Speaker 1: Christ Yeah, welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 2: We haven't got time to wait for the intro to
Speaker 2: the show. We like Patsy was just saying, today is
Speaker 2: the day. Today is the day we've been building too
Speaker 2: for a couple of months called the Longest Serve, where
Speaker 2: we have people ready to go brandishing tennis rackets, trying
Speaker 2: to take each other on. Hit a tennis ball over
Speaker 2: the yarra. Whoever hits the furthest whin's ticket this weekend
Speaker 2: to go to the men's final at the Open. But
Speaker 2: if you're listening to you right now, you have seen
Speaker 2: the lightning. You'll have seen the thunder. And it's not
Speaker 2: like we were in a wide open space. And those
Speaker 2: are tennis rackets that are metallic lightning rod is how
Speaker 2: lightning could see.
Speaker 3: That Patsy stage is made out of ls.
Speaker 2: Actually right, we couldn't be in a more dangerous situation.
Speaker 2: And Patsy, you know you said in your weather that
Speaker 2: maybe thunder weather needs to lose the word. Maybe maybe
Speaker 2: we can go, maybe we kin'd have maybe weather, is
Speaker 2: there going to be thunder during the next light till
Speaker 2: three hours?
Speaker 4: Well, I have to tell you I have to be honest,
Speaker 4: I've got to call out. I am waiting eagerly for
Speaker 4: the bomb to call us back to give us an update,
Speaker 4: as eager as you. But it dropped.
Speaker 2: Jack and I have been told by you that you
Speaker 2: have the hotline. Hot line is.
Speaker 4: You know what used to be gone? O the days
Speaker 4: you used to be actually able to ring the overnight
Speaker 4: on call meteorologists, the senior meteorologist and have a one
Speaker 4: on one with them. Get grabs.
Speaker 2: Now some overseas call center. Now there's Red Australia. Are
Speaker 2: you in India?
Speaker 4: You know what you have to do now you have
Speaker 4: to bless their hearts. You have to.
Speaker 2: Email the take a knee for them.
Speaker 4: Email the media unit. And they're not in until six,
Speaker 4: so they're just making their cup of tea.
Speaker 3: They went from the bomb to the bureau trusted.
Speaker 4: So I am trying to get an answer, but it
Speaker 4: dropped two degrees just before my six o'clock news from
Speaker 4: twenty seven to twenty five. Lots of thunderlots of lightning,
Speaker 4: very very frightening, Thank.
Speaker 2: You, Patsy. So basically the plan was and still is
Speaker 2: in italics in virtual commers that this starts at just
Speaker 2: after seven o'clock. Both the Rio and Jack are just
Speaker 2: as ball boys right now. I mean, you look awesome.
Speaker 2: It looks great, but everyone's a little bit. The atmospherics
Speaker 2: above us are hearing this studio as well. There's a
Speaker 2: combustible atmosphere on the show.
Speaker 3: I've never really seen lightning like I saw this morning.
Speaker 2: He said.
Speaker 3: It was like a light display.
Speaker 4: Yeah, sheet lighting.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: It takes me twenty seconds award from the front door
Speaker 3: to the car and it would have spread the sky
Speaker 3: with lightning seven or eight times.
Speaker 2: Yeah. As it was coming over the year today, I thought, oh,
Speaker 2: I have a look down and see where we're going
Speaker 2: to be. It was literally like a stage show like
Speaker 2: Jean Michel Jean eliminated by crashing forks of light, and
Speaker 2: I went, that's not a good thing. Technical gear. Caitlyn,
Speaker 2: our producer, just asked some of us to pray. So
Speaker 2: are we still going ahead? We have we have to.
Speaker 2: Well there's the tomorrow is raining and then the men's
Speaker 2: final is Sunday. That's happening. We have to give away
Speaker 2: these tickets today. Let's speak to so let's be to
Speaker 2: Doug here we spoke to last week. Good morning, Doug,
Speaker 2: Good morning, Christian. Now, Doug, I asked Caitlin to get
Speaker 2: a hold of you asap because you'll know more about
Speaker 2: extreme weather pans. Because Doug contact us the last week
Speaker 2: when we're first talking about what we're going to be
Speaker 2: doing the Longest Serve and Doug has a charity and
Speaker 2: he goes over it. If I've got this right over
Speaker 2: to the Himalayas and you take tennis rackets, second hand
Speaker 2: tennis rackets to schools over there and areas over there.
Speaker 6: Yes, we certainly have to know what the weather's doing
Speaker 6: over there. I'd just like to say, Jack this morning,
Speaker 6: who's going to be the smart winning climbing gear this morning?
Speaker 7: Now we do.
Speaker 2: This isn't the time for settling grievances. We have an
Speaker 2: appointment on a makeshift story. That's the thing about feud. Listen, team,
Speaker 2: we need to be strong. We longest Servers won. Doug,
Speaker 2: what's the weather prediction for the next two or three hours?
Speaker 6: So I think this will go through. I've been watching
Speaker 6: the fronts about four am. It's heading northeast. It'll be
Speaker 6: well and truly through from the Metropolinia. Shortly there's a
Speaker 6: few scattered chows across the Victoria and the latest update
Speaker 6: from the weather. It is only one real maximum today,
Speaker 6: so I think we've already done.
Speaker 7: That this morning.
Speaker 2: So you saying we're good to go, I.
Speaker 7: Think we're definitely good to go. Absolutely.
Speaker 2: It's a lightning and thunder calming down, though it's not
Speaker 2: so frequent.
Speaker 6: I thought the lighting was there to set up earlier,
Speaker 6: because that gets started early.
Speaker 7: But no, that'll be all through.
Speaker 6: I think it'll be a great morning.
Speaker 2: Lightning all through is not a great mourning for our engineers,
Speaker 2: expensive equipment, members of the public. US metallic tennis racket's
Speaker 2: been waved up at the sky. It's almost challenging fun.
Speaker 2: Look back at the.
Speaker 3: Front dog and tell me what because.
Speaker 2: We get up in that crow's nest and get the
Speaker 2: bino's working again. It's another maybe, isn't it. It's arounded
Speaker 2: by maybe today.
Speaker 1: The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 2: It's all been building today and the Jimmy with.
Speaker 3: Your best sir, Oh can you hit over the yarrah?
Speaker 2: I did actually ask for thunder sound effects last week?
Speaker 5: What side of Rod labor Rosie too?
Speaker 2: Weather permitting, Weather permitting, we will be down in an
Speaker 2: hour's time, less than an hour's time at the ERA
Speaker 2: with fifteen of you, the challenge is how far can
Speaker 2: you hit tennis ball? Can you clear the yarra? Whoever
Speaker 2: hits at the furthest this morning wins their way to
Speaker 2: the Australian Open this weekend and the men's final VIP
Speaker 2: courts side tickets. But Melbourne be and Melbourne has surprised
Speaker 2: all of us. Hold my beer, tennis players. Thunder and
Speaker 2: light light you've never seen it before at five am.
Speaker 2: So the moment we're relying on listeners, satellite imagery of
Speaker 2: which we know nothing about, to try and speculate whether
Speaker 2: it's safe for actually to do this.
Speaker 3: The iPhone emoji for me this morning had a cloud
Speaker 3: with free thunderstroke.
Speaker 2: Oh no, we've got who we got here? Rob on
Speaker 2: the link in morning, Rob? What can you see? Morning? Rob?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Christian?
Speaker 2: How am I? Well? We're tens in the moment. We
Speaker 2: don't know whether we go one hundred percent commit and
Speaker 2: all relocate to the yarrow or we don't know what
Speaker 2: to do. What's the weather like? Were you are?
Speaker 7: I'm out in Footscray, I'm looking at the clouds now.
Speaker 7: It's come from the southwest. But the good thing is
Speaker 7: that's clearing up.
Speaker 2: This is good news. You one. We can still do
Speaker 2: the longest serve Rob, thank you very much. It be
Speaker 2: more more help than the bureau perhaisly they called you back.
Speaker 2: Yeah that n.
Speaker 4: We put another one in there. Still calling back.
Speaker 2: Someone is not going to be getting your notes of praise,
Speaker 2: taking time out from my day, make my job bless that?
Speaker 2: No for you? So are we all now? Caitlin producing
Speaker 2: Kaitlin is the what's the ruling at the moment? What
Speaker 2: do you reckon? Then?
Speaker 9: The ruling is that we're continuing and we're going ahead
Speaker 9: because it is clearing up.
Speaker 2: I love this decisive leadership. This is what could possibly
Speaker 2: go wrong. It's not speculate because it's lightning and voltage.
Speaker 2: All right. So we were going to be doing some
Speaker 2: songs after seven o'clock as we are down at the raw.
Speaker 2: We are still going to be down there. We need
Speaker 2: big motivational songs to do with tennis. Now I'm thinking
Speaker 2: Momoiselle broaden up to the weather as well. Jack, what
Speaker 2: do you think we should play this morning?
Speaker 3: I thought, with the contestants hitting it as far as
Speaker 3: they possibly can, how about Nelly fititato. I'm like a bird.
Speaker 10: What a tune, what a dream?
Speaker 2: I love this song.
Speaker 3: In this metaphor, the ball becomes the bird.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, Oh yes, I've got this team. Great
Speaker 2: thing about having editing facilities is you queue up the
Speaker 2: bit you want to go to so that when I go,
Speaker 2: I've got this he goes great bars and fire. Not
Speaker 2: old Jerry le lewis walking his fingers up and down
Speaker 2: the keyboard straight into great balls of fire. Any fine,
Speaker 2: come on, Jerry, It's just you get the point in
Speaker 2: this metaphor telling one of the worst songs in the
Speaker 2: world and one of the worst bands of the world
Speaker 2: is imagine dragons. They've got one of the weakest names ever.
Speaker 2: They did this terrible song. This song makes me angry.
Speaker 2: I don't know why they make me angry. It's the
Speaker 2: name I know we call ourselves. Close your eyes, guys,
Speaker 2: just imagine dragons. We're flying. Oh my god, this metaphor.
Speaker 2: We're flying, and we're pooping out songs and hits. All right,
Speaker 2: what songs loosely connected with tennis? We're looking for very,
Speaker 2: very diluted metaphors today. Any song we could play loosely connected.
Speaker 2: It's like five degrees of tennis in a song, isn't it.
Speaker 1: This is the Christian O'Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 2: You were back from the bureau yet, pats No, I'm
Speaker 2: not happy with this either. No one but an Acro
Speaker 2: winner in the corner. No one puts Patsy in the corner.
Speaker 2: I'm sure thirty minutes. Good morning, it's a cushion. O'Connor Show,
Speaker 2: six twenty nine, Wednesday morning, Full steam ahead. We are
Speaker 2: heading down to the Era. Despite thunder lightning widespread over
Speaker 2: the last hour, we are heading down. We're looking for
Speaker 2: motivational big songs. So everyone take my after seven to
Speaker 2: this morning for the longer serve. As you line up
Speaker 2: seeing how far can you hit a tennis ball? My
Speaker 2: wife said to me here, so you think anyone's going
Speaker 2: to do it? I don't know.
Speaker 10: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Do you know what I think? I think it's going
Speaker 2: to go far. I think it go really far. I
Speaker 2: think they get over sixty. I don't know if anyone's
Speaker 2: going to go seventy. Also, when I was trying to
Speaker 2: get the dogs, you know, I don't know what your
Speaker 2: dogs were lot this morning, but they they get real
Speaker 2: screw when the weather's on this. They really don't like
Speaker 2: it do they And normally in the morning when I
Speaker 2: get up and let the dog go on, stretch its
Speaker 2: leg and do what it needs to do out in
Speaker 2: the little patch of a garden. That dog literally stuck
Speaker 2: one pour out today and was looking around going, man,
Speaker 2: just poke and way, I suck it back up. I'm
Speaker 2: not going on this weather. But there was a load
Speaker 2: of wind around. There was a lot. It's very, very windy,
Speaker 2: so I don't know if they're hitting into the wind
Speaker 2: or they're going to have a tail stair.
Speaker 3: If we channel it the right way, and then I
Speaker 3: think we will see them soar over the rip.
Speaker 2: And you're right, Chat, we have the power to channel weather,
Speaker 2: of course, or we get deaf there like Greek gods.
Speaker 2: All right, So what songs? Christian? What about Elton John?
Speaker 2: I'm still standing. You're going to still be doing this, Michael,
Speaker 2: that's a great one. What about Wrecking Ball? Miley? Sy
Speaker 2: Ri is great one. DEBI A lot of you are
Speaker 2: saying black Eyed Peas. I got a feeling because there's
Speaker 2: a line go out and smash it. We should definitely
Speaker 2: play that. Christ Do you remember this song the power Snap?
Speaker 2: That's what they need. These tunes are good that we're
Speaker 2: building a new radio station. Passy, what do you reckon?
Speaker 2: We should play?
Speaker 4: I want to add to the mix rock you like
Speaker 4: a Hurricane by the Scorpions.
Speaker 2: We're trying a little bit of a positivity going in.
Speaker 2: We don't want to invoke a stronger with a hurricane
Speaker 2: is bad enough.
Speaker 3: Their performance will be powered all right?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, because it's a well known phrase.
Speaker 3: Now I love it.
Speaker 2: Now, this is this is a great choice. This is
Speaker 2: a great song Scorpions, isn't it.
Speaker 3: I don't know how to see our competitants. In my mind,
Speaker 3: I whipped up in the wind, getting dragged into the river.
Speaker 2: All right, well, let's go to the lines. Let's go
Speaker 2: to Jared. Good morning, Jared. What should we play for
Speaker 2: everyone trying to take part in the longest serve today?
Speaker 3: Yeah, good morning.
Speaker 11: It's going to be as hand this drag with the
Speaker 11: lightning stole we want, don't ye.
Speaker 5: A?
Speaker 2: Jared' been swept up in that hurricane right now? One
Speaker 2: of those old twister of all texts. So looking good today?
Speaker 3: Everything soon plays for the.

Speaker 3: be getting into a speedboat to collect the any tennis
Speaker 3: balls that don't make it all the way across the river.
Speaker 2: Now, yeah, because none of them will obviously be left
Speaker 2: in the in the river, and how we found out anymore? Yet,
Speaker 2: I know you're inquiring yesterday about a life jacket because
Speaker 2: obviously you're leaning over. You can't be leaning over too
Speaker 2: much and you're in the river.
Speaker 3: And I don't want to be netting up a ball
Speaker 3: and then fall over, and then you guys never.
Speaker 2: Want to hear from them as well, none of us,
Speaker 2: None of us guys I speak for all of us,
Speaker 2: or I ever want to be netting up a ball

Speaker 7: Best?
Speaker 2: Does he have a life? Has he got one?
Speaker 3: I can't swim, so I should be okay, Yes, you.
Speaker 9: Will have a life jacket because we just can't trust
Speaker 9: if he falls in trying to get.
Speaker 2: Some of the balls, you don't worry about his safety.
Speaker 2: He's a father and a valued member of this team.
Speaker 2: About someone on the team we can't get the ball,
Speaker 2: did he at least smash you get all the balls out?
Speaker 2: Otherwise shame on that person? All right? Yesterday on the show,

Speaker 2: always on the lookout for more. Well, someone else is
Speaker 2: on the lookount for more. I am going to be
Speaker 2: buying a Holden. I don't care what state it's in.
Speaker 2: At the moment. A lot of you are starting to
Speaker 2: email me we're going to buy one if we need
Speaker 2: to restore it up to its full glory and then
Speaker 2: give it away. But we're going to buy a Holden.
Speaker 2: And it's not so must giving it away as as
Speaker 2: I passing it on to keeping the love going for
Speaker 2: the Holdens. Joe, thank you very much for that. It's
Speaker 2: good to Steve here. Come on in, Steve, what's your
Speaker 2: Holden story for us?
Speaker 10: Oh?
Speaker 2: Because Jack's not here and he already puts the calls
Speaker 2: through on Sorry Steve, Sorry Steve. We just missed the
Speaker 2: beginning of his story there, mate, so sorry if you
Speaker 2: could get you to a rewright. No, no, it's our promise, right, Steve,
Speaker 2: tell me a Holden story again, buddy.
Speaker 12: In the seventies, my dad worked at GM Mats and
Speaker 12: Janney On and he was involved in testing the new
Speaker 12: vehicles that came out and models, and he used to
Speaker 12: brag and say the first part of testing was to
Speaker 12: see how fast they could drive from Danniel to lang Lang.
Speaker 2: This is obviously in the time before speed cameras or
Speaker 2: anything like that.
Speaker 12: There's time where the police used to meet him up
Speaker 12: at the pub. Later on I have a view with them.
Speaker 12: But this one stake. He used to bring all these
Speaker 12: new cars home that we'd never seen before. He brought
Speaker 12: home the Toronto, a nine X, and a Sunbird. And
Speaker 12: one day he brought home this new card. No one
Speaker 12: had ever seen it before. It was called a Commodore,
Speaker 12: and it was so fancy. It had windstream, white was
Speaker 12: on the headlights. We were the first family. We were
Speaker 12: the first family ever to drive in a holding Commodore.
Speaker 2: That is an amazing clean to fame. Because the Commodore
Speaker 2: went on to become the most popular car didn't. I
Speaker 2: think one of the most poplary cars ever in Australia
Speaker 2: in one.
Speaker 12: Car of the year for like eight or ten years running.
Speaker 12: So when the VV first came out, it was just
Speaker 12: a complete change of everything that had ever done from
Speaker 12: Kingswood and it was it was a fairly close replica
Speaker 12: to the open Commodore in Germany, but had it was
Speaker 12: all Australian designed, in Australian made.
Speaker 2: Is that amazing? How at the time that would have
Speaker 2: seen like the future about windscreen wipers on the headlights
Speaker 2: would have been like really flash.
Speaker 12: It was unbelievable. It had electric windows and electric and
Speaker 12: tenor and and that stage. I remember my dad saying
Speaker 12: that the top of the range sl was going to
Speaker 12: be around about twenty thousand dollars.
Speaker 2: I remember you just mentioned about electric windows and a
Speaker 2: car imber years ago. We were in Europe and not
Speaker 2: to hire some cheap higher car and the kids got
Speaker 2: in it and it didn't have electric windows, right this is
Speaker 2: about sort of fifteen years ago, and they were.
Speaker 10: Like, oh my god, it's got old fashioned.
Speaker 2: Windows in it, like we at some sort of car museum.
Speaker 2: Thank you very much your story, Steve. Have a good day.
Speaker 12: You're welcome to have a great day, guys.
Speaker 2: Adam, Good morning, Adam Christian.

Speaker 7: Q station wagon in ninety two.
Speaker 2: This is a is a second story two days run

Speaker 2: better than an eternity? Ward is a holden? And where
Speaker 2: did this all take?
Speaker 7: The place made over and over on the west coast
Speaker 7: of the South Island and New Zealand.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 7: And we were traveling up to the hospital. She had
Speaker 7: already had we had a step, we already had a daughter,
Speaker 7: so I thought she was all over it. How long
Speaker 7: was I halfway up there?
Speaker 5: Mate?
Speaker 7: We hit the bit of roadworks and the old man
Speaker 7: always is, if you ever wanted to start a carvin
Speaker 7: take her for a run on the gravel road. Well,
Speaker 7: how true was that? As soon as we hit that
Speaker 7: gravel road, mate, she went straight into labor.
Speaker 2: That could be women who expect him right now, that
Speaker 2: might try this this weekend, if they're running a week
Speaker 2: or two late, if they're from a due date.
Speaker 7: That's it, so she she sees to be She's still
Speaker 7: looked at her in the revision because I heard that
Speaker 7: I had a matress at the back. We're all organized, mate,

Speaker 7: be right love, And she sees Nana pull over, it's coming.

Speaker 2: in the back.
Speaker 1: Look Christian Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 2: While some of you were sleeping this city about four am,
Speaker 2: put on an amazing light show. Forget what Sydney Harbor
Speaker 2: Bridge does for you is eve. It was like that
Speaker 2: and it seems to be centered around the Yarra. Just
Speaker 2: our home, very unfortunate, our home for today's big show.
Speaker 2: For the longest a load of you are lined up,
Speaker 2: get one shot. Can I hit that tennis ball as
Speaker 2: far as you can? Can you hit it over the Yarra.
Speaker 2: I'll be heading down in about fifteen minutes time. It
Speaker 2: is still going ahead, end position right now, Jack Post,
Speaker 2: Good morning, Jack.
Speaker 13: Good morning Christian. I'm standing on the north bank of
Speaker 13: the Yarrow River and what is now a beautiful.
Speaker 2: Morning get in. No thunder, no lightning, no rain.
Speaker 13: Ay, still is anything here? The temperatures perfect, There's no wind,
Speaker 13: no thunder, no rain. The clouds are clearing, a blue
Speaker 13: sky above the Yarra.
Speaker 2: And can you see some of our very brave and
Speaker 2: courageous athletes warming up right now?
Speaker 13: Okay, I'm on the opposite side of the river to them,
Speaker 13: but I see well, actually no, they're all seated at
Speaker 13: the moment. Rio's got them sitting down.
Speaker 2: An interesting way to do it, briefing.
Speaker 13: Yeah, but I mean this is a full setup, mate.
Speaker 13: They've got Park's Victoria police look in boats with flashing
Speaker 13: lights on the type making sure that nobody enters the
Speaker 13: sitting zone of the river. Then we've got an ancient
Speaker 13: looking fisherman in some kind of George boat, the thing
Speaker 13: they called jaws in and he's laying out the boomer.
Speaker 2: Was the old man in charge of that boat. And George,
Speaker 2: is that is that the boat the urine? Are you
Speaker 2: in with old man Clinton.
Speaker 3: For my life?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 13: No, I'm in a nifty little speedboat. Also that tiny
Speaker 13: that fishing boat. It looks like he's about to go
Speaker 13: out to see after this.
Speaker 2: It's going to go and catch boby deck.
Speaker 13: But it's all set. And the first thing I'll tell
Speaker 13: you is, seventy meters looks way further than what I
Speaker 13: thought it was.
Speaker 2: Really Yeah, because we've just been talking about and imagining it,
Speaker 2: we haven't been down at the hour of seeing how
Speaker 2: father is. So are you now changed? Do you think
Speaker 2: anything would actually be able to do it?
Speaker 13: It's going to take some proper whack of the ball
Speaker 13: to get it across the river and to the other side.
Speaker 2: So over the other side of the Hora to you
Speaker 2: is where Rio is positioned. Can you have you got
Speaker 2: visual on Rio?
Speaker 13: Yes, he's waving a tennis trucket in the air at me.
Speaker 2: An hour ago without thunder. Rio, can you see Jack?
Speaker 5: I can all the way in the distance, just a
Speaker 5: little speck, a little white speck across the yarrow. I
Speaker 5: can see Jack post it is so much further than
Speaker 5: I thought. I was actually pretty confident that we'd have
Speaker 5: someone hit it over, But once you're actually there. I'm
Speaker 5: standing now on the stage looking across the beautiful, murky yarrow.
Speaker 5: I'm looking at a big red target and an angel
Speaker 5: statue behind it, and it looks a mile away. I'm
Speaker 5: not I think we might have been a bit ambitious.
Speaker 2: So I mean, what do you think now? Maybe half
Speaker 2: the arrow?
Speaker 5: Half I think they'll get over half. I think they'll
Speaker 5: probably get I'll be very surprised if anyone gets to
Speaker 5: sixty five.
Speaker 2: Sixty five Okay, and you've seen the athlete. So are
Speaker 2: you with them? Are they're warming up or Jack said
Speaker 2: you had them sat down for briefing.
Speaker 5: Yes, I haven't looked, to be honest. There's a couple
Speaker 5: just sort of it's very casual vibes at the moment,
Speaker 5: just sitting down, taking their trackies off. One of them
Speaker 5: is rummaging through a bag, pongs on his phone. A
Speaker 5: couple of nervous paces just walking around, some joggers running past.
Speaker 5: But at the moment, yes, it's all very quiet and
Speaker 5: still amongst.
Speaker 2: The contestant tense nervous atmosphere.
Speaker 5: Would you say, definitely very tense, very nerve in, just
Speaker 5: very deathly quiet. All I can really hear is the
Speaker 5: come of the generator. But I haven't heard a word
Speaker 5: out of a single contestant yet.
Speaker 2: And also what would really help is you and Jack
Speaker 2: going no way is anyone doing this. It's great to
Speaker 2: have Tony Robbins kind of motivational pump up speeches down
Speaker 2: there from the team that no way nowhere, it's so far.
Speaker 2: Forget it, guys, it's do your best. It's going in
Speaker 2: the era.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 7: Like I.
Speaker 5: I'm optimistic as always, but the realist in me, my
Speaker 5: brain is saying, this is going to take some sort
Speaker 5: of mind.
Speaker 2: All right, well I'll do it. Then I'll sticking a
Speaker 2: song when I come back. We'll get Jack moving in
Speaker 2: the speed boat where it's going to be. We're going
Speaker 2: to test everything out. Rie. I want you to get ready.
Speaker 2: Then after this song, you're going to fire off three
Speaker 2: shots over the yarraw see how far you can get.
Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, Well, Christian Connell's show podcast.
Speaker 2: I'll be heading down to join all the athletes, so
Speaker 2: take their place along the yarra. I'll be joining Jack
Speaker 2: and Rio. You can hear what happens to the next
Speaker 2: hour on the show, we're going to find out how
Speaker 2: far can you hear tennis ball over the hora or
Speaker 2: into the era? Anything could happen. Jan A Sour on
Speaker 2: the show on our longest Server for grabs, whoever who
Speaker 2: does hit it the furtherest, whether they make sixty five
Speaker 2: or not, all the seventy, that is the getting it
Speaker 2: over the era. It's tickets to the Australian Open this
Speaker 2: weekend on the men's final. These are amazing tickets. They're
Speaker 2: VIP court side. All right, let's go to Jack right now, Jack, Christian.
Speaker 13: I'm in the water. I repeat, I'm in the war. Well,
Speaker 13: I'm in the boat. I'm not like I didn't think.
Speaker 2: If you SSC and all that. So you're in the boat.
Speaker 2: This is where Jack's going to be this morning as
Speaker 2: the balls get fired over the era and dropping into
Speaker 2: the era. Jack, of course you're going to be ferrying
Speaker 2: all the balls out. No balls are left behind on
Speaker 2: this show.
Speaker 3: That's right.
Speaker 13: I'm going to pull it with me so that I
Speaker 13: can scoop up the balls as we hit them. Rio's
Speaker 13: on the stage at the moment, ready to send a
Speaker 13: few test balls down.
Speaker 2: Rio, are you in position?
Speaker 5: I'm in position Christian, But I feel like I should
Speaker 5: warn you we've got some very slippery rackets. I spent
Speaker 5: that whole song trying to vigorously racket. We're going to
Speaker 5: see some rackets go into the river, I think because
Speaker 5: these hands, the handles are very slippery.
Speaker 2: Oh no, Jack, Jack, you've now got to fish out
Speaker 2: balls and rackets.
Speaker 13: I said I would get the balls out. I said
Speaker 13: nothing about fishing.
Speaker 2: Okay, all right, and Jack, have you noticed yesterday Rhea
Speaker 2: was like, I'm going to go and fire a couple
Speaker 2: of big shots just to sort of get them going
Speaker 2: and motivated. Now he's moaning about a slippery shaft again.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 13: From where I you can see, it looks like a
Speaker 13: regular tennis tracker. I don't know why we would have
Speaker 13: given him an oily hand.
Speaker 2: Work, but the excuses are being layered on very thick
Speaker 2: right now, like slip stop all right, then, Rio, show
Speaker 2: us what you got. You can have three shots. When
Speaker 2: they're doing this for real in about ten minutes time,
Speaker 2: they only get one shot each. But Rio, let's see
Speaker 2: what you can do.
Speaker 5: All right, First hit coming, there's a there's a boat
Speaker 5: right in the middle of where I'm going to hit it,
Speaker 5: but we're going to try and avoid them.
Speaker 10: All.
Speaker 13: Right, here we go, old fisherman I was telling you about.
Speaker 2: I'll be careful. Okay, he's near the end as it is.
Speaker 13: Alright, Rio smacked it into the river. It's gone about
Speaker 13: forty five meters.
Speaker 5: Forty five.
Speaker 2: I think that's good for a first shot. Forty five.
Speaker 13: Now really send it.
Speaker 7: Okay, okay, you already hit.
Speaker 2: It this time. Oh no, that's not going to That
Speaker 2: sounded like hit the edge.
Speaker 7: Of it very bad.
Speaker 13: That was about forty meters.
Speaker 2: So are the surveyors in position who are going to
Speaker 2: be measuring the distance.
Speaker 13: Yes, there are actual surveys in high vis. They've got
Speaker 13: their tripods set up on all three sides of the well.
Speaker 13: There's two sides of yeah.
Speaker 2: Say wow, we overnight the thunders already changed the shape.
Speaker 2: But it's a three sided river now.
Speaker 13: They got they got three points set up, and I,
Speaker 13: I don't know. We'll figure it out before you get here,
Speaker 13: but I don't know how they tell us what.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was I was thinking that this would be
Speaker 2: where we would get this stuff moving, rather than do
Speaker 2: it when I get down there when it's showtime, guys.
Speaker 2: But again, it's all it's all going very very well.
Speaker 2: The microphones aren't working, which is why they're on the phones. Sure,
Speaker 2: we'll be faxing the show by the time I get
Speaker 2: down this morning. It'll be up on my space for
Speaker 2: you again. All right, Rao, third and final shots.
Speaker 13: Come on, send it, send It's good.
Speaker 5: That's better.
Speaker 13: That's fifty two meters.
Speaker 2: Fifty two meters? Wow, done, Jack, How do you know
Speaker 2: it's fifty two? Is that eyeballing it?
Speaker 13: That's eyeballing it from the boys.
Speaker 2: We can't be doing this, guys. Wait, wait, those surveyors up.
Speaker 2: What are they doing? Did they go an rdio already?
Speaker 2: Was it team break?
Speaker 13: They look?
Speaker 2: There will be What else are they doing?
Speaker 13: What should they hold up numbers like red Simons in? Yeah,
Speaker 13: I don't know how they give us the number.
Speaker 2: All right, we can work all this out. So Rio,
Speaker 2: your best score was fifty two meters.
Speaker 5: Great, yeah, good luck beating that.
Speaker 2: All right, I'm heading down. I'll see down there in
Speaker 2: a minute. A brighter.

Speaker 2: age groups, young guns, seniors, and veterans, all taking their turn.
Speaker 2: They get one shot to try and hit it over there.

Speaker 2: the camera the camera rather than just on me, to
Speaker 2: actually see the other side of the air. The weather

Speaker 2: seventy meters from where I am in this purpose built
Speaker 2: sort of theater of dreams or I only own mini
Speaker 2: rod labor here. It's seventy meters to the other side
Speaker 2: where Rio is and waving to Rio right now. Obviously

Speaker 2: had sixty seven meters. I still can't believe in the
Speaker 2: first four hits we've had sixty seven meters. Jack.
Speaker 3: We're so close to someone actually clearing them the river,
Speaker 3: which is seventy meters long. We've actually closed down the river.
Speaker 3: No boat were allowed to pass the power of this.
Speaker 3: I just saw two people carrying a kayak along the shore,
Speaker 3: so I guess they got out in side my fifty
Speaker 3: meters down. Now they're going to walk past us and
Speaker 3: get back in the water again.
Speaker 2: Okay, So we've been doing this in age brackets. We've
Speaker 2: just had the young guns. The top one there goes
Speaker 2: Sudler hits off. The top one for each of the

Speaker 2: we bring hot shot Dave, who's our winning this morning,
Speaker 2: he can have a victory lap on this boat that

Speaker 2: the Australia and the men's final, but really the big
Speaker 2: prize is to go into this metallic old tiney for
Speaker 2: a strange and not unnecessary really Tree Lapp and he's
Speaker 2: in the bike in the boats as we wave a
