Transcript

Speaker: Hey everyone, welcome to Tuck Your Shirt In, the podcast where we uncover the funniest, cringiest and most unforgettable school stories. And trust me, we're not just hearing from students, we've got the teachers who had to survive it all too.

Speaker: You're listening to Tuck Your Shirt In with me, John Hassan, my brother Luke Hassan and our producer and former teacher, Scott Burrows. Let's get into it.

Speaker: Hello everyone, how are you doing? ah All right. How's it going? All good. John, that's an interesting top you've got on. Yes. ah Mystery football kits.

Speaker: It's a Christmas present from yourself. um That's the one. Yep. Okay. It's a lovely shirt. Can you stand up and give us a bit of a twirl so we can describe it to our audio listeners?

Speaker: So, Scott, do you want to give a description of what you're looking at? I'm going to go with a white and teal.

Speaker: shirt with an absolutely insane sponsor of Cementos Fortezella, which I'm presuming is some form of construction company. um Office Deep. I've never seen a shirt with more sponsors.

Speaker: Apart from the one that you made, Apart from the one that I created for our five-a-side team once upon a time. it's not It's not your average football shirt, is it? It's incredible. It's definitely got quite few sponsors. for For anyone who wants to to see this shirt, is it the ah Away shirt or is it the alternative? Yeah, I think it's the twenty two twenty three Away leon fc um That's not Leon French. Yes, no. What team is this, John?

Speaker: The Mexican second division team. Yeah, Leon. Nice. Okay. Okay, Brill. Right. Incredible shirt. Amazing. love that.

Speaker: Yeah. Also, I think it was a little bit late. Sorry, John. I thought I had ordered it. Yeah, it came about mid-January, I think. Those are the best Christmas presents. They just turn up. like like It's like a second Christmas. Exactly.

Speaker: Thank you. ah So, John, how's your um week in comedy been? Yeah, I had a couple of gigs this week. Oh, very nice. Yeah, they're open mic nights. They're always a bit hit and miss. You never know so how many people are going to be there. I don't know why I'm just imagining like one guy a trench coat in in the ah in this crowd.

Speaker: Tell us some comedy, please. I thought you meant in a trench coat and he was just going to be... Oh, it's flasher. We'll move on. Flasher. Flasher. At one of the gigs, yeah, there was about eight people there and they were all about 19 and it was absolutely horrible. right Really?

Speaker: Yeah. That's interesting. I didn't i thought I assumed everyone was like older at comedy gigs. it was Usually it is. Yeah, this was a bit of an unusual one. it was um But everyone's references were going completely over their heads. One guy was talking about ah DMX, I think, at one point. They had no idea who he was. Yeah.

Speaker: They're like 20 years, too so too young. And then ah and the the the guy running the night, he was great, but he went out to the pub and was just dragging people in. He got these they couple lads of lads who were playing darts in and and then they then proceeded to sort of take the piss out of him because he looked a bit like other people. So then they just didn't come back for the second half. But that's... ah Can't blame him. That's the way it goes.

Speaker: I feel like if you pulled into a comedy gig... the last thing you want is to just be absolutely destroyed by the comedy. Singled out.

Speaker: Why have you brought us here? Can you come in and do us a favour?

Speaker: I yeah did another one in ah Derby, which is a, was that like a music studio, which is pretty cool. It was probably but about 10 people at this one. So, you know, it's pretty low numbers, but I was speaking to one of the other comics who was on, I think it was her, it was only a second gig and we were just chatting. And then in the middle of the conversation, she just turned to me and said, you've got a really funny face, you know?

Speaker: It's a stranger I've never met Just said that to me as if it was a compliment. um And then, yeah, she just said, do you use it in your act? I don't know. mean, never I thought my face shut guess guess I should. Yeah. yeah but Have you thought about that conversation?

Speaker: because Yeah, I have actually, because I think when you when you start doing comedy, you sort of get used to taking the piss out of yourself as as a sort of a defense mechanism. You know, you sort of point out your flaws and you take control of it. So...

Speaker: was a little bit like, what the hell? but you know Imagine if I'd said that to her. it's just not You've got a weird face. but She probably would have found it as a compliment.

Speaker: Maybe. you said it but i was saying because Obviously you're having a conversation, but the whole time she's been like thinking, the heart you've been thinking you're great conversation the whole time. She's just thinking, he's got a really funny face. The whole time.

Speaker: kind of I mean, funny isn't the word I'd use for your face either. I think I'd go with scary. ah That's fair. A scary face. Creepy. Creepy is more like that. creep Yeah, creepy is fair. I think it's because of I've got quite a big, and when I smile, I've got quite a big smiley face which can look creepy and I've referenced that in my stand-up that i'll do look a little bit like a clown or like an evil clown.

Speaker: so You could like, I reckon you'd be quite good. I know, you um remember I came to that acting night you did which is quite good I thought you were quite good. um I think you could do like a serial killer or something.

Speaker: Yeah, I think I just look like villains generally from like a lot of ah different films so yeah. Okay, well. Young Willem Dafoe. If anyone is looking for to cast a white blonde villain, please get in touch. took your show any welcome yeah Any World War II films coming out, perfect.

Speaker: Yeah, we've got you cast. We've got you cast sorted.

Speaker: So think now's the time where we reflect on our the wonderful lives we've had and we dive into some of our own stories from the past. And I think the ah the burden with this week has passed to myself, um thanks to thanks to the others' ah sharing of their stories.

Speaker: So... Now, the guys, I think the guys think you both know the ah the ending to this story. However, it did take a little while to get to the ending. um So if you if you're ready, guys, ah oh I'll plow ahead with this one if you're okay with that. Yeah, crack on. let's let's all'll um Let's lay the turf.

Speaker: let's Let's get set. So um ah I often tell my wife, I say, what she says, like oh, what were your school friends like? The only words I think I can describe is just like a bunch of absolute animals.

Speaker: I've I've never met anyone else in my life who's like that. ah don't know if that's just the same for all school friends, but certainly my friends, I think you're just an absolute group of animals.

Speaker: um burden dis I wouldn't disagree. i wouldn't disagree, yeah. Stoic silence. now I think, yeah, I think when you put it down to our friendship our friendship group, and obviously me and John having a very similar one compared to yours, i think it's a very different setting.

Speaker: ah vi you Hopefully we'll get them on as guests anyway. Nice guys. i Lovely the people. Animals. Absolute animals. I agree. So I'll set the scene.

Speaker: So we wanted to escape like all young adults do who are in school. And we wanted to go on our first lads holiday. So I think think, I reckon we were only 15 at this time. So it might be in the end of year 10, end of our high school career. Yeah.

Speaker: And something that we could that wasn't too far away from home. So we had a lovely camping trip to Ross-on-Wye. Quite an idyllic place if you've if you've never been. Do you know it, Scott?

Speaker: I know Ross-on-Wye well. Ross-on-Wye, yeah. Nice little place, isn't it? Spent many an afternoon in Ross-on-Wye. Probably not a place you'd take ah sort 20, 15-year-old teenage boys, is it?

Speaker: Well, it depends what you're up to. But so

Speaker: but not a place you usually think of a lad's holiday. But a camping holiday nonetheless. um ah i was just thinking about this earlier. I thought, God, the Inbetweeners have literally made an episode about um camping holiday. And I was thinking, I think this might be worse.

Speaker: than a TV show taking the mick out of camping holidays. Anyway, so 20 of us decided to go to Ross and Wife. um I think we just left school as well, halfway through the day.

Speaker: We just walked out and and just went on holiday. You know, a time to drink beers, get some independence, um you know, trying to cook as a group of 15-year-olds who have no idea how to look after themselves.

Speaker: We've all been mommied. we We set up our tent pitch. and We had probably three or four tents between us all, um surrounded by lovely families, which I don't think they were expecting to see a group of prepubescent boys turn up.

Speaker: um But like like all the... Like all boys, we like boys of that age who wanted to start drinking. So we got the beers. Oh, that was great. Having a great time.

Speaker: And then, you know, one thing leads to the next. And we think, I know who's got a bright idea. Let's build a fire. That's the perfect time. That's what you want to do, isn't it Do stupid things. That's what you did when you were 15.

Speaker: So we start to build the fire. ah this is quite nice. think it's quite romantic in it in a lot of ways. You build a nice little fire. can cook some food. Maybe we'll throw some jacket potatoes on. How wholesome it's like. Jacket potatoes. Jacket potatoes.

Speaker: Marshmallows. Yeah. You think, oh, this will be a lovely little thing. So, you know, so and things can go awry from that sweet Scout Cub camping trip.

Speaker: Someone, we've been drinking as well. We're 15. We're not used to this. We want to feel like we're big boys, but we're not. And then someone decides to start smoking a little bit of the Mary Jane.

Speaker: um Some other let listeners might and know what that is. um I think it's from that point onwards, I probably knew it was going to end um with a surprise.

Speaker: So it definitely sent me ah quite funny. I went running off into the woods having some fun. I think there was a few whiteys pulled, people freaking out, ah you know, 15 years old, weren't very big.

Speaker: I came back from that adventure in the woods we'd all gone for a big deep dark spirit walk in the woods and then I got rolled up into a carpet and then rolled around on the floor where did the carpet come from No, I don't know where that carpet came from. I think it might have been... They've just stolen it. I'll say it. Some poor couple in their caravan. Luke and his friends have just ran in. Oh, God.

Speaker: Yeah, I was saying to the guys before we started, I said, this story doesn't really sound real, but it is. Yeah. um So as fires go, like if you've ever been to a festival, you've ever been camping, the bigger the better is usually how it goes.

Speaker: And you want to make it as big as possible. so everything starts getting chucked on the fire, all bits and bobs. Now, I think at this time, i think some of the other parents ah and families on the campsite are starting to get a little bit worried.

Speaker: So, and it feels horrible now because I put myself in their position. You've gone for this little lovely camping trip and all a sudden these... idiot young men and have turned up. So this little kid comes over with a a big bottle of Dr Pepper and offers us some soft drinks. says, oh, I think you might need some soft drinks. and these pepper These parents have sent over this little lad just to try and calm us down.

Speaker: Very lovely lad. You know, we're very nice still. um He goes back to his parents, but that's just a little cut away from the story for you. um So now it is getting dark. The fire is getting very much out of control. You know, the camping chairs are starting to go onto it.

Speaker: and And then for some reason, i don't know how he this became. And this is someone I think of at school. And I think, well, i wonder what's happened to him now.

Speaker: but ah But our lovely friend, ah i'm going to call him Brian, decided to really try and outdo us all. um Pulled his trousers down, backed up quite slowly,

Speaker: And I'd say quite fragile fragilely, fragile in ah in a fragile manner, backed up to the fire and decided to... um do himself a lovely giant log on that fire. And he marked it as his own.

Speaker: her but That is hideous. And then and I think then ah i have think then it was bedtime. so that he did he um Did he not hurt himself? How did he manage to avoid burning himself? No, i think I think he did get singed a little bit.

Speaker: He got singed a little bit. ah You know, with teenage boys, started to get those hairs in places that never used to grow. And he definitely got a little singe. um But yeah, it's all coming back to me now. ah ver v very i've I've definitely put a lot of the stories from my school years into a deep, dark hole in my mind. Into a vault.

Speaker: and just Into a vault that was very much locked. ah And now I'm reliving it now. Yeah, to did so... Did it escalate to that point? Were there other things going on the fire before that? Yeah.

Speaker: It was you know the law classic camping chairs, and biscuits, ah beer cans. I think we might put a gas canister on there as well at some point. lovely Really bad stuff. and then ah I don't think there was a wee on the fire because, again, if you put the wee on the fire, then you've got to put it out, aren't you? so we we were thinking quite clearly.

Speaker: see but with Just to stink out the whole place. Did it smell? Can you remember? Did it smell? I can't remember a smell with that memory.

Speaker: But there you go. There's my, uh, there's my story for the week. Yeah. And if anything else comes up ah from that story, I'll, I'll be sure to share it with us on the podcast. i think I'm going to, I think I want to go back to the, to the ah to the elderly couple that sent over the young boy with Dr Pepper.

Speaker: I feel like adding adding some sugar to the scenario of lads who have been drinking all day is not the way to go. ay No, no, no, no. God, I put myself in their shoes so much now.

Speaker: i say, oh man, who are they doing? What would you do if you were on holiday with your family and you saw a bunch of 15-year-olds in a tent making a lot of noise with a fire? What would you do now? I definitely wouldn't send my child over to them.

Speaker: That's the first thing I wouldn't do. I'd keep them well away. Yeah, that was a questionable choice on their part. It's almost like they're scared to go over, send a little kid over. the envoy I won't be mean to the young kids. Like, that's fine. Just send send little Johnny over and hope for the best.

Speaker: Yeah. Oh, actually, there might have been some Johnny's thrown on the fire. See how these react to heat. thought to see how these react to heat like Yeah.

Speaker: Well, they're not getting used properly, so... No, I mean... 15 years old. not Not by you lot. Like, no way. No. Yeah. ah god I don't know any pictures from that, actually. I want to go back to, again, a bit more on the carpet. um So you got rolled up into a carpet, and they they just sort of roll you around at that point.

Speaker: Yeah, just seen just to and fro, rolling around, having a bit of fun. Strew him on the fire for a bit. I'm not going to put him on the fire, see how long this takes. It'll be fine. Yeah.

Speaker: be like a Cuban fajita. Oh, you know, now now and not now you mention it, I reckon we had some ah ah spray deodorant back in the... Flamethrower type um situation. I think it was a lot of flamethrower type situation. I think that is what led to the eventual ah poop on the fire.

Speaker: I think it started with the flamethrower. I once took a lynx can and like that was practically empty, ah took the lid off, put a piece of string in it and like lit it. And it does go like a little bit like a rocket.

Speaker: um When you, it's yeah, not, not something. Don't please don't do that. People, by the way, that is extremely dangerous. and It was extremely stupid of me. um I did it in my garden, pointing down the garden. was very fortunate not to have it back up into the house. Oh, geez. So don't do that. That was incredibly stupid.

Speaker: Oh, ah ah we also, realized what I was thinking, and what you were saying were two different things there. we We did a lot of the, you know, the farts with the ah with the lighter and the flame. Oh yeah. Yeah. Okay. Yeah.

Speaker: I think, I think I have to try and separate what was jackass and what was, um, I mean, that was heavily in my life in, um, your, you know, age. Yeah. i Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker: We were probably still a bit too young for for Jackass at that point. I think for anyone listening, if you do want to know what that was, look at what Jackass was. ah It featured Johnny Knoxville ah amongst others.

Speaker: It was a show where a group of sort of 18 to 30 year olds just did really stupid stuff um to get themselves in as much pain as possible ah doing stunts and and things like But yeah.

Speaker: Certainly worth a go, but yeah, had a lot of influence on us as 15-year-old boys. words It's like thing at the start of the show, used to say, please don't try this at home.

Speaker: and Immediately, what you want to do is just try this at home, like straight away. I think it was almost, that there was r and you know, people say it's your entire personality. I think... um jackass was almost our entire personality at that age i feel like like even the look came into things for you guys like the the bamma jira like sort of johnny knoxville steve-o kind of vibe yeah i think we were we were also just literally saying like oh this is something something this is rolling up in a carpet and uh getting kicked by a bunch guys like What, just to an imaginary camera as if you're filming it? Yeah, think it is ringing lot of bells. Oh, this is rolling off the bed and hitting the floor from a triple bunk bed. This is pooing on a fire, obviously. You know what, I think that might have been there. This is pooing on a fire.

Speaker: Well, no, I'll beep that. This is Brian. This is Brian. ah this is ah this is brian so

Speaker: ah I do wonder, day you know do wonder like the is this in his head? you think he thinks about this or do you think this has gone in his head? When was the last time you spoke to him? I think I saw him about 10 years ago, something like that.

Speaker: I imagine that didn't come up. It didn't come up. It was more like, oh yeah. was With his family. Yeah, is I think he was with his sister. Oh, do you remember that time you peed on the fire? Yeah.

Speaker: yeah oh god yes that's rogue that's oh it's horrendous isn't it yeah yeah I can safely say when we when we did trips away and stuff like that no one no one peered on a fire from our lot so yeah I think you've I think you've got definitely got the animals in uh in your friendship group Luke

Speaker: Producer Scott, have you got anything to throw us from the emails this week? I have. This is actually from ah from your cousin ah in Australia.

Speaker: Oh! Thank Niamh, for sending this in. um So, obviously, I like i like this. you um and um nice mean I can try,

Speaker: but i can try and not know Absolutely shocking. ba going sticks to you I'm going to stick to my normal voice, I think. Yeah, it's probably a good idea.

Speaker: at her high school, so we're we're in high school, and in Queensland, um they had apps on their phones. So i think Niamh is a little bit younger than us, to to say the least. um which And on their phones, they had an app which allowed their phone to be used as a universal remote. um That seems bad already. ah That seems really bad.

Speaker: think safely safely it only works on Android phones, so not iPhones. So not many people could do it because most people used iPhones, she says. so ah But they used to have like teachers just baffled as to why the technology would would not work. and like things pe like They'd have IT t people coming in to try and fix the projectors, when really it was just people in the classroom just messing with it. And as a teacher, when you have technical issues in a classroom,

Speaker: everything just turns into full panic mode. It's like, you're just like, especially if your whole lesson like just refers to the use of technology. um But when she was in year 11, her family moved to a different state and she actually had the app on her phone.

Speaker: um no one in the No one in the school or in the class um knew about this app or knew about and anything. And I'm... I'm scared to put this out because if this goes anywhere and like and people realize this is an app, this could lead to some absolutely horrendous few months for people in school.

Speaker: and So I apologize any teachers listening to this. and But this app, I'm not going to name the app just just to make people have to search for it more. um She would often just, she'd get bored and she'd often just start cranking the volume up or down if a video was played. and Teachers would often use a freeze setting on the projector.

Speaker: Yeah. So that the class could see the board and they could do some of their laptop or whatever. And she'd just turn off turn it off and get a little giggle about what the teacher was Googling or their emails. One teacher remarked that that they there must be a ghost in the room. um The maths teacher had the whole classroom changed because the board didn't always didn't work and always turned off.

Speaker: Oh no, that's bad. That's bad. She was once in a classroom where the teacher was using an overhead projector to project the image onto paper, onto the whiteboard. um And we zoomed it all the way in and he kept adjusting the projector.

Speaker: I just didn't understand what was randomly zooming in, which is absolutely brilliant. ah So, he used to have music lessons at school and they would often be jo halfway through her maths lessons.

Speaker: um And she came back into the from the music one ah music lesson one day and there was no one there. Everyone's books were on the desk, so assumed that she'd gone out to do some type of activity. And on the teacher's desk was an open packet of chocolate Freddos, like the little chocolates, which are extortionately expensive nowadays, but we'll move on from there.

Speaker: And she just decided that, you know, the open packet Freddos, as I think most students would probably do, she just took two of them and ate them. um the class The class returned and the Freddos were a prize for the winners of the task. Wow. The teacher put that had 12 chocolates in the packet, ready to hand out the ah at the the to the winning groups, and then was really confused as a rowdy 10, and literally like lost his mind saying, he you know there there are 12, this is ridiculous, there's definitely a ghost in my classroom, like convinced that they'd gone.

Speaker: um And she actually ended up confessing to the teacher, um which thought it used to be hilarious. but about About the whole thing? or just every ah About the whole thing. and it's very Very, very well.

Speaker: Which I absolutely love. um She's also added like a second little story to the end of the novel. So we'll save that one for next time because it's also a very good very very good little story. right But that is not absolutely brilliant. Thank you. I i absolutely love... so i When I was at...

Speaker: When I used to work in, because we actually used to work in an office before, obviously COVID, now work at home. ah yeah I used to sit behind another bank of desks so I could see their screen in front of me.

Speaker: And I ah ah plugged my wireless mouse into the person's laptop in front of me. And every time he turned around to talk to me, I'd just like open things or like turn his screen around and stuff like that. And he'd turn back and there'd just be like random web pages open.

Speaker: I was just losing my mind right after that. That would be so good. Oh, I love it it. It's such little things. over time, it just gets more and more funny. I never questioned it at one point. I turned his screen sideways.

Speaker: know he didn't know how to turn it back. So yeah, he just tilted his head and was just looking at the screen 90 degrees. Absolutely. That is that evil. That is absolutely evil. put Well, yeah you know what I'm like, don't you? So it probably would have been new if you if you've worked together. It probably would be. a kind yeah I mean, definitely. We could have worked together. You chose not to do that.

Speaker: That's true. Yeah. Yeah. I couldn't, I couldn't hack being a teacher. I tried teaching. I lasted three months in teacher training and and gave it up. And then, uh, Scott persisted for, was it four years, three years?

Speaker: Six years. and Six years. didn't realise it was that long. years Yeah. Um, um But yeah, me and John could have worked at the same school if he hadn't given it up, which would have been... Honestly, it's probably for the best that he did give it up because there were no longer kid no one would have wanted that. with like no We would have got no work done.

Speaker: We would have full... We would have had classes turning against each other. Yeah, it just wouldn't have been fun. It would been all-out war in the school. We would have worked on the same... Well, possibly on the same floor, but definitely in the same building as well, which...

Speaker: That's just not good for anyone's morale. Well, thank you, Niamh, for your email. we I don't think we we don't know each other very well at all. um And just hearing that, I can tell you're absolutely brilliant. That is genius. I absolutely love that. I'd have loved that, someone doing that my school. I'd have had to hold it I would not be able to keep that in.

Speaker: This is the part of the podcast where my my like junior self, as... a person is like, oh my god, that is incredible, that is so funny. As a teacher, that would have been the most horrendous situation to be in. And that, like, I could never turn my brain off from that. i Like, I'm not a teacher anymore. I don't see myself as a teacher anymore. I never want to go back into that profession.

Speaker: But... I still have that thought oh, those poor, but those poor, poor people, because you do, you do genuinely just feel for them in that situation. Like, I couldn't, I would have just been losing my mind. i would have been sweating. There would have been like full on drips coming down there. Like, no, that's just not.

Speaker: Absolutely incredible. Thank you so much for sharing that. I just, look, I look, I just, I keep thinking about it and thinking like how long this must've gone on for. And then she gets to herself in the previous school and then it all of a sudden would stop.

Speaker: They were like, oh, have IT been up and fixed this? It seems to be working now. I think my highlight was the overhead projector. I mean, oh, that is gold. Zoomed it in. As someone that works in IT as well, I imagine that department got a lot of abuse from the teachers. Probably thinking like, for God's sake, just like, they are useless. They can't do anything. Can you not fix this?

Speaker: Glaring issue that I am having. I love the fact that no one picked up. it was just one of the kids with an app on their It was it's such an innocent thing as well. so It's just a little thing, like very innocent, but like such long lasting That story alone that story alone is the reason that the ban for phones has come into schools in the Just stuff like that. Obviously, you've got all of the online bullying and stuff like that that goes on as well. And having time away from the phone. But those sorts of incidents must happen all over the country, every day, on a day be on a daily basis.

Speaker: Absolutely amazing. Would love to have been in the classroom to see that. Oh, so was it the maths lesson or was music? Maths. She did a music lesson. She kicked it away from a music lesson.

Speaker: Obviously, because she enjoyed that. Obviously, maths was not her favourite subject. She just enjoyed messing with the teacher.

Speaker: It makes me... We had... um we had ah We used to have music lessons. um ah And you do feel... Like you say, you feel for the teachers now. Now you're like you think you're their age.

Speaker: But at the time, it was fantastic. We had these supply teachers to come in. And I don't know how it started, but... Whenever he used to leave the room, I don't know why he was leaving the room so much in fairness.

Speaker: That does raise other questions. so Just to have a little cry of the car. slightly Yeah, slightly. getting some apparatus. Every time he'd leave the room, we'd all start tapping in the table going,

Speaker: and then he'd come in and we'd be dead silent. Yeah. if if we each did it week after week after week after week and he just yeah he'd come back here I heard that I heard that all of I heard it and i mean I bet it bet it was better coming into the classroom and hearing in that than coming in and smelling a shit in the middle of the floor as it was your oh yeah I guess so yeah it wasn't too bad I just remember one time here you know the Coombs tape recorder which I think still exists in schools they I don't know that they're still recording on tape

Speaker: remember those tape recorders? and yeah I went to school in another age, didn't I? I remember one time he e pressed record yeah yeah and like in the most unsubtle way, and we knew what was going on. And i think even then, I think we still did it. We're like, we can't resist. We've got to do it again. Get it on tape.

Speaker: yeah And he came again, I've recorded you. recorded you. It's like, oh, great. Thanks. And I'm pretty sure ah that teacher came in, Scott. um oh the yeah I think they sent in the big guns. The big guns. Scary.
