Speaker 4: time together altogether.

Speaker 3: now that that you've had that time to decompress from
Speaker 3: the high of the Olympics, did it take a long
Speaker 3: time to sort of kick in what you'd actually achieved
Speaker 3: is taken you a minute to step away?
Speaker 4: Yeah, well that's part of the reason why I've taken
Speaker 4: the break, just to let it all sink in and
Speaker 4: live life and just do things that I've never got
Speaker 4: to be able to do. I've had a glass of
Speaker 4: wine with my mum and dad for dinner for the
Speaker 4: first time in my whole life, just because.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's so listen and so Has it made you
Speaker 3: want to get back in the water or has it
Speaker 3: made you just enjoy this time so much you're looking
Speaker 3: at all the things you feel like you've missed out.
Speaker 4: It's both. It's I miss the routine, I miss being
Speaker 4: so well trained in something, and I miss working with
Speaker 4: my coach every day. But I also do like being
Speaker 4: free a little bit. It's been nice.
Speaker 2: We had a few Champagnes at the Melbourne cap, didn't
Speaker 2: we with your old man Steve.
Speaker 3: He loves it'd be loving the circuit you can work
Speaker 3: and they can drink champagne.
Speaker 2: Steve's a news reader in in Brisbane there, Yeah, very
Speaker 2: far us on.
Speaker 4: What station seven seven there. We're competitors, but.
Speaker 2: We've snatched Downie at nine yeah stable.
Speaker 5: I'm still going to Claire who runs the swimming pool
Speaker 5: where the kids go for training the other day down
Speaker 5: in Sandy and she was saying, because she does laps,
Speaker 5: I didn't know you could even get these.
Speaker 3: There's waterproof headphones you can get there is now that
Speaker 3: was not back in No, like when I was doing swim.
Speaker 5: Squad, when you train, like would you train with headphones
Speaker 5: in listening to music?
Speaker 4: We were only allowed on the really easy sessions and
Speaker 4: we could put them in if we're going long and
Speaker 4: easy for like five k straight, which is so boring,
Speaker 4: but not for the.
Speaker 2: You got your coach barking orders from the from the
Speaker 2: side of the pool. Oh yeah, he loves it, doesn't he?
Speaker 3: And you say you miss him? He must miss you.
Speaker 4: Yeah he Actually I hadn't heard from him for a
Speaker 4: couple of weeks. So I got this random message out
Speaker 4: of the blue a couple of days ago because my
Speaker 4: squad's in Thailand and he goes, Arnie, I really miss you.
Speaker 3: Yeah, So do you think you'll go back?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I'll go back yeah, law twenty eight Yeah, not.
Speaker 3: That far away. Three years. Yeah, but like, what do
Speaker 3: you reckon? I mean, you're the best in the world,
Speaker 3: what do you how much?
Speaker 1: Six months?
Speaker 3: A couple of weeks, weeks now we go the flippers on.
Speaker 4: No, I have to get back in soon.
Speaker 3: But you would need to make a decision soonish right yeah,
Speaker 3: or if you made that, Yeah, I'm going.
Speaker 1: To go back.
Speaker 3: Oh, she's back, she's back focused even though I got.
Speaker 2: Heym before we speak about the great campaign you're in
Speaker 2: here to support Australia made. The Enhanced Games GET launched
Speaker 2: today in Vegas. James Madison, who is a former Australian.
Speaker 1: Yeah. The juice that game just makes me.
Speaker 2: Yeah sick.
Speaker 1: I don't know. It's just for anybody who doesn't know.
Speaker 2: It's basically you can be on steroids any you can.
Speaker 2: You can for instance, swim, you can whatever sport is
Speaker 2: your sport. You can be juiced up, so you can
Speaker 2: take that. It's effectively whoever the best of the juiced
Speaker 2: up athletes.
Speaker 3: Is there anything banned from it? Or it's whatever you
Speaker 3: can do.
Speaker 2: I believe it's sort of you know what, I think
Speaker 2: it's fair because it's not fair, but it's you know,
Speaker 2: no rules.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I actually saw this morning that I've never heard of
Speaker 4: this guy in my life, but he broke the men's
Speaker 4: fifty meters freestyle world record. Juiced up and I was
Speaker 4: looking at it on my phone. I was just, this
Speaker 4: is a bit of a kick in the bump to
Speaker 4: any athletes he's ever worked their whole life to train.
Speaker 4: I mean, everyone's you know, obviously able to have their
Speaker 4: own opinion.
Speaker 2: But I don't like it to make you feel sick though,
Speaker 2: because you know, you work your tail off, you know,
Speaker 2: most of the year.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and we have to go through so many processes
Speaker 4: to be clean, you know, all the whereabouts, the drug testing,
Speaker 4: saying where we sleep every night for the drug testers
Speaker 4: to arrive. You've got to do so much to be
Speaker 4: to make sure you're clean. It's just I don't know
Speaker 4: a bit of.
Speaker 3: A But even if they're going to do, they shouldn't
Speaker 3: be allowed to compare it to a men's world record
Speaker 3: because they haven't broken the men's world record, because it's
Speaker 3: just a completely different book. I imagine the different sport.
Speaker 5: I imagine the swimming community be quite tight. I also
Speaker 5: imagine his name Maggie. Yeah, Magnuson's name would be a
Speaker 5: bit inside in the community at the moment.
Speaker 4: Well, yeah, I don't feel like we've spoken about it
Speaker 4: too much to be honest, but I think most people
Speaker 4: would be of the same opinion.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, So.
Speaker 2: Let's celebrate all things green and gold when it comes
Speaker 2: to clean athletes.
Speaker 3: So what are you doing ambassador for Australian made which
Speaker 3: is a little green and gold tag we see on.
Speaker 1: Looks for the kangaroo.
Speaker 4: They say, yeah, so I think it's really important we
Speaker 4: buy Australian Maine. People don't realize. I think the impact
Speaker 4: that buying Australian maid can have. So each Australian household,
Speaker 4: for example, was to just spend ten dollars extra on
Speaker 4: an Australian manufactured product every week, it would inject five
Speaker 4: point six billion dollars back into the economy and create
Speaker 4: up to ten thousand jobs. So even if you just
Speaker 4: change the shopping habits, you can have a massive.
Speaker 3: Because we are in it in this weird world where
Speaker 3: people are just buying like fashion.
Speaker 5: Cheap stuff off and then the minute you need a
Speaker 5: refund or something fixed you're waiting weeks.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so what sort of products are you talking about
Speaker 3: that we should be buying? Is this like food? Is it?
Speaker 3: Is it textiles?
Speaker 4: Is it fash I think people make a conscious effort
Speaker 4: to try and eat Australia and grown and produce food,
Speaker 4: which is great. But I think a lot of people
Speaker 4: don't realize which products are made in Australia. So Beckonbridge,
Speaker 4: for example, great, you know women's fashion brand is made
Speaker 4: here in Australia, which is great if you're living up
Speaker 4: in Queensland. Insect repellent that's made here, that's or brand.
Speaker 3: Well, there's a big debate with ugs, isn't there at
Speaker 3: the moment? Is some American company trademark the name ug boot?
Speaker 3: You got to go.
Speaker 2: Something like that, cheating Americans?
Speaker 3: So how do we know.
Speaker 4: What what the little Green and Gold kangaroo?
Speaker 1: So that's on the.
Speaker 3: Prodg Ye, fans like Beckon Bridge aren't doing that. How
Speaker 3: do you find out? Is there a website?
Speaker 4: Is there Beconbridge? They don't put it on there.
Speaker 3: No.
Speaker 4: But typically if you look at shopping the supermarket, or
Speaker 4: I was out of a truck factory on Monday.
Speaker 3: With the Volbo truck the launch of Australian made I'm.
Speaker 4: Here and they've got the kangaroo on the truck.
Speaker 1: Oh cool?
Speaker 3: Did you drive?
Speaker 4: I wasn't allowed to, but the truck was named the
Speaker 4: Arnie Truck. It's got my name on it.
Speaker 3: What's been the weirdest thing since you've become an Australian
Speaker 3: icon that's been named after you?
Speaker 1: To open the neatest.
Speaker 3: Thing you've had to do because people have be naming
Speaker 3: their pets after you.
Speaker 4: Arnie, the Arnie truck would be up. That's not been weird.
Speaker 4: That's just cool. That's the truck driver driving around with
Speaker 4: a truck named after me.
Speaker 3: Yeah you yeah, but I love it. The girl you've
Speaker 3: got a Quantus plane? No, yeah, we'll get you one
Speaker 3: of those.
Speaker 5: Reggie from Big Brother left Tasmania like you would be
Speaker 5: the next like superstar to come from there.
Speaker 4: But there's Ricky Ponting and oh yeah you know all.
Speaker 3: These Ricky, are you're going to be the number one
Speaker 3: for the Yes?
Speaker 4: This is this is a debate because I am hawked
Speaker 4: through and through.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I think.
Speaker 4: The Devils might be my second team.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that's fair enough. That mascot they've put out is
Speaker 3: just looks ridiculous, doesn't it. I wouldn't a job the
Speaker 3: spotlight job. Probably austral made this. What about your Hawks?
Speaker 3: So you know Nick Watson is on our show every week? Yes,
Speaker 3: have you got any hard hitting questions for him? We
Speaker 3: could ask him.
Speaker 4: He's been doing pretty well at the moment. I think
Speaker 4: he's been carrying the side Collie.
Speaker 2: Are you hanging around to little Man to see the
Speaker 2: Hawks day in town this week?
Speaker 4: They are I won't be there on Saturday, it'll be
Speaker 4: a TV.

Speaker 2: And are you coming back to work with me during
Speaker 2: the Melbourne Cup Carnival?
Speaker 3: Well? I hope so tends? How much money Channel nine

Speaker 5: gold when purchasing your products to ensure it is Australian made.
