Two Racists Go To A Football Match - The Wrap Up #44

00:00 Hello gang, it's Jonnie. Welcome to another episode of the Wrap Up Two dads wrapping up their week and having a laugh about everything that has gone right and wrong Roll theme! Welcome to Team Super Dad Real dads creating their best lives ever More time More money More fun You are not alone you're on Team Super Dad Good evening, Glen. How you doing? I am... well i've been better! I'm in mourning and my voice has decided to abandon me as much as it can. I can hear that. I can totally hear that. My voice is kind of okay but yeah mourning definitely a lot going on which we will get round to. Welcome to the Team Superdad Wrap Up this is

01:01 Fun side of our weekly podcast episodes, if you are listening or subscribed to the podcast then you would have seen my conversation with Stuart Roberts this week gone last week. Bloody brilliant bloke is he's got a book called Visibility but it wasn't like one of those press things oh can I come on the show because i've got a book now and he was chit-chatting another group in America And so we're going to have to remove LinkedIn. It says, if you are having trouble streaming today there may be an issue on it? We'll keep trying and let you know! Okay keep trying, that's fine...

01:37 That's good, isn't it? Perseverance. If in doubt keep going! Click on the icon again! He is a really good guy and you should check out that podcast episode if you haven't listened to it. And he's in the Team Superdad group which is a community of modern dads creating their best life ever and I'm going. What do you mean, you're going? And of course he was completely oblivious to what a shit husband he had been but he's fixed it all up and he's got this call book which is basically chunked out into how he bounced back and how he fix things up but he shared pictures in the Team Superdad group of this house that he's done a house swap with so he swapped his house in San Diego with someone whose house is in San Francisco

02:50 And he's just like having this epic holiday in San Francisco and he shared pictures of his house. He's like house-sitting, so it is just a good guy, good example of making things happen basically. So I really cool week talking to him that was one of the highlights if you're listening for the first time then welcome! If you're watching for the first time then you can see us live on most of the socials maybe not LinkedIn right now we're like the gatecrashers on Linkedin anyway Bringing down the tone somewhat, or maybe helping people on their commute home. So if you're on LinkedIn give us a little hello! We can see your comments from most of the channels coming in to the comments here and if you've got a good question or a really good put-down for Glen and I then feel free to share it and we can bring that in and have a bit of a laugh or answer your questions

03:44 But other than that, yeah! TeamSuperDad.com forward slash group and you can come in and be part of the community with us but this is what we do well every... We did it on a Friday now we do it on Monday which is much better because we get to talk about our weekends if we didn't do it on the Monday Glen we wouldn't be able share Exactly what watching the Euros final was like last night. Apologies I think to anyone who's not a sports fan or soccer fan, this could be football fan! This could be a little sport heavy tonight but also some political socio-economic commentary on the cretins that are some of the underbelly of this great British society that we live in

04:28 Shocking, shocking parts of that but we'll come around to that. I've also been inundated it seems with pictures of couples in hot tubs this weekend and no I haven't been on a swingers website again this is just my Facebook feed people's hot tubs have obviously arrived! I think its one of those weird things where I do like a good sex Paul But there's only so many times I want to see pictures of people in their sex ponds. Uh, uh...I like them but yeah i haven't got one and so maybe it's just unprofessional jealousy? Yeah maybe it is! Maybe it is. I mean there's a degree of it's arrived we've blown it up with sat in it where we're having a drink

05:14 But yeah, if you've got a hot tub right and I'm sure you love your hot tub. You're right Glen this could just be an outright jealousy thing basically And if we had one ourselves...I do actually have someone I can sit in with your pending on that. Alright rub it in! Rub it in! I'm not trying to rub it in It's more like an advert basically Although the phone calls for your Gareth Southgate tribute appearances might dry up a little bit now, the Euros has finished. Sorry about that! Yeah that's alright you know I still might once the dust has settled i'll put it on my Tinder profile again yeah I was due to actually be going on a date on Saturday but she totally ghosted me last week

06:04 and I called her out on it on Thursday, and it was just like you know if she's been chasing me for a while and we finally got the date set in the diary. You don't disappear! That's just not on... And then you can't disappear and then try to play the victim of oh I'm really busy and well you're the one who asked ME out! Come on! Step your game up Well, I got into a bit of a flipping trouble. I told you that...I think I shared this on the Wrap Up few weeks ago when someone was saying how this bloke was a weirdo because they were chatting on a dating app and then he went and found her like business page and messaged us through it And so yeah then you rightly said well that is a bit weird but i put the other perspective on it which was

06:51 He's really keen on you and instead of you saying, actually thanks for chatting I don't think we're compatible. You just blocked him and disappeared! In his optimistic kind of desperation he doesn't know whether you've accidentally clicked the wrong button or what so just say thanks but no thanks yeah people have got to get better at being honest about these sort of things it's not good enough to play games We're all too old for that So yeah, playing games. It's been a rip roaring despite the rain and the fact that it feels like we're in the autumn but it has been a rip roaring June and July because the Euros have been on. And getting to that final last night was

07:38 It was so bloody brilliant. It really was a moment because I spoke to my dad and he said, He goes, I can die now! You can die now! Because when it feels like you know... I watched the England final in 66 when i was about 20 something and we're in a final again because it feels like a good bookend. He says I can go out next week on a positive note Or A. You don't even know if you're going to win, and B I'd quite like to see a few more times after this week! Yeah yeah especially as he said I left it we'll be watching it on the record because they never make it past eight o'clock

08:21 I've not re-watched it yet. So we're recording this on the Monday and the match was played for some weird reason, eight o'clock on a Sunday night! I mean i don't understand why couldn't have been played a bit earlier in the day? Who knows? Or Saturday night or whatever... It's just crazy. Yeah, you had all week to get drunk basically. Yeah, I have not been very productive this morning I have been a lot more productive than my son. My son's 14 and last night, we let him have a couple of beers over the course of the football. He violently learned what the morning after entails he's not had a pleasant morning at all. I am in a lot of trouble with his mum for actually letting him have a couple of beers

09:13 I was going to say is that why you're in the doghouse with the ex? Okay. Oh well one of many reasons, i'm sure! That's the current reason that she thinks i'm a bad man and a bad father. I just figured he's 14 it's gonna be 15 soon and he's gonna get drunk at some point...I was probably about that age when my dad like got me drunk not got me drunk but I got drunk with my dad for Realistically, we might not see another final. It's been 55 years and I'm probably not going to be around in 55 years time so i want to just spend one night with my boy having a beer watching the football and if he's gonna get drunk that's a story that's a night for him to remember or not remember too well but yeah if you're gonna do it then do it for good reason

10:07 I totally validate you. You are free of any guilt or anything, any kind of poor feelings about this. If i was God or Judge Judy... Whatever the word is that I'm looking for, I don't know enough legal jargon words but I would find you innocent on all counts. Thank you, yeah it's weird i genuinely sometimes with these sort of things when the ex has a pop at me for saying something to the kids or like giving some advice or letting them do something sometimes i'm thinking has she got a point should i feel good? I have no regrets about this at all

10:46 Not a single one. I think there's plenty of people who are still together who have got in trouble for just such a thing now if you're going to be the... yeah, I agree 14 years old going on 15 not like he's 14 and 1 day He's 14 3 other days or whatever And yeah good! I say yes What was his? What was the beer what flavor? What make? The first two, because he had about three or four over the course of like an afternoon. The first two were Belgian cherry beers and then the last couple were Corona because that was just what we're cold in a ice bucket

11:29 Do you think it was the cherry beers or do you think it was the number of beers all together? I think, I think it's probably the number of beers. Okay. Bless him! He's only 14 and your body has got to learn how to do it and uh... It is weird though because in between him like being sick and all that sort of stuff he's absolutely bright and happy and sparky but then apparently he'll just go over and projectile and then be like back home fine. I know only four years old Right, so I agree. When it... What's that? I remember for, I don't remember very much about last night Okay So the first time and here is the thing they say the ball rolls down the hill you know The first time he has a beer with his boy He will share the story of how England and the final and Euros which were from 2020 but actually played in 2021 And my dad got in trouble It's good Yeah building up

12:26 Building up a mythology. Yes, the legacy yeah totally Darth Vader all that stuff So obviously, yeah. Well I was there with my boy Rosie the daughter she's kind of checking out of football a little bit now if she really if she can't get excited for EUROs final after five years of her then I think we are starting to get an idea of where her future attitude towards football... She is supportive more than interested it would be

13:04 But when we scored the first goal in the first two minutes, I launched out of the seat. So Paul my friend and I and Jago pretty much ended up in a bundle on the floor it was first of all a cheering up-and-down celebration jumping and then there's something...I think the dog got in the way? And then next thing you know where weird like kind of sort of on the floor they got up! Then I'm hugging Joe And then obviously as a Spurs fan, you're like oh we've scored way too early. Yeah we don't want to be sitting back for 90 minutes! Oh man, I don't think it was a bad match. It was a decent match. It was a tense match obviously but as it's...I can't begrudge the Italians the victory they for the whole tournament they've been the best team and there are when you look at Chiellini their captain I've heard him that people say he looks like a Roman legionary He really does and he just seems like a lovely fella. So nice! The way he was

14:09 The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, The Jonnie Jensen Show, But they also, there just seems to be this generation of footballers that are just nice. Nice people! And I'm so so sad about the fact that... I mean Sancho not many in the UK know too much about but Sacca has been such a lovely kid and Rashford obviously is a legend for those two to have missed. I don't think they're going to be vilified in the same way Southgate himself was all those years ago There's gonna be no Pizza Hut adverts at any point

15:10 Yeah, so basically for those who live under a rock or you could be in America and not have a clue what we're talking about. The game went into overtime! No the game went into extra time and still a draw at the end of that so then it goes into penalties each team takes five penalties and three of the players from England that took penalties were black guys and combination... none of them missed I think they all got saved oh no Rashford hit the post And the flipping Twittersphere is blown up with, well in fact not just Twitter. Marcus Rashford had some murial of him because he's been doing you know looking out for the kids for the last year during lockdown and they had some mural defaced that they've got to go and cover up as well So I just my mind...I just can't get my head around how in 2021 we can be dealing with

16:07 the The only good part about this being on social media is the fact that it can be tracked down. Now, not always there is still anonymous stuff that happens but if they put something out there it can be traced to them and these racist scumbags can be taken down and get in proper legal trouble for it...and they should! Absolutely should! If I knew someone I'd shop him tomorrow Yeah, it should be. Do you know these people? Well and the same with Leicester Square in my mind I'm like okay well the racist people must be older generation they must be like people that are out of touch people maybe even our age middle-aged blokes who could got no flipping

16:59 The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, It's so sad, it is so sad. You kind of think we should have moved past this by now? We absolutely should have! I thought we had for a long time but... But I don't know what it is about these people who then undo all the good work of all the England fans that have been doing so well and being so positive about things you get this small minority who aren't footballers they're just thugs who use football as an excuse for this tribalism to just attack and cause havoc because they are dickheads

17:44 Yeah, dickheads. You want to see something happen as a result of it somehow some way but without getting too political like our civil liberties can be affected By like, because now we've got more CCTV you're gonna have things that are tracking you everywhere. You're going to have to put a passport into open a Twitter account and you can have to do all these things so that means that we're more and more tracked and monitored but because it's those kind of absolute cretins that can't work out how can you get your phone out after we've lost and be like

18:29 The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, Wow man, yeah great. So if you are a racist bastard and you want to explain what the hell's going on then by all means come like flipping comment now and let Leo give us some grief I don't know my mind boggles as to what the hell do you think is going on in the world so But putting that aside, I mean it's not easy to put aside because it's a ridiculous issue but just to go back to kind of the tournament in general... Lovely.

19:11 Really fun tournament, really good football and it did a lot. It's something to look forward to every day and not only did I enjoy the football but also profited off it Me and some friends were doing some betting kind of put we had a... You were down! Halfway through you were down? We were down, we were down and then around the semi-finals time it all went up And even though we lost The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, The Jonnie Jensen Show, The Jonnie Jensen Show,

19:52 That's bloody brilliant. I thought, this is why i don't bet right so because I didn't actually put the bet on but in my mind I had a bet which was England beat Italy in the final Harry Kane wins The Golden Boot oh he scores in the final and wins The Golden Boot that would have been good yeah and it also would have been me losing money Yeah, but it's rare that we end up beating the bookies. We do it every now and then so yeah, It feels like there has been a little bit of victory on that anyway we're going to spend the money on or going out together somewhere. Going out and let's just go throw some bottles at some police! But what about... I love this is for me was talking about families today in our kids and you shared at the beginning Elizabeth your 14 year old but it's just at our age because

20:44 Back in the day, 1996 it was all like uni, beers, carnage. I'm glad we didn't chuck beer in the air back then! Is that a waste of beer? No, it's a waste of beer. I can understand it if it's an involuntary thing... If you absolutely lose it but I've seen people who have like a beer to hand ready and as soon as they look like grab the beer because they're gonna want what's the f- That means thats five six quids worth of beer! Use water! This is my goal beer this is my drinking beer. Ridiculous guys I'm

21:36 And some of it is just a very expensive shower, basically. Yeah? Ah these people are idiots! But yeah the whole family vibe just creating memories bit like my dad was saying about you know he said oh I watched I watched 66 final out because i was at work and and I the guy we got on all of us got on well at work so we had a tv out the back and that's how I was actually at work Jon Liddell's something car garage or something basically. And so in the same way you're 14, he's got that memory now me and my boy Jay go through since he was three four and all the trials and tribulations we've been through there sport and hanging out sitting on the couch or going to the match

22:24 Talking about what went on, who was right and who was wrong. These are our magic moments I love that side of it with our kids And if not for my daughter and her dancing Just making time... People are like oh I'm going to watch the match with my kids at the pub That's what they want to choose to do but If your kid really doesn't like football then fair dues For me, that memory is hanging out with my kids and sharing my interests with them or having a brilliant day watching them dance.

23:05 That's what we're going to celebrate. Yeah, I was so happy... So my ex had the kids at the weekend and I know she wouldn't have let me have them but my sister just stepped in she said look we really want to watch it as a family My brother and his kids were coming around She was there with her kids and so on and managed to get them together And other than if our last minute ticket come up for a couple of grand I had Uber ready to go But other than that There's nowhere else I'd rather have been than with my kids. So, Black Widow the Marvel movie came out last week and every time a Marvel movie comes out take my kids to see it

23:45 In the cinema it's become like a little tradition with us in terms of all the Marvel stuff. So last week for the first time in years went off to the cinema, watched Black Widow and just spent that time again just going back to something that we all love and just doing that again. It was so nice to do! Did you go to The Big One at Bluewater? Where did you go? No, just Rochester. There's a Cineworld in Rochester which is really nice so I grabbed the McDonalds went and ate the McDonalds inside the cinema and just enjoyed it spent time there was hardly anyone else around as well it was so nice. Yeah, I love it. Cinema has always been a bit of a linchpin family thing in my family as well when I was kids

24:27 In Chicago, it's going to sound like we're in the 1930s or something but it really was the 1980s-1990s. So some days it would be insanely hot right and so the best air conditioning around obviously was in the cinema and my auntie Gladys she at the time would have been late 80s And then so we would go and catch a mid morning movie and then when the movie finished Go and just wander around and loiter, then sneak our way into another one. She was always like no-one's ever going to stop an old lady! So yeah, maximising the grey area basically. I love it

25:18 Go on. The one thing that I've loved, Marvel has started doing some really good movie soundtracks as well putting together Guardians of the Galaxy one of the best soundtracks of any movie that i've seen and it got me thinking and I was a drunk bought myself Reservoir Dogs which is also one of the best soundtracks yeah man it's amazing I mean it's ridiculous look at So it's a box that is coming, massive, massive box to do it rather than a little slip. It's the Amazon! But this has got be top Reservoir Dogs Top 10 movie soundtrack album of all time along with Guardians Of The Galaxy, Pulp Fiction Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels you know there are just a few soundtracks which they work in and of their own right as well The unofficial soundtrack

26:14 for The Big Lebowski. Ah, interesting! Because the official soundtrack they couldn't get whatever the permission or the rights would cost too much money to have all the songs that they wanted but there's songs that are in the movie so if you go on Spotify and search up Lebowski soundtrack or The Big Lebowski Soundtrack people have put the songs from the movie in chronological order into a playlist it's bloody brilliant Some of the Spike Lee movies have got good soundtracks obviously. Do the right thing! That is a good soundtrack. A good soundtrack to me has like an audio palette so you could know, like the Guardian stuff for volume 1 and 2 and there's loads of unreleased stuff he released as an extra playlist last year every song on it obviously they're totally different artists different eras different styles but they all sound like they're from the same thing

27:12 And for me a good album soundtrack, movie soundtrack they all sound combined in some way and they work together even if they are vastly different styles. The Matrix the original Matrix soundtrack it It's all kind of slightly aggressive and pacey, there is a mix of metallic electronic sounds and guitars but it works brilliantly altogether. I'd love that would be a dream job putting together a soundtrack for a movie, I think that would be awesome! It's like a proper, well done quality mixtape. Obviously the Blues Brothers one is good.

27:58 What's the movie where John Cusack runs a record shop? That is another good soundtrack. High Fidelity. Good, Glen! We have started a thing. Team Superdad Crew let us know your top movie soundtracks and Yeah, there's a bunch of them. Goddamn racists! Hate them xenophobes! Ironically I want to kick the xenophobes out of my country. Oh that is good. That's like one those ironic t-shirts yeah. Xenophobes go home? Yeah. I told you...I don't think i mentioned it on the pod about my neighbour who called me and told my Indian other neighbour to go back where he came from

29:13 And so the Indian, who's a top bloke. He is Indian and his wife is Portuguese and they're both just... It doesn't matter that they are both lovely because where they come from like they're just neighbours like it's good guys right? So the old neighbour who bless him I do go have cups of coffee with him because apparently seemingly no one else does And he's like 87, 86. So how you slip this into conversation or whether you just start it off with this? He said you need to go home and so the Indian neighbor said something along the lines of I'll cut your fucking head off! Then the old guy reports him to the police and so the Indian guy gets put on like a low-level terrorist lid

30:01 So I'm joking with him. I said, I said, Oi! I'm not going to mention his name. Did you tell... what's his name? You're gonna cut his fucking head off and he goes yeah, he goes Yeah I did because it just kind of came out He said it, you know, I couldn't believe what he said to me and it was kinda in a bit of sort God. I just, yeah. I always struggle when people say racist stuff like that you should go back home or whatever because it's just...I really struggle to keep my mouth shut and i usually don't Well I say, you know, I don't just ignore it. I'm like Jon, you do know they're probably... I said he's probably dad was born here what are you talking about let alone him? And the same thing and I was like John you do

31:09 The Jonnie Jensen Show, Jonnie Jensen, So Glen, we're supposed to be exhausted after last night's fun and games. We're going to keep this one a little bit short and sweet. That works for me! I'm gonna go put an album on turn my PlayStation on for a bit. My new Playstation 5 which Jonnie helped me get. Come on before we go. Absolutely chuffed with it

31:52 I love that Twitter chat that happened today. It didn't even occur to me like, we were actually in a shop buying something over the counter okay granted we were both wearing face masks yours was particularly industrial and Glen's erring on the side of caution with that facemask! Hey if you're gonna do a job do it properly hey? Actually point well made actually yeah but actually apart from I'm handing over some cash. Okay, you still beeped it but no it's good! It was a good shop counter purchase actually holding the item coming out of the shop with the huge grin on your face heading home to plug into the new PlayStation. How did it go down? Both as a boys toy for you and when the kids saw it? Well kids haven't seen it yet they've not been home so

32:43 So what I've done is set it all up so make sure it works and plugged in and setup. And I'm just going to leave it there, and see how many seconds it takes for them to notice because they will be a fractions of seconds cuz it's a gadget type thing and it's very different the old one was also a little black unit and I'll call kind of a black TV stand. This is a white thing massive absolutely massive compared to the old one So yeah, it will take moments to notice but they're gonna love it. I haven't got any PlayStation 5 games yet. I've downloaded Fallout Shelter or something like that but I'm not a massive gamer but I just quite like having it there...I just like it! It's alright

33:25 I agree. So if anyone's got any suggestions for PlayStation 5 games that don't require decades of practice to start getting good at, then hit me up! Possibly also that you could have some family fun with as well? Even better Yeah yeah good good We will be back next Monday for the wrap-up Be sure to share this subscribe Bring a friend, bring a friend. I've got a couple in the can for the midweek podcast.
