00:00:00.640 --> 00:00:07.360
Hello, and welcome to Jasonnewland dot com. My name is

2
00:00:07.480 --> 00:00:15.800
Jason Newland hend and and and it's time for Trivia Tuesday.

3
00:00:17.120 --> 00:00:24.440
And Vinnie going. It's a bit warm today, a little

4
00:00:24.440 --> 00:00:27.879
bit hot, isn't it. N He went in a garden.

5
00:00:28.679 --> 00:00:35.159
All he wanted to do was he wanted there's this

6
00:00:35.880 --> 00:00:42.000
one of the neighbors has got a one of those

7
00:00:42.320 --> 00:00:48.320
like disability buggy things, and it's kind of new to

8
00:00:48.399 --> 00:00:52.039
the garden, so it has got a cover on it.

9
00:00:52.719 --> 00:01:01.799
And Vinnie is absolutely enthralled. He is, It's like wow,

10
00:01:03.280 --> 00:01:07.319
it's like a new kind of playbox or something. And

11
00:01:07.359 --> 00:01:09.719
he wants to go inside and he wants to see

12
00:01:09.719 --> 00:01:15.400
what's underneath the cover and it's really it gets excited

13
00:01:15.560 --> 00:01:18.480
and he just he's been out there every three times

14
00:01:18.519 --> 00:01:20.319
in a row. I took him out there, and he's

15
00:01:20.400 --> 00:01:23.640
tried to get in there, trying to get underneath the cover.

16
00:01:26.439 --> 00:01:30.599
But it's too hot out there, a bit too hot

17
00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:34.560
to be spending time out there. I've got one window open,

18
00:01:37.959 --> 00:01:43.920
so there might be background sounds, which just the way

19
00:01:43.959 --> 00:01:48.040
it is. Unfortunately, I can he do too much about that.

20
00:01:49.159 --> 00:01:55.079
Someone in a garden coffin. Not really much going on,

21
00:01:56.879 --> 00:02:04.359
just drinking me water, keeping hydrated and all that good stuff.

22
00:02:06.760 --> 00:02:09.599
So please only listen when you can safety close your eyes.

23
00:02:09.879 --> 00:02:13.080
This is let me pull you to sleep. And Vinnie

24
00:02:13.960 --> 00:02:20.800
is here by my side, by my side, just chilling out.

25
00:02:23.759 --> 00:02:33.120
So what I'm going to do today is what am

26
00:02:33.120 --> 00:02:38.919
I going to focus on? Vikings? That's a bit random,

27
00:02:39.000 --> 00:02:45.759
isn't it? A little bit random vikings? So just to

28
00:02:45.840 --> 00:02:50.919
let you know before I continue, I have been doing

29
00:02:50.960 --> 00:02:55.159
a few hypnosis recordings lately which you might be interested in.

30
00:02:55.639 --> 00:03:00.800
I did one yesterday for tenatous relief, a day before bruxism.

31
00:03:01.080 --> 00:03:08.439
I did one for loopus, severe menstrual cramp, five bromyalgia

32
00:03:10.120 --> 00:03:15.800
and dealing with noisy neighbors. I did one for grief,

33
00:03:16.240 --> 00:03:26.479
and I did one for depression. So what's that one, two, three, four, five, six, seven,

34
00:03:27.280 --> 00:03:31.120
eight different subjects, as well as doing a one for

35
00:03:31.199 --> 00:03:38.479
sleep as well. So I've been quite busy. I mean,

36
00:03:38.520 --> 00:03:53.159
what's that twelfth, eleventh, tenth, ninth, eighth and okay, see, yeah,

37
00:03:53.199 --> 00:03:54.840
I did quite a few in a in a row.

38
00:03:56.080 --> 00:03:59.479
Just let you know they're available. I've also got a

39
00:03:59.520 --> 00:04:04.800
Facebook group which is Jason Newland's Boring Group, which you

40
00:04:04.800 --> 00:04:15.199
could join if you like, h there are well, I

41
00:04:15.280 --> 00:04:20.360
don't want that. What am I doing the There's a

42
00:04:20.399 --> 00:04:23.639
link on my website Jasonneuland dot com which will take

43
00:04:23.680 --> 00:04:33.240
you directly to the group and that my DearS, my darlings,

44
00:04:33.279 --> 00:04:43.720
my sweethearts made chuty kaboody biddy. Is that's done right?

45
00:04:46.160 --> 00:04:50.120
Someone asked me A few people have asked me if

46
00:04:50.160 --> 00:05:00.839
I would consider doing erotic hypnosis recordings. I don't know

47
00:05:00.839 --> 00:05:04.360
what you think about that. Yeah, a few people have

48
00:05:04.439 --> 00:05:09.839
actually contacted me over time saying that they don't necessarily

49
00:05:09.839 --> 00:05:13.680
always listen to my recordings for relaxation or for sleep.

50
00:05:15.879 --> 00:05:27.399
It's like, okay, anyway, Vikings, I'll be honest with you.

51
00:05:28.800 --> 00:05:32.439
I kind of ruddered out of ideas well, not ideas,

52
00:05:32.519 --> 00:05:38.519
and everyone have ideas, but just subjects for these Trivia Tuesday.

53
00:05:41.800 --> 00:05:47.879
But Vikings is today. If you have any particular ideas

54
00:05:47.920 --> 00:05:52.879
that I could do a Trivia Tuesday on a subject,

55
00:05:53.639 --> 00:05:57.959
then you know, let me know. There is a contact

56
00:05:58.040 --> 00:06:07.279
form on my website if you're right. So Vikings came

57
00:06:07.560 --> 00:06:11.920
from Scandinavia. Oh, I just want to just say I

58
00:06:12.000 --> 00:06:15.000
watched I think about three years ago, I watched the

59
00:06:15.079 --> 00:06:20.959
Vikings TV show like. I loved it. Honestly, I watched

60
00:06:21.360 --> 00:06:24.959
like every singular episode from the beginning to the end,

61
00:06:26.040 --> 00:06:32.839
absolutely loved it. Now, like all TV shows, no matter

62
00:06:32.879 --> 00:06:36.240
how good they are, they have a tendency I find

63
00:06:36.480 --> 00:06:49.040
of stretching out a little bit, you know, really yeah,

64
00:06:49.560 --> 00:06:55.000
starting to add a bit more filler. And this does

65
00:06:55.040 --> 00:06:58.160
that a little bit near the end. But it's okay,

66
00:06:59.439 --> 00:07:04.879
what dog in the background, That's fine. So I think

67
00:07:04.920 --> 00:07:06.839
I learned quite a lot about the Vikings, but I

68
00:07:06.879 --> 00:07:12.120
don't know how much of it was true. And I

69
00:07:12.120 --> 00:07:14.959
think it was made on the History Channel or they

70
00:07:15.959 --> 00:07:18.199
it was that was shown on the History Channel, So

71
00:07:18.800 --> 00:07:21.240
I don't know how much true there is. And I

72
00:07:21.279 --> 00:07:25.079
also do not know if these one hundred fascinating Viking

73
00:07:25.199 --> 00:07:32.120
facts are indeed facts. So, you know, try not to

74
00:07:32.120 --> 00:07:36.120
get into an argument of anyone, and never used the

75
00:07:36.160 --> 00:07:41.120
words but Jason said, so that won't hold any gravy.

76
00:07:41.560 --> 00:07:48.399
I'm afraid. So Vikings, I wouldn't even trust myself with

77
00:07:48.480 --> 00:07:52.199
a fact. I don't even believe my I don't even

78
00:07:52.199 --> 00:08:01.519
believe myself. Now, Vikings came from Scandinavia modern day Denmark,

79
00:08:02.000 --> 00:08:07.839
Norway and Sweden. So the Scandinavia not exists anymore then,

80
00:08:09.959 --> 00:08:13.639
I know Denmark and Norway and Sweden do was all

81
00:08:13.720 --> 00:08:17.959
just one place. See, I don't know these things. I

82
00:08:18.079 --> 00:08:29.519
wasn't around then. In old Norse, Viking originally meant pirate,

83
00:08:30.000 --> 00:08:38.440
raid or expedition. Now there was a TV show on Netflix,

84
00:08:38.519 --> 00:08:43.159
probably still on there, which makes fun of the Vikings,

85
00:08:45.240 --> 00:08:58.720
and we see funny Viking show Okay Norsemen, Certain Norsemen,

86
00:08:59.200 --> 00:09:07.159
nrs EM and on Netflix three seasons. I know comedy

87
00:09:07.200 --> 00:09:11.600
obviously is we've got our own idea what we like.

88
00:09:13.279 --> 00:09:18.159
But I found it very funny. However, at the same time,

89
00:09:18.320 --> 00:09:23.879
there's parts of it that are really horrible because they

90
00:09:24.039 --> 00:09:29.440
still try to stick to the to the real mythology

91
00:09:29.919 --> 00:09:38.879
of the Vikings lifestyle and behavior. But the dialogue is

92
00:09:39.279 --> 00:09:45.320
very funny. So it's worth watching if you like funny things,

93
00:09:45.360 --> 00:09:50.080
and maybe if you've not seen because this is something

94
00:09:50.159 --> 00:09:55.320
My friend Luke we didn't really have the same sense

95
00:09:55.360 --> 00:10:00.440
of comedy when it came to watching TV shows. I'm

96
00:10:00.519 --> 00:10:04.120
quite I'm a bit more wider. I like to I'm

97
00:10:04.120 --> 00:10:08.200
a bit more wider. That's that sounds weird. Yeah, I

98
00:10:08.320 --> 00:10:11.639
like all kinds of comedy. He was very much more

99
00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:16.840
into British comedy. What didn't really like American sitcoms. I've

100
00:10:16.840 --> 00:10:19.360
never understood that way of thinking, but you know, it's

101
00:10:19.440 --> 00:10:24.879
just how he was. So, which is fine. I like

102
00:10:25.000 --> 00:10:32.159
all kinds of comedy, so I like some stuff that

103
00:10:32.200 --> 00:10:35.279
he liked. But I said to him, you like this,

104
00:10:35.279 --> 00:10:39.399
this Viking, this Norseman, and I got it up. He

105
00:10:39.440 --> 00:10:40.960
was sitting there with me, and I got it up

106
00:10:40.960 --> 00:10:45.200
on the TV. This is like five years ago, four

107
00:10:45.279 --> 00:10:50.159
years ago, and easier. I said, it looks like a

108
00:10:50.200 --> 00:10:52.440
parlor crap to me. That's what he said, Like, now

109
00:10:52.440 --> 00:10:55.639
I'm watching that. I said, it's not American. He said,

110
00:10:56.360 --> 00:10:57.919
why have you got the idea that I don't like

111
00:10:57.960 --> 00:11:01.200
American comedy? I said, because you don't seem to like

112
00:11:01.240 --> 00:11:07.720
anything that's American. He said, well, I'd like only fools

113
00:11:07.720 --> 00:11:10.720
and horses. I said, yeah, which is not American. He

114
00:11:10.840 --> 00:11:15.120
said yeah. I didn't say it. Was really used to

115
00:11:15.120 --> 00:11:18.480
try and wine me up, and I just said, like, okay,

116
00:11:18.519 --> 00:11:26.320
well just watch it, just have it. Well. I showed

117
00:11:26.360 --> 00:11:28.720
them a little bit at the very beginning. It's a

118
00:11:28.720 --> 00:11:32.519
really funny bit. Even if it was just a sketch

119
00:11:33.279 --> 00:11:36.960
in a comedy show, it's funny. Because of the dialogue.

120
00:11:37.080 --> 00:11:39.440
I mean, I find it funny because of the dialogue,

121
00:11:39.840 --> 00:11:45.679
because it's just absurd and I love absurdity, and also

122
00:11:46.759 --> 00:11:55.480
almost introducing reality to a situation, which makes it kind

123
00:11:55.480 --> 00:11:58.159
of takes the blinkers off a bit, like, look at

124
00:11:58.200 --> 00:12:03.440
what we're doing. This is ridiculous. This is really really silly.

125
00:12:03.600 --> 00:12:09.639
So and he smiled, but he said, nah, I can't

126
00:12:09.679 --> 00:12:13.000
bother with that. I didn't see him for the weekend.

127
00:12:14.000 --> 00:12:17.000
It watched the whole two serieses of it over the weekend.

128
00:12:18.679 --> 00:12:21.960
He loved it, absolutely loved it, and he kept watching

129
00:12:21.960 --> 00:12:26.039
it back like over the years he was watching it.

130
00:12:26.679 --> 00:12:30.720
He absolutely loved it because it was it was funny, really,

131
00:12:30.759 --> 00:12:32.600
and he introduced all his friends to it, and none

132
00:12:32.600 --> 00:12:40.039
of them wanted to watch it is it's weird. It's

133
00:12:40.080 --> 00:12:42.639
like trying to get someone to like something that I like.

134
00:12:44.279 --> 00:12:46.720
I don't know why I even bother, really, because we

135
00:12:46.799 --> 00:12:51.200
all like our own things, don't we. However, I do.

136
00:12:51.799 --> 00:12:54.039
I don't want someone to tell me, oh, you've got

137
00:12:54.080 --> 00:12:57.080
to watch this, should watch this because this is brilliant.

138
00:12:58.279 --> 00:13:01.000
I don't mind people doing that. But in fact, I

139
00:13:01.120 --> 00:13:04.080
quite like that because I'm always looking for something new

140
00:13:04.120 --> 00:13:07.519
to sort of get addicted to when it comes to

141
00:13:07.600 --> 00:13:12.120
TV or movies and stuff. A TV show, you know

142
00:13:12.240 --> 00:13:14.440
something I can really get my teeth into and watch

143
00:13:14.679 --> 00:13:20.679
every single episode of all ten seasons or whatever. That

144
00:13:21.159 --> 00:13:24.879
to me, that gives me a lot of happiness, which

145
00:13:24.919 --> 00:13:29.080
is very strange, I think, but I get more from

146
00:13:29.120 --> 00:13:36.000
that than from being around people. It's almost like I've

147
00:13:36.000 --> 00:13:39.399
got something to look forward to. I get really into it.

148
00:13:41.039 --> 00:13:44.799
So he, I don't know, this is not funny. I

149
00:13:44.840 --> 00:13:46.919
was laughing for the sake of it. Hey, we should

150
00:13:47.039 --> 00:13:50.679
laugh laugh more. Come on, I had a girlfriend once.

151
00:13:51.399 --> 00:13:54.720
It's true. It's hard to believe I did. This is

152
00:13:54.799 --> 00:13:58.840
ten twenty years ago, and I was making a laugh.

153
00:13:59.039 --> 00:14:09.720
I'm quite quite funny, boyfriend, I would say, probably you're not.

154
00:14:09.919 --> 00:14:14.440
You might not wake up the next morning feeling physically

155
00:14:14.519 --> 00:14:19.559
and emotionally satisfied, but I will make you laugh. Okay,

156
00:14:19.679 --> 00:14:23.240
you won't feel fulfilled, but I will make you'll have

157
00:14:23.320 --> 00:14:27.000
a giggle, even if it's just me taking off my

158
00:14:28.399 --> 00:14:37.360
shirt or whatever, my gloves my Then he started to

159
00:14:37.399 --> 00:14:44.759
notice all the screaming out of the back. It sounds

160
00:14:44.799 --> 00:14:51.639
to me, which I hope it is, to be fair,

161
00:14:54.200 --> 00:14:56.840
it sounds like there's like kids having a party, probably

162
00:14:57.279 --> 00:14:59.559
in a garden over the over the road or whatever,

163
00:15:00.080 --> 00:15:02.559
and they're all like jumping into swimming pools and stuff

164
00:15:02.720 --> 00:15:05.440
like you know, paddling pool and they're having a great time.

165
00:15:05.519 --> 00:15:09.679
I hope that's why they're screaming, because sometimes it puts

166
00:15:09.720 --> 00:15:11.759
me on guard a little bit, like are they okay?

167
00:15:13.120 --> 00:15:17.000
So I'm hoping that's the reason, because you know, that's

168
00:15:17.000 --> 00:15:20.559
the thing. I try not to moan about hearing kids

169
00:15:20.559 --> 00:15:24.600
screaming being noisy, because I was the same. I was

170
00:15:24.639 --> 00:15:27.639
a kid once, believe it or not, and I had

171
00:15:27.799 --> 00:15:32.399
four bro by three brothers, so we made a lot

172
00:15:32.399 --> 00:15:37.399
of noise in that garden and I probably screamed a

173
00:15:37.440 --> 00:15:44.440
lot as well. I still do sometimes, especially there's a

174
00:15:44.480 --> 00:15:50.639
dog in the in the park called Minnie, and she's

175
00:15:50.639 --> 00:15:52.399
off the lead and she always runs up to me

176
00:15:52.440 --> 00:15:55.200
because she gets excited because I give her treats, so

177
00:15:55.200 --> 00:15:56.919
she runs up to me. But she does it from

178
00:15:56.919 --> 00:16:00.639
behind quite often, and I scream because just make me jump.

179
00:16:02.759 --> 00:16:07.559
The other day, I actually I came out of my

180
00:16:07.600 --> 00:16:11.519
front door because I was going to meet someone and

181
00:16:11.559 --> 00:16:16.679
they were already there. Honestly, Ah, what are you doing?

182
00:16:18.759 --> 00:16:22.919
And I said to man long you've been standing there,

183
00:16:23.240 --> 00:16:25.960
because he phoned me up and then I went, you know,

184
00:16:25.960 --> 00:16:28.960
I said, I'm on my way. I said, okay, I

185
00:16:29.000 --> 00:16:32.399
was going to meet him downstairs, and he said, no,

186
00:16:32.440 --> 00:16:34.679
I've just got it. And I thought, you're lying to me.

187
00:16:35.879 --> 00:16:39.559
You've just been standing there the whole time. But actually

188
00:16:39.600 --> 00:16:42.919
I looked on the camera and he literally just got

189
00:16:42.960 --> 00:16:48.799
to the front door as I opened it. Weird, I

190
00:16:48.919 --> 00:16:51.039
tell you what's stranger, which has got probably not so

191
00:16:51.120 --> 00:16:56.159
much to do with Vikings as you'd think. But I

192
00:16:56.240 --> 00:16:59.679
used to live in before while I was at college.

193
00:17:01.039 --> 00:17:03.919
There was this Yeah, I lived in this bungle. It

194
00:17:03.960 --> 00:17:06.960
was actually wasn't a bungle. I was a cottage and

195
00:17:07.480 --> 00:17:11.680
I lived downstairs in the kind of I guess it

196
00:17:11.799 --> 00:17:14.720
was some kind of extension that I lived in. But

197
00:17:14.799 --> 00:17:19.960
I lived in one of the rooms. And I moved

198
00:17:20.000 --> 00:17:25.319
in November two thousand and seven, and I moved out

199
00:17:25.440 --> 00:17:30.240
January two thy eleven. So I was there for over

200
00:17:30.319 --> 00:17:34.599
three years. Yeah, isn't it eight nine? So I was

201
00:17:34.640 --> 00:17:37.759
over over three years. I was there. No, was it

202
00:17:37.880 --> 00:17:43.319
January or was it January February March? Maybe April March

203
00:17:43.359 --> 00:18:07.000
April time twenty eleven and I was gonna say distracted

204
00:18:07.000 --> 00:18:11.599
by the sounds outside. Yes, I was there for three years.

205
00:18:11.720 --> 00:18:16.799
Over three years, I mean what November December January thirymone

206
00:18:16.880 --> 00:18:19.880
sow two and a quarter. Three and a quarty years

207
00:18:19.960 --> 00:18:25.880
is quite a long time. And the daughter that lived there,

208
00:18:26.519 --> 00:18:32.240
and she was blimey, probably thirty because I was what

209
00:18:32.799 --> 00:18:37.240
forty forty by tom I moved out, so she was

210
00:18:37.240 --> 00:18:41.039
probably about thirty, So I was like twenty seven thirty

211
00:18:41.079 --> 00:18:43.319
when I was thirty seven thirty eight thirty nine forty.

212
00:18:45.000 --> 00:18:49.599
And the amount of times that i'd walk in from

213
00:18:49.640 --> 00:18:52.960
the back that's where the where my room was in

214
00:18:53.000 --> 00:18:55.640
the bathroom, and i'd walk into the kitchen because I

215
00:18:55.680 --> 00:18:59.599
shared the kitchen with them, I'd walk in and she'd jump,

216
00:19:00.160 --> 00:19:01.839
or she'd walk into the room and i'd have my

217
00:19:01.920 --> 00:19:06.400
back tour just using the microwave or whatever, and she'd jump,

218
00:19:06.559 --> 00:19:12.680
but she like sort of scream, not screaming scream, but like, ah,

219
00:19:12.799 --> 00:19:16.160
it made me jump. I said, I've lived there for

220
00:19:16.160 --> 00:19:20.000
forty five years. Get used to me, man, Okay, I

221
00:19:20.000 --> 00:19:21.720
didn't say that, but I did say, look, I've lived

222
00:19:21.720 --> 00:19:24.480
there for years now, like two and a half years.

223
00:19:24.519 --> 00:19:28.319
Why are you still jumping when you see me, said,

224
00:19:28.359 --> 00:19:32.519
because you're naked. Now. She didn't say that, but she

225
00:19:32.680 --> 00:19:44.960
did constantly like jump. I don't know why, considering they

226
00:19:45.160 --> 00:19:50.920
had lodgers, I think for decades on and off, that

227
00:19:51.119 --> 00:19:53.039
was a little way of them making getting a little

228
00:19:53.039 --> 00:19:55.440
bit of money coming in. They had two rooms, and

229
00:19:55.480 --> 00:19:59.480
they only rented out to students generally, so I had

230
00:19:59.519 --> 00:20:04.279
that extra income coming in, which I imagine really helped

231
00:20:04.440 --> 00:20:07.680
quite a bit actually over the years, because what was

232
00:20:07.720 --> 00:20:12.160
I paying sixty five pounds a week? So it's one

233
00:20:12.240 --> 00:20:16.160
hundred and six one hundred and thirty pounds a week

234
00:20:16.200 --> 00:20:25.880
between the two rooms. So yeah, that's that's like sixty

235
00:20:25.920 --> 00:20:33.119
grand over ten year period, or you know, it's probably

236
00:20:33.200 --> 00:20:38.960
paid for, paid for holidays and stuff. I don't know.

237
00:20:39.319 --> 00:20:42.160
None of my business isn't really way, keep bath, do

238
00:20:42.279 --> 00:20:47.720
stop pass. I'm playing with my belly button. I shouldn't

239
00:20:47.720 --> 00:20:51.240
really tell you that, but I don't know why. I'm

240
00:20:51.279 --> 00:20:53.279
just amazed at some of the things i'd find down there.

241
00:20:55.319 --> 00:21:04.720
So but check that TV show out Norseman if you

242
00:21:04.759 --> 00:21:09.359
want to, or let me know if there's any really

243
00:21:09.640 --> 00:21:17.519
really good, like really good TV shows which have now

244
00:21:17.559 --> 00:21:21.920
completed that I can watch from start to finish. I've

245
00:21:21.920 --> 00:21:26.960
watched a lot, but I'm kind of in that midway

246
00:21:27.079 --> 00:21:31.079
now of like, well, I don't know what to watch next.

247
00:21:31.119 --> 00:21:34.920
And the last thing I really got into, I really

248
00:21:34.960 --> 00:21:42.680
got into was Silo, and there was only two series

249
00:21:42.759 --> 00:21:44.680
of that. I don't know if they're going to do

250
00:21:44.680 --> 00:21:50.519
another one, but I really got into that, and yeah,

251
00:21:51.000 --> 00:21:54.960
absolutely loved that show. I would have been much happier

252
00:21:54.960 --> 00:21:58.359
if there'd been six or eight series, so I could

253
00:21:58.400 --> 00:22:04.880
have watched the whole you know, from start to finish.

254
00:22:05.039 --> 00:22:16.599
But it's okay. Apparently here says they didn't usually call

255
00:22:16.759 --> 00:22:26.920
themselves Vikings. They identified by their homeland or clan. Okay,

256
00:22:27.559 --> 00:22:41.559
because Norse, I suppose, because it was Denmark, Norway. Norse

257
00:22:41.799 --> 00:22:43.480
is is Norway?

258
00:22:43.640 --> 00:22:43.920
Norse?

259
00:22:44.519 --> 00:22:46.519
Are you? Are you in Norse if you live in

260
00:22:46.559 --> 00:22:55.079
Norway or if you're born in Norway? Huh? So Vikings

261
00:22:57.759 --> 00:23:04.400
Viking may also relative fidge or vic, meaning bay or

262
00:23:04.799 --> 00:23:10.759
creek where ships anchored. I that's boring. Viking society included

263
00:23:10.880 --> 00:23:19.279
influences from Slavic and other neighboring cultures. I get the

264
00:23:19.319 --> 00:23:30.240
impression that, unlike the Romans, who seemed to just pretty

265
00:23:30.279 --> 00:23:35.079
much take over where they went, the Vikings would just

266
00:23:37.720 --> 00:23:41.359
visit temporarily, not all the time, but they just they'd

267
00:23:41.359 --> 00:23:45.640
be they'd take what they wanted and maybe stick around

268
00:23:45.680 --> 00:23:48.599
for a while and learn some new stuff and you know,

269
00:23:49.079 --> 00:23:54.200
introduce it to their own kind of way of life.

270
00:23:54.440 --> 00:23:57.480
And I'm talking about that without any knowledge or whatsoever

271
00:23:57.680 --> 00:24:06.079
about anything. Ships were clink built, clinker built planks overlapped

272
00:24:06.119 --> 00:24:11.559
for flexibility and strength. Does anyone know what the word

273
00:24:11.759 --> 00:24:22.119
clinker built means, because I don't. Long ships had shallow drafts,

274
00:24:23.440 --> 00:24:33.319
allowing beach landings and river travel anyone, No, okay, nur

275
00:24:33.400 --> 00:24:38.960
cargo ships could carry up to twenty four tons. This

276
00:24:39.440 --> 00:24:47.799
is very I know it's trivia, but this this seems

277
00:24:47.799 --> 00:24:55.279
to me like very factual. I'm getting bored reading it out.

278
00:24:57.839 --> 00:25:02.200
So here we go. Large long ships could carry sixty

279
00:25:02.319 --> 00:25:11.359
or more warriors. Ships ship types including skeeds andaz neck

280
00:25:11.400 --> 00:25:22.240
as snickers snickers for warfare. Famous finds include Gokstad and

281
00:25:22.839 --> 00:25:32.039
Osburgh ships. Dragonheads on ship prows were meant to intimidate

282
00:25:32.400 --> 00:25:38.240
enemies and ships with status symbols as much as a

283
00:25:38.359 --> 00:25:46.720
tool of war or trade. This none of this is funny.

284
00:25:47.079 --> 00:25:53.240
I wanted some funny stuff maybe there's nothing funny about this.

285
00:25:53.279 --> 00:26:01.640
See if I've got any other stuff at the other look,

286
00:26:02.599 --> 00:26:05.839
Viking may also derive from a term meaning sea mile

287
00:26:06.480 --> 00:26:10.799
or work related to ships. Okay, I want to change

288
00:26:10.839 --> 00:26:26.160
this right, Okay, well the internet doesn't anything like that.

289
00:26:26.519 --> 00:26:29.119
I said, find me some funny stuff, and it's not

290
00:26:33.759 --> 00:26:56.079
fair enough funny facts, right, Okay, Viking, this is what

291
00:26:56.200 --> 00:26:59.720
I want. These are ten funny and odd Viking facts.

292
00:27:00.200 --> 00:27:01.759
This is what I want, and I want to know

293
00:27:01.839 --> 00:27:09.559
about women could own property and divorce their husbands. So

294
00:27:09.640 --> 00:27:12.799
that's the vikings that wasn't even allowed in this country

295
00:27:12.920 --> 00:27:18.319
till about fifty years ago. That's crazy, isn't it? Just

296
00:27:18.400 --> 00:27:21.519
how slow we are? I mean, some Viking women traveled

297
00:27:21.519 --> 00:27:24.359
on raids or trades. They do have that. On the show,

298
00:27:27.920 --> 00:27:30.880
it seemed to be that there was two types of vikings.

299
00:27:30.920 --> 00:27:33.000
Just this is going to be me basing on why.

300
00:27:33.039 --> 00:27:42.279
I remember there was the farmers and the warriors. So

301
00:27:42.400 --> 00:27:45.000
the ones that had a farm, and that seemed to

302
00:27:45.039 --> 00:27:51.519
be the way to if you did really well, you'd

303
00:27:51.680 --> 00:27:56.759
get given a bit of land and you could you know,

304
00:27:57.079 --> 00:28:01.000
you could have a farm there and higher doing that,

305
00:28:01.640 --> 00:28:03.960
or maybe you'd be born into farming, and that's what

306
00:28:04.000 --> 00:28:09.759
you'd do. Children learned farming. Adoption was a common practice

307
00:28:09.799 --> 00:28:19.079
to strengthen alliances. I'm sure that they you should adopt

308
00:28:19.160 --> 00:28:28.079
from another other tribes or other people, so to sort

309
00:28:28.079 --> 00:28:36.400
of almost like marrying in to the you know, like France,

310
00:28:36.559 --> 00:28:43.920
the king of France marrying a princess of Germany or

311
00:28:43.960 --> 00:28:45.559
something like that. That kind of things that used to

312
00:28:45.599 --> 00:28:48.079
go on. I think it was a little bit like that,

313
00:28:48.200 --> 00:28:51.200
so it kind of kept the peace between them, so

314
00:28:51.359 --> 00:29:01.039
they would perhaps adopt. Wealth was measured in livestock as

315
00:29:01.079 --> 00:29:09.720
well as silver. Jewelry often served as currency, and they

316
00:29:09.799 --> 00:29:13.759
told epic poems to preserve history, which is why so

317
00:29:13.920 --> 00:29:19.400
much of it is probably lies made up. I love

318
00:29:19.480 --> 00:29:26.200
the way, do you know? So many of the most

319
00:29:28.559 --> 00:29:36.599
classed as the most important books and stuff in human

320
00:29:36.759 --> 00:29:43.759
society were from like thousands of years ago. And the

321
00:29:43.839 --> 00:29:48.119
books weren't written thousands of years ago. There were passed

322
00:29:48.160 --> 00:29:57.880
down verbally for thousands of years, and people take it

323
00:29:57.920 --> 00:30:04.039
as verbatim that it's correct. Yeah. If you put twelve

324
00:30:04.039 --> 00:30:09.039
people in a circle and whisper to each other something

325
00:30:10.079 --> 00:30:12.640
as they pass it on, you'll get a different message

326
00:30:12.640 --> 00:30:17.640
at the end of it. You know, it's a paragraph.

327
00:30:17.759 --> 00:30:24.960
Let's say, you know, not just like booby or hazel nuts.

328
00:30:25.279 --> 00:30:29.079
You know, it's it's you know that you could probably

329
00:30:29.119 --> 00:30:33.880
remember that. But if it was like an actual he

330
00:30:34.119 --> 00:30:39.400
had greener hair, and he came down from the mountain

331
00:30:40.319 --> 00:30:47.039
and he said everyone must now have green hair in

332
00:30:47.240 --> 00:30:56.799
order to be reborn as a fresh goblin. I don't know,

333
00:30:56.960 --> 00:31:00.359
something you know magical like that. And you just passed

334
00:31:00.359 --> 00:31:06.440
that on whether it's twelve I mean, you think, okay,

335
00:31:07.200 --> 00:31:13.440
one person, there's twelve people. One person equals what one

336
00:31:13.519 --> 00:31:19.519
hundred years in this in you know, one hundred years

337
00:31:20.480 --> 00:31:23.359
or one generation of person passing it down to the

338
00:31:23.359 --> 00:31:27.640
next generation. How many generations would there beef in two

339
00:31:27.640 --> 00:31:33.200
and a half thousand years? Quite a few. It's going

340
00:31:33.240 --> 00:31:35.000
to be something different. You're going to get a different

341
00:31:35.039 --> 00:31:39.359
story at the end of it. Hopefully maybe you'll get

342
00:31:39.359 --> 00:31:48.680
the same meaning of the story. I don't know. But

343
00:31:48.799 --> 00:31:54.279
things weren't written down. There wasn't anywhere they're taking notes

344
00:31:55.319 --> 00:31:57.640
like can you start Wait a minute, what did you

345
00:31:57.720 --> 00:32:02.039
just say? Could you say again? It's speaking too quick?

346
00:32:03.359 --> 00:32:09.440
It wasn't a typewriter. That'd be annoying, wouldn't it typewriters

347
00:32:09.440 --> 00:32:19.599
were so loud. The Viking Age ended around a ten

348
00:32:19.599 --> 00:32:28.920
to sixty six, marked by the Battle of Stamford Bridge. Kid, doak,

349
00:32:29.200 --> 00:32:31.480
all right, let's go back. Let's go and find some

350
00:32:32.680 --> 00:32:38.440
So Vikings bleached their beards green. Of course, I don't

351
00:32:38.440 --> 00:32:40.839
know if it's green not for fashion week, but to

352
00:32:41.000 --> 00:32:59.440
kill lice. Oh, all right, so they I suppose bleach

353
00:32:59.599 --> 00:33:03.920
is a bleacher disinfectant. I don't know. They used to

354
00:33:04.000 --> 00:33:13.599
name their swords. Okay, that's that makes sense, That isn't

355
00:33:13.640 --> 00:33:20.960
it camire pee wee, kamire pee wee. I suppose what

356
00:33:21.079 --> 00:33:24.799
kind of sword it is? I suppose EXCaliber. I don't

357
00:33:24.880 --> 00:33:27.920
understood why they named it EXCaliber, because I found that

358
00:33:27.960 --> 00:33:29.759
a difficult word to say when I was a kid

359
00:33:31.079 --> 00:33:34.079
and I realized the book, you know, the story of

360
00:33:35.880 --> 00:33:39.200
King whatever his name was, wasn't written just for me,

361
00:33:41.079 --> 00:33:46.720
King Charles. But come on, EXCaliber. It was a real mouthful.

362
00:33:46.839 --> 00:33:50.759
I can say it now. Perhaps I've always been able

363
00:33:50.799 --> 00:33:52.319
to say it. Maybe that wasn't the word I was

364
00:33:52.319 --> 00:34:01.920
thinking of. The saurus, the sort what that's a hard word.

365
00:34:02.839 --> 00:34:12.440
The theft hall it's a weird word. I don't know.

366
00:34:13.119 --> 00:34:16.800
Dick Sheery that's that's where do they come up with

367
00:34:16.880 --> 00:34:25.519
these words goat powered alarm systems. Farms, some tied sometimes

368
00:34:25.599 --> 00:34:29.599
tied goats near their house so that if raiders came

369
00:34:29.639 --> 00:34:35.440
at night, the goats would panic and bleat, effectively making

370
00:34:35.480 --> 00:34:40.599
them viking burglar alarms. Which is true, isn't it? Isn't

371
00:34:40.599 --> 00:34:48.840
that what people do when they're camping in a place

372
00:34:48.920 --> 00:34:53.000
where there's bears? Why would you? But hope some people

373
00:34:53.039 --> 00:34:56.599
would go camping in a place where there's wild bears

374
00:34:56.679 --> 00:35:00.880
roaming around? Why would you? I repeat again? And they

375
00:35:00.920 --> 00:35:06.000
put like bells and tins and stuff around the around

376
00:35:06.119 --> 00:35:11.039
the tent as if hearing it coming is going to

377
00:35:11.039 --> 00:35:18.000
help you in some way. I mean, why one more time? Why?

378
00:35:18.840 --> 00:35:22.440
Why would you? That's one of the good things about

379
00:35:22.480 --> 00:35:30.239
living in this country is we don't have bears. We

380
00:35:30.280 --> 00:35:37.880
don't have lions other than in the zoo. We don't

381
00:35:38.000 --> 00:35:43.000
have that stuff in the wild. I mean we do.

382
00:35:43.079 --> 00:35:47.039
I suppose there are there are wildcats that are probably well,

383
00:35:47.079 --> 00:35:51.760
there are a big bigger than the average. And I

384
00:35:51.800 --> 00:35:54.480
think it was parts of Scotland. Was it Wales? I

385
00:35:54.480 --> 00:35:59.079
think it was Scotland where the government were intending to

386
00:35:59.199 --> 00:36:08.119
reintroduce wolves. Okay, I didn't really understand. I mean, that's

387
00:36:08.239 --> 00:36:17.039
that's like, let's introduce poisonous snakes as well. What's why

388
00:36:17.519 --> 00:36:21.360
I mean this is a relatively safe country when it

389
00:36:21.440 --> 00:36:25.719
comes to wildlife. I think the only the only animals

390
00:36:25.760 --> 00:36:27.800
really got to be care a little bit careful of

391
00:36:28.000 --> 00:36:33.079
what probably a lot careful of is cattle, because they

392
00:36:33.119 --> 00:36:35.679
can be you know, if you're going through a field

393
00:36:35.719 --> 00:36:39.760
and there's a cow or bull or even a horse,

394
00:36:40.159 --> 00:36:45.400
and horses and cattle, but you know, if they decide

395
00:36:45.400 --> 00:36:49.599
they take a dislike to you being in there, in

396
00:36:49.719 --> 00:36:56.159
their home, in their place, then you know it's not

397
00:36:56.159 --> 00:36:59.079
not a great place, your situation for you to be in.

398
00:37:01.320 --> 00:37:03.480
I think I got chased by a ball once. I

399
00:37:03.480 --> 00:37:10.360
can't remember. Yeah, I think I was a little bit

400
00:37:10.360 --> 00:37:13.000
too fast through it though, and I was very close.

401
00:37:13.079 --> 00:37:15.880
I kind of climbed over the fence and I saw

402
00:37:15.960 --> 00:37:19.280
it and I claimed back. I claimed back, claimed, I

403
00:37:19.320 --> 00:37:23.840
climbed back over the fence again, and I'm not sure

404
00:37:23.880 --> 00:37:25.960
how fast I could move these days, but I was

405
00:37:25.960 --> 00:37:30.039
only a kid. And I went home and told everyone

406
00:37:30.079 --> 00:37:34.880
that I just won against a ball, and they came

407
00:37:34.960 --> 00:37:37.719
and saw it. Everyone was like excited to see this

408
00:37:37.920 --> 00:37:43.519
ball that I had defeated and turned out as a rabbit.

409
00:37:43.960 --> 00:37:48.840
But it doesn't matter, you know, still one. They used

410
00:37:49.039 --> 00:37:55.719
a poop based insult. No, I can't stand that kind

411
00:37:55.760 --> 00:38:02.280
of insulting people using poop based stuff. So in sagas,

412
00:38:03.039 --> 00:38:14.880
calling someone annoyingly cowardly was bad, but skit skit cast

413
00:38:16.159 --> 00:38:21.159
literally meaning throwing poop was worse. Yes, poo flinging was

414
00:38:21.199 --> 00:38:26.840
both a really a reality and an insult. They used

415
00:38:26.840 --> 00:38:31.360
to chuck pooh, who's poo there? Pooh? Did they have

416
00:38:31.400 --> 00:38:34.880
it already in a bag? Walk around the bangs a pooh?

417
00:38:35.559 --> 00:38:44.880
That's weird. God, they must have stunk. They had a

418
00:38:44.960 --> 00:38:52.760
game called natsu and the rules are unclear, but shoving, tackling,

419
00:38:52.800 --> 00:38:57.360
and accidentally bone breaking were apparently part of the part

420
00:38:57.400 --> 00:39:05.079
of it. Basically Viking rugby rugby without a ball what

421
00:39:06.000 --> 00:39:14.599
basically a fight really, And they loved combs about any Vikings.

422
00:39:15.760 --> 00:39:22.480
Archaeologists keep finding combs in Viking graves, suggesting that grooming

423
00:39:22.760 --> 00:39:30.920
was serious business. So I suppose I mean I had

424
00:39:30.960 --> 00:39:34.480
long hair. I used to have long hair. A comb

425
00:39:34.599 --> 00:39:37.880
was almost impossible for me to put through it. I

426
00:39:38.000 --> 00:39:40.199
used a brush, but putting a comb through My hair

427
00:39:40.360 --> 00:39:45.039
was very because I had such curly hair. If they

428
00:39:45.079 --> 00:39:48.960
had fine hair, although I suppose when the hair is

429
00:39:48.960 --> 00:39:50.960
wet it's easier for the comb to go through, But

430
00:39:53.760 --> 00:39:56.639
quite often what I'd have to do is I'd have

431
00:39:56.719 --> 00:40:01.599
to crunch up my hair and put comb through the end,

432
00:40:02.400 --> 00:40:06.519
you know, so that it didn't pull on the roots

433
00:40:07.239 --> 00:40:17.039
and it didn't hurt. One saga tells of a berserker

434
00:40:17.719 --> 00:40:27.519
berserker deserter or berserker berserker biting his own shield, supposedly

435
00:40:27.599 --> 00:40:33.880
to psych himself up. I don't know. I mean, the

436
00:40:33.920 --> 00:40:36.039
shields are pretty made of wood, weren't they not metal.

437
00:40:37.880 --> 00:40:42.280
I tell you what I noticed when I was at school. Now,

438
00:40:42.400 --> 00:40:44.519
oh yeah, when I was a kid, went into some

439
00:40:44.599 --> 00:40:50.760
of these places to see Vikings, the Normans, the Romans,

440
00:40:51.119 --> 00:40:59.079
the various different people that basically raided and invaded my

441
00:40:59.239 --> 00:41:03.719
country over history. Lots and lots of places, lots and

442
00:41:03.760 --> 00:41:06.320
lots of people. And I actually live in a Roman,

443
00:41:07.239 --> 00:41:10.519
a Roman town. This was this used to be the

444
00:41:10.559 --> 00:41:14.280
capital of the country. This town, well, this is now

445
00:41:14.320 --> 00:41:22.840
a city. But there's no difference when they I get

446
00:41:22.840 --> 00:41:26.440
the words out in a minute, when the government decide

447
00:41:27.960 --> 00:41:33.000
a town is a city, do you know what happens nothing,

448
00:41:34.400 --> 00:41:46.320
Nothing happens nothing at all. It makes no difference. I

449
00:41:46.360 --> 00:41:49.920
don't know if they do it based on the amount

450
00:41:49.960 --> 00:41:55.599
of people that live there. But there's a big difference

451
00:41:55.760 --> 00:42:03.400
between cities in this country. So there's one big city

452
00:42:04.239 --> 00:42:08.000
in the hole of this country, and that's London. There's

453
00:42:08.119 --> 00:42:13.199
lots of other cities, but that's you know, no other

454
00:42:13.280 --> 00:42:17.360
city has what London has. I'm not saying it's better

455
00:42:17.360 --> 00:42:20.079
than anywhere else because obviously it's not. Because I know

456
00:42:20.199 --> 00:42:23.400
for a fact that so many of my listeners are

457
00:42:23.400 --> 00:42:26.119
from other parts of the country. So and I love

458
00:42:26.199 --> 00:42:30.199
you and live is so much. Especially in fact, I'm

459
00:42:30.199 --> 00:42:32.079
going to do this. I'm just going to have a

460
00:42:32.119 --> 00:42:37.840
quick stat statistic break. Okay, you might think, oh, but

461
00:42:37.960 --> 00:42:42.239
don't worry about it, stop moaning. Right, look at this

462
00:42:42.440 --> 00:42:51.039
right geolocation, United Kingdom, just the last thirty days Newcastle

463
00:42:51.119 --> 00:42:56.760
upon Tyne five hundred and fifty four downloads just in

464
00:42:56.800 --> 00:43:01.119
the last thirty days from Newcastle upon Tyne five hundred

465
00:43:01.119 --> 00:43:04.239
and forty seven, in Bristol one hundred and eighty six

466
00:43:04.320 --> 00:43:10.880
in Birmingham, London eighty two. So you know, I'm definitely

467
00:43:10.920 --> 00:43:15.679
not sort of like all London's so great, even though

468
00:43:15.719 --> 00:43:17.639
I did live there for twelve years when I was

469
00:43:17.679 --> 00:43:22.639
born there. But I'm not saying that because Bristol is

470
00:43:22.679 --> 00:43:30.679
also a city, as is Birmingham, as is Leeds, as

471
00:43:30.760 --> 00:43:37.480
is Nottingham, as is a hull I think. And where

472
00:43:37.519 --> 00:43:46.320
else have we got a city? For some reason? Manchester's

473
00:43:46.400 --> 00:43:50.079
not on here. No one in Manchester likes me. I'm

474
00:43:50.119 --> 00:43:53.639
mupset about that. Just love me. I just want to

475
00:43:53.639 --> 00:43:59.280
be loved. Can you love me? Manchester? No one in

476
00:43:59.320 --> 00:44:05.800
Manchester listens to my recordings according to this, that's weird.

477
00:44:07.000 --> 00:44:10.679
Southampton that's a city as well. I think Chester. I

478
00:44:10.679 --> 00:44:15.480
think that's a city. Chiswick Bolton. Bolton's a city, isn't it.

479
00:44:17.760 --> 00:44:20.239
Actually I've got people in London. It's just different parts

480
00:44:20.239 --> 00:44:27.559
of London, so Hackney, Greenwich, Newham, Camden, so there's quite

481
00:44:27.599 --> 00:44:30.119
a few parts of London that people are listening to me.

482
00:44:30.239 --> 00:44:34.880
Wembley that's one of my biggest Yeah, So it's just

483
00:44:35.440 --> 00:44:37.320
I don't know why it's got London on its own.

484
00:44:38.079 --> 00:44:41.280
I guess that must be the city of London. Maybe

485
00:44:41.719 --> 00:44:48.800
I don't know. Scotland my biggest place listener is Glasgow,

486
00:44:49.719 --> 00:44:55.880
so who in Newcastle, listens to me, Send me some messages.

487
00:44:55.920 --> 00:44:59.119
Come on, give me some messages, some comments. You don't

488
00:44:59.159 --> 00:45:01.320
have to post them on We don't have to do anything,

489
00:45:01.360 --> 00:45:05.159
but you can post them on my website if you want.

490
00:45:05.320 --> 00:45:10.440

513
00:47:36.360 --> 00:47:39.440
I've got a visit because you know, I'm going to

514
00:47:39.519 --> 00:47:41.920
be going there from a place where we don't have

515
00:47:42.039 --> 00:47:45.119
any protection. Here, we don't have any guns or anything,

516
00:47:45.119 --> 00:47:46.880
and I'll be going to a place we have lots

517
00:47:46.920 --> 00:47:50.559
of guns. I want to I need someone that can

518
00:47:52.599 --> 00:47:59.920
be my bodyguard. We've got Maryland, got Potter mac any

520
00:48:04.639 --> 00:48:13.320
Oh so wow? Where else? Utah, Florida? I thought California

521
00:48:13.360 --> 00:48:19.199
was Florida. That just shows how ignorant I am, doesn't it.

522
00:48:19.320 --> 00:48:24.280
My ignorance astonishes me. I don't know what to do

523
00:48:24.320 --> 00:48:33.519

557
00:52:15.400 --> 00:52:21.840
I'm mentioning, give me a cheer. Yay. I just find

558
00:52:21.880 --> 00:52:26.280
it interesting where people are from. What other country? Should

559
00:52:26.239 --> 00:52:29.239
just go to a different country. Now let's go to

560
00:52:30.480 --> 00:52:33.960
So the United States, I get the most listens. Then

561
00:52:34.440 --> 00:52:43.960
United Kingdom. Then Australia, so Victoria, Victoria is Melbourne, I

562
00:52:44.000 --> 00:52:51.079
get the most in Victoria, New South Wales. Sydney, also

563
00:52:51.159 --> 00:52:57.239
got Central Coast, Albury, etc. Queensland. I got Brisbane, which

564
00:52:57.280 --> 00:53:02.440
is the most place people listens. You've got Rosalie Plain,

565
00:53:02.559 --> 00:53:10.079
the Sunshine Coast, Sad Australia, Adelaide, that's the most. There

566
00:53:10.159 --> 00:53:20.920
in Tasmania is Hobart and Launceston, Launston and then Western Australia.

567
00:53:21.119 --> 00:53:27.400
Perth is the main one. Okay cool. So after that

568
00:53:27.440 --> 00:53:35.079
we've got Canada, Ontario, so Toronto. If you're in Canada,

569
00:53:35.800 --> 00:53:37.880
give me a shout out, maybe send me a message.

570
00:53:39.119 --> 00:53:43.519
That's yeah, that's the most listened place. It's in Toronto.

571
00:53:44.159 --> 00:53:52.079
Then you've got Hamilton, Picker in Saint Thomas, Baden, Niagara Falls.

572
00:53:52.639 --> 00:53:55.679
I thought Niagara Falls, that's loud, wasn't it. I thought

573
00:53:55.760 --> 00:53:59.679
Niagara Falls and in America? Is this a genuine question?

574
00:54:00.679 --> 00:54:05.159
Does Niagara Falls kind of meet with America? Is that

575
00:54:05.239 --> 00:54:08.920
kind of where you just you can walk through and

576
00:54:09.079 --> 00:54:11.280
go to Niagara Falls, but it's part of America and

577
00:54:11.360 --> 00:54:14.159
part of Canada. It's kind of like always in a

578
00:54:14.199 --> 00:54:18.239
completely different place. And the reason I asked that is

579
00:54:18.280 --> 00:54:27.760
because my only real experience of Niagara Falls was the

580
00:54:27.800 --> 00:54:30.360
Superman movie. I don't know if it was the first

581
00:54:30.400 --> 00:54:31.840
one or the second one. I think it was the

582
00:54:31.880 --> 00:54:37.880
first one, the very first Superman movie and with Christopher

583
00:54:37.880 --> 00:54:44.400
Eve yeah and the and yeah, so they were at

584
00:54:44.480 --> 00:54:50.840
Niagara Falls. Now. I just assumed that at the time,

585
00:54:50.920 --> 00:54:54.079
because you know, it's only it's only a youngster. At

586
00:54:54.079 --> 00:54:57.239
the time, I assumed it was in America, And then

587
00:54:58.639 --> 00:55:04.400
just now I realized I've and I was in Canada.

588
00:55:04.480 --> 00:55:06.719
I don't know, I didn't. I'm not saying I've always

589
00:55:06.719 --> 00:55:11.119
thought it was in America, but I did. I kind

590
00:55:11.159 --> 00:55:13.559
of knew where it was now. But I just wonder

591
00:55:13.559 --> 00:55:20.719
if it's kind of on the threshold, because like in Scotland,

592
00:55:22.159 --> 00:55:25.840
it's so you've got whales and you've got other parts,

593
00:55:26.280 --> 00:55:28.960
so I'll give you an example or ant have I

594
00:55:29.079 --> 00:55:35.960
done all the I just go British Columbia, Campbell River, Okay,

595
00:55:36.119 --> 00:55:40.039
I know quite a few others. Alberta, Calgary. So if

596
00:55:40.039 --> 00:55:46.119
you're in Alberta anywhere, Quebec, Wow, Montreal, I've got people

597
00:55:46.159 --> 00:55:50.440
listening in Montreal. Hey. Loads of place honestly, hundreds and

598
00:55:50.599 --> 00:55:53.719
hundreds and hundreds of different places where people are listening

599
00:55:53.760 --> 00:56:02.519
to me. From Winnpeggy, Winnipeg, New Brunswick, ed Minston, sas

600
00:56:03.079 --> 00:56:10.480
get Chill Sets, sas gat Chew One. Wasn't there a

601
00:56:10.480 --> 00:56:16.000
place called set Sketcher one in America? I'm thinking there was.

602
00:56:17.719 --> 00:56:22.840
I really am thinking there was. So I'm thinking, oh, okay,

603
00:56:22.960 --> 00:56:30.679
that's confusing. New Brunswick, Edmondston, Saint John, Okay, sech Squtch.

604
00:56:33.320 --> 00:56:43.719
See that's confusing, right, so New Brunswick. So let's let's

605
00:56:43.760 --> 00:56:44.880
sketch Okay, right?

606
00:56:45.159 --> 00:56:45.360
Yeah?

607
00:56:47.239 --> 00:57:00.360
Where did I see set Scratchelan, Quebec, No, Winnipeg, are

608
00:57:00.480 --> 00:57:06.519
getting confused now? So in yeah, in Scotland, there's a

609
00:57:06.559 --> 00:57:11.400
part known Wales. Sorry, there's a part which is kind

610
00:57:11.440 --> 00:57:17.280
of English and Wales. There's like places that are just

611
00:57:17.480 --> 00:57:22.599
kind of on the border because because we were tiny

612
00:57:22.639 --> 00:57:25.199
in this country. We were a tiny little country, tiny

613
00:57:25.239 --> 00:57:28.519
little island. Can't call ourself a country, can we? But

614
00:57:29.119 --> 00:57:32.239
England's a country, Scotland's a country, Wales is a country,

615
00:57:33.320 --> 00:57:40.199
Northern Ireland and quite a few other islands and stuff

616
00:57:40.239 --> 00:57:49.800
all part of the UK. So but we're a little island.

617
00:57:50.920 --> 00:57:56.360
And so the border is almost invisible between Scotland and Wales,

618
00:57:56.679 --> 00:57:59.880
or Scotland and England, and then England and Wales. It's

619
00:58:00.239 --> 00:58:03.719
it's I mean, borders were invisible, weren't they really generally

620
00:58:04.679 --> 00:58:08.000
unless you've got a big war. We're going to build

621
00:58:08.000 --> 00:58:15.920
a big wall, unless you've got a big war. It's yeah,

622
00:58:16.519 --> 00:58:23.840
strange what we're doing. Okay, So that's I mean. Also,

623
00:58:24.039 --> 00:58:28.679
it's not just there. I've got Canada, I've got Malta, Ireland.

624
00:58:28.920 --> 00:58:34.239
Malta's the one, two, three fourth. Malta is my fourth

625
00:58:34.320 --> 00:58:39.800
most listened to. So people in Malta listen to me.

626
00:58:41.320 --> 00:58:52.920
Jazira Jazeera. It's Jazeira wow. Okay, So hello anyone in Malta,

627
00:58:53.519 --> 00:59:02.199

629
00:59:19.119 --> 00:59:23.360
loads of people in France are listening to me. That's

630
00:59:23.679 --> 00:59:31.639
it's like I guess, I mean literally Paris, there's so

631
00:59:31.880 --> 00:59:36.159
many people. I'm not saying this to Bragg, although I'm

632
00:59:36.239 --> 00:59:39.440
quite pleasing myself today for some reason. And if nothing else,

633
00:59:39.480 --> 00:59:43.159
I've got quite my I've emptied most of my belly

634
00:59:43.239 --> 00:59:48.239
button during this recorded. That's just wrong. I haven't. I've

635
00:59:48.320 --> 00:59:55.039
left some in there. Stockholm County, Sweden, so I got loads,

636
00:59:55.239 --> 00:59:57.800
quite a few places in Sweden where people listen to me.

637
00:59:59.440 --> 01:00:07.599
Denmark you got just checher So anyone that's in Chechier,

638
01:00:07.719 --> 01:00:14.599
especially Prague. Hello, if you're listening, thank you for listening.

639
01:00:14.840 --> 01:00:19.760
Thank you to everyone for listening. New Zealand used to

640
01:00:19.840 --> 01:00:22.719
be like fourth on the list. It used to be.

641
01:00:24.239 --> 01:00:25.960
I'm sort of over the years. I mean I'm doing

642
01:00:25.960 --> 01:00:28.679
this nearly twenty years now, but over it used to

643
01:00:28.760 --> 01:00:33.639
be kind of. America's always been at the top. They've

644
01:00:33.639 --> 01:00:36.519
always been the most because it's I mean, it's a

645
01:00:36.639 --> 01:00:43.000
much bigger country, especially English speaking country, out of everywhere else,

646
01:00:43.199 --> 01:00:46.400
Like as far as population goes, I know Canada is

647
01:00:46.400 --> 01:00:51.480
a bigger country, but population wise, America's got what three

648
01:00:51.880 --> 01:00:55.480
sixty three hundred and sixty million. We've got about seventy

649
01:00:55.519 --> 01:00:59.159
odd million here. Canada's got a thing about forty million.

650
01:01:00.800 --> 01:01:06.360
I might be wrong on that one, but it's Australia

651
01:01:06.559 --> 01:01:18.679
probably what sixty million? New Zealand I guess. I don't

652
01:01:18.719 --> 01:01:20.960
know how many people in New Zealand, But New Zealand

653
01:01:21.079 --> 01:01:26.119
used to be like fourth because it was predominantly English

654
01:01:26.159 --> 01:01:29.400
speaking countries that would be listening to me or watching

655
01:01:29.480 --> 01:01:32.559
me on YouTube. But I think it's really groovy that

656
01:01:34.519 --> 01:01:38.800
people from other countries are actually learning English so they

657
01:01:38.840 --> 01:01:46.159
can listen to me. So that's devotion that people from

658
01:01:46.199 --> 01:01:50.800
all over the world have learned a completely different language

659
01:01:51.360 --> 01:01:55.079
just so they could listen to me. And that's amazing,

660
01:01:56.320 --> 01:02:04.079
isn't it. Oh dear, do you fit anyone actually believes that?

661
01:02:04.199 --> 01:02:09.440
I believe that, but that I really I do appreciate

662
01:02:10.440 --> 01:02:14.159
everyone who listens. Genuinely, I got bored of the Viking stuff.

663
01:02:14.199 --> 01:02:17.280
I'm sorry it was there wasn't a lot coming up

664
01:02:17.320 --> 01:02:26.920
with that. Dubai or United Arab Emirates, So so you've

665
01:02:26.920 --> 01:02:32.679
got Dubai. So if you're in Dubai, Hello, Hi Abu Dhabi.

666
01:02:32.840 --> 01:02:35.599
I'd like to come visit Dubai. I have actually visited once,

667
01:02:36.159 --> 01:02:38.760
but only got as far as the airport because it

668
01:02:38.880 --> 01:02:44.719
was a stopover. I mean, legally I wasn't allowed out

669
01:02:44.760 --> 01:02:47.119
of the airport, so I wasn't going to be getting out.

670
01:02:47.159 --> 01:02:52.360
But it's I don't think. I don't know. If you

671
01:02:52.440 --> 01:02:54.840
get to a stopover at an airport, Let's say you're

672
01:02:54.880 --> 01:03:00.320
on the way to Thailand from England and you're stop

673
01:03:00.400 --> 01:03:05.039
over and you stop off at Sweden, for example, or Dubai,

674
01:03:06.800 --> 01:03:11.559
if you ask permission and say I've decided to I

675
01:03:11.679 --> 01:03:14.239
want to stay here for a bit and get in

676
01:03:14.360 --> 01:03:18.880
a hotel, and I want to sort of perhaps travel

677
01:03:18.920 --> 01:03:23.000
around Sweden and because I've heard that it's an amazing place,

678
01:03:23.199 --> 01:03:27.840
or I want to stop and hang around in Dubai

679
01:03:28.000 --> 01:03:33.920
and meet the amazing people there. Whatever, would they allow it?

680
01:03:37.000 --> 01:03:42.599
I don't know. I suppose it depends upon visas, doesn't it.

681
01:03:43.280 --> 01:03:49.920
I wonder if anyone's ever done that. I wonder if

682
01:03:49.960 --> 01:03:53.719
you could just walk out, because if you didn't have

683
01:03:54.159 --> 01:03:57.440
any if all you had was your hand luggage, which

684
01:03:57.480 --> 01:03:59.440
is what I do. I don't take luggage on it

685
01:04:00.079 --> 01:04:02.400
on a plane, I just take my hand luggage. So

686
01:04:02.559 --> 01:04:07.239
if you've all only got your hand luggage. Then I

687
01:04:07.360 --> 01:04:12.119
wonder if you could just leave the airport and just

688
01:04:14.480 --> 01:04:16.559
I don't know, just go go and have a look

689
01:04:16.599 --> 01:04:21.920
around that way. Because on the way back from Thailand,

690
01:04:22.079 --> 01:04:28.960
like many years back, the stopover coming back was Sweden. Yeah,

691
01:04:29.000 --> 01:04:34.760
what's Sweden? And it's really I've never seen so many

692
01:04:34.800 --> 01:04:39.039
blonde people before. It was really weird. It's like just

693
01:04:40.559 --> 01:04:45.039
we have blonde people in England, but they don't normally congregate.

694
01:04:47.320 --> 01:04:52.320
We keep them apart. No, we don't. It was just weird,

695
01:04:52.440 --> 01:04:55.199
Like every single person that worked in that I saw

696
01:04:55.239 --> 01:04:58.920
in the airport, very small airport. There were the bit

697
01:04:58.960 --> 01:05:05.239
that I was in all blonde. It was like, wow,

698
01:05:07.559 --> 01:05:10.760
So I haven't I'm not sure if I've really met

699
01:05:10.840 --> 01:05:15.280
many Swedish people. I probably haven't met a couple. I've

700
01:05:15.320 --> 01:05:18.639
met a lot of people from different countries. This is

701
01:05:18.679 --> 01:05:21.679
when I lived in London. I've met people from pretty

702
01:05:21.760 --> 01:05:23.639
much every country in the world. I reckon at some

703
01:05:23.760 --> 01:05:28.800
point and worked with them as well, because I've you know,

704
01:05:28.880 --> 01:05:31.440
I had so many different jobs over the years, so

705
01:05:31.519 --> 01:05:39.639
I've worked with people from every every everywhere, even if

706
01:05:39.679 --> 01:05:45.719
it was just for a day, I don't remember. And

707
01:05:45.760 --> 01:05:48.280
I've dated quite a few people a long time ago,

708
01:05:48.440 --> 01:05:57.000
but they were people from ladies from I think let's

709
01:05:57.000 --> 01:06:02.400
have a look countries of our dated women, ladies from

710
01:06:02.519 --> 01:06:08.440
when I was a younger man. The United Kingdom. Never

711
01:06:08.559 --> 01:06:11.280
dated anyone from Australia, although I did kind of go

712
01:06:11.400 --> 01:06:13.400
on a date with someone from Australia, but that was

713
01:06:13.719 --> 01:06:21.320
as far as it got. Not Canada, not Malta, Ireland

714
01:06:21.400 --> 01:06:25.559
to date someone from Ireland. Never dated anyone from France

715
01:06:26.519 --> 01:06:32.039
or Sweden, Denmark. I did, Chechia, I don't think so

716
01:06:33.320 --> 01:06:39.639
New Zealand. No, United Arab Emirates. No. Spain kind of

717
01:06:39.719 --> 01:06:44.239
dated a lady from Spain in the nineties. Norway yes,

718
01:06:46.760 --> 01:06:50.079
Russia No, but I had a couple of quite good

719
01:06:50.159 --> 01:06:51.079
friends from Russia.

720
01:06:52.199 --> 01:06:54.199
A man and he was a.

721
01:06:54.199 --> 01:06:58.840
Professor, he was a psychiatrist, and his wife and they

722
01:06:58.920 --> 01:07:00.800
came over and they were working in the comedy club,

723
01:07:00.960 --> 01:07:05.920
just waitering and stuff. And I've gone really well with them,

724
01:07:06.000 --> 01:07:14.480
like really well lovely people, and I was supposed to

725
01:07:14.599 --> 01:07:18.199
visit them, but just never got around to it. Greece.

726
01:07:20.039 --> 01:07:24.159
I kind of dated someone that was from Greece once.

727
01:07:24.840 --> 01:07:32.519
Germany yeap dated someone from Germany. Mexico, not that I

728
01:07:32.599 --> 01:07:41.719
know of, and I don't think so. No South Korea, No, Israel, No,

729
01:07:42.079 --> 01:07:46.559
I don't think so, Japan, No, South Africa.

730
01:07:47.159 --> 01:07:57.199
Yes, Nyan, Ma, Nian Mar.

731
01:07:59.079 --> 01:08:01.559
What did that used to be it? I used to

732
01:08:01.599 --> 01:08:04.239
have a different name, didn't it. I don't know what.

733
01:08:04.519 --> 01:08:16.399
I'm confused now. Algeria, I don't think so. I'm not sure. Malaysia, No, Thailand. Yeah.

734
01:08:21.640 --> 01:08:24.600
The thing is I know that people there are people

735
01:08:24.680 --> 01:08:29.960
listening right now that are living in China. So everyone

736
01:08:30.119 --> 01:08:34.000
say hi, it's a big shout out if you're from China.

737
01:08:34.600 --> 01:08:36.560
Now it's not going to be listened on here because

738
01:08:38.439 --> 01:08:40.880
the only way people from China can listen to me

739
01:08:41.600 --> 01:08:45.119
is by using a one of those what I don't

740
01:08:45.159 --> 01:08:50.920
know what they call them DNS things, which is a DNS.

741
01:08:52.159 --> 01:08:53.680
It basically allows.

742
01:08:53.359 --> 01:08:53.640
You to.

743
01:08:58.000 --> 01:09:02.640
Use the Internet and put in it makes it out

744
01:09:02.680 --> 01:09:07.439
that you're from a different country. Yeah, because I think

745
01:09:07.640 --> 01:09:12.760
the well, clearly Russian don't have an issue. Their internet's fine.

746
01:09:13.119 --> 01:09:15.119
I've got people from all over Russia listening to me.

747
01:09:15.720 --> 01:09:20.199
But I think China their internet doesn't. I've been told that.

748
01:09:20.359 --> 01:09:23.039
I've actually had people contact and tell me that they

749
01:09:23.159 --> 01:09:29.239
listen through a what's it called. It's like an Internet

750
01:09:29.359 --> 01:09:33.600
thing where you change it so it looks like you're

751
01:09:35.920 --> 01:09:41.039
based in America or in Canada or somewhere, which means

752
01:09:41.079 --> 01:09:44.920
then you can view stuff in America or in the UK,

753
01:09:45.680 --> 01:09:48.359
or maybe they're put down there in London and they

754
01:09:48.439 --> 01:09:52.800
can then listen to my recordings. It just feels nice

755
01:09:52.840 --> 01:09:56.000
that people are going to all that effort in order

756
01:09:56.079 --> 01:10:01.079
to listen to me. So I appreciate. I'm not sure

757
01:10:01.119 --> 01:10:04.960
if there is anyone, but yeah, I do appreciate anyone

758
01:10:05.279 --> 01:10:11.159
that's listening to me. It's been a while since I

759
01:10:11.239 --> 01:10:17.560
did the stats. I'm quite excited by it. Well, I

760
01:10:17.680 --> 01:10:23.039
don't what I haven't done though, is SoundCloud see that

761
01:10:23.319 --> 01:10:27.279
I've done the speaker stats. I don't know what the

762
01:10:27.359 --> 01:10:30.119
stats are on my website because I don't get stats

763
01:10:30.159 --> 01:10:37.560
on there for some reason. And but the stats for

764
01:10:38.479 --> 01:10:47.199
my website of my SoundCloud sorry, if I look at

765
01:10:47.239 --> 01:10:53.439
the top locations, Melbourne, the countries, United States of America

766
01:10:53.600 --> 01:10:59.479
is number one. This is on my SoundCloud thing. Australia's

767
01:10:59.560 --> 01:11:06.520
number two, two, then United Kingdom's number three, Germany, Canada, Mexico,

768
01:11:07.640 --> 01:11:22.960
Czech Republic, Philippines, New Zealand, Singapore, Spain, France, India, Ukraine, Netherlands, Micronesia,

769
01:11:23.680 --> 01:11:39.439
Federal States of Portugal, Vietnam, Italy, Japan, Turkey, Ethiopia, Belgium, Norway, Brazil,

770
01:11:40.520 --> 01:12:09.279
Hong Kong, Kosovo, Egypt, Russian Russian Federation, Ireland, Georgia, Sweden, Morocco, Kuwait, Panama, Israel, Indonesia, Iraq, Lithuania, Lithuania, Chile, Soudan, Mongolia, Latvia,

771
01:12:10.520 --> 01:12:18.800
Lao People's Democratic Republic, Poland, South Africa, Taiwan, Province of China.

772
01:12:18.960 --> 01:12:29.239
All look virgin Ireland's US, Greece and the top. I mean,

773
01:12:29.279 --> 01:12:34.600
this is like the last thirty days. So if I

774
01:12:34.720 --> 01:12:40.079
go for the top, one's Melbourne, I'm going to guess Molly.

775
01:12:40.479 --> 01:12:43.800
There's Molly. Molly, do you live in Melbourne? Molly. Molly's

776
01:12:43.840 --> 01:12:47.439
the boss of the Facebook group Jason Newland's bowling group.

777
01:12:50.000 --> 01:12:52.840
This is turned into a real chat, hasn't it. It's

778
01:12:52.880 --> 01:12:57.720
been quite nice, just a real chit chat. I know,

779
01:12:57.880 --> 01:13:01.039
you know, it started off all let's all talk about vikings,

780
01:13:01.119 --> 01:13:05.680
and I know you've probably really excited, like, oh, you

781
01:13:05.800 --> 01:13:08.119
waited your whole life to hear me talk about vikings,

782
01:13:08.199 --> 01:13:11.439
but I don't know. And then I moved into stats,

783
01:13:11.560 --> 01:13:16.479
and then but I think it's been a bit more interactive.

784
01:13:18.119 --> 01:13:21.159
I feel like I've included you instead of just talking

785
01:13:21.239 --> 01:13:24.960
at you. Maybe I haven't. Maybe it's all in my mind,

786
01:13:25.600 --> 01:13:31.199
like so many other things. Melbourne. So I think Molly.

787
01:13:35.119 --> 01:13:38.199
But it won't just be Molly, because there's been way

788
01:13:38.279 --> 01:13:46.840
too many Unless Molly is playing my recordings continuously twenty

789
01:13:46.880 --> 01:13:57.279
four hours a day on about fifty different mechanical things,

790
01:13:57.399 --> 01:14:00.239
you know, then it wouldn't just be Molly. But I'm

791
01:14:00.279 --> 01:14:04.119
thinking that seems to be the top. So Melbourne. These

792
01:14:04.159 --> 01:14:10.359
are the cities Boardman, Phoenix, the Boardman's seconds in America,

793
01:14:10.840 --> 01:14:21.800
Phoenix's third, Chicago's fourth, falcon Stein which is Germany. That

794
01:14:22.000 --> 01:14:28.560
might be Sebastian. I don't know. Toronto and Oakland, so

795
01:14:28.680 --> 01:14:35.760
Toronto's Canada, Oakland and Portland then as America, then Encinada

796
01:14:36.560 --> 01:14:45.479
and which is Mexico. Then Prague, which is Czech Republic.

797
01:14:46.640 --> 01:14:57.159
Then then the rest these as America, so Sterling, New York, Ashbourn, Portage, Minuka, Minukah.

798
01:14:57.239 --> 01:15:01.800
Isn't that a honey Alpha Pritt? That is that where

799
01:15:01.800 --> 01:15:07.600
the honey's from? Maybe I don't know. Columbus and Kingsport.

800
01:15:08.239 --> 01:15:13.760
Kingsport then you got Bradford. Wow, all those until we

801
01:15:13.800 --> 01:15:17.640
get suddenly we get to somewhere from England. So SoundCloud

802
01:15:17.760 --> 01:15:21.239
doesn't seem to be listened to by people from England

803
01:15:21.359 --> 01:15:29.399
so much. Bradford. Then TURNG Turnger, which I do believe

804
01:15:29.880 --> 01:15:36.800
is New Zealand. Yes, New Zealand. Yeah, New Zealand Commerce.

805
01:15:39.159 --> 01:15:41.000
So here's a bit of a weird fact about me.

806
01:15:41.279 --> 01:15:44.319
I did used to study flags. I got quite excited

807
01:15:44.359 --> 01:15:48.199
by them. It was a short period in my life,

808
01:15:51.199 --> 01:15:54.479
but it happened. I basically had a book of flags

809
01:15:55.039 --> 01:16:01.840
and for some reason it stimulated my brain. Yeh, Trianga.

810
01:16:02.119 --> 01:16:07.239
So that's then you've got commerce. To see in a city,

811
01:16:08.399 --> 01:16:15.680
that is, to see in a city. I'm trying to

812
01:16:15.760 --> 01:16:24.159
memorize the flag to do it. For some reason, it's

813
01:16:24.319 --> 01:16:31.680
hiding from me. Philippines, No, to see that Lucina City

814
01:16:33.760 --> 01:16:42.880
is the Philippines. It is the Philippines. Cool Camden, which

815
01:16:42.880 --> 01:16:49.359
is America, not the UK. Camden, Las Crusis and Arlington America,

816
01:16:49.600 --> 01:16:56.199
London an America, Game, San Jos and Calamou Zoo Calama Zoo.

817
01:16:57.520 --> 01:16:59.520
What wasn't that The name of a band in the

818
01:16:59.600 --> 01:17:04.079
eighties is Kalama Zoo. Then You've got Luton and Altrincham

819
01:17:04.600 --> 01:17:10.880
in England, Fresno in America, Oldham in the UK. There's

820
01:17:10.920 --> 01:17:16.199
so many, so many. Frankfurt am Maine, which I'm pretty

821
01:17:16.279 --> 01:17:19.920
sure is Germany. Just the fact that it says Frankfurt

822
01:17:21.119 --> 01:17:26.039
is a clue, isn't it. And then you've got is

823
01:17:26.079 --> 01:17:28.600
that sausage, isn't it Frankfurt, That's what it stands for,

824
01:17:29.199 --> 01:17:37.760
sausage Texakana, Richardson, Dublin, Stockton, Morristown and Denton. I sall America,

825
01:17:39.319 --> 01:17:47.840
Manchester is England, Milwaukee and Yonkers is America. Then you've

826
01:17:47.840 --> 01:18:02.479
got North York, which is Canada, Canadi North York. Oh, Ammon, Ammon,

827
01:18:04.439 --> 01:18:11.000
I don't know. Let's say a look, that's that is Jordan.

828
01:18:11.159 --> 01:18:15.920
It's in Jordan. Ammon is in Jordan. If it's not,

829
01:18:16.199 --> 01:18:19.800
please forgive me. But I'm trying to skip around and

830
01:18:19.960 --> 01:18:23.600
find the different flags. Then you've got Leeds and Chipping, Norton,

831
01:18:24.159 --> 01:18:37.800
Aura or Aurora area, I don't know, Liverpool, Paris and Olympia.

832
01:18:39.840 --> 01:18:43.840
Olympia that's where Zeus lives. So yeah, I've got quite

833
01:18:43.840 --> 01:18:54.159
a few places. Wow, And that's just SoundCloud. So there's

834
01:18:54.279 --> 01:18:58.359
quite a few different I mean in Russia, I've got

835
01:18:59.479 --> 01:19:09.039
men Mermansk, Moscow are changed year chib Lanc. I'm not

836
01:19:09.079 --> 01:19:11.439
gonna try and pronounce it. I don't want to upset anyone.

837
01:19:12.680 --> 01:19:23.239
Chilly Banks sinks or Blast Kermit, Kermroe, Comover Oblast, Samarat Oblast,

838
01:19:24.520 --> 01:19:35.319
am the Oblast, Burietia Republic, Bres New York, krey Novice,

839
01:19:35.479 --> 01:19:43.000
Bursks Oblast, viv Oblast, Saint Petersburg. I think that's when

840
01:19:43.079 --> 01:19:47.600
my dad went. My dad went and visited Russia many many, many,

841
01:19:47.640 --> 01:19:55.239
many many many years ago, verds losts Oblost, yevoslak or

842
01:19:55.279 --> 01:20:01.279
Blost other See what my dad's done is as he's

843
01:20:01.359 --> 01:20:04.920
retired or when he retired, he decided he wanted to

844
01:20:05.079 --> 01:20:07.840
travel because he didn't really get a chance to travel

845
01:20:07.880 --> 01:20:11.640
when he was because he went from raising us to

846
01:20:11.760 --> 01:20:19.239
then he got he basically his first marriage he had

847
01:20:19.279 --> 01:20:23.880
three kids, and then his second marriage he had another kid,

848
01:20:25.199 --> 01:20:28.800
and then his third marriage he had two young kids

849
01:20:30.800 --> 01:20:35.520
already there, if you know what I mean. So he

850
01:20:35.800 --> 01:20:43.199
was sort of couldn't really sort of get away I suppose,

851
01:20:43.399 --> 01:20:53.520
like going abroad holidays until he retired. And yeah, he's

852
01:20:53.560 --> 01:20:56.359
really made the most of it. It's been quite a

853
01:20:56.399 --> 01:21:01.359
lot of places. I think it's brilliant kind of I'm

854
01:21:01.399 --> 01:21:04.600
starting to think for myself about how I'd like to

855
01:21:05.840 --> 01:21:09.399
proceed in the future, for my you know, my own

856
01:21:09.640 --> 01:21:18.039
kind of life. I really fancy going on cruises because

857
01:21:18.119 --> 01:21:21.680
I think I could do it and do my recordings

858
01:21:21.840 --> 01:21:27.640
while I was on the cruise, and then i'd have

859
01:21:27.720 --> 01:21:30.800
something to talk about as well, because I'd be going

860
01:21:30.840 --> 01:21:36.640
on excursions and there'd be all kinds of weird things happen.

861
01:21:36.680 --> 01:21:40.560
I suppose over time it'd just be nice to go

862
01:21:40.640 --> 01:21:46.800
on a few cruises a year, travel the world and have,

863
01:21:47.159 --> 01:21:50.439
you know, take my microphone with me and just you know,

864
01:21:50.880 --> 01:21:56.560
just talk and go through what's happening, and it'd be brilliant.

865
01:21:56.600 --> 01:21:58.880
I'd love to do that. I mean, I know I

866
01:21:58.920 --> 01:22:01.319
couldn't do it all the time because of the little

867
01:22:01.359 --> 01:22:04.640
one here, but I've got someone, He's got his mommy,

868
01:22:04.720 --> 01:22:07.880
he can stay with for a couple, you know, a

869
01:22:07.920 --> 01:22:12.319
week or two at a time, you know, so I

870
01:22:12.399 --> 01:22:16.880
could go away a couple of times a year on

871
01:22:17.000 --> 01:22:20.880
a cruise, even if it was just around these shores.

872
01:22:25.640 --> 01:22:29.800
Just be nice to have something to I've always liked

873
01:22:31.239 --> 01:22:35.399
cruise ships or ships, you know, going across the Channel.

874
01:22:35.560 --> 01:22:37.439
And that's as far as I've done on a ship

875
01:22:37.560 --> 01:22:41.279
is just go to France, or to Amsterdam, or to

876
01:22:41.520 --> 01:22:47.079
Belgium or to Ireland. That's the four places I've been

877
01:22:47.399 --> 01:22:52.079
on ships. But did Belgium that did that trip like

878
01:22:52.359 --> 01:22:58.159
three times. I think I did the Ireland trip twice.

879
01:22:59.600 --> 01:23:02.560
I went. I went to Paris as well, France. What

880
01:23:03.119 --> 01:23:16.000
did I say, so Belgium, what's the next one? France?

881
01:23:18.119 --> 01:23:28.560
The next one Amsterdam, the next one Ireland? That was it,

882
01:23:28.680 --> 01:23:33.000
isn't it? It's only four? Did I say number one

883
01:23:33.039 --> 01:23:35.960
before that? I can't remember. I don't think I've been

884
01:23:35.960 --> 01:23:42.560
anywhere else. Oh, No, Isle of Man, Island Man. That

885
01:23:42.680 --> 01:23:44.960
was still a ferry. It was still so Isle of Man.

886
01:23:48.239 --> 01:23:50.319
I'm trying to think of ever been anywhere else. I

887
01:23:50.439 --> 01:23:50.880
think that's it.

888
01:23:52.720 --> 01:23:53.159
Ireland.

889
01:23:53.920 --> 01:23:56.359
I include island. The nice is five. I've been on

890
01:23:56.520 --> 01:24:08.199
five fairies, like five fairy journeys, different destinations. That is so, Belgium, France,

891
01:24:19.199 --> 01:24:24.239
Island in order. I'm just trying to think Island, Amsterdam,

892
01:24:27.239 --> 01:24:32.680
Island Man. I haven't been on a ferry in twenty

893
01:24:33.159 --> 01:24:39.720
one years. I don't think, have I No, I don't

894
01:24:39.760 --> 01:24:50.000
think I have. I mean, yeah, I know. So it's

895
01:24:50.079 --> 01:24:53.880
five different destinations on a ferry and what I've been

896
01:24:53.960 --> 01:25:07.760
on a plane Spain, Bulgaria, Thailand, anywhere else. That's it.

897
01:25:09.359 --> 01:25:14.359
So basically I have technically been to I mean Island

898
01:25:14.399 --> 01:25:16.479
Man is in a different country because part of the UK.

899
01:25:18.319 --> 01:25:20.439
Mind you, Scotland is a different country and that's part

900
01:25:20.479 --> 01:25:24.720
of the UK. So I'm confused. Is Island Man a

901
01:25:24.760 --> 01:25:28.560
different country because it's a different island. There is c

902
01:25:28.800 --> 01:25:34.359
between us as there is with Ireland. And I don't

903
01:25:34.359 --> 01:25:38.760
think the news say the island of Ireland anymore. They

904
01:25:38.840 --> 01:25:41.439
went through a period and it kept saying the island

905
01:25:41.560 --> 01:25:48.800
of Ireland, and I love them. I don't love it actually,

906
01:25:48.920 --> 01:25:51.720
but the way the news tries to educate the population.

907
01:25:53.600 --> 01:25:57.319
For years, and I'm talking years and years and years

908
01:25:57.960 --> 01:26:05.520
as far back as I remember, Kiev like chicken Kiev,

909
01:26:06.399 --> 01:26:09.760
the you know, the food, the people we have, and

910
01:26:09.960 --> 01:26:12.119
the place was called the saying we called it Kiev.

911
01:26:14.640 --> 01:26:16.800
And then a couple of years ago, three years ago,

912
01:26:16.880 --> 01:26:22.079
maybe I don't know, the news channel was decided they

913
01:26:22.159 --> 01:26:25.199
started off calling it Kiev and then it changed it

914
01:26:25.359 --> 01:26:33.159
said Kiev, it's Kiev, like they done with Hyundai. It

915
01:26:33.239 --> 01:26:38.640
took years to learn that word. Now it's who, who

916
01:26:40.119 --> 01:26:45.199
or something, so I know at least lead or gave

917
01:26:45.319 --> 01:26:48.800
up on it. They gave up on us because this country,

918
01:26:49.560 --> 01:26:55.600
we are very proud of our ignorance and we don't

919
01:26:55.680 --> 01:26:58.119
like getting told what to say or how to pronounce words.

920
01:26:59.560 --> 01:27:04.000
Don't like it told to do, and we were not

921
01:27:04.119 --> 01:27:11.439
going to change. It's one of our idiosyncricities, maybe idiosyncricities,

922
01:27:12.159 --> 01:27:19.640
idiosyncricity disease. So when little came along, well Ledal, they

923
01:27:19.760 --> 01:27:22.680
kept trying to tell Leedal, no, I ain't doing it.

924
01:27:24.560 --> 01:27:27.479
We refused, and it's really weird because we didn't have

925
01:27:27.560 --> 01:27:32.079
to get together as a country. We just instinctively knew

926
01:27:33.439 --> 01:27:37.399
that we were never going to use the term Ledal.

927
01:27:38.399 --> 01:27:45.560
It was going to be little, sorry little, not Ledal Little,

928
01:27:46.800 --> 01:27:50.279
And eventually, after about twenty five years they gave up.

929
01:27:51.960 --> 01:27:54.439
They really went on for years and years calling it

930
01:27:54.600 --> 01:27:57.840
Leedal and eventually they just had to give up. And

931
01:27:57.920 --> 01:28:01.479
now they call it little them so on the adverts

932
01:28:01.760 --> 01:28:07.760
little it costs little at little so either've even rhymed

933
01:28:07.800 --> 01:28:10.279
it now in the adverts, not that I see a

934
01:28:10.279 --> 01:28:21.359
lot of adverts luckily, heir leadle, that's complicated. We can't look.

935
01:28:21.640 --> 01:28:25.119
I mean, I don't know if it's just the way

936
01:28:25.479 --> 01:28:31.560
that English people's tongues move, but it seems to be

937
01:28:31.760 --> 01:28:40.279
difficult as an english person to pronounce long names. I

938
01:28:40.319 --> 01:28:45.199
don't know why that is. It's not through lack of attempting,

939
01:28:45.520 --> 01:28:50.000
well a little bit, but it's so You've got some

940
01:28:50.199 --> 01:28:53.319
countries where the names are really long, like the surname,

941
01:28:55.600 --> 01:28:58.119
but it's really easy for them to pronounce it. I mean,

942
01:28:58.159 --> 01:29:02.079
you could argue, well, it's their name, but it's not

943
01:29:02.279 --> 01:29:07.119
just that. It's just they used to be long when

944
01:29:07.520 --> 01:29:11.840
they're not probably long to them, but they are long names,

945
01:29:12.159 --> 01:29:19.159
long surnames, And if I see a name, it's basically

946
01:29:19.319 --> 01:29:23.560
like a To me, it looks like a sentence that's

947
01:29:23.640 --> 01:29:27.119
been squashed together, that has had all the gaps taken out.

948
01:29:27.680 --> 01:29:29.920
And I'm like, how am I supposed to say that?

949
01:29:32.000 --> 01:29:35.119
Because you know, I don't want to say it. I

950
01:29:35.159 --> 01:29:40.399
don't want to say it wrongly. But I'm okay because

951
01:29:40.399 --> 01:29:43.079
I'm in the position where I don't learn people's names anyway,

952
01:29:43.680 --> 01:29:50.720
so I still call people mate, you right, mate? Twenty years.

953
01:29:52.680 --> 01:29:57.199
I've been around here ten years, and I probably know

954
01:29:57.359 --> 01:30:02.039
five names, and I don't know the names. I know

955
01:30:02.159 --> 01:30:06.560
the name of war. I know two people who walk dogs,

956
01:30:07.199 --> 01:30:12.880
two people and some people have like they saw me

957
01:30:13.000 --> 01:30:15.680
for a year and a half and then they talk

958
01:30:15.720 --> 01:30:17.079
to me and then they said, oh, by the way,

959
01:30:17.079 --> 01:30:19.479
I watch your name. So I tell them they can't

960
01:30:19.560 --> 01:30:21.840
say they call me by my name. I don't. I

961
01:30:21.880 --> 01:30:25.239
can't remember what they told me their name was, because

962
01:30:25.279 --> 01:30:27.239
I don't know. As soon as someone says, oh, my

963
01:30:27.439 --> 01:30:32.760
name is, my ear is just tightly shut. I don't

964
01:30:32.760 --> 01:30:35.880
know why. I wish they wouldn't, but they do. They

965
01:30:36.079 --> 01:30:40.479
just it's almost like an invisible finger goes into each

966
01:30:40.640 --> 01:30:53.000
ear and I don't It doesn't register. And I'm not

967
01:30:53.079 --> 01:30:56.359
talking about people that I'm not interested in or people

968
01:30:56.399 --> 01:30:59.000
I don't like, because generally I don't talk to people

969
01:30:59.000 --> 01:31:04.000
I don't like. It's people are like I mean, if

970
01:31:04.079 --> 01:31:08.359
I meet someone that I really like, they told me

971
01:31:08.399 --> 01:31:10.560
their name, it's gone. I don't remember it.

972
01:31:12.159 --> 01:31:13.359
It is gone, it goes.

973
01:31:13.880 --> 01:31:18.159
Is this something about remembering people's names? It just disappears

974
01:31:18.920 --> 01:31:28.479
when I first meet them. I mean, it happened. It

975
01:31:28.600 --> 01:31:31.720
was really embarrassing. This is years ago, A long long

976
01:31:31.800 --> 01:31:35.880
time ago. And I had this date with a lady

977
01:31:35.960 --> 01:31:37.960
that worked in the supermarket. She was on a cash

978
01:31:39.399 --> 01:31:43.840
on what cash counter, let's it. She worked on the counter,

979
01:31:45.199 --> 01:31:52.520
and we weren't on a date, and we went straight

980
01:31:52.600 --> 01:31:56.560
from her work. So I picked her up whan didn't

981
01:31:56.560 --> 01:32:01.560
pick her up, I mean I met her. I didn't

982
01:32:01.560 --> 01:32:04.039
have a car, and I picked her up, but then

983
01:32:04.079 --> 01:32:05.560
I put her down again and she said I can

984
01:32:05.640 --> 01:32:09.039
put me down. I said, okay, sorry, and we got

985
01:32:09.079 --> 01:32:11.319
a bus or something. So I don't know how to

986
01:32:11.359 --> 01:32:16.520
show a lady a good time, and we went out

987
01:32:16.640 --> 01:32:20.119
and everything like that, and we've been chatting for ages

988
01:32:20.520 --> 01:32:25.520
and then eventually kind of I built up the courage

989
01:32:25.640 --> 01:32:29.399
to do, you know, to ask her out and stuff.

990
01:32:29.520 --> 01:32:31.800
And I didn't want to put her on a spot,

991
01:32:32.960 --> 01:32:37.319
so I made sure I didn't want to embarrass her, basically,

992
01:32:38.079 --> 01:32:41.560
so I made sure that the song I sung I

993
01:32:41.760 --> 01:32:47.479
was pretty short, you know, had my guitar, and I thought, well,

994
01:32:48.239 --> 01:32:50.680
it's good to embarrass her if it's over ten minutes long.

995
01:32:52.000 --> 01:32:54.880
So I did that and it seemed to work quite well.

996
01:32:55.680 --> 01:32:57.960
And I remember her saying to me, I will go

997
01:32:58.079 --> 01:33:01.560
out of you if you just stop this now and leave.

998
01:33:01.840 --> 01:33:06.720
I said, okay, so yeah, it worked. She seemed surprised

999
01:33:06.760 --> 01:33:13.279
when it turned up though, anyway, and it went quite well.

1000
01:33:13.880 --> 01:33:15.600
In fact, you could say it went as well as

1001
01:33:16.159 --> 01:33:22.159
it could possibly have gone. And the next morning we

1002
01:33:22.239 --> 01:33:32.680
were waking up and I could not what's weird, right is?

1003
01:33:34.119 --> 01:33:42.439
We were both kind of in bed, and she said, well,

1004
01:33:43.760 --> 01:33:46.479
I got to go to work. I said, okay. She said,

1005
01:33:46.760 --> 01:33:57.159
shall we swap numbers? And I said, cool, brilliant, And

1006
01:33:58.079 --> 01:33:59.600
so she took my number.

1007
01:34:00.239 --> 01:34:00.640
This is.

1008
01:34:04.640 --> 01:34:06.960
Yeah, she said this when mobile phones were around, so

1009
01:34:07.000 --> 01:34:09.960
it was obviously it's still a while ago, but and

1010
01:34:10.720 --> 01:34:15.000
so I she I gave her my number. But this

1011
01:34:15.600 --> 01:34:17.960
is before we used to phone each other, you know,

1012
01:34:18.119 --> 01:34:19.840
like you give someone your number and then they'd call you.

1013
01:34:21.279 --> 01:34:23.479
I was literally putting a number in. We hadn't figured

1014
01:34:23.479 --> 01:34:26.520
out that you could call someone. But maybe that's because

1015
01:34:26.760 --> 01:34:29.800
back then it costs too much money to phone people.

1016
01:34:29.880 --> 01:34:33.079
But I don't know, I'm not sure. So I gave

1017
01:34:33.119 --> 01:34:37.359
him my number, and I said, do you remember my name?

1018
01:34:37.399 --> 01:34:41.960
She said, of course I do, Elvis. But anyway, she

1019
01:34:42.039 --> 01:34:44.359
did she remember my name. I felt good, and she

1020
01:34:44.399 --> 01:34:46.399
said remember my name? I said, yeah, of course I do.

1021
01:34:48.600 --> 01:34:50.399
And I couldn't remember what her name was. I had

1022
01:34:50.520 --> 01:34:54.000
no idea, just it just went out of my head.

1023
01:34:54.800 --> 01:34:56.520
I don't think it ever went into my head, but

1024
01:34:56.680 --> 01:35:00.039
it definitely wasn't in my head at that point, and

1025
01:35:01.479 --> 01:35:06.720
so we was just luckily I managed to change the subject.

1026
01:35:10.439 --> 01:35:14.479
I think I opened the window and farted, so that. Yeah,

1027
01:35:14.520 --> 01:35:20.479
that definitely distracted her. So we're getting ready she has

1028
01:35:20.600 --> 01:35:24.560
to go out, and I'm thinking. She said, well, do

1029
01:35:24.600 --> 01:35:29.079
you want to take my number? So I did. So

1030
01:35:29.279 --> 01:35:31.720
She's got her back to the door, to her door.

1031
01:35:32.960 --> 01:35:36.279
I'm looking at her and she says, Okay, it's my number.

1032
01:35:36.880 --> 01:35:39.439
I said thanks. She said, aren't you going to put

1033
01:35:39.479 --> 01:35:42.319
your name? Put my name into it? I said yeah,

1034
01:35:43.039 --> 01:35:48.920
She said, you've forgot my name, haven't you. Luckily, on

1035
01:35:49.079 --> 01:35:56.119
the back of her door was her uniform, her supermarket

1036
01:35:56.239 --> 01:35:59.479
uniform where she worked, and it was there was a

1037
01:35:59.560 --> 01:36:04.399
tag there on there, like a badge on it, and

1038
01:36:04.520 --> 01:36:09.600
I thought, thank goodness for that. It really saved me. Honestly,

1039
01:36:10.840 --> 01:36:13.560
I'm not proud of myself, but I said, of course,

1040
01:36:13.600 --> 01:36:15.039
I know what your name is. She said, what is

1041
01:36:15.119 --> 01:36:19.039
it then? And she really thought, right, she had me,

1042
01:36:20.239 --> 01:36:24.840
and I said, listen, of course, I look, we just

1043
01:36:24.880 --> 01:36:31.199
spent a really wonderful date together last night, and I've

1044
01:36:31.399 --> 01:36:33.239
liked you for a long time. I've been coming into

1045
01:36:33.319 --> 01:36:36.680
the shop, uh you know, and we've been getting on

1046
01:36:36.880 --> 01:36:39.800
and you know, I hoping I'll get to see you again,

1047
01:36:39.880 --> 01:36:43.600
and which you know, we've clicked and it's been a

1048
01:36:43.760 --> 01:36:46.840
nice time, hasn't it. She said, yeah. I said, of

1049
01:36:46.920 --> 01:36:50.520
course I know what your name is. I wouldn't. I

1050
01:36:50.600 --> 01:36:54.359
don't get I don't do these kinds of things unless

1051
01:36:54.399 --> 01:36:57.119
I know someone's name. I mean, come on, what kind

1052
01:36:57.159 --> 01:36:59.479
of person do you think I am? And she said, well,

1053
01:36:59.479 --> 01:37:01.680
what's my name? Then she wasn't giving up on it.

1054
01:37:02.439 --> 01:37:06.239
So I looked at the tag and I said, of

1055
01:37:06.359 --> 01:37:12.800
course it's Sainsbury's. I know your name is Sainsbury's. I

1056
01:37:13.000 --> 01:37:16.439
continue to put it into my phone and she's she laughs,

1057
01:37:18.319 --> 01:37:21.159
and then she looks at my phone and she says

1058
01:37:21.279 --> 01:37:30.880
that I'm actually putting in Sainsbury's into the phone. And yeah,

1059
01:37:35.399 --> 01:37:38.039
never saw her again. For some reason, she didn't call me.

1060
01:37:39.119 --> 01:37:49.680
I don't know why. Dad. So yeah, that's the end

1061
01:37:49.760 --> 01:37:57.880
of this trivia Tuesday, which really had the only real

1062
01:37:58.000 --> 01:38:00.960
trivia was just my life, wasn't it. Let's see if

1063
01:38:00.960 --> 01:38:09.279
there's any other vikings. Vikings the world's first helmet hair problem.

1064
01:38:10.279 --> 01:38:16.279
They loved practical jokes. Apparently Saga accounts mentions swapping people's

1065
01:38:16.319 --> 01:38:23.399
weapons for blunt ones, and there's a prank. Wow. Can

1066
01:38:23.479 --> 01:38:27.479
you imagine that you're in battle and you have to

1067
01:38:27.600 --> 01:38:33.720
actually your sword out and it's just blunt? Mind you,

1068
01:38:33.800 --> 01:38:38.760
they're heavy swords. I don't know. I mean, i've never never,

1069
01:38:38.920 --> 01:38:41.359
really the only I used to have a sword. I

1070
01:38:41.479 --> 01:38:44.199
used to have a samurai sword. I mean I had

1071
01:38:44.239 --> 01:38:46.199
a bit of weight on it, but that was blunt.

1072
01:38:51.760 --> 01:38:54.760
That's it. Really. I could have sharpened it, but I didn't,

1073
01:38:55.359 --> 01:39:02.560
luckily for me. And that's it. So I'm going to

1074
01:39:02.680 --> 01:39:09.720
go now. Thank you for listening. Remember to be kind

1075
01:39:09.760 --> 01:39:12.560
to yourself because you do deserve to be happy and

1076
01:39:12.680 --> 01:39:19.199
be gentle of yourself. You deserve to feel safe. Lots

1077
01:39:19.239 --> 01:39:23.039
of love, Bye,
