<v Speaker 1>go here? Lex, Good morning.

0:03:02.400 --> 0:03:07.600
<v Speaker 2>Lex, good morning. My weakest claim to say, which I

0:03:07.639 --> 0:03:11.280
<v Speaker 2>am desperately hoping is golden kettle worthy, is that I

0:03:11.520 --> 0:03:15.320
<v Speaker 2>had Prince come into the Uptown theater I was working

0:03:15.360 --> 0:03:17.799
<v Speaker 2>at in Minneapolis as a teenager, and he rented out

0:03:17.840 --> 0:03:20.240
<v Speaker 2>the whole cinema so he could watch more holland Drive

0:03:20.320 --> 0:03:23.239
<v Speaker 2>by himself without the pedestrians around him.

0:03:23.600 --> 0:03:25.760
<v Speaker 1>This is a good of course, he's from. I was

0:03:26.520 --> 0:03:28.799
<v Speaker 1>Pacer Parkers as well. He hide out and just so

0:03:28.840 --> 0:03:31.000
<v Speaker 1>he can watch it by himself, mar hulland Drive.

0:03:31.560 --> 0:03:33.560
<v Speaker 2>Just by himself, while he had his like posse of

0:03:33.600 --> 0:03:34.359
<v Speaker 2>people with him.

0:03:34.480 --> 0:03:38.600
<v Speaker 1>Yep. And he came power generation there or the machinery wrestler.

0:03:38.840 --> 0:03:41.120
<v Speaker 2>And yet about a half a dozen like people in

0:03:41.200 --> 0:03:43.720
<v Speaker 2>a bodyguard person, and we had to block the doors

0:03:43.760 --> 0:03:45.920
<v Speaker 2>and nobody else could go in and bother them while

0:03:45.920 --> 0:03:52.240
<v Speaker 2>they were watching the movie. I corn and candy and yeah.

0:03:51.720 --> 0:03:53.640
<v Speaker 4>Sod, like, is there way to hire out the whole Cinnemore?

0:03:53.680 --> 0:03:55.840
<v Speaker 4>Did he literally buy every ticket, every.

0:03:55.640 --> 0:03:58.200
<v Speaker 2>Scene, every ticket like he had. I didn't get to talk.

0:03:58.360 --> 0:04:01.800
<v Speaker 1>I was pretty little more rock sauce behaving. That is

0:04:01.960 --> 0:04:04.000
<v Speaker 1>what a great story he gave you as well.

0:04:05.120 --> 0:04:08.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, like we weren't allowed to talk to him. His bodyguard,

0:04:08.120 --> 0:04:10.640
<v Speaker 2>he was standing behind his bodyguard, and his bodyguard ordered

0:04:10.640 --> 0:04:12.360
<v Speaker 2>all the tickets, and he said, we want to buy it.

0:04:14.400 --> 0:04:14.560
<v Speaker 7>Him.

0:04:14.760 --> 0:04:16.640
<v Speaker 4>And did he do you know if he ate popcorn

0:04:16.720 --> 0:04:18.200
<v Speaker 4>chock tops, he's gonna have popcorns.

0:04:18.800 --> 0:04:22.200
<v Speaker 2>We have a candy called snow caps, which are like

0:04:22.320 --> 0:04:25.760
<v Speaker 2>little chocolates covering the hundreds of thousand sort of. So

0:04:25.839 --> 0:04:29.680
<v Speaker 2>he got those and he got a big popcorn, and yeah,

0:04:29.760 --> 0:04:32.000
<v Speaker 2>and he put his he put his he put his

0:04:32.040 --> 0:04:33.560
<v Speaker 2>snow caps into his popcorn.

0:04:35.200 --> 0:04:37.359
<v Speaker 1>And tell me this right, because Prince he said he

0:04:37.480 --> 0:04:39.680
<v Speaker 1>was a little fellow, even in those high heel boots.

0:04:39.680 --> 0:04:41.080
<v Speaker 1>Did he ask one of those little booster seats?

0:04:44.720 --> 0:04:45.280
<v Speaker 2>Sure if.

0:04:47.200 --> 0:04:54.360
<v Speaker 1>So, don't forget that booster seat. Lex, Lex, you give

0:04:56.760 --> 0:04:57.880
<v Speaker 1>last golden kettle.

<v Speaker 1>thank you, well done.

0:05:09.080 --> 0:05:11.960
<v Speaker 9>You're listening to the Christian Carls Show podcast.

0:05:12.680 --> 0:05:20.360
<v Speaker 8>Damn oh hello, hi us. My weakest claim to fame

0:05:20.720 --> 0:05:24.599
<v Speaker 8>is that my parents in the nineteen sixties had Skippy

0:05:24.640 --> 0:05:28.120
<v Speaker 8>the Kangaroo in there having a cup of tea. And

0:05:28.160 --> 0:05:31.400
<v Speaker 8>it was actually that they took photos of it in

0:05:31.920 --> 0:05:36.920
<v Speaker 8>the Sun paper. Yeah, so that was a very long

0:05:36.960 --> 0:05:38.760
<v Speaker 8>time ago, because I'm getting very old.

0:05:39.839 --> 0:05:43.120
<v Speaker 1>Skippy's really old. I mean he's act I forget about

0:05:43.120 --> 0:05:43.320
<v Speaker 1>you do.

0:05:43.800 --> 0:05:46.000
<v Speaker 4>Where was he at your own dad's house?

0:05:46.120 --> 0:05:48.919
<v Speaker 3>Was he on tour a No, hotel in Richmond?

0:05:48.960 --> 0:05:50.880
<v Speaker 8>It was like hotel in Richmond?

0:05:51.040 --> 0:05:52.960
<v Speaker 1>Were was this in there with some ladies or what

0:05:53.000 --> 0:05:53.440
<v Speaker 1>was going on?

0:05:54.160 --> 0:05:57.279
<v Speaker 8>They just went into a publicity stunt because my parents

0:05:57.720 --> 0:06:00.240
<v Speaker 8>because Channel nine used to be around the corner, so

0:06:00.480 --> 0:06:02.359
<v Speaker 8>Channel nine used to come in quite.

0:06:02.160 --> 0:06:02.800
<v Speaker 1>A bit Skippy.

0:06:05.520 --> 0:06:07.480
<v Speaker 4>I think what happened is the show got canceled and.

0:06:07.440 --> 0:06:15.400
<v Speaker 1>Heng to see it, don't you drinking all day every day? Yeah?

0:06:15.680 --> 0:06:21.359

0:06:23.120 --> 0:06:24.320
<v Speaker 8>Okay, thank you, buye.

0:06:25.000 --> 0:06:26.600
<v Speaker 1>Let's go to we got here. Matt.

0:06:26.640 --> 0:06:28.520
<v Speaker 3>Good morning, Matt, Good mornings.

0:06:28.680 --> 0:06:28.960
<v Speaker 7>How are you.

0:06:29.120 --> 0:06:30.920
<v Speaker 1>I'm good, Matt. Welcome to the show. So what's your

0:06:30.960 --> 0:06:31.960
<v Speaker 1>week claim to fame?

0:06:32.440 --> 0:06:34.640
<v Speaker 3>Thank you? My week claim to fame is that my

0:06:34.720 --> 0:06:38.000
<v Speaker 3>wife's great granddad invented the Chico roll out in Bendigo.

0:06:38.400 --> 0:06:41.040
<v Speaker 1>This is strong. It's actually very strong.

0:06:42.360 --> 0:06:45.960
<v Speaker 3>And I think his name was Frank mcin Crowe. And

0:06:46.200 --> 0:06:48.480
<v Speaker 3>I think the story behind it is he was in

0:06:48.520 --> 0:06:52.080
<v Speaker 3>Asia and found this nice kind of similar thing to

0:06:52.080 --> 0:06:54.400
<v Speaker 3>the Chico role. I couldn't find it over here in Australia,

0:06:54.480 --> 0:06:55.440
<v Speaker 3>so he's made it himself.

0:06:56.480 --> 0:06:59.839
<v Speaker 1>Wow. That's incredible, Matt. Thank you very much your story.

0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:00.479
<v Speaker 1>Take care.

0:07:00.520 --> 0:07:00.839

0:07:10.360 --> 0:07:13.640
<v Speaker 6>My granddad Valley Olivier John's.

0:07:13.320 --> 0:07:15.920
<v Speaker 2>Hat in Astonville.

0:07:16.640 --> 0:07:20.000

<v Speaker 2>up here iron boy Jack.

0:07:30.680 --> 0:07:32.160
<v Speaker 1>They're going to speak a bit clear if he's on

0:07:32.200 --> 0:07:35.040
<v Speaker 1>the radio. But Jack, thank you very much for telling

0:07:35.080 --> 0:07:36.440
<v Speaker 1>the story. That was incredible.

0:07:40.440 --> 0:07:41.720
<v Speaker 2>It was very nervous here.

0:07:43.120 --> 0:07:45.560

<v Speaker 1>Who are we going? Marcus? Good morning Radio DJ and everybody.

0:07:56.520 --> 0:08:00.000
<v Speaker 1>I've done him a favor, Marcus, good morning, Yes.

0:08:00.040 --> 0:08:03.240
<v Speaker 6>Morning Christian. My weakest claim to fame was that in

0:08:03.280 --> 0:08:05.520
<v Speaker 6>the mid nineties I worked in a video store with

0:08:05.560 --> 0:08:08.480
<v Speaker 6>my brother and we served Geene Simmons from Kiss who

0:08:08.480 --> 0:08:09.560
<v Speaker 6>never returned his videos.

0:08:10.200 --> 0:08:13.440
<v Speaker 1>That man, come on, Jean, they're beyond late and please

0:08:13.520 --> 0:08:14.760
<v Speaker 1>rewind who.

0:08:14.600 --> 0:08:16.560
<v Speaker 4>Knows he's probably doing this in every city in the world.

0:08:16.640 --> 0:08:19.120
<v Speaker 1>Yes, what a great scam when you're on tour, go

0:08:19.160 --> 0:08:20.800
<v Speaker 1>and get all those movies, not bring them back.

0:08:20.840 --> 0:08:24.880
<v Speaker 7>Predator Commando absolutely and back then as well, I used

0:08:24.880 --> 0:08:28.440
<v Speaker 7>to accumulate lately for every days his videos will return late,

0:08:28.480 --> 0:08:30.560
<v Speaker 7>and I ended up writing up his late seas to

0:08:30.600 --> 0:08:32.600
<v Speaker 7>the value of around twenty grand so.

0:08:33.120 --> 0:08:35.760
<v Speaker 6>Which is about five years later when the store closed down.

0:08:36.240 --> 0:08:38.240
<v Speaker 1>Maybe that's why this year is the last ever kiss

0:08:38.280 --> 0:08:39.840
<v Speaker 1>cruise is track.

0:08:39.679 --> 0:08:43.360
