Don't extending to work having 0:01:14.200 --> 0:01:16.319 a football. I don't believe they do, no, because they 0:01:16.319 --> 0:01:19.679 don't have that kind of lightweight fur that cats have. 0:01:19.800 --> 0:01:21.280 You know that just at comes off with a lick. 0:01:21.560 --> 0:01:23.600 It's as I was in the kitchen yesterday and he 0:01:23.680 --> 0:01:26.039 comes in. He's meant to be a farm dog. He's 0:01:26.080 --> 0:01:27.959 a farm dog. Bread and he goes to bed in 0:01:27.959 --> 0:01:28.520 the afternoon. 0:01:28.600 --> 0:01:31.480 That is not a farm dog. I've seen pictures of that. 0:01:31.480 --> 0:01:32.680 That's not a farm dog. 0:01:32.800 --> 0:01:35.560 He's a farm dog. He would be replacing the oxen. 0:01:37.360 --> 0:01:40.920 Till in the fields. Oxen. When was the last time 0:01:40.959 --> 0:01:43.200 he said that in the radio or even conversation in 0:01:43.200 --> 0:01:45.000 your own lives. 0:01:46.480 --> 0:01:49.200 This dog is so spoiled. I let him in for 0:01:49.280 --> 0:01:51.960 cuddles in the afternoon, he just takes himself off to bed. 0:01:52.040 --> 0:01:53.400 I'm the one that should be in bed. 0:01:53.440 --> 0:01:56.680 But what did you go from work right yesterday? And 0:01:56.720 --> 0:01:58.560 he's just like spread out over that big old sort 0:01:58.560 --> 0:01:59.160 of family bed. 0:01:59.080 --> 0:02:01.160 For you and Christmas takes the whole king sized bed. 0:02:01.080 --> 0:02:03.120 And he just leans over more chucks a Vomit. 0:02:02.920 --> 0:02:05.120 Doesn't lean over, it just does it in the middle 0:02:05.120 --> 0:02:09.000 of the bed. But it's like that for about five minutes, 0:02:09.000 --> 0:02:09.560 and you're like. 0:02:09.480 --> 0:02:12.560 Oh no, because they do. It's not one movie. And 0:02:12.560 --> 0:02:14.600 then it's like some sort of yogurt thing they do 0:02:14.639 --> 0:02:16.040 with the bum goes up. In the end, they're like 0:02:16.800 --> 0:02:18.760 they're emptying out everything from the stomach. Then they have 0:02:18.760 --> 0:02:22.840 a good old they start eating, Oh yucky, you have 0:02:22.840 --> 0:02:26.520 any macas your coffees go, it's not They start drinking 0:02:26.560 --> 0:02:28.760 their vomit, all the little chunks back in, sucking it in. 0:02:29.040 --> 0:02:31.840 It's a long time sting. 0:02:33.000 --> 0:02:36.240 So I didn't get to him in time to shove 0:02:36.320 --> 0:02:37.880 him off the bed and at least do it on the. 0:02:37.800 --> 0:02:39.800 Floor hard with an ox. You got to get the 0:02:39.840 --> 0:02:44.120 power attached to plow. It's on the bedroom floor. 0:02:44.919 --> 0:02:47.560 It's disgusting. So that was my afternoon. 0:02:47.600 --> 0:02:50.519 And then you have to clean all all the bed sheets. 0:02:50.520 --> 0:02:54.280 Wash everything, and sooners up at the laundromat. 0:02:53.639 --> 0:02:55.640 And it all goes through as well. You'll get that 0:02:55.760 --> 0:02:57.880 weird circle thing on your metress. 0:02:59.520 --> 0:03:01.720 Is anyone who hasn't had a mattress more than a 0:03:01.800 --> 0:03:04.840 year that isn't stayed somehow? It's awful and you'll get 0:03:04.919 --> 0:03:06.640 rid of them. And I think I spilled some deal 0:03:09.040 --> 0:03:14.080 tea Ben she must. I've never seen a mattress as 0:03:14.120 --> 0:03:17.200 year adult that isn't stained. I think even the royal family, 0:03:17.360 --> 0:03:20.919 everyone's got stained. Matt brad Pitt, that's why they stayed. 0:03:21.160 --> 0:03:24.080 What's happening to us during the night? Anyway, I fear 0:03:24.080 --> 0:03:26.440 that we've said too much. This morning, we'll reset the 0:03:26.440 --> 0:03:26.840 shelf for. 0:03:26.880 --> 0:03:30.160 This The Christian O'Connell show podcast. 0:03:30.400 --> 0:03:34.360 You guys ever spoken to anyone who's actually in quarantine? 0:03:34.840 --> 0:03:35.440 No? 0:03:35.440 --> 0:03:38.240 No, I had no idea what it's like in there, right, So, yes, sir, 0:03:38.320 --> 0:03:40.119 speaking to a friend of mine, Tom. He's our week 0:03:40.200 --> 0:03:44.120 into his two week at residency in a quarantine hotel, right, 0:03:44.160 --> 0:03:47.560 And obviously these hotels they're doing their best, right so 0:03:47.680 --> 0:03:49.960 and their they're basic hotels. They're just trying to do 0:03:50.000 --> 0:03:51.800 it and get everyone through it and keep the city 0:03:51.880 --> 0:03:54.400 safe and up and running. However, I didn't know what 0:03:54.440 --> 0:03:56.280 life is like in this doesn't. Chatting to him, I said, 0:03:56.320 --> 0:03:58.640 what is a day like? And he goes, God, the 0:03:58.680 --> 0:04:01.160 first couple of days were really high. He got so 0:04:01.280 --> 0:04:03.760 bored because we all think, ah, you watch Netflix and 0:04:03.800 --> 0:04:05.840 stand all that. He goes, yeah, you'll do that for 0:04:05.840 --> 0:04:08.080 an hour or two and then you're like, I've got 0:04:08.080 --> 0:04:11.880 another fourteen hours of this day. So he said on 0:04:12.080 --> 0:04:14.760 day three, you had a kind of breakdown as he 0:04:14.840 --> 0:04:18.599 found himself pacing out the distance around his bed like 0:04:18.800 --> 0:04:24.440 riding out works out it was six meters. He then 0:04:24.680 --> 0:04:27.839 did that one thousand times, sat on the bed and 0:04:27.920 --> 0:04:31.240 almost started to cry. And that's day three, Yes, that's 0:04:31.320 --> 0:04:35.000 day three. He then realizes, right that, you know, in 0:04:35.000 --> 0:04:37.000 any kind of it's the word the free market, that 0:04:37.040 --> 0:04:38.880 there are companies who worked out that people and then 0:04:38.880 --> 0:04:41.760 they need stuff. There's a company then, and obviously, what 0:04:41.800 --> 0:04:44.039 a great contract to have where you go online you 0:04:44.080 --> 0:04:48.560 can order in fitness gear cool yep, so exercise bikes, 0:04:48.760 --> 0:04:51.640 rowing machines, weights, you can order as much. You won't 0:04:51.640 --> 0:04:53.719 got to pay for a premium obviously, but they bring 0:04:53.760 --> 0:04:55.400 you gear and stuff like that. So he's got a 0:04:55.839 --> 0:04:58.400 the only thing that was left because everyone else when 0:04:58.400 --> 0:05:00.719 they started the two weeks stint been we're aware of this. 0:05:00.800 --> 0:05:03.320 He wasn't. He's got some old sort of school gym 0:05:03.720 --> 0:05:06.840 static bike that one of those old sort of metallic ones, 0:05:08.400 --> 0:05:11.279 even just getting one like one reps on this manky 0:05:11.320 --> 0:05:15.600 old nineteen seventies exercise bike every day with no view, 0:05:15.720 --> 0:05:17.520 just looking at a wall, you know, he says. So 0:05:17.600 --> 0:05:19.120 he's got that now to happen out, And I said, 0:05:19.120 --> 0:05:21.360 what was about the alcohol, because I didn't know whether 0:05:21.360 --> 0:05:22.080 you were now to drink it? 0:05:22.200 --> 0:05:23.120 Do you have a mini bar? 0:05:23.760 --> 0:05:27.599 No? No spirits? Okay, I think for that kind of rule, 0:05:27.720 --> 0:05:31.200 they've something's happened. You don't start with that rule. If 0:05:31.200 --> 0:05:35.080 someone someone's gone too heavy in the spirits like day 0:05:35.120 --> 0:05:37.320 one have just been a pain in the backside, They're like, hey, 0:05:37.320 --> 0:05:40.000 for now on, guys, leave the top shelf stuff along, right, 0:05:40.440 --> 0:05:42.240 You've got enough demons to get through in two weeks. 0:05:42.279 --> 0:05:44.119 Don't bring them out of the bottle. So no top 0:05:44.160 --> 0:05:44.880 shelf boost. 0:05:45.120 --> 0:05:45.240 Right. 0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:49.080 When he's like checking in, he says he doesn't want 0:05:49.080 --> 0:05:51.160 to make up that he's obviously needing wine to get through. 0:05:51.200 --> 0:05:54.240 He goes, and if I, you know, on a Friday 0:05:54.320 --> 0:05:58.159 or Saturday night, he's aging every night Friday, you know, 0:05:58.160 --> 0:06:01.880 I do love a class, just want to how much 0:06:01.920 --> 0:06:03.719 isn't there? He goes, it's one bottle of day And 0:06:03.760 --> 0:06:06.320 he went, right, okay, all right, okay, and then he goes, 0:06:06.960 --> 0:06:09.200 I would never have an extra glass of a second one. 0:06:09.200 --> 0:06:12.280 But if I wanted to know, if I wanted to 0:06:12.640 --> 0:06:14.320 some kind of bottle of just I'm not going to 0:06:14.440 --> 0:06:15.880 have the second bottle. But if I want to do 0:06:16.080 --> 0:06:18.160 this is a comfort knowing it sension. It's one bottle 0:06:18.160 --> 0:06:20.600 of day. You see, he's got the situation now. Sometimes 0:06:20.800 --> 0:06:22.920 he goes, he can dislim himself till six o'clock. He 0:06:22.960 --> 0:06:24.360 gets to all six lot and then he has a 0:06:24.400 --> 0:06:26.800 glass of wine said by sort of corba seven. The 0:06:26.839 --> 0:06:29.320 whole bottle was gone, and he's got another long cut 0:06:29.360 --> 0:06:31.680 of arts before he goes to bed. He's now rationing 0:06:31.760 --> 0:06:34.120 himself on some days having no wine so he can 0:06:34.120 --> 0:06:38.120 have an x a couple of glasses. This is his 0:06:38.240 --> 0:06:41.120 life for two weeks. I was thinking, right, you know, 0:06:41.240 --> 0:06:43.880 if I was that fitness company, you would make you 0:06:44.279 --> 0:06:48.800 triple your profits sneaking in boost you go. He wants 0:06:48.839 --> 0:06:53.200 an exit cut of dumb beells, six bottles of sales 0:06:53.240 --> 0:06:56.120 dumb bells. I'd be smuggling them and charging him a 0:06:56.120 --> 0:06:56.919 lot more in cash. 0:06:56.960 --> 0:06:58.400 Why are these medicine balls clicking? 0:07:01.880 --> 0:07:04.480 Christian O'Connell show. 0:07:03.839 --> 0:07:08.159 Podcast feel really bad.

My mates used to do this. 0:09:22.320 --> 0:09:24.199 In our minds, we were as good as the guys 0:09:24.200 --> 0:09:26.920 out in the Bronx. I thank god there wasn't video around. 0:09:27.200 --> 0:09:31.120 We musta just like an absolute bunch of tools and 0:09:31.200 --> 0:09:33.880 do our routines. And also she's putting brackets here at 0:09:33.920 --> 0:09:38.360 battle other breakdancers. There was a big scene back then, 0:09:38.400 --> 0:09:40.679 and we would wax school to catch a train into 0:09:40.720 --> 0:09:43.760 the city where the breakdancing action was. This feels like 0:09:44.160 --> 0:09:46.840 the setup to an eighties movie, doesn't it. We would 0:09:46.880 --> 0:09:49.199 wag school to catch a train. They would wag school 0:09:49.200 --> 0:09:51.360 to catch a train into the city where the breakdancing 0:09:51.480 --> 0:09:55.760 action was. Christian eighties from me back to the future, 0:09:56.160 --> 0:09:57.920 even more excited to see at the end of that 0:09:58.000 --> 0:10:01.360 amazing movie to be continued who knew it before? Years 0:10:01.400 --> 0:10:03.960 later until we've got to see part two, and also 0:10:04.040 --> 0:10:08.040 Bill and Ted's excellent adventure that's from Andrew. Let's to 0:10:08.080 --> 0:10:10.840 be from the eighties has to include a buckle bag. 0:10:12.080 --> 0:10:14.520 I don't remember these, she can but say, I bet 0:10:14.520 --> 0:10:15.240 Patsy had one. 0:10:15.400 --> 0:10:16.280 Yeah, I did you know? 0:10:16.320 --> 0:10:18.760 I've still got my original briefcase when I'd got my 0:10:18.800 --> 0:10:19.400 first job. 0:10:19.600 --> 0:10:22.080 Why did you? Why didn't you speak up yesterday? B 0:10:22.400 --> 0:10:23.360 for briefcase? 0:10:24.360 --> 0:10:26.400 And I've still got it because it nearly cost. 0:10:26.320 --> 0:10:29.840 Me having, you know, real big running battles with rival breakdance, 0:10:29.880 --> 0:10:32.959 cruise the other side the word. Meanwhile, in the solid world, 0:10:33.000 --> 0:10:34.720 there's young Patsy with a briefcase. 0:10:34.760 --> 0:10:36.800 My news in my briefcase. Let's get my news out. 0:10:37.040 --> 0:10:37.880 Pats you're only. 0:10:37.720 --> 0:10:41.000 Twelve and had a big buckle on the front of 0:10:41.040 --> 0:10:42.559 it on the briefcase. 0:10:42.640 --> 0:10:44.480 Yes, I seen that look since the eighties. 0:10:44.520 --> 0:10:47.479 Really The Christian O'Connell Show. 0:10:47.240 --> 0:10:50.480 Podcast of the eighties, once a week with a letter, 0:10:50.679 --> 0:10:52.520 ask you what is your connection to the eighties. This 0:10:52.520 --> 0:10:56.400 week's been the letter B Christner. I understand your Susannah 0:10:56.440 --> 0:10:58.840 Hoff's fixation in the eighties. There it was just a 0:10:58.880 --> 0:11:02.400 teenage crush. Let's take out the word fixation. Everyone had 0:11:02.400 --> 0:11:05.160 a teenage crush in the eighties, and Jack isn't a 0:11:05.240 --> 0:11:08.880 child of the eighties, but even he understands the law 0:11:09.120 --> 0:11:10.640 of Susanna Hoss. 0:11:10.679 --> 0:11:13.040 I didn't even I didn't really even know about her 0:11:13.320 --> 0:11:17.160 until last year, and then I got down a YouTube 0:11:17.200 --> 0:11:18.400 wormhole of their video. 0:11:18.559 --> 0:11:22.120 That's bad an adult age all right. Thank god YouTube 0:11:22.160 --> 0:11:24.480 wasn't there for me. I think that she would have 0:11:24.520 --> 0:11:26.920 died with the excitement, and I wouldn't have been able 0:11:26.920 --> 0:11:28.800 to control myself. My parents would have foundly one day, 0:11:28.800 --> 0:11:31.600 just slumped over a terminal, and he died doing what 0:11:31.640 --> 0:11:36.680 he loved to do, just hearing down what we mean. Anyway, 0:11:36.720 --> 0:11:40.120 Let's lose the word fixation, Philip Vell, which I understand 0:11:40.120 --> 0:11:42.240 your Susanna Hoff's fixation in the eighties, but I see 0:11:42.280 --> 0:11:45.360 your Susanna Hofs and raise you Belinda Carlisle. It's not 0:11:45.440 --> 0:11:50.480 a game. Let's not put Susanna Hoffs up against Belinda 0:11:50.520 --> 0:11:53.040 Carlisle to fight it out for the letter B as 0:11:53.120 --> 0:11:55.160 we crown the queen of the letter B in the eighties, 0:11:55.360 --> 0:11:57.640 Please Phil, Yes, and on the show, so I was 0:11:57.679 --> 0:12:00.240 saying hell for me, the letter B was always just 0:12:00.280 --> 0:12:02.560 about my BMX bike. I loved it. If you're a 0:12:02.559 --> 0:12:05.160 bmxer in the eighties, they're still around now. I had 0:12:05.200 --> 0:12:07.840 an Amaco Too Too silver Star with a Renthorpe laid 0:12:07.840 --> 0:12:11.560 back seat post mushromokele grips, and my wife and my 0:12:11.679 --> 0:12:14.000 fortieth found that exact bike got it off. 0:12:14.040 --> 0:12:16.120 eBoy, Oh, such a lovely gif. 0:12:16.280 --> 0:12:18.800 Yeah, that's what I thought. And then Dan Mabertha, I 0:12:18.840 --> 0:12:21.440 thought I'd take it out for a spin. And I 0:12:21.480 --> 0:12:23.960 saw sort of cycling around a cycle past a chip shop, 0:12:24.400 --> 0:12:27.600 and I saw my reflection on it. You ever catch 0:12:27.640 --> 0:12:30.160 your reflection Sometimes you don't know it's you, nig Who 0:12:30.240 --> 0:12:33.040 is that? Oh God? And I saw a sad middle 0:12:33.080 --> 0:12:36.280 aged man, and I so go back home, went I'm 0:12:36.280 --> 0:12:37.240 really sorry. 0:12:37.360 --> 0:12:38.760 I can't ride this. 0:12:39.840 --> 0:12:42.800 We sold it, and a guy my age came round right. 0:12:43.240 --> 0:12:44.880 I don't want to judge him, but you know some 0:12:44.920 --> 0:12:47.360 guys who think that they're looking effortless with their look. 0:12:47.480 --> 0:12:50.200 We think you spent ages on that. That hair would 0:12:50.240 --> 0:12:52.200 have taken ten minutes to get that kind of messy 0:12:52.920 --> 0:12:57.640 my age. He had a wallet chain. Okay, you have it. Yeah, 0:12:58.720 --> 0:13:02.360 it goes with your hour fit. Okay, waved him off. 0:13:02.960 --> 0:13:04.600 Don't ride past any shop windows. 0:13:04.679 --> 0:13:06.320 I had it barely a couple of days. I had 0:13:06.360 --> 0:13:08.640 to say some things you shouldn't go back to. It 0:13:08.679 --> 0:13:11.120 was not right anyway, bmx's We were talking about this 0:13:11.200 --> 0:13:13.280 movie and how much I loved it in nineteen eighty three, 0:13:13.520 --> 0:13:16.680 BMX Bandits. Do you remember this Nicole Kidman as a 0:13:16.720 --> 0:13:17.560 young teenager? 0:13:18.640 --> 0:13:22.640 BMX Bandits fre wild in the streets, in the chase 0:13:22.800 --> 0:13:27.520 trend of all chasers. It's thrills and spills. It's fast 0:13:27.520 --> 0:13:31.200 on jurious fun. There's only one word to describe it. 0:13:31.559 --> 0:13:31.800 Wow. 0:13:33.360 --> 0:13:40.120 I don't even know what that word was, all right, 0:13:40.160 --> 0:13:42.400 BMX Bandit. So I begged Jack Post to go and 0:13:42.440 --> 0:13:45.960 watch this movie right before you do. A disclaimer from 0:13:46.040 --> 0:13:49.320 listener Mal Christian. I was listening to the show yesterday. 0:13:49.360 --> 0:13:52.599 You suggested that Jack Post should watch BMX Bandits. I 0:13:52.640 --> 0:13:54.400 thought i'd send you an email to read to him 0:13:54.440 --> 0:13:57.719 to say why he shouldn't watch this movie only a 0:13:57.760 --> 0:13:59.960 few days ago, like you at the time in the eighties, 0:14:00.120 --> 0:14:02.000 loved it. I can tell you that a classic it 0:14:02.080 --> 0:14:05.480 is not as a movie is aged very badly. I 0:14:05.559 --> 0:14:07.080 was going to go into a full review of the 0:14:07.080 --> 0:14:09.760 film and break it down into the individual issues slash 0:14:09.760 --> 0:14:13.280 problems or flaws if you will, about only after ten 0:14:13.320 --> 0:14:16.800 minutes off this movie. I'd written two pages of notes 0:14:18.000 --> 0:14:19.760 only ten minutes of the movie, so I had to 0:14:19.800 --> 0:14:23.480 abandon this idea. So let's get into this BMX bandits. 0:14:23.520 --> 0:14:25.600 It's a great title. Going into this movie. You expensively 0:14:25.640 --> 0:14:28.680 high flying stunts, people jumping, doing tricks of possibly over 0:14:28.760 --> 0:14:32.120 houses buildings. I'd ever thought that while running from the law, 0:14:32.400 --> 0:14:34.640 after pulling off some kind of daring. 0:14:34.440 --> 0:14:36.880 Heights thrills spilled fast and furious. 0:14:36.880 --> 0:14:39.840 They guaranteed it, But no, what do we get? Some 0:14:39.960 --> 0:14:42.680 kids find some walky talkies and sell them to well 0:14:42.720 --> 0:14:46.240 anyone and everyone in Sydney with the most inet criminals 0:14:46.240 --> 0:14:48.200 you've ever seen in a movie, even compared to those 0:14:48.200 --> 0:14:51.360 guys from Home Alone. Side point, he's right here, which 0:14:51.440 --> 0:14:54.360 is a phony in one day terrible baddies of movies. 0:14:54.960 --> 0:14:56.800 But James Bond used to have them all for ones. 0:14:56.840 --> 0:14:59.200 They would explain when they capture James Bond, they would 0:14:59.200 --> 0:15:01.200 spend for an hour explaining what the hell they're going 0:15:01.280 --> 0:15:03.680 to blow up the world giving James and how is 0:15:03.760 --> 0:15:06.520 the time to escape? I'd always see, why don't just 0:15:06.600 --> 0:15:10.600 kill him? Now? Why waste an hour explaining exactly in 0:15:10.640 --> 0:15:13.280 great detail whether the bomb is and a detonation code 0:15:13.320 --> 0:15:17.680 and all that. Anyway, let's jump into the real issue here, BMX. 0:15:17.920 --> 0:15:20.400 So how about the BMX flips and spins and jumps. 0:15:20.440 --> 0:15:22.720 We were expecting that should let at least be worth 0:15:22.760 --> 0:15:25.680 a watch, right, wrong, in block capitals, the highlights you 0:15:26.480 --> 0:15:29.560 consist of one of the BMX bandits running into a 0:15:29.600 --> 0:15:33.120 mild stack of shopping carts and falling off the bike, 0:15:33.280 --> 0:15:35.200 or maybe the moment they decided to go for a 0:15:35.240 --> 0:15:37.200 swim and take the bikes down to a water slider 0:15:37.240 --> 0:15:39.880 as you do, or just going a maximum height of 0:15:39.880 --> 0:15:42.440 two feet in the air and moving their handlebos a 0:15:42.440 --> 0:15:47.480 little bit to the left. That's it, Christian, be honest, 0:15:47.720 --> 0:15:51.160 it's a terrible movie. Jack, both do not watch it. 0:15:51.400 --> 0:15:52.960 I actually want to watch it more than. 0:15:53.680 --> 0:15:55.880 Sorry, Maw, we're gonna have to disagree. We're going back 0:15:55.880 --> 0:15:57.600 into it. Okay, we're going to take a break. If 0:15:57.640 --> 0:16:00.240 you've got any more great stories about the letter in 0:16:00.280 --> 0:16:02.560 the eighties. One thing I didn't hear from yesterday, because 0:16:02.560 --> 0:16:04.760 maybe it's not out there. I would love to speak 0:16:04.800 --> 0:16:09.200 to anyone whose parents saw the rival video technology VHS 0:16:09.240 --> 0:16:12.000 and Beta Max and went be to Max. Did anyone 0:16:12.120 --> 0:16:14.720 have a family household that actually had the bet Max? 0:16:17.240 --> 0:16:19.840 Christian O'Connell show podcast. 0:16:20.040 --> 0:16:22.480 Of the eighties this week it's a letter. B just 0:16:22.480 --> 0:16:24.920 been asking did anyone have a b to Max? And 0:16:25.240 --> 0:16:27.120 I've just asked Jack to try and remind us all 0:16:27.520 --> 0:16:30.280 what was the difference between the two rivals. There was 0:16:30.320 --> 0:16:33.160 the VHS and there was the Beta Max. Were they different? 0:16:33.480 --> 0:16:35.280 Wildly different technology? 0:16:35.400 --> 0:16:38.160 No, they were both video cassettes. Be to Max was 0:16:38.200 --> 0:16:42.320 actually out first made by Sony a year before Sony 0:16:42.520 --> 0:16:47.040 Yeah and JBC released VHS. VHS was just able to 0:16:47.120 --> 0:16:49.840 record for longer, so Beta Max could only record for 0:16:49.920 --> 0:16:53.240 one hour and VHS could record for longer, so people 0:16:53.240 --> 0:16:55.760 who wanted to record long things like movies or baseball 0:16:55.800 --> 0:16:59.080 games went for VHS, and eventually it won and made 0:16:59.200 --> 0:16:59.720 Beta Max. 0:17:00.120 --> 0:17:00.280 Late. 0:17:00.360 --> 0:17:03.880 Patsy, you must have had your own dedicated VHS cassette, 0:17:03.920 --> 0:17:06.200 those blank ones, you remember when you'd write on the spine, 0:17:06.359 --> 0:17:10.639 Patsy's Patsy's videotape, do not record over? Yeah, And he 0:17:10.680 --> 0:17:13.800 could pull these taps over out And then I remember 0:17:13.800 --> 0:17:15.120 what used to do with my sister's I'd worked out 0:17:15.119 --> 0:17:17.320 if you celebrate them over you could start. I deliberately 0:17:17.680 --> 0:17:20.480 record over her favorite TV shows just to annoy my 0:17:20.520 --> 0:17:23.360 younger sister. But I do remember those old video cassettes. 0:17:23.359 --> 0:17:26.680 So I've been asking, did anyone have a Beta Max Adrian? 0:17:27.960 --> 0:17:32.560 Yes, good morning, Christian be to Max. Yes. My dad 0:17:32.640 --> 0:17:34.320 was a bit of a take head back in the day, 0:17:34.520 --> 0:17:38.000 and when the videos came out, he did a bit 0:17:38.040 --> 0:17:41.760 of an investigation, decided Sony Beta Max was the more 0:17:41.800 --> 0:17:45.240 superior product to have, so brought home of Beta Max. 0:17:45.400 --> 0:17:47.919 This is incredible, it's the future. It's the future. I've 0:17:47.920 --> 0:17:49.760 looked into it in What You Know and then when 0:17:49.800 --> 0:17:53.080 those when we've seen those magazines what High Finds magazine 0:17:53.080 --> 0:17:54.679 and stuff like that. But he did his research, and 0:17:54.720 --> 0:17:56.919 so what happened did you find? Bit by bit? No 0:17:56.960 --> 0:17:58.639 one came round to yours to watch anything. 0:18:00.080 --> 0:18:03.000 We do have quite a lot of Beta Max tapes 0:18:03.040 --> 0:18:06.159 because dad was a mad movie buff. But after a 0:18:06.200 --> 0:18:08.439 period of time he realized that he couldn't get the 0:18:08.480 --> 0:18:10.600 movies he wanted, so he had to go to VHS 0:18:11.040 --> 0:18:13.600 and get my twelve year old brother at the time 0:18:13.760 --> 0:18:14.640 to set it up. 0:18:15.680 --> 0:18:18.240
