15
00:00:54,845 --> 00:00:59,444
Speaker 2: women and children? First in the lifeboats? Sarah Jy, our

16
00:00:59,485 --> 00:01:02,325
Speaker 2: magnificent show manager, and I were left stranded at the

17
00:01:02,325 --> 00:01:05,685
Speaker 2: Sydney Airport the other night by these two who decided

18
00:01:05,725 --> 00:01:06,765
Speaker 2: to take an earlier flight.

19
00:01:06,845 --> 00:01:09,084
Speaker 1: I could't believe when I was born in my flight

20
00:01:09,125 --> 00:01:11,244
Speaker 1: that I was booked on the seven thirty one Sunday.

21
00:01:11,325 --> 00:01:13,805
Speaker 1: These two chances, we're hanging around the gate go we

22
00:01:13,885 --> 00:01:15,565
Speaker 1: mastually get on this and I was like, all right,

23
00:01:15,725 --> 00:01:18,605
Speaker 1: where's Pats? And then then there was a lot of awkwardness.

24
00:01:18,605 --> 00:01:19,485
Speaker 1: So where is Pats?

25
00:01:19,525 --> 00:01:19,685
Speaker 3: Where?

26
00:01:20,045 --> 00:01:23,285
Speaker 1: Oh, she's been moved to a later flight at ten PM.

27
00:01:23,285 --> 00:01:25,444
Speaker 1: So I just need to rewhind if you're wondering what's happened.

28
00:01:25,445 --> 00:01:28,525
Speaker 1: And tensions are high right now, and we've got just

29
00:01:28,605 --> 00:01:30,765
Speaker 1: over two weeks left on the year, and it's like

30
00:01:30,805 --> 00:01:33,165
Speaker 1: a band that's been on a very long world tour

31
00:01:33,685 --> 00:01:37,765
Speaker 1: where you know you're not there's tension and cracks already there.

32
00:01:37,765 --> 00:01:42,645
Speaker 1: And what happened Wednesday Tuesday in Sydney was nasty and

33
00:01:42,685 --> 00:01:46,125
Speaker 1: it's your issue to make good repats. So we weren't

34
00:01:46,125 --> 00:01:48,485
Speaker 1: here Tuesday morning and throughout the day, we didn't do

35
00:01:48,565 --> 00:01:51,525
Speaker 1: Tuesday show. We were in Sydney. We all left very

36
00:01:51,565 --> 00:01:53,645
Speaker 1: early Tuesday morning and I want to fly and I

37
00:01:53,725 --> 00:01:56,645
Speaker 1: didn't know planes flying a quarter to six in the morning.

38
00:01:56,845 --> 00:02:01,605
Speaker 1: I thought that they started after quarter to six. And

39
00:02:01,645 --> 00:02:03,645
Speaker 1: so we had a full day filming. We were filming

40
00:02:03,765 --> 00:02:07,325
Speaker 1: a TV advert for the show for next year because

41
00:02:07,365 --> 00:02:09,445
Speaker 1: we're going national from jen next year and so we're

42
00:02:09,445 --> 00:02:12,044
Speaker 1: filming in Sydney and so we were there all day

43
00:02:12,125 --> 00:02:15,085
Speaker 1: and the flight bag was at seven thirty nights, so

44
00:02:15,125 --> 00:02:17,205
Speaker 1: I was when we got to Sydney Airport to come

45
00:02:17,245 --> 00:02:19,645
Speaker 1: back home to Melbourne on Tuesday night, I was getting

46
00:02:19,685 --> 00:02:21,925
Speaker 1: onto a seven thirty flight, and you'll, I don't know

47
00:02:21,925 --> 00:02:24,325
Speaker 1: why they put you on a Jetstar one for eight

48
00:02:24,405 --> 00:02:26,405
Speaker 1: o'clock thirty.

49
00:02:26,445 --> 00:02:27,245
Speaker 3: Actually I do know.

50
00:02:28,045 --> 00:02:30,765
Speaker 1: It's not my business. And how this company, how this

51
00:02:30,845 --> 00:02:36,805
Speaker 1: company allocates resources and looks after what I call major stakeholders.

52
00:02:37,165 --> 00:02:40,085
Speaker 1: But issue with.

53
00:02:40,165 --> 00:02:43,245
Speaker 2: Me dogs in the plane. It's almost like, here's your

54
00:02:43,285 --> 00:02:44,245
Speaker 2: here's your pin pats in.

55
00:02:44,405 --> 00:02:47,925
Speaker 1: You go just shocking at that's what Alex and Rio did. Yeah, okay,

56
00:02:48,125 --> 00:02:50,365
Speaker 1: so how did you two even get on a different airline?

57
00:02:51,005 --> 00:02:54,525
Speaker 3: We know people the optics aren't great that we went

58
00:02:54,565 --> 00:02:56,285
Speaker 3: to the airport together and they.

59
00:02:56,285 --> 00:03:00,525
Speaker 1: Tell me this, did Alex call lambo mate? That is

60
00:03:00,525 --> 00:03:02,725
Speaker 1: now quanto mate? That was my next option.

61
00:03:04,405 --> 00:03:07,525
Speaker 3: Our flight was delayed till ten o'clock, which is a

62
00:03:07,645 --> 00:03:11,205
Speaker 3: very very big delay. Then I've never seen this version

63
00:03:11,245 --> 00:03:14,085
Speaker 3: of Alex. Alex goes into this kind of TV mode

64
00:03:14,485 --> 00:03:16,645
Speaker 3: where he turns on the schmoos and the charm. He

65
00:03:16,765 --> 00:03:19,725
Speaker 3: calls the sort of company, trust people he got, He's

66
00:03:19,765 --> 00:03:22,725
Speaker 3: got people, he knows people, and then he manages to

67
00:03:22,765 --> 00:03:25,445
Speaker 3: get two seats on an earlier flight.

68
00:03:26,645 --> 00:03:32,925
Speaker 1: Sophie's choice. Who did he give that? The two slots? Too? Well?

69
00:03:32,925 --> 00:03:36,725
Speaker 1: One is obviously to himself. Of course, those masks on

70
00:03:36,805 --> 00:03:38,085
Speaker 1: your own face on the plane.

71
00:03:38,565 --> 00:03:41,165
Speaker 3: I say, hey, Patsy Sarah, if you want.

72
00:03:41,285 --> 00:03:44,245
Speaker 1: Alex was there when he kind of protesting from Rio,

73
00:03:44,405 --> 00:03:47,205
Speaker 1: it was there, was there was a crucial detail. Two

74
00:03:47,205 --> 00:03:49,245
Speaker 1: had already checked their bags in. They couldn't get their

75
00:03:49,245 --> 00:03:51,605
Speaker 1: bags off the plane in time to get the plant.

76
00:03:51,725 --> 00:03:53,365
Speaker 1: The next one, miny detail.

77
00:03:53,485 --> 00:03:59,845
Speaker 2: I say, miny details women and children first. Oh no,

78
00:04:00,125 --> 00:04:02,765
Speaker 2: and Rio said, oh, Patson, Sarah, one of you, you know,

79
00:04:02,885 --> 00:04:04,725
Speaker 2: but he didn't mean it because he's kind of looking

80
00:04:04,765 --> 00:04:05,325
Speaker 2: at the floor.

81
00:04:05,525 --> 00:04:09,525
Speaker 3: It was like, we'll stick around, please say do stick around?

82
00:04:09,525 --> 00:04:11,365
Speaker 1: Please? No, no, we don't want to go.

83
00:04:11,405 --> 00:04:13,525
Speaker 3: And as soon as we got to no, you guys go,

84
00:04:13,565 --> 00:04:14,685
Speaker 3: we're like, okay.

85
00:04:15,125 --> 00:04:17,205
Speaker 2: And we did not see them for dust do you

86
00:04:17,325 --> 00:04:18,525
Speaker 2: should have seen them?

87
00:04:18,885 --> 00:04:24,765
Speaker 1: This is horrible, having a really nice bonding experience. I

88
00:04:24,765 --> 00:04:26,605
Speaker 1: can't believe we're going to get to do this next year.

89
00:04:26,645 --> 00:04:29,404
Speaker 1: What a great end to an amazing year. We're lucky

90
00:04:29,484 --> 00:04:31,605
Speaker 1: to have this experience. It's a really nice bonding experience.

91
00:04:31,844 --> 00:04:34,685
Speaker 1: We're all in this TV advert together and then we

92
00:04:34,885 --> 00:04:36,564
Speaker 1: just it all just fell apart from you guys.

93
00:04:37,685 --> 00:04:38,445
Speaker 2: Broke up the bear.

94
00:04:39,565 --> 00:04:44,205
Speaker 1: There's no, they are KOs Ye, there's.

95
00:04:43,964 --> 00:04:46,725
Speaker 3: No point everybody going down with the ship. We need

96
00:04:46,765 --> 00:04:47,724
Speaker 3: to put some people.

97
00:04:49,685 --> 00:04:51,005
Speaker 2: Do you know what time I got home?

98
00:04:51,164 --> 00:04:58,245
Speaker 1: I don't want to know. One twelve o'clock.

99
00:04:58,325 --> 00:05:01,244
Speaker 2: That plane pulled up to that too, and well you

100
00:05:01,284 --> 00:05:04,164
Speaker 2: were tucked in with your little armies and there.

101
00:05:04,284 --> 00:05:06,324
Speaker 1: I was so exhausted I fell asleep on the couch.

102
00:05:06,844 --> 00:05:08,485
Speaker 1: When I woke up, the count the dog was there.

103
00:05:09,804 --> 00:05:14,964
Speaker 1: What happened? Had the game not the place exactly? Now

104
00:05:15,005 --> 00:05:16,964
Speaker 1: there's a part two we need to talk about next

105
00:05:17,044 --> 00:05:19,364
Speaker 1: because one of the team had to break into my

106
00:05:19,445 --> 00:05:26,365
Speaker 1: house to check in on my dog, Christian O'Connell show podcast.

107
00:05:27,765 --> 00:05:30,804
Speaker 1: So the other thing we need to talk about is Tuesday.

108
00:05:31,044 --> 00:05:33,445
Speaker 1: It's about four o'clock during the day filming an a

109
00:05:33,525 --> 00:05:36,685
Speaker 1: random suburb in Sydney that apparently been chosen because it

110
00:05:36,724 --> 00:05:39,484
Speaker 1: was very flat and yet it was the most hilly

111
00:05:39,804 --> 00:05:42,004
Speaker 1: hilly's part of Sydney. We were way above sea level,

112
00:05:42,205 --> 00:05:42,844
Speaker 1: we were high er.

113
00:05:43,404 --> 00:05:46,645
Speaker 3: It's literally called the hills, Yes, Ulcombe Hills.

114
00:05:46,765 --> 00:05:51,044
Speaker 1: It was awful slopey, yeah, Walcombe Hills. And they were like,

115
00:05:51,085 --> 00:05:53,404
Speaker 1: we have to film somewhere where it's very flat. It

116
00:05:53,445 --> 00:05:55,964
Speaker 1: had a slope that entire road a huge gradient and

117
00:05:56,005 --> 00:05:58,525
Speaker 1: also by the way, so we were in Sydney when

118
00:05:58,525 --> 00:06:00,484
Speaker 1: we were filming on Tuesday, it was like thirty three

119
00:06:00,525 --> 00:06:04,765
Speaker 1: degrees and we were filming all day on the.

120
00:06:04,804 --> 00:06:09,325
Speaker 2: Road community it was about three hundred and that is that.

121
00:06:09,445 --> 00:06:12,444
Speaker 1: Huge camera light on me and I just had to

122
00:06:13,325 --> 00:06:15,884
Speaker 1: work in a way I'm not used to. The talking

123
00:06:15,924 --> 00:06:19,044
Speaker 1: and walking is surprisingly tricky. You know, we see people

124
00:06:19,044 --> 00:06:21,124
Speaker 1: do it effortlessly on TV, like Jeremy Claranson does it

125
00:06:21,125 --> 00:06:24,445
Speaker 1: incredibly well. But they were like, can you take four

126
00:06:24,484 --> 00:06:28,205
Speaker 1: steps side, look to the camera, say if you're not

127
00:06:28,245 --> 00:06:31,045
Speaker 1: looking for a radio show, walk two more steps, look

128
00:06:31,085 --> 00:06:33,565
Speaker 1: at the funk camera, and then deliver the next two lines.

129
00:06:34,085 --> 00:06:36,684
Speaker 1: And I was like, I didn't know what the first

130
00:06:37,445 --> 00:06:39,964
Speaker 1: was and I was just thinking, just try best. And

131
00:06:39,964 --> 00:06:41,844
Speaker 1: then they would go, can we just do that again

132
00:06:41,885 --> 00:06:44,604
Speaker 1: this time take two and a half steps, and stuff

133
00:06:44,685 --> 00:06:47,445
Speaker 1: like what human can be programmed like this? We can

134
00:06:47,445 --> 00:06:52,164
Speaker 1: barely do it sat moving and talking. Oh my god,

135
00:06:52,164 --> 00:06:54,365
Speaker 1: that's so tricky. But anyway, I get a message from

136
00:06:54,364 --> 00:06:56,525
Speaker 1: my wife. Now, my wife and daughters are in Dubai

137
00:06:56,565 --> 00:07:00,404
Speaker 1: this week seeing my wife's sister who lives there, and

138
00:07:00,484 --> 00:07:03,284
Speaker 1: about four o'clock. Our time my wife is obviously waking

139
00:07:03,364 --> 00:07:06,645
Speaker 1: up is eight am in Dubai and says you back home?

140
00:07:06,724 --> 00:07:09,925
Speaker 1: And no, no, I told you I'm not until seven thirty flight.

141
00:07:10,325 --> 00:07:12,245
Speaker 1: And suddenly then and they're about to go and we're

142
00:07:12,325 --> 00:07:17,564
Speaker 1: rolling speeding Take nineteen and I see this, woo. I

143
00:07:17,565 --> 00:07:20,085
Speaker 1: don't know the dog, nothing about how are you coping

144
00:07:20,085 --> 00:07:22,365
Speaker 1: in this heat? What's it like working or set where

145
00:07:22,364 --> 00:07:25,765
Speaker 1: there's over fifty crew all staring at you and nothing

146
00:07:25,804 --> 00:07:27,605
Speaker 1: about me? She says, Oh the god the dog Reggie

147
00:07:27,605 --> 00:07:30,925
Speaker 1: would have been alone by it all day. And I said, listen, Tina,

148
00:07:30,925 --> 00:07:32,885
Speaker 1: Liz to produce a Tina there's about ten minutes away

149
00:07:33,125 --> 00:07:35,605
Speaker 1: in Bentley, ask if she'd be kind enough to come around,

150
00:07:35,645 --> 00:07:37,444
Speaker 1: pop in and see the dog. Then I'm like, I

151
00:07:37,445 --> 00:07:41,364
Speaker 1: can't deal with this, Tina, you poor thing. You need

152
00:07:41,405 --> 00:07:43,324
Speaker 1: to pick up the story, Paul, did you know this, Pats,

153
00:07:43,325 --> 00:07:46,884
Speaker 1: Tina went around to my house, broke in, broke in

154
00:07:47,085 --> 00:07:49,645
Speaker 1: to see the cat regg and meet Larry the cat.

155
00:07:49,804 --> 00:07:53,005
Speaker 4: Oh yes, I did get a fraggick text from Sarah

156
00:07:53,005 --> 00:07:56,525
Speaker 4: with your codes to come into your house and one.

157
00:07:56,445 --> 00:07:58,685
Speaker 1: Of four point three. Don't tell anyone.

00:08:11,685 --> 00:08:12,685
Speaker 4: your dog and your cat.

164
00:08:12,845 --> 00:08:14,485
Speaker 1: Thank you so much for doing that. By the way,

165
00:08:14,525 --> 00:08:17,004
Speaker 1: my wife made it really odd, said to Tina, feel

166
00:08:17,005 --> 00:08:18,925
Speaker 1: free to put the TV and make yourself at home

167
00:08:18,965 --> 00:08:21,204
Speaker 1: and just hang around for a couple of hours until

168
00:08:21,285 --> 00:08:24,365
Speaker 1: Christian gets back. Without telling me. Do you imagine if

169
00:08:24,405 --> 00:08:26,285
Speaker 1: like I just keept like, oh my god, it's gonna

170
00:08:26,285 --> 00:08:30,124
Speaker 1: a beer and go to sleep. I'm like, woman, she's

171
00:08:30,165 --> 00:08:35,565
Speaker 1: the first time, Tina. Yeah, just watching math. So make

172
00:08:35,645 --> 00:08:39,285
Speaker 1: yourself at home, you know, because Tina is a very

173
00:08:39,285 --> 00:08:41,325
Speaker 1: proud Greek lady. I was hoping that there'd be some

174
00:08:41,485 --> 00:08:47,604
Speaker 1: sort of on the stove bubbling is it in a

175
00:08:47,725 --> 00:08:50,005
Speaker 1: slow cooker? And spent a cop and oh my god,

176
00:08:50,485 --> 00:08:53,005
Speaker 1: I thought there'd been a life mousaka freshly baked in

177
00:08:53,045 --> 00:08:57,444
Speaker 1: the oven. Nothing, Tina, you left me nothing to be silly.

178
00:08:57,405 --> 00:08:59,005
Speaker 4: I wouldn't even cook for myself.

179
00:08:58,765 --> 00:09:00,725
Speaker 1: That kind of stuff. Is it strange that you just

180
00:09:00,765 --> 00:09:02,724
Speaker 1: had to break in and just snoop around my house.

181
00:09:02,885 --> 00:09:04,605
Speaker 4: It was changed. All the doors were clothed, and I

182
00:09:04,645 --> 00:09:06,165
Speaker 4: was like, oh, do I pete? But I didn't.

183
00:09:08,525 --> 00:09:10,245
Speaker 3: No one tells you this in the job interview, that

184
00:09:10,324 --> 00:09:11,245
Speaker 3: you might actually have to go.

185
00:09:12,725 --> 00:09:15,684
Speaker 1: To break into his house and just pat his cat

186
00:09:15,725 --> 00:09:18,525
Speaker 1: and dog for ten minutes and then leave or hang

187
00:09:18,605 --> 00:09:22,604

188
00:09:22,645 --> 00:09:25,085

189
00:09:25,125 --> 00:09:32,285
Speaker 1: be nice you did to catch up. I was just cooked. Tina,

190
00:09:32,324 --> 00:09:35,405
Speaker 1: why don't we get a takeaway kick back and hang

191
00:09:35,444 --> 00:09:38,205
Speaker 1: out on the couch. She's got your pj's neighbors have

192
00:09:38,204 --> 00:09:41,205
