<v Speaker 1>And good morning, Patsy.

0:01:12.180 --> 0:01:13.140
<v Speaker 4>Morning, everyone.

0:01:13.300 --> 0:01:15.420
<v Speaker 1>Now, Pete, you look like you've got some sort of announcement.

0:01:15.600 --> 0:01:16.280
<v Speaker 5>I certainly do.

0:01:16.360 --> 0:01:18.299
<v Speaker 6>For the people who are fans of moths out there

0:01:18.340 --> 0:01:21.120
<v Speaker 6>this morning, obviously in the New South Wales, Sydney area,

0:01:21.160 --> 0:01:23.179
<v Speaker 6>there is a moth play going on across the state

0:01:23.280 --> 0:01:23.979
<v Speaker 6>and it is rough.

0:01:24.020 --> 0:01:26.760
<v Speaker 2>Yesterday morning we started the show. You were a real

0:01:26.800 --> 0:01:28.609
<v Speaker 2>authority on this. You had a lot to say about it.

0:01:28.620 --> 0:01:29.520
<v Speaker 2>Didn't realise there's more out there.

0:01:29.740 --> 0:01:30.680
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, there is more out there.

0:01:30.699 --> 0:01:32.780
<v Speaker 6>This is expected to last another three to four weeks,

0:01:32.840 --> 0:01:34.660
<v Speaker 6>just so everyone's aware.

0:01:34.979 --> 0:01:36.020
<v Speaker 1>These moths are massive.

0:01:36.039 --> 0:01:37.499
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, it's in Melbourne as well.

0:01:37.580 --> 0:01:38.459
<v Speaker 1>No, not like this.

0:01:38.840 --> 0:01:39.060
<v Speaker 6>Really?

0:01:39.100 --> 0:01:39.880
<v Speaker 4>Is it worse up there?

0:01:39.940 --> 0:01:41.020
<v Speaker 1>It's like a fat thumb.

0:01:41.039 --> 0:01:44.080
<v Speaker 2>That's the only way I could describe it as a

0:01:44.139 --> 0:01:46.980
<v Speaker 2>fat thumb. You know like in cartoons when they whack

0:01:47.020 --> 0:01:48.620
<v Speaker 2>their thumb and it glows up immediately?

0:01:49.300 --> 0:01:51.150
<v Speaker 1>It's that. They're just like so big.

0:01:51.450 --> 0:01:53.830
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, I've done a couple of reports overnight. Things were

0:01:53.870 --> 0:01:56.350
<v Speaker 6>very rough in the East Vaucluse area last night.

0:01:56.389 --> 0:01:57.790
<v Speaker 5>They had a really rough night.

0:01:57.810 --> 0:01:58.529
<v Speaker 6>I know, I know.

0:01:58.690 --> 0:02:01.690
<v Speaker 2>All over Hamish and Zoe's velvet drapes.

0:02:01.750 --> 0:02:04.090
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it's not good at all. Has anyone checked in?

0:02:04.570 --> 0:02:07.430
<v Speaker 6>It was a little bit sort of muggy today. Today

0:02:07.550 --> 0:02:09.490
<v Speaker 6>is going to be expected to ease later.

0:02:09.310 --> 0:02:10.950
<v Speaker 5>On this afternoon. But what they are saying, this is

0:02:10.970 --> 0:02:11.470
<v Speaker 5>the advice.

0:02:11.630 --> 0:02:13.889
<v Speaker 2>And will the pressure on your stye ease at any

0:02:13.930 --> 0:02:17.250
<v Speaker 2>moment during this week? On top of the moth report,

0:02:17.290 --> 0:02:18.430
<v Speaker 2>can we get the stye eye report?

0:02:18.490 --> 0:02:19.829
<v Speaker 5>I was wondering if it had gone down.

0:02:19.850 --> 0:02:20.639
<v Speaker 1>I'll put the glasses on.

0:02:21.540 --> 0:02:22.680
<v Speaker 5>What are you doing for it, Pete?

0:02:23.080 --> 0:02:23.300
<v Speaker 1>Nothing.

0:02:23.620 --> 0:02:24.460
<v Speaker 5>Just sort of seeing where it lands.

0:02:24.480 --> 0:02:26.270
<v Speaker 1>No, you meant to rub a wedding ring on it.

0:02:26.300 --> 0:02:27.310
<v Speaker 7>Yeah.

0:02:27.330 --> 0:02:27.870
<v Speaker 5>A wedding ring?

0:02:27.970 --> 0:02:29.530
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:02:30.110 --> 0:02:32.990
<v Speaker 5>He's got to get married first. Don't rub it in.

0:02:33.070 --> 0:02:34.990
<v Speaker 2>It's bad enough with the eye. Let's work on the eye,

0:02:35.020 --> 0:02:37.740
<v Speaker 2>then the man. I'm still single, thanks, Rick.

0:02:37.780 --> 0:02:38.900
<v Speaker 5>He can borrow your wedding ring.

0:02:39.260 --> 0:02:41.120
<v Speaker 1>You're going to swipe, you see a man with a styline.

0:02:41.960 --> 0:02:43.080
<v Speaker 1>It's affecting his love life.

0:02:43.120 --> 0:02:44.680
<v Speaker 4>Put the poultice on that thing.

0:02:44.930 --> 0:02:47.030
<v Speaker 6>Just so everyone is aware, this is not a state issue.

0:02:47.050 --> 0:02:48.610
<v Speaker 6>I reached out to the state government and asked if

0:02:48.650 --> 0:02:48.850
<v Speaker 6>it is.

0:02:49.050 --> 0:02:50.669
<v Speaker 5>I was wondering if the potter is a state issue.

0:02:50.730 --> 0:02:52.750
<v Speaker 2>I can see the phone lines are jammed right now

0:02:52.770 --> 0:02:53.850
<v Speaker 2>with concerned callers.

0:02:53.930 --> 0:02:56.049
<v Speaker 1>Is this a state issue? It is not a state issue.

0:02:56.070 --> 0:02:58.560
<v Speaker 1>I live in Harndorf. I'm listening right now. frightened to

0:02:58.590 --> 0:02:59.960
<v Speaker 1>go outside. Absolutely.

0:02:59.980 --> 0:03:02.160
<v Speaker 6>But no, it has been diverted to a local council issue.

0:03:02.200 --> 0:03:04.480
<v Speaker 6>So I reached out to three councils, the Northern Beaches Council,

0:03:04.540 --> 0:03:05.760
<v Speaker 6>Kiama and the Georges River Council.

0:03:05.780 --> 0:03:07.530
<v Speaker 1>Now wait, are you joking or you actually did reach out?

0:03:07.540 --> 0:03:08.200
<v Speaker 1>Absolutely not at all.

0:03:08.240 --> 0:03:08.940
<v Speaker 5>Reached out to all of them.

0:03:09.000 --> 0:03:10.580
<v Speaker 1>Can you check, when you do stuff during the day,

0:03:10.600 --> 0:03:13.840
<v Speaker 1>can you check every task with someone above you before

0:03:13.880 --> 0:03:15.700
<v Speaker 1>you go rogue? Yes, I know. I got caught up

0:03:15.740 --> 0:03:16.500
<v Speaker 1>in a moment yesterday.

0:03:16.560 --> 0:03:19.770
<v Speaker 2>We're running a radio show, not the moth station. I know,

0:03:19.790 --> 0:03:21.150
<v Speaker 2>but maybe this is the show that people.

0:03:21.170 --> 0:03:23.549
<v Speaker 1>This is a thing for Talk Back Radio. Oh, sorry.

0:03:23.570 --> 0:03:25.910
<v Speaker 1>This is a solid hour of today's show for Ben Fordham.

0:03:26.390 --> 0:03:27.990
<v Speaker 6>Could I give out the advice that they are all

0:03:28.090 --> 0:03:31.050
<v Speaker 6>actually giving? They're saying they are an endangered species, these

0:03:31.110 --> 0:03:34.010
<v Speaker 6>bogan moths, okay? So they're saying– I don't think it's bogan.

0:03:34.030 --> 0:03:34.650
<v Speaker 1>I think it's bogong.

0:03:34.680 --> 0:03:35.580
<v Speaker 7>It's not bogan.

0:03:35.640 --> 0:03:36.880
<v Speaker 4>It's bogong, Pete.

0:03:36.900 --> 0:03:37.060
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:03:37.300 --> 0:03:37.780
<v Speaker 1>No worries.

0:03:37.800 --> 0:03:38.660
<v Speaker 5>I'll write that down.

0:03:38.740 --> 0:03:39.920
<v Speaker 1>You're the expert.

0:03:40.100 --> 0:03:42.560
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, I am the moth expert. But they are saying

0:03:42.640 --> 0:03:45.340
<v Speaker 6>don't pull out the spray. Just keep lights to a minimum.

0:03:45.360 --> 0:03:46.320
<v Speaker 6>That's what they're asking everyone.

0:03:46.180 --> 0:03:47.170
<v Speaker 1>To do for the next little while.

0:03:47.180 --> 0:03:51.030
<v Speaker 2>Who's turning on all their lights with the cost of electricity?

0:03:51.330 --> 0:03:52.990
<v Speaker 2>Who's lighting up their house right now?

0:03:53.070 --> 0:03:54.310
<v Speaker 1>And I was thinking– Willy nilly.

0:03:55.240 --> 0:03:57.470
<v Speaker 6>It does make me think, cost of living. I think

0:03:57.970 --> 0:04:00.070
<v Speaker 6>we might actually, there might be some positivity out of

0:04:00.130 --> 0:04:01.910
<v Speaker 6>these moths as well. If everyone turns the lights down,

0:04:02.050 --> 0:04:03.750
<v Speaker 6>less power, it could be a positive thing.

0:04:03.790 --> 0:04:04.170
<v Speaker 1>Okay, fine.

0:04:04.210 --> 0:04:05.790
<v Speaker 2>You want to deal with the calls of people rolling

0:04:05.850 --> 0:04:08.910
<v Speaker 2>ankles and falling downstairs because of the dimly lit lights.

0:04:08.950 --> 0:04:09.640
<v Speaker 1>I didn't think about that.

0:04:09.650 --> 0:04:11.220
<v Speaker 2>We're not in the old era, all the blitz and

0:04:11.260 --> 0:04:12.980
<v Speaker 2>stuff like that, where candlelight go to bed.

0:04:13.000 --> 0:04:14.820
<v Speaker 1>I think this is the best thing I've ever spoken

0:04:14.840 --> 0:04:16.739
<v Speaker 1>about on radio is moths. It's the only time I've

0:04:16.760 --> 0:04:18.760
<v Speaker 1>seen you bring notes in. That's right.

0:04:18.800 --> 0:04:21.680
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I like this version of you. Just can

0:04:21.700 --> 0:04:22.980
<v Speaker 2>we make it about entertaining stuff?

0:04:23.000 --> 0:04:25.310
<v Speaker 1>We'll do it. We'll do it. Okay, so it's all learning.

0:04:25.990 --> 0:04:28.779
<v Speaker 3>The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

0:04:29.010 --> 0:04:30.160
<v Speaker 1>Christian, what are the odds?

0:04:30.700 --> 0:04:33.500
<v Speaker 2>Listening to the start of the show, I was going

0:04:33.540 --> 0:04:36.870
<v Speaker 2>through a Macca's drive-thru and a moth the size of

0:04:36.950 --> 0:04:40.020
<v Speaker 2>my hand. Flew in the window whilst I was waiting

0:04:40.040 --> 0:04:46.080
<v Speaker 2>for my coffee. Scared the shit out of me. What

0:04:46.500 --> 0:04:51.779
<v Speaker 2>are the shitty odds? They are massive.

0:04:51.820 --> 0:04:52.340
<v Speaker 5>They're huge.

0:04:52.420 --> 0:04:57.380
<v Speaker 1>The sizes of our hands. They're bigger than bats. Terrifying.

0:04:57.720 --> 0:04:58.060
<v Speaker 1>All right.

0:04:58.160 --> 0:05:00.660
<v Speaker 2>It's the Christian O'Connell Show on Gold. 15 minutes past six.

0:05:00.720 --> 0:05:03.540
<v Speaker 2>Every Tuesday morning, we ask you to rate your Monday.

0:05:03.620 --> 0:05:06.060
<v Speaker 2>How did you start the week? Patsy, how's yours out

0:05:06.080 --> 0:05:06.420
<v Speaker 2>of five?

0:05:07.370 --> 0:05:11.380
<v Speaker 4>I'm going with this week, everyone, because out of shock yesterday,

0:05:11.740 --> 0:05:13.600
<v Speaker 4>I did a load of washing, quite a few loads

0:05:13.620 --> 0:05:17.140
<v Speaker 4>of washing. It never ends, the laundry. Anyway, Audrey, in

0:05:17.200 --> 0:05:21.410
<v Speaker 4>her wisdom, my 15-year-old had left a hot pink lip

0:05:21.430 --> 0:05:24.430
<v Speaker 4>gloss in the pocket of her school dress.

0:05:24.830 --> 0:05:25.510
<v Speaker 8>Oh, no.

0:05:25.550 --> 0:05:28.830
<v Speaker 4>The cap was off it. Of course it was. It

0:05:28.870 --> 0:05:32.330
<v Speaker 4>was in with Chris's, my husband's, white business shirts.

0:05:32.350 --> 0:05:32.750
<v Speaker 3>Oh, fuck.

0:05:33.640 --> 0:05:35.640
<v Speaker 2>Now it looks like he's got lipstick on his collar

0:05:35.680 --> 0:05:36.960
<v Speaker 2>and he's been having a bit on the side.

0:05:37.860 --> 0:05:42.920
<v Speaker 1>And that's his story, is it, Pat? Adios!

0:05:43.720 --> 0:05:44.320
<v Speaker 5>Oh, that girl.

0:05:44.360 --> 0:05:46.000
<v Speaker 1>Not Doris in the typing, Paul.

0:05:46.020 --> 0:05:50.279
<v Speaker 4>So his shirts are all baby pink. I couldn't believe it.

0:05:50.350 --> 0:05:52.970
<v Speaker 4>It's almost worse than when a tissue goes through, I reckon.

0:05:53.370 --> 0:05:55.850
<v Speaker 4>So I don't know if they are salvageable.

0:05:55.870 --> 0:05:57.870
<v Speaker 9>Maybe he can just wear a pink shirt.

0:05:57.930 --> 0:06:00.100
<v Speaker 5>He's a classy man. He's a classy man.

0:06:00.130 --> 0:06:01.610
<v Speaker 1>He can easily pull that off.

0:06:01.840 --> 0:06:04.800
<v Speaker 4>But he needs white shirts as well, Rios. So now

0:06:04.840 --> 0:06:05.460
<v Speaker 4>he has no, you know.

0:06:05.580 --> 0:06:07.660
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, do you know nothing, mate, about the business world?

0:06:07.680 --> 0:06:10.089
<v Speaker 9>Sorry, I'm not familiar with the office work.

0:06:10.110 --> 0:06:11.850
<v Speaker 1>You're going to buy a brother printer from a man

0:06:11.910 --> 0:06:14.410
<v Speaker 1>in a pink shirt, okay? You're going to go, where's

0:06:14.430 --> 0:06:16.089
<v Speaker 1>your boss? Where are the white shirts?

0:06:17.120 --> 0:06:18.200
<v Speaker 5>I won't be buying a washing machine.

0:06:19.920 --> 0:06:21.440
<v Speaker 4>And I'm not vetting clothes.

0:06:21.500 --> 0:06:24.220
<v Speaker 5>Like if I'm the one, I love doing the laundry.

0:06:24.260 --> 0:06:25.089
<v Speaker 5>So I'm the one.

0:06:25.120 --> 0:06:26.640
<v Speaker 2>Can't be bothered going through all the pockets.

0:06:26.660 --> 0:06:29.909
<v Speaker 4>That's not my job. You need to get rid of coins,

0:06:30.070 --> 0:06:31.430
<v Speaker 4>anything else that you might have.

0:06:31.450 --> 0:06:32.510
<v Speaker 1>But they don't.

0:06:32.590 --> 0:06:33.909
<v Speaker 5>But they don't.

0:06:34.410 --> 0:06:38.510
<v Speaker 2>And you're right about that tissue patch. One tissue ruins that.

0:06:38.350 --> 0:06:39.250
<v Speaker 1>Wash forever, doesn't it?

0:06:39.250 --> 0:06:40.330
<v Speaker 5>And it's always the dark wash.

0:06:40.530 --> 0:06:42.750
<v Speaker 4>It's never the white wash when there's a tissue. It's

0:06:42.790 --> 0:06:47.760
<v Speaker 4>always your dark clothes, your jeans and stuff. So 0.5 yesterday,

0:06:47.780 --> 0:06:48.800
<v Speaker 4>not a good start.

0:06:49.220 --> 0:06:51.180
<v Speaker 1>I'm at a zero. A zero?

0:06:51.300 --> 0:06:54.000
<v Speaker 2>Two reasons why I'm at a zero. The dog had

0:06:54.030 --> 0:06:57.210
<v Speaker 2>to go to, I guess, some sort of canine dentist.

0:06:57.630 --> 0:06:58.330
<v Speaker 2>The vet, sorry.

0:06:58.390 --> 0:07:00.830
<v Speaker 5>I thought that was a word for it.

0:07:00.990 --> 0:07:05.650
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah. You don't see anywhere. Dog dentist.

0:07:05.670 --> 0:07:07.990
<v Speaker 5>Sounds like your dentist is a dog.

0:07:09.100 --> 0:07:12.200
<v Speaker 1>I'd love that. I'd gladly go and see that. A Labrador.

0:07:13.520 --> 0:07:15.300
<v Speaker 1>They have it peering into my mouth.

0:07:15.780 --> 0:07:19.940
<v Speaker 2>It'd be less scary if a Labrador did our dental checkups.

0:07:20.660 --> 0:07:22.480
<v Speaker 1>Idea for business. You'll see me.

0:07:22.720 --> 0:07:24.870
<v Speaker 2>You won't see me this time next year. Shark Tank

0:07:24.880 --> 0:07:28.030
<v Speaker 2>would have invented. Anyway, I have to take the dog

0:07:28.050 --> 0:07:31.220
<v Speaker 2>to the vet. for a dental checkup, and they rang

0:07:31.240 --> 0:07:33.480
<v Speaker 2>me and said, he's had to have three teeth out.

0:07:33.780 --> 0:07:34.600
<v Speaker 5>Of course he has.

0:07:34.760 --> 0:07:35.040
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:07:35.240 --> 0:07:36.530
<v Speaker 5>They just took them out before.

0:07:36.870 --> 0:07:39.210
<v Speaker 2>Well, yeah, no, no, because he was going in because

0:07:39.270 --> 0:07:40.730
<v Speaker 2>finally dog's teeth get manky.

0:07:41.710 --> 0:07:41.790
<v Speaker 8>Oh.

0:07:41.970 --> 0:07:44.050
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, if you take him presley, it's dental checkup.

0:07:44.070 --> 0:07:46.570
<v Speaker 4>We have to, no, but we have to brush his teeth.

0:07:46.650 --> 0:07:47.730
<v Speaker 4>Maybe that's why, because we brush his teeth.

0:07:47.750 --> 0:07:48.950
<v Speaker 1>Well, what are you going to get, like a big

0:07:49.010 --> 0:07:53.310
<v Speaker 1>old wire brush from Bunnings? A broom. Some barbed wire. God,

0:07:53.330 --> 0:07:55.060
<v Speaker 1>those are sticking in Jaws pie holes.

0:07:55.760 --> 0:07:56.440
<v Speaker 3>You can get.

0:07:56.260 --> 0:07:59.900
<v Speaker 4>Special toothpaste in a brush, like a human brush, actually.

0:07:59.920 --> 0:08:01.720
<v Speaker 1>But you're never going to do that.

0:08:02.060 --> 0:08:02.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, we do.

0:08:02.800 --> 0:08:03.000
<v Speaker 7>Do you?

0:08:03.020 --> 0:08:05.000
<v Speaker 5>About once a month. Oh, once a month!

0:08:05.100 --> 0:08:08.200
<v Speaker 2>Imagine if a human brushed their teeth once a month.

0:08:08.280 --> 0:08:08.820
<v Speaker 5>He loves it.

0:08:08.820 --> 0:08:10.680
<v Speaker 1>That's why their breath stinks.

0:08:11.100 --> 0:08:14.540
<v Speaker 2>And then the other reason, I've left my sunglasses, my

0:08:15.000 --> 0:08:18.070
<v Speaker 2>beloved sunglasses. My wife got them for me two years ago.

0:08:18.090 --> 0:08:20.570
<v Speaker 2>I love these sunglasses in the back of a taxi

0:08:20.590 --> 0:08:23.530
<v Speaker 2>that picked me up from Sydney Airport Sunday, right? All

0:08:23.570 --> 0:08:26.240
<v Speaker 2>I know from the credit card receipt is that company

0:08:26.280 --> 0:08:29.080
<v Speaker 2>was called taxi one i've emailed them i left a

0:08:29.100 --> 0:08:30.240
<v Speaker 2>message yesterday.

0:08:30.520 --> 0:08:34.699
<v Speaker 4>Nothing oh i hate when that happens you.

0:08:34.600 --> 0:08:37.640
<v Speaker 9>Haven't ever seen them again no we've been here since

0:08:37.699 --> 0:08:45.050
<v Speaker 9>sunday night i haven't seen christian so crestfallen.

0:08:42.510 --> 0:08:45.929
<v Speaker 2>You just get ridiculously attached i know they're just sunglasses

0:08:45.969 --> 0:08:47.290
<v Speaker 2>but they were the best ones ever.

0:08:47.250 --> 0:08:50.160
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah wow I don't know what to do.

0:08:50.300 --> 0:08:52.699
<v Speaker 9>Well, we've got plenty of taxi drivers listening, I'd like

0:08:52.739 --> 0:08:54.400
<v Speaker 9>to think, in Sydney. Is anyone sick?

0:08:54.420 --> 0:08:57.280
<v Speaker 2>They picked me up at Terminal 3 at 2.15 Sunday afternoon.

0:08:57.300 --> 0:08:58.619
<v Speaker 1>But I don't know. I think they have lots of

0:08:58.640 --> 0:09:01.979
<v Speaker 1>different companies there. Yeah. There's not just one universal one.

0:09:02.000 --> 0:09:05.539
<v Speaker 2>And Taxi One, according to an old moth investigator here, Pete,

0:09:05.979 --> 0:09:07.679
<v Speaker 2>is a holding Air Force, some.

0:09:07.540 --> 0:09:09.500
<v Speaker 1>Sort of transaction company. They're based out of Canberra.

0:09:09.559 --> 0:09:10.960
<v Speaker 6>But I mean, I guess if you could ask everyone

0:09:10.979 --> 0:09:12.899
<v Speaker 6>in Sydney right now, if you're in a cab listening

0:09:12.939 --> 0:09:14.260
<v Speaker 6>to the show, just have a look.

0:09:14.280 --> 0:09:15.319
<v Speaker 1>Were you in the back? Yeah.

0:09:15.420 --> 0:09:16.230
<v Speaker 5>What color cab was it?

0:09:16.239 --> 0:09:18.500
<v Speaker 1>Was it white? It was a white cab. Maybe a Skoda.

0:09:18.800 --> 0:09:20.280
<v Speaker 5>Imagine if you're in a white cab right now.

0:09:20.300 --> 0:09:21.019
<v Speaker 1>They're long gone.

0:09:21.599 --> 0:09:23.179
<v Speaker 5>Can you describe the sunnies just in case?

0:09:23.239 --> 0:09:30.270
<v Speaker 1>Grey, smoky blue. Grey frame, smoky blue lens. Not prescription. No, no, no. Oh, well.

0:09:30.390 --> 0:09:32.450
<v Speaker 1>Say they are, that way they'll hand them in. Say

0:09:32.469 --> 0:09:35.179
<v Speaker 1>they're prescription, that way they'll hand them in. Sorry, just.

0:09:36.219 --> 0:09:38.119
<v Speaker 2>A lot going on in that noggin today, Pete, and

0:09:38.160 --> 0:09:40.000
<v Speaker 2>it's going to flag it up now at 6.20, okay?

0:09:40.640 --> 0:09:45.849
<v Speaker 1>Too late. The moths, I think, are in your head. Rio,

0:09:45.890 --> 0:09:46.589
<v Speaker 1>how was your Monday?

0:09:46.770 --> 0:09:48.089
<v Speaker 5>I had a really cool Monday.

0:09:48.130 --> 0:09:51.790
<v Speaker 9>I bumped into my year six teacher, Mr. Lombardi, down

0:09:52.069 --> 0:09:54.010
<v Speaker 9>at Greenwood Plaza. I was just on my way to

0:09:54.050 --> 0:09:54.750
<v Speaker 9>get a massage.

0:09:55.170 --> 0:09:56.780
<v Speaker 5>I was like, oh, my God. We had a chat.

0:09:56.829 --> 0:10:00.199
<v Speaker 5>He was the coolest, coolest, coolest teacher.

0:10:00.439 --> 0:10:04.050
<v Speaker 9>So in year six, we did two separate school excursions

0:10:04.150 --> 0:10:04.730
<v Speaker 9>to the pub.

0:10:04.750 --> 0:10:07.209
<v Speaker 1>How did he get to the pub?

0:10:07.370 --> 0:10:10.420
<v Speaker 2>What a legend, though. a legend you remember those those

0:10:10.500 --> 0:10:12.820
<v Speaker 2>rogue teachers you don't get them anymore yes.

0:10:12.640 --> 0:10:14.900
<v Speaker 9>You don't like it's like um it's like when student

0:10:14.939 --> 0:10:17.600
<v Speaker 9>welfare or you know those sort of concerns like didn't

0:10:17.640 --> 0:10:19.640
<v Speaker 9>really exist and you could just take kids to the

0:10:19.679 --> 0:10:22.019
<v Speaker 9>pub we did one for maths which was where we

0:10:22.199 --> 0:10:24.099
<v Speaker 9>went to the pub and he would just rattle off

0:10:24.160 --> 0:10:26.620
<v Speaker 9>menu items at us and we had to calculates what.

0:10:26.520 --> 0:10:29.189
<v Speaker 2>A great idea do you know when you were a

0:10:29.199 --> 0:10:32.109
<v Speaker 2>kid going into a pub was a big thing it

0:10:32.150 --> 0:10:35.230
<v Speaker 2>was like the hidden world of grown-ups that's so true

0:10:35.689 --> 0:10:38.210
<v Speaker 2>and then I remember like sometimes you'd see people that

0:10:38.329 --> 0:10:41.130
<v Speaker 2>were obviously like would sit at the bar and I'd

0:10:41.150 --> 0:10:43.010
<v Speaker 2>be in all of them but they had they could

0:10:43.030 --> 0:10:44.649
<v Speaker 2>just had a life where they could just sit in

0:10:44.670 --> 0:10:46.869
<v Speaker 2>the bar and then years later my dad would explain

0:10:47.050 --> 0:10:49.809
<v Speaker 2>those people are day drinkers and then I became one

0:10:49.829 --> 0:10:51.160
<v Speaker 2>of them with breakfast show hours.

0:10:51.929 --> 0:10:57.459
<v Speaker 1>I've achieved all my goals And did he know what

0:10:57.500 --> 0:10:58.160
<v Speaker 1>had become of you?

0:10:58.179 --> 0:11:00.660
<v Speaker 5>No, he actually hadn't heard about it, so it.

0:11:00.620 --> 0:11:03.010
<v Speaker 1>Was nice to tell him.

0:11:03.050 --> 0:11:05.929
<v Speaker 2>But he's heard about your more successful sister on TV.

0:11:07.089 --> 0:11:08.870
<v Speaker 2>And in a play tonight.

0:11:08.910 --> 0:11:09.709
<v Speaker 1>Is it the opening night?

0:11:10.150 --> 0:11:12.510
<v Speaker 9>It's not the opening night, but it's called The Unfriend.

0:11:12.569 --> 0:11:15.089
<v Speaker 9>It's at Roslyn Packer Theatre. It looks, and it's got

0:11:15.130 --> 0:11:17.229
<v Speaker 9>very good reviews. So yes, very excited to see my

0:11:17.260 --> 0:11:18.059
<v Speaker 9>sister there tonight.

0:11:18.089 --> 0:11:19.859
<v Speaker 2>This is incredible. I bet they're teaching you all about

0:11:19.880 --> 0:11:22.540
<v Speaker 2>your sister. Hey, your sister's doing very well.

0:11:22.620 --> 0:11:23.400
<v Speaker 5>I see her on TV.

0:11:23.420 --> 0:11:25.719
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah. What happened to you? Oh, I'm sorry to

0:11:25.760 --> 0:11:26.040
<v Speaker 1>hear that.

0:11:26.059 --> 0:11:28.699
<v Speaker 5>No, it's actually quite a big deal. National show, you know.

0:11:29.329 --> 0:11:31.489
<v Speaker 1>Oh, how lovely to see him. It was really cool.

0:11:31.550 --> 0:11:31.750
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:11:32.170 --> 0:11:33.179
<v Speaker 1>Pete, how was your Monday?

0:11:33.260 --> 0:11:33.660
<v Speaker 5>Monday was great.

0:11:33.689 --> 0:11:35.370
<v Speaker 1>If this is about the moths, I'm turning the mic off.

0:11:35.420 --> 0:11:37.640
<v Speaker 5>No, it was fine. And do you know what?

0:11:37.920 --> 0:11:39.300
<v Speaker 1>Behind the kitchen. Yeah, no.

0:11:39.640 --> 0:11:40.279
<v Speaker 5>I just enjoyed it.

0:11:40.280 --> 0:11:41.239
<v Speaker 6>It was a five for me because I got to

0:11:41.280 --> 0:11:42.660
<v Speaker 6>have the dinner with you lot last night. We went

0:11:42.679 --> 0:11:44.539
<v Speaker 6>out for a nice dinner as a team dinner. It

0:11:44.559 --> 0:11:46.740
<v Speaker 6>was actually really nice. And something that I think you

0:11:46.780 --> 0:11:48.800
<v Speaker 6>pointed out massively was I just love the fact that

0:11:48.859 --> 0:11:52.370
<v Speaker 6>Caitlin Mack, the executive producer of the show, or Chuckle

0:11:52.390 --> 0:11:54.589
<v Speaker 6>Sister 1, I think she is, but she took control

0:11:54.630 --> 0:11:55.529
<v Speaker 6>of ordering for all of us.

0:11:56.130 --> 0:11:57.909
<v Speaker 1>That's who you wouldn't have liked to. She didn't ask

0:11:57.949 --> 0:11:58.629
<v Speaker 1>what people wanted.

0:11:58.650 --> 0:12:00.150
<v Speaker 5>No, she has form in that.

0:12:00.270 --> 0:12:03.540
<v Speaker 2>She just took immediate control and ordered food. We had

0:12:03.559 --> 0:12:06.059
<v Speaker 2>a small piece of bread cut up into five pieces.

0:12:06.439 --> 0:12:07.170
<v Speaker 5>Oh, stop it.

0:12:07.199 --> 0:12:09.980
<v Speaker 1>No, no, no, we did. No, we did. Cut up. Stop.

0:12:10.000 --> 0:12:11.699
<v Speaker 1>Like a small child's birthday cake.

0:12:11.819 --> 0:12:12.479
<v Speaker 5>Oh, no.

0:12:12.540 --> 0:12:14.439
<v Speaker 9>And it wasn't like, you know how some people go, oh,

0:12:14.459 --> 0:12:16.099
<v Speaker 9>what would you like? Does someone want one of these?

0:12:16.130 --> 0:12:17.630
<v Speaker 1>There was none of that.

0:12:17.670 --> 0:12:18.469
<v Speaker 5>This is what we're having.

0:12:18.809 --> 0:12:21.589
<v Speaker 2>Ordering something called potato bread. I've never heard of it before.

0:12:21.609 --> 0:12:25.550
<v Speaker 1>It was delicious. It had potato in it. Yeah, it

0:12:25.569 --> 0:12:25.910
<v Speaker 1>was wild.

0:12:25.929 --> 0:12:27.449
<v Speaker 5>It was something I've never had before either.

0:12:27.750 --> 0:12:29.289
<v Speaker 4>It's all gluttonous in the tummy.

0:12:29.510 --> 0:12:31.150
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Oh, no, it's health food parts.

0:12:31.170 --> 0:12:32.389
<v Speaker 5>That's very healthy.

0:12:32.469 --> 0:12:33.709
<v Speaker 1>It's high protein.

0:12:34.229 --> 0:12:37.250
<v Speaker 2>It's a lot of the gym bros all tuck into

0:12:37.510 --> 0:12:38.369
<v Speaker 2>potato bread.

0:12:38.989 --> 0:12:40.509
<v Speaker 1>It's high protein, that.

0:12:40.709 --> 0:12:43.370
<v Speaker 3>The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

0:12:43.849 --> 0:12:45.870
<v Speaker 1>All right, we're asking you to rate your day yesterday.

0:12:45.929 --> 0:12:47.829
<v Speaker 2>How did you begin the week? How was your Monday? Christian,

0:12:47.949 --> 0:12:50.329
<v Speaker 2>five out of five Monday for me. It was hair

0:12:50.349 --> 0:12:55.080
<v Speaker 2>wash day. Each their own. Lisa Christian, my Monday was

0:12:55.120 --> 0:12:56.929
<v Speaker 2>three out of five. Go in the car to drive.

0:12:57.030 --> 0:13:02.209
<v Speaker 2>And three giant moths flew out of nowhere from under

0:13:02.229 --> 0:13:05.609
<v Speaker 2>the seats, swerving and screaming. All I could think was

0:13:05.670 --> 0:13:09.339
<v Speaker 2>we cannot kill them. Peter's told us they're endangered species.

0:13:09.479 --> 0:13:10.520
<v Speaker 5>We have to be grateful.

0:13:10.679 --> 0:13:12.880
<v Speaker 2>Christian, my Monday started late at Melbourne to Sydney, but

0:13:12.900 --> 0:13:14.699
<v Speaker 2>the good thing is it's raining, so I can clean

0:13:14.859 --> 0:13:18.260
<v Speaker 2>the 200 moths off the screen. We need to stop

0:13:18.660 --> 0:13:21.559
<v Speaker 2>Moth Watch now. It's become an official situation.

0:13:21.839 --> 0:13:23.899
<v Speaker 9>Maybe in Patsy's weather report, we can get a sort

0:13:23.920 --> 0:13:26.099
<v Speaker 9>of forecast for moths in the area.

0:13:27.219 --> 0:13:29.800
<v Speaker 2>Let's add another thing to things that men love. If

0:13:29.920 --> 0:13:32.719
<v Speaker 2>I see a giant crane demoing a building or just operating,

0:13:33.140 --> 0:13:36.920
<v Speaker 2>I will stop to observe. Lockie, one of our audio producers,

0:13:36.979 --> 0:13:39.179
<v Speaker 2>said his day yesterday, five out of five, he was

0:13:39.199 --> 0:13:42.780
<v Speaker 2>driving on. He saw a huge crane demoing a building. Obviously,

0:13:42.819 --> 0:13:45.130
<v Speaker 2>he pulled over and he's filmed some video here. We'll

0:13:45.150 --> 0:13:47.309
<v Speaker 2>put this up on socials for crane fans. He said

0:13:47.349 --> 0:13:50.110
<v Speaker 2>on the footpath were another eight dudes filming it.

0:13:50.969 --> 0:13:53.699
<v Speaker 1>Oh, the majesty of a giant crane demoing a building

0:13:54.199 --> 0:13:54.879
<v Speaker 1>is so good.

0:13:54.900 --> 0:13:58.420
<v Speaker 2>There should be a dedicated TV channel to just cranes

0:13:58.459 --> 0:14:00.179
<v Speaker 2>working around the world 24-7.

0:14:01.260 --> 0:14:01.939
<v Speaker 1>I would watch that.

0:14:01.959 --> 0:14:04.120
<v Speaker 3>The Christian O'Connell Show.

0:14:04.140 --> 0:14:04.859
<v Speaker 2>Go on.

0:14:05.219 --> 0:14:06.079
<v Speaker 3>Podcast.

0:14:06.520 --> 0:14:09.360
<v Speaker 2>Extra time wasted this morning. We're looking for your beer bands.

0:14:10.089 --> 0:14:11.449

0:14:29.420 --> 0:14:33.460

<v Speaker 5>Gold.

0:14:44.100 --> 0:14:47.200
<v Speaker 2>Savage Beer Garden. That's actually a good name for a

0:14:47.300 --> 0:14:48.020
<v Speaker 2>metal band.

0:14:48.580 --> 0:14:51.720
<v Speaker 1>Savage Beer Garden. And the Schooner Sisters.

0:14:52.220 --> 0:14:54.300

<v Speaker 1>Oh, very good. Silver.

0:14:58.030 --> 0:14:59.870
<v Speaker 9>These rockers are having two in the first hour and

0:14:59.890 --> 0:15:01.590
<v Speaker 9>then one every hour after that.

0:15:01.710 --> 0:15:02.710

0:15:02.890 --> 0:15:04.810
<v Speaker 5>It's Mega Breathalyzer. Silver.

<v Speaker 1>Silver.

0:15:07.700 --> 0:15:10.440
<v Speaker 9>And this rapper loves to go to Queensland, loves to

0:15:10.479 --> 0:15:12.040
<v Speaker 9>grab one of their famous beers.

0:15:12.380 --> 0:15:13.639
<v Speaker 5>It's DM4X.

0:15:13.920 --> 0:15:17.820
<v Speaker 1>Oh, very good. What a reference. Oh, DMX. R.I.P. Wow,

0:15:17.859 --> 0:15:19.340
<v Speaker 1>we've gone too soon. One of the greats.

0:15:20.060 --> 0:15:22.870
<v Speaker 3>The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

0:15:23.729 --> 0:15:25.650
<v Speaker 1>All right, Rio, are you ready to mark?

0:15:25.690 --> 0:15:26.210
<v Speaker 5>Let's go.

0:15:26.450 --> 0:15:28.110
<v Speaker 2>Not the Beastie Boys, the Bintang Boys.

0:15:28.650 --> 0:15:29.210
<v Speaker 5>Silver plus.

0:15:29.650 --> 0:15:31.050
<v Speaker 1>Instead of shaggy, shandy.

0:15:33.109 --> 0:15:34.570
<v Speaker 5>Shandy's only for old codgers.

0:15:34.609 --> 0:15:38.190
<v Speaker 1>How dare you? No. How dare you?

0:15:38.210 --> 0:15:40.890
<v Speaker 2>My dad used to love a little shandy, you know,

0:15:40.910 --> 0:15:43.250
<v Speaker 2>with a top of lemonade in the beer.

0:15:43.290 --> 0:15:44.290
<v Speaker 1>Take the edge off it.

0:15:44.570 --> 0:15:46.410
<v Speaker 5>I don't know if the kids are drinking shandies.

0:15:46.470 --> 0:15:49.560
<v Speaker 2>Well, they should do. They're slowing down how much booze

0:15:49.600 --> 0:15:51.900
<v Speaker 2>they have. Maybe they are enjoying a half and half.

0:15:51.940 --> 0:15:54.739
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, true point. Shandy feels like a phrase that's probably

0:15:54.780 --> 0:15:56.859
<v Speaker 1>dying out. You're right.

0:15:56.920 --> 0:15:59.359
<v Speaker 2>No one under 25 is going around ordering a round

0:15:59.400 --> 0:16:00.280
<v Speaker 2>of shandies for the lads.

0:16:00.970 --> 0:16:02.509
<v Speaker 1>Great game, guys. I'll go and get us a round

0:16:02.550 --> 0:16:03.090
<v Speaker 1>of Shandy's.

0:16:03.690 --> 0:16:05.729
<v Speaker 2>Also, when I was growing up, it was an insult

0:16:06.210 --> 0:16:08.999
<v Speaker 2>about somebody. You go, from what I hear, that guy.

0:16:09.090 --> 0:16:11.379
<v Speaker 2>When it was a slur on someone who was a

0:16:11.450 --> 0:16:14.300
<v Speaker 2>weak man, which is terrible, you would whisper.

0:16:14.380 --> 0:16:15.880
<v Speaker 1>From what I hear, it's a bit of a Shandy drinker.

0:16:16.300 --> 0:16:17.300
<v Speaker 1>People go, bloody.

0:16:18.140 --> 0:16:19.820
<v Speaker 9>It's a fine line to walk as a man. You

0:16:19.840 --> 0:16:21.260
<v Speaker 9>can't even have a drink without being.

0:16:21.280 --> 0:16:24.780
<v Speaker 1>It's a pathetic line. Lemonade makes you a weak man.

0:16:28.760 --> 0:16:33.519
<v Speaker 1>The VB52s. Silver. Silver. The Rolling Stones and Wood. Gold.

0:16:33.560 --> 0:16:35.220
<v Speaker 1>Very good, Steve. Bruno Bars.

0:16:36.840 --> 0:16:38.240
<v Speaker 5>That's very good, gold.

0:16:38.380 --> 0:16:42.280
<v Speaker 1>Adam, well done. Pop Benatar. Silver. Ganesa Morossi.

0:16:43.040 --> 0:16:44.979
<v Speaker 5>Oh, wow. Way gold.

0:16:45.080 --> 0:16:47.700
<v Speaker 1>That is genius. Well done, Chris. Buddy Weiser-Holley.

0:16:48.340 --> 0:16:48.980
<v Speaker 5>Silver plus.

0:16:49.080 --> 0:16:54.220
<v Speaker 1>Just played them, the U2-ies. Gold. David Lee Frothies. Silver.

0:16:56.229 --> 0:16:57.450
<v Speaker 1>Metallic Carton Draft.

0:16:58.150 --> 0:16:58.690
<v Speaker 5>Silver.

0:16:59.010 --> 0:17:03.650
<v Speaker 1>I like that. Joe Canabiri. Gold. That's very good. Well done, Stuart.

0:17:03.670 --> 0:17:04.230
<v Speaker 5>Can of beer.

0:17:04.590 --> 0:17:08.850
<v Speaker 1>Joe, can of beer is great. William, I am double parked.

0:17:09.990 --> 0:17:11.770
<v Speaker 5>Bronze.

0:17:12.310 --> 0:17:16.330
<v Speaker 1>Electric light owl orchestra. Silver. Limp homebrew kit.

0:17:16.810 --> 0:17:18.110
<v Speaker 5>Oh, that's gold.

0:17:18.270 --> 0:17:22.670
<v Speaker 1>Well done, Ken. Ken in Sydney. That's a great one. Another.

0:17:23.690 --> 0:17:25.750
<v Speaker 1>Another old culture phrase, homebrew.

0:17:26.210 --> 0:17:29.609
<v Speaker 9>I remember at our Christmas, maybe three years ago, cousin

0:17:29.690 --> 0:17:33.130
<v Speaker 9>Brad had his first crack at making homebrew and.

0:17:33.090 --> 0:17:34.470
<v Speaker 5>It was the most lethal.

0:17:34.550 --> 0:17:35.130
<v Speaker 1>It was disgusting.

0:17:36.020 --> 0:17:38.270
<v Speaker 5>But everyone was hammered. So silty, isn't it?

0:17:38.280 --> 0:17:41.080
<v Speaker 2>You can't see your hand, the other side of it.

0:17:42.120 --> 0:17:44.860
<v Speaker 2>It's like Loch Ness would live in water like that.

0:17:46.160 --> 0:17:48.340
<v Speaker 5>It was foul and it was lethal.

0:17:48.360 --> 0:17:51.210
<v Speaker 1>Has anyone ever had a nice drink of homebrew?

0:17:52.050 --> 0:17:54.630
<v Speaker 2>You think that you can do what distilleries do and

0:17:54.690 --> 0:17:57.650
<v Speaker 2>do it under your stairs? Whenever I've seen mates doing it,

0:17:57.690 --> 0:18:00.190
<v Speaker 2>it's always in an under the stairs set up. We're

0:18:00.210 --> 0:18:03.970
<v Speaker 2>like these demijohns and it stinks the whole house out.

0:18:06.930 --> 0:18:08.910
<v Speaker 2>If anyone is listening to this going, no, you haven't

0:18:08.930 --> 0:18:11.890
<v Speaker 2>tried my homebrew. Please, I'm happy to be proved wrong.

0:18:12.310 --> 0:18:14.650
<v Speaker 2>I'm yet to have anything that is half as good

0:18:15.010 --> 0:18:17.110
<v Speaker 2>as something you can get on draft at your local pub.

0:18:19.050 --> 0:18:22.790
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, limp homebrew is great, Ken. Ken would have

0:18:22.830 --> 0:18:25.850
<v Speaker 2>a homebrew one, wouldn't he, as well? Ken, do you

0:18:25.890 --> 0:18:26.869
<v Speaker 2>like a shandy at the weekend?

0:18:27.690 --> 0:18:28.369
<v Speaker 1>Motley Brew.

0:18:28.830 --> 0:18:29.290
<v Speaker 5>Silver Plus.

0:18:29.310 --> 0:18:34.720
<v Speaker 1>The Beer Tools. Gold. Phil Collins' favourite gear. Guinnesses.

0:18:35.360 --> 0:18:37.100
<v Speaker 5>Guinnesses is good. That's gold.

0:18:37.260 --> 0:18:42.500
<v Speaker 1>Well done. Slab Dusty. Silver. Pure Blondie. Silver. Pilsner Gomez.

0:18:42.830 --> 0:18:44.080
<v Speaker 5>Oh, yeah, silver.

0:18:44.820 --> 0:18:46.540
<v Speaker 1>What's better than a two-pack? Six-pack.

0:18:47.120 --> 0:18:47.740
<v Speaker 5>That's gold.

0:18:48.540 --> 0:18:50.500
<v Speaker 1>Well done, Joe. All right, who is the winner? They

0:18:50.520 --> 0:18:51.100
<v Speaker 1>were very good.

0:18:51.380 --> 0:18:52.920
<v Speaker 5>Ken with Limp Home Brew Kids.

0:18:52.940 --> 0:18:53.400
<v Speaker 7>Absolutely.

0:18:53.460 --> 0:18:54.480
<v Speaker 1>Kenny, you're the winner today.

0:18:54.500 --> 0:18:57.920
<v Speaker 3>The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

0:18:58.050 --> 0:19:00.710
<v Speaker 2>Christian, listen to you guys talking about homebrew beer. Big

0:19:00.730 --> 0:19:03.590
<v Speaker 2>shout-out to my dad. He brought a bungalow out back

0:19:03.710 --> 0:19:04.970
<v Speaker 2>and used to make homebrew beer.

0:19:05.090 --> 0:19:05.770
<v Speaker 1>It was a science.

0:19:06.560 --> 0:19:07.920
<v Speaker 2>He used to have a little book that he'd write

0:19:08.060 --> 0:19:12.020
<v Speaker 2>everything down in so he knew which batches were the bomb.

0:19:12.840 --> 0:19:15.760
<v Speaker 2>He would bottle them in old VB bottles, take them

0:19:15.780 --> 0:19:22.300
<v Speaker 2>to parties, and nobody could tell the difference. Is they

0:19:22.340 --> 0:19:25.250
<v Speaker 2>call it a blind taste test? Yes. But this would

0:19:25.270 --> 0:19:28.410
<v Speaker 2>be a blind drunk taste test. That focus group is

0:19:28.470 --> 0:19:31.910
<v Speaker 2>already a couple of beers deep. You're not really sure

0:19:31.990 --> 0:19:33.010
<v Speaker 2>what you're drinking.

0:19:33.850 --> 0:19:34.530
<v Speaker 1>Shout out to your dad.

0:19:34.570 --> 0:19:37.109
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure it was an amazing recipe. I want to

0:19:37.150 --> 0:19:39.340
<v Speaker 2>know that people are still making, keeping the art of

0:19:39.400 --> 0:19:40.880
<v Speaker 2>homebrew brewing alive.

0:19:40.940 --> 0:19:41.200
<v Speaker 3>Yes.

0:19:41.420 --> 0:19:44.740
<v Speaker 2>I'd like to invite the homebrewers to bring in their

0:19:44.840 --> 0:19:48.040
<v Speaker 2>wares and their brews to the show. I want to

0:19:48.100 --> 0:19:50.000
<v Speaker 2>host an annual homebrew of the year.

0:19:50.140 --> 0:19:50.970
<v Speaker 1>Oh, I like it.

0:19:50.990 --> 0:19:53.470
<v Speaker 2>We will know if it's still as mucky as our

0:19:53.510 --> 0:19:54.540
<v Speaker 2>old man used to make it.

0:19:54.590 --> 0:19:56.210
<v Speaker 5>Will there be a single nice one?

0:19:57.010 --> 0:19:59.760
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's the question. Just one. one amongst you.

0:19:59.780 --> 0:20:00.320
<v Speaker 5>Drinkable.

0:20:00.380 --> 0:20:03.780
<v Speaker 2>That something is 50% drinkable as an actual thing in

0:20:03.820 --> 0:20:07.260
<v Speaker 2>a pub that's been brewed properly using science.

0:20:07.700 --> 0:20:10.909
<v Speaker 1>I hope there is. Yeah. I'd like to find out.

0:20:11.550 --> 0:20:14.770
<v Speaker 2>Sadly, Rio thought this is the sort of behavior of

0:20:14.970 --> 0:20:17.850
<v Speaker 2>old codgers. And I want to make the word codger

0:20:17.870 --> 0:20:20.700
<v Speaker 2>cool again. I want to bring Codge back.

0:20:20.960 --> 0:20:22.160
<v Speaker 5>Reclaim the word Codger.

0:20:22.300 --> 0:20:23.060
<v Speaker 1>I do, yeah.

0:20:23.120 --> 0:20:26.580
<v Speaker 2>Maybe the prize is a golden statue. You are the

0:20:26.620 --> 0:20:27.420
<v Speaker 2>golden Codger.

0:20:28.160 --> 0:20:30.100
<v Speaker 5>You know what Codgers love? A crown lager.

0:20:30.160 --> 0:20:30.660
<v Speaker 1>No, they do.

0:20:30.690 --> 0:20:32.150
<v Speaker 5>That is the mirror of the old Codger.

0:20:32.290 --> 0:20:33.610
<v Speaker 1>Okay, so is that the trophy?

0:20:33.810 --> 0:20:34.590
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, crowny.

0:20:34.610 --> 0:20:36.230
<v Speaker 1>To win the crown, to lift the crown.

0:20:36.370 --> 0:20:37.050
<v Speaker 5>The crown.

0:20:38.250 --> 0:20:41.750
<v Speaker 2>All right, it's done. Yesterday, we had some great calls.

0:20:42.170 --> 0:20:45.670
<v Speaker 2>What have you accidentally swallowed? This was over the weekend.

0:20:45.970 --> 0:20:50.830
<v Speaker 2>My almost 20-year-old daughter, swallowed the ring pool from a.

0:20:51.100 --> 0:20:53.980
<v Speaker 1>I hope I'm getting this right. I'm not a drinker

0:20:54.020 --> 0:20:58.040
<v Speaker 1>of it. Smirnoff Double Black. That's the one. Is that it? Yeah.

0:20:58.200 --> 0:21:00.520
<v Speaker 5>A classic. A classic sort of younger age drink.

0:21:00.540 --> 0:21:04.160
<v Speaker 2>That's your penfold if you're a 19, 20-year-old student. That's

0:21:04.190 --> 0:21:05.710
<v Speaker 2>the Grange. Yeah, it was a good year, the 2024

0:21:05.710 --> 0:21:09.770
<v Speaker 2>Double Black. What a vintage. She swallowed a ring pool

0:21:09.790 --> 0:21:13.090
<v Speaker 2>over the weekend. We had this great call from Ken yesterday.

0:21:13.550 --> 0:21:15.870
<v Speaker 10>I was at a dad's place in October a few

0:21:15.910 --> 0:21:19.440
<v Speaker 10>years ago. and I was having a chopper chop and

0:21:19.480 --> 0:21:22.760
<v Speaker 10>I fell asleep. In March of next year, I got

0:21:22.820 --> 0:21:27.320
<v Speaker 10>rushed to hospital. They thought I had appendicitis and they

0:21:27.360 --> 0:21:30.600
<v Speaker 10>said it'll just be keyhole surgery. I was cut from

0:21:31.100 --> 0:21:34.140
<v Speaker 10>all the way down. Five hours later, they took a

0:21:34.190 --> 0:21:35.920
<v Speaker 10>chopper chop stick out of my colon.

0:21:36.390 --> 0:21:42.110
<v Speaker 1>What a story from Ken. What a man. Chopper chop. What,

0:21:42.130 --> 0:21:43.730
<v Speaker 1>he fell asleep with one in his mouth?

0:21:44.660 --> 0:21:47.280
<v Speaker 2>Also, I ever get appendicitis, I'm going to say, look,

0:21:47.300 --> 0:21:50.300
<v Speaker 2>it's appendicitis or it's a chubber-chub. But get in there

0:21:50.320 --> 0:21:53.680
<v Speaker 2>and have a really good look. Don't presume it's appendicitis, okay?

0:21:53.780 --> 0:21:55.020
<v Speaker 2>It could be a chubber-chub.

0:21:55.040 --> 0:21:56.060
<v Speaker 5>Just as easily be a chubber-chub.

0:21:56.080 --> 0:21:57.260
<v Speaker 1>It could easily have been.

0:21:58.040 --> 0:22:00.020
<v Speaker 2>Some of the ones we had yesterday, Mark called who

0:22:00.040 --> 0:22:02.420
<v Speaker 2>swallowed a nail and had a slice of bread to

0:22:02.480 --> 0:22:03.500
<v Speaker 2>help wash it down.

0:22:03.520 --> 0:22:04.000
<v Speaker 1>Do you remember him?

0:22:04.400 --> 0:22:08.020
<v Speaker 2>And a pint of milk, I think. Sally, her daughter's dentist,

0:22:08.080 --> 0:22:12.100
<v Speaker 2>swallowed a head of a cleaning drill. So we're doing

0:22:12.140 --> 0:22:13.640
<v Speaker 2>a part two. If you've got any stories about what

0:22:13.660 --> 0:22:16.200
<v Speaker 2>have you accidentally swallowed, you can give us a call.

0:22:16.200 --> 0:22:19.790
<v Speaker 2>13 55 22. We're also looking for your stories. Where

0:22:19.880 --> 0:22:22.369
<v Speaker 2>have you run out of fuel? Maggie at the Red

0:22:22.410 --> 0:22:26.570
<v Speaker 2>Rooster drive-thru right after she received her meal. Bradley was

0:22:26.610 --> 0:22:29.190
<v Speaker 2>on a dirt road in Zambia, 50k away from their city.

0:22:29.530 --> 0:22:34.570
<v Speaker 2>Had to catch ox and cart to the nearest petrol station.

0:22:35.190 --> 0:22:37.350
<v Speaker 2>Jade was picked up by a guy on her first date.

0:22:37.440 --> 0:22:39.260
<v Speaker 2>He got around the corner, ran out of fuel. She

0:22:39.280 --> 0:22:41.990
<v Speaker 2>walked home, had a frozen dinner. And never saw him again.

0:22:42.790 --> 0:22:45.530
<v Speaker 2>What a sliding doors moment. And Richard ran out of

0:22:45.570 --> 0:22:47.350
<v Speaker 2>fuel just as he was about to pull into the

0:22:47.390 --> 0:22:51.350
<v Speaker 2>petrol station. The car literally rolled silently into the forecourt,

0:22:51.630 --> 0:22:54.040
<v Speaker 2>stopped at the pump. He went from, oh, no, moment

0:22:54.070 --> 0:22:56.760
<v Speaker 2>to a legend. All within a couple of seconds.

0:22:57.060 --> 0:22:59.740
<v Speaker 3>The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

0:23:00.100 --> 0:23:02.160
<v Speaker 1>Good morning. It's the Christian O'Connell Show on guard.

0:23:02.180 --> 0:23:05.740
<v Speaker 2>Christian, listening to Ken's chup-a-chup story, maybe you wonder if

0:23:06.120 --> 0:23:07.320
<v Speaker 2>Ken would have produced.

0:23:07.020 --> 0:23:09.320
<v Speaker 1>A cough delight poop popsicle.

0:23:09.920 --> 0:23:09.980
<v Speaker 5>No.

0:23:11.150 --> 0:23:12.490
<v Speaker 2>Richard, keep those kind of thoughts to yourself if you

0:23:12.510 --> 0:23:14.850
<v Speaker 2>don't mind, mate. Christian, I ran out of fuel on

0:23:14.870 --> 0:23:18.310
<v Speaker 2>my learners while on the highway. Didn't know where the

0:23:18.350 --> 0:23:21.550
<v Speaker 2>fuel gauge was. My mum was fuming. A lovely guy

0:23:21.590 --> 0:23:25.010
<v Speaker 2>pulled over, towed us with rope, old school, to the

0:23:25.050 --> 0:23:28.130
<v Speaker 2>nearest fuel station. Never done it since. Christian, I think

0:23:28.170 --> 0:23:31.990
<v Speaker 2>I can top that chopper chop story. No one can

0:23:32.050 --> 0:23:32.530
<v Speaker 2>top that.

0:23:32.590 --> 0:23:32.869
<v Speaker 5>Good luck.

0:23:33.920 --> 0:23:37.540
<v Speaker 2>My brother swallowed a toothpick after one too many beers.

0:23:37.780 --> 0:23:40.060
<v Speaker 2>Clearly he ate the whole canapé. He was somewhere with

0:23:40.100 --> 0:23:40.740
<v Speaker 2>weird symptoms.

0:23:40.980 --> 0:23:42.360
<v Speaker 1>He ate the whole canapé? Yeah.

0:23:43.700 --> 0:23:44.720
<v Speaker 5>I'll take this arancini.

0:23:44.880 --> 0:23:49.300
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. What? Ouch.

0:23:49.520 --> 0:23:51.300
<v Speaker 2>He can beat it with this story. I don't think

0:23:51.340 --> 0:23:53.920
<v Speaker 2>he's beaten it. I think he's gone another whole nother way.

0:23:55.460 --> 0:23:56.040
<v Speaker 1>I'll continue.

0:23:56.800 --> 0:23:58.820
<v Speaker 2>My brother swallowed a toothpick once after too many beers.

0:23:58.900 --> 0:24:01.460
<v Speaker 2>Clearly he ate the whole canapé. That's something a dog

0:24:01.480 --> 0:24:01.780
<v Speaker 2>would do.

0:24:01.840 --> 0:24:03.139
<v Speaker 1>Isn't it?

0:24:04.420 --> 0:24:08.550
<v Speaker 2>He was unwell with weird symptoms for days. His appendix

0:24:08.580 --> 0:24:10.510
<v Speaker 2>was removed a couple of years prior.

0:24:10.670 --> 0:24:13.030
<v Speaker 1>It ruptured. He was very unwell. So he knew it

0:24:13.310 --> 0:24:13.870
<v Speaker 1>wasn't that.

0:24:13.930 --> 0:24:16.130
<v Speaker 2>Before going under to get it removed, the surgeon told

0:24:16.170 --> 0:24:20.970
<v Speaker 2>him he might have to have a complete reconstruction of

0:24:21.110 --> 0:24:23.990
<v Speaker 2>his stomach. Anyway, luckily he made it. They managed to

0:24:24.010 --> 0:24:26.870
<v Speaker 2>get it out. It took the surgeon apparently hours and

0:24:26.890 --> 0:24:27.720
<v Speaker 2>they were really annoyed.

0:24:27.740 --> 0:24:29.560
<v Speaker 5>You would be.

0:24:29.800 --> 0:24:31.810
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry. You'd just be annoyed.

0:24:32.190 --> 0:24:33.170
<v Speaker 5>Pretty avoidable incident.

0:24:33.190 --> 0:24:35.410
<v Speaker 1>This is avoidable. This is human error.

0:24:35.980 --> 0:24:37.760
<v Speaker 2>They don't get into it to sort those kind of

0:24:37.800 --> 0:24:39.800
<v Speaker 2>things out. All right.

0:24:39.840 --> 0:24:42.240
<v Speaker 1>Let's speak to Beck here. Morning, Beck.

0:24:43.380 --> 0:24:43.980
<v Speaker 5>Oh, hi there.

0:24:44.320 --> 0:24:45.820
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to the show, Beck. Thanks for calling.

0:24:46.860 --> 0:24:47.520
<v Speaker 8>That's okay.

0:24:48.820 --> 0:24:50.060
<v Speaker 1>And Beck, what's your story?

0:24:51.460 --> 0:24:54.040
<v Speaker 8>I ran out of fuel on the top of the

0:24:54.060 --> 0:24:56.000
<v Speaker 8>Westgate Bridge in Melbourne.

0:24:56.220 --> 0:24:56.740
<v Speaker 1>Very busy.

0:24:56.760 --> 0:24:57.399
<v Speaker 5>It was awful.

0:24:57.850 --> 0:25:01.150
<v Speaker 8>Very, very top of the bridge. And I had a

0:25:01.190 --> 0:25:05.370
<v Speaker 8>manual car at the time. So I just pulled into

0:25:05.390 --> 0:25:08.060
<v Speaker 8>the emergency because the fuel gauge didn't work very well.

0:25:08.080 --> 0:25:11.460
<v Speaker 2>We were going with that one.

0:25:11.520 --> 0:25:14.320
<v Speaker 1>Come on back. We're not married, but I'm not believing

0:25:14.340 --> 0:25:14.740
<v Speaker 1>that one.

0:25:15.160 --> 0:25:16.510
<v Speaker 8>It was an old car.

0:25:16.600 --> 0:25:17.160
<v Speaker 1>Get out of it.

0:25:17.160 --> 0:25:19.310
<v Speaker 8>It was an old car, and the fuel gauge went

0:25:19.450 --> 0:25:21.310
<v Speaker 8>up and down, so I never knew when I was

0:25:21.330 --> 0:25:21.770
<v Speaker 8>going to run.

0:25:21.710 --> 0:25:23.109
<v Speaker 1>Out of fuel. That's what happens when the fuel goes down.

0:25:23.170 --> 0:25:24.670
<v Speaker 1>I'll tell you what else goes up and down. The

0:25:24.710 --> 0:25:27.850
<v Speaker 1>fuel in the car. You fill it up, it goes down.

0:25:27.930 --> 0:25:32.649
<v Speaker 1>You fill it up. Still keeping that lie going, are we,

0:25:32.670 --> 0:25:34.980
<v Speaker 1>back now on national radio? Okay.

0:25:35.200 --> 0:25:39.220
<v Speaker 8>It's true, though. It's not a lie. And so I

0:25:39.260 --> 0:25:43.629
<v Speaker 8>pulled into the emergency lane, and... I just didn't know

0:25:43.670 --> 0:25:47.940
<v Speaker 8>what to do. So I thought if I pop it

0:25:47.980 --> 0:25:51.899
<v Speaker 8>in reverse, I can just reverse down the emergency lane.

0:25:51.960 --> 0:25:54.680
<v Speaker 1>No, no, no. You are kidding me. You thought the

0:25:54.780 --> 0:25:56.859
<v Speaker 1>only sensible option is to reverse.

0:25:56.880 --> 0:25:58.500
<v Speaker 5>I don't know what to do here, guys. Don't worry

0:25:59.460 --> 0:26:00.040
<v Speaker 5>about it.

0:26:00.080 --> 0:26:04.060
<v Speaker 2>The Westgate is like a major arterial mega bridge.

0:26:04.680 --> 0:26:06.580
<v Speaker 1>And it's like, what is it, like eight lanes? It's

0:26:06.600 --> 0:26:07.940
<v Speaker 1>like Mad Max territory.

0:26:08.840 --> 0:26:09.120
<v Speaker 10>Yeah.

0:26:09.500 --> 0:26:10.240
<v Speaker 1>So what happened?

0:26:11.440 --> 0:26:14.359
<v Speaker 8>So I figured that was what I was going to do,

0:26:14.400 --> 0:26:18.220
<v Speaker 8>so I popped it in reverse and reversed down the

0:26:18.360 --> 0:26:22.570
<v Speaker 8>emergency lane. But then I got halfway and I realised

0:26:22.710 --> 0:26:26.110
<v Speaker 8>and I remembered that manual cars don't have brakes when

0:26:26.170 --> 0:26:32.410
<v Speaker 8>you don't have the motor on. Yeah, so it got very,

0:26:32.710 --> 0:26:34.230
<v Speaker 8>very scary very quickly.

0:26:34.250 --> 0:26:36.050
<v Speaker 1>So what did you do? Did you try and put

0:26:36.070 --> 0:26:38.980
<v Speaker 1>it into first just to slow it? Or handbrake?

0:26:39.110 --> 0:26:39.820
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, handbrake.

0:26:41.820 --> 0:26:44.970
<v Speaker 8>Oh, it It all happened very quickly, I don't recall.

0:26:45.050 --> 0:26:46.790
<v Speaker 2>I feel like now you feel like you're in the

0:26:46.830 --> 0:26:48.450
<v Speaker 2>dock and we're like cross-exhaling you.

0:26:48.650 --> 0:26:51.870
<v Speaker 5>It all happened pretty quickly.

0:26:51.930 --> 0:26:53.330
<v Speaker 1>I'm just not sure.

0:26:54.070 --> 0:26:59.320
<v Speaker 8>It just got very, very, it all happened really quickly. Yeah, anyway,

0:26:59.340 --> 0:27:02.520
<v Speaker 8>so it got really fast coming down and I just

0:27:02.540 --> 0:27:06.280
<v Speaker 8>sort of like got a little bit airborne and landed

0:27:06.880 --> 0:27:08.220
<v Speaker 8>next to the petrol station.

0:27:09.080 --> 0:27:13.330
<v Speaker 1>Oh, my Lord. You might be giving us another airborne moment. Story.

0:27:13.790 --> 0:27:17.070
<v Speaker 1>When do you get airborne? On the Westgate in reverse?

0:27:17.370 --> 0:27:17.730
<v Speaker 8>No, no.

0:27:17.890 --> 0:27:20.910
<v Speaker 1>You're lucky you survived. We didn't cause an accident.

0:27:22.510 --> 0:27:24.170
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, very lucky, I guess.

0:27:24.480 --> 0:27:24.960
<v Speaker 1>Very lucky.

0:27:24.980 --> 0:27:25.700
<v Speaker 8>Yeah, very lucky.

0:27:26.240 --> 0:27:30.160
<v Speaker 9>A lot of avoidable human error on the show today.

0:27:32.960 --> 0:27:35.080
<v Speaker 1>Wowee. When was this back? A couple of years ago?

0:27:35.100 --> 0:27:38.800
<v Speaker 8>It would have been about 20 years ago. 20 years ago, yeah.

0:27:40.970 --> 0:27:43.370
<v Speaker 1>And no reversing down major sort of freeway since?

0:27:44.970 --> 0:27:48.110
<v Speaker 8>I don't think the Westgate has that emergency lane anymore.

0:27:48.590 --> 0:27:49.680
<v Speaker 5>I think they got rid of it.

0:27:49.840 --> 0:27:50.500
<v Speaker 1>The Beck moment.

0:27:50.760 --> 0:27:52.820
<v Speaker 2>The moment they saw someone on the camera reversing down

0:27:52.880 --> 0:27:57.780
<v Speaker 2>it at speed with no braking available. Getting airborne. Getting

0:27:57.960 --> 0:28:05.690
<v Speaker 2>airborne like the Joseph Hazard style. Beck, Beck, thank you

0:28:05.710 --> 0:28:06.610
<v Speaker 2>very much for calling, Beck.

0:28:06.650 --> 0:28:07.190
<v Speaker 1>Have a good day.

0:28:07.250 --> 0:28:09.270
<v Speaker 8>Take care. Okay, bye.

0:28:09.390 --> 0:28:11.130
<v Speaker 1>And remember, Beth, that fuel gauge was on the blink.

0:28:13.450 --> 0:28:15.260
<v Speaker 3>The Christian O'Connell Show.

0:28:15.280 --> 0:28:15.980
<v Speaker 1>Go on.

0:28:16.330 --> 0:28:17.170
<v Speaker 3>Podcast.

0:28:17.780 --> 0:28:21.400
<v Speaker 2>More text still coming in about good old homebrew. Christian,

0:28:21.420 --> 0:28:25.420
<v Speaker 2>my Uncle Bill. I just know Uncle Bill's love of homebrew.

0:28:25.880 --> 0:28:28.800
<v Speaker 2>God rest his soul. He's gone to that great homebrew.

0:28:28.580 --> 0:28:29.240
<v Speaker 1>In the sky, has he?

0:28:32.060 --> 0:28:34.140
<v Speaker 2>He used to brew his homebrew in the old sheds.

0:28:34.840 --> 0:28:38.020
<v Speaker 2>His motto was, good enough to bottle, good enough to drink.

0:28:39.840 --> 0:28:40.780
<v Speaker 2>That's not a catchphrase.

0:28:40.820 --> 0:28:41.540
<v Speaker 1>That's a warning.

0:28:42.560 --> 0:28:45.860
<v Speaker 2>My cousins were late starters drinking beer as they thought

0:28:45.900 --> 0:28:50.360
<v Speaker 2>that's how all beer tasted. What a great way to

0:28:50.530 --> 0:28:53.490
<v Speaker 2>offer young kids. This is how stuff in the pub drinks.

0:28:53.690 --> 0:28:56.650
<v Speaker 2>It's how it tastes. Christian, signs you're an adult when

0:28:57.070 --> 0:28:59.590
<v Speaker 2>house birthday parties when you were younger with mates had

0:28:59.650 --> 0:29:03.750
<v Speaker 2>no responsibilities and were fun now are just surrounded with

0:29:03.790 --> 0:29:07.420
<v Speaker 2>your kids and your kids' mates. Santo, yes, I get

0:29:07.560 --> 0:29:11.110
<v Speaker 2>all of that. Signs you're an adult I had one Sunday.

0:29:11.590 --> 0:29:15.810
<v Speaker 2>So Melbourne Airport is kind of a unique airport. It

0:29:16.850 --> 0:29:19.750
<v Speaker 2>doesn't make it easy to be used.

0:29:19.890 --> 0:29:20.730
<v Speaker 5>I know, it's incredibly complicated.

0:29:20.970 --> 0:29:24.150
<v Speaker 2>A major international airport, first of all, with no train link.

0:29:24.670 --> 0:29:27.340
<v Speaker 2>You know, when I have friends come over from England,

0:29:27.380 --> 0:29:28.960
<v Speaker 2>I go, you know, you have a great time in Melbourne.

0:29:30.060 --> 0:29:31.840
<v Speaker 2>And then Sydney, they've got the train there. You can

0:29:31.860 --> 0:29:34.280
<v Speaker 2>go straight into, I'd advise you go into Circular Quay,

0:29:34.300 --> 0:29:35.080
<v Speaker 2>get the train straight in.

0:29:35.420 --> 0:29:37.380
<v Speaker 1>It opens up. You see that one of the great views.

0:29:37.880 --> 0:29:40.420
<v Speaker 1>And Melbourne just doesn't have a train station. No train link.

0:29:40.480 --> 0:29:43.160
<v Speaker 1>It's bizarre. And it's a busy international airport.

0:29:43.570 --> 0:29:46.330
<v Speaker 2>Anyway, if you've ever used Melbourne Airport, pick up and

0:29:46.390 --> 0:29:48.590
<v Speaker 2>drop off of that strange, mysterious ramp.

0:29:49.060 --> 0:29:50.740
<v Speaker 1>It could get a bit testy.

0:29:50.810 --> 0:29:53.180
<v Speaker 5>And it gets changed around a lot. They're constantly moving

0:29:53.220 --> 0:29:53.960
<v Speaker 5>you around the airport.

0:29:54.500 --> 0:29:58.520
<v Speaker 2>So anyway, last week they announced that they're changing it completely.

0:29:58.540 --> 0:29:59.900
<v Speaker 2>And of course, everyone was like, I wonder what it's

0:29:59.920 --> 0:30:01.700
<v Speaker 2>going to be like. I have to be honest. I

0:30:01.740 --> 0:30:04.700
<v Speaker 2>used it suddenly for the first time. It was incredible.

0:30:05.320 --> 0:30:06.980
<v Speaker 2>So much so, and this is a sign you're an adult,

0:30:07.680 --> 0:30:11.600
<v Speaker 2>I couldn't keep this zest and joy at using the

0:30:11.660 --> 0:30:14.750
<v Speaker 2>new wide walkways with spaces for people to sit down

0:30:14.790 --> 0:30:17.130
<v Speaker 2>and hang out and have a coffee. It was so

0:30:17.190 --> 0:30:20.170
<v Speaker 2>beautifully done. A walkway, the lights up green to let

0:30:20.190 --> 0:30:22.710
<v Speaker 2>you know where to go. I texted you guys in

0:30:22.730 --> 0:30:25.750
<v Speaker 2>the group chat and I texted my family chat as well.

0:30:27.070 --> 0:30:32.040
<v Speaker 2>No one replied in my family chat. They're like, and

0:30:32.080 --> 0:30:36.950
<v Speaker 2>this guy has a radio show. It was pleasing to use.

0:30:37.390 --> 0:30:40.120
<v Speaker 2>And I'm not being paid. I'm just being, it's so

0:30:40.180 --> 0:30:43.000
<v Speaker 2>easy just to knock things down these days. Whoever put

0:30:43.020 --> 0:30:45.040
<v Speaker 2>a lot of work in for that, it actually was

0:30:45.280 --> 0:30:46.080
<v Speaker 2>easier to use.

0:30:46.600 --> 0:30:47.240
<v Speaker 1>It was brilliant.

0:30:47.360 --> 0:30:49.480
<v Speaker 5>It was so good. And as soon as I went

0:30:49.520 --> 0:30:50.500
<v Speaker 5>through it, I texted back.

0:30:50.820 --> 0:30:53.970
<v Speaker 1>Oh, you're right. How about that new drop off?

0:30:54.270 --> 0:30:58.010
<v Speaker 5>How about the traffic flow? No congestion.

0:30:58.030 --> 0:31:00.170
<v Speaker 11>That's exactly what we did as well, Zem and my

0:31:00.210 --> 0:31:02.890
<v Speaker 11>partner and I. We were, as we were coming in,

0:31:02.950 --> 0:31:05.590
<v Speaker 11>this is a sign you're not an adult, you're preparing

0:31:05.630 --> 0:31:07.970
<v Speaker 11>to go, I have an opinion on this and I

0:31:08.010 --> 0:31:09.050
<v Speaker 11>think it's fantastic.

0:31:09.250 --> 0:31:10.870
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, we're in the opinion years. Yeah.

0:31:11.150 --> 0:31:14.440
<v Speaker 2>You have a lot of opinions and opinions on opinions

0:31:14.520 --> 0:31:16.600
<v Speaker 2>and other people's opinions. It has to wear the word

0:31:16.660 --> 0:31:19.180
<v Speaker 2>right now though as well. Patsy, I'm getting excited for

0:31:19.200 --> 0:31:20.600
<v Speaker 2>when you next use Melbourne Airport.

0:31:20.860 --> 0:31:23.520
<v Speaker 4>I know, yeah, coming up to, it won't probably be

0:31:23.540 --> 0:31:25.860
<v Speaker 4>until Christmas time but I am looking forward to it

0:31:25.880 --> 0:31:28.150
<v Speaker 4>because it feels like they drop you off in like

0:31:28.210 --> 0:31:31.240
<v Speaker 4>three suburbs before you get there. It's like, It's such

0:31:31.280 --> 0:31:34.220
<v Speaker 4>a huge walk, so I think it's well overdue.

0:31:34.240 --> 0:31:37.060
<v Speaker 1>I can't wait. Caitlin's got a great one for signs

0:31:37.100 --> 0:31:37.520
<v Speaker 1>you're an adult.

0:31:37.540 --> 0:31:37.720
<v Speaker 3>Yes.

0:31:37.740 --> 0:31:40.020
<v Speaker 1>This fear is real at a certain age.

0:31:40.240 --> 0:31:42.270
<v Speaker 11>So this happened at the weekend. We went away with

0:31:42.300 --> 0:31:44.910
<v Speaker 11>a couple of girlfriends and we had.

0:31:44.970 --> 0:31:46.710
<v Speaker 1>And judging by that shirt today, were you line dancing?

0:31:46.890 --> 0:31:47.950
<v Speaker 1>Excuse me.

0:31:47.970 --> 0:31:51.070
<v Speaker 11>This is a vintage t-shirt from Japan.

0:31:51.470 --> 0:31:52.230
<v Speaker 5>Oh, wow.

0:31:52.250 --> 0:31:52.370
<v Speaker 3>Japan.

0:31:52.530 --> 0:32:01.400
<v Speaker 1>Konnichiwa. This is fashion. I didn't know Japan had eight

0:32:01.540 --> 0:32:04.530
<v Speaker 1>A's at the end of it. Japan.

0:32:05.670 --> 0:32:07.050
<v Speaker 5>Anyway, we were staying on this beautiful.

0:32:07.070 --> 0:32:09.310
<v Speaker 1>You actually got your thumbs in your belt loops, eh?

0:32:09.610 --> 0:32:10.370
<v Speaker 5>There you go.

0:32:10.430 --> 0:32:14.550
<v Speaker 1>Hey, do-si-do. Take your banner by the hand. Sorry. Come on.

0:32:14.590 --> 0:32:16.410
<v Speaker 1>Come on. You were line dancing on the weekend.

0:32:16.480 --> 0:32:18.140
<v Speaker 5>So we had this beautiful paddock.

0:32:18.440 --> 0:32:21.580
<v Speaker 11>So we had about, you know, a massive, massive backyard.

0:32:21.600 --> 0:32:23.820
<v Speaker 11>We had cows to the left, sheep to the right.

0:32:23.840 --> 0:32:24.520
<v Speaker 5>It was stunning.

0:32:24.830 --> 0:32:27.500
<v Speaker 11>And as we walked out, one of my girlfriends turned

0:32:27.540 --> 0:32:31.320
<v Speaker 11>to us and said, ladies, just an FYI, the ground

0:32:31.380 --> 0:32:34.160
<v Speaker 11>is very uneven here. So just watch out for your ankles.

0:32:34.780 --> 0:32:37.080
<v Speaker 11>And that was, everyone was like, oh, thank you so much.

0:32:37.100 --> 0:32:39.060
<v Speaker 11>Because you could, you just could start.

0:32:38.840 --> 0:32:40.560
<v Speaker 5>Going for a run, roll anything.

0:32:40.580 --> 0:32:42.780
<v Speaker 2>The fear of rolling an ankle now, or when you

0:32:42.800 --> 0:32:45.280
<v Speaker 2>just roll an ankle slightly, the fear that you've broken it,

0:32:45.300 --> 0:32:47.640
<v Speaker 2>you know, this is six to nine months now of

0:32:47.690 --> 0:32:48.990
<v Speaker 2>dealing with a bust ankle.

0:32:49.430 --> 0:32:50.670
<v Speaker 1>It's a real fear, isn't it?

0:32:50.870 --> 0:32:51.230
<v Speaker 3>It is.

0:32:51.670 --> 0:32:53.210
<v Speaker 11>And then, like, if you're the first to go ahead

0:32:53.250 --> 0:32:55.190
<v Speaker 11>and you go downstairs or something, you always turn to

0:32:55.230 --> 0:32:56.850
<v Speaker 11>your friends and go, there's stairs here.

0:32:57.110 --> 0:32:59.570
<v Speaker 5>There's stairs here. You're going to have to step down.

0:32:59.750 --> 0:33:04.310
<v Speaker 2>Guys, it's like your moral middle-aged responsibility. Hey, guys, maybe

0:33:04.330 --> 0:33:08.110
<v Speaker 2>we attach a rope to each other. Going up to, like,

0:33:08.150 --> 0:33:10.090
<v Speaker 2>the top level of a sports stadium.

0:33:09.750 --> 0:33:12.020
<v Speaker 1>As well now. Just guys, guys, guys, stay as one.

0:33:12.040 --> 0:33:14.580
<v Speaker 1>We walk as one. Or if you see anything that's

0:33:14.640 --> 0:33:16.470
<v Speaker 1>slippery as well. Oh, careful of that.

0:33:16.510 --> 0:33:19.690
<v Speaker 2>Someone spilt some water there. You will actually, when you

0:33:19.730 --> 0:33:21.790
<v Speaker 2>get a certain age, go and tell people in the supermarket, hey,

0:33:21.810 --> 0:33:24.550
<v Speaker 2>there's something spilt on the floor there. That is a

0:33:24.670 --> 0:33:28.790
<v Speaker 2>trap for humans. Someone could lose their life there. Please

0:33:28.810 --> 0:33:29.790
<v Speaker 2>do something about that.

0:33:30.310 --> 0:33:33.650
<v Speaker 3>The Christian O'Connell Show podcast. All right.

0:33:33.710 --> 0:33:35.530
<v Speaker 2>Signed, Joan Adolph. Thank you very much to everyone who's

0:33:35.570 --> 0:33:38.070
<v Speaker 2>been sending these in. Christian, by the way, I had

0:33:38.090 --> 0:33:40.370
<v Speaker 2>an Italian dad. He didn't make homebrew beer. It was

0:33:40.460 --> 0:33:41.830
<v Speaker 2>homebrew vino.

0:33:43.270 --> 0:33:44.770
<v Speaker 1>Oh, sharp.

0:33:47.730 --> 0:33:52.090
<v Speaker 2>I remember it was quite tarty, Christian, quite tarty. You

0:33:52.110 --> 0:33:58.530
<v Speaker 2>know when you're an adult, Christian, we start stretching before bed. Sanjana,

0:33:58.550 --> 0:34:00.770
<v Speaker 2>one of the main reasons on a sunny day you

0:34:00.910 --> 0:34:03.090
<v Speaker 2>would get excited is you think about the washing, how

0:34:03.110 --> 0:34:06.510
<v Speaker 2>many loads you can do and be dry. Christian, Sanjana,

0:34:07.490 --> 0:34:10.169
<v Speaker 2>I get super excited now about a trip to Chemist Warehouse.

0:34:10.940 --> 0:34:15.250
<v Speaker 1>That's from Ryan. You're right. It's like Disneyland for grownups.

0:34:16.290 --> 0:34:18.489
<v Speaker 1>I was in my local one over the weekend, actually.

0:34:18.529 --> 0:34:20.810
<v Speaker 2>I saw, I think this came up last week on

0:34:20.830 --> 0:34:23.330
<v Speaker 2>this feature about, you know, science, you know, that when

0:34:23.350 --> 0:34:26.330
<v Speaker 2>you have all your vitamin pills, you got that the seven.

0:34:26.109 --> 0:34:29.629
<v Speaker 1>Day week a.m. p.m. or your pill dispenser. We should

0:34:29.649 --> 0:34:33.549
<v Speaker 1>get some made up show branded ones. Oh, yes. You know,

0:34:33.609 --> 0:34:34.980
<v Speaker 1>we know where our audience are.

0:34:35.109 --> 0:34:35.879
<v Speaker 5>We'll meet you there.

0:34:35.899 --> 0:34:39.319
<v Speaker 2>We'll meet you there. The vitamin dispenser. Every morning and

0:34:39.339 --> 0:34:42.140
<v Speaker 2>then your bedtime ones. You're using your magnesium.

0:34:42.160 --> 0:34:42.619
<v Speaker 5>Aren't you?

0:34:42.980 --> 0:34:45.419
<v Speaker 1>And your L-theanine. Get your L's in.

0:34:45.839 --> 0:34:48.259
<v Speaker 2>Christian, you also, big one, you realize you're an adult

0:34:48.279 --> 0:34:50.579
<v Speaker 2>when you don't refer to falling over.

0:34:50.960 --> 0:34:54.629
<v Speaker 1>Instead, you say you've had a fall. Your idea changes.

0:34:55.190 --> 0:34:57.109
<v Speaker 1>It's more of a serious statement, isn't it?

0:34:57.129 --> 0:34:57.570
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, definitely.

0:34:57.690 --> 0:34:59.830
<v Speaker 1>You've got to issue a statement. They've had a fall.

0:34:59.890 --> 0:35:00.410
<v Speaker 1>Have you heard?

0:35:00.790 --> 0:35:05.289
<v Speaker 2>They've had a nasty fall. And that's from Catherine. All right,

0:35:05.350 --> 0:35:07.190
<v Speaker 2>coming up next, then, we've got the news of sport.

0:35:07.460 --> 0:35:09.520
<v Speaker 2>And then we want your stories about things you won

0:35:09.700 --> 0:35:10.119
<v Speaker 2>as a kid.

0:35:10.440 --> 0:35:13.120
<v Speaker 3>The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

0:35:13.580 --> 0:35:15.439
<v Speaker 2>Taking you back to your school days now. What did

0:35:15.480 --> 0:35:22.260
<v Speaker 2>you win as a kid? Congratulations to Tim. Wow, he's goated, guys. Christian,

0:35:22.279 --> 0:35:24.580
<v Speaker 2>I won our school Easter bonnet parade.

0:35:24.759 --> 0:35:27.299
<v Speaker 1>Oh, I remember those. Yes.

0:35:28.109 --> 0:35:29.630
<v Speaker 2>Every kid in the school at Easter time would have

0:35:29.649 --> 0:35:31.769
<v Speaker 2>to make a hat and then the class would parade

0:35:31.830 --> 0:35:33.390
<v Speaker 2>around the assembly yard.

0:35:33.370 --> 0:35:34.230
<v Speaker 1>From the whole school.

0:35:34.290 --> 0:35:36.549
<v Speaker 2>Teachers would pick the best hat in each class.

0:35:36.569 --> 0:35:39.130
<v Speaker 1>The winners would then vie for best in show.

0:35:39.149 --> 0:35:42.989
<v Speaker 2>Christian, I'm proud to say I won overall best bonnets

0:35:43.509 --> 0:35:48.700
<v Speaker 2>and received three Easter eggs. That is some powerful claim

0:35:48.719 --> 0:35:53.870
<v Speaker 2>to fame there, Timbo. Very good. Christian, I won a

0:35:53.950 --> 0:35:58.370
<v Speaker 2>Game Boy on the old Master Paddle Pop sticks.

0:35:58.890 --> 0:36:00.680
<v Speaker 5>Oh, those things, yes.

0:36:00.739 --> 0:36:03.419
<v Speaker 2>But before I could post them off, the dog ate one.

0:36:04.200 --> 0:36:05.379
<v Speaker 1>I won it, never got it.

0:36:06.460 --> 0:36:08.620
<v Speaker 5>I wondered if people actually won those or if it

0:36:08.660 --> 0:36:09.200
<v Speaker 5>was a scam.

0:36:09.219 --> 0:36:09.290
<v Speaker 11>Yes.

0:36:09.299 --> 0:36:12.229
<v Speaker 9>Because you only always ever won another Paddle Pop if

0:36:12.250 --> 0:36:12.730
<v Speaker 9>you're lucky.

0:36:12.799 --> 0:36:14.969
<v Speaker 6>There's a great Reddit thread about this of people that

0:36:15.009 --> 0:36:17.690
<v Speaker 6>did win and actually, it was almost.

0:36:17.310 --> 0:36:18.569
<v Speaker 5>Very impossible back in the day.

0:36:18.589 --> 0:36:21.029
<v Speaker 6>You had to travel interstate because they'd send different Paddle

0:36:21.049 --> 0:36:22.309
<v Speaker 6>Pop stuff into different states.

0:36:22.350 --> 0:36:23.560
<v Speaker 1>You're kidding.

0:36:23.589 --> 0:36:25.399
<v Speaker 5>That is great. Is that right?

0:36:25.440 --> 0:36:25.780
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:36:25.799 --> 0:36:28.359
<v Speaker 1>Dig out that thread. I will, absolutely. Let's share it

0:36:28.379 --> 0:36:28.859
<v Speaker 1>on air this week.

0:36:29.120 --> 0:36:30.859
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I always wonder, you know when you see that

0:36:31.180 --> 0:36:33.160
<v Speaker 2>sort of souped up sports car.

0:36:33.000 --> 0:36:35.579
<v Speaker 1>At the airport? Does anyone ever win one of those?

0:36:36.080 --> 0:36:39.700
<v Speaker 2>Is anyone driving right now in Melbourne or Sydney and

0:36:39.739 --> 0:36:42.459
<v Speaker 2>won those cars? They won at an airport lottery. I

0:36:42.560 --> 0:36:47.109
<v Speaker 2>always see them. It's only guys that are susceptible. That

0:36:47.190 --> 0:36:49.589
<v Speaker 2>could be mine. I'm probably going to be driving back

0:36:49.669 --> 0:36:52.149
<v Speaker 2>home in that car. How do they get them in

0:36:52.190 --> 0:36:52.770
<v Speaker 2>the airport?

0:36:52.870 --> 0:36:56.019
<v Speaker 1>I always wonder that too. Where are the lifts? I

0:36:56.040 --> 0:36:56.580
<v Speaker 1>walked in.

0:36:56.620 --> 0:36:58.399
<v Speaker 2>There's no way you've got to go upstairs to get

0:36:58.460 --> 0:37:03.140
<v Speaker 2>in here. How are they getting through a Lamborghini? So

0:37:03.259 --> 0:37:06.000
<v Speaker 2>the reason why we're doing this is Pete was talking

0:37:06.080 --> 0:37:08.880
<v Speaker 2>on yesterday's show, Pete was chatting yesterday, and it came

0:37:08.960 --> 0:37:12.739
<v Speaker 2>out that you actually are a champion level siphoner?

0:37:13.020 --> 0:37:13.620
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, that's right.

0:37:13.660 --> 0:37:14.499
<v Speaker 1>Of fuel. Fuel.

0:37:14.540 --> 0:37:14.800
<v Speaker 7>Fueling.

0:37:14.839 --> 0:37:16.930
<v Speaker 6>Back in the day, it was for some reason, I

0:37:16.969 --> 0:37:19.870
<v Speaker 6>think dads of the 80s and 90s, it was basically,

0:37:19.910 --> 0:37:21.029
<v Speaker 6>if you want to be a man, you need to

0:37:21.069 --> 0:37:22.350
<v Speaker 6>learn how to siphon fuel.

0:37:22.629 --> 0:37:23.109
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:37:23.250 --> 0:37:26.589
<v Speaker 6>And at the Hatesbury show in Simpson, Victoria, there was

0:37:26.629 --> 0:37:27.629
<v Speaker 6>a siphoning competition.

0:37:27.669 --> 0:37:29.390
<v Speaker 5>Now, I was trying to remember, I was about eight,

0:37:29.589 --> 0:37:30.210
<v Speaker 5>nine or 10 years.

0:37:30.770 --> 0:37:35.410
<v Speaker 6>And basically, the competition was 10 cars pulled up, 10

0:37:35.410 --> 0:37:36.410
<v Speaker 6>old Coke bottles.

0:37:36.430 --> 0:37:38.609
<v Speaker 1>It was like 1.5 litres. That's pretty big.

0:37:38.629 --> 0:37:42.200
<v Speaker 6>But I did remember last night there was controversy because

0:37:42.239 --> 0:37:44.980
<v Speaker 6>then there was someone saying that, Oh, no, but diesel

0:37:45.020 --> 0:37:46.039
<v Speaker 6>goes faster through.

0:37:46.120 --> 0:37:49.960
<v Speaker 1>It's like thinner than unleaded fuel. Oh, no, not siphon fixing.

0:37:50.200 --> 0:37:50.510
<v Speaker 5>That was one.

0:37:50.600 --> 0:37:51.759
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I know, right?

0:37:51.799 --> 0:37:53.120
<v Speaker 6>There was a lot of things like that were going on.

0:37:53.379 --> 0:37:55.219
<v Speaker 6>But I won it, so I became the champion.

0:37:56.279 --> 0:37:59.700
<v Speaker 2>So you're under 10, you're with other kids, siphoning fuel

0:38:00.020 --> 0:38:01.340
<v Speaker 2>out of fuel tanks.

0:38:01.419 --> 0:38:02.459
<v Speaker 5>It's so ridiculous.

0:38:03.040 --> 0:38:04.799
<v Speaker 1>Honestly, it is. It is insane.

0:38:04.899 --> 0:38:09.709
<v Speaker 5>Is it still going? No, it's definitely not going. No, no, no.

0:38:09.790 --> 0:38:12.549
<v Speaker 1>We know a lot more now. You can't be doing that.

0:38:12.669 --> 0:38:13.089
<v Speaker 1>I know.

0:38:13.210 --> 0:38:17.169
<v Speaker 2>I bet there was gambling and betting on it as well. Oh, 100%.

0:38:17.169 --> 0:38:20.770
<v Speaker 6>Because years later, they invented cow shit bingo, which is amazing.

0:38:20.810 --> 0:38:21.570
<v Speaker 5>Sorry for swearing.

0:38:21.830 --> 0:38:23.969
<v Speaker 1>No, no. The farmers do this in the UK.

0:38:24.009 --> 0:38:24.810
<v Speaker 5>Is it great?

0:38:24.830 --> 0:38:25.690
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, no, no. Genius.

0:38:25.870 --> 0:38:28.190
<v Speaker 6>A little square each. You pay $ 100, you might win

0:38:28.190 --> 0:38:30.070
<v Speaker 6>$ 10, 000 if the cow poos on your square. But you

0:38:30.089 --> 0:38:31.479
<v Speaker 6>drink or you can drink for two hours.

0:38:31.790 --> 0:38:32.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:38:32.040 --> 0:38:33.039
<v Speaker 5>Sorry, I'm sidetracked.

0:38:33.100 --> 0:38:35.879
<v Speaker 1>Cow bingo. Now, Rion, I'm guessing you won something as

0:38:35.940 --> 0:38:36.200
<v Speaker 1>a kid.

0:38:36.359 --> 0:38:38.839
<v Speaker 9>Yes, I peaked at the age of eight. There used

0:38:38.879 --> 0:38:41.219
<v Speaker 9>to be a show all Australian millennials would be very

0:38:41.279 --> 0:38:47.040
<v Speaker 9>familiar with, Cheese TV. It started at seven o'clock in

0:38:47.060 --> 0:38:48.859
<v Speaker 9>the morning. You'd get up before school. If you got

0:38:48.899 --> 0:38:52.649
<v Speaker 9>up early enough before that, there was the sort of vaguely,

0:38:53.460 --> 0:38:55.410
<v Speaker 9>I don't know how to put it, but there was aerobics.

0:38:55.469 --> 0:38:58.669
<v Speaker 1>It was.

0:38:59.009 --> 0:39:01.109
<v Speaker 2>I mean, nothing like the horror of the stuff you

0:39:01.129 --> 0:39:06.609
<v Speaker 2>see online these days. That's what's... mild, I guess, pornography was.

0:39:07.270 --> 0:39:10.000
<v Speaker 2>That's all there was available, those top shelf magazines at

0:39:10.020 --> 0:39:10.629
<v Speaker 2>the servos.

0:39:11.600 --> 0:39:13.419
<v Speaker 9>It was called Oz Aerobics and they would go down

0:39:13.480 --> 0:39:15.779
<v Speaker 9>like in front of Sydney Harbour or Manly Beach or

0:39:15.799 --> 0:39:17.739
<v Speaker 9>something and just sort of exercise. You'd get up, you'd

0:39:17.779 --> 0:39:19.740
<v Speaker 9>watch that. Cheese TV would come on at seven.

0:39:19.940 --> 0:39:21.399
<v Speaker 1>You watched that as a horny kid?

0:39:21.620 --> 0:39:23.200
<v Speaker 5>That was not a horny kid, thank you.

0:39:23.279 --> 0:39:27.260
<v Speaker 2>It sounds like it was appointment TV for you and

0:39:27.379 --> 0:39:28.460
<v Speaker 2>you weren't into Taibo.

0:39:29.319 --> 0:39:31.870
<v Speaker 1>Or calisthenetics of a different nature.

0:39:31.950 --> 0:39:34.189
<v Speaker 5>I was just trying to get my flexibility up.

0:39:34.210 --> 0:39:38.209
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, sure, yeah. Okay, yeah. Junior Kegels, were you

0:39:38.270 --> 0:39:43.940
<v Speaker 1>as a child? I'm on to you, grubby. Anyway. Anyway, anyway. Anyway,

0:39:43.960 --> 0:39:45.100
<v Speaker 1>you got your leggings on.

0:39:45.120 --> 0:39:47.700
<v Speaker 5>I have my leggings on, yeah, my fluffy socks.

0:39:47.719 --> 0:39:49.640
<v Speaker 1>Your little mini trampoline, the old trampette.

0:39:50.339 --> 0:39:50.459
<v Speaker 3>What?

0:39:51.680 --> 0:39:54.040
<v Speaker 9>And GCB would come on and they had a segment

0:39:54.100 --> 0:39:55.939
<v Speaker 9>called Letter of the Week where you'd send in, you know,

0:39:56.000 --> 0:39:56.819
<v Speaker 9>your fan mail.

0:39:56.879 --> 0:39:57.939
<v Speaker 5>And I sent one in.

0:39:57.960 --> 0:39:58.680
<v Speaker 1>What a nerd.

0:39:58.919 --> 0:40:03.020
<v Speaker 2>What young kid is writing letters?

0:40:03.120 --> 0:40:05.020
<v Speaker 1>Daddy, bring me my quail egg.

0:40:05.040 --> 0:40:05.979
<v Speaker 5>Pots run out.

0:40:06.259 --> 0:40:08.260
<v Speaker 1>First I'm a horny dude, now I'm a nerd.

0:40:08.299 --> 0:40:08.879
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, you are.

0:40:08.899 --> 0:40:11.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, all of that. Double threat.

0:40:13.060 --> 0:40:15.540
<v Speaker 5>And I did a drawing of the hosts, Jade and Ryan,

0:40:15.680 --> 0:40:16.620
<v Speaker 5>as Pokemon.

0:40:16.700 --> 0:40:18.239
<v Speaker 1>Oh, phew. I thought you were going to say, doing

0:40:18.259 --> 0:40:20.839
<v Speaker 1>your own aerobics. Cosplay.

0:40:22.029 --> 0:40:25.729
<v Speaker 9>And I won a Dragon Ball Z VHS box set.

0:40:25.810 --> 0:40:26.389
<v Speaker 1>Get here.

0:40:26.629 --> 0:40:28.540
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, which was pretty big for back in the day.

0:40:28.629 --> 0:40:30.879
<v Speaker 2>You must have been so excited. To win something off

0:40:30.940 --> 0:40:32.319
<v Speaker 2>TV as a kid was huge.

0:40:32.440 --> 0:40:33.140
<v Speaker 5>Crazy, yeah.

0:40:33.180 --> 0:40:35.259
<v Speaker 9>I just wish we taped it or something like that.

0:40:35.299 --> 0:40:37.739
<v Speaker 9>Because that was probably one of the highlights of my

0:40:37.819 --> 0:40:39.200
<v Speaker 9>life now that I think about it.

0:40:39.339 --> 0:40:44.660
<v Speaker 1>Do you remember? Kids TV used to be 95% filler. Oh, yes. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

0:40:44.839 --> 0:40:49.320
<v Speaker 1>Every episode, there'd be... bad art from dumb kids.

0:40:49.379 --> 0:40:50.600
<v Speaker 5>Do you remember?

0:40:51.080 --> 0:40:53.600
<v Speaker 1>That would fail 10 minutes.

0:40:53.680 --> 0:40:56.180
<v Speaker 5>Mine wasn't bad art though. No, no, no.

0:40:56.219 --> 0:40:59.779
<v Speaker 2>That's why you were a cut above. The runners up

0:41:00.299 --> 0:41:03.480
<v Speaker 2>that weren't as gifted with pen as you were. Legendary

0:41:03.540 --> 0:41:07.580
<v Speaker 2>pen ships. Why had to be recognized on TV? I

0:41:07.620 --> 0:41:11.700
<v Speaker 2>won a joke competition on TV when I was 10.

0:41:11.700 --> 0:41:13.700
<v Speaker 2>You just had to send a joke in and my

0:41:13.739 --> 0:41:17.620
<v Speaker 2>joke was why didn't the, it's awful, Um, why didn't

0:41:17.640 --> 0:41:19.059
<v Speaker 2>the fig go out with the prune?

0:41:19.620 --> 0:41:23.380
<v Speaker 1>Why? Because she already had a date. That's good.

0:41:23.399 --> 0:41:25.649
<v Speaker 2>You know, and I, I remember winning, it was a

0:41:25.750 --> 0:41:28.589
<v Speaker 2>VHS copy of Rocky four.

0:41:29.089 --> 0:41:29.829
<v Speaker 5>Oh, that's cool.

0:41:30.069 --> 0:41:33.890
<v Speaker 1>Oh, no. This was a big deal. My life is

0:41:33.950 --> 0:41:36.709
<v Speaker 1>still lacking since that moment. I like you real. Touched

0:41:36.750 --> 0:41:41.859
<v Speaker 1>by greatness at a young age. All right. Send us yours.

0:41:41.919 --> 0:41:45.200
<v Speaker 2>What did you win as a kid? 0-4-7-5-0-3-1-0-4-3.

0:41:47.239 --> 0:41:50.140
<v Speaker 1>And a side one. Has anyone ever won that sports

0:41:50.200 --> 0:41:51.500
<v Speaker 1>car at the airport?

0:41:52.160 --> 0:41:54.960
<v Speaker 3>The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

0:41:55.710 --> 0:41:56.129
<v Speaker 1>Right now.

0:41:57.450 --> 0:41:59.529
<v Speaker 2>We are loving all your stories, things you won as

0:42:00.190 --> 0:42:02.879
<v Speaker 2>a kid. I guess it's because it's going back to

0:42:02.899 --> 0:42:08.120
<v Speaker 2>a very different, innocent time where nowadays, you know, you've

0:42:08.140 --> 0:42:11.259
<v Speaker 2>got Mr Beast who's giving away like 10 million, and

0:42:11.299 --> 0:42:13.439
<v Speaker 2>we're losing it because you won an iPod Shuffle. I

0:42:15.089 --> 0:42:16.830
<v Speaker 2>think I prefer the old days, to be honest.

0:42:17.930 --> 0:42:22.150
<v Speaker 1>Like Suey. What do you want with a one-bar electric

0:42:22.190 --> 0:42:22.969
<v Speaker 1>heater as a kid?

0:42:24.129 --> 0:42:26.520
<v Speaker 2>Christian, I won a one bar electric heater on the

0:42:26.569 --> 0:42:29.680
<v Speaker 2>lucky wheel at the school fete. I can only assume

0:42:29.700 --> 0:42:32.079
<v Speaker 2>it had been donated. Do you remember when it was

0:42:32.140 --> 0:42:35.299
<v Speaker 2>the annual school fete and the fair? That was like

0:42:35.319 --> 0:42:36.639
<v Speaker 2>the highlight of your year.

0:42:36.779 --> 0:42:39.849
<v Speaker 1>Totally. And it was all basic things like, guess the

0:42:40.469 --> 0:42:42.749
<v Speaker 1>pennies in the jar or the marbles in the jar.

0:42:42.790 --> 0:42:43.290
<v Speaker 10>Jelly beans.

0:42:43.390 --> 0:42:45.850
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and it was the first time you ever, you

0:42:45.870 --> 0:42:47.650
<v Speaker 2>would just lose your mind because you saw your teachers

0:42:47.690 --> 0:42:48.430
<v Speaker 2>in denim jeans.

0:42:48.450 --> 0:42:48.810
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:42:49.489 --> 0:42:49.749
<v Speaker 3>Oh, Mr.

0:42:49.790 --> 0:42:50.930
<v Speaker 1>Tucker's wearing jeans!

0:42:51.270 --> 0:42:51.750
<v Speaker 5>Oh, God!

0:42:51.950 --> 0:42:53.630
<v Speaker 1>What the hell?

0:42:56.379 --> 0:42:59.600
<v Speaker 2>Christian, we won the Easter raffle with a massive Easter

0:42:59.680 --> 0:43:01.799
<v Speaker 2>egg and lots of chocolates around it. My mum gave

0:43:01.839 --> 0:43:03.810
<v Speaker 2>it to my nana. I got none of it.

0:43:04.640 --> 0:43:04.759
<v Speaker 11>Oh.

0:43:05.060 --> 0:43:07.860
<v Speaker 2>I hope that stays with you. I can feel, judging

0:43:07.879 --> 0:43:10.110
<v Speaker 2>from that emoji, there's real pain here, actually, right now.

0:43:10.399 --> 0:43:13.330
<v Speaker 2>Still Deborah Morse. Christian, when I was in primary school,

0:43:13.350 --> 0:43:15.489
<v Speaker 2>we did the annual teddy bear dress-up competition.

0:43:15.549 --> 0:43:16.249
<v Speaker 1>And I won.

0:43:16.770 --> 0:43:19.229
<v Speaker 2>The prize was that the Bears got to go on

0:43:19.270 --> 0:43:21.390
<v Speaker 2>a hot air balloon ride. But on that day, it

0:43:21.430 --> 0:43:23.809
<v Speaker 2>was too windy. So the principal just went and brought

0:43:23.830 --> 0:43:24.469
<v Speaker 2>McDonald's for.

0:43:24.390 --> 0:43:24.680
<v Speaker 1>All of us.

0:43:24.690 --> 0:43:25.749
<v Speaker 5>Still pretty good.

0:43:26.089 --> 0:43:28.689
<v Speaker 2>Still a good day. Christian, I was seven, went to

0:43:28.710 --> 0:43:30.880
<v Speaker 2>the filming of a local TV show. I was chosen

0:43:30.919 --> 0:43:33.819
<v Speaker 2>part of the donut eating competition. I won, and I

0:43:33.859 --> 0:43:37.700
<v Speaker 2>won a wacky racist board game. So Wendy, as a kid,

0:43:37.759 --> 0:43:39.719
<v Speaker 2>I won a private dance lesson at the end of

0:43:39.779 --> 0:43:43.190
<v Speaker 2>a raffle. I thought the private word sounded naughty, so

0:43:43.230 --> 0:43:44.910
<v Speaker 2>I said no when they announced me.

0:43:44.930 --> 0:43:45.349
<v Speaker 1>As a winner.

0:43:45.759 --> 0:43:49.620
<v Speaker 2>They gave me a pen instead. Christian, I won on

0:43:49.680 --> 0:43:51.779
<v Speaker 2>a kid's game show. Any of you remember Matchmates?

0:43:52.700 --> 0:43:52.899
<v Speaker 9>No.

0:43:53.000 --> 0:43:56.520
<v Speaker 1>It's on the 80s. I won two educational books.

0:43:57.069 --> 0:43:57.439
<v Speaker 10>Wow.

0:43:57.540 --> 0:43:58.910
<v Speaker 5>Bummer.

0:43:59.089 --> 0:44:00.570
<v Speaker 1>Young Rio would have loved that.

0:44:00.969 --> 0:44:01.810
<v Speaker 5>Encyclopedia.

0:44:02.009 --> 0:44:03.390
<v Speaker 1>Oh, my word. Britannica.

0:44:03.469 --> 0:44:04.890
<v Speaker 5>Britannica. Yeah, Encarno.

0:44:06.230 --> 0:44:10.370
<v Speaker 2>Christian, I wrote into Agro's Cartoon Connections.

0:44:10.390 --> 0:44:13.899
<v Speaker 1>Oh, yes. Sad news. Jamie Dunn passed away this year. Agro,

0:44:14.060 --> 0:44:15.339
<v Speaker 1>he was on the show a couple of years ago.

0:44:16.180 --> 0:44:19.020
<v Speaker 1>Doing Agro. It was brilliant. It was edgy.

0:44:19.540 --> 0:44:23.009
<v Speaker 2>He was so funny. Agro's Cartoon Connection. There's a blast

0:44:23.049 --> 0:44:27.009
<v Speaker 2>in the past. For the Rosebank Stack Hat competition. I

0:44:27.049 --> 0:44:29.729
<v Speaker 2>lived on a farm with gravel driveway. Stated it was

0:44:29.910 --> 0:44:31.230
<v Speaker 2>unsafe without a helmet.

0:44:31.629 --> 0:44:32.030
<v Speaker 1>I won.

0:44:32.069 --> 0:44:35.149
<v Speaker 2>It was a bright yellow helmet with a visor. Carla's

0:44:35.169 --> 0:44:36.750
<v Speaker 2>still got it. She sent me a photo of it.

0:44:36.810 --> 0:44:40.910
<v Speaker 1>It's incredible. Christian, when I was nine, I filled in

0:44:40.930 --> 0:44:42.729
<v Speaker 1>the details. This is what you had to do back

0:44:42.750 --> 0:44:44.319
<v Speaker 1>in the day. Fill in the details.

0:44:44.930 --> 0:44:46.629
<v Speaker 2>For a free raffle at our local hobby shop, I

0:44:46.629 --> 0:44:48.089
<v Speaker 2>got a phone call a month later that I'd won

0:44:48.129 --> 0:44:50.950
<v Speaker 2>a toy train set. Fully electric with all the carriages

0:44:50.989 --> 0:44:53.980
<v Speaker 2>and track options. It was worth about 300 bucks. Big,

0:44:54.060 --> 0:44:56.100
<v Speaker 2>big prize back in the day. As a kid, I

0:44:56.140 --> 0:44:59.420
<v Speaker 2>felt like I'd won the lottery. It meant endless hours

0:44:59.460 --> 0:45:01.480
<v Speaker 2>of father-son time over the next couple of years, building

0:45:01.520 --> 0:45:04.780
<v Speaker 2>and rebuilding it with my dad. Christian, back in primary school,

0:45:04.839 --> 0:45:07.620
<v Speaker 2>this would have been about 40 years ago. The school

0:45:07.660 --> 0:45:10.660
<v Speaker 2>was a cash-a-can collection point, and the money raised went

0:45:10.680 --> 0:45:12.019
<v Speaker 2>to the school. They had a competition of who could

0:45:12.040 --> 0:45:15.080
<v Speaker 2>bring in the most cans. My dad ran a rehearsal

0:45:15.100 --> 0:45:17.279
<v Speaker 2>studio for bands. Every day, I'd turn up with loads

0:45:17.339 --> 0:45:21.500
<v Speaker 2>of beer cans. I won by a clear, massive margin.

0:45:21.980 --> 0:45:25.969
<v Speaker 2>All I won was a dull Encyclopedia Britannica. Christian, I

0:45:25.989 --> 0:45:30.130
<v Speaker 2>won tickets in 1987 to go and see He-Man, the movie,

0:45:30.790 --> 0:45:33.249
<v Speaker 2>thanks to Agro's Cartoon Connection.

0:45:33.690 --> 0:45:35.689
<v Speaker 1>After sending in my drawing of characters.

0:45:36.109 --> 0:45:37.890
<v Speaker 2>I didn't see it on TV when it went out,

0:45:38.410 --> 0:45:40.499
<v Speaker 2>but when I got to school, I was greeted with

0:45:40.560 --> 0:45:42.180
<v Speaker 2>congratulations from my classmates.

0:45:42.500 --> 0:45:43.100
<v Speaker 1>They all saw it.

0:45:43.440 --> 0:45:48.320
<v Speaker 2>Christian, I felt like a celebrity for a few fleeting moments. Christian,

0:45:48.339 --> 0:45:50.700
<v Speaker 2>I won a colouring competition on a local paper, received

0:45:50.739 --> 0:45:52.519
<v Speaker 2>a kitchen sink full of ice cream.

0:45:52.560 --> 0:45:54.879
<v Speaker 1>That was the prize. They worded it like that.

0:45:54.980 --> 0:45:55.940
<v Speaker 5>That is great.

0:45:55.960 --> 0:46:01.519
<v Speaker 2>Win a kitchen sink full of ice cream. Forget about

0:46:01.540 --> 0:46:04.979
<v Speaker 2>being stranded in Bali with Barnsey. Win your sink full

0:46:05.020 --> 0:46:10.040
<v Speaker 2>of ice cream. The code word today, gluttonous. Christian, I

0:46:10.060 --> 0:46:12.939
<v Speaker 2>want iPod. Shuffle from a Pepsi Max bottle. My brother

0:46:12.960 --> 0:46:15.839
<v Speaker 2>and I got caffeine on the drink label. You had

0:46:15.859 --> 0:46:18.790
<v Speaker 2>to message through with the code. We're still doing codes.

0:46:19.469 --> 0:46:21.950
<v Speaker 2>The system works. My bottle wasn't a winner, but I

0:46:21.989 --> 0:46:24.850
<v Speaker 2>asked if I could enter my brother's. He said yes,

0:46:25.270 --> 0:46:28.230
<v Speaker 2>and it won. I never told him it was his.

0:46:29.629 --> 0:46:34.650
<v Speaker 1>Oh, my word. Wowee. That is you, Scanlon and the family.

0:46:35.489 --> 0:46:37.210
<v Speaker 1>Let's go to Bernie now. Morning, Bernie.

0:46:38.049 --> 0:46:39.390
<v Speaker 12>Good morning, guys. How are we?

0:46:39.690 --> 0:46:41.709
<v Speaker 1>I'm good, Bernie. Welcome to the show. Thanks for calling.

0:46:41.730 --> 0:46:43.090
<v Speaker 1>What did you win as a kid, Bernie?

0:46:43.509 --> 0:46:46.900
<v Speaker 12>Well, my daughter, my 13-year-old daughter, you were just talking

0:46:46.919 --> 0:46:49.940
<v Speaker 12>recently about the paddle pop sticks. Well, she collected all those,

0:46:50.020 --> 0:46:52.180
<v Speaker 12>and one day she got the paddle pop and licked

0:46:52.200 --> 0:46:54.859
<v Speaker 12>the stick, and guess what? she won a stand-up paddle board.

0:46:54.879 --> 0:46:58.580
<v Speaker 1>Oh, wow. From paddle pop to paddle board. That's the

0:46:58.600 --> 0:46:59.729
<v Speaker 1>local newspaper headline.

0:47:00.419 --> 0:47:07.770
<v Speaker 12>We probably bought about 5,000 paddle pop times. And we actually,

0:47:07.870 --> 0:47:09.870
<v Speaker 12>when it got delivered, we actually put it in the

0:47:09.890 --> 0:47:11.689
<v Speaker 12>pool and they tried to stand on it and they

0:47:11.710 --> 0:47:12.229
<v Speaker 12>couldn't do it.

0:47:13.950 --> 0:47:17.729
<v Speaker 2>Now, Bernie, you have an amazing voice and accent. You

0:47:17.770 --> 0:47:20.189
<v Speaker 2>sound like someone who would have run a school. Were

0:47:20.210 --> 0:47:21.009
<v Speaker 2>you a headteacher?

0:47:21.919 --> 0:47:25.160
<v Speaker 12>No, no, no. I've just been a full-time nan and

0:47:25.399 --> 0:47:28.099
<v Speaker 12>a babysitter and helping out at schools all my life.

0:47:28.719 --> 0:47:30.600
<v Speaker 12>Right now, I'm looking after five grandchildren.

0:47:30.719 --> 0:47:33.839
<v Speaker 1>Right now and calling us? Yes, yes.

0:47:33.879 --> 0:47:35.640
<v Speaker 12>I've got three that live with me and two that

0:47:35.660 --> 0:47:37.140
<v Speaker 12>I pick up and take to school every morning. I've

0:47:37.160 --> 0:47:39.180
<v Speaker 12>just done a three-school drop-off.

0:47:39.399 --> 0:47:40.039
<v Speaker 5>It's like Mrs.

0:47:40.100 --> 0:47:43.519
<v Speaker 1>Doubtfire's on the line. I'm not saying you're a man

0:47:43.540 --> 0:47:45.180
<v Speaker 1>dressed up as a woman, by the way. I didn't

0:47:45.200 --> 0:47:46.559
<v Speaker 1>mean that. I should have said name at feet.

0:47:46.719 --> 0:47:48.920
<v Speaker 2>You know, why didn't you go with Mary Poppins?

0:47:49.080 --> 0:47:51.469
<v Speaker 1>Why go with a man pretending to be a woman?

0:47:51.910 --> 0:47:53.230
<v Speaker 1>Bad reference, Christian.

0:47:54.009 --> 0:47:56.769
<v Speaker 12>You guys are so funny. My grandchildren listen to you

0:47:56.810 --> 0:47:58.340
<v Speaker 12>on the way to school, and they just crack up.

0:47:58.350 --> 0:48:02.319
<v Speaker 1>Brilliant. That's our target audience. Thank you so much. Thank you, Bernie.

0:48:02.359 --> 0:48:05.940
<v Speaker 1>Thank you very much. Not Mrs. Doubtfire. An actual lady.

0:48:06.419 --> 0:48:09.239
<v Speaker 3>The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

0:48:09.399 --> 0:48:11.040
<v Speaker 2>What did you win as a kid is turning out

0:48:11.080 --> 0:48:13.660
<v Speaker 2>to be one of my favorites of the year. So

0:48:13.700 --> 0:48:17.580
<v Speaker 2>many of you won stuff on Agro's Cartoon Connection. Christian,

0:48:18.140 --> 0:48:21.619
<v Speaker 2>this sounds like another young Rio mate of yours. Grade

<v Speaker 2>Uh christian i want to buy because a 10 year

0:48:38.750 --> 0:48:40.989
<v Speaker 2>old from the local bottle shop only to find out

0:48:41.049 --> 0:48:42.930
<v Speaker 2>months later i didn't win it i was gifted it

0:48:43.350 --> 0:48:45.870
<v Speaker 2>because my dad spent so much time in the shop.

0:48:48.109 --> 0:48:50.930
<v Speaker 1>Wow wow that's some story john um.

0:48:53.080 --> 0:48:56.539
<v Speaker 2>Captain No Underpants? Oh, that's for the time wastes. Sorry,

0:48:56.580 --> 0:48:59.200
<v Speaker 2>I thought someone won a competition called Captain No Underpants.

0:48:59.940 --> 0:49:01.660
<v Speaker 2>It was a different time, you know?

0:49:02.120 --> 0:49:03.099
<v Speaker 1>Probably on the footy show.

0:49:04.580 --> 0:49:07.149
<v Speaker 2>Christian, when I was in grade two, Dad took us

0:49:07.210 --> 0:49:09.890
<v Speaker 2>up to Queensland in his old Ford Falcon with a

0:49:09.910 --> 0:49:13.629
<v Speaker 2>brilliant time. He made me enter competition playing a remote-controlled

0:49:13.669 --> 0:49:16.870
<v Speaker 2>car game. I won the race. It was a huge

0:49:16.910 --> 0:49:19.730
<v Speaker 2>hamper of patties, pies, and sausage rolls.

0:49:20.169 --> 0:49:20.770
<v Speaker 1>A feast!

0:49:21.279 --> 0:49:23.649
<v Speaker 2>That's from Vanessa Christian. When I was young at a

0:49:23.750 --> 0:49:25.910
<v Speaker 2>Greek New Year's Eve party, I won.

0:49:25.750 --> 0:49:26.669
<v Speaker 1>A red wheelbarrow.

0:49:26.690 --> 0:49:27.170
<v Speaker 3>Nice.

0:49:27.190 --> 0:49:30.299
<v Speaker 2>What every young man wants. And for some reason, they said, oh,

0:49:30.319 --> 0:49:31.979
<v Speaker 2>we've made a mistake. We're going to give it to

0:49:32.040 --> 0:49:34.500
<v Speaker 2>someone else. My dad and uncle made a huge fuss,

0:49:35.180 --> 0:49:38.000
<v Speaker 2>and I ended up getting the red wheelbarrow. I still

0:49:38.040 --> 0:49:40.900
<v Speaker 2>have it to this day. Maybe tomorrow there's a topic

0:49:40.940 --> 0:49:44.539
<v Speaker 2>in making a fuss. And I wondered where the Humphrey B.

0:49:44.580 --> 0:49:48.149
<v Speaker 2>Bear competition winners were. They're just coming in now. In

0:49:48.330 --> 0:49:51.319
<v Speaker 2>grade one, I won a second prize in a Humphrey

0:49:51.379 --> 0:49:55.600
<v Speaker 2>Bieber coloring competition. Years later, my big brother helped me

0:49:55.640 --> 0:49:58.219
<v Speaker 2>write my first resume, and I didn't check. He sneakily

0:49:58.259 --> 0:50:00.739
<v Speaker 2>put it in that I came second in Humphrey Bieber.

0:50:01.040 --> 0:50:04.560
<v Speaker 2>I'd hire someone that had that kind of pedigree.

0:50:04.620 --> 0:50:05.359
<v Speaker 1>Christian, get this.

0:50:05.859 --> 0:50:09.279
<v Speaker 2>I hit the lotto on my ninth birthday in 1981,

0:50:09.259 --> 0:50:11.140
<v Speaker 2>winning $ 500. Now, with inflation $ 500 in 1981 and year nine,

0:50:17.819 --> 0:50:21.180
<v Speaker 2>is a huge amount of money. In 1981, nine-year-olds could

0:50:21.219 --> 0:50:23.359
<v Speaker 2>buy a lotto ticket. Christian, I just missed out on

0:50:23.379 --> 0:50:27.120
<v Speaker 2>the $ 1 million jackpot. This is from Jamelia because my

0:50:27.180 --> 0:50:29.759
<v Speaker 2>last number was three instead of 23.

0:50:29.759 --> 0:50:31.039
<v Speaker 1>Out of all that cash, all.

0:50:30.960 --> 0:50:33.879
<v Speaker 2>I got was a lousy yellow tracksuit, which they made

0:50:33.919 --> 0:50:39.140
<v Speaker 2>me wear to Featherdale Wildlife Park at Doomside. Christian, my

0:50:39.160 --> 0:50:42.549
<v Speaker 2>daughter won an Italian Day costume competition. I cannot remember

0:50:42.589 --> 0:50:44.430
<v Speaker 2>what the prize was, but she still reminds me today

0:50:44.469 --> 0:50:46.509
<v Speaker 2>how I made her go to school dressed up as

0:50:46.549 --> 0:50:47.509
<v Speaker 2>a table.

0:50:47.410 --> 0:50:58.980
<v Speaker 7>In an Italian restaurant.

0:50:59.020 --> 0:51:01.680
<v Speaker 1>A kid winning $ 500 on the scratchies.

0:51:02.259 --> 0:51:05.959
<v Speaker 2>Oh, I think this close to getting a million. Happy ninth, son.

0:51:07.419 --> 0:51:09.440
<v Speaker 2>We'll have all that money and you get a crappy

0:51:09.480 --> 0:51:15.810
<v Speaker 2>yellow tracksuit. All right, time waste today, scary movies. For

0:51:15.830 --> 0:51:17.890
<v Speaker 2>the best in show, pair of glasses, brand new glasses on,

0:51:17.950 --> 0:51:20.669
<v Speaker 2>spec savers. Head to your local spec savers today, or

0:51:21.149 --> 0:51:23.290
<v Speaker 2>you can book your eye test online. We're looking for

0:51:23.319 --> 0:51:27.100
<v Speaker 2>your scary movies today. What about old scary poppins?

0:51:27.500 --> 0:51:28.820
<v Speaker 5>Oh, yeah, silver plus.

0:51:30.140 --> 0:51:31.299
<v Speaker 1>Zombie movie.

0:51:32.020 --> 0:51:33.700
<v Speaker 5>Oh, scary Jerry.

0:51:33.779 --> 0:51:36.879
<v Speaker 1>Very scary Jerry. Black Hawk Clown.

0:51:38.520 --> 0:51:39.430
<v Speaker 5>That's scarier than a war?

0:51:39.440 --> 0:51:39.900
<v Speaker 1>Terrifying.

0:51:41.680 --> 0:51:46.900
<v Speaker 2>Yes, clowns at war. And when Harry ate Sally.

0:51:47.379 --> 0:51:49.680
<v Speaker 5>Oh, okay, like a zombie situation.

0:51:49.700 --> 0:51:51.560
<v Speaker 1>That's the only way to read that. I want to

0:51:51.580 --> 0:51:52.459
<v Speaker 1>make crystals there.

0:51:52.739 --> 0:51:53.480
<v Speaker 5>It's gold.

0:51:54.419 --> 0:51:56.919
<v Speaker 1>By the way, I'm thinking of doing a drawing competition

0:51:57.020 --> 0:51:59.140
<v Speaker 1>for listeners. Love it. When was the last time as

0:51:59.180 --> 0:52:00.360
<v Speaker 1>a grown-up you drew anything?

0:52:00.819 --> 0:52:00.979
<v Speaker 8>No.

0:52:01.020 --> 0:52:03.729
<v Speaker 1>It's terrible, isn't it? I don't know what skills we

0:52:03.750 --> 0:52:06.969
<v Speaker 1>had as a kid. It goes. It goes. We put

0:52:06.989 --> 0:52:07.989
<v Speaker 1>it up on our socials.

0:52:08.450 --> 0:52:09.969
<v Speaker 5>So they draw, what do they draw?

0:52:10.009 --> 0:52:11.669
<v Speaker 1>Whatever they want. Whatever you want. It might be a

0:52:11.669 --> 0:52:15.359
<v Speaker 1>bird in the garden. It might be a nice tree. Pokemon.

0:52:15.419 --> 0:52:16.140
<v Speaker 1>Don't get Pokemon.

0:52:16.160 --> 0:52:18.999
<v Speaker 2>Oh, Caitlin's getting into Pokemon. That Donald Jack yesterday at dinner.

0:52:19.919 --> 0:52:21.840
<v Speaker 2>No one actually knew how to react about some cards

0:52:21.859 --> 0:52:22.140
<v Speaker 2>she got.

0:52:22.180 --> 0:52:23.960
<v Speaker 5>Oh, I got this. Oh, I got this Pokemon card.

0:52:23.980 --> 0:52:28.399
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, if you're 10, I'll say something. Rio, what are

0:52:28.419 --> 0:52:33.249
<v Speaker 1>your scary movies? Oh, my God.

0:52:35.029 --> 0:52:35.309
<v Speaker 3>Oh, no.

0:52:35.350 --> 0:52:38.900
<v Speaker 5>Someone spooked this little tap dancer. He's Billy Elliot.

0:52:39.080 --> 0:52:41.739
<v Speaker 1>Oh, no, that's very good. It's gold.

0:52:42.200 --> 0:52:45.339
<v Speaker 9>And oh, no, the Jamaican bobsled team died, but they've

0:52:45.379 --> 0:52:46.620
<v Speaker 9>come back as ghosts.

0:52:47.120 --> 0:52:48.300
<v Speaker 5>It's ghoul running.

0:52:48.339 --> 0:52:49.680
<v Speaker 1>That's very good. Gold plus.

<v Speaker 3>The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

0:52:52.980 --> 0:52:55.120
<v Speaker 1>Today's time waster. We're looking for your scary movies.

0:52:55.680 --> 0:52:57.459
<v Speaker 2>Christian is a 10-year-old. I want two tickets to the

0:52:57.569 --> 0:53:01.489
<v Speaker 2>cricket on 2WS. It was huge just to get through.

0:53:02.680 --> 0:53:05.380
<v Speaker 2>My dad was so excited. It was against the mighty

0:53:05.440 --> 0:53:07.580
<v Speaker 2>West Indies at the time as well. And they were

0:53:07.660 --> 0:53:10.400
<v Speaker 2>great seats. We're definitely going to come back to this tomorrow.

0:53:10.419 --> 0:53:13.169
<v Speaker 2>There's so many messages coming in. And we're just going

0:53:13.190 --> 0:53:14.709
<v Speaker 2>to do time wasting and head out for the day.

0:53:14.810 --> 0:53:17.349
<v Speaker 2>But tomorrow, we're definitely going to do part two, things

<v Speaker 1>Any whoosie.

0:53:27.100 --> 0:53:27.919
<v Speaker 5>Any whoosie indeed.

0:53:27.940 --> 0:53:29.979
<v Speaker 1>Like I said, we're not reading that one out, you know?

0:53:30.839 --> 0:53:31.820
<v Speaker 1>Horton hears a boo.

0:53:31.839 --> 0:53:35.200
<v Speaker 5>Sorry, I was distracted by the roar.

0:53:35.299 --> 0:53:42.649
<v Speaker 1>Cold. Naughty. You, me, and zombie. Silver plus. Night at

0:53:42.690 --> 0:53:44.789
<v Speaker 1>the boozeum.

<v Speaker 5>Bronze, obviously.

0:53:47.109 --> 0:53:50.930
<v Speaker 1>Not public enemies, public speaking enemies. Oh, scary for people.

0:53:51.009 --> 0:53:53.810
<v Speaker 1>It is, it is. Silver. Fright club.

0:53:54.870 --> 0:53:55.650
<v Speaker 5>That's gold.

0:53:55.669 --> 0:53:59.379
<v Speaker 1>Michelle, very good. Fright club's great. Romeo and Juliet.

0:53:59.399 --> 0:53:59.839
<v Speaker 9>Silver.

<v Speaker 1>Silver. Merry coffins.

0:54:02.089 --> 0:54:02.529
<v Speaker 5>Cold.

0:54:02.969 --> 0:54:07.580
<v Speaker 1>Very good, Richard. Ten things I hate about boo. Silver.

0:54:07.980 --> 0:54:08.839
<v Speaker 1>Goodwill haunting.

0:54:09.399 --> 0:54:10.020
<v Speaker 5>Oh, clever.

0:54:10.100 --> 0:54:16.439
<v Speaker 1>Gold. Well done, Frankie. The sound of mutants. Gold. Dude,

0:54:16.460 --> 0:54:17.399
<v Speaker 1>where's my carcass?

0:54:18.089 --> 0:54:18.439
<v Speaker 5>Silver.

0:54:18.930 --> 0:54:23.930
<v Speaker 1>That's from Erin. Loose dressing gowns for old men. Oh, dear.

0:54:24.589 --> 0:54:28.040
<v Speaker 1>And they start to descend at that age. They're on

0:54:28.060 --> 0:54:31.499
<v Speaker 1>the ground. Have you done Trip Over? We get it.

0:54:31.540 --> 0:54:35.200
<v Speaker 1>We get it. Radio is the edge of the mind.

0:54:36.359 --> 0:54:37.680
<v Speaker 5>Sometimes the theatre's too vivid.

0:54:37.719 --> 0:54:40.440
<v Speaker 1>Too vivid. Too vivid. Toy Gory.

0:54:41.100 --> 0:54:41.719
<v Speaker 5>Silver Plus.

0:54:41.859 --> 0:54:43.779
<v Speaker 1>And Throw Mama from the Ghost Train.

0:54:43.799 --> 0:54:46.130
<v Speaker 5>Ooh, silver.

0:54:47.509 --> 0:54:49.999
<v Speaker 1>What are the odds? That just came from Lisa Casper.

0:54:50.319 --> 0:54:51.840
<v Speaker 1>Casper is the name of a ghost.

0:54:51.940 --> 0:54:52.739
<v Speaker 5>A friendly ghost.

0:54:52.759 --> 0:54:55.160
<v Speaker 1>What are the odds?

0:54:55.560 --> 0:54:57.860
<v Speaker 2>Rio, who is the winner? Who's getting a free pair

0:54:57.919 --> 0:54:59.279
<v Speaker 2>of specs on Specsavers?

0:54:59.560 --> 0:55:01.059
<v Speaker 5>Loose dressing gowns for old men.

0:55:01.080 --> 0:55:02.960
<v Speaker 1>I thought the image was too vivid.

0:55:03.000 --> 0:55:04.239
<v Speaker 5>It is, but it's powerful.

0:55:04.399 --> 0:55:05.170
<v Speaker 1>It's powerful.

0:55:05.250 --> 0:55:07.549
<v Speaker 2>What a great image to leave in our listeners' minds.

0:55:08.390 --> 0:55:10.309
<v Speaker 2>When you think of the show today, think of old

0:55:10.350 --> 0:55:11.550
<v Speaker 2>men with loose dressing gowns.

0:55:11.910 --> 0:55:12.589
<v Speaker 1>And think of us.

0:55:13.520 --> 0:55:14.039
<v Speaker 5>All right, then.

0:55:14.640 --> 0:55:15.500
<v Speaker 1>We're back tomorrow.

0:55:15.560 --> 0:55:17.600
<v Speaker 2>We're definitely going to be doing your stories of what

0:55:17.640 --> 0:55:19.519
<v Speaker 2>did you win as a kid. And, of course, what

0:55:19.540 --> 0:55:21.620
<v Speaker 2>are the odds of being here, your stories of coincidence

0:55:21.640 --> 0:55:25.330
<v Speaker 2>and chance. If you've got one, email me, christian at christianoconnell.com.au.
