Speaker 2: Good morning, Pats, morning, Good morning Jack.
Speaker 3: Could see you guys.
Speaker 2: What a gift this weekend.
Speaker 4: The weather wall. I can't believe it's like autumn. I
Speaker 4: was speaking to my dad yesterday. He was going to
Speaker 4: must be bitterly cold out there. Now it's autom went.
Speaker 4: I was sat down the beach this afternoon watching sunset,
Speaker 4: have an ice cream. I really was. I said, this
Speaker 4: autumn at the moment is not too shabby, not at all.
Speaker 2: It was sister real the whole weekend.
Speaker 4: The sun was out and I think you appreciate it
Speaker 4: even more because it is autumn, and you know, mine
Speaker 4: need to get out there as much as possible and
Speaker 4: to get the solar energy into myself.
Speaker 3: It's going to last me through the hibernation.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I don't know what's coming this week or what's come,
Speaker 4: but it was just an extra bounce a gift this weekend.
Speaker 4: So yesterday my eldest daughter, she's in year twelve, so
Speaker 4: she's got a big legal sack. Today at four o'clock
Speaker 4: and I said, it got to about half four, and
Speaker 4: I said, why don't we go down to the beach
Speaker 4: and just go down the beach for a bit. I said,
Speaker 4: bring the revision notes she's gone, and so she took her.
Speaker 4: We took her revision down to the beach and I
Speaker 4: was quizzing her in a little bit, and then we
Speaker 4: watched the sunset, and then we went to get ice cream,
Speaker 4: and that two hours was just joyce.
Speaker 3: What a great way to do revision as well, rather
Speaker 3: than stuck in your room at a desk trying.
Speaker 4: We did argue after a while, I said, look at
Speaker 4: the sunsets here, do we still need to be doing
Speaker 4: the revision? You're not? You know exactly that Swen and
Speaker 4: William's daddy, King Richard Christian on in the head. Actually
Speaker 4: she got a little bit nerdy. They think we're in
Speaker 4: the club together, all like legal club. You know, it's
Speaker 4: ruin the vibe a bit on the constant. Dad tells
Speaker 4: me on this, Okay.
Speaker 3: Okay, most of this is common sense. I think, yeah, And.
Speaker 2: Then I did the if you don't know by now,
Speaker 2: you're not going to know it tomorrow.
Speaker 4: That is true. Short cham memory has extra capacity. I
Speaker 4: think you know enough.
Speaker 3: Let's get you know enough.
Speaker 4: You keep saying this is my last year at school,
Speaker 4: And went the most of it, I know, and ice
Speaker 4: cream and the sun, all of these things that are
Speaker 4: really important.
Speaker 2: Anyway, we went to the she still call them ice
Speaker 2: cream shop. What would you call it?
Speaker 4: Ice creamery?
Speaker 2: Ice creamery?
Speaker 4: Oh, let's grow to the creamery. We went to the
Speaker 4: ice creamery and they're constantly bringing out new flavors.
Speaker 3: What did you go for?
Speaker 4: I've never tried this before. I looked behind me to chat.
Speaker 4: There was no one who could hear me order such
Speaker 4: a thing. Luckily there was no one else there. I
Speaker 4: went for creanbrewlet.
Speaker 2: As right.
Speaker 3: So crembray as a dessert is the one that they
Speaker 3: fire up and it goes caramel wine and it's.
Speaker 2: Got that nice.
Speaker 4: Seal and you feel like you're waking up the goodness
Speaker 4: and it comes out going dig into mild workout to
Speaker 4: crack into it, you're breaking new ground into the.
Speaker 3: So does the ice cream version have all the little
Speaker 3: caramelized chips in there?
Speaker 2: That's why I was.
Speaker 4: I was hoping that I would somehow have to crack it.
Speaker 4: But of course the young lady who was serving me
Speaker 4: did that for me with that scoopy thing, just smashed
Speaker 4: it all up and then just by the time I
Speaker 4: got it in the in the cone. It was all
Speaker 4: pre broken for you to do, and then it was
Speaker 4: just a GOOPI script to be honest, there's nothing worse
Speaker 4: when you have high expectations in life.
Speaker 2: Second by in, I went, not enjoying this at all.
Speaker 2: Actually it's sick.
Speaker 3: Anytime we go to an ice cream marine, I always
Speaker 3: go for chocolate, Ben Bianker rolls her eyes because there's
Speaker 3: hundreds of flavors. Why don't you try something new. This
Speaker 3: has tim tam chunks in and this has something else,
Speaker 3: you know what. I know I'm going to like chocolate.
Speaker 4: So anyway, I go back in there. The lady goes
Speaker 4: everything all right, and I lied, I went, I dropped
Speaker 4: it on the floor. Then she went, I'll give you
Speaker 4: a free one. Then I felt really bad because there
Speaker 4: was no one in there, and I no, no, no,
Speaker 4: I insisted pretty much paid. I don't want to. Then
Speaker 4: go I'm lying, because she's like, you're going to ask, man,
Speaker 4: what is going on with you right now?
Speaker 3: I dropped it on the floor cleaning all myself, so
Speaker 3: it's nothing. You can't find it.
Speaker 4: Out on the pavement, No, no, round the corner. But
Speaker 4: he parks outside it says around the corner. I tripped
Speaker 4: and he kept rolling down the street and then the
Speaker 4: car drug over and it's all in his tire. So
Speaker 4: there's nothing out there. There's nothing out there to see.
Speaker 4: And then it went. I can have good old sorted
Speaker 4: caramel Chack.
Speaker 1: Delivered guys, The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 4: Batsy, Did you go to the Leonardo da Vinci exhibition
Speaker 4: at the Loom over the weekend?
Speaker 6: Yes, went to Loom on Saturday. If you have a chance,
Speaker 6: you have got to go. It's at the Melbourne Convention Center.
Speaker 6: It's just opened.
Speaker 4: Reviews here sprint. I am phenomenal.
Speaker 2: I'm curious to hear what you all made of it.
Speaker 6: So he loved it, loved it, loved it. We were
Speaker 6: there for like four hours. Oh wow, it was just incredible,
Speaker 6: and I think.
Speaker 4: We'll go back. You know, sometimes we spin on stuff
Speaker 4: on the show, but four hours at the da Vinci show,
Speaker 4: we were trapped in there something.
Speaker 6: It's so great. So you go in and you go, OK, yeah.
Speaker 2: I don't want any more. Da Vinca to.
Speaker 3: Do all his drafts and you can't just go straight
Speaker 3: to the mon.
Speaker 2: Some of the designs he threw away.
Speaker 6: He really wasn't overachiever that guy, wasn't he like that.
Speaker 2: Was called he was all take it easy.
Speaker 6: He was insane. I actually didn't realize how much stuff
Speaker 6: he invented and what a genius he really was. Like
Speaker 6: he was he would have been that kid at school
Speaker 6: that was good at everything, Like it was just in.
Speaker 2: He's a bit more than some hyperactive kid. You know, Renaissance.
Speaker 3: Polymers, top of math class.
Speaker 2: And great chest too.
Speaker 6: But you walk in and so the main sort of arena,
Speaker 6: they have the big screens like they do at Loom
Speaker 6: with all of his artworks projected, and it tells a story,
Speaker 6: and they play the most beautiful classical music and they
Speaker 6: have these massive, big beanbags and you just sort of
Speaker 6: lay on them.
Speaker 2: That's another thing.
Speaker 4: People don't want his hand than to bean back.
Speaker 3: When you're in there for four hours?
Speaker 4: Are those people needy a couple of hours?
Speaker 6: It was really funny though down one side last.
Speaker 2: Yet they just loving the shower, these bean bags.
Speaker 6: Down one side of the wall, there were all these dads.
Speaker 6: There was a couple snoring, but it had this overwhelming
Speaker 6: We left their feeling overwhelmingly relaxed, And I think it
Speaker 6: was a mix of what we were seeing and the
Speaker 6: music we were hearing. It was just a total immersive experience.
Speaker 2: You saw all of his famous artworks, of which the
Speaker 2: last supern.
Speaker 6: And it tells the story and obviously not the real
Speaker 6: mode Lisa, but tells you about given Australia were not
Speaker 6: trust to any that and some of his inventions or
Speaker 6: models of his inventions, things like you know, his his
Speaker 6: sort of plans for the first tank that they used
Speaker 6: in World War One. Elements of that went.
Speaker 4: Into shoes but I didn't know about the tank.
Speaker 3: So many some kind of flying contraption as well a lot.
Speaker 6: Of flying contraptions and like diving suits, the original diving suits,
Speaker 6: all these elements.
Speaker 2: How many years ago because of what was in fifteen hundreds.
Speaker 6: Yeah, fourteen fourteen, late fourteen hundreds into fifteen hundreds and
Speaker 6: just an absolute.
Speaker 4: Hundreds of years before any of those things actually manifested.
Speaker 4: He was dreaming them up. Yeah.
Speaker 6: And one thing that you will love, and there's a
Speaker 6: long queue, So my recommendation is if you go go
Speaker 6: there first, and that's to see the Codex Atlanticus, which
Speaker 6: is a collection of his original drawings for stuff like
Speaker 6: fixed wing what.
Speaker 2: Do you mean behind like protective case they've got the original.
Speaker 6: Yeah, the original sketches. Yeah, there's like eight or ten
Speaker 6: of them, and you're just standing there and you look
Speaker 6: and you know they're a bit stain on the.
Speaker 2: Paper, on the paper Pyras.
Speaker 6: Saw I'd say, so it's like really rough paper with ink.
Speaker 4: Obviously Chris obviously represent office work. He didn't design that,
Speaker 4: did he the amateur? And I think about these beanbacks.
Speaker 3: I can put that on three hundred gsm.
Speaker 6: But it's amazing because you're just standing there and you're thinking,
Speaker 6: my god, he's actually touched that paper and there.
Speaker 4: Was his own, his own sort of handwriting, and.
Speaker 6: There was a couple of stains and I'm thinking, what's
Speaker 6: he spilt on that? Then it's a bit of coffee.
Speaker 4: Too excited with the old flying machines?
Speaker 7: Leo?
Speaker 2: Is that Mead?
Speaker 4: He's still.
Speaker 6: It's a bit of white ink on that bit. But
Speaker 6: honestly it was great. We want to go back.
Speaker 4: It was so good to go.
Speaker 2: I've never been to loom.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it's brilliant. You've been having you.
Speaker 3: Jack No Bianker went to the Van Go one raved
Speaker 3: I've never been. I really want to go to this.
Speaker 6: It's a beautiful space. Totally immercible go if you can,
Speaker 6: all right.
Speaker 4: Thanks, Patsy.
Speaker 8: Christian Connell Show Podcast.
Speaker 2: Patsy, when you were at the Da Vinci, the Big.
Speaker 4: Show of the Loom, is it true that you used
Speaker 4: to write a lot in reverse?
Speaker 6: Actually, it's funny you say that because one of the
Speaker 6: pieces of paper in that Atlantic exhibition. We're looking at
Speaker 6: it and Chris is going, is that upside down? Took
Speaker 6: us about five minutes to realize that it was. In fact,
Speaker 6: it's kind of back the front the way around with it.
Speaker 4: I think you wrote a lot of reverse. I think
Speaker 4: he was worried about his plans being found, so he
Speaker 4: used to write in reverse.
Speaker 6: Yes, it took us a while to work it out.
Speaker 6: It's like they haven't actually hung that right. They need
Speaker 6: to come back and fix it.
Speaker 4: It's amazing that you saw a lot of its original diagrams,
Speaker 4: because I think the most expensive book ever sold is
Speaker 4: that Codex, Da Vinci's Codex. It's like Bill Gates brought
Speaker 4: it years ago for like, I don't know, I think
Speaker 4: it was like sixty million. So that he's saying because
Speaker 4: he said he was going to give it to museums
Speaker 4: so that everyone could see it.
Speaker 3: So it's on individual pages or right, So they ripped
Speaker 3: him out of the notebook.
Speaker 4: I think white gloves would have levitated them out of something.
Speaker 4: I don't think they would have just can't like, you know,
Speaker 4: a ruler and gone about this. Gates, get some clue
Speaker 4: to put that all back in a billion dollar book.
Speaker 2: You've got there five hundred years old.
Speaker 6: But it didn't look like they'd been bound. Maybe I
Speaker 6: don't know, maybe they were loose, but it was incredible.
Speaker 4: Jackie Boy, tell us about how you mum getting a moment.
Speaker 4: Jack's mum, this is incredible, right, she's she's in Japan.
Speaker 3: Yes, she retired last year, so she's making the most
Speaker 3: of her and her sister and her nephew are in
Speaker 3: Japan together, and they've set up this Instagram account because
Speaker 3: mom like for when she goes traveling, you get a
Speaker 3: dump of photos every day of what they're doing.
Speaker 4: Everything they say.
Speaker 6: I love that.
Speaker 4: I don't now that our parents are online and starting
Speaker 4: up to speed with it all. They realize it's a
Speaker 4: way of just overloading. Yes, so she even made us.
Speaker 4: It's like a gold rush to them, isn't it.
Speaker 3: She's made a separate new Instagram account that's high level
Speaker 3: that I mean, Hap's off for that called Ninchuwa Kids
Speaker 3: love It name. She'd be selling up for millions and
Speaker 3: news to come. She won't need that hubble money. Did
Speaker 3: you pay again or not? She's obviously realized that there's
Speaker 3: not there's going to be too much Japan content for
Speaker 3: her personal Instagram because.
Speaker 6: I've been following on Facebook and the photos are amazing well.
Speaker 3: Followed, but on kids because they've only got twenty one
Speaker 3: followers at the moment. So she I thought it was
Speaker 3: a great idea because then if we want to follow
Speaker 3: and see everything that she's seeing in Tokyo, we can
Speaker 3: choose to town. Yet I find that she's still spamming
Speaker 3: the WhatsApp group account for the family with every Tokyo
Speaker 3: photo that's going on to gninschu Wa Kids.
Speaker 4: To how many photos you get in a day for fine?
Speaker 3: No no, no, no, what forty to fifty? I'm going
Speaker 3: to scroll and see this is and so look look
Speaker 3: at this witch's hats on the ground, a statue of
Speaker 3: a giraffe, you mum on the train. It's like it's
Speaker 3: just endless Christian and it's you.
Speaker 2: She's mama beast. She's going to become bigger than mister beast.
Speaker 4: These aren't photos of mum in Japan, say where's your mud?
Speaker 3: It's like she's got a camera on her head and
Speaker 3: pointing one way.
Speaker 2: It's an unsoundfee stick.
Speaker 3: She's gone to some video game museum and it's just
Speaker 3: photo after photo of everything she's seen at the video
Speaker 3: game Mum. It's been like if you went to the
Speaker 3: loom yesterday and just no photos of you there, just
Speaker 3: took a photo of every single exit on every piece
Speaker 3: of artwork you saw, and then dumped it into the family.
Speaker 3: One tip where we used to communicate.
Speaker 4: So you be honest. I have you muted it yet?
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 4: Yes? Enough?
Speaker 8: Set well Christian no Connell's Show podcast.
Speaker 4: Every week on the show, we pick a year, We
Speaker 4: go back to a year, We talk about what was
Speaker 4: going on that year, and then I got a couple
Speaker 4: of big hits from that year, but only one second
Speaker 4: of those songs Chack and Pants take each other. On today,
Speaker 4: we go back to nineteen eighty six. Big Year, nineteen
Speaker 4: eighty six, Hainey's comet flew past the first time in
Speaker 4: seventy five years? Do you remember that? On the news?
Speaker 6: I remember that my brother and sister in law got
Speaker 6: married around that time. It was about April that we
Speaker 6: could see it, and I remember going out of the reception.
Speaker 6: We're all out on the balcony looking for and we
Speaker 6: saw it. It was very clear to see in the sky.
Speaker 4: That would have been incredible. Channe Obyl Nuclear power plant
Speaker 4: exploded in the well as it was then the USSR,
Speaker 4: the first ever Mexican wave was born at the nineteen
Speaker 4: eighty six World Cup, and Crocodile Dundee became the highest
Speaker 4: grossing Australian film of all time. Thirty eight years later,
Speaker 4: it still hasn't been top which is amazing. It's got
Speaker 4: a nice, nice there's an I remember going to see
Speaker 4: that the cinema. And this is in the eighties where
Speaker 4: Patsy you remember this. There was no guarantee you would
Speaker 4: ever get to see the movie because you could. There
Speaker 4: was no pre booking or anything like that. You would
Speaker 4: have to just go and queue up, que up, so
Speaker 4: often even if you I remember actually going on a
Speaker 4: date in nineteen eighty six with a girl to go
Speaker 4: and see Top Gun. We just didn't get in. We said,
Speaker 4: what you know, you said? We just wander around the
Speaker 4: streets kicking cans and stuff like that. I never saw
Speaker 4: it again. Actually, surely after that she told me she
Speaker 4: was moving away from the area she stood at school
Speaker 4: three afore. So tite takes a long time the pack guys, okay,
Speaker 4: but yeah, there was no pre booking.
Speaker 2: You were going queue up around the side of the cinema.
Speaker 2: Do you remember that?
Speaker 4: But I mean I do remember going to see Crocodile
Speaker 4: Dundee with my mates and it was just such a
Speaker 4: relentlessly funny movie.
Speaker 3: With all respect to Crocodile Dundee, I don't think it's
Speaker 3: still the highest growthing film ever.
Speaker 4: What it no Australian. Oh Strake look smarting, he's that
Speaker 4: smug laughing with old respect. You actually think the producer
Speaker 4: of the show, I thought it was bigger, right than
Speaker 4: Titanic Star Wars.
Speaker 2: The Jokers on you.
Speaker 4: My friend and I do one of my pain. Make
Speaker 4: sure we get the video of.
Speaker 2: That when someone goes with all jew respect.
Speaker 4: He was resting his pipe all drew respect learned by
Speaker 4: learning Connie. What a beautiful moment. Oh that and con
Speaker 4: Jack come to our city. It's Christmas Day for you.
Speaker 4: Also in nineteen eighty six. Uh, this is a very
Speaker 4: small movie you know barey made any money. Top Gun
Speaker 4: was out. I did get to see it and a
Speaker 4: movie that I still love. Watched it during the long
Speaker 4: time dark days of COVID with my daughters. They loved
Speaker 4: it too, stand By Me. As time went on, we
Speaker 4: saw less and less of Teddy and Earl, until eventually
Speaker 4: they became just two more faces in the halls. It happens.
Speaker 4: Sometimes friends come in and out of your life, like
Speaker 4: bus boys in a restaurant. If you've never seen stand
Speaker 4: By Me one of them, it's still a treat now,
Speaker 4: and it's got one of the greatest final few lines
Speaker 4: about the teenage years and those friendships that burned actually forever,
Speaker 4: even though you might not see each other in the world,
Speaker 4: and various things happen and you all drift off, but
Speaker 4: those friendships you form when you're a teenager are stay
Speaker 4: with you. There's the final scene where Richard Jafus, who
Speaker 4: is Gordy in the movie, has become the writer and
Speaker 4: you don't there are no words, but you read what
Speaker 4: he's writings. He's talking about his life story and growing
Speaker 4: up in that amazing summer. Although I hadn't seen him
Speaker 4: more than ten years, I know I'll miss him forever.
Speaker 4: I never had any friends later on like the ones
Speaker 4: I did when I was twelve. Jesus does anyone Isn't
Speaker 4: that amazing? I love that.
Speaker 1: This is the Christian o'connells Show podcast.
Speaker 4: This week on the Golden Year. Then we are going
Speaker 4: back to nineteen eighty six. I'll have some of the
Speaker 4: big hits from nineteen eighty six, but just one second
Speaker 4: clips for Jack and Pats to take each other on.
Speaker 4: You can play along as well. It's just saying too
Speaker 4: chack and a shoe, how nineteen eighty six. In the eighties,
Speaker 4: you used to have real varieties in the kind of
Speaker 4: movies that will come out every year. So we're just
Speaker 4: talking about how Crocodile under He came out in eighty six,
Speaker 4: Top Gun and Stand By Me. But there was also
Speaker 4: Ferri Spooler's Day Off, and then I would call just
Speaker 4: pure comedy movies, right, So for me it was it
Speaker 4: was a three Amigos. Three Amigos had Steve Martin, Chevy
Speaker 4: Chase and Martin Shorton and it was one of those
Speaker 4: unashamed comedies. Sometimes I get modern comedy movies, not all
Speaker 4: of them, like Daredevil is very right only all the
Speaker 4: way through, but somewhere.
Speaker 2: They're funny for a bit and then they need to.
Speaker 4: Have some message to it, to almost like they're apologizing
Speaker 4: for the jokes that they've done. Well, that's what's But
Speaker 4: even the Jackass movies, they're just funny all the way through.
Speaker 3: But when it's sad that you don't go to the
Speaker 3: cinemas to watch a comedy movie anymore.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Jim, remember I can't think of the last.
Speaker 3: One I went to.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Yeah, do you remember like all the like the
Speaker 4: Freddie Brothers movies with Jim carry Jimmy Jim Carrey went
Speaker 4: on a just a just a stream of like really
Speaker 4: relentlessly funny movies that you would actually go with your
Speaker 4: friends and everyone collectively would laugh their asses off. You
Speaker 4: come out, you'd feel amazing. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I was watching this video that explain that how studios
Speaker 3: are set up now. If you're not making a little
Speaker 3: independent film, you're making a huge blockbuster superhero movie essentially.
Speaker 3: So you've got these two. Either got a super huge
Speaker 3: budget movie or you've got a tiny budget movie. So
Speaker 3: there's not this stream of movies in between, like comedies
Speaker 3: or like just great films with great stories, like stand
Speaker 3: by me being made anymore.
Speaker 4: Yeah. I always think it's odd that there's no Best
Speaker 4: Comedy category in the Oscars, because I think it's actually
Speaker 4: harder to make a really, really laugh outload funny movie.
Speaker 4: Junks are very hard to write, so I think it's
Speaker 4: actually harder. The drum, all right, nineteen eighty six, the
Speaker 4: big hits? One second, game now, one second from all
Speaker 4: the big hits from nineteen eighty six?
Speaker 2: Check and Pats, you're taking each other on?

Speaker 3: wreck it for you, but I like got that as well.
Speaker 6: Well, there was nothing wrong with our plumbing.
Speaker 4: You were talking about your relationship the date night. I
Speaker 4: was so glad because the human is all right, because
Speaker 4: I know we had that Klonoscopedia of the week.
Speaker 6: Nothing wrong with the plumbing.
Speaker 3: Three Caitlin and I both got told that our houses
Speaker 3: we need to watch the plumbing. That can be issues
Speaker 3: in the house.
Speaker 6: Ours is fine, but we will buy a second house
Speaker 6: apparently green news.
Speaker 4: Yeah, any ideas where?
Speaker 6: No, no, but she thought maybe down Geelong Way, like
Speaker 6: a beach house. But I thought, well that's on the
Speaker 6: bucket list. But I don't know how close that is.
Speaker 6: But where she was really accurate that wasn't like you
Speaker 6: or Caitlyn. She tapped into deceased loved ones and it
Speaker 6: was phenomenal. So she said to me, I'm getting a pat.
Speaker 6: Is there a pat?
Speaker 4: Not you?
Speaker 6: You better pat? And I said, actually yes, that's Chris's
Speaker 6: father who's passed. And she was grabbing at her throat
Speaker 6: and she said, he can't breathe. There's something wrong with
Speaker 6: his breathing. And she said, he's telling me now to
Speaker 6: tell Chris that he can breathe really well. Now now
Speaker 6: Pat passed away of himphiseema.
Speaker 4: Oh my god, past is very accurate.
Speaker 6: And I kind of burst into tears because it's like,
Speaker 6: how would she know that? And then she said, and
Speaker 6: he wants you to tell Chris that he's so proud
Speaker 6: of him, but he never told him that.
Speaker 4: Oh that's heartbreaking.
Speaker 6: And Chris just he was so appreciative hearing of hearing that.
Speaker 6: She said, he never told him how proud he was
Speaker 6: and his and then she said, did his parents meet
Speaker 6: it a dance? And I said, well, yes, which was
Speaker 6: quite common sort of in the fifties. And she said,
Speaker 6: because they're dancing now. And then she blew me away
Speaker 6: because she said, Pee, who was Chris's mum? She said,
Speaker 6: what's PEG's bringing up the lockett? What is it about
Speaker 6: the lockett? And it took me a while to register,
Speaker 6: and I'm going locket and I've gone, oh my god,
Speaker 6: the locket. And only Chris and I knew about this.
Speaker 6: So when Peg passed away, she passed away far too young.
Speaker 6: She had cancer and Chris was nineteen, you know, losing
Speaker 6: your mum at nineteen, and we'd sort of only been
Speaker 6: going out about five months, and I kind of felt
Speaker 6: really helpless in that situation family that well. Anyway, I
Speaker 6: had a childhood lockett that was very sentimental to me,
Speaker 6: and I wanted him to have it that day of
Speaker 6: her funeral. I said, just put that in your pocket,
Speaker 6: and I wrote him a little note of how I
Speaker 6: was feeling and just in support of him, and I said,
Speaker 6: can you, sweet, can you hold my lockett. I'm giving
Speaker 6: you this because it's part of me to give you comfort.
Speaker 6: And no one, no one knew about that but Chris
Speaker 6: and I.
Speaker 4: And I've never heard you mention it past. We've had
Speaker 4: so many stories about you in the time with Chris,
Speaker 4: but not that it's a beautiful Only.
Speaker 6: Chris and I knew it. It was just like a
Speaker 6: thing between us. And she said, PEG's telling you thank
Speaker 6: you for doing that for him, and I thought, wow,
Speaker 6: no one would know that. And then she brought my
Speaker 6: mother's mother into the picture and she said she was
Speaker 6: on a farm. I said, yes, she was, and she
Speaker 6: said she's showing me planning seedlings and she said, this
Speaker 6: is you, and she said your harvest is about to come.
Speaker 6: You've laid all the groundwork and you've done all this hard.
Speaker 4: It's true about you. You do know that is true.
Speaker 4: You're ready for the next evolution of pats. The world
Speaker 4: needs you.
Speaker 6: She said, your harvest is about to come.
Speaker 4: What is this podcast that it is launching in June.
Speaker 6: We're just doing a bit of paperwork at the moment.
Speaker 2: Local council office podcasting license.
Speaker 4: I mean, some people should have a license for it,
Speaker 4: and some people shouldn't have it.
Speaker 6: She said, push on with that, because she.
Speaker 4: Said you.
Speaker 3: Got the eyes and crossed the t.
Speaker 6: She said, do you have a story to tell? And
Speaker 6: your story needs to be told? You do, and she
Speaker 6: said it'll be through a podcast and she said I
Speaker 6: can also see a book down.
Speaker 2: You've got so much to say.
Speaker 6: That's expres And then she tapped into an uncle that
Speaker 6: had passed away long before I was even born, Uncle Eric,
Speaker 6: And she said, who was it in their twenties or
Speaker 6: thirties in a motor vehicle accident. I said oh, and
Speaker 6: she said it's a long time ago.
Speaker 4: You.
Speaker 6: I don't think you're even born. And I went, oh,
Speaker 6: maybe my dad's brother. And she said he's wearing a
Speaker 6: cap and I said, eh, there's only maybe one photo
Speaker 6: of him. And she said, he's tipping his cap to
Speaker 6: you and telling you, reminding you that life is short
Speaker 6: and not to waste any moment anyway. After I'd spoken.
Speaker 4: To Reading, I got so much from that.
Speaker 6: She was incredible.
Speaker 4: You've got Peppin's trying today as well. Can you back
Speaker 4: up to yourself?
Speaker 6: It was reaffirming, it was real. It was like spiritual
Speaker 6: for me. So I rang mom and I said, hey, listen,
Speaker 6: uncle Eric, what can you tell me about Uncle Eric?
Speaker 6: Did he wear a cap? And she goes, yes, he did,
Speaker 6: and I went, wow, she was spot on. He was
Speaker 6: wearing a cap, he was tipping his cap to me.
Speaker 6: I thought she was fantastic.
Speaker 4: I'm so glad you got so much from it, Poty,
Speaker 4: that's great.

Speaker 3: kid because her swing is what we.
Speaker 4: Do with that?
Speaker 3: Oh I want to I want to be better than her,
Speaker 3: but I have to be patient at the moment. So
Speaker 3: not well yep, But yesterday we were on a team.
Speaker 3: So it's good to come together as a team and
Speaker 3: not be competitive with your teammate because we're working for
Speaker 3: the greatest.
Speaker 4: Does it work? Then? So who just are driving off?
Speaker 4: Do you take it in turns?
Speaker 3: We both you both play your own ball, and then

Speaker 9: So two weeks ago my girlfriend and I won a
Speaker 9: horse navigation ride.
Speaker 4: What is that then?
Speaker 9: So it's like a car rally, but it's on horseback,
Speaker 9: different horse power. So we had there was a set
Speaker 9: of clues and cryptic questions and so you go off
Speaker 9: in the circuit. You have to make sure you follow
Speaker 9: the right clues to get the right direction of course,
Speaker 9: and then you have to stop and get all the
Speaker 9: answers on the waist. You have to stop your horse,
Speaker 9: write the answers down, look around for the clues, and
Speaker 9: sometimes that's not easy. But it was so much fun.
Speaker 4: It's very intense. So you're cross country riding, yeah, and
Speaker 4: then doing like puzzles and quizzes.
Speaker 3: Yes, that's not like a car really at all. I
Speaker 3: don't remember them pulling over.
Speaker 2: To do they do?
Speaker 4: I say, all they do, but they have to go
Speaker 4: very very quickly. But they're not doing quizzes along the way,
Speaker 4: you know, unlocking the code and like panic rooms and stuff.
Speaker 4: This one's word, what you're doing is far harder.
Speaker 9: Well, it was challenging because you know, before we started,
Speaker 9: I have trouble with my left and right, so so
Speaker 9: I mastered that and then it was It was great fun.
Speaker 9: It was, and it's never too late now to know.
Speaker 4: Differ between left and right tough when it's an orientation
Speaker 4: sort of thing.
Speaker 2: How income, and we're missing the most important be here?
Speaker 2: You won?
Speaker 8: Yes, we won, yes, John?
Speaker 2: And how far ahead of the pack were you? Were
Speaker 2: you an arrow so or half an hour?
Speaker 9: Does it? Yes? It was timed. It was a timed ride,
Speaker 9: so there was an ultimate time and you got points
Speaker 9: so that we didn't get the ultimate time. We were slower,
Speaker 9: but we got more answers, right, so the combination of
Speaker 9: those two. So we only won by one point. It
Speaker 9: was quite close, but I didn't matter, that's right. It
Speaker 9: was still a wind.
Speaker 4: And how long does how long did it take?
Speaker 9: About two and a half hours?
Speaker 4: Yeah, this is what they needed at the Olympics. They
Speaker 4: got the cross crunch in the shooting.
Speaker 2: That's easy chucking a quiss. But now I do awesome, Debora,
Speaker 2: well done, a new big win.
Speaker 9: Thank you brighter.
Speaker 8: You're listening to the question you know Carl's Show podcast.
Speaker 2: It was done a new thing today.
Speaker 4: There and the eight ert of your school days and
Speaker 4: we're starting off with the letter A. So whatever the
Speaker 4: letter A reminds you of or stands a few to
Speaker 4: do with your school days, give us school this morning
Speaker 4: on nine four one four one I four three for
Speaker 4: me A is for alarm I. It was a big
Speaker 4: deal in the eighties when Cassio digital watches came out,
Speaker 4: groundbreaking digital watch.
Speaker 3: Is this the Calculator watch?
Speaker 10: No?
Speaker 4: I didn't have the Calculator one. My parents couldnt afford
Speaker 4: that one. That was too much of a step up.
Speaker 4: I just had. If you want to know, if Cassio
Speaker 4: fans will know, I'm betting quite a few used to
Speaker 4: have this one as well. It's the cheap o Cassio
Speaker 4: F ninety one. And in fact, when I saw Ray
Speaker 4: Romano's recent Netflix stand up special, he's wearing one. Oh wow,
Speaker 4: and he's like he can afford a road that's a
Speaker 4: cheap ass watch. I used to have still rocking at
Speaker 4: very well or Cassio F ninety one watch anyway, Mima mats.
Speaker 4: Everyone had one of these, right, they were the cool
Speaker 4: thing to have. This was like their brave new technology ground.
Speaker 4: The digital world is coming on our wrists. You can
Speaker 4: set an alarm that wasn't one of those old wind
Speaker 4: up ones with an actual crock on the bedside table
Speaker 4: with a hammer going in hitting two metallic boughs. So
Speaker 4: we thought it could I feel one day when there
Speaker 4: was a big head master's assembly to all set our
Speaker 4: alarms to start going off within a minute of each
Speaker 4: other in his first five minutes. Right, lawlds are plenty.
Speaker 4: So the head master was a very terrifying man, lost
Speaker 4: his shit and we all got into jim of the
Speaker 4: head Master's detention at lunch break you just have to
Speaker 4: sit there and utter silence for the hour. So we
Speaker 4: all got into from a muck around with our Cassio
Speaker 4: F ninety one watches. What's a for you?
Speaker 3: I'll choose the art smock.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 3: We had once a week we had art class and
Speaker 3: you would pull a smock out of the big tub
Speaker 3: so that we could do painting and get it all
Speaker 3: over your clothes. I didn't realize that when I left
Speaker 3: primary school that I would never wear an art smock again.
Speaker 3: You just get so used to wearing it that you
Speaker 3: think will be a part of your isn't it yes,
Speaker 3: pulling the art smock out. I honestly don't think I've
Speaker 3: worn a smock since primary school.
Speaker 4: The last to my war one was Chris Us when
Speaker 4: we did that pini and paint thing.
Speaker 3: You have to wear smock, see we When we did
Speaker 3: something like that, they gave us an apron, the small,
Speaker 3: a proper one, you know, with the arms and.
Speaker 4: The collar like a doctor's gown. Could you do me
Speaker 4: up these nurse? It was like that, Yes, that was small.
Speaker 4: It was good.
Speaker 2: PASSI what's a and your school?
Speaker 6: It's definitely assembly for me. Every Monday I went to
Speaker 6: a little bush Primary school. There was only like sixty
Speaker 6: kids there in grade six. I was the only grade
Speaker 6: six girl. There were two other boys that Oh my god,
Speaker 6: was small, very very small. But we'd have assembly every
Speaker 6: Monday morning, rain, hail or shine. There was no school hall.
Speaker 6: This was out like on the quadrangle. If it was raining,
Speaker 6: if it was snowing, blowing a gas against.
Speaker 4: As you've never said since childhood, what's a quadrangle? You
Speaker 4: don't have to someone an alien came down and be like.
Speaker 3: Basically a sla part of the school.
Speaker 6: Yeah, like your meeting point really And we used to
Speaker 6: have to sing two songs and we had to know
Speaker 6: all of the words right.
Speaker 4: From prep with all the songs.
Speaker 6: God Save the Queen was always and the teachers had
Speaker 6: this tiny old tape recorder with the tune on it.
Speaker 2: I'm stunning on to seeing God's send British school.
Speaker 6: Yeah, God Save the Queen every Monday morning, and then
Speaker 6: followed by the national anthemy.
Speaker 3: We did that national anthem and we had.
Speaker 6: To dan to attention and if we played up, I
Speaker 6: tell you what, there were big repercussions.
Speaker 4: But it was they used to run that assembly. So
Speaker 4: mister Bone was a deputy heads unfortunate change your name, mate,
Speaker 4: one up and don't go bone, especially teenage boys. And
Speaker 4: that that name is too much comedy there, it's low
Speaker 4: hanging fruit.
Speaker 3: You pair that with the cassio watches going off clownhouse.
Speaker 4: The deputy head master would come up first of all
Speaker 4: to make sure everyone was silent. When there was silence
Speaker 4: would walk off and the actual headmaster would come on.
Speaker 4: It was a masterclass end control. It was. And we
Speaker 4: actually also go into the assembly Patsy, did you have
Speaker 4: to march in set?
Speaker 6: Yes, we'd have to all gather in the primaries like
Speaker 6: in the classroom, and most.
Speaker 2: Of the teachers were stood on walls.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I think they used to do this in concentration and checking.
Speaker 4: No one was talking there, so you had this earing
Speaker 4: silence over the school for no reason.
Speaker 3: When you say march into assembly, were you actually we
Speaker 3: weren't actually marching.
Speaker 6: No, oh no we did. We had to go single file,
Speaker 6: no talking bush militias. It was very regimental when I
Speaker 6: think about it, check up on this.
Speaker 4: Doesn't sound and then one of those army schools.
Speaker 6: Maybe I should then the principal used to you had
Speaker 6: to be like about a meter apart from one another,
Speaker 6: so you couldn't like annoy the kid next to you,
Speaker 6: so he'd like step it out.
Speaker 4: Oh no, we were crammed in like silence because there
Speaker 4: was eight hundred of us.
Speaker 2: Oh wow. Oh it was a mega mega school. We
Speaker 2: were crammed in. It's like forty or so in a class.
Speaker 2: We were crammed in.
Speaker 1: This is The Christian o'connells Show, Podcast.
Speaker 4: Eight, in set of his school days, kicking off with
Speaker 4: the letter A. What does the letter A mean for
Speaker 4: you and your school days? Nine four one four one
Speaker 4: O four three Christian hearing you talking about assemblies, we
Speaker 4: used to have to have assembly in lines outside our
Speaker 4: classrooms and say the timetable as we all went in.
Speaker 4: So the teacher would say which time table would be
Speaker 4: doing that day, for example, the four times table. Then
Speaker 4: each child one by one would say the next one
Speaker 4: as they went in. So the first kid would say
Speaker 4: one times four is four, the second would say two
Speaker 4: times four is eight, the third one three times four
Speaker 4: is twelve. And then when that had been done, he
Speaker 4: went on to another times table. Tony that is intense,
Speaker 4: very intense.
Speaker 3: Would have handed the day with seven seven times table.
Speaker 4: It always ten ten good? Twelve is another tricky one
Speaker 4: seven and twelve twelve times twelve four. Yes, the relief
Speaker 4: again still there, still there at fifty one, run my
Speaker 4: jarmmy night. Please, All right, let's go to Kaylin here, producer, Kaitlin,
Speaker 4: what is the letter A in your skate your school days?
Speaker 6: Kaitlin, Ours was Apple because it was the most commonly
Speaker 6: thrown fruit in our school yard.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was our school chain link fence right.
Speaker 4: Definitely, which I think was meant to keep us in
Speaker 4: more than because we had a lot of security there
Speaker 4: and there's no one trying to break into this dive
Speaker 4: of a school.
Speaker 2: This is to stop us.
Speaker 4: But anyway, on the lunch break, we would just throw
Speaker 4: your apple. The only lunchbox right at that chain link fence.
Speaker 3: For us is the cricket nets. Same thing, the channelingk
Speaker 3: fence of the cricket nets. Piffing an apple so that
Speaker 3: you get caught in one of the diamonds.
Speaker 4: The sweet spot if you got in, which youdin'. That's
Speaker 4: a competition one day the golden apple cow, good.

Speaker 4: Always bang on that we were very lucky our school, Christian,
Speaker 4: because we had calculators, because he said all mass was
Speaker 4: done on abacus. When I asked him to have me
Speaker 4: with maths in primary school, he said he couldn't because
Speaker 4: he didn't have an abacus. So he used to use
Speaker 4: my mum's buttons from my sewing draw to make his
Speaker 4: own apocus and then he would help me. Wow, Christian,
Speaker 4: did you just say that twelve times twelve is one
Speaker 4: hundred and twenty four? Yeah, it's one hundred and forty four.
Speaker 4: Still don't know my times table at fifty one, Christian
Speaker 4: A for me and school days asphelt Oh my god, wow,
Speaker 4: that to me is shrapnel damage.
Speaker 2: It's embedded in my knee.
Speaker 4: You were constantly like going through trousers and your mom

Speaker 4: over in shorts on that ass felt.
Speaker 2: Now they get that rubber ice bounces, we didn't have that.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Yeah. We had to sit cross legged on the
Speaker 4: asphelt for weekly assembly. In winter and summer we building
Speaker 4: the river Kwai, so you either got burnt or freezing cold.
Speaker 2: Also our monkey bars.
Speaker 4: Same here was built over as felt, so if you
Speaker 4: came a cropper, you dived headfirst and that hard ass
Speaker 4: felt underneath.
Speaker 2: Fun times, fun times.
Speaker 4: Yeah. A for me also thinking about my school days
Speaker 4: was about you remember certain things you just get barred
Speaker 4: banned from your school. After a while, when run DMC
Speaker 4: became very big and Beastie boys as well, they all
Speaker 4: had Adidas Superstars, right, and so suddenly a couple of
Speaker 4: us would you like to weigh as to school? And

Speaker 4: bad you couldn't wear Adeda's Superstars. So A for Adeda
Speaker 4: sum Also for me, what's the letter A for you,
Speaker 4: Jackie Boyd.
Speaker 3: We had something called the Achievement Awards given out in
Speaker 3: from the whole school at the end of the year
Speaker 3: for every different class, and I accepted one in year
Speaker 3: seven for the English Award for a story I wrote
Speaker 3: about ants, which afterwards, I got questioned as to whether
Speaker 3: I had help from my parents because it's so good.
Speaker 4: Oh, nothing worse than that.
Speaker 3: It was a metaphor, the ants, the warring ant tribes
Speaker 3: was a metaphor for the US occupation of Iraq.
Speaker 4: There's no way you and it was my mom's idea.
Speaker 3: But I wrote the words.
Speaker 2: Get out, get out of it. Oh, Jill bos no way.
Speaker 4: So what happened? I know? I still I got the wall.
Speaker 3: I got the wall because I had to say that
Speaker 3: I did it myself. I can't say my mom did it.
Speaker 3: And I remember I wrote the.

Speaker 7: instead of lines like a lot of other teachers, you know,
Speaker 7: I'm must not talking class. I must not talk in class.
Speaker 7: He would give us an obscure Times table and it
Speaker 7: might be fifty one and three fifths timetable or the
Speaker 7: eighty six and a half time table, no calculators, and
Speaker 7: some kids would be able to whip through that and
Speaker 7: get it done in fifteen minutes, maybe twenty minutes, and
Speaker 7: other kids would take their whole hour. He'd let them
Speaker 7: out five minutes or ten minutes beforehand to go and
Speaker 7: get a sandwich and never go to the toilet before
Speaker 7: the class started again.
Speaker 4: This is so hard. I mean, I still struggle. Ten
Speaker 4: minutes ago. We're just twelve domes twelve during the song.
Speaker 4: We couldn't even work out eleven times. However, we're not
Speaker 4: even joking.
Speaker 7: And a half used the one who'd be one of
Speaker 7: his favorites. So it'd be, you know, eighty six and
Speaker 7: a half, and then to be one hundred and seventy three,
Speaker 7: and then to be two hundred and fifty nine and
Speaker 7: a half, and off you'd go.
Speaker 2: This is advanced Mathstone advanced man.
Speaker 3: Can you do those kind of calculations, Mike? If we
Speaker 3: gave you eighty six and a half time.
Speaker 7: Four, No, it'd be too difficult to do.
