                                        What is this?
                                         
                                        No, you guys lead. It's your podcast, basically.
                                         
                                        We're in your house.
                                         
                                        Yeah, we've broken in like some ruffians.
                                         
                                        Yeah, I'll explain to Kevin, we're doing a swapcast.
                                         
                                        Yeah, I don't really know. What does that mean?
                                         
    
                                        First of all, could you explain what is a podcast?
                                         
                                        Because I'm still in the dark.

                                        We had to explain it to the crowd who are coming to see us.

                                        the guitar on his back. So he just
                                         
                                        just belts out a ballad. What age is he?
                                         
                                        A cappella, 76. Okay. Yeah, so
                                         
                                        he just goes up and sings on his own.
                                         
                                        But, like, hard living, 76.
                                         
    
                                        Is he hard living? I think he's the opposite. Not anymore.
                                         
                                        Not anymore, but back in the day.
                                         
                                        Oh, yeah, obviously, but that was like,
                                         
                                        back the day he was
                                         
                                        a hard of living. Yeah, but he was
                                         
                                        like, there was, like, his picture was
                                         
                                        up in several pubs and hotels

                                        missing for, like, three days on the
                                         
                                        his.

                                        like the 70s

                                        an introduction

                                        to do an introduction
                                         
                                        and just
                                         
    
                                        went on a rant
                                         
                                        well it's a
                                         
                                        swap gas
                                         
                                        so it's going out
                                         
                                        on boat platform. It's going on, it's going out

                                        anyway. Brian and James, fuck each other.
                                         
                                        I'm sick of being, like, I'm sick of having to hide it.
                                         
    
                                        Fuck the asteris. That's who we are.
                                         
                                        No more asteris. No more asterisk. No, F, star, star.
                                         
                                        Currently, the internet can't entertain
                                         
                                        the idea of two men
                                         
                                        fictionally fucking one another.
                                         
                                        No, there's no fictional fucking, yes.
                                         
                                        If I'm still watching,
                                         
                                        hypothetical penetration. When we do a live show, actually, I think it'd be
                                         
    
                                        quite funny if you're like spit in my mouth or something like that
                                         
                                        and each lot and so we do the whole live
                                         
                                        show you spit in my mouth and it's like next time guys
                                         
                                        and we work a way up and then eventually
                                         
                                        we get to like the the tree arena
                                         
                                        now and then it's like full on
                                         
                                        and no one likes it
                                         
                                        it's kind of like you know black mirror when he fucks that pig
                                         
    
                                        yes
                                         
                                        everyone loved that that was the best episode
                                         
                                        when you're talking about it I was going to say it's like you
                                         
                                        saying bold breaking the world record
                                         
                                        yes because you get paid every time you do it
                                         
                                        so he never went like he never shattered it
                                         
                                        because he was like, well, if I will, I'll never beat that.
                                         
                                        So I just want to beat it by like one tenth of a second every time.
                                         
    
                                        I never knew that.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        I've made it up there on the spot.
                                         
                                        That episode of Black Mirror led to Brexit.
                                         
                                        And because that was like, that was the pig fucking episode.
                                         
                                        And after that, around about that time, that story about David Cameron and the Bullions Club came out.
                                         
                                        That's right.
                                         
                                        And then as an order to deflect from the fact that he was a pig fucking tough, he was like,
                                         
    
                                        well, what about if I gave you what you've been shiting on about for years and we do a referendum?
                                         
                                        That all, like, genuinely all happened in the space of a couple of months.
                                         
                                        and look at us now.
                                         
                                        You're right, actually, yeah.
                                         
                                        And it's interesting
                                         
                                        because that whole thing
                                         
                                        like, oh, I want to leave the EU.
                                         
                                        That was something
                                         
    
                                        they've been going around
                                         
                                        since they entered the EU.
                                         
                                        Exactly.
                                         
                                        And it was always,
                                         
                                        it was always in the back pocket
                                         
                                        to be like,
                                         
                                        if we really need to distract the people,
                                         
                                        say if they find out I fucked a pig.
                                         
    
                                        We throw this at them and that'll...
                                         
                                        I mean, come on,
                                         
                                        like, all he did was put his
                                         
                                        cock in the mouth
                                         
                                        of a decapitated pig's head
                                         
                                        as a goof.
                                         
                                        Different story.

                                        It's pure hedonistic goofs.
                                         
                                        It's no sexual thing to do it at all.

                                        I don't think so
                                         
                                        They don't listen anyway

                                        He was like
                                         
                                        Where do you live?
                                         
                                        we're actually listening to one of the episodes now
                                         
                                        yeah we listen to the Orange Order episode

                                        it's information first
                                         
                                        yeah yeah so we're very emotionally led
                                         
                                        yeah so like you get all the information
                                         
    
                                        and then you're comfortable with it
                                         
                                        and you know what you're talking about and then it's funny
                                         
                                        that's a lot that's a
                                         
                                        you bullshit to make it seem like
                                         
                                        you know what you're talking about
                                         
                                        one person has done with depending on who's
                                         
                                        running the podcast because like if it's one of us
                                         
                                        if it's my if it's Kevin's
                                         
    
                                        turn I'll lead with. He does a lot more. You can look at you're in his room now. You see all the
                                         
                                        history books over there. Yeah. Yeah. It's a big room as well. If people knew how you lived,
                                         
                                        I mean, it stops to subscribe to the battery on that. But no, he cares a lot more about history. It was
                                         
                                        his idea to start the podcast. And he had had a failed run of a different podcast with the same
                                         
                                        idea with a friend who wasn't a comedian. Oh, really? That's not entirely how it happened.
                                         
                                        How's it goal? We, um, this was like six years ago.

                                        You get it eventually
                                         
                                        I need to pay rent now
                                         
                                        We recorded the thing
                                         
                                        On like Irish mythology
                                         
                                        We recorded it from my phone
                                         
                                        My phone was just sitting on the table
                                         
                                        And the two of us were chatting
                                         
                                        And they picked it up on that
                                         
    
                                        But I thought it would add an ambience to it
                                         
                                        If I had a record playing in the background
                                         
                                        But that just meant they couldn't edit it
                                         
                                        Because you just hear the record skip
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah, yeah good
                                         
                                        But no we only did one
                                         
                                        It was just for the crack
                                         
                                        It was before we even knew what a podcast was
                                         
    
                                        Who is this guy?
                                         
                                        Where is he now?
                                         
                                        Don't fucking bring him up now
                                         
                                        It's a very sensitive subject
                                         
                                        For Jason
                                         
                                        It's like bringing up Geck's wife
                                         
                                        Yeah he's very insecure
                                         
                                        And the hands getting ready
                                         
    
                                        Like what to name that bitch
                                         
                                        Was he better in bed than me
                                         
                                        He was just different
                                         
                                        A podcast somebody else
                                         
                                        I'd love it like
                                         
                                        Would you?
                                         
                                        I actually love it because it's like

                                        I didn't ask.

                                        I've been living in Carlo for the last six weeks, so I'm pretty good at it now.
                                         
                                        Yeah, it's kind of like, oh, I need to be sobered living Carlo.
                                         
                                        No.
                                         
    
                                        So I was saying, like, it's a great history podcast.

                                        Which we try to refer to it.

                                        And it's two comedians who, let's say.
                                         
                                        it's like a loose retelling of
                                         
                                        Irish stories. That's what I said earlier.
                                         
                                        Kevin does more research. Well, he takes
                                         
                                        I don't know if he does more. He does
                                         
                                        he takes more serious topics.
                                         
                                        Okay. And then I don't want to do that
                                         
                                        because I'm busy. Or I don't care.

                                        she wanted us to say something

                                        by going into the basement
                                         
                                        in a huff
                                         
                                        then turning around
                                         
                                        and storming out again
                                         
                                        she's hunting for an argument

                                        so her son brought her over
                                         
                                        from England

                                        some reference to Cromwell

                                        because we weren't

                                        with King Henry VIII, if I believe
                                         
                                        I'm right. Well, well, well.

                                        I'm probably wrong. That's why I don't do a history podcast.

                                        A bit earlier, like maybe a few weeks or a couple
                                         
                                        of months earlier, Owen Colgan, like
                                         
                                        Buzz from Artybox was like doing

                                        And afterwards, these two lads kind of
                                         
    
                                        came, and it must be the same two lads.
                                         
                                        Now, they didn't give me any pictures of Michael Collins,

                                        Well, they know what they're doing like.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        Actually, I genuinely don't think that they do.
                                         
    
                                        They're like, actually, yeah, you're right.
                                         
                                        They're quite...
                                         
                                        But don't say to...
                                         
                                        We have made a plan around going back there
                                         
                                        and staying.
                                         
                                        But I heard they're rich.
                                         
                                        Yeah, I heard they're wealthy.
                                         
                                        They're very wealthy.
                                         
    
                                        So we should probably release this
                                         
                                        after we've stayed in their house.
                                         
                                        No, release it.
                                         
                                        They want to hear this.
                                         
                                        They're going back.
                                         
                                        We'll go away.
                                         
                                        No, we're all going back.
                                         
                                        Oh, yeah.
                                         
    
                                        The aim is to do all of us
                                         
                                        and James Morin.
                                         
                                        Yeah, let's do it.
                                         
                                        We can do crowd work.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        That'd be dangerous.
                                         
                                        We all do crowd work.
                                         
                                        We all get up on stage.
                                         
    
                                        Like, whoa.

                                        Where are you from?

                                        One thing about Mollongar, they're always quite rowdy, but you can literally say anything.
                                         
                                        There's no one.
                                         
    
                                        No one's writing a blog the day after in Mollongar.

                                        landlords and they were like,

                                        Like the turtles?

                                        Now, of course, people, now, if you are a fan of our podcast, you'll know that the
                                         
                                        Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, of course,

                                        They had tunnels underneath the cities.
                                         
                                        What did they like to eat?
                                         
                                        Pizza.
                                         
                                        There was a rat, and we all know what the rat represent.
                                         
    
                                        I'm not going to say it.
                                         
                                        But the students of history, I'm sure, will know.
                                         
                                        It was set in Rome and more particular in the Vatican.

                                        to correct him on his pronunciation
                                         
                                        like four seconds

                                        Like dark-haired, sallow skin.

                                        Overweight and sad.
                                         
                                        You know, classic Irish.
                                         
                                        The classic Irish.
                                         
                                        The Brendan Gleeson, but without the money.
                                         
                                        That's kind of what I'm going for.
                                         
                                        And your trousers are dry.
                                         
    
                                        They are quite dry.
                                         
                                        Not as dry as I would like, but they're getting there.
                                         
                                        No, were we all at the fringe
                                         
                                        two years ago?
                                         
                                        I think I was.
                                         
                                        I was at someone's gig there and it might have been Emily Ashporn's actually
                                         
                                        and she was asking,
                                         
                                        did they even know any interest in Irish names to the audience?
                                         
    
                                        And like a Spanish woman in front of me put up her hand and was like,
                                         
                                        oh, a Fenian.
                                         
                                        And I was kind of laughing to myself thinking like, oh, someone's pulling her leg.
                                         
                                        And went up to her afters was like, yeah, do you actually know someone called
                                         
                                        Feeneon? I thought someone was taking the piss and she was like,
                                         
                                        oh no, like my boyfriend's friend from back in Northern Ireland,
                                         
                                        it's called Feeneon and it was Martinis's nephew.
                                         
                                        what?

                                        I was going to guess

                                        I'll find that.
                                         
    
                                        She left a trail.
                                         
                                        I have my methods.
                                         
                                        I fucked her.
                                         
                                        Much like most of the podcast,
                                         
                                        like our podcast,
                                         
                                        don't go Googling stuff.
                                         
                                        That's like,
                                         
                                        that's kind of one of the good things
                                         
    
                                        about having a podcast
                                         
                                        that nobody listens to it
                                         
                                        and kind of sends us in
                                         
                                        and nobody cares, you know?
                                         
                                        You can't be.
                                         
                                        Well, I was going to say
                                         
                                        it's the opposite
                                         
                                        because you have like a,
                                         
    
                                        you're like the comedians
                                         
                                        comedian's comedian of podcast
                                         
                                        that like all the Irish comedians
                                         
                                        are listening to eat.
                                         
                                        Yeah, but they don't share it
                                         
                                        or tell anyone they listen to.
                                         
                                        What's up with that actually?
                                         
                                        There's number of people I know
                                         
    
                                        who are like,
                                         
                                        oh, I love it,
                                         
                                        I couldn't see it.
                                         
                                        Why?
                                         
                                        Why?
                                         
                                        You...
                                         
                                        Just because it has fuck in the title?
                                         
                                        No, it's not because...
                                         
    
                                        That's certainly not the reason.
                                         
                                        Yes.
                                         
                                        Or it's not because the voices.
                                         
                                        Oh, you think the accents are the problem?
                                         
                                        I have prefaced the use
                                         
                                        of the voices many times
                                         
                                        and I'm sick of defending it.
                                         
                                        Yeah, I've seen what happened to Shane Killis.
                                         
    
                                        You know, that was...
                                         
                                        It's kind of what I'm hoping for.
                                         
                                        If that's not my trajectory, I'll be dead in a year.
                                         
                                        You're the young bull.
                                         
                                        It's either Rogan or...
                                         
                                        or the gutter.
                                         
                                        It's funny.
                                         
                                        See what way it goes.
                                         
    
                                        If you do like an Asian voice,
                                         
                                        like,
                                         
                                        ah,
                                         
                                        it's ironic.
                                         
                                        Like,
                                         
                                        ironic of what?
                                         
                                        Taste?
                                         
                                        You know,
                                         
    
                                        it's,
                                         
                                        I'm just making foot of like
                                         
                                        that sort of thing.
                                         
                                        You're right.
                                         
                                        It is,
                                         
                                        you know what it is?
                                         
                                        It's,
                                         
                                        it's very hacky and silly and dumb.
                                         
    
                                        And the only kind of merit,
                                         
                                        if there was any,
                                         
                                        is the fact that like,

                                        when you do it.

                                        hear from anybody about anything. Well, it doesn't help that, like,
                                         
                                        you're constantly talking about how, like, I'm so

                                        So, you know...
                                         
                                        You just let you lose in there.

                                        We talked about him.
                                         
                                        Ty, um...

                                        When he was a baseball player back in the day,
                                         
                                        he used to actually sharpen his boots on purpose
                                         
                                        and deliberately, like, try and get in the head, like, yeah, yeah.

                                        Did it sell out Ireland?

                                        a scalyady.
                                         
                                        It went fucking...
                                         
                                        It's like Opie versus Anthony.
                                         
                                        A scallion eater?

                                        That's the Carlo.
                                         
    
                                        You know, you've got like the Banner County.
                                         
                                        You've got the...
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
                                        No one cares about Carlo because, you know,
                                         
                                        being brighter from there.
                                         
                                        Monaghan. Monaghan is very much forgotten.
                                         
                                        If it wasn't for the Monaghan Dublin bombings,
                                         
                                        no one would even...
                                         
    
                                        Would have heard of him.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        That really put us on the map.
                                         
                                        The tourist office did that on purpose.
                                         
                                        You do, yeah.
                                         
                                        False flag.
                                         
                                        They know, they didn't even bother putting the plaques on a wall.
                                         
                                        It's one of the few plaques
                                         
    
                                        it's on the ground.
                                         
                                        So it's only for moping fuckers
                                         
                                        and walking around
                                         
                                        looking at their shoes
                                         
                                        they're in their seat.
                                         
                                        Kind of like the Hollywood stars.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        There's one on Parnell Street
                                         
    
                                        and one on the Abbey Street.
                                         
                                        But, um,

                                        because you said that the treaty
                                         
                                        county,
                                         
                                        the treaty county
                                         
                                        is called the treaty county
                                         
                                        because of the like 1691 treaty.
                                         
    
                                        Oh,
                                         
                                        no,
                                         
                                        don't bring up facts.
                                         
                                        And you said it's called
                                         
                                        the treaty county
                                         
                                        because you thought the dead hid out there.
                                         
                                        I called it the treaty county.
                                         
                                        Yeah.

                                        I thought we agreed
                                         
                                        to edit everything else
                                         
                                        until I was right
                                         
                                        Now I'll be honest

                                        I've said a lot of things
                                         
                                        exactly but the thing is
                                         
                                        you know you bring it on yourself
                                         
                                        in that. I made the decision
                                         
                                        to say those things while being recorded

                                        them at a moment's notice.
                                         
                                        So I walk around with a blade in my boot

                                        They give you compliments about me.

                                        I live in Dublin. I'm unhappy.
                                         
                                        I don't live in Dublin. Because I can't afford it.
                                         
                                        Oh, I'll get a cup of coffee off Kev Larnay.
                                         
                                        And I go, sir.
                                         
                                        Kev shut that down straight away. It's like, nah, pal.
                                         
                                        I've got so many, I've got beans from all around the continent.
                                         
                                        I'm like, nah, give him a fucking tea bag.
                                         
    
                                        Decafis. Really?
                                         
                                        I don't want him getting hyper and stay in here.
                                         
                                        Is it Barry's or lions? Because if it's Barry's, that's the final insult, isn't it?
                                         
                                        That's Little Brent.
                                         
                                        Oh.
                                         
                                        Oh, you were Barry's, man.
                                         
                                        We used to be Lions and Lions Goldblend.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah, yeah.
                                         
    
                                        And the mother just decided one day to...
                                         
                                        She went crazy one day in the supermarket, super value, always Super Value.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        Went and got Barry's.
                                         
                                        It's been five or six years now.
                                         
                                        Hasn't changed.
                                         
                                        That's what I moved to America.
                                         
                                        That's what fucking people in America that I've given them go, this is the only
                                         
    
                                        tea bag there is.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        In America, there's another type of tea bag, but it's not, you don't put it in
                                         
                                        hot water. You put it on people's faces.
                                         
                                        Oh, you mean you're testicle.
                                         
                                        I didn't want to have to explain that.
                                         
                                        To these two. You had to explain it.
                                         
                                        Do you see my face? I was like, what?
                                         
    
                                        There's other types of tea.
                                         
                                        You mean green tea?
                                         
                                        Yeah, you go up to a girl's like, hey, can I
                                         
                                        Earl Grey, you?
                                         
                                        You whore.
                                         
                                        Let me camamile, you bitch.
                                         
                                        So, yeah,
                                         
                                        get back to my question. Do you think it was
                                         
    
                                        the right decision to sign the treaty?
                                         
                                        I think it was the only decision.
                                         
                                        I think I'm in the same.
                                         
                                        People are like, oh, traitors and all that.
                                         
                                        I don't think, because there was going to be a more conservative government coming up, wasn't there?
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        They were also, like, before World War I, like, we were on the verge of a civil war here anyway.
                                         
                                        They were going to give home rule.
                                         
    
                                        All the boys in the north had just, like, chipped over a load of guns.
                                         
                                        And, like, 1914, the UVF had armed themselves.
                                         
                                        And down here, everyone was getting ready to arm themselves.
                                         
                                        Like, yeah, Ulster, 100 years later, barely is ready for unification.
                                         
                                        and it definitely wasn't ready back then.
                                         
                                        So if you had to come back with all the counties,
                                         
                                        it would have been to civil war,
                                         
                                        which there was anyway, so who knows?
                                         
    
                                        But here's a question, right?
                                         
                                        The rest of the three of us.
                                         
                                        There's not alone.
                                         
                                        He's gone.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        I'm genuinely, I am such an idiot.
                                         
                                        I have no idea why you're talking about.
                                         
                                        Well, now, here's a question.
                                         
    
                                        We've done podcasts about this bore,
                                         
                                        and I've forgotten because of what we talked about earlier.
                                         
                                        When's Liam Nixon going to show up?
                                         
                                        What's so say?
                                         
                                        I don't find you, and I will.
                                         
                                        Radicalise you.
                                         
                                        Say Liam Neeson came back today and unified the country.
                                         
                                        Would you be willing to give up the flag and the national anthem for a New Ireland?
                                         
    
                                        Well, what'll be a flag then?
                                         
                                        No, I don't know.
                                         
                                        We'd have to vote on it.
                                         
                                        You mean like a unified 32 counties?
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        No, the unionists wouldn't agree to that.
                                         
                                        But say it just as part of the deal.
                                         
                                        No, that's true.
                                         
    
                                        You're right.
                                         
                                        They're very laid back.
                                         
                                        They'd be like, yeah, just keep the tricolour.
                                         
                                        Oh, we actually like at the three colors.
                                         
                                        It looks good.
                                         
                                        It's fucking grown to me.
                                         
                                        He's dead now.
                                         
                                        We were just kind of not going to defend them.
                                         
    
                                        That is a good point now.
                                         
                                        What would you...
                                         
                                        The flag tells a story, though.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        That's the whole point of the flag.
                                         
                                        It's like Protestants and Greens and the white.
                                         
                                        Yeah, but it has sort of been
                                         
                                        university recognized as like, you know,
                                         
    
                                        the Catholics and it's our side.
                                         
                                        It's like, it's like symbolic.
                                         
                                        It's basically like a real fuck you to like the unionists, right?
                                         
                                        I know what you mean.
                                         
                                        It is, ironically, it would be the perfect one,
                                         
                                        but you can't go from burning something on a bonfire
                                         
                                        for a hundred years to be like, actually,
                                         
                                        salute.
                                         
    
                                        Well, then they can have their union jacks then.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        It's like that.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        But you need some sort of...
                                         
                                        He calls them Union Jack Eans.
                                         
                                        Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        I'd say...
                                         
    
                                        That's a joke for our listeners.
                                         
                                        I'd say, like, a blue flag with...
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
                                        All right, blue.
                                         
                                        You're going to take it's a gay, like...
                                         
                                        A dog on it.
                                         
                                        It's been turned into a shirt already.
                                         
                                        A dog.
                                         
    
                                        A dog.
                                         
                                        A dog might be good.
                                         
                                        No, everybody likes dogs.
                                         
                                        A type of dog.
                                         
                                        An Irish wolf end with a balladlass.
                                         
                                        What's the name the dog?
                                         
                                        Spuds McKenzie.
                                         
                                        Spuds McKenzie.
                                         
    
                                        That was a real dog.
                                         
                                        Cerbris or satanta.
                                         
                                        Was not a dog?
                                         
                                        Oh, the dog, the Ku-Kullin hurled a dog.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah, they love all that sort of stuff.
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
                                        And then changed the National Anthem to a nation once again.
                                         
                                        Brian just pointed at his mountain and said, hurled the dog.
                                         
    
                                        Yeah, you did point it to, well, he hurled the dog.
                                         
                                        He hit the dog.
                                         
                                        Yeah, he swallowed the dog.
                                         
                                        I got too excited by history.
                                         
                                        It is a good, I've never actually even considered that, but yeah, if there was, like, going to be unification, they would want some new, like, kind of flag and new whatever national anthem.
                                         
                                        Let's put money down.
                                         
                                        When's it happening?
                                         
                                        10 years?
                                         
    
                                        Yeah, within the next 10 years.
                                         
                                        You think, yeah?
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
                                        I mean, if I'm wrong, who gives a shit?
                                         
                                        If I'm right, we're all partying.
                                         
                                        I'm going to the prices writing and go, 11.
                                         
                                        Tomorrow.
                                         
    
                                        It could be 100 years.
                                         
                                        I'm still right.
                                         
                                        I'm closer to it.
                                         
                                        I've talked to a good few people in the north who are like, it's never going to happen.
                                         
                                        And I really don't think, like, you know, as each,
                                         
                                        new generation cares less and less.
                                         
                                        Like, just like from, you know,
                                         
                                        like obviously there's a few diehards,
                                         
    
                                        like the historians like yourselves.
                                         
                                        But like, you know, like the TikTok kids
                                         
                                        don't give you shit about Unified Ireland, you know what I mean?
                                         
                                        No, isn't there like IRA TikTok?
                                         
                                        They've got like thick asses.
                                         
                                        Oh, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        Just going to help the cause.
                                         
                                        Wait, unification of a country.
                                         
    
                                        I can make money on Onlyfans.
                                         
                                        What are you talking about?
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        But isn't the, the, of course, IRA.
                                         
                                        Sinn Féin, they've made a real push.
                                         
                                        to go on the social media way, haven't they?
                                         
                                        Oh, yeah. Didn't he, Jerry got in trouble there like yesterday for that Christmas song?
                                         
                                        Have you seen that?
                                         
    
                                        Oh, Chucky Arla, La La La.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        What was that actually on?
                                         
                                        I saw, like, the article, but where was it?
                                         
                                        Some social media change.
                                         
                                        He got shared in TikTok.
                                         
                                        It's made to be shared.
                                         
                                        It's pretty funny that Jerry Adams is like, he's slaying the game right now.
                                         
    
                                        Jerry's making Simpsons.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        He was doing cat.
                                         
                                        Smash that like, buttons.
                                         
                                        And subscribe.
                                         
                                        That's when you know, like, it was like, all right.
                                         
                                        Jerry, take a back step from the front of the party.
                                         
                                        You just go on Twitter and start making cat memes.
                                         
    
                                        It'd be so funny if he got cancelled in 2022 for like an inappropriate song.
                                         
                                        When he like, forget about all the IRA stuff.
                                         
                                        He like protected his paed brother.
                                         
                                        He's definitely murdered people.
                                         
                                        Well, now that was inappropriate.
                                         
                                        But then he's like, what's all these ping pongs, you know?
                                         
                                        Well, remember that time he said like, well, he said he was watching Django and Shane.
                                         
                                        He was like the Bally Murphy ends of...
                                         
    
                                        Was that not Ennekenny?
                                         
                                        No, Endicenny did it as well.
                                         
                                        I think they've all done it
                                         
                                        Yeah, but he tweeted it there a few years
                                         
                                        He was like, what the fuck?
                                         
                                        Or she remembered, what's his name?
                                         
                                        Mr. Green Party said it there
                                         
                                        like a few, like last year.
                                         
    
                                        What was the context?
                                         
                                        Don't look at me when you say that.
                                         
                                        Eam and Ryan said it in the dole there a year ago.
                                         
                                        I know, what was the context?
                                         
                                        He already stood up.
                                         
                                        It was like, I just want to say something.
                                         
                                        We're working like ends out there for you.
                                         
                                        No, I can't remember what he said it in.
                                         
    
                                        I think he was quoting some rap lyric.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        Was it kneecap?
                                         
                                        It might have been.
                                         
                                        Yeah, he was doing a,
                                         
                                        Spotify playback for 2020
                                         
                                        but it would be funny to see Jerry
                                         
    
                                        cancelled at this late stage in the game
                                         
                                        yeah that's so weird like
                                         
                                        just like stumbling at the last hurdle
                                         
                                        yeah no people love him so much
                                         
                                        he's become such a figure of fun now
                                         
                                        he's a cuddly man
                                         
                                        he's like the cuddly granda or something
                                         
                                        well we've been saying recently that it's
                                         
    
                                        going to be like Mary Lou

                                        because it's just like it's a whip around

                                        she'll get into power and it's like

                                        ceremony, hand it off to Kamala.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah. No one generally taught that, though.
                                         
                                        No one... You didn't live there.
                                         
                                        No one's seen. You didn't talk to the people.
                                         
                                        You don't know what I've been through.
                                         
                                        Sorry, that's why I'm at. No one's sane
                                         
                                        taught that. Yeah, yeah.
                                         
    
                                        But that's, like, people already think
                                         
                                        that that's what's going to happen, that like, Mary Lou's
                                         
                                        going to get in and then the induction ceremony.
                                         
                                        Sike!
                                         
                                        Yeah. We're going to drop down, like,
                                         
                                        Hatsy style, like, 40-foot flags from the bottom,
                                         
                                        and it's going to be, here comes Jerry.
                                         
                                        Yeah, he just comes in one of those, like,
                                         
    
                                        hoverboards.

                                        All work and no union.
                                         
                                        No United Ireland makes Jerry a very dull boy.
                                         
                                        I've heard there's files, sealed documents in, I think, MIT in Boston,
                                         
                                        that 100% proved that he was, like, you know, killing people, like.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
                                         
    
                                        Oh, just that's what I've heard.
                                         
                                        Oh, that is...
                                         
                                        They're unopened.
                                         
                                        That's the whole thing, like...
                                         
                                        No, they got them.
                                         
                                        Do you remember a few years ago when he was arrested
                                         
                                        in, like, conveniently in the middle of an election cycle?
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
    
                                        It's the Gene McConville thing.
                                         
                                        And as part of, like, a...
                                         
                                        Yeah, it's in MIT, Boston.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        Of course it's Boston.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        Well, where else would they keep it?
                                         
                                        But they were like, in the...
                                         
    
                                        You know, for the sake of history,
                                         
                                        we'd rather know than not know.
                                         
                                        So they interviewed people on, like, both sides,
                                         
                                        UVF, and people in the IRA.
                                         
                                        And they're like, you can tell.
                                         
                                        tell us your story, your full story.
                                         
                                        It'll be sealed until after either you die or like the last person involved is die.
                                         
                                        So there'll be no repercussions.
                                         
    
                                        It's grand.
                                         
                                        Right.
                                         
                                        And as soon as like, MI5 and Edibed, like, yeah, give us those tapes.
                                         
                                        And it was all the people talking about how Jerry Adams had like ordered the G.
                                         
                                        McCombard murder.
                                         
                                        And they took him into.
                                         
                                        I do, yeah.
                                         
                                        I do remember him getting arrested.
                                         
    
                                        They arrested him on us.
                                         
                                        They arrested him on us.
                                         
                                        They just fucking took the tapes.
                                         
                                        And MIT was like, this will ruin.
                                         
                                        No one will ever be able to do a project like this again because you're taking the tapes.
                                         
                                        Like, yeah.
                                         
                                        Don't give a phone.
                                         
                                        it's also inadmissible right if like yeah yeah because it was still hearsay it was the same evidence
                                         
    
                                        they always had it was it was it actually mit or was it like was there any kind of intelligence
                                         
                                        no MIT it was just MIT itself yeah MIT was the college yeah i know but like why
                                         
                                        where to make the robot dogs why would MIT like you know just 21 did ever see that film
                                         
                                        that's a film you know not really heaven spacey he's a safer topic of it but no they just
                                         
                                        yeah for the interest of history and probably because they were all Bostonians and
                                         
                                        yeah they're all gay for that
                                         
                                        so what is just like more or less
                                         
                                        like a sociological experiment
                                         
    
                                        let's just call it less about Jerry
                                         
                                        killing people
                                         
                                        just to like you know
                                         
                                        and there's no kind of like
                                         
                                        like law enforcement behind it or kind of like
                                         
                                        oh what are they saying there
                                         
                                        well that's what happened
                                         
                                        the FBI or whatever
                                         
    
                                        I'm sure they had to have known
                                         
                                        but they all loved the Irish over there
                                         
                                        yeah
                                         
                                        Whitey Bolter was helping the FBI
                                         
                                        well he was an FBI
                                         
                                        informed yeah yeah he was helping everybody
                                         
                                        that's true
                                         
                                        that's what I mean I just don't I don't
                                         
    
                                        But I necessarily that it was just strictly MIT acting on their own.
                                         
                                        I get you.
                                         
                                        I don't know.
                                         
                                        But they didn't take the files.
                                         
                                        They looked at the files, but it's not like they have them, like, we got him here, babies.
                                         
                                        And it's not evidence.
                                         
                                        Like, so.
                                         
                                        But they did hand them over to MI5 anyway, like.
                                         
    
                                        So really, all MI5 got us like, oh, now we know there's rumors that he was in.
                                         
                                        Exactly.
                                         
                                        Now we have this guy who's.
                                         
                                        Pisshead McGill.
                                         
                                        Well, it was because it was the same people who'd always been saying it.
                                         
                                        They were like, well, now we've heard it on tape.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        No, it was Laura's price, I think, had recorded it.
                                         
    
                                        And then, but yeah, it was the same evidence that they always had.
                                         
                                        See, here's the thing, because it's so relatively recent.
                                         
                                        And we still get the brother coming out on the news sometimes being like, oh, my sister got killed.
                                         
                                        I made that sound very dismissive.
                                         
                                        Wow, wow, wow.
                                         
                                        You still have families coming out and, like, still very clear links.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        But I think, give it, like, 300 years, and people will look at Jerry and the IRA and all that as, like, a very kind of like, yeah, fuck, yeah.
                                         
    
                                        Very sympathetic.
                                         
                                        They're not going to look at the details, stuff like that.
                                         
                                        Well, there's even a lot of people.
                                         
                                        that turned their back on like Jerry
                                         
                                        at the time because he denounced all that stuff
                                         
                                        and like a lot of the people who are involved
                                         
                                        in the Gene McConlin killing
                                         
                                        are the ones that came forward because they're like yeah he told us
                                         
    
                                        to do it we have to live with that murder and he's
                                         
                                        still walking around there yeah
                                         
                                        like Charles pretty much a celebrity now like
                                         
                                        he's sort of like you know the evolution
                                         
                                        of it on social media he's really like

                                        like they're not
                                         
                                        being ushered in
                                         
                                        with the whole
                                         
                                        sort of
                                         
                                        eugenics
                                         
                                        transhumanism
                                         
                                        some stuff, but they still have a bit of
                                         
    
                                        chain knocking around. As the kids
                                         
                                        say today, James, some clout.
                                         
                                        Some clout, yeah. It's still got a fucking
                                         
                                        speedboat, you know. They're chasing that
                                         
                                        clout, but when they finally catch
                                         
                                        that clout, they run them off the road
                                         
                                        into a lake. Yeah. Nice.
                                         
                                        Do you not find it? I'm trying to find this
                                         
    
                                        now. It's driving a bit crazy now. It'll be
                                         
                                        tricky because then there is the Rockafella
                                         
                                        that came up straight away, yeah.
                                         
                                        So that's kind of, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        Well, you know, you're thinking rock and rolla, the
                                         
                                        guy Richie.
                                         
                                        With Gerard Butler, yeah
                                         
                                        Was that, was Rockefeller
                                         
    
                                        started by Jay-Z, Damon Dash?
                                         
                                        Was that there?
                                         
                                        Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        Back to Michael Collins.
                                         
                                        Yeah, so Collins, okay.
                                         
                                        Let's do the film now.
                                         
                                        Is this still the intro?
                                         
                                        How much have we done?
                                         
    
                                        Because I feel like we've done quite a lot.
                                         
                                        What?
                                         
                                        15.
                                         
                                        15? 15.
                                         
                                        Oh, shit.
                                         
                                        5.0.
                                         
                                        Enough time to find out who the rapper was.
                                         
                                        You didn't find the...
                                         
    
                                        No, I'm so annoyed that.
                                         
                                        I did find it was Paul Hill married Courtney Kennedy.
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
                                        Okay, that's good, yes.
                                         
                                        Anyway.
                                         
                                        Okay, that's the intro done now.
                                         
                                        Let's get down to the episode.
                                         
                                        Well, yeah, I haven't seen that film in a long time.
                                         
    
                                        It was going to be Kevin Costner.
                                         
                                        Oh, yeah.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        It was going to be very American.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        I mean, it still is.
                                         
                                        And what's interesting is...
                                         
                                        Like ordinary decent criminal to the general.
                                         
    
                                        Man.
                                         
                                        Ordinary decent criminal, don't even...
                                         
                                        Have you seen it?
                                         
                                        Boy, of course.
                                         
                                        Oh, yeah.
                                         
                                        Many times,
                                         
                                        Kevin Spacey as Martin Gowl.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
    
                                        It's fantastic.
                                         
                                        I mean, obviously shite,
                                         
                                        like, but it's a lot of fun.
                                         
                                        But I've been like Harpin on at
                                         
                                        Howard at this stage.
                                         
                                        Harpon for his Dundalk Roots.
                                         
                                        But we think that might be
                                         
                                        the first of our shite talk film club.
                                         
    
                                        Ordner decent criminal.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        That would definitely be,
                                         
                                        I like the general,
                                         
                                        the one with Brennan Gleason.
                                         
                                        That's a great film.
                                         
                                        It's such a good film.
                                         
                                        Genuinely good film.
                                         
    
                                        Yeah, but we don't want to do those.
                                         
                                        though. There's a lot to talk about in that
                                         
                                        as well. You're such a mad character. I mean it really is
                                         
                                        but like the order decent
                                         
                                        criminal it is just like a copy
                                         
                                        and paste of the general but like

                                        Yeah, no.
                                         
                                        That's the world we're living in now.
                                         
                                        Why could he have shot a Protestant?
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        Or John Totorrell
                                         
                                        I could see that
                                         
                                        That would have worked better than Alec Baldwin
                                         
                                        But no Alan Rickman
                                         
    
                                        Kills it
                                         
                                        Rickman really
                                         
                                        He kills it
                                         
                                        He became Devalera
                                         
                                        He's great
                                         
                                        Well yeah I don't know
                                         
                                        My good reaction to Devalera
                                         
                                        If there was a cool movie
                                         
    
                                        Called Devalera
                                         
                                        Where Liam Leeson played Dev
                                         
                                        Maybe we'd be having a different story
                                         
                                        Sure
                                         
                                        But yeah he's a bit
                                         
                                        Devalair Ra
                                         
                                        Devalera
                                         
                                        Yeah
                                         
    
                                        Well Mike and Collins is the benefit
                                         
                                        Of he was lucky enough
                                         
                                        To get shot
                                         
                                        when he was, what was it, like 31?
                                         
                                        Yeah, like, Kirkobain.
                                         
                                        He's a revolutionary.
                                         
                                        The 31 Club.
                                         
                                        You never get to see, like, Che Guevara, you know, a good clean,
                                         
    
                                        everyone has the same opinion on him.
                                         
                                        But, like, it's easy, you know, well,
                                         
                                        it's easier to be a revolutionary than win the revolution
                                         
                                        and then go into politics.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        Because then he's not getting the blame for everything.
                                         
                                        Whereas the guy who got shot when he was still, like, out there as a gunslinger.
                                         
                                        How was Devalera as a post-Michael Collins, a politician,
                                         
    
                                        you know, when things weren't as blowy-upy,
                                         
                                        was he a good politician was he
                                         
                                        he got down on his knees
                                         
                                        in front of the Catholic church and said
                                         
                                        yes please father
                                         
                                        yeah yeah I don't know what he was
                                         
                                        but then like who wasn't religious
                                         
                                        for the time yeah I don't know if he was uncharacteristically
                                         
    
                                        Catholic now did he also sign the book of condolences
                                         
                                        for Hitler he did yeah yeah but that was
                                         
                                        that's not great is it in my book
                                         
                                        you have done research
                                         
                                        yeah I just did stuff I picked up from school
                                         
                                        like I used to get bullied in history class a lot
                                         
                                        so it's all very yeah
                                         
                                        Well, at the time, the Germans were just, like, not the British.
                                         
    
                                        So when he died, he sent over flowers, and then all the stuff about the Holocaust started coming out and he's like,
                                         
                                        like, like a Larry David thing.
                                         
                                        Before the press got real bad for those guys over there, there was sort of a sympathetic, like,
                                         
                                        oh, you guys are kind of trying to fight the establishment just like they're over here.
                                         
                                        Much respect.
                                         
                                        Wait, they're doing what?
                                         
                                        How many in the camps?

                                        despite doing a history podcast for two years.
                                         
                                        The teacher literally gave up.

                                        I remember watching a documentary
                                         
    
                                        about him

                                        But apparently no one
                                         
                                        knew
                                         
                                        Harry lost his finger
                                         
                                        He's missing a finger
                                         
                                        Oh yeah
                                         
                                        He'd always tell like nine different stories
                                         
    
                                        Yeah

                                        And he was like
                                         
                                        Yeah

                                        Oh
                                         
                                        Your smile
                                         
                                        Isn't gonna get you
                                         
                                        through a horrible accent.
                                         
                                        I mean, it's not great,
                                         
                                        but I would agree that it's not the worst either.
                                         
    
                                        I've heard way worse.
                                         
                                        I've heard worse, yeah.
                                         
                                        People tell me you sound American,
                                         
                                        like to me that I am an American.
                                         
                                        That means you're autistic.
                                         
                                        Does it?
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        I knew it.
                                         
    
                                        I'm glad you said to me.
                                         
                                        That's the only diagnosis I need.
                                         
                                        That's how they kind of break it to you.
                                         
                                        Like, you're,
                                         
                                        you sound American?
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        We're going to give you respital all and Ritalin because you sound American.
                                         
                                        Just take it.
                                         
    
                                        But so I'm trying to find my way into a Ritalin prescription.
                                         
                                        for someone who has it but doesn't want it.
                                         
                                        It's tricky.
                                         
                                        It's tricky.
                                         
                                        You can get there.
                                         
                                        He's got to do some paperwork and stuff.
                                         
                                        No, I know some Americans who have moved back home who've left me an Adderall prescription.
                                         
                                        Exactly same.
                                         
    
                                        I don't make a prescription, but a girl gave me a load of Adderall and now she's a lesbian.
                                         
                                        Make it that which you will.
                                         
                                        I'm a bit afraid to touch it now.
                                         
                                        Did you date her for like two months?
                                         
                                        A big farmer here they still have you killed.
                                         
                                        I want to start liking pussy.
                                         
                                        Yeah, the film.
                                         
                                        So the film was nice.
                                         
    
                                        96 and then the Good Friday Agreement's 98.
                                         
                                        So yeah, they are very close together.
                                         
                                        So that's why they decided to, you know,
                                         
                                        be a bit more measured with the portrayal.
                                         
                                        Well, that was one more thing about Jerry Adams
                                         
                                        and the Good Friday Agreement.
                                         
                                        James Warren told me recently that like,
                                         
                                        because there's multiple copies of it.
                                         
    
                                        And on several copies, he signed his name like Jerry Adams,
                                         
                                        X-O-X-X-O, like Gossip Girl.
                                         
                                        Lolls, bids, for Evs, Jerry Adams.
                                         
                                        You will not believe what happened.
                                         
                                        Yeah, well, you know, because we're talking.
                                         
                                        And just like that, the Good Friday Agreement happened.
                                         
                                        he became a meme lord obviously afterwards
                                         
                                        but rarely even in 1996
                                         
    
                                        XOXO bit of a prankster
                                         
                                        he saw it coming
                                         
                                        like Bill Gibson
                                         
                                        I thought of a very good point
                                         
                                        Why when I'm in the hot tub
                                         
                                        Why won't you give me
                                         
                                        A free independent Irish state
                                         
                                        And blow me
                                         
    
                                        When I said blow
                                         
                                        I didn't mean OMA
                                         
                                        There we go
                                         
                                        There it is
                                         
                                        It's worth it now
                                         
                                        We're firing all cylinders now
                                         
                                        Just before we end
                                         
                                        Let's start the podcast
                                         
    
                                        I'd have a good point
                                         
                                        it's probably not a good point.
                                         
                                        I have to run it by you guys
                                         
                                        because you're learned men.
                                         
                                        It's interesting that.
                                         
                                        I would prefer if you'd stop saying that.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        An American studio had to make Michael Collins
                                         
    
                                        because an Irish studio wouldn't
                                         
                                        or an English one definitely.
                                         
                                        No.
                                         
                                        It has to be an American
                                         
                                        would have that bit of attachment
                                         
                                        where they can't have him be a bit cool
                                         
                                        and badass and the ladies,
                                         
                                        Don Draper type, you know.
                                         
    
                                        But it's also like quite big in scope.
                                         
                                        I don't think in the 90s.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        In the 90s, an Irish film
                                         
                                        like production company or studio
                                         
                                        couldn't have imagined
                                         
                                        couldn't have
                                         
                                        managed to pull that off
                                         
    
                                        I thought opening
                                         
                                        fucking GPO scene
                                         
                                        is huge
                                         
                                        you know what I mean
                                         
                                        and there's a lot of big
                                         
                                        set pieces like that
                                         
                                        so it gives it
                                         
                                        a bit more gravitas
                                         
    
                                        I think
                                         
                                        there's a TV movie
                                         
                                        that was made
                                         
                                        about three years before
                                         
                                        with a certain
                                         
                                        Mr. Brendan Gleason
                                         
                                        playing Michael Collins
                                         
                                        and it's very cheap
                                         
    
                                        and they can't help it
                                         
                                        like but it's like
                                         
                                        the general
                                         
                                        to
                                         
                                        or reason criminal
                                         
                                        well it's good quality
                                         
                                        but it's more like
                                         
                                        it's play in a way
                                         
    
                                        or it's just like we're in one room
                                         
                                        room. Now we're in other room.
                                         
                                        You know, there's no explosions or like, cool.
                                         
                                        Like, it's a bit where he dropped down, he's attached the wires.
                                         
                                        They're in the GPO, but they've got super-soakers, you know.
                                         
                                        I mean, there's no need to go over the top with the explosions, but like a lot of it is
                                         
                                        set during a war.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
    
                                        And I'm sure, yeah, the Irish player would just be them returning from something and being like,
                                         
                                        wow, we saw some action out there, didn't we boys?
                                         
                                        G-wiz.
                                         
                                        G-wizz occurs.
                                         
                                        When those bullets came flying, I sure felt it.
                                         
                                        As a film overall, like, regardless of what many people will take issue with is the historical
                                         
                                        accuracy and the liberties they take, which I'm not even
                                         
                                        fully aware of all the things that they
                                         
    
                                        get wrong or, you know, lie about.
                                         
                                        Could you give me a quick rundown of that?
                                         
                                        Well, just one thing we touched on it.
                                         
                                        The Good Friday, isn't that what?
                                         
                                        Oh no, what's it? The Bad Sunday? What was that?
                                         
                                        Bloody Sunday? Yeah, it's a bad Sunday.
                                         
                                        Well, yeah, because there was two bloody Sundays.
                                         
                                        There was Bloody Sunday in Crowe Park.
                                         
    
                                        Yes.
                                         
                                        That they show of the film and then Bloody Sunday in the 70s
                                         
                                        in Derry or whatever that? Right, right, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        But you would think that all.
                                         
                                        of a sudden like people go oh there's been a historical day named after this yeah you shouldn't
                                         
                                        use that again yeah jiz they really phoned it in with the second one was like just call it bloody
                                         
                                        sunday again people were still annoyed about the last ones like bloody sunday too which by the way is a
                                         
                                        quite good film if i recall the paul greengrass one with uh james james jesbitt yeah excellent
                                         
    
                                        very good underrated now we're actually getting into proper films they actually shot a lot of it
                                         
                                        in bally mon very close to where i live now like you can
                                         
                                        see the flats and all in it, but it's very
                                         
                                        like sort of handheld running
                                         
                                        gun, shaky camera, but it really works
                                         
                                        aesthetically. I was going to say
                                         
                                        Greengrass loves
                                         
                                        the shaky... Yeah, that's kind of
                                         
    
                                        his whole thing. He kind of got a bit distracted by
                                         
                                        Bourne, but... Yeah, yeah, he
                                         
                                        went a bit over... Yeah, yeah. But he
                                         
                                        has some very good stuff in his filmography
                                         
                                        back in the day, like, oh, great TV movies
                                         
                                        that no one's seen, that's just free on YouTube.
                                         
                                        Yeah. There's a great one about the murder of
                                         
                                        Stephen Lawrence. Yeah, it's great.
                                         
    
                                        Yeah, it was a black guy who got
                                         
                                        battered by like, I think
                                         
                                        like six like white guys
                                         
                                        and then like the police were like so
                                         
                                        just like, oh yeah, we'll investigate that eventually.
                                         
                                        He's a great film about
                                         
                                        or a documentary about some guy
                                         
                                        running on the LA highway
                                         
    
                                        on PCP
                                         
                                        like trying to, with a gun, trying to like stop
                                         
                                        traffic. I think it's called
                                         
                                        Martin Lauren.
                                         
                                        Was he on PCP? I heard it
                                         
                                        was heat exhaustion. I've been lied.
                                         
                                        I heard it was weed and you're like,
                                         
                                        no, no.
                                         
    
                                        yeah he was like in his underwear waving a gun screaming they're trying to kill me is like he was talking about the critics after big mama's house you know they're trying to kill me there's only one thing that'll get people to stop talking about big mama's house too and you're not going to like it but yeah michael collins the film how do you feel about it apart from you know as a film itself
                                         
                                        the one bit that we did before was the breaking out of um like breaking dev out of lincoln chair prison yeah he yeah was he at the key melted with the candle was that
                                         
                                        that all bullshit or is that
                                         
                                        apparently that's all true
                                         
                                        I suppose they think they don't
                                         
                                        reveal their tactics
                                         
                                        but then the bit
                                         
                                        they haven't dressed up
                                         
    
                                        as a woman
                                         
                                        I was going to say
                                         
                                        who were in for Ireland
                                         
                                        yeah
                                         
                                        apparently that never happened
                                         
                                        but that might just be

                                        because he was a yank

                                        he just ended up

                                        he just went

                                        months afterwards we broke him out.
                                         
                                        I was working

                                        glasses?
                                         
                                        it's a good episode
                                         
                                        I'm happy with this now
                                         
                                        we haven't really
                                         
    
                                        they make me look like Mia Khalifa
                                         
                                        Michael Collins
                                         
                                        no well so
                                         
                                        I always thought it was interesting
                                         
                                        that I think doesn't make me an obvious answer for it
                                         
                                        but like how obsessed everyone is
                                         
                                        with the JFK execution
                                         
                                        there's no real Irish
                                         
    
                                        conspiracies about Michael Collins
                                         
                                        hit me let's do it

                                        I gotta put a belt in his mouth
                                         
                                        when he gets like this
                                         
                                        that table's getting very
                                         
                                        say in a second ago it's a good episode
                                         
                                        he was just lying but now he's interested
                                         
    
                                        he's into it yeah the Guardian okay
                                         
                                        and other publications but English publications
                                         
                                        now okay that's why it actually matters
                                         
                                        like about three months ago
                                         
                                        apparently there's lots of new stuff about
                                         
                                        his assassination and there's like a book
                                         
                                        coming out just meant to like lift a lid on it
                                         
                                        and he's like talked to it because no one
                                         
    
                                        it's funny because if you're investigating this
                                         
                                        there's a lot of people who just never been talked
                                         
                                        there's documents is lying around
                                         
                                        like sign confessions is lying around
                                         
                                        that no one like cares about
                                         
                                        so like do people even know who did it
                                         
                                        Like, who pulled the trigger?
                                         
                                        I think, because I've brought this up a few times about why it's crazy.
                                         
    
                                        Oh, no, yeah, we've been through this.
                                         
                                        It's Jonathan Rees-Meyers did it.
                                         
                                        Yeah, because they've fully showed in the film.
                                         
                                        Yeah, that it's just some young fellow, played by Jonathan Rees-Myers.
                                         
                                        And I think...
                                         
                                        Played?
                                         
                                        Oh.
                                         
                                        It was.
                                         
    
                                        He was also in a film where he played one of those, the Shankill Butchers.
                                         
                                        Remember those guys?
                                         
                                        Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        He was also meant to be in a film where he played Michael Jackson, but...
                                         
                                        Ah.
                                         
                                        Some people didn't like the blackface.
                                         
                                        Fair enough.
                                         
                                        Fair enough.
                                         
    
                                        I think it's because they know who did it.
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
                                        But maybe it's just local knowledge.
                                         
                                        And so what's, is there a conspiratorial angle to it?
                                         
                                        Well, the biggest conspiracy is Dev.
                                         
                                        The Dev did it.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        Which isn't really a conspiracy because they were like an open warfare at the time.
                                         
    
                                        Sure.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        It wouldn't make sense if he killed them.
                                         
                                        Apparently in the movie, they shot a whole scene that very specifically said
                                         
                                        Dev didn't do it.
                                         
                                        Oh, didn't do it.
                                         
                                        Yeah, didn't do it.
                                         
                                        Don't do it.
                                         
    
                                        And they cut that.
                                         
                                        They cut that.
                                         
                                        So, like, it's not, it's not, it's not, no, it's not
                                         
                                        sintillating, it's not sexy.
                                         
                                        This wouldn't play into Rickman's character.
                                         
                                        He demanded to have a cut.
                                         
                                        No, but it's interesting.
                                         
                                        Yeah, just for the amount of obsession we have over different associations.
                                         
    
                                        Yeah, look, September came out like,
                                         
                                        could new evidence help Ireland learn who kill Michael Collins?
                                         
                                        Because it's coming up to the 100 years.
                                         
                                        Yeah.

                                        and Padrick Pierce
                                         
    
                                        that's why
                                         
                                        his missus
                                         
                                        had such a problem
                                         
                                        with it
                                         
                                        yeah
                                         
                                        so there's a theory
                                         
                                        that it was
                                         
                                        Emmett Dalton

                                        now some theories
                                         
                                        say they did on purpose
                                         
                                        some say it was
                                         
                                        accident
                                         
                                        how would it be an accident

                                        Talk about that in gangs of New York, the five points.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        But nowadays, that's before this, though, that they used to go and, like,
                                         
                                        just do a bunch of, like, they basically had a whole city block,
                                         
                                        or like this, like, dilapidated area.
                                         
                                        where they were let graffiti artists go and just do whatever you want.
                                         
                                        And not only outside the buildings,
                                         
                                        but the buildings themselves were dilapidated.
                                         
    
                                        So inside all the buildings,
                                         
                                        they were like a bunch of like graffiti artists doing all of that.
                                         
                                        And it was like years and years of work for everyone.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        And then the guy who owned it was like,
                                         
                                        oh, I can sell it for a like a fucking hotel.
                                         
                                        Burn it to the ground.
                                         
                                        Just demolish it all.
                                         
    
                                        And like were the government paying the artists and stuff?
                                         
                                        no one was paying the artist.
                                         
                                        You're just like,
                                         
                                        your man who owned it was like,
                                         
                                        right,
                                         
                                        it's a dilapidated area.
                                         
                                        Let's just like,
                                         
                                        let them go out of it
                                         
    
                                        because we can't make money
                                         
                                        from it elsewhere.
                                         
                                        So they would let them do that.
                                         
                                        And then right at the point of the owner going,
                                         
                                        oh,
                                         
                                        we're about to sell it.
                                         
                                        They go,
                                         
                                        we're bringing it to like the,
                                         
    
                                        like,
                                         
                                        I don't know what the high court is.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        I want to call it the high court.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        But then they all reached out to Banksy.
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
    
                                        Who was at the time doing
                                         
                                        a month-long sojourn.
                                         
                                        Wait, now, hang on,
                                         
                                        stop the record.
                                         
                                        What?
                                         
                                        He was in New York for a month.
                                         
                                        Every day he was doing a new piece.
                                         
                                        Right.
                                         
    
                                        I remember that time, yeah.
                                         
                                        Yeah, he was every single day in New York,
                                         
                                        a new piece.
                                         
                                        He was doing a new Banksy exhibit,
                                         
                                        but every day was a separate part.
                                         
                                        And they kept reaching out to him going,
                                         
                                        could you come down here
                                         
                                        because it's like 20 years,
                                         
    
                                        or whatever it is,
                                         
                                        of like, historic...
                                         
                                        New York graffiti.
                                         
                                        And if you put something there,
                                         
                                        then they won't destroy it.
                                         
                                        And then at the very end of it,
                                         
                                        he'd finish his 30 days, and he didn't come
                                         
                                        down, and then once someone whitewashed
                                         
    
                                        the whole thing, he just put up a thing.
                                         
                                        Maybe it was a day before they whitewashed
                                         
                                        it, but he was like,
                                         
                                        man, that's some bullshit.
                                         
                                        By the way, I just bought that property
                                         
                                        and there's a no hotel coming.
                                         
                                        I put up a picture of a rat with a wallet,
                                         
                                        and he's looking over his shoulder.
                                         
    
                                        I mean, for somebody who rags on capitalism
                                         
                                        him as much. He does very well
                                         
                                        on the back of it. I remember he sold that painting
                                         
                                        and it destroyed itself.
                                         
                                        He won't shredded itself.
                                         
                                        So instead of it just being some
                                         
                                        shit painting, everybody in the world
                                         
                                        saw it and it's now in shredded form
                                         
    
                                        worth way more than it was made.
                                         
                                        Yeah, he got sold. Yeah, I think he might
                                         
                                        have known what he was up to there.
                                         
                                        He probably sold every shred
                                         
                                        for a million quick. No, whoever it just bought it
                                         
                                        was like, oh, all of a sudden my painting is worth
                                         
                                        infinite more time. Like, aren't they
                                         
                                        insured as well when you buy big art pieces?
                                         
    
                                        No, he didn't, no one bought it.
                                         
                                        No, because someone had just bought it and then when it was
                                         
                                        paid for it was shreds. That's a good goof.
                                         
                                        Yeah, no, but then, but the shredded form
                                         
                                        everyone saw, it's now way more famous
                                         
                                        than the unsreaded one. That's definitely hanging in this thing.
                                         
                                        He actually did build a hotel in Palestine.
                                         
                                        Oh, did he? Yeah, it was kind of a big
                                         
    
                                        art piece where there was like stuff on all the
                                         
                                        walls and like, I think he had like statues
                                         
                                        of like, you know, dead people and something like that.
                                         
                                        He was like, Israelis are great.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's what they need over there. Social
                                         
                                        commentary, man. Stop being so uppity.

                                        modern day, go to Palestine, build
                                         
    
                                        a hotel and says, fuck you,

                                        being launched in our children's faces.

                                        I'm trying to give a good way to end this.
                                         
                                        What, is it not,
                                         
                                        on the Israel-Palestine conflict?
                                         
                                        Give it back to the Moors.
                                         
                                        It's a nice little in-between
                                         
                                        of, you know, Michael Collins,

                                        And then Michael Collins again, yeah.
                                         
                                        Yes.
                                         
                                        Was there more
                                         
                                        one question you wanted to ask us
                                         
                                        about Michael Collins? I'm trying to think right now actually
                                         
                                        there is but I've forgotten it now because we're having good
                                         
                                        fun to be honest. What about the answer to your
                                         
    
                                        question? How would you feel? Do you reckon he should
                                         
                                        have pushed harder for the full 32?
                                         
                                        Oh yes yes exactly yeah
                                         
                                        because he was said like oh I've signed my own debt
                                         
                                        warrants. Now you think
                                         
                                        like that was the right choice
                                         
                                        that should have held out and you've been like you know
                                         
                                        I mean I ain't playing this shit all or

                                        yeah I think it's probably all he could have done
                                         
                                        yeah I think that's the end of day like I think

                                        And he hated lads
                                         
                                        With ADHD
                                         
                                        He was like
                                         
                                        You're too on the ball
                                         
                                        But this might be fun
                                         
                                        To end it
                                         
                                        This guy's been trying to end it
                                         
                                        this guy's been trying to end it for the last hour
                                         
    
                                        I've got a pot noodle here I want to eat
                                         
                                        No he's trying to end it for the last like 10 years
                                         
                                        He just gets it every so often
                                         
                                        Someone gives him a compliment
                                         
                                        He's edging, go on
                                         
                                        What's the show?
                                         
                                        Let's say Netflix announced
                                         
                                        A Michael Collins mini series
                                         
    
                                        Who would you want to see directing it
                                         
                                        Who do you want to see playing the big roles
                                         
                                        Now

                                        It might be fun to get Liam Neeson back
                                         
                                        To play like maybe Michael Collins's dad
                                         
                                        Or something like that
                                         
                                        Give him a row
                                         
    
                                        Yeah, just Michael Collins
                                         
                                        No, Liam Neeson, does he have a son?
                                         
                                        That seems to be pretty big in Hollywood now.
                                         
                                        It does.
                                         
                                        Oh, no, yeah, Jesus.
                                         
                                        Leem Neeson named his firstborn son after our producer.
                                         
                                        Oh, yes, after Dan.

                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        What?
                                         
                                        You got your old Robin?
                                         
                                        We say that he's here occasionally.
                                         
                                        Yes.
                                         
                                        Is he looking for work?
                                         
                                        We can't pay him, but we have a lot of content.
                                         
    
                                        We pay them in the Michael Collins film.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        Dan, our producer, one of my good friends.
                                         
                                        Seemingly, he was, like, on set, and they were doing some, like, shootout scene,
                                         
                                        and he would not stop crying, but it was a time of Ireland when they were, like,
                                         
                                        you've got to let people come down and look, because people, like, local people want to have a gawk.
                                         
                                        Wait, what set was this on?
                                         
                                        Michael Collins.
                                         
    
                                        Oh, wow.
                                         
                                        Who was crying?
                                         
                                        Our friend, Dan.
                                         
                                        What, Dan was crying?
                                         
                                        Oh, he was a child, wasn't it?
                                         
                                        Yeah, he was a baby.
                                         
                                        Right.
                                         
                                        I thought he meant Liam Neeson was crying.
                                         
    
                                        I was like, what?

                                        No, but he did.
                                         
                                        Pussy bro.

                                        He's just falling asleep.

                                        So who's directing this?
                                         
                                        Who do you want to see?

                                        I might end on a letter story.
                                         
                                        Go ahead.
                                         
                                        Her air code is.
                                         
    
                                        There's a lad in my school who showed her his cock when he was in primary school.
                                         
                                        She was also in primary school.
                                         
                                        It was all legal.
                                         
                                        Well, maybe legal is not the word, but, you know.
                                         
                                        It was all above board.
                                         
                                        Well, so my story is older than that and also is not sexual.
                                         
                                        But my brother was working.
                                         
                                        Why you can tell it then?
                                         
    
                                        My brother was working in the Carlo's Cinema at the time.
                                         
                                        but she came up
                                         
                                        the da who was in

                                        he was in the clinic at the time

                                        but not great particularly
                                         
                                        his daughter was amazing

                                        but whenever she would come home then

                                        No one in Carole saw that.
                                         
                                        They were like, bad boys fight.
                                         
    
                                        The local Carlo rendition.

                                        And as her and.
                                         
                                        her friend came up there
                                         
                                        Oscar nominated
                                         
                                        and said well
                                         
    
                                        I paid for the pizza
                                         
                                        so if you want to get the tickets
                                         
                                        I will listen
                                         
                                        and that's enough for me
                                         
                                        I'm glad you said that
                                         
                                        because that's enough for me
                                         
                                        you take the woman out of carlo
                                         
                                        but you can't take and dot dot dot
                                         
    
                                        you're never too big to get
                                         
                                        a cinema ticket bought for you though
                                         
                                        in fairness now Oscar nominated or not
                                         
                                        the cinema is a fucking rip off
                                         
                                        we can all agree on that
                                         
                                        she got nominated
                                         
                                        You don't get paid for me nominated.
                                         
                                        Yeah, exactly.
                                         
    
                                        What's she been up to recently?
                                         
                                        She had Lady Bird.
                                         
                                        No, and she's in a bunch.
                                         
                                        Little women?
                                         
                                        Little women, yeah.
                                         
                                        Little dimming or whatever it's got women, yeah.
                                         
                                        No, she's great.
                                         
                                        It's just that whole thing of a hope, Brian.
                                         
    
                                        Also, you were meant to ride in
                                         
                                        Howard behind me.
                                         
                                        Oh, yeah, you're right.
                                         
                                        She's a fucking whore.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        What age is she actually?
                                         
                                        A whole, legal, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        That's important.
                                         
    
                                        Too old for Brian, anyway.
                                         
                                        She's older than you, right?
                                         
                                        I think so, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        by like a year or something like that yeah it's probably like 26 27 around then yeah she's not 30 yet
                                         
                                        right once she hits 30 she'll be working in that carlo's cinema that would be quite funny you
                                         
                                        see her mopping up like so oh well well well well well well well well well well no it's it's the main
                                         
                                        reason i have a problem with her it's not because of any of that it's because of the fact that
                                         
                                        as soon as she became famous that she had said i don't really know where i'm from did she say that
                                         
    
                                        Yeah. She was like, I'm kind of New York. I'm kind of Dublin. I'm kind of Irish. But I'm being everywhere. And she never said Carlo. I saw her in Stephen Colbert. She didn't mention Carlo once. Yeah, one time. What about the chipper? You. Trailer. Cafe Roma right across the street. That's in between the two bins. I'm sitting you eyes like, foundry. Foundry.
                                         
                                        She like fucking pulls over top to show a Carlo Jersey and starts shouting Carlo Rising. You boys won't be happy.
                                         
                                        Our audience wouldn't have got that
                                         
                                        Okay, but we would have
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah, it would have been for the people back home
                                         
                                        But yeah, I think we need to
                                         
                                        That's probably
                                         
                                        It's been a great time being the podcast guys

                                        Because we're all in constant reverence

                                        That's irrelevant
