1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:04,920
Speaker 1: Christ Yeah, welcome friends to the Christian o'connells Show podcast tonight.

2
00:00:04,960 --> 00:00:06,880
Speaker 1: It's back on our favorite TV show on the moment

3
00:00:06,960 --> 00:00:11,080
Speaker 1: is Sas Australia. It's a It's a great season of

4
00:00:11,080 --> 00:00:13,119
Speaker 1: it this year, isn't it. It's really good. I think

5
00:00:13,200 --> 00:00:16,320
Speaker 1: the mix of the celebrities they've got in there on fantasts,

6
00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:18,720
Speaker 1: I think Jana Pittman is my favorite one.

7
00:00:18,760 --> 00:00:19,239
Speaker 2: She is.

8
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:19,920
Speaker 1: It's amazing.

9
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:22,279
Speaker 3: I think we both do the same thing. We sit

10
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:24,800
Speaker 3: there and watch it and for every challenge they do,

11
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:27,319
Speaker 3: you ask yourself, how well would I do in a

12
00:00:27,400 --> 00:00:30,920
Speaker 3: similar challenge? The monkey bars one where they have essentially

13
00:00:30,960 --> 00:00:32,800
Speaker 3: they've got the ladder strapped to the bottom of a

14
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:35,880
Speaker 3: chopper which is flying across a lake, and they've got

15
00:00:35,880 --> 00:00:38,199
Speaker 3: to get down on the ladder monkey bar across and

16
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:40,519
Speaker 3: pull themselves up into the other side of helicopter.

17
00:00:40,640 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 1: I mean that alone, right, that is extreme. I looked

18
00:00:44,080 --> 00:00:46,360
Speaker 1: to that and thought that must be so hard because

19
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:49,320
Speaker 1: your brain the fair part of it. You're going to

20
00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:52,839
Speaker 1: think whether it's helicopter blades and Middleton, the chief instructor,

21
00:00:52,880 --> 00:00:55,360
Speaker 1: is yelling at you. At one point he sort of

22
00:00:55,960 --> 00:01:00,360
Speaker 1: ripped off someone's grip to let them drop fifty into

23
00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:04,200
Speaker 1: a body of water. What is the end of it?

24
00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:04,880
Speaker 2: Why are they.

25
00:01:04,800 --> 00:01:08,680
Speaker 1: Doing this right? So and then so? It must be really.

26
00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:11,280
Speaker 3: Hard to see. I had the opposite reaction to that one.

27
00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:13,520
Speaker 3: I sat on the couch and top banker. I would

28
00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,319
Speaker 3: be assuming for this monkey bars for me, this is easy.

29
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,319
Speaker 1: How many pullups can you do? They're like that's what

30
00:01:18,360 --> 00:01:21,440
Speaker 1: I call that, old old fashioned strength, and it's like grips.

31
00:01:21,480 --> 00:01:23,479
Speaker 3: Well, this is the thing. I got tested with it

32
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:26,360
Speaker 3: as we were out with Luna yesterday and walk past

33
00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,880
Speaker 3: a playground. Play grounds are open again, and Australia was

34
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:33,039
Speaker 3: feeling instead of monkey bars and being He goes, well,

35
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:35,200
Speaker 3: if you say you're so good at it, let's see

36
00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:36,120
Speaker 3: you on the monkey bars.

37
00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 1: Wow.

38
00:01:37,319 --> 00:01:39,960
Speaker 3: Monkey bars are so much harder than I remember as

39
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,800
Speaker 3: a kid. As a kid used to just fly through me.

40
00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,080
Speaker 1: You would hang there like chatting to your mum and dad.

41
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:47,080
Speaker 1: You could just hang there.

42
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:50,040
Speaker 3: Hang upside down, do two at a time, like I

43
00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,840
Speaker 3: even remember, like letting go and jumping and then grabbing

44
00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:53,720
Speaker 3: onto the next one.

45
00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:55,960
Speaker 1: Well, I don't remember doing that chart and I've never

46
00:01:56,000 --> 00:01:58,440
Speaker 1: remember doing that. Why are you insert to Salai? Don't

47
00:01:58,480 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 1: waste time hanging out.

48
00:01:59,440 --> 00:02:02,360
Speaker 3: With us, Tarzan is exactly what I imagined as I

49
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:04,400
Speaker 3: got on this playground yesterday that I would be able

50
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:05,280
Speaker 3: to do and show.

51
00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:07,520
Speaker 1: I mean, I know you're going to become a dad

52
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:09,600
Speaker 1: next year. You can't just shut up and stop working

53
00:02:09,639 --> 00:02:13,960
Speaker 1: out to play crowd as a grown ass man with

54
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:16,400
Speaker 1: a dog. People talk about people like you, they move

55
00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:17,400
Speaker 1: their kids away, going to.

56
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:21,480
Speaker 3: Is he kids clear the path? Jackie boys coming on

57
00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:22,359
Speaker 3: the monkey bars?

58
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:25,120
Speaker 1: How many did you get to to get halfway across?

59
00:02:25,480 --> 00:02:28,040
Speaker 3: No, because it's so much harder than you. Remember when's

60
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:29,320
Speaker 3: the last time you did monkey bars?

61
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 1: Well, I think in the eighties when I was about

62
00:02:32,120 --> 00:02:32,840
Speaker 1: nine or ten.

63
00:02:33,360 --> 00:02:35,720
Speaker 3: To the monkey bars this weekend, both of you. You

64
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:36,400
Speaker 3: what the grip?

65
00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:40,000
Speaker 1: That's a treat for Saturday morning monkey bars? What nine

66
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,000
Speaker 1: till ten? I have to put in my color coded calendar.

67
00:02:42,080 --> 00:02:44,880
Speaker 3: Jack You won't need it now, I'm telling you now,

68
00:02:45,120 --> 00:02:48,040
Speaker 3: you'll need five minutes to realize it's way harder, harder.

69
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,760
Speaker 3: What hurt the grip strength? So you just hold onto

70
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 3: it and you start falling off and it's none of this,

71
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:54,639
Speaker 3: tarzand like.

72
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,679
Speaker 1: Because we wait here, we're bigger than when we're a kids.

73
00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:59,600
Speaker 3: I think that's right, And so I was. I got

74
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:01,720
Speaker 3: three or four bars going like this, what like one

75
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:04,000
Speaker 3: at a time, like little baby steps, and then I

76
00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:04,520
Speaker 3: gave up.

77
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:05,920
Speaker 1: Do you know what, I'm going to go around them

78
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:07,480
Speaker 1: today and it's going to get out the kids come

79
00:03:07,520 --> 00:03:10,440
Speaker 1: back here in forty years when you've met chee, see

80
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:12,919
Speaker 1: how you get on what else? Like monkey bars? And

81
00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:15,280
Speaker 1: because actually most of us as adults, you haven't done

82
00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 1: that since you were a kid. Sly when you go

83
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:19,120
Speaker 1: back to stuff that you could do with these, you

84
00:03:19,160 --> 00:03:21,239
Speaker 1: didn't even think about. It wasn't even a thing. Yeah,

85
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:24,480
Speaker 1: it was like walking is So it's actually humbling, isn't

86
00:03:24,520 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 1: It's embarrassing as a kid.

87
00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:28,000
Speaker 3: I don't even remember having to learn how to do

88
00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 3: monkey bars in something that we innately naturally did.

89
00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:35,880
Speaker 1: Christian Connell's show podcasts, what is a lot harder in

90
00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:37,840
Speaker 1: ours have grown up that it was as a kid.

91
00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:42,720
Speaker 1: Chad found this out. Monkey bars. Why don't they have

92
00:03:42,800 --> 00:03:44,520
Speaker 1: them in gyms? I bet they do. I think they're

93
00:03:44,520 --> 00:03:46,440
Speaker 1: doing those like crossfed gyms, don't they.

94
00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:48,720
Speaker 3: Yeah, I haven't probably done them since I was a

95
00:03:48,760 --> 00:03:50,760
Speaker 3: little kid. And you think you're going to glide through

96
00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:53,440
Speaker 3: the air like Tarzan from tree to tree, branch to brand,

97
00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:56,320
Speaker 3: but you don't. It's a lot harder than you remember.

98
00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 1: I saw a kid the other day, young lad, right,

99
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 1: and he was just popping a doing a wheelie down

100
00:04:01,240 --> 00:04:03,040
Speaker 1: the street. Not to impress anyone. He was doing it

101
00:04:03,040 --> 00:04:06,240
Speaker 1: because that's what you did, right, And I remember years

102
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 1: ago and trying one again. It's like it's actually scary

103
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:13,839
Speaker 1: because you think if I fell off, it will pick

104
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,240
Speaker 1: me up and mend me like a broken bar. I'll

105
00:04:16,240 --> 00:04:17,880
Speaker 1: be brushed into the cup tree.

106
00:04:17,960 --> 00:04:20,719
Speaker 3: And that's why you don't see many O monos.

107
00:04:20,440 --> 00:04:24,120
Speaker 1: Exactly bringing them back. Actually don't. It'd be dangerous to

108
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:28,039
Speaker 1: actually recommend listeners to do that. I'd get told off, Patsy,

109
00:04:28,080 --> 00:04:29,400
Speaker 1: What do you think is a lot harder? Nails are

110
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 1: grown up? Speaking of bikes, definitely dinking someone on your bike.

111
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:36,280
Speaker 1: I can remember dinking my girlfriend on the handlebarsball bike

112
00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:38,479
Speaker 1: home from school. Dare do that now?

113
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 3: I haven't got the balance?

114
00:04:39,680 --> 00:04:44,640
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, take some coolness. Marianna Coome oning, good morning, Christian.

115
00:04:44,640 --> 00:04:46,080
Speaker 1: How are you. I'm good? Are you well?

116
00:04:47,160 --> 00:04:49,200
Speaker 2: Yeah? Good thing love the first time caller.

117
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,040
Speaker 3: So yeah, we.

118
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:53,440
Speaker 1: Almost need like an little thing we play for first time,

119
00:04:54,400 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 1: first time. Wow, thank you very much for taking the

120
00:04:57,400 --> 00:04:59,240
Speaker 1: risk and joining the show. So I appreciate it.

121
00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, thank you for having me.

122
00:05:01,680 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 1: How's it going so far, by the way, Yeah, good, excellent,

123
00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:08,360
Speaker 1: all right? And what's harder as a as a grown up? Marianna?

124
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:12,800
Speaker 2: Well, I can attest to. What's much harder to do

125
00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:16,760
Speaker 2: as an adult is roll to roller skates? Oh god, yeah,

126
00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:18,039
Speaker 2: roller skating.

127
00:05:18,480 --> 00:05:20,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, I still love doing that as a kid. Now,

128
00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:21,880
Speaker 1: what happens? You wobbly the balance?

129
00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:26,479
Speaker 2: Oh it's no, it's so after fifteen h so maybe

130
00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,599
Speaker 2: a few years ago, maybe six to seven years ago,

131
00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:30,960
Speaker 2: I thought on put them on. You know, I had

132
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:32,640
Speaker 2: some nice brite you know, the white ones with the

133
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:35,240
Speaker 2: red wheels. They were really popular when I was a kid,

134
00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:39,240
Speaker 2: and chuck those on and oh gosh, it's so hard

135
00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:43,960
Speaker 2: and your whole brain rattles, and because you know, on

136
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,919
Speaker 2: the street, on the footpath, so it's definitely not the same.

137
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 2: I used to be used to be a roller skating queens. Yeah,

138
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:53,960
Speaker 2: so we were really into it, but yeah, your brain,

139
00:05:54,160 --> 00:05:55,599
Speaker 2: you can't too hard.

140
00:05:55,880 --> 00:05:57,880
Speaker 3: Is that an official thing that the roller ink gives

141
00:05:57,920 --> 00:05:59,720
Speaker 3: you a roller skating queen? Or is that just something

142
00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:00,440
Speaker 3: you were called king.

143
00:06:04,400 --> 00:06:09,400
Speaker 2: But the brain rattles. I can the brain rattles. That's

144
00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:11,000
Speaker 2: how I can explain it. The feeling.

145
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 1: Marianna, thank you very much for giving us a call.

146
00:06:13,600 --> 00:06:15,040
Speaker 1: Do you know what for the first time? Goody, you

147
00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:16,159
Speaker 1: smashed it. Well done.

148
00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 2: Oh, thank you, thank you.

149
00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:23,040
Speaker 1: I have a nice week you too, Bye bye bye, Kathy,

150
00:06:24,000 --> 00:06:27,200
Speaker 1: Good morning, Good morning everyone, well, good morning. And what's

151
00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:29,520
Speaker 1: harder as a grown up? Kathy ah?

152
00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:30,360
Speaker 3: The hula hoop.

153
00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,200
Speaker 2: I used to be able to do it all my

154
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:33,480
Speaker 2: school lunchtime.

155
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:36,680
Speaker 3: I'd have the pull of hoop going constantly. I'd be

156
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 3: walking around.

157
00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:40,520
Speaker 2: It's the outdoor play area.

158
00:06:40,680 --> 00:06:41,760
