Speaker 2: Item one.
Speaker 5: How did this lick? Did you come?
Speaker 2: A Christian No Connall show on Gold one oh four point.

Speaker 5: much for chunning. Good morning, Jackie Boy, Morning guys, come
Speaker 5: on in Pats Morning Boys yesterday and nightmare realization.
Speaker 6: As I got home, I saw that the night before
Speaker 6: Tuesday night has been night for me, and every Tuesday
Speaker 6: it's always a two night bin situation, the normal household
Speaker 6: one and then obviously on alternating weeks, either the recycling
Speaker 6: or it's not that this kind of garden crap, which
Speaker 6: for us it is mainly dog pood. This week, I'd
Speaker 6: put the wrong bin out, which means the recycling did
Speaker 6: not get picked up. I didn't put the recycling bins out,
Speaker 6: which means they're crammed already.
Speaker 5: We've got two of them.
Speaker 6: There's two more weeks now they're full up as it is.
Speaker 6: I don't know how we're going to get through two
Speaker 6: more weeks.
Speaker 4: Why are they so snobby with the recycling bin in Bayside?
Speaker 4: Because we get a recycling goes out every week for hour.
Speaker 6: Then I'll tell you what I'll be bringing in tomorrow
Speaker 6: your recycling. Like you're helping a guy out bringing in
Speaker 6: two large black sacks and I chucked them in the
Speaker 6: TESTA wow, wow, we.
Speaker 4: You can drive them down to the recycling center yourself.
Speaker 5: Why can't I drive them to you? You've gotch.
Speaker 6: Literally take them from the test They put them straight
Speaker 6: into your nice Cavanou's bin. No, do you know I've
Speaker 6: got to do this weekend? Go to my local tip.
Speaker 6: You know, straight away you think, well, that's just ruined
Speaker 6: the weekend. As soon as I saw that, I was like,
Speaker 6: that's the weekend ruin. It probably only take me about
Speaker 6: forty five minutes, but just the thought of an ideal
Speaker 6: weekend is doing as little as possible.
Speaker 4: As Actually don't mind going to the tip. I sort
Speaker 4: of get excited for a fine treasures down there.
Speaker 3: You can't sort through anymore though. It's so sterile there
Speaker 3: finding treasures.
Speaker 5: What have you found down there? What treasures are down there?
Speaker 6: There's just those people they always have a little look
Speaker 6: around the back of you can't don't they the people
Speaker 6: that work there, they're just looking for sort of stuff
Speaker 6: they can have a way or they go, what's that
Speaker 6: got in there?
Speaker 5: Is it true? You're not meant to shift anymore?
Speaker 6: Because I've s got all those those big trucks not
Speaker 6: reversing around.
Speaker 5: I found a ball? What, oh my god?
Speaker 4: Like a soccer ball, but not a traditional soccer ball.
Speaker 5: Just like lucky to have got this treasure. Why aren't
Speaker 5: you on the news on antiques road show? Where did
Speaker 5: you find it? Is it?
Speaker 6: Has it been in the family long? I found it
Speaker 6: down the tip A ball.
Speaker 5: I admit that that's a low bud from the tip.
Speaker 5: What's it cost you? That it came up two dollars?
Speaker 5: But that that's something you can find on a normal,
Speaker 5: normal ancient blunder.
Speaker 6: It's a ball, It's a ball anyway, Pats, how are
Speaker 6: you Percy? What did you get up to yesterday?
Speaker 3: What we got a bonus to last night? Jack and
Speaker 3: Christian we were we had a thing on at school.
Speaker 3: So it was a really scrappy dinner. I thought, well,
Speaker 3: just order pizza. We ordered a Domino's pizza, and you can.
Speaker 6: Pay Dominoes when you're in a rush down a loaded
Speaker 6: pepperoni on one of those little kids driving that mope.
Speaker 3: You can pay it an extra three bucks to get
Speaker 3: it within I think like twenty minutes, and I thought.
Speaker 5: We're charging you extra for that now. I just thought
Speaker 5: that hopefully you'll get there in twenty minutes.
Speaker 3: Anyway, it came in like twenty three minutes, and I thought,
Speaker 3: that's all right.
Speaker 6: I just read time with a stopwatch out there.
Speaker 5: It shot the same pitch. You need to go around again,
Speaker 5: quicker shave three minutes off that.
Speaker 3: You should see the app. They've got like a countdown.
Speaker 3: You can even see them cook your pizza.
Speaker 5: It's crazy. It goes. We're just adding the toppings. It's
Speaker 5: on its way too. I love seeing that you see
Speaker 5: them cooking it.
Speaker 3: They have a camera in the ovens and you can
Speaker 3: see your actual pizza go through.
Speaker 5: Patsy, is it yours? I recognize it's just generic for
Speaker 5: Tuesday film once. I'm not going to go hang on
Speaker 5: a minute.
Speaker 6: That's not pepperoni. Hey, shouting through the microphone, going take
Speaker 6: that Bineapple off there, I said, now extras, all you
Speaker 6: see it is footage of a pizza.
Speaker 3: Anyway, it's amazing. And I got an email later in
Speaker 3: the night to say sorry, we didn't get there in time.
Speaker 3: He's a free pizza on us. I thought, bonus, tonight's dinner.
Speaker 6: I know he's saying every day email and I already
Speaker 6: my pizza and it was ten hours late.
Speaker 5: That's ten pizzas you owe me.
Speaker 2: The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 6: Just mention earlier because I put the wrong bin out
Speaker 6: this week, which means this weekend I've got to take
Speaker 6: the recycling myself. God damn it, all of a seven
Speaker 6: minute trip that is going to be this weekend.
Speaker 5: Weekend's over.
Speaker 6: I take the recycle myself to my local tip. They
Speaker 6: are tips to me, right the prime time to enjoy
Speaker 6: a tip. As a kid, my sort of big bonding
Speaker 6: thing was my dad was once a month we go
Speaker 6: to local tip. And yeah, we were just going because
Speaker 6: you could just hang out out there, and they weren't
Speaker 6: like they are now where everything's in separate sort of hoppers,
Speaker 6: and recycling wasn't a thing in the eighties, so it
Speaker 6: was all just right.
Speaker 5: So he likes like TVs.
Speaker 4: That's how I remember as a kid as just mountains separate,
Speaker 4: the metals separate this and that. It's just like everything
Speaker 4: in a big mountain and you're allowed to go.
Speaker 6: No one knew, you know, the damage you're doing, like
Speaker 6: they were just like burning tires and stuff like that.
Speaker 6: Even David app into it a back the end of
Speaker 6: the day, no one need any different was now it's
Speaker 6: all it's all separated. You've got to go completely different
Speaker 6: bit to the recycling. Can't just wander around. And Jack
Speaker 6: said that obviously it's an exciting thing to go these days.
Speaker 6: The tip you can get trash is not the time
Speaker 6: he found a ball, but you're in this story.
Speaker 5: But this last year.
Speaker 4: The other thing that I tried to get, but Banker
Speaker 4: said no. I called her from the tip and said,
Speaker 4: someone's got rid of rolls and rolls of turf and
Speaker 4: it's just like grass that's rolled up.
Speaker 5: The guy from the castle. Now we might need it
Speaker 5: one day because I know it's.
Speaker 4: Expensive transport, Like should we bring this home, keep it
Speaker 4: wet like they do with free Willie.
Speaker 5: When we need it, we can roll it, store it
Speaker 5: to somewhere in the backyards.
Speaker 6: That's why she said, no, Rio was just telling us
Speaker 6: what did you don't bring home from the tip?
Speaker 7: Dad brought home an eel, like a lone one, like
Speaker 7: a live eel.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 7: I was just sitting in the car and he came
Speaker 7: back with a white bucket and look what I found
Speaker 7: And it was like a fully grown.
Speaker 5: She is brought now.
Speaker 6: Rio is from Sydney. The tips there are very different.
Speaker 6: They've got like lobsters. People are lobsters eels?
Speaker 5: Really, where did you keep the eel? And the toilet?
Speaker 7: So we had a fish pond like a big fish pond.
Speaker 7: We got co you got co in the no, not
Speaker 7: fancy enough for coy. But the eel like obviously just
Speaker 7: ate all the fish like a Later were like, oh,
Speaker 7: there's no fish because the eel ate all the fish.
Speaker 5: And did he find it in the tub or was
Speaker 5: it just swimming through the trash. I'm not sure.
Speaker 6: I've just been swimming through the trash, not feral animals
Speaker 6: like that.
Speaker 5: Patching your old man, never bring anything back to you.
Speaker 6: I remember my dad when I once brought back, come
Speaker 6: if there was a very nice wicker chair there, which
Speaker 6: my mom still has. My mom's obsessed with wicker, right,
Speaker 6: she's just she could turn that house and build.
Speaker 5: It out of wicker. Wicker.
Speaker 6: Mom, she actually no, we were her sister's funeral years ago,
Speaker 6: and you know her Mum's get on more.
Speaker 5: But she goes, you know you need to know what
Speaker 5: plans you know I want to happen.
Speaker 6: I said, Mom, there's nothing wrong with you, okay, just
Speaker 6: just we're at a funeral. It's not something you can catch.
Speaker 6: You're okay, and I've got feeling you will outlive all
Speaker 6: of us. But anyway, she goes, bury me in a
Speaker 6: wicker coffin a which it's not a thing.
Speaker 3: No, you can get them, yes.
Speaker 6: To get her mother's day you mentioned it.
Speaker 5: I pay attention this. I got your wicked coffee. It
Speaker 5: looks like a giant picture basket. No, anytime you feel it,
Speaker 5: well go and lie down in it.
Speaker 6: Just make it easy, veryone. Just go have a big
Speaker 6: old nap in there.
Speaker 5: Where'd you get a wicked coffin from?
Speaker 3: You know I have seen them before. Now we're all
Speaker 3: environmentally aware and everything.
Speaker 5: You can get all the way, she said, everything and.
Speaker 3: All that, But you can get wicker basket coffins. You
Speaker 3: can get all sorts.
Speaker 6: Hang on, it can't be a basket. I can't curl
Speaker 6: my mama. Can I just point out my mum is alive.
Speaker 6: I'm speculating about a death that is hopefully a long
Speaker 6: while off. Not fit my mum in a basket?
Speaker 4: And Patter and Chris, why are you looking for eco
Speaker 4: friendly coffins as well?
Speaker 6: She's a member of the mob out I said they
Speaker 6: do it now it's eco friendly hit Christian.

Speaker 5: or virus, but no, it appears to be Jack's generation,
Speaker 5: the millennials.
Speaker 6: What a show from him yesterday three? He makes three
Speaker 6: points tip, But what heard from here? Christian has been
Speaker 6: going on for a while. It started number one. It
Speaker 6: started with their no longer care for a great story
Speaker 6: in a movie. His Top Gun dislike started this the
Speaker 6: other week. He'd obviously prefer the effects special effects of
Speaker 6: modern movies are on a good solid story.
Speaker 4: It's not got anything to do with special effects, Top Gun.
Speaker 4: If you watch it is lamer than the notebook.
Speaker 6: Why are you dubbing down on it? It's a great movie.
Speaker 5: It's about buddies. Okay, one the buddies dies. What's sadder
Speaker 5: than that?
Speaker 4: All I remember is him riding around pensive on a
Speaker 4: motorcycle for two hours.
Speaker 5: Yeah, because he had that demons in there.
Speaker 6: Goose was still in his heart and in his head
Speaker 6: and in his helmet. Second point here the dislike of
Speaker 6: the solid go to of any bakery, the veanina slice.
Speaker 6: This pushed me over the edge here in this Christian
Speaker 6: this is the baked good all bakeries are judged on.
Speaker 6: It's true, isn't it. It's the definitive scene.
Speaker 5: What did Jack like?
Speaker 6: The crona something fancy and modifying in a laboratory. And
Speaker 6: three he actually said on the called yesterday he thinks
Speaker 6: that billionaire Jeff Bezos eating the Mona Lisa would be
Speaker 6: a great thing to watch, and seems stunned that you
Speaker 6: didn't join him in this, at one point saying he
Speaker 6: didn't believe you.
Speaker 5: Goodbye, cruel world. It's been a blast. As comes from Mark.
Speaker 4: We would all watch it if it happened. I'm not

Speaker 6: Yesterday morning reminded me of the Fragle toys my mum
Speaker 6: bought us one Christmas when I was eight. Snooping a
Speaker 6: month or so prior to the big day, as we
Speaker 6: all did, I found these large, three Fragle soft toys
Speaker 6: hidden in Mum's wardrobe. Every spare second I was able
Speaker 6: were mum and I would sneak in there and play
Speaker 6: with them, and then delicately carefully put them back in
Speaker 6: the plastic bags and pretend I didn't know they were there.
Speaker 5: Christmas Day rolls around. I'm so excited.
Speaker 6: These things have now trailed four hours in the car

Speaker 5: Red Fraggle?
Speaker 3: Yes, she's my favorite.
Speaker 6: Yeah, my cousin gets Wembley and I get Boober. Boober
Speaker 6: was the dullest one. It was like the scrappy Doo
Speaker 6: of the whole thing. Everyone hated him, Scrubby Doo. You email,
Speaker 6: We've lost him, Babe's.
Speaker 5: Cousin Scrubby, like he ruined the franchise. No one likes

Speaker 5: Christian.
Speaker 6: We were also talking as well about these school sound
Speaker 6: the school sandwich.
Speaker 5: You would make, you know that sandwich when they came
Speaker 5: home from school, and you would chop together a load
Speaker 5: of ingredients that probably didn't really belong together in a sandwich.
Speaker 5: After Patsy's reminded every one of your genius thing you
Speaker 5: used to do it the monoleetically Milo pulled into your mouth.
Speaker 3: Yeah, white bread, margarine and my life.
Speaker 6: Christian, I discovered as a kid by my after school
Speaker 6: sandwich was vegemite and strawberry jam Vicki's emailed in Christian.

Speaker 6: Those pro level to this cooling shows, aren't they. No
Speaker 6: what have you got for us?
Speaker 5: Mate? You have found something to at the tip.
Speaker 8: So my father was a pickup or the term picker
Speaker 8: became like synonymous with reality television. So he used to
Speaker 8: bring home random crap all the time, right, but the
Speaker 8: pinnacle of this random crap. Wise, one day he's fronted
Speaker 8: from the tip with this oak framed oil painting of
Speaker 8: this old tool ship. And I've said, Jim works, it's
Speaker 8: a bit of clap. What do we what are you
Speaker 8: ringing that ome for? He goes, no, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 8: this is valuable, this is value. No no, nah, suret
Speaker 8: rubbish rabbish rabbish. He says, all right, I'll prove you wrong.
Speaker 8: I'm going to take it down to the auction room
Speaker 8: and get it favre. And I said, what a waste
Speaker 8: of type count seriously. So off he goes and he said,
Speaker 8: he said, come with me, come with me, Come with you,
Speaker 8: he said, he brings it. He brings it down to
Speaker 8: the auction room and they pick it up and they go, oh, yes,
Speaker 8: it's a Captain Horton Forest. Mister Smith, it's very very valuable.
Speaker 8: Would you be happy with a two thousand dollars reserve
Speaker 8: if you put your auction and and I'm like jaws
Speaker 8: dropped anyway, So we go to the auction two three,
Speaker 8: five seven, ended up getting eight and a half grand.
Speaker 5: No way for those painting that old man.
Speaker 9: This oil painting of the tall Ship Tasmanian painter, nineteenth century.
Speaker 9: So my father had a good eye, obviously, but clearly
Speaker 9: I don't. But the the PostScript to this story is
Speaker 9: he actually used the money to pay for my sister
Speaker 9: and I to actually go on a trip for worldwide trip.
Speaker 5: So work with.
Speaker 4: And it didn't sound like your dad went on the trip.
Speaker 4: Is that you paid for you and your sister to go?
Speaker 9: Yeah, exactly, see you later. Yeah, clearly you didn't like
Speaker 9: my advice on what not to bring home from the tip.
Speaker 6: What a story. Well, we'll give you one of our
Speaker 6: third PostScript. We'll give you one of our liveless stains
Speaker 6: for that story. That's great new, Thank you very much.
Speaker 8: Thanks Christian.
Speaker 5: Two words that.
Speaker 6: That pinnacle, No so the other one I use. Let's
Speaker 6: squeeze Andrew in then Andrew, Good morning Christian, Good morning Andy.

Speaker 5: lovely stuff.
Speaker 6: Okay, thank you very much, Andrew well worth going to
Speaker 6: that one.
Speaker 2: The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 6: When we doing three topics Tuesday the other day, one
Speaker 6: of the topics was after after this amazing story and
Speaker 6: it does seem like a talk story, but it's an
Speaker 6: incredible story about a lobster fisherman who was swallowed whole
Speaker 6: and then spat out by a humpback.
Speaker 5: Well, one of the doctors who.
Speaker 6: Was attending to him has said, I'm sure it's a
Speaker 6: count matches up.
Speaker 5: I want to believe that this too.
Speaker 6: So nine his mate in the boat saw as well
Speaker 6: it's not the best eyewitness account. Is that your mate
Speaker 6: in a boat so you get spat out. But anyway,
Speaker 6: this is what they're saying album that they got swallow pole
Speaker 6: by a lobster and then lived to town.
Speaker 5: The town. So we're worrying, have you been Oh sorry, yes,
Speaker 5: a mega lobster. I've seen it here in Australia.
Speaker 6: There must be others out there, the mega lobster and
Speaker 6: that mega koala.
Speaker 5: Just wandering around at night.
Speaker 6: So we're asking you have you been where no other
Speaker 6: listener has been before? Because that guy clearly has inside
Speaker 6: a humpback. Well this comes from Oli, who has not one,
Speaker 6: but two stories for us about going where no other
Speaker 6: listener has.
Speaker 5: Firstly, we go to Egypt. Egypt, you say, I asked
Speaker 5: them eordly for some music. Yeah, Egypt, I say.
Speaker 6: Did a tour of Egypt with my wife twelve years
Speaker 6: ago and we got to the Valley of the Kings,
Speaker 6: which is where the pharaohs who are mum fired in
Speaker 6: their tombs. We got to enter and see Tutan Carmun's tomb,
Speaker 6: which was incredible, and they had his remains in a
Speaker 6: glass container on display, which was a bit creepy.
Speaker 5: It's not creepy. It's his tomb.
Speaker 6: You're not supposed to be in there. Very interesting place Egypt.
Speaker 6: We had to say we were married at the time
Speaker 6: because all the men kept asking how much I would
Speaker 6: sell my not why for I was offered camels, chickens
Speaker 6: at one point, free cash cylinders.
Speaker 5: But the main one.
Speaker 6: Don't need the Egyptian music anymore, kill the Gypsy music.
Speaker 5: But that's why.
Speaker 4: Not somewhere that no one's been before me through.
Speaker 5: All day, all day.
Speaker 6: You didn't just sort of going round the back hang,
Speaker 6: I'm me just press this.
Speaker 5: We're in there.
Speaker 4: He actually said they've got something on display, the display
Speaker 4: to people who are coming through.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and they probably a gift shop on the way
Speaker 6: out as well. But the main one is the rotunda.
Speaker 6: From the sound of music, I'm familiar with the sound
Speaker 6: of music kids when they were youngest.
Speaker 5: I love watching that. I watched the road thunder.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was that beautiful thing in the garden with
Speaker 3: glass and lattice surround it. You know, you'd go in
Speaker 3: there at a summer house and you'd take afternoon tea
Speaker 3: in the day, would.
Speaker 5: You you know what stood out there?
Speaker 6: Perhaps he loves lattice lattice around your property. He's got
Speaker 6: soul lattice fence.
Speaker 5: I've got some latter.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, definitely good to know anyway, good old lattice
Speaker 6: chaut on the show. My wife loves that movie Sellam
Speaker 6: is about with this guy Onie and it was one
Speaker 6: of her favorites. So five years ago we went a
Speaker 6: winter trip to Europe and included Saltzburg, where the rotunda

Speaker 12: Now we're staying in a caravan park down at McCrae.
Speaker 12: My kids were very young at the time, so it's
Speaker 12: about twenty five years ago. And I'm a fairly active
Speaker 12: sort of person. And when I wasn't out in my
Speaker 12: boat fishing, I was hanging around the caravan park getting bored,
Speaker 12: drinking and just generally wasting time. So I went out
Speaker 12: to get milk one morning and walk past the state agent,
Speaker 12: saw this little house and I thought I can afford that.
Speaker 12: So yeah, a couple of hours later we'd signed on
Speaker 12: the dotted line and we bought ourselves a holiday house.
Speaker 5: Very expensive walk, much expensive walk of your life, Rob.
Speaker 12: It was, but it was very enjoyable walk afterwards.
Speaker 5: Yeah you still got the holiday home. No earlier have I.
Speaker 5: It's very sad.
Speaker 6: Christian o'con podcast we've been talking about you went out
Speaker 6: for milk and then once you come back home with Christian.
Speaker 6: My housemate went out for Sunday beers and bought the
Speaker 6: house next door.
Speaker 5: What drunk?
Speaker 6: Or did he mean to Christian? I went out to
Speaker 6: get the morning paper, came home after buying a shop
Speaker 6: that is the most extravagant one we've heard about the
Speaker 6: holiday home. But buying a shop that is not a sort.
Speaker 5: Of I've always been thinking about owning a shop. What
Speaker 5: kind of shop did you buy?
Speaker 4: You know there's too many shops on Gumtry. I was
Speaker 4: serving in gum Tree this week. Yeah, you mean Indian restaurant.
Speaker 4: You can buy the whole thing on cometry.
Speaker 6: I didn't know that that's how they sold them. I
Speaker 6: just thought that we had down in businesses or his
Speaker 6: family owned.
Speaker 5: You can buy shops on cometry. I'll find it now,
Speaker 5: see what shops are available? Okay?
Speaker 6: And I want to know what kind of budget they're
Speaker 6: talking about. I don't know you could just casually buy
Speaker 6: an entire sort of business. And sure anyway, this guy
Speaker 6: mark Christian. I went out for the morning baby, came
Speaker 6: home after buying the shop, went home without the paper
Speaker 6: and got into trouble and offer buying the shop forget
Speaker 6: the paper.
Speaker 5: My wife sent me.
Speaker 6: Straight back out to go and get the paper, strips
Speaker 6: instructions not to buy anything else before I got the
Speaker 6: paper first. That's what Mark? Can you email me? But
Speaker 6: I don't know. I know you're listening at the moment.
Speaker 6: What was the shop you bought? And are you still running?
Speaker 6: Running it?
Speaker 5: Jack? What's for sale? Shot?
Speaker 11: See?
Speaker 4: Just a preliminary search turns up a fit through a
Speaker 4: hair salon?
Speaker 5: You want to buy it? Do you know what? You know?
Speaker 6: I've always harbored an alternative universe to me that I
Speaker 6: would have been a hairdresser, and I think it would
Speaker 6: have been very happy just chatting to people cut their hair.
Speaker 6: I always thought it looks like a nice job to do,
Speaker 6: being a hairdresser.
Speaker 5: Well, you could go straight from here and then go
Speaker 5: into a hairdressing day. Keep it, you know what I'm like?
Speaker 6: By three in the afternoon, whoever they book in for
Speaker 6: a three o'clock you're coming out with a very lopsided haircuts.
Speaker 5: I nod off on to sleep my head in the
Speaker 5: battle there? What else is for sale on gum Tree?
Speaker 5: Give me a second to find the showga.
Speaker 6: You guys love this The other day, right when my
Speaker 6: kids came home and asked me a question. They've been
Speaker 6: doing something in English, and it's the thing that you
Speaker 6: want to ask me? Was if I could go back
Speaker 6: in time and meet the eighteen year old me? You
Speaker 6: know often they people talk about, you know, writing a
Speaker 6: letter to the eighteen year old self.
Speaker 5: This was if I could go back and meet the
Speaker 5: eighteen year old me? Right?
Speaker 6: What five words, no more than five words a device
Speaker 6: would I give? And I don't think it's very nice
Speaker 6: when people say they go back and say, don't do
Speaker 6: this and do that, because actually, all those mistakes you
Speaker 6: make in life, hopefully, hopefully they make you wiser and
Speaker 6: they get you to a bed place where you are
Speaker 6: in life. Right, However, if I genuinely could go back
Speaker 6: and meet the eighteen year old me, do you know
Speaker 6: what I really wish I knew?
Speaker 5: Then take more photos. I didn't take nowhere near enough photos, right.
Speaker 6: I would look back now and I tell my kids'
Speaker 6: stories and then they're like, oh, you must have photos
Speaker 6: because they document too much. But every single element they're lives.
Speaker 6: I just didn't you know all these stories that I've
Speaker 6: had now where you struggle to remember what that was like,
Speaker 6: I'd kill for a photo now of like first holidays
Speaker 6: with mates and stuff like that. We didn't really take
Speaker 6: any photos. You too busy living. It wasn't really a
Speaker 6: thing to document everything. Yeah, I wish i'd more photo.
Speaker 4: I had the problem when I was making mom's slide
Speaker 4: show for Mother's Day.
Speaker 5: Mum was obviously the person in our family who was
Speaker 5: behind the camera.
Speaker 6: Even if I found it out, my wife takes all
Speaker 6: the photos and me and the kids moan all the time.
Speaker 6: And then when we do look back and see these
Speaker 6: wonderful photos, my wife was going.
Speaker 3: Isn't for me exactly?
Speaker 5: And his photos?
Speaker 6: But yeah, that would be the three words, take more photos.
Speaker 6: I really wish i'd done that. Jackie boy, what would
Speaker 6: it be for you?
Speaker 5: Okay?
Speaker 4: If I think of myself as an eighteen year old,
Speaker 4: what was young jack like?
Speaker 5: At eighteen?
Speaker 4: I got my first proper long term girlfriend, and I
Speaker 4: dream moment everything else in my life.
Speaker 5: Yeah, of course every guy does it. Did your dad
Speaker 5: warn you? My dad told me for doing this.
Speaker 4: Yes, My parents kept trying to say, like please still
Speaker 4: study for school, like.
Speaker 5: Don't have even your friends. My dad pulled me aside,
Speaker 5: turn me to the pub. And said, you're not going
Speaker 5: to marry this girl. And I was like, you don't
Speaker 5: know that. I might go.
Speaker 6: You won't marry the first one. You shouldn't, Okay, it's
Speaker 6: not the right thing to do, And he said no.
Speaker 6: So if if it all ends, your friends will remember
Speaker 6: you and take the mickey out of you. It' suddenly
Speaker 6: come creeping back. Six months later she dumped me. Obviously,
Speaker 6: my dad still talks about it now.
Speaker 5: You would not be told it was. He said.
Speaker 6: It was like watching someone to slowly drive into a
Speaker 6: huge wreckage of her by love.
Speaker 5: It's so like that eighteen year old love is so intoxicating,
Speaker 5: isn't it.
Speaker 4: My story is almost exactly the same. So I didn't
Speaker 4: do any study for year twelve. I thought I won't
Speaker 4: need this. I'm in love doing this.
Speaker 5: That's why we're both here.
Speaker 4: And my friends who I'm still friends with today, and
Speaker 4: I neglected them for a whole year, didn't really see them,
Speaker 4: and then that girl dumped me six months out of
Speaker 4: high school.
Speaker 6: I think it's a standard thing for people like you
Speaker 6: and I JA it's six months. We're good for six months.
Speaker 2: The Christian O'Connor Show podcast, We're.
Speaker 6: Going to chat to someone in a minute who I
Speaker 6: think has a story that is the same as some
Speaker 6: of you mum's dad's teenagers on the school run right now.
Speaker 5: People worried about your job.
Speaker 6: He emailed me after I spoke, Oh, I think it
Speaker 6: was two weeks ago now about something I hadn't been
Speaker 6: able to speak about for years, and that I was
Speaker 6: going to be sharing in my book. And that was
Speaker 6: seven years ago. I had severe panic attacks. They were
Speaker 6: so bad they stopped me doing the thing I love
Speaker 6: in my life, and that is this radio talking to
Speaker 6: you guys. It was already scary time. I was terrified.
Speaker 6: I felt very alone, but with the help of my
Speaker 6: awesome wife, I got help and I got through it.
Speaker 6: I grew through it and now on the other side
Speaker 6: of the world with you guys and loving this new
Speaker 6: life here. And I only said a few words, or
Speaker 6: I thought I could say a few words on the
Speaker 6: show because it was going to be in my book,
Speaker 6: and I thought I could just share my dirty little secret.
Speaker 6: I didn't want to feel ashamed anymore. I thought a
Speaker 6: better say a few words and move on. But if
Speaker 6: you heard it, you'll know that wasn't what happened. The
Speaker 6: emotions overcame me and I turned into a hot, blubbing
Speaker 6: mess life on the radio. But then something really incredible
Speaker 6: to start happening and studies. I started getting these amazing
Speaker 6: emails from you, just sharing your stories, and one of
Speaker 6: them really flawed me. From the guy we're about to
Speaker 6: speak to, Matthew now in my heart and I noticed
Speaker 6: the Jack and Pats and our little team that put
Speaker 6: the show together with us. We want this show for
Speaker 6: however long we have you in the morning, five ten
Speaker 6: minutes to be a little beacon of light for you guys,
Speaker 6: and you were that for me last week, and now
Speaker 6: I'd like to do that for Matthews, a dad who's
Speaker 6: in a tough spot and needs to know that he
Speaker 6: isn't alone right now because he isn't.
Speaker 5: Let's speak to Matthew.
Speaker 14: Good morning, Christian, how are you.
Speaker 5: I'm good, mate, Tell one's going on with you. Mate.
Speaker 14: There's actually the emotion that you had to deliver coming
Speaker 14: out of nowhere. It really prompted me in regards to
Speaker 14: a situation I've had the Mark family, and especially my
Speaker 14: fifteen year old daughter, who has really struggled over the
Speaker 14: last eighteen months.
Speaker 5: Sorry about this, take your time right is you having
Speaker 5: a really tough time?
Speaker 14: Mat halfway through the year she started developing massive about
Speaker 14: of anxiety and depression.
Speaker 12: She barely.
Speaker 14: Barely leaves her room. She didn't end up going back
Speaker 14: to school when it reopened in term four, and we
Speaker 14: were going to try and start off in term one.
Speaker 14: She had massive anxiety attacked on the bus on the
Speaker 14: way to school. I had to pick her up from
Speaker 14: school because she'd broken down in class.
Speaker 1: And it's.
Speaker 14: Such a debilitating thing to watch your children go through.
Speaker 6: She's going through somewhich is hell right now. Teenage times
Speaker 6: are tough for all girls and boys, and for a
Speaker 6: teenager where you feel lonely anyway, but especially at the
Speaker 6: age she's that when she should be, you know, her
Speaker 6: hearts should be opening to the wonder of who she
Speaker 6: is and finding a way in the world. It's mate,
Speaker 6: it's nothing but heartbreaking.
Speaker 14: She's also having to go a great deal of clinical
Speaker 14: psychology sessions. We've also just started doing holistic counseling in
Speaker 14: regards to roving steps she can take to back.

Speaker 6: money worries. And to get your daughter help, I know
Speaker 6: that it takes money and a lot of resources, and
Speaker 6: that might be a time when you're struggling to do.
Speaker 14: That's really just to prioritizing her well being. You're trying
Speaker 14: to focus all your resources towards making sure she can
Speaker 14: get through these times. It's really hardva Christ because as
Speaker 14: a father, you feel like a failure asking for help,
Speaker 14: and you should You shouldn't.
Speaker 5: No, you shouldn't because how are you meant to cope
Speaker 5: with this? Right? You're trying to make a really tough
Speaker 5: situation the best you can. You're just trying to get
Speaker 5: help for her.
Speaker 14: Yeah, just like just like living in a massive dark over.
Speaker 5: It's like whenever we have a tough time in life,
Speaker 5: like a really tough time at you're having right now,
Speaker 5: you lose that thing that's the most important thing is

Speaker 5: starts to gym, that's a scary place for you and
Speaker 5: your wife to be in, in your family.
Speaker 14: Yeah, Maie, definitely is. And like I said, it was,
Speaker 14: that's on the up chance I caught you to talking
Speaker 14: about your book.
Speaker 6: That's incredible. Now, Matthew, listen what you've got to do
Speaker 6: right now? This is really really important. Okay, you've got
Speaker 6: to give yourself credit for what you have done. Okay,
Speaker 6: you're trying to get help, all right, You're doing all
Speaker 6: you can. You're doing a lot. You are doing a lot.
Speaker 6: So please, for all that you felt you haven't been
Speaker 6: able to do, and all that you don't think you
Speaker 6: can do, you've done the most important thing you've got.
Speaker 6: You've got your daughter help and you made her feel
Speaker 6: seen and hearn that is that's the most important thing
Speaker 6: that we can do as a parent, you can do
Speaker 6: as a dad.
Speaker 14: You do feel alone, but then you think of stories
Speaker 14: of your daughters. Like I said to day by day,
Speaker 14: pay by day opposition, and just thank you for the
Speaker 14: reassurance and the fact that it is okay to feel
Speaker 14: said and to have areas of self doubt and and
Speaker 14: it's actually okay to quiet and break down to your
Speaker 14: partner or to best brain.
Speaker 12: Or.
Speaker 14: Even a letter to a complete stranger, which is what
Speaker 14: I did to you.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 6: But the thing is, when you heard what happened to me, Matthew,
Speaker 6: I bet that that made you feel not like a stranger,
Speaker 6: and when we're chatting now, you're not strange. I know
Speaker 6: you've been in my own life. I know what it's
Speaker 6: like to feel the kind of despair you know. I
Speaker 6: don't know your story, but I can feel it. And
Speaker 6: you know you should be really proud mate, for what
Speaker 6: you've done. It takes so much courage that most of
Speaker 6: us aren't able to summon so many people listening right
Speaker 6: now here. We're really feeling this, you know. Thank you
Speaker 6: for even trusting me and sharing this. Honestly, it's you know,
Speaker 6: it's taking a lot for you to do this. What
Speaker 6: I'd like to do right is I don't want to
Speaker 6: ask you what the financial situation is. I think we
Speaker 6: could take a break and let's ask chat now off
Speaker 6: air about if you're happy to share it you know
Speaker 6: where you are with it and what we might be
Speaker 6: able to do to how okay? Does that sound fair?

Speaker 6: because you've got You've got through what often feels like
Speaker 6: the biggest step sometimes isn't it as telling somebody else honestly,
Speaker 6: it does. Is that first steps want to leap for mankind,
Speaker 6: isn't It feels impossible? And then you do it and heze,
Speaker 6: all right, actually come through it. I'm alive. I'm all right.
Speaker 14: Thank you so much.
Speaker 6: Hey, the pleasure is all mine. Okay, let's take a
Speaker 6: break and then we'll see where we are. Okay, but Matthew,
Speaker 6: thank you.
Speaker 14: Okay, thanks for our Christian Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 6: Thanks for letting Matthew share his story. Lots of you
Speaker 6: calling in at the moment want to offer support, and
Speaker 6: you don't have to come on air. Maybe if that's
Speaker 6: touched at someonewhere and it's very close for you, If
Speaker 6: you know, some call in say Matthew with you or
Speaker 6: share your story. You can email if it's easier, Christian
Speaker 6: at Christian O'Connell dot com dot au, and you can
Speaker 6: also give us a call nine four one four one
Speaker 6: O four three. I really, you know, I don't think
Speaker 6: Matthew realizes just how well he spoke from a really
Speaker 6: painful situation. It's hard for any of us to talk
Speaker 6: about that kind of stuff. Happened to me a couple
Speaker 6: of weeks ago, and I talked for a.
Speaker 5: Living, but he did an amazing job doing that.
Speaker 6: It was really quite remarkable and I really hope it
Speaker 6: has helped some of you who are there, been there
Speaker 6: or anyway, let's get showon on right now.
Speaker 5: Good one as Sharon, Hi, how are you? I'm good, Sharon.
Speaker 5: I hope you well this morning.
Speaker 6: I haven't hearing Matthew's story is and upset you too much,
Speaker 6: But it was just stuvey to hear, you know, what's
Speaker 6: going on for so many people.
Speaker 15: Oh, it was absolutely brilliant to hear it from the
Speaker 15: point of view that there's a parent out there supporting
Speaker 15: their child through this. During my teenage years, it was
Speaker 15: there was still a lot of a lot more stigma
Speaker 15: than what there was today, so my parents didn't really
Speaker 15: support me, so it was really hard for me to
Speaker 15: get through teenage years. I still suffer today. And I
Speaker 15: just wanted to reiterate that he needs to look after
Speaker 15: himself as well. It's not he's great that he's looking
Speaker 15: after his family and his child, but if he doesn't
Speaker 15: look after himself, then he might and find himself falling
Speaker 15: down that rabbit hole and it's a horrible place to be.
Speaker 15: But I was just I was just saying that the
Speaker 15: way that I get through each day, particularly in my lows,
Speaker 15: is my mantraites make one person that particularly a stranger,
Speaker 15: laugh or smile a day.
Speaker 5: Oh it's lovely, shall one every thing to do?
Speaker 15: It just helps me know that there's a light at
Speaker 15: the end of the tunnel. Is there is a way
Speaker 15: back up.
Speaker 6: Just Matthew here and you say that, you know, given
Speaker 6: credit for what a great daddy is because you know
Speaker 6: his daughter will be okay because she's got a dad
Speaker 6: like Matthew and obviously an amazing mum as well. That no,
Speaker 6: you know, they're obviously talking about it, and so that
Speaker 6: will help them tremendously. But I think Matthew doesn't give
Speaker 6: himself enough credit for what he is doing, which is
Speaker 6: what we know he's not really helps Shanon, thank you
Speaker 6: for giving us a god and I hope you're okay.
Speaker 15: Thank you very much.
Speaker 2: Thank you, Bye, Christian, Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 6: Thank you very much, all the course, Thank you very much,
Speaker 6: all the emails. Just to reassure you Matthew is okay,
Speaker 6: he's loving here.
Speaker 5: All the support.
Speaker 6: It feels better just being able to say exactly what's
Speaker 6: been going on, So thank you for giving him that.
Speaker 6: We're going to forward on all the messages as well.
Speaker 6: Ashley's on the line. Good morning Ashley, Good morning Christian.
Speaker 16: How are you going?
Speaker 6: Oh good Ashley. I hope you well this morning. So
Speaker 6: did you hear Matthew's story earlier?
Speaker 16: Yeah, I was striving to work and it really resonated
Speaker 16: with me and I felt it quite strongly because I
Speaker 16: know exactly how him and his daughter feel. It was
Speaker 16: that was exactly me when I was a teenager, and
Speaker 16: I just wanted to provide that, you know, that that
Speaker 16: picture of hope because you know, it's been ten years
Speaker 16: for me and since I've gone through my teenage years.
Speaker 16: And as I was driving to work, you know, a
Speaker 16: job that I love, married to a wonderful man, with
Speaker 16: pregnant with our first child, I just wanted to show that,
Speaker 16: you know, there is a light at the end of
Speaker 16: the tunnel, and you know they'll come through this difficult
Speaker 16: journey together and they'll be happier and stronger for it.
Speaker 16: But she'll get there and it'll all be okay.
Speaker 6: Do you know what this is about the most important
Speaker 6: thing that they can hear right now? You imagine Matthew's
Speaker 6: daughter hear and you say that you know, and like
Speaker 6: I said, that's that getting those glimpses of hope and
Speaker 6: hanging on to hope. It's sometimes really hard and right
Speaker 6: now they can't hear enough of that new saying where
Speaker 6: you were you know, and it's really heard to issues
Speaker 6: and some people have it harder than they should. But
Speaker 6: now hearing you, So when's you're first born jew you're
Speaker 6: pregnant now that that's amazing.
Speaker 2: Congratulations you in November.
Speaker 16: So yeah, it's it doesn't it seems too good to
Speaker 16: be true thinking about like you know, where you've been
Speaker 16: and where you can come from, but it does happen
