| 0:00.0 | Hello there, welcome to a brand new R-Splug R-SKAS right here on R-Splug.com. |
| 0:26.7 | How are you? We're heading into the second last weekend of the season. Where the hell is the time gone? Come on! |
| 0:34.1 | Seriously, anyway, I've got a beer, I'm sitting here, I've got a beer, I'm spending about the last five minutes watching a live stream of puppies on the Jimmy Fallon Facebook page. |
| 0:46.3 | I don't know if we can hear this. That's it going. Here they are. |
| 0:52.7 | Little Labrador puppies. He's got them for some prediction game. Puppy predictors dressing room and there's a lab puppies all scrumpling around doing mad puppy things. |
| 1:03.7 | And I'm thinking I'd like that. I want a swarm of puppies to do a prediction game. I don't even care what the prediction is. |
| 1:11.0 | When's the end of the world? When it's Phil Collins going to release another one? I don't care. But if I can use puppies to do the predictions then I'm well on for it. |
| 1:19.8 | So anyone out there who's got like a load of spare puppies that they want to lend me and I do mean lend because one dog is enough for me right at this moment in time. |
| 1:28.9 | If I were to hit the jackpot and retire like with the lottery or something I would most definitely have more than one dog because I'd have a big house with a big garden and I would fill it with dogs and puppies. |
| 1:41.7 | And just keep adding puppy because when the puppies grow up they become dogs. And I love dogs but they're not as good as puppies. |
| 1:48.6 | That's the that's the harsh reality of the situation. Actually that's a lie. Dogs are kind of better when they do grow up and they stop wing on the carpet and all that kind of stuff. But look, look at them. They're all buying each other's tails. |
| 2:01.4 | This is awesome. There's about eight or ten of them just all bundling about. This is brilliant. I might just do live commentary. Now they're jumping. Oh my goodness. One guy just jumped onto the head of the other guy. |
| 2:14.0 | He's essentially tea bagged him. But puppies don't care about that. Do they know they'll stick their snouts and balls everywhere. They don't really have any balls. I don't know what I'm talking about. I'm just enthralled by puppies anyway. We're here. And it's another arse cast. |
| 2:29.4 | And well, Lester. Lester are the the premier league champions. Holy shit. It does make me a little bit worried. |
| 2:39.4 | You know all the stuff that's going on in the world crazy things that people say could never happen like, you know, let's say I don't want to be specific about this because I talked about it a couple of weeks ago, right? And one guy emailed me to say, hey you. |
| 2:52.7 | I don't listen to you to hear about politics. I tune in to hear you talk sometimes about our snow or answer questions like, would you rather have monkey Darth Vader as your dad or a fish for a willy. |
| 3:05.9 | That's what I believe the politics out of it. So I'll be very vague about this right. So Lester city winning the league. Everyone said, no, it can't happen. It's not possible. Just can't. It did they'll fall away. It'll go wrong. It's not going to happen. It won't happen. It just can't happen. And no, no chance. No, oh, fuck. It's happened. |
| 3:22.8 | So imagine if just throwing it out there just I'm just keeping it very vague. Imagine if there was like this orange racist xenophobic hypocritical narcissistic reality TV man aiming to be the leader of the free world. So to speak and everyone's going, no, I can't happen. Won't happen. They'll never happen. No, no, no, won't happen. And now it's like, you know, it's not impossible. |
| 3:48.9 | Lester just won the Premier League. What else could happen this year? An Irishman could win the 100 meters at the Olympic Games. We're not fast. We're not a fast nation. We're not renowned for our speed. We don't have the power, the twitch muscles. We don't have any of that. |
| 4:05.9 | But what happens if an Irishman wins it? Then we're going to have to we're going to have to accept that we have in some way fallen into some kind of weird parallel dimension where literally anything is possible. Actually, you could probably trace this back to Francis Cocoland making it at Arsenal. |
| 4:24.1 | Like it's that for me, that's the first sign of it. It was completely and utterly unprecedented. This is a guy who was a decent enough player did okay for us when he played our memory. |
| 4:33.7 | They're great game at left back in one of the carling cup games, but arson vanger was like, no, don't see it. Not going to happen. Not going to happen. |
