Speaker 1: Let's get into this. I think story of the week.
Speaker 1: You ever met an African gray parrot? Very aggressive parrots?
Speaker 1: The only no is I went to a pet shot once.
Speaker 1: When was the last time you go into a pet shop?
Speaker 1: I reckon, we could do a phone in about pet shops.
Speaker 1: There are mysterious, wonderful places. And I remember when I
Speaker 1: went in, right, there was a massive sign you almost
Speaker 1: hid it on your head. It went, be careful of
Speaker 1: the parrot. It's dangerous, right, you've got my guy? What's
Speaker 1: the business with that? He goes, yeah, sorry, Matt. The
Speaker 1: moment we're trying to sell an African gray parrot, it's
Speaker 1: a nightmare. I went, what do you mean? It swears
Speaker 1: and stuff like that? In the last owner taught it
Speaker 1: swear words. So which is why this story that's come
Speaker 1: out of England caught my attention. This is amazing. What
Speaker 1: a headline. Swearing parrots removed from view. Five parrots at
Speaker 1: a wildlife park in the UK have been removed from
Speaker 1: public display after they started swearing visits. I pay extra,
Speaker 1: pay extra. There's one fee, but if you want to
Speaker 1: be sworn at by those parrots then it's an extra
Speaker 1: ten bucks. Now I'm paying that as an adult only
Speaker 1: part of the same. You don't need to bring the kid.
Speaker 1: Come on, if you want to entertain the kids, you
Speaker 1: can leave them in front of their parents. Swearing parents
Speaker 1: are five hours. That's amazing, what a keel joys. The
Speaker 1: parrots apparently swear to trigger reaction or a response. I mean,
Speaker 1: that's like teenagers, that's like my daughters. So if people
Speaker 1: look shocked or laugh it, encourage them to do it again.
Speaker 1: Encourage the parrots. Yes, with the five of them in
Speaker 1: one cage, one would swear and the others would laugh,
Speaker 1: and then the one that swore would carry on. Set
Speaker 1: a spokesperson. The parrots are laughing at the other one.
Speaker 1: He's doing it more. Some visitors found it funny, but
Speaker 1: the other people complain. So we've decided to move them
Speaker 1: round the back. I feel sorry round the back by
Speaker 1: the bins now just swearing their hearts out. They must
Speaker 1: be really kicking off now they'd be filthy. I'm hoping
Speaker 1: they learn different words with the colony that have been
Speaker 1: moved to. But the trouble is if they I'm not
Speaker 1: making this up. This has come from a spokespus right.
Speaker 1: If they teach the others bad language. We could end
Speaker 1: up with two hundred and fifty swearing birds. I don't
Speaker 1: know what we're going to do. Then get them all
Speaker 1: out of the front of the zoo. You'll be millionaires.
Speaker 1: Pilgrimage two hundred. I mean, what's funny than five swearing
Speaker 1: parrots two hundred and fifty. It'd be like an orchestra.
Speaker 1: Earlier this year, the same wildlife center went viral when
Speaker 1: one of the parrots there, a small green parrot, went
Speaker 1: viral on social media with his version Chico of Beyond Beyonces.
Speaker 1: If I were a boy, you want to hear this now.
Speaker 1: I was just playing this to Jack. This is, of course,
Speaker 1: I promise you. I'm looking at the video. We put
Speaker 1: it up on our Facebook page and a second right,
Speaker 1: I swear this is true. Right, this is a parrot
Speaker 1: covering beyonceys. If I were a boy, this is the parrot.
Speaker 1: That's a parrot. What is zoom? You've got a Beyonce
Speaker 1: parrot and two hundred and fifty swearing parrots. As soon
Speaker 1: as we can get on planes, I'm taking you to
Speaker 1: that wildlife park. Everyone. Christian O'Connell Show podcast
