WEBVTT - MINI: Extreme Huff

0:00:00.440 --> 0:00:00.800
<v Speaker 1>Melbourne.

0:00:01.520 --> 0:00:04.760
<v Speaker 2>Welcome to the Christian No Come On Show podcast.

0:00:04.960 --> 0:00:08.399
<v Speaker 3>Jack's got an amazing story. I would file this under

0:00:08.480 --> 0:00:12.080
<v Speaker 3>extreme huffing. We've all done something in a hulf.

0:00:12.160 --> 0:00:14.360
<v Speaker 4>We get into huffs. Everybody gets into huffs.

0:00:14.360 --> 0:00:16.759
<v Speaker 3>But this is something you need to do, something to

0:00:16.880 --> 0:00:19.759
<v Speaker 3>just charge the huffing energy, you know, to break up

0:00:19.800 --> 0:00:20.760
<v Speaker 3>the huff that you're in.

0:00:20.880 --> 0:00:23.640
<v Speaker 5>You're both in. Everyone has a different way to process it.

0:00:23.720 --> 0:00:26.000
<v Speaker 4>But get this, this will be hard to beat. My

0:00:26.120 --> 0:00:30.280
<v Speaker 4>friend has an argument with his partner and leaves the house.

0:00:30.320 --> 0:00:32.920
<v Speaker 4>Wants to cool off after he's hulf so he goes

0:00:32.920 --> 0:00:36.760
<v Speaker 4>through a drive ends up driving to Sydney from Melbourne.

0:00:36.960 --> 0:00:40.240
<v Speaker 4>From Melbourne, ends up driving to Sydney. By that time,

0:00:40.360 --> 0:00:42.640
<v Speaker 4>his huff is cooled a bit. He goes through a

0:00:42.720 --> 0:00:46.320
<v Speaker 4>Maca's drive through and then comes back to Melbourne. One

0:00:46.400 --> 0:00:47.559
<v Speaker 4>big round trip.

0:00:48.040 --> 0:00:49.440
<v Speaker 5>Or twelve hours easily.

0:00:49.479 --> 0:00:52.960
<v Speaker 4>Isn't it more ten hours to Sydney one way?

0:00:53.080 --> 0:00:57.320
<v Speaker 5>Of course, it's about twenty hour. That's a day half

0:00:57.480 --> 0:00:58.680
<v Speaker 5>a long half.

0:00:58.800 --> 0:00:59.960
<v Speaker 4>That's a very long hlf.

0:01:00.280 --> 0:01:02.000
<v Speaker 3>You must have done stuff in a half, pat Sy,

0:01:02.040 --> 0:01:03.800
<v Speaker 3>I've gone shopping once and a half that we didn't

0:01:03.840 --> 0:01:04.679
<v Speaker 3>even need to go shopping.

0:01:04.760 --> 0:01:07.280
<v Speaker 5>I just went to huff around the supermarket.

0:01:07.680 --> 0:01:09.120
<v Speaker 4>But at least that's a helpful huff.

0:01:09.959 --> 0:01:12.320
<v Speaker 5>They're not angry shop and only came up with three bits.

0:01:12.319 --> 0:01:15.800
<v Speaker 3>Actually, my brain wasn't working right, Caitlin, What have you done?

0:01:15.800 --> 0:01:16.240
<v Speaker 5>In a huff?

0:01:16.920 --> 0:01:18.800
<v Speaker 4>I drove to Geelong and.

0:01:20.600 --> 0:01:22.400
<v Speaker 5>Just took off, just took off.

0:01:22.480 --> 0:01:22.640
<v Speaker 6>Yep.

0:01:22.760 --> 0:01:24.280
<v Speaker 4>I had a fight and I got in the car

0:01:24.400 --> 0:01:25.680
<v Speaker 4>and I just drove to Geelong.

0:01:26.440 --> 0:01:28.240
<v Speaker 5>What did you do in Geelong? Just half around?

0:01:28.440 --> 0:01:29.800
<v Speaker 2>I washed my car.

0:01:31.400 --> 0:01:32.520
<v Speaker 1>And walked along there.

0:01:35.000 --> 0:01:38.039
<v Speaker 3>It's awful because at some point the half goes, but

0:01:38.080 --> 0:01:40.160
<v Speaker 3>you're so committed you don't want to look foolish to

0:01:40.319 --> 0:01:42.720
<v Speaker 3>you like, I know, she's just a.

0:01:42.640 --> 0:01:44.759
<v Speaker 5>Really nice day. Actually used to hang out by myself.

0:01:44.840 --> 0:01:46.840
<v Speaker 5>You know, it wasn't the half wasn't it wasn't doing

0:01:46.840 --> 0:01:48.360
<v Speaker 5>it in a half? All right, So we want to

0:01:48.400 --> 0:01:50.120
<v Speaker 5>know what did you do in a half? This morning

0:01:50.240 --> 0:01:51.080

0:01:51.840 --> 0:01:54.640
<v Speaker 2>Christian Connell's show podcast.

0:01:54.880 --> 0:01:57.480
<v Speaker 3>Asking you what did you do in a half? Tack's

0:01:57.520 --> 0:02:01.040
<v Speaker 3>friend drove to Sydney. Didn't need to just after a

0:02:01.040 --> 0:02:03.880
<v Speaker 3>big argument, trying cool down. Obviously cool down probably about

0:02:03.880 --> 0:02:06.680
<v Speaker 3>the first hour into a heavy road trip.

0:02:06.720 --> 0:02:08.280
<v Speaker 4>But once you're on that highway.

0:02:08.120 --> 0:02:12.079
<v Speaker 3>Committed, committed to a pointless gesture, and then I had

0:02:12.080 --> 0:02:14.760
<v Speaker 3>a Maca's there and then drove the long, long, long

0:02:14.840 --> 0:02:18.000

<v Speaker 5>I reckon, I've like driven around the block and then

0:06:19.240 --> 0:06:20.919
<v Speaker 5>just lost patience, so gone home again.

0:06:21.160 --> 0:06:23.479
<v Speaker 3>I think it's more a volcanic eruption. Is how my

0:06:23.520 --> 0:06:25.800
<v Speaker 3>wife processes stuff, and then I'm the one with sort

0:06:25.800 --> 0:06:30.040
<v Speaker 3>of scolding months on the hot laughter. All right, let's

0:06:30.080 --> 0:06:34.400

<v Speaker 6>Oh? Okay, so I was eighteen living at home, had

0:06:40.040 --> 0:06:42.359
<v Speaker 6>hulf with my mother. I don't even remember what it

0:06:42.440 --> 0:06:47.920
<v Speaker 6>was about.

0:06:45.400 --> 0:06:46.200
<v Speaker 5>The worst huffs to.

0:06:46.200 --> 0:06:48.800
<v Speaker 6>Get into my huff? Yeah, So I don't remember what

0:06:48.800 --> 0:06:50.719
<v Speaker 6>it was about, but I thought, okay, well, you know,

0:06:50.720 --> 0:06:52.320
<v Speaker 6>maybe I'll just have a little walk around. This is

0:06:52.400 --> 0:06:54.320
<v Speaker 6>up and tap gipps Land. I thought, okay, I'll walk

0:06:54.360 --> 0:06:55.880
<v Speaker 6>around and I hang out with the horse and the

0:06:55.920 --> 0:06:58.240
<v Speaker 6>dog calm down. And she said, I've got people coming

0:06:58.240 --> 0:07:00.320
<v Speaker 6>over on you sulking around. God was like, I or

0:07:00.360 --> 0:07:04.120
<v Speaker 6>go somewhere else, so I was, so I just immediately

0:07:04.160 --> 0:07:06.599
<v Speaker 6>went for a walk. I'm wearing my I got my

0:07:06.640 --> 0:07:10.560
<v Speaker 6>single and my shorts and tongues on, nothing else. It's

0:07:10.600 --> 0:07:12.280
<v Speaker 6>about seven o'clock the day I save him, so it's

0:07:12.280 --> 0:07:14.640
<v Speaker 6>still bright and I just walked. I thought, all right,

0:07:14.680 --> 0:07:16.480
<v Speaker 6>I'll just walk out to like, you know, past the

0:07:16.600 --> 0:07:18.840
<v Speaker 6>drive on. You know, we'll get to the road and

0:07:18.880 --> 0:07:21.640
<v Speaker 6>then we'll turn around. All be good. But when I

0:07:21.680 --> 0:07:28.600
<v Speaker 6>got there, I was like, I'm still angry. So I thought, hey,

0:07:28.640 --> 0:07:30.640
<v Speaker 6>I can't stay on the radio. I thought, all right,

0:07:30.640 --> 0:07:34.120
<v Speaker 6>well we'll just keep walking then, so I kept walking.

0:07:34.160 --> 0:07:36.320
<v Speaker 6>I walked to I walked to the next town. I

0:07:36.360 --> 0:07:38.720
<v Speaker 6>was in Langling. So I walked in Niora, which I

0:07:38.720 --> 0:07:40.800
<v Speaker 6>would later find out as twelve k away.

0:07:42.400 --> 0:07:49.840
<v Speaker 3>Pilgrimage until the Sick looking for Oh yeah.

0:07:49.720 --> 0:07:53.400
<v Speaker 6>It was a lot of self reflection or just exhaustion.

0:07:53.520 --> 0:07:53.880
<v Speaker 6>I don't know.

0:07:54.440 --> 0:07:56.080
<v Speaker 4>Anyway, how long was your round trip?

0:07:56.280 --> 0:07:59.160
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, so I walked at about seven and I think

0:07:59.360 --> 0:08:04.080
<v Speaker 6>I got back about ten or ten thirty. Now, I'll

0:08:04.080 --> 0:08:06.600
<v Speaker 6>just remind you there's no foot palls or anything. That's

0:08:06.600 --> 0:08:12.680
<v Speaker 6>just sort of road and bush right there. Anyway, So anyways,

0:08:14.640 --> 0:08:16.400
<v Speaker 6>when I got when I got to the next town,

0:08:17.040 --> 0:08:19.000
<v Speaker 6>it was done to get dark, and I was thinking, oh,

0:08:19.040 --> 0:08:22.520
<v Speaker 6>I'm going to get back home. I anyway ended up

0:08:22.520 --> 0:08:25.240
<v Speaker 6>getting pitch black and cold, and then I didn't have

0:08:25.320 --> 0:08:29.320
<v Speaker 6>anything on me right right, Uh So I pretty much

0:08:29.320 --> 0:08:32.319
<v Speaker 6>had to rely on the lights of passing cars and

0:08:32.440 --> 0:08:34.520
<v Speaker 6>the sense of a dead animal that I had walked

0:08:34.880 --> 0:08:43.080
<v Speaker 6>previously over. No, No, it was awesome, I felt. I

0:08:43.120 --> 0:08:45.520
<v Speaker 6>thought it was the coolest thing. Like I was getting

0:08:45.559 --> 0:08:47.640
<v Speaker 6>back and I'm like, oh, geez, how much longer I

0:08:47.679 --> 0:08:50.640
<v Speaker 6>can't see anything? And then I'm like, oh, it stinks.

0:08:50.640 --> 0:08:53.079
<v Speaker 6>I'm like, wait a minute, that's the same stink that's

0:08:53.080 --> 0:08:59.040
<v Speaker 6>stunk before I'm getting closer to home. So I got

0:08:59.040 --> 0:09:03.199
<v Speaker 6>home and we both didn't really have anything to say.

0:09:03.400 --> 0:09:04.760
<v Speaker 6>I was just she was just like, you might want

0:09:04.760 --> 0:09:06.600
<v Speaker 6>to have a shower, because I looked down and like

0:09:08.360 --> 0:09:14.520
<v Speaker 6>and everything all over my leg like moccasons and probably

0:09:15.559 --> 0:09:17.559
<v Speaker 6>at the back of my shoulder was numb as well,

0:09:17.600 --> 0:09:21.080
<v Speaker 6>and the cold was just awful. So yeah, he's half

0:09:21.200 --> 0:09:21.400
<v Speaker 6>like that.

0:09:22.880 --> 0:09:23.560
<v Speaker 4>That's great.

0:09:24.000 --> 0:09:27.320
