This is a Global Player Original podcast.

Welcome. Thank you as always for lending us your ears. This is the Restless Native podcast, and you're very welcome to ride on the back of our motorbike as always. As we thunder towards Christmas

2024 after more than 100 main episodes, the same again on the bonus boss, two live

shows from the Edinburgh Festival, Vegas, Parshard, Glasgow and Manchester recordings and some

incredible guests. We've finally booked the great man who provided the inspiration

for our antics. As we always like to remind you, this is not a football podcast, but today's guest

hails from Edinburgh and supports the team who were first to wear the green from the north side

of the city. As a young man, he wrote a brilliant book about two young lads who were down on their

luck and hatched a cunning plan to make a few quid on the side. Those words became a screenplay which won a competition and became a cult

Scottish movie. The clown, the wolfman, Margo and a motorbike became symbols of Scottish mischief.

Today we are bringing you the man behind it all. It's taken us a while to book him but we've

finally done it. All three of us in the same room. He is the inspiration for this podcast. He is a great man and has become a dear friend. And we have

exciting news to bring about the clown and the wolf riding again. Please welcome the lovely

and any and done it. Welcome, no. Yeah. I'm not worthy. I'm not worthy. You are worthy. A smashed

show called Restless Natives inspired by the clown and the wolfman.

I mean, I am here to pay tribute to your madness.

Oh, no, Nane. It's so good to finally get you in. We've taken it, you know, pinning us all down in the same room is a hard thing, but we've finally done it and I think we should probably start because you bring incredibly exciting news for the

listeners who have all become restless nata of fish and aides over the last two years but something

is brewing in the hills well it's true I am breaking news I've come hot food I've battled through

storm Bertie and I'm here to tell you that I was up to some mischief on Friday night

in the fine city of Perth.

And the mischief was basically we hijacked a Big Country concert.
