Speaker 3: Got anything good?
Speaker 4: Hey?
Speaker 5: This is the Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1: Tits of today's show.
Speaker 2: I'm going to call it now because this is not
Speaker 2: going to be a normal show from us.
Speaker 1: Today.
Speaker 2: Is called a courtesy call because we must just get.
Speaker 1: Into this now.
Speaker 2: Often on the radio shows they just start, we start
Speaker 2: talking in and then you discover what we're talking about
Speaker 2: midway through the break. I'm now going to tell you
Speaker 2: what we're talking about. We're talking about Jack Post leaving
Speaker 2: the show.
Speaker 1: This right, I don't know what to say.
Speaker 2: I'll tell you one thing that's very clear. So Jack
Speaker 2: and I met up yesterday in this radio studio, and
Speaker 2: I wasn't sure what kind of version of you I
Speaker 2: was going to see. I was really speechless to see
Speaker 2: a ten year younger version of Jack actually held in
Speaker 2: Patsy looked his eyes. You had baby eyes, you know
Speaker 2: when we're born and you're seeing Gordon like this, and
Speaker 2: I saw my daughter's like this. They're just pure light
Speaker 2: and loving energy. They're like luminous. That's why I saw
Speaker 2: that you had had baby eyes. You looked so happy.
Speaker 6: I think somewhere in your eyes I saw a bit
Speaker 6: of jealousy as well.
Speaker 2: I was frightened, like, is this what it looks like
Speaker 2: to leave the compound? It was like Jack mcame, Jack Tufrain, No,
Speaker 2: I'm Brooks. I must never leave.
Speaker 7: I'm Brooks Compania forever.
Speaker 6: Neither of you are Brooks. You could both last on
Speaker 6: the outside.
Speaker 1: You're leaving the show.
Speaker 2: This has been a really intense couple of days. I
Speaker 2: asked Jack to take Thursday and Friday off to think
Speaker 2: about it.
Speaker 1: He told me he didn't need that time.
Speaker 2: He was still leaving, which is he literally called me
Speaker 2: out of the blue with no warning that he was
Speaker 2: thinking about leaving within ten days. Wednesday afternoon, and he
Speaker 2: actually called the phone call a courtesy call.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I would pick my words again if I could
Speaker 6: go back to Wednesday.
Speaker 2: But somehow your language gave you away. We're going to
Speaker 2: miss you deep.
Speaker 6: I'm going to miss you guys so much. And it
Speaker 6: does feel.
Speaker 1: Abrupt, and I'm glad you're aware.
Speaker 6: I am aware, like I would have wanted it to
Speaker 6: finish in a different way. But I leave with nothing
Speaker 6: but gratitude and so much love for you guys and
Speaker 6: for the show. I really it has been an amazing
Speaker 6: period of my life and in some ways surreal to
Speaker 6: say goodbye to it. But I can't tell you how
Speaker 6: much it means that you guys have been supportive, accepting,
Speaker 6: understanding of this decision. And I'm going to miss you
Speaker 6: so much.
Speaker 2: We're going to deeply miss you, Jack, and I miss
Speaker 2: you every morning because you know, you and I have
Speaker 2: built the show link by link, show by chow for
Speaker 2: the last and it is a very uniquely Jack departure.
Speaker 2: Jack's famous for leaving when we go out very early.
Speaker 2: We're two and a half weeks away from marking seven
Speaker 2: years of the show. You couldn't even get that.
Speaker 1: You couldn't even get that victory lap. I'll just call
Speaker 1: it Friday.
Speaker 6: I've been calling it seven years. But you're right, it's attached.
Speaker 2: Sure, there's always been as to expite the seven years,
Speaker 2: you're really fitting that seven years.
Speaker 6: You can round it up to seven years, I think.
Speaker 2: And tell us then because people want to know. You know,
Speaker 2: if you listen to the show regular you're a big
Speaker 2: part of the show, and people want to know why
Speaker 2: you're going. Because it's very easy to walk out and
Speaker 2: shows when they're not going very well.
Speaker 1: But the show is number one. Everything is going very well.
Speaker 2: You and I haven't had a fall out with Sandy's
Speaker 2: why many shows actually just break apart.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 2: I'm lovingly letting you go. I want you to be free.
Speaker 2: I'm going to deeply miss you. But I could tell
Speaker 2: that even when we spoke very suddenly last week, this
Speaker 2: was a really really heartfelt decision for you.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and it's not something I do lightly. It's not
Speaker 6: like I wake up Wednesday morning and go I've had
Speaker 6: enough of this. I'm so proud to be leaving where
Speaker 6: it is. The show's at number one. I love you
Speaker 6: guys deeply. I wish you all the best for the future.
Speaker 6: But it's just time for me to go. Something deep
Speaker 6: in my gut that I can't even really articulate, you
Speaker 6: saying your time has come, and to find out what
Speaker 6: is next. I think I have to say goodbye, breathe
Speaker 6: some space into my life away from this radio show,
Speaker 6: and see what comes next and what creative energy returns
Speaker 6: to me in and what I could do after this.
Speaker 6: There is no plan There's definitely no Plan A or
Speaker 6: Plan B.
Speaker 2: This is a bit of surprising yesterday when I met
Speaker 2: Jack over the weekend, because I was concerned I was
Speaker 2: I actually said, Jack, you have for money. I was
Speaker 2: going to lend him some money for a couple of months.
Speaker 2: Jobs around, but it takes real guts and courage to
Speaker 2: actually take a leap.
Speaker 6: And you're not going to another job, No, there's nothing planned.
Speaker 6: And so what you're gonna do like next week, I
Speaker 6: don't know what. All I could think last night I
Speaker 6: was going to better is all I could think about
Speaker 6: is like next Sunday, I'll just be here in this
Speaker 6: same house, sitting across from the same people, but I
Speaker 6: won't have anything to do the next day. And it's
Speaker 6: scares me, terrifies me, but it also excites me and
Speaker 6: fills me with joy. And it's really hard to explain
Speaker 6: to people. My parents didn't understand it when I told them.
Speaker 6: Many people who I've told over the last couple of
Speaker 6: days have been surprised. There is I'm not got a
Speaker 6: stepping stone to the next thing, but I'm comfortable with that,
Speaker 6: and I'm calm in the fact that I'll wait for
Speaker 6: whatever is next.
Speaker 2: It's incredible, I mean, or of your courage to do that. Jack,
Speaker 2: to actually have the real courage to listen to your
Speaker 2: own life and what it's asking of you. Most of us,
Speaker 2: at various times don't listen.
Speaker 1: To that calling. We've deny it for a bit.
Speaker 2: But you actually did slow down and really did listen
Speaker 2: to that calling. And you know you've taken a huge
Speaker 2: decision for you and also your family as well, because
Speaker 2: you know we've spoken a lot on and off air.
Speaker 2: You have struggled at times with his as they are
Speaker 2: really demanding. They are just demanding ours.
Speaker 6: And I look at you sometimes, I look at you,
Speaker 6: guys like you've been in breakfast radio for so much
Speaker 6: of your life.
Speaker 1: Pats, when you say, look at us, guys, what exactly
Speaker 1: did that mean? Purchase gorgo? You're about to die?
Speaker 6: Please?
Speaker 1: Generation, I thought, is that twenty seventy? Is that ain't
Speaker 1: for me?
Speaker 2: I'm leaving just shy of seven of his twenty seven.
Speaker 2: I don't want that.
Speaker 6: No, I think it's commendable.
Speaker 1: I think commendable. So let me just pat me on
Speaker 1: the head a commendable young mate. John. Yeah, well, shuckers
Speaker 1: out of here.
Speaker 6: But really, sometimes it feels like even though in here
Speaker 6: and talking to you guys is so much of a joy.
Speaker 6: Sometimes when you pull back, the whole thing does feel
Speaker 6: like like an endurance challenge, like day after day, week
Speaker 6: after week, year after a year doing these hours.
Speaker 2: It took his toll on you, mate, and from route
Speaker 2: all the hours.
Speaker 1: Like I'm you're still there with it.
Speaker 6: Last week I thought you were about to jump off
Speaker 6: ship as well.
Speaker 1: She was saying, like she's she's got a lot going
Speaker 1: on at the moment.
Speaker 2: You didn't hear a Friday when she did the show Cancuss,
Speaker 2: so it was hard to tell watch his normal pats
Speaker 2: on what's concuss?
Speaker 1: Pats she head by that shower door.
Speaker 6: But sometimes it does feel like running a marathon. And
Speaker 6: I'm just at the end of what I can give
Speaker 6: and run for this show, even though I love it
Speaker 6: so much.
Speaker 1: The toothpaste has been squeezed dry.
Speaker 6: I've squeezed it out, and I can't be happier to
Speaker 6: leave it where it is and to still feel the
Speaker 6: love you guys are giving to me my support. Thank
Speaker 6: you so much.
Speaker 2: Well, we're going to miss you, AMENSI chat big, big
Speaker 2: part of my life last seven years. But I still
Speaker 2: hope the one day you and I are passed across
Speaker 2: we end up working together in some form down the road.

Speaker 6: sea sowing. It has not been an easy decision.
Speaker 1: Because the truth is you almost left the show two
Speaker 1: years ago.
Speaker 6: Two years ago, Jack left Patch.

Speaker 4: out and I was coming home on the night Rider,
Speaker 4: which is a bus that you catch when you two
Speaker 4: poor to get a taxi home. Ever since hearing it
Speaker 4: that night, I've loved the song. It's got a very
Speaker 4: cool energy, and it just takes me back to those
Speaker 4: late nights and early Sunday mornings on the night Rider
Speaker 4: at a time when I had very little money, but
Speaker 4: I was very happy.
Speaker 1: For years. When I first moved to London.
Speaker 2: I was using the night rider there and it's full
Speaker 2: of like you know, when you couldn't afford to get home,
Speaker 2: you couldn't fall of a taxi.
Speaker 1: There was that bus and it was full of.
Speaker 2: Night walkers, drunks, serial killers, poor innocent shift workers. It
Speaker 2: was too much going on. That was every and Friday,
Speaker 2: Saturday night for three years of my life.

Speaker 6: this is my burden.
Speaker 2: Yes, this is something biblical about it, the chunder chalice.
Speaker 2: You know, I remember seeing the night riding in London once,
Speaker 2: like two or three a m of a Sunday morning,
Speaker 2: after a Saturday night, and this guy was. It was
Speaker 2: winter time, so it was like really bitterly cold, and
Speaker 2: you could see this this yet this guy did not
Speaker 2: look very well, like you knew that Chunder was coming.
Speaker 2: And I was like, looking out the window, I can't
Speaker 2: can't see that. I'll start to try even wretch seeing it.
Speaker 2: And I remember just a corner of my eye seeing
Speaker 2: him cut up his jumper and throw up into his
Speaker 2: own jumper, classic moves, and then he just had to
Speaker 2: sit there with like a chunda vest.
Speaker 6: But again he's done that.
Speaker 1: Thank you for doing.
Speaker 2: That, Amanda, Thank you very much for provoking these beautiful
Speaker 2: memories and sharing of people gendering on the night Rider.
Speaker 2: Cool in if you've got any chunder memories on the
Speaker 2: night Rider? All right, Amanda, what's your next song?
Speaker 3: For me?
Speaker 4: This takes me back to a time when my kids
Speaker 4: were really little and not everything that came out of
Speaker 4: my mouth was annoying to them. And they love the
Speaker 4: Trolls movie, which of course featured this song. And when
Speaker 4: I hear the song, I can just remember them sitting
Speaker 4: on the couch, bundled up under a doner watching this
Speaker 4: movie and I can still hear see giggles for twenty sixteen.
Speaker 4: I've chosen Can't Stop the Feeling.
Speaker 5: By Justin Timberlake Christian O'Connell show go on podcast.
Speaker 2: Christian and joined the show this morning. Very sad to
Speaker 2: see it here that Jack is leaving the show. Yes,
Speaker 2: we announced an hour ago that Jack is going to
Speaker 2: is finishing his time on the show. He goes with
Speaker 2: our full hearts and blessings. But he's done something which
Speaker 2: is very, very hard to do in life. He's making
Speaker 2: a courageous decision to listen to the callings that I
Speaker 2: think have been in there for a while, and he's
Speaker 2: going when things are good, and he's going to.
Speaker 1: This is still a bit I could not do. To nothing.
Speaker 6: Nothing. I don't know. I truly don't know what's next.
Speaker 2: Well, now, the night bus, the night Rider is still running.
Speaker 2: It's a really Erica just send us lovely miss saying
Speaker 2: she's going to miss you and wish you the best. Chris,
Speaker 2: I'm a bus driver drove the night Rider this very
Speaker 2: weekend in the suburbs. They still are in operation. I
Speaker 2: didn't know that, Erica.
Speaker 6: I thought the idea was from the city to the subject. Yes,
Speaker 6: why are you going suburb.
Speaker 2: Yes, Erica, please get back to us. This is a
Speaker 2: lovely email as well. If you want to say something
Speaker 2: to Jack, don't bother emailing him.
Speaker 6: He's never checked his email in almost seven years. Literally
Speaker 6: email me and I'll read it's the mad okay, but
Speaker 6: this is a lovely email from Lee in Greensborough.
Speaker 1: More than Christian, Pats and Jack. Wow.
Speaker 2: Just trying to absorb the big news from Jack this morning.
Speaker 2: Been listening to the show since the early days. It
Speaker 2: feels like I'm losing a friendship, which sounds a bit
Speaker 2: weird now I get that, Lee, but can only wish
Speaker 2: Jack and Bianca all the us going forward. I've enjoyed
Speaker 2: shadow when Jack Shad is IVF journey and still remember
Speaker 2: there when he told you on air that Bianca was pregnant.
Speaker 2: Ps Rio and Caitlyn would be great as Jack's. They've
Speaker 2: done this replacement. I don't know why you put that
Speaker 2: in inverted commas. Is that a slur at Jack? Then
Speaker 2: there's a lot going on right now and trying to process.
Speaker 2: Please slow everything down as love it when they filled
Speaker 2: him before on the show Lee. That's very very Oh
Speaker 2: that comes from actually producer.
Speaker 5: Gatling Christian Connell show podcast.
Speaker 2: Christian just heard about Jack leaving will certainly leave shoes
Speaker 2: to fill.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you've deliberately left off big shoes.
Speaker 2: I'm not going to run all this week and only
Speaker 2: refer to it as he's leaving shoes to fill.
Speaker 6: You know, the term is definitely big shoes to fill.
Speaker 6: The shoes to field doesn't mean anything.
Speaker 1: I prefer shoes to fill. There are shoes to fill.
Speaker 6: He's less shoes in the changing.
Speaker 2: Reaction, indeterminate size. It's a sliding scale. I wonder if
Speaker 2: this isn't Jack's way of announcing beetle Chack the tour
Speaker 2: coming to Anara.
Speaker 1: Cell near you. Listen. I actually fear that that's all
Speaker 1: broke our boy. That and then the bombers over the weekend.
Speaker 1: What have you said?
Speaker 2: One of you said that those checkers die our bombs fan.
Speaker 2: This is a big overreaction.
Speaker 1: That's it. Radio career is over. That's Zach Merrett and
Speaker 1: the Bollers. I tell you what is incredible? Right?
Speaker 2: What of you this morning? That's just saying, hey, didn't
Speaker 2: that psychic rita last year call this and she did so?
Speaker 2: I said, I think it was in September time, it
Speaker 2: was April, so just over a year ago, all of
Speaker 2: you went to see Rita the Psychic, and.
Speaker 6: I remember her saying many things, one that all our
Speaker 6: plumbing was about to die or something was going to
Speaker 6: happen with our plumbing, that Caitlin had ten knives in
Speaker 6: her back, and then I had forgotten what had been
Speaker 6: said about me.
Speaker 1: Listen to this.
Speaker 6: The biggest one I got my time at my current
Speaker 6: workplace is temporary.
Speaker 2: Now, I swear at the time I laughed that the
Speaker 2: plumbing stuff, but that is thirteen months ago.
Speaker 1: You reach out. The psydekicks saw it.
Speaker 6: The biggest one I got, my time at my current
Speaker 6: workplace is temporary.
Speaker 1: Do you think that's quite chilling? Yeah, that's incredible.
Speaker 2: If you do want a message for Jack, email me
Speaker 2: Christian at Christian O'Connell dot com dot au. Right now,
Speaker 2: we want to find out were you in a band
Speaker 2: at school?
Speaker 1: You were in a band at school?
Speaker 10: I was.
Speaker 6: We were punk band when I was fifteen. We did
Speaker 6: punk covers and we had a few originals, including an
Speaker 6: anti George Bush song, Wow Green.
Speaker 1: Day, Stick It to the Man. Do you know many
Speaker 1: of the lyrics?
Speaker 6: It was called f you Bush and.
Speaker 2: Handle one of those parental advisories New Green Bridge on
Speaker 2: me at the front of your CD cover, and that.
Speaker 6: Made up most of the chorus of the song. We
Speaker 6: also had another song which I've only written the chorus
Speaker 6: to and hadn't written the verse two. And when we
Speaker 6: played live on stage, and this is the only CD
Speaker 6: recording I have of the band playing, I just made
Speaker 6: up the verse while I was on stage. It was
Speaker 6: like one, two, three, five, don't know what's up?
Speaker 1: And what was the band called?
Speaker 6: Last Chance?
Speaker 1: Actually a good name. That's a good name. Rio?
Speaker 2: What was your So you were in these school? You
Speaker 2: were in a band at school? Chili Pepper's covers?
Speaker 6: Yes, we did Chili Peppers covers?
Speaker 1: And did you find any audio? Did mumbledown get is this?
Speaker 8: I know there's a DVD because I do remember. We
Speaker 8: did a Battle of the Band in year ten. Our
Speaker 8: band name was called ten Genius.
Speaker 6: Because you're in ten. Well, the only thing you really
Speaker 6: need to get right as a cover band is a club.
Speaker 6: I saw recently a Powder Finger cover band called Pull
Speaker 6: My Finger, and I just saw that and I thought,
Speaker 6: that's so good that even if you weren't wanting to be.
Speaker 1: So good, I'm here with that guy. That's so embarrassing. Wow,
Speaker 1: geniuses in plain view.
Speaker 8: I remember coming out for the first performance and I
Speaker 8: was like, I want to have a really cool intro, like,
Speaker 8: you know, like some crowd work. So I plan to
Speaker 8: say watch your heads, everybody, because we're about to tear
Speaker 8: the roof off. Which is embarrassing enough, but my voice.
Speaker 2: My backside is actually sweating just now the cringe of
Speaker 2: anyone actually saying that out loud.
Speaker 8: My voice is also breaking at the time. You wash
Speaker 8: your heads, everybody, because we're about to tear the roof off.
Speaker 6: This this sucker.
Speaker 1: Under the bridge.
Speaker 6: That well, my've experienced. First live show that we played,
Speaker 6: we didn't even get to play to a crowd when
Speaker 6: we started. So they put us on as a first band,
Speaker 6: and they said we want a band. It's playing as
Speaker 6: we open the doors and people are coming into the venue.
Speaker 6: So when we first got on stage, there was nobody
Speaker 6: in the audience. I couldn't even say something witty.
Speaker 1: To the crowd.
Speaker 2: All right, were you in a band at school? Give
Speaker 2: us a call and don't forget shoes to.
Speaker 5: Feel Christian O'Connell show go on podcast.
Speaker 2: Christian, I wasn't about at school, like Jant was saying.
Speaker 2: We spent way too much time, Tony be clever with
Speaker 2: the band name cover your Ears. So when they were
Speaker 2: introduced ladies and gentlemen, cover your.
Speaker 6: Ears, they're going to be loud, yeah.
Speaker 2: If they go Yeah, too much time thinking about a
Speaker 2: cute name. Laurie, good morning, welcome to the show.
Speaker 11: Good morning. How you guys doing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're good, Laurie, thanks for corning. And so you
Speaker 2: were in a band at school.
Speaker 11: Yes, and I had an absolute shocker. So I'm literally
Speaker 11: doing a talent.
Speaker 10: Quest for by.
Speaker 11: It was actually going to be a comedy act, but
Speaker 11: at the last minute we changed to being doing a
Speaker 11: poison nothing but a good time, and we weren't musicians yet,
Speaker 11: so cardboard guitars. What ended up happening was we had
Speaker 11: everything rehearsed and the singer accidentally turned his mic on
Speaker 11: and started singing that I lost to drumstick and myself,
Speaker 11: who was supposed to do a big sister kick during
Speaker 11: the song, fell flat on my butt and right in
Speaker 11: front of the crowd, and we actually ended up coming
Speaker 11: second because everyone thought we were a comedy act and
Speaker 11: we were out.
Speaker 6: The way you described it felt like a red Faces.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's getting tens across the board in the studio here.
Speaker 1: I'm impressed with.
Speaker 11: The serious But the funny thing is that I actually
Speaker 11: ended up becoming a musician. So I'm actually a self
Speaker 11: taught guitarist for thirty five years now in a cover band,
Speaker 11: so with Gravity six so loving it.
Speaker 1: And what songs do you cover? Rock songs?
Speaker 6: Or we cover everything.
Speaker 11: From Billie Idle to Abba to newer stuff. But yeah,
Speaker 11: have been doing that on the side for a lot
Speaker 11: of guitar for a fair while. But yeah, doing this
Speaker 11: band now, so we're currently performing. But yeah, interesting twists
Speaker 11: to everything.
Speaker 2: Now tell me this right, and your opinion on this too,
Speaker 2: chat right, I've been thinking I would like.
Speaker 1: To learn a musical instrument, right, I have a love
Speaker 1: Do you think.
Speaker 2: You can go from zero to learning to play the
Speaker 2: guitar at decent level or my better picking drums or
Speaker 2: a piano.
Speaker 11: No, absolutely, I'm self taught.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he is.
Speaker 11: The thing that I suggest is number one, play stuff
Speaker 11: that you're passionate about that always helps, and pretty much
Speaker 11: just get a good set up guitar because it's a
Speaker 11: difference between driving a playing and Diana Ferrari. But you
Speaker 11: can definitely learn.
Speaker 6: I used to actually been guitar, Laurie, he didn't pick
Speaker 6: up any oldocoustic guitars. Have to go out and buy
Speaker 6: Gibson or.
Speaker 1: Tomorrow because expectations.
Speaker 6: All of a sudden, he's paying two and a half
Speaker 6: thousand dollars for something you.
Speaker 2: I'm jamming with Oasis when they're here in October.
Speaker 11: Often with the guys, get a cheat the target, get
Speaker 11: it set up. That's the difference.
Speaker 2: Great stuff there, Laurie, Thanks mate, real do you think
Speaker 2: I could do it?
Speaker 1: Do you learning drums?
Speaker 6: Before Laurie said that, I was I was going to say,
Speaker 6: maybe start with piano because it's a little easier to
Speaker 6: get into the.
Speaker 1: Yeah, why is guitar harder than piano?
Speaker 6: Well, guitar you've got to learn music and then technically
Speaker 6: figure out your fingers in the strings, whereas pianos learn music,
Speaker 6: but then you just push down on a key and
Speaker 6: that's pretty Do you think drums is then drums you
Speaker 6: don't have to really learn the drums And thank you.
Speaker 5: Good chat the Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1: Right now, were you in a band at school? Now?
Speaker 2: A lot of drummers are contact to me. They didn't
Speaker 2: like your words saying drums are the easiest thing to learn.
Speaker 1: Christian. Drums are not easy.
Speaker 2: I have a drummer sign who tried teaching the family
Speaker 2: poly rhythms.
Speaker 1: What are those?
Speaker 6: I actually don't know, But what I said is you don't.
Speaker 6: You don't have to learn music. You only have to
Speaker 6: learn rhythm. With drums, you only need to know the notes.
Speaker 1: Would you know how to do this?
Speaker 12: Try?
Speaker 1: Christian?
Speaker 2: Try tapping a four beat with your left hand, a
Speaker 2: three beat with your right hand, and a two beat
Speaker 2: with your right foot, all the same time, as like
Speaker 2: dividing your body into four and having them all work
Speaker 2: independently but together.
Speaker 1: I don't think you can learn a musical instrument over
Speaker 1: SMS text.
Speaker 2: I think you need to actually a proper inputson lessons Richard. Okay,
Speaker 2: we're asking if you were in a band at school, Cupo,
Speaker 2: you were good.
Speaker 1: Morning, Good morning, Christian.
Speaker 10: How are you now?
Speaker 2: It's just the right Are we getting your name right?
Speaker 2: Often the producers misspeller? Is it Coupo?
Speaker 10: That is correct?
Speaker 12: Yes?
Speaker 1: Good, okay, Coupo. Tell us about the band name.
Speaker 12: First of all, at school, we're a fairly studious band
Speaker 12: and we're called When Colic High School was an institution
Speaker 12: of wellness and great learning. And we're a rock band,
Speaker 12: a five place rock band called MTD spelt what let's
Speaker 12: stand for Minor Technical Difficulties.
Speaker 1: A great new radio quiz. We don't know we were
Speaker 1: in the bad n.
Speaker 10: Ninety three I think uh uh and uh. Most of
Speaker 10: our band members hung around the library at lunchtime. So
Speaker 10: and we will soon recognized as Meet the Dorks. So
Speaker 10: we had to we had to.
Speaker 1: Have as a great name. I love that band name.
Speaker 10: I was pretty happy with Meet the Dorks. It sort
Speaker 10: of gave us a bit of a rolled off the
Speaker 10: tongue a bit, but anyway, I was. The band lasted
Speaker 10: about twelve months. We tried to change the band name
Speaker 10: to a brand of vodka, a Swedish vodka or a
Speaker 10: Russian vodka, something called tazas a Bitch or something. Anyway,
Speaker 10: it was a great time in my life. And thirty
Speaker 10: thirty two years later, here I am. We've started a

Speaker 13: My high school teacher said we could play at the
Speaker 13: end of your concent in year twelve, and she didn't know.
Speaker 13: But the song went for about eight and a half
Speaker 13: minutes drum solo, semar guitar solos. When we stopped in
Speaker 13: the middle of the drum solo, everyone you know sighed
Speaker 13: a sigh of relief that it was over, only for

Speaker 6: on one email.
Speaker 1: Christian.
Speaker 2: So yesterday you went off to see the Tigers game
Speaker 2: against the North.
Speaker 6: Yes, so I did something that you never meant to do,
Speaker 6: and that is support another football team. Since I was
Speaker 6: five years old, I have been black and red. I don't.
Speaker 6: This is not a reflection of what happened to the
Speaker 6: bombers on Saturday night, though that was difficult to watch.
Speaker 6: I took my brother to a North Melbourne game and
Speaker 6: I got caught up in this spirit. I wore a
Speaker 6: North Melbourne beanie. And because I've been playing golf, I
Speaker 6: made friends with this guy, Bailey Scott. He plays for
Speaker 6: North Melbourne. He's a lovely guy. I played golf with
Speaker 6: him and he invited us to the games to come
Speaker 6: down to the rooms afterwards, so he got us the tickets.
Speaker 6: I'm sitting with his girlfriend on.
Speaker 2: My other side, coming down to like the changing rooms.
Speaker 6: After the game, we went down to the change rooms.
Speaker 6: So we me and my brother and it's his birthday,
Speaker 6: Like perfect weekend he's been and he's been a lifelong
Speaker 6: North Melbourne supporter. Sitting with all the wags. Though they
Speaker 6: don't like that term. They prefer the word partners.
Speaker 2: And the funny how they don't like that abusive term men.
Speaker 6: Of it just means I didn't know it's derogatory when
Speaker 6: I used it, But they actually said we don't like
Speaker 6: that term. We don't use it. And the parents of
Speaker 6: all the players and it was watching such a sweet
Speaker 6: way to watch a football game with people's parents going
Speaker 6: like yes, yes, oh he did it. Oh he'll be
Speaker 6: so happy with that. That kind of stuff under.
Speaker 1: You know, I don't think I've ever heard their song
Speaker 1: as well, because.
Speaker 6: It's not it's not one that gets snapped.
Speaker 2: Already played that much. So there's fires up and you
Speaker 2: make your way down to the How do you get
Speaker 2: in there?
Speaker 12: So?
Speaker 1: Is there a list that you're on?
Speaker 6: There? You have to wear a special arm band that
Speaker 6: his partner gave me. We shuffle into this lift. It
