WEBVTT - MINI: 2 Topic Tuesday

0:00:00.520 --> 0:00:04.280
<v Speaker 1>Christ Yeah, welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell show podcast.

0:00:05.040 --> 0:00:09.160
<v Speaker 1>Dad Mountdowns and Dad Claim to Fame. Dad mount downside

0:00:09.160 --> 0:00:09.560
<v Speaker 1>this one.

0:00:09.640 --> 0:00:12.559
<v Speaker 2>My dad had a huge meltdown. What makes his story fun?

0:00:12.640 --> 0:00:15.960
<v Speaker 2>He is he's a reformed Buddhist, constantly telling my teenage

0:00:16.079 --> 0:00:19.720
<v Speaker 2>sisters and I about keeping calm and keeping himself. And

0:00:19.760 --> 0:00:21.840
<v Speaker 2>then one day out in the paddicle, Walmle died on

0:00:21.920 --> 0:00:24.080
<v Speaker 2>him and this thing was just ripped to pieces. The

0:00:24.079 --> 0:00:26.480
<v Speaker 2>more we laughed at him ripping it apart, the worse

0:00:26.520 --> 0:00:26.840
<v Speaker 2>it goad.

0:00:27.360 --> 0:00:29.760
<v Speaker 1>See even Dana Lama would lose a lot. Or if

0:00:29.760 --> 0:00:32.160
<v Speaker 1>he never used a whipper snipper, you know that would

0:00:32.200 --> 0:00:35.440
<v Speaker 1>test any Is he informed Buddhists like he's quit the monasterym?

0:00:35.520 --> 0:00:38.080
<v Speaker 1>Is that what they throw him out? Dave, We've spoken

0:00:38.120 --> 0:00:41.080
<v Speaker 1>to you about these. We should never put him on

0:00:41.120 --> 0:00:45.240
<v Speaker 1>gardening duties. He's a reformed Buddhist, he's given up the ways.

0:00:45.920 --> 0:00:48.520

<v Speaker 1>Jack Clean to fame. I'm very good.

0:02:47.520 --> 0:02:50.520
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. So I recently found out my dad tried out

0:02:50.520 --> 0:02:52.639
<v Speaker 3>for some killed her in the eighties and he made

0:02:52.639 --> 0:02:54.760
<v Speaker 3>it all the way through a pre season and in

0:02:54.800 --> 0:02:57.560
<v Speaker 3>the final game he got cut because Tony Lockett broke

0:02:57.600 --> 0:02:58.000
<v Speaker 3>his leg.

0:02:59.520 --> 0:03:03.480
<v Speaker 1>Tony lock can break your dad's leg. Yeah, well no, wow,

0:03:03.760 --> 0:03:05.400
<v Speaker 1>because he was so threatened by him coming on the

0:03:05.400 --> 0:03:06.560
<v Speaker 1>inside track took him out.

0:03:07.280 --> 0:03:07.480
<v Speaker 7>Yeah.

0:03:07.520 --> 0:03:11.960
<v Speaker 3>I think it was yeah, friendly fire type thing. He

0:03:12.040 --> 0:03:14.320
<v Speaker 3>told me last year we were at this and Kilda

0:03:14.440 --> 0:03:17.840
<v Speaker 3>finals game at the mc GEN. We'd had a few

0:03:17.880 --> 0:03:19.760
<v Speaker 3>beers each and he said, I try to have a

0:03:20.000 --> 0:03:20.880
<v Speaker 3>kid back when.

0:03:24.840 --> 0:03:30.360
<v Speaker 1>Cynical here, but there suddenly there doesn't grow family trees.

0:03:30.720 --> 0:03:33.200
<v Speaker 1>It kills brain cells and he gets two stories. Oh,

0:03:33.280 --> 0:03:37.960
<v Speaker 1>by the way, I should have mentioned this. Yeah, so yeah,

0:03:37.960 --> 0:03:39.480
<v Speaker 1>that would have gone all the way would have been

0:03:39.480 --> 0:03:42.160
<v Speaker 1>a contented was that breaking my leg?

0:03:42.800 --> 0:03:45.840
<v Speaker 3>He ended up playing pretty decent high level like a

0:03:46.040 --> 0:03:50.000
<v Speaker 3>VFL for box Hill and stuff and a few local

0:03:50.000 --> 0:03:52.800
<v Speaker 3>clubs around the area, so he did play quite well.

0:03:52.840 --> 0:03:56.320
<v Speaker 3>But yeah, I guess the eighty four pre season was

0:03:56.360 --> 0:03:58.800
<v Speaker 3>as bad as high as he could get before injury

0:03:58.880 --> 0:03:59.200
<v Speaker 3>set in.

0:03:59.440 --> 0:04:02.360
<v Speaker 1>It's a good to fame. It's a good story, all right, Jack,

<v Speaker 1>I'm going to welcome to the show. So tell us

0:08:16.320 --> 0:08:17.600
<v Speaker 1>about dad and this claim to fame.

0:08:18.080 --> 0:08:21.680
<v Speaker 5>Well, it's my grandpa. He was in the RAF and

0:08:21.800 --> 0:08:24.600
<v Speaker 5>he was invited to the garden party with the Queen

0:08:25.400 --> 0:08:28.960
<v Speaker 5>twice and had canceled twice due to death in the family.

0:08:29.600 --> 0:08:33.440
<v Speaker 5>And then he was invited again and finally went and

0:08:33.480 --> 0:08:35.240
<v Speaker 5>made the front page of the paper.

0:08:35.640 --> 0:08:37.520
<v Speaker 1>So it was third time lucky for the queen.

0:08:38.160 --> 0:08:41.079
<v Speaker 5>Yes, so he was in the RAF in bomber command.

0:08:41.160 --> 0:08:44.439
