1 00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:00,880 Speaker 1: Quest. 2 00:00:00,960 --> 00:00:04,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell Show podcast. 3 00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:07,760 Speaker 3: I think in any relationship where you're married or not, 4 00:00:08,160 --> 00:00:11,680 Speaker 3: you know, sometimes halftime at the end of an AFL game, 5 00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:14,720 Speaker 3: they have the oval and then you see these colour 6 00:00:14,800 --> 00:00:17,840 Speaker 3: zones like a heat mat where you see where the impact. 7 00:00:17,520 --> 00:00:19,840 Speaker 1: Well, where the players got their kids in possessions, that 8 00:00:19,880 --> 00:00:20,240 Speaker 1: sort of thing. 9 00:00:20,320 --> 00:00:23,200 Speaker 3: Yeah, so it's blotches of red on this, these hot zones, 10 00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:25,640 Speaker 3: these heat zones. I think if you had an overview 11 00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:28,360 Speaker 3: of any home, whether you own it or your nty, 12 00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:31,640 Speaker 3: you'll see red zones for you and your partner, whether 13 00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:34,440 Speaker 3: it's the kitchen, the bathroom, the study, whatever it is. 14 00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:37,879 Speaker 3: I think the majority of the arguments we have are 15 00:00:37,960 --> 00:00:41,320 Speaker 3: normally narrowed down to a certain area and always about 16 00:00:41,320 --> 00:00:44,239 Speaker 3: a specific one or two things, and you'll spend the 17 00:00:44,240 --> 00:00:48,080 Speaker 3: rest of your time together recreating this drama. Sometimes I'm 18 00:00:48,080 --> 00:00:49,479 Speaker 3: in a mid of an argument, I'm like, oh, back 19 00:00:49,479 --> 00:00:52,040 Speaker 3: into this one again. You know, it's like a director 20 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:54,600 Speaker 3: in our heads, going this time. Why don't you just 21 00:00:55,120 --> 00:00:58,040 Speaker 3: bring some stuff about five years ago into it, just 22 00:00:58,080 --> 00:01:00,320 Speaker 3: to sort of sprinkle up a bit. Where do you 23 00:01:00,360 --> 00:01:02,240 Speaker 3: think your hot zone is, Patsy, We'll share with the 24 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:03,120 Speaker 3: house and what you are. 25 00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,360 Speaker 2: Going to the love God and I always face off 26 00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,600 Speaker 2: over the bathroom that we share. It's funny because Monday 27 00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,679 Speaker 2: to Friday we don't share it because we're like ships 28 00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:13,399 Speaker 2: in the night. We're at opposite ends of the day. 29 00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:16,760 Speaker 2: So then come the weekend and it's a shared zone 30 00:01:16,800 --> 00:01:19,400 Speaker 2: suddenly again it's like we have to reset boundaries again. 31 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:21,360 Speaker 3: Oh, we do a lot of that the weekend. You're right, 32 00:01:22,520 --> 00:01:23,919 Speaker 3: it's got too much time together. 33 00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 2: So Sunday I went in there Sunday morning after a shower, 34 00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 2: hadn't bothered to fetch a fresh bath mash, and so 35 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:34,720 Speaker 2: after he dried himself, had just laid his towel on 36 00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:38,000 Speaker 2: the floor. And I said that that's a a. 37 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,200 Speaker 3: I used to do that when I was nine at 38 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,160 Speaker 3: the swimming baths. You do that, you put the towel 39 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 3: down and you stand on it and you get changed. 40 00:01:44,240 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 1: It's still all absorbing materials, are you? I have been 41 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:52,480 Speaker 1: known to a used towel is as good as a. 42 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:55,600 Speaker 3: Because are you going to go and wash it afterwards? 43 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:57,120 Speaker 1: So if you throw it in the wash and you 44 00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,200 Speaker 1: will never know that it's back in the towel and 45 00:01:59,200 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 1: you wouldn't to try. 46 00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:03,800 Speaker 3: That's why we have a good old boss. 47 00:02:03,840 --> 00:02:06,480 Speaker 2: It was fresh, it was afresh. We have big, massive 48 00:02:06,560 --> 00:02:11,360 Speaker 2: towels and they take a lot to wash trying. I 49 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:14,280 Speaker 2: just changed those over yesterday. Now it needs to go 50 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,640 Speaker 2: back in the wash and he said, no, it's fine, 51 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 2: and I said, no, it's not.

Everything's got it's. 53 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:25,400 Speaker 3: Got longer fivles, those of like an octopus's tentacles to dry. 54 00:02:25,200 --> 00:02:27,359 Speaker 2: You and massage your feet as you stick out of 55 00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 2: the shower. 56 00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:28,239 Speaker 3: Yeah. 57 00:02:28,320 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, Jack. 58 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:32,160 Speaker 3: So if patsy'sen is in the bathroom and the en suite, 59 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:34,920 Speaker 3: where's your heat zone in? And arguments in the house. 60 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:36,880 Speaker 1: Ours would be you know what, it would be the 61 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 1: front door and coming into the hallway. Because the topic 62 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:42,639 Speaker 1: that we will fight about for the rest of our 63 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 1: lives is I just have a disagreement or different understanding 64 00:02:46,200 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 1: of what it means to be on time getting to 65 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:51,720 Speaker 1: things on time. So even this weekend she came, she 66 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:55,000 Speaker 1: went out to get Cige balls for everybody as like 67 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:57,080 Speaker 1: a healthy breakfast and bring it. As she's bringing it 68 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:58,640 Speaker 1: back into the house, I'm like, we're going to be 69 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:02,920 Speaker 1: late for Gordon swimming listen. No, no, we got twenty minutes, Like, 70 00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 1: but you have to factor in the eating of the 71 00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 1: assie balls and then getting in the car getting there. 72 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 3: I actually said that my wife is a time optimist.
