Hello and welcome to jasonnewland.com. My name is Jason Newland. This is Let Me Bore You to Sleep. Please only listen every day.

Please only listen when you can safely close your eyes. So, yeah. So, welcome.

Thank you for listening. It's Saturday the... I'll have to look at my phone for this one. What's it? Saturday the 16th of May 2020 and it's 2am in the morning.

Well, it's 2am or it's 2 in the morning. And yeah. So, quickly just say... Not quickly.

There's no hurry is there really. There's no hurry. Nothing needs to be quick.

Unfortunately, some things are always quick but it doesn't bother me. And yeah, there's... I got a lady contacted me. I'm going to pronounce her name wrongly.

It's Berangere. Berangere B. Anyway, I spoke to her on the phone. And the reason she contacted me... Was it three weeks ago? Something like that.

Asking if... She said she really enjoyed listening to my whisper recordings and she'd be interested... Would she... She'd like to do one herself. So, I didn't really understand what she meant. I had a look on her Facebook page.

She was... I thought, yeah, she's nice. So, I gave her a call. No, that's not how it happened.

I just... I said, well, what is it? What do you mean? And she said, well, I spoke to her and basically, she wanted to do a... Make her own whisper recording. And I said, well, if you do that, I will stick it on my podcast. So, and she's done it.

And she sent it to me last night. So, what I did is I had a quick listen through it. It was a little bit too quiet for me because you need headphones, really.

I was trying to listen to it on my... Actually, I tried to listen to it on the laptop and it's not a very high volume. Plus, my ears are nearly 50 years old. So, and so what I did is I even made up a logo, like an image for the recording.

And I put down like headphones, listen with headphones logo on it. And I uploaded it to four of my podcasts, the main one, Deep Sleep Whisper, and Jason and Re-Hypnosis Service, that podcast. Don't get many people going on that one, but it's there anyway.

And I put it on two of my sleep hypnosis podcasts, two of the main ones that I've got. And that was, what time was that? That was this afternoon. So, it's late afternoon time.

So, I just checked back and I made a logo. So, I made an image and put lots of work into it. Not lots of work, but a little bit, a little bit of an effort, a tiny little bit.

But I uploaded it and everything. And I put down a guest whisperer and I put down her name and then put in the title and also listen with headphones. Of course, that might just have been my hearing because a lot of the whisper stuff on YouTube is a lot quieter than my whisper stuff.

And so, anyway, I've uploaded them. And so far, she's had, when this was half an hour ago, I checked this, that's probably 10 minutes ago, that's 16 minutes ago, 215 downloads just in like a few hours. So, 215 people have listened to her.

And this was the first time she'd ever done anything like this. First time she'd made a recording and spoken on a, you know, like that and had complete strangers listening. And you could say it was 215, that's not a lot, but it is for your first time, for your first recording to have, and it's only going to grow, it will be to probably 5, by tomorrow it will be about 500.

But by tomorrow afternoon, you know, another 12 hours. So it's altogether, it might end up being about a thousand listens to that recording. And I don't think anybody on their very first recording would get a thousand, would get that many listens.

So yeah, cool. So yeah, so I'm going bravo to Baryonti. Baryonti.

Baryonti. Baryonti. Baryonti.

Baryonti. Baryonti. Baryonti.

Baryonti. Genuinely, it's weird because it's a French name and my mom was French. She's half French.

But it was like she was mixed, I mean her feet were French, her ears were French, and her hands and one buttock, the rest of her was English. And because I think she's, her mum was French and her dad was Cockney, Londoner, as far as I'm aware. I don't have that much information, but yeah, her name was Francesca, or is, I say was, I mean she might still be, might still be around, I don't know, I didn't know.

So, well done for renewing, I'll go back to it again, come on, Berangery, Berangery. I think it's been, I think I've established I'm not great with names, and once I met someone I was working in the office, in one of my jobs or whatever, and I was trying to sort of spell their name, and I was really struggling, I said, how do you spell it, how do you spell your name? I can't, it's like, I could hear the pronunciation, like how do you spell, come on man, help me out here, I've got to guess this, I couldn't Google it, there was no internet, well there was internet, but I didn't have access to the internet because of what I would have been doing all day long, had I had access to the internet.

I would have gone home very tired, but at the same time I hadn't have done much work.

And this lady said, well I'll spell it for you, A-N-N, I said, what's that, yeah, oh, no E, no, no E, no S, no, no S, W, no, are you sure, yeah, I think I'd know if my name was An-moo, An-moo, oh, are you sure it's not Anna, it's not Anna, it's Ann, it should be, it's the Irish spelling, what do you mean the Irish spelling, well there's a Welsh spelling, Scottish spelling, in fact I think there's even a spelling in Egyptian, it sounds a little bit different, but it's different, it sounds a bit different,

and it's a squiggly, squiggly, I wonder if people that are brought up in China, for example, Chinese people, I guess, people that are brought up and somehow learn to write and read in the, you know, most languages, I suppose, but you know, the boxes and stuff that they have, I wonder if they see English writing for the first time and think, what the hell is that, and laugh and think, how, what, how could they be able to read that?

It makes no sense, I wonder, I'm not an expert on anything, I think I've established that, but I do sometimes see some of this, very, very ancient languages, like Hebrew or, I don't know, sort of Middle East-y kind of, doesn't seem to be any full stops, it just seems to be one long sentence, I was like, wow, I guess it should, I mean I was talking to a friend the other day and I was saying how annoying it is when they've got, I wasn't being rude, I mean I was just saying I find it annoying

when there's, I'm trying to watch a TV program in the middle of the night and there's someone taking up a third of the screen doing sign language, I wasn't, genuinely wasn't being rude, it's just my TV is not big enough, it doesn't offer that service, my TV screen, it's not big enough, and so I'm trying to watch Minder at three o'clock in the morning and I've got this person, it's very distracting, and she said, are you aware that my daughter's deaf?

And I said, yeah, of course. She said, well why are you going on about how you're annoyed with sign language people? I said, well, it's annoying. She said don't you find it a bit insensitive? I said, no, not really.

I said, I think what would be insensitive would be me saying that I assume that all deaf people would only watch television in the middle of the night, which can't be true surely, because these are the same programs that are on in the afternoon, but they have sign language, which is great, but surely, I can't, like, I expect people that have got hard of hearing or hearing issues to stay up all night to watch telly. And trust me, I'm talking from a hard of hearing perspective because I was deaf in one ear when I was a kid, so, but I didn't realize I was deaf. I just thought it was really quiet.

I thought it was a really quiet household. I thought, I can't believe I've got three brothers and it's really not very noisy at all. I like this.

But it turned out I was deaf in one ear. I had to have an operation when I was eight or when I was seven. So yeah, I know, I don't know what it's like to be completely deaf, but to have one ear not working is definitely a, I think I might have some problems with the other ear as well, but possibly making that up to try and dig myself out of this hole.

No, I do find it annoying. I do. I don't find people doing sign language annoying.

I just find people doing sign language on programs that I want to watch because it distracts me. It distracts me. Subtitles distract me.

A fly landing on the screen of the television in the summer distracts me from watching the TV program. I don't like it, genuinely. I'd have to turn it off.

Come on. I just, I need just a TV program on. Sometimes I watch a film and if subtitles come on, I turn it off.

Not because I don't like subtitles. Well, I don't like subtitles, but reading and watching, I don't want to, it's like reading a book and watching a movie at the same time. I can't do both.

I just generally can't. It's just, no. I'd rather have overdubbing.

I prefer that. And Netflix have had quite a few TV shows from, I think Norway and maybe or Sweden, some place like that. I know they're not the same place, but they're beautiful places.

That's what I mean. They're too lovely. I just remembered I've got quite a few people in Norway that listen to me.

I love Norway. You are the best, bestest ever. And Sweden, of course.

Wonderful. Absolutely way better than people from Wales. Apart from anyone listening from Wales.

Wonderful. Wonderful. I love Wales.

I used to go to Wales when I was a kid. We used to go camping. Of course, I had no choice.

So it's not like I went there, you know, on purpose. But you know, I mean, I did go and I enjoyed it. And especially the journey home.

No, I did. It was good. It was good.

Lovely beaches. Very nice beaches. And if you like beaches.

And those were the days when it was hot. In the summer, it used to be, it seemed to be more predictable. The constant heat seemed to be, but I don't know if that's just lies that we tell ourselves.

Because I have memories of sitting in the tent. Because we used to go tenting with family and the parents, my two older brothers and my little brother and me, all in a big tent. Oh, what pleasure.

It's just, I think really don't matter how much you earn, how well you're doing in life, how, you know, how well you're doing in your job or, you know, or your business. If you got three kids, you're never gonna have any money. No, four kids.

That money's gone, isn't it? It was never gonna, you know, you'd have to be a millionaire to be taking four kids abroad, you know, on holiday to a hotel, like a proper holiday, not tenting, sitting under fabric. You wouldn't eat, it's not even thick enough to use as a raincoat. You know, sleep under that tonight, shall we? Yeah, it's a good idea.

Yeah, lovely. I begged them, please, can't you just leave me at home? Lock me up in a cage, I don't care, just don't take me, please. It was good, it was, we had a lot of fun.

I don't remember one example of fun, but no doubt we did. I can't remember one instance. The thing is, the thing is, my dad, I don't know if it was him or his wife, I don't know either of them, and they were really interested in doing stuff, but stuff that I don't think kids would ever want to do, generally.

And I think a lot of adults probably do that, because I imagine why, if you got to spend a lot of time with a bunch of kids, you might as well get something out of it yourself, you might as well go somewhere that you want to go. So we ended up going to, over in Wales, we ended up going to slate mines, slate mines with slates, you know, stuff that you put on the roofs of houses and stuff. And it used to annoy me because I'd be, I'd spend all year at school, from September all the way through to June, or May, June, whatever it was, avoiding, at all costs, avoiding learning anything new.

That was my main target at school, is to avoid learning stuff. And then straight away after school ended, we'd be taken away to, you know, in the car, me squashed in the middle, with my two brothers, and my little brother in the boot. And we'd be just, still be on his potty, trying to potty train, look, I've done another poo! But we couldn't hear him, which is good.

And we'd all be, I'd be forced to go somewhere like that slate mine, which had big signs, you know, given the history of the mines, and the stories and, you know, information about the slates, and how old, how you can tell how old the slate is by the lines in it. And then we'd go down into the mine itself and get told how deep it is. And I was just like, listen, I can't believe it.

I've avoided this. It's kind of a bit like now. It's like I've been self-isolating for months and months, it seems.

It's like going out now with just someone sneezing in my face, you know, it's like, oh man, I avoided all that learning for nothing. Now I'm learning stuff and don't want to learn. And what do I want to know about slates for? And this is the first time in my life I've ever mentioned slates.

So that trip to that slate mine in Wales was basically, it had no use, it was no use to me. I think Wales is lovely. It's a beautiful, beautiful country.

And I've been back, I used to have a friend that lived there 20 odd years ago. So I used to go and visit him because he did his NLP training with me. Not with me, but together.

And then he started a training company and I used to help him out in Wales to train other people. I've been around, I have, oh yes. I'm no amateur.

Yeah, I am. Where am I? I don't know, to be a professional, you've got to get paid, don't you? But then a doctor's still a doctor, aren't they? Even if they're volunteering their services, they're still a doctor. So back in 2006, when I was volunteering my services as a hypnotist in a couple of charities, I was a professional, wasn't I? Didn't get paid, but I was still a professional position.

Yeah. What other things did we do in Wales? Watched the Royal Wedding. Watched the Royal Wedding in Wales.

It's Prince Charles and at the time, Lady Diana, who became Princess Diana, who then became a target by the press, calling her all kinds of horrible names because she was seeing Bin Laden or someone like that. And then she was an angel after that. It's weird, the way the paper is.

I still have a memory. It's weird. I've still got the picture of the paper of Princess Diana the morning that she left us all and went to the newsagents about 6.30 and the first editions of the paper were out.

And on the front cover of one of the tabloids, there was Princess Diana in a swimsuit on a, not a speedboat, like a scooter things that you go on the sea in. I forget what they're called. They're like little mopeds, but they're on the sea.

So she was on one of them. And I think the headline was basically, what a slepper. It was the equivalent to that.

It was very, very unkind. And two hours later, our angel, the world has lost an angel. And that's how the press were.

Absolutely amazing. It was ridiculous how they went from being disgusting towards her while she was alive and suddenly perfect because, you know, and yeah, weird. I wish I still had that that newspaper.

I didn't buy it. I should have bought it. It's very weird walking into the shop knowing, because I've just been watching it on the telly early hours of the morning.

I don't even know if the shopkeeper knew. I think I told him, I say, see her. Yeah.

Are you not known on the news? And I think he had to start collecting up the newspapers. He wasn't allowed to sell them or something. I made that bit up.

I don't know if it's true. He was a bit, he was my local news agents and he was a rude, he was an old, very unlikely he's even still alive. He was about 103 then.

He was really, he was funny, but he was grumpy. I quite like grumpy old men, usually, as long as they got a girlfriend and just went in there, probably to get some cigarettes or some chocolate or something like that. I don't know, tampons or just something that I needed.

And he said to me, oh sir, do you want to take this with you? And he pulls out a dirty magazine. He said, your subscriptions come in. Do you want to take it with you now or are you going to get it later? And it was like a nudie magazine with, I don't know what it was, big guns.

I think it was called Big Guns. Oh, Andre, really? I've only put that clean paper down and you've gone and done a poo on it. Why? Wow.

That looked more like gravy. That's nice. So that's very rude of him, wasn't it? Are you going to take this? I couldn't believe it.

I mean, first of all, what was he doing with that magazine down there anyway? I mean, normally he has it in a little brown bag for me. So I said, oh, I might as well take it now, now that he's shown her. And yes, funny times.

Andre, you're supposed to do that before you go for a poo, not afterwards. I do apologize. Andre's just a rude little monkey he is.

What did you say? At least I'm not slagging off signers. I wasn't saying anything bad about signers, people that do sign language. That wasn't what I was saying.

I was saying that my television is not big enough to fit someone with a big head and massive fingers rolling, you know. I'd have thought, this is terrible, it's wrong, isn't it? I'd have thought it wouldn't be bad if they got people, they should get people with like big fingers, shouldn't they? So it could be put a bit more pronounced, just really long fingers, long fingernails, like a witch or something. I'm going to learn a little bit of sign language because my friend, who's got the blind daughter, the daughter of Ruth de Heeren, and I met her daughter, she could lip read brilliantly.

It's amazing. And it's a lovely little girl, she's so funny. And my friend said, oh, basically I said to her, look, how can you experience the world the same when you're missing out so many words? Because there's no way, if there's two people talking in a TV show, that that one person moving their hands and making some weird faces is going to be conveying that conversation correctly.

And she said, yeah, yeah, I can. And I said, I don't believe it. She said, you're not really much of a friend, are you? I said, what do you mean? She said, well, first of all, you're moaning about sign language when you know my daughter's deaf, and now you're just mocking it.

I said, I'm not mocking, I'm genuinely not mocking it. I honestly don't understand how, with a few hand movements and some exaggerated facial expressions, how that can have the same richness as the spoken language. It can't have.

So I still don't believe her, so I'm going to look into it. She said it could, and I don't believe her. I'll probably just miss out lots of stuff, lots of words that aren't necessary.

I suppose it could be like text speak, or people that post stuff now on Facebook, and they miss out half the sentence. Maybe it's a bit like that. Maybe that's where it came from.

Maybe deaf people, I don't feel I'd say deaf people anymore, is it? Hearing impaired, I think it's the correct term. And hearing impaired people, I forget now, now I'm trying to correct myself. It's hard to keep track.

See, I never really used to understand why people would use racist language. It's a good segue, isn't it? Oh my God, why is it going now? He's having a go at sign languages, people. He's having a go at his best friend's daughter, who's deaf.

I wasn't having a go at anyone. I'm just relaying a conversation I had with her. Now he's being racist, and I'm not being racist.

I'm talking about people that are used to using a certain kind of language, and now they can't. Language that I was brought up to use as well, but it wasn't ingrained in me, because I have a brain that works quite well as far as, well, not in every way, obviously, because I've got bipolar and a personality disorder. But outside of that, outside of being marginally crazy, I can kind of see the difference between right and wrong, which might not come across so far when it's recorded.

The thing is, so I've worked with some old geezers. When I was in my early 20s, I was working with people in their 50s and 60s who were older than my dad. My dad's, I think, 26 years older than me, so he was only in his 40s.

I was back then, so blimey, he was younger than me back then. Isn't it really weird? You know, sometimes I really feel sorry for myself. I think, oh, but it's so hard.

I've got to deal with this. And I think back, like, my dad, when he was my age, before he was my age, by when he was in his 30s, he had four children, a wife, and three cars to maintain, like a van and two cars, and a big house. And Christmas, you know, that in itself was a huge task with all the kids.

Holidays, camping, so we can really call it that. But it's like all that responsibility. And me, I've got a ferret to look after.

So, you know, I should have a bit more respect for kind of what he accomplished, but I don't, I just really don't have any. It's weird, isn't it? I'm sure he said once, you should appreciate all that I've done for you, for those kids. He's saying you should appreciate it.

I'll go out to work every day and put a roof over your head and give you food. Yeah, I said, yeah, but isn't that what you're supposed to do? Isn't that your job? You know, isn't, you know, what we're supposed to say, thank you every day, kneel and pray to you at night. Thank you so much for going out to work.

Thank you for feeding your children. So, yeah, I was a bit mouthy back then. Back now, I'm good as gold.

Never say anything. Very, very reserved. I was, what, seven, six, seven.

I remember saying to my step-mom, I don't know why I said it, but I think she's, I think it might have been a case of, where are we going on holiday this year? She said, well, we went on holiday last year. I said, well, no, I mean, are we really going to properly go on holiday? She said, yeah, we're going to go camping in Wales. And I said to her, are we poor? Are we poor? And she ran out of the room crying her eyes out and went into the garden.

I didn't mean to make her cry. It was just a genuine question. It's like, well, you're taking us camping.

You don't let us do that in the garden because it's not safe and we're not protected from the weather. Why would you class that as a holiday? And basically, living in a tent is what homeless people do. I said to her, and she said, it's a holiday.

It's a holiday. I said, well, what, are we going to take turns begging in the streets as well to pay for food? And she said, you're horrible. I wish we'd never adopted you.

I said, oh, a bit harsh. I'm only seven. She said, yeah, you don't talk like you're a normal seven-year-old.

I said, I'm seven. I didn't say I was normal. And we laughed.

We had a little dance. The whole family started dancing on the roof. I didn't realise what we were doing until I realised they were trying to push me off.

So, yeah, around a lot of people that were using some pretty bad language, they were from, you know, the war, pretty much, lived through the war. Though you think about it, they were in their fifties and sixties. So they grew up during the war.

And life and society in this country was, I imagine everywhere, but here is a lot different from what it is now. And not everybody adjusted to the changes that happened. And some of them had a real bad attitude about difference, as it was.

And I didn't feel very comfortable with it, if I'm honest, because, you know, back in the early nineties, London, I mean, it has been for a long time, but it was the most multicultural place in the whole world, East London. Nowhere in the whole world was as multicultural, had as many languages being spoken, many people from different countries, as there was in the borough that I lived in, in Newham. And I mean, it literally, the white people, white English people were the minority.

Regardless if you think it sounds racist or not, it actually statistically was, because they did the statistics. And it was great. There was women from all over the world.

It's brilliant. If you're a young man or young woman, you get to meet people from everywhere. Because, you know, for some women, I look like George Clooney.

To some women, I do. I don't. I did this training once.

It was a sales job back in, I think, 1995, I think it was. And there was this, I think she was African girl, but she just, it's almost like she fell in love with me. And she just grabbed hold of my arm and wanted to take me home and I got scared.

I just thought, because I'm not, I wasn't used to, I'm not saying that, again, I'm not saying all African women are self-confident, you know, because she was obviously very confident in herself. But I didn't know she was trying to kidnap me. You know, I didn't know she was trying to get my kidney or something.

I don't know. I didn't know. I just didn't, you know, I was used to women rejecting me.

And I was used to sort of, I didn't know what to do. In those days, not even just those days, if someone, if a woman sort of suddenly showed an interest, I'd think, oh, what's wrong with her? What's going on there? You know, alarms would go off. Literally, I had a hat with alarms on and I'd set them off, like that, which was a little bit distracting, especially when you're in a restaurant.

It's okay, I took it off and I apologized to the manager and he let me keep my job washing dishes. So I was around people. The thing is, in the 70s and 80s, where I grew up, when I grew up, and if you watch any of the sitcoms from that time, there is language that's not used anymore, that's not allowed to be used.

I know some people that do still use that language, but they're too young to. They grew up hearing it. So they still use it, even though the note's not allowed.

It's very, I find it kind of unusual. So why would you use that language? But I think it's more of like, I do what I want. No, no, I'm not supposed to, so I'm going to do it specifically for that reason, which is a bit like I used to be when I was younger, I guess.

Not with that kind of language, but yeah. So now I don't keep up to date with what's not allowed. I'm okay with the racist and homophobic, and I'm not okay with racism, homophobia, I'm talking about the ways to describe people.

But then I got a little bit confused because there was a woman on a music show who started using a word to describe herself, which I was told 20 years ago you couldn't use anymore. So I just get confused. I just don't say anything.

I keep quiet. So hard of hearing impaired rather than deaf, because when I was younger, I used to be deaf and dumb, or deaf, or deaf and dumb. Dumb was when you couldn't talk, isn't it? But then you got the word dumb means stupid.

That's kind of what they used in our public and popular phrasing. Oh, don't be so dumb. So I think they, whoever they are, sort of got rid of that word.

Mute. Mute? Maybe that's changed. I think that it was changed to mute.

And there was, there was a lot of words I used to use when I was a kid that were, that everyone used, that were derogatory against each other. And it wasn't, it was never, because I didn't grow up, where I grew up, I didn't grow up in London. I lived in London when I was a baby, and then I moved and moved around.

But where I grew up and went to sort of high school, it was just, you couldn't have a whiter place. It was just white faces everywhere. That's the kind of place it was.

It was a town full of, there was a handful of people that weren't from England there. Seriously, probably five. The only Chinese people there, they're the ones that had, the ones that worked in Chinese restaurants.

It's just the way it was. It was that kind of town. So there was no, there wasn't really any racism, not really, in the sense of, there was on television, and there was on the news and on comedy programs.

But there wasn't any towards other people that I ever really saw, because there wasn't anyone to do it to. I'm not talking from my perspective, because if I'd have seen someone do that, I would have, I would have had something to say, because I don't like bullies. But yeah, never, no, wait a minute.

See, everywhere I go, there was no white people. No. It's all Italians.

I grew up in Italy. That's right. No, Russia.

Russia. I forget sometimes. I think, I think Putin is, he's my uncle.

God, I've got to be careful that I don't end up, I think we get on all right, me and him. I used to know someone that had the same kind of face as his. A really similar face.

Structure, eyes, nose, jaw. Very similar. Though my friend was taller.

Mind you, I've only ever seen Putin on a 32-inch TV, so I don't really know how tall he really is. So yeah, I want to go through the words, but I can't, because they're not acceptable anymore. Not for the sake of saying the words, but just to sort of, just to let you know that they're not really that bad.

But they're not socially, they're not PC. If that's PC, politically correct. Yeah.

I can't, I can't keep up to date. There was something recently, I didn't know what it meant. I felt a little bit, oh my goodness, I really am a dinosaur.

And it was the word woke, in that the term was, oh, he's so woke, or she's too woke. I thought, what? What the hell? I had to research it. And it basically means you're politically correct to another level of political correctness.

Beyond the point of being annoying to every other human. It's like really on a, very, it's difficult because I've been around Buddhists. I had to try and be a bit like that.

And there was a lot of gay people. There's a lot of vegetarians. I'm not saying that, but I had to try and be, learn to be considerate around non-meat eaters when I was eating.

And just sort of, there was people that had sex changes, and I met all kinds of different people. And I just, I learned to try and reign it in a little bit. And just, it was almost like, there was one point where I started to assume that everyone I met was gay, until I found out otherwise.

It's just, and I thought, why? First of all, I've got no interest in anyone's preferences. I really don't care, never have done. It's the least interesting thing in the world to me.

And why should I be treating people? It's like, how far do you go with that? So I just, I don't say anything anymore. Very reserved. Very reserved.

Very, very reserved. Very reserved. Yes.

I'm a good little boy, I am. I'm a good little boy sitting in the tree. No, that didn't rhyme.

Let's talk about something else. Let's talk about midgets. After all that, I start to, I start saying, oh, sorry, it tickles me.

After all that, I said, let's talk about midgets. No. See, that's another thing.

Remember years ago, I was in town with a woman that I really liked. And there was, in those days, we used to call them midgets. Called them short people, very, very short people.

I don't know, is dwarf the correct term now? Short people. Little people. I honestly don't know what the correct term is.

So for me, dwarf, if I think of the word dwarf, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Now that to me is worse than the word midget. To me, but then I'm not a midget.

I'm not a midget. I'm not a small person. Like tiny.

That's what I kind of sometimes wish I was. I just need to have so much fun. Running around trees and stuff like that.

I'm joking. I'm joking. I don't know.

I just think it'd be an interesting lifestyle. I can't, I'm trying to backtrack. It's not working, is it? So I think perhaps they should just be a bit nicer.

Instead of like all the dwarf or midget, just like call them Snow White's little helpers. I don't know. Just a different, how about human beings? Miniature humans.

That's kind of what they are. They're smaller versions. They're still, I mean, one of my favorite little people was, what's his name? Mini-me.

It wasn't really from the TV show, not from the films, although he was good in that, but he was on Big Brother. He was so funny. So funny.

And it was lovely. So lovable. I don't mean in a kiddly, cuddly, picking them up and swinging them around kind of way.

Little toddler. I don't mean it like that. I mean, it's like having a toddler that you can talk to and they can actually talk back.

No, he was funny, really funny. And he died. And I saw a few interviews with him and he was just so articulate, intelligent, funny, just lovely bloke.

Really, really liked him. And so I don't know what the correct term is. I mean, why do we have to have terms? It gets to the point where, how do you describe somebody? You know, if someone gets mugged or someone gets into an altercation or someone calls the police, what do they look like? Well, they're wearing a blue jacket.

Yeah. Trainers. Anything else? Male.

Okay. Height. Anything like that? Height.

Two foot three. You thought I was going somewhere else, didn't you? Two foot, two foot three. Apparently they've still got normal, not normal, but human size brains.

I like, see, that comes across wrong, doesn't it? I don't like midgets. I just, yeah. Anyway, I had a friend and we saw this.

It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter what we saw. It was, no, it was a family.

Waddling. Waddling down the road. See, what it was is she laughed.

I didn't find it funny. Then she started laughing and I just, sometimes it's hard, you know, laughter is infectious. I mean, you know, so just like kindness is, well, perhaps you should give it a go then.

Yeah, I'll try, try, try a little kindness. Yeah. Oh, wow.

That's really weird. I do feel, I really, you know, you know, some people are like, oh, I don't like that. I don't really have that.

I don't really have strong opinions about anything. It might sound like I do, but I generally don't. I don't really care that much.

It's just, I think the only thing I've got strong opinions is someone being bullied, you know, seeing someone picking on somebody else. That's the one thing that I don't, I can't put up with. You know, people get like, they have to try and build themselves up so they can have a tantrum.

I don't really do that. It's, yeah, I don't really do tantrums occasionally, but I do private ones, private showings just for myself, no public allowed. Yes, I heard that about you.

Yes, you have tantrums in private, your private ones. No, not my privates, my private tantrums when I'm on my own. Yeah, I thought you meant, you know, tantrums in your underpants.

No, no, there's nothing going on inside my underpants. Trust me. Hasn't been for some while.

Oh, here's a question I should have asked earlier. I was talking to one of my neighbours earlier and she said, as you know, I said, no, I can't really say out loud. We're talking about body parts.

I don't, she started this conversation. See, I don't know how, how, but how I got to this, but she was talking about a certain body part. I'm not going to mention what it is.

And we were talking about soap and she said, oh, that part doesn't need washing because it's self-cleaning. And I said, you sure you don't avoid putting soap near you in case you lose the soap? And she laughed, thankfully. And then I said, you're joking now, aren't you? She said, no.

So I said, I'm going to do a survey on Facebook. I'm going to ask my listeners if that's true, because I don't believe it. She said something else as well.

I forget. Oh, yeah. She said that men also aren't supposed to, oh, I've just given away what part.

The, the opposite part with the opposite person aren't supposed to use soap there either. I said, yeah, trust me. And we were talking about, you know, you know, some traditions when they give the snip on the little baby boys, little snip, snip.

And she said, yes, it's for hygiene. I said, look, didn't even know about hygiene 2000 years ago. Didn't know about soap till about just over a hundred years ago.

You know, so it's all about hygiene. Didn't know germs existed a hundred years ago. Well, not a hundred years ago, maybe how long ago? Might be a hundred, might be a little bit more, but we didn't know what germs were.

So how would we know about hygiene if you don't understand the concept of germs and infection? Didn't know that stuff. Didn't know what it was. I'm talking about the doctors, you know, the scientists, the experts, the physicians.

So to say, oh, it was done for hygiene. Nope, nope, nope, nope. Don't lie.

Stop lying to me. What a lovely subject to end the recording on. Is it because you're scared that you might lose the soap? Anyway, thank you ever so much.

It's been glorious. Thank you. Thank you very much.

Take care of your souls, all of you, each one of you, yes, yes, oh yes, enjoy your day ahead and have a wonderful, wonderful sleep, na, na, na. So remember to be kind, be kind to yourself because you deserve, yes you do, you deserve to be happy, lots of love, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye.
