I couldn't be bothered to anything more than 0:01:12.400 --> 0:01:15.080 just a lonely old soup. Sat down with a soup 0:01:15.120 --> 0:01:17.440 with saying bread to dunk in it by myself, like 0:01:17.480 --> 0:01:22.760 an old retiree, echoing around the house.

Yesterday I suddenly start seeing a lot of 0:02:03.560 --> 0:02:07.080 activity on the credit card right, and so I freaked 0:02:07.080 --> 0:02:09.440 them out because nowadays, when you do online banking, it 0:02:09.440 --> 0:02:11.800 would let you know where it is, what time, exactly 0:02:11.800 --> 0:02:14.960 where in the world and what was purchased. So suddenly 0:02:14.960 --> 0:02:17.400 I freaked out my teenage daughter and went, do you 0:02:17.480 --> 0:02:22.600 really need those cuffed cargo pants?

England were a bit more. 0:04:10.880 --> 0:04:13.120 And also I'm not the world's biggest cricket fan. It 0:04:13.240 --> 0:04:15.080 is a born old game to watch if you're not 0:04:15.080 --> 0:04:17.080 a fan, it really is. So in the Inda flicked 0:04:17.120 --> 0:04:21.200 over to watched Bob Murphy's interview with Roughie Roughhead. Very 0:04:21.200 --> 0:04:24.240 good however, right I texted Bob going, why are you 0:04:24.279 --> 0:04:28.039 both in heavy sheepskin jackets? Does the budget on Foxtown 0:04:28.120 --> 0:04:30.760 not extend to heating when you're filming the show? But 0:04:30.800 --> 0:04:32.200 it was. It was a great chat with him. It's 0:04:32.279 --> 0:04:35.760 very very good. But yeah, well done to Australia. I 0:04:35.760 --> 0:04:37.360 don't want to sound bitter here, but it was more 0:04:37.400 --> 0:04:42.440 like England lost more than Australia one. Any well done? 0:04:43.440 --> 0:04:44.240 That hurt to say. 0:04:44.400 --> 0:04:48.280 The Christian O'Connell breakfast Show Melbourne's Gold one oh four point. 0:04:48.080 --> 0:04:52.320 Three yesterday, whilst I was watching the start of the 0:04:52.320 --> 0:04:58.560 cricket Live from Lord's, I saw on social media on 0:04:58.600 --> 0:05:03.440 Twitter as a post from a rival radio station Triple M, 0:05:03.720 --> 0:05:05.080 you know, and I follow them. I like to see 0:05:05.120 --> 0:05:06.800 what's going on and also some of their posts just 0:05:06.960 --> 0:05:09.760 they just make me feel good. They make me laugh 0:05:10.080 --> 0:05:13.880 because there's often a video of Eddie McGuire and the 0:05:13.960 --> 0:05:16.960 one that they posted yesterday was another one that made 0:05:17.000 --> 0:05:18.560 me laugh and I'm not sure it was designed to 0:05:18.600 --> 0:05:21.920 make me laugh. This was a post Eddie McGuire live 0:05:22.040 --> 0:05:25.000 from Lords. Now. Obviously, whether you're not you've been to 0:05:25.000 --> 0:05:27.680 a One Day International or cricket game, but if you're 0:05:27.680 --> 0:05:31.320 talking about it's the mcg or Lords. There is a 0:05:31.400 --> 0:05:34.000 very strict code of conduct, you know when I've been 0:05:34.000 --> 0:05:35.479 to Lords and that you know you have to dress 0:05:35.520 --> 0:05:37.440 the right way. You can't go into certain areas if 0:05:37.440 --> 0:05:39.960 you're not dressed the right way. And there's an etiquette 0:05:39.960 --> 0:05:42.400 at cricket. You know, the rules of cricket are one 0:05:42.440 --> 0:05:44.760 of the oldest rules I've written down with Wisdom's Almanaut. 0:05:44.760 --> 0:05:47.560 They date back to the eighteen hundreds. I don't think 0:05:47.640 --> 0:05:50.479 this is the right way to behave at Lord's. Imagine 0:05:50.520 --> 0:05:53.039 you were lucky enough to get a ticket to go 0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:55.240 and watch your team compete at the Cricket World Cup, 0:05:55.440 --> 0:05:57.840 and then a guy behind you pulls out a microphone 0:05:58.200 --> 0:06:01.240 and starts doing his radio show. Because that's what Eddie 0:06:01.279 --> 0:06:04.080 maguire did. 0:06:03.040 --> 0:06:03.680 Not breakless. 0:06:03.760 --> 0:06:06.200 Then the ass just like here's coloring up. 0:06:06.440 --> 0:06:07.720 They're give us look stuff. 0:06:07.440 --> 0:06:10.200 Pictures on forty eight one is on forty seven We're 0:06:10.200 --> 0:06:13.440 going beautiful to hear and the possess around the crowd 0:06:13.520 --> 0:06:16.520 to hear at the moment, enjoying themselves at Lord's poems 0:06:16.560 --> 0:06:18.120 are standing the scene, but they're standing with his a 0:06:18.120 --> 0:06:19.600 little bit of hype as well. So let's hope we 0:06:19.720 --> 0:06:22.920 continue on from here. Na story having be handy at marches. 0:06:24.080 --> 0:06:24.640 Unbelievable. 0:06:24.720 --> 0:06:26.120 That's in the stands as well. That's not in a 0:06:26.160 --> 0:06:28.719 commentary box. That's out with the public. 0:06:28.760 --> 0:06:31.200 I need to describe what the video shows. Eddie in 0:06:31.320 --> 0:06:33.160 the Eddy suit. I don't think he's ever not in 0:06:33.279 --> 0:06:35.280 that Eddie suit. I think he sleeps and it showers 0:06:35.320 --> 0:06:35.480 in it. 0:06:35.600 --> 0:06:36.839 It's welded to his body. 0:06:38.240 --> 0:06:41.080 It's like a superhero outfit for him, isn't it. It's 0:06:41.120 --> 0:06:43.480 that Batman he thinks he's got like in his lair. 0:06:43.560 --> 0:06:45.560 He's got loads of them, sort of pressed, all ready 0:06:45.600 --> 0:06:47.920 to go. He pulls out microphone. There's a guy in 0:06:47.960 --> 0:06:50.760 front of him who looks around, like, what the you know, 0:06:50.880 --> 0:06:54.360 it's distracting. Plus he's not doing he's got a grapig microphone. 0:06:54.360 --> 0:06:55.840 I mean, I don't know if they're searched. When you 0:06:55.920 --> 0:06:59.160 go into Lord's. He kind of smuggling recording equipment. He's 0:06:59.200 --> 0:07:01.960 got no rights to be. They're not broadcasting on Triple M. 0:07:02.360 --> 0:07:04.560 And if you're a cricket fan you're going to be 0:07:04.720 --> 0:07:06.720 watching it. You're not going to be going on to 0:07:06.800 --> 0:07:09.120 Triple m's twitter feed to find out what is the 0:07:09.200 --> 0:07:12.120 latest score at my favorite game, to see how Australia 0:07:12.200 --> 0:07:15.160 doing in the World Cup. Eddie's there pulling out his microphone. 0:07:15.720 --> 0:07:17.960 I'm not sure whether they're allowed to share other radio 0:07:18.000 --> 0:07:21.640 stage stations videos right. I shared it yesterday. The pricess 0:07:21.640 --> 0:07:23.520 thing is the guy in front of Eddie who's just 0:07:23.560 --> 0:07:26.080 trying to watch the game. It gets quiet a lot 0:07:26.120 --> 0:07:28.240 of times during quick it doesn't there's a downplay and 0:07:28.280 --> 0:07:30.480 stuff like that. It's all very quiet. There's a there's 0:07:30.480 --> 0:07:33.160 a there's a loud Australia man behind you starts just 0:07:33.240 --> 0:07:34.760 to do links for his radio show. 0:07:34.800 --> 0:07:35.640 The is U. 0:07:35.680 --> 0:07:39.040 Breakless man, the ars just like there's coloring up.

The problems are standing the scene, but the 0:07:50.040 --> 0:07:51.560 standing bill is a little bit hype as well, So 0:07:51.680 --> 0:07:53.080 let's hope we continue on from here. 0:07:53.360 --> 0:07:55.360 Nas story having to be handy at lunches. It's the 0:07:55.400 --> 0:07:58.040 way that Eddie pulls out a great big microphone as well, 0:07:58.240 --> 0:07:59.560 where I don't know if I've been sat on it 0:07:59.680 --> 0:08:02.080 hiding it from the umpires or officials, and starts to 0:08:02.120 --> 0:08:03.320 do his radio show. 0:08:03.240 --> 0:08:07.040 The Christian O'Connell breakfast Show, Melbourne's Gold one oh four point. 0:08:06.920 --> 0:08:10.720 Three Yesterday, on the show, we had so many amazing calls, 0:08:11.320 --> 0:08:15.040 amazing stories off the back of five topic Tuesday where 0:08:15.080 --> 0:08:18.560 we run five phone ins at the same time.

He got 0:09:37.360 --> 0:09:39.000 called up in the middle of the night when the 0:09:39.120 --> 0:09:42.400 round tower at Windsor Castle burned down and had to 0:09:42.480 --> 0:09:45.920 explain the situation to the Queen the morning after. What 0:09:46.080 --> 0:09:46.640 a job. 0:09:46.760 --> 0:09:48.040 Well, I remember when that happened. 0:09:48.120 --> 0:09:50.480 Yeah, oh, it's huge cost, millions of damage and all 0:09:50.520 --> 0:09:52.680 the stuff they can't really be replaced because so old 0:09:53.640 --> 0:09:56.920 Mary said, my mum's work involves signing the Official Secrets Act. 0:09:57.240 --> 0:10:00.760 She still won't tell us to this day. Why that's great. 0:10:00.800 --> 0:10:03.559 So we're looking for yesterday. We'll be so impressed with 0:10:04.320 --> 0:10:06.240 my parents had done usually do. But it's also there 0:10:06.320 --> 0:10:08.040 was another thing in that call about blowing up the 0:10:08.080 --> 0:10:09.760 mountain was the fact that he took his kids to 0:10:09.840 --> 0:10:12.880 his office, his work, which was blowing up stuff for 0:10:12.920 --> 0:10:15.000 the mining industry. So we want to know did you 0:10:15.080 --> 0:10:17.400 go to work with your mum or dad? It probably 0:10:17.440 --> 0:10:19.360 it's not going to be as exciting as blowing up 0:10:19.400 --> 0:10:20.800 a mountain, but did you ever go to work with 0:10:20.880 --> 0:10:22.880 your mum or dad? The other thing we had was 0:10:22.920 --> 0:10:25.320 this great story yesterday back. 0:10:25.320 --> 0:10:28.480 In the old days at school in woodwork, might have 0:10:28.800 --> 0:10:31.959 sue many canoe somewhere around ten or eleven foot long. 0:10:32.400 --> 0:10:34.040 Now, I don't know where he was exaggerating, whether it 0:10:34.080 --> 0:10:35.640 was ten or eleven foot long, whether it was six 0:10:35.679 --> 0:10:38.040 foot long. The fact is at school he made a canoe. 0:10:38.440 --> 0:10:41.360 All I remember making for my parents was a wooden 0:10:41.600 --> 0:10:44.000 letter opener, and my mum and dad, not the kind 0:10:44.040 --> 0:10:46.880 of people who would use a letter opener, not exactly 0:10:47.000 --> 0:10:49.280 downtown Abbey where we lived. So we want to know 0:10:49.360 --> 0:10:51.080 what did you make at school as well? What did 0:10:51.120 --> 0:10:52.040 you did you make anything? 0:10:52.240 --> 0:10:54.319 Oh, woodwork has already gone by the time I got 0:10:54.320 --> 0:10:56.640 to public school. If you missed out the joint, I 0:10:56.679 --> 0:10:59.480 think they didn't trust kids too. I'm even surprised they 0:10:59.520 --> 0:11:02.839 trusted back in the day with all the power tools. 0:11:02.880 --> 0:11:06.800 Oh, honestly, it was power tools, drills, a lathe. We 0:11:06.880 --> 0:11:07.520 had a lathe. 0:11:08.160 --> 0:11:09.520 We were only trusted with clay. 0:11:09.640 --> 0:11:13.520 That's it. When you look back, Pats, it is crazy 0:11:13.600 --> 0:11:15.840 that we were allowed to just help. The teacher would 0:11:15.840 --> 0:11:17.640 just go listen, I've got to go and check something. 0:11:17.960 --> 0:11:21.600 I'll be back in half an hour. And teenagers were 0:11:21.720 --> 0:11:27.520 in a workshop with dangerous machinery, actual machinery, drills, a lathe. 0:11:27.679 --> 0:11:30.280 I remember, we could do enough damage with like rulers 0:11:30.360 --> 0:11:33.200 and pencil cases and stuff. If we had actual equipment 0:11:33.280 --> 0:11:35.200 with like saws, it. 0:11:35.280 --> 0:11:37.440 Was the highlight of my week. We'd get each other's 0:11:37.480 --> 0:11:40.040 pencil cases right and put them through this. There was 0:11:40.080 --> 0:11:43.360 this thing that you dropped that was a circular saw, right, 0:11:43.760 --> 0:11:45.880 And again we had no protector. It's no goggles or anything. 0:11:45.880 --> 0:11:47.480 We would just get each other's pencil cases when you 0:11:47.480 --> 0:11:49.400 weren't looking at tees out there, shove it in and 0:11:49.559 --> 0:11:54.320 go and actually cut pencil case in half. I remember 0:11:54.360 --> 0:11:56.520 one of the lads who got expelled from the school 0:11:56.760 --> 0:11:59.160 is quite a violent kid, trying to get another kid's 0:11:59.280 --> 0:12:01.719 tie and put it through the lane. But it's like 0:12:01.840 --> 0:12:05.319 putting him closer into its lucky not too involved in 0:12:05.440 --> 0:12:08.439 a death. All right, So the topic's still going on 0:12:08.520 --> 0:12:11.839 then from yesterday did your parents ever take you to 0:12:12.360 --> 0:12:14.800 their job? And what did you make at school? Nine 0:12:15.720 --> 0:12:16.800 one o four three The. 0:12:16.880 --> 0:12:20.600 Christian O'Connell breakfast show, Melbourne's Gold one four point three. 0:12:20.920 --> 0:12:24.640 Just had an email come in from Pauline, listened to 0:12:24.679 --> 0:12:28.120 the show this morning, already at work on Exhibition Street, 0:12:28.840 --> 0:12:31.400 said yesterday, I've got a late to the party about 0:12:31.920 --> 0:12:35.800 walking in through the wrong door. Christian, Hi, my husband 0:12:35.840 --> 0:12:38.880 and I hired a campervan to travel around Tazzy a 0:12:38.920 --> 0:12:41.040 few years ago. I'm not sure if you noticed when 0:12:41.120 --> 0:12:43.000 you were over there with your wife recently, how many 0:12:43.640 --> 0:12:47.480 caravan parks there are there Come dusk, everyone congregates around 0:12:47.480 --> 0:12:50.080 the many caravan parks in our case it was Devenport. 0:12:50.160 --> 0:12:52.680 We settled in for the night along with several other campers. 0:12:52.720 --> 0:12:54.040 We got to meet and have a couple of drinks 0:12:54.040 --> 0:12:56.679 with All went well, so I found myself making a 0:12:56.760 --> 0:12:58.880 quick dashback from the loom in the middle of the 0:12:58.920 --> 0:13:01.079 night to our van. I was about to jump back 0:13:01.080 --> 0:13:04.000 into bed as I heard someone whispering in a very 0:13:04.120 --> 0:13:07.560 foreign language. Froze for a moment, and as I felt 0:13:07.559 --> 0:13:10.080 myself going to a moment of sheer panic, I realized 0:13:10.400 --> 0:13:12.880 I had entered the wrong van, the wrong camper van, 0:13:13.120 --> 0:13:16.520 and definitely the wrong bedroom. Now only did I flee 0:13:16.679 --> 0:13:19.000 so quickly I left my shoe, one of my shoes 0:13:19.040 --> 0:13:22.840 at the door. Yes, I sent my husband around next 0:13:22.960 --> 0:13:26.440 morning to collect it. The poor buggers must have got 0:13:26.480 --> 0:13:28.680 the fright of their lives waking. It's just a single 0:13:29.000 --> 0:13:32.160 shoe that wasn't one of theirs. Pauline, thank you very much. 0:13:32.240 --> 0:13:34.240 That all right.

I'm good Gary, thanks for 0:13:48.920 --> 0:13:50.800 calling the show. So you went to work with your 0:13:50.840 --> 0:13:51.319 mum or dad? 0:13:51.800 --> 0:13:54.439 Yeah, I went to work with my dad back in 0:13:54.480 --> 0:13:55.400 the early eighties. 0:13:55.480 --> 0:13:58.760 She was a train driver. I would have been a 0:13:58.800 --> 0:14:02.880 bed of living. Drive trains all over Melbourne, pick up passengers, 0:14:02.960 --> 0:14:05.680 stop at stations, all kinds of stuff. 0:14:06.840 --> 0:14:10.360 That's mainly what train drivers do. Another way, you're explaining 0:14:10.440 --> 0:14:13.920 how a train works, so the train stops these people passengers, 0:14:14.200 --> 0:14:17.960 as Gary's telling us the first time, all around Melbourne. 0:14:18.000 --> 0:14:20.920 Mate, And do you ever let you pull the lever 0:14:21.040 --> 0:14:22.400 and push the button that makes it go? 0:14:23.240 --> 0:14:23.520 Yeah? 0:14:23.560 --> 0:14:25.360 I used to sit in the driver's seat, is to 0:14:25.440 --> 0:14:27.120 stand beside me and tell me what to do. 0:14:27.320 --> 0:14:30.880 But funding. 0:14:32.120 --> 0:14:34.160 Yeah, I guess you can't get it wrong, right, It's 0:14:34.200 --> 0:14:35.000 like rails. 0:14:35.120 --> 0:14:37.920 I believe you can, can't you Garry? It's quite is 0:14:37.960 --> 0:14:39.680 it quite a complicated thing driving a train. 0:14:40.680 --> 0:14:43.560 It's just there's a dead man switch. It's just you 0:14:43.680 --> 0:14:46.480 push a button every three minutes. If you don't push 0:14:46.560 --> 0:14:48.520 that button, the train will automatically stop. 0:14:49.880 --> 0:14:52.720 We need those in a studio.
