1
00:00:00,680 --> 00:00:03,360
Speaker 1: New Jersey and Amanda jam Nation.

2
00:00:03,680 --> 00:00:05,840
Speaker 2: Well, if you can cast your mind back to the

3
00:00:05,880 --> 00:00:09,760
Speaker 2: early nineteen nineties and the name John Wayne Bobbitt was

4
00:00:09,880 --> 00:00:13,080
Speaker 2: known by everyone. You've often said this, Brendan, if someone

5
00:00:13,080 --> 00:00:14,520
Speaker 2: said you want your name on the front page of

6
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:16,320
Speaker 2: the paper, you think we'd be good or bad. But

7
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:18,760
Speaker 2: John Wayne Bobbitt, it's been a hell of a ride

8
00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:22,280
Speaker 2: in nineteen ninety three. Well, this happened.

9
00:00:22,680 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 3: They sprung up in a silence screen and holding myself

10
00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:27,000
Speaker 3: and I could stop bleeding.

11
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:30,680
Speaker 2: That was the moment John Barbitt realized his penis was

12
00:00:30,720 --> 00:00:31,280
Speaker 2: cut off.

13
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:34,800
Speaker 3: People talked about this story around the world.

14
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:37,880
Speaker 1: It was his wife had to be the sixth story

15
00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 1: after Bruce L. Lehman and some influencer finding a new

16
00:00:41,159 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 1: oatmek where this is new.

17
00:00:44,600 --> 00:00:47,199
Speaker 2: So his then wife, Lorena Bobbitt attacked him in his

18
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:50,479
Speaker 2: sleep and cut off part of his nether regions with

19
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 2: a kitchen knife. She threw it out of the window

20
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:56,800
Speaker 2: of the car. Remember this, Although they found it on

21
00:00:56,840 --> 00:01:00,240
Speaker 2: the side of the road and kind of managed to reattach.

22
00:00:59,880 --> 00:01:01,080
Speaker 3: You, oh goodness me.

23
00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:04,040
Speaker 1: At the time, I think it.

24
00:01:04,000 --> 00:01:06,120
Speaker 2: Was two nuns driving along because she threw this out

25
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:07,960
Speaker 2: the car window. There is a joke that there were

26
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:10,520
Speaker 2: two nuns driving along that lands on the front of

27
00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:12,320
Speaker 2: the window, and one of the nuns says, look at

28
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 2: the nether regions on that fly.

29
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:17,840
Speaker 1: Right. And there was another one about throwing at the

30
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:18,760
Speaker 1: eye carravean.

31
00:01:19,400 --> 00:01:24,240
Speaker 2: Anyway, this story, of course, went all over the world,

32
00:01:24,240 --> 00:01:27,520
Speaker 2: as they say, and what you normally do when something

33
00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:29,520
Speaker 2: like this happens to if you're John Wayne Bobbitt, is

34
00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 2: you pivot to become a porn star he made or

35
00:01:33,240 --> 00:01:34,399
Speaker 2: he divorced his wife.

36
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:36,840
Speaker 1: No, if they can't make it, who can? Why did

37
00:01:36,959 --> 00:01:38,039
Speaker 1: she chop it off? To begin with?

38
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 2: Well, she says there was a whole court case that

39
00:01:40,959 --> 00:01:46,000
Speaker 2: revolved around this. Her attorneys argued she was driven temporarily

40
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 2: insane by physical and sexual abuse by mister Bobbitt. He

41
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 2: was acquitted on charges of marital sexual assault in a

42
00:01:52,400 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 2: separate trial. So troubled times between the two of them.

43
00:01:56,200 --> 00:01:58,600
Speaker 2: So she chops off his willly chucks it out the window.

44
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,640
Speaker 2: They kind of well, they do reattach it. So he

45
00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 2: makes a pawn film. When I was working on Andrew

46
00:02:04,520 --> 00:02:07,080
Speaker 2: Denton's Tonight Show, I was asked to review this film,

47
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:10,080
Speaker 2: So I reviewed it in terms of the acting and

48
00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:13,720
Speaker 2: the furnishings, et cetera. But sitting through this film was horrendous.

49
00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,000
Speaker 2: Listening to him describe the film, you'd never know it

50
00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,239
Speaker 2: was a porn From his what John Wayne Bobbitt said

51
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:20,000
Speaker 2: the film was.

52
00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:23,440
Speaker 3: What's the storyline of this thing? Just basically on my

53
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 3: whole life? I mean, oh, background in before I got married,

54
00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:32,280
Speaker 3: and a little bit about my marriage, and then the

55
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:38,200
Speaker 3: attack and then the trials. Basically what happened, and basically

56
00:02:38,280 --> 00:02:42,040
Speaker 3: sure everybody that I'm healed and fully functional. I still

57
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:45,120
Speaker 3: can have sex and it doesn't leak. You know.

58
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:51,200
Speaker 1: That crooked I beg to different is crooked?

59
00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, the whole film, it's not the backstory, come on,

60
00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,919
Speaker 2: give me a break. Really, it is about him in hospital.

61
00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,320
Speaker 2: He keeps his underpants on the whole time. He gets

62
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:02,760
Speaker 2: the big reveal at the end, but the nurses just

63
00:03:02,760 --> 00:03:06,240
Speaker 2: find him so attractive they just can't help trying to

64
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 2: play with him through his underpants. Pretty much is what

65
00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,120
Speaker 2: the storyline is. And then at the end there's the

66
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:13,440
Speaker 2: disappointing reveal.

67
00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:16,280
Speaker 1: Nurses say that no, they go.

68
00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:19,880
Speaker 2: Wow, you're incredible. Please, that's the best acting anyone's ever done.

69
00:03:20,480 --> 00:03:24,040
Speaker 2: Well what's happened to him since is he's a construction worker.

70
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:27,079
Speaker 2: He stepped on a nail at a construction site, leading

71
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,600
Speaker 2: to a series of infections. Eventually, he got toxic peripheral

72
00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:34,360
Speaker 2: polyneuropathy that caused him to lose all ten of his toes.

73
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 2: He now walks using prosthetics, and he blames the contaminated

74
00:03:39,920 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 2: drinking water he says he drank while he was stationed

75
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:45,160
Speaker 2: with the Marine Corps in the eighties. He said that

76
00:03:45,360 --> 00:03:48,800
Speaker 2: contributed to his health issues and to his behavior while

77
00:03:48,800 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 2: he was married to Lorraina Bobbitt. He said, maybe I

78
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:54,600
Speaker 2: would have made better decisions if my cognitive functioning wasn't

79
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:57,800
Speaker 2: distorted by the chemicals. So I don't know if he's

80
00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,440
Speaker 2: gone back to working in construction, but he needs to

81
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:02,040
Speaker 2: see some new erections.

82
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:08,320
Speaker 1: Yeah, it was a long journey to a terrible joke.

83
00:04:10,880 --> 00:04:14,480
Speaker 1: I'm happy, happy now. Everyone wants that happy ending.
