Speaker 1: I Heeart podcasts. You can hear more gold one I

Speaker 2: Got anything good?
Speaker 3: Hey, this is the Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, that rarely gets sounded. That claxon by
Speaker 1: the producers. Oh it's gone off again. The producers soundless guys.
Speaker 1: Turn it off, and it's like a warning to me
Speaker 1: from them that pats is tired. I'm going to speak
Speaker 1: to her about it. Please turn it off. I've heard
Speaker 1: reports that the jacket was inside out when he came
Speaker 1: into work today, and also you were somehow I actually
Speaker 1: drag your headphones into the kitchen.
Speaker 4: It's been a comedy of errors. It hasn't started out well.
Speaker 4: Turn it off, not just the headphones, but my microphone popper.
Speaker 4: And then I couldn't work out why my coffee bag
Speaker 4: wasn't working. I'm thinking I put too much milk in there.
Speaker 4: What's go I'd put iced water in Patsy. You know
Speaker 4: what's going on.
Speaker 1: As he works so hard right now, I need to
Speaker 1: do this job. You get out way before the rest
Speaker 1: of us to drive in from Holland, isn't it feels
Speaker 1: like otherwise known as Werriby. I mean it's easy to
Speaker 1: fly in from Europe and drive from Weeraby to do this.
Speaker 1: And you're a mom as well, and mum's worked way
Speaker 1: way harder than dad's. And I hear, yes, there was
Speaker 1: a Langham lunch.
Speaker 4: There was a Langam lunch, but it was it was
Speaker 4: only like two hours. It wasn't oh.
Speaker 1: Bloody sorry one certainly there was only two hours of
Speaker 1: free eating and drinking. You're went down to one hundred
Speaker 1: and twenty minutes for bender. You're right, yeah, there was,
Speaker 1: but it under two hours. Alt, No, I don't think.
Speaker 4: It's that how sad it is when I pulled up
Speaker 4: the guys that you know do the cars and stuff there,
Speaker 4: what do they call him? The concierge know me?
Speaker 1: They call you guys. I just got your average Joes.
Speaker 4: And Mike's a lovely guy there. Hello, Mike, and I
Speaker 4: just pulled up this analogy.
Speaker 1: We're just now doing the show call. We've managed to
Speaker 1: reduce the show to mic.
Speaker 4: You barely even need to have a conversation. I just
Speaker 4: hand him the keys. He goes, hey, Pet's enjoy yourself.
Speaker 4: And it's just it's just like a.
Speaker 5: Such a great story.
Speaker 1: It's actually really relatable. That lovely man treat you did
Speaker 1: yesterday be the reason someone smiles today. Shout out to
Speaker 1: Mike's throw the keys in his eyes. Actually, I'm getting
Speaker 1: on for two hours. You're going to need to drive
Speaker 1: you back as well. Mate.
Speaker 4: It's not like that at all. But I don't know
Speaker 4: what's going on today, so anything's possible. So just you know, cool,
Speaker 4: flax and cool.
Speaker 6: Well, that's that's good news, isn't it.
Speaker 1: Into a live broadcasting environment with microphones and words and
Speaker 1: exhaustion and anything possible. What's worse than radio gone rogue?
Speaker 1: Anything can happen. Actually, can we just nail it down
Speaker 1: that something something might not happen? Please? Which would be fun? Now, Alex,
Speaker 1: we need today's morning mantra. So yes, Patsy had it
Speaker 1: and it was be the reason someone smiles today and
Speaker 1: I found it on on Tuesday. The reason why we're
Speaker 1: doing this morning mantra is come to a Tuesday written
Speaker 1: chalk on the wall of this radio station. Someone has
Speaker 1: just written be the best part of somebody else's day.
Speaker 1: And so now I'm thinking, let's try and do this
Speaker 1: every day. Have a good intention in the morning Alex
Speaker 1: would have you brought in.
Speaker 6: Well, it's one I have lived by for a lot
Speaker 6: of my life, and that is control. The controllables or
Speaker 6: the uncontrollables will control you. In other words, control the
Speaker 6: things that you have the power of controlling. So don't
Speaker 6: worry about the things you can't control, the controllables, exactly right.
Speaker 6: So otherwise if you don't, if it's really so, have
Speaker 6: a little think about it, to sit back and go, yeah, okay,
Speaker 6: well you need to.
Speaker 1: Think about it. What you said, you couldn't get it
Speaker 1: right second time around. Why are you controlling? He's on
Speaker 1: control in the controller.
Speaker 6: Just simplified down to control what you can control. Don't
Speaker 6: worry about the other stuff. So when my dad was
Speaker 6: diagnosed with brain cancer, that was something I couldn't control.
Speaker 6: That was something that I had no power of. I
Speaker 6: just had to accept that what I could control was
Speaker 6: how I responded to it and how I could be
Speaker 6: there for him, be there for my family, and I
Speaker 6: guess be there for all those people that were going
Speaker 6: through a really really hard time earlier this year with
Speaker 6: what happened with Channel nine and the fallout from that.
Speaker 6: I couldn't control what they were doing, but I could
Speaker 6: control what I was doing, and that was being the
Speaker 6: best person I could be for my family and keeping fit,
Speaker 6: meditating and going out there and finding work again, putting
Speaker 6: one foot in front of the other, and controlling what
Speaker 6: I could control, not worrying about the other stuff. So
Speaker 6: I guess this morning's lesson is, don't worry about the
Speaker 6: other stuff, don't sweat the small stuff, and just do
Speaker 6: what you can do and control what you can control.
Speaker 2: I love that, Thanks very much, Alex the Christian O'Connell
Speaker 2: Show podcast.
Speaker 1: In Today's Uber Driver, right, because I get an Uber
Speaker 1: in the morning, sometimes I might get a driver's picked
Speaker 1: me up before, okay, And an Uber driver last week
Speaker 1: told me, he said, by the way uber drivers know
Speaker 1: that you're a regular. They park up. There's about seven
Speaker 1: Uber drivers around the corner a few mile house. What
Speaker 1: he goes, look now there's school around the corner. There
Speaker 1: was a fleet of Uber drivers, several he goes, they
Speaker 1: know well because he goes. The reason why he said,
Speaker 1: I was doing an airport pick up the day and
Speaker 1: someone had to go at me. He said, you pick
Speaker 1: up Christian, I've been doing him for longer. Stop. Yeah, anyway,
Speaker 1: today's guy he last picked me up a couple of
Speaker 1: years ago, right, and I ran straight away. Yeah, he's
Speaker 1: half the size. He's lost why. I said, hey, bliyy,
Speaker 1: and he goes, yeah, yeah, I'm finally mortgage free. His
Speaker 1: mortgage free. He's paid his mortgage off, right, and he's
Speaker 1: out of the corporate world. And I closed my eyes
Speaker 1: and try to imagine what that would be like. And
Speaker 1: I thought of myself as a kid, free wheeling down
Speaker 1: this big hill that used to be dumb, well wasn't peddling,
Speaker 1: and my arms are outstretched, free as a bird. And
Speaker 1: then suddenly we actually went and that's not a life
Speaker 1: ahead view. Well, then one get free, tet free free.
Speaker 5: And he's just driving around Melbourne. Yes, that could be you.
Speaker 1: One day. He's up early in the morning. Yeah, starts
Speaker 1: at four am, he said. He just likes still having
Speaker 1: something to do. He does it two or three days
Speaker 1: a week, depending on how it feels about it. But
Speaker 1: like the fact he still does something. You're getting up
Speaker 1: at four am, and that that's the guy that still
Speaker 1: needs human connection what we all do. But my point
Speaker 1: is if you close your eyes and this is I
Speaker 1: think as it was to worries, this is how you
Speaker 1: know if you're an adult. If you close your eyes
Speaker 1: and someone says to you, imagine being debt free. If
Speaker 1: that creates space in your body, you're an adult. If
Speaker 1: you're a child that they wouldn't know what you meant.
Speaker 1: Were even an immature adult that doesn't yet have debt.
Speaker 1: You're now inheriting debt with a mortgage.
Speaker 7: You asked me this one week ago, I would have
Speaker 7: been like, I don't know what that's like.
Speaker 5: Now it weighs heavy.
Speaker 1: Are you free wheeling down s Catherine's Hill on a tandem?
Speaker 7: I am tumbling down raising my elbows. Oh my lord,
Speaker 7: that must be nice.
Speaker 1: Actually was annoyed that he told me.
Speaker 5: In your face.
Speaker 1: The two of us are in the same car together
Speaker 1: and we're going on the same journey, but we get
Speaker 1: out and have very different pass ahead of us.
Speaker 3: The Christian o'connall show.
Speaker 1: Podcast, none of us really enjoy going to the dentist.
Speaker 1: Oh god, no, it's vital, it's important, but none of
Speaker 1: us actively look forward to or enjoy it. I speak
Speaker 1: as somebody. This week we were having a team meeting
Speaker 1: after show, and then producer Kate and goes, oh, your
Speaker 1: wife has just messaged me and I'm like, what. My
Speaker 1: wife has all of your numbers, right, and she knows
Speaker 1: if I don't respond to messages, she will pull the
Speaker 1: power play, which will start pinging you lot, tell me
Speaker 1: to pick up my phone, and normally that's reserved, says,
Speaker 1: will only do that if it is actually love or death. Monday,
Speaker 1: it was about how Chris, that's what she goes by
Speaker 1: the way, tow Chris, he's got a tender appointment. He
Speaker 1: hasn't done the old reply one to confirm. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: however I won. Ultimately I moved it till next week.
Speaker 5: With that one.
Speaker 1: Just still got some play. However, someone in this conversation
Speaker 1: hasn't been to a dentist in six years, Alex.
Speaker 6: Six long years.
Speaker 1: First of all, free range shocking, and you've been on
Speaker 1: You've been on TV with the shiniest fines on TV,
Speaker 1: Carl Stefanovich, have you got there with six years?
Speaker 6: I'm a diligent flosser.
Speaker 1: He's when you floss a couple of days before you
Speaker 1: go and see the dentists. That's only going next Tuesday,
Speaker 1: I guess. So I've started flossing. It's back in. It's
Speaker 1: like planking and the ice bocket challenge.
Speaker 6: I floss at least once a day, sometimes twice a day.
Speaker 6: Get out of it. Don't believe you makes the difference.
Speaker 6: And I went to the dentist yesterday, as you say,
Speaker 6: for the first time in six years, and they were
Speaker 6: pretty impressed.
Speaker 1: I got to say, did they insist because obviously so
Speaker 1: you're a new client, very new client. So do they
Speaker 1: insist on doing the X ray? Yes?
Speaker 6: They did.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's the instant. There's a holiday, there's the
Speaker 1: stinging for the X ray.
Speaker 6: They may or may not have sold me the invisile line.
Speaker 5: That's very expensive.
Speaker 6: Yeah, between five and ten thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: Yeah, in six years, they're going to make their money
Speaker 1: out of you. They literally now wonder They're like, oh yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: we're really impressed that what we can earn from you.
Speaker 1: So the X ray three hundred bucks just to have
Speaker 1: a look, if there's any other way we can have
Speaker 1: a look around, not just the invisible teeth, but the
Speaker 1: invisible bits and the rout work. We don't worry about that,
Speaker 1: no one can see it. And then in visi.
Speaker 4: Line, Yeah, braces at your age.
Speaker 1: Well, he feels like the sort of thing a school
Speaker 1: buddy used to say a train track.
Speaker 6: Face they move, Mickey, your teeth have moved.
Speaker 1: Yeah, all of our teeth move overnight.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I had no idea.
Speaker 4: Do they do they go?
Speaker 1: Where do they go?
Speaker 6: Where they too? What are they doing?
Speaker 1: Actually a good question?
Speaker 6: Where? But they did make me feel a little bit
Speaker 6: better because I felt a bit embarrassed. I said, Oh, oh,
Speaker 6: I haven't been in six years.
Speaker 1: Oh, don't worry, don't worry. We're going to go after you.
Speaker 1: K Kachin.
Speaker 6: He said to me, We've had people in there that
Speaker 6: in here that haven't been the dentist in twenty years.
Speaker 1: Coloro fans.
Speaker 6: Twenty years years? Oh, come on, just say that to
Speaker 6: make me feel better. Or have they really not been
Speaker 6: in twenty years?
Speaker 7: It is surprising for especially like someone in TV. Yes,
Speaker 7: six years, aren't the This is like your money maker?
Speaker 1: Like them?
Speaker 5: How do you get away?
Speaker 1: You're up to date.
Speaker 6: It's lots of flossing. But like kids, kids have meant
Speaker 6: that I just haven't had time to get to the
Speaker 6: dentists really, and I haven't. That's that's the truth of it.
Speaker 1: So what are are you going to do in visually? Well?
Speaker 6: No, I got home and I said to Bunny I'm like, hey,
Speaker 6: and she's like, what's good of cost? Well, between five
Speaker 6: and teen grand No, No, that's ridiculous.
Speaker 1: That is every married conversation. My wife in Visiline, the
Speaker 1: two girls in Visiline. You guess you didn't do me
Speaker 1: because I like too much. The anyone who's on screen here,
Speaker 1: what are students need?
Speaker 6: They've got great teeth.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they got young in his teeth, the teeth in
Speaker 1: the world.
Speaker 3: The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1: A couple of days ago, we had a great call
Speaker 1: from somebody who used to work at Harrod's, most famous
Speaker 1: department stores in the world in London, and Princess Dana
Speaker 1: was in and causing a and this is the coolest words,
Speaker 1: not mine, a kerfuffle on the third floor. And I
Speaker 1: love the word kerfuffle. And then my ears picked up.
Speaker 1: I heard Patsy saying the news.
Speaker 8: Just now, a kerfuffle within the coalition.
Speaker 1: Kafuffles can break out anywhere in Harrod's in the It
Speaker 1: was in the children's Stide department as well. Princess Diana
Speaker 1: was causing a kerfuffle trying to return.
Speaker 8: Something there fall within the coalition.
Speaker 1: It's happening in the coalition. That is a perfect storm.
Speaker 1: By the way, coalitions, isn't it for kerfuffles?
Speaker 5: Great place.
Speaker 1: So kerfuffle a mild disturbance, Well, no, which is more severe?
Speaker 1: Which is milder? Is brew haha? Lower down on what
Speaker 1: I call the ladder of escalation.
Speaker 7: I would definitely have it brew haha above a kerfuffle.
Speaker 7: A kerfuffle, you're right, like a mild disturbance.
Speaker 4: There's a bit of You can think of Benny Hill
Speaker 4: music when you think of kerfuffle.
Speaker 1: Yes, the word itself, the word itself is an innocent,
Speaker 1: fluffy word. Even kerfuffle almost like a fluff to it.
Speaker 1: For kerfuffle, Milley go, I think that's high at the top. Well,
Speaker 1: that's actually your domain. I think that you could easily
Speaker 1: have malay in a sporting environment when the players are fighting, yes, halftime,
Speaker 1: so you think about the most extreme form of team fighting.
Speaker 1: Isn't the old shirt pulling and pushing, which AFL players
Speaker 1: do a lot. It's the lamest thing. Yes, you saw
Speaker 1: it last last week was like are you either fighting
Speaker 1: or you're not. There's a lot of that, but nothing happened.
Speaker 1: When I first saw it was, oh my god. The
Speaker 1: Empires do anything because it's just that shirty.
Speaker 5: It's a bit of tugging.
Speaker 1: Shirt ice hockey, though shirt goes over the head. I
Speaker 1: suppose they don't train for that move.
Speaker 6: Shirt over the head.
Speaker 1: And then a couple of that is that's a melie.
Speaker 6: That's why, and the references let them go.
Speaker 1: Exactly would you want to break them up? Your massive
Speaker 1: apes punching each other on ice skates with those big
Speaker 1: boxing gloves.
Speaker 7: They take the helmets off and everyone clears.
Speaker 1: It will go on for like a minute. And I
Speaker 1: noticed that they scrout each other like throwing hooks and everything.
Speaker 5: That's a brew.
Speaker 1: Ha, No, that's a melie.
Speaker 5: One on one.
Speaker 7: I would say, a malie, you need at least three
Speaker 7: or four people, you kin'd have a malie mellow melle.
Speaker 1: French.
Speaker 6: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't think that's I don't think that's an English
Speaker 1: derivative world. I think it's the same with contretemp French.
Speaker 5: It is French.
Speaker 1: I knew it was.
Speaker 4: But a meloe is like an old fashioned stacks on.
Speaker 1: A polite way is another great one.
Speaker 6: Yes, no one's getting seriously heard. It's just a punch on.
Speaker 1: That's fisticuffs. Does that even mean fisticuffs. What's the cuffing?
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 4: Just back then, there is that where you're pushing back
Speaker 4: your cuffs of use you.
Speaker 1: It was I bet you're right back when when you
Speaker 1: would roll up the gentleman's.
Speaker 6: Were on, or you're in a country pub and you're like, oh,
Speaker 6: there's a blue on.
Speaker 1: The one I I did love when I moved to
Speaker 1: this Country's punch ont that no, I don't have in
Speaker 1: the UK. Took me to realize what it was, but
Speaker 1: it's quite easy to guess as a punch. And it's
Speaker 1: on somebody with brown snake, carpet snake, tasty cheese. It's
Speaker 1: that children name things in Australia. It's that snake called
Speaker 1: brown snake. Yeah, because it's brown one. It's in carpets,
Speaker 1: carpet snake. Right, okay, what's that nice cheese called tasty cheese? Alright? Okay?
Speaker 1: All right? So we had to try and plot the
Speaker 1: ladder of escalation. What's the most extreme version, what's got
Speaker 1: the most energy, what's the most violent?
Speaker 7: Do you reckon malay? But what about pandemonium? Does pandemonium
Speaker 7: go below?
Speaker 1: But you wouldn't say that about a fight it's more verbal.
Speaker 7: Yeah, more like a Black Friday sale, like trampling or
Speaker 7: something like yes, that's pandemo.
Speaker 1: Yes, okay, or probably it's called pando here.
Speaker 6: So the top, we're doing one at the top hubbub.
Speaker 5: There's a hubbub going on.
Speaker 1: That's the most mild form hubbub, and then it goes
Speaker 1: up to brew. Haha. What about another one of my
Speaker 1: favorite onesraka?
Speaker 6: That's second to me, isn't it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it sounds aggressive, doesn't even to say fraka today
Speaker 1: French again, yes, and which is odd because they avoid
Speaker 1: violence and it will cost actively flee it. Yes, that's
Speaker 1: probably why they have more words about this kind of
Speaker 1: stuff than anything counts. All right, So what ones are
Speaker 1: we missing on our ladder of escalation? So real? How
Speaker 1: does it work a moment going from the least mild
Speaker 1: form of a disturbance, We've.
Speaker 7: Got hubbub, then kerfuffle, then brew haha, getting.
Speaker 1: See I think kerfuffle is above brew haha. Yeah, we
Speaker 1: actually have. I just Rio was using. It's the only
Speaker 1: use of it this year. We're supposed to use it
Speaker 1: to plan the show. We have a giant white board
Speaker 1: in the studio which is used the first time in
Speaker 1: twenty twenty five to plot my Ladder of escalation.
Speaker 7: Fromfuffle pandemonium, raka and then Mela.
Speaker 1: Why have you got to decide? Hella blue? Is that out?
Speaker 5: Hulla blo? I'm not sure where it goes? What's a
Speaker 5: hullab hang on?
Speaker 1: I've seen the other bomb there not plotted ruckus?
Speaker 5: Yes, bring the ruckus?
Speaker 1: I think ruckus? Is this too? That's w w yes, yeah,
Speaker 1: the shirt pudding. There's nothing going to happen here. That's
Speaker 1: a ruckus and a who ha who.
Speaker 7: Has pretty low I'm going a bit of a who
Speaker 7: ha Yeah, yes, verbal yeah.
Speaker 3: The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 1: Christian O'Connell Show. We're trying to plot for once and
Speaker 1: for all the ladder of escalation. When does it go
Speaker 1: from a mild disturbance and suddenly before you your very eyes,
Speaker 1: there's a deadly kerfuffle. Name of a book, by the way,
Speaker 1: I just realized by the comedian Tony and very very funny.
Speaker 1: But it's called deadly kerfuffle. Such a great, very Tony
Speaker 1: Martin esque phrase, that deadly kerfuffle. They don't belong together.
Speaker 1: There's something deadly about a kerfuffle. Was it? Kafuffle was
Speaker 1: in passies news today?
Speaker 8: A kafuffle within the coalition?
Speaker 1: One of you mentioned it today. This week on the
Speaker 1: show to do with the store about the late Princess Dinah.
Speaker 9: There was a big kerfuffle on the third floor. Context
Speaker 9: back in the day, I worked in hers, I lived
Speaker 9: in London, and I was in the customer complaints department
Speaker 9: and there was a big kafuffle on the third floor,
Speaker 9: which was where the toys were, and it was Princess
Speaker 9: Diana and I stood next door to her and she
Speaker 9: bought a big tedvy bear for Harry and a train
Speaker 9: set for William.
Speaker 1: I never found out whether she was causing the kafuffle.
Speaker 1: Who Yes, we're never going to know, really are we nice?
Speaker 1: So many great unanswered questions about Diana, and one of
Speaker 1: the biggest ones is about the kerfuffle on the third floor. Yes,
Speaker 1: she got the teddy bear, but why were you up
Speaker 1: there causing a kafuffle in the first place. So this
Speaker 1: week on the show, it's kerfuffle week.
Speaker 8: Kerfuffle within the Coalition.
Speaker 1: Christian, where does Shnanigan's go? Shangans isn't on the land
Speaker 1: of escimation. That's more mucking around.

Speaker 1: Yeah, that's horse that's tom foolery, yes, yeah, yes, yeah, Christian?
Speaker 1: What about what about skull duggery? That's more, that's the
Speaker 1: ladder of Macavelian activities. Skullduggery? Is it? I've never said
Speaker 1: that word. I've read it so many times. I've always
Speaker 1: I hope wonder I'm in a Macavelian situation where I
Speaker 1: need to say anyone else for the whiff of Macavelian activities?
Speaker 1: Right now? Wasn't he a person?
Speaker 5: Yes, yes, I wrote a book.
Speaker 1: Wasn't he a political strategist?
Speaker 6: An evil one?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Evil? Down with Maavell? Apparently right now we're talking
Speaker 1: about the ladder of a scalation. So at the moment, rio,
Speaker 1: how is it going from mild to the most severe?
Speaker 1: All right?
Speaker 5: Right at the bottom we've got a whu ha. Then
Speaker 5: you move up towards a.
Speaker 7: Hubbub hubbub sorry, aw haha, a kerfuffle, a pandemonium frakka,
Speaker 7: and then we end with a melea.
Speaker 1: A lot of people want to know where we are
Speaker 1: on argie bargie great great? And you know what is
Speaker 1: these some of these words aren't going to last many
Speaker 1: more generations. You don't hear a lot of the TikTok generation.

Speaker 1: Are there any reals for archie bargies? Where's argie bargie?

Speaker 9: There was a big kerfuffle on the third floor.
Speaker 1: Watch kafuff on the third floor, Murder on the dance
Speaker 1: floor on the third floor, alright, real, what have we
Speaker 1: got so far? All right?
Speaker 7: Going from least serious to most serious, we start with
Speaker 7: poo ha yep, Barnie hubbub brew haha, kerfuffle, pandemonium, frakka fracas, frakkaka.
Speaker 5: Mela oh and donny Brook right at the top.
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, now you just found out. Then what is
Speaker 1: the origin of the word donny Brook? Obviously a suburb
Speaker 1: here and it's a altercation as well, but the origin
Speaker 1: is an Australian.
Speaker 5: Though, no, it's from Dublin.
Speaker 7: It comes from the donny Brook Fair, held near Dumblin
Speaker 7: in medieval times. The fair was infamous for whiskey fueled
Speaker 7: chaos and fight.
Speaker 1: I've never been to an Irish wedding where it hasn't
Speaker 1: been a fight between family members. Yeah no, no, yeah, yes,
Speaker 1: emotions and whiskey runs high and guinness. Yeah, so, I
Speaker 1: asked Rio. So we genuinely have on the white board

Speaker 1: ladder of escalation going from who had the bottom to
Speaker 1: malay at the top at slash Donnybrook, I said Toria Ticke.
Speaker 1: A photo this feed it into the smartish language learning
Speaker 1: machine in the world. Chat GPT ask it what does
Speaker 1: it think?
Speaker 5: All right?
Speaker 7: Firstly, it said pandemonium leans more towards chaotic uproar than conflict,
Speaker 7: so it actually take pandemonium off the board altogether.
Speaker 1: I don't the fact that chat GPT has has a
Speaker 1: take on this. This is important. I know about this stuff.
Speaker 1: I've been fed it. It's by human masters. Fair enough
Speaker 1: to mild.
Speaker 7: It agrees who ha is the lowest. It then would
Speaker 7: flip hubbub and brew haha. So it wants to go
Speaker 7: who ha Hubbub brew haha, Kerfuffle.
Speaker 5: Then Barney, which we've got second, wants to put in
Speaker 5: the middle.
Speaker 1: Really yes, above Kafuffle, Barnie above Kerfuffle. Yes, said about
Speaker 1: a bluey, same thing.
Speaker 7: A blue I haven't put bluey in, but it's got
Speaker 7: a fraka, then a biff, then a melee, then a Donnybrook.
Speaker 5: So it agrees mostly with it. It's just Hubbub and Barney.
Speaker 1: Okay, all right, that's that for now. All right, we're

Speaker 5: that morning tea?
Speaker 1: Or that's nine am?
Speaker 4: Turned me up.
Speaker 1: Rotine power punch. Yes, now he used to show we
Speaker 1: had an email and to be back to school. And
Speaker 1: I don't know if this they even stilled to this now?
Speaker 1: But do you remember when there used to be a
Speaker 1: class pet terrible idea, and then young psychos were allowed
Speaker 1: to look after over the weekend and hilarity did not
Speaker 1: ensue Normally that thing was lost or worse than that
Speaker 1: perished over the weekend. But it used to be a
Speaker 1: well known thing, didn't it? A class would have you know?
Speaker 1: It'd be something like a guinea pig. Did you guys
Speaker 1: ever get to look after it? I was never trusted
Speaker 1: with it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we had mice in year seven lucky parents. For science,
Speaker 4: we had to do mice. We had these white mice
Speaker 4: and we looked after it was for the whole year,
Speaker 4: and we had.
Speaker 1: About last of simpletons.
Speaker 6: Whole year.
Speaker 1: Must have been a bunch of thickies that could like,
Speaker 1: oh we got a special thing and just grab that.
Speaker 1: Probably a rat, Actually that was just a big ass.
Speaker 1: Oh no, no, that's Marsel the mouse, big thick tail,
Speaker 1: foot long rodent.
Speaker 4: They lived in this big sort of kind of house
Speaker 4: outhouse off the science wing at high school, and it's stank.
Speaker 1: Do you remember the year You're right, the science room
Speaker 1: or the science bo had that little outhouse where they
Speaker 1: would conduct weird experiments in there, probably for nefarious governmental agencies.
Speaker 1: I thought, you know, they're up to they're up to
Speaker 1: shnanigans in the skullduggery is one went on with those
Speaker 1: mice in there.
Speaker 6: More than just our teaching.
Speaker 4: Mister Novak used to go in there and have a
Speaker 4: durry at lunchtime and have a cigarette in amongst the smell.
Speaker 1: All the all the teachers right in the eighties all smoked. Jimmy,
Speaker 1: you bore past our teacher's room. They had that room
Speaker 1: where they were just crying there and shrink heavily. And
Speaker 1: also they didn't like you. We used to always like
Speaker 1: walk pie and just stare at the mic, and they
Speaker 1: used to go berserk, like bang the window, stop looking again.
Speaker 1: They just needed that break. And it was like thick
Speaker 1: with and also not just cigarette smoke, like full task cigarettes. Pipes.
Speaker 1: There's no teachers now smoking pipes, but they were like,
Speaker 1: especially the older teachers, like history teachers.
Speaker 4: It was always the history teacher had a pipe, big
Speaker 4: old thick pipe. Yeah, just like.
Speaker 1: Big old stoney there. Yeah, our one, right, I used
Speaker 1: to smoke a pipe during class, so we do Wilson.
Speaker 6: To make a salient point.
Speaker 1: It would take it out and points the mouth and
Speaker 1: I don't see me afterwards chewing on that billows cancer
Speaker 1: ST's out of.
Speaker 6: The pipe between their teeth.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we had mice.
Speaker 1: What did you have?
Speaker 12: We didn't go We didn't have any because being in
Speaker 12: each other around the old pet there again in the
Speaker 12: dorms town, being in the country, I don't think they
Speaker 12: really trusted it a class pit.
Speaker 6: No, we didn't have any. We had lots of snakes
Speaker 6: in the in the in the school.
Speaker 1: We were talking about the other day to take a
Speaker 1: pet snake open, especially brown.
Speaker 6: Look at this snake. At school, probably I reckon once
Speaker 6: a month at least, but no, we never had a pet.
Speaker 1: Did you ever get taken back? Imagine you were a
Speaker 1: prefect like Patsy.
Speaker 5: I think the pets were. I mean I was school
Speaker 5: vice captain.
Speaker 1: But debate captain yet.
Speaker 5: But I think it was getting phased out.
Speaker 7: I'd love to know if people still do it, because
Speaker 7: we didn't have any pets by the time I was
Speaker 7: at school.
Speaker 5: You weren't, just didn't.
Speaker 1: You can't imagine it's allowed to do now. It seems
Speaker 1: crazy and rightly so. Animals have rights, and one of
Speaker 1: them is young psychos aka kids don't look after us
Speaker 1: at the weekend. People that can't look after themselves entrusted
Speaker 1: with a school pet is a terrible idea.
Speaker 3: Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1: Thinking You Back to School? Two more wmen. We used
Speaker 1: to have class pets, an actual animal and then wait
Speaker 1: for it. The kicker is we were allowed to take
Speaker 1: it home. So I remember actually sometimes during the summer holidays,
Speaker 1: someone would have it for a couple of weeks, and
Speaker 1: that you never saw that animal ever again.
Speaker 6: It was ding rolled up like, hey, why there is
Speaker 6: that rabbit.
Speaker 1: By the way, they weren't even asked the school were like,
Speaker 1: and that's the end of that problem there, because one
Speaker 1: of the old thickies has got it, you know, like
Speaker 1: from and many Lenny, we've got a real life Lenny, I.
Speaker 6: Don't hurt a rabbit.
Speaker 1: Belinda's on the line, Blenda, you were teacher.
Speaker 9: Yes I am. I'm a primary school teacher.
Speaker 1: Great, Just so we're looking for this morning. So do
Speaker 1: you still have class pets?
Speaker 11: No?
Speaker 9: Up until five oh, excuse me, Up until five years ago,
Speaker 9: I had four blue tongue lizards and quite a lot
Speaker 9: of spiny leaf stick insects, right right, all.
Speaker 1: Right, And so there's no more of this anymore. Kids
Speaker 1: getting to look after over the weekend.
Speaker 9: Well, they used to feed them during class and take
Speaker 9: them out. They'd stick the spiny leaf stick insects on
Speaker 9: their pencil cases or they call up their arms on
Speaker 9: their heads, and when the stick insects multiplied, they would
Speaker 9: be able to take them home and pet them. Right,
Speaker 9: because when they multiplied, you'd get hundreds.
Speaker 1: I guess they's some of the rabbits as well. Linda,
Speaker 1: Thank you very much, and cool, have a good day.
Speaker 9: You two buye now.
Speaker 1: Tell me about Sean Dooley. You've got very excited just now. Yes,
Speaker 1: is making a cup of tea. It came back in
Speaker 1: the studio and the rio producer was very excited. Who
Speaker 1: is Sean Doody.
Speaker 7: This is the Sean Dooley. He's the chief bird nerd
Speaker 7: of Australia. Yes, and he used to have a segment
Speaker 7: I believe called Squawkback on ABC Radio.
Speaker 1: Bring it Back, Bring it Back, Sean. Just a man,
Speaker 1: I need to speak to Sean. Welcome to the show.
Speaker 11: Thank you Christians.
Speaker 1: So you're a fellow bird lover. You an ornithologist?
Speaker 11: No, no, but i am. I work with BirdLife Australia
Speaker 11: who run the Aussie Bird Count every year, which is
Speaker 11: just about to kick off in October. So I'm under
Speaker 11: bridge between the bird nerds and the general public.
Speaker 1: You're a translator, yes, right, I gotcha.
Speaker 11: I speak bird and.
Speaker 1: Love it Sean. What is the bird Count then? What
Speaker 1: is that?
Speaker 11: Yeah, it's a thing we do a BirdLife Australia every
Speaker 11: year where we get people to count the download the
Speaker 11: bird Count app and count birds in their backyard.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, we got we're talking okay, the listeners
Speaker 1: to do this.
Speaker 11: Yeah, Yeah, we'd love it because it feels in a
Speaker 11: huge gap of knowledge for us at BirdLife because we
Speaker 11: don't know enough about our common birds. We focus generally
Speaker 11: on rare birds, and so this really helps. But also
Speaker 11: it means that people can work out what the hell
Speaker 11: it is it's making that noise in.
Speaker 1: That that's me. That's me today, Shawn, You're just right.
Speaker 11: I need this app I do.
Speaker 1: What's the app? Because I know there's probably a lot
Speaker 1: of people listening that fancy doing this and if you've
Speaker 1: got kids and family, what a great thing to do
Speaker 1: teaching about the ones of the natural world. What's the app?
Speaker 11: Yeah, it's called the Ossie Bird Count App and it's
Speaker 11: the registrations have just open so you can download it,
Speaker 11: but you can't count until October. But there's a little
Speaker 11: feature on the app which you can put the details
Speaker 11: of the bird you see, like its size, shape and color,
Speaker 11: and it'll give you some suggestions with photos of what
Speaker 11: that bird might actually be that's driving your nuts in
Speaker 11: your backyard.
Speaker 1: Yeah, this is me right now? Then? What blow Sean
Speaker 1: is this? It's three parts to it. It's all day long,
Speaker 1: twenty four seven. It goes to work at about five
Speaker 1: thirty am. What is that shown.
Speaker 11: Uncanny? Is your just what your impersonation is? I think
Speaker 11: with the tonia using I reckon it's actually a pied curreler,
Speaker 11: which is like a member of the magpie family, but
Speaker 11: it's a bit bigger with a yellow eye and much
Speaker 11: more black. And they people who've been to the snow
Speaker 11: would know it because it used to sort of only
Speaker 11: be up in the mountains, but they've migrated into the
Speaker 11: cities in like Sydney in the eighties and nineties, then
Speaker 11: Melbourne in the last twenty years. And I reckon that
