                                        was it was it vodka or was it potching
                                         
    
                                        no it was that's why I was thinking as well
                                         
                                        no it was vodka now let's be honest
                                         
                                        okay he said he made it
                                         
                                        yes let's be honest here
                                         
                                        yeah he could just have bought Tesco
                                         
                                        vodka and put it in a dirty bottle
                                         
                                        you would actually
                                         
                                        hope that's what he did I'd prefer
                                         
    
                                        that to be honest. How else could you do it in Dundalk
                                         
                                        he's not actually going to do it himself with
                                         
                                        potatoes. Who knows? Maybe
                                         
                                        maybe. Well see it's probably not
                                         
                                        that much different from making potching like
                                         
                                        right? I do remember

                                        of them making
                                         
    
                                        was it vodka? Probably
                                         
                                        in Russia like and it was just
                                         
                                        like you know it's time that's

                                        eventually it will become somewhat drinkable.
                                         
                                        Right.
                                         
                                        But it could be like days,
                                         
                                        could be months.

                                        See, they were very much white kids who were like, I'm going to be like that.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        Where white kids now that are growing up in this culture.
                                         
                                        What are you like it or not, James?
                                         
                                        I have no problem with it.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
    
                                        I'm all good with it, you know?
                                         
                                        But yeah, it's insane.
                                         
                                        So, like, it's the side is full racism.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        And but the game itself, they're pushing this agenda.
                                         
                                        that sounds like I'm against it
                                         
                                        they're...
                                         
                                        Wait, who's pushing
                                         
    
                                        what agenda?
                                         
                                        The NBA, like, yeah.
                                         
                                        What agenda are they pushing?
                                         
                                        Put the ball in the hoop?
                                         
                                        Those evil scumbags!
                                         
                                        The way I said it...
                                         
                                        This is white genocide.
                                         
                                        They're putting a ball in a hoop.
                                         
    
                                        I was talking about Black Lives Matter,
                                         
                                        but I made it sound like
                                         
                                        they're pushing this agenda.
                                         
                                        What I meant is...
                                         
                                        Yeah, there's little like promos and stuff
                                         
                                        promoting Black Lives Matter.
                                         
                                        Some of them are a little bit over the top
                                         
                                        where it's like, we believe that black lives matter.
                                         
    
                                        If a white person's silent, that equals black debt.
                                         
                                        Paco Bell.
                                         
                                        Taco Bell, because nobody still cares about Mexicans.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        It's like, they're trying their best, and a lot of it is like, yeah, good.
                                         
                                        But some of it is like, this isn't ad, by the way, so I'm not going to fully believe.
                                         
                                        Yeah, exactly.
                                         
                                        Like, the Nike ad they have at the moment is so funny.
                                         
    
                                        Really?
                                         
                                        I don't get offended by it by no people will.
                                         
                                        Go for it.
                                         
                                        What is it? What is it?
                                         
                                        It's like a split screen thing.
                                         
                                        Oh, yeah.
                                         
                                        So, like, let's say, um, uh, try this on this, James, okay?
                                         
                                        See if you can pick up the message, okay?
                                         
    
                                        Okay.
                                         
                                        So it's like half the screen is LeBron James.
                                         
                                        Right.
                                         
                                        And the other half is Megan Raponi.
                                         
                                        Who's that?
                                         
                                        Uh, she's like a big football, uh, star, women's football.
                                         
                                        As in soccer or?

                                        It's not American football.
                                         
                                        Yeah, it's not American football.
                                         
                                        Yeah, so women's soccer, okay?

                                        She's probably the most famous women's soccer player, okay?
                                         
                                        What ethnicity is she, may I ask?
                                         
                                        She's a white lady.
                                         
    
                                        Now, let's say if you can,
                                         
                                        you did, you did.
                                         
                                        You did media studies.

                                        Let me try and deconstruct the semiotics.
                                         
                                        It's a split screen, okay?
                                         
                                        LeBron's on one side.
                                         
                                        Right.
                                         
    
                                        Megan's on the other.
                                         
                                        Black man, white woman.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        But they're saying the same thing.
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        Right.
                                         
                                        And what are they saying?
                                         
    
                                        What exactly, what are they saying?
                                         
                                        Well, what do you think?
                                         
                                        Is there stuff like,
                                         
                                        just like, like, Black Lives Matter?
                                         
                                        This is a Nike ad.
                                         
                                        It's like, we believe that we need to do better, and we need to make sure this stops,
                                         
                                        and we've got to make sure that people understand.
                                         
                                        Black Lives Matter is not a controversial thing to say.
                                         
    
                                        Yeah, okay.
                                         
                                        Yeah, that's a fair.
                                         
                                        I would agree with that argument.
                                         
                                        So the ad is all...
                                         
                                        Nothing wrong there?
                                         
                                        The ad is all stuff like that, okay?
                                         
                                        Right, right.
                                         
                                        So it's like black man, white woman.
                                         
    
                                        Black woman, white man.
                                         
                                        Like, all these different famous people, okay?
                                         
                                        Oh, so they're kind of like changing, right?

                                        but then
                                         
                                        they do something very interesting at the end
                                         
                                        do they I swear this is true

                                        they split from
                                         
                                        they go away from format here
                                         
                                        okay this is out of the box

                                        in a burqa
                                         
                                        okay
                                         
                                        okay and she's skating towards
                                         
                                        the center of the screen

                                        kind of like that
                                         
                                        Lumier brothers film
                                         
                                        up the train pulling into the station
                                         
                                        people just get up and run out of the cinema
                                         
                                        terrified as the woman
                                         
                                        on the Berger come

                                        would not like to see a woman on a skateboard
                                         
                                        yeah that's another reason to be offended

                                        and then she evolves
                                         
                                        into a much better thing
                                         
                                        like a gay man
                                         
                                        on a skateboard
                                         
                                        now
                                         
                                        yeah of course
                                         
                                        yeah yeah
                                         
                                        so like you could get offended
                                         
    
                                        about that. No one's, I went online
                                         
                                        to see if anyone was offended. Again, I don't care at all.
                                         
                                        I think it's kind of cool to see a burqa skateboard.
                                         
                                        Sure, yeah.
                                         
                                        I want to see her do some tricks.
                                         
                                        That should be, you know, Tony Hawk.
                                         
                                        They all have burqis? Yeah.
                                         
                                        That would be a good challenge now.
                                         
    
                                        All sports just have burqas, you know,
                                         
                                        MMA, ice hockey.
                                         
                                        Ice hockey. That would be interesting.
                                         
                                        Yeah, but I went online to see if anyone was offended
                                         
                                        and people who were offended were the usual lot, you know?
                                         
                                        Right, okay. So what the racist?
                                         
                                        A lot of people like, I don't want my kids
                                         
                                        to see this, what if they catch something.
                                         
    
                                        Right.
                                         
                                        My kid owns a skateboard.
                                         
                                        What, do you tell me now he needs to put on a burqa?
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        Their whole thing is like, you shouldn't wear a black clot over your head.
                                         
                                        Right.
                                         
                                        On your body.
                                         
    
                                        White, and that's it.
                                         
                                        A little pinty hat.
                                         
                                        I mean, I would imagine that wearing a burk on a skateboard will actually be quite
                                         
                                        dangerous because it's a long billowy piece of clothing.
                                         
                                        It could get like,
                                         
                                        caught under the wheels and you
                                         
                                        could fall off? That's what I mean, yeah. That's the only
                                         
                                        thing that I could think of that's problematic about
                                         
    
                                        it. Not from any ideological
                                         
                                        standpoint, but just, you know,
                                         
                                        health and safety. Yeah, really.
                                         
                                        And if you talk to these people, probably like, sure, you can't even say
                                         
                                        that. You couldn't even stop
                                         
                                        him. You couldn't. You try to put
                                         
                                        a helmet on her, you end up in jail.
                                         
                                        I've seen them.
                                         
    
                                        They're skateboarding all over the place.
                                         
                                        No elbow pads. With
                                         
                                        the, you know, worship in the ear, the dragon,
                                         
                                        wherever they do.
                                         
                                        With their chopsticks.
                                         
                                        Their chopsticks.
                                         
                                        They're little dots on their heads.
                                         
                                        With their shrimp on the barfie.
                                         
    
                                        With their bangers and mash.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        They're all just like in his head, all foreign.
                                         
                                        Just an awful combination of everything he hates.
                                         
                                        Oh, yeah.
                                         
                                        But no, I haven't seen these ads now.
                                         
                                        Well, you're doing the Russian versions.
                                         
                                        Yeah, we just said.
                                         
    
                                        out the Russia. Believe me, they would not send that shit to Russia. Oh, no. Hell no. What are the Russian ads like? Do you see the ads? No, we don't see their ads. No, no, no. Because, like, we just, like, we stay with the live feed of the game, you know what I mean? So it doesn't show any ads on the Russian channels, just, like, promos for, like, other sports. So we never actually see any of their ads. Like, I imagine a lot of their ads are very much, like, if you want to be, like, Putin, do this. Yeah. Yeah. So if you want to have hair, like, Putin, I don't know, he's bald.
                                         
                                        Bullding

                                        He's got like
                                         
                                        He's got hair
                                         
                                        He's like that back in the sides
                                         
                                        But nothing on the top
                                         
                                        Yeah I'd say all the spokespeople

                                        But it is orifice around the...
                                         
                                        It's sucking the jizz out of...
                                         
                                        the pussy or assholes.
                                         
                                        That's it.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        But there is another one
                                         
                                        that does involve a corpse.
                                         
    
                                        Yes.
                                         
                                        What is that?
                                         
                                        That's going to say,
                                         
                                        you can win on a technicality
                                         
                                        because you can do it with a corpse.
                                         
                                        It doesn't specify...
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
                                        There's not in a rule book
                                         
    
                                        about it not being a corpse.
                                         
                                        Well, I don't know.
                                         
                                        I guess the hip cats
                                         
                                        that I hung out with,
                                         
                                        I hung out with some pretty wild dudes.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        And when I learned about felching,
                                         
                                        it involved a corpse.
                                         
    
                                        So, hey.
                                         
                                        I imagine it's better way of corpse.
                                         
                                        Probably.
                                         
                                        Less complaining.
                                         
                                        Yeah.

                                        I purposely sent 100 emails.
                                         
    
                                        Nice.
                                         
                                        Took me a whole day.
                                         
                                        Yeah, fair play.
                                         
                                        I was near the end.
                                         
                                        I was sweating.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        I was downing Red Bulls.
                                         
                                        Yes.
                                         
    
                                        At one stage, my mother came in.
                                         
                                        I was like, get the fuck out.

                                        What's for the podcast?
                                         
    
                                        My dad walks in, it's like, good work, son.
                                         
                                        Finally.
                                         
                                        Something we can agree on.
                                         
                                        Yes.
                                         
                                        For him, I was like pulling the sword, the scaliber out of the stone.
                                         
                                        Hail, King Arthur.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        So I emailed companies, okay.
                                         
    
                                        Most of them didn't get back to me.
                                         
                                        Okay.

                                        I had one sex shop get back to me.
                                         
                                        They were like, we don't do this.
                                         
                                        But happy fucking.
                                         
                                        Happy fucking.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
    
                                        Oh, that was nice.
                                         
                                        Because I told them up front, like the name of the show is Brian and James Fucky Jitter.
                                         
                                        Yes.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        Deal with it.
                                         
                                        If you don't like it, get out.
                                         
                                        And apparently they took that advice.
                                         
                                        Yeah, a lot of them did get out.
                                         
    
                                        They didn't even get in, to be honest.
                                         
                                        They never, yeah, they didn't need to get out.
                                         
                                        We had one guy message me and he was like, oh, I kind of do stuff for like companies.
                                         
                                        I kind of help match a podcast with a company.
                                         
                                        Right, right.
                                         
                                        But unfortunately, we're not American and we don't have a big American fan base.
                                         
                                        Like, yeah, you told me that and it's like, if we had a big American fan base.
                                         
                                        American fan base, would we fucking need this guy?
                                         
    
                                        Does he, like, ring up Mark

                                        What? I hear she's tough for a class in the swimming team.
                                         
                                        How do you know this? I know everything.
                                         
                                        Yeah. Yeah.
                                         
                                        And it's like, I'm like, I have a sniper on your daughter, okay?
                                         
    
                                        Two snipers. One aimed at the head, one at the womb.
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
                                        She's either going to be dead or not have kids, okay?
                                         
                                        You have a choice to make.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        I should only get shot on one, okay, regardless.
                                         
                                        Yeah. So if you're lucky, it's the womb.
                                         
                                        Yes.

                                        The only chance you have, okay, is to give us 20 euro a month.
                                         
                                        And he's like, well, 15.

                                        Like, obviously you shouldn't hate him for that.
                                         
                                        No.
                                         
                                        That's the only likable thing about him.
                                         
                                        Right.

                                        I didn't know that at all.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        Well, he uses him a lot in his column.
                                         
                                        Actually, even using it sounds,
                                         
                                        saying like he uses
                                         
                                        him a lot sounds like I'm going to be negative.
                                         
                                        Like he talks about him a lot in his columns, okay?

                                        but we don't want to.
                                         
                                        No, no.

                                        And we kind of don't notice him.
                                         
                                        Yeah.

                                        he's so boring that you don't really pay attention to him.
                                         
    
                                        But on the rare occasions,

                                        Okay.

                                        Oh.
                                         
                                        At a young age, he was doing comedy.
                                         
                                        He was singing.
                                         
                                        Comedy?
                                         
    
                                        Yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        Really?
                                         
                                        Stand-up comedy.
                                         
                                        Fuck off.

                                        I think a big part of his personality is,
                                         
                                        fact he's a failed comic.
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
    
                                        He does have that bitterness.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        Now, back in the day, if you're a failed comic, you had to go into, like, writing and write, and write funny, funny columns.
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
                                        Wait, how long was he a comedian for, roughly?
                                         
                                        A few years.
                                         
                                        He did, he was doing the interlaw.
                                         
                                        Really?
                                         
    
                                        Yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        Oh, wow.

                                        His character, okay, was a satirical poet.
                                         
                                        Soterical poet?
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
    
                                        You'd make fun of poets.
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        So what, he'd just get up there and do intentionally bad poetry?
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah, in the intro, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        Right, okay.
                                         
                                        That was his schick for a while, okay?
                                         
                                        Okay, fair enough.
                                         
    
                                        And then he got into writing.
                                         
                                        Oh.
                                         
                                        For the independent.

                                        Now, apparently his older brother got him into writing.
                                         
                                        Who's, what does his older brother do?
                                         
                                        You know what he does?
                                         
                                        What?

                                        And he doesn't have Down syndrome.
                                         
                                        Okay.

                                        His older brother got him in the writing and then died.
                                         
                                        How'd he die?
                                         
                                        I didn't see
                                         
    
                                        It didn't really go into detail

                                        And the thing falls over
                                         
                                        And you can't open the door

                                        Big laugh.
                                         
                                        Of course.
                                         
                                        Brendan O'Connor says something.
                                         
    
                                        Crickets.
                                         
                                        Yeah?
                                         
                                        Crickets.
                                         
                                        Brilliant.
                                         
                                        It's almost like someone turned down the laugh track.
                                         
                                        Well, see, that is the thing.
                                         
                                        If you have, he just exudes a very unlikable persona or his aura.
                                         
                                        It's hard to describe.
                                         
    
                                        It's almost like you don't even need to conceptualize it.
                                         
                                        It's just something you feel.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        He has an unlikable feel to him.
                                         
                                        And I think if you're a stand-up comedian,
                                         
                                        and you have like this inherent
                                         
                                        unlikability that sort of radiates
                                         
                                        out, people pick up on that
                                         
    
                                        and you don't get laughs.
                                         
                                        Yeah, and also like, I know also
                                         
                                        a lot when Darrow O'Brien says something
                                         
                                        he's completely at ease.
                                         
                                        It's like, ah, sure, imagine this, okay?
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        Smile, smile, smile.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
    
                                        With Brendan O'Connor, it's kind of hard
                                         
                                        to verbalize this, but after every joke,
                                         
                                        whether it works or not, you get to kind of like
                                         
                                        kind of like grumpy,
                                         
                                        kind of dower, kind of like,
                                         
                                        okay, look, as if everything he says
                                         
                                        like, it's either like,
                                         
                                        that didn't get a laugh
                                         
    
                                        or that didn't get big enough laugh
                                         
                                        Right, right, okay
                                         
                                        I could have said that better
                                         
                                        People don't appreciate me
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah
                                         
                                        Or even like if it's a big laugh
                                         
                                        He's like,
                                         
                                        Darrow Brains, we're gonna say

                                        He's actually one of the only people on news talk
                                         
                                        who seems to have some kind of like conscious.

                                        I've never listened to him, so I really wouldn't know.
                                         
                                        I mean, he's middle class, but he's not like retardedly middle class.

                                        what should you look for?
                                         
                                        Now, should it be bigger

                                        So, it's then, they all leave.
                                         
                                        It's Brendan O'Connor on his own.
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
                                        So what year was Don't Feed the Gondolas?
                                         
                                        Monica Lewinsky.
                                         
    
                                        Okay, so that's like mid till eight, 90s.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        Yeah, 97, 98.
                                         
                                        So Brendan O'Connor is now in charge of the show.
                                         
                                        Oh.
                                         
                                        He's the only one left.
                                         
                                        Oh shit.
                                         
                                        And the show
                                         
    
                                        Nose Dives.
                                         
                                        Who comes on
                                         
                                        to replace the other two?
                                         
                                        Just not comedians like.
                                         
                                        I think it's a rotating
                                         
                                        A rotating cast of people like
                                         
                                        And people like Ivan Yates
                                         
                                        Like not like
                                         
    
                                        Yeah, okay
                                         
                                        Oh, I love his take on things.
                                         
                                        God, it's awful.
                                         
                                        It's just all so awful.
                                         
                                        So the show goes down
                                         
                                        And Brendan O'Connor doesn't take
                                         
                                        He, Brendan O'Connor
                                         
                                        blames the lack of funny people
                                         
    
                                        in the Irish comedy scene.
                                         
                                        Oh, right, okay, yeah, sure.
                                         
                                        He said there was no one funny around
                                         
                                        to have on the show
                                         
                                        and that's why the show failed.
                                         
                                        Yeah, this is around the time of Tommy Tiernan, Dylan Moran are all coming up.
                                         
                                        Yeah, no funny people.
                                         
                                        I guarantee you, he probably was like, no.
                                         
    
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        I don't get it.
                                         
                                        That's the thing.
                                         
                                        He wouldn't have wanted anybody on that could upstage him or outshine him,
                                         
                                        which is literally anyone.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        So he just gets duds on to make himself look better.
                                         
                                        And then, of course, the show tanks.
                                         
    
                                        Where instead of, like, he should have just been the host and being like,
                                         
                                        look, I'll have it the odd funny thing,
                                         
                                        but I let these funny guys take control
                                         
                                        At the very least
                                         
                                        He should have been able to look at it
                                         
                                        As a business decision
                                         
                                        Say, okay, maybe I won't be the star
                                         
                                        Of the show
                                         
    
                                        But if I get good people on
                                         
                                        At least the show will still be successful
                                         
                                        And I'll be like heading this ship
                                         
                                        Or whatever, you know
                                         
                                        But his own narcissism wouldn't let him do that
                                         
                                        And actually to bring that back for a minute
                                         
                                        Remember when you had the show cut an edge
                                         
                                        Yeah
                                         
    
                                        So I know two comedians
                                         
                                        That either open for him
                                         
                                        Or one definitely open for him
                                         
                                        or, well one definitely
                                         
                                        open for him
                                         
                                        did crowd work
                                         
                                        crowd work
                                         
                                        like the warm up act
                                         
    
                                        for the audience
                                         
                                        yeah yeah
                                         
                                        right right
                                         
                                        people like I know
                                         
                                        I think two
                                         
                                        who actually did it
                                         
                                        and then one
                                         
                                        who tried to do it
                                         
    
                                        and was turned down
                                         
                                        okay
                                         
                                        and he was told this
                                         
                                        by a producer
                                         
                                        and then the other comedians
                                         
                                        were like
                                         
                                        yeah that's true
                                         
                                        and there's a reason
                                         
    
                                        why the two comedians
                                         
                                        I know Warren invited back
                                         
                                        because he doesn't like

                                        The perfect crime.

                                        He's pro-Iraq war.
                                         
                                        Listen to this.
                                         
                                        Okay, it was crazy.
                                         
                                        He was pro-Iraq war.
                                         
                                        The list of things he was wrong about was insane.
                                         
                                        Pro-Iraq war.
                                         
    
                                        Yeah.

                                        Right, right, right.
                                         
                                        A big thing he kept saying was the Celtic Tiger will never end.
                                         
                                        Don't listen to these economists who are saying that it will.
                                         
                                        This is a great time.
                                         
    
                                        Right.
                                         
                                        Buy more houses.

                                        Borrow against your children's future.
                                         
                                        To be honest now, if anybody did take Brendan O'Connor's financial advice,
                                         
                                        you got what was coming to you.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        You know?
                                         
    
                                        I'm trying to read...
                                         
                                        Was he anti-abortion or anti-gay marriage?
                                         
                                        I feel like he'd be opposed to those things.
                                         
                                        He's one of those people that's like, I'm not against it.
                                         
                                        I'm just saying you have a luck with it both sides.
                                         
                                        Yeah, right.
                                         
                                        He's probably one of those people just to like stir up.
                                         
                                        bit of controversy, you know.
                                         
    
                                        I can't find the exact quote, but it was like, with the economy, it was like,
                                         
                                        this is the, this is never going to end.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        And then when it did end, he was like, I told, I tried to tell you, you wouldn't listen to me.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        No, it was kind of like, I got fooled, but you know what?
                                         
                                        Everyone got fooled.
                                         
                                        Right, okay.
                                         
    
                                        And no one knew it was going to happen.
                                         
                                        Except for all the people I told you not to listen to.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, those crackpots.
                                         
                                        He also, he said the Romanian beggars aren't as polite as Irish.
                                         
                                        British beggars.
                                         
                                        He took out a full three-page spread
                                         
                                        for that one.
                                         
                                        Imagine just the height of the Iraq war as well.
                                         
    
                                        He's like, stop the presses.
                                         
                                        I got a scoop.
                                         
                                        That's amazing.
                                         
                                        But that's such a middle-class thing.
                                         
                                        Why can't you be polite?
                                         
                                        Like the Irish beggars.
                                         
                                        He just died on the street.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
    
                                        He was also big into,
                                         
                                        he wanted to bring the word knacker back.
                                         
                                        Oh, okay.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        Nice.
                                         
                                        When he wants to start a band called Knackers with Attitude.
                                         
                                        Knackers with Attitude.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah.
                                         
    
                                        Which is such a, like, you know when you start comedy and you're like,
                                         
                                        hmm, let's think of a joke here.
                                         
                                        That's such a, like, hacky.
                                         
                                        He was probably sitting on that for about 12 years.
                                         
                                        That's such a hacky, like, when you're one month in the comedy,
                                         
                                        think of that and like, okay.
                                         
                                        I'm a genius.
                                         
                                        No, you think it down, like, how can I make this funny?

                                        For Brendan O'Connor
                                         
                                        Okay
                                         
                                        Yeah
                                         
                                        And also for Enda
                                         
    
                                        Oh yeah
                                         
                                        He gained a lot of fans.
                                         
                                        Hey, that's how he became fucking T-shock.
                                         
                                        They were just like, I like this guy's style.
                                         
                                        Too hot for TV.
                                         
                                        It was kind of around that like jackass MTV era of the early 2000s.
                                         
                                        You know, this is the rock and roll T-shock that we need.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah.
                                         
    
                                        So, finally, it finally happens.
                                         
                                        He gets his own TV show.
                                         
                                        Okay, cut nitch.
                                         
                                        No, the Saturday Night Live, the Saturday Night Show first.
                                         
                                        Oh, sorry.
                                         
                                        The Saturday Night Show, okay.
                                         
                                        Now, this is when I first really noticed him
                                         
                                        because what happened is he had
                                         
    
                                        Tuberdi's night and the late late show.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        Almost like a, you know, a Fallon, Set Myers thing.
                                         
                                        Right.
                                         
                                        Or like Letterman and...
                                         
                                        Leno?
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah, yeah, okay?
                                         
                                        So what happens is Pat Kenney steps down.
                                         
    
                                        Tuberty takes over the Late Late Show.
                                         
                                        Right.
                                         
                                        And Brendan O'Connor is given him a Saturday night show.
                                         
                                        And Brendan O'Connor, the show is a disaster.
                                         
                                        Right.
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
                                        He didn't really have that many big moments.
                                         
                                        I always remember
                                         
    
                                        he had a monologue at the start
                                         
                                        Oh
                                         
                                        And this is this is the whole monologue
                                         
                                        Okay
                                         
                                        I remember this clearly
                                         
                                        Like a car accident
                                         
                                        Okay
                                         
                                        Right
                                         
    
                                        So it's the show starts
                                         
                                        Yeah
                                         
                                        He comes out
                                         
                                        He goes
                                         
                                        Thank you everyone

                                        They should have stayed there.
                                         
                                        Anyway,

                                        There was a team of writers
                                         
                                        been working on that all week.
                                         
                                        Job well done, boys.
                                         
                                        Some guy was like counting the syllables
                                         
                                        going like, is this funny?
                                         
                                        Like Studio 60s, like will this work?
                                         
                                        Will they find the beats?
                                         
    
                                        Do you know the power
                                         
                                        of comedy?

                                        So I mentioned Oliver Cal and Michael
                                         
                                        Barrymore because it was probably
                                         
                                        two biggest guests.

                                        he was gay.
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
    
                                        He came out on TV
                                         
                                        and,

                                        in his style.
                                         
                                        Swung for him.
                                         
                                        Brendan called him the N word.
                                         
    
                                        Oh,

                                        like,
                                         
                                        I'm interesting,
                                         
                                        yeah.
                                         
                                        Yeah,
                                         
                                        it was,
                                         
                                        it was,
                                         
    
                                        like, okay, and how does that experience, you know, shaped your, you know, your childhood and blah, blah,
                                         
                                        I was like, yeah, yeah, you haven't said that before, have you?
                                         
                                        It's fucking mad.
                                         
                                        Yeah, but definitely when he said that I'm gay, definitely was that the head moved back a bit like,
                                         
                                        his chair just slid back, like a record scratch.
                                         
                                        Ooh.
                                         
                                        There was somebody playing piano, like in a saloon and it just stopped.
                                         
                                        Mamma me.
                                         
    
                                        Okay, and he had Barrymore on as well, because Barrymore doesn't really do that many public appearances.
                                         
                                        No, not since it's the unpleasantness.
                                         
                                        Yeah, and he had Barrymore on, and Barrymore did some funny stuff on stage.
                                         
                                        Sure, yeah.
                                         
                                        He took, he ripped up Brendan's cards.
                                         
                                        He was like, yeah, you don't need this now, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        And then he drank Brendan's water, and he's like, oh, there's no alcohol in this.
                                         
                                        Right, right, right, yeah.
                                         
    
                                        You know, and no one mentioned the elephant in the pool.
                                         
                                        It was a chakoozy.
                                         
                                        Oh, was it?
                                         
                                        I don't know, yeah, something like that.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah, God.
                                         
                                        Which, by the way, if you're successful, you should be allowed.
                                         
                                        you know what I mean
                                         
                                        Just some fucking hood rat
                                         
    
                                        Scum that he picked up in the club
                                         
                                        Yeah
                                         
                                        And sure they ruptured his anus
                                         
                                        With some sort of implement

                                        People forget how good Barry Moore was as well.
                                         
                                        Like, he would literally, he would go off script, crowd work, he'd run up into the crowd
                                         
                                        and just start shifting grannies against their will.
                                         
                                        It was wacky entertainment, you know?
                                         
    
                                        It was a better time.
                                         
                                        It was, yeah, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        So, the late, sorry, the Saturday night show.
                                         
                                        Failed.
                                         
                                        Yeah, it goes for a while, because RTE seemed to have this kind of thing of, like,
                                         
                                        will never let you fail.

                                        If you're in RTE, we'll just keep giving you the show.
                                         
    
                                        There must be some kind of like blood ritual sacrifice shit going on.
                                         
                                        The fact that they still keep these absolute gobs shites,
                                         
                                        unentertaining fucking duds.
                                         
                                        Just keep them on the payroll.
                                         
                                        They must have dirt on somebody or something.
                                         
                                        Brendan O'Connor has four seasons, I think,
                                         
                                        of middling viewing figures that get worse and worse.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah, yeah.
                                         
    
                                        And then at the start of the fourth season, he's like,
                                         
                                        listen, guys, sorry I tell you this, but this will be our last run.
                                         
                                        and the people in the audience like, huh?
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
                                        It was the first applause break
                                         
                                        in the entire show's history.
                                         
                                        Literally, it's like such as he's like,
                                         
                                        this is a last show and like a silence for a second
                                         
    
                                        people are like, oh, I guess I should go, oh, oh, oh, that's bad.
                                         
                                        Somebody just at the side poking them with his stick.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        Oh, no, you are my favorite, I guess.
                                         
                                        You're our Carson, Brendan.
                                         
                                        Yeah.
                                         
                                        So the show fails.
                                         
                                        Yeah.

                                        They're like, oh no, it's the format
                                         
                                        as a problem.
                                         
                                        Yeah.

                                        that just doesn't work anymore.
                                         
                                        Yeah, interviewing

                                        Nobody wants to watch that.
                                         
                                        Yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        Who wants to?

                                        it was like a round table
                                         
                                        discussion, right?
                                         
                                        Yeah.

                                        hard hitting,
                                         
                                        they mean, like,
                                         
                                        they'll have like a black woman on,
                                         
                                        okay?
                                         
                                        They'd be like,
                                         
    
                                        so black woman.
                                         
                                        I'm not going to remember your name
                                         
                                        because it's probably something weird
                                         
                                        like La Mumba, okay?
                                         
                                        It's Sandra.
                                         
                                        I knew you killed Dan Lagerin.
                                         
                                        I know what Enda says about you, okay?
                                         
                                        But it's like, so...
                                         
    
                                        Don't take your voodoo out of me, eh?
                                         
                                        So, a black woman, is there racism in Ireland?
                                         
                                        She's like, actually Brendan there is.
                                         
                                        And here's it.
                                         
                                        Yep, yeah, yeah.
                                         
                                        I don't believe you.
                                         
                                        Well, there you have it, folks.
                                         
                                        Straight from the black woman's mouth.
                                         
    
                                        And so it'll be one, like, serious topic, okay?
                                         
                                        Like, oh, should, you know, should kids get raped?
                                         
                                        Okay.
                                         
                                        I don't think so.
                                         
                                        And the rest of it
                                         
                                        Maybe, you know, I'm an old fuddy-duddy
                                         
                                        And I don't understand the new ways
                                         
                                        But in the rest of it would just be like
                                         
    
                                        So vegans

                                        This is a mental health issue.
