While Christian is away on his break, we're going through some of our favourite bits from the show so far.

Like when we posed the simple question "What Is The Laziest Thing You Do?"

Believe me, we got some interesting responses. If you can top ironing jeans by sitting on them like a mother hen email us at christian@christianoconnell.com.au

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Christ Yeah, welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
What do you do? There's a height of laziness.

Speaker 3 (00:07):
I constantly steal batteries from one remote and just shove
it in the other one rather than getting up.

Speaker 2 (00:12):
It would take me no more.

Speaker 3 (00:13):
Than ten seconds to get up and go and shimmy
over to that drawer of that everybody everybody has in
a house where there's a tape measure in there. I
think there's a board of string, cellar tape, some kind
of parcel opening knife and then various batteries that my
wife just shoves in the dead ones won't just put

(00:33):
them in the bin.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
It's all just rummaging around it. They're just to.

Speaker 3 (00:37):
See a flotilla of various bits and bobs. But there
is that random draw in every I think there's a candle.
I think there's a candle in case there's a power outage.
As well.

Speaker 4 (00:47):
Those double A batteries, we have them in Australia when
we were kids, where you would put your finger and
thumb on either end of it and would tell you
how much charge was still left in the battery.

Speaker 3 (00:56):
Good old days. Give me that thing they had as
well for rechargeable back. You should have plugged him in
the No one could be bothered. We're just lazy, go Nana,
and I'd rather just chuck it in landfill rather do that.

Speaker 2 (01:08):
All right, So what do you do? That's the height
of laziness. What do you do? Patsy?

Speaker 1 (01:12):
Well, the light globe in our bathroom blewe the other weekend,
So we just pinched the one from Chris's office and
put it in.

Speaker 5 (01:19):
But now he's working in darkness.

Speaker 3 (01:21):
She got like an old sort of Victorian candle or something.

Speaker 2 (01:26):
He just got like a minus lamp on his head.

Speaker 1 (01:29):
Someone went into Audrey's bedroom and got a disk lamp
and he shoved that on the disks.

Speaker 3 (01:36):
Christian, I leave my dirty plates on the table. The
dog comes along and licks them clean. Then they're ready
for dinner the next night.

Speaker 2 (01:41):
No, No, she cannot be doing that. Mary.

Speaker 3 (01:47):
My children have wrung me on the mobile from the
toilet because they've run out of toilet paper. I'm literally
in the same house, just down the hallway. I've got
to be honest. I should have stopped this earlier. They
caught yesterday. My daughter had a friend O and they're
watching some horror movie in the evening. I'm watching the
TV and my wife my phone goes and it's my
daughter calling from the rumpus room. That could come up

(02:08):
here of the TV's on the blink, and like suck,
I just went up there.

Speaker 2 (02:12):
My wife went to sit down, Chris, but she'd be upset.
She started yelling, she'd keep calling more calls. It's better
don't go up there.

Speaker 3 (02:21):
Now it's caught between two very big, strong, formidable ladies.
I didn't know what to do. I went for the
seventeen year old. Those moments, they are kicking in big
and strong at the moments I went sort the TV out.
But yeah, do you get that from order? Does she
call you from within the house?

Speaker 2 (02:33):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (02:33):
Constantly, But I do. I do understand the lou thing
because you can't very well like wadlout no with you
niggers around your ankles. I think I think that is justifiable. Yeah,
to text or call for lou paper, which is up
the other end of the house.

Speaker 3 (02:47):
What about I think this one? Then my wife does
this move. She texts from the bath asking for a
glass of wine.

Speaker 5 (02:52):
Oh absolutely, that's a given butler on.

Speaker 4 (02:55):
But if it goes both way, it's fine. Bank and
I will often text each other, you know, can I
have a snack while I'm watching TV? Or she asked
for a hot water bottle when she's already in pair.
I think that's acceptable as long as it's flowing both ways.

Speaker 2 (03:07):
I'm not it's very much a one way street. The Ryan,
what do you do? Height of laziness? I've got able
in a mate. He uses cruise controls in car park.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
I've never heard of that, because you're not even going
at speed.

Speaker 5 (03:22):
No, are you like you're doing like eight k's an hour.

Speaker 2 (03:26):
Ryan, You're right to alm by the way. You're doing
a good job for him. I'm not discussing. What are
you What do you say? What are you saving there?
What a sense? Nothing? Ryan? Thank you very much. Good
to Erica. Now, Hey Erica, Hey Christian, Hello Erica, welcome
to the show. So height of laziness. So I'm way

(03:47):
too lazy to walk to the bathroom to get a
piece of dental swath.

Speaker 6 (03:50):
So I'll just pull out a strand of hair from
the top of my head and use that.

Speaker 2 (03:55):
That's strong.

Speaker 6 (03:56):
Yeah, I'm lazy.

Speaker 2 (04:01):

of my most effective chat up lines.

Speaker 2 (04:05):

bring the food to me, bother to get in the
cant try from the corner to a local cafe or restaurant.

Speaker 3 (04:40):
That's great, Thank you very much, Andrew Cooper. Someone in
my household is too lazy to change over the used
toilet roll, just leaving the cardboard tube on the hold
of my wife does that. She's never ever changed one once,
just leaves it there. It's aggressive when you see it.
Beare bold like that. You're you're actually just saying you
deal with this role changer you are in life, leaving

(05:03):
it to me to change have a new role, Chris,
I'm thinking about might go on strike, Andrew.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
It won't work. You'll cave in.

Speaker 4 (05:09):

me for the TV. So I want to a remote
so I didn't have to get.

Speaker 2 (05:33):
Up your phone because you're gonna go to the app store.
