00:00:00,640 --> 00:00:03,040
Speaker 1: The Christian O'Connell breakfast Show podcast.

00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:07,040
Speaker 2: Time now for Random acts of Kindness. So this week

3
00:00:07,080 --> 00:00:09,520
Speaker 2: is Random acts of Kindness Week. We set this up

4
00:00:09,600 --> 00:00:13,680
Speaker 2: last week and then forgot about it this week. It's

5
00:00:13,680 --> 00:00:14,280
Speaker 2: in the diary.

6
00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:15,160
Speaker 1: I put it in my.

7
00:00:15,160 --> 00:00:18,840
Speaker 2: Diary and I with Midday and that other mysterious weekly appointment.

8
00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:22,200
Speaker 2: So how do you get on the last twenty four

9
00:00:22,200 --> 00:00:22,759
Speaker 2: hours team?

10
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:24,680
Speaker 3: I'm proud to say I've done it.

11
00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:26,840
Speaker 2: Okay, I's going to you first of all, Jackpost, What

12
00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:28,960
Speaker 2: did you do for your random acts of kindness in

13
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:30,120
Speaker 2: the last twenty four hours?

14
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:33,159
Speaker 3: I was lucky enough that he came to me. My

15
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:35,200
Speaker 3: neighbor knocked on the door and said, Hey, I've got

16
00:00:35,240 --> 00:00:37,680
Speaker 3: two pans on the boil right now. I just need

17
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:41,400
Speaker 3: some salt. I said, perfect, come in, take the table salt,

18
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 3: or take the special sea salt that we use on

19
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:47,400
Speaker 3: only on special accounts for the pink Himalayan, the pink Himalayane.

20
00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:50,200
Speaker 3: He helped himself to some pink Himalayan and off he went.

21
00:00:50,320 --> 00:00:53,760
Speaker 3: And I said to myself, that's a random act of kindness.

22
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:54,040
Speaker 1: Okay.

23
00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:56,000
Speaker 2: So if you hadn't been in Random act of Kindness Week,

24
00:00:56,040 --> 00:00:58,720
Speaker 2: would you have offered the expensive, more expensive upgrade of

25
00:00:58,760 --> 00:00:59,480
Speaker 2: the pink kimalayane.

26
00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:01,960
Speaker 3: You know what, I probably wouldn't have bothered. I would

27
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:03,760
Speaker 3: have gone, there's the table. Help yourself.

28
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,600
Speaker 2: So you saying the simple act of some guy knocking

29
00:01:06,680 --> 00:01:09,679
Speaker 2: on your door and you're saying, here's some salt. It's

30
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:14,119
Speaker 2: a random act of kindness. This is pay it back

31
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,759
Speaker 2: in your own mind before I even passed any comments,

32
00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:18,560
Speaker 2: you've done nothing.

33
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 3: I would have done nothing. Salts there, I paid for

34
00:01:22,319 --> 00:01:28,399
Speaker 3: that salt. No, this is a random act of misery.

35
00:01:29,959 --> 00:01:32,840
Speaker 3: He had salted care. I think he was making kebab,

36
00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:35,160
Speaker 3: so he would have had a saltless kebab last night

37
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:36,800
Speaker 3: if it wasn't for us coming to the rescue.

38
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:39,560
Speaker 2: This is your this is your first example of a

39
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:41,560
Speaker 2: random act of kindness. And you go to your neighbors

40
00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:41,800
Speaker 2: some song.

41
00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 3: It's only Monday.

42
00:01:42,560 --> 00:01:47,760
Speaker 2: I'm gonna you're going to pinch a pinch of salt. Peraratsy,

43
00:01:47,800 --> 00:01:48,440
Speaker 2: What did you do?

44
00:01:48,680 --> 00:01:48,960
Speaker 3: Well?

45
00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:52,080
Speaker 4: I was at the supermarket yesterday and you know how

46
00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 4: you have to put you know, two bucks or one

47
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:57,080
Speaker 4: buck in to get the trolleys. Now, a lady didn't

48
00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,720
Speaker 4: have any gold coins, which can often happen when I

49
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 4: went to take my trolley back and get my token out,

50
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 4: and I said, you know what, don't stress, you can

51
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 4: have mine. And she said, I don't know how long

52
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:08,880
Speaker 4: I'll be And I said, no, no, no, please, you can

53
00:02:09,000 --> 00:02:09,720
Speaker 4: keep that dollar.

54
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:10,799
Speaker 1: That's how you do.

55
00:02:10,880 --> 00:02:12,919
Speaker 3: And that was my one dollar.

56
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,880
Speaker 2: Doesn't matter, it's the thought check. Perhaps he's done it.

57
00:02:17,840 --> 00:02:22,760
Speaker 1: Dollar the bar is love who has salt.

58
00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:25,480
Speaker 3: I'm not going to giggle him alay and seasow. That

59
00:02:25,560 --> 00:02:26,640
Speaker 3: stuff is not cheap.

60
00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,640
Speaker 2: It's it's not cheap. But you didn't give it to

61
00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:34,040
Speaker 2: He had a pinch of it. He had three granules passion.

62
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:37,200
Speaker 2: That's a lovely one. That's a really nice thing to do.

63
00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:40,959
Speaker 3: Fourteen dollars twenty.

64
00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:42,639
Speaker 2: Six Yeah, what's three granules?

65
00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 3: That's for four hundred and fifty grams.

66
00:02:45,080 --> 00:02:49,880
Speaker 2: What did he save? He ton't. He's going to have

67
00:02:49,960 --> 00:02:52,640
Speaker 2: heart problems. He did not take two hundred grams. You

68
00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:54,919
Speaker 2: can't wait out this one, post man. You got twenty

69
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:56,880
Speaker 2: four hours to come back to us with a proper

70
00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,640
Speaker 2: one being. It doesn't involve you just answering the door.

71
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:00,720
Speaker 3: What did you do?

72
00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:02,120
Speaker 2: I tell you what I did? You know, when was

73
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:04,400
Speaker 2: the last time you wrote a letter? To somebody.

74
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:08,080
Speaker 3: Long time ago. I remember probably your first love letters

75
00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:09,040
Speaker 3: I wrote to my wife.

76
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:11,000
Speaker 2: You know, I decided yesterday I thought, you're not going

77
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:12,360
Speaker 2: to do them for my thing. I'm going to do

78
00:03:12,400 --> 00:03:14,160
Speaker 2: something now. I'm going to write two letters to two

79
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 2: different people, one in England one in this country, people

80
00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:18,960
Speaker 2: who actually did something nice and they didn't realize it.

81
00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:20,520
Speaker 2: When I really need some house, I thought, I'm going

82
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,519
Speaker 2: to write them a letter. However, when I went to

83
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 2: write the letter, do you know how it actually physically

84
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:25,720
Speaker 2: exhausted is to hold a pen?

85
00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:31,520
Speaker 1: Now? Remember that they used to do it exact but

86
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:31,880
Speaker 1: it was.

87
00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:36,520
Speaker 2: Like after carefully say that, it was after only two minutes.

88
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 2: That was halfway through the letter. Maybe I send them

89
00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:41,840
Speaker 2: a text, it's not quite the same.

90
00:03:42,160 --> 00:03:46,880
Speaker 3: That'll do two sentences you're sincerely and an appropriate emoji.

91
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:49,920
Speaker 2: And so I wrote these letters. Then you've got a

92
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 2: pain writing a letter. Now, then you've got to go

93
00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:53,040
Speaker 2: and find your stamps in the house.

94
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:54,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, find a letter, bar well.

95
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:55,000
Speaker 1: I don't know.

96
00:03:55,080 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 2: For some reason, they're in the first dag draw on

97
00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:58,000
Speaker 2: the house. There's stamps as well.

98
00:03:58,120 --> 00:04:00,400
Speaker 3: We don't even have stamps on hand.

99
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 2: We did for sending cars back. You know, birthday cars

100
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:04,720
Speaker 2: back to England, stuff like that. So I found the stamps

101
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:06,680
Speaker 2: and you got there's the plane. You got to get

102
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,440
Speaker 2: the car going drive around for a post box of that.

103
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:12,839
Speaker 2: So anyway, mine was I did it. I wrote two

104
00:04:12,920 --> 00:04:13,680
Speaker 2: separate letters.

105
00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:17,320
Speaker 3: I think you've made the most effort. I agree that

106
00:04:17,640 --> 00:04:20,039
Speaker 3: one dollar I've given eight dollars worth of soul.

107
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:25,160
Speaker 2: I've got writers, someone's gonna someone's going to get and

108
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,240
Speaker 2: amongst all their bills, they're going to open up a

109
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 2: complete surprise. I like that a letter. They would have

110
00:04:30,320 --> 00:04:33,680
Speaker 2: realized that takes time to write a letter. You win Monday, Yeah,

111
00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:36,599
Speaker 2: thank you very much. Jack up, You're game for tomorrow.

112
00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,719
Speaker 1: Though the Christian o'connall Breakfast Show pod.

113
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 2: Christian, I did a random act of kindness, so I'm

114
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,599
Speaker 2: trying to take part in your Random acts of Kindness

115
00:04:44,600 --> 00:04:46,760
Speaker 2: week this week as well. I'm going to be reporting

116
00:04:46,760 --> 00:04:48,280
Speaker 2: in at eight forty five. When you said the rest

117
00:04:48,279 --> 00:04:50,400
Speaker 2: of the team need to do the same with you yesterday,

118
00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:53,479
Speaker 2: I an opportunity presented itself to me too. I spotted

119
00:04:53,520 --> 00:04:57,600
Speaker 2: a person selling specific number plates on Facebook marketplace for

120
00:04:57,760 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 2: well under their value. I collect and trade marketplaces, saying

121
00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:04,400
Speaker 2: that holding is closing. I advise them to reprice them

122
00:05:04,400 --> 00:05:07,240
Speaker 2: and advertise and hold a specific sight as they'll go

123
00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,920
Speaker 2: for way more. He thanked me and took the advice.

124
00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 3: Or that actually is very nice because you could have

125
00:05:12,640 --> 00:05:15,200
Speaker 3: been a vulture there as a collector and taken advantage

126
00:05:15,240 --> 00:05:15,880
Speaker 3: of easily.

127
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:21,040
Speaker 2: Trevor Brackett's nu dy end of bracket sky. No idea

128
00:05:21,080 --> 00:05:23,599
Speaker 2: why the new dbit is in the middle there, But anyway,

129
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:24,960
Speaker 2: that's that's actually a really nice one.

130
00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:27,120
Speaker 3: That's up there with Himalayan salt. It's right up there

131
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:30,719
Speaker 3: with letter writing. When was the last time you wrote

132
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:33,839
Speaker 3: a letter? So, sadly the random act of kindness, as

133
00:05:33,920 --> 00:05:35,320
Speaker 3: is always when I try to do something decent on

134
00:05:35,360 --> 00:05:38,280
Speaker 3: the show with a big heart, is it descends into

135
00:05:38,320 --> 00:05:41,520
Speaker 3: pettiness from Jackpost. Perhaps all I've had in is hym

136
00:05:41,600 --> 00:05:43,880
Speaker 3: camping on saying that in my ear going.

137
00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:48,520
Speaker 2: I can't believe that you thought that, Pats, And so

138
00:05:49,200 --> 00:05:51,280
Speaker 2: I'm going to put this now. Then sadly, you give

139
00:05:51,320 --> 00:05:53,000
Speaker 2: me no choice to end this this morning, so we

140
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 2: can move on. I'm going to ask Rio and collect

141
00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:59,560
Speaker 2: two decent people, independent judges then each morning to decide

142
00:05:59,720 --> 00:06:02,760
Speaker 2: which isn't about either, which one's better.

143
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:06,039
Speaker 3: But we must know, No, we don't.

144
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:08,320
Speaker 2: You need to know, all right. First of all, let's

145
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 2: go to producer collect. Who would you say, did the

146
00:06:11,640 --> 00:06:12,320
Speaker 2: nicer one?

147
00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,400
Speaker 1: Definitely Christian with a letter writing hands down, okay?

148
00:06:15,440 --> 00:06:19,680
Speaker 3: And whose was the least significants versus Pats putting one

149
00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:24,240
Speaker 3: dollar in someone's trolley, me saving somebody's whole dinner. The

150
00:06:24,279 --> 00:06:26,840
Speaker 3: whole dinner, yes, because you can't have an unsalty kebab.

151
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,119
Speaker 2: But he wouldn't have been He wouldn't have been putting

152
00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:33,000
Speaker 2: the kebabs in a pound of hot water for watery kebabs.

153
00:06:33,040 --> 00:06:34,640
Speaker 2: He would have been having de rice with them.

154
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,440
Speaker 3: He did say he had pans on the go, but

155
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:38,880
Speaker 3: you couldn't you sizzle him in a pan?

156
00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:40,359
Speaker 2: No, not with hot water.

157
00:06:40,600 --> 00:06:43,640
Speaker 3: It warm meat up like a poached kebab.

158
00:06:45,160 --> 00:06:49,640
Speaker 4: Collect the least significant definitely Jack Pats was unwarranted.

159
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:52,920

Speaker 2: told me been drinking whiskey at a wedding, So I

169
