It's the 0:00:35.200 --> 0:00:38.600 Christian O'Connell show. Good morning, Patsy, Good morning Jack? Are 0:00:38.640 --> 0:00:41.000 you I was talking into the wrong about the microphone? 0:00:41.040 --> 0:00:41.159 Then? 0:00:41.320 --> 0:00:44.120 Pro how many years have you've been doing it? 0:00:44.360 --> 0:00:45.720 Sorry? 0:00:46.040 --> 0:00:49.360 Have you been doing that too many? Yesterday? Jack and 0:00:49.400 --> 0:00:52.240 I both we need to get into this because I think, actually, 0:00:52.280 --> 0:00:54.320 if we don't talk about and pull the plaster of 0:00:54.360 --> 0:00:56.880 what happened yesterday after the show, I think we're going 0:00:56.920 --> 0:00:59.840 to struggle to get to today's show. Yesterday, Jack and 0:00:59.880 --> 0:01:04.160 I I met a mutual radio hero of ours from 0:01:04.200 --> 0:01:07.360 American Rosso. We met Rosso. He was in the building 0:01:07.560 --> 0:01:10.320 and since the show started he sent me a couple 0:01:10.400 --> 0:01:12.679 of messages. He listened to the show. He's a genuine 0:01:12.680 --> 0:01:16.119 fan of what we do. But that radio show, those 0:01:16.160 --> 0:01:20.399 two used to be so funny, like really funny. They 0:01:20.440 --> 0:01:23.160 had ideas. It was a proper show every day. Do 0:01:23.200 --> 0:01:24.840 you remember when radio shows used to do that? They 0:01:24.880 --> 0:01:28.160 actually had ideas and they were so good together. I 0:01:28.200 --> 0:01:28.880 loved that show. 0:01:29.000 --> 0:01:30.760 It was the first radio show that I ever fell 0:01:30.760 --> 0:01:33.560 in love with. American Rosso had their CDs, ID they 0:01:33.600 --> 0:01:36.000 even have a book of jokes that I had, and 0:01:36.040 --> 0:01:38.040 I'd never met either of them before yesterday. 0:01:38.160 --> 0:01:38.920 Oh haven't you met? 0:01:38.959 --> 0:01:40.800 I thought you would have done well now, just never 0:01:40.920 --> 0:01:43.520 cross paths with them in all my time in radio. 0:01:43.880 --> 0:01:46.600 So it was a thrill for me to see Rosso yesterday, 0:01:47.440 --> 0:01:49.640 despite what I said to him. 0:01:49.960 --> 0:01:51.760 So also, you need to know that Jack and I 0:01:51.800 --> 0:01:53.640 didn't know he was in the building. I think if 0:01:53.680 --> 0:01:56.120 we'd have had half an hour or an hour's warning, yeah, 0:01:56.120 --> 0:01:57.720 we could have warmed up. And let me just tell you, right, 0:01:57.760 --> 0:02:01.000 Jack said something, luckily i'd said something seconds before that 0:02:01.120 --> 0:02:03.320 that you didn't hear. Neither of us come out very 0:02:03.360 --> 0:02:06.760 well from this encounter. Right, everything's good, he said, He 0:02:06.800 --> 0:02:10.520 sent me messages yesterday evening. Everything's good. Okay, However, I 0:02:10.639 --> 0:02:13.000 can't stop thinking about what you said to him, but 0:02:13.040 --> 0:02:15.600 also what I said moments before. All Right, you go first, Okay, 0:02:15.639 --> 0:02:16.760 I'll go first. 0:02:17.280 --> 0:02:18.919 You know you're already talking to him, and I. 0:02:19.120 --> 0:02:21.120 Let me go first because I'd already set up the 0:02:21.200 --> 0:02:23.639 weird Okay, I went, I didn't know you were here, 0:02:24.000 --> 0:02:25.280 and he was like, yeah, I've been trying to get 0:02:25.280 --> 0:02:27.240 a coffee for ages. I was, ah. And then you 0:02:27.320 --> 0:02:29.480 saw he had one of his kids with him. Yes, 0:02:29.919 --> 0:02:31.280 I went, is this your daughter? 0:02:31.400 --> 0:02:33.560 Oh no, no. 0:02:33.000 --> 0:02:36.240 No it's not. It's his very cool son, buggsy, long 0:02:36.280 --> 0:02:44.560 haird hair. Straight away, I agree, horrendous wors. 0:02:44.480 --> 0:02:46.400 Long haired son. Yeah, cool son. 0:02:46.400 --> 0:02:50.480 No, Buggsy, it's my son. That's my first. That's within 0:02:50.560 --> 0:02:54.200 five seconds of my radio hero. Already you're a mumbley 0:02:54.360 --> 0:02:56.000 all right, already. 0:02:55.760 --> 0:02:58.640 Even in both ross and he's making it worse. 0:02:58.760 --> 0:02:59.760 Jack, I'm trying to make this. 0:03:00.320 --> 0:03:02.280 Actually, I actually feel better now about what I said. 0:03:02.280 --> 0:03:05.600 Well, then that's a sacrifice I've done people. Okay, so yeah, 0:03:05.639 --> 0:03:09.600 I accuse this a girl just because he had long air. 0:03:10.040 --> 0:03:12.000 Oh you am? I in, I've got kids. 0:03:12.000 --> 0:03:14.200 I've seen their friends dumb and dummery. 0:03:14.400 --> 0:03:16.799 I should I didn't. I panicked. I felt I needed 0:03:16.840 --> 0:03:20.519 to say something to buy myself time to get my brain. 0:03:20.720 --> 0:03:21.760 Throw the kid under the busy. 0:03:22.400 --> 0:03:26.160 Here's this old fellow here. What's your name? Sweetheart? Oh boy, 0:03:26.240 --> 0:03:29.560 you can't tell these days, can you? Straight away? 0:03:29.600 --> 0:03:33.240 And then you come bowllying thirty seconds later, So already 0:03:33.919 --> 0:03:36.360 Rosso has been insulted by one member of the team. 0:03:36.560 --> 0:03:39.840 Then I said, I wanted to express how much he 0:03:39.920 --> 0:03:42.000 meant to me as a kid growing up. So I said, 0:03:42.080 --> 0:03:46.200 I used to be a big fan of yours, which imply. 0:03:47.400 --> 0:03:49.520 It is past ten saying nothing you do now is 0:03:49.600 --> 0:03:52.120 relevant to me or funny. You're still doing great. 0:03:52.160 --> 0:03:53.600 So now I couldn't care less. 0:03:53.640 --> 0:03:58.040 No, was it really fifteen years ago? He used to 0:03:58.120 --> 0:04:01.120 be funny and relevant? Oh what happens to that? Rosso? 0:04:01.440 --> 0:04:03.000 Are you here? Have you got a devo team? Do 0:04:03.000 --> 0:04:04.560 you want a traffic job here or something? 0:04:04.960 --> 0:04:06.800 So I excuse myself rather quickly. 0:04:07.080 --> 0:04:09.560 Oh I sure, you just apart? I just because I 0:04:09.760 --> 0:04:11.720 was in my mind's here I thought he was a fan. 0:04:11.800 --> 0:04:12.920 Why not gone so quick? 0:04:13.520 --> 0:04:16.600 Because I didn't want to sit in the awkwardness Now? 0:04:16.680 --> 0:04:19.240 No, I still had another fifteen minutes trying to pull 0:04:19.320 --> 0:04:22.479 back in the weirdness that I've created with the well 0:04:22.600 --> 0:04:25.920 the sun not girl busy anyway, we need to get 0:04:25.920 --> 0:04:27.679 out their way. Just don't meet your heroes, guys. 0:04:28.080 --> 0:04:31.159 The Christian O'Connell show podcast. 0:04:30.800 --> 0:04:33.480 There is something we said for just leave your heroes alone. 0:04:34.000 --> 0:04:36.280 Another radio hero that I keep seeing here because he 0:04:36.320 --> 0:04:37.960 goes the same place we often go to down the 0:04:38.000 --> 0:04:40.920 road in Richmond is Mick molloy. Me malloy, another big 0:04:41.240 --> 0:04:43.640 I'm such a mega fan. I'm a fan boy. I've 0:04:43.680 --> 0:04:45.680 often been in there right when he's in there, and 0:04:45.720 --> 0:04:47.400 even the people serving me are going, oh, there's another 0:04:47.520 --> 0:04:50.120 radio guy in here. M Malloy's over that night. I've 0:04:50.160 --> 0:04:52.480 never gone over because I know nothing good will come 0:04:52.480 --> 0:04:56.200 of that. I'll fumble it, I'll get nervous, I'll say something, 0:04:56.680 --> 0:04:59.400 I'll try too hard. And he's just in there. He's 0:04:59.400 --> 0:05:00.440 to have a breakfast. 0:05:00.120 --> 0:05:00.760 Just want to enjoy it. 0:05:00.839 --> 0:05:03.840 He's not in the space. We're not a radio functional that. 0:05:04.080 --> 0:05:06.640 He's only going to get irritated, right, So I've just 0:05:06.800 --> 0:05:10.000 left him alone. And now the whole Rosso thing yesterday, 0:05:10.240 --> 0:05:12.240 Jack's made me worse. It made me feel worse as 0:05:12.279 --> 0:05:14.839 well because when I accidentally called his son a girl, 0:05:15.080 --> 0:05:17.560 and I just said, oh, what's your what's what's this 0:05:17.880 --> 0:05:21.200 your daughter? To Rosso right? Bugs is a cool name, 0:05:21.240 --> 0:05:24.159 by the way. He then when you turned up a 0:05:24.160 --> 0:05:27.000 couple of second days, he's clown number two. I better 0:05:27.160 --> 0:05:29.280 just head this off the boss case you go who's 0:05:29.320 --> 0:05:31.799 this little girl here? Well, and this is my son 0:05:32.120 --> 0:05:34.960 and I reckon. He emphasized the words son just so 0:05:35.040 --> 0:05:37.600 he didn't get to in a row, Yes, in a row. 0:05:37.920 --> 0:05:40.840 There is something about meeting your heroes because it rarely 0:05:41.080 --> 0:05:44.320 comes off. Well. I remember years ago, right, there was 0:05:44.560 --> 0:05:47.279 an amazing band called the Jam in the UK, and 0:05:47.320 --> 0:05:49.799 then it became the Style Council and then the single 0:05:49.800 --> 0:05:52.839 of those bands. Paul Weller is just like an amazing 0:05:52.880 --> 0:05:55.200 solo artist, right, He so like one of the icons 0:05:55.400 --> 0:05:58.440 of British rock music, best friends with Noel Gallagher does 0:05:58.440 --> 0:05:59.840 a lot of stuff with it or Adulty on the 0:06:00.000 --> 0:06:02.680 who Everyone loves Paul Weller. Right. I'm a massive Paul 0:06:02.680 --> 0:06:06.120 Weller fan. And one day I'm in the London underground, right, 0:06:06.200 --> 0:06:09.400 and it's about half ten on a Thursday morning. There's me, 0:06:09.600 --> 0:06:12.320 Paul Weller gets on and only two other people right 0:06:12.360 --> 0:06:15.919 in a London tube just a carriage. One of the 0:06:15.920 --> 0:06:17.720 guys who's in there, just a member of the public, 0:06:17.800 --> 0:06:20.719 recognizes me and goes, oh, well, the chance this you 0:06:20.760 --> 0:06:22.839 and Paul Weller here? He plays music all the time. 0:06:23.000 --> 0:06:24.520 Are you going to go and say hello? And I 0:06:24.520 --> 0:06:26.760 don't want to bother him? Anyway, as we get off 0:06:26.880 --> 0:06:28.839 at Waterloo train station. Right, you got these big long 0:06:28.920 --> 0:06:31.240 escalators and Paul Weller's only a couple of bits ahead 0:06:31.279 --> 0:06:33.240 of me. Right, cup sets me. I'm thinking I really 0:06:33.240 --> 0:06:35.839 should say something. I'm such a massive fan. I can't 0:06:35.839 --> 0:06:38.440 believe what I said. At the top. Right I see him, 0:06:38.520 --> 0:06:40.520 I say, hey, Paul, we've never met before, but I'm 0:06:40.520 --> 0:06:43.200 a massive fan of yours, and he is someone who, 0:06:44.160 --> 0:06:46.000 you know, some being really good with members of the public. 0:06:46.080 --> 0:06:47.680 This guy did not want to be talking to me, 0:06:48.160 --> 0:06:50.760 and that's what rock stars should be like. He's not 0:06:50.800 --> 0:06:52.960 one of those you know, Hey, how you doing and 0:06:53.000 --> 0:06:54.600 all this and let's get a phone to He went, 0:06:54.960 --> 0:06:58.800 yep like that, and I felt so small. Please forgive 0:06:58.839 --> 0:07:01.320 what I said. Next, I went, I'm a radio d 0:07:01.440 --> 0:07:02.920 J and I played one of your songs today. 0:07:04.160 --> 0:07:06.360 I'm desperate, clutching at straws. 0:07:06.400 --> 0:07:07.559 I'm going to go home.

Story reminds me, I know you're 0:07:18.560 --> 0:07:22.480 a fan of Modern Family. When Phil Dumphi meets his 0:07:23.080 --> 0:07:26.240 hero Kobe Bryant, and Phil can't think of what to say, 0:07:26.280 --> 0:07:33.960 so he says to him, do you like basketball? I'm 0:07:33.960 --> 0:07:35.760 gonna have that dig out of that episode. I love 0:07:35.800 --> 0:07:38.320 watching Modern Family, very very good show.

And if you guys 0:07:45.240 --> 0:07:47.680 could give me some sympathy for my wife. 0:07:47.680 --> 0:07:50.360 Did mummy put that plaster on what? I've just seen 0:07:50.400 --> 0:07:50.880 the plaster? 0:07:51.040 --> 0:07:55.320 Now I had to apply that myself. So I was 0:07:55.320 --> 0:07:58.480 washing up last night and hit the knife as I'm 0:07:58.480 --> 0:08:00.880 trying to wash it, and it's gone like through the 0:08:00.880 --> 0:08:03.400 top of the finger and the nails. It's really gone 0:08:03.440 --> 0:08:06.480 in there. And I've jolted and like thrown the knife 0:08:06.480 --> 0:08:11.000 and started going. Beakers come running in like what what's 0:08:11.000 --> 0:08:13.920 all the fuss about? And I thought she would take 0:08:13.960 --> 0:08:16.120 sympathy on me and like I'll do the washing up. 0:08:16.160 --> 0:08:18.920 Let No they don't care. I care, she didn't care. 0:08:20.080 --> 0:08:21.480 I've got no pain threshold. 0:08:21.520 --> 0:08:22.600 Where's the first age? 0:08:22.720 --> 0:08:22.960 This is? 0:08:23.120 --> 0:08:25.560 I mean, that is what I call toxic femininity and 0:08:25.600 --> 0:08:28.960 the pain. Why can't we feel pain? 0:08:29.760 --> 0:08:31.360 Saying you can't? It's just it's low. 0:08:31.520 --> 0:08:34.840 The blood was gushing. I was actually hoping to gushcushy. 0:08:36.160 --> 0:08:41.960 I'm on your shy like a water beating out, beating out. 0:08:42.120 --> 0:08:44.120 Actually started to put pressure on the thumb to put 0:08:44.120 --> 0:08:45.559 more blood out, to make it look. 0:08:45.440 --> 0:08:47.079 Just to squeeze out a few more drops yet. 0:08:48.360 --> 0:08:50.640 And I was asking where the first aid kit was, 0:08:50.679 --> 0:08:51.480 where's the bandas? 0:08:51.520 --> 0:08:54.240 And she did what you in an offish? Where's the 0:08:54.360 --> 0:08:56.800 first aid kit? Where's the defibuting in case they started 0:08:56.800 --> 0:08:57.360 to bleed out? 0:08:58.960 --> 0:09:01.560 And then she goes, she didn't give me any sympathy 0:09:01.600 --> 0:09:01.840 for that. 0:09:01.920 --> 0:09:02.480 I don't care. 0:09:02.559 --> 0:09:05.480 And then over at the sink, I guess when I've 0:09:05.800 --> 0:09:08.680 hit the knife and cut myself. I've thrown the knife 0:09:08.800 --> 0:09:11.959 and somehow I've cut this house plant that's its next. 0:09:13.040 --> 0:09:16.400 Like a ninja throw stuff a leaf. 0:09:17.160 --> 0:09:18.680 I don't know how I done it, cut one of 0:09:18.679 --> 0:09:20.800 its limbs off, and goes, what's. 0:09:20.600 --> 0:09:24.000 Going on here? She's mocked concern about a small plant. 0:09:24.440 --> 0:09:26.520 You've cut this off? Like I didn't cut that off? 0:09:27.160 --> 0:09:28.360 What happened to the house plan? 0:09:29.440 --> 0:09:32.480 Maybe when I got you, I just save them all 0:09:32.520 --> 0:09:34.800 off and then slashed your own thumb. 0:09:34.640 --> 0:09:37.520 So the house plant got full sympathy and I got none. 0:09:37.720 --> 0:09:40.200 I tried to fake that. I was like, woozy, I. 0:09:40.559 --> 0:09:43.600 Can't even I'm getting irritated now see this is what 0:09:43.640 --> 0:09:45.360 I've got. Now I'm going to be anchor side now. 0:09:45.760 --> 0:09:48.760 The Christian O'Connell show podcast. 0:09:48.559 --> 0:09:51.760 Is their legislation right about? Can anyone just direct a 0:09:51.840 --> 0:09:53.280 giant something in Australia? 0:09:53.520 --> 0:09:55.360 It seems like any town can just choose they want 0:09:55.400 --> 0:09:56.080 to giant anything. 0:09:56.120 --> 0:09:57.640 When we were doing our road trip for a week, 0:09:58.000 --> 0:10:00.920 driving to Adelaide, then the a couple of days driving around, 0:10:00.960 --> 0:10:03.240 then then driving all the way back to Melbourne, obviously 0:10:03.280 --> 0:10:06.000 saw mention this yesterday, saw the giant corner. Also saw 0:10:06.000 --> 0:10:08.240 the giant lobster. Yes, so I feel like you know 0:10:08.320 --> 0:10:11.600 these are the landmarks, these are the hanging gardens or Babylon. 0:10:11.920 --> 0:10:14.360 You know they're amazing. Is that what's to stop us 0:10:14.400 --> 0:10:16.880 just erecting a giant something? Does Melbourne need something? Does 0:10:16.960 --> 0:10:18.160 Richmond here need something? Also? 0:10:18.280 --> 0:10:20.280 Can we just what if we did a koala and 0:10:20.360 --> 0:10:22.400 just made it bigger than that one halfway out of the. 0:10:22.559 --> 0:10:30.520 D's cute than a kidnap? Well, a few things I 0:10:30.520 --> 0:10:32.079 didn't know you hate? What's the hate. 0:10:32.240 --> 0:10:34.360 Kidnaped, but like a puppy is cute to the kidne 0:10:34.360 --> 0:10:34.880 all right, so. 0:10:34.840 --> 0:10:38.480 A giant puppy, a wooden giant puppy, or a fiberglass 0:10:39.080 --> 0:10:42.760 fiberglass is cheaper and looks glasty. We all know that, right, 0:10:43.000 --> 0:10:46.240 Fiberglass looks glassy. So we talked about potential moment then 0:10:46.440 --> 0:10:49.120 a fiberglass giant puppy. Yeah, yeah, I think people would 0:10:49.120 --> 0:10:50.679 come from all over austraighta and get the photo taken 0:10:50.679 --> 0:10:52.440 a by that. The other thing is I was driving 0:10:52.440 --> 0:10:54.160 around I saw a sign as I went through a 0:10:54.160 --> 0:10:56.360 place called Horsham. Do you know Horsham? 0:10:56.440 --> 0:10:56.640 Yeah? 0:10:56.640 --> 0:10:58.280 I used to live in Horsham. I used to work 0:10:58.280 --> 0:11:00.000 it through WM for about a year. 0:11:00.280 --> 0:11:02.040 Right well, and I don't know what what will you with? 0:11:02.120 --> 0:11:04.559 That have been ninety four right well? 0:11:04.559 --> 0:11:07.000 A lot of change, Patsy, because they are very proud. 0:11:07.000 --> 0:11:08.960 It's not a big wooden warden that they've had hand 0:11:09.040 --> 0:11:11.640 painted both sides of the road. So as you're going 0:11:11.640 --> 0:11:13.920 through the town then leaving it, it reminds you what 0:11:14.320 --> 0:11:20.960 it is Victoria's tidiest town winner. Oh it was spotless. 0:11:21.240 --> 0:11:23.160 I don't know who's tied in that place up.

Sure the judges have gone you've won 0:11:31.240 --> 0:11:33.240 the award. People are going to get sloppy. This is 0:11:33.280 --> 0:11:35.760 what happens, okay, but that place it was like the 0:11:35.800 --> 0:11:38.319 judges were turning up. It was spotless. 0:11:38.679 --> 0:11:40.680 Is it something they give out every year or is 0:11:40.720 --> 0:11:42.840 it Horsham is now the tidiest town forever? 0:11:43.000 --> 0:11:47.200 Go online, my friend, you'll see all the previous. 0:11:46.160 --> 0:11:48.439 Yeah, wangarattaware I used to one. 0:11:48.520 --> 0:11:51.960 I believe they are a previous flag holder. Horsham are 0:11:52.040 --> 0:11:54.439 like MVPs. I think they've got it like three or 0:11:54.480 --> 0:11:57.480 four times. They've lost it, they've won it back, you know, 0:11:57.520 --> 0:11:59.439 they've had a couple of really really tough years like 0:11:59.480 --> 0:12:01.760 the D's.
