Hey guys it's Nate aka The Foot Account and welcome back to the channel. The trend continues on FC24 and perfectly in line with most people's complaints about this game at the moment. We have another SBC that is not going straight into people's teams because it's not quite good enough. But it's also not a bad SBC. I want to talk about that and of course we have huge news about Player of the Month. That Embape, that Bagnetta that we were talking about, well we have a surprise about that SBC that's not even coming this week. But we'll talk about it because it was news yesterday and speaking of news, Foot Fantasy, the next upcoming promo. We are starting to learn about how those cards are going to look and have the potential to be upgraded. So a lot to talk about today if you're excited for it, drop a thumbs up, subscribe if you're new. Let's go over yesterday's content which was basically just two SBCs, no objectives, no evos. Like evos actually before we go into SBCs, I was just looking at evolutions and it's looking really quiet in here. To be completely honest, it's actually just dominated by Future Star evos. It feels like after the Future Star Academy and the Future Star paid evos go away, it's like what else are we going to have here? I feel like we're going to have to start to get some stuff this next promo for sure because it feels like evos have just been entirely taken over by the Academy stuff. Which I guess is fine, but it's a lot of games and I think some of us are hoping for more. It seems like they're on like an evo break at the moment for whatever reason. They want us to focus on those Academy ones for sure. But we're not seeing any of those until at least Friday for sure because they were not on the weekly tweet. But let's talk about the SBC players and start off with the upgrade player pick that we knew was going to come out in some way, shape or form. But it came out as lower rated, the 86 plus team of the group stage Winter Wild Cards FC versus player pick. It was an 87 last week but it was a 1 of 3, this time it's a 1 of 4. You get that extra slot, that extra option and the player pick is of course pretty cheap as always. Guys it's a gamble player pick, it's only 16% up voted. But if you want to put any little bit of time into the menus, you can obviously get it done pretty easily with the 81 plus player pick and the craft and the grind. I mean it's not a great player pick, I'm going to be honest. It's one squad which is cool, 85 rated I think with the team of the week. So that is nice that it's just one squad to easily get done. But man most of the polls from that are not going to be that great. I can't even tell you who I packed from it yesterday because it wasn't that good. But that's not the point of it, right? That's just kind of a fun gamble pick to do that is pretty cheap if you want to rinse through that and grind through that. It did make a little bit of that low tier fodder as we mentioned in yesterday's video go up, 85 specifically. Since it was an 85 rated squad, most of these are up about 1000 coins a card. They were from like 5.5, 5.6 up to about 6.5K, 6.6K where they are now. Now that SBC is not refreshing today, it's a every couple day refresh. So we'll be able to do it again towards the end of the week. But there is an SBC that is refreshing today that we'll talk about in a little bit that can move the market in terms of an upgrade player pick. Now the other SBC is the talking point for today. And that is the brand new pundit pick, Axel DeSasi. Four, of course, his performance against Manchester City just this last weekend. And this is another fun SBC, right? That's all that this is in my eyes. It is not one that is supposed to go boom straight into most of our teams because it is not a meta card guys. We're talking a two star, three star, medium high, six foot, three player with block plus. Not a terrible play style plus. But remember the John Stones Winter Wild Cards that came out? I just remember doing that SBC and thinking that he was going to be pretty solid. He ended up being a really mid card and he had block plus. I don't think block plus is that great.  Why do you need a better help with that? Like you don't even need to help with that, right? He's got Bruiser, he's got Aerial, he's got Powerheader and Ping Pass. He needed more defending stats and more defending traits really. His stats look good. He needed more defending traits to be really a meta card. And you know the price, the stats, it's not bad. It's actually why if you kind of look at all those things he's actually pretty favored. A lot of people like this card because I think it's just a fun card, right? He got plus 33 place, pace, 22 passing, 14 dribbling and then 8 and 7 in the defense and physical spots. I think they could have just given him a few more play styles and this card would have been really good. But it's kind of obvious to see what EA wants this SBC to be. Just a fun one, right? Just because they're releasing it for 100,000 coins for a French Prem Centerback. French Centerbacks always are SBCs and players in this game that people like to try out. Think about Diakite who's in the current promo team, right? I mean he's only 14,000 coins and I would rather use this card with two play style pluses as a centerback over this DeSasi in my opinion. But it's DeSasi, it's his first promo card of the year, it's a fun one, right? But a lot of people are not happy with this at the same time because you see on Footbin he's got a 58% on the SBC upvote and his card itself is very upvoted compared to the downvotes. So people like this but they don't at the same time. So what are the two ways you can do this? The first way is it's an L because it's not meta and that's how most of the content has been on this game recently. Take a look at a lot of player SBCs. They've either been expensive and pretty good or like semi-good or they've just been really, really cheap like the Jota not meta enough. DeSasi not meta enough. A lot of the other SBCs players that we've had, Neto, Suley, the Richardson card, Savio. A lot of people are just like nah man this is not content that is moving the power curve up at all and it's not going to replace anybody in my team in terms of it being a better player. So a lot of people are looking at this and saying nah this is an LSBC because of course I kind of tweeted about this yesterday and that was my thought right out the bat when I saw this DeSasi. I was like why use this when you can use the most overpowered center back in the game who has been in the game since the start of the year. Gold, Virgil van Dyke. I know it's boring. I know he's the most meta card though and people want to use him. He's 46,000 coins on the market and this card is 100k right? That's the obvious like why would I do this when I have VVD type of situation. So that's like if you're in that mindset you're thinking okay this card is an L and it doesn't upgrade my team so I don't want to do it. The flip side of the coin is it's a W because it's a French Prem center back who got plus 33 pace for 100,000 coins and honestly it is pretty easy to craft. It's an 84 and an 85, two team of the weeks needed. It's not that difficult to get done. You could say I'm going to do this instead of the player pick for the 86 plus get a guaranteed DeSasi card and go have some fun with a brand new card that he may not get a better version than this for the rest of the year. Especially for Evos right? How are you going to get him to go up plus 33 pace? So if you're a Chelsea fan or if you're just building a French team with Premier League links it's not a bad SBC. So it's a fun card to try out and I feel like that's just honestly what we've been in for the past couple of weeks. Most cards have been fun cards to try out, fun SBCs to do. Not necessarily worth upgrading your team and going above and beyond where the power curve is. It's just more in different cards to try out. So if you don't like that, you think it's an L. If you like that, you think it's okay. But that just again kind of what we talked about on Sunday with that video just the current state of like the content of the game. I think that is, that's kind of the conundrum that we're stuck in right now. Most people are like nah that's an L and that's why they're not happy with the game. But other people are like okay it's a fun card to try. I'll go and do it. Now I will say that DeSasi is upvoted and it's making a little impact on the market. Joe Gomez prems center backs in that lower range from 56K yesterday down to 45,000 coins. Some other French center backs have dipped a little bit as well in that lower range, right? This is a cheap SBC. So it's going to make those center backs drop on a little bit of a lower level. You know, I don't think like Thunderstruck Veron really would have, like if somebody sold Thunderstruck Veron for this card, that would be silly because this card is like way way above. I mean okay from 600K yesterday down to 540, I mean I don't know that looks kind of, that's a big drop but I mean he does go from 560 to 600 every single day. So I guess if I see him at 540 again I'll pick him up. And that price was just after the content drop. So I wouldn't say there's a direct correlation between that card and DeSasi but you know what I'm saying, right?  Hopefully though I do hope that this weekend with the new promo upcoming I hope we do get a bit of a boost to the power curve with the new cards that come out. And I'll talk about that a little bit at the end of the video. Now we're going to talk about Road to the Knockouts. Road to the Finals, we're past the Knockouts. We're into the, well we are in the Knockout stages. Now we're going towards the Final with Road to the Final cards. We had a couple good games yesterday. We have three cards that are coming out of the Champions League games yesterday getting upgrades because there was a draw in one of the games and it was between PSV and Dortmund. Suley is going up to an 89. Boscagli is going to get a plus two. With the new upgrade system, 86 is going to 88. He's going to get a plus two. And that was an objective card. If he did the Road to the Final tour objective that was out during the promo that card actually kind of might look cracked. So watch out for that one. Speaking of a French center back you might already have in your club. Maybe you don't do DeSasi because you're about to get that French center back as well. So yeah, he's getting a plus two. Suley is getting a plus one and Lautaro SBC finally an SBC player that actually performs. Kimmich did not, Lautaro did. He's going to go to a 91. Hopefully this Friday when they go and upgrade the cards. I do want to point out Suley for a quick second because I actually bought a couple of these just recently but his price went on a wild ride yesterday. The game was nil nil. I think it was, what is it, like the start of the second half or somewhere around there. Maybe it was during the first half actually when Dortmund scored their first goal. Malin scored and Suley I was watching it. Of course we do this live on stream. We were watching on the market. Suley went from 330,000 coins up to 400 and about 50, 460K was I think the peak that he sold at. We were able to pick up a Suley on stream at 335 and sold it for 440, not even three, four minutes later because he's a rare card. People were all excited about them potentially winning the game him and getting the upgrade and his card price just shot up like crazy but then of course it came right back down. So Suley had a crazy spike and that's where this was like the first best example of what can happen when you're watching one of these live games. If you see a goal scored and you're like right on, I mean like not watching a stream. You can't be on a stream. You got to be watching like a live score app or something that updates the scores ASAP. Then you go by the card. You see it rise. People are like, oh my goodness, he's going to get the upgrade because they're winning this game. Yes, I know that a draw also upgrades the cards but a goal is just way more hype and it kind of cements them as the only one that's getting upgraded and improves their chances for sure of getting upgraded right in that situation. So that's why Suley's card went up. It went up a lot more than I thought it was going to. He exploded and then he came back down and then he's actually going back up a little bit now. I was able to pick up with House High. I saw him go yesterday. I was like, okay, this guy's rare. They're favored in the second leg for sure. It's going to be at home Dortmund versus PSV. So I went out and picked up a couple more Suleys at 330, 331, and 320. He's back up to 360 right now. I guess that card's overpriced but I mean, he's really looking good. He's getting an 89 rated upgrade this weekend and he's probably going to hopefully go to 90 rated in the next couple of weeks if they're able to win that second leg at home and move on to the next round. He would go up again. So it looks good for a card like this. That's why I bought three of those. That's something I might be able to sit on even for a couple of days and watch just to appreciate in price because man, you continue to look at these road to the finals. Like every day it feels like I'm looking at these cards and they're going up even more. Pedri plays today. He's one million coins. That might have been a bit of a rarity spike but that's crazy. I remember when he was 750. Darwin Nunez goes up like 200,000 coins a day. Leao's almost five million. Gabriela Azuz and Arsenal play today. He's 3.7 million. Now of course, selling on the hype is the best play because if you lose like Atlético Madrid did then your card might go from 130,000 coins to 75,000, which is where this card is right now and really not out of the mix for sure but that's something to be very, very careful with that Jimenez card. So selling on the hype, especially for a guy like Xambo and Guisa, right? Today the live cards in action are Arsenal versus, is it Arsenal? Well, let me check the games. Yeah, it's Arsenal versus Porto and then Napoli versus Barcelona. So those are the live games today. So we've got Xambo and Guisa against Pedri and we've got Galeno from that objective. Same places where both Skagli was versus Gabriela Azuz. So if you have any of these selling the hype, take the safe route because I would hate to say, hate to see some of you guys lose coins on something like that but these cards just look like they're going to continue to rise even though we have maybe a new promo come this weekend or we do have a promo this weekend coming that will upgrade cards. These cards are out of packs. They're rare and they're starting to get upgrades which means there is hype for them and not very many people are selling so that stuff is going crazy. So that's kind of what's happening with those cards on the market right now. Continue to watch those. They're great to trade with but they are very expensive. So just be careful. Now, let's talk about more news that happened yesterday with Player of the Month League 1 and this was honestly a madness, guys. This was tweeted out an hour before the content drop on the official site of where we get our news and information for League 1 Player of the Month. We were talking about Mbappe Player of the Month. We were talking about Ben Yetter and that's not who's winning. Martin Terrier has won League 1 Player of the Month. He has won the award. I don't know who voted for Terrier. I mean, no offense against him. He actually does have a pretty decent card and a lot of people have a crazy Evo version of Terrier through the Finisher Evo with Trivella Plus. But a lot of us were hoping for another Mbappe to craft a high big ticket SBC player. If you have the 92 Mbappe, you could maybe upgrade it. That's what we were hoping. If you hadn't done a Player of the Month Mbappe, you just want to rock with it through like the rest of the game. Or Ben Yetter, just a card that hasn't gotten any specials yet this year. Get a special. Have an SBC to craft. Well, none of those dreams are going to be realized because it's going to be Martin Terrier who is going to win this award. And I think he's going to end up. If you would compare the SBC prices, probably for who would have the best card, he's probably going to have the lowest priced SBC, which will be nice for some people. But yeah, it's a little disappointing because I think we were hoping we had our hopes set high. Martin Terrier Player of the Month, again, it's not going to look bad, but he needs a weak foot and a skill move upgrade. And I mean, yeah, this is going to be a decent card. He's got good play styles. Finesse, Rapid, Acrobatik and Aerial. He's six foot. He has lean body type. And again, the 3-3. We need a 4-4. So hopefully EA give him a juice on this Player of the Month, but I don't have high hopes for it and it's a little bit disappointing. And with that, of course, your high rated fodder is still low. I mean, 90s are now even lower, I think, because that was one SBC that people were hoping for to see like an Mbappe. They would make that high-rated stuff go up and it's now down even lower. 43K for 90 rated just because there's nothing right now that makes it look like those cards are going to go up in value. But that SBC should be next week, once again, because we don't believe it's going to be this week with that not being a SBC that EA kind of promoted in their weekly tweet of content that was upcoming. So with all that, how's the market moving, guys? How is the market moving? It was a pretty slow day yesterday. I had the desire, Emory, that I picked up for 1.75, holding on to that.  He was almost 2 million yesterday and he's so rare and he's getting hyped up a lot that I'm going to hold on to this card. If any of you guys bought with the footchamps rewards getting paid out on Tuesday, it happened last week with Team 1 and it happened yesterday again with Team 2. Olyse definitely helped out by the disaster SBC and those French prem links. He went from 75K to 90,000 coins now. Nice. Makoko's up. He's 500K. Hoylan's up like 20K. Palmer's up 300,000 coins. He was 3.2. Niko Williams was 400. I think we looked at last night. Now he's 440. Xerxes up a little bit as well. So a lot of these cards are rising. Even the icons. Smith is up like 30,000 coins. Rivaldo is up. He's 949. Puyo is up. Wow. Beckham is up as well. So a lot of these cards, NEDVET as well, they're rising. A lot of people are going out and trying these cards because yes, they are cheap. They're fun to try out. And again, the fun aspect here for some of these with the double play style pluses, not the most insane cards, but still fun enough to try out. So Gigi, if you invested in those, I think you should be fine to hold on to those, to be honest. It has specially heading into a day where we maybe get some more news about what's coming with the foot fantasy promo. I think you're chilling to hold on to those. The market doesn't seem like it's going to do anything super duper crazy or crash or anything like that right now. So I think you're pretty fine to hold on to those, which is why I'm still holding on to desire Emory and some of these other cards that I'm still flipping. The market seems pretty safe at the moment. Now let's talk about today a little bit because there is one big SPC. They could shake some things up, but it's more so from a fodder perspective. I think it might shake things up. And that is the icon player pick. Yes, the 88 plus, the icon player pick that we had on Sunday that was actually pretty good. They did impact the market a little bit then, is coming back today. Now every time with an SPC refresh, the impact is not as insane as the first time around. But this one for sure will be one that a lot of people want to do today again. 86, 86 and 87 rated squads. And on Sunday, the 86s went crazy. They're still inflated. They're 11,000 coins. I mean, they could go higher today for sure. Like I can see them bouncing, I don't know, maybe to like 13K. On Sunday, they went from 8.1 to 11. Yesterday, they were as low as 10,000 coins again. They go up to like 12.5. So if you can get any of these for like 10K, I think it'd be fine. Because they could spike to like 12 to 13 today because there will be people that want to go do this icon player pick again, especially because of how good it was on the weekend. So I would definitely watch out for the fodder. I don't think too much else moves besides 86s to 88s. And even 88s didn't move that much before. I don't think they would move a ton now this time either. But that's something to watch out for today. And that's going to be probably the biggest piece of content as a refreshing SBC, not something that would be brand new. But if you have fodder already invested and you're waiting for the peak sell time, I think that time would probably be today. It just feels like, especially as a Wednesday, that's the normal day where you see the peak on fodder for the week. So I'd probably try to get out on some of that fodder after content today with a bit of a spike that you could see there. And yeah, that'd be a good trade, good time to get out on that on that. Now player SBC, guys, Yudogi. Is he coming? Is he not? He was leaked in the menus. He was leaked as well. He better be dropping still. Today hopefully is Yudogi day, okay? Spurs left back. A lot of people, myself included, want to put him into the glow-up EVO. And I hope he's today. It's either today or tomorrow. Like, today seems more of like a day for his type of SBC. And there is still the Sevilla Centerback Bade, French Centerback, another one that is supposed to be released as well. That seems more like a Thursday SBC to me and my opinion. So I'm thinking Yudogi today, tomorrow, Bade, we'll have to see. But regardless, those are the two SBCs left to go. If EA do not release Yudogi, then we're going to have some upset people. Mainly me. But yeah, I'm really hoping for this SBC because I think it'll be a little expensive. I think it might be 250, 300 plus. But I will forego the icon pick if I can get this card in the club, especially with the play styles that he's going to get as well through that evolution. It will be a really nice card. So there's that. Hopefully we get Yudogi today. I know a lot of people are looking forward to that. Team of the Week Leagues, there's not a whole lot to ride home about here. We've got a Correa team of the week. That could be actually a pretty busted card if he gets a double boost and a high rating boost. I think he's 4-4 based. This is a card that's always kind of like really good with a left stick dribbling. Argentinian Lynx, Epitico Madrid solid. Donnaruma, which, if I had Rota knockouts Donnaruma, I would maybe be a slight bit worried unless you bought for like less than 100K. Just because a new version of Donnaruma is coming out, it might impact that Rota to the final one. Obviously that's the live one. And it could continue to get upgraded, of course. But I just think a new version of Donnaruma today might make that card actually fall a little bit. He's 140K and he's 90 rated. Which, I mean, what's his next lowest rated card? 88. So I'm assuming his new inform would be 89, as shown here. But it could make the Donnaruma that is the live one dip a little bit just because of that. Another Oda guard coming out today, which actually could be a pretty decent card if they give him the right boost as well. We've got David Neres that is coming out as a team week as well. So team week does not look as good. Of course, this last week was a crazy, crazy one with Holland, right? And some of these cards are already up. Like Holland's up 40,000 coins. Then, of course, you had the tail Hernandez and the Vinny. Not really looking to invest in any of these. Tail could continue to rise a bit. Holland could as well. But yeah, those cards are already up. So I'm not really going to invest in those team weeks right now. Maybe if they come down during the weekend, I would. But it looks like more of a mid team week today. And the last thing to talk about is this. Tweeted out the upgrade path for the FC fantasy. Right again, foot fantasy is what we know it adds. FC fantasy is what it'll be called this year. It's interesting, guys. This is a little bit different than what they've done in years past. You have the potential for four informed upgrades. A plus four for a lot of these cards is pretty crazy. So the base cards are going to come out pretty soon. And then for the first upgrade, it's a attacker or midfielder. The player achieves one goal or assist in the next four league games. It's all about the league games, guys. And we'll cover this and we'll talk about it a lot more in the next couple of days when we get more information. But there are no skill move or weak foot boosts. And there are also no playstyle boost as well. No playstyle pluses, no regular playstyle boosts. It's all stat boosts. So you get an upgrade for assisting. I'm guessing for the defenders, it'd be a clean sheet as well. Club wins two. The player makes three appearances. And then the fourth and final one here. I'm going to minimize the image so you can see it. Club scores 11 goals in the next four domestic league matches. That's going to be very difficult. Very, very difficult. But hey, if your team goes off and scores four goals in a game, then maybe it's possible. But it just depends on who the team is, who the club is, and what cards we get. I have a little bit of hope for this promo, guys, because it always brings a little bit of hype. And this is a promo that they could potentially have a power curve with a little bit. So we will hope for that a little bit and wait for some more leaks. I do believe that we will get a loading screen today and a little bit more news about fantasy foots or fantasy FC fantasy. Some leaks of players that could be in the promo as well. I think that Greelish is a concept, but you might end up being in the promo. It's been a little bit since we had a Greelish card. So that is very possible. So watch out for that very closely today. We'll be talking about it more tomorrow if we get more news. But for that, I'll be hitting the 81 plus player pick even more today getting a few cup games done. And just crafting my way through the menus, waiting for what in the world this FC fantasy type of vibe could be in the Udogi SBC, working on my evos, all that good stuff right now. At least the 81 plus player pick is here. That is literally just holding this game together right now. The 81 plus player pick. So that's going to be the video for today, guys. We'll talk more FC fantasy in the future because that could be a banger promo. We'll get more of a vibe on it today as we see a loading screen, fingers crossed and some more leaks. But yeah, guys, that's the update for me today. If you guys enjoyed the video, drop a thumbs up on it. Comment down below if you have any questions and subscribe if you're new. It's been Nate from the Counties. See you guys in the video tomorrow. Peace. Out.


Adventures in time and space transcribed in future tense. Dimension. Can you predict what will come in 100 years, or in 10, or in the next minute? Some people think they can. Nuclear science, mathematician, astronomers, biologists. They'll predict the shape of the future because they make the future. Because they see beyond the known dimensions of time and space into the unknown dimension X. We go ahead now in time to 1965. We're on a vast concrete runway set in the desert of the southwest. A giant metal ship stands before us, prowl pointed for the stars, and in five minutes the signal will flash, and it will tear up through the atmosphere to the outer... Five minutes, Steve. We'll see if you're again, Steve. Don't worry, I got it straight. We'll just make sure. Okay, I'll take her up on jets to 50,000 and I cut in the rocket. No lore, or your tail blast will burn out three counties. I climb four minutes on rockets, then start my nova test. Remember that, no more than four minutes. This ship isn't like those strut of rockets you've been testing. She's the first one built for outer space. If she works, she can go clear to the moon. I don't know that, I'd have brought my toothbrush. Not this trip. Now get this, Steve. You've got power there to clear the Earth's gravitational field. But remember, after you cut in the rockets, you've only got ten minutes fuel. If you go beyond the outer limit, and don't save fuel for the return... I know, I won't get down again. That's right, Steve. You'll drift off into space. Get that now. Ten minutes fuel. Gotcha. As far as I'm concerned, this project is a lot more important than that cosmic ray bomb they're testing out in the Pacific tonight. Well, security commission brass doesn't think so. I don't see any undersecretaries under anything. Don't worry. The long run, our ship will make the CR bomb back-paid stuff. But in the meantime, it's just as dangerous. Remember, half the principles in this ship are pure theory, Steve. Slide rule and stuff. If anything goes wrong, we may have to scrape you off the landscape with a soup spoon. You have a charming sense of humor. Here's what I'm getting at. We're risking your neck in this test. If anything blows, we don't want to have the next man pull the same boner. I know, Hank. So keep your mic open and keep talking. If anything goes wrong, we want to know exactly why. And we won't be able to ask you. Let us know before you pull every switch. Before you do anything. You got that? Yeah. Even if you only have to blow your nose. All right, get those deal lines away. Okay, bro. Well, I guess that's about all, Steve. That reminds me, look, if Mary calls, I'm just up on a milk run. I didn't tell her today was it. How is she? She's okay, but she's due about now, and I don't want her to be nervous. Hey, I didn't know the baby was that close. Yeah. Steve, I really ought to be sending a single man on this job. Well, I didn't cut me out of a soft paycheck. Forget it, Hank. You know, you can't get anybody else who can take 15G's acceleration when those rockets cut in. Yeah, I know. It's time, Steve. Yeah. Well, see you later. Don't worry, Hank. I'll sweat for both of us. Buttoner up, Charlie. So long, Hank. So long. We'll give you the light from control. Got you on the speaker. I'm ready to go. Mr. Hansen. Ready on radar, Sergeant? Yeah. Mr. Hansen, you'd better see this. What is it? Message sent for Steve. Mrs. Weston just left for the hospital. What? Hello, Steve. Yeah. Stand by a minute. Shall we hold the takeoff, Mr. Hansen? Oh, yes. No, wait just a minute. It's too late now. You going to tell him? Maybe he's got enough to worry about. It's nothing, Steve. I just wanted to say good luck. Clear for takeoff, Charlie? Right. Okay. Give him the light. 400 still climbing. Altitude, 297 miles. All right. Okay. Spreading a three-degree left bank. It's a little sluggish. That's all right now. There's a low vibration someplace. Maybe the cockpit has. I'm straightening out. I'm starting a three-degree rock. Hey, something up here. Something's shining. What are you talking about? Something above me, Hank. I'm going to chase it. Steve. What happened? At the end of the stool. Nothing more on radar, Sergeant? Screen's blank. Colonel Carelli called in. The search plane's back. I didn't find anything. Should be some trace. He couldn't have bailed out, could he? Don't hit the soak at 4,400 miles an hour. He didn't pass the outer limit. We're out of fuel. Something blue, and we'll find the pieces scattered from here to the coast. Why does it have to be the best man? Always the best man. I'll get it, sir. Charlie. Charlie, we've got to figure out what was wrong. All right. I'll tell him. Something must have blown. There's a message from Northside Hospital for Steve. Oh, what is it? This is Weskin's fine. Boy. Thank you, Elsie. It's a boy, Charlie. Oh. Fine. Fine. It's a boy. He didn't even know she went to the hospital. How am I going to tell Mary that? Wasn't your fault, Mr. Hansen? Ship had to be tested. Yeah, yeah. We'll build another one. And some other flying fool will shoot past the outer limit into space. Oh, I'm getting old, Charlie. You can remember when I used to take him up myself. Now I've got to send other men. It's a job, Mr. Hansen. Now I'm afraid.  Every time I have to send someone up in a new model, I start to sweat. Mr. Hansen. Yeah? I think there's something on the radar. No flights scheduled in, are there, Elsie? We have a whole day cleared. It's coming in behind us. What crazy chuck is buzzing the field like that? Is that an army plane, Charlie? I can't see. It's turning. Charlie, alert the field. I know that engine. Steve. That's impossible. Steve. There's no other model like that. It's Steve, all right? It's coming in. Thank God. Let this done the quicker you get over to see Mary and the baby. Hank. Elsie, give the order to check and refuel the rockets. I don't want anybody in here till I get Steve's reports. Very any calls. All right, let's have it. Let the devil have it. Hank, does that cosmic ray bomb still go off tonight? What are you talking about? Straighten out, Steve. Where have you been for the last 10 hours? Listen, Hank, there's something more. Come on, come on. I've got to get a report on the screen to Washington, so let's have it. I've got to know how you stretch 10 minutes fuel to keep you in the air for 10 hours. One thing before I talk. Look, Steve. Have the Geiger men run over the ship before they refuel.  So help me, Hank. I don't know. We better check and make sure it isn't radioactive. Elsie, add a Geiger report on the standard check. Steve, maybe we better have the dock. Look you over, too. No, no. I'll be all right. They said I'd be all right. They? Look, son, I know you've had a tough time, but we've had this field on the alert for 10 hours.  So let's have a story. Let's have it straight. I don't know how to tell you. Hank, I saw something up there. A 300 mile? I chased something up there, Hank, and I caught it. Now don't hand me that. Listen to you. I was cruising along, just starting the right bank when I spotted something. It must have been going about half my speed. It was egg-shaped and smooth. I made a pass at it and I was coming back for another, and then there was a humming sound. A humming? A sort of vibration, and I blacked out. I was headed straight for it at 4,400 miles an hour. I thought it was going to be the biggest smash since Hiroshima, and Hank, is there a drink in that bottle? Never mind that, Steve. What happened? I came to inside their ship. Uh-huh. Steve, this whole thing has been a devil of a strain on you. I'm going to call Major Donaldson from the Army base, ask him to sit in. A psychiatrist? Yeah, yeah, that's a good idea. Let him run his test. He'll tell you, I'm not kidding. Because Hank, unless I miss my guests, I've just been tipped off to the way the world ends. Right, Mr. Weston? Suppose you continue your story. Yes, let's have it, Steve. You woke up inside the ship? Yes, and the place was jammed with machinery. Dialed, blinkers. I couldn't recognize anything. And you were surrounded by these men from Mars? I didn't say anything about men from Mars. I didn't even say they were men. I couldn't see them clearly. They were just there. Where did they come from then? Another galaxy, millions of miles outside of our solar system. That's all I know. You figure out where they came from. And they came all that distance to find the Earth? Yes. Did they tell you that? Yes. You mean they spoke English to you? No, no, they didn't. It's funny. I hadn't thought. They didn't really speak to me at all. They just planted the thoughts in my mind. You mean thought, transference, telepathy? Yes, that's right. Well, Steve, what brought them here? We did, Hank. We rang their bell. We brought them in. Wow. With our atomic explosions. Hank, that's why you've got to stop that bomb test tonight. I'll give a... Look, you've got to believe me, Hank. Oh, how can I make you understand? Maybe I can help, Mr. West. Would you submit to narcosychometry? What's that? Under proper drugs, I can put you back in this... ship, by suggestion. Then we can get a playback record of your memory pattern on the audio circuit. And how long will that take? Half an hour. We'll have to go over to the lab. Will you believe me if it checks? It will give us an accurate memory picture of what your mind reports. All right, let's go. Hank, you've got to believe me. We haven't got much time. You should be getting drowsy now. Count backwards from ten. Nine. Eight. He's under. Now we attach the head plate electrodes. Cortical pickup. Look after that wire, Mr. Henson. Three old setting. Thirty-one point three. Now, throw that switch, Mr. Henson. I have to start him off by suggestion. All right, Steve. You're in your ship now. You're in the rocket. You're in the rocket. You're in the rocket. And you've just sighted something strange. Now I'm starting a three-degree right. What's that? There's something up here. Something shining. His memory pattern. We're picking it up electronically. Something above me, Hank. I'm going to chase it. It's piped through the audio circuits. I'm getting static. I can't hear you, Hank. This is where we lost contact with him. I'm going to make a pass at it. Hey, it's werving to meet me. It's that ahead now. It's that ahead. Now what? This is where he blacked out. There's no telling how long, minutes or hours. What's that noise? I don't know, Clam. What did I get in here? What? Is he seeing things? Intergalactic patrol. What's that? What are they saying, Steve? What are they saying? It's about nuclear fission. They know about it. They know the danger of it. Long ago they had wars that almost destroyed them. But finally they learned. Now they've outlawed war. Go on, Steve. They patrol space. When their detector picks up an atomic explosion, they send a patrol. What are they going to do? They've quarantined us. Quarantine? They've isolated the Earth. Because we don't know how to control ourselves yet. Until we learn, we'll be a menace to the whole universe. What is this nonsense? How are they going to do it, Steve? They've spread a layer out here. I don't know how to call it.  It'll go around the world in microseconds. And that's the end. The end? What's he... Wait, wait. Yes, bring back the warning. You're going to put me back in my ship to bring the warning. Now what? Blacked out again. I guess that's all. What does all that mean? It's what he remembers. Don't think that really happened. Narcosacometry circuits produce what he remembers. It just means that Steve believes this happened. I don't like to see this. I've seen too many tough pilots snap. Steve is the best I've known. How bad do you think he is? Frankly, outside of the presence of this well-organized hallucination, there's no sign of unbalance. May not be too serious. If he had a more plausible story, I'd be inclined to believe him. Why? It's all right, boy. Did you hear it, Hank?  Sure, sure. We've been quarantined. Let me give you something to make you sleep, Steve.  They fixed it so that if we set off one more nuclear explosion, that'll be it. Of course. Don't roll your sleeve down. You don't believe me. Now, take it easy, Steve. I've got pests tonight. They're setting off to see our bomb. Hank, what time is it? 11.20. Well, it's scheduled for midnight. Hank, we've got to stop that bomb. Steve, let Donaldson give you the hypo. Hank, you've got to believe me. I saw them. I got the warning. If we touch off that bomb tonight, it'll be the biggest galactic fourth of July of all time. The whole earth will go up like a Roman candle. April 10th, 1965, the end. Now, look, Steve, you better calm down. Don't you want to see Mary and the baby? You've got a new son, remember? Yeah, that's just it. I want to see my son. I want him to live. If that bomb goes off, Hank, we've got to stop them. Mr. Hanson, I think we'd better get over to the base hospital. Hank, you've got to believe me. Yeah, sure, sure, Steve. Maybe there is something to it. Look, it's out of your hands. We'll put it in a report and shove it into Washington in the morning. In the morning? There isn't going to be any morning, Hank.  You've got to call Washington now. Get the head of the security commission and postpone that test. Now, you know I can't do that, Steve. My neck could be out a mile. Besides, this is 1965, not 45. Twenty countries have atomic bombs now. What's the use of stopping just this one? The rest will keep right on popping them out? We won't have to call an international conference. Catch understant, Hank. The first one that goes off finishes us at the end. It's a quarantine morning. Steve, I think you'd better go with us to the base hospital. Look, Steve, we can call up for a detail if we have to. All right, all right. I'll go with you. You don't need a straight jacket. That's the way, Steve. You'll probably feel better by morning. Let's go. Well, Steve, tomorrow I'll drive you over to the hospital to see Mary and the kids. Sure. Look at the ship under the headlights. Pretty, huh? You'll be flying her again soon, don't you worry. Yeah, yeah, I guess so. Uh, what you doing out in the line? Are they, uh, with you? Yeah, we've got Closowitz coming in tomorrow from Denver for another test.  That's good, that's... Why? Steve, Steve, come back. Come on, Donald, come. Steve, wait! He's heading for the rocket. Look, there he goes up.  You can't get at him now. That covers armor glass. He's waving. Yeah, towards control. There's the radio. He needs the radio. Come on. I should have gotten help. Let's go. Come here. Hello. Hello, Steve. Come out of that rocket, Steve. I'll call my men. Don't try anything, Hank. They brief you of the rocket for tomorrow. Take it easy, Steve. You don't hear? Steve, don't. What do you want? All right, all right. Just don't fire those rockets. All right, I'm making the parallel hookup right now. Donaldson, do you think he'll really blast? I don't know. Up to now, I don't want to say it was normal, but now he's liable to do anything, Hanson. Steve. Steve, there. Are you getting it on your screen? All right. Operator. Business screen to Washington. Steve, an hour. This is security commission priority. Break in, get me a line. Steve, I'm trying. Ready to take your call, sir. Washington, security commission three. This is urgent. I want undersecretary Herbert Ames. What? 11-31. Do you think he'll fire those rockets? He might. Washington? This is screen three. Mr. Herbert Ames, please. That is possible chain reaction. No, I can't tell you the whole story. There isn't time here. Yes, yes. I'll bring the readings into Washington in the morning. You've got to postpone the test till you see them. Look, I've worked on contracts for the commission for 10 years. Yes, yes. I have complete confidence in my information. You can record that. All right. I'll call you back immediately. Bye. He's agreed to cancel, Steve. The bomb won't go off. All right, boy. You can come down out of that ship. He's opening up. Here he comes. All right, Steve. Come on down. Sure, Hank. Just a second. I was scared. I was plain scared. It's all over. The bomb won't go off. Thank God. Look, I want to see Mary and the baby. Can you get me transportation now? Wait a minute. It's almost 12. They won't let you in the hospital now. I want to see the baby. Sure you do. But you've been under the strain. I've got a shot for you here, Steve. Give you a good night's sleep. All right. Roll up your sleeve. Right here. Sergeant will find you a bed. Yes, sir. Come on, Mr. Wilson. Okay. Good night, Hank. I'm kind of beat. It's been a tough night. It sure has. I thought for a minute he was going to blast those rockets and send us all to kingdom come. Yeah. Quite a stunt getting the Ray bomb test called off. It isn't called off. But the chief said... Hames couldn't get the chief. I was talking to a dead circuit. Bomb goes off in a couple of minutes. Oh, he was the best. One in ten million. Some story of his, poor guy. For a while, he almost had me believing that quarantine. That's a very common illusion. End of the world. Yeah. Ah, it's a nice night. Never saw the stars so bright. We better be getting in. That wind is cold. The bomb goes off in 30 seconds. Steve.  Yeah? It's outside my field, but I'm curious. How did he keep that ship in the air for ten hours? With only ten minutes' fuel. I've just heard another adventure in time, space, and the unknown world of the future. The world of... Dimension. Next week, a star of the future appearing on the program of the future. Dimension X. Next week, Miss Nancy Olson, the talented young actress whose performance in Sunset Boulevard marks her as one of Hollywood's most promising young actresses, becomes the first of a group of rising young artists of stage and screen who have been invited to make an appearance in this series. So listen, then, for Hello Tomorrow, starring Nancy Olson on Dimension X. Tonight, Dimension X has transcribed The Outer Limits, written by Graham Dorr and adapted for radio by Ernest Kenoy. Featured in the cast were Wendell Holmes as Hanson, Joseph Julian as Steve, and Jody Santas as Donaldson. Your host was Norman Rose, music by Albert Berman, engineer Bill Chambers. Dimension X is produced by Van Woodward, and directed by Edward King.


It's like that though. It's so like that. Oh god told me to break up with you or god told me we should date and we're gonna be destined to be married. We're gonna have seven kids. We're gonna have like a bus. Like what are you supposed to say? Like oh well god told me something different so sorry.


t it's very the terrible right now you know but yeah and you know like between washing powder and the wee dishwasher tablets that looked like sweets wee Hudson came into me yesterday uh because there was a box out uh come into me with one of those wee dishwasher tablets thinking it was a sweet asking me to open it that's why I said to Kaylin earlier on that we were talking about this yesterday it's just that for instant like I'm over careful may but it's just that in that instant you can just let your guard down and you just don't know it's not bad parenting it's just it's hard to keep on track of everything so conversations like this with you may and Kaylin earlier just reminds us to double check double check those spaces make sure yeah well they were yeah well this bag was in our wee box was in the car yeah and they thought that it was sugar and he he took it but his twin sister she didn't take it you know she knew better but and that's what the surgeon said to me he says with the quick reaction of giving the water and sort of then Francie went out then to the car because if that had gone into his stomach it would have been a whole different story okay may listen it's been lovely speaking it's been lovely sorry may I beg your pardon slight delay there in line it's been lovely speaking to you and I'm glad to hear that all's well that ends well and he's happily married and it's a happy ending to the story and he's still your wee four-year-old or your wee three-year-old two two two two of course I may have a lovely day take care of yourself all right okay had all the big baby in front of me now Paul McLaughlin gardener at Balak third garden center in the mountain top letter Kenny Paul how are you not so bad I still could refer to as the wean as well me too it just doesn't change particularly with um particularly with moms right okay the weather I kind of not interested in anything to do with the car anything that I just wanted I want to do summer stuff like gardens and grass and plants and get outdoors but the weather has been what what is the weather meant for our greenery and our flowers and what have you Paul pretty much everything's growing quite well again now like the grass is growing again really during the sort of heat wave we had there to really take a step back you could see the verges all turning yellow and stuff but the ground needed it didn't that did sure yeah and it's actually the the sort of persistent rain that's been happening sort of slightly over the time it's actually wetting the ground fairly well so it's actually but for anybody growing crops that potatoes or stuff like that it'll be perfect actually get yeah for sure just at the right time yes um now that doesn't mean though that we should neglect water because not everything gets access to the water that comes from the sky absolutely not no it just it's very easy to become complacent at this sort of stage so that's what I was talking about my complacency but no it's sort of but if you look at it and it's really anything I gotta be grand if you know what I mean but the stuff sort of and under porches or in under the leaves the house is not getting it so you really have to keep up on the keep up on the what he called uh the the the advice is always there and isn't it in terms of deadheading and is feeding I mean obviously deadhead all the time it's an important part of the whole process now a good time to feed what should we be feeding our plants perfect time to feed probably for flowers that sort of stuff miracle grows your best bit sort of cover all sort of thing you know but um cause the things actively growing out it's perfect time to feed because it gets the most out of it right through the plant feeding so feed them the good stuff right okay absolutely um right we also I mean not everything we have to keep an eye out so if you mentioned potatoes blight uh that we've had a few blight warnings I think a lot of people are right across that if they're used to grow potatoes but still uh but what are the things should we keep an eye out around our plants that we could remove or could be damaging our plants pretty much the big thing to look out for them would be slugs yeah sort of dampish well there's just perfect conditions for them to be active it's warm and it's damp so they love that sort of thing so keep an eye out for slugs um just physically remove them if you want to use your beer traps or whatever and another thing sort of a relation of the blight would be black spot and roses so if we got to any of them sort of fungal infections that sort of weather's perfect for them so just keep an eye out especially if the temperatures creep up as we head towards the weekend exactly it's going to be even damper and uh uh warmer right I mean we over the course of doing this get more and more questions all the time about people growing their own food a uh it's it's a nice hobby be satisfying but see also to you know people are becoming would cost a living and all I'm not saying this is the solution to it but I think we become more aware and and look at a bit more is uh what about now if someone wants to get into that they've got a bit of space yeah can you grow food at the moment yeah pretty much nose care what can you get nose care for 10 for growing food sports tins of beans pretty we can grow your own beans if you want tins tins possibly not a delicious kitchen yes what I go but no funny you're on tin stuff there there is nothing like your own beetroot yes I'm like what I go beetroot is perfect for growing you can we get in a wee bit borderline late fart now if you know what I mean but you can still sort from seed now but there is nothing tastes like your own beetroot like it's nothing like a stuff what else salads are easy aren't they anything leafy or herbies absolutely if you're starting with someone like rocket it'd be very good because it's a very quick grown if you know and if you want to go or or oriental sort of stuff like a pack joy and it'd be perfect at this time you and for those who have a head start is anything being harvest at the moment I think spuds over the next couple of weeks in towards the end of the month depending on when they were sold what have you what else is on me on my own garden in the strawberries are coming on nicely sort of harvest no where are they uh yes uh next week maybe or so but no funny last night I actually got a pile of cucumbers off the plants doing the tunnel cool so they didn't know they're above ground are they yeah right the ground grows like a climber almost yes so it doesn't have any loads even how big are your cucumbers like cucumbers be about that's a decent size and how thick uh thick probably uh but two inches and is it this exactly is the one you might get in a shop because you know we talked earlier on about before about carrots and carrots can be you know it can look different than but but your cucumbers these are to be fairly perfect tomatoes tomatoes yes we've been early for tomatoes to be ready man they're actually nicely on the plant my mother loved growing tomatoes like you know it was almost like we never existed when they started the wee green balls yes I funny that's minor just like that at the moment they're just the wee green what I got things going on nicely now but probably in the next few weeks I'll be ready really sort of starting to come ready you know excellent okay they're also in your tunnels yes absolutely I so um if you're very lucky in the south facing wall around here you may get them grown outside certain varieties but generally they're an undercover plant but the tunnels aren't necessarily incredibly expensive or scientific or what have you I mean it's not hard to create when I imagine absolutely not there are a million and one versions online you can copy if you know what I mean it's not it's not a science I mean there's a science to it but it's not yeah exactly I know it's someone you can actually put up a sort of structure a lot of people sort of start by a homemade structure and work towards something bigger once you start seeing the results you go right exactly it's like fishing or something else you get the whole golf or whatever yeah it's the bug is it too late to plant carrots parsnips in a poly poly tunnel very poor growth outdoors how do we achieve no dig gardening no dig gardening is the things become very popular in the last few years so it has it's a thing you don't actually dig up the ground what you do is cover it in cardboard and then add sort of compost and layer of compost over the top of the cardboard and over the course of the months and the cardboard sort of biodegrades and then the ground and under comes into play but it's actually it's a sort of a labor not labor what's the advantage of that the advantage of it's your first of all the no dig yeah but you're still you're still shoveling yeah you're still shoveling stuff but it's still it's a lot less sort of labor intensive right it gets rid of the weeds without actually that oh of course yeah digging them over if you know what I mean but now I've seen a good few people using it a very good success so what about parsnips or carrots in a poly tunnel uh parsnips and a poly tunnel i would leave them for a bit of a couple of weeks yet right because it'll be quite too hot the tunnel so it's not too late then no it's not even outside it's not too late for carrots yeah but they're saying they've got very poor growth outdoors all right pretty much if you give them a good feed no no better time to start them outdoors because the tunnel's nearly too hot uh i have two apple trees we apples were starting to grow next thing they fill off leaves leaves all away black on the apple tree what's gone on there i would say they're probably been a victim of the heat wave that is done by what happens in a lot of times if the tree sort of thinks that it's in drought conditions it'll throw sort of the survival mode exactly right so it just throws the excess stuff like the fruit off and that sort of thing you know so it's just i think it's probably a result of the heat uh what's the best grass seed to put down uh on patches as our dog has made a track over and back and all the grasses worn away yeah they want to sort of match the grass don't pretty much the most common around here because what's known as number two lawn seed you get sort of three grades number one would be like a bowling green sort of grade number two sort of fairly rough and number three would be quite rough so number two generally will match in the most stuff yeah and just mix it up with a bit of compass or a bit of sand just to keep the moisture and hot establishes all right can you ask paul how often should you put sulfate of iron on a lawn not just for moss kill but for general feeding and greening uh for general the sulfate of iron itself won't do much in terms of uh greening it itself you know but it will kill the moss and sort of it allows the grass which allows the grass to thrive yeah pretty much so pretty much a lot of people do just once a year sort of around april may time or so but in a pretty good bad case you could do sort of april may and then do it in september again all right so we've a plum tree never hear much about plums oh plums are quite popular um it's a long time since i've had a plum actually um we have had a plum tree which was nothing ever on it why is it so hopefully it is a plum tree yeah but it's never fruited what's that could be a couple of things going on there but uh point number one would possibly just needs a general feed so pretty much like feed it now with something like your poultry manure that sort of thing and then april time to sort of put the feed directly towards at producing fruit will be a potash okay april time or so but if in any doubt just in case running obvious going wrong with it just take a few pictures and take a deer garden yeah is it too late to plant roses too late to plant roses no once the plants in the pot you can plant it any time of year you probably won't get as full a full display of blooms this year but you're also being good just replacing it's it's just a location thing exactly now once the plants in pot you can plant any time yeah okay uh what plants are suitable for a small barked area um small barked area pretty much if you're doing an area look at there what you'd want to do is sort of select a few plants that's going to flower at different times like january someone flowers spring someone flowers summer someone flowers autumn and the likes of that there would be um just to give yourself a range so someone like azaleas for the start of the year maybe hebes for the autumn time or hebes for the summertime and someone like rubeckia for the autumn time would be perfect our lawn was formally afield uh and now it's full of moss where do we start yes so big area obviously so probably someone like a scarifier that like the ordinary push won't make be too big an area for it so if you could sort of source even online somebody locally with a scarifier in the back of a tractor maybe remove it but do you have to talk about why there's moss there to begin with in other words generally drainage would be a problem all right that's because that could be a fight in battle couldn't it absolutely yeah but generally a bigger area like that you'd be looking probably not looking for just uh like a bowling green lawn anyway so if you could think but drainage probably would be the first issue to look at all right so what month can i plant beetroot beetroot ideally for beetroot you'd be planting that sort of march april and trees and then setting it out about sort of may june or so but if you want to directly do it from seed you'd do it either june or pretty much now you can still do it for when if you were doing it from seed for now when would you start seeing the fruit of your endeavour yes about october okay so now's a good time to seed it if you've got the patience to wait october right this is a biggie um our lawn no sorry novice gardener they want to get into it the they have an notion where to begin right but want to make a start on my garden it is very large so do you start in the middle around the ends where do you begin where what what happened right i suppose the thing to do there was sort of get it don't i do i'd take a picture and go in and see you that's probably number one thing to do all right because i yeah just because we've said it in the past and let's reiterate it you know you can see the wood for the trees if you know what i mean you say well that might not go nice here that might go nice it's hard for you to sort of pass that information and allow you to do so of course paul but that's what you're there for say look at you know you're there to inspire and you know you're at the start of someone's journey you would love it and the same of the brilliant stuff in all the other garden centers as well you've said it time and again haven't you take a picture come in have a chat right and actually it's never been easier to do that in the sense now with google earth and stuff yeah actually measure from your phone you can measure your garden all aspects haven't even get the direction of where the sun's coming from and stuff you know so that'll be the first thing someone says to you look my budget this year is let's just say you know 250 what can i do to make a difference this year you can work with them that's you'll help people with it absolutely generally you're better start when i start a cohesive plan yeah because there's nothing worse than doing a wee bit this year and we but next year and then realizing it doesn't work together so if you can sort of put a plan on place first and someone as well like garden can be expensive so going away and getting your soil tested

donnell is owner of a donnell school of motoring hi klet hi gregg how are you it's good to have you on board on the show and you know what it's interesting that i'm talking to you because i did see a few comments from people on social media with their own personal experience and that is an unpleasant experience went out on your l plates trying to learn uh how to drive or to get that experience but other drivers not having perhaps the patience that they could have oh my god you wouldn't believe it you're actually sitting on learning you know or teaching people how to drive it's absolutely terrible come across it every single day any examples what kind of stuff do you see right i'll give you one example um i was going around at the lights around by the cinema one day and i had a learner driver on and there was a man behind me in a van and the light was flashing amber and obviously it was taking a little bit of while for the girl to move off and he was blowing the horn behind me and like i have a middle mirror here on my side as well and i could see him and i'm shaking away his hands and the aggression in his face and by the time the girl moved off the light was green so he followed us then he was around behind us then as we were turning up the back road up by the chinese and i was we moved into the right lane he pulled up alongside of me it was a lovely day the one that was down on my side and he started cursing to me and he says you should not be a driving instructor do you not know what a flashing amber light is i says yes i do know what a flashing amber light is i says it says um i says but i'm dealing with a learner driver here and he was cursing at me and he stuck his two fingers up to me and drove off well i mean that's a him problem because i wouldn't like to be walking around in his head because the car is clearly a you know what i mean it is a car that is there for training people to drive people know what it's there for we see them around all of the time you know i you show grace i think most people do don't they collect or are you seeing it more and more instances of impatience and ignorance no i'm seeing more and more of it um greg to be quite honest with you um i've actually seen people behind like maybe around about and there i can see them again in my mind and they're shaking their hands shaking their head they actually if they're a bit slow moving off they'll actually go out around you and pull in and maybe sometimes nearly cause an accident by what they're doing and um i actually had somebody go into the back of me once um they were that close up behind me they actually hit my car because um the person stalled and they actually hit the back of my car then so it took them along with them to get away but um you know other people are getting more impatient but like you know that's that's if they're like that on the road that's actually a reflection on them as well that's what they're actually like and they're daily lights as well you know what i mean that's they're it's just it's just showing a little bit of care for predominantly probably young people not exclusively that they're they're nervous as hell they're trying to get on the road who's to say they're not trying to do it so they can get a job or they're waiting on on the test for a job you know like we've all been there at some point or other what is wrong with people that they can't breathe count to five or if it takes 10 count to 10 and and just and the thing is is it doesn't interfere in their day at all that person who was trying to get your learner to move on amber how long is it eight eight seconds does it take to go flash a flash an amber yeah flash an amber like it's second six not a minute yeah but how would they like if someone was treating their son or daughter or a member of their family people don't think like that anymore it seems glad to people just don't think like that anymore no they don't think like that like you know it's just pure arrogance like in the sign as you say is on top of the car they know it's a learner car you know that they're learning to drive like they're intimidating and then the person gets more nervous and then you know they're right up behind them they're driving right up close down they're not giving them the space and the person's getting more nervous then if they stall the car and then they're blowing the horn then they're more nervous then they're going to start you know doing things then that they wouldn't normally do if people was but there is now don't get me wrong there is um genuinely nice people out there that will the courteous to the learner drivers and we'll let them go and have the patience with them but can I say that person that was was screaming blue murder at you right yeah you can be sure that that person when they get to a roundabout they'll go into whichever lane gets them away quickly they'll not bother with the indicators because they don't care who's in front of them and behind them they'll cross lanes they'll skip lights they're the ones that you meet that have skipped the lights at the road work and your nose to nose halfway through you know what i mean and they're the fully qualified driver do you know you can just imagine how that person might drive he's flashing his lights behind you if you're going 50 kilometers prior on the four lanes you know you know he's bashing the lights and bibbing the horn like yeah there's another case where um there's one resin where we do the turnabout and we actually um he we're out in the test routes and then he'll come up and he'll actually drive up in the pavement he'll he'll come round he'll blow the horn he'll drive up in the pavement to get around the learner driver even when they're out in the driving test as well he'll do this and um he'll pure intimidate them he'll drive right up to your door of your car then he'll reverse back and then he'll go up and around the pavement then because he feels that we shouldn't be on the road up around where we're doing it in fairness click i have heard people with some frustration of learner drivers doing those kind of maneuvers at peak times uh i'm not in any way just saying that behavior is justified but is there an issue there that maybe you know when people are learning that they could to keep out but then again how are you going to learn if you're not doing it when it's the busiest yeah but we have as much right to be on the road as anybody else we'll pay our tax and insurance like you know there's nothing like you know like why why like you know there's peak times like you know if you go home at a peak time you're going to be stuck stuck in traffic like you know i mean like you know we're only there for not even a minute doing a turn about like you know what i mean so we're not holding traffic up that much and like you know so like if you're if there's delays in town and traffic like you're going to be sitting in traffic looking there's nothing you can do about it like you know what i mean so like people have to learn to drive people have to learn to practice and test routes so like you know i think we've very much right to be on the road to do our job as well as anybody else like we're teaching people a skill we're teaching people safety on the road so i think like you know at the end of the day we're doing a good job and i think you know we're making safer drivers on the road and people need to appreciate that and just a bit of common sense a bit of respect for the learner drivers and that's all we're looking for when we're out there like at the end of the day like you know it's the aggression i mean like you know uh i can understand that people can get a little bit frustrated and if you verbalize it internally right or or squeeze the steering wheel a little bit tighter okay that's going to happen because people are busy but it's this aggression towards not only you but also a young person who could be up to hiding with nerves it depends it's the aggression it's the it's the confrontations the gesturing it's the swearing there's no need or justification for that in any situation i'm no angel i hope i think people know that i like i'm a normal normal person and bib the horn or f in blind very very rarely i'm not saying i've never done it right but certainly not to a learner driver but my point is is is that it just it's it's it's creeping in more and more when we're not respecting or caring about each other as much as we're used to for some reason yeah but you've got to realize as well like you know even if it's not even to learn from even some days maybe a bit slow on the road like you know you don't know what that person has gone through in their personal life that day or maybe you know they maybe got bad news maybe they you know and people's blowing the horn being aggressive to them as well they could be the nurse that you end up uh under their care off in the hospital you know who's to say yeah exactly like you know and like you know a bit of like you know they don't know what they've gone through that they feel like a bit of compassion like and then they're adding extra stress on their life like you know people need to sit back take a look at what they're doing to other people and show a bit of respect for other people like you know at the end of the day like you know um like people needs to just show a bit of respect for other people and a bit of compassion for other people that's all we're looking for in this life like you know you know i think at the end of the day that's that's what we're just looking for here and maybe by highlighting on your show today by highlighting the paper today maybe all of this maybe people will take a step maybe people will take a step back and look at it like you know hopefully this well and thank you i really appreciate you for highlighting on the show today and uh like you know hopefully people will take note of it before i let you go clit how's the frustration levels amongst your students with the delay uh in in actually sitting their tests uh you know i mean obviously you have to wait six months before you can apply uh you know after you pass your test uh your your theory for an example and you have to do your 12 mandatories but then when you get to apply and you go on the estimator and it's three four five six months before you're even invited to apply we need to get that timeframe down don't we yeah definitely we definitely do and there are a quick new test so hopefully it will bring it down but um it is quite frustrating for people who need it for work who need it for like maybe people you know emigrating as well and then if they go then and they fail the test and then like you know they're back on the same waiting list again like you know they need to do something to sort of we definitely do need to do something to bring the waiting times down and it is frustrating for young people like it's frustrating like so they do but they are recruiting new tests so hopefully they will bring it down and at the end of the day people just want to get their license and get on the road and especially with us living in such a rural place there's not much transport here so we do need to we do need the car we do need to get on the road as soon as possible after we pass our test after we pass our um theory and get our lessons behind us we do need to get on the road as soon as possible all right clet lovely chatting to you clet odonal owner of odonal school of motoring simply asking a little bit of understanding courtesy and basic manners internalize your frustrations if you have them but why scar another person's day when you've forgotten about it 10 minutes later and they could be bothered by it for the next day all right then thanks colette thank you greg lovely chatting thank you bye bye take care of yourself thank you very much indeed for that uh aqua says we're all disgusted with the mismanagement of public money in rte but delve into the same mismanagement of public money uh that our public sector that's where you'll get your eyes open well it's it is public sector as well hi greg wonder about these people on the radio remember the election voting machine scandal but the taxpayer public money still paying rent for these machines and the claiming of expenses and not in the doll and all it could go on and on and on how many i don't know uh i think that was resolved but i do know it's going to cost 8,000 a year to store the set for the late late show musical which is not insignificant all right we'll we'll be back with you tomorrow morning at nine stay tuned though john breslin is on the way as it turns 12 o'clock we get a news update now from donal caverno thank you greg good afternoon
