Speaker 1: twenty eighteen. Been listened since. It's been a nice daily
Speaker 1: constant in life in a world that is let's stable. Beck.
Speaker 1: Thank you very much. I love this one, John Christian.
Speaker 1: When I was a kid, my mom and dad told
Speaker 1: us that Viennetta was for snobs. I'd like to treat
Speaker 1: my kids and my family pets included to a taste
Speaker 1: of snobbery. I'll take a slough of Vinetta's off your hands.
Speaker 1: Johnny Woy, Yes, plim the social ladder with us. All right,
Speaker 1: let's do tombstone text. We do this every Thursday on
Speaker 1: the show. Get your phone out about what is the
Speaker 1: first text message that's at the top of your phone?
Speaker 1: Imagine that is now your tombstone. What does it say? Perhaps?
Speaker 1: What's your same.
Speaker 14: From my husband last night? Is your spot free?
Speaker 4: So on the school run every day, Audrey is a
Speaker 4: bus traveler, but I go to the bus stop to
Speaker 4: fetch her because she's the ways away.
Speaker 1: Anyway, In reality, what are we went ten yards?
Speaker 14: No, it's a couple of blocks.
Speaker 1: But I used to do that because actually they're exhausted. Yes,
Speaker 1: you're not noticed that that our school bags were about
Speaker 1: what two grams? Sane, it's about fifty kilos. Ridiculous invading
Speaker 1: a country, it's insane.
Speaker 4: The spines, the spies, these kids, it's crazy anyway. So
Speaker 4: she's the only one that gets off at her particular stop.
Speaker 4: So normally I get like peak parking spot right next
Speaker 4: to the bus stop.
Speaker 14: There's no other cars that I have to buy.
Speaker 1: Can someone someone's been told to put out cones. No
Speaker 1: awful if I had to drive around the block, I'd
Speaker 1: hate that to happen and then have your reputation destroyed.
Speaker 4: During my news, there's a new school mum who's I
Speaker 4: don't know the sound of this story much or past tense.
Speaker 14: There was a school she's now disappeared on.
Speaker 1: She's sleeping with the mums.
Speaker 14: The issue I have.
Speaker 4: Is that it's not their stop, so you have to
Speaker 4: use your stop.
Speaker 14: You can't be going around. She didn't, and she's taken
Speaker 14: my spot, hasn't she?
Speaker 1: Wellga, this story does not have a good ending for.
Speaker 14: That intentionally getting there earlier than me. She keeps beating
Speaker 14: me every day. I don't get there early enough to
Speaker 14: get my spot.
Speaker 1: I love these stories of silent wars. We end up
Speaker 1: getting involved with various people we do.
Speaker 4: I get there at a term a corner and there's
Speaker 4: that black kea in my spot, and so I have
Speaker 4: to go right over the other side of the road.
Speaker 1: Like complete could run up to ram.
Speaker 6: All these your ties to slash them.
Speaker 4: Sorry, so she's taking my spot, but she shouldn't be there.
Speaker 14: Because it's not her bus stop.
Speaker 8: But if she's there first, well, true, true, interesting she's
Speaker 8: alpha you, Patsy.
Speaker 1: My wife. My wife would behave the same way. She'd
Speaker 1: be getting so uptight during the day, worried about this.
Speaker 1: She wouldn't be with ax pass.
Speaker 4: I might just on the way from home from work
Speaker 4: in the mornings, like park leave the car there too.
Speaker 14: And then walk back to the car. Let's see her
Speaker 14: shake my park today.
Speaker 1: I can app me out here. We've got a load
Speaker 1: of air task of vouchers. You can put anything on there,
Speaker 1: some oldest park and sit in that bay. Will do that.

Speaker 1: go have a drink this weekend. Support you guys, tell
Speaker 1: us about what they can what they can expect when
Speaker 1: they come.
Speaker 18: Well, mate, we're it's a pretty decently sized venue, very
Speaker 18: old fashioned, you know, typical sports bar. We've got a
Speaker 18: a lot of locals that come in, you know, have
Speaker 18: a drink of a day, like to watch a sport. Upstairs,
Speaker 18: we've got something for the younger crowd, you know, at nighttime.
Speaker 18: We we've got a you know, we've got a DJ
Speaker 18: that comes in. It's really something for everyone, no matter
Speaker 18: who you are. If you're if you're an elderly couple,
Speaker 18: you know, or if you're a young young family.
Speaker 17: You know, there's something for everyone.
Speaker 18: You can come into the kitchen, bring your children if
Speaker 18: you're young, young kids my age, you know, you come
Speaker 18: of a nighttime.
Speaker 17: Yeah, we've really tried to make it a place for
Speaker 17: anyone and everyone.
Speaker 1: This is brilliant. Now, what are the specials at the moment?
Speaker 1: If I'm coming down this weekend, or we've got listeners
Speaker 1: who are going to come down, what would they have
Speaker 1: this weekend? What do you recommend jack from the menu?
Speaker 17: Mate?
Speaker 18: My my two favorites. We've got a very very fairly
Speaker 18: priced beef burger. I think it's around twenty five bucks.
Speaker 17: Massive. It comes with a lot.
Speaker 18: Of chips, beautiful salad, beautiful wagoo patty or I think
Speaker 18: you know staple is obviously the you know, obviously you
Speaker 18: know steak. I think the stakes are great, and we
Speaker 18: do a beautiful We've got a little bit of a
Speaker 18: Japanese fusion on it, so we do a beautiful katsu
Speaker 18: snitzel with a beautiful Japanese curry sauce.
Speaker 1: Oh God, put me down for one of those. You
Speaker 1: have me at katsu sauce. That's it. You should have
Speaker 1: that on tap. I love catsuit sauce. A pint of katsu, please.
Speaker 17: I get it. With everything I've been to get a
Speaker 17: bit of fish and chips.
Speaker 1: Sometimes yes, I get it. And then during the week,
Speaker 1: do you have different theme nights? Did you a trivia night?
Speaker 1: What else have you got going on?
Speaker 17: We had a poker night. We've got a Thursdays and Fridays.

Speaker 18: He's been doing piano nights for us upstairs on beautiful
Speaker 18: Grand Piano Saturday nights is obviously you know, a DJ.
Speaker 18: But what we're most excited to bring back is the
Speaker 18: live bands we used to that was a staple of
Speaker 18: the Unity Hall Hotel for years. Every Friday and Saturday
Speaker 18: night we'd have live music from nine to twelve. That's
Speaker 18: definitely something that you know that people people loved coming
Speaker 18: into the live bands.
Speaker 1: Why don't for keeping that going, mate, because honestly, you know,
Speaker 1: the last twenty years, sixty percent of Australian pubs aren't
Speaker 1: here anymore. And with that dying out, it's not just
Speaker 1: place in the community like your part of them, you
Speaker 1: know what your dad's worked in for forty odd years.
Speaker 1: It's also the live music. So many great bands that
Speaker 1: are some of the best bands in Australia all over
Speaker 1: the world, they learned and learn how to play live
Speaker 1: in the pub scene as well. It's a really important
Speaker 1: thing to have live music. So well, don't for bringing
Speaker 1: that back and protecting it as well.
Speaker 17: Jack, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's that's the plant.
Speaker 1: That's the plan, all right, So well done. You really
Speaker 1: deserve the five thousand. I really hope it works out
Speaker 1: for you and your family and the uncles and mum
Speaker 1: and dad as well, and you Jack as well. I
Speaker 1: think you're going to make a big go of this.
Speaker 1: Give the pub one more plug. They could come in
Speaker 1: this weekend. You've got the microphone, you've got the platform.
Speaker 1: It's all yours.
Speaker 18: Jack wouldn't mind saying quickly thank you to both four
Speaker 18: X and obviously Kevin for nominating us. It's a pub
Speaker 18: for everyone, whether you're a young family, young kids, or
Speaker 18: you know an elderly couple.

Speaker 1: I am. I have a court board in my home
Speaker 1: office and it puts emails like this there that really
Speaker 1: just make me laugh just to wording there and new listener,
Speaker 1: you have not disappointed. It's like there's a part, Luisa,
Speaker 1: there was a part of you that wanted to be disappointed,
Speaker 1: and it's actually slightly disappointed that the replacement for Jones
Speaker 1: in Amanda isn't that disappointment. But anyway, most of morning, Luisa,
Speaker 1: welcome to the show. Thank you very much for giving
Speaker 1: us a go. And you like seeing Vienetta reminds you
Speaker 1: and your husband of the KOs Seal dumb KOs deal,
Speaker 1: dumb back in the day Chaosine. I think it was
Speaker 1: Pizza Hut, some kind of a trial thing before they
Speaker 1: saw this huge appetite for Vonetta's. Yes, you can have some. Christian.
Speaker 1: My son is turning fourteen in a couple of weeks.
Speaker 1: He is a police officer. I would love to embarrass
Speaker 1: him by turning up at the station with some Vonetta
Speaker 1: for the shift and his colleagues. Could you help this?
Speaker 6: Yes, yes, did you say he's fourteen?
Speaker 1: Fourteen? Fourteen year old? But maybe to catch some of
Speaker 1: those teenage wounds. You hire a poacher to catch a poacher?
Speaker 1: Are you listening to me? Police forces of Australia hire
Speaker 1: the teenagers to catch the teenagers. The police are recruiting
Speaker 1: who's to catch wounds? This in new policy. I think
Speaker 1: there's something in that. Christian is from Christian and the team.
Speaker 1: Congratulations in eight years as sharp been listening since way
Speaker 1: back when you and Jack did an afternoon Friday afternoon
Speaker 1: test rum before the show started on Monday, and you
Speaker 1: were giving away rugs. Oh, I don't remember the rugs
Speaker 1: and I think that's maybe an act of kindness. What
Speaker 1: do you remember?
Speaker 14: That was the first thing we gave away.
Speaker 6: It was a rug.
Speaker 4: And I remember when the first day you came into
Speaker 4: the studio, they'd put the sales team.
Speaker 14: And put one under your chair.
Speaker 8: There.
Speaker 1: That's it.
Speaker 14: It wasn't even like a full rug. It was like
Speaker 14: a Mets rug.
Speaker 1: It was a cheap rug that did disappoint Christian Sada.
Speaker 1: It is one of my best efforts. I never won
Speaker 1: that rug. The emotional scars remain. But Christian, I am
Speaker 1: now in charge of staff morale at the primary school
Speaker 1: and have thirty eight staff to keep motivated teachers, admin staff,
Speaker 1: integration aids, before and after school care staff, the whole team.
Speaker 1: Is it too greedy to ask not for a rug
Speaker 1: but for thirty eight vinettas, one for each Christian? I
Speaker 1: genuine believe a personal Vinetta for each staff member would
Speaker 1: solve at least seventy three of my workplace issues and
Speaker 1: dramatically improved morale. I can see Nicole coming while you're
Speaker 1: in charge. It's a tough gig keeping everyone going, and
Speaker 1: I reckon, we appreciate, we appreciate you as what a
Speaker 1: vinetta says. Thank you so much, Christian, Can I have
Speaker 1: some vnesa's Yeah, you can have thirty eight.
