By the way, 174 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: it's called a bell clock. 175 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:56,600 Speaker 3: Just seeing their review here from Mary Glebe, this charming 176 00:07:56,640 --> 00:07:59,920 Speaker 3: looking clock works perfectly. My four year old grandson loves 177 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:03,240 Speaker 3: looking at the bell, ringing and changing the setting. So far, 178 00:08:03,320 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 3: this clock has survived all this attention beautifully. 179 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:07,440 Speaker 1: That is the kind of person. 180 00:08:07,480 --> 00:08:09,080 Speaker 5: It still uses one of those clocks, And that's what 181 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:11,040 Speaker 5: you want, your grandson changing the setting so you might 182 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:12,360 Speaker 5: wake up anytime at the night. 183 00:08:13,720 --> 00:08:15,200 Speaker 3: All right, let's find out what are you using.

The reason why 185 00:08:17,560 --> 00:08:19,320 Speaker 3: we're talking about this is because her husband has also 186 00:08:19,400 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 3: been woken up by this at three am. He does 187 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:23,800 Speaker 3: not have to go into the news on a breakfast show. 188 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,480 Speaker 3: Only one of them does.

We've got time for one 257 00:11:05,200 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 1: last call and let's get this guy on. Brian. Good morning, 258 00:11:08,480 --> 00:11:11,120 Speaker 1: Good morning. How are you doing, Chris, Very good, Brian, 259 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:12,640 Speaker 1: welcome to the show. What can you tell us then? 260 00:11:12,840 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 1: What wakes you up? 261 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:17,719 Speaker 9: Brian, Well, it wakes me up is using this smartphone. 262 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 9: But what I was calling about was also the atomic 263 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:23,640 Speaker 9: clock the information about it. 264 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:24,440 Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah. 265 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 9: There's actually two atomic clocks, ones in Greenwich, England, and 266 00:11:28,720 --> 00:11:30,800 Speaker 9: another one which is on the West coast on the 267 00:11:30,840 --> 00:11:32,920 Speaker 9: East coast of the United States in Washington, d C. 268 00:11:33,480 --> 00:11:38,040 Speaker 9: Which is the National Atomic Clock run by the US Navy. 269 00:11:38,120 --> 00:11:40,840 Speaker 9: And the reason why they use it is because it's 270 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 9: accurate within ten years of one second for a time, 271 00:11:45,840 --> 00:11:47,640 Speaker 9: so they have to just reset every ten years for 272 00:11:47,720 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 9: one second to make up for the time they lost. 273 00:11:50,520 --> 00:11:54,800 Speaker 9: So those are pretty interesting times when people don't even 274 00:11:54,880 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 9: understand the accuracy that they're talking about. 275 00:11:57,120 --> 00:11:57,440 Speaker 1: Thank you. 276 00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 3: I'm glad you're talking to someone and gets it. And 277 00:11:59,080 --> 00:12:01,839 Speaker 3: that so it goes from the Pentagon to my phone 278 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:02,559 Speaker 3: on my bedside. 279 00:12:02,559 --> 00:12:02,840 Speaker 1: Tell you. 280 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:08,079 Speaker 3: It's that greatitch, Washington, Melbourne, Hampton. 281 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:12,920 Speaker 9: The signal actually goes up to all all the satellites overhead. 282 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:17,160 Speaker 5: And they're all guys, well, no excuse for you being late. 283 00:12:17,320 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 5: Ever one second, ten years, I can ever allow myself. 284 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:23,920 Speaker 1: How do you know this, Brian? 285 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:26,760 Speaker 9: I was in the Air Force for eight years. I 286 00:12:26,840 --> 00:12:31,320 Speaker 9: was a sergeant. I had to come across this information 287 00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:33,320 Speaker 9: all the time, so I was always on top of 288 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 9: it as it came to cross my desk. So that 289 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 9: that's how they worked that out. So it was part 290 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 9: of my job title in the Air Force and working 291 00:12:42,080 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 9: through communications. I had to be on top of it. 292 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:47,320 Speaker 9: So when all the information came through, I had to 293 00:12:47,320 --> 00:12:49,160 Speaker 9: make sure the time was accurate. So I had to 294 00:12:49,200 --> 00:12:51,640 Speaker 9: double check it just to make sure they were up 295 00:12:51,679 --> 00:12:52,240 Speaker 9: on top of it. 296 00:12:52,320 --> 00:12:55,640 Speaker 3: I love this, and I'll be fascinated to know what 297 00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:58,000 Speaker 3: your job really was.

But I'd have to kill everybody and 300 00:13:01,800 --> 00:13:03,160 Speaker 9: help him to do it, so I would. 301 00:13:04,920 --> 00:13:09,640 Speaker 3: Five million have to do this for this leak better 302 00:13:09,679 --> 00:13:12,000 Speaker 3: be the world's best line.

And I was about that. 586 00:25:42,240 --> 00:25:43,960 Speaker 3: I went for that with one of the greatest teams ever, 587 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 3: one of the most successful ones, the D's. And turns 588 00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:50,600 Speaker 3: out right, when this kid was eighteen, he used to 589 00:25:50,640 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 3: be really good at footing.

He just didn't enjoy his first season actually 596 00:26:09,080 --> 00:26:11,560 Speaker 3: as part of Collingwood, and then just quit and trained 597 00:26:11,640 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 3: as a masseuse. And your dad used to be a 598 00:26:14,600 --> 00:26:15,400 Speaker 3: half decent player. 599 00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:17,600 Speaker 5: He's got a really similar story actually, but before. 600 00:26:17,440 --> 00:26:22,280 Speaker 1: The Messus table in on a Friday rubbed the showdown. 601 00:26:23,160 --> 00:26:25,680 Speaker 5: He before they had the draft system, they just used 602 00:26:25,720 --> 00:26:28,160 Speaker 5: to do the catchment areas, which were if you lived 603 00:26:28,160 --> 00:26:31,640 Speaker 5: near Collingwood you played for Collingwood that yeah, so it's 604 00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:34,520 Speaker 5: just like you were talked just your local area was 605 00:26:34,560 --> 00:26:37,639 Speaker 5: your team.
