Speaker 5: ten seven.
Speaker 1: That's a final gowndown. I'll stress.
Speaker 5: My sister's got four boys, and I don't know how
Speaker 5: people have because I thought when we when we went
Speaker 5: from one having one kid.
Speaker 4: To two, I thought it was going to obviously double
Speaker 4: the workload. It makes sense. It was actually like somehow
Speaker 4: quad troopling it when you go from one till two.
Speaker 5: Now anyway, Patsy was getting confused with the with the
Speaker 5: longer days, lighter nights, all right about tea time. Suddenly
Speaker 5: you have any preputee and a hitch is coming on

Speaker 5: TV show every day is the T time News that's right.
Speaker 3: Seven. Nationally seven is slightly ahead of Channel nine. In Melbourne,
Speaker 3: we slightly prefer Channel nine over Channel seven. But pretty
Speaker 3: much every Albernians pretty much every night. Yeah, the six
Speaker 3: o'clock news, the six thirty news, six thirty nine News,
Speaker 3: nine News at seven, a current affair, and then you
Speaker 3: get into things like the Block, the Chase, my Kitchen rules.
Speaker 4: And tell me right guys, growing up?
Speaker 5: Was there some kind of snobbery between seven and nine
Speaker 5: or was he kind of like it didn't really matter
Speaker 5: about which channel?
Speaker 2: You know what?
Speaker 3: We oddly watched Channel ten news. I think we always
Speaker 3: had it on The Simpsons at six o'clock and then

Speaker 3: who got paid fifty cents a night if he watched
Speaker 3: the news with his family. Oh your kids pocket money?
Speaker 1: What really?
Speaker 3: I guess the idea was to make him more worldly.
Speaker 4: Oh wow, how amazed him for me? Growing up?
Speaker 9: Right?
Speaker 5: Often the TV show that was unmissible, that we watched
Speaker 5: with the appearance was mainly about actually trying to go
Speaker 5: to bed as late as possible.
Speaker 4: So I was watching whatever TV show your dad was into.
Speaker 4: For some reason. It was always about running down that clock,
Speaker 4: wasn't it.

Speaker 5: alternative ways that you were paid yesterday, had a very
Speaker 5: attractive offer to host something. And normally when you ask

Speaker 5: some money, right, and I might think about it, depending
Speaker 5: on what the offer is, if I want to do it,
Speaker 5: and then I show up. But traditionally it's the way
Speaker 5: the market forces work is that you would make an offer.
Speaker 5: This person said, it's always a great love with ago.
Speaker 5: We don't have money to pay you. But I'm like,

Speaker 3: him a deal to come play with their regional football
Speaker 3: team in exchange for a cow.

Speaker 18: He would always get something return. He never he never
Speaker 18: got cash. He would never say X amount. He would
Speaker 18: say something like, oh, fuck it out and you can
Speaker 18: put the fish in it on your way past from fishing,

Speaker 18: So anything that he that he wanted or anything that
Speaker 18: was that people wanted, he would be paid in whatever.
Speaker 20: Anything just what was.
Speaker 18: I know, he would sell whatever was on the farm,
Speaker 18: like pumpkins and you know, like stock and stuff like
Speaker 18: that that he grew.
Speaker 4: Was going to sell these five pumpkins.
Speaker 18: Y, Yeah, so anything. When we got electricity put on

Speaker 18: logs and they were going to pay him for the
Speaker 18: electricity poles and he said, no, I don't want the cash.
Speaker 18: You can just put the mice his share of what

Speaker 8: So he was just.
Speaker 4: Incredible.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Marlene, thank you.
Speaker 4: B Yeah, you guys played a prank on me to.
Speaker 1: Do the last twenty minutes.
Speaker 2: Look, Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 5: Yesterday, we had a phone call from Tracy and we
Speaker 5: were just asking you who loves their job.
Speaker 4: Tracy calls in and while we're.
Speaker 5: Chatting to her and she's talking about this amazing voluntary
Speaker 5: voluntary work she does with the police. We found out
Speaker 5: whilst we'll listening to them, we're going through her life
Speaker 5: and it's all just happening in front of our ears
Speaker 5: and yours as well. If you heard it yesterday that
Speaker 5: Tracy actually someone who has she's got terminal breast cancer
Speaker 5: and found out a couple of years ago. But the
Speaker 5: reason why it's had such a huge reaction, and Jack
Speaker 5: and I almost want to go back to what she's
Speaker 5: opened up yesterday today and we can't stop thinking about it.
Speaker 4: When I went to bed last night.
Speaker 5: When I woke up this morning, I was thinking, I've
Speaker 5: even putten a little post by my computer at home.
Speaker 5: I have all these quotes on there. They come and
Speaker 5: go and various ones go up there, but I put
Speaker 5: brand new one up there. It's Tracy. It was something
Speaker 5: she said towards the end of the call when she
Speaker 5: was talking about she said, don't wait to get sick
Speaker 5: to start living your life, which is as good as
Speaker 5: a powerful kind of guiding compass point for your life
Speaker 5: than you can possibly get. And that came from Tracy yesterday.
Speaker 5: If you missed the call here.
Speaker 8: It is going to police stations for children ten to
Speaker 8: seventeen and for children and adults with an impairment when
Speaker 8: they getting in trouble with the police and they don't
Speaker 8: have anyone to help them out. I go in and
Speaker 8: make sure that everything goes according to plan and help
Speaker 8: them along the way. So I did the training and
Speaker 8: here I am. I'm literally when I phoned in, I
Speaker 8: was coming back from a police station. As I was
Speaker 8: phoning in, I've just got time.
Speaker 4: So you've been working already in the early hours of
Speaker 4: the morning or overnight.
Speaker 8: Got the phone call at So I've got this morning.
Speaker 4: And that's it. You get the phone call and off
Speaker 4: you go.
Speaker 16: There's a lot of kids out there with our parents
Speaker 16: and guardians, they know it.
Speaker 8: Everyone needs help.
Speaker 4: How did you get involved in that? I didn't even
Speaker 4: think that would be needed, but of course it would be.
Speaker 8: A girlfriend of mine has now passed away. She started
Speaker 8: it and she said, get me out of my cancer
Speaker 8: world because I've got terminal cancer and I love it.
Speaker 8: I absolutely love it.
Speaker 4: Tracy. Did you say you have terminal cancer?
Speaker 8: Yes, I do. I've got diagnosed ten years ago with
Speaker 8: some stage three breast cancer. And yeah, you poor thing.
Speaker 4: I'm so sorry to hear that, Tracy.
Speaker 8: I've had a good life, Christian, I've had a good life.
Speaker 4: Did you choose to do this because you wanted to
Speaker 4: use what time you've got to actually make an impact
Speaker 4: and do something that you know.
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, I like doing things for people, and I
Speaker 8: learnt the hard way. Don't get sick until he's start
Speaker 8: enjoying your life.
Speaker 3: But isn't there something so telling? I think of the
Speaker 3: way that you choose to spend your final moments on
Speaker 3: earth is giving back to people and doing something so selfless.
Speaker 8: Oh thank you.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's an amazing call, one that remembered for a
Speaker 5: very long time. The extra question has kind of come
Speaker 5: from Tracy and what she opened up yesterday in so
Speaker 5: many of us, is actually how she got that phone call,
Speaker 5: that news that doctor's appointment, are consultant in asking to
Speaker 5: come in, bring someone with you, and sitting down where
Speaker 5: suddenly your whole life, all the plans you had, they
Speaker 5: fall away, and you've got the news that no one
Speaker 5: ever wants to hear.
Speaker 4: But actually, Tracy made a choice.
Speaker 5: She went from where she could have been another awful
Speaker 5: statistic about breast cancer, where she really was a victim
Speaker 5: of cancer like too many people, But she actually made
Speaker 5: a choice.
Speaker 4: You heard it in there.
Speaker 5: She loves her job, she's got terminal cancer, that's true,
Speaker 5: but she's also made this choice where she went from
Speaker 5: not being a victim, she actually became the hero of
Speaker 5: her own life story.
Speaker 4: That's what she chose to do.
Speaker 3: There's no more immediate way, I think, to learn what
Speaker 3: your priorities in life. Fire didn't to be given a
Speaker 3: time limit, and when you know that there's an incoming,
Speaker 3: you can go, all right, well what do I want
Speaker 3: to spend the rest of my time doing? And I
Speaker 3: thought it was an amazing that she wanted giving and
Speaker 3: being general without expecting something in return is what she chose.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and we all know how this is going to end,
Speaker 5: but we just take it for granted. You moan most
Speaker 5: of your days, You turn most of your life into
Speaker 5: an endless series of tasks and obligations and demands. You've
Speaker 5: got to get around to her and this weekend, I've
Speaker 5: got to go and do that. And you forget underneath
Speaker 5: it all. It's going to come to an end, and
Speaker 5: we forget to live our lives with purpose and intention.
Speaker 5: And that is what Tracey's done. And that is why
Speaker 5: everyone who heard it yesterday and all the emails I've
Speaker 5: had from people, she had an awakening in her life.
Speaker 5: She took something devastating news, life changing news, and somehow
Speaker 5: Ben Crow this performance coach to coaches, most of the
Speaker 5: footy players and ash party. He calls them crucible moments
Speaker 5: where your life is literally on fire. We're trying to
Speaker 5: withstand this very high temperature. There's news that you've had
Speaker 5: in your life, and how can you change it, how
Speaker 5: can you reshape what's happened.
Speaker 4: That's what Tracy did.
Speaker 5: That was a crucible moment, getting the cancer news and
Speaker 5: actually decided, well, that's true, I am going to die,
Speaker 5: but on the time i've got I'll do something that
Speaker 5: brings me join it. I'd love to find out that
Speaker 5: in them people like Tracy, who else listened this morning
Speaker 5: had some life changing news and somehow you turned it
Speaker 5: into something positive, something you could actually empower you. You
Speaker 5: took back the power from that phone called that doctor's appointment.
Speaker 5: If you're listeners thinking that's me, I've got that story,
Speaker 5: we'd love to hear it this morning. These stories have
Speaker 5: got so much power. They inspire all of us. So
Speaker 5: many people have them. Inspired by Tracy. Give me call
Speaker 5: and share your story. We'd love to hear it. How
Speaker 5: you took something life changing news and somehow you made
Speaker 5: something positive out of it. You formed a diamond out
Speaker 5: of the shit.
Speaker 2: Basically, Well, Christian no Connell's show podcast.
Speaker 5: So we're looking for your stories of how you had
Speaker 5: life changing news but somehow you turn it into something positive,
Speaker 5: something empowering.
Speaker 4: You took your power back. Neil.
Speaker 5: Good morning, Good morning, Christian. I'm good Neil. Thank you
Speaker 5: very much for calling in first of all and trusting
Speaker 5: us with your story.
Speaker 4: So what happened to you, Neil?
Speaker 9: So you'd have to excuse me? So I always get
Speaker 9: choked up with this. So I spent thirty three years
Speaker 9: in the Australian Defense Force as a full time and
Speaker 9: a part time soldier, went to different units, and I
Speaker 9: spent thirteen years with the commandos here in Melbourne at Williamstown.
Speaker 9: And there was a couple of sort of pivotal moments,
Speaker 9: crucible moments like you said before, and I had there
Speaker 9: was a period where about half a dozen of my
Speaker 9: colleagues and friends committed suicide after coming back from Afghanistan
Speaker 9: and different operations. And I wanted to make a bit
Speaker 9: of a difference because I'd had a pretty good life.
Speaker 9: And I started a group called Double Dagger Projects, and
Speaker 9: I've run now about seven or eight events and both
Speaker 9: here in Melbourne and in New South Wales. And I
Speaker 9: helped to raise about two hundred thousand dollars for veteran welfare.
Speaker 4: Hey well done, now that's incredible, thank you.
Speaker 9: Now I'm just an e for me. I organize an
Speaker 9: event and we try to do our best to promote it,
Speaker 9: and then we take that money and we give it
Speaker 9: to organizations like Cam's Clause Commander Welfare, Trust Soldier On,
Speaker 9: different organizations like that, because they have the ability to
Speaker 9: provide programs for veterans. So I create an event. It's
Speaker 9: a motorcycle ride, card drive, people catch a train, I
Speaker 9: don't care how they get to where wherever we've got
Speaker 9: to go.
Speaker 20: And then we have a live concert, food ouctions, raffles
Speaker 20: and basically Christian I just try and take as much
Speaker 20: money off these people as they possibly can so that
Speaker 20: I can hand it over to the other charitable organizations.
Speaker 9: And we've been going for five or so years now.
Speaker 9: And as I was saying to Jack, in twenty fourteen,
Speaker 9: I had a catastrophic motorcycle accident in February of fourteen
Speaker 9: and I went home in December and it was I
Speaker 9: was on a lot of medications to help me, and
Speaker 9: you know, so I sort of got at these clarities
Speaker 9: of thought and said, you've survived something, you've come out
Speaker 9: of everything else that you've done. Let's pay back, you know,
Speaker 9: to those guys and the families who didn't have it
Speaker 9: so good.
Speaker 5: Well, it's incredible, what inspirational man you are, Neil. You
Speaker 5: know it's it's criminal, isn't it what happens to you know,
Speaker 5: the vets that have so many of them. Now we
Speaker 5: know I've got PTSD and have just been let down
Speaker 5: by the country that they were serving and defending.
Speaker 9: It is totally ridiculous. And I don't want to make
Speaker 9: you know, any of this a political thing, but it
Speaker 9: is horrible that we have to fight that, you know,
Speaker 9: so I'll just have to fight soldiers and seem that
Speaker 9: they have to fight so hard to get anything back
Speaker 9: and get and get recognition of the problems because you
Speaker 9: can't go you can't even train littleone go on a
Speaker 9: live operation and not come back changed. You know, there
Speaker 9: was a Roman poet, sorry a Greek poet philosopher has
Speaker 9: said that no man steps into the same river twice
Speaker 9: because it is not the same river, and he is
Speaker 9: not the same man. You know, we always get touched
Speaker 9: and changed and altered by something. And not only do
Speaker 9: the service people pay the price, it's the families that
Speaker 9: pay an even greater price in a changed family member
Speaker 9: or the loss of a family member or the loss
Speaker 9: of capability or something like that. And it's really important
Speaker 9: that we recognize that, so we do these things. You know, look,
Speaker 9: we're not huge Christian I hope one day that we are.
Speaker 5: We'll give yourself a bug. Can people donate? You know,
Speaker 5: it's like when we heard about backpacks of it kids.
Speaker 5: That is not a big charity, but like your one,
Speaker 5: they make an impact and that's the one thing you
Speaker 5: can control. You can't control what the politicians are going
Speaker 5: to they should be in the loads more and this
Speaker 5: is the same all over the world. But it's like
Speaker 5: you can control what you do and you are making
Speaker 5: a difference.
Speaker 9: Thank you. So we're on Facebook and Instagram as Double
Speaker 9: Dagger Projects. Now Jack asked me what that represents, and
Speaker 9: we have a I think we have a cool logo.
Speaker 9: So the two Commando Regiment's been one Commando Regiment, which
Speaker 9: is the reserve unit. Their logo, their hat badge is
Speaker 9: a dagger through a boomerang strike swiftly is the motto,
Speaker 9: and two Commando Regiment, which is the full sign regiment,
Speaker 9: which is swift to strike. Their hat badge is a
Speaker 9: dagger through double diamonds, and the double diamonds has a
Speaker 9: history back to the Emin's Special Forces similar during the
Speaker 9: Second World War. So I've tried to take the elements
Speaker 9: from those two regiments and turn them into a logo
Speaker 9: and hopefully your producer are sitting there bringing us up
Speaker 9: on the on Facebook or Instagram.
Speaker 5: You're giving them so much credit. We're not past of
Speaker 5: some crack unit here. I'll be doing that at break
Speaker 5: but we'll have it and we'll share that on our
Speaker 5: social pages as well.
Speaker 1: The double Date, Double Daggers Project, Double.
Speaker 9: Dagger Projects is what we do when our next event
Speaker 9: is in Sittney and you're going to ask it a
Speaker 9: date and I can't remember it to November I'm top
Speaker 9: of my head. And then in February around about the
Speaker 9: twenty first I think it is down here in William said.
Speaker 9: We actually run it at the Pirates Tavern, which is
Speaker 9: a great vinny for us because I can put hundreds
Speaker 9: of people into there, which is really good.
Speaker 5: I'm sure there's loads of people that want to come
Speaker 5: and support that. There be so many people that have
Speaker 5: been affected by what you're talking about. With that's and PTSD.
Speaker 5: We will we'll share your social pages. But now, thank
Speaker 5: you very much for picking up the phone, I mean,
