0:00:01.160 --> 0:00:06.840
<v Speaker 1>Got anything good. Hey, this is the Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

0:00:10.720 --> 0:00:14.280
<v Speaker 2>So this Sunday, big moment for our family. Our last

0:00:14.320 --> 0:00:17.160
<v Speaker 2>daughter leaves home. So Lowis who's eighteen, she's off to university.

0:00:17.160 --> 0:00:20.520
<v Speaker 2>So we're moving around this Sunday. And yesterday she was

0:00:20.520 --> 0:00:23.280
<v Speaker 2>packing a suitcase. That bit was fine. Then I went

0:00:23.320 --> 0:00:27.080
<v Speaker 2>to her bedroom. All the posters have come down from

0:00:27.080 --> 0:00:28.600
<v Speaker 2>her bedroom.

0:00:28.720 --> 0:00:30.520
<v Speaker 3>It was it was just a room, Jack, It's not

0:00:30.600 --> 0:00:30.960
<v Speaker 3>her room.

0:00:30.960 --> 0:00:34.160
<v Speaker 2>Because actually, when you're a teenager, the way you show

0:00:34.240 --> 0:00:36.480
<v Speaker 2>mom and dad in the world who you are right now,

0:00:36.720 --> 0:00:38.840
<v Speaker 2>who you dream of being, or what you're passionate about,

0:00:39.120 --> 0:00:42.040
<v Speaker 2>are the posters on the wall. It's all the passions everything.

0:00:42.159 --> 0:00:45.280
<v Speaker 2>It's the actors and actresses she likes, it's the musicians,

0:00:45.320 --> 0:00:48.000
<v Speaker 2>it's the images. It was literally like going into a

0:00:48.080 --> 0:00:50.640
<v Speaker 2>museum of her. Whenever went to a bedroom and certain

0:00:50.680 --> 0:00:53.120
<v Speaker 2>posters would come down and I'd never say, oh, you're

0:00:53.120 --> 0:00:55.200
<v Speaker 2>not that anymore, and something new would come up and

0:00:55.240 --> 0:00:58.920
<v Speaker 2>I'd know more about where she was in her and

0:00:59.360 --> 0:01:01.920
<v Speaker 2>what she was assionate about, buy what was on the

0:01:01.960 --> 0:01:04.000
<v Speaker 2>contents of our bedroom. Or It's like literally is like

0:01:04.000 --> 0:01:05.920
<v Speaker 2>a dank old gave in there with the clothes on

0:01:05.920 --> 0:01:07.920
<v Speaker 2>the floor, but the posters have all been taken down

0:01:07.959 --> 0:01:10.319
<v Speaker 2>because they've got to go to where she's going to be.

0:01:10.680 --> 0:01:13.240
<v Speaker 3>It's like her essence has been packed away.

0:01:13.319 --> 0:01:15.160
<v Speaker 2>And it was a gut punch and I went in

0:01:15.200 --> 0:01:18.440
<v Speaker 2>there was like the posters are down, and she was like, yeah, they've.

0:01:18.240 --> 0:01:20.000
<v Speaker 3>All got to come down. I was like, kind of

0:01:20.120 --> 0:01:20.800
<v Speaker 3>leave one up?

0:01:21.040 --> 0:01:22.800
<v Speaker 2>Should you go? So we were Then I was like going,

0:01:22.840 --> 0:01:24.520
<v Speaker 2>not that, I don't care about that one. Can I

0:01:24.560 --> 0:01:25.240
<v Speaker 2>have this one?

0:01:25.480 --> 0:01:27.440
<v Speaker 3>So I kept one of myself. But you would have

0:01:27.440 --> 0:01:27.800
<v Speaker 3>been through that.

0:01:27.800 --> 0:01:30.760
<v Speaker 2>We've all been at that, those ages where those posters

0:01:30.800 --> 0:01:33.160
<v Speaker 2>were everything. And then the sad thing is, at some

0:01:33.319 --> 0:01:36.360
<v Speaker 2>point you stop us have grown up, you become too

0:01:36.400 --> 0:01:39.680
<v Speaker 2>boring for posters. You don't putting up posters anymore. Why

0:01:39.720 --> 0:01:41.280
<v Speaker 2>aren't there posters for grown ups?

0:01:41.400 --> 0:01:45.479
<v Speaker 1>I used to go to the Voyager video store in

0:01:45.520 --> 0:01:48.760
<v Speaker 1>our neighborhood that sold you know those poster racks the

0:01:48.880 --> 0:01:51.440
<v Speaker 1>house where the big botanic frame, botanic frame and you

0:01:51.440 --> 0:01:53.520
<v Speaker 1>flip through them, and I used to love and looking

0:01:53.520 --> 0:01:54.160
<v Speaker 1>through the bend.

0:01:54.080 --> 0:01:56.640
<v Speaker 2>And then you look the banned ones. Then it was

0:01:56.720 --> 0:01:59.880
<v Speaker 2>scantily clad women. There was the one with the ten

0:02:00.120 --> 0:02:03.640
<v Speaker 2>play with scratching the backside. There were some fet looking

0:02:03.720 --> 0:02:06.440
<v Speaker 2>dudes in dungarees who did not work in any kind of.

0:02:06.360 --> 0:02:08.880
<v Speaker 3>Garage or car auto shop that I've ever seen.

0:02:09.000 --> 0:02:12.080
<v Speaker 1>And then you get to the comedy ones, like like

0:02:12.200 --> 0:02:13.640
<v Speaker 1>beer goggles type thing.

0:02:13.919 --> 0:02:17.440
<v Speaker 2>That's right, Dad's man cave, and like monkeys scratching their

0:02:17.480 --> 0:02:19.760
<v Speaker 2>heads stuff like that. You're right, those were the flow

0:02:19.800 --> 0:02:23.840
<v Speaker 2>of those you through those big metallic screens.

0:02:23.200 --> 0:02:25.919

<v Speaker 3>Even though I didn't go to that bigure the poster,
