Speaker 2: which is a global megasport.

18
00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:57,520
Speaker 3: It is a great question because the Olympics is hot

19
00:00:57,600 --> 00:00:58,280
Speaker 3: right now, right.

20
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,480
Speaker 2: Now, it's paid day by this weekend.

21
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:03,280

23
00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:07,639
Speaker 2: Going to go something that happened a couple of years ago.

24
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:10,040
Speaker 4: I sandy fades real quickly.

25
00:01:10,120 --> 00:01:11,640
Speaker 3: They've got to get rid of the scooters out of

26
00:01:11,680 --> 00:01:14,160
Speaker 3: the way so people don't trip over them in the city.

27
00:01:14,400 --> 00:01:18,759
Speaker 4: What are they banning the scooters? What banning banning? Well,

28
00:01:18,760 --> 00:01:19,759
Speaker 4: there's no more of them.

29
00:01:19,720 --> 00:01:22,560
Speaker 3: No more they have they have thirty days to remove them.

30
00:01:22,600 --> 00:01:23,679
Speaker 3: The companies who put them.

31
00:01:23,520 --> 00:01:24,840
Speaker 4: There, Why are they going to end up? Not like

32
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:25,679
Speaker 4: the bikes?

33
00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:30,960
Speaker 3: And they are they getting rid of them Melbourne wide

34
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:33,040
Speaker 3: or is it just in the c just in the CBD.

35
00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:34,920
Speaker 4: So push them out to the sea. You can still

36
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:37,040
Speaker 4: have a private scooter, but you can't hire them.

37
00:01:37,440 --> 00:01:40,120
Speaker 2: Some people do go way too quick along the streets

38
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:42,160
Speaker 2: with them and stuff like that. The thing that annoys

39
00:01:42,200 --> 00:01:44,399
Speaker 2: me is when I see someone pats and eyes age

40
00:01:44,680 --> 00:01:47,440
Speaker 2: booting along some of that on the road, like hurting

41
00:01:47,480 --> 00:01:49,800
Speaker 2: on They just seem so dangerous. So Riha, what can

42
00:01:49,840 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 2: you tell us about the new games that have been

43
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:53,080
Speaker 2: added to LA in four years time?

44
00:01:53,320 --> 00:01:56,120
Speaker 1: Well, I just saw America has done a very American

45
00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:57,640
Speaker 1: things for the new Olympics.

46
00:01:58,000 --> 00:01:59,600
Speaker 3: These are some of the sports they've added.

47
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:04,880
Speaker 1: Flag American football means like it's like not tackle, like

48
00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:06,360
Speaker 1: you just rip a little tag.

49
00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:12,520
Speaker 3: Version you play at school. It's like ahind and seek.

50
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:13,679
Speaker 4: Yeah.

51
00:02:13,800 --> 00:02:16,840
Speaker 3: And also American football is no other nation is playing that.

52
00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:21,040
Speaker 3: It's in the name. So I don't know who's possibly

53
00:02:21,080 --> 00:02:22,200
Speaker 3: going to challenge America.

54
00:02:22,400 --> 00:02:24,200
Speaker 2: Everyone around the world now was going to recruit some

55
00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:26,320
Speaker 2: people and get them over from rugby or something.

56
00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:28,919
Speaker 4: I don't know, because no one else has that code.

57
00:02:29,120 --> 00:02:30,720
Speaker 1: No and no one, I mean, no one even plays

58
00:02:30,760 --> 00:02:34,200
Speaker 1: American football flag American football, So I don't know.

59
00:02:34,720 --> 00:02:36,800
Speaker 3: Why that even, like, how would that even that's an

60
00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:37,680
Speaker 3: automatic gold medal.

61
00:02:38,840 --> 00:02:41,120
Speaker 4: Yeah, they're trying to call those goals back, aren't they.

62
00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:42,360
Speaker 3: Yes, exactly from China.

63
00:02:42,440 --> 00:02:48,119
Speaker 1: Then they've got baseball again, that's all right, more America

64
00:02:48,200 --> 00:02:53,360
Speaker 1: and Japan. Yeah, and then lacrosse, which is like another

65
00:02:53,400 --> 00:02:55,480
Speaker 1: sport that they play all through high school. And I

66
00:02:55,480 --> 00:02:58,160
Speaker 1: don't know any other country that plays lacrosse. The only

67
00:02:58,200 --> 00:02:59,919
Speaker 1: place you see lacrosse is in the teen move.

68
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:01,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, and the US are.

69
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:05,520
Speaker 2: Playing its lacrosse, the one with the stick and the

70
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:08,640
Speaker 2: sort of nets the little hook yeah yeah, a bit

71
00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:09,320
Speaker 2: like hurling.

72
00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's it. Yeah yeah yeah.

73
00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:16,400
Speaker 3: Which we don't all know so well, but how did

74
00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:17,040
Speaker 3: this get through?

75
00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:20,320
Speaker 2: Like well, I think the host nation is allowed to

76
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:22,760
Speaker 2: have a couple of sports that they.

77
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:29,440
Speaker 3: Spence were worldwide used in other countries that are actually competing.

78
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,400
Speaker 2: Paris did break Dancer was one of them and we

79
00:03:32,520 --> 00:03:36,440
Speaker 2: know how that ended. Word ray gum ain't. That isn't

80
00:03:36,440 --> 00:03:39,000
Speaker 2: troubling any future games ever again.

81
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:42,520
Speaker 3: But that is equivalent to Sydney having done AFL in

82
00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:45,480
Speaker 3: the year two thousand, which literally know other play.

83
00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:48,440
Speaker 4: Exactly, So Brisbane when you get in twenty thirty.

84
00:03:48,160 --> 00:03:50,480
Speaker 3: Two, guarantee that it work for yourself.

85
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:54,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, Marathon Pokey's you know is twenty four hours on

86
00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:58,080
Speaker 2: the Pokey. We only played the only code played in

87
00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:02,480
Speaker 2: this country, Pokys Goomberg drinking. We need to stack it.

88
00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:06,000
Speaker 2: Wait in Australia's advantage. In fact, what do you think

89
00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 2: what should be?

90
00:04:07,640 --> 00:04:10,880
Speaker 3: Should we have a Brisbane.

91
00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 2: Guarantee gold okay that is played only here in Australia.

92
00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:15,040
Speaker 2: I think only Australians would become good at it.

93
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:18,280
Speaker 3: Shoeies sh shoey, yes, instead of it.

94
00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,599
Speaker 2: Has to be the artistic shoey, so it's gymnastics but

95
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:21,719
Speaker 2: with shoeies.

96
00:04:21,920 --> 00:04:27,960
Speaker 1: Instead of breaking and replace that with the Nutbush because you're.

97
00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:31,800
Speaker 4: Right, Team Nutbush. I watched that the Christian O'Connell show podcast.

98
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 2: So when Australia hosts the Olympics twenty thirty two in Brisbane,

99
00:04:35,960 --> 00:04:38,760
Speaker 2: Australia would be allowed to have a couple of demonstration events.

100
00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:42,919
Speaker 2: Normally this is an amazing opportunity as America now showing

101
00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,320
Speaker 2: is to pick sports that only your fellow countrymen and

102
00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:50,240
Speaker 2: women are guaranteed or shoeing to get gold. So Australia

103
00:04:50,279 --> 00:04:54,080
Speaker 2: should carry on that fine tradition and just create any

104
00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:57,320
Speaker 2: any event basically that you're guaranteed as Australian to be

105
00:04:57,320 --> 00:05:00,599
Speaker 2: advantaged to get a gold at the moment on the tanks,

106
00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:04,840
Speaker 2: thong throwing instead of the discus. Now it's gonna be

107
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:10,120
Speaker 2: chicken palmer, bungee smugglers, hurdles of fly swatser grain Lacrosse

108
00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:12,640
Speaker 2: is the national sport of Canada. Therefore we sh are

109
00:05:12,680 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 2: bringing coffee making. You're right, Baristas.

110
00:05:19,279 --> 00:05:23,200
Speaker 3: A kid of my high school competed internationally in some

111
00:05:23,279 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 3: kind of Barista World Barista Championships.

112
00:05:25,880 --> 00:05:28,240
Speaker 2: I think that for the last couple of years it's

113
00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:31,799
Speaker 2: been in Australia who's actually won the World Barista Games.

114
00:05:32,520 --> 00:05:35,680
Speaker 3: Australian rules football actually has made an appearance at the

115
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:37,640
Speaker 3: Olympics in nineteen.

116
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,080
Speaker 4: Fifty six was at the Melbourne One.

117
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:42,000
Speaker 3: That was Melbourne not to compete for medals, so other

118
00:05:42,040 --> 00:05:45,120
Speaker 3: countries when competing, but Australia put on a demonstration match

119
00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,159
Speaker 3: to show the world during the Olympics what AFL was.

120
00:05:49,360 --> 00:05:51,680
Speaker 3: It was immediately after the It was at the MCG

121
00:05:51,800 --> 00:05:55,159
Speaker 3: thirty thousand people immediately after the bronze medal soccer match

122
00:05:55,200 --> 00:05:58,599
Speaker 3: between Bulgaria and India concluded. Wow, they played.

123
00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,159
Speaker 4: That's what you call in TV. Are tough lead in

124
00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:05,919
Speaker 4: They had an already people.

125
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:08,719
Speaker 2: Are barely awake after that snooze fest by the sound

126
00:06:08,720 --> 00:06:09,000
Speaker 2: of it.

127
00:06:09,040 --> 00:06:11,680
Speaker 3: They had a running commentary amplified to the audience to

128
00:06:11,720 --> 00:06:16,080
Speaker 3: explain what was going on that this is the best part.

129
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,080
Speaker 3: Players had to deal with various hazards on the ground

130
00:06:19,200 --> 00:06:22,599
Speaker 3: left over from previous events, chiefly the Olympic flag pole.

131
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:26,320
Speaker 3: The fifty foot structure was left standing to the conclusion

132
00:06:26,360 --> 00:06:30,279
Speaker 3: of the closing ceremony and sat awkwardly in the forward pocket.

133
00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:33,119
Speaker 3: The plinth installed for the inside lane of the running

134
00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:35,800
Speaker 3: track also posts problems for footballers who are at risk

135
00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:38,080
Speaker 3: of tripping on it if they did not identify the

136
00:06:38,120 --> 00:06:40,039
Speaker 3: sharp rise in height of the surface.

137
00:06:40,120 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 2: You know what, I get the fee brism based on

138
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,240
Speaker 2: the facilities that you're going to see a lot of hazards.

139
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:49,880
Speaker 2: I think obviously maybe the Cinti man E scooters you

140
00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,280
Speaker 2: could add them into the Venodrome to be honest, and

141
00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:55,480
Speaker 2: the Karen any of their ideas for events that Australia

142
00:06:55,480 --> 00:06:56,680
Speaker 2: could win gold at.

143
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,159
Speaker 4: Well Christian Connell's show podcast.

144
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:02,960

145
00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:05,480
Speaker 2: must stay on this is the thong race.

146
00:07:05,760 --> 00:07:07,480
Speaker 3: We have we come back to do this.

147
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,320
Speaker 2: It's a good way to showcase to Brisbane. What a

148
00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:14,040
Speaker 2: glorious event this could be. Maybe for the opening ceremony,

149
00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:18,000
Speaker 2: start with your best stuff. I stay Christian, what about

150
00:07:18,240 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 2: Brisbane needs magpie dodging can be an artistic routine. Sprint

151
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:26,440
Speaker 2: races against them? Hard to organize that, Christian beer sculling,

152
00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:31,920
Speaker 2: the last person standing winds Vegelmie eating sandwiches. That's from

Speaker 4: Oh, roadkill, roadkill dodge.

182
00:08:44,960 --> 00:08:48,600

183
00:08:48,640 --> 00:08:51,720

Speaker 1: Bruce Highway, just put them on it in a car

190
