Speaker 2: Notice you can't help but neds. As soon you come

Speaker 2: come in today with good intentions.
Speaker 1: This radio station's front.
Speaker 2: Door broken three weeks.
Speaker 1: Three weeks.
Speaker 2: There's now a sign that says no swiping right, and
Speaker 2: then it's like gaffer tape, guerrilla tape all along, keeping
Speaker 2: it in the open position so that we are not
Speaker 2: either trapped outside the station or inside the station.
Speaker 1: I for one, are proud to work in such a place.
Speaker 2: And again, if we were in the middle of nowhere
Speaker 2: for a tiny community radio station, this is all part
Speaker 2: and parcel. This is let's remind ourselves to the number
Speaker 2: one breakfast show on the number one station.
Speaker 5: I think even a community radio station wouldn't put up
Speaker 5: with three weeks heading into a month of front door, no.
Speaker 2: Front door if you're home just didn't have a front door.
Speaker 2: I know who thinks it get not this place and
Speaker 2: not this place. So I saw one of the engineers
Speaker 2: this morning, I said, why is that still broken?
Speaker 1: Goes waiting for apart from Germany?
Speaker 2: Down right Europe. Sure it's a bit of a haul,
Speaker 2: you know, twenty one hours from here to London. Germany
Speaker 2: is a couple hours less three weeks? How long are
Speaker 2: those German post he's taken to ship it to us?
Speaker 1: Come on Germany.
Speaker 6: They're famously efficient people. They work quickly.
Speaker 2: They're not telling me if your BMW Audie breaks down,
Speaker 2: you're waiting this amount of time for some spark plug.
Speaker 1: It had been quick. Hut.
Speaker 2: I think we should do pay for brad Y to
Speaker 2: go to go it be back by Wednesday.
Speaker 1: With a spare part. He goes to dust Bunnings. Have
Speaker 1: you got this? They've got the equivalent of Bunnings.
Speaker 2: There a little man or lady of Frauline or her
Speaker 2: or take him up and down and goes.
Speaker 7: This is the part you're talking now, open and glass?
Speaker 1: Why don't we even have a German door? Why don't
Speaker 1: I know horseboone douge technique.
Speaker 4: The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 2: Now I'm in deswitching o rio. How was this play
Speaker 2: that you're the play? That's not a play, but that
Speaker 2: is the play on Friday nights.
Speaker 1: Yes, Friday night.
Speaker 5: I thought I was just going to a regular play,
Speaker 5: But after I agree to it, I found out that
Speaker 5: it's actually an experimental interactive performance art.
Speaker 2: Oh okay, so I've been to all these like a
Speaker 2: Faulty Towers thing before. Oh, it's a mercive theater. Well,
Speaker 2: you are fed, but it's it's actors mattresses playing the
Speaker 2: Faulty Towers characters, and you're dining at their restaurant and
Speaker 2: there's calamity and comedy. The food is actually really good.
Speaker 2: But so you're eating, drinking and watching this performance.
Speaker 1: It's actually great.
Speaker 5: This is nothing like that some tacky.
Speaker 1: This was high art, Christian.
Speaker 5: This is a cut above you your Faulty Towers.
Speaker 1: Give us a setting. Where were you someone? It's a mad,
Speaker 1: mad billionaire's house, like.
Speaker 6: The Mona guy. It's a small theater in Carlton.
Speaker 5: There's no stage, there's three or four microphones, and there's
Speaker 5: no actors.
Speaker 6: You just walk in and everybody's got a number of
Speaker 6: numb but envelope.
Speaker 1: What do you mean there's no one there like marshaling
Speaker 1: it or umpiring. There's no one there since it didn't
Speaker 1: need it. No, there was no one at all.
Speaker 5: There were three texts, but there was no performers money.
Speaker 6: I actually don't know who got paid.
Speaker 1: I didn't get anything.
Speaker 6: I had to pay to go to it.
Speaker 1: So are the producers or directors watching this?
Speaker 6: There's no one there. It's just you.
Speaker 1: But what's the stop? You'll going? I cut you bother?
Speaker 1: Just the pub I guess.
Speaker 5: I guess probably we should have had a meeting before
Speaker 5: and just done that instead.
Speaker 1: Your was a Friday night after so how many people
Speaker 1: are there?
Speaker 6: There was probably maybe fifteen twenty max.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that's not many. No, not me.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and there were fifty envelopes dispersed.
Speaker 1: You look around, who's here right now? That's only double
Speaker 1: this yep, yes, yeah, yes, that's so few people.
Speaker 2: And you've got to sustain an hour of entertainment entertaining
Speaker 2: each I should be able to say, actually, that's possible
Speaker 2: three hours Monday to Friday. That's a big on air vote.
Speaker 2: No conference, looks around the team, that's impossible.
Speaker 5: Actually, well, you so you don't know when to start
Speaker 5: or who starts or what goes on. They have instructions
Speaker 5: in the envelope and they tell you you've been given a
Speaker 5: famous apology from history that you have to read out
Speaker 5: word for word when it's your time, and.
Speaker 1: You actually a very good idea. Yeah, it's a cool idea.
Speaker 5: You have to make eye contact with the audience while
Speaker 5: you're reading.
Speaker 6: You can't just be sort of buried in the apology.
Speaker 2: So there's no stage. How are the seats arranged in
Speaker 2: this tiny theater?
Speaker 5: They're just I guess they're like pointed at what would
Speaker 5: be a stage, right, Okay, so it's on the flat, yes,
Speaker 5: And then there's microphones scattered around the you know, around
Speaker 5: the audience. And so I had Kanye West's apology after
Speaker 5: he interrupted Taylor Swim. But you don't know how much
Speaker 5: how much of a performance do I do?
Speaker 1: Like? Am I do?
Speaker 6: I try to do like a Kanye West voice?
Speaker 5: Luckily I opted against doing that. But you don't know
Speaker 5: like a you know, there were men doing women's songs,
Speaker 5: women's sorry apologies, women doing men overall?
Speaker 1: What was this about?
Speaker 2: It was about so if you're the individual parts, what
Speaker 2: are you building together? If each little bit is like
Speaker 2: a brick, what is it? Is it a play? I
Speaker 2: was just a series of like little vignettes that each
Speaker 2: of you perform.
Speaker 6: That's a much better way of saying it. Yes, you're
Speaker 6: all just.
Speaker 1: I've always wanted to say out now now it's funny,
Speaker 1: come today and you've nailed it.
Speaker 2: It's such a great moment. God, I just want to
Speaker 2: take a knee, oh my mum, and going to be
Speaker 2: so proud.
Speaker 1: Never thought i'd get to say vignettes in this country
Speaker 1: as well. Well, most of them probably didn't have the
Speaker 1: second dog whistle.
Speaker 2: Most of the tradeing's listeners right now, I'm like, does
Speaker 2: he mean vinegar?
Speaker 1: So you just go around.
Speaker 5: There is some music playing that builds and builds, but
Speaker 5: that's pretty much all that happens.
Speaker 1: You just everyone just goes Is it good to do
Speaker 1: something different? It was actually, you know what, Otherwise we
Speaker 1: just did the same old stuff. We've got no new
Speaker 1: stories to tell anyone exactly.
Speaker 5: I wouldn't recommend it for a Friday night was not necessarily.
Speaker 5: I would have much rather have done other things with
Speaker 5: my weekend. But on Wednesday night and Tuesday night, mondays.
Speaker 1: No way you'd want to do that. All right, you're
Speaker 1: going back tomorrow night. You've got a seven performance and so.
Speaker 6: For an hour, no intermission, just sort of and you all,
Speaker 6: what was it?
Speaker 1: Big ending? Was there a Christendo?
Speaker 5: So it does build and build. I won't spoil it
Speaker 5: in case anyone wants to go, but it does.
Speaker 1: I tell you what, this ain't no double thumbs up.
Speaker 1: You said you actually yourself, I wouldn't go again.
Speaker 2: Or recommend it you now the inverse just the double
Speaker 2: thumbs down.
Speaker 5: It's not like there are more worldly, more cultured people
Speaker 5: than say us four would love.
Speaker 1: And not listen to this shows.
Speaker 2: It's certainly not making it either exactly, No one if
Speaker 2: you notice one that's going.
Speaker 1: And where do we get these techniques? Ticket tech? Is
Speaker 1: it Live Nations? Same days as the Oasis tickets?
Speaker 2: I scrolled down under Oasis has got an hour of
Speaker 2: made up bollocks.
Speaker 6: Simpletons like us.
Speaker 5: It's probably as our head, but other people would love it.
Speaker 4: The Christian o'connall Show podcast.

Speaker 8: the weather. It's really beautiful and it's such an amazing
Speaker 8: setting there on Circular Key.
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: On the harbor.
Speaker 8: It's the best harbor in the world. I'm sorry, hands
Speaker 8: down is the coble harbor.
Speaker 1: I can't think of any of the head.
Speaker 9: There's Hong Kong, isn't there?
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's Hong Kong. Have they ever been there?
Speaker 9: No?
Speaker 1: Nope, I have.
Speaker 2: Actually I didn't even need to take a photo of it,
Speaker 2: really no, I didn't.
Speaker 1: So actually yeah I was do you know, I was
Speaker 1: too busy.
Speaker 2: We were there for a couple of days when we
Speaker 2: emigrated here. We did it for Hong Kong, and remember
Speaker 2: being too obsessed. We're going to see the Bruce Lee statue.
Speaker 2: We had to get three different taxi rise actually quite
Speaker 2: hard to find.
Speaker 1: And then when I got there, I was so excited.
Speaker 2: I was telling the kids about the history Bruce Lee,
Speaker 2: his impact stall today and it was being renovated, so
Speaker 2: it was completely behind scaffolding.
Speaker 1: Came very close to tears, and.
Speaker 2: We were not in the like a tourist area where
Speaker 2: you could wander.
Speaker 1: It was trying to flag down taxi. It's in a
Speaker 1: different language.
Speaker 2: It was a long trek there, and a real longer
Speaker 2: quiet tripped back.
Speaker 5: In best case scenario there for the girls, what are they?
Speaker 5: What are they getting out of that?
Speaker 2: That was actually said later on that night when the
Speaker 2: lights went out. It should have been something went pilgrim.
Speaker 2: Sometimes there are journeys need to take it to a
Speaker 2: heavy scaffold. Bruce See, it's like some fingerticks go out,
Speaker 2: just like I just jump up there in my five
Speaker 2: You know I've come back another year when he's.
Speaker 1: All shiny and clean, BRUCEI league, I think you, I said,
Speaker 1: he came very close to ripping the scaffold World's Greatest Harbor. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's so good.
Speaker 8: And we're there on the harbor circular cave, really really lovely.
Speaker 8: But I ran into a friend I hadn't seen in years,
Speaker 8: and that doesn't happen very often because of mobile phone.
Speaker 8: So we're standing there and I look across and there's
Speaker 8: my friend from university. I hadn't seen it for fifteen
Speaker 8: twenty one years, and it was just wonderful to see
Speaker 8: someone you hadn't seen.
Speaker 1: For so right.
Speaker 2: You don't get chance encounters with old friends anymore. It
Speaker 2: has to be pre arranged. And it's hard to evement
Speaker 2: see mates.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it really is.
Speaker 8: And we caught up like she last time I saw
Speaker 8: her was in Berlin where she was she'd opened a.
Speaker 2: Se or something. The only time I've seen a Berlin
Speaker 2: encounter is an adjacent Bahr movie. It was John Lecarr.
Speaker 6: Spy movie I Saved Your Eyes Berlin.
Speaker 1: And here we are in Well.
Speaker 8: I was in a suit, I was in my you know,
Speaker 8: black bird bond. I feel kind of bondish. But she
Speaker 8: was there with her husband from Germany likely cover. Yeah,
Speaker 8: Fabian who came from the the part over.
Speaker 9: Yes, the door.
Speaker 1: Come on come on France.
Speaker 8: He grew up in the Bavarian Alps. That is beautiful,
Speaker 8: isn't amazing? I was one of the favorite outs of
Speaker 8: the in the world. The Bavarian Alps are the out,
Speaker 8: the Swiss.
Speaker 1: Hubbo, British health the out world.
Speaker 8: But it was just nice to be also kid for
Speaker 8: a because it's been a it's been a hard few weeks,
Speaker 8: so it was nice that we could get to Sydney
Speaker 8: and have a really nice time. Bonnie sister flew down
Speaker 8: from Sydney. It was a real kind of operation.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, that's an expensive babysit. Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 2: go on, and I wouldn't go on a task and find.
Speaker 1: A bit of city.
Speaker 2: But you can hire babysit as local flying someone in
Speaker 2: his part, isn't it we covering your expenses?
Speaker 1: All right? Great, well I'm coming from.
Speaker 8: Sick There'll be a car waiting for you Germany. But
Speaker 8: it was great And then we got back yesterday. We
Speaker 8: missed the kids a lot. It's funny. On the plane
Speaker 8: flight to Sydney, we were looking at photos of the
Speaker 8: kids because we missed them.
Speaker 1: It's crazy.
Speaker 2: My wife and I used to have this pat like look. Okay,
Speaker 2: it's rare that we get time away from the kids. So,
Speaker 2: you know, unless there's anything new to talk about them,
Speaker 2: let's just leave it now. See if we can get
Speaker 2: through an hour or two within seven minutes, you know,
Speaker 2: Oh god, do you think they're going to be okay?
Speaker 8: Yeah, so that was really nice. And then on the
Speaker 8: way back, we're waiting just for our bags. You know
Speaker 8: what I was thinking.
Speaker 2: Soulburn Airport is a I'm sorry, but a nightmare airport
Speaker 2: to lander, whether it's domestic or international, getting your bags
Speaker 2: or the worst thing is if you try to travel
Speaker 2: light and just not have a bag. And then we go,
Speaker 2: we're filling the camp in today, so you're going to
Speaker 2: check that.
Speaker 1: No no, no, no no.
Speaker 2: No no no no no no no no, check me
Speaker 2: in Joan't put me in there, put me in hold.
Speaker 1: That's at least another hour or two. Now.
Speaker 8: We saw a guy doing that. We saw a guy
Speaker 8: as we're getting on the a guy was coming back.
Speaker 8: He was like swimming against the tide, you know, when
Speaker 8: they're trying to get this people coming into the plane,
Speaker 8: and he had a bag that was too big and
Speaker 8: just the stress on his face it was just palpable
Speaker 8: because he knew he had to put that bag under
Speaker 8: the hole, and he knew it was going to be late.
Speaker 2: So yeah, it was one of those stressful times and
Speaker 2: no one knows how to behave a baggage reclaimed.
Speaker 1: No, yes, you'll find an.
Speaker 2: Empty spot okay, right we you think is it clockwise
Speaker 2: or ampty clockwise? Why don't they all have a sign
Speaker 2: that says it's going this constant guessing?
Speaker 1: Is it?
Speaker 2: I think there's someone told me there's a website where
Speaker 2: you type into the search engine which airport you're at
Speaker 2: and let you know whether the belt is clockwase.
Speaker 1: Anyway, what time is you find your empty spot there?
Speaker 2: And that there's no one around you, You've got clear space,
Speaker 2: wide open space to get the bag and then swing
Speaker 2: it behind you as well. And then some old boso
Speaker 2: will always come and stand just slightly in.
Speaker 1: Front of you.
Speaker 2: It's like they're marking you in a footy game. Who

Speaker 2: loads hundreds of thousands, millions, sixty two million shows that
Speaker 2: we've done in the last seven and a half years.
Speaker 2: The big thing we were talking about last week on
Speaker 2: the show is weird things that you believed as a kid.
Speaker 2: Markers that shadows cast by clowns on the sea were
Speaker 2: actually wells.
Speaker 1: Kim believed the airports were.
Speaker 2: In the sky you had to climb a ladder to
Speaker 2: board a plane, which I love is a beautiful sort
Speaker 2: of sampade or daily beautiful image.
Speaker 1: Carla.
Speaker 2: The entire cast of place called lived in the House
Speaker 2: in the in credits Mber the House, they all were
Speaker 2: in our house share they're together in Saint Kilda like
Speaker 2: a lot of backpackers. And Greg I also believe this too.
Speaker 2: Naughty kids could become mannequins. Kelly Christian. When I was
Speaker 2: at the beach and I saw land on the other
Speaker 2: side of the water, I thought I was looking at
Speaker 2: the country's overseas. Pauline that the cemetery was always smack
Speaker 2: bang in the middle of the town because my dad
Speaker 2: told me it was a dead center of whichever town
Speaker 2: we were in. Belenda that I would get ringworm if
Speaker 2: I drew on my hand with a pen.
Speaker 1: My mom would always say to me, because I.
Speaker 2: Still do sometimes now, and just write my hand a lot,
Speaker 2: so that I would actually get cancer. My mom was
Speaker 2: a nurse, so anything that I was interested in doing
Speaker 2: that she didn't like it was always death. Even when
Speaker 2: I said I want to get a skateboard, she I
Speaker 2: believe this. I didn't get a skateboarding him because she
Speaker 2: said that she treated a patient, a child that actually
Speaker 2: had lost his torso and four arms and was actually
Speaker 2: just a head because there was seven You know, you
Speaker 2: don't go the head. It's just a head with no heart,
Speaker 2: and they shoved his heart in his head.
Speaker 1: It's any other day.
Speaker 2: I thought, Hang on a minute, momum, I'm not sure
Speaker 2: that checks out, and I'd have to go and chat
Speaker 2: GPT just a head anyway, So I didn't get that skateboard, Christian,
Speaker 2: I believed in. I used to think that if you
Speaker 2: were driving uphill, you needed to pour the steering real
Speaker 2: forward and going down here to push it away, just
Speaker 2: like in a babe, like a joystick. I used to
Speaker 2: tell my kids to when there when the light was
Speaker 2: on for the McDonald's archers, that it was closed. That's
Speaker 2: worse in the ice cream band making that noise meaning
Speaker 2: it's run out. And this comes from Andrew. Christian lates
Speaker 2: the party. You were talking on the show last week
Speaker 2: about what you believed as a kid. Me and my
Speaker 2: wife both have memories are floating around as children, floating
Speaker 2: down the stairs across the living room. Their memories feel
Speaker 2: so real. Apparently it's our brains confusing and mixing up
Speaker 2: dreams and memories. Do you or any of the team
Speaker 2: have similar memories, chanks Andrew, I do not.
Speaker 1: I do not know. I think Andrew just says more
Speaker 1: about you.
Speaker 2: This is a very unique thing to you and your wife,
Speaker 2: and that maybe ease up on the recreational drugs.
Speaker 4: O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 2: Christian, please to know that I came up with with
Speaker 2: no injuries and a w in my first baseball game

Speaker 2: us on Friday we both managed.
Speaker 1: A run each.
Speaker 2: Sadly, Christian, now the competitive dad has kicked in the challenge.
Speaker 1: Now is get more runs than him? It said, don't
Speaker 1: ruin a good thing. Shame.
Speaker 2: Don't be that nineteen seventies dad. Okay, it's twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2: Be a modern dad, Christian, Thank you very much to
Speaker 2: play an Abba ten minutes ago. Exactly what I needed
Speaker 2: to hear and get me going today after three weeks
Speaker 2: off and my first day back at work. Actually, what
Speaker 2: are the odds you play Abba? And I'm listening to
Speaker 2: the show for the first time in three weeks. I've
Speaker 2: been to Europe. I've been to London where I went
Speaker 2: to see Abba Voyage.
Speaker 9: Lucky thing.

Speaker 2: She was screaming earlier when we were talking on here,
Speaker 2: not unusual for the but used to be screaming at me,
Speaker 2: mainly about something I'm getting wrong or something I'm saying.
Speaker 2: But we were getting the name. The name we thought
Speaker 2: was Arnie. Isn't the name of the second lady in Abba? Tina,
Speaker 2: what's the name?

Speaker 2: Tina was telling me that as part of her interview
Speaker 2: process here, she was asked to cast Abba the movie,
Speaker 2: and I was like, what do you mean? Yeah, apparently
Speaker 2: it's a test to see Howard integrate with the team.
Speaker 2: That's the integration test to join my team is cast
Speaker 2: the Abber movie. I don't understand if it was like
Speaker 2: Springsteen movie or stuff like that. Tina, Please, what was
Speaker 2: your answer that landed you Radio's hottest gig in town
Speaker 2: working on.
Speaker 1: This dream team? How did you cast it? I'm curious.
Speaker 12: Well, I got to choose which biopic I wanted, so
Speaker 12: I chose Abba, so then fat Nitha. I chose Sidney Sweeney,
Speaker 12: which I might change now.
Speaker 2: But why did go called him Sydney Sweeney? Because that
Speaker 2: Jean's advert pretty much we live in an outrage age,
Speaker 2: don't we?
