RIP WILD MAN❤️you’ll never be forgotten big man.
Theres been a serious lack of wildman lately! Return of the king!
Tommy Tokes he went on a 2 week booze cruise with his TH-cam clout
Cider binge 😂😂
Tommy Tokes sun sea and ghb
@@Gblonkers 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
Tommy Tokes 😂😂💪🏻
Shaun and Wildman your lifelong friendship makes you guys an ideal team to get the message out. I don't have a criminal record. I live in Arizona. Your experience has already taught me so much. I'm able to live vicariously through you. Now that you both have taught me just how bad the Arizona prison system is, let's just say the line I walk is a little straighter. Thank you again for helping me be a better person.
nobody has ever made crocs look tough until now
Crocs and a slazenger top are allways a killer combo👌🤣🤣
We found a croc skull hanging in a tree at the mouth of The Finniss river NT Oz . . back in day (that I kept for many yrs although illegal without a permit) that would have come from a 5.5m plus individual (it had a bullet hole between the eyes so was from olden croc shooting days) that river . . Finniss was where Oz's largest crocodile was caught . . one 'Sweetheart' some 6m's plus. . who had taken to attacking boats & was declared a pest (its stuffed & on show in Darwin museum now) , we fished (netted) the waters where Sweetheart was caught (Sweethearts lookout ) which is about 20 kms from the mouth & which is a seriously creepy bit of water . . black & deep water , some 'funny' tales about that section of water
@@benwinter2420 they were talking about Croc shoes not crocodiles you bloody madman but I love your story
@@benwinter2420i dont believe you mate i think you're fibbin
Those are the stupidest shoes ever.....I would go barefoot over glass rather than be seen in those fairy shoes!!!!
People who sit in prison today with a toilet and tv have this man and a few others like him to thank for that.
The sad part is most of them will never know and dwell in there ignorance thinking it came about without sacrifice
@@hali8580 That is so very true pal. These kids of today have no idea about Borstals etc. Bed packs on Sundays and had to be excellent. Slop out,cockroaches,weekly showers,using same bowl to wash in as padmates, shitty am radio. They would call me a liar?
@@jackmehoffe9372 it was bro. Im too young for borstal but did young offenders institutes. Bed packs every Sunday for governor inspection. Running on christmas day etc so abit similar.
@@jackmehoffe9372 It waspunishment then for sure. Not like now, holiday camp today due to all human rights etc.
@@jackmehoffe9372 yeh of course. There was 2 versions of Scum, a tv version and cinema version. Was very real!. Even the rape part. You wouldnt believe what actually went on unless you was there. Suicides were every few days, hangings weekly.
I just realised, Shaun is the Willy Wonka of dodgy geezers.
@@benwinter2420 shaun is the Aurther daily of dodgy
Lmao Wyatt Deville. Best comment I’ve seen on TH-cam for ages.
@cafe del casual 89
I know why , I was responding to the previous single 'why'
Doffs top-hat.
"Come with me, and you'll be
In a world of post-incarceration,
Take a look and you'll see,
Into a con's imagination
We'll begin with a crim,
Traveling in the world
Chased across nations,
We'll deny pending further investigations"
@@mattnelson9123 Bravo my friend.
Loved this interview I had my phone resting on my pillow by my ear and just lay there until 3am listening lol
I’m an old man now, but my memories are still vivid. I first entered Strangeways as a young Borstal Boy in 1970. Those days REALLY were BRUTAL! Hunger, beatings, officers dressed in black like old SS guards … In permanent semi-darkness, grey, cold; the place resembled a medieval dungeon.
Years later as a long term prisoner passing through, they knew what was coming and started transferring long-term and Cat ‘A’ prisoners out weeks before the riot. I was one of them. My biggest regret in life was not being able to join in the riot and spend 25 days taking that place apart brick by brick, which might have reduced the nightmares and flashbacks I still experience to this day.
Later in life I went abroad and became a professional. Well done Alan, I wish I could have been with you.
O well done! I commend all your pains,
And those yet to come shall share i' the gains;
And now about thy memories tell,
Of things once unseen in a man-made hell;
If walls too had voices they would scream in despair,
As they tell their grim tales and bid thee beware;
Of times distant past though the nightmares remain,
Of something so wicked that this way once came.
As memories fade and passing time numbs,
The sound of the boots like the beating of drums;
Of whistles and bells, the hunger and pain,
While alone in the gloom a child’s tears fell like rain;
As the evil destroyed though three decades past,
Deep inside an old man the little boy laughs;
May their wickedness visited on children bring shame,
A reminder so wicked that this way once came.
Decent bit of poetry that fella. I've just started writing some poems lately myself after not writing one down for over a decade.
Shakespeare is quite the poet. Very apt quote from OP.
This was on another level , absolutely brilliant podcast the 2 escapes are truly gripping the film will be epic ,wildman co hosting again brings that extra dynamic brilliant 😉👍🏻
Loved your one Danny one of my favorites proper decent lad and great storyteller should get him back on Shaun lol !! 👍
Sabrina Hannon thanks 😊
Danny is back on and alan is back on i will do the north interveiws lwith my better haif
@@petermahoney8796 keep it up wild man you and shaun are top at what you do and your knowledge is priceless
Look forward to Danny dawson part 2 thought his 1st one was excellent watch
Wow ALAN I read your book a few years ago but never realised you were a ring leader in the strange ways riot. Your story is an amazing demonstration of human resilience against a racist secretive regime. Hope your movie gets released as I’d love to see it. Good luck in your future projects and wish you all the best
i was in sudbury with lordy, good bloke. genuine soul
When I was a kid, we used to play 'Strangeways'. We basically took a load of stones, broken asbestos, cans, bottles etc. on top of the garage roofs and we'd pick teams of who would be pigs or prisoners. The pigs had to try to make it on top of the garages and arrest us prisoners whilst we pelted them with stones. It was brilliant growing up on a council estate 😁
That is like a real life mod of the cops an robbers game 😂
Great insight into a massive part of his 32 yr stretch.
Mans done fucking amazing to keep all his faculties and I respect that.
Grow up you fiool.
Wildman should get a fitness video out for Christmas.
hahahahah fs stanley san like them old aerobics vids hahaha
Mr Motivator!
Definately one of your top 3 videos you've done so far. Keep up the good work Shaun. Would love some Irish stories on here....
What a bloke could listen to this fellas storeys all day. All the best with the film
I remember visiting my aunts Cathrine as a very young lad, I’m 35 now. Anyway we drove past an I can still remember it now. The camera crew is the vision I have in my mind
If jack whomes is released soon he'd be a great guest on here. One of the biggest crimes in British crime surely. Love going back and re listening to these podcasts. Always here something new every time I listen
My dad was in strange ways at the same time🙌🏻 grew up with this story! Great upload!
Alan Lord and the others from Strangeways Riot are heroes as because of them prison has been reformed no end . From 23 hr bangup ending to being able 2 eat food with 2 doors between you and the bog. No slop outs etc. God bless you m8
Hero 😂 he paved the way for the current holiday camps we have for folk that can't be arsed getting a job
Holiday camps or spice hell holes?
38 podcasts... Seems like only yesterday you was doing the first... Awesome, loved every minute of this story :-)
For sure. One of the best podcast shows I have had the pleasure to watch. Entertaining, educational, humorous, contemplative, intelligent and emotional. Keep up the great work, Shawn and f@#$ all the detractors.
Respect, really eloquent and well explained. You and Wildman are such great interviewers.
Cheers
Shaun near the start of the pod, looking out of shot thinking "I wonder if that chair squeaks less than his" and then rocking on his own to check hahaha
Looking forward this 1 always good with wild man on
Jay Cannon you from Telford
@@jays253 nah mate liverpool
Interesting stuff, this whole riot was before my time as I'm only 27. However, I was watching a documentary filmed in the mid 80's following a few cons around strangeways and a number of them actually predicted a riot of that scale was inevitable given the conditions inside at that time and the animosity between the screws and the prisoners. Top quality interview as always gentlemen.
There's great documentaries that show Alan on the roof however he has a lot more hair
Another great interview gentlemen. Wildman, your story alone deserves a movie. Thanks for all the hard work Shaun 👌
thank you
*We need Danny Dawson for a part 2*
I agree.
100%
Loved that podcast
Awe cheers guys made my day that had 😊👍🏻💪🏻
@@Dannydawson537 respect brother👊
From an ex con at strangeways buzzin to see how you are having such a productive life much respect take care
what a great watch that was shaun, some of the stories are epic, my favourite podcast you have done so far, i cant wait to see how the movie turns out and is a true reflection of what really happened, like you shaun, im 40 so grew up watching the crazyness of the prison riot
I remember watching a documentary about that riot, the boys up on the roof wit a hifi banging out “snap I’ve got the power” 😆 legends ✌🏻
Looking forward to watching this after work.
I read Alan lords book absolutely great , would highly recommend it
Wild man is top class on here, the natural ability to conduct a podcast and keep asking relevant questions is very impressive
Especially for someone who’s new to it
Need a part two with Alan, this was brilliant
Thanks 🙏 again for another world class podcast. What a way to end a fantastic day. 10/10
One of the best ones yet, 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼Lordy is an absolute hero
Hero? What for?
RIP wild man! Always in our heart ♥️
alan's crocs and spred legs was a lot for shaun... he doesn't know where to look at times 😂
Part 2 please Shaun, this was epic mate
Never had the pleasure of meeting Alan but I know a few people who have and they all say how much of a great guy he is.
Great interview Shaun , Alan told some great stories , loving these interviews keep up the good work pal 👍👍
Love Wildman's perpetually raised left eye-brow. RIP.
Shaun you should interview Wes Watson from California.
Brilliant best podcast yet need to get him back on for prison story's gonna get his book 👍👌
Yet another great podcast Shaun, definitely get Alan back on, great stories, cheers!
wildman chose not to have a bird when he knew he was going to be getting sent down 😂😂brilliant man
I would love to see Shaun do a video on what he thinks is a true alternative to prison. I personally think we need to change how we treat ALL offenders as the current situation just isolates people from society and as we can see from the people Shaun interviews WE ARE ALL CAPABLE OF CHANGE
Sick interview lord is s legend keep up the good work Shaun
Best podcast on TH-cam right now
Top quality as usual!
Class interview lads, big respect alan for getting back on track!!
yeah seen him on the strangeways prison riot documentary. had police trying to block out the sound of the men trying to tell the public what atrocities were happening inside. should be a good one this.
@@stebam3241 shaun put a premier on the over day and comment then
No harm in smelling or hugging the lovely tress like! CRACKING INTERVIEW! CHEERS FOR THE UPLOAD LADS ;)
Thanks Alan,intelligent fella,amazing intellect,thank you Shaun and wildman,great story
Our pleasure!
Really enjoyed this one. Well spoken,great stories. Good work lads 👍🏽
"I ate a cabbage on the way from the farmers field" lmfao
Love this episode, would love a second 1 and get into Alan's sort of life story that ended him up in prison in the 1st place etc
Murdered someone during a bank robbery
For me this is probably the best podcast you've ever done the guy is such a character and I don't mean that in a bad way I'm pleased I hope you take that in such a positive why was he such a nice person you said a bad injustice in the prison system to educate himself with a degree as absolutely a testament to his character and is Drive please having back on because I think is absolutely fascinating person thank you things in honour to actually listen to your stories
Shaun you rule!
Prison sucks give people help instead care for people.
Please get Alan Lord back to discuss his childhood/teenage years and where he grew up. Also was he involved in the football firms or the early rave scene in the late 80s
He cant of as he had been in 10 yrs already in 1990
I remember one night after the Thunderdome ,off our heads walking down to Strangeways to give the rioters our support!! Alan is a top lad.Was on the ghost train for 32 years and never backed down to the fuckers once!!
When Alan said he never threw anything off the roof. In the documentary he said he threw the bell off the roof.😂
The strangeways riots changed the British prisons for the better
Wayne Riley your right if it weren’t for Lordy and Taylor prisoners would still be shitting in a bucket
Why should prisons be better? Not much of a deterrent for people committing crime.
I'll watch that movie for sure, after reading the book of course.
One of the best ones Shaun, have Alan back on please.
Absolutely amazing guest..
What a man
Brilliant interview with a smart bloke. I was 9 when strangeway`s kicked off. The man smashing slates over his head and snap blaring out was how I remember it!
Absolutely gripping alan and others fighting for prisoners literally gripping true story massive respect tommy b
Big shout to Alan Lord. What a watch that was.. 👏🏾
Great podcast. Really likeable guy and a great story teller.
That was the best interview ive seen yet massive message about the prison system and some of the evil things that go on behind them walls so big peace and respect from tommy b
Love my weekly dose of Wild Man!! Great episode Shaun gonna order this guy's book for sure.
