WEBVTT - MINI: Irrational Fear

0:00:01.520 --> 0:00:04.800
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to them, Christian no Common show podcast.

0:00:05.040 --> 0:00:08.080
<v Speaker 2>What a rational thing that makes no sense now scared

0:00:08.119 --> 0:00:10.440
<v Speaker 2>you as a kid. When I was growing up, my

0:00:10.640 --> 0:00:12.039
<v Speaker 2>mum used to play a lot of music and we

0:00:12.200 --> 0:00:14.560
<v Speaker 2>dance together around the front room. And she loved Springsteen,

0:00:14.600 --> 0:00:16.320
<v Speaker 2>she loved Bob Seeg and she also loves Simon a

0:00:16.400 --> 0:00:19.560
<v Speaker 2>Delph Funkle, and I still like someone a Goldfunkle. However,

0:00:19.600 --> 0:00:21.720
<v Speaker 2>she had this album and there was I think it

0:00:21.720 --> 0:00:23.360
<v Speaker 2>was Bridge over Troubled Water, and on the front of

0:00:23.400 --> 0:00:26.280
<v Speaker 2>that album cover they were light together and Art garf

0:00:26.320 --> 0:00:29.160
<v Speaker 2>uncle's hair. For me as a fight fright, there was

0:00:29.200 --> 0:00:33.519
<v Speaker 2>this kid. God, it's like a clown humanoid, and I

0:00:34.120 --> 0:00:35.720
<v Speaker 2>would have to turn the album cover and.

0:00:35.640 --> 0:00:38.040
<v Speaker 1>Face the wall because I was that. Even if I

0:00:38.080 --> 0:00:40.720
<v Speaker 1>see it now, I mean, I'm rubbing my stomach now.

0:00:40.720 --> 0:00:43.239
<v Speaker 2>You neither when you're nervous. Even now, if I saw that,

0:00:43.280 --> 0:00:44.920
<v Speaker 2>I would cower on a corner. And it's got some

0:00:44.960 --> 0:00:47.600
<v Speaker 2>sort of power over that. Man I was sending yourself.

0:00:47.640 --> 0:00:49.800
<v Speaker 2>I was off of the chance to interview Art garfunk call.

0:00:49.720 --> 0:00:52.680
<v Speaker 1>And I turned it down. I can't say I'd be

0:00:52.800 --> 0:00:53.560
<v Speaker 1>sick uns.

0:00:57.760 --> 0:00:59.640
<v Speaker 2>So as a five year old, it made no sense

0:00:59.680 --> 0:01:02.240
<v Speaker 2>I love music, but aren't gone Fune called, in particular

0:01:02.360 --> 0:01:02.720
<v Speaker 2>his hair.

0:01:05.280 --> 0:01:08.520
<v Speaker 1>See, okay, this is fine, I see a picture of hair,

0:01:10.880 --> 0:01:13.600
<v Speaker 1>Jackie boy, what a rational thing scared you as a kid.

0:01:13.480 --> 0:01:15.240
<v Speaker 3>I asked my mom last night because I couldn't think

0:01:15.280 --> 0:01:17.320
<v Speaker 3>of anything, and then she goes, well, don't you remember

0:01:17.400 --> 0:01:21.520
<v Speaker 3>you were scared up until age ten of real life movies,

0:01:22.120 --> 0:01:25.560
<v Speaker 3>which was just any movie, no mater how safe it was,

0:01:25.640 --> 0:01:28.280
<v Speaker 3>or even if it's a kids movie that contained actors.

0:01:28.520 --> 0:01:32.280
<v Speaker 3>I would only watch animated films, so much so that

0:01:32.360 --> 0:01:35.000
<v Speaker 3>we went to see Ninja Turtles once and us to

0:01:35.040 --> 0:01:36.080
<v Speaker 3>go home halfway through.

0:01:36.160 --> 0:01:43.279
<v Speaker 1>This is a little bit too close to home Turtles animated. Yes,

0:01:43.480 --> 0:01:43.760
<v Speaker 1>there was.

0:01:43.760 --> 0:01:46.720
<v Speaker 2>Some real life it was in a half shelf and

0:01:46.800 --> 0:01:48.360
<v Speaker 2>again up until the age of ten.

0:01:50.760 --> 0:01:55.080
<v Speaker 3>Ten, yes, I thought this was sorry.

0:01:55.200 --> 0:01:59.600
<v Speaker 1>I was the understanding ten.

0:02:00.040 --> 0:02:02.360
<v Speaker 2>And of course you're ten, you know, get ready of

0:02:02.360 --> 0:02:05.600
<v Speaker 2>a big school and those Ninja girls sleepless night?

0:02:08.480 --> 0:02:09.280
<v Speaker 1>What were you scared of?

0:02:10.200 --> 0:02:13.320
<v Speaker 4>I love dogs, but I love the tops of dogs.

0:02:13.760 --> 0:02:19.840
<v Speaker 4>I hate and terrified of the underbelly pink bit ye yeah,

0:02:19.919 --> 0:02:23.400
<v Speaker 4>what is that? And people love to scratch, they like

0:02:23.440 --> 0:02:25.280
<v Speaker 4>to get.

0:02:26.120 --> 0:02:29.480
<v Speaker 2>He is like a pig belly yes, yes, yes, yes,

0:02:30.919 --> 0:02:32.119
<v Speaker 2>and it's got the little teeth.

0:02:34.320 --> 0:02:35.760
<v Speaker 1>They've got there. No, no, no, no.

0:02:35.840 --> 0:02:37.840
<v Speaker 3>The best thing is you scratch that bit of their

0:02:37.840 --> 0:02:40.079
<v Speaker 3>belly and their leg kicks a little bit.

0:02:40.360 --> 0:02:45.160
<v Speaker 1>Yes, what is that? It's like a little factory. Christian

<v Speaker 1>Connell's show podcast.

0:02:47.760 --> 0:02:50.960
<v Speaker 2>We're asking you now, then, what thing irrational thing scared

0:02:51.000 --> 0:02:53.679
<v Speaker 2>you as a kid? Nine four one four one o

0:02:53.840 --> 0:02:56.720
<v Speaker 2>four five Christian. For me, the irrational thing that terrified

0:02:56.760 --> 0:02:58.799
<v Speaker 2>me was raw chicken. I hated it. Yeah, because the

0:02:58.840 --> 0:03:00.080
<v Speaker 2>rest of the us are all licking in, he.

0:03:00.080 --> 0:03:03.800
<v Speaker 1>Says, obstacle. I don't like raw chicken.

0:03:03.840 --> 0:03:07.079
<v Speaker 2>Now gives him the technical term of as heb gbs.

0:03:07.320 --> 0:03:10.880
<v Speaker 2>I stand touching it. I like burn my fingers afterwards.

0:03:11.320 --> 0:03:14.000
<v Speaker 3>I think that is native to every person, just because

0:03:14.040 --> 0:03:14.960
<v Speaker 3>it will kill us if.

0:03:14.840 --> 0:03:15.240
<v Speaker 1>We eat it.

0:03:15.480 --> 0:03:18.280
<v Speaker 2>I think that's a very rational logical fit to have

0:03:18.400 --> 0:03:21.600
<v Speaker 2>of raw chicken, because it's very dangerous to treat it right,

0:03:22.080 --> 0:03:24.000
<v Speaker 2>All right, your rational fairs as a kid, Christian.

0:03:24.040 --> 0:03:28.480
<v Speaker 1>For me, this is Joe Jim Carey and the Cable Guy.

0:03:28.880 --> 0:03:32.200
<v Speaker 3>Oh maybe I shouldn't have coming off.

0:03:33.040 --> 0:03:34.800
<v Speaker 2>He winted me out so much of an eat finish

0:03:34.960 --> 0:03:39.200
<v Speaker 2>watching the movie Steve Christian, My wife has a phobia

0:03:39.200 --> 0:03:42.000

<v Speaker 1>Made of roccey.

0:03:43.160 --> 0:03:44.080
<v Speaker 3>That is scary.

0:04:48.960 --> 0:04:49.360
<v Speaker 5>you well?

0:04:49.560 --> 0:04:51.720
<v Speaker 2>Good Rachel, thanks for calling the show. So let's go

0:04:51.760 --> 0:04:54.320
<v Speaker 2>back to your childhood, Rachel, what's irrational? Things scared you.

0:04:54.240 --> 0:04:54.760
<v Speaker 1>As a kid?

0:04:55.320 --> 0:04:58.880
<v Speaker 6>The escalators at the supermarket. I'm petrified of getting sucked

0:04:58.960 --> 0:05:01.840
<v Speaker 6>up into the grill at the end. My mum used

0:05:01.880 --> 0:05:03.719
<v Speaker 6>to threaten me as a kid, make sure you stay

0:05:03.760 --> 0:05:05.640
<v Speaker 6>on it between the lines and make sure you jump,

0:05:05.640 --> 0:05:07.680
<v Speaker 6>because they'll suck you with and kids get killed that way.

0:05:07.760 --> 0:05:10.479
<v Speaker 1>So this is where it came from.

0:05:10.520 --> 0:05:13.880
<v Speaker 5>No wonder you're friend of them.

0:05:14.080 --> 0:05:16.440
<v Speaker 6>Still to this day, I still make sure I jump

0:05:16.520 --> 0:05:18.680
<v Speaker 6>when I exit the escalator and make sure I don't

0:05:18.720 --> 0:05:18.920
<v Speaker 6>get that.

0:05:19.120 --> 0:05:23.520
<v Speaker 2>I'm still very respectful and cautious when I enter an escalator.

0:05:23.560 --> 0:05:25.880
<v Speaker 3>No I am my mom My mum's thing was. It

0:05:25.920 --> 0:05:27.800
<v Speaker 3>starts with the shoelace as if it was going to

0:05:27.839 --> 0:05:30.000
<v Speaker 3>grab your shoelace and you'll pull the rest of you in.

0:05:30.040 --> 0:05:34.080
<v Speaker 2>It'll be flung around for decades screaming, like some extra

0:05:34.160 --> 0:05:36.599
<v Speaker 2>scene from the Childie and a Chocolate Factory.

0:05:38.680 --> 0:05:41.400
<v Speaker 1>I get that one, Rachel, I get it. Rachel, Thank

0:05:41.400 --> 0:05:41.920
<v Speaker 1>you very much.

0:05:41.920 --> 0:05:42.160

<v Speaker 1>Bye, Marie Gaday, here you go. I'm good, Marie. And

0:05:48.640 --> 0:05:51.000
<v Speaker 1>what scared you as a kid As.

0:05:50.880 --> 0:05:53.240
<v Speaker 7>A kid, I was scared of something lessened. There was

0:05:53.279 --> 0:05:55.680
<v Speaker 7>a light in the pool that I was convinced was

0:05:55.680 --> 0:05:56.560
<v Speaker 7>going to cut me to pieces.

0:05:56.800 --> 0:05:58.960
<v Speaker 1>Well with some kind of laser or something.

0:05:59.440 --> 0:06:02.360
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, cut you to pieces.

0:06:02.680 --> 0:06:05.039
<v Speaker 2>This is what is with these powerful imaginations, didn't we

0:06:05.040 --> 0:06:06.720
<v Speaker 2>It's going to cut you into pieces.

0:06:07.400 --> 0:06:09.800
<v Speaker 7>I think it's stemmed from watching an episode of Doctor

0:06:09.800 --> 0:06:11.040
<v Speaker 7>Who or something is a cute.

0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:13.279
<v Speaker 3>So did you never go? Can you not swim?

0:06:13.320 --> 0:06:13.520
<v Speaker 2>Now?

<v Speaker 6>Now.

0:06:21.120 --> 0:06:24.640
<v Speaker 7>At the time, my parents had to move pools because

0:06:24.680 --> 0:06:25.960
<v Speaker 7>I wouldn't get back in the book.

0:06:25.839 --> 0:06:32.120
