Speaker 1: I've never known. There's probably a name for someone who
Speaker 1: collects pens. There probably is, And none of the.
Speaker 2: So called producers looking to find out that information.
Speaker 8: Then like, looking around, I think we've done enough on pins.
Speaker 2: I guarantee there's people listening right now and they've only
Speaker 2: just touched the iceberg.
Speaker 9: So I've kept this pin. And I was like, do
Speaker 9: I give it back to the cafe? Does it belong
Speaker 9: to someone at the cafe? Did someone drop it? Should
Speaker 9: I leave it here for them?
Speaker 1: But I do the thing first of all, where you
Speaker 1: look around someone's pen? I did. I did, and there
Speaker 1: there was no one else around.
Speaker 9: There was a couple sort of sitting over near the
Speaker 9: counter at the cafe, but no one in the near vicinity.
Speaker 1: So I thought, hang on, I'm a winter for this.

Speaker 2: thing yesterday would good intentions, but sometimes in life there
Speaker 2: is a big difference.
Speaker 1: Between intention and impact. That's my story of yesterday.
Speaker 2: My wife has had been mumbling over the weekend about
Speaker 2: God damn it, Chris, this rug rug? Does it look
Speaker 2: filthy to you? And it was like a gray rug,
Speaker 2: so I can't really see it. But I sometimes think
Speaker 2: that a man's eyes men's eyes DNA wise, I think
Speaker 2: don't see in exact great detail that women's eyes do.
Speaker 2: Agree the amount of time I go, I can't find
Speaker 2: something in the fridge, and I go, where the hell
Speaker 2: is the mayonnaise? And it's just in front of me
Speaker 2: to slightly the left.
Speaker 5: Have you had a boy?
Speaker 1: Look?
Speaker 10: Wow?
Speaker 1: I just didn't. I didn't see that.
Speaker 2: You know, amazing those ork eyes you've got, so I
Speaker 2: couldn't notice that this gray rug is apparently looking a
Speaker 2: bit lack lust year. So I came home, you said,
Speaker 2: I thought, you know what, I'm going to surprise my wife.
Speaker 2: I'm going to clean this bloody rug. You know when
Speaker 2: you start something up. Why did I even bother with this?
Speaker 2: First of all, this rug is about four meters by
Speaker 2: four meters, there's a perfect square. I have to move
Speaker 2: the couch right, the L shaped couch off it by myself, right,
Speaker 2: That's hard work. Then I have to drag it outside
Speaker 2: to the deck.
Speaker 1: Era.
Speaker 2: I thought I'll clean it somehow, So again you try.
Speaker 2: It's had very heavy chain milk.
Speaker 1: Ye, It's like, I'm not how how? How? How do
Speaker 1: you actually moved?
Speaker 5: So they're not meant to be moved.
Speaker 2: So it took at least forty five minutes to get
Speaker 2: it ounce the back deck. And then think, I'll draper
Speaker 2: over the table we've got out there so I can
Speaker 2: beat it with a brewing clean it. Okay, so even
Speaker 2: that's like I could work out. I didn't bother go
Speaker 2: into the gym.
Speaker 1: I was like the court.
Speaker 2: The muscle's being burnt here. Joe Rogan needs to get
Speaker 2: rugs in his gym. So I get it all on.
Speaker 2: I get a broom, start whacking it again. Dust is
Speaker 2: coming off, and I thought, do you know what She's right?
Speaker 2: This is a dirty ass rug I know I do.
Speaker 2: I'll get the garden hose out, put some put since
Speaker 2: to me it's ruined it. It's world pats and again
Speaker 2: my eyes. I didn't see it as wood. Do you
Speaker 2: know what fabric? I saw it as ruggy.

Speaker 5: Wait? So what has it?
Speaker 1: What?
Speaker 2: I put morning Fresh like all over it, you know,

Speaker 2: like bubbling up and I'm like, oh, oh my god,
Speaker 2: I'm looking at my watch going she's backing back to it.
Speaker 2: Oh god, it's like going all over the wooden deck,

Speaker 2: No, once it's tried out, the thing is even the
Speaker 2: smoking right. I let the dog out right half four
Speaker 2: That rug is still soaking wet. Yes, I don't think

Speaker 2: in two thousand and one. It was pre that everything
Speaker 2: that drives our lives now. So they were like, oh
Speaker 2: my god, it's an old fashioned one.
Speaker 1: That means it's gonna be so slow. But they loved it.
Speaker 8: And then I reckon movies back then they actually look
Speaker 8: better than they did now.

Speaker 8: It's jeans any time you have to because you then
Speaker 8: you have to take your shoes off, the shoes coming off. Yes,

Speaker 1: These Oh is that what that is? Yes?
Speaker 2: Oh my god, thank you very much radio for the intelligence.

Speaker 2: to every break. Now explain stuff.
Speaker 1: You know. You know we're going national next year, Yes.
Speaker 5: I do.
Speaker 6: Apparently there's these colored perspects but that they've put up
Speaker 6: there like on sound barrier, to make it look.
Speaker 7: A bit prettier than just a cement wall.
Speaker 6: Right, But when the sun hits it at a certain angle,
Speaker 6: usually on the afternoon peak, it is absolutely blinded, absolutely blinding.
Speaker 6: And I don't know if the wonderful engineers who designed
Speaker 6: it possibly maybe full that that could have been even
Speaker 6: potentially a risk of happening.
Speaker 7: But it just you're white lines. You can't see.
Speaker 2: To Caitlin', you're getting a lot of sort of sign
Speaker 2: language at the moment.
Speaker 1: Are you agreeing or are we in distress?
Speaker 13: This is the best thing that makes you go grow
Speaker 13: because I experienced it every single day and I had
Speaker 13: the exact same sort.
Speaker 1: Have you used this.
Speaker 2: It's called a pane it's called that I have been
Speaker 2: saying it right the west Gate and it's an arterial
Speaker 2: that takes you guess what guys out west because listens
Speaker 2: in Bella horizon k or Pornio won't understand west.
Speaker 1: And it is what is it some sort of giant reflection.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 13: So there's these big panels that shoot off in like
Speaker 13: a you know, I don't know, forty five degree angle.
Speaker 13: But when the sun hits them of the afternoon, it
Speaker 13: then reflects into your eyes and it's like you know,
Speaker 13: you know when you go past a fence and the
Speaker 13: like right, it's exact same, and it's so difficult.
Speaker 1: What do you think it is to try and sprits
Speaker 1: the pace up?
Speaker 13: It is it's trying to make what's.
Speaker 1: Wrong with nice garden?
Speaker 2: Trenis some ivy or some vines? Yes, something, make an
Speaker 2: aerial winery over the west cake. You know, there's lights,
Speaker 2: leady fingumes going into the grapes.
Speaker 9: There's these other things called sunglasses too that you can wear.
Speaker 2: It's something could dip down from the roof of your car. Yeah, advisor,
Speaker 2: And if you're listening around the world, that's something that
Speaker 2: blocks out the sun into your eyes, doesn't work.
Speaker 7: Does it, Caitlin?
Speaker 13: Like nothing, nothing beats it. It's horrific and it goes
Speaker 13: for about thirty seconds.
Speaker 7: It like penetrates your brain.
Speaker 2: All those hillbillies that need to go out that way,
Speaker 2: they've only got a couple of cells in there, so
Speaker 2: please easy, stop penetrating the mines of the waste gatiums.
Speaker 6: I don't know why out out east that sort of
Speaker 6: corridor you always have the prettiest walls and the most
Speaker 6: logic for.
Speaker 2: Some real beautiful I always think it's like driving into
Speaker 2: Paris and driving straight to the louver.
Speaker 1: The money. Look at the culture.
Speaker 6: It's like these have come from some city that didn't
Speaker 6: want them. I'll give them to Melbourne's where they won't complain.
Speaker 8: You know at night, those new SUV's, I think it's
Speaker 8: a lot of Holden and Masdas whatever they normally only
Speaker 8: want for like fog.
Speaker 1: But you're right, they use them throughout the days. Really dangerous.
Speaker 8: And if you're at like a normal car Heart and
Speaker 8: they're in an suv, it's exactly it's.
Speaker 1: Bad, Max.
Speaker 2: You're being mowed down. Yeah, it's really bad. Something the dentist, Yes, Alex,

Speaker 2: then slow the way down to seventy Why why?
Speaker 1: Why? Why? Why?
Speaker 2: Christian things are made me go girl? Well, my wife

Speaker 2: a tin, the off cuts, some slicing.
Speaker 1: I mean, the ben is two steps away. Chris, You're
Speaker 1: lucky she's making you.

Speaker 2: person you clear up all their mess.
Speaker 1: Yes, and that's a fair system.
Speaker 5: Yes, you get all rights to do whatever you want to.
Speaker 5: That cashion it can be a mess.
Speaker 2: Yes, what it is when I cook it is destroyed.
Speaker 2: It's like Dexter's that murder scene in there. Christian things
Speaker 2: made me good girl is when they ask mostly with
Speaker 2: card saying you weren't home, but I was home and
Speaker 2: you have to go and pick up your parcel. Christian
Speaker 2: in fact that no one and I mean no one
Speaker 2: at my work can change toilet loo roll.
Speaker 8: That is such a good point. How do you it's
Speaker 8: always on top?
Speaker 1: Where are they kept here?
Speaker 8: They are kept in the where all the books and
Speaker 8: stuff are, but they need to be in the toilet.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I know that's crazy because what you need to
Speaker 5: have a couple I was reloaded.
Speaker 1: Yes, yeah, And this is a life hack hit. Never
Speaker 1: use a public toilet without checking.
Speaker 2: And there's a read away away and you learn the
Speaker 2: hard way before you sit down. If you are sitting down,
Speaker 2: check that there's enough ammo in the pipe.
Speaker 1: Always always didn't. Yes you have I just went.
Speaker 9: I just went into toilet before and the light wasn't on,
Speaker 9: and I thought, oh, the light would come on automatically.
Speaker 2: But no, this is the shoddiest radio station that you're watching.
Speaker 2: There's the door toket in and out of work right now.
Speaker 2: That's gaffer taped open like white, just white white open.
Speaker 5: We're so honorable.
Speaker 2: And one of the engineers, Bacon, goes to me yesterday him,
Speaker 2: did you slam the doors?
Speaker 1: What is he doing the show?
Speaker 2: Why would I be forcibly closing the door to what
Speaker 2: tramp me and the team in.
Speaker 1: I went, I've got better things to do than play
Speaker 1: around with the doors because stuck it, am and he
Speaker 1: went on.
Speaker 2: Anyway, off gaffer take to open now and that's not
Speaker 2: fixing it.
Speaker 1: It looks terrible.
Speaker 2: We can have Phil Night coming in to invest money
Speaker 2: into the station show and he's a gaffer tape open
Speaker 2: door Alex.
Speaker 8: Also, you have to be careful with the toilet light
Speaker 8: because sometimes if you're in there doing your business, someone
Speaker 8: on the team who will remain nameless will come in
Speaker 8: and I know.
Speaker 2: Who you're talking about. It's really it's actually chardish, but
Speaker 2: great fun.
Speaker 1: The number one. We don't need the detail toilet.
Speaker 7: How do you know where you're aiming?
Speaker 1: Well luckily, oh no, no, I had enough.
Speaker 2: Come on, come on back to the west Gate this
Speaker 2: morning there was no loo roll in the toilet at
Speaker 2: Home Run, so you have to go and do that
Speaker 2: wardle and there was no no toilet rong. I actually

Speaker 1: Bumps.

Speaker 2: a call them out be explain to them the greatest song,
Speaker 2: which is normally in excess, Never Tear Us Apart, isn't
Speaker 2: even a top ten song. But I also point out
Speaker 2: how A Stairway to Heaven has never been a top
Speaker 2: three all time song and keeps coming in at seventeen
Speaker 2: behind the the vinyls at sixteen, and it is sacrilegious

Speaker 2: One of you is looking for love and a missed connection.
Speaker 1: This is Lisa.
Speaker 2: She emailed me over the weekend about a dad that
Speaker 2: she met at the airport in Sydney.
Speaker 1: Both of them were flying back to Melbourne where they live.
Speaker 1: Red Cap Dad.
Speaker 17: Hey, Christian, I'm Lisa, the girl who's looking for the
Speaker 17: Red Cap Dad. We met last Wednesday, the first of
Speaker 17: October at Sydney Airport. I was waiting to board a
Speaker 17: two tim flight back to Melbourne joke five one nine.
Speaker 17: Just as I was about to introduce myself and offer
Speaker 17: him my phone, but I got called over to have
Speaker 17: my luggage way.
Speaker 1: I wrote out my.
Speaker 17: Details and plan to give them to him at the
Speaker 17: luggage carousel, but by the time I got there, he
Speaker 17: had gone. He's probably in his early thirties. He was
Speaker 17: wearing gray trackies. He had black hair, dark beard, and
Speaker 17: tattoos on his hands. I haven't been on a dating
Speaker 17: over eight years, and my friends are always saying the
Speaker 17: best way to meet someone is organically. That was the
Speaker 17: perfect chance and I blew it. So if he's listening,
Speaker 17: or if anyone knows him, could you please contact Christian.
Speaker 17: I would love to catch up with him for a
Speaker 17: drink sometime. Can you help me find the red Cap Dad?
Speaker 2: Well, yesterday we shared lis plea and we haven't found
Speaker 2: him yet yet. But it's day two in the search
Speaker 2: for Red Cap Dad. I am confident we're going to
Speaker 2: track this guy down, Red Cap Dad. There are so
Speaker 2: many people listening right now. If you're a dad in
Speaker 2: your thirties and you like to wear a red cap,
Speaker 2: your mates will know your mate who is the red
Speaker 2: Cap Dad.
Speaker 8: Yes, there'll be enough connections to a Redcap Dad surely
Speaker 8: that we can find her.
