Speaker 7: what are yours. It's a trap as well. My wife
Speaker 7: said to me, what is it you're really looking forward
Speaker 7: to today? I said, well, the D's game. That's a
Speaker 7: half three. So I said, up until then, I'm all yours.
Speaker 7: And she went, well, you know all year you've putting.
Speaker 3: Off went oh oh god, no, not cleaning the garage
Speaker 3: door and then the fence. It's been kated in like
Speaker 3: bird crap all year round, and and they just dump
Speaker 3: on our garden fence right and the garage door.
Speaker 2: She said, can you clean that? Right?
Speaker 3: I knew that that stuff is like kated in, it's
Speaker 3: been there all year round, right.
Speaker 6: Pressure washer? Would that help?
Speaker 2: We have got one of those. I were too lazy
Speaker 2: to do that, so I went to Walworths and I looked.
Speaker 3: For something that you could just spray that would melt
Speaker 3: it somehow using signs. So I saw something called super Clean,
Speaker 3: and all I saw were the words hospital grade disinfecting,
Speaker 3: and I thought, listen, you don't see bird shit on
Speaker 3: an operating table.
Speaker 2: You shouldn't.
Speaker 3: Okay, doctor, I'll take this. That's my prescription. Spraying this stuff.
Speaker 8: Right.
Speaker 3: My eyes are watering because I don't think at the time,
Speaker 3: must be watering because it's got bleaching it.
Speaker 2: I leave.
Speaker 3: I think, I just leave this. It's coated in it right,
Speaker 3: it's coated and it's like foamy. It's just everywhere. My
Speaker 3: wife is in the kitchen and as I go and
Speaker 3: make a cup of te she goes, what a terrible
Speaker 3: smell of bleach?
Speaker 2: What is that smell of bleach? And I don't really
Speaker 2: smell it, but know when you're doing thinking, bloody hell.
Speaker 3: I've been on there about half an hourady probably stripping.
Speaker 3: She goes, Chris, tell me that thing's not got bleach.
Speaker 3: I went, is this called super clean? It just it's
Speaker 3: hospital It's just like a pro We shouldn't even really
Speaker 3: have it.
Speaker 2: She grabs it. It saysn't block capitals. This bleach. She goes,
Speaker 2: You're gonna have.
Speaker 3: To get loads of water now and rinsel. It took
Speaker 3: off a lot. We're gonna have to I'm gonna have
Speaker 3: to get quotes. I think that the garage still gonna
Speaker 3: have to be repainted. It looks horribly. It just looks
Speaker 3: mottled and bits of it. Even this morning in the dark,
Speaker 3: I could see that stains and residue. But I made
Speaker 3: it actually worse. It looked better with bird.
Speaker 6: Poop on there. The birdpoo's gone.
Speaker 3: Oh, the bird poop has been melted off hospital grade.
Speaker 2: Christian Connall's show. It's the Christian Connalls Show.
Speaker 3: So with me accidentally using a cleaning spray that was
Speaker 3: heavily bleach based when I was trying to clean a
Speaker 3: garage door, get all the bird poop that have been
Speaker 3: encrusted on there throughout the year. We want to know
Speaker 3: when you've tried to make something better and actually what
Speaker 3: you've done if you've made it worse. So if you've
Speaker 3: made something worse, you had good intentions. I did yesterday
Speaker 3: thought I'll clean this all that, but I've actually made
Speaker 3: it worse.
Speaker 2: I think you very much met.
Speaker 3: By the way, it's a paintery so that walks around
Speaker 3: the base, I there is happy to come around and
Speaker 3: have a look at it.
Speaker 2: I may be giving you a call after the show today.
Speaker 3: I love the fact that mix that he's been listening
Speaker 3: to the show since day two was smart. A lot
Speaker 3: of these kind of Johnny come laters go doing this
Speaker 3: is day one mix or smart one, like I'll give
Speaker 3: you that one a miss.
Speaker 2: Day nine is when the smart people really got into them.
Speaker 6: It's more believable. I don't always believe the people who
Speaker 6: say the n thing since day one.
Speaker 2: No, so whenever you made it worse, I made it worse.
Speaker 3: The other thing I also would like some store on
Speaker 3: if we ever gain any right is earlier this year,
Speaker 3: I was using the pressure washer right to clean the
Speaker 3: path and there was a gardener working across the road.
Speaker 3: It came over and after chatted him, his lovely guy,
Speaker 3: and he said, hey, make sure you're using a hard shoe.
Speaker 2: Will do you use that?
Speaker 3: Someone I know severed three toes off there because they're
Speaker 3: wearing thongs. Severed three toes clean off with a pressure washer.
Speaker 3: And I'm like, that is not true.
Speaker 6: That's an urban legend.
Speaker 2: That is not true.
Speaker 6: They're strong, but they're not that strong no way.
Speaker 3: Someone says, right now with missing digits because of a
Speaker 3: pressure washer or is it just with the benefit of doubt,
Speaker 3: I have to get your elbow to tap out their
Speaker 3: phone number if you have lost fingers or toes while
Speaker 3: using a pressure washer.
Speaker 2: But you've got to still about someone making it worse.
Speaker 6: Oh, my mother in law did it in our place.
Speaker 6: She was she thought she was cleaning the floorboards with
Speaker 6: some kind of cleaning oil and didn't realize what she
Speaker 6: had was a product that used on chopping boards so
Speaker 6: that the oil soaks in a.
Speaker 2: Make like a stain.
Speaker 6: They are like a food protector almost, and so she
Speaker 6: stained all the maybe tear floorboards before she realized what
Speaker 6: she was doing.
Speaker 2: Now that's even worse. Now you've got some sort of
Speaker 2: two in shroud there on the floorboards.
Speaker 9: Ber you're listening to the christ you know, Carl's Show podcast.
Speaker 3: A gardener told me that he knew someone who was
Speaker 3: using a pressure washer and they accidentally severed off three
Speaker 3: of their toes.
Speaker 2: Now, I don't know if he's winding me up. Jack,
Speaker 2: you're pretty convinced he was.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't think it's strong enough to go through toes.
Speaker 2: Patsy, you know grizzy stories.
Speaker 3: You're writing to report in the news that someone's lost
Speaker 3: her digits through a pressure water.
Speaker 4: You know what if they were wearing dongs or bare feet,
Speaker 4: this guy was impossible.
Speaker 6: Even still on bare skin. I don't think it's strong
Speaker 6: enough to go through.
Speaker 3: It strong Yeah, nine four one four four three. Kerry,
Speaker 3: good morning. You made it worse.
Speaker 9: I made it very worse. My husband had an earache,
Speaker 9: so I put some ear dropped in his ear, not
Speaker 9: realizing that they were the dog's ear drops that were
Speaker 9: about six months out of date, and he ended up
Speaker 9: with an absence.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, yeah.
Speaker 3: I guess that'd be an even stronger one those big
Speaker 3: old doggie.
Speaker 2: Isn't it massive cold in there? You know we've got
Speaker 2: German shepherd dog down there. Infection. I always as to
Speaker 2: pump something in with some huge serrange.
Speaker 10: And I'm a nurse to boot.
Speaker 2: Oh no, Carrie, you should have known better. I know, Carrie,
Speaker 2: Thank you most of the story. Mate. Have a good day.

Speaker 11: Ah Hi, how are you going?
Speaker 2: I'm good, Cloris. I hope you had a nice weekend
Speaker 2: and you made it worse. Yeah, I did.
Speaker 11: When I was about ten, my dad had us over
Speaker 11: at a friend's place. They were doing some stuck out
Speaker 11: of the backyard and we've made a terrible mess in
Speaker 11: the house. So I had decided to clean the floors
Speaker 11: and my dad's girlfriend at the time used to just
Speaker 11: grab the bleach bottle and spray it all over the
Speaker 11: floors when she was cleaning. So what I didn't know
Speaker 11: was that she used to dilute the bottle, and so
Speaker 11: I grabbed the bleach bottle and I reread all over
Speaker 11: the floor, and it was the actual bleach bottle. So
Speaker 11: it left that white line all over these wooden floors.
Speaker 6: Yeah, you'd always wanted to white floors.
Speaker 10: No, no, but the thing was it wasn't even our house,
Speaker 10: so it was it was there goes the deposits.
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, that's incredible. Yeah, Chris, thank you very much
Speaker 2: the story. And let's go Robert here, come on in, Robert, Yes, Rob, Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: we're good, Rob. Yeah.
Speaker 3: So gentlemen, yeah, yeah, we're very good. Now, Rob, you
Speaker 3: talk about pressure washers. Have you lost toes?
Speaker 12: I haven't lost a toe. But I saw a bloke
Speaker 12: who was using an industry one nearly lose a handy
Speaker 12: host first while he was using it, and I went
Speaker 12: through an armored club and nearly took his hand off.
Speaker 12: And I personally have one that will cut concrete.
Speaker 3: Did cutcong It's going to cut through your meta tassels
Speaker 3: or your meto castle.
Speaker 6: Obviously that's a different one than you're using on your
Speaker 6: garage door.
Speaker 2: Stonemason's version.
Speaker 12: The ones you can buy now have such a high
Speaker 12: pressure that they're basically the same that will cut your
Speaker 12: toes off.
Speaker 10: Anyone can buy them.
Speaker 6: Anyone, Rob, We were talking in here about an urban
Speaker 6: legend of even a guy popping his friend's head off,
Speaker 6: his head off two.
Speaker 2: We talk about stuff like that. Is that time you
Speaker 2: would be able to in time the.
Speaker 6: Future as advancements in pressure washers get to start, well.
Speaker 12: So old bristle and and attendance and blood vessels inflation
Speaker 12: to cut through.
Speaker 2: It'll cut through all good stuff for our breakfast show.
Speaker 2: All right, Rob, thank you very much.
Speaker 10: You could.
Speaker 12: Have a great day.
Speaker 2: This is the christ you know Connells Show podcast, Christian.
Speaker 3: I just tried to call into so I knew someone
Speaker 3: who lost toes from a pressure hose. The reason why
Speaker 3: we're talking about this, I was one of the team
Speaker 3: that early on this year. I was using my pressure
Speaker 3: washer and a gardener who haven't been working on the
Speaker 3: house opposite came. I said, hey, make sure using a
Speaker 3: hard show on that I know someone who lost three
Speaker 3: toes using a pressure washer. We're not sure about this took. Sorry,
Speaker 3: but this guy here because he knows someone lost toes
Speaker 3: from a pressure hose. He got a compo pey out
Speaker 3: and told me if I ever need a quick cash.
Speaker 2: I should do the same.
Speaker 6: What what do you need your pinky toe for?
Speaker 2: Really?
Speaker 3: I think the thumb. The thumb, you get the most
Speaker 3: money from me if you lose it in the dustyal acxence.
Speaker 3: I presume the same with you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 3: I can go and see McCartney this year. Samie McCartney
Speaker 3: is going to look out giving it the old thumbs
Speaker 3: up like he does. They've got no thumbs in Melbourne,
Speaker 3: all right, nine four one four one o four three.
Speaker 2: You made it worse. Good morning Mary, and good morning Mary.
Speaker 8: So what a nineteen eighty nine first job putting in
Speaker 8: the OLS over the weekend, working on my keyboard, which
Speaker 8: is a very old and clanky, drinking my diet coke, bolt,
Speaker 8: my diet coke all over my keyboard, big manner, messive,
Speaker 8: panic attack, got soapy, sponge, went to wiper. So now
Speaker 8: my keyboards thoroughly wish and I'm thinking, oh, pooth put
Speaker 8: the founder heater, put it on, tried to drive it off,
Speaker 8: and all these keys warped into each other.
Speaker 2: Buddy, what do you put on top of the heater?
Speaker 8: No, no melt on top in front of the heater.
Speaker 2: I spent very strong the keyboards.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I melted the keyboards. A massive panic attacks. I'm
Speaker 8: like very young, first job, absolute palpitations about going to
Speaker 8: work on Monday.
Speaker 2: Mary, thank you very much for sharing story.
Speaker 10: Mate, have a good day, no rather than's tears.
Speaker 2: But Jason, good morning, Jason.
Speaker 10: Good morning, team, and Christian, how are we all? I
Speaker 10: made several things worse here. So my hands were really
Speaker 10: slippery one day, and I was trying to undo some superglue,
Speaker 10: and I decided that rather than going to wash my
Speaker 10: hands or dry my hands, I'd put the leader of
Speaker 10: the superglue in my teeth and rotate the superglue tube.
Speaker 10: By doing so, I also must have squeeze a little
Speaker 10: too hard, and then I filled my mouth up on
Speaker 10: the field the hard put superglue in my mouth immediately.
Speaker 10: I didn't want my tongue to get stuck to my teeth,
Speaker 10: so then I grabbed my tongue with my fingers with
Speaker 10: some and my little pit. Then I superglued dead together.
Speaker 10: But then I thought, I've got to get the super
Speaker 10: glue out, so I'll wash it out with some water.
Speaker 10: So then I went to the tap like your kitchen
Speaker 10: sink tap, turned on the tap and sort of like
Speaker 10: guzzling on the side, and that makes a super golog
Speaker 10: go off even harder. It makes it go off super quick.
Speaker 10: So from there I'm now stuck with my fingers attached
Speaker 10: to my tongue and then have to go to the
Speaker 10: doctor and then try and talk to people over the
Speaker 10: phone again in the.
Speaker 1: Pointick, Jason, that is an insane story.
Speaker 3: So what happened then when you got the daughters? I
Speaker 3: think it's Is it coffee granules? Is what some people
Speaker 3: say recommend you use when you when you stop the
Speaker 3: super glue?
Speaker 2: No, I'm not.
Speaker 10: I'm not sure. I just know that the doctor, I
Speaker 10: don't think he cared too much. He just pretty much
Speaker 10: pried my finger off the tongue. And yeah, the worst
Speaker 10: part having a.
Speaker 2: Bad days, all the patients get up and walk.
Speaker 10: And then years later I went to the dentist and
Speaker 10: he goes, oh, she seemed to have a lot of
Speaker 10: pluck on your bottom teeth. And I didn't think much
Speaker 10: and then we use all the goffe's, like this is weird.
Speaker 6: How many years later was the glue still on your team?
Speaker 10: Maybe five?
Speaker 3: It's really strong enamel, almost like now it is super glue,
Speaker 3: And it was really.
Speaker 10: Weird because then then on the bottom of your teeth
Speaker 10: you get that sensation back of all the ribs of
Speaker 10: the inside of the teeth.
Speaker 2: I heard that must have been lovely for you, you know,
Speaker 2: like here again.
Speaker 8: You know.
Speaker 10: So no, I did lots of things wrong.
Speaker 2: Really, We're going to make you our corner of the week.
Speaker 2: We love that story. I think we've had it on
Speaker 2: a Monday.
Speaker 3: But you want a thousand dollars right now? Thank you,

Speaker 2: Jason, really really well told story. Thank you very much.
Speaker 3: Thank all Right tomorrow on the show, more superglue stories.
Speaker 3: Everyone must have these strange superglue stories. The other thing
Speaker 3: I was thinking about on tomorrow's show, right so we've
Speaker 3: got miss her Lewis in a minute is like I
Speaker 3: was talking about an hour ago, almost talking about I
Speaker 3: made it worse when I was just too lazy to
Speaker 3: hook cut the pressure washer. It would have taken probably
Speaker 3: ten minutes but you know when you just tired on
Speaker 3: Sunday at the weekend, I just can't be bothered that
Speaker 3: ten minutes might as well be ten days, and so
Speaker 3: you take a shortcut. And that's when you make a
Speaker 3: mistake and you put bleach on something and it gets worse.
Speaker 3: How many times has something bad happened where we were
Speaker 3: just too lazy?
Speaker 6: Well even Jason was too lazy to wash his hair,
Speaker 6: so put the glue in his mouth.
Speaker 3: It's as simplers sometimes this, you know, when the remotess
Speaker 3: on the blink and you take batteries out of something
Speaker 3: else to give it to something else. At some point
Speaker 3: it went you're you're you're just banking for you to debt,
Speaker 3: are you? But and you were talking about how often
Speaker 3: there too lazy is when you can't be bothered to
Speaker 3: go and get a ladder.
Speaker 6: Oh yeah, the amount of times I was stood on
Speaker 6: a chair even sometimes a swivel chair, get up somewhere.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like a core workout.
Speaker 6: Stupid. But you just think, if I get the latter out,
Speaker 6: I gotta clunk it through the house, get it from
Speaker 6: the backyard.
Speaker 2: So tomorrow on the show Super Glue Stories. And also
Speaker 2: when you were too lazy. What happened to?
Speaker 3: Email me Christian at christiano'connell dot com dot au. Thanks Jason,
Speaker 3: great story, Carl A brighter.
