00:00:03,920 --> 00:00:06,640
Speaker 1: Christian A fill of rage as a fourteen year old idiot,

3
00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:11,479
Speaker 1: I put my foot through mum's terrarium. That was a

4
00:00:11,520 --> 00:00:16,319
Speaker 1: gift from my nat, from my sister. Why did I

5
00:00:16,400 --> 00:00:18,479
Speaker 1: do this? She turned the TV channel over from the

6
00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:21,160
Speaker 1: six million dollar Man to build Peach on the ABC.

7
00:00:21,920 --> 00:00:24,160
Speaker 1: I was so angry I did that. It still haunts

8
00:00:24,239 --> 00:00:33,600
Speaker 1: me many years versus foot. Terrarium is what a word

9
00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:33,959
Speaker 1: as well?

10
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:37,159
Speaker 2: Getting it right? It's like a fish tank, but a

11
00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,479
Speaker 2: little world where you've got miniature living amongst.

12
00:00:40,760 --> 00:00:41,080
Speaker 3: Yes.

13
00:00:41,440 --> 00:00:43,840
Speaker 1: Yeah, when was the last time you even said out

14
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:46,920
Speaker 1: loud the word terrarium? I don't think I even said

15
00:00:46,920 --> 00:00:50,440
Speaker 1: it even to the song. Was pronouncing it in my mind.

16
00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:55,280
Speaker 1: You know, I guess it's terrarrium. There's been no reason

17
00:00:55,280 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 1: in my life, so I think, age of fifty, this

18
00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:00,640
Speaker 1: is who I am now, terrarium man. See my dad

19
00:01:00,680 --> 00:01:03,880
Speaker 1: a video recording of my brother playing the organ in church.

20
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:08,240
Speaker 1: He was so proud. Who wouldn't be? Who wouldn't be?

21
00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:11,240
Speaker 1: I recorded a queen concert over it broke my dad.

22
00:01:11,440 --> 00:01:17,000
Speaker 1: Oh No, Christian. In the mid eighties, when I was

23
00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:21,760
Speaker 1: about seven, I put my dad's beloved vinyl collection and

24
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:29,000
Speaker 1: made it into a row skate these nice shiny discs.

25
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,320
Speaker 1: You can imagine the scene, can't you? In the thought process?

26
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:38,440
Speaker 1: Ay presto and in nor rolla skating with that poor

27
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:41,080
Speaker 1: dad coming home from work for some factory job he

28
00:01:41,160 --> 00:01:43,720
Speaker 1: never wanted to do in life. A stick on one

29
00:01:43,800 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 1: of my Jimmy Bard's albums. Oh and then everything can

30
00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:54,000
Speaker 1: be what Greg Curney christ When I was seventeen, my

31
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:56,800
Speaker 1: mom had dads in sixteen hundred that I accidentally drove

32
00:01:56,840 --> 00:01:59,640
Speaker 1: into a tree. The bumper bar didn't bend, but it

33
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 1: cracked right down the middle. Scared of the consequence, I

34
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,440
Speaker 1: didn't tell any one. Weeks later, my dad was service

35
00:02:04,480 --> 00:02:06,920
Speaker 1: in the car. You know, just it. He blamed my mom.

36
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:11,480
Speaker 1: She denied it. So the spotlight turned to me. Wow, Greg,

Speaker 4: In a panic, I glued on with now a glue

60
00:03:16,320 --> 00:03:19,160
Speaker 4: and it's stuck there for eight years. Luckily to me.

61
00:03:19,800 --> 00:03:22,600
Speaker 4: Everyone knew about it, but nobody said anything about it.

62
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:25,720

00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,360
Speaker 4: the corner of the chip's bench, and then they.

72
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:56,680

76
00:04:08,960 --> 00:04:13,000
Speaker 2: on the record player, trying to scratch records like.

77
00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:18,120
Speaker 1: Mixed Master, like the Beastie Boys exactly, but on one

78
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:19,680
Speaker 1: of your dad's records, not your own.

79
00:04:20,040 --> 00:04:23,320
Speaker 2: My dad loved this seventies rock band called UFO, so

80
00:04:23,360 --> 00:04:24,599
Speaker 2: I would scratch the Ufo.

81
00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:33,559
Speaker 1: I've never heard of them. Sounds good though before Motley Cruz,

82
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:34,720
Speaker 1: so early glamorrock.

83
00:04:36,600 --> 00:04:39,960
Speaker 2: But the way he carried on about that stylist.

84
00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:42,320
Speaker 1: Being black again, you don't mix great stuff like that.

85
00:04:42,320 --> 00:04:44,800
Speaker 1: That's not nice, No, sir, How.

86
00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:46,960
Speaker 2: Much does a replacement style of cost? Because made it

87
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:48,080
Speaker 2: sound like a year's.

88
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:52,680
Speaker 1: L old man. The stylus is everything, It's the most

89
00:04:52,720 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 1: important part. It's like an expensive mont Blanc fountain panel

90
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:56,440
Speaker 1: or something down and.

91
00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:58,839
Speaker 2: Then after that we weren't allowed to touch the entertainment

92
00:04:58,880 --> 00:04:59,839
Speaker 2: system ever again.

93
00:05:00,080 --> 00:05:03,280
Speaker 1: At home iers was also called the entertainment system as well. Patsy,

00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:05,040
Speaker 1: what did you break you mum or Dad's We.

95
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:08,880
Speaker 5: Had big sliding glass doors in our kitchen. One day,

96
00:05:09,160 --> 00:05:11,400
Speaker 5: my brothers and I thought we'd play indoor cricket, so

97
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 5: we used a cake of soap as the ball and.

98
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 1: They already soft, aren't they earn?

99
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:19,000
Speaker 5: Sponge like and the role of glad wrappers the bat,

100
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:22,560
Speaker 5: and of course the wicket was the window, so the

101
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,400
Speaker 5: cake of soap went right through the windows smashed it.

102
00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:29,520
Speaker 5: Mum and Dad were furious because it cost hundreds of massive.

103
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:34,000
Speaker 1: Big and everything was so expensive. They worked, so that's it, hard,

104
00:05:34,240 --> 00:05:34,560
Speaker 1: that's it.

105
00:05:34,640 --> 00:05:37,240
Speaker 2: We had a back window break one time from a football.

106
00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:40,800
Speaker 2: It would have been covered with cardboard for six months.

107
00:05:40,960 --> 00:05:43,440
Speaker 5: Well they just got it covered with the insurance, and

108
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,080
Speaker 5: then two weeks later we did it again a second time,

109
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,160
Speaker 5: ball the same cake of soap. Yes, so we were

110
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:52,799
Speaker 5: barred from any sport inside the house.

111
00:05:52,839 --> 00:05:54,200
