WEBVTT - MINI: Peas

0:00:00.560 --> 0:00:04.280
<v Speaker 1>Christ Yeah, welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

0:00:04.680 --> 0:00:06.960
<v Speaker 1>All right, Yesterday on the show, we were having a

0:00:07.280 --> 0:00:09.440
<v Speaker 1>raging debate about you need to get rid of one

0:00:09.560 --> 0:00:12.360
<v Speaker 1>from the cutlery drawer after I've stopped using a knife

0:00:12.440 --> 0:00:13.680
<v Speaker 1>quite a lot now when I eat.

0:00:14.360 --> 0:00:15.840
<v Speaker 2>We were asking you whether you need to get rid

0:00:15.840 --> 0:00:20.040
<v Speaker 2>of the knife, spoon or fork. Big scenes on the phones.

0:00:20.079 --> 0:00:22.960
<v Speaker 2>Yesterday the fork came up under a lot of criticism.

0:00:23.000 --> 0:00:25.160
<v Speaker 3>Couldn't believe it. I thought it'd be the spoon. Again,

0:00:25.200 --> 0:00:27.440
<v Speaker 3>I didn't use a spoon all of yesterday, so I

0:00:27.520 --> 0:00:29.520
<v Speaker 3>thought I was right in saying that the spoon should go,

0:00:29.600 --> 0:00:31.880
<v Speaker 3>but the listeners thought it was the fork. I've got

0:00:31.880 --> 0:00:34.840
<v Speaker 3>an apology to make to you. Actually, yesterday on the show,

0:00:35.360 --> 0:00:38.400
<v Speaker 3>in the heat of the moment and that debate, I said,

0:00:38.640 --> 0:00:40.080
<v Speaker 3>we eat peas all the time.

0:00:40.159 --> 0:00:44.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you went full Dean Boxel screaming about peas, you know,

0:00:44.840 --> 0:00:47.160
<v Speaker 1>grabbing hold of the desks, gyrating aggressively.

0:00:47.280 --> 0:00:49.120
<v Speaker 3>You said only old people eat peas. I said, we

0:00:49.159 --> 0:00:50.080
<v Speaker 3>eat peas all the time.

0:00:50.200 --> 0:00:52.280
<v Speaker 1>And there and the key word I'm surprised about was

0:00:52.320 --> 0:00:53.960
<v Speaker 1>all the time. And I thought, well, maybe you do.

0:00:54.560 --> 0:00:58.440
<v Speaker 3>After the show once it's all calmed down, And for Garci,

0:01:01.040 --> 0:01:03.280
<v Speaker 3>I thought, well, that was having feared Christian because we

0:01:03.320 --> 0:01:06.200
<v Speaker 3>actually don't eat peas all the time. We never eat peas.

0:01:06.760 --> 0:01:08.880
<v Speaker 1>Because I was even trying to think, actually, what would

0:01:08.920 --> 0:01:09.959
<v Speaker 1>you be having peas with.

0:01:10.280 --> 0:01:13.400
<v Speaker 3>I've never prepared peas. No, I don't think our kitchen

0:01:13.480 --> 0:01:17.520
<v Speaker 3>has ever prepared peas. I've only ever eaten peas, maybe

0:01:17.640 --> 0:01:19.880
<v Speaker 3>if they're part of a special fried rice from an

0:01:19.959 --> 0:01:23.319
<v Speaker 3>aging takeaway, But in the last five years, I don't

0:01:23.319 --> 0:01:25.640
<v Speaker 3>think we've ever prepared peas in our kitchen.

0:01:26.000 --> 0:01:29.200
<v Speaker 2>And as a kid, peace I just have peas appear

0:01:29.280 --> 0:01:31.560
<v Speaker 2>to be a staple diet of mine the eighties.

0:01:31.680 --> 0:01:33.959
<v Speaker 3>As a kid, peas were on every plane, no matter

0:01:34.040 --> 0:01:34.559
<v Speaker 3>what you're having.

0:01:34.600 --> 0:01:36.640
<v Speaker 1>My parents wanted some belief that were some sort of

0:01:36.640 --> 0:01:40.320
<v Speaker 1>super food. Nothing against the piece, but every day peas

0:01:40.360 --> 0:01:42.880
<v Speaker 1>are on that plate. I actually thought they always build

0:01:42.920 --> 0:01:45.440
<v Speaker 1>every tea for me while we start with the peace,

0:01:45.480 --> 0:01:48.320
<v Speaker 1>then we build around that, but the peas demand to

0:01:48.400 --> 0:01:49.240
<v Speaker 1>be number one pie.

0:01:49.280 --> 0:01:51.000
<v Speaker 2>Then the MVP are the peas on the plate.

0:01:51.080 --> 0:01:53.560
<v Speaker 3>Peas and mashed potato were part of Oh my god.

0:01:57.200 --> 0:01:59.560
<v Speaker 1>You know these days you get quite fancy mashed potato

0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:01.000
<v Speaker 1>garlic and truffle.

0:02:01.480 --> 0:02:03.320
<v Speaker 2>They still can't have it, so I think it's been

0:02:03.440 --> 0:02:04.760
<v Speaker 2>force fed as a kid.

0:02:04.680 --> 0:02:07.400
<v Speaker 3>And all it was was mashed potato, no butter, no salt, No.

0:02:07.640 --> 0:02:09.520
<v Speaker 2>My mum would mix milk into it.

0:02:09.600 --> 0:02:14.040
<v Speaker 1>So there was this horrible, soggy, mashy mountain surrounded by

0:02:14.080 --> 0:02:15.320
<v Speaker 1>bodyguards of peace.

0:02:17.320 --> 0:02:19.520
<v Speaker 3>I think that's what Oliver twist.

0:02:20.280 --> 0:02:22.200
<v Speaker 2>More cruel, please mummy.

0:02:23.160 --> 0:02:27.280
<v Speaker 1>So the question remains, do we think pea consumption is

0:02:27.320 --> 0:02:28.840
<v Speaker 1>on the is dwining?

0:02:28.960 --> 0:02:31.920
<v Speaker 3>Has peas peaked when we were kids and they don't

0:02:31.919 --> 0:02:32.840
<v Speaker 3>get eaten anymore?

0:02:33.080 --> 0:02:35.600
<v Speaker 2>Is it time for us to re examine the humble pea?

0:02:35.880 --> 0:02:36.720
<v Speaker 2>I think you're right.

0:02:36.800 --> 0:02:38.720
<v Speaker 3>I don't think people are eating peas anymore.

0:02:38.760 --> 0:02:39.440
<v Speaker 2>I think they are.

0:02:39.639 --> 0:02:41.880
<v Speaker 1>I think you can age someone by the how they

0:02:41.880 --> 0:02:42.799
<v Speaker 1>feel about peace.

0:02:43.360 --> 0:02:45.280
<v Speaker 2>I believe that the older folks are.

0:02:45.240 --> 0:02:47.079
<v Speaker 1>Still They're gonna be on the phones going. I can't

0:02:47.120 --> 0:02:49.799
<v Speaker 1>believe this was three a W ten lines going. Now

0:02:49.800 --> 0:02:52.679
<v Speaker 1>we have pea dessert, we have pea ice cream, or

0:02:52.720 --> 0:02:54.280
<v Speaker 1>you know, we love peace.

0:02:54.360 --> 0:02:55.440
<v Speaker 2>I think it's younger people.

0:02:55.480 --> 0:02:57.680
<v Speaker 3>So is the question we're asking how old are you?

0:02:57.720 --> 0:02:58.880
<v Speaker 3>And are you eating peas?

0:02:59.000 --> 0:03:00.920
<v Speaker 2>I think it's rude to well someone how old they are.

0:03:01.000 --> 0:03:01.600
<v Speaker 2>We can guess.

0:03:01.720 --> 0:03:03.480
<v Speaker 1>I think we can just guess whether sound their voice,

0:03:03.520 --> 0:03:04.760
<v Speaker 1>what kind of age cutgo they are?

0:03:04.840 --> 0:03:05.800
<v Speaker 3>Are you still eating peas?

0:03:05.880 --> 0:03:11.480
<v Speaker 2>I used to eating peas? Was worn?

0:03:11.520 --> 0:03:13.880
<v Speaker 1>If we see Jack and I were talking about knife,

0:03:13.880 --> 0:03:15.920
<v Speaker 1>spoon fork, if one of them has to go, which

0:03:15.919 --> 0:03:19.200
<v Speaker 1>one and why? And I was saying how I've stopped

0:03:19.280 --> 0:03:21.320
<v Speaker 1>using a knife so much and just going with a

0:03:21.360 --> 0:03:23.360
<v Speaker 1>spoon and fur. Let's not get into that now. It

0:03:23.360 --> 0:03:25.600
<v Speaker 1>confused a lot of pop yesterday. I'll keep I just

0:03:25.680 --> 0:03:27.800
<v Speaker 1>keep it quiet. I thought there'll be loads of other

0:03:27.840 --> 0:03:28.919
<v Speaker 1>people were going, yeah, me too.

0:03:29.200 --> 0:03:31.440
<v Speaker 2>For once. Everyone's like, I don't know what you're talking about.

0:03:31.560 --> 0:03:32.239
<v Speaker 2>Are you for real?

0:03:32.280 --> 0:03:32.560
<v Speaker 4>We need?

0:03:32.960 --> 0:03:35.520
<v Speaker 2>Yes, we know. However, I'm still sticking to it.

0:03:35.720 --> 0:03:37.960
<v Speaker 1>But in it we were talking about Jack Star saying

0:03:38.000 --> 0:03:40.680
<v Speaker 1>about how you need certain things to shovel up peas,

0:03:40.960 --> 0:03:43.680
<v Speaker 1>and I'm really queried how often you have in peas

0:03:44.000 --> 0:03:46.280
<v Speaker 1>as an adult? I cannot When the kids were younger,

0:03:46.480 --> 0:03:48.080
<v Speaker 1>sure we used to give them a lot of peas,

0:03:48.160 --> 0:03:50.160
<v Speaker 1>mushy pieces and all that, but an adult now, I

0:03:50.160 --> 0:03:51.360
<v Speaker 1>haven't had peas in years.

0:03:51.480 --> 0:03:53.240
<v Speaker 3>To double down on the argument, I said, we eat

0:03:53.280 --> 0:03:55.800
<v Speaker 3>peas on all the time, all the time, which isn't true.

0:03:55.800 --> 0:03:58.400
<v Speaker 3>We never have peas, and I only really have them

0:03:58.400 --> 0:04:00.320
<v Speaker 3>if they're part of a fried rice or when I

0:04:00.360 --> 0:04:02.240
<v Speaker 3>was a kid, they were served up every night next

0:04:02.280 --> 0:04:03.080
<v Speaker 3>to the mashed potato.

0:04:03.200 --> 0:04:05.640
<v Speaker 2>So we're curious this morning. Maybe we've got this wrong.

0:04:05.720 --> 0:04:08.360
<v Speaker 1>Maybe peas are still wildly popular out there, okay, and

0:04:08.360 --> 0:04:10.360
<v Speaker 1>all the different ones, the sweet peas, your garden peas

0:04:10.720 --> 0:04:13.320
<v Speaker 1>produce of Mel, who occasionally comes running in here when

0:04:13.360 --> 0:04:14.840
<v Speaker 1>I've got something wrong about.

0:04:14.720 --> 0:04:20.760
<v Speaker 2>Doctor who the most laid back person on the show. Right.

0:04:20.839 --> 0:04:23.479
<v Speaker 1>Our audio producer mele but lost the head with me

0:04:23.560 --> 0:04:26.480
<v Speaker 1>when I made some offhand comment sibody did it?

0:04:26.640 --> 0:04:29.080
<v Speaker 2>Did I say benmcumber match was dr.

0:04:28.960 --> 0:04:31.240
<v Speaker 3>Tat No, but pretty much forced you to go on

0:04:31.279 --> 0:04:32.520
<v Speaker 3>and make it on an apology.

0:04:32.800 --> 0:04:35.440
<v Speaker 1>I've here apologized about anything in twenty odd years of radio.

0:04:35.520 --> 0:04:37.320
<v Speaker 2>I did about or two because I was scared of Mel.

0:04:37.640 --> 0:04:39.840
<v Speaker 1>Anyway, She's come flying in from one of her occasional

0:04:39.880 --> 0:04:41.320
<v Speaker 1>visits today defending peas.

0:04:41.960 --> 0:04:43.480
<v Speaker 2>Mel, what do you want to say about the peace?

0:04:44.040 --> 0:04:46.480
<v Speaker 4>Uh, They're delicious and as a kid, I used to

0:04:46.560 --> 0:04:48.200
<v Speaker 4>eat them frozen as a snack.

0:04:48.920 --> 0:04:51.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's a kid. Because it's easy to be conned

0:04:51.120 --> 0:04:53.200
<v Speaker 1>this is a delicious snack. As an adult, when you

0:04:53.200 --> 0:04:55.919
<v Speaker 1>have more awareness, you realize that isn't a delicious snack.

0:04:56.160 --> 0:04:57.160
<v Speaker 1>I could do it anytime.

0:04:57.360 --> 0:04:58.520
<v Speaker 2>What's still now? Peace?

0:04:58.800 --> 0:04:59.360
<v Speaker 3>Delicious?

0:04:59.360 --> 0:05:00.640
<v Speaker 2>Not straight out of the frozen bag?

0:05:00.960 --> 0:05:01.200
<v Speaker 4>Yep.

0:05:01.279 --> 0:05:03.159
<v Speaker 3>Now you must have been one of those kids whose

0:05:03.279 --> 0:05:06.279
<v Speaker 3>parents didn't have ice cream or any sugar TV and

0:05:06.360 --> 0:05:09.680
<v Speaker 3>you didn't know what a nice, yummy thing was. I

0:05:09.680 --> 0:05:12.120
<v Speaker 3>would say that except for a Milo obviously, I'm like

0:05:12.200 --> 0:05:14.120
<v Speaker 3>a four spooner of a glass of Milo.

0:05:13.960 --> 0:05:16.520
<v Speaker 1>So I didn't know what at there with some pea

0:05:16.680 --> 0:05:18.159
<v Speaker 1>to wash it, a pea chaser.

0:05:18.480 --> 0:05:21.159
<v Speaker 2>All right, let's go to the lines. Craig, Good morning,

0:05:22.800 --> 0:05:23.480
<v Speaker 2>morning Christian.

0:05:23.520 --> 0:05:23.960
<v Speaker 4>How are you?

0:05:24.080 --> 0:05:25.560
<v Speaker 2>I'm good, buddy, peace.

0:05:26.200 --> 0:05:29.560
<v Speaker 4>Please absolutely, my family goes through a full kilo of

0:05:29.640 --> 0:05:30.880
<v Speaker 4>frozen piece a week.

0:05:31.040 --> 0:05:33.120
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what you are single handedly keeping the

0:05:33.120 --> 0:05:36.120
<v Speaker 1>Australian Pea community funded.

0:05:37.600 --> 0:05:38.760
<v Speaker 2>Wow, we'll speak.

0:05:38.920 --> 0:05:42.440
<v Speaker 4>Well speaking single handling. It's of all the youngest member

0:05:42.480 --> 0:05:45.000
<v Speaker 4>of my family, my youngest seven year old daughter, Jessica,

0:05:45.200 --> 0:05:47.680
<v Speaker 4>she eats probably eighteen to ninety percent of them, and

0:05:47.760 --> 0:05:52.160
<v Speaker 4>like mel frozen, she has them for lunch, dinner, snacks,

0:05:52.240 --> 0:05:53.920
<v Speaker 4>you name it. She even tried a couple of times

0:05:53.960 --> 0:05:55.320
<v Speaker 4>to take it to school, but of course they're not

0:05:55.360 --> 0:05:57.839
<v Speaker 4>frozen by the time she got the school, but she

0:05:58.480 --> 0:05:59.440
<v Speaker 4>goes to town on them.

0:05:59.640 --> 0:06:01.839
<v Speaker 2>H I think you might need to inventure there.

0:06:02.160 --> 0:06:05.400
<v Speaker 1>You're doing up the school playground, you know when people

0:06:05.440 --> 0:06:07.680
<v Speaker 1>offer ound nice snacks and cool stuffing like hanging on

0:06:07.839 --> 0:06:09.240
<v Speaker 1>to the teacher. But they've I've got to get some

0:06:09.240 --> 0:06:11.599
<v Speaker 1>frozen pies. Some of these are Marrow fans as well,

0:06:11.760 --> 0:06:13.560
<v Speaker 1>so I'll just keep it on the low fight, all right.

0:06:16.360 --> 0:06:19.360
<v Speaker 2>She's a key with Craig. Thank you very much. You cool.

0:06:19.440 --> 0:06:22.760
<v Speaker 2>Have a good week, Neil, Good morning.

0:06:23.160 --> 0:06:28.640
<v Speaker 5>Morning girls up. Long time call listener, first time caller. Yes,

0:06:28.920 --> 0:06:31.120
<v Speaker 5>I love my peas or have them with a stake

0:06:31.320 --> 0:06:34.960
<v Speaker 5>twice a week and exactly like Mel, said a five

0:06:35.000 --> 0:06:38.000
<v Speaker 5>year old daughter Mayer, relavating the frozen as well.

0:06:38.520 --> 0:06:40.680
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, my kids went through this phase, right. Don't you

0:06:40.720 --> 0:06:43.160
<v Speaker 1>also find that whenever you're clearing up or hoovering up

0:06:43.560 --> 0:06:46.560
<v Speaker 1>ninety nine point nine up peace on the floor, they

0:06:46.600 --> 0:06:48.719
<v Speaker 1>flicked on there. I think they like getting them because

0:06:48.720 --> 0:06:50.320
<v Speaker 1>they can just roll them up and flick them.

0:06:50.320 --> 0:06:52.200
<v Speaker 3>That's why kids like Why are they so popular to

0:06:52.200 --> 0:06:55.279
<v Speaker 3>give to children? Because they are the messiest food. It's

0:06:55.279 --> 0:06:57.320
<v Speaker 3>hard as an adult to pick up peace my kids.

0:06:57.320 --> 0:06:58.640
<v Speaker 5>You said, very true.

0:06:58.839 --> 0:07:00.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, did you also do your kids love this is?

0:07:00.680 --> 0:07:02.839
<v Speaker 1>If you just mush them all up into some kind

0:07:02.839 --> 0:07:05.200
<v Speaker 1>of ball, they'll eat that happily while watching TV.

0:07:05.680 --> 0:07:08.000
<v Speaker 5>Yes they will. Yes, it's just a I think it's

0:07:08.000 --> 0:07:08.960
