Speaker 3: I don't know something was oh here, I guess this
Speaker 3: is this is gonna be it a BT Sport freelance
Speaker 3: one two Okay, let's see what we got here. So yes,
Speaker 3: it's an old work pass for the old BT Sports
Speaker 3: studios in London. I'm a freelance camera operator getting worked
Speaker 3: there until it's closure in twenty twenty three. Wow. I
Speaker 3: was a huge fan of the hilarious emails you'd read
Speaker 3: out with all the comments about the sport of kings
Speaker 3: on the BT Sport Facebook page. Let me just say, wow,
Speaker 3: those comments are exactly the same from people who worked there.
Speaker 3: Is that right as you walked into the studio building,
Speaker 3: there was TV screens showing what was on the various
Speaker 3: BT Sports channels, and if w was on at any point,
Speaker 3: people walking past would be laughing, aha or shaking their
Speaker 3: heads in disgust. So they're watching they put wrestling on there,
Speaker 3: and they're embarrassed, appalled, appalled.
Speaker 1: So BT Sport is a British sports television station that
Speaker 1: also airs wrestling, and of course the Brits don't take
Speaker 1: too kindly to phony wrestling being put on a real
Speaker 1: sports channel. So what we've often joked about that, and
Speaker 1: this gentleman sent us used to work at the station
Speaker 1: this was then he can confirm that, in fact, in
Speaker 1: the offices they would laugh at wrestling, just like we suspect.
Speaker 3: I've heard I've heard comments. This is a quote here,
Speaker 3: all right. I've heard comments from work colleagues such as,
Speaker 3: why are we showing that fucking shite? I can't believe
Speaker 3: we have this bollocks on our channel, and this is
Speaker 3: such nonsense.
Speaker 1: This is the greatest thing I've ever seen.
Speaker 3: I worked mostly on BT Sports Premier League football, and
Speaker 3: when a big w W pay per view such as
Speaker 3: The Mains was approaching, the football presenters would be forced
Speaker 3: to promote them on air and with contempt and sarcasm.
Speaker 3: When we'd be off the off the air, the presenter
Speaker 3: would describe it as fake rubbish while saying the famous
Speaker 3: phrase why is this on a sports channel? Also calling
Speaker 3: it absolute twaddle? Thanks again, boys for the ten years
Speaker 3: of shame and pain. It's been a rough old year
Speaker 3: for me with a newborn daughter who has been in hospital,
Speaker 3: oh god, a lot, and has been has an upcoming surgery,
Speaker 3: but having you lads in my ears has kept me
Speaker 3: going at times. Here's the next ten years of TLF
Speaker 3: all the best.
Speaker 1: Mark here here Mark, so we're here.
Speaker 3: Wow, what have we got here? We get Tony's chocoloney
Speaker 3: chocaloney brother, what it sounds like a wrestling This sounds
Speaker 3: like a Carni way of saying chocolate sea salt. Uh
Speaker 3: yeah uh one two chocoaloney exactly, sea salt, milk, milk caramel. I.
Speaker 3: Guess is the kind out here is? Here's the diarrhea

Speaker 3: pear drops, let me see those?
Speaker 1: Oh there like laws anges almost.
Speaker 3: And yeah sure? And then jelly babies.
Speaker 1: Jellybabes as he does too, inspired by a traditional sweet
Speaker 1: shop recipe, soft and fruity Tesco jelly babies, the pair
Speaker 1: drops say do you remember being a kid in a
Speaker 1: sweet shop? For over one and twenty five years at Bonds,
Speaker 1: we have developed our sweet shop favorite longe to recapture
Speaker 1: those memories and inspire new ones. Would you like to

Speaker 1: please feel free to switch out. What do you think?
Speaker 3: Pretty? Your him? Gross? It gross? You're yeah, there is
Speaker 3: a weird crunch to it. Let's see here. Why is
Speaker 3: our bar unequally divided? To us? It doesn't make sense
Speaker 3: for chocolate bars. We divide it into chunks of equal size.
Speaker 3: When there is so much inequality in the chocolate industry. Wow,
Speaker 3: so they celebrate, they celebrate inequality.
Speaker 1: Is that the word?
Speaker 3: Yeah? They said, When there's so much inequality in the
Speaker 3: chocolate industry. Evenly sized chunks of our one eighty grand
Speaker 3: bars are a nice way of reminding our choco fans
Speaker 3: that the profits in the chocolate industry are unfairly divided.
Speaker 1: Are you serious right now, Bernie Sanders Chocolate? They purposely
Speaker 1: make each piece of different size to talk about. Yeah,
Speaker 1: what do you think is? It's pretty good, isn't it?
Speaker 1: It is? I like the a pair drop. Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: that's that's different. It is it is loss is going
Speaker 1: to get a zip of some water and we're going
Speaker 1: to see you next time, and just h all the
Speaker 1: things over to jolly old England Mark. Great, great package
Speaker 1: of different things we otherwise would never try. Especially it's
Speaker 1: great to get to know listeners in that way.
