00:00:38,765 --> 00:00:40,165
Speaker 1: are you enjoying at the moment.

10
00:00:40,125 --> 00:00:44,964
Speaker 2: Dearest gentle reader. The fourth series of Bridgeton has dropped.

11
00:00:45,004 --> 00:00:46,485
Speaker 2: It is Catney for women.

12
00:00:47,565 --> 00:00:50,604
Speaker 1: The Globe absolutely loves it. What's the first two seasons

13
00:00:50,604 --> 00:00:54,325
Speaker 1: that I tapped out? But it's a big good show though, isn't.

14
00:00:54,125 --> 00:00:57,565
Speaker 2: It beautifully made? Makes me want to go to Bath

15
00:00:57,645 --> 00:00:59,285
Speaker 2: and just have a look at all of the scenery.

16
00:00:59,605 --> 00:01:03,125
Speaker 1: It is just stunning, just saying that Bath is a

17
00:01:03,125 --> 00:01:05,524
Speaker 1: modern city. Brigitton is a fictional.

18
00:01:05,125 --> 00:01:08,045
Speaker 2: Period, but you can still see where they feel.

19
00:01:07,845 --> 00:01:12,205
Speaker 1: Not love, that's not a snapshot of now. Bath is

20
00:01:12,205 --> 00:01:14,925
Speaker 1: a beautiful place. It's such a popular show, isn't it.

21
00:01:15,005 --> 00:01:18,205
Speaker 2: Oh, It's just beautiful and it's just it's gorgeous. And

22
00:01:18,245 --> 00:01:20,845
Speaker 2: the real highlight for me for this season is that

23
00:01:20,885 --> 00:01:25,085
Speaker 2: it features an Australian born actress, which is really really

24
00:01:25,125 --> 00:01:29,165
Speaker 2: exciting year. And her who is a Nighter graduate, is

25
00:01:29,365 --> 00:01:32,325
Speaker 2: in this series and she is the love interest this

26
00:01:32,525 --> 00:01:35,205
Speaker 2: time with Luke Thompson Benedict.

27
00:01:35,365 --> 00:01:37,685
Speaker 1: And I mean, yeah, for Rio and I we're not

28
00:01:37,725 --> 00:01:39,965
Speaker 1: watching it, and I imagine a lot of men listening

29
00:01:40,045 --> 00:01:42,085
Speaker 1: right now. Not to make generalizations, but I think it's

30
00:01:42,085 --> 00:01:45,485
Speaker 1: probably true. You could be naming anyone. And who plays

31
00:01:45,485 --> 00:01:46,285
Speaker 1: bing being this year?

32
00:01:49,005 --> 00:01:52,405
Speaker 2: How raunchy is it this year, Patsy, Well, we'll see.

33
00:01:52,485 --> 00:01:54,685
Speaker 2: We'll see. They're doing a bit of a Stranger Things

34
00:01:54,725 --> 00:01:58,285
Speaker 2: approach in that they're dumping sections of the series. So

35
00:01:58,325 --> 00:02:01,005
Speaker 2: we've got the first four EPs and the second part

36
00:02:01,045 --> 00:02:04,005
Speaker 2: two drops Lady this month about that, if that is.

37
00:02:03,965 --> 00:02:08,804
Speaker 1: To let the ladies cool off, let me just and

38
00:02:08,805 --> 00:02:12,365
Speaker 1: myself on those steamy scenes when Lord wats his face,

39
00:02:12,445 --> 00:02:16,565
Speaker 1: dropped his breeches smelling salts.

40
00:02:17,925 --> 00:02:19,005
Speaker 3: It's a bit like that, but.

41
00:02:18,925 --> 00:02:20,725
Speaker 2: It's very clever, and they're doing it with a lot

42
00:02:20,725 --> 00:02:23,365
Speaker 2: of popular series now and it's just like, you know,

43
00:02:23,965 --> 00:02:26,965
Speaker 2: it's like feeding your addiction and then they snatch it back.

44
00:02:26,885 --> 00:02:29,044
Speaker 1: And tell me, this is that just your show, Patsy,

45
00:02:29,085 --> 00:02:31,764
Speaker 1: Because for my wife it's like she doesn't want me around.

46
00:02:32,005 --> 00:02:33,965
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, no, I for go and just do

47
00:02:34,085 --> 00:02:37,125
Speaker 1: something else because she just it's just her thing. Because

48
00:02:37,165 --> 00:02:39,364
Speaker 1: half the time I think it's also because they're sex scenes.

49
00:02:40,645 --> 00:02:42,165
Speaker 1: She doesn't want me to joke up to tea.

50
00:02:44,405 --> 00:02:46,045
Speaker 2: I was thinking of the love God saying to me,

51
00:02:46,525 --> 00:02:48,285
Speaker 2: what's going on? Who's he on with?

52
00:02:48,725 --> 00:02:48,924
Speaker 3: Oh?

53
00:02:48,965 --> 00:02:51,965
Speaker 2: But who is the who's narrating it? Who is later

54
00:02:52,005 --> 00:02:55,685
Speaker 2: whistled it? It's like, can you please just please just

55
00:02:55,765 --> 00:02:56,125
Speaker 2: let me.

56
00:02:56,085 --> 00:02:57,965
Speaker 1: Watch she's the lady that writes the blog.

57
00:02:58,165 --> 00:03:00,765
Speaker 2: Yes, that, and it's revealed who she is.

58
00:03:03,245 --> 00:03:05,525
Speaker 1: Scandal and they do that do they sort of the

59
00:03:05,525 --> 00:03:07,405
Speaker 1: great thing where they take pop songs and they have

60
00:03:07,485 --> 00:03:10,364
Speaker 1: like love that is so good?

61
00:03:10,445 --> 00:03:14,325
Speaker 2: Yeah, like with beautiful string quartets, and you think like this, oh,

62
00:03:14,365 --> 00:03:16,285
Speaker 2: I know this song is an e cheerance song, or

63
00:03:16,285 --> 00:03:19,285
Speaker 2: it's this it's very clever, it's brilliant. It sort of

64
00:03:19,765 --> 00:03:22,405
Speaker 2: pulls you back into the present when you're sort of

65
00:03:22,445 --> 00:03:23,365
Speaker 2: imagining this, Oh.

66
00:03:23,325 --> 00:03:27,805
Speaker 1: My god, we're in the past. Insurance here would have

67
00:03:27,805 --> 00:03:33,005
Speaker 1: thought fantastic everywhere, no matter where you are, what decades

68
00:03:33,005 --> 00:03:35,365
Speaker 1: you're in, your century, living in tune? Is he not?

69
00:03:35,445 --> 00:03:36,285
Speaker 1: He's omnipotent?

70
00:03:36,565 --> 00:03:41,805
Speaker 3: He's busking in.

71
00:03:39,685 --> 00:03:44,445
Speaker 1: The Christian O'Connell show podcast that we can why don't

72
00:03:44,445 --> 00:03:47,645
Speaker 1: he balance it out? Watch die Hard? Then Alan Rickman

73
00:03:47,885 --> 00:03:51,645
Speaker 1: pays for his infidelity with his life at the end

74
00:03:51,685 --> 00:03:55,565
Speaker 1: of the movie. Mike, that's a great idea. You're restoring

75
00:03:55,645 --> 00:04:01,965
Speaker 1: harmony in my marriage. See look karma he got his Wow.

76
00:04:02,605 --> 00:04:07,325
Speaker 1: How like that's a genius idea about that is I'm

77
00:04:07,365 --> 00:04:08,245
Speaker 1: going to do that.

78
00:04:08,885 --> 00:04:11,605
Speaker 3: High level husbanding. That Wow, that is.

79
00:04:12,005 --> 00:04:14,845
Speaker 1: Very very good. Christian. When Bassi said that Bridgeton was

80
00:04:14,885 --> 00:04:17,485
Speaker 1: doing a stranger things, then I was hope she was

81
00:04:17,525 --> 00:04:21,205
Speaker 1: going to say there are now paranormal demons killing off characters.

82
00:04:21,605 --> 00:04:25,324
Speaker 1: I will start watching us or having relationships with the regulars.

83
00:04:27,844 --> 00:04:32,085
Speaker 1: Glenn Webber, very very good. We're doing We're doing Recommendation

84
00:04:32,205 --> 00:04:35,525
Speaker 1: Station with its every Friday. We share our recommendations, what

85
00:04:35,525 --> 00:04:37,845
Speaker 1: we're enjoying at the moment. You shall you share yours

86
00:04:37,885 --> 00:04:42,365
Speaker 1: as well. Michelle is watching Nurse Jackie, which came a

87
00:04:42,404 --> 00:04:45,445
Speaker 1: couple years ago, which is absoually brilliance from the sopranos

88
00:04:45,604 --> 00:04:48,325
Speaker 1: Edie Falco's show. It's supposed to be incredible. That one

89
00:04:48,325 --> 00:04:50,245
Speaker 1: a lot of awards. It's on SBS. If you want

90
00:04:50,284 --> 00:04:51,684
Speaker 1: to see it here? All right? Two things to me?

91
00:04:51,724 --> 00:04:54,565
Speaker 1: What's a TV show? And one is I think in

92
00:04:54,645 --> 00:04:56,525
Speaker 1: my time here it's the first time I've ever recommended

93
00:04:56,525 --> 00:04:59,485
Speaker 1: an app. Oh wow, yeah, it's a TV show and app.

94
00:04:59,525 --> 00:05:04,485
Speaker 1: So yesterday evening I took a big, bold risk. Our

95
00:05:04,484 --> 00:05:06,645
Speaker 1: twenty one year old has moved back home for color

96
00:05:06,645 --> 00:05:09,044
Speaker 1: weeks getting over her back surgery, and so it was

97
00:05:09,044 --> 00:05:12,804
Speaker 1: just me and her last night, and I queued up

98
00:05:13,205 --> 00:05:15,364
Speaker 1: a new show for us to watch, and soon she

99
00:05:15,445 --> 00:05:18,924
Speaker 1: sat down she was like, no way, I don't like

100
00:05:19,044 --> 00:05:22,285
Speaker 1: sci fi frozen. On the screen was this big new

101
00:05:22,364 --> 00:05:25,364
Speaker 1: Marvel TV show called wonder Man. She was like, plus,

102
00:05:25,404 --> 00:05:29,245
Speaker 1: it's about what superhero guy? No, And I said, it's

103
00:05:29,284 --> 00:05:32,604
Speaker 1: got great reviews. It's supposed to be a very unsuperhero

104
00:05:32,844 --> 00:05:35,844
Speaker 1: TV show. Then I showed regarding review giving it four

105
00:05:35,844 --> 00:05:39,564
Speaker 1: out of five. She respects the girl ardi more sadly

106
00:05:39,645 --> 00:05:44,964
Speaker 1: than and so we watched three episodes straight through. Is

107
00:05:45,005 --> 00:05:47,884
Speaker 1: that good? And let me tell you this, not once

108
00:05:48,325 --> 00:05:51,404
Speaker 1: in three episodes. They're just twenty five minute episodes. Did

109
00:05:51,404 --> 00:05:54,645
Speaker 1: she pick up her phone? That is how I judge it.

110
00:05:55,525 --> 00:05:59,365
Speaker 1: That is huge. Didn't pick up our phone once? And

111
00:05:59,404 --> 00:06:02,204
Speaker 1: I heard it pinging, it was snapping, it was chatting,

112
00:06:02,245 --> 00:06:04,325
Speaker 1: it was gramming, it was talking, but she did not

113
00:06:04,364 --> 00:06:07,525
Speaker 1: reach for that phone. Hey look at you. Yeah, yeah,

114
00:06:07,645 --> 00:06:10,925
Speaker 1: they're gonna keep making show. Guys, there's only five more episodes.

115
00:06:10,964 --> 00:06:14,604
Speaker 1: Then the phone's going to take away from Papa. But yeah,

116
00:06:14,724 --> 00:06:18,724
Speaker 1: wonder Man, what a brilliant show. He's got superhero powers,

117
00:06:18,765 --> 00:06:21,245
Speaker 1: but there's hardly any of that in the show. He's

118
00:06:21,284 --> 00:06:25,044
Speaker 1: trying to control them because he wants to be a

119
00:06:25,044 --> 00:06:31,604
Speaker 1: Hollywood actor. That's that's not true. Me in It's So good,

120
00:06:31,844 --> 00:06:35,444
Speaker 1: cannot recommend enough that is wonder Man on Dizzy Plaster

121
00:06:35,484 --> 00:06:39,284
Speaker 1: and the other thing. I struggled to type at the

122
00:06:39,325 --> 00:06:43,404
Speaker 1: speed that I talk. So it's a nightmare me sending

123
00:06:43,404 --> 00:06:45,765
Speaker 1: an email. And recently it became a real problem when

124
00:06:45,964 --> 00:06:48,205
Speaker 1: I had to write a book, and so I was

125
00:06:48,205 --> 00:06:50,645
Speaker 1: getting so frustrated I was. I tried out a couple

126
00:06:50,685 --> 00:06:54,565
Speaker 1: of different voice dictation apps, tried two or three. There

127
00:06:54,604 --> 00:06:57,445
Speaker 1: were only about sixty to seventy percent curate. There were

128
00:06:57,445 --> 00:07:00,125
Speaker 1: Dissey's glitches, and so it's slowing me down. And so

129
00:07:00,164 --> 00:07:02,365
Speaker 1: then I found one that I have actually used to

130
00:07:02,765 --> 00:07:05,404
Speaker 1: write my book, the book that I've written that comes

131
00:07:05,404 --> 00:07:07,685
Speaker 1: out in August. The whole thing was spoken out loud.

132
00:07:07,685 --> 00:07:11,124
Speaker 1: Because it's a book about speaking and storytelling. It felt

133
00:07:11,165 --> 00:07:14,085
Speaker 1: right that it shouldn't be typed out. I should speak out.

134
00:07:14,205 --> 00:07:16,925
Speaker 1: So I would go for walks a couple of hours

135
00:07:17,005 --> 00:07:19,324
Speaker 1: and I'd be mumbling into my phone. People must have thought,

136
00:07:19,525 --> 00:07:23,965
Speaker 1: it's crazy, dude, much is he doing the show? How

137
00:07:24,005 --> 00:07:26,684
Speaker 1: he does he walking it in? Phoning it in? He's

138
00:07:26,725 --> 00:07:28,925
Speaker 1: walking in the show? What is this? But anyway, I

139
00:07:28,965 --> 00:07:32,285
Speaker 1: would dictate it. This thing called Whisper is ninety nine

140
00:07:32,285 --> 00:07:35,244
Speaker 1: point nine percent. It's incredible. So I now use it

141
00:07:35,285 --> 00:07:37,925
Speaker 1: for emails as well. You just talk away and it

142
00:07:38,005 --> 00:07:40,565
Speaker 1: comes out real time at the speed you're talking.

143
00:07:40,885 --> 00:07:43,364
Speaker 4: I wonder if it can do the Australian accent, which

144
00:07:43,405 --> 00:07:44,125
Speaker 4: we were a bit.

145
00:07:44,285 --> 00:07:46,444
Speaker 1: Well, you have to, you have to. It gets you

146
00:07:46,485 --> 00:07:49,644
Speaker 1: to read various things at various volumes for like five

147
00:07:49,685 --> 00:07:54,445
Speaker 1: minutes beforehand. It learns you. Yes, yes, I'm sure it's

148
00:07:54,485 --> 00:07:58,485
Speaker 1: being uploaded to Chinese nefarious kind of organizations. I don't care.

149
00:07:58,845 --> 00:08:02,564
Speaker 1: I've got nothing remotely interesting in my life, just mumblings

150
00:08:02,565 --> 00:08:04,405
Speaker 1: of stuff I'm going to talk about on the radio show.

151
00:08:05,045 --> 00:08:07,445
Speaker 1: But yeah, Whisper. And because it's an app.

152
00:08:08,685 --> 00:08:10,885
Speaker 3: NOI oh, of course, no.

153
00:08:10,925 --> 00:08:14,124
Speaker 4: Vowels in a square.

154
00:08:14,965 --> 00:08:20,605
Speaker 1: Okay, Boomer wants to correctly spell out whisper no e

155
00:08:22,245 --> 00:08:24,245
Speaker 1: al rio. What's your recommendation station?
