1
00:00:00,600 --> 00:00:04,280
Speaker 1: Christ Yeah, welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell's show podcast.

2
00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:07,760
Speaker 2: Three ways you can get in touch with the show today.

3
00:00:08,039 --> 00:00:11,480
Speaker 2: Three ways to have your stories on air. So just

4
00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:13,240
Speaker 2: have to listen to more as they go floating by

5
00:00:13,280 --> 00:00:15,600
Speaker 2: in the river of the show. A knock at the door.

6
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:17,720
Speaker 2: What happened next? I don't know whatever it was. Sometimes

7
00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:20,040
Speaker 2: it's a random thing. You don't get random phone calls.

8
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:23,120
Speaker 2: A random knock at the door. What's the story about?

9
00:00:23,120 --> 00:00:23,959
Speaker 2: What happened next?

10
00:00:24,079 --> 00:00:26,240
Speaker 3: We had a guy knock at our door once and

11
00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:29,440
Speaker 3: asked if we had lost in a kidnaper because there

12
00:00:29,480 --> 00:00:31,160
Speaker 3: was an a kidnap walking down the street.

13
00:00:32,080 --> 00:00:33,680
Speaker 2: I don't know how you say, you're just walking down

14
00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:35,200
Speaker 2: the street looking lost.

15
00:00:35,280 --> 00:00:37,440
Speaker 4: No, it's not the street. What part my kidnapper?

16
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:40,279
Speaker 3: I don't think he was a pet though. I think

17
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:42,120
Speaker 3: he was just a wilder kidnap and god, god knows

18
00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:43,159
Speaker 3: how he got into the summers.

19
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:45,879
Speaker 4: Yeah, A knock at the door. What happened next?

20
00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:46,240
Speaker 5: Other?

21
00:00:46,240 --> 00:00:46,440
Speaker 6: Two?

22
00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:48,879
Speaker 2: Phone is today? Then I broke my brothers, whether it's

23
00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:52,080
Speaker 2: an older brother orways the worst thing or a younger brothers.

24
00:00:52,080 --> 00:00:55,800
Speaker 2: But you broke your brother's what And I'm very excited

25
00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 2: about the stories you might have for this one poorly

26
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:02,480
Speaker 2: secured item. I think sometimes you kind of know when

27
00:01:02,560 --> 00:01:05,720
Speaker 2: you haven't secured something one hundred percent, and then maybe

28
00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:07,720
Speaker 2: later on somewhere it just flies off, or it just

29
00:01:07,760 --> 00:01:08,959
Speaker 2: takes off in the rear view mirror.

30
00:01:08,959 --> 00:01:10,759
Speaker 3: But you convince yourself like that, you know what, I'll

31
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:11,360
Speaker 3: drive flower.

32
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:15,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's enough, It's just about enough, all right, pauly

33
00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:19,440
Speaker 2: secured items. I broke my brothers, and your story is

34
00:01:19,480 --> 00:01:21,760
Speaker 2: about a knock at the door, Christian, A knock at

35
00:01:21,800 --> 00:01:23,720
Speaker 2: the door in the middle of the night. I was

36
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:25,800
Speaker 2: heavily pregnant the time my husband got out to find

37
00:01:25,840 --> 00:01:28,319
Speaker 2: it was the police kind of knocking at the door

38
00:01:28,319 --> 00:01:30,080
Speaker 2: to ask if they could run through our flat to

39
00:01:30,160 --> 00:01:32,800
Speaker 2: chase a villain who jumped over.

40
00:01:34,480 --> 00:01:36,680
Speaker 3: I thought the police were just meant to kick down doors.

41
00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:38,199
Speaker 3: And it's in polarchies later.

42
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:40,479
Speaker 2: This was the eighties. I think it was a very

43
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:43,319
Speaker 2: different time, the very polite police. All right, let's take

44
00:01:43,360 --> 00:01:45,880
Speaker 2: some stories now, Carol, welcome to a show. Which one

45
00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 2: then you got a knock at the door, broke my

46
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,320
Speaker 2: brothers or poorly secured items?

47
00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,280
Speaker 7: Knock at the door, So it was probably, I said,

48
00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 7: she seemed It's probably about twenty years ago. I was

49
00:01:54,720 --> 00:01:57,240
Speaker 7: living with my parents and we got to knock at

50
00:01:57,240 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 7: the door about eleven pm and we were all in there,

51
00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:03,680
Speaker 7: so lights were off, there was no activity. Went downstairs,

52
00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,560
Speaker 7: opened the door and there was a life sized cutout

53
00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,639
Speaker 7: of Legaliss and Aragon from Lord of the Rings at

54
00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,120
Speaker 7: our front door. We don't know who dropped it off

55
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:14,720
Speaker 7: to this day, and it was just really strange.

56
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:17,640
Speaker 4: That is spooky, that is odd.

57
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:21,200
Speaker 7: My sister was a fan, but she yeah, she still

58
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,079
Speaker 7: doesn't think it was any of her friends, so I'm

59
00:02:23,120 --> 00:02:23,480
Speaker 7: not sure.

60
00:02:23,639 --> 00:02:25,000
Speaker 3: So did you bring him inside the house and do

61
00:02:25,000 --> 00:02:25,919
Speaker 3: you leave him outside?

62
00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:26,960
Speaker 6: We brought it in.

63
00:02:27,000 --> 00:02:28,640
Speaker 7: I think my sister kept it for a few years,

64
00:02:28,639 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 7: and I don't know. She's moved house a few times,

65
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 7: so I don't know whether she still has them intact

66
00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,160
Speaker 7: or still has them, but yeah, she hung on to

67
00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 7: them for a while.

68
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:37,440
Speaker 2: So all right, so Lord of the Rings, knock at

69
00:02:37,440 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 2: the door, Laud of the Rings were there. That's great, Carol,

72
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:47,720
Speaker 5: Good look.

73
00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:50,560
Speaker 6: I I'm a tradesman, so I had a van and

74
00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:52,320
Speaker 6: I'm did the van, and I thought I'd do the

75
00:02:52,360 --> 00:02:53,240
Speaker 6: right thing and going.

76
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:55,680
Speaker 1: My mother's lawn.

77
00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:58,240
Speaker 6: So I put the lawn mower in the van and

78
00:02:58,320 --> 00:02:59,799
Speaker 6: I secured it, and.

79
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:01,080
Speaker 1: I thought my nuts were pretty good.

80
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,600
Speaker 3: But when I took off at an intersection, the knot

81
00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:06,520
Speaker 3: and down and the lawnmower went backwards and puffed the

82
00:03:06,520 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 3: back window out of the car.

83
00:03:10,680 --> 00:03:12,760
Speaker 4: But the the moa stay in. I didn't fly out

84
00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 4: into the freeway or it was.

85
00:03:15,240 --> 00:03:17,760
Speaker 6: I was quite lucky. I went to the nearby dealership.

86
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:20,160
Speaker 6: They were very good. They put in a new window,

87
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:21,400
Speaker 6: which was very nice of them.

88
00:03:21,440 --> 00:03:22,040
Speaker 5: So I put the.

89
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:25,000
Speaker 1: Moa back in and I thought, oh, yeah, that's right,

90
00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:25,680
Speaker 1: I'll be fine.

91
00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:27,400
Speaker 7: I went off and guess what happened again?

92
00:03:27,560 --> 00:03:29,240
Speaker 4: You're kidding? Not again?

93
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,799
Speaker 6: Yeah, I didn't.

94
00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:36,160
Speaker 4: There's another phone in there. I didn't know my lesson.

95
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:39,320
Speaker 2: How many times have we all said that I did

96
00:03:39,360 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 2: not learn my lesson? So life teaches it to you again.

97
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, So I made sure it was secure.

98
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,440
Speaker 5: The third part I think the.

99
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:50,960
Speaker 2: Times of chance. Yeah, Robert, brilliant story. Thank you very

100
00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:51,600
Speaker 2: much for sharing.

101
00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:52,680
Speaker 6: May thank you all.

102
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:55,440
Speaker 2: Right your stories about poorly secured items. A knock at

103
00:03:55,440 --> 00:03:56,760
Speaker 2: the door and I broke my.

104
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,720
Speaker 4: Brothers The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

105
00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,360
Speaker 2: Your story is about a random knock at the door

106
00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 2: and then what happened next? What was the other side

107
00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 2: of the door. Now, when I say I broke my brothers,

108
00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 2: a lot of you were taken. I guess it's because

109
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:13,440
Speaker 2: we're in Australia. That means a broken bone. We don't

110
00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:14,240
Speaker 2: have to break his nose.

111
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,680
Speaker 4: It's funny. That wasn't the stories I were looking for.

112
00:04:16,720 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 4: But you've gone.

113
00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:21,120
Speaker 2: He means physical bones, No he doesn't. I meant more

114
00:04:21,240 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 2: like Millennium Falcan's roller skates.

115
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:26,760
Speaker 4: I don't mean noses. I'm getting a lot of broken

116
00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:27,520
Speaker 4: noses with us.

117
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:29,520
Speaker 3: I saw one that was Brokey's hair.

118
00:04:29,680 --> 00:04:32,599
Speaker 2: Yes, I've had one an email, but broken head and

119
00:04:32,640 --> 00:04:35,520
Speaker 2: we don't need broken head stories on the show. Millennium

120
00:04:35,560 --> 00:04:39,599
Speaker 2: Falcus roller boots, things not people or bits of people.

121
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:44,920
Speaker 2: Australia come on and poorly secured items. Christian, my boyfriend

122
00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:48,599
Speaker 2: tried to take three mattresses home from the shop.

123
00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:49,760
Speaker 4: See the moment.

124
00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:54,719
Speaker 2: Even one, even one, you're really testing the universe. Three

125
00:04:55,120 --> 00:04:57,960
Speaker 2: it's too too many. Half an hour trip down the

126
00:04:58,040 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 2: highway with these things all Bungee call. We could do

127
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 2: a whole show a record about bungee grun stories onto

128
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:06,480
Speaker 2: his trader on the very last corner.

129
00:05:06,760 --> 00:05:10,400
Speaker 4: We're pulling into a street, high fiving each other when

130
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,440
Speaker 4: they explode.

131
00:05:12,800 --> 00:05:16,440
Speaker 2: Ah, all out like a jack in the box, all

132
00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:21,360
Speaker 2: on to road, not one, not two, three mattresses.

133
00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:23,640
Speaker 4: Kerry, thank you very much his story. Let's get a

134
00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:24,560
Speaker 4: Louis now.

135
00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:29,000
Speaker 5: Well stawmy night, massive crash. It's about to am. So

136
00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:31,440
Speaker 5: me and the ex are sleep in bed.

137
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 6: And massive crash. And we could hear someone who'd.

138
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 5: Broken through the window was walking through the kitchen because

139
00:05:36,320 --> 00:05:39,159
Speaker 5: you could hear the glass crunching. So I rang the police.

140
00:05:39,200 --> 00:05:41,960
Speaker 5: I was heavily pregnant at the time, and they knock

141
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:44,599
Speaker 5: on the door, you know, and so I was the

142
00:05:44,640 --> 00:05:46,640
Speaker 5: one who had to get up and answer the door.

143
00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 5: So I go to the door and the police come through,

144
00:05:48,560 --> 00:05:51,360
Speaker 5: brandishing their guns and everything. They go into the kitchen

145
00:05:51,920 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 5: and then they knock on our door and they go

146
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:57,159
Speaker 5: with secured the intruder. And I was like, oh, thank goodness,

147
00:05:57,200 --> 00:06:00,240
Speaker 5: and they go, yeah, yeah, it was your market umbrella.

148
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:06,839
Speaker 1: Windows. The police and symtims.

149
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,280

150
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:18,400
Speaker 2: as well. Second story about very polite police knocking at

151
00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:19,200

154
00:06:26,839 --> 00:06:29,480
Speaker 2: Mandy, you got a story about a podly secured item.

155
00:06:30,120 --> 00:06:33,880
Speaker 6: Oh I do. Indeed. I was shifting home and had

156
00:06:33,920 --> 00:06:36,919
Speaker 6: a trailer and my sister was in front of me

157
00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:40,280
Speaker 6: and another cow fully loaded. You know, my trailer had

158
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:43,039
Speaker 6: to chest the drawers on it, and I didn't secure

159
00:06:43,080 --> 00:06:47,200
Speaker 6: them very well. And we're driving down the freeway and listen,

160
00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:54,080
