such thing as a bad one.

468
00:46:23.519 --> 00:46:29.320
For me. There's you know, there's better ones and ones

469
00:46:29.360 --> 00:46:32.719
that aren't as good as others, but they all stand alone.

470
00:46:32.760 --> 00:46:38.559
They're all you know, even the nineteen seventy eight or

471
00:46:38.679 --> 00:46:43.679
seventy seven Spider Man, you know, it'd be silly to

472
00:46:43.719 --> 00:46:47.320
compare that with the Spider Man of twoenty twenty two.

473
00:46:50.360 --> 00:46:58.840
But you know, it's still it was still great. I

474
00:46:58.880 --> 00:47:02.480
don't really want to watch it, not now, and I

475
00:47:02.519 --> 00:47:05.639
think I'd struggled to watch it about laughing. But it's

476
00:47:05.760 --> 00:47:09.880
just because you know, the walking up the wall was

477
00:47:09.880 --> 00:47:14.039
basically just crawling along the floor and they had a camera.

478
00:47:14.199 --> 00:47:18.280
So okay, if you haven't seen Spider Man from nineteen

479
00:47:18.320 --> 00:47:21.559
seventy eight, I don't want to ruin it for you,

480
00:47:23.599 --> 00:47:28.880
but it's almost like you can see that he's just

481
00:47:28.960 --> 00:47:36.239
crawling along the floor. But at the same time it's brilliant.

482
00:47:36.800 --> 00:47:40.360
It's no different really from Batman. You know, Batman climbing

483
00:47:40.400 --> 00:47:48.559
up a wall and MC clearly on the floor, but

484
00:47:48.679 --> 00:47:51.480
that the bat meant the back, not the movies. I

485
00:47:51.519 --> 00:47:56.960
don't mean. The TV show though, is still one of

486
00:47:56.960 --> 00:48:01.360
the best TV shows I think ever a man TV shows.

487
00:48:01.480 --> 00:48:10.679
It's just funny, so great, so colorful, so just it's

488
00:48:10.719 --> 00:48:14.480
a little bit like The Star Trek. It's almost perfect

489
00:48:15.679 --> 00:48:22.119
in a weird way. Now, there was a time I

490
00:48:22.159 --> 00:48:26.119
used to like, think, oh, the original Star Trek, especially

491
00:48:26.760 --> 00:48:29.480
when you original Okay, I used to watch the original

492
00:48:29.480 --> 00:48:33.280
Star Trek. It was repeats because I wasn't alive when

493
00:48:33.320 --> 00:48:36.199
the original one came out, but I used to watch it,

494
00:48:36.280 --> 00:48:39.440
probably late seventies, early eighties. It used to be on

495
00:48:39.719 --> 00:48:46.079
BBC two, about six o'clock, half five, six, half six,

496
00:48:46.159 --> 00:48:49.360
something like that, and I'd watch it and they just

497
00:48:49.480 --> 00:48:52.599
completely they'd repeat and then keep showing episodes over and

498
00:48:52.639 --> 00:48:59.880
over again, and I loved it. And then in about

499
00:49:00.280 --> 00:49:07.239
nineteen ninety was it ninety four? Was it ninety five?

500
00:49:07.440 --> 00:49:11.800
Was it in ninety two? When did when did Star

501
00:49:11.840 --> 00:49:22.280
Trek Star Trek Next Generation? Next Generation? When did that start?

502
00:49:23.159 --> 00:49:25.840
I'm sure it was like late nineties, but it was

503
00:49:25.840 --> 00:49:29.280
definitely No, it was definitely around in ninety four because

504
00:49:29.280 --> 00:49:33.559
I was in Ireland watching it nineteen eighty seven, so

505
00:49:33.679 --> 00:49:38.400
when that came out, I refused to watch it. I

506
00:49:38.480 --> 00:49:42.199
was very, very very angry. I'm not watching that. How

507
00:49:42.239 --> 00:49:45.880
can that compete with the original Star Trek? And back

508
00:49:45.920 --> 00:49:49.960
then I was a bit I'd like to say it

509
00:49:50.000 --> 00:49:53.000
now considering what I look like, but how could you

510
00:49:53.079 --> 00:49:57.039
have a board man in the main cast. But now

511
00:49:57.039 --> 00:49:59.239
I'm also a baldy, I kind of think, well, yeah,

512
00:49:59.440 --> 00:50:02.320
that seemed to be the right thing. I think every

513
00:50:02.360 --> 00:50:07.000
single position of authority should have someone like me, a baldie.

514
00:50:08.800 --> 00:50:13.719
Don't don't if with the Baldies, don't if with the Walls,

515
00:50:15.960 --> 00:50:24.000
that's The Wonderers. Sorry, you've the kid alone. I should

516
00:50:24.239 --> 00:50:27.480
leave you. Anyone remember The Wanderers. I don't want to

517
00:50:27.480 --> 00:50:34.880
spoil the movie and it was the early eighties. Since

518
00:50:35.000 --> 00:50:37.320
I have answered this question a few times what's your

519
00:50:37.320 --> 00:50:39.199
favorite movie and stuff? And I always say, it's a

520
00:50:39.199 --> 00:50:41.639
Wonderful Life. It's a wonderful Life. It's one of my

521
00:50:41.719 --> 00:50:50.840
favorite movie and it is. However, I do have other

522
00:50:51.079 --> 00:50:58.760
movies that I adore, like Adoor really just like I

523
00:50:58.840 --> 00:51:05.280
want to cuddle, have this something I could watch. There's

524
00:51:05.280 --> 00:51:08.119
not many movies I could just watch any time and

525
00:51:08.360 --> 00:51:16.000
just be happy watching it. It's a Wonderful Life as

526
00:51:16.000 --> 00:51:19.360
one of those. Although I don't watch it all the time.

527
00:51:19.480 --> 00:51:22.880
I mean, it'd lose its charm, but i'd probably watch

528
00:51:22.960 --> 00:51:28.679
it maybe once or twice a year. Another one would

529
00:51:28.760 --> 00:51:34.880
be The Wanderers. I did like The Warriors, but that

530
00:51:35.039 --> 00:51:38.440
was a bit gritty. I didn't mind it being gritty,

531
00:51:38.480 --> 00:51:40.960
but at the time. The thing I liked about The

532
00:51:41.000 --> 00:51:44.119
Wanderers is the music. The sixties music or was it

533
00:51:44.199 --> 00:51:47.719
fifties music, wasn't it. I'm the guy who would never

534
00:51:47.760 --> 00:51:50.840
sailed down. I'm never in one place. I go walk

535
00:51:50.880 --> 00:51:56.559
them down down and they're all so cool and all

536
00:51:56.599 --> 00:52:02.039
the different gangs. And it's weird because I watched it recently,

537
00:52:02.199 --> 00:52:06.519
well a few months ago, and it's way grittier than

538
00:52:06.559 --> 00:52:11.559
I remember. It's there's parts of it that actually really horrible.

539
00:52:12.119 --> 00:52:15.599
I was like, wow, But I just remember the funny

540
00:52:15.639 --> 00:52:22.159
bits like big Girls, dorn cry, big Girls everything like

541
00:52:22.239 --> 00:52:24.679
elbow tit and things that silly things that they were

542
00:52:24.719 --> 00:52:29.920
doing in a movie. And I forgot that. There was

543
00:52:30.000 --> 00:52:35.559
like some pretty not so wonderful bits, but I still

544
00:52:35.559 --> 00:52:41.360
got a fondness for it. And there's something about, you know,

545
00:52:41.599 --> 00:52:47.960
leave the cube alone, and he was he was protecting people.

546
00:52:48.159 --> 00:52:54.760
I like that. That just felt nice. What's the other

547
00:52:54.760 --> 00:53:02.400
on groundhog Day? Love groundhog Day? It's just it's another

548
00:53:02.559 --> 00:53:08.480
perfect movie. It just is. I can't I don't know why.

549
00:53:08.639 --> 00:53:12.159
To me, I mean, I don't know why it's so perfect,

550
00:53:14.199 --> 00:53:19.519
but it ticks all the boxes that I look for

551
00:53:19.760 --> 00:53:22.559
that I would. You know, it's feel good, it's funny,

552
00:53:23.280 --> 00:53:29.719
it's it's emotional. I guess it's romantic. I guess, yeah,

553
00:53:29.760 --> 00:53:33.000
it's romantic, isn't it? But it's you know, I don't

554
00:53:33.039 --> 00:53:38.519
really have I don't go for romantic movies. I've watched

555
00:53:38.559 --> 00:53:44.960
a lot. You know, Sleepless in Seattle and You've Got Mail.

556
00:53:45.920 --> 00:53:48.719
It's the same people, wasn't it. Was it the same

557
00:53:48.800 --> 00:53:56.039
two people in both of those movies? Sleepless in Seattle?

558
00:53:57.320 --> 00:54:02.920
Was it the same to people? Meg Ryan, Meg Ryan,

559
00:54:04.480 --> 00:54:09.559
Meg Ryan, Sleepless in Seattle, Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan,

560
00:54:11.679 --> 00:54:16.360
So You've Got Mail? Was Meg Ryan in that one

561
00:54:16.360 --> 00:54:23.039
as well? Or is that someone else You've Got Mail? Oh?

562
00:54:23.519 --> 00:54:27.320
The problem is with people like Tom Hanks is it's

563
00:54:27.320 --> 00:54:30.159
hard to find their filmography because they've got so many.

564
00:54:30.679 --> 00:54:36.320
It's been going since nineteen eighty. That's that's over fifteen years.

565
00:54:38.079 --> 00:54:44.119
The BBDBD The Burbs. I liked The Urbs. Actually that

566
00:54:44.199 --> 00:54:50.559
was a good movie. It's funny. Sleepless in Seattle, You've

567
00:54:50.599 --> 00:54:55.000
Got Mail. So Sleepless in Seattle was nineteen ninety three,

568
00:54:55.800 --> 00:55:02.679
You've Got Mail was nineteen ninety eight. It's Meg Ryan again.

569
00:55:05.320 --> 00:55:09.320
So what is that about? How can you have two

570
00:55:11.480 --> 00:55:17.960
two movies and they were both big movies, Okay a

571
00:55:17.960 --> 00:55:22.599
few years apart, but how can you have both big hits?

572
00:55:22.960 --> 00:55:30.159
How can you have two movies both based on like

573
00:55:30.239 --> 00:55:39.079
a Love Affair, and it's got the same two characters.

574
00:55:41.639 --> 00:55:43.360
I don't know why it took so long to finish

575
00:55:43.400 --> 00:55:45.519
that sentence, because we all knew what the sentence was

576
00:55:45.559 --> 00:55:47.159
going to be, didn't we We all knew what I

577
00:55:47.199 --> 00:55:50.519
was going to say. I didn't really need to say it.

578
00:55:55.119 --> 00:55:58.960
They also appeared to on One Screw. They also appeared

579
00:55:59.000 --> 00:56:08.119
in Joe Verse Is a Volcano, another romantic comedy. Why

580
00:56:10.320 --> 00:56:13.159
were they Were they kind of together or something? Were

581
00:56:13.159 --> 00:56:16.280
they in a relationship? Was that why they did so

582
00:56:16.360 --> 00:56:23.320
many movies together? Or perhaps they were just really really

583
00:56:23.360 --> 00:56:33.159
really really good friends. Apparently it's a cult movie. I

584
00:56:33.320 --> 00:56:36.400
don't really know what it is about.

585
00:56:45.440 --> 00:56:45.599
It.

586
00:56:46.320 --> 00:56:48.800
It was a box office success in the sense of

587
00:56:49.599 --> 00:56:53.840
it made more. It cost twenty five million budget and

588
00:56:53.960 --> 00:56:56.480
thirty nine point four million it made at the box office,

589
00:56:56.960 --> 00:57:02.519
so it wasn't the normal Tom Hanger huge success. But

590
00:57:05.679 --> 00:57:16.159
I don't know. I've it just confuses me. Three movies.

591
00:57:17.480 --> 00:57:21.800
Were they married? Did Tom are they still married? Did

592
00:57:21.840 --> 00:57:30.000
Tom Hanks marry Mick Ryan? According to this, No, she's

593
00:57:30.079 --> 00:57:34.679
married to Dennis Quaid. What was married to Dennis Quaid?

594
00:57:37.280 --> 00:57:39.079
And this is another weird thing. You know, when you

595
00:57:39.159 --> 00:57:43.760
go looking through. I just remembered I'm supposed to be

596
00:57:43.800 --> 00:57:49.960
talking about podcasts. Who's do you know? I was sort

597
00:57:50.000 --> 00:57:53.159
of about kids of actors going on and doing her own thing,

598
00:57:53.199 --> 00:57:57.199
but without I'm not saying they didn't use their name.

599
00:57:57.360 --> 00:58:01.400
They didn't get a leg up because of who they

600
00:58:01.400 --> 00:58:05.679
were and being you know, related, all of the child

601
00:58:05.719 --> 00:58:08.960
of a famous actor. I'm not saying that wouldn't happen,

602
00:58:09.039 --> 00:58:14.400
because it's just I know, it all nepotism and whatever.

603
00:58:14.480 --> 00:58:18.199
But the fact is, you know, can you imagine if

604
00:58:20.360 --> 00:58:27.079
let's say I was, Yeah, if I was famous, so

605
00:58:27.159 --> 00:58:31.079
my dad was famous, right, Or let's say he was

606
00:58:31.079 --> 00:58:34.360
an electricians so let's say he's a he's famous for

607
00:58:34.400 --> 00:58:39.840
whatever he did, and I decided to do what he did.

608
00:58:40.360 --> 00:58:42.519
I want to do it because a lot of people

609
00:58:42.920 --> 00:58:44.960
want to do what their parents did, don't they like

610
00:58:45.000 --> 00:58:47.960
because they look up to their parents. I just had

611
00:58:48.000 --> 00:58:54.400
no I had no interest in electrician stuff, and I've

612
00:58:54.440 --> 00:58:58.519
never never really had any kind of skill with my

613
00:58:58.719 --> 00:59:02.559
hands like that kind of stuff. You know, it just

614
00:59:02.639 --> 00:59:06.559
wasn't for me. I'm more of a it's the same,

615
00:59:06.599 --> 00:59:08.400
more of a thinker. But I don't mean that in

616
00:59:08.440 --> 00:59:14.559
a negative way. Just I'm more of a I don't know,

617
00:59:15.039 --> 00:59:18.400
it's just yeah, it's just a talker. Probably more of

618
00:59:18.440 --> 00:59:22.679
a talker than a than a doer. I definitely prefer

619
00:59:22.760 --> 00:59:30.840
to talk than to do anyway, not all things, but anyway.

620
00:59:31.400 --> 00:59:34.320
So if he was famous at something and I wanted

621
00:59:34.519 --> 00:59:37.840
to follow him, let's say he what could he be

622
00:59:37.920 --> 00:59:43.239
famous as? He was famous at making holes in walls?

623
00:59:44.920 --> 00:59:51.559
And I don't know what Feeting's up to. He's been

624
00:59:51.639 --> 00:59:53.880
really naughty. He's in the back over there and he's

625
00:59:54.000 --> 00:59:58.880
like searching through some stuff. He doesn't know I'm talking

626
00:59:58.920 --> 01:00:03.639
about him, and sees his bum. He's trying to get

627
01:00:03.679 --> 01:00:10.480
something from behind the sofa. He's got no idea I'm

628
01:00:10.519 --> 01:00:15.440
talking about him. I'm just he does.

629
01:00:15.559 --> 01:00:15.760
Now.

630
01:00:15.880 --> 01:00:21.239
He's literally staring at me. Why are you staring at me? Oh?

631
01:00:21.280 --> 01:00:24.480
He's he's brought his food bowl over and just dropped

632
01:00:24.519 --> 01:00:27.199
it at the side. He never does that. He's pushed

633
01:00:27.199 --> 01:00:29.920
it towards me. He didn't pick it up, I anything,

634
01:00:30.000 --> 01:00:32.039
but he pushed it towards me, and he never does that.

635
01:00:32.519 --> 01:00:35.320
So I think he just clearly did, didn't he But

636
01:00:36.400 --> 01:00:40.239
I'm thinking maybe he wants some more food. You'll have

637
01:00:40.320 --> 01:00:43.559
to wait, I'm being very strict with him at the

638
01:00:43.599 --> 01:00:47.760
moment because he didn't eat his food for about two weeks.

639
01:00:48.559 --> 01:00:51.559
He just kept like leaving it. He did eat, but

640
01:00:51.599 --> 01:00:56.639
he just kept leaving it. And I got some food

641
01:00:56.679 --> 01:01:01.800
that he liked, and I decided I'm just going to

642
01:01:01.840 --> 01:01:03.480
get it for him and give it to him if

643
01:01:03.480 --> 01:01:06.480
you say, if he doesn't, I'll take it away. And

644
01:01:06.519 --> 01:01:10.000
now he's getting used to sort of not having to

645
01:01:10.039 --> 01:01:13.760
eat it. And I don't mean straight away. I mean

646
01:01:13.800 --> 01:01:15.480
if I leave it out and he hasn't eaten it

647
01:01:15.480 --> 01:01:19.519
within an hour, it goes away in the fridge. So

648
01:01:19.639 --> 01:01:23.880
now he's getting to realize that. I think he's going

649
01:01:24.440 --> 01:01:26.599
getting to the point where he's actually hungry for some

650
01:01:26.639 --> 01:01:33.760
food instead of me putting food out when he's not hungry.

651
01:01:34.480 --> 01:01:44.920
I think that made sense. So let's say my dad

652
01:01:44.960 --> 01:01:48.559
made holes in walls, and he was the best but

653
01:01:49.599 --> 01:01:56.519
making holes they were glorious and I'm not going to

654
01:01:56.599 --> 01:02:01.159
go but and I decided I wanted to make holes

655
01:02:02.119 --> 01:02:07.159
in what this that makes this is silly? That's okay.

656
01:02:07.840 --> 01:02:13.960
Dennis Quaid was a famous actor. His son comes along

657
01:02:14.119 --> 01:02:18.920
and decides he wants to be an actor. Dennis Quaid

658
01:02:19.119 --> 01:02:23.320
or you know, Jack Quaid is going to have grown

659
01:02:23.400 --> 01:02:27.519
up as a child, through his life being around other

660
01:02:27.599 --> 01:02:34.159
famous actors, directors, producers, you know, his whole life or

661
01:02:34.239 --> 01:02:37.800
during the life, you know, for quite a few years,

662
01:02:37.840 --> 01:02:40.960
for however long he's been around for thirty thirty odd years,

663
01:02:41.840 --> 01:02:46.920
So that's the life he knows. So when he becomes

664
01:02:47.480 --> 01:02:49.360
an actor, decided I'm going to be an actor, when

665
01:02:49.360 --> 01:02:52.760
he's maybe in his late teens or whatever, early twenties,

666
01:02:52.840 --> 01:02:58.199
whatever time he decided to do that, pursue it. He's

667
01:02:58.239 --> 01:03:04.400
going to be going for auditions with people who know

668
01:03:04.480 --> 01:03:08.639
who he is, but physically know who he is, maybe

669
01:03:08.719 --> 01:03:16.440
seeing him since he's a little kid growing up, and yeah,

670
01:03:16.519 --> 01:03:23.039
it's going to be it's going to be beneficial for him.

671
01:03:23.280 --> 01:03:27.360
It's going to make a difference. But the thing is,

672
01:03:27.480 --> 01:03:32.400
Jack raid it's really good. I didn't even know who

673
01:03:32.400 --> 01:03:37.719
he was, but or I didn't know. He started his

674
01:03:38.079 --> 01:03:40.559
first role as a minor role in The Hunger Games

675
01:03:40.880 --> 01:03:46.480
twenty twelve, but the first time I really saw him

676
01:03:46.599 --> 01:03:51.519
was twenty nineteen The Boys. That was that superhero thing

677
01:03:51.559 --> 01:03:57.239
I was talking to about, although not really superheroes, they're

678
01:03:57.320 --> 01:04:06.320
very naughty heroes, and he was recently in a movie

679
01:04:06.440 --> 01:04:10.400
called Novacane, and compared to two different movies. I watched

680
01:04:10.440 --> 01:04:14.800
both of them, Companion and Novacane, and they were both good,

681
01:04:17.679 --> 01:04:24.639
really both really good movies. Very different. But he's he's

682
01:04:24.639 --> 01:04:29.840
a good actor. He's thirty three, so I kind of think, well,

683
01:04:32.280 --> 01:04:38.719
Randy Quaid, who's Randy Quaid? Randy Quaid. He's an American

684
01:04:38.760 --> 01:04:44.840
actor and comedian. I'm looking at a picture of him.

685
01:04:44.880 --> 01:04:57.239
I don't really recognize him. He was in uh oh.

686
01:04:57.599 --> 01:05:05.159
He was a cousin on Chevy Chase's National Lampoon. He

687
01:05:05.199 --> 01:05:07.920
was the cousin in that. I remember that. I think,

688
01:05:08.760 --> 01:05:10.960
wasn't it Also in The Grit not the Grinch, but

689
01:05:11.039 --> 01:05:19.559
the Christmas It was like a Christmas Father Christmas, but

690
01:05:20.119 --> 01:05:28.159
the opposite to that. Ill don't want to see it.

691
01:05:28.159 --> 01:05:32.760
It would be the last probably ten years or so. Wow,

692
01:05:34.400 --> 01:05:42.480
let me see. So if I go back, WHA, He's

693
01:05:42.519 --> 01:05:48.840
been in a lot of things. He hasn't been anything

694
01:05:48.880 --> 01:05:56.280
since twenty eighteen. Real times, I wonder what that is

695
01:05:59.000 --> 01:06:03.079
he must have. Maybe he's just been doing TV stuff.

696
01:06:06.719 --> 01:06:09.039
There's been lots of things. Anyway, he wasn't in the

697
01:06:09.119 --> 01:06:16.039
thing I was thinking about, mind you is this TV

698
01:06:16.360 --> 01:06:21.280
or is it movies? No, it's movies and TV a

699
01:06:21.280 --> 01:06:33.239
bit of both. Moonmad's precincts Oh hard rain. Nope, it

700
01:06:33.280 --> 01:06:36.360
seems to be one of these actors. That is, he

701
01:06:36.440 --> 01:06:42.480
was in Brokeback Mountain, so he was. It's a lot

702
01:06:42.559 --> 01:06:45.960
of movies or TV movies and movies and TV shows

703
01:06:45.960 --> 01:06:51.519
where he wasn't necessarily the star, but he was like

704
01:06:51.599 --> 01:06:55.840
a co star, or he was a part of the cast.

705
01:06:56.079 --> 01:07:01.320
And well, let's face it, they're the ones that make

706
01:07:01.400 --> 01:07:05.039
up most of the show, don't they. The I don't

707
01:07:05.079 --> 01:07:09.679
mean bit actors, but just actors in movies. You know,

708
01:07:09.920 --> 01:07:12.719
they're the ones that if it wasn't for them, if

709
01:07:12.760 --> 01:07:15.760
it was only the stars in the show, then every

710
01:07:15.840 --> 01:07:19.760
movie would be like the George Clooney one in Space,

711
01:07:20.480 --> 01:07:24.519
where there's only two members of cast, which worked for

712
01:07:24.519 --> 01:07:28.920
that movie but probably not for everything, wouldn't work so

713
01:07:29.039 --> 01:07:34.199
much in a The Titanic if there was only two people.

714
01:07:35.840 --> 01:07:42.159
How did Hollywood manage to turn Titanic the worst aviation

715
01:07:42.440 --> 01:07:47.159
disaster in history? How could they turn that into a

716
01:07:47.199 --> 01:07:53.119
love story? That just boggles me still, I can't watch it.

717
01:07:53.199 --> 01:07:57.599
I was like, the music's wonderful.

718
01:07:57.199 --> 01:07:57.280
The.

719
01:08:00.119 --> 01:08:07.000
Know, the everything, the the you know, the detail of

720
01:08:07.039 --> 01:08:13.360
the ship, all that stuff is amazing. But and also

721
01:08:13.880 --> 01:08:18.880
we got to see, you know, and there was that scene.

722
01:08:19.600 --> 01:08:26.800
But why how I'm sure I watched that that her

723
01:08:26.840 --> 01:08:29.960
when she's being drawn she recall it just the drawing

724
01:08:30.039 --> 01:08:34.000
scene or is it painting? Drawing on a Sunday afternoon,

725
01:08:35.640 --> 01:08:41.479
which is unusual to see things like that on British

726
01:08:41.520 --> 01:08:46.640
television during the day. I think they must have just forgotten,

727
01:08:47.800 --> 01:08:49.560
or maybe it was Christmas and they were just giving

728
01:08:49.600 --> 01:08:52.319
them on a bit of a treat, a nipple treat,

729
01:08:53.159 --> 01:08:59.399
and I just have a look down to Abbey. I

730
01:08:59.479 --> 01:09:04.279
watched the very first episode of Downton Abbe at Christmas

731
01:09:04.319 --> 01:09:10.439
period when I was at my dad's for Christmas, probably

732
01:09:10.479 --> 01:09:17.760
two thousand and thirteen was it two thousand and no,

733
01:09:18.119 --> 01:09:35.000
maybe two thousand and thirteen, twoy ten? Really? So yeah? Okay.

734
01:09:35.399 --> 01:09:38.399
Over sixty percent of people listen to podcasts at least

735
01:09:38.399 --> 01:09:44.720
once a month. I'm back. Podcast listeners are highly engaged,

736
01:09:44.800 --> 01:09:49.079
with seventy one percent tuning into episodes within twenty five

737
01:09:49.680 --> 01:09:59.000
hours of release. Most listeners subscribe to over three podcasts

738
01:09:59.039 --> 01:10:06.640
per week, favoring shows with regular releases. Okay, well, I'm

739
01:10:06.680 --> 01:10:11.039
fairly regular, ask my toilert meni meani meani meani me.

740
01:10:11.760 --> 01:10:16.680
Thirty four percent of Americans listen to podcasts weekly, up

741
01:10:16.960 --> 01:10:26.000
from twenty six percent in two thy twenty two. Sweden

742
01:10:26.359 --> 01:10:32.560
lead to the world in podcast consumption, with forty seven

743
01:10:32.680 --> 01:10:38.600
percent of respondents indicating they listened to a podcast in

744
01:10:38.720 --> 01:10:43.439
the last twelve months. So, hello Sweden, have I got

745
01:10:43.479 --> 01:10:49.720
any Swedish Swedish people that listen? If you're from Sweden,

746
01:10:50.000 --> 01:10:57.039
please say hi, Please say hi Swedish. My Swedish, beautiful

747
01:10:57.079 --> 01:11:04.800
Swedish audience one from Sweden, Sweden, and you one from Sweden.

748
01:11:06.720 --> 01:11:12.039
Let so look, this is the main on my speaker podcasts.

749
01:11:12.399 --> 01:11:20.520
United States, United Kingdom, then Canada, Australia, Spain, Ireland, Denmark, Norway,

750
01:11:20.960 --> 01:11:31.960
New Zealand, United Arab Emirates. Right, I'm going to go

751
01:11:32.079 --> 01:11:34.880
a little bit more deep from this one. Go for

752
01:11:34.960 --> 01:11:40.159
the last year. So United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, Ireland,

753
01:11:40.279 --> 01:11:49.319
New Zealand, Denmark, Spain, Norway, France, Germany, Iceland, the Netherlands, Sweden. Okay,

754
01:11:49.439 --> 01:11:54.840
so Sweden is on that list. Iraq, South Africa, United

755
01:11:54.960 --> 01:12:02.119
Arab Emirates, Taquia used to be called Turkey. That's takya. See,

756
01:12:02.159 --> 01:12:12.800
I'll get good and I India, Singapore, Mexico, Saudi Arabia, Israel, Belgium,

757
01:12:14.560 --> 01:12:22.479
Chechia and others. That's not listed, but there's quite a few, yeah,

758
01:12:22.520 --> 01:12:25.600
others that aren't there. So that's the top countries. It

759
01:12:25.720 --> 01:12:29.560
can not get all the countries. Nope, it's not giving

760
01:12:29.560 --> 01:12:33.600
me all the countries. So in Sweden, according to this,

761
01:12:36.000 --> 01:12:47.079
Stockholm County, Fastra, Gotterland County, Ostergotland County, Scan County. There's

762
01:12:47.079 --> 01:12:56.000
a lot of counties here block Blecking County Oribro County.

763
01:12:56.880 --> 01:13:01.720
By the way, I realize I'm very likely miss pronounced

764
01:13:02.079 --> 01:13:12.279
these words, but I'm doing my bestest. Fast man Land County,

765
01:13:13.039 --> 01:13:17.800
John Coping. That's the only one without a county on it.

766
01:13:17.960 --> 01:13:23.920
At Uppsala Upsala County. Why does that ring a bell?

767
01:13:25.239 --> 01:13:33.520
Holland County, Gavlenborg County, de Lana County, farm Land County.

768
01:13:34.199 --> 01:13:34.399
Ah.

769
01:13:39.359 --> 01:13:44.119
The thing is the whole. When the New Star Trek

770
01:13:44.239 --> 01:13:49.000
came out, I was very kind of anti in the

771
01:13:49.159 --> 01:13:52.800
sense of it's not really better than the original, why bother?

772
01:13:53.800 --> 01:13:56.680
Why bother with the original? And then when I started

773
01:13:56.720 --> 01:13:59.319
watching it, so I didn't watch it for the first

774
01:14:01.239 --> 01:14:03.680
For years, I wouldn't watch it, and then I started

775
01:14:03.720 --> 01:14:11.479
watching it and I loved it. And then I felt

776
01:14:11.560 --> 01:14:13.600
like I could never go back to watch the original

777
01:14:13.600 --> 01:14:17.199
because that would just be rubbish compared to this. So

778
01:14:17.239 --> 01:14:21.680
I didn't watch the original for decades. And then I've

779
01:14:21.680 --> 01:14:25.800
seen the original recently. It's been on I don't know

780
01:14:25.840 --> 01:14:29.079
where it was, but I watched it and the original

781
01:14:29.159 --> 01:14:35.119
is still brilliant, you know, if you bearing in mind

782
01:14:35.840 --> 01:14:40.199
it's old, and if you're not watching it because you

783
01:14:40.279 --> 01:14:43.399
want to see the special effects, which were pretty special

784
01:14:43.479 --> 01:14:49.239
at the time, but they were funny. They had good stories,

785
01:14:50.640 --> 01:14:53.760
good dialogue, good it was. Yeah, they were good. I

786
01:14:53.960 --> 01:15:00.960
liked them, still do. So that's Sweden. I don't know.

787
01:15:01.399 --> 01:15:08.279
It's not given me. Okay. The thing is I found

788
01:15:08.319 --> 01:15:11.479
out a while ago. Maybe let me know, go to

789
01:15:11.560 --> 01:15:13.439
my website and just send me a message if you're

790
01:15:13.479 --> 01:15:18.840
from China, because I had some missies a while back

791
01:15:18.920 --> 01:15:22.560
saying you've got to me that I've got a following

792
01:15:22.640 --> 01:15:26.199
in China. But people use they can't get me on

793
01:15:26.439 --> 01:15:31.000
the Chinese Internet, so they use d what do they

794
01:15:31.079 --> 01:15:39.039
call it, ah dns, not dns those it's like an

795
01:15:39.039 --> 01:15:41.520
app that you can use which changes what country you're

796
01:15:41.560 --> 01:15:46.159
in so you can gain access to other countries' content.

797
01:15:48.279 --> 01:15:51.600
Is it DNS? I don't know what the right word is.

798
01:15:52.439 --> 01:16:00.319
So I'd be interested to know how many people from

799
01:16:00.560 --> 01:16:04.399
China listening, because I don't get those stats. Don't get

800
01:16:04.399 --> 01:16:11.159
the stats from China. Don't get the stats from He's

801
01:16:11.199 --> 01:16:14.760
talking about the stats again. I know, Oh, I know.

802
01:16:17.079 --> 01:16:21.199
I mean I don't even get the stats from I'm

803
01:16:21.239 --> 01:16:23.600
sure I get people must get for people from Thailand.

804
01:16:23.880 --> 01:16:29.880
And I mean Germany's not even on there. Yes, it

805
01:16:30.000 --> 01:16:40.800
is the United States, United Kingdom, Spain, Ireland, Canada, Australia, Ireland,

806
01:16:42.079 --> 01:16:48.479
so it's yeah, the Netherlands, Belgium. So I kind of

807
01:16:48.560 --> 01:16:51.000
upset everyone in Belgium because people in Belgium still listen

808
01:16:51.119 --> 01:16:54.680
to me because you probably realize that I actually really

809
01:16:54.800 --> 01:16:59.159
like Belgium. But I don't have to like your country

810
01:16:59.239 --> 01:17:01.520
for you to listen. Don't have to I don't have

811
01:17:01.560 --> 01:17:05.119
to like my country to listen. All countries are different

812
01:17:05.199 --> 01:17:08.680
and we have different experiences. I mean, you might come

813
01:17:08.760 --> 01:17:12.439
to England to think, oh, but you might come another time.

814
01:17:12.479 --> 01:17:18.439
I think, yeah, you know, it's different. I think that's

815
01:17:18.520 --> 01:17:32.600
very expressive me right, Oh, listen to it. Oh. In Australia,

816
01:17:32.880 --> 01:17:37.199
over a billion podcasts were downloaded in twoenty twenty three,

817
01:17:38.079 --> 01:17:44.239
with January twenty twenty four alone seeing ninety point three

818
01:17:44.560 --> 01:17:55.279
million downloads. Wow, that's a lot, isn't it. I mean,

819
01:17:55.319 --> 01:17:59.239
I know I've got I've got an Australian audience. I

820
01:17:59.399 --> 01:18:06.520
know that it's it seems to move between so United States,

821
01:18:06.840 --> 01:18:11.239
is it always has been up to this point, the

822
01:18:11.399 --> 01:18:16.000
top like the most, the place where I'm listening to most,

823
01:18:18.439 --> 01:18:21.760
United Kingdom comes second. There was a time when the

824
01:18:21.880 --> 01:18:24.760
United Kingdom didn't even come second. Took ages for me

825
01:18:24.840 --> 01:18:27.359
to get to get anyone from my own country to listen.

826
01:18:27.960 --> 01:18:33.760
I think Australia and Canada was above me, above my

827
01:18:33.880 --> 01:18:40.039
own country. But now it's yeah, fir a firm second,

828
01:18:41.000 --> 01:18:44.920
then Canada, then Australia. I mean that's just in the

829
01:18:45.000 --> 01:18:50.680
last thirty days. If we go for the last twelve months,

830
01:18:53.000 --> 01:19:01.079
it's Australia's third. So United States, United Kingdom, Australia, then Canada,

831
01:19:01.319 --> 01:19:05.399
then Ireland then New Zealand. And I suppose that does

832
01:19:05.560 --> 01:19:13.119
make sense where these are generally English speaking countries. I

833
01:19:13.239 --> 01:19:17.159
say English like as a English would quite often, I

834
01:19:17.279 --> 01:19:21.279
say often be the first language. So in the United States,

835
01:19:21.800 --> 01:19:28.000
in the United Kingdom, Australia, and Ireland, I know everyone

836
01:19:28.079 --> 01:19:33.279
they've got their own language as well. But Canada as

837
01:19:33.399 --> 01:19:38.560
parts of Canada that have French, I realize, and New Zealand.

838
01:19:38.680 --> 01:19:42.560
So it's they're like one, two, three, four, five, six.

839
01:19:43.600 --> 01:19:49.000
The six countries probably the six main countries where English

840
01:19:49.159 --> 01:19:55.239
is the prominent or the dominant language. I would say,

841
01:19:57.079 --> 01:19:59.960
perhaps I might be wrong, I might be completely wrong.

842
01:20:00.680 --> 01:20:05.560
And you're South Africa a lot of people would speak English,

843
01:20:05.600 --> 01:20:11.119
and South Africa. I don't know what the level of

844
01:20:12.079 --> 01:20:16.920
English is in other countries because I'm getting I don't know.

845
01:20:17.199 --> 01:20:19.720
Is there a way of listening to me through some

846
01:20:20.000 --> 01:20:24.840
kind of It's just I'm guessing if someone doesn't speak English,

847
01:20:24.880 --> 01:20:27.640
they wouldn't be listening to me, unless I mean they've

848
01:20:27.640 --> 01:20:31.600
got an interpreter shouting in their ear. I don't know,

849
01:20:32.439 --> 01:20:37.960
Or is there a way of listening to this and

850
01:20:38.760 --> 01:20:42.680
it's speaking in a different language. Now I'm able to

851
01:20:42.760 --> 01:20:52.760
do that in there's a website called eleven Labs, so

852
01:20:52.920 --> 01:20:58.720
I can try not transcribe, I can not mute. What's

853
01:20:58.760 --> 01:21:01.800
the right word what's all right? Dub I can dub

854
01:21:03.399 --> 01:21:10.199
my recording into different languages with pretty much my voice.

855
01:21:11.159 --> 01:21:13.319
So I've got that all set up if I wanted

856
01:21:13.359 --> 01:21:18.800
to do it, But it's expensive. Eleven labs, I'll tell

857
01:21:18.800 --> 01:21:26.159
you right lefton labs, eleven labs. Just have a look.

858
01:21:27.720 --> 01:21:32.880
So loging sometimes I leave it so long between loggins

859
01:21:32.920 --> 01:21:40.960
that I forget what my login information is. So you've

860
01:21:41.000 --> 01:21:50.319
got dubbing. Click on dubbing, so I can do localized

861
01:21:50.359 --> 01:21:55.039
content across twenty nine languages with AI dubbing. So I

862
01:21:55.119 --> 01:22:00.239
can use my voice. So I've got the voice is

863
01:22:00.279 --> 01:22:07.439
on here? Get started? Okay, where is it? My voice

864
01:22:07.520 --> 01:22:19.279
is fifty four year old English Jason AI. So I

865
01:22:19.439 --> 01:22:23.560
did this? When did I do this? Quite a while ago?

866
01:22:23.600 --> 01:22:26.359
Because I was playing with it, just saying, you know,

867
01:22:27.239 --> 01:22:31.279
just seeing what it sounds like. Few history kind of

868
01:22:31.439 --> 01:22:34.039
let's view history. Maybe that lets me know when I

869
01:22:34.159 --> 01:22:37.960
did it, when I first did it five months ago.

870
01:22:39.640 --> 01:22:48.600
All right, So I can upload a recording and dub

871
01:22:48.640 --> 01:22:59.560
it into a different language. The problem is it costs.

872
01:23:00.680 --> 01:23:07.720
It really do cost money. And I'm just going to

873
01:23:07.800 --> 01:23:18.119
try and see what I've got. Ten thousand credits, so

874
01:23:18.319 --> 01:23:20.720
this this but that doesn't give you much. So if

875
01:23:20.760 --> 01:23:23.600
I go to upgrade, I'll tell you what I can get.

876
01:23:24.319 --> 01:23:26.640
I go for a monthly. I never do yearly. It

877
01:23:26.720 --> 01:23:27.920
does give you a less amount.

878
01:23:28.640 --> 01:23:28.880
It's it.

879
01:23:30.079 --> 01:23:34.319
I must have been really, really a little bit slow,

880
01:23:35.439 --> 01:23:40.760
you know, in the past. But sometimes I'd look and

881
01:23:40.880 --> 01:23:45.119
it says build. I didn't realize it says oh, because

882
01:23:45.640 --> 01:23:48.800
quite often to say okay, eighteen pounds thirty three a month,

883
01:23:50.000 --> 01:23:52.760
or you can pay twenty twenty nine pounds a month.

884
01:23:52.840 --> 01:23:54.560
It's like I'm going to go for the eighteen thirty

885
01:23:54.600 --> 01:23:57.520
three a month, not realizing that they were going to

886
01:23:57.600 --> 01:24:01.640
take off a whole year's worth of like it'll all

887
01:24:01.720 --> 01:24:06.159
in one go. So I'm very very careful to click

888
01:24:06.399 --> 01:24:12.880
build a monthly, so a look for the very first one.

889
01:24:13.239 --> 01:24:18.239
It's free forever. But you get ten thousand tokens. I

890
01:24:18.319 --> 01:24:22.159
don't know what that gives you. Not much. You got

891
01:24:22.199 --> 01:24:26.600
the five pounds, the five pounds five dollars starter, so

892
01:24:26.720 --> 01:24:30.920
that's for a hobbyist. Twenty two pounds a month gives

893
01:24:30.960 --> 01:24:38.560
you one hundred thousand tokens, and then a thirty thirty

894
01:24:38.680 --> 01:24:44.640
cents per thousand, and then you've got the pro ninety

895
01:24:44.760 --> 01:24:50.439
nine dollars for creators ramping up their content productivity, and

896
01:24:50.560 --> 01:24:54.800
then three hundred and thirty dollars a month for startups

897
01:24:54.840 --> 01:25:06.319
and publishers. So I would probably need that one. In fact,

898
01:25:06.560 --> 01:25:10.039
I probably need the higher one, so oney, three hundred

899
01:25:10.039 --> 01:25:13.640
and twenty a month for rapidly scaling startups and publishers.

900
01:25:15.479 --> 01:25:20.319
I mean, let me just see how many tokens it

901
01:25:20.600 --> 01:25:25.720
takes to do a dubbing. So if I do creating

902
01:25:25.760 --> 01:25:31.880
a dub untitled project product, they're just putting do and

903
01:25:31.920 --> 01:25:39.159
I'm going to upload an audio upload or click to

904
01:25:39.279 --> 01:25:49.399
upload here, so's go to downloads. Really it's weird, okay, focusing.

905
01:25:49.720 --> 01:25:53.640
I want to find something that isn't too big, Okay,

906
01:25:53.920 --> 01:25:59.319
focusing on a pleasant feeling. So this is only twenty

907
01:25:59.399 --> 01:26:11.279
minutes long, so detect. So I've got one speaker, select languages,

908
01:26:12.239 --> 01:26:18.680
so I've called it ds DSS double d ds SDD

909
01:26:18.960 --> 01:26:25.239
or whatever language languages English target language should we say?

910
01:26:28.359 --> 01:26:36.840
Or about what country should we go for? Well, Australian,

911
01:26:37.039 --> 01:26:47.920
I haven't got Australian here, Japanese, let's go French, let's

912
01:26:47.920 --> 01:26:53.760
go French. Don't have enough credits to create this dub? Right?

913
01:26:54.079 --> 01:26:55.840
What it needs to do though, is tell me how

914
01:26:55.880 --> 01:27:00.000
many credits I need? Because it's not how many credits

915
01:27:00.119 --> 01:27:07.520
do I need? It's not telling me man ah, perhaps

916
01:27:07.560 --> 01:27:09.159
if I do it to a different language, it'll be

917
01:27:09.239 --> 01:27:17.199
less credits Chinese. No, it's not less credits. Credits remaining

918
01:27:17.239 --> 01:27:23.159
before this dub ten thousand, But what is that for?

919
01:27:23.359 --> 01:27:23.399
For?

920
01:27:23.520 --> 01:27:27.119
How long? Is that for a minute? Is that for

921
01:27:27.239 --> 01:27:31.279
ten minutes? Is you know? What is it? I don't know?

922
01:27:32.800 --> 01:27:37.479
So if I go Spanish, don't have enough credits to

923
01:27:37.920 --> 01:27:46.079
create this dub. So yeah, it's not going to do

924
01:27:46.159 --> 01:27:51.319
it for me. Disabled voice cloning, number of speakers one,

925
01:27:52.399 --> 01:28:01.359
I've got the upload, it's twenty one minutes. Oh, this

926
01:28:01.520 --> 01:28:05.279
is upgrade you plan just this time range.

927
01:28:06.920 --> 01:28:11.760
So I just don't know.

928
01:28:12.199 --> 01:28:14.920
It's not all. Maybe it does, Maybe it does. Dubbing

929
01:28:15.039 --> 01:28:27.199
Dubbin Dubbin Dubbin Starter Kit credits monthly credits thirty thousand,

930
01:28:28.359 --> 01:28:31.119
which isn't a lot because Suden they gave me ten thousand.

931
01:28:31.159 --> 01:28:35.159
I've already used that already up before I'd even done

932
01:28:35.159 --> 01:28:40.159
a recording. There wasn't enough. So thirty thousand five dollars

933
01:28:40.159 --> 01:28:43.960
a month. The thirty thousand credits is what's that going

934
01:28:44.039 --> 01:28:54.479
to give me fifteen minutes twenty minutes. M hmm, me me, me,

935
01:28:54.640 --> 01:29:00.159
me mean his speech to speech thirty minutes minutes to

936
01:29:00.239 --> 01:29:07.399
speech to speech voices, custom voices, ten voices, professional voice cloning.

937
01:29:09.119 --> 01:29:12.399
I've already got that anyway, done, access to a studio.

938
01:29:13.159 --> 01:29:16.600
Maybe I can't use my voice unless I'm in a

939
01:29:16.720 --> 01:29:24.640
higher bracket. Speech to text price per hour Speech to

942
01:29:40.560 --> 01:29:49.520
Here we go, so minutes of video, no minutes of video.

943
01:29:49.520 --> 01:29:54.600
I don't want video. I want I want audio. Why

944
01:29:54.720 --> 01:29:58.119
is it doing video? So it gives me fifteen minutes

945
01:29:58.159 --> 01:30:05.159
of video with a watermark, automatic dubbin or the dubbin

946
01:30:05.279 --> 01:30:09.119
studio gives me six minutes of video. This is for

947
01:30:09.239 --> 01:30:13.560
thirty thousand credits. Six minutes of video with a watermark.

948
01:30:19.079 --> 01:30:25.880
So I'm guessing maybe that's the same. So what it's

949
01:30:25.960 --> 01:30:32.880
telling me, if I'm correct, is just to do that

950
01:30:33.279 --> 01:30:38.800
one recording is going to cost me over twenty dollars

951
01:30:39.880 --> 01:30:46.640
just for that twenty minute recording, which seems ridiculous. How

952
01:30:46.720 --> 01:30:52.960
can that be? How can it be. It don't make

953
01:30:53.159 --> 01:31:01.680
sense to me. Vinnie staring at me again? Why is

954
01:31:01.720 --> 01:31:05.239
he staring? So if I go back to the dubbin,

955
01:31:05.319 --> 01:31:13.239
let's see what Spanish I want to see? Body scan, view,

956
01:31:14.319 --> 01:31:19.640
view it, number of speakings, upload credits, shoes. Okay, you're good,

957
01:31:19.760 --> 01:31:23.039
it's given me. This lasted for seven minutes and thirty

958
01:31:23.079 --> 01:31:28.079
three seconds. So this is turning an English me talking

959
01:31:28.159 --> 01:31:34.960
in English to Spanish. Twenty two thousand, six hundred and

960
01:31:35.000 --> 01:31:45.199
eighty six. So based on that, you see, it's not

961
01:31:45.319 --> 01:31:51.680
financially feasible. It would cost a lot of money to

962
01:31:51.840 --> 01:31:58.880
start doing. I mean, I'd do it if it was

963
01:31:59.119 --> 01:32:08.319
worth you know, if, for example, in Germany people are

964
01:32:08.359 --> 01:32:10.439
going to listen like it. You know, oh if you

965
01:32:10.479 --> 01:32:12.640
did it, if you change it to German, you'd be

966
01:32:13.199 --> 01:32:16.279
very popular and you have millions of people listening. Then

967
01:32:16.439 --> 01:32:22.039
I would try and start to do some But it's

968
01:32:22.399 --> 01:32:30.239
not Yeah, twenty two thousand, twenty two thousand for seven minutes.

969
01:32:31.560 --> 01:32:38.000
It just makes me wonder like in reality, I get

970
01:32:38.680 --> 01:32:43.199
five hundred thousand for one hundred dollars a month, one

971
01:32:43.319 --> 01:32:51.600
hundred thousand four, so twenty two thousand. So let's say

972
01:32:51.920 --> 01:32:57.600
twenty five thousand, twenty five fifty twenty five fifty twenty

973
01:32:57.680 --> 01:33:03.119
five one hundred, Okay, so twenty two dollars, that's seven

974
01:33:03.560 --> 01:33:07.880
fourteen twenty eight, so it's near probably out thirty minutes.

975
01:33:08.760 --> 01:33:11.920
I can get for twenty two dollars a month, thirty

976
01:33:12.039 --> 01:33:18.359
minutes of dubbin. And then I go to the ninety

977
01:33:18.479 --> 01:33:27.119
nine dollars a month, so it's five hundred, so I

978
01:33:27.239 --> 01:33:35.039
can get two four six eight ten, So basically two

979
01:33:35.159 --> 01:33:40.600
four six an hour and forty minutes, so I can

980
01:33:40.680 --> 01:33:43.079
get an hour and forty minutes for ninety nine dollars.

981
01:33:45.159 --> 01:33:50.560
Or Yeah, as we go up higher, it's more, it's

982
01:33:51.039 --> 01:33:58.279
then it's less for additional for additional credits. I just

983
01:33:58.399 --> 01:34:08.479
don't know for me, right, why why not just just

984
01:34:08.640 --> 01:34:11.479
have it at a set price and not do it?

985
01:34:12.119 --> 01:34:15.600
If I'm going to pay for a service, i'd want to.

986
01:34:15.680 --> 01:34:21.159
I don't really want to have additional things or limitations.

987
01:34:22.279 --> 01:34:25.239
A bit like when I was doing podcasts. Quite a

988
01:34:25.239 --> 01:34:28.439
few of the podcasts hosts would limit how many hours

989
01:34:28.520 --> 01:34:32.399
of recordings I could upload in a week or in

990
01:34:32.479 --> 01:34:36.800
a month, or some of them limit how many downloading get.

991
01:34:37.479 --> 01:34:40.800
So the more popular the podcast becomes, the more they

992
01:34:40.960 --> 01:34:49.760
charge you. I was like, wh talking to podcasts? Did

993
01:34:49.840 --> 01:34:56.000
you know that podcasts were increasingly being consumed on smart speakers,

994
01:34:57.159 --> 01:35:01.279
with thirty nine percent of smart speaker us listening to

995
01:35:01.439 --> 01:35:06.800
podcasts at least once a week. No, I don't. I

996
01:35:06.880 --> 01:35:10.239
don't use a smart speaker. I used to have one,

997
01:35:11.159 --> 01:35:13.920
but it used to just keep coming on when everyone

998
01:35:14.039 --> 01:35:17.840
mentioned a certain name, so I just got rid of it.

999
01:35:20.039 --> 01:35:23.920
Around twenty six percent of podcast listeners increase the playback

1000
01:35:24.000 --> 01:35:29.920
speed while listening. Oh do you do that? I think

1001
01:35:30.239 --> 01:35:32.640
people would have to make it slower because I talk

1002
01:35:32.760 --> 01:35:38.399
too fast. Can you imagine someone listening to me on

1003
01:35:38.640 --> 01:35:42.680
fast forward like twice as fast? It kind of defeats

1004
01:35:42.720 --> 01:35:50.960
the object, I would argue. So the next bit, fifty

1005
01:35:51.079 --> 01:35:55.479
six percent of podcast listeners are male, while forty four

1006
01:35:55.560 --> 01:36:02.800
percent of female. Statistics is still a guess, isn't it.

1007
01:36:04.640 --> 01:36:09.000
You know, just because you ask a thousand people in

1008
01:36:09.119 --> 01:36:16.680
the street, and you know, do you do you prefer

1009
01:36:18.439 --> 01:36:27.600
broccoly or oranges? And you get fifty six percent say

1010
01:36:27.640 --> 01:36:32.319
they prefer broccoly to the other percent being forty four

1011
01:36:32.359 --> 01:36:38.119
percent being oranges. It doesn't really It's like, doesn't mean

1012
01:36:38.159 --> 01:36:40.520
you can say okay, the entire country now based on

1013
01:36:40.640 --> 01:36:44.039
that thousand people or that one hundred people, that's the

1014
01:36:44.319 --> 01:36:47.359
that's the statistics now, and that's going to be exactly

1015
01:36:47.560 --> 01:36:52.279
accurate for the rest of the country. What if you

1016
01:36:52.479 --> 01:36:58.079
just happen to, you know, you turn up at a

1017
01:36:58.119 --> 01:37:01.720
place to do that survey and there's a big broccoli

1018
01:37:01.840 --> 01:37:06.880
convention going on. You know, I love broccoli. Everyone's wearing

1019
01:37:06.920 --> 01:37:10.560
I Love Broccoli t shirts. So they're fanatics about broccoli.

1020
01:37:11.159 --> 01:37:14.439
Of course, they're going to like broccoli more than oranges,

1021
01:37:14.640 --> 01:37:19.600
probably more than anything, possibly even more than lego. But

1022
01:37:20.680 --> 01:37:24.319
you see what I mean, all these statistics are just

1023
01:37:24.520 --> 01:37:30.479
kind of this seems a little bit and they do

1024
01:37:30.600 --> 01:37:35.880
that with when it comes to polling that they say, well,

1025
01:37:36.359 --> 01:37:38.600
they're polling. We've done polling, and it's going to be

1026
01:37:38.720 --> 01:37:41.199
this because we've gone into the streets and questioned people

1027
01:37:41.279 --> 01:37:43.840
and this is what's going to happen because we've asked

1028
01:37:43.880 --> 01:37:48.199
people questions. And no, it doesn't mean that. I mean,

1029
01:37:48.600 --> 01:37:52.920
if every nearly every single person you see answers the

1030
01:37:53.000 --> 01:37:56.399
same question, then there's a good chance it might be

1031
01:37:56.720 --> 01:38:06.800
you know, worth listening to. Sixty five percent of consumers.

1032
01:38:06.880 --> 01:38:10.319
Podcast consumers are most likely to listen to episodes on

1033
01:38:10.399 --> 01:38:13.479
a mobile device. I do. I listen on my website.

1034
01:38:13.520 --> 01:38:16.119
If I listen to my website, my podcast, I listen

1035
01:38:16.520 --> 01:38:20.680
on my website. It's just so easy, it's really easy.

1036
01:38:21.439 --> 01:38:23.039
I just find it's the easiest way to do it.

1037
01:38:25.800 --> 01:38:28.199
Or I yeah, yeah, pretty much as I go on

1038
01:38:28.279 --> 01:38:33.159
YouTube as well. Sometimes podcasts account for ten percent of

1039
01:38:33.239 --> 01:38:39.720
all content that millennials listen to. So what's a millennial?

1040
01:38:39.840 --> 01:38:40.119
Is that me?

1041
01:38:41.359 --> 01:38:45.399
Is that someone born before before the turn of the century.

1042
01:38:46.239 --> 01:38:48.880
Is that what a millennial is? Or is it someone

1043
01:38:49.039 --> 01:38:53.399
born after the turn of the century. I'm not sure.

1044
01:38:54.319 --> 01:38:56.359
I don't know what I am. I know I'm not

1045
01:38:56.399 --> 01:39:03.479
a baby boomer because that's my dad's generation. And I'm

1046
01:39:03.520 --> 01:39:07.079
not Gen V or Gen X or Gen Z or gen.

1047
01:39:07.239 --> 01:39:10.000
I don't know. I don't know why I am. I'm

1048
01:39:10.079 --> 01:39:20.520
just old. Podcasts are often consumed during muting commuting, sorry,

1049
01:39:20.760 --> 01:39:24.920
not muting commuting, making them a popular choice for on

1050
01:39:25.159 --> 01:39:31.319
thego entertainment. And I used to listen to audio tapes

1051
01:39:32.760 --> 01:39:39.520
when I was commuting, like self help audios and CDs

1052
01:39:39.560 --> 01:39:44.439
and stuff. Yeah, I did back in the day, as

1053
01:39:44.479 --> 01:39:48.600
before I was into trees. Listeners appreciate the intimate and

1054
01:39:48.840 --> 01:39:53.319
friendly nature of podcasts, which creates a connection similar to

1055
01:39:53.439 --> 01:39:59.760
a friendship. Oh do you find this quite intimate? I

1056
01:40:00.000 --> 01:40:02.600
do a little bit. I think just me and you,

1057
01:40:02.720 --> 01:40:07.279
isn't it. I'm just talking, I'm waffling on, going on

1058
01:40:07.319 --> 01:40:11.119
a bit, possibly maybe not always sticking to the subject.

1059
01:40:11.239 --> 01:40:18.079
And you're listening patiently, possibly falling asleep, but out of boredom,

1060
01:40:18.800 --> 01:40:20.840
even though we both know that this isn't boring. This

1061
01:40:21.000 --> 01:40:22.880
is super exciting, really.

1062
01:40:25.920 --> 01:40:26.000
And.

1063
01:40:31.199 --> 01:40:37.840
Podcasts have cultivated and intimately an intimate listening experience, often

1064
01:40:38.000 --> 01:40:47.039
involving highly produced narratives and host driven storytelling. Well, this

1065
01:40:47.279 --> 01:40:52.159
is not highly produced, by anyway. It's no there no script.

1066
01:40:52.319 --> 01:40:55.640
There's no I'm reading off a screen screen as far

1067
01:40:55.720 --> 01:41:01.079
as the trivia facts or whatever, but there's no planning

1068
01:41:01.199 --> 01:41:04.000
or anything like that. So it's it's not like it's

1069
01:41:04.920 --> 01:41:07.600
been I don't even have to say it to it's

1070
01:41:07.640 --> 01:41:11.840
not being professionally written before I read it out, Because

1071
01:41:12.079 --> 01:41:22.439
that's fairly evident. I would assume podcasts have cultivated Oh,

1072
01:41:22.479 --> 01:41:27.880
I've already read that about therapeutic nature of extended unscripted

1073
01:41:28.079 --> 01:41:37.880
dialogue in podcasts allow for a deeper, more personal conversations. Okay,

1074
01:41:38.359 --> 01:41:44.760
I'll read that again. The therapeutic nature of extended unscripted dialogue,

1075
01:41:45.640 --> 01:41:51.760
which is what I do in podcasts, allows for deeper,

1076
01:41:52.000 --> 01:41:57.680
more personal conversations. I mean, it is are they talking

1077
01:41:57.760 --> 01:42:04.600
about two people talking to each other? Because it is

1078
01:42:04.720 --> 01:42:10.479
kind of a one way conversation, isn't it? But I

1079
01:42:10.560 --> 01:42:16.560
think it feels quite deep and personal personally. Podcasts offer

1080
01:42:16.640 --> 01:42:22.640
a unique space for authentic conversations, allowing celebrities to connect

1081
01:42:22.760 --> 01:42:30.520
with audiences in an age dominated by heavy mediated public personas.

1082
01:42:31.680 --> 01:42:34.560
That was too long, too many words in that sentence,

1083
01:42:35.479 --> 01:42:38.600
But yeah, I can understand a celebrity wanting to show

1084
01:42:38.640 --> 01:42:45.279
who they really are rather than the personality that's portrayed

1085
01:42:45.680 --> 01:42:50.600
on television or whatever. That's why I do this, because

1086
01:42:50.680 --> 01:42:52.840
you know, I just thought I was just so famous,

1087
01:42:53.640 --> 01:42:56.960
always on the TV and in movies, and I thought,

1088
01:42:56.960 --> 01:42:58.880
I just want people to know what I'm really like

1089
01:43:00.680 --> 01:43:06.680
because I just came across as too exciting. That's that's what. Yeah,

1090
01:43:08.520 --> 01:43:13.439
Podcasts have become a significant part of the media diet

1091
01:43:13.800 --> 01:43:19.159
for many. I like that media diet, with some listeners

1092
01:43:19.319 --> 01:43:26.680
to tuning in to multiple episodes daily. So this this

1093
01:43:26.840 --> 01:43:30.319
bit is now saying fun and surprising facts. Twitter was

1094
01:43:30.399 --> 01:43:35.840
born from a fouled podcasting platform called Audio. I remember Audio.

1095
01:43:37.399 --> 01:43:40.720
In fact, I would have probably been with Odio. I

1096
01:43:40.960 --> 01:43:45.279
was with every single podcasting platform, and there was loads

1097
01:43:45.600 --> 01:43:49.520
and loads and loads and most of them went away.

1098
01:43:50.479 --> 01:43:52.279
I don't want to say failed, but yeah, I guess

1099
01:43:52.319 --> 01:43:55.159
that's the probably the right word. Or because a lot

1100
01:43:55.279 --> 01:43:59.720
a lot of companies back in that's time, we're getting funding,

1101
01:44:00.800 --> 01:44:04.680
you know, a lot of websites and online places. We're

1102
01:44:04.680 --> 01:44:10.239
getting a lot of funding, and then they didn't all

1103
01:44:10.399 --> 01:44:13.600
kind of get through the other end. It's the same

1104
01:44:13.760 --> 01:44:17.760
with when YouTube was around. When it first started being around,

1105
01:44:18.960 --> 01:44:23.439
there were loads and loads and loads of video sites

1106
01:44:23.960 --> 01:44:27.520
where you could upload videos. YouTube wasn't the only one.

1107
01:44:28.560 --> 01:44:32.720
It was the most popular and it outlived all the others,

1108
01:44:34.239 --> 01:44:39.840
but there was loads. In fact, one that I used

1109
01:44:39.840 --> 01:44:43.520
to use called Meta Cafe. There's another one as well

1110
01:44:43.680 --> 01:44:46.000
that I used to get more views on those than

1111
01:44:46.039 --> 01:44:49.359
I did on YouTube, but they ended up closing down.

1112
01:44:51.000 --> 01:44:52.800
I don't know about Meta Cafe. I'm not sure if

1113
01:44:52.800 --> 01:45:06.680
it's still around Meta Meta Cafe, Meta Cafe. It was, okay,

1114
01:45:06.760 --> 01:45:11.159
it's not around anymore. It launched two thousand and three.

1115
01:45:11.880 --> 01:45:15.319
It was an Israeli video sharing website. During the mid

1116
01:45:15.399 --> 01:45:18.479
two thousand it was one of the largest video sharing websites,

1117
01:45:19.439 --> 01:45:23.000
and though it eventually began to be superseded by YouTube,

1118
01:45:23.560 --> 01:45:24.960
Vimeo and daily motion.

1119
01:45:28.800 --> 01:45:29.000
WHA.

1120
01:45:29.760 --> 01:45:33.079
On twenty eighth of August twenty twenty one, the platform's

1121
01:45:33.079 --> 01:45:43.079
website became inactive. Now daily motion is another one that

1122
01:45:43.119 --> 01:45:45.680
I used to be with, and Vimeo of course, well,

1123
01:45:45.760 --> 01:45:47.880
I say, of course, but I was with all of them.

1124
01:45:48.479 --> 01:46:01.239
The apparently daily Motion is it not still around? Daily

1125
01:46:01.359 --> 01:46:06.720
Motion is the world's largest independent video shown website based

1126
01:46:06.760 --> 01:46:13.960
in Paris starting two thousand and five. But where is

1127
01:46:14.720 --> 01:46:23.000
the website daily Motion? I'm going to click on it

1128
01:46:23.199 --> 01:46:26.399
because I used to be I used to have loads

1129
01:46:26.439 --> 01:46:36.479
of stuff on there dailymotion dot com. I'm just going

1130
01:46:36.560 --> 01:46:39.239
to see if I'm still on there, because I downloaded

1131
01:46:39.279 --> 01:46:43.800
some videos from there that were from like years literally

1132
01:46:45.479 --> 01:46:48.880
late two thousands. So I'm going to search for me

1133
01:46:49.039 --> 01:46:54.800
names see if I'm still on a just on new Land.

1134
01:46:56.640 --> 01:47:05.239
Oh it's not coming up. Something went wrong videos or

1135
01:47:05.319 --> 01:47:16.119
click refresh. How strange. Maybe I am on there, it's

1136
01:47:16.199 --> 01:47:19.600
just it's not coming up for some reason. In fact,

1137
01:47:19.840 --> 01:47:23.159
nothing's coming up on it. I've got it open dailymotion

1138
01:47:23.319 --> 01:47:29.920
dot com, but there's no there's nothing on it. There's

1139
01:47:30.039 --> 01:47:41.800
no videos, nothing explore. Well, I wonder if I if

1140
01:47:41.880 --> 01:47:50.000
I search daily Emotion and put my name, see if

1141
01:47:50.039 --> 01:47:54.840
anything comes up Daily Emotion, Daily Emotion, Do emotion, do Emotion.

1142
01:47:56.800 --> 01:48:02.680
No daily Emotion. Oh yes, I found it, see my name,

1143
01:48:03.079 --> 01:48:07.000
but the images aren't coming up for some reason. I

1144
01:48:07.319 --> 01:48:12.279
was Buddhist j That was my name back then. That's

1145
01:48:12.279 --> 01:48:16.000
why I always came up as so all the YouTube,

1146
01:48:16.079 --> 01:48:22.039
the podcasts, all the videos, MySpace everything, Buddhist Jay. That

1147
01:48:22.199 --> 01:48:27.119
was the tag I had. I'm beginning to think that

1148
01:48:27.880 --> 01:48:32.680
they have removed my stuff. It's definitely not coming up.

1149
01:48:33.119 --> 01:48:40.840
I don't know why. I don't know why. Oh well.

1150
01:48:45.119 --> 01:48:50.239
Podcasts have been used for cultural or historic audio tours

1151
01:48:50.439 --> 01:48:57.479
of cities. Okay. Cool Podcasts have been utilized by law

1152
01:48:57.560 --> 01:49:01.239
enforcement agencies to provide a way for the community to

1153
01:49:01.359 --> 01:49:05.039
get to know the department's offices. Cool.

1154
01:49:08.880 --> 01:49:08.920
So.

1155
01:49:09.960 --> 01:49:16.680
Podcasts have been used by news outlets to distribute supplemental

1156
01:49:16.880 --> 01:49:25.640
audio or video content. Yes and yeah, so it's quite

1157
01:49:25.640 --> 01:49:32.359
a few facts about podcasts and podcasting. It's I didn't

1158
01:49:32.359 --> 01:49:35.520
know if it was going to stick around, and because

1159
01:49:35.520 --> 01:49:37.680
I know what to do if it doesn't, you know,

1160
01:49:37.800 --> 01:49:39.600
because I just have my website and I have all

1161
01:49:39.680 --> 01:49:47.600
my recordings on there. But it's it's kind of like

1162
01:49:48.079 --> 01:49:53.079
SoundCloud has been around forever a long long time, and

1163
01:49:53.479 --> 01:49:58.800
although it's podcasting on SoundCloud, but it's also music, so

1164
01:50:00.680 --> 01:50:03.119
they will still be around even if podcasts stopped. I

1165
01:50:03.159 --> 01:50:09.079
think sam Cloud will stick around. But then, you know,

1166
01:50:09.199 --> 01:50:12.119
people said about YouTube or YouTube will be gone. No

1167
01:50:12.199 --> 01:50:19.600
one people that get boreder YouTube. They haven't. It's probably

1168
01:50:19.640 --> 01:50:22.239
as strong as it's ever been. There's probably more. I

1169
01:50:22.319 --> 01:50:27.119
think more people watch YouTube, like they get their content

1170
01:50:27.279 --> 01:50:32.680
on YouTube, watching visual content videos or whatever than on

1171
01:50:32.920 --> 01:50:39.600
any other platform, including television, including Netflix, including everything else.

1172
01:50:40.319 --> 01:50:45.239
YouTube has got the biggest, the biggest viewership in the world.

1173
01:50:48.520 --> 01:50:54.600
So you know, maybe hopefully podcasts will grow even more

1174
01:50:54.800 --> 01:51:00.399
in the future and maybe someone will hear about me

1175
01:51:02.119 --> 01:51:06.640
and I'll get some viewers or some listeners. Yeah, it'd

1176
01:51:06.680 --> 01:51:11.319
be groovy, So it'd be more than just being you

1177
01:51:12.239 --> 01:51:19.359
talking together. Yeah. Oh so I'm going to go, So

1178
01:51:19.640 --> 01:51:22.359
thank you for listening. Remember to be kind to yourself

1179
01:51:22.439 --> 01:51:26.000
because you do deserve to be happy and be gentle

1180
01:51:26.039 --> 01:51:37.840
with yourself. You deserve to feel safe, lots of love, bye,

1181
01:51:43.600 --> 01:51:58.119
relax in a more deep and meaningful way, maybe in

1182
01:51:58.199 --> 01:52:03.720
a way that can not just allow you to feel

1183
01:52:05.119 --> 01:52:14.239
calmer now and throughout the time we spend together here,

1184
01:52:16.399 --> 01:52:22.039
not just relaxed at the end of the recording when

1185
01:52:22.119 --> 01:52:28.760
it's finished and you can enjoy that sense of comfort

1186
01:52:28.960 --> 01:52:43.840
and peace, but also I think it would be nice

1187
01:52:43.960 --> 01:53:03.720
to have those feelings of relaxation continue for longer after

1188
01:53:03.840 --> 01:53:14.399
the recording has ended, so that you can still benefit

1189
01:53:17.319 --> 01:53:24.560
from listening to my voice, maybe in a few hours time,

1190
01:53:26.479 --> 01:53:39.920
perhaps tomorrow, and then by listening regularly, especially if you

1191
01:53:40.159 --> 01:53:44.359
find like some people do and myself as well. I

1192
01:53:44.960 --> 01:53:51.680
sometimes I find one particular recording that really resonates with me,

1193
01:53:56.039 --> 01:53:58.399
and I'll just listen to it over and over again

1194
01:54:00.680 --> 01:54:13.720
every morning, every evening. There was this recording from We're

1195
01:54:13.760 --> 01:54:19.439
going back to about nineteen ninety nine. It wasn't hypnosis,

1196
01:54:19.560 --> 01:54:23.560
but it was a guided visualization, so it kind of

1197
01:54:23.720 --> 01:54:31.000
was hypnosis really, and I managed to find it again

1198
01:54:31.840 --> 01:54:37.239
and it still has the same effect on me. And

1199
01:54:37.520 --> 01:54:51.000
part of it was the person's voice relaxed me, just

1200
01:54:51.159 --> 01:54:58.199
felt so peaceful, and I'd look forward to listening to

1201
01:54:58.399 --> 01:55:10.600
her in the morning and in the evening, and I

1202
01:55:10.800 --> 01:55:19.920
knew before even pressing the play button that since I've

1203
01:55:20.000 --> 01:55:24.279
done that pressed the play button. This was in the

1204
01:55:24.399 --> 01:55:38.680
days of CD players press the play button, if that

1205
01:55:38.840 --> 01:55:42.800
it might have even been a tape tape recorder. I'd

1206
01:55:42.880 --> 01:55:52.600
lie down on the bed and then even without necessarily

1207
01:55:53.760 --> 01:56:04.439
listening to her words because I had to memorized. Really,

1208
01:56:09.159 --> 01:56:15.000
it was as if my body knew exactly what to do,

1209
01:56:19.920 --> 01:56:41.600
and the muscles just almost went into automatic relaxation, and

1210
01:56:41.880 --> 01:56:55.560
I remember my mind would slow down. Now. Now, I

1211
01:56:55.960 --> 01:57:02.159
was listening to this recording in the early days of

1212
01:57:02.279 --> 01:57:12.840
learning hypnosis, and long before I ever made any videos

1213
01:57:13.119 --> 01:57:17.760
or audio recordings myself, because I didn't start doing that

1214
01:57:17.960 --> 01:57:32.319
till two thousand and six, I knew, I knew how

1215
01:57:34.159 --> 01:57:47.920
helpful I found being able to just let go, to

1216
01:57:48.079 --> 01:57:53.199
have that trust in the person that I'm listening to,

1217
01:58:00.920 --> 01:58:07.680
knowing that it's going to be just as relaxing, if

1218
01:58:09.079 --> 01:58:18.439
not more so. Each time you hear my voice, you

1219
01:58:18.560 --> 01:58:30.119
may feel the same. Some people have been listening to

1220
01:58:30.279 --> 01:58:44.079
me for over a decade. Maybe not solidly, obviously, not

1221
01:58:44.199 --> 01:58:50.479
twenty four hours a day, but maybe people come back.

1222
01:58:52.359 --> 01:59:05.960
Some people may be listen every day. And something that

1223
01:59:06.119 --> 01:59:19.039
I do which you may not realize by listening is

1224
01:59:23.199 --> 01:59:37.479
when I record these recordings. Now, for example, I also

1225
01:59:39.039 --> 01:59:50.199
am affected by the words that I say. So if

1226
01:59:50.319 --> 02:00:00.640
I set you focus on your feet, notice your feet relaxing,

1227
02:00:04.159 --> 02:00:11.880
I will be focusing on my feet. I will be

1228
02:00:12.159 --> 02:00:30.239
noticing my feet relaxing. If I said, focus on your hands,

1229
02:00:33.039 --> 02:00:42.560
and maybe notice the difference between each hand, perhaps notice

1230
02:00:42.680 --> 02:00:48.720
the the air in the room, the temperature of the room.

1231
02:00:50.640 --> 02:01:01.000
On the backs of your hands. You may start to

1232
02:01:01.600 --> 02:01:09.640
notice what almost feels like a very light breeze, even

1233
02:01:09.720 --> 02:01:13.880
though there may not be any type of breeze at

1234
02:01:14.000 --> 02:01:26.920
all where you are right now. And as you become

1235
02:01:27.600 --> 02:01:41.960
aware of your hands, I'm also aware of how relaxed

1236
02:01:42.279 --> 02:02:06.039
my hands are feeling now. And when it comes to

1237
02:02:07.600 --> 02:02:13.600
potentially drifting off to sleep, which may be the reason

1238
02:02:13.960 --> 02:02:30.159
you're listening, I also feel drowsy when I make these recordings.

1239
02:02:34.880 --> 02:02:51.279
I also notice my mind drifting. In fact, at times

1240
02:02:53.359 --> 02:03:07.520
I've actually fallen asleep without even noticing, and then I

1241
02:03:07.680 --> 02:03:19.000
carry on talking. And it's only when I listen back

1242
02:03:19.239 --> 02:03:28.159
to do the editing I hear snoring and I think

1243
02:03:28.640 --> 02:03:38.399
I don't remember snoring. I remember talking. Was this snoring

1244
02:03:38.760 --> 02:03:45.439
was a pig turned up. That's why I sound like

1245
02:03:45.560 --> 02:03:56.600
when I snare and I get really into the whole experience.

1246
02:04:04.560 --> 02:04:14.039
I don't know how you feel, how relaxed you feel

1247
02:04:14.079 --> 02:04:24.640
in your feet, how relaxed you feel in your hands.

1248
02:04:39.720 --> 02:04:51.960
I have noticed more and more that the more relaxed,

1249
02:04:53.680 --> 02:05:08.319
deeper level of color comfort you feel, the easier your

1250
02:05:08.399 --> 02:05:31.880
breathing becomes. It's almost like that additional muscle relaxation. So

1251
02:05:32.039 --> 02:05:55.119
this allows you the breath easier without necessarily focusing on

1252
02:05:55.279 --> 02:06:24.119
your breath, however, being able to notice the ease in

1253
02:06:24.319 --> 02:06:51.479
which you breathe so naturally. You breathe so very easily

1254
02:06:53.079 --> 02:07:39.800
and smoothly. Whenever I imagine my breathing improving. When I've

1255
02:07:39.880 --> 02:07:55.640
got my eyes closed, I tend to visualize a beautiful

1256
02:07:55.840 --> 02:08:12.880
field with tree, some flowers producing all that life giving oxygen.

1257
02:08:33.159 --> 02:08:48.640
It feels nice too, if nothing else, just taking some

1258
02:08:49.279 --> 02:09:31.960
time away from everything, enjoying that feeling of peace serenity

1259
02:09:43.560 --> 02:10:15.760
with a joyful heart. Time seems to just drip by

1260
02:10:20.319 --> 02:11:10.159
so very slowly, relaxed, so deeply peaceful, completely unattached to

1261
02:11:11.039 --> 02:12:07.960
any thoughts, whatsoever in this moment, completely free, noticing that

1262
02:12:15.560 --> 02:13:02.039
your mind has slowed down. Slowed down because nothing really

1263
02:13:02.319 --> 02:13:32.920
requires your attention, you can enjoy the physical sensations of

1264
02:13:33.079 --> 02:13:45.520
allowing the stress to rip out of your body, to

1265
02:13:45.640 --> 02:14:10.319
appear out of every part of your body being released

1266
02:14:15.600 --> 02:14:55.279

02:16:46.760 --> 02:17:20.040
and deeper and deeper. Noticin the feelings in the back

1271

So the theory relaxed. I'm peaceful, so peaceful, relax liquors,

1301
02:46:28.799 --> 02:46:29.079
and you.

1302
02:46:29.159 --> 02:46:36.319
Could start to notice that you are feeling more relaxed,

1303
02:46:39.319 --> 02:46:49.040
even though I've not purposely focused your mind upon that

1304
02:46:50.399 --> 02:46:56.479
sense of physical comfort that is growing within you throughout

1305
02:46:56.600 --> 02:47:09.399
your body, and your mind starts to slow down, and

1306
02:47:09.559 --> 02:47:17.000
that could be almost in recognition of I guess my

1307
02:47:17.280 --> 02:47:29.879
speech not being particularly fast, and things just generally.

1308
02:47:31.159 --> 02:47:32.000
Feel calmer.

1309
02:47:35.559 --> 02:47:43.520
Just by listening to my voice, you give yourself an

1310
02:47:43.600 --> 02:47:51.520
opportunity to take a break from the day, take a

1311
02:47:51.639 --> 02:47:59.280
break from your life as it is, and to give

1312
02:47:59.319 --> 02:48:07.719
yourself a rest, giving yourself permission to take some time off,

1313
02:48:10.040 --> 02:48:15.360
and to allow your body to relax and allow your

1314
02:48:15.559 --> 02:48:26.159
mind to slow down, which in turn releases the tension

1315
02:48:27.559 --> 02:48:36.319
and he stresses that you had in your body. It's

1316
02:48:36.360 --> 02:48:40.920
almost as if the parts of your body just open up,

1317
02:48:42.239 --> 02:48:53.879
allowing the negativity out and at the same time replacing

1318
02:48:54.760 --> 02:49:04.239
that negativity with positive heathing energy, which then fills your

1319
02:49:04.319 --> 02:49:16.120
body up and your mind to also starts to appreciate

1320
02:49:17.040 --> 02:49:35.399
those feelings of increasing confidence, an almost uplifting feeling, positive healing,

1321
02:49:38.600 --> 02:49:47.159
an energy that spreads through your body like a wave

1322
02:49:49.479 --> 02:50:01.600
of comfort, and all this comes and just allowing yourself

1323
02:50:04.440 --> 02:50:09.639
a few minutes, maybe half an hour, however long you

1324
02:50:09.719 --> 02:50:22.280
want it to be, to just rest and allow your

1325
02:50:22.440 --> 02:50:32.319
mind and your body to almost reset itself to the

1326
02:50:33.040 --> 02:50:48.920
settings of comfort and relaxation, calmness, which allows more room

1327
02:50:49.399 --> 02:51:02.440
for feelings of pleasure and happiness to move around your

1328
02:51:02.520 --> 02:51:10.959
body and into your mind, almost as if your mind

1329
02:51:11.040 --> 02:51:21.639
and your body are sinking together, almost mirroring each other

1330
02:51:22.680 --> 02:51:34.760
with that growing positivity and calmness. And it feels nice.

1331
02:51:37.159 --> 02:51:43.159
It really does feel nice to know that you are

1332
02:51:43.200 --> 02:51:53.360
the one that has allowed yourself to feel more comfort

1333
02:51:56.639 --> 02:52:10.079
and to experience more of this deep relaxation spreading throughout

1334
02:52:10.200 --> 02:52:22.399
your body. And as I focus on each part of

1335
02:52:22.520 --> 02:52:34.680
your body, you can notice that that part becomes even

1336
02:52:35.959 --> 02:52:45.239
more relaxed just by focusing on it. It becomes even

1337
02:52:45.479 --> 02:52:58.159
more calm and comfortable just by focusing. And as I

1338
02:52:58.399 --> 02:53:06.159
move down your body, the starting at your head, the

1339
02:53:06.319 --> 02:53:13.520
parts that you've already focused on will continue to relax

1340
02:53:13.840 --> 02:53:20.719
deeply and those parts that we've not yet focused on

1341
02:53:23.040 --> 02:53:34.000
or just automatically release any remain in tension in anticipation

1342
02:53:34.440 --> 02:53:47.440
of even more comfort about to come. Now, I'm going

1343
02:53:47.520 --> 02:53:54.399
to start by focusing on your forehead, just being aware

1344
02:53:55.079 --> 02:54:05.159
the feelings of your forehead, and any background sounds like

1345
02:54:05.399 --> 02:54:10.479
mister Herbert the Pigeon can just allow you to feel

1346
02:54:10.600 --> 02:54:20.600
even more relaxed. Just means you're in the moment. This

1347
02:54:20.760 --> 02:54:25.879
isn't this isn't a sterile environment. This is the world.

1348
02:54:29.360 --> 02:54:35.399
I live in the countryside, so there's lots of nature

1349
02:54:35.920 --> 02:54:46.399
sounds around. So as you focus on your forehead, just

1350
02:54:46.680 --> 02:54:54.440
notice how it becomes even more relaxed as you focus

1351
02:54:56.760 --> 02:55:01.239
only on my voice and that part of your body.

1352
02:55:06.440 --> 02:55:14.719
Moving down to your eyes, focusing on your eyes, noticing

1353
02:55:17.200 --> 02:55:26.879
how your eyelids feel so heavy yet so light at

1354
02:55:26.920 --> 02:55:33.360
the same time, and all the muscles around your eyes

1355
02:55:33.639 --> 02:55:48.079
relaxing completely. Moving your focus down to your mouth, your lips,

1356
02:55:48.520 --> 02:55:55.159
your tongue, your teeth, and your gumbs, the whole of

1357
02:55:55.319 --> 02:56:10.079
your mouth, relaxing, calm and lease. As you focus now

1358
02:56:10.920 --> 02:56:17.799
on your jawl not just the parts of your jaw

1359
02:56:17.920 --> 02:56:22.319
near your mouth and your chin, but all the way

1360
02:56:22.440 --> 02:56:28.799
up the size of your face to your ears, the

1361
02:56:29.079 --> 02:56:53.520
hole of your jaw, feeding more relaxed and calm. Focusing

1362
02:56:57.040 --> 02:57:02.680
on your neck, the front of your neck and your throat,

1363
02:57:04.920 --> 02:57:15.639
relaxing and loose and calm. The side of your neck,

1364
02:57:17.719 --> 02:57:24.639
the right and left side of your neck relax and

1365
02:57:26.200 --> 02:57:39.840
loose and calm, and now the back of your neck,

1366
02:57:43.120 --> 02:57:53.120
focusing on the back of your neck, letting go of

1367
02:57:53.360 --> 02:57:59.159
any tension that may have been there before, and in

1368
02:57:59.639 --> 02:58:12.879
due in that sense of increasing comfort and release that

1369
02:58:13.120 --> 02:58:23.559
you can experience in the back of your neck, moving

1370
02:58:23.799 --> 02:58:30.360
down your back and moving either side of your spine

1371
02:58:31.680 --> 02:58:36.360
right from the top of your back all the way

1372
02:58:36.600 --> 02:58:49.280
down to the bottom of your back down to your

1373
02:58:49.360 --> 02:58:59.840
lower back. And as you move up and down your spine,

1374
02:59:02.040 --> 02:59:06.440
you can feel the muscles either side of your spine

1375
02:59:08.680 --> 02:59:23.239
relaxing even more. And as those muscles relax, that sense

1376
02:59:23.360 --> 02:59:33.840
of comfort starts to spread outwards from your spine into

1377
02:59:34.040 --> 02:59:40.680
both sides of your back, the top of your back,

1378
02:59:41.520 --> 02:59:47.760
the middle and your lower back. And as you scan

1379
02:59:49.479 --> 02:59:57.319
gently and slowly up and down your back, there's the

1380
02:59:57.440 --> 03:00:03.280
muscles in the top of your back relax and become looser.

1381
03:00:07.639 --> 03:00:13.639
The muscles in the middle of your back also seem

1382
03:00:13.760 --> 03:00:23.280
to just almost divide from each other, separating and almost melting,

1383
03:00:29.040 --> 03:00:35.000
And in your lower back there seems to be an

1384
03:00:35.079 --> 03:00:49.280
extra special feeling of comfort. The spreads into your hips.

1385
03:00:51.559 --> 03:00:59.399
Sit down, your lower back into your hips, into the

1386
03:00:59.559 --> 03:01:08.360
area where your cocksicks are, and into your buttocks, and

1387
03:01:08.440 --> 03:01:17.639
all these muscles that spread when your lower back into

1388
03:01:17.719 --> 03:01:31.159
your hip area start to melt, start to really let go,

1389
03:01:37.760 --> 03:01:42.719
I don't even know where about. To focus on your shoulders.

1390
03:01:44.479 --> 03:01:51.479
Your back and your spine will continue to let go,

1391
03:01:54.559 --> 03:02:10.159
continue to relax so calmly. And as you focus on

1392
03:02:10.319 --> 03:02:23.239
your shoulders, you may notice that they're already feeding really loose,

1393
03:02:28.040 --> 03:02:54.000
They're already feeding calm, and they're feeding those muscles. Then

1394
03:02:54.200 --> 03:03:06.600
move from your neck into your shoulders. Feel so soft

1395
03:03:09.879 --> 03:03:35.440
and gentle, so smooth and calm, and the feeding in

1396
03:03:35.559 --> 03:03:50.360
your shoulders seens to spread deep into your shoulders, that

1397
03:03:50.680 --> 03:03:59.559
sense of relaxation, not just traveling deeply into your muscles,

1398
03:04:03.040 --> 03:04:15.920
but also relaxing the bones and moving all the way

1399
03:04:16.159 --> 03:04:21.879
to underneath your arms, relaxing.

1400
03:04:23.040 --> 03:04:24.479
That whole area.

1401
03:04:24.360 --> 03:04:34.120
Between the tops of your shoulders and underneath your arms healing.

1402
03:04:39.520 --> 03:04:52.440
You feel so relaxed and comfortable in your shoulders. Who

1403
03:04:52.799 --> 03:05:15.000
sends that deep healing message into your arms? You may

1404
03:05:15.280 --> 03:05:20.520
feel almost as if your arms are not even there,

1405
03:05:22.040 --> 03:05:43.959
because they're so relaxed, so deeply relaxed, so so calm,

1406
03:05:59.079 --> 03:06:20.920
so loose, not feeling spreading all the way down your arms,

1407
03:06:23.680 --> 03:06:49.680
two elbows in, including your elbows circumforts spreads or away

1408
03:06:52.399 --> 03:07:07.360
into wrists, your forearments and your wrists being so heavy,

1409
03:07:11.040 --> 03:07:51.879
yet at the same time so light and gentle. Frey.

1410
03:07:52.159 --> 03:07:55.840
See now on.

1411
03:07:58.520 --> 03:08:22.639
Your hands, my hands.

1412
03:08:28.440 --> 03:08:58.000
So peaceful in your hands, there's a sense of real peace.

1413
03:09:09.760 --> 03:09:23.520
It just seems to feel so familiar when your hands

1414
03:09:23.879 --> 03:11:00.959
relax deeply, els your things, you thing, it's sadly your

1415
03:11:01.079 --> 03:11:34.840
finger tips, moving your attention to the front of your

1416
03:11:34.959 --> 03:13:00.319
body so comfortable. Move in your focus, your legs, h

1417
03:13:24.239 --> 03:13:26.120
what musculs.

1418
03:13:27.600 --> 03:13:46.440
In your thighs, your knees.

1419
03:13:50.079 --> 03:14:27.479
So relaxed, a carved mussels and just shins co puzy

1420
03:15:20.239 --> 03:16:41.639
four and the faathing in your feet. Sir, peaceful, so calm,

1421
03:16:47.399 --> 03:17:39.440
so peaceful, so calm, so peaceful, so calm, so peace

1422
03:17:40.120 --> 03:18:11.319
f RelA sin peace for so calm, allowing that deep

1423
03:18:11.479 --> 03:18:31.120
relaxation to spread your chest, in your stomach, so letting

1424
03:18:31.639 --> 03:18:49.840
go of everything. So I'm gonna start counting down now,

1425
03:18:52.520 --> 03:19:01.239
from twenty down to one. You can imagine in a

1426
03:19:01.280 --> 03:19:07.079
way it's like just walking down some steps and each

1427
03:19:07.280 --> 03:19:12.920
step or twenty steps, and each step represents a level

1428
03:19:13.479 --> 03:19:26.200
of comfort. Each step represents a deepening of that comfort,

1429
03:19:32.840 --> 03:19:38.520
and the furvies you walk down those steps, the deeper

1430
03:19:38.959 --> 03:19:49.799
and more relaxed you feel. So starting with number twenty

1431
03:20:01.399 --> 03:26:28.159
twenty nineteen, eighteen seventeen sixsting eight four four see too

1432
03:26:28.319 --> 03:30:47.079
well five five nine height.

1433
03:31:46.639 --> 03:34:43.600
Seven six.

1434
03:34:39.520 --> 03:35:59.440
Five four.

1435
03:39:37.159 --> 03:39:37.399
One.

1436
03:40:26.959 --> 03:40:43.959
And now as you focus on your eyes, we're gonna

1437
03:40:44.040 --> 03:40:56.280
count down from ten outs one, focusing just on your eyes,

1438
03:41:00.079 --> 03:41:08.520
your eyelids, the muscles around your eyes, your eye walls themselves,

1439
03:41:10.040 --> 03:41:27.079
a whole area that makes up your eye. And as

1440
03:41:27.159 --> 03:41:35.479
we count down from ten down to one, whilst focus

1441
03:41:35.639 --> 03:41:50.639
in on your eyes, you'll become twice is relaxed with

1442
03:41:51.040 --> 03:42:04.000
each number counting down, and you may find the all

1443
03:42:04.159 --> 03:42:10.280
you want to do is just drift off to sleep.

1444
03:42:13.280 --> 03:42:19.879
And if that's what you want, then just allow yourself

1445
03:42:20.000 --> 03:42:34.639
to do that. Now, focusing on your eyes, I'm going

1446
03:42:34.760 --> 03:42:44.719
to begin counting down from ten down to one right now,

1447
03:42:53.280 --> 03:51:57.760
ten nine eight seven y five four three two one two.

1448
03:52:06.159 --> 03:52:17.479
Counting down from ten to one ten nine eight seven

1449
03:52:19.600 --> 03:52:42.159
six five four three two one. And maybe that was

1450
03:52:42.239 --> 03:52:46.440
a bit too quick in order to relax. Maybe it's

1451
03:52:46.440 --> 03:52:52.360
a bit too fast for you to notice the calming

1452
03:52:52.600 --> 03:52:59.440
of your body, maybe even a little bit of pressure there.

1453
03:52:59.639 --> 03:53:03.079
Like you'll count it down from ten to one. Would

1454
03:53:03.120 --> 03:53:06.559
you expect me to do? Man, expect me to stick

1455
03:53:06.559 --> 03:53:16.120
go with floppy just because you're counting down. You can

1456
03:53:16.200 --> 03:53:19.959
try it again, but this time I go this lower.

1457
03:53:22.159 --> 03:53:27.040
This time, as you focus on the whole of your

1458
03:53:27.079 --> 03:53:35.440
body before we focus on your legs. Just notice how

1459
03:53:35.559 --> 03:53:49.639
your body does start to feel more relaxed with every

1460
03:53:49.799 --> 03:54:42.239
number that I count down ten nine, eight, seven, six, five, four,

1461
03:54:49.680 --> 03:55:41.159
three two one, And just notice how how you feel generally,

1462
03:55:41.600 --> 03:55:55.920
how your body feels. It's not necessarily even about counting

1463
03:55:56.040 --> 03:56:03.159
down from ten to one. It's that space that you have,

1464
03:56:04.479 --> 03:56:22.959
that space between being active physically or mentally to just

1465
03:56:27.680 --> 03:56:32.879
sitting or lying down, just being there, not doing anything,

1466
03:56:33.079 --> 03:56:39.680
not saying anything, or needing to think about anything. So

1467
03:56:40.399 --> 03:56:43.399
it opens up a space, you know, a bit of

1468
03:56:43.440 --> 03:56:54.440
a space, a gap. And the more I came down

1469
03:56:54.479 --> 03:57:01.879
from ten to one, the bigger that gap becomes. So

1470
03:57:02.000 --> 03:57:14.399
there's that gap of calmness, of comfort, relaxation. It's a

1471
03:57:14.559 --> 03:57:28.559
nice feeling, and it moves those stresses or discomforts physically

1472
03:57:28.760 --> 03:57:47.760
or emotionally, moves them away, allows you to just slow down,

1473
03:57:51.399 --> 03:57:54.319
someone to count again from ten down to one, and

1474
03:57:54.520 --> 03:58:04.479
notice that gap widening, the gap, And as it widens,

1475
03:58:04.559 --> 03:58:10.600
it's almost like the distress and attention falls into the

1476
03:58:10.680 --> 03:58:28.559
gap and gives you that distance, that space.

1477
03:58:30.920 --> 03:58:36.399
Now ten.

1478
03:58:40.719 --> 04:00:37.319
Nine, eight, seven, six, five, four three two one. Now,

1479
04:00:37.559 --> 04:00:57.680
how does your body feel now? Can you notice that

1480
04:00:58.799 --> 04:01:35.760
you're feeling calm, the feeling more relaxed as we now

1481
04:01:35.920 --> 04:01:56.280
focus on your legs, just your legs. We're just gonna

1482
04:01:56.719 --> 04:02:16.120
start with focusing on your thighs. Of course, it's not

1483
04:02:16.239 --> 04:02:24.680
the most exciting thing to be doing, because I'm sure

1484
04:02:24.840 --> 04:02:27.440
like most of your body is not a lot going

1485
04:02:27.520 --> 04:02:40.159
on right now. Just focusing on the whole of your thighs,

1486
04:02:43.000 --> 04:02:46.719
the tops of your thighs, the sides of your thighs,

1487
04:02:48.920 --> 04:02:53.399
the bottoms of your thighs. You're outer thighs and you're

1488
04:02:53.520 --> 04:02:58.719
inner thighs. Basically the whole of your thigh that leads

1489
04:02:59.760 --> 04:03:07.239
in to your hip and it goes down to your

1490
04:03:09.360 --> 04:03:21.200
knee joints. Now, this is a big area. It's a

1491
04:03:21.360 --> 04:03:28.159
very heavy area. It's very strong, probably the strongest muscles

1492
04:03:28.200 --> 04:03:41.120
in your body or in your thighs. But I don't

1493
04:03:41.159 --> 04:03:55.719
think we perhaps give enough attention to our thighs. Perhaps

1494
04:03:55.879 --> 04:04:05.920
we don't acknowledge how important to our thighs are to

1495
04:04:06.079 --> 04:04:26.719
our lives, how much they actually do for us all

1496
04:04:26.799 --> 04:04:37.239
through our lives. And it may seem sound really weird,

1497
04:04:37.360 --> 04:04:45.719
but I think that all of our body parts, especially

1498
04:04:45.840 --> 04:04:53.479
our thighs, need some TLC, a bit of love shown,

1499
04:04:54.479 --> 04:05:12.680
a bit of acknowledgement, thank you, gratitude for what our

1500
04:05:12.840 --> 04:05:22.200
thighs do for us. And I know this may sound

1501
04:05:22.239 --> 04:05:28.520
a bit strange. Maybe you think, why am I sure

1502
04:05:28.559 --> 04:05:31.479
that I should be in the garden hugging a tree

1503
04:05:31.680 --> 04:05:39.799
or something. Well, it's hard to set a microphone up

1504
04:05:39.840 --> 04:05:43.159
on a tree. That's why I'm doing this indoors. Otherwise

1505
04:05:43.200 --> 04:05:46.559
I would be outside hugging a tree. Now I can't

1506
04:05:46.600 --> 04:05:55.360
see the television from the tree if you move down

1507
04:05:55.399 --> 04:06:04.520
to your knees, getting such an important part art and

1508
04:06:05.120 --> 04:06:09.559
I think we don't necessarily I'll speak for myself here,

1509
04:06:12.040 --> 04:06:17.159
I don't necessarily appreciate all that my needs do for

1510
04:06:17.280 --> 04:06:23.760
me until I have a problem with my knee. It's occasionally,

1511
04:06:23.799 --> 04:06:28.799
if I ever maybe i'll bash it or it's aching

1512
04:06:28.959 --> 04:06:35.360
for some reason. It's then that I realize how much

1513
04:06:35.479 --> 04:06:39.120
it does. You know, the benefit of being able to

1514
04:06:40.040 --> 04:06:49.280
use my legs without any kind of physical discomfort is

1515
04:06:50.120 --> 04:06:58.840
a beautiful thing that's possibly not appreciated until it's temporarily removed.

1516
04:07:00.040 --> 04:07:06.959
You know that's comfort. But as you focus on your knees,

1517
04:07:09.120 --> 04:07:14.760
regardless of how your knees feel, you can have that

1518
04:07:15.040 --> 04:07:21.159
sense of gratitude and love to your knees for all

1519
04:07:21.319 --> 04:07:33.520
that they do for you, And you can still have

1520
04:07:33.680 --> 04:07:37.840
that attention on your thighs and maybe notice how your

1521
04:07:37.959 --> 04:07:49.799
thighs feel. Maybe you've notice that they are relaxing more

1522
04:07:51.600 --> 04:08:03.200
deeply as you focus now on the bottoms of your legs,

1523
04:08:03.719 --> 04:08:09.479
your shins and your calf muscles, the bones between your

1524
04:08:10.440 --> 04:08:16.079
knees and your feet incorporate, and of course your ankles

1525
04:08:18.440 --> 04:08:29.520
so important. Anyone that's had even like the slightest sprain

1526
04:08:29.639 --> 04:08:36.600
of an ankle knows how how much we take our

1527
04:08:36.840 --> 04:08:45.399
ankles for granted. And it's kind of strange in a

1528
04:08:45.440 --> 04:08:51.040
way when you think that. You know, logically, our wrists

1529
04:08:51.200 --> 04:08:54.040
are a lot thinner than the rest of our arms,

1530
04:08:55.159 --> 04:08:58.760
which is okay, it doesn't can't see any problem with

1531
04:08:58.840 --> 04:09:04.239
that because we're just picking stuff up. But our ankles

1532
04:09:06.040 --> 04:09:15.959
so much thinner than the rest of our legs, and

1533
04:09:16.120 --> 04:09:20.600
from a physics perspective or logical even it doesn't really

1534
04:09:20.719 --> 04:09:27.959
make sense that all this weight would ultimately be resting

1535
04:09:29.000 --> 04:09:38.959
on your ankles then leading to your feet, that thin area,

1536
04:09:40.440 --> 04:09:50.079
thin bone. Yeah, it does so much great work. Supports us,

1537
04:09:50.159 --> 04:09:59.959
supports our body for a lifetime, helps us to balance,

1538
04:10:00.040 --> 04:10:08.799
It helps you to get her around and be mobile.

1539
04:10:15.159 --> 04:10:22.959
And there's the calf muscles. Of course, when I was younger,

1540
04:10:23.319 --> 04:10:26.639
I couldn't see the point in calf muscles. Didn't seem

1541
04:10:26.680 --> 04:10:31.760
to do anything. Okay, if I walked around on tiptoes,

1542
04:10:32.520 --> 04:10:36.399
then my calf muscles get some work. But of course

1543
04:10:36.479 --> 04:10:40.600
that's not true. The calf muscles are being used whenever

1544
04:10:40.680 --> 04:10:52.600
we use her legs and your shins there to protect

1545
04:10:54.559 --> 04:11:03.239
your lower legs shape in a way, almost as a

1546
04:11:03.280 --> 04:11:15.559
protector for the bone, leading of course to your ankles

1547
04:11:18.959 --> 04:11:25.520
and your feet. But we're not going to focus on

1548
04:11:25.639 --> 04:11:27.719
your feet. We're just going to focus on the legs.

1549
04:11:29.680 --> 04:11:34.280
And I realize that now that I've mentioned your feet,

1550
04:11:34.399 --> 04:11:39.040
it probably focuses on them anyway, So maybe I should

1551
04:11:39.120 --> 04:11:45.079
focus on your feet a little bit. You can have

1552
04:11:45.239 --> 04:11:50.440
them in your awareness the same as you have your

1553
04:11:50.559 --> 04:11:54.799
thighs in your awareness. Even though we haven't been focusing

1554
04:11:55.520 --> 04:12:00.479
on your thighs a few minutes, let me in on

1555
04:12:00.600 --> 04:12:17.799
your ankles. There's still that sensation of comfort in your thighs,

1556
04:12:22.799 --> 04:12:30.120
and there's that movement of energy because the thighs hold

1557
04:12:32.079 --> 04:12:37.360
lots of different sensations. Of course, there's the muscles, the

1558
04:12:37.680 --> 04:12:50.159
big strong muscles that we have in our thighs. But

1559
04:12:50.319 --> 04:12:55.959
the skin on the outside of the thighs, as in

1560
04:12:56.479 --> 04:13:02.239
the outside of all of our body, can be very sensitive,

1561
04:13:06.159 --> 04:13:19.360
sensitive to the touch, sensitive to temperature, and inside your

1562
04:13:19.479 --> 04:13:26.920
thighs the bones, there's the muscle, there's the blood, vessels,

1563
04:13:27.079 --> 04:13:32.879
the arch trees, all this stuff that's inside your thighs.

1564
04:13:37.319 --> 04:13:40.680
I guess sometimes it'd be nice if you could actually

1565
04:13:40.719 --> 04:13:48.120
put your fingers inside your thighs and a message, so

1566
04:13:48.239 --> 04:13:51.799
you can message on the outside, of course, but to

1567
04:13:51.840 --> 04:13:55.000
be able to get deep into the muscles and to

1568
04:13:55.040 --> 04:14:00.280
be able to just message inside your thighs, in the

1569
04:14:00.399 --> 04:14:09.120
bones of your leg massage in or the veins and

1570
04:14:09.319 --> 04:14:19.719
just gently healing your thighs, and you could move down

1571
04:14:21.799 --> 04:14:26.840
massage and inside your knees, just message in those bones,

1572
04:14:27.840 --> 04:14:34.879
but with healing fingertips, spreading that healing energy deep into

1573
04:14:35.000 --> 04:14:44.399
the joints of your knees. Of course, there's the back

1574
04:14:44.680 --> 04:14:49.600
of your your knee, you know, the inside crease where

1575
04:14:49.639 --> 04:14:57.079
your knee is. It's a very sensitive area. Very it

1576
04:14:57.120 --> 04:15:01.000
feels very nice when you stroke it. That might be

1577
04:15:01.159 --> 04:15:05.120
because it's an area that's not really touched very often.

1578
04:15:07.159 --> 04:15:14.000
It's almost like a hidden part, that crease in your legs.

1579
04:15:14.120 --> 04:15:21.440
It's almost like a part that has a sensitivity, which

1580
04:15:21.520 --> 04:15:31.959
is a little bit different. Of course, it's protected by

1581
04:15:32.000 --> 04:15:43.440
your legs. So you can imagine putting your fingers into

1582
04:15:43.520 --> 04:15:53.959
that crease in your legs, folding between your legs, you

1583
04:15:54.040 --> 04:15:59.760
can just message with your fingertips. Imagine your fingertips going inside,

1584
04:16:01.479 --> 04:16:10.040
massage in the muscle tissue. You can of course field

1585
04:16:10.120 --> 04:16:23.799
the bones of your knees, healing through your fingertips. And

1586
04:16:23.879 --> 04:16:29.479
then as you go down to your calf muscles, and

1587
04:16:29.639 --> 04:16:32.319
that's the part. I'd like to be able to really

1588
04:16:33.200 --> 04:16:39.479
put my fingertips deep inside my calf muscles, massage in

1589
04:16:39.920 --> 04:16:54.520
every single tissue of that muscle, healing every part, and

1590
04:16:54.639 --> 04:17:01.840
then doing the same for my shins, sagan and gently

1591
04:17:02.040 --> 04:17:09.159
stroking the bones, gently stroking them, hewing in a loving way,

1592
04:17:10.479 --> 04:17:16.840
because they deserve to be treated as the precious bones

1593
04:17:16.920 --> 04:17:21.559
that they are, because our legs are so precious as

1594
04:17:21.639 --> 04:17:26.360
in all the other parts of our body, and more

1595
04:17:26.399 --> 04:17:40.719
precious of anyture on the planet. When you start to

1596
04:17:42.280 --> 04:17:53.280
think about your legs in this way, it can change

1597
04:17:53.440 --> 04:18:02.920
your perspective. It might sound a bit a bit silly

1598
04:18:03.079 --> 04:18:08.680
to start with the idea of having love for your legs,

1599
04:18:10.120 --> 04:18:17.840
showing appreciation for your thighs, wanting to be able to

1600
04:18:18.559 --> 04:18:25.680
put your hands in your thighs the massage the muscles

1601
04:18:26.600 --> 04:18:31.520
and the bones, and to get your fingers deep in there,

1602
04:18:32.760 --> 04:18:41.479
releasing all tension, just to show how much you care

1603
04:18:44.760 --> 04:18:49.920
about your legs, how much you care for what your

1604
04:18:50.000 --> 04:18:59.680
legs do for you regularly, your knees, your calves, your ankles.

1605
04:19:03.959 --> 04:19:11.559
The strength of your ankles, considering how thin they are

1606
04:19:11.840 --> 04:19:19.559
compared to the rest of your legs, especially your thighs. Yeah,

1607
04:19:19.639 --> 04:19:29.600
they're so strong, so flexible, absolutely amazing things.

1608
04:19:30.879 --> 04:19:32.399
Your ankles are.

1609
04:19:36.079 --> 04:19:41.159
Truly a gift because of what they do for you,

1610
04:19:46.639 --> 04:19:53.600
supporting all that weight, regardless of how what weight you are,

1611
04:19:54.799 --> 04:19:59.559
even if you're only ate stone, there's still a lot

1612
04:19:59.600 --> 04:20:06.280
of weight for these little ankles now, I'm a lot

1613
04:20:06.520 --> 04:20:16.440
heavier than eight stone double down, yet my ankles support

1614
04:20:16.520 --> 04:20:23.920
my body all the time, or they do give off

1615
04:20:23.920 --> 04:20:29.479
a sigh of relief when I sit down. I've got

1616
04:20:29.520 --> 04:20:38.559
my whole legs do my feet feet also go, my

1617
04:20:38.680 --> 04:21:06.200
toes clap, We're so happy. Your legs really are amazing.

1618
04:21:08.840 --> 04:21:12.479
And I know that talking about talking about your legs

1619
04:21:12.639 --> 04:21:19.239
is probably possibly among the most most boring things you've

1620
04:21:19.280 --> 04:21:28.280
ever heard anyone say. Possibly you're boring or not. Everything

1621
04:21:28.360 --> 04:21:43.799
I said is true. Your legs are amazing. Your legs

1622
04:21:43.959 --> 04:22:03.479
deserve not just respect, they deserve to relax deeply. They

1623
04:22:03.639 --> 04:22:08.959
deserve to take some time out of the day to

1624
04:22:09.159 --> 04:22:45.319
just let go completely. The legs really can relax. And

1625
04:22:45.440 --> 04:22:49.399
because the legs are so such a most, you know,

1626
04:22:49.639 --> 04:22:55.559
very important part of your body. And you relax your legs,

1627
04:22:55.680 --> 04:23:02.879
the rest of your body also naturally follows in that

1628
04:23:06.639 --> 04:23:17.440
journey of comfort. I can feel it in my hips.

1629
04:23:18.879 --> 04:23:25.959
My hips feel really loose, and also my lower back

1630
04:23:26.040 --> 04:23:32.639
as well. My lower back really feels it feels stretched,

1631
04:23:33.760 --> 04:23:36.799
even though I'm just sitting in a chair and there's

1632
04:23:36.920 --> 04:23:42.159
no stretching as far as I'm aware that I'm doing.

1633
04:23:43.120 --> 04:23:45.719
But it's almost as if the muscles are just relaxed

1634
04:23:45.799 --> 04:23:51.360
so much that there is a natural stretch as the

1635
04:23:51.559 --> 04:24:13.799
tension has reduced a lot. And I'm now going to

1636
04:24:13.879 --> 04:24:21.319
count down from ten down to one, and you can

1637
04:24:21.440 --> 04:24:47.079
continue to fill wonderfully relaxed ten nine, eight, seven, six.

1638
04:24:49.920 --> 04:24:50.479
Five.

1639
04:24:54.840 --> 04:25:22.920
Four three tube. Why relaxed? So I'm just going to

1640
04:25:23.000 --> 04:25:28.360
count down and fire down to one. And as a countdown,

1641
04:25:29.680 --> 04:25:34.399
if you just focus on the numbers, just the numbers

1642
04:25:36.079 --> 04:25:41.920
counting down, and notice how you feel.

1643
04:25:44.200 --> 04:25:45.399
In this moment.

1644
04:25:46.799 --> 04:25:51.200
As you hear the numbers counting down, knowing that those

1645
04:25:51.360 --> 04:26:04.440
numbers counting down represent you feeling calmer, not just in

1646
04:26:04.520 --> 04:26:12.879
your body, but also relaxing your mind. I just notice

1647
04:26:12.920 --> 04:26:18.959
how you feel. There's nothing to do, there's nothing to say,

1648
04:26:19.639 --> 04:26:36.680
there's nothing to think about, starting with number five, four

1649
04:26:46.200 --> 04:27:21.959
three two one. And as you notice the gradual letting

1650
04:27:22.079 --> 04:27:30.559
go that the tension in your body, you may also

1651
04:27:31.159 --> 04:27:36.639
begin to notice and be aware of how your mind

1652
04:27:37.719 --> 04:27:45.639
is starting to slow down. This is just a natural

1653
04:27:46.479 --> 04:27:54.399
thing that happens. It's not really a special procedure. It's

1654
04:27:54.520 --> 04:27:59.799
just natural because as your body relaxes, your mind also

1655
04:28:00.600 --> 04:28:05.440
starts to relax. And the more your mind relaxes. The

1656
04:28:05.559 --> 04:28:11.000
more your body relaxes. It's just a continuous circle of relaxation,

1657
04:28:17.040 --> 04:28:25.559
and there's that calmness that comes from relative quietness. You know,

1658
04:28:25.719 --> 04:28:31.319
even even if there's background sounds either your side, online,

1659
04:28:33.040 --> 04:28:38.959
it's still going to be quite calm. You know, you

1660
04:28:39.040 --> 04:28:43.719
haven't got the television on, there's no music in the

1661
04:28:43.760 --> 04:28:46.959
background unless you're listening to the recording. With music, of course,

1662
04:28:51.879 --> 04:28:54.040
you're very likely not going to be sitting in a

1663
04:28:54.159 --> 04:28:57.280
room with other people. Of course you might be, but

1664
04:28:58.559 --> 04:29:01.799
generally it's more ideal if you can do this on

1665
04:29:01.920 --> 04:29:13.239
your own, so no distractions, and when you stop thinking

1666
04:29:13.319 --> 04:29:30.479
about stuff, relaxation automatically rises. A sense of comfort starts

1667
04:29:30.559 --> 04:29:39.319
to grow, and without trying to build it up into

1668
04:29:39.399 --> 04:29:51.520
something fantastical or something magical, this is just a natural process,

1669
04:29:53.879 --> 04:30:04.559
something that's easy to accomplish. In fact, it's almost you know,

1670
04:30:04.719 --> 04:30:11.559
the sense of relaxing completely happens really when you put

1671
04:30:11.719 --> 04:30:15.600
no effort into it. It's not something that you can

1672
04:30:15.719 --> 04:30:27.319
really force. It's something that happens naturally. And part of

1673
04:30:27.760 --> 04:30:37.959
the process of this recording and others is simply two

1674
04:30:39.559 --> 04:30:49.920
allow you to take advantage of this space. This time,

1675
04:30:52.840 --> 04:31:03.840
it's just let go, to just be here, to be

1676
04:31:04.479 --> 04:31:17.879
in tune with how you feel, yet with the intention

1677
04:31:20.159 --> 04:31:31.600
of wanting to relax deeply and maybe even to fall asleep,

1678
04:31:32.760 --> 04:31:37.920
depending on what it is that you wish for yourself

1679
04:31:39.719 --> 04:31:54.760
in this moment. As we know, relaxing is the majority

1680
04:31:56.000 --> 04:32:00.079
of the process of falling asleep. The actual fall a

1681
04:32:00.159 --> 04:32:06.799
sleep part is a tiny bit at the end. The

1682
04:32:06.959 --> 04:32:21.440
deeper relaxed you become, the easier you find yourself drifting.

1683
04:32:31.040 --> 04:32:37.639
You can also, if you choose stay focused on my

1684
04:32:37.840 --> 04:33:06.759
voice and really enjoy the process, gradually relaxing each muscle

1685
04:33:11.360 --> 04:33:38.200
in your body effortlessly and just observing the sensation of

1686
04:33:38.479 --> 04:33:54.639
letting go completely. This time on an account from six

1687
04:33:55.680 --> 04:34:07.720
down to one, and you can notice your mind calming

1688
04:34:08.040 --> 04:34:20.520
down more with each number that you hear me say, naturally,

1689
04:34:21.639 --> 04:34:31.279
feeling calm and slow and be peaceful.

1690
04:34:36.680 --> 04:37:24.880
Sex five, four, three, hut.

1691
04:37:02.919 --> 04:37:31.319
What being aware how your mind to slow.

1692
04:37:33.159 --> 04:37:59.560
Right down, sinking deeply into relaxation. And as you focus

1693
04:37:59.680 --> 04:38:08.000
on your mind, you may notice that there are some

1694
04:38:08.959 --> 04:38:18.279
thoughts still there, maybe some stubborn thoughts that for some

1695
04:38:18.599 --> 04:38:23.599
reason perhaps need your attention.

1696
04:38:30.520 --> 04:38:31.919
That's what you can do is.

1697
04:38:37.439 --> 04:38:49.919
Send love to those thoughts. Sprinkle those thoughts with love.

1698
04:38:51.639 --> 04:38:55.880
I all petals from a flower. Just sprinkle it over them,

1699
04:38:57.319 --> 04:39:04.479
petals filled with love towards those thoughts to let those

1700
04:39:04.720 --> 04:39:09.479
thoughts know that it's a lot of bandon a number.

1701
04:39:10.799 --> 04:39:18.560
You just need them to require them to just calm down,

1702
04:39:20.880 --> 04:39:38.279
slow down, quiet down for now, so as you focus

1703
04:39:38.400 --> 04:39:43.680
on those remaining thoughts. As we count down this time

1704
04:39:43.799 --> 04:39:52.240
from seven down to one. With each number, just imagine

1705
04:39:52.360 --> 04:40:08.479
sprinkling those flower petals of love, kindness, gratitude over those thoughts,

1706
04:40:13.599 --> 04:40:19.759
which will allow them to just not away and relax deeply.

1707
04:40:23.959 --> 04:40:38.400
The very number, those thoughts will become more and more relaxed.

1708
04:40:44.000 --> 04:42:58.400
Starting with number seven, six, five, four three one.

1709
04:43:15.360 --> 04:43:16.159
Lets you now.

1710
04:43:20.319 --> 04:43:41.520
Notice how relaxed you're feeling in your body. We're going

1711
04:43:41.639 --> 04:43:43.119
to focus.

1712
04:43:46.520 --> 04:43:47.520
On your hands.

1713
04:43:53.720 --> 04:43:59.680
Is the more relaxed your hands are, the more relaxed

1714
04:44:00.159 --> 04:44:02.119
body and mind.

1715
04:44:17.360 --> 04:44:17.959
And there's.

1716
04:44:19.479 --> 04:44:29.599
You focus on your hands and your fingers. There's nothing

1717
04:44:30.159 --> 04:44:34.880
needed to be done. There's no clenching of fists or

1718
04:44:35.959 --> 04:44:37.799
dancing the fingers.

1719
04:44:37.520 --> 04:44:38.279
Or anything like that.

1720
04:44:39.520 --> 04:44:41.200
Mm hm m hmm.

1721
04:44:45.759 --> 04:44:59.680
It's just noticing and focusing on your hands, noticing the

1722
04:44:59.799 --> 04:45:21.200
hands they feel, the kiss the more relaks your hands feel,

1723
04:45:24.720 --> 04:45:26.759
the calmly your mind.

1724
04:45:26.799 --> 04:45:30.680
Feels, and the moral.

1725
04:45:33.080 --> 04:45:34.720
Comforts you feel.

1726
04:45:36.720 --> 04:45:57.720
Around your body. And gee may have already I ticed.

1727
04:46:01.639 --> 04:46:14.279
You mind is starting.

1728
04:46:17.240 --> 04:46:18.400
To dress.

1729
04:46:31.799 --> 04:46:32.240
Like s.

1730
04:46:36.479 --> 04:46:45.919
Just on your hands and fingers, allowing.

1731
04:46:45.880 --> 04:46:47.880
Them cheap.

1732
04:46:49.639 --> 04:46:59.520
Experience, a real deepening of that relaxation.

1733
04:47:00.240 --> 04:47:19.560
In your hands and fingers, more and more relaxed. Each number.

1734
04:47:27.080 --> 04:47:27.919
From eight.

1735
04:47:30.240 --> 04:47:36.560
Down to one, you can.

1736
04:47:36.520 --> 04:47:47.720
Almost feel that heating and relaxing energy spreading into your

1737
04:47:47.919 --> 04:48:08.080
hands and fingers becoming ye onlesing with each number.

1738
04:48:14.680 --> 04:48:25.159
Coming down eight down to one, to rift in.

1739
04:48:28.759 --> 04:48:35.840
To rifting again. Starting with.

1740
04:48:40.439 --> 04:52:35.880
Number eight, Asa, just be.

1741
04:52:36.439 --> 04:52:46.759
Here now, nothing to think about, nothing to do, nothing

1742
04:52:46.880 --> 04:52:47.319
to say.

1743
04:52:51.840 --> 04:52:53.599
Everything just feels.

1744
04:53:00.319 --> 04:53:08.040
This is your natural spec to being. This is how

1745
04:53:08.200 --> 04:53:11.799
you just normally when.

1746
04:53:12.159 --> 04:53:52.360
You're taken away, Not stuff that streights of worry, siena.

1747
04:53:42.040 --> 04:53:46.000
That no.

1748
04:53:56.279 --> 04:54:09.959
Real sense which comes to very quickly. This is as

1749
04:54:10.000 --> 04:54:42.200
