WEBVTT - MINI: Quake

0:00:00.560 --> 0:00:05.200
<v Speaker 1>Christ Yeah, welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell show podcast. So, yeah,

0:00:05.280 --> 0:00:09.799
<v Speaker 1>extraordinary scenes yesterday at about what nine twenty is when?

0:00:10.480 --> 0:00:11.640
<v Speaker 1>So is it is that right now?

0:00:11.720 --> 0:00:12.200
<v Speaker 2>Is that official?

0:00:12.240 --> 0:00:16.480
<v Speaker 1>Abouts? Here? A magnitude six five point nine? I believe

0:00:16.640 --> 0:00:19.599
<v Speaker 1>just a fraction of six. Yeah, you could round it up. Yeah,

0:00:19.680 --> 0:00:23.759
<v Speaker 1>the seismologists should have just rounded up, because in fact,

0:00:23.800 --> 0:00:26.680
<v Speaker 1>if I was around there, I say almost seven. You know,

0:00:27.240 --> 0:00:29.280
<v Speaker 1>once you get about the five, you don't really worry

0:00:29.320 --> 0:00:31.800
<v Speaker 1>about It's something radio figures come out and your number one.

0:00:31.840 --> 0:00:33.360
<v Speaker 1>But you know there's a little site fudge of it

0:00:33.360 --> 0:00:36.600
<v Speaker 1>where they just claim it anyway, So peraraently, where was

0:00:36.640 --> 0:00:39.880
<v Speaker 1>the ePIE Center because they're saying that was it Mansfield? Yeah,

0:00:39.920 --> 0:00:42.680
<v Speaker 1>Mansfield which is northeast of Melbourne about what is it

0:00:42.760 --> 0:00:44.720
<v Speaker 1>three and a half hours four hours away?

0:00:45.040 --> 0:00:46.400
<v Speaker 3>That's your old stop.

0:00:46.440 --> 0:00:49.760
<v Speaker 1>It's not far. Yeah, relatives felt the ground move yesterday.

0:00:50.040 --> 0:00:52.920
<v Speaker 1>I think everyone felt something yesterday. Tom you know his

0:00:53.080 --> 0:00:58.400
<v Speaker 1>girlfriend works in surgery. She's a doctor. She was in surgery. Obviously, people,

0:00:58.640 --> 0:01:00.480
<v Speaker 1>because if you think about what anyone is doing in

0:01:00.520 --> 0:01:02.880
<v Speaker 1>a big city like Melbourne at exactly that moment in

0:01:02.920 --> 0:01:05.080
<v Speaker 1>the morning, they're doing stuff and we're in lockdown, but

0:01:05.080 --> 0:01:07.360
<v Speaker 1>there's still a central service has been carried out. People

0:01:07.360 --> 0:01:11.840
<v Speaker 1>are performing procedures now. There was an open heart surgery

0:01:11.880 --> 0:01:14.560
<v Speaker 1>going on, and you can imagine the shake. Jack and

0:01:14.640 --> 0:01:17.200
<v Speaker 1>I were in this studio just having a meeting. It

0:01:17.480 --> 0:01:21.679
<v Speaker 1>was swaying puts it mildly. It made the building feel flimsy,

0:01:21.720 --> 0:01:25.440
<v Speaker 1>And that's what many people said the same thing. This

0:01:25.480 --> 0:01:28.960
<v Speaker 1>building is flimsy. That's what I like, because I remember

0:01:29.000 --> 0:01:30.880
<v Speaker 1>just thinking, so is this it? I'll die because this

0:01:31.240 --> 0:01:34.440
<v Speaker 1>building won't survive much more of this. I mean, there's

0:01:34.520 --> 0:01:36.760
<v Speaker 1>barely a day goes by there's not a horrible smell

0:01:36.800 --> 0:01:40.399
<v Speaker 1>of crap out there where the sewer problems. Remember like

0:01:40.440 --> 0:01:42.440
<v Speaker 1>once a week the male toilets are just bunned up

0:01:42.600 --> 0:01:45.680
<v Speaker 1>where they're out of order, and just walking into a

0:01:45.720 --> 0:01:49.080
<v Speaker 1>reception there's often a horrible smell of an open tree.

0:01:49.400 --> 0:01:52.000
<v Speaker 1>If they can't even get the toilets working, it ain't

0:01:52.040 --> 0:01:54.280
<v Speaker 1>gonna survive five point nine on the rick.

0:01:54.560 --> 0:01:56.240
<v Speaker 3>This does have a feeling of like one of the

0:01:56.240 --> 0:01:57.520
<v Speaker 3>first buildings in Melbourne.

0:01:58.280 --> 0:02:02.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, little be Now it's actually Betty. But if that's

0:02:02.160 --> 0:02:04.600
<v Speaker 1>taking a count out any longer, and we're on the

0:02:04.640 --> 0:02:08.040
<v Speaker 1>second floor here. I did actually think, so, wait, is

0:02:08.080 --> 0:02:11.640
<v Speaker 1>this it we die? Yeah, and we didn't move a muscle. No,

0:02:11.760 --> 0:02:14.440
<v Speaker 1>we're in an emergent, sitting there with your feet up there.

0:02:14.600 --> 0:02:16.560
<v Speaker 1>Jack and I were stood up. I remember one point

0:02:16.720 --> 0:02:19.720
<v Speaker 1>grabbing hold of the studios, like that's going to save me.

0:02:20.560 --> 0:02:21.080
<v Speaker 2>This will.

0:02:21.280 --> 0:02:24.400
<v Speaker 1>My biceps are pretty strong and probably stronger than probably

0:02:24.440 --> 0:02:27.359
<v Speaker 1>stronger than manitude six. I thought you were going to

0:02:27.400 --> 0:02:28.519
<v Speaker 1>secure the radio.

0:02:28.320 --> 0:02:30.480
<v Speaker 2>Equipment, secured the station.

0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:34.920
<v Speaker 1>Captain goes down with the station and I'm just dinner

0:02:34.919 --> 0:02:37.359
<v Speaker 1>in that trailer. This radio station is thirty years old

0:02:37.360 --> 0:02:39.880
<v Speaker 1>to my true. Yeah, I just yeah, I just read that.

0:02:39.919 --> 0:02:43.800
<v Speaker 1>I didn't know anyone told any of us. Yeah. Here

0:02:43.840 --> 0:02:46.760
<v Speaker 1>they're having a party on it that we're invited to.

0:02:47.160 --> 0:02:48.560
<v Speaker 2>This is like my DA stream.

0:02:48.600 --> 0:02:53.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm being rejected everywhere, even my own radio station. Also,

0:02:53.280 --> 0:02:57.920
<v Speaker 1>this radio station would be thirties heading into Middle Ages. Meanwhile,

0:02:58.120 --> 0:03:01.240
<v Speaker 1>Boris Johnson was a guy that's start discussing it at

0:03:01.280 --> 0:03:02.840
<v Speaker 1>a press conference with Scomo.

0:03:03.080 --> 0:03:05.680
<v Speaker 2>I was very thorry you had an earthquake, just yeah

0:03:05.800 --> 0:03:11.200
<v Speaker 2>in the Mansfield that's right in Victoria, which I know, Well.

0:03:10.120 --> 0:03:13.519
<v Speaker 1>Right, we need to contact number ten down in street.

0:03:13.639 --> 0:03:16.440
<v Speaker 1>How does Boris Johnson, even though he's aware of the

0:03:16.440 --> 0:03:19.880
<v Speaker 1>state of Victoria. Great, how does he know about Mansfield?

0:03:20.200 --> 0:03:23.240
<v Speaker 1>Boris Johnson? Has he ever been to Mansfield? Has he

0:03:23.280 --> 0:03:26.240
<v Speaker 1>got Are there any relatives have here? We to undercover this?

0:03:26.480 --> 0:03:27.240
<v Speaker 1>What is going on?

0:03:27.320 --> 0:03:29.880
<v Speaker 2>I was very thorry you had an earthquake? Just yeah,

0:03:30.040 --> 0:03:34.000
<v Speaker 2>in the Mansfield that's right in Victoria, which I know well, not.

0:03:34.480 --> 0:03:36.480
<v Speaker 3>Even I've been there, like I've passed her on my

0:03:36.480 --> 0:03:37.400
<v Speaker 3>way to the Skifield.

0:03:37.600 --> 0:03:40.720
<v Speaker 1>I know, well, yeah, not that I know of. I know. Well,

0:03:40.880 --> 0:03:46.040
<v Speaker 1>how justify that? Boris The Christian O'Connell show podcast. I

0:03:46.120 --> 0:03:48.760
<v Speaker 1>got an email here from Adam this simpler show right now,

0:03:48.800 --> 0:03:51.160
<v Speaker 1>Hello Adam, Christian, listen to you play in excess from

0:03:51.160 --> 0:03:55.440
<v Speaker 1>the Grand Final. I was there, been to four Grand

0:03:55.480 --> 0:03:58.960
<v Speaker 1>Finals as a Saints fan, always a hugely disappointing day,

0:03:59.280 --> 0:04:01.040
<v Speaker 1>and it has played. They were great. And as we

0:04:01.040 --> 0:04:04.400
<v Speaker 1>were trudging back Laka after yet another disappointing Grand Final,

0:04:04.960 --> 0:04:07.880
<v Speaker 1>I was stood in my sent Kilda kit. We looked

0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:10.320
<v Speaker 1>over and I saw Kirk Pengilly from an excess walking

0:04:10.360 --> 0:04:12.480
<v Speaker 1>as well. He looked over, saw me and my family.

0:04:12.560 --> 0:04:15.160
<v Speaker 1>Our eyes met. I could see nothing but a sympathy

0:04:15.320 --> 0:04:16.800
<v Speaker 1>in his eyes, and he sort of had been one

0:04:16.839 --> 0:04:21.599
<v Speaker 1>of those that like that was ugly. That's from Adam.

0:04:21.720 --> 0:04:23.520
<v Speaker 1>Just to clarify some of them. We just played this

0:04:23.560 --> 0:04:28.520
<v Speaker 1>out earlier for Boris Johnson and Scomo talking about the quake.

0:04:28.640 --> 0:04:31.159
<v Speaker 2>I was very sorry you had an earthquake just yet

0:04:31.800 --> 0:04:34.680
<v Speaker 2>in the Mansfield that's right in Victoria, which I know well.

0:04:35.400 --> 0:04:36.920
<v Speaker 1>So a lot of you have found out.

0:04:37.000 --> 0:04:37.560
<v Speaker 2>I've told us.

0:04:37.560 --> 0:04:40.400
<v Speaker 1>Then. The reason why Boris Johnson really does know Mansfield

0:04:40.520 --> 0:04:43.240
<v Speaker 1>well is apparently quite a few of you texting him.

0:04:43.240 --> 0:04:45.919
<v Speaker 1>Boris was apparently a teacher at timber Top.

0:04:46.320 --> 0:04:48.400
<v Speaker 2>Oh really imagine having.

0:04:48.200 --> 0:04:52.200
<v Speaker 1>Him as a teacher. It would be an amazing chaos

0:04:52.480 --> 0:04:56.440
<v Speaker 1>but incredible. Every lesson would be amazing with Boris. So

0:04:56.720 --> 0:04:59.880
<v Speaker 1>yesterday when with the big earthquake shook Melbourne, Jack and

0:04:59.880 --> 0:05:01.920
<v Speaker 1>I I were in the studio. The show had just

0:05:02.279 --> 0:05:04.440
<v Speaker 1>finished at nine o'clock, I think it was around sort

0:05:04.440 --> 0:05:07.120
<v Speaker 1>of twenty past nine, nine to twenty five, and it

0:05:07.160 --> 0:05:09.400
<v Speaker 1>went on for we now know went on for ten seconds.

0:05:09.400 --> 0:05:11.680
<v Speaker 1>We're on the second floor. The building was already shaking,

0:05:11.680 --> 0:05:13.960
<v Speaker 1>and then when it all calmed down, no one really

0:05:14.040 --> 0:05:15.479
<v Speaker 1>knew what was going on. We just thought it was

0:05:15.520 --> 0:05:17.800
<v Speaker 1>some building work. This building weren't going on in here,

0:05:17.839 --> 0:05:19.520
<v Speaker 1>and it was only then when we realized when we

0:05:19.520 --> 0:05:21.080
<v Speaker 1>were told that it had been an earthquake, and it

0:05:21.120 --> 0:05:23.599
<v Speaker 1>was possibly a five point eight five point nine. But

0:05:23.760 --> 0:05:27.080
<v Speaker 1>the incredible thing was loads of you were calling in.

0:05:27.120 --> 0:05:29.839
<v Speaker 1>There was this instinctive need for all of us to

0:05:29.920 --> 0:05:32.520
<v Speaker 1>talk about what we've just been through and compare notes.

0:05:32.560 --> 0:05:34.800
<v Speaker 1>You want to talk to somebody, and so me, Jack

0:05:34.839 --> 0:05:37.920
<v Speaker 1>and Pats jumped into the studio and recorded a load

0:05:37.960 --> 0:05:39.479
<v Speaker 1>of calls with you guys. And I'm really glad we

0:05:39.480 --> 0:05:42.279
<v Speaker 1>did because so this was live yesterday. I reckon what

0:05:42.600 --> 0:05:47.000
<v Speaker 1>minutes after the earthquake magnitude six. Here were some of

0:05:47.000 --> 0:05:49.279
<v Speaker 1>the calls RTT. So did you feel that quake?

0:05:49.600 --> 0:05:51.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, dann in point cook make everything in the shed

0:05:52.080 --> 0:05:54.840
<v Speaker 3>was moving around, and me mate across the road, Daddy's

0:05:54.839 --> 0:05:57.320
<v Speaker 3>prel water was moving a bit of foot over each side.

0:05:57.360 --> 0:05:58.160
<v Speaker 3>It was unbelievable.

0:05:58.240 --> 0:05:59.440
<v Speaker 1>You were okay? Were you frightened?

0:05:59.520 --> 0:06:01.880
<v Speaker 3>It did shivering me a little bit. Yeah, I've never

0:06:01.880 --> 0:06:03.080
<v Speaker 3>felt an earthquake before.

0:06:03.200 --> 0:06:05.040
<v Speaker 1>Stay safe, Brett. Thanks to Colling Buddy.

0:06:05.640 --> 0:06:08.280
<v Speaker 3>Budd Karen tell you what it was horrible.

0:06:08.440 --> 0:06:10.400
<v Speaker 1>I work in the general store, and post office at

0:06:10.480 --> 0:06:11.120
<v Speaker 1>Panton Hill.

0:06:11.240 --> 0:06:13.720
<v Speaker 3>The whole place started shaking. I thought a truck had

0:06:13.800 --> 0:06:16.480
<v Speaker 3>hit the shot. The doors on the storage cabinet fell down,

0:06:16.600 --> 0:06:17.320
<v Speaker 3>and it was just.

0:06:17.320 --> 0:06:20.080
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, we're scared. At first, I thought what was that.

0:06:20.200 --> 0:06:22.120
<v Speaker 1>Then it just kept rumbling and rumbling, and I thought,

0:06:22.120 --> 0:06:24.360
<v Speaker 1>oh my god. And I ran outside and I couldn't

0:06:24.360 --> 0:06:26.520
<v Speaker 1>see anything, and then I realized, I think we had

0:06:26.520 --> 0:06:29.360
<v Speaker 1>an earthquake. IM glad you're okay, Karen, thanks to Corning.

0:06:29.440 --> 0:06:30.520
<v Speaker 1>Take care look after yourself.

0:06:30.560 --> 0:06:31.520
<v Speaker 3>Thank you by John.

0:06:31.720 --> 0:06:32.920
<v Speaker 1>Did the earth move for you.

0:06:32.880 --> 0:06:33.599
<v Speaker 3>In a big way?

0:06:33.680 --> 0:06:33.920
<v Speaker 2>Mate.

0:06:33.920 --> 0:06:35.800
<v Speaker 3>We were sitting in the mid noddles, just waiting for

0:06:35.880 --> 0:06:39.240
<v Speaker 3>our order to come through, and the car started shaking.

0:06:39.320 --> 0:06:41.200
<v Speaker 3>We thought they were tricking us, just walking up and

0:06:41.240 --> 0:06:42.080
<v Speaker 3>shaking the back.

0:06:42.839 --> 0:06:47.640
<v Speaker 1>To get those shakes shaky. It's a new promotion, the

0:06:47.720 --> 0:06:51.320
<v Speaker 1>shaky Shakes in town, and weren't.

0:06:51.040 --> 0:06:53.560
<v Speaker 3>Forfee enough, so I was trying to prof others it more.

0:06:54.720 --> 0:06:57.480
<v Speaker 1>John, take care, Thanks Mick.

0:06:57.720 --> 0:06:59.480
<v Speaker 3>I was inside me Fair Tree and I was just

0:06:59.560 --> 0:07:01.920
<v Speaker 3>making up paint because I'm doing a bit of painting there,

0:07:02.080 --> 0:07:04.159
<v Speaker 3>and then I've felt like a little tremor and I

0:07:04.160 --> 0:07:06.120
<v Speaker 3>looked up on the roof because they've got cross bars

0:07:06.120 --> 0:07:09.640
<v Speaker 3>across the roof, and they sounded shaking like man. I thought, whoa,

0:07:09.680 --> 0:07:10.240
<v Speaker 3>here we go.

0:07:10.480 --> 0:07:11.280
<v Speaker 1>Were you scared?

0:07:11.560 --> 0:07:12.200
<v Speaker 2>No, not really.

0:07:12.280 --> 0:07:16.160
<v Speaker 3>I was just dumping and I thought, while I shake him.

0:07:15.520 --> 0:07:20.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, Jack and I did nothing. We just stood there talking. Lenano,

0:07:21.160 --> 0:07:26.200
