Speaker 1: Christ Yeah, welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell Show podcast showtime.
Speaker 2: Oh you'd be surprised, especially a boy.
Speaker 3: Sadly now our local tip has a no rummaging sign.
Speaker 4: Come in, let's give it a goir, have half a
Speaker 4: feeling and see how you feel.
Speaker 1: Christian O'Connell Shows one four Thanks.
Speaker 4: Hey coome on, It's the Christian O'Connell Show, Monday morning,
Speaker 4: five minutes past six. Good morning, Jackie boy, good to
Speaker 4: see you. Christian. Ha's he not too well today's show?
Speaker 4: Perhaps he's been on it again, you know often on Monday,
Speaker 4: isn't it you know? I think she was at some
Speaker 4: wineries on Saturday. So when she's back, she's back and
Speaker 4: we're lovely to see her and she can do the news.
Speaker 4: But me and Jackie boy today, jack how was your weekend?
Speaker 3: Yes, we got to the fireworks on Friday night, the
Speaker 3: local soccer club putting on a fireworks display. My son
Speaker 3: sadly didn't make it to eight pm when the fireworks
Speaker 3: shot off, so he missed it. Maybe next year. Why
Speaker 3: he's just too tired. We left him. We left the
Speaker 3: next door neighbor looking after him in Pianco and I
Speaker 3: went down and watched it.
Speaker 4: So hang on a minute. I thought the whole reason
Speaker 4: you were going to the fireworks was because actually your
Speaker 4: experience the wonderful wars for the eyes of an eighteen
Speaker 4: month child.
Speaker 3: Yes, that was the idea, is for him to experience
Speaker 3: his So far.
Speaker 4: You palmed off the boy to somebody else so you
Speaker 4: could You and your wife couldn'tdraw the forward.
Speaker 3: When they're tired. They're tired. There's nothing you can do.
Speaker 3: You look at six o'clock, six thirty, like he is
Speaker 3: not going to make it all.
Speaker 4: They start getting scratching that they were ready to go down. Yep.
Speaker 3: So we're trying to calm him down and keep like,
Speaker 3: if we give him less stimulus, maybe he'll make it
Speaker 3: to eight o'clock.
Speaker 4: So it's like a car when the tank goes into
Speaker 4: red and you think, I'll just slow it down and glide.
Speaker 3: Put it in neutral and go down some hills.
Speaker 4: But he couldn't drag it out.
Speaker 3: He was so he crashed out. But then we had
Speaker 3: already excited ourselves for fireworks.
Speaker 4: What were they like? Were they big ones?
Speaker 3: They were great? So these are the guys, Apparently, the
Speaker 3: rumor is they're the guys who do the Melbourne New
Speaker 3: Year's Eve display, but also do the local soccer club
Speaker 3: in the afternoon. I was worried for him because about
Speaker 3: five o'clock in the afternoon is raining sideways awful, the
Speaker 3: wind was. I saw them down the end of the
Speaker 3: park putting up these little marquees. I thought they're going
Speaker 3: to blow away. But the turnout was hugely. I guess
Speaker 3: they got four or five different soccer teams there from
Speaker 3: junior levels right up to adult levels. So there was
Speaker 3: hundreds of people there and the fireworks were amazing.
Speaker 4: So how long did they go on? For? Just like
Speaker 4: a minute?
Speaker 3: No, no, fifteen minutes?
Speaker 5: What?
Speaker 4: Yeah, that stuff costs like that, so what do you
Speaker 4: think they had some left over from that New Year?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 4: They didn't get set off on the Harbor Bridge or
Speaker 4: in Melbourne. Very good.
Speaker 3: And no matter where you see a fireworks display anywhere
Speaker 3: in the world, it's always the same, isn't it. It's
Speaker 3: like start, slow, ramp up.
Speaker 4: And then they get I don't know what this is
Speaker 4: called in the firework trade, but the one I like
Speaker 4: is where it's like right, it gets a big one,
Speaker 4: like a big round thing, and then a.
Speaker 3: Little mini one come off the side of it.
Speaker 4: You show me that. I'm like a kid again. What
Speaker 4: that must be called something? It's like the eternal son
Speaker 4: burst I called it? And what it goes?
Speaker 3: The first guy who invented that must have.
Speaker 4: Been this is a big one. I think someone first
Speaker 4: of all, just did that one. People would have gone,
Speaker 4: that's amazing. And then years later someone goes, no, wait,
Speaker 4: it's glass, it's them. And then out of those little ones.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so what don't they do it strapped many fireworks
Speaker 3: to the inside of the big one, so it goes trucks,
Speaker 3: the mini ones up in the air.
Speaker 4: I think they have timers now and delays.
Speaker 3: Are you reckon? There's a guy with the remote?
Speaker 4: Yeah? I think so. And also the other thing is
Speaker 4: did you also do this weapon goes? Ooh? That echoes
Speaker 4: of that, isn't it? What is it about the joy
Speaker 4: of a firework display? You're never Yeah, that's it. You're
Speaker 4: never too old to enjoy one.
Speaker 1: The Christian O'Connell show podcast to.
Speaker 4: Know how old with you and your wife? But my
Speaker 4: wife a highlight of the weekend minus Friday night, My
Speaker 4: wife says, Sunday. Sunday's a day of doing things. Chris,
Speaker 4: we clean on Sundays too, that's right, and I get
Speaker 4: anxious on a Saturday night.
Speaker 3: I'm like, my god, what's waiting for me?
Speaker 4: Given I've never given my time us until Sunday morning,
Speaker 4: I think otherwise she knows I'm at risk of flight,
Speaker 4: like I might just run away. Actually, so I woke
Speaker 4: up Sunday and then she was like, actually, do you
Speaker 4: know what, Chris, Today is the day we need to
Speaker 4: do X, Y and Z and one one was My
Speaker 4: job was to get my carcher out and strip away
Speaker 4: all the varnish that she made me put on the
Speaker 4: back deck two years ago. Too dark, Chris, too dark,
Speaker 4: just putting that on and stripping it prepare take it
Speaker 4: all off. So you know, when you start something, you
Speaker 4: know where as this is going to take a lot longer.
Speaker 4: I thought. Just stripping away the varnish on that wood
Speaker 4: with the jetwasher right, just to do a small section,
Speaker 4: say about one foot by one foot, took about ten minutes.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I was going to say, not an easy job, and
Speaker 3: not just that.
Speaker 4: Right, because you got to push, you gotta hold it
Speaker 4: on tracing and then listen to this guy, you gotta
Speaker 4: hold it on. My hand was getting small with the
Speaker 4: laxic acid build up in my forearms and my biceps.
Speaker 4: It took me a couple of hours, and halfway through
Speaker 4: I realized, this is today. This is all I'm going
Speaker 4: to have to show for That was sisyphus is doing
Speaker 4: this back deck. So anyway, my wife then is also
Speaker 4: getting my nettinnies, my haut to get our seventeen year
Speaker 4: old daughter or a seventeen year old daughter. She needs
Speaker 4: to tidy up as well. Now you went to your
Speaker 4: kids whore in teenage years. You come at them on
Speaker 4: a Sunday and say you need to tidy and clean
Speaker 4: the car and all these things that she promised she
Speaker 4: would do to have the advance on her pocket money.
Speaker 4: I said to my wife during the week when she said, hey, listen,
Speaker 4: if you give me pocket money early, I'll do a
Speaker 4: lot of stuff the week. Yeah, that isn't happening. Get
Speaker 4: her to do it now or it's never going to
Speaker 4: be done. So yesterday we're having a right. It was
Speaker 4: like an insurgence bat to right with someone throwing bombs
Speaker 4: you on the street. But my wife goes to me,
Speaker 4: you go up there, right, She's just slammed the door
Speaker 4: on my face and I go, It's okay. I operate
Speaker 4: from a different way. I'm kind of like a horse
Speaker 4: whisper for teenagers.
Speaker 3: Take the jet washer's defense.
Speaker 4: Start clean down her bedroom. Yes, she accused me of
Speaker 4: having I've written this down so I've not heard this before.
Speaker 4: Toxic productivity. Actually I laugh like that, Joe, that is good.
Speaker 4: I said, let me just get my phone and write
Speaker 4: that in there that. I went, wow, you put that.
Speaker 4: They bandied that toxic word around now a lot. Toxic productivity.
Speaker 3: Well, now you can put toxic in front of everything
Speaker 3: if that's If that's the case.
Speaker 4: I said, your behavior in now toxic teenager ring for you,
Speaker 4: Mum and I. So we're meant to clean all this up.
Speaker 4: So we have this running battle for a couple of hours,
Speaker 4: me her and my wife. My wife is texting me
Speaker 4: going can you go up there again? And I have
Speaker 4: to keep going and she's like, what is it?
Speaker 7: Now?
Speaker 4: What's mom setting you up to do? Anyway, yesterday evening
Speaker 4: to create some sort of piece, I did something I
Speaker 4: haven't done since I was a kid, and I loved it.
Speaker 4: I saw that she was watching TV by itself, said hey,
Speaker 4: do you want to watch something together? Shouldn't you yeah,
Speaker 4: I saw that shut a bowl of Coca Pops. I
Speaker 4: went and got a bowl of Coca Pops. It's a
Speaker 4: brave new world at fifty. Why have I waited so
Speaker 4: long to have Coca Pops again? I reckon?
Speaker 3: The last time I had a chat I was a kid,
Speaker 3: and not even that. Having it not at breakfast is
Speaker 3: just an added bonus on top of that.
Speaker 4: Someday you get a bit of the old Sunday Blue.
Speaker 4: I've now worked out a way finally not no more.
Speaker 4: You've got bottle of Coco Pops on a.
Speaker 1: Goo Christian Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 4: One thing with doing some sorting out yesterday is yesterday.
Speaker 4: It's another kind of mini landmark in life in Australia
Speaker 4: puts my first ever hard rubbish collection this week.
Speaker 3: Oh congratulations, and may I throw some stuff on top jack.
Speaker 4: So we dragged a load of stuff out there yesterday
Speaker 4: and when I left for work today at five am,
Speaker 4: there's some stuff on my nature strip that is not mine.
Speaker 4: Overnights munchkins have been out dumping stuff on my nature strip.
Speaker 4: What do you get?
Speaker 3: Do you get a meter bio met? Yes, yeah that's
Speaker 3: what we get. Yeah, you can sort, you can put
Speaker 3: a bit more and they will.
Speaker 4: Yeah, are you annowed to stack out? Can I go
Speaker 4: like ten meters up?
Speaker 7: No?
Speaker 3: Only a loot of meter It's like it meta cubed.
Speaker 4: Oh I see, I thought it was just meter along.
Speaker 4: Otherwise people would take the.
Speaker 3: Mickey yeah, and start balancing chairs and dining tables and
Speaker 3: further up enough.
Speaker 4: Yeah, So I am now worried that over the next
Speaker 4: couple of days because I don't think they come until Thursday.
Speaker 4: That that is just going to be because even I've
Speaker 4: done it.
Speaker 3: You know, where you see someone that's a part one.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a pin on. You see it at the front,
Speaker 4: you know. Don't use like a lighthouse when you see
Speaker 4: someone with a small stack. There, I go making that
Speaker 4: with that. I'm coming back at nine o'clock to night,
Speaker 4: under cover of darkness. You part slightly down the road,
Speaker 4: don't you open up that boot? I even wait for
Speaker 4: a bit, just let the noise of the boot opening
Speaker 4: die down. Then go right go and just thing where
Speaker 4: you look. You couldn't look any more suspicious, and you
Speaker 4: just start looking around constantly. You know, you see a
Speaker 4: dog walk and you make out you live there. I'm
Speaker 4: just tiling up this bit here.
Speaker 3: And then as soon as you put your item on
Speaker 3: the stack of hard rubbish, you do that walk really
Speaker 3: really quickly. It's almost a run.
Speaker 4: Yes, you're not running, but you're not you're not hanging
Speaker 4: around either, all right, emails, elect to a party. There
Speaker 4: must be a word by the way for that. Not running,
Speaker 4: But you're not slow walking? What is it? It's the
Speaker 4: thing you do as well. You know when you start
Speaker 4: to cross the road anywhere it's bloody. How that car
Speaker 4: is a lot closer. I don't look uncured, spring going right,
Speaker 4: but I cannot maintain this wrong, flattened?
Speaker 3: What is that?
Speaker 4: It's not that Olympic power whatever they have. All right,
Speaker 4: late to the party. This is a home of your
Speaker 4: emails to the show. Whenever you listen to the show,
Speaker 4: you can email whenever you want. Nothing we talk about
Speaker 4: the show has ever left completely dead or behind. Last
Speaker 4: week on the show, we were saying I didn't think
Speaker 4: called never too late. We're talking about people who are
Speaker 4: learning new skills. I bumped into one of our lovely
Speaker 4: listeners yesterday, a man called Gavin, who, over the last
Speaker 4: five years has been learning to hand glide.
Speaker 3: Oh wow, hang glide?
Speaker 4: Is it called hand gliding? I don't know what I said,
Speaker 4: hand gliding, He guides his hands around. He does that.
Speaker 4: The window on the thermals. Wow, may I talk about it?
Speaker 4: It was it was incredible. I didn't realize what a
Speaker 4: beautiful thing it is to do where you're all alone
Speaker 4: up there. And he said, he goes over like the
Speaker 4: Grampians and stuff like that, where you can get up
Speaker 4: doing a hand glide. Al right, I'm doing over twenty
Speaker 4: thousand feet. It's something he's above. Planes coming in to
Speaker 4: land at Melbourne Airport, why you can hear them on
Speaker 4: the little radio.
Speaker 3: What I don't understand is how do you go from
Speaker 3: doing like a tan and say with an expert to
Speaker 3: your first time. I think that about that wingsuit thing
Speaker 3: that they do with Red Bull as well. How do
Speaker 3: you do your first time at that year?
Speaker 4: Is that you can't do work experience? Its suddenly go
Speaker 4: you're doing it your own. Now You've got to fix
Speaker 4: your own problems up there anyway, Okay. Some emails and
Speaker 4: about learning new things in life. Christian, I'm fifty two.
Speaker 4: I've been working in the building industry for thirty years.
Speaker 4: About five months ago I started to learn Australian sign
Speaker 4: language Osland through expressions Australia. I've been starting a diploma
Speaker 4: in February next year. I enjoyed it so much. It
Speaker 4: is the most rewarding thing I have. Is this amazing
Speaker 4: fifty two I've ever done for myself, and it's so
Speaker 4: nice learning something new. I don't know anyone who is deaf,
Speaker 4: but I've found learning this skill and class environment to
Speaker 4: be so enjoyable. I'm hoping that one day in the
Speaker 4: future I can move into a new vocation allows me
Speaker 4: to use the skill to help other people.
Speaker 3: Or that's a lovely a legend I actually have. If
Speaker 3: anybody knows the answer to this, I'd love to know.
Speaker 3: Gordy watches an American youtubeer kids presenter, right, and she
Speaker 3: teaches a lot of sign language. But I said to Bianca,
Speaker 3: I think he's learning the wrong sign language, because I
Speaker 3: think Australia has their own one. Is Osland mean Australian
Speaker 3: sign langues?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 3: It must be, so is it vastly different to what
Speaker 3: the rest of the world uses or what America?
Speaker 4: Great question you need to find out otherwise using a
Speaker 4: turn up, whether all these American words he gets to
Speaker 4: school a couple of years time, Christian or this is
Speaker 4: a show last week about learning new skills. I've been
Speaker 4: a nurse in neonatal intensive care since nineteen ninety nine
Speaker 4: and I've recently suspended my registration. Today I passed my
Speaker 4: final on road assessments after six weeks of full time training.
Speaker 4: I am now a tram driver at the grand old
Speaker 4: age of fifty three. That is incredible. Lovely Kaitlin and
Speaker 4: Croyd and thank you very much.
Speaker 1: Well Christian Connell's show podcast.
Speaker 4: Christian. One of the best fire wors dis players I've
Speaker 4: ever seen was in Ecuador in a little town sillabating
Speaker 4: some local history, but the fireworks display was set up
Speaker 4: on a small wooden boat. My life and I didn't
Speaker 4: watch much of the display were too busy. The three
Speaker 4: dudes running around a tiny boat, handlighting each What a
Speaker 4: show within a show, handlighting each firework tube on a
Speaker 4: one key wooden boat.
Speaker 3: You wouldn't think wooden fireworks go together either.
Speaker 4: Is that a Viking pie like a funeral boat that
Speaker 4: could have easily turned into so lovely Hearing all these
Speaker 4: retting out your emails about people who were learning skills
Speaker 4: later on life, not the person who's been working in
Speaker 4: the building industry for thirty years now learning Osland Australian
Speaker 4: sign language. And Jack has a good question, Right, so
Speaker 4: your son watches a YouTuber.
Speaker 3: Yes, she's American and part of the things that she
Speaker 3: teaches is sign language. So I know how to say Mama, Papa, grandmother, grandpa.
Speaker 3: But I'm not sure if I'm learning an American one
Speaker 3: and Gord's learning an American one because Osland signifies as
Speaker 3: his own silanguage. Yeah.
Speaker 4: I've never thought about that. VICKI, Hi, go on, VICKI,
Speaker 4: what can you tell us about this?
Speaker 8: I just thought it was interesting. I did sign language
Speaker 8: some time ago, and my son, who's now eight, is
Speaker 8: studying is studying its part of his school curriculum.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 8: Yeah, it's great. And he actually started doing two different
Speaker 8: like he's It was almost I said to him, he's
Speaker 8: learning two different types. He goes, yeah, there are two
Speaker 8: different dialects within Australia, so it is a northern dialect
Speaker 8: and a southern so and it was. I looked it
Speaker 8: up as well, and on the one of the Deaf
Speaker 8: Australia websites that has that there are actually two different dialects,
Speaker 8: so motary no and ivid did I and so that
Speaker 8: was interesting, and then someone else taught me that American
Speaker 8: apparently uses one hand. I didn't know that they used
Speaker 8: one hand to sign the alphabet, I think, whereas we
Speaker 8: used two.
Speaker 4: Yeah. And English Sign language, well yeah, those Americas, they're
Speaker 4: so lazy, aren't They just got one to do it?
Speaker 3: So VICKI, which one should we learn? I would love
Speaker 3: to teach Gordy sign language. I would love to learn
Speaker 3: myself with Northern dialect Southern dialect, Well.
Speaker 8: Well we're deemed under the under the Southern, so yeah,
Speaker 8: I guess that one, but I didn't know it was two.
Speaker 8: I found that out.
Speaker 4: Even variety in between, say light for essay as well.
Speaker 4: Obviously it's palmehre and palma there. Does it even break
Speaker 4: down like that?
Speaker 9: Probably?
Speaker 8: I used to live in South Australia and I used
Speaker 8: to think I was from another country, so it's possible.
Speaker 8: But yeah, so it's just interesting. But it's like we've
Speaker 8: I guess with Italian, you have northern southern dialects as well,
Speaker 8: so it's the same kind of thing. But yeah, but
Speaker 8: either way, anyone, I think anyone who's there would appreciate
Speaker 8: anyone trying to communicate with them. I'm trying to get
Speaker 8: back into it myself. So yeah, times when your kids
Speaker 8: can say happy Mother's Day and Happy Father's Day in
Speaker 8: like in Sielang, which it's nice.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it most we want to think of that. We
Speaker 4: should all have a bit of a communicate with anybody
Speaker 4: and everybody. VICKI thank you very much for coma. Have
Speaker 4: a good day, you too, guy, All right, lines right

Speaker 4: of the signs do vary wildly from state to state.
Speaker 4: I'm aware of this as I coordinate and run a

Speaker 3: inside of a wrist, which is small the size of
Speaker 3: a fifty cent piece. This would be a size of
Speaker 3: a pack of playing cards. Oh wow, big. But I
Speaker 3: don't recognize him as a famous Olympian now he would
Speaker 3: be your age, my age, yeah, thirty five to forty five,
Speaker 3: somewhere in between the two of us. Doesn't look buff,
Speaker 3: doesn't look But.
Speaker 4: Then his Olympian days might have been five ten years ago.
Speaker 4: Some former athletes, some of them maintain and other people
Speaker 4: they puff up a bit.
Speaker 3: Well, he's I would say, if anything with it all ways,
Speaker 3: But maybe so.
Speaker 4: Maybe you think he was a triathlete, maybe long jump,
Speaker 4: long jumper.
Speaker 3: What about like a fencer or somebody whose face is
Speaker 3: covered so we wouldn't know.
Speaker 4: That to consult Google see how Australia fence, I wouldn't
Speaker 4: know where austral is or England is in the I
Speaker 4: would know who are the dominant countries. It feels like
Speaker 4: a Frenchman sport to me. I don't know why, just
Speaker 4: plucking out of the air that it feels like France
Speaker 4: will be all Spanish will be more dominating in the
Speaker 4: world of fencing.
Speaker 3: You're right, we would get more excited about fencing. I
Speaker 3: think if there was an Australian in there no, or it.
Speaker 4: Had no mask, I think you like it if it
Speaker 4: was just a bare face thing rather than so okay,
Speaker 4: so we're thinking he's a form What about if he
Speaker 4: was a trainer?
Speaker 8: No?
Speaker 3: Can you can you get the tattoo with? If you're
Speaker 3: a trainer, I think you've got to be competing.
Speaker 4: What about if you're a trainer and you you you
Speaker 4: you've trained a few silver and gold medalists. It has
Speaker 4: been part of your life.
Speaker 3: You're so you think who is our favorite coach of
Speaker 3: all time?
Speaker 4: Boxel box, Where is Dean Boxel.
Speaker 3: He was famously humping the rail as Ariana Titmus came home.
Speaker 3: It's to win gold.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's a blast.
Speaker 3: Is he allowed to have an Olympic Well, I'd like
Speaker 3: to know from tatoo artists or tatoo enthusiasts, who's allowed
Speaker 3: to get an Olympic rings tatoo?
Speaker 4: So you are you saying you don't think you're allowed
Speaker 4: to get it if you're not involved in the Olympics,
Speaker 4: why would you know? What if it was someone's mum
Speaker 4: or dadd who want a gold Man?
Speaker 11: No?
Speaker 3: No, no, no, you've got to be anthly.
Speaker 4: I think really it's a trademark logo as well, isn't it.
Speaker 4: How does that work? Can someone cut that off?
Speaker 3: Well? Remember when anytime we talk about the Olympics on
Speaker 3: this show, maybe I'm not even allowed to say that.
Speaker 3: Get that thing about? Is you never it's close to
Speaker 3: the competition?
Speaker 4: You're allow us say? This is how they make their money,
Speaker 4: suing people like us, just even discussing another human being.
Speaker 3: How do they make all those gold having.
Speaker 4: Olympic rings tattooed on them? If anyone can tell us
Speaker 4: about this, give us a call nine four one four
Speaker 4: one four three, also texting now then oh four seventy
Speaker 4: five three one oh four three, your weekend and six words.
Speaker 1: The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 4: Tommy A Producers is stuck it as head around the door.
Speaker 4: It's nice to see him sometimes, isn't it. We actually
Speaker 4: have a theory that Tommy Producers working on another show.
Speaker 4: He said that apparently the head of the Australian Olympic
Speaker 4: Committee is a former gold medal winner at fencing at
Speaker 4: the Olympics. I don't think it's a fencer, well, Jack
Speaker 4: Seene a guy down at his local swim pool who's
Speaker 4: got the five Olympic rings tattooed on them. So if
Speaker 4: you're going to go and get a very unique, identifiable
Speaker 4: logo like that the Olympics, in my mind we're thinking
Speaker 4: this is a former Olympia.
Speaker 3: Yes, I didn't recognize him as a famous Olympians slim person.
Speaker 3: Maybe he was a fencer because they wear the masks
Speaker 3: so you wouldn't know, you wouldn't be able to identify.
Speaker 4: We have weight categories and fencing are the heavyweight fencers
Speaker 4: middleweight like they're doing boxing and you have it all in.
Speaker 3: But you know what, I've never watched a fencing match.
Speaker 4: I have when we had the London twenty twelve and
Speaker 4: obviously there was a frenzy people trying to get tickets.
Speaker 4: You need to it so I could get tickets. Was
Speaker 4: Greco Roman Wrestling brilliant and the fencing I left after
Speaker 4: fifteen minutes. It's very precise, slash boring. It was just
Speaker 4: like you can't you can't really see what they're actually
Speaker 4: what it's quite. It's a sudden sport where it's so quick.
Speaker 4: You know, sometimes you watch the sport and you're not watching.
Speaker 4: If you watch it love, you're not watching the video
Speaker 4: screens more to get the video replay. You're there, but
Speaker 4: you're not really just watching it on TV.
Speaker 3: That's what we were in London with Hami Shnani for
Speaker 3: the Olympics. Yeah, the only tickets we could get table tennis.
Speaker 3: But you're in an arena the size of a sense
Speaker 3: of Marvel Stadium, trying to peer down at a tiny
Speaker 3: little ball which you can't see, so you have to
Speaker 3: watch the whole thing on the screens.
Speaker 4: If you or I were Olympic gold medist fences, right,
Speaker 4: I think if I was gonna have a tattoo, i'd
Speaker 4: get one of the foil and epei.
Speaker 3: Yes, and then people know along with the rings, so
Speaker 3: you say I had the Olympics.
Speaker 4: So it's the story. Because tattoos often for people, they
Speaker 4: are the story view, aren't they? So on how have
Speaker 4: that rather than just the rings.
Speaker 3: Australia has not yet won a fencing medal at the Olympics.
Speaker 3: Our best place athlete has been Greg Benko, who we
Speaker 3: all know finished sixth at Montreal nineteen seventy six.
Speaker 4: So what's talking about? Where do you get that? This
Speaker 4: is a guy we poach on Triple M just making

Speaker 1: Christian Connell's show podcast.
Speaker 4: You know, it's raining Saturday evening and we had some
Speaker 4: friends realm and we've were doing steaks and I saw
Speaker 4: cooked them outside of the barbecue because it doesn't stink
Speaker 4: the kitchen. Now it's the best place to do your
Speaker 4: states on the barbecue. But anyway, get this, what a
Speaker 4: great friend. As it was raining, to protect the meat,
Speaker 4: I think more to protect the meat on the on
Speaker 4: the grill rather than just me a friend held umbrella
Speaker 4: over my head and the grills head so we could
Speaker 4: still have because it was like the rain was as
Speaker 4: you said earlier sideways, it was horrible Nari rain. But
Speaker 4: barbecue season is here.
Speaker 3: We had our first barbecue yesday of the season as well.
Speaker 3: Got the weber out. Although do you put your weber
Speaker 3: away over winter or do you leave it outside?
Speaker 4: I leave it outside right where they live and belong. However,
Speaker 4: it does have a waterproof cover over it.
Speaker 3: Oh see, my we have the cover as well, And
Speaker 3: I want to say about may the cover blew away
Speaker 3: and I just left down the backfild.
Speaker 4: Come on, you've had time to get it time.
Speaker 3: I saw every time I looked at that the weber
Speaker 3: getting drenched in the rain. I was like, and rusty,
Speaker 3: I must go out there and put the cover back on.
Speaker 3: But then it gets to about midyear and you're like, well,
Speaker 3: now we're so close to spring, I might as well
Speaker 3: just wait it out. And we did wade it out.
Speaker 3: So yesterday when I got it out, I had to
Speaker 3: get all the cobwebs off it, clean all the crap
Speaker 3: off it. You know that the drip tray underneath.
Speaker 4: Yeah, do you get all the fat out there.
Speaker 8: No, it was.
Speaker 3: It was completely empty. I feel like the rats of
Speaker 3: the possums left it up. Oh no, he was actually
Speaker 3: bone dry.
Speaker 4: You're kidding. No, that is not a good sign.
Speaker 3: Some animals had a terrible night's sleep after that.
Speaker 4: I remember in the New Year, we were up on
Speaker 4: the Gold Coast. We were staying near the Mermaid Beach
Speaker 4: and I'd hired a caban. I don't know if you've
Speaker 4: ever try to put up a cabana, right, And it
Speaker 4: was a bit breezy there. Right, It's a big, beautiful,
Speaker 4: big open beach up there, right, but it was very breezy,
Speaker 4: and I suddenly looked around them and no other cabana's up.
Speaker 4: I thought, wow, just I'm the only guy who cares
Speaker 4: about his kids. And then uh, I went for We
Speaker 4: went in to get into the sea, and I could
Speaker 4: see this cabaner just coming down the beach, literally doing
Speaker 4: forward rolls like cabana deposit for it, right. I run out.
Speaker 4: It's hard to run out the sea as well. You know,
Speaker 4: he's trying to lift and he's really hard. Came running
Speaker 4: another dad takes chase over it and dies to grab
Speaker 4: like a rugby tackle to try and get hold of
Speaker 4: my cabaner. So today on the show, we want to
Speaker 4: know what blew away? Ber.
Speaker 1: You're listening to the Christian o'cyl show podcast What blew Away?
Speaker 4: Samantha, Good morning, Good morning.
Speaker 12: How are you Christian?
Speaker 4: I'm good month. I had a great weekends, actually called
Speaker 4: in the show, so what blew away?
Speaker 12: Well, I'm in Geelong and I got a call from
Speaker 12: the Sees saying that there was a trampoline ended up
Speaker 12: in my backyard from my neighbor.
Speaker 4: Up the road, blowing down the road.
Speaker 12: Yeah, it ended up.
Speaker 6: In my backyard.
Speaker 12: And all I said was to the Sees guy, not
Speaker 12: my dogs. But I wasn't worried about the dogs. First
Speaker 12: thing I said, is it jumpable? Can I come home
Speaker 12: and jump on it? But yeah, I lost my barbecue smashed.
Speaker 12: It's gone up the side of the house and my
Speaker 12: dog kennels went flying and my dogs were huffing and puffing.
Speaker 5: When I.
Speaker 6: Cut it.
Speaker 4: This just sounds like the Wizard of Oce. What do
Speaker 4: you mean The dog kennel flew up in the air.
Speaker 12: Well, they flew the cheer plastic dog kennels and they
Speaker 12: ended up down near the clothes line. Shit, So you
Speaker 12: imagine if they were in that. I would not like
Speaker 12: to think if they were in there when that happened.
Speaker 4: I've never heard if not. Dogs sort of been blown
Speaker 4: up in the air and sort of down the road,
Speaker 4: tumbling along with the trampoline, dogs in their kennels.
Speaker 9: So it's sad.
Speaker 12: That's terrible, isn't it?
Speaker 4: It is? And so how many doors away? Was the
Speaker 4: was the trampoline from the top end of the street?
Speaker 12: All houses down?
Speaker 4: Bloody? How strong with the wings? Where was this?
Speaker 6: Then?
Speaker 4: That's chaos?
Speaker 12: So it was pretty bad. I lost I've lost a
Speaker 12: few tiles and different things. And the guttering is a
Speaker 12: bit mangled, but that's all right. It can be fixed.
Speaker 4: Samantha, thank you very much. You kill me. I have
Speaker 4: a good day.
Speaker 12: Thank you to kristin Bay, Maria Coomrning gang.
Speaker 4: How are you where we Maria? What blew away?
Speaker 7: My son?
Speaker 13: When he went to school. We sent him to a
Speaker 13: private school and part of the uniform was a ridiculously
Speaker 13: expensive hat they had to wear. About three weeks into
Speaker 13: his first term, he was standing on the train station
Speaker 13: and the wind caught the hat and off it went,
Speaker 13: and it was rolling down the station and he went
Speaker 13: after it and pretty similar to you in your cabana.
Speaker 13: He went rugby diving just as it was about to
Speaker 13: go off the station onto the tracks. Managed to catch it,
Speaker 13: but came home with extremely badly gray's knees and elbows.
Speaker 13: But he said, I didn't lose my hat.
Speaker 3: Oh, you can't lose a hat because no hat, no play, shelter,
Speaker 3: shed all lunch time, extreme wind.
Speaker 13: Yeah, it wasn't that's not a hat, Jack. It was
Speaker 13: a hat that they had to wear going to and
Speaker 13: from school. They didn't have to wear it when they
Speaker 13: were outside during during the day. Oh, it was ridiculous.
Speaker 13: They used to refer to it as the summer of
Speaker 13: Kubra and it looked like a.
Speaker 14: Boater hat.
Speaker 3: How have I never seen these students walk in the street.
Speaker 13: He was on the other side of town, Jack, if
Speaker 13: you lived on I think they go to school under
Speaker 13: the cover of darkness. You have not which score I
Speaker 13: was talking about, And every goodbody who goes there knows
Speaker 13: about it as well.
Speaker 3: Still wearing the felt the coobra's today, are they No?
Speaker 13: I think they faced them out in the last couple
Speaker 13: of years.
Speaker 6: That this was about ten years ago.
Speaker 4: Amazing scenes, Maria, very funny story. Thanksgiving us a call mate.
Speaker 1: This is the Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 4: Asking you right now what blew away? Good morning, Adam
Speaker 4: at work already, Christian. One of my only memories is
Speaker 4: the day we moved to Melbourne from regional VIC I
Speaker 4: was about five years old. To cheer me up about
Speaker 4: leaving and moving to the Big Smoke, my parents had
Speaker 4: got me a yellow balloon. We're about to get in
Speaker 4: the car and leave forever. The balloon blew out my
Speaker 4: hands and took off down the driveway. My feckless father.
Speaker 4: This is still obviously bourns Evy. This happened in nineteen
Speaker 4: seventy eight, my feckless father, which is a fucking one day.
Speaker 4: My feckless father and uncle both gave half hearted chase.
Speaker 4: This still it's all the way back in nineteen seventy eight,
Speaker 4: but an even greater gust of wind launched it further
Speaker 4: into the air and out from the driveway moments later, Christian,
Speaker 4: it was in the stratosphere. All during the two hour
Speaker 4: drive to our new home, my uncle would randomly point
Speaker 4: at non specific points in the sky and yell, there's
Speaker 4: your balloon. Each time I'd strained to look up and
Speaker 4: not see anything. Each time, my uncle would tell me
Speaker 4: I just missed it. It's gone behind a cloud, before
Speaker 4: pointing again at some non specific cloud. I'm not saying
Speaker 4: that was traumatized or anything, but I'm forty seven now
Speaker 4: and I'm still thinking about that yellow balloon. Adamat bestless,
Speaker 4: reckless father? All right, what blew away? Phil? Good morning?
Speaker 15: Good morning guys.
Speaker 4: How are we? Yeah, we're good felt We're having a
Speaker 4: great weekend. What blew away? Phil?
Speaker 7: So?
Speaker 15: I was down at the beach at Rosebud. My umbrella
Speaker 15: blew away and went about twenty meters and a couple
Speaker 15: of lovely ladies grabbed it pully and as they were
Speaker 15: wrangling mine, there's blue lots blow away. So I gave
Speaker 15: Jake for theirs, and there were about two hundred meters
Speaker 15: printing try and get it back to this lovely grip
Speaker 15: ladies who are somedaby what.
Speaker 4: Down the beach to be watching that. It's just an
Speaker 4: innocent bystander, not involved in the frack arm.
Speaker 15: I spent running after.
Speaker 4: What happened. It's hard giving chase anything in the sand. Brutal,
Speaker 4: It's brutal, it is, Phil, Thank you very much, You
Speaker 4: cool mate. That's got to leanne here. Good morning, LIAMB.
Speaker 6: Good morning.
Speaker 4: What blew away? Ah?
Speaker 7: Well, we were towing home our canterravan on the freeway
Speaker 7: at one hundred kilometers and the roof of the canterravan
Speaker 7: blew off. All the canvas around the side that connects
Speaker 7: to the bottom blew off, and everything inside the canravan
Speaker 7: that wasn't nailed down also blew backwards, causing carnage all
Speaker 7: over the road and massive traffic jams and a great
Speaker 7: big mess.
Speaker 4: Lyah So basically after a while you're just towing, well,
Speaker 4: you're just doing some wheels on you basically the act. Yes,
Speaker 4: it was like a trailer just been stripped away. Yep.
Speaker 3: So what had happened. Was there a window open or
Speaker 3: something that let the air get in and under the ceiling?
Speaker 6: No, no where you.
Speaker 8: Hooked it in at the front.
Speaker 7: The wind had caught that somehow. It was an old
Speaker 7: camper van and it started to lift it.
Speaker 6: And then being at one hundred kilometers, the wind just.
Speaker 13: Lifted the roof and it just ripped everything off and
Speaker 13: flew everything flying everywhere, and then.
Speaker 4: You caused a massive, a massive traffic jam.
Speaker 7: Well, cars just had to pull over everywhere trying to
Speaker 7: avoid the mattresses and everything that were flying.
Speaker 3: So did you start to run around and get kick nacked?
Speaker 6: Yeah, we pulled over, and.
Speaker 7: Friends of ours that were following pulled over, and other
Speaker 7: people that had pulled over. We were all trying to
Speaker 7: clear it all off the road.
Speaker 4: And yeah, what an absolute nightmare, Leanne. Incredible story though,
Speaker 4: thanks for sharing it. Thank you Tom. On the show,
Speaker 4: we should just find out. It's a bit why did
Speaker 4: you call a massive traffic jam seven years ago? On?
Speaker 4: People hate you, they don't care for your backstory. Well,
Speaker 4: while the car's broken down, if you've caused a traffic jam,
Speaker 4: you want to hide in that car where you went
Speaker 4: to be towed away? Have we got here? Kelly Goome morning, Kelly.
Speaker 10: Good, Hey Christian, how are you?
Speaker 4: I'm good Kelly. What got blown away?
Speaker 10: Well, we were sitting at a cafe in Regional Victoria,
Speaker 10: a new little shop that just opened, and my husband
Speaker 10: I thought we'd go and check it out. I'm sitting
Speaker 10: there having some breakfast and my husband went inside to
Speaker 10: get maybe some salt pepper, and I'm sitting there eating
Speaker 10: my lovely breakfast when all of a sudden, the gust
Speaker 10: of wind came along and blew the massive cafe umbrella
Speaker 10: over the top of the cafe into the car park
Speaker 10: and onto.
Speaker 4: Our car, a perfect landing, and the giants did not
Speaker 4: give it ten out of ten. Oh my god, Kelly,
Speaker 4: So what happened? Did it set the car alarm off
Speaker 4: or smashing the bottom?
Speaker 10: It did off a bit of duco and we'd only
Speaker 10: recently sort of got the car, and I was just
Speaker 10: sitting there though too. I sat there and I didn't
Speaker 10: couldn't believe that the wind had taken the umbrella, so
Speaker 10: I just kept eating my breakfast like nothing had happened.
Speaker 10: And my husband walks out and I'm just there, no umbrella.
Speaker 4: You see the brolly take off and land on your
Speaker 4: own above me.
Speaker 10: It was above me, Chrystal. You know, I was sitting
Speaker 10: under this huge umbrella, which she would have thought augusta
Speaker 10: wind wouldn't be able to lift it because it should
Speaker 10: be weighted down, and of course it obviously wasn't weighted
Speaker 10: down correctly, and it sort of went over the top
Speaker 10: of the cafe, so I couldn't really see where it
Speaker 10: went until my husband came out sees me sitting there
Speaker 10: sort of umbrella naked now, and there we go and
Speaker 10: check the car and of course it's hit the car.
Speaker 10: It's gone up the street like it really took off,
Speaker 10: and our car has been damaged. And of course the
Speaker 10: cafe owners tried to get out of playing the insurance
Speaker 10: saying it was an act of God. But thankfully no,
Speaker 10: we got covered by insurance and got our car fixed.
Speaker 4: But you got first.
Speaker 10: No, we didn't go back charged, no, no, no free breakfast,
Speaker 10: and we decided maybe not to go back. In the
Speaker 10: recommend the cafe twenty one in case you know, similar
Speaker 10: acts of God may have occurred.
Speaker 4: Who knows, I open a cafe called acts of God.
Speaker 4: That's part of the fill of eating. You don't know
Speaker 4: what might happen to tornadoes. Kelly, thank you very much,
Speaker 4: she called my great story.
Speaker 15: No worries.
Speaker 10: Thanks. Christian.

Speaker 4: weeks time, we want the two teams, someone from each
Speaker 4: team to give up their house, the front of their
Speaker 4: house to be painted in the team's colors. Now they
Speaker 4: think that's not too big a deal. You see this
Speaker 4: a lot. I still see driving around those sumtup players.
Speaker 4: We've still got like the Tigers colors up from a
Speaker 4: couple of years ago, the DEDs and a couple of
Speaker 4: years ago. It's not just your team's colors up there
Speaker 4: to wish them well in the Grand Final. It's actually
Speaker 4: to call it six days early and to clear them
Speaker 4: the twenty twenty three premieres. Now, I know a lot
Speaker 4: of US sports fans are very very superstitious who even say,
Speaker 4: oh I don't want to jinx it or anything like that,
Speaker 4: but you will have to rob the risk of jinxing in.
Speaker 4: So we're looking for two teams to represent and put
Speaker 4: the house on the line. You each get one thousand
Speaker 4: dollars for taking part in this.
Speaker 11: Resign the front of your grand Fine, now now you
Speaker 11: get it, Will it be pies?
Speaker 3: It's time to put your house on the line.
Speaker 4: Wow wow, wow, all right, are you a pair, show
Speaker 4: us your colors thanks to Monarch painting made easy. Now
Speaker 4: are you pared to show us your colors? Will you
Speaker 4: put your house on the line? Thanks to Monarch Australia's
Speaker 4: premium range of paint brushers and accessories. Monarch painting made easy?
Speaker 4: All right? So piece fans, you fancy doing this? You're
Speaker 4: in the grand fine? Are you gonna put your house
Speaker 4: on the line? To Claire two weeks time? Twenty premierees?
Speaker 4: You fit in that confident? Are you a proper fan?
Speaker 4: Blues up and about today? You make it that far?
Speaker 4: How long would it be before your back to heat?
Speaker 4: I was saying this as ad all disclosure.
Speaker 3: What do you think of the Blue song?
Speaker 4: By the way, not such a good one.
Speaker 3: It's like, yeah, we're slowly making our way down a river.
Speaker 4: Yeah I do. I'm not just saying because I'm a fan,
Speaker 4: but I do not the DS one. It's got a
Speaker 4: good sort of come to it. It could be the
Speaker 4: Lions Giants. That's good over the weekend. Sorry Saints, but
Speaker 4: they did. And I got to say, this is one
Speaker 4: of my favorite songs. I think their anthem is a
Speaker 4: great one.
Speaker 5: So from.
Speaker 4: It's the sound of the Night. Jack song Man. That's
Speaker 4: that's a banger, isn't it.
Speaker 3: This is Harry, who is the trumpet player in the
Speaker 3: Cat Empire wrote this.
Speaker 4: Theme song Cat Empire great song, Hello, Hello, Hello. And
Speaker 4: then well there's a big south from the west of
Speaker 4: the town. It's the south. And then the Port one power.
Speaker 4: This is lame. You know what this says to me?
Speaker 4: Eurovision Song Contest circa seventy eight Port Power yaya question,
Speaker 4: we are the power from mart It's no I don't
Speaker 4: think album on the weekend as well, knowing that even
Speaker 4: if they win, they get to hear this power. Okay,
Speaker 4: a song like this alright, anyway, where does it leave?
Speaker 4: Then we need to start finding people that would be
Speaker 4: up for this or all the six teams that are
Speaker 4: still in play still going to be contenders if you're
Speaker 4: a fan of one of those teams and you're prepared
Speaker 4: to put your house on the line and show us
Speaker 4: the colors.
Speaker 1: The Christian O'Connell's show podcast.
Speaker 4: So if you're one of the six teams, if you
Speaker 4: are our team is still in the finals in two
Speaker 4: weeks time, we're obviously going to know who's going to
Speaker 4: be in the grand Father this year we're asking you
Speaker 4: to show us your colors. Will you put your house
Speaker 4: on the line, and that means that we will paint
Speaker 4: it in your team's colors and also us to go
Speaker 4: on the front there calling it early the twenty twenty
Speaker 4: three premiers, your team a couple of days, good six
Speaker 4: days before the actual Grand Final. So thanks to a monarch,
Speaker 4: we will obviously restore your house to howver it was someway.
Speaker 4: But if you, obviously your team goes on a win,
Speaker 4: you might want to leave it up there for a bit,
Speaker 4: but houses will be returned to their pristine condition. Okay,
Speaker 4: no houses or fasarts will be hurt in this feature. However,
Speaker 4: we do need to we need teams. We need to
Speaker 4: start to find out who's going to be up for this.
Speaker 4: Everybody who actually makes it gets one thousand dollars each
Speaker 4: even for just being up for this case. So are
Speaker 4: you a big enough fan to show us your colors?
Speaker 4: Britney is morning Britney, Good morning Britney. So you were
Speaker 4: who'd you bar it for?
Speaker 14: Well you called us the Eurovision team, But in actual
Speaker 14: fact I just want to say, without doing any shade,
Speaker 14: Melbourne fans probably would remember the port song because we
Speaker 14: did beat you during the season.
Speaker 4: We've got the.
Speaker 3: Seventy eight everyone information it's Formation.
Speaker 14: One, I mean Jack, we also beat your team too.
Speaker 4: I love it, Brittany, I love it. I love the
Speaker 4: partner passion. So are you from Adelaide now living in Melbourne? Brittany?
Speaker 4: What's the deal?
Speaker 7: Oh?
Speaker 14: Was? Actually I'm born in Melbourne and I actually grew
Speaker 14: up as like from when I was born to about
Speaker 14: seven or eight as a Carlton supporter, and then I
Speaker 14: kind of got sick of them, so I swapped to
Speaker 14: Port and I've been a Port fan ever since. We like,
Speaker 14: this is the team that I will ride.
Speaker 4: And die with love. I love the passion. It's just
Speaker 4: a shamey song, doesn't have it?
Speaker 14: You picked the weirdness and.
Speaker 4: There's a remix of this, Brittany, there's a B side, Brittany.
Speaker 4: So where is your place in Melbourne? Where could be
Speaker 4: painting yours? If Port go through to the Grand Final?
Speaker 7: Ah?
Speaker 14: So we're in Laylaw, so my dad's call with it.
Speaker 14: So it'll probably be the front spence of the house.
Speaker 14: But I would definitely do the whole house.
Speaker 4: The whole I would do.
Speaker 14: I would paint the whole house in port colors.
Speaker 4: Sounds like someone's hedging their bets like this, layms you
Speaker 4: can pete.
Speaker 14: It might sound lame, but we might not be hearing
Speaker 14: the Melvin song in the final.
Speaker 4: Brittany, you are.
Speaker 14: I didn't make the pull that one because we did
Speaker 14: hear the Collingwood won the first finals.
Speaker 4: Yeah all right, Brittany, we love it. You're exactly the
Speaker 4: kind of fan we're looking for this So thank you
Speaker 4: very much for give us a call. Have a good day.

Speaker 4: history of the club? Why the Lions?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I fitz Roy the family were pies and cats,
Speaker 2: and then when I was a young fellow, I just
Speaker 2: didn't want either of that, and I chose my team
Speaker 2: by open the up Harold Son and chose whichever team
Speaker 2: was in the middle of the ladder because I didn't
Speaker 2: want a crap team and I didn't want a great team.
Speaker 2: And the Fitzroy lines were literally sixth on the ladder
Speaker 2: at the time, and I needed a favorite player, so

Speaker 2: easiest name to remember. They were my favorite player, and
