1
00:00:00,480 --> 00:00:03,400
Speaker 1: Christ Do You O'Connell show podcast some of you might

2
00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:04,880
Speaker 1: have heard of the last couple of months and at

3
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:07,280
Speaker 1: various points last year when we were back in last

4
00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:09,520
Speaker 1: Year and Lockdown that I was writing a book. The

5
00:00:09,520 --> 00:00:13,000
Speaker 1: book is now actually available today for pre order. You

6
00:00:13,039 --> 00:00:15,320
Speaker 1: can see what the front cover looks like. The title

7
00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:17,959
Speaker 1: is no One listens to your Dad's show, which in

8
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,759
Speaker 1: the early dark days of this show, when actually technically

9
00:00:21,160 --> 00:00:24,360
Speaker 1: no one did listen to my daughter's dad show, my show,

10
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:27,200
Speaker 1: this show. It was something like a thirteen year old

11
00:00:27,200 --> 00:00:29,640
Speaker 1: girl said to one of my daughters in the playground

12
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:30,960
Speaker 1: the first couple of months of being here, like a

13
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:33,120
Speaker 1: thirty year old girl, does no one listens to your

14
00:00:33,200 --> 00:00:35,600
Speaker 1: dad's radio show? Huge burn? Yeah? And I thought the

15
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:37,400
Speaker 1: time it was actually Eddie McGuire, just as a school

16
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:41,159
Speaker 1: girl too much Eddie, too much the Mine Games. So

17
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:43,239
Speaker 1: that's the title of the book. It is out now

18
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:45,840
Speaker 1: for pre order. The book is about why I moved

19
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:48,720
Speaker 1: here and the first two years, which you know, even

20
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:50,640
Speaker 1: if you've never moved to the other side of the world.

21
00:00:50,640 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 1: But we had no idea when we're moving to a study

22
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 1: what it would be like. And a couple of weeks ago.

23
00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:59,320
Speaker 1: I had dinner with Duncan Is, the man who hired me,

24
00:00:59,760 --> 00:01:02,240
Speaker 1: and I still say to him now, I still don't

25
00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,440
Speaker 1: get why you did it. You know, it's such a

26
00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:06,479
Speaker 1: crazy thing to do to bring an English guy out here,

27
00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:09,839
Speaker 1: and I also understand why. And you'll see a lot

28
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:12,959
Speaker 1: of the most vicious hate mail that was on Facebook

29
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:14,560
Speaker 1: and on the book. Right, the kids were like they

30
00:01:14,560 --> 00:01:17,199
Speaker 1: had no idea. It was that bad. It's in the book.

31
00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 1: But then what's amazing is you. You went from being no,

32
00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:22,200
Speaker 1: don't like you. I remember on the second of the

33
00:01:22,240 --> 00:01:25,759
Speaker 1: show someone kindly emailed me telling me I was uninvited

34
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:27,440
Speaker 1: as well on her I got be honest in a

35
00:01:27,440 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 1: midle of a show. But the amazing thing is you

36
00:01:29,319 --> 00:01:32,199
Speaker 1: gave me a chance. And this show. Although the book

37
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:34,640
Speaker 1: is my story and the family story of moving to

38
00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:36,480
Speaker 1: the other side of the world and what that was

39
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,759
Speaker 1: like and going through everything, it's also your story. It's

40
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,760
Speaker 1: about this show because actually this show is made with

41
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:44,640
Speaker 1: you guys. You know, if you've been listening to Morning,

42
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:46,800
Speaker 1: you would have Jaked the beekeeper and the bee farmer.

43
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 1: We've had Ronnie in a strange, mysterious package, and then

44
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:53,880
Speaker 1: school runnings every single day we make the show with

45
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,600
Speaker 1: you guys, and the amazing thing is about why this

46
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,440
Speaker 1: show is. And the book comes out in June. This

47
00:01:59,480 --> 00:02:01,520
Speaker 1: show is through years old. If it wasn't for you

48
00:02:01,600 --> 00:02:04,120
Speaker 1: guys actually giving me a go and support the show,

49
00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 1: I'd have been sacks by now. I'll be back in

50
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:10,280
Speaker 1: Plague Island with Boris super leagues to deal with for

51
00:02:10,320 --> 00:02:13,040
Speaker 1: your old job back, begging for my old job back.

52
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,000
Speaker 1: And once you leave, you don't get your old radio

53
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:18,400
Speaker 1: shows back. So it's strange that my story here and

54
00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:20,600
Speaker 1: even this show carrying on with me, Jack and Patsy,

55
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:23,640
Speaker 1: it was totally reliant on the kindness of strangers, and

56
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,040
Speaker 1: so it is your story as well. Lots of you

57
00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,000
