00:00:27,960 --> 00:00:29,560
Speaker 1: is like in this does one. Chatting to him, I said,

11
00:00:29,560 --> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 1: what is a day like? And he goes, God, the

12
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:34,400
Speaker 1: first couple of days were really hard. He got so

13
00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:37,000
Speaker 1: bored because we all think, ah, you watch Netflix and

14
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:39,080
Speaker 1: stan all that. He goes, yeah, you'll do that for

15
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:41,320
Speaker 1: an hour or two and then you're like, I've got

16
00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 1: another fourteen hours of this day. So he said, on

17
00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 1: day three he had a kind of breakdown as he

18
00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:51,839
Speaker 1: found himself pacing out the distance around his bed, like

19
00:00:51,920 --> 00:00:57,680
Speaker 1: striding out works out it was six meters. He then

20
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 1: did that one thousand times, sat on the bed and

21
00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:04,479
Speaker 1: almost started to cry. And that's day three, Yes, that's

22
00:01:04,560 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 1: day three. He then realizes, right that you know, in

23
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,240
Speaker 1: any kind of it's the way the free market, that

24
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:12,120
Speaker 1: there are companies who worked out that people and then

25
00:01:12,120 --> 00:01:14,839
Speaker 1: they need stuff. There's a company then that. And obviously

26
00:01:14,920 --> 00:01:17,200
Speaker 1: what a great contract to have where you go online

27
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:21,800
Speaker 1: you can order in fitness gear cool yep, So exercise bikes,

28
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:24,880
Speaker 1: rowing machines, weights, you can order as much. You won't

29
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:26,960
Speaker 1: got to pay for a premium, obviously, but they bring

30
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:28,640
Speaker 1: you gear and stuff like that. So he's got a

31
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:31,640
Speaker 1: the only thing that was left because everyone else when

32
00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:33,760
Speaker 1: they started the two weeks Stint had been were aware

33
00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:35,760
Speaker 1: of this. He wasn't. He's got some old sort of

34
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:39,200
Speaker 1: school gym static bike that one of those old sort

35
00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:43,440
Speaker 1: of metallic ones, even just getting one like one on

36
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:48,200
Speaker 1: this mankey old nineteen seventies exercise bike every day with

37
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:50,640
Speaker 1: no view, just looking at a wall, you know. He said,

38
00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:52,360
Speaker 1: So he's got that now to happen out. And I said,

39
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:54,560
Speaker 1: what was about the alcohol, because I didn't know whether

40
00:01:54,600 --> 00:01:55,880
Speaker 1: you were now to drink it? Do you have a

41
00:01:55,920 --> 00:02:00,240
Speaker 1: mini bar? No? No spirits? Okay, I think for that

42
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 1: kind of rule they've something's happened. If you don't start

43
00:02:03,200 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: with that rule, if someone someone's gone too heavy in

44
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:09,400
Speaker 1: the spirits like day one have just been a pain

45
00:02:09,480 --> 00:02:11,400
Speaker 1: in the backside. They're like, hey, for now one guys,

46
00:02:11,680 --> 00:02:14,239
Speaker 1: leave the top shelf stuff along, right, You've got enough

47
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:16,000
Speaker 1: demons to get through in two weeks. Don't bring them

48
00:02:16,040 --> 00:02:18,480
Speaker 1: out of the bottle. So no top shelf boost. Right.

49
00:02:19,360 --> 00:02:22,320
Speaker 1: When he's like checking in, he says he doesn't want

50
00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,400
Speaker 1: to make up that he's obviously needing wine to get through.

51
00:02:24,440 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 1: He goes, and if I, you know, on a Friday

52
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:31,520
Speaker 1: or Saturday night he's aging every night. You know, I

53
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:33,720
Speaker 1: do love a glass, just one or two on a

54
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,200
Speaker 1: Friday or how much isn't there? He goes, it's one

55
00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,800
Speaker 1: bottle of day. And he went right, okay, all right, okay,

56
00:02:39,040 --> 00:02:41,240
Speaker 1: And then he goes, I would never have an extra

57
00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:43,880
Speaker 1: glass of a second one, but if I want to to,

58
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:46,720
Speaker 1: you know, if I wanted to some kind of bottle,

59
00:02:47,080 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 1: I'm not going to have the second bottle. But if

60
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:50,280
Speaker 1: I want to do this is a comfort knowing it

61
00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 1: session it's one bottle of day, he said. He's got

62
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:55,280
Speaker 1: the situation. Now. Sometimes he goes, he can just himself

63
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,280
Speaker 1: till six o'clock. He gets till six slot and then

64
00:02:57,280 --> 00:02:59,079
Speaker 1: he has a glass of wine said by a sort

65
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 1: of corbas seven. The whole bottle was gone, and he's

66
00:03:01,560 --> 00:03:03,639
Speaker 1: got another long cut of arts before he goes to bed.

67
00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,720
Speaker 1: He's now rationing himself on some days, having no wine

68
00:03:06,880 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 1: so he can have an extra couple of glasses. This

69
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:14,120
Speaker 1: is his life for two weeks. I was thinking, right,

70
00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:16,760
Speaker 1: you know, if I was that fitness company, you would

71
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:20,600
Speaker 1: make you triple your profits sneaking in boost you go.

72
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:23,720
Speaker 1: He he wants an x a cup of dumbbells, six

73
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:28,440
Speaker 1: bottles of booze durfee sales dumb bells. I'd be smuggling

74
00:03:28,440 --> 00:03:30,320
Speaker 1: them and changing him a lot more in cash. Why

75
00:03:30,320 --> 00:03:35,080
Speaker 1: are these medicine balls clickings? Christ Connel Show Podcast
