Let's get on down to the Jonesy demand of arms
for the pub test today. Gold or nothing?

Speaker 1 (00:10):
Yeah, it's silver, pass the pub test. I saw an
interesting study and I discuss it on the podcast I
Do Double a Chattery with my friend Anita.

Speaker 3 (00:17):
She found this study. She's a psychologist that says.

Speaker 1 (00:19):
That people who come silver who get silver aren't as
happy as the people who got bronze, because when you
get silver, you could have, would have should it, whereas
when you get bronze you're thrilled to be. There's a
very different kind of psychology. You're the guy Jones who
wants gold or nothing.

Speaker 2 (00:33):
If you're not first, your last. Yeah, wow, I believe
I've never been a great sporting person, so I'd be
one life.

Speaker 1 (00:41):
That's how you feel in terms of you, how you
feel about this our radio show that you think if
you can't be number one, you know, that's what fuels
you every day.

Speaker 2 (00:48):
Well then, because the thing about radio is you need
to have.

Speaker 3 (00:52):
Listeners for it to work. Yeah, but I'm happy to turn.
Might as well just have a podcast, of.

Speaker 1 (00:56):
Course, Well thank you, but I'm happy to turn. I
look for differences, my motivation, my competition is a different thing.
I like to be to turn up to an office
space where I'm light, where people are nice to me.

Speaker 3 (01:07):
I do a job that I'm happy with. Because you
have a.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
Different work on top Shop and get.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
That absolutely well, maybe we need to recalibrate where we
put our happiness markets.

Speaker 2 (01:17):
Wherever I worked, Even if I worked at top Shop,
my top Shop would be the best top Shop in
the franchise.

Speaker 3 (01:22):

Speaker 1 (01:24):
So the tribal drumas bidding for really, I mean for
our Olympians, whatever you gets brilliant for you personally, the
silver pass the pub test.

Speaker 4 (01:31):
So it's the other dadge, it's the first one to lose.
And I think with that mentality, I think they just
feel bad about it. But look understanding out they we're
all happy, And I saidn't really.

Speaker 5 (01:42):
Matter, Oh definitely. Oh, it's just to show your achievement
with all the hard work that you put in. It's
just a it's a little bit of bling to shoot
to show how much you're put in for or the effort.

Speaker 6 (01:53):
I love the Olympics. I think if anybody trained hard
enough to even get there, they're an olympian. What does
it matter whether they get a medal or not. And
if they get a medal, that's a bonus.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
Yeah, so all our Olympians as long as you as
long as your medal. I'm just getting that out of
the system now because you're going to hear that a lot.

Speaker 3 (02:12):

sound he's medaling. I don't like it.

Speaker 6 (02:18):

Speaker 3 (02:18):
Well, the Olympics start tomorrow. Good luck to everything.
