87
00:04:12,485 --> 00:04:15,685
Speaker 2: there used to be a class pet table idea and

88
00:04:15,725 --> 00:04:18,724

00:04:18,724 --> 00:04:22,804
Speaker 2: weekend and hilarity did not ensue normally that thing was

90
00:04:22,885 --> 00:04:26,125
Speaker 2: lost or worse than that, perished over the weekend. But

91
00:04:26,164 --> 00:04:28,205
Speaker 2: it used to be a well known thing, didn't it.

92
00:04:28,284 --> 00:04:30,724
Speaker 2: A class would have you know it, maybe something like

93
00:04:30,804 --> 00:04:33,885
Speaker 2: a guinea pig. Did you guys ever get to look

94
00:04:33,924 --> 00:04:35,525

Speaker 1: Class of simpletons in that whole year.

100
00:04:53,804 --> 00:04:56,565
Speaker 2: Must have been a bunch of thickies that could like,

101
00:04:56,765 --> 00:04:58,724
Speaker 2: oh we got a special thing and just grab that.

102
00:04:59,765 --> 00:05:02,404
Speaker 1: Probably a rat, actually that was just a big ass.

103
00:05:02,724 --> 00:05:06,364
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, that's Marsel the mouse, big thick tail

106
00:05:11,964 --> 00:05:16,085
Speaker 7: house outhouse off the science wing at high school, and

107
00:05:16,125 --> 00:05:16,844
Speaker 7: it's stank.

108
00:05:17,245 --> 00:05:18,284

110
00:05:21,125 --> 00:05:24,684
Speaker 2: outhouse where they would conduct weird experiments in there, probably

111
00:05:24,685 --> 00:05:27,885
Speaker 2: for nefarious government agencies. I thought, you know they're up

112
00:05:27,885 --> 00:05:31,325
Speaker 2: to they're up to shnanigans in the skullduggery is one

00:05:32,724 --> 00:05:34,724
Speaker 1: More than just our teaching.

115
00:05:34,724 --> 00:05:36,365
Speaker 7: Mister Novak used to go in there and have a

116
00:05:36,445 --> 00:05:40,125
Speaker 7: durry at lunchtime and have a cigarette in amongst the smell.

117

119
00:05:47,364 --> 00:05:49,005
Speaker 2: had that room where they were just crying there and

120
00:05:49,085 --> 00:05:52,204
Speaker 2: drink heavily.

121
00:05:53,044 --> 00:05:54,085
Speaker 1: And also they didn't like you.

122
00:05:54,445 --> 00:05:56,364
Speaker 2: We used to always like walk by and just stare

123
00:05:56,404 --> 00:05:58,044
Speaker 2: at the right and they used to go berserk, like

124
00:05:58,085 --> 00:05:58,525
Speaker 2: bang them.

125
00:05:58,445 --> 00:05:59,684
Speaker 1: When you go stop. Look again.

126
00:06:00,445 --> 00:06:05,724
Speaker 2: They needed that break, and it was like thick winds.

127
00:06:06,044 --> 00:06:08,605
Speaker 2: And also not just cigarette smoke like fall to a

128
00:06:08,724 --> 00:06:13,685
Speaker 2: secrets pipes. There's no teachers now smoking pipes. But they

129
00:06:13,685 --> 00:06:16,604
Speaker 2: were like especially the older teachers like history teachers.

130
00:06:16,205 --> 00:06:19,364
Speaker 7: About it was always the history teacher had a pipe.

131
00:06:19,125 --> 00:06:20,765
Speaker 1: Big old thick pipe.

132
00:06:20,364 --> 00:06:25,404
Speaker 7: Yeah, just like city in big old stone there.

133
00:06:26,125 --> 00:06:27,565
Speaker 1: Yeah, our one, right.

134
00:06:28,125 --> 00:06:31,724
Speaker 2: I used to smoke a pipe during class, so we

135
00:06:31,765 --> 00:06:38,724
Speaker 2: do Wilson to make a salient point and it would

136
00:06:38,724 --> 00:06:41,844
Speaker 2: take it out on points the mouth and you, boy,

137
00:06:42,404 --> 00:06:47,645
Speaker 2: I don't see after start chewing on that fillows cancer

138
00:06:47,685 --> 00:06:48,364
Speaker 2: states out.

139
00:06:48,245 --> 00:06:49,324
Speaker 1: Of the pipe between their teeth.

140
00:06:49,445 --> 00:06:53,885
Speaker 7: Yeah, we had mice.

141
00:06:54,205 --> 00:06:55,724
Speaker 1: Alex, what did you have? We didn't.

142
00:06:56,085 --> 00:06:59,365
Speaker 2: We didn't have any of the boarding school each other

143
00:06:59,364 --> 00:07:03,164
Speaker 2: around in the old pet about there again in the

144
00:07:03,205 --> 00:07:04,485
Speaker 2: dorms light.

145
00:07:05,645 --> 00:07:07,244
Speaker 1: Being in the country. I don't think they really trusted it.

146
00:07:07,525 --> 00:07:10,805
Speaker 1: Heavy class pit. No, we didn't have any. We had

147
00:07:10,845 --> 00:07:13,445
Speaker 1: lots of snakes in the in the school. We were

148
00:07:13,445 --> 00:07:14,445
Speaker 1: talking about the other day.

149
00:07:14,525 --> 00:07:19,165
Speaker 2: To take a pet snake over, especially brown dad, look

150
00:07:19,205 --> 00:07:22,605
Speaker 2: at this snake at school. Probably I reckon once a

151
00:07:22,645 --> 00:07:25,205
Speaker 2: month at least. But no, we never had a pit.

152
00:07:25,325 --> 00:07:27,285
Speaker 2: Did you ever get taken back? I imagine you were

153
00:07:27,285 --> 00:07:28,444
Speaker 2: a prefect like Patsy.

154
00:07:28,725 --> 00:07:31,365
Speaker 5: I think the pets were. I mean I was school

155
00:07:31,445 --> 00:07:32,245
Speaker 5: vice captain.

156
00:07:31,965 --> 00:07:34,685
Speaker 1: But it debate captain.

157
00:07:35,485 --> 00:07:39,045
Speaker 5: Yeah, but I think it was getting phased out. I'd

158
00:07:39,045 --> 00:07:40,765
Speaker 5: love to know people still do it, because we didn't

159
00:07:40,804 --> 00:07:42,925
Speaker 5: have any pets by all the time I was at school.

160
00:07:42,925 --> 00:07:45,485
Speaker 2: You weren't, just didn't. I can't imagine it's allowed to

161
00:07:45,485 --> 00:07:49,165
Speaker 2: do now. It seems crazy and rightly so. Animals have rights,

162
00:07:49,765 --> 00:07:53,564
Speaker 2: and one of them is young psychos aka kids don't

163
00:07:53,605 --> 00:07:56,205
Speaker 2: look after us at the weekend. People that can't look

164
00:07:56,245 --> 00:07:59,165
Speaker 2: after themselves and trusted with a school pet. It's a

165
00:07:59,245 --> 00:08:01,925
Speaker 2: terrible idea, all right, called it now thirteen fifty five

166
00:08:02,005 --> 00:08:04,205
Speaker 2: twenty two. Did you get to look after the class pet?

167
00:08:04,285 --> 00:08:06,244
Speaker 1: What was it? And does it still happen to this day?

168
00:08:07,405 --> 00:08:10,645
Speaker 4: You were Christian O'Connell show podcast.

169
00:08:11,765 --> 00:08:13,605
Speaker 1: Taking you back to school, two women.

170
00:08:13,685 --> 00:08:17,085
Speaker 2: We used to have class pets, an actual animal and

171
00:08:17,125 --> 00:08:19,485
Speaker 2: then wait for it. The kicker is we were allowed

172
00:08:19,485 --> 00:08:23,324
Speaker 2: to take it home, so I revenber. Actually sometimes during

173
00:08:23,485 --> 00:08:26,285
Speaker 2: the summer holidays someone would have it for a couple

174
00:08:26,285 --> 00:08:29,925
Speaker 2: of weeks and that you never saw that animal ever again.

175
00:08:30,165 --> 00:08:32,245
Speaker 1: It was everything brought up, like, hey, why has that rabbit?

176
00:08:32,285 --> 00:08:35,204
Speaker 2: By the way, they weren't even asked. The school were

177
00:08:35,245 --> 00:08:39,845
Speaker 2: like and that's the end of that problem. Though, because

178
00:08:39,925 --> 00:08:42,204
Speaker 2: one of the old thickies has got it, you know,

179
00:08:42,285 --> 00:08:47,845
Speaker 2: like from some meny. Yes, Lenny, we've got a real

180
00:08:47,845 --> 00:08:50,645
Speaker 2: life Lenny, I didn't heard a rabbit.

181
00:08:52,045 --> 00:08:54,084
Speaker 1: Blenda's on the line. Blenda, you're a teacher.

182
00:08:54,485 --> 00:08:56,804
Speaker 6: Yes i am. I'm a primary school teacher, right, just.

183
00:08:56,725 --> 00:08:58,844
Speaker 2: Who we're looking for this morning. So do you still

184
00:08:58,845 --> 00:08:59,925
Speaker 2: have class pets?

185
00:09:00,405 --> 00:09:00,605
Speaker 3: No?

186
00:09:00,765 --> 00:09:04,725
Speaker 6: Up until five Up until five years ago, I had

187
00:09:04,845 --> 00:09:08,965
Speaker 6: four blue tongue lizards and quite a lot of finally

188
00:09:09,084 --> 00:09:11,525
Speaker 6: stick insects, right.

189
00:09:11,725 --> 00:09:13,804
Speaker 2: Right, all right, And so there's no more of this

190
00:09:13,925 --> 00:09:16,325
Speaker 2: any more. Kids getting to look after over the weekend.

191
00:09:17,925 --> 00:09:20,965
Speaker 6: Well, they used to see them during class and take

192
00:09:21,005 --> 00:09:23,725
Speaker 6: them out. They'd stick the spine leaf stick insects on

193
00:09:23,765 --> 00:09:26,325
Speaker 6: their pencil cases, or they call up their arms on

194
00:09:26,365 --> 00:09:32,205
Speaker 6: their heads, and when the stick insects multiplied, they would

195
00:09:32,245 --> 00:09:34,805
Speaker 6: be able to take them home and peat them. Right,

196
00:09:35,204 --> 00:09:37,084
Speaker 6: because when they multiplied, you'd get hundreds.

197
00:09:38,245 --> 00:09:42,405
Speaker 2: It's the seven of the rabbits as well. Stick Linda,

198

00:10:06,965 --> 00:10:09,085
Speaker 2: I need to speak to Sean. Welcome to the show.

209
00:10:10,045 --> 00:10:11,285
Speaker 3: Thank you, Christian.

210
00:10:11,684 --> 00:10:14,325
Speaker 1: So you're a fellow bird lover. Are you an ornithologist?

211
00:10:15,485 --> 00:10:19,165
Speaker 3: No, no, but I am. I work with BirdLife Australia

212
00:10:19,204 --> 00:10:21,645
Speaker 3: who run the Aussie Bird Count every year, which is

213
00:10:21,684 --> 00:10:25,165
Speaker 3: just about to kick off in October. So I'm on

214
00:10:25,285 --> 00:10:29,605
Speaker 3: the bridge between the bird nerds and the general public translator.

215
00:10:30,365 --> 00:10:31,684
Speaker 1: Yes, right, I gotcha.

216
00:10:31,845 --> 00:10:32,845
Speaker 3: I speak bird and.

217
00:10:36,045 --> 00:10:38,405
Speaker 1: Love it Sean. What is the bird Count then? What

218
00:10:38,525 --> 00:10:38,725
Speaker 1: is that?

219
00:10:39,804 --> 00:10:42,724
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a thing we do at BirdLife Australia every

220
00:10:42,804 --> 00:10:45,725
Speaker 3: year where we get people to count the download the

221
00:10:45,725 --> 00:10:48,165
Speaker 3: bird Count app and count birds in their backyard.

222
00:10:48,204 --> 00:10:51,925
Speaker 1: Oh my god, we got we're talking Okay, the listeners

223
00:10:51,925 --> 00:10:52,364
Speaker 1: to do this.

224
00:10:53,564 --> 00:10:56,564
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, we'd love it because it feels in a

225
00:10:56,645 --> 00:11:00,045
Speaker 3: huge gap of knowledge for us at BirdLife because we

226
00:11:00,045 --> 00:11:02,765
Speaker 3: don't know enough about our common birds. We focus generally

227
00:11:02,804 --> 00:11:05,765
Speaker 3: on rare birds and so this really helps, but also

228
00:11:06,045 --> 00:11:08,885
Speaker 3: it means that people can work out what what the

229
00:11:08,925 --> 00:11:10,644
Speaker 3: hell it is that's making that noise.

230
00:11:10,405 --> 00:11:12,684
Speaker 1: In that that's me. That's me today, Shawn, You're just right.

231
00:11:12,804 --> 00:11:14,244
Speaker 3: I made this app I do.

232
00:11:14,444 --> 00:11:14,885
Speaker 1: What's the app?

233
00:11:14,925 --> 00:11:16,485
Speaker 2: Because I know there's probably a lot of people listening

234
00:11:16,525 --> 00:11:18,805
Speaker 2: that fancy doing this and if you've got kids and family,

235
00:11:18,845 --> 00:11:20,405
Speaker 2: what a great thing to do teaching about the ones

236
00:11:20,444 --> 00:11:21,165
Speaker 2: of the natural world.

237
00:11:21,405 --> 00:11:22,125
Speaker 1: What's the app?

238
00:11:23,005 --> 00:11:26,325
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's called the Ossie bird Camp app and it's

239
00:11:26,605 --> 00:11:29,324
Speaker 3: the registrations have just open so you can download it,

240
00:11:29,365 --> 00:11:33,364
Speaker 3: but you can't count until October. But there's a little

241
00:11:33,405 --> 00:11:35,965
Speaker 3: feature on the app which you can put the details

242
00:11:36,005 --> 00:11:38,365
Speaker 3: of a bird you see, like its size, shape and color,

243
00:11:38,405 --> 00:11:41,485
Speaker 3: and it'll give you some suggestions with photos of what

244
00:11:41,525 --> 00:11:44,525
Speaker 3: that bird might actually be that's driving in nuts in

245
00:11:44,564 --> 00:11:45,084
Speaker 3: your backyard.

246
00:11:45,165 --> 00:11:46,324
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is me right now? Then?

247
00:11:46,405 --> 00:11:50,205
Speaker 2: What by Sean is this? It's three parts to it.

248
00:11:50,204 --> 00:11:55,444
Speaker 2: It's uh all day long, twenty four seven. It goes

249
00:11:55,444 --> 00:11:58,084
Speaker 2: to work at about five thirty am.

250
00:11:58,285 --> 00:12:00,444
Speaker 1: Uh uh what is that?

251
00:12:00,444 --> 00:12:08,324
Speaker 3: Sean Unkenny? Is your just what your impersonation is? I

252
00:12:09,125 --> 00:12:12,085
Speaker 3: think with the tonya using I reckon It's actually a

253
00:12:12,125 --> 00:12:16,204
Speaker 3: pied curral which is like a member of the magpie family,

254
00:12:17,005 --> 00:12:19,605
Speaker 3: but it's a bit bigger, with a with a yellow

255
00:12:19,645 --> 00:12:23,045
Speaker 3: eye and much more black. And they people who've been

256
00:12:23,084 --> 00:12:25,125
Speaker 3: to the snow would know it because it used to

257
00:12:25,165 --> 00:12:27,045
Speaker 3: sort of only be up in the mountains, but they've

258
00:12:27,165 --> 00:12:31,245
Speaker 3: they've migrated into the cities in like Sydney in the

259
00:12:31,285 --> 00:12:34,125
Speaker 3: eighties and nineties, then Melbourne in the last twenty years.

260
00:12:34,365 --> 00:12:37,604
Speaker 3: And I reckon that that might that might be the call.

261
00:12:37,645 --> 00:12:40,125
Speaker 3: It's giving a it's quite a loud one and.

262
00:12:40,165 --> 00:12:43,165
Speaker 2: Yeah, really really, i'd say loud splash irritating.

263
00:12:44,444 --> 00:12:45,885
Speaker 1: You can't sleep in at the weekend.

264
00:12:45,965 --> 00:12:49,885
Speaker 2: That thing is up there at like five thirty am.

265
00:12:50,285 --> 00:12:52,925
Speaker 2: It's like, get up and you can't turn that. You know,

266
00:12:53,045 --> 00:12:55,485
Speaker 2: some bird noises you turn them off, you can kind

267
00:12:55,525 --> 00:12:55,844
Speaker 2: of like.

268
00:12:58,365 --> 00:12:59,645
Speaker 1: So it's a pied.

269
00:12:59,405 --> 00:13:02,085
Speaker 3: Krawan, yes, yeah, black and white one.

270
00:13:02,165 --> 00:13:03,645
Speaker 1: So there different types of krawan.

271
00:13:04,525 --> 00:13:07,525
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a there's a gray carawong, but that's much

272
00:13:07,605 --> 00:13:10,765
Speaker 3: more found out in the bush, right, and so you

273
00:13:10,845 --> 00:13:14,125
Speaker 3: get it on the fringes of Melbourne and sort of

274
00:13:14,204 --> 00:13:16,245
Speaker 3: Geelong and prices like that, but it's not really in

275
00:13:16,285 --> 00:13:19,124
Speaker 3: the suburbs much. There's another line in Tezzi called the

276
00:13:19,204 --> 00:13:21,605
Speaker 3: Black carow On, which is the biggest of the lot.
