Speaker 1: Melbourne.

00:00:01,520 --> 00:00:05,400
Speaker 2: Welcome to the Christian No Common Show podcast.

3
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:07,560
Speaker 3: And Melbourne is out of lockdown, which is amazing news.

4
00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:10,639
Speaker 3: The atmosphere in my house yesterday, amongst the teenagers been

5
00:00:10,680 --> 00:00:14,560
Speaker 3: trapped back indoors, slumped in front of laptops. Jim My

6
00:00:14,560 --> 00:00:16,480
Speaker 3: wife said yesterday I don't think they've done a lot

7
00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:17,279
Speaker 3: of their homework, and.

8
00:00:17,280 --> 00:00:20,479
Speaker 2: I went, I don't care. You know whos problem? That is?

9
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:21,680
Speaker 2: The schools?

10
00:00:23,040 --> 00:00:25,920
Speaker 3: Yeah, I wouldn't sat front of a laptop for those

11
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:28,920
Speaker 3: two weeks. I'd be disappointed they had still been knuckling

12
00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:30,400
Speaker 3: down doing that just.

13
00:00:30,280 --> 00:00:34,080
Speaker 2: To survive, just get through it. Okay, that's the school problem. Tomorrow, Well,

14
00:00:34,159 --> 00:00:34,640
Speaker 2: all your.

15
00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:36,640
Speaker 1: Work really becomes homework because you're at home twenty fourth

16
00:00:36,640 --> 00:00:38,920
Speaker 1: to seven. Why force them to do work outside of

17
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:39,560
Speaker 1: the school hours.

18
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:41,120
Speaker 2: So obviously we're two daughters at home.

19
00:00:41,200 --> 00:00:44,519
Speaker 3: Okay, they're in separate parts right doing their online schooling.

20
00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:48,360
Speaker 3: And I overhear bits of various teachers. Yesterday I overheard

21
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 3: a very enthusiastic but wildly naive math teacher and she

22
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,120
Speaker 3: was going, do you know what, I just want to say,

23
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:58,960
Speaker 3: it's great news and do you know what's been so hard? So?

24
00:00:59,120 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 2: Hey, how for you go.

25
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:02,440
Speaker 3: I'm really looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow. I'm

26
00:01:02,440 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 3: just looking forward also just seeing all the work you've

27
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 3: been doing ANYR homework for your mates, And I went, oh,

28
00:01:07,959 --> 00:01:10,039
Speaker 3: if that's your goal for tomorrow, you're going to be

29
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:14,039
Speaker 3: so grush spoiler alert. None of them would have done

30
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 3: not just any but certainly not maths work. Who's got

31
00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:20,960
Speaker 3: enough If you're a teenager or a kid, who's got

32
00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:24,119
Speaker 3: enough about them in a fifth, lockdown to knuckle down

33
00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 3: and do your maths homework.

34
00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:28,040
Speaker 1: When I was thirteen years old, my mum and dad

35
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:29,720
Speaker 1: pulled me out of school for a couple of months

36
00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 1: and we went on our first ever overseas holiday.

37
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 2: Your presson agreeing you went to Europe?

38
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, so they were. They essentially said before we started school,

39
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:38,080
Speaker 1: do you want to go to a nice school or

40
00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,039
Speaker 1: save that money and go on a European holiday? And

41
00:01:40,040 --> 00:01:44,000
Speaker 1: we chose European. Great choice, and they all my teachers

42
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 1: gave me like months worth of work. It's they fill

43
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:46,680
Speaker 1: out these.

44
00:01:46,480 --> 00:01:48,600
Speaker 2: Books like we do on the show.

45
00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:51,600
Speaker 1: Fill out these books so that you don't fall behind,

46
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 1: and then when you come back you can.

47
00:01:52,760 --> 00:01:55,440
Speaker 3: Go, you know, and you're going to be climbing in Budapest,

48
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 3: swatting in Paris, you know, sat underneath the Eiffel Tower.

49
00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 2: Jack, you're coming up. I can't. So I had on

54
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 1: Two pages filled out, and then.

55
00:02:14,200 --> 00:02:17,440
Speaker 3: Like a dangerous mind trying to absorb all this information.

56
00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:19,639
Speaker 1: And then I actually remember my mum trying to help

57
00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:21,359
Speaker 1: me go, like, well, maybe you can say to your

58
00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:24,040
Speaker 1: history teacher, for example, that you've visited some castle.

59
00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:26,360
Speaker 2: Teachers have never heard that one before.

60
00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:29,480
Speaker 3: Oh history, I watched a movie there was some historical

61
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:31,079
Speaker 3: stuff and I don't worry about it.

62
00:02:31,120 --> 00:02:33,680
Speaker 2: Then the chat post do you still have? I still

63
00:02:33,720 --> 00:02:34,079
Speaker 2: have that.

64
00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 3: Nightmare once a week when I'm in an exam in

65
00:02:36,440 --> 00:02:39,399
Speaker 3: school and I haven't done my homework all revision. When

66
00:02:39,440 --> 00:02:40,320
Speaker 3: were those dreams?

67
00:02:40,320 --> 00:02:44,120
Speaker 2: Stop? Stop? School has nothing to do with me. Now

68
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:46,120
Speaker 2: it's got nothing over me. On forty eight, when will
