1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:04,280
Speaker 1: Christ Yeah, welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

2
00:00:04,680 --> 00:00:06,960
Speaker 1: All right, Yesterday on the show, we were having a

3
00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:09,440
Speaker 1: raging debate about you need to get rid of one

4
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:12,360
Speaker 1: from the cutlery drawer after I've stopped using a knife

5
00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:13,680
Speaker 1: quite a lot now when I eat.

6
00:00:14,360 --> 00:00:15,840
Speaker 2: We were asking you whether you need to get rid

7
00:00:15,840 --> 00:00:20,040
Speaker 2: of the knife, spoon or fork. Big scenes on the phones.

8
00:00:20,079 --> 00:00:22,960
Speaker 2: Yesterday the fork came up under a lot of criticism.

9
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:25,160
Speaker 3: Couldn't believe it. I thought it'd be the spoon. Again,

10
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:27,440
Speaker 3: I didn't use a spoon all of yesterday, so I

11
00:00:27,520 --> 00:00:29,520
Speaker 3: thought I was right in saying that the spoon should go,

12
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:31,880
Speaker 3: but the listeners thought it was the fork. I've got

13
00:00:31,880 --> 00:00:34,840
Speaker 3: an apology to make to you. Actually, yesterday on the show,

14
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,400
Speaker 3: in the heat of the moment and that debate, I said,

15
00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:40,080
Speaker 3: we eat peas all the time.

16
00:00:40,159 --> 00:00:44,400
Speaker 1: Yeah, you went full Dean Boxel screaming about peas, you know,

17
00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,160
Speaker 1: grabbing hold of the desks, gyrating aggressively.

18
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:49,120
Speaker 3: You said only old people eat peas. I said, we

19
00:00:49,159 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 3: eat peas all the time.

20
00:00:50,200 --> 00:00:52,280
Speaker 1: And there and the key word I'm surprised about was

21
00:00:52,320 --> 00:00:53,960
Speaker 1: all the time. And I thought, well, maybe you do.

22
00:00:54,560 --> 00:00:58,440
Speaker 3: After the show once it's all calmed down, And for Garci,

23
00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:03,280
Speaker 3: I thought, well, that was having feared Christian because we

24
00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:06,200
Speaker 3: actually don't eat peas all the time. We never eat peas.

25
00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:08,880
Speaker 1: Because I was even trying to think, actually, what would

26
00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:09,959
Speaker 1: you be having peas with.

27
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:13,400
Speaker 3: I've never prepared peas. No, I don't think our kitchen

28
00:01:13,480 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 3: has ever prepared peas. I've only ever eaten peas, maybe

29
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:19,880
Speaker 3: if they're part of a special fried rice from an

30
00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,319
Speaker 3: aging takeaway, But in the last five years, I don't

31
00:01:23,319 --> 00:01:25,640
Speaker 3: think we've ever prepared peas in our kitchen.

32
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:29,200
Speaker 2: And as a kid, peace I just have peas appear

33
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:31,560
Speaker 2: to be a staple diet of mine the eighties.

34
00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:33,959
Speaker 3: As a kid, peas were on every plane, no matter

35
00:01:34,040 --> 00:01:34,559
Speaker 3: what you're having.

36
00:01:34,600 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 1: My parents wanted some belief that were some sort of

37
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:40,320
Speaker 1: super food. Nothing against the piece, but every day peas

38
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:42,880
Speaker 1: are on that plate. I actually thought they always build

39
00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,440
Speaker 1: every tea for me while we start with the peace,

40
00:01:45,480 --> 00:01:48,320
Speaker 1: then we build around that, but the peas demand to

41
00:01:48,400 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 1: be number one pie.

42
00:01:49,280 --> 00:01:51,000
Speaker 2: Then the MVP are the peas on the plate.

43
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:53,560
Speaker 3: Peas and mashed potato were part of Oh my god.

44
00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,560
Speaker 1: You know these days you get quite fancy mashed potato

45
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:01,000
Speaker 1: garlic and truffle.

46
00:02:01,480 --> 00:02:03,320
Speaker 2: They still can't have it, so I think it's been

47
00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:04,760
Speaker 2: force fed as a kid.

48
00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:07,400
Speaker 3: And all it was was mashed potato, no butter, no salt, No.

49
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 2: My mum would mix milk into it.

50
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:14,040
Speaker 1: So there was this horrible, soggy, mashy mountain surrounded by

51
00:02:14,080 --> 00:02:15,320
Speaker 1: bodyguards of peace.

52
00:02:17,320 --> 00:02:19,520
Speaker 3: I think that's what Oliver twist.

53
00:02:20,280 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 2: More cruel, please mummy.

54
00:02:23,160 --> 00:02:27,280
Speaker 1: So the question remains, do we think pea consumption is

55
00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:28,840
Speaker 1: on the is dwining?

56
00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:31,920
Speaker 3: Has peas peaked when we were kids and they don't

57
00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 3: get eaten anymore?

58
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,600
Speaker 2: Is it time for us to re examine the humble pea?

59
00:02:35,880 --> 00:02:36,720
Speaker 2: I think you're right.

60
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 3: I don't think people are eating peas anymore.

61
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:39,440
Speaker 2: I think they are.

62
00:02:39,639 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 1: I think you can age someone by the how they

63
00:02:41,880 --> 00:02:42,799
Speaker 1: feel about peace.

64
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:45,280
Speaker 2: I believe that the older folks are.

65
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,079
Speaker 1: Still They're gonna be on the phones going. I can't

66
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,799
Speaker 1: believe this was three a W ten lines going. Now

67
00:02:49,800 --> 00:02:52,679
Speaker 1: we have pea dessert, we have pea ice cream, or

68
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:54,280
Speaker 1: you know, we love peace.

69
00:02:54,360 --> 00:02:55,440
Speaker 2: I think it's younger people.

70
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:57,680
Speaker 3: So is the question we're asking how old are you?

71
00:02:57,720 --> 00:02:58,880
Speaker 3: And are you eating peas?

72
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:00,920
Speaker 2: I think it's rude to well someone how old they are.

73
00:03:01,000 --> 00:03:01,600
Speaker 2: We can guess.

74
00:03:01,720 --> 00:03:03,480
Speaker 1: I think we can just guess whether sound their voice,

75
00:03:03,520 --> 00:03:04,760
Speaker 1: what kind of age cutgo they are?

76
00:03:04,840 --> 00:03:05,800
Speaker 3: Are you still eating peas?

77
00:03:05,880 --> 00:03:11,480
Speaker 2: I used to eating peas? Was worn?

78
00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:13,880
Speaker 1: If we see Jack and I were talking about knife,

79
00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:15,920
Speaker 1: spoon fork, if one of them has to go, which

80
00:03:15,919 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 1: one and why? And I was saying how I've stopped

81
00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,320
Speaker 1: using a knife so much and just going with a

82
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:23,360
Speaker 1: spoon and fur. Let's not get into that now. It

83
00:03:23,360 --> 00:03:25,600
Speaker 1: confused a lot of pop yesterday. I'll keep I just

84
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:27,800
Speaker 1: keep it quiet. I thought there'll be loads of other

85
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:28,919
Speaker 1: people were going, yeah, me too.

86
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,440
Speaker 2: For once. Everyone's like, I don't know what you're talking about.

87
00:03:31,560 --> 00:03:32,239
Speaker 2: Are you for real?

88
00:03:32,280 --> 00:03:32,560
Speaker 4: We need?

89
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:35,520
Speaker 2: Yes, we know. However, I'm still sticking to it.

90
00:03:35,720 --> 00:03:37,960
Speaker 1: But in it we were talking about Jack Star saying

91
00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,680
Speaker 1: about how you need certain things to shovel up peas,

92
00:03:40,960 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 1: and I'm really queried how often you have in peas

93
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 1: as an adult? I cannot When the kids were younger,

94
00:03:46,480 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 1: sure we used to give them a lot of peas,

95
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:50,160
Speaker 1: mushy pieces and all that, but an adult now, I

96
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:51,360
Speaker 1: haven't had peas in years.

97
00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:53,240
Speaker 3: To double down on the argument, I said, we eat

98
00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,800
Speaker 3: peas on all the time, all the time, which isn't true.

99
00:03:55,800 --> 00:03:58,400
Speaker 3: We never have peas, and I only really have them

100
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,320
Speaker 3: if they're part of a fried rice or when I

101
00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:02,240
Speaker 3: was a kid, they were served up every night next

102
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:03,080
Speaker 3: to the mashed potato.

103
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:05,640
Speaker 2: So we're curious this morning. Maybe we've got this wrong.

104
00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:08,360
Speaker 1: Maybe peas are still wildly popular out there, okay, and

105
00:04:08,360 --> 00:04:10,360
Speaker 1: all the different ones, the sweet peas, your garden peas

106
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:13,320
Speaker 1: produce of Mel, who occasionally comes running in here when

107
00:04:13,360 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 1: I've got something wrong about.

108
00:04:14,720 --> 00:04:20,760
Speaker 2: Doctor who the most laid back person on the show. Right.

109
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:23,479
Speaker 1: Our audio producer mele but lost the head with me

110
00:04:23,560 --> 00:04:26,480
Speaker 1: when I made some offhand comment sibody did it?

111
00:04:26,640 --> 00:04:29,080
Speaker 2: Did I say benmcumber match was dr.

112
00:04:28,960 --> 00:04:31,240
Speaker 3: Tat No, but pretty much forced you to go on

113
00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 3: and make it on an apology.

114
00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 1: I've here apologized about anything in twenty odd years of radio.

115
00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 2: I did about or two because I was scared of Mel.

116
00:04:37,640 --> 00:04:39,840
Speaker 1: Anyway, She's come flying in from one of her occasional

117
00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:41,320
Speaker 1: visits today defending peas.

118
00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:43,480
Speaker 2: Mel, what do you want to say about the peace?

119
00:04:44,040 --> 00:04:46,480
Speaker 4: Uh, They're delicious and as a kid, I used to

120
00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:48,200
Speaker 4: eat them frozen as a snack.

121
00:04:48,920 --> 00:04:51,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a kid. Because it's easy to be conned

122
00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:53,200
Speaker 1: this is a delicious snack. As an adult, when you

123
00:04:53,200 --> 00:04:55,919
Speaker 1: have more awareness, you realize that isn't a delicious snack.

124
00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:57,160
Speaker 1: I could do it anytime.

125
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:58,520
Speaker 2: What's still now? Peace?

126
00:04:58,800 --> 00:04:59,360
Speaker 3: Delicious?

127
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:00,640
Speaker 2: Not straight out of the frozen bag?

128
00:05:00,960 --> 00:05:01,200
Speaker 4: Yep.

129
00:05:01,279 --> 00:05:03,159
Speaker 3: Now you must have been one of those kids whose

130
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:06,279
Speaker 3: parents didn't have ice cream or any sugar TV and

131
00:05:06,360 --> 00:05:09,680
Speaker 3: you didn't know what a nice, yummy thing was. I

132
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:12,120
Speaker 3: would say that except for a Milo obviously, I'm like

133
00:05:12,200 --> 00:05:14,120
Speaker 3: a four spooner of a glass of Milo.

134
00:05:13,960 --> 00:05:16,520
Speaker 1: So I didn't know what at there with some pea

135
00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:18,159
Speaker 1: to wash it, a pea chaser.

136
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:21,159
Speaker 2: All right, let's go to the lines. Craig, Good morning,

137
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:23,480
Speaker 2: morning Christian.

138
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:23,960
Speaker 4: How are you?

139
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:25,560
Speaker 2: I'm good, buddy, peace.

140
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:29,560
Speaker 4: Please absolutely, my family goes through a full kilo of

141
00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 4: frozen piece a week.

142
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,120
Speaker 1: I don't know what you are single handedly keeping the

143
00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 1: Australian Pea community funded.

144
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 2: Wow, we'll speak.

145
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 4: Well speaking single handling. It's of all the youngest member

146
00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 4: of my family, my youngest seven year old daughter, Jessica,

147
00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:47,680
Speaker 4: she eats probably eighteen to ninety percent of them, and

148
00:05:47,760 --> 00:05:52,160
Speaker 4: like mel frozen, she has them for lunch, dinner, snacks,

149
00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:53,920
Speaker 4: you name it. She even tried a couple of times

150
00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:55,320
Speaker 4: to take it to school, but of course they're not

151
00:05:55,360 --> 00:05:57,839
Speaker 4: frozen by the time she got the school, but she

152
00:05:58,480 --> 00:05:59,440
Speaker 4: goes to town on them.

153
00:05:59,640 --> 00:06:01,839
Speaker 2: H I think you might need to inventure there.

154
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:05,400
Speaker 1: You're doing up the school playground, you know when people

155
00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:07,680
Speaker 1: offer ound nice snacks and cool stuffing like hanging on

156
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:09,240
Speaker 1: to the teacher. But they've I've got to get some

157
00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:11,599
Speaker 1: frozen pies. Some of these are Marrow fans as well,

158
00:06:11,760 --> 00:06:13,560
Speaker 1: so I'll just keep it on the low fight, all right.

159
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:19,360
Speaker 2: She's a key with Craig. Thank you very much. You cool.

160
00:06:19,440 --> 00:06:22,760
Speaker 2: Have a good week, Neil, Good morning.
