WEBVTT - MINI: Swearing Parrots

0:00:00.120 --> 0:00:02.639
<v Speaker 1>Let's get into this. I think story of the week.

0:00:02.840 --> 0:00:06.800
<v Speaker 1>You ever met an African gray parrot? Very aggressive parrots?

0:00:07.120 --> 0:00:09.080
<v Speaker 1>The only no is I went to a pet shot once.

0:00:09.119 --> 0:00:10.799
<v Speaker 1>When was the last time you go into a pet shop?

0:00:11.480 --> 0:00:13.440
<v Speaker 1>I reckon, we could do a phone in about pet shops.

0:00:13.440 --> 0:00:16.040
<v Speaker 1>There are mysterious, wonderful places. And I remember when I

0:00:16.079 --> 0:00:18.840
<v Speaker 1>went in, right, there was a massive sign you almost

0:00:18.920 --> 0:00:21.280
<v Speaker 1>hid it on your head. It went, be careful of

0:00:21.320 --> 0:00:26.920
<v Speaker 1>the parrot. It's dangerous, right, you've got my guy? What's

0:00:26.920 --> 0:00:28.760
<v Speaker 1>the business with that? He goes, yeah, sorry, Matt. The

0:00:28.800 --> 0:00:30.880
<v Speaker 1>moment we're trying to sell an African gray parrot, it's

0:00:30.920 --> 0:00:36.400
<v Speaker 1>a nightmare. I went, what do you mean? It swears

0:00:36.400 --> 0:00:38.440
<v Speaker 1>and stuff like that? In the last owner taught it

0:00:38.520 --> 0:00:40.839
<v Speaker 1>swear words. So which is why this story that's come

0:00:40.840 --> 0:00:44.479
<v Speaker 1>out of England caught my attention. This is amazing. What

0:00:44.600 --> 0:00:49.600
<v Speaker 1>a headline. Swearing parrots removed from view. Five parrots at

0:00:49.640 --> 0:00:52.080
<v Speaker 1>a wildlife park in the UK have been removed from

0:00:52.120 --> 0:00:58.640
<v Speaker 1>public display after they started swearing visits. I pay extra,

0:00:59.280 --> 0:01:01.240
<v Speaker 1>pay extra. There's one fee, but if you want to

0:01:01.240 --> 0:01:03.320
<v Speaker 1>be sworn at by those parrots then it's an extra

0:01:03.440 --> 0:01:05.760
<v Speaker 1>ten bucks. Now I'm paying that as an adult only

0:01:05.800 --> 0:01:07.920
<v Speaker 1>part of the same. You don't need to bring the kid.

0:01:08.000 --> 0:01:09.800
<v Speaker 1>Come on, if you want to entertain the kids, you

0:01:09.800 --> 0:01:11.560
<v Speaker 1>can leave them in front of their parents. Swearing parents

0:01:11.560 --> 0:01:15.200
<v Speaker 1>are five hours. That's amazing, what a keel joys. The

0:01:15.319 --> 0:01:19.720
<v Speaker 1>parrots apparently swear to trigger reaction or a response. I mean,

0:01:19.720 --> 0:01:22.360
<v Speaker 1>that's like teenagers, that's like my daughters. So if people

0:01:22.360 --> 0:01:25.080
<v Speaker 1>look shocked or laugh it, encourage them to do it again.

0:01:26.800 --> 0:01:29.640
<v Speaker 1>Encourage the parrots. Yes, with the five of them in

0:01:29.680 --> 0:01:32.559
<v Speaker 1>one cage, one would swear and the others would laugh,

0:01:32.640 --> 0:01:35.040
<v Speaker 1>and then the one that swore would carry on. Set

0:01:35.080 --> 0:01:41.360
<v Speaker 1>a spokesperson. The parrots are laughing at the other one.

0:01:41.440 --> 0:01:44.440
<v Speaker 1>He's doing it more. Some visitors found it funny, but

0:01:44.440 --> 0:01:46.600
<v Speaker 1>the other people complain. So we've decided to move them

0:01:46.640 --> 0:01:48.800
<v Speaker 1>round the back. I feel sorry round the back by

0:01:48.840 --> 0:01:51.040
<v Speaker 1>the bins now just swearing their hearts out. They must

0:01:51.080 --> 0:01:54.400
<v Speaker 1>be really kicking off now they'd be filthy. I'm hoping

0:01:54.480 --> 0:01:57.440
<v Speaker 1>they learn different words with the colony that have been

0:01:57.440 --> 0:01:59.960
<v Speaker 1>moved to. But the trouble is if they I'm not

0:02:00.000 --> 0:02:01.560
<v Speaker 1>making this up. This has come from a spokespus right.

0:02:02.920 --> 0:02:06.520
<v Speaker 1>If they teach the others bad language. We could end

0:02:06.600 --> 0:02:08.919
<v Speaker 1>up with two hundred and fifty swearing birds. I don't

0:02:08.960 --> 0:02:11.079
<v Speaker 1>know what we're going to do. Then get them all

0:02:11.400 --> 0:02:14.919
<v Speaker 1>out of the front of the zoo. You'll be millionaires.

0:02:15.440 --> 0:02:18.520
<v Speaker 1>Pilgrimage two hundred. I mean, what's funny than five swearing

0:02:18.880 --> 0:02:22.239
<v Speaker 1>parrots two hundred and fifty. It'd be like an orchestra.

0:02:25.240 --> 0:02:28.160
<v Speaker 1>Earlier this year, the same wildlife center went viral when

0:02:28.160 --> 0:02:30.880
<v Speaker 1>one of the parrots there, a small green parrot, went

0:02:30.960 --> 0:02:35.639
<v Speaker 1>viral on social media with his version Chico of Beyond Beyonces.

0:02:35.720 --> 0:02:37.760
<v Speaker 1>If I were a boy, you want to hear this now.

0:02:37.880 --> 0:02:40.959
<v Speaker 1>I was just playing this to Jack. This is, of course,

0:02:41.400 --> 0:02:43.280
<v Speaker 1>I promise you. I'm looking at the video. We put

0:02:43.320 --> 0:02:45.040
<v Speaker 1>it up on our Facebook page and a second right,

0:02:45.280 --> 0:02:48.000
<v Speaker 1>I swear this is true. Right, this is a parrot

0:02:48.720 --> 0:02:58.000
<v Speaker 1>covering beyonceys. If I were a boy, this is the parrot.

0:03:01.440 --> 0:03:07.280
<v Speaker 1>That's a parrot. What is zoom? You've got a Beyonce

0:03:07.480 --> 0:03:10.880
<v Speaker 1>parrot and two hundred and fifty swearing parrots. As soon

0:03:10.919 --> 0:03:12.960
<v Speaker 1>as we can get on planes, I'm taking you to

0:03:13.000 --> 0:03:18.959
<v Speaker 1>that wildlife park. Everyone. Christian O'Connell Show podcast
