0:00:57.400 --> 0:01:00.440
<v Speaker 1>is a human shield?

0:01:00.640 --> 0:01:01.000
<v Speaker 2>Please?

0:01:02.560 --> 0:01:05.720
<v Speaker 3>You know my son socally stopped you dead in your

0:01:05.720 --> 0:01:06.440
<v Speaker 3>flow and try it.

0:01:06.360 --> 0:01:07.679
<v Speaker 1>Brought unnecessary information.

0:01:08.040 --> 0:01:11.160
<v Speaker 2>That is my dad, that's my relationship my dad. That's

0:01:11.200 --> 0:01:11.600
<v Speaker 2>a kid.

0:01:12.160 --> 0:01:13.880
<v Speaker 1>You'd be like if you're gone, I know your mother

0:01:13.959 --> 0:01:17.199
<v Speaker 1>and I go, she's not here. This isn't helping the show.

0:01:17.640 --> 0:01:21.080
<v Speaker 3>I know you turned fifty last year. I hit fifty

0:01:21.160 --> 0:01:23.319
<v Speaker 3>this year. How are your fifties treating you?

0:01:23.560 --> 0:01:25.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm okay with fifty. I mean I liked fifty as

0:01:25.720 --> 0:01:28.040
<v Speaker 1>a number because there's a solid yes, yeah, it's an

0:01:28.040 --> 0:01:31.560
<v Speaker 1>Innings forty. It stopped me having a party, and the

0:01:31.840 --> 0:01:33.400
<v Speaker 1>COVID thing because of the timing of us meant we

0:01:33.440 --> 0:01:35.440
<v Speaker 1>could have a bash. Because I really want to make

0:01:35.440 --> 0:01:37.320
<v Speaker 1>a speech of fifty, because I think the speech of

0:01:37.360 --> 0:01:41.200
<v Speaker 1>fifty is probably the last unconditionally great speech you can make.

0:01:41.760 --> 0:01:42.920
<v Speaker 1>Because the speech is sixty.

0:01:43.000 --> 0:01:44.400
<v Speaker 2>What's what's going to happen at sixty?

0:01:44.440 --> 0:01:48.440
<v Speaker 1>Somewhere at some point you're turning to a different woman

0:01:48.480 --> 0:01:50.400
<v Speaker 1>and going, hey, just wanted to hank you, you know,

0:01:51.280 --> 0:01:53.400
<v Speaker 1>I want to. I want to think that Roras has

0:01:53.400 --> 0:01:56.240
<v Speaker 1>been with meting some difficult times, you know, but I

0:01:56.240 --> 0:01:58.840
<v Speaker 1>think fifty is the last clear it's all been great.

0:01:58.960 --> 0:02:02.120
<v Speaker 1>Can we just count bank, So tell me about the

0:02:02.160 --> 0:02:02.559
<v Speaker 1>new show.

0:02:02.600 --> 0:02:03.040
<v Speaker 2>Then you're.

0:02:04.840 --> 0:02:07.120
<v Speaker 1>The show is actually show's got a story to it.

0:02:07.160 --> 0:02:08.480
<v Speaker 1>The show's got a real kind of a bit of

0:02:08.520 --> 0:02:10.360
<v Speaker 1>a hard to other thing to it because normally come

0:02:10.400 --> 0:02:12.320

0:02:12.320 --> 0:02:13.240
<v Speaker 1>funny and there's loads of that.

0:02:13.560 --> 0:02:14.919

0:02:14.960 --> 0:02:16.839
<v Speaker 3>bang bang bang with the funny, funny, funny.

0:02:17.080 --> 0:02:20.200
<v Speaker 1>Musical, honestly, because this one has a kind of a

0:02:20.800 --> 0:02:22.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, there's a bit of a kind of emotional

0:02:22.520 --> 0:02:24.880
<v Speaker 1>thing with Dli. The family story. It's an adoption story

0:02:25.000 --> 0:02:25.480
<v Speaker 1>to finding.

0:02:25.800 --> 0:02:27.920
<v Speaker 2>So you are you now talking about that? I know

0:02:27.919 --> 0:02:28.600
<v Speaker 2>you're talking about that.

0:02:29.040 --> 0:02:31.959
<v Speaker 1>And it turned out to be when I did the

0:02:32.000 --> 0:02:34.720
<v Speaker 1>whole thing trying to be an amazing story, these little

0:02:34.720 --> 0:02:36.560
<v Speaker 1>weird twists and stuff like that, like there, and so

0:02:36.560 --> 0:02:38.640
<v Speaker 1>it trying to be really interesting to do this because.

0:02:38.360 --> 0:02:40.560
<v Speaker 3>So if people don't know anything about it, you just

0:02:40.560 --> 0:02:42.960
<v Speaker 3>southing amazing. Is it going to give anything away from

0:02:42.960 --> 0:02:43.280
<v Speaker 3>the show?

0:02:43.639 --> 0:02:45.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, let me hold back the thing from within it.

0:02:45.960 --> 0:02:48.120
<v Speaker 1>But like I did do the search for all that, like.

0:02:48.240 --> 0:02:50.240
<v Speaker 2>And they're going to wonder what you're searching for, the

0:02:50.280 --> 0:02:51.240
<v Speaker 2>search for cant.

0:02:51.360 --> 0:02:54.440
<v Speaker 1>No no, for myself. I turned out I was there

0:02:54.440 --> 0:02:57.080
<v Speaker 1>all along. It was for for my birth mother.

0:02:57.360 --> 0:02:59.040
<v Speaker 2>And what made you do it? Was it turning a

<v Speaker 2>certain age or heading stain angel?

0:03:00.639 --> 0:03:02.799

<v Speaker 1>find out your biological mother's version of the story. Yeah, no,

0:03:13.720 --> 0:03:16.120
