I understand you had to do home and contents insurance,
Yes as well.

Speaker 1 (00:44):
I reason I had to go through this. It's so complicated.

Speaker 5 (00:47):
You feel like I feel like you know, when you're
at school and you haven't studied for an exam.

Speaker 2 (00:51):
Yeah, so I think we all just missed the year
or the term they did adulting.

Speaker 1 (00:56):
Yes.

Speaker 2 (00:56):
I was on the final last week and this woman
made me feel like I just didn't know. She was
like and one the points she was like, you got
any rare art? I mean, how many people? Why have
that question in? How many of us are going we
make sure you really upweight that the van goes I'm
got rare are? They need to have that question in

(01:18):
for every call rare are art collect I've got some
dogs playing poker?

Speaker 1 (01:24):
Is that rare? It is to me? I love that.
That's one of the kind. Yes it is.

Speaker 2 (01:27):
That calendar gives me a chuckle every month. So what
did you like valuation? Because there's a minimum, she asked me.

Speaker 7 (01:33):
She goes, how much would it cost to rebuild your home?

Speaker 1 (01:37):
I don't know what what's happened?

Speaker 5 (01:39):
I know if it's burnt down like I was like,
I wouldn't have the foggiest And she goes, okay, well
what's the like that's for the home part, And then
we moved on to the content.

Speaker 1 (01:49):
Yes, that's where it gets already complicated.

Speaker 5 (01:51):
Yeah, how much all your belongings were? I was like, well,
most important thing is like TV, which is like I
know one and a half k so five kum five.

Speaker 1 (02:04):
That's not like I don't own that much?

Speaker 7 (02:06):
Good?

Speaker 1 (02:07):
What about the fridge, the oven.

Speaker 5 (02:09):
Et old? They're all from Facebook marketplace? Like, nothing's really expensive.
It's a cost to replace the man.

Speaker 7 (02:16):
Yeah, she goes, well it starts at twenty k.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
Yeah that's the minimum.

Speaker 5 (02:20):
Because I've never had anyone safe five the lowest anyone
like I don't know, I honestly think that's all.

Speaker 1 (02:27):
It's just going to put you on hold.

Speaker 2 (02:28):
Will we have a wig round in the office for
the poorest person in Melbourne? Oh, when you work for
rather than my one breakfast show, you must work for
arm talk about this place by the way. Oh my god,
yesterday as I was leaving, I'm sure Josh on reception right,
and he must have been surrounded by it. And if
you saw it, pants, I did thirty boxes right, and
he was like taping them up.

Speaker 1 (02:48):
I said, what are we are you running like a
mail order business? What is this?

Speaker 2 (02:53):
And he goes, Oh my god, they didn't want anyone
seeing anything. But all the old, really old computers here
are being got rid of. I said, so where are
all these going? He goes, They're going to banner At.
I mean what you mean, like a food dropping balat
just thrown into the streets for the people at Ballarat
to have twenty year old dells.

Speaker 1 (03:14):
He goes, No, the radio station there.

Speaker 2 (03:16):
Oh, I didn't know we had an outfit out there
in Ballarat that are now getting twenty year old. Oh,
the first version of Microsoft ninety five.

Speaker 4 (03:25):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
Alice Cullen, you were doing a very good job this
week in the complicated world of the AFL trade.

Speaker 1 (03:34):
It's like advanced maths, isn't it. It really is.

Speaker 2 (03:38):
It's just shuffling around players who are basically the ongoing
story is people who are like the Cherney Kerno stuff.
So's he prepared to take what an apprenticeship ought to
be an unpaid intern?

Speaker 4 (03:51):
Ah?

Speaker 2 (03:51):
Yeah, the Swans Rather than play at Carlton, Yes, rather
than just one more year at.

Speaker 1 (03:58):
We'll keep for free? Well bad snags for free? What
an amazing story? That is a million dollars?

Speaker 2 (04:04):
It doesn't want to earn it if he's still got
to play.

Speaker 1 (04:09):
The ald story. He wants to get out of the
Melbourne bubble.

Speaker 2 (04:12):
Yes, that's just that one, isn't He same with Clayton
a loive as well. So around gws wrong choice of words.
They were Clayton and my favorite phrase is where they go?
The players have landed in Adelaide or wherever it is, Frio,
and I'm looking around the facilities, like you know what.
I look at the showers and I can't stand what
they've done with that canteen.

Speaker 1 (04:32):
I'm sorry, I'm not going to be coming. It's cracked
in the wall here. Yea that needs to be fixed.

Speaker 2 (04:39):
Looking around the facilities, some of them, I don't understand
the maths.

Speaker 8 (04:42):
Right.

Speaker 2 (04:43):
There was warning yesterday Will Brody got traded to port
Adelaide from Frio for actually pause the TV and wrote
this down. I couldn't understand this for around six pick
one oh three?

Speaker 1 (04:58):
Yes, what? Yeah? I didn't even know it went up
that hot.

Speaker 7 (05:02):
It's pretty insulting.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
Yes, I like, I don't even know who to do
it is.

Speaker 2 (05:07):
But people were like, he got he's got ring his
mum and dad, I'm after port Adelaide.

Speaker 1 (05:12):
What do they get around six pick one oh three?
That is low? I didn't even know it went up
like that. How did they were? They in nego shape?

Speaker 2 (05:19):
Will I?

Speaker 1 (05:20):
Will you want?

Speaker 2 (05:22):
We want one oh one? No? No, one oh three?
All right, yeah, well.

Speaker 1 (05:27):
Get in here.

Speaker 7 (05:29):
What did they take me for? Pick thirty?

Speaker 2 (05:33):
I didn't know when that high? But it's the round
six pick one oh three.

Speaker 9 (05:38):
Yeah, and one of the highest picks as well, Like
not many get traded from like one hundred plus.

Speaker 1 (05:44):
You've never heard of it going over one hundred. That's
why it caught my eye.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
Yes, that's what it seems a pointless trade and also
it's like it must be so complicated for the people
who were like the list managers or all the us. Yeah,
and like minute by minute it must be because it's
so complicated. Who's coming in, who keeps a note on
a file on a computer? These future picks? Because these
people must jobs? Do they tell the new person, don't

(06:11):
forget about that? Pick one oh three, that's ours?

Speaker 1 (06:14):
Wait for it? Rounds? Was it four? Was it? Fourn'?
Remember now? Pick thirty seven, eight forty six?

Speaker 2 (06:21):
So does obviously the draw system exists in the NRL,
does it get this complicated?

Speaker 9 (06:25):
No way, They don't really have a draft system in
the NRL. What really, Yeah, you just sort of they
get up and comers, so you choose kids from eighteen's
reserve grade. Yeah, there's there's nothing like this in the NRAL.
The NURL are looking at it, though, because look at the.

Speaker 2 (06:40):
General that the NRL looks at the AFL and go,
we want some of that.

Speaker 1 (06:44):
But they should they look at the media it generates.
Let's attention on it.

Speaker 2 (06:48):
And notice that it has its own radio station. Oh
my god, have you ever heard trade radio? Continental taps?

Speaker 1 (06:54):
Those poor buggers, don't they have to feel like so much.

Speaker 2 (06:58):
What's the what's the Brad Pitt and Jonah Hill movie Moneyball?

Speaker 1 (07:02):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (07:02):
Yes, yes, like that, isn't it with all the advanced maths.
It's so complicated.

Speaker 5 (07:07):
They're like hamsters on a wheel because they can't get
off all They lout to talk about his.

Speaker 7 (07:10):
Trade radio and they've got like weeks and weeks of radio.

Speaker 1 (07:13):
Sometimes.

Speaker 2 (07:14):
I love watching the little video clips. They look like
hostages there that are not. Trump's going to fly into
Melbourne once he's solved to Israel and try and get
the presenters on Trade Radio.

Speaker 4 (07:26):
Free the Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
It's from Mark in Bathurst to we talk about yesterday.
Hello Mark, The NRAL Christian tried doing a drafta plays
during the nineties, won the players, the late Terry Hill
turn them to court for restriction of trade and one,
oh what one dude, Terry Hills taken well obviously he
took on the entire NRL though, and wait for e

(07:50):
one wow, what a legends. Christian assist on the show
yesterday about Lilian.

Speaker 1 (07:56):
Now.

Speaker 2 (07:57):
Lillian is one of our listeners Target Demo, who is
one hundred, one of our younger listeners. Actually she's the
sort of twenty somethings, well nineteen twenty something listeners that
were trying to attract more over to the station.

Speaker 1 (08:10):
Lillian is one hundred tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (08:11):
This is a big moment and she listens to the show,
and so granddaughter is bringing her in on the show tomorrow,
and we're looking for ideas. We need to get the
gift today. What do you get someone who's turning one hundred,
They've had ninety nine birthdays.

Speaker 1 (08:25):
You think about so many gifts, so many gifts.

Speaker 2 (08:28):
No more newspapers from the era was born, which always
think is a pointless gift because you didn't know, No,
you're a's not like it's hey, you remember this. I
had no idea that was happening. Five when she was born,
A depression was on.

Speaker 1 (08:41):
It's not going to be a fun na. Mick Morehouse
talking about all the comings and.

Speaker 2 (08:46):
Going to of AFL Christian Listens show. Yes, about Lillian
turning one hundred tomorrow. What gift together now? You said
about Caitlin said about getting her listen Kayton said a
lot yesterday a lot of reactions to the podcast when
producer Kaitlin actually said on air that Lillian becoming one
hundred tomorrow means that she would join an exclusive club

(09:07):
of a two nine people in the world who are
one hundred and above. And obviously there was much surprise
that she would think such a number. Turns out there's
over nine hundred thousand, six and a half thousand just
in Australia.

Speaker 1 (09:23):
She says it.

Speaker 7 (09:23):
It's such confidence that at first you believe her.

Speaker 2 (09:25):
You go, oh nine, and when the rest of the
team like produce a Tina bus and I went, no,
I don't think that's true. It to all us about
six thousand. I went to a song and you said,
Kate just looked at me and goes shit. I went no, no, no,
you can't say that about facts. If she was one
of eight or nine in the world, we'd have the
world's media just setting on us.

Speaker 1 (09:46):
Tomorrow. CNN would be coming and.

Speaker 7 (09:51):
She's the designated number cruncher on the.

Speaker 1 (09:53):
Crunching those numbers crunching.

Speaker 2 (09:55):
Anyway, she did have a nice day about getting her
one hundred dollars bottle of wine Christians. She can buy
that for herself. I think the suggestion of high tea
at the lang which is a good point.

Speaker 1 (10:05):
Hi t the Langue is incredible we have sorted this out.

Speaker 2 (10:08):
She's gonna I have tea at the Langeman and you
know Pansy Andre is going to look after as well.

Speaker 10 (10:13):
She will feel like a queen for a day as
she should be.

Speaker 2 (10:16):
Yeah, now talking about gifts, I found Sunday the only
thing that I would love for Christmas this year. Oh yeah, yeah,
I've made a note of my phone. It's a Lego
Seinfeld set.

Speaker 1 (10:27):
It's Jerry's apartment that is actually poor with all the characters.

Speaker 2 (10:32):
Okay, and Uncle Leo as well, right, one three hundred
and twenty six pieces. So it's something that maybe my
daughters could help me build over the Christmas period.

Speaker 1 (10:43):
Would they do that? No? Cool? No?

Speaker 2 (10:46):
But in my mind, you know, you have that version
of the family I wish I had. It's like the
Judd Apatow movie version, you know, where there's some mountain
goat song comes underneath it with a ukulele.

Speaker 5 (10:58):
Now you last time I remember you trying to do
a puzzle. How did you end up finishing that?

Speaker 1 (11:02):
No, that's stood under the stairs.

Speaker 5 (11:04):
Okay, okay, but you still feel confident about doing one
thousand plus piece of Lego.

Speaker 2 (11:08):
One three hundred and twenty six The gift is an idea,
isn't it. You know that's what I would love. Do
you guys know what you want for Christmas? I've told
my family this is it. This is what I want
for Christmas. Please get me this. I'll be very happy.

Speaker 5 (11:18):
Absolutely, I've known what I've wanted since the start of
the year. We went to our friend's place and they
have a Phillips automatic pasta maker.

Speaker 1 (11:26):
What's that?

Speaker 5 (11:27):
So it's just like, I guess, like the equivalent of
an ice cream machine, but for pasta. So you just
put in flour, water and then it spits out fresh past.

Speaker 1 (11:36):
So, oh, I see. Let you do with a breadmaker?

Speaker 5 (11:38):
Yes, exactly, it's like your own little like electronic no
that existed, Yes, I know, and just.

Speaker 2 (11:43):
A pasta that's a virtual non the ver none thousand
and does it taste nice?

Speaker 5 (11:52):
It tastes beautiful because pasta is just flour and water,
maybe a bit of salt.

Speaker 2 (11:55):
Oh, but it's so much more non as right now
listening in the kitchen stoner, Oh, like wagging a finger
at the radio.

Speaker 5 (12:02):
There's so much more I know, And I know they
use that you know, the big metal.

Speaker 1 (12:06):
Machine crank in that thing.

Speaker 5 (12:08):
I don't have the Nana's hands touch to be able
to do that.

Speaker 1 (12:12):
So this thing is not obviously not non a quality.
It's not a strength.

Speaker 5 (12:16):
Yes, it's not a strength, and it's pretty bloody good.
So that's my dream to have fresh past or whenever
I want.

Speaker 2 (12:21):
Twenty four to seven on demand. You already need that
gym membership to work off that heavy pass. If you've
got it on demand, pass you what are you after?

Speaker 11 (12:29):
I really really want a dice in ear wrap for
my hair, which would cost you know, a little.

Speaker 10 (12:36):
Bit of an outlay, but give us a number nine dollars?

Speaker 2 (12:40):
Why, I think about five or six hundred, right. My
wife has one and I went, what he is not
your birthday of Christmas? She went, oh no, I got
it for free with all the points that we built
up over the awesome And I'm so stupid I went
for free.

Speaker 1 (12:55):
There's only like about a week later.

Speaker 2 (13:00):
In mind that would have massive enough points at David
Jones or you get that dice for free.

Speaker 11 (13:04):
You could have gone to La probably, but it would
save so much on blow.

Speaker 2 (13:11):
No, no, no real, it's a My wife and the
two daughters they argue over this holy girl of things.

Speaker 1 (13:17):
It's a game changer. It is. No, it really is
absolutely essential.

Speaker 2 (13:20):
Because Patsy probably like my wife's hair, it's the same
as yours. It takes ages to blow yes.

Speaker 11 (13:25):
And it's curly, and it takes a bit of wrangling
every single time I do it. That's why half the
time I go to my hairdresser. She can deal with
it because I can't be bothered.

Speaker 10 (13:36):
And it costs. It costs money.

Speaker 2 (13:37):
So when we're going out, I have to backtime. I
go and listen on the restaurants. But to seven, please
don't tell me washing your hair, washing your hair show.

Speaker 1 (13:45):
I know I have tocrease. It's so greasy. Grease is
in this year. I've seen it on the grams.

Speaker 2 (13:51):
Greasy hair dank that Kirk cababe good look on a
woman because I'm like, oh god, she's washing it hair.

Speaker 1 (13:58):
It's ages. How try do you need it?

Speaker 10 (14:03):
I actually say to Chris before right, I'm having a shower.
But it's a hair shower.

Speaker 1 (14:08):
No, that's it has to get flagged up. It's that
big a deal.

Speaker 10 (14:11):
I'll see you in ninety minutes, two hours.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
I'm never allowed to come in the bathroom because apparently
that will put her off.

Speaker 1 (14:16):
When you're trying your air. Yes, go in the other
bath and me. If you're going to do something in
the background, what does it bother you?

Speaker 7 (14:22):
How much better can this hot?

Speaker 1 (14:23):
Hot air? Is hot air? How much?

Speaker 2 (14:25):
I don't know what the challenge is, but it's about
it's freeze up about it's a lot quicker. It can
be dry now in twenty minutes as oppose I'm not joking.
A red to an hour. Okay, that is actually.

Speaker 11 (14:35):
Money and it helps with flyaways as well. It's better
on your hair. Dice and do everything do.

Speaker 2 (14:41):
Vorking coin and yeah, yeah they're a triple threat, Alex,
Yes they do.

Speaker 1 (14:45):
Yeah, flat money, flat thing.

Speaker 2 (14:46):
It should be a vacuum as well, Alex, What do
you want some new Blue Jumpers?

the gym as well.

Speaker 9 (15:36):
Like I've got friends that have got SCG membership and
I'm so jealous of them.

Speaker 1 (15:39):
It's like this holy grail.

Speaker 9 (15:41):
And like the membership cards go around over the Christmas
break like you people can't go, and like if you
have one, it's just like.

Speaker 1 (15:48):
Well, MC gym membership is a really big deal.

Alicia fuss. Just a single es in there, but still
a fuss. Good evening, Christian.

Speaker 1 (22:22):
The team.

Speaker 2 (22:23):
Maybe for Lillian, a generational photo shoot might be a
nice gift idea.

Speaker 1 (22:28):
Now what is that?

Speaker 10 (22:29):
That's where the whole family gets a photo together.

Speaker 2 (22:32):
That's a beauty all the general I see now it's
called generational, so.

Speaker 1 (22:38):
It's the whole gang, like the youngest.

Speaker 2 (22:40):
It's like a team photo shoot. You got the new recruits,
the oldies on their way out.

Speaker 1 (22:48):
Not not on the way out, not on the way out.
I didn't mean that about Lilian. We need to really.

Speaker 2 (22:53):
When I mean we, I mean I need to tighten
up ready for tomorrow. That's a lovely idea, a fuss.
Thank you very much, not so thank you very much
for signing off your email. We are taking some care
with an emoji there. Alicia went with a sunflower and
I appreciate it.

Speaker 1 (23:06):
Lit me up.

Speaker 2 (23:07):
This comes from Tim Christian, you were doing on the
show recently. I was catching up on an old podcast.
Where did you get stuck in? This happened to one
of our boys on a footy trip away. A group
of us staggered out of the part and at the
end of the night headed back to our accommodation.

Speaker 1 (23:23):
On the way, we plassed a flagpole.

Speaker 2 (23:25):
One of the lads said, I want that flag, so
he climbed up the pole under the flag, put in
its jumper, and slid down the pole. Next thing we
hear is screaming. He had impelled himself on that hook
on the pole where you tie the rope off when
you raise the flag, but the hook had gone through
his shorts and into his scrotum.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
I wanted to scream screaming.

Speaker 4 (23:50):
No, no, no, no.

Speaker 1 (23:51):
It took for us.

Speaker 2 (23:53):
To lift him off high enough. Yeah, he ended up
with fifteen stitches. Must be in the bag. Actually, then
he got the nickname Nakus. Of course it's the only
nickname available with an incidant like that. Knackers and to

(24:14):
rub sort the women.

Speaker 1 (24:15):
The police turned up and charged him for stitches. Oh
my words, right in the onion bag.

Speaker 2 (24:24):
Excuse me not tomorrow, in of Lilian, we won't have
language like that.

Speaker 1 (24:27):
Salty this come some, Paul Christian.

Speaker 2 (24:31):
I'm a firefighter and I've been called out to cats,
galas and stuck magpies. There's a galar in that there
for at least a minute. He must be stuck. Are
the merchancy services just allowed to hang up forget like

(24:54):
we do?

Speaker 1 (24:55):
Email Christian.

Speaker 2 (24:57):
Once I got to count up and treat the cabin
in the tree for days, I just wasn't coming down.

Speaker 1 (25:04):
The media were waiting for us when we were like hell,
I just had the hell some the front page story
for you. Perhaps must have missed.

Speaker 2 (25:12):
That big exclusive soup cat stuck in tree for days
remains day five on cut up and tree here in Melbourne.
We sprayed water above it and it ran down on
its own. The paper gave us an average review, but
that's the best method. When they said they sprayed water,
they mean they got that big old loads lasted our

(25:33):
likeny the mega gurney. If you climb up, in my experience,
and it's good to get some real time experience here
about that, if you climb up to rescue a cat,
the cat will just claw you and climb on you.
Glars are often tame and will fly off as soon
as you get close. But sometimes glars and magpies get
string tangled around their legs.

Speaker 1 (25:53):
They're stuck there, which is why we have to go
and get them. Good knowledge.

Speaker 2 (25:56):
Paul, thank you very much and keep on firefighting. If
you got an email for the show, Christian at Christian
O'Connell dot com dot au.

Speaker 4 (26:04):
The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

Speaker 2 (26:07):
Christian any update on read cap Dad or has the
trail gone cold?

Speaker 1 (26:13):
Ice ice cold?

Speaker 2 (26:15):
And In fact, at the start of the show yesterday
I received an email saying that is my brother in
law and he's married.

Speaker 1 (26:22):
Now, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.
It's not good. It's not good. It's the opposite of
what you want.

Speaker 2 (26:30):
He is in the wind or indoors with his family,
but he is not stepping forward. We hang on to
the five hundred dollars. Rio, you can have a pastor maker,
all right. So let's do things that make you go girl.

Speaker 10 (26:47):
Heed to make you even get me started today.

Speaker 2 (26:52):
He needs to make you things that make me go girer,
putting pat singing into show production. You love.

Speaker 1 (27:00):
No one asks me, No one asks me. I am
gurring right now, Rio, what's it for you this week?
What makes you?

Speaker 2 (27:08):
What?

Speaker 1 (27:08):
Growing?

Speaker 5 (27:09):
Who told TV companies that we want smaller and smaller remotes?

Speaker 1 (27:14):
They are now so small a bar of soap, And.

Speaker 2 (27:17):
When you've been using and the slide out your hands,
it slips down the side.

Speaker 1 (27:20):
They're right.

Speaker 7 (27:21):
They're really hard to use. It's so easy to press
the wrong button.

Speaker 5 (27:24):
And they're so hard to fire because now they're the
perfect dimensions to slip down the back.

Speaker 1 (27:29):
Of your couch.

Speaker 11 (27:30):
It's a piece of paper, yes, but your eyes are
that's true.

Speaker 7 (27:34):
That is true.

Speaker 2 (27:35):
I will hold I reckon old one undred old lidion
the smash you in a night test.

Speaker 1 (27:46):
But you're right, those tiny they're so slighty. There used
to be big. They used to be chunky. You couldn't look.

Speaker 2 (27:52):
Reassuringly that fit in the palm of your hands exactly.

Speaker 1 (27:56):
This things up between two fingers. Now that means smart TV's,
it's dumb TV's.

Speaker 2 (28:00):
Yes, those old school do you remember if you won't
remember this for but is it when they first came
out remote controls were like I remember when the first
controls came out, they had a coly cable that went
from the remote to the TV like you were ringing it.

Speaker 1 (28:18):
Hey TV. That was technology, it was I would love
that now.

Speaker 11 (28:24):
Then you can never lose to hook it up to
your iPad if you want, and.

Speaker 7 (28:29):
That's just another thing you got to open and find.

Speaker 1 (28:31):
But just give me a chunky remote, old fashioned remote.

Speaker 9 (28:35):
My kids hired them too. But if they want to
watch a show, they'll put it behind the cat or someone.

Speaker 3 (28:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (28:39):
See that's where they get shoved down the side of
the couch or under the couch. The first thing you
did when you can't find it, you're like, oh no,
you have to drop down to hands and knees, start
looking under the couch and then like you know, the
FBI tossing a couch around and finding it.

Speaker 1 (28:54):
You know it's at least five minutes.

Speaker 7 (28:55):
And blaming everyone else in the family, yourself.

Speaker 2 (28:58):
It should have a thing where you press some on
your phone and then that remote control starts to sing
to you. Yes, you follow the song and you get
the remote What a beautiful song.

Speaker 1 (29:12):
Put some production, please? Looking for tomorrow? I'm over here.
There you go. It's a low ballad, is it me?
You're looking for Alex? What makes you go?

Speaker 9 (29:25):
When you take a nice bottle of wine or some
lovely champagne to someone's house and they put it away,
They don't bring it out during the festivity.

Speaker 2 (29:34):
It has been nice to be a friend of a
champagne round. Oh my god, they're not opening up my
new rider, Bubbly.

Speaker 7 (29:46):
I didn't bring that here to go in your cellar, looking.

Speaker 1 (29:52):
At the cellar.

Speaker 10 (29:55):
I don't mind when people do that.

Speaker 2 (29:58):
I mean, if you bring a decent bottle of wine
and then they just shove it and you don't want
you don't want to say something, and that's that's a
nice bottle of wine. That's not some that's not something yourself.

Speaker 4 (30:09):
You do that.

Speaker 2 (30:10):
I do that hint sometimes, like and they go, what
do you want to drink next? You want to stay
on beer. I'll go that you would that wine that
bought it is a nice one. Ah yeah, I open
up this thing o the goom bag. Yeah, come on.
I was with a friend another couple. We were getting
to live back with them, and suddenly I was like,

(30:30):
what's in your bag? He goes, Oh, the wine and
champagne they didn't use. I went the one that you.

Speaker 1 (30:34):
Turned up with. You're leaving with that man Scottish. That's
all I will say.

Speaker 2 (30:39):
I don't want to make stereotypes, but he is Scottish.
Just stealing your wine gifted to them, otherwise you never
gave it to them.

Speaker 1 (30:48):
They had it for two hours.

Speaker 13 (30:51):
Wow?

Speaker 1 (30:51):
Are you always know?

Speaker 9 (30:52):
With lots of beer in your fridge too? Because people
bring beers. I'll bring a six bag and it's all.

Speaker 2 (30:55):
Monkey chewy beer that you don't like as well?

Speaker 1 (30:59):
Art I p A or something. Yeah, Patsy, what's it
for you?

Speaker 11 (31:03):
It is these yogurt containers that I bring to work.
They're the ones that have the new in the lid,
and it's got like oh for children, No, children, no,
not at all.

Speaker 1 (31:14):
The ones are kids.

Speaker 2 (31:15):
No.

Speaker 11 (31:15):
And the foil lead is absolutely impossible, especially when you've
got nails to appeel.

Speaker 1 (31:21):
Yeah, the rest of us don't have now, so I
just have skin at the end of my thing.

Speaker 11 (31:24):
Actually I lost it last week trying to get it off.

Speaker 2 (31:28):
Okay, it's two challenges tomorrow, Lilian versus this team.

Speaker 1 (31:32):
We got Rio and the eye test.

Speaker 2 (31:34):
And now Patsy and I reckon Lillian.

Speaker 1 (31:37):
On all the tests we set her or smashed his team.

Speaker 7 (31:40):
She's more vital than any of us.

Speaker 1 (31:44):
We're part of a wheak generation.

Speaker 2 (31:46):
She's built so tough and she survived one hundred years.

Speaker 4 (31:50):
The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

Speaker 2 (31:54):
If you're in a long term relationship, a lot of
your communication is just admin just tried dar to being
transferred from one humanoid to another. Yesterday, as in a supermarket,
getting a few bits for dinner last night, I get
a message from my wife just saying, get a potato?

Speaker 1 (32:10):
One? So what do you get one?

Speaker 4 (32:13):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (32:13):
Is it Christmas? One? Do they sell them one? Do
they come in once? Who needs one potato? What's the point?
What do we do with this one? But fighting over
it to half each times, our time.

Speaker 2 (32:28):
Selling those speakers down to one potato and night, Rio,
what did you do? I don't even know nothing. We
had dinner last night. There was no potato in sights.
You know, I think I think she made herself and
just han a snack on it herself.

Speaker 1 (32:41):
Irish back.

Speaker 5 (32:46):
I got a boring text from my partner Will yesterday.
He goes, did you know the bakery have a new
bread slicer?

Speaker 1 (32:53):
What am I supposed to do with?

Speaker 2 (32:54):
Yeah? But that that is that is that's no, that's
good in channel No. What I mean is I find
myself messaging my wife yesterdays saying, hey, listen, outside the
house around the corner is a brand new skip that's
just been delivered. Oh yeah, yeah, everyone loves a skip,
So I'll be making a little sneaky a visit to
that tonight. When you see one of those and it's

(33:16):
the real big flat one of those big flat ass.

Speaker 1 (33:18):
Ones, I'm like, wowee, it's gonna that is a treat.
It's like a quarter full. Yeah no, and it's empty
at the moment.

Speaker 2 (33:25):
It might be flown because word will get around. In fact,
louse lips have said too much already. I made a
terrible mistake by the time I get there this afternoon,
buddy listeners using that skip. It's a gift for the community.
Is it an empty one? Everyone has a little twitch.
The curtains go about the shot is going from bloody. Yeah,
it's a big one as well. Chuck some of that
in tonight. All right, So Things that make a good

(33:45):
GUR got a very good email here from William Ramsey Christian.
I just want to clarify some comment comments Alex made
about bringing wine to somebody's house. The wine is designed
as a gift for your hosts. They don't have to
open it and share it with you. That's for them
for later. I'm a blue collar bogan and still know
this help William very funny. I love the phrase is

(34:10):
there a weekly feature on blue collar Bogan?

Speaker 1 (34:13):
I love that phrase? But is there a white collar?
I thought blue collar?

Speaker 2 (34:18):
We need to try and differentiate with what they are.
What what is the market? What's what signifies the difference
between a blue collar bogan and a white Yeah?

Speaker 1 (34:28):
A Christian morning team? What makes us go?

Speaker 2 (34:31):
Our TV remote has an Apple air tag inside it.

Speaker 1 (34:35):
No more lost remote.

Speaker 2 (34:36):
Those Apple ones are in it because they're like tiny, tiny,
It's a sliver, that silver thing, It's a sliver. Christian
things are mad me go grew cupboard food packaging? Why
do they put so much glue close to the packet
you end up ripping the packaging and then you can't
resee that.

Speaker 1 (34:51):
That's so true, Keith.

Speaker 2 (34:53):
Great spot, Christian, what about them? When a new line
opens up at the supermarket, and clearly you should be
in pole position, but somebody slides in from the wings
and takes a new p one position, and it's not
their right, it's common courtesy.

Speaker 5 (35:07):
I disagree that is free for all. As soon as
that light goes up.

Speaker 7 (35:10):
It is a race, a blue.

Speaker 1 (35:13):
Collar bogan and I know this. Christian.

Speaker 2 (35:18):
Can you tell Patsy to stab it in the middle
with your spoon and then peel it around the edge? No,
it's savage yea, it is again savage behavior.

Speaker 4 (35:30):
Christian O'Connell show on podcast.

Speaker 2 (35:33):
This is a personal message to Dave Higgins, who is
on this fine radio station after us. I am not
your concierge service. If you're running late, don't be clogging
up my inbox telling me to tell the boss and
asking me that I might have to stay on for
the half an hour you say he's stuck in some
traffic jam on the monash. Shout out to everyone else's

(35:56):
on with our mid morning General Higo the show, he
sort of yeah, yeah, yeah, oh hi, I don't worry.
Maybe a part two of the phonetic alphabets going back
the entertain all your listener, I'll get them turning off on.

Speaker 1 (36:10):
Half our audience for you. Don't worry.

Speaker 2 (36:13):
Christian, what gets my choices flowing? That is not what
I've asked you ever. It's called what makes you go Guru?
We're doing that Friday, by the way. It's when you're
in line at the supermarket and the check out and
the person behind you starts nudging.

Speaker 1 (36:27):
You with their trolley to push you forward. No one's
ever done that. That's fight.

Speaker 2 (36:31):
That is what Christian white collar bogans drink red and
white rum. What makes me people go guru is when
there are people that go to the discount fridge at
the supermarket and clear it out common courtesies to take
only a few things, leave some for the rest of us.

Speaker 5 (36:46):
Yes, I saw someone with a whole trolley of sweet
and condensed milk.

Speaker 1 (36:53):
What are they making cake? For?

Speaker 2 (36:55):
Twenty Christian blue collar Bogans drink Laga and eat pies
watching the V eight Bathurst white collar bogans drink Kraft beer.
And our sharkoutu bars board while watching the vat Bathurst
Christian one makes me go GURTs people who put their
crap in my skipping Listen, it's coming tonight at nine

(37:19):
o'clock under the cover of darkness. All right, we can
do three tub at tuesdays. All right, So we have
three ways you can get your stories on the show
now every single week up for graps thanks Toomer Sandy's
Ben's berrick is one thousand dollars which you win it

(37:40):
instantly when we hear a great story. We had some
brilliant ones last week. We often give us away turn
this feature. And when we do three different phonings at
the same time, I know what we're trained in radio
only do one topic per break.

Speaker 1 (37:54):
No, we throw it out of the window.

Speaker 2 (37:55):
On the show because we know you're smarter than us.
You can open up a yogurt pot. Patsy Kuhn Rio
cannot see he's blinds anyway, the three topics. Friend of
mine had to cremate and do something with his dad's
ashes last week. Here's dad a lovely man. He loves
steam trains and so I didn't know you could do this.

(38:18):
There's a thing on a steam train where they put
the coal in.

Speaker 1 (38:21):
You can also if.

Speaker 2 (38:22):
You're seam trained lover the family can ride in that
bit too on a journey and put some of the
ashes into the fire I think it's called the fire
in or the fire bucket into there and it goes
up and it drives the steam train.

Speaker 1 (38:34):
That's amazing, Billy, Yes, yes.

Speaker 2 (38:38):
So we've had so many incredible stories before of what
did you do with the ashes? It really goes how
you wanted to go. In fact, my friend John's story
that's the only time I've heard it actually just be
executed well normally. Like I remember, there was one story
heard a couple of years ago of someone returning their
granddad who wanted to be cremated and his ashes released
on Loch Loman Lake in Scotland, and so they took

(39:01):
the ashes all the way from Melbourne to Scotland. They're
on this boat and it's obviously a tourist one. There's
about thirty other people on it as well. They suddenly go, well,
now's a good a time as any throw it up.

Speaker 1 (39:10):
In the air. It's Scotland. A big gust of wind changes.

Speaker 2 (39:14):
Suddenly Granddad is on everybody else including some big fat,
angry Yanks.

Speaker 1 (39:21):
You know, yes, So what did you do with the ashes?

Speaker 2 (39:28):
We've had so many stories over the years, great ones
about what did you do with the ashes?

Speaker 1 (39:32):
That's one of them. Where were you born?

Speaker 2 (39:34):
That's a story about a mum who gave Birthpats if
you heard her this in her car in the.

Speaker 1 (39:40):
Driveway of the hospital in Logan. Yes, she got to
the driveway.

Speaker 2 (39:45):
But when it's coming, the babies are coming, don't want
this is incredible story. The midwife saw what was happening
because they've been speaking to the phone, ran out to
attend to her in her car.

Speaker 1 (39:56):
It now are you in?

Speaker 2 (39:58):
They ran to her, got in the car and delivered
the baby safely. Mum and baby doing very well. So,
if you weren't born than hospital, where were you born?
Imagine that in the driveway hospital, waiting two hundred meters there.

Speaker 1 (40:14):
You still say you're born at the hospital? You are
at the hospital ground. Hey, I don't know that park.

Speaker 2 (40:20):
In the hospital is a lot of money. That's expensive, baby.
So where were you born? If you weren't born in
the hospital, where were you born? And participated nose of
a car with a very large odometer can you top this.

Speaker 1 (40:33):
What are those schools on the board.

Speaker 8 (40:34):
Yes, So one of my best friends is selling her
car that she had while we were in high school,
so fifteen.

Speaker 1 (40:40):
Years oh wow.

Speaker 8 (40:41):
Yeah, and it's O dominant reading is three hundred and
sixteen thousand kilometers.

Speaker 2 (40:46):
Oh my god, that's going to be one of only
eight or nine in the world with that.

Speaker 1 (40:53):
Is anyone buying that if you go.

Speaker 11 (40:55):
To car but you know it runs, you know it
was fair part said that sort of life, or someone
might put your whole new engine in it.

Speaker 1 (41:03):
True, it's obviously been very well looked after.

Speaker 4 (41:05):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (41:06):
So her father was a mechanic, so every time, yeah,
taken care of. So it's actually a good quality car
if you do want to buy it.

Speaker 10 (41:12):
It is on the Gold Coast, all right.

Speaker 2 (41:14):
You takeing a little bit commission drive it back from
there under Melbourne, adding up that odometer.

Speaker 5 (41:20):
Actually, so my mate was his grandma was towards the

we We've got a big site where we go from
building to building to buildings, so just you know, during
bleeding patients, and we needed a car to do it.
And yeah, this car had been going forever, yeah until
I crashed it.

Speaker 1 (44:02):
Oh what you do?

Speaker 3 (44:04):
Yeah, I wasn't paying attention. One time I was talking
to the colleague in the car and I clipped a
garter and went straight into a new garden bed. The
car sunk down into the new dirt, hit the lamp post,
crumpled like you wouldn't believe.

Speaker 1 (44:22):

truck to pull it down. I was in kius though,
thinking I'm in so much trouble with the company. When

didn't make it to the hospital in time. Obviously, on
the phone to emergency services, and my brother caught both
of them as my sister in law delivered them as them. Yes, yeah, yeah.

They had another, like a third child.

Speaker 2 (46:04):
Genetic, isn't it You go that women get it from
their mum normally, if it all goes on, there's not
a comp location. Yeah, so if her mum gave birth quickly,
they so that's why it would have happened second time round.
You would think maybe don't take the shower if it's
due late today, because that kid's coming out in there.

Speaker 1 (46:19):

Speaker 2 (47:08):
Just got a message from a great Aussie name Brett Kohne.
There's something wrong with your transmission, Christian. That's not the
first time I've heard that, Brett. It's very crackly. All
the other stations are fine. The game hates us. The
game does not want us to do well. Sabotage. Can
you hear my words? Can you hear my words? What

(47:32):
do we need to do now? By the way, yeah,
what's the next step? How do we escalate this?

Speaker 7 (47:36):
Does someone go up to the top of the station
fiddle with.

Speaker 2 (47:40):
As I read as sort of blue color. Bogan's probably
got tools and spanners. Can you go and shimmy up
the old transmitter? Give it a work turn, turn the
station on and off.

Speaker 10 (47:48):
Again, guys, make sure the plug's plugged in.

Speaker 1 (47:51):
Yeah, right now.

Speaker 2 (47:53):
This radio station's door has been stuck open for day
eleven I calculating it early when I was getting a
cup of tea. Eleven days has been gaffetate open because
if it closes, you can't get out. And worried about
this litian, this one hundred year old coming into my
getting stuck in the station. There's no way to spend
your one hundredth year. This planet is stuck at this

(48:13):
radio station.

Speaker 1 (48:14):
And you one of the emergency door.

Speaker 9 (48:15):

Speaker 2 (48:39):
I hear that your o dormitor can smash seven hundred,
one thousand wiches.

Speaker 1 (48:44):

Not mine, but it is my husband's he's a mobile
mechanic and he's Toyota high. Then currently sits at one
point six million.

Speaker 1 (48:55):
Kilometers one point six.

Speaker 15 (48:58):
It still goes, and it still goes.

Speaker 1 (49:01):
They built to last.

Speaker 2 (49:02):
Now tell me this because on the old dormitors it's
just six digits, isn't it. It's not the capacity from
eight or nine. I want to get up into several million.
So does it go back around?

Speaker 1 (49:12):
It?

Speaker 15 (49:13):
Sure does, so he always says it's on its second cycle, second.

Speaker 1 (49:17):
Lap around the planet. That's great. So one point six million.

Speaker 15 (49:23):
One point six million, Tom, because he's had it since here,
he brought it back in nineteen ninety eight and running
on LPG since then, and it still does. And yet
it still does. At one point if he tried to
retire it and we turned it into a camper van
and then the work card that he had, he had
a car accident so we had to rip everything out
and he had to start it up as his work

(49:44):
car again. So yeah, it's it's he's still going.

Speaker 2 (49:48):
I love the fell that built with us. Frank A
great story. Thanks for calling him. I have a good
day you two.

Speaker 1 (49:52):

Speaker 1 (50:34):
Wow, so over two went over two million.

Speaker 14 (50:38):
Yes, we've been up to New South Wales about three times.

Speaker 1 (51:14):
Helen. Good morning, good morning, Christian.

Speaker 13 (51:17):
How are you.

Speaker 1 (51:17):
I'm good? Now you've got to stalk about what did
you do with the ashes?

Speaker 13 (51:20):
It wasn't me, it was my ex. So when his
father passed away, he was in control of the funeral,
you know, organizing everything, and he picked up the ashes.
But the family weren't talking. So he thought, well, how
do I get everyone involved? Because you know, of the
spreading of the ashes, they won't you know, we can't

(51:41):
get them all together. So he came up with this
plan to separate the ashes. He puts content of the
you know, the the ashes into little plastic bags and
sent it out in the post to everyone with the
letter dating you know you can do whatever you want.
He's your part of Dad's ashes. The letters arrived.

Speaker 1 (52:03):
How did you get that post?

Speaker 2 (52:05):
Warning, little banky Hill chop him up and snort him.

Speaker 13 (52:12):
Well, little Baggies had been intercepted and insided with the
letter was a card from Australia Coast saying that they
confiscated the content because they were suspicious.

Speaker 1 (52:31):
Yeah. Absolutely, you can't send baggies in the post.

Speaker 13 (52:36):
Granddad probably in some contamination bin in the stone.

Speaker 1 (52:43):
Not what he would have wanted. You didn't get him.

Speaker 13 (52:46):
He wanted.

Speaker 2 (52:47):
You can't go and speak to him and go can
we have a rummage in the bend and get the
baggies out?

Speaker 14 (52:52):
Yeah?

Speaker 13 (52:52):
No, no, It actually had one benefit. The whole family
started talking again about.

Speaker 1 (53:02):
The story. So it worked well.

Speaker 13 (53:04):
It got the family talking.

Speaker 1 (53:06):
Yes, helst he's happy right now and that contamination been somewhere.

Speaker 15 (53:13):
That's it.

Speaker 2 (53:14):
What a great story, Helen, that's true. I didn't doubt it.
Let's not hold out of the end. Hell, it's a
lovely story. Thank you very much for calling. And it's
one hundred percent trough because it happened.
