Speaker 1: Good morning, producer, Real, good morning, Good morning, Alex, good morning,
Speaker 1: good morning, Patsy. Well hello, now we were all heard
Speaker 1: some big old sort of ten minute gap in the
Speaker 1: news and sport today and then neither to do with
Speaker 1: you two are producer Caning comes running into my studio
Speaker 1: and goes, the engineers are doing some live testing. Well,
Speaker 1: it hasn't worked.
Speaker 3: It's not testing if it's live.
Speaker 4: No.
Speaker 1: And also it's just like for the last six hours,
Speaker 1: so there no humans here. Why not do some of
Speaker 1: the testing in those six hours? Why wait until the
Speaker 1: breakfast show's here to start actually mucking around? Join the
Speaker 1: news and sport. There could have been a serious news
Speaker 1: or sports story there with a weird, strange gap. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I know.
Speaker 5: Can you come in twenty minutes early just to take this? Yes,
Speaker 5: and no it doesn't work live testing? That's Okaylin, did
Speaker 5: it work?
Speaker 1: No? So what happens now?
Speaker 6: Yes?
Speaker 1: Six thirty has crossed. Now, Patsy, you got caught with
Speaker 1: the parking fine yesterday.
Speaker 7: I don't get me start.
Speaker 1: But passes. I think in this city there are parking
Speaker 1: signs that are impenetrable, undecipherable.
Speaker 3: Four or five different signs.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's when there's like the crest of arms the Herald,
Speaker 1: where it's up four quadrants. You're like, with no training,
Speaker 1: with no formal training, how I want to know? What
Speaker 1: are the different clauses that I'm looking at here? It's
Speaker 1: like a legal contract in a different language, isn't it.
Speaker 1: But your one is one of those split down the
Speaker 1: middle with the no parking sign.
Speaker 7: All right, I see what you're saying, but let's put
Speaker 7: it into context. One o'clock in the afternoon, half asleep,
Speaker 7: been up since the middle of the night, and obviously.
Speaker 1: Walking up that hill again with that sack of wood
Speaker 1: and bare feet in the snow, but up since midnight.
Speaker 7: Mine was playing tricks yet again, and I seriously thought
Speaker 7: I was in the right I thought, no, I thought
Speaker 7: it was unusual that I got to park right out
Speaker 7: the front of the cafe. Was meeting the Love God
Speaker 7: for lunch yesterday at Williamstown.
Speaker 1: Oh lovely. Yeah, it was just one.
Speaker 7: Of those opportunity rings me. Hey, I've got a spare
Speaker 7: twenty minutes, half an hour, let's meet for meet for
Speaker 7: you know, a bit of lunch, and how's your father?
Speaker 3: And so, oh my god, restaurant.
Speaker 1: Suddenly they're in the kitchen, in that meat locker.
Speaker 7: And right out the front, right out the front as
Speaker 7: the park, which I thought was really unusual.
Speaker 1: Now I know why you always got to be suspicious.
Speaker 7: A damn loading zone. And I parked there very fully confident.
Speaker 7: And when I went in and met Chris, I said,
Speaker 7: you never believe I've got.
Speaker 3: A park right out in the front, right out the front.
Speaker 1: It never happens.
Speaker 7: And then came out and the damn ticket blowing in the.
Speaker 3: Break more than your lunch, more, far more.
Speaker 1: Than the lunch.
Speaker 3: I could have flown on a learjet to Paris and
Speaker 3: had lunch.
Speaker 8: Oh.
Speaker 7: I was so annoyed. I thought, oh, how stupid. I
Speaker 7: just did not interpret it.
Speaker 1: It's correctly, it's crystal clearly. Yeah.
Speaker 9: I don't want to be rude Patsy, but this is
Speaker 9: just two signs. The top says loading signs seven am
Speaker 9: to one pm, p ass Monday to Saturday. From there
Speaker 9: you just goboard's one pm Monday to Saturday.
Speaker 1: A child could read this. I didn't see that. Okay,
Speaker 1: well you can't looked at it. You must just dump
Speaker 1: that car there, thinking I work in showbiz. I'll park
Speaker 1: it where I want. And I threw the keys at somebody.
Speaker 3: Where's that valet?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, probably some poor guy want to unload some
Speaker 1: fruit and edge for the place and now has to
Speaker 1: go on and do laps or something. And that all
Speaker 1: those peaches and.
Speaker 7: That it was awful, and it was kind of on
Speaker 7: a funny bit of a road where there's like a
Speaker 7: bend and either side of it obviously is normal parks.
Speaker 7: I don't know what I was thinking. It just did
Speaker 7: not compute in my brain.
Speaker 1: Here's what I would say they need to do in
Speaker 1: this country to save the suburbs right from online shopping.
Speaker 1: It's really hard to park at your local places. Yeah
Speaker 1: it is. I don't know what the answer is, but
Speaker 1: it's making it really hard. This is why they run
Speaker 1: the risk of people going online, because we're just lazy
Speaker 1: and time staffed. It's a nightmare. You've got these narrow
Speaker 1: little streets. Trying to park is an absolute nightmare, isn't it,
Speaker 1: pat Yeah.
Speaker 10: It is.
Speaker 7: And small business, Yes, I feel really really sorry for
Speaker 7: them because everyone's going to the major shopping malls.
Speaker 1: This is a beautiful little strip, gorgeous.
Speaker 7: Yeah, and you know that's where you'll find those shops
Speaker 7: that aren't like the big multinationals, all the little bootiques
Speaker 7: and just struggling business owners who God knows.
Speaker 1: You've got it. We've got to hang on to that
Speaker 1: because the one of the lovely things about this country
Speaker 1: is all the suburbs in Melbourne right are different. Yes,
Speaker 1: I really really like that. They've got their own little
Speaker 1: mum and pop stores and businesses that have been in
Speaker 1: those communities for decades, right, and obviously during COVID that
Speaker 1: really got damage, not of them aren't there anymore. So
Speaker 1: the ones that are really really they're part of the community.
Speaker 1: They they know you, yes, yeah, you know, and they
Speaker 1: ask they've got this to know like because they see
Speaker 1: you a lot like most weeks. They know what you've
Speaker 1: been through in your life and what's happened, and we
Speaker 1: really need that. That's why the last domains of an
Speaker 1: actual community now is that because some of the old
Speaker 1: pubs are dying out now, no one goes to church
Speaker 1: and so that connection with someone, those local shops are
Speaker 1: really really important. I don't know what the answers, but
Speaker 1: they need some way where it's just easy for us
Speaker 1: to dump the cars without fearing of I can't read
Speaker 1: this parking sign. I just go click and collect.
Speaker 9: At least take the parking signs completely idiot proof.
Speaker 1: Now I'm having a go at Patsy having some midday befuddlement,
Speaker 1: because this is exactly what happened to me yesterday at
Speaker 1: one o'clock when I terrified an old lady. Oh no,
Speaker 1: so full discosuts happened next the.
Speaker 2: Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1: So Patsy had her midday confusion. Essay, I had perfuddlement
Speaker 1: at midday, you're write, Patsy, it's with these hours and
Speaker 1: the amount of years doing them that that sort of
Speaker 1: one till two is the grazer. You can just wig out.
Speaker 1: My family, no, not to even call me unless they
Speaker 1: really need to. My wife will begin if she does come,
Speaker 1: and then have you had your nap? And I go, no,
Speaker 1: all right, call me back when you work it out
Speaker 1: and you've had a cup of tea. So there needs
Speaker 1: to be a buffer zone. You're bear to come out
Speaker 1: with hibernation anyway, Yes, I was running some errands, and
Speaker 1: I didn't realize at the time it all drifted and
Speaker 1: I was in the gray zone, and so I also
Speaker 1: turning to my car. I wasn't returning to my car.
Speaker 1: I was returned to a car exactly the same color
Speaker 1: as mine, not exactly the same make or model, but
Speaker 1: exactly the same color, the mid sized suv. I rip
Speaker 1: open the door, it's unlocked, and thinking I'm getting in
Speaker 1: my car. Where suddenly an old lady in the passenger seat,
Speaker 1: and I mean a really old, frail lady actually shrieks.
Speaker 1: I really scared, as I would do, because you know,
Speaker 1: there's all these car jackets at the and suddenly looks
Speaker 1: like there's some devilish, handsome, roguish one, a charmer, a charmer,
Speaker 1: roguish one, tikish one right is in the car some
Speaker 1: English cat. Excuse me, I'm so sorry. So two things happened.
Speaker 1: She actually was Oh my god, no, she was actually
Speaker 1: really I really did scare her. At the same time,
Speaker 1: I'm thinking we're part just down the road from an
Speaker 1: age care home, and I'm thinking, oh, this poor old deer.
Speaker 1: I'm now going to have to try and explain this
Speaker 1: isn't her car and take her back to the unit
Speaker 1: where there's probably some alarm going right now. Then I
Speaker 1: realized in a minute, this isn't the badge of my
Speaker 1: I'm the only confused dodgery fall.
Speaker 3: Here going to take you back to your.
Speaker 1: Where there's no alarm being wrong for my disappearances?
Speaker 3: How do you explain your way out of that one?
Speaker 1: To the lady? I actually went bright red, so I know,
Speaker 1: I'm so sorry. I thought this was my car and
Speaker 1: she just didn't understand. I think she was very old
Speaker 1: and she's very confused and actually really scared. She was
Speaker 1: doing that thing like leaning back. The worst thing I
Speaker 1: saw my last is of her clutching double handed her handbag.
Speaker 1: That's the first thing you'd go for, and it did
Speaker 1: look like a blinger one. I'm not half me. Did
Speaker 1: think I won if you go any some cash in there?
Speaker 1: Just going by myself something money's tight at the moment.
Speaker 1: I could just you could spit, spend me a honey
Speaker 1: or something in there. But yeah, I was just really
Speaker 1: was like I was so confused my car and I
Speaker 1: was like, my car is too up, and she was
Speaker 1: like trying to look and as I then got into
Speaker 1: my car, I was like looking back to her and
Speaker 1: she was on the phone to somebody, and I thought,
Speaker 1: hopefully that's just like someone who's like dumped her there,
Speaker 1: or it's on the places it might be pulled over
Speaker 1: if I accidentally kidnapped an elderly baby, and this was
Speaker 1: just like a dry run. I'm like, I'm very confused
Speaker 1: these hours. We can't read parking signs or what car
Speaker 1: we're even getting into I should be driving from that time.
Speaker 2: The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1: Last week on the show, then we were trying to
Speaker 1: plot the ladder of escalation. In the news, Patsy had
Speaker 1: mentioned the word was it hubbubffle in Parliament? That's it?
Speaker 1: And a call early in the week had told us
Speaker 1: a story for claim to fain about Princess Diana in
Speaker 1: the department store Harrod's in the children's floor, causing a kerfuffle.
Speaker 1: So rio what did we settle on this end? There's
Speaker 1: the ladder of escalation with suggestions from our listeners.
Speaker 3: Going from lowest to highest.
Speaker 9: We start at the bottom with a who ha, then
Speaker 9: we go to a barnie, a hubbub, a brew haha,
Speaker 9: a kerfuffle, afrakka, a melee, and right at the top
Speaker 9: is a Donny Brook.
Speaker 1: Okay, we now need to do the same kind of ladder,
Speaker 1: the same kind of escalation, but now it's about confusion,
Speaker 1: the ladder of confusion with Patsy suffering perfuflnament yesterday and
Speaker 1: myself as well. One of you emailed just after the
Speaker 1: show were yesterday when I was talking that we're going
Speaker 1: to do this Christian a ladder. A word to place
Speaker 1: on the ladder of confusion discombobulated, rich I just looked
Speaker 1: it up to be confused, disorientated, throwing into a throwing
Speaker 1: into a state of uncertainty, often accompanied by a feeling
Speaker 1: of being off kilter. Off kilter is another grad yes,
Speaker 1: But discombobulated is a great old timey word. However, obviously,
Speaker 1: to be discombobulated, like to be disconnected, there has to
Speaker 1: be an opposite pairing word. But we don't ever say
Speaker 1: I'm feeling really great the moment, I'm actually combobulated.
Speaker 3: Very very put together.
Speaker 1: Happy combobulation. We should launch our own ones with happy combobulation.
Speaker 5: He grants that in notting Hill that wordence actually high level,
Speaker 5: very good.
Speaker 1: All right, So where do we think is at the bottom?
Speaker 7: I think in a tizzy is pretty low, just a
Speaker 7: bit of a nickers in a sort of thing.
Speaker 1: Yes, nickers in a twist is quite high up, though
Speaker 1: that should be on the in fact, that's missing from
Speaker 1: the lad of escalation. Nickers and the twist. Someone clutching
Speaker 1: their pearl handbag and their pearls in all sorts, yes,
Speaker 1: in all sorts. In bits in a tizzy is a
Speaker 1: good one.
Speaker 2: Though.
Speaker 1: Let's let's put that at the bottom. And wheel is
Speaker 1: in a tizzy with the microphones. That one costs about
Speaker 1: nine bucks actually, so it's the way things are going
Speaker 1: at the moment. You'll be a back down that shop.
Speaker 1: You got any old microphones that John Laws throw out
Speaker 1: when he.
Speaker 7: Retired, golden microphone.
Speaker 1: We couldn't even get a tin one golden that all right?
Speaker 1: So in a tizzy, I reckon.
Speaker 9: Befuddled is just above in a teasy. It's just a
Speaker 9: little bit befuddle.
Speaker 1: But it's mild.
Speaker 3: It's mild.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, so it's not you're not a you know,
Speaker 1: maybe we do the top and bottom right and then
Speaker 1: work in them to each other. So if we go
Speaker 1: in a tizzy, at the bottom is discombobulated. At the top,
Speaker 1: it's near the top the top of them and boozled.
Speaker 3: And boozed is pretty hard.
Speaker 1: What about flabbergasted?
Speaker 3: Flabagastad, I think is a very British thing.
Speaker 1: Like yesterday it's me in the car with that old
Speaker 1: lady was flabbaghasted And you can't be flabbagasted without an
Speaker 1: excamation mark yes, yes, come from I don't know. It's
Speaker 1: got to be a real old timy English word. I
Speaker 1: heard it in a cricket commentary in the eighties, first
Speaker 1: time I ever heard it. My dad used to listen
Speaker 1: to the cricket on like the radio. A terrible spot
Speaker 1: on the radio, but it's huge in England. Test Matt Special,
Speaker 1: Henry Blowfeld, it's an institution. Yeah, amazing voice, right, but
Speaker 1: because there'd be lots of non activity, it's cricket on
Speaker 1: the radio. The commentation is like Blowers as he was called,
Speaker 1: would talk about the ps and he would have these
Speaker 1: conversations on air to the UK with these pictures, the
Speaker 1: mister pictures the pictures probably saying there's the queen coming
Speaker 1: to watch the game. Yeah, she said she'd be run
Speaker 1: at four o'clock. Anyway. I remember once they were playing India,
Speaker 1: I think, and some sort of skulldug red happened out.
Speaker 1: Then lowis To said, well, I'm simply flabbergast, and it
Speaker 1: felt the right. I remember saying to my dad what
Speaker 1: does that mean? He went confused. He nailed it, Yes,
Speaker 1: all right, So what's at the top currently?
Speaker 9: I think Ben Boozeled is the is the clubhouse leader?
Speaker 9: What do you guys think?
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's pretty good. Yeah, all right, they're settle on
Speaker 1: that for now. Calling then what are we missing? I'll
Speaker 1: give me a call. Thirteen fifty five, twenty two. This
Speaker 1: is the ladder of confusion, when we are thrown into
Speaker 1: a state of uncertainty and off kilter.
Speaker 2: The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1: My Mum's seventy fifth birthday yesterday, Dan Chare was strange
Speaker 1: being all the way here and it's like a big
Speaker 1: birthday for her. We were doing our video call yesterday
Speaker 1: evening and I'm saying, my god, you're seventy five, and
Speaker 1: that's I'm chatting to. I'm doing the maths, and I was, oh,
Speaker 1: my god, she had me when she was twenty two.
Speaker 1: She never even thought about that. Twenty two. That's young,
Speaker 1: isn't it. Yeah. I suddenly we were like chatting. And
Speaker 1: she was like, you know, just theyre always talking about
Speaker 1: old friends, are their? So you don't know your mum
Speaker 1: and dad do that the like people? You go, I
Speaker 1: don't know who this is. They don't take that cue.
Speaker 1: You then realize I'm in for ten or fifteen minutes
Speaker 1: of dry, hard talk here about Marie and Pete and
Speaker 1: what's going on. I'm like, I've never met them. Actually
Speaker 1: that doesn't matter, you know, it doesn't matter.
Speaker 3: You're getting the.
Speaker 1: And I was like, good lord. And then suddenly I
Speaker 1: just went, oh my god, what is everything? I went,
Speaker 1: just Withers, you were twenty two when you had me.
Speaker 1: And then she actually she got defensive. You know, they
Speaker 1: get cranky real quick. She went, ess, you really should
Speaker 1: be praying around and stuff like that. One a documentary maker,
Speaker 1: inform your son, cranky old newly seventy five year old
Speaker 1: you right around in the I'm hanging up right now.
Speaker 1: If I knew how to hang this video done? Call
Speaker 1: up here? What's the mouse? Every single video? Call right?
Speaker 1: We do it every Tuesday night. We catch up right.
Speaker 1: It's been going for years. She still doesn't use that
Speaker 1: flipping and she go, I can't hear you hear you.
Speaker 1: Can you turn up your end every time? I can
Speaker 1: only turn my volume up to hear me. How why
Speaker 1: would someone remote, indeed the other side of the world
Speaker 1: pop mucking around with you with your volume? And then
Speaker 1: it's like, mom again, the screen is a beautiful head
Speaker 1: you've got. How about we see the whole face get
Speaker 1: lower down? Seven years I have been living here, there's
Speaker 1: hundreds of these moments. There's no learning anymore. Have you
Speaker 1: been taking your cod liveryal capsules?
Speaker 3: It's their kryptonite.
Speaker 1: Oh my word. Then she goes, I'm struggling to hear you.
Speaker 1: Can you tell me I when not? We can't keep
Speaker 1: doing this. She went, have you plugged your speakers? I
Speaker 1: don't have you trouble had separate little speakers and computers.
Speaker 1: They'll just built in and there's a hot way to
Speaker 1: start the call because I'm already I'm already know and
Speaker 1: that will be us. That's the other thing. Well that's
Speaker 1: worried about that in ten or fifteen years, twenty years,
Speaker 1: it's a holiday. Yeah, and they'll be trying to turn
Speaker 1: it off as I materializing in their homes. I'm trying
Speaker 1: to come through accept for my material matter. Dad you're
Speaker 1: you're you're rematerializing in the front room. I'm stuck in
Speaker 1: the matrix, all right. So we're trying to make the
Speaker 1: ladder of confusion. What are we go going at the
Speaker 1: moment from the most mild state of confusion.
Speaker 9: Rio in a tizzy as in she got herself in
Speaker 9: a tizzy over what shoes to wear to brunch. Befuddled
Speaker 9: as in the wine less tasting left me more befuddled
Speaker 9: than educated.
Speaker 1: I'm liking the real time examples, as in with these peas,
Speaker 1: keep it going.
Speaker 9: Now if these we're thin because they take a long time,
Speaker 9: please just mention it at six and seven. Since the
Speaker 9: office move, everyone's been at sixes and sevens trying to
Speaker 9: find a new printer.
Speaker 1: You're right, I haven't heard that phrase ages six and sevens.
Speaker 3: Nickers in a not don't get nickers in a twist.
Speaker 1: There's always nickers are on a test, aren't they in it?
Speaker 7: It's not in Australia, but we'll go with twists.
Speaker 1: Twisted in it's the English language, so if you're using it,
Speaker 1: get it right.
Speaker 3: Don't get your knickers in a twist. It's just a
Speaker 3: board game.
Speaker 1: Flum mixed.
Speaker 9: I was flummixed by the IKEA instructions, flabbergasted. She was
Speaker 9: flabbergasted when her quiet cat suddenly started playing the piano.
Speaker 1: You let me.
Speaker 9: Discombobulated after three connecting flights and no sleep. I felt
Speaker 9: totally discombobulated walking through.
Speaker 1: These were likely three drinks on the plane while you
Speaker 1: were discombobulated.
Speaker 9: And finally, right at the tippy top, bamboozled. I was
Speaker 9: completely bamboozled when the magician pulled a rabbit out of
Speaker 9: my hat.
Speaker 1: Christian. I made up a new word a few weeks
Speaker 1: years ago, which is a mixture of gobsmacked, which we've
Speaker 1: completely missed, gobsmacked and boggled. I've come out with bog smaggled,
Speaker 1: Pam in shurnside part. That is not a great work,
Speaker 1: like a cart reger you'd see up in Queensland, bog
Speaker 1: smaggled or some new bopp It rival board game. Christian
Speaker 1: I and what about stumped? I found myself stumped mid
Speaker 1: table that one from that lee. I think this should
Speaker 1: be high up perplexed, perplexed one. Yeah, that's very good
Speaker 1: word and Rachel gobsmacked second on the list, second from
Speaker 1: the top. Christian, uh toble this has to be w TF,
Speaker 1: Christopher a little bit aggressive, my friend, we please if
Speaker 1: you contact the show mind you ps and q's it's
Speaker 1: not Carl and Jackie O. And then Matthew's got a
Speaker 1: great one. Frazzled. Oh this is frazzled yesterday, That's what
Speaker 1: it is. It's like your circuits are fry. Yeah, frazzled.
Speaker 1: It's got to be near the top. I think, good morning,
Speaker 1: Christian and team. What about brain fart?
Speaker 3: I've had a bit of a brain fit.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, like.
Speaker 11: A one off moment like Patsy pratusicating, where do you
Speaker 11: think that is?
Speaker 12: That's a really good one, but it's low on the list.
Speaker 1: Bit of a brain fat. Yeah, it's a mild sort
Speaker 1: of mental disturbance. Yeah, very mild.
Speaker 7: Second from the bottom.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's mainly Pats's wake in state during the show.
Speaker 1: That's her neutral.
Speaker 2: Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1: In the study texts coming in words we've missed or
Speaker 1: overseen for our ladder of confusion going from and it
Speaker 1: is right up to at the moment, we think top
Speaker 1: of the ladder is in a state of bamboozlement. Christian,
Speaker 1: what about being at sea? Please help me here, doctor
Speaker 1: be amused. Yeah, I think that's quite confusion. No, that's
Speaker 1: what it's understanding. But I guess that is confusion.
Speaker 3: It's amused, is more like sort of I don't even know.
Speaker 3: It's not confused, no.
Speaker 1: But muddled.
Speaker 3: Oh now that's a huge shame on us.
Speaker 1: To missing that out. I think we got a little
Speaker 1: bit muddled up there. And what about adults?
Speaker 3: Adult?
Speaker 1: Definitely adult is also two drinks in slightly adult states.
Speaker 1: Things are starting to lose their moorings.
Speaker 3: It's only sort of alcohol based.

Speaker 1: They probably just met the winner.
Speaker 2: The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1: Christian Japassy just say that Collingwood are paying tribute to
Speaker 1: Robert Redford. I didn't realize he was such a big
Speaker 1: influence for the team. He was a yes, yes, I know.
Speaker 1: You would have thought you'd be more in a ds man,
Speaker 1: you know, but no big shot today. Isn't that the
Speaker 1: great Robert Redford has died? He said, actually he wants
Speaker 1: a closet Pies fast to have.
Speaker 7: Him in the shares before the really say Collingwood.
Speaker 1: It did, you said, Hollywood, but it did also sound
Speaker 1: a lot like this. We get the audio like Collingwood
Speaker 1: which leaning into that. Just run with it, Perats. It's
Speaker 1: a night running into the finals, the big Twilight game
Speaker 1: Saturday night for Pies. The fact that they might maybe
Speaker 1: some confusion. Now we can start rooming here next thing.
Speaker 1: You know, before the game, there's going to be a
Speaker 1: minute silence for a pies man. Robert, you have just
Speaker 1: seen the great Hollywood megastar up there on the screen,
Speaker 1: and then and then at the end of all that.
Speaker 5: A photo of him and the banner as they run, yeah,
Speaker 5: run through it yet be great.
Speaker 1: The Sting anyway a feels like the last of one
Speaker 1: of the real icons of an old time version of Hollywood,
Speaker 1: a real a real megastar, high watched charisma, so many
Speaker 1: great movies like Patsy was Staying obviously, Butch Cassidy and
Speaker 1: The Sun Dance Kid, which has got so many iconic
Speaker 1: scenes in as well, and also The Sting. And then
Speaker 1: my favorite one is a great one that he came
Speaker 1: out with in the eighties called The Natural. I would
Speaker 1: if any of you want to really see what was
Speaker 1: great about Robert Redford in a very unshowy kind of
Speaker 1: dis intense presence he had in a movie, it was
Speaker 1: The Natural. It's about aging cent in the nineteen thirties
Speaker 1: and aging baseball legend Roy Hobbs base I watched it
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago. I haven't seen it since
Speaker 1: I watched it with my dad when I was about
Speaker 1: fourteen or fifteen. I was, Oh, my god, The Natural
Speaker 1: and one off. It's still really great, still a beautiful,
Speaker 1: beautiful movie. It's so good all the President's men. Yeah, incredible, unbelievable.
Speaker 1: I didn't realize the last scene in Butch Cassidy and
Speaker 1: the Sun Dance Kid, which is of course got Robert
Speaker 1: redwooded and another sort of icon of cinema as well,
Speaker 1: Paul Newman, incredibly charismatic, twinkly eyed charmer as well. The
Speaker 1: last scene when they talk about where could they flee
Speaker 1: and hide in the world? Is this country Australia great
Speaker 1: idea where we should go next?
Speaker 2: I don't want to hear it.
Speaker 14: Australia, that's your great idea. Australia is no better than
Speaker 14: your I mean one thing, good climate, nice beaches, you
Speaker 14: can learn to swim, swimming.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I never knew Last Sea his spiritual home. Yes, yes,
Speaker 1: so I was saying to the team before the show today, like,
Speaker 1: you know, what movies have you seen? And this is
Speaker 1: when I realized the age we're at Alex and Pats
Speaker 1: and the age these young thrusters are at. The I
Speaker 1: hadn't seen any of his movies. No way participate then
Speaker 1: what was the one? And bear in mind that Robert
Speaker 1: Redford set up the Sun Dance Film Festival, which is
Speaker 1: really all about independent storytelling, and is it is the
Speaker 1: festival everyone talks about I got a standing What is
Speaker 1: it like in only industry that give themselves eight hours
Speaker 1: standing evations? And they used to stand there and we
Speaker 1: don't get it when someone's like done some really great
Speaker 1: plumbing around your house, which is equally, if not more impactful,
Speaker 1: they don't just stand there. Were you There's one that
Speaker 1: I saw the day for the New Rock movie.
Speaker 3: Oh yes, yeah, it was yeah, yeah, seventeen minutes or something.
Speaker 1: Eighteen minutes and thirty three seconds when they're really timing it.
Speaker 1: Do you know how long that is? Just be standing there?
Speaker 9: Go and keep going?
Speaker 3: And how do you know it to end?
Speaker 1: Who sort of goes to sit down or anything like that?
Speaker 1: You know, I'm worried. Tomorrow we're going to see like
Speaker 1: the big premiere of MJ the Musical. I'm going to
Speaker 1: start a standing ovation at the beginning and see if
Speaker 1: I can get it and beats what they do at
Speaker 1: the sun Dance Film Festival.
Speaker 9: He used to sit down after everyone else has to kayline.
Speaker 1: What Robert Redford movie?
Speaker 2: You know?
Speaker 1: Is it the Sting? Is it the Natural? All Presidents men?
Speaker 1: It was Captain America, The Winter Soldier. Yes, he was
Speaker 1: really good villain.
Speaker 3: One of his finest roles.
Speaker 1: Right, your homework now is to see but Cassid and
Speaker 1: the Sundance Kid. It's a it's a great movie.
Speaker 3: I happily will I will.
Speaker 1: I will from everything that I've seen today and reading
Speaker 1: all up about. But I also think that some of
Speaker 1: the movies that he was in, right, but Castiding and
Speaker 1: Sundance Kid can never be remade. Right, And I'll see
Speaker 1: what other movies should never ever be remade? I would say,
Speaker 1: Back to the Future.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I think that one might get remade, though
Speaker 3: I feel like.
Speaker 1: Christopher Lloyd. You're right, there's only one Christopher Lloyd.
Speaker 3: But it's right for the picking.
Speaker 1: In their no, don't say Mark Wallburg's no. No. Yeah,
Speaker 1: And what about I was just thinking, like Forst. Gump
Speaker 1: is Tom Hanks.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I've never actually finished Forrest.
Speaker 1: Really, my friend? What do you mean? It's a joyous
Speaker 1: I mean it's sad at times, it's beautiful. Lieutenant tell
Speaker 1: me you got further than Lieutenant Dan. But I haven't
Speaker 1: made it more than twenty minutes. That's the start of it.
Speaker 1: It's just like, who does that I should have? Which
Speaker 1: I know in this job interview stage. You would not
Speaker 1: be in the studio with me.
Speaker 9: This is shocking, and you know it's going to be
Speaker 9: a long movie. So I'm like, I don't know, think
Speaker 9: I can do three hours of this.
Speaker 7: It's beautiful with your generation where you sit for three
Speaker 7: hours and watch cinematical.
Speaker 1: For three hours, TikTok looking at camp videos.
Speaker 7: That's your homework, Creer.
Speaker 1: You've got to see a joyous movie. It won so
Speaker 1: many Oscars. Him and Ron Howard. What's not about that?
Speaker 1: I know, I know, did you even you wouldn't have
Speaker 1: got a spile as Lieutenant Dan.
Speaker 3: I don't know what that is now.
Speaker 1: You haven't met Morris come.
Speaker 15: It's kind of stupid, and that's how it starts. We
Speaker 15: judge him and then you realize he's the best of us. Okay,
Speaker 15: I'll give it another simple man with the pure heart. Yes,
Speaker 15: you know, if anything's about Alex Colored.
Speaker 2: Exactly, Christian O'Connell Show Gone podcast, Christian.
Speaker 1: If they remade back to the future today, that would
Speaker 1: mean that Marty would go back thirty years to nineteen
Speaker 1: A nineteen ninety five.
Speaker 3: Oh that's quick, Scott.
Speaker 1: That actually is a little bit depressing. I'd be really honest,
Speaker 1: it's a bit of a buzzkill Eddie who's actually put
Speaker 1: a sorry and you'll feel very old, same as you
Speaker 1: use Christian at fifty two. I was feeling really good
Speaker 1: about myself in the show until you mentioned that that
Speaker 1: going back in time traveling thirty years is only to
Speaker 1: nineteen ninety five. All right, let's two of them before
Speaker 1: we get into news. Talk about movies and the sad
Speaker 1: passing of a Hollywood great. Robert Redford lost in translation game.
Speaker 1: This is where when they translate various English movies into
Speaker 1: foreign languages for the local markets, sometimes the original meaning
Speaker 1: in the title is a little bit befuddled. So last
Speaker 1: week we found out that Greece for Mexico was Vassoline.
Speaker 1: Wild Speed is a Japanese version of Fast and Furious.
Speaker 1: What is that fish is gone? What's the movie in Germany?
Speaker 7: It's not a fish called wonder?
Speaker 1: No it's not. It's pretty and it does not sound
Speaker 1: like a children's movie in that language. That meeting. It's
Speaker 1: raining flaff.
Speaker 7: Oh it's not big great qudding.
Speaker 1: No it's not. And they say Australias aren't too good
Speaker 1: with world knowledge. It's Israel cloudly with a chance of
Speaker 1: Meatballs of Nights of the Night, Oh, Night of the
Speaker 1: Night Nights. No, this is Finland.
Speaker 3: Is it Night with a k?
Speaker 1: Yes? And then second Night is of the Nights.
Speaker 7: Not Prince of Thaves.
Speaker 1: No, I think bigger, bigger, bigger trilogy of movies.
Speaker 3: Oh the Dark Knighty.
Speaker 1: Nights of the Knights. Two Men in a Destiny, two
Speaker 1: men and baby. No, this is Espaniola.
Speaker 3: Two men in a Destiny, Harold and kum I go
Speaker 3: to White Castle.
Speaker 1: Oh wow, but it's Cassidy and the Sundans kid threw
Speaker 1: that one in topical interplanetary Unusual attacking.

Speaker 11: post code, Team Alien, No Independence Day, No interplanetary unusual
Speaker 11: attacking teams, Star Wars.
Speaker 1: No, Guardians of the Galaxy. And Japanese this is this
Speaker 1: is great. This is the French translation of a big
Speaker 1: movie blockbuster, The Teeth from the Sea. Yeah, the Tooth
Speaker 1: from the Sea. That's what they saw in France and
Speaker 1: made the blockbuster. And then this it's last one. What
Speaker 1: movie is this translator for the Chinese market? One Night,
Speaker 1: Big Belly.
Speaker 3: My Big Factory Wedding.
Speaker 1: No, no, is it trouble?
Speaker 7: What's the name.

Speaker 2: The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1: Christ and I also love Robert Redford. Have you seen
Speaker 1: the Horse Whisperer? Yes, I have you here. I got married.
Speaker 1: I was so that early day when we just got married.
Speaker 1: And yeah, it's long three hours. Those kind of movies
Speaker 1: used to be called Wee Peace. Also just to make
Speaker 1: you cry. It's an incredible story of the book about
Speaker 1: a guy called Monty Roberts, who is an incredible guy
Speaker 1: who was a legendary horse trainer and a kind of
Speaker 1: zen master who didn't use formal, quite strict methods to
Speaker 1: break and train a horse. He would telepathically communicate with them,
Speaker 1: and people who'd had tough times or a breakdown would
Speaker 1: go and stay with them and learn how to communicate
Speaker 1: with horses because you can't spook them or show them
Speaker 1: any fear. And so it would it would a contract,
Speaker 1: it would it would teach them how to calm themselves.
Speaker 1: At the heart of it's an incredible movie. But we
Speaker 1: rode a horse with him who with Monty Roberts. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and my wife will be so jealous. Yeah, amazing, And
Speaker 1: he helped this Iraqi war veteran. Yeah, yeah, and he
Speaker 1: he was an absolute mess. He had a terrible time
Speaker 1: in the army and in Iraq.
Speaker 5: And she formed this this bod with his horse and
Speaker 5: WITHSDA and she's she's recovering addicts.
Speaker 1: And he did such great work. Amazing guy Robert redro
Speaker 1: brought the rights to it. He starred in it and
Speaker 1: directed it. And I think young Scarlet your Hansen is
Speaker 1: a traumatized girl who had an accident, whose mum and
Speaker 1: dad take her there. I think she must have been
Speaker 1: like ten eleven or twelve. She plays the daughter in
Speaker 1: its Scarlet in your Hanson's in it. Yeah, incredible. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's a brilliant movie. All right. So yesterday we were
