Hey,
0:00
everyone. Welcome to this week's episode of Fish.
0:03
Before we get going, I just wanna let you
0:05
know that we have a very exciting guest on
0:07
this week. And he unfortunately was
0:09
away and is actually furious he was away
0:11
because he missed out on the absolute tornado
0:13
of comedy that is Re Starvey.
0:16
You probably know Reese for his roles as Murray
0:18
the manager on flight of the Concorde's or
0:21
as Nigel Billings Lee from the Jumanji
0:23
movies or perhaps you listen to his absolutely
0:26
brilliant podcast about the mysteries of
0:28
the universe called The Crypto Factor,
0:30
which he hosts with his buddies buttons
0:32
and a doofus called Dan. But what
0:34
you may not have seen if you live in the UK
0:37
is Reese playing his greatest role yet.
0:39
Steve Bonnet, Gentlemen Pirate,
0:41
In the sitcom Rflag means death.
0:44
This is such a great series. It came out last
0:46
year on HBO Max, but it's only just
0:48
come to the UK on BBC two,
0:50
and it's all about the real life story
0:53
of Steve Bonnet who decided to give
0:55
up his entire life and become
0:57
a gentleman pirate of the seas. He put
0:59
friends, black beard, who's played by
1:01
the absolute genius comedy director,
1:04
Tiger YTT, and you can watch
1:06
it now in the UK on BBC two
1:08
every Wednesday at ten PM or
1:10
If you're impatient like me, just head
1:12
straight to BBC iplayer and you can
1:14
watch the entire series in one
1:16
binge go. Anyway, it
1:18
was so great having Reese back on the show. You
1:21
can find the previous episode in the fish archives
1:23
if you wanna hear his first time here with
1:25
us. And he wasn't on that show either.
1:27
Poor guy can't get a break. But we hope you enjoy
1:29
it and then make sure to watch our flag means death
1:31
immediately afterwards. Okay? On
1:34
with the show.
1:50
Hello, and welcome to another
1:52
episode of no such thing as a fish,
1:54
a weekly podcast this week coming
1:57
to you from four miss serious locations
1:59
around the globe. My name is Dan Schreiber.
2:02
I am sitting here with James Harkin,
2:04
Anna Tashinsky, And joining us once
2:06
again, it is the return of our very special guest,
2:08
Reese Dorby. And once again, we
2:10
have gathered around the microphones with our four
2:13
favorite facts from the last seven days And
2:15
in no particular
2:15
order, here we go.
2:18
Starting with fact number one and that
2:20
is Reese. My fact
2:22
is that pirate Steed
2:24
Bonnet invented the idea
2:26
of walking the plank. Oh.
2:32
That's that's a pretty big invention,
2:35
I would say, in in the world of ironing.
2:38
I don't use it in my day to day life.
2:40
It's niche. Let's put it together
2:42
two things that already exist walking and planks.
2:44
It's not like it doesn't come up with anything new
2:46
there, has he? I know. But if you're even a
2:48
child and you dress up as a pirate. One
2:50
of the first things you learn in your entire
2:52
life is that they walk the
2:53
plank. I mean, he is he's what
2:56
a leg see. That's right. Is it true
2:58
though? Let's
3:00
put it this way. It's more of a myth, really,
3:02
that it's where he can after that.
3:05
That's fine. That's what we're dealing. It's
3:07
a damn fact, you know.
3:09
Yeah. Nice. You know the show?
3:11
You know the show.
3:12
So Well, he might have done. Right?
3:14
He might have done. Some people say that he did.
3:17
I actually believe he did
3:19
because even though it's out there
3:21
is a myth, I've been leave knowing Steed
3:23
as I do, playing the role
3:25
of Steed for two seasons now,
3:28
that he would have come up with
3:30
it in in reality because the whole
3:32
idea behind walking the plank is
3:35
they blindfold the
3:38
person, and they make them walk And
3:40
so then they get away with being
3:42
accused of murder. Because that person
3:44
has killed themselves. The
3:46
cap and has said, alright, walk along that
3:48
plank. Will you? No. I'll bet. And
3:51
and the guy's like, what hey.
3:53
What's happening? Hey. Look. Walk along here. We'll we'll
3:55
we'll, you know, you can imagine. It as I'm I'm describing
3:57
it here. Oh, I've got a blindfold
3:59
on. What what what's where's this plank going? You
4:01
know? And then Come
4:05
on. Come on. Come on. That's the shot.
4:09
Very good. Yeah. So so he wouldn't wanna stop
4:11
someone or shoot someone. No. He wants to
4:13
do it he wants to be slightly away
4:15
from the
4:15
action, right, and say you
4:17
did it yourself? Absolutely. Very
4:19
uncomfortable with the idea of of killing
4:21
someone. Why are you hitting yourself. Why are
4:23
you pushing yourself? Why are you letting
4:25
yourself get eaten by sharks?
4:27
Exactly. That's it. It's not getting you
4:30
into heaven. I was uncomfortable with killing
4:32
people. So I just let them kill themselves.
4:34
He's still he's walking a fine
4:36
line, isn't he? He's walking a fine
4:38
plank for sure. But I think yeah.
4:40
I think that's the point. That's the a moral
4:43
issue. And so he can think to
4:45
himself, oh, I didn't kill him. He killed
4:47
himself. He he walked off that plank that I design,
4:49
and it's quite a ingenious idea really
4:51
to think that issue back in those
4:53
days, you could make someone kill
4:55
themselves without you having to actually
4:57
get your hands dirty. Yeah. Which was
4:59
we should say like, seven gold age of
5:01
piracy. Seventeen eighteen, was it he
5:03
died? Yes. Mhmm. I think
5:05
So seventeen hundred seventeen to seventeen
5:07
thirty was the gold
5:08
age. He was right in the middle of it. Wasn't he
5:10
very sure lived really as a pirate?
5:12
For a pirate who is quite famous, it was
5:14
quite a brief career
5:15
was -- Two years. -- at least it
5:18
was like a year and a half. I think we should just
5:20
quickly pricey this guy in his entirety.
5:22
This was someone who was really well-to-do
5:25
character. He was living very rich. He had a
5:27
wife. He had some kids. And then
5:29
he just decided as part of ultimately
5:31
what was, I guess, a mid life crisis or he
5:33
was dealing with trauma of a quite difficult
5:35
childhood, just left his family,
5:38
bought a ship and just said, I'm now a
5:40
pirate, got a crew, named
5:42
the ship the revenge, and
5:44
just started sailing, and he paid his
5:46
staff. You know, he paid the pirates. He
5:48
was he as you say a gentleman
5:50
pirate with zero
5:51
abilities, didn't he not tell the
5:53
pirates that they were gonna be pirates? I
5:55
read somewhere that he kind of brought them
5:58
on. He got all of these guys to be his
5:59
staff. And then only when they were at
6:02
sea, he said, oh, by the way, your parents. This just
6:04
a fun cruise. This is a that sounds
6:06
like him as well. Knowing him
6:08
being in his shoes. Absolutely. Yeah. He he
6:10
definitely he bought the ship. It was
6:12
it was already called the revenge, I
6:14
believe. And he liked the name of
6:16
it. And there was actually quite
6:18
a common name for ships back then.
6:20
And then, yeah, he installed this
6:23
is the really, really fun stuff.
6:25
He he installed a library on the on
6:27
the boat. So he built a
6:29
library because he'd loved his books. He who wanted
6:31
to leave home and leave his wife
6:33
and life, but
6:35
he didn't want to leave his book something
6:38
you might
6:38
do, Dan. So he brought his entire
6:41
collection of his books and put them on the ship.
6:43
I reckon Dan, I reckon you would
6:45
go being a pirate with your bucks, of course, but
6:47
also probably your Benelton collection.
6:49
Absolutely. Well, keep you all
6:51
signed. Everything signed you've got in your house
6:53
would come with. Yeah. I would need
6:55
memorabilia to sort of, yeah,
6:57
wow black beard with, you know. Yeah.
6:59
No. Actually, Benelton did, I
7:01
think, actually hold this particular bit of tissue.
7:05
Oh,
7:06
wow. Yeah. I was actually gonna say it's
7:08
pretty was pretty hard on his wife with the
7:10
look stealing, not only as she lost her husband, but
7:12
he's nicked all the bad debts. But, actually,
7:14
in your case, Dan, it would be quite
7:16
relief from my life 461 Yeah. Be
7:18
like the ultimate Mary Kondo or whatever
7:20
that book was called. It's like, yeah, you
7:22
know, step four, make your husband a pirate.
7:26
Blizzled. Thank thank God.
7:28
Yeah. And so in in in the series as well,
7:31
there's the relationship, the fact
7:33
that he in real life meets
7:35
Blackbeard the most famous of all the pirates.
7:37
And what's crazy as well is, I
7:39
assume Blackbeard must have existed for a long time,
7:41
but he had a two year run as well. That
7:43
was it. Yeah. Blackbeard's pie
7:45
earning years. We're two years. It's amazing.
7:48
You
7:48
live pretty fast and loses a pirate, didn't you? It
7:50
probably wasn't the safest line of work to go into
7:52
for being honest. No.
7:53
No. They were
7:54
like the Liz Truss of pirates who let
7:56
those guys. That's the
7:59
most fluttering comparison Liz Truss has
8:01
ever got. Yeah,
8:03
Black beard and him had quite a weird relationship.
8:05
It's kind of the relationship to a a
8:07
needy loser. And
8:10
the the real cool guy of the open
8:12
seas because Steve wasn't that good at
8:13
pirating, especially at first. Was he? No.
8:15
So, I mean, you know, there's the reality through
8:18
the knowledge we have from various
8:20
accounts and history. And then there's the,
8:22
obviously, the the fictional version, which
8:24
my show is. So without
8:26
getting too confused which which is real and which
8:28
isn't because the real reports, you
8:30
know, are sketchy at best as
8:32
well. But when you look at it, it
8:34
kinda makes sense that, you know, something
8:36
happened between the two of them. Even
8:38
if it was just a friendship, Black beard
8:40
was fascinated by the sky
8:42
because he looked glorious in his
8:44
outfits. He has these little wicker picker
8:46
shoes and glorious
8:49
coats and and various things like that. He was
8:51
a fancy man. And Blackbeard must
8:53
have gone, what the hell are you doing in
8:55
this job? Because, you know, they're all
8:57
desperate. They didn't want to become pirates that was
8:59
like the only life they had to go into
9:01
because of of their circumstance.
9:03
And so here here's the sky. He's like,
9:05
I want to be part of this too. He's
9:08
absolutely not supposed to be there, and he was
9:10
wounded. And I think instead of just
9:12
letting, like, killing him or getting rid of him, I
9:14
think there was a massive fan destination. I
9:16
think maybe if you look at Blackbeard
9:18
wanting to see the other side of how
9:20
the other side lives. And I could
9:22
probably a lot of people did back in those days. You're
9:24
either ridiculously poor and
9:26
haven't got anything going on or you're the
9:28
aristocracy and never the
9:30
twin show they'll meet. And so when they
9:32
do, I think that's when you've got this really
9:34
interesting, like, oh, how can I
9:36
become you? How can I learn from you? How
9:38
can I feel your ideas to
9:40
make me better. So it was like
9:42
the Louis theroux of the
9:44
pirating world. He's spending
9:46
a few
9:47
weeks. Yeah. Observing. Getting
9:49
all
9:49
the Yes. Exactly. Perhaps. Because
9:51
he could've just killed him. He could've just gone ahead of him.
9:53
I mean, this guy back in history was not he
9:56
he's trade as capable as I
9:58
am in the
9:58
show, you know. And
9:59
that's saying something. But
10:02
I reckon this is really interesting way of
10:04
doing history. Right? Because we don't have much
10:06
information about Steve Bonnet. We have little bits here
10:08
and there, but Reese, you've lived as
10:10
him for two years. In the show
10:12
pretty much. And I reckon you've got really
10:14
good insight into what he might have
10:16
been thinking and what he might have done and
10:18
stuff. Yeah. Why the hell he
10:19
did it? That's the always the great mystery,
10:21
isn't it? It's always portrayed as this
10:23
huge mid life crisis. Which makes
10:25
sense is the fantasy that every eight year
10:27
old has that we grew out of by the time the
10:29
twelfth. Midlife. Is that eight years
10:31
old? I feel like when you have a midlife
10:33
crisis, you revert back to those
10:35
tragic fantasies you had as a child
10:37
that are
10:37
unrealistic. And it was portrayed in
10:40
--
10:40
Yeah. -- you know, that the famous book of pirates, which
10:42
is where we get basically all of our pirates acknowledged
10:44
by a mysterious person
10:47
called captain Charles Johnson who was
10:49
written a few years later, and
10:51
his portrayal, which is often what
10:53
is repeated is that he was
10:55
trying to bear the awful
10:57
situation of having a nagging wife.
10:59
But yeah, Reese, you've been him. Why
11:01
did he do it? I really I really hope
11:03
that you James and Anna are subtly
11:05
trying to get Reese to sort of channel
11:07
Steve
11:07
Yeah. And he comes through now. So I
11:09
love this. He says no longer here. I mean,
11:11
I'm just dandy. Steve is just
11:14
ambitious. Look, I I definitely think there
11:15
was a a mid life crisis situation
11:17
going on if you look back at the accounts.
11:19
But also, he had
11:21
this life that
11:23
he didn't necessarily
11:25
want. He was born into aristocracy.
11:28
And at that at that time, piracy
11:30
would had just kicked in and it was
11:32
this ridiculous, adventurous, out at
11:34
sea life. That was pretty much the
11:36
opposite of what he's doing. And he's never even
11:38
been to see, by the way, this guy.
11:40
So he's imagining, wow,
11:42
what would that be like? And of course, anyone who's really
11:45
intensely into their book reading has a great
11:47
imagination. And I think he just, one
11:49
day, went, look, I've actually got the beans to
11:51
change this. And he probably had one massive fight
11:53
with the the wife that he obviously he wasn't
11:55
really getting on with and went, right, that's it. I'm out.
11:57
I'm out. And in the middle of the night, you
11:59
know, he he sorted this out just took
12:01
off on a whim. And I think
12:03
that, you know, he probably thought
12:06
that he had the means to to get
12:08
away with it because he was a chiefly
12:10
person. He was someone who was --
12:11
Mhmm. -- sort of high high up there.
12:14
And so He he probably
12:16
didn't even imagine he was gonna get into
12:18
trouble. It certainly seemed like he didn't.
12:19
It's confidence. Blind
12:21
confidence. Yeah. I once walked to playing Go
12:23
in a virtual reality video game.
12:25
Okay. Right. And this is why I
12:27
was thinking about how these guys
12:29
were blindfolded. weren't blindfolded
12:31
when we did this, but you're walking the bank on
12:33
the top of a massive building. And then
12:35
the idea is you got to the end and then you
12:37
jumped off and then you were in
12:39
virtual reality and you thought you were dying,
12:42
and then you kept falling, falling, falling,
12:44
and then you hit the floor and you absolutely
12:46
shit yourself because you thought you were dead
12:47
actually, you're in virtual reality. But
12:50
what I thought was it was more scary because I could
12:53
see what was happening whereas these guys were
12:55
blindfolded. Yes. So is the
12:57
idea that they wouldn't know when they're getting to the end of
12:59
the
12:59
plank? They'll just keep walking and that's it?
13:01
Or Yes. Well, let's let's Let's
13:03
have a a chat about that. I mean, I think
13:06
why do they need to be blindfolded
13:08
for a start? Because, you
13:10
know, they know they're out at sea, they're on boat.
13:12
Alright. Step up. Step up onto the edge
13:14
here. Oh, this is what I can feel that this is the
13:16
edge of the boat. No. No. That's not. No. You're
13:18
going you're going into one of the rooms. We're gonna
13:20
have a little party. No. No. I can be able to win
13:23
in my face here. No. No. No. It's fine.
13:25
Walk. Just keep walking. Just there's a there's
13:27
a blank there. Alright.
13:29
Yes. Yes. Oh, well, this is going out into the sea,
13:31
isn't it? No. No. No. This is a little it's
13:33
actually a bridge towards the car.
13:36
I've got a cocktail here waiting for you,
13:38
Mary. Okay. Okay.
13:40
It was very windy. Yes. Well, that we're all
13:42
brown. Thing. No.
13:46
Oh, that does that still feels like
13:48
normal wind. Not you. Or
13:50
your winds like
13:51
Larry. Cheeky bun. Just keep
13:53
walking down there,
13:54
mate. And
13:56
I know I've I've really got into that. But, you
13:58
know, I think I've forgotten
14:00
what we were asking. But I actually
14:02
think that's true because it means you couldn't have
14:04
like surprise parties on a
14:05
boat. Could you? Because every time you put a
14:08
blindfold
14:08
on, You're
14:09
walked into a roof. I can terrify it. Say
14:11
it's a party. Yeah. I
14:13
think that's a good point we've got to. In
14:15
history, there's been no surprise parties on
14:17
pirate ships for that reason.
14:19
Happy birthday. Ashley
14:25
doesn't make any sense that they
14:28
would be able to walk a plank while out
14:30
in the rough seas, blindfolded
14:33
and shaking with nerves. I mean, you fall off.
14:35
You don't get to the end of that plank. Do you?
14:37
No. It's such a good plank. You're falling off straight
14:39
away. Also,
14:40
is this where we got the diving board from?
14:42
Yeah. Yes. I was just thinking. Imagine
14:45
the cockiness of someone that you've sentenced
14:47
to death who walks blind footage at the end of the
14:49
blind chunks often does triple. That
14:51
could sound so amazing. There's
14:54
some That's what a
14:56
death. What a death? Yeah.
15:03
Stop the podcast. Stop the
15:06
podcast.
15:07
Hi, Just wanted to inform you that this
15:09
week was sponsored by Emma.
15:11
Indeed, Emma are an
15:13
amazing mattress company so
15:15
many great things about them. One of them is that
15:17
they give you up to two hundred nights
15:19
trial sleep. And what that
15:21
means is after a hundred ninety
15:23
nine and a half nights. If you've
15:25
decided this mattress is not for
15:27
me, you could just return it. That's
15:29
right. If you are indeed the princess
15:31
from the princess and the p, you are
15:33
absolutely free to do that.
15:35
I'd be surprised if you did because
15:37
probably the most comfortable night sleep you'll ever
15:40
get. I recently swapped my own mattress
15:42
out for an Emma mattress that was in our
15:44

16:30
Okay. On with the podcast all.
16:32
On with the show.
16:38
Okay. It is time for fact number
16:41
two and that is
16:43
James. Okay. My fact this week
16:45
is that go like it when you
16:47
smile at
16:47
them, but only if you approach them from
16:49
the right hand side. How
16:51
can that possibly be true? Why
16:53
it was the findings of
16:55
a study in twenty eighteen at
16:57
the buttercup Century for goats
16:59
in Kent. Mhmm. And what they
17:01
did was they put photos of
17:04
humans, men and women,
17:06
black and white, and they put one on the left, and
17:08
one on the right, and one of them was smiling, and
17:10
one of them was and the
17:12
goats always went to the smiling one, but only
17:14
when it was on the right hand side. When it was
17:17
on the left hand side, they couldn't give a
17:19
shit. They were just they would randomly go to
17:21
one or the other. But when it was on the right
17:23
hand side, they always went to it.
17:25
And two things here. One, not many
17:27
animals care whether humans are
17:29
smile wing or nut. We know that dogs do.
17:31
We know that horses do. That's because
17:33
they're domesticated animals, and this
17:35
is one of the first other animals.
17:38
That we found that actually cares if humans smile.
17:40
And the other thing is that
17:42
perhaps why are they only
17:45
bothered about right hand side, well, it could be the way that the brain
17:47
processes things, so maybe they're
17:49
processing. Emotions on
17:51
one side of the brain or visual things on
17:53
one side of the
17:53
brain. We're not really sure. Why do they use black and
17:56
white photo? Can you not fork out in the
17:58
budget for a color for silver?
18:00
Do they see color? Did they see color? Did they see
18:02
color? That's a great question. That's a
18:04
great question. Go on reset. You you're
18:06
from you know you know, goats almost as well
18:08
as, you know, Steve Bonnet. Do you think they see color. I
18:10
would like to think they do,
18:13
especially my ones. When I when I turn up
18:15
to feed them -- Mhmm. -- I always come in
18:17
from the left and they're
18:19
smiling. I'm smiling.
18:22
But I think you
18:26
always make sure it's a That's part of it.
18:30
I was
18:30
just imagining that I must be smiling because
18:32
I'm happy to see that. I don't see
18:35
them or a hell of a lot because they're in New Zealand, but I spend
18:37
time with them when I'm
18:38
there, of course. They are they are
18:40
emotionally intelligent. I haven't realized
18:43
that they were to
18:45
this extent, so they did a
18:47
study where researchers recorded
18:50
goats making certain noises,
18:52
noises when they were happy, and noises when were
18:54
sad. So this did involve the researchers
18:56
making the goats happy and sad. So
18:58
they'd make them happy by sort of giving them
19:00
food. And then they'd make them sad, but and this is of
19:02
like really minimal level of
19:04
sadness. They'd isolate them from their herd
19:06
for five minutes, or they'd
19:09
get a goat to watch another goat eat when that
19:11
goat didn't have much
19:11
food. Oh, wow. Apparently
19:13
this But I know goats and that
19:16
there's very sad for them. That's
19:17
that's tragic. Two things they really care about
19:19
are being together -- Mhmm. -- and eating.
19:21
Oh, really? That's it. Oh,
19:23
yeah. That's and and to have fun, they
19:26
climb. So they love to get on top of things --
19:28
Mhmm. -- and they love running
19:29
around, but they always much prefer
19:32
to be doing all that sort of stuff to see it.
19:34
Okay.
19:34
Well, maybe this is like torture for them
19:36
perhaps. We're also also Anna, I've been
19:38
in the restaurant with you when one
19:40
of us is got our food. yours hasn't quite
19:43
arrived
19:43
yet. And the luck on your face. I make
19:45
some pretty weird noises. I can't deny
19:47
that. Okay. I'm makes weird goat like
19:50
bleeding sounds. Anyway,
19:52
the noises that goats make are pretty
19:54
much indistinguishable to When they're
19:56
happy and sad in those situations, except probably Reese
19:58
for your own goats, you pick up on it. But
20:00
if you play those sounds to
20:03
their fellow goes just audio recordings, their heart
20:05
rates will stay normal and they'll be all
20:07
chilled out when they hear the happy sounds. But when
20:09
they hear the almost identical sounding
20:11
anxious sounds, then their heart rates
20:13
kind of shoot up. So they're feeling this
20:15
empathy on behalf of this other goat.
20:17
Yeah. Reese, have you ever this
20:19
is a leaning into a myth here, but I'll just
20:21
be curious. Have you ever dipped
20:24
your feet into salt water and then
20:26
let goats lick your
20:27
feet? No. No?
20:30
Okay. I've I've been there, but I have taken the
20:32
goats for a walk down on That's the thing. I know you've
20:34
got a beach there. You've
20:35
been through salt lake. Yeah. Okay. Next
20:37
time you're back in New Zealand, give it a go because I'd be curious
20:39
to hear whether or not this hurts. This
20:41
was a a sort of myth that's been
20:43
in books for a long time. And possibly it
20:45
was tried once or twice, who knows, where the
20:48
ancient Romans were said to have used a thing called
20:50
tickle torture. And the idea
20:52
was that you would get someone soak
20:54
their feet in salt water and then the salt
20:56
would then be licked
20:58
by a thirsty ghost. Ghost
21:09
love something.
21:14
Oh, no. I just check my notes down and all
21:16
this is at about ghosts.
21:18
All this stuff I've been saying about ghosts.
21:21
It's ghosts like if
21:23
you smash them. Always approach a ghost from
21:25
the right hand side. Yeah.
21:27
Now it's making sense.
21:29
No. So apparently, that's if you're if
21:31
a goat licks your feet because they have really
21:34
rough tongues that the torture and because they're
21:36
so thirsty and the salt makes them
21:37
thirstier, they keep licking and then they
21:40
rip your feet off and that would
21:42
be a that would be a method of torture back in ripped
21:44
your face off. Their tongues aren't made of
21:46
teeth. No. Sorry. They would they would they would
21:48
slowly like like a lollipop
21:50
lick their way through your
21:51
feet. Yeah. Yeah. I
21:52
tend to not let their mouths
21:55
too close to my
21:57
body bed. Okay.
21:58
Because they have teeth and everything, you
22:00
know. And and they very they're
22:03
always wanting to to nibble.
22:05
And so they nibble on my
22:06
clothes, they pull my garments,
22:08
and I certainly can't see
22:11
myself getting my naked feet out and
22:14
dangling them in front of their faces
22:17
with with salt Do they then another
22:19
question about your guys? Did I mean, do they urinate
22:21
on themselves and each and each other or
22:23
themselves? So first of all, they'll they'll wheel
22:25
over themselves to attract female,
22:27
and it looks kinda cool, BillyGoods shove
22:29
their heads right between their legs because they wanted
22:31
we and their biz, because I guess that gathers
22:34
up the the smell better
22:36
and they wheel over them and
22:38
then they will
22:41
go the lady who can tell that
22:43
he's up for up for a shag, but
22:45
then he tests her urine as well
22:47
to make sure that she's eligible, to make
22:49
sure that she's actually on heat. And
22:51
so she will squat
22:53
down and he'll put his head between her
22:55
legs and then she'll wheel
22:57
over him. And then do curl
22:59
up, the lips, the flame, and the response,
23:01
which is where if you see a go, expose
23:04
its lip, like, curl up its top lip.
23:06
It's got all these receptors in
23:08
it. James is doing it right now. It's very attractive look actually.
23:11
It's got receptors in it
23:13
that pick up whether the urine has the right
23:15
hormones in it. That says, this woman is to
23:17
be fertilized by you. And
23:19
so it's very very rebased
23:22
courting
23:22
process. It's a actually
23:25
stuff.
23:25
I know nothing of that because I only have
23:27
boy goats.
23:28
Oh, really? Yeah. Well,
23:30
when you have both, you know,
23:32
you're you're intermating. And if you've got females,
23:35
then you're then then you're into milking.
23:37
So I've only gotten male
23:39
cast offs, which, you know, the boy goats
23:41
are are only good for either meat
23:44
or pits. Yeah. Wow. So they never
23:46
aroused your goats. They never need to love themselves.
23:48
They never around and I've never seen wee. Oh,
23:51
they must.
23:51
They must. Oh, never never seen them
23:54
wee that might mind you, you know,
23:56
minor pedigree. So I don't know if they
23:58
do. Yeah. Good
23:59
call. To be honest. I've heard
24:01
that about certain breeds. They just explode with
24:03
urine at their death. Don't know. So I'm with
24:05
you. Well, so times I see them hiding. And I
24:07
and I'm and I come to the pin and I think, oh,
24:09
what's oh, oh, you ever know where are you?
24:12
And then I can hear it. Don't
24:14
I don't come in here. I'm in here.
24:16
And that kind of thing. And so I
24:18
wonder, there's probably something happening there and then
24:20
they just come through, oh, hello, hello,
24:22
dad. What what's going on today? Dad. Do they call you
24:24
dad? Yeah. They call dad.
24:27
Dad. I didn't see you coming
24:29
dad. You I come came on the
24:31
left hand side. Yeah. Yeah. Sorry. I was
24:33
I was just gonna go check on you
24:35
guys. Do you want to go for another walk down to the
24:37
beach? Oh, no. That's that's fine. Alexander's
24:39
behind the pin there. Don't gun going around there. He's just doing
24:41
something. Don't worry about him. I do. Are you
24:43
sure you've got goats, not sort of pantomim
24:45
act as you go? Here's
24:50
here's an interesting thing about goats. So
24:52
you said like pedigree goats. You can't
24:54
get them. You can't get
24:56
really good goats especially for milking and
24:58
stuff. And in order to get those,
25:00
you might need a stud. So you might need a
25:02
really good male goat who's
25:04
gonna have sex with lots of females. But
25:06
the thing is that they can only have so many.
25:08
They can only have sex so many types.
25:10
Right? There's only so many hours
25:12
the date that you can do that. And so
25:15
recently, they've come up with a new
25:17
way of basically what they
25:19
do is they put some
25:21
genes into a goat
25:23
which changes its testicles so they're
25:25
effectively the testicles of another
25:28
goat. And so this goat which isn't
25:30
the can have sex with a
25:32
female and the the
25:34
offspring will be the offspring of
25:36
the original stud, even though the studs just
25:39
at home
25:39
Oh my god. You know, really, really. That's like
25:41
the handmaid's tale kind of
25:43
where you think you're shagging one
25:45
person, but you're actually more first
25:47
little person. It's like it's
25:49
actually a less dark version of the handmaid's tale
25:51
-- Yeah. -- without the feminist and
25:54
dystopian
25:54
undertone. The milk molds
25:55
tail. Exactly. I wonder
25:58
if that's quite
26:01
demoralizing, though, for the goat who the person
26:03
said your testy aren't good
26:04
enough. We're just gonna shove these other blokes on you who you've
26:07
always been intimidated by
26:08
anyway. I don't think they even know their
26:11
goats. It probably just goes.
26:13
Of
26:13
course, they knows he counts.
26:15
Do they? Yeah. Okay. Very good.
26:17
Because I've tried to take them out, you know, we've
26:19
gone into town and my guys have gone,
26:21
no. No. We we can't We're
26:24
ghosts. We can't go there.
26:25
We're not gonna we won't be
26:27
allowed
26:27
to their dad. Well,
26:30
look, can I can I can you take the blindfold up?
26:32
Me? No. Just just you'd be you'll
26:34
be fine, Alexander. We're just we're going
26:36
into town. III can send to
26:38
someone coming up. To me on the left hand side.
26:40
I can see something. He's
26:43
asking me for ID, Dad. What do I
26:45
do? Dad, don't
26:47
have new ID? I'm a ghost. I
26:49
told him I was I'm a ghost. I'm sorry.
26:51
He doesn't know he's a ghost. He could just listen.
26:53
I do know. I told
26:55
you and get the spy phone off me.
26:58
I saw a photo
27:01
earlier today of it was a
27:03
tree which looked like it was
27:05
growing goats. There was, like, an
27:07
apple tree. Yeah. There was, like, thirty
27:09
yards. They loved plants. They were just sitting
27:11
in this
27:11
tree, and I didn't think they had the dexterity
27:13
to do
27:14
it. Avenue. Yeah. That's the big one. Yeah.
27:17
They do like climbing trees and they like
27:19
climbing. But often if you see those
27:21
photos, some places will
27:23
fake it just fake
27:25
it for taurus, basically. They'll
27:27
kind of tie their goats into
27:30
trees and then say, look, all these goats have clagged
27:32
this tree and they're all free will. Because
27:34
at the end of the day, they need the Taurus to come
27:36
and take the photos, but the goats aren't gonna do
27:38
what they
27:39
want. Sometimes they'll climb and sometimes they will. So
27:41
they yeah. They kind of fake it sometimes.
27:43
Oh, that's that's the shocking reality
27:46
of of tourism in some of these
27:48
places, but right, so the other
27:50
thing is there's a theory that goats used to be
27:52
birds. And that's
27:54
sorry. That's why they're in the trees a lot because they are
27:56
reverting back to their previous
27:57
life. Is that a and
28:00
the scientific papers written supporting
28:03
this theory or is this just subblock in
28:05
your local
28:05
pub? No. I'm just I'm pulling it up now.
28:07
Okay. Here it is. The scientific theories.
28:11
Yeah. Yeah. Goats, yeah, goats used to be birds. Here it
28:13
is. Dogs goats
28:15
used to be birds. Here
28:17
it is. Involved. Absolutely. Incredibles.
28:20
Wow. That's a two pages, and it's signed at
28:22
the bottom. Two pages. That's
28:26
as your evidence.
28:29
They believe they're flying. That's the closest thing they can get to
28:31
going back to their old life as a bird by
28:33
flying, and then they'll end up in the trees. And
28:35
you'll you'll often hear them Twerking.
28:41
Twerking. No twerking. You should see him twerking.
28:43
Twerking is amazing. What's
28:44
the actual word that
28:46
birds make. Tweet. Tweeting. Tweeting. Oh,
28:49
tweeting.
28:49
I think
28:50
traffic that's why I'm getting confused. You matched
28:53
up you. Yeah. I may I
28:55
matched those two together
28:55
and and
28:56
coming up with twerking. Yeah.
28:58
I think
28:58
that's how twerking was born actually. It was
29:01
very
29:01
hard gated. Yeah. Yeah.
29:04
Well, that's that's absolutely amazing.
29:07
Thank you for sharing that fact.
29:09
Another another goat fact -- Yeah.
29:11
-- which is is an amazing is
29:13
that, but is true, is
29:15
that we've never talked about myotonic
29:16
goats. And I think they always deserve a
29:19
mention. The myotonic fainting goats.
29:20
Oh. So Oh, it's sparkest,
29:23
they're they're a breed in Tennessee
29:26
that basically have an
29:28
anomaly in their genes where when they
29:30
panic. If they're approached from the left
29:32
for instance or not smiling or
29:34
there's a loud noise, something like that,
29:36
then they try to escape keep. But what
29:38
this does is contract their muscles so that
29:40
they stiffen up completely and then
29:42
just kind of fall over onto their
29:44
side. And it is quite comical to see if
29:47
seen it. It's bizarre.
29:48
I've seen videos of that. Yeah. It's very
29:50
Do we know why it happens, Anna? Because it
29:52
feels like it would die out quite
29:54
quickly. Well, I think it was only dyed in as
29:56
it were quite recently through
29:58
breeding, so I don't think it would have
30:01
any evolution a very
30:02
purpose. And you're right the wild. They probably wouldn't survive very
30:05
long, but they are now bread
30:07
from the same batch that have this I
30:09
think Steve Bonnet suffered from
30:12
same gene anomaly. Just
30:14
sort of stiffening up and
30:16
fainting in the at the side of any sort of Oh,
30:18
yeah.
30:18
Yeah. Nice. And he over came
30:20
at? Did he? Well, I haven't
30:21
seen it. Well, you know, just really sort
30:24
of, you know, getting with a
30:26
really tough pirate and learning
30:28
how to proper be a pirate. And
30:30
I think goats, if you you put those little fainty
30:32
ones in with, you know, some
30:34
real hardcore proper rustic
30:37
goats. That probably learned
30:39
the ways and and would become more
30:41
goatee -- Yeah. -- at least
30:42
fainty. Really good black beard takes them under their
30:44
win. Yeah. That's right. What you can also do
30:47
is you can deprive them of
30:48
water, which bizarrely cures
30:50
this problem. There are
30:51
other problems if you don't get the water around that. So
30:53
it's it's a very fine balance to strike. But
30:55
they've they're kind of useful now because
30:57
my Antonio is also a thing in humans like
31:00
sudden muscle
31:00
seizures. Some people have that. And
31:03
the
31:03
jumping French a churchman of Maine. Are are they called or something
31:06
like that? I remember
31:07
Really? I didn't know. It's I don't know about them.
31:09
Are they Yeah. I know. I thought there was a
31:11
there was a group of French
31:13
grants in Maine, I think. Mhmm. And they had
31:16
this kind of thing where as soon as
31:18
you shot them, they were just famous. Oh,
31:20
really? Wow. Wow. Yeah. How
31:22
long are they stiff for? How long do they
31:24
like, does it just slowly wear off?
31:26
Yeah. I think so. It's the the girls. Yeah. They just
31:28
kind of
31:28
wake up, don't they the
31:29
girls? It's like a fake thing. Yeah. Yeah.
31:31
Seen the This is bizarre. We haven't
31:33
seen the videos.
31:34
It's bizarre. I imagine if you see people did
31:36
do that in general. It's a very bizarre
31:39
trait, isn't
31:40
it? Yeah. It would make the start of
31:42
the hundred meters not much good with it. Mhmm.
31:44
As soon as the bang goes up, everyone
31:46
just stays. It would be a race to see
31:48
who came around the quicker Yeah. That's my
31:50
big The Golden Olympics have never taken off.
31:53
Yep. We call yeah. We call the best in the
31:55
world, the goats. What's going
31:57
on? Yeah. Okay.
32:00
It
32:02
is time for fact number three
32:05
and that is Anna. My
32:07
fact this week is that Tintin's
32:09
hair originally lay flat on his
32:11
head until it got blown upwards
32:13
in an early comic strip and
32:15
it never came back down.
32:18
Wow. That's why
32:21
he's got that famous Steven
32:23
Quiff. I think it's cheap.
32:25
It's, like, on how days.
32:27
Yeah. What are you talking about the size of You're
32:29
trying to achieve it. Actually,
32:32
Reese is sporting at sort of half in
32:34
Tony and Quiff at the moment. So
32:36
I should be careful. Yeah. But,
32:39
yeah, it's it doesn't it was not mentioned
32:41
anywhere in the comic. It's just the very
32:43
first hinting comic that was released. This is in
32:45
January nineteen twenty nine,
32:47
and it Atantar or
32:49
Peder Soviet in
32:51
the land of the Soviets. And
32:54
about sort of ten pages in, in the
32:56
version I was reading, he out
32:58
of a tree, not actually a goat
33:00
and falls into a
33:02
convertible car sitting underneath it
33:04
deliberately. Drives the car away. And
33:06
in the next plate, you see his
33:08
hair pushed up, and then you follow the story
33:10
through it. It just never drops
33:12
again. So weird. Did they did they do it on purpose?
33:14
Was this a subconscious
33:15
thing? We'll never know. We'll never Well,
33:18
I actually have the book here,
33:21
of course, because -- Oh, wow. -- you
33:23
do. Big tension fan.
33:25
Oh. And and I looked at this.
33:27
And yeah, you're right. We can we can
33:29
have a look here. I think
33:32
it's, as you say, around
33:35
Page ten,
33:39
yes, This is Yeah. Yeah.
33:41
This
33:41
is an audio format. Yeah.
33:43
But
33:43
you've you've all got imaginations at home. We want
33:45
you to imagine Tinton climbing up
33:48
a tree. It's coming up the
33:49
tree. See his -- Yeah. -- his cliff here
33:51
is forward. Uh-huh. Yep. Okay.
33:54
He climbs up the tree and
33:56
then there he is, for those at
33:58
home that are listening to this, you
34:00
guys can hear him hear
34:03
jumping. Now, he's in the
34:05
car car, and it's flipped to the back, and it's
34:07
because of the wind of the car. And you can all hear
34:09
that in that panel there. Yeah.
34:12
That's that's that's pretty
34:14
amazing. That happens midway
34:16
through a comic. It's not like the start of
34:18
a new comic. It's like it's like Herge, the
34:20
the creator of the Illustrator of Tinto,
34:22
did that in one panel and that looks
34:24
good. I think that's one. Wow. I just like that. Yeah. Yeah. Please.
34:26
And do you know what's amazing about what you
34:29
just showed us? There's a little
34:31
something in that comic which
34:33
is what absolutely exploded Tinton
34:36
into the masses of Europe.
34:38
And it and it was a very specific
34:40
thing that you might not noticed
34:43
as we were all just looking at these
34:43
cartoons. Well, you notice at home anyone
34:45
who wrote it in these spot at
34:47
the moment? That's I mean,
34:49
the the four of
34:51
us is what talking about. And what it was is
34:53
that this is nineteen twenty nine. This is the same year
34:56
that Popeye was invented by the
34:58
way. And so this
35:00
is an you know, it's years
35:02
before Superman and Batman. This is really
35:04
old school comic books.
35:06
What they have in these drawings are
35:08
speech bubbles.
35:10
And Europe did not have speech bubbles at this point
35:12
in their comics. They were over in America,
35:14
but they were a completely
35:18
to certainly Belgium and, let's say,
35:20
surrounding countries. I don't know about the UK
35:22
specifically. Luxembourg. Possibly
35:25
Luxembourg. And and
35:27
the Netherlands Netherlands. Yeah. Let's go
35:29
there. Yeah. And I read a great
35:31
biography or rather I read a few pages
35:33
from a great biography by
35:36
Harry Thompson. About Tinton
35:38
saying that basically his words in
35:40
these speech bubbles were treated as if they were
35:42
carved on tablets of stone. They became quotes
35:44
and they became something you would
35:46
remember as a result of these speech
35:48
bubbles, and that is why tintin
35:50
exploded. So sorry. Oh, always
35:53
claiming. I would say at the moment for
35:55
me, the invention of the speech bubble is up with
35:57
the invention of the concept of walking
35:59
a
35:59
plank. I don't know if it's getting kind of
36:02
You didn't invent it.
36:03
Einstein. But exactly, didn't even invent it. And
36:05
it's not it didn't independently appear. Did it?
36:07
It wasn't like, oh wow. How weird they've
36:09
got these in America. Presumably, they just read
36:11
a comic in America and thought, well, let's
36:13
start doing that. Is that Right? No. But do
36:15
you remember when Ok Go did their first
36:18
video on treadmills? And you
36:20
barely even heard the
36:20
music. You were so busy watching this
36:23
innovative video. Yes. That what it
36:25
was. I couldn't tell you when the song is. Exactly.
36:27
Go ahead. The treadmill
36:27
song. The treadmill song. Exactly. Well, they're
36:30
relatable for
36:32
future generations. Paracy.
36:34
Well,
36:35
you know in, like, three hundred years
36:37
everyone will be talking about, you know how we
36:39
all do those tread build ounces now.
36:41
Yeah. You know how everyone
36:43
does them. Well, guess who did
36:45
the first? Yeah. Exactly.
36:48
Yeah. That book by the way, the Tinton
36:50
and the Soviet it's country, so
36:52
whatever it is. I have that as
36:54
well. But if you go to the Tinton shop
36:56
in London, they'll only sell it to you under the
36:58
counter. Oh, no.
37:00
Yeah. So I went to it was
37:02
my ten anniversary, and I thought
37:04
I'd buy my wife some ten ten stuff.
37:06
And she's Russian. So where I thought I'd
37:09
buy the Soviet Tintin book and I went and it wasn't
37:11
anywhere and I didn't really know enough
37:13
about Tintin that I knew it existed but I
37:15
assumed that it was maybe
37:18
really rare and I said, oh, do you have this book? And they went, yeah,
37:20
well, we keep it under here now. And
37:22
since the Russian invasion of Ukraine, they
37:24
don't put it doesn't display
37:26
anymore in
37:27
weird. Shoppey. Wow. Isn't
37:29
that amazing? It's so weird. That's encouraging. So you felt
37:31
like you were buying comic book porn.
37:34
It's
37:35
quite exciting. They gave me like an unmarked paper bag.
37:38
Yeah. That's crazy. So nineteen twenty
37:40
nine is when Tinton debuts. By
37:42
nineteen thirty, the comic is
37:44
so mass that
37:46
José was invited to
37:48
meet the empress, who
37:50
was the ex empress, I guess, Zita
37:52
of Austria Hungary. At the time.
37:54
And when he arrived, he arrived
37:56
by train, and there was just
37:58
huge crowds of people
38:00
there to meet, not
38:02
Ajay specifically. But Tinto because they hired an actor to
38:04
be Tinto, who was an
38:06
unknown kid, who didn't have the right
38:08
color hair,
38:10
and he was mobbed. And not only did he not have the right color
38:12
hair, he also couldn't quite keep
38:14
the quiff up. So José had
38:16
to keep this little, like, ten
38:19
of oily grease --
38:22
Oh. -- hair grease. And I thought you
38:24
were gonna go something about Mary about
38:26
it there then.
38:28
Oh, Jesus.
38:29
Tintin had to ejaculate
38:32
every thirty minutes. Like
38:34
those poor goats. Like the goats and
38:36
someone else's testicles implanted
38:38
into him.
38:38
Exactly. Yeah. Nestoring barnacles to Tinto.
38:42
But yeah. So they came off this train, and
38:44
Tinto, the kid was mobbed,
38:46
and he was he was ripped away, and hersé had to go and chase him
38:49
and bring him back. But it was like
38:51
one direction. Yeah. Right? If
38:53
you remember them? Oh,
38:55
nice. Yeah. Yeah. It was. And in
38:57
fact, you said you gave a famous
38:59
Tinton quote
39:01
there, James. Blistering barnacles. Listering barnacles.
39:03
It's it's captain
39:04
Haddock. Right? Who says that? Yeah.
39:07
Yes. Yeah. Frequently. And this at
39:09
least a quite interesting thing
39:11
about translating tintin into English because
39:13
obviously it was originally written in French.
39:15
I was reading an interview
39:18
with Les L'Estelle Cooper,
39:20
and she was one of the two main translators
39:22
of Tinton from French into English,
39:24
and she was doing for thirty years. But She
39:26
said one of the great challenges is fitting the words exactly
39:28
into the speech bubbles because you
39:30
get exactly the same images. I
39:33
don't you know when you hear a French announcement on a tan eye, and then
39:35
you hear the English one. And the French one always
39:38
goes on about five times longer.
39:40
Mhmm. So don't know how
39:42
she was compressing that, but blistering barnacles was one of the things that she came up
39:45
with as a
39:48
translation of actually,
39:50
I think it was in French,
39:52
which means a thousand pattles.
39:55
He's from Belgium, though, isn't he? Yeah.
39:57
Speak speak speak French?
39:58
Speak French. In the upper Belgium, they
40:00
do. He's supposedly based on
40:04
French wasn't he
40:04
Tinton, Robert Sex a. Yes. Well,
40:07
that's
40:07
a good
40:07
name. It's a great name, isn't
40:10
it? Robert sexy. He
40:12
was a French journalist,
40:14
and apparently, he looked a
40:16
bit like Tinton. He went on
40:19
Advent is to the Soviet Union, to the
40:21
Democratic Republic of Congo, and to the US
40:23
in the same order that Tim Tim
40:25
does those books. But Hosje always said, Tintin
40:28
Simwa. So he always claimed that
40:30
Tintin was based on himself, but I think
40:32
he might have been inspired by various
40:34
different journalists.
40:36
There was another theory that Tinto and all the characters were based
40:38
on the family members of Herge.
40:40
And he denied it later in life. He said, no.
40:42
No. No.
40:44
It's nothing to do with them. But let me just quickly tell you about his
40:46
family. There was his younger
40:48
brother, Paul, who had
40:50
a round face and a quiff. There
40:52
was his dad a
40:54
clumsy man who had a twin brother
40:56
called Leon who lived nearby.
40:58
And the two of them would
41:01
go for walks and they would wear
41:03
identical bow hats and carry
41:05
identical canes singing in unison
41:07
as they
41:08
did. His dog Snowy who originally
41:10
had the name Milo in French Who
41:13
does have the name? Who sorry.
41:15
Brother, who does of the
41:17
name Milo in French, shares that
41:20
name with Herge's first
41:22
girlfriend. Yes. But
41:24
that's known. Yeah. A lot
41:26
of people a lot of people who suggested are you
41:28
saying something rude, but
41:30
Harry Thompson points out that at the time
41:32
it was considered to be
41:34
a great crime if you were a young boy hanging out with the
41:36
opposite sex. Certainly, if you were
41:38
depicting that in comics. And so
41:40
the only way he could represent this person
41:42
who was very fond of was to
41:44
put her as a dog in there. And the one that
41:46
we've got on the other top of What
41:48
what kind of weird
41:50
excuse maker for
41:52
the fact that Ajay put pretty much zero
41:54
women in all of his comics. Were you
41:56
reading? Oh, we weren't allowed
41:58
to include women in comic book. And
42:00
then they had
42:02
to be dogs. They had to come and disguise. He
42:04
just didn't put any women
42:06
characters in. It isn't bit of a They're hard
42:08
to
42:08
draw. Hard
42:08
to draw women, aren't they? So
42:11
that's not true. So about
42:13
Bianca Castafuere, the opera
42:16
singer. She's a huge character in the in the
42:19
You're right. She's she is She's
42:20
here on the account as well. Yeah. That's true.
42:22
No. You're right. He have one. He have Bianca.
42:24
That is true. And he did have the
42:26
dog who made me was based on his girlfriend,
42:28
but also weirdly, the person James mentioned, Sextair,
42:30
he had a travel companion
42:33
called Miloo as
42:34
well. So
42:36
it might've
42:36
been No. No way. Yeah. Have you guys read well, it's apparently
42:38
the best tinto, and I haven't read out a
42:41
shame. Just a shame to
42:43
say, but tinto people seem to say. Mhmm. I'm
42:45
guessing, have you read that race? Yes. So that's
42:48
that's that's my favorite. I mean,
42:50
I've I've Is it? Know
42:52
that I Yeah. I think remember
42:54
back. It might still be there on used
42:56
to be on one of the social media's you put down
42:58
in your favorite book. And I just
43:00
always put to to to to bet.
43:02
Oh, well, you've got such
43:03
good taste. That was his favorite you probably know this. That was owes
43:05
you his favorite as well. Oh, really? Yeah. Yeah. I
43:07
didn't know
43:09
that. That's awesome. I don't know
43:11
because it's got a sesquatch in it as well. That's what Oh, yeah. Of
43:13
course. That's what's your
43:14
favorite. I thought you liked it
43:15
for the great
43:18
philosophical, undertone and the exploration of
43:20
kind of Buddhist theology, but it's
43:22
it's the sass
43:22
no. I've never read it. I just I just went through
43:24
and
43:24
and go straight to the first watch look
43:27
at the pictures time. Well, it makes
43:29
tinted the only fictional character to
43:31
have received the light of truth award from the
43:33
Dalai Lama. So
43:36
this like the best honor that the
43:38
Dalalama can do so, and it's to anyone who improves
43:40
public understanding of Tibet, which
43:42
is questionable if they did chug
43:45
a sasquatch into the storyline. But,
43:46
yeah, the Dalai Lama gave
43:49
Tinton this amazing light of
43:50
truth. What's a year to You know?
43:52
Yeah. It's yeti. Yeah.
43:54
It's perfectly correct. It is. You're
43:56
right.
43:56
It and he's a good guy like
43:59
he saves them.
44:00
So really
44:00
love it when that happens. Yeah. There's there's it's a good it's a great book.
44:02
Does the Dalai Lama believe in
44:05
YETI's? Do you know? Don't if
44:07
anyone else you would I would say so. Yeah.
44:09
So he has alluded to a
44:12
belief. Unfortunately, the person
44:14
he alluded that belief to was Brian Blissett.
44:16
So I'm not sure
44:18
if we can trust
44:21
Brian's reporting, but he when
44:24
Brian was looking to climb to
44:26
the Mount Everest and obviously looking for YETI's along
44:28
the way, he had a what's
44:31
recorded an audience with the Dalai Lama and he met him.
44:33
They they apparently did some boxing
44:36
together. Brian took a walk with him in the woods. He
44:38
saw him revive a headless dead snake
44:40
back to life. And then
44:42
they talked about YETI's and he
44:44
suggested
44:44
that, yeah, that they are real. So, yeah,
44:46
that headless dead snake
44:48
back to life. What did he do? Just
44:50
pick it up and wobble it. Oh
44:53
my god. Your
44:57
egg. You'll just swap like that.
44:59
It's alive. It's alive
45:02
again. He's doing it like the
45:04
thumb trick. You make it go? Yeah.
45:06
Yeah. Yeah. Look at
45:08
that. Well, here's the other thing too,
45:10
I'll say about the hair -- Mhmm. -- the
45:12
haircut on Tinton.
45:14
I mean, think about when you do find your
45:16
your do, you know, when you
45:18
you you're young or whatever, you may be in your
45:20
twenties, you're you're
45:22
playing whether storting something out and you go, right, that's
45:24
me. Quite often, not everybody,
45:26
but a lot of people
45:28
will will keep that hairdo for their
45:30
entire
45:31
life.
45:32
And so
45:32
that kind of fits in when you think about that because even even when
45:35
you lose your hair
45:36
or it goes gray or whatever, you know,
45:38
you go into your your your
45:40
later stages of life, you still got that same
45:42
hair do you head when you're in
45:44
your early
45:45
twenties. That's
45:47
a really a good point. There was a thing. Wasn't
45:49
there there was a scientific paper
45:51
written about Tinton, which was when
45:53
the first book was written, he was
45:55
supposed to be fourteen. And by the
45:57
time the last book was written, he must have been about sixty
46:00
because Huggier was writing them for so
46:02
long. Right.
46:04
But he was sixty years old, never had to
46:06
shave. None of his has fallen
46:08
out. Yeah. He's still got those
46:10
boyish features, and a onto
46:13
these scientists, they reckon he suffered from high pulp
46:16
futurism -- Mhmm. -- due to
46:18
repeated blows to the head in some of
46:20
the early
46:21
books. Oh. And does
46:22
that stop you aging properly? Yeah.
46:24
It means you never go through puberty.
46:26
I see. Hi, Kai. He's
46:29
got sort of an inverse to what most middle
46:31
aged men have, what he's bald all
46:33
around the middle of his
46:34
head, and that he's got a lot just lots of
46:37
hair in the middle. And I'm looking at James has actually brought
46:39
a Tim Tim doll. Do you have a Tim
46:40
Tim? Yeah. To this to this
46:41
episode, another visual feature that will be
46:44
lost on our audience. Well,
46:45
there's like a Mohawk for me. He
46:47
really does. He does have hair.
46:47
Oh, no. No. He does have hair. Sorry when you turn it
46:50
around. Yeah. He's just it's just from the front he
46:52
looks bald. I'd just say one one final
46:54
thing is
46:56
that that he he really didn't like Tinton at the
46:58
end. Much the way that Arthur Conan Doyle
47:00
got sick of his creation of Sherlock
47:02
and he threw him off a
47:05
cliff and and kill arsenal. I arguably,
47:08
it's just a wet clip.
47:10
Only because I went there
47:12
a few weeks ago. Did you To
47:15
the like, poles. Yeah. Yeah. Oh,
47:17
right. Would you say wetcliffe is an accurate description?
47:20
So he he really didn't like
47:22
Tinton at the end, and he was quite sick of
47:24
him. And so So the
47:26
final Tinton book that Jorge was
47:28
working on up until the point of his death
47:30
was a book called Tinton
47:32
and Alfart. And
47:34
all we have is the sort of rough sketches
47:36
of it, but the final pain that he
47:38
got up to, the final bit of the
47:40
story was having tin tin covered in liquid polyester
47:43
and being sold as a work
47:45
of art. And we
47:49
that's the cliffhanger. We don't know what
47:51
happened. Does he die? Does he
47:53
survive? Tinton is like
47:55
like woody from toys story
47:58
left on a cliffhanger. We'll never know.
48:00
So do you mean he was put in like a work
48:02
of art like a Damian Hearst kind
48:04
of
48:04
thing? Yes. That's the idea. Knowing Quentin, as I as I do,
48:06
I would say he'd probably escaped
48:09
from that. Yeah. But
48:12
his his god might have turned him against that. Right?
48:14
Like Jose was who knows what he
48:16
was gonna do there? We just don't
48:19
no. We don't know. Reese? It's it's
48:21
a it's a gigantic Yeah.
48:23
I will. It's interesting. Isn't it? They
48:25
these people that play also when you think
48:27
of actors that play these characters
48:30
that are so loved. And
48:32
they get sick of them as well. I
48:34
was just thinking of Harrison Ford with Hans
48:36
dollar. Mhmm. Or does he not like
48:37
does he not like Hans
48:38
by the Well, he he said he'll come back to Star
48:40
Wars, but he wanted the characters to die,
48:44
which As a spoiler did that. But
48:46
at that least that's if you haven't seen that one,
48:48
it came out a few years ago now. Right.
48:51
But and then
48:53
the whole James Bondi in that last bond that
48:55
that Daniel Craig. Oh, that's a bit more fresh.
48:56
That's a bit more fresh. It
49:00
reminds
49:00
me of that character. I
49:02
a career in there.
49:05
I've got
49:06

49:09

50:23
Okay. On with a
50:25
show. On with a podcast.
50:27
Okay. It
50:32
is time for our final fact of the show
50:34
and that is my fact, my
50:36
fact this week is that for over
50:38
fifty years now, the
50:40
author of a nearly
50:42
complete history of the
50:44
moose in New Zealand has been looking
50:46
for moose in New Zealand
50:48
despite there being no moose
50:50
in
50:51
New Zealand. Or is that?
50:53
Oh, yeah. Exactly. Or is that? Is
50:56
that? No. There isn't well, there
50:58
could be. Errors. Could be?
51:00
You'd be
51:00
good. Well, talk to
51:01
us about how would he not be
51:03
looking? Is it quite a short look? It sounds
51:05
like there's not much to put in this book right
51:07
now if there are no this. Are
51:09
you kidding me? No. There's plenty in this book, and it's not his only book.
51:11
He's written a a bunch of books. He's written
51:13
a wild goose
51:16
chase. He's This guy
51:18
is a legend of New Zealand. Yeah.
51:20
I knew you'd like that then. This
51:22
is a man called Ken Tustin,
51:25
and he has been in the national parks in
51:27
New Zealand and Fjordland looking for Moose
51:30
because there was Moose
51:32
back in the nineteen twenties thirties
51:35
when they were introduced. And there's your clincher. There's
51:38
there was boost. So that it's not like,
51:40
oh, he's going to look for theories and
51:42
I hope there's some
51:44
there. You know, there there was most put there. Then I'll
51:46
be dead found out of those ones. It's a hundred years
51:48
ago. It's a lot of things called mating.
51:52
Oh, it's right. Yeah. Go
51:54
down to the sea. Get your toes
51:57
wet. Coming meet me on
51:59
a wet cliff mate. Wow.
52:05
I'll blind
52:08
follow you. Is that somewhat blowing?
52:10
No. No. It's just
52:13
a whirlwind. Alright. Get
52:15
your idea out. Josh
52:18
your quirks. Here we go.
52:22
And mating.
52:24
Say, this is okay. So I
52:27
got the the decade slightly wrong. This was in nineteen
52:30
ten. And what it was is that
52:32
New Zealanders basically in nineteen ten
52:34
wanted something to hunt natural
52:36
land mammals of that size. And so moose
52:38
were introduced basically to rectify that.
52:40
So initially, the moose really
52:44
adapted well to the surroundings, but
52:46
then red deer were introduced into
52:48
the area and that changed the whole food chain
52:50
so much. That by nineteen fifty two. So there was a good, you know,
52:52
forty odd years that they were
52:54
around. The Moose population really
52:56
dwindled and
52:58
then basically by nineteen thirty disappeared altogether. But then
53:00
in nineteen fifty two, one was
53:02
caught on camera. So there's there's
53:05
a twenty odd year period where people thought they were extinct. Mhmm.
53:07
And then suddenly, boom, here is a moose.
53:10
Mhmm. And that is why
53:12
this guy says there
53:14
may be more moose because
53:16
moose are really good at
53:17
hiding. Yes. They
53:18
are no. They are really they're
53:20
really hard to see. A huge
53:22
I know. They've got big numbers. I know. I know. But this
53:25
is a huge national park, you know. It's
53:27
really hard to spot
53:27
on. A moose could be
53:29
standing in a in
53:32
a field a hundred yards away and you won't see it.
53:34
Wow. They do
53:36
get they get hit by cars a lot that
53:40
they move That that is a big problem in calendar. And is that because of
53:41
their this
53:42
in visibility that they can see Well, that must
53:44
be.
53:44
Right? Yeah. Because they they've got
53:46
this mystical ability. They can
53:50
standstill for a long time. And one of their, I think, one
53:52
of their Look, if
53:54
you can just take this seriously. One
53:57
of their, you know, like
53:59
AAA security measure. Defense
54:02
mechanisms. There you go. There's are the terms.
54:04
I knew you'd get there. Mhmm.
54:06
Is to, you
54:07
know, like, they caught caught a lot of animals use that where they
54:10
just freeze. Like the go thinking and it's
54:12
always
54:12
yeah. Well, no, that's a different one.
54:16
That's But that Well, kind of. But that's that's a gene anomaly.
54:18
Yep. I'm just trying to think of some other animals
54:20
that do it, do the old freeze.
54:22
I think about it in
54:24
headlight. They would grab a headlight.
54:26
And do do that definitely, I
54:28
think, on there. They just
54:29
freeze when they can't deal with situation. I think
54:32
so. Yeah. Like, a possum,
54:34
something they would kind of pretend to
54:36
be dead. No. I think
54:36
all of the examples you've gone so far are
54:39
incorrect. Okay. Well,
54:39
I don't know how There are some
54:42
bugs and things out there will just I think okay.
54:44
Here's one. The stick and stick because
54:46
I saw it
54:47
yesterday.
54:47
Okay. And frozen stick and stick and stick and stick and
54:49
stick. So the thing is I used to have pet
54:51
stick and stick as a child, and they never
54:53
moved ever. It wasn't that as soon as they were in danger,
54:55
they stopped moving. They just stay safe. Defense
54:59
mechanism. Yeah. That was
55:01
sad of me. Mhmm. Yeah. Absolutely. So I've had one I had one
55:03
on my steering wheel the other
55:06
day. This is Beck
55:09
in New When I was in the in
55:11
the rural property. Mhmm. And I I went to grab my
55:14
steering wheel to to to drive
55:16
as you do, and there's a is a
55:18
sticky on there. And I went, oh,
55:20
come on mate. Because if my hands need to be
55:22
there, he was in the two position. Because,
55:24
you know, you go for eleven and two. It's
55:26
the worst. And I went I grabbed
55:28
the
55:28
eleven. And I always grab the left first. Grab the left and go in for
55:30
the two. Oh, there's a sticky there. And I
55:32
says to him, come on
55:33
mate. And I and he just honestly,
55:35
it's him looking at me.
55:38
I'm on the right hand side of him. No problems there, but
55:40
he's not moving. And I come and
55:42
slow and I'm and I even told him coming
55:45
in with the and funny coming 461 at the You're
55:47
on my two position. Nothing. Just
55:49
absolutely frozen. So in the end, I
55:51
just picked him up.
55:54
And he made out like he
55:56
was a stick the whole
55:57
time. I've come to think of it at
55:59
my demeanor. Four four stupid stick
56:01
insect because I
56:04
I see what you're saying now. You're saying animals that have camouflage their
56:06
environment frees, but he's not
56:08
a steering wheel insect. So it would be
56:10
good if you could know as an
56:13
or that the thing you're sitting on -- Yeah. --
56:15
not zombies, but you'd look nothing like
56:17
it. Yeah. I mean, chameleons, they're the other
56:19
ones that lizards and general
56:22
will freeze or or really dart away, but lizards are the ones
56:24
that will will freeze as a as a
56:26
mechanism. So let's go back
56:28
to what what your What
56:30
are we talking about? Moose. We were talking
56:32
about looses. That's right. That's right.
56:34
And so, hey, this is pretty cool.
56:36
We wrote a book years ago
56:38
racer where there was a New Zealand professor called Neil
56:41
Gemmell who had gone to Loch
56:43
Ness and he had used a
56:45
new form called eDNA
56:48
to try and sample the waters of Loch Ness to see
56:50
if the monster may exist. And
56:53
so eDNA seems
56:56
like quite obvious thing that you
56:58
would use in order to try and find
57:00
the moose because you could go there.
57:02
Yeah. And if the moose had been, let's say,
57:04
around a little stream or a pond and if it had been sipping from it in last
57:06
twenty one days, Neil would be able
57:08
to use this device to then take x
57:11
stretch out and say, ugh, there's moose DNA in there. That's that
57:14
means they're alive. Yeah.
57:16
So I actually deamed him
57:18
on Twitter, and I I asked him, you know,
57:20
is this Is this a thing? Would
57:22
you be up for doing it? And
57:24
he said, it's so weird. I actually
57:26
met Ken. I met this guy who's been
57:28
looking for moose. Yeah.
57:30
And he met him when he went back to Loch Ness
57:32
to deliver the results of his
57:34
findings about the water that he took from
57:36
Loch Ness.
57:38
And Ken happened to be there on holiday, and they met
57:40
at lunch to then discuss
57:42
looking for the moves. As
57:46
I might think like it's a massive coincidence, but where is Ken
57:48
gonna holiday? It's obviously gonna be a lot
57:50
less. Where are these two
57:52
letters that you've happened to have heard
57:54
of when see each other. Oh,
57:56
day. So is is he gonna do
57:58
it? Well, he he talks about it. So
58:00
he said, what
58:02
did he say? He said, Ken and I have kept in touch, and the plan was to jump on
58:04
board with him next time he found some sign of
58:06
moose. But there's been little found in the past
58:08
few years. Still remains a possibility. We've
58:12
surveyed quite large sections of fjordland and do reasonably
58:14
broad biodiversity survey setting
58:16
baselines and looking for various things
58:19
endangered birds, some species that are
58:22
presumed to be extinct
58:24
and of course mousse. So
58:26
far, there is no evidence
58:28
of those. However, there's been a hugely exciting thing for
58:30
Ken that happened in twenty twenty,
58:32
which is that a
58:34
kid, when I say kid, he is
58:36
a teenager, And when
58:38
I say teenager, he's in his
58:40
twenties. And
58:42
he was on a flight. He was a
58:44
guy called Ben Young, who was in a helicopter
58:47
flying over Fjordland doing some surveying,
58:49
and he saw a moose.
58:51
He saw the moose. Now here's the
58:53
thing. Here's the
58:54
thing. He's a Canadian who used to
58:56
work with Moose. There you go. He knows what a Moose We all know what a Moose
58:58
looks like. Yeah.
58:59
No public. Canadians really know.
59:01
No public. Really know. Yeah.
59:03
You were specific
59:06
a former moose hunting guide in Canada. I
59:08
still know. Listen, James, he
59:10
would really know. Reese, you're the one who
59:12
just told us a Canadian could be
59:15
turning a hundred feet from a mousse up
59:17
in a plain meadow and not
59:19
see
59:19
it. There you
59:22
go.
59:23
Yeah. Probably. But this guy was a
59:26
trained moose. Yeah.
59:28
Looker. Wasn't
59:28
he? He's
59:29
a trained moose. Yeah. Yeah.
59:31
It's I would say it's not it obviously
59:34
is not the saddest idea they were there,
59:36
like you say, it is a big
59:38
place. And sometimes
59:40
these things come to
59:42
fruition. So there's another really
59:44
great kiwi animal,
59:46
Antoine, New Zealand, the Tawke, which
59:48
I think are pretty rare. I doubt have you
59:50
seen Tawke I think they're quite
59:51
rare, aren't they Reese? Yes.
59:53
They're they're rare. Nice.
59:54
Sure. Nice looking. Very nice looking birds
59:56
though. What kind of
59:57
up there? Yeah. They're the largest bird in, like, the
1:00:00
RAIL family. So, like, coats and more
1:00:02
hands, but much bigger. Very
1:00:04
beautiful blue green feathers.
1:00:06
Huge red beak that goes all
1:00:08
the way up over their foreheads. We can't
1:00:10
fly, but anyway, we thought the Tawkei was
1:00:13
extinct by about nineteen hundred. So
1:00:15
I think the first item by Europeans
1:00:17
was eighteen forty nine of see
1:00:19
the Europeans captured it, roasted it, ate
1:00:21
it. They sort of went quite
1:00:23
quickly extinct. And then there's a guy called
1:00:25
Jeffrey Orbel who when he was
1:00:27
a kid. His mom just showed him a picture of one, I
1:00:30
think, in a childhood book, and he got a
1:00:32
hunch as a child. I bet that's
1:00:34
still out there. And he's been his
1:00:36
life kind of reading on them. And he
1:00:38
was he was a doctor. I think he was a an
1:00:40
eye
1:00:40
doctor, so he was a legit, had a
1:00:42
job. He knew
1:00:43
how his works. So he'd be perfect. Looking
1:00:45
for things. He knows how
1:00:47
really work.
1:00:48
Yeah. He could
1:00:50
he can really
1:00:51
know. Yeah. Yep. So he took
1:00:53
his expert eyes out on this
1:00:55
nineteen forty eight expedition. And
1:00:58
he they went up this mountain and,
1:01:00
you know, these things haven't been seen for
1:01:02
fifty years and they sat by a
1:01:04
little bit of water and two of just straight their net. These
1:01:07
lovely birds waddled in. And we
1:01:09
discovered and now they have them. I think they're
1:01:11
only about three
1:01:11
hundred. They're
1:01:14
very unusual. But Yeah. They're very endangered. Yeah.
1:01:16
But look, there you go. I mean,
1:01:18
that's just one example of
1:01:20
how animals and don't get,
1:01:23
you know, the more intelligently are they know we're
1:01:25
around. They know that
1:01:28
they're endangered. There's only a small group of
1:01:30
them, and they hide, and they
1:01:32
worry, and they their their
1:01:34
survival instinct is their
1:01:36
main feature. Mhmm. And so they
1:01:38
are doing whatever it can take because otherwise,
1:01:40
they could be caught, they could
1:01:42
be we only think it from a human capacity of how how would we
1:01:44
hide? How would we stay alive? But
1:01:46
we're nowhere near as good as animals in the
1:01:48
natural environment
1:01:49
of the forest at at staying alive. Yeah. You're
1:01:52
right. A goose. That's that's
1:01:54
ingrained in its system, isn't it?
1:01:56
Get away. Just back to the fjordlands
1:01:58
very quickly. I just give a shout
1:02:00
out to a legend of the world of ornithology.
1:02:02
He was part of the
1:02:04
ornithological Society of New Zealand, joined
1:02:07
in nineteen fifty a guy called Ron Jack
1:02:09
Nielsen who very sadly passed away October twenty
1:02:12
six, twenty twenty two. He was a
1:02:14
legend of his field and
1:02:16
he spent much like
1:02:18
Ken, many many years looking
1:02:20
for an elusive, supposedly
1:02:22
extinct species of bird, which
1:02:24
are called the
1:02:26
South Island Coca Coke. Have you heard that Coke?
1:02:28
Oh, yeah. We found those
1:02:30
this year.
1:02:31
Yeah. November. What's
1:02:34
that? Yeah. Yeah. It was the first of November When
1:02:36
did he die? Oh,
1:02:42
Trevor,
1:02:43
what it say. Oh, no. Oh,
1:02:45
god. That is no. It's so
1:02:47
much love. Yeah. But no.
1:02:49
Seriously, what what what how do
1:02:51
you spell the bird name? K o
1:02:53
with a line above the k Yeah.
1:02:55
Yo. Sorry. KAK0. It's a
1:02:58
coker code. Coker code. And
1:03:00
it's a bird that hasn't been seen for
1:03:02
many, many years. People occasionally
1:03:04
have supposed sightings, but no
1:03:06
one has properly confirmed it. No one has a
1:03:08
photo. And if anyone in New Zealand
1:03:10
in that region is listening, there is, at least
1:03:13
there was, when this paper was written, a
1:03:15
ten thousand dollar reward for any photographic
1:03:17
proof of the South Island cocoa
1:03:19
there's quite a lot of quite a lot money to be made, doesn't there
1:03:21
if you can find these things that don't
1:03:24
exist? Oh. It's not the easiest
1:03:25
way, prob probably, to pull in
1:03:28
a decent cell a reliable Sally. If you tell your
1:03:30
partner, you know, I'm gonna quit my job
1:03:32
because I've heard lots
1:03:34
of money to be
1:03:34
made. Y'all nagging me too much. I'm gonna
1:03:37
get my books and I gonna go
1:03:39
and find the coconut. Okay. I'll see you. Age
1:03:42
