Speaker 6: Knowice of the kids. It's not really for us. Why
Speaker 6: are you I know this one?
Speaker 7: Oh my voice, it's spinning a million plates at once.

Speaker 7: hotel janitor.
Speaker 6: It is like that.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's like you know, my wife USh to do
Speaker 5: obviously the morning shift, get the food ready before for
Speaker 5: home learning and that. And then when I get there
Speaker 5: it's lunch time. They it just come down and they go,
Speaker 5: what's for lunch? Like there should be a banquet ready?
Speaker 5: Have a look in the fridge. I said, make yourself something.
Speaker 5: You're old enough now. Then they open the fridge door.
Speaker 6: And stare at it and go, what do I even begin?
Speaker 7: That's the thing, And then it is. It's it's like
Speaker 7: non stop. And there's also this expectation that because everyone's
Speaker 7: high at lunch, that we never have a hot lunch
Speaker 7: unless we're out. But suddenly I'm expected to present a
Speaker 7: hot lunch. And it's like, no, there's bread and meat
Speaker 7: and salad for a sandwich. Why because you're home.
Speaker 8: Do you?
Speaker 6: And you know kids love a good old salmad meat sandwich.
Speaker 4: They and it's great that you're doing all that extra
Speaker 4: work pathy, but it still doesn't really explain the lost.
Speaker 3: Because I'm exhausted Jack, They're wearing.
Speaker 6: Me Jean yet at us. There's too much yetting in
Speaker 6: your life.
Speaker 3: No, I'm your fine.

Speaker 3: That that is why I'm just preserving my instrument.
Speaker 4: You've got the huskiness. That actually sounds kind of nice.
Speaker 5: Oh that sounds creepy when a guy says that to
Speaker 5: a woman. It's loaded. It's loaded with a couple of
Speaker 5: decades ago. Sam Newman got the huskiness. It sounds nice.
Speaker 5: Let's just move on and reset. That's the bad news.
Speaker 5: Everyone just want to give it you up top. Patsy's
Speaker 5: losing a voice because you've been making food.
Speaker 1: The Christian O'Connell show podcast, So.
Speaker 6: Big news in Melbourne yesterday The Melbourne Star. No more.
Speaker 6: Who on this show has actually been on The Melbourne Star.
Speaker 7: Oh, I went in June during our survey break Pert
Speaker 7: one of the.
Speaker 5: Few people I've met since they moved it three years ago.
Speaker 5: There's ever been on it.
Speaker 7: Oh, it was great the view. We went on a
Speaker 7: really clear sunny day and it was so much fun.
Speaker 5: But what is the view up there, because like in
Speaker 5: London they've got like the London Eye, so a bigger
Speaker 5: version same thing right and there. It's right on the
Speaker 5: River Thames. It's right in the middle of London, so
Speaker 5: your opposite big bend the Houses of Parliament, you know,
Speaker 5: is an amazing skyline. You're right in the middle of London.
Speaker 5: You can see Bucking and Panis. I'm pretty sure you know.
Speaker 5: Whenever I'm sort of driven past, it's always that thing
Speaker 5: you see going to the airport, going back with go Melbourne.
Speaker 6: Before you see like the g and feel proud and
Speaker 6: up that thing. And it seems to just mainly be
Speaker 6: a view of the roof of Costco And how.
Speaker 4: Dare you wanted to never doing rotating? I never see
Speaker 4: it moving.
Speaker 7: Yeah, no, it goes nice and slow, Jack, but you
Speaker 7: can you can see right out to Rosebud, to the
Speaker 7: Yu Yang's over in the west, right out way past
Speaker 7: your way at Thornbred.
Speaker 3: Jack, the view was quite good.
Speaker 6: To me. It was at night, it was at his peak.
Speaker 6: It looked nice to look at.
Speaker 5: I always think it looked great in the sky and
Speaker 5: one okay, but in terms of actually the viewing experience
Speaker 5: going on it. I always sort of just seemed to
Speaker 5: be like in a dreary part of the industrial area.
Speaker 5: Stick that right outside the G or all the sports
Speaker 5: precinct is there. That's an amazing beautiful part of a
Speaker 5: view over the G or something like that.
Speaker 4: I think they built it in a time where they
Speaker 4: were redeveloping all of docklands and they actually thought we
Speaker 4: were going to be flocking the dock lands every weekend.
Speaker 5: Remember was it last year on the show? And I
Speaker 5: started moaning about docklands well, chatting to Sally Cat and
Speaker 5: Sudd got the lord Mago's I live there.
Speaker 9: You call.
Speaker 5: She'd be taking a big hammer today to that Millennium Star,
Speaker 5: furious furious to us Melbourne has didn't back the Star
Speaker 5: thirteen years it's been there.
Speaker 6: And then you knows, perhaps he must have reported on it.
Speaker 5: I didn't really knowze so when they when they opened
Speaker 5: it thirteen years ago, it only ran from about forty days,
Speaker 5: shut it for two years because it wasn't good and
Speaker 5: basically the weather.
Speaker 6: What have they been doing? What had they been building? When?
Speaker 5: Was it based for Saudi Arabia or where it can't
Speaker 5: cope with some rain and some winds. I think got
Speaker 5: it from cheap I'm.
Speaker 7: Guessing didn't the pods crack and they had to take
Speaker 7: some of the pods off.
Speaker 4: I remember there was a crack in there. They were
Speaker 4: worried about spinning it around.
Speaker 5: Really, yeah, we had all this, have you? So you've
Speaker 5: been on the one in London that's got a nice view.
Speaker 4: One in London is great. I would never think to
Speaker 4: go on the Melbourne Star. I didn't actually pat on
Speaker 4: surprise you went on it, because I thought people from
Speaker 4: Melbourne didn't go on and it was a tourist trap.
Speaker 4: Only the only person I know who ever even got
Speaker 4: a ticket for it was my mum. Got a ticket
Speaker 4: for the Melbourne Star when it first opened from my
Speaker 4: brother for Christmas. But he didn't give it like family
Speaker 4: pass or even a ticket for mom and dad. It
Speaker 4: was just one single solo ticket for Mom to go
Speaker 4: on the Melbourne.
Speaker 6: Just by yourself. In a punishment.
Speaker 5: Pods kind of share the experience for anyone else. It's
Speaker 5: more like solitary confinement.
Speaker 7: They get you, though, don't they, because it's like every
Speaker 7: other attraction, like you know in New York. You as
Speaker 7: soon as you get off, you've got the photo opportunity.
Speaker 7: So you stand in a fake pod and you can
Speaker 7: get like that.
Speaker 6: Can't you get the photo up there again? A experience?
Speaker 5: Who wants a photo of your sav looking out over
Speaker 5: the roof of Costco and that thorn in the distance.
Speaker 6: Why do I feel so miserable right now?
Speaker 7: Then you wait half an hour for it to develop,
Speaker 7: so you're standing around, standing around, standing around.
Speaker 4: Can you guys super impose me on the London one.
Speaker 5: I want to see lots of around the world that
Speaker 5: is so great on the Melime Star. You can see
Speaker 5: the time. It always just seemed to be a deserted
Speaker 5: sort of wasteland there as well. Yesterday on the TV news,
Speaker 5: this is a great story for a local TV news,
Speaker 5: isn't it that the guy who was really this is
Speaker 5: you know and there was Trump put everything in a
Speaker 5: COVID thing right now, don't they's the backdrom.
Speaker 6: This is just another bad day for Melbourne.
Speaker 5: And I was thinking, how many of us really upset
Speaker 5: that the Mediennium Star is going to be put out
Speaker 5: on hard rubbish?
Speaker 6: Is it just gonna be sort of lent over and
Speaker 6: outside of a nature stripped down there? Today? We can
Speaker 6: all get one have your own part. And they were going.
Speaker 5: People here in Melbourne would have stories about the millenniums
Speaker 5: in the Melbourne style that they got engaged on it.
Speaker 5: You know, they met lovers on there, they went on
Speaker 5: first date. So again, did anyone ever get engaged on that?
Speaker 5: I'm sure that no one's got engaged.
Speaker 4: Even people went on it. But Patty's been on it.
Speaker 6: Had an amazing time. You can Chack.
Speaker 1: You can see thor Christian Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 5: We're heading into our final couple of days then on
Speaker 5: Who's Calling Christian?

Speaker 5: give us a call, where that celebrities from the eighties
Speaker 5: or nineties people used to be on posters on your
Speaker 5: bedroom walls, or your favorite sports stars or comedians. And
Speaker 5: the reason why you're asking him to give us a call,
Speaker 5: what's in it for them? And the reason why we've
Speaker 5: had how many are we up to twenty four twenty
Speaker 5: four celebrities ins over a week on this is they
Speaker 5: can win twenty five thousand dollars for the charity of
Speaker 5: their choice. And every single person who's called the show
Speaker 5: or left a message from when we're not here. I've
Speaker 5: all talked about a charity that really means something to
Speaker 5: them and they can also win you twenty five thousand
Speaker 5: dollars as well. So it's going to end nine am
Speaker 5: this Friday. Then we'll announce the top five of our
Speaker 5: favorite calls based on your comments as well, and then

Speaker 13: Best to the radio, because radio kept us going during
Speaker 13: hard times.
Speaker 5: That's a very nice kind of blessing, you know, a
Speaker 5: shout out to radio and all the people that work
Speaker 5: in radio chat to you guys, it's very nice to
Speaker 5: have that from a man like Father Bob. Often on
Speaker 5: radio you'll hear shout outs. Right, we don't do it
Speaker 5: on this show, but lots of other shows. Love just
Speaker 5: wasting your time by just saying names out loud, people
Speaker 5: you don't even know, who've.

Speaker 5: perhaps Father Bob basically doing a shout out genetically to
Speaker 5: something other than being a human being. Maybe this is
Speaker 5: a new thing we could start. There must be other
Speaker 5: things you want to have shout outs too that aren't
Speaker 5: actual people. If you do, I'm quite happy to sell
Speaker 5: out who to something else, something actual, physical rather than
Speaker 5: just a human being.

Speaker 4: will do non human based.
Speaker 6: Non hure ones. Or I will do a centim being.

Speaker 5: come to the end of its life. A few years ago,
Speaker 5: my wife and I needed to face the task of
Speaker 5: buying a new toaster, thinking this.
Speaker 6: Will be a straightforward process. It was not. At the
Speaker 6: shop seeing all the different.
Speaker 5: Toasters lined up with their different functions, different slice capacity,
Speaker 5: a lot of pressure on us, made even worse by
Speaker 5: my wife insisting that the new toaster must match the
Speaker 5: kitchen and other appliances.
Speaker 6: And my wife's like that.
Speaker 5: It's all got to make sense. It felt like the
Speaker 5: ending of Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, where he
Speaker 5: was faced with having to choose the Holy Grail. Make
Speaker 5: make the wrong choice in your life will suffer. It
Speaker 5: needs us to say we panic chose poorly. Now live
Speaker 5: with a deep regret on this bad life choice we
Speaker 5: have made. Jack needs a new toaster. That's some Dave Osbourne.
Speaker 5: I have to play some audio. Some guy has said
Speaker 5: there's a guy on YouTube. You know there's so many
Speaker 5: people now on YouTube everything. This guy he is mister Toaster, right.
Speaker 5: He's some Russian guy over in Russia, right where he
Speaker 5: reviews every single toaster that's available for us to buy
Speaker 5: for like a ten minute in depth review. I've heard
Speaker 5: some of the audio, right, It's like a sashion Baron
Speaker 5: Cohen character.
Speaker 6: I can't believe it's a real All I.
Speaker 4: Need from a toaster is just the press down function.
Speaker 4: I never use any of those, but can't buy that.
Speaker 4: There's too many buttons, yew, there's too many functions.

Speaker 5: there were thousands of screaming kids right, it was like
Speaker 5: beatle Mania. My sister fainted and she was right at
Speaker 5: the front by the crash barriers got pulled out. She
Speaker 5: missed the missed Your entire show made it to her

Speaker 5: You guys could really sing.
Speaker 9: Ah, thank you Matt. Yeah, I mean we got discovered
Speaker 9: as a band.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 9: It was like I think, because when you get screened up,
Speaker 9: people kind of like to get shop. But it was
Speaker 9: some of the best years of my life with some
Speaker 9: of these, certainly in Australia as well. We turned up
Speaker 9: to Sydney and there were ten thousand people at Sydney
Speaker 9: Airport and incredible, incredible experiences globally.
Speaker 5: Really and also moments say, heyday of sort of the tabloids, newspapers.
Speaker 5: This was back when they would just make stories up.
Speaker 5: I remember, and I actually believed this for a while.
Speaker 5: Wasn't there a story going round that you and your
Speaker 5: brother were genetically modified?
Speaker 9: Do you remember that? Apparently they said that we had
Speaker 9: we had our cheekbones inserted, so we looked more alike
Speaker 9: and we were twins anyway, but they just just in
Speaker 9: case we weren't twins enough. Yeah, apparently that we were
Speaker 9: genetically kind of like modified, which is she always fun.
Speaker 9: You should try it.
Speaker 6: The thing is, I feel embarrassed saying this.
Speaker 5: I actually believed it because back when you thought, well,
Speaker 5: if the newspaper's saying this, it's obviously the truth. And
Speaker 5: I actually thought, make it. They look genetically modified. That's
Speaker 5: why they're too good looking. They've been GM.
Speaker 9: Modified GM AI.
Speaker 6: You were early AI, you and your brother and so
Speaker 6: I know you did a big residency for years in Vegas.
Speaker 6: How was that?
Speaker 5: Didn't you do like ten twelve years? I saw in
Speaker 5: the documentary a couple of years ago that yeah, we just.
Speaker 9: Well COVID really is the reason I stopped because all
Speaker 9: the shows came to a close. Yeah, but it was
Speaker 9: one of the longest running male residences in Vegas history.
Speaker 9: So I was at Caesars Palace for ten years, and
Speaker 9: just over a year ago I stopped and then started
Speaker 9: a new record. But it was something that was incredible,
Speaker 9: incredible experiences. It was an incredible being the headliner on
Speaker 9: the strip and alongside Celine Dion and Elton John and stuff.
Speaker 6: It was incredible, one amazing experience. And how many shows
Speaker 6: were you doing a year?
Speaker 9: About It got up to about one hundred and twenty
Speaker 9: shows a year. So if you think the average world
Speaker 9: tour is eighty, so we were doing one hundred and
Speaker 9: twenty a year, so it's pretty crazy.
Speaker 6: Wow. Wait and how many years did you keep that up?
Speaker 9: For just under eleven years? So yeah, we did the decade?
Speaker 6: And how did you keep going? There must have been
Speaker 6: on us, right, There must have been some nights when
Speaker 6: I can't do it, I cannot go out there again.
Speaker 9: Yeah, to real to view it was just it was
Speaker 9: it got to the point at the end of the
Speaker 9: residency I was just like I was just starting to
Speaker 9: feel that exact way. I was just like, I need
Speaker 9: to get out to the world. I need to see
Speaker 9: you know, Melbourne and you know Paris and Berlin and
Speaker 9: Tokyo and London, and I just need to get out
Speaker 9: And that's why I really it was. It was almost
Speaker 9: like Heaven sent in a weird way. I just like,
Speaker 9: I have to really look at my life and just
Speaker 9: get back to the world and and write a record
Speaker 9: that will enable me to do that exact thing, you know, and.
Speaker 5: You obviously still love singing live because you've got I
Speaker 5: know you've got a new song, haven't you I do.
Speaker 9: It's called Somewhere to Fall and work with everyone from
Speaker 9: Babyface to you know, Jay Rustling read day by daily,
Speaker 9: some great, great producers and just it was.
Speaker 14: It was.
Speaker 9: It's a diary, kind of a snapshot into the last
Speaker 9: couple of years of my life. Be really really proud
Speaker 9: of it. Going back to pop really really you know, bangers,
Speaker 9: real bangers on this on this album.
Speaker 6: Do you know what?
Speaker 5: I moved here from the UK all right three years
Speaker 5: ago and I've been trying to get Australians to say
Speaker 5: the word bangers, and our listeners now say it back
Speaker 5: to me.
Speaker 9: Bang yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's great to hear the word bangers again. It's
Speaker 5: a kind of fish thing. Isn't the phrase for a
Speaker 5: good song? It's a banger.
Speaker 9: It's a banger. Yeah. It's like you know, anyone listening
Speaker 9: in Australia, there are there are worse options than bangers.
Speaker 6: You need to bring out the greats, cross bangers.
Speaker 9: Cross bangers. Yeah, calling Christians, calling Kinston and cross bangers.
Speaker 9: I see where you're going.
Speaker 5: But I like it, and so were you hoping that
Speaker 5: you'll be able to get on the road again and
Speaker 5: go and come over to Australia and go and tour
Speaker 5: the world with the new stuff.
Speaker 9: I am, without question next year going to Australia. Some
Speaker 9: of the greatest memories of my life is touring was
Speaker 9: in Australia. I mean they said hundreds and hundreds of
Speaker 9: shows and around the world, but I've not been able
Speaker 9: to get back to OZ and I just it is

Speaker 9: No, no, no, it was a higher ground Superstition. And
Speaker 9: you're I'm a massive to you under Fance. So I
Speaker 9: always I always love doing CEV Wonder and just you know,
Speaker 9: we get in the band always love it, so we
Speaker 9: just I mean, it's crazy for me to get back
Speaker 9: on the stage. I think most musicians even listening more
Speaker 9: will relate to just wanting to get back on stage
Speaker 9: and and just feeling the energy that you get from
Speaker 9: a live audience. I can't wait to get back on stage.
Speaker 6: And how do you think it be now touring in

Speaker 5: the show. All your messages on Instagram, Facebook sign then
Speaker 5: Matt Gas him or Bross and Tim Ferguson from Doug
Speaker 5: Anthony Allstar, so many many other things, including a movie
Speaker 5: we were talking about bizarrely, I think two or three
Speaker 5: weeks ago. Have you bought something A Sembrities spin Out?
Speaker 6: Spin Out? Yeah? That was it? All right?
Speaker 5: So yesterday big news here then Melbourne Star no More?
Speaker 5: I mean, how do they perhaps do you know what
Speaker 5: happens now they've announced that it's no more? Does it
Speaker 5: just get dismantled and sold or I.
Speaker 7: Think there's two options. They can sell it or they
Speaker 7: sell it for scrap I guess please.
Speaker 5: Can they list on real estate dot com dot au
Speaker 5: so we could all have a little sneak peek around
Speaker 5: all the rooms. I saw someone online yesterday, Tim I
Speaker 5: think he works to the ABC suggest that they turn
Speaker 5: it to a giant rotating quarantine hotel, which is a
Speaker 5: credit because it's on the way from the airport to
Speaker 5: the city.
Speaker 4: And you're sealed in those pods this waving.
Speaker 5: Your friends are in there and family members before you
Speaker 5: actually see them. So I hope they do do a
Speaker 5: live auction, right they need a giant for sales sign
Speaker 5: on an hoarding like you get when you drive around
Speaker 5: the burbs.
Speaker 4: But in all honestee, if the company goes bankrupt and
Speaker 4: they said we can't afford to do it anymore, can
Speaker 4: they just walk away and leave it there and make
Speaker 4: it somebody else's problem? Or do they are they forced
Speaker 4: to dismantle it?
Speaker 3: They've got a buyer?
Speaker 4: But what if they don't. What if nobody wants to
Speaker 4: operate the Melbourne staff from here on it?
Speaker 6: Yeah, who's chombus in to actually take it down? Bit
Speaker 6: by bit? I want to know.
Speaker 5: Yesterday when I was watching this on the on the news,
Speaker 5: they're a reporter down there, obviously, right, and they were
Speaker 5: talking about this is this is this is another sad
Speaker 5: day for Melbourne on top of lockdown, one of the
Speaker 5: longest lockdown cities in the world. And this is all
Speaker 5: Melbourne has need right now, a beloved historic landmark.
Speaker 6: They I know, come on, they take away our freedom.
Speaker 5: They can be protesting this weekend about this on the
Speaker 5: anti vaxes.
Speaker 6: They'll be climbing up.
Speaker 4: It yourself to the star this weekend.
Speaker 5: I want to see the freeways. I want to see
Speaker 5: what's on the roof a Costco. I want to see
Speaker 5: Thornbury from up here. So many great spectacular views. And
Speaker 5: Patsy is the only other person we've spoken to who's
Speaker 5: been on it.
Speaker 6: And your mum.
Speaker 4: No mum never went on it. You can't. She got
Speaker 4: the ticket for Christmas. But then it shot for four
Speaker 4: years after it open, opened for forty days.
Speaker 6: That has corrected us. It shot for five years.
Speaker 5: It built it forty days of Melbourne weather right, and
Speaker 5: then they were like, it can't hand it hates he
Speaker 5: hates being here.
Speaker 6: It is not. It's not taken to Melbourne. Shut it
Speaker 6: for five years. What were they doing for five years
Speaker 6: waiting for ten Orgy to catch up? Because someone else
Speaker 6: saw it out waiting for the wind. It's going to
Speaker 6: get colder. We could open it again.
Speaker 4: And then remember it would have been when you first
Speaker 4: got here in twenty eighteen. It just stopped while people
Speaker 4: were on it.
Speaker 3: How long four about an hour? I believe it was.
Speaker 5: To be terrifying that sometimes happens with the with the
Speaker 5: London Eye. The London Eye because it's right in the
Speaker 5: middle of London, right on the river there and you've
Speaker 5: got like big Ban and how's the Parliament. You can
Speaker 5: see bucket and place. You get all the views of
Speaker 5: the city and that. So it was a very it
Speaker 5: is a very bottled place for people to go and
Speaker 5: propose on. I wonder if we have listeners. I've even
Speaker 5: been on it all right, eyewitness account.
Speaker 4: That's the first step. Can we get any calls.
Speaker 6: You it has anyone?
Speaker 5: This guy yesterday on the news was talking about people
Speaker 5: going on first dates proposing. Has anyone really thought what
Speaker 5: a great landmark, you know, one of the best iconic,
Speaker 5: you know, beautiful moments that not the lane ways or
Speaker 5: someone like by the mcg but actually going on that
Speaker 5: the star to propose to somebody.
Speaker 4: So are we looking for any milestones, first date, break ups, proposals.
Speaker 6: First dates, last dates, people sprinkling ashes in there. Any
Speaker 6: I'm struggling here, I'm struggling here.
Speaker 5: Okay, any story, never know, imagine there's been a stranger some.
Speaker 6: I'm sorry, it's Uncle Bertie.
Speaker 4: He loved the view, he loved the start.
Speaker 5: He loves seeing thromb on a clear day and the
Speaker 5: roof of that cos.
Speaker 2: This is the Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 5: Do you have a story about the Melbourne Star because
Speaker 5: it was it originally known as the Southern Star.
Speaker 4: No, I don't think so.
Speaker 3: No, just a star.
Speaker 5: I think actually cutting that line in quiry down Pat,
Speaker 5: No think it was picture challenge. Keep me up in
Speaker 5: the air with that one. Still got that voice what
Speaker 5: she needs it? No, Darren, good.
Speaker 9: Morning, Good morning, Christian.
Speaker 11: I'm stringing up.
Speaker 16: My old boss used the Melbourne Star as a team
Speaker 16: building exercise for our group of six day starff.
Speaker 5: Who are you working for? David Brent from the So,
Speaker 5: how did it work then with your entire team and
Speaker 5: all the pods?
Speaker 16: Well, you can only fit eight into a pod, so
Speaker 16: that we were separated into two teams to go into
Speaker 16: the different pods. So yeah, it was thirty minutes to
Speaker 16: go around the round the eye, and it was a
Speaker 16: little bit underwhelming really, and.
Speaker 5: Also not that team bonding because you're all separated into
Speaker 5: just pods of two.
Speaker 16: Yeah yeah, we can look out the window at the
Speaker 16: other ones.
Speaker 4: But yeah, Darren, did you feel like it brought you
Speaker 4: closer together as a unit?
Speaker 17: Um?
Speaker 16: Oh, we're about twenty meters apart. I suppose I meant like.
Speaker 4: I morally, did it bring you?
Speaker 6: Team bonding is about your distance there, Darren. I think
Speaker 6: the team bonding works, are you co ser Yeah? I
Speaker 6: sit now next to Pete back in.
Speaker 16: We'd already had I think it was about six or
Speaker 16: seven hours in a hotel meeting room doing planning out

Speaker 6: much for a breaker down that day for us, that.

Speaker 5: be began this year with one last game? Can we
Speaker 5: end with one last spin?
Speaker 4: We have to go round.
Speaker 5: I think if it was like a charity thing, they
Speaker 5: could raise some money for great charity right here in Melbourne.
Speaker 6: Christine, good morning.
Speaker 12: Hi, good morning, how are you.
Speaker 6: I'm good Christine? So the Star. What's your story about it.
Speaker 12: I was one of the first workers of it when
Speaker 12: it opened up the first time as the Southern Star
Speaker 12: Observation Wheel.
Speaker 6: Excuse me, newsreaders, apologize local it was originally known as
Speaker 6: the Southern Star.
Speaker 12: Yeah, I've still got to drink bottle. That's the Southern
Speaker 12: Star Observation Wheel.
Speaker 5: And it must have been really exciting when it opened
Speaker 5: because obviously, I guess it was seen as a big
Speaker 5: thing to renovate the Docklands area.
Speaker 6: And so was it good fun of work there for
Speaker 6: a brief period.
Speaker 12: It actually really was. I made a couple of really
Speaker 12: good friends there, and all the managers were great. We
Speaker 12: just had a really fun time. So my job was
Speaker 12: what was called guest so basically with ticket selling and
Speaker 12: so you either did that or you would controlled the line.
Speaker 12: So that was kind of our job. And yeah, I
Speaker 12: was part of the first wedding that was on it.
Speaker 12: I was pulled aside by my manager and she's like, oh,
Speaker 12: come with me for a minute. So we went up
Speaker 12: to the top floor where you get off, and she
Speaker 12: asked me to give champagne to the couple who came
Speaker 12: off the wheel just after their wedding.
Speaker 5: Someone got married on it, yeah, we have to by
Speaker 5: the end of this week track them down.
Speaker 6: Do we think they're still together?
Speaker 12: I have no idea.
Speaker 18: I don't even know the names to be honor.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and so were you there when it was originally
Speaker 5: open for that brief period like forty or fifty days
Speaker 5: and they closed it for five years?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 18: It was.
Speaker 12: It was basically just the summer job. And then we
Speaker 12: came into work one day and they told us it's
Speaker 12: not working anymore. We have to close it down.
Speaker 5: Has there been another major tourist attraction. I think it
Speaker 5: cost over one hundred million that opened only forty or
Speaker 5: fifty days.
Speaker 6: And then they closed it for five years to affair it.
Speaker 4: Because one hundred million, that's even a million dollars a day.
Speaker 5: You'd want your money back. Has it some sort of refund?
Speaker 5: Christine lovely story. Thank you very much to give us
Speaker 5: a call on.
Speaker 14: Holding on no worries.
Speaker 9: Thanks, have a great day than you.
Speaker 6: Steve Yes, Steve the Star. What can you tell us?
Speaker 17: Okay, so Christine obviously worked there. Well, she would probably
Speaker 17: know me because I was the first public person to
Speaker 17: write it, because I won the Herald Sun Prize to
Speaker 17: be the first public person to write it, and not
Speaker 17: only that, I got a pre tour of the construction
Speaker 17: site as part of the prize.
Speaker 6: What a prize? How did you win it?
Speaker 9: Then?
Speaker 6: I know it was in the newspaper, but what did
Speaker 6: you have to do? Yeah?
Speaker 17: I had to apply. It was an email application or
Speaker 17: online application through the Herald Sun. But I actually sent
Speaker 17: an email saying that if I win, I'll propose to
Speaker 17: my missus and surprised prize I win. So there was
Speaker 17: I got an email from the project marketing manager for
Speaker 17: my an G real Estate and I'm actually looking at
Speaker 17: that email as we speak from the Waterfront City team
Speaker 17: and they said congratulations, you won. And that was on
Speaker 17: the twenty eighth of February two thousand and eight. And
Speaker 17: I because it was delayed so long and so long
Speaker 17: it was meant to be open during the night, then
Speaker 17: it was going to be changed for a morning show
Speaker 17: with the Today Show for a grand opening. Then a
Speaker 17: phone call from Amy saying that we may be getting
Speaker 17: Jessica Simpson in the carriage with you at the grand open.
Speaker 6: This is incredible. How random?
Speaker 14: Yeah?
Speaker 17: And it was delayed, delayed, delayed, and in the end,
Speaker 17: because I was replying, I was on standby for so long.
Speaker 17: My missus actually found I was replying to emails. If
Speaker 17: you questioned me, who are your applying to? No one?
Speaker 9: No one?
Speaker 17: And and I ended up fessing saying, oh, look a
Speaker 17: grand prize to the Ferris Wheel. And she goes, what
Speaker 17: else are you doing? And she she basically found out
Speaker 17: that I was going to propose from the first because
Speaker 17: she goes, I love you, but I don't want to
Speaker 17: be placid all over the news, right across every paper
Speaker 17: across the Southern hemisphere. And so I didn't propose. But
Speaker 17: they were very gutted the Southern Star Reservation Wheel because
Speaker 17: they had they had the age. It's actually pretty.
Speaker 9: She was there to be the main of honor, but
Speaker 9: it was.
Speaker 17: Look, it has been a disaster that that wheel. And
Speaker 17: thankfully my relationship hasn't been like that where we're fourteen
Speaker 17: years going strong and we're actually expecting it on the baby.
Speaker 5: So congratulations, that's great. St So let me tell you,
Speaker 5: so you go on it. You did go on the wheel,
Speaker 5: the first public person to go on and use it?
Speaker 6: Yep, what was it like? We are scared because she
Speaker 6: must have been a bit scared.
Speaker 17: Well, I was more actual. We took my niece and nephew,
Speaker 17: because I've got to pick a group of this with us.
Speaker 17: They were they were cractually more terrified than us. But yeah,
Speaker 17: look at what it was fascinating. But the first thing
Speaker 17: that we thought was what a crappy location? Like, why
Speaker 17: was you put us here?
Speaker 6: That's the first thing weakness report of history.
Speaker 4: You're exactly who they wanted to get.
Speaker 5: What was it like at the fall in the burning
Speaker 5: wall rubbish wall really shot?
Speaker 17: No, No, that was internal thinking. But but look it
Speaker 17: was pretty special at the time. You know, obviously they were.
Speaker 9: Trying to.
Speaker 17: Compare it to the Singapore Flyer. Yeah, but it realistically
Speaker 17: it was looking over the dock the docklands of Melbourne.
Speaker 17: Not the best location.
Speaker 6: Steve, Thank you very much, your story mate. Take care.
Speaker 2: Cheers by Christian Connell show podcast that's has gone off
Speaker 2: for Who's corning?
Speaker 6: Christian has find out who's there now to talk to us?
Speaker 6: Good morning? Who is this?
Speaker 18: Good morning Christian? This is comedian Bill Rook Jay Singer speaking.
Speaker 18: How are you?
Speaker 6: You don't need to chuck in the comedian, we know
Speaker 6: who you are.
Speaker 18: You Well, this is where I'm insecure because it's been
Speaker 18: such a flex already buzzly. The song that was playing
Speaker 18: is backshit Boys, and I know AJ is already called
Speaker 18: in right, it's bad enough, Olivia Newton, Johnny is in
Speaker 18: the mix. How am I meant to break them?
Speaker 8: Like?
Speaker 18: What a flex by AJ? First of all? And then
Speaker 18: I'm a scuming Christian. This is just a few coincidence
Speaker 18: that my intro song was a song called immigrant song
Speaker 18: talk about being on the back foot on a bloody Tuesday.
Speaker 6: Morning, feeling paranoid.
Speaker 18: Oh my god, mate, here here I am. I know
Speaker 18: we've met a couple of times.
Speaker 17: I'm like, I'm.
Speaker 18: Pretty sure he knows me. But I'm telling you, I mean,
Speaker 18: come on, like, surely, surely I'm in with a chance
Speaker 18: somehow the underdog story.
Speaker 6: Right, Yeah.
Speaker 5: I follow you on Instagram and I always get inspired
Speaker 5: because obviously your story of the last couple of years.
Speaker 5: I think I saw earlier this year. I think it
Speaker 5: was July or something you celebrate five years sober as well.
Speaker 18: There was actually a couple of weeks ago, five years
Speaker 18: of sobriety. Yeah exactly, because that's say coming from Sri Lanka.
Speaker 18: But my parents, you know, well, it was made sure
Speaker 18: that I you know, hit the books and then certainly
Speaker 18: they send me to a country like Australia and turns
Speaker 18: out I can scull a pint in four seconds, and
Speaker 18: then all of a sudden I was made national hero
Speaker 18: at the University Genius. Yeah, exactly exactly, but no, it is.
Speaker 18: It is really lovely to call in. It was Mary
Speaker 18: Antigus on Instagram hit me up, fleeted my DMS and
Speaker 18: said can you do this? And I was like absolutely.
Speaker 18: And the charity that I'm calling in for is Shake
Speaker 18: it Up Australia. It is a charity setup for Parkinson's
Speaker 18: research and they do a lot of great work with
Speaker 18: the Michael J. Fox Foundation as well, and I've worked
Speaker 18: with them a few times now, and and you know,
Speaker 18: so why not also something else to do right in
Speaker 18: the morning, given that a live comedian, there's not much
Speaker 18: else going on.
Speaker 5: Thank you for making it feel like you're ticking something
Speaker 5: off to do during the day, giving us a call.
Speaker 18: Deal, rook mate, because straight up this, I'm going back
Speaker 18: into an anxiety attack of watching session. I've been watching
Speaker 18: Succession and I honestly it's so addictive, but I'm in
Speaker 18: a panic mode the whole time. Who knew corporate meetings
Speaker 18: were going to be that exciting. Like I used to
Speaker 18: be an accountant and I got fired from my accounting
Speaker 18: to job because I fell asleep so many times at
Speaker 18: the desk.
Speaker 5: I do you like Succession? Its great, isn't it. We
Speaker 5: we love that show. It's back next month, the new season.
Speaker 18: Oh my god. Yeah, So that's why I'm doing a
Speaker 18: big catch up. And it's a bit too much to
Speaker 18: watch back to back. And you know, I suppose it's
Speaker 18: that thing is there's so many different little things to
Speaker 18: do well around in our lockdown because I'm here in
Speaker 18: Melbourne as well, and I heard you guys giving little
Speaker 18: shout outs to non human shout outs before. Would you
Speaker 18: permit me to do one for me please as well?
Speaker 18: Of course I'd love to shout out. I have a
Speaker 18: thing Christian called a puzzle board, which is basically, now
Speaker 18: that I'm thirty six, apparently I'm prone to back injury,
Speaker 18: so I can't do jigsaw puzzles on a regular table anymore.
Speaker 18: And I had a winger about it on Instagram and
Speaker 18: someone's a friend of mine. She said, her stepdad makes
Speaker 18: this table. There's only three that he's ever made, and
Speaker 18: I have one of them, which is basically like a
Speaker 18: if you can imagine a musician sort of yeah, you
Speaker 18: know the sheet music where they place it on that, Yeah,
Speaker 18: Theiger version of that. But it's really low and it
Speaker 18: sort of rolls over into the couch, so you can
Speaker 18: lean on back in the couch and it just comes
Speaker 18: over you like a trade table on an airplane.
Speaker 5: This is the sort of thing that someone who's like
Speaker 5: a hundred might use.
Speaker 18: I know exactly this is what this is like. I
Speaker 18: thought Vastuar was grim right there, being a single man,
Speaker 18: a single man in a one bedroom apartment for one
Speaker 18: hundred and eleven days straight right this year. I have
Speaker 18: a girlfriend, but she's in wa so obviously Mark McGowan
Speaker 18: has been you know, c blocking us for the love.
Speaker 6: You're the real victim of this. You are the real
Speaker 6: victim genitals.
Speaker 18: I suddenly remember what timeslot were when I was on
Speaker 18: my end.
Speaker 9: Thanks for covering me.
Speaker 6: Then I can't start thinking about this puzzle board.
Speaker 5: At first, when you said it was because of the
Speaker 5: bad back, I thought you meant it was a puzzle
Speaker 5: board where you know, when you're lying face down through
Speaker 5: that doughnut hole on a massage table, you did it
Speaker 5: through that little.
Speaker 18: That actually seems a lot to make more, a lot more.
Speaker 6: I might take that on Shark Tank.
Speaker 18: How can I be the model? You know, don't worry
Speaker 18: about he means an out of work comedian.
Speaker 5: You're a comedian there, and so what are you doing
Speaker 5: other than your what is the puzzle that you're doing,
Speaker 5: by the way at the moment, because if you got
Speaker 5: the puzzle.
Speaker 18: Actually it's even sad. And the puzzle I'm doing is
Speaker 18: a a the World Atlas because I can't travel the world.
Speaker 6: Bleak and sad about that.
Speaker 18: Yes, so many things a blink about it. It's fifteen
Speaker 18: hundred pieces and the majority of it is just oceans
Speaker 18: and it's not like it's like different scades of ocean.
Speaker 18: It's just like a blue And also they've got the
Speaker 18: entire border is blank white. So at the moment, I
Speaker 18: spent the last three hours of the last few days
Speaker 18: just trying to get the border right because it's just
Speaker 18: all white pieces.
Speaker 5: This is all this is how was a over the
Speaker 5: border control So being careful you could start an international incident.
Speaker 18: Yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. There's a lot of exciting things happening.
Speaker 18: I'm actually waiting for my Australian story very shortly.
Speaker 6: I'm sure once they've heard all this, they'll be called
Speaker 6: in today. Deal, don't you worry about that now? And
Speaker 6: what I alse are you doing them?
Speaker 5: Because obviously you must be missing live because till rook,
Speaker 5: if you ever get the chance to see him live
Speaker 5: and we can and we will get out of this.
Speaker 5: But you aren't amazing. You can of stand up deal
Speaker 5: with really really great style.
Speaker 18: Thank you, guys.
Speaker 9: I appreciate that it is.
Speaker 18: Actually, it's so funny that you have Jack post on
Speaker 18: the over there highjacket because I think there was a
Speaker 18: time when I actually, you know, and you know, his
Speaker 18: his hobby show that he does sometimes that I was
Speaker 18: actually an accountant at the time when I called in
Speaker 18: and I hid under the desk when I called in
Speaker 18: on that show. And I think it was a three
Speaker 18: four months later that I could inspired to do a
Speaker 18: stand up So I think I partly have Jack to
Speaker 18: thank for it, because here in his love cone through
Speaker 18: the phone line was like, I'm okay, maybe I can
Speaker 18: do it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Deal sent me the audio of that. He called
Speaker 4: Haim Shnani probably more than ten years ago, now, hey.
Speaker 18: Yeah, it was twenty ten.
Speaker 6: Yeah, And when he called in, you say, Deale Rock accountant.
Speaker 18: Well, actually no, I think the whole gag was the
Speaker 18: fact I said Dylan, they thought I was Bill, and
Speaker 18: then I just kind of, you know, went on a
Speaker 18: whole rant about the difference between Dill and Bill, and
Speaker 18: now the phone line should be clearer.
Speaker 5: Well, everyone, we're asking who calls him? Right, We're asking
Speaker 5: what song is the kind of guilty pleasure? The song
Speaker 5: I listened to when there's no one else around?
Speaker 6: What is it for you?
Speaker 18: So I'm a massive, massive eminem fan, like I'm obsessed
Speaker 18: like with you know, I watched YouTube clips about his
Speaker 18: lyric breakdowns. So obviously my guilty pleasure is calm chamelion
Speaker 18: by culture.
Speaker 6: Makes sense, I mean, listen to that.
Speaker 18: I dare anyone. Okay, if you're in a bad mood,
Speaker 18: obviously not a seriously bad mood, but if you're in
Speaker 18: a little bit of a mental fun what's that time on?
Speaker 18: And it's so hard to it's so hard to, like,
Speaker 18: you know, not not not put yourself in a good one.
Speaker 6: I had to.
Speaker 18: Preface that by saying, you know, not in a seriously
Speaker 18: psychologist officer playing I'm a Chamelion in a waiting room.
