Speaker 1: point three.
Speaker 3: Who's who calling.
Speaker 8: Christian God one A four point three? Good morning, Christian
Speaker 8: O'Connell badforst Show Thursday morning ten to seven. Already we

Speaker 8: Good morning, who's calling Christian?
Speaker 3: Who's this?
Speaker 7: Gooday, Christian, it's Jack Thompson.
Speaker 8: Well, we are living legend. Before there was Russell Crowe,
Speaker 8: there was you, Jack Thompson. Welcome to the show.
Speaker 7: Good Yeah, I'm good.
Speaker 3: Who's asked you to give us a call? How do
Speaker 3: we owe the pleasure.
Speaker 7: To Mary Phillips there's working at the Deacon University for
Speaker 7: Kidney Health Australia.
Speaker 3: And she's asked you to give us a gool this morning?
Speaker 7: Jack? Yeah. She got in touch with me through my charity,
Speaker 7: the Jack Thompson Foundation, and I received this wonderful email saying,
Speaker 7: you know, we should get in touch with Christian and
Speaker 7: see if we can't have a shot at this. We
Speaker 7: consider get something for Kidney Health Australia and the awareness
Speaker 7: of kidney health, which is pretty much in my domain
Speaker 7: since I've just recently ended up with ens age kidney
Speaker 7: failure and I'm on dialysis. But I've been able in
Speaker 7: my life and I've been able to do the course
Speaker 7: so where you can do the dialysis at home, which
Speaker 7: is pretty fantastic because I live in a beautiful place
Speaker 7: up near Cross Harbor and beautiful Hey. So now I
Speaker 7: go on dialysis when I want to. You know, it's
Speaker 7: three times a week and all of that. But kidney
Speaker 7: failure is not something that I think anybody thinks about.
Speaker 7: But there's what they're interested in. Kidney Health Australia is
Speaker 7: getting people aware that if you're over sixty five and
Speaker 7: you've got diabetes or blood pressure, heart disease or any
Speaker 7: of those things, that.
Speaker 14: You're pretty likely to end up.
Speaker 7: With some sort of kidney failure and you can lose
Speaker 7: eighty percent of your kidney function without even knowing that
Speaker 7: you have.
Speaker 3: So how did you find out? How did you find
Speaker 3: out you had any problems? Jack?
Speaker 7: I thought I was just getting old. Now I thought
Speaker 7: kiars it happens pretty bloody quickly, doesn't it annoyingly?
Speaker 4: It does?
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, I'm not no spring chicken. So I thought, yeah,
Speaker 7: well this is what it's like. I got tired easily,
Speaker 7: pains and the joints, and I thought, no, I bet
Speaker 7: I said a doctor about this. I'll wait until I've
Speaker 7: done that little movie.
Speaker 14: Over insn't Assralia for the students.
Speaker 7: And when did I do something? Oh it's Christmas, now
Speaker 7: it's a new year. I kept putting it off and
Speaker 7: putting my head down. Come on, You're not that sick,
Speaker 7: you know. And then I end up at a doctor
Speaker 7: and he said, oh, I do a scam. Did the scan? Oh,
Speaker 7: nothing there, but he did a lot of blood. When
Speaker 7: they came in, he said, you're straight in hospital now.
Speaker 7: And when I got in there, I was sold by
Speaker 7: the doctor that I had. I was about forty eight
Speaker 7: hours away from dying. And yeah, and what happens with
Speaker 7: kidney failure is you just go to sleep. I can.
Speaker 7: It still makes me shudder to think that I I
Speaker 7: would have my life, would have waken up in the
Speaker 7: morning and I would have been dead alongside We all
Speaker 7: talk about how we want to go in our sleep,
Speaker 7: but that's exactly what happens. And it's insidious because you know,
Speaker 7: just over a long period. Yeah, I'm getting into tire
Speaker 7: bit of but actually I was running on nitrogen and
Speaker 7: urea instead of oxygen and hem agob and it's just
Speaker 7: and once you, once you get the kidney failure, once
Speaker 7: you've become a part of that on dialysis, you discover
Speaker 7: that there's this whole world of people on Yeah.
Speaker 8: You never think about it too, because you're not been
Speaker 8: part of that wor it's never happened to you. You'll
Speaker 8: think you're invincible until something like this happens.
Speaker 7: That's right, that's right. And it's like I said to
Speaker 7: someone them, it's like, you know, you buy a volk
Speaker 7: Sagon and suddenly you look around. There's a whole lot
Speaker 7: of volks Sargons around. You notice them.
Speaker 8: Jack, I'm not sure that Volkswagon are going to use
Speaker 8: this as part of their new marketing campaign.
Speaker 3: It's a bit like having a dialysis machine.
Speaker 7: By Volta, a bit of a.
Speaker 3: I should sign you up now, Jack, Oh.
Speaker 7: Yeah, I'll just take a Volsag.
Speaker 8: And so how are you now with your treatment? You
Speaker 8: say you can do dinasias at home, which is great.
Speaker 8: You've not got to go into a hospital.
Speaker 3: So when are you by? Are you on the machine
Speaker 3: right now speaking to us?
Speaker 8: No?
Speaker 7: No, but I could be. I could be a Look,
Speaker 7: you're on for five hours in three three days a week.
Speaker 8: And what do you do when you're hooked up to it?
Speaker 8: Can you look out over your view over coffs harbor
Speaker 8: or are you reading?
Speaker 7: Don't look look out over trees and occasional kangaroo and
Speaker 7: all of that. But I read, I make phone calls.
Speaker 7: And then after a couple of hours, you start to
Speaker 7: get a bit tired because you lose three kilos in
Speaker 7: wait in five hours, because what's happening. You're doing three sessions,
Speaker 7: so that's fifteen hours a week, and in those fifteen hours,
Speaker 7: the dialysis machine, the artificial kidney is doing the work
Speaker 7: that your kidneys do twenty four to seven, and so
Speaker 7: you lose, you rapidly lose a body fluid during that.
Speaker 3: Gig jacket sounds exhausting, thought to be honest, it sounds.
Speaker 7: Well, it is exhausting. But then I so when I finish,
Speaker 7: I go pretty much straight away to sleep. I'll have
Speaker 7: a cup of soup or something, go to sleep. But
Speaker 7: then the next morning. I'm, as the old blug used
Speaker 7: to say, a box of birds, very chirky.
Speaker 3: I love that. I've never had that phrase in my
Speaker 3: life chat, but I'm going to start using it today.
Speaker 3: Box of birds?
Speaker 7: How are yeah, Christian Boxer? A bird?
Speaker 3: You're back to being the man from Sowey River and
Speaker 3: break from around.
Speaker 8: Oh.
Speaker 7: Yes, it's been a wonderful career, mate, I know.
Speaker 8: I'm just looking now because the wonder the Internet. John,
Speaker 8: looking diving through your IMDb. You've been in some amazing
Speaker 8: TV shows of movie Jack, What a career you've had.
Speaker 7: Yeah, well, if you're around long last mates, fifty years
Speaker 7: of it. Now, I've had a wonderful career. It's been
Speaker 7: very good to me and I loved every minute though.
Speaker 8: Now tell me why I'm looking at a photo movie? Yeah,

Speaker 3: Now am I seeing that?
Speaker 6: I am?
Speaker 3: It's a photo of you. It's in a magazine called Cleo.
Speaker 3: Why were you naked with your kit off?

Speaker 7: six fingers.
Speaker 3: It's an extra little finger, poor Jack.
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's only a little thing.
Speaker 3: Sorry to hear that. Now.
Speaker 8: The way this works Jack, Everyone who calls us up,
Speaker 8: they leave a question for the next person we're lucky
Speaker 8: enough to get a phone call from. And the last
Speaker 8: person we had on towards the end of yesterday's Breakfast
Speaker 8: show was Dr Carl and he left, Yeah, him, he.
Speaker 3: Left this question. Here's the question. Then this is the
Speaker 3: question for you. Okay, have a listen to list Jack?

Speaker 11: Yeah?
Speaker 7: What would I do about climb?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 8: I mean it's a I don't think Doctor Carl realize
Speaker 8: he be asking you. It feels a bit rude to
Speaker 8: ask a man he's on dialysis what he's going to
Speaker 8: go and do it to about climate channel. What a
Speaker 8: great laugh you've got. It's like a Bond Baddie. You
Speaker 8: should be in a new Bond Baddie movie.
Speaker 7: I haven't got a very love yourself, it's not listen.
Speaker 8: To this, it's amazing. So, yeah, what would you do,
Speaker 8: Jack Thompson and about climate change? What do you think
Speaker 8: you should do?
Speaker 7: Jack? Well, we should stop smoking for a start. I'm
Speaker 7: not smoking. I haven't smoked since I was fifty, so
Speaker 7: that's nearly thirty years ago. Yeah, I think we should
Speaker 7: all be aware that it's a reality. The glaciers that
Speaker 7: have never melted before or melting.
Speaker 11: When I was in the.
Speaker 7: South Island of New Zealand a couple of years ago,
Speaker 7: people go and visit the glaciers there and there's a
Speaker 7: walkway that goes out and you can step off the
Speaker 7: end of the walkway onto the glacier. Can't do that anymore.
Speaker 7: There's a huge chasm between the end of the walkway
Speaker 7: and the glacier.
Speaker 3: So changed happening.
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, So when people say, oh, it's a debatable thing,
Speaker 7: come and take a look, mate, how debatable is that it's?
Speaker 7: And I mean I would do anything like that and
Speaker 7: to alleviate it. I don't think the single individual can
Speaker 7: do what's required for the whole planet. But I think
Speaker 7: we can all contribute and do as much as we can.
Speaker 7: Good answer, Jack, and be aware and be aware. Teach
Speaker 7: our children because they're the ones that are going to
Speaker 7: inherit all this when we are gone. It's this now, Chack.
Speaker 8: We need a question, good answer. We need a question
Speaker 8: from you, Jack for the next celebrity that gives us
Speaker 8: a call today or tomorrow.
Speaker 6: Ah.
Speaker 7: Okay, So you've got a magic wand what would you
Speaker 7: do with the magic wand for yourself?
Speaker 3: What would you do, Jack, what would you do with
Speaker 3: the magic one for yourself?
Speaker 7: I'd fix the kidney's mate.
Speaker 3: And then get that Volkswagon.
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's right, and the volkswagon. Thanks mate.
Speaker 15: If we keep mentioning it isn't call a poductment.
Speaker 7: The wholes I shape, all right? Yeah. And then the
Speaker 7: charity that I represent, the Jack Thompson Foundation, what we
Speaker 7: do is we've been going for fourteen years. We teach
Speaker 7: indigenous people in the remote communities up in the north
Speaker 7: of the territory, up in arnam Land, teach them how
Speaker 7: to make their own houses out of the wood that's
Speaker 7: available to them. With the Lucas mill. They go out
Speaker 7: and they cut the tree down, they mill the wood,
Speaker 7: and we've taught them how to make the houses themselves
Speaker 7: so that when it needs repair, they know how to
Speaker 7: repair it and they can hand those skills on. We've
Speaker 7: been doing that for about fourteen years now, and you know,
Speaker 7: it's a wonderful thing. As they say, you teach a
Speaker 7: man to to how to fear and you'll feed himself.
Speaker 7: And it all started talking about the needs for housing
Speaker 7: and the guy who's now to see the foundation at
Speaker 7: a background in timber cutting, and he said, yeah, I
Speaker 7: look around here, I see timber. There's a lot of
Speaker 7: this go and swinging bark and it's good timber. They
Speaker 7: could build with this. But what we need to do
Speaker 7: is get them to learn how to use a Lucas.
Speaker 7: So long story short, that's what we did. We got
Speaker 7: a group of young women to come in and good
Speaker 7: for you, Jack, they established their own milk. That's a
Speaker 7: nice building mate.
Speaker 9: Yeah.
Speaker 8: Well, listen, Jack, it has been a real pleasure. I

Speaker 14: to buy specialist equipment for children in children's hospitals in
Speaker 14: the West of England, sort of specialist stuff.
Speaker 3: In the in the severe cases with Ah, well, that's

Speaker 3: What have you got? What can we see you in next?
Speaker 8: Obviously you done the I haven't seen you for a
Speaker 8: couple of years, so I've got to say the Mission
Speaker 8: Impossible movie though I think there was out last year.
Speaker 8: Was it falled out? I thought that was the Yeah,
Speaker 8: the best one out of all of them. The Women great,
Speaker 8: that was a I thought that was a brilliant one.
Speaker 8: That's what what have you got coming out? I read
Speaker 8: earlier this week. I'm pretty sure that you and Frosty
Speaker 8: Nick Froster are back together. You're doing something visit for
Speaker 8: Amazon Prime.
Speaker 14: Yeah, well, we're writing something right now. We go into
Speaker 14: production with it a couple of weeks. A sort of
Speaker 14: paranormal comedy brilliant which, yeah, should be fun. And at
Speaker 14: the moment, I say The Boys, which is on Amazon
Speaker 14: as well, which is a sort of satirical superhero show
Speaker 14: Not for the faint hearted. It's extremely extreme, but very funny,
Speaker 14: based on a comic book, and.
Speaker 8: That its official rating. By the way, Simon, it wasn't
Speaker 8: sure that that was an ex No, the not for
Speaker 8: the faint hearted.
Speaker 14: Not for the faint heart, that's what it says, just
Speaker 14: a book. It's absolutely staggering what they what they are
Speaker 14: allowed to do in that show. But it's so it's
Speaker 14: really funny, and yeah, it's it's The funny thing was
Speaker 14: it was? It was based on a comic book that
Speaker 14: came out in two thousand and eight. One of the
Speaker 14: characters in it, called Hue, was based on me. In
Speaker 14: the comic book, he was sort of drawn out, and
Speaker 14: it took so long for them to get around to
Speaker 14: turning it into a TV show that I'm actually playing
Speaker 14: that character's father.
Speaker 3: That's a moment, isn't it? How humbling.
Speaker 7: Exactly?
Speaker 14: And then The Dark Crystal's coming up on Netflix in August,
Speaker 14: which is going to be very soon. Actually that's yeah,
Speaker 14: it must be an.
Speaker 3: I saw a trailer for it just the other day.
Speaker 3: I think it's I think it's the end of next week.
Speaker 7: Is that?
Speaker 3: I can't wait to see that?
Speaker 7: Yeah?
Speaker 3: You happy with it? Is it good?
Speaker 7: Oh?
Speaker 14: It's extraordinary. It's kind of it's amazing because they've done
Speaker 14: it exactly in the way that Jim Henson their Divisional movie.
Speaker 14: So it's just so it's so rare to see puppetry
Speaker 14: as an art form like that. It is absolutely spectacular.
Speaker 14: So I'm very proud to be part of that.
Speaker 8: And then how is that is that challenging as an
Speaker 8: actor for you? To to do your stuff when you
Speaker 8: you obviously got those things around you.
Speaker 14: Is at hard, well, you kind of it. It's different
Speaker 14: to when you do animation. You do a voice, You
Speaker 14: do your voice, and then the animators animate to your voice,
Speaker 14: whereas with puppetry, the properteers do the acting and then
Speaker 14: you come later on and you sort of dub over
Speaker 14: their performance. So whatever they do with their mad flats,
Speaker 14: you know, with the with the that's what we call it.
Speaker 7: The technical.
Speaker 3: So the act originally their mouth flaps perverse, No.
Speaker 14: He had, he had three flaps there. You've got to
Speaker 14: you've got to change your intonation. So it's strange because
Speaker 14: you have to kind of follow choices that the puppeteers make.
Speaker 14: But they're all really good actors, so you just sort
Speaker 14: of follow their movements and their their sort of you know,
Speaker 14: gestures and fill in the gap. So it was difficult,
Speaker 14: but it was amazing because it was a character that
Speaker 14: I loved when I was a kid, with sort of
Speaker 14: horrible simpering sketchist, the sort of vulture looking like creature.
Speaker 14: And I remember coming out of the cinema when I
Speaker 14: was a kid and sort of doing an impression of him.
Speaker 14: So to wind up doing his voices is rather marvelous.
Speaker 3: Oh that's great.
Speaker 7: Now.
Speaker 8: The way this works, Beggie, is that every person that
Speaker 8: we're lucky enough to get a call from leaves a message.
Speaker 8: About twenty minutes ago, there was a very famous, well known,
Speaker 8: living legend, Australian actor, Jack Thompson.
Speaker 3: He left this question for the rist person. Here's yours.
Speaker 7: You rather a magic one? What would you do with
Speaker 7: the magic one? For yourself?
Speaker 3: Well, great voice, isn't he?
Speaker 8: What would you do with if you had a magic
Speaker 8: wand for yourself? Simon Peg, I think I'd probably.
Speaker 14: Go back to the nineteen eighty six hairline.
Speaker 15: For a couple of.
Speaker 3: See in c G I yourself, Yeah.
Speaker 14: I would. I would literally v affects my hair back.
Speaker 3: What's a question from you to whoever we get on next?
Speaker 14: Okay, if you weren't doing what you're doing.
Speaker 7: What would you be doing?
Speaker 3: All right? Okay? And what would you be doing? Then?
Speaker 3: If you if you had become the great act you are,
Speaker 3: what you would you have done? Simon?
Speaker 14: I think I'd probably be in special effects. Actually, I've
Speaker 14: always kind of loved all that sort of you know,
Speaker 14: the practical effects, the masks and the puppets and the
Speaker 14: and the makeup.
Speaker 7: And that kind of thing.
Speaker 14: I think I would be probably still in the film industry,
Speaker 14: but just behind the scenes.
Speaker 8: Ah okay, and listen if you ever down this necker
Speaker 8: to which if you ever in Melbourne or Australia doing
Speaker 8: the rounds, please I'd love to see you again. Might
Speaker 8: be really nice. But thanksgiving us a call today. Lovely

Speaker 1: The Christian O'Connell Breakfast Show Melbourne's Gold one oh four
Speaker 1: point three.
Speaker 8: So that was Tony Hadley from the eighties and Spandau
Speaker 8: Ballet no longer Spanda.
Speaker 3: I don't know what's going on there. I was just turning.
Speaker 8: When we hosted the Olympics London, it was obviously a
Speaker 8: big thing for London, London twenty twelve and it was
Speaker 8: a really exciting time in London. Obviously, Team GB we're
Speaker 8: not very used to winning gold medals. Australian you are,
Speaker 8: you know, you're used to doing very very well, and
Speaker 8: we start to pick up quite a few.
Speaker 9: What would you get on average, like five double figure.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 8: In the eighties we had Steve, we had Cram and
Speaker 8: overt you know we had some Danny Thompson and Decathley.
Speaker 8: It was a gold medalist.
Speaker 9: We had never heard any of those names.
Speaker 3: Well, we had some legends of the Olympics.
Speaker 9: How Steve the legend of the Olympics.
Speaker 8: In fact, the last couple of Olympics. I don't believe
Speaker 8: Australia has done as well. To continue with the story,
Speaker 8: so yeah, sudden we started to do really well and
Speaker 8: I said on Boss, you know what, I want to
Speaker 8: do a thing where if we get over a certain
Speaker 8: number of gold medals that we play Tony Song Gold
Speaker 8: by Spandau Ballet right, and he's I said, at the
Speaker 8: end of the Olympics, I want to play it for
Speaker 8: every gold medal we'd won, and at that time we'd
Speaker 8: only won five. So I mean, sure, one show, I'll
Speaker 8: play one, play it and dedicate it to one of
Speaker 8: the gold medalists.
Speaker 3: My boss said, you can only do that if we
Speaker 3: get fifteen. He was obviously giving me a target that
Speaker 3: wouldn't better hit anyway.
Speaker 8: We obviously started to get gold medal after go and
Speaker 8: I don't know if you remember how many gold medals
Speaker 8: TEMGB went on to get twenty eight. I went back
Speaker 8: to the Boss when he got to twenty and went, hey, listen,
Speaker 8: let's just forget about this. I'm gonna stop talking about
Speaker 8: it now. He was like, oh, no, you wanted this
Speaker 8: the day after Olympic ends. You're gonna stay down there
Speaker 8: and play that and only that song throughout the whole show.
Speaker 8: I had to play in full spanned our Ballet's Gold
Speaker 8: twenty eight times. I started at six o'clock and Jack
Speaker 8: and Bats we did the normal show, and then every
Speaker 8: song we went to was only that.
Speaker 3: I was on until eleven thirty in the morning to get.
Speaker 8: Through twenty eight blades of it, and we cat trying
Speaker 8: to find creative ways to get through it. So David
Speaker 8: Tennant came in and did this amazing sort of actively
Speaker 8: spoken word version. Tony came in and did a duet
Speaker 8: with me. We had an opera singing come in. But
Speaker 8: you're still hearing those flipping lyrics over and over again.
Speaker 8: So hearing Tony on again was flashbacks to the spandeth
Speaker 8: On and playing that song twenty eight times.
Speaker 3: I was just telling Jack, my wife has a book club.
Speaker 8: Every month, like your wife Bianca does, and you know
Speaker 8: they have to take it in turns to host.
Speaker 3: It has it been hosted around at yours.
Speaker 9: Yet Bianchor is the leader of her book club, so
Speaker 9: she's always hosting. She doesn't share it, no, but they go,
Speaker 9: they go out, they go to it, they go to
Speaker 9: a pub and they go to a special room.
Speaker 8: Now, these are on the ladies that go around each
Speaker 8: other's houses and stuff like this, And normally it's during
Speaker 8: the week, but obviously with my hours and I have
Speaker 8: they have a quiet household during the week to preserve
Speaker 8: my sleep.
Speaker 3: She's having it this Friday night.
Speaker 8: And so I really got in trouble yesterday because I
Speaker 8: saw there was a load of fresh cheese in the
Speaker 8: fridge and I opened up two different packets, and my
Speaker 8: wife went berserk because apparently that is for the ladies
Speaker 8: book club, the book club ladies. And then my wife said, listen,
Speaker 8: what are you doing Friday night? And I've been told
Speaker 8: to leave the house. She doesn't want me around. I
Speaker 8: am actually banished from my own house Friday, left to
Speaker 8: just walk the reats until I'm allowed to come home
Speaker 8: in my own house.
Speaker 3: Has any of them would any of the man put
Speaker 3: up with this and being told to leave the house.
Speaker 8: I've managed to find a stand up gig to do
Speaker 8: it the comics land, so I'll kick that will kill
Speaker 8: twenty five minutes doing a set there, and.
Speaker 3: Then I don't want it's going to hang around.
Speaker 9: The CBD scrunch to the back door like the dog.
Speaker 8: The police need any sort of you know, undercover duties
Speaker 8: being done, and I think I can actually become a
Speaker 8: citizen for the night. So if any of you do
Speaker 8: need a friend on Friday night, I am around in
Speaker 8: the town and have got time to kill the.
Speaker 1: Christian Oho' Connwell Breakfast Show Melbourne's Gold one oh four point.
Speaker 8: Three Thursday morning, in the midst of the penultimate day
Speaker 8: on Who's Calling Christian, We've still got to find time
Speaker 8: for this. Just as important as a brand new isolated vocal.
Speaker 8: This one's a great one, so read up Chili Pepper's
Speaker 8: lead singer, Anthony Keidas, and Anthony Keidas doesn't have your
Speaker 8: kind of typical, clear, classic sort of rock and roll
Speaker 8: singer's voice. He's got a very unusual voice. And you
Speaker 8: wonder if someone at that one and onto a stage
Speaker 8: one of these talent shows, whether he even gets selected.
Speaker 3: But it's unique.
Speaker 8: Like Mick Chaggers as well, there's something totally different about
Speaker 8: it very special about it, and this isolated vocal is
Speaker 8: just him doing under the Bridge. Even the story about
Speaker 8: how this came to be. They're recording their fifth album,
Speaker 8: Blood Sugar Sex Magic. They were an underground LA band
Speaker 8: that weren't really troubling the top ten or in the
Speaker 8: top twenty, and then they started working with a legendary
Speaker 8: music producer called Rick Ruben who worked with Public Enemy,
Speaker 8: Beastie Boys, Aerosmith and was great. They'd taking artists and
Speaker 8: pushing them into other areas. He's the guy who did
Speaker 8: the Johnny Cash last three albums. And if you've ever
Speaker 8: heard that amazing cover version of nine inch Nawl's Hurt
Speaker 8: and it makes it a completely different song, is not
Speaker 8: the same song. That was Rick Ruben's idea, and he
Speaker 8: produced that that stripped back sound anyway. Anthony Keidis didn't
Speaker 8: like the lyrics to this song under the Bridge. It
Speaker 8: was just some doodlings and a notepad until he was
Speaker 8: urged by Rick Rubens, who actually record them, and it
Speaker 8: went on to become the hugest selling single of the
Speaker 8: year and it pushed them from being an underground band
Speaker 8: into the mainstream. It was the album that made and
Speaker 8: that again with the kind of fornication. But I haven't
Speaker 8: listened to this, I said, vocal, very different one.
Speaker 3: But I love this.
Speaker 16: I drive on the streets cause she's my companion. I
Speaker 16: walk through his because she knows who I am. She
Speaker 16: sees my good deeds and she kisses me. Wendy line
Speaker 16: of a world. Now that is a line.
Speaker 3: I don't have a water feed.
Speaker 4: Like God?
Speaker 3: Did that depth or takement to the Pleasa load? Take
Speaker 3: me all the way? I don't have a water feed
Speaker 3: like God?
Speaker 9: Did that depth takement to the Pleasa love?
Speaker 3: Take me all the way?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 8: Yeah, that's the sweet's isolated vocal. Anthony Keidah was the
Speaker 8: guy doing the vocals. Jack and I were just saying,
Speaker 8: you know, how you know you mentioned it, how you
Speaker 8: probably wouldn't get very far these days.
Speaker 3: You do not think with a voice like.
Speaker 9: That, well, especially listening to without the music. It's not
Speaker 9: a perfect vocal. No, and he's he's not on pitch
Speaker 9: all the time.
Speaker 3: No, he's not.
Speaker 8: He's not your classical great he's not a Freddie Mercury
Speaker 8: or athing like that.
Speaker 3: But doesn't matter.
Speaker 8: There's something human about it and the and the frail
Speaker 8: to you in it. The fact it's not what you
Speaker 8: would call perfect. Whatever that means makes it even rawer
Speaker 8: and more special when rock and roll has lots of
Speaker 8: voices like that and needs them. That's what rock and
Speaker 8: roll is, isn't it. It's a place for outfits, people
Speaker 8: that haven't got the perfect look or the perfect voice.
Speaker 8: It's about them expressing it in their own way.
Speaker 3: It's there.
Speaker 8: It's their thumb print, isn't it a fingerprint? His is
Speaker 8: completely different, But I love that. I'm a massive Chili
Speaker 8: Peppers fan. He's bizarrely right, quite a quiet guy these days.
Speaker 8: Anthony Keida's he's obviously very clean, sober last style and
Speaker 8: he was headed towards death. But I was sat next
Speaker 8: to once Ring. So it's a massive UFC event, wow right,
Speaker 8: And I thought, And I was with a mate, the
Speaker 8: matekt knows me going. You got to say you're a
Speaker 8: big fan, and just like anybody else, would you still
Speaker 8: get stars trying?
Speaker 3: How's going in the old massive fan?
Speaker 8: You know, I saw you in ninety five and along
Speaker 8: with Nirvana at Reading Festival.
Speaker 3: Because then he's just going to go thank.
Speaker 8: You, and then he just sat there awkwardly and he's
Speaker 8: going to think, oh, Criiking sat with some wide eyed
Speaker 8: super fan. So anyway, in the end, I said, I said,
Speaker 8: when you go to the toilet, I'm going to say
Speaker 8: something like.
Speaker 3: What he goes, Why do I have to go to
Speaker 3: the toilet? If you just start a conversation, you do
Speaker 3: this for a living. He's not asking for an interview,
Speaker 3: he's just he's just here. He's by himself as well.
Speaker 3: He doesn't it they want to talk to anyone.
Speaker 8: When we went to the toilet, even though didn't need
Speaker 8: to go on with just going, I'm going to say something.
Speaker 8: So in the end I started chatting to him and
Speaker 8: the conversation went cold, very dead, and then my phone
Speaker 8: went thank god, as one of my kids text me
Speaker 8: about some nonsense. And it was then when I my
Speaker 8: puppy on the screens save on my phone is where
Speaker 8: niche and my shepherd dog was a lot small obviously
Speaker 8: a puppy, that's what they are. And then old Matie,
Speaker 8: he couldn't get enough for chatting to me, lean's over
Speaker 8: and goes, what a beautiful dog and starts chatting about
Speaker 8: then gets out a lot of photos of his dogs.
Speaker 3: Ah, and that was the end of the conversation.
Speaker 8: I didn't see him looking happy that time about massive
Speaker 8: you fan WILLI into the fights.
Speaker 9: But yeah, huge UFC and puppies.
Speaker 8: He gets his rocks off these days now, talk about kids.
Speaker 8: I want to try this this morning. I know we
Speaker 8: have a lot of people listening right now on the
Speaker 8: school run. And I know this because I get a
Speaker 8: lot of emails, especially when I see them around the
Speaker 8: suggested lyrics for Monday mornings misheard. And I love that
Speaker 8: fact that a lot of you right now and talking
Speaker 8: to you kids, not the mum and dad's driving the cars.
Speaker 8: I'm talking to you the kids in the cars you're
Speaker 8: on your way to school. I'm getting already. There might
Speaker 8: have been an argument. Something is annoying you, something is
Speaker 8: bothering you in your world, and normally us on the radio,
Speaker 8: we don't normally ask you to call it.
Speaker 3: So I just tell us simply, what is bugging you?
Speaker 3: What is annoying you?

Speaker 8: happened in my house yesterday. Luckily it wasn't there. One

Speaker 8: from physically having a kerfuffle. Shall we say about a
Speaker 8: pair of headphones, But in their little world, that is everything,
Speaker 8: those headphones. You need the headphones to walk to school.
Speaker 8: Apparently you can't walk to school. You haven't got my headphones?
Speaker 8: And guess who is playing for taking them?
Speaker 10: Me?
Speaker 3: And guess who had taken them. They can't hear this,
Speaker 3: But anyway, if.
Speaker 8: I'd have asked them to call and what was bugging them,
Speaker 8: they would have said, she's got my headphones. We think
Speaker 8: you've got the headphones. Why do you keep taking our headphones?
Speaker 8: You're too tired to look for your headphones. Kids, If
Speaker 8: you're in the car right now, or you might be
Speaker 8: just outside school, you might be walking to school listening

Speaker 1: The Christian O'Connell breakfast Show. Melbourne's Gold one oh four point.
Speaker 8: Three spanned our buddy Gold one O four point three
Speaker 8: Gold one oh four point three, So see why we
Speaker 8: played it, it says the radio station.
Speaker 3: Ideally, every song should have a proper ending like that.
Speaker 9: No more fade outs. You don't think I don't like
Speaker 9: fade out. I don't love a fade out either.
Speaker 8: No bang, that's how you should do it. You know,
Speaker 8: you build to the end of it, and then someone
Speaker 8: does that. I don't know what the instrumental druma or something,
Speaker 8: but it ends like that full stop. I don't like
Speaker 8: it where it is, and then some does you think
Speaker 8: it's ending that can't stand it.
Speaker 9: It's a mic drop, whereas a fade out is just
Speaker 9: like slowly walking behind the curtain.
Speaker 7: Exactly what it is.
Speaker 3: God one O four point three.
Speaker 8: The reason we're playing that is because Tony called us
Speaker 8: a lead singer and formally lead singer. I spanned out,
Speaker 8: Buddy as he was telling they still have they've had
Speaker 8: a lot of legal battles in at the courts, but
Speaker 8: we're still occasionally do a show together and they go
Speaker 8: back in the courtroom, have a horrible court battle, then
Speaker 8: do an occasional show together. And as Tony said an
Speaker 8: hour ago, they did a show with Tony did something
Speaker 8: terrible to Tony and now they're not singing together. As
Speaker 8: spanded out ballet. But the goodness just Tony is coming
Speaker 8: out in February. And known Tony for quite a few years.
Speaker 8: He's a lovely guy who was great this morning. There's
Speaker 8: been so much love for Tony Handley. I didn't know
Speaker 8: how many of you still obviously knew what he was
Speaker 8: up to and obviously did you have a crush on him.
Speaker 8: In the eighties it was Alther him or Simon Lemon.
Speaker 3: Oh, both of them, to be honest, all right, and
Speaker 3: there was other girls who likes both.
Speaker 8: And he has agreed, like Rick Astley, when Rick comes
Speaker 8: over here to come on on the show and sing
Speaker 8: a classic TV theme tune, we need to work out
Speaker 8: what one we want to get Tony with those big
Speaker 8: pints of it is to do as well.
Speaker 9: Did anyone find out what song he was singing when
Speaker 9: he started? When he went straight into a TV.
Speaker 8: Thing, you got to get a grab of it, because
Speaker 8: I'm obsessed with TV theme tunes. I don't know what
Speaker 8: the one was that he was talking about someone. I
Speaker 8: bet we'll know who's listening, right. We were just saying
Speaker 8: earlier how he wanted to chat some kids this morning
Speaker 8: find out in their world is bugging them and Lily
Speaker 8: Ane's held on this morning, Lily Ankboarding, good morning, So
Speaker 8: have I major lake for school?
Speaker 3: Are you outside the school gates?
Speaker 18: No, we're just still in the car.
Speaker 3: Still in the car, all right, all right, that's good,
Speaker 3: thank you very much? Holding on? What is bugging you?
Speaker 3: What's annoying you?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 18: My mom, aren't wanting those shorts for school?
Speaker 8: You can't wear shorts of school. Look at the weather
Speaker 8: out there. It's chili, it's not it is as cold
Speaker 8: you know. No, No, you should be in your winter
Speaker 8: uniform at the moment, aren't.
Speaker 3: You're the longer skirt?
Speaker 10: Yeah?
Speaker 8: And then my checking, No, you can't be wearing shorts. Now,
Speaker 8: I'm with your mum on this one. You can't be
Speaker 8: wearing shorts.
Speaker 10: Okay, yeah, it's going to be sixteen.
Speaker 8: Or over in your face me, now, isn't it? This
Speaker 8: sounds like I'm having an argue with one of my kids.
Speaker 8: It might be sixteen, but the school won't like it.
Speaker 8: You're getting in trouble. You don't want that kind of heat.
Speaker 3: Yeah, now it's only thirteen today, So had the right idea, Thanks, Patsy.
Speaker 8: You need to say to tell them on quite a
Speaker 8: weak parent, Patsy straight and just ending it with the
Speaker 8: smack down there.
Speaker 9: It reminds me of when my dad would dress me
Speaker 9: to go to school and he would send us in
Speaker 9: shorts and t shirt in in the middle of winter,
Speaker 9: and I would sometimes I get there and the teachers
Speaker 9: would send me the lost property to go put on.
Speaker 3: You were that kid. Oh they had to go and
Speaker 3: borrow last polity.
Speaker 8: I get everything. Now, I'm sorry for what you suffered. Okay,
Speaker 8: it is not my fault, all right, yes, sorry, but now.
Speaker 17: I can't do that anymore.
Speaker 3: I can't do what anymore.
Speaker 18: I used to hide them under my Traxi.

Speaker 15: They love me to go away above it and they're
Speaker 15: just kind of getting into lesson mode and all that
Speaker 15: sort of stuff. I'd tried to teach both of them,
Speaker 15: but they completely ignored any advice. I had to go
Speaker 15: to professionals who actually knew what they were talking about.
Speaker 15: But you know, it's a pretty interesting process watching kids,
Speaker 15: just the way they developed, the way, the kind of
Speaker 15: natural abilities they have, and the things that they're naturally
Speaker 15: good at and the things that they struggle with.
Speaker 3: And who has asked you to give us a call? Bernard?
Speaker 15: I'm a friend Lara.
Speaker 14: Meanwhile, who lives down there in I look next door

Speaker 3: the fence of good Bernard.
Speaker 9: Stop the kids playing.
Speaker 14: Drums in a digital manner?
Speaker 7: She did it.
Speaker 3: Yes, that's the way the world is.
Speaker 8: Is that how you now asked for someone about the
Speaker 8: neighbor to borrow a cup of sugar? You you instagram
Speaker 8: the message or dmm or something.
Speaker 15: Yeah, pretty much. I think that's how it works, even
Speaker 15: though I know, I mean, we try to make it
Speaker 15: the old to the way we make our children do
Speaker 15: our bdding, so say that we don't have to look
Speaker 15: like we're you know, herest responsible parents. We did actually
Speaker 15: borrow tomatours and then maybe on Saturday night because you're.
Speaker 7: Running way.
Speaker 3: Well and you said you send your kids to go.
Speaker 5: And do that.
Speaker 15: Oh god, yeah, I'm not going to do that. There's
Speaker 15: I'm not humiliating myself in front of the Navy.
Speaker 8: Are you worried that they're going to close the door
Speaker 8: and go what has happened to Bernie can't even afford
Speaker 8: ketch up. If only reunite with powder Finger, then you
Speaker 8: could be.
Speaker 3: It could afford ketch up.
Speaker 14: Look, there's no doubt that if there was a we
Speaker 14: would have a bark.
Speaker 3: Yeah, and Bernard, just do a charity that you're supporting
Speaker 3: as well.
Speaker 15: Mate, Yeah, the Asylum Seky's Resource Center in Melbourne. They
Speaker 15: do great work looking after people who are very vulnerable,
Speaker 15: run run from harm and they they are a very
Speaker 15: undervalued charity in this country.
Speaker 14: So yeah, I'd love to love to put the money
Speaker 14: towards those guys.
Speaker 8: You're right, it's one of those causes asylum seecause people
Speaker 8: just sometimes to see them as a problem. They don't
Speaker 8: really understand that they've escaped danger and death and what
Speaker 8: you would do in that situation. They're people, Well they're
Speaker 8: not just a situation.
Speaker 15: Well, they're given a lot of people are given and
Speaker 15: choose to read information that's just simplely not true. Yeah.
Speaker 15: I mean I think you just have to really look
Speaker 15: at it in the most obvious and practical way, which
Speaker 15: is that people lives are in danger, and they're trying
Speaker 15: to perfect themselves and their families and places. The Resource
Speaker 15: Center are trying to help them adjust to life in
Speaker 15: a completely different country, culture and way of living. You know,
Speaker 15: they're they're trying to do what all of us, the
Speaker 15: kids are doing, which is make their lives as stable
Speaker 15: and happy as possible.
Speaker 3: Nicely said mate. And what does the rest of today
Speaker 3: Thursday look like for you? What are you up to?

Speaker 15: No, I've no need Kelly.
Speaker 8: All right now, listen, Bernard. It's lovely that you give
Speaker 8: us a call this morning. And the way this works
Speaker 8: that everyone who calls him they leave a question for
Speaker 8: the next person whoever we look call from. And your
Speaker 8: last one was I don't know if in the ats
Speaker 8: you remember spanned out ballet or they're a bit before
Speaker 8: your time.
Speaker 15: No, I don't see you last week that was design, right.
Speaker 8: Okay, So Tony Hadley from Spandale Ballet gave us a
Speaker 8: call about two hours ago from London and he left
Speaker 8: this question, which is now for you you go.
Speaker 3: He didn't leave that one. Sorry, that's one of his
Speaker 3: great lyrics.
Speaker 6: If you had the chance to go on the first
Speaker 6: spaceship to Mars, would you.
Speaker 15: What kind of language am I allowed to use on
Speaker 15: this show? Has to be gray, doesn't it.
Speaker 8: Yeah, that'd be nice if he could, Bonnet. Yeah, or
Speaker 8: the charity money will go to paying fines. Yeah, No,
Speaker 8: all right, fair enough, because you can't come back with
Speaker 8: that ship. They haven't worked out how to get you back.
Speaker 8: What's that you can't there's no one worked out how
Speaker 8: to get you back from Mars. There's a one way
Speaker 8: trip as well.
Speaker 15: That's exactly right. I've seen the Martian. I don't need
Speaker 15: to get involved in that on a real level. I
Speaker 15: can just go with the hollow exam and we need.
Speaker 3: A question from you, Bonett for whoever we get possibly
Speaker 3: tomorrow now on the last day of this.
Speaker 15: Okay, My question is will Steve Smith have time before
Speaker 15: the third test to we're just wearing a neck guard
Speaker 15: on his helmet.
Speaker 9: I hope we get an international started to answer that
Speaker 9: someone from a America has never heard of.
Speaker 8: We've got to explain cricket, explain Steve Smith, the knick
Speaker 8: injury from Joffra. He made it very hard for me
Speaker 8: on purpose, just because I asked if powder Finger are
Speaker 8: going to reunite. I hope you can't afford any more
Speaker 8: ketch up up there, barring boy Bonnet, and I hope
Speaker 8: you have a terrible rounded golf now, and I hope
Speaker 8: you lose the next test, which starts tonight as well.
Speaker 14: Right back at you.
Speaker 3: When this has ended. Nice now, Bernard, I'm gonna if
Speaker 3: you don't mind, I'm going to stick on There's one
Speaker 3: song I absolutely love.
Speaker 8: It became like an anthem when we all moved out
Speaker 8: here last year, my happiness, powder Finger.
Speaker 3: I'm going to stick it on. Now. Do you get
Speaker 3: some money for this? Can you afford some ketchup? If
Speaker 3: I stick this on now?
Speaker 14: Do you still get I think I might be able
Speaker 14: to get yes, hundreds of a bottle?

Speaker 8: Poor Tony, upset by the other members of spandaut Bunny,
Speaker 8: did something that he couldn't even tell me on air.
Speaker 8: That was that was unspeakable, and now Powderfinger clearly I'm
