<v Speaker 1>the weekend Rio. Thank you Patsy, thank you he has

0:00:32.925 --> 0:00:36.205
<v Speaker 1>made it weird. Is great to become aggressive.

0:00:36.245 --> 0:00:39.005
<v Speaker 3>Welcome to the weekend. That's I think that's an appropriate response.

0:00:39.085 --> 0:00:40.925
<v Speaker 1>Thank you. Yeah, do I throw it back to you?

0:00:41.684 --> 0:00:47.324
<v Speaker 1>Welcome here, seemly say Chanks, Alex, Happy Friday. We're going

0:00:47.365 --> 0:00:50.604
<v Speaker 1>to be okay today. The shark is in the water already.

0:00:50.604 --> 0:00:54.365
<v Speaker 1>Can I just say the shark in the water? All right?

0:00:54.685 --> 0:00:57.165
<v Speaker 1>The first half hour of It'll be Down a Friday,

0:00:57.205 --> 0:00:58.885
<v Speaker 1>we go around the team. We call it double thumbs

0:00:58.965 --> 0:01:04.365
<v Speaker 1>up and the things that we're enjoying this week. Warning, Warning, warning,

0:01:04.685 --> 0:01:07.845
<v Speaker 1>Patsy has brought a physical item, a prop.

0:01:08.045 --> 0:01:10.525
<v Speaker 2>It's always thumb nah, is it?

0:01:10.565 --> 0:01:13.405
<v Speaker 1>I actually think of it the opposite way, all right?

0:01:13.445 --> 0:01:15.645
<v Speaker 1>Two from me. Last week I was talking about Hama

0:01:15.645 --> 0:01:18.565
<v Speaker 1>why wife loves sci Fi, and so we'd start to

0:01:18.565 --> 0:01:20.565
<v Speaker 1>watch Foundation and I wasn't sure if it was getting

0:01:20.565 --> 0:01:24.165
<v Speaker 1>to get any better. It was gobbledygook about Starlock's Terminus

0:01:24.285 --> 0:01:26.765
<v Speaker 1>and eighty seven other planets and soda symptems. I couldn't

0:01:26.805 --> 0:01:28.445
<v Speaker 1>keep up with it all. A lot of you text

0:01:28.525 --> 0:01:30.685
<v Speaker 1>in saying, stay with it. It's brilliant and we have

0:01:30.765 --> 0:01:34.525
<v Speaker 1>stuck it out. It's awesome and you understand it. I do, well, No,

0:01:34.525 --> 0:01:37.605
<v Speaker 1>neither my wife or I understand it. But we're okay now.

0:01:37.765 --> 0:01:40.885
<v Speaker 1>In ignorance, actually, I think is one of the ten

0:01:40.925 --> 0:01:44.245
<v Speaker 1>steps to enlightenment is actually just admitting we know nothing,

0:01:44.565 --> 0:01:46.685
<v Speaker 1>but being happy in that. But no, very very good.

0:01:46.965 --> 0:01:49.325
<v Speaker 1>And the other thing that is back season two of

0:01:49.605 --> 0:01:55.165
<v Speaker 1>the Terminal lists on Prime. Oh my god. Chris Prout, Stearine,

0:01:55.205 --> 0:01:57.965
<v Speaker 1>Taylor Kitsch started in the first season, which was really

0:01:57.965 --> 0:02:01.965
<v Speaker 1>really good. Second season is even better. There's no Chris Pratt.

0:02:02.205 --> 0:02:05.165
<v Speaker 1>He's obviously doing Jurassic Park. So what they have is

0:02:05.205 --> 0:02:08.085
<v Speaker 1>he keeps is this on the phone? Oh right, it's

0:02:08.125 --> 0:02:12.084
<v Speaker 1>pretty it is, and they might they just play his voice.

0:02:12.605 --> 0:02:14.445
<v Speaker 1>What a great way to get a bit of coin,

0:02:15.325 --> 0:02:17.645
<v Speaker 1>you know, can we try that one? You know, Alex

0:02:17.725 --> 0:02:20.285
<v Speaker 1>is near, but he's on the phone right now. That's

0:02:20.325 --> 0:02:23.525
<v Speaker 1>the sports to your team. Chris Patt is in it,

0:02:23.605 --> 0:02:25.645
<v Speaker 1>so you can put it on the posters. He's not

0:02:25.925 --> 0:02:29.125
<v Speaker 1>physically if you see him, he's left the voice smell anyway.

0:02:29.165 --> 0:02:33.565
<v Speaker 1>It's just it's just he's just texted me. Oh, he's

0:02:33.605 --> 0:02:36.245
<v Speaker 1>on these phone calls. And he's obviously in his trader

0:02:36.565 --> 0:02:39.245
<v Speaker 1>on the set of Jurassic Park in that outfit. However,

0:02:39.805 --> 0:02:42.045
<v Speaker 1>that means more Taylor Kitsch and if you're a fellow

0:02:42.085 --> 0:02:44.845
<v Speaker 1>fan of Friday Night Lights, he's an outstanding actor. Even

0:02:44.885 --> 0:02:47.405
<v Speaker 1>better the second season. Really we like it. I love

0:02:47.445 --> 0:02:49.325
<v Speaker 1>the fact if you caught a show lone Wolf, I'm

0:02:49.365 --> 0:02:53.525
<v Speaker 1>all over them. Terminalist lone Wolf, turn out A turn

0:02:53.605 --> 0:02:55.245
<v Speaker 1>from me, Patsy, what are you enjoying?

0:02:55.685 --> 0:02:58.605
<v Speaker 2>A good tip from producer Caitlin which we have tried,

0:02:59.085 --> 0:03:01.365
<v Speaker 2>you know how been doing my chili Kong khn. She

0:03:01.605 --> 0:03:04.525
<v Speaker 2>has found a range of mixes that make it easy

0:03:04.685 --> 0:03:08.925
<v Speaker 2>and they're very very healthy, no preservatives, no nut is

0:03:09.005 --> 0:03:12.245
<v Speaker 2>brilliant for people on Keito like the first Lady, your

0:03:12.325 --> 0:03:15.725
<v Speaker 2>wife or if you're gluten free, you know, because it's

0:03:15.805 --> 0:03:18.125
<v Speaker 2>hard to get stuff that you can have. It's called

0:03:18.485 --> 0:03:20.165
<v Speaker 2>mingle these spice mixers.

0:03:20.165 --> 0:03:24.965
<v Speaker 1>Person, yes, mingle clear and the races today, aren't we.

0:03:26.085 --> 0:03:30.605
<v Speaker 2>We had tacos with him this week yes, Taco Thursday

0:03:30.685 --> 0:03:33.725
<v Speaker 2>or Tuesday Tuesday. Yes, And I don't know if it's

0:03:33.805 --> 0:03:36.285
<v Speaker 2>just me, but the taco case is getting smaller.

0:03:36.685 --> 0:03:40.805
<v Speaker 1>No, no, no, I'm with Patsy. They are Yeah, they're

0:03:40.845 --> 0:03:42.925
<v Speaker 1>making you now upsides to the Jumbo ones.

0:03:43.045 --> 0:03:45.845
<v Speaker 3>Yes, yes, so Jumbo is just a normal size brand.

0:03:47.845 --> 0:03:49.405
<v Speaker 1>Are our hands getting bigger?

0:03:49.765 --> 0:03:51.925
<v Speaker 4>No question?

0:03:52.205 --> 0:03:54.725
<v Speaker 1>You heard it here first. This goes right to the top.

0:03:54.765 --> 0:03:58.125
<v Speaker 1>It's all that four g Now, it's all the nasties

0:03:58.165 --> 0:04:01.605
<v Speaker 1>and the spices. It's making my hands massive.

0:04:01.725 --> 0:04:04.565
<v Speaker 2>Women were making them. It's actually hard to shove the

0:04:04.645 --> 0:04:06.485
<v Speaker 2>filling in between.

0:04:10.125 --> 0:04:10.925
<v Speaker 1>The taco size.

0:04:10.965 --> 0:04:12.245
<v Speaker 3>I say fairly.

0:04:12.325 --> 0:04:16.325
<v Speaker 1>Get that wine my wine glass doesn't mean it was

0:04:16.365 --> 0:04:20.525
<v Speaker 1>my ex a large wine glass getting smaller. Have two

0:04:20.565 --> 0:04:25.804
<v Speaker 1>of those glasses for people glass? What will they shrink next? Honestly?

0:04:26.005 --> 0:04:28.765
<v Speaker 2>The other thing this week is all the cords in

0:04:28.885 --> 0:04:32.724
<v Speaker 2>our teenager's room around her school desk were driving us

0:04:32.924 --> 0:04:34.525
<v Speaker 2>insane and I don't know how much.

0:04:35.164 --> 0:04:35.804
<v Speaker 1>Yes, terrible.

0:04:35.885 --> 0:04:39.684
<v Speaker 2>I have rescued the rumba from the cords. It's eaten

0:04:39.685 --> 0:04:41.325
<v Speaker 2>about two of her to pull.

0:04:41.205 --> 0:04:44.125
<v Speaker 1>The desk over, doesn't it I've had that's really going

0:04:44.205 --> 0:04:45.484
<v Speaker 1>to drag it down the corridor board.

0:04:46.005 --> 0:04:47.964
<v Speaker 2>I thought, that's got to be a better solution. So

0:04:48.085 --> 0:04:50.484
<v Speaker 2>we tried, you know, the power board. The love God

0:04:50.645 --> 0:04:52.925
<v Speaker 2>tried to sort of mount it on the side.

0:04:52.724 --> 0:04:56.605
<v Speaker 1>Of her to an outhousees it was terrible. A teenagers

0:04:56.604 --> 0:04:59.245
<v Speaker 1>should live actually in an outhouse and then come back

0:04:59.245 --> 0:04:59.964
<v Speaker 1>when you're twenty one.

0:05:00.164 --> 0:05:03.405
<v Speaker 2>Yes, yes, I agree. But I found this that came out.

0:05:03.804 --> 0:05:07.085
<v Speaker 2>It's an Rlex brand desk top power station and it's

0:05:07.085 --> 0:05:08.004
<v Speaker 2>specifically for.

0:05:08.085 --> 0:05:10.885
<v Speaker 1>It, and it's a plug on your desk.

0:05:12.125 --> 0:05:12.685
<v Speaker 2>Brilliant though.

0:05:12.844 --> 0:05:15.125
<v Speaker 1>It's actually like chances to Walter Raleig, who's been around

0:05:15.164 --> 0:05:17.325
<v Speaker 1>the world with some amazing.

0:05:20.085 --> 0:05:25.165
<v Speaker 2>It's brilliant. It's great, four points for power and all

0:05:25.205 --> 0:05:26.164
<v Speaker 2>you like for your eye.

0:05:27.164 --> 0:05:30.164
<v Speaker 1>I guess you'd call this a plug multi shopping.

0:05:30.404 --> 0:05:31.125
<v Speaker 2>I've never seen it.

0:05:31.525 --> 0:05:31.925
<v Speaker 3>Have you seen?

0:05:32.005 --> 0:05:37.325
<v Speaker 1>Rio doesn't open you Einstein's no idea. It's struggling with

0:05:37.445 --> 0:05:41.244
<v Speaker 1>that zoomland in that laptop you major in box opening.

0:05:42.325 --> 0:05:52.405
<v Speaker 1>Sorry street smarts, it's because bedroom. Why bring it in though,

0:05:52.885 --> 0:05:53.924
<v Speaker 1>because I need to.

0:05:53.964 --> 0:05:56.684
<v Speaker 2>See the information on the box and what it does,

0:05:56.765 --> 0:06:02.764
<v Speaker 2>because you inevitably would ask stupid questions, got no answer anyway.

0:06:03.044 --> 0:06:04.085
<v Speaker 2>I found it good.

0:06:04.364 --> 0:06:05.164
<v Speaker 1>No, No, it's great.

0:06:05.325 --> 0:06:07.085
<v Speaker 2>You can put it in that little pod thing in

0:06:07.164 --> 0:06:07.765
<v Speaker 2>your backyard?

0:06:08.364 --> 0:06:10.885
<v Speaker 1>How that now? Which is getting me? Just getting a

0:06:10.924 --> 0:06:12.844
<v Speaker 1>new laptop. Let's just move on, all right, we're going

0:06:12.885 --> 0:06:14.844
<v Speaker 1>to take her. I don't want to talk about Let's uh,

0:06:16.044 --> 0:06:18.285
<v Speaker 1>there's take a break. We come back with part two

0:06:18.445 --> 0:06:23.245
<v Speaker 1>of Double Thumbs Up The Christian O'Connell Show podcast. In

0:06:23.404 --> 0:06:25.964
<v Speaker 1>Christian O'Connell Show, we're doing Double thumbs Up. We go

0:06:26.085 --> 0:06:29.325
<v Speaker 1>around the team and we share what we're into this week. Rio,

0:06:29.484 --> 0:06:30.085
<v Speaker 1>what's it for you?

0:06:30.284 --> 0:06:32.685
<v Speaker 3>I've got a couple for you guys. Firstly, we are

0:06:32.765 --> 0:06:35.325
<v Speaker 3>into spring. We are into pollen season.

0:06:35.445 --> 0:06:40.525
<v Speaker 1>Oh you getting into polland issues must have? Oh yeah,

0:06:40.604 --> 0:06:44.165
<v Speaker 1>shout out, I'm really getting into pollend guy. What were

0:06:44.205 --> 0:06:47.004
<v Speaker 1>they shrink? Next? They shrunk it? You know, pollen's.

0:06:48.445 --> 0:06:50.765
<v Speaker 3>It's very hard to get accurate pollen readings on most

0:06:50.804 --> 0:06:54.004
<v Speaker 3>of the major apps. So there is an independent Melbourne

0:06:54.284 --> 0:06:56.245
<v Speaker 3>company called I'm not sure the company is called, but

0:06:56.325 --> 0:06:59.605
<v Speaker 3>the app call is called Melbourne Pollen App and it

0:06:59.724 --> 0:07:03.164
<v Speaker 3>has every day alert of the pollen rating in Melbourne.

0:07:03.245 --> 0:07:06.284
<v Speaker 3>So today the grass pollen rating is low. You don't

0:07:06.364 --> 0:07:08.765
<v Speaker 3>have to worry about it. It sends you a alert

0:07:08.844 --> 0:07:09.484
<v Speaker 3>every morning, so.

0:07:09.484 --> 0:07:13.045
<v Speaker 1>When you wake up you have to a really good idea.

0:07:13.205 --> 0:07:13.884
<v Speaker 1>It's a lifesaver.

0:07:13.925 --> 0:07:17.165
<v Speaker 3>I download it every spring, very very helpful. Put on

0:07:17.205 --> 0:07:20.885
<v Speaker 3>your notifications for it. Second one, I spoke about it

0:07:21.085 --> 0:07:24.645
<v Speaker 3>three weeks ago after watching the first episode of Survivor.

0:07:25.845 --> 0:07:31.525
<v Speaker 3>It is the finale on Sunday and it has been

0:07:31.685 --> 0:07:36.445
<v Speaker 3>an incredible, incredible When it ends, I'm going to be devastated.

0:07:36.565 --> 0:07:40.285
<v Speaker 3>I don't think Australians realize Survivor is so so big.

0:07:40.364 --> 0:07:43.525
<v Speaker 3>It's in forty countries, it's been got fifty in America.

0:07:43.565 --> 0:07:45.485
<v Speaker 1>It is the biggest TV most successful TV show in

0:07:45.525 --> 0:07:46.765
<v Speaker 1>the world. Yeah, it wouldn't surprise me.

0:07:46.845 --> 0:07:49.205
<v Speaker 3>And Australia at the moment is the gold standard of

0:07:49.245 --> 0:07:52.085
<v Speaker 3>Survivor around the world. It's like, yeah, it's revered as

0:07:52.125 --> 0:07:55.685
<v Speaker 3>like the number one sort of the best players, the

0:07:55.765 --> 0:07:59.045
<v Speaker 3>best strategy, the best Survivor seasons are always Australia.

0:07:59.045 --> 0:08:02.365
<v Speaker 1>At the moment thought that, I know, so, I know

0:08:02.405 --> 0:08:03.645
<v Speaker 1>you would have done sorry, just when I got on

0:08:03.725 --> 0:08:06.244
<v Speaker 1>the passport, I would have thought that. Actually, yah, yeah

0:08:06.245 --> 0:08:08.005
<v Speaker 1>I knew that. Yeah, it feels right, it feels right.

0:08:08.765 --> 0:08:10.925
<v Speaker 1>Leaders are subject I.

0:08:10.925 --> 0:08:12.925
<v Speaker 3>Don't know, but that so this season they've got all

0:08:12.965 --> 0:08:15.364
<v Speaker 3>the best players from the history of Survivor against all

0:08:15.405 --> 0:08:16.685
<v Speaker 3>the best Australian players.

<v Speaker 4>gee whiz, that was something in our history that I

0:08:56.285 --> 0:08:59.804
<v Speaker 4>didn't know too much about. One hundred and twenty five

0:08:59.965 --> 0:09:02.484
<v Speaker 4>billion dollars worth of damage. It wasn't so much the

0:09:02.645 --> 0:09:05.684
<v Speaker 4>storm and all that came with the storm. It was

0:09:05.725 --> 0:09:08.005
<v Speaker 4>like the next day that the damage was done because

0:09:08.045 --> 0:09:10.965
<v Speaker 4>the levee broke around New Orleans and I didn't know any.

0:09:10.804 --> 0:09:11.205
<v Speaker 1>Of this stuff.

0:09:11.245 --> 0:09:13.925
<v Speaker 4>They had all these people in the Superdome. The NFL

0:09:14.005 --> 0:09:16.364
<v Speaker 4>team has the Superdome there but it wasn't until the

0:09:16.405 --> 0:09:18.724
<v Speaker 4>next day, in that afternoon that all the flooding came

0:09:18.765 --> 0:09:21.444
<v Speaker 4>in and there's like, you know, twenty five feet of

0:09:21.564 --> 0:09:24.045
<v Speaker 4>water that just take it took over the entire city.

0:09:24.204 --> 0:09:27.525
<v Speaker 4>So it's an incredible, I guess, learning experience about something

0:09:27.564 --> 0:09:30.565
<v Speaker 4>that really shaped that area of America. And they're still

0:09:30.605 --> 0:09:32.244
<v Speaker 4>talking about it and still getting over it.

0:09:32.405 --> 0:09:34.365
<v Speaker 1>Well one' they're warnings it was going to happen because

0:09:34.365 --> 0:09:37.324
<v Speaker 1>I met years ago interviewing Harry Shearer, you know from

0:09:37.365 --> 0:09:41.045
<v Speaker 1>Spinal Tap, Yeah, and all lots of so many Simpsons characters. Anyway,

0:09:41.405 --> 0:09:45.005
<v Speaker 1>that's his hometown. He actually made a documentary about what

0:09:45.165 --> 0:09:49.324
<v Speaker 1>happened because the world didn't know, right. Yeah, that's on Netflix, Netflix. Yeah.
