<v Speaker 2>we're diving into it. Your stories of sporting failure. I

0:00:36.520 --> 0:00:40.840
<v Speaker 2>remember in nineteen eighty nine there was a British title

0:00:40.880 --> 0:00:43.599
<v Speaker 2>boxing fight and one of the boxes, Tony Wilson, has

0:00:43.680 --> 0:00:46.240
<v Speaker 2>been so badly beaten by his opponent, Steve McCarthy.

0:00:46.600 --> 0:00:49.160
<v Speaker 1>His mum got came.

0:00:49.040 --> 0:00:51.159
<v Speaker 2>To the corner of the ring, took a shoe off

0:00:51.159 --> 0:00:54.120
<v Speaker 2>and started hitting the opponent. This was live on TV

0:00:54.320 --> 0:00:58.960
<v Speaker 2>for a national middleweight title. Your mum, your grown up dudes,

0:00:59.240 --> 0:01:00.560
<v Speaker 2>your professional boxer.

0:01:00.640 --> 0:01:01.520
<v Speaker 1>He retired after that.

0:01:01.600 --> 0:01:04.080
<v Speaker 2>Tony Wilson, his mum took a shoe off and started

0:01:04.120 --> 0:01:04.840
<v Speaker 2>hitting the other guy.

0:01:05.240 --> 0:01:09.240
<v Speaker 1>Bad boy attacking my son. All right, sporting failure, Steve,

0:01:09.319 --> 0:01:10.160
<v Speaker 1>Good morning.

0:01:10.720 --> 0:01:15.840
<v Speaker 3>Good morning, gang, Happy Tuesday, Way back in nineteen eighty three,

0:01:15.920 --> 0:01:19.120
<v Speaker 3>I think it was eighty four, when I was much

0:01:19.160 --> 0:01:22.000
<v Speaker 3>more awesomer than I am now. I was in the

0:01:22.080 --> 0:01:24.680
<v Speaker 3>nightclub and it was kind of late in the nightclub day,

0:01:25.280 --> 0:01:27.600
<v Speaker 3>and the word went out, we're going to all have

0:01:27.640 --> 0:01:29.840
<v Speaker 3>a push up competition. So I said, no problems.

0:01:29.880 --> 0:01:30.760
<v Speaker 4>I'm really good at this.

0:01:30.959 --> 0:01:31.520
<v Speaker 3>I can do this.

0:01:32.040 --> 0:01:35.360
<v Speaker 4>Nightclub obviously changed, but one time I got this very good,

0:01:36.080 --> 0:01:37.759
<v Speaker 4>but now as.

0:01:37.640 --> 0:01:41.840
<v Speaker 3>A winner, So whoever one got a slab, So I thought, no,

0:01:41.920 --> 0:01:43.720
<v Speaker 3>I can do this because I was really in my

0:01:43.760 --> 0:01:44.520
<v Speaker 3>prime them days.

0:01:44.520 --> 0:01:45.440
<v Speaker 5>So here we go.

0:01:45.520 --> 0:01:48.200
<v Speaker 3>So I'm going hard and going really well. Got up

0:01:48.200 --> 0:01:51.080
<v Speaker 3>to ninety two ninety three, and I won't won.

<v Speaker 2>ninety two ninety three, nine thousand and five.

0:02:00.040 --> 0:02:02.840
<v Speaker 3>It is no to be serious. I used to do

0:02:02.920 --> 0:02:04.520
<v Speaker 3>those for almost a living, so.

0:02:07.080 --> 0:02:18.240
<v Speaker 2>Prayer this is sporty, tough guy.

0:02:11.919 --> 0:02:17.040
<v Speaker 3>To anyway, what happens as I've done that, and I've

0:02:17.080 --> 0:02:20.120
<v Speaker 3>gone right, I'm going to do the rocky here and show.

0:02:19.680 --> 0:02:20.320
<v Speaker 5>Off a little bit.

0:02:20.639 --> 0:02:22.640
<v Speaker 3>So I've gone the left handed push up. I was

0:02:22.639 --> 0:02:25.560
<v Speaker 3>single handed, and then when I flicked to go to

0:02:25.600 --> 0:02:28.800
<v Speaker 3>the right hand, my shoulder popped out and I dissiocated

0:02:28.880 --> 0:02:31.080
<v Speaker 3>my shoulder and the band went through through the top

0:02:31.120 --> 0:02:31.600
<v Speaker 3>of my shoulder.

0:02:34.160 --> 0:02:36.720
<v Speaker 1>Another one thous and that was it.

0:02:37.360 --> 0:02:39.560

0:02:40.480 --> 0:02:43.200
<v Speaker 1>Oh wow, Steve, thank you very much. You got mate.

<v Speaker 1>Have a good day.

0:02:43.919 --> 0:02:48.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, welcome, have a great day, guys.

0:02:51.400 --> 0:02:53.320
<v Speaker 1>Uh Peter, good morning, sporting.

0:02:54.919 --> 0:02:55.760
<v Speaker 5>Hey guys, how are you?

0:02:56.040 --> 0:02:58.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, we're good. What's your story for us? Pete?

0:02:58.360 --> 0:02:58.760
<v Speaker 5>Good?

0:02:59.440 --> 0:03:01.760
<v Speaker 4>Back off years now? We used to play under ten

0:03:02.280 --> 0:03:06.040
<v Speaker 4>football and one so they matched the coach and we've

0:03:06.080 --> 0:03:08.760
<v Speaker 4>got no goalkeeper. He hasn't showed up. So I've decided

0:03:09.120 --> 0:03:11.440
<v Speaker 4>how hard can it be? I'll go in the goals.

0:03:12.080 --> 0:03:14.799
<v Speaker 4>So meantime we as the game was going on, We're

0:03:14.840 --> 0:03:17.800
<v Speaker 4>playing against this other team. I swear with like ninjas

0:03:18.040 --> 0:03:20.880
<v Speaker 4>all over the place. We've got to talk about eight nial,

0:03:21.600 --> 0:03:24.320
<v Speaker 4>nine nil, ten nil. In the end, the coach ended

0:03:24.360 --> 0:03:26.720
<v Speaker 4>up speaking to the other coach and they decided the

0:03:26.720 --> 0:03:28.240
<v Speaker 4>best thing was to put two of us in the

0:03:28.280 --> 0:03:30.960
<v Speaker 4>goals and goalkeepers.

0:03:32.000 --> 0:03:33.000
<v Speaker 1>On top of each other.

0:03:33.520 --> 0:03:33.760
<v Speaker 5>Twelve.

0:03:35.920 --> 0:03:38.200
<v Speaker 1>At least you stem the bleeding somewhat. Do you know

0:03:38.280 --> 0:03:38.800
<v Speaker 1>what many is?

0:03:38.800 --> 0:03:40.960
<v Speaker 2>The time I wish watching a Soka go wish they

0:03:41.040 --> 0:03:42.080
<v Speaker 2>had double keepers.

0:03:43.240 --> 0:03:44.000
<v Speaker 5>They guided it up.

0:03:44.040 --> 0:03:45.040
<v Speaker 4>That might be the solution.

0:03:45.200 --> 0:03:46.000
<v Speaker 2>So that's what they did.

0:03:46.360 --> 0:03:49.520
<v Speaker 1>Yes, that we couldn't stop them all over the players.

0:03:51.840 --> 0:03:53.960
<v Speaker 2>Oh my, Peter, that is a great one. We're going

0:03:54.040 --> 0:03:55.440
<v Speaker 2>to give you a prize for that. In fact, Peter,

0:03:55.480 --> 0:03:58.320
<v Speaker 2>I'll give you a two hunch too, voucher for Interflora.

0:03:59.040 --> 0:04:01.040
<v Speaker 1>Oh, thank you for that. That's a great story. Thanks

0:04:01.040 --> 0:04:02.880
<v Speaker 1>your story. Have a great day, Have a good day,

0:04:04.280 --> 0:04:04.800
<v Speaker 1>good morning.

0:04:05.480 --> 0:04:06.800
<v Speaker 5>Yes, how are you guys.

0:04:07.000 --> 0:04:08.680
<v Speaker 1>Very good on shore. Welcome to the show.

0:04:09.320 --> 0:04:13.520
<v Speaker 5>Yes, thank you. So when I was back in Friends

0:04:13.560 --> 0:04:18.400
<v Speaker 5>and I was studying so at school for the trimester,

0:04:18.680 --> 0:04:22.040
<v Speaker 5>the teacher said, okay, we we're going to to try

0:04:22.080 --> 0:04:25.520
<v Speaker 5>to play golf. So we went to the driving range

0:04:25.880 --> 0:04:28.799
<v Speaker 5>and then I hid. So I was already the little

0:04:28.839 --> 0:04:33.000
<v Speaker 5>clown of the classroom, always trying to make everybody love.

0:04:34.560 --> 0:04:41.120
<v Speaker 5>Hasn't changed, clown, Yes, And I hit the ball. I

0:04:41.200 --> 0:04:43.600
<v Speaker 5>hit the ball as hard and strong as a cool

0:04:44.240 --> 0:04:48.120
<v Speaker 5>And then you went in the sky and it was

0:04:48.160 --> 0:04:53.000
<v Speaker 5>pretty windy, and the ball went on the left, landed

0:04:53.200 --> 0:04:56.120
<v Speaker 5>on the car park and smashed the wind queen of

0:04:56.160 --> 0:05:00.799
<v Speaker 5>the car. And so the teacher told me like, please,

0:05:00.839 --> 0:05:04.360
<v Speaker 5>don't touch anything anymore. Just have a seat. And then

0:05:04.520 --> 0:05:08.080
<v Speaker 5>the last time I went on the sports class, it

0:05:08.240 --> 0:05:11.400
<v Speaker 5>was baseball. And then I hit the ball eyes hard

0:05:11.440 --> 0:05:13.919
<v Speaker 5>and as strong as I could. And when I was

0:05:13.960 --> 0:05:16.480
<v Speaker 5>about to run to do a home run, I threw

0:05:16.560 --> 0:05:19.400
<v Speaker 5>the bat behind me, but the bat landed on the

0:05:19.480 --> 0:05:22.400
<v Speaker 5>knee of the girl who was trying to catch the ball,

0:05:22.680 --> 0:05:28.320
<v Speaker 5>and I just dislocated her knees. And that's it. And

0:05:28.480 --> 0:05:30.480
<v Speaker 5>after the least and last time and the next time

0:05:30.520 --> 0:05:33.520
<v Speaker 5>I went to play sports, the teachers that I think

0:05:33.520 --> 0:05:35.800
<v Speaker 5>you feeling well today, you're just gonna sit and watch it.

0:05:37.279 --> 0:05:39.680
<v Speaker 1>All right, Remy, thank you very much your stories there.

0:05:40.320 --> 0:05:41.080
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I'm a pleasure.

0:05:41.200 --> 0:05:41.440
<v Speaker 1>Thank you.
