Speaker 2: Got anything good?
Speaker 3: Hey?
Speaker 4: This is the Christian O'Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 1: Hey, this is Christian here. Thank you very much for
Speaker 1: checking out today's show. Now, the one thing I'm excited
Speaker 1: to talk about today something I've been working on for
Speaker 1: a couple of years. I've written a new book and
Speaker 1: it's out for pre order today, comes out in July,
Speaker 1: and it's called Unscript, The Radical Act of being Yourself,
Speaker 1: and it's about something very very dear to my heart,
Speaker 1: which is about how we connect to each other and
Speaker 1: what gets in the way to deeper, real connection. And
Speaker 1: one thing I've noticed, and I know that you all
Speaker 1: would have noticed this as well in your own lives
Speaker 1: as well. Over the last couple of years, we are
Speaker 1: becoming more and more disconnected. As we spend more and
Speaker 1: more time online. We're losing like this muscle that we
Speaker 1: have to connect with each other. And the more time
Speaker 1: we are online, we think we're being social. And if
Speaker 1: you would, you think, but a social media isn't actually
Speaker 1: that social. It's more about the algorithm wants us to
Speaker 1: stay in the algorithm, and it feeds us division and anger.
Speaker 1: It's not about true connection. That is not where true
Speaker 1: connection lives in front of each other. We're losing this.
Speaker 1: And the one thing about why I think radio is
Speaker 1: a magical, magical media more than TV or anything else,
Speaker 1: is that radio is about right now and the radio
Speaker 1: we do and the radio you hopefully like listening to.
Speaker 1: And we've heard this through so many stories from you guys,
Speaker 1: day in, day out. Is it's a chance to actually
Speaker 1: drop the performance that most of us do in all
Speaker 1: of our lives. There was a point before I decided
Speaker 1: to move to Australian really change our lives, where I
Speaker 1: was driving home from a radio show I've done four
Speaker 1: hours I took for four hours. I built that show
Speaker 1: that had two and a half million listeners. And you know,
Speaker 1: sometimes you catch yourself in the mirror. I was stuck
Speaker 1: in traffic, which was every day in my life in London,
Speaker 1: and I looked at myself in the rearview mirror and
Speaker 1: I looked away because I certainly realized, you actually haven't
Speaker 1: said anything for the last four hours that you actually meant.
Speaker 1: I'd realized I was performing a version of myself and
Speaker 1: I think this happens to a lot of us. We're
Speaker 1: performing a version of us house and it wasn't just
Speaker 1: a work. I realized it was starting to creep into
Speaker 1: my home life as well, so I made it. I'm
Speaker 1: also as how exhausting it is to keep up this
Speaker 1: performance of a version of yourself. And again, social media
Speaker 1: is great, there's so many great things about social media,
Speaker 1: but what it also shows us is a fake version
Speaker 1: of people. And think it makes us think that we
Speaker 1: need to be some perfect version to have connection with
Speaker 1: other people. And the one thing I can tell you
Speaker 1: is that people are starved of real connection. You don't
Speaker 1: connect to someone trying to be perfect. You connect to
Speaker 1: someone when they drop the act, when they unscript is
Speaker 1: what I've called the book Unscript. The radical act of
Speaker 1: being yourself. Being yourself is going to become harder and
Speaker 1: harder for the next couple years because we're opting out
Speaker 1: so much of our voice and what to say and
Speaker 1: what to think, increasingly to AI. It's a lot of
Speaker 1: fake people online influences fake and also AI slop as well.
Speaker 1: And so the book is called Unscript. Written it with
Speaker 1: one aim in mind that actually it helps you get
Speaker 1: excited about having better conversations because our lives are a
Speaker 1: series of conversations, and how we talk to each other
Speaker 1: is actually the quality of our lives as how we
Speaker 1: connect with each other. And I do think we're drifting
Speaker 1: apart from each other. And the joy of doing radio
Speaker 1: is that it's real time connection and its authentic connection.
Speaker 1: So the book is really that I hope that you
Speaker 1: enjoy how to have better conversations and true deeper connection
Speaker 1: wherever you are on your lives. So that actually, I
Speaker 1: think for a lot of people, everyone knows how to speak,
Speaker 1: but there are certain situations where speaking becomes tricky and
Speaker 1: normally an old story you have about something somebody said
Speaker 1: to you once or something where you felt shame and
Speaker 1: you don't want to feel that again. I was coaching
Speaker 1: someone last year who just wanted to have the courage
Speaker 1: to ask a question on a team's meeting that was
Speaker 1: public speaking to her, it's hard these days, isn't it.
Speaker 1: Put your hand up and ask a question. You're frightened
Speaker 1: of looking forwarlish But it keeps us locked away, it
Speaker 1: keeps us imprisoned. We think it keeps us safe, which
Speaker 1: is why we develop all these different scripts and a mask.
Speaker 1: But at some moment, that mask in that script that
Speaker 1: cape us to kep you safe like it did for
Speaker 1: me for years, will actually imprison you. And so I
Speaker 1: made a decision to stop performing a version of myself
Speaker 1: mccaugh become more and more myself and the radio that's
Speaker 1: been the last eight or nine years, especially since I
Speaker 1: moved here. The great news about that is it involves
Speaker 1: a hell of a lot of effort, and actually you
Speaker 1: realize that true connection, the best conversations you've ever had
Speaker 1: with your family and friends and your partners, you will
Speaker 1: have left that conversation where it felt there were no
Speaker 1: calories spent. It's effortless, you said, I think, oh my god,
Speaker 1: have we really been talking for four hours? There was
Speaker 1: no striving, there's no performance. And so that's what that's
Speaker 1: what I've seen that in Patsy. I've seen that in Rio.
Speaker 1: Since I've been working with you guys and helping you guys,
Speaker 1: is where you were Patsy eight years ago and where
Speaker 1: you are now. It's been an incredible thing to witness
Speaker 1: as well as if you've become closer to yourself, and
Speaker 1: I ready producer Kitlin as well, where she was now
Speaker 1: and the bouncing ball of energy. She is running this
Speaker 1: team and running the show as well along with you.
Speaker 1: Are you both as well as your journey of becoming
Speaker 1: more yourself and shedding those masks.
Speaker 5: Absolutely, And I think that when you talk about when
Speaker 5: you're talking about you in the car, I think about
Speaker 5: a song that he'd home with me is a Ben
Speaker 5: Folds one?
Speaker 6: The best imitation of yourself?
Speaker 1: Yes, is that?
Speaker 6: And I remember hearing that and.
Speaker 5: Thinking about maybe three or four years ago, that is
Speaker 5: exactly the way I feel. And then yeah, like the
Speaker 5: last three or four years, just feeling like you don't
Speaker 5: have to put on an act or listen to those
Speaker 5: voices inside your head and just be yourself and that
Speaker 5: that's enough.
Speaker 6: Mate. I can't wait to read this book. I'm so
Speaker 6: proud of you.
Speaker 1: Will don't thank you. The book comes out in July.
Speaker 1: You might think, bloody el Christians April. Why are you
Speaker 1: talking about it now? It's out for pre order. If
Speaker 1: you're go on book Topia and Amazon, you'll find it there.
Speaker 1: The reason is is that I'm talking about you now,
Speaker 1: is that if you are going to get it, please
Speaker 1: do me favor buy it on pre order. The reason
Speaker 1: is is all the bookshops look at pre orders to
Speaker 1: decide whether or not they're going to stock copies of
Speaker 1: your book. And so right now someone were thinking, who
Speaker 1: the hell is this guy and he's going on the radio.
Speaker 1: I can't see them being a big demand for his
Speaker 1: life story about how to connect deep with people. They
Speaker 1: look at the pre orders. If there are good pre orders,
Speaker 1: the book's going to be more easy if you'd buy
Speaker 1: when it comes out. And I promise you I've put
Speaker 1: everything I know about connection that the book is full
Speaker 1: of stories of me basically screwing it up so that
Speaker 1: you don't have to. It's thirty years of stumbling at
Speaker 1: home and on air, many stories that you don't have
Speaker 1: to make, the horrible, messy mistakes that I've made as well.
Speaker 1: And on the messiness, there isn't a single perfect radio
Speaker 1: show I've ever done, and I don't ever want to
Speaker 1: try and do one. This show is all over the place,
Speaker 1: and I'm sure you agree it is the better for it,
Speaker 1: because actually the messiness is where the magic is. All
Speaker 1: the stories we get from listeners. The last hour of
Speaker 1: these stories about what you used to think posh was
Speaker 1: when you were a kid, it's that messiness that's what
Speaker 1: being a human is. And then the next couple of years,
Speaker 1: what's being a human? What's real and what isn't human?
Speaker 1: With AI, it's going to get harder and harder. So
Speaker 1: the real invitation is to double down on what being
Speaker 1: a human is. Being a human isn't about being per
Speaker 1: It's about being messy. It's that inner wido that we
Speaker 1: all have, and you will have a lot better life
Speaker 1: when you embrace your inner wido. That's what I should
Speaker 1: have called the book, but it's called in unscript. Now,
Speaker 1: if you go and pre order the book book Topia
Speaker 1: or Amazon, it really helps me out and as a
Speaker 1: favor and a thank you, the one thing I'm going
Speaker 1: to be doing is I'm going to be doing a
Speaker 1: whole load of these. These are going to be live
Speaker 1: YouTube shows that I'll only be going to be doing
Speaker 1: for my pre order pals. So if you pre order
Speaker 1: the book and you send me your receipt email it
Speaker 1: to me Christian at Christian O'Connor dot com dot au,
Speaker 1: you'll be invited to some very unique part book club
Speaker 1: part whatever it will be. It'll be live from my house,
Speaker 1: meet with a couple of wines, unscript and uncork it'll
Speaker 1: be called at Home with Christian from my home to yours,
Speaker 1: but that will only be for my pre order pals.
Speaker 1: So if you're getting the book, please pre order it
Speaker 1: and have a look anyway, read about it online, have
Speaker 1: a look on Amazon or book Topia as well. You
Speaker 1: can pre order it there. It's called unscript And when
Speaker 1: you do get the book, most importantly, I hope you
Speaker 1: get something from it. I hope you actually stop reading
Speaker 1: it halfway through, throw it across the room and then
Speaker 1: go and have a conversation or tell a story in
Speaker 1: a different way you haven't done before. Thank you enjoyed
Speaker 1: today's show to.

Speaker 10: an empty house. My daughter was at school, my husband
Speaker 10: was at the office yesterday, so I had the whole
Speaker 10: house to myself, and I was rather tired, and I thought,
Speaker 10: you know what, it's going to be a perfect day
Speaker 10: for a little nanny nap, just a cheeky little nanna nap.
Speaker 10: No one will be in mind.
Speaker 1: How long do you get now? I set time enough
Speaker 1: for no more than half an hour. I used to
Speaker 1: do two hours, and that's dreadful.
Speaker 10: I do two hours.
Speaker 1: How do you fel afterwards?
Speaker 10: Fantastic?
Speaker 1: Do you all right?
Speaker 11: No?
Speaker 1: I used to feel just drained. Do you Yeah? I
Speaker 1: would just not take calls for an hour. I tell people,
Speaker 1: don't ever call between three and four. That's not my sleep,
Speaker 1: that's me recovering from the sleep.
Speaker 6: Two hours is a full, full sleep.
Speaker 1: Your body starts to go in a sort of shut
Speaker 1: down mode as well. I think sleep is.
Speaker 10: Coming yeah, that three to four hour I find the
Speaker 10: hardest these hours, isn't it. It's like kind of feels
Speaker 10: like five, like you're walking over broken.
Speaker 6: Glass or something.
Speaker 1: It is. The book publisher said, hey, we've got this
Speaker 1: amazing opportunity if you did with this book thing. When
Speaker 1: your book comes out and at the game of the
Speaker 1: day it's sort swinging three and four. I can't do that.
Speaker 1: I said, No one's buying a book from that guy.
Speaker 1: They were like what, And I explained. They were like, okay,
Speaker 1: we'll move it. There's a ten am, ten thirty, eleven
Speaker 1: twelve that's still in the good So the butteres got
Speaker 1: thirty percent left, so you can make an international call.
Speaker 1: But you're not downloading any new apps exactly. Okay.
Speaker 10: Anyway, I got home and I made myself a lovely
Speaker 10: sandwich and I thought, off, I go. I had my
Speaker 10: pajamas on.
Speaker 1: It you watch anything on TV. First of all, I.
Speaker 10: Didn't even turn the Telly on. I was straight for bed.
Speaker 10: I even made myself a little heat bag for my back.
Speaker 10: I thought, this is going to be fantastic. I've been
Speaker 10: looking for.
Speaker 1: This is a high level napping. This is great.
Speaker 10: Yeah, it was brilliant, drew the curtains. It was very dark.
Speaker 10: Oh it was so good, like a bear cave. And
Speaker 10: then the doorbell went and I thought, I'm not expecting
Speaker 10: any packages. What do I do? Do I ignore it?
Speaker 10: And they were very persistent, funny hell to the door,
Speaker 10: and there was a tradesman standing there. He goes, Oh, hi,
Speaker 10: I'm here to put your phone line in for the internet.
Speaker 10: Your husband called me.
Speaker 1: What someone you're instilled in the landline dial up patch
Speaker 1: has taken it to dial up.
Speaker 10: No, I just needed another point in Chris's office. But Chris,
Speaker 10: for my husband, did not tell me there was a
Speaker 10: tradesman coming.
Speaker 1: And I said, oh god, you must have been filthy.
Speaker 1: And I guess you were in your ninety as well.
Speaker 1: The face cream was on the handnecks, cumbers, rollers in
Speaker 1: their hair.
Speaker 10: Anyway, I said, he didn't remind me. I didn't realize.
Speaker 10: I said, Hell, is this like a quick job? He said, oh,
Speaker 10: you know, a couple of hours or bringing.
Speaker 1: Into the land job.
Speaker 6: Oh no, it's not a quiet job either.
Speaker 10: It wasn't in the roof. The dogs were barking. It
Speaker 10: was just ridiculous. I thought, I can't send him away
Speaker 10: like Chris's booked him. It's a part of his routine.
Speaker 10: I'm not going to do that to him. So needless
Speaker 10: to say, my window closed, slam shut. Oh noday slammed
Speaker 10: shut and shut at the clue.
Speaker 1: So you've had no nap, no nap. Oh now we
Speaker 1: have to pay a very heavy and napchack has just
Speaker 1: been served on us. Oh no, Pats, go on, I'm

Speaker 1: retired and then went through a succession of seriously twelve
Speaker 1: other jobs. He just couldn't. It wasn't good for him.
Speaker 1: And now he is retired, retired, and he was doing
Speaker 1: jobs that he had no business doing. My dad gets
Speaker 1: a stress with an abundance of joy. He needs to
Speaker 1: step away from too much joy. He took a job
Speaker 1: right at seventy three at a children's amusement park, and
Speaker 1: I said, hey, listen, they don't need seven crust the
Speaker 1: old seventy three where I was like you, they're getting moody. Okay,
Speaker 1: there'd be an incident, okay, you yelling at a kid,
Speaker 1: sure enough, and then a week'd quit just said the
Speaker 1: noise there, it's a children's it's a noise. It's a
Speaker 1: noise of joy.
Speaker 6: Yes, it's joy.
Speaker 1: It's not noise, it's joy.
Speaker 6: What did he do with the amusement part?
Speaker 1: Oh my god, you talk about like the wrong person
Speaker 1: for certain people. He was the guy that was meant
Speaker 1: to be going up the people like queueing to get in, saying, hey,
Speaker 1: you're only about forty five minutes and you're in, and
Speaker 1: so he just and all the kids were like, you know,
Speaker 1: and so the kids is irritating you. In his lunch break,
Speaker 1: he would just drive off from the amusement park, find
Speaker 1: a lay by someone have his lunch, and just get
Speaker 1: so stressed about going back to the children's amusement par Okay,
Speaker 1: So Debbie, good luck. Let us know are you retiring
Speaker 1: and retiring? Retiring or easing your way into it? Also,
Speaker 1: I want to know how old you are. What do

Speaker 1: when you go yeah, yeah, no, I'm retired and plan
Speaker 1: you're young and only fifty two, you're thinking they got
Speaker 1: some kind of fat cap buy out. They invested in shares, something,
Speaker 1: they saw some opportunity. There's some guys mentioned something called
Speaker 1: uber and they gave them a couple of k and
Speaker 1: now it's like paid off.
Speaker 6: One hundred percent.
Speaker 5: I reckon maybe average age seventy five.
Speaker 6: Sixty five?
Speaker 1: Sixty five you're kidding sixty five five?
Speaker 10: You can get the pension at sixty five, I believe,
Speaker 10: is that right? But it depends what you do, Like
Speaker 10: if you're a trade like a concrete or a bricklayer,
Speaker 10: like really hard physical Yeah, do that to your seventy
Speaker 10: seventy five Shira, Yeah, yeah, you're back.
Speaker 1: Suddenly went for shaer one, we'reever file away from farm jobs.
Speaker 1: But it's just like, perhaps you haven't concrete to trade
Speaker 1: e Sharer the three most common jo like I always
Speaker 1: think it's not the ones you see on the board game.
Speaker 1: Guess who are you? Malcolm the sheer Malco today? Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: someone just messaged me. You didn't put your name on this,
Speaker 1: but they're three word weeks so far? Impressive dumpster fire?
Speaker 1: Was that today's show? I'm happy with that. I aspire
Speaker 1: every single day. My dreamers they get out of bed.
Speaker 1: It's for another impressive dumpster fire of a radio show.
Speaker 1: Real what's your three word weeks so far?
Speaker 5: New statement piece? And I'm keen to get your guys
Speaker 5: thoughts on this. We haven't taken our Christmas tree down
Speaker 5: since last year?
Speaker 6: Why April? I know it's one hundred and twenty five May.
Speaker 1: Perhaps May this weekend? Oh yeah, that's my that's not
Speaker 1: a statement piece. It says you've given up all your
Speaker 1: like students, We just sort.
Speaker 6: Of we never got around to it.
Speaker 5: There's never a good time to take down the Christmas
Speaker 5: there is afternoon.
Speaker 1: It's always something better to only work a half day.
Speaker 1: Let's be honest, you work a half day, take it
Speaker 1: down this afternoon. You've got no.
Speaker 6: Excuse, no no, But now it's like now I take
Speaker 6: it down.
Speaker 5: Now I've got to put it up in a couple
Speaker 5: of weeks anyway, for Christmas anyone.
Speaker 6: And it's a good talking point.
Speaker 5: We had people over last Saturday and they're like, oh Christmas.
Speaker 1: Dress, that's what they say to you. And you know,
Speaker 1: I always think there's two conversations when people come around
Speaker 1: to yours, right, there's the one they have to and
Speaker 1: then the real conversation, which I always thinks should be
Speaker 1: a podcast, is that uber ride home the debrief The debrief, Wow,
Speaker 1: we aren't those the best bits of the night? What
Speaker 1: you say?
Speaker 8: Then?
Speaker 1: I always think there should be a TV show just
Speaker 1: literally people from all over the world get getting an
Speaker 1: uber or taxi home from some event and where they go,
Speaker 1: what the hell was she wearing? And she had some
Speaker 1: work done? Not great either, not great.
Speaker 10: I always get in trouble from my family because I,
Speaker 10: while I loved it, I love Christmas is we all know.
Speaker 10: And the tree goes up on Melbourne Cup Day. Soon
Speaker 10: Boxing Day comes and they actually like protested last Christmas
Speaker 10: they said that's it because Boxing Day boxes come out.
Speaker 10: I'm ready to put had enough of it, I'm ready
Speaker 10: to put it away.
Speaker 1: You know, my wife's just saying she loves Christmas. And
Speaker 1: then the moment that is six sing boxing day, it's
Speaker 1: over real quick boxing. It loses it shine real quick
Speaker 1: for my wife. She wants to get Christy to throw
Speaker 1: the tree out of the house. But what did it
Speaker 1: do wrong, Like it's a bad family member or something,
Speaker 1: showing the door kick to the curb.
Speaker 6: Well, I'm scared to invite Sarah over. Now what she's
Speaker 6: going to think, throw.
Speaker 1: That tea out there? Yeah, sure, she'd throw that out
Speaker 1: the window. That Christmas tree also, I just think it
Speaker 1: just the only time you see them up now, are
Speaker 1: in really cheap hotels trying to sort of add some
Speaker 1: fake a chair. Or airports around the world. You know
Speaker 1: there's always a Christmas tree someone like a Singapore airport. Yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: there's always a Christmas tree there. Yeah. Yeah, that's so.
Speaker 1: You think it's a statement piece.
Speaker 5: Now, I think it's evolved into a sort of bold
Speaker 5: fashion choice, a daycor decision that we've made.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Look, if you're out in John or something like
Speaker 1: that liber art shack, get it, you're not I don't.
Speaker 5: Think it's quirky, it's flair. Maybe Architecture Digests might come
Speaker 5: over and do a little special.
Speaker 1: On our as a of hipster. Yeah, actually that's a compliment.
Speaker 1: Yeah no, faux hipster, Alex. What's your three words? Wednesday?
Speaker 1: Found my wallet and you never gave up. You believed
Speaker 1: it would come home. I just kept searching.
Speaker 9: The search never ended, Christian, and I found it under
Speaker 9: the stairs in my son's, my four year old son's
Speaker 9: little preschool kindergarten bag.
Speaker 1: Oh he's part of a gang, as he must be.
Speaker 1: They're in Patsy's Gone News a lot, aren't that at
Speaker 1: the moment, the Gangs of Melbourne, they get them young.
Speaker 1: Now it'd be five bombing shops next machetes.
Speaker 6: And I didn't care what you're doing.
Speaker 1: You been seeing your bank account. I don't know what's
Speaker 1: going on. One of those cloning card machines under his
Speaker 1: bed as well, Daddy. I'm working for mister big promotion
Speaker 1: this weekend. That's what you're I'm running my own vape
Speaker 1: store the black market. Dad, It's very little. Was everything there,
Speaker 1: the cards, everything was there.

Speaker 1: I'd love to do that. My wife and I always
Speaker 1: talking about doing that. And Christian we've been listening to
Speaker 1: the show from twenty twenty nine, so you're in the future, bloody,
Speaker 1: we're still going Oh my god, wow. I think maybe
Speaker 1: mid twenty nineteen from Melbourne, Aubrey Wodonga and camera in Theory.
Speaker 1: I retired Becausetian last April, but got bored waiting for
Speaker 1: my husband retired from forty plus years in the army
Speaker 1: in the infantry, so I took a small job operating
Speaker 1: theaters at Port Macquarie. We picked up a new caravan
Speaker 1: and Ford Ranger super duty in Canberra mid May, planned
Speaker 1: to do a very slow big lap with our two
Speaker 1: mid aged dogs. We will still be listening on the
Speaker 1: iHeart app using our starlings. Yeah, so I got one
Speaker 1: of these starlings. It's incredible, is that the Tesla one?
Speaker 11: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, but they are a lot of friends of mine
Speaker 1: who have boats and that they've taken them all over
Speaker 1: the world. Wow. And you can still get satellite receptions,
Speaker 1: so she will she will be able to listen to us.
Speaker 1: I think we just track how they get on.
Speaker 6: Would love that.
Speaker 1: Could we have regular updates? You know what they call this?
Speaker 1: Is it gran nomads?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: When the carriers wanted to track one of them, like
Speaker 1: what happens, what they see and what do they do?
Speaker 1: So many bits of Australia we don't even know about,
Speaker 1: and that you've never met anyone who's ever been there,
Speaker 1: because the last parts of Australia are all pushed to
Speaker 1: the edge, aren't they. All the cities are shoved out
Speaker 1: to the edge. There's this big bit mega bit in
Speaker 1: the middle that's about half the planet that we're never
Speaker 1: going to go to We don't know about what are
Speaker 1: they going to see. I don't know what I saw
Speaker 1: yesterday that I've never seen before in my life. A pelican.
Speaker 10: Oh really, you've never seen a pelican?
Speaker 1: Well? Seeing them kind of like kazooba in the wild.
Speaker 1: They're not native to the UK, obviously, they're normally for
Speaker 1: very hot countries. They normally are around deserts. They're not
Speaker 1: going to mean the UK. They shouldn't be here. It
Speaker 1: doesn't make sense plans desert.
Speaker 8: Know.
Speaker 6: I looked at it.
Speaker 1: It doesn't belong here. How is it here in Australia?
Speaker 1: I don't know. And you know there's certain stuff that
Speaker 1: the palms brought over them. Yeah, this open cage were
Speaker 1: going to go off, you go go and destroyings. Yeah,
Speaker 1: this whole list of them. It's kind of a reverse arc,
Speaker 1: that's what That's what we did. But surely the pelicans
Speaker 1: shouldn't be here. How did it end up here? I
Speaker 1: don't have that native to Australia.
Speaker 6: I don't think it's native.
Speaker 1: But how did it get here? Someone actually introduced it.
Speaker 1: I was looking at this pelican right and there were
Speaker 1: a couple of other people. I was just walking my
Speaker 1: dog and there were a couple of other dog walkers
Speaker 1: there and it was just the bay yesterday was just
Speaker 1: still as a milk on It was beautiful, okay, like
Speaker 1: sheet of glass. You could just walk out too. About
Speaker 1: four o'clock yesterday and there were other bystanders just staring
Speaker 1: at this one loan pelican. It was with no other pelican.
Speaker 1: A seagull came down and sort of was opposite him,
Speaker 1: like checking him out, like who you with? What tribe?
Speaker 1: I don't know what they were saying, but they look
Speaker 1: like having a conversation of some description for a minute
Speaker 1: to two and then the pelican just took flight. Amaze,
Speaker 1: amazing thing to see the huge too, yeah, massive with
Speaker 1: that big distinctive bill. Yes, it's not a pleasing word
Speaker 1: to say, it's distinctive bill. Anyway. What was it doing alone?
Speaker 1: How do they get here? Ken confirm then native to Australia?
Speaker 1: Are they really just googled?
Speaker 6: Yeah, mister, thank you brillion pelicans?
Speaker 1: Yes, you're right? And where do they normally hang out
Speaker 1: at the beach? I have never seen one at Newcastle
Speaker 1: And there's always always pelicans like.
Speaker 10: Or actually heaps of them. There's never like really just
Speaker 10: a lone one.
Speaker 1: But that's what I felt sorry for. Why is he alone? Yeah,
Speaker 1: maybe that's why that text message dream bubble burst. She
Speaker 1: also saw that lone Pelican. Where was he flying to
Speaker 1: find his friends? What has he been thrown aside by
Speaker 1: the family, you know, lion king? What's he done get
Speaker 1: cast aside from the Pelican tribe?
Speaker 4: I need to know you are Christian O'Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 1: Christian, thank you very much to Chan. You just sent
Speaker 1: me a link to Wikipedia. It is apparently good luck
Speaker 1: to see a lone white Pelican. It reminds us of
Speaker 1: loyalty and friendship and goodness knows and breakfast radio. You're
Speaker 1: finding neither of those Patsy, get those knives out of
Speaker 1: my back again, Christian. My mum loved Pelicans. Used to
Speaker 1: call every one of the mister Percival reference to the
Speaker 1: nineteen seventies movie you've seen storm Boy, classic beautiful movie.
Speaker 1: It is a classic patch. Yeah. They're very symbolic to me.
Speaker 1: In my family, we lost mum in twenty ten, so
Speaker 1: whenever we come across a pell a Pelican, we always
Speaker 1: feel Mama's presence. My wife is like that with rainbows.
Speaker 1: Her mum love rainbows. I know what that's like. Callan Christian?
Speaker 1: Did you know this? Pelicans to regulate? I didn't know
Speaker 1: you knew so much about pelicans. I just saw when
Speaker 1: yesterday first time my life, and now there's a lot
Speaker 1: of Pelican chat coming at me, and I'm here for it,
Speaker 1: Tracy Christian. Pelicans to regulate their body temperature, pull their
Speaker 1: spines through their mouths, oh, enjoy your breakfast, Australia Earth,
Speaker 1: Did I do that?
Speaker 6: It is going to be a better way to regulate
Speaker 6: your temperature?
Speaker 1: On Yeah, And then another another person saying, do you
Speaker 1: know how they breed?
Speaker 6: I don't know.
Speaker 1: Listen to this. Breeding begins with courtship. Like us, The
Speaker 1: female leads potentials potential mates two to eight or more
Speaker 1: around the colony. She's taking them for a little walk.
Speaker 1: As the males follow her. In these walks, they will
Speaker 1: threaten each other while swinging their open bills easy from
Speaker 1: side to side, literally big billing it, big bill energy,
Speaker 1: trying to attrack the female's attention. The males will also
Speaker 1: pick up small lodgers, sticks or dry fish, which they
Speaker 1: toss in the air to catch again, as if to say, hey,
Speaker 1: check this out, well, can that the pelican do this,
Speaker 1: I don't think so. Both sexes perform and they clap
Speaker 1: their bills shut several times a second, and the pounchers
Speaker 1: ripple like a flag and a strong breeze. As the
Speaker 1: courtship parade progresses, the males drop out one by one.
Speaker 1: How do they know to drop it out? I know
Speaker 1: it's like a reality show. Yes, you know what it
Speaker 1: is is Pelican Love Island. I'd watch this Pelican Love Island.
Speaker 1: After one is singled out, courtship period begins in a
Speaker 1: different way. The bill and the pouch of the male
Speaker 1: and female birds changed color dramatically. Forward half the pouch
Speaker 1: becomes bright salmon pink, while the skin of the pouch
Speaker 1: in the throat region turns chrome yellow. Do we know
Speaker 1: this happens unaware al of our sites. It's incredible. Parts
Speaker 1: on the top of the base of the bill changed
Speaker 1: the combot blue. Then a black diagonal stripper appears from
Speaker 1: the base to the tip. Easy. The color changes of
Speaker 1: short duration, the intention subsiding by the time intubation starts.
Speaker 1: That is today's Pelican chat.
Speaker 8: Guys.
Speaker 1: All right, let's move on now too. There are two
Speaker 1: types of people in this world. Christian there are two
Speaker 1: types of people in this world, those that close their
Speaker 1: tabs and those that leave them open. Well, I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna leave them open. Guy on my iPhone four
Speaker 1: hundred and ninety eight open tabs. Oh my, I can
Speaker 1: go back to anything at any time. Now, there's a
Speaker 1: pair of Nike I was looking out five years ago.
Speaker 1: I can open that tab back up.
Speaker 5: Actually, my mate, same discussion like last year, he still
Speaker 5: had a tab up and it searched.
Speaker 6: What is COVID?
Speaker 1: Shut it downtro tabby Patsy. There are two types of
Speaker 1: people in this world.
Speaker 10: There are Christian those who put a T shirt on
Speaker 10: arms first, and those who put it on neck or
Speaker 10: head first.
Speaker 1: I go arms, How do you do that?
Speaker 10: I just put left arm and then I put right arm,
Speaker 10: and then I pick it up over the top of
Speaker 10: my head, whereas my husband will like gather up to
Speaker 10: the neck and put me too over.
Speaker 1: I thought we all did that. You're going through the neck,
Speaker 1: so torso.
Speaker 10: Yes, yeah, head first and then arms, but on the
Speaker 10: opposite maybe because I'm left handed, I don't know. I
Speaker 10: go left, right arm, and then I do the neck
Speaker 10: of the T shirt.
Speaker 1: That seems harder the way you're doing it.
Speaker 10: But that's the way I've always do.
Speaker 6: Do you not get stuck? I feel like you would
Speaker 6: get stuck so easily like that.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, let's do that as a phone after seven.
Speaker 1: You ever got stuck in a piece of clothing. I
Speaker 1: once got stuck in a zip up sort of waterproof thing,
Speaker 1: you know, one you know, only your mates trying to
Speaker 1: pull you out of, and then it gets it gets
Speaker 1: stuck around your latch and it's like Jerry Lee Lewis
Speaker 1: kind of sketch going up, ma'am Martin and actually wedged anything.
Speaker 6: When I have to living my life like this, especially
Speaker 6: if it's wet.
Speaker 1: Where was wet? Was song? It was the perfect storm
Speaker 1: in there? I did.
Speaker 6: You have to cut me out, try to get them.
Speaker 1: You can't do it alone. You've got to sort of
Speaker 1: like limber up your body, you know, like someone insert
Speaker 1: the sleigh, start to get ready to touch your shoulder,
Speaker 1: dislocate the giant all right, after seven this morning, then
Speaker 1: let's do trapped in clothing. But two types of people
Speaker 1: in this world. There are two types of people in
Speaker 1: the world. Okay, there are those I think there are
Speaker 1: those kind of people that understand that steaks should only
Speaker 1: be cooked on the barbecue, and never in a pan
Speaker 1: on the stove top, never.
Speaker 6: In the store.
Speaker 1: Now, talk me through your isn't it It's better on
Speaker 1: the barbecue.
Speaker 6: I like the smokings, but sometimes you get them.
Speaker 1: You think about you go, you go to it and
Speaker 1: looking at a proper kitchen, how they're doing the steaks.
Speaker 1: They're not doing it on a kind of stovetop like that.
Speaker 1: They do it differently. They see it on the stovetop.
Speaker 1: Then they put the pan in the oven.
Speaker 6: Yeah, but that's not on a barbecue.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but they can't go outside. If you saw your chef,
Speaker 1: you know, you're at rock Pool or somewhere, where's her
Speaker 1: bloody going. He's going out there, you know, and suddenly
Speaker 1: there's like ten wembers and he's like chucking it around,
Speaker 1: having a dart out there, and it's like it's done,
Speaker 1: and stuff like that. You're not paying your fifty bucks,
Speaker 1: are you? You want the idea that they're doing something else,
Speaker 1: finessing it. But I think they taste so much better.
Speaker 10: On Oh yeah, the flavor is much yes, like a charcoal.
Speaker 12: Yeah, and that's stripping you get, oh god, the castinogens. Yeah, yeah, yes,
Speaker 12: yum yum, yum yum yum, yummy yum.

Speaker 6: Even though you're saying, author, may where are you right now?
Speaker 1: Whish where you go in clockwise anti clockwise?
Speaker 11: Oh?
Speaker 5: Great question.
Speaker 1: What do people do? There must be a preference and
Speaker 1: are they chasing the sun?
Speaker 5: I remember hearing there's some crazy fact. I think it's shorter.
Speaker 5: It's significantly shorter one way than it is the other way.
Speaker 5: I know that's a great question, but that is true.
Speaker 1: I've heard that really yes, can anyone verify that? Please
Speaker 1: call us? Thirteen fifty five twenty two. Is it shorter
Speaker 1: to do a lap of Australia going left or clockwise
Speaker 1: or anti clockwise and more portly? Why? Christian? This is
Speaker 1: on Debian Nomad reporter. We have never followed the rules
Speaker 1: about much in life, so it won't be north for
Speaker 1: the winter or south in the summer like hundreds of
Speaker 1: other nomads and vans. Questions for other gray nomads or
Speaker 1: younger people that also travel around Australia in all seriances,
Speaker 1: This is a great question. How do you not get fat?
Speaker 1: Every little town has a bakery declaim they have Australia's
Speaker 1: best pie and orphan and a slice, and you feel
Speaker 1: obliged to like, maybe this is actually Australia's best one.
Speaker 1: How we not gonna part on the case. Yes, we
Speaker 1: also follow multiple potato scallop cake appreciation pages on Facebook
Speaker 1: around Australia. So again we're gonna get bigger and bigger.
Speaker 1: It's like Georrs, We're gonna need a bigger caravan, certainly
Speaker 1: in his and hers caravans the bloaters.
Speaker 5: As you go around Australia as well, Potato sculpts are
Speaker 5: called different things in every state.
Speaker 6: Your kidding cakes potato, those gallops, there's another one, Adelaide,
Speaker 6: have some weird one. I've got the answers well to
Speaker 6: the going around Australia Peace?
Speaker 1: Peace?
Speaker 7: What is it?
Speaker 5: Going anti clockwise is technically shorter by twenty to ninety
Speaker 5: meters because you're on the inside left lane rather than
Speaker 5: psych athletics.
Speaker 6: Yeah, because you're going because you're driving.
Speaker 1: Racing about the inside line, even around the Great Southern
Speaker 1: Land exactly.
Speaker 4: That is a great snat Christian Colors Show podcast.
Speaker 1: I mean, the team all just had our flu jabs.
Speaker 1: Thanks for Chemist's warehouse. Patsy, how are you with the needles?
Speaker 10: Yeah, I'm fine.
Speaker 1: You just probably did it yourself. Do you ex give
Speaker 1: me five Actually, I'll get the next five years done now.
Speaker 6: I'll tell you what.
Speaker 10: I steps myself back up trapping a baby and ivy
Speaker 10: extra fullhand and everything. Needles are just like you know,
Speaker 10: getting on a bike.
Speaker 1: That was the old cheap sharer. I hate them. I
Speaker 1: hate needle. Do you like not being a farm land?
Speaker 1: Now you've been through far worse. I have half out
Speaker 1: on those farms.
Speaker 9: Just something like a bit of steel going your arms.
Speaker 1: Steals it at one point seven mill.
Speaker 9: Titanium.
Speaker 1: Take that lancing thing out of me using.
Speaker 9: Which was like, just think of a nice place, and
Speaker 9: I thought of Barley while she did it.
Speaker 1: That you judge producer Caleb being a moga. Where were you?
Speaker 1: I was just getting a nice tattoo. It's getting a
Speaker 1: bin tattoo. Oh seven in a sports bar. It's a
Speaker 1: oh my happy place, oh with other loud Australians.
Speaker 6: You're very brave.
Speaker 1: Yeah you are. Yeah, you get a little bag of
Speaker 1: Alan snakes morning you calebre moning Christian. My name is Caleb,
Speaker 1: and then listen to you guys for five years. Now.
Speaker 1: My partner and I are seven weeks seven months pregnant.
Speaker 1: And when you say your partner and you, let's be honest,
Speaker 1: she's pregnant. There is no WHI she's doing a bit
Speaker 1: of a heavy line. Not unless we need to contact
Speaker 1: all news aging. She's around the world in some new
Speaker 1: miracle way. But your partner is pregnant. You are we are,
Speaker 1: as guys a bystander. You are not pregnant. She is pregnant.
Speaker 1: And I wanted to message you and thank you for
Speaker 1: the show you do every day. Ok, thank you very much.
Speaker 1: And also to ask your advice about being a good dad.
Speaker 1: I think you've been listening for five years, you'll have
Speaker 1: picked it up on not so much the good dad,
Speaker 1: the stories. I don't have any about being a good dad.
Speaker 1: It's the shabby dad. And then you can whatever the
Speaker 1: opposite is of what I did. There's your advice.
Speaker 6: You've got cautionary tale, cautionary tales.
Speaker 1: I am but a causery tale. I can summon up
Speaker 1: in three and Patsy can do hers as well. As
Speaker 1: a great month for me and I used to read
Speaker 1: a lot of the books as well. I think the
Speaker 1: most important things I can sum up in three very
Speaker 1: easy points. One that the thing that normally talks about
Speaker 1: about being a parent is your whole job is to
Speaker 1: enjoy being a parent. A lot of it. They turn
Speaker 1: it into an ordeal and you've got to worry about this.
Speaker 1: I'm so stressful. If you can keep reminding yourself, even
Speaker 1: at the tough times when you're exhaust and overwhelmed by all,
Speaker 1: your job is to enjoy it. It is the greatest
Speaker 1: privilege in life is to be someone's parents. So the
Speaker 1: job is to enjoy them always always always always always
Speaker 1: always always keep them talking the moment those channels of
Speaker 1: communication start to get shut down, don't hang on to
Speaker 1: being who's right and who's wrong. That is a life
Speaker 1: of misery. The most important thing is to keep them
Speaker 1: always talking, especially during the teenages as well. Tough, tougher
Speaker 1: than ever to be a teenager right now in these
Speaker 1: crazy times. Keep them talking. And the other thing is
Speaker 1: never Caleb, never ever stop working on your own bs.
Speaker 1: They see it all. You're always teaching your kids a lesson,
Speaker 1: and they're not always good lessons. How you are with
Speaker 1: your anger, your joy, your dreams of frustration. They are
Speaker 1: watching all of it. So always be working on your
Speaker 1: own inner stuff. Otherwise you pass it on to them.
Speaker 1: Work on your own stuff, or you're just going to
Speaker 1: pass it on to them. The best use of stuff
Speaker 1: you can do is to keep working on your own
Speaker 1: inner stuff, because I'm telling you now, they are mirror.
Speaker 1: They see all of it. My daughters now tracked me
Speaker 1: quicker than my own wife. They know when I'm lying,
Speaker 1: quicker than I do. I remember when the ratings went
Speaker 1: down to third last year and I was trying to
Speaker 1: tell them. They were, oh my god, are you going
Speaker 1: to get sacked? Are we going to be homeless? Are
Speaker 1: you going to a bit of pain against university? Like
Speaker 1: a press conference? I was getting really stressed. I was going,
Speaker 1: it doesn't matter, and they were going, we don't believe you.
Speaker 1: There's no way you don't think it does matter. It
Speaker 1: doesn't matter. And then my way of fact, Chris, can
Speaker 1: we have a word. You're trying to tell them that
Speaker 1: you're okay with this? Yeah, I was okay to go
Speaker 1: back out, Patsy, Well, but how would you summon up?
Speaker 10: I've just got to say, you just talking like that
Speaker 10: is so inspiration for me as a mum, with you know,
Speaker 10: keeping the communication lines open.
Speaker 1: That so true that my mums have to work so
Speaker 1: much harder. No, I can be I'm not trying to
Speaker 1: be fake monest My wife works far harder as a
Speaker 1: parent than I do. And I think even Chris, your
Speaker 1: husband would agree with that as well. Mums, No, no, no,
Speaker 1: mums are the sense of the whole thing.
Speaker 10: I think initially definitely, But what I would say to
Speaker 10: our listener is.
Speaker 1: Particularly within you, p please call them Caleb brother, thank you.
Speaker 10: Sorry I forgot Caleb's name. Congratulations.
Speaker 1: You don't know who I am right now? She's a mom,
Speaker 1: not to think about instinct.
Speaker 10: Follow your instinct. You have this newborn. There's no guide book.
Speaker 10: You don't know what the hell you're doing. Your boobs
Speaker 10: are leaking. Everything's happening. You're not sleeping.
Speaker 1: Caleb's boobs are leaking. Go see a doctor, Go to
Speaker 1: chemists warehouse. They've got patches.
Speaker 10: Follow your instinct and you do know what to do.
Speaker 10: I can remember with Audrey, she was crying. I had
Speaker 10: she was a colligy baby, she was six weeks prem
Speaker 10: It was all happening. It was five years in the making,
Speaker 10: you know, infertility, and I finally had this baby, and
Speaker 10: I felt like I'd had this massive, big run up
Speaker 10: to being a mum. And suddenly I remember one day
Speaker 10: I really didn't feel like I knew what I was doing,
Speaker 10: and my mother came up to help, just to release
Speaker 10: so I could go and have a shower, and she said,
Speaker 10: just keep calm.
Speaker 1: You do know what you're doing.
Speaker 10: Follow your instinct. But Mom, I don't have an instinct,
Speaker 10: and she said, you do. It's inside of you. And
Speaker 10: you know, don't listen to what anyone.
Speaker 1: Else for your mum, hand generation to.
Speaker 10: You, angel, angel, and don't listen to what what might
Speaker 10: work for someone else, doesn't necessarily work for you. And
Speaker 10: the other thing, the third and last thing I would say.
Speaker 10: A maternal nurse said to me, I'd picked Audrey up,
Speaker 10: and she said, I'll be careful with that. Don't nurse
Speaker 10: her too much. So you know, it's all don't do this,
Speaker 10: don't do this, you should be doing that. I wish
Speaker 10: I hadn't have listened to that, because now, even though
Speaker 10: she's nearly fifteen, I would give my left leg to
