Welcome to the Two Cripples,
One Pair of Legs podcast,
where every fortnight your hosts
Adam Sheppard and Natasha Price
take a long, hard look
at the world through the
eyes of two people who
believe in grabbing life by
the balls and squeezing tighter
than Borat in a mankini.
The good, the bad, the
often cringe worthy, but most
importantly, the hilarity that can
and often does ensue. If
you're looking for fluffy sunshine
and rainbows, my little pony
meets care bears type of
purity, you've probably come to
the wrong place if you're
after good conversation, warped humour,
quick wit, a touch of
sarcasm, two proud people with
disabilities with the No Holes
Bar leave, no stump unturned.
outlook on life. Welcome home.
Are we live? Are we
ready? I think we're ready
to roll.
All right. You can tell
this is the first time
we've done this.
We've done podcasts before, but
not our own. This
Is true. This is
True. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. How
are you Tash?
I'm great. I'm great. I'm
really excited to be here.
I've gotta admit I am
incredibly nervous. This is, this
is a new experience for
me. Yeah. I I'm not
quite as good as you
at just starting conversations,
So that's because I just
talk a lot of shit.
Basically,
You talk the hind legs
of a donkey song.
Well, yeah, that, that
Too. In fact, I've never
met a person like you
that can strike up a
conversation in a supermarket queue
or just random conversations with
random people constantly. Our day
goes out by about half
an hour each time, because
you just talk to people
all the
Time. It's called public relations.
Yes. You like to think
you are the Invincable public
relations officer.
Don, you. I am the,
am
The, I'm sorry. Sorry. Manager.
Manager.
Yeah. True that, true. That,
true that. So welcome to
Wow. Our very first podcast.
This is super cool. Yes.
This is super, super cool.
It really is. So it's
the Two Cripples, One Pair
of Legs podcast.
Yep. And for those of
you that don't know me,
I'm Adam.
Hey
Adam. And you'd be Tash?
I am.
I said Natasha before and
you got mad at me.
I did. I did. I
was like, "do not call
me Natasha". That's just for
people when they're angry at
me. And I really hope
you're not angry at me
during this podcast, Natasha. I
think my mum uses that
a lot.
Yeah, true that. Yes. Yeah.
I think I've probably heard
that once or twice. Yeah.
Probably. Yeah.
I'm not in trouble. Yeah.
Okay. Maybe I am.
So we should probably talk
about why we came up
with this podcast idea and
the name. Absolutely. So our
friends out there in listener
land Yeah. Can know a
little bit more about us
and, and why this has
happened.
Absolutely. So this, this very,
very unusual and fun name
obviously relates to us as
individuals. In the intro there,
you would've heard, for those
of you that don't know
us, that we are both
people with disabilities cripples. We
are, we are. I mean,
we own that shit.
We do, we do. There's
no point in sugarcoating it
that that's what we are.
And, and we work it
to our own.
We, yeah, we do it.
Well. The the one pair
of legs thing though.
Yeah. So I've been a
wheelchair user my entire life.
I was born with Spina
Bifida and, but about, oh,
so, so it was the
end,
End of July,
End of July, 25th of
July, I went into hospital
and I had a infection
in my foot. Something that
I've had for a long,
long time on and off.
And I basically, long story
short, the doctor came in
and he said, Well, you
know the drill, you're gonna
be on antibiotics for a
while. Probably be in here
for a week. And then
there's wound care in all
the usual. And you know,
if we've got any other
wheelchair users who've dealt with
pressure wounds and circulation and
stuff out there, you'll know
what I'm talking about. And
you know, this has been
an ongoing thing for me
for about 15 or 20
years. And I doctor said,
you know, wound care, all
that sort of thing.
And I said, You know
what? I'm sick of this.
Get rid of them. So
I thought
You say this as a
story, but you know, you
talk about the doctors and
the infections and all that
kind of stuff, but I'm
pretty sure that, you know,
you, you became legless just
because you wanted attention.
Pretty much. Yeah. It was
extreme weight loss.
You're like, I really wanna
lose 20 kilos. Oh, I
know how.
Pretty much, Yeah. Why was
my gym not having a,
a 12 week challenge or
something around that time?
Yeah, I know, right?
That would've been so cool.
Can you imagine? You know,
So how did your weight
loss journey go? Oh yeah.
I chop my legs off.
I'm all good.
I would, I would've liked
to think I would've been
a shoe in for that.
I reckon
A shoe in excuse in
Property bomb. I don't have
shoes anymore. It's really awkward
cuz I keep going to
shoe shops and looking in
there. Go, Oh, that's a
real, Oh, hang on. I
don't anymore. Yeah. Whoops. Yeah.
So what about you, Natasha?
Did you actually talk about
losing your legs? Cuz I
can't remember whether we just
went completely off on a
tangent and completely forgot where
we were at with that.
No,
I've, yeah, So,
Okay. Okay. Oh, hang on,
hang on, hang on, hang
on. Adam's legless on the
job again. I've just discovered
a button here.
So what we should probably
do is our, our good
friend, good new friend Ruby
here has hooked us up
with some buttons with some
quick grabs. So I'm really,
really excited about exploring these
and see what they, Should
we give 'em a quick
Run? Yeah, go for it.
Go for
It. Go for it. All
right. So we've got that
one
Adam's legless on the job
again. Right.
And then we've got
Fuck off subway sandwich. I
think we should explain the
subway sandwich thing.
So I've, I've picked up
since losing my legs, I've
picked up the, I've picked
up the nickname Subway sandwich
because I'm only about a
foot long now.
You were short as before
and now you're even shorter
now. Yeah. So I can't
Talk. So my legs, My
legs were taken from above
the knee. So it actually,
I was short before and,
well now I'm really, really
short
About a foot long, About
foot long. What other buttons
do we have there?
Ah, let's give this a
go. Go back to Hobbiton.
That one's for you.
That's
For you. You've been there
though. I have. You have
been hobbiton. I have,
Yeah. I fit right.
Did you find your brethren?
I did all the houses.
There were the perfect size
for me. Oh,
We going back there too.
We are next week. Yeah.
Yeah. Maybe you could take
some stuff and move. No,
don't move by that. I
need you. I need you
for the podcast. Doesn't work
with just me. Don't make
me pull out a hurdle.
Yeah. So maybe we should
explain this one a little
bit.
Okay. Yeah. So you're gonna
hear this one a lot
cuz I really like using
it. So how long ago
Tash?
2019.
2019. So Tash is a
wheelchair racer and, or I
tried to be, anyway. Tried
to be a wheelchair. No,
you're you're a good one.
You're a good one. Your
co I mean, your coach
is awesome. Yeah.
You would say that It's
you.
Yeah. Yeah. So I coach
Tash as a wheelchair racer
who does wheelchair marathon. And
anyway, we're at the local
athletics track training back then.
And you were doing laps
in your racing chair on
the track and somebody moved
a hurdle into your lane
Yes. Without you noticing. Yeah.
And your, So
We should, we should probably
point out that I, My
vision
Is, I was gonna say
you're not, you can't see
very well. So
I basically can't see shit.
I'm legally blind in my
right eye and low vision
in my left. So unless
something is right in front
of my face, I can't
see a damn thing.
So yeah. So you hit
the hurdle.
I did face on face
planted the hurdle. Yeah.
Big, big cut across the
bridge of your nose. I
remember. Roll you. Not so
much.
Don't remember a damn thing.
Yeah. Yeah. And, and so
now every time, you know,
task drives to give me
a little bit of cheek
or whatever. I do the,
where's the button? Don't make
me pull out a hurdle.
That one,
Right? Yep. I reckon there's
another button here.
Oh, we got one
More. Oh, yep, yep. Yeah.
Shut up your Legless Hobbit.
We like the Hobbit thing.
Clearly
That, that nicknamed that nickname
changed though, didn't it? Because
originally, what did you used
to call me something
Else because you were missing
a few toes. So you
were, you were a to
Bent legged.
Bent legged hobbit. But you
know, the legs are gone
now. So you're just got
legless hobbit. You, you obviously
got on the mead and
got
Legless. I did, I did.
Yes. So if you haven't
already picked it, Tash and
I are very much about
giving each other a hard
time. And pretty much anybody
else who deserves getting a
hard time will get one
here too. We are very
real about our disabilities and,
and what we talk about.
And we are just us.
We are absolutely just us.
I think a few, a
few people have noticed the
way that we banter and
they said, you know what,
you guys should give podcast
and a ghost. Here
We are. So here we
are. This one is probably
gonna be a bit rough,
but we'll, we'll get you
to the end. And everything
We do is a bit
rough around the edges to
be honest.
What did, what was that
saying? I saw the other
that somebody used the other
day. Rough as a badges
ass. Yes.
Oh, you thought that was
great. And that's that is
a very Pommy saying, us
Brits say that ever such
a lot and yeah, I'm
so glad that you are
now on board.
Oh, I love that. But
I say if I said
it here, it'd probably, you
know, I'll have to come
up with like an Aussie
version
Of it. Yeah. As rough
as a kangaroos balls or
something. Yeah,
Yeah. True
That.
So should we get into
our first segment? So the
social media takedown? Yes, yes,
yes. So this one's all
about social media takedown is,
is basically all about stuff
people say and, and post
on social media that basically
they need roasting over.
Yeah, absolutely. And you know,
especially in our lives, we
get a lot of people
saying a lot of crazy
shit to us on social.
So yeah, they do. We
thought that we would sit
here, have a conversation and
see where it leads.
It deserved its own segment
in, in our podcast. Just
because you wouldn't believe some
of the crazy crap that
people coming up with. You
just, you just wouldn't, if
you didn't see it. If
you didn't see it with
your own two eyes, you
won't see it cuz you're
blind. True. Trust me. It's
there. Yep.
So this, this week we're
gonna talk about a message
that I receive. So I
put a post out on
socials on my 42nd birthday.
Yes. I'm 42. I do
generally not tell people that.
I hope to pretend that
I'm 30 for the rest
of my life, but not
sure that the wrinkles are
gonna allow me to do
that for much longer. So
I've put a post out,
something, which I considered to
be a bit of a
motivational, bit of an inspirational
post about turning 42, yet
going out chasing dreams and
leaving the life that I'd
all want. Always wanted to
lead in my thirties when
I was bed band for
10 years. And in this
post that is a photograph
of me on my birthday
night, I'm about to go
out to dinner with Adam.
It was a great night.
Yeah. Friends, family, all of
us, you know, have a
really good time. I'm wearing
a little leather jacket and
a singlet. And below that
photograph a well todo businessman,
somebody who should really know
better has written the comment.
Nice cleavage. Wow. I have
a bit of a problem
with this and I'm sure
most women do read the
room guys, If somebody is
writing a motivational post, if
they're writing something about their
day, if they're not there
getting their boobs out for
everyone to see, they're probably
not inviting those kind of
comments. So maybe think about
what you write before you
post.
Now, the worst thing, the
worst thing about this post
was when I called this
guy out on it and
I, and I was very
kind, I was very diplomatic
and, and I said, and
I said something along the
lines of, do you feel
that this is an appropriate
comment on this post? And
not only did he tell
me to back off and
He, he had people actually
sticking up for him. Yeah.
Like, there were other people
that joined in and like,
Oh, don't listen to her.
It was a compliment. I'm
like, on what planet, on
what planet is saying to
somebody on a social media.
I mean, you know, unless
you're on bloody
Only fans.
Only fans or porn hub
or something, you know, where
something like that might be
deemed appropriate. But, but on
what planet is that considered
a compliment? Like Yeah,
They're like, he's, I mean,
in his friends post were
like, Oh, she's clearly not
used to people giving her
compliments. She, she, she obviously
likes the attention and doesn't
know how to cope with
it and all, all these
kind of things. And really
tried to shame me into
sticking up for myself. And
I, I think, I think
the best comment of the
day actually came from my
sister. I wish I had
access to my socials right
now cause I'd love to
read it out. But my,
my sister said something about,
something about, you know, not
talking about the body parts
of people of the opposite
sex. It's not appropriate.
And that she would say
exactly the same thing. She
then finished it off signing
off by saying, nice cock
shame. It's on your head.
Which I just think is
rather appropriate and pretty much
right, that, you know, these
people that get into these
conversations on so on social,
like there, there's a really,
really big difference between thinking
somebody's hot thinking, somebody's attractive,
saying to them, You look
good, you look nice, whatever.
To which, I mean, I
would just say thanks or
I'm sure most people would
say the same. It's very,
very different to actually pointing
out somebody's body parts. And
you know, I've, we've, we've
recently had a friend that's
posted about this as well.
She was saying that somebody
commented on her breasts and,
you know, nice tits or
whatever. And it's like, well
why, why should we have
to put up with that
bullshit and not call people
out on it? How much?
And it goes, do you
know what, it goes both
ways, whether it's male or
female, you know, any gender,
it doesn't matter. You shouldn't
be pointing out people's body
parts. If, if that's not
what they are inviting by
what they're talking about on,
on socials. It's just, it's
not appropriate. And, you know,
people that are apparently well
to do businessmen should know
better. They're not, you know,
they're not bogan street kids
that are, you know, little
teenagers that don't know what's
appropriate and what's not in
a situation. No, it, it's
just not right.
People are gonna be dicks.
Well, yes, yes, they can,
They can be.
You see, you sound like
you just came to an
epiphany with that. Like you
didn't realize
Oh, no. At this point,
no. No. I mean, I,
I don't often get, people
call me hot or say
I've got, I mean, I
do have great cleavage.
I was about to say,
I thought you were gonna
say, you know, that you've
got nice legs. I'm like,
well, they ain't gonna say
that to you now.
No, no, no, no, no
legs. No legs, no legs.
Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, so that's
my, that's my point of
view with this whole, with
This whole thing. Absolutely.
Socials, for whatever reason, people
seem to forget their manners
and, and forget their humanity
when it, when it comes
To and forget they're actually
Yeah. They're talking to other
people. Yeah. It's not like
you're talking to a robot
or No. You know, a
bot on the internet or,
you know, whatever.
Yep, exactly. You're talking to
another human being. So have
a little bit of respect
and if, and see, okay,
he said what he said,
but really the way for
him to have dealt with
that would've been to say,
Sorry, I apologize. I I
didn't think that I was
doing anything wrong, but clearly
I I was, and I'm
sorry for making you feel
that way. Even though I
explained to him that him,
it made, made me uncomfortable.
He, he and his friends
tried to shame me into
thinking I was, I was
doing something wrong. And that's,
that's not how you deal
with that. It doesn't, it
doesn't matter what the situation
is. If somebody tells you
they're uncomfortable, don't do it.
Apologize and, and move on.
Even if you don't agree
with what they're saying. Just
if you are making them
uncomfortable, then, you know, that's
just not
On, kind of goes along.
There's a whole language and
thing. We'll get into that
in another episode for sure.
Oh, like, I'm sure with
this stuff we can
Carry on, man. We'll open
up again, words with that
one.
Absolutely.
But yeah, so that is
the social media take down.
So every episode we aim
to have something that we
can basically pull apart and
something that's been needed said
to us or said somebody
we know it's
Something we can pull apart.
Generally it'll be me pulling
you
Apart. Pulling me apart. Where's
that hurdle button? Oh,
Jesus. Be a legless ho.
I got the wrong one.
Hang on. Don't make me
pull out a hurdle. Yeah,
that's the right one. Yeah.
You need to learn where
they are.
Yeah, no, I'll figure, I'll
figure all that out. So,
yeah, so we'll, that'll be
a fortnightly when we do
our podcast. That'll be a
fortnightly segment and watch out.
You might feature.
Yeah, exactly right. You probably
should watch what you say
to us. And, and I
think we are just going
to, you know, point out
all sorts of different things
that we see on socials
because there's, there's a lot
out there to talk about,
that's for sure.
Absolutely. Yeah. Absolutely. So next
segment. Next segment.
There you go.
The water cooler. The water
cooler. So normally with this
one, the water cooler, we've
decided, or we've, we've designed
to be an interview segment.
So what we're going to
have on the podcast will
be people to interview and
we will also have guest
co-hosts as well. So time
to time we'll have people,
guest host, guest co-host, try
and get my words out.
You do, Considering you're on
a podcast, you're not doing
very well.
Sorry, I'm ashamed, but, and
we'll do that. But pretty
much every, every episode, unless
we can't get somebody, we'll
have somebody to interview. But
we thought for this one,
since this is our very
first, we should interview each
other.
Absolutely. We should. Yeah. So
yeah, if we thought, you
know, a little bit of
a chance for the audience
to get to know us
a little bit better and
I, I'm sure there's some
weird and wonderful questions that
they'd have. Have we had
any questions come in from
the live?
Let me have a look.
Might be, might be interesting
to see if anyone's got
any questions for
Us. Oh, we have two.
Okay. We're just getting access
to the iPad so we
can see what the, the
questions are.
So the water cooler.
The water cooler.
Yeah. So we, we thought
that basically we would test
our interviewing skills out on
each other because yeah, we're
a little bit rusty and
we don't really want to
subject the general public to
us at the moment. It'll
be very, very interesting to
see how this goes because
I don't imagine I am
the best interviewer in the
world. My questions tend to
be a little bit messed
up. So, but we have
written some and we are
taking questions from the live
audience. Absolutely. If anybody is
interested.
I'm just trying to see
how we see these, these
on here. Oh, they'll pop
up at the bottom. Okay.
Thank you Ruby.
Okay. See, we're very lucky.
We've got a producer here
to help us out.
She's awesome,
As you can
Tell me. She's awesome.
We're not quite streamlined yet.
Awesome. So first question, do
you wanna go first or
do you want me to
go first?
I will ask you a
question.
All right, sweet.
Okay. Okay. Okay. I gotta
point out that you wrote
this question
Because
Every time I see it
makes me laugh
Bit. Does it creep you
out? Yeah,
Creeps me out. Awesome. Okay,
you guys, you'll see why
and I, if you could
spend 24 hours in the
body of someone else, dead
or alive, who would it
be? No, I have to
point out here, Adam, if
you are talking about being
inside a dead person for
24 hours, I feel like
you may have a little
bit of an issue with
necrophilia.
Do you think
There's, there's some weird
Stuff. Maybe
Weird stuff
Going on. Maybe I need
to, I need to think
about that question
Anyway. Let's be serious for
a second. Go ahead
Answer. I would say, ah,
the, the Aussie I'm try
Hugh Jackman. Hugh Jackman.
Ah, you'd like to be
Wolverine.
Ah, wouldn't I just like,
I mean, I'd be the
crippled version, but you know,
I'd be wolverine.
Although, although I just gotta
say
Slightly less abled than him,
but
Yeah, well, you know, he
heals himself so I'm sure
that grow legs back and
be, be all good. True.
That I, I gotta point
out that if I feel
like you wanna be Hugh
Jackman, not because you wanna
be Wolverine more because you
wanna be kind of boy
from Oz,
You know, a hundred percent.
I mean,
Musical genius, you know, you're
all about the music.
Look, if I had a
man crush it, it would
be him. A hundred percent
that decon sing. If you,
if I, No, I, sorry.
Okay, let's rephrase that. My
man crush. Hello Hugh. If
you're watching it's you buddy.
It's
You. Yeah, sorry. Carry off.
There's
A dude he can sing,
he can dance, he can
act.
Yeah, he can do pretty
much
Anything. Yeah, I just, he's
a cool guy. He's just
a cool guy and yeah.
And he's wolfing, so, you
know. Right. Yeah. What possibly
more is there?
Yeah. Can you cook?
I don't know.
See like, I mean, you
like your food,
But I can kind of
cook. So Yeah, we'd work
that out. Yeah.
Kind. Cook, cook,
Cook, kind, cook,
Cook.
What about you? If you
could spend 24 hours in
the body of somebody else
dead or alive, gotta add
that bit in since we're
probably gonna ditch it for
the next one. Who
Probably you like, I really
wanna see what messed up
shit goes on in your
Head. Like,
I like you, you are
so different from any other
human being I've ever, I've
ever met. Like, you'll just
be, you know, walking around
a super, you don't walk
anywhere, but I don't know
if you'll be going around
a supermarket with, you know,
singing at the top of
your voice. Yet if I
ask you to sing, you
would not.
Yeah, no,
You're, I just, I would
love
To. It's conscious singing. That's
what it is. It's subconscious.
I just, I'd love to
be inside your head for,
for a little while just
cuz I think it would
be interesting up there. I'd
like to be able to
figure out that's what, that's
what
It comes time to. There's
not enough, not enough counseling
in the world for that.
Trust me,
This is very, very true.
Is a bit of a
scary prospect. But still, that
is my answer.
Fair enough. So second question,
what's one food that you
would never under any circumstances
eat?
Sweet bread. Sweet bread? Yes.
Okay. So people are
Actually, oh, what's that? Hannibal
Lecter.
People aren't gonna actually know
what this is. So it's
like pancreas, like animal pancreas.
Hang on a minute. You're
type one diabetic.
Oh. So really what you're
saying is I could eat
the pancreas and suddenly be
cured. It might be my
owns
Insulin. I wonder if that's
how it works. Because you
know, some of our organs
regenerate if we take, you
know, things so far as
I understand for, I mean
I'm, I've been in surgery
many, many times. I'm, I'm
not much of a surgeon
myself. Trust me. Don't want
that. But yeah, I wonder
if that's a, if that's
a thing if
You yeah, if I, if
I ate it. See, maybe
that's the problem. That's probably
the reason I'm still diabetic
now. I've just never eaten
sweet breads. Yeah. Like why,
why call it sweet bread?
That's, that's the other thing.
Yeah. Like they
Are that's got me confused.
They're pancreas. They're just trying
to pret up what you're
actually eating. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And it's kind of gross.
So Yeah, cuz like when
I, when I hear sweet
bread. Yeah. And, and the
very first time I ever
heard that say that, that
being said sweet breads was
Hannibal
Hannibal
Yeah. Was watching Hannibal and
it was like, oh, okay,
cool. But I, I literally,
I went straight to like
sourdough. I did, I
Sourdough isn't sweet. Yeah, yeah.
Maybe like banana bread or
something.
Yeah, banana bread. Yeah, banana
bread. Lots of, Oh,
What's that? Homer.
Oh,
Okay. So same question to
you. What's the one food
you'd never
Eat? Brains. Brains. Brains cannot
do it. I, I don't
understand why. I'm sure if
they taste good, all good
and well, but yeah, the
brains, I just, I can't
get my head around that.
I, I can't stand the
thought of anything like awful,
anything like that. Just
Yeah, yeah,
Yeah. It's bad enough when
you actually think what meat
is when you, when you're
eating it, but start thinking
about all those little bits.
Thanks. Yeah.
Yeah. No, next question. So
what's at the top of
your bucket list? Tash.
I, I don't, I think
it's a really tough one
for me. I've done
Done some cool shit,
Done some really cool shit
in my life. And I
can honestly say that I
don't really have much of
a bucket list anymore. I,
I mean, for me, I
guess it would be something
like competing at the Paralympics.
Yes. Yeah.
Yeah. That's, you know, that's
my ultimate goal. That's where,
that's where I want to
go. That's, you know, that's
where I see myself heading.
So, yeah. I guess for
me that's, it's, it's a
work thing kind of, but
it's also, it's also what
I want most in the
World. Yeah, absolutely. It's your,
that's your focus and, you
know. Absolutely.
So I guess that for
me is top of my
bucket list. I mean, there's
lots of other really cool
stuff I'd like to go,
but I wouldn't really necessarily
see them as bucket list
items. Just stuff I'd like
to do stuff.
Yeah.
Just I'm, you know, the
coolest thing I ever did,
one of the coolest things
I ever did, which was
at the very, very top
of my bucket list, was
swinging through the jungle in
northern Queensland in Cairns
Hard pass. Ah, hard pass.
Yeah. It was a hard
pass. You were booked in
to do it with me.
And guess who
Flaked dance. I went straight
to the bar and bought
a beer. Yeah. Watch be
swinger. Actually that's, that shit
was not happening.
So what, what did you
think then on the, my
second go when I went
back up for round two,
she's
Freaking nuts. What
The fuck
Is wrong with this check?
Much, pretty much. Yeah. No,
I, so I have a
serious, serious dislike for heights.
So yeah, I, we kind
of went in there, saw
the swing, and saw somebody
else doing it and sweaty
palms ensued. Yes. And I
was like, yeah, no. So
I And
You gave in?
Yeah. Okay. Yeah, I did.
You know what this one
went through to the keeper?
It did, it
Did the, the, it's look,
it's, it is the coolest
experience in the world. So
you are in Cairns in
the tropical rainforest. You are
55, 60 meters above the
canopy. It's freaking incredible up
there. They, you, they put
you into a harness and
wouldn't you up to the
top of the trees and
you are just dangling there
for dear life. Now the
scariest thing about it is
you are up there and
you get control of when
you are going to drop.
So you are holding on
to this, this rope that
you have to pull to
just allow yourself to free
for through the jungle and
end up, I guess in
an area where there's a
little waterfall, little lake where
they do bungee jumping and
all sorts.
But that's the thing, when
you are up there swinging,
just, you know, dangling for
deer life, there's a little
bit of wind up there.
You're in the top of
the canopy, there's, and you
are kind of swinging and,
and they have to wait
for you to stabilize. And
you are getting shakier and
shakier thinking, am I actually
gonna be able to pull
this thing to allow myself
to drop? But that feeling
when you are dropping through
the air and then swinging
50 meters down to the
bottom and then coming back
up again, there is nothing
like it in the world.
It's freaking incredible. Loved every
second of it. You missed
a treat, my friend.
Hey, look, if I wanna
swing through trees, I would've
been born a monkey.
Well, I'm pretty sure I've
told you a few times
that you're in a tang
with your, with how long
your are are
Yeah, that's true. Well, my
arms just look longer now
cause I've got no legs.
Your arms come down to
where your feet used
To. Yeah, that, that's a
good point. Yeah, no, it
was very cool. And you
know, maybe in another life
I'd, I'd give it a
go. Yeah. But yeah, yeah.
You look like you were
having fun.
Oh god, it was the
best. Yeah. I mean, there's
a video of me coming
down from the top going,
Fuck yeah. All those poor
children that were watching you
too. I know. Mind you,
there was a guy who
did it in the nutty
too. Did you?
Oh yeah. No, he, I'd
see, I thought that he'd,
he'd come down to the
bottom and his buddy smugglers
his Yeah, I
Did too.
Bottoms had swing swimming trunks
and actually fallen off. But
no,
I, when I went up,
I went up to the
Canada ask, probably buying another
beer or something like that.
And I'm like, the dude,
he's, he lost and she's
like, No, no, he was,
he was just jumping in
the nude. And I'm like,
oh,
He looked like he regretted
that, by the way. Yeah.
I
Think he must have hit
the water at a fair
bit of speed and hurt
is tackle. Yep.
Yeah. Well they say the
higher up, the harder you
hit. So, Ouch. Yeah,
No, I'm not, I'm sure
the part where he was
dangling upside down and his
appendage was dangling with him
would've been a bit interesting.
That's for sure.
Oh geez. Oh god. Swing
You mean into the word
swingers. I
Was gonna swinging in the
breeze. No. Oh dear.
All right, so question to
you then. What's at the
top of your bucket list?
Swimming with whale sharks. Yeah.
Yep. Oh, see, I'd love
to do that.
Ah, I'd be all over
that. I am, I am
ocean obsessed. I am ocean
obsessed. If I, you know,
if I could just live
in the water, that's what
I do. I'm just, I
love everything about the ocean
and
Yeah. Okay. Well call light
to all the tourism operators
out there. If you have
an accessible boat that does
tours of swimming with whales,
I'm your wear whale short
sharks. Both of us are
interested in doing this. Yeah.
This is something I have
looked up doing for you
in past, I know there's,
there's a company in Harvey
Bay I believe that do
it, but they don't have
an accessible vessel, so won't
allow us on board. But
I'm just wondering if there's
anybody else out there who
might know how they can
make this happen. Because that
would be so much,
You'd make this boy dream
Come true. You'd make this
poor cripple boys dream pretty
much. Okay. So which celebrity
could you see yourself be
besties with?
Oh, that's a really tough
one. Hey. Yeah.
Me, I,
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Which celebrity
would I see myself being
best, Hugh.
Yeah. And I thought you'd
Say that. Hug. Yeah, absolutely.
Like you, I just watch
him on TV and I
just feel like we're on
the same wavelengths. You know?
You Yeah. Cool. Yeah. Yes.
Tall, dark handsome, all that.
Yeah. Really tall, really dark
and really handsome. Yes. I'm
sorry. Yeah. I wasn't supposed
to laugh at that. Yes.
That's your tall dark and
handsome.
No. Yeah. Yeah. Thank you.
Thanks for the ego boost.
I appreciate that. What about
you? Well,
In, in I guess perfection
hug best friend Ryan Reynolds.
I, I,
He's awesome. He was, the
other guy was thinking
About, I think, I think
their sense of humor, his,
his sense of humor is
so on our way, like
wave length. See now I
can't speak properly.
He's another guy. I would
not want to be in
his brain. Like I would
not, I would, I would
not wanna spend a day
in his brain. Like, can
you imagine like the
Messed up shit that
Goes on Ryan Reynolds and
Anthony Hopkins, like Yeah, yeah.
Just fucked up like
Anthony Hopkins. Well, I think
I'd prefer him to actual
Hannibal. That would be slightly,
Yeah, it was, Have you
seen, have you seen the
World's Fastest Indian with Anthony
Hopkins? Yeah.
See it, it just doesn't
ring true. Does it? It
It's
Just, yeah, after seeing Hannibal,
you just can't,
I've seen all, all the
Hannibal movies and Anthony Hopkins
to me will always be
Hannibal. You cannot show me
that he can be a
play a good guy. It
just doesn't work.
Okay. So here's the thing
that I'm noticing, cuz you
know, I like to talk
about these things. The difference
between a PO and Aussie.
You guys say Anthony, whereas
in, you know, in England
we say Ant-tony,
There's a th there, isn't
it? Yeah,
There is. Yeah. We say
Anthony. Anthony.
Okay.
So it's Anthony.
Maybe you should ask him.
Yeah, maybe. Yeah.
Anyway, sorry.
And I progress he in,
in that movie too. He
plays a Kiwi and I
don't know, I've, I've got
quite a few Kiwi friends
that are,
That don't sign anything like
That, that sound, nothing like
that. So yeah.
You do a good Kiwi
accent? No.
Oh no, I don't.
Terrible.
No, I don't.
Oh, Nick. Okay. Right. All
right. Alright, so next question.
What's one thing you would
do if fear wasn't a
Factor? Jumping out of a
plane. Yeah. Okay. I'd skydive
a hundred percent. And you
know, I'm, I'm, I'd probably
warm to it, in which
case if I end up
doing it, I'll after things,
something else. Yes. But you
at this point, I'm, I,
I would love to do
it. I just can't bring
myself to it.
Just force yourself, dude.
Just,
This is something I live
by. And you know this,
that if you're scared of
something, you make yourself Yeah.
Make yourself do it anyway.
The best things come when
you overcome fears.
Indoor skydiving. Hello? I fly
on the Gold Coast. You
guys rock. Thank you.
Not plugging anyone in particular.
Not as an ambassador are
you.
But the best fun you
can have. Like, it is
awesome. And I'm, you know,
I'm sure they'll probably tell
me, jumping me outta planes
more fun. But man, that's
some serious fun. It is.
Hey, we were there yesterday.
Yeah. We were.
No,
Two days ago. Monday. Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah. So much fun. So
much fun. So much fun.
So
What about
You? For me? Well,
What would you do?
That's the thing. I, I'm,
I'm, You don't get scared.
I do, I do get,
I was petrified this morning
coming in to do this.
You were terrified of this.
I
Was terrified. Terrified. But I,
it's, I'm, I'm a person
that needs structure. It needs
and needs to know exactly
what I'm doing. I, I'm,
I'm very much like that
and I felt with this
like I was going to
completely mess up. But, you
know, it is what it
is. But I'm very, like
I said before, I'm very,
very much a person that
believes that if you're petrified
of something, you go out
and do it anyway. Yeah.
Just, just make yourself do
it because you know, the
greatest things in life happen
because of the challenges we
go through. So if you
figure out a way of
overcoming your fears, you can
guarantee that the snowball effect
that comes from that will
lead to great things. And
I have a true belief
with this podcast that it's
going to lead to great
things for us.
Absolutely.
So are you looking at
that? Because we have a
question? Question. I'm
Looking Yeah. Find some, find
some comments. But
Are there any No. Can't
see. Come on people. Yeah,
I feel like I saw
something come up on my
watch, but then I can't
See. Yeah. Okay. Well, nothing.
Sure enough, if
We don't get, we will
come back and answer you.
I promise.
Okay. Last question.
What's the best piece of
advice you've ever been given?
Do it. Just say yes.
Yep. Just say yes. And
Don't I say that? I'm
pretty sure I
Say that. Lots of people
say that, but you can
claim it if you
Like. Oh, can I? Yeah.
You can claim it, but
it, it's true. It all
the best things in life
happen when you are willing
to just say yes to
things. Just make yourself do
it. So a
Hundred percent. Yeah.
Yeah, Yeah. What about
You? Something, What does my
dad say all the time?
Forgiveness. Not
Permission. Forgiveness not permission. And
over my 40 years of
existence, I have used that
on numerous occasions. Sometimes it
gets me in trouble. I'm
not gonna lie. But yeah.
I've found that little piece
of advice from my dad
has, has kept me in
good stead. Yes.
You you use that one
a lot.
Yeah, I do it generally
well. I try and use
it to get me outta
trouble. More times than not
it actually gets, gets me
in more trouble.
That's not hard for you.
Anyway, that, that's, that's all
of our questions.
How cool's that? Yeah, no.
Yeah. And if you've got
any more that you want
to know about us and
you know, we'll, we'll talk
about more about us and
you know, in future s
and all that sort of
stuff.
EPIs trying to be down
with the kids. Yeah.
Yeah. That's what I do.
You know, future episodes, but,
you know. We'll, if you've
got any Fire Madison, and
we'll answer and Yeah. We
can talk about stuff in
our next podcast as well.
Like two cripples using a
beach tower to skydive. This
could go anywhere. Welcome to
the soapbox session. The soapbox
session.
Welcome to the
Soapbox. Welcome to the soapbox
session.
Okay. Next segment. Clearly.
Next. Yeah, absolutely. So the,
so the soapbox session is
basically us getting on our
soapboxes about stuff that annoys
us. It can be, it's,
it can be about disability,
it can be about general
things that are happening in
the news. It's can be
about things that people have
said to us. Things that
people
Said, anything, anything in anything
in general.
Really. Anything that's given us
the shit,
It's Well, and, and yeah.
And, and to be honest,
it's about us getting on
our high horses, which generally
isn't.
It's gonna be easier for
you cuz you've got legs.
I mean, they don't work.
Yeah. But then my legs
just get in the
Way. Yeah, true though. Yeah.
I feel like you've got
it easy without the legs.
How am I getting on
a horse with Well, okay,
you just, Oh, no horse
with I was thinking horse
with no name.
No,
I knew where you would
go. Horse with no name,
but horse with no Legs.
Maybe that could, could be
the sequel to the hosp.
Yeah.
Okay. Yeah, yeah,
Sure. Yeah. Some of our
listeners probably don't know that
You, you guys by now
are probably thinking Right. We're
switching off. This is absolutely
be terrible.
So soapbox session for this
week is all about political
correctness. Yes it is. And
how it's, how it's necessary,
but can be, We find
it, we find it can
be taken way too far.
Exactly. So we've had, as,
as was written in a
post by myself a few
days ago, we have had
a lot about comments about
our decision to use the
world cripple in our podcast
name.
Yep. Absolutely.
And at the end of
the day, guys, it is
entirely up to us as
people with disabilities, how we
choose to refer to ourselves,
address ourselves, or any such
thing. And if we want
to use the word cripple,
we will,
We, we will,
We will. If we want
to use, and to be
fair, you know, everything when
it comes to political correctness,
whether it's, you know, whether
it's gender, whether it's race,
whether it's disability, you know,
anything along these lines, you've
gotta think about context.
Yep.
Is, are these words, are
these these issues being dished
out in an offensive way
in order to harm or
upset someone? Yeah. In which
case it's not okay. It,
it really isn't. But if
these words and these things
are being said in order
to drum up a bit
of humor, a bit, a
little bit of lightheartedness by
people within that community that,
that that feel that it's
okay to address themselves in
whatever way they wish to,
then don't pull them up
on it. How often do
we say to people, you
know, we call ourselves disabled.
Yeah. And, and someone'll go
to us. Oh, I don't
like that word.
Oh, why the hell not?
It is what it is.
We have a disability.
You are differently able. Yeah.
You have super powers. Come
on guys. What the hell
Do I look like Clark
Kent? No, I, I kind
of wish I did.
I mean, it'd be kind
of fun if you got
Ryan with the cape on
all the
Time. Well, it would be,
you'd kind of get caught
my wheels probably though. Yeah,
true though. And I'd go
falling outta my chair, which
you would laugh at.
And I would take photos
and post it to socials.
Yeah,
Yeah, yeah. Watch out for
that later on.
But yes, in all seriousness,
guys, political,
Don't make me pull out
a hurdle. Yes. Yeah. Sorry,
had to use it. That
was a bit slow on
the
Button. That was very slow
off the mark. I have
completely forgotten where I was
going with that. Now.
Political correctness and people, it's
Gone too far.
It
Has, It's gone too far.
Guys, if somebody who is
disabled says to you that
they're happy to use the
word disabled, then that's, that's
their choice. If they're happy
to use the word spastic
cripple or any other retard
or any other, I know
I don't like that word
either, but at the end
of the day, it's entirely
up to them. Yeah. It's
not up to an able
bodied person or any other
person to dictate to them.
Otherwise, you identify however you
identify, and if you wish
to use a word in
a humorous way or otherwise,
then it's entirely up to
you. Yep. You know, political
correctness serves some purpose. It's
there to try and help
protect people. But often it
goes way too far because
a hundred percent, the, the
people that it's trying to
protect, lose lose the empowering,
you know, side of being
able to use language and
behavior and you know, anything
else in any way.
They so choose. And, you
know, we use, we use
the word cripple as, as
a form of empowerment, as
a way to take back
control of a word, which
has often been used in
such derog derogatory ways in
the past. And yeah. We,
we are taking control. So
it's entirely up to us
what we do with that.
Yeah. A hundred percent. And
you know, it's, and if
you speak to other members
of, of the community of,
of, you know, the sporting,
disabled sporting community, it's, it's
very widely used.
It, it really is. There
needs to be less, I
don't know, I dunno how
to put this without it
sounding, but less prettiness around.
Yeah. A hundred percent. People
just need to get over
themselves a little bit. Yeah.
Like, and, and, and sadly
it is quite often people
outside of our community that
are more offended by it
than we actually are. And,
and that, you know, that
really is often the case.
Yeah, yeah. It is. It's
like we're actually referring to
ourselves. It's, it's not aimed
at anybody else. It's, it's,
and
Its not, it's, it's not,
it's
Us owning our situation it
situation, but it's us owning
who we are as people.
Yeah,
Exactly. Exactly. So guys, you
know, political correctness, it's, it's
important if it's gonna stop
harm, but at the end
of the day, you are
taking away somebody's ability to
be empowered and be who
they are and who they
identify as. That's actually having
the exact opposite effect.
Yeah, absolutely. I agree. I
agree. I I, I used
to work for a large
disability organization here on the
Gold Coast, and I'm not
gonna mention names, but they
were bloody amazing organization to
work for and, you know,
and anyway, long story short,
and I had somebody I
was talking about, I think
I'd said, you know, person
with disability or something, which
is the, the accepted
Accepted vernacular.
Accepted vernacular. And I got
pulled up on it by
somebody who not worked for
the organization but you know,
was associated or something. I'm
like, so you are pulling
me up on how I'm
referring to myself. Yeah. I'm
like, yeah,
That, yeah. It's, it's, it's
gone too far. It's gotten
silly. It's who, who is
that actually helping? Who's that
Helping? Yeah, exactly. Exactly. All
right. You know what? I
think we should move on
to our next segment and
this one's gonna be a
bit of fun.
It's
Of the day, more of
the day. Should we sing
it? It's the moron of
the day.
So anyone out there that
knows the Sesame Street song,
it's the letter of the
day. This is kind of
a, an ode to that.
I get it. It's the
moron of the day. I
mean, we're not really referring
to ourselves here. We're certainly
referring to something or so
in this section.
I can be a moron
sometimes.
Most of the time.
Yeah. Most, most of, most
of
The time. I'm joking. I'm
joking. I'm just giving you
a hard time. That's what
I do. Yeah. So
What's that button again? Hang
on. Yeah. Don't make me
pull out a hurdle. Yeah,
there you
Go. Yeah. Good job. Good
job. I,
I feel like that buttons
gonna get a whole worn
in it from pressing it.
I'm gonna have to come
Subway
Sandwich.
Ah, rude.
Yep. Very rude.
Subway sandwich is making me
hungry actually.
Oh yeah, I know. Me
too. Okay. So
I digress.
Food, Food. It doesn't take,
I'm a food oriented. It
doesn't take much to look
at me and go, Here's
a food orientated kind of
guy.
Right. Moron of the day.
So
Moron of the day. Do
You wanna explain
That one? So, Moron of
the day is basically our
fortnight Lou on the fortnightly
podcast. We'll pick somebody's done
something dumb. Basically there's no
other nice way we can't
sugar coat it. It's where
somebody's done some dumb shit
and we're gonna basically talk
about it and poke some
fun and Yes. Yeah. Or,
or somebody's had a go
at us about something or
Yeah. People that we believe
are morons. A morons. Yeah.
Let's go with that.
Okay. So
This is a good, this
is, so this is your
story. I'm, this is my
story. I'm take this one.
I'm gonna tell it. So
I'll, I'll take you to
a little time and a
little place. And I know
I knew you were gonna
Do that. Then
We were in a car
park in a shopping center
near to where I'd live
and we've parked up for
the day to go and
go into the center, get
some stuff done when we
have come back in the
crosshatched spacing next to the
car, the, the spacing that
is there so that people
with disabilities are able to
exit and enter their vehicle
safely and just even do
so people in wheelchairs, you
know, and, and that use
mobility devices need to be
able to open their doors
as wide as possible so
that they can transfer into
a car. It's not like
you can stand up to
get into a vehicle. Anyway,
we've got back and we
have found that somebody has
parked their brand new Holly
Davidson and it was Brun
spanking you shiny and beautiful.
I was gonna steal it
if I couldn't, if I
could ride a bike.
Yeah, I know I was
that the legs, the lack
of legs probably would prevent
you from doing that.
I wouldn't get too
Far. Yeah. No. Was parked
right next door to my
door, you know, which, if
you are an able-bodied person,
you could probably have fit
through the space and opened
the door. Okay. But it's
a wheelchair spot. So this
idiot has parked his bike
right next door to my
car door. So I've thought
to myself, oh shit, I
don't know what the hell
I'm I'm gonna do here
if I'm through
The boot. Yes.
I've done climbed through the
boot. I've, that's, you know,
it's amazing how often we
have to do stuff like
that. So I've, I've dragged
myself through the back of
the car, climbed over the
seats. I can tell you
something guys. It's not easy
when you can't use your
legs to get through.
It's, it's easy when you
have no legs. Trust me.
Oh,
I'm so jealous. I really
think I need to get
my check
Off. I told you I
know a good surgeon, he'd
probably do a good
Deal. Bit of a twofer.
Yeah. Shout out. Shout out
to Dr. Ward Harvey on
the Gold Coast. You're a
legend.
And anyway, so I thought
to myself, do you know
what this guy needs to
realize what he's done that,
you know, it took us
an extra half an hour
to get into the vehicle
because I had to climb
through it. Yep. So I
found a piece of paper
in the car, Love this.
And I wrote a little
note on the piece of
paper, which I then attached
to the motorcycle, which said,
and I quote, I'm so,
so sorry for the damage
I've caused to your bike.
It's, I know it's all
scratched up and I've done
some real damage here. However,
I couldn't get into my
car because you parked so
close to my door. I'm
really, really sorry. Now I
hadn't gone anywhere near the
bike, like nowhere near it
at all.
There was no way the
bike was damaged
And you got him
Sweating. But I wanted to
get him sweating. I wanted
him to think twice about
doing stupid shit like that.
I really wish we'd been
fly on the wall and
waited around and
Should just sat there.
Know, it's a shame that
we leave cuz I would've
loved to have seen him
his face when he saw
that note and he was
inspecting his bike to try,
try and find all the
damage we'd done to it.
I mean, that would've been
bloody
Hilarious. We're not advocating for
damaging other people's property. That's
not what No,
But it's okay to make
them think it's damaged if
they've done shit
Like that. Yeah, absolutely.
Guys, if, if there's crosshatching
in a car park, you
regardless on what of what
that's for, it's clearly designated
as a no parking area.
It's not rocket science,
Don't park there. Simple.
Don't bother. Simple. Very, very,
very, very, very simple.
I like that one. I
like that It happens more
time than, more times than
we'd like to.
Oh, like it constantly happens.
It does. We had a
friend of ours, Darren, leave
a, a message on the
post we did last night
or this morning, quite this
morning. I think about what
he does in that, in
that situation, I think he
was saying something about letting
the tires down on their
vehicle. But then the, the
crap bit of that is
that you are unable to
get into your vehicle if
their theirs is stuck in
The way. Yeah, true that.
So you're letting down their
ties and they're kind of
probably gonna know who it
is. Yeah.
But that'd be kind of
fun
To Oh, with, I was
with a guy that did
that once. Oh really? Yeah.
Yeah. Brand beauti, brand new.
This was back when the
Holden man Naro was back
out in Australia and it
was like the new version,
say early two thousands or
so. And this guy was
parked too close to us
and you know, just not
a care in the world.
So my, my friend who
was visiting from Canada, so,
you know, zero shit's given,
Doesn't, doesn't care Cause he's
not worried about being,
You know, being followed or
being recognized. Thanks very much.
Went round and let down
all four tires on this
guy's brand spanking new red
Menaro and dropped it on
Let's Gut.
Whoops. Whoops. See so why,
why, why did he do
That? Because a similar situation.
He'd parked well over a
line.
He wasn't just some kind
of messed up human being
that thought it'd be really
funny to, for letting somebody's
car ties down just cuz
they were having a new
car and he was let's
Go on holiday to Australia
and let some people's tires
down. No,
An expensive trip.
Similar thing he'd parked way
too close and there was
about two inches between my
door and his door. Oh,
okay. Yeah. So we, we,
there was no getting into
the car, so we went
to the pub instead.
Well, it seems seems like
a, a nice compromise to
me. Yeah.
Pub pub meals. Absolutely.
No, most people think about
having a beer. No. Adam
thinks about pub meals. Yes.
Yeah, well there was, there
was beer involved too. Oh,
Okay. Well, okay. You know,
you're Aussie after all you
gotta have
A beer. This is true.
Gotta have a beer.
So onto our next segment,
The Kindness Virus.
Tash
How do you feel like
this podcast is going so
far? Are we, have we
spoken enough bullshit yet?
Let's see how many people
have tuned in and how
many comments
And how, how often, how
long they last, I
Guess. Yeah. If we, if
we've got people telling us
not to give out by
day jobs, maybe we, we'll
need to get better
At it. Okay. So the
final segment is the Kindness
Virus.
You came up with the
name
For this one. I came
up with a name I,
I have to explain here.
So originally we were talking
about calling it the Kindness
Pandemic. Yeah. But it's already
out there. Yeah. That there,
you know, the, the, the
Facebook group, there's, there's a
whole movement called the Kind
Kindness Pandemic. So we were
like, okay, well I was
like, Mm, okay, what else
can we use that's kind
of similar. Oh, I've got
it. The Kindness Virus. And
it just made me laugh.
It's ridiculous. It's so ridiculous.
But it's kind of what
we're all about. Yeah,
Yeah. Kindness in Ebola form,
You'll, you'll hear the, the
zombies and the no section
in the music that kind
of relates to this whole
thing that we're, we're a
little bit out there. So
Conness Forest,
So this is all about
giving a shout out and
a thank you to some
amazing people doing amazing things,
whether they're people we know
personally, charitable organizations, anyone that's
doing good in the world.
And you know, there's, there's
so much focus these days
on the negatives, on the,
on the bullshit. And both
Adam and I are very,
very much about the positives.
I know, I know in
this podcast so far we've,
we've spoken a lot about,
you know, things that we've
got on our high horses
about. But to be fair,
we are happy people. We
are, and we believe in
spreading love and positivity and
kindness. So we wanna give
shoutouts as our last segment
in the day to some
amazing people doing amazing things.
So we thought it was
only fitting for this very
first two cripples, one pair
of leagues podcast I got
that name. I did get
Go
Me go You five.
Yeah. Yeah.
Right.
So we thought this was
only appropriate that for this
Kindness virus segment, we gave
a shout out to the
amazing people here at Pod
Fire, Ruby, Ziggy, Brett, and,
And
The rest of the team
and the rest of the
team for helping us make
this happen. Absolutely.
Absolutely. They, they've been very,
very kind to offer us
this opportunity and, and, and
it was offered to us.
It wasn't something that we
approached them over. So we,
we feel kind of blessed
that we're getting the chance
to do this as, as
messed up as it may
be.
And it, it is messed.
Yeah, it is messed up.
Yeah, it is. But hey,
we have, that's all that
matters.
Yeah. And it's kind of
in a, in a way
too. It's, it's diverting the
blame. So if you don't
like what we're, you don't,
if you don't like it,
blame then
