Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's Robin and Keith for Breakfast.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
Breaking Break, But you're listening to the Robin and Kick podcast.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
Break Great, Good Day.
Speaker 4 (00:14):
It's Robin Kip on demand the podcast. I've don't talk
about a story at halftime, Rob that I think in
Melbourne this would have been the biggest news ever. Yeah,
what is that? It's about Vossi who actually became a
very famous AFL player here at the Lions.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
He was at the time when the Lions won three.
Speaker 5 (00:30):
In a row.
Speaker 4 (00:30):
Yeah, Jonathan Brown days and Acamannus days.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
Yeah, what was what was the bosses? What was the
coach's name?
Speaker 4 (00:39):
Lethal? You know, I still see him. He lives in
my area and I often see him and Faig's the
new coach, just just hanging out chatting with their wives.
They'll go out to dinner and things like that. So
they obviously still talk about the footing and stuff like that. Well,
I wonder if they do talk about footy at all.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Probably not. Michael Vosso I had lots of stories. I
had lots to do with him in the prime of
his career, did a really really kind man. He does
a lot of charity and a lot of philanthropic stuff. Undetected.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
Well, and I think did he this is stretching my memory.
He became coach of the Lions or assistant coach, I
think yeah, and it didn't work out, it was no good. Well,
I think they made him coach too early. He wasn't ready.
And now he's got a Carlton and he is ready.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
Nailing it, although they are taking on the Lions this weekend.
Oh yeah, okay, so maybe can you not be as ready?
Speaker 4 (01:29):
I know, yes, yes, yeah. They finished eighth and on
the ladder Carlton and Lions finished fifth, so we should
be favorites to win the Lions. But anyway, he turns
out he's also a hero. Okay, let's talk about a half time.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
You're listening to the Robin and Kid podcast.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
Robin and Kip in the morning, ask a lawyer, Anna High,
Good morning, Good morning, Annah.
Speaker 4 (02:02):
So you've got a burning question for our lawyer.
Speaker 6 (02:05):
Yes, so, me and my husband was working in a
place where the owners started to taking advantage to us
and we ended up having ten thousand dollars less in
our packet. They always asked us to buy stuff for them,
and at the beginning they paid back every sing and
(02:28):
some reason later on. They always said, oh, we're going
to get bankrupt, and except that they can't pay it back.
And when I tried to go to a law you heard,
we found out it will cost pretty muchic the same
months to just hire a lawyer and go after this.
And yeah, we don't really know what's to do.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
So they had you pay for work things out of
your account, is that right?
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (02:54):
And about and ten thousand dollars tod hear that?
Speaker 7 (02:57):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (02:58):
Okay in two years? Right?
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Okay? So what sort of I mean without giving specific
details because we don't want to do that, but what
sort of business were you in?
Speaker 6 (03:07):
It's a pump food industry.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
Okay, okay, so hospitality and you and your husband worked
there together.
Speaker 7 (03:16):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (03:17):
Was it a family run business?
Speaker 6 (03:19):
I think so quite?
Speaker 4 (03:22):
And are they still solvent? Are they still there? Yeah?
Speaker 6 (03:25):
Okay, so they're still active and very active and in
this stitution that money back.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
Of course.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
I mean times are tough, mate, and if it's your money,
it's your money. What happened when you asked them for
it back?
Speaker 6 (03:40):
They had to excuse it or later later because they
don't have money at the moment, or oh they can't
because the business not going that well, but I think
if they still open, we shouldn't be that bad.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
So that you've got proof that they have agreed that
they own you the money.
Speaker 6 (03:59):
We have all the bank statement, and because we're living
in different area, our grocery shopping is around the where
we live, and the grocery stuff one they needed us
to buy it's in this area. Is the business obviously
not going to buy me products? Nine hundred dollars and puff?
Speaker 4 (04:23):
Right? Yeah, okay, so you're obviously buying like commercial quantities
of meat for example, yes, right, not for at home. Okay, Well,
let's talk to our lawyer and find out whether there's
anything you can do to try and get that ten
thousand dollars back.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Yeah, because ten k would certainly be eaten up with
legal fees pretty quickly.
Speaker 4 (04:42):
Yeah, I'm guessing, yeah, I'm not. Yes, Yeah, all right,
let's find out. Well, two for the price and one
this morning, Robin. We've got two lawyers from Oromo Law
to take care of this question from Manna. We both
got we've got both Kylie and Brett in the studio
with us. So Anna, we heard your question just a
few minutes ago, but could you just quickly tell Brett
(05:05):
and Carly your story again.
Speaker 6 (05:08):
Yes, So the business asked us to buy food products
for them, and we ended up in two years ten
thousand dollars less in out pocket, and we have bank
statements and proof about these purchases, and just try to
find out how we can get back the money from
(05:28):
them if it's possible.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
Yeah. So Anna and her husband working for a company,
they kept getting them to pay for stock and other
things like that, and over two years it's ten thousand
dollars worth and they're out of pocket and they're no
longer being reimbursed.
Speaker 8 (05:43):
Did your employers tell you that they would refund you
the money that you'd spent Anna, Yes.
Speaker 6 (05:50):
And at the beginning they paid back some of them,
and pleted on they had the excuses why they can't pay.
Speaker 8 (05:58):
And how many times did you purchase stock for the
business four hundred.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
Hundreds even though they weren't repaying.
Speaker 6 (06:06):
Yes, because they also expected certain things for the business
to get done, and it was kind of forced. They said,
oh yeah, go out, go out buy it, and then
we're going to be paying back. We got the promises
and then nothing happened.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
And have you approached the business about getting a refund
of the money.
Speaker 6 (06:26):
Yes, we went face to face talking with them, even
if I'm like my husband also went through some text
messages or emails to ask what's going on, what's going
to happen, and then they said, oh, the business not
going well, so they can to really pay it back.
Speaker 5 (06:46):
I think the first step would be to do a
letter of demand. What that means is you would set
out the bank statements and the receipts showing the money
that you've paid for on behalf of the business in
relation to the stock that you've purchased for them, and
then subject to what the outcome of that is. You
then might be looking at a q CAT application for
(07:08):
a debt recovery. It's the Queensland Civil Administrative Tribunal and
they deal with small claims claims like this.
Speaker 4 (07:18):
So that letter the first letter, what would that likely cost?
Speaker 8 (07:23):
Lawyers charged by the hour? Right a competent lawyer, it
shouldn't take them any more than an hour to sort
of prepare a letter to an as EX employer. And
as Kylie said, it's a letter of demand, it's not
a letter of request. So the letter would clearly state
that we here by demand that you pay Anna ten
thousand dollars or the or else or yes or else
(07:47):
basically or further proceedings may follow something like that. Be
sort of a little bit vague about it because but yeah,
it would then become a debt recovery matter. You should
be able to get it done. What do you think, Kylie?
Probably less than one thousand dollars to.
Speaker 4 (08:05):
Get the letter together? Okay?
Speaker 3 (08:07):
And have you tried anything like that?
Speaker 4 (08:09):
No?
Speaker 6 (08:09):
I don't have that.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
So can you go through Queensain Legal? Like, there's organizations
that can help.
Speaker 8 (08:18):
There are community legal centers, yes on catch Legal. And
this is a very simple, straightforward matter. As I say,
if Anna were to tell a community legal center what
had happened, they should be able to write a fairly
simple letter of demand.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
And does that help you? Do you feel like that's
going to give you a path forward?
Speaker 6 (08:39):
Maybe? I'm not sure. I give it a try.
Speaker 4 (08:42):
What it sounds like? The good news is it sounds
like you do have legal grounds, Like it sounds like
the evidence that you have and the story you've told us.
You know the laws on your side. So just whether
where you go with it from here is up to you.
But it sounds like the laws on your side at least, Anna.
Speaker 6 (08:58):
Thank you, Yes, definitely going to give a try.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
Are you okay, mate? It doesn't sound like I mean.
I wish we could say absolutely this is cut and
dry and it's all good, But I don't know that
that ever is the case with lawyers.
Speaker 6 (09:11):
Oh, thank you, I'm good, You're good, okay, great.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
Thank you, Thanks Ada, thank you.
Speaker 6 (09:18):
A good day.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
We just had our lawyers in from RMO Lord.
Speaker 7 (09:22):
Now.
Speaker 4 (09:22):
They are your trusted partner in local partner in law
for over fifty years www dot romolaw dot com dot au.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
They're kind of extraordinary and we had two of them,
Kindly Sure and Brett Trafford, who were trying to help Anna.
Anna has an issue. Her and her husband worked for
a small business and paid ten k out of their
own wallet and now have not been paid back. So
that the guys are still here with us, and they
asked us to get Anna back on the line.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
Hey Anna, we got you there again.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
Yep, we've got some good news mate, really yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
Hi Hi.
Speaker 8 (09:55):
And look, after hearing your story, I thought, look, if
you don't mind, I'd look like to give you a
call and get the details from you, and look, we'd
be happy to arrange for a letter to be sent.
We won't charge you for that. And so basically, yeah,
if we can put a little bit of sometimes a
little bit of pressure applied in the right way can
(10:16):
get a good result. So either you can give your
details to us through the station or something like that.
But we'll talk soon, Anna, and I'd like to be
able to help you with this.
Speaker 6 (10:27):
Thank you so much, will.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
Oh mate, Well, please let us know what happens. Hey,
it's a big deal, right this ten round is going
to make a big difference to you. You no, look,
that's what we were trying to help as much as
we can, and now these guys are going to help
(10:50):
you too.
Speaker 8 (10:51):
Don't worry about it, Anna, we'll chase this up.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
It's okay. It's kind of scary looking, so you know
when he gets on, when he gets up, they're unready
to go. Hopefully we'll get some get some results for you.

You have to borrow buck the Bronco to get home.

It just never ends people inviting me out of town.

Speaker 3 (15:55):
River Fire is free.
Speaker 9 (15:57):
It's one of the free.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
Things we can do free. Robin it is free? Has
it not free? Isn't public transport free into the city?
Speaker 5 (16:04):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (16:05):
Is it anyway?
Speaker 3 (16:06):
Okay, fifty cents? There you go? What county your rant
with my own?
Speaker 4 (16:10):
My friend?
Speaker 9 (16:11):
Are you? She's pro riverfire?
Speaker 2 (16:13):
Okay?
Speaker 9 (16:14):
Should be lighting up at this stage.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
I'd imagine thirty one oh six fives our number? Ifever
you want to get involved with the show, Natalie out
of Petrie your thoughts?
Speaker 13 (16:22):
Hi, Yeah, I agree with mel. I don't like Riverfire either.
You're really lucky that your dog can take xanax because
my dog's been prescribed xanx. There's actually an upper for
her instead of a downer because she has ADHD. She
can't take any of the anti anxiety medications because they
all make her absolutely loopy. I think that fireworks in
(16:42):
general are just a waste of money and time and
fire just yeah, it's just too much.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
Oh my goodness, what the hell?
Speaker 3 (16:49):
Few people? It's a free event put on the city
to celebrate the Brisbane Festival and you guys are just winging.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
You don't even have to pay.
Speaker 11 (16:59):
You What they should do, Robin, use those fireworks to
blow up the Gingerly Bridge and start against.
Speaker 4 (17:04):
Okay, I'm still stunned that your dog has ADHD. We
do you want to talk first world problems? You reckon?
There's any dogs in the Sudan that have ADHD?
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Is she Natalie?
Speaker 13 (17:20):
She's a border college. She's nearly fifteen, and she is
so neurotic of fireworks, even the storms and anything that
makes a loud noise and she just cannot be prescribed
any down as they all make a ghost to skip show.
Speaker 11 (17:34):
She would have had a hard time in high school
without ADHD. It's difficult to concentrate.
Speaker 4 (17:38):
But she's a dog, that's right.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
Wake up with Robin and kid?
Speaker 4 (17:53):
Do that? Yes, So on the back of the echo
the Dagwood Dog guy, we decided we could take the
to you to your school. We had hundreds of schools
registered for this and.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
The Lucky School with Saint John's Viani School their primary
school out in Manly Way and we have got Carmel
who's the acting principal. Hello Carmel, good morning to you.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
An exciting morning.
Speaker 4 (18:17):
Yes, yes it is, so you're getting all prepped for tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
We are the children excited and we've had to walk
around the school and work trying to work out where
the dad Wood Dog band should go. Yeah, and no,
we're excited for tomorrow now because.
Speaker 4 (18:33):
You know, we're also not only are we doing our
entire show from the school tomorrow, but also Cory Oats
from the Broncos is coming with us. He's going to
be down there for an hour at least. So have
we got any ideas of what we can do with
Corey because obviously Corey is an elite athlete? Like, what
are the kids into? What are the sports that your
school's famous for.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
We're into lots of sports at the moment. We play
all sports have tends for you know, all the regular
sports that grade cause absolutely crazy for four square. But
recently they've just been on camp and they were introduced
to a new game.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
Called Gagaball's Gargable.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
Yeah it sounds silly, doesn't it. Car Go ball. Well,
when they were on camp, there was a little circular
court that you play it in, but we don't have
that here at school. They're on to me to try
and build some one and make one of course, of course,
but what they've been doing is playing is Gargable up
against the wall. From watching it, I think it's a
(19:33):
bit like squash, but you play it with a bigger ball. Okay,
there's all sorts of rules that I don't understand. It
are all over it.
Speaker 4 (19:40):
Still handball. You don't need rackets.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
No, no handball. It's like a version of handball. So
they've just shifted from the square, the four square to
their gaga against the wall.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
Okay, Well Coreotes is great with the ball. I mean,
that's what he does for a living, is broncos. So
do you reckon he could challenge a couple? Is it
grade four or all was doing for other experts?
Speaker 4 (20:03):
They're the experts.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
They're slowly sharing that with other year levels. But the
only challenge Cory might have is, you know, he's got
to get down a bit low.
Speaker 4 (20:13):
Yes he is like sixteen or that might be funny
to work quite a disadvantage.
Speaker 3 (20:19):
And recording then put on our social media. So all
of that will happen tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
Yes it's not. There's always four square that you're not
all over it.
Speaker 4 (20:27):
Yeah, just go back to his good old hand. Okay,
all right, well we'll see you tomorrow morning, looking forward
to this car. See tomorrow morning, bright and early. Yes,
imagine if Corey induces himself playing ga.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
Do not say that a way to wrap industry is
nearly the season is nearly over. Don't do that.
Speaker 4 (20:44):
What a way to wrap up your career. Played for
Australia Queensland. Gaga ball brought him down. It wasn't for
you more moy.
Speaker 3 (20:51):
It was a great champion.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Gagab the Robin and Chi podcast Robin and Kibbs. Dad
brags a.
Speaker 4 (21:06):
Thousand bucks every day to spend at Soak bath House.
Speaker 3 (21:10):
So this is the chance for you to tell us
that one thing that your dad is extraordinary at Melissa
of Kalanga, tell us about your dad.
Speaker 14 (21:20):
So, my dad growing up is a big Elba fan,
always has been. He's run restaurants for his life and
he's done Elba shows that have proven to be very popular.
Speaker 1 (21:33):
Bought himself Elba suit, steel.
Speaker 14 (21:35):
Dies his hair black.
Speaker 4 (21:37):
So when he's running the restaurant, would he be like,

out into song.
Speaker 3 (21:44):
Well, he was the head chef, head chef and then they.

Speaker 2 (24:12):
AU wake Up with Robin and Kid.
Speaker 4 (24:19):
Yes, so we were talking about Michael Voss at the
start of the podcast, who used to play for the
Lines is now the coach of Carton So this would
have been huge news in Melbourne. He was at a
cafe at his local cafe in Hawthorne, Melbourne, Hawthorne and
a car has flipped. A stolen car has flipped, like
(24:40):
right outside. Yeah, so drive them like idiots obviously, flipped
out on the curb, out out in front, and two
guys have emerged from the car and tried to flee
on foot, chased him down. Well, he can run fast
and you can still got the skills. Chased him down
and performed a citizen's arrest.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
Both of them.
Speaker 4 (24:58):
That's what it's suggesting. How did he arrest too? Other
people must have been with him? WOWOSSI yeah, how cool
is that? I don't think i'd have that. I don't
think i'd have the cohunas well.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
I think this is a point, right, If you're going
to do a citizen's arrest, you must be confident you
can overpower someone.
Speaker 4 (25:13):
Yeah, I would.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
I would not. Well if it was smaller woman, I
might try.
Speaker 4 (25:18):
Or would you gelt over bear a job?
Speaker 3 (25:24):
But like you know, if a kid had done something,
I grabbed them and stuff.
Speaker 4 (25:27):
But what one of them was sixteen years old? A
sixteen year old boy, so so VOSSI would have had
him covered. You would have thought, what do you do?
Speaker 3 (25:34):
Sit on him?
Speaker 4 (25:35):
Yeah? You know, years ago I got in trouble my
little brother. This is a long time ago. Obviously, my
little brother was he would have been maybe five or six,
and he was causing trouble at the at the shops,
and Mum said, you look after your brother, you know,
which is what moms used to do back.
Speaker 3 (25:50):
How much older he?
Speaker 4 (25:51):
I was four years older.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
Okay, so you were ten he was here.
Speaker 4 (25:54):
Yeah, well maybe we're both a little bit younger. But
so there's something around there. And he was going nearly
running in front of traffic. Ooh, and so I got
into the ground and I sat on him, and I said,
this is the way that I'm going to hold him still, Luke,
you remembers, Well, what I remember is this old man
coming after me and going you get off that boy.
(26:16):
You leave that poor little boy alone.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
Do you say that is my little brother who is
going to kill himself in the traffic? You leave me alone?
Speaker 4 (26:23):
I thought I was trying to say, but I think
I just wept because I was getting in trouble from
some old stranger.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
So what happened?
Speaker 4 (26:29):
Mum came and sawed it all out.
Speaker 3 (26:31):
Yeah, well looks alive. It's not the story where Luke
got up right in front of a car and that
was it.
Speaker 4 (26:35):
No, that's right, bloody, say that kid's last you did.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
I'm sure you need to remind him of that.
Speaker 4 (26:39):
Yeah, sure, his spine was never the same, but whatever
you know swings aroundabout.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
You're listening to the Robin and Kid podcast.
Speaker 4 (26:52):
So Father's Day Sunday.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
Yeah, it's on Sunday, first of September.
Speaker 4 (26:55):
Yes, I've got something for Raphael, my five year old
at his day here on the Friday afternoon, the some
type of Father's Day coffee thing.
Speaker 3 (27:03):
Oh good, you're going to that one.
Speaker 4 (27:04):
I'll go to that one. Yes, yes, as.
Speaker 3 (27:06):
Opposed to the graduation. When you want to be a
news anyway, if you want to know what we're talking about,
just go to the podcast.
Speaker 4 (27:12):
He'll want to be Anwe to trust me anyway. So
you were asking me yesterday like what I've got planned
for Father's Day? I think, like we're going to do that,
but I think on Sunday because we've got the baby
at home, like in is what eleven weeks, it's just
too hard, Like sometimes we get to a cafe, but
it's such a drama, such an effort. I think it's
it'd be nicer for Father's Day just to be at home.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
And it's it's it's madness to get bookings. And unless
you've made a booking and then people are scrambling.
Speaker 4 (27:39):
Yeah, yeah, maybe not. Yeah. I think I'm just gonna
I'm just going to cruise. Jim Jefferies, comedian who was
actually just here just he was at the End Center
ten days ago in Brizzi. He has an interesting take
on what he wants for Father's Day.
Speaker 12 (27:50):
Father's Day came around. My girlfriend went, what do you
want for Father's Day? And I went, I don't want anything.
Don't even worry about it. I don't want anything. She goes,
come on, you got to have something. I said, honestly,
I don't want anything, and she goes, come on, and
I went, it's my money. Just don't touch it. Just
need my money alone.
Speaker 4 (28:06):
How hard is this?
Speaker 12 (28:07):
How about for twenty four hours you don't touch my money,
that will be a good.
Speaker 4 (28:11):
Just twenty four hours, don't touch my money.
Speaker 3 (28:13):
That's hard. Something we could question why she's touching his
money the rest of the time.
Speaker 4 (28:20):
Sure, he's made a lot of money doing his stand.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
Up, okay, and clearly she knows his bank against so
that's on him.
Speaker 4 (28:26):
That's a lovely father's day. It's a lovely Father's Day request.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
What actually is it that you want?
Speaker 4 (28:33):
I mean, I kind of do agree with that like
the idea of just don't spend, don't buy me more crap.
I've got everything I need. Oh okay, I don't need
any more crap. And Dad, I actually I bought something
for Dad, my dad, because they were here for the
weekend helping out with RAF and we're not going to
see him next weekend for Father's Day. So I got
him some ug boots. Oh yeah, because he's always cold.
Speaker 7 (28:53):
Dad.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
Okay, we're going in to summer and it's going to
be thirty one, but.
Speaker 4 (28:57):
Sure light offense. When I bought them, it was twenty. Great.
Speaker 3 (29:01):
That is fair enough because that was like two weeks ago.
Speaker 4 (29:03):
Yes, and he is. He's always cold. He's very little, Dad,
I reckon. My dad's about fifty five killers. Oh wow. Yeah,
he's a very, very very lean. He's been on heart
med since he was like in his forty so he's
got really thin blood. So he's cold. He's always cold. Yeah,
So I got him. So I got him some uggies
and he put him on and he was very great.
(29:23):
He said, oh, they're probably just a little bit small,
and I said that's right, you know, I said, I
can I can swap out get bigger ones and he said, Look,
to be honest, just can you just all the things
you've been fixing for me lately? That's all I want.
I don't want I actually don't want service.
Speaker 3 (29:37):
Guy. Yes, love language is acts of service.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (29:40):
And he literally took out a towel warmer from the
barber shop. He took a towel warmer out and said,
now this is broken. Can you fix it? Ah, that's
what he wants, and I'm happy to do that. I
feel good about fixing things.
Speaker 3 (29:49):
Well because that's his business. So you're helping him financially
and supporting him and doing something for fun.
Speaker 7 (29:54):
This that's right.
Speaker 4 (29:54):
He said, this will cost me four hundred bucks if
I have for get it fixed. But I know you
can do it because I've done it before. And so
I was like, yeah, okay, cool. See so that's her
Father's Day.
Speaker 3 (30:02):
And I think that's kind of the conversation we all
need to have, like what do you really want? Yeah,
and it's okay for you to say nothing or maybe
just leave me alone.
Speaker 4 (30:11):
Yeah. Oh yeah, that's going on what I would like
on Sunday.
Speaker 3 (30:14):
And I knew that that's why I said it, Like,
you know, you can say, can I just have two hours, Yeah,
to do whatever I want with no one in it.
Speaker 4 (30:23):
Yeah, yeah, that'd be nice, just two hours. I just
go into the TV room, close the door, just watch
Sci Fi Dribble and just no one, no one talking
to me.
Speaker 3 (30:31):
Isn't that hilarious? Because if that was Mother's Day and
they did that to me, I think the one knocking
on the dog going do you miss me?

So Missy Higgins has been touring the country with the
Sound of White tour, which turned into a much bigger
tour than she was expecting.
Speaker 3 (33:01):
She told us, And you've been touring the country has
that been. You're coming towards the end of that.
Speaker 16 (33:07):
Yeah, yeah, we've just finished that. So it was forty shows.
It was massive, biggest tour I've ever done. Just didn't
realize that the Sound of White was as popular as
it was. I think after all this time, I guess
I didn't realize people still wanted to hear those songs
and those songs still meant something to them, which was amazing.
So the show's kind of kept selling out and then
we kept adding more and yeah, they's been really, really special.
Speaker 4 (33:29):
It's almost gone all the way up. Her last tour
has gone all the way up to the next tour,
which is the Second Act tour, which starts in November.

off the lawn on a Day on the Green because
I love it. I'm there all the time, not because
I'm because so comedous. I'm just a part of the
green room. I'm there so often.
Speaker 4 (34:43):
My dad came out, all right, someone's gonna peel Balley
off the lawn again. She's blowing Guys the Robin and
Jit Podcast.
Speaker 3 (34:57):
I know you think this week could just be your
worst nightmare, but honestly, if you were there last night,
I'm talking about the Brisbane Fashion Festival. There's a big
white marquee set up in King George Square. So have
you been walking past on the way to work or whatever.
That's what it's for and last night was just extraordinary.
Over fifteen Olympic swimmers from Paris were either in the
(35:17):
audience or walking the catwalk, and it was all for
dryser Bone, who were clearly one of the Dolphin sponsors,
and they were in the front row. Two of Australia's
most successful Olympic swimmers there was champion backstroker Kaylee McEwan
and three time gold medalist free styler Molly oh Callahan.
So I asked Molly where she keeps the medals?
Speaker 9 (35:40):
So mums kind of hits them away.
Speaker 15 (35:42):
They're currently stucked in like stuffed in socks. So because
I had to ship my boxes, my metal boxes back
chrome a posts fell too big to fit my suitcase.
Speaker 3 (35:53):
There so many of them.
Speaker 15 (35:54):
It's a good thing to have, it's a good thing
to happen. And I think Kaylie was the same. She
had so many and we're kind of like, oh.
Speaker 4 (36:01):
What do we do?
Speaker 15 (36:02):
So I see ship them more home and I was like,
I'll take the medals so then the boxes can come
later to Molly.
Speaker 3 (36:08):
Are you going to go for Brisbane?
Speaker 9 (36:10):
We'll see a fingers cross. I think I've got to
continue loving the sport.
Speaker 15 (36:14):
I think I'll be twenty seven, twenty eight, so I
reckon I shud be around as well.
Speaker 4 (36:20):
They were killed twenty thirty.
Speaker 3 (36:22):
Two, she's only going to be twenty seven. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (36:24):
In swimming parlances though, that's pretty old, isn't it like this?
Speaker 3 (36:27):
They're all kids, I know, but there were people winning
medals and stuff from their late twenties early thirties at Paris.
Speaker 4 (36:33):
If you can handle the bottom of swimming laps that
many laps every day for the next eight years.
Speaker 3 (36:38):
See, you don't get it, right.
Speaker 4 (36:40):
I don't get it. I don't. I'm not.
Speaker 3 (36:42):
I mean, I'm not as Olympic swimmer, but I swim
by choice at least four times a week.
Speaker 4 (36:47):
Yeah, I love it.
Speaker 3 (36:48):
It's my meditative state. Like no one. No one can
talk to me. I can get into my head, I
can think things.
Speaker 4 (36:55):
But I remember Thorpey saying it's really boring, Like that's
why they said, why did you retire? It's really boring?
Speaker 3 (37:01):
Well, I think because you start so young, like you
started twelve thirteen, so you don't know any better, yes,
and then after like twenty two to twenty three, you're like, oh,
there's a different live out there.
Speaker 4 (37:10):
The friends are going out on a Friday night. You're
just cutting laps.
Speaker 3 (37:13):
But I want to let you hear this because this
is quite an extraordinary story on the runway last night
in Amazing Gold Togs, and I've seen that it is
the number one story on daily mail right around the country.
With Shana jack Now, she won two gold medals at
Paris and her stories are one of the greatest comebacks
of any athlete. In twenty nineteen, she received a two
(37:35):
year doping band for taking a protein powder with a
banned substance in it. She fought back and Paris was
absolutely one of her greatest moments. So I started by
asking her what it meant to her.
Speaker 7 (37:47):
To be there.
Speaker 17 (37:49):
I've got to prove to people that I don't give up,
and I've got to prove to people that I didn't
do something like this and would never do something like
this to myself, my family, my Beyonce, my country and
my sport. And said to me on Essays Australia, why
did I start in the first place? And I said
because I loved the feeling of being in the water.
And he said, well, why wouldn't you go back? You know,
I don't swim for the metals. I don't swim for
(38:10):
the world records. I don't swim for those things. They
are the bonuses that come with.
Speaker 9 (38:13):
What I love to do.
Speaker 3 (38:15):
But mate, you got a gold medal.
Speaker 9 (38:17):
I know I do hoping. It's really hit me.
Speaker 17 (38:20):
For me, I remember that moment and how amazing that moment.
Failed to look up and see seventeen thousand people but
in particular.
Speaker 9 (38:26):
My parents and my fiance in the stands. That to
me was the most important part.
Speaker 3 (38:32):
So cool, yeah, so cool and so humble. I mean
a third of our medals from Paris were from the swimmers.
Speaker 4 (38:39):
Yeah, and I bet you they look great on that
when they were modeling.
Speaker 3 (38:42):
Yeah, seriously, you can check out my socials because I've
posted a whole parle of photos, but also the Daily Mail.
I mean they look they're so physically fit, yes, you
know they and the women and triangle.
Speaker 4 (38:53):
Yeah, it's the perfect.
Speaker 3 (38:56):
On those legs, the power in those butts. Yeah, I mean,
in my goodness, they look fantastic in the gold togs.
But it was it was such a cool night. It
kicks off. We've still got two more parades tonight and
tomorrow night. There's a lunch at Hanworth House today. There's
so many exciting things and you'll get to live it
through me.
Speaker 4 (39:13):
Yes, I'm so happy for you to take that for
the team. Thank you.
Speaker 2 (39:18):
Wake Up with Robin and Kid.
Speaker 4 (39:23):
The Paris twenty twenty four Paralympics begin Thursday on Channel
nine and four time paralympian who's been representing Australia since
two thousand and one now commentating will chair rugby in
Paris Is Ryan Scott. Hey, Ryan, Hey, Hey, Goaran. For
the uninitiated, will chair rugby? How does it actually work?
What are the rules?
Speaker 7 (39:43):
Yeah? Look, it is extremely different. It's definitely our own
code of rugby. It's originally called Myrdible. We're designed for
people who didn't have the ability to play woo chair basketball.
So it was invented by some Canadians who had some
impairment in upperly and lower limbs. So they were just
throwing a volleyball round and slamming into each other on
(40:04):
a basketball court and being Canadians. It's got elements of
ice hockey where you're allowed to hit off the ball.
It's the American grid iron where you set blocks and screens.
There is a tryline at the end, and similar to basketball,
you know, we're in a basketball court. It's similar to
thousy rules where you've got to bounce all pass once
every ten seconds. Right, You've got forty seconds in total
(40:25):
to score. So it's extremely fast paced score like a game.
You're getting up to like fifty to sixty points each
within or eight minute quarters and the clock stop, so
guys are getting from one end to the court to
the other pretty quickly. It's very technical once you get
past everybody, you know, cleaning each other up and slamming
into each other. Technical that's what that's what brings brings
(40:50):
people in, and then the technical side of things. You
start to really appreciate the game even on a higher level.
Speaker 4 (40:56):
When you're working from in a commentary role. Right like
when a new player takes the court, for example, do
you ever go into past injuries or anything like that
or is it just about their record as a paralympian?
What's the general sort of rules? What are the faux pas?
With that?
Speaker 7 (41:13):
Most of the guys have shared their story. There was
a great documentary come out on the Steelers recently Forged
in Steel, which got behind their their personal stories but
also their journey towards Paris, and I think people really
like it. They like to see the backstory and we
like to.
Speaker 3 (41:29):
Get emotionally involved. But Ryan, like, you have five World Championships,
You've been to four Para Olympic Games, winning one World
champ silver and bronze, and two Paralympic gold medals and
one silver. You are a truly extraordinary athlete. So I mean,
if you don't mind, can you tell us how you
ended up in a wheelchair.
Speaker 7 (41:50):
Yeah, so while I was sixteen and we were heading
to a pub for a friend's birthday and the driver
was just driving too fast on the wet road. He
lost control, We rolled over and tree, and then when
we hit that tree, the roof came down, hit me
on my head, crushed me, and I broke my neck
at c five six and seven. So I have spinal
(42:11):
cord injuries and I'm a quadriplegic, so I have a
limited function in my arms and I'm paralyzed from my
chest down.
Speaker 3 (42:19):
It's quite extraordinary then, that you've gone on to do
all these amazing things. I mean, when you think about
that sport and every single person on the court, what
do you want Australians to see when we're watching you?
Speaker 7 (42:34):
They're just a great group of guys. Everybody has overcome something.
There's been moments in our lives where you just, I
guess you didn't know what your life was going to
look like. And you'll see that emotion from the friends
and the family that have traveled over there. They've sat
by their hospital bedsides and probably watched them and thought,
what is his life going to look like at this
point or her life and so many unanswered questions. And
(42:56):
then to see them in the highest level competing for
their country and you know, being one of the most
successful teams ever to play which air rugby, It's going
to be so much pride. And I think that's the
main thing is to see them as athletes as well.
They train so hard. It's not even just training, its recovery,
its preparation, it's diet. They do everything that our able
(43:20):
bodied athletes are doing. And yeah, just get behind them.
I think that's what we really want is you know,
I know there's some late nights and early mornings, but that's.
Speaker 3 (43:29):
Fine for breakfast radio announces.
Speaker 4 (43:31):
Don't you worry about.
Speaker 7 (43:32):
That for us? Exactly?
Speaker 3 (43:35):
Yeah, Ryan, Can I ask you about being in the
Olympic village, Is it like it is for the able
bodied athletes. I mean we were talking to a number
of them during the games and apparently there were three
hundred thousand condoms.
Speaker 7 (43:48):
It was a fondom vending machine in the dining hall
in Rio. But yeah's some action goes on. I think
most of the rugby guys have always been checked up. Unfortunately,
we've always been the most disciplined team untunately.
Speaker 4 (44:05):
Yes, thanks mate, by.
Speaker 7 (44:08):
Way, thank you.
Speaker 2 (44:11):
Wake up with Robin and Kid
It's Robin and Keith for Breakfast.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
Breaking Break, But you're listening to the Robin and Kick podcast.
Speaker 3 (00:11):
Break Great, Good Day.
Speaker 4 (00:14):
It's Robin Kip on demand the podcast. I've don't talk
about a story at halftime, Rob that I think in
Melbourne this would have been the biggest news ever. Yeah,
what is that? It's about Vossi who actually became a
very famous AFL player here at the Lions.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
He was at the time when the Lions won three.
Speaker 5 (00:30):
In a row.
Speaker 4 (00:30):
Yeah, Jonathan Brown days and Acamannus days.
Speaker 3 (00:33):
Yeah, what was what was the bosses? What was the
coach's name?
Speaker 4 (00:39):
Lethal? You know, I still see him. He lives in
my area and I often see him and Faig's the
new coach, just just hanging out chatting with their wives.
They'll go out to dinner and things like that. So
they obviously still talk about the footing and stuff like that. Well,
I wonder if they do talk about footy at all.
Speaker 3 (00:55):
Probably not. Michael Vosso I had lots of stories. I
had lots to do with him in the prime of
his career, did a really really kind man. He does
a lot of charity and a lot of philanthropic stuff. Undetected.
Speaker 4 (01:08):
Well, and I think did he this is stretching my memory.
He became coach of the Lions or assistant coach, I
think yeah, and it didn't work out, it was no good. Well,
I think they made him coach too early. He wasn't ready.
And now he's got a Carlton and he is ready.
Speaker 3 (01:23):
Nailing it, although they are taking on the Lions this weekend.
Oh yeah, okay, so maybe can you not be as ready?
Speaker 4 (01:29):
I know, yes, yes, yeah. They finished eighth and on
the ladder Carlton and Lions finished fifth, so we should
be favorites to win the Lions. But anyway, he turns
out he's also a hero. Okay, let's talk about a half time.
Speaker 2 (01:42):
You're listening to the Robin and Kid podcast.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
Robin and Kip in the morning, ask a lawyer, Anna High,
Good morning, Good morning, Annah.
Speaker 4 (02:02):
So you've got a burning question for our lawyer.
Speaker 6 (02:05):
Yes, so, me and my husband was working in a
place where the owners started to taking advantage to us
and we ended up having ten thousand dollars less in
our packet. They always asked us to buy stuff for them,
and at the beginning they paid back every sing and
(02:28):
some reason later on. They always said, oh, we're going
to get bankrupt, and except that they can't pay it back.
And when I tried to go to a law you heard,
we found out it will cost pretty muchic the same
months to just hire a lawyer and go after this.
And yeah, we don't really know what's to do.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
So they had you pay for work things out of
your account, is that right?
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (02:54):
And about and ten thousand dollars tod hear that?
Speaker 7 (02:57):
Yes?
Speaker 4 (02:58):
Okay in two years? Right?
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Okay? So what sort of I mean without giving specific
details because we don't want to do that, but what
sort of business were you in?
Speaker 6 (03:07):
It's a pump food industry.
Speaker 3 (03:10):
Okay, okay, so hospitality and you and your husband worked
there together.
Speaker 7 (03:16):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (03:17):
Was it a family run business?
Speaker 6 (03:19):
I think so quite?
Speaker 4 (03:22):
And are they still solvent? Are they still there? Yeah?
Speaker 6 (03:25):
Okay, so they're still active and very active and in
this stitution that money back.
Speaker 4 (03:33):
Of course.
Speaker 3 (03:33):
I mean times are tough, mate, and if it's your money,
it's your money. What happened when you asked them for
it back?
Speaker 6 (03:40):
They had to excuse it or later later because they
don't have money at the moment, or oh they can't
because the business not going that well, but I think
if they still open, we shouldn't be that bad.
Speaker 3 (03:53):
So that you've got proof that they have agreed that
they own you the money.
Speaker 6 (03:59):
We have all the bank statement, and because we're living
in different area, our grocery shopping is around the where
we live, and the grocery stuff one they needed us
to buy it's in this area. Is the business obviously
not going to buy me products? Nine hundred dollars and puff?
Speaker 4 (04:23):
Right? Yeah, okay, so you're obviously buying like commercial quantities
of meat for example, yes, right, not for at home. Okay, Well,
let's talk to our lawyer and find out whether there's
anything you can do to try and get that ten
thousand dollars back.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Yeah, because ten k would certainly be eaten up with
legal fees pretty quickly.
Speaker 4 (04:42):
Yeah, I'm guessing, yeah, I'm not. Yes, Yeah, all right,
let's find out. Well, two for the price and one
this morning, Robin. We've got two lawyers from Oromo Law
to take care of this question from Manna. We both
got we've got both Kylie and Brett in the studio
with us. So Anna, we heard your question just a
few minutes ago, but could you just quickly tell Brett
(05:05):
and Carly your story again.
Speaker 6 (05:08):
Yes, So the business asked us to buy food products
for them, and we ended up in two years ten
thousand dollars less in out pocket, and we have bank
statements and proof about these purchases, and just try to
find out how we can get back the money from
(05:28):
them if it's possible.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
Yeah. So Anna and her husband working for a company,
they kept getting them to pay for stock and other
things like that, and over two years it's ten thousand
dollars worth and they're out of pocket and they're no
longer being reimbursed.
Speaker 8 (05:43):
Did your employers tell you that they would refund you
the money that you'd spent Anna, Yes.
Speaker 6 (05:50):
And at the beginning they paid back some of them,
and pleted on they had the excuses why they can't pay.
Speaker 8 (05:58):
And how many times did you purchase stock for the
business four hundred.
Speaker 3 (06:03):
Hundreds even though they weren't repaying.
Speaker 6 (06:06):
Yes, because they also expected certain things for the business
to get done, and it was kind of forced. They said,
oh yeah, go out, go out buy it, and then
we're going to be paying back. We got the promises
and then nothing happened.
Speaker 5 (06:22):
And have you approached the business about getting a refund
of the money.
Speaker 6 (06:26):
Yes, we went face to face talking with them, even
if I'm like my husband also went through some text
messages or emails to ask what's going on, what's going
to happen, and then they said, oh, the business not
going well, so they can to really pay it back.
Speaker 5 (06:46):
I think the first step would be to do a
letter of demand. What that means is you would set
out the bank statements and the receipts showing the money
that you've paid for on behalf of the business in
relation to the stock that you've purchased for them, and
then subject to what the outcome of that is. You
then might be looking at a q CAT application for
(07:08):
a debt recovery. It's the Queensland Civil Administrative Tribunal and
they deal with small claims claims like this.
Speaker 4 (07:18):
So that letter the first letter, what would that likely cost?
Speaker 8 (07:23):
Lawyers charged by the hour? Right a competent lawyer, it
shouldn't take them any more than an hour to sort
of prepare a letter to an as EX employer. And
as Kylie said, it's a letter of demand, it's not
a letter of request. So the letter would clearly state
that we here by demand that you pay Anna ten
thousand dollars or the or else or yes or else
(07:47):
basically or further proceedings may follow something like that. Be
sort of a little bit vague about it because but yeah,
it would then become a debt recovery matter. You should
be able to get it done. What do you think, Kylie?
Probably less than one thousand dollars to.
Speaker 4 (08:05):
Get the letter together? Okay?
Speaker 3 (08:07):
And have you tried anything like that?
Speaker 4 (08:09):
No?
Speaker 6 (08:09):
I don't have that.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
So can you go through Queensain Legal? Like, there's organizations
that can help.
Speaker 8 (08:18):
There are community legal centers, yes on catch Legal. And
this is a very simple, straightforward matter. As I say,
if Anna were to tell a community legal center what
had happened, they should be able to write a fairly
simple letter of demand.
Speaker 3 (08:35):
And does that help you? Do you feel like that's
going to give you a path forward?
Speaker 6 (08:39):
Maybe? I'm not sure. I give it a try.
Speaker 4 (08:42):
What it sounds like? The good news is it sounds
like you do have legal grounds, Like it sounds like
the evidence that you have and the story you've told us.
You know the laws on your side. So just whether
where you go with it from here is up to you.
But it sounds like the laws on your side at least, Anna.
Speaker 6 (08:58):
Thank you, Yes, definitely going to give a try.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
Are you okay, mate? It doesn't sound like I mean.
I wish we could say absolutely this is cut and
dry and it's all good, But I don't know that
that ever is the case with lawyers.
Speaker 6 (09:11):
Oh, thank you, I'm good, You're good, okay, great.
Speaker 4 (09:15):
Thank you, Thanks Ada, thank you.
Speaker 6 (09:18):
A good day.
Speaker 4 (09:19):
We just had our lawyers in from RMO Lord.
Speaker 7 (09:22):
Now.
Speaker 4 (09:22):
They are your trusted partner in local partner in law
for over fifty years www dot romolaw dot com dot au.
Speaker 3 (09:30):
They're kind of extraordinary and we had two of them,
Kindly Sure and Brett Trafford, who were trying to help Anna.
Anna has an issue. Her and her husband worked for
a small business and paid ten k out of their
own wallet and now have not been paid back. So
that the guys are still here with us, and they
asked us to get Anna back on the line.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
Hey Anna, we got you there again.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
Yep, we've got some good news mate, really yeah.
Speaker 2 (09:55):
Hi Hi.
Speaker 8 (09:55):
And look, after hearing your story, I thought, look, if
you don't mind, I'd look like to give you a
call and get the details from you, and look, we'd
be happy to arrange for a letter to be sent.
We won't charge you for that. And so basically, yeah,
if we can put a little bit of sometimes a
little bit of pressure applied in the right way can
(10:16):
get a good result. So either you can give your
details to us through the station or something like that.
But we'll talk soon, Anna, and I'd like to be
able to help you with this.
Speaker 6 (10:27):
Thank you so much, will.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
Oh mate, Well, please let us know what happens. Hey,
it's a big deal, right this ten round is going
to make a big difference to you. You no, look,
that's what we were trying to help as much as
we can, and now these guys are going to help
(10:50):
you too.
Speaker 8 (10:51):
Don't worry about it, Anna, we'll chase this up.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
It's okay. It's kind of scary looking, so you know
when he gets on, when he gets up, they're unready
to go. Hopefully we'll get some get some results for you.

You have to borrow buck the Bronco to get home.
Speaker 9 (15:28):

Speaker 11 (15:47):
There's the Eck and there's River Fire, and there's Halloween,

It just never ends people inviting me out of town.
Speaker 9 (15:54):

Speaker 3 (15:55):
River Fire is free.
Speaker 9 (15:57):
It's one of the free.
Speaker 3 (15:58):
Things we can do free. Robin it is free? Has
it not free? Isn't public transport free into the city?
Speaker 5 (16:04):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (16:05):
Is it anyway?
Speaker 3 (16:06):
Okay, fifty cents? There you go? What county your rant
with my own?
Speaker 4 (16:10):
My friend?
Speaker 9 (16:11):
Are you? She's pro riverfire?
Speaker 2 (16:13):
Okay?
Speaker 9 (16:14):
Should be lighting up at this stage.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
I'd imagine thirty one oh six fives our number? Ifever
you want to get involved with the show, Natalie out
of Petrie your thoughts?
Speaker 13 (16:22):
Hi, Yeah, I agree with mel. I don't like Riverfire either.
You're really lucky that your dog can take xanax because
my dog's been prescribed xanx. There's actually an upper for
her instead of a downer because she has ADHD. She
can't take any of the anti anxiety medications because they
all make her absolutely loopy. I think that fireworks in
(16:42):
general are just a waste of money and time and
fire just yeah, it's just too much.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
Oh my goodness, what the hell?
Speaker 3 (16:49):
Few people? It's a free event put on the city
to celebrate the Brisbane Festival and you guys are just winging.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
You don't even have to pay.
Speaker 11 (16:59):
You What they should do, Robin, use those fireworks to
blow up the Gingerly Bridge and start against.
Speaker 4 (17:04):
Okay, I'm still stunned that your dog has ADHD. We
do you want to talk first world problems? You reckon?
There's any dogs in the Sudan that have ADHD?
Speaker 3 (17:18):
Is she Natalie?
Speaker 13 (17:20):
She's a border college. She's nearly fifteen, and she is
so neurotic of fireworks, even the storms and anything that
makes a loud noise and she just cannot be prescribed
any down as they all make a ghost to skip show.
Speaker 11 (17:34):
She would have had a hard time in high school
without ADHD. It's difficult to concentrate.
Speaker 4 (17:38):
But she's a dog, that's right.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
Wake up with Robin and kid?
Speaker 4 (17:53):
Do that? Yes, So on the back of the echo
the Dagwood Dog guy, we decided we could take the
to you to your school. We had hundreds of schools
registered for this and.
Speaker 3 (18:04):
The Lucky School with Saint John's Viani School their primary
school out in Manly Way and we have got Carmel
who's the acting principal. Hello Carmel, good morning to you.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
An exciting morning.
Speaker 4 (18:17):
Yes, yes it is, so you're getting all prepped for tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (18:20):
We are the children excited and we've had to walk
around the school and work trying to work out where
the dad Wood Dog band should go. Yeah, and no,
we're excited for tomorrow now because.
Speaker 4 (18:33):
You know, we're also not only are we doing our
entire show from the school tomorrow, but also Cory Oats
from the Broncos is coming with us. He's going to
be down there for an hour at least. So have
we got any ideas of what we can do with
Corey because obviously Corey is an elite athlete? Like, what
are the kids into? What are the sports that your
school's famous for.
Speaker 1 (18:52):
We're into lots of sports at the moment. We play
all sports have tends for you know, all the regular
sports that grade cause absolutely crazy for four square. But
recently they've just been on camp and they were introduced
to a new game.
Speaker 3 (19:08):
Called Gagaball's Gargable.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
Yeah it sounds silly, doesn't it. Car Go ball. Well,
when they were on camp, there was a little circular
court that you play it in, but we don't have
that here at school. They're on to me to try
and build some one and make one of course, of course,
but what they've been doing is playing is Gargable up
against the wall. From watching it, I think it's a
(19:33):
bit like squash, but you play it with a bigger ball. Okay,
there's all sorts of rules that I don't understand. It
are all over it.
Speaker 4 (19:40):
Still handball. You don't need rackets.
Speaker 1 (19:42):
No, no handball. It's like a version of handball. So
they've just shifted from the square, the four square to
their gaga against the wall.
Speaker 3 (19:50):
Okay, Well Coreotes is great with the ball. I mean,
that's what he does for a living, is broncos. So
do you reckon he could challenge a couple? Is it
grade four or all was doing for other experts?
Speaker 4 (20:03):
They're the experts.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
They're slowly sharing that with other year levels. But the
only challenge Cory might have is, you know, he's got
to get down a bit low.
Speaker 4 (20:13):
Yes he is like sixteen or that might be funny
to work quite a disadvantage.
Speaker 3 (20:19):
And recording then put on our social media. So all
of that will happen tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
Yes it's not. There's always four square that you're not
all over it.
Speaker 4 (20:27):
Yeah, just go back to his good old hand. Okay,
all right, well we'll see you tomorrow morning, looking forward
to this car. See tomorrow morning, bright and early. Yes,
imagine if Corey induces himself playing ga.
Speaker 3 (20:38):
Do not say that a way to wrap industry is
nearly the season is nearly over. Don't do that.
Speaker 4 (20:44):
What a way to wrap up your career. Played for
Australia Queensland. Gaga ball brought him down. It wasn't for
you more moy.

com dot.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
AU wake Up with Robin and Kid.
Speaker 4 (24:19):
Yes, so we were talking about Michael Voss at the
start of the podcast, who used to play for the
Lines is now the coach of Carton So this would
have been huge news in Melbourne. He was at a
cafe at his local cafe in Hawthorne, Melbourne, Hawthorne and
a car has flipped. A stolen car has flipped, like
(24:40):
right outside. Yeah, so drive them like idiots obviously, flipped
out on the curb, out out in front, and two
guys have emerged from the car and tried to flee
on foot, chased him down. Well, he can run fast
and you can still got the skills. Chased him down
and performed a citizen's arrest.
Speaker 3 (24:57):
Both of them.
Speaker 4 (24:58):
That's what it's suggesting. How did he arrest too? Other
people must have been with him? WOWOSSI yeah, how cool
is that? I don't think i'd have that. I don't
think i'd have the cohunas well.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
I think this is a point, right, If you're going
to do a citizen's arrest, you must be confident you
can overpower someone.
Speaker 4 (25:13):
Yeah, I would.
Speaker 3 (25:14):
I would not. Well if it was smaller woman, I
might try.
Speaker 4 (25:18):
Or would you gelt over bear a job?
Speaker 3 (25:24):
But like you know, if a kid had done something,
I grabbed them and stuff.
Speaker 4 (25:27):
But what one of them was sixteen years old? A
sixteen year old boy, so so VOSSI would have had
him covered. You would have thought, what do you do?
Speaker 3 (25:34):
Sit on him?
Speaker 4 (25:35):
Yeah? You know, years ago I got in trouble my
little brother. This is a long time ago. Obviously, my
little brother was he would have been maybe five or six,
and he was causing trouble at the at the shops,
and Mum said, you look after your brother, you know,
which is what moms used to do back.
Speaker 3 (25:50):
How much older he?
Speaker 4 (25:51):
I was four years older.
Speaker 3 (25:53):
Okay, so you were ten he was here.
Speaker 4 (25:54):
Yeah, well maybe we're both a little bit younger. But
so there's something around there. And he was going nearly
running in front of traffic. Ooh, and so I got
into the ground and I sat on him, and I said,
this is the way that I'm going to hold him still, Luke,
you remembers, Well, what I remember is this old man
coming after me and going you get off that boy.
(26:16):
You leave that poor little boy alone.
Speaker 3 (26:18):
Do you say that is my little brother who is
going to kill himself in the traffic? You leave me alone?
Speaker 4 (26:23):
I thought I was trying to say, but I think
I just wept because I was getting in trouble from
some old stranger.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
So what happened?
Speaker 4 (26:29):
Mum came and sawed it all out.
Speaker 3 (26:31):
Yeah, well looks alive. It's not the story where Luke
got up right in front of a car and that
was it.
Speaker 4 (26:35):
No, that's right, bloody, say that kid's last you did.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
I'm sure you need to remind him of that.
Speaker 4 (26:39):
Yeah, sure, his spine was never the same, but whatever
you know swings aroundabout.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
You're listening to the Robin and Kid podcast.
Speaker 4 (26:52):
So Father's Day Sunday.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
Yeah, it's on Sunday, first of September.
Speaker 4 (26:55):
Yes, I've got something for Raphael, my five year old
at his day here on the Friday afternoon, the some
type of Father's Day coffee thing.
Speaker 3 (27:03):
Oh good, you're going to that one.
Speaker 4 (27:04):
I'll go to that one. Yes, yes, as.
Speaker 3 (27:06):
Opposed to the graduation. When you want to be a
news anyway, if you want to know what we're talking about,
just go to the podcast.
Speaker 4 (27:12):
He'll want to be Anwe to trust me anyway. So
you were asking me yesterday like what I've got planned
for Father's Day? I think, like we're going to do that,
but I think on Sunday because we've got the baby
at home, like in is what eleven weeks, it's just
too hard, Like sometimes we get to a cafe, but
it's such a drama, such an effort. I think it's
it'd be nicer for Father's Day just to be at home.
Speaker 3 (27:32):
And it's it's it's madness to get bookings. And unless
you've made a booking and then people are scrambling.
Speaker 4 (27:39):
Yeah, yeah, maybe not. Yeah. I think I'm just gonna
I'm just going to cruise. Jim Jefferies, comedian who was
actually just here just he was at the End Center
ten days ago in Brizzi. He has an interesting take
on what he wants for Father's Day.
Speaker 12 (27:50):
Father's Day came around. My girlfriend went, what do you
want for Father's Day? And I went, I don't want anything.
Don't even worry about it. I don't want anything. She goes,
come on, you got to have something. I said, honestly,
I don't want anything, and she goes, come on, and
I went, it's my money. Just don't touch it. Just
need my money alone.
Speaker 4 (28:06):
How hard is this?
Speaker 12 (28:07):
How about for twenty four hours you don't touch my money,
that will be a good.
Speaker 4 (28:11):
Just twenty four hours, don't touch my money.
Speaker 3 (28:13):
That's hard. Something we could question why she's touching his
money the rest of the time.
Speaker 4 (28:20):
Sure, he's made a lot of money doing his stand.
Speaker 3 (28:22):
Up, okay, and clearly she knows his bank against so
that's on him.
Speaker 4 (28:26):
That's a lovely father's day. It's a lovely Father's Day request.
Speaker 3 (28:29):
What actually is it that you want?
Speaker 4 (28:33):
I mean, I kind of do agree with that like
the idea of just don't spend, don't buy me more crap.
I've got everything I need. Oh okay, I don't need
any more crap. And Dad, I actually I bought something
for Dad, my dad, because they were here for the
weekend helping out with RAF and we're not going to
see him next weekend for Father's Day. So I got
him some ug boots. Oh yeah, because he's always cold.
Speaker 7 (28:53):
Dad.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
Okay, we're going in to summer and it's going to
be thirty one, but.
Speaker 4 (28:57):
Sure light offense. When I bought them, it was twenty. Great.
Speaker 3 (29:01):
That is fair enough because that was like two weeks ago.
Speaker 4 (29:03):
Yes, and he is. He's always cold. He's very little, Dad,
I reckon. My dad's about fifty five killers. Oh wow. Yeah,
he's a very, very very lean. He's been on heart
med since he was like in his forty so he's
got really thin blood. So he's cold. He's always cold. Yeah,
So I got him. So I got him some uggies
and he put him on and he was very great.
(29:23):
He said, oh, they're probably just a little bit small,
and I said that's right, you know, I said, I
can I can swap out get bigger ones and he said, Look,
to be honest, just can you just all the things
you've been fixing for me lately? That's all I want.
I don't want I actually don't want service.
Speaker 3 (29:37):
Guy. Yes, love language is acts of service.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (29:40):
And he literally took out a towel warmer from the
barber shop. He took a towel warmer out and said,
now this is broken. Can you fix it? Ah, that's
what he wants, and I'm happy to do that. I
feel good about fixing things.
Speaker 3 (29:49):
Well because that's his business. So you're helping him financially
and supporting him and doing something for fun.
Speaker 7 (29:54):
This that's right.
Speaker 4 (29:54):
He said, this will cost me four hundred bucks if
I have for get it fixed. But I know you
can do it because I've done it before. And so
I was like, yeah, okay, cool. See so that's her
Father's Day.
Speaker 3 (30:02):
And I think that's kind of the conversation we all
need to have, like what do you really want? Yeah,
and it's okay for you to say nothing or maybe
just leave me alone.
Speaker 4 (30:11):
Yeah. Oh yeah, that's going on what I would like
on Sunday.
Speaker 3 (30:14):
And I knew that that's why I said it, Like,
you know, you can say, can I just have two hours, Yeah,
to do whatever I want with no one in it.
Speaker 4 (30:23):
Yeah, yeah, that'd be nice, just two hours. I just
go into the TV room, close the door, just watch
Sci Fi Dribble and just no one, no one talking
to me.
Speaker 3 (30:31):
Isn't that hilarious? Because if that was Mother's Day and
they did that to me, I think the one knocking
on the dog going do you miss me?

Sound of White tour, which turned into a much bigger
tour than she was expecting.
Speaker 3 (33:01):
She told us, And you've been touring the country has
that been. You're coming towards the end of that.
Speaker 16 (33:07):
Yeah, yeah, we've just finished that. So it was forty shows.
It was massive, biggest tour I've ever done. Just didn't
realize that the Sound of White was as popular as
it was. I think after all this time, I guess
I didn't realize people still wanted to hear those songs
and those songs still meant something to them, which was amazing.
So the show's kind of kept selling out and then
we kept adding more and yeah, they's been really, really special.
Speaker 4 (33:29):
It's almost gone all the way up. Her last tour
has gone all the way up to the next tour,

off the lawn on a Day on the Green because
I love it. I'm there all the time, not because
I'm because so comedous. I'm just a part of the
green room. I'm there so often.
Speaker 4 (34:43):
My dad came out, all right, someone's gonna peel Balley
off the lawn again. She's blowing Guys the Robin and
Jit Podcast.
Speaker 3 (34:57):
I know you think this week could just be your
worst nightmare, but honestly, if you were there last night,
I'm talking about the Brisbane Fashion Festival. There's a big
white marquee set up in King George Square. So have
you been walking past on the way to work or whatever.
That's what it's for and last night was just extraordinary.
Over fifteen Olympic swimmers from Paris were either in the
(35:17):
audience or walking the catwalk, and it was all for
dryser Bone, who were clearly one of the Dolphin sponsors,
and they were in the front row. Two of Australia's
most successful Olympic swimmers there was champion backstroker Kaylee McEwan
and three time gold medalist free styler Molly oh Callahan.
So I asked Molly where she keeps the medals?
Speaker 9 (35:40):
So mums kind of hits them away.
Speaker 15 (35:42):
They're currently stucked in like stuffed in socks. So because
I had to ship my boxes, my metal boxes back
chrome a posts fell too big to fit my suitcase.
Speaker 3 (35:53):
There so many of them.
Speaker 15 (35:54):
It's a good thing to have, it's a good thing
to happen. And I think Kaylie was the same. She
had so many and we're kind of like, oh.
Speaker 4 (36:01):
What do we do?
Speaker 15 (36:02):
So I see ship them more home and I was like,
I'll take the medals so then the boxes can come
later to Molly.
Speaker 3 (36:08):
Are you going to go for Brisbane?
Speaker 9 (36:10):
We'll see a fingers cross. I think I've got to
continue loving the sport.
Speaker 15 (36:14):
I think I'll be twenty seven, twenty eight, so I
reckon I shud be around as well.
Speaker 4 (36:20):
They were killed twenty thirty.
Speaker 3 (36:22):
Two, she's only going to be twenty seven. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (36:24):
In swimming parlances though, that's pretty old, isn't it like this?
Speaker 3 (36:27):
They're all kids, I know, but there were people winning
medals and stuff from their late twenties early thirties at Paris.
Speaker 4 (36:33):
If you can handle the bottom of swimming laps that
many laps every day for the next eight years.
Speaker 3 (36:38):
See, you don't get it, right.
Speaker 4 (36:40):
I don't get it. I don't. I'm not.
Speaker 3 (36:42):
I mean, I'm not as Olympic swimmer, but I swim
by choice at least four times a week.
Speaker 4 (36:47):
Yeah, I love it.
Speaker 3 (36:48):
It's my meditative state. Like no one. No one can
talk to me. I can get into my head, I
can think things.
Speaker 4 (36:55):
But I remember Thorpey saying it's really boring, Like that's
why they said, why did you retire? It's really boring?
Speaker 3 (37:01):
Well, I think because you start so young, like you
started twelve thirteen, so you don't know any better, yes,
and then after like twenty two to twenty three, you're like, oh,
there's a different live out there.
Speaker 4 (37:10):
The friends are going out on a Friday night. You're
just cutting laps.
Speaker 3 (37:13):
But I want to let you hear this because this
is quite an extraordinary story on the runway last night
in Amazing Gold Togs, and I've seen that it is
the number one story on daily mail right around the country.
With Shana jack Now, she won two gold medals at
Paris and her stories are one of the greatest comebacks
of any athlete. In twenty nineteen, she received a two
(37:35):
year doping band for taking a protein powder with a
banned substance in it. She fought back and Paris was
absolutely one of her greatest moments. So I started by
asking her what it meant to her.
Speaker 7 (37:47):
To be there.
Speaker 17 (37:49):
I've got to prove to people that I don't give up,
and I've got to prove to people that I didn't
do something like this and would never do something like
this to myself, my family, my Beyonce, my country and
my sport. And said to me on Essays Australia, why
did I start in the first place? And I said
because I loved the feeling of being in the water.
And he said, well, why wouldn't you go back? You know,
I don't swim for the metals. I don't swim for
(38:10):
the world records. I don't swim for those things. They
are the bonuses that come with.
Speaker 9 (38:13):
What I love to do.
Speaker 3 (38:15):
But mate, you got a gold medal.
Speaker 9 (38:17):
I know I do hoping. It's really hit me.
Speaker 17 (38:20):
For me, I remember that moment and how amazing that moment.
Failed to look up and see seventeen thousand people but
in particular.
Speaker 9 (38:26):
My parents and my fiance in the stands. That to
me was the most important part.
Speaker 3 (38:32):
So cool, yeah, so cool and so humble. I mean
a third of our medals from Paris were from the swimmers.
Speaker 4 (38:39):
Yeah, and I bet you they look great on that
when they were modeling.
Speaker 3 (38:42):
Yeah, seriously, you can check out my socials because I've
posted a whole parle of photos, but also the Daily Mail.
I mean they look they're so physically fit, yes, you
know they and the women and triangle.
Speaker 4 (38:53):
Yeah, it's the perfect.
Speaker 3 (38:56):
On those legs, the power in those butts. Yeah, I mean,
in my goodness, they look fantastic in the gold togs.
But it was it was such a cool night. It
kicks off. We've still got two more parades tonight and
tomorrow night. There's a lunch at Hanworth House today. There's
so many exciting things and you'll get to live it
through me.
Speaker 4 (39:13):
Yes, I'm so happy for you to take that for
the team. Thank you.
Speaker 2 (39:18):
Wake Up with Robin and Kid.
Speaker 4 (39:23):
The Paris twenty twenty four Paralympics begin Thursday on Channel
nine and four time paralympian who's been representing Australia since
two thousand and one now commentating will chair rugby in
Paris Is Ryan Scott. Hey, Ryan, Hey, Hey, Goaran. For
the uninitiated, will chair rugby? How does it actually work?
What are the rules?
Speaker 7 (39:43):
Yeah? Look, it is extremely different. It's definitely our own
code of rugby. It's originally called Myrdible. We're designed for
people who didn't have the ability to play woo chair basketball.
So it was invented by some Canadians who had some
impairment in upperly and lower limbs. So they were just
throwing a volleyball round and slamming into each other on
(40:04):
a basketball court and being Canadians. It's got elements of
ice hockey where you're allowed to hit off the ball.
It's the American grid iron where you set blocks and screens.
There is a tryline at the end, and similar to basketball,
you know, we're in a basketball court. It's similar to
thousy rules where you've got to bounce all pass once
every ten seconds. Right, You've got forty seconds in total
(40:25):
to score. So it's extremely fast paced score like a game.
You're getting up to like fifty to sixty points each
within or eight minute quarters and the clock stop, so
guys are getting from one end to the court to
the other pretty quickly. It's very technical once you get
past everybody, you know, cleaning each other up and slamming
into each other. Technical that's what that's what brings brings
(40:50):
people in, and then the technical side of things. You
start to really appreciate the game even on a higher level.
Speaker 4 (40:56):
When you're working from in a commentary role. Right like
when a new player takes the court, for example, do
you ever go into past injuries or anything like that
or is it just about their record as a paralympian?
What's the general sort of rules? What are the faux pas?
With that?
Speaker 7 (41:13):
Most of the guys have shared their story. There was
a great documentary come out on the Steelers recently Forged
in Steel, which got behind their their personal stories but
also their journey towards Paris, and I think people really
like it. They like to see the backstory and we
like to.
Speaker 3 (41:29):
Get emotionally involved. But Ryan, like, you have five World Championships,
You've been to four Para Olympic Games, winning one World
champ silver and bronze, and two Paralympic gold medals and
one silver. You are a truly extraordinary athlete. So I mean,
if you don't mind, can you tell us how you
ended up in a wheelchair.
Speaker 7 (41:50):
Yeah, so while I was sixteen and we were heading
to a pub for a friend's birthday and the driver
was just driving too fast on the wet road. He
lost control, We rolled over and tree, and then when
we hit that tree, the roof came down, hit me
on my head, crushed me, and I broke my neck
at c five six and seven. So I have spinal
(42:11):
cord injuries and I'm a quadriplegic, so I have a
limited function in my arms and I'm paralyzed from my
chest down.
Speaker 3 (42:19):
It's quite extraordinary then, that you've gone on to do
all these amazing things. I mean, when you think about
that sport and every single person on the court, what
do you want Australians to see when we're watching you?
Speaker 7 (42:34):
They're just a great group of guys. Everybody has overcome something.
There's been moments in our lives where you just, I
guess you didn't know what your life was going to
look like. And you'll see that emotion from the friends
and the family that have traveled over there. They've sat
by their hospital bedsides and probably watched them and thought,
what is his life going to look like at this
point or her life and so many unanswered questions. And
(42:56):
then to see them in the highest level competing for
their country and you know, being one of the most
successful teams ever to play which air rugby, It's going
to be so much pride. And I think that's the
main thing is to see them as athletes as well.
They train so hard. It's not even just training, its recovery,
its preparation, it's diet. They do everything that our able
(43:20):
bodied athletes are doing. And yeah, just get behind them.
I think that's what we really want is you know,
I know there's some late nights and early mornings, but that's.
Speaker 3 (43:29):
Fine for breakfast radio announces.
Speaker 4 (43:31):
Don't you worry about.
Speaker 7 (43:32):
That for us? Exactly?
Speaker 3 (43:35):
Yeah, Ryan, Can I ask you about being in the
Olympic village, Is it like it is for the able
bodied athletes. I mean we were talking to a number
of them during the games and apparently there were three
hundred thousand condoms.
Speaker 7 (43:48):
It was a fondom vending machine in the dining hall
in Rio. But yeah's some action goes on. I think
most of the rugby guys have always been checked up. Unfortunately,
we've always been the most disciplined team untunately.
Speaker 4 (44:05):
Yes, thanks mate, by.
Speaker 7 (44:08):
Way, thank you.
Speaker 2 (44:11):
