Five minutes past six. So Wednesday morning, goome on and
Jackie Boy, Good morning, Good on in, Pats Morning, Sat Patsy.
How was last night your talked to school?

Speaker 4 (00:28):
Yeah, Audrey, they had jack all the musical students and
the boys students had a little concert interview concert at
school last night. And it was the first time, like
Audi has played her violin and stuff before, but it's
the first time we've actually seen her do a solo
performance of singing.

Speaker 2 (00:43):
Great she's given away the violin now yeah, Yeah, it's
up in the top cupboard.

Speaker 3 (00:50):
That top covered where that everything needs to go.

Speaker 4 (00:52):
Yes, And judging by some of the violin performances yesterday,
it took me back.

Speaker 5 (00:57):
It was almost like a traumatic experience.

Speaker 3 (01:00):
It's either really good or really bad. There's there's no
medium with the violin, is there. It's not a very
forgiving instrument. So what was this? It wasn't a school player.
I think it's one of those sort of ends of
the school year production.

Speaker 4 (01:11):
Yeah, it was a showcase of what they've been working
on all year essentially, But it.

Speaker 3 (01:17):
Kind of where you sat row one, two or three?
What do you think not Frona, I.

Speaker 4 (01:22):
Oh no, no, no, oh no.

Speaker 3 (01:25):
I'm afraid there is Oh no, because I always go
third row. That's enough, okay, but my wife and I
always The people in the front are.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
Pats Patsy's pulled some deck chairs onto the stage.

Speaker 3 (01:39):
She's got her own throat as well. She's elevated, she's
got one of those cherry pickers so she can get
a good look.

Speaker 5 (01:44):
No one, I'm sure you see. It's hard to see
over over the dead.

Speaker 3 (01:47):
To take one of those little booster seats.

Speaker 5 (01:49):
Yeah, that's right that you get at the cinema.

Speaker 3 (01:51):
So how does she get on? What was she singing?

Speaker 4 (01:53):
She sang stand Up, a song called stand Up by
Cynthia in Row or Envirol or something. It was like
a gospel sort of song. Oh wow, But it took
us back because, honestly, Hannah, my heart, we've only heard
her sing in the shower, Like, we had no idea.
Everyone sings in the shower, right, So I sat there
and thought this would be great.

Speaker 5 (02:13):
You know, we were so proud of her. It takes
a lot to perform.

Speaker 4 (02:15):
Especially on your own in front of a room strangers
and your peers.

Speaker 2 (02:19):
She wasn't with the rest of the crew.

Speaker 5 (02:21):
No, she was a solo.

Speaker 4 (02:24):
So we said, you know what, if you forget the songs,
it doesn't matter. The fact is you're getting up there
and showcasing what you've worked on all year. We're proud
of you. Whatever you do, it doesn't matter. Just get up,
enjoy it and embrace be proud.

Speaker 5 (02:36):
Of what you've achieved this year.

Speaker 4 (02:38):
Anyway, so she starts singing a bit of a shaky start,
of course, that all the kids were nervous.

Speaker 3 (02:42):
It's nice to hear to critique that on the show
as well, that we just had two minutes. It doesn't
matter if you forget the song, but you know, it's
shaky stuff.

Speaker 5 (02:52):
Was she was nervous? Is what I want to say.

Speaker 3 (02:54):
Well, probably because she's about what mom was going to
say on a radio show. Mother and Dad.

Speaker 2 (02:59):
The voice charge turning the chairs around is the.

Speaker 3 (03:01):
Only one with a notepath. I probably just like nodding
a headlight. We'll talk about that later. Did you hear that, Chris?

Speaker 5 (03:07):
I thought we'd covered this off.

Speaker 4 (03:09):
No, but and then all of a sudden she just
opens her pipes and there's a voice there that we
didn't know existed. She did so well, how lovely for
you all, really powerful voice. Because I said to her, look,
my only my only advice, darling, would be, just make
sure that I know you'll be nervous, but project your voice.
I always say to her, if she's got to speak

(03:31):
at school or whatever, just so people can hear you,
make sure that you project. Yes, mum, But she really did.
She's got quite a good voice. She's got a good pitch.
We're so proud of her.

Speaker 3 (03:45):
You're not a theater critic, shaky start. Quite a good.

Speaker 5 (03:49):
Voice, I'm saying, she's got God.

Speaker 3 (03:51):
She took my advice as well. Anyway, get in.

Speaker 2 (03:55):
The car, you two her encouraged.

Speaker 3 (04:00):
No a mirror, mirror, many a mirror. Were just repeating
back what you're saying. But it must have been amazing.
How does she fell afterwards?

Speaker 4 (04:09):
She mustn't to create h Yeah she was to all
the kids did they felt on top of the world
and just they were so nervous but getting up there.
I was so proud of all of them, and you
know what Christian watching them. I haven't seen because she's
a bus traveler. I'm not at school a lot like
Chris and I might go once a term, so you
don't see.

Speaker 5 (04:26):
The kids growing up.

Speaker 3 (04:28):
No.

Speaker 4 (04:28):
No, she's all with these kids that she started prep
reception with, and they all you recognize them. They all
look the same, but they're about fifty.

Speaker 3 (04:36):
When you see them and the end of the year thing,
you start to wor ze how quickly it's going. I
always used to imagine, I wonder what was going to happen,
what's going to lie I had for them in like ten, fifteen,
twenty years time? What happens from this moment? And also
it's lovely when your kids surprise you. You've had this
with even Gordy recently. You know where they You come
home some days and they're slightly different than when you

(04:57):
left just twelve hours ago. But I so imagine they're
sat there, you and Chris, and you see that part
of her when she's singing, You go. You actually don't
know that they had it in them. It's the best,
isn't it? A parent?

Speaker 5 (05:06):
It is it's almost like, oh, is that that's my child?

Speaker 4 (05:09):
Like she's you know what it is jackets when they
start to grow into who they are and sort of
just finding their fields that they're interested in and just
trying everything, all everything that's on offer at school and
doing all these different things. But yeah, seeing them all
up there, because they're all high school next year, so
they've been together, what is it seven six?

Speaker 3 (05:29):
It is like an end of an era.

Speaker 5 (05:31):
Yeah, it is, and.

Speaker 4 (05:32):
I think, oh, and you can just see them growing
into adults. They've lost that little child. Look now they're
starting to grow up.

Speaker 5 (05:38):
And it was yeah, it was lovely.

Speaker 3 (05:39):
Ah. Same, But that's shaky start, though, isn't it. You know?

Speaker 2 (05:44):
Pretty good thing.

Speaker 3 (05:45):
I ever told you before. I couldn't hear any of that.
Always follow her project.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
Project the Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 3 (05:53):
So yesterday after the show, Jackie boy was out of
here quickly. That's not the story that's every day. But Yester,
you actually had a hot date with your your in
laws at the moment from America.

Speaker 2 (06:05):
Yes, and we took him to the langem Hotel.

Speaker 3 (06:07):
Thank you to from Venezuela. They've they've got a band
in this morning. They're playing live for us now right now?
Is this real Venezuelan from the Venezuelan Society of Melbourne.

Speaker 2 (06:17):
Sounds like Mexican head dance, similar part of the world,
so maybe they got to share some similar instruments. They
want to funny that we're playing that because I actually
said the way that I've depicted Venezuelans on the show
by calling them a force of nature and heavy impact

(06:38):
on the family as they've been in our houses.

Speaker 3 (06:40):
Yeah, they're a very pro family, positive, passionate. They move
as one.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
Imagine a big bear hug and you're not allowed to
get out of Venezuelan bear hugs. I can't breathe. It's
a big bear hug. And they just wanted to let
Melbourne know, Hey, Venezuelans aren't crazy. We just love our family.

Speaker 3 (06:58):
Have been held hostage right now. I didn't even know
what's happening. They just want Melbourne to know. Have they
seen our listenership. I mean it's a decent sized show.
We certainly don't address all of Melbourne. And you told
them that you're the mayor of Melbourne. I go into
a building and I address my people.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
What happened is on their way to the Langham. Yes,
say they tuned into the show, and I've been speaking
candidly about thank you for speaking about what it's like
to happen.

Speaker 3 (07:30):
That outgoing bots of Optus. Hi Jack, he's actually sweating now.
All those Venezuelan's gotten now, I know that they know
they're threatening you with the flute.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
They know the frequency now, so I'm just worried that
at any moment they could be tuning in.

Speaker 3 (07:43):
You know the frequency now with all these people, any
moment Christian, they can tune in.

Speaker 2 (07:49):
So I sat down at breakfast with them. The first
thing they said is like, oh, you know, very funny,
funny what you're saying about Venezuelan's and us on the
radio show. But please let them know we're not crazy.
We want Melbourne where we just love our family.

Speaker 3 (08:02):
Melvine cool In say you got that.

Speaker 2 (08:04):
So now that I've got that across for all of us,
I also want to say I had such a delicious
and lovely breakfast with my in laws yesterday and nothing
went wrong and everything was.

Speaker 3 (08:16):
Perfect, great, and did they love it? So she took
them to the Langham, which is lovely there. Andre is
a big friend of our show as well, and so
what they have the breakfast buffet, breakfast buffet.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
Everybody was happy, everybody ate well, thumbs up.

not because most of my Christmas shopping is already done
by now.

Speaker 3 (08:57):
Amazing. I don't understand being that organized.

Speaker 5 (09:00):
Ants stand the shopping centers.

Speaker 3 (09:01):
So you're stress free over the next couple of weeks.

Speaker 4 (09:03):
I wouldn't say completely stress free, but I figured with
the end of school and work and everything, I don't
need to add to the mixed shopping centers and Christmas shopping.

Speaker 3 (09:13):
I was doing something yesterday and my mother in law
called me right, And my mother in law, what she
mainly lives to do is watch Sky News, and that
is pure truth. It's pure truth. And so most conversations
like my mother are big than this. Apparently China are alone,
Like here we go when I go around and see her.
It's almost like she's barricaded waiting for the Chinese invasion.

army around there. They would take me alive anyway. She
rings me yesterday. She goes, you take advance of Black

The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 3 (19:19):
Every day this week, we're inviting two of you to
come in on the show live and take each other on.
I'll give you ten seconds to give you an immediate
category and you just got a name. As many things
as you can that ten seconds, you're taking each other on.
There's two of you. Who ever does it the best?
When's one thousand dollars right every single spend online at
Cogan dot com. So we had two people to line
up today and Mary is already here. She got her

(19:41):
nice and early at quarterbas six. James was the other contestant, okay,
and he'd called us said I'd love to do this.
We said, great, can you come on Wednesday? All good?
Half six? He calls and apparently he's broken down on
the West Gate. He's then apparently waiting for the RACV.
Apparently he can't. He can't beat us because they are
acvre there and this is where the trail runs cold.

(20:04):
We haven't heard from them since this, says to me,
he's crap the bed.

Speaker 2 (20:08):
Yeah, actually we can have anyone's driving over the West Gate. Now,
is there a car pulled over somewhere with the men
that looks like James?

Speaker 3 (20:15):
Yeah? Yeah, I work like James. James like he ain't
coming in. He's not right because hu'd call by now.
I was actually thinking maybe I was sending one on
the team to go and pick him up or something.
You know, I both spoke service, but he's he's not
returning calls, so he isn't coming in, which means Mary
needs a playmate. All right, Mary needs to take somebody

(20:35):
on so she can compete to try and win the
one thousand bucks. So if you can get here to
where we are in Richmond in the next twenty three minutes, okay,
so you got until seven point thirty, give us a
call right now? Are nine four one four one O
four to three, So wherever you are in Melbourne, could
you get right here. We're right in the middle of Richmond. Okay,
Goodwood Street. If you want to have a look on,

(20:56):
go on Google map to see how do not we
take you? You've got twenty two minutes to get here
to take Mary on. Otherwise Mary just plays yep and
she gets the money. So Mary, at the moment, you've
got the money and the somebody and she.

Speaker 2 (21:07):

Speaker 1 (27:26):
The Christian Connall Show podcast.

Speaker 3 (27:29):
Christian I was driving over the West Skate at half
six this morning. There was no sign of a broken
car or anyone who looked like Jason. I'm calling it now.
Don't worry, We're all We're all up to space j
go one in four point three Christian O'Connell's show. Let's
get into this week's Does that make me lazy? Tell

(28:02):
me a little taed off? I don't know, I just do.
I'm so lazy.

Speaker 1 (28:09):
I bought this John Lennon remastered album box sets.

Speaker 3 (28:13):
Couldn't be bothered. Just listed it on Spotify. They are
just kids that I couldn't be bothered with cutlery, so
I can just shit for so many meals in between
two sides of the bread and just go for it.

Speaker 11 (28:23):
When I was a young feller up in the pub days,
I got a local other few and then go straight
across to the pizza shop, order yourself a pizza and
get it delivered. And I jump in with a delivery going.

Speaker 3 (28:34):
All right, so what do you do? That is the
height of laziness nine four one four one o four
three That there you? Yes, this should should be called
the height of jump post.

Speaker 2 (28:44):
I've got a smoothie bottle that I bought online that
blends for you. So it's got a little it's battery operated.
I don't have to shake anymore. I can just simply
click a button.

Speaker 3 (28:54):
That is revolting not sound nice? That doesn't.

Speaker 2 (29:01):
Then my hands are free to do whatever.

Speaker 3 (29:02):
I because it had really been holding you back at
radio greatness was the endless, ceaseless stirring that shaker, wasn't it?
And now thank god technology has come along an AI
to actually stir your We need this in cocktail making. Hey,
I is coming for you, job cocktail makers. That this
will fix me a martini or a man at now.

Speaker 2 (29:24):
Twenty six dollars on Amazon. If you want one false.

Speaker 3 (29:27):
Person gravity, just tumbling it around in your hand a
couple of times. That is a gimmick, and that's this
year's fidget spinners.

Speaker 5 (29:36):
I'll defend your Jack.

Speaker 4 (29:37):
I reckon that is brilliant because normally the manual shakers
have that metal ball in it that always gets lost
in the bottom of the drawer.

Speaker 5 (29:45):
That you don't need a ball, it doesn't for there
you go.

Speaker 3 (29:49):
It's a consumer piece of crap.

Speaker 2 (29:53):
She's just waiting for the echo version to come.

Speaker 3 (29:54):
Out, and this week on perhaps consumer crap. Let's get
that made because we're barely fine. So all right, so
what do you do? That is the height of laziness, Tony.
This is unbelievable. Tony bought a second remote for the bedroom, Telly,
so who doesn't have to reach over to the other
side of the bed.

Speaker 2 (30:17):
He's a fair remote.

Speaker 1 (30:19):
Christian Connell's show.

Speaker 3 (30:21):
Podcast Christian Jack should try the many neutral bullets. What
the hell is that, Debbie?

Speaker 2 (30:29):
I guess another smoothie you can blend up on the go.

Speaker 4 (30:32):
Neutral bullets so brilliant. They jush up everything and it's
like a little mini me version.

Speaker 3 (30:41):
Again, we're never far away from some sort of radio advertorial.
Why you're not one of those shopping channels you'd be
a billionaire. Seriously, you would shift so much stuff. In fact,
I'm going to try and make that happen for you, Patsy.
I think that because those people that mainly commission you
could earn a fortune doing that. Let's do it again,
no one commitment to news. Get me out of here.

(31:03):
Selling fridge freeze as heavy discounted. These are crazy prices
that will not last forever.

Speaker 2 (31:08):
For easy installments, all right, So what do.

Speaker 3 (31:12):
You do with that? Is the height of laziness. Andrew
gets his pizza delivered to the car park where he's
waiting sometimes on his lunch break. Tracy got cough sir
at delivered at three and here through Uber Eats, even
though she's only one hundred meters away from the chemists. Angela,
come on him.

Speaker 6 (31:30):
Yeah, my family and.

Speaker 12 (31:32):
I we are that lazy.

Speaker 8 (31:33):
We have that a remote for each seat in.

Speaker 3 (31:37):
Our lound room so we don't have to move around
to grab the remote. See. I actually think that's genius behavior.
That's a great idea.

Speaker 2 (31:45):
So we had Tony with one on either side of
the bed. How many remotes do you have in the lounge?

Speaker 6 (31:49):
So we've got seven remote?

Speaker 3 (31:52):
Well, but it's like gunslingers. What if you go at
the same time and you're like you're changing channels. What
if you at the one end of the couch wants
to watch something someone else wants to stick something else on?

Speaker 12 (32:04):
Cause a lot of arguments, especially with the young one
who want to.

Speaker 8 (32:08):
Watch their cartoons while everyone else is trying to watch
Home and Away your neighbors.

Speaker 2 (32:15):
It's like a remote tag of water. You're trying to
go up to someone else trying.

Speaker 3 (32:18):
To get it down. Angela, that's genius. Thank you very much.
She called me. I have a good day, Steve. Good morning.
What do you do this morning, Steve? Ah, So, guys,
my laziness is really I live literally two minutes across
from the shopping thing, and I drive there every day
when I need to go, you drive there? Yeah, it's sure.

(32:38):
You've got to go probably around the block and up
little the car park and find a spot.

Speaker 11 (32:43):
Yeah. I always find the spot either way, Steve.

Speaker 3 (32:46):
Thank you very much.

Speaker 1 (32:48):
This is the Christian o'connells show podcast.

Speaker 3 (32:52):
Some big thank yous right now at the huge amount
you've raised for a really important, small, but so powerful
and sadly really needed charity. They're called Backpacks for vic
kids and you might have heard us talk about them before,
really important this time of year. Then for all the
children that are taken into care, they're trying to get
them and there are thousands of these poor kids. They're

(33:14):
trying to get them a Christmas present because otherwise they
actually won't get a Christmas present this year, and just
that thought breaks your heart, and especially when you hear
you're talking about thousands of kids. As we all know.
You know, Melbourne really hit hard obviously with all the lockdowns,
and even though we're over the lockdowns and the pandemic,
there's a kind of different wave to it where a
lot of families just haven't a lot of people haven't
been able to break even financially because obviously this year

(33:37):
we've been hit with the high interest rates and the
cost of living. So there's two really impacts that there's
impacts to people and how they cope with that, and
then there's also it means that not many people are
donating to small charities like this for very understandable reasons,
not judging a toy. I totally get it, which is
why when Sally from this charity and what they try
and do is they're trying to get something called a
Santa pack. This Santa pack costs just thirty five dollars

(33:59):
and it's good. It's a Christmas path then for one
of these children, and they they just run out of money.
She'd managed to get sort of fifteen hundred packs for
fifteen hundred children, but it will be this Christmas well
over around six thousand children that need these Christmas presents.
Otherwise they're not going to get one on Christmas Day.
So we asked you Thursday morning, could you donate anything?

(34:19):
And it is amazing the amount of money that you've
raised right now as we head towards eight o'clock six
days later a Wednesday morning, is humbling for us just
seeing what you've done, all your amazing messages if you'd
like to give them. This is the first time you've
heard about it. Every thirty five dollars that you donate
is an extra present for a kid this Christmas jack.
What is the number right now that they've donated.

Speaker 2 (34:42):
Yeah, and one remember one hundred percent of this donation
goes directly to buy those gifts. Two hundred and eighteen
three hundred and twenty dollars, which equals six two hundred
and thirty seven of the Santi packs.

Speaker 3 (34:54):
We had no money on Thursday morning. We now have
almost two hundred and twenty thousand dollars. And what that
really means, that's that just said, that's over six thousand
children who will be giving six thousand children, so many
we'll be getting a Christmas present, just a little gift
on Christmas Day this year. And you can still contribute
now because extra money that comes it means that it's
backpacks that they give to kids in the new year

(35:17):
as well, so back pats of it. Kids can start
next year not having to rely on donations as well,
So you can still donate. You go to the Christian
O'Connell's show dot com dot au. Thank you very much
the people who've done that. We have lots of thank
you to give, so when you go there you can
leave you a little message. Please do so we can
thank you. And also it's lovely to sing all the messages.

(35:39):
Oscar Gus and Zoe Eckermann, thank you for your donation.
We all donate to some of our savings so we
can make someone's Christmas special this year. Oscar Gus and
Zoe eckerman you've done that. Thank you.

Speaker 2 (35:51):
Thank you to Jennifer Lazari, who sadly lost her mum
this year, but she said this on behalf of my mum.
She loved to donate and help others through her life.
Even though she did not have much, she always cared
and wanted to show how much she cared.

Speaker 3 (36:02):
Jennifer, what a lovely message and I'm sorry that you
lost your mum this year, but what a lovely thing
to do on behalf of your mom. Carol Fatorus. Merry
Christmas to the beautiful kids who receives these packs. Big

Speaker 2 (36:40):
Thanks to Lynn Johnson on behalf of my yet to
be born great niece or nephew who's duet Christmas and
already has so much. Here's one pack for the children
of Melbourne.

Speaker 3 (36:49):
What a powerful nephew. You'd better do that from beyond
the womb. I guess you could do that, tap and go.
Now what will they think of next? Ash stand and
the crew logistics team at the Westgate Projects, it's proud
to support this amazing charity. We all hope this donation
rings smiles and spreads joy to so many people. It
will ash down the Crew Logistics team, Westgate Tunnel Project.

Speaker 2 (37:25):
He's donated a crazy seven hundred dollars. Thank you, Robert,
and I believe you. I spoke with two boys and
my nephew and niece and they decided they would like
to donate the money I'd be using to buy them
presents this year to help these kids.

Speaker 3 (37:36):
Thank you very much, sowerbuts habits at Ecology. My brother
and sister in law have been fostering for over forty
years and I see how this has changed so many
of the children that they have supported too they've adopted.
Keep up the great work and glad this small donation

Thank you very much all whatever any of you can give.

The Christian O'Connell Show podcast, and.

Speaker 3 (39:00):
So then we don't do hum Day Wednesday. We just
want to hear if you love your job, whatever it
is you do for a living, give us a call
and share your passion your joy. Every single week we're
amazed with the amazing stories and sharings that go on.
And the lovely thing is as we all get to
listen to this wherever you are right now listening to
the show, whether you're on the school running or stuck

(39:20):
in traffic, something that happens where it just opens up
your heart just by receiving other people's joy and how
they find joy in the most incredible situations whatever people
do for a living. Couple of weeks ago, we had
a lovely man on called John and he had set
up and run his own charity called disco Ability and
it's a daytime disco for disabled people and our memory's

(39:41):
call very vividly, even though we get a lot of
calls on this every single week, but it was a
couple of weeks ago and he told us about one
of the people that comes along who is blind and deaf,
and this is the amazing thing about music. He puts
his hands on the speakers and he can obviously feel
the vibrations and that's what he gets his joy from.
So that's why John gets his joint from running this charity.

(40:02):
And he's got a lovely email from one of you,
Sharon Maynel works for a Blossom Community Center, Christian, I
want to let you know a couple of weeks to
go on, I love my job. You had John on
from disco Ability. I reached out to John and we
are a disability support provider in the West of Melbourne
and we have a location that can be used for
discos and I thought was such a great idea. So
this Friday we're having an end of year party and

(40:23):
for the first time we're gonna have a DJ, and
it's gonna be John and his team and everyone is
so excited and my hoping that it's going to become
a fortnightly thing for everyone thanks to John and his
amazing team. I just wanted to let you know how
great we were to hear John and disco ability Sharon Maynel,
what a lovely thing you did. Get in touch with
them as well, and everyone who works at the Blossom
Community Center. That is lovely. So if you love your job,

(40:46):
give us a call.

Speaker 1 (40:47):

we'd love to hear about it. Nine four one four
one oh four three. Like Tracy here, coome on in. Tracy. Hi, guys,
Hey guys, we're good Tracy. So, Tracy, what do you do?

Speaker 8 (41:02):
I'm a third technology assistant at a high school.

Speaker 3 (41:06):
So you're a chef?

Speaker 8 (41:07):
No, No, I'm just an assistant to the teachers who
teach the students how to cook. I get stuff ready
for the teachers in the mornings and help do shopping
and then prep it all, get it ready for the kids,
and they come in and they do their cook and
we get to sorry, I get all emotional. We help
them with their cook and how to learn. You know,

(41:29):
they learn so so much from the teachers, and it's
just so beautiful to watch them when they come in
because some of them are quite hesitant to cook and
they're like, you know, I'm a bit nervous, I'm stared
at the fire, blah blah blah. And you get to
help them and you see them achieve, and at the
end of the day, they all go home so proud
of themselves. It's just sorry. I just really really love it.

(41:51):
Like I feel like this job came to me just
at the right time in my life as well. And
I've got a beautiful work wife, so I door we
work together every day, and I work with an incredible
team of ladies who just are mind blowing. They embrace
me as part of their own and I just love
coming here and doing this every single day. I'm never

(42:15):
like I don't want to go to work.

Speaker 3 (42:17):
This is so lovely to hear and then tell me this,
what is it? What does it actually mean to you?
What's the emotional about? What the tears? I'm dying to know.
It's a lovely So I feel like there needs to
be a documentary that we can all see what goes
on there. It's an amazing place.

Speaker 8 (42:31):
It just it is it's seeing the kids and working
with them one on one. I just mean, I love
kids anyway, but being around them and seeing them have
so much fun and learn and know that they can
do this and walk away from here going I can
actually do that, and coming back the next week and going,

(42:52):
I really enjoy doing that. Miss. You know, It's just
it's just mind blowing, it really is. I've had some
really crappy jobs my.

Speaker 3 (42:59):
Time, and what we did beforehand. You said that this came.
If you don't want me asking, you said that it
came at the right time in your life. Was that
I need a job that you didn't enjoy beforehand?

Speaker 8 (43:08):
Yeah, Look, it wasn't the greatest. I was delivering sanitary
beings to schools and possible and places, which is the
most pleasant job in the world. And when I was
out of work for about six months and then a
friend of mine called me and said, my sister's got
a position available. Do you want to have a go?
And I said, oh, I've never done anything like that.

(43:28):
And I've just learned so much since I came here.
I've learnt so much about people, about food, about skills
I didn't know I had. So it's just been. It's
just been beautiful. Sorry, I'm not emotional about that.

Speaker 3 (43:42):
It's a joint. This is what we do the future,
it's a joint to hear and actually, do you know
what if we're lucky in life, you know, because we
spend so much our time at work and not everyone
can have what you've got, But there's everything just so
magical about it when you hear about it. Trace So
just work, if we're lucky, can really actually bring us
alive and not be just something we do for the
other part of our life. And that's what you're living
true to that.

Speaker 8 (44:02):
Yeah, it really is like I always wish everyone could
be this happy when they come to work.

Speaker 3 (44:08):
I love hearing about this. And I saw the team
there that it took you in example, because it sounds
like it's a very tight knit unit, all of you,
and it must be quite hard when you go into
that and you're not one of them, but they obviously
took you on and integrate you quickly.

Speaker 8 (44:21):
Thank you, And I just feel like they really took
me into the into their fold and I'm with family.
It's just it's amazing.

Speaker 5 (44:28):
It really is awesome.

Speaker 2 (44:30):
There's something satisfying listening to somebody who's in the right
job at the right time.

Speaker 3 (44:35):
And where is this, Tracy, where do you work?

Speaker 8 (44:37):
I'm at a high school in Berrick. I'm not sure
if I'm supposed to say that, but I'll say it anyways,
It's Ken Bryer Second Cottage.

Speaker 3 (44:43):
And give your team a shout out. Who's in the
team with you?

Speaker 8 (44:47):

teachers are Shelley Minori, Lisa Leanne and Bob has just

Speaker 3 (45:20):
Let's go to Anna here. Good morning Anna, Good morning guys. Anna.
What do you do then?

Speaker 8 (45:26):
I'm a drug and alcohol counselor Wow.

Speaker 3 (45:28):
Important job, special job. How long you've been doing that?

Speaker 1 (45:31):
About a year and a half.

Speaker 3 (45:33):
And how is it so far have you found it?

Speaker 6 (45:36):
I love it.

Speaker 8 (45:36):
I love to see people who are really really unwell
get well when they get into rehab through us.

Speaker 3 (45:42):
Love it and what were doing beforehand? What was the change?
What brought that about?

Speaker 8 (45:46):
So I am in recovery myself. My life fell off
the rails.

Speaker 6 (45:52):
Due to being an alcoholic and.

Speaker 8 (45:53):
Not realizing that I had a problem, and I was
on my knees and asked for help. And I'm nearly
six years sobers.

Speaker 3 (46:00):
That's amazing, Thank you. You must be very proud.

Speaker 8 (46:03):
But yes, I'm very proud.

Speaker 3 (46:05):
Yeah, I've got a couple of friends and recovery and
it's one day at a time, and one of them
just celebrated twelve years and I'm so proud of them.

Speaker 8 (46:11):
That's amazing and a well done, fantastic thank you.

Speaker 3 (46:14):
So you're using what happened to you? Is that amazing?
You go through all of that and I can't imagine
what that must have been a light for you. And
then you're now using it as a gift to help
other people because actually people in front of you, it's
nothing worse. Sometimes when someone doesn't know actually what it's
like to have your experience, and it's all theory and
when they tell you what to do, but actually you've
lived it, you're further down the path actually holding up

(46:35):
light showing that they can do this.

Speaker 1 (46:37):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (46:38):
Yeah, I think that that's really important to have that
lived experience and you know, just they can see what's
possible if they put the work in.

Speaker 3 (46:45):
Ah. It's amazing and a congratulations and well done and
your recovery and what you're doing with it as well.
Thank you, lovely talking to you. This is the.
