He's got 0:02:10.639 --> 0:02:13.520 some strange version of a child that would just always 0:02:13.600 --> 0:02:15.880 be seven months or the rest of your life. 0:02:15.919 --> 0:02:17.760 I feel like we're finally used to this version. 0:02:19.040 --> 0:02:21.680 Shame it's like that for the first year. Believe me, 0:02:22.120 --> 0:02:23.120 it gets easier. 0:02:23.560 --> 0:02:27.440 But no, no, it does not get easier. That is 0:02:27.440 --> 0:02:28.919 a light.

It's 0:02:35.760 --> 0:02:37.200 like a different level of computer game. 0:02:37.280 --> 0:02:38.960 Yeah, more complex, that's more difficult. 0:02:39.040 --> 0:02:43.520 Yes, I was even back at office works last night 0:02:43.560 --> 0:02:46.160 with Ruby before today's big English example, because she suddenly 0:02:46.400 --> 0:02:49.600 is the dictionary she had, she's got writing all over it, 0:02:49.680 --> 0:02:54.200 and they think she's because cheating.

We're just in the 0:02:57.840 --> 0:03:00.000 final stretch, the last grace you can't walk in with. 0:03:00.320 --> 0:03:02.680 She's even you know, I said yesterday I bought in 0:03:02.680 --> 0:03:05.079 my brand new label maker. I'd labeled her low lucky pens, 0:03:05.160 --> 0:03:07.680 lucky pans. Those have to come off because they're worried 0:03:07.720 --> 0:03:10.840 that they've got hidden things on the inside. Well, like 0:03:10.880 --> 0:03:15.040 an entire poem. I'm somehow tidy backwards in code. Just 0:03:15.080 --> 0:03:17.040 go into the bathroom, look in the mirror. You'll fine 0:03:17.080 --> 0:03:18.280 words worth poem in there. 0:03:18.680 --> 0:03:20.280 Your daddy wrote your essay for you. 0:03:20.360 --> 0:03:23.400 It's all done the label maker. We'll get that atar. 0:03:25.520 --> 0:03:25.919 What happened you? 0:03:25.960 --> 0:03:28.240 Yeah, that's all right. So she takes she doesn't like 0:03:28.280 --> 0:03:31.359 a sandwich for lunch.

But I've 0:03:35.640 --> 0:03:36.320 been this. 0:03:36.320 --> 0:03:38.400 This lunch box you make is what the rest of 0:03:38.480 --> 0:03:40.480 us would plan for weeks. There's some sort of picnic 0:03:40.520 --> 0:03:41.400 to propose to somebody. 0:03:41.480 --> 0:03:43.440 You still got that cheese and Queen's paste in there. 0:03:43.480 --> 0:03:47.080 No, she's done that for a bit. She's got occasionally 0:03:47.360 --> 0:03:50.720 occasionally with a bit of Queen's paste.

And I said, oh, 0:04:17.920 --> 0:04:19.560 you don't like celery? And she said, you know, I 0:04:19.600 --> 0:04:21.200 don't like celery and you try. 0:04:21.080 --> 0:04:23.600 To like mashed potato in it? Yesterday? 0:04:23.760 --> 0:04:26.520 No, no.

All we found out really was from 0:05:50.920 --> 0:05:52.840 our producers. Jack was about two or three. 0:05:53.200 --> 0:05:56.280 Well there's five here, but you judge how many are 0:05:56.440 --> 0:05:58.640 called fun facts, which is what's at the top of 0:05:58.640 --> 0:06:01.160 the page. The rock band Jet originated from the suburb. 0:06:01.279 --> 0:06:03.440 We started big, great and then it tailed off. 0:06:04.400 --> 0:06:07.280 So far we're having fun. Dingley Village is seven point 0:06:07.360 --> 0:06:08.600 nine come and is squared. 0:06:09.160 --> 0:06:11.719 Yeah, I mean I'm not feeling the fun yet. 0:06:12.360 --> 0:06:16.039 Ten point five thousand people reside in Dingley Village. The 0:06:16.160 --> 0:06:19.400 average age of someone in Dingley Village is forty five 0:06:19.480 --> 0:06:22.200 years old. The local football club is called the Dingley 0:06:22.279 --> 0:06:24.560 Dingoes and that's where we ran dry. 0:06:24.680 --> 0:06:25.080 Yeah. 0:06:25.120 --> 0:06:27.200 So we're asking for you on fun facts about Dingley 0:06:27.240 --> 0:06:29.520 Village or I need five degrees of Dingley Village. When 0:06:29.520 --> 0:06:31.320 we just said five degrees of Dingley Village, we got 0:06:31.320 --> 0:06:34.040 two calls. When we said a million degrees of Dingley Village. 0:06:34.040 --> 0:06:37.240 We've got lots of calls and different stories. Some of 0:06:37.279 --> 0:06:39.719 the emails that came in yesterday after the show and 0:06:39.760 --> 0:06:43.680 about Dingley Village. Christian the late great AFA footballer and 0:06:43.800 --> 0:06:47.000 capsin of Sin killed a football club. Trevor Barker once 0:06:47.120 --> 0:06:50.320 lived in Dingley Village. That's a good one, no idea 0:06:50.360 --> 0:06:52.760 if he ever saw one those UFOs? Yeah right right 0:06:52.760 --> 0:06:55.000 at the end of the show we found Patsy found out. 0:06:55.040 --> 0:06:56.880 So the Westall incident is it known. 0:06:56.760 --> 0:07:00.159 As perhaps yeah, at the Westall School back in I 0:07:00.160 --> 0:07:01.640 say sixty six, it once. 0:07:01.680 --> 0:07:06.080 Nineteen sixty six they saw aliens and apparently it was 0:07:06.080 --> 0:07:08.960 a very serious sighting. But obviously because it was a school, 0:07:09.200 --> 0:07:11.360 it was mainly school kids. So we want to know 0:07:11.400 --> 0:07:14.160 this morning by nine o'clock, can we speak to anyone 0:07:14.160 --> 0:07:17.080 who obviously was like a young kid then a little 0:07:17.120 --> 0:07:21.040 bit older now who saw the UFOs. I do have 0:07:21.080 --> 0:07:24.400 an email from someone who is three who saw the 0:07:24.480 --> 0:07:25.920 UFOs aparently still remembers it. 0:07:26.240 --> 0:07:27.840 Well, okay, does any of. 0:07:27.840 --> 0:07:30.360 Us remember anything from the age of three? 0:07:31.240 --> 0:07:31.520 Still? 0:07:31.520 --> 0:07:33.080 One of my favorite calls we ever had on the 0:07:33.080 --> 0:07:35.720 show was the two week old baby who remembers. 0:07:35.320 --> 0:07:38.200 The moon landing, not just that she was nothing on 0:07:38.200 --> 0:07:40.640 her mother's teet at the time, but just cast one 0:07:40.680 --> 0:07:44.000 eye on way if we just landed on the moon anyway, 0:07:44.000 --> 0:07:47.120 bad lamp, booby milk. Where were we? Yes, So if 0:07:47.160 --> 0:07:51.720 anyone knows anyone they had a reunion in twenty sixteen 0:07:51.760 --> 0:07:54.080 at the west All Tennis Club. The people that were 0:07:54.120 --> 0:07:55.920 still surviving that saw it. So we'd love to find 0:07:55.920 --> 0:07:59.320 out anyone who saw the UFO. So Trevor Barker once 0:07:59.440 --> 0:08:02.760 lived there. Christian played an under eleven game of footy 0:08:02.800 --> 0:08:06.120 at Dingley Village back in nineteen ninety seven. Got to 0:08:06.160 --> 0:08:08.200 the ground. I need to fight a lot of these 0:08:08.240 --> 0:08:12.120 stories of going to Dingley Village and nothing happening. Got 0:08:12.160 --> 0:08:13.840 to the ground and to find out the game was canceled. 0:08:13.880 --> 0:08:16.000 The gates were chained and padlocked and no one had 0:08:16.000 --> 0:08:20.600 the keys. Fun fact, there's something about Dingley. Dingley is 0:08:20.680 --> 0:08:25.120 right Marapan Airport, Costco and there is a DFO. There 0:08:25.320 --> 0:08:29.200 many factory outlets also, so plenty of shopping. Andrew, this 0:08:29.280 --> 0:08:32.720 doesn't really help us during the breakfast shows now between 0:08:32.760 --> 0:08:35.320 six and nine. Christ isn't to a show this morning 0:08:35.400 --> 0:08:37.839 on facts about Dingley Village. You got to share this one. 0:08:37.960 --> 0:08:41.960 The star of Melbourne City Wrestling Brackets mcw who has 0:08:42.000 --> 0:08:46.360 wrestled all around the world, Adam Brooksy Brooks the loose 0:08:46.480 --> 0:08:51.040 Ledge himself is wrong Dingley. I can't believe Brooksy loose 0:08:51.160 --> 0:08:55.079 Ledge picture attached from his Instagram account hailing from Dingley 0:08:55.240 --> 0:09:00.000 is part of his wrestling entrance. He even caught himself 0:09:00.920 --> 0:09:06.520 the King Lee of altogether now Dingy so much so 0:09:06.640 --> 0:09:08.559 that you can buy T shirts. I wish we'd known 0:09:08.600 --> 0:09:09.080 this last week. 0:09:09.120 --> 0:09:12.000 We could have all got the T shirt? 0:09:12.040 --> 0:09:14.120 Can we? Nick Bys? He's still there? Where does he 0:09:14.160 --> 0:09:17.280 live in Melbourne? Brooksy the King of Dingley T shirt? 0:09:17.320 --> 0:09:20.040 We need these. Christian, you've got to name drop him 0:09:20.040 --> 0:09:22.720 into the conversation. They're bound to be huge wrestling fans there. 0:09:23.000 --> 0:09:24.920 That's from Bethany. 0:09:25.160 --> 0:09:27.960 Christian O'Connell show podcast. 0:09:28.280 --> 0:09:32.320 Found out that the rapper Snoop Dogg has a professional 0:09:32.440 --> 0:09:35.679 joint roller who has to roll him one hundred and 0:09:35.720 --> 0:09:40.840 fifty a day. That is to say, Snoops up for 0:09:40.840 --> 0:09:44.520 I don't know, twelve hours, fourteen hours. That's a lot. 0:09:45.280 --> 0:09:48.319 That's a lot, Okay, one hundred and fifty day. So 0:09:48.640 --> 0:09:50.640 the headline was about one hundred and fifty joints a 0:09:50.720 --> 0:09:53.079 day for Snoop Dogg. That wasn't really big takeaway from me. 0:09:53.679 --> 0:09:56.599 He has a professional joint roller. He what did he 0:09:56.840 --> 0:10:00.680 like run interviews? What's the recruitment policy? Thatson's got like 0:10:00.800 --> 0:10:03.440 sick an entitlement and a package and what like a 0:10:03.480 --> 0:10:06.800 bonus STRUCTURER and stuff like that. I can't believe he 0:10:06.840 --> 0:10:09.840 actually employs someone whose job it is just to roll 0:10:09.840 --> 0:10:10.319 his joints. 0:10:10.360 --> 0:10:12.880 Yeah, you get a repetitive stress in jest well from 0:10:12.920 --> 0:10:15.200 doing the thing movement one hundred and fifty times a day. 0:10:15.320 --> 0:10:17.880 Yeah. So if this was like the sixties or seventies 0:10:17.920 --> 0:10:19.840 and it was for Keith Richards and you heard about 0:10:19.840 --> 0:10:22.480 the story, that you understand that. But in twenty twenty two, 0:10:22.480 --> 0:10:25.160 I thought, what a strange job for somebody. So this morning, 0:10:25.280 --> 0:10:28.720 what is the strangest almost unusual job you've had? 0:10:29.679 --> 0:10:33.160 This is the Christian O'Connell show podcast. 0:10:33.800 --> 0:10:37.240 So Snoop Doggie Dog has someone he employs a full 0:10:37.320 --> 0:10:40.760 time joint roller.

The smoking ard day after day never would take 0:10:57.280 --> 0:10:57.680 its toll. 0:10:57.960 --> 0:10:59.880 Did I ever tell him still about meeting Snoop Dogg? 0:11:00.840 --> 0:11:04.640 Oh my god, this is a horrendous story. Right years ago, 0:11:04.920 --> 0:11:08.360 I was went to see a medium friend of mine 0:11:08.360 --> 0:11:10.400 to a gig and I went to see him backstage 0:11:10.440 --> 0:11:12.640 and he was like very very famous again, and he'd 0:11:12.679 --> 0:11:14.679 been doing a lot of work out in America, and 0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:16.959 backstage or just in the green room, happened to be 0:11:17.040 --> 0:11:19.400 loads of different people in tvings that and as part 0:11:19.480 --> 0:11:21.840 of an entourage, and there was a there was billowing 0:11:21.960 --> 0:11:25.280 smoke everywhere. And I don't mean like when people would 0:11:25.280 --> 0:11:30.640 smoke indoors. I mean Snoop Dogg Worth, Yes, all the dope. 0:11:30.720 --> 0:11:33.080 The center of it was Snoop Dogg. And I got 0:11:33.080 --> 0:11:35.679 introduced to him and he had like this, He had 0:11:35.720 --> 0:11:40.240 like it the law tracksuit and chain he was. He 0:11:40.320 --> 0:11:44.160 looked magnificent and anyway he had this Honestly, it was 0:11:44.240 --> 0:11:47.520 like a It looked like a sub sandwich of a joint. 0:11:47.880 --> 0:11:52.080 And I must have looked like a knarc. I didn't 0:11:52.200 --> 0:11:55.480 they come to that big so And he's obviously a 0:11:55.520 --> 0:11:57.439 polite man. He's introduced to me and he goes he 0:11:57.520 --> 0:12:00.360 sort of pasted it to me, and I I didn't 0:12:00.400 --> 0:12:02.520 know what to say. I went, I went at this. 0:12:03.000 --> 0:12:08.600 I had some early enough, No, I had one earlier. 0:12:08.760 --> 0:12:11.720 I hadn't I had some of that earlier. You know, 0:12:11.760 --> 0:12:14.480 you get a bit full up. Actually, yeah, I've had 0:12:14.520 --> 0:12:16.600 too much. Actually, to be honest, i had ten of 0:12:16.600 --> 0:12:18.880 those on the way here. So I've just got to 0:12:18.880 --> 0:12:19.880 give it another hour two. 0:12:20.080 --> 0:12:25.000 Your's actually quite all right. 0:12:25.080 --> 0:12:28.439 So what is the weirdest or unusual, most unusual job 0:12:28.480 --> 0:12:31.840 you ever had? Nine four one four one oh four 0:12:31.960 --> 0:12:36.080 three Chris, Good morning, Good morning. So Chris, what is 0:12:36.080 --> 0:12:38.400 the most unusual job you've ever had? 0:12:39.360 --> 0:12:42.200 Well, I'm currently a snake catcher. I mean that's pretty unusual. 0:12:42.960 --> 0:12:45.040 And previously I've been a professional adventurer. 0:12:45.600 --> 0:12:47.480 So what is what? What do you mean? Like Indiana Jones? 0:12:47.520 --> 0:12:49.040 What's a professional adventurer? 0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:53.840 So similar to how an athlete works in terms of 0:12:53.880 --> 0:12:56.160 the job, but rather than playing a sport, you just 0:12:56.160 --> 0:12:57.520 do very weird things. 0:12:58.440 --> 0:12:59.880 But who's paying you to do that? 0:13:00.080 --> 0:13:02.560 Yeah? I mean, where's the coin coming from? Who's the 0:13:02.600 --> 0:13:03.959 man at the top of the pyramids? 0:13:06.280 --> 0:13:07.720 You just come up with a bad ideas. 0:13:07.920 --> 0:13:09.760 People jump on board. 0:13:09.559 --> 0:13:13.360 And you get sponsorships, You become ambassadors for companies and 0:13:13.400 --> 0:13:16.200 things like that, and that's how you get paid for 0:13:16.240 --> 0:13:18.920 the job. So the last expedition was kayaking the wrong 0:13:18.960 --> 0:13:21.479 way up the Murray River. Fits on a half thousand gates. 0:13:22.240 --> 0:13:24.040 This is these field like ideas. You come up with 0:13:24.160 --> 0:13:28.800 the pub we're going to rodeo around Australia and so who. 0:13:28.640 --> 0:13:30.520 Paid for that one? Chris, give us an example of 0:13:30.520 --> 0:13:32.800 the company why you got the wrong way? 0:13:33.080 --> 0:13:34.640 Just do the that's aggressive. 0:13:35.520 --> 0:13:38.199 Geelong Kat's actually jumped on board. We had Paddy Palin 0:13:39.400 --> 0:13:43.360 based in Melbourne, big adventure company. We had We're in 0:13:43.440 --> 0:13:46.199 a System's Kayaks who sent basically a kak in a 0:13:46.240 --> 0:13:49.400 paddle every year for a while while was ambassador. So 0:13:49.480 --> 0:13:52.800 companies like that basically genuinely fascinated. 0:13:52.800 --> 0:13:54.400 I feel like we should do a competition to come 0:13:54.480 --> 0:13:55.720 up with your next adventure. 0:13:58.160 --> 0:13:58.880 I'm up for that. 0:13:59.240 --> 0:14:01.240 What's the most impress thing you've ever done, Chris, We'll 0:14:01.280 --> 0:14:02.120 go up the Merry River. 0:14:02.200 --> 0:14:04.000 The wrong way starts from. 0:14:03.920 --> 0:14:07.280 Me, it'd probably be that one going the wrong way 0:14:07.360 --> 0:14:09.640 up That was that was pretty difficult. 0:14:09.679 --> 0:14:12.520 But it's not like the rapids. It's not like Niagara 0:14:12.520 --> 0:14:16.600 for pretty steady body of water, isn't it the Murray? 0:14:17.520 --> 0:14:20.720 It gets pretty fast in the top rangers have to 0:14:20.760 --> 0:14:21.400 take you word. 0:14:21.200 --> 0:14:23.520 From it, all right, Chris, thank you very much. Keep 0:14:23.520 --> 0:14:25.320 the calls coming. Then, the weirdest job you ever. 0:14:25.200 --> 0:14:30.200 Hadler you're listening to the Christian O Carl's Show podcast. 0:14:30.000 --> 0:14:31.680 Jack, was the strangest job you ever had. 0:14:31.800 --> 0:14:34.560 When hamshan Andy were still on row, they wanted to 0:14:34.640 --> 0:14:37.920 film this bit where they were taxi drivers overnight, so 0:14:37.960 --> 0:14:39.840 they would pick up people and then film them and 0:14:39.880 --> 0:14:41.640 interview them where and they're in the taxis, but they 0:14:41.640 --> 0:14:44.880 wouldn't let them have the taxi license unless they actually 0:14:44.880 --> 0:14:48.400 sat the test and did the full setup that you 0:14:48.400 --> 0:14:50.160 have to that every taxi driver has to go through. 0:14:50.320 --> 0:14:52.000 The only exception they gave them is that they were 0:14:52.040 --> 0:14:54.600 allowed to do the tests at the radio station instead 0:14:54.600 --> 0:14:57.040 of doing it at the taxi school. So my first 0:14:57.080 --> 0:15:00.920 paid job on hamer shan Andy was to learn study 0:15:01.120 --> 0:15:04.160 the taxi test. Can sit the taxi test for them? 0:15:04.320 --> 0:15:04.920 You know why? 0:15:06.400 --> 0:15:07.680 The test for them? So I sat in a room 0:15:07.680 --> 0:15:10.520 at the radio station and tried to use different handwriting 0:15:10.560 --> 0:15:15.520 for Hamish's test and answer questions like if you were 0:15:15.560 --> 0:15:18.040 going from Corefield to the airport, what route would you do? 0:15:19.720 --> 0:15:22.520 All right, let's go to Mick. Good morning, Mick. What's 0:15:22.600 --> 0:15:24.480 the strangest job you ever had? Mick? 0:15:25.360 --> 0:15:28.160 Hi, guys, I hope you're ready for this. I worked 0:15:29.400 --> 0:15:31.560 artificially in seminating turkeys. 0:15:32.320 --> 0:15:34.840 Well, someone's going to do it. You know, we won 0:15:34.920 --> 0:15:38.000 the turkeys, then they're going to be made somehow. Someone 0:15:38.040 --> 0:15:41.440 has to do that. And how tricky is that? 0:15:42.400 --> 0:15:47.400 Well, apparently because I don't want enough for commercial purposes. 0:15:48.600 --> 0:15:52.600 It's a tour of person operation. One of them comes up, Hello, darling, 0:15:52.680 --> 0:15:55.720 my name's Mick. Grabbed a turkey, shoved its head between 0:15:55.760 --> 0:15:59.480 its legs, turns it upside down for the other person 0:15:59.480 --> 0:16:01.720 to get a sir rainge and in semin. 0:16:01.520 --> 0:16:04.440 Made it quite a two man job, that, isn't it? 0:16:04.560 --> 0:16:07.600 How you make an eye contact when you're doing that. 0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:10.200 Now, a little bit of small talk and small. 0:16:10.040 --> 0:16:14.080 Talk, how the tiger is going to go next season? 0:16:14.680 --> 0:16:17.080 Yeah, and you gotta move, You gotta move quick, Mike, 0:16:17.480 --> 0:16:18.280 get an ugly one. 0:16:18.360 --> 0:16:20.720 Yeah.

Frank? 0:16:31.280 --> 0:16:35.640 I had to extract gophers from graves in Queen's Park 0:16:35.680 --> 0:16:40.440 Cemetery in Calgary, Canada, because they used to bring up 0:16:41.200 --> 0:16:45.480 the the treasures of the loved loved ones. So it 0:16:45.520 --> 0:16:49.160 was it was it was basically like Caddy Shack with 0:16:49.200 --> 0:16:50.000 Bill Murray's character. 0:16:50.880 --> 0:16:53.000 Almost feel like this should have been the second Caddy 0:16:53.000 --> 0:16:55.680 Shak movie where Bill Murray is now in a in 0:16:55.720 --> 0:16:58.320 a graveyard and the cemetery getting rid of those damn gophers. 0:16:58.320 --> 0:17:00.280 So the gophers were like little grave diggers. 0:17:00.920 --> 0:17:04.080 Yeah, they kept bringing up little piles of things like well, 0:17:04.080 --> 0:17:07.040 we'll just say metal objects and things and. 0:17:08.680 --> 0:17:10.480 Say what you mean? I mean, there's no dead people 0:17:10.560 --> 0:17:12.600 listening right now. They're not going to call in from 0:17:12.640 --> 0:17:14.640 the grave moaning, So what do you mean like. 0:17:15.640 --> 0:17:20.720 Wedding ring earrings, things like that, and yeah, and we 0:17:20.800 --> 0:17:22.840 did it in a very humane manner, but it was some. 0:17:23.000 --> 0:17:23.160 Yeah. 0:17:23.160 --> 0:17:25.200 I got a bit of a reputation in that cemetery 0:17:25.240 --> 0:17:27.080 sort of because it was the hear that that movie came. 0:17:27.520 --> 0:17:30.800 So you are so Canadian, and of course being Canadian, 0:17:30.880 --> 0:17:33.520 you've done it an incredibly humane way you probably would 0:17:33.560 --> 0:17:35.240 have sat with all the thirty years until these died 0:17:35.240 --> 0:17:40.000 of natural causes in a little room. 0:17:41.040 --> 0:17:43.159 Think of the families, Think of the loved ones of 0:17:43.200 --> 0:17:43.720 the decease. 0:17:44.720 --> 0:17:46.679 So are they? Are they? Somehow I'm actually get into 0:17:46.720 --> 0:17:48.840 the coffins. All these are the works. 0:17:50.000 --> 0:17:51.280 I don't know how they do it, but they've got 0:17:51.359 --> 0:17:53.399 very sharp teeth. I don't know if you're seen a golfer, 0:17:53.400 --> 0:17:54.320 but they've I. 0:17:54.280 --> 0:17:56.600 Haven't had that pleasure yet my life, but still time, 0:17:56.680 --> 0:17:58.240 you know, still trying to take that off my boot 0:17:59.000 --> 0:17:59.240 like a. 0:17:59.160 --> 0:18:00.720 Little beaver of mine, the flat tail. 0:18:01.119 --> 0:18:03.440 So they will just burrow their way into the coffin, 0:18:03.960 --> 0:18:06.680 have a little look around the corpse, and then take 0:18:06.720 --> 0:18:07.760 what they want. 0:18:08.480 --> 0:18:09.479 That's what it seemed to be. 0:18:09.840 --> 0:18:12.080 I think that's why the Queen's coffin was iron club. 0:18:13.720 --> 0:18:14.679 Stop the gophers. 0:18:15.480 --> 0:18:17.000 I think that would be hedgehogs in English. 0:18:17.200 --> 0:18:19.560 Yes, all right, Frank, thank you very much and cool. 0:18:20.880 --> 0:18:23.760 The Christian O'Connell Show podcast. 0:18:23.720 --> 0:18:26.720 This time tomorrow morning, me Jack and Batsy not here 0:18:26.760 --> 0:18:29.040 in Richmond, talking to you in our studio. We are 0:18:29.160 --> 0:18:30.960 show on the road. We are going to be in 0:18:31.040 --> 0:18:34.480 the welcoming tiny lot of cramped but very homely surround 0:18:34.680 --> 0:18:37.560 of Dingley Village and listener Monica with her husband Dustin, 0:18:37.880 --> 0:18:41.560 and there are two kids. They've won the show. Also 0:18:41.720 --> 0:18:44.639 Pseudo Echo playing live at the moment. There's five of 0:18:44.640 --> 0:18:47.360 them in Sudo Echo. Brian obviously the least singer. He's 0:18:47.400 --> 0:18:49.679 going to be in the Melbourne's tinest kitchen, which is 0:18:49.800 --> 0:18:52.119 so small. The team went out there yesterday Patsy and 0:18:52.160 --> 0:18:55.080 they said it really is so small. It's one person 0:18:55.280 --> 0:18:57.439 only at the time in the kitchen Brian and his 0:18:57.560 --> 0:19:00.360 keyboard is going to be wedged in there. Cat. 0:19:00.560 --> 0:19:02.280 I'm worried about how are we going to because they 0:19:02.280 --> 0:19:04.160 said they will cook his breakfast, but we also want 0:19:04.160 --> 0:19:05.760 to put Pseudo Echo in the kitchen, so. 0:19:05.800 --> 0:19:07.520 We're going to have to be very good on timing. 0:19:07.520 --> 0:19:10.520 So we need to eat before Pseudo Echo, then get 0:19:11.200 --> 0:19:13.919 out of the way and then when in there. The 0:19:13.960 --> 0:19:16.040 team asked me yesterday actually, because you do go and 0:19:16.040 --> 0:19:18.399 do Hamish Nandy, where do you think Jack's going to sit? 0:19:18.440 --> 0:19:20.920 I said, wherever the most comfortable seat is. Right. He 0:19:20.960 --> 0:19:23.280 will plump himself down there like a cat and then 0:19:23.280 --> 0:19:25.320
