Speaker 1: Christ Yeah, welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell Show podcast showtime.
Speaker 2: I thought, if it's good enough for the space Station,
Speaker 2: it's good enough for Patsy.
Speaker 3: I really did go to have a sauna.
Speaker 1: Thirty to forty seconds.
Speaker 4: Who are you working for? Will you Wonka?
Speaker 1: Christian O'Connell Show, Gold one O four pinks.
Speaker 4: Good morning, Patsy, morning, Good morning Jackie boy.
Speaker 3: Morning guys.
Speaker 5: How are how is everyone looking forward to their weekend?
Speaker 5: What are you up to this weekend?
Speaker 4: Patty?
Speaker 2: Oh, you know what. We're going on another road trip.
Speaker 2: We're all about the road trip. We're driving to Colac,
Speaker 2: which is a lovely Southwestern regional town. I'm taking my
Speaker 2: dad because there is an antique truck show on and
Speaker 2: he used to drive trucks, and this is right.
Speaker 3: So you are how old is an antique truck forties
Speaker 3: fifty sixties, So there's not the old big shiny one.
Speaker 5: Yes, theron bumper, big wheel, so you all go into
Speaker 5: that has already been trained to.
Speaker 2: No, she's got ballet, so it would just be dad,
Speaker 2: mum and I.
Speaker 4: Probably lit road tribut Yeah, what are you up to
Speaker 4: this weekend? Jackie boy?
Speaker 3: Did you get this bank and I go into the
Speaker 3: Comedy Festival on Sunday to a mid day matinee show.
Speaker 4: Great idea. I love it. I love the great idea.
Speaker 3: I have never seen a stand up show. Yeah it's
Speaker 3: Daniel Kitson.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, Oh yeah, wow, I've got I've got
Speaker 4: tickets to go and see him. But he's doing a
Speaker 4: I think he's also doing a later one. I say later.
Speaker 4: I think it's like final six o'clock.
Speaker 3: Yeah. He was a cult figure when I was at
Speaker 3: the Comedy Festival, and I just got charmed by the
Speaker 3: idea of him doing a Sunday matinee show. That's my
Speaker 3: kind of time.
Speaker 2: It's a dilemma, though, do you eat before or after
Speaker 2: the show, because it's used to go.
Speaker 3: To breakfast beforehand. Yeah, my sister's coming and look after Gordy,
Speaker 3: so we're going to take the whole morning off. Actually,
Speaker 3: as we started to book things in like if we
Speaker 3: go to a movie together or a comedy show that
Speaker 3: goes for an hour and we book a babysitter, we
Speaker 3: like add a bit of fat on the back both
Speaker 3: ends of it. So my sister's coming at nine and
Speaker 3: then leaving at two pm so that we can go
Speaker 3: to a one hour show at midday.
Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely, that's what we have to do. Well done,
Speaker 4: you're already realizing what that buffer is probably the most
Speaker 4: important part of that whole thing to get because it's
Speaker 4: because it's the first time, probably in a couple of
Speaker 4: days or a week, you two have actually just get
Speaker 4: to hung out and speak to each other as grown
Speaker 4: nuts rather than some transactional thing where it's almost like
Speaker 4: you're running a small business together. Have you done that?
Speaker 4: By name? Did you send that after so and so?
Speaker 5: All you all you talk is like that, isn't it?
Speaker 5: So when you're out of the mat, you actually like
Speaker 5: look at each other for first time a week and go, hello, stranger,
Speaker 5: how are you?
Speaker 6: What?
Speaker 4: I know?
Speaker 5: In double thumbs up, which you are about to start
Speaker 5: in a minute. You've also been to see a couple
Speaker 5: of stand up shows. I how do you feel about
Speaker 5: actually going to be made to laugh at the mid day?
Speaker 3: Do you think you're going to be in a funny
Speaker 3: great question. Yes, it's very it's very much the nighttime
Speaker 3: thing going to see the comedy, going to see comedy.
Speaker 3: But I'll say this when we're in Edinburgh, which is
Speaker 3: the best comedy festival in the world gets the best
Speaker 3: comedy festival in the world. We they've got shows all
Speaker 3: hours of the day, so you can wake up in
Speaker 3: the morning and after breakfast you can go and see
Speaker 3: a comedy show. Or we were still seeing stuff at
Speaker 3: one o'clock in the morning.
Speaker 5: I remember going to do I've done Edinburgh for three
Speaker 5: years and my favorite of the time spot was half five.
Speaker 5: I could finish that show by seven o'clock and guart
Speaker 5: for dinner. It was amazing early to bend. Yeah, I
Speaker 5: remember seeing Stuart Lee. It was an amazing comedian. I
Speaker 5: think he's coming here next year to the comedy Festival, right,
Speaker 5: he should always do three o'clock in the afternoon, and
Speaker 5: for first half an hour it takes people a bit
Speaker 5: of getting used to laughing in the afternoon. Then the
Speaker 5: last half an hour he'd absolutely stormed.
Speaker 4: But the first half and hour people were a bit
Speaker 4: like not quite sure how to behave at comedy gig
Speaker 4: in the middle of the day.
Speaker 3: You know what, I think will make a difference. If
Speaker 3: there's natural light coming through into that room, that will
Speaker 3: get off. But if it's completely dark you could probably
Speaker 3: trick yourself in thime.
Speaker 5: Go and see Daniel Kitson though he's won the best
Speaker 5: stand ups she'll ever see. All right after this Double
Speaker 5: thumbs Up, which only about me, Jack and Bats, You're
Speaker 5: into this.
Speaker 1: Week the Christian O'Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 5: Every Friday on the show is someone called Double thumbs Up.
Speaker 5: We go around the team met Jack Abats telling about
Speaker 5: the things we're into this week. Patsy is the queen
Speaker 5: of this feature. Patsy, what's it for you this week?
Speaker 4: Mate?
Speaker 2: I think it would be fitting for me this week
Speaker 2: to tell you what I'm going to do this weekend.
Speaker 2: I'll be going across to YouTube and I will be
Speaker 2: looking at all.
Speaker 4: Is that the language you use to go across to YouTube?
Speaker 4: Going across to New.
Speaker 2: Zealand, catch a plane to YouTube it going to YouTube Land.
Speaker 2: I'm going to have a look at all of the
Speaker 2: classic Doug mulray TV shows. News came through overnight that
Speaker 2: he has passed his seventy one He was at Yeah,
Speaker 2: absolute legend broadcaster and just really a groundbreaker of his time.
Speaker 2: He was on three AW in the seventies and then
Speaker 2: moved to Sydney the old Triple J and then across
Speaker 2: to Triple M and just sealing hots.
Speaker 4: Huge loss to people. When I first moved to everyone
Speaker 4: kept mentioning Doug mulray and to look him up and
Speaker 4: see what he did on the radio and on TV
Speaker 4: here as well for being a real pioneer and groundbreaking
Speaker 4: broadcastering incredibly talented. Love people.
Speaker 5: When you meet people used to listen to him, they
Speaker 5: still talk about him as if they'd heard him last week.
Speaker 5: Which is it said so much about someone who is
Speaker 5: bigger than just being a radio DJ.
Speaker 2: Exactly, And that's what his style of radio was. He
Speaker 2: was he was different. He wasn't afraid to do his
Speaker 2: style of radio. And that's the thing about it. It
Speaker 2: doesn't matter how old all these skits are, they're still
Speaker 2: as fresh as the day they were done. He was
Speaker 2: just he was amazing. I loved watching him and listening
Speaker 2: to him growing up. So if you have a look
Speaker 2: at YouTube, there's quite a few clips of his very
Speaker 2: short career At Channel nine. Kerry Packer took him off
Speaker 2: air after thirty four minutes because he was playing up.
Speaker 3: He's doing it like a Tonight's show.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I did a late night show. It was brilliant
Speaker 2: and Kerry Packer rang and.
Speaker 4: Thirty four years I didn't know that but the Trailblazer
Speaker 4: on the radio thirty.
Speaker 2: Four minutes, thirty four minutes, Yeah, and he was taken
Speaker 2: off air.
Speaker 3: I want to know what he did.
Speaker 2: Well, the language was a bit dicey, and Kerry didn't
Speaker 2: really and just the content.
Speaker 4: Wouldn't would have been that dicey surely.
Speaker 2: Just the contempt that Dougie had, I think for for
Speaker 2: the execs as well, like he just it was unashamedly
Speaker 2: himself and that's what I loved about him. So have
Speaker 2: a look. There's heaps of stuff. There's stuff about.
Speaker 4: His Yeah, people are listening right now. Upset.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, so too soon. Seventy one vallet to Dougie.
Speaker 2: And also this week I have found something on face book.
Speaker 2: Jack you will love this because you and be going
Speaker 2: across the Facebook now. It's a short hop you and
Speaker 2: Banker love to make pasta. I found this site pastor
Speaker 2: Grannies that I'm following on facebookund oh they're amazing, these
Speaker 2: Italian women in their nineties. Who oh, they're amazing making
Speaker 2: faster and it's funny. I remember Jamie Oliver episode once
Speaker 2: where he went into this Italian village and try to
Speaker 2: learn all the skills from these Italian mommas and all
Speaker 2: their their recipes and he just he said, I just
Speaker 2: I'll never be as good as these women. These recipes
Speaker 2: have been passed down generations, but they're fascinating to watch,
Speaker 2: and all of them the common theme is, you know,
Speaker 2: my grandmother taught me this film when I was a
Speaker 2: little girl, and oh god, it looks amazing.
Speaker 3: Some of the stuff they not even recipes suggest that
Speaker 3: there's measurements involved, whereas there's a lot of like, oh,
Speaker 3: you just got to.
Speaker 5: They don't have little measuring things we have for a
Speaker 5: teaspooner holping it.
Speaker 4: They pour it in and you're like, is that half
Speaker 4: the bottom of olive oil?
Speaker 2: And you know what impresses me they don't have bowls.
Speaker 2: They do you know, the pasta mix with the egg
Speaker 2: and the flower all on their bench tops. There's no
Speaker 2: bowls at all. They're amazing. You can get a book.
Speaker 2: There is a book pastor Granny's. I've ordered it on
Speaker 2: book Topia, so I can't wait to get it.
Speaker 5: Christian Connell's show podcast Takes a Time and the Time
Speaker 5: Wasted coming up in five minutes time. Right now, we're
Speaker 5: doing a numble thumbs up, well me, Jack and Patsy
Speaker 5: talking about the things we're into at the moment, the
Speaker 5: sweet Jackie Boy, what's it for you?
Speaker 3: Were talking about the Comedy Festival earlier this morning and
Speaker 3: I went to see a great up and comer. If
Speaker 3: you're looking for a local land, who's a great up
Speaker 3: and comer at the Comedy Festival this year? I saw
Speaker 3: Fergus Neil last night in his show Furglicious, some genuine
Speaker 3: real laugh out loud.
Speaker 4: I really liked him. And where where's he performing?
Speaker 3: He's performing at Trades Hall in the Efforts Room.
Speaker 4: Awesome. And what else have you liked this week?
Speaker 3: And then our favorite TV show of all time is
Speaker 3: back on Binge Succession season four as hit and I
Speaker 3: actually watched a YouTube clip that was seasons one to
Speaker 3: three recap and went for over half an hour. This
Speaker 3: guy sits down and essentially takes you through all the bad.
Speaker 5: If this sounds intense, it's not. It's just someone like
Speaker 5: Game of Thrones. There's some of these big TV shows
Speaker 5: that's so well made, like I guess a classic novel
Speaker 5: where there's a lot of characters going on, it actually
Speaker 5: demands a little bit of work.
Speaker 4: Game of Thrones. She's been like that, and I like
Speaker 4: that about it.
Speaker 5: There are some TV shows she's put on and watch
Speaker 5: it and that's all the relationship is up popcorn, that's
Speaker 5: and that's great. But some shows you go you actually
Speaker 5: also have a refresher course, like.
Speaker 3: As Shakespearean dry You've got to remember all the characters
Speaker 3: in the family. But it's worth I think that it's
Speaker 3: worth the mental bandwidth to put into it because it's
Speaker 3: such a.
Speaker 4: Happen Have we ever seen a TV show? Right?
Speaker 5: And we can't recommend this enough. This is the start
Speaker 5: of season three, which is going to be the last one, right,
Speaker 5: And there's a reason why everyone's raving about it. Do
Speaker 5: you have a favor? Go back and watch it. It
Speaker 5: is the most despicable family.
Speaker 3: Yes, everybody in the show is unlikable.
Speaker 5: And you credit always a bit like the Murdocks. You
Speaker 5: can draw your own conclusion about who they're talking about.
Speaker 4: Right. And a friend of mine works for the Empire,
Speaker 4: the real Empire, Yeah, and has said, if you've seen that,
Speaker 4: it'll go No, No, they've seen it. You would have
Speaker 4: seen it, right, they've watched that.
Speaker 3: Watch it.
Speaker 5: But it is so well observed and you actually don't
Speaker 5: like any of the characters. Do you know, they're all vile,
Speaker 5: but there's something mesmerizing about watching how they behave. It's
Speaker 5: beautifully shot. It's like a work of art sometimes. Yeah,
Speaker 5: Succession is very very good. The other TV show that
Speaker 5: came about this week and we were talking about it
Speaker 5: two days ago. For the first time ever this here
Speaker 5: in Australia. It's been running for about ten years.
Speaker 4: They're doing various very remote areas all over the world, Canada,
Speaker 4: America and I think Norway as well, and I know
Speaker 4: they've done Sweden too. It's called Alone and there are
Speaker 4: ten survival experts and these are people who have jobs,
Speaker 4: but they obviously have a high level of survival skills
Speaker 4: and they are they're with their own about seventy kilos
Speaker 4: of recording equipment and they document their own. There's no
Speaker 4: producers with them. They are dropped off.
Speaker 3: They're probably alone and you have.
Speaker 5: To literally build their own shelter, catch their own food.
Speaker 5: If you don't catch food, you don't eat, you will
Speaker 5: start to break down physically and then mentally. And then
Speaker 5: they've got satellite phones. But whoever's lasts there, whether it's
Speaker 5: six weeks, eight weeks or two weeks, they win a
Speaker 5: lot of money. It's like quarter a million dollars anyway,
Speaker 5: first time over this season Southern Hemisphere. It's in Tasmania.
Speaker 5: Not just that, I just presume they do it. Tasmania
Speaker 5: is a beautiful country, right yep. It is chill even
Speaker 5: in the summer, right, it's chilli there.
Speaker 4: They've done it in the winter, in the middle of
Speaker 4: the winter. The first thing I'll be asking, even if
Speaker 4: I was interested in so are they what season is
Speaker 4: this going to be? When are you filming this? And
Speaker 4: I go, that's the win. We ain't doing it.
Speaker 5: It's so I hope the Tasmanian Tourist Board haven't put
Speaker 5: any money into that film because it looks it looks grim.
Speaker 4: I mean, it's where Game of Thrones.
Speaker 5: They should have just you should have just moved from
Speaker 5: Northern Ireland where they were come to Tasmania. You don't
Speaker 5: need any graphics or special effects.
Speaker 4: Wet, windy, cold.
Speaker 5: Also, i've seen the first two episodes they're up to
Speaker 5: watch on demand on SBS. It's actually very very interesting
Speaker 5: about do you watch it thinking how would you cope?
Speaker 3: What would you You can't help but think would I
Speaker 3: survive even one day?
Speaker 4: The yeah, and I love on.
Speaker 3: This season, so everybody gets to choose ten items that
Speaker 3: they bring for what would you bring? I would bring.
Speaker 3: On some seasons they bring this shovel that's also got
Speaker 3: a blade on the side of.
Speaker 5: The buddings do those? I want one of those, even
Speaker 5: though I've got no reason for it.
Speaker 3: My friend bought one off Facebook market.
Speaker 4: It's like survived a sport, and then we took it
Speaker 4: to a remote area and tried to throw it into trees,
Speaker 4: you know, like axe throwing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so the blake A.
Speaker 4: Wait, you actually did that?
Speaker 3: We did that?
Speaker 4: Yes? Right? I thought you were joking.
Speaker 3: You've got to prepare Christian case this ever comes up.
Speaker 4: A teenage person, an actual adult jack post. You actually
Speaker 4: threw stuff out a tree. But what would you take?
Speaker 4: I would take a couple of books.
Speaker 3: You get.
Speaker 4: Do you know what?
Speaker 2: I read these books?
Speaker 4: Right? I did? And then you can use it for firewood.
Speaker 4: I take nine.
Speaker 3: Books, right, and the firelighter.
Speaker 4: I'd read the nine books and go Do you know
Speaker 4: what I'm done? I reckon I could get through a
Speaker 4: book a day. I'd at least do nine days, even
Speaker 4: if I was starving. I'd need the books.
Speaker 3: You think lou roll as well, how scarce does the
Speaker 3: what they take with them. One lady on this season
Speaker 3: doesn't even take a sleeping bag, which i've You're sleeping.
Speaker 5: In the ground in the winter of Tasmania, and yet
Speaker 5: she's doing really well. Gather some ferns to cowt I
Speaker 5: should just say, right. There are a couple of people
Speaker 5: representing Victoria. One of them is a teacher, and I mean,
Speaker 5: I look, I would never do something like this. But
Speaker 5: if you've signed up for that.
Speaker 4: And you are putting your hand at saying I'm a
Speaker 4: survival expert, I can live off the land.
Speaker 5: With allow this person is every other word is an ever.
Speaker 5: I've never seen someone who hates nature. Hell, this is
Speaker 5: the stupidest thing I've ever done.
Speaker 4: Body.
Speaker 7: And it's raining now, it's everything's damp. I mean, well,
Speaker 7: I'm meant to fish here.
Speaker 3: Even at one point she goes something's.
Speaker 7: Pongy, there's a terrible there's a terrible smell here. It's like, yeah,
Speaker 7: it's nature, it's the land.
Speaker 4: We're a guest on this planet.
Speaker 5: The other thing is at the beginning of the first
Speaker 5: two episodes, there's a warning up there. I wrote this
Speaker 5: down and paused it. This program features trained survival expert.
Speaker 5: Do not attempt this yourself. Now I'm there having my
Speaker 5: Dorito's right and she's in Sautsa.
Speaker 4: Oh, don't worry, I'm not. I'm not watching that thinks
Speaker 4: you know what I'm doing this weekend. I'm going go
Speaker 4: and sleep on the fall in the forest in West Tasmania.
Speaker 4: At no point, who are the bozos? Have they actually
Speaker 4: put that?
Speaker 5: Because someone has tried to do that with no survival skills.
Speaker 5: I think the lady Victoria a little No. You've got
Speaker 5: to watch it. It's on It's on SBS. It's a
Speaker 5: really really interesting show.

Speaker 2: one arm and a slab of beer under the other.
Speaker 2: And he's gone, come in mate. The party continues where

Speaker 19: But actually I ended up getting another job and I
Speaker 19: was leaving anyway. I thought, well, you know what, I've
Speaker 19: got nothing to lose now I'm leaving, so I asked
Speaker 19: her out on the date. She accepted, so we organized
Speaker 19: for a Saturday night to go out for dinner. And
Speaker 19: at the time, I was racing motorcycles and I ended
Speaker 19: up going on the Saturday for practice, and then because
Speaker 19: I was racing on a Sunday and I ended up
Speaker 19: breaking my legs so badly, I ended up in hospital.
Speaker 19: And that was pre mobile phone, so I couldn't rendre
Speaker 19: to cancel, and anyway, she found out, and then I
Speaker 19: ended up coming to the hospital on the Monday, and
Speaker 19: we had pizza for dinner there.
