1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:02,639
Speaker 1: Let's get into this. I think story of the week.

2
00:00:02,840 --> 00:00:06,800
Speaker 1: You ever met an African gray parrot? Very aggressive parrots?

3
00:00:07,120 --> 00:00:09,080
Speaker 1: The only no is I went to a pet shot once.

4
00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:10,799
Speaker 1: When was the last time you go into a pet shop?

5
00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:13,440
Speaker 1: I reckon, we could do a phone in about pet shops.

6
00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:16,040
Speaker 1: There are mysterious, wonderful places. And I remember when I

7
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:18,840
Speaker 1: went in, right, there was a massive sign you almost

8
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:21,280
Speaker 1: hid it on your head. It went, be careful of

9
00:00:21,320 --> 00:00:26,920
Speaker 1: the parrot. It's dangerous, right, you've got my guy? What's

10
00:00:26,920 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 1: the business with that? He goes, yeah, sorry, Matt. The

11
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:30,880
Speaker 1: moment we're trying to sell an African gray parrot, it's

12
00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:36,400
Speaker 1: a nightmare. I went, what do you mean? It swears

13
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:38,440
Speaker 1: and stuff like that? In the last owner taught it

14
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:40,839
Speaker 1: swear words. So which is why this story that's come

15
00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:44,479
Speaker 1: out of England caught my attention. This is amazing. What

16
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:49,600
Speaker 1: a headline. Swearing parrots removed from view. Five parrots at

17
00:00:49,640 --> 00:00:52,080
Speaker 1: a wildlife park in the UK have been removed from

18
00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:58,640
Speaker 1: public display after they started swearing visits. I pay extra,

19
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:01,240
Speaker 1: pay extra. There's one fee, but if you want to

20
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:03,320
Speaker 1: be sworn at by those parrots then it's an extra

21
00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:05,760
Speaker 1: ten bucks. Now I'm paying that as an adult only

22
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:07,920
Speaker 1: part of the same. You don't need to bring the kid.

23
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:09,800
Speaker 1: Come on, if you want to entertain the kids, you

24
00:01:09,800 --> 00:01:11,560
Speaker 1: can leave them in front of their parents. Swearing parents

25
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:15,200
Speaker 1: are five hours. That's amazing, what a keel joys. The

26
00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:19,720
Speaker 1: parrots apparently swear to trigger reaction or a response. I mean,

27
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,360
Speaker 1: that's like teenagers, that's like my daughters. So if people

28
00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:25,080
Speaker 1: look shocked or laugh it, encourage them to do it again.

29
00:01:26,800 --> 00:01:29,640
Speaker 1: Encourage the parrots. Yes, with the five of them in

30
00:01:29,680 --> 00:01:32,559
Speaker 1: one cage, one would swear and the others would laugh,

31
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,040
Speaker 1: and then the one that swore would carry on. Set

32
00:01:35,080 --> 00:01:41,360
Speaker 1: a spokesperson. The parrots are laughing at the other one.

33
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 1: He's doing it more. Some visitors found it funny, but

34
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,600
Speaker 1: the other people complain. So we've decided to move them

35
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: round the back. I feel sorry round the back by

36
00:01:48,840 --> 00:01:51,040
Speaker 1: the bins now just swearing their hearts out. They must

37
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 1: be really kicking off now they'd be filthy. I'm hoping

38
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 1: they learn different words with the colony that have been

39
00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,960
Speaker 1: moved to. But the trouble is if they I'm not

40
00:02:00,000 --> 00:02:01,560
Speaker 1: making this up. This has come from a spokespus right.

41
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:06,520
Speaker 1: If they teach the others bad language. We could end

42
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:08,919
Speaker 1: up with two hundred and fifty swearing birds. I don't

43
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:11,079
Speaker 1: know what we're going to do. Then get them all

44
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:14,919
Speaker 1: out of the front of the zoo. You'll be millionaires.

45
00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:18,520
Speaker 1: Pilgrimage two hundred. I mean, what's funny than five swearing

46
00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:22,239
Speaker 1: parrots two hundred and fifty. It'd be like an orchestra.

47
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:28,160
Speaker 1: Earlier this year, the same wildlife center went viral when

48
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,880
Speaker 1: one of the parrots there, a small green parrot, went

49
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:35,639
Speaker 1: viral on social media with his version Chico of Beyond Beyonces.

50
00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:37,760
Speaker 1: If I were a boy, you want to hear this now.

51
00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,959
Speaker 1: I was just playing this to Jack. This is, of course,

52
00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:43,280
Speaker 1: I promise you. I'm looking at the video. We put

53
00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:45,040
Speaker 1: it up on our Facebook page and a second right,

54
00:02:45,280 --> 00:02:48,000
Speaker 1: I swear this is true. Right, this is a parrot

55
00:02:48,720 --> 00:02:58,000
Speaker 1: covering beyonceys. If I were a boy, this is the parrot.

56
00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:07,280
Speaker 1: That's a parrot. What is zoom? You've got a Beyonce

57
00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 1: parrot and two hundred and fifty swearing parrots. As soon

58
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 1: as we can get on planes, I'm taking you to

59
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:18,959
Speaker 1: that wildlife park. Everyone. Christian O'Connell Show podcast
