WEBVTT - MINI: Making Friends

0:00:01.520 --> 0:00:05.200
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to them, Christian no Common Show podcast. This time

0:00:05.320 --> 0:00:07.760
<v Speaker 1>yesterday on the show, I was playing you this terrible

0:00:07.800 --> 0:00:10.080
<v Speaker 1>noise that my washing machine was making. It was broken.

0:00:10.520 --> 0:00:13.280
<v Speaker 1>Guy comes around yesterday afternoon. He fixes about the hour

0:00:13.320 --> 0:00:16.880
<v Speaker 1>they're taking it apart. I made the situation a lot worse.

0:00:17.280 --> 0:00:19.520
<v Speaker 1>One of our listeners yesterday gave me advice, saying, it

0:00:19.600 --> 0:00:22.280
<v Speaker 1>might just be this. I tried to fix it myself, right,

0:00:22.800 --> 0:00:24.680
<v Speaker 1>don't put this in a podcast. My wife can't hear

0:00:24.680 --> 0:00:26.680
<v Speaker 1>this because it costs notes one hundred and fifty dollars.

0:00:27.200 --> 0:00:29.000
<v Speaker 1>What would have been an easier fix. I've made a

0:00:29.000 --> 0:00:32.159
<v Speaker 1>lot complicated because I tried to remedy it myself. My

0:00:32.200 --> 0:00:34.080
<v Speaker 1>guy over here someone said, oh, it might be this

0:00:34.120 --> 0:00:37.479
<v Speaker 1>inlet thing. Just give that a tap. I gave it.

0:00:37.479 --> 0:00:39.560
<v Speaker 1>When I got back, I thought, tap, you need to

0:00:39.600 --> 0:00:41.080
<v Speaker 1>have great A tap isn't going to mend this, So

0:00:41.120 --> 0:00:43.720
<v Speaker 1>I gave it a real like punch. Something disappeared and

0:00:43.840 --> 0:00:46.120
<v Speaker 1>shut up into the guts of the washing machine. That

0:00:46.159 --> 0:00:48.800
<v Speaker 1>took the man that came out of yesterday, Richard, How

0:00:48.800 --> 0:00:54.080
<v Speaker 1>did this get in? The bloody kids? Were they five teenagers? Actually?

0:00:54.960 --> 0:00:55.040
<v Speaker 2>So?

0:00:55.080 --> 0:00:58.080
<v Speaker 1>Anyway, this guy yesterday came out and he repaired it. Afterwards.

0:00:58.120 --> 0:01:00.480
<v Speaker 1>We're in my little narrow utility room that you get

0:01:00.480 --> 0:01:01.800
<v Speaker 1>in a lot of houses, right, it's quite a narrow

0:01:01.840 --> 0:01:03.960
<v Speaker 1>little space. We're having a little bit of chat. He's

0:01:04.000 --> 0:01:05.960
<v Speaker 1>about an extra eight or nine years older than me.

0:01:06.160 --> 0:01:09.640
<v Speaker 1>He's got four kids, three daughters. We start talking about daughters.

0:01:09.840 --> 0:01:11.560
<v Speaker 1>His daughters are a couple of years ahead of mine.

0:01:11.560 --> 0:01:13.320
<v Speaker 1>We were talking about what happens when they leave them.

0:01:13.440 --> 0:01:15.160
<v Speaker 1>We suddenly for half an hour, just like you do

0:01:15.240 --> 0:01:18.960
<v Speaker 1>sometimes in life, you find yourself stumbling into an actual, deeper,

0:01:19.120 --> 0:01:20.680
<v Speaker 1>very real, intimate conversation.

0:01:20.760 --> 0:01:22.319
<v Speaker 3>But you had it all in the laundry.

0:01:22.400 --> 0:01:25.479
<v Speaker 1>Yep, all in the utility too. I might put microphones

0:01:25.520 --> 0:01:28.520
<v Speaker 1>in there and start doing a podcast in there. It

0:01:28.640 --> 0:01:31.640
<v Speaker 1>got real very quickly between us, so much so right,

0:01:31.680 --> 0:01:33.360
<v Speaker 1>we're getting on so well. Then we're talking about guys.

0:01:33.400 --> 0:01:35.480
<v Speaker 1>Do we start to like the Ashes? He's talking about

0:01:35.520 --> 0:01:37.440
<v Speaker 1>growing up when during the eighties when he used to

0:01:37.440 --> 0:01:40.520
<v Speaker 1>watch the actually Ashes and players like Ingle, players like Ian,

0:01:40.520 --> 0:01:42.000
<v Speaker 1>both of them. I didn't play without a head guard.

0:01:42.200 --> 0:01:43.920
<v Speaker 1>So you know what we're going on really well? And

0:01:43.920 --> 0:01:45.480
<v Speaker 1>then I say, what do you live? Where's home for you?

0:01:45.520 --> 0:01:48.080
<v Speaker 1>He's not that far from me. We've swapped numbers. We're

0:01:48.120 --> 0:01:50.680
<v Speaker 1>meeting up for a beer next one. A friendship has

0:01:50.720 --> 0:01:55.640
<v Speaker 1>come out of patronize, don't it's nice. I'm looking forward

0:01:55.680 --> 0:01:57.440
<v Speaker 1>to seeing Richard. I feel like I made a new

0:01:57.440 --> 0:02:01.320
<v Speaker 1>friend yesterday. So sometimes it works. Normally, is a lot

0:02:01.320 --> 0:02:05.120
<v Speaker 1>of your friends, okay, are the ones you've had since child?

0:02:05.320 --> 0:02:07.080
<v Speaker 1>All right? And then what happens when you become a

0:02:07.280 --> 0:02:09.960
<v Speaker 1>parent is some of your friends then are you know,

0:02:10.080 --> 0:02:13.200
<v Speaker 1>maybe for a parenting group or kids at the school.

0:02:13.240 --> 0:02:15.160
<v Speaker 1>So that the only other way then is that there

0:02:15.160 --> 0:02:18.079
<v Speaker 1>are no unusual ways that sometimes you strike up a friendship.

0:02:18.360 --> 0:02:21.919
<v Speaker 1>So for me it's it's my washing machine engineer. We're

0:02:21.960 --> 0:02:24.000
<v Speaker 1>going out for beers next week and I think we'll

0:02:24.040 --> 0:02:25.799
<v Speaker 1>probably become mates. I really like this guy.

0:02:25.880 --> 0:02:28.160
<v Speaker 3>Well, I've been out for a few beers with by physio.

0:02:28.960 --> 0:02:32.320
<v Speaker 1>Was this after a physio session? Normally drinks lead toy

0:02:32.680 --> 0:02:35.560
<v Speaker 1>and lying down Jackie boy does it separately?

0:02:35.639 --> 0:02:38.040
<v Speaker 3>I was. I saw him maybe three or four times.

0:02:38.080 --> 0:02:40.079
<v Speaker 3>His name is Joss. They've gone along really well with him,

0:02:40.080 --> 0:02:42.840
<v Speaker 3>and then one time I was the last client that

0:02:42.880 --> 0:02:43.560
<v Speaker 3>he had for the day.

0:02:46.200 --> 0:02:50.799
<v Speaker 1>After this little ruby, don't we put some clothes on.

0:02:51.639 --> 0:02:53.000
<v Speaker 3>We went around the corner for a beer.

0:02:53.080 --> 0:02:55.120
<v Speaker 1>That's so nice. I wonder how he is.

0:02:55.120 --> 0:02:57.560
<v Speaker 3>That was a few years ago. Now I miss him.

0:02:58.400 --> 0:02:58.960
<v Speaker 1>Reach out to him.

0:03:00.840 --> 0:03:02.079
<v Speaker 3>You've just reminded me about that.

0:03:02.160 --> 0:03:04.200
<v Speaker 1>He's now probably wondering. Was he not good enough with

0:03:04.240 --> 0:03:05.320
<v Speaker 1>the conversational band?

0:03:05.919 --> 0:03:07.799
<v Speaker 3>He was great, and he was a great physio. He

0:03:07.960 --> 0:03:10.160
<v Speaker 3>used to over the beer. He told me this. He

0:03:10.360 --> 0:03:12.760
<v Speaker 3>listens to physio podcasts for fun.

0:03:16.440 --> 0:03:18.360
<v Speaker 1>I wish i'd been not that beer. It must have

0:03:18.400 --> 0:03:21.120
<v Speaker 1>been a really amazing chat. I can get the feeling

0:03:21.160 --> 0:03:23.320
<v Speaker 1>that he did never called you again, or change his

0:03:23.360 --> 0:03:27.880
<v Speaker 1>mobile or move to Bolivia. Okay, do you know what? Though?

0:03:28.000 --> 0:03:30.359
<v Speaker 1>Next week, let's ask find out about what podcasts we

0:03:30.480 --> 0:03:34.480
<v Speaker 1>will listen to. How much can you get into on

0:03:34.520 --> 0:03:38.360
<v Speaker 1>a physio podcast? How much rolfing chat or deep tissue

0:03:38.440 --> 0:03:40.280
<v Speaker 1>chat can there be on a podcast?

0:03:40.320 --> 0:03:41.960
<v Speaker 3>But isn't that the kind of guy you want being

0:03:42.000 --> 0:03:44.200
<v Speaker 3>your physio? He didn't just learn it at school.

0:03:47.040 --> 0:03:53.200
<v Speaker 1>It's constantly up taking. There's another episode here, it doesn't matter.

0:03:53.240 --> 0:03:56.000
<v Speaker 1>It happens most breaks. So it's nice for you for them.

0:03:56.080 --> 0:03:58.080
<v Speaker 1>You have one today, perhaps you can have one in

0:03:58.080 --> 0:04:00.240

0:04:53.320 --> 0:04:55.360
<v Speaker 1>Good, Welcome to the show. So how did you meet

0:04:55.400 --> 0:04:55.839
<v Speaker 1>your mate?

0:04:56.680 --> 0:05:00.440
<v Speaker 4>Well, it wasn't myself meeting my mate but ended up

0:05:00.480 --> 0:05:02.760
<v Speaker 4>being friends of the family. It was actually my father

0:05:02.920 --> 0:05:06.400
<v Speaker 4>meeting his best mate and they almost killed each other.

0:05:07.800 --> 0:05:08.320
<v Speaker 1>What do you mean.

0:05:10.200 --> 0:05:14.240
<v Speaker 4>Well, Well, before I was born and I'm nearly forty

0:05:14.279 --> 0:05:17.440
<v Speaker 4>eight now, and just before mum and dad got married,

0:05:17.800 --> 0:05:22.040
<v Speaker 4>my father was crossing a bridge in Queensland, and oncoming

0:05:22.200 --> 0:05:25.400
<v Speaker 4>was a semi trailer that ends up jackknifing and turning over,

0:05:26.080 --> 0:05:29.760
<v Speaker 4>nearly hitting my father, who swerved, and in swerving he

0:05:30.120 --> 0:05:34.080
<v Speaker 4>ended up head on in a very serious accident with

0:05:34.200 --> 0:05:37.680
<v Speaker 4>his best mate who had to pull him out as

0:05:37.680 --> 0:05:40.960
<v Speaker 4>the wreckage. They didn't know each other before then, but

0:05:41.080 --> 0:05:42.839
<v Speaker 4>have been lifelong friends ever since.

0:05:43.000 --> 0:05:47.680
<v Speaker 1>Oh, my beautiful story. Goosebumps. What an amazing story.

0:05:48.279 --> 0:05:54.560
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, yeah, so his best netmate's name is Ernie and

0:05:56.480 --> 0:06:03.200
<v Speaker 4>the way, Yeah, his old old Australian cowboy travels across

0:06:03.360 --> 0:06:07.760
<v Speaker 4>the lands and growing up as kids, his wife we

0:06:07.800 --> 0:06:10.279
<v Speaker 4>didn't and didn't know her by her name. We just

0:06:10.440 --> 0:06:12.680
<v Speaker 4>used to refer to them as Ernie and Bert. Used

0:06:12.680 --> 0:06:13.960
<v Speaker 4>to run into the house and say.

0:06:13.880 --> 0:06:14.800
<v Speaker 5>Ernie and Er.

0:06:17.680 --> 0:06:22.240
<v Speaker 4>So, yeah, they've been lifelong friends and buddies ever since.

0:06:22.480 --> 0:06:25.479
<v Speaker 1>So Ernie just does a good deed. He's obviously coming

0:06:25.520 --> 0:06:27.560
<v Speaker 1>to rescue of an accident that's happened right in front

0:06:27.560 --> 0:06:30.760
<v Speaker 1>of him. Paul's your dad out of obviously some kind

0:06:30.800 --> 0:06:34.320
<v Speaker 1>of wreckage. And they they then were not that moment,

0:06:34.800 --> 0:06:39.640
<v Speaker 1>but eventually they become friends. Just give me CPR and

0:06:39.680 --> 0:06:40.680
<v Speaker 1>then I'll get my phone out.

0:06:42.080 --> 0:06:45.280
<v Speaker 4>Well, he was, he was pretty badly injured as well, because,

0:06:45.720 --> 0:06:47.400
<v Speaker 4>like I said, they head on each other.

0:06:47.680 --> 0:06:49.640
<v Speaker 1>So I missed that bit. I was so anaya about

0:06:49.640 --> 0:06:52.080
<v Speaker 1>they become friends. It was a head on collision between

0:06:52.080 --> 0:06:54.880
<v Speaker 1>the two of them, Ernie and the old man. Yeah,

0:06:55.120 --> 0:06:59.640
<v Speaker 1>this is even more remarkable. Yeah, Ernie did almost killy

0:06:59.680 --> 0:07:00.960
<v Speaker 1>your dad. That I understand.

0:07:01.760 --> 0:07:06.440
<v Speaker 4>Yes, they practically almost killed each other. The boat cars

0:07:06.440 --> 0:07:10.080
<v Speaker 4>were right off and but yeah, Journie pulled Dad out

0:07:10.080 --> 0:07:10.720
<v Speaker 4>of the wreckage.

0:07:10.760 --> 0:07:13.320
<v Speaker 1>Isn't it amazing? What a great way once you bond

0:07:13.360 --> 0:07:15.880
<v Speaker 1>in a moment like that. Years LATERY go, hey, remember

0:07:15.920 --> 0:07:17.600
<v Speaker 1>that time? How many years ago is now where I

0:07:17.760 --> 0:07:18.080
<v Speaker 1>was killed?

0:07:18.120 --> 0:07:18.200
<v Speaker 2>You?

<v Speaker 6>like a lot of people, and about ten twelve years

0:07:40.240 --> 0:07:43.240
<v Speaker 6>ago I started to just chat to some ladies on

0:07:43.280 --> 0:07:45.400
<v Speaker 6>the train. You get to see the same people every day,

0:07:45.920 --> 0:07:49.760
<v Speaker 6>and now we're friends. So they're my eight trained friends

0:07:49.760 --> 0:07:52.280
<v Speaker 6>that I have, and we go out for dinner quite often,

0:07:52.320 --> 0:07:55.119
<v Speaker 6>and we celebrate Christmas and Easter and births and deaths

0:07:55.120 --> 0:07:59.800
<v Speaker 6>and marriages and everything. So you knowend eight Yeah, eight

<v Speaker 6>of us.

0:08:00.080 --> 0:08:03.280
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling you now right, Women meet friends so easily.

0:08:03.720 --> 0:08:05.840
<v Speaker 1>I could be on that train seeing those same if

0:08:05.880 --> 0:08:08.400
<v Speaker 1>it was men for thirty or forty years. I don't

0:08:08.440 --> 0:08:14.080
<v Speaker 1>ever say anything to any of them. We're dying as strangers.

0:08:14.320 --> 0:08:16.240

<v Speaker 1>and then somebody else joined in and overtime you all

0:08:27.360 --> 0:08:29.560
<v Speaker 1>start to form a little Yeah.

0:08:29.600 --> 0:08:32.480
<v Speaker 6>Well, they would get on the train a few stops

0:08:32.520 --> 0:08:35.320
<v Speaker 6>before me and then they we just started chatting, so

0:08:35.400 --> 0:08:38.440
<v Speaker 6>they would just start saving me a seat. So that's

0:08:38.480 --> 0:08:41.720
<v Speaker 6>how we sort of got chatting. Yeah, so it's really good,

<v Speaker 1>know Carl's show podcast, Rob.

0:08:52.440 --> 0:08:53.959
<v Speaker 2>Good morning everyone, Hell are you.

0:08:54.120 --> 0:08:56.360
<v Speaker 1>Good right, Welcome to show, Rob. So how did you

0:08:56.880 --> 0:08:57.520
<v Speaker 1>meet your friend?

0:08:58.920 --> 0:09:02.440
<v Speaker 2>About twenty years I was going to Perth and we

0:09:02.600 --> 0:09:06.560
<v Speaker 2>come across a truck accident and ended up pulling my

0:09:06.679 --> 0:09:10.360
<v Speaker 2>mate Russell out of his burning truck. He was pinned

0:09:10.400 --> 0:09:13.559
<v Speaker 2>over the steering wheel and pulled him out and had

0:09:13.600 --> 0:09:15.920
<v Speaker 2>to sit there waiting for the for the Saint John's

0:09:15.960 --> 0:09:19.360
<v Speaker 2>ambulance in him for four odd hours. And a couple

0:09:19.400 --> 0:09:22.760
<v Speaker 2>of weeks later, on our way back from Perth, went

0:09:22.800 --> 0:09:24.840
<v Speaker 2>in and saw him sitting up in a hospital bed.

0:09:24.960 --> 0:09:27.320
<v Speaker 2>I thought he was I thought he was breeding his

0:09:27.440 --> 0:09:29.480
<v Speaker 2>last breaths on the side of the road pretty much.

0:09:29.520 --> 0:09:35.040
<v Speaker 2>And yeah, so about twelve months later he and his

0:09:35.200 --> 0:09:37.720
<v Speaker 2>partner got married, so I drove her to their wedding

0:09:37.800 --> 0:09:39.760
<v Speaker 2>and they have been friends ever since.

0:09:40.559 --> 0:09:46.040
<v Speaker 5>Wow, an incredible story, it was, but it was it

0:09:46.120 --> 0:09:51.640
<v Speaker 5>was a it was an interesting, interesting morning when it happened.

0:09:51.679 --> 0:09:58.679
<v Speaker 2>And yeah, sometimes had nightmares still over it. But it's

0:09:58.679 --> 0:10:02.520
<v Speaker 2>something that's brought to people together that or a group

0:10:02.559 --> 0:10:06.640
<v Speaker 2>of us I suppose together out of adversity and they

0:10:06.640 --> 0:10:07.800
<v Speaker 2>have been friends episodes.

0:10:09.040 --> 0:10:11.840
<v Speaker 1>It's incredible. I'm sorry about the nightmare. Do you have

0:10:11.920 --> 0:10:12.720
<v Speaker 1>holt with that? Rob?

0:10:14.520 --> 0:10:16.920
<v Speaker 2>I've spoken to a few people a little bit about it.

0:10:16.960 --> 0:10:19.640
<v Speaker 2>It just yeah, occasionally you sort of have something that

0:10:19.679 --> 0:10:24.520
<v Speaker 2>triggered it, and but it's like crawling into a burning

0:10:24.520 --> 0:10:26.280
<v Speaker 2>truck in the middle of it, in the middle of

0:10:26.280 --> 0:10:30.520
<v Speaker 2>anotherbor is not something you want to do every day.

0:10:30.600 --> 0:10:33.920
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, d you say to guy's life, you gave

0:10:34.000 --> 0:10:36.280
<v Speaker 1>him his life and doing that, it's incredible act of

0:10:36.400 --> 0:10:37.479
<v Speaker 1>self discourage.

0:10:38.320 --> 0:10:40.480
<v Speaker 2>Like it's one of those things like you see on

0:10:40.960 --> 0:10:44.240
<v Speaker 2>some of the shows on TV, like where they're in

0:10:44.280 --> 0:10:46.439
<v Speaker 2>the in the city where you've got all the ambulance

0:10:46.520 --> 0:10:49.079
<v Speaker 2>and paramedics and all that sort of thing there with

0:10:49.120 --> 0:10:52.200
<v Speaker 2>the fieries, and that I did the same sort of

0:10:52.240 --> 0:10:57.400
<v Speaker 2>thing where I was hours from any sort of help.

0:10:57.480 --> 0:11:01.679
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, yeah, I think you said you don't have

0:11:01.760 --> 0:11:04.280
<v Speaker 1>to wait for like six six hours or something happened to.

0:11:05.200 --> 0:11:07.600
<v Speaker 2>The accident happened about eight o'clock in the morning, and

0:11:08.240 --> 0:11:12.680
<v Speaker 2>the St. John's ambulance turned up about midday, and yeah,

0:11:12.720 --> 0:11:14.920
<v Speaker 2>there was a there was a story behind that as well.

0:11:15.000 --> 0:11:18.400
<v Speaker 2>The ambulance broke down on its way back to the

0:11:18.880 --> 0:11:21.440
<v Speaker 2>to Sguina Hospital and that sort of thing. I found

0:11:21.440 --> 0:11:25.160
<v Speaker 2>out later on, And there's there's quite a few things.

0:11:25.200 --> 0:11:27.320
<v Speaker 2>It was a bit of a comedy of errors with

0:11:27.480 --> 0:11:32.640
<v Speaker 2>the ambulance side of things, and.

0:11:31.720 --> 0:11:35.079
<v Speaker 1>You get the right to call it a comedy of errors.

0:11:33.760 --> 0:11:36.319
<v Speaker 2>I don't think.

0:11:36.280 --> 0:11:38.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm not on the back of a stretcher. This is

0:11:38.920 --> 0:11:39.840
<v Speaker 1>the thing.

0:11:39.920 --> 0:11:42.080
<v Speaker 3>This is the next one feral movie.

0:11:42.520 --> 0:11:45.360
<v Speaker 2>They sent two ambulances out and both of them broke down.

0:11:46.559 --> 0:11:50.640
<v Speaker 2>Getting from Siguina to Nullibor where the accident happened, and

0:11:50.920 --> 0:11:53.880
<v Speaker 2>back to it. He actually ended up being transferred from

0:11:54.360 --> 0:11:56.560
<v Speaker 2>one ambulance back into the other one, and then back

0:11:56.600 --> 0:11:59.560
<v Speaker 2>into the other one again as each of them broke down.

0:12:01.440 --> 0:12:03.080
<v Speaker 1>A barely believable story.

0:12:04.240 --> 0:12:06.760
<v Speaker 2>Put it this way. When I heard that, I just

0:12:06.760 --> 0:12:09.000
<v Speaker 2>thought I had got to be kidding, like I would

0:12:09.000 --> 0:12:11.599
<v Speaker 2>have like when it actually happened. I was expecting the

0:12:12.480 --> 0:12:14.959
<v Speaker 2>Flying Doctor Service to turn up because we're un a

0:12:15.000 --> 0:12:16.319
<v Speaker 2>nullable highway.

0:12:16.400 --> 0:12:18.000
<v Speaker 1>But well, they may have tried to fly that. And

0:12:18.160 --> 0:12:20.600
<v Speaker 1>who knows what that broke down. I mean, I don't know.

0:12:20.800 --> 0:12:21.840
<v Speaker 1>We can't rule it out.

0:12:23.720 --> 0:12:25.400
<v Speaker 2>They ran out of fuel and got stuck up there.

0:12:29.160 --> 0:12:31.800
<v Speaker 1>Rob. I still think it's an amazing thing you did.

0:12:32.080 --> 0:12:33.640
<v Speaker 1>We never know. We always like to think you do

0:12:33.760 --> 0:12:35.840
<v Speaker 1>some of that, but we can never know until you

0:12:35.840 --> 0:12:37.400
<v Speaker 1>really tested at a moment like that, but it's an

0:12:37.400 --> 0:12:39.880
<v Speaker 1>incredible thing you did. You're right as well, but thank

0:12:39.920 --> 0:12:42.280
<v Speaker 1>you for sharing your story with us this morning.

0:12:42.360 --> 0:12:45.880
