Speaker 1 (00:00):
Christ Yeah, welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Hello, this is something new from me from us comes
out a question that I'm just going to shut this door.
I've got the dryer on drying my clothes at the moment,
and my families as well. Well. Yes, yes, questions. That's it.
(00:25):
People often ask me what happens after the show? This
is what happens after the show. I've actually recorded what
happens after the show. You're about to hear a recent
team meeting. I just recorded it. We're in the studio
where the post show meeting always happens. This is me
with producers Caitlin and Rio having one of our chats.
(00:47):
A couple of things you're going to realize very quickly
as we peer behind the curtain at the Wizard of Oz.
Actually I am am I the Wizard of oz Oz. Anyway,
all ideas are born fully formed, same in radio shows
and creativity, the same in all of our lives. Nor
(01:08):
should they their little seeds, their seeds of possibilities, new
ways of thinking, doing being. So as you listen to
list maybe think about how you develop your own ideas
with whatever you want to do in your own life
as always have a listen. Thank you very much for
being interested in this. If you like it, email me
and maybe I'll do some more of these. Is Christian
(01:29):
at christiano'connell dot com dot au. Here is the first
ever after the show, we're going to take those clothes
out that dryer.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
Now the Christian O'Connell Show podcast already, Do we want
to get into some show stuff?
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Yeah, okay, so this is People always want to know
what happens after the show, and so this is what
happens after the show, where we will talk about very
briefly that day show, there's any learnings, what went really well,
and then we quickly get into the other part of
the joy of doing what we do is actually turning
over new ideas and new possibilities and what creativity is
(02:06):
really about, which is about new possibilities. A lot of
people think creativity is about knowing what's going to work
and getting it right. We have to, and it's hard
sometimes surrender that because there is no guarantee of what
is going to work, because it's a live show and
you never know, Like the bin stuff a week ago,
I've had that idea for a while since I knew
(02:28):
that Carl and Jackie I were going to be spending
millions of marketing. We had nothing, but I didn't know
whether it be just something that we felt passionate about.
And then we had no marketing. There were no billboards
connect and then we all now week later, know thousands
of them. Literally, we can't actually cope with the demand.
We never would have guessed that. How would you do?
Don't know what they care about, what triggers them?
Speaker 4 (02:47):
No, every day we do that.
Speaker 5 (02:49):
So even with phoners, and I think we do it
very differently. I've worked on many shows, and my name's Caitlin.
I'm a producer of the show.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
I haven't even induced myself. Yeah, how do you feel
like you need to do that?
Speaker 3 (03:00):
This?
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Who are you?
Speaker 1 (03:01):
I've been here the whole time.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
Your voice is very familiar, though his mine's very late.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Otherwise you've got bigger problems. Who talk?
Speaker 4 (03:12):
But I've been on a lot of shows.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Does he won a prize to chat to Caitlin and
producer Rio? By the way, I'll introduce Rio and my
sell them because you just were't. My name's Kay, and
just let us be nameless mumblings.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
It's awkward to introduce yourself, like someone else does it
there or you Yeah, well this is Christian O'Connell and
this is.
Speaker 4 (03:32):
Rio the producer, and I'm Caitlyn producer.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
That was so smooth. Yeah, this is what happens after
the show.
Speaker 5 (03:40):
So what I was going to say is, I've worked
on a lot of shows, and I've never worked on
a show quite like our show.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
We doesn't sound like a compliment.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
No, it's a great compliment.
Speaker 5 (03:50):
I love this show and this is why I've chosen
what's different about it.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
People will be interesting. Then you're used to what spreadsheets.
Run sheets that means where everything.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
Is planned and a lot of plan So no, thank you.
Speaker 5 (04:02):
So what we would normally have on any other radio
show that I've ever worked on is a run sheet,
and that is an hour by hour breakdown of what
we're going to do each break in that show.
Speaker 4 (04:12):
So we are prepared.
Speaker 5 (04:13):
We have all of the stuff, We've got all the audio,
and we know exactly how that break's going to go
from A to Z. This show, we do not have
a run sheet, and our kind of like run sheet
of the show has changed over time to work more
with what we think allows us to flow through the
show more and I think, you know, you can really
(04:34):
hear it coming out the speakers of each day, like
there's an idea or ideas that we have at the
moment that I'll talk about with eight to zve schools
and the letter B. And we were going to do
that on Tuesday, but we never actually got to them
because we did other phoners during that day that just
kind of felt more natural and progressive in that show's
(04:54):
that day's show, and we just jumped on it because
we felt the energy behind it.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
And I think the same with binboards.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
We just kind of threw it out there hoping that
they would join this rebel army that we've created. And
I was organizing all of the stickers. I printed out
two hundred thinking maybe, yeah, maybe we'll get that. I
now have had to organize two or three sticker companies.
We've got a third one coming up to print them
(05:21):
out and distribute them because it is impossible for us
to be able to keep up with the amount of
people that want and.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
We're talking about thousands. And if you don't know what
this is, these are beIN stickers that were sending out
to people that advertise the show that they stick on
the bin and it's a binboard. That's our marketing at
the moment. And I don't think with that one. I
don't think it did get thrown out there because it
wouldn't have worked. It wasn't thrown out there. If you
listen back to what we did and what I said,
it's not thrown out there is because I knew how
(05:48):
I felt about it. And I think a lot of
the time is not so much what you're saying. It's
the same with any anytime you're talking. It's about more
than what you're saying. It's the emotion underneath it. And
it came from a real place that we are piss
stuff about that our printer is being taken away because
the running costs are too high, and so it comes
from real place, and then they feel that and they
get irritated as well, and then they go, I really
(06:10):
like this show. Screw the other shows, Screw a multimillion
dollar campaign they want to support. They want. Everyone wants
to belong to something, and I think any great radio
show or podcast you want to belong to it. You
like what they do, hopefully, And so I think we've
given people a chance to actually genuinely when we say
join us, they are joining us. There's Almo's that they're
working for the show. You know if I had a
(06:31):
shout at that, and they were like, and we don't
normally say talk about the show. We are doing the show.
We're in the show with them. We don't normally talk
about it, like, hey, you know this thing that's happening
right now us doing this, This has consequences. There's another show,
there's ratings and stuff like that, and there's revenue, and
we don't normally talk about that. It's a very unusual
thing for a radio show to do. And so it's
(06:53):
been a joy doing it. And last night I went
out and delivered some of the binstickers myself, which was
a real blast. I love doing that. It was great fun.
It was strangely intimate, more than I realized going round
to their homes, because when you're in your home, you're
very vulnerable, aren't you. It's in the evening and you
kind of you're done with the day. You shut that
door when you come in and you know you don't
(07:13):
going to go out anymore, and you're like, that's that
day done? Pants are Yeah, a lot of them were
they And suddenly there's the guy and I could see
it was it was it was, it was. It was
a I always love in the evening when it's already dark.
I love peering into people's homes. It sounds a bit hard,
like I'm in the garden. I went walking by casual
I'm a casual pierer and just seeing a lovely scene.
(07:37):
Yesterday I was drive around when my daughter when we're
doing the stickers, there was a scene there was a
dad with his son on his lap, and it looked
like he was consoling him. How the boy had a
tough day at school? Was he being bullied? Was he
the bully? Join me on my new podcast, Christian Peers
through Windows. I'd listened to that. I actually would listens
(08:00):
to start a new movement peerers.
Speaker 4 (08:04):
Hey, they're putting themselves out there.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Though.
Speaker 5 (08:05):
We've got a very peer through window in the front
of our house and we always put our blind down
when we know it's getting dark.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Enough the people can see peering. Yeah, if you know
that and you're leaving it open, that's on you.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
Good, good to get that out. But I like I
like seeing a family scene in there, the TV's on,
having dinner.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
I like that it's flying the water.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Christmas movie where he's going looking through the windows. It
it's a wonderful life. I have not seen that.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
It's a very old movie.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Yeah, it doesn't matter. It's irrelevant, it's relevant or it isn't.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
No, No, that's whine I always see on the top
of IMDb lists, and I'm like, I'm never.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Gonna watch that movie my life because it's black and white.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
It's black and white.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
Then you're racists. You don't like either we like.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
I'm the same with footy players, like if you've done
something in black and white, I don't recognize it as aggressive.
Like I see the old footage, I adn't.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Actually respects it more because it's harder. The ball same
in soccer sam and footage is heavy. It's actual pick
kick around. It was like muddier. Does it look muddier
as well? It's like muddy, yeah, And that most of
them all had jobs, did no real cardio. If you
look at like the body fat, it's like fifty to fifty,
(09:16):
isn't it. They're all like smoking like sixty and drinking heavily. Therefore,
it's incredible what you did. Point kick that many goals
and drink like that did hardly any cardio A jog
around the part to warm up. You're a golden cock.
I didn't think of it like that. Yeah, all right,
let's run this now because there is stuff that we
do need to talk about. We do, all right, So Caitlin,
why don't you kick off what's on that list?
Speaker 5 (09:38):
So normally we'll talk about tomorrow's show, So tomorrow show Today,
dumb pet names number two will pop it on socials.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
Yeah. I love doing that today.
Speaker 5 (09:45):
Yeah, because I know that that's an easy one, that
the comments will be really great.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
It's amazing from that going from just asking people for
silly names. So normally, you know, just we don't need
heap from them. But today we ended up with that
unbelievable call about about.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Marry the Barry Munday who they grew from a little
Barramundy to being one hundred and twenty centimeters which is massive.
And then he broke his own tank.
Speaker 4 (10:07):
Yeah, ended up in a spa hands behind.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Him, and she tried to save his life. She kept
it going for a couple of days, and then it
got into this real story where she was in Townsville
and they lost a leterity and power there with the
floods a couple years ago, and so they couldn't keep
him alive. And so there it comes this real sad story.
But she already tried and and she'd obviously missus Barry
the Barramundy. But it was the fact that she said,
(10:30):
but you don't feel sad. He lived his best ever life.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Then we found out he used to enjoy eating goldfish.
We all do that, We all have our shadows. And
then they tried to get him like some company in
there and love hole. Barry ate that as well. Barry
was a lone wolf.
Speaker 4 (10:48):
They loved him.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
You could, I'm not being funny, you could make a
kid's movie out of that. Well, no, I'm going to
resign and do that. So I got you in here today.
Speaker 4 (10:59):
Through the shows, like that's it.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
I'm leaving Christian. He's going to try and make that
bar pouring all his money into it. Everything everything.
Speaker 4 (11:06):
I think you maybe started as a book. Maybe not
quit your job, just do it as a book.
Speaker 5 (11:10):
On the side, that's it's a movie, okay, yeah, but not.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Because you know what it is. Barries all of us,
and he's the best of us. And I'm afraid on
our worst days. He's the worst of us.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
How much of in between songs and post show is
just Christian pitching us various different movie plots.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
You really don't get me started on the Brothers don't
go anymore, because that is I'll take it. That's be honest.
That's a good that actually is.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
He does actually have one amazing idea.
Speaker 5 (11:37):
I have three okay, other things, other things, so off
Barry the barrel mundy. We did come up with some
other phoner ideas around pets. So not your regular pet, Yes,
I do like it because Barry the barrel money, that's
very random.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
So yeah, but what does that mean? If I'm listening
more and thinking, I don't know what not your regular
pet means, what does it mean? Like it? Well, rest
always oversized pets big, like like Patty's dog.
Speaker 4 (12:07):
Yeah, over sized pets.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
As a way, I think it's over undersized pets. You
might have it. You can have something called a miniature donkey. Yes,
they're tiny, tiny.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
Well, the miniature pigs are ones.
Speaker 4 (12:21):
That yeah, yeah, I like that.
Speaker 5 (12:24):
Yeah, underside okay, great, other ideas that came off that
called at work because during that time she had to
call her hobby at work to let him know.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
She actually said, barries in a condition. This is a barrel,
mundy fish. We've all had those calls at work where
they're calling about an emergency. But if you break it
down that emergency. I remember, so I said to my wife,
if you really need me during the day, right in
the meetings, call twice, okay, otherwise just text and what's over.
But I remember years ago the kitchen was being renovated
(12:56):
and she activated the double call protogo and it was
a big meeting. It was a sales pitch. Was actually
for something like a couple of million dollars. This business,
it's very big. I go out there, I say, hey, listen,
my wife with the men, this is an emergency call.
That my god, I got to take this out there.
She goes, oh god, Chris, thank you very much. I'm
just going to facetimmy right now. I don't know what
kitchen sink to get. Can you help me choose? And
(13:17):
I just go, this is not an emergency. Oh that's
not ghost protocol, No, it really is. No.
Speaker 3 (13:28):
So did you kind of have a conversation about no?
Speaker 2 (13:29):
No, No, I hung up. I hung up.
Speaker 4 (13:33):
I did that to you?
Speaker 2 (13:34):
Don't leave a meeting to go on faceside to pick out.
Speaker 5 (13:38):
You guys giving help my wife.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Actually I like that. Ask the room, Ask the audience.
Ask Melbourne, asked Australia. If you are stock on a
decision between A or B whatever it is, how about
asking a giant sample size of anonymous people that aren't
invested in your story to give you an independent call love.
Have you stuck? Why not? Because we know you know
you've got hundreds of thousands of listeners in the morning
(14:06):
we say they don't know whether to do this or
that whatever it is. Instant advice, decision, got it? Ask Melbourne,
Ask Australia, Ask the world. What sounds better each Yeah,
ask the world.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
Ask the world, because we are out and let.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Me carr have some production, ring ring ring, Hello, who's
calling the world? Ah? Yes.
Speaker 5 (14:33):
So other things that we have signs are an adult
which is a feature of the show.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Yeah, it was great.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
We have done in a while and last we'd be
brought it back.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Yeah, I had one yesterday. We got some someone got
delivered and we get this food delivery service where it
comes every week and it's all the ingredients. Marley Spoon.
Speaker 4 (14:50):
Oh yeah, great, yes.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Right, really good. The food's really good. Nothing, it doesn't
take more than half an hour. And all the ingredients
there two onions, whatever you need all that. I ain't
more than onions. By the way the internet. Then go
look through people's windows at night.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
What do you sorry, wait, sorry, you eat an onion
by itself?
Speaker 2 (15:04):
No? No, no, it's a joke. Oh.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
This is also a lot of it is clarifying to Caitlin.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
Stuff gets lost in translation with me, only me anyway.
Point was this was a good box and I was
about to break it up using my manly hands that
God gave to me. And I was breaking up and thought,
this will come in handy one day. I don't know
when that day is, but you don't throw away a
good study. I My wife came back there and she went,
(15:32):
can you break that down? No, I'm going to put
in the garage that we don't need your empty boxes
in there. Right, it's just mess. So it's not mess.
There's three others in there, of various sizes, good sturdy boxes.
The one day I'll be grateful I've got a box
for that. Yes, that's a sign you're an adult when
you know this is a good sturdy you touch the
bomb of it, you go, maybe twenty kilos, oh man,
(15:54):
twenty kilos can sit comfortable in here without yielding.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
When you're judging the structural integrity of a box, you've
definitely at least it had.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
It wasn't just like tape.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
It had staples and good staples, not like.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
Triple you know, like triple staples like with Lou roll you.
I won't wipe a bit less than a triple play. Okay,
my fingers protected.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
Just wipe more gently would be my first bit of
yeah vigorous.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Let's say that for a future episode of How Do
You Wipe?
Speaker 4 (16:25):
I actually don't hate it.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
I do.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
I want to be asking just how to wipe down
householes that I would say is too much up in
their business? Literally.
Speaker 5 (16:38):
Okay, you know what I actually really loved when we
did What do you Wear to Bed?
Speaker 2 (16:44):
I don't ever remember now?
Speaker 1 (16:46):
I remember that because Jack's mum made him wear matching.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Fourteen until he was twenty eight. I think that's what
I used to also play with those wizards, yes, the overlaps. Yeah, yeah,
he had a wizard collection that he would arrange at night.
Speaker 5 (17:08):
Yeah, that's I believe. Let's move on off signs you're
an adult. We had another idea during the week, which
was signs you're still a child and.
Speaker 4 (17:20):
You had an idea around that.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Yes, I know, like Jack loves to eat jelly. I
love like when I go upstairs, I still like to
bound up as many stairs as I can, Like I'm trying.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
To stretch out at least three or four.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Yeah, Like, as adults, what are still some childish things?
Speaker 5 (17:34):
Semini, Once a month we'll pull our bed from our
bed frame into the lound room and we'll have a
night in.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
The lounge room.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
Cute.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
It was my favorite thing.
Speaker 4 (17:44):
Okay, Christian, so much effort, it was. It's so much joy.
I don't know why. But as a child when you
asked my mum can you leave and she was.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
Like yes, you were like, I love this, I love
this idea. This is a great idea.
Speaker 3 (17:59):
Yeah, yes, okay, great, We'll add that.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
All right, couple of ideas for me. Then with Jerry
Seinfeld's movie I'm Frosted out Right, and that is about
pop tarts and the true story of the race to
make pop tarts he's obsessed with. Joey's always been obsessed
with pop tarts since his kid because it was his
favorite snack. I love talking to you about your favorite
snacks now, but also as a kid, what were your
(18:23):
favorite snacks as a kid.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
Oh, there were these things. I'd never had them. In
England we had yogos or they were like a chocolate
moose with a giant gorilla as the mascot. Yeah, and
we very rarely were we allowed to have them, but
that's what made them even more.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
My one it was a real cheap you still buy
it now, cheap instant moose. It was called angel Delight,
angel Light. I even think a is a street name
for heroin. This was what it was like for me
as a kid. It would send me do lely Angel
Delight butter, Scotch flavor powder. You added milk to it,
whisket it up and it was an instant moose. Oh
(19:00):
my god, it's so good.
Speaker 4 (19:01):
Can you still get it or not?
Speaker 2 (19:03):
You can in the international?
Speaker 4 (19:07):
Hello, as in you can get it here. I've seen it.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
I'm going to get someone make some for you guys.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
Yes, please please bring it in.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
Oh my god, it's so.
Speaker 4 (19:18):
Good, good delight.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
Hey.
Speaker 5 (19:19):
Those yogos though good, so good, They were absolutely one
of my faves.
Speaker 3 (19:24):
The strawberry and the banana though, were my favorites.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
I just went straight chocolate.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Well you stroke it's still available now.
Speaker 5 (19:32):
No, really, you can only get the because I've tried.
You can only get the Yogo packs that have.
Speaker 4 (19:39):
The eminem's in them and you fold it over and
it turns into familiar. Yes, it's the only way you
can get them. You can't get it.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
You can't just get yoga wow.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
So it's a real shame.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
It is sad when snacks that you grew up with
you just go away.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
It's a certain part of you.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
It does, isn't it. It's a part of your child.
It's never coming back.
Speaker 4 (19:57):
Yeah, I'm like.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
This, we should do the snacks thing. Great, and then
we can also the next day try some of them
that Liss has mentioned. So if we can get hold
of so like the Angel Delight and.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
Stuff like that, I'm calling now Perhats. You'll say, Pollywaffle.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
I mean most of her answers are even when we
talk about how do you wipe. The other thing I
was thinking is like there was in the UK a
big newspaper there, The Times, and the best bit that
was this big newspapers should do at the weekend and
I miss it. It's called The Sunday Times. It's about
eight different supplements, sports, supplement, culture and all that. It
(20:35):
was great. You would spend an hour or two on
a Sunday reading through it. When I go back to England,
one of the many things I love to do of
them seeing family and friends is on a Sunday, I'll
go and get The Sunday Times. I just, oh my god,
there's just all the stuff you read. I like reading
about stuff I know nothing about, or it's just I
just like reading about different things that are interesting, well written.
I think that's the thing. Anyway. My favorite feature in
(20:57):
the magazine still goes to this day was on the
inside of the back page there'd be a photo of someone.
So some of them are more well known than others,
but anyway, someone notable for some reason and it simply
was a day in their life, right, And I honestly
I used to love reading it. It's the mundaneity. And
(21:17):
as you guys know, I'm obsessed with the mundaneity of
life because Monday means most people say it's a bit Monday.
It's boring to me. That is our lives. It's all
about the mundane, and I think actually, if you take time,
there is actual magic every single day in the mundane.
And so it literally would be what time you will
get up, what time would it be during the week,
what time the weekend? What's your breakfast, what's your lunch?
(21:38):
Where's your favorite place to go at lunch? It really
was throughout the day, they'd walk you through it. In
the evening, oh, a glass of wine? What wine is it?
What will you watch? What are you watching a moment?
Prefer to read a book, and it was like, oh
my god, I used to love reading it a snapshot
into these different people, and I loved it. I'd love
to do an audio version of that for our listeners
and now with phones up data real time. I always
(22:02):
go here for lunch once a week. It's my favorite place, Schnitz.
It's here in Ellwood. It's called this. I know the
guy there, Marco. And then it's like two hours later,
it's I'm doing this. I've had a call out on
a plumber. I've been doing this as my dad's business.
He's not very well. I've taken over. It's called this.
It's now tee to oh now taking my kids to
swimming that's what I do with Thursday. So because in
(22:23):
any day there's so many magical little moments in there,
and they can record it and then we can edit together,
and I think it's just a once a week thing. Yes,
down in life this week is Simon Blackwell, he's fifty two,
this was his day, Yes, and then we just play
it out like a two or three minute thing. I
think we get so much from I'd love to do that.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
Definitely.
Speaker 5 (22:42):
It reminds me of like knocking on, what are you
doing right now that we're doing the show, and it's
just peering into that moment or that morning.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
The theme here of period into their hose. But it
is because two a lot of shows where are literally
like you're looking at us, you're peering us, we're doing
the show. And I love it sometimes when you know
that actually it's a two way thing. We want to
know what's going on with you and that day in
the life. That feature even if I don't really know
(23:09):
the person you were, like, oh, it's a chairman of
a company or something like that. I don't know, but
I would get into that. It's that day. I still
every day now if I'm at the supermarket and I
see someone else as trolley, I always have a little look
at what they're getting. You love a peer, you are.
That job is actually to pay attention. That's what the
job is every single day is to pay attention and
(23:31):
people go Where do you get ideas from? It? Literally
is because most of us sleepwalking during the day. We
all do that. I do that, but it's actually noticing
that down. Like a couple of months ago, I just
saw there was a priest filling up his car at
the pump, and I don't know what we do with that,
but I cannot stop thinking about that priest at the pump.
We all saw it, and we're all like looking at
each other, and we've all got a shared collected thing, like,
(23:51):
isn't that priest there just filling up his car? It
was unusual. I guess, of course, they need to put
fuel in the car a lot. The rest of us do,
even friends of God.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
I would actually love a day in the life of
a priest. Yes, what would he's like, Bricky, what's he
got for lunch? Did he go for a little jog?
Speaker 2 (24:07):
Yeah? Do they work out? Yeah? Cleanest with the outfit
because they're they're rarely stained freshed someone who is it?
Do they have their own religious people that do?
Speaker 1 (24:23):
Ay?
Speaker 2 (24:23):
They have to do it a specialist one. You know. Also,
it's looks like as somebody who was raised the Catholic
primary school and we sort of get to church twice
a week with the community wine. Where do they get
that wine from? Because it's awful?
Speaker 1 (24:36):
Yes, can't they upgrade?
Speaker 2 (24:41):
They're worrying about not many people come to church if
they said it's pinos a great it's a great one.
It's single, Yeah, it's penfold. Everyone's taking a knee to
the big g.
Speaker 4 (24:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
I don't say an I'm going to start my own
religious movement. I am a Christian in name only taking
me to the g. But this is it's nice. And
then if you're going to have the body of Christ,
that the U Christ you know that way fer Yes, yeah,
let's have a nice oatmeal one or something with some cheese.
(25:23):
And have you been good that week? Maybe a little
bit of quints you've been bad this week? You have
that awful, crappy one. I didn't put the top on
it all year because that's what sinners get. Where will
we taking the.
Speaker 4 (25:38):
Now a day in the life, we're talking about let's.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
Let's start that's what's the next steps.
Speaker 4 (25:45):
Then how do we do it?
Speaker 2 (25:47):
I think we just asked people we've got this idea.
We just want to know waking up to during the day,
if you be part of it, we just want to
try it. Can you give us a call? There are
loads of listen as we know that are good value
that we can ask. Could you just do us get
a couple of them to do it. We can then
have a listen to it, get it editor up, see
how we feel about it.
Speaker 5 (26:04):
What about if we literally just say at the end
of the show or during the show at some point,
we just go today, can you write down what you
do or record the bits of peace that you do
to send it to us and then we can find
the ones through the emails.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
That we all Let's let's do that once tomorrow done.
Speaker 4 (26:21):
Day in the life.
Speaker 5 (26:22):
Also, I thought with your priest at the pump, you
don't see that every day.
Speaker 4 (26:26):
Is a good time love gat Yeah, you don't see
that every day.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
I mean sounding it since January. There you go, it's
made you found where a home for it. You don't
see that every day?
Speaker 5 (26:40):
Very eusy that every day that's what I'm thinking, like
you'd say the person.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
I saw a cat in a backpack at Victoria Gardens
last week like a literal.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
That's cruel? Is it just sad? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (26:52):
It has it, It has it.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
It doesn't matter the cat doesn't want that.
Speaker 4 (26:55):
Yeah, did you have to chat to it?
Speaker 2 (26:57):
No? I just thought it was. I was asking.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
You don't see that every day?
Speaker 3 (26:59):
Yeah, you don't, you don't, you don't.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
But maybe that's not what we want, you know, we
don't want sad.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
I saw a guy walk in his cat on a lead.
You don't see that every day.
Speaker 5 (27:10):
I'm not gonna want up you, but I am. I've
seen a cat ride a skateboard. It's a famous guy
in our area in Tweed. Everyone knows him and he
has these cats and every Sunday he'll get him on
like these skateboards and go up and down the road.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
In the world, I know it should be like a
copperfield at Vegas.
Speaker 4 (27:28):
Check it out.
Speaker 1 (27:30):
That's another what I wanted to do is who's the
guy in your town? We had our one back in
Sydney and Redferne.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
There was the gold Town Heroes.
Speaker 4 (27:38):
Small There's this.
Speaker 5 (27:40):
Really random thing in Weerriby it's just a giraffe made
out of metal and it pops up in people's front yards.
I think they'll move it around Wearriby. I have no
idea what it's about, but I just see it every
now and then. Once it was in the kindergarten, then
it was in someone's front yard.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
Fascinating, weird.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
Nothing don't that every day? See that metallic.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
So just for binboards tomorrow.
Speaker 5 (28:02):
Just a side note, we have a HEBA listeners that
have offered their services and their businesses to be dispatch center. Amazing,
So we are our sticker company is trying to keep
up with the amount and distribution. We've got one that's
going to distribute it straight from theirs. But that's for
everyone that's entered online, for everyone that hasn't and he's
just hearing and maybe doesn't have the time to jump
(28:24):
on or whatever. We're gonna have these dispatch centers around
Melbourne and tomorrow we're going to send them out to them.
Speaker 4 (28:30):
So we'll get a list for.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
You and you can just use that Rebel bass.
Speaker 4 (28:35):
Rebel bases love.
Speaker 5 (28:37):
What I thought also is because these are popular, just
in case, we'll give them a QR code to put
on their business like wherever, and if they run out
of them, people can just use the.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
Car code very very slip yes, enter and.
Speaker 5 (28:50):
We'll send it out to them for being legends. Other
than that, Timy for tomorrow our atwork Timeway.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
Staff Plant TV Show. Thank you.
Speaker 4 (28:59):
Did you come up with that during the show?
Speaker 2 (29:01):
We did?
Speaker 1 (29:02):
Yeah, I pished Plant Movies.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
Jack doesn't two movie once back to back for has
its own autlorithm.
Speaker 4 (29:11):
Right, that's it at the moment.
Speaker 2 (29:14):
I think that's enough for today. Yeah, there's a lot
of stuff there. All right, sixty more team, call it
a
Speaker 5 (29:19):
Brighter Now you're listening to the Question of Carl's Show
podcast
Christ Yeah, welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Hello, this is something new from me from us comes
out a question that I'm just going to shut this door.
I've got the dryer on drying my clothes at the moment,
and my families as well. Well. Yes, yes, questions. That's it.
(00:25):
People often ask me what happens after the show? This
is what happens after the show. I've actually recorded what
happens after the show. You're about to hear a recent
team meeting. I just recorded it. We're in the studio
where the post show meeting always happens. This is me
with producers Caitlin and Rio having one of our chats.
(00:47):
A couple of things you're going to realize very quickly
as we peer behind the curtain at the Wizard of Oz.
Actually I am am I the Wizard of oz Oz. Anyway,
all ideas are born fully formed, same in radio shows
and creativity, the same in all of our lives. Nor
(01:08):
should they their little seeds, their seeds of possibilities, new
ways of thinking, doing being. So as you listen to
list maybe think about how you develop your own ideas
with whatever you want to do in your own life
as always have a listen. Thank you very much for
being interested in this. If you like it, email me
and maybe I'll do some more of these. Is Christian
(01:29):
at christiano'connell dot com dot au. Here is the first
ever after the show, we're going to take those clothes
out that dryer.
Speaker 3 (01:38):
Now the Christian O'Connell Show podcast already, Do we want
to get into some show stuff?
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Yeah, okay, so this is People always want to know
what happens after the show, and so this is what
happens after the show, where we will talk about very
briefly that day show, there's any learnings, what went really well,
and then we quickly get into the other part of
the joy of doing what we do is actually turning
over new ideas and new possibilities and what creativity is
(02:06):
really about, which is about new possibilities. A lot of
people think creativity is about knowing what's going to work
and getting it right. We have to, and it's hard
sometimes surrender that because there is no guarantee of what
is going to work, because it's a live show and
you never know, Like the bin stuff a week ago,
I've had that idea for a while since I knew
(02:28):
that Carl and Jackie I were going to be spending
millions of marketing. We had nothing, but I didn't know
whether it be just something that we felt passionate about.
And then we had no marketing. There were no billboards
connect and then we all now week later, know thousands
of them. Literally, we can't actually cope with the demand.
We never would have guessed that. How would you do?
Don't know what they care about, what triggers them?
Speaker 4 (02:47):
No, every day we do that.
Speaker 5 (02:49):
So even with phoners, and I think we do it
very differently. I've worked on many shows, and my name's Caitlin.
I'm a producer of the show.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
I haven't even induced myself. Yeah, how do you feel
like you need to do that?
Speaker 3 (03:00):
This?
Speaker 2 (03:01):
Who are you?
Speaker 1 (03:01):
I've been here the whole time.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
Your voice is very familiar, though his mine's very late.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Otherwise you've got bigger problems. Who talk?
Speaker 4 (03:12):
But I've been on a lot of shows.
Speaker 2 (03:14):
Does he won a prize to chat to Caitlin and
producer Rio? By the way, I'll introduce Rio and my
sell them because you just were't. My name's Kay, and
just let us be nameless mumblings.
Speaker 1 (03:25):
It's awkward to introduce yourself, like someone else does it
there or you Yeah, well this is Christian O'Connell and
this is.
Speaker 4 (03:32):
Rio the producer, and I'm Caitlyn producer.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
That was so smooth. Yeah, this is what happens after
the show.
Speaker 5 (03:40):
So what I was going to say is, I've worked
on a lot of shows, and I've never worked on
a show quite like our show.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
We doesn't sound like a compliment.
Speaker 4 (03:48):
No, it's a great compliment.
Speaker 5 (03:50):
I love this show and this is why I've chosen
what's different about it.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
People will be interesting. Then you're used to what spreadsheets.
Run sheets that means where everything.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
Is planned and a lot of plan So no, thank you.
Speaker 5 (04:02):
So what we would normally have on any other radio
show that I've ever worked on is a run sheet,
and that is an hour by hour breakdown of what
we're going to do each break in that show.
Speaker 4 (04:12):
So we are prepared.
Speaker 5 (04:13):
We have all of the stuff, We've got all the audio,
and we know exactly how that break's going to go
from A to Z. This show, we do not have
a run sheet, and our kind of like run sheet
of the show has changed over time to work more
with what we think allows us to flow through the
show more and I think, you know, you can really
(04:34):
hear it coming out the speakers of each day, like
there's an idea or ideas that we have at the
moment that I'll talk about with eight to zve schools
and the letter B. And we were going to do
that on Tuesday, but we never actually got to them
because we did other phoners during that day that just
kind of felt more natural and progressive in that show's
(04:54):
that day's show, and we just jumped on it because
we felt the energy behind it.
Speaker 4 (04:58):
And I think the same with binboards.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
We just kind of threw it out there hoping that
they would join this rebel army that we've created. And
I was organizing all of the stickers. I printed out
two hundred thinking maybe, yeah, maybe we'll get that. I
now have had to organize two or three sticker companies.
We've got a third one coming up to print them
(05:21):
out and distribute them because it is impossible for us
to be able to keep up with the amount of
people that want and.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
We're talking about thousands. And if you don't know what
this is, these are beIN stickers that were sending out
to people that advertise the show that they stick on
the bin and it's a binboard. That's our marketing at
the moment. And I don't think with that one. I
don't think it did get thrown out there because it
wouldn't have worked. It wasn't thrown out there. If you
listen back to what we did and what I said,
it's not thrown out there is because I knew how
(05:48):
I felt about it. And I think a lot of
the time is not so much what you're saying. It's
the same with any anytime you're talking. It's about more
than what you're saying. It's the emotion underneath it. And
it came from a real place that we are piss
stuff about that our printer is being taken away because
the running costs are too high, and so it comes
from real place, and then they feel that and they
get irritated as well, and then they go, I really
(06:10):
like this show. Screw the other shows, Screw a multimillion
dollar campaign they want to support. They want. Everyone wants
to belong to something, and I think any great radio
show or podcast you want to belong to it. You
like what they do, hopefully, And so I think we've
given people a chance to actually genuinely when we say
join us, they are joining us. There's Almo's that they're
working for the show. You know if I had a
(06:31):
shout at that, and they were like, and we don't
normally say talk about the show. We are doing the show.
We're in the show with them. We don't normally talk
about it, like, hey, you know this thing that's happening
right now us doing this, This has consequences. There's another show,
there's ratings and stuff like that, and there's revenue, and
we don't normally talk about that. It's a very unusual
thing for a radio show to do. And so it's
(06:53):
been a joy doing it. And last night I went
out and delivered some of the binstickers myself, which was
a real blast. I love doing that. It was great fun.
It was strangely intimate, more than I realized going round
to their homes, because when you're in your home, you're
very vulnerable, aren't you. It's in the evening and you
kind of you're done with the day. You shut that
door when you come in and you know you don't
(07:13):
going to go out anymore, and you're like, that's that
day done? Pants are Yeah, a lot of them were
they And suddenly there's the guy and I could see
it was it was it was, it was. It was
a I always love in the evening when it's already dark.
I love peering into people's homes. It sounds a bit hard,
like I'm in the garden. I went walking by casual
I'm a casual pierer and just seeing a lovely scene.
(07:37):
Yesterday I was drive around when my daughter when we're
doing the stickers, there was a scene there was a
dad with his son on his lap, and it looked
like he was consoling him. How the boy had a
tough day at school? Was he being bullied? Was he
the bully? Join me on my new podcast, Christian Peers
through Windows. I'd listened to that. I actually would listens
(08:00):
to start a new movement peerers.
Speaker 4 (08:04):
Hey, they're putting themselves out there.
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Though.
Speaker 5 (08:05):
We've got a very peer through window in the front
of our house and we always put our blind down
when we know it's getting dark.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Enough the people can see peering. Yeah, if you know
that and you're leaving it open, that's on you.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
Good, good to get that out. But I like I
like seeing a family scene in there, the TV's on,
having dinner.
Speaker 3 (08:22):
I like that it's flying the water.
Speaker 2 (08:24):
Christmas movie where he's going looking through the windows. It
it's a wonderful life. I have not seen that.
Speaker 1 (08:29):
It's a very old movie.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Yeah, it doesn't matter. It's irrelevant, it's relevant or it isn't.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
No, No, that's whine I always see on the top
of IMDb lists, and I'm like, I'm never.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Gonna watch that movie my life because it's black and white.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
It's black and white.
Speaker 2 (08:41):
Then you're racists. You don't like either we like.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
I'm the same with footy players, like if you've done
something in black and white, I don't recognize it as aggressive.
Like I see the old footage, I adn't.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Actually respects it more because it's harder. The ball same
in soccer sam and footage is heavy. It's actual pick
kick around. It was like muddier. Does it look muddier
as well? It's like muddy, yeah, And that most of
them all had jobs, did no real cardio. If you
look at like the body fat, it's like fifty to fifty,
(09:16):
isn't it. They're all like smoking like sixty and drinking heavily. Therefore,
it's incredible what you did. Point kick that many goals
and drink like that did hardly any cardio A jog
around the part to warm up. You're a golden cock.
I didn't think of it like that. Yeah, all right,
let's run this now because there is stuff that we
do need to talk about. We do, all right, So Caitlin,
why don't you kick off what's on that list?
Speaker 5 (09:38):
So normally we'll talk about tomorrow's show, So tomorrow show Today,
dumb pet names number two will pop it on socials.
Speaker 2 (09:44):
Yeah. I love doing that today.
Speaker 5 (09:45):
Yeah, because I know that that's an easy one, that
the comments will be really great.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
It's amazing from that going from just asking people for
silly names. So normally, you know, just we don't need
heap from them. But today we ended up with that
unbelievable call about about.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Marry the Barry Munday who they grew from a little
Barramundy to being one hundred and twenty centimeters which is massive.
And then he broke his own tank.
Speaker 4 (10:07):
Yeah, ended up in a spa hands behind.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Him, and she tried to save his life. She kept
it going for a couple of days, and then it
got into this real story where she was in Townsville
and they lost a leterity and power there with the
floods a couple years ago, and so they couldn't keep
him alive. And so there it comes this real sad story.
But she already tried and and she'd obviously missus Barry
the Barramundy. But it was the fact that she said,
(10:30):
but you don't feel sad. He lived his best ever life.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Then we found out he used to enjoy eating goldfish.
We all do that, We all have our shadows. And
then they tried to get him like some company in
there and love hole. Barry ate that as well. Barry
was a lone wolf.
Speaker 4 (10:48):
They loved him.
Speaker 2 (10:49):
You could, I'm not being funny, you could make a
kid's movie out of that. Well, no, I'm going to
resign and do that. So I got you in here today.
Speaker 4 (10:59):
Through the shows, like that's it.
Speaker 2 (11:00):
I'm leaving Christian. He's going to try and make that
bar pouring all his money into it. Everything everything.
Speaker 4 (11:06):
I think you maybe started as a book. Maybe not
quit your job, just do it as a book.
Speaker 5 (11:10):
On the side, that's it's a movie, okay, yeah, but not.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Because you know what it is. Barries all of us,
and he's the best of us. And I'm afraid on
our worst days. He's the worst of us.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
How much of in between songs and post show is
just Christian pitching us various different movie plots.
Speaker 2 (11:27):
You really don't get me started on the Brothers don't
go anymore, because that is I'll take it. That's be honest.
That's a good that actually is.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
He does actually have one amazing idea.
Speaker 5 (11:37):
I have three okay, other things, other things, so off
Barry the barrel mundy. We did come up with some
other phoner ideas around pets. So not your regular pet, Yes,
I do like it because Barry the barrel money, that's
very random.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
So yeah, but what does that mean? If I'm listening
more and thinking, I don't know what not your regular
pet means, what does it mean? Like it? Well, rest
always oversized pets big, like like Patty's dog.
Speaker 4 (12:07):
Yeah, over sized pets.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
As a way, I think it's over undersized pets. You
might have it. You can have something called a miniature donkey. Yes,
they're tiny, tiny.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
Well, the miniature pigs are ones.
Speaker 4 (12:21):
That yeah, yeah, I like that.
Speaker 5 (12:24):
Yeah, underside okay, great, other ideas that came off that
called at work because during that time she had to
call her hobby at work to let him know.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
She actually said, barries in a condition. This is a barrel,
mundy fish. We've all had those calls at work where
they're calling about an emergency. But if you break it
down that emergency. I remember, so I said to my wife,
if you really need me during the day, right in
the meetings, call twice, okay, otherwise just text and what's over.
But I remember years ago the kitchen was being renovated
(12:56):
and she activated the double call protogo and it was
a big meeting. It was a sales pitch. Was actually
for something like a couple of million dollars. This business,
it's very big. I go out there, I say, hey, listen,
my wife with the men, this is an emergency call.
That my god, I got to take this out there.
She goes, oh god, Chris, thank you very much. I'm
just going to facetimmy right now. I don't know what
kitchen sink to get. Can you help me choose? And
(13:17):
I just go, this is not an emergency. Oh that's
not ghost protocol, No, it really is. No.
Speaker 3 (13:28):
So did you kind of have a conversation about no?
Speaker 2 (13:29):
No, No, I hung up. I hung up.
Speaker 4 (13:33):
I did that to you?
Speaker 2 (13:34):
Don't leave a meeting to go on faceside to pick out.
Speaker 5 (13:38):
You guys giving help my wife.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Actually I like that. Ask the room, Ask the audience.
Ask Melbourne, asked Australia. If you are stock on a
decision between A or B whatever it is, how about
asking a giant sample size of anonymous people that aren't
invested in your story to give you an independent call love.
Have you stuck? Why not? Because we know you know
you've got hundreds of thousands of listeners in the morning
(14:06):
we say they don't know whether to do this or
that whatever it is. Instant advice, decision, got it? Ask Melbourne,
Ask Australia, Ask the world. What sounds better each Yeah,
ask the world.
Speaker 3 (14:24):
Ask the world, because we are out and let.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
Me carr have some production, ring ring ring, Hello, who's
calling the world? Ah? Yes.
Speaker 5 (14:33):
So other things that we have signs are an adult
which is a feature of the show.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Yeah, it was great.
Speaker 1 (14:38):
We have done in a while and last we'd be
brought it back.
Speaker 2 (14:40):
Yeah, I had one yesterday. We got some someone got
delivered and we get this food delivery service where it
comes every week and it's all the ingredients. Marley Spoon.
Speaker 4 (14:50):
Oh yeah, great, yes.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Right, really good. The food's really good. Nothing, it doesn't
take more than half an hour. And all the ingredients
there two onions, whatever you need all that. I ain't
more than onions. By the way the internet. Then go
look through people's windows at night.
Speaker 3 (15:02):
What do you sorry, wait, sorry, you eat an onion
by itself?
Speaker 2 (15:04):
No? No, no, it's a joke. Oh.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
This is also a lot of it is clarifying to Caitlin.
Speaker 2 (15:11):
Stuff gets lost in translation with me, only me anyway.
Point was this was a good box and I was
about to break it up using my manly hands that
God gave to me. And I was breaking up and thought,
this will come in handy one day. I don't know
when that day is, but you don't throw away a
good study. I My wife came back there and she went,
(15:32):
can you break that down? No, I'm going to put
in the garage that we don't need your empty boxes
in there. Right, it's just mess. So it's not mess.
There's three others in there, of various sizes, good sturdy boxes.
The one day I'll be grateful I've got a box
for that. Yes, that's a sign you're an adult when
you know this is a good sturdy you touch the
bomb of it, you go, maybe twenty kilos, oh man,
(15:54):
twenty kilos can sit comfortable in here without yielding.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
When you're judging the structural integrity of a box, you've
definitely at least it had.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
It wasn't just like tape.
Speaker 3 (16:03):
It had staples and good staples, not like.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
Triple you know, like triple staples like with Lou roll you.
I won't wipe a bit less than a triple play. Okay,
my fingers protected.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
Just wipe more gently would be my first bit of
yeah vigorous.
Speaker 2 (16:21):
Let's say that for a future episode of How Do
You Wipe?
Speaker 4 (16:25):
I actually don't hate it.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
I do.
Speaker 2 (16:28):
I want to be asking just how to wipe down
householes that I would say is too much up in
their business? Literally.
Speaker 5 (16:38):
Okay, you know what I actually really loved when we
did What do you Wear to Bed?
Speaker 2 (16:44):
I don't ever remember now?
Speaker 1 (16:46):
I remember that because Jack's mum made him wear matching.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
Fourteen until he was twenty eight. I think that's what
I used to also play with those wizards, yes, the overlaps. Yeah, yeah,
he had a wizard collection that he would arrange at night.
Speaker 5 (17:08):
Yeah, that's I believe. Let's move on off signs you're
an adult. We had another idea during the week, which
was signs you're still a child and.
Speaker 4 (17:20):
You had an idea around that.
Speaker 1 (17:21):
Yes, I know, like Jack loves to eat jelly. I
love like when I go upstairs, I still like to
bound up as many stairs as I can, Like I'm trying.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
To stretch out at least three or four.
Speaker 1 (17:30):
Yeah, Like, as adults, what are still some childish things?
Speaker 5 (17:34):
Semini, Once a month we'll pull our bed from our
bed frame into the lound room and we'll have a
night in.
Speaker 3 (17:41):
The lounge room.
Speaker 2 (17:42):
Cute.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
It was my favorite thing.
Speaker 4 (17:44):
Okay, Christian, so much effort, it was. It's so much joy.
I don't know why. But as a child when you
asked my mum can you leave and she was.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
Like yes, you were like, I love this, I love
this idea. This is a great idea.
Speaker 3 (17:59):
Yeah, yes, okay, great, We'll add that.
Speaker 2 (18:02):
All right, couple of ideas for me. Then with Jerry
Seinfeld's movie I'm Frosted out Right, and that is about
pop tarts and the true story of the race to
make pop tarts he's obsessed with. Joey's always been obsessed
with pop tarts since his kid because it was his
favorite snack. I love talking to you about your favorite
snacks now, but also as a kid, what were your
(18:23):
favorite snacks as a kid.
Speaker 1 (18:25):
Oh, there were these things. I'd never had them. In
England we had yogos or they were like a chocolate
moose with a giant gorilla as the mascot. Yeah, and
we very rarely were we allowed to have them, but
that's what made them even more.
Speaker 2 (18:37):
My one it was a real cheap you still buy
it now, cheap instant moose. It was called angel Delight,
angel Light. I even think a is a street name
for heroin. This was what it was like for me
as a kid. It would send me do lely Angel
Delight butter, Scotch flavor powder. You added milk to it,
whisket it up and it was an instant moose. Oh
(19:00):
my god, it's so good.
Speaker 4 (19:01):
Can you still get it or not?
Speaker 2 (19:03):
You can in the international?
Speaker 4 (19:07):
Hello, as in you can get it here. I've seen it.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
I'm going to get someone make some for you guys.
Speaker 1 (19:16):
Yes, please please bring it in.
Speaker 2 (19:17):
Oh my god, it's so.
Speaker 4 (19:18):
Good, good delight.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
Hey.
Speaker 5 (19:19):
Those yogos though good, so good, They were absolutely one
of my faves.
Speaker 3 (19:24):
The strawberry and the banana though, were my favorites.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
I just went straight chocolate.
Speaker 2 (19:29):
Well you stroke it's still available now.
Speaker 5 (19:32):
No, really, you can only get the because I've tried.
You can only get the Yogo packs that have.
Speaker 4 (19:39):
The eminem's in them and you fold it over and
it turns into familiar. Yes, it's the only way you
can get them. You can't get it.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
You can't just get yoga wow.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (19:47):
So it's a real shame.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
It is sad when snacks that you grew up with
you just go away.
Speaker 1 (19:52):
It's a certain part of you.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
It does, isn't it. It's a part of your child.
It's never coming back.
Speaker 4 (19:57):
Yeah, I'm like.
Speaker 2 (19:58):
This, we should do the snacks thing. Great, and then
we can also the next day try some of them
that Liss has mentioned. So if we can get hold
of so like the Angel Delight and.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
Stuff like that, I'm calling now Perhats. You'll say, Pollywaffle.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
I mean most of her answers are even when we
talk about how do you wipe. The other thing I
was thinking is like there was in the UK a
big newspaper there, The Times, and the best bit that
was this big newspapers should do at the weekend and
I miss it. It's called The Sunday Times. It's about
eight different supplements, sports, supplement, culture and all that. It
(20:35):
was great. You would spend an hour or two on
a Sunday reading through it. When I go back to England,
one of the many things I love to do of
them seeing family and friends is on a Sunday, I'll
go and get The Sunday Times. I just, oh my god,
there's just all the stuff you read. I like reading
about stuff I know nothing about, or it's just I
just like reading about different things that are interesting, well written.
I think that's the thing. Anyway. My favorite feature in
(20:57):
the magazine still goes to this day was on the
inside of the back page there'd be a photo of someone.
So some of them are more well known than others,
but anyway, someone notable for some reason and it simply
was a day in their life, right, And I honestly
I used to love reading it. It's the mundaneity. And
(21:17):
as you guys know, I'm obsessed with the mundaneity of
life because Monday means most people say it's a bit Monday.
It's boring to me. That is our lives. It's all
about the mundane, and I think actually, if you take time,
there is actual magic every single day in the mundane.
And so it literally would be what time you will
get up, what time would it be during the week,
what time the weekend? What's your breakfast, what's your lunch?
(21:38):
Where's your favorite place to go at lunch? It really
was throughout the day, they'd walk you through it. In
the evening, oh, a glass of wine? What wine is it?
What will you watch? What are you watching a moment?
Prefer to read a book, and it was like, oh
my god, I used to love reading it a snapshot
into these different people, and I loved it. I'd love
to do an audio version of that for our listeners
and now with phones up data real time. I always
(22:02):
go here for lunch once a week. It's my favorite place, Schnitz.
It's here in Ellwood. It's called this. I know the
guy there, Marco. And then it's like two hours later,
it's I'm doing this. I've had a call out on
a plumber. I've been doing this as my dad's business.
He's not very well. I've taken over. It's called this.
It's now tee to oh now taking my kids to
swimming that's what I do with Thursday. So because in
(22:23):
any day there's so many magical little moments in there,
and they can record it and then we can edit together,
and I think it's just a once a week thing. Yes,
down in life this week is Simon Blackwell, he's fifty two,
this was his day, Yes, and then we just play
it out like a two or three minute thing. I
think we get so much from I'd love to do that.
Speaker 1 (22:42):
Definitely.
Speaker 5 (22:42):
It reminds me of like knocking on, what are you
doing right now that we're doing the show, and it's
just peering into that moment or that morning.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
The theme here of period into their hose. But it
is because two a lot of shows where are literally
like you're looking at us, you're peering us, we're doing
the show. And I love it sometimes when you know
that actually it's a two way thing. We want to
know what's going on with you and that day in
the life. That feature even if I don't really know
(23:09):
the person you were, like, oh, it's a chairman of
a company or something like that. I don't know, but
I would get into that. It's that day. I still
every day now if I'm at the supermarket and I
see someone else as trolley, I always have a little look
at what they're getting. You love a peer, you are.
That job is actually to pay attention. That's what the
job is every single day is to pay attention and
(23:31):
people go Where do you get ideas from? It? Literally
is because most of us sleepwalking during the day. We
all do that. I do that, but it's actually noticing
that down. Like a couple of months ago, I just
saw there was a priest filling up his car at
the pump, and I don't know what we do with that,
but I cannot stop thinking about that priest at the pump.
We all saw it, and we're all like looking at
each other, and we've all got a shared collected thing, like,
(23:51):
isn't that priest there just filling up his car? It
was unusual. I guess, of course, they need to put
fuel in the car a lot. The rest of us do,
even friends of God.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
I would actually love a day in the life of
a priest. Yes, what would he's like, Bricky, what's he
got for lunch? Did he go for a little jog?
Speaker 2 (24:07):
Yeah? Do they work out? Yeah? Cleanest with the outfit
because they're they're rarely stained freshed someone who is it?
Do they have their own religious people that do?
Speaker 1 (24:23):
Ay?
Speaker 2 (24:23):
They have to do it a specialist one. You know. Also,
it's looks like as somebody who was raised the Catholic
primary school and we sort of get to church twice
a week with the community wine. Where do they get
that wine from? Because it's awful?
Speaker 1 (24:36):
Yes, can't they upgrade?
Speaker 2 (24:41):
They're worrying about not many people come to church if
they said it's pinos a great it's a great one.
It's single, Yeah, it's penfold. Everyone's taking a knee to
the big g.
Speaker 4 (24:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
I don't say an I'm going to start my own
religious movement. I am a Christian in name only taking
me to the g. But this is it's nice. And
then if you're going to have the body of Christ,
that the U Christ you know that way fer Yes, yeah,
let's have a nice oatmeal one or something with some cheese.
(25:23):
And have you been good that week? Maybe a little
bit of quints you've been bad this week? You have
that awful, crappy one. I didn't put the top on
it all year because that's what sinners get. Where will
we taking the.
Speaker 4 (25:38):
Now a day in the life, we're talking about let's.
Speaker 2 (25:41):
Let's start that's what's the next steps.
Speaker 4 (25:45):
Then how do we do it?
Speaker 2 (25:47):
I think we just asked people we've got this idea.
We just want to know waking up to during the day,
if you be part of it, we just want to
try it. Can you give us a call? There are
loads of listen as we know that are good value
that we can ask. Could you just do us get
a couple of them to do it. We can then
have a listen to it, get it editor up, see
how we feel about it.
Speaker 5 (26:04):
What about if we literally just say at the end
of the show or during the show at some point,
we just go today, can you write down what you
do or record the bits of peace that you do
to send it to us and then we can find
the ones through the emails.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
That we all Let's let's do that once tomorrow done.
Speaker 4 (26:21):
Day in the life.
Speaker 5 (26:22):
Also, I thought with your priest at the pump, you
don't see that every day.
Speaker 4 (26:26):
Is a good time love gat Yeah, you don't see
that every day.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
I mean sounding it since January. There you go, it's
made you found where a home for it. You don't
see that every day?
Speaker 5 (26:40):
Very eusy that every day that's what I'm thinking, like
you'd say the person.
Speaker 1 (26:45):
I saw a cat in a backpack at Victoria Gardens
last week like a literal.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
That's cruel? Is it just sad? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (26:52):
It has it, It has it.
Speaker 2 (26:54):
It doesn't matter the cat doesn't want that.
Speaker 4 (26:55):
Yeah, did you have to chat to it?
Speaker 2 (26:57):
No? I just thought it was. I was asking.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
You don't see that every day?
Speaker 3 (26:59):
Yeah, you don't, you don't, you don't.
Speaker 1 (27:01):
But maybe that's not what we want, you know, we
don't want sad.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
I saw a guy walk in his cat on a lead.
You don't see that every day.
Speaker 5 (27:10):
I'm not gonna want up you, but I am. I've
seen a cat ride a skateboard. It's a famous guy
in our area in Tweed. Everyone knows him and he
has these cats and every Sunday he'll get him on
like these skateboards and go up and down the road.
Speaker 2 (27:24):
In the world, I know it should be like a
copperfield at Vegas.
Speaker 4 (27:28):
Check it out.
Speaker 1 (27:30):
That's another what I wanted to do is who's the
guy in your town? We had our one back in
Sydney and Redferne.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
There was the gold Town Heroes.
Speaker 4 (27:38):
Small There's this.
Speaker 5 (27:40):
Really random thing in Weerriby it's just a giraffe made
out of metal and it pops up in people's front yards.
I think they'll move it around Wearriby. I have no
idea what it's about, but I just see it every
now and then. Once it was in the kindergarten, then
it was in someone's front yard.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
Fascinating, weird.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
Nothing don't that every day? See that metallic.
Speaker 4 (28:00):
So just for binboards tomorrow.
Speaker 5 (28:02):
Just a side note, we have a HEBA listeners that
have offered their services and their businesses to be dispatch center. Amazing,
So we are our sticker company is trying to keep
up with the amount and distribution. We've got one that's
going to distribute it straight from theirs. But that's for
everyone that's entered online, for everyone that hasn't and he's
just hearing and maybe doesn't have the time to jump
(28:24):
on or whatever. We're gonna have these dispatch centers around
Melbourne and tomorrow we're going to send them out to them.
Speaker 4 (28:30):
So we'll get a list for.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
You and you can just use that Rebel bass.
Speaker 4 (28:35):
Rebel bases love.
Speaker 5 (28:37):
What I thought also is because these are popular, just
in case, we'll give them a QR code to put
on their business like wherever, and if they run out
of them, people can just use the.
Speaker 2 (28:46):
Car code very very slip yes, enter and.
Speaker 5 (28:50):
We'll send it out to them for being legends. Other
than that, Timy for tomorrow our atwork Timeway.
