3
00:00:06,240 --> 00:00:09,680
Speaker 1: your life and the one thing about everything that's going

4
00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:11,520
Speaker 1: on around us all over the world and here in

5
00:00:11,560 --> 00:00:15,040
Speaker 1: Australia makes you start to think about re evaluate everything.

6
00:00:15,080 --> 00:00:16,799
Speaker 1: The stuff that brings the joy, the stuff that you

7
00:00:16,800 --> 00:00:19,439
Speaker 1: thought brings you jo a bit doesn't anyway. This week

8
00:00:19,800 --> 00:00:21,959
Speaker 1: it's maybe you think over the weekend, what will I

9
00:00:22,040 --> 00:00:24,959
Speaker 1: never ever take for granted again? Because we will get

10
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:27,320
Speaker 1: through this, this will pass. I don't know what it's

11
00:00:27,320 --> 00:00:28,840
Speaker 1: going to be like when we re emerge out of it,

12
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:32,320
Speaker 1: but it will. And what will you never ever take

13
00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:35,600
Speaker 1: for granted again? I started to find a I sorta

14
00:00:35,600 --> 00:00:38,280
Speaker 1: al must make a list over the weekend The christ

15
00:00:38,320 --> 00:00:41,720
Speaker 1: Jian O'Connell Breakfast Show podcast. So many things have been

16
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:43,800
Speaker 1: taken away that have been permanent, we take for granted

17
00:00:43,840 --> 00:00:48,600
Speaker 1: that almost come an ordeal, and now they're not there.

18
00:00:48,720 --> 00:00:51,000
Speaker 1: We can't get them so easily or at all. It

19
00:00:51,120 --> 00:00:54,120
Speaker 1: just changes your appreciation of them and you really you

20
00:00:54,200 --> 00:00:57,200
Speaker 1: feel their absence. For me, I'm someone that I'm not

21
00:00:57,320 --> 00:00:59,720
Speaker 1: really a fan of shaking hands with mates. I know

22
00:00:59,800 --> 00:01:01,720
Speaker 1: some of moment and male friends don't like hugging. But

23
00:01:01,760 --> 00:01:04,360
Speaker 1: I absolutely love hugging my mates and I don't care

24
00:01:04,400 --> 00:01:05,800
Speaker 1: if some of them feel very awkward around it, but

25
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:06,640
Speaker 1: I love doing that moment.

26
00:01:06,720 --> 00:01:07,440
Speaker 2: You are a hugger.

27
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:09,680
Speaker 1: I am a hugger. I know sometimes you stand. They're

28
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:11,920
Speaker 1: not knowing You're still in that. You're at that age

29
00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:13,880
Speaker 1: of life. You'll get their mate, You'll get there one day.

30
00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,560
Speaker 1: You're not there yet. You're on the edge. You're almost

31
00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:18,800
Speaker 1: entering in the puberty of hugging. I see it in

32
00:01:18,800 --> 00:01:20,920
Speaker 1: your eyes. You want to break out the shell, but

33
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:22,280
Speaker 1: you're still You're still in there.

34
00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:23,400
Speaker 2: I'm learning from the best.

35
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,640
Speaker 1: I missed. I miss the hugs. I really really miss

36
00:01:26,680 --> 00:01:29,039
Speaker 1: the hugs. Twenty one thing as well, in all serious

37
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:30,800
Speaker 1: that I'm really not going to take for granted again

38
00:01:31,160 --> 00:01:33,560
Speaker 1: is the people that we don't even see sometimes, and

39
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 1: that ow is the people that work in supermarkets, Bunnings, coals,

40
00:01:37,560 --> 00:01:40,720
Speaker 1: you know, warlworst that stack the shelves, that are written

41
00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:44,360
Speaker 1: off and maligned as unskilled or low labor. How we

42
00:01:44,400 --> 00:01:47,240
Speaker 1: ever could even classify a group of people that are

43
00:01:47,280 --> 00:01:49,920
Speaker 1: really essential. You know, we talk about what is essential,

44
00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:53,320
Speaker 1: what isn't essential. Those people are essential doing those jobs.

45
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 1: We didn't realize how much we actually need them. They

46
00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,520
Speaker 1: are essential. So I'm never going to take them for granted.

47
00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:00,680
Speaker 1: And I'm not just going to see through them or

48
00:02:00,680 --> 00:02:02,440
Speaker 1: as a silhouette or I am like a ghost that

49
00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,560
Speaker 1: doesn't matter to me. I'm always going to acknowledge them.

50
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:06,480
Speaker 1: I really hope. I don't going to promise myself. I'm

51
00:02:06,480 --> 00:02:07,040
Speaker 1: going to do that.

52
00:02:07,320 --> 00:02:09,760
Speaker 2: And you'll start You'll start hugging them when we're allowed

53
00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:13,320
Speaker 2: to touch again. People.

54
00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:17,800
Speaker 1: I know, Okay, I'm not one of those these guys, Jack,

55
00:02:17,880 --> 00:02:19,959
Speaker 1: What are you never going to take for grunted together?

56
00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,080
Speaker 2: Just the simple act of going out to see your friends.

57
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:26,080
Speaker 2: I can I can be guilty of at the end

58
00:02:26,120 --> 00:02:29,560
Speaker 2: of a long week someone trying to organize if your

59
00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,560
Speaker 2: friends to catch up and you go can't, can't be

60
00:02:32,639 --> 00:02:34,560
Speaker 2: bothered tonight, or like I'm just going to make up

61
00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:35,279
Speaker 2: an excuse.

62
00:02:35,040 --> 00:02:37,880
Speaker 1: That past tonight. Patsy knows what that's like. Yeah. Still,

63
00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:40,160
Speaker 1: we tried to do.

64
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:43,560
Speaker 2: You don't realize until it's gone, but we tried to

65
00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:47,760
Speaker 2: do virtual drinks on Saturday afternoon with all my buddies.

66
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 2: So we had sixteen people on a zoom conference video

67
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:54,840
Speaker 2: conference and it just is not the same people talking

68
00:02:54,880 --> 00:02:59,839
Speaker 2: over each other. It's like a breakfast, sure, but it's

69
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:03,160
Speaker 2: you got to imagine sixteen voices. You try to direct

70
00:03:03,160 --> 00:03:05,519
Speaker 2: a question to one person, they don't hear. There's another

71
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:08,200
Speaker 2: side conversation going on. And then the worst part is

72
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:11,680
Speaker 2: there's long awkward silences because everybody gets scared to talk

73
00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:14,720
Speaker 2: over each other. So at one, one or two points

74
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,880
Speaker 2: during the drinks, we're just sixteen people looking at each other.

75
00:03:17,800 --> 00:03:23,200
Speaker 1: From the street. How strange, how strange, these are the

76
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 1: things we're trying to do at the moment. Patsy, what's

77
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:26,320
Speaker 1: it for you? What are you never going to take

78
00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:26,840
Speaker 1: for granted?

79
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 3: You know, the biggest thing for me is just human touch,

80
00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:33,960
Speaker 3: just you know, I love cut a little girl and

81
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:34,920
Speaker 3: getting as.

82
00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,760
Speaker 1: You're breaking up there, Yeah, yeah, you have to tell

83
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,120
Speaker 1: Chris again to get offline. I thought we spoke about

84
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:44,480
Speaker 1: red hot DUTs. Oh no, he's going for session.

85
00:03:47,000 --> 00:03:48,760
Speaker 2: Chris is missing that human touch as well.

86
00:03:50,120 --> 00:03:51,200
Speaker 4: I need at.

87
00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 3: It's the human touch for me because you know, a

88
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 3: touchy feely person, aren't I Like I have to hold

89
00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:02,600
Speaker 3: your arm if I'm talking to you. I'm a bit

90
00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:03,400
Speaker 3: annoying like that.

91
00:04:03,920 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 1: I love that.

92
00:04:05,080 --> 00:04:05,600
Speaker 4: Yeah.

93
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:08,080
Speaker 3: The other thing for me is freedom of movement, like

94
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:11,080
Speaker 3: going wherever you want, whenever you want, just getting in

95
00:04:11,080 --> 00:04:13,280
Speaker 3: the car and going and being. And the other thing

96
00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,080
Speaker 3: is for me my job. We're so lucky that we're

97
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:18,440
Speaker 3: seen as in essential service and that weekend.

98
00:04:18,560 --> 00:04:20,560
Speaker 1: Every day, my kids are worried of the weekend. I

99
00:04:20,600 --> 00:04:22,479
Speaker 1: mean they always are constantly. If your dad was me,

100
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:24,280
Speaker 1: you'd be worried about surely some day is going to

101
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:26,800
Speaker 1: get fired. And they were like, are you going to

102
00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:29,599
Speaker 1: be okay? I said, I'm really lucky. I hope so,

103
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:31,880
Speaker 1: you know, I said, I really hope so, And I'm

104
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:33,840
Speaker 1: very lucky just by the job that we have, what

105
00:04:33,880 --> 00:04:35,840
Speaker 1: we do here. We're lucky anyway getting to come and

106
00:04:35,880 --> 00:04:38,560
Speaker 1: do this, and I've appreciated it even more because of

107
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:41,840
Speaker 1: there's not a lot of laughter sometimes during the day

108
00:04:41,880 --> 00:04:44,000
Speaker 1: in our lives right now because it's terrifying. It is

109
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:47,080
Speaker 1: actually scary. It's like it's like at the moment, you

110
00:04:47,120 --> 00:04:49,239
Speaker 1: know the bit in Toy Story three where they're moving

111
00:04:49,279 --> 00:04:52,040
Speaker 1: the conveyor belts kind of moving, you wonder, what are

112
00:04:52,040 --> 00:04:53,839
Speaker 1: we moving to something which is even worse and we

113
00:04:53,920 --> 00:04:55,680
Speaker 1: nowhere near the worst of it. I don't know, and

114
00:04:55,720 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 1: so when we have this hopefully where you know, when

115
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,920
Speaker 1: we hang out together and we laugh together, Oh my god,

116
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:03,040
Speaker 1: I'm so lucky that this is actually what I get

117
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,000
Speaker 1: to do for a living. So yeah, I really appreciate

118
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,719
Speaker 1: this job. All right, let's go, Let's take some call now,

119
00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:11,359
Speaker 1: know four one four one O four three Charlie, good morning.

120
00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:14,800
Speaker 4: Hey, how are christ And it's Charlie from Black Rocket.

121
00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:16,680
Speaker 1: You going, oh good Charlie. And what are you never

122
00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:17,840
Speaker 1: going to take for granted again?

123
00:05:18,040 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 4: Look, I'm actually for everything you guys were just saying.

124
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:22,919
Speaker 4: A second. Ay, I'm a physio in private practice, and

125
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:25,160
Speaker 4: the one thing that I can't do now is actually

126
00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:27,960
Speaker 4: see my patients. You know, within that one and a

127
00:05:28,000 --> 00:05:31,359
Speaker 4: half meters, I can't touch them as I normally would

128
00:05:31,400 --> 00:05:34,200
Speaker 4: do is as a treading therapist. And if you take

129
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:36,320
Speaker 4: that for granted, every time you go to work, it's

130
00:05:36,360 --> 00:05:38,279
Speaker 4: just a patient comes in, You're helping them with the pain.

131
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:41,000
Speaker 4: Now I'm doing some telehealth stuff where I'm giving them

132
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:44,039
Speaker 4: advice doing all the things online. But it's just not

133
00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:45,960
Speaker 4: the same. And you know, every day I went to

134
00:05:45,960 --> 00:05:48,279
Speaker 4: work for the last thirty six thirty seven years, you

135
00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:50,320
Speaker 4: sort of do take that for granted, And I can

136
00:05:50,360 --> 00:05:53,080
Speaker 4: tell you when this all changes and I go back there,

137
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 4: it'll be, you know, very much a different environment for me.

138
00:05:56,839 --> 00:05:59,080
Speaker 1: Brilliant. What an amazing thing to get from it, though.

139
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,080
Speaker 4: Oh look, it's just one of those things that you know,

140
00:06:03,160 --> 00:06:05,720
Speaker 4: we've got a big practice bayside, you're part of the world,

141
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,000
Speaker 4: and it's just one of those things we sit back

142
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,479
Speaker 4: and we go, you know, maybe we should be thinking

143
00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:11,920
Speaker 4: about things a little differently now.

144
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:13,880
Speaker 1: Yeah, you wonder whether we're going to when we do

145
00:06:13,920 --> 00:06:16,160
Speaker 1: come out of this, whether it is actually hopefully going

146
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:18,760
Speaker 1: to be something better and different and we put some

147
00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:21,840
Speaker 1: different things in place. You wonder whether we're all collectively

148
00:06:21,839 --> 00:06:24,000
Speaker 1: feeding this globally, aren't we And we've never done that

149
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: ever before. What a chance to actually make some changes

150
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:29,640
Speaker 1: to something different. You have to hope that maybe what

151
00:06:29,920 --> 00:06:31,680
Speaker 1: remains is better.

152
00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:34,760
Speaker 4: Oh look, I agree one hundred percent. You know, we've

153
00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:37,240
Speaker 4: got people coming the door now, and you can see

154
00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:39,760
Speaker 4: the fear on their faces, and I'd like to see

155
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:43,360
Speaker 4: that less. You know, they're always fearful of pain, Now

156
00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:46,080
Speaker 4: they're fearful of other things. And it's a scary thought,

157
00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:47,839
Speaker 4: scary time we're living through. But yeah, I agree with you.

158
00:06:47,960 --> 00:06:49,560
Speaker 4: We're going to get through this. We're all going to

159
00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:53,800
Speaker 4: be better people for it because we've learned to get

160
00:06:53,839 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 4: along again, I think, and we're just doing things differently

161
00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,960
Speaker 4: and hopefully over the time we'll just stay better.

162
00:06:59,120 --> 00:06:59,279
Speaker 1: You know.

163
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,280
Speaker 4: I think we don't want to go back to old habits.

164
00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:03,720
Speaker 4: That's that's probably the bigger issue that I find is that,

165
00:07:03,960 --> 00:07:05,880
Speaker 4: you know, we resort back to old habits.

166
00:07:05,920 --> 00:07:08,360
Speaker 1: Very clear, Charlie, Well, sir, thank you very much. You

167
00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:09,800
Speaker 1: cool mate, have a good week, stay.

168
00:07:09,600 --> 00:07:11,040
Speaker 4: Safe and you too. Thanks guys.
