Speaker 1: Quest.
Speaker 2: Yeah, welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 3: Are we walking?
Speaker 4: I want to keep wiping? But wait, we're off here.
Speaker 5: Put it down.
Speaker 2: Christian O'Connell Show, Gold one O four point three.
Speaker 5: Hey, good morning Thursday morning. Welcome to the show. Good
Speaker 5: morning Jack, Hello Christian.
Speaker 4: Hello, Patsy.
Speaker 5: You sell one of those correspondents down the line where
Speaker 5: they go Hello from Cape Town, Hello to Jack.
Speaker 4: I'm here in the studio.
Speaker 5: Good morning Patsy.
Speaker 3: Hey, hell are you?
Speaker 5: I'm good? So this is an exciting day for the
Speaker 5: radio station. Do we all see the horrible graphic coming in?
Speaker 5: Miss that pool brown cake, brown bit the gold logo,
Speaker 5: come on, get rid of it. So the inspiration about
Speaker 5: that deep bige that they use, and it is someone's
Speaker 5: done a PLoP over a birthday cake, a happy birthday gold.
Speaker 4: The gold gold as a color when it's actually gold
Speaker 4: and Shimmery looks amazed when they put it into like
Speaker 4: a two D version.
Speaker 5: It just looks so anyway, Happy birthday, Lane Birthday.
Speaker 4: I'm wearing my gold jumper today.
Speaker 5: You are, yes, thank you very much. Patsy is very
Speaker 5: excited today. You matched to find later on's morn. Then
Speaker 5: we got a whole hour's worth of music from nineteen
Speaker 5: ninety one. This radio station Gold thirty years old today.
Speaker 5: For Huggy, who's the midfield general here at the radio station,
Speaker 5: was on the original line up thirty years ago. Jack
Speaker 5: and I just been looking at an amazing photo of him.
Speaker 5: Is that from thirty years ago?
Speaker 4: That's from thirty years ago? A bright eyed boy, Huggy
Speaker 4: in the Gold studios in nineteen ninety one.
Speaker 5: Totally, what's remarkable. You don't get in any job these days, right,
Speaker 5: it's quite rare to be in it for thirty years.
Speaker 5: What is rawer than rare, it's anyone because this industry
Speaker 5: eats people up. The only reason we're doing the show
Speaker 5: is because someone else before it's got eaten up and
Speaker 5: span out. Someone will come at some point trying and
Speaker 5: eat us up and spin us out. We just need
Speaker 5: to be slightly ahead of that, eat them before they
Speaker 5: come to eat us. So anyway, him surviving is amazing, honestly,
Speaker 5: a survivor of radio swimming with sharks. How he's managed
Speaker 5: to do it, he must have eaten on so many
Speaker 5: people who come together. I didn't believe sometimes that maybe
Speaker 5: he got five years ago, but he still comes in.
Speaker 5: He just doesn't want to tell his wife. He's like
Speaker 5: our still shop. You don't need to pay me, don't
Speaker 5: worry about it. But I can't tell Jenny she will
Speaker 5: go ape. So when he's here and we'll have a
Speaker 5: chat with on the show today, make sure you say
Speaker 5: happy birthday to Huggy as well, because I've got quite
Speaker 5: a few lovely emails yesterday from some of you who
Speaker 5: were listening when it switched over and became Gold FM,
Speaker 5: and it was a big deal FM. I know now
Speaker 5: it's all about online dot com and that kind of
Speaker 5: world and Spotify and streaming, but FM radio used to
Speaker 5: be like a cool thing, didn't. I remember him in
Speaker 5: jingles like we've got ten thousand megawats of music power
Speaker 5: and when I was dreaming of one, they would I
Speaker 5: ever be lucky enough to work in radio on FMDJ, Well,
Speaker 5: I will modulate the frequencies for my audience every night.
Speaker 5: That's some kind of crazed bandleader. Stereo music, stereo Dolby
Speaker 5: surround sound. So anyway, thirty one thirty today and Patsy's
Speaker 5: got some news handlines from thirty years ago and including
Speaker 5: why on for doing this? Done? A lot of detective
Speaker 5: work late into the yesterday evening. Have you found the
Speaker 5: original your news theme? Yes?
Speaker 4: I have.
Speaker 5: This is great. I can't wait to hear this. Does
Speaker 5: it sound like thirty years ago? Does it sound like
Speaker 5: nineties radio?
Speaker 3: I love it? You know what it doesn't. I think
Speaker 3: it's a bit ageless.
Speaker 4: I was surprised it's the same one that we got.
Speaker 5: No, it's not so logo. Ain't change the old Pey Brown.
Speaker 5: Let's not major on that today. Can one of the
Speaker 5: producers go and take a picture of that cake. It
Speaker 5: looks like someone stopped jo one.
Speaker 3: I'll send it to you now. I took it on the.
Speaker 5: Way, told you to stop doing that. The more we
Speaker 5: don't need to see your morning routine. I don't need that.
Speaker 5: It looks regular, see spensis. All right, that's player song.
Speaker 5: Now I feel like we need to reset the show.
Speaker 5: They stop talking about the brown logo, Happy Birthday Gold.
Speaker 5: What a shame that thirty years on this is what
Speaker 5: they get for a breakfast show. So this is some
Speaker 5: hucke you report to me yesterday. He's passing the batton
Speaker 5: onto me and I'm like, I'm not sure you've got
Speaker 5: your past.
Speaker 1: The back the Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 5: Many moons ago, he still worked for a radio station
Speaker 5: in London called XFAM and our mid morning guy was
Speaker 5: the keyboard play in Jesus Jones and Jesus Jones were
Speaker 5: a great indie band of like the early nineties International
Speaker 5: Bright Young Thing is another great song of theirs, right,
Speaker 5: And I remember when the first Day rocked up at
Speaker 5: this radio station and I guess it was a bit
Speaker 5: like Triple Jay and he was like, yeah, I was.
Speaker 5: He's up in a skateboard. He was in his late
Speaker 5: thirties and I took a huge dislike to this guy
Speaker 5: right skateboard under his arms, like you're an adult? Is
Speaker 5: that for your kid? Then put it down and he
Speaker 5: had a wallet on a chain. Do you remember that? Yes?
Speaker 6: I had.
Speaker 4: I was fourteen.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, that's okay, right, but again grown ass man
Speaker 5: one on the chain or that's something of this guy
Speaker 5: Van train is you know where you had the whole
Speaker 5: look look come out of a catalog and he goes, ye,
Speaker 5: I was in Jesus Jones. I went really because you
Speaker 5: remembers the singer and the rest of my as what
Speaker 5: were you? He goes the keyboard player it is hard
Speaker 5: for a keyboard player, isn't it. There's nothing really that memorable.
Speaker 4: It's hard to look cool as the keyboard player on stage.
Speaker 5: Yeah. So this guy said, yeah, well people would remember
Speaker 5: me because basically the band they called me Ian the
Speaker 5: keyboard breaker Baker. His name was Ian Baker, and so
Speaker 5: when they were doing gigs to get attention, he would
Speaker 5: just smash the keyboard. It's not like Pete Townsend or
Speaker 5: Keith Moon during the drums, guitars going oh he's smashed
Speaker 5: his cork eight one thousand die. That's going to be
Speaker 5: a nightmare again. That demo mode back working tomorrow.
Speaker 4: It's not quite They break those big old chunky keys.
Speaker 5: Must take ages because there's solid things. Well, you might
Speaker 5: lose one key.
Speaker 4: Are breaking the keyboard. Now we'll do another song, but
Speaker 4: it's broken.
Speaker 5: Yesterday I had four for the kids. I made for
Speaker 5: tea last night, right, a good classic bangers and mash.
Speaker 3: Oh, we had bangers and mash too last night.
Speaker 5: Do you love a nice midweet bangers and mashes? A tree,
Speaker 5: isn't it? Do you do gravy with it?
Speaker 7: Oh?
Speaker 3: Yes, an onion gravy.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I fried some onions as well, and I
Speaker 5: tried a new mash recipe yesterday as well that had cheese, milk, garlic,
Speaker 5: and not just garlic once you start national but as
Speaker 5: you're boiling the potatoes, Patsy, you put a spoonful of
Speaker 5: garlic in there as well with the potatoes to start
Speaker 5: the garlic process.
Speaker 3: What have you got vampires over that side of town?
Speaker 5: Yeah, we have bayside and some finey chopped spring onions.
Speaker 4: This is the mash that I needed as a kid,
Speaker 4: because we had bangers and mash every night. My mum
Speaker 4: wasn't home because there was dad's only meal that he
Speaker 4: could do.
Speaker 5: Yeah. Man, just what is it about the old school dad?
Speaker 5: He only had one thing, a terrible spaghetti boling nase,
Speaker 5: which shouldn't even be possible, but he put peas in
Speaker 5: it for some reason. I've never worked out to this day.
Speaker 5: I mean all over Italy, you know. Now, then you
Speaker 5: put peas in this?
Speaker 4: Well, my dad didn't put anything in the mash. It
Speaker 4: was just like crunched up potatoes.
Speaker 5: Suicide, so dry. It's something they get in prison in movies,
Speaker 5: is it.
Speaker 4: We had a couple of years where Mum was working
Speaker 4: late every night, and for every night we had bang
Speaker 4: as a match.
Speaker 5: You know, it's the same thing. The only time my
Speaker 5: dad ever cooked, I think he must have good I'm
Speaker 5: not making this up right. Three to five times in
Speaker 5: my childhood, right was when mum was working late, and
Speaker 5: when I used to dread when Mum went, oh, i'll
Speaker 5: be home later on, like, oh god, the old man's
Speaker 5: spag bowl, the flipping peace. Why does he put peas
Speaker 5: in there? I reckon? We could make a cookbook to
Speaker 5: a very slim cookbook of your dad's one dish one
Speaker 5: meal corn in Now? Was this you grown up? Where
Speaker 5: if mum weren't late, your dad would have to step
Speaker 5: up to the to the stove and make his one
Speaker 5: dish he could do. It's always something very basic, I guess,
Speaker 5: like bang as a mash or spag bowl. If that
Speaker 5: was your day, give us a call. What was his
Speaker 5: one meal that he could put off?
Speaker 1: But Christian Connell Show podcast?
Speaker 5: Was this your child had grown up? Your mum had
Speaker 5: to work late. Who was going to do dinner? Uh? Oh?
Speaker 5: The other person? The VP?
Speaker 4: My pens doesn't really ever need any official duties of
Speaker 4: any kind, And all of a.
Speaker 5: Sudden, theres no kind of jurisdiction or power whatsoever. He
Speaker 5: knows it. You know this is me, By the way,
Speaker 5: this story's still all these years later, and they are
Speaker 5: left to fend for you and cook for you. You ultimately go,
Speaker 5: oh no, because he's only got one dish. So today
Speaker 5: we want to know, is is you? It was for
Speaker 5: Jack grown up? It was for me Jack. Your dad's
Speaker 5: one dish.
Speaker 4: Was very basic, bangers and mash, no flavor in the
Speaker 4: mashed potatoes. You're allowed to have tomato sauce on the sausages,
Speaker 4: and that was it.
Speaker 5: Gravy loss, gravulous, so just dry. For me, it was
Speaker 5: spaghetti bolognaise. But wait with that in peace? Yeah, no,
Speaker 5: it's not an English thing, that isn't it some kind
Speaker 5: of delicacy? Were we just pour peas in a spag bolt?
Speaker 7: Dope?
Speaker 5: Just my dad? So this morning, what's thisue? Growing up?
Speaker 5: What was your dad's go to dish? Damien?
Speaker 7: Good morning morning, here are you going?

Speaker 7: he would just cut up vegetables, so carrot, he's potato
Speaker 7: felt a bit of hunging in there for five and
Speaker 7: then get the worst beef stew beef you could get cheap,
Speaker 7: chump that cheap.
Speaker 4: The butcher was saving it to throw away to the dogs,
Speaker 4: and your dad goes.
Speaker 5: Just basically the cow's eyes and eyebrows and his bumhole.
Speaker 8: Past its use by day. Used to throw it in
Speaker 8: the pot and just undercook it.
Speaker 5: When I met the veggies, they're all that really big chunk.
Speaker 5: They're not die so they're all lumpy.
Speaker 9: Are they?
Speaker 5: No care?
Speaker 4: Half?
Speaker 5: That's it your onion. Your stomach can digest this.
Speaker 8: So it was just it was boiled water and just
Speaker 8: came out of the veggie and then they'd put it
Speaker 8: in a bowl and he'd serve it up to you
Speaker 8: and you get kids enjoy this.
Speaker 5: From some sort of the kensi in workhouse.

Speaker 7: He's going to dish was boiled CODO it sounds like
Speaker 7: a punishment.
Speaker 5: Hey, anymore that boiled cod for dinner for you? Okay,

Speaker 7: Now we get a couple of eggs with it? But uh,
Speaker 7: boiled cod was.

Speaker 5: that you can't screw up technically? Boyd? All Right, Neil,
Speaker 5: thank you very much you call. Take care, have a
Speaker 5: good day.
Speaker 1: Well, Christian know Connell's show podcast.
Speaker 5: We're taking about too. When you were growing up, did
Speaker 5: your dad? Dads didn't really Actually, when I'm honest, now,
Speaker 5: my dad didn't do a huge you know, he worked
Speaker 5: very hard, but minimalist in turns of almost like a
Speaker 5: zen light budd in terms of what he actually did
Speaker 5: to be involved in the running of the house. Now
Speaker 5: i'm the other side of work, I actually say he
Speaker 5: did sodle. Basically, I keep saying you had it easy,
Speaker 5: you had it. He was probably the prime time to
Speaker 5: be a dad in the seventies and eighties where my
Speaker 5: mom would go, I'd heard him come home from what dad?
Speaker 5: Don't disturb your dad for an hour. We weren't allowed
Speaker 5: to bother him for the first hour. The moment I
Speaker 5: get in from this so called job, it's on this problem.
Speaker 5: My wife is leaving the houses. I'm just pulling up
Speaker 5: to the house. It's like, see how the couple of
Speaker 5: hours you do with them? I don't know. We're asking you. Also,
Speaker 5: like growing up when dad had to cook, did you
Speaker 5: just have that one go to dish that he could
Speaker 5: barely pull off? We want to know what was it?
Speaker 5: Nine four one o four three? What this would be
Speaker 5: the world's worst cook? But wouldn't it red time? Nine seconds?
Speaker 5: Do not finally chop the vegetals and chop some of them,
Speaker 5: just chuck them in that pan. Let's go to uh
Speaker 5: to me coome morning worn and Christian, I'm good, buddy,
Speaker 5: dans to call the show. What was your dad's one dish?
Speaker 10: Ah?
Speaker 11: So his dish was a specialty called gotch and it.
Speaker 5: Was the sound nice? Does it start?
Speaker 12: Yeah?
Speaker 11: No, it's it's terrible. My sister and I happily named
Speaker 11: it and they would both go to the fridge and
Speaker 11: pull out whatever was going off, whatever had mold on it.
Speaker 11: Think it would you just be scraped off, chopped up
Speaker 11: roughly and chucked into a pan. Add a splash of
Speaker 11: soy sauce, and that was dinner.
Speaker 4: I'm actually guilty of that. Anytime I'm worried that my
Speaker 4: dishes are good soy sauces.
Speaker 5: It's just a smoke screen for a whole load of food crimes,
Speaker 5: isn't it. You really see Jamie have a good rams
Speaker 5: and then chuck half a bottle of soy sauce on it,
Speaker 5: just mulch it in. They won't know you screwed it
Speaker 5: up earlier.
Speaker 1: It was terrible.
Speaker 11: The only way that we could fix it was by
Speaker 11: getting half a block of cheese and grating it. I
Speaker 11: was trying to get something tasty out of it.
Speaker 13: Is terrible.
Speaker 5: That's good, Toby, Thank you very much. You kill mate.
Speaker 5: Take care, Thanks Kate, Good morning, Hello Kate. Tell us
Speaker 5: about Dad. First of all, what was that's name is
Speaker 5: his name?
Speaker 14: That's dead? Name's David.
Speaker 5: What did David do as his dish?
Speaker 14: Well, he had a specialty where he'd just get a
Speaker 14: pressure cooker and chop up potato, pumpkin, carrot and put
Speaker 14: peas in and.
Speaker 5: The old piece.
Speaker 14: You know it's the most Yeah, always pea.
Speaker 5: Cheap and easy. You can't screw up peace. So anyway,
Speaker 5: you're back to the pressure cooker pumpkin from loads of
Speaker 5: leftover ones going cheap after Halloween.
Speaker 14: No, he just you know, he'd have all these ingredients
Speaker 14: in the fridge or around place in the pantry and
Speaker 14: he just chopped them all up and that was it.
Speaker 14: He just put in the pressure cooker for about ten minutes.
Speaker 14: And it was called yuck because of the side effects
Speaker 14: because we were all flatulant afterwards.
Speaker 5: I'm not supposed to say that we've got yug and God,
Speaker 5: so basically all you had was just a load of
Speaker 5: sort of vegetables. That's It's not when you go to
Speaker 5: a health farm, terrible juicing, even they put it in
Speaker 5: a blender. Yours is so blended, fairly digested food. Now,
Speaker 5: wonder you want flats. You're story breaking down that pumpkin
Speaker 5: now all.
Speaker 12: These years later, that's all right.
Speaker 5: Flatchling Kate lovely did to hear from you. Thanks you, Cord,
Speaker 5: take care that squeeze. One last morning, who we got here.
Speaker 9: Morgan, Hey, good morning, Happy birthday.
Speaker 5: Thank you very much, Morgan Morgan. What was your dad's
Speaker 5: one dish.
Speaker 9: Well, Christian dad's dreadful dish? I would call it was
Speaker 9: lambs fry liver with mashed potatoes. However, it was too
Speaker 9: lazy to pill the potatoes, so that would be mixed
Speaker 9: up in with the match.
Speaker 5: I did that yesterday a cookie bother. I thought, these
Speaker 5: are tiny, these skins. Are they really sure? It's a
Speaker 5: bit more crunch for these kids?
Speaker 4: What about those nuptial things that you know, you get
Speaker 4: to know.
Speaker 5: I just mashed it all up and just hope that
Speaker 5: the sauce to cover, so he.
Speaker 9: Would put the gravy on top, would try and hide
Speaker 9: the flavor. But the gravy was home brands, no magic
Speaker 9: gravy in airhouse, and it tasted like it wasn't mixed properly.
Speaker 9: So you eating my gravy pears, Oh god, you.
Speaker 5: Remember that it was like flour and like lumpy and not.
Speaker 5: It has to be really warm, doesn't it. Gravies well
Speaker 5: be like luke tepid.
Speaker 9: Yeah, eat lands rising find as it is. Then you're
Speaker 9: eating that gritty picked flour.
Speaker 5: Too many textures going on there are there a lot
Speaker 5: of chewing going on, too much chewing.
Speaker 9: It's traumatizing. As soon as you mentioned mashed potato on
Speaker 9: the radio.
Speaker 5: I triggered you this morning and I'm really sorry Morgan.
Speaker 5: All right, thanks you cool mate, take care.
Speaker 9: Come ahead back.
Speaker 2: This is the Christian o'commel show podcast.

Speaker 5: right now. My dad Joe is currently looking after my
Speaker 5: mum who's back in COVID at home on his own.
Speaker 5: Bless him. If there's anything we can do to help out.
Speaker 5: He only has one dish that he still makes where
Speaker 5: then he really needs some help. Then, in all serious
Speaker 5: is can we send him some ready meals you're going
Speaker 5: to find this next year, right when your little bub
Speaker 5: turns up. Right. One thing that I remember once when
Speaker 5: Ruby was born, our first child, right, someone knocked at
Speaker 5: the door about three days Ruby's only three days old,
Speaker 5: and I was off on paternity leave and we were
Speaker 5: just worn out, exhausted, shell shots. You got no idea
Speaker 5: what you're doing. We'd read all the books, we've done
Speaker 5: all the course, so you're still like not doing what
Speaker 5: the lady said we would do. And there's a knock
Speaker 5: at the door, and I was like, oh, God of
Speaker 5: the head, is that just One of my wife's friends said,
Speaker 5: I'm not staying. I've major as the Sanya just warm
Speaker 5: it up for five minutes, and it was the greatest
Speaker 5: thing you can give someone. Sometimes is ready meals or
Speaker 5: just food that you don't even have to think about
Speaker 5: doing you're so tired. So yeah, if we can help
Speaker 5: your old man out. But anyway, shout out to Joe
Speaker 5: right now. I hope your wife's okay. His dish was
Speaker 5: homemade chips and fried eggs, but the egg would be
Speaker 5: barely properly fried and the chips were still really potatoing.
Speaker 5: There is no excuse, I'm sorry, Joe. There is no
Speaker 5: excuse to scrub chips. Is there the easiest? Come on, Sharon,
Speaker 5: Thank you very much. I hope mum and dad were okay.
Speaker 5: The other day we were talking about Eminem and how

Speaker 5: near Detroit or in Detroit who might be able to
Speaker 5: go and actually tried. There's only one. It's basically a
Speaker 5: spag ball sandwich, isn't it.
Speaker 4: I think it's normal spaghetti, and then it's spaghetti sandwich.
Speaker 5: That's the main by the way, that's the menu, and
Speaker 5: a Canni soda and then we get this message.
Speaker 10: Hey, Christian, Jack and Pats, I was catching up with

Speaker 10: which is about fifty miles away from Detroit. So I've
Speaker 10: moved here to take up a virology research role at
Speaker 10: the University of Michigan. I'm not sure of my immediate availabilities.
Speaker 10: We have lots of cells and viruses on the go
Speaker 10: at the moment, but if you do need somebody in

Speaker 17: Oh, ah Bon the Christian, this is Frank Francisco frant thesk,
Speaker 17: whichever you find the most appropriate.
Speaker 5: It's Francisco. He's not from San Francisco, he's Francisco. And
Speaker 5: I think he's from Spain. He didn't sound very Californian.
Speaker 5: I'm a master of audio.
Speaker 17: Ah Bon the Christian. This is Frank Francisco frant theirsk
Speaker 17: whichever you find the most appropriate. From pret nears in Spain,
Speaker 17: and I might well be your ideal correspondent for Barcelona.
Speaker 17: I'm fixed fifty six years old Dutchman in my third
Speaker 17: or fourth prime who lives in Elim for over twenty years,
Speaker 17: where I was exposed to and spoiled by Christian interestinct fact,
Speaker 17: for myself as a student, I had a totally undeserved
Speaker 17: reputation to always relieve myself from the highest point around
Speaker 17: after having consumed a few pints too many, and true
Speaker 17: as reputation was, I did, therefore climb Durham Castle in England,
Speaker 17: find the outside walls too, relief myself from the highest storrant.
Speaker 17: I live in seaches and something people might not know
Speaker 17: about it. There's an annual horror film festival of teachers
Speaker 17: when there's a parade through the town with local people
Speaker 17: dressing up as zombies and other scary characters. That and
Speaker 17: they do that so realistically the some tourists can't believe
Speaker 17: it's not the film set itself.
Speaker 5: Thank you very much.
Speaker 4: Francisco did his accent change several arts three times.
Speaker 5: I actually thought it was Jason Bourne. One thing about Francisco,
Speaker 5: if that is you, by the way, many disguises, Carl Bryer.
Speaker 1: You're listening to the Christiano Carl Show podcast.
Speaker 5: Many of you have been sharing your stories about how
Speaker 5: you used to listen to this radio station thirty odd
Speaker 5: years ago. Steve Christian I did used to listen thirty
Speaker 5: years ago. I remember the year, well, nineteen ninety one.
Speaker 5: We recently got married. We're working very hard to build
Speaker 5: up a small business on a shoe string budget with
Speaker 5: interest rates as low as sixteen percent. Well, yeah, tough times,
Speaker 5: that said, Steve. You know radio, some parts of radio
Speaker 5: don't really like to move on that much today from
Speaker 5: some of the competitions they do. Christian thirty years ago,
Speaker 5: nineteen ninety one. There are a couple of competitions that
Speaker 5: remember the radio station Gold then you still have people
Speaker 5: drive around to see if you had one of the
Speaker 5: station's car stickers in the front of you house. Sadly,
Speaker 5: we never won. However, you did do a thing called
Speaker 5: the cash Call. You had to call up and register
Speaker 5: to be on the list to play. I think the
Speaker 5: station's still doing it, just under a new name. And
Speaker 5: then every how the DJ would read out a dollar
Speaker 5: amount shortly after they would make a call to one
Speaker 5: of the registered players. Well, my mum kept her list
Speaker 5: by the radio, wrote down the amount every time, and
Speaker 5: then this one day she was out the back on
Speaker 5: the VERANDAH only just heard the amount. I still remember.
Speaker 5: It was one and eighty eight dollars and three cents.
Speaker 5: The phone rang it was Gold one oh four point three.
Speaker 5: We won, mom, and I'd put that one. It's a
Speaker 5: great use. Took us on amazing holiday to the great Barrier.
Speaker 5: Reef lovely memories of this radio station. Happy thirtieth birthday
Speaker 5: to Gold. That's from Juley. That's lovely, Thank you very much.
Speaker 5: Got this great one as well on our answer machine.
Speaker 5: Here from Matthew.
Speaker 13: Hi Christian, I'm Matthew and I'm just bringing up to
Speaker 13: wish you guys a happy thirtieth birthday. I remember where
Speaker 13: it all started. Thirty years ago. I was in boarding school.
Speaker 13: I was doing Year twelve. Probably the first song that
Speaker 13: I remember hearing on Goal one o four was Donner
Speaker 13: by Richie Bellen's. Back in those days, Yeah, it was
Speaker 13: only fifties and sixties that you played, and it was great.
Speaker 13: I remember getting through on the old dial phone to
Speaker 13: request a late night love dedication to a girl I
Speaker 13: liked at the time, Vicki, and the song was being
Speaker 13: My Baby by the Ronettes. So that's going way back
Speaker 13: to the dawn of rock and roll. So anyway, Christian
Speaker 13: and team have a fantastic thirtieth birthday and look forward
Speaker 13: to many more great years and memories on God when.
Speaker 5: I thought, Matthew, thank you they very much there and
Speaker 5: all these lovely memories. I think the last song we
Speaker 5: played today. I know, obviously we've got some great stuff
Speaker 5: lined up from nineteen ninety one. But for Matthew, of
Speaker 5: those late night love radio shows, I used to love.
Speaker 4: That sho make a comeback. We don't have any in
Speaker 4: Australia anymore.
Speaker 5: Surely now more than ever, people are lonely and need
Speaker 5: a late night love DJ. I used to love that
Speaker 5: this will be a great bang. Listen to the production
Speaker 5: on this what a song? You're too gosh late night love?
Speaker 5: Do you remember the DJ's name? Who you had for
Speaker 5: late night love? Who do you We had a guy
Speaker 5: in the UK when all over the UK had an
Speaker 5: amazing voice. You couldn't go anywhere near those. My voice
Speaker 5: isn't good enough. My parent's to be a late night
Speaker 5: DJ is called Graham Torrington and they'd always have these these.
Speaker 5: The calls would go on for ages, wouldn't they. They go, Oh, Hi,
Speaker 5: you're listening to late night love songs. Julie's on the line. Now, Julie,
Speaker 5: what song would we like to play for you? And why?
Speaker 5: Then you tell it. They go on for aids about
Speaker 5: some story that went all over the places. Who did
Speaker 5: you have?
Speaker 4: Who is our guys? Rich Richard Mercer, big pipes, big voice,
Speaker 4: deeper voice, deeper.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's it. I reckon they spoke that that in
Speaker 5: real life. But that really really high pitched voice.
Speaker 4: You've got a deep enough voice, You've got, it's got.
Speaker 5: To be a lot deeper to be a late night guy.
Speaker 1: The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 5: Christianer Show is called Richard Mercer's Love song Dedications. Thank
Speaker 5: you justin I've just seen Next year Valentine's Day is
Speaker 5: on a Monday. Why don't you and I try and
Speaker 5: do a late night hour of radio but on the
Speaker 5: Breakfast show, recreate late night conditions. It's on a Monday
Speaker 5: next year Valentine's Day. We need to we need to
Speaker 5: find some kind of I'm sure the engineers going to
Speaker 5: do this with a lower our voices to get them
Speaker 5: near to those late night radio.
Speaker 4: God special microphones drop us down.
Speaker 5: Uh So, two weeks ago, Jackie Boy standardsall with the
Speaker 5: amazing news that you and your a lovely wife band
Speaker 5: are to give birth to your first child next year.
Speaker 5: So just why we understand the dates late March.
Speaker 4: No, March seven is the due date early March.
Speaker 5: And we've got to check up on that, by the way,
Speaker 5: because I know any chance for you to get some
Speaker 5: time off the show, you will take it.
Speaker 4: And we've just gone eighteen weeks on last Friday.
Speaker 5: Oh congratulations.
Speaker 4: Did you guys do when you were in pregnancy the
Speaker 4: progress photos where you watch the belly get bigger and
Speaker 4: bigger every week?
Speaker 3: No, I wish we had.
Speaker 5: Wish we had. It wasn't that kind of world then
Speaker 5: where everything was documented, But I wish we had. We
Speaker 5: still got some of the midwife notes and stuff like that.
Speaker 5: We try to keep as much good, but now we didn't.
Speaker 5: People didn't think to do that.
Speaker 4: No, yeah, I guess now you do. Like now there's
Speaker 4: like special boards you hold up to say like this
Speaker 4: is week one, week two, and then you do it
Speaker 4: with the baby when the baby's born. But we're doing it,
Speaker 4: but a hipster version of it. Biankle wants them done
Speaker 4: with polaroid photos.
Speaker 5: Of course, So what are you doing daily? Week? Not daily?
Speaker 5: Because they're really expensive. That was about twenty bucks or
Speaker 5: like five on the film, isn't it.
Speaker 4: That's the problem. We're doing them weekly, but even that
Speaker 4: it's going to cost.
Speaker 5: You a bomb. It's because a kid won't have a
Speaker 5: cop That was saying, great polaroid hipster photos that will
Speaker 5: fade rapidly.
Speaker 4: They work out to about two dollars.
Speaker 5: Perfect photo, you can't screw it up. There's no retouch
Speaker 5: or editing it.
Speaker 4: But with the polaroid camera, it's not like you're looking
Speaker 4: through the viewfinder and that's exactly what you take the
Speaker 4: photo of. It's sort of off center, so you've got
Speaker 4: to adjust for that. And I keep taking photos where
Speaker 4: I've cropped out half of Bianca Yah and taking a
Speaker 4: photo of the wall.
Speaker 5: And also because sometimes the light, because it looks when
Speaker 5: it's right, they look and I love those post.
Speaker 4: Light is so hard to get it right. It's got
Speaker 4: three settings indoor, outdoor with the cloud cover, outdoor, full sun.
Speaker 5: But the camera to size because you could be out
Speaker 5: in a beautiful sunny day, not a cloud in the sky,
Speaker 5: in a field with no shade. Suddenly it looks like
Speaker 5: it was taken in a summarine, which is so dark.
Speaker 4: So we've got a lot of the super dark photos
Speaker 4: where you can just see like the tip of her
Speaker 4: nose or if they're in good light, she's cropped out halfway.
Speaker 4: I'm getting in trouble for it because I'm the operator
Speaker 4: of the camera and we're chewing through these expensive film.
Speaker 5: Listen, I remember two bucks ago they are now, So
Speaker 5: every time you're strown up, that's another two dollars, that's.
Speaker 4: Another two dollars.
Speaker 5: And I know what you're like with money. He doesn't
Speaker 5: like to dish it out. He's probably stolen that poloid
Speaker 5: as well.
Speaker 4: Well, that's the thing. I went online to try and
Speaker 4: find a discount version of the film.
Speaker 5: This kid's gonna have like a discount buggy.
Speaker 4: We're going through it. There's ten shots per cartridge, so
Speaker 4: you put the cartridge in, you get ten shots. So
Speaker 4: I'm going through them too quickly, once per week for
Speaker 4: the folks.
Speaker 5: Can you find cheaper you know what? You get that
Speaker 5: real dirt cheap printer toner cartries, but it's it's rubbish.
Speaker 5: It runs out really quickly.
Speaker 4: I thought I did, so I went online and found
Speaker 4: a discount version, thirty Shots in the Park. I was like, oh,
Speaker 4: this is great for the same price that it cost
Speaker 4: ten dollars. They came yesterday and it's a special wedding
Speaker 4: version where the borders were all made out of confetti.
Speaker 4: It looks so cheap.
Speaker 5: Your wife must be like, listen, I'm growing a person
Speaker 5: in me. Get this right, You've got one job.
Speaker 1: Job Jack Christian Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 5: Scenes in the studio yesterday. As in the last twenty
Speaker 5: minutes of the show, Jack Pot spelled a hot chocolate.
Speaker 5: This is how wild we are on this show, my friends,
Speaker 5: these two guys, me and Jackie Boy probably most dangerous
Speaker 5: men in radio. Fact, Jackie Boar was tucking into a
Speaker 5: hot chocolate. You don't care.
Speaker 4: I'd hardly even tucked in.
Speaker 5: That's the sad thing is he look at it and
Speaker 5: stare down at hot chokola eight thirty am. Friends, But
Speaker 5: he got spelt into but his most important thing in
Speaker 5: his world, which is that laptop. Why do you bring
Speaker 5: it in? By the way, this is how you have
Speaker 5: a terminal here.
Speaker 4: No, this is not a real this computer thing, I.
Speaker 5: Mean it's not real. We've installed toys r US kids
Speaker 5: one for you. I did radio.
Speaker 4: This computer in front of me only runs the phone system.
Speaker 5: I don't let you have access to Google. Is that
Speaker 5: because there was an IT report that they traced to you.
Speaker 5: Your IP address where you were downloading illegal hooky movies show.
Speaker 4: I rebut that those engineers.
Speaker 5: Now everything about us. What they traced it to your IP.
Speaker 4: No, they said I was running torrents, and I was.
Speaker 5: You are a torrent runner. I stand by that accusation.
Speaker 5: But anyway, you're bringing your little kids laptop there.
Speaker 4: I bring in a normal adult laptop and I spilt
Speaker 4: the hot chocolate all the way through it. And I
Speaker 4: don't know if you ever spilt like spilling water is
Speaker 4: one thing, but milk, it gets all claggy under there and.
Speaker 5: Very the hot chocolate gloopy.
Speaker 4: Now the worst thing is today it's got a real
Speaker 4: stale milk smell about the keyboard.
Speaker 5: Oh cry for this guy. Please? Do they candle it
Speaker 5: visual midday?
Speaker 4: Well you can't smell it from over there, but I
Speaker 4: can smell it from over here.
Speaker 5: Well I didn't need to because it's moran. The first
Speaker 5: thing you did should come is you said a load
Speaker 5: to me and you started sniffing your laptop. I thought
Speaker 5: you start having some problems this week. Anyway, It took
Speaker 5: him about an hour yesterday to try, and rain Man
Speaker 5: was like holding it up to the light, making sure
Speaker 5: that he got all everything wiped out. When you spill something,
Speaker 5: it is a nightmare, isn't it. And whether it's on
Speaker 5: electrical equipment, your phone or the worst thing is I
Speaker 5: once saw a in a pub, a woman. She was
Speaker 5: bringing some drinks over to somebody, and there must have
Speaker 5: been about eight pints on it, right, and she you
Speaker 5: know when you see someone tripping, you were like, it's
Speaker 5: going over All the pints went down the back of
Speaker 5: a woman and her hair like just larger. It was
Speaker 5: like a cascade of water. For they weren't even the
Speaker 5: table getting the drinks. Even than that, he was poured
Speaker 5: on the back. And this you know when someone's really
Speaker 5: angry and they can't mask it. This woman with this
Speaker 5: caroll was so angry as an onlooker, one of the
Speaker 5: favorite things I've ever seen in my life. I actually
Speaker 5: turned round, like, what is gonna happen here? This is amazing.
Speaker 5: Perhaps you've even involved in a spillage.
Speaker 3: Several actually one memorable. Speaking of jack though, I remember
Speaker 3: when I just got my pea plates, Mum wanted me
Speaker 3: to go and get two ladies of milk in my
Speaker 3: car in my little laser, so I sat it on
Speaker 3: the floor of the passenger side of the car and
Speaker 3: it tipped over when I ran around the corner, and
Speaker 3: the whole thing all through the bottom of my little
Speaker 3: laser and I never got.
Speaker 5: Soaked through that milk and milk in the sun that's smelling.
Speaker 3: Oh it was foul. You never get the smell out.
Speaker 3: I'm afraid your laptop is destined for the bin.
Speaker 4: I don't know, this is only six months old.
Speaker 5: You're ruined, im Patsy. So he downloads all those dodgy movies.
Speaker 5: Now it's Torrington right now, and he comes into work
Speaker 5: to piggyback on the Wi Fi. Here all right, one
Speaker 5: white phone in this Morning Spinaches Christian Connell's show podcast.
Speaker 5: The worst thing is that when you spill something just
Speaker 5: as you're heading out the door, or when you've just
Speaker 5: gone out and you've got a nice outfit on or
Speaker 5: a shirt on. About times I see people guys wearing
Speaker 5: with high confidence a white shirt. It makes me anxious,
Speaker 5: you know that, I'd be so nervous wearing a white
Speaker 5: shirt because even just getting out the house, getting two revenue,
Speaker 5: meeting everybody, and like any little spinach, that's your night
Speaker 5: room is you can't know it. You could see it there.
Speaker 5: You know people are looking at it.
Speaker 4: That's why we're so safe in black and dark gray clothes.
Speaker 5: Yes, absorbs any stains. All right, Spinaches, let's see what
Speaker 5: stories you've got nine four one four one o four
Speaker 5: three Mario coome morning.
Speaker 18: Yes I am. About three years ago I asked my
Speaker 18: daughter to go and get distant paint and she bought
Speaker 18: sustained lads of it, put it in the back of
Speaker 18: her car and took a corner too quickly, and by
Speaker 18: the time she got high and there was paint all
Speaker 18: over the back of her boots and in the boot well.
Speaker 18: And took me that three eyes to clean it all up.
Speaker 5: Oh you're never getting that. Just torched car.
Speaker 18: It was just panic and you know, cleaned it up
Speaker 18: as quick as you can. Like it was.
Speaker 5: So absorbed, isn't it. Gravity takes it and it will
Speaker 5: go everywhere.
Speaker 18: I believe, Maria.
Speaker 5: Thank you very much and cool.
Speaker 11: Thank you, Joe, Good morning, good morning, old hell are
Speaker 11: we today?
Speaker 5: We're good, Welcome to the show. Thanks for cooling, Joe, Spinaches.
Speaker 19: So last year we started renovating our home, laid.
Speaker 12: To new floors.
Speaker 19: Two weeks before Christmas, my partner comes home and finds
Speaker 19: that there's a bucket of water that's filled from one
Speaker 19: end of the house the other. The cat had tisted
Speaker 19: over and we had to rip up all the floor
Speaker 19: lords and get to relay eight hundred dollars later.
Speaker 5: I got be honest, I think I would have just
Speaker 5: left it.
Speaker 4: I mean wanted to try out.
Speaker 5: And then rock the house, and then the house will collapse.
Speaker 19: It actually had started to get moldy because we've left
Speaker 19: it there for a few days. And yeah, just to
Speaker 19: the feet up, the walk the floor.
Speaker 5: And of course it would be two weeks before Christmas. Right,
Speaker 5: of course, absolutely that cat knew what he was doing.
Speaker 5: That cat did that for loss. All right, Joe, thanks
Speaker 5: you very much. You cool. Thank you.
Speaker 19: Take care of faith.
Speaker 5: He goome on in, Lizzie, goome on, Liz, Hi, how
Speaker 5: are you.
Speaker 6: To Jack and the anchor? Yeah, look, I've got two stories.
Speaker 6: Years ago, I worked in a winery and we hosted weddings.
Speaker 6: The first story is we were short started. I was
Speaker 6: racing around, had two bottles of wine in each hand,
Speaker 6: went to put them on the table. As I went past,
Speaker 6: I kicked the candelabra, which went rocking backwards and forward
Speaker 6: and wax going over the wedding cake over the table.
Speaker 6: The other story, different wedding, but it was the end
Speaker 6: of the night. Everyone had a great time and we
Speaker 6: were serving musket after the dessert, and a glass and
Speaker 6: musket in front of this lady and the whole tray
Speaker 6: tips up and down her back.
Speaker 5: What is it about ladies backs and drinks.
Speaker 6: I don't know, but you know what muskets like. It's
Speaker 6: all sticky and horrible sherry. Yeah yeah, yeah, what.
Speaker 11: Did she do?
Speaker 5: I'm just knock you out?
Speaker 6: Oh just about Yeah.
Speaker 5: She wasn't happy you had me at Candelabra. I don't
Speaker 5: think we've had ever had a call on this show
Speaker 5: where they mentioned a candelabra.
Speaker 6: Yeah yeah, but there was one of those talk Candelabras
Speaker 6: and it just rocked backwards and forwards over the wedding.
Speaker 5: Take shout out to Candelabra's what I say this morning, Lizzie,
Speaker 5: Thank you very much. She cooled. Take care of me, no.
Speaker 6: I see you.
Speaker 2: This is the Christian o'commel show podcast.
Speaker 5: Big day on this radio station. This radio station today
Speaker 5: is thirty years of age. Big day for Huggy who
Speaker 5: has been working here thirty years. Honestly, it says how
Speaker 5: good he is, that he it is very hard to
Speaker 5: have a long career in radio, and most people in
Speaker 5: radio move around, not their own choice, that moved around
Speaker 5: by the bosses, scooped around, and there's somebody else's problem.
Speaker 5: It is so rare that one person can stay out
Speaker 5: one radio station. I mean, goodness, knows how many bosses
Speaker 5: he's seen off, and when I do mean he probably
Speaker 5: has bumped them off. Actually he knows where the bodies are. Anyway,
Speaker 5: he's been here thirty years today. So when he's on
Speaker 5: later on, send him a little note. Because the great
Speaker 5: thing about Huggy is right, even if there was a
Speaker 5: nuclear war, that guy still be the happest man on
Speaker 5: the radio.
Speaker 4: He'll still be drumming along to Phil Collins.
Speaker 5: Honestly, the building shakes. When we had the earth quite
Speaker 5: a couple of weeks ago. I just presumed he was
Speaker 5: playing in the air tonight because when he does that
Speaker 5: big old drum break in that the building shakes. Where
Speaker 5: he genuinely loves coming in here and playing a bunch
Speaker 5: of songs and hopefully cheering you up every single mid morning.
Speaker 5: So it is a remarkable achievement. But yeah, thirty years
Speaker 5: ago nineteen ninety one. So what it means for us
Speaker 5: on the show this morning is coming up after eight o'clock.
Speaker 5: We've got a whole hour of these amazing songs from
Speaker 5: nineteen ninety one. We've even got some newsless sports stories,
Speaker 5: as Patsy's found out. Listen to this. This used to
Speaker 5: be the news intro from nineteen ninety one.
Speaker 20: This is Gold one oh four News, Complete news and
Speaker 20: information for Melbourne.
Speaker 5: I kind of like that.
Speaker 3: It is cool, isn't it still?
Speaker 1: Okay?
Speaker 5: Complete? This is one hundred thirty years ago where it's
Speaker 5: like some sort of conversation and Okay, guys, we're going
Speaker 5: into the music. Okay, Fox Complete New, this information for Melbourne.
Speaker 5: This is Gold one o News. Really get a sort
Speaker 5: of focus group the word complete. I might listen to
Speaker 5: this Gold, but if I tune in and find incomplete news,
Speaker 5: don't given a half fast news story New Station Gold.
Speaker 5: It needs to be complete.
Speaker 4: They also don't use the word information much in the
Speaker 4: top of news news information.
Speaker 5: Okay, you can't really be going in listen, it's like
Speaker 5: a really serious news story.
Speaker 1: Okay, Fox Complete.
Speaker 20: New this information, this is Gold one of four News.
Speaker 5: I love that, all right, Jackie Boy's got a story
Speaker 5: actually which some of you might forgot about. This. This
Speaker 5: is an amazing story From nineteen ninety one.
Speaker 4: April fourteen, nineteen ninety one, twenty paintings were stolen from
Speaker 4: the Van Go Museum in Amsterdam, but were recovered just
Speaker 4: thirty five minutes later because the robbers got a flat tire.
Speaker 5: This is incredible. I mean, how do you even get
Speaker 5: away with one, let alone how many Vango.
Speaker 4: They bit's twenty paintings?
Speaker 5: How do we get away with that many? Again, it
Speaker 5: didn't have Australians looking after the security did that because
Speaker 5: one thing we've learned the last couple of weeks is
Speaker 5: whenever there's a high profile event, Australians will look the
Speaker 5: other way and let family members, their mates just run
Speaker 5: in wherever you want.
Speaker 4: You got it right on the nose. There was an
Speaker 4: inside man who was a security guard led he's mate
Speaker 4: in the mate hid in the toilet and then at
Speaker 4: three am.
Speaker 5: As feels like a charge movie, doesn't it home alone?
Speaker 4: Nine at three am, man in the toilet comes out,
Speaker 4: he's got a gun. He rounds up the rest of
Speaker 4: the security team.
Speaker 5: I can't wonder how bored I'd be in there, even
Speaker 5: if I was part of this multimillion dollar high sub being, like, guys,
Speaker 5: what am I going to do in there for all
Speaker 5: that time?
Speaker 4: Also? What why not do it at one am? It's
Speaker 4: still in the middle of the night.
Speaker 5: And it's probably the most important art museum in the world.
Speaker 5: Millions and millions of these rare artifacts, right, surely they have,
Speaker 5: even I know it's thirty years ago, it's nineteen ninety one.
Speaker 5: They do the old toilet check to check there's no
Speaker 5: one hiding in there, don't they What kind of bozos
Speaker 5: we're looking after it? Then they've all been smoking something.
Speaker 5: Now there you're going to do that look under the
Speaker 5: qbicle and don't do the oneHe hit The feet are
Speaker 5: on the toilet seat. I've seen that in too many movies.
Speaker 4: So they get twenty paintings him and the other security
Speaker 4: guard put it in the back of the security guard's
Speaker 4: car and they drive away.
Speaker 5: The idea is, well, hopefully it wasn't his car. They
Speaker 5: stole a car, is not just his car, this is it.
Speaker 4: They go in his car and they're meant to meet
Speaker 4: a getaway car. So they're driving in his car.
Speaker 5: But maybe start in the getaway car, then get a
Speaker 5: different car. No one leaves a robbery in their own car.
Speaker 5: There's traceable to them.
Speaker 4: They're meant to meet in the getaway car. The getaway
Speaker 4: car has the flat tire, so it never gets to
Speaker 4: the meeting point. So they get to the meeting point,
Speaker 4: you know, twenty meters down the road.
Speaker 5: I bet do you need At that moment, they're going,
Speaker 5: whoa you got all twenty times ten minute, two hundred million,
Speaker 5: who oh, oh, oh god, what is that? Oh it's
Speaker 5: a flat you had one job get away driver.
Speaker 4: So then they try to take off on foot and
Speaker 4: they got caught thirty five minutes later.
Speaker 5: It was a very slow kind of pursuit, like the
Speaker 5: oh JJS, isn't it you know, with twenty paintings unders,
Speaker 5: they start dropping leave that one. I've still got eleven left, guys,
Speaker 5: Come on, we can make it to the border. This
Speaker 5: is amazing. That is the very definition of the worst
Speaker 5: time to get a flat because there's always a pain
