<v Speaker 1>So how's the last couple of days? How was it?

0:01:32.600 --> 0:01:36.680
<v Speaker 2>Obviously you were commentating on to Planters who told us

0:01:36.680 --> 0:01:40.880
<v Speaker 2>about on Monday when we spoke Steve quite incredible jump.

0:01:42.280 --> 0:01:45.959
<v Speaker 4>Oh, unbelievable jump. Yeah, he's a phenomenal athlete. It's a

0:01:45.959 --> 0:01:48.560
<v Speaker 4>once in a generation thing to see. And it was

0:01:48.640 --> 0:01:52.560
<v Speaker 4>just the aversary in the stadium after he cleared that

0:01:53.120 --> 0:01:56.120
<v Speaker 4>six meters twenty five was a great thing to be

0:01:56.160 --> 0:01:56.520
<v Speaker 4>a part of.

0:01:57.200 --> 0:01:59.080
<v Speaker 2>And over the last couple of days watching a lot

0:01:59.120 --> 0:02:02.240
<v Speaker 2>of the pole vaulting. Obviously, another moment in the at

0:02:02.240 --> 0:02:04.920
<v Speaker 2>the Olympics was the man who sadly didn't get a

0:02:04.920 --> 0:02:08.160
<v Speaker 2>gold medal because his genitals gott gotten the way, Has

0:02:08.160 --> 0:02:09.160
<v Speaker 2>that ever happened to you, Steve?

0:02:12.760 --> 0:02:16.320
<v Speaker 4>I'm not sure. Maybe crew having once upon a time.

0:02:16.200 --> 0:02:18.399
<v Speaker 2>You want to boast, don't say. Maybe it doesn't sound

0:02:18.440 --> 0:02:20.399
<v Speaker 2>a flex to say. Maybe one Christian is to happen

0:02:20.440 --> 0:02:22.919
<v Speaker 2>all the time. I would have cleared seven, I would

0:02:22.919 --> 0:02:23.440
<v Speaker 2>have cleared seven.

0:02:23.480 --> 0:02:26.239
<v Speaker 3>It wasn't for my nutsack, they told me.

0:02:30.480 --> 0:02:32.640
<v Speaker 1>So, Steve, what can we look forward to?

0:02:33.000 --> 0:02:36.079
<v Speaker 2>It's obviously about half ten in the evening Paris time now,

0:02:36.680 --> 0:02:38.400
<v Speaker 2>so it's the end of today. But what's coming up

0:02:38.480 --> 0:02:40.400
<v Speaker 2>during the next twenty four hours? And what a lovely

0:02:40.440 --> 0:02:42.360
<v Speaker 2>time of the day to start doing another cross as well?

0:02:42.400 --> 0:02:44.760
<v Speaker 2>To a radio station in Australia, is ten thirty in

0:02:44.800 --> 0:02:46.480
<v Speaker 2>the evening as you're getting ready for bed.

0:02:47.400 --> 0:02:52.160
<v Speaker 4>More like eleven thirty, But that's fine. Who's counting. We're tomorrow.

0:02:52.200 --> 0:02:57.679
<v Speaker 4>We've got women's javelin qualifying. We've got the gold medal hope.

0:02:57.720 --> 0:03:00.200
<v Speaker 4>I believe McKenzie would ale in that, So she gets

0:03:00.280 --> 0:03:02.840
<v Speaker 4>underway tomorrow, so does man's high jump. And in the

0:03:02.880 --> 0:03:05.120
<v Speaker 4>evening we've got gold medals up for grabs to Matt

0:03:05.160 --> 0:03:07.440
<v Speaker 4>Denny in the discus and Nina Kennedy in the poll bot.

0:03:08.200 --> 0:03:10.200
<v Speaker 1>Now, Jackie boy, you know Matt Denny you played golf.

0:03:10.240 --> 0:03:12.600
<v Speaker 3>I played one round of golf with Matt Denny Knightholser,

0:03:12.680 --> 0:03:14.920
<v Speaker 3>not even a full round, but I could tell just

0:03:14.960 --> 0:03:16.720
<v Speaker 3>by the way he swung the club that he knew

0:03:16.800 --> 0:03:20.519
<v Speaker 3>something about moving an object around his body like he will.

0:03:20.639 --> 0:03:22.160
<v Speaker 1>And he goes got a golf swing. There's a three

0:03:22.120 --> 0:03:24.160
<v Speaker 1>to sixteen. He just rotates in the pain.

0:03:25.440 --> 0:03:27.040
<v Speaker 4>He can hit a long ball, can't he, Jackie.

0:03:27.480 --> 0:03:30.359
<v Speaker 3>He actually used to do long drive competitions, did he really?

0:03:30.520 --> 0:03:32.040
<v Speaker 3>Before he started playing golf proper.

0:03:32.360 --> 0:03:34.560
<v Speaker 1>So you think he's a gold medal contender.

0:03:35.920 --> 0:03:37.440
<v Speaker 4>He is. And he's also got a putting green in

0:03:37.520 --> 0:03:42.680
<v Speaker 4>his in his dorm, so he's putting between throwing the disc.

0:03:42.800 --> 0:03:44.840
<v Speaker 3>Where everyone else is complaining about not even able to

0:03:44.960 --> 0:03:49.240
<v Speaker 3>sleep on beds out of Cardboardy he built a putting

0:03:49.280 --> 0:03:50.040
<v Speaker 3>green in his room.

0:03:50.320 --> 0:03:51.880
<v Speaker 1>I feel sorry for whoever he's sharing with.

0:03:52.720 --> 0:03:57.880
<v Speaker 2>Please I need I'm competing at six am.

0:03:56.560 --> 0:03:58.680
<v Speaker 4>And he's sharing with Brannon Stark is high jumping to Mirow,

0:03:58.720 --> 0:04:00.560
<v Speaker 4>So they're both on the same days, so they're probably

0:04:00.560 --> 0:04:03.080
<v Speaker 4>just just a bit of a pre match warm up

0:04:03.160 --> 0:04:05.280
<v Speaker 4>on the putting green. It'd be nice for both of them.

0:04:05.160 --> 0:04:06.840
<v Speaker 1>Now, Steve, does that right? Is that right? Do a

0:04:06.920 --> 0:04:08.640
<v Speaker 1>lot of the athletes share rooms together?

0:04:08.680 --> 0:04:10.680
<v Speaker 2>Do they have to because obviously there's so many athletes

0:04:10.720 --> 0:04:11.960
<v Speaker 2>there from around the world, they've.

0:04:11.760 --> 0:04:12.240
<v Speaker 1>Got to share.

0:04:13.400 --> 0:04:15.280
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, that's pretty common, and you'll often get someone that

0:04:15.320 --> 0:04:17.320
<v Speaker 4>you click with and that you love to share a

0:04:17.400 --> 0:04:20.680
<v Speaker 4>room with and your personalities match and you compliment each other,

0:04:20.720 --> 0:04:23.360
<v Speaker 4>and you know what can be a pretty intense situation.

0:04:23.520 --> 0:04:27.239
<v Speaker 4>So yeah, Matt, Matt, Denny and Brandon stuff the high jumper.

0:04:27.680 --> 0:04:31.359
<v Speaker 4>They regularly share together and in fact I believe their

0:04:31.480 --> 0:04:35.279
<v Speaker 4>wives both have an Airbnb and they're sharing together outside

0:04:35.279 --> 0:04:35.679
<v Speaker 4>the village.

0:04:36.800 --> 0:04:42.080
<v Speaker 3>No proper non cardboard bed, Steve, who is your roommate?

0:04:42.160 --> 0:04:44.200
<v Speaker 1>Were at the Olympics?

0:04:44.600 --> 0:04:47.559
<v Speaker 4>I was very lucky accident. I've roomed with my best

0:04:47.560 --> 0:04:51.120
<v Speaker 4>mate Brendan Cole. We went away, I had first team

0:04:51.120 --> 0:04:54.080
<v Speaker 4>together in high school. Were really good mates and then

0:04:54.120 --> 0:04:56.080
<v Speaker 4>he made his personal big team where he was thirty

0:04:56.120 --> 0:04:58.000
<v Speaker 4>one in London in twenty twelve and we got the

0:04:58.120 --> 0:05:00.960
<v Speaker 4>room together at that composition. We had a good time.

0:05:01.279 --> 0:05:03.599
<v Speaker 1>Ah, how amazing. Now I know you're a Blues fan.

0:05:03.680 --> 0:05:06.040
<v Speaker 2>Did you have you managed to find somewhere in Paris

0:05:06.040 --> 0:05:08.280
<v Speaker 2>week and watch the footy? Did you find a bar

0:05:08.400 --> 0:05:09.680
<v Speaker 2>with the time diment so you can see how the

0:05:09.680 --> 0:05:10.760
<v Speaker 2>Blue's gone on the weekend.

0:05:12.240 --> 0:05:14.720
<v Speaker 4>I've been watching the Blues for a few weeks, just

0:05:15.120 --> 0:05:17.760
<v Speaker 4>following the app and following the scoreworm, which is a

0:05:17.960 --> 0:05:19.680
<v Speaker 4>pretty stressful way to watch for to.

0:05:19.680 --> 0:05:22.520
<v Speaker 3>Be honest, Steve Is this true? I told Andy Lee

0:05:22.640 --> 0:05:24.440
<v Speaker 3>that we had you on the show this week, and

0:05:24.480 --> 0:05:27.280
<v Speaker 3>he said, at one stage, you were trying to write

0:05:27.360 --> 0:05:30.240
<v Speaker 3>a new blues theme Songause.

0:05:30.400 --> 0:05:34.560
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I've had to go. I've tried to rewrite. I

0:05:34.600 --> 0:05:36.520
<v Speaker 4>guess that's why they caught the Blues too. I guess

0:05:36.560 --> 0:05:40.040
<v Speaker 4>it's already followed the Blues attributed to you.

0:05:40.120 --> 0:05:43.159
<v Speaker 2>Wait finals, will we will pay for you to go

0:05:43.240 --> 0:05:45.279
<v Speaker 2>into a studio and sing that?

0:05:45.800 --> 0:05:47.880
<v Speaker 3>How fun did you write all the lyrics? Have you

0:05:48.200 --> 0:05:49.359
<v Speaker 3>recorded it somewhere?

0:05:50.520 --> 0:05:53.240
<v Speaker 4>I've actually done sort of a couple of different versions

0:05:53.279 --> 0:05:56.960
<v Speaker 4>of it. I did one tribute to the twenty twenty

0:05:56.960 --> 0:05:58.800
<v Speaker 4>two team where I sort of was calling out some

0:05:58.839 --> 0:06:02.239
<v Speaker 4>of the individual players. Very dorky stuff here.
