Speaker 1: Christian O'Connell, Christian O'Connell show, What happened to Me, Chuck
Speaker 1: and Patsy over the weekend? And a song that sums
Speaker 1: it up, Jack Post, What's it for you?
Speaker 2: I got dressed up on Friday night. This is my
Speaker 2: song for the weekend.
Speaker 1: Crazy about Where did he go?
Speaker 2: A sharp dressed man was on his way to my
Speaker 2: wife's work function. Biancher had a big party with her
Speaker 2: work on Friday night and she was there early helping
Speaker 2: to set it up and run the event.
Speaker 1: Give the charity a plug. Your wife works for an
Speaker 1: amazing charity.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Free to Feed. It's called they help refugees and
Speaker 2: asylum seekers get employment in Australia as well as do
Speaker 2: cooking classes and experiences for the community that can go
Speaker 2: and do the experiences. And they're moving from North get
Speaker 2: into North fitz Roy at this new building. So they
Speaker 2: had like a what they called a housewarming party for
Speaker 2: the new building.
Speaker 1: Out very north what they called a woman I Love.
Speaker 2: It in the old Mosquito Bar by the Clifton Hill
Speaker 2: macas if anyone's looking for her or knows that building.
Speaker 2: So Biank is up sitting up the event and I'm
Speaker 2: at home getting dressed by myself, something i'd usually do
Speaker 2: with Bianker and ask her how I look.
Speaker 1: She needs to dress you. She doesn't need to.
Speaker 2: She doesn't need to dress me, but I like to
Speaker 2: sometimes asking does this match?
Speaker 1: It's like an outfit check, isn't it? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Okay, just to give me the thumbs up. So I
Speaker 2: was left on my own for this getting dressed on
Speaker 2: Friday night, and I decided that in the mirror I
Speaker 2: looked good with a few buttons on my button up
Speaker 2: shirt undone and a bit.
Speaker 1: Two is two is as low as you can go
Speaker 1: for a gentleman. As she's Simon cow who goes down
Speaker 1: to three.
Speaker 2: I went for three undone three, so a bit of
Speaker 2: chest was exposed.
Speaker 1: It's a lot. I mean that is your nipple line? Really,
Speaker 1: aren't you at three? You're right there? Something that's low.
Speaker 2: Do you even have hair on your chest?
Speaker 1: Check?
Speaker 2: I've only got a few little sprouts.
Speaker 1: Yeah? Did you comb them so like a ball man?
Speaker 1: Like a comb over, like a Kevin Bartlett.
Speaker 2: Well you would have noticed on Friday night paths because
Speaker 2: I left the house with the three buttons undone.
Speaker 1: Wow.
Speaker 2: Good wow.
Speaker 1: John Travolta Friday Night Fever for you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, big mistake. I may have well been wearing a
Speaker 2: big flashing red light on my head that said calling
Speaker 2: attention to myself, that said, look at me, look at me.
Speaker 1: It's a statements three undone.
Speaker 2: I did realize every person I met commented on the
Speaker 2: three buttons. Bianca started making a big fuss when she
Speaker 2: saw me. The word she used actually was brave.
Speaker 1: Right statue to you over this?
Speaker 2: And now I don't know. I know a couple of
Speaker 2: people from Banker's work, but largely I didn't know a
Speaker 2: lot of the guests at the function.
Speaker 1: They're all going to be talking about something on today
Speaker 1: at work light Did you see Jack post arrive? Three buttons? Undone?
Speaker 2: So in the first ten minutes, I'm already in this
Speaker 2: difficult position where I have to decide do I one
Speaker 2: who Obviously I should button back up.
Speaker 1: But I felt you saying go down to four. You
Speaker 1: just have the shirt open.
Speaker 2: You know, I should buckle back up. But I don't
Speaker 2: want people to think they've peer pressured me into like, oh,
Speaker 2: he thought he could pull off three and now he's
Speaker 2: gone and done it back up. Or I could leave
Speaker 2: it open and just feel the self consciousness of everybody
Speaker 2: mentioning it everywhere I go. So I spent ten minutes
Speaker 2: trying to keep the button undone. And you know what
Speaker 2: it's like anyway, when you're meeting a new group of people, and.
Speaker 1: It's hard work. That's small tool when you don't so
Speaker 1: were you left by yourself to try and mingle?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Byank is doing things like running food around because
Speaker 2: she's running the event.
Speaker 1: That is my idea of how and I bore that. Hey,
Speaker 1: where do you guys live the is it nice living there? Industry?
Speaker 2: Job?
Speaker 1: Do you do? Do you like your the compute to that?
Speaker 2: Honestly, the reason you go to the bar so much
Speaker 2: at events I gap when you don't know people is
Speaker 2: because it's something to do.
Speaker 1: Check off two minutes, then you go to the toilet again. Yeah,
Speaker 1: sometimes I've gone for sit down. I don't even need one,
Speaker 1: just have a look at my phone.
Speaker 2: Honestly, Sometimes I started walking and I thinking, I don't
Speaker 2: even know where I'm walking. I don't know where I'm walking.
Speaker 2: I just got to keep walking because I don't know anybody,
Speaker 2: so I might as well go back to the bar again.
Speaker 1: Then you got three buttons under then you're getting drunk, So.
Speaker 2: One of my trips to the toilet to hide. I
Speaker 2: looked in the mirror and I thought, all right, that's it.
Speaker 2: Buttons are going back up and I just have to
Speaker 2: suck it up.
Speaker 1: And then did you have a better night? No?
Speaker 2: Well, I'm still doing that thing where I'm walking around
Speaker 2: just awkward talking.
Speaker 1: So what have you learned from it? Are you now
Speaker 1: going to commit to the three buttons undone?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm going out actually with that collar button pretty
Speaker 2: much gone out.
Speaker 1: On the other ways.
