11
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:39,440
Speaker 3: wife's fiftieth on Saturday night, everybody's just starting to wake up.

12
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:42,840
Speaker 3: You wreck your back. The house is trash. For Trina

13
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:44,239
Speaker 3: Jones has tons of lizers.

14
00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:48,320
Speaker 2: She stood off. That party killed the show. Two thirds

15
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:51,240
Speaker 2: of the shows. He wipes out with a party round

16
00:00:51,240 --> 00:00:53,720
Speaker 2: at mine on Saturday night. And the thing you need

17
00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:56,720
Speaker 2: to know is it was a proper house party. No

18
00:00:56,840 --> 00:00:59,760
Speaker 2: often you go ound to people's houses and it's it's

19
00:00:59,840 --> 00:01:02,960
Speaker 2: a kind of everyone's quite well behaved and it's full

20
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:05,600
Speaker 2: of just crunching small talk. There was something in the

21
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:07,800
Speaker 2: atmosphere Saturday night, and I don't know whether it was

22
00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:10,440
Speaker 2: because everyone had dressed up as a dead celebrity seller.

23
00:01:10,520 --> 00:01:12,440
Speaker 2: It's a bit easier to lose yourself ye as a

24
00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:13,280
Speaker 2: character that's none.

25
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:16,759
Speaker 4: This is awful. How do you know, Christian Sarah hang

26
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 4: d be shown and then you go to kids goes

27
00:01:20,319 --> 00:01:23,080
Speaker 4: to school. It was, oh, there's another Freddy over there.

28
00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:25,000
Speaker 4: Oh you've come us.

29
00:01:25,040 --> 00:01:27,840
Speaker 2: Right, And so it was a nice breaker straight away.

30
00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:32,200
Speaker 2: And then for drinking, I mean there was a lot

31
00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:34,480
Speaker 2: of alcohol there. We spent a lot of money on

32
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,040
Speaker 2: making sure there's nothing worse at a house party. If

33
00:01:37,040 --> 00:01:38,560
Speaker 2: you aren't going to invite people around, you've got to

34
00:01:38,560 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 2: make sure there's enough booze. And we'd made these cocktails cosmopolitans.

35
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:46,240
Speaker 2: When you make homemade cocktails, it's not exactly behind the

36
00:01:46,280 --> 00:01:47,880
Speaker 2: bar industrial measures.

37
00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:49,240
Speaker 4: You don't know, always pouring more in.

38
00:01:49,480 --> 00:01:52,160
Speaker 2: How many times have you had a terrible night drinking

39
00:01:52,200 --> 00:01:55,760
Speaker 2: someone's homemade punch or sangrea where you could just smell

40
00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 2: the vapors before you even taste it, like boost just

41
00:01:58,760 --> 00:01:59,559
Speaker 2: coming through the air.

42
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,880
Speaker 3: You guys, have enough booze still at your house. I

43
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:05,360
Speaker 3: imagine to have another party for the every night for

44
00:02:05,400 --> 00:02:08,160
Speaker 3: the rest of the year. You had so much.

45
00:02:08,480 --> 00:02:11,760
Speaker 2: I'll say this now too much, and too much means

46
00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:12,679
Speaker 2: too much temptation.

47
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:14,920
Speaker 4: I'm talking about black Zambuoka.

48
00:02:15,600 --> 00:02:18,440
Speaker 2: Three bottles of that three bottles that was seen off

49
00:02:18,919 --> 00:02:21,680
Speaker 2: Champagne Cocktails cousin Lonson's, then the beer, then the wine.

50
00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 2: The house is wrecked. I mean like like our kids

51
00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:25,880
Speaker 2: had at a party.

52
00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:27,600
Speaker 4: Yeah, absolutely trash.

53
00:02:27,680 --> 00:02:30,400
Speaker 3: Well I did turn it. It turned into like the a

54
00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 3: college party you had seen in an American film.

55
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,440
Speaker 2: It really it because at one point, around about sort

56
00:02:35,440 --> 00:02:38,440
Speaker 2: of half ten, Chris Patsy's husband, who is a wild man,

57
00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,760
Speaker 2: I mean, he literally transformed into Frank the Tank from

58
00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:45,760
Speaker 2: Old School, right. He goes, at one point, do you

59
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:48,840
Speaker 2: want me to should we start doing beer bongs now?

60
00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:49,840
Speaker 4: And I don't know why.

61
00:02:50,440 --> 00:02:52,119
Speaker 2: I went to look at my watch and I wasn't

62
00:02:52,120 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 2: wearing my watch, like, I don't even know why we

63
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:55,800
Speaker 2: looking at watching and I've got an eleven o'clock appointment.

64
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,840
Speaker 2: I've got a half and how can we do it now?

65
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 2: Otherwise not at all, I said, I haven't actually bought one.

66
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,119
Speaker 2: I just said that to Patsy is a joke. He goes,

67
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:06,480
Speaker 2: all I need is a length of hose. I went, well,

68
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:09,119
Speaker 2: we've just had the garden turf. We need the hose.

69
00:03:09,160 --> 00:03:13,240
Speaker 2: I need to water every d and he said, I'll

70
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:15,959
Speaker 2: buy you a new hose. I went okay, so we

71
00:03:16,080 --> 00:03:18,000
Speaker 2: got He says, I need some scissors. So we had

72
00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,639
Speaker 2: to go around the side of my house and the

73
00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:22,800
Speaker 2: rest of the party is carrying on indoors, right, and

74
00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:24,639
Speaker 2: it's a bit damp and wet on Sunday night, so

75
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,600
Speaker 2: there's rain coming down. I'm there with Chris, who's supposed

76
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,000
Speaker 2: to be Dean Martin. I'm supposed to be Prince, but

77
00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:33,320
Speaker 2: look more like Captain Hook. I look nothing like Prince.

78
00:03:33,600 --> 00:03:36,600
Speaker 2: You could grab an average guy in the street that

79
00:03:36,600 --> 00:03:38,440
Speaker 2: that person would look more like Prince than I did.

80
00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:40,760
Speaker 4: So we'd do understand the house with a pair of

81
00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:41,480
Speaker 4: kitchen scissors.

82
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:43,680
Speaker 2: I don't know if you've ever tried to cut a thick,

83
00:03:43,880 --> 00:03:48,040
Speaker 2: kinkless Bunnings hose with a pair of kitchen scissors. It

84
00:03:48,120 --> 00:03:50,800
Speaker 2: took forever and you had to cut it twice. So

85
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 2: we needed like he took it really seriously. And then

86
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 2: then Chris took his jacket off.

87
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:56,200
Speaker 3: Yes that's when he got serious.

88
00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:57,240
Speaker 4: Yes, he got serious.

89
00:03:57,280 --> 00:04:00,480
Speaker 2: And there was always that very confident kid at all right,

90
00:04:00,600 --> 00:04:04,080
Speaker 2: that ran everything right. That suddenly was Chris. And they

91
00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,560
Speaker 2: always had an assistant, didn't they like a henchman. And

92
00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:09,320
Speaker 2: that was my big mate Brett, who's from Queensland. And

93
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,960
Speaker 2: I said, hey, listen, I'm not sure how these beer

94
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:12,600
Speaker 2: bongs work.

95
00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:16,280
Speaker 4: But this is Chris. He's comings Dean Martin. This is Brett.

96
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 2: He's come as a kind of Michael Hutchins, but doesn't

97
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:19,200
Speaker 2: look anything.

98
00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:20,599
Speaker 4: Didn't look like.

99
00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 2: Harts if he was still alive now and had been

100
00:04:24,839 --> 00:04:25,960
Speaker 2: homeless for ten years.

101
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:27,039
Speaker 3: He looked like Howdstern.

102
00:04:29,920 --> 00:04:33,159
Speaker 2: So he then became Chris's henchman. And then one of

103
00:04:33,160 --> 00:04:35,840
Speaker 2: them was on a chair. And how is the entertained?

104
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 4: Are we?

105
00:04:36,240 --> 00:04:39,039
Speaker 2: That people started to come out into the garden to

106
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:40,640
Speaker 2: see watch guys doing beer.

107
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:43,159
Speaker 3: Bong attracted the whole party. Then the whole party it

108
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,920
Speaker 3: shifted to a new gear, and then it moved out

109
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:49,359
Speaker 3: onto the deck where one by one everybody did a

110
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,280
Speaker 3: beer bong. No one planning to have done them on

111
00:04:51,320 --> 00:04:51,640
Speaker 3: the night.

112
00:04:51,720 --> 00:04:53,360
Speaker 2: No imagine if I said to my wife, look, I

113
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 2: know they don't like the coffin idea being there too.

114
00:04:56,240 --> 00:04:57,640
Speaker 4: What about beer bongs You've got?

115
00:04:57,680 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 2: That is awful, Chris. That is really crass and cheap.

116
00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:02,479
Speaker 2: People aren't going to do the grown ups, Chris, the

117
00:05:02,480 --> 00:05:05,080
Speaker 2: professional people. They're not going to be queuing up to

118
00:05:05,160 --> 00:05:07,719
Speaker 2: do beer bongs and then cheering on other people doing

119
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:08,159
Speaker 2: beer boy.

120
00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:10,839
Speaker 3: Yep, my wife has footage on her phone on Sarah

121
00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:12,280
Speaker 3: O'Connell doing a beer box.

122
00:05:13,200 --> 00:05:15,960
Speaker 2: It was not also a good look for Audrey Hepburn

123
00:05:16,800 --> 00:05:17,760
Speaker 2: a beer bong as well.

124
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:18,839
Speaker 4: It's disrespectful.

125
00:05:19,160 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 1: The Christian O'Connell Breakfast Show Melbourne's Gold one oh four

126

127
00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:29,719
Speaker 2: I am this morning on very very strong industrial strength painkillers,

128
00:05:29,760 --> 00:05:32,040
Speaker 2: so if the show is a little bit sketch at times,

129
00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:34,960
Speaker 2: I want to apologize. Now just remember I am high

130
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,880
Speaker 2: right now on very very strong painkillers. It took me

131
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:41,119
Speaker 2: five minutes just to get into producer Brad's car today

132
00:05:41,160 --> 00:05:43,159
Speaker 2: and getting out was a mammoth effort as well.

133
00:05:43,640 --> 00:05:45,400
Speaker 4: But the drugs are helping. Now.

134
00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,240
Speaker 2: What do you think is on Friday's show, We were

135

Speaker 2: asking listeners' ideas for the songs for my playlist, okay,

136
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:53,120
Speaker 2: and I'd hide in speakers for the music, and I

137
00:05:53,160 --> 00:05:56,000
Speaker 2: was very pleased to see that everyone danced all night

138
00:05:56,080 --> 00:05:57,159
Speaker 2: in the in the kitchen.

139
00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:01,120

Speaker 3: to keep everybody on the den floor for a whole night.

142
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:10,200
Speaker 3: Usually it comes and goes in waves. But to your credit,

143
00:06:10,320 --> 00:06:13,000
Speaker 3: everybody was there pretty much one hundred percent of the time.

144
00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:14,600

Speaker 4: He taped a child's sort of toy microphone too.

161
00:06:58,279 --> 00:07:01,320
Speaker 2: His Freddy was let by that by that outfit, ye

162
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,040
Speaker 2: by the toy michelphone. But the live Freddy off to

163
00:07:04,200 --> 00:07:05,800
Speaker 2: we Will Rock You between the pair of you was

164
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:07,760
Speaker 2: very good. The only thing that let it down is

165
00:07:08,200 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 2: he he started a break dance.

166
00:07:11,080 --> 00:07:13,560
Speaker 3: And Freddy wouldn't do that. See, I had watched Live

167
00:07:13,600 --> 00:07:16,560
Speaker 3: Aid that day. I actually watched he did you really Know?

168
00:07:17,480 --> 00:07:20,080
Speaker 2: And he starts showing me how he did even't perfected.

169
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:22,440
Speaker 2: Freddy does this thing with his knee where he flexes

170
00:07:22,480 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 2: his front knee and then locks out when he.

171
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:27,360
Speaker 4: Does the fist pump, and he's been working on that

172
00:07:27,400 --> 00:07:30,560
Speaker 4: all down. Said. Jack's also been watching Live eighty as well.

173
00:07:30,400 --> 00:07:32,400
Speaker 3: So when any Queen Son came on, there was this

174
00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 3: weird bit of hierarchy where we were trying to both.

175
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:38,200
Speaker 4: Both of them.

176
00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:40,400
Speaker 2: When I'm Freddy, I don't forget about this, Freddy, even

177
00:07:40,440 --> 00:07:42,200
Speaker 2: if you were off chatting to somebody, you'd make you

178
00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:44,320
Speaker 2: want to dance or go hey, no, no, no, there's

179
00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:49,680
Speaker 2: another Freddy here. They were battling Freddy's there needs to

180
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:52,120
Speaker 2: be your reality show. Forget the mask singer. It needs

181
00:07:52,120 --> 00:07:53,240
Speaker 2: to be the mask Freddy.

182
00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:55,720
Speaker 3: And I thought it was great that you had essentially

183
00:07:55,760 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 3: lined up a song for every different character at the party,

184
00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:00,120
Speaker 3: so everybody got a turn to like get in the

185
00:08:00,120 --> 00:08:03,280
Speaker 3: middle of the dance floor and really show off. There's

186
00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,720
Speaker 3: two choalms I have with the playlist otherwise, otherwise it's perfect.

187
00:08:07,920 --> 00:08:10,680
Speaker 3: As a DJ, you should know the importance of the

188
00:08:10,720 --> 00:08:13,640
Speaker 3: cross fade, so one song's finishing and then another song

189
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:16,120
Speaker 3: is starting, so that the dance floor never hears silent.

190
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:19,000
Speaker 2: I'm afraid that by the time you expect me to

191
00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:21,840
Speaker 2: have any kind of finesse with cross fades, I'd already

192
00:08:21,880 --> 00:08:26,800
Speaker 2: had a belly full of Zambuoka, Cosopolitan champagne, cocktails, Peroni

193
00:08:26,840 --> 00:08:29,560
Speaker 2: bear and it now moved on to red wine forget it.

194
00:08:29,760 --> 00:08:31,800
Speaker 3: So it's one of those dance floors that you don't

195
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:34,600
Speaker 3: find yourself on often where a song stops and then

196
00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:37,360
Speaker 3: there's a two second breathe while we wait. We're in

197
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:42,320
Speaker 3: my kitchen, there's a two second pause while we wait

198
00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:43,080
Speaker 3: for the next song.

199
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:46,320
Speaker 4: Well, I was using my laptop. I didn't have like

200
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:47,079
Speaker 4: turn to it was.

201
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:49,920
Speaker 3: There was a laptop with spotifil and that's which was

202
00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:52,680
Speaker 3: my second problem was it was too easy access to

203
00:08:52,800 --> 00:08:55,000
Speaker 3: the playlist, and by the end of the night, after

204
00:08:55,040 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 3: eleven o'clock, everybody knew it was there. So songs would

205
00:08:58,280 --> 00:09:00,520
Speaker 3: play for twenty thirty seconds and they would be like,

206
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:03,200
Speaker 3: all right, are we happy, let's start sub believing. Next

207
00:09:03,200 --> 00:09:06,960
Speaker 3: song twist and shout. We must have got through four

208
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:08,200
Speaker 3: hundred songs in and out.

209
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:09,160
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, there was.

210
00:09:09,160 --> 00:09:10,880
Speaker 2: At one point I went to the toilet and that

211
00:09:11,000 --> 00:09:13,840
Speaker 2: left the playlist unattended. It was like midnine. It was

212
00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,840
Speaker 2: like a feeding frendly there and I've started knocking all

213
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,160
Speaker 2: the toilet door, going Chris, Chris, can you come out

214
00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:20,400
Speaker 2: of those as quickly as possible?

215
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:22,800
Speaker 4: Someone is playing come on, Eileen. You know how much

216
00:09:22,840 --> 00:09:23,600
Speaker 4: I hate that song.

217
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:27,360
Speaker 3: She came home and told me, she says, there's two

218
00:09:27,400 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 3: sons I hate Love Shack and come on Iileen, and

219
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:32,079
Speaker 3: I won't have them at my party.

220
00:09:32,800 --> 00:09:34,720
Speaker 2: But even the next day when she was going, Chris,

221
00:09:34,760 --> 00:09:37,079
Speaker 2: you work so half the party, How the hell did

222
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 2: Love Shack go on?

223
00:09:37,800 --> 00:09:40,320
Speaker 4: The planers went? I actually go to the toilet at

224
00:09:40,360 --> 00:09:40,920
Speaker 4: some point.

225
00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:44,880
Speaker 1: The Christian O'Connell breakfast Show Melbourne's Gold one oh four

226
00:09:44,920 --> 00:09:45,600
