WEBVTT - FULL: 119 Reasons

0:00:05.200 --> 0:00:06.880
<v Speaker 1>It's a Christian Colors show.

0:00:08.560 --> 0:00:10.520
<v Speaker 2>Now, this is how we normally begin a show.

0:00:10.560 --> 0:00:14.480
<v Speaker 3>But today isn't a normal show because of the extraordinary news,

0:00:15.160 --> 0:00:17.400
<v Speaker 3>which I think surprised everyone. I think we just thought

0:00:17.400 --> 0:00:20.920
<v Speaker 3>the lateness of Dan Andrews press conference just meant more

0:00:21.000 --> 0:00:24.480
<v Speaker 3>bad news or more delayed, another cautious pause.

0:00:24.760 --> 0:00:26.160
<v Speaker 2>But the news that we are.

0:00:26.200 --> 0:00:29.920
<v Speaker 3>Coming out of it and that midnight tonight are really

0:00:30.120 --> 0:00:35.400
<v Speaker 3>out of it. We are a free give us our freedom, Melbourne.

0:00:35.880 --> 0:00:39.519
<v Speaker 3>This is a It's amazing, isn't yesterday? It was just today.

0:00:40.360 --> 0:00:43.520
<v Speaker 3>I don't think I've ever felt so connected to everyone

0:00:44.120 --> 0:00:46.680
<v Speaker 3>celebrating joyous good news at the same time.

0:00:46.720 --> 0:00:50.080
<v Speaker 4>Yep, it was everywhere. It was in the air yesterday afternoon.

0:00:50.159 --> 0:00:53.200
<v Speaker 4>Wasn't it like firing off on social media? On everybody's

0:00:53.240 --> 0:00:56.040
<v Speaker 4>group text. My wife was talking to her friends. I

0:00:56.120 --> 0:00:59.920
<v Speaker 4>was talking to my friends. It was just everywhere. Everybody

0:01:00.040 --> 0:01:01.440
<v Speaker 4>the city felt good yesterday.

0:01:01.640 --> 0:01:04.679
<v Speaker 3>And is there that six million people all happy about

0:01:04.800 --> 0:01:08.680
<v Speaker 3>one thing? That even Richmond winning the flag at the weekend,

0:01:08.959 --> 0:01:11.319
<v Speaker 3>there's still be a lot of people like hate Richmond.

0:01:11.480 --> 0:01:13.800
<v Speaker 3>They've won three in the last four years. There are

0:01:13.840 --> 0:01:16.479
<v Speaker 3>still going to be woras everyone Yesterday, all of us

0:01:16.880 --> 0:01:20.560
<v Speaker 3>were all celebrating this amazing news because all of us

0:01:20.880 --> 0:01:23.480
<v Speaker 3>have had to go through the last what four or

0:01:23.520 --> 0:01:26.760
<v Speaker 3>five six months of utter hell for some people, a

0:01:26.880 --> 0:01:29.959
<v Speaker 3>really really tough head as well. But yesterday was just

0:01:30.800 --> 0:01:34.360
<v Speaker 3>we've lived through history. We've actually lived through history. It's

0:01:34.400 --> 0:01:37.840
<v Speaker 3>been an extraordinary year. But yesterday afternoon I think kind

0:01:37.880 --> 0:01:40.160
<v Speaker 3>of took us all by surprise because I think everyone

0:01:40.280 --> 0:01:42.039
<v Speaker 3>just thought it would be more news about the testing

0:01:42.080 --> 0:01:45.080
<v Speaker 3>in the northern suburbs. So when Dan came out very

0:01:45.160 --> 0:01:47.760
<v Speaker 3>late yesterday the afternoon and then announced that we were

0:01:47.800 --> 0:01:50.400
<v Speaker 3>out of this and very very soon, and then suddenly

0:01:50.560 --> 0:01:53.400
<v Speaker 3>everyone was talking about get on the beers. Ye. Dan

0:01:53.480 --> 0:01:56.080
<v Speaker 3>Andrew's main message seems to be no, I'm gasha not

0:01:56.160 --> 0:01:57.160
<v Speaker 3>the beer isn't enough for me.

0:01:57.240 --> 0:01:59.400
<v Speaker 2>I'm going top shelf.

0:02:00.040 --> 0:02:00.760
<v Speaker 4>Again for a week.

0:02:03.640 --> 0:02:05.280
<v Speaker 2>And then Brett Sutton came out.

0:02:05.400 --> 0:02:08.760
<v Speaker 3>His main message was science, science, science, Get on the beers.

0:02:09.080 --> 0:02:12.520
<v Speaker 3>Then some guy came out from a university who crunches

0:02:12.560 --> 0:02:15.399
<v Speaker 3>all the numbers, and his was numbers, numbers, data, Get

0:02:15.440 --> 0:02:17.520
<v Speaker 3>on the beers. This year we've been told to follow

0:02:17.560 --> 0:02:21.960
<v Speaker 3>the science. The site says get on the beers. Did anyone,

0:02:22.080 --> 0:02:24.120
<v Speaker 3>did anyone have a freedom and drink last night.

0:02:24.760 --> 0:02:26.079
<v Speaker 2>I had a beer last night.

0:02:26.200 --> 0:02:28.840
<v Speaker 5>Oh okayd it was the best beer you've tasted in

0:02:28.919 --> 0:02:29.680
<v Speaker 5>Agent joined it.

0:02:29.720 --> 0:02:32.000
<v Speaker 3>I stood out of my deck and I raised it

0:02:32.120 --> 0:02:33.640
<v Speaker 3>up to the skies like I thought.

0:02:33.480 --> 0:02:34.600
<v Speaker 2>Everyone in Melbury had been doing it.

0:02:34.680 --> 0:02:36.480
<v Speaker 3>I thought, is there everyone doing it? It is at

0:02:36.480 --> 0:02:39.160
<v Speaker 3>Monday night, still going a week to get through anyway,

0:02:39.240 --> 0:02:42.720
<v Speaker 3>so a very very different show for us today. We

0:02:42.760 --> 0:02:45.799
<v Speaker 3>worked out yesterday. It's something like one hundred and nineteen

0:02:45.919 --> 0:02:49.760
<v Speaker 3>days in the second lockdown, which has been the hardest,

0:02:49.760 --> 0:02:50.720
<v Speaker 3>hardest lockdown in it.

0:02:50.880 --> 0:02:51.840
<v Speaker 2>I do appreciate as well.

0:02:51.880 --> 0:02:54.320
<v Speaker 3>As much as we are so happy today, there are

0:02:54.320 --> 0:02:55.560
<v Speaker 3>a lot of people that are going to take a

0:02:55.600 --> 0:02:57.720
<v Speaker 3>lot of time and support to get back on their

0:02:57.760 --> 0:02:59.280
<v Speaker 3>feet over the next couple of weeks and the next

0:02:59.280 --> 0:03:01.480
<v Speaker 3>couple of months. Melbourne needs to be turned back on,

0:03:01.760 --> 0:03:04.480
<v Speaker 3>to be rebooted. There's any way that we can help

0:03:04.560 --> 0:03:06.240
<v Speaker 3>do that to any small or medium business, to let

0:03:06.280 --> 0:03:07.920
<v Speaker 3>people that know that you back open for business.

0:03:08.120 --> 0:03:09.240
<v Speaker 2>Please let us know this morning.

0:03:09.360 --> 0:03:10.959
<v Speaker 3>But the big thing we're going to do today then

0:03:11.639 --> 0:03:13.600
<v Speaker 3>even if this is still going on at nine o'clock,

0:03:13.600 --> 0:03:16.160
<v Speaker 3>are stale now until it's done. One hundred and nineteen

0:03:16.240 --> 0:03:19.800
<v Speaker 3>days in lockdown for our second lockdown is extraordinary. We

0:03:19.919 --> 0:03:21.959
<v Speaker 3>today are trying to try and find one hundred and

0:03:22.000 --> 0:03:24.800
<v Speaker 3>nineteen reasons why Melbourne is awesome.

0:03:25.000 --> 0:03:26.480
<v Speaker 2>One hundred and nineteen reasons.

0:03:26.480 --> 0:03:29.200
<v Speaker 3>We're going to lock down one hundred nineteen reasons why

0:03:29.320 --> 0:03:31.200
<v Speaker 3>this city is an awesome place.

0:03:31.520 --> 0:03:32.639
<v Speaker 2>Jack, you kick us off.

0:03:33.080 --> 0:03:37.640
<v Speaker 4>I will say the Melbourne dress code black from head

0:03:37.640 --> 0:03:39.800
<v Speaker 4>to toe, maybe a little bit of gray, maybe a

0:03:39.840 --> 0:03:41.920
<v Speaker 4>little bit of dark blue, maybe a little bit of white.

0:03:41.920 --> 0:03:44.640
<v Speaker 4>For somebody who can't color coordinate in is color blind,

0:03:44.880 --> 0:03:46.840
<v Speaker 4>the Melbourne dress code is perfect for me.

0:03:46.960 --> 0:03:49.440
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I had no idea when I moved here. My

0:03:49.520 --> 0:03:52.560
<v Speaker 3>wardrobe in the UK was gray black. With a tiny minute,

0:03:52.560 --> 0:03:54.600
<v Speaker 3>it's going to get so. I was managed to integrate

0:03:54.720 --> 0:03:55.440
<v Speaker 3>very very easily.

0:03:55.480 --> 0:03:58.760
<v Speaker 4>The city called you, Yes, Melbourne, Melbyn chose you chose

0:03:58.800 --> 0:04:01.480

<v Speaker 4>But yeah, so so the reason I love now, then

0:06:28.000 --> 0:06:28.440
<v Speaker 4>is the weather.

0:06:28.640 --> 0:06:30.120
<v Speaker 3>We've got four seasons one day.

0:06:30.160 --> 0:06:31.040
<v Speaker 12>It's nothing better.

0:06:31.279 --> 0:06:34.760
<v Speaker 3>You're quite right, actually, the seasons, four seasons in one day.

0:06:34.800 --> 0:06:37.480
<v Speaker 3>You never quite know hour to hour what's what it's

0:06:37.520 --> 0:06:40.599
<v Speaker 3>going to be. You get the howling wind sometimes as well,

0:06:41.040 --> 0:06:44.120
<v Speaker 3>and then you get rain, snow, sleep, all in one day. Yes,

0:06:44.279 --> 0:06:47.200
<v Speaker 3>four seasons in one day, Rosie, that's a great one.

0:06:47.960 --> 0:06:49.839
<v Speaker 2>Thank you, all right, take care, well done.

0:06:50.440 --> 0:06:53.440
<v Speaker 1>The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

0:06:53.760 --> 0:06:56.560
<v Speaker 3>All right, so one hundred and nineteen days in the

0:06:56.600 --> 0:06:58.880
<v Speaker 3>second Lockdown, and we are trying to find one hundred

0:06:58.880 --> 0:07:01.880
<v Speaker 3>and nineteen reasons why this city is great. We're asking

0:07:01.880 --> 0:07:05.279
<v Speaker 3>a call in give your reasons why Melbourne is awesome.

0:07:05.320 --> 0:07:08.080
<v Speaker 3>And we obviously we know about the MCG, okay, but

0:07:08.200 --> 0:07:10.800
<v Speaker 3>what is it about the MCG? Is it the pies?

0:07:11.280 --> 0:07:13.600
<v Speaker 3>For me, the thing that's also about the MCG is

0:07:13.640 --> 0:07:16.320
<v Speaker 3>when I first went there, it was there are two

0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:18.760
<v Speaker 3>different types of time to go to the MCG. Right,

0:07:18.800 --> 0:07:20.960
<v Speaker 3>there's in the afternoon, which is amazing see a game,

0:07:21.120 --> 0:07:23.520
<v Speaker 3>But for me, it was Friday night. The first time

0:07:23.560 --> 0:07:25.560
<v Speaker 3>I did a Friday night game under the lights at

0:07:25.560 --> 0:07:28.600
<v Speaker 3>the MCG. You're sat there having a bit. It's incredible,

0:07:28.840 --> 0:07:33.520
<v Speaker 3>it's illuminated, you see it even more vividly. So one

0:07:33.560 --> 0:07:35.680
<v Speaker 3>of the reasons I've got many reasons why we moved here,

0:07:35.720 --> 0:07:38.320
<v Speaker 3>but one for me is Friday night under the lights

0:07:38.360 --> 0:07:41.720
<v Speaker 3>at the MCG. There is nothing quite like that special atmosphere.

0:07:41.760 --> 0:07:43.720
<v Speaker 4>We're up to one hundred and fifteen to go.

0:07:44.760 --> 0:07:47.040
<v Speaker 3>One hundred and fifteen more reasons. That's all we need

0:07:47.080 --> 0:07:49.600
<v Speaker 3>from you this morning. By nine, Shane Crawford hows some

0:07:49.720 --> 0:07:50.040
<v Speaker 3>for us.

0:07:50.080 --> 0:07:52.240
<v Speaker 13>The thing I love about the city of Melbourne is

0:07:52.640 --> 0:07:53.160
<v Speaker 13>the people.

0:07:53.600 --> 0:07:54.240
<v Speaker 12>It really is.

0:07:54.320 --> 0:07:57.800
<v Speaker 13>It's all about the people. The people give the city heart.

0:07:58.600 --> 0:08:01.840
<v Speaker 13>They're so welcoming and friendly and funny. There's lots of

0:08:01.880 --> 0:08:06.000
<v Speaker 13>funny people out there. Passionate, they care. We've seen what

0:08:06.040 --> 0:08:10.800
<v Speaker 13>we've just been through is how caring everyone is and accepting.

0:08:11.080 --> 0:08:15.200
<v Speaker 13>We accept other states, other cities, people from all around.

0:08:14.880 --> 0:08:16.600
<v Speaker 3>The world with open arms.

0:08:17.160 --> 0:08:21.840
<v Speaker 13>We've even accepted a bloody Englishman onto our radio airwaves

0:08:21.920 --> 0:08:25.080
<v Speaker 13>and we've made him number one by listening in and

0:08:25.120 --> 0:08:26.640
<v Speaker 13>loving and adopting him.

0:08:27.080 --> 0:08:32.240
<v Speaker 3>That's what Melbourne is all about. It is passionate, but

0:08:32.320 --> 0:08:33.680
<v Speaker 3>it's not the hallway to his health.

0:08:34.480 --> 0:08:35.679
<v Speaker 4>He's in a bathroom school.

0:08:37.640 --> 0:08:41.559
<v Speaker 2>So the people there from crawff Well said Cruelf Hamish Blake.

0:08:41.520 --> 0:08:45.319
<v Speaker 14>High question, it's Hamish here. Look to me, Melbourne. It's

0:08:45.360 --> 0:08:47.960
<v Speaker 14>one of the great restaurant cities of the world. The

0:08:48.040 --> 0:08:50.840
<v Speaker 14>hospitality scene is amazing. They've been doing it so tough

0:08:51.360 --> 0:08:55.600
<v Speaker 14>throughout lockdown that it really is exciting for me. I

0:08:55.640 --> 0:08:58.880
<v Speaker 14>mean to know that those restaurants and amazing cafes and

0:08:58.920 --> 0:09:02.160
<v Speaker 14>pubs will be bouncing back, I mean throughout Lockdown as well.

0:09:02.400 --> 0:09:04.319
<v Speaker 14>How incredible was it that so many of your favorite

0:09:04.360 --> 0:09:07.679
<v Speaker 14>restaurants just pivoted and they did home delivery and you

0:09:07.720 --> 0:09:09.440
<v Speaker 14>didn't have to get dressed up, go out into the

0:09:09.480 --> 0:09:14.000
<v Speaker 14>cold and go to the restaurant. And actually, oh my god,

0:09:14.320 --> 0:09:17.240
<v Speaker 14>oh that was amazing Lockdown, What have we done? What

0:09:17.240 --> 0:09:18.320
<v Speaker 14>have we done? We were getting in it home.

0:09:18.360 --> 0:09:19.240
<v Speaker 1>We've got to go out now.

0:09:20.880 --> 0:09:22.439
<v Speaker 2>And the second one from Homus Blake.

0:09:22.480 --> 0:09:25.680
<v Speaker 14>Another thing Christian Hamish, and another thing I love about Melbourne

0:09:25.720 --> 0:09:27.640
<v Speaker 14>is look, I love bike riding. There's a lot of

0:09:27.640 --> 0:09:29.640
<v Speaker 14>great bike rides you can do in Melbourne, and with

0:09:29.720 --> 0:09:32.680
<v Speaker 14>the kids too, I mean just up and on a

0:09:32.720 --> 0:09:35.560
<v Speaker 14>bike track along one of the many rivers or creeks.

0:09:36.679 --> 0:09:39.080
<v Speaker 14>I know Jack lives in a city, he'd probably enjoy

0:09:39.120 --> 0:09:41.640
<v Speaker 14>getting on a bike on a bike track. He does

0:09:41.679 --> 0:09:43.880
<v Speaker 14>live near some Unfortunately, he doesn't have a bike anymore.

0:09:43.920 --> 0:09:46.720
<v Speaker 14>I gave him one for no cost and it got stolen.

0:09:46.880 --> 0:09:48.959
<v Speaker 14>He didn't he carelessly, He just let it get stolen.

0:09:49.120 --> 0:09:51.240
<v Speaker 14>So he probably hasn't mentioned that on the show before,

0:09:51.240 --> 0:09:54.600
<v Speaker 14>but he did just basically give away a bike I gave.

0:09:54.520 --> 0:09:55.280
<v Speaker 1>Him to a criminal.

0:09:55.400 --> 0:09:56.800
<v Speaker 14>But that's the thing I love too, just knowing that

0:09:56.880 --> 0:09:58.839
<v Speaker 14>criminal is out there somewhere riding the.

0:09:58.760 --> 0:10:02.320
<v Speaker 1>Bike, enjoying this again. It's heartwarming.

0:10:02.360 --> 0:10:04.760
<v Speaker 14>I hope, I hope on one of one of the

0:10:04.840 --> 0:10:06.959
<v Speaker 14>rides he had to think about his life choices and.

0:10:06.920 --> 0:10:09.640
<v Speaker 1>Turned his life around. Got on your jack for making

0:10:09.679 --> 0:10:10.120
<v Speaker 1>that happen.

0:10:10.880 --> 0:10:11.920
<v Speaker 3>Is that right about the bike?

0:10:12.080 --> 0:10:15.360
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, but that happened five years ago, and he said

0:10:15.480 --> 0:10:16.920
<v Speaker 4>he gave me a bike for free, gave it to

0:10:17.000 --> 0:10:19.040
<v Speaker 4>me as a birthday present, and it was the secondhand

0:10:19.080 --> 0:10:22.960
<v Speaker 4>bike he didn't want anymore. But I do miss that

0:10:23.000 --> 0:10:24.720
<v Speaker 4>bike and I was sad to see it go.

0:10:25.320 --> 0:10:27.080
<v Speaker 3>Did you not change it up? I bet you didn't

0:10:27.120 --> 0:10:27.560
<v Speaker 3>change it up.

0:10:27.600 --> 0:10:29.920
<v Speaker 4>I did. I had one of those chains that looks

0:10:30.000 --> 0:10:31.760
<v Speaker 4>like it's about that thing.

0:10:31.880 --> 0:10:33.680
<v Speaker 3>Oh no, the weakest ones in the world.

0:10:33.679 --> 0:10:35.040
<v Speaker 4>Weakest ones in the world, not.

0:10:34.920 --> 0:10:36.640
<v Speaker 3>One of those big ones where you need like an

0:10:36.679 --> 0:10:38.920
<v Speaker 3>oxy assettling welding equipment. You haven't got one of those

0:10:38.920 --> 0:10:39.880
<v Speaker 3>big u ones.

0:10:39.679 --> 0:10:41.440
<v Speaker 4>The ones that look like a bit of floss that

0:10:41.520 --> 0:10:41.959
<v Speaker 4>go around.

0:10:44.040 --> 0:10:48.239

0:11:23.200 --> 0:11:23.880

0:11:27.679 --> 0:11:30.120

0:12:40.720 --> 0:12:45.520
<v Speaker 16>the best Australian rock. Not only that, it has attracted

0:12:45.559 --> 0:12:47.360
<v Speaker 16>some of the hottest beans in the world, such as

0:12:47.480 --> 0:12:50.120
<v Speaker 16>Kiss and I'm going to fast forward to number one.

0:12:50.440 --> 0:12:54.360
<v Speaker 16>Melbourne has attracted the best radio station ever in Goal

0:12:54.400 --> 0:12:57.760
<v Speaker 16>one o four and you guys, you guys.

0:13:01.400 --> 0:13:04.480
<v Speaker 3>Justin, that's quite a lovely thing to say. And you

0:13:04.480 --> 0:13:06.360
<v Speaker 3>know what, yeah we're talking about how you know, there's

0:13:06.400 --> 0:13:09.600
<v Speaker 3>the food capital of Australia and hands down Melbourne is.

0:13:09.880 --> 0:13:13.440
<v Speaker 3>But you're right, live music, all the artists they love

0:13:13.520 --> 0:13:15.600
<v Speaker 3>coming here. They won't just do one or two nights.

0:13:15.920 --> 0:13:19.320
<v Speaker 3>Elton when Elton was it you I think he left

0:13:19.320 --> 0:13:22.440
<v Speaker 3>the country, came back about three times and various parts,

0:13:22.440 --> 0:13:24.800
<v Speaker 3>not just in Melbourne itself at Margaret Core, but he

0:13:24.880 --> 0:13:26.920
<v Speaker 3>was going out into the wineries. We saw what Rochford,

0:13:26.920 --> 0:13:28.880
<v Speaker 3>you know, it was going all over Victoria's. So it's

0:13:28.880 --> 0:13:31.760
<v Speaker 3>the music capital of Australia. I would say that the

0:13:31.800 --> 0:13:34.679
<v Speaker 3>Southern Hemisphere there's nowhere quite like Melbourne. You know, the

0:13:35.000 --> 0:13:37.120
<v Speaker 3>all the sports that we've got here, but the music

0:13:37.120 --> 0:13:39.440
<v Speaker 3>as well, you're right. I mean the corner stop just

0:13:39.440 --> 0:13:41.280
<v Speaker 3>down the road from us as well. Corn I tell

0:13:41.360 --> 0:13:44.280
<v Speaker 3>us that's some amazing live music over the years. Justin,

0:13:44.360 --> 0:13:49.120

<v Speaker 3>is why we are ticking off. We're trying to find

0:14:20.320 --> 0:14:24.920
<v Speaker 3>one hundred and nineteen reasons why Melbourne is awesome. Patsy

0:14:25.160 --> 0:14:28.280
<v Speaker 3>named the coffee It is a city of some amazing

0:14:28.760 --> 0:14:29.560
<v Speaker 3>coffee places.

0:14:29.600 --> 0:14:31.840
<v Speaker 4>It is world famous. You go anywhere in the world

0:14:31.920 --> 0:14:34.920
<v Speaker 4>and places that are trendy, even in the cities, great

0:14:34.920 --> 0:14:38.280
<v Speaker 4>cities like New York will say we have Melbourne style coffee.

0:14:37.960 --> 0:14:39.840
<v Speaker 3>At this cap best forristas might be.

0:14:39.960 --> 0:14:41.440
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, that's an exaggeration.

0:14:42.080 --> 0:14:44.160
<v Speaker 3>I have come from London, where no one says this

0:14:44.240 --> 0:14:45.640
<v Speaker 3>is almost like it is in Melbourne.

0:14:45.680 --> 0:14:47.640
<v Speaker 4>London is it was a little slow to pick it up,

0:14:47.640 --> 0:14:50.640
<v Speaker 4>but pretty much you either you left. They started to

0:14:50.640 --> 0:14:51.600
<v Speaker 4>the other style coffee.

0:14:51.720 --> 0:14:54.080
<v Speaker 5>All the immigrants from it Italy that we had in

0:14:54.120 --> 0:14:56.560
<v Speaker 5>the fifties and sixties that brought it out. It's that

0:14:56.720 --> 0:14:58.880
<v Speaker 5>culture that they brought decades.

0:14:58.480 --> 0:15:02.560
<v Speaker 4>Ago, like mister Ronaldo McDonald, where you get your morning coffee.

0:15:02.640 --> 0:15:05.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, all the great coffee shops. Patsy gets hers every morning.

0:15:05.760 --> 0:15:08.880
<v Speaker 3>That warm brown silt from a McDonald's.

0:15:08.360 --> 0:15:10.280
<v Speaker 5>Drive through at four am is good.

0:15:10.400 --> 0:15:13.240
<v Speaker 3>But it's again it's those Italian immigrants. They talked, they

0:15:13.240 --> 0:15:14.880
<v Speaker 3>brought them when they came out here. They came out

0:15:14.920 --> 0:15:17.480
<v Speaker 3>with expressing machines. Plug them in. Everyone in Melbourne's not

0:15:17.600 --> 0:15:19.120
<v Speaker 3>what is that coffee? Before?

0:15:19.240 --> 0:15:19.400
<v Speaker 17>Then?

0:15:19.520 --> 0:15:20.640
<v Speaker 5>We're all tea drinkers.

0:15:20.720 --> 0:15:22.320
<v Speaker 3>Thank you, mister Italian immigrants.

0:15:23.240 --> 0:15:24.600
<v Speaker 4>We hadn't heard of coffee.

0:15:25.280 --> 0:15:29.120
<v Speaker 3>Jack hadn't heard of coffee.

0:15:29.160 --> 0:15:29.680
<v Speaker 18>We had not.

0:15:30.280 --> 0:15:32.440
<v Speaker 5>We didn't drink coffee.

0:15:33.160 --> 0:15:34.960
<v Speaker 4>I'll take your word for it. You were around then.

0:15:35.040 --> 0:15:37.880
<v Speaker 4>I wasn't. Thank you all right.

0:15:37.760 --> 0:15:41.800
<v Speaker 3>Then, Matt. Another reason why Melbourne is an awesome city.

0:15:42.240 --> 0:15:43.760
<v Speaker 3>It's not Sydney.

0:15:44.600 --> 0:15:46.080
<v Speaker 4>That should have been number one.

0:15:46.120 --> 0:15:51.520
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, come on, Sheila says lie On Street. If you're

0:15:51.520 --> 0:15:54.840
<v Speaker 3>talking food and coffee, name it. It's Lion Street. I

0:15:54.880 --> 0:15:57.000
<v Speaker 3>can't wait to go down there. Christ that's some Sheila,

0:15:57.320 --> 0:16:00.000
<v Speaker 3>lie On Street. You're right, amazing place, great food and coffee.

0:16:00.680 --> 0:16:06.920
<v Speaker 3>Marie Anne says Riverside Key on a Friday night. Mark

0:16:07.040 --> 0:16:12.240
<v Speaker 3>says the Christmas time, maya windows have they said they're still.

0:16:12.080 --> 0:16:13.760
<v Speaker 5>Doing it the show are doing it again?

0:16:13.880 --> 0:16:17.440
<v Speaker 3>Yes, yeah, it looks awesome. You haven't put your name here,

0:16:17.480 --> 0:16:21.040
<v Speaker 3>but you're right, Queen. Victoria Market an amazing place to watch,

0:16:21.080 --> 0:16:24.720
<v Speaker 3>the vibrancy of the city, amazing atmosphere. There's even flavors

0:16:24.720 --> 0:16:28.080
<v Speaker 3>and tastes because until the nineteen fifties that didn't exist either.

0:16:28.080 --> 0:16:30.560
<v Speaker 2>You didn't have food. Did you just add bread?

0:16:31.080 --> 0:16:34.960
<v Speaker 3>Breadnant coffee? Now? No smear avocado That only came in

0:16:35.040 --> 0:16:39.160
<v Speaker 3>nineteen seventy three, I believe. All right, so let's keep

0:16:39.160 --> 0:16:40.520
<v Speaker 3>this going after seven.

0:16:42.280 --> 0:16:45.960
<v Speaker 1>Christian Iconnell Christian o'connells show podcast.

0:16:45.600 --> 0:16:48.280
<v Speaker 3>All right and another reason then, what I'm about to

0:16:48.280 --> 0:16:51.600
<v Speaker 3>get into the race at stops the nation? Where is that?

0:16:51.720 --> 0:16:52.160
<v Speaker 2>Everyone?

0:16:53.680 --> 0:16:54.680
<v Speaker 3>Team? I was having a bit more.

0:16:55.040 --> 0:16:56.120

0:16:56.160 --> 0:16:59.800
<v Speaker 3>What did you say? Where is the race that stops ation?

0:17:00.280 --> 0:17:02.040

<v Speaker 1>Christian, Hello, Christian O'Connell show podcast.

0:23:09.240 --> 0:23:13.480
<v Speaker 3>To finding one hundred and nineteen reasons why Melbourne is awesome?

0:23:13.880 --> 0:23:16.520
<v Speaker 2>We need how many more reasons do we need to go?

0:23:16.960 --> 0:23:19.879
<v Speaker 4>We've got ninety six to go. More than halfway through.

0:23:19.760 --> 0:23:20.879
<v Speaker 2>The ninety six to go.

0:23:21.119 --> 0:23:24.680
<v Speaker 3>I've got a couple as I found out on this show,

0:23:24.720 --> 0:23:28.320
<v Speaker 3>there was a lama that just walks around Fitzroy that

0:23:28.480 --> 0:23:31.959
<v Speaker 3>is called barrick o Lama. Whether the city in Australia,

0:23:32.119 --> 0:23:34.560
<v Speaker 3>what are the city in the world has a resident

0:23:34.640 --> 0:23:38.280
<v Speaker 3>lama called barrack o Lama that just wanders around. We

0:23:38.359 --> 0:23:42.040
<v Speaker 3>had eyewitness account. It's an actual thing. The only reason

0:23:42.080 --> 0:23:44.480
<v Speaker 3>we even talked about this was an email from Scotland

0:23:44.960 --> 0:23:46.960
<v Speaker 3>where someone found out about it in a pub.

0:23:47.119 --> 0:23:48.280
<v Speaker 2>Someone had just come back.

0:23:48.119 --> 0:23:51.520
<v Speaker 3>From Melbourne telling everyone in Scottish pub in Melbourne they're crazy.

0:23:51.520 --> 0:23:54.680
<v Speaker 3>They've got lampers on the streets. So yeah, barrick o'lama.

0:23:54.760 --> 0:23:57.960
<v Speaker 2>No other city's got that. Also, don't you love?

0:23:58.080 --> 0:24:00.040
<v Speaker 3>I love? I know they're great bar sire, but we

0:24:00.080 --> 0:24:04.000
<v Speaker 3>all love a proper, small, intimate pump. I mean with

0:24:04.119 --> 0:24:06.360
<v Speaker 3>a proper jukebox as well. You put your money in

0:24:06.560 --> 0:24:08.760
<v Speaker 3>and you wait for your songs, you click through the albums.

0:24:09.040 --> 0:24:11.480
<v Speaker 3>Best pub I've been to here's an Irish pub here.

0:24:11.600 --> 0:24:13.840
<v Speaker 3>Bob Murphy took me to it yesterday. We were swapping

0:24:14.160 --> 0:24:16.359
<v Speaker 3>dates when we can finally go back to it. The

0:24:16.440 --> 0:24:19.520
<v Speaker 3>Drunken Poet just around the corner from Queen Bitmarket. It's

0:24:19.520 --> 0:24:23.520
<v Speaker 3>an amazing Irish pub with a killer jukebox, genuine Irish

0:24:23.560 --> 0:24:25.679
<v Speaker 3>staff as well. I love that pub. Can't wait to

0:24:25.720 --> 0:24:28.040
<v Speaker 3>go back in a couple of weeks time, Jackie boy.

0:24:28.080 --> 0:24:28.959

0:24:33.160 --> 0:24:35.359
<v Speaker 4>Oh my god, the best chips. The best chicken is

0:24:35.400 --> 0:24:38.240
<v Speaker 4>so good and the prices are unbelievable. You can eat

0:24:39.000 --> 0:24:40.800
<v Speaker 4>more than you can eat for seven dollars.

0:24:40.920 --> 0:24:43.280
<v Speaker 3>That is great. You're making me hungry as well? Can

0:24:43.320 --> 0:24:45.280

<v Speaker 3>down there is amazing Australian Open.

0:29:10.320 --> 0:29:12.200
<v Speaker 2>And also, yes, you're right.

0:29:12.160 --> 0:29:15.680
<v Speaker 3>The town, the botanical gardens. There are so many great

0:29:15.720 --> 0:29:18.720
<v Speaker 3>races that go down there. The town itself stunning around there.

0:29:18.840 --> 0:29:21.320
<v Speaker 3>And then there's that beautiful restaurant they've got down there

0:29:21.320 --> 0:29:24.680
<v Speaker 3>where I must say, a delightful afternoon cream tea.

0:29:25.000 --> 0:29:27.400
<v Speaker 2>Oh I seen this bit. We love a nice afternoon

0:29:27.440 --> 0:29:27.840
<v Speaker 2>cream tea.

0:29:27.840 --> 0:29:29.720
<v Speaker 3>They've got a great one down there, and I generally

0:29:29.800 --> 0:29:32.479
<v Speaker 3>have been to it three times as well. All right,

0:29:32.520 --> 0:29:34.479

0:29:44.160 --> 0:29:45.000
<v Speaker 3>you feeling this morning?

<v Speaker 8>Out face, go up to it.

0:29:47.960 --> 0:29:50.080
<v Speaker 7>I'm a nurse, so my dates role screwed up for

0:29:50.200 --> 0:29:51.800
<v Speaker 7>today is my Saturday.

0:29:52.280 --> 0:29:54.760
<v Speaker 3>And on behalf of everyone. Thank you so much for

0:29:54.840 --> 0:29:57.560
<v Speaker 3>you and your colleagues wherever you are, whatever hospital, whatever unit,

0:29:57.600 --> 0:30:00.680
<v Speaker 3>and all the frontline workers, I mean could fill the

0:30:00.720 --> 0:30:04.040
<v Speaker 3>other eighties spaces. Really just about what you guys have

0:30:04.120 --> 0:30:06.040
<v Speaker 3>done over the last couple of months in the Ppe

0:30:06.160 --> 0:30:08.280
<v Speaker 3>gear that's really at the front line.

0:30:09.000 --> 0:30:12.480
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, not surprisingly obviously that's one of the reasons I'm

0:30:12.640 --> 0:30:16.360
<v Speaker 7>calling is just I guess the reason I think Melbourne

0:30:16.440 --> 0:30:21.040
<v Speaker 7>is great is some of the best healthcare staff around. Really,

0:30:21.080 --> 0:30:25.240
<v Speaker 7>you know, they've shown it to work every day, regardless

0:30:25.320 --> 0:30:29.520
<v Speaker 7>of what's been going on everywhere else, and just you

0:30:29.600 --> 0:30:31.120
<v Speaker 7>know they've done their job.

0:30:31.160 --> 0:30:32.560
<v Speaker 11>Obviously at the nurse I've.

0:30:33.920 --> 0:30:36.200
<v Speaker 7>Given a big shout out to all the nurses, but

0:30:36.440 --> 0:30:39.240
<v Speaker 7>obviously there's a lot more to do it than just

0:30:39.280 --> 0:30:47.880
<v Speaker 7>the nursing staff. It's everybody, you know, clerk's, orderlies, security, everybody. Really,

0:30:47.960 --> 0:30:49.880
<v Speaker 7>you know, everybody had turned up to work every day

0:30:49.920 --> 0:30:52.400
<v Speaker 7>and just done their job and got on with it,

0:30:52.600 --> 0:30:57.000
<v Speaker 7>and in obviously difficult circumstances. So I'm really proud to

0:30:57.040 --> 0:31:00.240
<v Speaker 7>be part of Yeah, such a great place, and.

0:31:00.240 --> 0:31:04.360

<v Speaker 1>Christian O'Connell show podcast.

0:31:50.120 --> 0:31:53.320
<v Speaker 3>So today to mark the one almost said, one hundred

0:31:53.400 --> 0:31:57.880
<v Speaker 3>nineteen days in captivity, it's exactly like that. We've been

0:31:57.880 --> 0:32:02.040
<v Speaker 3>in human zoos. I reckon, we're a day or two

0:32:02.040 --> 0:32:04.400
<v Speaker 3>from fillinging up poop at each other other monkeys.

0:32:04.440 --> 0:32:06.640
<v Speaker 4>Maybe we don't know anymore.

0:32:08.200 --> 0:32:09.720
<v Speaker 3>Not just that my wife and I put to go

0:32:09.760 --> 0:32:11.200
<v Speaker 3>to the pub on Friday night. You know it's in

0:32:11.240 --> 0:32:14.080
<v Speaker 3>two hour windows and Yester's they going, what do I wear?

0:32:14.440 --> 0:32:16.960
<v Speaker 3>Where are those clothes? Can I still go in tracksuit

0:32:17.040 --> 0:32:18.520
<v Speaker 3>pants and a T shirt I've been living in for

0:32:18.600 --> 0:32:20.640
<v Speaker 3>the last six months? All right? So one hundred and

0:32:20.720 --> 0:32:23.720
<v Speaker 3>nineteen days, let's go with this in captivity, we're now

0:32:23.720 --> 0:32:26.920
<v Speaker 3>trying to find one hundred and nineteen reasons why this

0:32:27.040 --> 0:32:29.600
<v Speaker 3>city is a great city. I think there's another one there.

0:32:29.880 --> 0:32:33.040
<v Speaker 3>I mean Dan Andrew's most important press conference out of

0:32:33.120 --> 0:32:34.920
<v Speaker 3>many many important how many has he done? Like over

0:32:34.960 --> 0:32:39.000
<v Speaker 3>a billion day to day? Seriously, that guy, how's he coach?

0:32:39.680 --> 0:32:42.959
<v Speaker 3>But his most important press conference actually was yesterday. It's

0:32:43.000 --> 0:32:45.520
<v Speaker 3>a historic moment, not just for Victoria but for Australia

0:32:45.520 --> 0:32:46.200
<v Speaker 3>as well.

0:32:46.120 --> 0:32:48.200
<v Speaker 2>And in the world. They're replaying that all over the world.

0:32:48.200 --> 0:32:48.920
<v Speaker 2>It's not on the BBC.

0:32:48.960 --> 0:32:51.440
<v Speaker 3>They've been playing that clip of Dan announcing yesterday that

0:32:51.480 --> 0:32:53.560
<v Speaker 3>we're coming out of it. I love the fact that

0:32:53.920 --> 0:32:56.640
<v Speaker 3>at that very very important press conference, one are the

0:32:56.640 --> 0:32:59.400
<v Speaker 3>hardball questions. When can we go back on the beers?

0:33:00.240 --> 0:33:02.040
<v Speaker 3>That's the question we want to know, all right, So

0:33:02.160 --> 0:33:04.720
<v Speaker 3>we need Jack. What number are we up to? We

0:33:04.880 --> 0:33:07.800
<v Speaker 3>committed to finding our one hundred and nineteen reasons why

0:33:07.960 --> 0:33:11.360
<v Speaker 3>Melbourne is great. We need your ideas. We need your reasons.

0:33:11.400 --> 0:33:13.960
<v Speaker 3>Small local businesses that you've known that you go to

0:33:14.080 --> 0:33:17.400
<v Speaker 3>every day, your pubs, your cafes, your restaurants, your favorite

0:33:17.480 --> 0:33:20.800
<v Speaker 3>music venue, where your kids go to school. These are

0:33:21.080 --> 0:33:23.160
<v Speaker 3>this is the stuff of life. This is what makes

0:33:23.200 --> 0:33:25.440
<v Speaker 3>our lives. What it is about are the local things

0:33:25.440 --> 0:33:28.640
<v Speaker 3>in our areas and communities. Let's name these places who

0:33:28.720 --> 0:33:31.400
<v Speaker 3>have gone into a hibernation whilst we've been in captivity

0:33:31.680 --> 0:33:33.560
<v Speaker 3>over the last couple of months, Jack, how many more

0:33:33.560 --> 0:33:33.880
<v Speaker 3>do we need?

0:33:33.920 --> 0:33:36.240
<v Speaker 4>Is it eighty we're counting backwards from one hundred and

0:33:36.280 --> 0:33:38.880
<v Speaker 4>nineteen or at eighty five we need a hunt. We

0:33:38.920 --> 0:33:42.040
<v Speaker 4>need eighty four places or eighty fourth reasons why Melbourne

0:33:42.080 --> 0:33:43.120
<v Speaker 4>is great before nine am.

0:33:43.280 --> 0:33:44.880
<v Speaker 3>I know you can do this, Melbourne. You've just done

0:33:44.880 --> 0:33:50.360
<v Speaker 3>a hundred and odd days in captivity.

0:33:47.160 --> 0:33:51.440
<v Speaker 1>Christian Christian o'connells show podcast.

0:33:53.240 --> 0:33:57.320
<v Speaker 3>So we are counting down because this show sucks at maths, kids,

0:33:57.320 --> 0:33:58.800
<v Speaker 3>this is what happens if you don't get your grades.

0:33:59.000 --> 0:34:01.400
<v Speaker 3>You'll end up here being dragged out your bed in

0:34:01.400 --> 0:34:03.680
<v Speaker 3>the middle of the night based to a radio show.

0:34:04.520 --> 0:34:06.760
<v Speaker 3>All right, So we're counting down from one hundred and nineteen.

0:34:06.800 --> 0:34:09.160
<v Speaker 3>The reason why one hundred nineteen one hundred and nineteen

0:34:09.239 --> 0:34:11.640
<v Speaker 3>days is what you've all been through. So one hundred

0:34:11.680 --> 0:34:13.600
<v Speaker 3>and nineteen reasons why Melbourne is Great? Jack.

0:34:13.640 --> 0:34:15.400
<v Speaker 2>We're currently sitting strong.

0:34:15.320 --> 0:34:18.359
<v Speaker 4>Acts number eighty two to go, and.

0:34:18.480 --> 0:34:22.560
<v Speaker 3>Because it's historic times, this show will not be finishing

0:34:22.600 --> 0:34:25.239
<v Speaker 3>at nine am. We will finish when we have done

0:34:25.360 --> 0:34:29.800
<v Speaker 3>one hundred and nineteen reasons. Is everyone hungry? Does anyone

0:34:29.800 --> 0:34:31.600
<v Speaker 3>want work? Want food? Today? I order food for us

0:39:33.800 --> 0:39:35.759

0:39:35.760 --> 0:39:36.480
<v Speaker 2>because of lockdown.

0:39:36.520 --> 0:39:39.200
<v Speaker 3>It's been very you know, quite and windy down there.

0:39:39.520 --> 0:39:41.399
<v Speaker 3>The wind is all the power from you, of course,

0:39:41.440 --> 0:39:43.160
<v Speaker 3>the power of corridor. I call it down there the

0:39:43.160 --> 0:39:44.440
<v Speaker 3>Silicon Valley.

0:39:45.000 --> 0:39:47.840
<v Speaker 6>Okay, now what are we talking about this morning? Fabulous

0:39:47.840 --> 0:39:48.720
<v Speaker 6>things about Melbourne.

0:39:48.840 --> 0:39:51.160
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean a historic day. Obviously the city has

0:39:51.239 --> 0:39:53.120
<v Speaker 3>done so well in the real style of the city

0:39:53.160 --> 0:39:55.160
<v Speaker 3>is the people here. But you was, may you must

0:39:55.160 --> 0:39:57.040
<v Speaker 3>be very proud of what the city has gone through.

0:39:57.600 --> 0:40:01.440
<v Speaker 6>Oh it's just incredible. And yesterday afternoon, as the Premier

0:40:01.560 --> 0:40:06.680
<v Speaker 6>said those words, inundated with calls and people literally crying

0:40:06.920 --> 0:40:09.799
<v Speaker 6>with joy. And I think there's just been so much

0:40:09.880 --> 0:40:13.759
<v Speaker 6>pent up emotion as we've stayed stoic and we've done

0:40:13.800 --> 0:40:16.640
<v Speaker 6>the right thing during lockdown, and then that sense of

0:40:16.760 --> 0:40:21.439
<v Speaker 6>relief and release has just let a whole other wave

0:40:21.520 --> 0:40:23.920
<v Speaker 6>of emotion go through the city. It's fantastic.

0:40:24.280 --> 0:40:26.880
<v Speaker 3>And tell me this, right, did you have any inkling

0:40:27.000 --> 0:40:28.680
<v Speaker 3>what he was going to be saying? He must know?

0:40:30.520 --> 0:40:33.120
<v Speaker 6>Oh, I had a bit of an inkling because we've

0:40:33.160 --> 0:40:39.239
<v Speaker 6>been expecting some great things on Sunday and unfortunately, due

0:40:39.320 --> 0:40:42.320
<v Speaker 6>to some of that ongoing testing that has been delayed.

0:40:43.480 --> 0:40:47.000
<v Speaker 6>But you know, you don't know until the premier stands

0:40:47.080 --> 0:40:49.960
<v Speaker 6>up there and tells us exactly what's going to happen.

0:40:50.120 --> 0:40:54.040
<v Speaker 6>And literally, I think Melbournians were hanging on every word

0:40:54.520 --> 0:40:56.520
<v Speaker 6>at three twenty when he came on yesterday.

0:40:56.760 --> 0:40:58.239
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it was you know, we were talking about the

0:40:58.320 --> 0:41:00.520
<v Speaker 3>race a week today. That stops the day. Yeah, it

0:41:00.600 --> 0:41:03.239
<v Speaker 3>was the press conference that stopped for us here And

0:41:03.600 --> 0:41:06.400
<v Speaker 3>what are so today for the one hundred and nineteen

0:41:06.480 --> 0:41:09.279
<v Speaker 3>days in a second lockdown, Sunny, we are forming a

0:41:09.360 --> 0:41:11.920
<v Speaker 3>less of one hundred and nineteen reasons why Melbourne is

0:41:11.920 --> 0:41:14.920
<v Speaker 3>such a great, special, unique city. What is it for you?

0:41:15.560 --> 0:41:18.080
<v Speaker 6>Oh gosh, well you mentioned it a little bit before.

0:41:18.120 --> 0:41:20.279
<v Speaker 6>Which has to be people, you know. I'm one of

0:41:20.280 --> 0:41:24.200
<v Speaker 6>those people that will strike up a random conversation with

0:41:24.280 --> 0:41:28.080
<v Speaker 6>somebody on a tram, who loves revving up people around

0:41:28.080 --> 0:41:32.279
<v Speaker 6>me at the football, who will search for things in

0:41:32.320 --> 0:41:36.359
<v Speaker 6>common with somebody standing at a bar. And it's been very,

0:41:36.480 --> 0:41:39.600
<v Speaker 6>very quiet and lonely in the city. So I can't

0:41:39.760 --> 0:41:43.080
<v Speaker 6>wait to see people back in our streets and the

0:41:43.160 --> 0:41:47.880
<v Speaker 6>extended outdoor dining is looking superb across the city, and

0:41:48.000 --> 0:41:51.239
<v Speaker 6>to feel that energy from other people. I think that's

0:41:51.280 --> 0:41:54.520
<v Speaker 6>what I've missed the most during lockdown, is that energy

0:41:54.560 --> 0:41:55.720
<v Speaker 6>that comes from other people.

0:41:55.880 --> 0:41:57.480
<v Speaker 3>Yes, especially this time of the years. We're heading to

0:41:57.520 --> 0:41:59.200
<v Speaker 3>summer as well. We all want to be outdoors. We

0:41:59.200 --> 0:42:00.400
<v Speaker 3>want to be enjoying the moltoin.

0:42:01.000 --> 0:42:02.960
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, and we can and we will.

0:42:05.960 --> 0:42:08.720

1:07:34.640 --> 1:07:38.600
<v Speaker 4>Own iconic steamer Victoria, our iconic steam trains that run

1:07:38.640 --> 1:07:40.160

1:07:45.320 --> 1:07:50.400
<v Speaker 3>Thanks Jack. Let's go to Graham Graham.

1:07:50.440 --> 1:07:51.720
<v Speaker 26>Hello, Hello, how are you again?

1:07:51.840 --> 1:07:54.240
<v Speaker 2>Yes, yes, we're good. What's your reason that we're breaking

1:07:54.280 --> 1:07:54.800
<v Speaker 2>the top ten?

1:07:55.480 --> 1:07:58.040
<v Speaker 26>Well, I just think from one point of view, it's

1:07:58.040 --> 1:08:06.040
<v Speaker 26>a fascinating city. Melbourne has the only movie production Horizon

1:08:06.120 --> 1:08:10.439
<v Speaker 26>Pool in the Southern Hemisphere. Down at Point Cook, which

1:08:10.440 --> 1:08:14.640
<v Speaker 26>attracts movie movie production people because they can have this

1:08:14.760 --> 1:08:18.160
<v Speaker 26>giant tank which is about a kilometer square, which they

1:08:18.160 --> 1:08:21.280
<v Speaker 26>can do all sorts of water scenes in and it's

1:08:21.280 --> 1:08:23.880
<v Speaker 26>onto the bay. There's only two others in the world,

1:08:23.960 --> 1:08:27.439
<v Speaker 26>one in Baja California and another one in Malta. And

1:08:27.840 --> 1:08:31.200
<v Speaker 26>it's been used for a lot of scenes for ocean scenes,

1:08:31.680 --> 1:08:33.840
<v Speaker 26>so it looks like you're out, you're drownding in the

1:08:33.880 --> 1:08:34.599
<v Speaker 26>middle of the ocean.

1:08:37.160 --> 1:08:38.839
<v Speaker 3>Sorry, is it kill wide?

1:08:39.560 --> 1:08:46.639
<v Speaker 26>I think it's a kilometer square. It's not very deep.

1:08:46.800 --> 1:08:51.440
<v Speaker 26>It's not very deep, so they can drive machinery around.

1:08:52.000 --> 1:08:52.840
<v Speaker 14>Pardon, how do you.

1:08:52.800 --> 1:08:53.200
<v Speaker 3>Know all this?

1:08:54.360 --> 1:08:54.519
<v Speaker 1>Oh?

1:08:54.560 --> 1:08:56.360
<v Speaker 26>I think it's pretty basic knowledge, isn't it.

1:08:57.600 --> 1:08:59.200
<v Speaker 5>I've never heard of it.

1:09:00.000 --> 1:09:01.320
<v Speaker 26>It's a Point Cook. It's near the.

1:09:01.360 --> 1:09:04.240
<v Speaker 3>Roof, bas sink tron, the swimming pools.

1:09:04.439 --> 1:09:07.639
<v Speaker 26>I just I just think it's amazing that is something

1:09:07.720 --> 1:09:10.439
<v Speaker 26>like that there, And that's why movie production people who

1:09:10.520 --> 1:09:13.479
<v Speaker 26>do water scenes can come to Melbourne. And that just

1:09:13.520 --> 1:09:17.120
<v Speaker 26>adds an element of what Melbourne's good for. And I've

1:09:17.120 --> 1:09:20.960
<v Speaker 26>got to say I'm a tasmaniac at birth, but I

1:09:21.280 --> 1:09:23.920
<v Speaker 26>love Melbourne. It's just such a friendly, happy place and

1:09:24.880 --> 1:09:26.920
<v Speaker 26>I wouldn't want to see myself living anywhere else.

1:09:26.960 --> 1:09:28.760
<v Speaker 3>I want to see you else. Well, I don't want

1:09:28.760 --> 1:09:31.800
<v Speaker 3>to visualize you anyway, to be honest, right now, thank you.

1:09:33.120 --> 1:09:35.720
<v Speaker 26>That's said. Okay, I appreciate that.

1:09:35.880 --> 1:09:36.280

1:12:53.080 --> 1:12:56.800

1:12:57.040 --> 1:13:01.120
<v Speaker 3>You mentioned prosecco. Is it proc on somewhere in the world?
