1
00:00:00,560 --> 00:00:04,280
Speaker 1: Christ Yeah, welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell show podcast.

2
00:00:04,640 --> 00:00:06,400
Speaker 2: I know, Jackie boy, you've got a tattoo. I have

3
00:00:06,440 --> 00:00:08,879
Speaker 2: a tattoo. Perhaps you ever thought about getting a tattoo.

4
00:00:08,920 --> 00:00:09,119
Speaker 3: I have.

5
00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:14,000
Speaker 1: Actually I thought I would like to get the initials

6
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:17,800
Speaker 1: of Chris Audrey and I are somehow intertwined. But where

7
00:00:18,040 --> 00:00:20,040
Speaker 1: the placement of where it was? Always?

8
00:00:20,400 --> 00:00:22,440
Speaker 2: Would you want it somewhere to screete that only you

9
00:00:22,480 --> 00:00:24,560
Speaker 2: can see that you can have the option of covering up.

10
00:00:24,800 --> 00:00:26,880
Speaker 1: I thought, like on my wrist or somewhere. But I want, like,

11
00:00:27,040 --> 00:00:30,080
Speaker 1: I need to find someone that does really beautiful cursive

12
00:00:30,600 --> 00:00:32,600
Speaker 1: sort of tattooing, like a specialist in that.

13
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:34,360
Speaker 2: I back my handwriting.

14
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:39,800
Speaker 1: No thanks, No, I wouldn't do Christians that big sharpie pen.

15
00:00:42,159 --> 00:00:45,320
Speaker 2: My tattoo is a word patsy that I had translated

16
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,000
Speaker 2: into Sanskrit, which is the oldest language. And then it's

17
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:51,800
Speaker 2: in a circle so people can't sit. But I see

18
00:00:51,800 --> 00:00:54,880
Speaker 2: what it is, and it drives people nuts because of that.

19
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:57,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, I asked you that once. You never told me.

20
00:00:57,880 --> 00:01:01,280
Speaker 2: Because it's book. It's a message to me. I didn't

21
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:02,880
Speaker 2: even put it in the book, by the way, it's

22
00:01:02,920 --> 00:01:06,240
Speaker 2: a message to me in there. I was on the

23
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:10,000
Speaker 2: flight comeback from Byron on Saturday, and there was a

24
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:11,480
Speaker 2: guy on the plane who went had a two at

25
00:01:11,480 --> 00:01:12,920
Speaker 2: the back of his arm. Right, this goes in his

26
00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:14,760
Speaker 2: mid thirties, right, so he's not a kid, but it

27
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:19,360
Speaker 2: was like a four or five inch question mark the riddler. Yeah,

28
00:01:19,800 --> 00:01:24,800
Speaker 2: he's on my flight jet stuck. By the way, people

29
00:01:24,880 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 2: with overhead lockers, it's the most stressful thing about flying out,

30
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:32,440
Speaker 2: isn't it. People? Just the slamming and the bigger I

31
00:01:32,440 --> 00:01:34,920
Speaker 2: mean the size. Now, what people bring on that they

32
00:01:34,920 --> 00:01:37,160
Speaker 2: think is etcetera. As an overhead they've got a big

33
00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:40,440
Speaker 2: bag anyway. Then they bring on that they're now expanding,

34
00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:43,120
Speaker 2: aren't they where they've worked out bag makers how to

35
00:01:43,319 --> 00:01:47,160
Speaker 2: feel every cubic centimeter of that that you know slot

36
00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,680
Speaker 2: you meant to put the bag into. It's like people

37
00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:52,640
Speaker 2: bringing on what can scribe was a small fridge, and

38
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:54,720
Speaker 2: then they start humping your head as they try and

39
00:01:54,800 --> 00:01:57,280
Speaker 2: excuse me, sorry, excuse me, as you're trying to slam

40
00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:58,760
Speaker 2: it in. And I hate it. I don't know why

41
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 2: I don't own my headlocker. I'm just it's just about me.

42
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:03,560
Speaker 2: I can't stand it if someone from a couple of

43
00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:10,160
Speaker 2: seats away comes downside. This is how waterful. It's all

44
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:12,519
Speaker 2: territorial of life? Is that? Why does it bother me?

45
00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:19,400
Speaker 2: But it really irritates me anyway. I want to know today,

46
00:02:19,800 --> 00:02:22,600
Speaker 2: if you've got an unusual or unique tattoo, what does

47
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:24,840
Speaker 2: that actually mean? So did you ask the question mark

48
00:02:24,880 --> 00:02:27,120
Speaker 2: guy what it meant? No, because a couple of days

49
00:02:27,120 --> 00:02:29,840
Speaker 2: before that, I saw a girl serving me lunch, right,

50
00:02:30,080 --> 00:02:32,720
Speaker 2: and she had these beautiful tattoos right. They were really

51
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:35,760
Speaker 2: really ornate. I said, those are beautiful tattoos. What flowers

52
00:02:35,800 --> 00:02:38,320
Speaker 2: are those? Because they were like long stemmed flowers. I

53
00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:40,280
Speaker 2: couldn't work out what it was, and I thought this

54
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:42,080
Speaker 2: would be a nice question to ask somebody. And I

55
00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 2: love really good original tattoos. She goes, Oh, my brother

56
00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:48,120
Speaker 2: died Sunday last year. It was taken from a photo

57
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:50,680
Speaker 2: of the poppies on his grave, and I could see

58
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:53,800
Speaker 2: that it was still very much alive in her the grief.

59
00:02:53,880 --> 00:02:55,880
Speaker 2: She had tears and eyes. So we don't talk about it.

60
00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,280
Speaker 2: For about half an hour she actually she was serving me.

61
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:00,120
Speaker 2: I bought a drink. She sat down and talked, we

62
00:03:00,120 --> 00:03:01,919
Speaker 2: are brothers. All that we actually had a really really

63
00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 2: nice conversation, Bob. But I was so wary of the

64
00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,160
Speaker 2: guy with the with the question mark whether it's about life.

65
00:03:08,600 --> 00:03:12,160
Speaker 2: You know how, emotions are very high. I was triggering

66
00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,840
Speaker 2: about the guy from three seats and headed me using

67
00:03:14,840 --> 00:03:16,919
Speaker 2: my overhead locker space. So there was a lot going

68
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:18,600
Speaker 2: on there. So today I want to know what does

69
00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:24,120
Speaker 2: your tattoo mean? This is the Christian O'Connell show podcast,

70
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:27,080
Speaker 2: What does your tattoo mean? So a guy on the

71
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:29,880
Speaker 2: plane on Saturday in a giant question mark on the

72
00:03:29,919 --> 00:03:32,680
Speaker 2: back of his left arm. Christian, I have a here

73
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:37,320
Speaker 2: broccolny florette on my bum cheek. They got it tattooed

74
00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:39,640
Speaker 2: on a night out to remind me to eat health here.

75
00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:47,840
Speaker 2: But it doesn't work because I can't see you.

76
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 3: Probably one hundred beers halfway through combabit.

77
00:03:51,080 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 2: I need to eat better. The permanent reminder to do somewhere,

78
00:03:56,680 --> 00:04:00,960
Speaker 2: somewhere completely out of sight on your bum cheek, a

79
00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:05,520
Speaker 2: broccany florette. All right, let's say some calls, then what

80
00:04:05,560 --> 00:04:08,880
Speaker 2: does your tattoo mean? Nine four one, one oh four three?

81
00:04:08,920 --> 00:04:12,000
Speaker 3: Good morning, Catherine, Good morning, how you're doing.

82
00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:14,080
Speaker 2: We're good, Katherine. I hope you're well as well. So

83
00:04:14,160 --> 00:04:14,960
Speaker 2: what is your tattoo?

84
00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:15,080
Speaker 3: Men?

85
00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:15,360
Speaker 4: Thank you.

86
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:19,640
Speaker 3: It's a little bit different. I have got my eyebrows tattooed.

87
00:04:20,240 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 3: And what it means is I was an overplucker of

88
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:24,839
Speaker 3: the seventies and eighties, and they didn't bother to come

89
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:25,839
Speaker 3: back when I stopped.

90
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:28,640
Speaker 2: I didn't know that was the thing to be an overplucker.

91
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 2: I was an overplucker of the seventies. You wild charge lessens.

92
00:04:32,839 --> 00:04:35,440
Speaker 3: All you young women out there, do not do not.

93
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:36,120
Speaker 4: Do what I do.

94
00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:37,320
Speaker 3: Do not be an overplucker.

95
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:39,520
Speaker 2: I thought they would just grow back like a farmer scape.

96
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:40,480
Speaker 1: Don't grow back.

97
00:04:40,839 --> 00:04:41,080
Speaker 4: They do.

98
00:04:41,520 --> 00:04:43,479
Speaker 1: And then you get older and all your hormones mean

99
00:04:43,560 --> 00:04:45,760
Speaker 1: you don't get as much. You get here in places

100
00:04:45,800 --> 00:04:48,800
Speaker 1: you don't want here, and not here where you want here.

101
00:04:48,839 --> 00:04:50,680
Speaker 3: If that means so you've got I'm hearing you.

102
00:04:50,960 --> 00:04:54,000
Speaker 2: So you've got now permanent tattoo eyebrows.

103
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,520
Speaker 3: Yes, And I get lots of compliments. And that's why

104
00:04:57,560 --> 00:04:59,800
Speaker 3: I say to people, do not overpluck, otherwise you'll end

105
00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:02,560
Speaker 3: up like me. But they are very nice, right.

106
00:05:02,760 --> 00:05:04,560
Speaker 2: All right, captain, thank you very much. She called, have

Speaker 4: the Beatles song Blackbirds. And I got it from my

113
00:05:20,200 --> 00:05:22,760
Speaker 4: mum who passed away about eight years ago, and before

114
00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:25,000
Speaker 4: she died, she was she was in the seventies. She

115
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:27,839
Speaker 4: desperbably wanted a tattoo, and I remember saying, Nold, you

116
00:05:27,839 --> 00:05:31,880
Speaker 4: can't get one. So yeah, so that's why I got one.

117
00:05:32,080 --> 00:05:34,400

Speaker 5: Morning crew? I have on my wrist a tattoo of

122
00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,520
Speaker 5: a stone ye and a sort of statuette of a

123
00:05:49,560 --> 00:05:53,560
Speaker 5: stone wine. And it's inspired by a heavy metal song

124
00:05:53,640 --> 00:05:59,520
Speaker 5: called the Bosphorus Freezes Over. It's a sort of put

125
00:05:59,600 --> 00:06:02,240
Speaker 5: us in five sort of orchestral kind of music. And

126
00:06:02,320 --> 00:06:05,360
Speaker 5: what it means is it's a symbol to as a

127
00:06:05,360 --> 00:06:07,960
Speaker 5: bit of a monument or tribute to the person you

128
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,040
Speaker 5: could have been or things that had to be worst behind,

129
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,919
Speaker 5: and as a bit of a market of encouragement to

130

Speaker 2: you meant to be. Yeah, that's amazing, Nick, thank you

135
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:31,240
Speaker 2: very much for sharing that with us. Let's go to Counting.

136
00:06:31,240 --> 00:06:32,000
Speaker 2: Come morning, Counting.

137
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:34,560
Speaker 6: Good morning, how's everybody, Yeah.

138
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 2: We're good and welcome to the show. What is your tattoo?

139
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:44,080
Speaker 6: Well, my very very first tattoo in my forties, I

140
00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:49,080
Speaker 6: was actually dedicated to my youngest Bella, who has ADHD.

141
00:06:49,720 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 6: It's actually from Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland, and it's

142
00:06:54,040 --> 00:07:00,840
Speaker 6: from the Cheshire Cat saying we're all mad here. It's

143
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:05,560
Speaker 6: actually the words and the purple and pink. So it's

144
00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,760
Speaker 6: a reminder to remember how they see the world, which

145
00:07:08,800 --> 00:07:11,960
Speaker 6: is topsy turvy, inside out, back to front, upside down

146
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:16,560
Speaker 6: and every which way, and to remind us, to remind

147
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:20,240
Speaker 6: us that for them things aren't quite right, and just

148
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:22,360
Speaker 6: to see things through their eyes.

149
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:26,080
Speaker 2: Oh that is lovely and to them things are completely right.

150
00:07:26,120 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 2: Now I've got a daughter's got ADHD as well. It's

151
00:07:28,320 --> 00:07:30,520
Speaker 2: a gift as well, but it is it's challenging at times,

152
00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:32,680
Speaker 2: but what a lovely thing to do with your mum

153
00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:35,320
Speaker 2: as a mum to do that, that's awesome encountered. Thank

154
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:36,680
Speaker 2: you very much, well done.

155
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:38,040
Speaker 6: No worries, Have a great day.

156
00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:39,520
