Speaker 3 (00:18):
Got anything good?

Speaker 4 (00:19):
Hey?

Speaker 5 (00:20):
This is the Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 1 (00:27):
Tits of today's show.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
I'm going to call it now because this is not
going to be a normal show from us.

Speaker 1 (00:31):
Today.

Speaker 2 (00:32):
Is called a courtesy call because we must just get.

Speaker 1 (00:37):
Into this now.

Speaker 2 (00:37):
Often on the radio shows they just start, we start
talking in and then you discover what we're talking about
midway through the break. I'm now going to tell you
what we're talking about. We're talking about Jack Post leaving
the show.

Speaker 1 (00:48):
This right, I don't know what to say.

Speaker 2 (00:51):
I'll tell you one thing that's very clear. So Jack
and I met up yesterday in this radio studio, and
I wasn't sure what kind of version of you I
was going to see. I was really speechless to see
a ten year younger version of Jack actually held in
Patsy looked his eyes. You had baby eyes, you know
when we're born and you're seeing Gordon like this, and

(01:12):
I saw my daughter's like this. They're just pure light
and loving energy. They're like luminous. That's why I saw
that you had had baby eyes. You looked so happy.

Speaker 6 (01:20):
I think somewhere in your eyes I saw a bit
of jealousy as well.

Speaker 2 (01:23):
I was frightened, like, is this what it looks like
to leave the compound? It was like Jack mcame, Jack Tufrain, No,
I'm Brooks. I must never leave.

Speaker 7 (01:33):
I'm Brooks Compania forever.

Speaker 6 (01:36):
Neither of you are Brooks. You could both last on
the outside.

Speaker 1 (01:39):
You're leaving the show.

Speaker 2 (01:40):
This has been a really intense couple of days. I
asked Jack to take Thursday and Friday off to think
about it.

Speaker 1 (01:46):
He told me he didn't need that time.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
He was still leaving, which is he literally called me
out of the blue with no warning that he was
thinking about leaving within ten days. Wednesday afternoon, and he
actually called the phone call a courtesy call.

Speaker 6 (02:00):
Yeah, I would pick my words again if I could
go back to Wednesday.

Speaker 2 (02:04):
But somehow your language gave you away. We're going to
miss you deep.

Speaker 6 (02:10):
I'm going to miss you guys so much. And it
does feel.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
Abrupt, and I'm glad you're aware.

Speaker 6 (02:16):
I am aware, like I would have wanted it to
finish in a different way. But I leave with nothing
but gratitude and so much love for you guys and
for the show. I really it has been an amazing
period of my life and in some ways surreal to
say goodbye to it. But I can't tell you how
much it means that you guys have been supportive, accepting,

(02:38):
understanding of this decision. And I'm going to miss you
so much.

Speaker 2 (02:42):
We're going to deeply miss you, Jack, and I miss
you every morning because you know, you and I have
built the show link by link, show by chow for
the last and it is a very uniquely Jack departure.
Jack's famous for leaving when we go out very early.
We're two and a half weeks away from marking seven
years of the show. You couldn't even get that.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
You couldn't even get that victory lap. I'll just call
it Friday.

Speaker 6 (03:03):
I've been calling it seven years. But you're right, it's attached.

Speaker 2 (03:07):
Sure, there's always been as to expite the seven years,
you're really fitting that seven years.

Speaker 6 (03:12):
You can round it up to seven years, I think.

Speaker 2 (03:15):
And tell us then because people want to know. You know,
if you listen to the show regular you're a big
part of the show, and people want to know why
you're going. Because it's very easy to walk out and
shows when they're not going very well.

Speaker 1 (03:26):
But the show is number one. Everything is going very well.

Speaker 2 (03:29):
You and I haven't had a fall out with Sandy's
why many shows actually just break apart.

Speaker 1 (03:33):
You know.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
I'm lovingly letting you go. I want you to be free.
I'm going to deeply miss you. But I could tell
that even when we spoke very suddenly last week, this
was a really really heartfelt decision for you.

Speaker 6 (03:46):
Yeah, and it's not something I do lightly. It's not
like I wake up Wednesday morning and go I've had
enough of this. I'm so proud to be leaving where
it is. The show's at number one. I love you
guys deeply. I wish you all the best for the future.
But it's just time for me to go. Something deep
in my gut that I can't even really articulate, you
saying your time has come, and to find out what

(04:09):
is next. I think I have to say goodbye, breathe
some space into my life away from this radio show,
and see what comes next and what creative energy returns
to me in and what I could do after this.
There is no plan There's definitely no Plan A or
Plan B.

Speaker 2 (04:27):
This is a bit of surprising yesterday when I met
Jack over the weekend, because I was concerned I was
I actually said, Jack, you have for money. I was
going to lend him some money for a couple of months.
Jobs around, but it takes real guts and courage to
actually take a leap.

Speaker 6 (04:46):
And you're not going to another job, No, there's nothing planned.
And so what you're gonna do like next week, I
don't know what. All I could think last night I
was going to better is all I could think about
is like next Sunday, I'll just be here in this
same house, sitting across from the same people, but I
won't have anything to do the next day. And it's

(05:08):
scares me, terrifies me, but it also excites me and
fills me with joy. And it's really hard to explain
to people. My parents didn't understand it when I told them.
Many people who I've told over the last couple of
days have been surprised. There is I'm not got a
stepping stone to the next thing, but I'm comfortable with that,
and I'm calm in the fact that I'll wait for

(05:31):
whatever is next.

Speaker 2 (05:32):
It's incredible, I mean, or of your courage to do that. Jack,
to actually have the real courage to listen to your
own life and what it's asking of you. Most of us,
at various times don't listen.

Speaker 1 (05:42):
To that calling. We've deny it for a bit.

Speaker 2 (05:44):
But you actually did slow down and really did listen
to that calling. And you know you've taken a huge
decision for you and also your family as well, because
you know we've spoken a lot on and off air.
You have struggled at times with his as they are
really demanding. They are just demanding ours.

Speaker 6 (05:59):
And I look at you sometimes, I look at you,
guys like you've been in breakfast radio for so much
of your life.

Speaker 1 (06:04):
Pats, when you say, look at us, guys, what exactly
did that mean? Purchase gorgo? You're about to die?

Speaker 6 (06:11):
Please?

Speaker 1 (06:12):
Generation, I thought, is that twenty seventy? Is that ain't
for me?

Speaker 2 (06:14):
I'm leaving just shy of seven of his twenty seven.
I don't want that.

Speaker 6 (06:19):
No, I think it's commendable.

Speaker 1 (06:20):
I think commendable. So let me just pat me on
the head a commendable young mate. John. Yeah, well, shuckers
out of here.

Speaker 6 (06:29):
But really, sometimes it feels like even though in here
and talking to you guys is so much of a joy.
Sometimes when you pull back, the whole thing does feel
like like an endurance challenge, like day after day, week
after week, year after a year doing these hours.

Speaker 2 (06:44):
It took his toll on you, mate, and from route
all the hours.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
Like I'm you're still there with it.

Speaker 6 (06:54):
Last week I thought you were about to jump off
ship as well.

Speaker 1 (06:57):
She was saying, like she's she's got a lot going
on at the moment.

Speaker 2 (07:00):
You didn't hear a Friday when she did the show Cancuss,
so it was hard to tell watch his normal pats
on what's concuss?

Speaker 1 (07:05):
Pats she head by that shower door.

Speaker 6 (07:08):
But sometimes it does feel like running a marathon. And
I'm just at the end of what I can give
and run for this show, even though I love it
so much.

Speaker 1 (07:17):
The toothpaste has been squeezed dry.

Speaker 6 (07:19):
I've squeezed it out, and I can't be happier to
leave it where it is and to still feel the
love you guys are giving to me my support. Thank
you so much.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
Well, we're going to miss you, AMENSI chat big, big
part of my life last seven years. But I still
hope the one day you and I are passed across
we end up working together in some form down the road.

Speaker 6 (07:39):
I feel we will.

Speaker 5 (07:41):
Christian O'Connell show, go on podcast Green Day, Good Reading This.

Speaker 1 (07:46):
Time of your Life.

Speaker 2 (07:46):
Fifteen minutes past six of my friend Jack post to
share some big news for him that he is leaving
the show this Friday after almost seven years. You'll be
a week and a half shot. Perfect way to say
goodbye for now to Jack posts. Lots of people messaging
and saying they're happy and they're going to miss you.

Speaker 1 (08:03):
Jane.

Speaker 6 (08:03):
I'm going to miss everybody who listens to this show. Honestly.
I love meeting people from the show, love talking to
you on the phones in the morning, on air and
off air. I'm really gonna miss everybody who chooses this
as their breakfast show in the morning.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
I you know, when you get news like this about
the breakup of a relationship, you start playing back everything
like wait were they thinking it then? And suddenly at
one point last week I think beatle Jack broken looks
the last thing you and I'll never done together was
beetle Jack, And then twenty four hours later you going,
I'm dumb, mate, Can I finish next Friday?

Speaker 6 (08:41):
Beetle Jack?

Speaker 1 (08:42):
Beetle Jack Beetle Jack.

Speaker 6 (08:44):
I can't tell you how weird it was. So the
Bianker and I my wife have had many conversations over
the past month about about this, and we have been
sea sowing. It has not been an easy decision.

Speaker 1 (08:55):
Because the truth is you almost left the show two
years ago.

Speaker 6 (08:58):
Two years ago, Jack left Patch.

Speaker 1 (08:59):
I don't think anyone else knowses he left and went
I'm going to stay.

Speaker 2 (09:05):
I'm like, this is so so dramatic.

Speaker 1 (09:08):
What please?

Speaker 2 (09:11):
I mean, I like a bit of drama and that
my life, but this is just too much. It's going
He's staying. That's why I asked to see yesterday. Were like,
just to check.

Speaker 1 (09:19):
Do you mean it this time?

Speaker 6 (09:21):
So I feel like I gave you a couple of
times ago so much we're doing that. But on Tuesday
was the final time that and I really looked at
each other and said it, I think I think it's it.
We shed a lot of tears together, we really believe
that it was it. And then I looked at my watchers, like,
in two hours, I got a dressed as a beetle
juice with a magician's top hat and do three magic

(09:43):
tricks strangers.

Speaker 2 (09:46):
To When Jack told me on Wednesday afternoon out of nowhere.
Obviously I'm trying to process just so much. And then
still had to come in Thursday and Friday and do
the show without you. But in a very typical Chack way,
We're talking about everything Thursdays like I really am going
and I was like, okay, well come back in Monday
and that's have a really great week, like we've always
done it. And then Jack goes, think it's right if

(10:09):
I still go to the Mission Impossible creepy sight. I went,
there's a test to how much I can take in
the top one hundred things. After now work out what
I'm going to do, Why don't you go and see
Mission Impossible. It'sn't even on the top one thousand and
Jace went, sorry, mate, I'll see you Monday.

We are about to talk about what happened in Immler Warning.
Warning warning, please turn down this broadcast. Look away from

Over the last two weeks, we've been trying to give
Patsy some feedback. By the way, how are you feeling?
I hear you? You actually and now on Friday you
weren't really quite with it. You gave yourself concushion when

(15:44):
you smashed through the shower.

Speaker 7 (15:45):
Do sharp despite the fact that I had my concussion?

Speaker 6 (15:49):
Really, so you really did have that's awful.

Speaker 1 (15:52):
Have you been to get checked out?

Speaker 7 (15:53):
Yeah, smashed my head on the back of the glass.

Speaker 6 (15:56):
So did you have to do one of those tests
they do players?

Speaker 7 (15:58):
Yeah, I felt a bit nauseous. It wasn't util I
had a headache, but then I felt a bit nauseous
and Christian, I think you should go get checked out.
But anyway, I'm fine.

Speaker 1 (16:05):
I'm fine.

Speaker 7 (16:06):
Just lots of rest on the weekend and back at it.

Speaker 2 (16:08):
Well done, all right, So how are you fit? With feedback?
Is it okay to have this chat? Now?

Speaker 1 (16:13):
About we go?

Speaker 7 (16:13):
Oh yeah, let's do it on here so everyone can hear.
No worries.

Speaker 6 (16:17):
So you're back to normal.

Speaker 1 (16:18):
Then, yeah, without the concussion. All right.

Speaker 2 (16:21):
So we had some very honest feedback for Patsy about
just how she conducts the Formula one News because of
the time difference and the and the race has gone
on in past world. I didn't realize, but a lot
of you like to watch it later. Tough when you
are doing obviously a topical radio show.

Speaker 1 (16:38):
News is news and sport news.

Speaker 2 (16:40):
But Wolfe was a man who first came to us saying, hey,
so anyway, Patsy Cauls changed the wording of it.

Speaker 6 (16:45):
It's Wolfy here quick follow up around the F one
and announcing the winner.

Speaker 1 (16:51):
I've had to wheel in the big guns.

Speaker 9 (16:54):
Hi, Christian, could you please ask Patsy to mention the
winner of the race at the end of the F
one news segment instead of the beginning Hello. That gets
mad when the winner is said without a warning, So please,
please can you help?

Speaker 2 (17:09):
I sincerely hope that Patrina Jones understands well.

Speaker 1 (17:14):
Wolf who won't listen to the news of six mate.

Speaker 7 (17:16):
Max for Steppen has committed his Red Bull Crew after
securing his second Max for Stepens one, Max for Steppen
has commanded his Red Bull Crew. He could have come
last and said, hey, guys, last, well done.

Speaker 2 (17:35):
Those drivers don't do that, all right, They're not high
five and they start throwing their hail with some racing
gloves out. Those poor people in the pit, they don't
go well, now go down.

Speaker 1 (17:44):
I'm for losing it.

Speaker 6 (17:45):
And why would you lead the news with Max? For
steppin his community's team for coming fifth Max Gorn has
commended his side well the obviously beat the Larch yesterday.

Speaker 7 (17:55):
Steppen has commanded his Red Bull crew after securing his
second IF one win of the season, this time at Imola.

Speaker 1 (18:02):
I imagine I've been here for mister Wolfe very soon.

Speaker 5 (18:05):
Good Christian O'Connell show.

Speaker 2 (18:08):
But good morning, it's to Christian O'Connell's show Monday morning.

Speaker 1 (18:11):
Have had a great weekend. Let's get into your life
in pop music.

Speaker 8 (18:16):
Lay to play Listen to songs that remind me of
my life. Go ahead with your own song, tell us
your own.

Speaker 2 (18:28):
Started this about two weeks ago. I was building this
playlist at the moment, going back through every year of
my life. You google the top forty seven singles of
each year of your life.

Speaker 1 (18:36):
You pick a song that meant something too.

Speaker 2 (18:38):
At the time or of it when you were like
two or three, four or five, Just a song you
really like. You've got this huge mega playlist that really
is your life in pop music and then we're picking
some songs from your playlist, And today it's Amanda born
in nineteen eighty two, manages an Airbnb. She got two kids,
thirteen year old Abbey and ten year old Josh. When
Amanda was a kid, she had Backstreet Boys and in

(18:59):
Sync posters on her walls. Despite strict Greek Mama not
approving of that favorite gig, Fluid mac Here at Rod
Labor in twenty fourteen, one of the only time recently
that all five of them were touring together.

Speaker 1 (19:11):
You're lucky to be in there on that.

Speaker 2 (19:13):
All right, Just find out what's one song Amanda's going
to play for us this morning.

Speaker 4 (19:16):
The first time I ever heard this song was when
I was about twenty. I had had a big night
out and I was coming home on the night Rider,
which is a bus that you catch when you two
poor to get a taxi home. Ever since hearing it
that night, I've loved the song. It's got a very
cool energy, and it just takes me back to those
late nights and early Sunday mornings on the night Rider

(19:37):
at a time when I had very little money, but
I was very happy.

Speaker 1 (19:41):
For years. When I first moved to London.

Speaker 2 (19:42):
I was using the night rider there and it's full
of like you know, when you couldn't afford to get home,
you couldn't fall of a taxi.

Speaker 1 (19:47):
There was that bus and it was full of.

Speaker 2 (19:49):
Night walkers, drunks, serial killers, poor innocent shift workers. It
was too much going on. That was every and Friday,
Saturday night for three years of my life.

Speaker 6 (20:00):
That was my Yeah, my from eighteen to like twenty five,
the night rider on weekends, on the hour, every hour
on the city. It doesn't exist anymore, it doesn't a
moment rider.

Speaker 2 (20:09):
No. I feel so sorry for the drivers of those buses,
honestly taking their lives. And that one of my close
friends met his wife on a night boss.

Speaker 6 (20:17):
That's a red flower.

Speaker 2 (20:18):
I know, I know, and they're still together like eighteen
years later. But yeah, you think how many people actually
now there were plenty people hooking up but actually getting married.
Someone who met drunk on a bus at three am
with the other night walkers and drifters and serial killers.

Speaker 1 (20:34):
All right, this is the song that she was talking about.

Speaker 4 (20:36):
It's Amanda and the nineteen eighty seven I've Chosen Electric Blue.

Speaker 5 (20:40):
By Ihout Christian O'Connell show go on podcast.

Speaker 2 (20:46):
We've started a new thing my life in pop music.
You make a playlist and share with me from all
your favorite songs from every year of your life. We
picked two years and play the songs. This is Amanda
ice House Electric Blue Jack remembers seeing something on a
night rider.

Speaker 1 (21:00):
She was on the night rider when she first heard
this song.

Speaker 6 (21:03):
Those nightriders were scary places to.

Speaker 2 (21:05):
Be, so they don't exist anymore now, they don't exist.

Speaker 6 (21:07):
When they brought into four hour train network into Melbourne,
they got rid of the night rider, but it wouldn't
start until I reckon one p here. The one am
was the first one that left after the trains had finished.
I saw a guy in a business suit after a
big night once throw up into his own hands and
cup it until he got to his style.

Speaker 2 (21:26):
Disgusting, but there's something there's still some air of decency
about that.

Speaker 1 (21:33):
Chunder Chalice.

Speaker 6 (21:34):
It's not on the bus. No, it's not on the
this is my burden.

Speaker 2 (21:38):
Yes, this is something biblical about it, the chunder chalice.
You know, I remember seeing the night riding in London once,
like two or three a m of a Sunday morning,
after a Saturday night, and this guy was. It was
winter time, so it was like really bitterly cold, and
you could see this this yet this guy did not
look very well, like you knew that Chunder was coming.

(21:59):
And I was like, looking out the window, I can't
can't see that. I'll start to try even wretch seeing it.
And I remember just a corner of my eye seeing
him cut up his jumper and throw up into his
own jumper, classic moves, and then he just had to
sit there with like a chunda vest.

Speaker 6 (22:15):
But again he's done that.

Speaker 1 (22:19):
Thank you for doing.

Speaker 2 (22:20):
That, Amanda, Thank you very much for provoking these beautiful
memories and sharing of people gendering on the night Rider.
Cool in if you've got any chunder memories on the
night Rider? All right, Amanda, what's your next song?

Speaker 3 (22:31):
For me?

Speaker 4 (22:32):
This takes me back to a time when my kids
were really little and not everything that came out of
my mouth was annoying to them. And they love the
Trolls movie, which of course featured this song. And when
I hear the song, I can just remember them sitting
on the couch, bundled up under a doner watching this
movie and I can still hear see giggles for twenty sixteen.

(22:53):
I've chosen Can't Stop the Feeling.

Speaker 5 (22:55):
By Justin Timberlake Christian O'Connell show go on podcast.

Speaker 2 (23:01):
Christian and joined the show this morning. Very sad to
see it here that Jack is leaving the show. Yes,
we announced an hour ago that Jack is going to
is finishing his time on the show. He goes with
our full hearts and blessings. But he's done something which
is very, very hard to do in life. He's making
a courageous decision to listen to the callings that I
think have been in there for a while, and he's

(23:21):
going when things are good, and he's going to.

Speaker 1 (23:24):
This is still a bit I could not do. To nothing.

Speaker 6 (23:27):
Nothing. I don't know. I truly don't know what's next.

Speaker 2 (23:30):
Well, now, the night bus, the night Rider is still running.
It's a really Erica just send us lovely miss saying
she's going to miss you and wish you the best. Chris,
I'm a bus driver drove the night Rider this very
weekend in the suburbs. They still are in operation. I
didn't know that, Erica.

Speaker 6 (23:48):
I thought the idea was from the city to the subject. Yes,
why are you going suburb.

Speaker 2 (23:51):
Yes, Erica, please get back to us. This is a
lovely email as well. If you want to say something
to Jack, don't bother emailing him.

Speaker 6 (24:01):
He's never checked his email in almost seven years. Literally
email me and I'll read it's the mad okay, but
this is a lovely email from Lee in Greensborough.

Speaker 1 (24:12):
More than Christian, Pats and Jack. Wow.

Speaker 2 (24:14):
Just trying to absorb the big news from Jack this morning.
Been listening to the show since the early days. It
feels like I'm losing a friendship, which sounds a bit
weird now I get that, Lee, but can only wish
Jack and Bianca all the us going forward. I've enjoyed
shadow when Jack Shad is IVF journey and still remember
there when he told you on air that Bianca was pregnant.
Ps Rio and Caitlyn would be great as Jack's. They've

(24:36):
done this replacement. I don't know why you put that
in inverted commas. Is that a slur at Jack? Then
there's a lot going on right now and trying to process.
Please slow everything down as love it when they filled
him before on the show Lee. That's very very Oh
that comes from actually producer.

Speaker 5 (24:51):
Gatling Christian Connell show podcast.

Speaker 2 (24:56):
Christian just heard about Jack leaving will certainly leave shoes
to fill.

Speaker 1 (25:00):
I don't know if you've deliberately left off big shoes.

Speaker 2 (25:03):
I'm not going to run all this week and only
refer to it as he's leaving shoes to fill.

Speaker 6 (25:07):
You know, the term is definitely big shoes to fill.
The shoes to field doesn't mean anything.

Speaker 1 (25:13):
I prefer shoes to fill. There are shoes to fill.

Speaker 6 (25:16):
He's less shoes in the changing.

Speaker 2 (25:17):
Reaction, indeterminate size. It's a sliding scale. I wonder if
this isn't Jack's way of announcing beetle Chack the tour
coming to Anara.

Speaker 1 (25:28):
Cell near you. Listen. I actually fear that that's all
broke our boy. That and then the bombers over the weekend.
What have you said?

Speaker 2 (25:34):
One of you said that those checkers die our bombs fan.
This is a big overreaction.

Speaker 1 (25:39):
That's it. Radio career is over. That's Zach Merrett and
the Bollers. I tell you what is incredible? Right?

Speaker 2 (25:46):
What of you this morning? That's just saying, hey, didn't
that psychic rita last year call this and she did so?
I said, I think it was in September time, it
was April, so just over a year ago, all of
you went to see Rita the Psychic, and.

Speaker 6 (26:00):
I remember her saying many things, one that all our
plumbing was about to die or something was going to
happen with our plumbing, that Caitlin had ten knives in
her back, and then I had forgotten what had been
said about me.

Speaker 1 (26:13):
Listen to this.

Speaker 6 (26:14):
The biggest one I got my time at my current
workplace is temporary.

Speaker 2 (26:19):
Now, I swear at the time I laughed that the
plumbing stuff, but that is thirteen months ago.

Speaker 1 (26:26):
You reach out. The psydekicks saw it.

Speaker 6 (26:28):
The biggest one I got, my time at my current
workplace is temporary.

Speaker 1 (26:34):
Do you think that's quite chilling? Yeah, that's incredible.

Speaker 2 (26:37):
If you do want a message for Jack, email me
Christian at Christian O'Connell dot com dot au. Right now,
we want to find out were you in a band
at school?

Speaker 1 (26:45):
You were in a band at school?

Speaker 10 (26:46):
I was.

Speaker 6 (26:46):
We were punk band when I was fifteen. We did
punk covers and we had a few originals, including an
anti George Bush song, Wow Green.

Speaker 1 (26:56):
Day, Stick It to the Man. Do you know many
of the lyrics?

Speaker 6 (27:02):
It was called f you Bush and.

Speaker 2 (27:05):
Handle one of those parental advisories New Green Bridge on
me at the front of your CD cover, and that.

Speaker 6 (27:14):
Made up most of the chorus of the song. We
also had another song which I've only written the chorus
to and hadn't written the verse two. And when we
played live on stage, and this is the only CD
recording I have of the band playing, I just made
up the verse while I was on stage. It was
like one, two, three, five, don't know what's up?

Speaker 1 (27:37):
And what was the band called?

Speaker 6 (27:39):
Last Chance?

Speaker 1 (27:41):
Actually a good name. That's a good name. Rio?

Speaker 2 (27:43):
What was your So you were in these school? You
were in a band at school? Chili Pepper's covers?

Speaker 6 (27:47):
Yes, we did Chili Peppers covers?

Speaker 1 (27:49):
And did you find any audio? Did mumbledown get is this?

Speaker 8 (27:52):
I know there's a DVD because I do remember. We
did a Battle of the Band in year ten. Our
band name was called ten Genius.

Speaker 6 (28:02):
Because you're in ten. Well, the only thing you really
need to get right as a cover band is a club.
I saw recently a Powder Finger cover band called Pull
My Finger, and I just saw that and I thought,
that's so good that even if you weren't wanting to be.

Speaker 1 (28:16):
So good, I'm here with that guy. That's so embarrassing. Wow,
geniuses in plain view.

Speaker 8 (28:25):
I remember coming out for the first performance and I
was like, I want to have a really cool intro, like,
you know, like some crowd work. So I plan to
say watch your heads, everybody, because we're about to tear
the roof off. Which is embarrassing enough, but my voice.

Speaker 2 (28:41):
My backside is actually sweating just now the cringe of
anyone actually saying that out loud.

Speaker 8 (28:45):
My voice is also breaking at the time. You wash
your heads, everybody, because we're about to tear the roof off.

Speaker 6 (28:54):
This this sucker.

Speaker 1 (28:59):
Under the bridge.

Speaker 6 (29:01):
That well, my've experienced. First live show that we played,
we didn't even get to play to a crowd when
we started. So they put us on as a first band,
and they said we want a band. It's playing as
we open the doors and people are coming into the venue.
So when we first got on stage, there was nobody
in the audience. I couldn't even say something witty.

Speaker 1 (29:20):
To the crowd.

Speaker 2 (29:22):
All right, were you in a band at school? Give
us a call and don't forget shoes to.

Speaker 5 (29:26):
Feel Christian O'Connell show go on podcast.

Speaker 2 (29:31):
Christian, I wasn't about at school, like Jant was saying.
We spent way too much time, Tony be clever with
the band name cover your Ears. So when they were
introduced ladies and gentlemen, cover your.

Speaker 6 (29:44):
Ears, they're going to be loud, yeah.

Speaker 2 (29:47):
If they go Yeah, too much time thinking about a
cute name. Laurie, good morning, welcome to the show.

Speaker 11 (29:53):
Good morning. How you guys doing.

Speaker 2 (29:55):
Yeah, we're good, Laurie, thanks for corning. And so you
were in a band at school.

Speaker 11 (29:59):
Yes, and I had an absolute shocker. So I'm literally
doing a talent.

Speaker 10 (30:06):
Quest for by.

Speaker 11 (30:08):
It was actually going to be a comedy act, but
at the last minute we changed to being doing a
poison nothing but a good time, and we weren't musicians yet,
so cardboard guitars. What ended up happening was we had
everything rehearsed and the singer accidentally turned his mic on
and started singing that I lost to drumstick and myself,

(30:32):
who was supposed to do a big sister kick during
the song, fell flat on my butt and right in
front of the crowd, and we actually ended up coming
second because everyone thought we were a comedy act and
we were out.

Speaker 6 (30:47):
The way you described it felt like a red Faces.

Speaker 2 (30:49):
Yeah, it's getting tens across the board in the studio here.

Speaker 1 (30:53):
I'm impressed with.

Speaker 11 (30:54):
The serious But the funny thing is that I actually
ended up becoming a musician. So I'm actually a self
taught guitarist for thirty five years now in a cover band,
so with Gravity six so loving it.

Speaker 1 (31:09):
And what songs do you cover? Rock songs?

Speaker 6 (31:11):
Or we cover everything.

Speaker 11 (31:12):
From Billie Idle to Abba to newer stuff. But yeah,
have been doing that on the side for a lot
of guitar for a fair while. But yeah, doing this
band now, so we're currently performing. But yeah, interesting twists
to everything.

Speaker 2 (31:28):
Now tell me this right, and your opinion on this too,
chat right, I've been thinking I would like.

Speaker 1 (31:32):
To learn a musical instrument, right, I have a love
Do you think.

Speaker 2 (31:34):
You can go from zero to learning to play the
guitar at decent level or my better picking drums or
a piano.

Speaker 11 (31:41):
No, absolutely, I'm self taught.

Speaker 1 (31:43):
Yeah, he is.

Speaker 11 (31:46):
The thing that I suggest is number one, play stuff
that you're passionate about that always helps, and pretty much
just get a good set up guitar because it's a
difference between driving a playing and Diana Ferrari. But you
can definitely learn.

Speaker 6 (32:02):
I used to actually been guitar, Laurie, he didn't pick
up any oldocoustic guitars. Have to go out and buy
Gibson or.

Speaker 1 (32:11):
Tomorrow because expectations.

Speaker 6 (32:14):
All of a sudden, he's paying two and a half
thousand dollars for something you.

Speaker 2 (32:17):
I'm jamming with Oasis when they're here in October.

Speaker 11 (32:21):
Often with the guys, get a cheat the target, get
it set up. That's the difference.

Speaker 2 (32:26):
Great stuff there, Laurie, Thanks mate, real do you think
I could do it?

Speaker 1 (32:30):
Do you learning drums?

Speaker 6 (32:32):
Before Laurie said that, I was I was going to say,
maybe start with piano because it's a little easier to
get into the.

Speaker 1 (32:37):
Yeah, why is guitar harder than piano?

Speaker 6 (32:39):
Well, guitar you've got to learn music and then technically
figure out your fingers in the strings, whereas pianos learn music,
but then you just push down on a key and
that's pretty Do you think drums is then drums you
don't have to really learn the drums And thank you.

Speaker 5 (32:52):
Good chat the Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 1 (32:56):
Right now, were you in a band at school? Now?

Speaker 2 (32:58):
A lot of drummers are contact to me. They didn't
like your words saying drums are the easiest thing to learn.

Speaker 1 (33:03):
Christian. Drums are not easy.

Speaker 2 (33:06):
I have a drummer sign who tried teaching the family
poly rhythms.

Speaker 1 (33:10):
What are those?

Speaker 6 (33:12):
I actually don't know, But what I said is you don't.
You don't have to learn music. You only have to
learn rhythm. With drums, you only need to know the notes.

Speaker 1 (33:18):
Would you know how to do this?

Speaker 12 (33:20):
Try?

Speaker 1 (33:20):
Christian?

Speaker 2 (33:20):
Try tapping a four beat with your left hand, a
three beat with your right hand, and a two beat
with your right foot, all the same time, as like
dividing your body into four and having them all work
independently but together.

Speaker 1 (33:32):
I don't think you can learn a musical instrument over
SMS text.

Speaker 2 (33:35):
I think you need to actually a proper inputson lessons Richard. Okay,
we're asking if you were in a band at school, Cupo,
you were good.

Speaker 1 (33:43):
Morning, Good morning, Christian.

Speaker 10 (33:45):
How are you now?

Speaker 2 (33:46):
It's just the right Are we getting your name right?
Often the producers misspeller? Is it Coupo?

Speaker 10 (33:51):
That is correct?

Speaker 12 (33:51):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (33:52):
Good, okay, Coupo. Tell us about the band name.

Speaker 12 (33:54):
First of all, at school, we're a fairly studious band
and we're called When Colic High School was an institution
of wellness and great learning. And we're a rock band,
a five place rock band called MTD spelt what let's
stand for Minor Technical Difficulties.

Speaker 1 (34:14):
A great new radio quiz. We don't know we were
in the bad n.

Speaker 10 (34:18):
Ninety three I think uh uh and uh. Most of
our band members hung around the library at lunchtime. So
and we will soon recognized as Meet the Dorks. So
we had to we had to.

Speaker 1 (34:29):
Have as a great name. I love that band name.

Speaker 10 (34:34):
I was pretty happy with Meet the Dorks. It sort
of gave us a bit of a rolled off the
tongue a bit, but anyway, I was. The band lasted
about twelve months. We tried to change the band name
to a brand of vodka, a Swedish vodka or a
Russian vodka, something called tazas a Bitch or something. Anyway,
it was a great time in my life. And thirty

(34:54):
thirty two years later, here I am. We've started a
band again. Great come out of Michelle.

Speaker 6 (34:59):
Good for you.

Speaker 1 (34:59):

to get together because their guitarist is from Canada and.

your kids?

Speaker 3 (35:40):

he had to grade sixty and a bunch of his
mates formed the band to play at my fortieth birthday.

Speaker 1 (35:48):
Oh my god, that's so cute. Were they good?

Speaker 3 (35:51):
Oh that was fabulous? Well I thought they were. They
were really really good. They had a guitarist and singer.
My son was the drummer and yes it is hard
to learn question, and my niece sang one of the songs.
And even their music teacher joined in as well.

Speaker 1 (36:07):
And what did they do? Did they sing some of
favorite songs?

Speaker 3 (36:10):
Well they did. They did some covers for Tenacious D,
Stephen Wolf, they did Adele.

Speaker 1 (36:24):
That's that serious range that is.

How are you guys?

So you're in a school band.

Speaker 13 (36:49):
I was in a very well rehearsed heavy metal band
called bad Omen in high school.

Speaker 2 (36:54):
Yes, it sounds like a big heavy sounds of bad Omen.

Speaker 13 (36:58):
It was look at the I didn't necessarily have a
bad gig. It may have been bad for everyone else.
My high school teacher said we could play at the
end of your concent in year twelve, and she didn't know.
But the song went for about eight and a half
minutes drum solo, semar guitar solos. When we stopped in
the middle of the drum solo, everyone you know sighed
a sigh of relief that it was over, only for

(37:19):
us to count back in and.

Just a breather.

Honestly, I'm looking forward to next Sunday night and coen
to sleep knowing that there's no alarm the next morning
and I just get to sleep in. But sure, I'll
keep abreast of what you guys are doing.

Speaker 1 (42:32):
Very very much.

Speaker 2 (42:33):
But if you ever listening and you're like, I've got
a story from that, would you call me?

Speaker 6 (42:37):
I would? But you know what would really break my
heart is that if I was one of those callers
who and then the producers told me, you know what,
it's really good. We don't have time to put you
on one email.

Speaker 1 (42:47):
Christian.

Speaker 2 (42:49):
So yesterday you went off to see the Tigers game
against the North.

Speaker 6 (42:54):
Yes, so I did something that you never meant to do,
and that is support another football team. Since I was
five years old, I have been black and red. I don't.
This is not a reflection of what happened to the
bombers on Saturday night, though that was difficult to watch.
I took my brother to a North Melbourne game and
I got caught up in this spirit. I wore a

(43:15):
North Melbourne beanie. And because I've been playing golf, I
made friends with this guy, Bailey Scott. He plays for
North Melbourne. He's a lovely guy. I played golf with
him and he invited us to the games to come
down to the rooms afterwards, so he got us the tickets.
I'm sitting with his girlfriend on.

Speaker 2 (43:31):
My other side, coming down to like the changing rooms.

Speaker 6 (43:33):
After the game, we went down to the change rooms.
So we me and my brother and it's his birthday,
Like perfect weekend he's been and he's been a lifelong
North Melbourne supporter. Sitting with all the wags. Though they
don't like that term. They prefer the word partners.

Speaker 2 (43:47):
And the funny how they don't like that abusive term men.

Speaker 6 (43:51):
Of it just means I didn't know it's derogatory when
I used it, But they actually said we don't like
that term. We don't use it. And the parents of
all the players and it was watching such a sweet
way to watch a football game with people's parents going
like yes, yes, oh he did it. Oh he'll be
so happy with that. That kind of stuff under.

Speaker 1 (44:10):
You know, I don't think I've ever heard their song
as well, because.

Speaker 6 (44:12):
It's not it's not one that gets snapped.

Speaker 2 (44:15):
Already played that much. So there's fires up and you
make your way down to the How do you get
in there?

Speaker 12 (44:22):
So?

Speaker 1 (44:22):
Is there a list that you're on?

Speaker 6 (44:24):
There? You have to wear a special arm band that
his partner gave me. We shuffle into this lift. It
goes down to the players rooms. I've never been into
the rooms with the or anybody perform. And I've got
my beady on. I can see that the players are ecstatic.
This is only the.

Speaker 2 (44:40):
Second of you on TV because they film a lot
of that stuff their ages down there.

Speaker 6 (44:44):
North Melbourne hasn't won a game at the MCG since
twenty seventeen. What this is their first winter?

Speaker 1 (44:52):
Are you? There's me goal hanger sunny parching with you.

Speaker 6 (44:56):
Got to say, I got absolutely caught up in the moment.
I'm singing the song Oh you can't do this, hugging strangers,
I'm hugging players as if North Melbourne has been my
team since I was.

Speaker 1 (45:06):
A little bit, like high five in them all.

Speaker 6 (45:09):
I think because of the emotion of the week, and
it has been an emotional weekend. I knew I was
leaving the SHI and us say goodbye. I almost cried
in the.

Speaker 1 (45:17):
Northbourne rooms at the team. You don't support for a.

Speaker 6 (45:20):
Team, I'd never care about.

Speaker 1 (45:21):
What's it like down there? Massive?

Speaker 6 (45:23):
It's so cool. No, the rooms is smaller than you think, right,
And then all the friends and family and partners and
kids gather around behind this rope so that the team
can hold it together and sing their song.

Speaker 1 (45:36):
So were you in there for that bit when they're
all do it with you on the circle?

Speaker 6 (45:38):
I'm in there for that bit as they're singing the song.
And then after the song they high five, hug and
disperse each to their family members and go and say
hello and like patting each other on the back, and
it's just such a great moment. I hope to one
day experience it with the bombers of the team I
actually barrack for. But it's still something old treasure.

Speaker 2 (45:56):
And I always wonder, like, why have they got such
cheap garden? Furniture down there, right, Yeah, it's the mecha
of sport. Let alone in Melbourne of it to but
in Australia the mcg is an amazing place.

Speaker 6 (46:06):
But with that cheap ass garden for the doll white
chairs that they're all shat.

Speaker 1 (46:11):
Around on and some that you watch like the EPL.

Speaker 2 (46:14):
They've all got these like Formula one sort of contoured
racing driver seats.

Speaker 6 (46:18):
Yes, and there's I don't know why they have this,
but when they go in, only the players are and
staff are allowed to go into this meeting. Afterwards they
put the rest of us behind a big net. Have
you ever seen the level like a fishing net, to
make sure that we don't swim through to the meeting.

Speaker 1 (46:34):
And then what happened afterwards? Did you go and party
with them?

Speaker 12 (46:37):
No?

Speaker 6 (46:38):
I could work tomorrows commitment The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 2 (46:45):
Oh my god, I'm not crying. You are crying scenes today.
Jack announced a couple of hours ago that he's leaving
the show and he finishes with us this Friday, and
something extraordinary. I mean we're only found out last Wednesday
that this is what he wanted to do, and he's
actually done an Instagram post about the show, and in

(47:06):
my mind that is the only one stood about the show.

Speaker 1 (47:08):
Seven years. We talk about it a lot behind his back.
When will the day come?

Speaker 2 (47:13):
Only when he's saying goodbye, when he dare to mention
this grubby little show. H and A are on there
a lot not this show. He's never liked us, he's
never accepted us.

Speaker 1 (47:22):
Goddamn it. The clues were there all along.

Speaker 2 (47:24):
I've been in a loveless marriage with you, some beautiful sponsor,
my listeners.

That's from Carl and a lot of people. Jack, you're

(48:10):
such a likable and open character on the show.

Speaker 1 (48:17):

it quiet for us. You know these secret millionaires, right,

I said, you know, what are you going to do?

Speaker 1 (48:45):
He said, nothing. I just want to just out.

Speaker 2 (48:47):
Let's just let this go away and then see what happens,
which is a beautiful and smart, courageous thing to do.

Speaker 1 (48:52):

money and stuff like that. He goes, we live pretty frugently,
And you're right.

The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

what's really happened here? He's found that bitcoin at last,
isn't he? Oh my god, you're right. For years he
couldn't find that bitcoin.
