39
00:02:10,245 --> 00:02:12,605
Speaker 1: I adore She's been a guest on my podcast. She

40
00:02:12,645 --> 00:02:16,245
Speaker 1: was the best guest on my podcast, Stuff of Legends,

41
00:02:16,285 --> 00:02:18,605
Speaker 1: and I had great guests like Ricky Gervais and Hamish Blake,

42
00:02:18,685 --> 00:02:21,965
Speaker 1: but Amanda's episode was the most popular one. They are,

43
00:02:22,205 --> 00:02:24,685
Speaker 1: trust me, after sol on doing breakfast radio. If you

44
00:02:24,725 --> 00:02:26,965
Speaker 1: spoke to them right now, they'd be smiling. You know.

45
00:02:27,005 --> 00:02:29,245
Speaker 1: They are looking forward to doing an afternoon show and

46
00:02:29,245 --> 00:02:32,045
Speaker 1: getting more sleep. So they've left it to us suckers

47
00:02:32,045 --> 00:02:34,285
Speaker 1: to do the breakfast show for the next few years.

48
00:02:34,285 --> 00:02:37,285
Speaker 1: So you get one great radio station come January. We're

49
00:02:37,285 --> 00:02:39,285
Speaker 1: going to be waking up in the morning. In the afternoon,

50
00:02:39,285 --> 00:02:41,925
Speaker 1: you get the brilliant double acts of Jonesy and Amanda.

51
00:02:42,325 --> 00:02:44,805
Speaker 1: But yeah, everywhere my wife gone this week, she's trying

52
00:02:44,805 --> 00:02:46,685
Speaker 1: to spread the good words. They don't want to hear

53
00:02:46,685 --> 00:02:47,245
Speaker 1: it right now.

54
00:02:47,525 --> 00:02:52,725
Speaker 4: It would have been a rough massage as she really

55
00:02:52,765 --> 00:02:53,644
Speaker 4: got those knots out.

56
00:02:54,405 --> 00:02:56,885
Speaker 1: So my point in saying is that is that we

57
00:02:57,405 --> 00:03:00,725
Speaker 1: are we are very aware of what you're going through

58
00:03:00,765 --> 00:03:02,805
Speaker 1: at the moment. It is a lot, it's so much,

59
00:03:02,805 --> 00:03:05,165
Speaker 1: it's so much. One of our team, Josh, went down

60
00:03:05,165 --> 00:03:08,364
Speaker 1: to Bondi yesterday to pay us suspects and we said

61
00:03:08,405 --> 00:03:10,924
Speaker 1: in a lot of the local first responders to drop

62
00:03:10,965 --> 00:03:13,165
Speaker 1: off some gifts, and even as he was telling me

63
00:03:13,165 --> 00:03:16,085
Speaker 1: about it, we were both getting emotional because it comes

64
00:03:16,125 --> 00:03:19,045
Speaker 1: in waves. I found that and I'm not from this city.

65
00:03:19,085 --> 00:03:20,765
Speaker 1: I've been spending a lot of time here next year

66
00:03:20,765 --> 00:03:23,805
Speaker 1: and I really have and owly extraordinary. My wife and

67
00:03:23,845 --> 00:03:26,325
Speaker 1: I've really fallen in love with Sydney, like really, like,

68
00:03:26,405 --> 00:03:28,685

Speaker 1: are we allowed into your mornings, which I totally get.

75

Speaker 1: We've got to earn your trust. I do hope that

76
00:03:46,525 --> 00:03:48,645
Speaker 1: we are providing some form of comfort and support in

77
00:03:48,685 --> 00:03:50,805
Speaker 1: a really hard week. And so what we've been doing

78
00:03:50,805 --> 00:03:53,005

Speaker 1: and celebrate. There's obviously Ahmed, you know, and thank just

82
00:04:03,365 --> 00:04:05,845

00:04:05,885 --> 00:04:09,085
Speaker 1: on to. It's such a senseless act on so Say Night,

84
00:04:09,245 --> 00:04:11,925
Speaker 1: and it's not just armored. Armored did something incredible. But

Speaker 1: lives wrestling with the gunman as soon as they got

87
00:04:17,885 --> 00:04:20,685
Speaker 1: out the car for a couple of minutes. Incredible, incredible

88
00:04:20,685 --> 00:04:22,725
Speaker 1: acts of heroism. So we start the show the right

00:07:26,045 --> 00:07:28,685
Speaker 6: have them minute silence, but then after that they had

158
00:07:29,045 --> 00:07:33,045
Speaker 6: a round of applause for those first responders, for those

159
00:07:33,245 --> 00:07:35,645
Speaker 6: people things to do, and there were there were smiles

160
00:07:35,645 --> 00:07:38,565
Speaker 6: on faces, which I thought was really touching, you know,

161
00:07:38,645 --> 00:07:41,885
Speaker 6: to honor those people, to say hey, thank you and

162
00:07:41,925 --> 00:07:44,045
Speaker 6: we're going to clap for you right now because you

163
00:07:44,125 --> 00:07:48,085
Speaker 6: did something extraordinary arriving on that scene and caring for

164
00:07:48,125 --> 00:07:50,445
Speaker 6: those poor people. So I thought it was really well

165
00:07:50,445 --> 00:07:51,085
Speaker 6: done yesterday.

166
00:07:51,205 --> 00:07:53,124
Speaker 1: All right, if you know any stories of hope that

Speaker 3: But Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

171
00:08:02,845 --> 00:08:06,245
Speaker 1: We're staying in many this week in quind of Dark

172
00:08:07,364 --> 00:08:11,485
Speaker 1: actually is Smulley Airbnb. The wife is really happy about.

173
00:08:13,845 --> 00:08:16,005
Speaker 1: So she went to have a massage yesterday and I

174
00:08:16,085 --> 00:08:20,325
Speaker 1: went for a little wonder and I suddenly saw a

175
00:08:20,565 --> 00:08:23,804
Speaker 1: really beautiful, old looking pub right Hotel Stained. People know

176
00:08:23,845 --> 00:08:26,485
Speaker 1: this pub in that area, and I went in because

177
00:08:26,525 --> 00:08:29,485
Speaker 1: of the they had me on. Two great slogans outside

178
00:08:29,845 --> 00:08:33,725
Speaker 1: it simply said rooftop and I knew obviously from living

179
00:08:33,804 --> 00:08:35,964
Speaker 1: him in seven years. Australians don't you like to use

180
00:08:36,005 --> 00:08:37,845
Speaker 1: too many letters and words where they don't have to.

181
00:08:38,125 --> 00:08:40,605
Speaker 1: I think it's the heat. You got to preserve your energy.

182
00:08:40,925 --> 00:08:43,724
Speaker 1: So I pres went they mean rooftop bar, because Australians

183
00:08:43,765 --> 00:08:46,765
Speaker 1: love a rooftop bar. So excited and didn't say, now

184
00:08:46,765 --> 00:08:49,325
Speaker 1: in England we do have rooftop bars, not that many.

185
00:08:49,485 --> 00:08:50,925
Speaker 1: Why would you want to go and have your drink

186
00:08:50,965 --> 00:08:54,405
Speaker 1: in the rain. You know it's gray, low clouds, snow

187
00:08:54,485 --> 00:08:56,605
Speaker 1: hanging out or snow hanging over your heads, but we

188
00:08:56,605 --> 00:08:59,085
Speaker 1: would say rooftop bar. Here another fact that we just

189
00:08:59,125 --> 00:09:00,844
Speaker 1: know you know what I'm talking. I don't need you

190
00:09:00,965 --> 00:09:03,725
Speaker 1: to say. I just seem to say rooftop. And then

191
00:09:03,765 --> 00:09:07,684
Speaker 1: the other one was round bar. Ah she used to

192
00:09:07,725 --> 00:09:11,005
Speaker 1: love that horse, that big kind of community round bar.

193
00:09:11,645 --> 00:09:13,605
Speaker 1: So I was like, look, okay, I'm not going up

194
00:09:13,605 --> 00:09:15,605
Speaker 1: on the roof, not on this boiling weather. Okay, but

195
00:09:15,725 --> 00:09:19,165
Speaker 1: the round bar take my money. I go in and

196
00:09:19,285 --> 00:09:22,724
Speaker 1: is a beautiful horseshoe bar. And obviously there's there's people

197
00:09:22,765 --> 00:09:27,125
Speaker 1: are all watching the cricket. Okay. And the guy serves

198
00:09:27,204 --> 00:09:29,125
Speaker 1: me and he recordiz my accent. He's like a brave

199
00:09:29,165 --> 00:09:31,725
Speaker 1: man coming in here. I said, are there any other goes? No,

200
00:09:31,925 --> 00:09:34,165
Speaker 1: you're the only one I've seen. I said, do I

201
00:09:34,165 --> 00:09:36,124
Speaker 1: need to go and hide on the roof? Is he

202
00:09:36,245 --> 00:09:39,045
Speaker 1: just lying? So I just sort of started whispering any

203
00:09:39,125 --> 00:09:41,925
Speaker 1: conversations with people. So anyway, while I'm in there. When

204
00:09:41,925 --> 00:09:43,564
Speaker 1: I was it was from eight This pub is from

205
00:09:43,605 --> 00:09:44,925
Speaker 1: eighteen seventy nine.

206
00:09:45,204 --> 00:09:46,325
Speaker 2: What's before federation?

207
00:09:46,525 --> 00:09:49,605
Speaker 1: Yes, that's a very old pub. I'd love to find

208
00:09:49,605 --> 00:09:52,444
Speaker 1: out what is Sydney's oldest pub? To be hard to be,

209
00:09:52,684 --> 00:09:54,005
Speaker 1: that's got to be one of them, Shorty.

210
00:09:54,165 --> 00:09:57,365
Speaker 5: Yeah, the rock isn't it? Isn't it the great Fortune

211
00:09:57,405 --> 00:09:58,285
Speaker 5: of war or something?

212
00:09:58,605 --> 00:10:01,725
Speaker 1: All right, that's exactly right. How do you tune up?

213
00:10:01,885 --> 00:10:05,285
Speaker 1: Patsy is a seasoned pub fighter and drinker, and she's

214
00:10:05,324 --> 00:10:08,124
Speaker 1: been spending money this week going round bars and fighting.

215
00:10:07,725 --> 00:10:09,045
Speaker 2: People for cash fights.

216
00:10:09,204 --> 00:10:14,005
Speaker 5: I honestly, Sydney has some of the most sensational pubs.

217
00:10:14,045 --> 00:10:16,204
Speaker 1: It really does, yeh. Story.

218
00:10:16,485 --> 00:10:19,604
Speaker 5: They have not torn them down. Melbourne tends to tear

219
00:10:19,684 --> 00:10:22,965
Speaker 5: stuff down and rebuild, but they cherish their pubs and

220
00:10:23,005 --> 00:10:24,405
Speaker 5: they are just a thing of beauty.

221
00:10:24,405 --> 00:10:26,165
Speaker 1: Look you, you've been out in Melbourne, the city you're

222
00:10:26,165 --> 00:10:27,765
Speaker 1: born and prayed your mum and dad live, and you've

223
00:10:27,765 --> 00:10:30,005
Speaker 1: been out of it four days and now you're throwing

224
00:10:30,045 --> 00:10:32,925
Speaker 1: shade on them now, dare you? But yesterday some of

225
00:10:32,925 --> 00:10:35,324
Speaker 1: our listeners have found us and they are crying right now.

226
00:10:35,365 --> 00:10:37,684
Speaker 1: They're week bits and the way do we never Patsy

227
00:10:38,444 --> 00:10:41,525
Speaker 1: Pub an old pub? You know why? She meets some

228
00:10:41,564 --> 00:10:44,165
Speaker 1: of her old friends in them, that one in eighteen

229
00:10:44,245 --> 00:10:46,364
Speaker 1: seventy nine. Pats is twin sister.

230
00:10:47,005 --> 00:10:49,365
Speaker 5: But you turn around the corner and there's another beautiful

231
00:10:49,365 --> 00:10:52,165
Speaker 5: pub and everyone's sitting outside and drinking in the sun

232
00:10:52,245 --> 00:10:53,684
Speaker 5: and just socializing.

233
00:10:54,245 --> 00:10:57,165
Speaker 1: The difference between a pub and a bar very big.

234
00:10:57,285 --> 00:10:57,444
Speaker 2: Yeah.

235
00:10:57,525 --> 00:11:00,484
Speaker 1: Bar is your shiny new one is yea, and they

236
00:11:00,525 --> 00:11:03,565
Speaker 1: are They're nice, but they're not the pub. Pub is

237
00:11:03,605 --> 00:11:06,085
Speaker 1: what you, you know, generationally you grew up in there, a

238
00:11:06,084 --> 00:11:09,564
Speaker 1: center of a community. Are kind of like a church,

239
00:11:09,645 --> 00:11:12,285
Speaker 1: but with alcohol. Actually churches do have alcoholics live. You

240
00:11:12,324 --> 00:11:14,965
Speaker 1: notice that too. The wine is a little bit earthy, though,

241
00:11:15,005 --> 00:11:16,285
Speaker 1: I find sometimes.

242
00:11:15,885 --> 00:11:17,485
Speaker 2: Yeah, the wineless isn't as long as anyway.

243
00:11:17,444 --> 00:11:19,605
Speaker 1: Then my wife has finished her massage right, and we

244
00:11:19,684 --> 00:11:22,165
Speaker 1: go for a restaurant in this Italian place that came

245
00:11:22,485 --> 00:11:25,165
Speaker 1: and we could only get the tabletop dining. It's fully

246
00:11:25,165 --> 00:11:28,725
Speaker 1: booked out, or so they said. My wife obviously wasn't

247
00:11:28,725 --> 00:11:31,684
Speaker 1: happy that we were being delegated to tabletop, you know.

248
00:11:31,765 --> 00:11:33,244
Speaker 1: And the lady went to me, she tried to sell

249
00:11:33,245 --> 00:11:34,564
Speaker 1: it to me. She went, hey, you know what you get.

250
00:11:34,684 --> 00:11:36,564
Speaker 1: You get a great dinner and you get a free show.

251
00:11:37,444 --> 00:11:40,205
Speaker 1: I don't like seeing them chopping the food up dinner

252
00:11:40,204 --> 00:11:42,484
Speaker 1: and a show. I don't want to see people walking

253
00:11:42,525 --> 00:11:46,165
Speaker 1: in the kitchen making money. Know it's not show, is it?

254
00:11:48,005 --> 00:11:52,885
Speaker 1: People working really hard in the heat, stressed. So anyway,

255
00:11:53,804 --> 00:11:56,645
Speaker 1: they and suddenly we realized why we're facing away from

256
00:11:56,725 --> 00:11:59,245
Speaker 1: the restaurant. It's where all the beautiful people go in

257
00:11:59,285 --> 00:12:02,925
Speaker 1: manly every time the door's open, it's a procession of more.

258
00:12:03,125 --> 00:12:07,405
Speaker 1: They look like runway models. Yeah, young, vibrant, perfect skin.

259
00:12:07,925 --> 00:12:11,165
Speaker 1: And then and we are facing the kitchen. Ugly table

260
00:12:11,204 --> 00:12:13,165
Speaker 1: we're on. I didn't want to say it, but that's

261
00:12:13,204 --> 00:12:16,365
Speaker 1: a good feeling I got was like, turn around, get

262
00:12:16,405 --> 00:12:19,765
Speaker 1: those old faces facing the kitchen. Maybe some steam can

263
00:12:20,125 --> 00:12:24,805
Speaker 1: steam out some of those wrinkles. Free botox. And my

264
00:12:24,845 --> 00:12:26,725
Speaker 1: wife keep going every five minutes. Excuse me, excuse me.

265
00:12:26,804 --> 00:12:29,125
Speaker 1: I can't help but notice some of these tables are

266
00:12:29,125 --> 00:12:32,365
Speaker 1: still empty, earthfully booked. The whole time we're in, those

267
00:12:32,405 --> 00:12:35,925
Speaker 1: tables in the shop window were empty. I'm now going

268
00:12:35,925 --> 00:12:37,564
Speaker 1: to say to the marketing I don't think you can

269
00:12:37,605 --> 00:12:39,725
Speaker 1: put me on a poster. Maybe just the back of

270
00:12:39,725 --> 00:12:43,285
Speaker 1: my head. That's how you sell that shut to Sydney

271
00:12:43,324 --> 00:12:43,925
Speaker 1: in the new year.

272
00:12:44,405 --> 00:12:48,604
Speaker 3: The Christian O'Connell show podcast The Proclaimers.

273
00:12:48,645 --> 00:12:51,045
Speaker 1: I can tell you this fact about the two Scottish

274
00:12:51,045 --> 00:12:55,565
Speaker 1: brothers with the very heavy glasses. They should be nown

275
00:12:55,605 --> 00:12:58,485
Speaker 1: for spanks savers. I was at the festival fifteen years

276
00:12:58,485 --> 00:13:00,845
Speaker 1: ago and I love Proclaimers. They're a great man. They're

277
00:13:00,845 --> 00:13:03,925
Speaker 1: brilliant live as well. And I was waiting in the

278
00:13:03,925 --> 00:13:06,525
Speaker 1: wings to bring them on stage right and I suddenly

279
00:13:06,525 --> 00:13:11,525
Speaker 1: see also stood near me is unmistakably Hollywood star Paul Rudd. Right,

280
00:13:11,605 --> 00:13:14,165
Speaker 1: So I go, are you fan? And he goes, yeah,

Speaker 1: about it introducing Do you want to come out with me?

283
00:13:17,965 --> 00:13:20,605
Speaker 1: He goes, would that be okay? I'd love that? And

284
00:13:20,684 --> 00:13:23,964
Speaker 1: so I met Paul Rudd and then we both went

285
00:13:23,965 --> 00:13:26,005
Speaker 1: on I've never met before my life. We both got

286
00:13:26,005 --> 00:13:29,165
Speaker 1: on stage together to introduce the Proclaimers. I've never seen

287
00:13:29,245 --> 00:13:32,525
Speaker 1: anyone enjoy them anything more. Whenever I see ant Man

288
00:13:32,525 --> 00:13:35,525

289
00:13:35,765 --> 00:13:39,205
Speaker 1: he smashed out those hits hit Spotify wrapped. It would

290
00:13:39,204 --> 00:13:40,684
Speaker 1: have had the Top five and there would have been

291
00:13:40,684 --> 00:13:43,725

301
00:14:09,125 --> 00:14:12,684
Speaker 1: in Sydney. It's been open since eighteen forty three, which

302
00:14:12,765 --> 00:14:15,204
Speaker 1: is pretty incressive. Impressive, but nothing compared to a lot

303
00:14:15,204 --> 00:14:17,645
Speaker 1: of the old pubs that you have yet. I've drunken

304

333
00:15:35,645 --> 00:15:40,405
Speaker 1: to Sydney. As I get to know this great city,

334
00:15:41,005 --> 00:15:42,805
Speaker 1: I want to fast track that process. I'm not going

335
00:15:42,885 --> 00:15:44,685
Speaker 1: to go on Google. I'm not going to ask AI.

336
00:15:45,285 --> 00:15:49,445
Speaker 1: I need the information, the real useless guide to Sydney

337
00:15:49,765 --> 00:15:52,685
Speaker 1: so fast, So much has been discovered, and actually a

338
00:15:52,725 --> 00:15:55,484
Speaker 1: lot of people are from Sydney. Don't know some of

339
00:15:55,565 --> 00:15:58,165
Speaker 1: these half truths. Doesn't matter if any of them are true.

340
00:15:58,605 --> 00:16:02,605
Speaker 1: Don't buy the fact checking it. We're not interested. All right,

341
00:16:02,645 --> 00:16:04,325
Speaker 1: weird and wonderful guy into Sydney. What have we got

342
00:16:04,325 --> 00:16:06,365
Speaker 1: so far? Rio? You had the first one.

343
00:16:06,445 --> 00:16:08,805
Speaker 4: Yes, first off we've got the town whole step which

344
00:16:08,845 --> 00:16:11,685
Speaker 4: was an intergenerational spot for teen loitering.

345
00:16:12,285 --> 00:16:14,125
Speaker 1: Perhapsy what if we as have we discovered?

346
00:16:14,125 --> 00:16:16,845
Speaker 5: Well, Alex brought up that there's a lone panther that

347
00:16:16,925 --> 00:16:19,285
Speaker 5: lives in the Blue Mountains and listener Bob is seen

348
00:16:19,405 --> 00:16:21,885
Speaker 5: not only not only once, but twice in the fact

349
00:16:22,005 --> 00:16:23,325
Speaker 5: that lives in the sewer system.

350
00:16:23,565 --> 00:16:26,484
Speaker 1: In fact, now it appears there's several. They're a roaming gang,

351
00:16:26,485 --> 00:16:30,405
Speaker 1: the panthers, roaming gang using the underground system to move

352
00:16:30,725 --> 00:16:33,965
Speaker 1: underneath us undetected up to under there. Well, yeah, I

353
00:16:33,965 --> 00:16:36,725
Speaker 1: think they've been. I think it's an underground system they

354
00:16:36,765 --> 00:16:39,725
Speaker 1: have all over Australia and they're probably helping the Australian

355
00:16:39,725 --> 00:16:43,845
Speaker 1: team cheat yesterday done moving that snick Oche they were

356
00:16:43,885 --> 00:16:46,325
Speaker 1: they were. I'm sure if we look at the image again,

357
00:16:46,365 --> 00:16:50,445
Speaker 1: there's a panther pore there, Alex, our shoud we discover.

358
00:16:50,365 --> 00:16:52,645
Speaker 6: Guard dogs at the Sydney Opera house to ward off

359
00:16:52,645 --> 00:16:54,085
Speaker 6: those pesky seagulls?

360
00:16:54,365 --> 00:16:56,805
Speaker 1: Are you trying to eat your chips? Now? This is true?

361
00:16:56,885 --> 00:16:57,885
Speaker 2: It sounds like a lie.

362
00:16:57,965 --> 00:17:00,765
Speaker 1: Mad dogs an Englishmen and its border colleagues. We found

363
00:17:00,765 --> 00:17:03,045
Speaker 1: out there is a company doing this. They do have

364
00:17:03,165 --> 00:17:06,004
Speaker 1: dogs that ward off. And we found out yesterday that

365
00:17:06,525 --> 00:17:11,244
Speaker 1: the pesky seagulls, there's a boss seagull and unless you

366
00:17:11,365 --> 00:17:13,485
Speaker 1: deter that one, it won't work.

367
00:17:13,725 --> 00:17:16,685
Speaker 2: Yes, you got to take this take the post.

368
00:17:16,205 --> 00:17:20,085
Speaker 1: The alpha goal, the alpha goal. All right, some brand

369
00:17:20,085 --> 00:17:22,045
Speaker 1: new ones. You've got a brand new one. So something

370
00:17:22,085 --> 00:17:23,645
Speaker 1: from our weird and wonderful going to Sydney.

371
00:17:23,725 --> 00:17:27,165
Speaker 4: Yes, I've got to tell you about the failure that

372
00:17:27,365 --> 00:17:30,525
Speaker 4: was the Sydney monorail built in nineteen.

373
00:17:30,565 --> 00:17:35,725
Speaker 1: Yes, the Simpsons moment. It was literally literally.

374
00:17:35,325 --> 00:17:40,445
Speaker 4: Like the Simpsons episode nineteen eighty eight. A private company

375
00:17:40,485 --> 00:17:44,005
Speaker 4: came in and pitched to Sydney, hey have this amazing future.

376
00:17:43,685 --> 00:17:46,125
Speaker 1: Of travel above the ground.

377
00:17:46,205 --> 00:17:49,405
Speaker 4: Around Darling Harbor, but only this very small loop around

378
00:17:49,485 --> 00:17:50,165
Speaker 4: Darling Harbor.

379
00:17:50,525 --> 00:17:55,365
Speaker 2: And exactly like the Simpsons episode, it was incredibly unreliable.

380
00:17:55,405 --> 00:17:58,045
Speaker 2: It broke down all the time. It was very ugly.

381
00:17:58,445 --> 00:18:00,205
Speaker 2: You could actually walk faster than.

382
00:18:00,125 --> 00:18:02,245
Speaker 4: It's if you wanted to get eight to point B,

383
00:18:02,605 --> 00:18:03,125
Speaker 4: you could just.

384
00:18:03,085 --> 00:18:05,365
Speaker 1: Walk past it get anywhere you want to go. Later.

385
00:18:06,125 --> 00:18:08,925
Speaker 4: One architect I'm just reading here called it the most

386
00:18:08,965 --> 00:18:11,525
Speaker 4: tragic thing that happened to the urban fabric of Sydney

387
00:18:11,565 --> 00:18:14,525
Speaker 4: and the most offensive structure I've ever seen in my life.

388
00:18:14,565 --> 00:18:15,764
Speaker 1: So how long did it last? For?

389
00:18:16,085 --> 00:18:19,005
Speaker 4: It went nineteen eighty eight to twenty thirteen. It was

390
00:18:19,045 --> 00:18:22,484
Speaker 4: pulled down because no one would use it. Also, no one, Well,

391
00:18:22,605 --> 00:18:25,085
Speaker 4: there's no possible use for any Sydney side to go

392
00:18:25,205 --> 00:18:27,005
Speaker 4: from one interdeing harbor to the other.

393
00:18:27,045 --> 00:18:28,685
Speaker 1: I'm afraid to say I have been on it.

394
00:18:28,885 --> 00:18:29,405
Speaker 2: You've been on that?

395
00:18:29,565 --> 00:18:32,445
Speaker 1: No I remember now, of course why not? Tourists came

396
00:18:32,485 --> 00:18:35,805
Speaker 1: here in two thousand and one monoail the future of travel,

397
00:18:35,805 --> 00:18:38,165
Speaker 1: and I just remember it was actually quite underwhelming. Yes

398
00:18:38,165 --> 00:18:41,045
Speaker 1: it's not anything, and also it was only tourists using

399
00:18:41,045 --> 00:18:43,485
Speaker 1: it as well, because obviously you locals knew. Yes, yes

400
00:18:43,565 --> 00:18:46,365
Speaker 1: it's nothing. No what this is not the vibe. It's

401
00:18:46,405 --> 00:18:47,285
Speaker 1: just not the place to be.

402
00:18:47,445 --> 00:18:48,805
Speaker 2: There's a better way to get from A to B.

403
00:18:49,085 --> 00:18:51,205
Speaker 1: It's Alex. Whatever you've got for my weird and wonderful

404
00:18:51,205 --> 00:18:52,045
Speaker 1: guide to Sydney today.

405
00:18:52,085 --> 00:18:53,605
Speaker 6: And just one more thing about the monael it's great

406
00:18:53,605 --> 00:18:54,565
Speaker 6: for people from the country.

407
00:18:54,765 --> 00:18:56,525
Speaker 1: People from the country love the monorail.

408
00:18:56,205 --> 00:18:58,085
Speaker 2: Which is like but anyway, I guess.

409
00:18:57,965 --> 00:19:00,925
Speaker 1: So wide eyed those farmers you know. Oh my word,

410
00:19:00,965 --> 00:19:03,165
Speaker 1: I mentioned this on the farm basically impressed mover in

411

Speaker 1: the barracks of hay in that Oh wow. And the

412
00:19:06,005 --> 00:19:10,125
Speaker 1: Clavelli Groba is pretty fast you it's animals. I thought

413
00:19:10,125 --> 00:19:11,165
Speaker 1: it was a headline you're going to touch.

414
00:19:11,205 --> 00:19:11,725
Speaker 2: Well, we don't.

415
00:19:11,765 --> 00:19:15,405
Speaker 1: I don't want like local sex press. You really got

00:19:25,845 --> 00:19:27,605
Speaker 1: like what it sounds. It's actually a fish.

420
00:19:27,645 --> 00:19:30,925
Speaker 6: It's this great, big blue groper and you'd be swimming

421
00:19:30,925 --> 00:19:33,405
Speaker 6: at Clavelly Beach and all of a sudden you'd feel

422
00:19:33,405 --> 00:19:40,485
Speaker 6: a presence, you'd feel something, but they're staring at you

423

Speaker 1: that tree cult cafe is and the varies in capitals.

467
00:21:45,725 --> 00:21:49,445
Speaker 1: It is very good. What elevates a cafe for me?

468
00:21:49,485 --> 00:21:51,445
Speaker 1: And that's a good cafe? Two? Very good?

469
00:21:51,565 --> 00:21:53,885
Speaker 2: Yeah, chili, scrambled eggs, scrambled eggs.

470
00:21:53,925 --> 00:21:54,045
Speaker 1: Yes.

471
00:21:54,845 --> 00:21:56,805
Speaker 5: The quality of their coffee is like major.

472
00:21:56,885 --> 00:21:59,165
Speaker 1: Why is there such a variety? You're right patch, Why

473
00:21:59,165 --> 00:22:00,125
Speaker 1: does it vary so much?

474
00:22:00,365 --> 00:22:01,325
Speaker 5: Is this different beans?

475
00:22:01,365 --> 00:22:04,285
Speaker 1: I guess why don't If you if you're arrival place

476
00:22:04,485 --> 00:22:07,365
Speaker 1: and you had they had more customers, you go and

477
00:22:07,405 --> 00:22:09,645
Speaker 1: try their coffee and then you maybe get a spy

478
00:22:09,685 --> 00:22:11,605
Speaker 1: in there and go whether they get the beans from.

479
00:22:11,725 --> 00:22:14,285
Speaker 1: We should do that. Surely you would just hone in

480
00:22:14,325 --> 00:22:17,165
Speaker 1: on where the rivals more popular bass getting the beans from.

481
00:22:17,525 --> 00:22:19,245
Speaker 1: She was stinking with mankey ass beans.

482
00:22:19,725 --> 00:22:22,365
Speaker 4: Your solution is to set up an elaborate y firing,

483
00:22:22,485 --> 00:22:24,445
Speaker 4: essentially go deep undercover.

484
00:22:24,805 --> 00:22:29,405
Speaker 1: I'd go on current affair, Christian. Did you know that

485
00:22:29,485 --> 00:22:32,525
Speaker 1: the Sydney Opera House is a nightmare to park? They

486
00:22:32,605 --> 00:22:35,685
Speaker 1: designed it without enough car parks because the architect who

487
00:22:35,725 --> 00:22:40,765
Speaker 1: designed it didn't drive. Now this is why we're doing

488
00:22:40,765 --> 00:22:43,805
Speaker 1: the Weird and Wonderful Guy to Sydney, that Danish guy. Yes,

489
00:22:47,325 --> 00:22:50,085
Speaker 1: that is fantastic. Thank you very much. As your contacts

490
00:22:50,085 --> 00:22:52,805
Speaker 1: on the show this week, please put your names on

491
00:22:52,845 --> 00:22:55,765
Speaker 1: your messages so we can say hello properly. But that

492
00:22:55,885 --> 00:22:58,365
Speaker 1: is a great one, as is this. When I first

493
00:22:58,365 --> 00:23:00,205
Speaker 1: moved to Australia seven years ago, obviously I had to

494
00:23:00,285 --> 00:23:03,925
Speaker 1: learn new language. Yes you know it's many English, but

495
00:23:04,205 --> 00:23:06,485
Speaker 1: there's so many varieties. I used to have a thing

496
00:23:06,565 --> 00:23:09,245
Speaker 1: in my in my phone just to help me out

497
00:23:09,245 --> 00:23:11,445
Speaker 1: as I was putting the pieces together and taking them apart,

498
00:23:12,125 --> 00:23:15,325
Speaker 1: and used to we just the note was labeled it's

499
00:23:15,365 --> 00:23:19,205
Speaker 1: not called that here. The first one was in the UK,

500
00:23:19,485 --> 00:23:21,405
Speaker 1: as you're a kid and you're out your bike and

501
00:23:21,405 --> 00:23:23,325
Speaker 1: you've got a friend behind you. In the UK, that's

502
00:23:23,365 --> 00:23:25,925
Speaker 1: a backie there on the back. It is simply called

503
00:23:25,965 --> 00:23:29,045
Speaker 1: a backie. Please don't google that. It might be called

504
00:23:29,085 --> 00:23:31,925
Speaker 1: something else. Now that's up to you. If you google

505
00:23:31,965 --> 00:23:35,485
Speaker 1: it and you see images, aren't aren't too young? That's

506
00:23:35,485 --> 00:23:39,805
Speaker 1: together on the bike and sweated. It's not called that here.

507
00:23:40,525 --> 00:23:42,845
Speaker 1: Now in Melbourne it's known as a dink.

508
00:23:43,645 --> 00:23:44,205
Speaker 5: Someone on you.

509
00:23:45,205 --> 00:23:47,445
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, that sounds rude as well.

510
00:23:50,205 --> 00:23:50,685
Speaker 2: You keep.

511
00:23:52,125 --> 00:23:54,805
Speaker 1: Yourself sir, But it's not called that here.

512
00:23:55,285 --> 00:23:55,445
Speaker 2: Yeah.

513
00:23:55,565 --> 00:23:58,845
Speaker 1: Double a double, yes, yes, now I get that. That

514
00:23:59,045 --> 00:24:02,045
Speaker 1: seems to make more sense than a dink double because

515
00:24:02,045 --> 00:24:06,605
Speaker 1: there's two of you. Double the fun exactly. I wonder

516
00:24:06,645 --> 00:24:09,445
Speaker 1: around the world what words they have for getting some

517
00:24:09,525 --> 00:24:11,565
Speaker 1: on the back of the bicycle. Yeah, it's such an

518
00:24:11,605 --> 00:24:14,205
Speaker 1: innocent thing. From growing up, Why was that so much fun?

519
00:24:14,605 --> 00:24:17,405
Speaker 2: Yeah, every kid had to do. It's like way to

520
00:24:17,405 --> 00:24:17,925
Speaker 2: get around.

521
00:24:17,965 --> 00:24:20,285
Speaker 1: But the most fun I always think was was riding

522
00:24:20,285 --> 00:24:22,765
Speaker 1: the bike. Being up front. Yeah, it was terrifying, but

523
00:24:23,165 --> 00:24:25,805
Speaker 1: behind got no control because also it was a personal

524
00:24:25,845 --> 00:24:28,245
Speaker 1: response because they had control and power to start doing

525
00:24:28,245 --> 00:24:33,325
Speaker 1: those works. Yeah, yeah, your passenger pothole. Yeah. Another thing though,

526
00:24:33,325 --> 00:24:35,565
Speaker 1: we've had a lot of messages about the great potholes

527
00:24:35,565 --> 00:24:39,725
Speaker 1: of Sydney. It is like driving around the moon. Why

528
00:24:39,725 --> 00:24:41,085
Speaker 1: are there's so many nipping potholes.

529
00:24:41,085 --> 00:24:43,325
Speaker 2: It's almost like we've put them there. There's so many.

530
00:24:43,845 --> 00:24:46,605
Speaker 1: There's a tourist attraction. Yeah, come see the great potholes

531
00:24:46,645 --> 00:24:48,445
Speaker 1: of Sydney. All right, keep this coming our GUYE to

Speaker 3: The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

00:24:56,165 --> 00:24:58,845
Speaker 1: Thank you very much for everyone who's been sending us

536
00:24:58,925 --> 00:25:02,645
Speaker 1: emails and notes. Is an extraordinary week in Sydney, and

537
00:25:02,725 --> 00:25:05,125
Speaker 1: the fact that you're taking any times as you struggle

538
00:25:05,245 --> 00:25:08,165
Speaker 1: to process everything that's happened and happening as well to

539
00:25:08,205 --> 00:25:11,325
Speaker 1: send us us notes as well saying hello and welcome

540
00:25:11,365 --> 00:25:14,685
Speaker 1: to Sydney. I've got a really really important email actually

541
00:25:14,765 --> 00:25:17,445
Speaker 1: Yester evening that I just wanted to share now from

542
00:25:17,525 --> 00:25:21,165
Speaker 1: Melody Palmer. Christian. Welcome first of all to Sydney Radio.

543
00:25:21,605 --> 00:25:24,085
Speaker 1: Thank you Melody. We'd like to just talk about the

544
00:25:24,125 --> 00:25:27,805
Speaker 1: completely unsung heroes of our police officers. It's very easy

545
00:25:27,845 --> 00:25:29,565
Speaker 1: for people to say they're just doing their job, but

546
00:25:29,605 --> 00:25:32,685
Speaker 1: I'm here to say is much more than that. My wife,

547
00:25:32,805 --> 00:25:35,325
Speaker 1: a nearly thirty year veteran, could benny contain the need

548
00:25:35,365 --> 00:25:37,445
Speaker 1: to act. She sat at the dinner table with her

549
00:25:37,445 --> 00:25:39,885
Speaker 1: phone blowing up Sunday night. Her face was set like

550
00:25:40,045 --> 00:25:42,244
Speaker 1: stone about not being there to help. I can only

551
00:25:42,285 --> 00:25:44,925
Speaker 1: imagine how many other officers all over New South Wales

552
00:25:45,085 --> 00:25:47,845
Speaker 1: that grip their phone in horror. You can't pay someone

553
00:25:47,885 --> 00:25:50,565
Speaker 1: for that when people are running away, Our policemen and

554
00:25:50,565 --> 00:25:53,765
Speaker 1: women are running toward danger. In mostly all the eyewitness

555
00:25:53,805 --> 00:25:56,925
Speaker 1: footage I saw this tablet instant. I saw police officers crouched,

556
00:25:57,005 --> 00:25:59,605
Speaker 1: guns drawn down, ready to act. Every single one of

557
00:25:59,645 --> 00:26:01,565
Speaker 1: these people wanted to go home to the loved ones

558
00:26:01,565 --> 00:26:03,845
Speaker 1: that night. Not all of them did, and many will

559
00:26:03,885 --> 00:26:06,445
Speaker 1: carry yet another scar of a job they put their

560
00:26:06,485 --> 00:26:09,885
Speaker 1: hand up to do. Melody, really really important reminder. And

561
00:26:09,925 --> 00:26:12,285
Speaker 1: I think over the next couple of days, whenever you

562
00:26:12,405 --> 00:26:15,965
Speaker 1: see a first responder out about, thank them, Just ask

563
00:26:16,125 --> 00:26:18,565
Speaker 1: how they are and thank them for their service. Now

564
00:26:18,565 --> 00:26:20,685
Speaker 1: on this the last couple of days, we've been talking

565
00:26:20,725 --> 00:26:23,165
Speaker 1: about the first responders and what can we do to

566
00:26:23,205 --> 00:26:25,885
Speaker 1: help them. A couple of weeks ago, I came with

567
00:26:25,925 --> 00:26:28,165
Speaker 1: the idea that I wanted to come and do the

568
00:26:28,205 --> 00:26:30,045
Speaker 1: show here this week to get to know you guys.

569
00:26:30,285 --> 00:26:32,805
Speaker 1: So we arrived Sunday afternoon and we all know what

570
00:26:32,885 --> 00:26:35,885
Speaker 1: unfolded Saturday night. We had all these ideas and plans

571
00:26:35,965 --> 00:26:37,725
Speaker 1: I'm sure many of you did for what this week

572
00:26:37,805 --> 00:26:39,685
Speaker 1: was going to be like. And one of the things

573
00:26:39,685 --> 00:26:41,605
Speaker 1: I do know about your Australians is you love a

574
00:26:41,645 --> 00:26:44,805
Speaker 1: Christmas ham. And we had twenty five these Christmas hams

575
00:26:45,125 --> 00:26:48,045
Speaker 1: and suddenly not right to start just giving Christmas hands

576
00:26:48,085 --> 00:26:50,645
Speaker 1: away for obvious reasons, but I thought, we've got someone

577
00:26:50,645 --> 00:26:52,085
Speaker 1: why don't we go and give them to some of

578
00:26:52,085 --> 00:26:56,085
Speaker 1: the local first responders as a small thank you if

579
00:26:56,085 --> 00:26:58,725
Speaker 1: they want them. And so Joshama Show went down to

580
00:26:58,765 --> 00:27:01,525
Speaker 1: Bondai yesterday and to see some of the first responders

581
00:27:01,725 --> 00:27:03,365
Speaker 1: and you can hear how he got on next. He's

582
00:27:03,365 --> 00:27:06,205
Speaker 1: got some beautiful stories before that. This is the song

583
00:27:06,245 --> 00:27:08,685
Speaker 1: really that he speaks to what Melody and all the

584
00:27:08,725 --> 00:27:09,925
Speaker 1: first responders do for us.

585
00:27:10,525 --> 00:27:13,685
Speaker 3: Christian O'Connell show go on podcast.

586
00:27:14,085 --> 00:27:17,045
Speaker 1: So, like I was saying, we had these Christmas hams

587
00:27:17,485 --> 00:27:19,645
Speaker 1: and last week it seemed like this would be a

588
00:27:19,685 --> 00:27:21,485
Speaker 1: nice way to say hello. It feels like, you know,

589
00:27:22,085 --> 00:27:24,685
Speaker 1: I'm moving into a new neighborhood and going around all

590
00:27:24,685 --> 00:27:27,165
Speaker 1: the local neighbors saying hello, introducing myself and I've got

591
00:27:27,205 --> 00:27:29,805
Speaker 1: a gift for you before Christmas, okay, And so now

592
00:27:29,805 --> 00:27:32,165
Speaker 1: we had it this week, everything changed and it is

593
00:27:32,405 --> 00:27:34,445
Speaker 1: we're all where we can't be doing that, it's not right.

594
00:27:34,685 --> 00:27:37,125
Speaker 1: But look, we've got these Christmas hams. Why do we

595
00:27:37,125 --> 00:27:39,125
Speaker 1: give them some the first responders if they'd like them.

596
00:27:39,165 --> 00:27:42,085
Speaker 1: So yesterday a lovely man on the show called Josh

597
00:27:42,245 --> 00:27:44,605
Speaker 1: You went down to Bondi You went to the first

598
00:27:44,645 --> 00:27:47,725
Speaker 1: responders to see if they wanted these just very small

599
00:27:47,725 --> 00:27:49,645
Speaker 1: gifts to say we see you and thank you for

600
00:27:49,685 --> 00:27:51,765
Speaker 1: your service. So what was that like?

601
00:27:53,045 --> 00:27:56,805
Speaker 7: It was a really special moment and one that I

602
00:27:56,845 --> 00:27:58,725
Speaker 7: didn't know was going to be as special as it was.

603
00:27:58,805 --> 00:28:02,125
Speaker 7: But as I went down to Tema Emma Surf Life

604
00:28:02,125 --> 00:28:05,165
Speaker 7: Saving Club, which is now their sort of main meeting

605
00:28:05,205 --> 00:28:09,045
Speaker 7: point to sort of connect to do debriefs, and so

606
00:28:09,285 --> 00:28:11,285
Speaker 7: I knew I was kind of going to a main

607
00:28:11,365 --> 00:28:14,045
Speaker 7: point for them, and I didn't even know how to

608
00:28:14,285 --> 00:28:15,725
Speaker 7: enter him. Was it the front door, was it the

609
00:28:15,765 --> 00:28:17,925
Speaker 7: back door? How do you enter a stiff life saving club,

610
00:28:18,245 --> 00:28:18,965
Speaker 7: and do you want.

611
00:28:18,805 --> 00:28:20,565
Speaker 1: To get in the way. They're also an act of

612
00:28:20,605 --> 00:28:23,205
Speaker 1: life saving club. You don't want to be an inconvenienced.

613
00:28:23,205 --> 00:28:25,764
Speaker 1: But we wanted to go down and say thank you.

614
00:28:25,885 --> 00:28:28,005
Speaker 1: I'm laugh not just us on the team here, but

615
00:28:28,285 --> 00:28:30,005
Speaker 1: everyone in Sydney absolutely.

616
00:28:30,725 --> 00:28:32,805
Speaker 7: And I met a gentleman by the name of Ben

617
00:28:32,885 --> 00:28:36,725
Speaker 7: there and he was sort of working out already, you know,

618
00:28:37,605 --> 00:28:39,685
Speaker 7: shirt off, ready to go and jump in the water,

619
00:28:40,205 --> 00:28:42,685
Speaker 7: and he met me with so much warmth and straight

620
00:28:42,725 --> 00:28:47,565
Speaker 7: away he was just taken by the gesture and nothing

621
00:28:47,605 --> 00:28:50,525
Speaker 7: more than just a big thank you. And he told

622
00:28:50,565 --> 00:28:52,685
Speaker 7: me straight away that I needed to speak with a

623
00:28:52,685 --> 00:28:56,965
Speaker 7: couple of other people, and one was a man named

624
00:28:57,045 --> 00:29:00,285
Speaker 7: Rory who actually on Sunday was there when it was

625
00:29:00,365 --> 00:29:03,525
Speaker 7: all happening and all the chaos. His first instinct was

626
00:29:03,565 --> 00:29:07,285
Speaker 7: to actually run towards the water and to save people.

627
00:29:08,205 --> 00:29:10,885
Speaker 1: And truly, and this is because obviously people were trying

628
00:29:10,885 --> 00:29:12,925
Speaker 1: to find a safe refuge in the water.

629
00:29:13,245 --> 00:29:16,485
Speaker 7: Yeah, people freaking out, not knowing what to do. And

630
00:29:17,965 --> 00:29:20,405
Speaker 7: it just really makes it very very real in that

631
00:29:20,485 --> 00:29:24,965
Speaker 7: moment to hear firsthand just how brave, how incredibly.

632
00:29:24,445 --> 00:29:27,725
Speaker 1: Brave, and the young kids, yeah.

633
00:29:27,045 --> 00:29:32,445
Speaker 7: Yeah, and to not think of yourself and it's just

634
00:29:32,485 --> 00:29:34,245
Speaker 7: a lovely thing to be able to give them something.

635
00:29:34,805 --> 00:29:39,365
Speaker 7: And yeah, I think even now it's it's just to

636
00:29:39,405 --> 00:29:41,525
Speaker 7: your point there just being able to say a hello

637
00:29:41,605 --> 00:29:45,205
Speaker 7: to people and really almost just that human element that

638
00:29:45,605 --> 00:29:48,805
Speaker 7: people are there and people are being brave. It's quite

639
00:29:48,805 --> 00:29:50,925
Speaker 7: a special thing to actually hear it firsthand.

640
00:29:50,965 --> 00:29:54,725
Speaker 1: What was it like to go down a Bondi's.

641
00:29:53,925 --> 00:29:54,925
Speaker 2: It's very silent.

642
00:29:55,005 --> 00:29:57,085
Speaker 7: It's almost like the air and like time is like

643
00:29:57,165 --> 00:29:59,565
Speaker 7: standing still, like everything's slower down.

644
00:29:59,405 --> 00:30:02,645
Speaker 1: There, boys sacred ground now, isn't it? Yeah? Unwittingly it has,

645
00:30:02,725 --> 00:30:05,045
Speaker 1: you know, when you sent me a photo of it yesterday,

646
00:30:05,365 --> 00:30:07,405
Speaker 1: I really felt just from the photo the silence of it,

647
00:30:07,445 --> 00:30:09,485
Speaker 1: because actually going to Bond that is not a place

648
00:30:09,525 --> 00:30:12,805
Speaker 1: of silence. Normally it's a place of noise, chaos, laughter,

649
00:30:13,285 --> 00:30:17,525
Speaker 1: people meeting up, you know, life happening there vividly and

650
00:30:17,525 --> 00:30:20,405
Speaker 1: and all the stuff I've seen. It's very very quiet, obviously,

651
00:30:20,965 --> 00:30:22,765
Speaker 1: it's just so strikingly different.

652
00:30:22,925 --> 00:30:26,405
Speaker 7: Absolutely, and you know, nobody speaking, but then there is

653
00:30:26,485 --> 00:30:30,205
Speaker 7: sort of communication with the prayers and the loves and

654
00:30:30,205 --> 00:30:30,765
Speaker 7: the thought.

655
00:30:30,765 --> 00:30:32,765
Speaker 1: Is an act of silent respect, isn't it that Actually

656
00:30:32,845 --> 00:30:35,605
Speaker 1: they don't need the words. The silence is are the words?

657
00:30:36,805 --> 00:30:38,725
Speaker 1: And so you went also to other first responders. You

658
00:30:38,765 --> 00:30:39,405
Speaker 1: went to the police.

659
00:30:39,485 --> 00:30:44,805
Speaker 7: Yeah, went to Bondo Police station and I was wondering

660
00:30:44,845 --> 00:30:46,365
Speaker 7: if they can accept it, like is it in their

661
00:30:46,405 --> 00:30:47,085
Speaker 7: company policy?

662
00:30:47,085 --> 00:30:50,885
Speaker 1: Again, been told by the ambulance staff couldn't accept them.

663
00:30:51,005 --> 00:30:54,165
Speaker 1: They're not allowed to accept gifts, which I find extraordinary.

664
00:30:55,005 --> 00:30:57,285
Speaker 1: I think that's a real shame. So anyway, you went

665
00:30:57,285 --> 00:30:59,645
Speaker 1: to the police station and how are they Yeah, they

666
00:30:59,645 --> 00:31:00,525
Speaker 1: grabbed those hands off.

667
00:31:00,525 --> 00:31:01,445
Speaker 2: Here the.

668
00:31:02,925 --> 00:31:03,965
Speaker 1: Fish were the hams.

669
00:31:05,445 --> 00:31:07,245
Speaker 2: They had to get clear and they asked.

670
00:31:07,645 --> 00:31:09,925
Speaker 7: I spoke with a gentleman named Andrew and he goes,

671
00:31:09,965 --> 00:31:12,405
Speaker 7: I've just got to check check with my sergeant. And

672
00:31:12,885 --> 00:31:14,725
Speaker 7: he went away and came back and came back with

673
00:31:14,765 --> 00:31:15,965
Speaker 7: the biggest smile on his face.

674
00:31:17,525 --> 00:31:20,445
Speaker 1: What else is that sergeant going to say? Staying in

675
00:31:20,445 --> 00:31:22,405
Speaker 1: at ten seconds and we get at the chip, how

676
00:31:22,405 --> 00:31:25,485
Speaker 1: many as you reckon it's gone, follow him, see where

677
00:31:25,525 --> 00:31:29,005
Speaker 1: he goes, come back to his face, get more Christmas hands.

678
00:31:29,565 --> 00:31:32,405
Speaker 1: Who doesn't love a Christmas hand? Right? So they took

679
00:31:32,445 --> 00:31:34,445
Speaker 1: the hams. They did great, they did.

680
00:31:34,965 --> 00:31:38,445
Speaker 7: And then as I was leaving it, really it's stopped

681
00:31:38,445 --> 00:31:40,525
Speaker 7: me because I was leaving and there was a whole

682
00:31:40,525 --> 00:31:44,445
Speaker 7: group of girls walking in all holding flowers and they

683
00:31:44,485 --> 00:31:46,365
Speaker 7: were just going to go the desk after me and

684
00:31:46,445 --> 00:31:51,885
Speaker 7: give flowers to the police. Yeah, it's just so lovely

685
00:31:51,885 --> 00:31:54,205
Speaker 7: because it's like those are the kindness and cares that

686
00:31:54,245 --> 00:31:57,525
Speaker 7: you maybe don't see, and to see it in person

687
00:31:58,045 --> 00:31:58,325
Speaker 7: it was.

688
00:31:58,325 --> 00:32:01,085
Speaker 1: It was very special, brilliant, lovely. If there's anyone else

689
00:32:01,085 --> 00:32:03,285

Speaker 1: only imagine what the cause must be like. But also

701
00:32:38,885 --> 00:32:41,445
Speaker 1: I know want amazing service there be to people who

702
00:32:41,485 --> 00:32:44,685
Speaker 1: really really need help right now. So yesterday on the show,

703
00:32:45,005 --> 00:32:48,085
Speaker 1: I was just talking about old school radios, and whether

704
00:32:48,085 --> 00:32:50,445
Speaker 1: it was in a car or at home, and there

705
00:32:50,485 --> 00:32:54,325
Speaker 1: would actually be a physical dial. Now you think about radio,

706
00:32:54,845 --> 00:32:57,045
Speaker 1: it's just it's a digital one, isn't it. You're punching

707
00:32:57,125 --> 00:32:59,885
Speaker 1: the numbers. Now you've got your pre sets, and then

708
00:32:59,885 --> 00:33:02,245
Speaker 1: you've got people in management who sit in big offices

709
00:33:02,245 --> 00:33:04,965
Speaker 1: and they go, you got to get O'Connell. You've got

710
00:33:05,005 --> 00:33:07,085
Speaker 1: to get the P ones. You've got to get the

711
00:33:07,125 --> 00:33:09,085
Speaker 1: P two s to P ones. Why are you only

712
00:33:09,165 --> 00:33:11,165
Speaker 1: P three? Oh, you got to be P one in

713
00:33:11,205 --> 00:33:13,485
Speaker 1: this game, or Cindy's gonna wrench you out by easter.

714
00:33:14,285 --> 00:33:16,565
Speaker 1: My mission next one is P one. We go to

715
00:33:16,605 --> 00:33:18,645
Speaker 1: go P one pre set one? Oh?

716
00:33:18,725 --> 00:33:19,525
Speaker 2: Is that what that means?

717
00:33:21,365 --> 00:33:21,725
Speaker 1: Say it all?

718
00:33:22,045 --> 00:33:23,645
Speaker 2: I never really knew what ignore all of it. They

719
00:33:23,725 --> 00:33:25,725
Speaker 2: just make up this want us to be that the.

720
00:33:26,805 --> 00:33:29,685
Speaker 1: People, And I'm like, how do you does it mean anything? Oh?

721
00:33:29,725 --> 00:33:31,565
Speaker 1: I tell them what all matters? Are they listening? Are

722
00:33:31,565 --> 00:33:34,005
Speaker 1: they enjoying the show? I don't care what I'm P five.

723
00:33:34,485 --> 00:33:36,125
Speaker 1: In fact, I'm going to stop that in the new year.

724
00:33:36,245 --> 00:33:37,965
Speaker 1: I'm going to demand you, if you listen to the show,

725
00:33:38,085 --> 00:33:41,685
Speaker 1: make me P five P five. I feel more comfortable

726
00:33:41,685 --> 00:33:43,685
Speaker 1: as a P five sometimes you're gonna know, look in

727
00:33:43,725 --> 00:33:45,605
Speaker 1: the mirror and go you're P five. You got a

728
00:33:45,685 --> 00:33:47,205
Speaker 1: P one. Also, by the way, in.

729
00:33:47,205 --> 00:33:50,325
Speaker 2: This it's so squeaky, it's so he's.

730
00:33:50,285 --> 00:33:55,965
Speaker 1: Inching captive chairs from well, oh, I need to constell

731
00:33:55,965 --> 00:33:57,565
Speaker 1: me whereabouts in North Siffy Can I go and get

732
00:33:57,605 --> 00:34:00,085
Speaker 1: some w D forty? Why would a chair be this

733
00:34:00,085 --> 00:34:03,765
Speaker 1: squeaking in a radio studio where there must be silence? Again,

734
00:34:03,805 --> 00:34:07,965
Speaker 1: I think this is another spoiling technique from Jonesy, not Amanda.

735
00:34:08,005 --> 00:34:11,524
Speaker 1: I actually it's a Manda smiling assassin under the hook.

736
00:34:11,605 --> 00:34:11,805
Speaker 4: Yeah.

737
00:34:11,805 --> 00:34:13,765
Speaker 1: I always saw every day coming in here and put

738
00:34:13,765 --> 00:34:16,205
Speaker 1: like a you know, I'm crawling around chicken for traps.

739
00:34:16,925 --> 00:34:19,565
Speaker 1: What have they done today? You know this? This was

740
00:34:19,645 --> 00:34:22,325
Speaker 1: me yesterday. They're using it pass again in here overnight

741
00:34:22,365 --> 00:34:24,285
Speaker 1: and on you Tube. Jones So, yes, I was talking

742
00:34:24,325 --> 00:34:26,364
Speaker 1: about the old old school radio dials and you would

743
00:34:26,365 --> 00:34:30,685
Speaker 1: actually dial in, you'd have to actually actively tune into

744
00:34:30,885 --> 00:34:34,565
Speaker 1: the radio show. Kids these days have no idea about

745
00:34:34,565 --> 00:34:37,725
Speaker 1: that that that phone, the smartphone, is the remote control

746
00:34:37,765 --> 00:34:40,165
Speaker 1: of their life. It's all there, every movie that's ever

747
00:34:40,205 --> 00:34:42,964
Speaker 1: been made, every TV show that's ever been made, all

748
00:34:43,005 --> 00:34:46,325
Speaker 1: knowledge that's ever existed. It's all on their on their phones,

749
00:34:46,365 --> 00:34:48,285
Speaker 1: and so I want to do today John, the next

750
00:34:48,285 --> 00:34:51,005
Speaker 1: half and out. What would kids today have no idea about?

751
00:34:51,205 --> 00:34:55,285
Speaker 1: It drives me mad right now? No one is on time. Okay,

752
00:34:55,845 --> 00:34:57,845
Speaker 1: years ago, if you didn't arrive to meet your friends

753
00:34:57,885 --> 00:35:00,445
Speaker 1: at midday on the town hall steps, you didn't have

754
00:35:00,485 --> 00:35:03,605
Speaker 1: a day out with your mates doing shenanigans. You were

755
00:35:03,645 --> 00:35:06,085
Speaker 1: always there. There was no just message again, just around

756
00:35:06,125 --> 00:35:09,565
Speaker 1: the corner trying to part park into nightmare today five

757
00:35:09,605 --> 00:35:11,844
Speaker 1: minutes away, when we know no one's ever five minutes. No,

758
00:35:11,885 --> 00:35:14,725
Speaker 1: they're at least fifteen to twenty minutes away. Everyone's always

759
00:35:14,805 --> 00:35:17,364
Speaker 1: late these days. No one gets it because they don't

760
00:35:17,365 --> 00:35:18,045
Speaker 1: have to, but you do.

761
00:35:18,405 --> 00:35:19,605
Speaker 2: There's no stakes anymore.

762
00:35:19,685 --> 00:35:22,605
Speaker 1: No, no, no, you got there early to meet your friends.

763
00:35:22,885 --> 00:35:25,925
Speaker 1: Otherwise people must have thought little Tommy must be very

764
00:35:25,965 --> 00:35:27,685
Speaker 1: ill done if he's not here right now at midday.

765
00:35:27,965 --> 00:35:29,445
Speaker 2: Yeah, he got no, it just.

766
00:35:29,405 --> 00:35:32,125
Speaker 1: Got missed out and you never waited because you were.

767
00:35:32,325 --> 00:35:34,165
Speaker 1: Everyone knew what he's not coming.

768
00:35:34,565 --> 00:35:36,404
Speaker 2: He's one minute late. He must be gravely ill.

769
00:35:37,565 --> 00:35:39,765
Speaker 1: Real What would kids these days have no idea about?

770
00:35:39,885 --> 00:35:41,205
Speaker 2: Kids these days would never know that.

771
00:35:41,285 --> 00:35:44,325
Speaker 4: In the mid two thousands, ring tones were the most

772
00:35:44,325 --> 00:35:47,685
Speaker 4: important currency you even existed, and you had to spend

773
00:35:47,845 --> 00:35:52,285
Speaker 4: painstaking hours going on a website and manually typing in

774
00:35:52,725 --> 00:35:55,325
Speaker 4: ring tones into your phone so you could have say

775
00:35:55,605 --> 00:35:56,645
Speaker 4: the crazy.

776
00:35:56,205 --> 00:35:59,885
Speaker 2: Frog, give me the old ring ing ing.

00:36:22,165 --> 00:36:24,525
Speaker 1: loud and it was an unusual ringtone, and everyone was

788
00:36:24,565 --> 00:36:26,844

00:37:06,485 --> 00:37:09,125
Speaker 1: that goes down. I was in this ancient car. What

803

00:37:23,005 --> 00:37:25,045
Speaker 1: Right that crank in that hand or if you take

809
00:37:25,125 --> 00:37:27,885
Speaker 1: age as well. It was slick and quick and sometimes

810
00:37:27,925 --> 00:37:30,245
Speaker 1: just get stuck and you have to grab the window

811
00:37:30,245 --> 00:37:33,085
Speaker 1: and like push it down, yes, or pull it up,

812
00:37:33,365 --> 00:37:36,085
Speaker 1: pull it up as you were if you wound Patsy.

813
00:37:36,125 --> 00:37:36,525
Speaker 1: What's it for you?

814
00:37:36,645 --> 00:37:38,805
Speaker 5: Kids today would have no idea with the windows, remember

815
00:37:38,845 --> 00:37:43,364
Speaker 5: the little tiny the triangular one had one.

816
00:37:43,285 --> 00:37:44,565
Speaker 1: Of those see those anymore?

817
00:37:44,565 --> 00:37:46,445
Speaker 5: So you had like two openings. You didn't just have

818
00:37:46,485 --> 00:37:46,765
Speaker 5: the mat.

819
00:37:46,805 --> 00:37:49,365
Speaker 1: It was like a cellah just to the front.

820
00:37:50,085 --> 00:37:51,645
Speaker 5: For me, it was having to wait to use the

821
00:37:51,725 --> 00:37:53,005
Speaker 5: landline at home.

822
00:37:53,285 --> 00:37:55,245
Speaker 1: That created that creates so much tension.

823
00:37:55,405 --> 00:37:57,965
Speaker 5: Yes, and if you ever had to call STD, you

824
00:37:58,045 --> 00:37:58,765
Speaker 5: always had.

825
00:37:58,645 --> 00:38:03,165
Speaker 1: To do between It was for sexually transmit.

826
00:38:03,645 --> 00:38:07,685
Speaker 5: That if you had to call into state from Victoria,

827
00:38:08,045 --> 00:38:10,325
Speaker 5: you'd have to between seven and eight because you've got

828
00:38:10,325 --> 00:38:12,765
Speaker 5: like a half price call RAID at the time.

829
00:38:12,885 --> 00:38:15,805
Speaker 1: So would call it into state as a kid. I

830
00:38:16,285 --> 00:38:20,245
Speaker 1: my friend Mark in Adelaide. Now one back in your

831
00:38:20,285 --> 00:38:21,485
Speaker 1: day had interstate friends.

832
00:38:22,645 --> 00:38:24,765
Speaker 5: It was like for beellies and stuff like if we

833
00:38:24,765 --> 00:38:26,165
Speaker 5: had to call an art to thank her for a

834
00:38:26,205 --> 00:38:29,165
Speaker 5: birthday card that she'd sent with five bucks, you'd have

835
00:38:29,205 --> 00:38:31,805
Speaker 5: to do it between seven and eight before that because

836
00:38:31,845 --> 00:38:32,805
Speaker 5: it's more expensive.

837
00:38:32,965 --> 00:38:35,165
Speaker 1: And just also when we did start to get the

838
00:38:35,165 --> 00:38:38,245
Speaker 1: phrase home computer, nonsense that anymore. The phrase a heartways

839
00:38:38,365 --> 00:38:41,125
Speaker 1: they've got home computer and it would always sit somewhere

840
00:38:41,165 --> 00:38:45,765
Speaker 1: with a special desk a media unit for the home computer.

841
00:38:46,205 --> 00:38:49,085
Speaker 1: And that also created because if you were like chatting

842
00:38:49,125 --> 00:38:54,005
Speaker 1: on AOL and someone picked up the phone, I'm online

Speaker 1: plug the call into the correct line. It was a

1092
00:50:57,525 --> 00:51:01,005
Speaker 1: huge switchboard. Yeah, isn't that phrase, Oh you're gonna have

1150
00:53:46,565 --> 00:53:48,285
Speaker 1: or go and find a friend who had the world

00:54:14,005 --> 00:54:16,525
Speaker 1: by those kids. You're always destined for great things, But

Speaker 1: turn so many pages, and yes, periodicals and alously you

1167
