00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 3: Now, my god, unboxed curious because the first thing I

00:01:32,360 --> 00:01:36,080
Speaker 3: ever do is throw out the box and the instructions.

32
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,360

33
00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:39,080
Speaker 1: What did your snag?

34
00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 3: Okay, So you know, my daughter has decided that she's

35
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:49,480
Speaker 3: going to be musical. Decided and yeah, because probably a

36
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 3: bit like a mother, she realized that athletics and sports

37
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:57,160
Speaker 3: are not her thing. And she goes to a school

38
00:01:57,200 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 3: where you've got to have a thing, right, she's shout out.

39
00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:04,080
Speaker 3: She's in grade six. So she's announced to me about

40
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:07,120
Speaker 3: three weeks ago. She's like, all right, I've I've tried

41
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,880
Speaker 3: the sports stuff. She even signed up for like after

42
00:02:09,919 --> 00:02:12,040
Speaker 3: school things to really, she goes, I'm really giving it

43
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:15,480
Speaker 3: a red hot goat to who I am anyway, hated

44
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,720
Speaker 3: it as I did. She said to me, you know,

45
00:02:18,800 --> 00:02:20,480
Speaker 3: I just don't get it. I said, I know, the

46
00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:22,720
Speaker 3: only sports that I liked when we played with like

47
00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:26,919
Speaker 3: little bean bean filled bags and we'd have to throw

48
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:31,600
Speaker 3: them into that's my level. Yeah, that's my level of

49
00:02:31,840 --> 00:02:34,760
Speaker 3: you know. So she's like, I've got to pick her.

50
00:02:34,800 --> 00:02:36,440
Speaker 3: I've got to pick a lane and it's going to

51
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:39,160
Speaker 3: be music and I'm just going to throw everything I've

52
00:02:39,160 --> 00:02:39,760
Speaker 3: got into.

53
00:02:39,560 --> 00:02:43,120
Speaker 1: That because her brother Leo is a great guitar pie,

54
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 1: like borderline genius.

55
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 3: Right. Yeah, So she's thought, look, maybe I've got the

56
00:02:49,160 --> 00:02:52,360
Speaker 3: maybe I've got the biology for this, And of course,

57
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:56,160
Speaker 3: in classic Swanny style, she now has a drum kit

58
00:02:56,200 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 3: in her bedcormyboard that these were all around the house.

59
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:04,120
Speaker 3: It's going to do the hypern fixations. I collected them all.

60
00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 3: They're all in her room. It's basically, you know, like

61
00:03:06,919 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 3: a Jackson five. Yeah. Anyway, saxophone is her first love

62
00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 3: and she's very good at it, right, she can play

63
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 3: that you know, bit from last Christmas.

64
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:23,280
Speaker 4: Did really.

65
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:28,200
Speaker 3: Awesome a bit wahm. And I'm getting a playlist together

66
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 3: called Mums sax must have on It is the beginning

67
00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:34,560
Speaker 3: of Jerry Rafferty's Baker Street and I played it to

68
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 3: her and she's like, no, way too high.

69
00:03:36,680 --> 00:03:39,400
Speaker 1: Just don't write Mums sax lest up on the fringe

70
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:40,560
Speaker 1: because that don't look a bit weird.

71
00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:43,800
Speaker 2: Tom his name at the top three times.

72
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 3: Oh my god, did you imagine? Anyway, I thought, what

73
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 3: she needs is a stand a sax stand, because I imagine

74
00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,640
Speaker 3: that if I was a saxophone player, it would annoy

75
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 3: me to have to get it out of its little

76
00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 3: velvety box. Why do they why do they make them

77
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:08,920
Speaker 3: sleep like Nosferaki by the way, extraordinary, It's like they

78
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:12,920
Speaker 3: can go to bed now, Draula. It's all in that

79
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:16,479
Speaker 3: velvety stuff. Anyway, So I thought, I wonder if there's

80
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:20,520
Speaker 3: such a thing as a sax stand, and I looked

81
00:04:20,520 --> 00:04:23,839
Speaker 3: it up on Facebook Marketplace, which is my first go to,

82
00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:27,560
Speaker 3: and sure enough, there is such a thing as a

83
00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:34,719
Speaker 3: sax stand, and there was one sax stand for sale. One.

84
00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 3: Do you know how rare that is? On Facebook Marketplace?

85
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 3: If you're put in paper shredder, there's seven thousand varying

86
00:04:42,720 --> 00:04:44,160
Speaker 3: quality and location.

87
00:04:44,279 --> 00:04:47,120
Speaker 2: So they're rare or nobody wants them.

88
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,320
Speaker 3: Well, I don't know. I don't know, but it's just

89
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:52,599
Speaker 3: so unusual that there's only one available in the whole

90
00:04:52,680 --> 00:04:56,279
Speaker 3: of you know city. Anyway, it was in a suburb

91

Speaker 3: in the next suburb to me. Miracle, second miracle, third miracle.

92

130
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:03,039

131
00:07:03,160 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 2: unique item that you scored on marketplace?

132
00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:05,360
Speaker 1: Justin?

133
00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:06,640
Speaker 4: Here you go?

134
00:07:07,120 --> 00:07:07,280
Speaker 3: Good?

135
00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:07,640
Speaker 1: Justin?

136
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:13,280
Speaker 4: That's good. I've got to remember outside White Center many

137
00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:18,920
Speaker 4: years ago there was a father last statue. Yeah, yeah,

138
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:20,760
Speaker 4: I got him.

139
00:07:22,840 --> 00:07:24,280
Speaker 2: Why did you buy Pilot Pete?

140
00:07:24,480 --> 00:07:24,720
Speaker 1: Justin?

141
00:07:25,720 --> 00:07:27,480
Speaker 4: Oh men, who do you know? That's got one?

142
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:28,240
Speaker 2: So true?

143
00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:29,000
Speaker 3: Mate, Justin.

144
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,760
Speaker 1: See Pilot Peat changed over the years though, because it

145
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:35,360
Speaker 1: was just good looking blokes who look like pilots. They're

146
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:36,480
Speaker 1: not actually pilots.

147
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:40,320
Speaker 3: And I think it's so if you've got the original

148
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:44,000
Speaker 3: Pilot Peak Justin, he'd be worth a bit because he was.

149
00:07:44,560 --> 00:07:47,400
Speaker 3: There's a story about pilot Pete because he was offered

150
00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:50,760
Speaker 3: the contract again and he asked for too much money.

151
00:07:50,800 --> 00:07:53,520
Speaker 3: So they said, mate, we can put anyone in a

152
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:55,920
Speaker 3: bloody cap and no one will know, And sure enough

153
00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:56,440
Speaker 3: they did.

154
00:07:57,120 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, you know us the original. He's a little

155
00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,280
Speaker 4: bit beat up, but obviously if you can expect, but

156
00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:02,280
Speaker 4: he's all there.

157
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:04,320
Speaker 1: Hey, just before you go, how much was it? How

158
00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:05,000
Speaker 1: much did it cost?

159
00:08:05,160 --> 00:08:05,400
Speaker 3: Justin?

160
00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:08,040
Speaker 4: You want the price that I bought it for? That
