1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:04,320
Speaker 1: Christ Yeah, welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell's Show podcast.

2
00:00:04,600 --> 00:00:09,080
Speaker 2: Good morning, Patsy, morning Jack, this morning, Wow, and can

3
00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:11,320
Speaker 2: I just say happy show birthday to both of you.

4
00:00:11,400 --> 00:00:15,960
Speaker 2: This show is six years old today. Did you actually

5
00:00:16,040 --> 00:00:18,080
Speaker 2: think at the time when we all started working together,

6
00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:20,560
Speaker 2: and we obviously had never worked before, and I'd actually

7
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:23,320
Speaker 2: never lived in Australia before. Everything was new, new, new

8
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:25,639
Speaker 2: for me and my family. But did you actually think

9
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,040
Speaker 2: it would work and it would go for a while?

10
00:00:28,840 --> 00:00:29,480
Speaker 2: You can be honest.

11
00:00:29,520 --> 00:00:32,519
Speaker 3: No, I was more confident at the very start, so

12
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:34,600
Speaker 3: six years ago today, when we did the first show,

13
00:00:34,680 --> 00:00:36,800
Speaker 3: I was confident that we can make something great. There's

14
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:40,680
Speaker 3: a few weeks in as we started to get the feedback, yeah,

15
00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:42,800
Speaker 3: that I thought, oh, this isn't going to last very yeah.

16
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:45,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, And you didn't actually see the feedback. I saw

17
00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,240
Speaker 2: the feedback feedback, Patsy, What do you think?

18
00:00:48,440 --> 00:00:50,600
Speaker 1: What did I think? I didn't think we'd go this long? No,

19
00:00:50,680 --> 00:00:51,120
Speaker 1: I didn't.

20
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:52,680
Speaker 2: I did have that voe confidence.

21
00:00:53,040 --> 00:00:54,640
Speaker 1: No, I didn't wish one.

22
00:00:54,800 --> 00:00:57,520
Speaker 2: So lucky to were Actually Jack said he was confidence.

23
00:00:57,520 --> 00:00:58,520
Speaker 2: You're saying you didn't think it was.

24
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 1: He said at the start he was. And then when

25
00:01:01,240 --> 00:01:04,800
Speaker 1: the feedback came back, which was quite vitriolic, wasn't it

26
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 1: at the start? What you had to weather it was? Yeah,

27
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,160
Speaker 1: it was bad and we didn't realize how bad it

28
00:01:10,240 --> 00:01:11,480
Speaker 1: was because he didn't share that with this.

29
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:15,240
Speaker 2: But it was mainly from you. I think that's why

30
00:01:15,400 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 2: she made it harder. Was like, I know, it's it's

31
00:01:17,720 --> 00:01:23,520
Speaker 2: actually only from her, all those IP addresses. Yeah, it

32
00:01:23,600 --> 00:01:26,440
Speaker 2: was all it was all from Patsy. And then how

33
00:01:26,480 --> 00:01:28,000
Speaker 2: do you feel now, six years late? Do you think

34
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:30,560
Speaker 2: it's gone quickly? Because my life has gone very quickly

35
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:32,880
Speaker 2: and because other stuff's been going. And I was just

36
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:36,560
Speaker 2: telling Jack it is Lowess, our youngest daughter. It's her

37
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,760
Speaker 2: formal this Friday, and then we put our date in

38
00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 2: the diary for September October for her graduation, and it's

39
00:01:43,840 --> 00:01:47,039
Speaker 2: like that's the last kid in a school system. She'd

40
00:01:47,080 --> 00:01:49,960
Speaker 2: go to university hopefully, but it's still like twenty years

41
00:01:50,000 --> 00:01:50,160
Speaker 2: is not.

42
00:01:50,760 --> 00:01:52,320
Speaker 3: And when you first came here and I first met

43
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:53,760
Speaker 3: your family, she was a twelve year old.

44
00:01:53,800 --> 00:01:55,000
Speaker 1: Ye, yes, she was.

45
00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 2: In November.

46
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,200
Speaker 1: That's what I look at. I remember that launch at

47
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:01,960
Speaker 1: the pub we had and the three girls were sitting

48
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:05,000
Speaker 1: on the couch and Audrey was much much younger. But

49
00:02:05,160 --> 00:02:08,520
Speaker 1: I look at the distance of time that your girls

50
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:08,960
Speaker 1: have grown up.

51
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:10,960
Speaker 2: I think of an eye. Honestly, that's what I mean that.

52
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 1: Audrey and that amount of time, like she'll be flying

53
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,280
Speaker 1: the coop. It's like, wow, it's just too fast.

54
00:02:16,360 --> 00:02:18,919
Speaker 3: Six years is all of high school pretty much so

55
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 3: last week started high school. When she first got here, Yeah,

56
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 3: high school felt like it went on forever. But the

57
00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:26,360
Speaker 3: last six years, the three of us together felt like

58
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:26,919
Speaker 3: it's a blinker.

59
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 2: Well you think about how your your lives are so different,

60
00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:32,079
Speaker 2: your lives, especially yours. Jack. I mean, you're now a

61
00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:33,160
Speaker 2: dad and.

62
00:02:33,120 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 3: I'm taking the Gordy on the weekend. It took him

63
00:02:35,120 --> 00:02:37,720
Speaker 3: to the kinder open day and already watching him walk

64
00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,520
Speaker 3: around like it feels like he just got to the world. Yes,

65
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,520
Speaker 3: and now he's walking around stuff in kindergarten and a school.

66
00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 3: It is going way too fast.

67
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:47,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, the last Searah my wife were talking last night

68
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,640
Speaker 2: when we were like and she was like, isn't the

69
00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,359
Speaker 2: show sit she is tomorrow? I was like, yees, as

70
00:02:52,400 --> 00:02:54,680
Speaker 2: it got it's gone so quickly. It's gone on the

71
00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 2: blink of an eye. It feels at times it feels

72
00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,320
Speaker 2: like it has been a long time living here. Often

73
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:00,959
Speaker 2: people say to me when they find out it's only

74
00:03:00,960 --> 00:03:02,679
Speaker 2: been six years, Like people who've been listening to the

75
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:04,680
Speaker 2: show for a while, they're going, my god, it feels

76
00:03:04,720 --> 00:03:07,680
Speaker 2: like you've been here longer. Now, six years isn't that

77
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:09,840
Speaker 2: long a time, But it also is in other areas.

78
00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:10,320
Speaker 2: It's both.

79
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:12,280
Speaker 3: I wonder if people listening to the show do feel

80
00:03:12,320 --> 00:03:13,760
Speaker 3: like it's been a long time, because I still feel

81
00:03:13,800 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 3: like we're new, like we're the new Breakfast show, but

82
00:03:17,040 --> 00:03:17,320
Speaker 3: we're not.

83
00:03:17,560 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 2: Yeah. I think about, like say, other radio shows, even

84
00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:21,880
Speaker 2: though we're up against I mean, how long has Fifi

85
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:23,040
Speaker 2: been on Breakfast Radio?

86
00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:27,079
Speaker 3: Years years? Yeah, ten years plus.

87
00:03:26,840 --> 00:03:29,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, and then Carl and Jackie, Oh, how old is

88
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 2: that show? Twenty over twenty years? Six years? Were still

89
00:03:32,800 --> 00:03:34,600
Speaker 2: like the new kids on the block, the old new

90
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:36,120
Speaker 2: kids on the block. They can't really saying new new

91
00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:38,000
Speaker 2: kids on the way. But anyway, thank you very much,

92
00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,440
Speaker 2: shoving one way. You just started listening to show, whether

93
00:03:40,440 --> 00:03:42,280
Speaker 2: it's the last couple of months or the last couple

94
00:03:42,320 --> 00:03:44,800
Speaker 2: of years, or you were here in the early days,

95
00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:47,000
Speaker 2: even when I know a lot of you were listening

96
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 2: with your arms crossed and followed going he's not from here.

97
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:53,400
Speaker 2: He doesn't sound like us, He's not from around here.

98
00:03:53,600 --> 00:03:56,840
Speaker 2: Who the hell invited him onto our radios? Thank you

99
00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:58,440
Speaker 2: very much for being a big part of the show

100
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:00,760
Speaker 2: every single day. The great joy about doing this is

101
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:02,720
Speaker 2: making a show with you guys. So yeah, thank you

Speaker 2: nothing but gratitude. My wife and I and our kids.

104
00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:09,760
Speaker 2: Lies would be so different and actually poor if we

105
00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,360
Speaker 2: hadn't actually taken a leap to movies. So I'm loving

106
00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:14,320
Speaker 2: still doing the show after six years. I hope we're

107
00:04:14,440 --> 00:04:16,960
Speaker 2: together for another couple of years. Not loads more years,

108
00:04:16,960 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 2: but just another couple of years. It's put a little thing.

109
00:04:19,400 --> 00:04:21,200
Speaker 2: It's like a phone contract. You should be able to

110
00:04:21,880 --> 00:04:24,160
Speaker 2: upgrade or you know, maybe get a newer model over

111
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:28,279
Speaker 2: for a couple of years. The Christian O'Connell Show podcast
