Speaker 2: The two of us were wetting ourselves laughing, but people
Speaker 2: are horrified. That's from Mark Kim Christian Sue Cartmel. He
Speaker 2: just read her email out. She is a true legend
Speaker 2: from one of the science teachers she looks after every day.
Speaker 2: That's awesome. Amazing story this week about a passenger at
Speaker 2: Darwin Airport getting a three thousand dollars fine after trying
Speaker 2: to smuggle in macas from Barley into this country where
Speaker 2: McDonald's is widely available. Literally everywhere is there an airport
Speaker 2: in the world where donald isn't it. I've been to
Speaker 2: Darwin Airport. They've got a maca is there. Mate. You
Speaker 2: didn't need to smug it at all. It's expensive happy meal. Ever,
Speaker 2: it was a sniffer dog that discovered this as well.
Speaker 2: I'm sure as a dog went. I've never seen one
Speaker 2: of those dogs where they go brazilk It must be
Speaker 2: quite a scene. Actually, you know normally that they sort
Speaker 2: of this, this sort of go around. It's sort of
Speaker 2: came out. I've never seen what it must be like.
Speaker 2: When would they do they bark or roll over or
Speaker 2: whatever they do. It's real tall react what you do?
Speaker 2: What were you trying to bring into the champagne Charlie.
Speaker 2: You know those always says he loves so much. They
Speaker 2: sit down next to you politely and then politely they're
Speaker 2: very well trained. They're coming, they'll sit down. How do
Speaker 2: you know this, I've seen it happen really. Yeah, well
Speaker 2: they would just sit down. Yeah, they come and then
Speaker 2: surely so's just going to run off. If the dog
Speaker 2: does that and they're like start getting I'm going guys,
Speaker 2: they might have them to go for the colprit's throat.
Speaker 2: They're beagles though they're not German shepherds, but they need
Speaker 2: they need to. They just just sit down. They just
Speaker 2: sit down next to you and then you go, who
Speaker 2: you God, damn it. Darndest thing happened today at the airport.
Speaker 2: Peter Itch and I love doing this new story yesterday
Speaker 2: is the hitch Zinta.
Speaker 1: The sniffer dog made a meal of a returning traveler's
Speaker 1: contraband McDonalds. A domin airport. Two egg and saucing to
Speaker 1: munkmuhuans hotcakes and a ham clussarn't were detected in the
Speaker 1: suitcase of a passenger coming back from Bali.
Speaker 2: As the cross on as well plus all that food's
Speaker 2: gonna it's gonna be cold, right, Macas is fine. However
Speaker 2: macas when it's cold cold egg McMuffin, that is wrong
Speaker 2: and unpacking all your holiday gain. There's a cold McMuffin
Speaker 2: in there. Why so anyway, today then we want to
Speaker 2: know what have you snuck in? What have you tried
Speaker 2: to smuggle in? Whether it's stuff to the cinema or
Speaker 2: whether it's to a gig, trying to get booze into
Speaker 2: a festival. Well, whatever it is, we want to know
Speaker 2: about it. Nine four one four one o four three.
Speaker 2: And can you also, I do not believe that the
Speaker 2: dogs just sit politely next to you. I think Rio
Speaker 2: just made it up. Has anyone seen one of those dogs,
Speaker 2: as Jack called it, get activated when they've caught mister peg.
Speaker 1: This is the Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 2: The hottest thing in town to win right now, one
Speaker 2: of these golden kettles who knew good on too, Julie Christian.
Speaker 2: We're our family, big tea drinkers. I'd even take my
Speaker 2: own grateful teenagers and a cup of tea in the
Speaker 2: morning to start their day. It's a less argumentative way
Speaker 2: to wake them.
Speaker 6: Up.
Speaker 2: It is our old kettle's on the way out. Though
Speaker 2: the water level is stained, looks like it's half full.
Speaker 2: The kids never flip back the lid to check if
Speaker 2: there's any water in it. When I hear it on,
Speaker 2: I know there's no water, and I race like a
Speaker 2: mad woman yetting tear it off. It sounds like a
Speaker 2: rattling freight train that's going to explode. If there is
Speaker 2: a gold kettle spare, I'll be thrilled to give it
Speaker 2: a new home. Julie immer Rappan, you have been an
Speaker 2: early supporter of the show. I recognize your name. You're
Speaker 2: always down the time wasters. Absolutely you can have a
Speaker 2: golden kettle. Thank you very much. All right, well, looking
Speaker 2: for your stories of smuggling. So you've got a story
Speaker 2: not smuggling, but smuggling out.
Speaker 7: I always smuggle out. Already calls it my food purse,
Speaker 7: which is my big handbag. What a phrase out of
Speaker 7: the supermarket.
Speaker 2: I pray we never have to hear you toke your
Speaker 2: food separate gain. I feel a little bit sick now.
Speaker 7: Whenever we go out for dinner, I usually smuggle the
Speaker 7: little salt and peppers and sugars. Sometimes the mini butters.
Speaker 7: They come in very do. They come in handy at
Speaker 7: a picnic. I stash them away and they're tasted. You
Speaker 7: guys going on quite regularly in the summertime, but they're brilliant.
Speaker 7: I get what you're stealing. The pepper one shoe. Now,
Speaker 7: I've got a bit of class.
Speaker 2: He must have gone the last twenty four hours, all right,
Speaker 2: So smuggling in or like Patsy's smuggling out. Okay. And
Speaker 2: Rio told me that the dogs when they become activated,
Speaker 2: when they sniffy, sniffy, sniff and there's something dodging in
Speaker 2: your bags, they will sit down politely next to you.
Speaker 2: I don't believe that. Surely they must start yelling or
Speaker 2: dogs called it bucking this guy on me, Matt, Hello, Matt.
Speaker 5: Hi Christian made. I can confirm Rio's story. They do
Speaker 5: just sit beside you because it happened to me. Wow, mate,
Speaker 5: I was coming back from a trip to Tazzy, been
Speaker 5: to the Cabri factory, had in my bag a little
Speaker 5: bit of chocolate in the bottom. Were not a little
Speaker 5: bit of a fair bit of chuckling in the bottom
Speaker 5: of my carry on bag and they late night last
Speaker 5: fight in from Tazzy back into Melbourne and the dog's
Speaker 5: there and I said, oh, no big deal, I've got nothing.
Speaker 5: I've done nothing. And he came up, sniffed my bag
Speaker 5: and sat right beside me, and the guy said, can
Speaker 5: you step out of line first? So I stepped out
Speaker 5: of line and he checked everybody else and they came
Speaker 5: back and he said, anything in your bag. I said, no,
Speaker 5: nothing in my bag. So they sniffed it again and
Speaker 5: the dog sat again. He said, mate, we're gonna have
Speaker 5: to empty the bag. So they emptied my bag and
Speaker 5: they got to the bottom and they saw the layer
Speaker 5: of Cabri chocolate and the guy's face looked at the
Speaker 5: dog and he looked at me and he goes, I'm
Speaker 5: really sorry mate. We've been training in with chocolate tree.
Speaker 2: And that's an incredible story, Matt. I love that you've got.
Speaker 2: You've got to have one of our golden kettle's. That's
Speaker 2: a great story.

Speaker 2: the old drug dogs.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, look, I've got a breeder or of the
Speaker 4: drug dogs for Australian's customs. And it is quite true
Speaker 4: though they're trying to just be very nice and plot
Speaker 4: and whatever they're trained in sniffing. If they sniff it out,
Speaker 4: they just sit right next to you.
Speaker 2: And do They do different things for what they think
Speaker 2: is in there. So if it's explosives or money, they
Speaker 2: might do a like stand up on one poor or
Speaker 2: something or.
Speaker 4: Not quite one poor guys. But yeah, look it it's
Speaker 4: true that they're they're bred in Victoria and they're they're
Speaker 4: sent all over the world or people from different customs.

Speaker 4: Not the only place. But we've got such a great program.
Speaker 4: They're flying twice a year. Yeah, they're flying twice a year.
Speaker 4: And they still up dogs. Yeah, still our dogs.
Speaker 2: And this government does nothing wake up people or their dogs. Yeah.

Speaker 4: like that, they if our bodies or.
Speaker 8: They Yeah, and we've we've got to breed about our
Speaker 8: dogs bred nineteen pups.

Speaker 2: it mainly beagles or they still use the German shepherd
Speaker 2: dogs No labradors.

Speaker 3: Beagles, I mean, librador's no friendlier than a beagle.
Speaker 2: No, they are no FRIENDLYSS dog in the world.
Speaker 4: No, it's it's probably easier to train though, because if
