Speaker 2: stops the news. San Diego guys, where do you How
Speaker 2: do you feel about dining alone? Yesterday I dined alone
Speaker 2: and I love it. It's actually a nice treat because
Speaker 2: obviously I'm away this week in city my myself. So
Speaker 2: I went out for dinner last night by myself with
Speaker 2: my kindle. That to me is a treat. However, I
Speaker 2: didn't realize the restaurant I booked. I didn't know where
Speaker 2: it was. I just booked somewhere. It looked nice and
Speaker 2: had like a Tuesday special. I go in there, it's
Speaker 2: candle it The Tuesday special is clearly date night. They
Speaker 2: had obviously said that though on that and they were like,
Speaker 2: and is someone joining you? And I was like no,
Speaker 2: And then they took away the cutlery and then they sat.
Speaker 2: Then they looked at each other like prowlers here. Wait,
Speaker 2: he's got a kindle.
Speaker 7: That looks like you're sort of honey podding, as though
Speaker 7: you're you know, you've got It.
Speaker 2: Felt like I was there putting out vibes like some
Speaker 2: kind of creepy middle aged friend searcher.
Speaker 6: Yes, anyone looking for a third.
Speaker 2: Yes, yeah, yeah, there's an empty seat here. Away from
Speaker 2: my family for a week in town, no one would.
Speaker 6: Know, and what were you reading? That's important.
Speaker 1: I'm reading that.
Speaker 2: I'm reading this book at the moment, a novel my
Speaker 2: daughter recommended called Yesteryear.
Speaker 1: It's been a big best seller. It's very very.
Speaker 2: Good romantic anyway, No, it's some kind of It's all
Speaker 2: I know is has got a really great twist at
Speaker 2: the end. But when someone tells you that you're trying
Speaker 2: to be too smart, and like, I'm I'm only about
Speaker 2: ten percent in and I'm like, I reckon, this is
Speaker 2: link to the twist. Every line I'm like rereading it, going,
Speaker 2: is this the start of the twist? I saw the
Speaker 2: twist on page four. Oh, I saw it in the acknowledgance. No,
Speaker 2: it's very very good. I always like to read two books.
Speaker 5: That's the same time.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Always, you know, I'll read the nonfiction one in the evening,
Speaker 2: so it's not too stimulating because you know, it's like
Speaker 2: you read a novel, you really in that world, and
Speaker 2: at night time I get to overstimulated by it doesn't
Speaker 2: help me go to sleep because.
Speaker 1: I'm in that world.
Speaker 2: And then so the nonfiction book is incredible book I'm
Speaker 2: reading about bees. Well, that's not romantic, it's incredible about
Speaker 2: how sophistical they their societies are bee societies, and how
Speaker 2: they are like thousands of them.
Speaker 1: There's no one overall leader. They just know what to do.
Speaker 2: They sing to each other, and when the hivers run
Speaker 2: out of honey, they sing a song of increase, where
Speaker 2: we need to find a new hive to start making
Speaker 2: more honey.
Speaker 6: Do they say how the song goes?
Speaker 2: Well, obviously not because we're not bees. But yeah, so
Speaker 2: those are the song of increase. It's a brilliant, brilliant book.
Speaker 2: It came out ten years ago. It's a bestseller, and
Speaker 2: someone told me about it, and so I thought I'd
Speaker 2: like to read books sometimes I don't know nothing about
Speaker 2: because you just learn about something completely new. It's like
Speaker 2: working out a muscle. So, yeah, yesterday evening, I left
Speaker 2: within twenty five minutes. You know we're talking about No, no,
Speaker 2: you know you talk about personal bests. I'm actually have
Speaker 2: dinner within twenty five minutes to get out of there.
Speaker 2: I could tell us I was just a bit of
Speaker 2: a bummer there there. It was all couples turning up,
Speaker 2: like young couples in their thirties, and I could see
Speaker 2: they were clocking me and then realizing he's here alone
Speaker 2: and he's got a kindle. I think they were like,
Speaker 2: I think they were projecting stories on me, like maybe
Speaker 2: a backstory, like is he is he divorced?
Speaker 1: Dad vibes a week on from Chicken.
Speaker 6: Tonight it's not actually the evidence of staty.
Speaker 2: If the pap saw me, they'll be going. Love is
Speaker 2: on the rocks right now. For the O'Connell family.

Speaker 1: one lane. Oh my god, we're another lane.
Speaker 2: We're not indicating twice people were being when he was
Speaker 2: sat green lights once. I just timed in my head, actually,
Speaker 2: how long will he wait here? Five seconds at green lights?
Speaker 6: And so is he distracted talking to you? Is he? I?
Speaker 2: Think it's a way of being for him. Just driving
Speaker 2: around like that. Twice we almost got wiped out. No, no,
Speaker 2: genuinely wiped out, just like this is. I actually don't
Speaker 2: think if he took the test today he'd fell. No, no, no,
Speaker 2: I'm not just saying. In fact, I actually think we
Speaker 2: might get him to redo the test just as a
Speaker 2: thing I reckon he'd fell.
Speaker 6: Wow, it was a lot.
Speaker 2: I'll give you more details where we were going on
Speaker 2: our little road trip. Also when we were leaving where
Speaker 2: we are in North Sydney in the station here, he
Speaker 2: got very, very excited when he realized that he was
Speaker 2: like a tourist guide and he went, oh, we're on
Speaker 2: paramouta road now. He said it as if we were
Speaker 2: suddenly on the gang right along going to see twelve
Speaker 2: apostles on Great Ocean Road.
Speaker 1: And I was like, oh, it was just like us
Speaker 1: three all.
Speaker 2: Road car also shops everywhere and shut down businesses.
Speaker 1: But it was like, I don't know, should I take
Speaker 1: a photo or selfie now?
Speaker 7: Definitely not a landmark for Melbourne listeners. I would say
Speaker 7: the equivalent great punt Bridge roads. Yeah, maybe bridge Roade,
Speaker 7: A lot of Bridal shops, a lot of y X

Speaker 5: day one of term three, and already the emails are
Speaker 5: coming thick and fast, and there was one. They're our
Speaker 5: fifteen year olds in the school production again this year,

Speaker 2: I know we're all, we're all, you know, cost conscious,
Speaker 2: bunch conscious seas days.

Speaker 5: I'm not exactly sure as the ensemble. What costumes not
Speaker 5: just one they have to have. But there's always this
Speaker 5: mum guilt. You always carry mum guilt throughout your life.
Speaker 5: And then just a big wave of it again yesterday
Speaker 5: because I can't sew. I don't know how to sew,
Speaker 5: so I will.
Speaker 2: We had sewing lessons at school. I can sew. You
Speaker 2: can say my wife's done. So I could dine a

Speaker 2: and drugs. Do actually start making clothes and costumes for
Speaker 2: drama productions.
Speaker 5: I know just day to day life is enough. I'm
Speaker 5: pushed to the limit. I don't need to.
Speaker 2: I tell you what, Patsy, don't even worry about it.
Speaker 2: As soon as you get the pattern, there'll be a
Speaker 2: lovely listener somewhere. I'm thinking some kind of retired and
Speaker 2: non her. She hasn't used that sewing machine for ages.
Speaker 2: It's a bit dust at the moment. Suddenly she's hearing this.
Speaker 2: She's dropping her little knit and pattern right now, and

Speaker 2: go around making smells and elevator.

Speaker 4: The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 2: And I did there a near death experience yesterday getting
Speaker 2: in a car with intern Peach.
Speaker 1: Bloody hell, move.
Speaker 2: Over, Osho piastre now literally move over. He's coming through
Speaker 2: his mum's hold him with way too many wet wipes in.
Speaker 2: If you've got a young baby, they're needed. You're a
Speaker 2: going in forties and you've got an abundance of wet wipes,
Speaker 2: an abundance and an abundance more than any one person
Speaker 2: should have around the central control.
Speaker 1: So you know that's consoled. It's just a lot of
Speaker 1: wet wipes there. You kind of think, what are you
Speaker 1: doing as you're driving or stuck in traffic?
Speaker 6: That is curious.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and don't call him. That's not a quick today.
Speaker 2: What is intern peet up to? What is stuck in
Speaker 2: traffic with those wet wipes. I wish I said nothing. Actually,
Speaker 2: sometimes it's just too much to suffer alone in life.
Speaker 2: You know, you need to spread the loads. And I
Speaker 2: think that's what he's been doing, all right, So what
Speaker 2: is your current? What is your current?
Speaker 1: Ear woman?
Speaker 2: Sometimes one isn't something that you choose to keep singing.
Speaker 2: It just gets in subconsciously. That's what an earworm is.
Speaker 2: As a song, you find yourself humming or mumbling and
Speaker 2: you're like, why am I doing the wheek pix ad?
Speaker 1: Which is one of you? Right now?
Speaker 2: That's sad person's ear worm. Mine is a song by
Speaker 2: huber Stank.
Speaker 6: Oh, haven't heard that word in a while.
Speaker 2: Yeah. No, And I didn't think I was going to
Speaker 2: become a fan of a song by huber Stank. I've
Speaker 2: never really heard a song of theirs, but I last
Speaker 2: week on Double thumbs Up, I was talking about much.
Speaker 2: Me and my family really enjoyed this new comedy movie
Speaker 2: on Netflix with John Cena and Eric Andre called Little Brother.
Speaker 2: Christopher Maloney's also in it as well, and it's very funny,
Speaker 2: but anyway, in it, the main character finds a woman
Speaker 2: and falls in love with her, and one of the
Speaker 2: reasons why they realize they've got the same interest in
Speaker 2: certain things, same loves.
Speaker 1: Is that they both love Hoobi Stank and they both start.
Speaker 2: Singing this song together at exactly the same time. I
Speaker 2: can't stop singing this song. The reason at least ten
Speaker 2: times a day. I'm mumbling it just this like I've
Speaker 2: been hypnotized. It's like a mantra.
Speaker 6: The reason is you.
Speaker 2: I just find myself is I was shaving this morn
Speaker 2: I started coming in and singing.
Speaker 1: The reason is you? What a powerballer though? The reason,
Speaker 1: the reason is you. It's us.
Speaker 2: I get it, Huberstank decades later, you were ahead of
Speaker 2: your time.
Speaker 6: But this big in the UK because it was huge Australia.
Speaker 1: Yeah, with of two thousands y cargo pants and a
Speaker 1: wallet chain.
Speaker 2: But if we go back look at some of the
Speaker 2: music videos that lead singer's got.
Speaker 1: For sure, he's got vans on and he's got a
Speaker 1: wallet Jake.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I feel like I know exactly what the video
Speaker 7: clip looks like. It's got that blue Cepia color grading rio.
Speaker 1: What is your earworm right now?
Speaker 7: Oh my lord, this one is very much stuck in
Speaker 7: my head against my will. You've probably heard it also
Speaker 7: Against your Will. It is currently number six on the
Speaker 7: Billboard Charts. It is the Puerto Rico song.
Speaker 1: Now is this also known as the AI song? Yes,
Speaker 1: it is AI song.
Speaker 6: It's Ai slid.
Speaker 1: I am not a fan of AI music.
Speaker 6: It's garbage.
Speaker 2: It's absolutely It's like we said, we don't choose these songs.
Speaker 2: I didn't choose Hoberstink. They chose me exactly.
Speaker 6: I can't one.
Speaker 2: If I didn't know this was AI, I would never
Speaker 2: have guessed this is AI's frame.
Speaker 1: Isn't it terrifying? So there's no human voices on this.
Speaker 7: No, it's just some guy just pipped in some prompts
Speaker 7: up his holiday.
Speaker 6: Said Puerto Rico. What Taylor? Taylor showed this to me
Speaker 6: Forchu kailor?
Speaker 1: Oh of course.
Speaker 6: To know I'm ironically like it was like it was
Speaker 6: like the next stairway.
Speaker 1: There's no irony, there's no irony and producer Gaylor.
Speaker 6: It's so catchy, is it.
Speaker 2: I'm not I tell you what, I'm not catching it.
Speaker 2: It's not super spreading for me.
Speaker 1: No, we won't. We've got to be strong on this station.
Speaker 1: We pay real music.
Speaker 5: AI sounds like some eighties jingle for like a local
Speaker 5: shopping scenario.
Speaker 6: Yes, actually, first, you're right, this actually.
Speaker 1: Sounds like a radio advert. Sorry, I mean not as
Speaker 1: good as a radio advert.
Speaker 2: Because radio adverts are the best music, the best music
Speaker 2: you'll ever hear in your life. In fact, maybe for
Speaker 2: the People's playlist this Friday, just your favorite radio advert
Speaker 2: hours work Bang Bang Bang radios radio eents all right,
Speaker 2: because of last week talking about how I brought a
Speaker 2: jar of gray chicken tonight. Someone's era a week on
Speaker 2: is and so.
Speaker 1: Can we have chicken tonight tomorrow?
Speaker 2: Someone has got this song baby Steps take him. Someone
Speaker 2: won pub trivia last night and just as their car
Speaker 2: was pulling in the driveway, and they're pretty pleased with
Speaker 2: himself playing back all the right answers. This happened to

Speaker 4: Christian Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 2: Yesterday, Near Death Experience hashtag, give you ahead one of
Speaker 2: these I'm INDI club now nd what happened? I went
Speaker 2: in your car in turn pay good morning now. First
Speaker 2: of all, the state of the car, the inside of
Speaker 2: it was full of germs. I felt like I was
Speaker 2: getting in shout out to the older COVID give me
Speaker 2: that boat we had in Sydney Harbor Ruby Princess. Ah.
Speaker 2: It felt like I found the next outbreak. The next
Speaker 2: superspreader is it's a passenger seat of your car.
Speaker 6: Look, okay, to be fair, I'm known for weeks that.
Speaker 2: We were going for this road trip together. And as
Speaker 2: we're approaching your car, you were like, I've parked it nearby,
Speaker 2: everything's good to go. And then you and then you
Speaker 2: opened the door and you did that thing where you
Speaker 2: just went, oh, I haven't had time to clear out
Speaker 2: the foot well, and there was like a thousand wet
Speaker 2: wipes you've explained, uh, and then just junk everywhere, like
Speaker 2: you were living in the car or you actually a
Speaker 2: detective who's been surveilling someone.
Speaker 6: Look, you're right.
Speaker 10: It does need a little bit of a vacuum for sure.
Speaker 10: And the wet wipes, they are interior leather ones. I
Speaker 10: sort of when I'm in there, it was dusty on
Speaker 10: the inside.
Speaker 6: Why are you cleaning the leather?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: What did you spell on it?
Speaker 10: However, if I'm in traffic sometimes I think, oh, I'll
Speaker 10: do that little bit there, you know what I mean?
Speaker 10: Just as I go slowly, I always keep them there
Speaker 10: for those reasons.
Speaker 2: Interesting way you've got of moving around the lane to rtically. First,
Speaker 2: then we get going and you know where we were going,
Speaker 2: right strathmore So it's about half an hour, Yeah, and
Speaker 2: it was about half an hour away to an industrial
Speaker 2: estate there and and so away. I'd also, i'd also
Speaker 2: I didn't tell people, but I also put the destination in.
Speaker 2: You just had the air of someone that hadn't done
Speaker 2: it right, especially when I looked down I saw his Google.
Speaker 2: Matt said we'd be there in six minutes. Mine said
Speaker 2: twenty nine. Right, So I thought, well, I know it's
Speaker 2: half an hour away. I don't know Sydney as well
Speaker 2: as old mate here. But wherever we're going, he's just
Speaker 2: taking us around the corner lumbhold.
Speaker 1: He has to pull over and go. I don't think
Speaker 1: I bought the right addressing.
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, that's the point, I thought to myself. I thought, oh,
Speaker 6: it's a lot quicker than I think, really, really.
Speaker 2: A lot quicker from twenty nine minutes to six minutes.
Speaker 2: Let's go around the block.
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry.
Speaker 6: I didn't realize you'd noticed that.
Speaker 2: And then twice, man, you get bibbed from me behind
Speaker 2: us because you sat Green Knights yap in a way
Speaker 2: I know, I.
Speaker 10: Get caught up in my own head and I forget
Speaker 10: that I'm supposed to be paying attention on the road,
Speaker 10: and I was having nice chats to you.
Speaker 2: I think I was enjoying the chat gibe, but one
Speaker 2: of us was driving. One of us is in the
Speaker 2: passenger seats. And then as we got nearer to this
Speaker 2: huge industrial estate, there was some hoon car that overtook
Speaker 2: Miss Daisy here and as they went past, they actually
Speaker 2: gave us this and I was like, wow, I bet jk.
Speaker 2: Rowling really gets this experience being driven to an industrial wasteland.
Speaker 2: We're like factories everywhere, and a home racer reving up
Speaker 2: behind you and overtaking Miss Days in his holding, and
Speaker 2: I was like, wow, what it is to live like
Speaker 2: an author. For the day, we had an amazing time.
Speaker 2: Where we were going was the warehouse for book Topia,
Speaker 2: brilliant big online bookstore and if you want to get
Speaker 2: your books online use them. I've been using a few years.
Speaker 2: They did a brilliant service. But anyway, we went there
Speaker 2: and I was at a sign. I think it was
Speaker 2: like five hundred copies of my book if you pre
Speaker 2: audit from book Topia. I signed them. They're be coming
Speaker 2: out to you. Actually they're sending them out from today.
Speaker 2: So they started to coming out the next couple of days,
Speaker 2: and so it's amazing. Actually seeing the book. It's gone
Speaker 2: from being a document on various laptops and printed things
Speaker 2: now to actually seeing it in the wild. Thinking this
Speaker 2: comes out is exactly a week's time. Was incredible. It
Speaker 2: was a really big moment for me. Many people seeing
Speaker 2: them all.
Speaker 6: Is the biggest tile.
Speaker 1: It was amazing to say them all, wasn't it? Yeah?
Speaker 2: And I thought of the various people that were ordering
Speaker 2: where it's going. And then they said, oh, you can
Speaker 2: come on a factory tour. And I've got to be
Speaker 2: honest when I heard about the factory tours and they
Speaker 2: said an episode of play score it. Sorry, got a
Speaker 2: lunch now? And I looked at Pete like because Pete
Speaker 2: promised me that since we're done, he will get me
Speaker 2: out there, like he was like presidential protection. Now he's
Speaker 2: organized a factory tour. We're now putting on high vis
Speaker 2: vests and he's going capture all this for content.
Speaker 1: Who wants to watch two guys go on a factory
Speaker 1: tour at a bookshop? Albert Rio, there was robot.
Speaker 6: There was actual robot.
Speaker 1: I got to say. It was really interesting.
Speaker 2: It was for me, it was like going into it
Speaker 2: was heaven because it was it was the world's biggest library.
Speaker 2: It's thousands and thousands of the books that people are ordering,
Speaker 2: and they're being dispatched all over Australia. They have these
Speaker 2: robots that move around at speed. They run at you
Speaker 2: and then stop and stare at you and then sidestep
Speaker 2: you like they're Leonel Messi in the World Cup. They've
Speaker 2: got no, they're not got legs, and I've got their arms.
Speaker 2: So they when they get those arms, watch out humans.
Speaker 6: We saw there.
Speaker 1: Once they get armed.
Speaker 6: Uh oh wait, what do the robots do?
Speaker 8: There?
Speaker 2: Zoom up and now they have baskets attached to them
Speaker 2: and he zoom up and then a human puts the book,
Speaker 2: scans the book, and the robot takes it, legs it
Speaker 2: off to quicker than a human.
Speaker 1: Would to another island. This giant warehouse we all got
Speaker 1: to hit multiple times.

Speaker 2: us a call. Thirteen fifty five twenty two. In turn,
Speaker 2: Pete has a peach of a story. Oh yeah, so
Speaker 2: who do you buy something off?
Speaker 6: Yeah, this is a big story.
Speaker 10: I think it was at ninety three to ninety four Geelong, Victoria.
Speaker 10: Basically for context, any AFL player back in the nineties eighties,
Speaker 10: they'd all have to have side jobs because they weren't
Speaker 10: paid really a lot of money at all.
Speaker 2: But it was yeah, so many payers who were like
Speaker 2: playing at the weekend and then during the week were
Speaker 2: plumbers around like houses and people would have a go
Speaker 2: at them.
Speaker 1: But oh crap, they were at the weekend.
Speaker 2: Right, because I think imagine if MESSI I'd also had
Speaker 2: a carpet business as well.
Speaker 10: It probably does to be fair, No, it's basically everyone
Speaker 10: in Geelong because there was a lot of cars around Gelong,
Speaker 10: so everyone who played for the Geelong Cats pretty much
Speaker 10: was a car salesman on the side basically, right, So
Speaker 10: people would go down and buy cars from AFL players
Speaker 10: And I couldn't believe this when it was ninety three,
Speaker 10: ninety four, and you would not believe it. The guy
Speaker 10: who's making news all week, Ken Hinckley, former AFL player
Speaker 10: the Tassi John Yes, right, he sold us the A
Speaker 10: I was gonna say, well, it was a white car anyway,
Speaker 10: some Ford Falcon or something or other. And we lived
Speaker 10: off that cloud for years. We would drive up like yep,
Speaker 10: Ken Hinkley, I would have.
Speaker 1: Been actually back in the day.
Speaker 2: Even now, if they made like n around AFL players
Speaker 2: sell cars only cars during the week, that would be
Speaker 2: a big story.
Speaker 10: I totally would now n conmost to envision it now
Speaker 10: because I just remember, like a celebrity is we've got
Speaker 10: a celebrities car, like in my head as I.
Speaker 2: Can't imagine any other like major sporting code in the world.
Speaker 2: Where not that long ago, in a couple of decades ago,
Speaker 2: the players like eighteen players and talented players were selling
Speaker 2: cars on the week.
Speaker 1: Yeah, isn't it crazy? I love it so much.
Speaker 10: It was just such a big story of our time
Speaker 10: growing up, Like no one else.
Speaker 1: Well what celebrity? But you know, did you get that
Speaker 1: car off? You pull out the Ken Hinkley can't. It's
Speaker 1: a name, it's a brand, it's a way of being.
Speaker 10: Yeah, how would you just goy that like in like
Speaker 10: so very big in Victoria, right?
Speaker 2: Ken?
Speaker 7: I guess Ricky Stewart in terms of the temperament and
Speaker 7: career would be the NRL equivalent.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I wouldn't mess with Ken Hinckley. He doesn't suffer
Speaker 2: foals And I'm sorry the name Ken is. I think
Speaker 2: that's why he's got the job, not just his incredible resume,
Speaker 2: but the name Ken is a dependable caretaker in life?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, no, it is.
Speaker 2: He's a dependable uncle Uncle Ken's going to come around
Speaker 2: jump start your cart.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you trust her, Ken, don't you?
Speaker 6: In life Ken has jumper leads for sure, and as
