Speaker 2 (00:18):
Got anything good?

Speaker 3 (00:19):
Hey, this is the Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 1 (00:27):
Good morning, pats Morning, Good morning, do you Sirio? Alex Culling,
Good morning, Good morning. So yesterday morning, at the start
of the show, I mentioned how I'd seen on the
way into this radio station someone had written in chalk
on the wall, be the best part of somebody else's day,
And yesterday I think it had an impact on the show.
I think on some level it weave some kind of magic. Yes,

(00:50):
So I want to try just keep this going. Okay,
So today I've asked Patsy to find a morning mantra
that could set up our day. Right. Perhaps, what have
you got mate?

Speaker 2 (00:59):
This is it today? Be the reason someone smiles today?
I think it is. When we're so busy rushing et
a bit, you know, kicking off life's check least, it's
hard to get in your head and not notice the
world around you. If you're out walking the dog today,
look someone in the eye and say hello, good day.

(01:19):
Isn't it a lovely day? Costs nothing? And you know what.
You don't know what that other person's going through. That
might just make their day to have a friendly face
and a friendly conversation.

Speaker 1 (01:30):
Yeah, you're right. It doesn't take more than a couple
of seconds sometimes to have a really nice exchange with somebody. Yeah,
even a hallo nice day or cold this morning. Even
in that couple of seconds, you're just saying to somebody,
I see you, you matter. That's it. You both leave
energize from a small encounter that you don't need to
have a big, hour long chat with somebody. Sometimes even if.

Speaker 4 (01:51):
You're just walking past someone, you know, walking around a
park or something like that, and you get there, even
if you don't say anything, you just do a little.

Speaker 5 (01:56):
Nod and not in that it's not that and you go, hey,
I see you man.

Speaker 1 (02:01):
What about doing this the old two fingers? Yeah? What
about the shoot to McGavin pistols to somebody that's aggressive?

Speaker 6 (02:10):
Okay, you're right.

Speaker 1 (02:10):
Actually, maybe this day and age, someone's getting a corn
triple zero. There's a guy of the dog Park pretenders.
They'll be popping people's I think he's on the radio.
Have you a mad time at the moment? With the
ratings out this week. It's not dropping very well. He's
wearing his firing pistols. Yes, he's firing air pistols off
into the air. Patsy, just repeat that today's morning match again.

Speaker 2 (02:31):
Be the reason someone smiles today.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
Yeah, I love that one, Patsy. That's really nice. I
tell you what made me smile yesterday my eldest daughter,
Ruby's twenty one. She couldn't make it back home on
Sunday for Father's Day. So we met up last night
and we had a kind of late Father's Day dinner.
It was even better in a way, brilliant because Lois,
my younger daughter, saw her Sunday I got to Father's Day. Yeah.

(02:55):
And then when the restaurant were like, are you celebrating something,
I'm like, it's Father's Day. They give us a free
round of drinks. Were like, this is so nice because
you're not meet up Sunday, I went parish, you couldn't
be doing an And then because my I mentioned this
the other week, she's moved into a new place right

(03:16):
and she's been doing quite a bit of DIY so
she said, you know, I offered to come around. She
was not, I want to know how to do this stuff.
And so yesterday I presented to her. We went to
Leonardo's she you know, the great pizza place. It's only
about ten minutes away she is now. And so during
our dinner together over pizzas, I gave her and this
is a moment in any young girl's life, her first

(03:36):
adjustable socket set. Oh wow, yeah, yeah, yes, yeah, excuse me,
way to get us to get a photo of us together,
just to mark this polaroid moment.

Speaker 2 (03:48):
What do you use a socket for?

Speaker 1 (03:50):
While she's doing flat pack? So, yeah, it's got the
hex Q, it's got the hex adjustable X ones and
also the the the Phillips and the flathead as well.
So it's a whole load of adjustabent, a whole kit.
Yeah something you are about that to THEE HOWND isn't
here the socket?

Speaker 6 (04:05):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (04:06):
I love that. You're right and it's a please sensation.
Noise Is also gave her. She's got the answer woken up.
You know when the season has changed. You love a
very first. I also gave us some w D forty
because every home needs a w D forty, right. I
gave us some ant rid, the little stuff you can

(04:27):
use indoors and a multi socket board as well. You
need always helpful, always help So this this pacey yesterday
did the thing you know all restaurants do this. We
got there at six o'clock and so it was like
to starting to fill up. Why do restaurants always cram
you on top of each other? Yes, so there's there's
empty tables over there. There was clearly a couple on

(04:48):
a second or third day. We're crammed next to them,
and they don't want to be too aware of us.
We really don't want to be too aware of them.
Then suddenly there's a dad handing over a series of
bizarre objects to his daughter. The socket set, a multi
point outridden. At one point I had in a one
of those little food baggs you don't see through food bags. Yeah, yeah,

(05:10):
a whole load of herbal mugwort tea. It looked like
it was a bag of weed. I know what you
want to let's just see. You want to get your
socket on, you want some ants stuff, and you want
a bag of weed. Dad's got it all. Happy Father's Day.
Dad of the Year.

Speaker 3 (05:28):
The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

Speaker 1 (05:31):
You've gotta be honest. I feel a bit sick this morning.
Oh So last night we had these pizzas and I
said to my daughter, you pick, let's have a drink.
What do you pick for us? She goes, oh, let's
get a Pina Kanada Tuesday. I mean when you're twenty
one year a student, sure fifty two going to get
up at four the next morning Peanu Canada and tuesd night.

(05:51):
So I was like, absolutely, Peinada and a pizza. My guy,
heavy day, I didn't sleep.

Speaker 5 (05:58):
Well, what's a coconut creamy.

Speaker 1 (06:01):
And pineapple and my tom Tom? And then she pizza,
make a big ass pizza.

Speaker 2 (06:06):
Oh maybe a Hawaiian pizza. It would match.

Speaker 5 (06:10):
What pizza did you get?

Speaker 1 (06:11):
I got a.

Speaker 7 (06:13):
That.

Speaker 1 (06:13):
The pizzas that Leonardo's are incredible, right this institution, that
place I got, they do this really nice pepperoni one,
but I got it with pineapple on top.

Speaker 4 (06:21):
Oh, like you just sort of like added this between
that and a Hawaiian that's.

Speaker 5 (06:28):
For different meats.

Speaker 1 (06:29):
Yeah, but so what the meat and meat?

Speaker 5 (06:31):
You would have offended them at leone.

Speaker 1 (06:33):
Because when I old that, the guy went said, do
you want a Hawaiian I went no, no, no, I want
a pepperoni pizza with pineapple on top. And he went right,
and he was a hipster with a stupid mustache. I
didn't want to bring that up and went, I ain't
going to be judged by you, hitler. Okay, he I
said to him. He goes so Hawaiian. I went, no,

(06:54):
that's ham. Take out the ham a pepperoni. You got
a pepperoni and pineapple pizza.

Speaker 5 (06:59):
There's serious pizza.

Speaker 1 (07:00):
It's available. If it's got like options you want to
add on, then why have it there? And then shame
me in front of my daughter. We're having a bonding
experience over adjustable sockets.

Speaker 4 (07:10):
I think you may be supposed to add a bit
of chili flags anchovies at best, but I don't think
you're supposed to go rogue and chuck pineapple on their
traditional pepperoni pizza.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
Leveling it up the best part of somebody else's pizza day.

Speaker 5 (07:25):
You're boging up that pizza.

Speaker 1 (07:28):
I'll tell you what I mvy bogans. They're happy people.
They're not self conscious. They want to put pineapple on
top of any pizza, anchovies, whatever it is, they go
for it. They love life. They tasted amazing. Okay, you
had the peppery sensation of the pepperoni. Oh my god,
is there a party in my mouth? Right now? That's right?
Do you know who got invited? Pineapple, which always brings

(07:49):
it citrus tang, but sing out that pepper Yeah, shut
that down, cheers with a pina colada. It's like a
cement mixer in my stomach. And then she went to wait,
since two am, we go the gym or something there
can burn this off. How was your day yesterday, Patsy?

(08:10):
What did you get up to?

Speaker 2 (08:11):
Had a great day yesterday? What did I get up
to yesterday? Chris was working from home?

Speaker 1 (08:15):
How do you find that?

Speaker 2 (08:16):
It's driving me insane?

Speaker 1 (08:19):
A lot of couples must experience this, because now it's
like it's odd. We've got this big office here and
you have all these big empty offices that are pretty
much they're never one hundred percent of fall. Now it
actually makes me really sad when we go wandering out
there during the show. It's empty after nine o'clock, when
you see everyone was in Monday to Friday and now
it's like it is just like a deserted space station.

(08:43):
We're the only people that survived some sort of plaguely,
but it's like it's it's empty out there. Yeah, and
that must be the same everywhere now. But some offices
are making you come back to work. Yes, yeah, dragon,
what a lovely what a lovely conversation. That must be
your boss. You have to come to this miserable place.
I know you prefer to be happier at home, but

(09:03):
we don't want you happy and we don't trust you
to do anything. So you'll be here. I can see you.
The bosses are like lifeguards. Whistles are a big high chair. Actually,
suer boss would love that we should get.

Speaker 2 (09:19):
Like a lifeguard.

Speaker 1 (09:20):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, you work harder, how you sell the ASTs? Well?
Col Winston with the why back, I haven't heard him
on for a while, and we heard him on nover.
Give him a call. Closed the deal by lunch time
they get one of those sharks sirens, big whistle.

Speaker 2 (09:42):
He's just driving me insane yesterday, and so every time
we come down for a coffee, he'd have to have
a conversation, which I know sounds awful, but I just
I you time, Yeah, I just my brain after the
show has no capacity for conversation till about sort of
four or five at night.

Speaker 1 (09:58):
At quite out window where.

Speaker 2 (10:02):
You don't want to hear he's soon quiet. I don't
want people talking about.

Speaker 1 (10:05):
And again, what was that manto we had ten minutes ago?

Speaker 2 (10:09):
This didn't last long.

Speaker 1 (10:10):
What is it about?

Speaker 5 (10:12):
Just not Chris, not fre.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
Eight hours during the day. I'm kind to strangers, but
my beloved husband. I don't want to speak to you
or see you.

Speaker 2 (10:21):
Don't ask me on a Tuesday what the plans for
the weekend.

Speaker 1 (10:24):
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Monday.

Speaker 2 (10:26):
And I don't know about the political view that you're
I don't have a view on that because I just.

Speaker 8 (10:32):
Don't right, this is what this is what that's better
at the office, isn't it.

Speaker 1 (10:36):
It's a water cooler chat. You're right, you just want
to You need your head space, patch.

Speaker 2 (10:41):
Not only my headspace, my own. I don't I don't
want to see anyone until like four, when the school
bus comes. Then you can all converge and then we'll
have a chat. But this is sort of sacred, and
I don't want to talk to anyone, and the just
let me have my salad sandwich.

Speaker 1 (10:55):
My wife does at the same time. Sometimes I'll come
back earlier from I don't know what. It doesn't feel
early to me. It's just I'm just coming back home.
My wife goes, oh, I wasn't expecting you back now.
It's now not a good time to come into the
place I living. And you go, oh, you don't need
to talk to any about anything. No, So I just

(11:17):
need I just needment. I don't need a big conversation
about it. But you're right, he's mistaking you for a colleague,
just to have some of that clunky, sort of clunky
small talk. But the water cool, the photocopy.

Speaker 2 (11:31):
He's a people person. And I thought, oh, I can't
go into the office and do this today.

Speaker 1 (11:36):
Really, so what did you say? Did you say someone
I want to talk to you?

Speaker 9 (11:38):
No?

Speaker 2 (11:39):
I do that thing where and Audrey picks me up
on it all the time where I'll go.

Speaker 5 (11:43):
Uh huh, yeah, if.

Speaker 2 (11:45):
You're not really listening, mom, I can tell you not
even really.

Speaker 1 (11:47):
We get a lot doing the show.

Speaker 2 (11:50):
Yeah, oh really, it's.

Speaker 1 (11:53):
Interesting, okay, and it'd be like this tomorrow. Well, let's
talking between the songs antient to engage me.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
I think, oh, moms, so guilty of it though, because
we're doing a million different things. Here you are and
Master is doing it. Oh that's oh, that's great.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
So you do need your breathing space when you can
get it.

Speaker 2 (12:11):
Yeah, absolutely, I do, just to you know, just to
come down from that top of the mountain peak that
we're on by nine o'clock after this.

Speaker 1 (12:20):
However, the other side of this is if I'm just
saying about my personal if I have a say my wife,
I'm not really up for a chit chat right now,
that is an option the other way around. Apparently it's
an option. It has, But when I do that, it's
it's aggressive. Actually, not in the mood for chit chat
right now. It's just going to have my own special

(12:41):
time right now. But why seems to think that this
is that time. It's like a pilot, a surgeon. She
thinks this is But you've had that. Now, now's your
grown up time. Now you need to be in the world.

Speaker 3 (12:54):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 1 (12:57):
Christian Pepperonium Pineapple Works. I also add blue cheese that
is a like actually is it's Richard is the name?
It's a king's name, King Pizza King Richard. Oh that's
a heavy logo. And on wash that down with a
can of pinucolada. You're good to go. On a Tuesday night,

(13:19):
Christian I tell you what makes me smile. Pats's old
timey stories of her having to walk ten miles in
the snow with no shoes up here with the sack
of wood on her back and then back again.

Speaker 2 (13:30):
When's the last time I talked about my Monday?

Speaker 1 (13:35):
They are like that. That one she tried to tell
us that she used to have to swim in a creek.

Speaker 2 (13:40):
There was a creek running through the back of our
primary school.

Speaker 1 (13:43):
You used to swimming it to get to school, not
to get Yeah, and punch ourselves in the eye with spikes.
That was our lunch weight. Lucky to have it made
us tough, lucky headlines.

Speaker 10 (13:54):
We never had lunch.

Speaker 1 (13:55):
Yes, yes, Pats had to kill herself with the bare hands,
rip ox and apart, shew it eat the heart.

Speaker 2 (14:03):
Used to get snakes a lot on the cricket pitch,
and we'd have to go to the staff room and
the tea be a shovel outside the staff room for
that very reason.

Speaker 5 (14:11):
Snake shovel.

Speaker 2 (14:12):
Yeah, in the summer, Absolutely, you'd relate to the selex.

Speaker 10 (14:15):
Definitely saw so many school yeah.

Speaker 1 (14:19):
Oh yeah, I went in a class with you. No not,
Oh David, look what you've done though you've broken out
to one of those, just like said old neighbors Chan
the fence snakes. You say, Maureen, gon hear you in
the garden, Maureen. All right, let's get our phones out.
What have we been googling the last twenty four hours?

(14:41):
Open tabs here whenever you want to have a look
at what I've googled just in the last twenty four hours.
It's just because we can now to just chuck anything
throughout the day into Google. It's crazy the stuff that
you just vomit up. So this morning I woke up.
I want to know how Island had got on in
their World Cup qualify match against Armenia. Amenia ranked one
hundred and fifth in the world. They haven't won this year.

(15:02):
They've got beat my Portugal, who are in that group
as well, five nil. Island lost a huge storied. Island
is fuming with the team, the coach and rightly so.
Armenia one hundred and fifth in the world. So it's
now harder now for Island to make it to the
World Cup next year because obviously Australia is there and
apparently they were taking part in the ashes. According to

(15:24):
Alexadir and the Sports News against the un English team
New Zealand. That's the Giants. So yeah, I was looking
at that, and I want to see how Aaron Rodgers
had gone for his first game with the Steelers.

Speaker 5 (15:37):
Oh, yes, he still slinging it against his old team.

Speaker 1 (15:40):
Yes, that's right. He smashed them. He threw a couple
of touchdowns. And then I need to I need to
find out how to change over. I didn't know you
could do this. You can change over a fridge store.
You can move the hinge to the other side. My
daughter wants me to do it, right, and I was like,
can you do that? She says, yeah, but you need
to get a special You need to get a new
hinge to put it on the other side and do this.

(16:04):
I really want to do this for her. This feels
like a it's this a doable thing that someone will
my skill set.

Speaker 4 (16:10):
I was gonna say it is a doable thing, but
then for someone gift gifted with other talent. But it
is annoying because when we got our new fridge, I
had to suddenly switch from it's now left hand door,
and I spent constantly muscle memory goes on the right
hand side, so it would be a beautiful gift to

(16:31):
your door. To be able to switch the hinges.

Speaker 1 (16:33):
Around people would have done this. Is it tough? Is it?

Speaker 5 (16:37):
It looks hard? It's a big fridge door. They're not live.

Speaker 1 (16:41):
No, they're not light, and it's like lining it back up.
And I think you obviously need if you're on the
easy bit is unscrewing it. But then you're left with
how do you reattach it on the other side? Can
you swap over that? But that hinge would have been
a righty yes, yeah, yeah, you know I need to
go from the right hinge to a left hinge as
you approach the door. Now do I need to buy

(17:02):
a new hinge? And obviously need to try and find
out what the fridge is a Westinghouse, I think.

Speaker 5 (17:07):
Blind leading the blind because finitely I don't know anything.

Speaker 1 (17:09):
You ever changed the fridge hinge over?

Speaker 2 (17:11):
No, no, I didn't even know you could. But I
reckon Robert E and S would be able to.

Speaker 1 (17:17):
He's the owner. I can't say a a millionaire owner.
So I said, you don't say the bezos what I'm
bringing around? What you bring my books? I bought advertiser.
Why say you get some spanners and come round to
my daughter's place and change your free store. On Tuesday,

(17:41):
I went to two till three slot there rob E
and s. Yeah yeah, listen, change my daughter's free store.
You can't change, you cannot reach.

Speaker 8 (17:54):
I changed the washing machine store at the hinge over real, Yes,
did you?

Speaker 1 (17:59):
And I was really worried about that because that is
that's water.

Speaker 2 (18:04):
That's like a two or three person job for a fridge,
like you need someone to hold it. Well, you surely
take it off the bracket.

Speaker 8 (18:12):
Yeah, no, I reckon, that's the one person thing. You do,
the thing where you you lean it towards yourself when
your balance.

Speaker 1 (18:19):
It on your foot with a big thing, don't you. Yeah, yeah,
you get that foot there acts like a trolley. You're
that you become the trolley. But then you go, well,
I've got two hands holding this big ass door. You
should a carp on it. All of a sudden, how
am I going to free one up to do the
new move hinge right to left? You should definitely, I'm
not left handed, so there to switch it? Yeah, I
do need. I've got Robert texting right now again. Hey,

(18:44):
I haven't seen you in a couple of months. Meet
you in fitzroy two, bring your toolset okay.

Speaker 3 (18:50):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 1 (18:54):
A lot of men are giving me right now about
how difficult is it to change over the hinge on
a fridge door, Christian. Thing I learned doing bad by
the way losing to Armenia. Norway have just been mulled
over eleven to one in a World Cup qualifier. They
got to manage to United player Harland who scored five goals.

Speaker 4 (19:15):
Ah well one time in a World Cup qualifier.

Speaker 5 (19:18):
Australia beat Samoa thirty one nil.

Speaker 1 (19:21):
That's rue.

Speaker 5 (19:22):
Artie Thompson scored eleven goals.

Speaker 1 (19:26):
Christian. When you change over the hinges on a fridge,
you just close the door. Attack new do you mean
attach you put here? Attacked? I would attack them. That
would be the problem, Christian. They aren't like normal door hinges.
They're basically pins that go through the top on the
bottom corners, hence reversible. You don't need to buy a
new hinge. They are universal.

Speaker 5 (19:47):
It's easier or harder.

Speaker 1 (19:49):
This is just no, no, no, just no. What air
taskers invented for that economy going okay, it's it's money
that somebody else can do that as well, we just say.
Kaitlyn came in and said it would it would take
me a day, a day, a day. She lets me
up and down assessingly, went a man like you, it

(20:11):
would take a day, a human day, well, a normal
man maybe a couple of minutes. But a radio man
who's built a radio and only that, then that's a
day of your time, of your your DJ units. Patsy,
what have you been googling? What's your open your open
your tabs? Well?

Speaker 2 (20:29):
On Sunday at Father's Day lunch, we were at the
Langham looking out over the Yarra River and I said
to Chris, it's so beautiful there and it's.

Speaker 1 (20:38):
A lovely spot. It's really nice. The City of Flindus.

Speaker 2 (20:41):
Street station, the skyline, and I said, you know, dolphins
come up this far in the in the era and
they lost burst into laughter and said, no, there is
no dolphins in the Arraw River. And I said, absolutely
there is. There's always sighting. So I googled it in
the restaurant and they have your kid.

Speaker 1 (21:00):
Yes, yes, what that far into the Yarrow, the Doghar.

Speaker 2 (21:03):
Into the Arraw. So there was a siding in as
close back as what five years ago twenty twenty, dolphins
were seen in the Yarraw River.

Speaker 1 (21:12):
At that must have been some sort of exception.

Speaker 4 (21:16):
And was it like, you know, people see the yetties, like,
do they actually see a dolphins?

Speaker 1 (21:21):
Are you sure this wasn't like a like a turd
or something, you know, and they thought it was fin's
It might have been a floater or something.

Speaker 10 (21:28):
And when they're radioactive blowing.

Speaker 2 (21:31):
And then in twenty eighteen near Richmond in the Chapel
Street Reach, and then again the year before in the
CBD d you right near the Botannic Gardens. So they
are in and around bottle those dolphins.

Speaker 1 (21:44):
They must be lost, you know, sometimes it can get confused,
you know, with sonar equipment, they can get lost. Yeah,
and they and they missed sort of reeds, qes and
stuff like that. But any sense why they'd come this fire?

Speaker 5 (21:56):
I know, what do they in Richmond? Maybe this float?
Maybe they look at the g Yeah.

Speaker 1 (22:02):
Final, why can't dolphins have day trips just pouring being
out of that bay or day doan looking at the
fairies and the boats they just fancy coming up and
look around. Hey, let's go in the city, go and
taking MJ the musical.

Speaker 2 (22:17):
How far they go though, Like on any given how
far do they venture from the bay into other sort
of inlets and stuff?

Speaker 1 (22:24):
They must fit tracking devices on them, they can't. I reckon.
There's been no sightings for the last couple of years
where you reckon. The last one was five years ago.

Speaker 2 (22:32):
Yeah, twenty twenty.

Speaker 5 (22:33):
I'm looking at a photo though, Christian.

Speaker 9 (22:34):
This is the y dolphins.

Speaker 5 (22:37):
These are dolphins that are like leaping into the air.
It's incredible.

Speaker 1 (22:41):
Yeah, wow, imagine seeing that wouldn't be now, Ria, what
have you been googling? What's in your open tabs?

Speaker 5 (22:47):
I've been googling what uses more energy?

Speaker 4 (22:50):
Dishwashers or hand washing, because I probably, like everyone, hate
washing things up by hand, pain in the ass. I
sort of see dishwashing as almost like an indulgence, Like
you use it sparingly.

Speaker 5 (23:01):
It's going to use a lot of energy. You're going
to use a lot of water. I'll try to handle it.

Speaker 1 (23:04):
You really are worried about this place you're bought now,
where you're working out out, I'll tell you what. Get
a dishwasher, just shove it in there. I hope it
uses up a lot of energy. I'm groudly going to
pay you to do it because I had years in
my life when I didn't have a dish washer.

Speaker 4 (23:17):
Yes here, Well you'll be very very happy to know.
And it's changed my life finding this out. Dishwashers not
only use much less water than.

Speaker 1 (23:26):
Hand washing today, I bet they do, they.

Speaker 4 (23:28):
Also use much less energy because it takes if they're
very efficient at heating water. So if you're going to
make a tubful of hot water, that's going to use
more energy and water than just chucking stuff in the dishwasher.

Speaker 1 (23:40):
Yeah, because you leave You're right, I guess you're leaving
that tap running for ages, aren't you?

Speaker 5 (23:43):
Exactly?

Speaker 4 (23:44):
So now I'm just chucking anything in the dishwasher, like
anything goes.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
Put the thongs in.

Speaker 4 (23:50):
Like yesterday I was looking at this dirty pass the
dish I was like, can't be bother washing that? Bam
straight in the dishwasher.

Speaker 1 (23:55):
Done.

Speaker 4 (23:56):
It's so good and you don't feel guilty anymore. It'll
change your life.

Speaker 1 (23:59):
The quick wash. The quick wash wash told me that
it's quicker and better for it that you don't close
up the little tap. You know it's got that little
and you just chuck it straight in there. Oh why
is that it's about three minutes quicker, and it just
it just cleans the plates more. They get that water
gets straight access to that little tablet. I have to say,

(24:21):
I do you find it pleasing touching that?

Speaker 5 (24:24):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (24:25):
Yes?

Speaker 1 (24:25):
Squishy yes yes yeah, so like like a fidget spinner
or something like that them.

Speaker 3 (24:32):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 1 (24:35):
That's the Actually something happened to me yesterday and I thought,
I wonder what Pats would have done this situation. I
was put into a very awkward situation yesterday. I went
over to one of the more expensive and pricey and
beautiful parts of Melbourne, Albert Park. Oh yeah, of course
that's where they have that billionaire sport F one tickets
go and sell today. Actually think at midday. So if

(24:56):
you work with a piston head like we do on
the team Lockie, he'll be doing no work from midday.
GA tickets go and sell midday today. Big, it's going
to be the biggest US Training Grand Prix ever. Next
year the sport gets bigger and bigger and bigger than
really some more tickets. But anyway, I want to surprise
my wife. She's a massive fan of Elizabeth Gilbert and
her new book came out yesterday and I was ringing
around old school see if they had a copy, and

(25:18):
Avenue bookstores. It's a brilliant chain of them. There's one
here in Richmond. They didn't have it, yeah, but they did.
The one in albert Park did. So I went over
to albert Park got the book for her to surprise her,
and I thought, I'll have some breakfast some staff in now.
So it's a gift for my wife and a gift
for Christy Boy, a listener. It serves me right. So
I wanted some chili scrambled eggs with a side of bacon.

Speaker 5 (25:42):
Beautiful.

Speaker 1 (25:43):
I got to pay. I didn't have the bacon. They
charged me for the bacon.

Speaker 2 (25:48):
What do you mean you didn't you didn't eat it,
or they didn't I didn't bring it.

Speaker 5 (25:52):
You didn't say anything even at the time when you
get a bacon.

Speaker 1 (25:56):
I have a real I have a real problem.

Speaker 3 (25:59):
Right.

Speaker 1 (25:59):
If Sarah was that, I'd ask her to say something,
because you talk for a living, you do stand up anywhere,
you jump up into that. You won't even so where's
my bacon? Go and ask man? So I just skunked
out there stopped. I thought, you've grown. You gotta go
back in and say something. But the listener was so kind.
They'd asked for a photo with me. I can't then

(26:19):
go hey, I think you scam me. You're tickling my
ego one hand and then you take your money out
of my back pocket. I don't think you do. Listen
to the show. But you tried that one the other
day with you know sampang.

Speaker 5 (26:33):
Or dam Paign didn't get his postry.

Speaker 1 (26:37):

She's like, send it back.

Speaker 4 (26:55):
I was like, idn't possibly possibly, and she took it
up for me to be even sounded.

Speaker 1 (27:00):
English when you said I couldn't possibly, that's how we sound.

Speaker 5 (27:04):
It makes my blood run.

Speaker 1 (27:05):
I would apologize. I would apologize for not having my
own bacon. I'm sorry, I'm sorry I even ordered it.
I'm sorry to ask, I'm sorry to have to I
paid it. It wasn't cheap Albert Park side of bloody bacon?
Am I paying for the pig is and then like Christmas,
hating myself all day. I was so annoyed. I didn't
have the balls to go in going hey, listen, you

(27:27):
know you're obviously busy. But I never got that bacon
because then I thought they might think that I was lying.
And I hate the bacon, and that's even worse that
they were with it. I met that English guy once
and he what he does. He goes around asking for
a sign of bacon and then he eats and goes.
I didn't get many bacon bacon. It's a deadly mail CMZ.

Speaker 10 (27:47):
Having in Albourn Park, I frequent these, you do, Gorsey does.

Speaker 1 (27:52):
I'm sorry to hear this bacon and eating it? Yeah,
so perhaps would you have gone back? It'd be honest
right if it was a listener and they just asked
for a photo with you, would you go in and
go They paid twelve dollars more for something I didn't good.

Speaker 2 (28:07):
No, it's all about time and it's all about how
you bring the topic up. Chris will do this. I
won't say anything, but he'll be scathing in the cars.

the Saint McLean. Yes. And on the show we were
we had some stories for the ages, simply asking you

tale in the show's history of a dog. How do
I politely say, I can't taken out of taking left

away to give the kids a story of thought out.

Speaker 5 (35:01):
Love exactly and delicious, delicious.

Speaker 1 (35:04):
And the great glocamonia of life. People are now thinking
it must have been fever Tree yesterday it really was.
Actually we also had the story about the daughter's goldfish
that died and then the mum Coraline, threw it over
the neighbor's fence, but it got stuck in a tree

(35:25):
and no one could get it down, so it was
up there for a while, just that one eye judging you.
You knew what you did. Ina rescued her fish from
a house that she was selling, and then she took
her to a new place, and every time someone came
round she would give them a leaving gift of one
of the goldfish. What a gift is it? You're just
offloading new problems, Tano emailed me yesterday. We didn't have

(35:49):
time for these ones, Christian. My sister had two small
pet rabbits and asked me if I could look after
them for a few days until she got settled in
a new home. It's been two and a half years.
She hasn't come back to pick them up. Ah, what.

Speaker 5 (36:01):
That is?

Speaker 1 (36:04):
You don't mention it? And then we were talking earlier
about men that don't mention anything. Your rabbits what nothing? Sorry,
when you know what, you're probably not settled in and
that you've unpacked everything. It's only been annoying kid to
have it. Like my really annoying pets. Christian friend of
ars had just moved into a new house. I had
no fencing, so I had to leave their French bulldog

(36:26):
puppy inside when they went to work. It wasn't toilet trained. Unfortunately,
they didn't factor a robo vacuum would start up during
the day. Without going into too much detail, you can
imagine the mess they came. Yeah, those robot vacuums go everywhere.
They would have really re decorated the Actually just a

(36:47):
touch a brown about this house. Head of a smell
beautiful molly paint. That's a new thing. Multi Sensory an
art exhibition at MoMA.

Speaker 3 (37:01):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 1 (37:04):
Magpie Season's backy boy. I don't fear the Magpies because
you know, I rescued a baby one last year and
they apparently they've got amazing memories. So I walk unfair,
you've got diplomatic immunity. Yeah, they go let him through.
He's one of us, he has our protection. He protected
one of ours. However, I saw some scorkids yesterday screaming

(37:26):
and running down the street, running home because some magpies.
I couldn't see the magpies. I saw these kids running
and I just thought, God, what's happening? And they were okay,
and then they were like, you know, all you need
is one kid to shout something, and no one looks revidence,
any excuse for screeching and running. That age, it was
all like you would run everywhere. You would never walk

(37:48):
anywhere unless it was to maths or pe, you know,
the slowest walk possible. And yes, the time you're just
running to various bits of your life weren't. Yes, we
don't run anywhere, now, do we. We're just saunter Christian.
My dog Buzz ran away from home. Three months went
by and we've given up. We come to terms. We
were never going to see him a game. One morning

(38:08):
we heard a scratch at the front door. Bus was back.
He'd come home, but he wasn't alone. He'd brought a
female friend with him, buzs you dirty old dog to
infinity and beyond. As soon as we open the door, though,
his friend pretty much ran away.

Speaker 5 (38:27):
Ahint that always the way?

Speaker 1 (38:29):
Oh my god, so true. Oh, Buss, sit down, tell
me some Luce Santo. Very funny story, Thank you very much.
All right, there's two six word weeks so far. It's Wednesday,
is the middle of the week. Rio, how's your week
going so far? In six words?

Speaker 4 (38:45):
Lied to the hot gym receptionist, what's happened here?

Speaker 5 (38:50):
I haven't been to the gym all winter.

Speaker 4 (38:53):
I've been hibernating like a bear doing it's just too
cold to the gym.

Speaker 1 (38:58):
There's just too many reasons to go. Well, you get
warmed up at the gym, get your pump on.

Speaker 5 (39:03):
Yeah, but then you've got to be a bit cold
before that.

Speaker 4 (39:05):
And so once you get into a pattern of not going,
it's so easy to just not go.

Speaker 5 (39:09):
You're just like, I'm just not I'm not jimming at
the moment. But now it's warming.

Speaker 1 (39:13):
Well, and he went back, get that beach body back here.

Speaker 4 (39:15):
Yes, Well, someone's approaching, you know, at a terrifying pace.
I better get back into shape, So I go back
and our gym has a hot receptionist. I think most
gyms do. It's maybe part of their like honeypot trick.

Speaker 1 (39:28):
You're right, Actually they don't stack it with fuglies. No
sign up, Yeah it is, it is. It's an age
old trick. Same when you're driving around that the people
that operate the stop go signs yes because you're about
to wind down the window and you go, actually have
a nice day, Madam slop show.

Speaker 5 (39:47):
And she actually trapped me.

Speaker 4 (39:48):
She signed me up to a whole one year, you know,
pay a whole no, because she said, you.

Speaker 1 (39:53):
Can never leave them. It's harder than get the divorce.
You can never leave your gym.

Speaker 4 (39:57):
Because she's flooded me going, oh, you're always here, why
don't you just sign up for the whole year.

Speaker 5 (40:01):
You'll save money.

Speaker 4 (40:02):
I'm like, you're so bloody right I am. I'm here
like two days a week, I'm always here. You're right,
I'll sign up for the year.

I come back and she goes.

Speaker 1 (40:10):
Well, well, well shaming, Jim, shame, Jim sham.

of laugh at afa. Yeah, I'm back, but I was entranced.

walked up to me. He said, we lost the number plate,

(48:20):
and I said, one. I said, yes, I said, where
you find it is in the Thompson River. It's in
my main cave. That was about five or six years later.

Speaker 1 (48:30):

Speaker 6 (48:32):
Yeah, I've still got the same number plate up for
fifteen years. I've got the hour in the middle of

Speaker 3 (49:18):
Right the Christian o'connall show podcast.

Speaker 1 (49:22):
Andrew wentz to send me a message pet stories Christian.
My grandparents were selling their house. Before they sold it,
they asked me if I could dig up their dead
dogs because they wanted they wanted to take the Why
are you kidding me? They've been in the ground for
six months. I ain't gonna be there only a bit

(49:44):
of Fido's remains. Grizzly a jog. You don't ask your
grandson to do that, or any son? I said, no problem.
I started digging them up and everything was going great.
Was it that when I picked up the box that
my grandfather put them in the bottom fell out on

(50:04):
the grounds and there was a big breeze and some
of them flew up into my mouth?

Speaker 4 (50:09):
Why?

Speaker 1 (50:10):
I stared up at the sky and said, are you
testing my patients? I transported what was left of them
to the new place and they seemed happy. Oh, Andrew, incredible.
Twenty four hours on from another Grizzly Dog story, the
remains the remains and taken them. We've been talking this

(50:30):
week about what you take with you? What are the arts? Yes, Andrew,
that's an incredible story. I never thought such a scene
would exist, digging up dead dogs to take. We want
to take them with us.

Speaker 5 (50:41):
Why is that our new wheelhouse?

Speaker 1 (50:43):
Now we're going to get a name for it. Oh,
it's people and officers. Ago do you talk about dead dog?
If you want to call the English guy Christian, someone
on you want to call him? Whole shows around that
every day Christian. What are the odds? When my mum
was in kindergarten, she got a photo taken of her
doing a painting. Twenty five years later, I had my

(51:04):
photo taking a kinder doing a painting. It was exactly
the same picture. Oh, Tracy, I love that one. Thank
you very much. We got Michael here, Michael, Welcome to
the show.

Speaker 4 (51:17):
Yeah.

Speaker 14 (51:17):
So I'm a fool teacher and I was that teaching
in Melton at the time. This was probably going to
back fifteen years ago. Now I was doing Melton and
in Victoria and after school finished, on the very last
day of school, we broke up for lunch. We finished
at lunchtime. I caught a flight to Tasmania to lawn
System that particular afternoon, and before catching up with people

(51:40):
that I wanted to see, I thought, I'll just pop
up to the lawn System gorge and there's this little
look out there that's very remote. You would never know
where I was unless you you know, so anyway, So
I'm going down there, walking up to this lookout and
this random spot, and then all of a sudden I
see one of my colleagues who I had seen that
morning at school and they were at this exact same far.

Speaker 1 (52:06):
Was that a great one? What are the odds? An
obscure lookout spot and you're looking out for each other?

Speaker 14 (52:11):
Yeah, what are the arts?

Speaker 1 (52:16):
And you go up there and you look around this
and you can't see any ikeas from Miles and Miles. Michael,
that's a great one. Thank you very much for sharing.

Speaker 3 (52:27):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 1 (52:30):
We're doing what are the odds? Your stories of coincidence
and chants? Christian. Some photos were taken out a nineteen
nineties party I was at. There was an older lady
in the background of some of them. Ten years later,
after I got married, I was going through old photos.
My now husband says, why is my mum in these photos?
My future mother in law was in these photos ten

(52:53):
years before I met my husband. Excuse me, goosebumps. That's incredible, Kelly,
I love that one. Christian. I laughed so hard about
that story you just wrote out about digging up his grandparents'
dead dogs. I nearly choked on my toast. Oh, I
just said to Beausa Kaitlin, how about that story? All right?
I was telling her about it because she was taking

(53:14):
your calls. I said, oh my god, this guy's grandparents
asked them dig up the dead dogs that they buried
eight months previously because they're moving home and when it
goes and I said, to that crazy, I've never heard
such thing shows. Oh no though, that that's not weird.
We had to dig up our uncle and I said, pause,
let's rewind and press play on air right now, pu Kaitlin, Yes,
it happened about un Yeah.

Speaker 15 (53:35):
So my uncle died and my stepmother wanted to keep
him close, so he buried his ashes in the backyard
in the box that it came in, and we had
a beautiful little plarque for him, and then we sold
the family home and so she didn't want to leave
my uncle there, so we decided to just dig up
the box.

Speaker 2 (53:55):
It was a box, so it wasn't like a.

Speaker 1 (53:57):
Yeah, no I know, yeah, I know those Yeah, I
know what they're coming in.

Speaker 2 (53:59):
Yeah, dug up the box.

Speaker 1 (54:00):
And few because the way you the way you said
it to me, there was no ashes in that story.
You said we had to dig up our uncle, and
it was sort of like is it a Bogan funeral
because you have a viking one worrying him down above
ground pool just in a camping chair, just sat in it.

(54:24):
It's some carcamaine Forax to get me through to the
other side.

Speaker 2 (54:28):
It was next to the above.

Speaker 1 (54:33):
We weren't far away. We weren't far away, just out
of you. There's normally a bogan scene there in the
background of Cage's stories. All right, let is take one
call quickly. We've got Marina on the line. Hey, Marina,
welcome to the show. Hi Christian, I'm good Marina and Marina,
what's your story for us?

Speaker 7 (54:50):
My story is years ago, I went to a party
with my ex boyfriend that would have been in about
nineteen ninety three, and we went to the house and
you had to take shoes off because she was a
clean freak. And my husband, my boyfriend at the time,
was wearing bludstone boots and he took them off. And
then we came home and I looked down at his boots.
I said, you've brought the wrong boots home. I said,

(55:11):
they're not your boots. They're way too clean to be
your boots. A couple of years later, I met my
now husband of thirty years, and through conversations wet we
realized we met at mutual parties and they were his
boots that were brought home to my house or he
was living with me.

Speaker 1 (55:30):
This is this is like a male version of Cinderetta. Yeah,
is this slipper? Yours? Are these blunstones? Yours? If the
blonstone fits?

Speaker 7 (55:40):
And my husband is a clean freak, so his boots
will clean boots.

Speaker 4 (55:46):
Well, I feel like your ex boyfriend maybe brought that energy, brought.

Speaker 5 (55:49):
The boots into the house, and you.

Speaker 1 (55:52):
Were like, I wouldn't mind getting a piece of whoever's feet.

Speaker 10 (55:54):
Were in these.

Speaker 7 (55:55):
It was definitely a good energy.

Speaker 1 (56:01):

Speaker 1 (56:54):
Christian. This is from Eric Christian. Did I just hear
you say you're doing pet stories? Are you? If you are?
I am. Many years ago I was working at school.
Calast had an incubator where you could watch chicken eggs hatch.
Once they hatch, the kids got a chance to take
the chicks home. What a terrible idea. And I say
this as a father myself, but children of a certain

(57:17):
age are psychos, No that they are. You know. One
girl took home five chicks for the weekend and return
them on Monday. Turned out the father and that accidentally
stepped on one, sending it to chicken Eaven. They buried
it in the backyard, had a ceremony. Meanwhile, the following Monday,

(57:37):
here younger brother is quite a strange kid. Did show
and tell it kinder He brought in the dead chick.
Oh my, what hell of a show. What a show stopper.

Speaker 5 (57:52):
It really stinks.

Speaker 1 (57:54):
