Speaker 3: The Christian O'Connell show dot com dot au. Jackie Boy,
Speaker 3: you say you found some facts about tonight's rare eclipse
Speaker 3: blood moon.
Speaker 4: This is what we can expect when we see the
Speaker 4: blood moon tonight. If it is a gigantic blood boon
Speaker 4: looming over you, that denotes that you will have to
Speaker 4: confront something hit on that has been scaring you lately,
Speaker 4: whether a conversation with your boss, an exam you need
Speaker 4: to take, or some sort of confrontation you have been
Speaker 4: putting off. Does that resonate with all of us?
Speaker 3: There's everybody has stuff they're putting off. That's very general.
Speaker 4: This is how I feel about all astrology. So don't
Speaker 4: get me.
Speaker 3: Started on that this isn't this isn't this isn't just astrology,
Speaker 3: though it isn't eclipsed.
Speaker 4: No, but anytime I read Scorpio, who's my sign?
Speaker 3: Sting in the town, I always seek stung at the moment.
Speaker 4: This is so broad you could literally apply this to anybody.
Speaker 4: A blood moon with clouds surrounding it. If there's clouds
Speaker 4: around the blood moon, be clear.
Speaker 3: One tonight, if we have a beautiful day, saying.
Speaker 4: Today clouds donates that there's a problem from your past
Speaker 4: that will come back to haunt you, usually tied to
Speaker 4: an ex lover or friend. And then the scariest of all,
Speaker 4: two blood moons. Hey do you do two blood moons?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 4: If you? If you have a dream of two blood moons?
Speaker 3: Come on, where have you found this?
Speaker 4: Cosmopolitan dot com, Space dot com, to dream.
Speaker 3: Of base dot com? It sounds like.
Speaker 4: To dream of two blood moons in the night. Donates
Speaker 4: you will have a confrontation with your partner in the
Speaker 4: upcoming weeks again something you have both been putting off.
Speaker 4: So it's like the one before, but now both.
Speaker 3: So out of those three facts early one you said
Speaker 3: he has some great facts about the blood moon. One
Speaker 3: there was just if you have a dream about it,
Speaker 3: not about the actual moon tonight in the sky.
Speaker 4: But now we know what to expect.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought, we go great, We learned nothing.
Speaker 1: The Christian O'Connell Show Podcast.
Speaker 3: Of the Weekend. Tom our producer working very very hard.
Speaker 3: His girlfriend was coming back. She's been working at a
Speaker 3: hospital in Alice Springs. His girlfriend. We spoke about this
Speaker 3: couple of weeks ago. They've got rather these remote cameras
Speaker 3: so they can see what they're puppies up to. She
Speaker 3: can also see that Tom had been cuting the grass
Speaker 3: all the way from Alice Springs the Eye and the sky.
Speaker 3: This is technology being used against us, right, So he
Speaker 3: was obviously trying to get everything looking spick and span,
Speaker 3: you know, and clearing out the feral nature of like
Speaker 3: how he's probably been living like Saddam Hu's saying in
Speaker 3: that spider hole, being dragged out there by his girlfriend.
Speaker 3: Their bigger reunion Sunday Sucker takeaway. Yes, all taken out
Speaker 3: to the bins and he's done the lawn. Yes. So
Speaker 3: he was doing the lawns and he was doing the edges,
Speaker 3: and he said, a small little pebble really no bigger
Speaker 3: than the thumbnail as that describe to me, flew up
Speaker 3: top left hand corner of his car window crack smashed.
Speaker 4: It like a great ice hockey guy.
Speaker 3: I should just mentioned as well. By the way, you know,
Speaker 3: he's he loves that car he's got. He's right into
Speaker 3: his cars, and he's always like flexing a meeting. I
Speaker 3: was out yesterday. My Hondai gets all right. We haven't
Speaker 3: got a guess okay. And he even said to Perry,
Speaker 3: who looks after our socials, make sure you get the
Speaker 3: car badge in. I've got a very big I've got
Speaker 3: a very big sponsorship deal with the local Hyundai in Williamstown.
Speaker 3: This gets doesn't look that.
Speaker 4: Great twenty sixteen model.
Speaker 5: Guy.
Speaker 3: Yes, and I've been lucky enough three times. You've ever
Speaker 3: been in the guy, I haven't been in there yet.
Speaker 3: It's a joy. Honestly, it's like I don't know, it's
Speaker 3: like God's driving it. It is like you're floating on
Speaker 3: heaven when you're in a Hyundai get. He said to
Speaker 3: make sure I mentioned I've got to plug it three
Speaker 3: times by the way for that big deal. He's got
Speaker 3: a Perry made sure that logo and the gets is
Speaker 3: in any socials of the window being cracked anyway. So
Speaker 3: this morning we want to hear your stories of how
Speaker 3: you broke a window. You can break in it a
Speaker 3: window very easily. I mean when I was a teenager, okay,
Speaker 3: I chalked out on our back wall of our house
Speaker 3: a goal. Okay, and obviously by just to the left
Speaker 3: of the end of the goal was the kitchen window
Speaker 3: where my mom was doing the washing up. But I thought,
Speaker 3: you know, when I was starting just kicking my football
Speaker 3: inside this rough, roughly put together cartoon goal like road
Speaker 3: runner on a wall, I thought, my right foot is
Speaker 3: so dead. I like Beckham, there's no one I'm going
Speaker 3: to bear it completely wide off the end of this
Speaker 3: chalk goal into the kitchen window, into my mum washing up.
Speaker 4: Bold then, like that famous penalty that Beckham had in
Speaker 4: the World Cup, he will send it right over the
Speaker 4: hoss bar.
Speaker 3: It went. It was almost like fate or my mum
Speaker 3: had a magnet attached to her head. That ball just
Speaker 3: curved off, kept curving, curving, coming went past my chalk
Speaker 3: outlined straight into that window, shattered the window glass into
Speaker 3: my mum where she was doing the washing up. I
Speaker 3: remember being grounded. We should do one day about why
Speaker 3: did you get grounded? You remember it was like a
Speaker 3: big deal when you were grounded. That's it ground Who
Speaker 3: had told you? What were you thinking? You're not that
Speaker 3: good at football? So why they never played for England?
Speaker 3: It's why never played for England. I didn't have like
Speaker 3: King Richard looking after me. He know, had those girls
Speaker 3: out there with a chalk outline smashing that tennis ball.
Speaker 3: He wouldn't mind a look a couple of windows. Not
Speaker 3: my mom and dad, not Jennifer and Liam O'Connell, Jackie
Speaker 3: A how did you break a window?
Speaker 4: We got away with this one. My friend from across
Speaker 4: the road, we were playing tennis outside his family's house.
Speaker 4: He hit the ball through their family living room window.
Speaker 3: He made it. That's the worst window. I think kitchens
Speaker 3: were like lesser ones, but the main sort of that
Speaker 3: family revered family room, the living room.
Speaker 4: This made a perfect circle in the window. It actually
Speaker 4: was kind of a maze. He's in the hole that
Speaker 4: it left, didn't crack the glass anywhere.
Speaker 3: A perfect serf like a rare blood moon.
Speaker 4: So his parents ranged the police because they thought it
Speaker 4: was somebody trying to get him with a glass cutter. Movies, gosh,
Speaker 4: and the police and his parents were talking about it.
Speaker 4: They said, well, the guy must have cut the glass,
Speaker 4: then it's smashed on the inside of the living room
Speaker 4: and then he's got scared and run away.
Speaker 3: To this day they're scared easy. So this is go
Speaker 3: with diamond cutching materials. Got a little bit glass on
Speaker 3: my foot.
Speaker 4: Now it's too risky, but he got away with them.
Speaker 2: Patsy, my brothers were playing indoor cricket in we had
Speaker 2: in our kitchen massive big sliding doors to glass sliding doors,
Speaker 2: but Mum had been shopping. They used the cake of
Speaker 2: soap as the ball, and the class possibly exactly, and
Speaker 2: the glad wrap roll in you know, the thin box
Speaker 2: is the bash and it just went smash into a
Speaker 2: media pieces and I remember it costs mom and dad
Speaker 2: a lot of money to get fixed. I don't think
Speaker 2: they could get it on their insurance. But they did
Speaker 2: it again about two weeks later, when yeah, so it
Speaker 2: was barred. No cricket, no sport. Inside than you.
Speaker 4: It reminds me that we had a couple of times.
Speaker 4: We had a cardboard on the window for just months
Speaker 4: on air because it's like, well, you keep breaking it,
Speaker 4: so it's no point.
Speaker 1: Well Christian Connell's show podcast, Christian.
Speaker 3: My brothers used to break the windows so often that
Speaker 3: Dad ended up refusing to repair them for years. We
Speaker 3: always had like two or three windows boarded up until
Speaker 3: they left. Until they left home, then I can finally
Speaker 3: get my windows back, now, Christian. Mama had a slice
Speaker 3: off the tea at the Gulf once where the whole
Speaker 3: ran poallel to a road and it went through an
Speaker 3: oncoming car's window. The ball, Chris, that's like a trick shop. Now,
Speaker 3: I have sound effects. The producer's given us sound effects.
Speaker 3: That's the stories coming through about how you broke the window.
Speaker 3: It's more of a little what's like a cannon ball
Speaker 3: going through it?
Speaker 4: That's the gets.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you can tell us that crystal glass is like
Speaker 3: it to cancer? Isn't it wine? All right? Then that's
Speaker 3: that's some cools on air nine four one four one
Speaker 3: O four three Robin, how did you break the window?
Speaker 6: My brother and I were always getting trouble into trouble
Speaker 6: to playing on our fence getting splinters and Mom had
Speaker 6: laryngitis and was banging on the window and smashed it. Yeah,
Speaker 6: trying to get our attention to get off.
Speaker 7: Yeah.

Speaker 9: Yeah, I did not want to go half measures like
Speaker 9: a pebble from a moa or a golf ball. I
Speaker 9: was chopping wood out the back and yak whipped.
Speaker 7: Out of my hand and went through a window.
Speaker 9: So Mom and Dad Paul, but glazier. I went back
Speaker 9: to chopping wood. A piece of wood got stuck on yak,
Speaker 9: so as I flung that up, it flicked out of
Speaker 9: my It flicked off the end of the a and
Speaker 9: went through a different window.
Speaker 3: This is incredible. You'll hit right though. It's so consistent.
Speaker 9: Yeah, And so they called the gravy back. You hadn't
Speaker 9: yet arrived, and the gravy recommended even that was more

Speaker 4: He'll just honk out the front of a listener's house
Speaker 4: and you'll know.
Speaker 3: That it's time here. We know it's in the news.
Speaker 3: Him to be Square eleven minutes past seven Christian o'connells show,
Speaker 3: Gold one oh four point three. We have fantastic news.
Speaker 3: Yesterday on the show, we had Kim on Kim works
Speaker 3: for a charity mainly volunteers set up ten years ago,
Speaker 3: Mums supporting families in need this time last year Christmas,
Speaker 3: they put together themselves six hundred and fifty hampers to
Speaker 3: help six hundred and fifty families who are really struggling
Speaker 3: so much where they're worried about food over Christmas, which
Speaker 3: is heartbreaking when you think about what Christmas is to us.
Speaker 3: To be worrying about your basic meal that day, in
Speaker 3: the next couple of days and beyond, it is awful.
Speaker 3: You'd want to help out that family, you know. That's
Speaker 3: how how we help out each other's how we also
Speaker 3: can get help ourselves. So but unfortunate because this year
Speaker 3: is tough for people, there's a greater demand. So they've
Speaker 3: got enough for five hundred hampers, but they need another
Speaker 3: five hundred more, which is why Kim sent me an
Speaker 3: email last week. Kim is amazing. I spoke on the
Speaker 3: phone last week and she's one of these people who
Speaker 3: will do everything, and she does the sort of marketing
Speaker 3: and pr but she's like a Swiss army knife. She
Speaker 3: also with the other mums will go down to Woowards.
Speaker 3: They get the packets of pasta and they make up
Speaker 3: these hampers individually. It's incredible. But they're trying to make
Speaker 3: a difference, so they need you all help. So yesterday
Speaker 3: she was asking could we provide some of the hampers.
Speaker 3: And what we're trying to do is raise the money,
Speaker 3: which is about thirty two thousand dollars for the five
Speaker 3: hundred extra hampers. Jackie boy, what is it at the moment?
Speaker 3: What has been raised?
Speaker 4: So we've officially passed the halfway mark, Big pud seventeen
Speaker 4: one hundred and seventy dollars buying two hundred and sixty
Speaker 4: four new hampers.
Speaker 3: That's great. So that's two hundred and sixty four families
Speaker 3: who are going to be helped out this Christmas. Kim
Speaker 3: left this message yesterday towards the end of the day.
Speaker 12: Hi Christian, it's Kim here. Just wanted to give you
Speaker 12: a bit of feedback on what's been happening for us today.
Speaker 12: The messages that we've been receiving from people who heard
Speaker 12: this morning's interview.
Speaker 1: Who are just.
Speaker 12: Blown away by your involvement, and I can only express
Speaker 12: our gratitude to how much money has already been raised.
Speaker 12: I mean, you've done in eight hours, but it takes
Speaker 12: us weeks months sometimes to do to raise that sort
Speaker 12: of money and you've done it so generously and your
Speaker 12: listeners have been incredible. But the endgame is that these
Speaker 12: two hundred families at the thirteen thousand we've currently got,
Speaker 12: will now have something beautiful on Christmas morning that they
Speaker 12: wouldn't have expected. They don't expect anything, so it's incredibly
Speaker 12: wonderful to think that there's at least two hundred who
Speaker 12: now will have a Christmas. It's a little bit special
Speaker 12: for them. So thanks again, blown away. Just as I
Speaker 12: said to you this morning, people are inherently generous and
Speaker 12: you've proven that to be true.
Speaker 1: So thanks and talk soon.
Speaker 3: Well will Kim and I think that was I've just
Speaker 3: got the song on the backgrounds together and let let's
Speaker 3: start a new quiz. By the way, while we're doing this,

Speaker 4: Really No, I don't even want a present, but it's
Speaker 4: too late. What No, I don't need anything, but I
Speaker 4: do have a favor to ask for Thursday, bank, and
Speaker 4: I want to make an afternoon of it. Go into
Speaker 4: the city and it would be here we go. It
Speaker 4: would be great if.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, we understand what you want to do.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it'd be great if we could get a babysitter.
Speaker 2: Don't look at me when you say that.
Speaker 4: I'm looking at everybody on the team. I mean you
Speaker 4: guys will make.
Speaker 3: God know you like him. You can't be looking at
Speaker 3: everyone the team because this is a lovely team. But
Speaker 3: to babysit a baby, it's a very special guilt. It's
Speaker 3: very no.
Speaker 4: No, he's very easy, pretty much takes care of himself.
Speaker 3: You just have to give him a bottle, takes care
Speaker 3: of themselves.
Speaker 4: Change his nappy, give him a bottle, make sure he
Speaker 4: gets his afternoon nap. If we go into the evening,
Speaker 4: if things carry on and we have dinner in the city,
Speaker 4: will this is what, give him a bath and put
Speaker 4: him to bed.
Speaker 3: All right? Babysitting now is doing basically everything.
Speaker 4: Moving in Mum is out go do babysitter. But you
Speaker 4: can't do it this Thursday. Honestly, who on the team
Speaker 4: could put their hand up?
Speaker 3: Do you know what? Looking around the team, there's not
Speaker 3: I mean.
Speaker 4: They're all pretending to be busy taking calls.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they're looking the other way. Do you know what?
Speaker 3: The person who would do the best job is?
Speaker 4: Patsy thought so no you need no, no, no, you
Speaker 4: need and you need.
Speaker 2: To know I need experience or Jack DEDs experience.
Speaker 3: No, perhaps he's got experience. Babies, you know, like if
Speaker 3: they start to cough, you know how to deal with.
Speaker 2: I can't do the Hindlich remover. I don't think i'd
Speaker 2: be comfortable.
Speaker 3: You should be whacking a baby like that anyway. You
Speaker 3: don't do a heimlick and a baby he's drinking milk
Speaker 3: or find it crumble.
Speaker 2: I didn't think you'd trust him to come out west though, Jackets.
Speaker 3: Jack jacket is. Stick them on the train, Jack He
Speaker 3: could pretty much look after himself. It's eight months old.
Speaker 3: You stick them on a little trainer or a bus
Speaker 3: to go over the west gate and see Auntie Pats.
Speaker 4: It would be most helpful if you guys came to us.
Speaker 2: Well, how do I do school pick up? That's it
Speaker 2: gonna work for me?
Speaker 4: Sorry, so now you need a baby to anyone on
Speaker 4: the team would be good.
Speaker 2: Look real, it's very quiet.
Speaker 4: Actually before he said, you would love to this guy.
Speaker 3: Come on, you know this guy tears it up.
Speaker 4: He's settled down there.
Speaker 3: He's rubbish. He'd have friends over. Honestly, they'd be in
Speaker 3: the cot doing all kinds of shigans. He would smash
Speaker 3: that place up.
Speaker 1: The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 3: In Sydney Carl Sander Lance is a shock shop here
Speaker 3: in Victoria. What do we get? Neil Mitchell? Neil Watch
Speaker 3: is back. It's been too long. I feel like we've
Speaker 3: been chicking in on the great Neil Mitchell to see
Speaker 3: what is going on at the moment again, throwing shade
Speaker 3: on the rest of us work in the FM side
Speaker 3: of the dial.
Speaker 13: With this stellar bit of work one double three six
Speaker 13: nine three. Can you nominate the worst area around Victoria
Speaker 13: for roadside grass?
Speaker 3: We were here so much to learn. I don't see
Speaker 3: you guys getting pensan. We need ideas like this.
Speaker 4: You beat it was right there.
Speaker 3: Yes, we've all seen a bit of grass and thought, well,
Speaker 3: that's boring. I'll look at something more interesting in this
Speaker 3: beautiful state. Not Neil Mitchell though, no more, not even
Speaker 3: a half glass kind of empty kind of guy. It's
Speaker 3: worse than that. Let's carry on with this that he
Speaker 3: calls it was. This is a regular feature called grass.
Speaker 13: Watch, City of Port Phillip Graham Hollow.
Speaker 7: Long grass are the worst area in Victoria, in my opinion,
Speaker 7: is all the way from Geelong to Torque on the
Speaker 7: Surf Coast Highway. It is feet high once in a
Speaker 7: bluem and they'll cut it, but they never catch the grass.
Speaker 7: It's all over the place. They never edged the garters.
Speaker 7: And if you try to contact rough roads Victoria's I
Speaker 7: call them, all you get is a wall of silence.
Speaker 13: Well, absolutely I agree with that.
Speaker 3: Wall of cycles.
Speaker 4: Expecting to edge the gutters.
Speaker 3: More on grass Watch, I kneel.
Speaker 8: We back on to the morning Alic Creek.
Speaker 14: The grass at the back apparently is as high as
Speaker 14: probably underneath your arm pits.
Speaker 15: And when the dog goes for a walk, who's on
Speaker 15: the lead.
Speaker 8: I can hardly find him.
Speaker 14: We've had a couple of little snakes too in the backyard.

Speaker 3: around again. I've just seen Craig David is back touring again.
Speaker 3: It's like, Wow, we're having a second chance with Gray David.
Speaker 3: That is incredible. Jackie Bore, You've got an amazing store
Speaker 3: about summer tamity. Your are friends.
Speaker 4: He just bought a jet ski. He's going through like
Speaker 4: an early midlife crisis.
Speaker 3: You never too young midlife crisis.
Speaker 4: You know, he separated from his partner, and I think
Speaker 4: you've thought Jetski will cheer me up. He's gotten girlfriend.
Speaker 4: They went out on the jet ski on the weekend
Speaker 4: in Port Philip Bay. He's they got off in the
Speaker 4: middle of the bay and swimming around, then get back
Speaker 4: on the jet ski and he goes to put the
Speaker 4: key in and the bungee cord that's linked to his
Speaker 4: life jacket is nowhere to be seen. The key's not there.
Speaker 4: So in this moment, he's like, what what do I do? Like,
Speaker 4: he's in the jet ski five hundred meters from the shore.
Speaker 4: He just had to wait till the wind blew him
Speaker 4: back to shore. So they ended up down in Rosebud
Speaker 4: after an hour and terrifying. He had to get an
Speaker 4: uber back to his trailer, drive down and come. But
Speaker 4: I said to him, you're lucky that you even got anywhere.
Speaker 4: What if it just blew you out of the Tasmania
Speaker 4: or something. You're at the whim of the wind, the winds.
Speaker 3: And the currents. That's unbelievable. So we call these oh moments,
Speaker 3: you know, when life suddenly goes sideways. So is your
Speaker 3: u oh stories? Like Jack's mate on his jet ski
Speaker 3: when it's uh, oh, we haven't got the key for
Speaker 3: this jet ski and we're in the CEA in Australia.
Speaker 3: Nine four one four one O four three. If we
Speaker 3: get the right story, we pay. It needs to be
Speaker 3: the right story. If we get the right story and
Speaker 3: uh oh story when life went suddenly very sideways, we
Speaker 3: went unlocked, not just a demo model of this, I
Speaker 3: play the whole thing. I don't know that it's a threat.
Speaker 3: Actually I don't know it's a positive reward.
Speaker 1: Christian Connell Show Podcast.
Speaker 3: We're looking for your stories now of when life suddenly
Speaker 3: goes violently, dramatically suddenly sideways, your oh moments, or if
Speaker 3: we get the great story, the golden story about this, oh,
Speaker 3: play this in full? Is it reward? Is it punishment?
Speaker 3: You decide? Nine four one four one O four three?
Speaker 3: All right, so your stories. Let's go to Derby. Good morning, Debby,
Speaker 3: good morning, good morning Deb's okay, what's your oh story?
Speaker 5: So on a girl's trip in the Gold Coast, we
Speaker 5: tried to not buy a ticket to go to the
Speaker 5: observation deck, which I think is the seventieth floor at
Speaker 5: high point, I think it's called when in the list.
Speaker 5: As far as we could in the hotel, got to
Speaker 5: about the fifty fourth floor and jumped into the stairwell,
Speaker 5: sought we come. We've climbed about ten fly when we
Speaker 5: realized we couldn't actually get out of the doors in
Speaker 5: the staircase in the flier escape. So then we decided
Speaker 5: to start going back down again because we're about at
Speaker 5: the sixty something floor by then. I tried each door
Speaker 5: as we went, couldn't get out. It said a sign
Speaker 5: that says you can check every fourth floor to call
Speaker 5: the intercom. Tried the intercom's, couldn't get reception. Our phones
Speaker 5: no signal. So we just kept going south forgot about
Speaker 5: the thirtieth floor.
Speaker 3: When this is just what suddenly the girls trip. It's
Speaker 3: not much fun anymore.
Speaker 5: Oh so then I have a legendary friend who pulled
Speaker 5: the pin on the fire extinguisher and she manipulated that
Speaker 5: engine and did him a diver and broke us out
Speaker 5: of the broke.
Speaker 3: Out of that is awesome, What great skills.
Speaker 5: Oh No, good good friend to have around that is.
Speaker 3: That's that's some story, Debbie, what a great one to
Speaker 3: kick us off there. Thank you very much.
Speaker 5: She cool, Thank you have a great day.
Speaker 3: Thanks mate. Elisia. Yes hi, what's your oh story?
Speaker 15: I was in a taxi on the way to the
Speaker 15: airport in Saudi Arabia for my final flight home after
Speaker 15: a year of nursing. And I took a photograph of
Speaker 15: the entrance to the diplomatic quarter, which were the Liler
Speaker 15: three installment.
Speaker 3: The people taking photos of like military buildings, any kind
Speaker 3: of official buildings. That's a really big uh oh.
Speaker 15: And my taxi driver freaks and slowed down, and the
Speaker 15: police saw me, so we got pulled over. I got
Speaker 15: interrogated for a couple of hours in their police quarters.
Speaker 3: And you must have been seriously right, you must have
Speaker 3: been terrified.
Speaker 15: Kind of young. And but the thing I was most
Speaker 15: worried about was there as a slabber's beer under the
Speaker 15: taxi driver's seat to thank him for a service.
Speaker 1: This is the Christian o'commell show podcast.
Speaker 3: What's your oh moment? When life goes sideways, suddenly the
Speaker 3: game changes. There's a traumatic moment when.
Speaker 10: You just.
Speaker 3: Robin, good morning, good morning, Hey Robin. Have you going well?
Speaker 3: What is your O story?
Speaker 14: Well, we were out and my cousin and I and
Speaker 14: my auntie and uncle out in the middle of the
Speaker 14: bay were fishing, having a lovely day, and my uncle
Speaker 14: went to start the boat to come back in and nothing.
Speaker 14: We'd run out of petrols. So we've all looked around
Speaker 14: at each other like, oh, my uncle, being the captain
Speaker 14: of the ship, decided that my cousin and I, we
Speaker 14: were only fifteen at the time, we had to get
Speaker 14: into the back of the water. We were just swimming
Speaker 14: and pushing the boat. My auntie got in the water
Speaker 14: with a rope.
Speaker 3: Around her way and he's in the boat.
Speaker 14: Yes, and he had I don't know whether it was
Speaker 14: a stick for and or or where he got it from,
Speaker 14: but he's standing up there. I remember looking up at him,
Speaker 14: thinking we're going to get eaten by sharks and you're
Speaker 14: up there with a stick. We went under the west gate.
Speaker 3: I wonder which where that's going to go.
Speaker 4: With a stick? Or is that to make sure you
Speaker 4: guys jockey.
Speaker 3: Bush row?
Speaker 4: How far can you swim?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 14: Look, I don't know, but it was a fair way.
Speaker 14: We had to go under the west gate and then
Speaker 14: there's apparently floating ponte.
Speaker 15: So it was scary, terrifying.
Speaker 3: Those incredible stories we've had on the show.
Speaker 14: Robin, Yeah, it stuck with me forever.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll give you a beat of ticket. It's going
Speaker 3: to Villa Cinema's Gold Class Double Pass. Such a great story.
Speaker 14: That Robin, thanks so much.
Speaker 3: That's a great story. All right, let's go to David.
Speaker 3: Good morning, David, Good morning, Christian, how are you? I'm good?
Speaker 3: What is your oh story?
Speaker 16: Yes? And not too similar to the last story in
Speaker 16: a lot of ways. Beautiful Melbourne day, not just like today.
Speaker 16: Decided to take my son out for a fishing trip
Speaker 16: on the jet ski down at Wilson's Prom. So we
Speaker 16: head out to an island just off the from called
Speaker 16: Robert Island. I was aware it was an outgoing tide,
Speaker 16: so I thought I'll do the writing and leave the
Speaker 16: jet sko just in a little bit of water, so yeah,
Speaker 16: I reduced the chance of it getting beached, and completely
Speaker 16: misjudged how quickly the tide was going out and how
Speaker 16: much the water would drop and blow and behold, we
Speaker 16: ended up stuck on Rabbit Island off the coast of
Speaker 16: Wilson's Prom. Didn't have any supplies or anything with us.
Speaker 16: A little bit of water, that was about it.
Speaker 3: And knew yet those rabbits who some Yeah.
Speaker 16: Lots of rabbits. No fish unfortunately, but now look I
Speaker 16: knew they knew the weather was changing in the afternoon too,
Speaker 16: so we couldn't afford to wait for the next sight tide.
Speaker 16: So I felt like a real goose. But I had
Speaker 16: to call in a favor to the coast Guard, who
Speaker 16: were absolutely brilliant came out.
Speaker 3: I'm using my one time favorable photo frames the coast Guard.
Speaker 16: I owe them big time. But the other big drama
Speaker 16: the two was I don't know whether you were aware
Speaker 16: that Wilson's prom is as well known as a great
Speaker 16: white shark breeding ground. And when the Coastguard came out,
Speaker 16: their boat was too big to get too close to
Speaker 16: Rabbit Island, so I had to swim out to retrieve.
Speaker 3: The rope.
Speaker 4: In a great right shot.
Speaker 3: That version of the hef and the Playboy Mansion, they're
Speaker 3: all anyway.
Speaker 16: I live to tell the story. I got tied in
Speaker 16: and my son got together a ride on the Coastguard boat,
Speaker 16: and I got a bit of a sporty trip back
Speaker 16: to the weather. It changed a bit by then, so yeah,
Speaker 16: it was.
Speaker 3: It was fun times awesome, David, thank you very much
Speaker 3: to give us a call.
Speaker 16: Mote jeers, take care all right.
Speaker 3: Let's squeeze, say we've got here. Simon Simon, Hello, how
Speaker 3: are you. I'm good, Simon, and what's your oh story?
Speaker 17: Well, I'm a volunteer firefighter with the on the Fire Brigade.
Speaker 17: We we were fighting the fires at Byard four years
Speaker 17: ago and we were in a paddock that suddenly ignited
Speaker 17: all around us and we ran out of water.
Speaker 3: That is more than oh moment. What did you Well?
Speaker 17: I looked at I looked at my crew leader, he
Speaker 17: looked at me. We both went and we I think
Speaker 17: I'd say.
Speaker 3: A lot more than Number one thing you need when
Speaker 3: you fight them fires is water that hoses goes and air.
Speaker 3: No more water, we did.
Speaker 17: Say a lot more, but I have to keep it clean.
Speaker 17: So we managed to find a way out of the
Speaker 17: paddock and we had to jump off the truck and
Speaker 17: use hand tools to stop the fire reaching.
Speaker 3: A house, like spades and shovels.
Speaker 17: Spade shovels, brooms, whatever we could to beat out the fire.
Speaker 3: This is incredible, I mean, your selfless heroism is incredible.
Speaker 17: But this goes back to keeping the grass low.
Speaker 3: See, this is why Neil Mitchell is doing the phone.
Speaker 3: Isn't it to come back to us? Now we're the
Speaker 3: fools to keep the grass.
Speaker 4: Spanners and hammers, beat the Fial, keep those photos coming.
Speaker 1: In the Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 3: Once more, you guys have stepped up and helped so generously.
Speaker 3: Yesterday morning we had Kim on. Kim is part of
Speaker 3: an amazing charity mainly volunteers. She emailed me a week
Speaker 3: ago a week ago telling me about them. They are
Speaker 3: mums supporting families in need and they needed our help.
Speaker 3: She They've got five hundred hampers together through their own
Speaker 3: means to go to families who are really going to
Speaker 3: be struggling this year, struggling so bad that we're talking
Speaker 3: about basically feeding themselves. So five hundred hampers means five
Speaker 3: hundred families, but they need at least a thousand hampers
Speaker 3: this year because there's such big extra demand, so that
Speaker 3: they needed extra money. So each hamper they put them
Speaker 3: together literally go down to Walworths by the past to
Speaker 3: the Flower Life Meal. They make up these hampers themselves
Speaker 3: and they give them away and so each hamper costs
Speaker 3: them sixty five dollars. So we were trying to see
Speaker 3: if we could raise together the thirty two thousand dollars
Speaker 3: to try and get them the ex of five hundred hampers.
Speaker 3: Act Jackie boy, what are the latest? So this started
Speaker 3: yesterday morning at eight o'clock. In twenty four hours, one
Speaker 3: of our big hearted listeners race.
Speaker 4: Twenty one eight hundred and twenty dollars, which is three
Speaker 4: hundred and thirty six hampers.
Speaker 3: That's three hundred and thirty six families. So are going
Speaker 3: to have a just a slightly better Christmas this year.
Speaker 3: So please keep this going. Head to the Christian o'connells
