Come on in, Jackie boy, Hey guys, 0:00:28.600 --> 0:00:31.440 coome onring. Pats, Good morning, how's everything with you? The 0:00:31.440 --> 0:00:32.080 sweet Patsy. 0:00:32.479 --> 0:00:36.000 It's busy, busy at the cold front at home because 0:00:36.200 --> 0:00:38.000 we're preparing Audrey for camp. 0:00:38.680 --> 0:00:41.519 And the last time I was last year's camp, she 0:00:41.680 --> 0:00:42.960 was around the corner of the field. 0:00:43.400 --> 0:00:46.320 That's right, you waved to her from the backyard. 0:00:46.760 --> 0:00:48.600 No, we went out to stake it out. 0:00:48.840 --> 0:00:52.120 Then three corners around that. Now where's she going? Now? 0:00:52.520 --> 0:00:56.000 They're off down to the coast and she's very excited. 0:00:56.040 --> 0:00:59.760 And this is like a proper her first proper camp, 0:00:59.800 --> 0:01:01.120 which means they're intent. 0:01:01.240 --> 0:01:03.400 So she's not already seen anything sort of outside one 0:01:04.200 --> 0:01:05.880 where you've raised her in that compound. 0:01:06.319 --> 0:01:10.440 Stop it always tended to the house and some no 0:01:10.520 --> 0:01:11.760 actually physically says. 0:01:13.520 --> 0:01:18.319 No, they're proper proper camping out under the under the stars, 0:01:18.440 --> 0:01:20.120 in the open and in a tent. 0:01:20.280 --> 0:01:22.479 So I mean when you say proper campound I present. 0:01:22.640 --> 0:01:25.680 I've always thought that that is camping. The improper one. 0:01:25.880 --> 0:01:28.200 I know what the kitchen table, you're. 0:01:28.000 --> 0:01:31.000 In the tent, but you're in race out sorts safe. 0:01:31.120 --> 0:01:32.160 You can use their bathroom. 0:01:32.240 --> 0:01:36.240 There's no cushy dorms with bunk beds or catering. They 0:01:36.319 --> 0:01:38.959 are doing it all themselves. So I think it'll be 0:01:39.000 --> 0:01:41.919 a little bit of a learning curve for city mouse, 0:01:42.560 --> 0:01:44.479 so we you don't worry. 0:01:44.560 --> 0:01:46.520 But it's not like you live in the CBD above 0:01:46.560 --> 0:01:51.560 the MCG city called Jack and I city sick as 0:01:51.560 --> 0:01:53.960 the other day you see the pair you live out 0:01:53.960 --> 0:01:58.760 on some ranch out west you Jackman in that movie Australia. 0:01:59.520 --> 0:02:01.800 She's never been camping ever before. 0:02:02.160 --> 0:02:05.240 Had been an amazing experience, is she excites. 0:02:05.240 --> 0:02:08.079 Nervous, so excited, so her at her best mate. Well, 0:02:08.560 --> 0:02:10.480 you know they pair off, but you've got to send 0:02:10.520 --> 0:02:13.120 them like you know, Christian with the girls, umpty million 0:02:13.360 --> 0:02:15.280 jocks and socks and two pair. 0:02:15.160 --> 0:02:17.960 Of sneakers, two of everything, isn't it? 0:02:18.120 --> 0:02:18.240 Oh? 0:02:18.320 --> 0:02:20.360 This is like three and four of everything. So I 0:02:20.400 --> 0:02:21.880 had to look at the list. You get a list 0:02:22.639 --> 0:02:25.800 and it's like, oh BlimE me, I need to get organized. 0:02:26.160 --> 0:02:28.480 And then they can't, of course, take a suitcase that 0:02:28.520 --> 0:02:29.920 they normally take because. 0:02:32.160 --> 0:02:33.240 Louis case. 0:02:37.560 --> 0:02:39.639 And you know, I said to her, honey, you need 0:02:39.680 --> 0:02:41.560 to take like there's food this time, you need to 0:02:41.600 --> 0:02:44.000 take a garbage bag. You need to take all this stuff. 0:02:44.440 --> 0:02:47.080 But yeah, she's she's very excited. So I don't know, 0:02:48.440 --> 0:02:51.160 it's only two nights we're talking about. 0:02:51.160 --> 0:02:53.040 It was like, she's going for a fortnight. 0:02:53.360 --> 0:02:55.280 It will feel like a fortnight to me. 0:02:55.520 --> 0:02:56.720 Sure we can break. 0:02:57.160 --> 0:02:59.079 We won't know what to do with ourselves. 0:02:59.320 --> 0:03:05.000 What advice she's staying on those crystal Brooks she's Tom's 0:03:05.000 --> 0:03:07.200 winner would be calling out, is that you ordering? 0:03:08.160 --> 0:03:10.240 What advice did you and Chris give her? Because you're 0:03:10.240 --> 0:03:12.680 both from the country, so surely you've been camping before. 0:03:12.960 --> 0:03:16.080 Oh well, she's she's scared of petrified of there being 0:03:16.280 --> 0:03:20.519 spiders and snakes, and we're like, no, they're more scared 0:03:20.560 --> 0:03:23.960 of you than you are of them. It'll be fine. 0:03:24.200 --> 0:03:28.119 We're just like, you know, watering it down because she's 0:03:28.680 --> 0:03:32.120 not she'll be a nightmare. Did you enjoy camp I 0:03:32.160 --> 0:03:34.760 loved camp and ironically, she's going to the same place 0:03:34.840 --> 0:03:35.760 I went to a year eight. 0:03:35.920 --> 0:03:36.640 You're kidding. 0:03:36.760 --> 0:03:40.320 No, it's brilliant. It's so so good. It's like backs 0:03:40.360 --> 0:03:40.880 onto the beach. 0:03:41.200 --> 0:03:41.880 So when does she go? 0:03:42.360 --> 0:03:44.080 She goes not this week but the following. 0:03:44.840 --> 0:03:49.200 You're so advised. I would not go anywhere. That lessen 0:03:49.320 --> 0:03:51.880 is about the day off and then driving around like 0:03:51.920 --> 0:03:56.119 chemists warehouse getting the medical supply. Absolute panic. We don't 0:03:56.120 --> 0:03:59.160 know what I presuming she was going this weekend. Oh no, 0:03:59.200 --> 0:04:01.480 not for need to look at that for another two weeks. 0:04:02.160 --> 0:04:05.040 Look, Christian O'Connell show podcast. 0:04:05.680 --> 0:04:08.360 Do people go camping in the ucas that they do? 0:04:08.440 --> 0:04:12.720 It's just really miserable. You imagine, the UK isn't a 0:04:12.760 --> 0:04:15.640 warm climate, and even when it is the summer, people 0:04:15.680 --> 0:04:17.719 do go camping. And we were going to supposed to 0:04:17.720 --> 0:04:21.040 go camping for five days and it was just horrific. 0:04:21.080 --> 0:04:23.560 The first night was cold, it was work. Remember we 0:04:23.640 --> 0:04:25.400 woke the kids up at half five and just packed 0:04:25.400 --> 0:04:28.120 the tent up and went in a hotel. That is 0:04:28.160 --> 0:04:29.520 the end of my camping life. 0:04:29.600 --> 0:04:32.279 Camping can be really fun, but there's nothing more miserable 0:04:32.279 --> 0:04:35.440 than a wet camping. 0:04:34.240 --> 0:04:35.960 To do on the ground, and I was like, this 0:04:36.040 --> 0:04:39.160 is seeping into my kidneys. This is a horrible experience. 0:04:39.360 --> 0:04:41.200 All right, let's go through some of your emails. We 0:04:41.279 --> 0:04:50.920 call Late Laparty Late. You can email the show. But 0:04:51.080 --> 0:04:53.159 anything you ever hear us talking about with you catching 0:04:53.200 --> 0:04:57.080 up on old shows on the Iohea app, Christians getting 0:04:57.160 --> 0:05:01.039 straight Grouse the name of your music, yes, seven days 0:05:01.080 --> 0:05:04.960 Ago comes from famous grouse the Irish whisky. Do you 0:05:05.000 --> 0:05:07.880 know what? There are about eight different ways of understanding 0:05:07.920 --> 0:05:10.360 where grouse come from. What is your understanding of what 0:05:10.400 --> 0:05:12.160 grouse means? I thought it was an Aussie word. 0:05:12.279 --> 0:05:16.080 Yes, I had no idea the where the origin of 0:05:16.120 --> 0:05:18.440 it is. But somebody also told me this week that 0:05:18.520 --> 0:05:20.599 it's a Victorian only word, the. 0:05:20.920 --> 0:05:24.080 Text saying it doesn't exist in Essay or anywhere else 0:05:24.200 --> 0:05:26.440 in Australia. It's a very Victorian. 0:05:26.680 --> 0:05:30.239 I found that hard to believe. But maybe people from Essay, 0:05:30.240 --> 0:05:32.480 a queenslande on New South Wales can verify that they 0:05:32.480 --> 0:05:34.359 didn't use it in the eddies. That would be nice. 0:05:35.320 --> 0:05:38.359 John here said, it's from the famous grouse the Irish whiskey. 0:05:38.400 --> 0:05:40.599 Back in the day, if you were having a famous grouse, 0:05:40.640 --> 0:05:42.720 it meant it was from the top shelf, as in 0:05:42.800 --> 0:05:46.200 the best, and it became Ossie slaying grouse, meaning the best. 0:05:47.000 --> 0:05:49.920 That's from John, Thank you very much, Christian. When I 0:05:50.000 --> 0:05:52.160 was ten, we were on a summer holiday down by 0:05:52.200 --> 0:05:54.760 the beach, so about six kids hanging around together. We 0:05:54.839 --> 0:05:57.719 came across a huge bubble shaped spider high up between 0:05:57.760 --> 0:06:00.000 some trees on a giant web. But we decided to 0:06:00.279 --> 0:06:02.279 rocks at it. This is what you do when you're ten. 0:06:02.440 --> 0:06:05.080 You don't understand something, you just throw rocks at it. 0:06:05.080 --> 0:06:10.200 It's like pats and planes, the sun, moon, gravity. Just 0:06:10.279 --> 0:06:14.320 throw TV, throw rocks to see if we could hit it, 0:06:14.480 --> 0:06:17.960 until someone did, and then thousands of tiny spiders poured 0:06:17.960 --> 0:06:21.320 out from the broken back of a giant spider. Do 0:06:21.400 --> 0:06:23.760 spiders have hundreds of other spiders in them? 0:06:24.240 --> 0:06:26.359 I thought they mummy spiders? 0:06:26.400 --> 0:06:30.479 Do you? That's from Daniel Christian. I went to London 0:06:30.560 --> 0:06:33.640 last week and noticed that every other person there appeared 0:06:33.640 --> 0:06:36.640 to be an Australian tourist. Maybe this is why RIO 0:06:37.040 --> 0:06:39.839 thought there were so many ugly people over there. Lots 0:06:39.920 --> 0:06:43.400 of love, Simon, Thank you Simon. I'd forgotten about that 0:06:43.760 --> 0:06:45.679 slur from a couple of weeks ago on the show. 0:06:46.360 --> 0:06:48.560 And this is from Simon who listens to the show 0:06:48.640 --> 0:06:51.760 in Tasmania. Christians listened to your show last night and 0:06:51.760 --> 0:06:54.839 can totally relate to your pantsy saw about the roller skates. Yeah, 0:06:54.839 --> 0:06:56.360 we're going to take some more stories on this. We're 0:06:56.360 --> 0:06:58.480 talking yesterday about what were you not allowed to have 0:06:58.600 --> 0:07:00.440 as a kid, and perhaps you want to have the 0:07:00.480 --> 0:07:01.520 decent proper roaders. 0:07:01.600 --> 0:07:04.599 Proper boot ones. I had this strap on top in the. 0:07:04.600 --> 0:07:07.440 Early eighties, Christian, I, like Patsy, had the povo variety 0:07:07.440 --> 0:07:10.600 of roader skates that unfortunately expanded as I grew They 0:07:10.600 --> 0:07:13.840 almost equated to wearing legs splints that were rickety. I 0:07:13.880 --> 0:07:16.320 beg for my mum for the white lace up boots 0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:18.800 with the red wheels, and finally my begging was answered. 0:07:19.000 --> 0:07:21.520 I took my brand new skates to local rink, skated 0:07:21.560 --> 0:07:23.880 my way around like Tauvelanden in the Olympics of tunes 0:07:23.920 --> 0:07:26.560 of Kiss on the jubebox. Fast forward thirty years, I 0:07:26.560 --> 0:07:28.840 happened to buy another pair for my fortieth I put 0:07:28.920 --> 0:07:31.000 them on, went skating, got a blister and they just 0:07:31.000 --> 0:07:33.320 sit in a cupboard and pristine condition. I might sell 0:07:33.360 --> 0:07:36.040 them to Patsy soon.

Grow to that 0:08:38.320 --> 0:08:39.319 have a little dwarf one. 0:08:39.320 --> 0:08:41.160 They can get up to two point five meters, but 0:08:43.120 --> 0:08:44.439 because I'm the. 0:08:44.280 --> 0:08:48.040 Proud chie of the show. Growing you on cum quat tree. 0:08:48.200 --> 0:08:50.640 Three meters tree on a balcony is a big tree. 0:08:50.640 --> 0:08:53.040 It will be too big, yes, but that is. 0:08:52.920 --> 0:08:55.240 Falling onto someone down in Richmond, isn't it in a 0:08:55.240 --> 0:08:57.240 couple of years time. So you've got the hose. 0:08:57.280 --> 0:08:59.360 I got the hose, and I've started noticing that I'm 0:08:59.400 --> 0:09:02.760 playing a lot with the nozzle and I'm finding myself. 0:09:02.480 --> 0:09:04.199 In the shower heads because I think they've got about 0:09:04.240 --> 0:09:06.240 six you twist it round, yeah, yeah, yeah. 0:09:06.120 --> 0:09:08.080 And so I've got to decide what sort of you know, 0:09:08.320 --> 0:09:11.840 nozzle guy, am I? What's my nozzle setting. I've settled 0:09:11.880 --> 0:09:15.719 on the soaka, which is like the big thick gloss. 0:09:17.280 --> 0:09:20.559 That's terrible, like it's like a waterfall. 0:09:22.360 --> 0:09:28.520 Yes, exactly, it's thick. It's whenever I toggles broken. I 0:09:28.559 --> 0:09:32.280 actually think who uses this? This is something between mist 0:09:32.320 --> 0:09:34.640 and jets. 0:09:34.840 --> 0:09:36.800 Just spets on whatever you need to water because it 0:09:36.840 --> 0:09:38.880 just goes like it only goes like two inches in 0:09:38.880 --> 0:09:39.800 front of it. 0:09:39.520 --> 0:09:42.160 It's equivalent to like if you take a mouthful water 0:09:42.240 --> 0:09:43.840 and it's too much and you let it just dribble 0:09:43.840 --> 0:09:44.400 out of your mouth. 0:09:44.440 --> 0:09:46.880 That's what you do when they take a swing of 0:09:46.960 --> 0:09:49.240 that water and they go, that's that setting. 0:09:49.320 --> 0:09:51.120 You can control it and it sticks. I feel like 0:09:51.400 --> 0:09:53.720 you're not going to get any good that way. 0:09:54.080 --> 0:09:55.360 What do you use fixed flow? 0:09:55.960 --> 0:09:56.520 Which one is that? 0:09:56.559 --> 0:09:59.800 I'd say that's your your solid sort of steady flow. 0:10:00.880 --> 0:10:04.440 Not jet. That's not jet, okay, Jet is you're just 0:10:04.440 --> 0:10:06.319 demolished jet. 0:10:07.800 --> 0:10:10.839 I like to blast everything in my part getting giant 0:10:11.200 --> 0:10:13.800 because it's quicker. It's like, just cut to the chase. 0:10:15.080 --> 0:10:17.160 Actually brings up the garden bed. 0:10:19.600 --> 0:10:22.280 Up against the wall and on your garden park, get 0:10:22.280 --> 0:10:22.679 it done. 0:10:23.280 --> 0:10:26.480 Look out for everybody. Use shower setting. Shower is the 0:10:26.480 --> 0:10:29.800 perfect amount of speed. It's it's in between mist and jet. 0:10:29.960 --> 0:10:35.200 I thought the rest would not too much ground with 0:10:35.240 --> 0:10:35.720 the shower. 0:10:36.600 --> 0:10:39.120 Yours is like a broken sprinkler head. And I think, 0:10:39.160 --> 0:10:42.360 actually that is it's hard to get a single focus 0:10:42.360 --> 0:10:45.360 and direction fixed flow. To bring it back to flix flow, 0:10:46.000 --> 0:10:48.000 you know where you are. It's like a laser at 0:10:48.000 --> 0:10:51.080 the garden. I always feel like the garden goes, this 0:10:51.120 --> 0:10:52.440 guy knows what we need. 0:10:52.559 --> 0:10:57.439 It's predictable and it's boring, but the garden's excited. 0:11:00.160 --> 0:11:01.800 That you're doing that. 0:11:02.600 --> 0:11:06.240 The garden wants consistency. Essentially, what it wants is something 0:11:06.240 --> 0:11:08.120 that mimics rain closely and. 0:11:08.040 --> 0:11:08.560 That's why. 0:11:11.400 --> 0:11:11.800 Hard and. 0:11:14.400 --> 0:11:15.560 That's firing out. 0:11:16.320 --> 0:11:17.080 Rain like that. 0:11:19.520 --> 0:11:23.000 This is the Christian O'Connell show podcast. 0:11:23.320 --> 0:11:25.680 Christian, I'm also listened to you in Canberra. Lived in 0:11:25.720 --> 0:11:28.600 Canberra for forty years. The use of the word grouse 0:11:28.800 --> 0:11:32.280 is not block capitals here for my correspondent. Not a 0:11:32.360 --> 0:11:35.280 common thing here, never was, never will be except by 0:11:35.360 --> 0:11:37.959 strange impoints from south of the border. 0:11:39.840 --> 0:11:42.680 Topic differently from another Camberan resident. 0:11:42.760 --> 0:11:46.440 Yes, canbra is rowing about grouse at the moment. Christian, 0:11:46.480 --> 0:11:49.040 I'm with Jack when it comes to the garden, I 0:11:49.160 --> 0:11:51.360 go for I think it sounds like what Jack's talking about, 0:11:51.480 --> 0:11:55.880 basically like a shower head setting into the garden, gentle rain. 0:11:57.240 --> 0:12:01.400 Christian com quints make excellent marmalade. I frequently used the 0:12:01.440 --> 0:12:05.360 fruits from our trees for that's from Peter Krishnaman watching 0:12:06.640 --> 0:12:09.559 Costa on Gardening Australia, and he said that the garden's 0:12:10.120 --> 0:12:14.319 favorite host setting is the shower setting, and it's the gentlest, 0:12:14.880 --> 0:12:17.079 gentlest stream for the plants and the soil. 0:12:17.400 --> 0:12:19.880 It mimics the rain. That's what they're used. 0:12:19.720 --> 0:12:23.240 To whatever Costa says, that ends the topic for me. 0:12:27.679 --> 0:12:30.360 Yesterday then we were talking about, well you're never allowed 0:12:30.400 --> 0:12:31.760 as a kid. You can give us a call now 0:12:31.880 --> 0:12:35.240 nine four one four one four three. For Brendan, it 0:12:35.280 --> 0:12:38.840 was Levi's jeans. My mom always brought me Wranglers because 0:12:38.840 --> 0:12:41.800 they were cheaper. I was also raised in a wrangler 0:12:41.840 --> 0:12:44.200 and the even worse than that was the Lee jeans 0:12:44.240 --> 0:12:50.199 as well, horrible geese. There was something about that zip 0:12:50.200 --> 0:12:53.480 as well where it was dangerous. It was a dice 0:12:53.960 --> 0:12:56.600 every single time you using that horrible zip on them 0:12:56.640 --> 0:12:57.160 as well. 0:12:57.000 --> 0:12:59.360 And it almost sounded like levires. That was what was 0:12:59.559 --> 0:13:00.520 torture is about. 0:13:00.280 --> 0:13:01.920 We've got your pair leave. 0:13:04.400 --> 0:13:07.320 We had a factory outlet in our town. So that 0:13:07.559 --> 0:13:09.880 was all anyone wore was a Lee jean. 0:13:10.080 --> 0:13:14.440 Yes, all my friends, because this is like junior fomo, 0:13:14.559 --> 0:13:16.240 isn't it. When you were a kid, it was all 0:13:16.280 --> 0:13:19.200 about you just wanted to have whateverybody else. Now, Christian 0:13:19.240 --> 0:13:22.640 and my friends wore Levi's. I only ever buy Levi's 0:13:22.679 --> 0:13:25.480 Now are Brendan who can write all those wrongs? Sean Christian. 0:13:25.520 --> 0:13:30.320 I was never allowed anything sticky, cordial, soft drinks, that's 0:13:30.360 --> 0:13:35.960 everything nice as a kid, Cordial soft drinks, lollies, gum, 0:13:36.040 --> 0:13:39.080 even those rubberies, stretchy toys that you flung and would 0:13:39.080 --> 0:13:41.760 stick to the wall, not allowed those Christian. This is 0:13:41.800 --> 0:13:45.439 an odd one from Dell full cream milk. Mum used 0:13:45.480 --> 0:13:49.040 to use low fat powdered meat milk. Oh god, we 0:13:49.160 --> 0:13:54.479 called it cardboard milk. Alexandra was not on our ballet lessons. 0:13:55.480 --> 0:14:00.280 It's just like the plotline for the movie Footloose Andy 0:14:00.360 --> 0:14:04.080 or something, Nicole. I always wanted the game Operation, so 0:14:04.240 --> 0:14:06.280 love the Game Operation when my dad said no, saying 0:14:06.320 --> 0:14:11.120 I would lose all the pieces. So now my husband 0:14:11.120 --> 0:14:13.800 bought it last year for me for Christmas. Oh that's 0:14:13.800 --> 0:14:14.360 a lovely thing. 0:14:15.240 --> 0:14:18.599 Br you're listening to the Christian o'carl's show podcast. 0:14:18.760 --> 0:14:23.480 Were you not allowed as a kid, Sammy? Good morning Sammy. 0:14:23.480 --> 0:14:26.920 I wasn't allowed to build plastic kits because my mummy 0:14:26.920 --> 0:14:30.200 said they would glue my hands together. Poor little Sammy's 0:14:30.280 --> 0:14:37.400 fingers all glued together for life. For Rachel, what I 0:14:37.760 --> 0:14:42.120 was allowed to have a kid? Chicken nuggets. Jamie Oliver 0:14:42.320 --> 0:14:45.320 was on TV over here Christian and convinced my mum 0:14:45.640 --> 0:14:50.160 wait personally, he said, hey, listen, Mamma Donovan, do not 0:14:50.520 --> 0:14:56.320 give your kid. Rachel knows I've hated Jamie Oliver. 0:14:57.640 --> 0:15:02.440 I actually remembered that episode of the He essentially said 0:15:02.440 --> 0:15:04.280 what they do with the chicken nuggets is take all 0:15:04.280 --> 0:15:07.440 the leftover parts of the chicken, blended up and make 0:15:07.520 --> 0:15:08.440 it into a chicken nugget. 0:15:08.720 --> 0:15:12.000 It was massive, Aldo sort of big global campaign with that.
