Okay, we're going to 0:02:29.360 --> 0:02:32.320 get serious stuff like that. I got to hear the news, guys. Actually, 0:02:32.600 --> 0:02:35.119 I can't all be funny stuff like you guys. I've 0:02:35.120 --> 0:02:35.839 a serious job. 0:02:36.360 --> 0:02:39.200 The Christian O'Connell show podcast. 0:02:39.600 --> 0:02:42.040 I went to see the new Jason Stather movie. Yessay. 0:02:42.080 --> 0:02:45.120 I love Staitha movies, not one of his better ones, 0:02:45.560 --> 0:02:48.160 working Man. If I had watched it on TV, I 0:02:48.160 --> 0:02:49.880 would have just paused it halfway through and go I 0:02:49.960 --> 0:02:52.239 watched The Wrestler for another night because you've come out 0:02:52.680 --> 0:02:54.720 that was gold class, so you still Because I wanted 0:02:54.720 --> 0:02:57.880 to treat myself, I went alone. And here's the situation. 0:02:58.280 --> 0:03:01.480 There was only me and another in gold Class. 0:03:01.480 --> 0:03:03.040 I'm surprised anybody else. 0:03:03.080 --> 0:03:06.680 But then even showing out of it, his movies are huge. 0:03:07.240 --> 0:03:09.320 Shoe it was huge at the box office. 0:03:11.080 --> 0:03:14.480 Me and a yest state of movies delivered. You know 0:03:14.520 --> 0:03:17.120 what you're going to get. This one was written by 0:03:17.240 --> 0:03:20.240 Sylvester Stone. Even Stone realizes I can't pull this kind 0:03:20.240 --> 0:03:24.080 of action off anymore. The new gen is Statham. Statham 0:03:24.440 --> 0:03:26.520 is in his own kind of category of movie making 0:03:26.560 --> 0:03:30.000 where he doesn't make any effort to either do his 0:03:30.400 --> 0:03:34.080 you know, native British accent or try an American one. 0:03:34.440 --> 0:03:37.400 In this movie, he said he was a fort British 0:03:37.440 --> 0:03:41.920 Marine commando, but then also keeps herself as American to 0:03:42.040 --> 0:03:45.000 the movie and the accent is nowhere, which is like 0:03:45.040 --> 0:03:47.480 he goes, well, I'm just I speak my own language, 0:03:47.480 --> 0:03:49.000 which is Statham. 0:03:49.040 --> 0:03:51.680 Maybe that dialogue was deliberate so that if anyone said 0:03:51.720 --> 0:03:53.080 are you British or are you American? 0:03:53.280 --> 0:03:55.360 On both you can't pay me down. 0:03:55.400 --> 0:03:59.840 And also it's just like Staithan movies. Nothing you can't 0:04:00.080 --> 0:04:01.920 get upset, like, oh, that wouldn't happen in real life, 0:04:01.960 --> 0:04:05.120 because none of it is believable. Every state of the movie, 0:04:05.240 --> 0:04:08.840 he's either an xcia X something who is trying to 0:04:08.880 --> 0:04:11.440 make good of a different kind of monk like life. 0:04:11.640 --> 0:04:14.600 Something happens he here's a girl being kidnapped out of 0:04:14.680 --> 0:04:17.640 scene and he then reluctantly has to pick up the 0:04:17.680 --> 0:04:21.400 guns and start smashing people in the face. Yesterday there 0:04:21.480 --> 0:04:24.960 was like there was that scene where it's like, pleas, please, 0:04:25.040 --> 0:04:28.200 can you rescue our daughter. I'm a change man, I 0:04:28.200 --> 0:04:30.720 don't know people anymore, and you're thinking he's got to 0:04:30.760 --> 0:04:33.040 be kidding roight, because there's another two hours on this. 0:04:33.360 --> 0:04:35.920 It can't be him living this boring monk like life. 0:04:36.160 --> 0:04:38.680 Sure enough, he comes back, he gets he rescues anyway, 0:04:38.920 --> 0:04:41.320 So it's an empty gold class, right, It's just me 0:04:41.520 --> 0:04:44.480 another guy. I get there first, I sit down, right. 0:04:44.720 --> 0:04:46.600 I'm thinking that maybe because when I booked it earlier, 0:04:46.640 --> 0:04:49.400 there was just like some other guy. He must be 0:04:49.400 --> 0:04:51.919 sitting somewhere else, you know, gold class. They're like, you know, 0:04:51.920 --> 0:04:52.719 like him too, Zion. 0:04:52.800 --> 0:04:54.880 Yeah, you're in couples, Yeah, he says, next to. 0:04:54.920 --> 0:04:55.400 My Oh. 0:04:56.920 --> 0:04:57.120 What? 0:04:58.320 --> 0:04:59.839 And then right the lights go out? 0:05:00.240 --> 0:05:01.599 Are you sharing a table between? 0:05:01.680 --> 0:05:01.960 Yes? 0:05:02.920 --> 0:05:05.800 Now, I'm like, you's going to be kidding me? Right, 0:05:05.960 --> 0:05:08.160 I am now trapped because I don't want to appear 0:05:08.400 --> 0:05:12.239 rude by just moving myself because this me and him, 0:05:12.760 --> 0:05:14.919 my moving myself over to another thing. 0:05:14.839 --> 0:05:17.240 To watch it as he said hello, yeah. 0:05:16.960 --> 0:05:18.880 We both did this awkward light and then a couple 0:05:18.920 --> 0:05:21.720 of times during the movie, my hand would touch his plate. 0:05:22.520 --> 0:05:26.560 There you go. It's just the two of us sharing 0:05:27.040 --> 0:05:31.640 unnecessarily intimate moment together, watching her very fine, and then 0:05:31.640 --> 0:05:37.159 he reclined his bed fully. I couldn't fully RelA looks. 0:05:37.000 --> 0:05:43.080 Like the Christian O'Connell show podcast. 0:05:43.160 --> 0:05:45.080 Patty, how's your daughter already getting on this week? 0:05:46.000 --> 0:05:48.719 Well, she finishes school tomorrow for the term. Can you 0:05:48.760 --> 0:05:51.279 believe they've got three weeks off? Which is crazy? 0:05:51.279 --> 0:05:53.920 Oh my god, that is ridiculous. You've only just got 0:05:53.920 --> 0:05:57.440 the house back and the control after that long Christmas summer. 0:05:57.160 --> 0:05:59.960 Break, and then they're back a day and then they're 0:06:00.080 --> 0:06:02.960 off for antac day long weekends. Like trying to get 0:06:02.960 --> 0:06:05.279 your head around it and trying to catch up with 0:06:05.839 --> 0:06:08.479 the progress of the year kind of makes your sort 0:06:08.480 --> 0:06:08.840 of brain. 0:06:09.920 --> 0:06:11.839 When I went to school, we always like started on 0:06:11.839 --> 0:06:13.760 a Monday, finish for a Friday. Every time you tell 0:06:13.839 --> 0:06:15.760 us about Audise school, it's always like, and then come 0:06:15.800 --> 0:06:17.440 back for Friday afternoon. 0:06:17.920 --> 0:06:19.360 Wednesday part time school deck. 0:06:19.560 --> 0:06:21.440 So have you You've got to have stuff planned for 0:06:21.480 --> 0:06:21.960 three weeks. 0:06:22.040 --> 0:06:24.240 I haven't even thought. Don't even Oh, I haven't even 0:06:24.240 --> 0:06:26.960 thought about it. So that she's not constantly on the phone, 0:06:27.040 --> 0:06:29.400 you know, Like that's the biggest challenge. It's like, let's 0:06:29.800 --> 0:06:31.800 go for a walk, let's do stuff. You do have 0:06:31.839 --> 0:06:34.240 to organize activities or they will be constantly. 0:06:34.320 --> 0:06:35.920 Do you do think we instance that the girls have 0:06:36.040 --> 0:06:38.000 this thing where I had the code for it and 0:06:38.080 --> 0:06:39.919 sea of my most Sarah, but I was in charge 0:06:39.960 --> 0:06:42.599 of it. Where they actually because you're paying for the 0:06:42.640 --> 0:06:46.520 bill is you can control how much they use their apps. 0:06:46.680 --> 0:06:48.599 You can set like a window like two hours a 0:06:48.680 --> 0:06:51.000 day and that they have to message you and ask 0:06:51.080 --> 0:06:53.359 you for extra time. It just locks the phone up. 0:06:53.440 --> 0:06:55.480 They can still use it as a phone, but they 0:06:55.520 --> 0:06:58.680 can't go on Instagram or mainly it's it's already serious 0:06:58.720 --> 0:06:59.960 into Snapchat because it's more. 0:07:00.040 --> 0:07:01.839 It's all about the snapchat. 0:07:01.880 --> 0:07:03.400 It's all about the snacks, all. 0:07:03.279 --> 0:07:06.919 About the snacks. But she's funny, you know, because you 0:07:06.960 --> 0:07:09.120 can never fool a mother. I was sitting at the 0:07:09.520 --> 0:07:11.960 dining table last night, just on the laptop, had my 0:07:12.200 --> 0:07:15.480 back to the pantry, and I heard these little sort 0:07:15.520 --> 0:07:18.360 of footsteps and I thought it was like five thirty. 0:07:18.480 --> 0:07:21.520 Dinner was on, and I've said to her, please don't 0:07:21.560 --> 0:07:23.520 eat anything. Dinner is going to be on the table 0:07:23.520 --> 0:07:24.280 in half an hour. 0:07:24.480 --> 0:07:27.080 The number one thing my mother said to us every day, 0:07:27.240 --> 0:07:27.880 you're ruin. 0:07:30.640 --> 0:07:34.520 A delicious meal was coming. Just have a nice glass 0:07:34.560 --> 0:07:38.120 of water. I still say that to my kids. I'm 0:07:38.280 --> 0:07:40.600 terrible though, even if a meal is five minutes away. 0:07:40.720 --> 0:07:42.480 I still you know, when you want something right now, 0:07:42.920 --> 0:07:45.400 or go and have a snack or something. I hide 0:07:45.400 --> 0:07:48.320 sometimes in the pantry, my wife algoing, I could see 0:07:48.360 --> 0:07:51.240 you in there. I was just looking for something. 0:07:52.440 --> 0:07:54.560 But mothers have eyes in the back of their heads. 0:07:54.360 --> 0:07:58.560 Because that's yeah, in the back of my head. 0:07:58.640 --> 0:08:00.840 My mummy senses would go off, and I said, I 0:08:01.320 --> 0:08:03.240 can see you there. I'm not looking at you, but 0:08:03.320 --> 0:08:05.160 I can see you there, and you can get your 0:08:05.200 --> 0:08:06.920 hand off that pack of chips. 0:08:06.840 --> 0:08:08.760 Because dinner, terrified dinner. 0:08:08.760 --> 0:08:10.520 It is in half an hour. She's like, how do 0:08:10.640 --> 0:08:13.600 you know you're not even looking at me? It's mother's instinct. 0:08:14.080 --> 0:08:16.240 Christian Color Show podcast. 0:08:16.840 --> 0:08:18.560 How many times you reckon? You pick up your phones 0:08:18.600 --> 0:08:22.320 during the day just to randomly google whatever thought has 0:08:22.600 --> 0:08:25.160 popped up in your head? So many times I reckon 0:08:25.200 --> 0:08:27.120 it's twenty or thirty times a day easily. 0:08:27.160 --> 0:08:31.720 I can't leave anything known anymore. You can't because now 0:08:31.760 --> 0:08:33.360 we know we can get the answer to it. So 0:08:33.800 --> 0:08:35.800 we never just ponder things and it will come to 0:08:35.880 --> 0:08:36.480 us eventually. 0:08:36.559 --> 0:08:38.920 It's a TV show between me and my wife because 0:08:38.920 --> 0:08:42.080 my wife has won those minds. Once something comes bubbling up, 0:08:42.640 --> 0:08:44.280 I can go, oh, I'll have a look at that. 0:08:44.360 --> 0:08:46.520 After the show. She go, no, no, no, I need 0:08:46.559 --> 0:08:48.760 to know right now. What have we seen that guy 0:08:48.760 --> 0:08:51.440 in before? Where it doesn't actually doesn't matter because he's 0:08:51.440 --> 0:08:54.600 an actor, so thank god he is. He's providing for 0:08:54.600 --> 0:08:56.840 his family and then you go, I've gotta pause it now, 0:08:56.920 --> 0:09:01.079 and she's like, Siri, Siri, Actually I knew it. Chris, 0:09:01.120 --> 0:09:03.000 he was the bad No, he was a good guy. 0:09:03.040 --> 0:09:05.720 That it made you think he was the bad guy, 0:09:05.760 --> 0:09:07.120 but in the end he was a good guy that 0:09:07.200 --> 0:09:07.800 saved the day. 0:09:08.000 --> 0:09:10.880 I do that with actors, but also where the location 0:09:11.080 --> 0:09:14.720 is film, and also if it's some kind of period piece, 0:09:14.760 --> 0:09:16.080 I could said in the eighties. 0:09:15.760 --> 0:09:19.320 Like did they really already have as in nineteen eighty. 0:09:19.080 --> 0:09:22.920 Two they did. It's because we've got all information available. 0:09:23.160 --> 0:09:26.240 Twenty four to seven was years ago before smartphones. We 0:09:26.320 --> 0:09:28.439 didn't have any. You never would have thought because you'd 0:09:28.520 --> 0:09:31.760 have to drive to your local library to look. Yes, 0:09:31.880 --> 0:09:34.720 get the micro fee, shall get some research papers on it. 0:09:34.800 --> 0:09:38.439 So the other day I'm watching Rory Sloan on Channel 0:09:38.520 --> 0:09:41.840 i's Footy Classified, who's been I think a great addition 0:09:42.280 --> 0:09:44.679 this hit this season. Actually he's great, And he was 0:09:44.720 --> 0:09:47.280 started talking about something I'd never heard of before called 0:09:47.440 --> 0:09:48.880 power stances. 0:09:49.000 --> 0:09:51.120 Brownie used to rip us because of our slow starts, 0:09:51.120 --> 0:09:52.880 and we spoke about as a footy club, and we 0:09:52.920 --> 0:09:55.040 came up with the pale stance, Brownie, and you've ripped 0:09:55.120 --> 0:09:57.760 us for this the whole season we started slowly, so 0:09:57.920 --> 0:10:00.360 Brisbane may want to adopt this. The pals chance we 0:10:00.400 --> 0:10:03.120 did all through the finals campaign. Start against the Giants, 0:10:03.360 --> 0:10:05.440 smoke them in the first quarter, start against your long 0:10:05.520 --> 0:10:08.360 prelim smoked them and then now start in the Grand 0:10:08.360 --> 0:10:11.120 Final was pretty good too. So there's a certain theory 0:10:11.160 --> 0:10:14.800 around cortisol levels at the what levels, right, quartisol levels, 0:10:14.840 --> 0:10:16.080 it's like adrenaline level. 0:10:16.640 --> 0:10:18.959 I was about to say, so, of course I'm watching that. 0:10:19.120 --> 0:10:21.200 I have to get my phone out and google what 0:10:21.600 --> 0:10:24.640 are power poses? And then I'll end up watching this 0:10:25.240 --> 0:10:28.920 Ted talk my human behavioral psychologist called Amy cud I 0:10:28.920 --> 0:10:31.040 didn't realize it's a big, well known Ted talk with 0:10:31.120 --> 0:10:35.000 like fifty million views. It's about your body language, boosting 0:10:35.080 --> 0:10:38.880 testosterone levels and lowering quartsole which is a stress response. 0:10:38.960 --> 0:10:40.959 So remind me what Adelaide used to do? Was it 0:10:41.200 --> 0:10:42.760 did they say that's stiff and upright? 0:10:43.840 --> 0:10:45.680 Do you remember the power poses they start to do. 0:10:45.960 --> 0:10:48.360 It became famous because it was quite embarrassing, like it 0:10:48.400 --> 0:10:51.000 looked ridiculous, that's stiff. 0:10:52.160 --> 0:10:58.120 It was kind of like it's the he he man 0:10:58.240 --> 0:11:02.040 it tomorrow night before the game, Please power post instead 0:11:02.080 --> 0:11:04.400 of the pussy post you did over the weekend. We 0:11:04.440 --> 0:11:07.680 need the power posts. So again, because there's phone's there, 0:11:07.800 --> 0:11:10.600 I'm like, ten twenty minutes, I'm now not watching TV anymore. 0:11:10.840 --> 0:11:14.240 I'm going down wormholes. And then I found out there 0:11:14.240 --> 0:11:17.160 are six different power poses you can do in the tronoa. 0:11:17.280 --> 0:11:20.359 I'm not doing the Superman one before the show. That's ludicrous. 0:11:20.520 --> 0:11:24.239 I might do the Starfish one and see how that goes. Participating. 0:11:24.280 --> 0:11:26.199 What have you been googling on your phone? 0:11:27.080 --> 0:11:30.720 How many books John Grisham has? Because my dad's obsessed 0:11:30.720 --> 0:11:32.600 with him, and I was like, okay, I'll just find 0:11:32.600 --> 0:11:34.160 out how many he has. I might get him a 0:11:34.160 --> 0:11:35.040 couple of extra books. 0:11:35.160 --> 0:11:37.199 So many got made into great movies where there was 0:11:37.200 --> 0:11:39.160 some one on the TV of the day, Crimson Tide 0:11:39.160 --> 0:11:41.680 with Gene Hackman and Denzel Washington, which is great movies. 0:11:41.720 --> 0:11:43.160 John Grisham the firm as well. 0:11:43.280 --> 0:11:46.720 Is he Pelican Brief, yes, Pelican Brief, yes, But you 0:11:46.800 --> 0:11:49.640 know what he has over fifty number one best sellers? 0:11:49.760 --> 0:11:52.520 What ind and there's unknown how many. 0:11:52.520 --> 0:11:55.600 Actual that guy must before he goes that typewriter. He's 0:11:55.600 --> 0:11:57.880 power posing hundred percent. 0:11:58.920 --> 0:12:00.320 John Grisham is the Firm as well. 0:12:00.320 --> 0:12:03.120 The Firm is it's a great one. Now have you 0:12:03.160 --> 0:12:06.320 seen the movies that the one would talk Tom Cruise 0:12:06.360 --> 0:12:08.959 in the movie. Yes? Who else is in the Firm? 0:12:09.600 --> 0:12:09.800 Oh? 0:12:10.559 --> 0:12:19.120 Someone go to Google right now? Triple Horn, Yeah, Triple Yes, and. 0:12:19.040 --> 0:12:20.440 Holy Hunter and Jane Hackmen. 0:12:21.080 --> 0:12:24.360 Yes, Gene Hackman was in quite a few John Grishamer's 0:12:24.360 --> 0:12:26.599 movies as well. He was brilliant. And The Firm is 0:12:26.640 --> 0:12:27.760 a great book, isn't it. 0:12:27.920 --> 0:12:31.960 He's fifty over fifty. There is an unknown amount. I've 0:12:32.000 --> 0:12:33.760 tried looking everywhere on Google. 0:12:33.880 --> 0:12:37.000 There's not an unknown somebody knows he would. 0:12:37.240 --> 0:12:41.840 Yeah, I mean Google must know. 0:12:42.280 --> 0:12:43.840 Scientists can't figure it out. 0:12:44.040 --> 0:12:46.360 You don't go into a bookshop and there's just a 0:12:46.480 --> 0:12:49.760 random amount of books. How does that compare with Stephen King? 0:12:49.760 --> 0:12:52.679 And Stephen King had more number one bestallers than Grisham? 0:12:52.880 --> 0:12:54.120 Could they have an author. 0:12:53.840 --> 0:12:56.240 Of It's like you know how computer doesn't know all 0:12:56.280 --> 0:12:59.000 the numbers of pie, like to a million digits. 0:12:59.200 --> 0:13:03.199 He doesn't know all the John GRISHO it's fifty one recurring. 0:13:05.520 --> 0:13:07.960 Over sixty five novels. Stephen King, so yes, he has 0:13:07.960 --> 0:13:12.719 beaten him, But we just don't know how many we're 0:13:12.960 --> 0:13:14.320 going to Google. 0:13:14.559 --> 0:13:17.400 Google just shrugs, it went, I don't know, but it's 0:13:17.400 --> 0:13:17.679 a lot. 0:13:18.760 --> 0:13:22.600 Christian O'Connell Show Go one podcast. 0:13:22.360 --> 0:13:24.200 Going around, The team opens ups to about the things 0:13:24.240 --> 0:13:26.960 we've been googling in the last twenty four hours. Participating 0:13:27.080 --> 0:13:30.439 was googling how many books as John Grisham written? So 0:13:31.000 --> 0:13:33.640 your research has found out over fifty. 0:13:33.720 --> 0:13:39.480 Over fifty yes, fifty one consecutive number one best sellers. 0:13:39.559 --> 0:13:42.760 If that's true, that is incredible record. 0:13:42.640 --> 0:13:48.360 Sang yes, but sang the amount that he's actually done unknown. 0:13:48.880 --> 0:13:52.000 But how can that be because obviously, like publishing houses 0:13:52.040 --> 0:13:54.160 will have the contracts for each one that he's been given, 0:13:54.200 --> 0:13:57.000 and surely he would know because he'd had copies of 0:13:57.040 --> 0:13:58.840 all his books at home. Has anyone ever thought to 0:13:58.880 --> 0:14:01.400 ask John grish an interview? So how many books have 0:14:01.440 --> 0:14:01.800 you written? 0:14:01.960 --> 0:14:04.520 I think someone needs to because Google will not give 0:14:04.520 --> 0:14:05.360 me the bloody answer. 0:14:05.880 --> 0:14:09.200 Isn't there database somewhere where you just passed John Grisham 0:14:09.200 --> 0:14:10.800 and it tells you how many titles he has. 0:14:10.920 --> 0:14:14.680 I went onto his website, his official website, counted them out, 0:14:14.760 --> 0:14:18.200 and there's fifty five on the website, by. 0:14:18.080 --> 0:14:19.040 Hand, by hand. 0:14:19.720 --> 0:14:22.880 I appreciate the high level of research there. I've asked 0:14:22.880 --> 0:14:27.520 the latest version, version four of chat GPT House of 0:14:27.560 --> 0:14:32.000 April twenty twenty five. John Grisham has authored over fifty books. 0:14:32.240 --> 0:14:34.960 Even the smartest language learning model in the world. Is 0:14:34.960 --> 0:14:37.240 this going over fifty? It doesn't. Why is it such 0:14:37.240 --> 0:14:37.840 a mystery? 0:14:37.920 --> 0:14:39.800 I know it's searched the whole world Wide Web and 0:14:39.920 --> 0:14:41.960 can't even tell us no idea. 0:14:42.600 --> 0:14:45.360 It's like the question they put up on the blackboard 0:14:45.360 --> 0:14:47.400 in good Will hunting that nobody can get, but Matt 0:14:47.440 --> 0:14:49.920 Damien comes along as the janitor and he can answer. 0:14:50.080 --> 0:14:51.360 Yes, it's crazy. 0:14:51.480 --> 0:14:53.640 I think chat GPT couldn't do what you could do. 0:14:53.840 --> 0:14:55.880 Just go to his website and count the many books. 0:14:56.240 --> 0:14:58.080 You're not as smart as you thought chat GPT. 0:14:59.000 --> 0:15:00.480 That's true, that's true. 0:15:00.760 --> 0:15:02.520 But something else I did find out while I was 0:15:02.520 --> 0:15:06.920 searching more things. He was the inspiration for the adaptation 0:15:07.280 --> 0:15:07.840 Christmas with. 0:15:07.880 --> 0:15:10.360 The Cranks, the movie What Do You Mean? 0:15:10.640 --> 0:15:12.440 So he wrote a book in two thousand and one 0:15:12.480 --> 0:15:15.840 called Skipping Christmas, and then they turned that into the 0:15:15.880 --> 0:15:17.200 movie Christmas with the Cranks. 0:15:17.760 --> 0:15:20.680 Really, because all of his other films are crime. 0:15:20.920 --> 0:15:23.320 They're all crime fillers, aren't they? And then there's one 0:15:23.400 --> 0:15:28.120 random Christmas with the Cranks. He obviously really didn't like 0:15:28.200 --> 0:15:31.120 that kind of fan I'm never doing that. Screw that. 0:15:31.480 --> 0:15:34.600 Now it's back to more crime fillers, and it's always 0:15:34.680 --> 0:15:38.480 shady lawyers. Taking mob Money is about every third book, 0:15:38.560 --> 0:15:39.520 it's always the mob. 0:15:39.720 --> 0:15:43.440 So his genre is actual legal thrillers. He was originally 0:15:43.480 --> 0:15:43.920 a lawyer. 0:15:44.200 --> 0:15:47.160 So are you now working for him? Do you know 0:15:47.240 --> 0:15:48.920 more about John Grisham than you do me? 0:15:52.040 --> 0:15:55.640 Chs actually research about the show. 0:15:56.320 --> 0:15:58.560 The show other than the Life and Times of the 0:15:58.560 --> 0:15:59.760 Great John Grisham. 0:16:00.160 --> 0:16:02.960 The Christian O'Connell Show podcast. 0:16:03.600 --> 0:16:07.000 Your number one John Grisham station this weekend are winning 0:16:07.080 --> 0:16:09.720 John Grisham Weekend. I'd actually be very happy with that. 0:16:10.040 --> 0:16:12.800 When his entire back catalog, we just don't know what 0:16:12.840 --> 0:16:16.680 the entire back catalog is. Be listening Saturday afternoon to 0:16:16.760 --> 0:16:20.000 Jason Statham this week in authoring. I want to talk 0:16:20.040 --> 0:16:21.480 to you on the next half an hour about Korea 0:16:21.560 --> 0:16:24.000 one eighties. I've got lovely text on one of you yesterday. 0:16:24.560 --> 0:16:27.720 Im Patsy's news yesterday was this. I think you had 0:16:27.760 --> 0:16:31.080 some stats packs about people who later on their life 0:16:31.080 --> 0:16:34.320 really regret that they feel trapped in the jobs that 0:16:34.320 --> 0:16:36.080 they kind of didn't think they'd be doing for the 0:16:36.120 --> 0:16:39.080 rest of their lives, and they wish they could have 0:16:39.120 --> 0:16:39.640 gone back. 0:16:39.880 --> 0:16:42.720 About a fifty people or something, but when they were surveyed, 0:16:42.760 --> 0:16:44.880 about a fifth thought, nah, I wish I hadn't have 0:16:44.880 --> 0:16:47.320 done this, and it's too late to change now once 0:16:47.360 --> 0:16:48.240 they're in their fifties. 0:16:48.280 --> 0:16:51.400 And then Trish said that she's in her sixties and 0:16:51.440 --> 0:16:53.560 that's not true. She did a career one eighty where 0:16:53.600 --> 0:16:56.040 she was a cleaner and she went back and retrained 0:16:56.040 --> 0:16:58.760 and she's now a teacher's aid and has never been happy, 0:16:58.800 --> 0:17:00.920 and she's in her sixties. So I'd love to hear 0:17:00.960 --> 0:17:02.560 from people during the next half an hour. It might 0:17:02.600 --> 0:17:05.760 motivate someone today. But actually it's never too late, and 0:17:05.960 --> 0:17:07.800 there are so many people we've got these really amazing 0:17:07.800 --> 0:17:10.680 stories about career one eighties. There's a friend of mine 0:17:10.680 --> 0:17:13.600 who was my first mentor in radio and one of 0:17:13.600 --> 0:17:16.640 the best radio presenters there's ever been, called Tony, and 0:17:16.800 --> 0:17:18.719 he used to be He used to have a massive 0:17:18.800 --> 0:17:21.840 radio show in the UK in a city called Newcastle. 0:17:21.920 --> 0:17:25.359 Newcastle is a big, very very well known and loved 0:17:25.640 --> 0:17:28.520 city in the north of England. Tony's Breakfast show was 0:17:28.560 --> 0:17:30.440 so big there. You know how the ratings were. It's 0:17:30.480 --> 0:17:32.879 a percentage of how many out of a universe of 0:17:32.920 --> 0:17:35.320 one hundred percent, how many are listening to your radio show. 0:17:35.680 --> 0:17:39.000 Tony Horn for about eight years had fifty seven percent 0:17:39.359 --> 0:17:43.400 of that city listening to him every single morning. Huge, right, 0:17:43.440 --> 0:17:45.760 you know where we are imaginally if you're at fifty 0:17:45.880 --> 0:17:49.919 seven percent. And he literally was the city anyway. He 0:17:50.119 --> 0:17:52.119 did breakfast radio for years and years and years and 0:17:52.240 --> 0:17:54.640 years and then just got burnt out. He is now 0:17:55.200 --> 0:17:58.879 a different person, far happier. He's a postman, right, and 0:17:58.440 --> 0:18:01.359 he still listens to my shows sometimes and give me 0:18:01.440 --> 0:18:04.000 notes and feedback, which I love. My mentor is still 0:18:04.040 --> 0:18:04.400 out there. 0:18:06.280 --> 0:18:10.120 She sweet about whistling up, up and down suburban streets 0:18:10.119 --> 0:18:11.120 listening to the show. 0:18:11.160 --> 0:18:13.760 And no one would know. And he's a post in 0:18:13.800 --> 0:18:16.720 the city that he used to be the main guy. 0:18:17.359 --> 0:18:19.520 It's an incredible story. So, PARSI, do you know anyone 0:18:19.520 --> 0:18:20.160 who's in a career. 0:18:20.880 --> 0:18:23.960 My girlfriend Lennie, who I met in radio. Lenny was 0:18:24.000 --> 0:18:28.119 an absolute news reading legend, so big at Triple M 0:18:28.200 --> 0:18:30.919 in the eighties and had a long radio career, then 0:18:30.960 --> 0:18:35.280 went into pr and has suddenly had a complete change. 0:18:35.400 --> 0:18:38.800 Is now studying to be a funeral director with a 0:18:38.960 --> 0:18:42.679 major group here in Melbourne. So that change of you know, 0:18:42.720 --> 0:18:44.679 I think she just got hern out after COVID. She 0:18:44.720 --> 0:18:47.199 work for the Health Department and that was hard. It 0:18:47.240 --> 0:18:49.760
