Got anything good?
Speaker 3 (00:19):
Hey, this is the Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1 (00:27):
Good morning Rio, good morning, Good morning Alex, Morning, Good
morning Patsy. Some team members must think that we are stupid.
There's a guy works on the show called Lockey Right,
and he's a mega NRL fan. Suddenly, last night halftime
I get a message from the team.
Speaker 4 (00:43):
Look, he's not feeling very well. Oh is that right?
I bet he's probably like eight beers here.
Speaker 1 (00:49):
He's like, oh, this is going to be a good
second half, and suddenly he's not well. He's also a
major fan of the F one. It was the Singapore
Grand Prix. Put that all together. Now, wonder he's not
in today.
Speaker 5 (01:01):
He's feeling unwaiting, unwill Yeah, the timing was very peculiar.
Speaker 1 (01:05):
Late Sunday night, second half. I don't know. Watching a
whole Grand Final last night, it was so exciting, it
was incredible.
Speaker 4 (01:13):
Yeah did you watch, Alex?
Speaker 1 (01:14):
I did.
Speaker 6 (01:15):
I watched every single scintillating, wonderful.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
Beautiful film. I'm really sorry for storm. It was similar
to the story to the Grand final last weekend, where
something happens at halftime one coach or I don't know
what happens where the second half is completely different game. Yeah,
how was that rank? With NRL ground finals the best?
Speaker 7 (01:32):
I reckon it one of the best by far, so close.
Incredible game. It was the highest scoring first half ever
in a Grand final, right, yeah, twenty two points NRL.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
Ground final I've ever seen. And I was going to
watch the first half then go to bed because we
were off last week, but it was too gripping. I
stayed and watch the whole thing. And also I thought
afterwards the players, so both teams spoke so well they.
Speaker 7 (01:54):
Did they did, and disappointing but really supportive of their
teams and people like Race Walsh as well. He's an
absolute superstar of the NRL. I'm trying to think here
we compared to in the AFL, young, good looking.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
Very very good player Bailey Smith.
Speaker 6 (02:09):
Bailey Smith, yeah yeah yeah, and.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
Also similar personality and.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Oh look at this, Bailey Smith's a bit of a
flog And also, like Reice had a phenomenal Grand Final,
Bailly Smith did not have a great Grand Final the
way he was mouthing off in the second half. It
was like, dude, you like thirty points down? What do
you do your job? My favorite of the second half
of the of the Cats Lions Grand Finals when it's headman, Now,
(02:42):
tell me this. What do we all think about nighttime
Grand Finals? And I know this is a really big topic, right,
people get very upset AFL fans like it's an institution.
It's always on a Saturday afternoon. I get that. But
nighttime Grand finals TV wise do look better.
Speaker 4 (02:59):
It looks awesome.
Speaker 5 (03:00):
The nri O Grand Final music performance is lit better exactly.
Speaker 6 (03:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
I feel like there's an electric line in the air
as well. Yes, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5 (03:07):
Even the half time show, which was just a DJ,
looked awesome. It was just DJ Havannah Brown, who's famous
from two thousand and seven.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Maybe I was watching with an English friend of mine, right,
who's a is actually a pe teacher. Okay, watch this
on Mega School in Singapore, Singapore, that's where it is
where there's three thousand students at his school. He has
forty different sports coaches answering to him. Oh wow, great,
he was watching. This is the first na L Grand
(03:36):
Final he's ever seen. He's played rugby league in the
UK to a high level, and halftime was like.
Speaker 4 (03:40):
What the hell is happening now? Oh, I'm it's a
DJ for a bit.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
AFL one halftime is a random race between some of
the players that nothing is no, like, it's not like
a big thing, do you know? Oh and some and
so one. Anyway, when we come back from the break and.
Speaker 4 (04:00):
I'm like, what why do you do that?
Speaker 1 (04:03):
Why are they.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
Dressed like that in tights?
Speaker 5 (04:05):
They've got the ties with no shorter round shot right
orange times.
Speaker 4 (04:09):
It is not a flattering.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Look tradition tradition, It's just strange foot race between some
of the plays.
Speaker 5 (04:16):
Yes, yeah, that are just randomly, not even the fastest
ones like Toby Green.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Was there, I know a random Yeah. Do they draw
lots And it's like it's a punishment if you have
a good season, but you know what you're going to
have to do, not the old foot rate.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
What do you think about nighttime grand finals?
Speaker 1 (04:33):
Oh?
Speaker 7 (04:34):
I think it's too late, especially for young kids, and
young kids want to stay up and watch their idols
and their heroes. I just think I think a grand
final are five thirty twilight. I know the AFL are
really looking hard into that. I just think a Twilight
Grand Final, the sun is setting. It worked to a treat.
It worked really well in Perth when the days won
(04:55):
over there. I just think it looked magic. So it's
just too late. It's gidding.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
But haven't they got like a public holiday today? They do,
they do, but they are seven. I mean, how light
weight are the kids of Australia.
Speaker 6 (05:07):
I'm going to please?
Speaker 4 (05:08):
Can I go to bed seven one? It was seven
thirty five.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
It's too late by the time this country goes to
bed real early. When I moved here, I couldn't believe
that even the street lights start dimming, like seven o'clock
the time everyone Now, restaurants start closing up at nine pm.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
Sydney's even earlier.
Speaker 5 (05:31):
Sydney's crazy restaurant's closing, you know, eight o'clock.
Speaker 4 (05:34):
Everyone's everyone week.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
I'm going to play a song now when we come back.
Someone on this show was scoping out Sydney over the week.
We'll get Patsy's report.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
Next the Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
Patsy, how's your week off? What do you get up too?
Speaker 8 (05:50):
Mach we flew up to Sydney, had the most sensational
long weekend up there.
Speaker 9 (05:55):
The minute you land, the weather was incredible.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
So you were their grand final weekend. Yeah, obviously you
hate Footy Victoria on that Thursday show when we were
going you don't want a big Footy fan fight you on.
No one likes it harder than me, No one likes
it more than me, and we put those flights to
get out of the city as soon as everyone starts arriving.
The air botm has been so quiet going out of
(06:21):
Melbourne going that way as the country's coming into it.
Speaker 9 (06:24):
Going against the time.
Speaker 8 (06:25):
No, it was funny because we had to be back
at them at the hotel by like one or twelve thirty,
so Chris could sit in front of the telly and
watch the TV and Audrey and I thought, oh no,
we're going to go out. But the weather was great.
It was like thirty thirty one sunshine.
Speaker 1 (06:41):
Now tell me there's Pats and be honest, right, and
some of lists might not realize there's some show news,
but from January next year we're going live into Sydney
and all of Australia in the morning, right, So very
very exciting times. Were you also scoping out ahead of
our you know us being on air in Sydney.
Speaker 9 (06:57):
Yeah, of course I was.
Speaker 1 (06:58):
That sent me a very bad photo right of Sydney
Harbor Bridge, and well a third of it was Sydney
Harbor Bridge. Two thirdsy was a church and at first
I didn't know whether she'd had a conversion. So what
are we seeing here? She's found the Lord and she
was like, it's just hit me, what's happening. It was like,
it's like she heard me two months ago say we're
(07:20):
going national and then she got to Sydney saw the
Harbor Bridge went oh, he means, yeah, that's the place
with the bridge. I said, to perhaps go into that
church and say a prayer for us. It's a lot
of upset Jones and Amanda fans light a candle like
candle for the show.
Speaker 9 (07:36):
This is the enormity.
Speaker 8 (07:37):
When we landed, I thought, hang on, we're actually doing this.
Speaker 9 (07:40):
That's right, Yeah, we are doing this.
Speaker 8 (07:42):
And it's not until you've sort of engulfed in the
city and how massive it is and it's such a
beautiful place. But yeah, I went to the theater there
and saw Back to the Future the musical, which was
out of this world, and the highlight at the end,
which I didn't know was going to happen.
Speaker 9 (07:57):
Co creator Bob Gail, Oh.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Wow, I's a co writer, Yeah, with Robertsonmachus.
Speaker 9 (08:02):
Yes, came out on stage.
Speaker 8 (08:04):
He was there for like the first few performances and
spoke for like ten minutes.
Speaker 9 (08:09):
It's just insane. If you get a chance, get up
there and see it. It is brilliant.
Speaker 8 (08:15):
At the Lyric Theater, it was just honestly, hands down,
the best thing I have ever seen in musical theater.
Speaker 6 (08:22):
You've seen them all outs.
Speaker 9 (08:25):
Outstanding, and the Dolorean is there.
Speaker 8 (08:28):
It comes out over the I don't want to give
too much away, but it comes out over.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
If our listeners are going to go and see that
it came out over the ground spoiler. Oh no, surely
when you get there you probably see like a hydraulic
sort of film.
Speaker 9 (08:46):
The way they do it is just fantastic.
Speaker 8 (08:49):
Shocked with getting there was a bit of a drama,
I say so. Apparently since we last flew with a
certain airline, they're check in has now like blown out
double You've got to be there like doubly early, and
we didn't know that, and so we flew out of
Avalon when we got there, we had a problem heading
into park because all the boomgates were stuck down. So
(09:12):
I don't know if you've been to Avalon, but it's
a little bit into the terminal.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
It's that thing you accidentally go when you this flights
are so cheap and you go, you Melbourne all airports thing.
Speaker 8 (09:29):
I had to get out of the car flee into
the terminal. This was at five am. We had a
six am flight, and we think, no, it's okay, we're.
Speaker 4 (09:35):
What you got there at five.
Speaker 9 (09:37):
Oh, it's stacks of to No.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
I would have been there at four. No, no domestic,
no wait, no, no, no, those.
Speaker 8 (09:44):
Boom gates open at four anyway, they weren't working. So
I had to track down the security guy and he said, oh, no,
you're going through the wrong entrance.
Speaker 9 (09:52):
Anyway, we sorted that out. So going through, Yeah, we
went long the long.
Speaker 8 (09:57):
Term and we needed to go to like just the
short term or something. And it was dark. You couldn't see.
Speaker 1 (10:03):
The chance of those boom gates being stuck. I don't
know what the other version of the story is, but it's
a there's griswolves turning up late.
Speaker 9 (10:11):
Well, we're never late for flights. This is the thing.
Speaker 6 (10:14):
You came there at five for six flot It's fine.
Speaker 8 (10:16):
So we get there, but like five twenty two and
the flight closed at five twenty and she said, look,
I'm sorry, but you've missed the flight. And we're like, yeah,
but everyone's lining up to go through security and she
said no, no, no, it closes at like, you know, forty
minutes before now.
Speaker 9 (10:30):
And I said, isn't it thirty?
Speaker 8 (10:32):
She goes, no, it's forty and I said, oh gosh,
I didn't realize. And so we're standing there. What are
we going to do?
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Oh gosh, I didn't realize. You do everyone knows.
Speaker 9 (10:40):
No, didn't realize.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
We don't for minutes before the flight.
Speaker 8 (10:42):
We don't check in like you know when you get
the email check in for your flight.
Speaker 9 (10:46):
Now, we don't do that. We're like, what I'd like
to do it at.
Speaker 4 (10:49):
The No, that's INSIDEE do that? Literally they probably don't
even have the technology to do.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
We've got to get plug the computer in to the landlight.
Speaker 4 (11:02):
Why do you want Christra admin.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
When you get that it's very five am.
Speaker 3 (11:07):
No.
Speaker 8 (11:07):
I just figure I had one case to check in,
which was mine, right, a big case, And I thought, well,
We've got to check the case in anyway, so I'll
just check it.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
So no one else your husband, or do it to
no clothes.
Speaker 6 (11:17):
You just had your case.
Speaker 8 (11:18):
No, well they had they had carry on, so they
had We had two carry on cases, which one was
already is one was a love God's and I had
my big case to check through. And so she said,
hang on, let me get the manager. I'll see if
we can get you on.
Speaker 9 (11:30):
And Chris is like, I don't understand why we've got tickets.
And I said, oh no, I don't know.
Speaker 4 (11:33):
You can't just rock up when you want.
Speaker 1 (11:36):
It's how it works around the world, though system they
closed the gate.
Speaker 4 (11:39):
It's very clear everyone knows full time, I.
Speaker 8 (11:42):
Realized it had changed anyway. So the manager came and
she said, look, I've got you on the flight. I said, oh,
thank you, that's so awesome. But she said, baggage has
obviously closed, so you can't check in your big case.
Speaker 9 (11:52):
You can only do carry on. I thought, oh.
Speaker 8 (11:55):
She said, you've got like literally two minutes to get
get your cases through security.
Speaker 9 (12:00):
And onto the plane.
Speaker 10 (12:01):
So it was we were Audrey and I were on
all fours, shucking stuff the floor.
Speaker 3 (12:09):
Chris is just.
Speaker 9 (12:09):
Standing there not.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
Horrify.
Speaker 8 (12:12):
There were bras, there were niggers, there were shoes, there
was a hair dryer.
Speaker 9 (12:16):
It was just ridiculous.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
A look am on a Saturday morning and.
Speaker 9 (12:24):
Chris is like, oh, we'll just get a later flight.
And I said, we.
Speaker 4 (12:26):
Can't get a later flight. They're all book stop, just stop.
You gotta help.
Speaker 8 (12:31):
Anyway, having a meltdown and check there just is not
my finest moment. So everyone else in security was like
laughing looking at us, and I thought.
Speaker 9 (12:41):
I can't care. I can't care.
Speaker 4 (12:42):
How ridiculous. What about your bear?
Speaker 1 (12:45):
I also thinking, so I said to Christy, I didn't
have to be detonate my border patrol.
Speaker 9 (12:50):
I said, leave the suitcase back again.
Speaker 6 (12:52):
We need to just.
Speaker 4 (12:53):
Get in it. Just got a suitcase. It's a lot
of suspicious.
Speaker 8 (12:57):
Anyway, the manager said, you're gonna have to take the
suitcase back to the car in the car park. I
said to Chris, you need to run. Chris, of course
he did, so he can flae you back to the car,
put the case in the car while Audrey and I
went through security. And then as he came to go
through security, there was something wrong with the belt and
it stopped and we're like waving at the gate like
(13:20):
come on, come on.
Speaker 9 (13:21):
It was just too close.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
This whole thing, like, this whole thing's ridiculous. The rest
of the flight passes must been clocking them and going
Melbourne Bogan.
Speaker 4 (13:34):
All fours.
Speaker 9 (13:36):
It was just oh, man, so yeah, did you got this?

nowhere exactly.

There's no one around, no one around for like a
twenty minute drive.

of map.
Speaker 5 (18:18):
So it was out maybe twenty minutes north past Caynton
and the beautiful Yeah. You take this dirt track and
you follow this little map that they give you and
then you find that you have to do it.
Speaker 1 (18:29):
Wow, So it's an adventure the moment you start to
go there.
Speaker 5 (18:32):
Yes, yeah, yeah, so you have to follow all these
directions to actually find the tiny home because it is
really remote.
Speaker 4 (18:37):
It's just out in the wilderness.
Speaker 9 (18:39):
Panic.
Speaker 5 (18:39):
Yeah, but it's in like this was like it was
on top of a hill. It was so.
Speaker 1 (18:44):
Beautiful and there's no one else around.
Speaker 4 (18:46):
There's no one around. You can do whatever you want.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
Are you oldly scared? As well?
Speaker 5 (18:52):
A little bit at night because one of the knights
was howling wind and rain and you're in this tiny
little shack you like, I think it's in the middle
of I think, you think might blow away.
Speaker 4 (19:01):
And then you hear like a your brain thing. Someone
goes that a lion or something. Obviously not its arrange, exactly.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
Lost to life.
Speaker 4 (19:12):
The lines come in.
Speaker 1 (19:14):

But oh my god, it was so much Sure did
you read?
Speaker 6 (19:21):
I read?
Speaker 4 (19:22):

Speaker 5 (19:24):
It was almost what you didn't do, Like I didn't
talk to a single soul, I had no responsibilities.
Speaker 4 (19:32):
I did crosswords for the first time.
Speaker 5 (19:33):
I'm now really into crosswords.
Speaker 4 (19:38):
I just read my book. I walked. It was bliss
It was.
Speaker 9 (19:43):
Or anything like international.
Speaker 1 (19:44):
There was no teenager you want to go out and
start scrolling from the screen.
Speaker 9 (19:50):
To watch Netflix.
Speaker 4 (19:52):
Out there you could watch Netflix. I didn't.
Speaker 5 (19:54):
I think that I probably had my taeilstrap coverage, but
there was no Wi Fi or anything like that. But
I turned my phone off for the whole time. Yeah,
it was amazing. Yeah, the whole point is so lovely,
just chatting to the birds. I saw the feel of
people that are bird watches, which I always thought was like,
you're like wonderful yea.
Speaker 1 (20:18):
That nature is like always there around us, but we're
never fully absorbing it or in it with it.
Speaker 4 (20:24):
Definitely, And now I noticed birds all.
Speaker 6 (20:25):
The time, always there, always there.
Speaker 1 (20:28):
Don't you find it? Though? When you spend time in
nature and you're really immersed in it, away from your
phone and not checking your phone every copment.
Speaker 4 (20:34):
It gives you just resets who we really are. Yeah,
it is so nurished.
Speaker 1 (20:39):
Those three days you were there about we're equivalent of
having a three week break. Yes.
Speaker 5 (20:43):
I came out of it just like so peaceful. It's
so nice. It's crazy what your brain, your phones do
to your brains, like they rewireus.
Speaker 1 (20:51):
And you think about when you go on holiday. The
first thing you do when you get hotel rooms like
what's what's yes? Yeh have to get all the Yeah,
so what do you.
Speaker 4 (21:01):
What do you want to do?
Speaker 1 (21:02):
You're on holiday? Yeah, you know, what do you actually
want to do? So?
Speaker 4 (21:05):
Was that an amazing experience? It was amazing.
Speaker 5 (21:07):
I've already booked another one in for our next radio
break actually here.
Speaker 1 (21:11):
So what did you do in the evening Because normally
in the evening you'll be streaming stuff, you'd be watching stuff.
What did you actually do? Do you cook for yourself?
And then?
Speaker 4 (21:18):
Yeah?
Speaker 5 (21:18):
I cooked, So I got a big loaf of like
what I call a big baguette, and then I had
a bunch of Deli meats and blue cheese and I
was just smearing blue cheese and prestudo on and I
was just doing that for a lot of the evening.
Speaker 4 (21:30):
I was reading my book. That's it. And then I
went to bed as soon as it went dark.
Speaker 1 (21:34):
It was perfect and what a great reset. All right,
let's catch up with producer Tina. Now, who's moved. How
did the move go? Tina?
Speaker 11 (21:44):
It went good. It was stressful, like very stressful.
Speaker 1 (21:46):
Actually got like two bags.
Speaker 11 (21:50):
I had ten boxes that all I had was one
bedroom worth.
Speaker 4 (21:56):
A Greek memorabilia.
Speaker 1 (22:01):
It's a mousaka. So what was stressful about it? It
always is moving, isn't it.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
Oh?
Speaker 11 (22:09):
I was just a lot to pack unpack.
Speaker 10 (22:11):
The removalsts couldn't find anywhere to park, so it took
them an hour to find a parking spot.
Speaker 11 (22:16):
That was stressful, cost more money, just a lot.
Speaker 4 (22:19):
And so how are you? How many nights have you had?
Speaker 1 (22:21):
Because the first cut of nights when you move somewhere new,
I always find really hard to relax at nighttime.
Speaker 11 (22:27):
I haven't slept really, I think I've been there for
four nights. It's just very coil.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
The bed being positioned a different way around.
Speaker 11 (22:33):
My bed's weird. My bedside tables do?
Speaker 1 (22:35):
Why is your bed weird? It's a special Greek one.
Speaker 11 (22:38):
I feel like the mattress is on the wrong way.
Speaker 4 (22:40):
I don't know.
Speaker 11 (22:44):
The wall, it's just wrong. Everything's wrong.
Speaker 4 (22:46):
Oh no, what do you mean?
Speaker 6 (22:48):
I mean it's wrong.
Speaker 11 (22:49):
I thought it was flipped wrong, but it was my imagination.
Speaker 9 (22:52):
I don't know.
Speaker 11 (22:52):
Just the vibe is wrong. But I'll get there.
Speaker 4 (22:55):
Have you have you like done like some cleansing for it?
Speaker 1 (22:59):
You know? Let a candle or anything. Yeah, saved it.
Speaker 11 (23:01):
It hasn't got bad juju, so I don't need to
save it just yet. But I've lit a candle.
Speaker 1 (23:06):
A right partisickead? What do you get up to in
the week off?
Speaker 12 (23:09):
So I didn't leave where a bee, which was quitture.
Speaker 1 (23:15):
I musk that was a terrible reality show where people
are actually just stuck in where I can't leave.
Speaker 5 (23:21):
It sounds like a punishment, yeah for young offenders.
Speaker 10 (23:27):
No, it was a bloody joyous and I really enjoyed it.
Got to know my neighbors a bit better. So I
did a bit of gardening and I also perfected coffee.
Speaker 4 (23:36):
So we just wow, wow, and so hard, isn't it?
What the beans?
Speaker 1 (23:41):
The machine?
Speaker 10 (23:43):
I have a separate grinder, so I've gone full pro
coffee maker, and so I've got a separate grinder on site.
I grind my own coffee and I weigh it.
Speaker 12 (23:52):
I weigh it and everything, and then I tamper it.
I pop it in and then I weigh it as
it goes into the.
Speaker 4 (23:59):
Mate and makes a difference completely different.
Speaker 10 (24:02):
So I don't need to go to a cafe anymore.
I have a cafe at home and I'm the brewster.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
That sort of thing, a bogan.
Speaker 4 (24:10):
I don't need to go to.
Speaker 1 (24:14):
Anymore.
Speaker 6 (24:15):
It's better than them what I do.
Speaker 9 (24:18):
It's like six dollars temperate away, temperate beans? Are you using?
You know what, Pats?
Speaker 12 (24:27):
I actually started on Aldi and the reason bean is
I just needed cheap ones to test everything out. But
the problem with that is, now that I've gone to
the professional ones, I now have to rejig the calibration.
Speaker 11 (24:41):
Yeah, the calibration exactly.
Speaker 1 (24:42):
Going to recalculate your calculations of your Einstein.
Speaker 10 (24:45):
I actually do, and now the way's different, and but
now I've perfected it, and it's very, very lovely.
Speaker 4 (24:51):
Now.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
I love the fact that you say you were you
met your neighbors of that, Tina, have you gone around
when you move somewhere new, you always should go and
say local neighbors. You might need them to look after
a parcel one day or absolutely not.
Speaker 11 (25:02):
You don't talk to strangers.
Speaker 1 (25:03):
Oh no, I know you workch in London. No no, no,
no no, you don't meet your neighbors in three years.
Speaker 4 (25:11):
I wouldn't know from it. Just in the apartment block.
Speaker 6 (25:15):
I don't know.
Speaker 5 (25:16):
There's a there's almost a hostility and apartment blocks where
you see your neighbors almost as rivals, just for like,
you know, taking this good spots or like blocking up
the post diage. And everyone's complaining the Facebook group. I've
never knocked on their door, they've never knocked on hello. No,
I have no interest in it.
Speaker 4 (25:33):
No, why would I need might need them one day
for what.
Speaker 1 (25:38):
Might need some help.
Speaker 5 (25:40):
I'll just go to my friends for hell, I don't
want to talk to what if they're weird what if
they're weirdos?
Speaker 4 (25:45):
But yeah, I guess we go with the risk. That's
a big risk. Teenage.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
So you haven't liked not the new neighbors doors, No way.
Speaker 11 (25:53):
I've met some people in the lift because I got
stuck outside.

Sue's new productivity members.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
People in work to do the training modules. I still
can't roll it. I can't roll I can't roll it out.
We were always playing for d chess with Sue. Imagine

Yes?
Speaker 4 (27:46):

Shouldn't it be like what's called fire escapes, he was
telling me, And I'm thinking of this isn't actually how
do we you must be able to leave a building
fire escape? Trying to escape a crazy listener? Why would
a fire alarm having an alarm? There was this big
do you know how loud it was? It's terrifying. Yeah,

why do you need an alarm if you're leaving the
fire exit?
Speaker 4 (28:13):
Yeah's just someone's leaving. Why do we need an.
Speaker 1 (28:15):
Alarm for that? Yeah? If you're if you're fleeing a

with then Premier Jeff Kennett, and it happened to be
right up the very top of the rialto building here
in Melbourne, which is about what nearly thirty floors anyway,

Speaker 9 (28:59):
The media conference was. I thought I'd just starting here.

locked behind me in the stairwell. So not only that
my phone, I didn't realize that my phone mobile wouldn't
work in the.
Speaker 9 (29:11):
Stairwells Oh no, it was dead.

old son, and he went out the back door and
we had an inner door that led to the kitchen
and it locked and he was stuck on the outside
of it with the one and the two year old
sitting on the floor in the kitchen. So he decided
to go down the chimney. Santa, Yes, it's exactly like Santa. However, coma.
(33:58):
He went down feet first and it was a really
old house fortunately, and yeah, he started to head down
and then could not move. He's a big boy, played
rugby to his little Yeah, anyway, he got.

The chimney a rugby player.
Speaker 13 (34:15):
Yes, exactly. He's six foot across, stand up anyway, he's
a perfect sphere. His feet were dangling over the combustion
stove and wiggling in toes, and the boys thought it
was hilarious, even though they're babies. And eventually, yeah, the
(34:36):
grease from the inside of the chimney allowed.
Speaker 1 (34:44):
For Christmas Turkey to free himself.

I haven't got to be the one that goes and
sits in the front of the hotel.

So many times. Once I even't got on the moron's bus.
Speaker 4 (35:44):
You need to live somewhere, or which didn't go home.

Ser I just don't want to be doing interview. Some
goes on the Roman, BT's on the he's in the bus.
That was bad.

I was I'm obviously a Blues fan. You said I
was fan, They're like, get off. I was almost killed.
But it was always it was always the thing in
the morning, Oh, who's going to go out to the
team hotel? You got a fine where the team's staying.
You've got to sit out the free And then there's
always the hosts back in the studio.

double decker bus with Broncos written on it. Put this
salt together homes and we've got this case closed.

Not only from the day before you did the interviews,
but yes, you normally find out pretty quick smart where
they are and they never want to talk to you.
They've they've been celebrating all night, hungover. Some of them
are still coming back into the hotel while you're standing
at the front at like five or six.
Speaker 1 (36:58):
And then you just saw some poor female journalists trying
to get interviews with the Broncos as they're just trying
to find their bank under the coach. Some thinking you
just won the big thing, right, surely someone else can
get your bags. Yere's a bit of there, what a

So far. We've had an amazing story from Lisa jab
her husband who was stuck and then decided to get
back in the house as he was locked out, that
he would go wait, wait for this, go down the chimney.
No one has ever had that thought. They're not a
(37:40):
well known passage away.
Speaker 5 (37:41):
I thought maybe break the window, fine, sticky, but not
go through the chimney.
Speaker 1 (37:46):

I just want to say I love you well. You

Speaker 3 (37:56):
Thank you you.
Speaker 2 (37:58):
I got stuck in a hotel bar.
Speaker 1 (38:00):
Oh no, wedged in there with water without water.
Speaker 4 (38:04):
The water had been trained with water.
Speaker 2 (38:08):
Mike, we're on our on our way to the Cook Islands.
So the night before my sister said, you need to relax,
I'm not a good flyer and have a bath. And
I go, okay, Well, I was a big girl back
in the day and I was having a beautiful bath.
And I went to get out and I couldn't move.
Speaker 1 (38:30):
I've got suctioned the plane in a bath.
Speaker 2 (38:36):
And my sister and I were working ourselves laughing, and
she's gone, we don't have to call the hotel staff.
Speaker 1 (38:47):
Wait, hello, how can we help you. I've have an
all good one. My sister's stuck in the bar.
Speaker 4 (38:54):
It sounds like a truck for this one again. How
did they get you out?
Speaker 2 (39:01):
Oh my gosh, Well she had to get her hands
underneath me to pull the pluck.
Speaker 1 (39:07):
And also wear that blugger is literally near the other
plug you're put plunges even closer.
Speaker 9 (39:21):
Put a towel over you, exactly.
Speaker 8 (39:23):
It's for dignity at least, I think that's gone.
Speaker 2 (39:31):
It was some water underneath me, and it caused a
bit of a tsunami in the bar.
Speaker 1 (39:44):
Oh I feel what chaos you must have caused a
nut hotel. Brilliant story though, Tris, that's an epic one. Tris,
thank you so much for making our and give us
a call with that.
Speaker 3 (39:55):
Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1 (39:58):
Sometimes your text messages, I get them like a reverse.
So sometimes people might send me a message or story
and then they might think of an extra bit of
detail and they send me another message. And sometimes I
just get the punchline without knowing what the setup is.
I've just got this text here from you, Carmen Stevens.
All I've got is sucked my bumming. Now I hope
(40:22):
to God this is a story or context before that,
or you just thought this is how I want to
speak to Christian today and to say sucked my bumming.
Speaker 4 (40:30):
This is what he wants.

But I'm hooked. I want to get part one.
Speaker 4 (40:34):
What do we think I've got the season from me?
Speaker 1 (40:35):
Yeah? Or a spa spa suction and jets are involved
and Amo being sucked in. Maybe it's a new game
on the show. You tell us how the story ended.
Actually I'm serious, and we try and work out what
God's fucked. No, not that. No, had a very big
(40:56):
email came in yesterday. It's almost like a novella. It
must have been about two thousand words and involves a
lady that met a man at the airport last week
and they got on them very well. And you know
this like this doesn't happen these days now. Dating is
all conducted swipe left, swipe right. No one has any
stories these days about how they met. Sort of a
(41:18):
favorite story. Well, ask a couple, is that had you
to me? I've never heard of boring answer to that. Anyway,
This lady hasn't been on a date in eight years
and she met a guy at the airport terminal last
week and they had a connection, some flirting happened and
numbers were not exchanged. She wants to try and track
him down. This is old school, yes, miss connections.
Speaker 5 (41:37):
And yes, there used to be a like a newspaper
that came on public transport called X.
Speaker 4 (41:42):
I don't if they had it down in Victoria, but that.
Speaker 1 (41:44):
We had and it was all stuff like you were
wearing the hat, I would say, a lady in the
powder blue trouser suits.
Speaker 4 (41:55):
The four three zero going to Coburg.
Speaker 1 (41:58):
We need to bring that back on the radio. So anyway,
this is from Lisa Christian. I need your help. I
know this sounds crazy, and trying to find someone at
Sydney Airport last or Wednesday, the first of October before
JQ five one night to Melbourne game fifty five two
ten pm. Was heading back to Melbourne. He was in
(42:19):
his early thirties. Red cap brackets backwards.
Speaker 14 (42:24):
Cool get eminem Yeah, I was thinking more Mark Wahlburgh
New Kids.
Speaker 1 (42:35):
Yeah, you don't see the baseball cap look backwards much
these days.
Speaker 4 (42:39):
No, it's going out of fashion.
Speaker 1 (42:41):
Red cap brackets backwards, dark hair, beard, tattoos on his hands,
gray trackies, businessman cream runners cream Runners with his two
little boys and his mum more brackets knitting. I'll tell
you what this lady, Lisa is very observant. She's the
detail I mean, should she'd be working for the police.
(43:03):
We chatted and laughed. I haven't said to him, you're
a good dad. I meant to give my number, even
wrote out a message to give him on the flight,
but by the time we'd landed I lost him at
the carousel. Oh, if you are red cap Dad or
no red cap Dad, please get in touch with Christian.
I know it's a long shot, but I just cannot
stop thinking about this mischance. I haven't been on a
(43:24):
date in eight years. I felt really good chance to
do him. I think there was something between us.
Speaker 4 (43:29):
Maybe there was. Yes, if you know, you know, are
you red cap backwards dad?
Speaker 5 (43:34):
And if you see anyone in Melbourne anywhere else with
a late cap, tap them on the shoulder, or.
Speaker 1 (43:39):
With his mom who's knitting with his mom all wearing
tracksuit pants?
Speaker 4 (43:43):
Cream Runners say, Lisa is looking for you, you.
Speaker 1 (43:46):
Know what I mean?
Speaker 4 (43:47):
So what do we do if you are that? We
need him to come to us. We need to you know,
we need a hotline basically.
Speaker 1 (43:53):
Oh, we need a love life the love line red
Cap Backwards thirteen fifty five twenty two.
Speaker 4 (44:00):
You just don't get a lot of this anymore, now,
do you. No, No, it's all you're right, Like you said, online.
Speaker 1 (44:04):
Dating people just don't bother to risk asking somebody out,
I guess these days, or asking for a number because
he has been a bit creepy or odd. Now. I
was talking to my daughters of the day about this
and they were like, so, God, ugh, what you're saying.
It was better when men like.
Speaker 4 (44:23):
You would just come up to someone in the bar
and ask for a phone number. When that system.
Speaker 1 (44:27):
There are lots have happily married people who met that way.
Speaker 4 (44:30):
People did meet up before phones relations. And also not
all men are creeps. There are lots of good.
Speaker 1 (44:37):
Men that met lovely women and have families now that
met asking for a phone number at work or like that.
So anyway, if you are read baseball cap backwards, dad,
you know what, I got a feeling we're going to
find this dude me too. Do you think he's one
of our listeners?
Speaker 4 (44:51):
I reckon, I think he is. He's in the target demo. Yes,
you're right.

Tattoos in the hand baseball cap backwards. He's stuck in
the eighties and nineties. He's our guy.

The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1 (45:07):
We're just talking ten minutes ago about miss connections. Christian,
I was wants to target, or should I say, recipients
of an MX misconnection. I knew it was me because
I used to wear a bright red cardigan. It turned
out to be from someone I knew. A mutual friend
told me to check it out in the paper, the Misconnections,
and there it was bright red cardigan girl was me.
(45:28):
We started dating. It didn't work out, but the excitement
of flattery was a nice change. I'd love to speak
to somebody who met through those misconnections.
Speaker 5 (45:37):
I actually had someone recently last year reach out to me.
We were at a trivia night at a pub and
someone left a card with the bar stuff saying the
guy in the white shirt, green pant.
Speaker 4 (45:48):
Blah blah blah, who was me? You're kidding? I would
like to hook up on a day with you? No way?

didn't you. Yes, yeah, it's a great move. That is, Christian,
I have an elderly client who found her husband through
a wrong number call. They spoke for hours and a
few weeks later he called again and taking him that
long to go through the numbers to find her number again.
They spoke for five years just on the phone before

(52:35):
new entry over the weekend. First one from the new
Teleswift album. Oh wow, now I've heard that album. Daughter's
a Teleswift fans, so I thought I need to get
across this. There is a track on there now, Tennis
Swift writes very smart, clever lyrics. I warned a couple
(52:56):
of months ago that her finding domestic bliss was going
to blunt her powers. You did this album sucks stinks.
I'm sorry fans, I love her, but this is a clanger.
Speaker 4 (53:09):
Wow, you're a brave man to say.
Speaker 1 (53:11):
That there is an album a track on there called wood.
I wouldn't even say double entendre single on Tondre about
her new fellas. She calls it a.
Speaker 4 (53:21):
Magic wand.
Speaker 1 (53:24):
Yeah, I actually went break read listening to It's got

Speaker 1 (53:43):
Well you know what's going on?

Speaker 1 (53:46):
Keep it to yourself. Anyway, back to the Fate of
Ophelia Taylor Swift. This comes from Joey Campanelli. Great name,
by the way, uh the favorite Felia original line saved
my heart from the fate of.
Speaker 4 (53:59):
A Felia.
Speaker 1 (54:06):
Or is it far better lyric save my heart from
Darth Vader Aphelia. Joey Campanelli is shoes. He scores top
left corner. Well done, my god, that is so good,
(54:27):
Joey great is well done, my friend. But this morning
has been won by the garden gnomes that Eddie Veder
and Pearl Jammer spotted. I also want to live in
a world where there's an Eddie Veda Garden Parl jam
Are they banned?
Speaker 4 (54:48):
No, I would be just talking about frozen.
Speaker 1 (54:51):
There must be like a the a f l ones
or this should be Decos Brothers that no one would
fall over constantly trying to get freeze.
Speaker 3 (54:59):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast In.
Speaker 1 (55:02):
The Misheard Lyrics Today, one of your misheard lyrics was
a line in a Pearl Jam song Eddie singing about
garden gnome, little Gnome. So we launched hinto conversation about gnomes.
A lot got kicked up headlines you just tuned in.
(55:23):
Alex Cullen seems to believe that was a spate of
kidnappings of people's garden nomes and then they were taken
around the world and the owners were subjected to images
of the gnomes of various landmarks of the world. Yeah, Christian,
there's a gnome vill in Southwest Australia. Massive accumulation of
(55:45):
donated gnomes.
Speaker 4 (55:47):
From Robert Wow four and a half stars on Google.
Speaker 1 (55:49):
Really, Christian, I won a gnome a few weeks back
in a raffle. It was one of the ones that
I think they sold out in record time. Actually it's
one of the bluey ones. They brought them back. Yeah, no, no,
they were available at Bunnings. People were queueing at like
six a m.
Speaker 4 (56:06):
Wow.
Speaker 1 (56:07):
My five year old was so excited. He's too good
for the garden, so he sits on the laundry shelf. Christian,
we did the fourteen month lap around Australia, bought our
gnome Jerome with us. He had his photos to all
the major landmarks Jerome and I carried him on all
of ourkes. Here he is on top of Jim Jim
face in Kakadoo. He looks very happy to be there
(56:31):
as well, because you can imagine sitting on a plane
and the next year is a garden nomes sitting next
year with its own seat. Now, good point, Shane, very good point, Christian.
There was a spay of garden nome thefts around Victoria
about thirty years ago. The thieves would place the gnomes
on football ovals, lined up against each other like a footie.
Speaker 4 (56:54):
Who knew there was so much to do with.
Speaker 1 (56:58):
Christian. I think Alex might be confused with the subplot
of the French movie Amelie. They steal garden nomes and
take photos around the world. Were getting a lot of
people texting and going now she's got confused with a movie.
And then I got this, some luke, Christian, My mum
get this her full time job. She paints garden gnomes.
Speaker 4 (57:20):
Oh what a job.
Speaker 1 (57:21):
She gets a delivery every month or two and she
has to paint them.
Speaker 4 (57:24):
Oh I guess here. You never think about how they
get painted. She's a full time nome painter. That is
a recession proof for job like that. That's great.
Speaker 3 (57:33):
The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 1 (57:36):
Pointing to Sonia Christian, I know you're moving on from
the nomes. I'm always available. The show never moves on
from talking about garden gnomes. I'm sory if you thought
that I sounded a bit rushed earlier.
Speaker 4 (57:50):
Should have made that clear.
Speaker 1 (57:51):
I'm really I fairl really bad. Actually, note to self,
never sound tardy when talk about garden names on the air.
But my son Deacon is in the car right now
and he's had a good idea expanding on your radio
gnome is that you get a nome made for each
show team member.
Speaker 4 (58:06):
I like it.
Speaker 1 (58:07):
This is a great idea, Christian. You go on, Patsy, Rio,
Alex and Christian. Maybe throw Kate into there too, Young
Tacon realize this an afterthought. That is a great idea.

makes garden names, who.
