0:00:00.360 --> 0:00:03.880
<v Speaker 1>The Christian O'Connell Breakfast Show, Melbourne's Gold one oh four.

0:00:04.840 --> 0:00:08.160
<v Speaker 2>Have you ever been attacked by furniture? That's what happened

0:00:08.160 --> 0:00:09.799
<v Speaker 2>the fate that happened to me on Sunday, which is

0:00:09.800 --> 0:00:12.160
<v Speaker 2>why I wasn't with you yesterday Monday. Went to lift

0:00:12.200 --> 0:00:14.480
<v Speaker 2>the couch. I don't know if a hangover had anything

0:00:14.480 --> 0:00:15.920
<v Speaker 2>to do with it. I don't think the best thing

0:00:15.960 --> 0:00:18.280
<v Speaker 2>to do for your body beforehand is drink a lot

0:00:18.280 --> 0:00:20.800
<v Speaker 2>of booze. But I pinged my back. I don't know

0:00:20.800 --> 0:00:23.200
<v Speaker 2>what I'd done to it, but ligament and some bulged

0:00:23.360 --> 0:00:26.759
<v Speaker 2>disc is the technical term. I was attacked by the couch.

0:00:26.520 --> 0:00:29.120
<v Speaker 3>Were you're trying to bend from the knees. Everyone knows

0:00:28.880 --> 0:00:29.680
<v Speaker 3>it's not you know.

0:00:29.760 --> 0:00:31.280
<v Speaker 4>You're just a bad form, isn't it.

0:00:31.320 --> 0:00:33.760
<v Speaker 2>You know you just think I just sh I'll just

0:00:33.800 --> 0:00:35.440
<v Speaker 2>shift it over there and just want to get it

0:00:35.479 --> 0:00:38.240
<v Speaker 2>done quickly. It's Sunday morning and my wife went old

0:00:38.280 --> 0:00:41.320
<v Speaker 2>just quickly before you ever breaking sandwich, just moved the couch.

0:00:42.400 --> 0:00:45.280
<v Speaker 3>Ah, And why were you trying to move the couch?

0:00:45.360 --> 0:00:47.680
<v Speaker 3>I saw the state of the floor the next morning,

0:00:47.720 --> 0:00:50.559
<v Speaker 3>after the like after the dance floor had been there

0:00:50.560 --> 0:00:52.800
<v Speaker 3>all night and it was so messy, there's no way.

0:00:53.120 --> 0:00:55.400
<v Speaker 4>Sorry, is this some sort of interior maker?

0:00:55.720 --> 0:00:57.639
<v Speaker 3>I just don't Why Why are you trying to move

0:00:57.640 --> 0:00:59.400
<v Speaker 3>the couch back before you've cleaned the floor.

0:01:00.040 --> 0:01:01.000
<v Speaker 4>So that is a really good point.

0:01:01.000 --> 0:01:03.600
<v Speaker 3>I can't read, my wife. Are you one of those

0:01:03.640 --> 0:01:07.640
<v Speaker 3>things where you like if I over it?

0:01:07.120 --> 0:01:10.080
<v Speaker 4>No clear? Half the mess which moving the couch on it?

0:01:10.200 --> 0:01:10.520
<v Speaker 4>All right?

0:01:10.560 --> 0:01:13.520
<v Speaker 2>So have you been attacked by furniture this morning? On

0:01:18.560 --> 0:01:22.000
<v Speaker 2>item of furniture and what happened? Catherine, Good morning.

0:01:22.480 --> 0:01:27.040
<v Speaker 5>Good morning. I was attacked by a dishwasher.

0:01:27.280 --> 0:01:27.880
<v Speaker 4>What happened?

0:01:29.720 --> 0:01:32.880
<v Speaker 5>I was walking barefoot in the kitchen and I must

0:01:32.920 --> 0:01:36.040
<v Speaker 5>have the door open, kicked it and then I left

0:01:36.040 --> 0:01:38.400
<v Speaker 5>a blood trail down the hallway that I wasn't aware of.

0:01:38.560 --> 0:01:40.560
<v Speaker 5>And I came back and my little voice said what's

0:01:40.560 --> 0:01:43.240
<v Speaker 5>done on your toe? And I'd had jam on my

0:01:43.319 --> 0:01:46.000
<v Speaker 5>crumpet and I said I think it's jam and he

0:01:46.040 --> 0:01:48.880
<v Speaker 5>said numb that blood. I went, oh, and there was

0:01:48.920 --> 0:01:50.240
<v Speaker 5>blood pulling under my foot.

0:01:51.200 --> 0:01:52.920
<v Speaker 4>So what do you didn't cut your foot or your

0:01:52.960 --> 0:01:53.480
<v Speaker 4>shin on it?

0:01:54.400 --> 0:01:57.160
<v Speaker 5>My toe? I kicked it. And you know when you

0:01:57.240 --> 0:01:59.320
<v Speaker 5>hear that little cartlage pop, I thought, did I break it?

0:01:59.400 --> 0:02:02.880
<v Speaker 5>And I know that right? And then I realized I

0:02:02.920 --> 0:02:05.520
<v Speaker 5>split it right across the top my middle coat.

0:02:06.280 --> 0:02:09.600
<v Speaker 3>Now, But how how can it not be? The toes

0:02:09.639 --> 0:02:11.920
<v Speaker 3>are so painful? How can you not have noticed you

0:02:11.960 --> 0:02:17.760
<v Speaker 3>did it?

0:02:12.760 --> 0:02:12.959
<v Speaker 6>Oh?

0:02:19.000 --> 0:02:21.359
<v Speaker 2>If you pucked out four kids stubborn a little toe,

0:02:21.360 --> 0:02:24.280
<v Speaker 2>a little bit of blood and clar everywhere is nothing.

0:02:25.960 --> 0:02:28.799
<v Speaker 5>Nothing. And then my husband took my kids to older

0:02:28.840 --> 0:02:31.280
<v Speaker 5>kids to the bus and then I was wiping blood

0:02:31.320 --> 0:02:33.120
<v Speaker 5>up off the floor and I just wrapped it up,

0:02:33.520 --> 0:02:36.520
<v Speaker 5>went to my third day of the new jobs and just.

0:02:36.480 --> 0:02:37.120
<v Speaker 6>Sucked it up.

0:02:40.560 --> 0:02:42.520
<v Speaker 3>That sounded like a small digit Christian there that he

0:02:42.600 --> 0:02:43.880
<v Speaker 3>did two days off work.

0:02:43.960 --> 0:02:45.280
<v Speaker 4>I felt that, mate, I felt that.

0:02:45.680 --> 0:02:47.160
<v Speaker 2>And they're just giving me a little dig like you know,

0:02:47.160 --> 0:02:49.240
<v Speaker 2>you should just put towel around and come into work.

0:02:49.919 --> 0:02:53.519

<v Speaker 2>the show. David, welcome to the show. And what I

0:03:21.720 --> 0:03:23.399
<v Speaker 2>to have furniture attacked you?

0:03:24.040 --> 0:03:24.239
<v Speaker 1>Well?

0:03:24.520 --> 0:03:25.200
<v Speaker 8>Washing machine?

0:03:25.639 --> 0:03:27.080
<v Speaker 4>The washing machine? What did it do to you?

0:03:28.160 --> 0:03:30.519
<v Speaker 8>Once upon a time I was in an appliance, a pairment,

0:03:30.600 --> 0:03:33.880
<v Speaker 8>so I was actually fixing a washing machine. The top

0:03:33.919 --> 0:03:36.120
<v Speaker 8>section of it was held on with a couple of

0:03:36.120 --> 0:03:38.960
<v Speaker 8>big spring clips and I was putting it back together,

0:03:39.040 --> 0:03:41.240
<v Speaker 8>and you've got to put a fair bit of weight

0:03:41.280 --> 0:03:43.200
<v Speaker 8>onto it to push these clips back in the place.

0:03:43.320 --> 0:03:46.040
<v Speaker 8>And I was wearing footy shorts at the time, and

0:03:46.200 --> 0:03:50.040
<v Speaker 8>both pieces of manhood got caught inched in the lid.

0:03:50.240 --> 0:03:56.200
<v Speaker 9>What yeah, put it on a rint cycle, the old

0:03:56.200 --> 0:04:02.320
<v Speaker 9>long one as well. But he short while you you

0:04:02.360 --> 0:04:04.960
<v Speaker 9>are asking for trouble if something's going to get trapped

0:04:05.120 --> 0:04:06.080
<v Speaker 9>or court somewhere.

0:04:06.720 --> 0:04:09.440
<v Speaker 8>Ended up at the hospital to make sure everything was

0:04:09.480 --> 0:04:11.040
<v Speaker 8>all right because there was a fair bit of blood

0:04:11.040 --> 0:04:13.200
<v Speaker 8>and mother guy at every nurse in the hospital come

0:04:13.240 --> 0:04:13.720
<v Speaker 8>to have a look.

<v Speaker 2>What's the line in there're sending about Mary where he's

0:04:16.800 --> 0:04:17.440

<v Speaker 4>We're gonna be.

0:04:18.240 --> 0:04:22.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, in my mind this is only funny if they

0:04:22.920 --> 0:04:25.000
<v Speaker 2>will you into the emotion. When you still got the

0:04:25.160 --> 0:04:28.400
<v Speaker 2>washing machine attached to you, it's like you're wearing it

0:04:28.480 --> 0:04:31.560

<v Speaker 4>us about the bit of furniture you were attacked by.

0:07:16.840 --> 0:07:19.120
<v Speaker 7>Well, I was a very young, first year out teacher

0:07:19.880 --> 0:07:22.880
<v Speaker 7>and I was working in a classroom with a mobile

0:07:23.240 --> 0:07:27.280
<v Speaker 7>blackboard or a blackboard on an easel. I was writing

0:07:27.320 --> 0:07:31.720
<v Speaker 7>on the blackboard and somehow it came the blackboard fell

0:07:31.760 --> 0:07:34.720
<v Speaker 7>off the easel and onto my head, and I was

0:07:34.760 --> 0:07:37.920
<v Speaker 7>pinned between the with the blackboard stuck on my head

0:07:38.200 --> 0:07:41.720
<v Speaker 7>with a group of very raw, young seven year seven

0:07:41.800 --> 0:07:46.520
<v Speaker 7>children all coming, are you okay? Miss? Are you okay? Miss?

0:07:46.560 --> 0:07:49.000
<v Speaker 7>While the blackboard is still stuck on my head, I'm

0:07:49.000 --> 0:07:52.440
<v Speaker 7>supporting it, and I said, I'm okay, but go next

0:07:52.480 --> 0:07:54.480
<v Speaker 7>door and get another teacher to help me get the

0:07:54.480 --> 0:07:55.560
<v Speaker 7>blackboard off my head.

0:07:56.880 --> 0:07:57.680
<v Speaker 4>You poor thing.

0:07:57.760 --> 0:07:59.880
