free iHeart app Got anything good?

Speaker 2 (00:19):
Hey, this is the Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 1 (00:27):
Thank you joining the show. Were you just sniffing your
armpits then to see if you've got bo No?

Speaker 3 (00:31):
I have very wet lips and I was just about
to speak, so I was worried that if I.

Speaker 1 (00:36):
Specially just because you're standing and speaking where chat posted.
You don't need to be that character. You don't need
to be the odd ball. We said goodbye to him Friday.

Speaker 3 (00:46):
I just wanted to make sure my lips were dry enough.

Speaker 1 (00:48):
Right, okay?

Speaker 3 (00:49):
The show?

Speaker 1 (00:49):
Yes? What makes you if you have moist lips and radio?
They don't make oh right gross? In the mind, the
best time to do it is when the Mites go
live and red. I mean, we've been in the studio
for twenty minutes. You've not been doing your chomping test
at all. You do it when we go live.

Speaker 4 (01:04):
I don't know why the because you have breakfast, that's
why you're better off not to eat.

Speaker 5 (01:09):
You never eat just before you come.

Speaker 1 (01:10):
On here, Pats, So do you have a breakfast in
the morning, I have.

Speaker 3 (01:14):
A protein shake, Yes, I did have, yes, And maybe
that's causing the wet mouth reaction.

Speaker 1 (01:19):
Just watch that today, Okay, I'll watch it. We could
really ruin the show if certainly we're in the middle
of one of the greatest breaks ever on radio and
then you trash it with a wet mouth. Yes, Patsy,
how is your day yesterday?

Speaker 5 (01:31):
Well, I'm not very happy today.

Speaker 4 (01:32):
I've got to say I do love a fresh bean
from the supermarket.

Speaker 5 (01:36):
I never buy frizer. Well just one, no, no, I.

Speaker 1 (01:38):
Get hold anyone say they like a bean, because where
are the beans? Where are the beans?

Speaker 5 (01:44):
Well, that's the point. Where are the beans?

Speaker 1 (01:47):
Beans? You can run a garden beans, green.

Speaker 4 (01:49):
Beans or beans pedestrian, normal green fresh beans that you
get in the packet.

Speaker 5 (01:55):
I can't get them out my.

Speaker 1 (01:57):
Way for sure. The dullest vegetables so boring. You can
add garlic or lemon with them, they're still just so boring.

Speaker 3 (02:06):
I quite like eating beans, but I hate preparing beans
because you've got to chop all the time.

Speaker 1 (02:12):
Head off work.

Speaker 5 (02:13):
The payoff was so worth it in the end.

Speaker 1 (02:16):
Superfoods or anything.

Speaker 5 (02:18):
You're not cooking them right.

Speaker 4 (02:19):
If you don't like a bean, You've still got to
have them still a little bit sort of you know, crunchy.

Speaker 1 (02:24):
You don't want them too ildent, too floppy either.

Speaker 5 (02:26):
No, not like mum used to boil the heck out
of him the water was going.

Speaker 1 (02:31):
Did the same mums used to boil the heck? I
remember my mum used to boil my dad's hankies.

Speaker 5 (02:39):
To sterilize that.

Speaker 1 (02:41):
You know, it's just like it's only when time you
look back and go, wait, what that was disgusting?

Speaker 3 (02:47):
Hanks are such a dad.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
Thing snotchy like the snopping. Then later on that night
made in that.

Speaker 5 (02:56):
Still use a handkerchief.

Speaker 3 (02:57):
My dad used to at school. He was always like,
take a hanky, take a hand, and I hated it
because it was so lame to have a hanky like
full of your snots.

Speaker 1 (03:06):
I do have inkerchiefs. I have two in my back
and carry them around because I think a gentlemine should
just in case I ever see a damage and distress
and I can hu grant it and go please take this.

Speaker 3 (03:18):
Tell me wow, as English gentleman, I know that's me.

Speaker 1 (03:22):
I ride the public transport is hoping to find that
damnseil every day after the show at nine a m.
So perhaps where are the beans?

Speaker 5 (03:28):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (03:28):
That's what I'm asking you. Where are the beans? I
need my beans fixed?

Speaker 1 (03:32):
Did you ask anyone? But you did?

Speaker 5 (03:33):

Speaker 4 (03:35):
He was there, he was unpacking the Brussels sprouts at
the time.

Speaker 1 (03:38):
Yeah. But what age is that person? I bet that
could child.

Speaker 5 (03:41):
He'd be young.

Speaker 4 (03:41):
No, i'd be young, twenties, early twenties. But this has
been going on for a few weeks, and I thought, no,
I need to say something.

Speaker 1 (03:48):
Enough enough, There's only so much I can take.

Speaker 5 (03:51):
Is it a bean shortage? And he said, I think
there is a supply issue.

Speaker 1 (03:54):
Yes, And oh they say that about it is that
I haven't find those eggs. This country is besieged. Wh
I supplied shortages? And yet these supermarkets make so much money.
I know, what are the supply promises, the eggs, the beans?

Speaker 3 (04:10):
Do we still not have our eggs section of the supermarket.

Speaker 1 (04:14):
It's COVID days.

Speaker 3 (04:15):
See.

Speaker 5 (04:15):
I can get eggs at my side.

Other a loans they're like the wonder around nature and
they try and catch a fish. Short they make a
canoe and they go out on a nice lake. What
are they just like? They will?

Speaker 3 (07:08):
They're they're honestly like they just bunker down. They're trying
to survive that it's so much more brutal, So they
don't do as.

Speaker 1 (07:14):
Much as the other because it's so cold.

Speaker 3 (07:16):
One the last guy saw a taken out because he
just lost consciousness. It's so much hardcore than when you
want alone?

Speaker 1 (07:23):
Is a great runty show. But when it's in those
real cold regions, don't you start to get cold? What
it is some kind of semantic sematic mirroring, but I
started to get really cold just watching people in the cold.

I am thirty three today and I couldn't go past
for that whole decade. The Spice Girls were iconic, absolutely
iconic for me. Me and my cousins. We used to
put dance concerts on for our family and we'd make
them pay twenty cents to come in.

Oh my god, that's so great. Do you remember? Those things?
Were all we used to do? Stuff like that.

Speaker 7 (13:32):
Oh my god, it was the best. And we would
spend all day preparing and like rehearsing, and the biggest
song for us during that time was Stop by the
Spice Girls. It had its own dance, So I made
the rehearsal very is there. But the parents loved it.
And yeah, we would go and buy candy after with
all the money that we would make off our parents.

I not my forthcoming daughter. Shot news, shot news shot news.

(17:28):
My wife who's fifty five. I don't think she has
on her vision board pushing out another kid at fifty five.
Now that will be about who had that on their
BINGO card? This year as she starts breaking out the
sweat then like she's not pregnant. She I feel like
I need to bring my wife going. Wait, I didn't
imagine this, and we had a chat about this. Any hohosy,

(17:49):
what are I saying? Chief planning officer of my daughter's fothcoming,
that's what's forthcoming, not a kid. Her twenty first in July.
My wife is not around during the day of our
daughter's twenty first. She's on a training course, so we're
having dinner in evening, but during the day, she's going
to have an awesome day. It's her twenty first. She
sat me down yesterday she said, hey, listen, couple of
friends of mine hurts just show that you're very excited.

(18:12):
You've got a couple of pans. We had a planning
meeting yesterday where I was given some guidelines slash rules.
So the idea is, and she's really up for this,
she's already spoke to a couple of mates, is that
I'm going to hire one of these minibuses that do
wine tours. You're going to go and do like three wineries.
You know, it'd be really nice during the day, and
it's it's interesting when you go to wineries, you try

(18:32):
the different wines, you compare them and grade them and
stuff like that. It's a good fun thing to do.
So the first thing, she said, when we go to wineries,
you're not to spend too much time chatting to people there. Yes,
I love to yack it up, stick a few wines
in me. I mean you, best mate, she said, Hi,
am front and center of attention. You're not some rando
at the bar who you're s being phone numbers in

(18:54):
because you're lonely in the middle aged, lone next with
the best friend one of these wineries. But okay, no
chatting to too many people, I said, I can't be rude,
I can't arrive and it's goes no time for you, maarman,
all the wine flights and zip it. No surprises, I said, yes,

(19:16):
but I really mean no, I'm not signing up on that.
There will be surprises. Also, nothing tacky, she got win yesterday,
the personalized good. I'm still looking for that. I'm going
to do it so I don't think that's tacky. I
think it's classy.

Speaker 3 (19:31):
Nothing tacky. Now, yeah, that is you do lean towards I.

Speaker 1 (19:36):
Know, I don't know I'm a discerning, stylish gentleman abound town.

Mercher is off the table.

Speaker 1 (19:42):

Speaker 3 (19:51):
Yeah, okay, yeah, no, no, no, this.

Speaker 1 (19:53):
Will be very classy. Not too many emotions. She was
more or less well, she was staring at me like
died it down. Okay, we don't want staring off at
a distance. At the end of the oh so quickly
in fire on the Minibus, that is song number one
of the players, I start to make the emotions. Memories,

(20:14):
bring memories, not too many emotions. And I think linked
to that she said no speech.

Speaker 3 (20:19):
Okay, so no talking, fair enough.

Speaker 1 (20:22):
You have to do his speech like getting the minimus
and go off.

Speaker 4 (20:25):
We indeed, Ruby might feel that she wants to do
a speech. But you don't need to speak every day
on the radio.

Speaker 1 (20:31):
But that's a radio show. It's a different context.

Speaker 3 (20:33):
Twenty first. Sorry, you don't get a choice. We do
speeches at you. That's what happens at a twenty first.
So if you want to speak, spe not just that
the time, the effort yes, money getting that through these
twenty one years.

Speaker 1 (20:45):
If I want to say something, I will say something.

Speaker 3 (20:48):
It's a right of passage. You have to have an
embarrassing speech.

Speaker 1 (20:50):
That it won't be embarrassing. I'm a pro great speech,
good speech, great speech like that is Churchill here right now,
fight on the beach's ruby. Now. The one thing I
do need some help with. Yesterday I start to google
like wine bus tours. There's like, obviously hung absolve them.
They've all got great reviews. You don't know who's any good.

had quite a bad experience. Once we'd hired somebody. They
rang and said, we can't do the tour today. But

in high school I had a well we knew someone
in our year level Leonard Fish. And as I said,
it is twenty years ago. I don't know why I
remember this, but when you did the high school photo,
like the year photo and everything.

Speaker 1 (27:05):
Like that, oh yeah years ago.

Speaker 8 (27:06):
Yeah, yeah yeah. So when you did that, you had
to stay in where you were sitting or standing, and
then the teacher would pass like like a bit of
paper and you had to write you know, your name
and everything like that. So when the laminated photo came,
it had you know your name, where you were sitting
and everything like that. And I don't know why he

(27:26):
thought it was just funny, but it sticks in my
brain like nothing else. But he wrote, Lenny Trout.

Speaker 1 (27:33):
Quite a frank. Stuff is a gift to keep? Is
it gift to the future? Really?

Speaker 8 (27:39):
But the thing the thing I love about the thing
I loved about it was like the teachers would have
had to look over it, and no one looked over it,
and it was just there laminated. So yeah, we had
a we had a Lenny Fish, Leonard Fish, and a
Lenny Trout.

in our wardrobe and had to make my partner will
build because it's really anything with draws is hot.

Speaker 1 (31:11):

children shouldn't be around something that's going to chop their
toe off.

Speaker 1 (34:12):
Yeah, I have a good point. I get when to
say like that. It's a data felt in shame that
I didn't say that earlier. Actually, you're right. It's the
golden role you have when they hands are your kid

something they could chop the toe off. All right, my man,

business cards to scribble our contact details. He turns over
my card, looks at me and says, Jesus are having
a bad day, and I go, yeah, I know. He goes, no, No,

(37:17):

Speaker 1 (37:20):
I can never get tired of hearing that. It's one
of my favorite ones of the year. It is time
for what are the Odds?

Speaker 6 (37:31):
What are the odds.

Speaker 3 (37:33):
You gotta be justhing.

Speaker 6 (37:35):
Me like, were you with Cheryl who married a hun?

Speaker 1 (37:41):
Who works with Cheryl who married a hunt?

Speaker 6 (37:47):
As well?

Speaker 1 (37:48):
Let's get straight into it. Good morning, Christian. What are
the odds? What are they? Ollie? I met a King
Charles Cavalier breeder prior to purchasing a pump from her.
The breeder said, what is your name? I said, Ollie?
She said, I have a son called Donnie. He doesn't
end there. My friend, Wow. I asked, what is the

(38:09):
name of the expecting mother of the dog. She said Grace.
I said, that is my mother's name. It doesn't stop there.
The reader then said to me, what are you going
to call this pup? They start calling the pumps by
a name so they get used to it. I said,
my grandmother's name was Ellen. However everyone called her Nellie,
so we're going to call our pup Nellie. I've been

(38:30):
looked at me in disbelief. She said, that's what my
grandmother's name is. Oh two three.

Speaker 5 (38:35):
Wow, what are the odds?

Speaker 1 (38:37):
What are the odds? Amazing? We never had one involving
a King Charles cater Finally, I drive one hundred kilometers
to see my ninety eight year old mother once a week.
Good on, I'm not allowed to come unless I have
Nellie with me. And thank you all for at touching
a photo. Oh my god, Nellie and your mom. Now
it's Sandy. You didn't put your mom's name on there.

(38:59):
This is a mysterious old woman with a beautiful looking King.
Charles Cavalier is Nelly, I hope. So we're some random
boat he's got off the Internet that he shares no
business owning. But I love that. Doesn't she look so
happy with that?

Speaker 3 (39:14):
Joy?

Speaker 1 (39:14):
I tell you what. He looks as grumpy as anything
is old, Nenny. King, Charles Cavaliers are arrogant aloof little.

Speaker 3 (39:20):
MutS English dogs.

Speaker 1 (39:23):
You here's another one, Norell. What are the odds? Back
in the nineties, before kids had mobile phones, a group
of us used to hang out the local shopping center
food court after school. I used to do this as well.
There was a payphone nearby. One day, it just starts
ringing randomly. I pick it up and jokingly say, hello,
you've reached the white Horse Plaza food court. Who are you?
After a woman replied I'm looking for Bobby, I said,

(39:45):
you've called a public payphone. Let me check. He called
out for Bobby, no response, told her Bobby's not there.
She then asked, do you know when he's coming home?
Something about her voice for a minute, so I said,
is that you Val?

Speaker 10 (39:58):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (40:01):
Voo was my manager at the supermarket I worked after school.
She had meant called Bobby to cover a shift and
I was on the list. Not realizing she called a
public phone phone, she just assumed she died my home
number instead. I agreed to cover the shift on he
decks some money When aren't able to explain what really happened,
Val couldn't believe it and said I should buy a

(40:21):
lot of ticket. What are the odds? I love that?
Is that you Van?

Speaker 4 (40:27):
Remember in the days of the payphone, you could wring
other phone boxes and people could answer, like in country towns. Yeah,
and everyone knew everyone you knew there. It was just weird,
just another time.

Speaker 1 (40:38):
Yeah, but that network worked, didn't Yeah?

Speaker 5 (40:41):
Totally?

Speaker 1 (40:42):
Yeah. I remember a friend of mine, his dad was
a salesman and he worked out of a payphone. What
do you mean, well, he had that phone. Yes, so
sometimes you'd use it to call a friend and can
you just wrap it up? I'm bout to close the dell.
Then get on there and go, Derek, are we doing
this or not? He worked out of public Seriously, that

(41:02):
was his office number. Sometimes people would pick up the
phone and because like Phats said, it was a quite
a small town there would we take down details of
this customer order. All right, give us a call. What
are the odds? Your story is now? Thirteen fifty five, twenty.

Speaker 2 (41:17):
Two, Christian O'Connell show, go on podcast.

Speaker 1 (41:21):
Christian. You can still call public payphones. My partner and
I do it for fun at the weekend. Is that
like I don't know? Is that come going to cosplay?
It's one of them at the payphone and they hook

Speaker 1 (43:44):
Okay?

Speaker 9 (43:45):
So years ago, I'm old in the nineties, I opened
my very first bank account, got my card. Do they
hand you your card and your pin number? Fust forward
a few years I opened another account at another bank,
handed me in my card and what are the odds?
The exact same pin number.

Speaker 1 (44:03):
And they created at random, aren't they?

Speaker 3 (44:09):
Odds are one in ten thousand?

Speaker 5 (44:11):
How do you know that?

Speaker 3 (44:12):
Maybe that's not right? That did you pin one in?
Is up to Yes, that's right, it's ninety nine commodations,

How are we? I'm good, Josh. Are you having a
good week so far? Welcome to the showmate, Thank you?

Speaker 14 (44:47):
What are the odds of this? A couple of years ago,
I had a new guy start at work and I'm
training him, we're training away what not, and he goes
hoy to do you ever go out to this bane.
It was one of the bar about half an hour away.
Forty minutes I.

Speaker 8 (45:05):
Go, yeah, yeah, I did.

Speaker 1 (45:08):
What are the od to this?

Speaker 14 (45:09):

the group of our party just for kick ons, And yeah,
I wouldn't know this guy from a bar of soap.

Speaker 8 (45:22):
Gets better? Sorry on my.

Speaker 14 (45:24):
Video memories on Snapchat and I'll find a video of
this guy.

Speaker 1 (45:28):
You're kidding.

Speaker 14 (45:31):
What are the odds of that?

Speaker 3 (45:35):
Just the guys you invite back to kick ons after
your you know, had a big night, they're the people
you never want to see again because.

Speaker 1 (45:41):
The moment everyone in the world is your friends come
bloody that guy and whatnot.

Speaker 14 (45:51):
But you know we were drunk at the time.

Speaker 1 (45:53):

Speaker 14 (46:03):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (46:05):
What the Christian o'connal show.

Speaker 1 (46:08):
But I think Friday we should have some payphone fun.
I'm getting all these texts. It was a throwaway thing
early about payphones. You can still call payphones. My son
does it for pranks.

Speaker 5 (46:23):
Where are there even payphones these days.

Speaker 1 (46:26):
You still seeing them around. There's a couple near me. Yes, yes,
Sometimes he calls up random payphones. This kid's eleven, and
he asks him where the beach is and it's somewhere
at the beach.

Speaker 3 (46:39):
It's good to see that.

Speaker 1 (46:43):
And also ask him where does he drop the cash
to freak people? Or how much for the woman.

Speaker 3 (46:49):
Eleven who's teaching him these things.

Speaker 1 (46:52):
Future Australian Breakfast They found the next Carl and Jackie
O host tell him to stop. Sometimes when we see
a small kid playing with a payphone, we will look
up the phone number and call it just to freak
them out. We have to do this Friday. I don't
know what we do, but we're doing stuff. This is
how we crank up the fun on a Friday, Fun

(47:14):
Time paypone project who had a song payphone PAF you've
missed out? His singer partner Wiz Kalifa shout out with
Kelly Sad Did I know that? Christian? What are the odds? Yes?
Back to what are the odds? What about this one?

(47:34):
Then it's just come in. The woman who filled my
position at work had the same name as me, Kylie.
That's not too weird. But he also had only one child, boy,
the same as me, and we both called them Max. Oh,
so you put all this together. The woman who did
the same job as me had the same name, same
only child, and we both called them the same Max. Wow, Lisa,

(47:59):
We've got time for one last story. Lisa. It's you.
Welcome to the show.

Speaker 2 (48:03):
Good morning.

Speaker 15 (48:03):
This is a this is an odds and a chance one.
I think more than happy to share this. One twenty fourteen,
I went to the AFL Grand Final. I'm a mad
Hawthorn supporter, and Hawthorne played Collingwood, so I got I
was fortunate, my daughter and I got seats on the
wing on the fence. Amazing day we won. Two years later,

(48:24):
I was working in Darwin. I walked into the kitchen,
had my Horthorn mugs. A work colleague who had never
met before come up and said, oh, you bragg for Hawthorne. Yep,
so do I. Then we started sort of bragging a bit.
I went to the fourteen Grand Final, fifteen Grand Final.
He's going, so did I. So did I. He said,
come and have a look at photos. We shared where
we sat, He took me over, showed his photos. We

(48:47):
were both in the same photo after the game when
one of the Hawthorn players took a selfie of the
three of us on the wind on the boundary.

Speaker 1 (48:58):
This is incredible.

Speaker 15 (49:00):
You're reading me no true story. And we're now friends
on Facebook and every year we share that story too.
No one else knows it.

Speaker 3 (49:10):
Yeah. Have you kept in touch?

Speaker 10 (49:12):
Yeah, yeah, we keep in touch.

Speaker 15 (49:14):
He now works back in Perth and I'm in Melbourne.
We just share the story on Facebook and we just
had a laugh. We just we cannot believe it because
we never spoke to each other before that.

Speaker 1 (49:25):
That is a crazy story. Every week we get these
amazing stories where you just it stops everything and you're
putting yourself there. We've all got those photos on our
phone where there's random people there, but you never ever
reunited with those people that you don't even know ever again.

Speaker 2 (49:40):
No.

Speaker 15 (49:40):
And the funny thing was like I was winging because
I remember there was this after the game. There was
this Sydney supporter. We got crushed on the on the
fans because everyone was trying to get down, and he
jumped over the top of us and I was like,
oh yeah, I got crushed on the fence. But this
crazy you know, Sydney support after them, He goes, so
did I And that's how we went in fact and went, yeah, yeah,

(50:07):
but that's okay. They're not going I'm so good this year,
So I'm pretty happy.

Speaker 1 (50:11):

week on the show. I don't know if you've heard
it before, but when we get a really great story,
we give them one thousand dollars and make you our
