I'm table Strano. Here's Claire now 12 00:00:51,934 --> 00:00:53,415 Speaker 2: with the latest news headlines. 13 00:00:53,895 --> 00:00:56,975 Speaker 1: Thanks Taylor and Inquest will reconstruct the final moments of 14 00:00:57,015 --> 00:01:00,014 Speaker 1: fugitive Desi Freeman's life in detail for a coroner to 15 00:01:00,175 --> 00:01:03,455 Speaker 1: determine the circumstances around his death. The fifty six year 16 00:01:03,455 --> 00:01:06,135 Speaker 1: old was fatally shot by police honor a moat property 17 00:01:06,215 --> 00:01:09,255 Speaker 1: in Thologolog near Wolwar on the Victorian New South Wales 18 00:01:09,295 --> 00:01:12,855 Speaker 1: border on Monday after a month's long manhunt. As one 19 00:01:12,855 --> 00:01:15,855 Speaker 1: of the nation's largest searches concludes, a coroner will take 20 00:01:15,895 --> 00:01:19,455 Speaker 1: over the investigation and look into the circumstances surrounding the 21 00:01:19,495 --> 00:01:23,095 Speaker 1: seven month period. Freeman was wanted over the fatal shootings 22 00:01:23,135 --> 00:01:26,375 Speaker 1: of Neil Thompson and Vadim dwart HoTT Art, officers who 23 00:01:26,415 --> 00:01:28,695 Speaker 1: were among a team of police serving a warrant at 24 00:01:28,735 --> 00:01:32,255 Speaker 1: his poor Punker home in late August. Families hoping to 25 00:01:32,255 --> 00:01:35,335 Speaker 1: get away over Easter are unlikely to get cheaper petrol 26 00:01:35,375 --> 00:01:38,455 Speaker 1: before the long weekend, while regional people could be waiting 27 00:01:38,495 --> 00:01:42,175 Speaker 1: weeks for relief. The federal government cut wholesale fuel prices 28 00:01:42,215 --> 00:01:44,735 Speaker 1: by twenty six cents elter in a bid to head 29 00:01:44,775 --> 00:01:47,055 Speaker 1: off the worst economic effects of the war in Iran, 30 00:01:47,415 --> 00:01:50,615 Speaker 1: but the change would not be felt straightway because service 31 00:01:50,655 --> 00:01:53,695 Speaker 1: stations still need to sell all their older, higher taxed 32 00:01:53,735 --> 00:01:57,055 Speaker 1: fuel stock before bringing in the cheaper fuel. That process 33 00:01:57,055 --> 00:01:59,495 Speaker 1: would likely take anything from a day or two for 34 00:01:59,615 --> 00:02:02,775 Speaker 1: high turnover metro stations to two or more weeks for 35 00:02:02,855 --> 00:02:06,815 Speaker 1: some regional areas.

I love talking 93 00:05:17,935 --> 00:05:20,975 Speaker 1: about sounds as someone who's been in radio, in now 94 00:05:21,015 --> 00:05:24,735 Speaker 1: podcast for my entire career, Like, sounds are so important. 95 00:05:24,895 --> 00:05:28,335 Speaker 1: They can do so many things. They can create memories, 96 00:05:28,375 --> 00:05:30,895 Speaker 1: they can take you back in time, they can make 97 00:05:30,935 --> 00:05:33,614 Speaker 1: you feel things like I love this so much. 98 00:05:33,695 --> 00:05:34,495 Speaker 4: I love this too. 99 00:05:34,615 --> 00:05:37,495 Speaker 2: I love that we have this Australian collection in the 100 00:05:37,575 --> 00:05:40,055 Speaker 2: National Film and Sound Archive and every year we're just 101 00:05:40,535 --> 00:05:43,575 Speaker 2: taken down memory lane with the additions. So there are 102 00:05:43,655 --> 00:05:45,495 Speaker 2: nine new editions in twenty twenty six. Do you want 103 00:05:45,495 --> 00:05:46,775 Speaker 2: to kick us off with the first one? 104 00:05:47,015 --> 00:05:47,214 Speaker 3: Yes? 105 00:05:47,295 --> 00:05:49,575 Speaker 1: I do, because for those of you who only know 106 00:05:49,655 --> 00:05:51,695 Speaker 1: Marsha Hines for her being a judge on a talent 107 00:05:51,775 --> 00:05:54,854 Speaker 1: show back in the day, she was Australia's Queen of 108 00:05:54,935 --> 00:05:59,615 Speaker 1: disco and in nineteen seventy seven she released this song 109 00:05:59,695 --> 00:06:14,255 Speaker 1: It's called You Something Goes. It became Marsha Hein's biggest hit. Unsurprisingly, 110 00:06:14,295 --> 00:06:17,495 Speaker 1: like disco was massive in nineteen seventy seven, and this 111 00:06:17,695 --> 00:06:22,135 Speaker 1: just hit the sweet spot. Marsha's vocals are fabulous. It 112 00:06:22,175 --> 00:06:26,414 Speaker 1: had all of the elements that nineteen seventy seven Australia needed. 113 00:06:26,415 --> 00:06:28,335 Speaker 1: It only made it to number two on the charts, 114 00:06:28,375 --> 00:06:31,015 Speaker 1: which is interesting. It's such a moment in Australia time 115 00:06:31,055 --> 00:06:35,815 Speaker 1: and it kind of legitimized us as a musical strength 116 00:06:36,055 --> 00:06:40,175 Speaker 1: because Marsha's American and she gave it kind of this legitimacy. 117 00:06:40,215 --> 00:06:43,935 Speaker 1: Was written by an American songwriter, but she's quintessentially Australian. 118 00:06:44,375 --> 00:06:47,534 Speaker 2: Also on this list Claire another song. So the entirety 119 00:06:47,575 --> 00:06:49,855 Speaker 2: of the list and the archive is not all just music. 120 00:06:49,895 --> 00:06:51,695 Speaker 2: But I do want to talk about another track that 121 00:06:51,815 --> 00:06:54,295 Speaker 2: did make its way into the archive this year. 122 00:06:54,815 --> 00:06:56,295 Speaker 4: It's actually pretty recent. 123 00:06:56,335 --> 00:06:59,375 Speaker 2: When we think about archives, our mind extends back quite far. 124 00:06:59,775 --> 00:07:01,655 Speaker 2: But I want to take you to two thousand and 125 00:07:02,095 --> 00:07:04,614 Speaker 2: four to this iconic piano riff. 126 00:07:05,975 --> 00:07:10,535 Speaker 4: It doesn't that stuff she doesn't hits close to her, 127 00:07:11,375 --> 00:07:18,895 Speaker 4: don't make it, won't. Yeah, a little bit of Missy Higgins. 128 00:07:19,015 --> 00:07:22,015 Speaker 1: Yeah, some scar It takes us to such a time 129 00:07:22,415 --> 00:07:23,855 Speaker 1: for those of us who are of a certain age, 130 00:07:23,855 --> 00:07:26,735 Speaker 1: because we're talking this is peak Emo years two thousand 131 00:07:26,735 --> 00:07:29,175 Speaker 1: and four. We're all a little bit sad for whatever reason. 132 00:07:29,175 --> 00:07:30,975 Speaker 1: We had no idea what was coming that could potentially 133 00:07:30,975 --> 00:07:33,975 Speaker 1: make us even sadder. But back then, Latin music really 134 00:07:34,015 --> 00:07:36,135 Speaker 1: spoke to our souls, and Missy Higgins went for the 135 00:07:36,255 --> 00:07:38,735 Speaker 1: jugular man like. She's got several songs like this which 136 00:07:38,895 --> 00:07:42,095 Speaker 1: just rip your heart out and stump all over it. 137 00:07:42,175 --> 00:07:42,415 Speaker 5: Yeah. 138 00:07:42,455 --> 00:07:44,975 Speaker 2: Ironically, this song is about being in the industry for 139 00:07:45,015 --> 00:07:47,855 Speaker 2: a little while and people try to reshape and reformat 140 00:07:47,895 --> 00:07:49,655 Speaker 2: what it is that you do, and for some reason 141 00:07:49,695 --> 00:07:52,015 Speaker 2: that was really relatable to everybody who was not trying 142 00:07:52,055 --> 00:07:55,375 Speaker 2: to be a pop star in early two thousand Australia. 143 00:07:55,495 --> 00:07:58,295 Speaker 1: It's also a woman who is writing her own music. 144 00:07:58,415 --> 00:08:00,735 Speaker 1: She is a musician, she's playing that piano and we've 145 00:08:00,775 --> 00:08:03,175 Speaker 1: even seen her play it recently in an awards ceremony. 146 00:08:03,255 --> 00:08:05,935 Speaker 1: Like that song still hits man and. 147 00:08:06,015 --> 00:08:07,455 Speaker 4: It continues to do so you're right. 148 00:08:07,495 --> 00:08:10,295 Speaker 2: So it actually clocked up at number four in Triple 149 00:08:10,335 --> 00:08:13,895 Speaker 2: j's Hottest one hundred of Australian Songs last year, and 150 00:08:14,015 --> 00:08:15,935 Speaker 2: during the year that it was released two thousand and four, 151 00:08:15,975 --> 00:08:17,055 Speaker 2: it came in at number two. 152 00:08:17,175 --> 00:08:20,175 Speaker 4: So it was very much in earworm of time. 153 00:08:20,975 --> 00:08:24,375 Speaker 1: Speaking about tearing our hearts out. This next bit of 154 00:08:24,415 --> 00:08:27,695 Speaker 1: audio that is going into the sound archive this year 155 00:08:27,975 --> 00:08:30,615 Speaker 1: comes from twenty fifteen, but in order to explain it, 156 00:08:30,655 --> 00:08:33,055 Speaker 1: we need to go a year back because in twenty fourteen, 157 00:08:33,295 --> 00:08:35,535 Speaker 1: Rosy Baddy was at a cricket match with her son Luke. 158 00:08:35,535 --> 00:08:38,295 Speaker 1: He was just eleven years old when her ex partner 159 00:08:38,335 --> 00:08:41,575 Speaker 1: and Luke's dad arrived at the scene and in a 160 00:08:41,775 --> 00:08:46,455 Speaker 1: horrific moment of family violence, killed Luke and then took 161 00:08:46,455 --> 00:08:51,694 Speaker 1: his own life. And at that moment this really thrust 162 00:08:51,735 --> 00:08:55,135 Speaker 1: domestic violence into the headlines and spotlight like we'd never 163 00:08:55,175 --> 00:08:57,934 Speaker 1: really seen before. It was still very behind closed doors, 164 00:08:57,935 --> 00:09:01,615 Speaker 1: its family business. This was national headlines. It was so 165 00:09:01,735 --> 00:09:04,934 Speaker 1: shocking that everyone in the country kind of came to 166 00:09:04,975 --> 00:09:07,415 Speaker 1: a holt and was like, how could this have happened 167 00:09:07,455 --> 00:09:10,575 Speaker 1: in this public place. Lesson a year later, Rosie Baddy 168 00:09:10,615 --> 00:09:12,655 Speaker 1: was made Australian of the Year and she gave this 169 00:09:12,735 --> 00:09:14,375 Speaker 1: speech on being handled her award. 170 00:09:15,335 --> 00:09:18,175 Speaker 6: I am truly honored. I would like to dedicate this 171 00:09:18,255 --> 00:09:22,375 Speaker 6: award to my beautiful son Luke. 172 00:09:24,535 --> 00:09:27,295 Speaker 5: Here's the reason I have found my voice and I'm 173 00:09:27,375 --> 00:09:32,895 Speaker 5: able to be heard. Whilst we celebrate the wonderful country 174 00:09:32,935 --> 00:09:36,855 Speaker 5: that we live in today, there remains a serious epidemic 175 00:09:37,855 --> 00:09:43,135 Speaker 5: across our nation. No matter where you live, family. 176 00:09:42,935 --> 00:09:48,334 Speaker 6: Violence exists in every pocket of every neighborhood. It does 177 00:09:48,375 --> 00:09:54,814 Speaker 6: not discriminate, and it's just across all sections of our society. 178 00:09:54,935 --> 00:10:00,694 Speaker 2: It is so deeply moving and devastating, and I wish 179 00:10:00,775 --> 00:10:03,055 Speaker 2: there was a world, in a universe, a reality when 180 00:10:03,095 --> 00:10:08,095 Speaker 2: this never happened. Day has opened that conversation and that 181 00:10:08,215 --> 00:10:11,695 Speaker 2: dialogue up for so many Australians who either didn't know 182 00:10:12,175 --> 00:10:15,415 Speaker 2: of sort of the extent of domestic violence in Australia 183 00:10:15,855 --> 00:10:17,855 Speaker 2: or were being introduced to it for the first time. 184 00:10:18,015 --> 00:10:21,615 Speaker 1: Yeah, and she did speak to other victim survivors and 185 00:10:21,775 --> 00:10:23,895 Speaker 1: their children in that message. But one thing that was 186 00:10:23,895 --> 00:10:27,135 Speaker 1: really interesting is she spoke to men and said that 187 00:10:27,175 --> 00:10:30,415 Speaker 1: we need you, like you're part of this conversation. We 188 00:10:30,535 --> 00:10:33,935 Speaker 1: need you to help us and family violence. And I 189 00:10:33,935 --> 00:10:35,855 Speaker 1: think that's when people started to go, hang on a minute, 190 00:10:35,935 --> 00:10:38,575 Speaker 1: this isn't women's business, This isn't something that women should 191 00:10:38,615 --> 00:10:42,255 Speaker 1: be dealing with or fighting against or trying to not 192 00:10:42,335 --> 00:10:45,415 Speaker 1: become victims of. Men are part of this conversation too, 193 00:10:45,415 --> 00:10:47,855 Speaker 1: and she made that really clear. It's very interesting for 194 00:10:47,895 --> 00:10:50,615 Speaker 1: someone to be able to take the worst moment of 195 00:10:50,615 --> 00:10:54,255 Speaker 1: their life and turn it into their life's work. And 196 00:10:54,295 --> 00:10:56,095 Speaker 1: she's just such an incredible woman for that. 197 00:10:57,095 --> 00:11:00,615 Speaker 2: Okay, Claire, from something quite serious to something that you've 198 00:11:00,815 --> 00:11:05,135 Speaker 2: probably heard nearly every single day and not thought much about. 199 00:11:05,575 --> 00:11:08,175 Speaker 2: The archive is not just songs, it's not just quotes 200 00:11:08,215 --> 00:11:11,855 Speaker 2: and films and speeches. It's also just like everyday sounds. 201 00:11:12,255 --> 00:11:17,775 Speaker 2: May I introduce this one to you. 202 00:11:17,775 --> 00:11:20,535 Speaker 4: You're very familiar with that sound. I imagine, like, let. 203 00:11:20,335 --> 00:11:22,375 Speaker 1: Me tell you this, Taylor Stowto, I was five years 204 00:11:22,375 --> 00:11:27,734 Speaker 1: old when these crossing buttons came to be in Australia, 205 00:11:28,175 --> 00:11:31,615 Speaker 1: and I have really visceral memories of standing with my 206 00:11:31,735 --> 00:11:36,135 Speaker 1: mum at an intersection and holding my finger on the 207 00:11:36,175 --> 00:11:38,135 Speaker 1: middle part which is used for people who are hearing 208 00:11:38,135 --> 00:11:42,054 Speaker 1: impaired and so impaired, and it sends a pulse through 209 00:11:42,135 --> 00:11:45,255 Speaker 1: at the same time as the actual sound does, and 210 00:11:45,335 --> 00:11:48,935 Speaker 1: I just remember being so like entranced by this thing 211 00:11:49,175 --> 00:11:52,575 Speaker 1: and so interested in it. And now it's just become 212 00:11:53,015 --> 00:11:55,655 Speaker 1: so much a part of the Australian way of life. 213 00:11:55,655 --> 00:11:58,775 Speaker 1: If I hear it out of context, it'll transport me 214 00:11:58,815 --> 00:12:00,455 Speaker 1: to an intersection somewhere in Australia. 215 00:12:00,535 --> 00:12:02,454 Speaker 2: Well, some are out of context. And I'm not sure 216 00:12:02,495 --> 00:12:04,615 Speaker 2: if you've picked up on this, but Billie Eilish was 217 00:12:04,655 --> 00:12:07,815 Speaker 2: also quite taken. I heard about this, Yeah, so you're 218 00:12:07,815 --> 00:12:09,415 Speaker 2: taking by it and it brings you back to a 219 00:12:09,415 --> 00:12:11,895 Speaker 2: suburban street in Australia. She heard it while she was 220 00:12:11,935 --> 00:12:15,295 Speaker 2: here down Under and it actually formed a sample that you. 221 00:12:15,655 --> 00:12:17,934 Speaker 4: Might have picked up in arguably. 222 00:12:17,495 --> 00:12:22,175 Speaker 2: One of her biggest songs ever, which is bad Guy 223 00:12:20,815 --> 00:12:30,615 Speaker 2: Bad Duh Yeah, and She's talked about this in media 224 00:12:30,655 --> 00:12:32,455 Speaker 2: previously about how that all came to be. 225 00:12:32,775 --> 00:12:33,615 Speaker 4: I love that there's just. 226 00:12:33,575 --> 00:12:36,455 Speaker 2: A little bit of Australian slipped into some Billie Eilish 227 00:12:36,575 --> 00:12:39,375 Speaker 2: a couple of very quick mentions, Claire. We have such 228 00:12:39,415 --> 00:12:43,054 Speaker 2: a long, rich history of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander 229 00:12:43,175 --> 00:12:45,775 Speaker 2: art being made as part of the Australian Songbook, and 230 00:12:45,815 --> 00:12:48,415 Speaker 2: one of those tracks is being taken into the archive 231 00:12:48,535 --> 00:12:52,215 Speaker 2: this year, Tabaran by Rubble, which is the title track 232 00:12:52,215 --> 00:12:54,735 Speaker 2: from a record that came out in nineteen nineteen, and 233 00:12:54,775 --> 00:12:57,454 Speaker 2: it's around that time in Australian music where a lot 234 00:12:57,455 --> 00:13:01,215 Speaker 2: of Indigenous artists were teaming up with contemporary Australian artists, 235 00:13:01,255 --> 00:13:13,495 Speaker 2: and you hear it in this track specifically, it's like 236 00:13:13,535 --> 00:13:16,775 Speaker 2: that thing of speaking in native language and then teeming 237 00:13:16,775 --> 00:13:20,895 Speaker 2: it up with those contemporary almost dance sort of sounds. 238 00:13:20,935 --> 00:13:22,735 Speaker 2: Yourthor Yindi is another really good example. 239 00:13:22,855 --> 00:13:27,615 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's so interesting because before that we heard Aboriginal 240 00:13:27,615 --> 00:13:31,735 Speaker 1: and Toros Strait Islander cultural music really just in cultural settings. 241 00:13:32,375 --> 00:13:37,095 Speaker 1: And when it started to see songs like Treaty or 242 00:13:37,255 --> 00:13:41,375 Speaker 1: like this come through, it's like it started us understanding 243 00:13:41,495 --> 00:13:45,055 Speaker 1: that Aberdinal Torres Strait Islander culture isn't just about something 244 00:13:45,095 --> 00:13:47,455 Speaker 1: that happens at Ularu for example, like it's everywhere, it's 245 00:13:47,495 --> 00:13:50,215 Speaker 1: part about everyday life. This felt like a way for 246 00:13:50,295 --> 00:13:52,535 Speaker 1: us to kind of just start bridging that gap. 247 00:13:52,375 --> 00:13:52,855 Speaker 4: A little bit. 248 00:13:52,895 --> 00:13:55,095 Speaker 2: They were awarded for it as well, like they won 249 00:13:55,135 --> 00:13:57,775 Speaker 2: the nineteen ninety two Aria for the Best Indigenous Release 250 00:13:57,855 --> 00:14:00,415 Speaker 2: for this that is going into the archive. Also on 251 00:14:00,455 --> 00:14:04,135 Speaker 2: a similar sort of ilk is a radio broadcast from 252 00:14:04,175 --> 00:14:08,055 Speaker 2: the year two thousand and seven, the Federal Court recognized 253 00:14:08,054 --> 00:14:11,895 Speaker 2: the Jungora people's native title over Nunkanbar Station up in 254 00:14:12,054 --> 00:14:16,095 Speaker 2: WA's Kimberly region, and the ABC Kimberly Mornings with Vanessa 255 00:14:16,135 --> 00:14:19,655 Speaker 2: Mills broadcast that decision, which is the first time that 256 00:14:19,735 --> 00:14:22,855 Speaker 2: it ever happened. It's pretty incredible it was able to 257 00:14:22,975 --> 00:14:26,895 Speaker 2: bring what was such an important court proceeding to local 258 00:14:26,935 --> 00:14:29,615 Speaker 2: people of the area and send it out to the 259 00:14:29,655 --> 00:14:30,575 Speaker 2: masses in the region. 260 00:14:30,695 --> 00:14:32,695 Speaker 3: The Federal Court of Australia is just about to begin, 261 00:14:33,215 --> 00:14:36,575 Speaker 3: just as Robert French is walking down in his black robes. 262 00:14:37,175 --> 00:14:40,815 Speaker 3: Who the white monkeys have been fed up? Court is 263 00:14:40,815 --> 00:14:45,255 Speaker 3: now in session. Everybody is standing all bowed. 264 00:14:48,655 --> 00:14:51,255 Speaker 1: Yeah, It's really interesting with native title because it was 265 00:14:51,335 --> 00:14:55,495 Speaker 1: used to scam manger for a long time, and when 266 00:14:55,575 --> 00:14:59,015 Speaker 1: we started to understand that native title didn't mean that 267 00:14:59,095 --> 00:15:01,935 Speaker 1: someone was coming for our backyards, that it meant protection 268 00:15:01,975 --> 00:15:05,335 Speaker 1: of sacred sites, that it meant conservation of land, you know, 269 00:15:05,535 --> 00:15:08,175 Speaker 1: from a people who've been taking care of country for 270 00:15:08,375 --> 00:15:10,935 Speaker 1: you know, tens of thousands of years. And so to 271 00:15:11,015 --> 00:15:14,735 Speaker 1: be able to broadcast that, I think is such an 272 00:15:14,735 --> 00:15:18,975 Speaker 1: important moment in Australian history and a better understanding of 273 00:15:20,015 --> 00:15:24,295 Speaker 1: how native title still plays a role in Australian cultural 274 00:15:24,295 --> 00:15:26,815 Speaker 1: and political landscapes, and how it's still something we're still 275 00:15:26,855 --> 00:15:27,575 Speaker 1: working on now. 276 00:15:27,855 --> 00:15:29,935 Speaker 2: If I say the words one three, double oh two, 277 00:15:29,935 --> 00:15:31,255 Speaker 2: how are you going to finish that sentence? 278 00:15:31,895 --> 00:15:33,895 Speaker 1: Double oh six, triple five. 279 00:15:35,775 --> 00:15:38,655 Speaker 2: Yes, if you're listening in the car with your jen 280 00:15:38,695 --> 00:15:40,855 Speaker 2: Alford children, they might be looking at you going what's 281 00:15:40,895 --> 00:15:41,615 Speaker 2: that mean, mum. 282 00:15:41,655 --> 00:15:43,735 Speaker 1: That actually makes me really sad because this is something 283 00:15:43,775 --> 00:15:48,415 Speaker 1: that younger generations won't have as a collective memory moving 284 00:15:48,415 --> 00:15:51,055 Speaker 1: forward because they don't watch free to air TV, and 285 00:15:51,175 --> 00:15:54,375 Speaker 1: that is these kinds of TV commercials. That's a reading 286 00:15:54,455 --> 00:15:57,135 Speaker 1: and writing hotline. Yes, there was a few other of 287 00:15:57,175 --> 00:15:59,575 Speaker 1: that to this one's relatively new compared to the other 288 00:15:59,615 --> 00:16:02,575 Speaker 1: ones yecause like things like the slip slop slap message 289 00:16:02,615 --> 00:16:05,895 Speaker 1: from the seagull or there was like life in it. 290 00:16:06,135 --> 00:16:08,575 Speaker 1: And there was also the Vitamin song. I don't even 291 00:16:08,615 --> 00:16:09,495 Speaker 1: remember the vitamin song. 292 00:16:09,575 --> 00:16:11,375 Speaker 4: Well, the vitamin song might be stretching too far. 293 00:16:11,415 --> 00:16:13,695 Speaker 1: But I can't sing the Vitamin song because once I do, 294 00:16:13,815 --> 00:16:15,655 Speaker 1: I'll be singing it for the next week, and I 295 00:16:15,655 --> 00:16:18,935 Speaker 1: can't do that to myself. But these ads were specifically 296 00:16:19,015 --> 00:16:22,815 Speaker 1: designed that the music and the message were so closely 297 00:16:22,855 --> 00:16:25,535 Speaker 1: linked together that they would drop an earworm and then 298 00:16:25,575 --> 00:16:28,535 Speaker 1: you never forget it. And we're talking decades later, we 299 00:16:28,575 --> 00:16:30,775 Speaker 1: can all still sing the Reading and Writing Hotline number. 300 00:16:30,895 --> 00:16:33,335 Speaker 2: Yes, that is burned into our collective consciousness. I even 301 00:16:33,335 --> 00:16:35,175 Speaker 2: did a whip around the offers. A couple of the 302 00:16:35,215 --> 00:16:38,095 Speaker 2: gen Z's were also a crosset, which makes me feel so. 303 00:16:38,015 --> 00:16:40,335 Speaker 1: It's still has a legacy now even though we're not 304 00:16:40,375 --> 00:16:42,375 Speaker 1: watching Free to Air. Does it still work though? 305 00:16:43,135 --> 00:16:44,975 Speaker 4: But I'll find out? Can you ring it? Let's give 306 00:16:45,015 --> 00:16:45,415 Speaker 4: it a call? 307 00:16:47,255 --> 00:16:50,735 Speaker 1: Three double L six six. 308 00:16:51,895 --> 00:16:58,615 Speaker 4: That's cool?

They should redo the ads. They should 322 00:17:25,614 --> 00:17:27,575 Speaker 2: put those out onto like YouTube ads or something. 323 00:17:27,695 --> 00:17:29,734 Speaker 1: I'm pretty sure they exist out there for here. Oh 324 00:17:29,774 --> 00:17:34,014 Speaker 1: my gosh, tailstroto. I saw someone walking down the street 325 00:17:34,054 --> 00:17:37,654 Speaker 1: literally a week ago wearing this next sound on a 326 00:17:37,695 --> 00:17:41,614 Speaker 1: T shirt. And I know that makes no sense. But 327 00:17:42,215 --> 00:17:45,615 Speaker 1: back in nineteen ninety one, a man named Jack Carlson 328 00:17:45,695 --> 00:17:49,975 Speaker 1: was arrested in Brisbane and this is what he said 329 00:17:50,415 --> 00:17:54,094 Speaker 1: when he was taken by police and popped into their vehicle. 330 00:17:55,054 --> 00:17:58,335 Speaker 3: This is democracy manifest. 331 00:17:58,574 --> 00:18:03,135 Speaker 6: What is the charge eating a meal a succulent Chinese? 332 00:18:03,854 --> 00:18:07,574 Speaker 1: Succulent Chinese me bi has become a saying which I 333 00:18:07,574 --> 00:18:09,215 Speaker 1: don't even know if we use it all in the 334 00:18:09,215 --> 00:18:12,134 Speaker 1: same context or for the same reason, but sometimes we 335 00:18:12,215 --> 00:18:13,774 Speaker 1: just say it. Because he was in the valley, he 336 00:18:13,854 --> 00:18:16,854 Speaker 1: was having a succulent Chinese meal.
