WEBVTT - MINI: Double Thumbs Up

0:00:01.120 --> 0:00:02.040
<v Speaker 1>Got anything good.

0:00:02.680 --> 0:00:10.479
<v Speaker 2>Hey, this is the Christian O'Connell show podcast. Good morning

0:00:10.560 --> 0:00:14.080
<v Speaker 2>jack morning guys, Good morning Patsy. Is everyone excited about

0:00:14.120 --> 0:00:16.120
<v Speaker 2>their weekends? What have you guys got on? Jackie boy?

0:00:16.160 --> 0:00:18.439
<v Speaker 3>What are you up to after the show. I don't

0:00:18.440 --> 0:00:20.800
<v Speaker 3>know if you'd call this exciting. My job is to

0:00:20.960 --> 0:00:25.639
<v Speaker 3>find a zucchini spiralizer to make an alternative to noodles.

0:00:25.640 --> 0:00:27.720
<v Speaker 2>Oh my god, yeah, yeah, you're doing the low car

0:00:27.760 --> 0:00:30.600
<v Speaker 2>but yeah, we've got one of those. Be careful. They

0:00:30.640 --> 0:00:33.040
<v Speaker 2>are worse than a cheese grade at cutting in fingers.

0:00:33.120 --> 0:00:34.400
<v Speaker 3>I hate using the cheese graterer.

0:00:34.600 --> 0:00:37.440
<v Speaker 2>You have to reassemble and it's unassembling it to then

0:00:37.720 --> 0:00:41.400
<v Speaker 2>wash the thing because it spiralizes the zucchinis, And then

0:00:41.440 --> 0:00:43.680
<v Speaker 2>to clean it. It's a nightmare getting the little juice

0:00:43.680 --> 0:00:44.839
<v Speaker 2>and the pippy bits in it.

0:00:44.880 --> 0:00:47.479
<v Speaker 3>And is it worth it? Do they make a convincing noodle?

0:00:47.520 --> 0:00:50.360
<v Speaker 2>I have to say there's something really enjoyable about using

0:00:50.360 --> 0:00:54.080
<v Speaker 2>a spiralizer. Oh my word, Yeah, it's pleasurable. You do

0:00:54.120 --> 0:00:56.680
<v Speaker 2>the you sort of impale it on this circul thing

0:00:56.720 --> 0:00:58.880
<v Speaker 2>and then you're to crank the little handle. It's like

0:00:58.920 --> 0:01:01.360
<v Speaker 2>a kid's toy and then it goes into the blades

0:01:01.400 --> 0:01:05.119
<v Speaker 2>of death and it spiralizes it. It comes squirreling, scoiling, scoiling,

0:01:05.160 --> 0:01:09.200
<v Speaker 2>squalling out. I love doing it, but the cleanup is is,

0:01:09.280 --> 0:01:11.440
<v Speaker 2>really you will cut your fingers on it every time.

0:01:11.760 --> 0:01:13.720
<v Speaker 2>They're really dangering passy. What are you up to, mate?

0:01:13.720 --> 0:01:15.240
<v Speaker 4>Well, we're being very adult.

0:01:15.319 --> 0:01:18.280
<v Speaker 1>Tomorrow we're finally going to see a financial adviser over

0:01:18.319 --> 0:01:21.160
<v Speaker 1>your side of town. Actually, so I'm sort of like.

<v Speaker 3>Lor out of trouble. Do I not have any finance guys.

0:01:24.080 --> 0:01:28.039

<v Speaker 2>meeting with the financial planer this week. It's very it's depressing.

<v Speaker 2>You're like very clear that I can never retire.

0:01:45.200 --> 0:01:45.720
<v Speaker 4>That's the thing.

0:01:45.880 --> 0:01:49.240

<v Speaker 2>Those conversations are heavy, aren't they.

<v Speaker 4>I know, and we haven't done them.

0:02:17.080 --> 0:02:19.200
<v Speaker 2>Before we start thinking how much can we live?

0:02:21.000 --> 0:02:24.079

0:02:52.840 --> 0:02:54.440

<v Speaker 2>go where you'll have the misordie right, It is a

0:02:56.400 --> 0:02:58.200

0:02:58.200 --> 0:03:00.440
<v Speaker 2>go to another country, especially place that cam in ty

0:03:00.560 --> 0:03:03.160

0:03:10.240 --> 0:03:12.520
<v Speaker 3>No, you gotta let them be adults.

0:03:12.600 --> 0:03:14.640
<v Speaker 2>You know that's what I had. But I'll tell you what,

0:03:14.720 --> 0:03:18.000
<v Speaker 2>it's really really really hard, really hard, and there's been

0:03:18.040 --> 0:03:19.919
<v Speaker 2>a part of me that hasn't been able to relax

0:03:20.000 --> 0:03:22.480
<v Speaker 2>until it's like them coming back to nest Right the

0:03:22.480 --> 0:03:24.959

<v Speaker 2>the night I wake up and night right now. Yeah,

0:03:31.080 --> 0:03:33.040
<v Speaker 2>And also some of the places she's been staying like

<v Speaker 2>we did when we go traveling, they're like ten or

0:03:35.360 --> 0:03:37.240
<v Speaker 2>eleven dollars, right.

0:03:37.120 --> 0:03:40.440
<v Speaker 3>And it just like what it would have been. Okay,

0:03:40.840 --> 0:03:41.840
<v Speaker 3>they're going to be safe.

0:03:41.880 --> 0:03:43.920
<v Speaker 2>I just wanted to be safe. But they have had

0:03:43.960 --> 0:03:46.200

<v Speaker 2>get into this week's double thumbs Up. This is where me,

0:04:14.640 --> 0:04:16.560
<v Speaker 2>Jack and Pat's talk about the things we're into at

0:04:16.600 --> 0:04:19.799
<v Speaker 2>the moment, what we're enjoying and what's lighting us up. Patsy,

0:04:19.839 --> 0:04:20.920
<v Speaker 2>What's I for you? Yeah?

0:04:21.120 --> 0:04:25.080
<v Speaker 1>Really a great book to read, especially at the moment

0:04:25.240 --> 0:04:28.800
<v Speaker 1>with the rise of anti Semitism in the community. It's

0:04:28.800 --> 0:04:32.279
<v Speaker 1>a beautiful book by Eddie jacku the Happiest man on Earth.

0:04:32.360 --> 0:04:34.240
<v Speaker 4>It's not a brand new book. It's been around for

0:04:34.279 --> 0:04:34.800
<v Speaker 4>a few years.

0:04:34.960 --> 0:04:36.480
<v Speaker 2>I've read that, Yeah, I read it quite a few years.

0:04:36.480 --> 0:04:37.839
<v Speaker 4>He was living in Sydney.

0:04:37.880 --> 0:04:42.640
<v Speaker 1>He's passed away now, but he wrote this most spectacular

0:04:42.680 --> 0:04:44.279
<v Speaker 1>book about his time.

0:04:45.640 --> 0:04:47.679
<v Speaker 4>As a prisoner of war as a child.

0:04:47.960 --> 0:04:51.680
<v Speaker 1>And yes, it's a very grim subject obviously, but it

0:04:51.800 --> 0:04:54.120
<v Speaker 1>is so enlightening and what it is is it's a

0:04:54.200 --> 0:04:57.120
<v Speaker 1>story of forgiveness in what was hell on Earth and

0:04:57.160 --> 0:05:02.080
<v Speaker 1>also finding happiness in you know, such a terrible situation

0:05:02.320 --> 0:05:06.240
<v Speaker 1>and how we make our own decision to be happy

0:05:06.520 --> 0:05:07.360
<v Speaker 1>in any situation.

0:05:07.440 --> 0:05:08.520
<v Speaker 4>I think it's beautiful.

0:05:08.520 --> 0:05:09.920
<v Speaker 2>It's so, it's a great reading.

0:05:10.080 --> 0:05:12.480
<v Speaker 4>Oh it's beautiful. I'll read it again. I know Relent

0:05:12.560 --> 0:05:13.320
<v Speaker 4>Whips someone.

0:05:13.120 --> 0:05:15.120
<v Speaker 2>Recommended to me when I moved here, actually when I

0:05:15.120 --> 0:05:17.400
<v Speaker 2>was looking for great Australian books and someone recommend that.

0:05:17.440 --> 0:05:20.760
<v Speaker 2>And really it's an incredible read, very powerful outlook, such.

0:05:20.560 --> 0:05:22.400
<v Speaker 4>A beautiful outlook. After all he came through.

0:05:22.680 --> 0:05:25.680
<v Speaker 1>The other thing that we've watched over our break was

0:05:25.680 --> 0:05:29.000
<v Speaker 1>a six triple eight on Netflix and it's based on

0:05:29.040 --> 0:05:29.679
<v Speaker 1>a true story.

0:05:29.720 --> 0:05:32.200
<v Speaker 4>It's based on the story of these.

0:05:32.040 --> 0:05:36.360
<v Speaker 1>Women who were the biggest at the first and the

0:05:36.400 --> 0:05:40.719
<v Speaker 1>biggest squadron of women to serve overseas in World War Two,

0:05:41.520 --> 0:05:44.520
<v Speaker 1>and Oprah has helped produce it. She also has a

0:05:44.600 --> 0:05:46.799
<v Speaker 1>role in the film. And it's a story of these

0:05:47.040 --> 0:05:50.440
<v Speaker 1>women who were sent overseas essentially to sort the mail.

0:05:50.520 --> 0:05:53.400
<v Speaker 1>They had this backlog of mail in World War Two

0:05:53.839 --> 0:05:56.159
<v Speaker 1>which was such a lifeline for the troops and kept

0:05:56.160 --> 0:05:58.960
<v Speaker 1>their spirits up to get you know, packages from Home

0:05:59.000 --> 0:06:01.520
<v Speaker 1>and Word for Home and they just had this massive

0:06:01.560 --> 0:06:05.560
<v Speaker 1>backlog and they sort of sorted through like something like

0:06:05.640 --> 0:06:09.360
<v Speaker 1>seventeen million items of mail in three months and they

0:06:09.360 --> 0:06:12.720
<v Speaker 1>set up base in Scotland. And it's absolutely gorgeous and

0:06:12.839 --> 0:06:17.760
<v Speaker 1>it's a story about really discrimination that they faced as

0:06:17.839 --> 0:06:21.320
<v Speaker 1>women and as black women, and it's it's really inspiring.

0:06:21.360 --> 0:06:24.000
<v Speaker 1>We sat and watched it with Audrey, which if you've

0:06:24.040 --> 0:06:25.320
<v Speaker 1>got a daughter with the girl.

0:06:25.240 --> 0:06:27.280
<v Speaker 2>Shara and my wife Sarah and the girls they were

0:06:27.240 --> 0:06:29.400
<v Speaker 2>watching together. I was with a friend. I came back

0:06:29.440 --> 0:06:32.040
<v Speaker 2>in the evening. They were all in tears. Yeah. Now

0:06:32.080 --> 0:06:33.320
<v Speaker 2>they were really moved by it.

0:06:33.400 --> 0:06:35.600
<v Speaker 1>Yes, Yeah, it was beautiful and these women talk about

0:06:35.640 --> 0:06:38.280
<v Speaker 1>the discrimination. Two of them were killed in the line

0:06:38.279 --> 0:06:42.919
<v Speaker 1>of duty and they weren't even acknowledged by the services

0:06:42.920 --> 0:06:46.400
<v Speaker 1>by the American Army. There was no funeral, no grave site,

0:06:46.520 --> 0:06:49.680
<v Speaker 1>and they had to pass the hat around to pay

0:06:49.680 --> 0:06:50.600
<v Speaker 1>for these women's help.

0:06:50.640 --> 0:06:53.240
<v Speaker 2>You, but the story is being remembered now.

0:06:53.279 --> 0:06:56.040
<v Speaker 4>Yes, and Oprah's had a massive part in it. It's

0:06:56.080 --> 0:06:57.040
<v Speaker 4>a beautiful story.

0:06:57.160 --> 0:07:00.600
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. They absolutely loved it. Yeah, yeah, I heard the story.

0:07:00.600 --> 0:07:01.560
<v Speaker 2>I didn't know anything.

0:07:01.279 --> 0:07:03.520
<v Speaker 1>About it, did we We were just flicking through and

0:07:03.560 --> 0:07:05.839
<v Speaker 1>I thought, and we wanted something to watch with Audrey,

0:07:05.839 --> 0:07:08.800
<v Speaker 1>and I thought, this looks really great and it was

0:07:08.920 --> 0:07:11.320
<v Speaker 1>so not only if you've just got a daughter, just

0:07:11.440 --> 0:07:12.360
<v Speaker 1>everyone will enjoy it.

0:07:12.360 --> 0:07:13.680
<v Speaker 4>The six Triple eight on Netflix.

0:07:13.800 --> 0:07:15.560
<v Speaker 2>Great, thanks Pats. We'll take a break. When we come back,

0:07:15.560 --> 0:07:17.400
<v Speaker 2>we'll get into this week's double thumbs up for jacking

0:07:17.480 --> 0:07:22.040
<v Speaker 2>out The Christian O'Connell show podcast. All right, Jackie boy,

0:07:22.080 --> 0:07:23.640
<v Speaker 2>what have you? I know it's hard because you know

0:07:23.680 --> 0:07:25.600
<v Speaker 2>you've got a three year old, so you haven't got

0:07:25.600 --> 0:07:27.680
<v Speaker 2>as much time to watch TV and stream.

0:07:27.800 --> 0:07:30.560
<v Speaker 3>It's not even about the TV. It's now that anytime

0:07:30.560 --> 0:07:35.320
<v Speaker 3>the TV's on, we're watching Disney for Frozen, Moanna. It's

0:07:35.400 --> 0:07:37.440
<v Speaker 3>always the same ones as well. The Grinch. We would

0:07:37.440 --> 0:07:39.960
<v Speaker 3>have watched. They made an animated version of The Grinch

0:07:40.240 --> 0:07:42.760
<v Speaker 3>where Bennette Cumberbatch is the Grinch.

0:07:42.800 --> 0:07:44.280
<v Speaker 2>Oh wow, great voice.

0:07:44.920 --> 0:07:47.480
<v Speaker 3>Good movie. But once you've watched it one hundred times,

0:07:47.520 --> 0:07:50.560
<v Speaker 3>it's just again and again and again and again and again.

0:07:50.680 --> 0:07:51.920
<v Speaker 2>It's audmental cruel.

0:07:52.240 --> 0:07:56.760
<v Speaker 3>How do they not we've seen it happened Christmas?

0:07:56.760 --> 0:07:59.160
<v Speaker 2>Why do we want to watch again? Terrorist to talk,

0:07:59.280 --> 0:08:01.800
<v Speaker 2>It's just make them more those Keys movies again again again.

0:08:02.240 --> 0:08:05.760
<v Speaker 3>So I've had very little access to the TV TV,

0:08:05.800 --> 0:08:07.640
<v Speaker 3>but it means I've been picking up a lot of books.

0:08:07.640 --> 0:08:10.440
<v Speaker 3>I read one of my favorite books over Christmas, and

0:08:10.480 --> 0:08:14.440
<v Speaker 3>that was Say Nothing by Patrick Radden Keith. He's become

0:08:14.480 --> 0:08:16.720
<v Speaker 3>my new favorite author because I was also read Empire

0:08:16.760 --> 0:08:19.720
<v Speaker 3>of Pain last year. Empire of Pain was about the

0:08:19.760 --> 0:08:23.720
<v Speaker 3>opioid epidemic in America and the Sacla family who got

0:08:23.840 --> 0:08:26.720
<v Speaker 3>rich billionaires billions and billions of dollars, got rich of

0:08:27.120 --> 0:08:30.160
<v Speaker 3>a lot of devastation, and then he wrote this, this

0:08:30.360 --> 0:08:35.400
<v Speaker 3>true story about the IRA and the troubles in Northern Ireland. Man,

0:08:35.480 --> 0:08:38.520
<v Speaker 3>I had no idea for reading it. Right, I've read it.

0:08:39.160 --> 0:08:40.640
<v Speaker 3>I didn't know that you would have read someone of that.

0:08:40.720 --> 0:08:43.080
<v Speaker 3>It's an incredible story. I bet it's hard to believe.

0:08:43.200 --> 0:08:46.640
<v Speaker 3>It's impossible to believe. I really didn't know much about

0:08:46.640 --> 0:08:48.960
<v Speaker 3>the IRA at all, and I just can't believe that

0:08:49.000 --> 0:08:52.760
<v Speaker 3>it was like within like the generation before us, it

0:08:52.840 --> 0:08:53.880
<v Speaker 3>was within our time.

0:08:54.840 --> 0:08:58.280
<v Speaker 2>So I adapted it for TV. I saw that I

0:08:58.320 --> 0:09:01.679
<v Speaker 2>started watching this on Disney play Say Nothing. It is brilliant.

0:09:01.720 --> 0:09:04.880
<v Speaker 2>Hard watch it times to see it actually dramatized, but

0:09:04.960 --> 0:09:07.319
<v Speaker 2>it is brilliant It's outstanding, Yes, very good.

0:09:07.360 --> 0:09:10.000
<v Speaker 3>If you want a non fiction book that reads as

0:09:10.120 --> 0:09:13.280
<v Speaker 3>fast and it's page turning as a fiction, Patrick Radden

0:09:13.360 --> 0:09:15.719
<v Speaker 3>Keefe's amazing. It's called say Nothing.

0:09:15.800 --> 0:09:18.720
<v Speaker 2>Okay for Me? Then Bliss Last Weekend. It was transported

0:09:18.760 --> 0:09:22.079
<v Speaker 2>back to the nineties and the two thousands. Tom Green.

0:09:22.520 --> 0:09:25.160
<v Speaker 2>Tom Green. Without Tom Green, right, there's no punk, there's

0:09:25.160 --> 0:09:27.920
<v Speaker 2>no jackass. He was a real visionary. Right. There's a

0:09:27.920 --> 0:09:30.760
<v Speaker 2>brilliant documentary that he's made himself called this is the

0:09:30.760 --> 0:09:33.440
<v Speaker 2>Tom Green Documentary. You used to do a TV show

0:09:33.480 --> 0:09:35.560
<v Speaker 2>called The Tom Green Show, and it was a brilliant

0:09:35.640 --> 0:09:38.520
<v Speaker 2>visionary show. All that reaction stuff that now it's a

0:09:38.559 --> 0:09:40.240
<v Speaker 2>lot of the stuff we see on Instagram with the

0:09:40.280 --> 0:09:43.079
<v Speaker 2>kids are all making. He literally pioneered that. It was

0:09:43.120 --> 0:09:46.280
<v Speaker 2>like a demented letterman. The documentary, it's an hour and

0:09:46.320 --> 0:09:48.319
<v Speaker 2>a half. I'm a big fan of Tom Green. I

0:09:48.360 --> 0:09:51.560
<v Speaker 2>remember getting videos sent over from America of the early

0:09:51.640 --> 0:09:54.000
<v Speaker 2>days of his shows before he went to MTV.

0:09:55.960 --> 0:09:56.640
<v Speaker 3>Tom Green Show.

0:09:56.640 --> 0:09:58.240
<v Speaker 2>Do you remember that? So you remember? I can remember

0:09:58.240 --> 0:10:01.000
<v Speaker 2>at the top of the head the Pizza Undercutter. I

0:10:01.040 --> 0:10:03.720
<v Speaker 2>still watched that on YouTube. Now makes me cry. Enough

0:10:03.760 --> 0:10:05.480
<v Speaker 2>with the slut my bill that he made for his

0:10:05.559 --> 0:10:07.000
<v Speaker 2>mum and dad and woke them up in the middle

0:10:07.000 --> 0:10:08.840
<v Speaker 2>of the night. My bum is on the right, the

0:10:08.880 --> 0:10:11.160
<v Speaker 2>bum bum song, the bum bum song. We've got to

0:10:11.160 --> 0:10:13.760
<v Speaker 2>play it. The documentary is brilliant, so obviously didn't. He

0:10:13.760 --> 0:10:16.959
<v Speaker 2>marries Drew Barrymore, becomes a massive Hollywood star, and then

0:10:17.000 --> 0:10:19.120
<v Speaker 2>it all sorts to fall apart, and now he lives

0:10:19.120 --> 0:10:21.280
<v Speaker 2>on a farm. He sold his Hollywood home. He lives

0:10:21.320 --> 0:10:23.000
<v Speaker 2>on a farm back where he grew up in Canada.

0:10:23.200 --> 0:10:25.600
<v Speaker 2>Still a touring stand up all over and a brilliant

0:10:25.600 --> 0:10:27.800
<v Speaker 2>stand up and he's got a new special out actually

0:10:27.800 --> 0:10:30.840
<v Speaker 2>on Prime where the documentary is. It's a brilliant look

0:10:30.920 --> 0:10:33.679
<v Speaker 2>back at the nineties and two thousands. We all grew

0:10:33.760 --> 0:10:36.720
<v Speaker 2>up during that time and Tom Green was a real visionary.

0:10:36.760 --> 0:10:39.000
<v Speaker 2>It's nice to see his story being told and people

0:10:39.080 --> 0:10:40.360
<v Speaker 2>appreciating for how good he was.

0:10:40.440 --> 0:10:43.320
<v Speaker 3>People don't even realize he was at the forefront of

0:10:43.480 --> 0:10:47.720
<v Speaker 3>making your own big empire podcasting before there was Joe Rogan,

0:10:47.720 --> 0:10:48.360
<v Speaker 3>before there was much.

0:10:49.120 --> 0:10:51.680
<v Speaker 2>Joe was on it saying he came on, Tom did

0:10:51.679 --> 0:10:53.959
<v Speaker 2>a thing, he got he left MTV, and then he

0:10:54.080 --> 0:10:55.960
<v Speaker 2>realized that the internet was going to become a very

0:10:55.960 --> 0:10:59.040
<v Speaker 2>big thing, and so he created this thing called Webbovision.

0:10:59.360 --> 0:11:01.319
<v Speaker 2>He made a check show that sometimes I used to

0:11:01.360 --> 0:11:04.280
<v Speaker 2>love watching it. Some episodes would be four or five hours.

0:11:04.320 --> 0:11:07.280
<v Speaker 2>He built a chat show set in his house. Yeah,

0:11:07.400 --> 0:11:09.120
<v Speaker 2>paid for all the equipment, and you have guests on

0:11:09.160 --> 0:11:10.880
<v Speaker 2>and it was Rogan was a guest on it, and

0:11:10.960 --> 0:11:12.839
<v Speaker 2>Rogan was like, this is going to be a thing.

0:11:12.880 --> 0:11:14.079
<v Speaker 2>I want to I want to do something like this.

0:11:14.200 --> 0:11:16.480
<v Speaker 2>So he called it Webbovision, and of course that went

0:11:16.520 --> 0:11:19.520
<v Speaker 2>on to become podcasting. So the documentary is brilliant. It's

0:11:19.520 --> 0:11:21.360
<v Speaker 2>an hour and a half and it's a really great

0:11:21.400 --> 0:11:24.160
<v Speaker 2>story and there is so much nostalgia in there as well.

0:11:24.400 --> 0:11:27.240
<v Speaker 2>This is a Tom Tom Green documentary that's on Prime.

0:11:27.360 --> 0:11:29.400
<v Speaker 2>I love that. The other thing I started listening to

0:11:29.440 --> 0:11:34.520
<v Speaker 2>brilliant new podcast, The Telepathy Tapes. It is barely believable

0:11:34.520 --> 0:11:37.720
<v Speaker 2>what you're hearing. It's literally about that. It's incredible, The

0:11:37.720 --> 0:11:41.520
<v Speaker 2>Telepathy Tapes. And new favorite TV show, a medical drama

0:11:41.640 --> 0:11:44.240
<v Speaker 2>for grown ups. If you loved Er and I loved

0:11:44.320 --> 0:11:46.439
<v Speaker 2>Ear the Night, it's a groundbreaking TV show. One of

0:11:46.480 --> 0:11:48.840
<v Speaker 2>the stars of it was Noah Wiley. He's in this

0:11:48.920 --> 0:11:51.240
<v Speaker 2>new show called the Pit You've seen the adverts around,

0:11:51.360 --> 0:11:54.160
<v Speaker 2>has been nominated for loads of Emmys. It's fifteen hour

0:11:54.240 --> 0:11:57.120
<v Speaker 2>long episodes, and it covers a fifteen hour shift in

0:11:57.200 --> 0:12:00.720
<v Speaker 2>an American public Health system hospital. It's a miss. It

0:12:00.840 --> 0:12:03.480
<v Speaker 2>is so good. The pet is your new favorite TV show.

0:12:03.640 --> 0:12:06.120
<v Speaker 2>The Christian O'Connell Show podcast
