7
00:00:27,405 --> 00:00:31,365
Speaker 2: So I'm Christian O'Connell and this week we were hoping

8
00:00:31,405 --> 00:00:34,165
Speaker 2: to come on air to get to know you guys.

9
00:00:34,365 --> 00:00:35,805
Speaker 2: I am the guy and this is the show, and

10
00:00:35,845 --> 00:00:37,845
Speaker 2: this is my team. There's gonna be taken over from

11
00:00:37,925 --> 00:00:40,085
Speaker 2: Jones in Amanda in January, and I didn't want to

12
00:00:40,085 --> 00:00:42,565
Speaker 2: wait until January for us to get to know each other.

13
00:00:42,805 --> 00:00:44,644
Speaker 2: And I'm really really sorry that we have to get

14
00:00:44,684 --> 00:00:45,965
Speaker 2: to know each other this way.

15
00:00:46,365 --> 00:00:48,364
Speaker 1: This morning is a I don't know.

16
00:00:48,365 --> 00:00:50,044
Speaker 2: About you, guys, but this morning when I woke up,

17
00:00:50,045 --> 00:00:51,845
Speaker 2: it felt like it was a hangover.

18
00:00:51,964 --> 00:00:54,525
Speaker 1: I didn't sleep very well. I kept looking at the phone.

19
00:00:54,645 --> 00:00:57,404
Speaker 2: I looked at scenes Sandy that you do see too

20
00:00:57,485 --> 00:01:00,005
Speaker 2: much coming from America. It didn't feel like it was

21
00:01:00,045 --> 00:01:02,764
Speaker 2: here in Sydney, or certainly not here in Australia. It

22
00:01:02,845 --> 00:01:06,205
Speaker 2: was like a hangover. Did that awful thing really happen

23
00:01:06,285 --> 00:01:09,045
Speaker 2: last night? And so I hope that today show is

24
00:01:09,045 --> 00:01:11,605
Speaker 2: a place of hope and support. I probably like a

25
00:01:11,605 --> 00:01:14,285
Speaker 2: lot of us spent too much time doom scrolling. You

26
00:01:14,405 --> 00:01:16,325
Speaker 2: keep looking at the update, keep wanting to look at

27
00:01:16,325 --> 00:01:17,725
Speaker 2: more and more footage, and I don't think after a

28
00:01:17,725 --> 00:01:20,805
Speaker 2: while it helps. And so today on the show, I

29
00:01:20,845 --> 00:01:22,805
Speaker 2: really want this place, this show, to be placed of

30
00:01:22,885 --> 00:01:25,765
Speaker 2: support and hope and actually where we can talk about it,

31
00:01:26,285 --> 00:01:28,565
Speaker 2: because I don't think staring at our phones is what's

32
00:01:28,645 --> 00:01:31,325
Speaker 2: needed in the world right now and in Sydney this morning.

33
00:01:31,365 --> 00:01:35,205
Speaker 2: So the phone number is thirteen fifty five twenty two.

34
00:01:35,245 --> 00:01:36,605
Speaker 2: If you want to give us a call this morning,

35
00:01:36,845 --> 00:01:39,725
Speaker 2: you might know someone who is there has been affected

36
00:01:39,765 --> 00:01:42,005
Speaker 2: by it. If we're struggling to try and make sense

37
00:01:42,005 --> 00:01:44,685
Speaker 2: of something which is senseless, there's no way to make

38
00:01:44,725 --> 00:01:47,085
Speaker 2: sense of it. My real heart goes out to all

39
00:01:47,125 --> 00:01:49,485
Speaker 2: the people who are waking up this morning who have

40
00:01:49,605 --> 00:01:53,525
Speaker 2: lost loved ones or have them in hospitals around Sydney.

41
00:01:54,045 --> 00:01:56,605
Speaker 2: Let's check in with Patty. Now, Patsy, what do we

42
00:01:56,645 --> 00:01:58,885
Speaker 2: know this morning? What is the latest? And obviously across

43
00:01:58,925 --> 00:02:01,925
Speaker 2: the show today we'll have regular bulletins as things unfold

44
00:02:01,965 --> 00:02:02,405
Speaker 2: and changed.

45
00:02:02,525 --> 00:02:03,805
Speaker 1: But what do we know right now?

46
00:02:04,365 --> 00:02:08,125
Speaker 5: Well, sadly, Christian the deft toll has just risen from

47
00:02:08,165 --> 00:02:12,364
Speaker 5: twelve to sixteen that's just been confirmed, which is just

48
00:02:12,484 --> 00:02:17,085
Speaker 5: absolutely shocking. We've got twenty nine injured. We don't know

49
00:02:17,205 --> 00:02:22,045
Speaker 5: the extent of any of those injuries. Among the death

50
00:02:22,085 --> 00:02:25,245
Speaker 5: toll includes one of the gunmen, and there's a second

51
00:02:25,285 --> 00:02:31,645
Speaker 5: gunman under police guard currently in hospital injured. But amongst

52
00:02:31,965 --> 00:02:35,485
Speaker 5: all of the horror of last night is emerging all

53
00:02:35,525 --> 00:02:39,685
Speaker 5: these amazing stories of heroism, and that amazing footage of

54
00:02:39,725 --> 00:02:45,205
Speaker 5: the man that disarmed one of the shooters just absolutely incredible.

55
00:02:45,245 --> 00:02:47,565
Speaker 1: And I've never seen anything like that in my life.

56
00:02:47,725 --> 00:02:50,445
Speaker 2: Absolutely, it was like he was a Special Forces guy.

57
00:02:50,565 --> 00:02:52,925
Speaker 1: He just was utterly fainness. He was going to take that.

58
00:02:53,205 --> 00:02:56,565
Speaker 2: He took down an active shooter and then didn't use

59
00:02:56,605 --> 00:03:00,525
Speaker 2: the gun on him. To have that courage and levelheadedness

60
00:03:00,525 --> 00:03:03,525
Speaker 2: and big hardness to not turn himself into a murderer.

61
00:03:03,925 --> 00:03:07,045
Speaker 2: That is Australia. That's the image that people are seeing

62
00:03:07,085 --> 00:03:09,365
Speaker 2: around the world. That's what we should have in our

63
00:03:09,365 --> 00:03:12,525
Speaker 2: hearts this morning, is that gay guy Hmed, a dad

64
00:03:12,565 --> 00:03:15,925
Speaker 2: of two, selflessly thinking of other people and in his acts,

65
00:03:15,925 --> 00:03:19,525
Speaker 2: that's Australian of the year. He would have saved so

66
00:03:19,685 --> 00:03:20,805
Speaker 2: many more lives.

67
00:03:20,565 --> 00:03:23,845
Speaker 5: As well, and clearly in that situation, not even consciously

68
00:03:23,965 --> 00:03:28,405
Speaker 5: thought about. It just sprung. That's just natural reaction, isn't

69
00:03:28,445 --> 00:03:32,085
Speaker 5: it to do something like that. So our terror level

70
00:03:32,445 --> 00:03:36,165
Speaker 5: is still the same. Is it probable they haven't heidened it?

71
00:03:36,165 --> 00:03:41,685
Speaker 5: It is officially an act of terror. And there is

72
00:03:41,805 --> 00:03:45,125
Speaker 5: also one of the gunmen's homes in Sydney's West has

73
00:03:45,165 --> 00:03:49,525
Speaker 5: been raided, so there's a lot of streets closed off there.

74
00:03:50,125 --> 00:03:54,645
Speaker 5: But yeah, I myself feel still in shock this morning,

75
00:03:54,685 --> 00:03:56,725
Speaker 5: and I've covered a lot of a lot of things

76
00:03:56,845 --> 00:04:00,045
Speaker 5: nine to eleven and you know the Linked Cafe siege,

77
00:04:00,125 --> 00:04:02,325
Speaker 5: but this is just it's shocking.

78
00:04:02,365 --> 00:04:02,565
Speaker 6: You know.

79
00:04:02,605 --> 00:04:05,725
Speaker 5: We had a beautiful team dinner last night in Manly.

80
00:04:05,805 --> 00:04:08,645
Speaker 5: It was a beautiful night. We've come from Melbourne where

81
00:04:08,685 --> 00:04:11,645
Speaker 5: it's been so cold, so to sit out and just

82
00:04:12,005 --> 00:04:15,045
Speaker 5: enjoy a beautiful meal with some of you know, our

83
00:04:15,085 --> 00:04:18,525
Speaker 5: work family. And then which is exactly what would have

84
00:04:18,565 --> 00:04:21,165
Speaker 5: happened at Bondi. You know, there were families.

85
00:04:20,805 --> 00:04:24,765
Speaker 1: There, it was a religious festival, there was a children's just.

86
00:04:24,685 --> 00:04:28,724
Speaker 5: The most beautiful night and enjoying Sydney as you should,

87
00:04:28,804 --> 00:04:31,404
Speaker 5: all the beautiful sights and the beaches, and then for

88
00:04:31,484 --> 00:04:35,405
Speaker 5: this to happen, it's just utterly devastating.

89
00:04:35,724 --> 00:04:37,645
Speaker 1: Yeah, it is all right, Let's play a song.

90
00:04:37,645 --> 00:04:39,004
Speaker 2: If you want to give us a call this morning

91
00:04:39,044 --> 00:04:42,245
Speaker 2: thirteen fifty five twenty two. You can also message us

92
00:04:42,245 --> 00:04:45,004
Speaker 2: as well. Four seven five three one oh four three.

93
00:04:45,005 --> 00:04:48,724
Speaker 4: Good morning, The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

94
00:04:49,325 --> 00:04:52,365
Speaker 2: You're from Sydney, how are you feeling this morning? I

95
00:04:52,445 --> 00:04:54,805
Speaker 2: bet your mom and dad checked in where you were yesterday.

96
00:04:54,924 --> 00:04:57,724
Speaker 7: Yet the family chat, you know, I can't remember the

97
00:04:57,765 --> 00:05:00,124
Speaker 7: time that's ever happened before when checking to see if

98
00:05:00,164 --> 00:05:03,805
Speaker 7: we're safe, and I'm just I'm in complete disbelief at

99
00:05:03,844 --> 00:05:07,164
Speaker 7: the moment, Like it's I don't recognize my own city

100
00:05:07,205 --> 00:05:08,844
Speaker 7: for the for the first time in my life life,

101
00:05:08,885 --> 00:05:11,645
Speaker 7: Like you see those images and the Bondai that we

102
00:05:11,724 --> 00:05:13,924
Speaker 7: know for all of us growing up in Sydney, no

103
00:05:13,964 --> 00:05:16,164
Speaker 7: matter where you're from, you spent a lot of time

104
00:05:16,205 --> 00:05:16,645
Speaker 7: in Bondai.

105
00:05:16,685 --> 00:05:18,045
Speaker 3: That's where you go for school holidays.

106
00:05:18,325 --> 00:05:21,804
Speaker 2: As iconic is probably the most Australian thing that we're

107
00:05:21,844 --> 00:05:25,005
Speaker 2: fed around the world. Yes, exactly, Harbor Bridge, the Upper

108
00:05:25,044 --> 00:05:26,365
Speaker 2: House and Bondai Beach.

109
00:05:26,804 --> 00:05:29,164
Speaker 1: It's where all the tourists want to go and get.

110
00:05:29,005 --> 00:05:33,124
Speaker 2: A photo taken from It's quintessentially Australian and to have

111
00:05:33,205 --> 00:05:36,325
Speaker 2: that happen anywhere in Australia, but there it's just this,

112
00:05:36,964 --> 00:05:38,765
Speaker 2: it's a real like so I think the word everyone

113
00:05:38,844 --> 00:05:41,124
Speaker 2: is like they're struggling to talk about it. You know,

114
00:05:41,325 --> 00:05:44,565
Speaker 2: what do you actually say? It's unbearable, the tragedy that happened.

115
00:05:44,604 --> 00:05:47,804
Speaker 7: It's so hard to process the image of Bondai that

116
00:05:47,804 --> 00:05:49,805
Speaker 7: we all know. It's so formative for us as well,

117
00:05:49,804 --> 00:05:51,964
Speaker 7: Like no matter where you're from in Sydney, it's not

118
00:05:52,044 --> 00:05:53,604
Speaker 7: just like a cliche or a trope.

119
00:05:53,765 --> 00:05:56,485
Speaker 3: We do all bond Is to spend our school holidays.

120
00:05:56,645 --> 00:05:58,964
Speaker 7: I had lived in engandein which is like right in

121
00:05:59,005 --> 00:06:01,404
Speaker 7: the deep South. I'd make him on the train. I'd

122
00:06:01,404 --> 00:06:03,325
Speaker 7: meet my other mate Nathan from the West, my other

123
00:06:03,364 --> 00:06:04,605
Speaker 7: mate Miles from Epping in the.

124
00:06:04,525 --> 00:06:06,804
Speaker 3: North, would all come. We'd all go to Bondai.

125
00:06:06,924 --> 00:06:09,484
Speaker 7: We'd go to the aportos there, burn our feet on

126
00:06:09,525 --> 00:06:11,565
Speaker 7: the sand running across to get to the park.

127
00:06:11,885 --> 00:06:13,964
Speaker 3: And those were the these core.

128
00:06:13,844 --> 00:06:15,684
Speaker 7: Memories you have as a kid and growing up in

129
00:06:15,685 --> 00:06:18,765
Speaker 7: school holidays, and to think that there would be so

130
00:06:18,924 --> 00:06:21,445
Speaker 7: many kids and people they're doing that same thing.

131
00:06:21,765 --> 00:06:23,645
Speaker 1: Sunday Sunday innocently, you know.

132
00:06:23,924 --> 00:06:27,804
Speaker 7: That horror to put those to try and put those

133
00:06:27,844 --> 00:06:30,445
Speaker 7: two things together, it didn't make sense. Like you're looking

134
00:06:30,484 --> 00:06:33,485
Speaker 7: at your those images and you're like this, this isn't

135
00:06:33,484 --> 00:06:33,964
Speaker 7: the Sydney.

136
00:06:34,044 --> 00:06:37,485
Speaker 3: I know this. It's it's barely believable. Mate, it was.

137
00:06:38,645 --> 00:06:42,604
Speaker 7: I'm still I'm still looking at those photos, going this

138
00:06:42,724 --> 00:06:43,365
Speaker 7: can't be real.

139
00:06:43,685 --> 00:06:45,765
Speaker 2: Yeah, what I'm also been aware of this morning. So

140
00:06:45,885 --> 00:06:48,205
Speaker 2: my daughter's called me yesterday because obviously, like all of

141
00:06:48,284 --> 00:06:50,604
Speaker 2: us now, we got our news on our phones and

142
00:06:50,645 --> 00:06:52,124
Speaker 2: they were like, where about something you and Sydney?

143
00:06:52,205 --> 00:06:52,365
Speaker 3: Dad?

144
00:06:52,645 --> 00:06:54,204
Speaker 2: I say, I know you were down at the beach,

145
00:06:54,484 --> 00:06:56,404
Speaker 2: and I'm thinking this morning, my heart goes down to

146
00:06:56,445 --> 00:07:00,045
Speaker 2: all the mums and dads. How do you speak about

147
00:07:00,085 --> 00:07:02,245
Speaker 2: what's happened to your kids?

148
00:07:02,724 --> 00:07:04,724
Speaker 1: What do you say? You know?

149
00:07:04,885 --> 00:07:06,885
Speaker 2: And the death told is what's sixteen? Is it gone

150
00:07:06,924 --> 00:07:08,484
Speaker 2: up to sixteen? People have lost their life?

151
00:07:08,685 --> 00:07:09,125
Speaker 1: Yeah?

152
00:07:09,164 --> 00:07:11,765
Speaker 5: Well, I've got my teenage daughter, as you guys know,

153
00:07:12,005 --> 00:07:14,725
Speaker 5: up with me at the moment. She's fourteen, Audrey, and

154
00:07:15,205 --> 00:07:17,965
Speaker 5: I just had to reassure last night you're safe.

155
00:07:18,165 --> 00:07:19,285
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's okay.

156
00:07:19,605 --> 00:07:22,165
Speaker 5: You don't need to be afraid. It's an awful thing

157
00:07:22,205 --> 00:07:27,645
Speaker 5: that's happened, but you'll be okay, you're safe. It's hard,

158
00:07:27,885 --> 00:07:30,364
Speaker 5: it's really hard. What do you do with younger kids

159
00:07:30,405 --> 00:07:33,325
Speaker 5: because their thought process is so different. But I think

160
00:07:33,325 --> 00:07:35,085
Speaker 5: that's what all you can do. It was just assure

161
00:07:35,125 --> 00:07:38,765
Speaker 5: them that Australia is still a really safe country in

162
00:07:38,804 --> 00:07:42,965
Speaker 5: which to live. We're very, very lucky and sadly these

163
00:07:42,965 --> 00:07:44,804
Speaker 5: things do happen, but you're safe.

164
00:07:44,925 --> 00:07:47,725
Speaker 2: It's incredibly rare, it is, you know, and people are

165
00:07:47,725 --> 00:07:50,364
Speaker 2: talking about, you know, the worst terrorist attack in this

166
00:07:50,445 --> 00:07:52,765
Speaker 2: country in thirty years. It's quite a thing. It's a

167
00:07:52,804 --> 00:07:54,765
Speaker 2: sad thing to say this, that's quite the thing to

168
00:07:54,804 --> 00:07:56,645
Speaker 2: be able to say, you know, when I moved it

169
00:07:56,725 --> 00:07:59,765
Speaker 2: from London seven years ago, sadly my twenty years on

170
00:07:59,804 --> 00:08:02,965
Speaker 2: London radio, there'd been too many big attacks and one

171
00:08:03,005 --> 00:08:05,365
Speaker 2: thing I never thought i'd ever experienced in this country

172
00:08:05,765 --> 00:08:08,324
Speaker 2: or something like that happened last night. It really doesn't

173
00:08:08,325 --> 00:08:10,285
Speaker 2: make any sense. You can't believe has happened right here

174
00:08:10,285 --> 00:08:12,605
Speaker 2: in Australia. In Sydney as well. I just want to

175
00:08:12,645 --> 00:08:16,525
Speaker 2: reassure people as well. Obviously we arguing doing regular bulletins

176
00:08:16,605 --> 00:08:19,525
Speaker 2: and the situation is sadly going to unfold and we'll

177
00:08:19,565 --> 00:08:21,925
Speaker 2: get more details decision. But this is a safe space

178
00:08:21,965 --> 00:08:24,325
Speaker 2: where you can listen to today's show with the kids.

179
00:08:24,364 --> 00:08:26,485
Speaker 2: We will only be giving you the news. This isn't

180
00:08:26,485 --> 00:08:28,925
Speaker 2: gonna be speculation. It's not a place for gossip. There's

181
00:08:28,925 --> 00:08:31,165
Speaker 2: going to be no caturitou's clips played out or anything

182
00:08:31,165 --> 00:08:33,204
Speaker 2: like that of what happened. That will been the right

183
00:08:33,245 --> 00:08:35,605
Speaker 2: thing to do, and I want people to be reassured.

184
00:08:35,845 --> 00:08:37,845
Speaker 2: Is it safe to listen to the show today? It

185
00:08:37,925 --> 00:08:40,485
Speaker 2: absolutely is. Let's take a break. Let's take a break.

242
00:11:06,605 --> 00:11:09,645
Speaker 2: condonnces to all the Jewish people of Radia and also

243
00:11:09,684 --> 00:11:13,005
Speaker 2: the poor first responders that were affected by yesterday's mass

244
00:11:13,005 --> 00:11:16,205
Speaker 2: shooting at BONDI. I was sitting on my lounge with

245
00:11:16,245 --> 00:11:18,485
Speaker 2: my husband and our four year old grandson as everything

246
00:11:18,564 --> 00:11:20,965
Speaker 2: just unfolded and we were in a state of shock

247
00:11:21,005 --> 00:11:23,525
Speaker 2: and terror. I am in all though this morning of

248
00:11:23,525 --> 00:11:27,525
Speaker 2: what that brave man did, Yes Ahmed, to tackle the

249
00:11:27,605 --> 00:11:30,684
Speaker 2: active shooter. It's his act of heroism that's brought me

250
00:11:30,725 --> 00:11:33,645
Speaker 2: to tears. That he saved so many extra lives as well,

251
00:11:33,645 --> 00:11:36,205
Speaker 2: and that the death toll could be even higher today.

252
00:11:36,405 --> 00:11:38,844
Speaker 2: I would like to thank him. It's also he's been

253
00:11:38,885 --> 00:11:41,605
Speaker 2: shot twice as well. He's doing very well. But what

254
00:11:41,684 --> 00:11:44,685
Speaker 2: an incredible image that is. That's the one that we

255
00:11:44,684 --> 00:11:47,564
Speaker 2: should also be hanging on to today. That is Australia.

256
00:11:47,564 --> 00:11:49,685
Speaker 2: Those are the values that we all want to think

257
00:11:49,684 --> 00:11:51,965
Speaker 2: that actually, if something like that happened, we would look

258
00:11:52,005 --> 00:11:57,685
Speaker 2: out for other people. It's an incredible, incredible act of courage. Christine,

259
00:11:57,684 --> 00:11:59,205
Speaker 2: thank you very much for your message. We're going to

260
00:11:59,245 --> 00:12:02,405
Speaker 2: go live now to Bondi where our journalists, our gold

Speaker 2: somber mood.

266
00:12:11,084 --> 00:12:14,485
Speaker 10: I'm guessing yeah, it is very somber, a lot of

267
00:12:14,485 --> 00:12:18,124
Speaker 10: sad people. People are rocked up to pay their respects

268
00:12:18,725 --> 00:12:22,444
Speaker 10: after yesterday. There's a lot of tear filled eyes, a

269
00:12:22,485 --> 00:12:25,285
Speaker 10: lot of people hugging. I'm about one hundred meters from

270
00:12:25,285 --> 00:12:31,085
Speaker 10: where the bridge is where the shootings began, I suppose yesterday.

271
00:12:31,965 --> 00:12:33,605
Speaker 10: And as you said at the top, there about that

272
00:12:33,605 --> 00:12:37,245
Speaker 10: boat that just took the gun from that guy, there's

273
00:12:37,245 --> 00:12:39,124
Speaker 10: that active bravery. That's a guy that's just come to

274
00:12:39,204 --> 00:12:41,525
Speaker 10: the beach just to have a day out and he's

275
00:12:42,005 --> 00:12:47,005
Speaker 10: been met with this decision that it's just all inspiring. Really,

276
00:12:47,045 --> 00:12:47,765
Speaker 10: it's incredible.

277
00:12:47,925 --> 00:12:49,844
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is, and it's a lovely thing to hang

278
00:12:49,885 --> 00:12:52,685
Speaker 2: on to this morning because when you look at the paty,

279
00:12:52,725 --> 00:12:53,925
Speaker 2: what's the latest the death hold?

280
00:12:54,125 --> 00:12:55,525
Speaker 1: Is it sixteen sixteen?

281
00:12:55,684 --> 00:12:59,085
Speaker 5: Yeah, four further and we've just also got note Christian

282
00:12:59,365 --> 00:13:02,885
Speaker 5: that we have a further two people listed is injured.

283
00:13:03,005 --> 00:13:07,804
Speaker 5: So that's now forty and of those five are critical,

284
00:13:08,965 --> 00:13:11,925
Speaker 5: sixteen confirmed dead, forty injured in hospital.

285
00:13:11,965 --> 00:13:14,165
Speaker 2: I still can't believe that it happened, and this is

286
00:13:14,204 --> 00:13:16,484
Speaker 2: the news that people are waking up with in Sydney

287
00:13:16,485 --> 00:13:16,925
Speaker 2: this morning.

288
00:13:17,125 --> 00:13:18,925
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's shocking.

289
00:13:19,005 --> 00:13:20,804
Speaker 2: So Sean taming this, do you think that people are

290
00:13:20,845 --> 00:13:23,405
Speaker 2: coming there to pay respects that they want to go

291
00:13:23,485 --> 00:13:26,204
Speaker 2: down there and show some sort of unity and support.

292
00:13:27,084 --> 00:13:27,285
Speaker 1: Yeah.

293
00:13:27,324 --> 00:13:30,525
Speaker 10: Absolutely, Like I've spoked to a few people, they just

294
00:13:30,564 --> 00:13:32,204
Speaker 10: feel like they just want to be here, you know,

295
00:13:32,245 --> 00:13:35,205
Speaker 10: there's just there's something inside them that's you know, maybe

296
00:13:34,725 --> 00:13:37,965
Speaker 10: they didn't hear it or they went close to it yesterday,

297
00:13:38,324 --> 00:13:41,405
Speaker 10: but they just need to come down and pay their

298
00:13:41,405 --> 00:13:43,925
Speaker 10: respects to those members of the communities that have lost.

299
00:13:44,485 --> 00:13:46,245
Speaker 2: And how are you feeling yourself down there as well?

300
00:13:46,285 --> 00:13:47,925
Speaker 2: I can hear in your voice it must be a

301
00:13:47,925 --> 00:13:50,364
Speaker 2: lot to take in the thought of, you know what

302
00:13:50,485 --> 00:13:52,925
Speaker 2: twelve hours ago, you know what was going on.

303
00:13:53,845 --> 00:13:58,244
Speaker 10: Yeah, it's look, I'm okay, but yeah, as you said,

304
00:13:58,245 --> 00:14:01,124
Speaker 10: twelve hours ago, the city was a different place. And

305
00:14:02,605 --> 00:14:05,285
Speaker 10: being down here and seeing everyone, I mean, it's nice

306
00:14:05,285 --> 00:14:10,125
Speaker 10: to see the community together. It's hard to go past

307
00:14:10,165 --> 00:14:13,245
Speaker 10: the fact that so many city signers have just been

308
00:14:13,365 --> 00:14:14,724
Speaker 10: killed just at the day of the beach.

309
00:14:15,925 --> 00:14:16,444
Speaker 1: Yeah.

310
00:14:16,485 --> 00:14:19,205
Speaker 2: And have you been talking to some of the eyewitnesses

311
00:14:19,205 --> 00:14:20,645
Speaker 2: that were there.

312
00:14:21,125 --> 00:14:23,565
Speaker 10: Yes, I spoke to one man, Ryan. He said he

313
00:14:23,645 --> 00:14:26,365
Speaker 10: was down at the bowling club. Actually they heard the

314
00:14:26,405 --> 00:14:29,525
Speaker 10: shots ringing out at the bowling clubs, so a lot

315
00:14:29,565 --> 00:14:31,965
Speaker 10: of them were under the tables. They didn't know what

316
00:14:32,045 --> 00:14:35,604
Speaker 10: was going on. He also told me that he was

317
00:14:36,165 --> 00:14:37,765
Speaker 10: worried that something like this was going to happen in

318
00:14:37,805 --> 00:14:41,485
Speaker 10: his neighborhood. That the acts of Andy Semitism had been

319
00:14:41,525 --> 00:14:44,965
Speaker 10: on the rise over the last year or so, so

320
00:14:45,165 --> 00:14:47,045
Speaker 10: he was worried something like this was going to happen.

321
00:14:47,525 --> 00:14:50,365
Speaker 2: Okay, Sean, for now, we'll leave you down there with

322
00:14:50,405 --> 00:14:52,085
Speaker 2: all the community as well. I'm sure we've been a

323
00:14:52,085 --> 00:14:53,925
Speaker 2: great support. Sean, thank you very much. A chance us

324
00:14:53,925 --> 00:14:55,765
Speaker 2: this morning. Take care, cheers guys.

325
00:14:56,285 --> 00:15:00,845
Speaker 4: The Christian O'Connell Show podcast as a situation in false

326
00:15:00,885 --> 00:15:03,085
Speaker 4: we keeps you abreast with all the latest news from

327
00:15:03,085 --> 00:15:04,885
Speaker 4: the Towist attack and Bondai yesterday.

328
00:15:05,885 --> 00:15:07,925
Speaker 2: I really hope that we are being of some comfort

329
00:15:07,965 --> 00:15:10,125
Speaker 2: this morning. We're all trying to get through it together.

330
00:15:10,605 --> 00:15:14,405
Speaker 2: It's too much. It's actually just unbearable to be able

331
00:15:14,445 --> 00:15:17,405
Speaker 2: to process. I think it's going to take people a

332
00:15:17,405 --> 00:15:19,005
Speaker 2: really long time to understand.

333
00:15:19,045 --> 00:15:21,805
Speaker 1: I don't think you can understand. It's like a horror show.

334
00:15:21,845 --> 00:15:24,485
Speaker 2: When you look back at the footage, because these days

335
00:15:24,565 --> 00:15:27,725
Speaker 2: we see so much more footage than any other time

336
00:15:27,725 --> 00:15:28,285
Speaker 2: in history.

337
00:15:29,205 --> 00:15:31,045
Speaker 1: It's overwhelming. The horror of it.

338
00:15:31,365 --> 00:15:34,445
Speaker 2: I start watching a never ending twenty four hour horror show,

339
00:15:34,725 --> 00:15:36,045
Speaker 2: and so I really want to make sure on the

340
00:15:36,045 --> 00:15:39,685
Speaker 2: show today we are obviously being with you in what happened,

341
00:15:39,885 --> 00:15:43,125
Speaker 2: but also reminding everyone that this is a horror show,

342
00:15:43,125 --> 00:15:46,765
Speaker 2: because that's not Australia. You know, that isn't Australia. That

343
00:15:46,965 --> 00:15:52,685
Speaker 2: hero Ahmed, that's Australia. A man running towards danger, tackling

344
00:15:52,765 --> 00:15:56,365
Speaker 2: an active shooter, taking the gun off him and not

345
00:15:56,605 --> 00:15:58,685
Speaker 2: using it on him, A dad himself, he's a dad

346
00:15:58,725 --> 00:16:01,244
Speaker 2: in his forties. I cannot stop. I can't get the

347
00:16:01,285 --> 00:16:03,045
Speaker 2: image out of my mind. And that is the one

348
00:16:03,085 --> 00:16:05,165
Speaker 2: I encourage all of us to hang on to today.

349
00:16:05,485 --> 00:16:08,325
Speaker 2: That is Australia. That's what the world is seeing as well.

350
00:16:08,685 --> 00:16:10,765
Speaker 2: That's the image that we should remember today and keep

351
00:16:10,805 --> 00:16:13,245
Speaker 2: in our hearts. So today I want the show to

352
00:16:13,285 --> 00:16:16,045
Speaker 2: be a place for support and hope that as much

353
00:16:16,085 --> 00:16:19,725
Speaker 2: as we really feel the terror of what happened yesterday,

354
00:16:20,045 --> 00:16:22,325
Speaker 2: is also to remind ourselves that is not normal.

355
00:16:22,725 --> 00:16:23,604
Speaker 1: It is a freak show.

356
00:16:23,645 --> 00:16:26,325
Speaker 2: It's an aberration what happened yesterday, which is why it

357
00:16:26,445 --> 00:16:29,005
Speaker 2: is so shocking to us today waking up to it

358
00:16:29,285 --> 00:16:32,045
Speaker 2: feeling like some kind of hangover that my God, did

359
00:16:32,045 --> 00:16:34,484
Speaker 2: that really happens. It's almost like a physical pain you

360
00:16:34,645 --> 00:16:37,405
Speaker 2: feel trying to understand it. And so today I want

361
00:16:37,485 --> 00:16:39,725
Speaker 2: us to reminder that this is also an amazing city.

362
00:16:40,245 --> 00:16:45,005
Speaker 2: This is an incredible city and BONDI will hill. It's

363
00:16:45,045 --> 00:16:47,005
Speaker 2: going to take time, but there are people down there

364
00:16:47,045 --> 00:16:49,965
Speaker 2: right now on Monday morning. You've chosen to go to

365
00:16:50,045 --> 00:16:52,845
Speaker 2: work late, to go and stand together and just to

366
00:16:52,885 --> 00:16:56,285
Speaker 2: be there. And there's something beautiful about that and touching,

367
00:16:56,485 --> 00:16:58,725
Speaker 2: just to be there, not even to say any words

368
00:16:58,725 --> 00:17:00,965
Speaker 2: of comfort, just to show up. And it's an act

369
00:17:01,005 --> 00:17:05,004
Speaker 2: of defiance that actually, those idiots yesterday they took nothing.

370
00:17:05,685 --> 00:17:08,365
Speaker 2: You don't win, you don't take that from us. To

371
00:17:09,125 --> 00:17:11,085
Speaker 2: let's remind ourselves. I think we all need to know

372
00:17:11,165 --> 00:17:13,645
Speaker 2: this what makes Sydney great, because this is a hell

373
00:17:13,685 --> 00:17:16,845
Speaker 2: of a city. It is it really is a fantastic city.

374
00:17:17,045 --> 00:17:19,005
Speaker 2: What if you're a Sydney Sider real what is it

375
00:17:19,005 --> 00:17:20,685
Speaker 2: that makes Sydney so special to you?

376
00:17:20,885 --> 00:17:22,205
Speaker 3: And this is something I've noticed.

377
00:17:22,205 --> 00:17:24,484
Speaker 7: I've lived in Melbourne for the past seven years and

378
00:17:24,525 --> 00:17:26,965
Speaker 7: I miss it more than anything in the world. And

379
00:17:27,005 --> 00:17:30,285
Speaker 7: it's what makes yesterday, you know, even more heartbreaking. It

380
00:17:30,405 --> 00:17:34,085
Speaker 7: is the the beautiful beaches in Sydney. There is something

381
00:17:34,245 --> 00:17:37,885
Speaker 7: that it does almost on to your soul when you're

382
00:17:37,925 --> 00:17:40,005
Speaker 7: near the beach, when you're near the water, and Sydney

383
00:17:40,045 --> 00:17:43,365
Speaker 7: has the best beaches in the world. I've never been

384
00:17:43,765 --> 00:17:46,285
Speaker 7: to any other country that's come close to have it.

385
00:17:46,405 --> 00:17:48,325
Speaker 1: I know you've been to England. We have some of

386
00:17:48,405 --> 00:17:51,645
Speaker 1: the ugliest beaches in the world. There's no sand.

387
00:17:53,925 --> 00:17:54,885
Speaker 3: And they're so cool.

388
00:17:55,045 --> 00:17:57,245
Speaker 1: I actually think that's what affects the cricket team.

389
00:17:57,645 --> 00:18:00,005
Speaker 2: I think their spines are out of alignment from lying

390
00:18:00,005 --> 00:18:03,565
Speaker 2: on pebbly, rocky, flinty war fields of beaches.

391
00:18:03,845 --> 00:18:05,764
Speaker 7: I was there in summer and there were people in

392
00:18:05,845 --> 00:18:09,645
Speaker 7: full body wetsuits because it's so cold just to swim in.

393
00:18:09,605 --> 00:18:10,725
Speaker 1: The pretty features.

394
00:18:10,765 --> 00:18:13,805
Speaker 3: What is that terrible? But Sydney and to have it

395
00:18:13,885 --> 00:18:15,445
Speaker 3: like we're looking out on the harbor now.

396
00:18:15,365 --> 00:18:17,525
Speaker 1: To have it's a striking looking city.

397
00:18:17,725 --> 00:18:19,805
Speaker 7: Beautiful and to be able to go from the beach

398
00:18:20,045 --> 00:18:22,885
Speaker 7: to the city in twenty minutes is insane.

399
00:18:23,165 --> 00:18:25,285
Speaker 2: Yeah, Alex sure is Sydney cider as well. How are

400
00:18:25,285 --> 00:18:27,125
Speaker 2: you feeling this sawning as well? But you've been chating

401
00:18:27,165 --> 00:18:28,525
Speaker 2: to family and friends here and.

402
00:18:29,405 --> 00:18:32,485
Speaker 11: I'm really struggling, Christian. I'll be honest, mate, I'm really

403
00:18:32,485 --> 00:18:35,605
Speaker 11: struggling with it. And the reason I am struggling with

404
00:18:35,605 --> 00:18:37,245
Speaker 11: it is because that is such a special place to

405
00:18:37,845 --> 00:18:40,365
Speaker 11: me and my family and so many of my friends.

406
00:18:40,685 --> 00:18:43,725
Speaker 11: Bondi Beach. I was only there a few months ago

407
00:18:43,765 --> 00:18:46,365
Speaker 11: with my kids. My six year old twins Audrey and

408
00:18:46,365 --> 00:18:50,405
Speaker 11: Evy and Max who's four, were I'm going to be

409
00:18:50,405 --> 00:18:55,445
Speaker 11: emotional here because it cuts to your soul. I knew

410
00:18:55,445 --> 00:18:57,365
Speaker 11: i'd be struggling this morning, and I am. And I

411
00:18:57,405 --> 00:19:00,285
Speaker 11: look out the window here at this wonderful city. It's

412
00:19:00,325 --> 00:19:02,245
Speaker 11: the best city in the world, it really is, and

413
00:19:03,445 --> 00:19:06,965
Speaker 11: it's hurting badly. I'm hurting badly. My wife rang me,

414
00:19:07,005 --> 00:19:10,245
Speaker 11: Bonnie last night, you said indoors, just don't go anywhere tonight.

415
00:19:10,405 --> 00:19:14,045
Speaker 1: She was so worried. We now live in Melbourne and my.

416
00:19:14,045 --> 00:19:16,925
Speaker 11: Kids were born at the Prince of Wales Hospital, just

417
00:19:17,005 --> 00:19:19,965
Speaker 11: up the road from where this terrible, terrible tragedy happened.

418
00:19:20,285 --> 00:19:21,965
Speaker 11: My brother in law goes to the beach all the time.

419
00:19:22,045 --> 00:19:25,845
Speaker 11: My sister in law live nearby. I love this city

420
00:19:25,885 --> 00:19:28,325
Speaker 11: so much, and like Rio just said, I miss it too,

421
00:19:28,485 --> 00:19:34,125
Speaker 11: you know. And those beaches they're a safe space, especially

422
00:19:34,125 --> 00:19:34,725
Speaker 11: in Apace.

423
00:19:34,725 --> 00:19:37,205
Speaker 1: It's a family and people to hang out safely.

424
00:19:37,445 --> 00:19:41,205
Speaker 11: Yeah, the kids laughing, there's umbrellas, there's kabanas, there's ice cream.

425
00:19:41,925 --> 00:19:44,205
Speaker 11: We go there, we meet people there. And for this

426
00:19:44,285 --> 00:19:48,805
Speaker 11: to happen so close to Christmas, when everyone it's just

427
00:19:48,845 --> 00:19:53,045
Speaker 11: a joyous, wonderful time to be celebrating. And as Harneker is,

428
00:19:53,085 --> 00:19:56,765
Speaker 11: that celebration has lightness to the darkness. But the darkness

429
00:19:56,845 --> 00:19:59,605
Speaker 11: is back again and that is really really hard for

430
00:19:59,685 --> 00:20:00,205
Speaker 11: me to take.

431
00:20:00,805 --> 00:20:03,605
Speaker 2: All right, So today that's just reminds ourselves what makes

432
00:20:03,685 --> 00:20:06,845
Speaker 2: this city so special? I think it's nat to defiance

433
00:20:06,885 --> 00:20:10,484
Speaker 2: today that nothing really changed. We've lost too many people

434
00:20:10,605 --> 00:20:12,485
Speaker 2: and there are more and more people who are in

435
00:20:12,525 --> 00:20:14,765
Speaker 2: serious conditions this morning. We'll get the latest in two

436
00:20:14,765 --> 00:20:17,725
Speaker 2: minutes time. But this is also an amazing city and

437
00:20:17,725 --> 00:20:20,245
Speaker 2: we are lucky to be alive in this city. So

438
00:20:20,405 --> 00:20:23,845
Speaker 2: texting or calling what makes this city so special?

439
00:20:24,285 --> 00:20:24,845
Speaker 1: So great?

00:21:06,125 --> 00:21:09,245
Speaker 12: So it's the first night of Kronic Coaches an aide festival.

456
00:21:09,445 --> 00:21:12,165
Speaker 12: So we had one event on Bono Bitch, which was

457
00:21:12,205 --> 00:21:14,125
Speaker 12: the one that was shot at, and then we had

458
00:21:14,125 --> 00:21:16,325
Speaker 12: another one in Dover Heights, which was the one luckily

459
00:21:16,405 --> 00:21:17,525
Speaker 12: I went to just up the road.

460
00:21:18,725 --> 00:21:21,685
Speaker 1: So this must have really shaken you up massively.

461
00:21:22,045 --> 00:21:24,925
Speaker 12: Yeah, yes, no, so there was must have been a

462
00:21:24,925 --> 00:21:27,165
Speaker 12: few thousand people. Of the one I was out, we

463
00:21:27,445 --> 00:21:30,205
Speaker 12: saw fifty or stove start running, so I said to

464
00:21:30,245 --> 00:21:32,445
Speaker 12: my mom, let's run and get out of here. We

465
00:21:32,485 --> 00:21:34,565
Speaker 12: went to a friend's house and went into lockdown for

466
00:21:34,565 --> 00:21:35,165
Speaker 12: a few hours.

Speaker 2: and friends and everyone in the Jewish community.

469
00:21:42,125 --> 00:21:45,045

Speaker 1: You worried? About more repercussions.

471
00:21:48,325 --> 00:21:50,965

472
00:21:50,965 --> 00:21:55,485
Speaker 12: the moment, but what has come out. One of the

473
00:21:55,525 --> 00:21:58,405
Speaker 12: men who was actually shot and killed was a rabbi,

474
00:21:58,485 --> 00:22:00,845
Speaker 12: had a six week old baby, and what he would

475
00:22:00,885 --> 00:22:03,205
Speaker 12: have wanted was for people not to be scared, for

476
00:22:03,245 --> 00:22:06,525
Speaker 12: people to be Jewish, be proud, and if you're not Jewish,

477
00:22:06,605 --> 00:22:10,125
Speaker 12: God do a good deal, donate mine, etc.

514
00:23:42,725 --> 00:23:45,845

00:23:50,245 --> 00:23:52,805
Speaker 2: this is a very very safe country and this is

518
00:23:52,845 --> 00:23:55,245
Speaker 2: an abarition. This is not a normal thing to happen,

519
00:23:55,405 --> 00:23:58,125

520
00:23:58,485 --> 00:24:01,205

Speaker 2: Thank you very much, Karen. He feels like you're the

780
00:35:01,365 --> 00:35:04,685
Speaker 2: unofficial mayor of Sydney welcoming me. Thank you very much, Karen.

781
00:35:04,845 --> 00:35:05,885
Speaker 2: And how are you this morning?

782
00:35:05,965 --> 00:35:06,285
Speaker 1: Karen?

783
00:35:06,965 --> 00:35:07,965
Speaker 9: I'm really good. Thank you.

784
00:35:08,765 --> 00:35:10,565
Speaker 1: Now, what do you want to say on the spillboards?

785
00:35:11,205 --> 00:35:13,485
Speaker 9: I think the message simply should be be kind to

786
00:35:13,605 --> 00:35:14,005
Speaker 9: each other.

787
00:35:14,725 --> 00:35:17,525
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's a lovely simple message, isn't it. Sentiment? Its

788
00:35:17,925 --> 00:35:18,525
Speaker 1: need more of that.

789
00:35:19,645 --> 00:35:22,365
Speaker 9: It takes less effort to be kind to than to

790
00:35:22,525 --> 00:35:25,925
Speaker 9: not be kind. So if everyone was kind, we wouldn't

791
00:35:25,925 --> 00:35:26,965
Speaker 9: have days like yesterday.

792
00:35:27,205 --> 00:35:31,364
Speaker 1: No, Karen, that's lovely. Have a lovely Christmas. Okay, thank

793
00:35:31,405 --> 00:35:32,884
Speaker 1: you so much, you too, Take care.

794
00:35:33,165 --> 00:35:36,405
Speaker 2: Thirteen fifty five twenty two will have all the latures

795
00:35:36,445 --> 00:35:37,125
Speaker 2: coming up next.

796
00:35:37,965 --> 00:35:40,525
Speaker 4: The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

797
00:35:41,325 --> 00:35:44,285
Speaker 2: Twenty minutes ago, I went to go for a little

798
00:35:44,325 --> 00:35:48,205
Speaker 2: walk around the station and I suddenly realized that it

799
00:35:48,405 --> 00:35:51,444
Speaker 2: was it was the first time I'd laughed in thirteen hours,

800
00:35:51,445 --> 00:35:53,045
Speaker 2: and I felt this tiny bit of guilt.

801
00:35:53,405 --> 00:35:56,005
Speaker 1: I felt, my god, it's okay to laugh.

802
00:35:55,885 --> 00:35:59,445
Speaker 2: Because the horror of what has happened is unbearable and

803
00:35:59,525 --> 00:36:01,364
Speaker 2: it's going to take so much time for this city

804
00:36:01,445 --> 00:36:04,085
Speaker 2: to heal and understand it. And you're waking up when

805
00:36:04,125 --> 00:36:07,125
Speaker 2: this kind of strange hangover. You look at the scenes

806
00:36:07,165 --> 00:36:09,125
Speaker 2: on your phone and it doesn't feel like, well, that

807
00:36:09,245 --> 00:36:12,325
Speaker 2: can't be BONDI. This isn't Australia, Ahmed.

808
00:36:12,365 --> 00:36:12,884
Speaker 1: It's the hero.

809
00:36:13,765 --> 00:36:16,285
Speaker 2: That's Australia, the Australia that we love here, that's the

810
00:36:16,365 --> 00:36:19,085
Speaker 2: lucky country, this kind country that Australia is.

811
00:36:19,485 --> 00:36:21,285
Speaker 1: The other stuff is just it's horrific.

812
00:36:21,325 --> 00:36:24,245
Speaker 2: And so today I really think it's important that actually

813
00:36:24,845 --> 00:36:27,125
Speaker 2: we do laugh, and we're not laughing because we don't

814
00:36:27,205 --> 00:36:29,965
Speaker 2: feel the horror of what happened. We're not with all

815
00:36:30,045 --> 00:36:32,885
Speaker 2: those people that have lost somebody and are worried about

816
00:36:32,965 --> 00:36:36,965
Speaker 2: somebody ten days for Christmas in hospital right now. An

817
00:36:37,325 --> 00:36:40,805
Speaker 2: it's a privilege to laugh because it means that you're alive,

818
00:36:41,365 --> 00:36:43,525
Speaker 2: and that's what our lives are today. It's a privilege.

819
00:36:43,805 --> 00:36:46,245
Speaker 2: There's something about what has happened like that. The horror

820
00:36:46,285 --> 00:36:49,365
Speaker 2: of it that it brings life into a sharper contrast.

821
00:36:49,725 --> 00:36:52,085
Speaker 2: We are lucky to be alive in this lucky country,

822
00:36:52,485 --> 00:36:55,125
Speaker 2: in this amazing city. It is important to have a

823
00:36:55,205 --> 00:36:57,285
Speaker 2: laugh today as well as feel and fill with the

824
00:36:57,365 --> 00:37:00,125
Speaker 2: tears as well. So during the next five minutes. I

825
00:37:00,245 --> 00:37:02,485
Speaker 2: say that now because actually we've got a feature where

826
00:37:02,525 --> 00:37:04,325
Speaker 2: you may resist laughter.

827
00:37:04,885 --> 00:37:09,205
Speaker 1: Let it if it's there, Let's just let it out.

828
00:37:09,245 --> 00:37:11,565
Speaker 1: Don't resist the laughter. He might be thinking, what are

829
00:37:11,565 --> 00:37:13,045
Speaker 1: you handling here? What have you got for us?

830
00:37:13,365 --> 00:37:16,484
Speaker 2: Okay, it's gonna have a lot of pression and okay,

831
00:37:16,525 --> 00:37:19,004
Speaker 2: funny guy, what have you got I've got some prank calls.

832
00:37:19,405 --> 00:37:21,445
Speaker 1: We're gonna call Carl and Jackie and fare them.

833
00:37:25,765 --> 00:37:27,285
Speaker 2: It's a feature that we're going to do every single

834
00:37:27,325 --> 00:37:30,364
Speaker 2: Monday with you guys. Is called mishard lyrics. And here's

835
00:37:30,405 --> 00:37:32,725
Speaker 2: how it works. You know, sometimes you hear a song

836
00:37:32,805 --> 00:37:35,245
Speaker 2: and suddenly you're like, wait, I didn't know he was

837
00:37:35,325 --> 00:37:37,965
Speaker 2: saying that. I thought he was saying something about a

838
00:37:38,085 --> 00:37:40,485
Speaker 2: meat tray he's took about meeting a lady.

839
00:37:40,565 --> 00:37:41,045
Speaker 1: I didn't know.

840
00:37:41,445 --> 00:37:44,165
Speaker 2: That's the misheard lyrics. We do them every Monday you're

841
00:37:44,205 --> 00:37:49,884
Speaker 2: gonna love them. It's just another misshard day Christian O'Connell's

842
00:37:50,045 --> 00:37:53,525
Speaker 2: miss hurd lyrics. All right, so every Monday rather than

843
00:37:53,525 --> 00:37:55,445
Speaker 2: another score run or wherever you are right now, you're

844
00:37:55,485 --> 00:37:57,045
Speaker 2: going to hear this when we play them back, and

845
00:37:57,165 --> 00:38:00,525
Speaker 2: we agree with what you think you're miss hearing when

846
00:38:00,605 --> 00:38:03,325
Speaker 2: we do not hear it all favor.

847
00:38:03,965 --> 00:38:08,005
Speaker 1: But for the really great ones, come on in. No,

848
00:38:08,285 --> 00:38:13,965
Speaker 1: that's not the right thing. Someone has labeled he's up incorrectly.

849
00:38:14,445 --> 00:38:16,005
Speaker 1: I know who this is. It's Brendan.

850
00:38:16,205 --> 00:38:19,404
Speaker 2: He's filthy about me taking over just when I thought

851
00:38:19,445 --> 00:38:21,405
Speaker 2: it was playing nice by inviting me on the show Friday.

852
00:38:21,565 --> 00:38:24,685
Speaker 2: It does this radio classic. Shame on you, Brendan. Or

853
00:38:24,805 --> 00:38:28,844
Speaker 2: is it Amanda the Smiling Assassin. Anyway, one of these

854
00:38:28,885 --> 00:38:32,485

928

00:43:32,685 --> 00:43:35,165

Speaker 2: We're going to do this again on Wednesday and Friday.

938
00:43:45,485 --> 00:43:49,565
Speaker 2: Today though when we were thinking about this, now it

939
00:43:49,645 --> 00:43:53,005
Speaker 2: feels like this is an opportunity for the right message

940
00:43:53,085 --> 00:43:56,285
Speaker 2: for Sydney today. So some of the ones that are

941

Speaker 2: still coming in, what do you want to say on

942
00:43:57,805 --> 00:44:01,165
Speaker 2: a billboard that literally hundreds of thousands of people driving

943
00:44:01,205 --> 00:44:03,165
Speaker 2: around Sydney today are going to see you all day long.

944
00:44:03,725 --> 00:44:07,165
Speaker 2: This is from Lorraine in Blacktown. Thank you, Lorraine, give

00:44:07,245 --> 00:44:12,725
Speaker 2: piece of chance people. Christian sending strength and courage. That's

946
00:44:12,725 --> 00:44:16,165
Speaker 2: from Bernadette, a very different tack here. And then a

947
00:44:16,245 --> 00:44:17,605
Speaker 2: lot of you going Christian and you're not going to

948
00:44:17,645 --> 00:44:19,565
Speaker 2: get a better message than Shane.

949
00:44:19,965 --> 00:44:21,485
Speaker 1: Shane is the one we're going to go for.

950
00:44:21,725 --> 00:44:23,725
Speaker 2: So Shane was the first person that called the show

951
00:44:23,725 --> 00:44:25,765
Speaker 2: about half an hour ago and said, I just want

952
00:44:25,805 --> 00:44:29,005
Speaker 2: the message to say good on your Ahmed, and that

953
00:44:29,245 --> 00:44:32,445
Speaker 2: is a great Aussie phrase, is good on you and

954
00:44:32,605 --> 00:44:37,605
Speaker 2: Ahmed is the world's biggest hero right now. He's doing well,

955
00:44:37,685 --> 00:44:43,125
Speaker 2: recovering in hospital. And he also not just an incredible

956
00:44:43,605 --> 00:44:45,685
Speaker 2: I've never seen anything like it in all my years,

957
00:44:46,045 --> 00:44:49,485
Speaker 2: a real act of courage like you've never seen before.

958
00:44:49,925 --> 00:44:52,165
Speaker 2: This is the clip that's going around the world right

959
00:44:52,245 --> 00:44:55,805
Speaker 2: now when people talk about Australia and the terrorist attack

960
00:44:55,885 --> 00:44:58,444
Speaker 2: of Bondi. That is the clip, the only that clip

961
00:44:58,565 --> 00:45:00,925
Speaker 2: is the one that we should be seeing. It reminds

962
00:45:01,005 --> 00:45:04,525
Speaker 2: us that actually, that's what we aspire to be. Armed

963
00:45:04,685 --> 00:45:07,364
Speaker 2: is the best of us. What a selfless act. He's

964
00:45:07,365 --> 00:45:10,404
Speaker 2: a dad himself. He runs his own fruit shop. He's

965
00:45:10,445 --> 00:45:13,045
Speaker 2: going to be coming to in hospital, coming around this morning.

966
00:45:13,565 --> 00:45:16,325
Speaker 2: No idea that the world is talking about.

967
00:45:17,085 --> 00:45:18,565
Speaker 1: I can't wait. I hope we can get him on

968
00:45:18,605 --> 00:45:18,884
Speaker 1: the show.

969
00:45:18,965 --> 00:45:20,404
Speaker 3: I would that love to speak him.

970
00:45:20,405 --> 00:45:20,525
Speaker 2: Tom.

971
00:45:20,685 --> 00:45:23,045
Speaker 1: We'll go and chat to him. But anyway, Shane thinks

972
00:45:23,085 --> 00:45:24,685
Speaker 1: it should say up there on these three.

973
00:45:24,525 --> 00:45:27,285
Speaker 2: Billboards we've got today from ten o'clock this morning, God

974
00:45:27,365 --> 00:45:28,165
Speaker 2: on your armed.

975
00:45:28,605 --> 00:45:29,685
Speaker 1: I think that's the one we go with.

976
00:45:29,765 --> 00:45:32,205
Speaker 3: It's perfect, isn't there just three words? But it sums

977
00:45:32,285 --> 00:45:32,965
Speaker 3: it up perfectly?

978
00:45:33,045 --> 00:45:36,885
Speaker 2: Yeah, sums aren't what we want to all be remembering

979
00:45:37,125 --> 00:45:40,565
Speaker 2: today is the bravery and that he chose love and

980
00:45:40,685 --> 00:45:45,325
Speaker 2: even when he disarmed a live shooter, he didn't he

981
00:45:45,405 --> 00:45:49,005
Speaker 2: didn't turn that weapon on him. Yeah, that's also so incredible.

982
00:45:49,205 --> 00:45:51,844
Speaker 2: But he got shot himself twice. He's doing very well.

983
00:45:51,925 --> 00:45:54,605
Speaker 2: He's going to make a full recovery. And yeah, so

984
00:45:54,965 --> 00:45:57,085
Speaker 2: Ahmed is going to go on the billboards. It's going

985
00:45:57,125 --> 00:45:59,885
Speaker 2: to say, good on your armed. Do we put a

986
00:45:59,885 --> 00:46:02,805
Speaker 2: little kiss at the end of that, aren't we on?
