Speaker 2: But Christian connall's show podcast.
Speaker 5: Christian O'Connell's show. This coming Monday, it's my daughter's last exam.
Speaker 1: She year twelve. She's in the exam. So I'm now
Speaker 1: doing all the vcs.
Speaker 5: This Monday it was psychology, and so over the last
Speaker 5: couple of weeks I'm doing a lot of the flash
Speaker 5: card revision. There are no physical flash cards now, it's
Speaker 5: a laptop. You click it one way, if they know it,
Speaker 5: you click it another way, and it goes into the
Speaker 5: stool to learn. At the end, you get a percentage
Speaker 5: yesterday one hundred and seventeen of these flashcards.
Speaker 4: Wow, yes, yeah, yeah, Hey, you're just clicking a button
Speaker 4: left or right, she's the one who has to know Jack.
Speaker 1: It's it's law, it's legal. Some of these words.
Speaker 5: I was like stumbling and mumbling precedents, precedents, upper house,
Speaker 5: lower house, it's legal stuff.
Speaker 1: Right, It's so out of my wheelhouse.
Speaker 5: So the last two exams, I've been doing the bulk
Speaker 5: of the flash cards right English, and then we got
Speaker 5: into psychology. Okay, And now now i've sadly yesterday I've
Speaker 5: been I was just say, it's actually brutal. What happened
Speaker 5: yesterday happen in America. I've been benched, sad it's the
Speaker 5: rise of She's back again. Sarah's back is doing legal now.
Speaker 5: Because for me, I don't get too caught up whether.
Speaker 1: Everything Lois is saying is one hundred percent. I'm seeing
Speaker 1: the answers.
Speaker 5: I think if it's above a threshold of seventy percent,
Speaker 5: this is good enough for an eight. All right, okay,
Speaker 5: so I go, yeah, move on. It's like a game
Speaker 5: show to me that running out time next, because I'm
Speaker 5: thinking one hundred and thirteen of these, if each one
Speaker 5: is going to take a minute, I'm here two hours.
Speaker 5: So we're going to pick up the pace a bit.
Speaker 4: But with legal and contracts. There's so much wiggle room
Speaker 4: in there, trying to make them a.
Speaker 1: One thing we can all agree about. Law, it's mainly
Speaker 1: gray area.
Speaker 5: Nothing is written down, nothing has to be exactly the
Speaker 5: letter of the law. In fact, that's not even a phrase.
Speaker 5: Is that the letter of the law. So yesterday we
Speaker 5: go through a lot of some'm like yeah, you know,
Speaker 5: moving on to next one, and then my wife comes back.
Speaker 5: She goes, oh my god, Love, I'm so sorry. I
Speaker 5: wasn't here to do flash cards? Did your dad have
Speaker 5: to do it? And I'm by the way I said,
Speaker 5: I am here. I'm next to Lois. I can hear
Speaker 5: all of this, and Lois goes, Mum, you to step in.

Speaker 3: that you can help me with it. I was parked
Speaker 3: parallel yesterday doing some errands and I did not feed
Speaker 3: the meter because I was ducking into the shop, which
Speaker 3: I parked right out in front of. And I thought,
Speaker 3: you know what, of.
Speaker 1: Course, just if you're new to the show, when Patsy
Speaker 1: says running.
Speaker 5: Errands that were parked outside the shop, yeah, shotgun on
Speaker 5: the laft.
Speaker 1: Case in case the police show up, still smoking from
Speaker 1: a previous hit. But yeah, okay, doing some errands and.
Speaker 3: I thought, you know what, I'm not going to feed
Speaker 3: the meter. I'm literally going to be two minutes. So
Speaker 3: when I got back in the car, I was checking
Speaker 3: my phone and I saw the Gray Ghost, the parking inspector.
Speaker 3: They call them the gray Ghost. Yeah, because their uniforms.
Speaker 1: Great, you haven't heard of it.
Speaker 7: I've never heard of it.
Speaker 5: But it's a lot of this right, just sort of
Speaker 5: impress me. And that's what you don't know about this
Speaker 5: strange because you're fauner.
Speaker 1: But here in our land we call them the great ghosts.
Speaker 1: And I look around the team and everyone else is like,
Speaker 1: du no idea, the great.
Speaker 4: Ghost Oh, yes, they're the great I thought they wore
Speaker 4: high veers.
Speaker 1: Do they?
Speaker 3: Maybe they've changed out my way there they're a gray uniform.
Speaker 3: We call them the gray ghosts. Anyway, I could see
Speaker 3: him walking and I thought, oh, I don't have any change.
Speaker 3: I couldn't be bother getting out and feeding the.
Speaker 1: Spirit, isn't it? If any way, we could all be
Speaker 1: like that.
Speaker 5: Evidences can't park anywhere ewhereancys or lorries can't do their
Speaker 5: essential business.
Speaker 3: But I was wondering, can they book you if you're
Speaker 3: sitting in the car if you haven't if you if
Speaker 3: you haven't feed your meal?
Speaker 1: I would guess yes.
Speaker 4: Confrontational though you have to look them in the and
Speaker 4: then you'll be knocking on the windscreen going hello, I'm right, yeah.
Speaker 5: You think anyone's really played that all the way through,
Speaker 5: even if their car is getting winched up until it
Speaker 5: away they're in the back like I'm not moving, Then
Speaker 5: you're coming for a ride or the back.
Speaker 3: But I'm just what I guess they can because it's
Speaker 3: you have infringement. Yeah, you haven't fed your meter anyway.
Speaker 3: So I got scared and I drove off.
Speaker 1: I think you have what It was still filling in
Speaker 1: the admin.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, he wasn't about to book me, but
Speaker 3: I could see him. It was like three cars away,
Speaker 3: and I thought, I either have to get out and
Speaker 3: pay the meter.
Speaker 4: I want you to stay just for the curiosity of
Speaker 4: the question of us. Would you have booked you if
Speaker 4: you were sitting there in the front seat.
Speaker 5: Well, let's find out that must have happened to Peo.
Speaker 5: But nine four one four one oh four three you
Speaker 5: ever seen the Greek.

Speaker 5: of parking attendance as Greg ghosts corner, Patsy, you all
Speaker 5: call them grey ghosts. Patsy was in the car yesterday
Speaker 5: and wants to know. Then, Patsy, the question today about
Speaker 5: your parking concern.
Speaker 3: Is can you be booked for a parking infringement if
Speaker 3: you're sitting in the car but haven't fed you meter
Speaker 3: or it's run out.
Speaker 1: Christian Gello.
Speaker 5: This my wife got but while sitting in the car
Speaker 5: breastfeeding our daughter, the meter ran out. That pretty average
Speaker 5: from the ticket inspector. Also never ever heard of them referred.
Speaker 1: To as great This is news to me, Christian news
Speaker 1: to me.
Speaker 4: Now, I never got Remember I tried to appeal one
Speaker 4: that I got for having the flat tire.
Speaker 1: What happened? What did he get back to you?
Speaker 8: Now?
Speaker 4: They got back to me.
Speaker 1: I just said no.
Speaker 4: They said no, we've seen no evidence that you had
Speaker 4: a flat tire. And then I sent them like, we're
Speaker 4: taking it to the mechanics and the replacement, and then
Speaker 4: they're like nah, and then they get to write like
Speaker 4: and we feel there's no further that needs to be
Speaker 4: had on this matter.
Speaker 1: Chris is on the line. Good morning, Chris, Good morning.
Speaker 1: So Chris. First of all, then you ever heard them
Speaker 1: called great ghosts? Yeah?
Speaker 9: Absolutely, Yeah, that's a pretty common one. Sorry, sorry to
Speaker 9: dampen you there, but yeah, that's that. They've always been
Speaker 9: known as the gray ghosts or gotta ghosts or whatever
Speaker 9: because they seem to be able to just pop up
Speaker 9: and then disappear. You'll get a ticket without even noticing
Speaker 9: it and then you look around and there's nobody.
Speaker 5: All right, so and hearing about what's your take on
Speaker 5: what's happened to Patsy then in a question about can
Speaker 5: you be find in the car?
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 9: So there was some policy changes a while ago. Down
Speaker 9: on Tuak Road, I think it would have been Donnington
Speaker 9: in Melbourne. There was, unfortunately a fellow that had passed
Speaker 9: away in the driver's seat of his car. He obviously
Speaker 9: parked up and then maybe felt unwell or whatever and
Speaker 9: had a snooze and didn't didn't wake up, and he
Speaker 9: got a ticket put on his car while he was
Speaker 9: in the seat, obviously deceased, and that came under investigation
Speaker 9: later and they had to make.
Speaker 1: Some fine because he could have been there.
Speaker 5: He's still you're going to do a chat in the
Speaker 5: big house.
Speaker 1: This guy, he's been parts of it for years.
Speaker 9: So I think they I think I had to make
Speaker 9: some policy changes for that.
Speaker 1: People.
Speaker 9: I've had the experience I've been parked sitting in my
Speaker 9: car a little over the time of the spot and
Speaker 9: the guy has actually come up and knocked on the
Speaker 9: window and said you have to move. And I was
Speaker 9: eating my lunch at the time, and I said I'll
Speaker 9: just finish my lunch and he said, no, you have
Speaker 9: to move now. I'm booking you so.
Speaker 1: Picnic at the moment. Haven't got to my means having
Speaker 1: you open this? Why how dag Greg goes? Has I
Speaker 1: caught you?
Speaker 3: At least you gave me the chance to move and
Speaker 3: didn't just like instantly find you a guess?
Speaker 9: No, that's right, No, that's it's a look, it's not
Speaker 9: a not a bad system. They up a bit of
Speaker 9: an unfair wrap. I think a lot of the phrase

Speaker 1: good day.

Speaker 10: and getting to bed earlier.
Speaker 5: The kids are putting you to bed. I know, they're
Speaker 5: going dan to light where they thinking dance a light
Speaker 5: way at seven o'clock, you see, alcoholic.
Speaker 7: That's what some of the people on the Sholves would do.
Speaker 7: They've got to bed seven or eight o'clock at there.
Speaker 10: I said, what's it's only when you start to get
Speaker 10: a bit of time then before the kids to bed,
Speaker 10: and you get to sit down and watch a box
Speaker 10: set or whatever the hell you set?
Speaker 1: What you've got? DVD? Exactly? TV series you're gonna watch? Where?
Speaker 1: Just watch a DVD or police academy.

Speaker 10: No, I mean we built a house in over the
Speaker 10: last five years.
Speaker 1: When you say weed, do you mean obviously got people
Speaker 1: into do well. Yeah, but you know we got ripped
Speaker 1: off by dodgy builders. Yeah, we got ripped off.
Speaker 5: In this country. There's a bad reputation about some Irish
Speaker 5: builder as well. The Irish builders didn't rip you up.
Speaker 10: There was English and Irish involved and they ripped us off.
Speaker 1: And the hell rips of ronan key we call a
Speaker 1: pop star attacks. Honestly, I was talking to Ed Sheer
Speaker 1: and he got shafted as well. Right, there's got some
Speaker 1: dodgy guttering or drive.
Speaker 7: It was a little bit more than that.
Speaker 10: But my wife ended up taking on the job of
Speaker 10: construction company, set up a construction company.
Speaker 1: She became the architect, she became everything. She did the
Speaker 1: whole job. And I was on site. I'd come home
Speaker 1: from magic breakfast and you will barrow put on the
Speaker 1: clothes and there I've been, you know, the drilling me.
Speaker 7: Hand or whatever. Baptism afar.
Speaker 10: I remember there was lads putting plaster board up and
Speaker 10: and I came in and says, what can I do?
Speaker 10: When he says, oh, you wouldn't at that plaster boarder,
Speaker 10: I didn't have a cut plaster board.
Speaker 7: So I went outside. YouTube how you.
Speaker 1: Figured that outstart.
Speaker 5: Of putting up the blaster board and bringing it in
Speaker 5: great So I didn't know you had a trade pass.
Speaker 7: No I didn't.
Speaker 1: I was.
Speaker 7: I worked in a shoe shop before. Boys on.
Speaker 5: Is it crazy? So you go into that bad at sixteen?
Speaker 5: You know, now you're a dad and you see what
Speaker 5: sixteen is like. You're still a young kid.
Speaker 10: Yeah, my eldest boy is twenty five, so it's mad.
Speaker 10: By the time I was twenty five, I had left
Speaker 10: boys on and I had had him my boy, and
Speaker 10: it gets crazy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean life's.
Speaker 10: It's thirty years, Christian, thirty thirty one years now since
Speaker 10: I joined them.
Speaker 5: But how do you look back on that period of
Speaker 5: with life now? Can you see it differently? Do you
Speaker 5: appreciate it in a different way? Because I think you
Speaker 5: guys were so famous, like Megastar's famous.
Speaker 7: Well, to be honest with you, it feels like a
Speaker 7: different person. I don't, you know.
Speaker 10: I look at it and I think I'm looking at
Speaker 10: somebody else's life.
Speaker 7: We don't.
Speaker 10: I was just talking to someone about it yesterday. Bless
Speaker 10: him that the awful news. Youngly in pain on what happened.
Speaker 10: You know, I think that the record industry has a
Speaker 10: lot to answer for with the way that artists are
Speaker 10: protected as such, especially at such a young age. He
Speaker 10: was sixteen, I believe when he when he drew in
Speaker 10: one direction. You know, we didn't get any training. There's
Speaker 10: no media training. Nobody comes and tells you how to
Speaker 10: do an interview or or what to say or you know,
Speaker 10: how you should say something or whatever.
Speaker 7: Whatever.
Speaker 10: You know, there's nothing there, And I think they need
Speaker 10: to be protected like when you do The Voice or
Speaker 10: you do X Factor, any of these shows, we have
Speaker 10: basically psychologists.
Speaker 7: Who are there on hand to help need that. Yeah
Speaker 7: they do, you know, they get the chair.
Speaker 10: Doesn't turn, or you know, they get told that it
Speaker 10: wasn't a great performance or whatever. You know, they devastated,
Speaker 10: so you need somebody to help them down easy, you know.
Speaker 1: And none of that was.
Speaker 10: There for supply for boys on when we were sixteen
Speaker 10: and sometimes as god.
Speaker 7: Knows how scared I am now, I don't know, but
Speaker 7: I'm look.
Speaker 10: I try to keep me feet in the ground and
Speaker 10: realize that I don't believe the hype too much. People
Speaker 10: need to be protected more in this in this bloody
Speaker 10: famous world or whatever that means.
Speaker 1: And you know, because the pressures there now way more
Speaker 1: than ever before. Yeah scary, I mean social media skilled.
Speaker 1: Do you want to be in a boy band now?
Speaker 1: I don't think I would, to be honest with you,
Speaker 1: rather be a carpenter. Yeah, I think I run that
Speaker 1: pass the board.
Speaker 7: Yeah yeah, I think what's a good better at us?
Speaker 5: This is a guy who sold about fifty millions what
Speaker 5: any former middle aged boy band?
Speaker 7: Perfect?
Speaker 10: Well, Actually I was talking to Gary Barlow he's in
Speaker 10: Australia at the moment.
Speaker 11: That's right.
Speaker 10: You take that boys out here and I was seeing
Speaker 10: them tomorrow and I I think we have we've kind
Speaker 10: of well we've lived a very similar life, but both
Speaker 10: of us I'm at a very similar stage in our
Speaker 10: lives now.
Speaker 7: Yeah, maybe we will start a band.
Speaker 1: The tour us.
Speaker 7: We've been talking about doing something together.
Speaker 5: So maybe that's what you do do you know what
Speaker 5: is time for a middle aged old boy band? There
Speaker 5: you go, Yeah, oursel tours, you just do afternoon shows.
Speaker 1: Come on, we can sell a little bit more than ours, please, Kristen,
Speaker 1: my god, this space that I said, I know what

Speaker 10: Then you go to the MCG now and now I.

Speaker 1: Now tell us what Oaks day you're looking forward to performing? Yes?
Speaker 10: Yes, performing today? And I've been at Melbourne all week obviously.
Speaker 10: I performed on Tuesday at Melbourne Cup with Ricky Lee
Speaker 10: one hundred thousand people. The reception was phenomenal, it was
Speaker 10: really it was incredible. I kind of put out the
Speaker 10: mic at the end of one of the songs and
Speaker 10: they sang the line back to me and it was
Speaker 10: just this wall of voices. It was so powerful. It
Speaker 10: was really special. So you're very much looking forward to

Speaker 7: It's like a smile on your face.
Speaker 1: You know how to smile. No, I know that I didn't.
Speaker 1: I didn't smile. So last forty six, thank you very
Speaker 1: much for coming in.
Speaker 2: The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 5: Christian O'Connell's show. Come on in to Darren Christian. You
Speaker 5: have to be of a certain age to remember when
Speaker 5: the term gray ghost was the rage. I hear you
Speaker 5: Darren okay, the old lady of radio, grand old dame,
Speaker 5: shall we say Darren okay?
Speaker 6: Oh?
Speaker 1: Is that what used to call it back in the day?
Speaker 4: Pertly, I had one caller who said they used to
Speaker 4: drive around in mini mookes.
Speaker 3: Oh, I don't remember. Well, that's way before my time.
Speaker 1: That would be the sixties on nothing was before your time.
Speaker 3: Were living in we were living in the sea along conversations.
Speaker 1: She broke the news about the Big Bang. That's when
Speaker 1: the world heard about it. The big has happened.
Speaker 5: That will no celebrating if anything, letting you gloat, letting
Speaker 5: you glow. Now one the team, I like to think,
Speaker 5: on this team, we have a policy where if anyone
Speaker 5: is ever upset anything on the show or doo with
Speaker 5: how we run the team, or the atmosphere here or
Speaker 5: the culture here, they must be able to come forward
Speaker 5: and use these really these microphones that we are we
Speaker 5: we don't own these microphones.
Speaker 1: We're lucky to have them.
Speaker 5: And sadly, before today's show, I came in Jack and
Speaker 5: you weren't hearing a beloved team that came to me
Speaker 5: in a state of what I can only describe emotional distress.
Speaker 4: I hate to hear that I was Oh my.
Speaker 5: God, well I've invited that person to bravely step forward
Speaker 5: today and add some words about what has happened here.
Speaker 1: What is it?
Speaker 6: Well, I'm sorry, Patsy asked earlier if I was a
Speaker 6: bit off, And yeah, I'm a bit off today because
Speaker 6: I feel it's easy to be betrayed by your enemies
Speaker 6: you expected. But what hurts the most is when you're
Speaker 6: stabbed in the back.
Speaker 1: If it's me, can I just say sorry right now?
Speaker 4: Apology? Accept it?
Speaker 1: But it's not you?
Speaker 6: What someone I really look up to, someone you know,
Speaker 6: I see like a big brother on the show.
Speaker 1: You right, Jack, Dusty, Let's cut to it now. He's
Speaker 1: waking up. Now he knows what you've done.
Speaker 4: What what is it?
Speaker 8: You know?
Speaker 1: How can you look us in the eye?
Speaker 4: I honestly, wow, I feel I've done nothing wrong, and
Speaker 4: that will be most likely my position about a month
Speaker 4: ago I brought to you.
Speaker 6: You know, every time I says I work really hard.
Speaker 1: On them as well, and thank you for that as well.
Speaker 1: Thank you.
Speaker 6: I appreciate that I spend a lot of time trying
Speaker 6: to find great fact to intrigue.
Speaker 4: But an you're talking about when we do the time
Speaker 4: where it's like kitchen movies and you're like, oh, what's
Speaker 4: Australia's favorite kitchen instrument.
Speaker 5: He had a great one Friday with the horses. Horses
Speaker 5: Can't Get Lost came.
Speaker 4: From Actually I've already retold that to people over the weekend.
Speaker 1: It's kind of a similar theme.
Speaker 6: Because I had there was a great one I found
Speaker 6: about geography songs exactly a month ago, and Christian, I
Speaker 6: think you have the audio.
Speaker 1: Wind the team. There's a point in this.
Speaker 5: How specific closer to the people on the International Space
Speaker 5: Station than you are to any other human being? Good?
Speaker 4: That's very good.
Speaker 5: See how animate is you now know? Guilty man has
Speaker 5: no d what? He laughs real loud?
Speaker 4: But what do what is this show for but to
Speaker 4: learn things and then to take them out into credited,
Speaker 4: to take them out into the world.
Speaker 1: Two words double dipping. Carry on with this heartbreaking story
Speaker 1: of deception.
Speaker 6: Then I'm listening to Hamish, a great podcast again, listening
Speaker 6: to my mentor Jack.
Speaker 1: You're learning, you're learning your pause ever listened to this?
Speaker 4: You know what's crazy? I actually have a better fact
Speaker 4: about the International Space Station.
Speaker 9: Jack.
Speaker 4: It wasn't even my factor today, but if you're standing
Speaker 4: on this island in the middle of the specific ocean,
Speaker 4: so it's Easter Island or something, you are closer to
Speaker 4: the humans on the International Space Station than you are
Speaker 4: to any other humans on Earth.
Speaker 1: That is a good fact.
Speaker 5: Now, obviously suspicions must and raced you the high quality
Speaker 5: of this because they can't move on.
Speaker 1: Did you get that fact again from Jack? And here's
Speaker 1: it when.
Speaker 5: Someone offers you that that's a chance to credit the
Speaker 5: other paymaster you have.
Speaker 4: I don't remember that part.
Speaker 1: Okay, let's rewind from the hamers Nati podcast. Did you
Speaker 1: get that fact again from Jack? Someone on your radio
Speaker 1: show said it.
Speaker 4: I can't even remember where I heard that. No, but
Speaker 4: it wasn't from the radio show.
Speaker 1: It wasn't.
Speaker 4: It's just in the back of my brain somewhere. That
Speaker 4: is bad manners, thank you.
Speaker 1: That is bad. Yeah, you say bad matters. That is
Speaker 1: something else. Went from the genemic title the radio show.
Speaker 4: I think you got to when you do the radio
Speaker 4: show and the podcast, like on the same day. So
Speaker 4: much is happening, It's moving so fast.
Speaker 1: You a conflicted man.
Speaker 4: The brain is blurry. Where's things coming from? Who said what?
Speaker 4: Who said? Which show? Am I on you forget I.
Speaker 2: Want to get that fact again from Jack.
Speaker 1: Someone on your radio show said it.
Speaker 4: I can't even remember where I heard that. No, but
Speaker 4: it wasn't from the radio show. It's just deep in
Speaker 4: the back of my brain.
Speaker 1: I didn't even know that second bit.
Speaker 5: I had the first part definitely not from the radio
Speaker 5: show deep in his brain.
Speaker 4: Well, it's a credit to Rio, then I think you.
Speaker 1: Credit radio show.
Speaker 4: The fact was so strong that it went straight to
Speaker 4: the back of my brain and set up camp there
Speaker 4: as if it was a factor.
Speaker 1: Were rting credit free. Well, I'm sorry you had to
Speaker 1: hear all.
Speaker 4: This has been healing.
Speaker 1: Some ears could never heal.

Speaker 5: laugh at samurais from the twenty second of October twenty
Speaker 5: twenty four. I've attached the moment Pat said it. I'm
Speaker 5: sure the phrase Pat's meant to say was not bat
Speaker 5: an eyelid, but she said batter an eyelid. But then
Speaker 5: when it comes to Patsy, who knows she's probably batted
Speaker 5: many an elid to get to red carpet event.
Speaker 3: I do it all the time. This is nothing you
Speaker 3: I always miss up.
Speaker 1: Saying to whatever ones. But this is. This is a
Speaker 1: great spot by Paul.

Speaker 3: It was absolutely you wouldn't better an eyelid.
Speaker 5: This is some Kyle Christian Jack and bats in my
Speaker 5: house and well known for getting sayings wrong and send
Speaker 5: them back to front. There are two sayings in particular
Speaker 5: I can never get right. First one is mutton dressed

Speaker 5: I prefer Mutton trested's ham instead of the commonly used
Speaker 5: Mutton Trestor's lamb. It just doesn't come out right. Then
Speaker 5: one other one I get is the white elephant in
Speaker 5: the room. I never realized I was combining two different
Speaker 5: saying white elephant and the elephant in the room until
Speaker 5: my husband just snapped one day and.
Speaker 4: Went enough an individual.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Christian, I have two for me. This comes from
Speaker 5: Shari and Berrick. I say they treated me like the
Speaker 5: escapegoat instead of scapegoats the escaping goat, and I often
Speaker 5: say I knew it right from the gecko.
Speaker 1: Put them right from the get go.
Speaker 5: Many years ago, we used to work with the bloke
Speaker 5: in the office who used to say two ones. It's
Speaker 5: the squeaky will that makes the most noise instead of
Speaker 5: the squeaky will gets to grease. Another one that used
Speaker 5: to say a lot was for all intensive purposes instead
Speaker 5: of for all intents and purposes.
Speaker 1: That comes from Greg.

Speaker 2: The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 5: Christian, we have a mulbed tree on our nature street.
Speaker 5: A couple of weeks ago, I picked a bucket of
Speaker 5: the berries. This tree is at the costco of Mulberry's.
Speaker 5: It's still heaps. I noticed our posty also out some
Speaker 5: sounds to them and delivery drivers. So have you got
Speaker 5: a mulberry bush then?
Speaker 1: Now?
Speaker 4: No, we have neighbors who have a mulby tree, and
Speaker 4: that I would agree with that. There are so many
Speaker 4: it feels unlimited, and we've been picking them every day.
Speaker 1: Do you like the taste? I love underrated more than
Speaker 1: a raspberry or strawberry, even a blueberry.
Speaker 4: You know why mulberry's aren't in our supermarkets is just
Speaker 4: because they don't travel as well as a raspberry or
Speaker 4: a BlackBerry, not because people don't like the taste.
Speaker 5: I originally thought they were legal in this country. There
Speaker 5: are some plants that are illegal here because they're bad
Speaker 5: for the ecosystem. I'm not sure if the mulberry falls
Speaker 5: under that real Could you have a loo cong gooogle?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 4: So is it mulberry native or not?
Speaker 1: I don't know. I'm pretty sure it's a pommey tree.
Speaker 4: It sounds like a pomy tree.
Speaker 5: I remember there's some old sort of in a nursing
Speaker 5: rhyme we used to sing around spring, Here we go
Speaker 5: around the mulberry bush.
Speaker 1: The mulberry bush, the mulberry bush, here we go.
Speaker 5: I think it is to do with symbolism, to do
Speaker 5: with renewal and cosmic order.
Speaker 4: Maybe they just mulberry's could be that as well.
Speaker 5: I also seem to be someone who was forced to
Speaker 5: go to a Catholic school when I was a kid.
Speaker 5: I think it's one of the few bushes that are
Speaker 5: mentioned or trees that mentioned the Bible, along with myrtle,
Speaker 5: and I think mulberry for some reason is mentioned in
Speaker 5: the Bible as well.
Speaker 1: You tried the mulberry's bats.
Speaker 3: I don't reckon. I've tried the mulberry. Are they quite
Speaker 3: sort of precious?
Speaker 4: Are they easy? They can't have them in super supermarkets
Speaker 4: because they won't travel that. Blackberries they can actually pick
Speaker 4: before they ripe, put them in the punnets, and then
Speaker 4: they're ripen over the next couple of days.
Speaker 5: Isn't that appeasing word to say punnet delicious punnets of fruit?
Speaker 4: Mulberries won't, and mulberry is not technically a berry more
Speaker 4: closely related to a fig, even though it looks so
Speaker 4: much like a BlackBerry.
Speaker 5: I wish I had a neighbor who had a fig
Speaker 5: tree that I could pick friggin cheese pants.
Speaker 4: Right, guys, we have a fig tree, but the possums
Speaker 4: eat the figs. We need it before the now you
Speaker 4: got to you have to get some sort of special net.
Speaker 4: And I don't know much about special Yeah. The guy
Speaker 4: we got the house from, he said, like a big
Speaker 4: hannaut for the tree. Yes, he actually put the hairnaut
Speaker 4: on the tree. He's like, I'll put before we leave.
Speaker 1: A tree condom to guarantee it safety.
Speaker 4: And then the possums got through the net. They got
Speaker 4: up under the net and haven't bothered to put another
Speaker 4: net on because I don't need a load of figs.
Speaker 5: Oh, it's a delicacy that we can with some cheese
Speaker 5: or reverdy expensive.
Speaker 3: Your lemons though, like I just can't rave enough about Jackson.
Speaker 5: You got massive. So it's the Mawi bush in your
Speaker 5: golden or is that neighbors?
Speaker 4: Did you say two doors down at the front of the.
Speaker 1: Guard and they don't mind you picking them?
Speaker 4: Well, it sort of leans over the front fence.
Speaker 3: Oh well then it's yours free game.
Speaker 4: Yeah, don't you think?
Speaker 3: Absolutely it is.
Speaker 1: I'm pretty much on the b to see, like, hey,
Speaker 1: do you mind if we have a couple of those?
Speaker 4: We didn't ask? And actually yesterday we went in because
Speaker 4: Gordy gets on my shoulders to pick the ones up higher.
Speaker 1: Oh that's so cute.
Speaker 4: Yesterday we went inside the fence line.
Speaker 1: Because that's actually trespassing.
Speaker 4: Because a lot of the ones on the outside have
Speaker 4: been eaten.
Speaker 1: So you are you now leaning over?
Speaker 4: Have we actually went inside the gate.
Speaker 12: Gate?
Speaker 4: This is so brazen and open gate is an open invitation?
Speaker 5: I think, Oh no, now I remember that time. Do
Speaker 5: you remember when you brought an illegal swipe card cloner
Speaker 5: so you could break into Rio's apartment or friend's apartment
Speaker 5: and use the pall there without.
Speaker 4: Them knowing yes, it didn't work, but that was my idea.
