WEBVTT - MINI: Roadtrip Games

0:00:00.400 --> 0:00:04.000
<v Speaker 1>The Christian O'Connell Breakfast Show, Melbourne's Gold one oh four

0:00:04.000 --> 0:00:04.480
<v Speaker 1>point three.

0:00:04.680 --> 0:00:08.160
<v Speaker 2>Interesting article yesterday about how to survive those long Christmas

0:00:08.280 --> 0:00:10.159
<v Speaker 2>road trips you'll be going on in a couple of

0:00:10.160 --> 0:00:12.600
<v Speaker 2>weeks time over Christmas. Maybe go and see your relatives

0:00:13.080 --> 0:00:15.760
<v Speaker 2>out in the country. And of course, so Christmas trip

0:00:15.800 --> 0:00:17.800
<v Speaker 2>for me, A long road trip for me in the

0:00:17.920 --> 0:00:20.000
<v Speaker 2>UK used to be two hours. You could pretty much

0:00:20.040 --> 0:00:22.439
<v Speaker 2>get anywhere in the UK within two hours two hours

0:00:22.480 --> 0:00:25.520
<v Speaker 2>right now in Melbourne that's just getting across Punt Road.

0:00:26.600 --> 0:00:28.920
<v Speaker 2>So you go a lot longer on a road trip

0:00:29.080 --> 0:00:32.040
<v Speaker 2>in Australia. I still can't believe. I suppose some friends

0:00:32.040 --> 0:00:34.479
<v Speaker 2>of mine that drove to Sydney the other day. I

0:00:34.520 --> 0:00:37.479
<v Speaker 2>can't believe that people will actually drive to Sydney.

0:00:37.520 --> 0:00:39.520
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, we've done the Sydney road trip a couple of times.

0:00:39.520 --> 0:00:41.880
<v Speaker 2>Is it worth doing? Is it something? I mean we did.

0:00:42.159 --> 0:00:44.600
<v Speaker 3>You can choose two way. Isn't like the Hume Highway,

0:00:44.600 --> 0:00:46.960
<v Speaker 3>which takes you straight up the middle and not very scenic,

0:00:47.000 --> 0:00:48.839
<v Speaker 3>but it's some cool little towns. Or you can go

0:00:49.120 --> 0:00:51.560
<v Speaker 3>along the coast and there's some really good four areas

0:00:51.600 --> 0:00:52.160
<v Speaker 3>along the coast.

0:00:52.240 --> 0:00:54.440
<v Speaker 2>Right Yeah, thinking about doing it over Christmas, actually going

0:00:54.440 --> 0:00:57.080
<v Speaker 2>the long way there. But you see, when you go

0:00:57.160 --> 0:01:00.360
<v Speaker 2>on a long road trip, you certainly realize, no matter

0:01:00.400 --> 0:01:01.960
<v Speaker 2>how you might love your partner, whether you do it,

0:01:02.000 --> 0:01:04.280
<v Speaker 2>they were just your partner or your kids, you haven't

0:01:04.319 --> 0:01:07.959
<v Speaker 2>spent that much time together in a contained room. Normally

0:01:08.040 --> 0:01:11.880
<v Speaker 2>you can go and do something else. Is you're trapped?

0:01:11.880 --> 0:01:16.319
<v Speaker 2>Did I accidentally stay there? I mean trapped? Trapped? What

0:01:16.360 --> 0:01:18.000
<v Speaker 2>a pleasure to be with someone in a small room.

0:01:18.040 --> 0:01:19.760
<v Speaker 2>Not trapped? Why would I say trapped? I don't know.

0:01:19.760 --> 0:01:21.959
<v Speaker 2>I have therapy, Okay, but anyway, I did say trapped.

0:01:22.000 --> 0:01:23.759
<v Speaker 2>Let's cover it. You are? You trapped with somebody else?

0:01:24.000 --> 0:01:26.840
<v Speaker 2>And then suddenly those irritations, those petty irritations that you

0:01:26.880 --> 0:01:30.320
<v Speaker 2>have there, they are It's like a pan, isn't it

0:01:30.319 --> 0:01:32.319
<v Speaker 2>with a lid on it? On the oven? It just simmers.

0:01:32.600 --> 0:01:34.559
<v Speaker 2>And so this was six It was six tips about

0:01:34.560 --> 0:01:36.960
<v Speaker 2>how to survive a long road trip and is common

0:01:37.000 --> 0:01:39.360
<v Speaker 2>sense about taking it in turns to pick the music

0:01:39.360 --> 0:01:42.600
<v Speaker 2>and blah blah blah, taking regular road trips, playing games.

0:01:42.959 --> 0:01:44.800
<v Speaker 2>And I don't about you guys on long road trips

0:01:44.800 --> 0:01:47.559
<v Speaker 2>to your parents, what car games did you love to play?

0:01:48.080 --> 0:01:51.480
<v Speaker 3>Oh, Icepy was the I mean, I think we only

0:01:51.520 --> 0:01:52.880
<v Speaker 3>ever played ice Spy.

0:01:54.320 --> 0:01:59.040
<v Speaker 2>You never played The Joys of Yellow Car, very complicated game.

0:01:59.240 --> 0:02:02.440
<v Speaker 2>Soon as you get a pair, okay, everyone in the

0:02:02.480 --> 0:02:05.080
<v Speaker 2>car is looking out for a yellow car. First person

0:02:05.160 --> 0:02:07.280
<v Speaker 2>see a yellow car has to yell out yellow car.

0:02:07.760 --> 0:02:11.240
<v Speaker 2>You then keep a tally who's seen the most yellow cars?

0:02:11.600 --> 0:02:13.960
<v Speaker 2>That's the winner. The joy you have because what happens.

0:02:13.960 --> 0:02:15.919
<v Speaker 2>It be quiet for a while, right, and you can't help.

0:02:15.960 --> 0:02:17.640
<v Speaker 2>Some people start to day during the MC not off

0:02:17.639 --> 0:02:19.799
<v Speaker 2>and then suddenly I always make sure I yell it

0:02:19.840 --> 0:02:21.959
<v Speaker 2>really loud because there'd be a while we don't see

0:02:22.000 --> 0:02:23.680
<v Speaker 2>yellow car five minutes that the kids will start to

0:02:23.720 --> 0:02:28.320
<v Speaker 2>not off and against you can't just go. It's joy,

0:02:28.440 --> 0:02:31.400
<v Speaker 2>the joy you're playing yellow car. Have you played any

0:02:31.400 --> 0:02:35.720
<v Speaker 2>games involving the number plates? You've never done that. No anagrams.

0:02:36.040 --> 0:02:39.040
<v Speaker 2>It's from the number plates, kids, to increase your word power.

0:02:39.560 --> 0:02:41.560
<v Speaker 2>Now we do like words from the number plates or

0:02:41.639 --> 0:02:44.000
<v Speaker 2>cricket number plate as well, where you wed up the numbers.

0:02:45.000 --> 0:02:46.280
<v Speaker 2>Whoever can see pick the car?

0:02:46.320 --> 0:02:48.560
<v Speaker 3>The voluntarily played a maths game.

0:02:48.919 --> 0:02:50.680
<v Speaker 2>Well, I have to be made to by my wife

0:02:50.720 --> 0:02:58.440
<v Speaker 2>that one I prefer. Perhaps do you do you played

0:02:58.480 --> 0:02:59.840
<v Speaker 2>anyone other than I spy.

0:03:00.200 --> 0:03:02.240
<v Speaker 4>It was always a nightmare because I had two older

0:03:02.240 --> 0:03:04.560
<v Speaker 4>brothers who used to give me Chinese burns in the

0:03:04.560 --> 0:03:08.040
<v Speaker 4>back seat. But we you used to have to guess

0:03:08.160 --> 0:03:10.480
<v Speaker 4>what model the next car was going to be, whether

0:03:10.520 --> 0:03:12.400
<v Speaker 4>it's going to be like a Ford or a Holding

0:03:12.480 --> 0:03:14.880
<v Speaker 4>or a Mitsubishi, and we'd keep it telling.

0:03:14.760 --> 0:03:16.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, this is what we used to do because we

0:03:16.320 --> 0:03:19.280
<v Speaker 2>didn't have phones. Nowadays you can watch it. I watch

0:03:19.320 --> 0:03:25.239
<v Speaker 2>the Irishman five hour epic movie on your phone, hundred

0:03:25.240 --> 0:03:27.680
<v Speaker 2>different TV shows on Netflix or whatever you're streaming on

0:03:27.720 --> 0:03:30.240
<v Speaker 2>these days. And who does the driving on a long

0:03:30.320 --> 0:03:31.720
<v Speaker 2>road trip with it be you or your wife? I

0:03:31.800 --> 0:03:34.520
<v Speaker 2>let my wife do because really, when I drive, she

0:03:34.760 --> 0:03:38.960
<v Speaker 2>is the world's worst backseat driver. Even in taxis, She's

0:03:39.000 --> 0:03:41.280
<v Speaker 2>sat up front with the driver going please slow down here,

0:03:41.280 --> 0:03:43.920
<v Speaker 2>and I amn't doing a legal thing. And so just

0:03:43.960 --> 0:03:46.280
<v Speaker 2>a couple years ago, I realized we're gonna get divorced

0:03:46.280 --> 0:03:49.480
<v Speaker 2>like this, Just drive, Just drive. I don't care. I

0:03:49.520 --> 0:03:51.520
<v Speaker 2>just can't be bothered with it. Who does it between

0:03:51.560 --> 0:03:52.160
<v Speaker 2>you and Bianca?

0:03:52.240 --> 0:03:54.280
<v Speaker 3>When we went to Sydney on that last road trip,

0:03:54.360 --> 0:03:55.480
<v Speaker 3>actually had a sore back.

0:03:55.600 --> 0:03:58.760
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, I might start using that as well.

0:03:58.840 --> 0:04:07.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I love with the passager second life alas why

0:04:07.880 --> 0:04:09.880
<v Speaker 3>she did most of the driving, and then I could

0:04:09.880 --> 0:04:11.320
<v Speaker 3>do a few twenty minutes stints.

0:04:11.440 --> 0:04:16.080
<v Speaker 2>All right, what car games can you recommend to us

0:04:16.080 --> 0:04:18.000

0:04:18.080 --> 0:04:21.039

<v Speaker 2>How are you? I'm good? So tell us about a

0:04:57.320 --> 0:04:57.800
<v Speaker 2>car game.

0:04:58.600 --> 0:05:01.040
<v Speaker 5>Yeah no, even when I was a kid, I was

0:05:01.080 --> 0:05:03.400
<v Speaker 5>still look now with my kids, we used to play

0:05:03.880 --> 0:05:04.520
<v Speaker 5>punch Buggy.

0:05:06.200 --> 0:05:09.400
<v Speaker 2>I remember punch bugging, So break it down for me, John,

0:05:09.440 --> 0:05:12.159
<v Speaker 2>I have a rough inkling that involves punches and looking

0:05:12.160 --> 0:05:14.600
<v Speaker 2>out for VW's exactly right.

0:05:14.680 --> 0:05:18.120
<v Speaker 5>Yes, you'd just be driving down the road and the

0:05:18.200 --> 0:05:19.840
<v Speaker 5>kids are in the back or whatever, and you just

0:05:19.880 --> 0:05:21.560
<v Speaker 5>see a punch buggy and then you get a punch

0:05:21.560 --> 0:05:21.960
<v Speaker 5>in the arm.

0:05:22.320 --> 0:05:24.760
<v Speaker 2>Now and wind about the safety of this was you're

0:05:24.839 --> 0:05:27.360
<v Speaker 2>driving up front of suddenly you're getting a big haymaker

0:05:27.600 --> 0:05:29.360
<v Speaker 2>from one of your kids on the back seats.

0:05:29.720 --> 0:05:31.040
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, it just has to be in the arm.

0:05:31.120 --> 0:05:34.679
<v Speaker 2>Right, the things are actually holding the steering wheel.

0:05:35.640 --> 0:05:37.719
<v Speaker 5>Yeah.

0:05:37.800 --> 0:05:40.560
<v Speaker 3>We used to play that on the school bus punch buggy,

0:05:40.600 --> 0:05:42.960
<v Speaker 3>and it became Punchbuggy no return, so that if you

0:05:43.000 --> 0:05:45.640
<v Speaker 3>saw the punch buggy, they weren't allowed to punchy back

0:05:45.680 --> 0:05:47.080
<v Speaker 3>for seeing the same punchbuggy.

0:05:47.760 --> 0:05:48.880
<v Speaker 5>One punch per buggy.

0:05:49.000 --> 0:05:52.839
<v Speaker 2>Yep. Because you're not savages. You've gotta have rules with

0:05:52.880 --> 0:05:55.320
<v Speaker 2>these games. Okay, John, that's a brilliant one. Thank you

0:05:55.400 --> 0:05:59.200
<v Speaker 2>very much for calling mate. Have a good day, No thanks, Luke,

0:05:59.320 --> 0:06:02.200
<v Speaker 2>Good morning. Hey guys, how are we I'm good? Tell

0:06:02.200 --> 0:06:05.520
<v Speaker 2>me about the car game. Sweet and sour, So.

0:06:05.560 --> 0:06:08.360
<v Speaker 5>Sweet and sour. You're going past other cars, you wait

0:06:08.440 --> 0:06:10.800
<v Speaker 5>with them and if you get away back they're sweet.

0:06:10.839 --> 0:06:14.640
<v Speaker 2>If they don't the brilliant genius like that. This is it.

0:06:14.680 --> 0:06:17.560
<v Speaker 2>I own to start doing this by myself. This is great.

0:06:17.600 --> 0:06:21.160
<v Speaker 2>I've often played with the kids Toot the Stranger, where

0:06:21.200 --> 0:06:23.200
<v Speaker 2>if we're driving on, I will toot the car horn

0:06:23.240 --> 0:06:25.279
<v Speaker 2>at stranger and when all three of us will wave

0:06:25.600 --> 0:06:28.560
<v Speaker 2>and if they don't wave back, then because what happens

0:06:28.600 --> 0:06:31.680
<v Speaker 2>is that everyone at a politeness. If you can't take someone,

0:06:31.680 --> 0:06:33.960
<v Speaker 2>you see people waving at you, you kind of confuse,

0:06:34.080 --> 0:06:34.520
<v Speaker 2>do that.

0:06:34.400 --> 0:06:37.000
<v Speaker 3>Look, well you you wave until you work out who's

0:06:37.000 --> 0:06:37.400
<v Speaker 3>in the car.

0:06:37.480 --> 0:06:39.560
<v Speaker 2>Well you still don't know, but just seeing their confused

0:06:39.560 --> 0:06:41.560
<v Speaker 2>face is it is a great little game anyway. But

0:06:42.040 --> 0:06:44.320
<v Speaker 2>Sweet and Sour is a genius and it's simplicity.

0:06:44.440 --> 0:06:46.920
<v Speaker 3>So do you score points, Luke? By it sweet worth

0:06:46.920 --> 0:06:48.479
<v Speaker 3>a point and soal not worth a point?

0:06:49.120 --> 0:06:50.720
<v Speaker 5>Yes, so if they wave back at the point, if

0:06:50.760 --> 0:06:53.000
<v Speaker 5>I don't, then yeah.

0:06:53.240 --> 0:06:55.280
<v Speaker 6>Some friends when we used to throw our path used

0:06:55.279 --> 0:06:57.240
<v Speaker 6>to girl they didn't wait back and give them the bird.

0:07:00.000 --> 0:07:03.960
<v Speaker 2>Alright, Luke, that's a great one, Sweet and sound love it.

<v Speaker 2>good car games to play? Four one four one oh

0:07:53.560 --> 0:07:56.240
<v Speaker 2>four three. Just overheard Jack talking to one of you

0:07:56.280 --> 0:07:59.880
<v Speaker 2>and telling you off, saying that the Kidnap Game, and

0:08:00.000 --> 0:08:02.240
<v Speaker 2>obviously the title gives away, was not in any way,

0:08:02.280 --> 0:08:08.360
<v Speaker 2>shape or form appropriate for broadcast. They should be encouraging.

0:08:10.240 --> 0:08:10.440
<v Speaker 1>Work.

0:08:10.680 --> 0:08:12.680
<v Speaker 2>Just when you were going the kidnap game, how did

0:08:12.680 --> 0:08:13.000
<v Speaker 2>that work?

0:08:13.040 --> 0:08:13.080
<v Speaker 5>Was?

0:08:13.400 --> 0:08:16.680
<v Speaker 2>We can't have any of this on the show. So

0:08:16.760 --> 0:08:19.920
<v Speaker 2>well done. We got time for two quick calls. We

0:08:19.960 --> 0:08:24.200
<v Speaker 2>squeezing before Patsy's news. Terry, good morning, good morning.

0:08:24.200 --> 0:08:25.040
<v Speaker 6>How are you this morning?

0:08:25.080 --> 0:08:26.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm good, teary and I hope you are as well

0:08:26.520 --> 0:08:28.800
<v Speaker 2>thanks to calling the show. Tell us what a car game?

0:08:29.960 --> 0:08:32.720
<v Speaker 6>We used to play car cricket, so you'd have put

0:08:32.800 --> 0:08:36.160
<v Speaker 6>values on the vehicles and then whenever a red tar

0:08:36.240 --> 0:08:38.960
<v Speaker 6>came out, that was your out, your out ball.

0:08:40.280 --> 0:08:42.679
<v Speaker 2>See these are ingenious. You wonder it was the first

0:08:42.720 --> 0:08:45.040
<v Speaker 2>person to create a game like that, and now I

0:08:45.120 --> 0:08:47.200
<v Speaker 2>better be played in England as well. Car cricket.

0:08:47.240 --> 0:08:49.319
<v Speaker 3>So do you remember what was like one run and

0:08:49.360 --> 0:08:50.240
<v Speaker 3>what was six runs?

0:08:50.320 --> 0:08:50.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

0:08:51.320 --> 0:08:53.880
<v Speaker 6>Oh, we used to have like motorbikes and cars were one,

0:08:54.280 --> 0:08:58.240
<v Speaker 6>Cars with trailers were two. Then you'd have a track

0:08:58.440 --> 0:09:03.320
<v Speaker 6>was four and then a semi was six because we

0:09:03.360 --> 0:09:06.079
<v Speaker 6>did a lot of forward driving driving, so we used

0:09:06.120 --> 0:09:08.240
<v Speaker 6>to have all of those sort of under round.

0:09:08.200 --> 0:09:10.360
<v Speaker 2>And Terry, were you the Steve Smith of the family.

0:09:10.400 --> 0:09:11.760
<v Speaker 2>How did it work? Were you pretty good at or

0:09:11.760 --> 0:09:14.240
<v Speaker 2>wuld dad always win? No?

0:09:14.800 --> 0:09:15.560
<v Speaker 6>Usually my daughter.

0:09:17.000 --> 0:09:19.800
<v Speaker 2>Wow, that's great. That's a great game. Terry, Thank you

0:09:28.800 --> 0:09:32.120
<v Speaker 6>We played the really obvious abuse game and.

0:09:32.240 --> 0:09:35.240
<v Speaker 2>We said no to the kidnap game.

0:09:35.720 --> 0:09:36.920
<v Speaker 3>Did not come from me, no.

0:09:37.920 --> 0:09:41.080
<v Speaker 2>Right, obvious abuse game? How does this work?

0:09:41.520 --> 0:09:44.280
<v Speaker 6>So say someone waiting at the lights or something like that,

0:09:44.320 --> 0:09:46.200
<v Speaker 6>you put up the lights, you wind your window hand,

0:09:46.240 --> 0:09:48.160
<v Speaker 6>and you yell out something really obvious about them.

0:09:48.200 --> 0:09:49.199
<v Speaker 5>See your scream.

0:09:49.160 --> 0:09:50.559
<v Speaker 6>You're wearing a red hat.

0:09:51.320 --> 0:09:52.079
<v Speaker 5>And I turn.

0:09:51.960 --> 0:09:55.080
<v Speaker 6>Around, ready to be aggressive back and quite off to laugh,

0:09:55.200 --> 0:09:57.960
<v Speaker 6>realizing that you've just pointed out something really obvious.

0:09:58.360 --> 0:10:02.240
