Speaker 1: Christ Yeah, welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 2: Coome on in Jackie Boy Morning, guys, Come on in
Speaker 2: Pats Morning, Pats.
Speaker 3: How's the family. What's going on for you guys?
Speaker 4: Audrey got home yesterday. They're doing fully fledged science from
Speaker 4: year seven this year.
Speaker 5: So I never took that elective fully fledged.
Speaker 3: I did hardcore science.
Speaker 4: But it's like the first proper whatever, three lessons a week. Anyway,
Speaker 4: they had to lab safety top of the list. You know,
Speaker 4: there's a lot of kids that haven't been in a
Speaker 4: lab before from outside school, so they've.
Speaker 3: Got to do the base. Aren't familiar with science, that's right,
Speaker 3: So what.
Speaker 4: That involved was a general knowledge of safety. And they
Speaker 4: had to get their buns and burner license because it's
Speaker 4: obviously an open flame. So Audrey came home yesterday they
Speaker 4: got a certificate bunsen burner license.
Speaker 3: I have all these licenses. So in the UK you
Speaker 3: don't have a pen license. There's nothing like that.
Speaker 5: So you still can't write with a pen, no a
Speaker 5: sharp That's why every way to have a crown. Basically
Speaker 5: in this country you're not allowed to burn.
Speaker 3: And so there's a buns and berner lice there's a
Speaker 3: buns and burner. Both have you both got yours? Nechol
Speaker 3: guys to school?
Speaker 4: We just yeah, the teacher was saying to her to
Speaker 4: the class, Now you have to be very careful. You
Speaker 4: have to tie your hair back because my hair actually
Speaker 4: caught fire when I was at school with the bumps
Speaker 4: and burner. I got two classes.
Speaker 3: Was your hair were you doing licking it the fame
Speaker 3: or something?
Speaker 4: So she said, all hair must go back. I don't
Speaker 4: know have to have to wear hairnuts or anything.
Speaker 5: But do your hair really catch on fire?
Speaker 4: The teacher said it.
Speaker 3: I thought, how those stories, don't they They tell those
Speaker 3: stories to scare the kids.
Speaker 4: And I said to Audio, all that's hilarious because mister
Speaker 4: Novak's who we had for science, used to use the
Speaker 4: buns and burner to light his cigarette.
Speaker 3: No, we are teacher used to do that too, were
Speaker 3: light his pipe. He'd actually smoke a pipe. Right, the
Speaker 3: class are acrid smoke and sometimes you go better open
Speaker 3: the window. Actually, anyway, this big old cancero's pipe that
Speaker 3: he just liked casually with his bunts and burner. You
Speaker 3: don't don't you lot do this or anything like that?
Speaker 3: Where was I then start using his pipe like a
Speaker 3: pointer on the board. I got something. It was pretty
Speaker 3: cool trick. Actually, I hated science. I found science of school,
Speaker 3: but using the buns and burner when it was an experiment,
Speaker 3: that was the only interesting bit of it.
Speaker 5: I got a band in year seven from doing practical
Speaker 5: experiments in science. Beaker on?
Speaker 3: Would you mean breaking a big one of those conical flasks?
Speaker 5: Yes, I was just pulling a cork out of the
Speaker 5: top of it. I don't know what happened, but it smashed.
Speaker 5: And the science I don't know.
Speaker 3: What happened, but it smashed. You sound like a kid.
Speaker 3: What happened there? Post? I don't know what happened.
Speaker 5: He thought I was some kind of prankster like you did,
Speaker 5: and he got He banned us from practical experiments for
Speaker 5: the year. Oh, I think you're a funny guy, breaking
Speaker 5: cast clan, breaking the beaker? Well, are you in honest accident?
Speaker 3: Did anyone remember any of their science experiments? The only
Speaker 3: one was burning a potassium strip for some reason, the
Speaker 3: one we did, which it is one term, as well
Speaker 3: as burning a penut.
Speaker 5: What did you learn from that?
Speaker 3: Nothing? We just had to make notes in the color
Speaker 3: that changed. I think this guy just was just jaded,
Speaker 3: just checked out the old peanut burning for them.

Speaker 3: I'm actually with Jack on this one. Pavlova is overrated.
Speaker 3: I know it's on Australian Now. Is not as nice
Speaker 3: as people think they are, Johnny Christian, I cannot stand
Speaker 3: Pavlova as well. That's from merchant Now. So it's actually
Speaker 3: take the time to email me this morning. It's a
Speaker 3: lot of effort email someone, isn't it. Christian one hundred
Speaker 3: percent agree with back Jack when it comes to the
Speaker 3: pavlov disgusting and block capitals. I know is on Australian,
Speaker 3: but I hate Lamington's as well.
Speaker 5: No, No, I see people in Australia. We don't feel
Speaker 5: like we can voice our true opinions. About the Pavlova
Speaker 5: because we'll be shunned from society. But we don't like it.
Speaker 3: Why don't I get everyone that voice Jack today, You
Speaker 3: are the hero that this is world needs right now.
Speaker 3: All right, we're into last few days. We two of
Speaker 3: win a billboard. We have over fifty of these shoes, giant,
Speaker 3: massive digital billboards all over Melbourne. At any moment, within
Speaker 3: a couple of minutes, we can put whatever message you
Speaker 3: want on them. Today because we can also put photos
Speaker 3: and images up there, We're going to turn the billboards
Speaker 3: of Melbourne into an art gallery comprising of your kid's artwork. Now,
Speaker 3: just so we're clear, this isn't the This isn't the
Speaker 3: kind of place that you're going to get your young
Speaker 3: sort of Renoir or Monte discovered. Yesterday, I got a
Speaker 3: lot of very sort of proud parents like Patsy pushing
Speaker 3: their kids amazing artwork. I really saw some very very
Speaker 3: good artwork. What we're talking about is the stuff you
Speaker 3: try and put in the bin, but they see you.
Speaker 3: Augad'll put that in the garage and save that for
Speaker 3: another time.
Speaker 5: That goes on a magnet on the fridge for one day.
Speaker 5: Then the kid goes to sleep and it slowly makes
Speaker 5: its way again.
Speaker 3: So we're looking for bad sort of shit. We're not bad,
Speaker 3: aren't well, because it's just you know, kids playing around
Speaker 3: and stuff like that. That's what we want to turn
Speaker 3: it into.
Speaker 5: Not young prodigies who way ahead of their time.
Speaker 3: No, so perhaps you've actually brought some artwork in of audience.
Speaker 4: Yeah, this is good for radio, isn't it.
Speaker 6: Hang on, let you get it.
Speaker 5: You've bought a whole folio.
Speaker 3: Yeah, this is just like one.
Speaker 7: Tenth of it.
Speaker 4: Jack, You've got no idea. I've kept so much of
Speaker 4: her stuff. So this stuff from like when she's feeling, it's.
Speaker 3: Like some sort of museum of audi. It's all like
Speaker 3: box and la shrine.
Speaker 4: You know, it's a shrine, one of my favorite ones.
Speaker 4: She I'm going to hold it up. She made a
Speaker 4: paper cardboard tie for Father's Day. I thought that he
Speaker 4: had to wear that to work one day in the office.
Speaker 3: He got in the car with it. He did turn
Speaker 3: that around the corner in the glove box.
Speaker 4: No, and then I think I do not. I think
Speaker 4: this is I've got on it Audrey three years. Oh,
Speaker 4: this was one from twenty fourteen, and it's like for
Speaker 4: they look like jellyfish.
Speaker 5: That's so cute. The kids starts the same way, don't
Speaker 5: they drawing people? It's just a head with some legs.
Speaker 4: Sticking outtato with long legs and smiley faces. So there's
Speaker 4: a lot of that.
Speaker 3: That's what you want.
Speaker 11: You know.
Speaker 3: What I see is Melbourne flooded with stick people, because
Speaker 3: that's what it is. It's just like the head and
Speaker 3: then on some sort of stick twigs.
Speaker 4: Then there's this which is our family. How can I describe?
Speaker 4: It's like three triangles. But one of them, which is me,
Speaker 4: looks like that. What's that horror character with the black
Speaker 4: hair and pale pidal face and red eyes.
Speaker 5: The one from the Grudge that comes out of the TV?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I look like that.
Speaker 4: So that's the other one.
Speaker 3: All right. So if you've got some artwork there's a
Speaker 3: bit shabby of your kids when they were younger. This
Speaker 3: is what we want to put up on the billboards
Speaker 3: today called us now, and then you can email it
Speaker 3: as well.
Speaker 1: Look, Christian Connell Show podcast.

Speaker 3: I think I saw last week on the news they
Speaker 3: were talking about one in five Australians tried to get tickets.
Speaker 3: One in five, that's such a huge demand. So you know,
Speaker 3: I heard you in the news at PATS I think
Speaker 3: even warning about scammers. And because obviously lots of mom
Speaker 3: and dads are still trying to get hold of tickets
Speaker 3: as well, couldn't get hold of them. It is going
Speaker 3: to be crazy next week. So we're all going next
Speaker 3: Friday to the first night. And my seventeen year old
Speaker 3: daughter has been four years a big Teleswift fan, right
Speaker 3: she this is like Christmas Day. For yesterday, it was

Speaker 3: school to get ready, and I'm like, no, this is
Speaker 3: year twelve, this year, this is your last year. What
Speaker 3: do you need six hours of ready? Are you singing
Speaker 3: with her? Are you in the band you're playing the
Speaker 3: triangle of blocking spilled up there. The ATA won't thank
Speaker 3: you for that. You don't need to be picked up
Speaker 3: at lunchtime? School?
Speaker 5: What do you even ride on the doctors?
Speaker 3: Like one thing? And obviously just go I get it
Speaker 3: fair enough, that's all. Just the school is going to
Speaker 3: do a half day. And then yesterday she was going,
Speaker 3: I picked up from school. She was going, you know,
Speaker 3: it's amazing thing. She's going to be here in Melbourne.
