Speaker 5: is very very nice. What have you got planned for
Speaker 5: the in laws?

Speaker 6: No, all my planning so far is honestly about getting
Speaker 6: ready for him. So I am cleaning the car today,
Speaker 6: I am cleaning the house top to bottom tomorrow.
Speaker 5: So stressful, isn't it? Because obviously now Sarah's mum lives here.
Speaker 5: So it's constantly whenever I get like a two or
Speaker 5: three day warning that she's come around to visit us,
Speaker 5: it's like a royal visit, the cleaning you have to do.
Speaker 5: And I'm like, do you know what? Why do we
Speaker 5: even care what she thinks? So more, she's lucky she
Speaker 5: snorked us out here. You think she has got the
Speaker 5: clue when I'm moving your daughter or any green kids
Speaker 5: the other side of the world. And then two years
Speaker 5: later she went checked mate goose, who's back? Shady's back.
Speaker 5: So it doesn't matter. She's lucky to have this luck
Speaker 5: out here. At least the god webs up, does it? Monname?
Speaker 5: What's she going to do? Chow me off? Now?
Speaker 6: The great thing about having Bianker's parents come, though, is
Speaker 6: last time they were here they did do a lot
Speaker 6: of babysitting, even overnight stays.
Speaker 5: Is a huge The least you could do a step
Speaker 5: to the buffet, and it is genuinely a beautiful buffet,
Speaker 5: there isn't it. So Patsy, you must be over the
Speaker 5: moon already came back. She'd been away for all of
Speaker 5: forty six hours.
Speaker 3: All is better and back to normally in my world,
Speaker 3: she's back from the wilderness, back from the deserts of
Speaker 3: camp and school camp and sleeping out under the stars
Speaker 3: in amongst the wild creatures and things.
Speaker 5: Oh this happened to this? This is some lovely message
Speaker 5: from Patsy's taught Aloradi about her experience at this camp
Speaker 5: and the deserts in the wilderness.
Speaker 8: One night at camp, we went to bare Foot Bowls.
Speaker 8: Oh yeah, No one was really playing it. We were
Speaker 8: kind of just messing around. And then it got too
Speaker 8: dark to walk back to camp, so the teachers had
Speaker 8: to drive us, and the teacher I got to turn
Speaker 8: the music up full blast and put all the windows down.
Speaker 5: So was she staying in an RSL?
Speaker 6: May it sound like she was in the middle of
Speaker 6: the wilderness?
Speaker 5: Jack? You know what the desert.
Speaker 3: I think we were. We had the wrong idea because
Speaker 3: I literally thought that they were camping on the sand
Speaker 3: at the beach. And then I find out that.
Speaker 5: No, maybe a sad at the RSL, you know Pops
Speaker 5: on Tuesday night, Palm and Pops ones, the kids are
Speaker 5: playing in a sand pit.
Speaker 3: I picked her up and I said, oh, how was
Speaker 3: it and she said, oh, we've stayed there before? And
Speaker 3: I said, what do you mean we've stayed there before?
Speaker 3: Turns out it was at the Big Four where we
Speaker 3: went this year.
Speaker 5: That's not a wilderness experience. What this season? Season nine?
Speaker 5: On alone at the Big Four?
Speaker 6: And I will all the shower stools be taken.
Speaker 5: Or the Wi fi still be on the blink? Who
Speaker 5: is that shady looking proprietor who looks like he's going
Speaker 5: to drink? Problem?
Speaker 8: Boy?
Speaker 3: Couldn't have been It was meant to be a camp
Speaker 3: And she goes, no, you know, mum with the big
Speaker 3: giant inflatable pillow and the indoor pool and the kiosk, and.
Speaker 5: I want to see sas next season, you know, not
Speaker 5: another string conditions they set that Big Four weerribee.
Speaker 3: Unbelievable. I thought that they was still camping, but it
Speaker 3: was at the Big Four with like last slush.
Speaker 5: Glass is a cop out isn't it? Did she enjoy it? Though?
Speaker 9: Oh?
Speaker 3: She had the best time, had the best best time.
Speaker 3: She was exhausted last night, exhausted, hair was matted.
Speaker 6: Now she's on the trampoline the playground happy hour.
Speaker 3: She'd worn the same pair of socks the whole entire time,
Speaker 3: even though we packed her five pairs of socks.
Speaker 5: She had the same She's going to get through fives
Speaker 5: in forty eight hours, every twelve hours, but another pair
Speaker 5: of socks.
Speaker 3: I thought they were like drenching mangrove crops and.

Speaker 5: wilderness experience with these young kids, a two day expedition
Speaker 5: in the wild before.
Speaker 10: Awesome Patsy The Christian Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 5: If you're a regular listener to this early part of
Speaker 5: the show, the Secret Hour, you'd I've heard over the
Speaker 5: last couple of days Patsy talking about, in fact, the
Speaker 5: last couple of weeks, the preparations, everything that was needed
Speaker 5: to get ready. There was one moment last week, Patsy,
Speaker 5: where you were talking about the medical jabs and inoculation
Speaker 5: that was needed to go.
Speaker 6: You honestly would have thought that Audie was walking the
Speaker 6: Kakoda Trail.
Speaker 7: Not so.
Speaker 5: Patsy picked her daughter up yesterday from a two day
Speaker 5: camp experience, and obviously you'd think out in the wilderness,
Speaker 5: the rewilding experience, as is the way these days, but
Speaker 5: it was a big four holiday park. We're just we're
Speaker 5: at the website. This place is Queenslive, which is a
Speaker 5: gorgeous area, right, there's nothing remote or wild about Queens Cliff.
Speaker 5: It's a really beautiful spot there. And when I come
Speaker 5: on this website, yoga classes.
Speaker 6: They've got everything you'd ever want.
Speaker 5: This is sort of you know, where we're give when
Speaker 5: we were giving away those big trips on a Friday,
Speaker 5: kristen Brook holiday experiences not that dissimilar to this. You know,
Speaker 5: they've got it. There's a tennis court, yes, I know,
Speaker 5: tennis courts, aren't it out in the bush and the
Speaker 5: willness tennis courts.

Speaker 5: says that non smoking accommodation is available if you if
Speaker 5: you winges, you know want you our guests not to
Speaker 5: have to smoke out here. But this is it was
Speaker 5: already in non smoking or you want to smoking by
Speaker 5: the way cut how kids, he says, they got a
Speaker 5: lot of pressure going on, you know, a couple of
Speaker 5: darts while they're away from mom and dad. What a slide.
Speaker 5: I want to go here.
Speaker 7: This is.
Speaker 5: Also it lits under the amenities here a security boomgate
Speaker 5: as well. That's what you want when I want to
Speaker 5: stay right, I want to know you've got a security
Speaker 5: boom gate like the one we have here at work
Speaker 5: that if you notice that one's been ripped off for
Speaker 5: about three months, you know there's always something broken at
Speaker 5: wherever you work. Right, there's a security boom gate which
Speaker 5: I don't know. Some disgruntled employee must have just broken
Speaker 5: once when they were leaving this place. It's never worked
Speaker 5: in five and a half years. The it's the exit
Speaker 5: one though, there were someone so desperate to get out
Speaker 5: of this place smash through it. Normally you're smashing into place,
Speaker 5: don't you breaking into it? Here? They were so desperate
Speaker 5: to they broke through it. So did she have a
Speaker 5: nice time and hard not to?
Speaker 8: She did?
Speaker 5: She did?

Speaker 5: a bit. Okay, next kid.
Speaker 3: On, please, No, she had a fantastic time. That's a
Speaker 3: good thing about it is that the.
Speaker 5: First time she's allowed to be on a bicycle, because
Speaker 5: I know you don't like new technology like.
Speaker 3: That time she was a latter. But they did have
Speaker 3: to intervene at one point because she kept running into
Speaker 3: people's front fences. So no, she's had just had the
Speaker 3: best time.
Speaker 5: So are they back to school today?
Speaker 3: Back to school today? There'll be some tied kids. It
Speaker 3: was funny, she said. When they got back to school yesterday.

Speaker 5: Yesterday, I was stuck in traffic and the car in
Speaker 5: front of me all that was as ute was his logo.
Speaker 5: He was a corker and his number plate is regio
Speaker 5: was Cork one. So I wonder if other people have
Speaker 5: got car edgers that are related to their jobs. You
Speaker 5: ever look into this, They get like news zero one
Speaker 5: or something.
Speaker 6: Portant, and then as soon as he's got that, he'll
Speaker 6: be so happy because you can't have cork two or three.
Speaker 6: I don't want to get the second best corker in
Speaker 6: the city.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I was thinking he must be very proud of
Speaker 5: that he's the number one corka in the whole city.
Speaker 5: Perhaps you never thought about getting like news sound one
Speaker 5: or anything.
Speaker 3: It costs a fortune, does it?
Speaker 12: Yes?
Speaker 3: To go to vic Roads and get a personalized plate
Speaker 3: ain't cheap.
Speaker 5: I know now I know what to get you for
Speaker 5: your birthday. Actually, I'm going to get your news or
Speaker 5: acrop one.
Speaker 3: Oh yes, I'd like that.
Speaker 5: I thought you might deny it through fake modesty.
Speaker 6: But no, absolutely not and then maybe we could get
Speaker 6: the acro trophy that you got on the front of
Speaker 6: your park.
Speaker 5: Some people have the Virgin Mary or something, you know,
Speaker 5: the religious artwer fact that she's that is to perhaps
Speaker 5: be a shrine to herself and the actress.
Speaker 6: I saw a great one actually recently. I took a
Speaker 6: photo of it to show you guys, because Bianker and
Speaker 6: I were arguing over whether we thought that it was
Speaker 6: in good taste or not. I saw a hearse that
Speaker 6: had the.
Speaker 5: Number plate No, no, no, no, no, you're kidding me,
Speaker 5: not postalized red SIHO.
Speaker 6: Six feet Oh no, really think that's a bad taste?
Speaker 5: Yes you think you know?
Speaker 6: To bery Nan, everybody at the graveside, it's like, oh
Speaker 6: six feet under, Oh my.
Speaker 5: God, it's a moment of brevity and solemnity, isn't it.
Speaker 5: It's not for a cheeky bit of bands. No, because
Speaker 5: they're all dressed somber. The car's in black, everyone's in black,
Speaker 5: and that it's a somber moment. Six feet is just
Speaker 5: too clip.
Speaker 6: And the guy filling out that, like the format VicRoads,
Speaker 6: he's had a lot of chances for people to go.
Speaker 6: I don't think this is a good taste. I know
Speaker 6: I want to pay top dollars cuts.
Speaker 5: I think people in the who are morning need just
Speaker 5: a little bit of humor like this and this as
Speaker 5: they see it. So that's the actual hearse that carries
Speaker 5: a coffee.
Speaker 3: Real didn't have fluffy dice as well, didn't.
Speaker 2: You're listening to the question you know, Carl's Show podcast.

Speaker 5: evidence of it.

Speaker 5: Just that is one where you don't have a little
Speaker 5: bit of bounds. The rest of the jobs are the
Speaker 5: anything is up for grabs, but that one needs to
Speaker 5: be protected. The cars look different to any other car.
Speaker 5: They have a coffin in them with a dead family
Speaker 5: member that isn't your own family member. Christian, I saw

Speaker 5: What a treat then A brilliant stand up comedian. Irish
Speaker 5: comedian Dara O'Brien is here in Melbourne tonight. He's at
Speaker 5: the Art Center Melbourne, is playing Hamer Hall. He's paid
Speaker 5: him many times over the years. Some of you might
Speaker 5: know there's a fantastic British weekly comedy show called Mock
Speaker 5: the Week. Dara has been the outstanding host over the
Speaker 5: last fifteen years for that. So I'm not the only
Speaker 5: fan of Dara O'Brien around the world. My dad's a
Speaker 5: huge fan. Last year I got on tickets to go
Speaker 5: and see Dara's show that you can see tonight. Dara.
Speaker 5: Before we actually catch up, I need to apologize because
Speaker 5: I know my dad actually became part of your show
Speaker 5: last year.
Speaker 13: There's a man in the audience. I'm working the room. Boom,
Speaker 13: what do you do? Wow? I go, Hey, what's your name?
Speaker 5: The name is Liam?
Speaker 13: Liam?
Speaker 5: Is Liam?
Speaker 13: How you Liam? And then Liam stops and goes wait,
Speaker 13: I said, what. I'm Christian O'Connell's dad. And the offer
Speaker 13: of this is as possibly as a human shield.
Speaker 6: Please, you know my son.
Speaker 5: So he eff actually stopped you dead in your flow
Speaker 5: and try it brought unnecessary information. That is my dad.
Speaker 5: That's my relationship my dad. That's a kid.
Speaker 13: You'd be like if you're gone, I know your mother
Speaker 13: and I go, she's got here. This isn't helping the show.
Speaker 5: I know you turned fifty last year. I hit fifty
Speaker 5: this year. How are your fifties treating you?
Speaker 13: I'm okay with fifty. I mean I liked fifty as
Speaker 13: a number because there's a solid yes, yeah, it's an
Speaker 13: Innings forty. It stopped me having a party the COVID
Speaker 13: thing because of the timing of us meant we could
Speaker 13: have a bash because I really wanted to make a
Speaker 13: speech of fifty, because I think the speech of fifty
Speaker 13: is probably the last unconditionally great speech you can make.
Speaker 13: Because the speech is sixty.
Speaker 5: What's was going to happen at sixty?
Speaker 13: At some point it wash you're turning to a different
Speaker 13: woman and going, hey, just wanting.
Speaker 5: To thank you, you know, I want to.
Speaker 13: I want to think Rora has been with me some
Speaker 13: difficult times, you know, but I didn't think it was
Speaker 13: the last. Clear It's all been great, can we just.
Speaker 5: Go like bank, so tell me about the new show.
Speaker 5: Then you're.
Speaker 13: The show is actually show's got a story to it.
Speaker 13: The show's got a real kind of a bit of
Speaker 13: a hard to have a thing to it because normally
Speaker 13: come here with the bang bang bang and the funny, funny, funny,
Speaker 13: and there's loads of that.
Speaker 5: Just call the next show that, by the way, bang
Speaker 5: bang bang with funny, funny, funny.
Speaker 13: Musical honestly, because this one has a kind of a
Speaker 13: you know, there's a bit of a kind of an
Speaker 13: emotional thing with Eli. It's the family story. It's an
Speaker 13: adoption story to finding.
Speaker 5: So you are you now talking about that? You know
Speaker 5: you're talking about that.
Speaker 13: Yeah, And that's what kind of turned out to be
Speaker 13: when it did the whole thing trying to be an
Speaker 13: amazing story. We have these weird twists and stuff like that,
Speaker 13: like there, and so it trying to be really interesting
Speaker 13: to do this because.
Speaker 5: So if people don't know anything about it, you just
Speaker 5: sound amazing. Is it going to give anything a wife
Speaker 5: from the show.
Speaker 13: Yeah, yeah, let me hold back the thing from within it.
Speaker 13: But like I did do the search for all that,
Speaker 13: like and they're.
Speaker 5: Going to wonder what you're searching for the search for calm.
Speaker 13: No, no, for myself. I turned out I was there
Speaker 13: all along. It was for my birth mother.
Speaker 5: And what made you do it? Was it turning a
Speaker 5: certain age, or heading a certain age, or just something
Speaker 5: you felt.
Speaker 13: Like weirdly, they went to a film. I went to
Speaker 13: see Philamine Steve Coogan. Steve Coogan film Beautiful about about
Speaker 13: the mother who gave the child up never knew what happened.
Speaker 5: So you want to find out your biological mother's version
Speaker 5: of the story.
Speaker 13: Yeah, but no, no more than I wanted to just
Speaker 13: let her know that it was okay. Oh wow, worked
Speaker 13: out all right.
Speaker 5: Well, I'm definitely I'm going to come along and see
Speaker 5: the show. I really want to hear the full story. Tar.
Speaker 5: It's an amazing thing to do.
Speaker 13: I'd love to have you there and then sit in

Speaker 5: has lined us both up together.
Speaker 6: This is where we are.
Speaker 5: These are the only I was a non crying spaceman.
Speaker 5: I Sandy can cry. Now tell what is your fact
Speaker 5: for us? Mate?
Speaker 7: My fact is that snails have between two thousand and
Speaker 7: fourteen thousand teeth, and there's a sea snaile called the Olympics.
Speaker 7: It has twenty thousand teeth, and these are arranged in
Speaker 7: like lines across their tongue, and they move forward and
Speaker 7: say we're out. Yeah. The material of their teeth is
Speaker 7: the hardest bier to call material on earth.
Speaker 5: We're all having a little chucolate today and it was
Speaker 5: all good so far. The hardest I thought that was
Speaker 5: a spider's web. The silk from a spider's web can
Speaker 5: snap off a man's head five times.
Speaker 7: Harder than that.
Speaker 5: Good to go to the five times harder.
Speaker 7: And they say it's it's harder than titanium as well,
Speaker 7: and they say that under pressure in some studies it
Speaker 7: could form diamonds and so hard.
Speaker 6: So scientists got bidden on the he's trying to count
Speaker 6: the teeth and he got bit and he's like.
Speaker 5: Oh that is hat. Yeah, why don't they give an
Speaker 5: old people sort of instead of titanium limbs which lost
Speaker 5: a lot of money, snell teeth hips You you have
Speaker 5: tiny these things, Yeah, a lot of them. We've got
Speaker 5: to farm and crush up together with a pestle and mortar.
Speaker 7: Well, it's rang to say that because when these limports
Speaker 7: prew it's like concrete.
Speaker 5: Second toughest biological material after those teeth.
Speaker 6: Four tiers.
Speaker 5: Now, I've got to ask you, right, how do you
Speaker 5: know so much this time in the morning about snails
Speaker 5: and their teeth.
Speaker 7: It popped up one day on Facebook, so I decided
Speaker 7: to go in and look at it and see if
Speaker 7: it was true or not.
Speaker 5: I love it. I love I love the fact it
Speaker 5: stayed with you ever since until this moment. No need

Speaker 5: us all mote.
Speaker 7: Thank you.
Speaker 2: This is the Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 5: One of your facts earlier today and what the facts
Speaker 5: was about how in space you can't cry. The lack
Speaker 5: of gravity, there's nothing to draw the tears down and out. Christian.
Speaker 5: If we just talk about astronauts can't cry, this is true.
Speaker 5: My son saw the Canadian astronaut commanded Chris Hadfeld speak
Speaker 5: and explain he got something in his eye on a spacewalk.
Speaker 5: You try to wash it away with tears. But as
Speaker 5: your fact says, tears don't flow. So as I swelled
Speaker 5: up and he went blind temporarily on the spacewalk, and
Speaker 5: then his thorough training got him back inside where the
Speaker 5: swelling could be reduced and his vision came back. That's
Speaker 5: an amazing story.
Speaker 6: But being in space or not, you don't wash things
Speaker 6: out of your eye with tears. How do you do that?
Speaker 5: I don't know. Maybe that's part of the training.
Speaker 6: I'm sure they make yourself cry and the mess.
Speaker 5: They're watching put some books. I'm telling you, all right,
Speaker 5: So yesterna show, I was talking about how I have
Speaker 5: a very basic kitchen one on one problem trying to
Speaker 5: cook rice, and there were lots of different things for
Speaker 5: some of the so simple. Actually there's about of one
Speaker 5: hundred different ways of cook rice. I don't realize you
Speaker 5: actually made a simple thing even more complicated. But one
Speaker 5: of you called in and said, actually, what my secret
Speaker 5: is is I use stock. I use a chicken stop,
Speaker 5: which really adds to the flavor of the rice. So
Speaker 5: everyone loves to share a secret, whether it's cooking or

Speaker 5: various viruses going around right now. All chemists Warehouse need
Speaker 5: to do it. Starts selling onions account all right, let's
Speaker 5: go to who we got here? Alisha, good morning, Hi guys,
Speaker 5: how are you? We're good, Alisia, welcome to the show.
Speaker 5: So last twenty minutes then people been sharing their secrets.
Speaker 5: What have you got for us?
Speaker 17: I've got a good one. I think it's a helpful one.
Speaker 17: When I work in the dental industry, my advice is
Speaker 17: when you brush your teeth, do not rinse your mouth
Speaker 17: with water afterwards.
Speaker 5: Just spit out.
Speaker 17: Any excess toothpaste and leave the toothpaste on your teeth
Speaker 17: to work its wonders. So a regular toothpaste has fluoride
Speaker 17: in it. If you rinse out, you wash it all away.
Speaker 17: And if you're someone who's using a sensitive toothpaste again,
Speaker 17: you wash it away. So just leave the toothpaste on there.
Speaker 6: Okay, to work very minty though.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's quite a thick sort of cooking on your teeth,
Speaker 5: isn't it. Start kissing your partner with it. It's all
Speaker 5: chalky on.
Speaker 17: There a toothpaste that you're using. But otherwise, if you're
Speaker 17: washing out your mouth with water, you're just rinting it
Speaker 17: all the way. You're not going to get any benefits
Speaker 17: from it whatsoever.
Speaker 5: But wouldn't some of the residu you stay behind the
Speaker 5: stuff that needs to stay behind, and that's what you want.
Speaker 17: You want there is a little bit of residue on
Speaker 17: your teeth. Fit out any excess so that you're comfortable
Speaker 17: and away you go.
Speaker 5: But don't some of the chemicals wouldn't They then soak
Speaker 5: into your gums, get into your bloodstream and do nasty
Speaker 5: stuff to me while I sleepy.
Speaker 17: No, well that's why you split out the excess. So,
Speaker 17: I mean, you know a lot of people use their
Speaker 17: mouth rints and they're horrendous to you. That's going to
Speaker 17: soak in. But the toothpaste is like you know, you're
Speaker 17: talking such a small amount anyway, but enough to benefit
Speaker 17: the teeth and not enough to be harmful. You're not
Speaker 17: ingesting it.
Speaker 5: Mouthwash?
Speaker 17: No good, no, no, don't waste your time and money.
Speaker 3: I use one daily twice.
Speaker 5: Aw is judge people if I go in they've got that.
Speaker 5: I think they've got stinky breath. Just improved.
Speaker 4: Thank you well, Christian Connell's show podcasts.
Speaker 5: So we really need your help. And it's not us
Speaker 5: on the show, it's actually a lot of children sadly
Speaker 5: in Melbourne. Over the last couple of if you've been
Speaker 5: listening to a show and you've been part of the
Speaker 5: journey that they're on. There's one charity that you actually
Speaker 5: one of you told us about called Backpacks of It Kids,
Speaker 5: and it's a really, really really small charity run mainly
Speaker 5: by the kindness and generosity of volunteers, and they do
Speaker 5: an amazing thing. The reason why they call Backpacks of
Speaker 5: It Kids is children who are taken into care for
Speaker 5: their own wellness and safety, they get them a small backpack.
Speaker 5: Each backpack costs about seventy dollars, but the real value
Speaker 5: to a kid who must be scared and feeling really
Speaker 5: overwhelmed is that someone somewhere thinks of them and it
Speaker 5: gives them some basics and I'm talking like pencils, pens,
Speaker 5: a book in there, just basic stuff like that. So
Speaker 5: it takes about seventy five bucks to put these packs together,
Speaker 5: and over the last couple of years, you guys have
Speaker 5: kindly generated over three hundred thousand dollars, which is a
Speaker 5: huge amount of money. And I am aware that you
Speaker 5: know Melbourne, there's no city in the world that suffered
Speaker 5: more than the lockdowns, And sadly, one of the amazing
Speaker 5: women that work there for are backpacks of it. Kids
Speaker 5: called me yesterday, Sally, and she was, you know, sometimes
Speaker 5: in life you feel almost embarrassed to be asking for help.
Speaker 5: She called me yesterday evening and I said, what is it?
Speaker 5: Because they're such an amazing charity. We'll always do anything
Speaker 5: we can for them. And she said, now, I actually
Speaker 5: was really sad to hear this, and I think you
Speaker 5: all will, right, she said this amazing fact yesterday she
Speaker 5: said that actually they need three thousand or what they
Speaker 5: call these Canti packs. So these Canti packs are for
Speaker 5: kids who this Christmas aren't going to be at home.
Speaker 5: They're not going to be with their families. They are
Speaker 5: in they're in care for their own safety. A lot
Speaker 5: of they're in foster homes. And she was telling me
Speaker 5: about one family who've taken in just the last ten days,
Speaker 5: three different kids from three different families. Right, that's how
Speaker 5: bad the situation is. The situation is so bad because
Speaker 5: the high interest rates, because a lot of families just
Speaker 5: haven't been able to get on safe ground coming out
Speaker 5: of COVID. So there's no judgment here, however, that these
Speaker 5: kids are it's a huge number of them. I didn't
Speaker 5: realize it was so far high. I had no idea.
Speaker 5: So Sally said, at the moment, there are three thousand
Speaker 5: children they're trying to get these Centti packs too, right,
Speaker 5: three thousand is a huge, huge amount of children who
Speaker 5: are going to go without one simple Christmas present this year.
Speaker 5: Sally said, it's so bad Christian. By the end of today,
Speaker 5: that number, based on how quickly is going up every
Speaker 5: single day. This is just today, so it's ten past eight. Now,
Speaker 5: by the end of today that number will be five
Speaker 5: thousand children. Five thousand children who simply won't get a
Speaker 5: little Christmas present this year. So it cost them thirty
Speaker 5: five dollars and they literally go out and about their
Speaker 5: go to the shops to put these packs together. So
Speaker 5: I know some people are reluctant with charity. So he
Speaker 5: is paying for a lot of sort of middle management
Speaker 5: who owning you know, big salaries to do not a lot.
Speaker 5: You want the money, you want your bang for buck.
Speaker 5: You want to know whatever money you're going to give
Speaker 5: over this year, if you can give and donate, it's
Speaker 5: going to have a real impact. I promise you, and
Speaker 5: on heart, I wouldn't be coming to you a couple
Speaker 5: of weeks before Christmas asking for money unless I could
Speaker 5: guarantee that as much of your money does go to
Speaker 5: those kids. So it's thirty five dollars for one of
Speaker 5: these little they call them center packs at the moment.
Speaker 5: Then they've managed to get sixteen hundred, which is amazing.
Speaker 5: The money has just run out. There's no more money,
Speaker 5: so there's no more of these little Cunti packs. They
Speaker 5: really want to try and meet the three thousand, so
Speaker 5: that's double the amount at the moment, but there are
Speaker 5: going to be over five thousand by the end of today.
Speaker 5: So I really didn't want to be in this situation
Speaker 5: where we're asking you for money so near to Christmas,
Speaker 5: because I'm aware that a lot of you actually listening
Speaker 5: probably had quite a tough time and you're worried about yourself.
Speaker 5: So if you can't donate, you can't donate. So that's okay.
Speaker 5: If you can give anything, whether that's ten bucks, twenty bucks,
Speaker 5: you can do the thirty five bucks and know that
Speaker 5: that is one these Canti backs. That is amazing. So
Speaker 5: the place to go if you can donate, and we
Speaker 5: really appreciate the time of the year and also just
Speaker 5: how scary times are at the moment with the cost
Speaker 5: of living and issuant rises, but you appreciate you know,
Speaker 5: we're lucky to have this platform on the show. When
Speaker 5: I heard that yesterday about the three thousand that was
Speaker 5: yesterday evening going up to five thousand tonight, I really
Speaker 5: want to do something, so I hope you don't mind
Speaker 5: us asking you for money, whether that is twenty bucks,
Speaker 5: thirty bucks. If you can donate, go on the page
Speaker 5: and just leave your name so we can do small thing,
Speaker 5: which is say thank you on the show. So the
Speaker 5: place you go to is the Christian O'Connor Show dot
Speaker 5: com dot au and just thirty five dollars. I know
Speaker 5: for some of you it's too much. You won't be
Speaker 5: able to do anything because you're worried about Christmas and
Speaker 5: some are coming up. But if you can thirty five
Speaker 5: dollars will make a real difference to a lonely, scared
Speaker 5: child this year. That number five thousand by the end
Speaker 5: of day is a lot of kids. Let's try and
Speaker 5: help out as many as we can. The Christian o'connorll
Speaker 5: Show dot com dot au.
Speaker 2: This is the Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 5: So whatever you can give that every thirty five dollars
Speaker 5: is a Santa pack to one poor kid who won't
Speaker 5: have any Christmas presents this year. Breaks your heart. At
Speaker 5: the moment, it's around the thousand children who will go
Speaker 5: without a Christmas present this year, and by the end
Speaker 5: of today, it's nothing but heartbreaking to hear that, and
Speaker 5: a big city like this that five thousand, that's gonna
Speaker 5: be five thousand children. So every little backpack, these Santi packs,
Speaker 5: that this amazing charity packs for VIC kids. Sally and
Speaker 5: all their amazing team, and maybe they've been listening right now.
Speaker 5: She called me last night, Sally from the charities, and
Speaker 5: she was in tears. She said, I feel really embarrassed
Speaker 5: you your listeners are given so much. There's no money,
Speaker 5: she said, literally said, we don't know what else to do.
Speaker 5: So at the moment, just in the last couple of minutes,
Speaker 5: bless you everyone who's donated. And if I know there's
Speaker 5: a lot of generous businesses that listen and support the
Speaker 5: show and what we do. If you can donate in
Speaker 5: any way, that would make such a huge difference. Right now,
Speaker 5: I just remember the money is going straight to these
Speaker 5: little center packs for these kids who if they don't
Speaker 5: get these packs. They're not getting anything. There's nothing under
Speaker 5: the tree for them for this Christmas. So if you can,
Speaker 5: if you want to remain anonymous as well, I know
Speaker 5: some businesses have done that before, that's absolutely great. You
Speaker 5: can email me Christian at Christian O'Connell dot com dot
Speaker 5: au if you want to donate and you want to
Speaker 5: remain anonymous, that's totally understandable'll we totally respect that. So
Speaker 5: this is incredible. So only a couple of minutes ago

Speaker 5: Thank you very much everyone who has responded. Just in
Speaker 5: the last twenty minutes when we had nothing, it's now
Speaker 5: over just over twenty six thousand, six hundred dollars, which
Speaker 5: is incredible. So every single thirty five dollars means that
Speaker 5: one of these well, by the end of the day,
Speaker 5: sadly it will be five thousand kids who won't have
Speaker 5: a Christmas present this year. And these children I've been
Speaker 5: taken into care basically for their safety and wellness. The
Speaker 5: situation is that bad in Melbourne because of what's happened
Speaker 5: in the city over the last couple of years. So
Speaker 5: there's an amazing, very very very small but super powerful
Speaker 5: charity run by some very very kind hearted volunteers like
Speaker 5: Sally who called me Yes Saintiers saying the money's run out.
Speaker 5: They need to get around six thousand of these packs.
Speaker 5: Six thousand packs actually means six thousand children and they've
Speaker 5: run out after sixteen hundred. There's no more money. So
Speaker 5: what you're doing at the moment, the almost thirty thousand
Speaker 5: is everything to that charity, and it really means it's
Speaker 5: everything to those children that you're helping out every single
Speaker 5: thirty five dollars And thank you so much because some
Speaker 5: of you are donating on behalf of your family. I'm

Speaker 5: and here's what the children of Melbourne sadly need in
Speaker 5: their thousands. By the end of the day, it's going
Speaker 5: to be around five thousand children and he'll be placed
Speaker 5: in care for their own safety and wellbeing. And there's
Speaker 5: an amazing charity called Backpacks for vic Kids and sadly
Speaker 5: from that charity, Ramy yester evening in tears. They're trying
Speaker 5: to meet the huge overwhelming demand like they've never had
Speaker 5: it before, of these Santa Packs they call them. It's
Speaker 5: just a child who is in care, in foster care
Speaker 5: or any of the places of care gets a small
Speaker 5: little Christmas gift without that, they're just there are enough resources.
Speaker 5: They're not going to get a Christmas present this year.
Speaker 5: It breaks your heart. So it's going to be around
Speaker 5: five thousand by the end of today. It's thirty five
Speaker 5: dollars to get one of these Santa packs. So every
Speaker 5: thirty five dollars that you can pledge or anywhere near
Speaker 5: it goes to make a huge difference. And I really
Speaker 5: want to say. This is a tiny charity mainly run
Speaker 5: by volunteers like Sally and all the team who are
Speaker 5: listening right now. And they've got a message from Sally
Speaker 5: earlier saying that she was crying so much. Lookn all
Speaker 5: your lovely messages. They'd run out of money yesterday evening
Speaker 5: at five o'clock when she called me, they had no
Speaker 5: more money. There were no more They had enough to
Speaker 5: meet sixteen hundred little gift packs Christmas gift packs with
Speaker 5: these kids when they need about five thousand in total.
Speaker 5: So thank you very much. The place to donate today,
Speaker 5: Whether you want to do it anonymously, whether you're a
Speaker 5: you're a business that would love a couple of free plugs,
Speaker 5: I'm happy to do loads of those tomorrow. Email me
Speaker 5: if it's easy for you. You don't have to have
Speaker 5: your names with it on air, but if you want two,
Speaker 5: Christian at Christian O'Connell dot com dot au. But for
Speaker 5: everybody else who's pledging, however money much it is, please,
Speaker 5: I keep seeing this come up saying I wish it
Speaker 5: could be more. You don't have to say sorry. The
Speaker 5: fact that you're doing anything shows you care. Every thirty
Speaker 5: five dollars right is going to make a difference to
Speaker 5: one child is going to feel a bit less alone
Speaker 5: this Christmas and has something under the tree. You head
Speaker 5: to the Christian o'connells Show dot com dot au. Please
Speaker 5: eave a message all these volunteers that work so hard
Speaker 5: and they see what this is really like. Speaking for myself,
Speaker 5: I live in a bubble well. When I heard about
Speaker 5: the numbers yesterday, five thousand kids, it was heartbreaking. We've
Speaker 5: just got no idea. There's a foster care of family
Speaker 5: who've taken in. They've got nine kids or three different
Speaker 5: families that they've taken in over the last ten days.
Speaker 5: It just breaks it. That's how bad the situation it
Speaker 5: is right now from these kids that are in a
Speaker 5: dangerous situation. So every thirty five dollars it makes a difference.
Speaker 5: Thank you very much to David Collins and the Collins
Speaker 5: family of hoppers crossing from all the kids. Thank you
Speaker 5: very much to the Collins family. Merry Christmas. That's a
Speaker 5: lovely thing to do. Very generous. Debbie Holmes. Two packs
Speaker 5: from my grandsons, Noah and Archie Christian. They love Christmas
Speaker 5: and I know they want for other children to the
Speaker 5: same joy they do. Debbie, bless you. Thank you very much.
Speaker 5: Harper and Charlie Christian. We are two brothers aged eight
Speaker 5: and eleven. We want to spread the joy to one
Speaker 5: kid on Christmas Day. Harper and Charlie, thank you very much,
Speaker 5: your legends. Christian. I was so sad this morning to
Speaker 5: hear of this unbelievable situation. I want to donate some
Speaker 5: money with even a bubble, don't realize how bad it is.
Speaker 5: Out there for a lot of families and their kids.
Speaker 5: Jenny lovely words. Thank you very much, Jack, you've got
Speaker 5: some more you want to thank that we're seeing their messages.
Speaker 6: Thank you to the family Binion. Upon hearing about the
Speaker 6: charity in the car this morning, my kids Ruby and
Speaker 6: Ben wanted to each gift a Centti pack for a
Speaker 6: child to enjoy this Christmas. And thank you to Trish Hammond.
Speaker 6: Tears rolled down my cheeks at the thought of a
Speaker 6: child going without anything on Christmas Day. I'm sorry I
Speaker 6: can only afford one pack, but it's sent with all
Speaker 6: my love.
Speaker 5: One pack is one pack more than that they could
Speaker 5: start yesterday, that they could do yesterday, so honestly they'd
Speaker 5: run out of money. There's no more. So wow, week
Speaker 5: forty five, three hundred and twenty one dollars and it
Speaker 5: was only an hour ago. We start to say what
Speaker 5: we're trying to do. Please keep this going today, okay,
Speaker 5: Please whatever you can give. Every thirty five dollars is
Speaker 5: one less chill child in Melbourne that's going to go
Speaker 5: without a Christmas present this year we'll get something. So
Speaker 5: it's thirty five dollars helps one child in need this Christmas.
Speaker 5: Thank you very much. The place you go to to
Speaker 5: find out more and to donate and leave a message,
Speaker 5: it's the Christian o'connells show dot com dot AU. Oh
Speaker 5: I can really say is thank you very much. Jack
Speaker 5: and I are overwhelmed about an hour ago perhaps who
Speaker 5: was doing the news, and we're actually wondering how it
Speaker 5: was going to go today, because we do know there's
Speaker 5: a reason why this charity is run out of money,
Speaker 5: but not because there's lots of kind art people in
Speaker 5: this city. It's because actually you are also worried about
Speaker 5: the high cost of living and the interest rate rises.
Speaker 5: You're looking after your own families. It's got Christmas coming up,
Speaker 5: and there's summer holidays, and no city has suffered more
Speaker 5: with the pandemic, and there's almost like the second pandemic
Speaker 5: which no one's really talking about, which is families are
Speaker 5: stretched beyond breaking point at the moment trying to just
Speaker 5: meet their basic needs financially. So the money you've raised
Speaker 5: during the last hour is nothing short of unbelievable. That's
Speaker 5: the reason why Sally and all those volunteers are crying
Speaker 5: right now. They had nothing yesterday, even they were just
Speaker 5: running on vapors and wondering what on earth they could
Speaker 5: do to meet the demand. So you've changed literally hundreds
Speaker 5: of kids right now, just in the last hour. So
Speaker 5: who knows where we might be tomorrow with your generosity.
Speaker 5: So tell your friends about it. Go on Facebook, put
Speaker 5: the posts up there, put a link to it. It's
Speaker 5: the Christian O'Connors show dot com dot au. We're back tomorrow.
Speaker 5: Thank you so much. Carl Bryner.
Speaker 4: You're listening to The Christian o'carl Show podcast
