1
00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:09,319
Speaker 1: Welcome to our growing up talking game show. Today, we're

2
00:00:09,440 --> 00:00:14,080
Speaker 1: joined from Australia by the one and only Trent Maxwell,

3
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:16,280
Speaker 1: also known as Maxie.

4
00:00:18,280 --> 00:00:20,880
Speaker 2: Not you, Maxi, but you can't stick around.

5
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:25,279
Speaker 1: Maxi is a professional firefighter. He was one of the

6
00:00:25,440 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 1: superstars on a famous TV show called Bondai Rescue and

7
00:00:30,880 --> 00:00:35,560
Speaker 1: he has educated over thirty thousand children all over Australia

8
00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:41,120
Speaker 1: on how to become superheroes and real life emergencies. Hi, Maxi,

9
00:00:41,720 --> 00:00:43,720
Speaker 1: Louise and I are excited to talk to you.

10
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:47,360
Speaker 2: Yes we are. Oh, I see you're at a fire station.

11
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:50,920
Speaker 2: Wait does that mean that if there's a fire you

12
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:51,720
Speaker 2: might have to leave?

13
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 3: If there's a full emergency, one of the gals will

14
00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:54,800
Speaker 3: come in and grab me.

15
00:00:55,040 --> 00:00:59,960
Speaker 1: Oh wow, Well hopefully everything turns out. Okay, let's get started.

16
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 1: Thank you for talking to us so early in the morning.

17
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:05,520
Speaker 1: For you, does your day usually start really early?

18
00:01:05,959 --> 00:01:06,160
Speaker 2: Yes.

19
00:01:06,440 --> 00:01:10,480
Speaker 3: As a firefighter, we do twenty four hour shifts and

20
00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:13,000
Speaker 3: that means all day and all night we're at the

21
00:01:13,040 --> 00:01:15,679
Speaker 3: fire station. So we start early in the morning and

22
00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:18,120
Speaker 3: we go all the way through the day, into the

23
00:01:18,200 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 3: night into the next morning.

24
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:24,479
Speaker 2: Oh wow, so firefighters are working all day long. Yep.

25
00:01:24,800 --> 00:01:27,960
Speaker 1: Think about it. An emergency can happen at any time.

26
00:01:28,440 --> 00:01:32,280
Speaker 1: Imagine if a fire starts at three am, somebody has

27
00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:34,039
Speaker 1: to be able to put it out in time.

28
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:38,160
Speaker 2: Right, That makes sense? Oh, MAXI, I have a question

29
00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,240
Speaker 2: for you. I went with the school to see a

30
00:01:40,280 --> 00:01:42,800
Speaker 2: fire truck today and it has all the clock, spells

31
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 2: lights attached to it. It was so cool, and now

32
00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:49,120
Speaker 2: all my friends want to be firefighters. How old were

33
00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:51,080
Speaker 2: you when you decided to be a fireman.

34
00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:56,040
Speaker 3: When I was two, I remember dreaming of becoming a firefighter,

35
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 3: and I was very lucky enough that I had an

36
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:02,600
Speaker 3: uncle and a cousin that were involved in the fire service,

37
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:07,200
Speaker 3: and they used to give me some of their old clothing.

38
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 3: So when I was at two, three, four or five,

39
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:13,640
Speaker 3: I used to have some of their old firefighter clothes

40
00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 3: and I used to pretend. I used to visualize and

41
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:18,959
Speaker 3: play around being a firefighter.

42
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:22,360
Speaker 2: I play pretend too. Sometimes I'll pretend to be an astronaut,

43
00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:25,280
Speaker 2: or a chef, or a ninja, but my favorite one

44
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:28,360
Speaker 2: is a firefighter. I'd run around with my dog MAXI

45
00:02:28,680 --> 00:02:30,560
Speaker 2: saving ants from imaginary fires.

46
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,320
Speaker 3: When I was quite young. I remember having the uniform

47
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 3: next to the bed. I remember having a garden hose

48
00:02:36,680 --> 00:02:38,960
Speaker 3: under my bed as well, and if I had a

49
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:43,080
Speaker 3: bad dream, I was ready to respond and help if

50
00:02:43,200 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 3: someone in the community needed help.

51
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 2: Wow, you're a real hero. You can even save people

52
00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:50,840
Speaker 2: in your dreams. Yes, he can.

53
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:55,840
Speaker 1: And now, of course you save people in real life

54
00:02:55,960 --> 00:03:00,480
Speaker 1: all the time. How does it feel when you save someone?

55
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:04,360
Speaker 3: Most magical experience is probably saving someone's life where they've

56
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:08,320
Speaker 3: been unconscious, not breathing, and we use the defibrillator and

57
00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:15,440
Speaker 3: we do CPR and that person was not good.

58
00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 2: Oh no, but hold on, what's a a defibrillator? You know?

59
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:24,160
Speaker 1: And TV shows about doctors when someone brings in a

60
00:03:24,200 --> 00:03:27,280
Speaker 1: machine with these two paddles to start a person's hard

61
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:28,560
Speaker 1: after it stops beating.

62
00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:32,760
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, where one of them, you know, is clear exactly.

63
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:36,360
Speaker 1: Well, that machine is called a defibrillator, and it can

64
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:37,720
Speaker 1: save people's lives.

65
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that person taking a breath and been alive.

66
00:03:42,640 --> 00:03:48,000
Speaker 3: It's definitely more magical moments, definitely, And we've been very

67
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:51,960
Speaker 3: fortunate that people have made a full recovery and they're

68
00:03:52,440 --> 00:03:56,520
Speaker 3: living their best life. Yeah, that's pretty pretty magical. Knowing

69
00:03:56,520 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 3: that there's people around this earth right now that are

70
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:01,320
Speaker 3: alive from the so we did as firefighters.

71
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:03,800
Speaker 1: Oh that must be such a beautiful feeling.

72
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 2: Oh but Maxie, on our field trip today, a firefighter

73
00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,600
Speaker 2: told us, you guys don't just rescue people, You sometimes

74
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 2: rescue animals too.

75
00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:15,600
Speaker 3: Yep, So I've got a quick story to share about

76
00:04:15,720 --> 00:04:20,640
Speaker 3: a cat rescue. I've rescued a few, but sometimes cats

77
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,560
Speaker 3: get a bit adventurous, and there's been times where we've

78
00:04:24,680 --> 00:04:28,919
Speaker 3: had to rescue kittens between the two walls. So people

79
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:31,440
Speaker 3: that live in the house don't know that there's kittens

80
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:34,839
Speaker 3: in the wall, but they just hear this well well,

81
00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:38,240
Speaker 3: and they call the firefighters and then we come and

82
00:04:38,279 --> 00:04:40,680
Speaker 3: we try and locate where they are within the wall.

83
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 3: So I've done a couple of rescues like that where

84
00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,919
Speaker 3: they do get stuck and they're only a couple of

85
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:46,360
Speaker 3: days old.

86
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 1: These kittens, Oh poor little things. Well, I'm glad the

87
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:53,279
Speaker 1: people who lived there heard the kittens, and glad you

88
00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:54,599
Speaker 1: were able to rescue them too.

89
00:04:54,640 --> 00:04:58,680
Speaker 2: Of course. Okay, it's official. Wearing an awesome uniform, driving

90
00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:03,560
