Speaker 1: iHeart podcasts. You can hear more Gold one I four
Speaker 1: point three podcast playlist and listen live on the free
Speaker 1: iHeart app. Got anything good?
Speaker 2: Hey, this is the Christian O'Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 1: Welcome to a weekend. It's a big Friday show here
Speaker 1: on Gold one four point three. Christian O'Connell's show. Here.
Speaker 1: Good morning, Rio, good morning, Good morning, Alex Colin morning,
Speaker 1: good morning, Patsy.
Speaker 3: Hello.
Speaker 1: All right, so let's get into this week's double thumbs up.
Speaker 1: We do this every Friday on the show. We go
Speaker 1: around the team, we talk about the TV shows, all
Speaker 1: the things we're into this week. If you're looking for
Speaker 1: your next favorite TV show this weekend, to set all
Speaker 1: of those arguments on the couch, we have your back,
Speaker 1: all right for me? Then, first thing is on Stan
Speaker 1: second season of an outstanding TV show called Gold is
Speaker 1: the true life dramatization of the Brinx Matt robbery years
Speaker 1: ago in London, biggest in the world. They still haven't
Speaker 1: recovered a lot of the gold, even in twenty twenty five.
Speaker 1: And it's the story It changed policing around the world,
Speaker 1: how they caught the people. And it's the second season
Speaker 1: of it even better than the first one. Hugh Bonnival's
Speaker 1: in it, who was a great actor. Everyone knows wros
Speaker 1: You mean the dad from Paddington Did you know in
Speaker 1: the eighties he was a met police detective who apprehended
Speaker 1: a lot of the criminals. Hugh Bonnival's in it. He's
Speaker 1: very very good. I do keep thinking I hope Panton's
Speaker 1: on the case. I only could lay off those marble
Speaker 1: made sandwiches for a couple of days and he soon
Speaker 1: nabbed them. I can't recommend that that's outstanding. On Netflix.
Speaker 1: I really love the food TV show called Somebody Feed Phil.
Speaker 1: This is Phil Rosenthal who was the writer and showrunner
Speaker 1: for Everybody Loves Raymond, and he's got their own cookery
Speaker 1: show he's been doing. Sorry is basically it's an eating show.
Speaker 1: He goes around the world and just eats. In the
Speaker 1: new season, season eight, he comes to Australia on No Way,
Speaker 1: he's in Sydney and then he goes to Adelaide and
Speaker 1: also one of the episodes is in Vegas. Because I
Speaker 1: loved Everybody Loves Raymond that he's reunited with Ray Romano
Speaker 1: and Brad Garrett and it is they have a dinner
Speaker 1: together and it is so funny. Brad Garrett is a
Speaker 1: very very funny guy as well. It's a stand up
Speaker 1: in his own right. Obviously not the same caliber as
Speaker 1: Ray Romano, He's one of the best in the while,
Speaker 1: but the three of them reunite and talk about the
Speaker 1: TV show and the banter. It is a joyous watch
Speaker 1: because sometimes watching other people stuff their face faces in
Speaker 1: exotic locations. You know, I gave up what I love
Speaker 1: Stanley Tucci and even bought the book. But watching him
Speaker 1: in his ARMANI suits ain't a bloody great sandwich, right,
Speaker 1: I'm thinking, yeah, without shiny boarded, but beautifully a tired man,
Speaker 1: you know, And I'm like, it must be nice for you.
Speaker 3: That whole series Toucci in Italy seems is it just
Speaker 3: a bit pissed off the whole time as well? It's
Speaker 3: just a bit grumpy.
Speaker 1: Why he's eating the best job in the world, goes
Speaker 1: it around the world, eating the best food and drinking
Speaker 1: the best wines, and he seems permanently peed off. And anyway,
Speaker 1: the other thing I want to do maybe this is
Speaker 1: a new feature where I review and rate beers and wines.
Speaker 1: I had a beer last week, right, I don't really
Speaker 1: drink a lot of beer these days, but by god,
Speaker 1: I had this. It's a local one here in Victoria.
Speaker 1: I think it's in Seaford. Banks Beer. Oh my god,
Speaker 1: my word, I'll be your friend at the fridge this weekend.
Speaker 1: That is so good. Shout out to Banks Beer. I
Speaker 1: think they're in Seaford. That is a crisp lager and
Speaker 1: you are a lager special. Let's just leave it off.
Speaker 1: I am, You're right, I'm very dehydrated sometimes at last time.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what. It's the talking. It can unhydrate
Speaker 1: a human being. And so the way I like to
Speaker 1: remoisturize the throat and larynx is through Laka and White.
Speaker 2: The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1: Patsy, what are you giving your double thumbs up to
Speaker 1: this week? What have you loved With.
Speaker 4: The recent passing of Ozzy Osbourne? We have got back
Speaker 4: into the Osbornes now. I know the reality show was
Speaker 4: around ages ago, but we're watching it with Audrey and
Speaker 4: it's just so endearing. I just love Ossie on that
Speaker 4: and they call him Daddy and it's just Sharon the
Speaker 4: business brain. What a phenomenal woman.
Speaker 1: God, she said, sheninely saved his life and got him
Speaker 1: off the charge and rehab. But more than that, she
Speaker 1: totally rebuilt his business and a real male dominated, very
Speaker 1: aggressive world heavy metal. Yes, she's a phenomenal, amazing woman.
Speaker 4: And I think, and I was never into them, but
Speaker 4: I think I like Black Sabbath.
Speaker 1: What Y, You're never too late to get into the Sabbath?
Speaker 4: So late to the party.
Speaker 1: Oh wow, never too late.
Speaker 4: You found appreciation of just how.
Speaker 1: They really literally they were. They are the godfathers of
Speaker 1: heavy metal whole genre.
Speaker 4: Oh I just I'm loving it, I said to Chris.
Speaker 4: Why am I just discovering this? I'm so late.
Speaker 1: Ossy up there right now. He'd be so happy. He's
Speaker 1: still getting new fans always.
Speaker 4: And what a stunning looking man.
Speaker 1: Oh so cool, funny and such a charmer as well.
Speaker 5: Fad said to me in the News and Sport yesterday.
Speaker 5: She said to me, oh, look at the bone structure,
Speaker 5: look at the facial.
Speaker 1: Structure of heard anyone say that about beautiful jaw and lips?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you had lips, and that's what Patsy likes.
Speaker 1: You give Patsy a lipped man.
Speaker 4: Anyway, You can watch the Osborne's on Amazon Prime. We
Speaker 4: watched Sunday this week. The first dropped eighty one percent
Speaker 4: on Rotten Tomatoes. I'll tell you what, though, it's a
Speaker 4: bit scary in places.
Speaker 1: What's this?
Speaker 4: This is Wednesday?
Speaker 1: Like?
Speaker 4: The second series is just right?
Speaker 1: All right, I've never heard of it Wednesday. It's massy.
Speaker 2: The girls.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you trying to sound like you're in the note
Speaker 1: the girl? Right?
Speaker 3: Who's the girl?
Speaker 4: Your taker?
Speaker 1: Yes? Right?
Speaker 4: And Steve Steve to.
Speaker 1: Speak the big Lebowski. Yes he's in it.
Speaker 4: I love him.
Speaker 1: He's a great actual he's a pretty scary.
Speaker 4: It's a bit scary, but I love it. And the
Speaker 4: other thing this week I want to bring to the party.
Speaker 4: I've got a new and for Taco nights. This will
Speaker 4: change your life. These are little taco holders. They're like
Speaker 4: two bucks from came up. Look at you looking?
Speaker 1: I was having a pair actually, because you're right, you
Speaker 1: have to lay them down.
Speaker 4: I don't like that at the flat bottom. But they're
Speaker 4: not always available.
Speaker 3: And they're too hard to get your mouth around.
Speaker 1: Sometimes you've got to just stand your jaw like a cop.
Speaker 4: The's are cute, like their little Mexican hats, different colors. No,
Speaker 4: the kids love them.
Speaker 1: I don't think you refer to those Mexican hats. I
Speaker 1: think that might be a stereotype there of a nation. Okay,
Speaker 1: stop a cane and then you.
Speaker 4: Just sit them in there and they don't spill over.
Speaker 1: Oh wow, it's like you're talking to a Mexican There
Speaker 1: isn't it and quickly rio okay, I jump in at Rio,
Speaker 1: what do you think you get? Double thumbers up? This week?
Speaker 3: I am loving Unfiltered with Hamish McLaughlin. So it is
Speaker 3: a series and it sounds on paper not very good.
Speaker 1: Now I've been watching them and that he's done some
Speaker 1: great interviews. They're awesome.
Speaker 3: It's a thirty minute sit down with AFL players who
Speaker 3: historically are some of the most boring people in the world.
Speaker 1: Well that's a way to alienate an entire francship. But
Speaker 1: they have been I mean, they can be quite dry
Speaker 1: and I.
Speaker 3: Just watered down, you know that like media train and
Speaker 3: they just sort of, you know, go through cliche.
Speaker 1: Terrifieder said anything too interesting exactly.
Speaker 3: But he does such a good job of getting these
Speaker 3: incredible stories of it all holding because they've had such
Speaker 3: interesting lives and he does such a good job.
Speaker 1: I get quite tear for watching it. Yeah, it's beautiful.
Speaker 1: Quite actually quite moving, isn't it when you hear them
Speaker 1: open up a bit more? And Hamish is like painstaking.
Speaker 1: He like he's like a safe cracker in their hearts,
Speaker 1: isn't he? You know? And also tell you what, hell,
Speaker 1: a lot of bangles, a lot of bangles. It's like
Speaker 1: the leading of Aerosmith's chatting to them. I do want to.
Speaker 2: J wow.
Speaker 1: He's sort of a bit too far back in the seat,
Speaker 1: but that's how he's less confrontational that way, because you know,
Speaker 1: I might start actually just put my feet up, you know,
Speaker 1: just just get to sit up a little bit. I
Speaker 1: don't know. They're very good, though, very good interviews amazing.
Speaker 3: Well when you're at set, and maybe you can pass
Speaker 3: that for you that my favorite with the Tom Papley
Speaker 3: episode and the Toby Green ones was fascinating.
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, we'll take a break. We'll come back
Speaker 1: with Alex Cullen as he goes to more presenters on
Speaker 1: the networks that he doesn't respect. And this is a
Speaker 1: guy who obviously became very available for hire. It's amazing.
Speaker 1: It was all back from it.
Speaker 2: The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 1: First half hour Friday. We called it double thumbs up. Well,
Speaker 1: tell you about the things we're into the moment. You
Speaker 1: might find a feature, a TV show, or a taco
Speaker 1: item to change your life. Alex Culin, what have you
Speaker 1: loved this week? Mate?
Speaker 5: Oh look, I was on the HEROLDS website the other
Speaker 5: day and I saw this little thing about Jimmy Bartill
Speaker 5: pop up, and it was from a podcast he did
Speaker 5: with Sarah Grinberg.
Speaker 1: It's called a Life of Greatness. A couple of weeks ago,
Speaker 1: you go, he downloaded it. That was my next item
Speaker 1: I was going to talk about. You probably didn't like it.
Speaker 1: I did in the interview, you know I did.
Speaker 4: Really.
Speaker 6: Oh okay, anyway, Jimmy, buttell great podcast that they've got
Speaker 6: you on it, of course, but she does this thing
Speaker 6: where it's basically her guests shared their research, knowledge and
Speaker 6: experience to help you cultivate an extraordinary existence.
Speaker 1: Now you're reading out the I just was sorry. I
Speaker 1: wanted to hear in radio we don't eat Auto Cure
Speaker 1: or Telly Pumps, and she says, I lovetime experience. It's
Speaker 1: a good time. Wherever you get your podcast.
Speaker 6: She does a great podcast, very good and so Jimmy
Speaker 6: Budt tell what a story, My goodness, gracious talks.
Speaker 5: About his dad and he's drinking problems and when his
Speaker 5: parents split when he was very young, some really really
Speaker 5: heavy stuff. And so he talks a bit about his
Speaker 5: relationship with his dad, a very difficult one, you know,
Speaker 5: the premierships seven oh nine, twenty eleven, you know, delivering
Speaker 5: that first premiership to DeLong and how many decades so
Speaker 5: so long, the relationship with his kids, fatherhood, and just
Speaker 5: also that breakup with he touches on as well, and
Speaker 5: some really really good life lessons from him.
Speaker 1: Like I was just so inspired by him. I really
Speaker 1: enjoyed the listen. It was lovely. I'll tell you what.
Speaker 1: He's also, I think he's a very good pundit. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so a lot of great players that don't make the crossover, right.
Speaker 1: They are two very different skills, obviously, but I actually
Speaker 1: think he's a very Him and James Hurd do a
Speaker 1: great job together. Actually obviously two great players, but really
Speaker 1: really smart. It's a very good watch actually, but yeah,
Speaker 1: incredible life story for Jimmy Bartown, not just as a player.
Speaker 5: Definitely, and to come back from from that, you know,
Speaker 5: that really really difficult childhood. And one of the things
Speaker 5: he talked about was he always wants to have the
Speaker 5: lights on at his house and he's home for his
Speaker 5: family because his father's house was really dark, and it
Speaker 5: just brought back those bad memories.
Speaker 1: And I got, that's so moving, How that incredible which
Speaker 1: stays with you, It leaves an imprens.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, and he's and he just talks about how
Speaker 5: he's he's really concentrating on being a really good father
Speaker 5: for his kids and and it's just lovely, lovely stuff.
Speaker 5: And I and I tip my cap to him for
Speaker 5: that really honest chat.
Speaker 1: So it was lovely, all right. So the podcast is
Speaker 1: a life of greatness that Alex was talking about with
Speaker 1: said a grim Brooks
