0:00:09.760 --> 0:00:13.360
<v Speaker 1>don't use I don't use the word halo very often,

0:00:13.800 --> 0:00:15.880
<v Speaker 1>but I just called it as I say it. I

0:00:15.920 --> 0:00:19.320
<v Speaker 1>can't even look at it because it's like twenty sons

0:00:19.320 --> 0:00:23.439
<v Speaker 1>because someone here has arisen once more as a radio

0:00:23.600 --> 0:00:29.280
<v Speaker 1>Acro winner, double awards, back to back. It was the

0:00:29.280 --> 0:00:31.760
<v Speaker 1>big radio awards over the weekend in Sydney and Patsy

0:00:31.920 --> 0:00:35.840
<v Speaker 1>won the same awards he won last year, second time running.

0:00:35.880 --> 0:00:38.200
<v Speaker 2>Well done. You may now refer to me as Dame

0:00:38.280 --> 0:00:39.400
<v Speaker 2>Patsy please today.

0:00:40.680 --> 0:00:42.239
<v Speaker 1>To be honest, we we have been doing that for

0:00:42.280 --> 0:00:44.040
<v Speaker 1>a while before I even't met you.

0:00:45.479 --> 0:00:49.440
<v Speaker 2>Oh wow, Look honestly, and I did say Friday, I

0:00:49.520 --> 0:00:54.560
<v Speaker 2>really honestly didn't. I sort of my spidery senses generally,

0:00:54.800 --> 0:00:57.040
<v Speaker 2>I know when I feel good about something, do you

0:00:57.040 --> 0:00:58.920
<v Speaker 2>know what I'm saying? And I just had no hint

0:00:59.320 --> 0:01:02.200
<v Speaker 2>at all Friday, Like, I honestly thought, like, what are

0:01:02.200 --> 0:01:04.399
<v Speaker 2>the chances of back to back? I'm so overwhelmed.

0:01:04.560 --> 0:01:06.480
<v Speaker 1>Has any news presenter everyone back to back?

0:01:06.560 --> 0:01:09.399
<v Speaker 2>Best news reader not sure, Jack, I don't think so. Sure,

0:01:09.600 --> 0:01:13.240
<v Speaker 2>I don't think so. But it is incredibly overwhelming. And

0:01:13.319 --> 0:01:16.000
<v Speaker 2>deb Knight read out the nominees, which was also a

0:01:16.040 --> 0:01:19.679
<v Speaker 2>thrill for me because ila.

0:01:18.760 --> 0:01:20.880
<v Speaker 1>Who I listen to this? Who is Deborah Knight?

0:01:20.959 --> 0:01:22.480
<v Speaker 2>Oh, Debora Knight's a big.

0:01:22.360 --> 0:01:23.360
<v Speaker 1>She's a dre Knight's mom.

0:01:23.680 --> 0:01:27.839
<v Speaker 2>No, no, Deborah, Deborah Knight is a legendary news reader

0:01:27.840 --> 0:01:30.880
<v Speaker 2>and journalist. She's on two GB at the moment. And

0:01:30.959 --> 0:01:34.240
<v Speaker 2>I've always loved Deb's work and introduced myself to it

0:01:34.280 --> 0:01:36.280
<v Speaker 2>The Australian opened a couple of years ago. You know,

0:01:36.319 --> 0:01:37.920
<v Speaker 2>I was one of those annoying people. I thought, you

0:01:37.959 --> 0:01:39.240
<v Speaker 2>know what, I'm just going to go up to her

0:01:39.440 --> 0:01:41.880
<v Speaker 2>and tell her how much I adore her. Anyway, when

0:01:41.880 --> 0:01:44.720
<v Speaker 2>I walked into the room Saturday night, she actually remembered

0:01:44.720 --> 0:01:46.680
<v Speaker 2>me and came up to me before the awards even

0:01:46.680 --> 0:01:48.680
<v Speaker 2>got up underway. So that was a thrill. You must

0:01:48.680 --> 0:01:51.960
<v Speaker 2>have left an impression at the tenth Jack, I must have.

0:01:52.360 --> 0:01:56.120
<v Speaker 2>And Dicky was there as well, But it was, oh,

0:01:56.360 --> 0:01:58.400
<v Speaker 2>it was. It felt different to last year. What are

0:01:58.440 --> 0:02:00.920
<v Speaker 2>you laughing at? We didn't say who Dicky was either.

0:02:02.120 --> 0:02:04.040
<v Speaker 1>We're going to get quite the story here.

0:02:04.320 --> 0:02:11.400
<v Speaker 2>Great story at the end of the night. No, No,

0:02:11.760 --> 0:02:15.359
<v Speaker 2>it did feel different to last year. Like last year

0:02:15.440 --> 0:02:17.720
<v Speaker 2>felt I don't know, I can't explain it. This year

0:02:17.760 --> 0:02:21.200
<v Speaker 2>I felt, I think I've grown a lot this year.

0:02:21.280 --> 0:02:24.000
<v Speaker 2>If I can sort of sound a bit egotistical, I

0:02:24.000 --> 0:02:27.360
<v Speaker 2>think I've grown a lot within myself and into my skin.

0:02:27.440 --> 0:02:29.280
<v Speaker 2>And I think that's a lot to do with now

0:02:29.280 --> 0:02:33.560
<v Speaker 2>I'm in my fifties and I'm probably more comfortable and confident, perhaps,

0:02:34.760 --> 0:02:37.040
<v Speaker 2>But what I love most about, Yes, it's a news

0:02:37.040 --> 0:02:40.400
<v Speaker 2>reading awed, but it's also about what I love most about.

0:02:40.440 --> 0:02:43.120
<v Speaker 2>My job is obviously working on the show, but also

0:02:43.200 --> 0:02:47.720
<v Speaker 2>the connection with the audience. And I love obviously informing people,

0:02:47.760 --> 0:02:50.440
<v Speaker 2>but telling them stories. That's that's what I love. You

0:02:50.520 --> 0:02:55.880
<v Speaker 2>live for stories. And yeah, I'm just I'm really overwhelmed, Hue.

0:02:56.160 --> 0:02:58.480
<v Speaker 1>You so deserve all the recognition he're getting at the WAW.

0:02:58.520 --> 0:03:00.440
<v Speaker 1>It's been it's been too long before you've had due

0:03:00.440 --> 0:03:02.600
<v Speaker 1>recognition for just how great you are. So tell me

0:03:02.639 --> 0:03:05.000
<v Speaker 1>what was your action from like, because chrisaw where We

0:03:05.040 --> 0:03:07.079
<v Speaker 1>Love God was there and Audi was there as well.

0:03:07.080 --> 0:03:08.240
<v Speaker 1>They must be so proud of you.

0:03:08.320 --> 0:03:10.440
<v Speaker 2>Oh, they were so excited. So they were staying. It

0:03:10.480 --> 0:03:12.320
<v Speaker 2>was held at Star City in Sydney, and they were

0:03:12.320 --> 0:03:15.359
<v Speaker 2>staying in the hotel, so they were like six flights up.

0:03:15.680 --> 0:03:17.359
<v Speaker 1>And you did fancy bringing them down so they could

0:03:17.360 --> 0:03:20.360
<v Speaker 1>actually see you. Take the key with me. Don't get

0:03:20.440 --> 0:03:21.560
<v Speaker 1>don't come out, don't come down.

0:03:21.600 --> 0:03:25.160
<v Speaker 2>Embarrassment, it's mummy's snape, I said to them. They were

0:03:25.280 --> 0:03:27.919
<v Speaker 2>very reluctant, but I said, I think you'll be allowed

0:03:27.960 --> 0:03:29.960
<v Speaker 2>to come to the red carpet just to see, you know,

0:03:30.160 --> 0:03:33.600
<v Speaker 2>what happens and helps. It was more about involving them

0:03:33.680 --> 0:03:35.880
<v Speaker 2>because they're such a major. I couldn't do this if

0:03:35.920 --> 0:03:39.720
<v Speaker 2>it wasn't for Chris is just phenomenal and lets me

0:03:40.120 --> 0:03:43.000
<v Speaker 2>most of all, lets me be me and doesn't want

0:03:43.000 --> 0:03:45.080
<v Speaker 2>to change me and just accept. You know, it's a

0:03:45.120 --> 0:03:47.080
<v Speaker 2>hard life. You guys would know it's a hard life

0:03:47.120 --> 0:03:49.720
<v Speaker 2>for your partners. It's almost like being a single parent

0:03:49.760 --> 0:03:52.120
<v Speaker 2>a lot of the time. You know, they pick up

0:03:52.200 --> 0:03:54.120
<v Speaker 2>so much of the slack, and then when you are

0:03:54.200 --> 0:03:56.480
<v Speaker 2>home in the second part of the day, you can

0:03:56.520 --> 0:03:59.080
<v Speaker 2>be so tired and grumpy, and they do have to

0:03:59.120 --> 0:04:03.160
<v Speaker 2>pick up so much. Their husband and wife a lot

0:04:03.160 --> 0:04:05.760
<v Speaker 2>of the time, and he is he is an absolute

0:04:05.880 --> 0:04:09.280
<v Speaker 2>rock He's absolutely phenomenal as a dad and I love

0:04:09.360 --> 0:04:12.839
<v Speaker 2>him to bits. And it's as much their award as

0:04:12.840 --> 0:04:16.040
<v Speaker 2>it is mine and Caitlyn producer Caitlyn had Audy on

0:04:16.160 --> 0:04:19.560
<v Speaker 2>FaceTime and so they did come down to the red carpet,

0:04:19.640 --> 0:04:21.599
<v Speaker 2>or they they did come down to the red carpet

0:04:21.640 --> 0:04:23.200
<v Speaker 2>and then retreat it because it was just you know,

0:04:23.279 --> 0:04:24.839
<v Speaker 2>it's a squash, you know what it's like, it's just

0:04:24.920 --> 0:04:27.600
<v Speaker 2>people everywhere. So he's everyone in their suits and they're

0:04:27.640 --> 0:04:30.520
<v Speaker 2>in their tracky decks or did they know they did.

0:04:31.040 --> 0:04:33.760
<v Speaker 1>Hotel address those little selfish again.

0:04:34.680 --> 0:04:37.000
<v Speaker 2>He did have his boat shoes on and his denim shorts,

0:04:37.040 --> 0:04:37.480
<v Speaker 2>but you know.

0:04:40.440 --> 0:04:43.640
<v Speaker 1>That look. To be fair, he's probably slightly smarter than

0:04:43.680 --> 0:04:46.360
<v Speaker 1>some of the troubladytes that work in radio. They come

0:04:46.360 --> 0:04:48.400
<v Speaker 1>into Old Big Smoke once a year for a radio

0:04:48.480 --> 0:04:50.080
<v Speaker 1>wards and a drink cup.

0:04:50.880 --> 0:04:53.279
<v Speaker 2>But Alreadie, when I got back to the table, it

0:04:53.279 --> 0:04:55.320
<v Speaker 2>was very early the award. It was like eight thirty

0:04:55.360 --> 0:04:57.600
<v Speaker 2>this year. It's normally sort of they push news off

0:04:57.600 --> 0:05:00.080
<v Speaker 2>to the back end of the of the night, so

0:05:00.120 --> 0:05:02.880
<v Speaker 2>that kind of took us unawares. It's like, well, okay, well.

0:05:02.720 --> 0:05:05.279
<v Speaker 1>Then they probably realized last year like she's been drinking.

0:05:05.320 --> 0:05:09.400
<v Speaker 1>All right, let's do before she gets like a second win. Otherwise,

0:05:10.320 --> 0:05:14.040
<v Speaker 1>don't letting go of that microphone. Make sure it's done

0:05:14.080 --> 0:05:15.440
<v Speaker 1>before night chairs.

0:05:15.279 --> 0:05:19.320
<v Speaker 2>Getting thrown across the room. So yeah, So Caitlin was

0:05:19.360 --> 0:05:22.520
<v Speaker 2>facetiming Ords and and she sent me you know the

0:05:22.560 --> 0:05:25.440
<v Speaker 2>party emoji and goes yay your number one again, mum,

0:05:25.520 --> 0:05:27.760
<v Speaker 2>And and I just wrote back to her, you know

0:05:28.240 --> 0:05:31.160
<v Speaker 2>everything I do, Ords, this is all for you and I.

0:05:31.560 --> 0:05:34.200
<v Speaker 1>On the sixth floor that don't come down. I told

0:05:34.240 --> 0:05:38.480
<v Speaker 1>you don't watch your face time. Have a look at

0:05:38.480 --> 0:05:40.000
<v Speaker 1>the red carpet. It's actually then.

0:05:42.040 --> 0:05:43.680
<v Speaker 2>And I just wanted it to know when we tell

0:05:43.680 --> 0:05:46.039
<v Speaker 2>her all the time, never let anyone tell you that

0:05:46.080 --> 0:05:47.080
<v Speaker 2>you can't do anything.

0:05:47.120 --> 0:05:49.640
<v Speaker 1>Because she picked that up on the FaceTime WiFi. This

0:05:49.720 --> 0:05:51.320
<v Speaker 1>kind of go I catch you up with you tomorrow.

0:05:51.320 --> 0:05:53.599
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to go get a party, got a guy.

0:05:54.680 --> 0:05:57.520
<v Speaker 2>But I wanted to know that because all through my

0:05:57.600 --> 0:06:00.400
<v Speaker 2>career I've been told by people that know, not good

0:06:00.480 --> 0:06:02.839
<v Speaker 2>enough or no, you're the news girl. You can't cut

0:06:02.880 --> 0:06:06.200
<v Speaker 2>into being on the show with people you meant to

0:06:06.200 --> 0:06:08.880
<v Speaker 2>do the news. And and that's you know, tribute to

0:06:08.960 --> 0:06:11.800
<v Speaker 2>Christian the way that he does our show and the

0:06:11.839 --> 0:06:14.599
<v Speaker 2>way he's always done his show. He's involved the whole team,

0:06:14.760 --> 0:06:17.040
<v Speaker 2>and I'm so grateful for the opportunities that.

0:06:21.040 --> 0:06:23.159
<v Speaker 1>You know, it's a well done Patsy. You really deserve

0:06:23.200 --> 0:06:26.560
<v Speaker 1>your double awards as well. The Christian O'Connell Show podcast
