WEBVTT - MINI: How Prince's Death Defined The 2010s

0:00:00.160 --> 0:00:03.080
<v Speaker 1>The first time and O'Connell Breakfast Show, Melbourne's Gold one

0:00:03.120 --> 0:00:04.040
<v Speaker 1>oh four point three.

0:00:04.240 --> 0:00:06.200
<v Speaker 2>Let's talk about the end of the decade because it

0:00:06.240 --> 0:00:07.680
<v Speaker 2>is coming up. We've only got two and a bit

0:00:07.720 --> 0:00:09.920
<v Speaker 2>months left on this year and then it is the

0:00:10.039 --> 0:00:12.520
<v Speaker 2>end of a decade. We have seen off another decade

0:00:12.640 --> 0:00:14.320
<v Speaker 2>and when you think about it, there are so many

0:00:14.360 --> 0:00:17.560
<v Speaker 2>big moments, good and bad. If we're honest about this decade.

0:00:17.680 --> 0:00:19.320
<v Speaker 2>When I start to google it yesterday, some of the

0:00:19.320 --> 0:00:21.280
<v Speaker 2>biggest talking points of the year, some of them made

0:00:21.320 --> 0:00:23.120
<v Speaker 2>you shudder, you know, because you live. If you think

0:00:23.120 --> 0:00:25.520
<v Speaker 2>about the bigger talking points of the last decade, there

0:00:25.560 --> 0:00:28.160
<v Speaker 2>are some themes that are coming up all over the world.

0:00:28.320 --> 0:00:29.800
<v Speaker 2>But what we're doing, then there's that meet Chack and

0:00:29.800 --> 0:00:31.800
<v Speaker 2>Pats each day this week we're going through what we

0:00:31.800 --> 0:00:34.959
<v Speaker 2>think are our personal two or three big moments of

0:00:35.000 --> 0:00:37.680
<v Speaker 2>the last decade. Patsy, it's you this morning. What do

0:00:37.680 --> 0:00:38.400
<v Speaker 2>you want to talk about?

0:00:38.440 --> 0:00:41.760
<v Speaker 3>First of all, for me, definitely the election of our

0:00:41.920 --> 0:00:46.240
<v Speaker 3>first female prime minister in Australia are coming of age

0:00:46.360 --> 0:00:48.480
<v Speaker 3>for us, and it was also a time of great

0:00:48.640 --> 0:00:54.200
<v Speaker 3>political turmoil in our country. But personally, on a personal note,

0:00:54.440 --> 0:00:58.240
<v Speaker 3>I'd just given birth to my daughter. So for me,

0:00:58.800 --> 0:01:01.480
<v Speaker 3>it was like, wow, this is a great example for

0:01:01.560 --> 0:01:04.679
<v Speaker 3>Audrey as she grows up that you know, women can

0:01:04.720 --> 0:01:06.920
<v Speaker 3>be whatever they want to be, they can do whatever

0:01:06.959 --> 0:01:09.720
<v Speaker 3>they want to do. And I think, you know, whether

0:01:09.800 --> 0:01:14.080
<v Speaker 3>you supported labor or not, I think Julia was a

0:01:14.080 --> 0:01:17.399
<v Speaker 3>bit of a trailblazer really for women in the country.

0:01:17.520 --> 0:01:21.400
<v Speaker 3>And one thing that I really loved her for was

0:01:21.440 --> 0:01:25.720
<v Speaker 3>her infamous now misogyny speech in Parliament, which was directed

0:01:25.760 --> 0:01:27.679
<v Speaker 3>at then PM Tony Abbott.

0:01:27.880 --> 0:01:29.080
<v Speaker 2>So I've listened to this. It's that sort of a

0:01:29.120 --> 0:01:29.800
<v Speaker 2>house of cards.

0:01:30.280 --> 0:01:34.320
<v Speaker 4>I will not be lectured about sexism and misogyny by

0:01:34.400 --> 0:01:34.960
<v Speaker 4>this man.

0:01:35.120 --> 0:01:36.520
<v Speaker 5>Debbie wants to know what.

0:01:36.520 --> 0:01:40.120
<v Speaker 4>Misogyny looks like in mod in Australia. And Mary doesn't

0:01:40.120 --> 0:01:43.279
<v Speaker 4>need a motion in the House of Representatives, he needs

0:01:43.280 --> 0:01:43.840
<v Speaker 4>a miro.

0:01:44.400 --> 0:01:46.480
<v Speaker 5>Oh I remember the day that happened in him.

0:01:46.600 --> 0:01:48.560
<v Speaker 2>What a moment in history that must have been. There's

0:01:48.600 --> 0:01:50.400
<v Speaker 2>something still so empowering hearing it.

0:01:50.520 --> 0:01:54.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and she was just so passionate watching her deliver

0:01:54.360 --> 0:01:57.880
<v Speaker 3>that speech during question time, and I think it really

0:01:58.240 --> 0:02:01.600
<v Speaker 3>drew a line in the sand that enough is enough

0:02:01.920 --> 0:02:05.360
<v Speaker 3>and that women or women, not only women in public office,

0:02:05.520 --> 0:02:06.600
<v Speaker 3>but deserve a fair go.

0:02:06.920 --> 0:02:08.800
<v Speaker 2>Do you think it's any different now in twenty nineteen, though,

0:02:08.800 --> 0:02:10.560
<v Speaker 2>House progress really been made When you get people like

0:02:10.639 --> 0:02:13.200
<v Speaker 2>just Center ar Don, who's getting grief from rich white men.

0:02:13.520 --> 0:02:16.480
<v Speaker 2>If you're threatened by like Alan Jones threatening her with

0:02:16.520 --> 0:02:18.400
<v Speaker 2>all kind of physical act, which is horrible, I.

0:02:18.360 --> 0:02:20.239
<v Speaker 5>Think you are at an unfair advantage.

0:02:20.240 --> 0:02:22.720
<v Speaker 3>And I think you're always sort of trying to catch

0:02:22.800 --> 0:02:25.720
<v Speaker 3>up and trying to be heard equally. So that for

0:02:25.919 --> 0:02:29.160
<v Speaker 3>me and the connection to my little girl growing up

0:02:29.280 --> 0:02:32.160
<v Speaker 3>and potential for her and breaking.

0:02:31.840 --> 0:02:33.959
<v Speaker 2>The glass the world that she's growing into.

0:02:33.960 --> 0:02:36.160
<v Speaker 3>That was really important for me and I think really

0:02:36.200 --> 0:02:37.640
<v Speaker 3>important for our country as well.

0:02:37.720 --> 0:02:39.600
<v Speaker 2>In this clip as well, who is the idiot guy

0:02:39.639 --> 0:02:41.480
<v Speaker 2>that's trying to help her out? With the punchline that

0:02:41.560 --> 0:02:43.959
<v Speaker 2>she said you go to? He ruins the punchline about

0:02:44.400 --> 0:02:45.919
<v Speaker 2>she sums up what she's doing.

0:02:46.120 --> 0:02:49.240
<v Speaker 6>Haven't listening again, mirror, Yeah, she's got it, idiot, Let

0:02:49.320 --> 0:02:50.040
<v Speaker 6>that talk.

0:02:50.480 --> 0:02:54.880
<v Speaker 4>I will not be lectured about sexism and misogyny.

0:02:54.280 --> 0:02:56.280
<v Speaker 5>By this man. Debbie wants to.

<v Speaker 1>The Christian O'Connell Breakfast Show on Gold one oh four

0:03:20.800 --> 0:03:21.320
<v Speaker 1>point three.

<v Speaker 2>All right, what have you got next time? Brother? Big

0:03:23.600 --> 0:03:27.160
<v Speaker 2>moments then for Patrina Jones of this decade.

0:03:26.800 --> 0:03:31.000
<v Speaker 5>The day Prince died and when the news broke the.

0:03:31.080 --> 0:03:33.600
<v Speaker 7>Day we are coming on the air with breaking news

0:03:33.639 --> 0:03:37.680
<v Speaker 7>about the death of an American music icon. Prince, the innovative,

0:03:37.800 --> 0:03:39.640
<v Speaker 7>one of a kind artists who has given us so

0:03:39.800 --> 0:03:43.120
<v Speaker 7>much great music over the decades, has been found dead

0:03:43.480 --> 0:03:47.200
<v Speaker 7>at his Paisley Park compound in suburban Minneapolis.

0:03:47.760 --> 0:03:49.760
<v Speaker 3>Oh, it was just I can remember. I was coming

0:03:49.760 --> 0:03:51.960
<v Speaker 3>into work at four am and it was just breaking.

0:03:52.320 --> 0:03:54.800
<v Speaker 3>I remember coming into the newsroom and I couldn't believe

0:03:54.800 --> 0:03:57.480
<v Speaker 3>what I was seeing on the on the telly on

0:03:57.520 --> 0:04:00.120
<v Speaker 3>the screens of this break She was so young, he

0:04:00.200 --> 0:04:01.400
<v Speaker 3>was fifty seven, but it was.

0:04:01.400 --> 0:04:04.040
<v Speaker 2>A very reclusive guy. He did his live stuff and

0:04:04.080 --> 0:04:06.680
<v Speaker 2>then he just disappeared into the mansion. Then he didn't

0:04:06.680 --> 0:04:09.000
<v Speaker 2>really see him living that wild of a lifestyle.

0:04:09.080 --> 0:04:09.160
<v Speaker 1>Well.

0:04:09.160 --> 0:04:11.520
<v Speaker 3>It was strange though. Do you remember a week before

0:04:11.720 --> 0:04:15.640
<v Speaker 3>his plane was forced to make an emergency landing, rumors

0:04:15.840 --> 0:04:18.040
<v Speaker 3>controversy around it, and they said he had the flu,

0:04:18.160 --> 0:04:19.120
<v Speaker 3>but obviously he.

0:04:19.080 --> 0:04:23.040
<v Speaker 5>Was unwell then. But I loved his music.

0:04:23.200 --> 0:04:25.679
<v Speaker 2>I love it was a one off. He was a phenom.

0:04:25.760 --> 0:04:28.000
<v Speaker 2>You know, they wanting a generation of more than that talent.

0:04:28.040 --> 0:04:29.800
<v Speaker 2>There's like another worldliness about him.

0:04:29.839 --> 0:04:30.479
<v Speaker 5>It's a freak.

0:04:30.640 --> 0:04:33.040
<v Speaker 3>And I saw him at Melbourne Park in ninety one

0:04:33.279 --> 0:04:36.680
<v Speaker 3>Diamonds and Pearls. Oh wow, at that concert, and he'd

0:04:36.680 --> 0:04:40.159
<v Speaker 3>only played at Melbourne a few weeks before he died

0:04:40.240 --> 0:04:43.320
<v Speaker 3>at the Art Center. Gavin Miller had gone and seen him,

0:04:43.320 --> 0:04:45.800
<v Speaker 3>and I was really angry with myself because I thought, oh,

0:04:45.800 --> 0:04:48.800
<v Speaker 3>I'm too busy, really tired. You know, I can't make

0:04:48.839 --> 0:04:51.320
<v Speaker 3>the time to go. I'll save the money. And now,

0:04:51.360 --> 0:04:53.920
<v Speaker 3>of course it's my greatest regret because.

0:04:54.320 --> 0:04:56.520
<v Speaker 2>You still got to see him live and seeing him

0:04:56.880 --> 0:04:59.440
<v Speaker 2>something else. He was an amazing live performing That's what

0:04:59.480 --> 0:05:02.000
<v Speaker 2>he really came aim alive was in the Lovely He

0:05:02.040 --> 0:05:04.440
<v Speaker 2>did a run for a month that the two. The

0:05:04.440 --> 0:05:07.839
<v Speaker 2>O two is a twenty thousand seat of venue in London,

0:05:07.880 --> 0:05:10.960
<v Speaker 2>right he did thirty one shows every single night. Get

0:05:11.000 --> 0:05:12.960
<v Speaker 2>this as well. He was one of the first artists

0:05:12.960 --> 0:05:16.560
<v Speaker 2>that really sorted out ticket touts. Artists can solve it

0:05:16.600 --> 0:05:18.800
<v Speaker 2>if they really really want to. He set a fixed

0:05:18.800 --> 0:05:21.280
<v Speaker 2>price of saying no more than fifty bucks wherever you

0:05:21.360 --> 0:05:23.640
<v Speaker 2>are in the house. That's twenty thousand people. That's a

0:05:23.640 --> 0:05:26.160
<v Speaker 2>lot of money coming off his bottom line, so therefore

0:05:26.160 --> 0:05:28.440
<v Speaker 2>tells them that they couldn't bump it up higher. There

0:05:28.480 --> 0:05:30.800
<v Speaker 2>was just a standard fee for tickets, and he did

0:05:30.880 --> 0:05:34.320
<v Speaker 2>thirty one shows. I went twice, and it was one

0:05:34.360 --> 0:05:36.520
<v Speaker 2>of the most amazing things I've ever seen. It's just

0:05:36.600 --> 0:05:39.680
<v Speaker 2>that thing of actually seeing someone who's that beyond good.

0:05:39.839 --> 0:05:41.800
<v Speaker 2>Good doesn't even it's not a word. I can't. There

0:05:41.800 --> 0:05:44.839
<v Speaker 2>aren't words in English language to actually describe how great

0:05:44.880 --> 0:05:46.720
<v Speaker 2>it was seeing someone that good. And he did his

0:05:46.839 --> 0:05:48.640
<v Speaker 2>great as hits, but he was doing like long, sort

0:05:48.640 --> 0:05:51.240
<v Speaker 2>of fifteen minute medleys of them and they were amazing.

0:05:51.240 --> 0:05:53.880
<v Speaker 2>And the girls and the backing band with him, everything

0:05:53.960 --> 0:05:56.880
<v Speaker 2>was so tight and drilled and honed, and it was

0:05:56.920 --> 0:05:59.520
<v Speaker 2>just amazing to see. There was a sexiness and a

0:05:59.600 --> 0:06:03.080
<v Speaker 2>potent see about seeing him live. The atmosphere. There's twenty

0:06:03.120 --> 0:06:06.000
<v Speaker 2>thousand people changed. There was like an it was alchemy.

0:06:06.040 --> 0:06:07.360
<v Speaker 2>That's what you were witnessing with Prince.

0:06:07.440 --> 0:06:09.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, they'll never be another Prince. That's That's what I'm

0:06:09.800 --> 0:06:13.039
<v Speaker 3>so sad about. He was so so unique and guys's

0:06:13.080 --> 0:06:16.200
<v Speaker 3>prowess in his music. One of the great examples is

0:06:16.240 --> 0:06:19.560
<v Speaker 3>this early demo session of Nothing Compares to You.

0:06:19.680 --> 0:06:21.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I didn't know he wrote this and that's so cool.

0:06:21.760 --> 0:06:28.480
<v Speaker 2>Gave it away to shaneila Connor. Have I listened to this? No,

0:06:32.920 --> 0:06:35.800
<v Speaker 2>they're just releasing lots of his old stuff from the

0:06:35.920 --> 0:06:38.360
<v Speaker 2>vaults because he made.

0:06:38.160 --> 0:06:40.360
<v Speaker 5>So much material. Wasn't there still not out?

0:06:40.400 --> 0:06:42.240
<v Speaker 2>And then they're talking about doing one of these hologram

0:06:42.320 --> 0:06:43.920
<v Speaker 2>tours as well, which I would go and see these

0:06:43.920 --> 0:06:46.760
<v Speaker 2>hologram tours getting better and better. Well said though Perhassly,

0:06:46.839 --> 0:06:47.920
<v Speaker 2>that was the passing of a legend.

0:06:48.160 --> 0:06:51.599
<v Speaker 1>Christian O'Connell Breakfast Show Gold one oh four point three.

0:06:51.760 --> 0:06:54.200
<v Speaker 2>This morning, Patrina Jones has been taking us through some

0:06:54.240 --> 0:06:56.719
<v Speaker 2>of the big moments for her in this decade, because

0:06:56.760 --> 0:06:58.680
<v Speaker 2>we were ending the near of a decade, not just

0:06:58.720 --> 0:07:01.599
<v Speaker 2>the end of twenty nine. Team. We begin next year

0:07:01.600 --> 0:07:04.120
<v Speaker 2>with a new decade, and we're asking our house and

0:07:04.200 --> 0:07:05.559
<v Speaker 2>you what do you think of the big talking points?

0:07:05.560 --> 0:07:07.599
<v Speaker 2>What are they going to be of this decade? What's

0:07:07.640 --> 0:07:08.520
<v Speaker 2>your last one? Perts?

0:07:08.520 --> 0:07:10.440
<v Speaker 3>Well, I think it's got to be Donald Trump, doesn't it?

0:07:10.600 --> 0:07:14.120
<v Speaker 3>Oh God, I still can't believe. Actually, when I'm writing

0:07:14.160 --> 0:07:18.720
<v Speaker 3>news scripts that I'm writing US President Donald Trump, it.

0:07:18.360 --> 0:07:21.000
<v Speaker 2>Just doesn't to me. He's like he's a creation of

0:07:21.040 --> 0:07:23.239
<v Speaker 2>the times. He came out, so it's happened in Britman

0:07:23.320 --> 0:07:25.840
<v Speaker 2>Brexit with Boris Johnson and happening all over the world.

0:07:25.880 --> 0:07:28.880
<v Speaker 2>He's like a modern Frankenstein. Who is he is? He's

0:07:28.880 --> 0:07:31.360
<v Speaker 2>a perfect symbol of what is going on in America

0:07:31.400 --> 0:07:32.320
<v Speaker 2>and other countries.

0:07:32.520 --> 0:07:34.520
<v Speaker 3>Do you think people would have said that when Ronald

0:07:34.600 --> 0:07:37.360
<v Speaker 3>Reagan was elected, like he was a former actor. What

0:07:37.520 --> 0:07:41.240
<v Speaker 3>have they seen a former actor as potentially the leader

0:07:41.280 --> 0:07:45.480
<v Speaker 3>of the free world. It's just, you know, so November

0:07:45.520 --> 0:07:49.920
<v Speaker 3>twenty sixteen, he came to power so much controversy, but

0:07:50.280 --> 0:07:53.400
<v Speaker 3>he got something like fifty six point nine percent of

0:07:53.440 --> 0:07:56.320
<v Speaker 3>the vote. People voted for him, and of course his

0:07:56.480 --> 0:08:00.600
<v Speaker 3>big massive catch cry during his whole Republican campaign was this.

0:08:01.200 --> 0:08:06.040
<v Speaker 2>And we will make America great again. God bless you

0:08:06.360 --> 0:08:08.160
<v Speaker 2>and good night, I love you.

0:08:08.880 --> 0:08:10.720
<v Speaker 5>We just get swept up in it, don't they?

0:08:11.040 --> 0:08:14.520
<v Speaker 2>The entertainment of it and the rebel rousing of the crowd.

0:08:15.440 --> 0:08:17.600
<v Speaker 2>It's an incredible story, isn't it? Though? Donald Trump? How

0:08:17.640 --> 0:08:20.440
<v Speaker 2>he got into power and how he's still there? Do

0:08:20.480 --> 0:08:22.240
<v Speaker 2>you remember when he got in like it won't last,

0:08:22.280 --> 0:08:25.080
<v Speaker 2>he'd be impeached. They tried many, many many many may

0:08:25.080 --> 0:08:27.400
<v Speaker 2>time and who knows what might happen there. But I

0:08:27.440 --> 0:08:29.440
<v Speaker 2>just although it was going to be assassinated within a

0:08:29.520 --> 0:08:32.000
<v Speaker 2>year and stuff like that, he's still there and not

0:08:32.040 --> 0:08:33.720
<v Speaker 2>just that. No matter what he does and what he

0:08:33.720 --> 0:08:38.440
<v Speaker 2>says and insults people various groups, women, minorities, it doesn't matter.

0:08:38.559 --> 0:08:39.920
<v Speaker 3>I know. How is that?

0:08:40.000 --> 0:08:40.640
<v Speaker 5>I don't think that.

0:08:40.600 --> 0:08:43.360
<v Speaker 2>Would fly anyone who's supposed to be running a country

0:08:43.400 --> 0:08:45.880
<v Speaker 2>the size of America. How have you got time to

0:08:45.920 --> 0:08:47.120
<v Speaker 2>hang out on social media?

0:08:47.320 --> 0:08:48.559
<v Speaker 5>Loves his Twitter account?

0:08:49.040 --> 0:08:50.720
<v Speaker 2>He must have been We need you in this room

0:08:50.720 --> 0:08:55.560
<v Speaker 2>for another briefings. Misspelled there? How do you spelled Korea?

0:08:55.640 --> 0:08:57.760
<v Speaker 5>But how is history going to judge him?

0:08:57.840 --> 0:09:00.520
<v Speaker 3>How is history in ten twenty years it's going to

0:09:00.559 --> 0:09:01.320
<v Speaker 3>look back on?

0:09:01.760 --> 0:09:04.720
<v Speaker 4>Or has he changed the role so completely now that

0:09:05.160 --> 0:09:07.559
<v Speaker 4>I mean, he's pushed the branderies in so many ways

0:09:07.600 --> 0:09:09.520
<v Speaker 4>and shown that you can still stay in power.

0:09:09.800 --> 0:09:12.240
<v Speaker 2>I think he's really changed that role. I always like

0:09:12.280 --> 0:09:14.720
<v Speaker 2>to think that with politics, people are smart and they

0:09:14.760 --> 0:09:16.840
<v Speaker 2>get wise. Even someone they elect to do that they

0:09:16.880 --> 0:09:18.560
<v Speaker 2>thought might do a job and then he didn't. If

0:09:18.600 --> 0:09:20.000
<v Speaker 2>you think about the poor people of America who did

0:09:20.040 --> 0:09:22.000
<v Speaker 2>elect him, and how he's really screwing them over, he's

0:09:22.040 --> 0:09:24.319
<v Speaker 2>not helping them at all, and how politics, hopefully we

0:09:24.400 --> 0:09:26.360
<v Speaker 2>have to believe that people get rinsed out. It's like

0:09:26.440 --> 0:09:28.760
<v Speaker 2>it cleans it south of the political otherwise is so

0:09:29.120 --> 0:09:34.600
<v Speaker 2>so bleak. I know here on bleak FM. Let's hope

0:09:34.800 --> 0:09:37.000
<v Speaker 2>the next year he gets rinsed out the system like

0:09:37.000 --> 0:09:38.040
<v Speaker 2>a dirty old sock.
