Speaker 5: we start to unpick Jack's forthcoming weekend, which is a
Speaker 5: boy's weekend.
Speaker 4: So before we you go.
Speaker 5: Any further, I want us orders to pause. We all
Speaker 5: know what a Boy's Weekend involves? Men behavior night, boys drinking,
Speaker 5: tool stories, put crap on each other. It's a good time,
Speaker 5: men live for a boy's weekend. Jack's hosting this boy
Speaker 5: Boys Weekend, so course it's going to be a very
Speaker 5: different till on the well known theme of the Boys Weekend.
Speaker 5: This is the Boys Weekend where the boys are being
Speaker 5: made to work on Jack's cabin installing solar panels.
Speaker 3: They're invited to work, really, but if you want.
Speaker 5: To, you'll have to pick up a tool like some
Speaker 5: sweatshop owner. Yes, there's sewing machines for these trainers. They're
Speaker 5: invited to do a thirteen hour day the boys.
Speaker 3: I mean, we'll have a great weekend, even if there
Speaker 3: is a little bit of work, and there is some
Speaker 3: work to be done. Some trees are going to come down,
Speaker 3: and some soul panel's got to go up. I thought
Speaker 3: you said it was voluntary, but you said they must
Speaker 3: be voluntary. But if you are there, if you volunteer
Speaker 3: to come, you will be picking up the other thing.
Speaker 4: And just tuned in, we've established the first ol. Jack
Speaker 4: doesn't want them drinking on Friday night, and this is.
Speaker 5: Like King canuti you are trying to push forces back
Speaker 5: that are way stronger than you. Men on the first night,
Speaker 5: go bigger. I think even on Girls' Weekend it's the
Speaker 5: same as well. You always go big. It's excitement, being
Speaker 5: a way to get the catching up your other halves
Speaker 5: aren't around.
Speaker 3: And what I would say is, guys, save it for Saturday,
Speaker 3: after we've done the work. Wouldn't you love to let
Speaker 3: lose Friday night. Let's get an early to bed, have
Speaker 3: a tea, sleep well and then we'll have tea.
Speaker 4: Then we'll have English than me.
Speaker 3: Then we'll have ended.
Speaker 4: You put the cat on chaps to power through Scon's
Speaker 4: some jam guys instead of beer.
Speaker 3: So at the start of the week, I was very
Speaker 3: excited about the Boys Weekend, But because I'm leading it
Speaker 3: every day, it's got harder and harder, and it had
Speaker 3: its biggest challenge dished up to me yesterday.
Speaker 4: You wait to hear about this. Get ready listeners to
Speaker 4: have a strong reaction.
Speaker 3: Okay, the group is called Boys Weekend, Boys Weekend. There's
Speaker 3: no misinterpreting that. I get a call outside of the group.
Speaker 3: Doesn't want to go to the group with this, Get
Speaker 3: a private call Coward from Richard he's bringing his two
Speaker 3: twin girls six years old. No, you can't do that
Speaker 3: six years old. Come on, twins, they're lovely girls. Don't
Speaker 3: get me wrong.
Speaker 5: That's not brand lot belonging to Boys Weekend, but boy Weekend,
Speaker 5: Boys Weekend. He knows he's done wrong because he didn't
Speaker 5: put it in the group and just say, look, guys,
Speaker 5: are you okay with this?
Speaker 3: This is the problem. Rich is the one who works
Speaker 3: at kenn Hut's higher and I need him for the
Speaker 3: chainsaws to cut down the trees. So when he called me, oh,
Speaker 3: I felt too weak to say folded because I'm relying
Speaker 3: on him.
Speaker 4: So folded like a chair, and you let the group down.
Speaker 4: You've got to hold the line as a leader.
Speaker 3: I'm relying on him so heavily. And he's got he's
Speaker 3: got girls this weekend. So if I lose, if he
Speaker 3: has to stay home with the girls, that I lose Rich,
Speaker 3: I lose the chainsaws. So I had to let them come,
Speaker 3: and now I have the burden on me. Nobody in
Speaker 3: the boys group knows yet that there's twin girls coming
Speaker 3: six year olds on the Boy's Weekend.
Speaker 4: But it's a different energy, it's totally different.
Speaker 3: It ruins the whole dynamics.
Speaker 5: I know. So they're twins that age, they're busy, beautiful girls,
Speaker 5: but it's a different energy.
Speaker 4: Suddenly the guys's got to watch what they say and do.
Speaker 3: And they're not carrying logs around.
Speaker 5: That seems you're probab now that they're not effects of
Speaker 5: labor MyD No, you don't know where anywhere near falling
Speaker 5: trees or chainsaws.
Speaker 3: No they can't. They won't be able to help on
Speaker 3: the working bee.
Speaker 4: Can I just say cancel? This weekend was an absolute disaster.
Speaker 4: You've just moved it. Rio is right, you've moved it
Speaker 4: so far away because you folded.
Speaker 3: Rich is the one trying to bring his daughters.
Speaker 4: Shame on them.
Speaker 5: You say you're the leader, you're the king of the castle.
Speaker 5: You just lowered the drawbridge and I ain't got six
Speaker 5: year old twins running up the drawbridge.
Speaker 3: Do you want to have six year old twins at
Speaker 3: your house this weekend? You look, he wanted to offer
Speaker 3: it my parents to babysit his twins.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, the mess you've grated. Why did you
Speaker 4: just why did you should have just said, look, I
Speaker 4: just put it on the WhatsApp group to see what
Speaker 4: the guy's saying.
Speaker 3: You'll get eaten alive on there.
Speaker 4: Well, then that's on them.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but we remember we need Rich for the chainsaws.
Speaker 5: Go you go and get the chainsaws somewhere else. I'll
Speaker 5: forget the chainsaws, forget the solar panels.
Speaker 3: I'll put it on the group now.
Speaker 4: Now put it on the group.
Speaker 3: Now we'll see what the.
Speaker 1: Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 4: Have you sent the message? Yes to head of the
Speaker 4: Boys Group.
Speaker 3: I haven't hit send yet. Can I read it to

Speaker 3: it correctly. So there's a boy's weekend this weekend in tatters.
Speaker 3: Strictly strictly says Boys Weekend on the on the WhatsApp

Speaker 5: that boys group for the weekend away Jack's week as
Speaker 5: in w e ak and very good.
Speaker 3: Actually, to bring everybody up to speed, there is a
Speaker 3: situation with the boys weekend going up this weekend hoping
Speaker 3: to do some a bit of a working bee, chop
Speaker 3: down some trees, put up some solar panels, but then
Speaker 3: we get to party on Saturday night. Boys weekend was
Speaker 3: the underlining word in the group.
Speaker 5: Well, it feels like chopping down trees and put the
Speaker 5: old so panels is the big underlant thing I'm saying.
Speaker 3: On that late last to get a call from Richard.
Speaker 3: He wants to bring his twin girls along, two six
Speaker 3: year old girls. So lovely, but it really changes the
Speaker 3: dynamic of.
Speaker 4: What is Irako. It's not a boy's weekend anymore.
Speaker 5: Vicky's just texteding going look, you know, Christian, this will
Speaker 5: open up the door now for other women to turn

Speaker 3: Yeah, it says a dangerous preces killed. You've no not Rich, Jack, Well,
Speaker 3: I've Rich. Was weak for doing it and coming home,
Speaker 3: smile dash you in that moment. There is weakness all around.
Speaker 4: Come, there's dark all around.
Speaker 3: Rich was weak for coming directly to me and not
Speaker 3: putting it on the group. I was weak for saying
Speaker 3: yes last night when I was very tired, very tired
Speaker 3: and couldn't.
Speaker 5: And now you passed a week virus onto that WhatsApp group.
Speaker 5: Oh my god, Jack read out this strange message you
Speaker 5: just put in your WhatsApp group.
Speaker 3: By the way, I think, guys, alert alert. We all
Speaker 3: love kids, and we all love our friends. However, we
Speaker 3: are embarking on a boy's weekend and Riches asked if
Speaker 3: you can bring the twins along. In a tired state
Speaker 3: last night, I said it was like came but in
Speaker 3: the cold light of day, I want to put it
Speaker 3: as a vote to the group, yes or no kids
Speaker 3: on the boys weekend. First message I get is private
Speaker 3: directly to me. Don't know about the twins on the
Speaker 3: on the Boy's Weekend, of course, but I don't want
Speaker 3: to be the first to vote week week cowards. Next
Speaker 3: person who finally writes in the group, Sam, ideally I'd
Speaker 3: be voting for no kids. However, if it's a choice
Speaker 3: between Rich and the girls and no rich and all,
Speaker 3: I'll go with Rich with the girls. Fence sitting absolutely, Now,
Speaker 3: this is what happens in these boys group. Now people
Speaker 3: are doing like memes about fence sitting. There's a horse
Speaker 3: sitting on a fence and they're not and they're not voting.
Speaker 3: They're cowards.
Speaker 4: Oh no, thank you.
Speaker 3: Finally, Tristan, who's the only one who's had the guts
Speaker 3: to say my vote would be no kids for the
Speaker 3: sake of pure, unadulterated fun this weekend obviously doesn't know
Speaker 3: about the quiet Friday night and that we've got a
Speaker 3: big working day on Saturday, but we can have fun
Speaker 3: Saturday at night.
Speaker 4: So is he the last word?
Speaker 3: So far? He's the last one. And can I say
Speaker 3: six people have commented on stuff without casting a vote.
Speaker 3: They are the real cowurs of the weekend.
Speaker 1: Well, Christian Connell's show podcast.
Speaker 4: Anything else going on in that old group? Now that
Speaker 4: you've deciinated.
Speaker 3: I've said people can message me privately if you wish
Speaker 3: to stay anonymous because they too cowardly.
Speaker 4: You've been a peacekeeper, now why don't you been a peacekeeper?
Speaker 4: All right?
Speaker 5: So it's in the news today, it was happening last night,
Speaker 5: big thing and from a sport point of view, from
Speaker 5: an outsider, removed it four years ago. I think the
Speaker 5: Old Australian you do every year is an amazing thing, right.
Speaker 5: They don't do it in the EPL. And I think
Speaker 5: it's a great idea announcing a team of all the
Speaker 5: very best, you get the rising star. I think it's
Speaker 5: a great celebration as you head into the finals. So
Speaker 5: I was watching it all on fold last night, seeing
Speaker 5: all the teams going in and seeing what DS players
Speaker 5: we're going to end up in it.
Speaker 4: I'm thinking, do you know what? This is great?
Speaker 5: But it's only footy to get this honor of being
Speaker 5: an All Australian. What a great honor and accolade that
Speaker 5: is that.
Speaker 4: You're an All Australian.
Speaker 5: So this morning I think I want to readdress the
Speaker 5: balance because sport makes our lives better sometimes. If you like,
Speaker 5: if you're a Carton fan or a bombers round right now.
Speaker 5: It breaks your heart as well.
Speaker 4: Yes, one day success.
Speaker 5: Sport makes their lives better, but then so does so
Speaker 5: does film, music, comedy, TV. So today I want to
Speaker 5: try and form an all Australian team of all time
Speaker 5: great Australians, dead or alive, anyone who has made a
Speaker 5: difference in your life. Maybe when you're a kid or
Speaker 5: a teenager you love that movie, maybe it's won the
Speaker 5: stars and we put all the stars in from the castle.
Speaker 5: But have your say an all time general, alive, all
Speaker 5: Australian team who is on the oval for me in
Speaker 5: terms of Australians that made a big difference.
Speaker 4: To my life. I've got to put two people in
Speaker 4: the ka. You often have brothers going in.
Speaker 5: They're not brothers, but they feel like comedy brothers because
Speaker 5: they made so much great stuff. It's Martin Lloyd too,
Speaker 5: great Australian that really did raise the bar for radio
Speaker 5: and TV, in comedy and movie as well with cracker
Speaker 5: Jack and the stuff they've done together.
Speaker 4: But Martin molloy would go in for me one hundred percent.
Speaker 3: All right, I guess I'm asking for technically four spots,
Speaker 3: but maybe they can sit in the one place in
Speaker 3: the field.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know that's okay. Yeah, they can be one,
Speaker 4: they can be one play one place in defense.
Speaker 3: An Australian ben who's won more Arias than any other artist.
Speaker 4: Guy Sebastian, The Wiggles, Oh.
Speaker 15: Hot Potato, Hot Potato.
Speaker 4: They have they have changed your lives a lot of
Speaker 4: mums and dads and kids. So what the OG lineup?
Speaker 3: I'd go just for nostalgia purposes, I'd go the OG lineup.
Speaker 3: If had to choose one, My favorite was Red.
Speaker 4: Wiggle, Murray Murray.
Speaker 3: I'd love to see him with his guitar somewhere.
Speaker 5: Maybe everyone's favorite Murray. Actually it's my kid's favorite was Murray.
Speaker 5: Yeah all right, so all time all Australian not sport
Speaker 5: can be someone from film, music, TV, comedy radio. I'm
Speaker 5: not saying that so that you have put Jack and
Speaker 5: I like it might be someone nice, Paymish and Andy
Speaker 5: should go in as well.
Speaker 4: What here reckon? Who should be going in? Please? Can
Speaker 4: we stop this?
Speaker 1: This is the Christian o'connells show podcast.
Speaker 5: All right, So we're trying to form our own all
Speaker 5: Australian team. They do this in footy. What are other areas?
Speaker 5: So it's an all Australian team of all Australian legends.
Speaker 5: People have made a big difference in your life, whether
Speaker 5: it's comedians from movies, music TV. Christian, what about Sean macarliffe.
Speaker 5: I see him as a very smart coach.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he could be on the coaching Is he the.
Speaker 4: President someone like that? You know it is?
Speaker 5: He's always a mac at the address, isn't he? But yeah,
Speaker 5: definitely the great Sean mccarliff. All right, let's go to Chris.
Speaker 5: Good morning, Chris, Good morning Christian.
Speaker 6: Is I think I've got the captain and the vice
Speaker 6: captain of the team as well? Actually, so people that
Speaker 6: two players or two performers that would embody such posit
Speaker 6: key positions would be Paul Hogan as captain. Yes, in
Speaker 6: the center, getting plenty of the ball, followed by he
Speaker 6: would rack, he would he would row it out in
Speaker 6: clearance and give it to shoot Jackman.
Speaker 5: Oh yes, yeah, like a Max Gonel like performance, but
Speaker 5: with more hair than Max.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: And then imagine that don't argue from Wolverine himself.
Speaker 5: Crocodile dundee, that's not a share, Chris. Those are two
Speaker 5: great ones. They have to be in captain and vice captain.
Speaker 5: Thank you very much, Chris. Let's gonna Mitch here, Mitch,
Speaker 5: so our team of all Australian, all Australian legends, who's in, Hey.
Speaker 18: Guys, good morning.
Speaker 7: Or you just can't go past Steve Ill.
Speaker 4: Yes, I'm going to talk about it's going to be.
Speaker 7: He's going to be. He'll be your spiritual leader.
Speaker 18: And maybe you're seen a half forward.
Speaker 4: I love that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he would be. And he's already got the shorts.
Speaker 4: Plus you know what, it's going to liven up the
Speaker 4: locker room. You're going to open up your locker. What's
Speaker 4: in that? It's a koala, a big snake with the
Speaker 4: wild animal pranks.
Speaker 18: You can't go past him. I had all the VHS
Speaker 18: tapes growing up as a kid. I was chasing snakes. Yeah,
Speaker 18: the Eastern Suburbs. I was on five acres.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 18: I heard me mum screaming at me. At one point,
Speaker 18: just from getting out from underneath the cubby house, I
Speaker 18: was chasing the rippy.
Speaker 4: But after that's amazing. All right, You're love Mitch for
Speaker 4: that kind of appetite. All right, Mitch, thank you very much,
Speaker 4: you cool, No, thank you all man. Kevin, good morning Kevin.
Speaker 11: Good morning, Christian, how are you.
Speaker 4: I'm good, buddy.
Speaker 5: So when you talk about all Australians outside of Sport,
Speaker 5: we've made a difference.
Speaker 4: Who would it be for you?
Speaker 11: I'm not sure of the name, Christian. It's more of
Speaker 11: the show like back in the early seventies we used
Speaker 11: to go to Catholic primary school and the teacher and
Speaker 11: bring out this big TV on wheels and like you'd
Speaker 11: have to change the channels and the old play school show,
Speaker 11: but it would have been done for decades.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a love play school.
Speaker 5: I also went to a Catholic primary school where they
Speaker 5: used to wield that TV out.
Speaker 4: Do you remember, like a really big thing. It was like,
Speaker 4: behold the TVV you TVs no boring lessons to TV.
Speaker 4: And then just hearing the music takes you back to
Speaker 4: a kind of time. It is the time we play.
Speaker 3: The queen of playschool was Benita. She was there in
Speaker 3: the seventies, she was still there when I was a
Speaker 3: kid watching it in the nineties.
Speaker 5: Yeah, she was a friend to so many young kids
Speaker 5: who've grown up now. Also, wasn't she a charm when
Speaker 5: she was on Who's Calling?
Speaker 4: Christian?
Speaker 5: Was?
Speaker 4: Yeah? Love chat Christian Christian.
Speaker 11: Yes, they can actually use they can actually use that
Speaker 11: music as the team sing song.
Speaker 4: Up yeah after a big win. Yeah, that's right.
Speaker 5: How we're going to go play our song? All right, Kevin,
Speaker 5: that's a great one. Thank you very much, mate. Have
Speaker 5: a good day all right, Trevor.
Speaker 4: Yes, mate, Trevor, who have you got? I think you've
Speaker 4: got someone really big.
Speaker 14: That actually your greatest goal kicker ever, the one that's
Speaker 14: been kicking goals all alive. It's got to be a
Speaker 14: livery Newton John mate. I mean her music, her film,
Speaker 14: her care to research. She has got to be an
Speaker 14: absolute superstar and being kicking goals for so long, so
Speaker 14: full forward.
Speaker 4: I'm saying, great her really really well said as well.
Speaker 4: That is lovely. Thank you very much for that, Trevor.
Speaker 14: No, I was christ didn't say a brighter.
Speaker 1: You're listening to the Christian O Carl's Show podcast.
Speaker 4: Taking you back to school? Now?
Speaker 5: What got confiscated? It's like a badge of honor, I
Speaker 5: think sometimes to get something confiscated as well. I remember
Speaker 5: Jimmy the old shatterproof rulers. There's a phrase you don't
Speaker 5: say anymore, do you? Who is taking my shatterproof ruler. Anyway,
Speaker 5: in maths, listen, we had this mass teacher called mister Bachelor,
Speaker 5: and I remember once he lost his mine because me
Speaker 5: and the guys at the back we just did that
Speaker 5: thing with the with the ruler where you.
Speaker 4: Would get a little pieces of paper, chew them.
Speaker 5: Up, put them on there, flick at the back of
Speaker 5: people's heads, and also up on the seiling. They would
Speaker 5: just stick to scene. Anyway, told a couple of times
Speaker 5: to stop that. You don't think when they used to
Speaker 5: get aggressive and go they would give you a false
Speaker 5: tie to like mister O'Connell. And anyway, he caught me
Speaker 5: once and then he took the chatatproof ruler and for
Speaker 5: the rest of that term as well, only was it confiscated.
Speaker 5: I answered them for the rest of the term to
Speaker 5: set the front right by him, with all the nerds
Speaker 5: at the front of.
Speaker 4: The shame the shame at the front. I couldn't be
Speaker 4: at the back.
Speaker 3: It's amazing. He still came out cool.
Speaker 4: Yes, I know. And Jackie boy, whoever you are, what
Speaker 4: do you get confiscated?
Speaker 3: Well, I got that note confiscated where I got confiscated
Speaker 3: and used against me. I was passing notes in class,
Speaker 3: and I had written a list of ten girls at
Speaker 3: the school who I fancied I was a teenage boy.
Speaker 3: I wouldn't do that now obviously, and.
Speaker 4: I just have five now, haven't you?
Speaker 3: The English in the office, the English teacher confiscated the note,
Speaker 3: read it, and she pulled me aside after class and said.
Speaker 4: I said I'd move around number three to number one,
Speaker 4: number ten? Really okay?
Speaker 3: She said it would be a shame if your parents
Speaker 3: were to see this kind of stuff. So do you know,
Speaker 3: just do well in English for the rest of the year.
Speaker 3: No more notes.
Speaker 5: Wow, on our socials. This came from Andy? What am
Speaker 5: I about to read out here? This is the language
Speaker 5: of a teenage boy. It's from Andy Fincham. Finchy sounds
Speaker 5: like a character from a kid's TV show, doesn't it?
Speaker 5: Mister Fincham stopped running up told you before. Andy Fincham
Speaker 5: got his Luca's Aid Sport pencil case confiscated for writing
Speaker 5: tim as a wanker on it.

Speaker 5: teachers blackboard chalk. Tvious kids and monsters, aren't they to teachers?
Speaker 5: Shout out to all the teachers that are hearing this
Speaker 5: and go, oh God, another day them. She would steal
Speaker 5: the chalk right before the teacher came in, but under
Speaker 5: the bin. Then when the teacher went out to get
Speaker 5: more chalk, she would put it back on the backboard.
Speaker 5: Teacher went a little crazy off. That just kept happening
Speaker 5: for good. This is mental cruelty, it's trolling. It's cruel
Speaker 5: all right.
Speaker 4: But the thing is what got confiscated of yours, Christian.
Speaker 5: My tamagotchi, my pet dinosaur, didn't get fed all down
Speaker 5: and died in my teacher's draw. I was devastated from

Speaker 5: John's that's a grave one, thank you very much. Suzanne
Speaker 5: got a chair confiscated back in grade five. I would
Speaker 5: constantly swing on my chair. After several warnings, my teacher
Speaker 5: confiscated my chair.
Speaker 4: I had him kneel for a whole term. I'm guessing

Speaker 7: of it.
Speaker 4: To rubber band.
Speaker 7: Yeah. Well, unfortunately I used it and the principal was
Speaker 7: standing behind me. He confiscated it because he could go
Speaker 7: quite quite quite possibly. Yeah, anyhow, got held up in
Speaker 7: school assembly the following day saying, you know, I confiscated that,
Speaker 7: and I can catch anymore, you know, And when the
Speaker 7: police come.
Speaker 4: Out with a whole of drugs, stave caught. Yeah, what happened?
