Speaker 1: Hi day, Hello, Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

2
00:00:05,280 --> 00:00:07,360
Speaker 2: All right, so well we've got the still trending where

3
00:00:07,640 --> 00:00:09,600
Speaker 2: it's kind of like the second part of the hangover

4
00:00:09,640 --> 00:00:13,680
Speaker 2: from yesterday's three topic Tuesday. Things you couldn't go anywhere

5
00:00:13,720 --> 00:00:16,160
Speaker 2: near in your home? For me, it was all about

6
00:00:16,160 --> 00:00:18,960
Speaker 2: the music center, that massive music center that used to

7
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:21,720
Speaker 2: be the entire length of the front room wall, and

8
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:24,480
Speaker 2: it was the settings on the graphic equalizer. Couldn't go

9
00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:27,760
Speaker 2: anywhere near that. That was my dad's domain. So what couldn't

10
00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:30,600
Speaker 2: you touch at home? Patsy? Please share what you said?

11
00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:32,440
Speaker 2: Was yesterdabout your dad and what he had a collection of.

12
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:35,360
Speaker 3: Oh, his tobacco pipes. He had a collection of tobacco

13
00:00:35,479 --> 00:00:38,800
Speaker 3: pipes and they were placed very carefully on mum's lovely

14
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:41,400
Speaker 3: wooden sideboard. But he had them at a certain angle,

15
00:00:41,760 --> 00:00:44,199
Speaker 3: so he knew that if you'd fiddled picked one up,

16
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:47,240
Speaker 3: or if my brothers tried to smoke one, he knew

17
00:00:47,360 --> 00:00:50,080
Speaker 3: because they're on an exact sort of right angle.

18
00:00:50,479 --> 00:00:53,920
Speaker 2: Things parents had as well. Sideboards. Do we still have

19
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:58,160
Speaker 2: sideboards the younger generation? Jackie, you still loving a sideboard?

20
00:00:58,160 --> 00:01:01,400
Speaker 2: Because sideboard the phrase side board means your nan and

21
00:01:01,480 --> 00:01:04,280
Speaker 2: granddad and your mom doesn't it it's a it's a certain phrase.

22
00:01:04,319 --> 00:01:07,520
Speaker 4: The sideboard my mum and dad's sideboard was this old

23
00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:10,480
Speaker 4: sewing machine that I guess got passed down through the families,

24
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:12,320
Speaker 4: one of the ones where it still had the foot

25
00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:16,600
Speaker 4: pedales where you could bring. Yeah, and then they use

26
00:01:16,640 --> 00:01:17,720
Speaker 4: that as their sideboard.

27
00:01:17,840 --> 00:01:21,680
Speaker 2: Yeah. I obviously chat to my mum now in England

28
00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 2: is via zoom every week and I still I always

29
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:28,720
Speaker 2: ask her to sit just in front of the old

30
00:01:28,800 --> 00:01:31,520
Speaker 2: sideboard because it just reminds me of still being a kid.

31
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:32,240
Speaker 5: Mom.

32
00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:34,160
Speaker 2: She sits just in front of the sideboard that has

33
00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:37,080
Speaker 2: been there since I was a young kid. Yeah, sideboards

34
00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:40,679
Speaker 2: and nest of occasionals. Those tables within tables within tables,

35
00:01:41,040 --> 00:01:44,800
Speaker 2: things that only exist in you naningrad. Yes, that's it.

36
00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 2: You don't see them in home. We've got a nest

37
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:50,400
Speaker 2: of occasionals. I'd never have a thing that was a

38
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:52,120
Speaker 2: table that a smaller table another too.

39
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:54,160
Speaker 4: What was the need why did Yeah?

40
00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:55,480
Speaker 2: Because it didn't get used.

41
00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:57,960
Speaker 4: You couldn't keep stuff on those smaller tables because they

42
00:01:57,960 --> 00:01:59,240
Speaker 4: had to shift back under the.

43
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,040
Speaker 2: Y had the umber lumpas come around for to watch

44
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,320

57
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:40,880
Speaker 2: it sounds like we had a very similar upbringing. The

58
00:02:40,919 --> 00:02:42,959
Speaker 2: thing that I could never go anywhere near was the

59
00:02:43,000 --> 00:02:44,639
Speaker 2: lawn mower. Yeah, it was the same for me. My

60
00:02:44,720 --> 00:02:46,560
Speaker 2: dad actually told me it was more dangerous than a

61
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:52,840
Speaker 2: helicopter blade. Yeah, never go near the lawnmower, like I

62
00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,200

81
00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:50,120
Speaker 2: How there were sideboards. It's just just the word the

82
00:03:50,160 --> 00:03:52,760
Speaker 2: phrase the image sideboard says to me, Mom and dad.

83
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 2: Same with those that thing called a nest of occasionals,

84
00:03:56,400 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 2: which was a table, smaller table within it and in

85
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:00,840
Speaker 2: a smaller table with than that one as Russian dolls,

86
00:04:01,640 --> 00:04:04,480
Speaker 2: and Patsy just came to the studio during that song,

87
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:08,000
Speaker 2: so that she has not one, not two, but three sideboards.

88
00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:10,480

93
00:04:24,480 --> 00:04:26,360
Speaker 2: Yeah. Do you know what'd be really nice? I think

94
00:04:26,360 --> 00:04:27,839
Speaker 2: it'd be grateful. We could for the next kind of

95
00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:32,120

00:05:03,640 --> 00:05:04,120
Speaker 5: How are you.

00:05:04,200 --> 00:05:06,480
Speaker 2: I'm good mate, you're having a good week, Yes.

Speaker 5: I am, thank you all right, so great.

112
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:09,560
Speaker 2: Growing up? What couldn't you touch?

113
00:05:10,440 --> 00:05:12,479
Speaker 5: When we were growing up, my father was a member

114
00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:16,200
Speaker 5: of the Freemasons and he had a black briefcase. Now,

115
00:05:16,279 --> 00:05:18,680
Speaker 5: we were never allowed to shoop, we were never allowed

116
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:20,840
Speaker 5: to know what was in it. So I used to

117
00:05:20,839 --> 00:05:23,480
Speaker 5: ask my mum and she'd say that secret men's business.

118
00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:26,760
Speaker 5: So we never ever knew. And when he passed away,

119
00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:29,600
Speaker 5: my twin sister and I opened it and in it

120
00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 5: was a pair of white gloves and a Bible.

121
00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,760
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, they're so secretive, the Freemasons.

122
00:05:36,800 --> 00:05:38,520
Speaker 2: They are around for all the world.

123
00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,200
Speaker 3: The Freemasons, they normally keep there a printing. There was there,

124
00:05:41,200 --> 00:05:42,120
Speaker 3: no an there.

125
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:48,080
Speaker 5: You don't get an apron unless you're a master, which

126
00:05:48,160 --> 00:05:52,039
Speaker 5: I learned later on from my husband's father was a Mason,

127
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:55,480
Speaker 5: so they usually would keep their jewels in it, special

128
00:05:55,560 --> 00:05:58,080
Speaker 5: jewels they get awarded as they move up the masonry.

129
00:05:58,400 --> 00:06:01,880
Speaker 3: My dad was a master, my grandfather. Yes, oh wow,

130
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:04,120
Speaker 3: where do you think the old Godfather?

131
00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,719
Speaker 2: Yeah, they called it the Freemasons, but you know the

132
00:06:09,760 --> 00:06:12,640
Speaker 2: police known as the Godfather family.

133
00:06:12,520 --> 00:06:15,880
Speaker 4: Boo me into that chiropractice the way of the freemace.

134
00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:18,440
Speaker 2: Case with their jewels and gloves, hurting gloves, so it's

135
00:06:18,440 --> 00:06:23,000
Speaker 2: big black leather gloves are busting people up, all right.

136
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:25,479
Speaker 5: It was a good excuse to just go for the

137
00:06:25,480 --> 00:06:26,719
Speaker 5: boys to get together for a drink.

138
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:28,640
Speaker 2: It probably wasn't even a freemason, just had a couple

139
00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:30,200
Speaker 2: of those things just to make it look like that.

140
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,680
Speaker 2: Let's go to I hope I pronounced this right, is it? Yepper?

141
00:06:34,000 --> 00:06:35,760
Speaker 6: That is spot on, mate, Thank.

142
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:38,159
Speaker 2: You very much. Yepper. What couldn't you go anywhere near

143
00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:39,880
Speaker 2: when you've grown up? What weren't you allowed to touch?

144
00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:42,560
Speaker 6: We were not allowed to touch when we were driving

145
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:44,920
Speaker 6: and sitting in the back seat in my grandmother's car,

146
00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:49,200
Speaker 6: we weren't allowed to touch the dials for the settings for

147
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:52,320
Speaker 6: the seats, well, the front seats. Yeah, because she told

148
00:06:52,400 --> 00:06:54,480
Speaker 6: us that if we did while the car was moving,

149
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:55,440
Speaker 6: it would roll over.

150
00:06:59,400 --> 00:07:01,680
Speaker 2: That's that's amazing when I've not heard that before, But yeah,

151
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:03,320
Speaker 2: I can imagine. It was just it was just when

152
00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,560
Speaker 2: nowadays this all electronic, isn't it. You move the little

153
00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:07,599
Speaker 2: buttons forward and backwards for the settings on the seats

154
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:09,520
Speaker 2: and it was just that that round dial.

155
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:11,440
Speaker 4: I've still got that twist one.

156
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,280
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll be careful Jack, don't make around that too much.

157
