1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:04,280
Speaker 1: Christ Yeah, welcome friends to the Christian o'connells show podcast.

2
00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:07,600
Speaker 1: Jennifer is a sign of second weekend in Lockdown. But

3
00:00:07,680 --> 00:00:11,080
Speaker 1: yesterday me and my two teenage daughters managed to get

4
00:00:11,119 --> 00:00:14,480
Speaker 1: into an argument about how recently I've stopped using a

5
00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:16,640
Speaker 1: knife when I'm having dinner with them. What do you

6
00:00:16,720 --> 00:00:19,400
Speaker 1: mean I've switched to go and spoon and fork? Right,

7
00:00:19,440 --> 00:00:24,040
Speaker 1: because spoon for dinner? Spoon and fork you're eating a soup? No, No,

8
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:26,920
Speaker 1: I'm now Like yesterday I made this homemade bread and

9
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:29,920
Speaker 1: chicken with parmesan and we had cold swaw with it

10
00:00:29,920 --> 00:00:32,840
Speaker 1: in some hot chips. I'm quite happy using a spoon

11
00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:36,959
Speaker 1: and sniffle. Yeah, easily, I can use it, now, tell

12
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:39,120
Speaker 1: you what. Also, it's a more effective like the knife

13
00:00:39,120 --> 00:00:42,000
Speaker 1: once it's done shopping stuff up. The knife is pedestrian,

14
00:00:42,320 --> 00:00:45,479
Speaker 1: whereas the spoon and fork can both be very active

15
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:48,479
Speaker 1: together there. I feel they're more of a stronger sort

16
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:51,559
Speaker 1: of combination than the knight than the knife and the form.

17
00:00:51,680 --> 00:00:53,360
Speaker 2: So what are you using the cut the side of a.

18
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:57,400
Speaker 1: Fork, solo fork or the very sharp side of a spoon.

19
00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:00,000
Speaker 2: You must have sharp spoons at your house, No wonders

20
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 2: describes at the side of it's.

21
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:02,960
Speaker 1: Got a very strong grip. Jack, I could just press

22
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:04,640
Speaker 1: down and break up then the chicken breast.

23
00:01:04,640 --> 00:01:07,600
Speaker 2: True, the knife only does one thing, yes, but it's

24
00:01:07,640 --> 00:01:09,680
Speaker 2: a useful thing because you need your food cut up.

25
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,960
Speaker 1: So we start asking about arguing about knife, spoon, fork.

26
00:01:13,120 --> 00:01:15,120
Speaker 1: One of them has to go. So imagine we have

27
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 1: to get rid of one of them, right, because the

28
00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:18,399
Speaker 1: country draw is just a mess in our house.

29
00:01:18,440 --> 00:01:21,360
Speaker 2: Spoon goes no way, Yes, spoon goes well, you're gonna

30
00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,560
Speaker 2: have your cereal with no Well, I guess, I guess

31
00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:25,120
Speaker 2: you don't.

32
00:01:24,959 --> 00:01:28,360
Speaker 1: Have a spoon is more essential service than the knife.

33
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 2: You could your knife steak. You'll never eat a steak.

34
00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,000
Speaker 1: Then you have your best friend, the state knife. He

35
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 1: comes out for bigger or the other.

36
00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:38,639
Speaker 2: Get rid of the knives.

37
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,760
Speaker 1: Yeah, not the steak. State knife has to stay, but

38
00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:44,160
Speaker 1: the other's sort of what I call Monday to Friday ones.

39
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,200
Speaker 1: You can all leave. They're not doing enough.

40
00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:47,560
Speaker 2: What about buttering bread?

41
00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:50,120
Speaker 1: Spoon can do that.

42
00:01:50,240 --> 00:01:51,160
Speaker 2: No spoon can.

43
00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:54,600
Speaker 1: Let me demonstrate this now, my hand like a paw

44
00:01:54,920 --> 00:01:57,680
Speaker 1: is the spoon, but I'm scooping it like I would

45
00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:00,080
Speaker 1: a JCB digger, scoop it up.

46
00:02:00,280 --> 00:02:02,559
Speaker 2: Okay, into the concave section and.

47
00:02:02,440 --> 00:02:04,559
Speaker 1: Then I just reverse it and he used that nice

48
00:02:04,600 --> 00:02:07,280
Speaker 1: sort of con cave back to smooth out the butter.

49
00:02:07,400 --> 00:02:09,840
Speaker 2: How did the butter get from inside the spoons outside

50
00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 2: the spy?

51
00:02:10,680 --> 00:02:12,920
Speaker 1: You fold the bread in half and you scoop it

52
00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:16,560
Speaker 1: out between get a knife, but tweets thumb and finger,

53
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:19,720
Speaker 1: and then you go back to mister spoon. He's being

54
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 1: used again, and you just smooth it out that way

55
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,160
Speaker 1: like the back of a trout. Really, maybe the.

56
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:28,200
Speaker 2: Fork is not needed then, because the spoon the spoon.

57
00:02:28,600 --> 00:02:30,960
Speaker 2: You need a knife definitely for buttering and for cutting.

58
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:33,640
Speaker 1: It's quite savage of fork is just simply jabbing at food.

59
00:02:33,760 --> 00:02:36,480
Speaker 2: You can eat a steak with a spoon and a knife.

60
00:02:37,480 --> 00:02:40,720
Speaker 2: It looks straight restaurant.

61
00:02:40,760 --> 00:02:44,040
Speaker 1: I'm going to throw this open knife spoon fork. One

62
00:02:44,120 --> 00:02:44,600
Speaker 1: has to go.

63
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:46,680
Speaker 2: Who you getting spoons out?

64
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 3: Wow?

65
00:02:47,800 --> 00:02:49,919
Speaker 2: I'm sad about cereal, but it has to go because

66
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:51,799
Speaker 2: knough and fork are too essential.

67
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:54,799
Speaker 1: Knife can go for me. Okay, what do you think

68
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:59,280
Speaker 1: you're listening to the question know Kyle's show podcast. This

69
00:02:59,320 --> 00:03:01,920
Speaker 1: is what it's like to being locked down with teenage daughters.

70
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:05,519
Speaker 1: Before we even got arguing about knife spoon fork. We've

71
00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,400
Speaker 1: been oh sorry, they've been arguing. I've been just trying

72
00:03:08,440 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 1: to be like a Buddha and not bite or get involved.

73
00:03:10,880 --> 00:03:13,520
Speaker 1: They thought it was very unfair, very very unfair that

74
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:16,160
Speaker 1: they're expected to help out with household chores, and I

75
00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 1: just laugh, going, yeah, of course you think that doesn't

76
00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 1: mean I need to listen to it. I'm sure it

77
00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:22,280
Speaker 1: does feel unfair and get on with it.

78
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:24,280
Speaker 2: Which ones do? They have? The classics?

79
00:03:24,280 --> 00:03:24,560
Speaker 1: For us?

80
00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 2: As kids were loading and unloading the dishwasher, and that's

81
00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:29,079
Speaker 2: probably about it.

82
00:03:29,160 --> 00:03:30,960
Speaker 1: I've tried to get them to do the washing, but

83
00:03:31,000 --> 00:03:33,360
Speaker 1: that was a nightmare. They were deliberately shrinking my clothes.

84
00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:37,240
Speaker 1: What a great way to get out of that shore

85
00:03:37,640 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 1: by ruining my stuff. And it was only ever my stuff.

86
00:03:41,280 --> 00:03:42,400
Speaker 2: I noticed on the drive.

87
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 1: They didn't go for the ol from the family, my wife.

88
00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:46,760
Speaker 1: It was just let's pick on him, let's take him

89
00:03:46,800 --> 00:03:49,760
Speaker 1: out first. He's low hanging through. So yeah, they were

90
00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:51,720
Speaker 1: doing the old thing and one of them said this classic.

91
00:03:51,720 --> 00:03:53,880
Speaker 1: Do you ever say this? Two parents? I didn't ask

92
00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,000
Speaker 1: to be born. Now I'm expected to do with these chawes.

93
00:03:58,560 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 1: But anyway, then they were we were sittting down to

94
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 1: have something to eat. And I don't know about you,

95
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: but the best thing the word we're having to dinner

96
00:04:05,760 --> 00:04:07,320
Speaker 1: is to eat it on your lap, isn't it? Yes,

97
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:10,120
Speaker 1: we eat whenever they have friends around. I always make up. Oh,

98
00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 1: we're just doing this. This is a one off, not

99
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:16,360
Speaker 1: only at the table, and we're talking about philosophy and poetry.

100
00:04:16,360 --> 00:04:18,960
Speaker 1: It's very rare that we just eat. I like savages

101
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,279
Speaker 1: off our laps, staring at the TV, not talking to

102
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:26,839
Speaker 1: each other. So I recently haven't been using a knife.

103
00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:29,640
Speaker 1: I will eat with the family, but I will now

104
00:04:29,839 --> 00:04:30,640
Speaker 1: use spoon and.

105
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,240
Speaker 2: Fur Let me guess. Is it just for so there's

106
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:36,480
Speaker 2: less things to wash up? Because I do like I

107
00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:39,400
Speaker 2: actually do like that, trying to be essential and not

108
00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:41,440
Speaker 2: use as many things. If I can reuse a plate

109
00:04:41,600 --> 00:04:44,239
Speaker 2: or not even use a plate, yes, but the knife

110
00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:47,240
Speaker 2: is essential in cutlery. I think you can get rid

111
00:04:47,279 --> 00:04:47,760
Speaker 2: of the spoon.

112
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:49,599
Speaker 1: By the way. Pro tip if you weren't even a

113
00:04:49,600 --> 00:04:52,559
Speaker 1: streamline as well when you use when the dishwasher is done,

114
00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,560
Speaker 1: don't ble or unpack it. Just start using that. Now

115
00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 1: it's a new cutlery. I do that one.

116
00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:01,400
Speaker 2: I try to get away nuts.

117
00:05:01,520 --> 00:05:04,000
Speaker 1: I just use it's a cutlery drawer and just go

118
00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:05,960
Speaker 1: and take stuff from it and use it then rather

119
00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:06,720
Speaker 1: than I'm backing it.

120
00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 2: Then I get in trouble for because I've taken half

121
00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 2: of the stuff out of it. And is this clean

122
00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,440
Speaker 2: or is it not clean? I can't tell me now chaos.

123
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,400
Speaker 1: All right, knife spoon fork one has to go. I'm

124
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 1: saying the knife can go, it's overrated.

125
00:05:19,480 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 2: I'm saying the spoon can go. The fork can do

126
00:05:21,920 --> 00:05:24,240
Speaker 2: a lot of heavy lifting that the spoon can do.

127
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:27,400
Speaker 1: But together, think about the spoon and fork together. Whatever

128
00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:29,640
Speaker 1: you're having, you can shoven it up quicker and easier.

129
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:30,800
Speaker 2: But you can't cut anything.

130
00:05:30,920 --> 00:05:32,480
Speaker 1: Of course you can. You've got the sides of the

131
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,279
Speaker 1: fork which can be a blade, and also the side

132
00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:37,040
Speaker 1: of the spoon can easily be a blade.

133
00:05:37,040 --> 00:05:39,000
Speaker 2: A blade is a better blade and the blade is

134
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:39,480
Speaker 2: a knife.

135
00:05:39,520 --> 00:05:42,040
Speaker 1: Wow, this is profound. All right, let's go into lines.

136
00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:46,240
Speaker 1: Let's go to Frank morning, Frank morning. How I'm good, Frank,

137
00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:49,360
Speaker 1: hope you had a good weekend. Knife spoon fork which

138
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:50,080
Speaker 1: one goes.

139
00:05:50,440 --> 00:05:53,839
Speaker 3: Has to be fork for to be for? Yeah, Well,

140
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:57,200
Speaker 3: I mean where our work we are use a knife

141
00:05:57,240 --> 00:05:59,480
Speaker 3: and a spoon for some reason, all the forks are

142
00:05:59,520 --> 00:06:02,400
Speaker 3: bringing disappear. So we've bought a necessity. We have to

143
00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:04,280
Speaker 3: use a spoon and a knife, and it works fine,

144
00:06:04,680 --> 00:06:05,599
Speaker 3: works brilliantly.

145
00:06:06,240 --> 00:06:08,520
Speaker 1: We're not even know how to use cutlery here are we?

146
00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,039
Speaker 1: I'm not I'm not joking, Frank. They don't let's do

147
00:06:11,040 --> 00:06:13,600
Speaker 1: a radio show, but they will not let us use cutlery.

148
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 2: Have the start of COVID, they took away all mugs

149
00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,159
Speaker 2: or cutlery and taped up the dish washer.

150
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,280
Speaker 1: It takes up the dishwasher and as you know, very

151
00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:23,800
Speaker 1: hard to break sell tape. It's the strongest thing in

152
00:06:23,839 --> 00:06:26,000
Speaker 1: the world. All right, Frank, thanks for weighing in on

153
00:06:26,000 --> 00:06:27,080
Speaker 1: this big topic this morning.

154
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:30,919
Speaker 3: No worries, lou my morning.

155
00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:34,440
Speaker 1: I currently have someone in my home.

156
00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:38,039
Speaker 3: Who proves the don't use the knife theory. My daughter

157
00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:41,120
Speaker 3: and lauris from Russia. Her and my son are visiting

158
00:06:41,160 --> 00:06:43,760
