7
00:00:27,165 --> 00:00:31,605
Speaker 1: The show began seven years ago twenty eighteen. Only pats

8
00:00:31,645 --> 00:00:37,725
Speaker 1: and I remain Wow, the founding father and mother. So

9
00:00:37,965 --> 00:00:40,485
Speaker 1: much has changed as I look around survey the kingdom

10
00:00:40,525 --> 00:00:43,604
Speaker 1: around us now, Patsy, so many corpses and you have

11
00:00:43,805 --> 00:00:47,845
Speaker 1: killed all of them, are buried in the reign of terror.

12
00:00:47,925 --> 00:00:52,324
Speaker 5: Musto, You're the hardest one to kill off found So

13
00:00:52,405 --> 00:00:52,964
Speaker 5: you'll come.

14
00:00:52,805 --> 00:00:55,485
Speaker 1: For me one day never and it will be my destiny.

15
00:00:55,525 --> 00:00:57,885
Speaker 1: I will bound down and say, finally, it will be

16
00:00:57,925 --> 00:01:00,285
Speaker 1: a pleasure to be destroyed by the one and only

17
00:01:00,605 --> 00:01:04,205
Speaker 1: radio killer, NonStop thriller betweena giants. Do you know actually

18
00:01:04,205 --> 00:01:06,285
Speaker 1: there are I'm in a studio right now that is

19
00:01:06,325 --> 00:01:09,485
Speaker 1: this full of joy. It's like a Santa's grotto in here,

20
00:01:10,005 --> 00:01:13,125
Speaker 1: and it's full of these beautiful cards that so many

21
00:01:13,125 --> 00:01:15,365
Speaker 1: of our gorgeous listeners have taken the time to go in,

22
00:01:16,085 --> 00:01:19,605
Speaker 1: right out and send. And what's magical is I'm reading

23
00:01:19,645 --> 00:01:23,445
Speaker 1: all the messages and there's something really moving about handwriting

24
00:01:23,885 --> 00:01:27,245
Speaker 1: because you don't see it these days. It's Texas emojisus easier,

25
00:01:27,525 --> 00:01:29,845
Speaker 1: but it's also quite transactional. And actually, when you see

26
00:01:29,845 --> 00:01:33,645
Speaker 1: someone's handwriting, it's like their voice. It's so unique to them.

27
00:01:33,925 --> 00:01:36,525
Speaker 1: How they even spell my name or how they do

28
00:01:36,605 --> 00:01:39,205
Speaker 1: their teas. It's different for all of us. And so

29
00:01:39,245 --> 00:01:41,125
Speaker 1: there are so many beautiful cars we've got up around

30
00:01:41,125 --> 00:01:43,325
Speaker 1: the studio today. Some of the people that have actually

31
00:01:43,365 --> 00:01:45,245
Speaker 1: gone to the effort of sending these cars with these

32
00:01:45,245 --> 00:01:48,045
Speaker 1: some beautiful messages and sharing in that are going to

33
00:01:48,045 --> 00:01:51,165
Speaker 1: be called and receiving one of seven really big prizes.

34
00:01:51,205 --> 00:01:54,285
Speaker 1: We have over twelve thousand dollars worth of prizes thanks

35
00:01:54,285 --> 00:01:57,165
Speaker 1: to Ians to give away today on our seventh birthday.

36
00:01:57,525 --> 00:02:00,925
Speaker 1: Ian S were one of the first sponsors to actually

37
00:02:01,525 --> 00:02:03,645
Speaker 1: believe that I would still be here more than a year.

38
00:02:04,725 --> 00:02:06,525
Speaker 1: A Rob from that was the first person I met

39
00:02:06,565 --> 00:02:09,204
Speaker 1: about five weeks into the show, took me out for

40
00:02:09,285 --> 00:02:12,405
Speaker 1: lunch and he's become a great friend and support of

41
00:02:12,445 --> 00:02:15,484
Speaker 1: the show ever since then. So it was really great

42
00:02:15,565 --> 00:02:17,845
Speaker 1: on seven years to actually be doing something Robin's team

43
00:02:17,885 --> 00:02:20,644
Speaker 1: at ian S. Some of these I must have said

44
00:02:20,645 --> 00:02:22,565
Speaker 1: good morning to Pam, She's just messaged me, and I'm

45
00:02:22,565 --> 00:02:26,005
Speaker 1: glad she's clarified something. Christian, have a happy seventh birthday.

46
00:02:26,045 --> 00:02:29,645
Speaker 1: Congratulations on creating an enjoyable show to listen to. I

47
00:02:29,645 --> 00:02:31,645
Speaker 1: sent you the card, but I thought was a young

48
00:02:31,725 --> 00:02:34,685
Speaker 1: Christian dreaming of being on the radio. Now, Pam, I

49
00:02:34,685 --> 00:02:36,805
Speaker 1: did see that yesterday and he got to be honest,

50
00:02:36,805 --> 00:02:40,285
Speaker 1: it's startled me. It looked like Christian who's had a

51
00:02:40,325 --> 00:02:44,845
Speaker 1: serious car accident. So now I didn't save last night

52
00:02:45,525 --> 00:02:46,885
Speaker 1: because I was worried that there was going to bomb

53
00:02:46,925 --> 00:02:49,245
Speaker 1: under the car or something very From Pam. It was

54
00:02:49,285 --> 00:02:52,525
Speaker 1: a threat like stop radio or this will happen. So

55
00:02:52,685 --> 00:02:55,525
Speaker 1: you have a choice, Zippy. You've had almost seven good years.

56
00:02:55,565 --> 00:02:57,845
Speaker 1: That's enough now. But Pam, I didn't realize that was

57
00:02:57,925 --> 00:03:01,205
Speaker 1: young Christian. I'm dreaming of being on the radio. Look

58
00:03:01,205 --> 00:03:03,565
Speaker 1: at him now, Yes, thank you very much. And I've

59
00:03:03,565 --> 00:03:10,605
Speaker 1: got one here from Emily Hughes. This beautiful. Yeah, it's

60
00:03:10,605 --> 00:03:13,765
Speaker 1: like a well, it's a three dimensional card. She's she's

61
00:03:13,765 --> 00:03:16,285
Speaker 1: colored in and drawn the flag of Great Britain and

62
00:03:16,325 --> 00:03:19,484
Speaker 1: the flag of Australia and she's created a podium with

63
00:03:19,645 --> 00:03:22,445
Speaker 1: seven on it. Did Christian a team? Happy seventh birthday.

64
00:03:22,485 --> 00:03:24,645
Speaker 1: My name is Emily Hughes. Do you remember in cars

65
00:03:24,645 --> 00:03:25,965
Speaker 1: and that when you write to people you put your

66
00:03:26,045 --> 00:03:28,685
Speaker 1: name in up from full name. Yeah, like a young rapper.

67
00:03:29,325 --> 00:03:34,405
Speaker 1: My name is Emie Hughes. Don't you forget it? And

68
00:03:34,445 --> 00:03:36,405
Speaker 1: then in a different ink, you know where they've looked

69
00:03:36,405 --> 00:03:38,165
Speaker 1: back at the work she's putting in a different inkit

70
00:03:38,445 --> 00:03:39,805
Speaker 1: eleven years old.

71
00:03:39,805 --> 00:03:40,325
Speaker 2: Bless.

72
00:03:40,405 --> 00:03:42,845
Speaker 1: There's two times. There's two stages of life where you

73
00:03:42,925 --> 00:03:46,285
Speaker 1: mention your age and Emily's aging. Then very old people

74
00:03:46,685 --> 00:03:51,405
Speaker 1: when I'm seventy ninety, I'm seventy nine. Old age mentioners.

75
00:03:51,405 --> 00:03:53,725
Speaker 1: I used to call them, I'm seventy nine, you know,

76
00:03:54,125 --> 00:03:58,205
Speaker 1: Emily Hughes eleven. Don't you forget about it? DJ coming

00:04:07,605 --> 00:04:10,005
Speaker 1: seven years. At the end of the year, you guys

81
00:04:12,205 --> 00:04:16,284
Speaker 1: jokes in the world from Emily Hughes. Emily Hughes, that

82
00:04:16,404 --> 00:04:18,724
Speaker 1: is a beautiful thing you've made there as well. And

83
00:04:18,765 --> 00:04:21,724
Speaker 1: then one of the ones I've got so many questions about.

84
00:04:22,045 --> 00:04:25,525
Speaker 1: Someone has sent a carden but they've put your face

85
00:04:25,565 --> 00:04:30,645
Speaker 1: Patsy on a stamp. Oh like the Queen. Well, it

86
00:04:30,765 --> 00:04:34,005
Speaker 1: actually looked like a dictator slash tyrant. To me, I

87
00:04:34,044 --> 00:04:37,724
Speaker 1: have a small, aggressive country that's becoming the next Russier

88
00:04:38,164 --> 00:04:40,765
Speaker 1: of like a mad tyrant who's threatening the world with

89
00:04:40,844 --> 00:04:43,044
Speaker 1: a big laser. They are going to point at the

90
00:04:43,085 --> 00:04:45,724
Speaker 1: moon and destroy all of Ustoria.

91
00:04:45,924 --> 00:04:46,605
Speaker 4: We'll call it.

92
00:04:47,005 --> 00:04:50,365
Speaker 1: I don't know where you get that's not legal though,

93
00:04:50,404 --> 00:04:52,044
Speaker 1: is it. You can't just put your own photo on

94
00:04:52,085 --> 00:04:52,525
Speaker 1: a stamp.

95
00:04:52,565 --> 00:04:55,044
Speaker 5: You know you can go to oz post and get

96
00:04:55,125 --> 00:04:59,085
Speaker 5: I think you can. I think they read a great idea.

97
00:04:58,445 --> 00:05:03,724
Speaker 6: For Australian icons, you know, cav Freeman, Dawn Drones.

98
00:05:06,484 --> 00:05:07,924
Speaker 1: I would have to bring you in this stamp. But

00:05:07,924 --> 00:05:09,525
Speaker 1: thank you very much. I show them who sent them in.

100
00:05:10,205 --> 00:05:13,365
Speaker 4: Christian O'Connell show, go On podcast.

101
00:05:13,685 --> 00:05:16,525
Speaker 1: Good morning to Shane in Sydney. Thank you very much

102
00:05:16,565 --> 00:05:18,765
Speaker 1: for joining the show. In the last six months. In

103
00:05:18,804 --> 00:05:21,525
Speaker 1: the days leading up to beginning my first radio show

104
00:05:21,565 --> 00:05:23,724
Speaker 1: here in Australia, and you have to bear in mind

105
00:05:23,765 --> 00:05:28,444
Speaker 1: I'd had the craziest two weeks. I literally eleven days

106
00:05:28,445 --> 00:05:32,484
Speaker 1: before I started my radio career here in Australia, I'd

107
00:05:32,525 --> 00:05:35,005
Speaker 1: finished a radio show that i'd done an absolutely love

108
00:05:35,085 --> 00:05:38,044
Speaker 1: for twelve years in London, a radio show we had

109
00:05:38,085 --> 00:05:40,284
Speaker 1: two and a half million listeners, and a lot of

110
00:05:40,284 --> 00:05:42,844
Speaker 1: those listeners had come with me from my previous breakfast

111
00:05:42,844 --> 00:05:45,404
Speaker 1: show that I'd done for five years. So for seventeen

112
00:05:45,565 --> 00:05:49,844
Speaker 1: years I'd been someone's constant, and some of those listeners

113
00:05:49,885 --> 00:05:52,085
Speaker 1: had gone from being forced to listen to me during

114
00:05:52,125 --> 00:05:55,324
Speaker 1: the school run, to go into university, to meeting partners,

115
00:05:55,364 --> 00:05:58,724
Speaker 1: getting married and now forcing their kids. So I've been

116
00:05:58,765 --> 00:06:00,724
Speaker 1: through all these transitions in the life. So what it

117
00:06:00,765 --> 00:06:03,324
Speaker 1: meant was, in the last couple of weeks of my show,

118
00:06:04,245 --> 00:06:07,845
Speaker 1: I was getting this mass, mass, outpouring of love from

119
00:06:07,844 --> 00:06:10,164
Speaker 1: people that I've met before, but you have met in

120
00:06:10,164 --> 00:06:13,044
Speaker 1: a way, And so I went from that to the

121
00:06:13,125 --> 00:06:15,925
Speaker 1: biggest pandulum swing you can ever have a knife to

122
00:06:16,085 --> 00:06:20,404
Speaker 1: actually been hated within two weeks. I went from hero

123
00:06:20,525 --> 00:06:23,404
Speaker 1: to zero within two chilling weeks. The other side of

124
00:06:23,404 --> 00:06:25,564
Speaker 1: the world where people literally had this feeling of like

125
00:06:25,685 --> 00:06:31,765
Speaker 1: arms followed going no, no, now, God, he's English as well,

126
00:06:32,044 --> 00:06:34,085
Speaker 1: I don't know you, and what I do know about if.

127
00:06:33,964 --> 00:06:36,085
Speaker 2: He's really English nine in.

128
00:06:36,044 --> 00:06:39,645
Speaker 1: The morning, not in the morning, maybe the afternoon maybe

129
00:06:39,765 --> 00:06:41,925
Speaker 1: or real late at night when I'm half asleep and

130
00:06:41,924 --> 00:06:44,205
Speaker 1: I can't even work out Godey's English, it's going back

131
00:06:44,245 --> 00:06:47,284
Speaker 1: to me. It was a really violent swing and a

132
00:06:47,364 --> 00:06:49,525
Speaker 1: remain not that for an awful long time. But one

133
00:06:49,565 --> 00:06:52,564
Speaker 1: by one people were so kind. They unfolded arms and

134
00:06:52,565 --> 00:06:54,605
Speaker 1: they start to give the show a go, and you

135
00:06:54,685 --> 00:06:56,885
Speaker 1: welcome me into your life. And so without that, over

136
00:06:56,885 --> 00:06:59,525
Speaker 1: the last seven years and increasingly the last couple of weeks,

137
00:06:59,565 --> 00:07:01,484
Speaker 1: people still coming to the show, and that thank you

138
00:07:01,525 --> 00:07:04,165
Speaker 1: so much. We don't get to have this magical kind

139
00:07:04,164 --> 00:07:05,924
Speaker 1: of from my wife and I now in our fifties.

140
00:07:06,205 --> 00:07:09,044
Speaker 1: This is an amazing A second, I like to tell

141
00:07:09,044 --> 00:07:12,004
Speaker 1: myself it's a second act or is it second? Let's

142
00:07:12,005 --> 00:07:17,525
Speaker 1: say a second the corner. It's funny how when I

143
00:07:17,525 --> 00:07:20,325
Speaker 1: said the final acts, I looked at Pats stop it

144
00:07:20,525 --> 00:07:23,165
Speaker 1: that tyrant's face and a stamp is all I see

145
00:07:23,245 --> 00:07:25,364
Speaker 1: as she stamps me. You know, like at the end

146
00:07:25,405 --> 00:07:29,325
Speaker 1: of Inglorious gust Face Carver, you know who the carve

147
00:07:29,364 --> 00:07:31,165
Speaker 1: will be, Betrina Jones.

148
00:07:31,364 --> 00:07:33,205
Speaker 5: It's amazing, though, what you've done, Christian.

149
00:07:33,405 --> 00:07:36,165
Speaker 1: And also I have to just say, right, it's amazing

150
00:07:36,245 --> 00:07:39,365
Speaker 1: the transformation and you Patsy, as you're now launching your

151
00:07:39,364 --> 00:07:42,444
Speaker 1: second season of this incredible podcast, as you're starting to

152
00:07:42,445 --> 00:07:44,605
Speaker 1: stand in your own powers now outside of what we've

153
00:07:44,645 --> 00:07:47,804
Speaker 1: done together on the show, it's amazing. It brings me

154
00:07:47,885 --> 00:07:50,485
Speaker 1: so much joy seeing the rise in new Patsy from

155
00:07:50,525 --> 00:07:53,285
Speaker 1: where you were. I remember when I chat was the

156
00:07:53,285 --> 00:07:55,165
Speaker 1: first person I hired, and I said, I need a

157
00:07:55,205 --> 00:07:57,565
Speaker 1: really good news reader. I've always worked with great news readers.

158
00:07:57,925 --> 00:08:00,925
Speaker 1: And the boss here said, hey, there's this woman betweena

159
00:08:01,005 --> 00:08:03,245
Speaker 1: Jones and I think she could do so much more.

160
00:08:03,565 --> 00:08:05,684
Speaker 1: And I remember I went to speak to Patsy and

161
00:08:05,725 --> 00:08:08,525
Speaker 1: at the time, you're wearing these very big missus mangle

162
00:08:08,605 --> 00:08:12,564
Speaker 1: glasses another one, and I was like, she was actually

163
00:08:12,605 --> 00:08:15,805
Speaker 1: incredibly intimidating, Like she just sat there. I was like,

164
00:08:16,045 --> 00:08:19,765
Speaker 1: you having to be a big I got good intentions

165
00:08:19,765 --> 00:08:22,565
Speaker 1: already make it in Australia. They learning to be part

166
00:08:22,565 --> 00:08:24,244
Speaker 1: of it. She sat there and she looked through me

167
00:08:24,325 --> 00:08:28,605
Speaker 1: like I've heard it all before from people like you,

168
00:08:30,325 --> 00:08:35,765
Speaker 1: and they're walking away going she's awesome, also genuine. I'm

169
00:08:35,765 --> 00:08:39,285
Speaker 1: actually a bit frightened. No, I did feel that, and

170
00:08:39,285 --> 00:08:41,805
Speaker 1: I think I think that's actually a thing I still am.

171
00:08:42,165 --> 00:08:45,444
Speaker 1: That is the relationship. You're awesome, Pats, and I'm slightly

172
00:08:45,525 --> 00:08:47,605
Speaker 1: scared by you when you bowled in here a couple

173
00:08:47,605 --> 00:08:49,525
Speaker 1: of weeks ago and pointed at me and went, if

174
00:08:49,564 --> 00:08:53,925
Speaker 1: you got feedback for me? Now? Intonation in life? Is

175
00:08:53,925 --> 00:08:56,085
Speaker 1: there anything you can say soon? Hey, have you got

176
00:08:56,084 --> 00:09:00,165
Speaker 1: any feedback for me? That's that's an invitation? Yes, you

177
00:09:00,605 --> 00:09:05,245
Speaker 1: feedback from me? No, I never will.

178
00:09:06,444 --> 00:09:10,365
Speaker 5: I remember our first interaction very very differently, and it

179
00:09:10,405 --> 00:09:13,005
Speaker 5: was so refreshing. And I've never had this in radio

180
00:09:13,125 --> 00:09:16,365
Speaker 5: where I didn't know what your expectations of me were

181
00:09:16,405 --> 00:09:18,564
Speaker 5: other than obviously read the news and do it well.

182
00:09:19,005 --> 00:09:20,724
Speaker 5: And I said to you, you know, I think I

183
00:09:20,804 --> 00:09:22,965
Speaker 5: might have said, you know, what do you need from

184
00:09:22,965 --> 00:09:26,285
Speaker 5: me or something? And you said something very simple, And

185
00:09:26,324 --> 00:09:28,805
Speaker 5: I will never forget what you said. You said to me,

186
00:09:29,045 --> 00:09:30,684
Speaker 5: I just need you to be yourself.

187
00:09:31,125 --> 00:09:33,165
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, and actually your journey of the last

188
00:09:33,204 --> 00:09:36,324
Speaker 1: seven years, you're being more and more yourself on air.

189
00:09:36,365 --> 00:09:39,485
Speaker 1: And I actually remember you're saying, please, if you don't

190
00:09:39,525 --> 00:09:43,165
Speaker 1: find something funny, I say, don't laugh. And but to

191
00:09:43,165 --> 00:09:46,725
Speaker 1: be fair, you've stayed aggressively truth to that. Maybe just

192
00:09:46,885 --> 00:09:51,045
Speaker 1: ease up just occasional once a month but I remember

193
00:09:51,045 --> 00:09:53,565
Speaker 1: saying to you, please don't because it's so hard for

194
00:09:53,645 --> 00:09:56,444
Speaker 1: women in radio to forge a career. It's a lot

195
00:09:56,564 --> 00:09:58,804
Speaker 1: easier for a guy. It just is stacked in our favor.

196
00:09:59,125 --> 00:10:01,125
Speaker 1: So the fact that you'd even got to you know

197
00:10:01,165 --> 00:10:02,684
Speaker 1: where you are past this says a lot just about

198
00:10:02,684 --> 00:10:04,204
Speaker 1: how great you are. But I remember saying to you,

199
00:10:04,845 --> 00:10:07,364
Speaker 1: please don't ever tell me what you think I need

200
00:10:07,405 --> 00:10:09,725
Speaker 1: to hear. Yeah, and then you went, well, what if

201
00:10:10,405 --> 00:10:13,325
Speaker 1: it's awful, it's rude, and I said, well, let me

202
00:10:13,405 --> 00:10:17,405
Speaker 1: worry about that. Bit that we have a lot and

203
00:10:17,804 --> 00:10:19,964
Speaker 1: those are some of my favorite bits. Some most shocking

204
00:10:20,005 --> 00:10:22,684
Speaker 1: bits the show don't come from me. They've come from

205
00:10:22,684 --> 00:10:24,925
Speaker 1: old mate. And there the tyrant on the stamp.

206
00:10:25,804 --> 00:10:27,885
Speaker 5: But it is refreshing because as a woman, you are

207
00:10:28,045 --> 00:10:30,445
Speaker 5: typecast on a lot of in radio, a lot in

208
00:10:30,485 --> 00:10:32,084
Speaker 5: the past where it's like you need to be a

209
00:10:32,165 --> 00:10:34,085
Speaker 5: laughing track or you need to be this, and I

210
00:10:34,125 --> 00:10:35,845
Speaker 5: know that is the last thing you would want from me.

211
00:10:35,885 --> 00:10:38,925
Speaker 5: So I want to thank you for helping me become

212
00:10:39,125 --> 00:10:42,564
Speaker 5: find my voice really, and also I've learned more about

213
00:10:42,605 --> 00:10:45,484
Speaker 5: myself personally than I have I think is a brasil

214
00:10:45,684 --> 00:10:48,725

Speaker 1: you for saying that. But we don't get to have

00:12:26,925 --> 00:12:30,525
Speaker 1: heard of such a thing of majesty. If God could

250
00:12:30,684 --> 00:12:34,805
Speaker 1: make fridges, I'm pretty confident that he would make a

251
00:12:34,965 --> 00:12:38,365
Speaker 1: quad door fridge, and he would gather a team from

252
00:12:38,365 --> 00:12:42,484
Speaker 1: the engineers and eggheads at Bosh. He's what that level

253
00:12:42,525 --> 00:12:44,365
Speaker 1: of attention to detail and engineering.

254
00:12:44,444 --> 00:12:46,685
Speaker 6: Yes, Jesus, you get the left door, Holy Spirit.

255
00:12:48,365 --> 00:12:50,325
Speaker 1: Yes, and then Mother Mary or so she gets you

256
00:12:50,324 --> 00:12:52,645
Speaker 1: on the quad. So it's not Trinity, but it's it's

257
00:12:52,645 --> 00:12:54,605
Speaker 1: the quad. It's a sign different way of him working.

258
00:12:54,605 --> 00:12:58,165
Speaker 1: Actually anyway, this thing has been given away to quarter

259
00:12:58,204 --> 00:13:01,045
Speaker 1: to eight. All right, we'll tell you how you're going

261
00:13:02,684 --> 00:13:04,845
Speaker 1: price this morning at quarter to eight. This quad door

262
00:13:05,005 --> 00:13:09,205
Speaker 1: amazing megafridge. Yeah, mega fridge. I mean you have to

263
00:13:09,285 --> 00:13:12,885
Speaker 1: actually take units out to fit this in or ask

264
00:13:12,965 --> 00:13:16,205
Speaker 1: family members that aren't really pulling their way to get

265
00:13:16,204 --> 00:13:18,285
Speaker 1: out and make way for the quad door fridge. We've

266
00:13:18,285 --> 00:13:23,165
Speaker 1: got a fridge room now. Yes, angels sing, and there's

267
00:13:23,165 --> 00:13:24,885
Speaker 1: also six of the prices. And the way I'm doing

268
00:13:24,925 --> 00:13:26,845
Speaker 1: this then the people have been kind enough to go

269
00:13:26,885 --> 00:13:30,045
Speaker 1: to oz post fill out a card and these days

270
00:13:30,084 --> 00:13:31,485
Speaker 1: when you fill out a card or write a letter

271
00:13:31,525 --> 00:13:35,005
Speaker 1: on that, it actually hurts your hands. Yes, that's such

272
00:13:35,045 --> 00:13:37,605
Speaker 1: a good point. A couple of weeks ago and I

273
00:13:37,645 --> 00:13:40,285
Speaker 1: was like I was getting cramp right, and I was

274
00:13:40,725 --> 00:13:43,204
Speaker 1: a third of the way through, like should I type this?

275
00:13:43,965 --> 00:13:47,085
Speaker 1: Should have typed this? But then it's impersonal typing it,

276
00:13:46,925 --> 00:13:49,125
Speaker 1: and it's and it's so hard because actually our spelling

277
00:13:49,165 --> 00:13:52,324
Speaker 1: isn't very good and also I didn't get a pen license.

278
00:13:53,485 --> 00:13:56,125
Speaker 1: If you've ever seen anything written by me, it's wonky donkey.

279
00:13:56,204 --> 00:13:58,484
Speaker 6: It shows there's no pen license.

280
00:13:59,045 --> 00:14:00,724
Speaker 1: But some of the people that have gone to the

281
00:14:00,725 --> 00:14:03,525
Speaker 1: effort of sending me these birthday cards on today's the

282
00:14:03,684 --> 00:14:06,645
Speaker 1: seventh birth of the show, seeing their handwriting is just

283
00:14:06,684 --> 00:14:08,645
Speaker 1: so lovely. But I appreciate the effort, right It's it's

284
00:14:08,684 --> 00:14:10,005
Speaker 1: effort just to listen to the show and be part

285
00:14:10,005 --> 00:14:12,005
Speaker 1: of the show that way, but to go and get

286
00:14:12,005 --> 00:14:15,405
Speaker 1: into the post office paint fore stamp, and ninety percent

287
00:14:15,444 --> 00:14:19,085
Speaker 1: of you have actually done recorded delivery and it's about

288
00:14:19,085 --> 00:14:21,565
Speaker 1: ten bucks. That's the bit I'm astonished by that you

289
00:14:21,565 --> 00:14:23,965
Speaker 1: would care enough to spend ten bucks to send me

290
00:14:23,965 --> 00:14:26,245
Speaker 1: a birthday card. So I'm actually gonna throughout the show,

291
00:14:26,245 --> 00:14:28,725
Speaker 1: we're going to call some of you. You haven't asked

292
00:14:28,725 --> 00:14:30,124
Speaker 1: for the gifts, but we're going to give it to

293
00:14:30,165 --> 00:14:32,245
Speaker 1: the gifts of people that actually haven't asked for them.

294
00:14:32,525 --> 00:14:34,365
Speaker 1: And we're going to surprise some people right now. So

295
00:14:34,645 --> 00:14:36,485
Speaker 1: the people about to speak to have all been told

296
00:14:36,525 --> 00:14:38,325
Speaker 1: that there are about one thousand people on the lines

297
00:14:38,405 --> 00:14:40,925
Speaker 1: right now, and it might be one of them. That

298
00:14:41,085 --> 00:14:44,165
Speaker 1: isn't strictly true. It's just them. But anyway, let's start

299
00:14:44,205 --> 00:14:45,005
Speaker 1: the giving now.

300
00:14:46,285 --> 00:14:49,605
Speaker 7: Saven years off Christian show.

Speaker 5: I just, you know, wearing heels. Some days you really

00:21:25,565 --> 00:21:27,565
Speaker 5: got to be in the mood anyway. So to come

436
00:21:27,605 --> 00:21:29,565
Speaker 5: to work in the early hours of the morning, I

437
00:21:29,605 --> 00:21:33,925
Speaker 5: had just worn my trusty old white Sketches, which I

438
00:21:33,965 --> 00:21:36,565
Speaker 5: will say had just as friend, No, not the old

439
00:21:36,605 --> 00:21:37,245
Speaker 5: person's friend.

440
00:21:37,485 --> 00:21:39,085
Speaker 1: I went in there about three months ago, and I

441
00:21:39,125 --> 00:21:41,765
Speaker 1: thought because I just walked by and they looked so comfortable,

442
00:21:41,805 --> 00:21:43,925
Speaker 1: and had a quick look on Google and there were

443
00:21:44,165 --> 00:21:47,725
Speaker 1: five thousand and five star reviews. Right, wow, five thousand

444
00:21:47,845 --> 00:21:50,605
Speaker 1: men saying so much comfortable. Yeah, just forget what you

445
00:21:50,645 --> 00:21:52,405
Speaker 1: think about the preconceived of this. So I go do

446
00:21:52,445 --> 00:21:55,005
Speaker 1: you know what. I'm at the age maybe I won't comfort.

447
00:21:55,045 --> 00:21:57,205
Speaker 1: I go in. The guy goes to get me a pair.

448
00:21:57,285 --> 00:22:00,925
Speaker 1: I had a moment of kind of essential acts and

449
00:22:01,285 --> 00:22:03,205
Speaker 1: I got up and went, you're going and I went,

450
00:22:04,125 --> 00:22:08,005
Speaker 1: what times you shut? You put the box here? I

451
00:22:08,005 --> 00:22:10,405
Speaker 1: went five o'clo. We were going to do this. Yeah,

452
00:22:10,445 --> 00:22:15,965
Speaker 1: my wife needs you to look at some They walked out.

453
00:22:16,485 --> 00:22:19,125
Speaker 1: I'm not there yet, Pats there soon.

454
00:22:19,325 --> 00:22:20,445
Speaker 8: I love the choice.

455
00:22:20,565 --> 00:22:21,765
Speaker 6: It's a lifestyle choice.

456
00:22:21,805 --> 00:22:25,485
Speaker 1: It is over style choice. No, but it's a confidence choice.

457
00:22:25,485 --> 00:22:29,285
Speaker 1: You're saying now that comfort matters more than things. I

458
00:22:29,365 --> 00:22:35,004
Speaker 1: don't care how you look something.

459
00:22:35,285 --> 00:22:37,885
Speaker 5: I love these sketches so much. These are my third

460
00:22:37,965 --> 00:22:39,925
Speaker 5: pair of worn out. The other two I've got the

461
00:22:39,965 --> 00:22:43,205
Speaker 5: exact same model of shoe. But what I'm wondering is

462
00:22:43,205 --> 00:22:44,365
Speaker 5: is it socially.

463
00:22:45,005 --> 00:22:48,845
Speaker 1: People like you're listening right now, which ones you well?

464
00:22:48,845 --> 00:22:50,245
Speaker 1: What are they? The sketches what?

465
00:22:50,445 --> 00:22:52,565

Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a person on a cruise.

475
00:23:15,565 --> 00:23:19,285
Speaker 6: Yes, if you're a nurse and you're in the hospital, perfectly.

476
00:23:19,885 --> 00:23:22,925
Speaker 1: Nurse of news is Florence Patsing Girl.

477
00:23:25,045 --> 00:23:29,405
Speaker 4: Christian O'Connell show go on podcast o Asius.

478
00:23:29,125 --> 00:23:30,845
Speaker 1: What's the story? Morning Glory, Good morning.

479
00:23:30,885 --> 00:23:33,325
Speaker 13: It's the Christian O'Connell's show Gold one oh four point

480
00:23:33,365 --> 00:23:41,005
Speaker 13: three last year when the unthinkable was announced but the

481
00:23:41,045 --> 00:23:43,565
Speaker 13: Gallagher brothers Lim and no were actually going to do

482
00:23:43,605 --> 00:23:46,965
Speaker 13: the unthinkable, and having interviewed them both separately so many

483
00:23:47,005 --> 00:23:50,245
Speaker 13: times over the years, Liam had always been up for

484
00:23:50,285 --> 00:23:53,285
Speaker 13: a reunion. Noel was very much never up for him,

485
00:23:53,405 --> 00:23:54,965
Speaker 13: and a lot of people like, what's brought the mat

486
00:23:55,005 --> 00:23:55,565
Speaker 13: together again?

487
00:23:55,685 --> 00:23:58,005
Speaker 1: Is it the millions and millions and millions. I'm sure

488
00:23:58,005 --> 00:24:00,085
Speaker 1: that's factored into it. I don't think it's all about

489
00:24:00,125 --> 00:24:02,645
Speaker 1: that they've been offered so much money to do Glastonbury

490
00:24:02,925 --> 00:24:05,325
Speaker 1: just as a one off show. You can you two

491
00:24:05,405 --> 00:24:07,685
Speaker 1: just be on the same massive stage one hundred feet

492
00:24:07,685 --> 00:24:10,845
Speaker 1: apart at gaston The pyramid stage is huge. You don't

493
00:24:10,885 --> 00:24:12,925
Speaker 1: have to talk to each other. You stand there, you

494
00:24:13,005 --> 00:24:14,685
Speaker 1: stand on the other side of the wing. You weren't

495
00:24:14,725 --> 00:24:17,405
Speaker 1: like twenty million each. They still said no to that.

496
00:24:17,485 --> 00:24:19,605
Speaker 1: I think it's about them getting into their middle of

497
00:24:19,645 --> 00:24:21,845
Speaker 1: their life. And I think it's their mum who's not

498
00:24:21,885 --> 00:24:24,525
Speaker 1: been very well, Peggy, who's had too many Christmases where

499
00:24:24,565 --> 00:24:26,485
Speaker 1: her sons can't be at the table with her. I

500
00:24:26,565 --> 00:24:29,765
Speaker 1: think it's all of that. And I saw an interview

501
00:24:29,845 --> 00:24:31,805
Speaker 1: last year where one of their I think it was

502
00:24:31,805 --> 00:24:36,004
Speaker 1: Liam's son, said that obviously Liam and No have children now,

503
00:24:36,005 --> 00:24:38,125
Speaker 1: and they're in their twenties, so they're not kids. Don't

504
00:24:38,125 --> 00:24:40,765
Speaker 1: fully understand why their two uncles don't speak to each other.

505
00:24:41,045 --> 00:24:43,325
Speaker 1: And obviously they've gone online, they've listened to the music.

506
00:24:43,565 --> 00:24:45,765
Speaker 1: They know this family story, and this happens to families

507
00:24:46,125 --> 00:24:48,165
Speaker 1: all over the world, from like the Raw family now

508
00:24:48,205 --> 00:24:50,645
Speaker 1: fractioned and two brothers that that can't be together in

509
00:24:50,685 --> 00:24:54,045
Speaker 1: their fifties and so, and they said it started to

510
00:24:54,045 --> 00:24:56,525
Speaker 1: become really awkward. Why they they were worried about going

511
00:24:56,565 --> 00:24:58,165
Speaker 1: to talk to each other because obviously they have so

512
00:24:58,245 --> 00:24:59,845
Speaker 1: much to talk about. The dads were in one of

513
00:24:59,845 --> 00:25:02,045
Speaker 1: the biggest, most important bands in the world, you don't

514
00:25:02,045 --> 00:25:04,685
Speaker 1: even get to talk to, you know, a family relative

515
00:25:04,805 --> 00:25:06,885
Speaker 1: like that. Crazy, And so I think that it became

516
00:25:06,925 --> 00:25:08,925
Speaker 1: a bigger, bigger thing. Whereas that really going to be

517
00:25:09,005 --> 00:25:12,005
Speaker 1: the legacy of Oasises. They were just two brothers that

518
00:25:12,045 --> 00:25:14,885
Speaker 1: couldn't get back together. So it's an amazing story and

519
00:25:14,965 --> 00:25:16,965
Speaker 1: rock and roll has these stories. And when it was

520
00:25:17,005 --> 00:25:19,125
Speaker 1: announced last year, what was incredible. I never thought I'd

521
00:25:19,125 --> 00:25:21,605
Speaker 1: ever see Oasis back together, and it's just like they

522
00:25:21,645 --> 00:25:23,285
Speaker 1: both were like it was just I couldn't see how

523
00:25:23,285 --> 00:25:25,285
Speaker 1: it could ever happen. And then when it was announced,

524
00:25:25,325 --> 00:25:29,165
Speaker 1: it became this incredible global news event. And over the

525
00:25:29,205 --> 00:25:31,325
Speaker 1: last couple of years, the biggest demand tickets have been

526
00:25:31,365 --> 00:25:33,645
Speaker 1: Taylor Swift. And I was with my daughters last year

527
00:25:33,805 --> 00:25:36,605
Speaker 1: at the MCG the Eras tour, and it was incredible.

528
00:25:36,685 --> 00:25:39,325
Speaker 1: I saw what it did to all the wide eyed

529
00:25:39,445 --> 00:25:42,525
Speaker 1: fans that her music really really speaks to them, It

530
00:25:42,525 --> 00:25:44,885
Speaker 1: connects them. They're drawn to Taylor Swift. This was me

531
00:25:44,925 --> 00:25:46,645
Speaker 1: an Oasis when I was in my twenties one. I

532
00:25:46,685 --> 00:25:49,245
Speaker 1: had no money. There were two working class boys like

533
00:25:49,285 --> 00:25:51,685
Speaker 1: me from very poor backgrounds. They just lit so many

534
00:25:51,685 --> 00:25:55,045
Speaker 1: people up. They're about dreaming big. They actually dreamt big,

535
00:25:55,165 --> 00:25:58,685
Speaker 1: they made their dream happen and living it large, and

536
00:25:58,685 --> 00:26:01,085
Speaker 1: that's what you want from your rock stars. Now rock

537
00:26:01,085 --> 00:26:04,085
Speaker 1: stars don't speak and behavior like that for very good reasons. Okay,

538
00:26:04,445 --> 00:26:06,885
Speaker 1: back in the nineties they were that energy where you

539
00:26:06,925 --> 00:26:09,445
Speaker 1: could dream big and actually make it happen. There was

540
00:26:09,485 --> 00:26:12,925
Speaker 1: something very magnetic about Oasis and the way they were.

541
00:26:13,125 --> 00:26:15,245
Speaker 1: I haven't seen them live over the over the years.

542
00:26:15,485 --> 00:26:18,205
Speaker 1: You know, the live show isn't really about the quality

543
00:26:18,245 --> 00:26:20,725
Speaker 1: of the music. It's about the connection with the fans.

544
00:26:20,925 --> 00:26:23,365
Speaker 1: I saw it Tyler Swift, completely different acts, but the

545
00:26:23,405 --> 00:26:26,045
Speaker 1: same that wide eyed what it's like to have your

546
00:26:26,085 --> 00:26:29,245
Speaker 1: favorite band that really just connects you in ways you

547
00:26:29,245 --> 00:26:32,085
Speaker 1: don't really fully understand. So what I'm saying is this

548
00:26:32,205 --> 00:26:34,965
Speaker 1: news that is now only that last year was next year.

549
00:26:35,085 --> 00:26:38,605
Speaker 1: They're coming to London, They're coming to Australia, They're coming

550
00:26:38,645 --> 00:26:42,045
Speaker 1: to Melbourne, getting tickets, trying to get tickets. That now

551
00:26:42,245 --> 00:26:44,885
Speaker 1: is now next month. They've been rehearsing over the last

552
00:26:44,885 --> 00:26:46,885
Speaker 1: couple of weeks. I can tell you I've got friends

553
00:26:46,885 --> 00:26:49,685
Speaker 1: who've been to the rehearsals. Lim isn't even there yet,

554
00:26:51,845 --> 00:26:54,365
Speaker 1: No wants have grown ups in the room, for a while.

555
00:26:54,445 --> 00:26:56,605
Speaker 1: First of all, before we've beat the old Luce cannon

556
00:26:56,645 --> 00:26:58,965
Speaker 1: in I reckon E's going to do it like two

557
00:26:59,005 --> 00:27:01,405
Speaker 1: days before they go on stage. You know, all right,

558
00:27:01,445 --> 00:27:03,485
Speaker 1: we've done the hard work. Brother, You turn up and

559
00:27:03,525 --> 00:27:06,125
Speaker 1: do your bit, okay, just wander on stage and stare

560
00:27:06,165 --> 00:27:09,445
Speaker 1: at the crowd menacingly. So this is that's an amazing prize.

561
00:27:09,485 --> 00:27:12,445
Speaker 1: I am so jealous to be there in London at

562
00:27:12,445 --> 00:27:15,205
Speaker 1: Wembley Stadium, which is an amazing venue. Ninety thousand people.

563
00:27:15,405 --> 00:27:18,045
Speaker 1: How many sold out nights are Wassis doing in Wembley.

564
00:27:17,765 --> 00:27:20,405
Speaker 6: Seven and seventeen in the UK. That's sold out in

565
00:27:20,965 --> 00:27:21,925
Speaker 6: record record time.

566
00:27:22,245 --> 00:27:25,125
Speaker 1: It's the biggest demand for a live concert ever in

567
00:27:25,125 --> 00:27:27,645
Speaker 1: the UK, Bigger than Beyonce, bigger than Taylor Swift and

568
00:27:27,685 --> 00:27:29,925
Speaker 1: fat for men and women of a certain age. This

569
00:27:30,085 --> 00:27:33,645
Speaker 1: is our eras tour, This says actually my era. So

570
00:27:33,645 --> 00:27:35,685
Speaker 1: I've finally worked out what it is and I know

571
00:27:35,725 --> 00:27:36,765
Speaker 1: it is for a lot of people, but just a

572
00:27:36,845 --> 00:27:39,565
Speaker 1: huge demand here in Australia for the shows in Melbourne

573
00:27:40,125 --> 00:27:42,765
Speaker 1: Marvel as well, just selling out so quickly. So we're

574
00:27:42,805 --> 00:27:45,565
Speaker 1: going to fly two of you to London July the

575
00:27:45,685 --> 00:27:49,245
Speaker 1: twenty fifth and that's the first night in London. Andre

576
00:27:49,285 --> 00:27:52,005
Speaker 1: and I were just saying, I'm actually jealous because to

577
00:27:52,085 --> 00:27:56,165
Speaker 1: be there when those two boys walk on stage together

578
00:27:56,805 --> 00:27:59,205
Speaker 1: and then start up whatever the first song is, I

579
00:27:59,245 --> 00:28:02,125
Speaker 1: wouldn't be surprised if it is, what's the story Morning Glory?

580
00:28:02,365 --> 00:28:04,925
Speaker 1: Like they pick it up like the sixteen years of animosity.

581
00:28:05,205 --> 00:28:07,645
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter anymore. It all just dissolves the back.

582
00:28:07,925 --> 00:28:10,285
Speaker 1: Who cares why they're back. We get to have it

583
00:28:10,325 --> 00:28:12,685
Speaker 1: one more time, to re experience that joint. You're not

584
00:28:12,765 --> 00:28:16,045
Speaker 1: just reconnecting with a band into left fifties. I think

585
00:28:16,085 --> 00:28:19,485
Speaker 1: actually you'll reconnect him with that twenty or teenage version

586
00:28:19,525 --> 00:28:22,725
Speaker 1: of yourself. There's always that band where at some time

587
00:28:22,765 --> 00:28:24,725
Speaker 1: in your life they come to you at the right time.

588
00:28:25,085 --> 00:28:27,085
Speaker 1: They're like they're everything too. And that was the otis

589
00:28:27,125 --> 00:28:28,725
Speaker 1: from you in many people all over the world. So

590
00:28:28,805 --> 00:28:30,765
Speaker 1: this is an amazing price. We're going to fly two

591
00:28:30,765 --> 00:28:32,485
Speaker 1: of you to London. We can put you up in

592
00:28:32,485 --> 00:28:34,085
Speaker 1: a great hotel right in the middle of London. So

593
00:28:34,205 --> 00:28:36,965
Speaker 1: even in London in the summertime, well theory in the summertime.

594
00:28:37,005 --> 00:28:39,005
Speaker 1: So don't we put that in the tea's and c's.

595
00:28:39,525 --> 00:28:41,685
Speaker 1: He did say it should be summertime, but I haven't

596
00:28:41,725 --> 00:28:44,125
Speaker 1: been through so many of those UK summers it can

597
00:28:44,245 --> 00:28:46,325
Speaker 1: be a bit sketchy. Hopefully it'd be summertime. It should

598
00:28:46,325 --> 00:28:48,365
Speaker 1: have been through it summertime. You'll have a great week in

599
00:28:48,365 --> 00:28:50,725
Speaker 1: London and on that Friday night on behalf of the show,

600
00:28:50,765 --> 00:28:53,045
Speaker 1: you'll be reviewing it. On the Monday back, you'll be

601
00:28:53,085 --> 00:28:56,605
Speaker 1: there to see history, basically rock and roll history in London.

602
00:28:57,085 --> 00:28:58,445
Speaker 1: So the way you do this, I want you to

603
00:28:58,565 --> 00:29:00,205
Speaker 1: I want us to go to a fan. Obviously, I

604
00:29:00,205 --> 00:29:02,565
Speaker 1: am aware that this is a great prize, but I really,

605
00:29:02,605 --> 00:29:04,285
Speaker 1: my heart really does want to be giving it to

606
00:29:04,325 --> 00:29:06,765
Speaker 1: someone that is an Oasis fan that isn't just doing

607
00:29:06,805 --> 00:29:08,525
Speaker 1: this to get a trip to London. And I'd understand,

608
00:29:08,525 --> 00:29:10,565
Speaker 1: and if you want to do that, please don't take

609
00:29:10,605 --> 00:29:12,005
Speaker 1: part of this. I want it to go to a

610
00:29:12,085 --> 00:29:13,965
Speaker 1: fan that is really going to be one of those

611
00:29:14,245 --> 00:29:16,405
Speaker 1: whoever is you're taking out there, whether you're looking at

612
00:29:16,405 --> 00:29:19,125
Speaker 1: each other, will always remember this. I can't. It's even

613
00:29:19,165 --> 00:29:21,205
Speaker 1: better in a way seeing them when they're at the

614
00:29:21,245 --> 00:29:23,485
Speaker 1: peak of their powers in the nineties. There's something more

615
00:29:23,485 --> 00:29:26,045
Speaker 1: magical about something which didn't look like it was ever

616
00:29:26,085 --> 00:29:27,645
Speaker 1: going to happen. You'll be part of rock and roll

617
00:29:27,725 --> 00:29:30,165
Speaker 1: history to say, oh I was there, I was actually

957
00:46:03,365 --> 00:46:08,165
Speaker 1: Doug Christian Doug, what are the odds?

958
00:46:09,365 --> 00:46:12,405
Speaker 15: Well, my story is that when I was at nineteen,

959
00:46:12,525 --> 00:46:15,525
Speaker 15: my friend and a few others decided to move the

960
00:46:15,605 --> 00:46:18,445
Speaker 15: teacher's car and twisted twisted his and they went into hospital.

961
00:46:18,885 --> 00:46:20,925
Speaker 15: So I said, I'll come and see you Wednesday, Steve.

962
00:46:20,965 --> 00:46:22,485
Speaker 15: And then on Wednesday I turned out to be quite

963
00:46:22,525 --> 00:46:24,125
Speaker 15: a sunny day, so for the climb, I go, is

964
00:46:24,165 --> 00:46:26,045
Speaker 15: it not going to go to Steve, I'll go for

965
00:46:26,085 --> 00:46:29,125
Speaker 15: a bike ride instead. And I went for a bike

966
00:46:29,205 --> 00:46:32,325
Speaker 15: ride and got hit by a car and they ended

967
00:46:32,365 --> 00:46:35,484
Speaker 15: up taking me into the same hospital and the same room,

968
00:46:36,045 --> 00:46:38,085
Speaker 15: straight across from Steve.

969
00:46:38,485 --> 00:46:39,364
Speaker 10: While his family was.

970
00:46:39,765 --> 00:46:42,285
Speaker 1: So you were going you were destined to go meet

971
00:46:42,365 --> 00:46:42,964
Speaker 1: him that day.

972
00:46:43,685 --> 00:46:45,125
Speaker 10: I should have just done what I said I was

973
00:46:45,165 --> 00:46:45,525
Speaker 10: going to do.

974
00:46:46,645 --> 00:46:48,965
Speaker 1: In my mind, was it that car you tried to

975
00:46:49,005 --> 00:46:50,605
Speaker 1: move that actually knocked you off on that bike?

976
00:46:53,165 --> 00:46:55,245
Speaker 15: And even the next day they're going, come on, people

977
00:46:55,285 --> 00:46:57,685
Speaker 15: need this bed, you know, like I'd set this whole

978
00:46:57,685 --> 00:47:00,165
Speaker 15: thing up and got plaster on my lead from hip

979
00:47:00,285 --> 00:47:00,765

00:47:16,565 --> 00:47:22,005
Speaker 11: Bobby Boy, Okay, I had a bait. He's down deceased.

984
00:47:22,085 --> 00:47:25,045
Speaker 11: He's been going for about ten fifteen years now. He

985
00:47:25,205 --> 00:47:27,765
Speaker 11: was a Vietnam veteran.

986
00:47:28,045 --> 00:47:28,485
Speaker 1: Wow.

987
00:47:29,085 --> 00:47:34,325
Speaker 11: And when he was coming home on HbA or Sydney

988
00:47:35,365 --> 00:47:38,965
Speaker 11: in the late sixties early seventies, he must have had

989
00:47:39,005 --> 00:47:41,485
Speaker 11: a really bad time over there, because when he was

990
00:47:41,525 --> 00:47:44,325
Speaker 11: out in the Gulf of Vietnam or where we're on

991
00:47:44,325 --> 00:47:47,924
Speaker 11: the way home back to Sydney, he threw his dog

992
00:47:48,005 --> 00:47:55,845
Speaker 11: tags overboard when he came home. He came home and

993
00:47:55,885 --> 00:47:57,405
Speaker 11: then he died of cancer.

994
00:47:58,125 --> 00:48:03,045
Speaker 16: A fisherman from Vietnam obviously pulled him up in his

995
00:48:03,165 --> 00:48:08,085
Speaker 16: debt or on his line, found the dog tags and

996
00:48:08,765 --> 00:48:12,765
Speaker 16: did some research and sent them back to his family

997
00:48:12,885 --> 00:48:13,725

00:52:14,965 --> 00:52:18,924
Speaker 3: that was donated to my aunt. My aunt, so she's

1086
00:52:19,005 --> 00:52:21,444
Speaker 3: now she's passed, but she's about one hundred and one.

1087
00:52:21,965 --> 00:52:24,685
Speaker 3: She was donated. She was gifted a book as a

1088
00:52:24,725 --> 00:52:27,285
Speaker 3: reader when she was in grade one for good reading.

1089
00:52:27,365 --> 00:52:29,525
Speaker 3: The book was called Budge and Betty and we lost it,

1090
00:52:29,845 --> 00:52:33,525
Speaker 3: never found it. And years later, when my twins were

1091
00:52:33,645 --> 00:52:36,245
Speaker 3: growing up, they were teenagers, they had a friend whose

1092
00:52:36,325 --> 00:52:39,045
Speaker 3: mum worked at a regional library and that was closing down,

1093
00:52:39,445 --> 00:52:41,525
Speaker 3: and she gave us a box of books and she said,

1094
00:52:41,645 --> 00:52:44,005
Speaker 3: go through these books, you might like them. And in

1095
00:52:44,045 --> 00:52:49,285
Speaker 3: there was the book that was donated to my mind. Yeah,

1096
00:52:49,325 --> 00:52:52,885
Speaker 3: and in it is inscribed gifted to Audrey Brown for

1097
00:52:52,925 --> 00:52:56,445
Speaker 3: great reading in grade one. Now we worked out the

1098
00:52:56,485 --> 00:53:01,005
Speaker 3: book is at least ninety years old, and I've taken

1099
00:53:01,045 --> 00:53:03,245
Speaker 3: a photo and sent her to her daughter, who has

1100
00:53:03,325 --> 00:53:05,165
Speaker 3: confirmed it is the actual book.

1101
00:53:06,165 --> 00:53:06,645
Speaker 1: Want to cry?

1102
00:53:06,805 --> 00:53:11,844
Speaker 3: What for a wrong? Yeah? So all these years later

1103
00:53:11,965 --> 00:53:14,605
Speaker 3: I now have in my possession, the book that belonged

1104
00:53:14,605 --> 00:53:17,645
Speaker 3: to my aunt that I got read when I was

1105
00:53:17,685 --> 00:53:20,645
Speaker 3: a child, so I was probably three or four years old.

1106
00:53:20,765 --> 00:53:22,405
Speaker 1: And it's so much more than a book, isn't There

1107
00:53:22,525 --> 00:53:26,005
Speaker 1: all these more generations. So do you say ninety.

1108
00:53:25,805 --> 00:53:29,125
Speaker 3: Years it's at least ninety years old this book so

1109
00:53:29,285 --> 00:53:32,405
Speaker 3: much has happened showing that time, and we don't know

1110
00:53:32,445 --> 00:53:36,685
Speaker 3: where it went and where it got to or it. Yeah,

1111
00:53:37,125 --> 00:53:37,485
Speaker 3: all the.

1112
00:53:37,485 --> 00:53:39,925
Speaker 1: Young kids that would have read it and read it

1113
00:53:39,965 --> 00:53:40,725
Speaker 1: and enjoyed it.

1114
00:53:41,245 --> 00:53:44,525
Speaker 3: Yeah, and looks it's very tattered and torn and everything.

1115
00:53:44,165 --> 00:53:47,685
Speaker 1: And you consumer, I think a bit ted fi.

1116
00:53:49,125 --> 00:53:52,925
Speaker 3: I've been read in loved and obviously knew, but like,

1117
00:53:53,165 --> 00:53:56,165
Speaker 3: it's just such a key mistake. And now my daughter

1118
00:53:56,485 --> 00:53:59,844
Speaker 3: is in early childhood and I'm giving it to her

1119
00:53:59,965 --> 00:54:02,525
Speaker 3: as the next generation to take it on and give

1120
00:54:02,565 --> 00:54:04,685
Speaker 3: it and she'll have it for her children to read

1121
00:54:04,725 --> 00:54:05,085
Speaker 3: to them.

1122
00:54:05,485 --> 00:54:07,245
Speaker 1: So, you know what, not that long and it will

1123
00:54:07,285 --> 00:54:09,285
Speaker 1: go into one hundred years and beyond.

1124
00:54:09,925 --> 00:54:11,925
Speaker 3: Yes, absolutely, that's incredible.

1125
00:54:11,925 --> 00:54:14,885
Speaker 1: There's something about the magic of children's books. I have

1126
00:54:15,085 --> 00:54:18,765
Speaker 1: virtually you know, you can't keep every keepsake from your

1127
00:54:18,805 --> 00:54:22,525
Speaker 1: children book. Virtually all the books I have kept and

1128
00:54:22,805 --> 00:54:24,525
Speaker 1: when you touch them. I bet it's saying with this

1129
00:54:24,565 --> 00:54:27,605
Speaker 1: book that special books, especially children's books, right, because their

1130
00:54:27,645 --> 00:54:31,965
Speaker 1: joyous things, children's books, they have this incredible energy to them.

1131
00:54:32,005 --> 00:54:34,365
Speaker 1: And about when you touched it again, you felt that

1132
00:54:34,445 --> 00:54:36,805
Speaker 1: almost like a magnetic energy to it when you touch them.

1133
00:54:36,885 --> 00:54:40,205
Speaker 3: Well, it's the wonderment of how I learned to explore

1134
00:54:40,245 --> 00:54:42,844
Speaker 3: as a child about what reading was all about. And

1135
00:54:42,885 --> 00:54:45,405
Speaker 3: I've tried to instill in my children that reading is

1136
00:54:45,405 --> 00:54:48,565
Speaker 3: an exploration of life and all the dreams that you

1137
00:54:48,645 --> 00:54:51,725
Speaker 3: can have. And now my daughter's doing that with her

1138
00:54:51,845 --> 00:54:56,805
Speaker 3: generation of children she's teaching, and it just warms your heart.

1139
00:54:57,085 --> 00:54:58,605
Speaker 3: It's just really warms your heart.

1140
00:54:58,925 --> 00:55:01,484
Speaker 1: Yeah, Wonderment is a beautiful word. I love that word.

1141
00:55:01,565 --> 00:55:03,045
Speaker 1: A couple of years ago, I was going to do

1142
00:55:03,085 --> 00:55:05,765
Speaker 1: a podcast called Wonderment. I just I didn't have any

1143
00:55:05,765 --> 00:55:08,045
Speaker 1: idea what it was. I just loved the phrase and

1144
00:55:08,085 --> 00:55:11,245
Speaker 1: so I but I absolutely love the phrase wonderment. You're right,

1145
00:55:11,285 --> 00:55:12,805
Speaker 1: that is the power reading it is.

1146
00:55:12,925 --> 00:55:16,525
Speaker 3: It's the power of passing on and like for me,

1147
00:55:17,285 --> 00:55:19,325
Speaker 3: you know, my mum would be so thrilled to know

1148
00:55:19,365 --> 00:55:23,565
Speaker 3: that reading through that will be the fifth generation going

1149
00:55:23,605 --> 00:55:27,445
Speaker 3: through that book. It's gone through five generations, and then

1150
00:55:27,565 --> 00:55:30,325
Speaker 3: when my daughter has her child, it'll be the sixth generation.

1151
00:55:30,765 --> 00:55:33,844
Speaker 3: We'll have that book and keeping it going. And she

1152
00:55:33,965 --> 00:55:37,405
Speaker 3: said it'll pass through history again. And that's where it

1153
00:55:37,525 --> 00:55:41,645
Speaker 3: excites me that reading is still such a universal thing

1154
00:55:41,685 --> 00:55:44,725
Speaker 3: that we can all be part of, because like these days,

1155
00:55:44,765 --> 00:55:47,965
Speaker 3: you know, we've all got iPhones and iPads and all that,

1156
00:55:48,005 --> 00:55:52,765
Speaker 3: and we've lost that wanting to learn and read and enjoy.

1157
00:55:53,405 --> 00:55:55,445
Speaker 3: You know, there's nothing better than sitting in a corner

1158
00:55:55,485 --> 00:55:57,925
Speaker 3: and picking up a book and sitting in the sunshine

1159
00:55:57,965 --> 00:55:58,445
Speaker 3: and reading.

1160
00:55:58,565 --> 00:56:00,365
Speaker 1: Oh my god, it's the best thing. Well, just losing

1161
00:56:00,365 --> 00:56:02,405
Speaker 1: yourself in the book. And the important thing is that

1162
00:56:02,645 --> 00:56:05,285
Speaker 1: kids are listening right now. There's so many great powerful

1163
00:56:05,285 --> 00:56:08,445
Speaker 1: distractions your phones and your game stations and playboys now.

1164
00:56:08,605 --> 00:56:10,765
Speaker 1: But what reading does and why it's really important to

1165
00:56:10,885 --> 00:56:13,085
Speaker 1: because it gives you empathy. Because if you can't read

1166
00:56:13,085 --> 00:56:15,325
Speaker 1: a book and not empathize about a character you don't

1167
00:56:15,325 --> 00:56:17,685
Speaker 1: even know, whether that's Harry Potter. You have to enter

1168
00:56:17,685 --> 00:56:20,085
Speaker 1: into somebody else's world and imagine what it's like to

1169
00:56:20,085 --> 00:56:22,125
Speaker 1: be them, and right now, they're One of the things

1170
00:56:22,125 --> 00:56:24,125
Speaker 1: that we're losing is empathy for each other. It's a

1171
00:56:24,245 --> 00:56:25,485
Speaker 1: very angry time to.

1172
00:56:25,485 --> 00:56:29,525
Speaker 3: Be alive to where their thinking is, where they're going

1173
00:56:29,805 --> 00:56:33,725
Speaker 3: on their journey. It's the transportation of you going into

1174
00:56:33,845 --> 00:56:36,845
Speaker 3: their mind and where they're taking you on a journey

1175
00:56:37,325 --> 00:56:40,085
Speaker 3: of what you're reading. And yeah, I just loved That's

1176
00:56:40,125 --> 00:56:41,125
Speaker 3: what reading is to me.

1177
00:56:41,645 --> 00:56:43,765
Speaker 1: Yeah, Lauria, it's the same to me. Literally, my life

1178
00:56:43,885 --> 00:56:45,325
Speaker 1: was changed with my dad. We didn't have a lot

1179
00:56:45,325 --> 00:56:47,325
Speaker 1: of money for new books or books and meals growing up.

1180
00:56:47,605 --> 00:56:49,725
Speaker 1: That dad took me to the local library where it's free,

1181
00:56:50,005 --> 00:56:52,925
Speaker 1: and reading changed my entire life. I still read three

1182
00:56:53,045 --> 00:56:55,445
Speaker 1: or four books a month. My dad in that moment,

1183
00:56:55,445 --> 00:56:56,964
Speaker 1: introduced them at the age of nine. Of the joy

1184
00:56:56,965 --> 00:56:59,605
Speaker 1: of books changed everything for me. I learned more from

1185
00:56:59,605 --> 00:57:01,405
Speaker 1: books i did at school. I wasn't gring to school.

1186
00:57:01,405 --> 00:57:04,125
Speaker 1: The books change my life still do now anything. If

1187
00:57:04,125 --> 00:57:06,325
Speaker 1: I'm ever any good at this is because of reading.

1188
00:57:06,405 --> 00:57:08,805
Speaker 1: That's it for me. Every single week of reading something,

1189
00:57:08,845 --> 00:57:11,125
Speaker 1: I love it. Laurie. This has been like it's like

1190
00:57:11,245 --> 00:57:14,765
Speaker 1: listening to a Ted talk and no, no, a better

1191
00:57:14,805 --> 00:57:18,125
Speaker 1: Ted talk actually, because it's spontaneous and the way you

1192
00:57:18,205 --> 00:57:21,645
Speaker 1: have a like a word magician that comes from someone

1193
00:57:21,725 --> 00:57:23,605
Speaker 1: who has a deep love of learning and reading.

1194
00:57:25,005 --> 00:57:26,765
Speaker 3: I think that's just old age.

1195
00:57:26,805 --> 00:57:30,805
Speaker 1: I think no, no, that's mastery. That's mastery. That's not

1196
00:57:30,845 --> 00:57:33,005
Speaker 1: old age. That is mastery, Laurie, that's what it is.

1197
00:57:33,045 --> 00:57:35,365
Speaker 1: You should know that now listen. A very small gift,

1198
00:57:35,365 --> 00:57:37,165
Speaker 1: but I'd love to say thank you, because you never

1199
00:57:37,165 --> 00:57:39,165
Speaker 1: know who's listening when you when you have conversations like

1200
00:57:39,165 --> 00:57:41,005
Speaker 1: this on the radio. We're doing the show and it

1201
00:57:41,045 --> 00:57:43,005
Speaker 1: bubbles along and it's all froth and it's lovely. And

1202
00:57:43,005 --> 00:57:45,325
Speaker 1: then sometimes it's lovely about the show we have and

1203
00:57:45,325 --> 00:57:48,485
Speaker 1: people like you, Laurie's when sometimes you can dip a

1204
00:57:48,525 --> 00:57:51,045
Speaker 1: bit deeper into a conversation and I love that what

1205
00:57:51,085 --> 00:57:54,125
Speaker 1: you said about the joy of reading and that powerful story.

1206
00:57:54,365 --> 00:57:55,685
Speaker 1: You never know who won't we be listening right now,

1207
00:57:55,725 --> 00:57:57,445
Speaker 1: a kid who's having a tough time, or actually just

1208
00:57:57,485 --> 00:58:00,365
Speaker 1: Fanci's reading because somebody outside of Mum and Dad said

1209
00:58:00,365 --> 00:58:02,325
Speaker 1: you should read. It's good for you. It really really is.

1210
00:58:02,365 --> 00:58:05,325
Speaker 1: It did transform my life and still does and you

1211
00:58:05,365 --> 00:58:07,205
Speaker 1: know what it's done for your family's love as well.

1212
00:58:07,245 --> 00:58:09,125
Speaker 1: So as a small thank you, I'd love to give
