What is the opening banter and purpose of this month’s Talking Club episode?
Well hello, hello, hello and welcome to this month's edition of Talking Club. With me, Aileen Hendry, and the ever present
Neil Middleton.
Excellent. How are you doing today, Neil?
I am present.
Is that all you've got to say to him?
I am present. I am here.
Okay, in that case let's crack on because there's obviously not going to be a lot of chit chat today folks, let's crack on and do the scores on the doors. Would you like the breakdown before the grand total?
Yes, give me the breakdown before the grand total and just scrambling for a pen as you speak. Here we go. Right, good old dopo boo, smarter than the average bear. What's that off of?
The breakdown. But One hundred and seventy six webinars.
One hundred and
seventy six. One seven six.
Go go go boo boo. Smarter than average bear.
Ecology non bats. eighty eight zero. Business skills fifty six. No ecology eighty eight zero. Not eight eight eight zero.
Oh god yeah, okay, right.
This is going well so far. Business skills fifty six five six. Talking back ninety four nine four. Product reviews sixty six zero. Ask me anything twenty three two three. I think next month I'm gonna do it in the style of a bingo collar. That would be good fun. So that gives us a grand total of five hundred and forty four webinars.
That's
Five, four,
four.
Total number of Ours for your listening and viewing pleasure. It's You should have iron metanon.
Six six six.
It's six six six.
The number of the beast.
Yes.
How do Aileen and Neil break down the webinar score totals for the club?
Excellent. Go go go boo boo. Smarter than the average. Did you actually know where that comes from?
Yeah it's Choki Bear. Joki Bear.
Our listening audience wouldn't necessarily know that. It was it would be before their time.
Yeah, it's far as oldies.
Well, off.
Do do you want to go down that road?
Do you want to? Those of us who are of a slightly more sophisticated age. No, don't suppose the age is Not necessarily
sophisticated. Yeah,
okay, right. So it's for
I don't see that Yogi Bear was very sophisticated.
Anyway, Yogi had a was it a son? Or was it just a younger bear? 'Cause there was the two of them. There was Yogi Bear and then there was a little bear.
Yes. And
the little beer was called Boo
Boo
Boo Boo, right? Hence why Yogi would sometimes say smarter than the average bear Boo Boo. Was it called Boobu, the second bear?
Yes, it was called Boo Boo. My goodness.
Anyway, why did we
decide to do this right now?
You can also see why I was getting confused because the first time you incorporated the zero into the scores, you did bats one, seven, six. Ecology non bats eighty two. Eight zero and I've written down eighty eight and then I'm writing down the zero and I'm thinking I can't be eight hundred I I was very confused.
More than usual.
Yes, I'm sure all the stars were totally following what was going on there.
If you were, then thank you so much for sticking with us.
And drop us an email and you never know, Eileen might send out a Wii gift to the first person that drops us an email to say they were this month's listener. Just a little gift.
Do we only get a month one listener a month? Oh
we get a lot more, but we can't give out five hundred and fifty six, five, six, six on however many years. You just
said five hundred and fifty six, not five hundred and sixty six. That would be five five six.
Hundreds of prices. Okay, there's got to be some incentive. I don't know what the price will be. Lunch with Nelly? That wouldn't it be a prize worth having, wouldn't it?
Take him away, please.
Imagine if somebody from the other side of the world That would get rather expensive.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, tell you. Although Lars Peterson of Peterson Electronics owes me a beer.
Does he?
But he said, this was many months ago, that he would allow me to buy him the beer if I paid for his plane ticket from Sweden to Scotland.
I'm quite sure there's a there's a deal to be done on Easy J O Ryanair.
That'd be a bloody expensive beer I'll tell you. I I'd basically said if I was ever in Sweden That game up here there. Anyway, those are pretty impressive scores on the doors.
We
well
Where on earth is this going today? Oh, I
don't know, I don't know.
