Speaker 1:

My brothers, my sisters, my friends, the great gift of your applause is not for me now. It is for yourselves. I came today because of a craving and a knowledge that the old ways serve us no longer. You came today because you crave something new, something different.

Speaker 2:

Hello, welcome back. This is the Team Wingit podcast and I'm your host, dave Mulligan. Now we're up to episode six of this nonsense and at the moment I'm having a little bit of a dilemma. The technology in my house is packing up on me, not packing up, just doing stupid shit. So for the last week and a bit my main has been just, I can make videos, but they just won't save. Halfway through the buffering, the saving, the, the process, they just stop and won't continue, won't come up with an error, anything, it just won't fucking move. So I have about three or four videos in the works and I'm still trying to figure out why this will not happen. So then I had a bright idea I am going to move the videos to my laptop and I will finish them there.

Speaker 2:

Now, here lies my other problem. The laptop decided nope, we do not want to connect to the internet. I've tried everything I know possible, to the point where I actually connected it to the modem via one of those blue ethernet cables just to make sure. Nope, for some reason it was still being a complete fucking turd. So I can make the videos on the laptop and then transfer them to the main computer via usb or something and then put them on the internet that way. But it just seems like a whole lot of messing around and for someone who's so fucking time poor as myself it's not a very productive way of doing it, considering I'm not the best at time management and getting all this shit together. And the problem with all of this was that I wanted to get the videos off the main computer to the laptop so I could finish them, but because they wouldn't save, I couldn't do it. So if I want to do these videos I have to start all over again. So anything editing I've done so far has just gone straight down the toilet.

Speaker 2:

Ah, fuck All right, I'm thinking about ever being annoyed about that now, so let's get on with it, shall we?

Speaker 1:

People think that because I wear glasses that I'm automatically smart. I failed a fucking eye test and the answers are in front of me. Lower your expectations.

Speaker 2:

Now talking about getting angry and annoyed at things. As I was sorting out my computer, or trying to, I went through an old hard drive of mine too and I found the first edition, or the first lot, of Morgan's Meltdown podcast. I did is back when I was living at Lillydale with Karen and Jordan and Josh. Wow, I don't know if any of you people listened to that way back in the day. Well, I don't know, maybe six, seven years ago not, maybe not as way back in the day as I thought. But yes, I was quite the angry little gerbil at that point. I was just publicly bashing anyone and everything.

Speaker 2:

I was saying some horrible things about people. Most of them were deserved because I'd listened to it and I'm like, yeah, there were a couple of things I'm like, well, even I think I went a bit too far on that. But at the time I thought, nah, fuck it, everyone needs to hear this. And fuck you and fuck you, and fuck you and everyone that looks like you, and blah, blah. So, yes, wow, and the fact that I was putting that up publicly and did not give a shit, that's what amazed me the most.

Speaker 2:

I'm like, oh, I really had zero fuckers to give at this point. So let's face it, that whole situation was sending me nuttier than squirrel shit, so I guess I had every right just to go fucking rant, rant, rant, rant, rant. Everyone needs to hear my opinion, which not that many listen to it anyway, but same as this, but I still like doing this, so I don't care. But yeah, I'm like, wow, I've listened to that and I'm going oh boy, I'm glad I've managed to take that shit down. Yeah, there was some rather nasty shit on there. Still stand by most of it, really do. But there was a few things that I'm like in this PC woke world. Now, boy, if I was popular, I would have been cancelled like shit by now.

Speaker 1:

I just need you to shut the fuck up cause nobody asks you, bitch, I need you to shut the fuck up, bitch. Shut the fuck up bitch.

Speaker 2:

Just shut the fuck up bitch. Shut the fuck up bitch.

Speaker 1:

Bow bow, shut the fuck up, shut the fuck up bow, bow shut.

Speaker 2:

Now, as I say this, it's Thursday, the 15th of May. I'm doing this all this afternoon putting it together, hopefully, and not tomorrow night, but next Friday I have my next wrestling show and the great Muta from Japan is coming out and Bucket Guy Jing which means stupid foreigner and Japanese are coming out. Madman Pondo and Dale Patrick. They're defending their BJW tag team championship in a hardcore match against Cracker Jack and Pondo and Dale Patrick. They're defending their BJW Tag Team Championship in a hardcore match against Cracker Jack and Adam Brooks. And there's a whole bunch of other matches going on. So I'm looking forward to this. It's going to be fun.

Speaker 2:

I've been trying to put on weight because I dropped down to 72 kilos 71 kilos and I thought, holy shit, I need to put on a bit more beef in case they decide to squish me. So that's been a bit of a challenge, a bit of an effort, but that's all right. Oh, I'm talking about wrestling. One of my very favourite wrestlers well, that I got to referee passed away on Monday Probably drugs, alcohol, injuries, packed up all sorts of shit. He was 60 years old and I refereed him in a match with Mad Dog where they took down the ropes and put up barbed wire. Trust me, I have the photos. I've seen the video. It actually happened.

Speaker 2:

People do this stupid shit and I'm there in the middle with them. Why? Because, well, everyone needs a hobby, I guess, and my hobby is hanging out with people who decide to hurt themselves and each other and do stupid shit because it's fun. Because anyone that's known me for any length of time knows I've always liked wrestling. I've been refereeing for 22 years, so you know what these things happen. I get caught up in this sort of crazy world. Yeah, so I'm enjoying it. So I'm looking forward to next Friday. That's where I was going with all this, so it's in Burtwood. I'm probably going to post something on Facebook at some point.

Speaker 1:

But, yeah.

Speaker 2:

So if you're all interested, come along. So I've got a new video while I'm trying to get done. If my shitty computer wouldn't fuck things up on me and refuse to save shit and do things, and now that I've gone back and looked at it it's also deleted the sound off the video. So even if I wanted to, I would have to go back and re-upload the whole fucking thing, start all over again, shit. But the whole idea of this video is now a friend of mine when I first started the whole Team Wing it podcast. He's like what's with the whole Team Wing it? Are you guys just going to eat wings and judge them? No, that was never the fucking point. It was, you know, just winging it. Anything could happen.

Speaker 2:

But I was driving around the other night and I got hungry and I went. You know what? There's a KFC. They sell wings. I could do a video on that, because I haven't done a video in a while, because how shitty last month was and I'm off to a fucking slow start again this month because I keep getting thoroughly distracted. But that's on me, because I do have time to myself and then I just do stupid shit like sit down and play on social media all day, which I should not do. I need to be a little bit more motivated.

Speaker 2:

But anyway, as I was saying, back to the point the point. There was a point, I swear to God. There was a point. Ah, wings, that's right. So, yes, I'm making a video. Team Wing it now with more wings. So, every now and again, if I find a place that sells wings, I'm gonna buy wings and judge their wings, just because, well, it's just something different. Team wing it now with more wings. Yeah, I could deal with that. It's not gonna be a regular thing because, to tell you the truth, I'm not a massive fan. But you know what? Just for something a little different. Why the hell not? So, yeah, when my computer stops crapping out on me and doing stupid shit like deleting the sound and saving stuff once in a while, yeah, you will expect a new video, as well as the other videos I have planned somewhere.

Speaker 1:

Here is a reminder from the American Medical Association Don't pour sulfuric acid on your genitals.

Speaker 2:

Well, we're already over the 10-minute mark. This is where I normally like to end things and I had something else I was going to do, but I guess I'll save that for the next episode, because it was going to be Now. Back on the Morgan's Meltdowndown youtube stuff, there was a video I did I was trying I think it was a wild turkey honey and I had scratches on my head and it looks like cuts and all this sort of stuff and I said it was part of an epic tale that I will tell one day and I thought what better place, why not? So I was going to do that, but I'll save that for the next episode. So it will come. And since we're running long, let's just end it right here now.

Speaker 2:

The song I picked today which I found on TikTok, I believe it was, I think I can't remember where I find half this shit, but it was the Miley Cyrus song, flowers, if it was written by a man. So just remember, I didn't write it, I just found it funny and wanted to share it, all right, so I hope you all enjoy it as much as I do. I hope it brought a few laughs and, yeah, hopefully the next episode doesn't take two weeks to get here, but now it may. It'll take three, who knows. All right, I will catch you all later.

Speaker 1:

This is Miley Cyrus' Flowers. If it were written by a man. We were good, we were gold Kind of dream that can't be sold. We were right till we weren't built a home and watched it burn. I didn't want to leave you, I didn't want to lie, started to cry but then remembered I can pull my dick in the shower.

Speaker 2:

Eat a kilo of ham. Yeah Play.

Speaker 1:

Call of Duty for hours, never see your mother again. Enjoy a peaceful weekend Without your plans. Yeah, no more eating cheese boards with your friends.
