WEBVTT - MINI: Weird Flex

0:00:01.520 --> 0:00:05.640
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to the Christian O'Connell show podcast. Yesterday, we're doing

0:00:05.640 --> 0:00:08.000
<v Speaker 1>a week as Claim to Fame, but we do every Wednesday,

0:00:08.039 --> 0:00:11.360
<v Speaker 1>No Claim to Fame two week for us. Yesterday quite

0:00:12.240 --> 0:00:17.040
<v Speaker 1>quite uneasial call. Firstly, our first ever anonymous caller, and

0:00:17.440 --> 0:00:18.880
<v Speaker 1>she wanted to come on here give a name, which

0:00:18.920 --> 0:00:22.040
<v Speaker 1>is totally fine and was about something that happened fifty

0:00:22.040 --> 0:00:27.360
<v Speaker 1>one years ago that she's never discussed publicly, and luckily

0:00:27.360 --> 0:00:29.600
<v Speaker 1>for us, she decided to give that exclusive to The

0:00:29.680 --> 0:00:31.960
<v Speaker 1>christianer connell Show. And here's some of it.

0:00:31.960 --> 0:00:34.199
<v Speaker 2>It's sort of jolted my memory of the weekend when

0:00:34.200 --> 0:00:37.040
<v Speaker 2>I was watching the Queen's Jubilee and I saw the

0:00:37.120 --> 0:00:41.320
<v Speaker 2>coronation coach and I have actually nineteen seventy one. I

0:00:41.440 --> 0:00:44.879
<v Speaker 2>sat in that coach and I thought, well, that's probably

0:00:44.920 --> 0:00:47.800
<v Speaker 2>something that most of your listeners probably won't believe that

0:00:47.880 --> 0:00:48.520
<v Speaker 2>it is true.

0:00:49.440 --> 0:00:51.240
<v Speaker 1>She was calling in just a little up over you

0:00:51.440 --> 0:00:54.160
<v Speaker 1>and all of us. Actually amazing. That is about the

0:00:54.160 --> 0:00:56.480
<v Speaker 1>third call we've had in two weeks where a listener

0:00:56.480 --> 0:00:59.800
<v Speaker 1>has been watching TV and they see something. You imagine

0:00:59.840 --> 0:01:01.920
<v Speaker 1>that come on, as coach, you've been on that. There

0:01:01.960 --> 0:01:05.160
<v Speaker 1>was Mariah Carey last week, and then there was Nicole

0:01:05.240 --> 0:01:07.200
<v Speaker 1>Kidman yesterday, I should have had a chits with her.

0:01:07.560 --> 0:01:10.480
<v Speaker 1>Nicole Kidman. Yeah, that's a that's a all right, So

0:01:10.520 --> 0:01:13.520
<v Speaker 1>we wan note today then like anonymous there, what do

0:01:13.560 --> 0:01:16.800
<v Speaker 1>you think you've done that no other listener has done?

0:01:16.800 --> 0:01:19.440
<v Speaker 1>People call this like a flex, but what is yours? Okay?

0:01:19.480 --> 0:01:21.160
<v Speaker 1>What do you think that you've done that no other

0:01:21.240 --> 0:01:24.479
<v Speaker 1>listener has done? On nine four one four one four three,

0:01:24.800 --> 0:01:27.040
<v Speaker 1>every single week the best caller we get guess one

0:01:27.080 --> 0:01:29.480
<v Speaker 1>thousand dollars thanks to Mercedes Benz Berrick. So you could

0:01:29.520 --> 0:01:31.320
<v Speaker 1>be with your story the one thousand dollars carter of

0:01:31.319 --> 0:01:33.480
<v Speaker 1>the week. So it might have been that you've been somewhere,

0:01:34.040 --> 0:01:37.800
<v Speaker 1>You've seen something, you've held something. I'm trying to go

0:01:37.840 --> 0:01:41.880
<v Speaker 1>thro all the senses now, you've licked something, you tasted something,

0:01:42.040 --> 0:01:48.600
<v Speaker 1>you've extrasensory perception, you perceived something, you foreshadowed something. This

0:01:48.800 --> 0:01:52.080
<v Speaker 1>is the Christian O'Connell show podcast. What do you think

0:01:52.120 --> 0:01:54.920

0:01:54.960 --> 0:01:59.280
<v Speaker 1>one and only. Come on to Wesley, Come on in Where's.

0:01:59.440 --> 0:01:59.960
<v Speaker 3>Now as a guy?

0:02:00.200 --> 0:02:00.920
<v Speaker 4>Christian and Sam?

0:02:01.080 --> 0:02:02.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, we're good. Where's what do you think you're the

0:02:02.760 --> 0:02:05.600
<v Speaker 1>only person who's done something. What is it for you? Wheres?

0:02:06.680 --> 0:02:10.120
<v Speaker 4>So back in South Africa, there's a trail called the

0:02:10.160 --> 0:02:14.080
<v Speaker 4>Oilifants Trail and it's pretty much a forty five golometer

0:02:14.200 --> 0:02:16.960
<v Speaker 4>trail that you do down the Olyphants Rubber River which

0:02:17.000 --> 0:02:20.400
<v Speaker 4>is in Kruger National Park. And the one night we

0:02:20.520 --> 0:02:22.600
<v Speaker 4>decided to stop next to the river, it was a

0:02:22.720 --> 0:02:26.560
<v Speaker 4>rock pool that had probably thirty hippos on the left

0:02:26.600 --> 0:02:29.440
<v Speaker 4>and about thirty crocodiles.

0:02:28.800 --> 0:02:30.000
<v Speaker 1>On the raft four.

0:02:31.840 --> 0:02:35.440
<v Speaker 4>So it's we literally and it was the hippos and

0:02:35.480 --> 0:02:40.400
<v Speaker 4>crops are probably fifteen meters away from where we were.

0:02:40.240 --> 0:02:42.120
<v Speaker 1>Both and they hate each Other's not the bloods and

0:02:42.160 --> 0:02:44.160
<v Speaker 1>the crypts exactly.

0:02:45.760 --> 0:02:47.880
<v Speaker 4>I could stand off between two gangs.

0:02:48.480 --> 0:02:49.560
<v Speaker 1>And did you swim in there?

0:02:50.720 --> 0:02:52.320
<v Speaker 4>Yeah? So we swim, Well we didn't swim.

0:02:52.600 --> 0:02:57.480
<v Speaker 1>Did you do that? The two animals want? Why you

0:02:57.480 --> 0:02:58.520
<v Speaker 1>don't want to live anymore?

0:03:00.000 --> 0:03:01.560
<v Speaker 4>This is one of those things that you've been walking

0:03:01.600 --> 0:03:03.520
<v Speaker 4>the whole day and it was you know, probably thirty

0:03:03.560 --> 0:03:05.240
<v Speaker 4>five degrees and you just want to get in the

0:03:05.280 --> 0:03:07.359
<v Speaker 4>water regardless of what's around you.

0:03:07.840 --> 0:03:09.760
<v Speaker 1>I don't think I've ever I think I can't imagine

0:03:09.760 --> 0:03:11.720
<v Speaker 1>ever in that district for a little cooled down.

0:03:13.800 --> 0:03:17.160
<v Speaker 4>Down. Sorry is that again?

0:03:17.280 --> 0:03:19.440

<v Speaker 4>For go awesome stuff.

0:03:21.000 --> 0:03:22.000
<v Speaker 1>Thanks Christian, thank you.

0:03:22.080 --> 0:03:27.160
<v Speaker 5>Mane Elliott, yeah him. When I was in the States

0:03:27.200 --> 0:03:32.520
<v Speaker 5>in nineteen eighty five and my parents took me to

0:03:33.440 --> 0:03:37.680
<v Speaker 5>my sister to Universal Studios and they said, oh, who

0:03:37.760 --> 0:03:39.960
<v Speaker 5>wants to know do this and do these little things

0:03:39.960 --> 0:03:42.360
<v Speaker 5>around Universal Studios. I put my hand up and said,

0:03:42.440 --> 0:03:43.760
<v Speaker 5>who wants to ride on ET's bike?

0:03:43.840 --> 0:03:44.000
<v Speaker 2>Oh?

0:03:44.080 --> 0:03:47.560
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, yeah you can, And they said, okay, cool, And

0:03:47.600 --> 0:03:51.960
<v Speaker 5>what's your name? It's Elliott And they said, oh no, no, no, no, no, no,

0:03:52.080 --> 0:03:54.840
<v Speaker 5>you're playing Elliott. What's your name? And my mother no, no,

0:03:54.920 --> 0:03:57.480
<v Speaker 5>his actual name is Elliott. So I got to ride

0:03:57.480 --> 0:04:02.520
<v Speaker 5>on ET's fine in Universal Studios as as a young kid,

0:04:02.800 --> 0:04:07.280
<v Speaker 5>and of course I was Elliott playing Elliott Elliott.

0:04:08.040 --> 0:04:11.400
<v Speaker 1>I understand now, Elliott, correct me if I'm wrong. Isn't

0:04:11.440 --> 0:04:14.760
<v Speaker 1>this one of the rides at Universal where people from

0:04:14.800 --> 0:04:16.800
<v Speaker 1>all over the world have been doing it for you know,

0:04:16.960 --> 0:04:18.040
<v Speaker 1>forty odd years.

0:04:18.279 --> 0:04:19.800
<v Speaker 5>It's not one of the rides to say it's a

0:04:19.839 --> 0:04:21.480
<v Speaker 5>fix it's a fixed thing. So what they do is

0:04:21.520 --> 0:04:23.760
<v Speaker 5>they do a green screen in the background and they

0:04:23.839 --> 0:04:25.760
<v Speaker 5>kind of call it. So then you can you look

0:04:25.880 --> 0:04:27.880
<v Speaker 5>like you're going out on ET's mic. So it's not

0:04:27.920 --> 0:04:28.919
<v Speaker 5>the actual right itself.

0:04:29.000 --> 0:04:31.040
<v Speaker 1>Gotcha right, okay, but other people can do.

0:04:31.000 --> 0:04:33.600
<v Speaker 5>It, Yeah, anyone can do it.

0:04:34.160 --> 0:04:36.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but not everyone's named Elliott. No, you're quite right

0:04:37.040 --> 0:04:40.440
<v Speaker 1>that we will give you Elliott Elliott. Gotcha Elliott, Thank

0:04:40.480 --> 0:04:43.200
<v Speaker 1>you very much and cool cheer. Do you know what mate?

0:04:43.480 --> 0:04:43.880
<v Speaker 2>Uh?

0:04:44.200 --> 0:04:44.520
<v Speaker 1>Mark?

0:04:46.160 --> 0:04:46.440
<v Speaker 5>All right?

0:04:46.520 --> 0:04:51.000
<v Speaker 6>Christian my flips is on the only Australian to ever

0:04:51.080 --> 0:04:55.440
<v Speaker 6>receive a standing ovation at the Winter Gardens in Blackpool

0:04:55.480 --> 0:04:58.920
<v Speaker 6>in England for the World Dance Championships because I saved

0:04:58.920 --> 0:05:02.000
<v Speaker 6>a nine year old boy from drowning in the Irish

0:05:02.000 --> 0:05:03.160
<v Speaker 6>Sea off North Pier.

0:05:04.480 --> 0:05:05.920
<v Speaker 1>There's a lot going on this. I mean he must

0:05:05.960 --> 0:05:08.040
<v Speaker 1>have been a bloody awful dancer if he danced off

0:05:08.080 --> 0:05:09.120
<v Speaker 1>the ballroom into the.

0:05:09.120 --> 0:05:17.400
<v Speaker 7>Sea an extreme competition. You know you're dancing and watch

0:05:17.440 --> 0:05:22.400
<v Speaker 7>out because when the dancer ends, you're in the sea.

0:05:22.520 --> 0:05:25.800
<v Speaker 3>I was a photographer. I finished my career as a dancer.

0:05:25.839 --> 0:05:28.360
<v Speaker 3>So I was down at the pier and the young

0:05:28.400 --> 0:05:29.799
<v Speaker 3>fellow fell in and was drowning.

0:05:29.839 --> 0:05:31.920
<v Speaker 6>So I dove in and pulled him out and see

0:05:32.000 --> 0:05:34.880
<v Speaker 6>that they had nine people drown the year before.

0:05:35.320 --> 0:05:37.880
<v Speaker 1>It's really rough around there. The sea is like, I mean,

0:05:38.200 --> 0:05:46.120
<v Speaker 1>freezing cold. It is. This is incrediable. So what do

0:05:46.160 --> 0:05:48.880
<v Speaker 1>you mean you're not standing ovation because obviously you pulled

0:05:48.880 --> 0:05:50.719
<v Speaker 1>out one of the losing dancers.

0:05:51.520 --> 0:05:55.200
<v Speaker 5>No, no, I went back in and one, I'm so keen.

0:05:55.120 --> 0:05:57.320
<v Speaker 1>Wet in my mind, you're soaking wet with your neck

0:05:57.360 --> 0:05:59.120
<v Speaker 1>on around your neck and a kid drakes over your

0:05:59.160 --> 0:06:01.919
<v Speaker 1>shoulder being out fish and water people go.

0:06:03.560 --> 0:06:03.880
<v Speaker 4>No.

0:06:04.160 --> 0:06:06.160
<v Speaker 3>I had enough time to get on get on some

0:06:06.240 --> 0:06:07.880
<v Speaker 3>new clothes, and I went back in and.

0:06:10.080 --> 0:06:10.919
<v Speaker 1>See the one.

0:06:12.680 --> 0:06:15.320
<v Speaker 6>Actually have to wear one once.

0:06:14.720 --> 0:06:21.839
<v Speaker 1>As they always a dancer, I can sell fox from

0:06:24.000 --> 0:06:29.320
<v Speaker 1>great cool, Thank you very much. Mark. Is this going

0:06:29.360 --> 0:06:30.719
<v Speaker 1>the way we thought it was going? I'm not sure.

0:06:30.800 --> 0:06:33.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm enjoying it anywhere. I'm enjoying it anyway. Seventh, the

0:06:33.880 --> 0:06:39.200
<v Speaker 1>listeners are Joel Joel Morning Career going yeah yeah, yeah,

0:06:39.240 --> 0:06:41.240
<v Speaker 1>good yeah, Joel, what do you think you've done that

0:06:41.279 --> 0:06:43.840
<v Speaker 1>nobody else listening has done so.

0:06:43.920 --> 0:06:47.000
<v Speaker 3>I've done this hundreds of times in my life. I

0:06:47.200 --> 0:06:50.320
<v Speaker 3>foreshadow this future, even my dreams, usually about three to

0:06:50.400 --> 0:06:51.360
<v Speaker 3>four weeks in advance.

0:06:52.480 --> 0:06:55.240
<v Speaker 1>That is quite some skill. I read about people.

0:06:56.320 --> 0:06:58.880
<v Speaker 3>It's usually not. It's usually not big things. It's usually

0:06:58.880 --> 0:07:01.919
<v Speaker 3>small things and news. My dream is missing bits. But

0:07:02.000 --> 0:07:04.040
<v Speaker 3>when I get to the event, I see something that

0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:06.880
<v Speaker 3>triggers my memory and then relapsing the whole entire dream

0:07:06.960 --> 0:07:08.080
<v Speaker 3>and the things around me happen.

0:07:08.480 --> 0:07:10.560
<v Speaker 1>So are you talking about sporting events.

0:07:11.240 --> 0:07:14.680
<v Speaker 3>I have done a sporting event. Yeah. Yeah. When I

0:07:14.720 --> 0:07:18.600
<v Speaker 3>was younger, I predicted a sporting result and I did

0:07:18.720 --> 0:07:19.960
<v Speaker 3>exactly a month in advance.

0:07:20.360 --> 0:07:22.360
<v Speaker 1>What was the result? What was that footy game?

0:07:23.160 --> 0:07:23.360
<v Speaker 5>Yeah?

0:07:23.400 --> 0:07:25.800
<v Speaker 3>I predicted an Essen in Geelong game in the early nineties,

0:07:26.200 --> 0:07:29.960
<v Speaker 3>and I couldn't I couldn't put names with faces. But

0:07:30.000 --> 0:07:32.560
<v Speaker 3>I picked one player kicking fourteen goals. I kicked one

0:07:32.600 --> 0:07:34.400
<v Speaker 3>player kicking teen goals in the other team, and I

0:07:34.400 --> 0:07:36.840
<v Speaker 3>think there's a two goal margin at the end of

0:07:36.880 --> 0:07:37.240
<v Speaker 3>the game.

0:07:37.800 --> 0:07:40.120
<v Speaker 1>So who who? Who was it? Like Gary Ablett?

0:07:40.160 --> 0:07:40.280
<v Speaker 5>Then?

0:07:40.880 --> 0:07:43.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I was actually Geelong versus Essen. And then Gary

0:07:43.240 --> 0:07:46.320
<v Speaker 3>Ablett kicked fourteen and Paul Salmon kicked ten on the day,

0:07:46.320 --> 0:07:48.920
<v Speaker 3>I believe, and I'm pretty sure that Geelong won by

0:07:49.960 --> 0:07:50.840
<v Speaker 3>fourteen points.

0:07:51.080 --> 0:07:53.400
<v Speaker 1>So you saw all that and you went this looks familiar. Yeah,

0:07:53.440 --> 0:07:54.200
<v Speaker 1>I've seen this before.

0:07:54.320 --> 0:07:56.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, well that's this is how This is a thing

0:07:56.600 --> 0:07:58.080
<v Speaker 3>when I when I wake up for my dream, I

0:07:58.080 --> 0:07:59.920
<v Speaker 3>can usually tell people around me I've had a dream,

0:08:00.280 --> 0:08:02.560
<v Speaker 3>and I can't I can tell them parts of it.

0:08:02.720 --> 0:08:04.040
<v Speaker 3>I just say, look, it was a weird dream. I

0:08:04.080 --> 0:08:06.240
<v Speaker 3>don't remember it all. And then about a month later

0:08:06.360 --> 0:08:08.320
<v Speaker 3>I'll look them go remember dream, I'll telling you about

0:08:09.080 --> 0:08:10.760
<v Speaker 3>what we've just seen. Just happened.

0:08:11.840 --> 0:08:14.000
<v Speaker 1>This is incredible. I mean, and did you go to

0:08:14.160 --> 0:08:16.000
<v Speaker 1>like lab Broaks or anything to put some money on

0:08:16.040 --> 0:08:16.760
<v Speaker 1>with the full shadow.

0:08:17.400 --> 0:08:21.120
<v Speaker 3>I was only a young girl at the time, so yeah, no,
