00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:27,360
Speaker 3: Hello, Hello, Amanda, Hi Jones, this morning.

10
00:00:27,560 --> 00:00:30,440
Speaker 2: How good. How does it feel to be a national treasure?

11
00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 3: Oh? Look, I don't I don't know. I try not

12
00:00:35,400 --> 00:00:37,600
Speaker 3: to think too much in terms of that term.

13
00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:41,479
Speaker 1: Really, we'll try not to bury you treasure.

14
00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 3: If you don't mind. Thanks Amanda. That's gorgeous.

15
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:47,240
Speaker 1: So when did you realize that you could actually as

16
00:00:47,240 --> 00:00:49,040
Speaker 1: of mid next year, When did you think, you know,

17
00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:51,640
Speaker 1: logistically in terms of COVID, I think we can make

18
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 1: this happen. When did all this come together?

19
00:00:54,520 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 3: Well, it's been coming together slowly over probably the last

20
00:00:59,400 --> 00:01:05,160
Speaker 3: i'd say four months, fairly intensely, just you know, sort

21
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:08,560
Speaker 3: of putting it out there and all of the obviously

22
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:11,840
Speaker 3: the touring promoters in the country have been you know,

23
00:01:12,080 --> 00:01:15,440
Speaker 3: obviously in major talks with government and so forth to

24
00:01:15,520 --> 00:01:18,920
Speaker 3: really get the ball rolling, because it's been a long

25
00:01:18,959 --> 00:01:23,280
Speaker 3: time between drinks for people and music, so we've got

26
00:01:23,280 --> 00:01:26,720
Speaker 3: to get started at some points, and somebody's got to

27
00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:30,160
Speaker 3: crack the bottle open. So off we go, and you know,

28
00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:32,720
Speaker 3: we just put our faith in next year and hope,

29
00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 3: you know, keeping fingers crossed that we can keep all

30
00:01:35,880 --> 00:01:40,400
Speaker 3: this stuff under control and learn how to push the

31
00:01:41,440 --> 00:01:44,400
Speaker 3: pillars and the posts, which is obviously what we're all

32
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:47,840
Speaker 3: being forced to do. So we've got to think outside

33
00:01:47,840 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 3: the box and create create, obviously create new ones. So

34
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 3: that's what we're doing. We're just putting it out there

35
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,800
Speaker 3: and God willing it will be okay. But we've got

36
00:01:57,800 --> 00:01:59,320
Speaker 3: to get on with it. That's it. You know, we

37
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:03,960
Speaker 3: can't keep talking about a virus. Seriously, it's it's like,

38
00:02:04,080 --> 00:02:04,920
Speaker 3: let's move on now.

39
00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,120
Speaker 1: But also the minute you can't, suddenly may say okay,

40
00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:10,919
Speaker 1: I'm ready. Now you have to put all this plan.

41
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:12,800
Speaker 2: Someone's going to put the chairs out?

42
00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 3: Yeah, are you volunteering?

43
00:02:16,280 --> 00:02:18,280
Speaker 4: You know I would do it for you if you said,

44
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:20,240
Speaker 4: you called me, You've got my number. If you got

45
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,079
Speaker 4: means it, Jonesy, I need you to put some chairs out.

46
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:23,400
Speaker 4: I be right there.

47
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:26,880
Speaker 3: We've been debating first call, what have you been debating?

48
00:02:26,960 --> 00:02:28,919
Speaker 1: How we pronounced on chante is?

49
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 3: That? Is it exactly? And it means enchanted en chanted.

50
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,359
Speaker 3: And it's also a term of when when the French

51
00:02:38,480 --> 00:02:42,240
Speaker 3: usually meets somebody for the first time. It's it's just

52
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:45,720
Speaker 3: a polite way of saying, nice to meet you, enchanted

53
00:02:45,760 --> 00:02:46,640
Speaker 3: to meet you.

54
00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:49,320
Speaker 4: Yeah, the French are so sexy, aren't they really? You know,

55
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,000
Speaker 4: they gave us, you know, they gave us Manaja tire.

56
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:56,040
Speaker 1: Have you had they gave one to you?

57
00:02:56,240 --> 00:02:58,720
Speaker 2: I haven't had one myself. I'm always I'm always up

58
00:02:58,720 --> 00:02:59,079
Speaker 2: for one.

59
00:02:59,160 --> 00:03:01,640
Speaker 1: Well, the first time I went to Paris and someone

60
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 1: said to me, have you had a crap yet? And

61
00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,440
Speaker 1: I said, I beg your pardon and they said.

62
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:06,560
Speaker 2: They made a crape.

63
00:03:08,520 --> 00:03:15,600
Speaker 1: Great, because travel can be binding, it can be rather

64
00:03:16,160 --> 00:03:18,040
Speaker 1: because you spent a lot. I mean, you've been living

65
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:21,079
Speaker 1: in Paris. How obviously you can't be there now. That's

66
00:03:21,160 --> 00:03:22,120
Speaker 1: must be tough for you.

67
00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,600
Speaker 3: Well, not really, I strain it's a pretty fantastic place

68
00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:30,079
Speaker 3: to live and to be and you know it's improving

69
00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:32,280
Speaker 3: when you travel the world. And you know, I've been

70
00:03:32,320 --> 00:03:35,560
Speaker 3: really lucky enough to live in other places, you know,

71
00:03:35,640 --> 00:03:37,840
Speaker 3: but that's been a choice of my own as well.

72
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:42,080
Speaker 3: But you know, I don't think moving your heads in

73
00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,320
Speaker 3: life is moving a head in life. You can think

74
00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:46,960
Speaker 3: that the grass is greener on the other side, because

75
00:03:47,480 --> 00:03:49,600
Speaker 3: wherever it is that you go, wherever it is that

76
00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:52,160
Speaker 3: you lay your hat, you know, there are good and

77
00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:55,320
Speaker 3: bad things in every single place. It's like, it's what

78
00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:58,800
Speaker 3: you make of it as an individual, how you want

79
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 3: to live that experience. And I've lived it. I've lived it,

80
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:05,360
Speaker 3: you know, beautifully. But Paris was amazing in the nineties,

81
00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,040
Speaker 3: even in the two thousand. It's been in the last

82
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:10,920
Speaker 3: five years, I would have to say, very honestly, the

83
00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:14,440
Speaker 3: energy has changed in Paris and it doesn't have that

84
00:04:15,200 --> 00:04:19,039
Speaker 3: energy anymore. You know, it's kind of moved on. You know.

85
00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:21,400
Speaker 3: There's been a lot of a lot of tough things

86
00:04:21,400 --> 00:04:24,520
Speaker 3: of regions in the Frendships, you know, subject to a

87
00:04:24,520 --> 00:04:27,680
Speaker 3: lot of brutal things these last five years. So it

88
00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:31,280
Speaker 3: does change. So it does change the spirit of the

89
00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 3: of the place.

90
00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:35,760
Speaker 4: You know, we always get great wisdom from you, Tina.

91
00:04:35,800 --> 00:04:37,000

100
00:05:01,240 --> 00:05:01,840
Speaker 3: it would be.
