Speaker 5: black soil shoes on the court.
Speaker 3: But you played for like the Ivan Hobozos of it
Speaker 3: was team so you know they don't care what you wear.
Speaker 5: No, there was usually a sign on every arena that said, well,
Speaker 5: it wasn't an arena every court that said don't wear
Speaker 5: black sold shoes, and that aspectually was don't wear your
Speaker 5: school shoes on the court because the scuff these are
Speaker 5: obviously ses.

Speaker 5: It actually was the only instruction I was given. Make
Speaker 5: sure the shoes are white.
Speaker 3: Patty, there was a last minute yesterday we were told

Speaker 3: they're very generously giving it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we aren't doing the.
Speaker 8: Show million dollar courts.
Speaker 3: Yeah exactly, and so you know what this place is
Speaker 3: like with the old tightness of the budgets. So Caitlyn yesterday,

Speaker 3: white sold sneakers that he was told to bring yesterday,
Speaker 3: and he said, don't worry, yep, tick got them. Turns
Speaker 3: up someone with caramel covered. They are white trainers, but
Speaker 3: the most important part of them, the soul, is caramel cover.
Speaker 5: I interpret that obstruction as just not black schools.
Speaker 3: The key bit was clearly block capitols, white sold two words. Now,
Speaker 3: I just had a thought. You know when you watch
Speaker 3: c s I, they put those things over.
Speaker 5: Their shoes, the bread bag.
Speaker 3: You've seen them in swimming pools. Dan't you just put
Speaker 3: those blue things? Can we go and get some carrier
Speaker 3: bags from Coals.
Speaker 10: Go over the road to the Apworth Hospital because they
Speaker 10: wear those into surgery.
Speaker 3: Just walk past Patsy well Done Atworth is around the corner,
Speaker 3: would go on the way to the key and it
Speaker 3: would go far the Atworth.
Speaker 5: But what's the what's the department at the Apworth where
Speaker 5: you're allowed to come in as a non sick person in.
Speaker 3: Some surgeon shoe covers? It's not like a bowling alley
Speaker 3: where they have the sort of shoes behind the desk.
Speaker 4: What size do you need for these?
Speaker 3: The other one is this going to a supermarket then
Speaker 3: and then getting carrier bags and she don't buy those
Speaker 3: plastic ones.
Speaker 8: There's no plastic anymore.
Speaker 3: What about you know women have their hair and cat
Speaker 3: shower feet.
Speaker 5: Would that be a bit slippery though?
Speaker 4: Now?
Speaker 3: And hema has just coming from a listener called Mark Christian.
Speaker 3: I've been catching up with the podcast this week, listening
Speaker 3: to Jack complaining about his bad back.
Speaker 5: That's the other thing. That's why I can't have share
Speaker 5: caps on my feet because my back is plain.
Speaker 8: I'm hearing excuses.
Speaker 3: Well, that's what the subject of this EMA is about.
Speaker 3: From a listener, Mark, Why do we only hear about
Speaker 3: this when he is asked to do something different for
Speaker 3: the show? No word about this bad back when he's
Speaker 3: talking about his golf game he had to gim that
Speaker 3: day he had to take off to go and take
Speaker 3: a celebrity tournament. Christian, if you can't bend over pick
Speaker 3: up tennis balls, how does he bend over its golf
Speaker 3: ball on a tee for eighteen holes plus bending collect
Speaker 3: to collect balls from hole to hole in its green,
Speaker 3: Not to mention how many times he picks up the
Speaker 3: ball off a line to put it. Got me thinking
Speaker 3: how he would use any excuse to get out of
Speaker 3: doing anything for the show. Have a great day, guys,
Speaker 3: I'll be listening to him.
Speaker 5: Mark God, thanks a lot.
Speaker 7: Mark.
Speaker 5: Oh have you know I actually went for my back
Speaker 5: because it has been in pain recently. I went to
Speaker 5: a special ergonomic chair store last night. That's how seriously I'm.
Speaker 3: Taking So what's an ergonomic chair store?
Speaker 5: They have different types of office chairs that improve your
Speaker 5: posture while seated.
Speaker 4: So an actual chair is it enough?
Speaker 5: No, an actual chair is it? Could be doing untold
Speaker 5: damage to my back?
Speaker 3: So how can the chair keep you in a better posture?
Speaker 3: Would it be like a brace, like you're like an
Speaker 3: iron man, it's sort of strapped into something.
Speaker 5: Well, I saw an osteopath, and he recommended this. It's
Speaker 5: a saddle chair.
Speaker 3: Come on, I see those. It's more like those on
Speaker 3: some of those websites. You look at okay, you want
Speaker 3: to get paddled during the show.
Speaker 4: No chat.
Speaker 5: So from the bottom up it looks like a normal.
Speaker 4: Office, a camera under the.
Speaker 5: Mirror, and then the seat you're not.
Speaker 3: And looking at me. You're not straddling.
Speaker 5: Suddenly within next week I'll be sudden in this studio.
Speaker 8: It takes a pressure off your spine.
Speaker 5: It puts you in a better posture so that you
Speaker 5: favus the city didn't look Jack then, I guess I
Speaker 5: would look like I'm riding a horse because there would
Speaker 5: be no horse there.
Speaker 3: You brought in some one of Gordy's toys does have rains.
Speaker 5: I'm sure you'll get used to it.
Speaker 3: And so I guess they're pricing or they're not cheap.
Speaker 5: And I was hoping also maybe the conversation for off air,
Speaker 5: but that Sue the boss would because it's a piece
Speaker 5: of workplace furniture.
Speaker 2: Mark Listen just emailed us the Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 3: Half an away, half an hour away from us being
Speaker 3: live from the Australian open, Patsy, how was your yesterday?
Speaker 10: Well, I didn't think that i'd be a show for
Speaker 10: work today, for this massive day that we've got planned for.
Speaker 8: Knock it out of the park.
Speaker 5: We have.
Speaker 8: It seems to have been this constant visit to the
Speaker 8: vet with Presley. He's had a lot of stuff.
Speaker 10: He had a lump taken off before Christmas, and now
Speaker 10: he's got this other lump at the back of his
Speaker 10: sort of leg that requires some ointment. And what it
Speaker 10: does is it it numbs the area and clears it up. Anyway,
Speaker 10: so we've got to apply it morning and night. And
Speaker 10: I'm usually always whenever a pet needs their medicine, it's always.
Speaker 3: Me that has Oh my god, that's so funny. It's
Speaker 3: the same in my house almost like, hey, listen, I
Speaker 3: think it's five o'clock. The dog needs that ointment again,
Speaker 3: and I sort of look at her like chop chop.
Speaker 4: TikTok.
Speaker 5: It's always me.
Speaker 10: So anyway, yesterday I applied it, and the vet did
Speaker 10: say to us, lovely, Maggie, O it at green Crushggie.
Speaker 3: You know, I feel like we're properly back nowas random
Speaker 3: character in life that none of us will ever meet
Speaker 3: or no suddenly get into stories that they don't need
Speaker 3: to be their lovely make So she had a good
Speaker 3: Christmas in New Year, she did.
Speaker 8: Actually she just welcomed a new nephew, which.
Speaker 4: Is shout out to Freddy.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 10: Anyway, she said, look, just make sure you wash your
Speaker 10: hands after you've used this ointment because it will numb
Speaker 10: your finger, like you know, it won't hurt.
Speaker 4: You, but it'll be news fingers as well.
Speaker 10: Well they never stop anyway. So I did wash my hands,
Speaker 10: of course, But then I do have a habit with
Speaker 10: my nails. I sort of like, well, not chew them,
Speaker 10: but I'll just like, you know, tap tap. I'm a
Speaker 10: bit annoying like that with my nails. And obviously I
Speaker 10: still had a bit of ointment up under my pointer
Speaker 10: finger last night, and I.
Speaker 8: Felt only if it yes, it did, yeah.
Speaker 10: And down the side of my tongue started to feel
Speaker 10: a bit fuzzy and.
Speaker 5: And for a bit like that, it must be pretty powerful.
Speaker 8: It must be.
Speaker 5: Yeah, drip under the fingernail and a good glop.
Speaker 8: It was a decent glob of the stuff.
Speaker 5: Also when you've washed your hands. How thorough was the
Speaker 5: obviously not?
Speaker 3: I don't think she I think she choose her Now
Speaker 3: you start to say, sometimes choo, I tap, actually who
Speaker 3: taps on their mouths?
Speaker 10: But it was it was seriously numb for like twenty
Speaker 10: minute for fall, A bit like that Lah fight.
Speaker 3: I'd like to hear just one news. Actually, don't like that, Patty,
Speaker 3: have you got any of it now? And see what
Speaker 3: it sounds like.
Speaker 2: The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 3: Still the thumbs up as where me chack and Pat's
Speaker 3: telling me about the things we're into at the moment. Patsy,
Speaker 3: what's it for you? Kicking off the You watched.
Speaker 10: So much stuff over the break, but one of my
Speaker 10: favorite things was there's a new documentary on the Jerry
Speaker 10: Springer Show.
Speaker 3: Oh I've seen it. Isn't it a lot better than
Speaker 3: I thought it was going to be? Yeah?
Speaker 10: On Netflix Jerry Springer fights camera action and it's like
Speaker 10: a back ground look at this crazy great watch. And
Speaker 10: Jerry had absolutely no editorial control. I didn't realize I've
Speaker 10: had something, but he was just merely the host. It
Speaker 10: was a real, really deep delve into the role of
Speaker 10: the producers. And you thought a lot of it there
Speaker 10: are actors and pretending, but no, that wasn't the case.
Speaker 3: Because we grew up watching that show. There'd never been
Speaker 3: TV like that. It really was like a human zoo. Yes,
Speaker 3: and that was do you remember that actual fight. You
Speaker 3: know there should be that big old Yeah, it's great.
Speaker 3: It takes you back it to a moment in time
Speaker 3: when that used to be huge. That ships and then
Speaker 3: that strange bit used to do at the end, we try,
Speaker 3: I'm moralize to make us feel a bit less grubby
Speaker 3: about what I've been doing.
Speaker 10: Just bizarre and just you know how the producers it
Speaker 10: was almost like a blood sport coming up with the
Speaker 10: craziest plot for the next show, the.
Speaker 3: Carl and Jackie Oh Show. To be honest, I mean
Speaker 3: probably some of those producers moved on to that.
Speaker 5: Yeah, they probably just watched.
Speaker 4: Every three shows.
Speaker 10: And also just you know, the pursuit for ratings against
Speaker 10: Oprah and got there in the.
Speaker 3: End of ye Oprah wasn't always this kind of open
Speaker 3: that we know was super Soul Sunday. She was doing
Speaker 3: this other kind of freak shows, very spring time stuff
Speaker 3: like that.
Speaker 10: Well that was the days of early talk. Yes, it
Speaker 10: was trashy like that until they found their feet.
Speaker 5: So I loved it. But he always had don't you
Speaker 5: think he always had a little bit of like a
Speaker 5: nod to the camera that he knew that it was
Speaker 5: a ridiculous show that he come into.
Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah, well yeah, I mean some of the plot lines.
Speaker 10: There was a guy I'm in love with my pony
Speaker 10: or something like like, he was having a relationship and.
Speaker 5: Again they're doing that.
Speaker 10: The other thing that I've discovered, and I hate to
Speaker 10: admit it, but we got home from holidays. I opened
Speaker 10: the front door and this god almighty foul stench whacked
Speaker 10: us in the face.
Speaker 8: We had a dead rat in the roof.
Speaker 3: The stink. We had one behind the fridge that we
Speaker 3: didn't know been decaying there for weeks, literally just trashing
Speaker 3: the house trying to work out what the smell was.
Speaker 8: Well, this was us.
Speaker 10: Chris pulled the fridge out. There was nothing under the fridge,
Speaker 10: so we cleaned under there. We just couldn't And it
Speaker 10: was weird because it was shifting around. It seemed like
Speaker 10: it was shifting around the house anyway. So it's still
Speaker 10: up there, it's died up there. I guess it's a
Speaker 10: skeleton now. But the smell, and I remember Mike Granny
Speaker 10: used to use this nil odor. It's this tiny little
Speaker 10: bottle of it's kind of like an antiseptic, but it's
Speaker 10: a deodoriser.
Speaker 3: What just for dean rats? It was a really niche.
Speaker 3: How many of those they shift in a year?
Speaker 10: But it's brilliant and I thought it's concentrated deodorizer. It's
Speaker 10: about five bucks a bottle at Coals and Woods.
Speaker 3: I could have done with that years ago, for it
Speaker 3: when the girls were right in peak teenage years, because
Speaker 3: those bedrooms there's used to really FuG.
Speaker 4: Because the clothes they just festering on the floor.
Speaker 10: Yeah, well this is great, and I thought, of course
Speaker 10: we just I was using bleach and then all you
Speaker 10: could smell was bleach.
Speaker 4: So what is it? What's the replacment smell?
Speaker 10: What is I don't know if I can describe it.
Speaker 10: I want to say it's like a vanilla, but it's
Speaker 10: not a vanilla.
Speaker 5: It's not a masking thing though, it's like trying to
Speaker 5: take away the smell.
Speaker 3: So it's a neutral smell, neutral smell.
Speaker 5: I've got a great rat story.
Speaker 3: Maybe later on, let's take a break, we'll come back
Speaker 3: with Jack and Ize. Double thumbs Up.
Speaker 2: Christian Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 3: We're doing double thumbs Up this is where we go
Speaker 3: around the team too. Things were into at the moment
Speaker 3: before us. She was Jackie boy, what's the rat story?
Speaker 5: So my in laws were here right up until we
Speaker 5: came back on Monday, and it reached peak hysteria over
Speaker 5: the weekend when I heard yelling from another room like aha,
Speaker 5: it's my mother in law, and I get they're in
Speaker 5: the house so much that I begin to like hide
Speaker 5: in different rooms of my own house to get a
Speaker 5: little bit of a breather. So I didn't. I was like,
Speaker 5: I'm not even going to deal with this. Whatever's going on,
Speaker 5: let them deal with it. Screaming, screaming, and she's going
Speaker 5: the rat the rat. Spanish is her first language, so
Speaker 5: she's saying like, rat on, rat on. The one thing
Speaker 5: I can't do is through rat.
Speaker 4: On powerful action.
Speaker 3: I get it.
Speaker 4: I know the venezuela, but that's very.
Speaker 5: Good to me. So I can hear them through the
Speaker 5: next room and they're make trying to make the sheets
Speaker 5: on Gordy's bed and they said there's a dead mouse
Speaker 5: living between his mattress and said that is that is
Speaker 5: disgusted on.
Speaker 4: You.
Speaker 5: If that's true, that is very disgusting. So I see
Speaker 5: my father in law come back from the kitchen with
Speaker 5: a big garbage bag over his hand to come and
Speaker 5: collect the rat. I go in behind him.
Speaker 4: Backup.
Speaker 5: Because he was he was in there. Should have pushed
Speaker 5: the seat of the crime. It's his, it's his case.
Speaker 5: My mother in law still yelling the right like, rocking
Speaker 5: back and forth in the corner. He goes to grab
Speaker 5: grab the dead mouse and it's Gordie's plastic rhino toys.
Speaker 3: All right, Jackie boy, what is double thumbs up for you?
Speaker 4: What have you enjoyed over the last couple of weeks?
Speaker 5: I mentioned the Ivichy documentary this week it's on Netflix.
Speaker 5: I really like. It's called I'm Tim and I never
Speaker 5: cared about electronic dance music. I actually always wondered how
Speaker 5: it was so popular. But this is the first time
Speaker 5: they ever watched a documentary that made me care about it.
Speaker 5: And I care so much about a beach now and
Speaker 5: we have had a veach here.
Speaker 4: It's a really interesting talent.
Speaker 3: Obviously we like the kind of music which is guitar
Speaker 3: and drumas and we know all that, but yeah, em
Speaker 3: music is huge. It brings so many people so much joy,
Speaker 3: and he's a real artist.
Speaker 4: And visionary. He deserves to be respected like.
Speaker 5: That, and he got to the point where every artist,
Speaker 5: whether they were electronic music or not a cold Play,
Speaker 5: wanted to work with him because of his talents as
Speaker 5: behind the laptop and as a music producer. Then the
Speaker 5: other thing I really loved is we're watching No Good
Speaker 5: Deed on Netflix, which is Ray Romano and Lisa Kudrome.
Speaker 5: They're a married couple.
Speaker 3: And you enjoy it.
Speaker 5: I like it.
Speaker 3: I was a bit cheesy. Yeah, yeah, I thought you
Speaker 3: now I love love. I didn't. Yeah, I thought that
Speaker 3: was just lukewarm. Yeah yeah. How far are you into it?
Speaker 4: Are you?
Speaker 3: Well?
Speaker 5: He the how?
Speaker 3: I don't want to give.
Speaker 5: What's happened to the brother? Has happened to the brother?
Speaker 4: That's where we're right, okay? Yeah? Yeah?
Speaker 5: Should we keep watching?
Speaker 9: No?
Speaker 4: No, no, keep watching? Keep watching?
Speaker 5: Now want mystery?
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, you have to get to the end of
Speaker 3: it as well. All right, just a couple of things
Speaker 3: then for me, I read my first great book of
Speaker 3: the year by some month Harvey. I read in a
Speaker 3: couple of hours. It's a tiny little book, but it's beautiful.
Speaker 3: It's called Orbital. I think it won like the book
Speaker 3: a Prize. But it is such a great read. You
Speaker 3: do it in a couple of hours, really really good book.
Speaker 3: My daughter's got it for me for Christmas. Nate Baghetti,
Speaker 3: one of the best storytellers, I would say the best
Speaker 3: storyteller stand up in the world right now, dropped a
Speaker 3: new special on Netflix over Christmas that is outstanding. Just
Speaker 3: a masterclass in stand up and storytelling. It's a brilliant thing.
Speaker 5: Did you see you know the Maps app Ways? Yes,
Speaker 5: he's the voice of Ways.
Speaker 3: Yes, it's got such a great voice, isn't it Built
Speaker 3: for comedy on Delivery? And then two other shows for
Speaker 3: me as well. There's so many great spy shows at
Speaker 3: the moment. It started a couple of years ago with
Speaker 3: the huge success of an outstanding show, Slow Horses, and
Speaker 3: then Dana Jackal, which I said last year I loved,
Speaker 3: and then there's a new one now with Michael Fassbender.
Speaker 4: You've seen many of his films.
Speaker 5: Is a good actor.
Speaker 3: Yes, that's it. He's in something called The Agency that
Speaker 3: also has Richard Gearing. I haven't seen Richard again. He
Speaker 3: stall looks. I mean, he's got to be late seventies now,
Speaker 3: Oh my god, he still looks amazing. He's still just
Speaker 3: one of the best looking leading men ever. I think
Speaker 3: Richard Gears he's in that which is very good, and
Speaker 3: Liones is outstanding as well. That's on Apple TV. Love

Speaker 3: Jack described the scene there the other side of the
Speaker 3: Key Arena.
Speaker 5: We are separated by the wall of the coliseum. I'm
Speaker 5: outside the Key Arena ready to watch our contestants hit
Speaker 5: the ball over the roof. What should happen is it
Speaker 5: lands in the service court of the tennis court on
Speaker 5: Key Arena. I'm gonna have the first go this morning,
Speaker 5: all right.
Speaker 3: Roaming rio with your BT Tash, are you also ready
Speaker 3: to be picking up the action. Jack's going to be here,
Speaker 3: going to be measuring the distance from closest to the pin.
Speaker 3: If anything, don't manage to do this golden shot that
Speaker 3: we're asking to How is everyone looking this morning, Christian?
Speaker 6: It's like being at rod Laver Arena for the finals.
Speaker 7: There is a lot of tension, there's a lot of
Speaker 7: pacing around, very different characters. We've got Finn, our very
Speaker 7: cocky youngster, been strutting around like he owns the place.
Speaker 7: We've also got the world's tallest man. It's like we've
Speaker 7: got Aquaman six nine. He's six foot eight, he's set
Speaker 7: the fly swatter and he's an imposing figure. And then
Speaker 7: we've got it's a real Motley Crui that you'll find.
Speaker 5: Out, Maria. Why is someone wearing a doctor's love coat?
Speaker 3: Oh that's the fake doctor, Dr Rob.
Speaker 5: Dr Rob.
Speaker 6: He's our physics expert.
Speaker 7: He's calculated exactly the angle and exactly how hard he
Speaker 7: has to.
Speaker 6: Hit it, so we have obviously given him a love coat.
Speaker 3: Okay, let's be honest now quick for amongst the three
Speaker 3: of us, do we think they're actually going to be
Speaker 3: able to do this? Because I do believe that a
Speaker 3: couple of them will get it over the roof right
Speaker 3: and onto the court, but obviously it's over the other
Speaker 3: side of the net where I am.
Speaker 4: Do we think they're actually going to do this?
Speaker 3: I think I believe.
Speaker 5: I think we'll see some balls go over the roof,
Speaker 5: which is a feat in itself. But you can't see
Speaker 5: the tennis court from out here, so.
Speaker 4: Hang a minute.
Speaker 3: There's some childish arrows that produce a Caitlin put on
Speaker 3: the floor. Of course, you can follow the yellow brick road.
Speaker 5: There's a four cardboard cutouts of.
Speaker 3: Someone's doing their skill project down here, not an adult.
Speaker 5: Pointing towards the arena. So from the outside we can
Speaker 5: get the general idea of where the court is, but
Speaker 5: it's going to take a lot of life.
Speaker 3: See if anyone needs, you can probably guess where the
Speaker 3: court is. In the middle of the arena. It's a
Speaker 3: big carty shaped thing. Who's going to be looking towards
Speaker 3: like Olympic boulevard, smashing it that way?
Speaker 5: All right?
Speaker 4: All the hitting starts in a couple of minutes time.
Speaker 2: Christian O'Connell show go on podcast.
Speaker 3: Good Morning with Life from the Australian Open this morning,
Speaker 3: I'm in the middle of Key Arena. We're in and
Speaker 3: two minutes time the game is going to start. Knock
Speaker 3: It into the Park to open the tournament officially. The
Speaker 3: one and only Jack Posts as Cross now live to
Speaker 3: the other side of the Key Arena.
Speaker 5: I wish I didn't volunteer for this, Christian. All the
Speaker 5: contestants have started asking me or just saying, we're going
Speaker 5: to watch how you hit it and then use that
Speaker 5: information to judge how far we hit it, how high
Speaker 5: we hit it. And I'm not a tennis player.
Speaker 4: No, it's more like your crash test, dummy right now?
Speaker 5: Okay, are you ready?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Yeah, good luck, Good luck Jack. To officially open knock
Speaker 3: it into the Park. The first shot fired is Jack Post,
Speaker 3: show them how it should be done?
Speaker 4: Jack, what is it?
Speaker 5: Straight into the roof.
Speaker 6: It didn't make it even probably halfway up the roof.
Speaker 6: It was barely over.
Speaker 3: Halfway just like all the competitors. In a minute, you
Speaker 3: get two serves. Okay, so that was your first one.
Speaker 3: The warm up shot has been fired.
Speaker 5: We have time for a quick rebuttal that wasn't weak,
Speaker 5: risks actually very hard.
Speaker 6: It was so bad.
Speaker 3: Okay, second shot, make it count. Knock it into the
Speaker 3: wreena jack, Come on, I'm looking up high.
Speaker 4: Anything.
Speaker 6: Oh it's just cleared the roof via a matter of millimeters.
Speaker 3: Oh dear, has it landed here?
Speaker 5: Bore?
Speaker 3: The only thing that's landed here some bird poop. Now
Speaker 3: he has this landed? You got it? Engineering. You're just
Speaker 3: courtside at the edge of the court. We're just measuring
Speaker 3: how far away you were from the target in the
Speaker 3: service box, Caitlyn. How far away was his short? But
Speaker 3: he got it onto the court?
Speaker 1: Twelve meters so close.
Speaker 3: So close. No room at the finals for you. All right,
Speaker 3: let's play a song when we come back. It all begins.
Speaker 3: Knock it into the park. Here On The Christian O'Connell
Speaker 3: Show on Gold I'm looking at a clock on the
Speaker 3: court course. It's a Rolex one. It's just straight and open.
Speaker 4: I want that rodex clock in the studio now.
Speaker 2: The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 3: Christian O'Connell Show Live from the Australian Open John the
Speaker 3: next hour and a half then sixteen of you are
Speaker 3: the other side of the Key arena. Jack is now
Speaker 3: joining me back on the court. We're literally stood on
Speaker 3: the court right now. Whether it's a Legends game, doubles game,
Speaker 3: right here, yesterday, evening, all around, whether you normally have
Speaker 3: the top tier sponsors, Jack and advertisers, is knock it
Speaker 3: into the park and our show we label and the
Speaker 3: great thing is no one can see it. That's our
Speaker 3: kind of marketing. He's see it on Instagram and five
Speaker 3: of us. I'm sure I really appreciate it. I'm sending
Speaker 3: pictures home to our mum and dad. They'd be so
Speaker 3: proud I've made it to the Australian Open in some form.
Speaker 3: All right, Rio is outside the Key arena. Let's get
Speaker 3: this started, Rio, are you ready? Who is hitting?
Speaker 6: First of all, Christian, I'm here with our gen z
Speaker 6: alpha male. Finn.
Speaker 7: He's cocky, he's arrogant, and he's only getting cockier by
Speaker 7: the second.
Speaker 6: He's ready to go.
Speaker 3: I thought you're talking about yourself there, you've met your
Speaker 3: double gain.
Speaker 5: He's talking into a mirror during the what are you
Speaker 5: talking about? Pump up?
Speaker 3: All right? So we got Finn? You got Finn there? Yes, yeah,
Speaker 3: he's on the mic. All right, Finn, good luck. How
Speaker 3: are you feeling right now?
Speaker 5: History awaits a bit nervous seeing how high this thing is,
Speaker 5: but we'll see how I go. I reckon. I'm still confident.
Speaker 4: Okay, so you get two shots. Good luck, Fin.
Speaker 3: It's always tough being the first one, but we'll wish
Speaker 3: you all the best luck favors the brave Finn off
Speaker 3: you go.
Speaker 5: Thank you? All right?
Speaker 7: Ready he's lining up three two, one, bang.
Speaker 3: Bob, don't look that noise the roof a right, hear that? Listeners,
Speaker 3: there's a noise, isn't there? The rack kit kind of went, oh,
Speaker 3: I got a ball going over shot. I've seen the stands.
Speaker 3: It bounces twice. It is in the stands. I would say,
Speaker 3: row three, he made it too good? I guessing there yet?
Speaker 3: Rod three? Hey first, so two of you now, Jack
Speaker 3: of the practice shot. But Finn did hit it into
Speaker 3: the arena first shot this morning. Well done, Finn. Rio
Speaker 3: who's up next?
Speaker 6: All right, we've got doctor Rob.
Speaker 7: He's our physics expert, and he's calculated all the parabblers,
Speaker 7: every little variable involved, and he's gonna hit it straight in.
Speaker 4: He tells me Jack I've got no idea what a
Speaker 4: parable it is?
Speaker 3: What is that?
Speaker 4: Hope?
Speaker 3: It sounds big, it sounds fancy. All right, Dr Rob,
Speaker 3: are you ready?
Speaker 5: I'm ready, Christian.
Speaker 12: It's a thirteen kilometer west of southwest winds, so the
Speaker 12: barabola probably needs to be at a round about forty
Speaker 12: five meters and a with a ball weighing fifty six grams.
Speaker 12: We're talking about one point five killer duels of energy.
Speaker 3: Okay, he's crunched the numbers. He's ready to go. Okay,
Speaker 3: Dr Rob, bring all the science now to athleticism. Unleash
Speaker 3: your inner power. Off you go, Dr Rob. First shot?
Speaker 5: Oh straight, that clang there.
Speaker 3: We don't need a sound effect, are we going? Do
Speaker 3: we need a sound efit like we heard it?
Speaker 6: Second shot coming up. Oh it's worse than the first shot.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, that sounded.
Speaker 5: We're going to be putting.
Speaker 3: That all right? That doctor's been struck off, Bye bye,
Speaker 3: Dr Rob. Who's up next?
Speaker 5: For all right?
Speaker 7: We've got Stephen who his wife is a sam STOs
Speaker 7: that look alike.
Speaker 6: Apparently that's good enough to get a spot in the competition.
Speaker 3: This is one of those where you're like, how did
Speaker 3: they get through? We are thousands going to pick me?
Speaker 3: Pick me?
Speaker 5: Wouldn't it make more sense to have the sam STOs
Speaker 5: that look alike here.
Speaker 3: I said on air, where it's like she can come
Speaker 3: down and take part.
Speaker 5: We've got the husband.
Speaker 3: Okay, we got the ring up. The guy who's going
Speaker 3: to win it.
Speaker 6: He said he's gonna get it in twice, so there's
Speaker 6: a lot.
Speaker 3: Of pressure that he's all right, all right, good luck, good.
Speaker 7: Luck Stephen, A good luck Steven. Three two one. He's
Speaker 7: moved very close.
Speaker 6: Oh, he's gone overarmed and it's over the road sounding.
Speaker 3: It's in the arena onto.
Speaker 5: The court, so it's the first one we've had on
Speaker 5: the court. Is just behind the umpire's box, so it's
Speaker 5: not a legal serve. We're about to find out how
Speaker 5: far he is currently is the closer, how.
Speaker 4: Far away we are?
Speaker 1: Fifteen?
Speaker 3: Great first shot though, very strong, sounded clean. Okay, let's
Speaker 3: get the second serve.
Speaker 6: Let's go Stephen. He's doing overarm serves. Oh that's good,
Speaker 6: it's high.
Speaker 5: It's huge. Monster shot in the exactly pretty much in
Speaker 5: the exact same position as his first one behind the umpires.
Speaker 4: Tell you what, we can't fault his accuracy.
Speaker 5: Fifteen meters.
Speaker 3: I would say, okay, well done, very good going so far.
Speaker 6: Who's up next, Rio, Christian, We've got our supermum.
Speaker 5: Kelly.
Speaker 7: She's a frustrated mum of four and she's ready to
Speaker 7: blow off some steam.
Speaker 4: One of the listener favorites.
Speaker 3: One of the listener favorites.
Speaker 5: Good morning, Kelly, Good morning Christian.
Speaker 6: How are you now?
Speaker 3: Listen good? I wish you all the best. You are
Speaker 3: one of the listener favorites. You know why, because they
Speaker 3: understand that frustration. I need to channel all that energy,
Speaker 3: all that anger and that frustration into the racket, into
Speaker 3: the ball and knock it into the Areena Kelly, I'm
Speaker 3: going to try to do this, get it on.
Speaker 5: I'm going to try. Good luck, come out, thank you.
Speaker 6: Here we go, right, here we go, Kelly, she's lining up.
Speaker 4: Come on, Kelly, under arms.
Speaker 3: It's going to clear the roof. Key Okay.
Speaker 7: Actually, it actually costs us money to retrieve the balls
Speaker 7: every time it gets stuck on the roof.
Speaker 5: So contestants, if we can.
Speaker 6: Please clear that roof.
Speaker 7: It's clipped the top corner of the roof and bounced
Speaker 7: back towards us.
Speaker 3: Unfortunately, Kelly, Kelly, I'm so sorry.
Speaker 13: All right, let's get one more, one more, all right,
Speaker 13: our last one for this round.
Speaker 5: We've got prew. She is a mom.
Speaker 7: She's hit the ball over her own house with a
Speaker 7: wooden racket. She now has a technifiber racket from Racket World,
Speaker 7: a modern racket best.
Speaker 3: I think Djokovic is playing with a couple of them tonight.
Speaker 3: He went out there yesterday to Epping to get them.
Speaker 3: He got that ten percent discount as well. He loves
Speaker 3: a bargain. It's the joker. All right, good luck, kiss
Speaker 3: my ace.
Speaker 5: Let's go prow.
Speaker 6: All right, here we go, prew three two one.
Speaker 5: H hit.
Speaker 7: She's shaking it off and she's ready to go for
Speaker 7: a second serve. Come on through three.
Speaker 3: Sous over Here we go.
Speaker 4: That's better.
Speaker 3: Oh it's the closest one so far.
Speaker 5: It's a few meters short of the baseline, so not
Speaker 5: a legal serve, but it could be our closest that
Speaker 5: we have yet.
Speaker 3: Great shot though, Oh wow, so good, very good. All right,
Speaker 3: let's play in excess right now. Seven twenty six, Christian
Speaker 3: O'Connell's show on Gold Live this morning from the Australian Open.
Speaker 2: The Christian O'Connell Show Podcast.

Speaker 3: Jack and I alive. This morning. We are on the
Speaker 3: court at the Key Arena for Knock It into the Park.
Speaker 3: There are sixteen contenders outside the arena. Each morning gets
Speaker 3: two shots, two serves to get it onto the court here.
Speaker 4: So far five have taken their shots.
Speaker 5: Only two have made it even into their a and
Speaker 5: now close as he's fifteen meters short of an illegal serve.
Speaker 5: So he's our current leader. His name is Stephen. He
Speaker 5: got in because his wife looks like Sam Stozer.
Speaker 3: That's good enough for us. That is literally wild seed.
Speaker 3: You know there's somebody's doing that in Grand Slams and
Speaker 3: wild seed. He's our wild seed. But everyone's done very
Speaker 3: well so far though. I've just had a quick look
Speaker 3: on the video replay. I've seen what happened with doctor
Speaker 3: Robs when it somehow, you know, he was all the
Speaker 3: talk of. He crunched all the numbers, the physics, the angles,
Speaker 3: he was moneyballing it. Oh well, he money, boughed it
Speaker 3: back at himself. The ball goes up into the end.
Speaker 3: Somehow he bent space and physics. Stephen Hawking will be
Speaker 3: spinning in his grave right now and it comes back,
Speaker 3: comes back on top of him and goes behind extraordinary
Speaker 3: scenes here today, all right, let's get into the Naked Hour.

Speaker 7: walking through.
Speaker 5: There's about to the administrators, the bureaucrats the way.
Speaker 3: How much aren't they? I can't start thinking that we've
Speaker 3: got to pay to get any balls at the land
Speaker 3: on the What is that? How do you charge something
Speaker 3: like that?
Speaker 6: We'll find out the costs will drop. A cost for

Speaker 5: I'm not sure.
Speaker 6: I think Jack has to go off.
Speaker 3: All right then, so who's already here?
Speaker 6: We've got Richard, the women's cricket coach.
Speaker 7: He smashes balls out of stadiums for a living, and
Speaker 7: now he's going to smash one into a stadium and
Speaker 7: hopefully win two amazing tickets.
Speaker 4: Rich Yeah, good luck, Richard, Thank you, Richard. How are
Speaker 4: you feeling? You think you can do it? No one
Speaker 4: on the court yet.
Speaker 5: Feeling good.

Speaker 4: Is how Australia plays cricket.
Speaker 5: It's saying this all that's sorry.
Speaker 3: It's Shore is coming in. It's oh in the stands.
Speaker 5: It's okay. Richard's quick, the quickest one, the closest one yet.
Speaker 5: I would guess twenty five.
Speaker 3: Don't mother measuring it? Okay, Rio, who have you got
Speaker 3: tough like Richard? Who's up next?
Speaker 5: Up here?
Speaker 7: We've got the dog walker, Tim, he's been practicing for
Speaker 7: five years.
Speaker 5: Whacking.
Speaker 3: They give a better intro.
Speaker 4: Than a dog walker. What's he just walking his dog? Nearby?
Speaker 3: The dog walker?
Speaker 5: Anyone can be.
Speaker 13: One, just to shout out to my dog Billy for
Speaker 13: getting me here. Thanks rich Oh, all right, listen, good
Speaker 13: luck buddy. Okay, all right, he's lining up. Great carves
Speaker 13: on him.
Speaker 5: Whack. Oh, he's hit at high but coming in. It's
Speaker 5: coming in.
Speaker 3: I see it. Oh, just behind the roll, landed on
Speaker 3: the court.
Speaker 4: Great shot.
Speaker 3: If I could say anything, he was aiming it just
Speaker 3: to the right. He's right, you're right straight.
Speaker 6: Oh, that's a good one. It's in the stadium.
Speaker 5: Shore as well. Okay, that's very close. I understand where
Speaker 5: it was. I'm going to say that that's ten meters
Speaker 5: away from and.
Speaker 4: So well done.
Speaker 3: Both shots. Both shots onto the court. Again, not a
Speaker 3: legal serve, but it's not to inclapart both shots. Is incredible,
Speaker 3: not really that straight. The tank measure that's going on
Speaker 3: at the moment, ten minutes of what it's all curvy
Speaker 3: shot is measuring. I've never seen how many meters.
Speaker 5: Yes, tens bang and yelling at me, give me Bundy
Speaker 5: and coke.
Speaker 3: Alright, rio, let's get one more.
Speaker 7: All right, we've got Live and Nick here, our double act.
Speaker 7: Live is actually pregnant. So we've got Live Nick. They
Speaker 7: got engaged on a tennis court. We've got our first
Speaker 7: pregnant hitter.
Speaker 3: These people are just tennis mad. They just love this year.
Speaker 5: So they're going to hit at the same time.
Speaker 6: No, they're going to do one straight after another.
Speaker 5: So lives getting no, no.
Speaker 3: No, no, let's do it the same time. Double shots,
Speaker 3: double shots on a Friday.
Speaker 6: All right, they're lining up, they're facing.
Speaker 3: Good love, all right, Leave and Nick hitting together.
Speaker 6: Three, two, one, go, Oh, yes, it's over.
Speaker 3: The court.
Speaker 5: Wow, we no messing four meters from the service box.
Speaker 5: It's the first one to land in the court.
Speaker 3: I've actually got goosebumps.
Speaker 5: I can't tell if I Live or nixt shot which
Speaker 5: one went over the roof.
Speaker 7: That probably would have been Nick's Live hit the roof,
Speaker 7: so unlikely it was her, so I reckon that's probably Nick.
Speaker 4: They play us one, They play us one.
Speaker 5: There are current leaders and do you know what the winner?
Speaker 3: He is here right now? Love, okay, the second shot
Speaker 3: right now? Oh no, they just get the one because
Speaker 3: another case, mister rule. All of a suddenly giant square
Speaker 3: hang out with the administrators.
Speaker 5: Again. Three two, one, come on, you can do this.
Speaker 3: Double shots. The power one comes in.
Speaker 5: But it's not going to challenge the leader at the moment.
Speaker 5: So Nick and Live are currently four meters from the
Speaker 5: service box, so they are our closest served so far.
Speaker 3: Well done, guys. We're going to take a break. We'll
Speaker 3: come back to Knock It into the Park.
