00:00:36,245 --> 00:00:39,005
Speaker 3: Welcome to the weekend. That's I think that's an appropriate response.

9
00:00:39,085 --> 00:00:40,925
Speaker 1: Thank you. Yeah, do I throw it back to you?

10
00:00:41,684 --> 00:00:47,324
Speaker 1: Welcome here, seemly say Chanks, Alex, Happy Friday. We're going

11
00:00:47,365 --> 00:00:50,604
Speaker 1: to be okay today. The shark is in the water already.

12
00:00:50,604 --> 00:00:54,365
Speaker 1: Can I just say the shark in the water? All right?

13
00:00:54,685 --> 00:00:57,165
Speaker 1: The first half hour of It'll be Down a Friday,

14
00:00:57,205 --> 00:00:58,885
Speaker 1: we go around the team. We call it double thumbs

15
00:00:58,965 --> 00:01:04,365
Speaker 1: up and the things that we're enjoying this week. Warning, Warning, warning,

16
00:01:04,685 --> 00:01:07,845
Speaker 1: Patsy has brought a physical item, a prop.

17
00:01:08,045 --> 00:01:10,525
Speaker 2: It's always thumb nah, is it?

18
00:01:10,565 --> 00:01:13,405
Speaker 1: I actually think of it the opposite way, all right?

19
00:01:13,445 --> 00:01:15,645
Speaker 1: Two from me. Last week I was talking about Hama

20
00:01:15,645 --> 00:01:18,565
Speaker 1: why wife loves sci Fi, and so we'd start to

21
00:01:18,565 --> 00:01:20,565
Speaker 1: watch Foundation and I wasn't sure if it was getting

22
00:01:20,565 --> 00:01:24,165
Speaker 1: to get any better. It was gobbledygook about Starlock's Terminus

23
00:01:24,285 --> 00:01:26,765
Speaker 1: and eighty seven other planets and soda symptems. I couldn't

24
00:01:26,805 --> 00:01:28,445
Speaker 1: keep up with it all. A lot of you text

25
00:01:28,525 --> 00:01:30,685
Speaker 1: in saying, stay with it. It's brilliant and we have

26
00:01:30,765 --> 00:01:34,525
Speaker 1: stuck it out. It's awesome and you understand it. I do, well, No,

27
00:01:34,525 --> 00:01:37,605
Speaker 1: neither my wife or I understand it. But we're okay now.

28
00:01:37,765 --> 00:01:40,885
Speaker 1: In ignorance, actually, I think is one of the ten

29
00:01:40,925 --> 00:01:44,245
Speaker 1: steps to enlightenment is actually just admitting we know nothing,

30
00:01:44,565 --> 00:01:46,685
Speaker 1: but being happy in that. But no, very very good.

31
00:01:46,965 --> 00:01:49,325
Speaker 1: And the other thing that is back season two of

32
00:01:49,605 --> 00:01:55,165
Speaker 1: the Terminal lists on Prime. Oh my god. Chris Prout, Stearine,

33
00:01:55,205 --> 00:01:57,965
Speaker 1: Taylor Kitsch started in the first season, which was really

34
00:01:57,965 --> 00:02:01,965
Speaker 1: really good. Second season is even better. There's no Chris Pratt.

35
00:02:02,205 --> 00:02:05,165
Speaker 1: He's obviously doing Jurassic Park. So what they have is

36
00:02:05,205 --> 00:02:08,085
Speaker 1: he keeps is this on the phone? Oh right, it's

37
00:02:08,125 --> 00:02:12,084
Speaker 1: pretty it is, and they might they just play his voice.

38
00:02:12,605 --> 00:02:14,445
Speaker 1: What a great way to get a bit of coin,

39
00:02:15,325 --> 00:02:17,645
Speaker 1: you know, can we try that one? You know, Alex

40
00:02:17,725 --> 00:02:20,285
Speaker 1: is near, but he's on the phone right now. That's

41
00:02:20,325 --> 00:02:23,525
Speaker 1: the sports to your team. Chris Patt is in it,

42
00:02:23,605 --> 00:02:25,645
Speaker 1: so you can put it on the posters. He's not

43
00:02:25,925 --> 00:02:29,125
Speaker 1: physically if you see him, he's left the voice smell anyway.

44
00:02:29,165 --> 00:02:33,565
Speaker 1: It's just it's just he's just texted me. Oh, he's

45
00:02:33,605 --> 00:02:36,245
Speaker 1: on these phone calls. And he's obviously in his trader

46
00:02:36,565 --> 00:02:39,245
Speaker 1: on the set of Jurassic Park in that outfit. However,

47
00:02:39,805 --> 00:02:42,045
Speaker 1: that means more Taylor Kitsch and if you're a fellow

48
00:02:42,085 --> 00:02:44,845
Speaker 1: fan of Friday Night Lights, he's an outstanding actor. Even

49
00:02:44,885 --> 00:02:47,405
Speaker 1: better the second season. Really we like it. I love

50
00:02:47,445 --> 00:02:49,325
Speaker 1: the fact if you caught a show lone Wolf, I'm

51
00:02:49,365 --> 00:02:53,525
Speaker 1: all over them. Terminalist lone Wolf, turn out A turn

52
00:02:53,605 --> 00:02:55,245
Speaker 1: from me, Patsy, what are you enjoying?

53
00:02:55,685 --> 00:02:58,605
Speaker 2: A good tip from producer Caitlin which we have tried,

54
00:02:59,085 --> 00:03:01,365
Speaker 2: you know how been doing my chili Kong khn. She

55
00:03:01,605 --> 00:03:04,525
Speaker 2: has found a range of mixes that make it easy

56
00:03:04,685 --> 00:03:08,925
Speaker 2: and they're very very healthy, no preservatives, no nut is

57
00:03:09,005 --> 00:03:12,245
Speaker 2: brilliant for people on Keito like the first Lady, your

58
00:03:12,325 --> 00:03:15,725
Speaker 2: wife or if you're gluten free, you know, because it's

59
00:03:15,805 --> 00:03:18,125
Speaker 2: hard to get stuff that you can have. It's called

60
00:03:18,485 --> 00:03:20,165
Speaker 2: mingle these spice mixers.

61
00:03:20,165 --> 00:03:24,965
Speaker 1: Person, yes, mingle clear and the races today, aren't we.

62
00:03:26,085 --> 00:03:30,605
Speaker 2: We had tacos with him this week yes, Taco Thursday

63
00:03:30,685 --> 00:03:33,725
Speaker 2: or Tuesday Tuesday. Yes, And I don't know if it's

64
00:03:33,805 --> 00:03:36,285
Speaker 2: just me, but the taco case is getting smaller.

65
00:03:36,685 --> 00:03:40,805
Speaker 1: No, no, no, I'm with Patsy. They are Yeah, they're

66
00:03:40,845 --> 00:03:42,925
Speaker 1: making you now upsides to the Jumbo ones.

67
00:03:43,045 --> 00:03:45,845
Speaker 3: Yes, yes, so Jumbo is just a normal size brand.

68
00:03:47,845 --> 00:03:49,405
Speaker 1: Are our hands getting bigger?

69
00:03:49,765 --> 00:03:51,925
Speaker 4: No question?

70
00:03:52,205 --> 00:03:54,725
Speaker 1: You heard it here first. This goes right to the top.

71
00:03:54,765 --> 00:03:58,125
Speaker 1: It's all that four g Now, it's all the nasties

72
00:03:58,165 --> 00:04:01,605
Speaker 1: and the spices. It's making my hands massive.

73
00:04:01,725 --> 00:04:04,565
Speaker 2: Women were making them. It's actually hard to shove the

74
00:04:04,645 --> 00:04:06,485
Speaker 2: filling in between.

75
00:04:10,125 --> 00:04:10,925
Speaker 1: The taco size.

76
00:04:10,965 --> 00:04:12,245
Speaker 3: I say fairly.

77
00:04:12,325 --> 00:04:16,325
Speaker 1: Get that wine my wine glass doesn't mean it was

78
00:04:16,365 --> 00:04:20,525
Speaker 1: my ex a large wine glass getting smaller. Have two

79
00:04:20,565 --> 00:04:25,804
Speaker 1: of those glasses for people glass? What will they shrink next? Honestly?

80
00:04:26,005 --> 00:04:28,765
Speaker 2: The other thing this week is all the cords in

81
00:04:28,885 --> 00:04:32,724
Speaker 2: our teenager's room around her school desk were driving us

82
00:04:32,924 --> 00:04:34,525
Speaker 2: insane and I don't know how much.

83
00:04:35,164 --> 00:04:35,804
Speaker 1: Yes, terrible.

84
00:04:35,885 --> 00:04:39,684
Speaker 2: I have rescued the rumba from the cords. It's eaten

85
00:04:39,685 --> 00:04:41,325
Speaker 2: about two of her to pull.

86
00:04:41,205 --> 00:04:44,125
Speaker 1: The desk over, doesn't it I've had that's really going

87
00:04:44,205 --> 00:04:45,484
Speaker 1: to drag it down the corridor board.

88
00:04:46,005 --> 00:04:47,964
Speaker 2: I thought, that's got to be a better solution. So

89
00:04:48,085 --> 00:04:50,484
Speaker 2: we tried, you know, the power board. The love God

90
00:04:50,645 --> 00:04:52,925
Speaker 2: tried to sort of mount it on the side.

91
00:04:52,724 --> 00:04:56,605
Speaker 1: Of her to an outhousees it was terrible. A teenagers

92
00:04:56,604 --> 00:04:59,245
Speaker 1: should live actually in an outhouse and then come back

93
00:04:59,245 --> 00:04:59,964
Speaker 1: when you're twenty one.

94
00:05:00,164 --> 00:05:03,405
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, I agree. But I found this that came out.

95
00:05:03,804 --> 00:05:07,085
Speaker 2: It's an Rlex brand desk top power station and it's

96
00:05:07,085 --> 00:05:08,004
Speaker 2: specifically for.

97
00:05:08,085 --> 00:05:10,885
Speaker 1: It, and it's a plug on your desk.

98
00:05:12,125 --> 00:05:12,685
Speaker 2: Brilliant though.

99
00:05:12,844 --> 00:05:15,125
Speaker 1: It's actually like chances to Walter Raleig, who's been around

100
00:05:15,164 --> 00:05:17,325
Speaker 1: the world with some amazing.

101
00:05:20,085 --> 00:05:25,165
Speaker 2: It's brilliant. It's great, four points for power and all

102
00:05:25,205 --> 00:05:26,164
Speaker 2: you like for your eye.

103
00:05:27,164 --> 00:05:30,164
Speaker 1: I guess you'd call this a plug multi shopping.

104
00:05:30,404 --> 00:05:31,125
Speaker 2: I've never seen it.

105
00:05:31,525 --> 00:05:31,925
Speaker 3: Have you seen?

106
00:05:32,005 --> 00:05:37,325
Speaker 1: Rio doesn't open you Einstein's no idea. It's struggling with

107
00:05:37,445 --> 00:05:41,244
Speaker 1: that zoomland in that laptop you major in box opening.

108
00:05:42,325 --> 00:05:52,405
Speaker 1: Sorry street smarts, it's because bedroom. Why bring it in though,

109
00:05:52,885 --> 00:05:53,924
Speaker 1: because I need to.

110
00:05:53,964 --> 00:05:56,684
Speaker 2: See the information on the box and what it does,

111
00:05:56,765 --> 00:06:02,764
Speaker 2: because you inevitably would ask stupid questions, got no answer anyway.

112
00:06:03,044 --> 00:06:04,085
Speaker 2: I found it good.

113
00:06:04,364 --> 00:06:05,164
Speaker 1: No, No, it's great.

114
00:06:05,325 --> 00:06:07,085
Speaker 2: You can put it in that little pod thing in

115
00:06:07,164 --> 00:06:07,765
Speaker 2: your backyard?

116
00:06:08,364 --> 00:06:10,885
Speaker 1: How that now? Which is getting me? Just getting a

117
00:06:10,924 --> 00:06:12,844
Speaker 1: new laptop. Let's just move on, all right, we're going

118
00:06:12,885 --> 00:06:14,844
Speaker 1: to take her. I don't want to talk about Let's uh,

119
00:06:16,044 --> 00:06:18,285
Speaker 1: there's take a break. We come back with part two

120
00:06:18,445 --> 00:06:23,245
Speaker 1: of Double Thumbs Up The Christian O'Connell Show podcast. In

121
00:06:23,404 --> 00:06:25,964
Speaker 1: Christian O'Connell Show, we're doing Double thumbs Up. We go

122
00:06:26,085 --> 00:06:29,325
Speaker 1: around the team and we share what we're into this week. Rio,

123
00:06:29,484 --> 00:06:30,085
Speaker 1: what's it for you?

124
00:06:30,284 --> 00:06:32,685
Speaker 3: I've got a couple for you guys. Firstly, we are

125
00:06:32,765 --> 00:06:35,325
Speaker 3: into spring. We are into pollen season.

126
00:06:35,445 --> 00:06:40,525
Speaker 1: Oh you getting into polland issues must have? Oh yeah,

127
00:06:40,604 --> 00:06:44,165
Speaker 1: shout out, I'm really getting into pollend guy. What were

128
00:06:44,205 --> 00:06:47,004
Speaker 1: they shrink? Next? They shrunk it? You know, pollen's.

129
00:06:48,445 --> 00:06:50,765
Speaker 3: It's very hard to get accurate pollen readings on most

130
00:06:50,804 --> 00:06:54,004
Speaker 3: of the major apps. So there is an independent Melbourne

131
00:06:54,284 --> 00:06:56,245
Speaker 3: company called I'm not sure the company is called, but

132
00:06:56,325 --> 00:06:59,605
Speaker 3: the app call is called Melbourne Pollen App and it

133
00:06:59,724 --> 00:07:03,164
Speaker 3: has every day alert of the pollen rating in Melbourne.

134
00:07:03,245 --> 00:07:06,284
Speaker 3: So today the grass pollen rating is low. You don't

135
00:07:06,364 --> 00:07:08,765
Speaker 3: have to worry about it. It sends you a alert

136
00:07:08,844 --> 00:07:09,484
Speaker 3: every morning, so.

137
00:07:09,484 --> 00:07:13,045
Speaker 1: When you wake up you have to a really good idea.

138
00:07:13,205 --> 00:07:13,884
Speaker 1: It's a lifesaver.

139
00:07:13,925 --> 00:07:17,165
Speaker 3: I download it every spring, very very helpful. Put on

140
00:07:17,205 --> 00:07:20,885
Speaker 3: your notifications for it. Second one, I spoke about it

141
00:07:21,085 --> 00:07:24,645
Speaker 3: three weeks ago after watching the first episode of Survivor.

142
00:07:25,845 --> 00:07:31,525
Speaker 3: It is the finale on Sunday and it has been

143
00:07:31,685 --> 00:07:36,445
Speaker 3: an incredible, incredible When it ends, I'm going to be devastated.

144
00:07:36,565 --> 00:07:40,285
Speaker 3: I don't think Australians realize Survivor is so so big.

145
00:07:40,364 --> 00:07:43,525
Speaker 3: It's in forty countries, it's been got fifty in America.

146
00:07:43,565 --> 00:07:45,485
Speaker 1: It is the biggest TV most successful TV show in

147
00:07:45,525 --> 00:07:46,765
Speaker 1: the world. Yeah, it wouldn't surprise me.

148
00:07:46,845 --> 00:07:49,205
Speaker 3: And Australia at the moment is the gold standard of

149
00:07:49,245 --> 00:07:52,085
Speaker 3: Survivor around the world. It's like, yeah, it's revered as

150
00:07:52,125 --> 00:07:55,685
Speaker 3: like the number one sort of the best players, the

151
00:07:55,765 --> 00:07:59,045
Speaker 3: best strategy, the best Survivor seasons are always Australia.

152
00:07:59,045 --> 00:08:02,365
Speaker 1: At the moment thought that, I know, so, I know

153
00:08:02,405 --> 00:08:03,645
Speaker 1: you would have done sorry, just when I got on

154
00:08:03,725 --> 00:08:06,244
Speaker 1: the passport, I would have thought that. Actually, yah, yeah

155
00:08:06,245 --> 00:08:08,005
Speaker 1: I knew that. Yeah, it feels right, it feels right.

156
00:08:08,765 --> 00:08:10,925
Speaker 1: Leaders are subject I.
