WEBVTT - MINI: Double Thumbs Up

0:00:01.120 --> 0:00:02.000
<v Speaker 1>Got anything good.

0:00:02.680 --> 0:00:09.120
<v Speaker 2>Hey, this is the Christian O'Connell show podcast.

0:00:10.080 --> 0:00:12.119
<v Speaker 3>Double thumbs up as where me chak Ampat's telling me

0:00:12.119 --> 0:00:14.080
<v Speaker 3>about the things we're into at the moment.

0:00:14.280 --> 0:00:15.960
<v Speaker 4>Patsy, what's it for you? Kicking off the year.

0:00:16.120 --> 0:00:18.759
<v Speaker 5>Watched so much stuff over the break, but one of

0:00:18.800 --> 0:00:21.880
<v Speaker 5>my favorite things was there's a new documentary on the

0:00:21.960 --> 0:00:23.040
<v Speaker 5>Jerry Springer.

0:00:22.680 --> 0:00:27.080
<v Speaker 4>Show, a lot better than I thought it was going

0:00:27.120 --> 0:00:27.200
<v Speaker 4>to be.

0:00:27.400 --> 0:00:32.720
<v Speaker 5>Yeah on Netflix, Jerry Springer fights camera action and it's

0:00:32.960 --> 0:00:39.000
<v Speaker 5>like a background look at this crazy watch and Jerry had.

0:00:38.880 --> 0:00:40.919
<v Speaker 1>Absolutely no editorial control.

0:00:41.000 --> 0:00:43.800
<v Speaker 5>I didn't realize I've had something, but he was just

0:00:43.880 --> 0:00:46.800
<v Speaker 5>merely the host. But it was a real, really deep

0:00:46.840 --> 0:00:50.120
<v Speaker 5>delve into the role of the producers. And you thought

0:00:50.159 --> 0:00:53.319
<v Speaker 5>a lot of it there are actors and pretending, but no,

0:00:53.440 --> 0:00:54.360
<v Speaker 5>that wasn't the case.

0:00:55.200 --> 0:00:57.760
<v Speaker 4>Because we grew up watching that show. There never been

0:00:57.800 --> 0:00:58.560
<v Speaker 4>TV like that.

0:00:58.720 --> 0:01:01.120
<v Speaker 3>It really was like a humans yes, and that was

0:01:01.600 --> 0:01:03.880
<v Speaker 3>do you remember that actual fight?

0:01:04.080 --> 0:01:08.160
<v Speaker 4>You know there should be that big old Yeah, it's great.

0:01:08.520 --> 0:01:09.600
<v Speaker 3>It takes you a back it to a moment in

0:01:09.680 --> 0:01:12.399
<v Speaker 3>time when that used to be huge that shows and

0:01:12.400 --> 0:01:14.040
<v Speaker 3>then that strange bit used to do at the end,

0:01:14.120 --> 0:01:16.520
<v Speaker 3>we try I'm moralize to make us feel a bit

0:01:16.600 --> 0:01:18.080
<v Speaker 3>less grubby about what we've been doing.

0:01:18.880 --> 0:01:21.560
<v Speaker 5>Just bizarre and just you know how the producers it

0:01:21.600 --> 0:01:24.480
<v Speaker 5>was almost like a blood sport coming up with the

0:01:24.840 --> 0:01:28.440
<v Speaker 5>craziest plot for the next show, the.

0:01:28.400 --> 0:01:30.160
<v Speaker 3>Carl and Jackie Oh Show. To be honest, I mean

0:01:30.160 --> 0:01:31.920
<v Speaker 3>probably some of those pauses just moved on to that.

0:01:32.040 --> 0:01:33.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, they probably just watched.

0:01:35.840 --> 0:01:37.040
<v Speaker 4>Every three shows.

0:01:37.480 --> 0:01:41.080
<v Speaker 5>And also just you know, the pursuit for ratings against

0:01:41.240 --> 0:01:43.000
<v Speaker 5>Oprah and and got there.

0:01:43.080 --> 0:01:45.320
<v Speaker 3>In the end of Yeah, Oprah wasn't always this kind

0:01:45.360 --> 0:01:47.520
<v Speaker 3>of Oprah that we know was super soul Sunday. She

0:01:47.640 --> 0:01:49.160
<v Speaker 3>was doing this other kind of freak show.

0:01:49.200 --> 0:01:51.480
<v Speaker 2>She's doing very spring stuff like that.

0:01:51.960 --> 0:01:54.320
<v Speaker 5>Well that was the days of early talk. Yes, it

0:01:54.400 --> 0:01:56.120
<v Speaker 5>was trashy like that until they found their feet.

0:01:56.160 --> 0:01:58.160
<v Speaker 2>So I loved it. But he always had don't you

0:01:58.160 --> 0:01:59.800
<v Speaker 2>think he always had a little bit of like a

0:01:59.880 --> 0:02:01.600
<v Speaker 2>no to the camera that he knew that it was

0:02:01.640 --> 0:02:03.000
<v Speaker 2>a ridiculous show that you come into.

0:02:03.920 --> 0:02:06.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, well yeah, I mean some of the plot lines.

0:02:06.280 --> 0:02:08.960
<v Speaker 5>There was a guy I'm in love with my pony

0:02:09.120 --> 0:02:12.040
<v Speaker 5>or something like like, he was having a relationship.

0:02:11.440 --> 0:02:14.960
<v Speaker 2>And again they're doing that.

0:02:16.040 --> 0:02:18.520
<v Speaker 5>The other thing that I've discovered and I hate to

0:02:18.560 --> 0:02:21.800
<v Speaker 5>admit it, but we got home from holidays. I opened

0:02:21.800 --> 0:02:25.400
<v Speaker 5>the front door and this god almighty foul stench whacked

0:02:25.480 --> 0:02:26.240
<v Speaker 5>us in the face.

0:02:26.600 --> 0:02:28.520
<v Speaker 1>We had a dead rat in the roof.

0:02:29.440 --> 0:02:32.320
<v Speaker 3>St We had one behind the fridge that we didn't

0:02:32.320 --> 0:02:35.239
<v Speaker 3>know been decayn there for weeks, literally just trashing the

0:02:35.240 --> 0:02:36.880
<v Speaker 3>house trying to work out what the smell was.

0:02:36.960 --> 0:02:37.680
<v Speaker 2>Well, this was us.

0:02:38.200 --> 0:02:40.920
<v Speaker 1>Chris pulled the fridge out. There was nothing under the fridge,

0:02:40.919 --> 0:02:43.640
<v Speaker 1>so we cleaned under there. We just couldn't and it

0:02:43.680 --> 0:02:45.920
<v Speaker 1>was weird because it was shifting around. It seemed like

0:02:45.960 --> 0:02:49.320
<v Speaker 1>it was shifting around the house anyway. So it's still

0:02:49.400 --> 0:02:50.679
<v Speaker 1>up there. It's died up there.

0:02:50.760 --> 0:02:53.360
<v Speaker 5>I guess it's a skeleton now, but the smell, and

0:02:53.400 --> 0:02:57.040
<v Speaker 5>I remember Mike Granny used to use this nil odor

0:02:57.520 --> 0:03:01.000
<v Speaker 5>It's this tiny little bottle of it's kind of like

0:03:01.000 --> 0:03:03.160
<v Speaker 5>an antiseptic, but it's a deodoriser.

0:03:03.360 --> 0:03:07.640
<v Speaker 4>What just for den rats? It was a really niche.

0:03:08.919 --> 0:03:10.240
<v Speaker 4>How many of those days shift in.

0:03:10.200 --> 0:03:13.480
<v Speaker 5>A year, But it's brilliant and I thought it's concentrated deodaizer.

0:03:13.560 --> 0:03:16.960
<v Speaker 5>It's about five bucks a bottle at Coles and Woods.

0:03:17.000 --> 0:03:18.520
<v Speaker 3>I could have done with that years ago for it

0:03:18.520 --> 0:03:21.320
<v Speaker 3>when the girls were right in peak teenage years because

0:03:21.320 --> 0:03:24.320
<v Speaker 3>those psroums there used to really FuG because the clothes

0:03:24.360 --> 0:03:25.919
<v Speaker 3>they just festering on the floor.

0:03:26.000 --> 0:03:27.799
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, well this is great, and I thought, of course

0:03:27.840 --> 0:03:29.680
<v Speaker 5>we just I was using bleach and then all you

0:03:29.680 --> 0:03:30.640
<v Speaker 5>could smell was bleach.

0:03:30.720 --> 0:03:32.400
<v Speaker 4>So what is it? What's the replacement smell?

0:03:32.440 --> 0:03:35.440
<v Speaker 5>What is I don't know if I can describe it.

0:03:35.520 --> 0:03:37.880
<v Speaker 5>I want to say it's like a vanilla, but it's

0:03:37.920 --> 0:03:38.560
<v Speaker 5>not a vanilla.

0:03:38.680 --> 0:03:41.920
<v Speaker 2>It's not a masking thing though, it's like trying to

0:03:41.960 --> 0:03:42.880
<v Speaker 2>take away the smell.

0:03:43.000 --> 0:03:44.120
<v Speaker 4>So it's a neutral smell.

0:03:44.280 --> 0:03:47.640
<v Speaker 2>Neutral smell. Right, I've got a great rat story. Maybe

0:03:47.720 --> 0:03:49.480
<v Speaker 2>later on, let's take a break.

0:03:49.520 --> 0:03:51.760
<v Speaker 4>We'll come back with Jack and Ize Double thumbs Up,

0:03:52.880 --> 0:03:56.560
<v Speaker 4>a Christian O'Connell show podcast. We're doing Double thumbs Up.

0:03:56.600 --> 0:03:58.440
<v Speaker 3>This is where we go around the team too about

0:03:58.480 --> 0:03:59.840
<v Speaker 3>the things we're into at the moment.

0:04:00.080 --> 0:04:02.080
<v Speaker 4>Before us, she was Jackie boy, what's the rat story?

0:04:02.320 --> 0:04:04.320
<v Speaker 2>So my in laws were here right up until we

0:04:04.360 --> 0:04:08.240
<v Speaker 2>came back on Monday, and it reached peak hysteria over

0:04:08.280 --> 0:04:11.800
<v Speaker 2>the weekend when I heard yelling from another room like, aha,

0:04:12.720 --> 0:04:15.960
<v Speaker 2>it's my mother in law and I get they're in

0:04:16.000 --> 0:04:19.119
<v Speaker 2>the house so much that I begin to like hide

0:04:19.200 --> 0:04:21.360
<v Speaker 2>in different rooms of my own house to get a

0:04:21.400 --> 0:04:23.159
<v Speaker 2>little bit of a breather. So I didn't. I was like,

0:04:23.240 --> 0:04:25.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm not even going to deal with this. Whatever's going on,

0:04:25.640 --> 0:04:28.200
<v Speaker 2>let them deal with it. Screaming, screaming, and she's going

0:04:28.240 --> 0:04:31.320
<v Speaker 2>the rat, the rat. And Spanish is her first language,

0:04:31.320 --> 0:04:32.120
<v Speaker 2>so she's saying, like.

0:04:32.480 --> 0:04:33.400
<v Speaker 4>Rat on, d on.

0:04:33.720 --> 0:04:36.000
<v Speaker 2>The one thing I can't do is through rat.

0:04:35.720 --> 0:04:38.159
<v Speaker 4>On powerful action. I get it. I know the venezuela,

0:04:38.240 --> 0:04:39.840
<v Speaker 4>but that's very good.

0:04:42.120 --> 0:04:44.280
<v Speaker 2>So I can hear them through the next room and

0:04:44.320 --> 0:04:47.039
<v Speaker 2>they're trying to make the sheets on Cordey's bed and

0:04:47.040 --> 0:04:50.280
<v Speaker 2>they said there's a dead mouse living between his mattress.

0:04:50.480 --> 0:04:55.440
<v Speaker 2>And she said, that is that is discussed on you.

0:04:57.120 --> 0:05:00.679
<v Speaker 2>If that's true, that is very disgusting. See my father

0:05:00.720 --> 0:05:03.000
<v Speaker 2>in law come back from the kitchen with a big

0:05:03.040 --> 0:05:05.720
<v Speaker 2>garbage bag over his hand to come and collect the rat.

0:05:06.440 --> 0:05:09.120
<v Speaker 4>I go in behind him a backup.

0:05:11.120 --> 0:05:12.400
<v Speaker 2>Because he was in there.

0:05:13.880 --> 0:05:14.720
<v Speaker 4>You should have pushed.

0:05:16.040 --> 0:05:19.240
<v Speaker 2>Of the crime. It's his, it's his case. My mother

0:05:19.279 --> 0:05:22.240
<v Speaker 2>in law still yelling the right on, like rocking back

0:05:22.279 --> 0:05:26.120
<v Speaker 2>and forth in the corner. He goes to Grab the

0:05:26.120 --> 0:05:33.719
<v Speaker 2>Dead Mouse and it's Gordie's plastic Rhino toys.

0:05:35.440 --> 0:05:37.560
<v Speaker 3>All right, Jackie boy, what is double thumbs up for you?

0:05:37.640 --> 0:05:39.400
<v Speaker 4>What have you enjoyed over the last couple of weeks?

0:05:39.480 --> 0:05:42.839
<v Speaker 2>I mentioned the Vichy documentary this week it's on Netflix.

0:05:43.040 --> 0:05:43.800
<v Speaker 4>I really like.

0:05:44.200 --> 0:05:49.159
<v Speaker 2>It's called Tim. I'm Tim, and I never cared about

0:05:49.520 --> 0:05:52.839
<v Speaker 2>m electronic dance music. I actually always wondered how it

0:05:52.880 --> 0:05:55.000
<v Speaker 2>was so popular. But this is the first time they

0:05:55.000 --> 0:05:57.080
<v Speaker 2>ever watched a documentary that made me care about it.

0:05:57.160 --> 0:05:59.400
<v Speaker 2>And I care so much about a vachi now and

0:05:59.440 --> 0:06:00.679
<v Speaker 2>we have had of vich.

0:06:00.720 --> 0:06:02.080
<v Speaker 4>It's a really interesting talent.

0:06:02.680 --> 0:06:05.080
<v Speaker 3>Obviously, we like the kind of music which is guitar

0:06:05.200 --> 0:06:07.480
<v Speaker 3>and dramas and we know all that, but yeah, idiom

0:06:07.600 --> 0:06:09.920
<v Speaker 3>music is huge. It brings so many people so much joy.

0:06:09.960 --> 0:06:12.360
<v Speaker 3>And he's a real artist and visionary. He deserves to

0:06:12.400 --> 0:06:13.120
<v Speaker 3>be respected like that.

0:06:13.160 --> 0:06:15.160
<v Speaker 2>And he got to the point where every artist, whether

0:06:15.200 --> 0:06:18.600
<v Speaker 2>they were electronic music or not a cold Play, I

0:06:18.760 --> 0:06:21.320
<v Speaker 2>wanted to work with him because of his talents as

0:06:22.080 --> 0:06:24.839
<v Speaker 2>behind the laptop and as a music producer. Then the

0:06:24.880 --> 0:06:27.680
<v Speaker 2>other thing I really loved is we're watching No Good

0:06:27.800 --> 0:06:31.559
<v Speaker 2>Deed on Netflix, which is Ray Romano and Lisa Kudro.

0:06:32.440 --> 0:06:35.400
<v Speaker 2>They're a married couple and you enjoy it.

0:06:36.000 --> 0:06:39.080
<v Speaker 4>I like it with it was.

0:06:39.080 --> 0:06:45.280
<v Speaker 3>A bit cheesy, Yeah yeah, I thought you I love

0:06:45.320 --> 0:06:45.839
<v Speaker 3>love Ray.

0:06:45.920 --> 0:06:49.360
<v Speaker 4>I didn't. Yeah, I thought that was just lukewarm. Yeah yeah.

0:06:50.080 --> 0:06:52.120
<v Speaker 4>How far are you into it? Are you? Well? He

0:06:52.279 --> 0:06:54.880
<v Speaker 4>the how? I don't want to give too much.

0:06:56.240 --> 0:06:58.119
<v Speaker 2>What's happened to the brother? Has happened to the brother?

0:06:58.480 --> 0:07:00.800
<v Speaker 4>That's where we're right, okay, yeah? Yeah?

0:07:00.800 --> 0:07:01.600
<v Speaker 2>Should we keep watching?

0:07:02.120 --> 0:07:03.640
<v Speaker 4>No? No, no, keep watching, keep watching?

0:07:04.040 --> 0:07:04.919
<v Speaker 2>Want mystery?

0:07:05.160 --> 0:07:06.600
<v Speaker 4>Yeah yeah, you have to get to the end of

0:07:06.640 --> 0:07:07.160
<v Speaker 4>it as well.

0:07:07.680 --> 0:07:09.200
<v Speaker 3>All right, Just a couple of things then from me,

0:07:09.279 --> 0:07:12.240
<v Speaker 3>I read my first great book of the year by

0:07:12.280 --> 0:07:13.200
<v Speaker 3>some month Harvey.

0:07:13.280 --> 0:07:13.800
<v Speaker 4>I read in a.

0:07:13.760 --> 0:07:16.640
<v Speaker 3>Couple of hours. It's a tiny little book, but it's beautiful.

0:07:16.680 --> 0:07:19.200
<v Speaker 3>It's called Orbital. I think it won like the book

0:07:19.240 --> 0:07:21.240
<v Speaker 3>a prize, but it is such a great read. You

0:07:21.280 --> 0:07:23.080
<v Speaker 3>do it in a couple of hours, really really good book.

0:07:23.440 --> 0:07:26.120
<v Speaker 3>My daughter's got it for me for Christmas. Nate Baghetti,

0:07:26.440 --> 0:07:28.280
<v Speaker 3>one of the best storytellers, I would say the best

0:07:28.280 --> 0:07:31.200
<v Speaker 3>storyteller stand up in the world right now, dropped a

0:07:31.200 --> 0:07:35.000
<v Speaker 3>new special on Netflix over Christmas that is outstanding, just

0:07:35.080 --> 0:07:37.520
<v Speaker 3>a masterclass in stand up and storytelling.

0:07:38.000 --> 0:07:38.880
<v Speaker 4>It's a brilliant thing.

0:07:38.880 --> 0:07:42.560
<v Speaker 2>Did you see you know the maps app Ways? Yes,

0:07:42.600 --> 0:07:43.840
<v Speaker 2>he's the voice of Ways.

0:07:44.360 --> 0:07:47.280
<v Speaker 3>Yes, it's got such a great voice, isn't it built

0:07:47.320 --> 0:07:47.800
<v Speaker 3>for comedy?

0:07:47.840 --> 0:07:50.800
<v Speaker 4>So you Delivery and.

0:07:50.720 --> 0:07:54.040
<v Speaker 3>Then two other shows for me as well. There's so

0:07:54.040 --> 0:07:55.800
<v Speaker 3>many great spy shows at the moment. It started a

0:07:55.800 --> 0:07:57.480
<v Speaker 3>couple of years ago with the huge success of an

0:07:57.480 --> 0:08:00.640
<v Speaker 3>outstanding show, Slow Horses, and then David, which I said

0:08:00.680 --> 0:08:02.360
<v Speaker 3>last year I loved, and then there's a new one

0:08:02.400 --> 0:08:04.040
<v Speaker 3>now with Michael Fassbender.

0:08:04.160 --> 0:08:06.920
<v Speaker 4>You've seen many of his films. Is a good actor. Yes,

0:08:07.040 --> 0:08:07.360
<v Speaker 4>that's it.

0:08:07.360 --> 0:08:11.320
<v Speaker 3>He's in something called The Agency that also has Richard Gearing.

0:08:11.800 --> 0:08:15.240
<v Speaker 4>I haven't seen Richard stall looks. I mean he's got

0:08:15.280 --> 0:08:16.160
<v Speaker 4>to be late seventies.

0:08:16.880 --> 0:08:20.080
<v Speaker 3>Oh my god, he still looks amazing. He's still just

0:08:20.120 --> 0:08:22.760
<v Speaker 3>one of the best looking leading men ever. I think

0:08:23.440 --> 0:08:25.440
<v Speaker 3>Richard Gears he's in that, which is very good, and

0:08:25.560 --> 0:08:28.920
<v Speaker 3>Liones is outstanding as well. That's on Apple TV. Love

0:08:29.000 --> 0:08:31.600
<v Speaker 3>that finished the second season last weekend. I thought it

0:08:31.640 --> 0:08:32.160
<v Speaker 3>was brilliant.

0:08:32.480 --> 0:08:35.080
