<v Speaker 1>Hey, this is the Christian O'Connell show podcast Now.

0:00:27.565 --> 0:00:30.165
<v Speaker 2>Yesterday Rio went to someone for the first time that

0:00:30.325 --> 0:00:33.845
<v Speaker 2>in the UK, this was the highlight of my childhood.

0:00:34.525 --> 0:00:38.205
<v Speaker 1>We call them car boot sales. And it's a farmer's field.

0:00:38.405 --> 0:00:42.565
<v Speaker 2>Right, and it's car boots opened up and anyone can

0:00:42.644 --> 0:00:45.004
<v Speaker 2>rock up. You pay like five bucks to get onto

0:00:45.004 --> 0:00:47.644
<v Speaker 2>this farmer's field and there'd be hundreds of people doing this, okay,

0:00:48.085 --> 0:00:51.365
<v Speaker 2>selling tap basically from the car boot.

0:00:51.925 --> 0:00:54.885
<v Speaker 3>I've never seen anything like that in my entire life.

0:00:54.925 --> 0:00:57.444
<v Speaker 2>Honestly, when your dad or Mumo go listen Tom, We're

0:00:57.445 --> 0:00:58.285
<v Speaker 2>going to go to carbooks.

0:00:58.285 --> 0:00:58.925
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god.

0:00:59.725 --> 0:01:03.245
<v Speaker 2>Because suddenly as a kid you're like two dollars pocket money,

0:01:03.525 --> 0:01:04.645
<v Speaker 2>you felt like a millionaire.

0:01:04.925 --> 0:01:05.645
<v Speaker 4>It goes fast.

0:01:05.685 --> 0:01:07.605
<v Speaker 2>I remember once when I was ten, coming away with

0:01:07.645 --> 0:01:12.045
<v Speaker 2>a load of windscreen wipers for car I couldn't obviously have,

0:01:12.845 --> 0:01:15.084
<v Speaker 2>but we didn't even need because they were just one.

0:01:15.165 --> 0:01:19.685
<v Speaker 2>But that's a great guy was selling windscreen wipers.

0:01:19.725 --> 0:01:23.565
<v Speaker 1>Incredible. I mention for years by the millennium Vulga.

0:01:23.565 --> 0:01:27.245
<v Speaker 2>There's some random windscreen wipers that I got a car

0:01:27.325 --> 0:01:27.965
<v Speaker 2>boot sale.

0:01:28.005 --> 0:01:29.285
<v Speaker 4>We had it. Well, I guess I had a similar

0:01:29.285 --> 0:01:30.365
<v Speaker 4>experience because we were.

0:01:30.365 --> 0:01:31.565
<v Speaker 1>So what would you call it here?

0:01:31.925 --> 0:01:33.485
<v Speaker 4>Well, I don't know, pats boot sale.

0:01:33.645 --> 0:01:34.005
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:01:34.085 --> 0:01:36.765
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, there was a big well out of Nearcastlemaine, and

0:01:36.805 --> 0:01:38.765
<v Speaker 3>that was we're just driving along, We're going to a cafe,

0:01:38.845 --> 0:01:41.285
<v Speaker 3>and then we see this sign that just says boot market,

0:01:41.645 --> 0:01:42.325
<v Speaker 3>and then all.

0:01:42.205 --> 0:01:44.205
<v Speaker 4>These cars, like you said, in this field, I.

0:01:44.205 --> 0:01:48.125
<v Speaker 1>Was, we're gone. It's a scene.

0:01:48.445 --> 0:01:52.565
<v Speaker 3>And there was this crusty old man in an Orange

0:01:52.645 --> 0:01:56.085
<v Speaker 3>Commodore and he had like maybe hundreds and hundreds of

0:01:56.125 --> 0:01:57.725
<v Speaker 3>vinyls just in his car book.

0:01:57.885 --> 0:02:00.725
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's literally the shop is somebody's car. Boot is

0:02:01.045 --> 0:02:03.525
<v Speaker 2>all they were. And as you're wandering around, it's lots

0:02:03.565 --> 0:02:06.085
<v Speaker 2>of random tax of all sorts.

0:02:06.285 --> 0:02:09.204
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, they're not exactly like a farmer market where it

0:02:09.764 --> 0:02:10.645
<v Speaker 3>isn't all good.

0:02:10.764 --> 0:02:12.805
<v Speaker 4>It looks like just stuff they had.

0:02:13.965 --> 0:02:18.765
<v Speaker 2>No one pays whatever they're asking for. You see everywhere

0:02:18.765 --> 0:02:21.885
<v Speaker 2>you go people like negotiating, and yet we don't do

0:02:21.965 --> 0:02:25.565
<v Speaker 2>this in big brand shops. You just pay it for

0:02:25.645 --> 0:02:28.405
<v Speaker 2>some reason because you're in a field and it's just

0:02:28.485 --> 0:02:30.605
<v Speaker 2>and they're sat in their cars. You think it's okay,

0:02:31.045 --> 0:02:33.805
<v Speaker 2>and it's it's like it's like bucks, it's sense yeh,

0:02:34.165 --> 0:02:35.845
<v Speaker 2>I'm only going to pay one butt for that and

0:02:36.045 --> 0:02:38.405
<v Speaker 2>like one dollar fifty, Yeah, because how do you value

0:02:38.445 --> 0:02:39.165
<v Speaker 2>so like you go?

0:02:39.725 --> 0:02:40.805
<v Speaker 4>Who said you can do?

0:02:41.525 --> 0:02:42.365
<v Speaker 1>Just from his boot?

0:02:42.605 --> 0:02:46.044
<v Speaker 2>And also it's such a random arrade of stuff there, yes,

0:02:46.405 --> 0:02:48.165
<v Speaker 2>like car batteries.

0:02:48.045 --> 0:02:50.525
<v Speaker 4>Just old clothes, shoes, shoes.

0:02:50.605 --> 0:02:54.005
<v Speaker 2>Sometimes there's one shoe, old roller boots. It's like an

0:02:54.005 --> 0:02:56.925
<v Speaker 2>op shop that's been emptied in the farmer's field exactly.

0:02:56.925 --> 0:02:59.445

<v Speaker 4>I bought it from this this lovely old man.

0:03:03.565 --> 0:03:07.285
<v Speaker 2>I must say, what the crusty he just said, he's crusty.

0:03:08.005 --> 0:03:09.005
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I bought.

0:03:09.445 --> 0:03:12.365
<v Speaker 4>I couldn't resist. It costs too much money, I must say.

0:03:12.365 --> 0:03:14.685
<v Speaker 3>But it was a hard copy of He said, these

0:03:14.685 --> 0:03:16.565

<v Speaker 3>our Don Bradman. The gospel according to Cricket One was

0:03:32.165 --> 0:03:34.845

<v Speaker 1>that you get from old final.

0:03:51.125 --> 0:03:53.365
<v Speaker 2>I thought you were saying that Don Bradman had recorded

0:03:53.405 --> 0:03:54.445
<v Speaker 2>an albums.

<v Speaker 1>Thanks. Can I know what you did as well?

0:06:42.245 --> 0:06:44.284
<v Speaker 2>I was just a Friday's podcast on the way to

0:06:44.364 --> 0:06:47.604
<v Speaker 2>work this morning. You're real we're talking about how much

0:06:47.645 --> 0:06:50.044
<v Speaker 2>you loved the seven eleven coffee, and pats was talking

0:06:50.044 --> 0:06:53.404
<v Speaker 2>about her egg and lettuce sandwich. Christian, my husband is

0:06:53.404 --> 0:06:56.525
<v Speaker 2>a trucky and even eat every day has a seven

0:06:56.565 --> 0:07:00.405
<v Speaker 2>eleven coffee swears by. If you're driving like that all

0:07:00.525 --> 0:07:02.844
<v Speaker 2>day drive on the roads around here, then you have

0:07:02.924 --> 0:07:06.365
<v Speaker 2>to have a good instant coffee. Also tow Patsy seven

0:07:06.404 --> 0:07:09.324
<v Speaker 2>eleven does the best egg and let us sandwich.

0:07:09.364 --> 0:07:11.365
<v Speaker 1>By the way, I have to try this thing is

0:07:11.485 --> 0:07:11.885
<v Speaker 1>now an.

0:07:11.765 --> 0:07:15.205
<v Speaker 2>Hour ago we did a taste test blind taste test

0:07:15.765 --> 0:07:18.085
<v Speaker 2>for coffee and I have to say it was the

0:07:18.125 --> 0:07:22.245
<v Speaker 2>most poorly run coffee tastest because Kate and the producer

0:07:22.285 --> 0:07:26.405
<v Speaker 2>thought it was okay to give Patsy cold coffee. They've

0:07:26.405 --> 0:07:29.005
<v Speaker 2>been on the side for forty five minutes. I don't

0:07:29.005 --> 0:07:31.645
<v Speaker 2>feel we've done this correctly. I think it needs to

0:07:31.645 --> 0:07:32.204
<v Speaker 2>be done again.
