00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:09.519
Hello, and welcome to Jasonnewland dot com. Well, my name

2
00:00:09.599 --> 00:00:14.519
is Jason. What that was? Oh itchy, bue, My name's

3
00:00:14.640 --> 00:00:19.760
Jason Newland. Police. Only listen to this when you can

4
00:00:19.960 --> 00:00:28.480
safely close your eyes. And today is Trivia Tuesday. Oh yeah,

5
00:00:28.600 --> 00:00:33.200
it's the nineteenth of August two thousand and twenty five.

6
00:00:35.439 --> 00:00:40.799
I have already made a recording today, but that was

7
00:00:40.960 --> 00:00:47.679
just a really itchy. The problem with having Vinnie cuddled

8
00:00:47.759 --> 00:00:51.000
up to me on the sofa here is when I

9
00:00:51.039 --> 00:00:55.880
start scratching myself, you know, I get itchy. Sometimes he

10
00:00:55.920 --> 00:00:58.479
doesn't like it and he jumps off and he growls

11
00:00:58.520 --> 00:01:03.960
at me because I just disturbed in So there you go.

12
00:01:05.680 --> 00:01:09.719
And so before we go any further, I'm just going

13
00:01:09.719 --> 00:01:13.359
to quickly I realize I can actually use my phone

14
00:01:14.120 --> 00:01:17.319
while I'm using it, while I'm using it to record.

15
00:01:18.319 --> 00:01:31.760
So today's Trivia Tuesday question or subject comes from Anne.

16
00:01:32.439 --> 00:01:37.680
Hello Anne, Everyone say hello Anne. Altogether, one, two, three,

17
00:01:38.159 --> 00:01:46.040
Hello Anne. Thank you for the recommendation. So if you

18
00:01:46.239 --> 00:01:50.879
have an idea of what you would like me to

19
00:01:50.920 --> 00:01:56.920
talk about next week's Trivia Tuesday or future Trivia Tuesdays,

20
00:02:00.079 --> 00:02:05.480
maybe just send me a message on my website. Yeah,

21
00:02:06.040 --> 00:02:09.360
there's a contact form on my website. Just just let

22
00:02:09.360 --> 00:02:11.919
me know what then you know what you're asking for.

23
00:02:14.039 --> 00:02:18.159
I know, I I'm not necessarily going to do the recording,

24
00:02:18.520 --> 00:02:21.599
you know. I mean today I'm doing one and I'm thinking,

25
00:02:21.719 --> 00:02:23.719
I don't know if I should do this subject because

26
00:02:23.759 --> 00:02:26.960
it's not m I don't know, but I'm going to

27
00:02:27.039 --> 00:02:31.080
do I'm going to do it anyway. It's about medical stuff,

28
00:02:31.159 --> 00:02:36.800
and yeah, I feel I'm not going to do it

29
00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:38.759
because I'm just thinking it's probably not a good thing

30
00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:44.159
to go to sleep with. Ye all right, That's what

31
00:02:44.159 --> 00:02:48.479
I'm going to do, is I've changed my mind. I'm

32
00:02:48.479 --> 00:02:52.199
going to I'm going to basically, Anne gave me a choice.

33
00:02:54.719 --> 00:03:05.719
I've changed my mind. Now I'm going to focus on

34
00:03:05.840 --> 00:03:15.000
Teddy Bears. So I'm going to do look through trivia

35
00:03:15.120 --> 00:03:19.919
facts about Teddy Bears. So, yeah, it's going to be

36
00:03:20.159 --> 00:03:28.800
on dental and medical unusual medical and dental instruments. But

37
00:03:28.879 --> 00:03:34.120
after looking through the list, it's I don't know, it's

38
00:03:34.159 --> 00:03:40.800
none of it's particularly ear friendly as it were, I

39
00:03:40.800 --> 00:03:46.080
don't think i'd want to really hear that stuff, especially

40
00:03:46.120 --> 00:03:48.039
the oh the dental stuff.

41
00:03:48.120 --> 00:03:52.800
Oh no, no thanks. So I'm going to do Teddy Bears.

42
00:03:54.039 --> 00:03:58.599
If you go down do do with dody Ah.

43
00:03:58.759 --> 00:04:03.560
That song is in my mind because when I was

44
00:04:03.599 --> 00:04:07.479
about nine, I was on the Rolf Harris Show and

45
00:04:07.479 --> 00:04:14.159
my whole score was and it's on YouTube actually that

46
00:04:14.199 --> 00:04:18.800
particular episode. If you want the link, I can send

47
00:04:18.800 --> 00:04:23.279
it to you, and I'm on it. I'm on it.

48
00:04:23.399 --> 00:04:28.759
But I'm like, let's say a little kid, and one

49
00:04:28.800 --> 00:04:31.759
of the songs was you know if you go down

50
00:04:31.800 --> 00:04:34.720
to the woods today, you sure have a big surprise.

51
00:04:35.439 --> 00:04:37.959
If you go down to the woods today, you better

52
00:04:38.040 --> 00:04:41.199
go in disguise. For every bed that ever there was

53
00:04:41.319 --> 00:04:45.639
or children today to day, the deady bears have the pigicnic.

54
00:04:46.720 --> 00:04:49.439
And then there was I've got a lovely bunch of

55
00:04:49.519 --> 00:04:54.439
coconuts there they are only now. And then there was

56
00:04:54.480 --> 00:05:01.480
another one Mad Mad gloryus maud. There's nothing quite like

57
00:05:01.600 --> 00:05:05.720
it for cooling the blood. So follow me, follow down

58
00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:10.000
to the hollow and they let us want inglorious Smart.

59
00:05:13.879 --> 00:05:17.680
They are the three songs that I remember from that

60
00:05:17.920 --> 00:05:27.959
particular television episode which I partiqued. So yeah, I did

61
00:05:28.000 --> 00:05:31.959
it recording this morning. I woke up quite early, had

62
00:05:32.000 --> 00:05:33.639
an early night. I could already do.

63
00:05:35.120 --> 00:05:35.160
It.

64
00:05:38.959 --> 00:05:46.560
I was connecked last night after going out and during

65
00:05:46.600 --> 00:05:48.759
the day. If you want to know what I go

66
00:05:48.920 --> 00:05:52.759
up to yesterday, just check out my early recording. I

67
00:05:52.879 --> 00:05:56.399
think I called it I had to go out something

68
00:05:56.480 --> 00:06:02.000
like that. I had to go outside. So you know,

69
00:06:02.120 --> 00:06:06.199
that's all the update of what happened yesterday today so far,

70
00:06:06.600 --> 00:06:10.959
other than making and recording all the editing and processing

71
00:06:11.199 --> 00:06:16.600
and uploading, I haven't really done a lot. I've been

72
00:06:16.680 --> 00:06:19.160
asleep a lot of the day. I didn't feel very

73
00:06:19.199 --> 00:06:23.600
well earlier. I feel much better now. I don't know.

74
00:06:23.639 --> 00:06:25.560
I think it's just pretty a bit of stress in that.

75
00:06:27.040 --> 00:06:31.439
But it's now four minutes to four pm in the afternoon,

76
00:06:32.959 --> 00:06:43.000
and I've taken Vinnie out twice today so far, and

77
00:06:43.120 --> 00:06:47.120
I have to do my forms for the PIP the

78
00:06:47.319 --> 00:06:51.560
PIP form. I have to do that at some point tomorrow.

79
00:06:51.639 --> 00:06:57.519
I think once that's done, I can kind of relax

80
00:06:57.600 --> 00:07:08.600
a little bit. It's then, Yeah, nothing else really is

81
00:07:08.680 --> 00:07:14.879
going on, which is good. I've just I tell you

82
00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:21.759
one thing. It's it confuses me a little bit. Okay.

83
00:07:22.879 --> 00:07:26.319
So I've been doing this let Me Boy to Sleep

84
00:07:26.399 --> 00:07:33.759
podcast since two thousand and eighteen. So was that nineteen

85
00:07:33.839 --> 00:07:40.000
twenty four, twenty five, so seven over seven years. I

86
00:07:40.079 --> 00:07:43.480
think I started in March, so over seven years I've

87
00:07:43.519 --> 00:07:46.920
been doing these. So let me boy to sleep recordings.

88
00:07:48.480 --> 00:07:55.079
And I'm up to the last record. Oh no, it

89
00:07:55.240 --> 00:08:00.120
wasn't I'd have to go outside. The last record I

90
00:08:00.199 --> 00:08:04.800
did this morning was mental health review. Don't worry. It's

91
00:08:04.800 --> 00:08:08.560
not quite as serious as it sounds. Not is No,

92
00:08:08.759 --> 00:08:21.720
not that's serious. No o okay, but that was number Mbytyes.

93
00:08:22.000 --> 00:08:25.360
I'll let me probably sleep number one thousand and four

94
00:08:25.519 --> 00:08:30.079
hundred and fourteen. So this is number one thousand, four

95
00:08:30.199 --> 00:08:37.039
hundred and fifteen, and probably about half an hour ago,

96
00:08:37.200 --> 00:08:40.679
maybe twenty minutes ago, maybe even eighteen minutes ago, I

97
00:08:40.840 --> 00:08:48.559
was online just looking for the best boring sleep recordings,

98
00:08:50.399 --> 00:08:56.919
and I'm pretty much nowhere to be seen, and I

99
00:08:57.120 --> 00:09:02.159
just I'm kind of I'm not sure why. I mean,

100
00:09:02.240 --> 00:09:04.200
I'm not saying that I should be in the list

101
00:09:04.279 --> 00:09:07.279
of the best, but I thought i'd be in at

102
00:09:07.360 --> 00:09:10.799
least a top fifty if there was a list of

103
00:09:10.919 --> 00:09:20.159
fifty sleep podcast or fifty boring podcasts. I don't know.

104
00:09:20.320 --> 00:09:23.720
I I thought i'd be in the top fifty. Is

105
00:09:24.200 --> 00:09:25.240
that egotistic?

106
00:09:25.600 --> 00:09:26.159
I don't know.

107
00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:31.120
See, I wouldn't be surprised, right, it wouldn't. It wouldn't

108
00:09:31.120 --> 00:09:34.159
surprise me if I was in no lists like that,

109
00:09:38.000 --> 00:09:43.200
if nobody listened to my podcasts. But the fact is

110
00:09:44.320 --> 00:09:52.559
people do listen to my podcast every single day. So

111
00:09:52.919 --> 00:10:02.039
I'm like, okay, I'm confused. These are not statistics like

112
00:10:02.240 --> 00:10:07.240
the the top fifty. This is just websites that have

113
00:10:07.320 --> 00:10:10.799
put down what they think of the top podcasts for

114
00:10:10.919 --> 00:10:19.080
going to sleep too or for being bored, and I

115
00:10:19.240 --> 00:10:27.399
just I don't It's like, oh, I don't. I just

116
00:10:27.480 --> 00:10:30.320
don't know. I mean, I'm wondering those all the ones

117
00:10:30.399 --> 00:10:33.240
that were listed are they Are they getting as many

118
00:10:33.360 --> 00:10:38.559
views as me? Or are they getting loads? Because according

119
00:10:38.720 --> 00:10:43.200
to when I go into my stats, and I don't worry,

120
00:10:43.240 --> 00:10:45.320
I'm not going to go into the stats, You're safe.

121
00:10:46.759 --> 00:10:48.919
But when I look into it, how many I'm getting,

122
00:10:51.399 --> 00:10:54.320
I'm in the top five percent of all podcasts in

123
00:10:54.399 --> 00:11:03.480
the world statistically wise as far as listeners. So I

124
00:11:03.600 --> 00:11:07.840
was just like, why, whoa why is It's like, no

125
00:11:07.960 --> 00:11:12.600
one knows about me yet people are listening. I don't understand.

126
00:11:15.240 --> 00:11:21.000
I mean on my oh okay, excuse me, on my

127
00:11:23.600 --> 00:11:29.039
dashboard for all my podcasts on Spreaker since twenty eighteen,

128
00:11:30.559 --> 00:11:33.039
bearing in mind I've had other podcasts as well during

129
00:11:33.080 --> 00:11:36.759
that time. But I've got a total downloads here of

130
00:11:36.919 --> 00:11:41.159
fifteen million, two hundred ninety six thousand, six hundred and four,

131
00:11:43.039 --> 00:11:46.799
fifteen million, two hundred ninety six thousand, six hundred and

132
00:11:46.840 --> 00:11:51.440
four with forty two total live plays. They don't do

133
00:11:51.600 --> 00:12:04.960
live plays anymore for some reason. And I'm just confessed used, confused, confused, confused.

134
00:12:07.080 --> 00:12:12.559
So yeah, I don't know. I just want to I

135
00:12:12.720 --> 00:12:17.360
just want to know what, what's what? If you know

136
00:12:17.399 --> 00:12:21.919
what I mean? That's why? What a my? What am

137
00:12:21.919 --> 00:12:28.279
I doing wrong? I mean, so far on Spreaker, I've

138
00:12:28.279 --> 00:12:32.480
had two hundred and seventy five thousand and seventy two downloads.

139
00:12:35.919 --> 00:12:41.840
That's on Spreaker. Spotify is a different, different thing altogether,

140
00:12:42.039 --> 00:12:54.799
So you can add on another five thirty, fifteen, fifteen

141
00:12:54.879 --> 00:12:58.480
to twenty thousand a month added on to that with

142
00:12:59.159 --> 00:13:06.480
Spotify in fact, since last year, I think, not Spotify

143
00:13:06.679 --> 00:13:14.519
shop SoundCloud. That's what I meant SoundCloud. So if I

144
00:13:14.600 --> 00:13:18.759
going to one of the soundclouds, so which one comes up?

145
00:13:19.600 --> 00:13:22.200
This is? Yeah, this is the main one I got

146
00:13:22.279 --> 00:13:28.919
to I got the two different podcasts. I've got Hypnosis

147
00:13:29.000 --> 00:13:32.240
A Sleeping Deeply, and there's the let Me Boy to

148
00:13:32.320 --> 00:13:37.279
Sleep one. So today, so far I've had one hundred

149
00:13:37.279 --> 00:13:43.720
and sixty three plays for the month five, five hundred

150
00:13:43.720 --> 00:13:48.399
and ninety nine and then the other one, so you know,

151
00:13:48.519 --> 00:13:52.039
mix them together. But if I look for the last

152
00:13:52.120 --> 00:13:59.960
twelve months, it's actually not ty. It's not told since September.

153
00:14:01.159 --> 00:14:05.159
Since last September, which was one, two, three, four, five, six, seven,

154
00:14:05.200 --> 00:14:09.919
eight nine, ten. Well, yeah, it's literally this twelve months

155
00:14:10.000 --> 00:14:13.360
isn't now August. So the last twelve months I had

156
00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:18.039
four hundred and fifty one thousand, nine hundred and forty

157
00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:23.840
plays on Soundclouds. I've actually had a lot more there

158
00:14:24.399 --> 00:14:29.279
than I have on Speaker, but then I spent quite

159
00:14:29.279 --> 00:14:33.799
a lot of time on SoundCloud. On SoundCloud, so I

160
00:14:33.919 --> 00:14:36.840
kind of I didn't use Speaker much for a while,

161
00:14:39.080 --> 00:14:44.799
but for all time, because I also had some time

162
00:14:45.000 --> 00:14:49.799
two thousand and forty twenty four twenty twenty three all

163
00:14:49.960 --> 00:14:54.879
time two million, five hundred and seven thousand, four hundred

164
00:14:54.919 --> 00:14:59.919
and seventy eight that's on that one podcast, so probably

165
00:15:00.080 --> 00:15:02.759
that another million and a half. Haven't let me boiled asleep.

166
00:15:04.840 --> 00:15:10.919
And the question, maybe from you, is didn't you just

167
00:15:11.000 --> 00:15:14.840
say you weren't going to talk about the stats? Do

168
00:15:15.000 --> 00:15:17.399
you just tell us we were safe from hearing about

169
00:15:17.440 --> 00:15:24.360
the statistics? I did. I do apologize. I'm not sorry,

170
00:15:24.480 --> 00:15:30.320
but I do apologize, you know. I mean, I don't care,

171
00:15:30.440 --> 00:15:36.240
but I'm just apologize. It's nothing to be worried about.

172
00:15:39.000 --> 00:15:44.679
Have I never talked about teddy bears before? Should I

173
00:15:44.720 --> 00:15:48.759
give you a story about my teddy bear? I had

174
00:15:48.799 --> 00:15:53.519
a teddy bear when I was about eight seven eight

175
00:15:53.639 --> 00:15:58.080
years old. I know, definitely at eight because when I

176
00:15:58.159 --> 00:16:01.279
was eight years old, I went to have when I

177
00:16:01.399 --> 00:16:06.000
was in hospital having my adenoids removed, which is probably

178
00:16:06.039 --> 00:16:10.759
why I got such a wonderful calm voice. I like

179
00:16:10.919 --> 00:16:15.799
that it might know. So, yeah, that's if I still

180
00:16:15.879 --> 00:16:20.000
have my adnoids, I probably would be very very bunged

181
00:16:20.120 --> 00:16:25.679
up sounding. But that's not the reason they were removed.

182
00:16:25.720 --> 00:16:29.240
It is because I was deaf in one ear or

183
00:16:29.320 --> 00:16:37.720
partially deaf in one ear. So I had my teddy

184
00:16:37.759 --> 00:16:46.600
bear with me and he was my best friend, and

185
00:16:46.919 --> 00:16:49.879
I felt safe when I cuddled him and I slept

186
00:16:49.960 --> 00:16:56.000
with him in bed. I might get myself a teddy

187
00:16:56.000 --> 00:17:01.080
bear just someone to cut because Viny don want to

188
00:17:01.120 --> 00:17:04.319
cuddle me. He cuddles up to me, but he doesn't

189
00:17:04.359 --> 00:17:08.039
want me like put my arm around him and like

190
00:17:08.480 --> 00:17:12.359
hugging him. Doesn't like that, but he will like cuddle

191
00:17:12.480 --> 00:17:14.079
up to me and I can put my arm on it.

192
00:17:14.200 --> 00:17:16.319
Like now, I put my arm on him and I

193
00:17:16.400 --> 00:17:19.599
can't stroke him, and he's fine with that. In bed

194
00:17:19.759 --> 00:17:27.000
not so much. You know, it's he tried to explain

195
00:17:27.079 --> 00:17:29.039
it to me the other day. He said, well, when

196
00:17:29.079 --> 00:17:31.720
we're up and you know, i'm sun sety, I'm not

197
00:17:31.920 --> 00:17:34.920
really sleeping. I'm just chilling out. But when I come

198
00:17:34.960 --> 00:17:38.359
to bed, I come to sleep, not to be fondled

199
00:17:38.440 --> 00:17:42.839
by you. And I said, Vinnie, the word fondled is

200
00:17:42.960 --> 00:17:48.839
not the correct word in this situation. He said, why not? Said,

201
00:17:49.000 --> 00:17:54.039
I'm not going to go into it, but it's just cuddling. You're,

202
00:17:54.319 --> 00:17:57.240
you know, my my little puppy. He said, I'm a

203
00:17:57.319 --> 00:18:00.839
big boy now, I'm not a puppy. I said, this

204
00:18:01.119 --> 00:18:04.920
is still the same size as a puppy. And that's

205
00:18:04.960 --> 00:18:06.599
when he just jumped off the bed, gave me a

206
00:18:06.759 --> 00:18:10.559
very very dirty look, and run out, just showering. You're

207
00:18:10.640 --> 00:18:13.519
not my real dad. He does it every now and

208
00:18:13.599 --> 00:18:19.319
then that ten minutes later is like jumps on the bed,

209
00:18:20.160 --> 00:18:22.279
prodded me. I said, what, Finn, He said, can I

210
00:18:22.279 --> 00:18:22.720
have a treat?

211
00:18:23.640 --> 00:18:24.000
It's like.

212
00:18:26.119 --> 00:18:27.519
I had to get out of bed to give him

213
00:18:27.519 --> 00:18:36.440
a treat rewarding his bad behavior. That's why he never learns,

214
00:18:37.839 --> 00:18:44.720
never learns. It's not that I think I should be,

215
00:18:45.119 --> 00:18:51.279
you know, in the top category of any I do

216
00:18:51.480 --> 00:18:54.880
sometimes in the statistics, come up quite high in the

217
00:18:55.000 --> 00:18:59.440
rankings of different categories and have done over the last

218
00:18:59.559 --> 00:19:04.799
you know, twenty years, nineteen years at different times, especially

219
00:19:05.240 --> 00:19:09.440
like two thousand kind of period two thousand and one.

220
00:19:11.039 --> 00:19:17.039
But it's it just be nice. I don't know why websites,

221
00:19:17.319 --> 00:19:20.480
it's what they and they just put these little lists together,

222
00:19:20.519 --> 00:19:23.920
and quite often they just put the same podcasts in

223
00:19:24.039 --> 00:19:29.720
the same list, and I don't know. It's like, am

224
00:19:29.759 --> 00:19:30.559
I invisible?

225
00:19:31.319 --> 00:19:31.519
Am?

226
00:19:31.559 --> 00:19:34.480
I know I'm invisible to women now, but I didn't.

227
00:19:34.599 --> 00:19:37.799
Why do I got be invisible to the internet. It's

228
00:19:37.960 --> 00:19:46.519
not fair. So yeah, I think what happened to my

229
00:19:46.640 --> 00:19:50.400
teddy bear is he was put in a washing machine

230
00:19:52.039 --> 00:19:54.759
to get washed, which I didn't. I wasn't particularly pleased

231
00:19:54.759 --> 00:20:00.279
with but the washing machine ruined him. I don't mean

232
00:20:00.400 --> 00:20:06.119
as in, you know, he didn't want to spend time

233
00:20:06.160 --> 00:20:07.880
with me anymore. He's wanted to stay with a washing

234
00:20:07.960 --> 00:20:10.519
machine because he had so much fun. I didn't mean

235
00:20:10.640 --> 00:20:18.240
ruined him in that way, but he was, Yeah, it

236
00:20:18.319 --> 00:20:20.480
didn't do I mean, it's not going to do it.

237
00:20:20.720 --> 00:20:22.799
You don't put a little Teddy Bear in a washing machine.

238
00:20:22.799 --> 00:20:27.319
Come on, it's ridiculous completely. It would have been a

239
00:20:27.359 --> 00:20:33.000
horrible for him. And so yeah, and I said, it

240
00:20:33.039 --> 00:20:39.880
doesn't matter. I'm a big boy now I can. I'll

241
00:20:39.920 --> 00:20:46.880
be all right. I'll be all right. And sat went

242
00:20:47.000 --> 00:20:49.960
upstairs to my room and a bit of a cry.

243
00:20:53.440 --> 00:20:58.119
Then I looked at the time, realized I was late

244
00:20:58.200 --> 00:21:04.440
for work. Teddy I didn't have any other Teddy I

245
00:21:04.519 --> 00:21:06.880
was the only Teddy Bear I ever had. I do

246
00:21:07.200 --> 00:21:09.599
believe I didn't have any Teddy Bears when I was

247
00:21:09.720 --> 00:21:15.440
little that I remember. I might well have added Teddy

248
00:21:15.440 --> 00:21:19.200
Bear when I was one. Two, I don't know, three

249
00:21:19.319 --> 00:21:25.599
even I don't know, but I don't remember them. So

250
00:21:28.440 --> 00:21:35.559
here's some I've got a hundred trivia facts about Teddy

251
00:21:35.599 --> 00:21:41.759
Bears thanks to Anne. Come on, everyone altogether, one, two, three,

252
00:21:42.400 --> 00:21:48.359
Thank you Anne for your trivia suggestion for Teddy Bears.

253
00:21:49.000 --> 00:21:59.799
Come on, thank you. He's not playing along today, are you? So?

254
00:22:00.680 --> 00:22:07.720
I didn't do Monday's Boring Objects yesterday. I apologize. I'm

255
00:22:07.759 --> 00:22:12.119
not sorry, but I do apologize. I was intending to

256
00:22:12.240 --> 00:22:18.599
do it, but I was so tired, and I kind

257
00:22:18.640 --> 00:22:26.240
of feel a little bit that the route tee that

258
00:22:26.400 --> 00:22:31.359
I have been kind of organizing over the last year

259
00:22:31.559 --> 00:22:35.799
or so, the routine of doing Q and a Friday,

260
00:22:36.119 --> 00:22:39.519
which I didn't do on this Friday, just gone because

261
00:22:39.519 --> 00:22:44.880
I only had one question. Oh great. Never got someone

262
00:22:44.920 --> 00:22:49.599
in a motor or a motorbike outside. I hope he's

263
00:22:49.640 --> 00:22:51.480
not going to do that thing where he just keeps

264
00:22:51.519 --> 00:22:57.319
the motorbike going for like three hours while he, I

265
00:22:57.359 --> 00:23:00.400
don't know, just admires the saddle, maybe snaw melts it.

266
00:23:00.440 --> 00:23:02.160
I don't know. I don't know what he does dout

267
00:23:02.200 --> 00:23:06.359
there three house sniff in his saddle, I don't know

268
00:23:06.480 --> 00:23:11.880
if that's I'm sure he doesn't do that, but I'm

269
00:23:11.920 --> 00:23:14.079
not going to let it stop me from doing a recording.

270
00:23:18.480 --> 00:23:21.079
Well though, yesterday there was someone riding up and down

271
00:23:21.119 --> 00:23:27.160
the road really fast, really loud, on a motorbike like

272
00:23:27.279 --> 00:23:29.640
about twenty times, up and down, up and down, up

273
00:23:29.640 --> 00:23:34.599
and down. And the kids around here that, let's face it,

274
00:23:34.720 --> 00:23:38.039
they don't look when they cross the road. I mean

275
00:23:38.359 --> 00:23:43.200
I probably didn't either, and this bike's going so fast.

276
00:23:45.839 --> 00:23:49.640
Some kind of I think I saw the same person today.

277
00:23:49.839 --> 00:23:51.519
Because I didn't see them, I could just hear them

278
00:23:51.559 --> 00:23:57.839
from here. It's very loud, it's very like ra like that.

279
00:24:00.319 --> 00:24:05.519
And I heard what sounded like the same motorbike. So

280
00:24:05.640 --> 00:24:07.559
I waited and I just wait, you know, for what

281
00:24:07.599 --> 00:24:10.680
I'd watch to see if it was And it was

282
00:24:10.880 --> 00:24:13.599
revving up and it came past, and I just watched

283
00:24:13.640 --> 00:24:17.519
it go past. I didn't recognize the person because you know,

284
00:24:17.559 --> 00:24:19.519
it's pretty much covered up other than just a little

285
00:24:19.519 --> 00:24:27.279
bit of the face. And I thought, okay, let's just

286
00:24:27.359 --> 00:24:30.160
wait here, see if they come back past again, because

287
00:24:30.200 --> 00:24:33.160
it means it probably is them, that person that did

288
00:24:33.200 --> 00:24:37.519
it yesterday. And they came past again, this time in heat.

289
00:24:37.680 --> 00:24:40.960
It might be. A woman nodded at me, so I

290
00:24:41.079 --> 00:24:47.599
nodded back, you know, and then they kind of it

291
00:24:47.720 --> 00:24:51.599
did it once morning. We're gone, so I don't know.

292
00:24:51.640 --> 00:24:53.240
I just wanted to see who it was. I just

293
00:24:56.079 --> 00:25:01.079
so I'm okay because I'm very very particularly I say

294
00:25:01.119 --> 00:25:04.319
I'm okay, but generally I'm very meticulous when it comes

295
00:25:04.359 --> 00:25:08.400
acrossing the road. I'm very careful, especially with this little one,

296
00:25:08.480 --> 00:25:12.559
because he will just run out if he gets a chance.

297
00:25:14.119 --> 00:25:15.960
And I've been trying to teach him the green Cross

298
00:25:16.039 --> 00:25:24.200
code for you know, nearly three years, three years and

299
00:25:24.279 --> 00:25:28.440
four months, three years in four months, not and four months.

300
00:25:30.440 --> 00:25:33.640
So in December, I'll have had him for three whole

301
00:25:34.079 --> 00:25:40.000
long long to ask him has been very long, boring years,

302
00:25:41.279 --> 00:25:48.079
three years, and he's still I'm sure he's still not

303
00:25:48.240 --> 00:25:54.319
used to me yet. I'm yeah, it takes a while.

304
00:25:54.359 --> 00:26:01.680
I think, an acquired taste, as they say. So. The

305
00:26:01.880 --> 00:26:08.839
Teddy Bear is named after the US President, Theodore Teddy Roosevelt.

306
00:26:12.559 --> 00:26:20.920
Really though, really, the only reason I'm saying that is

307
00:26:20.960 --> 00:26:25.759
because I'm pretty sure i've seen antique teddy bears from

308
00:26:25.920 --> 00:26:32.400
hundreds of years ago. Maybe they didn't call them teddy

309
00:26:32.440 --> 00:26:39.119
bears back then, I don't know, but I'm just gonna

310
00:26:39.799 --> 00:26:42.119
some of this stuff may be true. It may be

311
00:26:42.400 --> 00:26:49.160
absolute horsepoo, I don't know. Let's just assume it may

312
00:26:49.200 --> 00:26:51.559
be true and may not. I'm going to read it

313
00:26:51.640 --> 00:26:57.599
out anyway, so, as I say in previous recordings, try

314
00:26:57.680 --> 00:27:00.559
not to get into a conversation or an argument with someone,

315
00:27:01.279 --> 00:27:05.119
and don't use these trivia facts that you hear me

316
00:27:05.359 --> 00:27:09.240
tell you in an argument to back up your you know,

317
00:27:11.359 --> 00:27:15.920
your point, because it might all be just complete drivel.

318
00:27:17.960 --> 00:27:25.839
And maybe on that occasion if the subject of teddy bears, well,

319
00:27:25.880 --> 00:27:27.400
first of all, do you really want to be getting

320
00:27:27.400 --> 00:27:33.960
into an argument about teddy bears? And secondly, on this occasion,

321
00:27:34.079 --> 00:27:36.559
if you do get into an argument about teddy bears,

322
00:27:36.880 --> 00:27:41.799
you may choose to be happy rather than to be right.

323
00:27:43.680 --> 00:27:47.000
You know, just just try it out. You might like it.

324
00:27:50.680 --> 00:27:55.559
So apparently it all started. This is the origins and

325
00:27:55.640 --> 00:28:02.880
the history all started in nineteen two, after Roosevelt refused

326
00:28:02.960 --> 00:28:11.319
to shoot a bear. Okay, I don't really know much

327
00:28:11.319 --> 00:28:16.319
about that story. A political cartoon about Roosevelt's kindness inspired

328
00:28:16.599 --> 00:28:24.519
the toy. Maurice Mitchen, a Brooklyn shop owner, made the

329
00:28:24.680 --> 00:28:29.839
first Teddy's Bear. Oh so it wasn't called a teddy bear.

330
00:28:29.880 --> 00:28:37.799
It was called Teddy's Bear. And at the same time,

331
00:28:38.319 --> 00:28:47.160
in Germany, Richard Steiffe or Stiffy Stiff stiff Stuve stuff

332
00:28:48.359 --> 00:28:57.319
designed adjointed plush bear. So completely independent, but they probably

333
00:28:57.359 --> 00:29:02.759
didn't call him Teddy. I don't know what a German

334
00:29:03.039 --> 00:29:09.359
German version for Teddy would be. I don't know. I'm no,

335
00:29:09.519 --> 00:29:10.920
I'm not going to do the accident. I don't know

336
00:29:11.039 --> 00:29:19.799
what it would be and ask what's his name? What's

337
00:29:19.880 --> 00:29:23.680
his name? That ah if you know a German person

338
00:29:23.759 --> 00:29:26.599
asked them. If this is a German person, listen, welcome

339
00:29:28.359 --> 00:29:32.920
and what did you call what do you call teddy

340
00:29:32.960 --> 00:29:40.640
bears in Germany? Maybe I could say put that out

341
00:29:40.720 --> 00:29:43.480
to all countries. What do you call it teddy bear

342
00:29:43.920 --> 00:29:49.240
in the country you live? And is it a different

343
00:29:49.359 --> 00:29:51.759
name or is it just teddy bear in your language?

344
00:29:54.680 --> 00:30:02.519
If that makes sense, I think it does. Steiff bears, oh,

345
00:30:02.599 --> 00:30:06.359
they called them stiff bears were displayed at the Leipzig

346
00:30:06.559 --> 00:30:12.759
Toy Fair in nineteen oh three, and a US buyer

347
00:30:13.000 --> 00:30:19.559
ordered three thousand stiff bears on the spot, and the

348
00:30:19.640 --> 00:30:27.079
first stiffed Teddy bears had long, pointed snouts and the

349
00:30:27.160 --> 00:30:35.480
earliest bears were stuffed with Excelsior wood shavings. Excelsior, isn't

350
00:30:35.519 --> 00:30:52.079
that in a Carrol there with Excelsior wood shavings? Okay,

351
00:30:53.759 --> 00:31:00.359
Collectibles and value some antique stiff Bears sulfur about one

352
00:31:00.400 --> 00:31:10.319
hundred grand. What if my bear was an antique? Okay,

353
00:31:10.599 --> 00:31:14.680
the most The world's most expensive teddy Bear was called

354
00:31:14.880 --> 00:31:18.799
Teddy Girl, sold for one hundred and seventy one thousand,

355
00:31:18.920 --> 00:31:28.640
six hundred our dollars nineteen ninety four. Is it weird

356
00:31:28.880 --> 00:31:42.079
that that's thirty nearly twenty nine years ago and there's

357
00:31:42.119 --> 00:31:44.920
not been any other Teddy Bears sold for more than that.

358
00:31:49.079 --> 00:31:54.640
Wait a minute, Howard's once sold at Louis Verton teddy

359
00:31:54.680 --> 00:32:00.400
Bear for two point one million. So why does saying

360
00:32:00.880 --> 00:32:04.240
the world's most extense expensive teddy Bear was was one

361
00:32:04.319 --> 00:32:09.720
hundred and seventy one grand when right underneath this saying

362
00:32:10.359 --> 00:32:12.880
that there was a Louis Vuton teddy Bear for two

363
00:32:12.960 --> 00:32:21.319
point one million. That makes no sense. Collectors of Teddy

364
00:32:21.319 --> 00:32:30.160
Bears called themselves atra files to be fair. I don't

365
00:32:30.200 --> 00:32:35.720
think the word files really, I don't know. It just

366
00:32:35.799 --> 00:32:41.160
doesn't sound right anymore against anything. So either it's a

367
00:32:41.279 --> 00:32:44.759
rec no fhile or he I don't know whatever. It

368
00:32:45.359 --> 00:32:47.680
just perhaps we just started getting rid of the name

369
00:32:48.400 --> 00:32:53.880
the word piles par files spelled like piles with an

370
00:32:54.079 --> 00:32:59.960
H per Piles it means Greek for bear lovers exactly.

371
00:33:01.039 --> 00:33:08.599
It sounds dodgy, don't it. Some bears have while some

372
00:33:08.799 --> 00:33:14.839
bears have passports and travel the world with owners. That

373
00:33:16.720 --> 00:33:30.359
sounds ridiculous. Passports maybe as a joke, like a jokey passport,

374
00:33:30.960 --> 00:33:38.079
but I'm pretty certain you wouldn't actually have to show

375
00:33:38.119 --> 00:33:44.920
a passport when traveling abroad with a Teddy Bear. You

376
00:33:45.200 --> 00:33:48.839
might have to let them scan the teddy Bear to

377
00:33:48.960 --> 00:33:56.079
make sure that it's nothing weird inside on my washing machines,

378
00:33:56.119 --> 00:34:03.720
going just to case it's not going it's working. Just

379
00:34:03.839 --> 00:34:12.320
started to just heard it goo shaken a bit. Limited

380
00:34:12.639 --> 00:34:19.039
edition bears often rise in value faster than gold. Wow.

381
00:34:22.760 --> 00:34:26.400
I mean to be fair things that the less the

382
00:34:26.559 --> 00:34:31.119
less of something, the more it is to be worth.

383
00:34:32.199 --> 00:34:36.440
Maybe that's why my podcasts are just so worthless because

384
00:34:36.480 --> 00:34:39.960
there's too many of them. I make too many podcasts,

385
00:34:41.320 --> 00:34:44.119
that's what it is. If I need one a month,

386
00:34:45.239 --> 00:34:51.119
one a year, one episode every ten years, maybe it'd

387
00:34:51.159 --> 00:35:01.639
be worth something. Okay, what's over there? Oh, the rarest

388
00:35:02.639 --> 00:35:12.000
stiff bears have button in ear trademarks, button in the air. Okay.

389
00:35:14.039 --> 00:35:19.519
Some collectors ensure their teddy Bears. Some collectors ensure their

390
00:35:19.639 --> 00:35:25.360
Teddy Bear collections like fine art. I wonder what the

391
00:35:25.519 --> 00:35:34.079
biggest teddy Bear collection in the world is hm. And

392
00:35:34.159 --> 00:35:40.920
before I'd say that out loud, beanie babies briefly rivaled

393
00:35:41.119 --> 00:35:46.960
teddy Bears in collectibility. Yep, I remember that. Remember the

394
00:35:47.000 --> 00:35:52.280
cabbage Patch dolls in the nineties they were so popular.

395
00:35:53.159 --> 00:35:57.199
I think, cabbage Patch dolls, Wow? And then you god,

396
00:35:57.239 --> 00:36:00.760
the Teddy Tubbies, didn't you. They were really poppy as well,

397
00:36:03.280 --> 00:36:10.920
and celebrity owned bears like Elvis's Elvis Presley's fetched crazy

398
00:36:11.159 --> 00:36:17.239
prices at auction. Elvis Presley had a teddy Bear. I

399
00:36:17.360 --> 00:36:21.920
wonder how much that was worth. Yeah, I'd have thought

400
00:36:22.039 --> 00:36:24.639
something like that was a bit squeaky, wasn't it. I'd

401
00:36:24.719 --> 00:36:28.119
have thought that something like Elvis Presley's teddy Bear would

402
00:36:28.159 --> 00:36:33.000
be cherished by the family because he's still got his

403
00:36:33.159 --> 00:36:42.039
wife's still alive, and he's still got grandkids, probably got

404
00:36:42.119 --> 00:36:45.239
distant relatives as well. I thought that maybe that would

405
00:36:45.280 --> 00:36:51.199
be would probably be in Graceland, wouldn't it the house

406
00:36:51.320 --> 00:36:57.519
that he used to live in. So Winnie the Pooh

407
00:36:57.960 --> 00:37:01.559
was inspired by a real teddy Bear owned by a A.

408
00:37:02.719 --> 00:37:11.000
Milne's Milner's son, and Paddington Bear was named after Paddington

409
00:37:11.119 --> 00:37:15.480
Station in London. Really, oh, I thought it was the

410
00:37:15.519 --> 00:37:23.960
other way around. I thought Paddington Bear was like one

411
00:37:24.079 --> 00:37:30.960
hundred years old, two hundred years old. Clearly not Rupert Bear.

412
00:37:31.800 --> 00:37:40.159
Ruper Rupert de Bear. Everyone loves his name. His name

413
00:37:40.320 --> 00:37:46.960
is Ruper Rupert de Bear. Everyone knows his name dere

414
00:37:47.639 --> 00:37:50.960
and they're glad that he came something like that. Rupert

415
00:37:51.039 --> 00:37:55.880
Bear first appeared in a British newspaper in nineteen twenty.

416
00:37:57.719 --> 00:38:01.440
And then you've got Smoky Bear, the fire PRETENTI the

417
00:38:01.599 --> 00:38:10.239
fire Lili, the fire prevention mascot. Smoky Bear was created

418
00:38:10.360 --> 00:38:15.559
in nineteen forty four. Then you had the care Bears.

419
00:38:16.880 --> 00:38:20.000
The care Bears I forgot about. The care Bears were

420
00:38:20.039 --> 00:38:25.960
invented in nineteen eighties as greeting card characters. Teddy rock

421
00:38:26.000 --> 00:38:30.519
Spin nineteen eighty five was the first talking Teddy Bear.

422
00:38:32.159 --> 00:38:36.760
Why do I remember that Teddy Ruckspin. Did he like

423
00:38:36.920 --> 00:38:44.000
say Hi, I'm Teddy ruck Spin. Hi, I'm Teddy Ruckspin.

424
00:38:46.840 --> 00:38:50.599
I'm Teddy Ruxpin. I'm sure it did stuff like that.

425
00:38:51.119 --> 00:38:53.119
Did I have that little cord that you pulled in

426
00:38:53.199 --> 00:38:57.519
the back of it, and they say I'm teddy rasc raspin.

427
00:38:57.800 --> 00:39:02.800
I mean, yeah, I wonder what else it said. I

428
00:39:02.880 --> 00:39:07.079
can't remember. I'm sure I saw one, though, because the

429
00:39:07.159 --> 00:39:10.920
good thing about toys is even if I mean, you know,

430
00:39:11.400 --> 00:39:14.039
as a kid, you can't have every single toy, nor

431
00:39:14.079 --> 00:39:17.719
would I want every single toy, but I kind of

432
00:39:17.800 --> 00:39:20.440
got to see most of the toys, even if it

433
00:39:20.599 --> 00:39:24.199
was especially like girls stuff. I know it could be

434
00:39:24.280 --> 00:39:27.000
controversial to say that, but back when I was a kid,

435
00:39:27.599 --> 00:39:31.280
there was toys for girls and toys for boys, and

436
00:39:31.400 --> 00:39:35.280
then ones that kind of both were allowed. Allowed both

437
00:39:35.400 --> 00:39:40.760
would play, and the girl next door shared a lot

438
00:39:40.760 --> 00:39:45.079
of girls stuff. And I had cousins that had female

439
00:39:45.159 --> 00:39:47.840
cousins that had stuff, So I got to see some

440
00:39:48.000 --> 00:39:51.639
of the not in ninet eighty five, but before that

441
00:39:51.920 --> 00:39:55.679
got to see some of the different things, but also

442
00:39:55.960 --> 00:39:59.079
other friends that I had at school, i'd see stuff

443
00:39:59.119 --> 00:40:02.320
that they had. Again, not nineteen eighty five, because I

444
00:40:02.360 --> 00:40:05.119
had left school by that point, was nearly left school.

445
00:40:06.199 --> 00:40:09.960
I left in nineteen eighty six, so I wasn't buying bears.

446
00:40:10.480 --> 00:40:16.440
But my little brother in nineen eighty five was seven,

447
00:40:17.079 --> 00:40:21.639
so he might have had a Teddy ruckspin Teddy Bear.

448
00:40:22.800 --> 00:40:24.960
Now I would ask him, but he probably doesn't want

449
00:40:25.000 --> 00:40:34.960
to talk about it. He'd probably forgotten. And twenty seven okay,

450
00:40:35.320 --> 00:40:42.760
mister Bean's Teddy, simply called Teddy is iconic worldwide, and

451
00:40:43.039 --> 00:40:49.079
in Japan, Kawai culture made Teddy Bears super popular again.

452
00:40:50.400 --> 00:40:54.960
I'm not quite sure what that is all build a

453
00:40:55.039 --> 00:40:58.440
bear workshop lets kids design their own teddies. We have

454
00:40:58.519 --> 00:41:01.920
one of those in this town. I've never been in

455
00:41:02.000 --> 00:41:04.760
a build a Bear workshop. I don't think I might

456
00:41:04.800 --> 00:41:12.159
have done. Did I? I don't think I have. I

457
00:41:12.239 --> 00:41:15.039
think I might have done. Actually, like twenty five years ago,

458
00:41:15.880 --> 00:41:20.320
I might gone in there with with someone. I'm not sure.

459
00:41:20.880 --> 00:41:23.960
I think I might have done briefly, just to have

460
00:41:24.039 --> 00:41:27.679
a look. No, I don't think I would have done,

461
00:41:27.679 --> 00:41:34.480
would I? It's possible. In two thousands, a Teddy Bear

462
00:41:34.719 --> 00:41:44.639
was sent into space. Brilliant. Why when they said sent

463
00:41:44.760 --> 00:41:52.079
into space, it was just released into space. Do they

464
00:41:52.199 --> 00:41:57.719
really spend all that money launching a rocket to send

465
00:41:57.800 --> 00:42:02.079
a Teddy Bear into space? That's a lot of money.

466
00:42:03.760 --> 00:42:07.159
Each one of those rockets must cost at least two

467
00:42:07.280 --> 00:42:14.280
or three thousand pounds to send up. You know, funn

468
00:42:14.320 --> 00:42:19.079
and quirky bits. Okay, these are funning quirky bits. The

469
00:42:19.199 --> 00:42:24.239
world's smallest teddy is only five millimeters tall. It's not

470
00:42:24.440 --> 00:42:29.679
small five millimeters. They really don't know. What's the world's

471
00:42:29.760 --> 00:42:34.119
largest teddy is over sixty three feet and it's in Mexico.

472
00:42:35.880 --> 00:42:38.880
I mean really, I mean that is massive. Let's face it,

473
00:42:39.719 --> 00:42:43.880
sixty three feet. I think that's the size of a building,

474
00:42:43.920 --> 00:42:48.920
isn't it pretty much? In fact? No, that's sixty three feet.

475
00:42:49.000 --> 00:42:57.039
That's like a is that a tower block? Maybe? Maybe

476
00:42:57.079 --> 00:42:59.159
they built it. They just put the little the world's

477
00:42:59.599 --> 00:43:04.920
they put another teddy bear on its head with a

478
00:43:04.920 --> 00:43:08.480
little in a little hat, maybe with a spring. So

479
00:43:08.559 --> 00:43:11.320
when he had finished building the one in Mexico sixty

480
00:43:11.360 --> 00:43:15.760
three feet long tall other, they just released the other

481
00:43:15.800 --> 00:43:17.679
one from the hat and it just pushed it into

482
00:43:17.760 --> 00:43:21.239
space because only like another few feet away. Wasn't it

483
00:43:21.360 --> 00:43:27.280
to be in space? Yeah? I went to school, you see,

484
00:43:27.840 --> 00:43:33.599
I know a lot about space. Some teddy bears come

485
00:43:33.920 --> 00:43:43.199
with building heartbeats for comfort. Okay, it's comforting, great, but

486
00:43:43.320 --> 00:43:46.960
what about when the batteries run out? I imagine the

487
00:43:47.079 --> 00:43:53.079
feelings a lot different from comfort. You know, you little

488
00:43:53.159 --> 00:43:55.360
kids like oh, it's comforting. I can feel it, and

489
00:43:55.480 --> 00:44:01.239
you wake up like, aha, the heartbeat stopped. It's just

490
00:44:01.320 --> 00:44:09.559
the batteries. Don't worry some teddy bears. Okay, a teddy

491
00:44:09.599 --> 00:44:12.760
bear once parachuted from a plane as a stunt. No,

492
00:44:14.519 --> 00:44:17.199
a teddy bear was chucked out of a plane with

493
00:44:17.360 --> 00:44:22.119
a parachute on. The teddy bear didn't parachute out on

494
00:44:22.199 --> 00:44:28.440
his own. Come on, ridiculous. Teddy Bears don't do stuff

495
00:44:28.559 --> 00:44:35.440
like that. They're scared of heights. A soldier in WW

496
00:44:35.920 --> 00:44:46.519
one carried tiny teddy bears in their pockets. Okay, it's

497
00:44:46.559 --> 00:44:50.639
a bit random, isn't it. Some teddy bears are designed

498
00:44:50.760 --> 00:44:57.400
with hot water bottles inside. Good idea. It's a very

499
00:44:57.480 --> 00:45:02.760
good idea. In fact, it's possibly the best idea that's

500
00:45:02.840 --> 00:45:08.880
ever happened ever anyway, any anywhere in the world. Because

501
00:45:08.880 --> 00:45:14.199
you're going to have the teddy bear, you know, in

502
00:45:14.320 --> 00:45:18.559
your bed, and you want to feel warm and cozy,

503
00:45:19.039 --> 00:45:25.679
have it inside the teddy bear. It makes sense. The

504
00:45:25.760 --> 00:45:27.559
problem is, when I was a kid, I actually thought

505
00:45:27.599 --> 00:45:31.039
my teddy bear was alive. So the idea of like

506
00:45:31.199 --> 00:45:33.559
opening it up and putting a big hot water bottle

507
00:45:33.599 --> 00:45:36.880
inside him didn't really, you know, wouldn't have I wouldn't

508
00:45:36.880 --> 00:45:40.960
have liked that. We you done to him, you know

509
00:45:42.159 --> 00:45:44.639
bad enough? You keep sticking him in a washing machine.

510
00:45:46.480 --> 00:45:49.840
And some teddy bears Okay, teddy bears are banned in

511
00:45:50.000 --> 00:45:55.199
some hospitals for carrying germs. What about the nurses? Then?

512
00:45:55.960 --> 00:45:59.719
What about all the other patients? The visitors. Visitors aren't

513
00:45:59.760 --> 00:46:02.480
bad and they got following more germs and a teddy

514
00:46:02.480 --> 00:46:07.840
bear that have Leave the teddy bears alone. I've seen

515
00:46:09.480 --> 00:46:11.719
I'm not being horrible about care workers, but I've seen

516
00:46:11.800 --> 00:46:15.800
and you must have seen this as well, right, care

517
00:46:15.920 --> 00:46:25.320
workers walking to work with their uniform on. Okay, their

518
00:46:25.519 --> 00:46:30.039
uniform already on, and they're getting on a bus, getting

519
00:46:30.079 --> 00:46:36.159
on a train, walking down the street with their uniform,

520
00:46:36.280 --> 00:46:42.159
with their you know, like you know all about germs.

521
00:46:42.280 --> 00:46:45.039
They don't get to hospital in their normal clothes, or

522
00:46:45.119 --> 00:46:48.880
some of them might, but it's not this big, absolute,

523
00:46:49.079 --> 00:46:55.400
like zero germ area where everyone gets undressed and gets

524
00:46:55.519 --> 00:47:00.639
sprayed down with disinfectant like in the movies or ET

525
00:47:00.920 --> 00:47:05.519
or whatever. Going back a bit, and I and you know,

526
00:47:05.760 --> 00:47:07.760
or like in space movies, you know, when they go

527
00:47:07.840 --> 00:47:10.400
in and they get all like washed off, so that

528
00:47:10.519 --> 00:47:13.480
they can be germ free and then they get put

529
00:47:13.519 --> 00:47:19.360
into their new clothes and they're you know, no germs

530
00:47:19.400 --> 00:47:25.079
are going in our hospital all the time. Man's leave

531
00:47:25.159 --> 00:47:29.079
the Teddy Bears alone. That's all I'm saying. You know,

532
00:47:29.159 --> 00:47:33.400
I'm not choosing teddy Bears over care workers, because obviously

533
00:47:33.519 --> 00:47:38.360
care workers are so important and they're amazing. Not having

534
00:47:38.360 --> 00:47:40.519
to go at care workers, I'm just saying, you know,

535
00:47:41.079 --> 00:47:43.440
if we're going to go on about germs, leave the

536
00:47:43.559 --> 00:47:47.199
Teddy Bears alone. That's all I'm saying. I'm just sticking

537
00:47:47.280 --> 00:47:49.960
up for the Teddy Bears. I'm not in any corner

538
00:47:51.039 --> 00:47:52.800
except that I am in the corner of the Teddy Bears,

539
00:47:53.559 --> 00:47:55.679
not having to go at nurses or doctors or anything

540
00:47:55.760 --> 00:47:58.920
like that. But leave the Teddy Bears alone, that's all

541
00:47:58.960 --> 00:48:04.480
I'm saying. Okay, you know, if you I'm one million

542
00:48:04.519 --> 00:48:08.840
percent behind doctors, nurses, care workers, the cleaners in hospital,

543
00:48:09.360 --> 00:48:15.039
everyone in hospitals, you know, it's amazing. We are so lucky.

544
00:48:16.440 --> 00:48:21.400
Anyone that has a hospital is lucky. It's very fortunate

545
00:48:21.519 --> 00:48:23.519
that there's people that are willing to do that work.

546
00:48:24.400 --> 00:48:27.760
You know, from my heart, genuinely, having spent the last

547
00:48:27.880 --> 00:48:31.559
or six weeks in and out of hospital visiting someone.

548
00:48:32.719 --> 00:48:39.440
You know, they are angels. However, if you mess with

549
00:48:39.559 --> 00:48:44.239
teddy Bears, that's the line I won't cross, and I

550
00:48:44.280 --> 00:48:47.639
won't allow anyone else to cross either, because I choose

551
00:48:47.679 --> 00:48:51.440
a Teddy Bear over doctors every time, and less, of

552
00:48:51.519 --> 00:48:54.000
course I was in the hospital, then I'd probably choose

553
00:48:54.039 --> 00:48:58.039
a doctor, you know, basically. But you know, I'm just saying,

554
00:48:58.119 --> 00:49:00.159
leave the Teddy Bears alone. That's what I'm saying in

555
00:49:01.000 --> 00:49:07.760
all I'm trying to say, and especially not even just

556
00:49:07.840 --> 00:49:11.079
for kids. I mean, come on, taking away kids Teddy

557
00:49:11.119 --> 00:49:16.480
Bear when they're in hospital just seems wrong. But taking

558
00:49:16.519 --> 00:49:22.159
away anyone's Teddy Bear when they're in hospital, you know,

559
00:49:22.639 --> 00:49:29.559
it's just come on, leave the Teddy Bear alone. So

560
00:49:29.679 --> 00:49:33.519
that was a reference from the wanderers in case you're wondering,

561
00:49:34.440 --> 00:49:38.719
Case you're wondering, Teddy Bear is a band. Okay, Queen

562
00:49:38.800 --> 00:49:43.599
Elizabeth the Second had a Teddy Bear collection into adulthood.

563
00:49:45.119 --> 00:49:49.400
Why are you mocking Queen Elizabeth? See, clearly this is

564
00:49:49.559 --> 00:49:56.119
like an anti royal place. The queen is my finger.

565
00:49:57.400 --> 00:50:00.719
The queen who's now passed now got king. But the

566
00:50:00.840 --> 00:50:05.599
queen can do what the queen wants to do. That's

567
00:50:05.679 --> 00:50:12.440
as simple as that. Leave the queen, Leave the queen alone.

568
00:50:13.239 --> 00:50:18.920
So leave her alone and her teddy bear collection. Stop

569
00:50:19.000 --> 00:50:22.239
picking on the queen and her teddy bear collection. Or

570
00:50:22.360 --> 00:50:29.119
she had them into adulthood, so what so what was

571
00:50:29.199 --> 00:50:31.679
she not allowed to have teddy bears? Now? Is it

572
00:50:31.800 --> 00:50:35.840
against the law? I don't know. Is this somewhere in

573
00:50:36.360 --> 00:50:39.320
religious scriptures that says teddy bears are not allowed?

574
00:50:40.000 --> 00:50:40.760
Not allowed?

575
00:50:41.679 --> 00:50:46.119
No, leave the teddy bears alone and leave queen alone.

576
00:50:48.559 --> 00:50:51.239
It's weird because, you know, being my age now, there's

577
00:50:51.280 --> 00:50:53.760
only ever going to be one queen. I know, there's

578
00:50:53.760 --> 00:50:56.079
been loads of queens in the past and be loads

579
00:50:56.119 --> 00:50:59.199
of queens in the future. Only one queen in my life.

580
00:51:03.159 --> 00:51:07.760
That's it. Queen Elizabeth's ID or was it the third

581
00:51:07.880 --> 00:51:12.559
I don't know whichever queen we had throughout the entirety

582
00:51:12.679 --> 00:51:17.639
of my life. That's the thing. Until like three years

583
00:51:17.639 --> 00:51:25.280
ago she was was it three years two years ago? Wow?

584
00:51:25.480 --> 00:51:27.679
I don't know. However long years ago? Three years ago

585
00:51:28.519 --> 00:51:37.360
she was the queen kinda easy. Michael Jackson reportedly owned

586
00:51:37.519 --> 00:51:43.599
over one hundred teddy Bears. Yeah, should we move on?

587
00:51:47.800 --> 00:51:50.559
It's like, yeah, but they weren't all for him. It's like, okay, yeah,

588
00:51:50.559 --> 00:51:54.920
should we still move on Elvis? I mean, yeah, Elvis

589
00:51:55.000 --> 00:52:02.760
Presley gifted Priscilla a giant teddy Bear. Okay, leave Elvis

590
00:52:02.840 --> 00:52:16.079
Presley alone and Priscilla. I imagine he probably had to

591
00:52:16.159 --> 00:52:21.079
have it purposely made because they were married in the fifties,

592
00:52:21.159 --> 00:52:25.719
weren't they. And I don't know if I was still

593
00:52:25.760 --> 00:52:30.440
married in the sixties as well, but I reckon in

594
00:52:30.519 --> 00:52:38.599
them days you had to have them made. Specially. Did

595
00:52:38.679 --> 00:52:44.719
Priscilla Presley live in Graceland with Elvis all the time

596
00:52:45.079 --> 00:52:55.639
or did she move out when they parted? I don't know. Oh. Look,

597
00:52:56.039 --> 00:53:00.360
Teddy Bear days and events. September ninth is nest Or

598
00:53:00.840 --> 00:53:04.840
Teddy Bear Day in the United States, and October is

599
00:53:05.039 --> 00:53:11.400
National Teddy Bear Day in the UK. I got nothing

600
00:53:11.440 --> 00:53:16.360
to say about that. It's like, why Teddy Bear picnics

601
00:53:16.559 --> 00:53:24.599
are celebrated worldwide? Really they're not. I don't. This is

602
00:53:24.760 --> 00:53:29.559
my first knowledge of that. I've never I mean, I've

603
00:53:29.599 --> 00:53:32.280
heard about the Teddy Bears, if you can go the

604
00:53:32.360 --> 00:53:36.079
Teddy Bears, I have in the I've heard the song,

605
00:53:36.639 --> 00:53:39.519
but I've never seen it in reality. I've never walked

606
00:53:39.519 --> 00:53:43.039
through the woods and seen teddy bears well, you know,

607
00:53:43.400 --> 00:53:48.159
sitting on a big blanket with a basket full of

608
00:53:48.239 --> 00:53:54.719
stuff that they wouldn't normally eat, sitting around uncomfortable. Wish

609
00:53:54.800 --> 00:54:00.679
they had had chairs, wish had stayed at home. You know,

610
00:54:00.840 --> 00:54:07.039
I've just never seen that. Australia has an annual Teddy

611
00:54:07.039 --> 00:54:13.360
Bear's Picnic Day, Guinness World Records has multiple Teddy Bear categories,

612
00:54:15.599 --> 00:54:23.840
and Germany holds Teddy Bear festivals. Sebastian. Wonder what Sebastian

613
00:54:23.920 --> 00:54:27.480
has to say about this? Now? I know Sebastian is

614
00:54:27.519 --> 00:54:30.119
not the only person that listens to me from Germany,

615
00:54:31.119 --> 00:54:34.400
but he's the only person I've ever had contact with

616
00:54:34.800 --> 00:54:40.039
that I know of, and he, I imagine he knows

617
00:54:40.119 --> 00:54:47.280
everything about children's toys. Some charities hold host Teddy Bear

618
00:54:47.400 --> 00:54:52.559
hospital events for children, and in Finland there's a Teddy

619
00:54:52.559 --> 00:55:00.360
Bear museum with one thousand plus bears. Oh Denmark has

620
00:55:00.400 --> 00:55:06.840
a dedicated Teddy Bear art gallery. Amsterdam has a gallery

621
00:55:06.880 --> 00:55:12.000
as well, has a museum and it's full of wit. No,

622
00:55:12.079 --> 00:55:19.519
it's not bears, Okay, let's move on. Japan hosts Teddy

623
00:55:19.639 --> 00:55:27.800
Bear exhibitions mixing fashion and bears. Okay, all right, cool,

624
00:55:28.079 --> 00:55:32.840
this is going well. A teddy bear once survived what

625
00:55:34.440 --> 00:55:38.880
a teddy bear once survived the Titanic sinking? It was

626
00:55:38.920 --> 00:55:42.440
owned by a child. I don't know why to put

627
00:55:42.480 --> 00:55:46.800
that in brackets. Is sure it wasn't a captain's one? No,

628
00:55:47.719 --> 00:55:52.960
sure it wasn't. Actually it was driving the ship. That's

629
00:55:53.000 --> 00:55:56.079
why it's sunk. Don't put up teddy bear in charge

630
00:55:56.079 --> 00:56:03.039
of a very shit thing. There's a way to put it.

631
00:56:03.119 --> 00:56:05.320
A teddy bear once survived. I was not going to

632
00:56:05.679 --> 00:56:14.960
survive it twice? Is it? Some WW one soldiers believed

633
00:56:15.079 --> 00:56:24.719
teddy bear has brought luck? Yeah? I wonder how many

634
00:56:24.840 --> 00:56:28.679
thought that after the war, if they just I wonder

635
00:56:28.679 --> 00:56:33.920
how long they thought that. How many people were in

636
00:56:34.079 --> 00:56:41.599
hospital just like shouting at their teddy Bears. In nineteen

637
00:56:41.760 --> 00:56:45.199
twenty four, a teddy bear ran for mayor of Oxford

638
00:56:45.320 --> 00:56:50.159
as a joke. No, a person ran a teddy bear

639
00:56:51.039 --> 00:56:53.840
for mayor of Oxford. And a teddy bear can't do

640
00:56:53.960 --> 00:57:01.400
on its own, can it? NASA before Wow, I'm surprised

641
00:57:01.440 --> 00:57:03.639
so allowed to get away with that. Things were a

642
00:57:03.639 --> 00:57:05.599
lot more serious back then, as far as I know,

643
00:57:07.840 --> 00:57:11.679
NASA astronauts have flown teddy Bears into allbit that's kind

644
00:57:11.719 --> 00:57:15.440
of been covered already, isn't it. A teddy Bear was

645
00:57:15.480 --> 00:57:17.960
the first toy ever taking. Yeah, but you were talking

646
00:57:18.000 --> 00:57:23.119
about the space thing. We talked about that some Teddy

647
00:57:23.119 --> 00:57:28.960
Bears have built in cameras for security, and I don't

648
00:57:29.000 --> 00:57:32.079
know what else that's got. It's kind of a good idea.

649
00:57:32.159 --> 00:57:40.320
And also, hm, I did think about putting a spy

650
00:57:40.519 --> 00:57:46.239
camera into uncle's sausages. He said, hotel room, then hospital room,

651
00:57:46.559 --> 00:57:51.760
because he was really saying stuff that people were kidnapping him.

652
00:57:51.800 --> 00:57:55.920
I know they weren't, but I still like I had

653
00:57:55.960 --> 00:57:59.920
this kind of just maybe it was loud, wasn't it.

654
00:58:00.159 --> 00:58:04.119
Dog's barking very loudly. Normally barks for a few times

655
00:58:04.159 --> 00:58:09.280
before it stops. Never used the bark at all until

656
00:58:09.320 --> 00:58:15.639
it moved in. In two thousand and eight, a British

657
00:58:15.719 --> 00:58:24.440
teddy Bear was kidnapped by pirates. True story apparently. I

658
00:58:24.599 --> 00:58:27.639
don't know. I'm just I don't know. That just doesn't

659
00:58:27.760 --> 00:58:36.960
sound that sounds weird. Yeah, I mean, if a teddy

660
00:58:37.000 --> 00:58:41.440
Bear was used with built in cameras for security, does

661
00:58:41.480 --> 00:58:45.119
that mean that they would be called up in a trial?

662
00:58:46.119 --> 00:58:49.679
They'll be put on the stand and questioned just a question.

663
00:58:51.599 --> 00:58:59.920
Chernobyl has abandoned teddy bears. Still Chernobyl had abandoned te

664
00:59:00.280 --> 00:59:02.880
Oh god, that's that's, that's why I don't stop it.

665
00:59:03.719 --> 00:59:10.480
Some teddy bears are made with alpaca fur instead of mohair. Yah.

666
00:59:12.440 --> 00:59:16.119
Teddy Bears have been used as therapy tools since w

667
00:59:16.519 --> 00:59:22.400
W one. I mean just cuddling something that doesn't pull

668
00:59:22.440 --> 00:59:24.800
away from you like this little one. He pulls away

669
00:59:24.800 --> 00:59:27.000
from me and growls and bites me if I try

670
00:59:27.039 --> 00:59:32.920
and cuddle him. So, I don't know how I ended

671
00:59:33.000 --> 00:59:39.480
up with a dog that is just so doesn't like

672
00:59:39.559 --> 00:59:44.480
intimacy like cuddling. But some dogs absolutely love being cuddled.

673
00:59:44.519 --> 00:59:46.519
That's all they want to do is sit on the

674
00:59:46.599 --> 00:59:49.840
lap and be cuddled. I don't want him one man

675
00:59:49.840 --> 00:59:54.320
app all the time, but it'd be nice to have

676
00:59:54.519 --> 00:59:57.599
like a little cuddle. And although he is cuddled up

677
00:59:57.880 --> 01:00:00.239
to me and I have got my arm on and

678
01:00:00.280 --> 01:00:04.960
I'm stroking in my hand, I'm just you know, it's

679
01:00:05.039 --> 01:00:09.760
not the same as a proper cuddle. I don't know.

680
01:00:12.079 --> 01:00:16.199
Maybe I expect too much of him. The world's biggest

681
01:00:16.239 --> 01:00:21.840
teddy bear collection belongs to Jackie Miley over eight thousand,

682
01:00:23.920 --> 01:00:27.480
and the tallest Teddy Bear ever made stands taller than

683
01:00:27.519 --> 01:00:33.199
a giraffe. Teddy Bears have been made from denim, leather,

684
01:00:33.400 --> 01:00:40.519
and even gold thread. And some Teddy Bears have diamond eyes. Wow,

685
01:00:40.719 --> 01:00:46.320
mind didn't So. The first animated film star Teddy was

686
01:00:46.360 --> 01:00:51.960
The Teddy Bears nineteen oh seven, Teddy Bears appearing over

687
01:00:52.000 --> 01:00:57.079
one hundred feature films. There's a first Teddy Bear museum

688
01:00:57.280 --> 01:01:05.400
opened in Petersville Field, Petersfield, UK, nineteen eighty four. And

689
01:01:05.760 --> 01:01:09.599
that what There are hotel Teddy Bear hotels in Japan

690
01:01:11.079 --> 01:01:18.800
where kids bears get pempered. Wow, yeah cool? I mean yeah,

691
01:01:18.880 --> 01:01:22.920
I don't know. A Teddy Bear once completed the London

692
01:01:23.000 --> 01:01:28.800
Marathon strapped to a runner. I mean technically they're saying that,

693
01:01:28.960 --> 01:01:34.719
but what about how many bits of chewing gum? You know,

694
01:01:34.760 --> 01:01:36.920
whatever is in your pocket if you're doing a marathon

695
01:01:37.440 --> 01:01:42.119
has also completed the marathon. So a pair of socks, underpants,

696
01:01:44.519 --> 01:01:47.079
used condom. I don't know whatever that's in your pocket

697
01:01:47.480 --> 01:01:52.559
or on your foot, you know, a necklace, a brasier,

698
01:01:54.079 --> 01:02:01.000
a thong, a hat, a wig, nell, parley, polish, new

699
01:02:01.079 --> 01:02:09.079
varnish or whatever, fake nails, fake eyelashes, piercings, you know,

700
01:02:09.360 --> 01:02:15.440
just like ear rings or nipple rings or nose rings

701
01:02:15.639 --> 01:02:20.760
or whatever. You could just change Teddy Bears for any

702
01:02:20.760 --> 01:02:24.639
of those things and say a piece of chewing gum.

703
01:02:24.719 --> 01:02:29.440
Once completed the London Marathon strapped to a runner or

704
01:02:29.519 --> 01:02:35.559
a cough cough tablet, or I don't know what kinds

705
01:02:35.599 --> 01:02:39.360
of things people a bag of feathers. I don't know

706
01:02:39.599 --> 01:02:48.199
what people take. I mean, probably not a barbell, because

707
01:02:48.400 --> 01:02:52.280
you don't want to take weights with you. Ankle weights. Yeah,

708
01:02:52.360 --> 01:02:54.719
probably that's never been used in a marathon. I imagine.

709
01:02:56.400 --> 01:02:59.239
I used to have ankle weights when I was a kid.

710
01:03:00.440 --> 01:03:03.239
I used to use them when I was practicing kicking,

711
01:03:03.400 --> 01:03:07.440
and also when I used to go running, and it

712
01:03:07.559 --> 01:03:10.239
was weird because I'd go running in them and then

713
01:03:10.280 --> 01:03:14.320
I'd take them off and I'd float away. It was funny.

714
01:03:15.559 --> 01:03:21.400
Early Teddy Bears had real bear claws as accessories. I

715
01:03:21.519 --> 01:03:27.320
don't know why why. Some nineteen hundreds bears were filled

716
01:03:27.360 --> 01:03:33.239
with sawdust, and certain Teddy Bears squeak instead of growl.

717
01:03:34.519 --> 01:03:37.039
I didn't have my Teddy Bear didn't make any sounds.

718
01:03:39.440 --> 01:03:47.679
German Steve Bears originally had shoe button eyes, and safety

719
01:03:47.719 --> 01:03:54.559
plastic eyes didn't appear until the nineteen fifties. Some teddy

720
01:03:54.599 --> 01:04:00.599
bears had real horse hair stuffing, and growler Bear made

721
01:04:00.639 --> 01:04:08.639
a roaring sound when tipped that sounds familiar. Turning the

722
01:04:08.679 --> 01:04:13.920
bear upside down so it growls might not can do

723
01:04:13.960 --> 01:04:17.559
that with Vinnie's got to pick him up and he growls.

724
01:04:19.079 --> 01:04:25.559
Inflatable teddy bears were once soldiers, travel companions, oh and

725
01:04:26.639 --> 01:04:34.280
WW two bears were made from recycled uniforms. Blimey. Some

726
01:04:34.480 --> 01:04:40.840
teddy bears are knitted instead of sewn, so this section

727
01:04:41.000 --> 01:04:46.239
is global love. In Russia, teddy bears are considered symbols

728
01:04:46.280 --> 01:04:53.159
of strength. In Japan, teddybears are given to brides for luck,

729
01:04:55.000 --> 01:05:02.360
and in China teddy bears are exchanged as apologies. France

730
01:05:02.599 --> 01:05:11.519
has luxury teddy bear courtiers, and in Germany stiff bears

731
01:05:11.719 --> 01:05:18.440
are seen international icons. South Korea has a teddy bear

732
01:05:18.599 --> 01:05:28.719
museum in jew Jedju Island, and some African tribes carved

733
01:05:28.760 --> 01:05:32.119
teddy bear like figures from wood. Not as cuddly though

734
01:05:32.119 --> 01:05:34.559
when it's in wood is it not quite as cuddly.

735
01:05:36.119 --> 01:05:38.480
In the Middle East, teddy bears were banned in some

736
01:05:38.679 --> 01:05:43.599
places as Western toys not a Western toy.

737
01:05:45.039 --> 01:05:45.079
No.

738
01:05:47.679 --> 01:05:53.760
In Sweden, teddy bears are often given at graduations, and

739
01:05:53.920 --> 01:05:59.679
in Mexico, giant teddy bears are parade floats because that

740
01:05:59.760 --> 01:06:05.519
was where the biggest sixty two feet or inches, wasn't

741
01:06:05.519 --> 01:06:10.039
it the biggest one ever in Mexico? So this is

742
01:06:10.079 --> 01:06:16.119
the last ten strange facts. In nineteen twenty six. According

743
01:06:16.199 --> 01:06:19.719
to this, a teddy bear saved a child by cushioning

744
01:06:19.840 --> 01:06:24.880
a fall. Wow, how big was the teddy bear or

745
01:06:24.960 --> 01:06:29.079
how small was the child? Because that it'd have to

746
01:06:29.119 --> 01:06:31.920
be quite a lot bigger than a person wouldn't to really,

747
01:06:33.599 --> 01:06:37.960
I don't know. Well, I'm glad anyway, I'm good good.

748
01:06:38.679 --> 01:06:41.719
A teddy bear once got knighted in a school ceremony.

749
01:06:42.679 --> 01:06:47.599
I'm not sure it's really valid though, getting knighted at school,

750
01:06:48.679 --> 01:06:52.159
you know, even as a human. You know, if I

751
01:06:52.239 --> 01:06:56.119
got knighted in a school ceremony and I was called

752
01:06:58.159 --> 01:07:07.719
sir or or knighted, I probably wouldn't be walking around saying, yeah,

753
01:07:07.800 --> 01:07:15.719
my name's sir Lancelot Jason or whatever, like no, lord,

754
01:07:16.320 --> 01:07:21.199
my name is Lord JJ. When did that happen? When

755
01:07:21.239 --> 01:07:25.480
did you get When did you get knighted? I was fourteen,

756
01:07:26.559 --> 01:07:31.000
and it was during a very quiet period, the last

757
01:07:31.039 --> 01:07:34.079
week of school, and I was bored. We were all

758
01:07:34.239 --> 01:07:38.400
very bored, so we united each other in a school ceremony.

759
01:07:39.199 --> 01:07:43.119
So please from now on call me lord. That would

760
01:07:43.119 --> 01:07:45.920
be the end of that conversation, wouldn't it. In fact,

761
01:07:46.079 --> 01:07:50.639
I would hasten to add, it's just a guess that

762
01:07:50.840 --> 01:07:57.480
the job application would be unsuccessful. So some hospitals let

763
01:07:57.679 --> 01:08:03.199
kids dressed teddy bears in surgical scrubs. I mean, that's

764
01:08:03.480 --> 01:08:15.239
that's going the opposite way, isn't it surgical scrubs. I

765
01:08:15.280 --> 01:08:17.720
don't know why that's funny. It's just I don't know.

766
01:08:17.800 --> 01:08:22.199
It's got a visual of that. It's like some hospitals

767
01:08:22.239 --> 01:08:24.279
won't let you have teddy bears at all, and the

768
01:08:24.359 --> 01:08:27.439
other one like, like, well, you can use them as

769
01:08:27.479 --> 01:08:29.880
a doctor if you like, We'll use them as a doctor.

770
01:08:30.640 --> 01:08:36.720
We use them in surgery. A teddy bear wants travel

771
01:08:36.800 --> 01:08:40.680
to the top of Mount Everest. I'm guessing it gain

772
01:08:40.720 --> 01:08:43.479
attached to someone. So the same you could use for

773
01:08:44.000 --> 01:08:51.520
a pair of hiking boots and a tent, a you know,

774
01:08:52.319 --> 01:08:55.000
all kinds of things. That you travel. I mentioned if

775
01:08:55.039 --> 01:08:57.800
you was climbing Mount Everest, there'd be quite a few

776
01:08:57.840 --> 01:09:03.840
different things you'd need with you. A little television, definitely,

777
01:09:04.039 --> 01:09:11.039
a little television, a laptop, stuff like that, and some cheese.

778
01:09:13.199 --> 01:09:17.239
Gotta have a bit of cheese. In twenty twelve, a

779
01:09:17.319 --> 01:09:20.159
teddy Bear went viral after being left on a train.

780
01:09:23.520 --> 01:09:28.520
I don't remember that, thankfully. How did that go viral?

781
01:09:29.520 --> 01:09:33.600
A teddy Bear being left on a train? I'm surprised

782
01:09:33.600 --> 01:09:37.199
they're not made a movie about it. Whoever they are,

783
01:09:38.960 --> 01:09:41.520
please sometimes use teddy Bears to Okay, I'm not going

784
01:09:41.600 --> 01:09:44.319
to read that one out. A teddy Bear once broke

785
01:09:45.560 --> 01:09:53.199
eBay records for online auction price cool. A teddy Bear

786
01:09:53.359 --> 01:10:04.840
themed cruise ship exists. Oh that's nice, and yeah, that's it. Really,

787
01:10:05.079 --> 01:10:08.119
there's one about some psychologists and stuff, but I'm not

788
01:10:08.159 --> 01:10:10.920
going to read that out. Let's keep it light, baby,

789
01:10:11.159 --> 01:10:22.479
nice and light yet. And that's it. That is all

790
01:10:22.880 --> 01:10:25.119
of the one hundred apart from the couple I missed

791
01:10:25.159 --> 01:10:35.439
out teddy Bear facts or teddy Bear trivia facts. I

792
01:10:35.479 --> 01:10:39.880
don't know about you, but I'm excited. That's excited me

793
01:10:39.920 --> 01:10:44.359
in a way that I didn't expect. Mmmmmmm. So thank

794
01:10:44.439 --> 01:10:51.359
you very much for listening, and remember I'll finish now

795
01:10:51.439 --> 01:10:53.960
this at the end of the recording. Remember to be

796
01:10:54.079 --> 01:10:56.399
kind to yourself because you do deserve to be happy.

797
01:10:58.039 --> 01:11:05.520
Be gentle with yourself. You deserve to feel safe. Lots

798
01:11:05.560 --> 01:11:08.600
of love, bye,
