Speaker 1: Jersey and Amanda jam Nation. Well, it's one of Australia's

00:00:04,920 --> 00:00:08,200
Speaker 1: most famous songs, most emotional songs, this one how to

00:00:08,200 --> 00:00:13,960
Speaker 1: make Play? Who was going to make the graving? I

Speaker 1: get mousie every time I hear that great song? What

5
00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:20,680
Speaker 1: about it? Well? What about it? The song, as we know,

6
00:00:21,280 --> 00:00:23,920
Speaker 1: is about Joe. He's writing, he's in prison and he's

7
00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 1: writing a letter to his family just before Christmas. Hello, damn,

8
00:00:29,360 --> 00:00:36,000
Speaker 1: it's Joe here. I hope you're keeping well. So twenty

9
00:00:36,000 --> 00:00:37,920
Speaker 1: first of the Sami Areena, last bell. If he gets

10
00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:40,560
Speaker 1: good behavior, he'll be out of there by well. Yesterday,

11
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:46,680
Speaker 1: in the Melbourne newspaper The Age, Paul Kelly posted a

12
00:00:46,720 --> 00:00:50,560
Speaker 1: death notice for Joe, the incarcerated narrator of that very song,

13
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:53,920
Speaker 1: Nestled on page thirty three. The obituary says Joe died

14
00:00:53,960 --> 00:00:56,840
Speaker 1: of sudden misadventure. Well, I read you the obitue. Please,

15
00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:00,680
Speaker 1: with great sorrow, we announced the death of Joe by

16
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:04,600
Speaker 1: sudden misadventure? Was he still in prison moving? He was

17
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:06,920
Speaker 1: out of there by July. But he's an airdo will

18
00:01:06,959 --> 00:01:09,440
Speaker 1: so I would say he's probably a repeat offender. Toy

19
00:01:09,520 --> 00:01:13,120
Speaker 1: probably rhymes with that he did something or because of

20
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:17,760
Speaker 1: Victoria's lax bailed too, esting around with a machete gag

21
00:01:18,280 --> 00:01:21,640
Speaker 1: sure probably chopped off his own head with a machete anyway,

22
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:24,960
Speaker 1: death by sudden misadventure. Those other words were filled in
