Hello and welcome to Let Me Bore You To Sleep. My name is Jason Newland. Please only listen when you can safely close your eyes.

My website for this podcast is letmeboreyou.com and my Facebook page for this website is Jason Newland's Boring Group. For this website, for this podcast rather, it's Jason Newland's Boring Group. It's a private group.

I currently have 159 members. You can join. Welcome if you do.

One of the benefits of joining is you can be part of the Q&A Friday that I do every Friday. So it's a podcast, it's just basically you get to ask me questions and I'll answer them. So every week, usually on a Monday or Tuesday, I'll post the first the first message, which is just a reminder.

This is Friday Q&A coming up. Yeah, I posted this one. It's time again.

Any questions? And then I do. Yeah, I then on Thursday, I'll post a little reminder. So yeah, so I've had a few few questions posted, and I will do my best to answer all of them tomorrow.

And that will be released in the morning, Saturday morning. So I won't tell you what questions I've asked. I've had a few so it's good.

Thank you. Just did the biggest burp in the world then. Right.

I had a message this afternoon. What time was it? I like to be precise, precise, precise. 139 233.

So 233 this afternoon. It's now 444. So 233 this afternoon, two hours ago, pretty much I had a text message from my doctor's surgery.

And it said, Oh, no, it's 150. Sorry. I had another one after that, because with a doctor's appointment, Dear Mr. New Land, we'd be grateful if you could kindly contact the practice.

We have a message waiting for you. And now I had my blood tests on Monday, I was supposed to call them up Friday, which is tomorrow, just to get the results. And they said they would contact me if there was anything important came up.

Now, predominantly, okay, I was having a test was getting tested. Because I'm on medication for the bipolar, I have to get tested every year to check my blood pressure, they and they check my blood, the blood so they check for diabetes, they check for cholesterol, and just to make sure that the medication isn't affecting me in a negative way. And then I guess they can compare each year to see if there's any changes and stuff.

Well, this year, I kind of discussed this earlier, a few like a couple of days ago, I had a conversation with the doctor on the phone first. And after telling him about the the history of prostate issues, I'm going to use the word issues. But you can probably see between the lines when I say that, with my immediate family, one of which passed away from it.

And he's because I'm 53, I kind of he, he said, Well, what we'll do is we'll include that in your blood. So we will test your prostate. test your prostate health is pretty much it.

It's weird, but I don't like I don't like saying the word to be honest, I'm not saying that word, not prostate, but the the other word. So and just knowing that someone very close to me has it and stuff just anyway, anyway, anyway, so I had the test on Monday. And I've been thinking about it all week, to be honest, since Monday, I know.

So it's only Thursday now. But so when I got that text message, I thought, I kind of thought the worst, to be honest, because they said would only contact you if there was something that needed attention. I phoned up and the receptionist said, Who is it? What do you want? I said, it's, it's juicy.

JJ. He said, Oh, juicy. I said, You're right.

I said, Yeah. As a family, he said, Oh, don't ask. I said, the twins playing up a day.

Yeah. And now 35. And they're just they're just a nightmare.

Go through that awkward stage. You know, 35 year olds go through. I said, Yeah, I know.

I used to be 35. Once. He said, it was about four years ago on it.

I said, This is a nice conversation to say stuff like that. And he said, Okay, sorry. So what do you want? I said, Well, I just need to check the results for but I've got a message basically got a message.

You asked me to call. He said, I didn't actually send it myself. I said, Okay, well, I was sent a text message to call.

So that's what I'm doing. So he said, What's your date of birth, so you can access my files. And I gave him that.

And he said, Oh, he said, We need to make a doctor's appointment with you so the doctor can talk to you. I said, Okay. And he gave me a date, which is nearly a month away.

And I thought, I'm not waiting a month to find out if I have a serious condition. The No, I can't be waiting. That's just that'd be a nightmare.

No way. And I said that to say, Look, I've been tested for various things in the blood tests. I need to know.

I need you to tell me please because I was going to phone up tomorrow anyway. So if you've got the test results now, then please tell me now. And he said, Okay.

He said, Well, you you're what's it called? cholesterol is high. They said it's nothing to worry about. Hence the month away appointment.

So it's not it's nothing dangerous. It's just something that needs to be addressed. I said, Okay.

And what about a prostate? He said, Oh, I see. Yeah. Okay, fair enough.

It's all clear. Absolutely fine. Everything else is fine.

It's just the cholesterol. Now. I'm not saying that cholesterol is important.

Of course, it's important. And I need to be careful with that and realize what it can lead to but having high cholesterol. So I've had it on and off for years.

I just need to just need to need to eat less lard. Basically, those large sandwiches I have in the middle of the night is probably not doing me any good. Although I thought my cholesterol levels would go down having cut out coke altogether.

Coca Cola, don't drink coke ever now. But I drink tea and I have one sugar in my tea. And probably have 12345 cups of tea a day.

Probably. I have one coffee, maybe four cups of tea a day, one coffee, and I want sugar in there as well. So maybe I need to go sugarless, which or half of it just reduce the sugar intake.

So I'm going to try and do that over the next month and see if that makes it has an effect. And then I phoned my dad because he he's the one that told me that I needed to have have a prostate tested, have my prostate tested. And so he was really pleased that I didn't have you know, it was it was healthy.

It was clear. And, and I wanted to celebrate with him, but I couldn't because just because of his situation. That's like, I felt almost like that'd be rubbing his nose in it like I'm okay, mine's fine, you know, so I didn't didn't want to do that.

But he was really positive towards me being healthy, you know, in that sense. And I was trying to, I was trying to explain exactly what I just said to you to him. And he was saying, I'm okay.

And I said, Yeah, but I just want to let you know that I care about your well being. And there's a little bit of an awkward moment, but he was trying to explain that he's fine. He's, and he's, you know, he's wakes up every day and he's, he's fairly happy and stuff.

So I kind of okay. But, you know, I don't talk about my family in these recordings. And I don't definitely don't talk about my dad or anything like that.

But it just seems an important thing to mention really just that, how supportive he was. And he's the one that got me to have the test to start with. And yeah, and he did open up a bit, he talked about his brother and my uncles and stuff.

So and when he got tested and stuff, so we did have a quiet, it was a short conversation, but it was quite meaningful. I found I felt so. That's, that's it really for that one.

Just I'm glad I got it today because tomorrow is Q&A Friday. So I can't couldn't we talk about it during that. Although I'm not going to talk about it during this either.

Although I've talked about it. Technically I have but the rest of this recording is going to be focused on the King Kong movie I just watched. So also, if you would like to support what I do and help to pay for the costs, you can send a PayPal gift if you choose.

The address is on the Jason's Boring Group, Jason's Boring Group also on letmeboreyou.com. The link is on there as well as should be support me. Yes, there's a few ways you can support me but PayPal is at the top there's a link. This is if you if you can if you want to this I'm very appreciative of it.

Just helps me to pay for stuff that costs to run this thing. So King Kong King Kong. So I know that it's not going to be everyone's taste.

And it is going to be spoilers if I tell you about it. So what should I do? So try and do it in a way that you don't that I'm not spoiling it. Anyway, it's Godzilla and Kong the new empire.

So I just watched it on TV. And it's, it's, well, I liked it. Actually, I didn't watch it all in one go.

I watched him at three different goes three different settings, settings, settings, settings. And because I was doing other things and you know, had to take the boy out and stuff. Yesterday and the day before and had other stuff going on people ringing me and whatever.

So but I watched the last bit today. I mean, it's quite so about two hours long, I think. It's well, all of the monster movies, Godzilla, King Kong, whatever, they're all silly, in a sense of, they're just silly fun.

They're not supposed to be serious. Because if you take it seriously, well, first of all, it's not serious. But the main thing I noticed, and it's weird, because I kind of, I was watching Godzilla, because he's in it as well.

I suppose the title gives it away, but he was in as well. And I don't know if it's a man or a boy or girl. I don't know if they have, have those bits.

Because it's a Godzilla and it might have both bits. I don't know. I mean, him and him or her and Kong.

So yeah, I felt a little bit of a little bit of attention there between the two of them. I think it might be something quite nice. Growing between them, you know.

I think there might be the next movie might be kind of a wedding, a wedding movie. I don't know. Who knows? Anyway, so Godzilla, there was a point where Godzilla and King Kong, or Kong, were running towards each other.

It's near the end of the movie. They destroy bridges, massive hotels. I mean, they must, the casualties must have been in the thousands and thousands.

I'd say probably 20,000, 30,000. Seriously, if it was a real situation, a lot of people. And I was thinking, because I used to think that sometimes in the, you know, in the superhero movies, it was never addressed until it was, because they addressed it in the Avengers movie, where that's why the government said there's too many people, too many casualties of your conflicts.

This is in the, it's the one where they all went, they split up and then they fought each other. What was it called? The Avengers, Avengers movies. Avengers.

Oh, no. Or was it Avengers movies? Was it? Or was it Iron Man? Avengers movie? What? E? Why did it end up with just E? Avengers movie. It was, I know the name.

It's on a tip of me, tip of me foot. Captain America, Iron Man 2, Avengers Assemble. Nope.

That was the second Avengers movie. Avengers Age of Ultron. That was the third Avengers movie, I think.

Captain America Civil War. Okay, so it was, it was an Avengers movie, had all the Avengers in it, but Civil War. So after Age of Ultron, which was 2015, 2016 was Captain America Civil War.

And that's when I think Spider-Man came into it. Anyway, they basically, the government say, we've got to split us all up. Because between Captain America and Iron Man, Captain, Iron Man says, he sides with the government saying, yeah, we need to have strict protocol to protect the civilians.

And then Captain America saying, but Iron Man, you don't understand. We saved the world from aliens. Of course, there's casualties, but it wasn't us.

It was the aliens. And Iron Man said, I don't care. I'm now the boss.

Okay, that's not a good, good impression. But that's kind of what it was. Like, Iron Man sided.

And because he had the clout, and he had, he was the rich one, and he had all the equipment. Captain America and a few of the others went into the back, went to the shadows, and were like superheroes. But I think they were wanted.

The government want, while looking for them, and eventually did get arrested, I think in the show, or in the movie. And then they all came together to save the world again. So that's what I think about when I think about the, when I was watching this, Hong Kong and Zilla, is they were causing absolute chaos.

I mean, chaos, not chaos, but chaos. Absolute. And I thought, Oh, by the way, I've been 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10.

I've been uploading old videos to my YouTube channel. They're not available yet, but I've been uploading them all day long. So I've uploaded probably 10 2030, 40 or 50 of my old videos.

And I mean, you might question why I question why. So 30, 60, 60, 1-2-3-4-5, 65. I have uploaded, I just since I've been doing only the Let Me Bore You To Sleep, and I deleted all the other stuff off of my YouTube channel.

I'm getting hardly any views. I mean, this is just on YouTube, the podcast going well, but the YouTube is really, really, really slow. 45 views in the last 48 hours.

And today's podcast. So I don't know, it's just not much, I'm not getting much. So what I decided is I'm not 100% decided I'm doing it.

I've uploaded that there's still drafts, so they're not actually being published. And there are hundreds of videos. So I'm not quite sure what I'm going to do.

But anyway, that's that's where we are at the moment with that. And the stats on the podcast are continuing to grow going well. Let Me Bore You To Sleep podcast is what's the times five o'clock in the afternoon, and it's nearly 5000 plays just on that podcast.

And 37,000 for the week. And how much for the month? How many have I had for the month for the month for the month for the month 123,591 plays for the last 30 days. So that's more than I ever used to get on my Let Me Bore You To Sleep podcast.

Never used to get that many. And on that one podcast, I wouldn't even get 1000 a day sometimes. So I'm pretty pleased with how that's going.

The the other one, which I always forget the name of which is weird, hypnosis for sleeping deeply. Today I've had 11,718 plays. So there's still seven hours left of the day.

And yesterday I got 21,866. So 11,000. So yeah, probably gonna hit the 20,000 again.

So was it Thursday, Wednesday, Tuesday, Monday, Monday, I got 31 and a half thousand. So it's not bad. Last 30 days at 286 and a half thousand plays.

And the last seven days 100,477. So it's as you see, it's growing. It's growing, which is nice.

I mean, to get to averaging the what do what's going on on a seven day to average 100,000. That's what's that for 400,000 a month. 400,004 million four, eight, five, 10.

Yeah, so it's good. I'm pleased with that. Anyway, that's going well.

So thank you for listening. Well, what is weird is life is weird. But with the with this podcast to sleep and deeply when I release new recordings, that's getting a lot more listens than I used to get per recording.

So yesterday's not yesterday's day before yesterday's I had was number 1001,121 anti barking thing. Then one without music got 406 views plays with music 479. Five hour one was 566 plays.

And the 10 hour one 853 plays. The day before that a 10 hour one got 1095 plays. And yesterday's one 247 plays for the no music music 306.

Five hours 351 10 hours 294. So it's it's just it's constantly growing. So it's nice that just keeping it up, you know, I mean, I'm trying to think I've never had since I've done the podcast on that one.

Wow. Since October, I've had 1,248,596 plays on that one podcast. 1,248, since October now now realize was it November, December, January, February, March, April, May.

So that's seven months. So please, there's been a few months where I didn't get many. But March, I had 85,000.

February, I had 66,500. 98,000 January, December. So it started off 240,000 in October 253 in November.

Admittedly, December, January, February, I probably wasn't at the height of my, you know, things weren't so great for a little while. But now that I'm doing I'm very what's the right word? Not just productive, but consistent, very consistent. And that seems to be showing I mean, considering April, I got 189,288 plays.

And May so far, it's only the 16th of May. So I'm only halfway through the month, but 205,105 plays. So yeah, yeah, I'm pleased with that.

So that's really that's what I want to say on that one. So I don't know what I'm going to do with YouTube. I'm just going to upload everything and then decide.

Maybe just leave the stuff on there for a while and think about it, you know. So the Kong movie, I don't want to spoil it actually. So if I talk about it, I'm going to spoil it.

But it's, it is silly. It's supposed to be silly. But at the same time, it's it's fun.

I thought it was fun. You know, it was light hearted, kind of there was a lot more monsters than you normally get in these movies. A lot more like monsters fighting each other and stuff.

Got a little bit confused. A few a few along the way got a bit confused about because they got this whole thing. There's like inner earth, upper earth, lower earth.

And it's like all these different layers of earth where there's worlds and I got a little bit. There's all these different portals and I did get a bit confused about where they were going and why they were going there. And I did.

I'll be honest, I did. I genuinely did get a little bit. What's going on now? So yeah, it was a happy ending at the end of it.

And yeah, I mean, I thought it was all right. You know, it's it's. There was a movie, what did I say? There was this movie that I watched recently, called Abigail.

I recommend it. I recommend it. I do.

It's not what you think it is. Don't read about it before you watch it. That's all I would say.

Just just watch it. And it's a lot of fun, actually. And it's it's not what you think.

If you read it, if you know what it's about, then you will know what it's what it's about. That makes sense. Let's see if they've spoilt it in the plot.

And let's see if they've spoilt it. To be fair, they've spoilt it in the picture. Because that ruins the whole thing.

They got a picture of Abigail, the little girl. So that spoils it. So let's have a look at Abigail movie poster, movie poster.

So Abigail, Abigail. Right now, that's not the one. That's not it.

Movie trailer. No, it's not the one at all, is it? That's not the one. I might be the one.

I don't think it is. There's really more than one Abigail. Abigail.

Okay, if I put in 2024. Okay, so if you look at it, the picture is of and it's not coming up for some reason. The poster.

Come on, open up. Abigail the movie. So I'm just gonna make the poster a bit.

Oh, no, it's not even. It's a tiny little picture. Oh, you're trying to sell the picture.

That's why they're not allowing me to open it up. Abigail. Okay, here we go.

See if I can. No, it won't open it up. No, it won't open it up.

Well, it's from what I can see because it's such a small image. It's a picture of the little girl in a ballerina costume. I don't know if you can probably tell it's a ballerina costume from the angle or a camera from above looking down.

It's got hair in a pigtail or pony. Yeah, is it a muff or what is it when you have your hair cramped or cropped at the back and it's not a ponytail. But it's I don't know what I call it.

But anyway, she's got that she's got a white ballerina dress on and she's only probably about 10 or 11 or something. And there's that picture. And then there's another one which is a little bit different, but it's kind of still similar.

From the picture, you can't tell what it's about. But I just saw another picture where it really did ruin what it's about. Which just seemed a bit.

And I reckon if you used to watch, I just interrupted myself then. I reckon if you used to watch a trailer, the trailer would spoil it. But yeah.

So don't watch a trailer. Just watch it Abigail ABIG AIL. It's a horror movie, but it's it's not that horrible.

Well, this and there's some horrible horror movies, horrible, horrible parts. In fact, I'm not sure if it's even an 18 to be honest sugar. I wouldn't be surprised if it's a 15.

Because things that used to be 18 when I was a kid and now 15 apart from anything that's got nudity since still seems to be 18. But horror doesn't seem to be so much. Some obvious ones or never.

Well, I'll say there'll never be a 15. But things I saw and those ones, they they're an 18. But see, it's rude.

They've ruined it by showing the little girl. The different scenes from the movie. If you didn't know this, because this doesn't happen halfway through the movie.

You know, this is kind of spoils it. I didn't know. I genuinely did not know that.

I'm not going to say it. I didn't know about, you know, what was going to happen. And I mean, the basic the basic scenario of the why I was told when I went to watch it, it was just a little write up which says, um, the one I'm not even going to spoil it that big, because that that ruins it doesn't ruin it.

But like, you don't even need to know that. It's worth watching as long as you're not if you don't mind a little bit of horror and stuff. But it's worth watching.

It's it's silly in parts, but it's supposed to be it's it's got funny bits. It's all right. Should I do a weekly film review? Okay, I don't give you any details, do I? It's hard.

It's hard to to review a movie without giving away the plot without spoiling it. I think it's give you an example. I was watching a movie.

I forget what it was called. And something didn't ring true. It was one of these based in old times.

We're talking the 1940s or 50s in England. But there was it was really, really nicely done and all the old cars and old houses and white stuff. But there was certain aspects of it that were not did not ring true for the times for that period.

I mean, so I went online to see what other people would said about it. And people were other people have mentioned it as well. Not that it doesn't bother me.

It's just like, okay, because I guess in a way, a fair bit of my knowledge of the world has come probably from watching movies. So if I watch a historical thing, not that I expect it to be completely accurate, but the more accurate it is, the better for me, because otherwise I sound silly. If I start, you know, if I start using the information from a movie, in order to win an argument, you know, so for example, there was, if he was trying to change a wheel in the rain, and there's a big storm, changing the wheel in a car.

And what could you do? You wouldn't be able to, you wouldn't be able to lift it up. And if the thing fell down, and, you know, what would you do? And I could say, well, you, you might get angry, and you turn into a big green monster. And you tip the car over.

And people say, no, that wouldn't happen. You'd have to call for help, wouldn't you? I said, no, you and I'd argue it. Because I've seen it on TV.

I see it in a TV movie, The Incredible Hulk, in the 70s. And I'm like, no, I've seen it with my own eyes. There was this bloke, very slim man.

And he was trying to change his wheel in the rain. And his hand slipped. And he had a bit of a tantrum.

And his eyes went weird. And he turned green and got big. And it's like, no, that was just a movie.

That was just make belief. I said, your make belief. And they said, Well, that doesn't sound like a good argument, is it? I said, No, probably not.

But I'm only eight. So you can't expect too much. And so I do quite like accuracy as much as possible.

In my historic movies. Just as an educational thing. You know, I'm trying to educate myself.

I, I didn't say that. Okay, if I was at school now, I don't mean at my age. But if I was at school, I would have been in a special class.

Based on how I was when I was a kid. Now, I don't mean that derogatively against myself. It's just true.

I was behind, I was way, way behind all the other kids. But what I did have is verbal ability. I had the ability.

I wasn't a great reader, but I had a love of reading. So I improved and I really worked it not because I wanted to be good. It's just because I love doing it.

But I was verbally and I'm not saying advanced because or equal, at least I was verbally equal to everyone else, I would say, because talking, especially I had two older brothers. I'd lived a bit of a life to be honest, I'd had quite a few unusual experiences during my young childhood. I'd lived in a children's home with lots of other kids all living together.

So there's a lot of talking, you know, even during the night with chat and stuff. So there's a lot of conversations. And I didn't, I never really spent much time on my own.

During that period, during the children's home period, I was always with people. You know, I didn't have my own bedroom, I was in a room, a dorm, dormitory with, I don't know how many, 12, 15, whatever kids, maybe less, maybe 10. I don't know, one, two, probably about 10, maybe more.

So maybe 20 even. So, you know, we was, there was always that kind of continuous conversation going on. And I, maybe that's why I value peace and quiet now, or I have done as well for a long time.

And even though it might seem that I'm just a chatterbox, and all I do is talk, which in some situations is true. Sometimes, like he started barking, so I had to stop there. Talking about non-stop talking, there's a neighbor, not in this block, but nearby, does not stop talking from morning to night.

Talking, that part of the brain that is for conversation is superior. Like, you know, it's, to be able to talk non-stop, and to always have something to talk about, it means that this person has got a very, a very advanced part of that brain, I guess. See, that was a compliment.

See, it sounded like, like I was moaning. I was, but it's still a compliment. Constant.

It's like ducks arguing over what to watch on TV. It's just, it's just, it's continuous. So, maybe I should do a movie, a movie, once a week, do a movie night, not a movie night, but do a podcast movie review, as part of the Let Me Bore You To Sleep ongoing thing.

Not as a separate podcast, but just as, you know, as part of this. So, you know, I do the Q&A Fridays now, and I've done that for a month. So, I think it'll be the fifth one this week.

So, maybe I could do a, a movie, movie review Sunday, or I don't know, boxing Sunday. I don't want to do, I want, I'm not going to talk specifically about boxing every week, because I know that a lot of people won't, would not want to listen to that, because not everyone's favorite thing, I know. I, it's one of my favorite things, which has probably been evident to those that listen to me regularly.

But you know what? All week, apart from the blood test, prostate stuff, which, you know, it definitely confused me, and weirdly enough, after the prostate, when I got, after the prostate, when I had been to the doctors, I got home, I had a panic attack. So, first time for a while, and it lasted, the anxiety lasted for two days, on and off, even last night as well.

So, but I'm not, I'm not feeling it now.

I did wonder if I was worried. I was concerned, I was a little bit worried, but I didn't think that I was worried enough for my adrenal glands to kick in, and for whatever, you know, the, the body to kind of do its own thing, that it used to do, and I had a little, little taste of that again, and it wasn't pleasant. But yeah, that's, that's sorted now.

But another thing, what I've been looking forward to for quite a while actually, and it's really become more and more, is the boxing on Saturday night.

Tyson Fury, fighting Oleksandr Usyk, and all the other fights on the undercard as well, it's, I've been looking forward to this, well for months, but, so the, yeah, the last week, I've really been looking forward to it, but it's been a little bit, the edge has been taken off, because I've been thinking about other things and stuff, and, but now, it's Thursday, Friday, Saturday, two days, the boxing, so it starts at four in the afternoon, so I will be making my recording in early afternoon on Saturday,

and I will upload it Sunday morning, like normal, but I'll have to do it early in the day, and it's like, yeah, it's all sorted, all ready to watch, just got to wait for it to come on, and so four o'clock till about probably eleven or twelve, a long old, long old slog, but, yeah, I'm looking forward to it, because, and I just, it's a weird thing about it, is I know that my friend Luke will be up here watching it with me, he wouldn't watch the whole show,

he wouldn't be up here at four o'clock, but he'd definitely, if he was able to, he'd want to come up and watch the main fight, because we've been talking about it for years, Tyson against Usyk, we'll never get together, we'll never have a, to unify all of the belts, and the fight was on its way up, I mean, when my friend, when Luke was still around, the fight was coming up, and it's supposed to be in December, and then it got cancelled, due to Tyson having a cut in sparring,

and now it's, was it, no, was it January, I don't know, it's, time goes so quick, I mean, it's only last year that I was 32, so I, I'm looking forward to it anyway, that's pretty much what I'm saying, I mean, I suppose I could, I'm not going to, because, I'm not, because that's, it wouldn't, I mean, I could, no, I was going to say I could watch it and talk while I watched it, but that'll, that'll, I won't enjoy it as much, if I'm, I won't be able to focus,

necessarily, I don't know, would I, I think if it was live, maybe, if I was doing a live video, or live, I mean, what I prefer to do, what I would prefer, what I would like to do, is to watch it, show it live on YouTube, obviously that's illegal, because copyright can't show a live broadcast like that, but to have it live, have the volume down, but I'd have headphones, so I could hear what they're saying, and then I could do the commentary over the top, and, but the thing is,

because there's, I don't know, there'd have to be some kind of bot, that'd be good though, because lots of different people could do their own commentary, so get rid of the commentators that are in the actual ringside, and just have one, have the cameras without the commentary, just for people, so they can all plug in, and whoever gives the best commentary, gets the most audience, and that would be quite interesting, because there'd be probably hundreds, probably not hundreds, but there'd be quite a few boxing commentators on YouTube, that would be trying to,

they'd do it anyway, but they just don't show it live, they'll, some boxing YouTube channels, they'll watch the fight, they'll have the headphones on, they'll be watching it, whilst streaming live on YouTube, but you won't, you can't see the fight, so you can watch the fight along with them, by watching it on your own TV, and then having the YouTube channel on at the same time, which as I said that, I might do it, you know, I might have the YouTube channel on the laptop, or on the iPad next to me,

and then watch the, watch the fight, I wonder if there's a way of splitting up the TV screen, just so I could have the YouTube channel in a corner, just, I don't know, I've never done that, I think, no, I think I did it once, I might have done, but I think that was for a fight that I couldn't watch on TV, because it wasn't available here, so what I did is, I watched the commentary, and he just went, the one particular one, I forget his name, he went through the fight,

and it was just more interesting, because really, well that was loud, did you hear that, the door went slam, and he was more, it was very animated, through the whole thing, so I took Vinnie out for a walk today, he had a run around with one of his friends, and, and yeah, no he had, he had a run around with two actually, two friends, he ran, had a run around with, and he took a shine to another dog that was on the lead, but the other dog didn't seem to be too particularly bothered,

but he was really interested in this one, and then he saw his friend, my, my friend's daughter, and they came up here for half an hour, whatever, and she was playing hide and seek with him, while her daughter watched telly, no she was the daughter who was playing hide and seek, and Vinnie absolutely loved it, loved, loved, loved it, just playing and running around, and he's just, are we really going to do the barking Vinnie, no, thank you, so I might have to put him in the garden, in the,

not in the garden, in the bedroom in a minute, because he keeps barking, but not loud, but just enough to disrupt the recording, enough to annoy me, and he's hearing something, I don't know what it is he's hearing, all I can hear is the, the constant chitter-chatter that I can normally hear throughout the day, which is, it's not near here, it's probably about three miles away, but it's just loud, loud voice, and I think it's in the next town actually, but he hears things that I can't hear,

and he just sometimes gets a little bit agitated, but I'm using my anti-barking thing, I'm trying to be very spare with it, I don't want to use it a lot, and he just sees it, and it quiets, and he sees it, and he knows that you, you know to be a good boy, but at the same time, I don't do it every time he barks, because he needs to have a bark, he needs to have a, you know, he needs to have a run around, he needs to have a play around,

and if he's, if he's growling, or just, you know, making sounds, then fine, and if it's just a, like a little bark, or a little something, cool, I just, he can do that, it's when he goes absolutely, like really, really loud, then I use the anti-barking thing, and it works instantly, and the thing is, I discovered something yesterday, after we managed to get, sorry, after we managed to get my neighbour out of his flat that he locked himself in, he didn't lock himself in, the door jammed, so he couldn't get out,

so luckily we were out again, because he couldn't get in again, he locked it, the lock was changed by the locksmith, so he went out, which is what he was originally going to do, like two hours earlier, went out, he came back, we saw him in the park, then he started barking, and it sounded aggressive, but it was him, Vinnie wasn't being aggressive to him, he was excited, so that sound that I thought was aggression, it's not, it's just excitement, and he hasn't got any aggression in him, he doesn't seem to have any,

he's got love, he's full of love, pretty much for everyone, and it's a wonderful thing, isn't it really, so I can't, I can't moan about that, it's just I thought the barking sometimes, it seemed a bit aggressive, but it's not, it's not being aggressive at all, he's just super excited, so if you see someone that he likes, he'll go over and run with, play with them or whatever, he doesn't bark, if he knows you're going to be off the lead in a minute, he doesn't bark, or if he sees them regularly,

he doesn't bark, he just like goes over and says hello, if you see someone he doesn't see very often, he gets super excited, and he doesn't see my neighbour once a week, maybe he sees him, but he doesn't see him in the park that often, and he went absolutely, it was off his rocker with excitement, really, and when he went over to him, he was just all excited to see him, so he wasn't aggressive at all, it was, I found that interesting, not as, not as interesting as, as,

well it didn't sound very interesting did it, when I actually said it out loud, it seemed interesting before, before I said it, it seemed kind of interesting, but now, hmm, not so much, so let's say someone's made themselves safe during something, I don't know what it is, I get these sometimes with people, okay what I'll do, I'll go online to see what's going on, so look at the news, we don't always get stuff that's going on in other countries, we get it, but you've kind of got to search for it generally,

unless it's, unless it's it's political, so we hear stuff to do with politics, political people, political people, politicians, that's it, no, nothing, so, so, okay, can't see anything, I think it's in America, so let's have a look, local news, England, world, let's go to world, let's see what's there, oh, go back, world, hmm, can't reach this page, can't reach this page, really, why not, the internet's disconnected for some reason, oh, it's connected again, so what's the problem, that's very strange, breaking news, CNN, let's have a look, CNN, and nope,

nothing on here about the thing that was mentioned on Facebook, nope, Warren Buffett reveals the company he's invested in billions of dollars in, okay, that's interesting to me, for some reason, the mystery, the mystery is over, Warren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway disclosed a major stake in the insurance company Chubb, finally revealing the investment he has kept under wraps since last year, Berkshire reveals it acquired nearly 26 million shares of Chubb in a Wednesday Securities and Exchange Commission, in a Wednesday Securities, right,

I think that should have been in Wednesday's Securities and Exchange Commission filing of the company's first quarter investments, not in a Wednesday Securities, that translates to a value of approximately 6.7 billion dollars, Buffett's company, or Buffet, his company has shielded the position from public knowledge, as it was building a stake, requesting confidential treatment from the SEC in previous filings, Chubb, I didn't know Chubb was an insurance company, I thought they made locks, didn't they, Chubb, don't they make locks, Chubb, an insurance business that operates in 54 countries,

made headlines in March after the company underwrote President Donald Trump's nearly 92 million appeal bond in whatever, so I'm confused, why is Donald Trump applying to become President if he's already President, he's already President, let's just call him President, and it actually confused me, that it did, I know why now, but it used to confuse me, I know I knew then it confused me, but why, and apparently if you've ever been President, you're always President, which means that surely any living President, the previous President,

can just walk into the White House and tell people what to do, they're all Presidents, Clinton, he's still around, President, Obama, President, oh, not Nixon, is Nixon still around, Nixon, I think he, I don't think he's, is he still around, Nixon, no, what, no, I thought he was around for a long time, I didn't realise he was, he, oh, Nixon, 1913 to 1994, I thought he was still around, okay, sorry, and here's the other one, Bush, Bush, nope, George W.

Bush, so he's still around, he's 90, is he 90, 77, and he's, I think his Daddy, where is, oh, relatives, the Bush family, George H. W.

Bush, he's, he's not around, is he still, no, yeah, he's passed away in 2018, so, so there's one, two, Bush Jr, Clinton, Obama, Obama, Obama, Obama, Trump, Biden, Biden, what other ones, that's it, so there's five Presidents in the USA, I can't think there's any others, that's everyone, isn't it, that's still, that's still around, so five Presidents, yeah, there's only one President, but there's five Presidents, yeah, there's only one President, but it's actually five, so I don't, I'm confused, so, yeah, I'm confused, no, it doesn't, it doesn't take a lot for me to get confused, to be honest, I do remember, however, when George W.

Bush, he was the 43rd President of the United States, and then he got taken over by Clinton, no, no, the other Bush, his daddy got, took over by Clinton, so let's have a look, yeah, I don't know what year that was, 1991, wasn't it, was it 91 or 92, perhaps timeline, let's have a look, okay, so President Bush Presidency, this is the second one, 2001 until 2009, really, I didn't think, really, oh, okay, so Clinton 1993 to 2000, no, because timeline 2001 said 1993 to, right,

he was the President from January 20th 1993 until some other time, so, yeah, 1993, I remember the headlines In The Sun, and, oh, what was it, oh, I think it was, let me think of it, I still gotta find it, it might be this, Sun newspaper when Clinton won, let's have a look, it might be there, you don't know, do you, huge turnout beats Bush by a landslide, okay, right, fair enough, The Sun, yeah, The Sun might, oh, I can't find it, it was something, Clinton, something, something,

no wonder Bill was afraid of Biden, oh, come on, you'd think they'd have it there, wouldn't you, no, it's not there, I'll think of it, I can't remember it but I do, I do remember it, well, obviously, I don't remember it, do I, but, Clinton beats Bush, something like that, maybe it was a different wording, and, yeah, but it was, I remember that, it's such a long time ago as well, it's like 50 odd years, and I just remember it, I don't remember it clearly, it's not like,

that's a weird sound you just made, really, that's a very strange sound, it's not like really clear, like, oh, I remember that, like it was 30 years ago, that's that kind of clearness, just, oh, Clinton beats Bush, Clinton, something, anyway, I remember, he was popular, Clinton, wasn't he, for, to begin with, anyway, I remember he was like, it was, he was playing the, playing the trumpet or something, wasn't he, he was like a jazz, a jazz artist, and he's a good looking man, everyone loved him, and we thought he was cool as well,

in the UK of England, Britain, in Europe, Commonwealth, we really, really, really liked him a lot, who did we have at the time, 1993, John Major, and he'd, yeah, I think John Major was the, the, our version of, he was like our version of Bill Clinton, he was another one that was admired, you know, very cool, groovy man, and we have a, we have a thing in this country, I don't know what it is, of trying to pick people that sound a bit strange, like, as Prime Minister or of,

or as the opposition, so you had Margaret Thatcher, this lady is not for turning, like that, sort of squeaky, growly kind of voice, and then you had John Major, my name is John Major, and he talked like this, although I like John Major actually, he seemed like a nice bloke, but he's like really, and yes, and now, Miss Speaker, and then who do we have, we had Tony Blair, and you know it's this way, and it, okay, didn't sound like that, but he was very, very pretendy, very dramatic, very drama,

if you, it's almost like he'd, he was doing a show, and he'd rehearsed, and yeah, I don't know, it was, but it's funny the way it got him, because he was very much, it was very crisp, the way he presented, so he was out of the norm, he wasn't like the others, and then you got, in recent years, it's all, I don't know, I mean, even now, you've got Starmer, and he talks like this, yes, hello, I will be the new Prime Minister, and he's, one of his predecessors was Milligan,

Milliband, and even Churchill, today, we will fight them on the field, a little, did you know, did you know that Princess Diana was related to Churchill, did you know that, didn't know that, did you, see, that's what comes with having too much time on your hands, Princess Diana, let's have a look, Diana and Churchill, let's see, how do their paths cross, let's have a look, okay, so Princess family, the Spencer family, redirects from the Spencer Churchill family, two parents, two prominent members of the family during the 20th century were Winston Churchill and Diana Princess of Wales,

so she was, so if I just look up that, so look up, let's have a look, so let's have a look at the Churchill bit, Churchill, Churchill, Churchill, Churchill, early life, the Spencer guys, oh, okay, okay, I'm going to find it, because I've read it before, I know it's true, must be true, personal life, me, me, me, me, me, me, problem, okay, I want to read about that, no, don't want to read about that, don't want to read about that, Churchill, that's the only thing I'm interested in right now,

right this second, nothing else, thank you very much for attending, nope, nope, nope, nope, nope, don't want to hear about that, don't want to hear, nope, nope, no, thanks, right, that's quite a big page, landmines, right, nope, so I've got to find out if it's true, because otherwise I'm going to come across as a liar, I don't want to come across as a liar, you know, I tell a few fibs now and then most of the time, but not a liar, not like lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, right,

it's 100% related to him, 100%, princess, it's here somewhere, it's here somewhere, early life, so the Spencer family, which was her original family, has been closely allied with the British royal family for several generations, uh, he's weird, it was in there, I'm pretty sure it was in there, never mind, I'll tell you what, I'm going to find it, I'm going to find it, here we go, I'm just going to just do a Google, in fact I'm not going to do Google, I'm going to let go of that one,

I'm going to go to chat GPT, because chat GPT is quicker, and it will search without the nonsense, without all the rubbish, so was princess Deanna related to Winstorn Churchill, Church Hill, right, right, yes, see straight away, no like 100 different pages with stuff that had nothing to do with it, yes, princess Deanna and Winstorn Churchill were distantly related, they both descended from the Spencer family, a prominent British Aristotle family, family, and Diana Princess of Wales was born, Diana Francis Frankie Prince Spencer, and Frank Spencer, how funny is that,

only some mothers do have them, have you not heard, have you not heard of some mothers do have them, one of the greatest sitcoms this country ever produced, check it out on YouTube, some mothers do have them, so it's A V E M, spelled wrongly, but it's you know, and it's Frank Spencer is the main character, and Betty who's his wife, very funny, it's from the 70s, but it's really good, their lineage can be traced back to John Spencer, the first Earl Spencer, who was one of Winstorn Churchill's ancestors,

Winstorn Churchill, the connection makes them distant cousins, showcasing the intertwining of noble family lines in British history, oh it's really weird, after all that kerfuffle, it didn't really seem worth it did it at the end, I went through all of that, searching, months of research, and it's just, okay, there you go, they were related, distantly, distance, and okay, let's have a look, I've got a couple of comments, have you, okay, so I've got, I've got a few comments for tomorrow, this is good, thank you everyone, this is groovy, groovy, groovy,

groovy, groovy, groovy, groovy, groovy, groovy, groovy, groovy, groovy, groovy, so cool, so I've got enough questions definitely for tomorrow, and oh, it's all up, no it's still waiting, it's not uploaded yet, all the different videos I uploaded, only one's been uploaded, which means I'm trying to upload something that's way too big, let me just see what that one is, it is 13.7 gigabytes, that's why, in fact, let's just get rid of that then, because that's ridiculous, I don't need to upload a 13 gigabyte video to YouTube, especially as it hasn't even got a name on it,

it's just got like different weird letters, so I've got no idea what it was, so I wonder if it's raining, it's been raining today a lot, a lot, it didn't rain last time I went out, so I've been out three times so far today, and I'll go out, I might go out again in a minute, and then one last time, he's shaking, why is he shaking, Vinnie, why are you shaking mate, you can't be cold, all right Vin, ain't got a shake, he's not scared, I know that,

he doesn't get scared of anything, I wonder why he's shaking, maybe he's dreaming, he's dreaming he's in the snow, I don't know, he has seen snow, the only time he saw snow was the first week of me having him, and it was snowing that week, so I was taking him out, and then by the end of the week the snow had gone, so I got him on a Saturday, Sunday it snowed, he settled, and then by the end of the week it was gone, that's my memory of it,

oh it's a big motorbike, just shook the entire street, wow it's loud, right, well I'm going to go anyway, because I'm gonna maybe have a little bit of a read, I might take him out for a little bit, I'll be reading a book, I'll just open this up so I can tell you what it is I'm reading, it's on the Kindle, I've been reading, reading, reading, reading, reading, reading, reading, reading, how to be right, and it's a book by, let's go back to see who wrote it, how to be right,

James O'Brien, and I started reading this today on page 34, 20 percent in, and it's good, he's a radio presenter, and he's like liberal, and I'm kind of liberal I guess, I don't, I don't even like to give myself labels like that, but he likes to try and see both sides of the story, both opinions, and then likes to challenge the other person's opinions, I like to see both sides, but then I don't challenge, because that's, people don't like to be challenged, but I do,

I do like to try and get an idea what other people, their opinions are, and why, how they got to there, just out of interest, that's all, so yeah, I like to see both sides of the argument, rather than taking one side, and sticking to it, regardless, regardless of the evidence, or lack of, so yeah, I've been reading that, it's been quite good, and I haven't really read much for ages, so it took me a little while to get back into it, to get back into reading again, like that,

because I was so used to just reading on a computer, and um, yeah, the good thing about this is, if there's a word that I don't understand, which does happen, in the old days, I just, I could figure out what it meant, within the context of the sentence, or the paragraph, but with this, with the Kindle, you just click on the word, and the dictionary comes up, and tells you, or thesaurus, depending on whatever it is, it just tells you what, what the word means, it's like, okay, this is good,

this is weird, his back legs are flipping, I think he's asleep, maybe, I think he's dreaming, of running or something, I hope he's okay, very strange, I'm going to see if he's all right, I'll speak to you later, so thank you for listening, remember to be kind to yourself, because you do deserve to be happy, be gentle with yourself, and I will speak to you tomorrow, I am making the Friday Q&A, Q&A Friday, sorry, Q&A Friday, tomorrow, so lots of love, bye.
