Speaker 4: So Neil has no ACL, no PCL and no MCL

123
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:24,440
Speaker 4: in his knee. Essentially, he's got nothing his knee except

124
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:25,800
Speaker 4: his term bone on bone.

125
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:27,919
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's just bone on bone and a little bit

126
00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:30,039
Speaker 1: of cellotape holding him all together.

127
00:05:30,400 --> 00:05:32,720
Speaker 4: But he's still walking around. And Anthony is one of

128
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 4: the wizards of odds, has no spleen after a bike

129
00:05:37,480 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 4: accident when he was a teenager.

130
00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:41,359
Speaker 1: All right, there's that Tony then, who's got no lens

131
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:43,800
Speaker 1: in his right eye, so many can't see that his

132
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:46,120
Speaker 1: right eye off focus. I'm not sure what that would mean.

133
00:05:46,960 --> 00:05:52,080
Speaker 1: Joe's dad has no knee cap on the left knee.

134
00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:53,240
Speaker 4: How do you lose a cap?

135
00:05:53,400 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 1: I don't know whether it's been taken out our decorator.

136
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:59,359
Speaker 1: This comes from Nick, our decorator, who's here at the

137
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:06,280
Speaker 1: moment this into this. I love this. I don't know.

138
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:09,600
Speaker 1: Our decorator claims that when he I'm not laughing at

139
00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,839
Speaker 1: this bit, okay, obviously serious voice. Our decorator claims that

140
00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:15,320
Speaker 1: when he had a heart attack and fell off his bicycle,

141
00:06:15,560 --> 00:06:19,520
Speaker 1: the hospital informed him was he where he had no hips?

142
00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:22,200
Speaker 1: This seems very odd Christian as he's walking around my

143
00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:25,040
Speaker 1: house painting and decorating for the last week, but he's

144
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 1: just informed me he's got no hips.

145
00:06:27,720 --> 00:06:30,159
Speaker 4: Oh, well, where does the hips start and finish?

146
00:06:30,640 --> 00:06:30,880
Speaker 6: No?

147
00:06:31,279 --> 00:06:33,839
Speaker 1: I don't know. How can you be walking around and

148
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 1: a professional painter and decorator with no hips? Shakira needs

149
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:40,720
Speaker 1: to do a follow up to these hips don't lie

150
00:06:40,839 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 1: with there are no hips?

151
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:44,760
Speaker 4: Nick go do us a favor. Go on poking where

152
00:06:44,760 --> 00:06:46,800
Speaker 4: the hips would be and tell if if it's just

153
00:06:46,920 --> 00:06:48,520
Speaker 4: flesh or if you can feel a bit.

154
00:06:48,440 --> 00:06:50,640
Speaker 1: Can you tap bone out the hip bone? Surely that

155
00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:53,160
Speaker 1: can't be right. All right, let's take some more calls. Margaret,

156
00:06:53,200 --> 00:06:55,720
Speaker 1: good morning, Good morning, Christian.

157

162
00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:03,520

00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:06,880
Speaker 1: All right? How so? How come what large? Smaller? Testing?

164
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 5: I left my whole my whole stomach. I had a

165
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 5: tumor on the top of it. And nine and a

166
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,840
Speaker 5: half months ago the tumor went. He took the stomach

167
00:07:16,880 --> 00:07:21,280
Speaker 5: with him because he'd infiltrated it. So they brought my

168
00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 5: small intestine up to my esophagus and now I have

169
00:07:24,760 --> 00:07:27,040
Speaker 5: about ten small meals a day.

170
00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:27,640
Speaker 3: Wow.

171
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:28,880

00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:34,800
Speaker 5: don't for me, I don't have a first ever, so

174
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:37,360
Speaker 5: I just have to put fuel in my body all day.

Speaker 5: Yes, they found the cancer's tumor on the top of

179
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:49,800
Speaker 5: my stomach at the junction of my esophagus and stomach

180
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:55,119
Speaker 5: last year, so I had temo for four months and

181
00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:58,240

219
00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:42,760
Speaker 1: good buddy. What's missing in you? Ross?

220
00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:44,480
Speaker 6: My kidneys?

221
00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:45,520
Speaker 1: No kidneys?

222
00:09:45,559 --> 00:09:49,240
Speaker 6: How come that diagnosed ten years ago with a kidney

223
00:09:49,240 --> 00:09:52,079
Speaker 6: disease and ended up having a transplant two and a

224
00:09:52,120 --> 00:09:52,840
Speaker 6: half years ago.

225
00:09:53,000 --> 00:09:56,640
Speaker 1: And do you have to have like regular monthly dialysis? No?

226
00:09:56,640 --> 00:10:00,720
Speaker 6: No, no, no dialysis. Just I was lucky enough that

227
00:10:00,880 --> 00:10:03,520
Speaker 6: my brother donated one of his kidneys to me.

228
00:10:04,000 --> 00:10:08,040
Speaker 1: A legend. Brother, How do we gave up one of it?

229
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,800
Speaker 1: And so? Did he volunteer it? Or did you have

230
00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:13,880
Speaker 1: to sort of take him out for a few beers ago? Listen,

231
00:10:14,760 --> 00:10:17,199
Speaker 1: you know I need to borrow something. In fact, I'm

232
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:19,920
Speaker 1: not ever going to return it. But the kidney situation,

233
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:23,800
Speaker 1: oh come on please, is there no one else? Okay,

234
00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:25,439
Speaker 1: you can have the left one? No, I like the

235
00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:27,560
Speaker 1: left one? Which one you can have the right one?

236
00:10:27,840 --> 00:10:28,880
Speaker 1: Did he volunteer it?

237
00:10:29,520 --> 00:10:33,000
Speaker 6: He volunteered? But now I've got to take me up

238
00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:34,440
Speaker 6: for a few years or whatever he wants.

239
00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,400
Speaker 1: He's got that over you for live. Hey, come on,

240
00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:39,400
Speaker 1: you know I gave you a kidney.

241
00:10:40,200 --> 00:10:42,280
Speaker 6: But I'm a bit opposite to some of your other

242
00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:46,520
Speaker 6: cause because I actually just returned from competing in the

243
00:10:46,559 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 6: World Transplant Games. So I got stuck into my sport

244
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 6: after I had my transplant, and I was lucky enough

245
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,360
Speaker 6: to win four goals and two silvers and I was

246
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:57,079
Speaker 6: in Newcastle.

247
00:10:57,200 --> 00:10:57,840
Speaker 4: Just awesome.

248
00:10:58,080 --> 00:10:59,920
Speaker 1: What events are You don't even know there was a

249
00:11:00,080 --> 00:11:03,600
Speaker 1: World Transplant Games. This is incredible swimming.

250
00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:07,199
Speaker 6: So I ended up a year with three world records

251
00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:07,600
Speaker 6: as well.

252
00:11:07,679 --> 00:11:11,560
Speaker 1: So the Michael Phelps of the Transplant Games. That's some

253
00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,200
Speaker 1: hall there. So what do you decide Dan Ross too

254
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:15,920
Speaker 1: like it? Because you either you just embraced it and

255
00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:17,440
Speaker 1: you went for it, decided to own it and get

256
00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:17,840
Speaker 1: on with it.

257
00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:19,480
Speaker 6: That's it exactly.

258
00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:21,439
Speaker 4: And then does your brother take some of the credit

259
00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:22,920
Speaker 4: for the gold medals? Because I mean a bit of

260
00:11:22,960 --> 00:11:23,920
Speaker 4: it was him.

261
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 1: Year he gets one of the medals and he has
