Speaker 2: thumbs up too?
Speaker 5: I did want to pay homage to Diane Keaton, who
Speaker 5: we sadly lost this week, far too young at seventeen
Speaker 5: to nine. And I was thinking some of my favorite movies,
Speaker 5: and there's so many. I watched Father of the Bride
Speaker 5: last Saturday night.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we watched it Monday night with the girls. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but there was.
Speaker 5: One because I said so, which was a two thousand
Speaker 5: and seven flicking you know, just a romantic, sort of
Speaker 5: funny story of an overbearing mum with three grown up
Speaker 5: daughters and trying to get them set for life and
Speaker 5: essentially and this is something that I'm grappling with right
Speaker 5: now with Audrey. You have done so with your two girls,
Speaker 5: that whole thing of letting go as a parent. And
Speaker 5: so Diane's character she there's this beautiful monologue in one
Speaker 5: of the scenes where she says, you know, how do
Speaker 5: I let go and let essentially let you fly, Bertie Fly.
Speaker 6: It's just gorgeous.
Speaker 2: She could do incredible drama like movies, not the Godfather,
Speaker 2: than the comedies, romantic comedies.
Speaker 1: I've never seen Dane Keen in a bad movie.
Speaker 2: No, I don't think she made any bad movies now
Speaker 2: incredible ones. If you really are looking for something a
Speaker 2: movie to watch every weekend, you can't go past any
Speaker 2: of the light forty odd movies. I think I saw
Speaker 2: at the other day. She made incredible range. All right,
Speaker 2: what else, Pats, she gets your daughter? The other thing?
Speaker 5: Last night we watched I Like Me, which is the
Speaker 5: John Candy documentary.
Speaker 1: I've seen this.
Speaker 5: I Oh my god, is it Joyoush's not a funny
Speaker 5: funny guy.
Speaker 6: Absolutely and what a talent.
Speaker 5: And it's directed by Colin Hanks, which is Tom.
Speaker 1: Hanks's son gifty comedian himself.
Speaker 5: Yanne Reddold's as well, And it's really got a hues
Speaker 5: who of Hollywood has not paying homage to John Candy
Speaker 5: and just how realistic and authentic he was on the screen,
Speaker 5: and how he brought his total self to the screen
Speaker 5: and grappling with several things like imposter syndrome later in
Speaker 5: his career, also the loss of his father at just five,
Speaker 5: and how he brought that desire for connection and family
Speaker 5: to the screen. And you know, there's that scene in Planes,
Speaker 5: Trains and Automobiles it's Steve Martin where Steve Martin has
Speaker 5: a go at him in the hotel room, you know,
Speaker 5: saying how.
Speaker 6: Useless he was, and he says, I like me. And
Speaker 6: it's beautiful.
Speaker 2: It's a really moving comedy. Planes Trains and Ortobiles. I
Speaker 2: love Steve By and it's one of my comic heroes.
Speaker 2: But I'm telling you now, Planes Trains and Automobiles is
Speaker 2: John Candy's movie. Yes, it's not the same movie without
Speaker 2: John Candy. He provides all the heart in it as
Speaker 2: well and proper old school screen presence.
Speaker 1: Yeah. SOE like cool Runnings, there should just.
Speaker 2: Be a twenty four hour Movie channel that just shows
Speaker 2: John Candy movies. This relentlessly funny. It's one of those guys.
Speaker 2: Is built for comedy as well.
Speaker 5: Yes, yes, And that scene in the train station where
Speaker 5: Steve Martin comes in and he's just sitting there and
Speaker 5: he's told him that he's on his way home to
Speaker 5: his wife, but of course his wife has died like
Speaker 5: eight years before.
Speaker 7: There is no wife.
Speaker 5: Steve Martin said, they actually when they went to final cut,
Speaker 5: they cut a heap out of it, and he said,
Speaker 5: I wish they hadn't because it was just the most extraordinary.
Speaker 2: You can see the full form scene online. Oh my god,
Speaker 2: it's really watch this beautiful. Yeah, it is great. All right,
Speaker 2: lovely stuff pants. We take a break. We'll come back
Speaker 2: here on gold with double thumbs up and you can
Speaker 2: share my shoes as well. What are you enjoying at
Speaker 2: the moment? Text me oh four seven five three one
Speaker 2: oh four three.
Speaker 4: The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 2: Christian O'Connell Show every Friday. We got around the team
Speaker 2: first half hour the show. We call it double thumbs
Speaker 2: up the things that we're enjoying at the moment. Two
Speaker 2: TV shows for me. One it's a big new show
Speaker 2: on Netflix called Boots. Set in the nineties, bully teenager
Speaker 2: joins his best friend. They decided to impulsively go and
Speaker 2: join the US Marines. It's about boot camp. It's about identity,
Speaker 2: coming of age, camaraderie. It is so joyous and really
Speaker 2: funny and absolutely loving it. Cannot recommend it enough. Really
Speaker 2: really really great show as well. It's very very good
Speaker 2: set in the nineties. That's Boots on Netflix. And if
Speaker 2: you like a TV show that is grim, will break
Speaker 2: your heart. I've got the show for you. My wife
Speaker 2: refused to watch it and keep saying to me afterwards
Speaker 2: when I just come out, I'm quiet about five or tens.
Speaker 2: You've got to put yourself back together. It's the same
Speaker 2: writer and showrunn a guy called Brad Inglesby who did
Speaker 2: Mayor of East Town.
Speaker 1: Right. I wish it were a great couple of seasons
Speaker 1: of a really great crime drama.
Speaker 2: This is called Task. It's the best thing I've ever
Speaker 2: seen Mark Ruffalo do. Oh my God, that's blown me away.
Speaker 2: It's week by week and normally get quite irritated with
Speaker 2: that because these days with selfish, I want I watch it. Oh,
Speaker 2: now I want to watch it now. Ain't myself tired?
Speaker 2: Give it to me now. But it's on once a week.
Speaker 2: It's worth it. If you really do like TV shows
Speaker 2: that are layered and it's complex. It blurs the line
Speaker 2: completely between good and bad. It's basically the TV show
Speaker 2: remember the movie Heat. We've got cops and robbers, but
Speaker 2: they kind of a grudge and respect between each other.
Speaker 2: It's like a TV modern day version of that.
Speaker 8: Oh you would bloody love? Oh my god, I do.
Speaker 8: This show actually made me cry this week. It's a
Speaker 8: beautiful show, but it is not. If you're looking for
Speaker 8: a feel good show, stick to Boots. If you wanted
Speaker 8: a bit grim, if the National made the TV detective show,
Speaker 8: they would make Tasks.
Speaker 1: I have loved it Rio. What's it for you? Mate?
Speaker 1: What do you give? Double thumbs up?
Speaker 9: If you do want something a bit lighter you just
Speaker 9: watched ask. I would highly recommend on Stand. It just
Speaker 9: came out on Sunday. It's called One More Shot. I
Speaker 9: actually saw it at the Melbourne Film Festival. It got
Speaker 9: a big standing ovation. It's awesome. It is an ausy
Speaker 9: comedy set at the turn of the millennium, So a
Speaker 9: Y two K house party with a time traveling bottle
Speaker 9: of tequila.
Speaker 7: It is so much fun.
Speaker 9: It's very aussy, very ousy humor, but like really really well.
Speaker 1: Done, brilliant.
Speaker 7: It actually starts.
Speaker 1: We need to get behind this.
Speaker 7: It's really good.
Speaker 9: And do you remember we a few years ago we
Speaker 9: did Grouse the musical, which was we did our own
Speaker 9: Aussie version of Greece for grown ups. Yes, it was
Speaker 9: written by Fiona Harris, your friend and Mike.
Speaker 1: Yes.
Speaker 7: Yeah, she's great. So got a show connection.
Speaker 9: It's so much fun, a great like a Sunday night watch,
Speaker 9: perfect like perfect to one one shot, one more shot,
Speaker 9: one more shot.
Speaker 1: And it's on Stan.
Speaker 7: It's on Stan. It's brilliant.
Speaker 4: Okay, Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 2: On the show right now, we're doing double thumbs up.
Speaker 2: You tell us about the things you're into at the
Speaker 2: moment that you would recommend. It might be a TV show, book,
Speaker 2: whatever it is. Oh four seventy five three one O
Speaker 2: four three, Alex will short, double thumbs.
Speaker 1: Up, mate, what do you enjoying.
Speaker 10: I'm staying with Diane Caaden, who passed away in the
Speaker 10: week at age seventy nine, and I guess this is
Speaker 10: such a great film for her range the Godfather trilogy.
Speaker 10: She was in Godfather one and two, and apparently the
Speaker 10: director Francis Ford Coppola, he saw her in Lovers and
Speaker 10: Other Strangers and cast her for the role of Kay
Speaker 10: Adams in The Godfather, which was Michael Corleoni's wife, who
Speaker 10: was not in the mafia, had nothing to do with
Speaker 10: the mafia.
Speaker 11: At Kay.
Speaker 10: She's this white Anglo Saxon Protestant American and she provides
Speaker 10: that kind.
Speaker 11: Of that good that good versus evil.
Speaker 10: She always wants Michael Corleoni sort of to legitimize the
Speaker 10: business and tries to protect her children from that awful,
Speaker 10: awful crime family, I suppose, and she's family.
Speaker 11: Well, you know that's the MARKI.
Speaker 1: Lucy Goosey.
Speaker 2: You know it's not all at sea, far from it.
Speaker 1: That's not quite the American gene lads, and you know it,
Speaker 1: how am I?
Speaker 10: Anyways, she didn't want to be in Godfather too, but
Speaker 10: she read the script and let's do it. And yes,
Speaker 10: it was so so good in that And massive respect
Speaker 10: to her.
Speaker 2: If you're a Godfather fan, right, I cannot recommend enough
Speaker 2: a book I read last year, Take the Canoi. It's
Speaker 2: about the making of the Godfather. Every chapter is a
Speaker 2: bad E Belieople story, almost a story of the making
Speaker 2: of the Godfather. Is almost just as dramatic and entertaining
Speaker 2: as the actual movie itself.
Speaker 10: Highest dressing film ever made. Oh, such a great movie. Incredible,
Speaker 10: I've got one more off. Oh yeah, I'm just can
Speaker 10: I just talk about the croissants at BP. Like the
Speaker 10: croissants at BP I get. I often stop in there
Speaker 10: on my way into work. Triple thumbs up for these things.
Speaker 10: Triples they are. They're so good, they cost only cost
Speaker 10: four dollars. There's so crisp loan. What's loon learn shmoon?
Speaker 10: I say, compared to these chris smooth out of the
Speaker 10: box these things. I highly recommend them. Croissanted BP. Get
Speaker 10: in you'll love it. Love and they really are they
Speaker 10: really buttery.
Speaker 11: They're so buttery. They're so crunchy cross.
Speaker 1: I'm right now in trouble. Is very messy, aren't they?
Speaker 9: Yes, very hard to eat with any dignity that you're
Speaker 9: a mess after brushing for the next hour. Maybe we
Speaker 9: should get a French person to try the bpequas on
Speaker 9: and get a real French review to see if this
Speaker 9: up to stand it.
Speaker 1: I'm not remotely interested in doing that.
Speaker 10: Put them out of blindfold and we'll give them like
Speaker 10: different croissants.
Speaker 2: And is matched to get get out of the whole
Speaker 2: One year Old Lady interview this week, all right, don't
Speaker 2: put my head.
Speaker 1: Back on the chopping block. Okay, with a croissant review
Speaker 1: from Claws. It's Friday, guys, the shows off the tracks.
Speaker 1: I'll tell you what.
Speaker 2: I've got no time for that bloody Corleone family up
Speaker 2: to it again, Shenanigans.
Speaker 4: The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1: Anyone else on this team can't stand for ironing.
Speaker 7: I hate it. It's the worst thing.
Speaker 2: It's one of the evils of modern life, isn't it.
Speaker 2: I just remember, like one of the first ideas that
Speaker 2: adult life wasn't quite what I thought was going to
Speaker 2: be as a kid, was just having to iron in
Speaker 2: my life. Before I got an into radio, I had
Speaker 2: a sales job and I just remember the bane of
Speaker 2: having to always iron shirts for work and it just
Speaker 2: been the worst part of the day every morning. It
Speaker 2: wasn't a job I wanted to do. And I'd have
Speaker 2: my mankey old ironing board and this tiny mankey flat
Speaker 2: that constantly got burgled in London where my girlfriend and
Speaker 2: I became my wife used to live and just doing
Speaker 2: those shirts every morning, thinking this it's like, you know,
Speaker 2: there's scenes in every musical where someone goes.
Speaker 1: This can't be the life for me.
Speaker 2: I be listening to the radio ironing my shirts, trying
Speaker 2: to work out how could I ever get into that
Speaker 2: box the radio to do with the guy was doing
Speaker 2: doing a breakfast show, rather than be at this ironing
Speaker 2: board ironing flipping shirts.
Speaker 9: And ironing board technology has not improved in the same oldunky.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Lillian, you know our special guest this week who
Speaker 2: turned one hundred on Wednesday. Out of all the other
Speaker 2: advancements she's seen, ironing boards are the same as when
Speaker 2: Lillian was born as they are now exactly.
Speaker 1: But what how could they improve? We're going to have
Speaker 1: ironing boards.
Speaker 9: You know what I hate is that the bit that
Speaker 9: scares me is when you put the legs up and
Speaker 9: then put them back, And I'm always worried about when
Speaker 9: you put them back.
Speaker 6: Exactly.
Speaker 5: I only do school uniforms these days, I have to say,
Speaker 5: and drives me insane because there's several plates in like
Speaker 5: Audrey's summer dress.
Speaker 1: And they're really precise in the summer dresses.
Speaker 5: Actually insane. Chris does all his own shirts. Yeah, oh absolutely, yeah.
Speaker 2: I still have to do one a week. I do
Speaker 2: on like a Sunday. And one of the things my
Speaker 2: mother in law taught me. She used to she used
Speaker 2: to come around to our house once a week and
Speaker 2: she loved daytime TV like a lot of old people
Speaker 2: who watch Alex, and she used to she used to
Speaker 2: sit from the TV. And I didn't realize you can
Speaker 2: adjust the height of an ironing board. She would, so
Speaker 2: she would sit on the couch, lower it to be
Speaker 2: sort of knee high iron and watch TV for about
Speaker 2: two hours.
Speaker 1: Oh my god. It was the perfect system.
Speaker 2: She would do it, she would she would do the inning. Alex,
Speaker 2: I'll tell you what you could do with Have you
Speaker 2: got an iron.
Speaker 1: By the way, Alex, I've got an iron.
Speaker 11: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I want to use it, mate, Because those T shirts
Speaker 2: you wear often Rio, how crumpled does Alex looks.
Speaker 9: It's almost like you deliberately crumple the T shirt. It's
Speaker 9: like you've got a T shirt.
Speaker 1: You're not like that.
Speaker 2: On Channel seven between one and three you crumple for radio.
Speaker 2: You're freshly pressed.
Speaker 11: They pressed and ready T shirt. I don't know.
Speaker 1: Mates, I can tramp for a hobo.
Speaker 11: Own my shirts, but only I'm the front part. I don't.
Speaker 11: I'm the slave.
Speaker 6: Alex.
Speaker 2: No, I've done that before, Alex. I do that sometimes
Speaker 2: if I need his shirt to go for dinner.
Speaker 1: I won't iron the back. And then when I get
Speaker 1: up to go to toilet, my wife because.
Speaker 2: You need to iron the back. It looks terrible. Who's
Speaker 2: looking at my back?
Speaker 11: Exactly?
Speaker 10: And if you're wearing a jumper, what's the point of
Speaker 10: even ironing the shirt at all?
Speaker 5: You got the shirt under the same if it's all
Speaker 5: lovely impressed, doesn't it feel like weird up against your skin?
Speaker 1: No, not at all. No, No, I tell you. One
Speaker 1: of the best things, you know, Sometimes you can.
Speaker 2: Buy stuff that actually actually does make a difference in
Speaker 2: your life. Like slow cooker. You buy that, it makes
Speaker 2: a really big difference in your life. The other one
Speaker 2: is buying a couple years ago a steamine.
Speaker 6: Yeah, are they any good?
Speaker 1: Of course? They're all handheld. We got butler. The ones
Speaker 1: that you do that my butler loves it, right, you know,
Speaker 1: is like.
Speaker 9: Obviously your classic iron, which you do on a press down.
Speaker 7: The other one that you hold up to it like
Speaker 7: a No.
Speaker 2: They have those in fancy clothes shops, don't they. They're
Speaker 2: always steaming TV they have them as well. No, this
Speaker 2: is this is an iron, but it takes like five
Speaker 2: minutes to warm it up. It's a big thing. That
Speaker 2: isn't just an iron. It sits in something with a
Speaker 2: lot of water. Yeah, my god, guys, get a steamine.
Speaker 2: It sort of melts the shirt creaseless immediately. I wish
Speaker 2: I could put it on my face because it would
Speaker 2: it would take decades off.
Speaker 1: Let's take a quick break.
Speaker 4: We were back the Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 2: Christian and I went to Algae to buy a tent,
Speaker 2: came home with a law mower. This is a throwback
Speaker 2: to all we were talking about it yesterday. Christian, I
Speaker 2: would rather iron clothes and fold clothes and put away Ryan,
Speaker 2: I know what you mean. Actually I would prefer to iron.
Speaker 2: Then for the folding and putting away of clothes is
Speaker 2: hell to me.
Speaker 9: It's hell getting all the washing in the washing machine,
Speaker 9: putting it up, fine work.
Speaker 7: The next part is it takes so long? Takes so long?
Speaker 2: I refuse, Yes, I refuse to bother folding up tea towels,
Speaker 2: so I because basically get scrunched when they come out,
Speaker 2: so I think it's okay to so often I just
Speaker 2: roll them up into a ball, put them in the drawer,
Speaker 2: struggle to shut the drawer, kick the drawers shut, and
Speaker 2: then it's like.
Speaker 1: A lovely jack in the box as you open it.
Speaker 1: My wife it doesn't nuts because she's like, fold the
Speaker 1: tea tooels. It doesn't matter. They're gonna get.
Speaker 2: They're gonna get scrunched immediately. They don't need to be folded.
Speaker 11: My mother in law irons the tea tails. What she
Speaker 11: irons the tea tails.
Speaker 2: She's down to nabby. Is she the housekeeper? That is incredible.
Speaker 10: She's done with us recently and I saw her doing
Speaker 10: it and I'm like, I was amazed.
Speaker 2: We have way too many tea towels. I'm going to
Speaker 2: do an account this weekend, but I reckon. I estimate
Speaker 2: it's at least thirty crazy Honestly, it's way too many
Speaker 2: tea towels.
Speaker 1: I've even got an oasis tea town of Coos.
Speaker 2: A receptionist gave it to me when he was in London.
Speaker 2: He saw the oasis at the merch store. Had that
Speaker 2: logo on just about anything they could make money from.
Speaker 2: And he was like a tea tower and he was like,
Speaker 2: oh my god, I bet English people love tea towels
Speaker 2: where Christian would love. It's my favorite tea towel. I
Speaker 2: think we should have for the national show that starts
Speaker 2: next year. Maybe we should have show tea towels. Yes,
Speaker 2: and every day isn't.
Speaker 7: It, but please fold them up, don't scrunch them.
Speaker 2: Like all right, whatever people got on this weekend, I
Speaker 2: have quite the giddy day to day of high level excitement.
Speaker 1: I kea flat pack assembly from my new shiny.
Speaker 2: Alex desk and Alex's chair with arms, paid extra to
Speaker 2: have with arms.
Speaker 7: Axir, what do you mean?
Speaker 2: That's what it's called. So I'm guessing that it's it's
Speaker 2: probably quite crumpled.
Speaker 1: So I've got that.
Speaker 2: And then if anyone's ever taken the warranty out on
Speaker 2: a new couch, it's called the Guardsman. It's like a
Speaker 2: stained sort of thing there they persuade. A man is
Speaker 2: coming out from guardsmen to try and de stain. Do
Speaker 2: you remember still it was about three weeks ago. It's
Speaker 2: finally the day is today. He's coming out today to
Speaker 2: de red Wine our cream couch. I am so excited, genuinely,
Speaker 2: I'm not I'm not just saying this. I'm so excited
Speaker 2: to see what he does and how he does it well.
Speaker 9: I want to see his will because there's such a
Speaker 9: mysterious organization, the guards, but it sounds like a secret
Speaker 9: society and I've never had to use them. I want
Speaker 9: to see, like, tell us what car they come in,
Speaker 9: what are they wearing? You have like a secret code
Speaker 9: or something to come in.
Speaker 7: I'm very intrigued.
Speaker 1: You know what it feels like to me. I'm going
Speaker 1: to watch him do his whole thing.
Speaker 2: It's a bit like when those plays called vide we
Speaker 2: used to see someone like make Glass or something like that. Yes,
Speaker 2: where it's instructural and actually quite so almost meditative, where
Speaker 2: you're just seeing someone very good at their job operate.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I am so excited to day by that. Ria,
Speaker 2: what's the head for you look forward to this weekend?
Speaker 7: Will not look forward to? That wouldn't be the words
Speaker 7: I'd be using.
Speaker 1: I care flat pack is not something to get excited about.
Speaker 9: I agreed to go to a play with my partner
Speaker 9: Will tonight just you know, he said it's a play
Speaker 9: up in Collin. When I said great, I did not
Speaker 9: and I won't make this mistake again. Did not read
Speaker 9: the blurb of what the play is about. It is
Speaker 9: an intimate, experimental production that draws heavily on audience participation,
Speaker 9: so much so that there's a microphone for the audience
Speaker 9: and every audience member has to come up and engage
Speaker 9: with the performance on stay.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, you do that for living. You don't
Speaker 1: do that night.
Speaker 2: And also lazy ass actors do your job.
Speaker 7: Yes, I'm paying you. Why am I doing that?
Speaker 11: Actually?
Speaker 2: Otherwise we've got to split the money with this exactly
Speaker 2: following you.
Speaker 1: That sounds dreadful. Is it a big theater or.
Speaker 9: I think it's just more of like a community. It
Speaker 9: says very intimate. I think there's only fifteen to twenty
Speaker 9: people in the space.
Speaker 1: It's pressure. Oh I need to hear about that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's a lot of pressure. Alex. What are you up
Speaker 1: to this weekend? I need some T shirts fingers crossed.
Speaker 10: I will be ironing actually because we're going to a
Speaker 10: ball in Sydney, a smashing grab affair.
Speaker 1: It is.
Speaker 11: Will be up and back just for the night. Bonnie's
Speaker 11: sister is very much.
Speaker 10: Do you mean just to night? You mean you're not

Speaker 2: This week one of our stories that we loved was
Speaker 2: about the amazing storre of the lady in Brisbane who
Speaker 2: went into labor and gave birth in the driveway of
Speaker 2: the hospital and to very quick thinking amazing maternity nurses
Speaker 2: ran out and assisted two persons. The baby was out
Speaker 2: in her car. Someone then turned up with a sheet,
Speaker 2: some kind of dignity sheet to theyn obviously get her
Speaker 2: out of the car and onto a hospital bed and
Speaker 2: into the hospital. So today we're again looking for your
Speaker 2: stories about where did you go into labor and if
Speaker 2: you weren't born in a hospital, where were you born?
Speaker 2: On thirteen double five, double two. Caitlyn, where did your
Speaker 2: mum go into hospital? This is incredible story.
Speaker 13: Yes, so my mum was at the club with my
Speaker 13: dad on the pokies when she went into labor.
Speaker 2: Now, I know some of you sometimes go a Christian.
Speaker 2: Come on, maybe it's a bit unfair to call Kitlyn
Speaker 2: a bogan. Did you just hear what Caitlyn said? Her
Speaker 2: mum was at the club, regnant, probably heavily already sort
Speaker 2: of getting ready to bursta thought the place to go
Speaker 2: is the Poky's. Yea, nine months previously there's been too
Speaker 2: much poky.
Speaker 13: So yeah, they're at a place called Twin Towns, which
Speaker 13: we call Twenties.
Speaker 6: And yeah, and they were on the Pokey's.
Speaker 13: I think it was Dad playing and then she went,
Speaker 13: oh oh, and when I think we have to go,
Speaker 13: and Dad said, can you just wait.
Speaker 6: Before I finish?
Speaker 2: And I I'm about to pay out, So yeah, you.
Speaker 13: Know, another thirty minutes they left Twenties and headed to
Speaker 13: the hospital.
Speaker 2: Wow, well that's a long time when you really go
Speaker 2: into labor as well, well, going to labor at the Pokies,
Speaker 2: you do not. Someone this week sent me an emails
Speaker 2: saying that we should do a feature called That's So Australian.
Speaker 2: If we were to do it, I feel like it's
Speaker 2: actually it's this going into labor at the Poky's.
Speaker 9: That's so and it is really your origin story.
Speaker 2: You're right, it's like Peter Parker eccellently getting bitten by
Speaker 2: the radioactive spider. Yes, Kailin actually born, actually going into
Speaker 2: labor at the Pokey's.
Speaker 4: Christian O'Connell show one podcast.
Speaker 2: This week one If you send me an email saying Christian,
Speaker 2: you should do a feature called that sole Australian. I think,
Speaker 2: with producericating saying that her mum went into labor at
Speaker 2: the Pokey's, it feels like there's no better time to
Speaker 2: do it, and you just yes. And on the show
Speaker 2: we spoke to a caller with an incredible name, Chanel Palace.
Speaker 2: Those two things for like, it's time to start. That's
Speaker 2: so Australian, going to labor at Pokey's, giving your daughter
Speaker 2: the name Chanel Palace.
Speaker 11: You know, it's also very Australian.
Speaker 10: I won one hundred and seventy dollars on the poking
Speaker 10: machines at that club, probably fifteen years later.
Speaker 7: How what are the odds.
Speaker 2: One of the odds, I tell you, what is so
Speaker 2: Australian is just a joy of the meat raffle.
Speaker 1: Oh, oh my god.
Speaker 2: Who doesn't have any anyone on the show won a
Speaker 2: meat raffle. I couldn't even imagine how exciting that must be.
Speaker 1: Till win I have.

Speaker 6: No, no, no.
Speaker 1: By Christmas, hams jockeys.
Speaker 13: Literally were sitting with my cousins, my aunties and all
Speaker 13: that around the tables.
Speaker 1: So the same person that's so Australian inbreed.
Speaker 13: We're at like a little New South Wales coastal town,
Speaker 13: really really small, and we were there for Christmas. We'd
Speaker 13: gone up to the local pub and we're sitting there,
Speaker 13: bought all of our tickets and there were loads of
Speaker 13: people there and.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we love some meat raffles.
Speaker 13: All the locals were giving us death stairs because we

Speaker 2: I mean, say which one are you were that Kate's
Speaker 2: going to go there check it down Taiten's crew.

Speaker 9: something very suspicious going on. It's during the Labor Day holiday.

Speaker 12: Kim was into her teens before she realized this wasn't true.
Speaker 12: Every road with the same name was the same road.
Speaker 9: Oh, it is crazy though, like in some suburbs in Melbourne.
Speaker 9: Actually in Richmond, there's two there's Chapel Street and Fir Street,
Speaker 9: and there's two Chapel Streets that are smaller Chapel Streets
Speaker 9: off Je Streets.
Speaker 12: Yeah, so I believe that it didn't matter where the
Speaker 12: road was. If it had the same name, it somehow
Speaker 12: would join up and it would be the same road.
Speaker 1: Never ending road.
Speaker 7: And you'll get this.

Speaker 3: So my mom she purchased some eggs and I somehow
Speaker 3: heard her drop the word battery, and I thought what
Speaker 3: And I said to my big brother, what's the battery egg?
Speaker 3: And he said, okay, So what it is is they
Speaker 3: get the chruk and they get a piece of wire
Speaker 3: and they hook it up to the chruk's leg and
Speaker 3: in the other end goes to a battery. And when
Speaker 3: they want an egg, they touched the battery and better
Speaker 3: than that, you got an egg. It shocks the chook,
Speaker 3: it drops an egg, and that's a battery. Hen And
Speaker 3: I was like, oh my god, is awful. But the
Speaker 3: worst thing Nutritian. Years and years later, many years later,
Speaker 3: my husband and I bought a milk back and we
Speaker 3: had this lady turn up and she had a vand
Speaker 3: and she had eggs and she's coming and I'm in
Speaker 3: my twenties twenty six. She's coming and she's like, oh,

Speaker 3: And I looked at her, said exactly, And she said, well,
Speaker 3: the battery, eg, how could you how could.
