WEBVTT - MINI: She Won't Be Right

0:00:00.480 --> 0:00:00.800
<v Speaker 1>Quest.

0:00:00.880 --> 0:00:04.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell show podcast.

0:00:08.560 --> 0:00:12.120
<v Speaker 1>Flaying the song for the Montague Street Bridge because despite

0:00:12.200 --> 0:00:17.040
<v Speaker 1>repeated attacks, it is still there. I reckon it's the

0:00:17.120 --> 0:00:21.680
<v Speaker 1>toughest bridge in the world. How many people have driven

0:00:21.720 --> 0:00:23.960
<v Speaker 1>into it just this year alone. We started this year

0:00:23.960 --> 0:00:27.160
<v Speaker 1>with the kind of Montagu Street Bridge bingo because I

0:00:27.200 --> 0:00:29.200
<v Speaker 1>think we got to like February March and it hadn't

0:00:29.200 --> 0:00:30.320
<v Speaker 1>been hit, which is quite rare.

0:00:30.360 --> 0:00:32.720
<v Speaker 3>It was on its longest streak ever, I think at

0:00:32.800 --> 0:00:34.680
<v Speaker 3>ninety three days. That was the start of the year.

0:00:35.120 --> 0:00:37.200
<v Speaker 3>And then once the once the first come.

0:00:37.560 --> 0:00:39.760
<v Speaker 1>Roger Banister in the four minute mile every year. Once

0:00:39.800 --> 0:00:41.120
<v Speaker 1>that it's like open season. No.

0:00:41.400 --> 0:00:44.040
<v Speaker 3>Since then, it's been hit sixteen times, and the most

0:00:44.080 --> 0:00:45.120
<v Speaker 3>recent one was yesterday.

0:00:45.240 --> 0:00:46.360
<v Speaker 1>Incredible, isn't it.

0:00:46.920 --> 0:00:49.320
<v Speaker 3>You won yesterday. I mean sometimes you see it and

0:00:49.360 --> 0:00:52.440
<v Speaker 3>it's like a delivery van or a removalless truck and

0:00:52.479 --> 0:00:55.880
<v Speaker 3>it is just scraped through this guy yesterday in a

0:00:55.920 --> 0:00:59.960
<v Speaker 3>cement mixer is a meter off. There is no chair

0:01:00.320 --> 0:01:01.240
<v Speaker 3>he's ever gonna make it.

0:01:01.440 --> 0:01:04.680
<v Speaker 1>And also, if you're driving a cement mixer right, you're

0:01:04.760 --> 0:01:08.360
<v Speaker 1>fully aware that's a big ass truck behind you. It's

0:01:08.400 --> 0:01:10.200
<v Speaker 1>a cement mix, so they're huge.

0:01:10.360 --> 0:01:12.880
<v Speaker 3>It's moving. Yeah, it's trying to remind you all the time.

0:01:12.959 --> 0:01:14.360
<v Speaker 3>I'm on, I'm here right now.

0:01:14.400 --> 0:01:16.920
<v Speaker 1>Any bridge you need to like plan ahead, don't you?

0:01:16.959 --> 0:01:19.440
<v Speaker 1>And then wait? You know full well everyone knows if

0:01:19.480 --> 0:01:22.840
<v Speaker 1>drive around this city, wait, watch out for Montague Street bridge.

0:01:23.040 --> 0:01:25.480
<v Speaker 1>He's rammed. It looks actually he's wedged under there. It

0:01:25.480 --> 0:01:27.479
<v Speaker 1>looks like they built the bridge on top of his truck,

0:01:27.880 --> 0:01:30.000
<v Speaker 1>like it's just landed down on top of it. He's

0:01:30.040 --> 0:01:31.520
<v Speaker 1>so under there, perfectly wedged.

0:01:31.640 --> 0:01:33.240
<v Speaker 3>It looks like he's trying to get halfway through and

0:01:33.240 --> 0:01:36.080
<v Speaker 3>then gone, all right, well I'm halfway through, so maybe

0:01:36.080 --> 0:01:38.040
<v Speaker 3>I can just keep pushing and see what happens.

0:01:38.120 --> 0:01:39.720
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't help but feel sorry for the guy because

0:01:40.120 --> 0:01:42.360
<v Speaker 1>that's someone's Monday. You know, we can have a lot

0:01:42.400 --> 0:01:44.920
<v Speaker 1>out here, but that is someone's starting the week. What

0:01:45.000 --> 0:01:46.960
<v Speaker 1>do you do? Is there a special number you call?

0:01:47.200 --> 0:01:50.559
<v Speaker 1>There is a dedicated you've hit me, there's all this number.

0:01:50.560 --> 0:01:52.440
<v Speaker 3>There's a special sign that lives up there now that

0:01:52.480 --> 0:01:54.840
<v Speaker 3>says call this number if any incidents with the bridge

0:01:54.880 --> 0:01:55.400
<v Speaker 3>and do you reckon.

0:01:55.440 --> 0:01:57.680
<v Speaker 1>It's like someone's job, or it's their side job. Where

0:01:57.680 --> 0:01:59.880
<v Speaker 1>They've got a little number that flashes only good guys,

0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:03.120
<v Speaker 1>another one sixteen who have sweet sixteen in a sweet

0:02:03.200 --> 0:02:06.760
<v Speaker 1>steak and someone's winning something. It's a remarkable story and

0:02:06.840 --> 0:02:09.560
<v Speaker 1>a great photo. Sick in this morning. When I first

0:02:09.600 --> 0:02:12.400
<v Speaker 1>moved to Australia, I suddenly realize everyone likes to say

0:02:12.639 --> 0:02:14.880
<v Speaker 1>shit be right. And it's a very nice kind of

0:02:14.919 --> 0:02:16.760
<v Speaker 1>thing for not overthinking, not over worry.

0:02:16.880 --> 0:02:19.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it works for so many situations.

0:02:19.639 --> 0:02:21.760
<v Speaker 1>Should be right, yeah, and for you know, people in

0:02:21.760 --> 0:02:24.320
<v Speaker 1>my country are quite uptight people. It's a nice way

0:02:24.360 --> 0:02:26.040
<v Speaker 1>to sort of down regulate a bit and take it

0:02:26.080 --> 0:02:27.960
<v Speaker 1>easy and chet out a bit here in Australia. But

0:02:28.000 --> 0:02:30.920
<v Speaker 1>sometimes in life you do need to you do need

0:02:30.960 --> 0:02:33.760
<v Speaker 1>to plan, you need to calculate, you need to think ahead.

0:02:33.800 --> 0:02:36.959
<v Speaker 1>And actually it's not right. She'll be right. There must

0:02:37.040 --> 0:02:39.280
<v Speaker 1>be stories like that guy probably thought she'd be right.

0:02:39.320 --> 0:02:42.040
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to get the cement mixer under Montague Street Bridge.

0:02:42.160 --> 0:02:44.960
<v Speaker 1>Suddenly he's wedged under, he's hammered into it, he's smashed

0:02:45.000 --> 0:02:47.160
<v Speaker 1>into it. We're looking for stories this morning on nine

0:02:47.240 --> 0:02:49.520
<v Speaker 1>four one four one o four three, When wasn't she

0:02:49.560 --> 0:02:52.200
<v Speaker 1>all right? Okay, there's got to be moments in life,

0:02:52.200 --> 0:02:54.920
<v Speaker 1>We're like, do you know what I have under calculated

0:02:55.360 --> 0:02:58.359
<v Speaker 1>over optimistic? Turns out she wasn't all right?

0:02:58.560 --> 0:03:01.239
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I use my mantra right and I was wrong.

0:03:01.400 --> 0:03:04.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, she wasn't all right. We're looking for those stories

0:03:04.200 --> 0:03:07.160
<v Speaker 1>when you miscalculated, you didn't think it through enough. What

0:03:07.280 --> 0:03:10.000
<v Speaker 1>is your version of being wedged under the Montague Street

0:03:10.000 --> 0:03:14.600
<v Speaker 1>Bridge on a Monday The Christian O'Connell show podcast. We're

0:03:14.600 --> 0:03:17.480
<v Speaker 1>looking for this morning stories, the other side of shitby

0:03:17.480 --> 0:03:21.000
<v Speaker 1>al right when she she actually wasn't right. You really

0:03:21.080 --> 0:03:23.280
<v Speaker 1>should have actually why I thought it through? You were

0:03:23.280 --> 0:03:26.480
<v Speaker 1>too optimistic, You didn't calculate, You just thought it'd be okay.

0:03:26.480 --> 0:03:29.239
<v Speaker 1>You were too blase. A suddenly, hindsight puts to the

0:03:29.280 --> 0:03:32.240
<v Speaker 1>other side of Shibby right when she wasn't right. The

0:03:32.320 --> 0:03:35.520
<v Speaker 1>story's don't need to be about Vicker's being wedged in anything.

0:03:35.560 --> 0:03:38.080
<v Speaker 1>It can be anything that's happened where suddenly you're I

0:03:38.200 --> 0:03:41.120
<v Speaker 1>really didn't think that through. That's most of us in

0:03:41.160 --> 0:03:43.320
<v Speaker 1>the show, isn't it, Ashley, Jenny.

0:03:43.000 --> 0:03:45.920
<v Speaker 4>Good morning for mine, Christian, how are you?

0:03:46.200 --> 0:03:48.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm good, Jenny, Thanks for cool on the show. So

0:03:48.240 --> 0:03:50.120
<v Speaker 1>what is your story for she won't be right.

0:03:51.240 --> 0:03:56.120
<v Speaker 4>Well, I've borrowed my cousin's Powell drive like a troop terrier,

0:03:56.160 --> 0:03:58.560
<v Speaker 4>which is not higher than a normal cart, so I

0:03:58.680 --> 0:04:01.080
<v Speaker 4>borrowed it. This Diana had a shitty day at work

0:04:01.120 --> 0:04:03.480
<v Speaker 4>and I was on the way home and forgot about

0:04:03.520 --> 0:04:05.480
<v Speaker 4>the car port and went to drive under the car

0:04:05.600 --> 0:04:07.840
<v Speaker 4>port and bang pushed the roof in.

0:04:08.720 --> 0:04:12.080
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, a bad day is even drive worse now,

0:04:12.200 --> 0:04:13.840
<v Speaker 1>isn't it. She won't be right?

0:04:14.800 --> 0:04:16.560
<v Speaker 4>And my kids were there trying to push the roof

0:04:16.600 --> 0:04:22.040
<v Speaker 4>back out with their feature and now ex husband, he

0:04:22.360 --> 0:04:23.840
<v Speaker 4>just laughed, he just laughs.

0:04:24.000 --> 0:04:26.400
<v Speaker 1>Yes, all right, Jenny, thank you very much. She called,

0:04:26.480 --> 0:04:28.200
<v Speaker 1>let's go to Meck morning.

0:04:28.279 --> 0:04:31.719
<v Speaker 2>Mick, Hey Chrisson, how are young mate?

0:04:31.800 --> 0:04:33.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm good, Mix. So what's your story for she won't

0:04:33.880 --> 0:04:35.520
<v Speaker 1>be right? Well?

0:04:35.520 --> 0:04:38.840
<v Speaker 2>Look, I was delivering white road marking paint, one of

0:04:38.920 --> 0:04:40.760
<v Speaker 2>my jobs on the Gold Coast when I was in

0:04:40.839 --> 0:04:43.520
<v Speaker 2>my team, and I put more more paint in the

0:04:43.600 --> 0:04:46.080
<v Speaker 2>van than anyone had ever put in before. And I

0:04:46.160 --> 0:04:48.400
<v Speaker 2>was going up a pretty steep hill, chugging up at

0:04:48.400 --> 0:04:50.440
<v Speaker 2>about forty kilometers an hour, and as I was watching

0:04:50.440 --> 0:04:52.880
<v Speaker 2>in the mirror, one of them started to rock and

0:04:52.960 --> 0:04:55.680
<v Speaker 2>I bounce back and forward, then I sided to roll

0:04:55.760 --> 0:04:58.160
<v Speaker 2>towards the back of the van, smashed the back door,

0:04:59.240 --> 0:05:02.200
<v Speaker 2>and I all this thing. I saw it go end

0:05:02.279 --> 0:05:05.000
<v Speaker 2>over end in slow motion in my head and then

0:05:05.160 --> 0:05:09.120
<v Speaker 2>exploded on the road. And this white road marking paint

0:05:09.200 --> 0:05:10.640
<v Speaker 2>drives in about five minutes.

0:05:10.880 --> 0:05:13.000
<v Speaker 1>Of course, that is amazing.

0:05:13.440 --> 0:05:15.960
<v Speaker 3>And it's designed to stay stuck to the road forever.

0:05:16.120 --> 0:05:19.640
<v Speaker 2>Yes, I'm certain it's still there to that.

0:05:22.680 --> 0:05:24.240
<v Speaker 1>The key part of that is what are they giving

0:05:24.279 --> 0:05:27.400
<v Speaker 1>all that responsibility, you know, to a teenager to do

0:05:27.480 --> 0:05:27.840
<v Speaker 1>as well?

0:05:29.440 --> 0:05:33.800
<v Speaker 2>Well, what could possibly go wrong? All I had to

0:05:33.880 --> 0:05:34.680
<v Speaker 2>do was deliberate.

0:05:37.040 --> 0:05:38.800
<v Speaker 1>That's a great well met. Thank you very much, your

0:05:38.839 --> 0:05:41.680
<v Speaker 1>story mate, Have a good day. The Christian O'Connell Show
