1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:05,040
Speaker 1: It's just the aroma in the shitdio at the moment

2
00:00:05,120 --> 00:00:07,000
Speaker 1: is amazing. We haven't had this man in here for

3
00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:10,360
Speaker 1: so long. It's like a flea bath and sounds like

4
00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:12,680
Speaker 1: a dog on heat. To be honest with you, and

5
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:16,880
Speaker 1: the doghouse Australia, the Fitzgerald family is loving.

6
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:17,599
Speaker 2: This TV show.

7
00:00:17,640 --> 00:00:20,840
Speaker 1: Tuesday night, seven thirty on Channel ten, Doctor Chris Brown,

8
00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:25,280
Speaker 1: good morning, my pheromones.

9
00:00:25,560 --> 00:00:27,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, into the room and I love that.

10
00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:29,400
Speaker 3: Do you want to start on the TV show before

11
00:00:29,400 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 3: we rip in with a couple of side jokes about

12
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:32,720
Speaker 3: your relationships? So where would you like to start today?

13
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:35,720
Speaker 2: Why don't we just go by convention, a normal pattern,

14
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:36,880
Speaker 2: start with a TV show?

15
00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:39,919
Speaker 3: Okay, look to that, mate. I think what's really special

16
00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:43,120
Speaker 3: about this show? And they talk about all different animals

17
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:45,960
Speaker 3: and all different ages, but the dogs and the therapy

18
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:47,960
Speaker 3: and what a dog can bring to a family, even

19
00:00:47,960 --> 00:00:50,360
Speaker 3: an individual, is something so special.

20
00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:53,880
Speaker 2: It's beautiful, isn't it. And you see those moments of

21
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:56,680
Speaker 2: fragility of people walking in and feeling like they need

22
00:00:56,720 --> 00:00:59,319
Speaker 2: something else in their life, something extra, something to kind

23
00:00:59,320 --> 00:01:02,400
Speaker 2: of make them whole again, and and that the power

24
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 2: of a dog to do that is quite remarkable and

25
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:08,080
Speaker 2: seeing that little connection that's made across a across a

26
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:12,319
Speaker 2: crowded room and it's it's just a it's just a

27
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:14,720
Speaker 2: beautiful thing, and realize it makes you realize just how

28
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 2: how wholesome the connection between it person can be. And

29
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,040
Speaker 2: you know, the show is all about good people meeting

30
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:25,119
Speaker 2: up with good good dogs. And and we we make

31
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:27,399
Speaker 2: one promise, which is more humping per hour than marrit

32
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 2: at first. We deliver. We deliver on most most episodes.

33
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 3: Mainly on the leg Yeah, yeah, yeah.

34
00:01:36,040 --> 00:01:38,080
Speaker 1: Can I just say as well, and I'm glad you

35
00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:39,679
Speaker 1: showed this episode because it.

36
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:41,280
Speaker 2: Doesn't always work out for Fairblou.

37
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 1: The biggest one for me was the guy who served

38
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:48,680
Speaker 1: for Australia and Afghans in Afghanistan in the military and

39
00:01:48,760 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 1: he had PTSD Sam right right, so he was struggling

40
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:54,840
Speaker 1: at home. He wanted a dog. He goes in there

41
00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:57,920
Speaker 1: and it was such a heartbreaking episode because he thought

42
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:00,400
Speaker 1: that this dog was going to be all over him

43
00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 1: and the dog wasn't.

44
00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,720
Speaker 2: I didn't like him, you know, it was the dog

45
00:02:04,120 --> 00:02:04,680
Speaker 2: wasn't up to.

46
00:02:04,640 --> 00:02:06,280
Speaker 3: The owner to make the effort with the dog.

47
00:02:06,400 --> 00:02:08,840
Speaker 2: He was trying everything brown, he wasn't he But you

48
00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:12,079
Speaker 2: see this because the dogs have had their world turn

49
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,160
Speaker 2: upside down. They might have been on the streets, then

50
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 2: they've been in the shelter and their own only human

51
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:19,440
Speaker 2: contact are the cares at the shelter, and they kind

52
00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:22,400
Speaker 2: of bond with them and they believe they're their world.

53
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,160
Speaker 2: So when a stranger walks in, you can't blame them.

54
00:02:25,160 --> 00:02:28,000
Speaker 2: After all their upside down life up until that point,

55
00:02:28,200 --> 00:02:29,920
Speaker 2: they're not going to rush to someone new and go, oh,

56
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 2: you're my person.

57
00:02:30,639 --> 00:02:32,800
Speaker 3: But think of the stranger. I mean, you're looking looking

58
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:34,880
Speaker 3: for some sort of support, some sort of love, some

59
00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 3: sort of community which you're missing outside your life. You

60
00:02:37,680 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 3: turn up and the dog doesn't even want you. You just,

61
00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:41,839
Speaker 3: oh god, what are now?

62
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:44,320
Speaker 2: It takes time. That's where, doll, That's where you know,

63
00:02:44,639 --> 00:02:47,239
Speaker 2: I hate to I hate to ruin the illusion of television,

64
00:02:47,639 --> 00:02:50,120
Speaker 2: but that's where maybe in the space of five minutes

65
00:02:50,160 --> 00:02:52,639
Speaker 2: you don't see it. Maybe switch the need to come back.

66
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:55,720
Speaker 2: Don't switch the dog over. You do though in that instance,

67
00:02:55,800 --> 00:02:57,360
Speaker 2: like what do you do for him? Fill his pockets

68
00:02:57,360 --> 00:03:01,840
Speaker 2: with treats or something that that helps? It helps time,

69
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,480
Speaker 2: isn't that, Brownie? It's time? So did he have to

70
00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,080
Speaker 2: keep coming back to see the dog. Yeah, but in

71
00:03:07,120 --> 00:03:09,960
Speaker 2: the end they didn't actually make a great connection, and

72
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:12,960
Speaker 2: so it wasn't it wasn't really the dog. Yeah. But

73
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:15,000
Speaker 2: if you do a few little things, like you know,

74
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:16,560
Speaker 2: if you if you take them for a little walk,

75
00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:18,919
Speaker 2: or if you if you make them sit and give

76
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:21,359
Speaker 2: them a treat, do something that connects you with them,

77
00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,320
Speaker 2: all of a sudden you start to you start to

78
00:03:24,360 --> 00:03:28,320
Speaker 2: make that you know that that that crucial understanding that

79
00:03:28,400 --> 00:03:30,440
Speaker 2: you know that they might actually be the persone.

80
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,360
Speaker 3: They talk about dogs being great for young families. My

81
00:03:33,480 --> 00:03:35,760
Speaker 3: kids want to get a Saint Bernard or Saint Bernard.

82
00:03:35,800 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 3: However you want to say it, is that an appropriate

83
00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:42,480
Speaker 3: dog for a young family? Look, I like that because

84
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 3: I've seen the barrel of whiskey they carry around.

85
00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:48,160
Speaker 2: The struggle with stairs, don't they struggle with stairs? A

86
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 2: bigger dog. Yeah, they don't need huge amounts of exercise.

87
00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 1: I suppose you know how they always say that the

88
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,720
Speaker 1: dog looks like its own as well, when for you.

89
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 2: Actually, I actually think a lot of people say, oh,

90
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:02,640
Speaker 2: your dogs look like your owners. I actually think it's

91
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,160
Speaker 2: more around you go for a dog that has a

92
00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:06,960
Speaker 2: similar personality.

93
00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:08,760
Speaker 3: To yours, oversize and lazy.

94
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 2: I was thinking, you know, given given your your desires

95
00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:13,840
Speaker 2: and where you're aut in life, probably a dog that's

96
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 2: non shedding.

97
00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,960
Speaker 3: I mean, if we're going down that path. You looked

98
00:04:20,000 --> 00:04:23,039
Speaker 3: identical to your cat on the weekend when it had

99
00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 3: funny glasses on.

100
00:04:25,279 --> 00:04:27,600
Speaker 2: Brown cat's name is Cricket A big weekend.

101
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:28,520
Speaker 1: Yeah.

102
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:32,760
Speaker 2: I love that video. We've had some glasses on it.

103
00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:37,280
Speaker 2: I can see little smile, what you're doing sport for

104
00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:43,840
Speaker 2: your cat. I sat there and classes on post this

105
00:04:43,920 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 2: and honestly, your faces, your three faces, raced through my mind.

106
00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,840
Speaker 2: I saw, I saw these exact smiles I'm seeing right now.

107
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:54,160
Speaker 2: And you know what, stuff, I'm just going to go.

108
00:04:54,680 --> 00:04:57,240
Speaker 2: I'm just going to go right ahead. Don't you laugh.

109
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,720
Speaker 2: Don't you laugh, Fitzy. I mean, you've got beast. So

110
00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:03,360
Speaker 2: we've just given beast to your mohawk at the back.

111
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:07,760
Speaker 2: And do you know what, just he's the dog around

112
00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:09,320
Speaker 2: bau Main. Everyone loves him.

113
00:05:09,360 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 1: He's the punk dog, he's the cool dog. He's got

114
00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 1: no idea, he just cruises around. He's like a lion.

115
00:05:15,760 --> 00:05:17,080
Speaker 2: I mean, little things like that.

116
00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:19,320
Speaker 1: I mean, it's just so much fun that you can

117
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 1: have with your pet.

118
00:05:20,760 --> 00:05:22,680
Speaker 2: I mean all the things that you can't do for

119
00:05:22,720 --> 00:05:24,640
Speaker 2: yourself you do to your dog. I mean, you've wanted

120
00:05:24,680 --> 00:05:26,720
Speaker 2: to grow mohawk for years. Physically impossible.

121
00:05:26,920 --> 00:05:27,599
Speaker 1: I can't do it.

122
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,400
Speaker 3: Yeah, Brownie, this is a bit selfish, but I just

123
00:05:31,440 --> 00:05:33,000
Speaker 3: want to try and see if you've got an answer.

124
00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 3: Here is edging away. You know, I made a bird house, right,

125
00:05:39,800 --> 00:05:41,719
Speaker 3: and I wanted to get a couple of rainbow lorikeets.

126
00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:43,160
Speaker 3: I put it in the tree, but I've got a

127
00:05:43,200 --> 00:05:45,440
Speaker 3: camera as well in there to make sure that I

128
00:05:45,480 --> 00:05:48,000
Speaker 3: can see it all the action. The problem is, all

129
00:05:48,040 --> 00:05:51,080
Speaker 3: I've got is a possum crawling in. That was last night,

130
00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 3: so I watched this live in bed. I'm a loser.

131
00:05:53,680 --> 00:05:55,440
Speaker 2: It's a tight squeeze because it's.

132
00:05:55,240 --> 00:05:57,920
Speaker 3: Made for birds. How do I keep a possum out

133
00:05:57,960 --> 00:05:59,320
Speaker 3: of my bird box? And how do I get the

134
00:05:59,320 --> 00:05:59,800
Speaker 3: birds in?

135
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:00,360
Speaker 1: Uh?

136
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 3: Look easy question to.

137
00:06:03,040 --> 00:06:05,680
Speaker 2: Be honest with you. Yeah, you have the wrong bird box.

138
00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:09,279
Speaker 2: You haven't tiny you have your like you're off the

139
00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:13,320
Speaker 2: shelf Temple and Webster home. Where's friendly built bird box

140
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 2: that fits in with the interiors of the house. I

141
00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:20,359
Speaker 2: know how this works with but ultimately, ultimately the majority

142
00:06:20,360 --> 00:06:23,359
Speaker 2: of Australian birds don't live in indoor bird houses like

143
00:06:23,600 --> 00:06:26,920
Speaker 2: you've been. You've gone off some sort of plan you've

144
00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,560
Speaker 2: found online from Does this hit.

145
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:31,359
Speaker 1: A bit of an air for you because you've struggled

146
00:06:31,400 --> 00:06:32,720
Speaker 1: to keep birds? Oh?

147
00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:35,440
Speaker 2: It was coming and that was it. It's been a.

148
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:36,520
Speaker 3: Couple of bosoms in your box.

149
00:06:36,560 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 2: I don't have a small round hole in the front

150
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:40,680
Speaker 2: of my house that they have to sweeze through. Where

151
00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:44,520
Speaker 2: is the line? Where is the life? Hey? Brownie is right?

152
00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:47,280
Speaker 1: I don't move on the MIDI life crisis to it.

153
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:51,159
Speaker 1: We're hitting the roads. A guy, which is an amazing effort,

154
00:06:51,160 --> 00:06:52,200
Speaker 1: he did in fifty one.

155
00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,320
Speaker 2: Pubs to ask you a favor.

156
00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:57,599
Speaker 1: No, no, no no, We just wanted a suggestion of where

157
00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,880
Speaker 1: we should go. But we had fifty one pubs in

158
00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:02,279

Speaker 2: more iconic. Fannys. Yeah, wow, I went to the Promised Land. Yeah,
