Hi everyone and welcome back to another episode of the Real Talking Podcast with your hosts
Ash and JD and this week we've got a sponsor.
Yeah, so our sponsor is Keema Mentor.
They are a small start-up business with a focus on quality and creative designs.
You can follow them on Instagram, keemamentor or you can purchase the key rings at keemamentor.etsy.com
for the people watching at home.
Here's the two here.
Yeah, we've got the two little exclusive samples that they have sent to us personally.
And for the YouTube visual watchers, they can see exactly what we've got.
I'm not going to pick them up and bring them to the camera, just zoom in, don't be lazy.
Yeah, so at the moment they've got just these two designs, but obviously as they progress
I'm sure they will get more.
But yeah, if you're interested, just check out the handles that we've just said and yeah.
Happy to have them.
Yeah, I mean because the two that we've got, they are nice little key rings, well not really
little, they're a decent size to be fair and we've got a, it's a bear of sorts.
Yeah, it's a bear and for the LG P2 Plus, whatever it is, we don't discriminate in this
program.
Yeah, for our special listeners out there, we've got a nice flag on their Etsy page for
you to purchase as well.
And they are nice, they're a good quality, definitely worth a look and the price is decent
enough as well.
Yeah.
As and when you do purchase one as well, just send a little message, let them know where
you've come from and I don't know, you might get a discount, just be cheeky, just ask
and see what you get.
Don't ask, don't get.
That's it.
I must point out though as well, they're not just key chains, you can also hack them
into your backpack, sorry, your satchels, anything like that so you can do more than
just put them on your key rings, they're an alternative.
Yeah, just because of the good size of them, they are definitely going to be durable on
that sense.
But yeah, go check them out.
The links will be in the description as well.
So if you don't understand the Brummie accents or you just forget what we've said, just click
on the link and it will take you directly to the website.
Well, it is a website but you all know what I'm saying, fucking hell.
So, let's get into it.
Now this week we've got a bit of a sex scandal going on again.
I feel like there's a sex scandal every week.
Well yeah, there pretty much is.
Obviously the other week there was the Brussels brand stuff coming out.
And that's gone quiet.
It's gone so quiet.
It's gone quite like it's not true, quite like, I don't know, does that make sense?
Because normally it builds and builds and builds when you get all these accusations,
keeps getting built.
But it's just like, I should straight down that thing.
Yeah, I think like, because he was always open with everything that he did.
I wouldn't class him as a sexual predator.
If anything, he was just living his best life at all.
He was a sex addict, didn't he?
He went to rehab for him.
You know, fucking, you know, all the drink, the drugs and that.
And obviously with these celebrities anyway, if you're in that environment, women are throwing
themselves at you, all men, whatever you're into.
Okay.
But yeah, it was there for him.
It was easy to accessible.
Some of the stories that came out, it's believable.
Whatever he's fucking actually done, any of the nastier stuff, we'll find out.
But I think it was always convenient because he'd went on some of the bigger programs and
he was shouting out the big oil companies and this and that.
And so once he started doing that, that's when all this sex scandal stuff started coming
out about him.
So I think they're trying to shut him down on that sense to make him seem uncreditable
when it comes to his views on life.
The worrying thing with the Russell Brand one is it come out to the news before he went
to the police, which I always find strange.
Yeah.
Doing a channel four documentary, interviewing other comedians and possible targets, victims
rather.
You know, it's a bit naughty that is really, you know, if they've got all this evidence
and the one of fucking locking down, just take it to the police first.
It's like Mendy, the Man City player.
You know, you think about how much time, money, because he would have lost millions, reputation.
You know, you can't, no, it's hard to say because, you know, these stuff is happening.
And he just had you know, defer what's actually is a correct, you know, what's actually happened
and what hasn't, you know what I mean?
So I suppose what I'm trying to say is like, no, I don't want to bring, you know, it's
it's harming the people that actually are going through this, you know, these kind of
scenarios.
Yeah, well, I mean, a prime one of the last couple of weeks really was Anthony Manchester
denoted where he's had the accusations from previous girlfriends that he was harming and
beating them up.
But then there was a transcript from one conversation between one of his exes and his agent saying
that basically she was being forced to give these allegations against him and that she
she knows that he's not that kind of person.
She wants to withdraw it all back, which is being threatened and they're offering to pay
money and this and that.
So obviously, if she's coming out saying that, then the other two are going to be saying
it.
It's all been dropped in Brazil.
He came back to England.
He went to Greater Manchester Police, voluntary as well.
He wasn't summoned there.
He's had an interview.
They've let him go.
So he's not even on bail.
He's just gone and had an interview.
And then I know the other day, again, one of his exes has gone to the police now to
try and come out with whatever bullshit.
So that's quite open.
But because we've already seen this conversation where she's saying, look, I'm being forced,
threatened and bribed to say these things against him.
You know, so it makes you think, all right, it's all bullshit.
But yeah, I know what you're saying.
It's affecting the people that are actually a part of the real life of this situation.
Domestic violence and rape circumstances and whatever.
Yeah, dragging them through the mud when there shouldn't be.
The speculation, what we don't exactly know is there's an Arsenal player that's having
all these allegations as well.
But because it hasn't been made public and effectively they're still in the team as well.
So we don't exactly know who it is.
But there's been a few people that have had a party and sang and danced about who they
think it is.
But Thomas won't tell me who it is, to be fair.
But yeah, I suppose that's a better way of not knowing because then you can't exactly
say, all right, they're a bad person and then there's no stigma around it.
The team can still play football and there's no issues.
It's just as it needs to be.
But when it's all publicized, you know, again, with the Mason Greenwood one, if none of that
was made public, it wouldn't have been as big of a situation.
No one would have been as bothered, oh, all right, something's happened.
We don't know.
And then, yeah, it's still being played football.
It wouldn't have been suspended and it would have been formed, you know, because obviously
he never got charged.
He was never found guilty.
You know, it's not like he's fucking, was it Adam Johnson was he?
The fucking, the pedo.
Yeah, it's not like fucking he's been found guilty and then locked up.
It's just, yeah, everything's been pushed away.
But that's all down to the legal sort of things anyway.
If they are guilty, they'll get fired out in the long run.
It's just worrying how, you know, people can make an accusation like this, especially the
Russell Brown one and just throw it out there.
You know, it's harming people's, you know, character, but then it's also harming the
people that actually are going through this.
I'm not saying he didn't do this.
I'm just saying for me, I wouldn't, I would want to keep that stuff behind closed doors.
Yeah.
I would want to keep your stuff happened, then tell your story, not tell your story.
So it's like, you know, it's affecting people the way they think about scenarios and oh,
when you look at him now, you're going to think right.
He hasn't, you know, he hasn't been charged with it.
So it's not a good one, but this BBC presenter.
So it's not Hugh Edwards again.
Because has he been charged?
What's going on with that?
You know?
Because it's just disappeared off TV.
Yeah, I don't think he's been back on the TV since, and he never really done anything
wrong, did he?
He was paying money for pictures.
The BBC man, they're fucking corrupt, Eddie.
When you think about it.
Oh no, all these fucking TV lights have gone out.
The Jimmy Saddle thing, because apparently they knew about all that, and then the Princess
Diana thing, what they did.
They're fucking, yeah, they've got another one.
Yeah, so I've only seen.
Oh, mate, sorry, I can interrupt you.
Yeah, it's alright.
So the BBC man, they've gone on TV.
Yeah, they've gone on TV.
Yeah, so I've only seen.
Oh, mate, sorry, I can interrupt you.
Yeah, it's alright.
So the BBC, have you seen all these documentaries about Andrew Tai?
So there's a documentary about Andrew Tai, and guess what it's called?
The Dangerous Roars of Andrew Tai.
What the fuck, is it?
I'm definitely not seeing that one.
This is after all these charges have been chopped.
So how can you say it's a dangerous roar about Andrew Tai?
I think all but two charges have been dropped, as it stands.
I might be wrong.
I think, anyway, the majority of them, the more severe ones have been dropped.
So how can you call that a...
Until he's been charged and arrested, then put that out.
Don't just accuse someone of that.
And that's what the BBC are doing a lot like this.
That's leading back to what you just said about the Russell Branding thing.
That's manipulating people into thinking that he is what they want them to see him as.
It's like...
See, I like Andrew Tai, and I had this misogyny bullshit that comes with toxic masculinity.
So what do you want?
You want a man to be a man when you want him to be a man.
So when you need some work doing the house, you want a man who can fix it.
I ain't going down on that.
But what I'm saying is, you can't put out these kind of stuff until they've been charged
and went to court and got found guilty.
And for the BBC to put this stuff out...
I haven't seen nothing about the dangerous roar of Hugh Edwards, the dangerous roar of
Jimmy Savile on there.
Andrew Tai, the mindset of get your shit in place, do well, and try to become successful.
I mean, he's got no criminal record up until this point.
All I've seen him do...
The one thing that I see...
And I was like, yeah, but his words get twisted.
But a lot of those clips as well, that's him taking a piss.
So he's not being real when he's coming out with a bullshit, like, I might make more bitch,
make me two cups of coffee and I'll only drink one of them.
That's him taking a piss.
He's playing a character.
He said something and he was like, when I take my child to daycare, I'd rather be a
woman.
And then I didn't think nothing wrong with that.
And I kind of agree with that.
If my child's going to daycare, I don't know why I feel...
I don't know.
Maybe that's just because for years that's how it's been.
So it's embedded in your brain.
It's embedded in your brain.
But if someone just says to you, think of a sexual predator, think of a pedophile, what
is the gender that pops into mind straight away?
Yeah, you think like...
It's a male.
Yeah.
So childcare, just women in general, because they are the birth givers, the mothers, the
child carers.
So that's why you want them to look after the kids.
Because it literally is, that's the motherly instinct whether they are a parent or not.
Whereas a male, that's when not just sexual predator with an old fashioned thing, I know
at times a different name, but male discipline, I used to get slapped for no reason and that.
So those kind of things and old traits are still in your head of, what if it's a group
of men that are looking after my children?
Are they going to look after them in the right way?
And again, not just on the discipline side of things.
We all see the memes and videos of this is why women live longer and it's a fucking man
hanging off a fucking scapegoat pole, fucking doing something stupid.
And it's not, what if they're doing that, are they going to look after the kids properly
or are they going to let them run around with fucking scissors and shit?
So yeah, it's just a safer decision in your head to want it to be a woman.
Right, yeah.
As I said, sorry to the room, which is literally, obviously this is the BBC again that has years
of these accusations against their own and never released a documentary about it.
And then it just annoyed me mate that I've seen it.
I was like, that's so dangerous.
What?
Like what was so dangerous with what he was saying?
Get into the gym, get your shit sorted out.
Yeah.
Try, you know, don't have a coming of records.
But no, yeah, but so, sorry to interrupt.
So is another BBC news reporter or is he a presenter?
It's just saying a presenter.
They've not said any names on the clips that I've seen.
They're just saying there's reports from several women.
So they've been in contact via Tinder and other dating apps, sending messages, trying
to have meetups, apparently forcing meetups.
I don't know if you can force a meetup.
Yeah.
So over messages, yeah, let's meet up now, saying not to say to anyone who they are once
they've told their own identity.
I've seen, I think it was three different allegations that are going on at the moment.
When I've seen this stuff anyway, no one's been taken off the BBC or put on leave or
anything.
But as I did with the Hugh Edwards stuff, I started scrolling through the comments,
trying to find out any particular names and there was all the usual ones popping up.
So what the accusations have just been in front of there?
He's forcing people to meet up with him.
Yeah.
So sexually inappropriate messaging, trying to force meetups.
I'm sorry, if you go on Tinder, I reckon it's there.
Do you get what I'm saying?
Look, you know, it's, yeah, sorry.
You go on there, a lot of them are going on for fucking meetups and sex and fucking whatever.
And I guarantee like every girl has a message saying, I'll fuck you right now.
I don't know, along those lines I suppose.
If you're matching up with a celebrity, you've got to be wanting that anyway, aren't you?
For the fucking clothes.
Well, he's that celebrity Tinder, the reason one out there.
What's he called?
Is he called Raya?
Raya?
Raya really?
Might be.
So basically you have to pay a premium.
Yeah.
And not only that, so with Tinder you can get in there no matter what, but this one,
people need to accept that you're good looking enough to go on there.
Yeah.
Is he called Raya?
Raya?
Is it Raya?
Just talking, you know, this is what you're going for.
All the prep.
So it's Raya and it's how do you qualify for Raya?
So you know, basically you need to show that you've been on TV.
Yeah, it's one of them ones.
Or you've got money.
So yeah.
Well, as far as I know, it was just normal Tinder.
All the other fucking ones.
Whatever other fucking ones, I don't know.
But yeah, if you match up with a celebrity, you're going to go through with your stuff
forward and make it, yeah.
And then if you don't want to meet up or anything, you just don't do it.
So yeah, there was the usual suspects in the comments.
Gary Lineker, Mr. Blaby.
I think fucking Jeremy Vaughan was put in there again as well.
But the main one that a lot of people have been throwing out there, old Vernon Kay.
Vernon Kay?
Yeah.
Now I've always found him a little bit strange to be fair.
I never really rated him.
He had that scandal with that page three girl, didn't he?
Yeah.
I can't remember the girl's name.
I think he cheated on Tess Daly as well when he was married to her.
If they're not married anymore, that is.
I think the biggest scandal is on Tinder anyway, if anything.
But it's not.
Yeah.
It makes you laugh, all these things are coming out.
Trying to fucking force a fucking story and ruin someone's career where I didn't see
anything that he's sexually abused or fucking violated anyone.
It was just they've been sending messages.
He says not to say anything.
Send pictures back and forth of fucking parts.
And then yeah, wanting to meet up.
I don't know if he's paid for any pictures or anything as well.
But yeah, it's getting to the point with a lot of these where it's like, who fucking
cares?
I mean, literally, that's the only care between his wife and him.
Yeah.
And that's an Irish.
I think there's too many people out there now that are just trying to get just their
15 minutes of fame, get a bit of money from selling a story to the sun and fucking well
that's all it is.
I think that's all it is.
It's a quick book or whatever you want to call it.
Yeah.
A quick, you know, if you want to do that kind of shit, just do it on your fans.
I don't get it.
Put the work in a lease for it.
Well, that's the thing.
Most of these people are lying, aren't they?
They're all after a solid hustle where they can sit down on the phone and watch a couple
of bad votes and get paid.
But it doesn't work like that.
The real world, you have to get your hands, get stuck in fucking crap.
And that's real talk.
All the real scenarios in the real world.
Well, yeah, Vernon, I've never really been a fan of these.
You know, I'm not fucking not going to slag him off.
We actually had a good joke that I remembered fucking from years ago.
So I was it fucking you heard about the man with five witties condoms speak like a glove.
I remember him saying that on the radio and fucking that was a little bit of a giggle.
Probably one of his highlights.
Really?
Yeah.
Family fortunes.
There's the channel for whatever he used to do on there.
Oh, fuck you.
Yeah.
It's their breakfast show on a Sunday.
I'll see what I mean.
Yeah.
He's been on radio to for a couple of years now as well.
It was.
Yeah, it's not fucking too much.
But then on some more news, fucking our government, they've been fucking coming out with more
bullshit again this week.
Have you seen any of it?
No, I come across it.
And as it keeps on, I don't watch the news.
So I was just like, well, sorry, let me just the one thing I don't understand.
No, no, no.
Honestly.
I mean, how can you have a multimillionaire because he's a multimillionaire himself.
He's almost a billionaire.
His wife's dad is a billionaire.
Yeah.
How can you tell him what, how can he tell us what we need?
Yeah.
What's best for us when he's never walked to Barnsley in his life.
No, he's never walked up.
I don't want to keep saying I was listening to Northern Cities.
He's never gone to the corner shop.
He's never done a 72 hour fucking work week.
72 hour shift in the pit.
Fucking hell.
When he hasn't, he's fucking, he rides with money, leaves with money.
And then a lot of these things that he's coming out with, like he's wanting to fucking change
the inheritance tax, which benefits him by shifting.
So inheritance tax, if you have a property worth over, I think it's like 300,000 something
like that, then the, as you receive it, as your parents die, the government take like
50% of it.
So you're already fucking in debt from each other.
So he's wanting to raise it to like a million pounds or something.
So that benefits him and his friends and his family because they're all going to have properties
less than that value at that point then.
So he fucking keeps them outside of the tax range.
It's a weird one because I love the guy.
It comes across well, but you've not said enough of the brick then.
It's just, how can you have people, and this is the problem because they have to go to
all these fancy schools like Etern, Oxford, Cambridge to get into politics.
But then, you know, how do they know what the average income household needs?
Well, they don't.
So look, I think the average income in the UK, I want to say it's fairly free, but other
than that, including London, because I was checking it.
And I think the average income with two people working with two kids was like about 49k.
So how can he tell someone that's on 49k with two kids?
And then he wants, you know what I mean?
And that's the thing I never understand is where I feel like Donald Trump, golly, if
that makes sense.
Like, I don't know how he got, he understands what the people needed at that time as well.
Well, Trump's done it again the other day.
He's given his speech and straight away saying, if he gets elected again, immediately he's
going to shut all the borders because there's a load of immigrants getting through at the
moment.
So the fence back down or something?
Yeah, yeah.
So he's saying he's going to sort that out, sort out the fucking education in schools.
So basically stop all these forcing the kids to learn about all the different genders and
confusing them essentially.
And then fucking this and that.
Everything that had come out was spot on and it was a chair, full chairs from the whole
crowd, each one.
And then you got Biden not saying anything really.
Four on a slew.
Yeah.
So yeah, really she's fucking trying to do his own version of it.
And it's just, I saw an interview with him the other day.
I don't know who the presenter was that was asking him the questions, but she asked him,
yes or no, is the HS2 going to be built from Birmingham to Manchester?
And he's skirting around, he's like, well, we've got the foundation, blah, blah.
She's like, yes or no question.
Is it going to be made?
Is it going to be built?
You've got the blah, blah.
And she's like, no, you're not answering the question.
You're not allowing me to answer the question.
She's saying it's a yes or no.
Is it going to be built or not?
And he just wouldn't give it.
And then that gets fucking announced that it's getting scrapped.
So that's billions of pounds that's been wasted.
You know, because I heard a lot of the, essentially the contractors that were going to get the
job to carry on doing it, they're all kicking off.
But it's the owners of the big companies that have been kicking off, which they're only
fucking voicing out their opinion because they're losing out a million to pounds now.
I'm sorry, it's all about money all the time.
Yeah, it is.
I mean, I would love to see someone come in and just change it.
Since obviously we've been adults, no one's come in and had that Donald Trump had here
that I can remember.
Yeah, yeah.
No one's said the right thing that you think.
Yeah.
But you know, you're never going to get someone that's going to always go with your point
of view, but it's like understanding more than going through another direction.
Does that make sense?
Rather than just going...
Well, see, because I've barely ever voted to be fair, but there is a party that it's
being led from the average Joe basically, because of everything that's been going on
with...
The immigration.
Yeah, the immigration, all the stock oil protests, and essentially all the policies coming from
the Tories and Labour, what they're trying to force.
It's a group of...
They are educated people, but they're still working class.
So I'm just going to try and find the party.
But essentially it's one that I am going to vote for when I can see it.
So parties in the UK.
Is that brilliant first?
That was always a different one.
I really should have fucking...
Yeah, well, we didn't know we were going to vote.
Yeah, I wasn't expecting that.
We already got off on this.
Is it democratic?
No, because that's Lib Dems.
No, no, Lib Dems is a different one still.
So you only really think of the two, obviously, Labour and Conservatives.
Yeah.
Alliance, is it them?
Oh, fuck it.
This cracks me up.
Every website you go on, you have to accept that there's cookies.
Why ask me to accept the cookies?
Just let me on the fucking websites.
I should have looked properly and got it all.
Basically, they are doing everything for us.
They're not going to bring out their own agendas.
Yeah, make the rich rich and the poor poor.
Yeah, they're literally...
They're wanting to kick out all these illegal immigrants that are staying in all the hotels
and everything and just look after everyone.
So try and help out the poverty.
It's like Birmingham City Council, they're broke.
Yeah.
And one of the major factors of that is going to be because it's costing the councils, not
the government, the local councils, it's costing them around three million a day to house these
illegal immigrants in the Premier Rings and fucking all that.
The thing with illegal immigrants, if they come by say you have international laws and
that come in, so it makes it harder for you then you can't just go, nah.
Because the convoy says that international law that...
It's all about where they've come from, the journey and all that comes in supply.
Yeah, I get it that it's harder, but to have the cheek to give them fair enough food, but
cricket lessons.
It's one of them again, because there's that much happening.
You got to detour.
It's unfair for the ones that actually have gone through the process for safety and the
ones that have done it for the benefits.
Do you know what I mean?
It's a double ended sword as such because there are people that actually have fled places
for a reason and seek this country for opportunity and everything and everything it can and should
be.
And to those ones that just want to come here for the easy ride.
That's what the majority of it is though, unfortunately, because you're looking at them,
especially in these war torn countries and the bulk of these people that you see that
are fucking over here are males that could be put into like fighting for their country,
but they're not gonna.
And they're just over here just living the free fucking dream and it's a disgrace because
not that fucking the UK is in the same situation, but it wouldn't be as easy for us to go over
there and fucking just immigrate.
The only thing I have a problem with the immigration is obviously you have to go through wherever
you come from.
You have to come through a lot Europe to end up on an island.
So we just then it's, you know, because every other country just passed.
They know where they want to go in it.
Yeah.
So the immigrants know where they want to come to over here.
But every other country that they go through, they've got it.
They don't allow them to stay.
So they just kick them out.
It's not when you see them on the boat and the land of France instead of fucking the UK
and friends just look, no, fuck off.
And they just turn them around.
Yeah.
I didn't think they could do it.
I honestly didn't think they could do that.
Yeah.
It's literally that they have the coast guards and they just turn the ship around.
So they don't even let them fucking get to the border.
Well, then as again, it's a shame then for the people that are trying to get here for
a reason more than just being, you know, just I don't want to say sponging, but for the
easy rise and such people that want to come here because there's no other choice.
Yeah.
I accept all of that, but the majority aren't doing it for the right reason.
I think Australia have got it the best way though really because they've essentially got
an island next to theirs, which it's deemed as a prison camp, but it's not, which is ironic
because Australia was a prison originally.
It's like an immigration censor then.
So yeah, so yeah, it's separate.
Well, not really processed, but it's a separate little island.
So anyone that tries to fucking legally enter their country, they put into this isolation
camp and then they stay there.
So there's no news reporters or anyone allowed to go in there to fucking record it because
apparently he's like a prison where it's literally you've got like a tent, a sleeping bag and
ration food.
And no, as I say, for the ones that are trying to do it for the right reasons, it's not fair.
But when it's the people trying to do it just because they want to fucking live a fucking
great life because everything is handed to them for no reason over here, then yeah, it's
a good thing.
But we're not Australia, unfortunately.
But this isn't where I wanted to go with you.
No, it's just obviously.
Yeah.
Obviously with politics and immigration is a big thing at the moment.
Yeah.
I always feel growing up, immigration has always been a big thing.
Immigration always was.
I mean, to be fair, the country was half built, you know, after the wars, bringing Indians
and Pakistanis over and that, you know, helping rebuild the country.
You know, it was all well and good.
But even as a kid, I always remember the borders at Kalo always being, you know, full and people
trying to like get on the lorries, destined to come to the UK.
Even as a kid, I remember all that and you think, well, that was 20 years ago and it's
still happening.
So obviously there's something fundamentally not right.
And you know, if you're a boy, you're putting more into it and having the same results,
something's not right in any walk of life.
If you're spending more and it's still not working fundamentally, something's not right.
Well, yeah, it does make you laugh because, as you say, they keep throwing budgets and
budgets at it.
I'm sure they give France, I think, an extra 40 million this year to stop them coming from
Kalo to the UK.
But I'm sure in that time, more people have arrived from Kalo in the same period, they're
paying more people, like they're paying the French government to come down and more of
them have come over.
Yeah.
But that's just applied because I feel France is just like, next year we'll get more out
of it.
You know what I mean?
It's all about money all the time.
Well, it definitely is.
It definitely is.
I feel like with immigration, it's fundamentally wrong.
And you've got to do it right by the people that do need it.
But then also, the people that don't need it, you've got to ask yourself, what are they
coming here for at the same time?
Does that make sense?
Yeah, yeah.
So the people that do need it, you've got to understand why they're running away from
a arranged marriage, all the stuff that we can't even comprehend.
And then the ones that just want to come here and as you said, just kick it back, play the
computer or whatever and just have an easy ride with the friends that they come over
with.
Yeah.
And that's always been a dilemma and I suppose it will be for the next few years.
Yeah, it's not something that's going to go away just overnight or over the next couple
of days really.
It's a strange fucking situation.
We're fortunate we don't have to feel what they feel.
We do have a good enough life.
Yeah.
And I feel like, as I said, it is a double ended sword because there are people that
really need to come here to get away.
And at the same time, there's really people that don't need to but they've come here for
a different reason.
If you were to have anyone as PM, who would you have?
To be fair, none of them really stand out.
You mean just the person in general?
Someone that you agree with a lot of their values.
So for me, I was just saying, I always feel like Piers Morgan is always, I don't agree
with anything he says, but as I said, you're not going to get someone that agrees with
you 100% of the time.
Yeah.
So that's why I feel like Piers Morgan, for me, but I know it would never happen, but
Donald Trump for Prime Minister would be fucking great, mate.
To be fair, that's why I did like fucking Boris at the time as well, because he's sort
of like the British Donald Trump with a personality, but he had a hard ride.
You know, all the COVID stuff came out.
But then he was breaking, he was doing all that bollocks as well.
And so like, how can you find you for doing what he was doing?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
You know, he was in at the wrong time because everything that happened, all the COVID stuff
and all the people around him not directing him right.
If it was five years earlier, he would have been all right for four years, but he was
just thrown in at the wrong point.
I just can't remember a time likely where Britain's running smoothly, there's always
fucking...
We've never had a fucking good government, to be honest.
I mean, the amount of people that I've seen after all this shit that Rishi, not Rishi,
yeah, Rishi come out with the other day saying that we haven't had a good person in charge
since fucking Margaret Thatcher.
And there's a lot of controversy around her.
Yeah, it's like you think about it, like, you know, we mentioned the London U.L.S. scheme.
Yeah, which I was going to go on for a short while.
It's a fucking load of bollocks.
The emissions thing, it's like, look, you just want all these fucking bollocks, politicians
coming into place and just fucking, yeah, that's 12 quid a day, it's going there.
People can't afford 12 quid a day.
No.
12 fucking quid a day, mate.
Well, get on to it, mate, because I was working in London recently and so it's 12.50 a day.
Fuck you.
And that's it.
They're just on to it.
That's the decon, it's another one.
He's just out of touch with reality and it like, it's a fucking full on.
So with the U.L.S. scheme, which I'm surprised none of these fucking activists or anything
could have fucking kicked off about it because less, you less.
You know, you think how much of an insult was lesbian, you know, being called a less
back in the back.
Fuck off your less.
You know, so having it fucking in bold capital letters as you're entering London, calling
people a less.
Fucking, it's been all too, yeah.
But yeah, 12.50 a day and they've recently extended the border of it.
It's gone even further.
Yeah, it's pretty much as soon as you touch fucking the insult of the M24, you've got
to pay.
And what are you paying for?
What are they trying to do?
Stop people driving to London to get the train or bus or whatever.
Yeah, essentially that's what it's doing because people can't afford to buy the 12.50 to go
into London.
They expected to use the public transport to get in, which costs more than 12.50.
And if you're not driving in, it's lowering the emissions entering London.
So with the the science sort of things where they've been doing the tests, there was emails
that were fucking love come out.
So said that the cons fucking number two had the reports from whatever scientists that
was doing the testing to see if the emissions had actually lowered, what health benefits
it had and on vulnerable people or people with asthma and children and stuff.
And the report essentially says there's been no difference.
Just a little bit.
Yeah, there's no proof that the emissions are actually causing more bodily harm to people
with asthma or children or whatever.
And so Sadiq's number two, his deputy emailed back saying this report needs to be changed
to make it sound like basically it is effective.
And we need to fucking make more money.
To make it sound like they're doing it for reason.
It's an absolute disgrace to try and falsify fucking scientific evidence just to gain more
money.
It's a joke.
And he's another one.
I know it's a politics fucking theme tune where he's getting asked questions and he's
just dancing around with shit that doesn't even make sense.
And that's what they do, they try and use all these big words to confuse people like
us.
But there's too many people out there now that are clued onto it.
They are a bit more...
That's been yours a bit, isn't it?
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, obviously we're not the most intellectual people.
And articulate.
Well, I'm not.
I know.
But yeah, I get what you're saying.
Yeah, I try and think a lot.
I mean, even down to pronouncing words, I always struggled with the T H pronunciation.
So it would be the, the, the, the.
You know, it's not something that we naturally think about.
But it was just because my uncle fucking, as I was going through my apprenticeship,
he pulled me up on it.
And so I used to sit there after fucking work at 16, just trying to pronounce my T H's
properly.
Yeah.
And we don't do it, though, do we?
You know, we just, we talk fast.
We fucking just bang the words out of our mouths without thinking about what it is.
But a lot of the time I'll slow my speech down, make me sound more brummy really, because
I do slow it down.
Not as much as a fucking Yamato.
Fucking cunts.
And yeah, I do try and think about what I'm saying.
But still, that's just to pronounce words, not necessarily to come out with bigger words,
because we're not all that big brained, are we?
Yeah.
Well, it's just, you know, as you said, it's just with every politician, it's like, it's
all smoke and mirrors.
It is, yeah.
You ask them one thing, they try to lead you to somewhere else.
Well, if you look back at the stats, like, fuck the stats, yes or no.
Yeah.
But do you remember the thing, what happened with Birmingham when they went, well, they
have got a mission zone in place.
Yeah.
And it was meant to come into play on a certain day.
And it was like, off the top of my mind, I think you need a Euro 5 engine and you'll
be fine.
Anything.
So people went out, obviously changed their cars for Euro 5 to find out then that car
didn't meet the criteria.
Yeah.
So these people then, I don't know, brought a newer car so they didn't have to pay the
£8 to get in because it's £8 for Birmingham 1.
Yeah, anyway.
£9 is the price.
Is it not fucking out?
I don't know.
So, yeah, so people brought, you know, a newer car with this engine, just to be told, like,
two weeks before it opened, what came into play.
Well, no, we was wrong.
Yeah, it's this engine now, not fucking out.
That's just typical politics.
Yeah.
Well, I remember with the Birmingham one, I've not looked at the stats recently, but
there was that many people that hadn't paid the congestion fee that it was like 160,000
people hadn't paid.
And so there were millions, but because there was that many people not paying it, they were
backlogged and they couldn't keep up with trying to get the fines because it would have
been more than 160,000.
But yeah, if you don't pay it, it's a £160 fine and you don't even get an early payment
like reduction on your fee, like if you get a parking ticket, you can pay £34 instead
of £70 if you pay it within 14 days.
I always feel with stuff like this, there should be a thing where you get like five
passes free a year or something.
Because you know, like, I don't know, like an incentive like that, because I don't bother
going into town anymore because of the bullshit.
But I'd rather drive.
It's only because of work, why the fuck can you go?
I'd rather drive and try and get the bus.
I mean, look at all the shit you see happens on buses and public transport.
It's not safe enough.
So you know, you should want people to drive into town to think, oh, well, I enjoy town
actually.
I don't come here enough.
Yeah.
And especially with the price of the parking that you pay when you're in there as well.
Yeah, it's like, so you're paying, let's just say you're going into the town centre
for four or five hours, you're doing a little shop, maybe watching a film or a bite to eat.
You're paying around £30 just to go there.
So that's your congestion charge.
And you're looking at the bank, £20 for parking for half a day these days, ain't you?
And then you've got your shopping, your food, whatever on top.
What we used to do when we was kids, I mean, used to be like fucking A2P to get the bus
into town.
It was 35 or 37 pence.
I'm trying to think of when we were towards the end of school really.
Yeah, I remember when the bus was 12p mate.
Fucking yeah.
Because again, randomly as a fucking kid, I didn't like copper coins because it was
all round, horrible colour, I just didn't like it.
But I remember having to fucking keep it two pence with a 10 pence to fucking pay 12p for
me fucking bus fare.
I mean, that's a fucking strange concept now, using change.
Minimal change to fucking pay for the bus, you just swap your card now, don't you?
But yeah, it's fucking, we used to go up with like 15 quid and we'd still come back, we'd
fucking get the bus, we'd have a McDonald's fucking boy game and whatever and fucking
toddle around for hours in and out of shops and then come back.
Fucking that'd be a full day.
We used to go up town.
No, I mean, we used to go to the pub and we'd still come back.
That'd be a full day, it's not breaking the bank.
We used to go up town, no reason just to go up town.
Yeah, literally just walk around and that, innit?
I remember fucking bike roads up there and all sorts.
But yeah, you wouldn't want to do that now.
I remember the last time I got on a bus actually, it would have been within the first year of
driving and I was like, I don't want to pay the parking fees because even back then it
was expensive enough.
And it was for Christmas shopping, so I was like, I'll get the bus and I fucking hated
it.
You know, he's sitting on there, he's fucking stunk because someone hadn't had a fucking
watch or something.
It's loud, it was back in the day when the phones weren't that good and someone was still
playing the fucking music loud on it.
Yeah, and the speaker thing.
Yeah.
And you know what I fucking heard about was it, as soon as October comes, healing on, fuck
me, mate, it's not that hot.
No.
It's not that hot.
It's hot.
And then when it's hot in the summer, because they only have those pull down windows, no
ventilation if you ride the fucking back, then at the back you've got the heat here
for the engine.
Yeah.
Fuck me.
Yeah, it's just shit.
Heat, getting too weird.
Right, so.
Yeah, I mean, to be fair, fucking, there was one other thing that I fucking, well, two
more things from what Rishi fucking come out with.
So.
Because we did go home.
I know.
Fucking hell.
It's what I come for.
The real talk, real topics, the real love situations.
So it's going to be mandatory now for the kids to stay in school until they're 18.
So essentially they're making it the same as the Americans.
I thought that was the case anyway.
No, so you could still leave at 16 and go and get a job or go into college or whatever.
And then, so 17 and 18 was for your A levels.
So he's scrapping the A level system now.
Well, it's not scrapping it, it's changing it.
And he's going to make you do more subjects.
These kids don't need more subjects.
They need fucking real lessons.
It's fucking, like, if they want to learn science or if they want to learn geography
or fucking something particular, yeah, let them choose that.
And fair enough, maths and English is going to be mandatory.
So I understand that.
But with maths, it needs to be what you need in the real world.
Taxis and fucking shit, they need to teach that how to do those subjects, not fucking algebra.
Because unless you want to learn about it, if you want to go into advanced mathematics, then yes, learn that.
But otherwise, teach the kids the basic maths that you need to use.
I saw a fucking TikTok video overlaid in the other day.
She's gone into Sainsbury's or something, she's bought two bottles of water, two pounds each.
She's given the girl behind the till a fiver.
And the woman behind the till wasn't given any change.
She was like, I'm waiting for my change, I need a pound back.
She's like, no, it's five pounds.
No, two bottles, two pounds.
Now, bear in mind, this girl's fucking scanned the two bottles.
And she should be typing in the five pound note, like, five pound as currency that she's accepted.
And it should tell her what change she's got to give anyway.
But no, she's fucking, no, two and two is five.
It isn't bad, it's four.
I gave you five, I need a pound back.
Well, that's a real video.
Yeah, this woman was fucking, she was like, I was in tears because no one was fucking defending me.
The girl behind the counter was crying because she was confused to fuck.
She couldn't understand how two and two was five, not four.
And don't get me wrong, I think there's some fucking form of mental disability with that girl behind the till because...
Yeah, you should know what two is.
Yeah, it's the fucking, that's...
When you're working on a till.
Yeah, that's nursery fucking level of maths.
But, you know, the maths that you should be taught is if you're working on a till,
you should be able to calculate change roughly without needing the assistance from the till.
You know, so if someone's giving you a hundred pound and you've got to give fucking 12 pound 50 back,
you should be able to fucking work that out.
You know, I get it can be a bit hard when you're trying to work out little pennies and whatever,
but, you know, you should be able to do it.
That should be what is getting taught.
Not all the fucking pie and fucking this and that.
But yeah.
What was the other thing you was on about there?
So now he's fucking going on about the genders.
He's attacking the Sam Smiths.
Not the one like that one.
No. So he's essentially hit the fucking, his own nail in his own coffin.
So he's saying, you know, you can't just fucking claim to be any gender you want to be and this and that.
Which goes back to 2010.
There was an act that was bought out.
So by law, he's breaking it by saying that you can't do whatever you fucking want.
So a law that was fucking passed by these Tory cunts saying that you can do and be and fucking well,
whatever you fucking want with him saying no, that no, if you're a man, you're a man, you're a woman, you're a woman.
Unless you physically had the sex change, you can't just claim to be whatever you want to be.
Well, this thing has been dragging on for a lot of time.
I don't know what you're trying to think the right word.
This build up of genders has been a really slow burner and it just really needs to come to a head now.
And everyone needs some validation because no one wants to say I would do the wrong thing anymore.
Because essentially, whatever getting at is we don't care.
Be whatever you want.
Just don't, yeah, it's just don't tell other people.
Yeah, we want everyone to just be happy.
You know, just do what you want to do.
Just don't rub it in the faces.
We don't need to fucking see your blue hair rancing around.
We tell you to be blue.
Yeah, and fucking trying to fucking force it on me.
We don't care.
We want everyone to be happy.
Just be your authentic self without trying to enforce your authentic self and your beliefs and everyone else.
There's a lot of bullshit going on.
No one needs someone telling you what you're doing wrong.
You're live constantly.
You just do you, but fucking...
Do you want.
Yeah, you know, if you want fucking more of our debates on it, you can listen to earlier episodes if you haven't already.
We have gone into more detail about our opinions on these things.
It's not really opinions, not that we've ever really been harsh, apart from to Sam Smith.
That's self-inflicted.
He deserves it.
Prick.
But yeah, it's been fucking a bit of a rollercoaster week on that fucking sort of things.
So I don't see him being fucking in power much longer now.
You know, when it actually comes to others...
The next is just going to be just as bad, mate.
Yeah, we're never going to fucking get anywhere.
It's just one thing after another.
But yeah, hopefully politics sort itself out and we get someone that does right for us.
Hopefully, yes, but optimistically, no.
But as I was leaning towards earlier, yeah, it appears Morgan told the person that we're never going to get anyone
that's on 40, 50 grand a year getting in fucking charge of the country.
No, yeah, it's just someone that's on Westview.
Yeah, understands, yeah.
But yeah, he does fucking...
He's more in the real world than fucking Ritchie's anyway.
Yeah, because I reckon like Ritchie Sheenak's probably been to the Bahamas more times than he's been to Bolton.
Do you get what I'm saying?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So it's just...
It's like that fit Picanter that he was filling up during that fuel crisis.
I think he's a bad fucking...
And also, I'm not just talking Northern cities.
It's just they've got Bolton.
It just sounds more, you know what I mean?
Well, yeah, anywhere where you struggle...
I suppose it is North though, really.
And I'm saying like in that sense like...
Do you think out of London?
Yeah, yeah.
Because when you go South, you go down to fucking Devon and all that.
I do feel like everyone thinks London is their own different country, isn't it?
I think they're their own different country.
Fucking aegis.
I mean, it is funny.
It is a different world, aren't it?
Yeah, because it's a whole different fucking...
You drive along and you go through a fucking one area and it's like...
There's a full bunch of Orthodox Jewish people and it's got the full kitted out,
the long coats, the curly hair, fucking the hats on and that, look.
And then the next one you got fucking an Hispanic area,
not a fucking Polish area and this and that.
It's fucking...
It's full culture.
I mean, you get that in a lot of places anyway, but it's more defined,
individual fucking, like, place of an area.
It's like what Neil Warne, except the football manager,
you can tell him we're in London, ref, because you can tell.
You can always tell.
Nine pound a point, you can fucking tell.
Graves made it.
The way that everything else is more expensive.
Even just like a coke, what the fuck?
Yeah, it's fucking horrendous.
That's horrendous.
We'll be here all day.
Oh no, we could do, we could do.
We're rattling on.
But we will end it shortly.
We've just got a quick email.
And it is from our favourite little listener, Kirsty.
Fucking another little question.
So she's asking, if you could super glue your balls to anything for 24 hours,
then it belongs to you.
What would you choose?
Oh, well, the winning lottery ticket.
I think something to do with money for me.
Yeah.
Literally, even if I had to hold a briefcase full of like as much as I could hold.
Yeah.
It's just anything.
Yeah, so something of high value.
Yeah, maybe like a gold bar.
You want a gold bar worth a million quid.
You'd have to be sitting on it though, because otherwise if you're standing,
that's going to make your sack sag even more than anything.
Yeah, I mean, it'd be worth it, mate.
You know, the risk.
Yeah, I suppose spend a couple of grand getting full sack reductions afterwards.
You know, fucking because we've already got the fucking line there, haven't we?
So it's not like another scar is going to fucking matter.
And if you sit down all day, you know, piss yourself.
Get a piss on the gold bar.
So yeah, gold bar for you.
Yeah, it's got to be something like that, because there's no point
fucking just gluing your balls to a massive mansion.
I suppose if there's a really car you want, you can kind of squat in the car
and then just sit in the car for 24 hours.
Well, yeah, I suppose.
Or the house, you could do the same.
Just sit in the house.
If you want to fucking go anywhere around the house, you can't, can you?
I've been telling you for 24 hours.
I'm saying that because a house.
That's what I'm saying.
Could you fucking get away with gluing the house keys to your balls with that case?
Again, fucking look at you are full of money.
Yeah, it is any.
That's that's I think it's anything that's going to bring value, isn't it?
Yeah, I mean, lottery ticket.
That's fucking you got to know that it's the way to get that brown pick and former.
Yeah.
I mean, again, I suppose the fucking easiest one for would be then
the fucking what is it, the big fucking safe in the back.
Oh, fuck it.
Oh, yeah.
It's got underground stuff in there.
Yeah.
So just go in there because anything in there is going to be worth millions.
You know, they've got stuff and it's really weird.
So when a pope dies, nothing.
That's so like all these documents that you see and anything that I've hushed.
Everything can't get released, I think, for 200 years after they die.
So it's had no relevance in 200 years.
No one's got a jump, a fucking jump, the fifth or whatever.
Yeah.
But apparently, obviously, they've got more stuff worth a value.
Basically, one of the richest countries in the world because what they've got in the vault is worth billions upon billions.
Yeah, but I mean, a full country like 20 miles in time, Vatican City or something.
It's only small, isn't it?
Yeah.
I don't think it's even 20 miles, but it's tiny.
It's like Monaco.
It's like a.
Yeah, it's smaller than fucking London anyway.
Yeah.
So I think that would be the fucking easiest one to go to.
And if you could get in there.
Just get out.
Yeah.
Just the fucking.
It'd be one of those long old school.
Yeah, I was about to say.
I wouldn't fucking the doors, like fucking.
Or is it just a fucking an old wooden door?
It's just got fucking bare security outside or fucking.
Yeah, I reckon it's an old door.
But in front of the old door, there's like new high tech like eye scanners and shit like that.
Yeah.
Yeah, corrupt as well, but that's one of the stories.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, we'll save that for another podcast.
But yeah, thanks for that question, guys.
As always, if you do want to send us in a question, email us at realtalkingpod at gmail.com.
X is at Ash and JD.
Obviously, YouTube, if you're not already watching, why not?
But it is on Real Talking Podcasts on YouTube.
And also don't forget, it is Key Memento.
He's our lovely sponsor this week.
Go check him out on Instagram, the Etsy store.
It's all going to be in the links as well.
So yeah, fucking hope you enjoyed that.
And yeah, keep him coming.
We want more emails and questions and that.
So actually start sending them in, please.
And anything else, Ash?
No.
You all good?
That's it. I think we've covered maybe too much.
Yeah, fucking all over the place again.
That's where it takes you.
You just got to follow the journey.
Who thought fucking...
It's the crime.
No.
Yeah.
Oh, they saw us.
Yeah, who would expect fucking Andrew Tate and Rishi Sunak to be fucking a part of the same episode?
You just don't, do you?
You wouldn't get in the way of our ass, mate.
No, no, no.
Fucking, especially with Sam Smith, innit?
Well, that's it.
We don't discriminate, I suppose.
No.
Thomas Pate.
Whoops.
Yeah, we'll see you next week.
