WEBVTT - MINI:Beer Race

0:00:00.640 --> 0:00:04.760
<v Speaker 1>The Christian O'Connell Show Podcast II. The Strangest Dream last night.

0:00:04.960 --> 0:00:06.480
<v Speaker 1>I swear to god this was the dream, the only

0:00:06.559 --> 0:00:09.559
<v Speaker 1>dreamer I remember. I was wearing crocs and my feet

0:00:09.600 --> 0:00:13.239
<v Speaker 1>were talking to me, thanking me for wearing crocs. And

0:00:13.280 --> 0:00:16.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, I've stood strong as a no crop person.

0:00:16.400 --> 0:00:18.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what I should do?

0:00:18.160 --> 0:00:21.360
<v Speaker 2>Do I now that could be clearer? Are you any

0:00:21.360 --> 0:00:22.799
<v Speaker 2>message dream?

0:00:22.920 --> 0:00:24.599
<v Speaker 1>Whether to say anything on the show? So I thought

0:00:24.680 --> 0:00:27.320
<v Speaker 1>Jack's going to love this. Even after the show yesterday,

0:00:27.360 --> 0:00:30.360
<v Speaker 1>we were talking about flipping crocs because I think Sue

0:00:30.400 --> 0:00:32.360
<v Speaker 1>the Boss came in, didn't She started talking about CROs.

0:00:32.360 --> 0:00:35.240
<v Speaker 2>She's got crocs. She's in a difficult stage with every croc.

0:00:35.280 --> 0:00:36.800
<v Speaker 2>I know where it at. First you say I'm only

0:00:36.800 --> 0:00:38.479
<v Speaker 2>going to wear them around the house, and then you

0:00:38.479 --> 0:00:41.080
<v Speaker 2>want to wear them outside. I said, you eventually wear

0:00:41.080 --> 0:00:42.720
<v Speaker 2>them outside, so I may as well rip the bandad

0:00:42.760 --> 0:00:43.640
<v Speaker 2>off and get out there.

0:00:43.720 --> 0:00:47.160
<v Speaker 3>And now suddenly it's seeping into my dreams. My feet

0:00:47.200 --> 0:00:49.680
<v Speaker 3>were so happy they were like singing to me. And

0:00:49.720 --> 0:00:52.160
<v Speaker 3>the dream ended. I was like, what does this mean?

0:00:52.479 --> 0:00:54.600
<v Speaker 3>Does this mean I now need to go and try crocs?

0:00:55.120 --> 0:00:55.320
<v Speaker 1>Yes?

0:00:55.920 --> 0:00:58.520
<v Speaker 4>Feet, yes, but there's a time and place, I'll allow

0:00:58.560 --> 0:00:59.800
<v Speaker 4>you to have crocs, but not.

0:01:01.000 --> 0:01:03.160
<v Speaker 1>The Debrett's Guide to Etiquet, don't they It's been around

0:01:03.160 --> 0:01:05.120
<v Speaker 1>for like two hundred years. So what do you think

0:01:05.120 --> 0:01:07.160
<v Speaker 1>of the rules for kroc wearing?

0:01:07.280 --> 0:01:08.279
<v Speaker 2>Not outside the house?

0:01:08.760 --> 0:01:10.560
<v Speaker 3>The trouble is, I think here's what Jack's right.

0:01:10.640 --> 0:01:13.600
<v Speaker 1>What happens is once you get used to that inside comfort,

0:01:13.680 --> 0:01:15.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean inside the house, why wouldn't you want to

0:01:15.800 --> 0:01:17.759
<v Speaker 1>be that comfortable twenty four to seven.

0:01:17.760 --> 0:01:20.120
<v Speaker 2>It will happen gradually. First take the bins out and

0:01:20.400 --> 0:01:22.120
<v Speaker 2>now you're a little bit away from the front door.

0:01:22.240 --> 0:01:24.400
<v Speaker 2>Then you'll go I'll just go knock on my neighbor's

0:01:24.400 --> 0:01:25.639
<v Speaker 2>door for a cup of sugar.

0:01:25.720 --> 0:01:25.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:01:25.959 --> 0:01:27.399
<v Speaker 2>Then all of a sudden you are at on the street.

0:01:27.480 --> 0:01:28.360
<v Speaker 2>I just go into a chemist.

0:01:28.440 --> 0:01:29.880
<v Speaker 1>That rash has come back up.

0:01:29.920 --> 0:01:31.919
<v Speaker 2>But where does it end? Then you'll be wearing trucky

0:01:32.000 --> 0:01:32.960
<v Speaker 2>decks everywhere you go.

0:01:33.080 --> 0:01:35.280
<v Speaker 1>That would never happen to me. Well, your best and

0:01:35.280 --> 0:01:38.319
<v Speaker 1>format an English gentlemen in Australia, but I am an

0:01:38.360 --> 0:01:39.720
<v Speaker 1>Englishman in New York.

0:01:40.480 --> 0:01:42.720
<v Speaker 2>You said you wouldn't wear crocs too. It's like it's

0:01:42.760 --> 0:01:43.800
<v Speaker 2>like a gateway drum.

0:01:43.840 --> 0:01:47.120
<v Speaker 1>Now, Australia, what's happening to me.

0:01:47.400 --> 0:01:49.320
<v Speaker 2>Bring them in here, because what is the studio but

0:01:49.400 --> 0:01:52.080
<v Speaker 2>a second home. It's a croc for our souls.

0:01:52.680 --> 0:01:54.560
<v Speaker 1>Anyway, what I meant to do was get into this

0:01:55.320 --> 0:02:01.320
<v Speaker 1>Christian O'Connell's ten thousand dollars beer run in weird all right.

0:02:01.360 --> 0:02:03.920
<v Speaker 1>So next Thursday on the show, eight of you taking

0:02:03.920 --> 0:02:07.200
<v Speaker 1>each other on, racing down Chapel Street and of course

0:02:07.280 --> 0:02:12.040
<v Speaker 1>Chapel Street precinct, Chapel Street, where do I begin? Just

0:02:12.080 --> 0:02:17.800
<v Speaker 1>cover things culture, fashion, late nights. It's iconic, it's a vibe.

0:02:18.280 --> 0:02:22.680
<v Speaker 1>Let's go. Ten thousand dollars in cash up for grabs

0:02:22.680 --> 0:02:25.160
<v Speaker 1>to the winner. So we're looking for eight of you.

0:02:25.280 --> 0:02:30.919
<v Speaker 1>We've recruited quite a few already. Meet the contestants so far. Hi,

0:02:31.040 --> 0:02:32.639
<v Speaker 1>it's a humous with Zimon if here.

0:02:32.800 --> 0:02:35.320
<v Speaker 2>I can't go easy one b a twoba three beer,

0:02:35.400 --> 0:02:37.440
<v Speaker 2>even a kick couch, no bomb at all.

0:02:37.760 --> 0:02:41.680
<v Speaker 3>On Champagne Grandma here, I'm gonna swoop in and steal

0:02:41.720 --> 0:02:43.200
<v Speaker 3>the winds to celebrate.

0:02:43.280 --> 0:02:46.280
<v Speaker 2>I'll have a lovely glass of champagne Country John Aya.

0:02:46.440 --> 0:02:48.760
<v Speaker 2>There's a warning for you young people in this race.

0:02:48.919 --> 0:02:51.480
<v Speaker 2>When the big fella gets on the pavement, you'll be

0:02:51.600 --> 0:02:52.120
<v Speaker 2>chasing me.

0:02:52.280 --> 0:02:52.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm telling you.

0:02:52.960 --> 0:02:55.519
<v Speaker 4>Now a high and nat here and I've never ever

0:02:55.600 --> 0:02:59.080
<v Speaker 4>still to drop even while thirty two thousand feet.

0:02:58.840 --> 0:03:01.640
<v Speaker 1>In the air, and I'm going to smash this ray.

0:03:01.800 --> 0:03:04.440
<v Speaker 4>Screw you Jimmy here, I don't care about the tag

0:03:04.520 --> 0:03:06.880
<v Speaker 4>k I'm just here to win, to prove a point.

0:03:07.200 --> 0:03:10.560
<v Speaker 2>As for my pride, Screw you, Jimmy, I can.

0:03:10.440 --> 0:03:13.000
<v Speaker 1>Win, reliable, Chrissy, Oh, my mates depend on me not

0:03:13.080 --> 0:03:13.560
<v Speaker 1>to steal.

0:03:13.400 --> 0:03:14.120
<v Speaker 2>A single drop.

0:03:14.240 --> 0:03:16.000
<v Speaker 4>And Christian, you can count on me to take out

0:03:16.000 --> 0:03:17.160
<v Speaker 4>the win next Thursday.

0:03:18.760 --> 0:03:21.639
<v Speaker 1>A lot of big talk, but come next Thursday, it's

0:03:21.639 --> 0:03:25.799
<v Speaker 1>time for the big race. Harry aka screw you Jimmy.

0:03:25.960 --> 0:03:28.840
<v Speaker 1>Had he been drinking when it felt like that guy

0:03:28.960 --> 0:03:31.119
<v Speaker 1>the part where you go down. He's friendly, but he's aggressive.

0:03:31.120 --> 0:03:37.040
<v Speaker 1>He's friendly aggressive. Ah, he's over me, Christian. Now, I

0:03:37.080 --> 0:03:39.640
<v Speaker 1>have an email here before we go any further. It

0:03:39.800 --> 0:03:44.520
<v Speaker 1>comes from Steve. Steve is someone like Jackpost. Jack Post,

0:03:44.680 --> 0:03:47.320
<v Speaker 1>like said, hear what's going on, and sometimes that mega

0:03:47.360 --> 0:03:50.080
<v Speaker 1>brain of his goes It looks for gaps, it looks

0:03:50.080 --> 0:03:52.960
<v Speaker 1>for regularity. So actually we don't need to worry about

0:03:52.960 --> 0:03:55.280
<v Speaker 1>stuff like that. Sometimes there's a yin and yang with

0:03:55.360 --> 0:03:57.560
<v Speaker 1>Jack and I and it doesn't quite dove tell together

0:03:58.240 --> 0:04:03.440
<v Speaker 1>the words of Steve feel like you used to. Okay, Christian,

0:04:03.920 --> 0:04:06.000
<v Speaker 1>I can't sit this one out. Regarding the ten k

0:04:06.240 --> 0:04:08.880
<v Speaker 1>beer race, I've been having a debate with myself about

0:04:08.880 --> 0:04:10.520
<v Speaker 1>how are you going to pick the winner? Now? A

0:04:10.600 --> 0:04:14.800
<v Speaker 1>fast time is obviously critical, but surely equally important, nay

0:04:15.000 --> 0:04:18.120
<v Speaker 1>even more important, is the amount of beer spilled. For example,

0:04:18.480 --> 0:04:21.479
<v Speaker 1>the first person across the finish line will not necessarily

0:04:21.520 --> 0:04:25.440
<v Speaker 1>be declared the winner immediately if they have significant beer loss.

0:04:25.760 --> 0:04:30.839
<v Speaker 1>They could be sacrificeing accuracy over speed or and this

0:04:30.920 --> 0:04:32.960
<v Speaker 1>hasn't been made clear yet, maybe you will next week.

0:04:33.480 --> 0:04:35.799
<v Speaker 1>Is it more important to take a longer, more powerful

0:04:35.839 --> 0:04:39.800
<v Speaker 1>approach to minimalized spinach. Perhaps there's a formula that you've

0:04:39.800 --> 0:04:42.960
<v Speaker 1>already calculated but haven't spoken out loud. You can take

0:04:43.000 --> 0:04:43.800
<v Speaker 1>a guess which it is.

0:04:44.080 --> 0:04:48.520
<v Speaker 2>Perhaps still working on the calculation.

0:04:48.160 --> 0:04:50.400
<v Speaker 1>Working of the twenty six season rarely on that formula.

0:04:50.560 --> 0:04:53.360
<v Speaker 1>Perhaps there is a formula that will determine the victor,

0:04:53.880 --> 0:04:58.799
<v Speaker 1>something along lines of minutes taken multiplied by minimeters remaining

0:04:58.960 --> 0:04:59.839
<v Speaker 1>slash lost.

0:05:00.279 --> 0:05:02.600
<v Speaker 2>Well, that will be an exciting end to the races.

0:05:02.680 --> 0:05:09.440
<v Speaker 1>We now information into the complications Christian, are you able

0:05:09.440 --> 0:05:11.279
<v Speaker 1>to clarify this for me?

0:05:11.560 --> 0:05:12.960
<v Speaker 2>So he's absolutely shack.

0:05:13.040 --> 0:05:14.400
<v Speaker 1>What do you think, because this is the stuff that

0:05:14.440 --> 0:05:15.480
<v Speaker 1>occupies your brain.

0:05:15.520 --> 0:05:17.960
<v Speaker 2>We have the way we're pitching at the moment, there's

0:05:18.000 --> 0:05:21.400
<v Speaker 2>two variables, speed and spillage. You're saying, whoever goes the

0:05:21.480 --> 0:05:24.120
<v Speaker 2>fastest but spills the least amount of beer? And now

0:05:24.160 --> 0:05:25.960
<v Speaker 2>we don't know which one is more important than that.

0:05:26.080 --> 0:05:30.520
<v Speaker 1>How do we measure both to get a joint voltron?

0:05:30.760 --> 0:05:33.240
<v Speaker 2>I think what we have to do is choose an

0:05:33.279 --> 0:05:35.120
<v Speaker 2>amount of beer that you have to have in the

0:05:35.120 --> 0:05:37.080
<v Speaker 2>glass at the end of the race, so say it's

0:05:37.120 --> 0:05:40.960
<v Speaker 2>three quarters a minimum. We put a line around every glass.

0:05:41.160 --> 0:05:44.800
<v Speaker 2>If you're under that, disqualified. If you're over that, you're thrown.

0:05:44.800 --> 0:05:46.440
<v Speaker 2>And where are you measuring that line?

0:05:46.440 --> 0:05:48.800
<v Speaker 1>From the bottom bit of the line or the top

0:05:48.839 --> 0:05:53.080
<v Speaker 1>Because there's a meniscus with liquid. There is only thing

0:05:53.200 --> 0:05:55.600
<v Speaker 1>I remember from chemistry or physics.

0:05:56.640 --> 0:05:57.320
<v Speaker 2>I think.

0:05:58.800 --> 0:06:02.559
<v Speaker 1>The fact that I don't even know real physics, Steve,

0:06:02.640 --> 0:06:04.440
<v Speaker 1>you're looking for that formula. This is how you're dealing

0:06:04.480 --> 0:06:06.120
<v Speaker 1>with the mad scientists.

0:06:06.640 --> 0:06:10.120
<v Speaker 2>I think we would the miniscus if I'm right. So

0:06:10.640 --> 0:06:12.440
<v Speaker 2>what the liquid that's touching the side of the glass

0:06:12.480 --> 0:06:13.040
<v Speaker 2>might not be as.

0:06:13.040 --> 0:06:15.760
<v Speaker 1>High, and there is killing real here he holds not

0:06:15.880 --> 0:06:18.159
<v Speaker 1>one but two degrees. Well, here's a couple of thickies

0:06:18.800 --> 0:06:20.520
<v Speaker 1>fumble around logic.

0:06:21.040 --> 0:06:23.280
<v Speaker 2>No, I think you're right. What do you think here?

0:06:23.400 --> 0:06:27.320
<v Speaker 1>I think it has to be the lower points, the highest, the.

0:06:27.360 --> 0:06:30.400
<v Speaker 2>Higher point of the water, the tip of the miniscus.

0:06:30.640 --> 0:06:33.200
<v Speaker 2>There has to be some part of that above the line,

0:06:33.200 --> 0:06:33.839
<v Speaker 2>above the wae.

0:06:34.000 --> 0:06:37.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so we got that right. So say three are

0:06:37.040 --> 0:06:39.599
<v Speaker 1>pretty much neck and neck. They all more or less

0:06:39.600 --> 0:06:43.000
<v Speaker 1>come back to across the finish line together, we go

0:06:43.120 --> 0:06:46.400
<v Speaker 1>to a powerful song we always do. And then and

0:06:46.440 --> 0:06:48.920
<v Speaker 1>then what are we doing? We're measuring.

0:06:51.720 --> 0:06:56.400
<v Speaker 2>I don't know why we've got three person's photo finish.

0:06:56.680 --> 0:06:59.880
<v Speaker 1>They're all putting their chest And then you got a

0:07:00.520 --> 0:07:01.040
<v Speaker 1>old fellow.

0:07:02.200 --> 0:07:04.960
<v Speaker 2>No, we have a clear winner in the race.

0:07:05.360 --> 0:07:07.520
<v Speaker 1>Hang on, let's just confuse us right now. I'll tell

0:07:07.560 --> 0:07:12.160
<v Speaker 1>you now, Caitlin producing, Caitlin, what do you think?

0:07:12.200 --> 0:07:13.160
<v Speaker 2>How do you see this going?

0:07:13.760 --> 0:07:17.080
<v Speaker 4>So we will have a line and it's a disqualification line,

0:07:18.920 --> 0:07:20.000
<v Speaker 4>it's the miniscus line.

0:07:20.080 --> 0:07:23.000
<v Speaker 1>Yes, So if you can collect into production guys over

0:07:23.000 --> 0:07:25.679
<v Speaker 1>the weekend, I want to hear that the maniscous line

0:07:25.720 --> 0:07:30.800
<v Speaker 1>will would decide whilst everyone else is boring you about alphabets,

0:07:31.000 --> 0:07:34.960
<v Speaker 1>I want to double down on chemistry. Okay, maniscus line.

0:07:35.920 --> 0:07:38.480
<v Speaker 4>If you go below the miniscus line and you cross the.

0:07:38.400 --> 0:07:41.680
<v Speaker 1>Line first when you say that this miniscus line nine line,

0:07:41.720 --> 0:07:42.960
<v Speaker 1>because that's what the production will do.

0:07:43.160 --> 0:07:46.680
<v Speaker 4>If you go past the miniscus line line line, then

0:07:46.720 --> 0:07:52.480
<v Speaker 4>that means that you are disqualified regardless, disqualified, shame, you're

0:07:52.600 --> 0:07:55.480
<v Speaker 4>out if you cross the line and you're above the mini.

0:07:56.000 --> 0:07:58.440
<v Speaker 1>If you lose the one hundred meters like final at

0:07:58.440 --> 0:08:02.480
<v Speaker 1>the Olympics, you're not disqualified to just squalify you loser.

0:08:03.200 --> 0:08:05.560
<v Speaker 2>She's right if you lose too much liquid, because we

0:08:05.680 --> 0:08:07.800
<v Speaker 2>have to the idea is it's a beer, right, absolutely,

0:08:07.840 --> 0:08:09.560
<v Speaker 2>you got to get the beer there pretty much for

0:08:10.000 --> 0:08:13.560
<v Speaker 2>so if you're going below the miniscous line line line,

0:08:13.880 --> 0:08:17.440
<v Speaker 2>you have to be to scoorded ineligible right correct.

0:08:17.720 --> 0:08:21.600
<v Speaker 4>If you cross the line and you still have beer.

0:08:21.960 --> 0:08:23.000
<v Speaker 3>Are you shouting.

0:08:25.320 --> 0:08:27.520
<v Speaker 2>Simple serious race.

0:08:28.320 --> 0:08:30.360
<v Speaker 1>Yelling at everyone is aggressive in the morning.

0:08:30.640 --> 0:08:34.040
<v Speaker 4>Okay, if you go across the line and your beer

0:08:34.200 --> 0:08:39.240
<v Speaker 4>is above the miniscus line line line, regardless of how

0:08:40.160 --> 0:08:42.439
<v Speaker 4>much to the top or how much to the miniscous

0:08:42.520 --> 0:08:45.440
<v Speaker 4>line line line. It is you win?

0:08:45.960 --> 0:08:49.080
<v Speaker 2>Yes, yeah, the winner is a person who crosses the

0:08:49.080 --> 0:08:49.640
<v Speaker 2>finish line.

0:08:49.679 --> 0:08:55.320
<v Speaker 1>Forniscous winner? Is that right? Real? With two degrees?

0:08:55.360 --> 0:08:58.280
<v Speaker 2>That is correct? It's very simple. And how we going

0:08:58.320 --> 0:08:58.720
<v Speaker 2>to measure?

0:08:58.720 --> 0:09:00.040
<v Speaker 1>Do we need a special micro.

0:09:01.679 --> 0:09:03.160
<v Speaker 2>We don't need a measure, We just need to have

0:09:03.200 --> 0:09:05.199
<v Speaker 2>a look. Do we need your pass you?

0:09:05.320 --> 0:09:05.959
<v Speaker 1>That's a great point.

0:09:06.040 --> 0:09:11.160
