Speaker 4: He hasn't been getting a lot of press. I haven't

Speaker 2: to beat them to death. Because even I'm watching it,
Speaker 2: I'm not oh my god, who is it? And the
Speaker 2: other bit is where? So these people are hard at
Speaker 2: work and suddenly Gordon Ramsey comes flying it.
Speaker 1: He just goes shut it down, shut it down, go home,
Speaker 1: and people go.
Speaker 2: Here and we'll be like, no, in my one, you've
Speaker 2: committed a major felony breaking in right, and.
Speaker 4: Then he shut it down, shut it down. You go home,
Speaker 4: everyone go home.

Speaker 4: The last one I saw was the Greek restaurant and
Speaker 4: he storms in. It's a full restaurant, it's packed, and
Speaker 4: he goes put down that.
Speaker 1: Lamb, eat that lamb.
Speaker 5: Cut out.
Speaker 4: He's not even the owner of the restaurant and these people.
Speaker 2: It's genuinely one of the most unintentionally funny shows.

Speaker 1: The other thing that my wife and I saw watched this.
Speaker 2: Week, which is outstanding is called Code of so Silence.
Speaker 2: It's been getting rave views. It's a British TV police
Speaker 2: drama and it is so good. I think it's the
Speaker 2: same team that did Line of Duty, which is one
Speaker 2: of the one of the best TV shows the last
Speaker 2: ten years. Code of Silence is a really, really great show.
Speaker 2: They're trying to take down a gang. The gang only
Speaker 2: meet in public places where there's a lot of background
Speaker 2: noise so they can't be bugged. They need a lip reader,
Speaker 2: and it's this amazing deaf actress. She is phenomenal and
Speaker 2: she's going to be a breakout star. She is so good.
Speaker 2: I cannot recommend the show enough. It's up there with
Speaker 2: Gordon Ramsey's Secret Service in terms of amazing acting and casting.
Speaker 1: The too. You can't separate them.
Speaker 2: That's Code of Silence, and that is on It's three,
Speaker 2: it's on SBS. I know, you know when there's a
Speaker 2: good show, it's one of the free ones. I don't
Speaker 2: have to pay for them, just getting SBS.
Speaker 6: Or if you have paid for it and you go

Speaker 7: It looks great, it's brilliant.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 7: He describes it as a love letter to his dad,
Speaker 7: Martin Sheen, and it is absolutely behind the curtain, no
Speaker 7: holds barred and just a guy, you know, battling substance
Speaker 7: and addiction, abuse and just telling it how it how
Speaker 7: it was. So he's seven years sober and you see
Speaker 7: all the old you know movies. Obviously his dad's a
Speaker 7: famous actor, but he was just a born actor. Him
Speaker 7: and his brother emilioest affairs and you get to see
Speaker 7: their home videos from when they were.
Speaker 1: Like the original brat Pack. Yes where the Keitha Sutherlands.
Speaker 7: Great actors and they were almost like the original Jackass.
Speaker 7: These videos of him and his brother, you know, like
Speaker 7: pretending to knock one another off. And it's it's absolutely
Speaker 7: some of the some of the parts. You're sitting there thinking,
Speaker 7: I actually don't believe what he's saying to wild life
Speaker 7: his first honeymoon. They're on the jet to wherever they
Speaker 7: were going. I forget now. But he wanted to meet
Speaker 7: the pilot. He wanted a photo with the pilot.
Speaker 4: He was off his.

Speaker 7: so many of those bottles of little Scotch. He said,
Speaker 7: I was so drunk, went I wanted a photo, and
Speaker 7: he said to the pilot, who I think was friend,
Speaker 7: he said, oh, you know, it's not a photo without
Speaker 7: your jacket and your hat, and so yeah, yeah, go,
Speaker 7: you know, sit in.
Speaker 4: The chair that took and he said.
Speaker 7: The pilot said, and do you want to fly the plane?
Speaker 1: And he said, I'm not.
Speaker 7: A pilot, and he goes, no, I just like took
Speaker 7: it off auto pilot and let Charlie Sheen fly the plane.
Speaker 7: And he said it was just outrageous because I was
Speaker 7: off my head and I had like four hundred.

Speaker 1: That's crazy, and.
Speaker 7: Just put it back on auto pilot and just yeah,

Speaker 7: had like eight lines and he went to his dad, Martin,
Speaker 7: and he said, listen, I've got this opportunity to do

Speaker 7: absolutely massive. And Martin said, no, you've committed yourself to
Speaker 7: to this Budapest job.
Speaker 4: You've got to do that.
Speaker 7: Otherwise you'll earn yourself a really bad name if you
Speaker 7: pull out of projects like that. You you've committed to it,
Speaker 7: you've got to do it. Meant to be wasn't meant
Speaker 7: to be. So it's brilliant. Yeah, aka Charlie Sheen on
Speaker 7: Netflix great.
Speaker 1: And Platoon as well. And Tom Berenger, Yeah about outstanding. Yes.
Speaker 3: The Christian o'connall Show podcast.
Speaker 2: Friday Mornings to Christian O'Connell show, we're doing double thumbs up.
Speaker 2: We go around the team on a Friday and we
Speaker 2: share what we're into at the moment. Alex Connen, what
Speaker 2: are you enjoying at the moment?
Speaker 6: Well, this is great news for football lovers because when
Speaker 6: the AFL season is over, what are you gonna watch?
Speaker 6: We look at you look at the NFL. The National
Speaker 6: Football League season twenty twenty five, twenty six has started.
Speaker 6: It started last weekend and I just love NFL. I'm
Speaker 6: so into it.
Speaker 1: I listened to all the podcasts, Great What.
Speaker 2: I Say, I'm a Carl Brandt fan, and Good Morning Football.
Speaker 1: So I listened to that podcast.
Speaker 2: I've decided that this year, this season, I'm gonna follow it.
Speaker 2: Oh wow, that's why I was talking about Aaron Rodgers
Speaker 2: the other day. I've been watching the highlights of his debut.
Speaker 2: So what's good to listen to you? Because it's really
Speaker 2: hard as a complete outsider to understand there's so many
Speaker 2: different positions and players in the offensive defense.
Speaker 6: Well, there's fifty three players on a roster, and there's
Speaker 6: defense and there's offense. So if you're in defense all
Speaker 6: you do is tackle, you might get in intercept.
Speaker 1: What is a Russia?
Speaker 6: A Russia is the person who rushes the quarterback, so
Speaker 6: that the Russia plays in defense and they're responsible for
Speaker 6: trying to shut the quarterback down, tackle him and get
Speaker 6: a stop on the on the opposition.
Speaker 2: So they have like inside receiver. You think, okay, that's
Speaker 2: the receiver, then there's the wide receiver. Yes, there's just
Speaker 2: so much money in that sport. When you look at
Speaker 2: the signs of the team, it is incredible.
Speaker 1: It is so fascinating.
Speaker 6: And all the routes they run, all the plays they have,
Speaker 6: all the calls they make, you'll never get your head
Speaker 6: around it.
Speaker 2: Top Grady said it would take him at the start
Speaker 2: of a new season about three to four weeks to
Speaker 2: learn Bill Belichick's new plays, right, and it's.
Speaker 1: Pages and pages like math.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and he's a traditional defensive coach, so he knew
Speaker 6: what the defense were doing.
Speaker 1: So he was so good to have.
Speaker 6: Well, he started with the Cleveland Browns and then of
Speaker 6: course he went and played coach the Patriots to six
Speaker 6: Super Bowls.
Speaker 1: Like incredible. But look, there's so many storylines this year.
Speaker 6: You've got Aaron Rodgers, he's left the Jets, He's gone
Speaker 6: and joined the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Speaker 1: He's doing really well. They won.
Speaker 6: Of course, their game last weekend the Bills and the Ravens,
Speaker 6: an incredible game between those two. The Bills expected to
Speaker 6: win the Super Bowl this year with Josh Allen as
Speaker 6: their quarterback. So I'm all into it. I love it.
Speaker 6: And like I said, it's over the Christmas period, the
Speaker 6: Christmas break, you get to watch football.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 6: I know it's a football that most of us are
Speaker 6: too familiar with, but I suggest you get familiar with
Speaker 6: it because it's just a.
Speaker 2: Fascinating it's so traumatic as well. Yeah, friend of my
Speaker 2: friend of mine back in the UK, he's an American
Speaker 2: football commentator and reporter, and they get media access to everybody.
Speaker 1: Yeah oh yeah.
Speaker 2: The players don't lead to press conference until they've done
Speaker 2: the last introviece AFL whether they h oh that player
Speaker 2: is not doing it. They have to talk to everyone.
Speaker 6: There's real access and they never what I love about it,
Speaker 6: they never change the jerseys because there's such traditionalists as well. Yeah,
Speaker 6: so there's never ever sponsorship on the jerseys. And what
Speaker 6: they do they sell merchandise that every club sells the merchandise,
Speaker 6: but all the money that's made from that merch goes
Speaker 6: to the NFL as a whole doesn't go to the clubs,
Speaker 6: it goes to the NFL. So it's a multi, multi
Speaker 6: billion dollar industry and they just do it so well.
Speaker 3: I think.
Speaker 2: Well, my friends were saying that when Prince did the
Speaker 2: halftime show, so you know they have the big halftime show, right,
Speaker 2: it's massive. Whoever that artist is. They have to play
Speaker 2: the press conference week to just reporters right till or
Speaker 2: three hundred people, and he said it was Prince. And
Speaker 2: my friend Simon asked the first question, he said, what's
Speaker 2: it going to be like? And Princess goes like this
Speaker 2: and then did an hour of live music for them.
Speaker 6: Yes, what that is amazing, proper, that is rock and roll.
Speaker 6: And the super Bowl. Yeah, he did halftime super Bowl
Speaker 6: and it was up the Z. Yes, Princess, He's sang
Speaker 6: purple Rain and it rained.
Speaker 4: That's it.
Speaker 1: That's that's how cool. Prince once he could control the
Speaker 1: weather and.
Speaker 4: It just kept playing. It was amazing.
Speaker 6: But it's you can watch the NFL season twenty twenty five,
Speaker 6: twenty six on seven mates.
Speaker 2: Wow, I mean that was a great six too far,
Speaker 2: that's on that line. I see Montana playing again.
Speaker 1: It was a good year.
Speaker 2: It was let's go back to it seven mate and
Speaker 2: Ko sport right, gotcha.

Speaker 2: Christian at Christian O'Connell dot com dot au. Let's get
Speaker 2: into your emails now, yesterner on the show, I don't
Speaker 2: even know how we drifted into this, but we started
Speaker 2: talking about Alex and I both love cold toast, and
Speaker 2: I didn't realize I thought this is quite a common thing.
Speaker 1: It's not.
Speaker 2: People have very strong feelings about people that enjoy the
Speaker 2: privacy of their own kitchen ice cold toasts, and for me,
Speaker 2: that's toasted and then chucks in the freezer. Yeah, there
Speaker 2: is no god that is cold toast.
Speaker 1: There's a special moment for the cold hoast fraternity.
Speaker 2: Ye Funny have their voice yesterday and so a lot
Speaker 2: of there's a lot of say about it after the
Speaker 2: show yesterday, Christine.
Speaker 1: The butter must melt.
Speaker 4: Yes, thank you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but you can do you can just smear it on.
Speaker 4: No, but you want lovely melted butter that's oozed into
Speaker 4: the toast, not sitting on top of the greasy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right, Judy, cold toast is hospital food. Such
Speaker 2: a great sledge. When I'd be very happy to stay
Speaker 2: in that hospital, they're feeding me cold toast, Kathy, cold
Speaker 2: toast with heaps the butter is the best, made even
Speaker 2: better by adding a scrape of vegemite. Ray love cold
Speaker 2: toast thick with butter. Yeah, cold toast is no different
Speaker 2: to having very stale bread, Yes.
Speaker 4: Exactly, just have old moldy bread.
Speaker 2: No no, no, no, no, no no. It does something to
Speaker 2: the equality of the bread when you toast it, freeze
Speaker 2: it immediately, and then eat it. Christian, I used to
Speaker 2: be a hot toast, melty butter fan, but I've come
Speaker 2: to love colder toast with butter and jam. I'll leave
Speaker 2: mine in the toaster for a few minutes were taken out.
Speaker 2: Your method of putting it in the freezer seems extreme, Sonia.
Speaker 2: I let my toast cool off to spread my butter evenly.
Speaker 2: It's going to be evenly, Okay. Do you do you
Speaker 2: spread your butt or do you just put it just
Speaker 2: a swede down the middle? I like it.
Speaker 4: I don't want any dry bread but to touch every horner.
Speaker 2: Minutes and then, Rebecca, absolutely not to should be hot.
Speaker 2: If you aren't burning the roof of your mouth, are
Speaker 2: you even eating toast?
Speaker 1: Strong words? Now good?
Speaker 2: A voicemail here from a voice note from a dad
Speaker 2: we spoke to last week called Michael, he won all
Speaker 2: of our hearts. His wife had emailed me a couple
Speaker 2: of days earlier than last Friday. We were doing a
Speaker 2: Father's Day stuff what does your dad want? And his
Speaker 2: wife collect emailed me saying, his daughter lives in Sacramento
Speaker 2: and he hasn't been able to go and see you
Speaker 2: in a couple of years. Flights are expensive. She's had daughters,
Speaker 2: they're his granddaughters. He hasn't even met them. So could
Speaker 2: we surprise him and fly him out there? And we
Speaker 2: did last time. Do you remember he was at work.
Speaker 2: It's beautiful, and he was in his delivery van and
Speaker 2: we totally just blew his world apart. I felt so
Speaker 2: bad because I said, it's a really big thing in
Speaker 2: the middle of nothing to suddenly here.
Speaker 1: And you could hear his voice bright.
Speaker 2: And then he didn't quite want to go there because
Speaker 2: he's obviously where he's on the radio. And then he
Speaker 2: did what a lot of us do, especially men, where

Speaker 4: Christian songs for Friday show.
Speaker 2: Celestial celestial words to do with celestial bodies In the title,
Speaker 2: it's a correct wording.
Speaker 1: Celestial body like a planet or star.
Speaker 4: Or celestial bodies can be part of any celestial world.
Speaker 4: So a celestial body is like an object in space,
Speaker 4: like an asteroid. That's us, yes, comments asteroid star. I
Speaker 4: think constellations, oh my god, absolutely, constellations, black hole Orion's belt.
Speaker 3: Like.
Speaker 4: You can even go bigger, like the galaxy or the universe,
Speaker 4: which unnecessarily bodies, but they do fall under the category
Speaker 4: of celestia.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, so PASSI, what have you got for us.
Speaker 7: Well, I reckon this falls under that banner Xanadu, Now
Speaker 7: bear with me.
Speaker 1: Fictional part, isn't it?
Speaker 7: It's a mythical musicscending from the heavens, from Mount Olympus
Speaker 7: to Venice Beach.

Speaker 1: fifty two.
Speaker 2: That's one of the shortest ones that only Bill Hayley's
Speaker 2: Rock around the Clock is sub too as well.
Speaker 1: They used to in the sixties. They used to have
Speaker 1: very short songs.
Speaker 2: Because then they had more chance getting it played on
Speaker 2: the radio. That's why they're all like Beach Boys songs
Speaker 2: for like three minutes. Because radio stations wanted to be
Speaker 2: known for playing as many songs as possible in an hour,
Speaker 2: so artists were told make short songs.
Speaker 1: There you go, There you go, Ria, what are you
Speaker 1: going for?
Speaker 4: I've got a song from two thousand and one. At

Speaker 4: Ribbing film so that you might remember it was an
Speaker 4: animated mouse singing karaoke in a spaceship. It was the
Speaker 4: heart of technology.
Speaker 2: Two thousand, way before AI.
Speaker 1: This was everywhere. You're right, all right, So people's playing
Speaker 1: this the whole hour.
Speaker 2: Songs picked by you, Celestial things too celestial In the
Speaker 2: title I'm going nineteen eighty three Madonna Lucky Star. This
Speaker 2: is a banger, my favorite Madonna's song, and it's one
Speaker 2: of my favorite song intros. I can't explain why I
Speaker 2: love this intro so much, the keyboards, the sense, it's
Speaker 2: got a.
Speaker 1: Groove and a swing to it.
Speaker 2: Quite a mid teen po disco song for the eighties,
Speaker 2: but it is so good. This is prime time Madonna
Speaker 2: to me, Lucky Star.

Speaker 2: but sometimes I have to entertain the wild thoughts of
Speaker 2: our producer Caplin and sadly I can't there are I
Speaker 2: can't give any more nos this year. This one is
Speaker 2: simply called stuck in a tree.
Speaker 4: By Brad.
Speaker 1: That poor old ninety seventy on Werner is going. Is
Speaker 1: this progress? Take me?
Speaker 2: You won't have had this nonsense back in my day
Speaker 2: on three K Billy one five A playing the hits stuck.
Speaker 1: In a tree because sometimes in life you've got to
Speaker 1: join the doors.
Speaker 2: Are we seeing a trend emerged, because, to be honest,
Speaker 2: we have had two unconnected but connected by trees, different
Speaker 2: stories this week about things being stuck in trees.
Speaker 1: That's true, right started with Sharpie.
Speaker 2: And when I was trying to yesterday, I was wasting
Speaker 2: show time by demanding that people tell.
Speaker 1: Me what bird this is?
Speaker 4: Ha ha.
Speaker 1: We found out it was the pied currawon. That's it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, And Sharpie said Christian, I don't know what the
Speaker 2: bird is, but where there used to be one outside
Speaker 2: by mom and Dad's place, who I used to live
Speaker 2: at home. And I throw a shoe, my shoe with
Speaker 2: it at the bird, and the shoe is still in
Speaker 2: the tree thirty years of It's almost like some kind
Speaker 2: of monument. It's an art installation up there. Coralie kicked
Speaker 2: it off earlier this week when we're looking for your
Speaker 2: pet stories, Christian, my daughter had a pet goldfish in
Speaker 2: the outside pond, but it died. I threw it over
Speaker 2: the fence. It's not a thing you do. It's not
Speaker 2: a thing you do. You don't do that. We just
Speaker 2: make it a neighbors problems of scool over.
Speaker 1: The fence I have.
Speaker 2: And so the damn thing got stuck in the branches
Speaker 2: of a tree. Had to avoid the era till it
Speaker 2: finally went to God.
Speaker 1: I order a new one. Thankfully.
Speaker 2: Thankfully she never noticed us from colleague. So Caitlin, this
Speaker 2: is your baby, okay, And I hope we get calls.
Speaker 2: So what do you imagine that we're going to get,
Speaker 2: like people being stuck in trees or everything.
Speaker 8: I mean, I get people. We could get items like
Speaker 8: you know, the guy that had his shoes stuck in
Speaker 8: the tree and.
Speaker 2: Cat's funniest cats, that's do you know what I do?
Speaker 2: You remember a couple of years ago I saw some
Speaker 2: fieries trying to get a cat out of a tree,
Speaker 2: and I didn't know this actually happened, right, And this
Speaker 2: goes to me he goes, you'd be surprised.
Speaker 1: And then remember the next.
Speaker 2: Day I was talking about this and what have you
Speaker 2: called triple zero for for a non emergency? And this
Speaker 2: woman said that she called I always remember this called.
Speaker 2: She said, she called them count up a tree and
Speaker 2: the truck turns up. Two fire fieries go up there
Speaker 2: and they get stuck. She then has to call triples
Speaker 2: there again. Can you send out some more fieries to
Speaker 2: the cat had come down by now the cat just
Speaker 2: mosey down and go look at these clowns. Another truck
Speaker 2: turns up these fieries. See they're two college stuck up
Speaker 2: and just film it.
Speaker 1: What's a scene?
Speaker 4: You're not helping the rescue.
Speaker 2: So you're right, there's so many stories are emerging about
Speaker 2: stuck up a tree. Alex, Alex, you've got a story
Speaker 2: of any about stuck up a tree.
Speaker 1: Cat's children can get stuck up trees.
Speaker 6: I was at Forkner Park here in Melbourne a couple
Speaker 6: of years ago one of my twin daughter's six.
Speaker 1: Year old Eve. They were both up the tree.
Speaker 6: I had Max sort of just close to that and
Speaker 6: he's my four year old, and all of a sudden
Speaker 6: I hear this branch is breaking. Evie falls out of
Speaker 6: the tree, but manages to get caught by her undies
Speaker 6: on a branch.
Speaker 2: That's another phone the next week, saved by your undies.
Speaker 1: She's hanging there.
Speaker 6: It's a mid air and it gave me time to
Speaker 6: run to the tree and grab her just as the.
Speaker 1: That is ripped. A lucky catch by the undies, is it? Also?
Speaker 2: I've got to be honest dad of the year there
Speaker 2: who lets young kids up a tree?
Speaker 1: What could possibly go right?
Speaker 4: With kids?
Speaker 6: I'll climb anything, and I'm helpless against it. Yes, it's
Speaker 6: no good with very inconsequences. And that was wasn't too bad?
Speaker 6: Audrey has fallen out of it by your's neck.
Speaker 2: On Monday Show K thirteen fifty five twenty two Upper Tree, Patsy, Yeah.
Speaker 7: I've accidentally flung some dog poop in a bag up
Speaker 7: in the tree.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry. I don't believe that's an accident. I think
Speaker 2: you've done on purpose. Do you accidentally do that?
Speaker 7: I was spinning it around my head trying to be smart,
Speaker 7: and I.
Speaker 4: Thought that's smart.
Speaker 7: Yeah, well no, it's just stupid. And I thought i'd
Speaker 7: be able to get.
Speaker 4: In the beans.
Speaker 1: You always know you've got a real smart person.
Speaker 2: If you see them that's sewing a bag of dog
Speaker 2: turds around their heads, you go, my god, that's some
Speaker 2: of the very high on the cue. Must be the
Speaker 2: granddaughter of Einstein right there working out the theory of relative.
Speaker 7: Ivyshot the bean terribly and it ended up in the

Speaker 3: I was I gonna.
Speaker 4: I just had to leave it. What was that?
Speaker 1: No?

Speaker 2: we had to wait for hours. Until he felt like
Speaker 2: unwrapping himself and coming back in the house.
