Good morning, Good morning, Rio, Good morning. Before we get

Speaker 4 (00:41):
I have a King's birthday long weekend tennis tournament.
Speaker 1 (00:44):
Oh wow, God, so boring. Oh my god, it's cool.
Pho Oh, chaps, what say we gather another? Really don't

rather all the chaps down the club are you? How

Speaker 5 (01:06):
It is a lawn tennis tournament, so yes, will be fancy.
Speaker 1 (01:09):
Why do you think I'm a fancy pom than me?
Speaker 5 (01:14):
It's in doubles and it's knockout as well.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
Gosh, so much dry not there.
Speaker 4 (01:22):
There's a lot of tension I've got. I've made a
new tennis friend. It's someone I played against and now
we're friends.
Speaker 5 (01:27):
Isn't that cute?
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Wow? This one.
Speaker 6 (01:30):
We're really excited. We're going up to Milliwa, to the
wine region, Lance Moore, and I'm very honestly Lance.
Speaker 1 (01:37):
More lovely ones too. That's a beautiful place.
Speaker 6 (01:40):
I tell you how excited I am. We realize the
other night we actually haven't left city limits since Christmas.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Oh wow, so overd you break?
Speaker 6 (01:48):
Ye're really looking forward to it? What about yourself?
Speaker 1 (01:51):
Well, tomorrow, Sarah and I am celebrating seven years of
the show. We're having if you ask me, I prefer
a long lunch to didn't agree. It's just the best
long lunch. So a long lunch and then on Monday.
I am a des fan. I've been every year since
More God the King's Birthday game. What's looking forward to it?
(02:11):
Two games ago? But if you saw the D's hopefully
didn't see the dcit smash by wait for Saints, then
now you know I'm not. I'm not looking forward to game,
but I'm looking forward to the occasion because actually what
Neil Danaher has done the money that Mayn has raised.
I think he was raised. He's one of the most
incredible human beings in the world. So obviously we celebrated
seven years of the show on Wednesday. So the first
(02:34):
King's Birthday I went to I'd only been on air
a couple of days. Hamis McLaughlin was working for the
first year on the show as our kind of footy correspondent.
He was initiating me into the great game, and he
did a great jowe with a lovely guy. He said, look,
come along and as you said to Neil Dan to her,
you know you should really find out about this guy.
So I met now Neil twenty eighteen on King's Birthday,
(02:54):
and I met his beautiful daughter Beck as well. What
was incredible. So for the next couple of hours I
kept seeing Neil walking around everywhere, being with people non stop.
I was exhausted, simply because we've done a breakfast show
that day. Nil's incredible, unrelating energy was unbelievable. I couldn't believe
the energy of the man. Man. Oh incredible, and I
(03:16):
really hope one day they find a cure. If they will,
it would because because actually the money that that charities
raised and Nil's raised, and their whole team there has
actually is pioneering the research. No one does it more
around the world than Melbourne. It's all been driven out here.
I really hope they find a cure one day, and
it because of what Neil Danna has done. I mean,
what a legacy that man already had in an amazing career.
(03:38):
But then to get that diagnosis and to have a
choice about how's he going to be? I don't know
if I would Who knows if anything tested like that,
how you would respond? But is an incredible man Neil Donah.
Speaker 5 (03:50):
Yeah, I don't think I would like that. And it's
just insane.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
Yeah, And so Big Freeze is good fun. It's such
an institution now, isn't it. If were going down the
side and that, it's a really good day. So I'm
looking forward to that. You actually need to be someone
well known. They don't sound random Christian. One of the
facts said, too many at lunch took a wrong turning,
so and next thing he's going down a slide already.
Speaker 6 (04:15):
Got he picked out. You could go as Bruce Springsteen.
Speaker 1 (04:18):
Has anyone done that in the ten or eleven.
Speaker 6 (04:21):
Years Donny Mercury.
Speaker 5 (04:23):
Yeah, I don't think of Bruce.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
I tell you who did one of the best ones.
I think the last year was Eric Banners. What was that?
He can't remember what he did, but I all remember
he was very funny. He made a joke about nuts
and that is all you need to win this fifty
two year old child over all Right, this play a song.
When we come back, we get into this week's Double Thumbs.
Speaker 3 (04:43):
Up Christian O'Connell show go on podcast.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
It's the Christian O'Connell show. Were doing Double thumbs Up
now every Friday we go around the team that's me,
Rio and Pat to talk about the things that we're
enjoying this week. So if you're looking for a new
TV shows, documentaries or movies, listen up. We've got some recommendations.
All right, couple from me finished watching Manhunts, Oh God
for Bin Larden. This is a three part document mentory.
(05:09):
I was slightly cautious about watching it because I thought
would be a very gung ho thank you America for sale.
It's not that at all. It's an incredibly well made
and what really makes it brilliant and original is it's
footage with all the CIA insiders who spent over ten years,
you know, two different decades, had spanned over painstakingly researching
(05:31):
and never ever giving up, hoping that one day justice
would be served on Bin Larden and it happened. And
they've even got interviews with Rob Wilson, who was the
swat guy, who the Navy seal that shot beIN Larden,
and what a great storyteller he is. It is gripping
stuff and actually at the end it's actually quite a
sad ending. You know, they talk about, yes, justice was served,
(05:54):
but at what costs? So many people lost their lives.
It's actually quite sad at times. It mind me, of
all the terrorist attacks we had in London, the London
terrorist attacks in two thousands and all the people that
lost their lives there. So it's actually quite sat times.
But it's a moment in our history and it is
so well made. The ending is actually very moving, isn't it.
Speaker 4 (06:12):
And it's thrilling, like it is a documentary with no
narrator and my part, you know, how it ends.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
The last episode is actually is the twenty two minutes.
That's what it was from when they started repelling down
to helicopters and Toll. They shot him as twenty two
minutes and you're watching it and you've got goosebumps, you
can't be breathe.
Speaker 5 (06:30):
Yes, I.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Didn't realize one of the Blackhawks crashed, yes, yeah, yeah,
kidding no, and they just carried on. Yes, this improvised
and so much chaos happened that they just have to
deal with that. We didn't know. Yeah, it's on Netflix.
It's called Manhunt. Can't recommend that enough. Another thing that's
on a completely different thing is a new Own Wilson
comedy called Stix. It's a golf comedy. I've seen the
(06:54):
whole season. It's just started this week. It is very
fun it's a TV shirt, yeah, for our episodes. I
love Own Wilson. I wish him and Vince More would
do more movies together. Yes, Whending crashes, I was hoping
it was going to be a series of movies with differences,
because I thought those two were just gold to the
other cinemat to God, they're so good. Own Wilson. Here
it's back in a comedy shirt. It's very funny. He's
a washed out golf instructor and he finds some young prodigie.
(07:17):
It's really funny. Sticks is very good. That's on Apple TV. Rhea,
what are you enjoying?
Speaker 4 (07:23):
I watched the Australian story on Monday night for Ange
posta Cooglo.
Speaker 1 (07:27):
I've got that saved, as we used to say back
in the day, got it on my VHS tape. So
watch over the weekend.
Speaker 5 (07:32):
I urge you to watch it.
Speaker 4 (07:33):
It'll make you proud to be Australian because what he's achieved,
and it's.
Speaker 1 (07:37):
Flown under the radar, hardest league in the world with
one of the worst team of chokers as well, Tottenham.
Speaker 4 (07:42):
Yes, such a long history, haven't won a European trophy
in forty years. He takes them over. This's never been
an Australian coach in the EPL.
Speaker 5 (07:50):
Takes them over.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
And they are doing terribly last year there almost bottom
of the table, almost being relegated.
Speaker 5 (07:56):
He's a laughing stock.
Speaker 4 (07:58):
And then he says in the bottom of their bottom
he says, I always win a trophy in my second
year and he's he did it.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
It's an amazing story. You should be and Andre is
an incredible character as well. And that is the hardest,
most brutal league in the in the world. The epl
the richest one, but the hardest one. He's had a
really tough two years. Plus there's no guarantee that he
doesn't get fired in the next week.
Speaker 5 (08:21):
Yes, he still might get fun Daniel Levy.
Speaker 1 (08:23):
Has fired so many managers are they just it's brutal
And is a great guy. He's got a lot of
dignity and integrity as well. Even if he does get
fired as well, he'll go into another top job in Europe.
Tell you what those lads play for. Ang is very
very clear and he's brilliant the press conferences, he's like
a crumpy old man. Yes, the poor guy should put
(08:43):
up with these relentless dumb questions from UK sports.
Speaker 4 (08:47):
Yeah, he doesn't suffer any fool It's from Pyne, you know,
grew up in Yeah really Yeah.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
All right, so it's a good watch.
Speaker 4 (08:53):
Yeah, it's a great watch, really moving and a story
that just doesn't get told on him.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
All right, We're going to take a break and then
we'll come up with Patsy's Double thumbs Up.
Speaker 3 (09:00):

the stage, you know, bringing them on like a full
produced performance of just announcing.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
They do this. All the TV networks do it twice.
Is called the Upfronts, so all the stars will present
to advertisers what the big shows are. I didn't realize
anyone would actually want to see that.
Speaker 6 (10:04):
It's crazy.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Hard to sound Manhunt? Did you shoot him?
Speaker 6 (10:14):
Build up to our favorite show? So Stranger Things very
very late to the party because Audrey was a very
young teen when Strange or even younger. When Stranger Things started,
we knew that she would like it. She's just started
watching it. Chris had blitzed it, my husband had blitzed it,
but so I hadn't seen it. So we're watching it together.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
It's a great show. First, it's really good. You love it,
love it? Yeah, and it's a good story.
Speaker 6 (10:41):

red graphics and it's like this about it. I love it.

me this.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
By the way, you were talking about the new season.
It's huge, right is it good? Yeah?
Speaker 6 (12:14):
But it's a bit controversial.
Speaker 5 (12:16):
Well I can't.
Speaker 6 (12:16):
I don't know if I can say because it's a
family friendly show, but there's a certain scene with Aiden
that has like forums up in.
Speaker 5 (12:28):
Sex and the City.
Speaker 6 (12:31):
It's a little bit racy, which is why we love
this series so much.
Speaker 1 (12:35):
Editionary on TV is it? I must look away right
now for Shy he.
Speaker 6 (12:46):
Does something that's a bit rank. But anyway, the podcast.

Speaker 6 (13:00):

The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
This is amazing soccer the world so exciting it is.
It's incredible. So you're going, yeah, well with a tiny asterisk,
yeah we're going. We're going because you've got to play
Saudi Arabia next Wednesday night. Yes, and this is just
a mere walk through. However, is sport anything can happen.
You have a ten goals over them. Yes, so if
(13:44):
they get ten or more goals, you don't go to
the World Cup next year.
Speaker 5 (13:49):
Yeah, we just need to not completely ruin everything.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
It was an amazing goal actually, and also the ital
the scorer hasn't scored an international goal in like years,
what a moment. I think it's twenty twelve was the
last goal he scored for Soccarus and he got it carrier. Well,
that's a lovely term. By riding by Gray the cut
back that churry got here. There's bitch, they've got it.
(14:19):
The noise is amazing.
Speaker 5 (14:20):
Yeah, why about Chills the Bitch.
Speaker 1 (14:28):
Thirteen years twenty twelve to the World Cup in twenty
twenty six. What a story. Yeah, it made such great news.
Speaker 5 (14:36):
Most people wouldn't have seen it.
Speaker 4 (14:37):
If you're up now, you probably wouldn't have stayed up
for it because it was on at Perth.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
I think also most people didn't realize that the SOCC
crews are playing last night and it really was a
must win game. Japan had already qualified so they were
already going through. It's amazing socck crews are going to
World Cup.
Speaker 4 (14:50):
Yeah, especially for Australia, like we you know, we went
a very long time never making it into a World Cup.
So when we actually get there, I still get. It's
such a massive feeling to be there.
Speaker 1 (15:01):
You know, seen in England underperform well forever. Actually, every
single World Cup I've seen is still like it's it's
the biggest sports tournament in the world. Yes, he's just
got to be there. You just need your team to
be there. It's a festival a sport. The World Cup
is like nothing else on earth. It's an incredible show.
The fact that you're going to be there is amazing news.
And actually next years so it's America, Canada and Mexico,
(15:25):
isn't it. I really would love to take the show there.
I'd love to be there following the soccer rus. It's
an amazing result. The other thing I noticed as well
is that I love it when players kick a goal.
They do this some footy as well, in anfl You know,
when they're so sure that it went in they don't
even check. Oh, yes, he started running right. He knows
(15:46):
that even though I think he's a left footed player
and he scored off his right foot, but he must
have known that he made good enough contact. This is
going in. He turns and starts running, and I see him.
He starts then thinking has gone in by the way.
Then he sees all his teammates running at him and
the crowd goo berserk. Then he looks back to check, Oh,
that did go in. You've got to watch it. It's
a great moment.
Speaker 3 (16:06):

name game, and we spoke to a guy. I think
his clue was tried fruit. This guy is called Danny Sultana.
What so distinctive? So distinctive, you know, if you know
Danny Sultana, you remember that name. Okay, So today I'm
curious to know, do we have any other listeners or
(21:25):
maybe you've worked with people who have a fruit for surname.
Do we think there's more fruity surnames out there? I
remember the other week we were looking for fish people,
and I remember we got I think we did it
for three days because there were so many coming in.
We couldn't move on. Where we did surnames that were
food and drinks. We had someone I think we spoke
to Billy Hamburger. Of course there's one that remained. I
(21:47):
think that was a little last year. Who could forget
Billy Hamburger? So we start with Danny Sultana. Anyone with
a fruit surname please call the show thirteen fifty five

(23:47):
this Wednesday already. We've had some great entries. Now. The
number one rule to remember this. You might think, O God,
christ I the terrible voice doesn't matter. This is not
a talent or really a singing competition. However, strong start.
Speaker 3 (23:59):
Ecs me go it and me's the one to save me.
Speaker 1 (24:09):
And after.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
I'm the biggest fan of the moll.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
First entry there from and then there was Michelle really showcasing.
It's true, this is not a talent competition. Start a
shower coming and cold, isn't it the sky? You need
you to put your feet out of there.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
Shower and supernorm into the sky.
Speaker 1 (24:39):
New entry here from Andrea Christian. Since hearing about this competition,
instead of working, I put all my time and effort
into making this parody of my all time favorite song
songword by Oasis. This is the song talking to the
sound yesterday to Past. This isn't Andrew, by the way,
(25:00):
for bloody Hell. I found the winner three days into
her She's knocking out the park. Christian. If you did
play it, maybe don't say the part what I haven't
been working in my name? Oh Andrew is not really
her name. I don't know why I make mistakes on
this because I'm bread stuffed. William, like everyone else, will
be answered and this would make my dream not need
(25:21):
to see Oasis at the iconic Wendley Stadium, also allow
me to hop on a plane to the UK. It's
been the top of my one day travelers since I
can remember. It has taken me four hours to write, rewrite,
and record six versions of this six versions. I'm turning
it out. This is more than a waste is put
to any of their songs. So, Andrea, this is brilliant,
really really love this. Okay, let's hear her version of
(25:43):
Oasis songbird.
Speaker 7 (25:45):
Talking to Me through my Radio Leans. My cycis halfway
through a bra swearing at the crowd, calling Nola troll.

Speaker 3 (41:28):
Christian O'Connell show go on podcast.
Speaker 1 (41:32):
Last weekend saw my eighteen year old daughter. She left
time a couple of months ago. She came back. I
made her lunch, and she knows that I love questions.
I have a huge ongoing It must be about over
three hundred questions on a big ongoing document I have
on my Google dogs. I never knew. Oh my god,
yeah's love questions, right if I over here When I
(41:52):
read one in any magazine interview, I added to the list.
There seriously must be about three hundred. She goes to,
how I've got three questions for you. So we spend
the next two hours answering these questions, just through them,
because you know some since when someone asks a great question,
you tell a story about that, you answer it, but
actually in their so many more things come out of it.
It expands. And I was asking her the question. Then
(42:14):
we would talk about her answer. So during the next
twenty minutes, if we've got time, I'm going to go
through these questions. The great first one she asked me,
what's a moment in your life you'd love to go
back to. You can't alter it, but you can just
go back to it and re experience it. And I said,
a straight away can tell you what it is. And
it's nineteen ninety six. I'm twenty three. I've just moved
to London, broke up with a girlfriend that'd have for
(42:35):
two years. I thought I was going to marry. I
didn't know anyone in London. I moved to this amazing city.
But if you don't know anyone, London is a really big,
lonely city. I don't know anyone there. However, I have
two dreams. One I want to get into radio or
I want to be a standup comedian. On a Wednesday
night in nineteen ninety six, in September, I was doing
when I first moved to London, I was doing a
sales job I didn't really enjoy. It was teddy sales.
(42:57):
You're there with a headset all day, cold calling people.
Do you want to take out some advertising? And I
photography vaccine, no hang up, but it was commissioned only.
This job the best training you could ever do for
doing what I do now. You had to build instant
rapport with people. So all day long I'd be trying
to entertain people and keep them talking on the phone
so they may take an advert out and I might
be able to pay rent and get my beer money. Anyway,
(43:19):
my dream was during the day I had this dead
end job that wasn't really enjoying, and I would go
and do what called open mic nights. This is where
in comedy clubs around London. This is the same all
over the world. You put your name down a piece
of paper, you get called up, you do five minutes,
You get your five minutes, okay. So on a Wednesday
night in September nineteen ninety six, there was a open
mic night of the year. It was like a big
competition and at the end of the open mic night,
about twenty five wanna bee comedians and I was one
(43:40):
of them. They're going through, they read out everyone's name
and the crowd go eh boom, brutal reckon. But you know,
only twenty three is it. I haven't really got anything
in my life. I can't be crushed anymore. And you're
also it's like anything in life. You want to be comedian,
you want to be on the radio, you're a new pilot,
you just got to You've got to get your stage time,
you gotta build at your MR. So I didn't really
bother me whether I want or loss. Anyway, I won, well,
(44:03):
what I got was fifty bucks. That fifty bucks I
didn't spend for two years, and so I was quite broken.
Didn't need to spend it, and I was devastated. I
pinned it up on this tiny little bedroom I had,
in this miserable little bedsit I had in London. I
won fifty bucks and I remember couldn't sleep that night.
I was so excited. I thought, just maybe this dreamer
might be able to happen. And also as another part
(44:25):
of the price, I got to open for a professional
comedian that weekend, that comedian Sean Locke.
Speaker 5 (44:30):
Oh you're kidding.
Speaker 1 (44:31):
I opened for Sewan Lot. This is in nineteen ninety six,
before Seawn Lot became a really really big star. But
for comedians in the nineties, Sean Locke was like he
was the comedians comedian. Everyone knew who Sean was. It
was a very very different stand up, and we're talking
fifteen odd years before he became known for what a
great comedian was with eight out ten Cats with Jimmy
car But yeah, this was in ninety six. I opened
(44:52):
for Sean Incredible, got to know him, and then about
six years later he became a regular on My breakfast show.
And I said, you remember we met before I opened
for you at the Cosmic Comedy Club. I got fifty bucks.
That fifty bucks is the best amount of money I've
ever been given in my whole life. I could desperately
go back now. I remember just I remember I was
just walking home at two an hour and a half
(45:12):
rather get the underground because I was just so happy.
I was just basking in this glow of light. Wow,
I actually got given money for jokes. I wanted one day,
you could I actually get a living out of jokes,
you know. So, yeah, that's when I go back to
September nineteen ninety six. Yet the Cosmic Gooday Club. We're
in that fifty bucks all right? Coming on next Then
I'm gonna ask Pats and Rio what's a moment in
(45:34):
their life they go back to, you can't alter it.
Why don't you also give me your answers Week.
Speaker 3 (45:39):

nineteen ninety six and me and winning fifty bucks, the
(46:20):
greatest amount of money I've ever received in my life.
I wish I could still have that fifty buck note
that I had pinned up for two years before. I
need to actually break it, so I didn't have any money. Rio.
What's it for you? Where are we going?
Speaker 4 (46:31):
We're going back to twenty ten. It was my first
year out of high school. I was seventeen years old.

dollars fifty and everything it used.
Speaker 1 (46:44):
To be for cash back in the day, didn't it.
You're right, my first jobs.
Speaker 5 (46:47):
Cash, no paper, trailer for anything back o the day.
Had never been on a holiday.
Speaker 4 (46:51):
So to buy myself and me and my mate Alex
and Sophie, we'd saved up throughout the year to just
try to buy some old crappy van that we could
maybe do a road trip in.
Speaker 5 (47:03):
It was our dream.
Speaker 4 (47:04):
Alex was a lot more handy than me, so he
had the skills to turn and a van into like
a caravan, and we finally saved up enough money we
bought this absolute crass box.
Speaker 1 (47:17):
We've all owned one of those. Yeah, In fact, we
should on Monday Show. What was these shipbox you owned?
Anyone should own a shipbox? Yeah.
Speaker 5 (47:23):
We called it Walter and I don't know how.
Speaker 4 (47:27):
I don't know how Old Wally got his roadworthy certificate.
Because when you would just hold the steering wheels straight,
it would veer to the left. So if you wanted
the car to go straight, you had to actually turn
it to the right.
Speaker 5 (47:39):
And hold it in a fixed position.
Speaker 4 (47:41):
And we had visions of going all the way down
to Melbourne from Sydney Pyramid Rock Music Festival, and we
had this old crappy event and I still remember the
day Alex pulled that vent up into the driveway and
we're about to leave, and at the I just wish
I could go back and shake myself and go treasure
this moment. Yeah, you know, no time, it was Uni holidays.
(48:03):
I've got all the time in the world, no appointments.
Speaker 1 (48:05):
You know, you didn't realize at the time, actually, but
those moments are precious. You don't know what you're in
at the time. Do you think would it always be
like this?
Speaker 4 (48:12):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (48:12):
And then later on it like, no spoiler, it isn't
all of that.
Speaker 4 (48:15):
It's true freedom. We had no money, but we had
absolute freedom nowhere to.
Speaker 1 (48:20):
Be some of those happiest memories. So when you don't
have money. When I won that fifty bucks, I was
flat broke, so in debt, but that fifty bucks meant
everything to me. It was that gonna be given a
golden ticket. It was like wanker money.
Speaker 5 (48:31):
Yes, literally, we couldn't believe we have I mean it
was a six hundred dollars come.
Speaker 1 (48:35):
We're like, we've got our own vent. What you had
was freedom exactly, and then he wrote, so where did
you go then? So he left Sydney. Did you make it? Yeah?
Speaker 5 (48:42):
We drove down Christmas night to go to the Boxing Day.
Speaker 1 (48:45):
Test, kidding what an epic road tree. It was.
Speaker 4 (48:48):
Sick we had, we smuggled with syringes. We piped vodka
into our watermelons into the test match. Then we went
on to Pyramid Rock Music Festival, and then we literally
had three or four weeks just cruising down the Great
Ocean Road coming back, like working our way back up
the beaches.
Speaker 5 (49:08):
It was, you know, and with your two best friends
in the world, like just.
Speaker 1 (49:11):
Best of times, aren't they. You've got photos? Yes, we're
actually Alex so lucky because I regret now no photos
were I know we moan about smartphones. They weren't. There
were no smartphones.
Speaker 5 (49:21):
We've actually got physical printed photos.
Speaker 4 (49:23):
So Alex had an old on those old timey cameras
and they're still my most treasured photo.
Speaker 1 (49:29):
They've won old timey at the time cameras and roadshow.
This is from the turn of two thousand and nine.
It's an instant camera. Do you know what I bought
over the weekend. What a polaroid camera. Yeah that prints
out immediately. Yes, I'm going to bring it in on
the show. And I've decided that once a week for
the next twelve months, I'm going to take photos of
(49:51):
that day show. I got like an actual physical reminder
because I certain you have all these photos, but they
live on your phone, yeah, and you never go back
to them, never go back to them, and they're just
on your phone. I wanted like the old days of
like an actual tangible photoe. You look at it, and
I don't know you the the way you look at
it is different than I think because the phone, because
it's instant. It's amazing. I've got some beautiful photos are
(50:14):
on my phone, but they're just too disposable because you know,
you can take two hundred more today. It doesn't have
the same meaning as those old you know, photo albums.
When you get a photo album out right, you sit down,
you rush through photo albums. Now you go swipe, swipe, swipe,
and then all you do is zooming on his face, going,
oh my god. Photo albums. You sit down and you
(50:34):
you turn it over and you you start there like
it it's like a doorway into a story of your
own life, isn't he go my god, oh my, what
was I wearing then? Or look at my now is
no longer with us, but oh my gosh, you look
so happy there.
Speaker 4 (50:47):
My dad actually still has a slide projector and we
used to have slide nights where we'd go and sit
in the lounge room and put up the projector and
we'd go through.
Speaker 5 (50:54):
You know, all these old slides that you have. Oh,
I haven't done that in so long.
Speaker 1 (50:56):
You love to next time you go back, get the
old man, get to leave to get the slidehot. At
the time, as kids were, oh god, by which now?
But you killed then? We're gonna ask Patsy in it
and you answer that this as well. What's the moment
in your life you'd love to go back to? You
can't alter it? Where are we going?
Speaker 3 (51:14):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1 (51:18):
Christian, I loved hearing about your Sean Locke story. I
loved him on Out of ten Cats, no one made
Jimmy car laugh harder than Sean Locke. It's true. I
always want to know that if I ran into you,
I'd ask about the time you were on Sean's team
on eighth ten Cats. I was first series of eight
or ten Cats. I was on Sean's team because we've
known each other for years, and there was a woman
(51:39):
on her team as well, and she was like a
kind of reality style and I remember the filming went
off about two hours, right, There was quite a long
sort of filming, and I remember the first half an
hour our politeness. I kept laughing at this woman's sort
of comments. They weren't that funny, and then Sew just
sort of whispers to me, stop doing that. Make them
work harder for the for the for the laugh, Okay,
(52:00):
otherwise she's going to lower everything on this team. And
I was like, okay, sorry, sure, stop doing that. Stop
doing that, make the work harder. He shouldn't get laughs
like that. You have to earn your laughs on this show.
All right, Patsy, what's the moment in time you're going
back to them? You know what?
Speaker 6 (52:15):
I would love to go back to our wedding day
and when I walked down the aisle and saw Chris
for the first time, because you know, it was.
Speaker 1 (52:23):
Well not the first time you'd obviously met before, wasn't itbe?
Speaker 6 (52:25):
You know, last There's so much built up to your
wedding day?
Speaker 1 (52:29):
What year is this?
Speaker 6 (52:30):
So March nineteen ninety nine, March sixth, nineteen ninety nine
at Williamstown Uniting Church, beautiful old, two hundred year old church.
And you know there's that anticipation and you see videos
of it now on social media where the groom turns
around and is balling because she just looks exquisite and
Chris did not turn around to look at me. And
(52:51):
this is not an argument, but this is a debate
we still have nearly thirty years later.
Speaker 1 (52:55):
Quite often he is up there all talking it.
Speaker 6 (52:58):
He's just not looking back. He's having a joke with
his brother who was his best man. They're laughing, and
I thinking, what are you looking at me?
Speaker 5 (53:05):
What's going on?
Speaker 1 (53:06):
Don't you think that's so christen away? Because is it cool? Customers?
Speaker 6 (53:09):
It was ridiculous.
Speaker 5 (53:10):
I want to chuckle.
Speaker 6 (53:11):
Yeah, I said it was whispering to my dad. Why
is he not looking around?
Speaker 1 (53:19):
Dad?
Speaker 6 (53:19):
What's going on? And we still have this debate?
Speaker 1 (53:23):
I bet you do. That's incredible.
Speaker 6 (53:25):
I've never known that still have this debate.
Speaker 1 (53:27):
And so I still when we're looking around at my one,
oh yeah, when she was coming down the is it's jeers,
I always can remember.
Speaker 6 (53:35):
This, yes, And I say to him, now, why just
tell me? Why did I know we can't take the
time back? But what was your thinking? And he said,
because no, But it's justified because he said, I wanted
to see you for the first time when you were
standing beside me as my you know, as husband and wife.
She said, I didn't want to spoil it. I wanted
(53:56):
you to be right by my side and hold your hand.
And I think, oh, okay, that's that's.
Speaker 1 (54:01):
All right, thing, all right. Then over this long weekend,
send me an email with your answer to the question.
Then some moment in your life you'd love to go
back to. You can't alter it anyway, But you're what's
talking about hearing your stories as well as Sometimes when
Tom tells your story from the past, they just tell
you the story. It's like they're not actually they're not
in the story. You know, it's something they told a
(54:21):
few times, so it's almost like it's at arms distance.
What's lovely though, sometimes when you tell a story and
you really slow down your pause, you actually go back
into the story. You live the story and so and
the details matter. You know, you could have talked about
the wedding and like our wedding day, and like, you know,
it's an imagine moment. The fact that Kris didn't look round,
you know, and then we're all judging him. And then
(54:43):
when you say why he didn't look around, it's even
more beautiful. Patsy, It's almost like we're at your wedding,
but I can feel it.
Speaker 6 (54:50):
It was such a big wedding if.
Speaker 1 (54:52):
You got married. Now you're not inviting me. You threaten

the flagpole. And that's very funny. Right now there's a
