FULL: Fly Breeding Season

We unleash a chaotic mix of break ins, break outs and sheer stupidity. Listeners confess to climbing through windows, sneaking into their own homes and generally proving locks are their mortal enemy. Then things get even weirder with a parade of brilliantly named pets: from Professor Fluffy Pants to a cat called VB.

I Heeart podcasts.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
You can hear more gold one I four point three podcasts,

Speaker 1 (00:18):
Got anything good?

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

Speaker 2 (00:27):
Anyone else noticed there's a lot of flies around at
the moment yesterday moving house yesterday. The hardest thing about
it was the flipping flies. You got both hands in
a box. They know I can't swap them away.

Speaker 4 (00:41):
You need one of those bee keepers outfits Norminy.

Speaker 1 (00:44):
W Way Perth.

Speaker 2 (00:46):
If you have been there when it's peak fly season,
it's terrible.

Speaker 1 (00:49):
Oh god, it's horrendous.

Speaker 2 (00:52):
Hotels give you like some almost like a beekeepers out
This app has got like a visor to it. You
sat there reading your kindle. Yeah, everyone's got these kind
of light It's just no fun. I spent three years there,
so I know you would know what is it about
those flies?

Speaker 5 (01:08):
Know what is especially in Kirgouley and Bunbury and those
out of places, the out of reaches.

Speaker 2 (01:12):
Of w a Ye beautiful, beautiful, stunning part of Australia.
But the flies, they're chronic. There's a certain fly season
now has someone taken them from w a illicitly and
brought them into Melbourne. I've never noticed it, but the
last couple of days there's a lot of it.

Speaker 6 (01:29):
Oh, is a breeding season, must be a breeding.

Speaker 7 (01:32):
I'm not familiar with the dates of my dive.

Speaker 1 (01:34):
I don't remember it ever been like this before.

Speaker 4 (01:37):
No, at some point in summer there are a lot
of flies.

Speaker 1 (01:40):
They love the heat.

Speaker 4 (01:41):
I think that's why they're always out there in w A.

Speaker 2 (01:42):
So the larvae, sure, I just want to say that again.
It's pleasing to say the larvae hatch with the heat.

Speaker 1 (01:50):
That's my guess. The radio just needs to be true
to sound true.

Speaker 7 (01:57):
The larva obviously love that hat.

Speaker 2 (01:58):
This time of the hatching, Patsy, in the last six years,
I want to hear.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
The larvae count is high.

Speaker 8 (02:04):
Today and it's those tiny little pisky flies you know
that get up even up under your glasses in.

Speaker 1 (02:12):
Your mouth, up nostril.

Speaker 4 (02:14):
I don't know this is, but I once sniffed a
fly came out my mouth.

Speaker 1 (02:18):
I remember rough.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
So we kind of moved yesterday. We slept last night
in the new place.

Speaker 1 (02:30):
Well done, poor pats. Brutal day. We didn't stop lugging
box till half seven yesterday.

Speaker 7 (02:35):
So you from like nine thirty years.

Speaker 2 (02:37):
As soon as I left here, all of us and
the blinds in the new bedroom broken.

Speaker 7 (02:44):
Oh it's a full moon, and.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
So my wife sleeps with an eye mask. She was fine,
deeper sleep, snoring, smart woman, awake al night. I've been awake,
cool night.

Speaker 1 (02:55):
Why did you put an arm?

Speaker 2 (02:56):
Because I have this thing since I became a dad.
I always think I need to be vigilant, semi vigilant
during the night.

Speaker 1 (03:02):
An i'm asked, would take me out of it.

Speaker 7 (03:04):
Okavin, your kids aren't there.

Speaker 1 (03:05):
Now, it's one of them was, It doesn't matter. I
can't on that off.

Speaker 2 (03:10):
And I always had an argument last night aboutually Chris,
I might stop me to stubborn and I need. At
one point I went, I need to be stubborn. I'm
so tired right now speaking.

Speaker 1 (03:17):
The truth.

Speaker 2 (03:19):
I said I need in case anything happens. I can't
be too asleep. No, but it means I reacts a
bit quicker.

Speaker 4 (03:26):
So you don't want to go into a deep now
you need to get up and fight.

Speaker 1 (03:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
I think I exist in a diet maybe too much,
John Wieck, I'm not a retired assassin. I'm getting confused
between real life fiction.

Speaker 8 (03:42):
The love God's like that though, he has to sleep
closest to the doorway.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
Yeah, always wherever you are in the hotel room when
we're going, who's whatever's nearest to the dorm.

Speaker 1 (03:52):
That's a pretty historic thing, surely.

Speaker 2 (03:54):
Yeah, they didn't have doors in caves, but I guess
the cave door door for that flip.

Speaker 4 (04:03):
And I won't slings on this save the tiger.

Speaker 2 (04:06):
So obviously last night I didn't want to says there's
a big moon at the moment, huge, like big ass moon.

Speaker 1 (04:12):
It's like we've moved to the MCG. Do you know
we just accept this is the story of tonight. There's
no sleep coming for me.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
And then when I was nodding off utterly confused, you
know we use this. You're not in right orientation to
your place.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
In the world.

Speaker 2 (04:29):
Yes, yeah, yeah, we're facing My head's facing somewhere, hasn't
been for the last seven years.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
Why do these things matter? But they do.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
You're an olympic system or whatever is. My nervous system
couldn't relax. Whereas Missus O'Connell was in a deep primordial sleep.
My wife goes to another planet when she goes to sleep.
She got the eyemask the ear plugs and then when
she wakes up, it's like.

Speaker 1 (04:57):
What happens to you at nights on? Where do you
go back to that planet? Like Superman came from? Wherever?
It was? All right?

Speaker 2 (05:05):
Coming up next town. Are you a Monday winner or loser?
How did you start the week yesterday? Are you winning
the week or losing?

Speaker 3 (05:12):
Let me know The Christian o'connall show podcast.

Speaker 2 (05:16):
You know, yesterday we were talking about who does the
final locking up in the house and obviously you didn't
realize that as an adult you do need to close
the windows at night. Obviously my job leaving the house,
the old house yesterday to spend our first night at
the new place. Last night my job did the final locks. Okay,
we've got to go back today, finish it all off,
and the cleaners come in, final expansion for the new family.

Speaker 1 (05:39):
And then tomorrow that part of our lives we leave
the keys. Wow, big deal for us, A big deal.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
Yesterday I did the final checks, I left, and I
got down the road and I forgot the count the dog.
When I approached the house, they were both sat staring
through a window together like hello, leaving the WAYSA Larry wretch.

Speaker 1 (06:05):
Come on, fellas, I'm so sorry.

Speaker 2 (06:08):
Gift for the family, all the fittings and pets, the
world's biggest cats, biggest cat.

Speaker 1 (06:15):
He were all quiet, five meals a day. How they
adjusted to the new place.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
Larry just crying all night, yewing this scene in his
heart out like he was in a prison.

Speaker 1 (06:25):
Sound rock or you heard from various family members.

Speaker 9 (06:32):
Shut up Larry, and he was.

Speaker 2 (06:35):
I hadn't taken requests go through my teeth, cuts.

Speaker 1 (06:41):
That and that illuminated moon. I was like, this, can't.
I don't have to get up early in the morning
talk for three hours.

Speaker 2 (06:47):
You're not even allowed to operate heavy machinery and a
heavy wreckors show leading you guys.

Speaker 1 (06:52):
Around for three hours.

Speaker 2 (06:53):
It's a lot and I do not need the callers
phoning it in today, so to speak.

Speaker 7 (06:59):
Yes, bring your a game, A game, A game.

Speaker 1 (07:02):
Only today, A game only? All right? So you Monday
winter or lose real? How was your day yesterday?

Speaker 7 (07:07):
I am a Monday loser.

Speaker 9 (07:09):
We've moved out of our apartment, but we've got to
get it ready for the next people coming in. We've
got these huge holes in the wall where the we
wore mounted the TV, which seemed like a brilliant idea.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
At the time. What are you do the brackets here?

Speaker 9 (07:22):
We did the brackets, but there are these two big
holes from where the cords had to come through.

Speaker 10 (07:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (07:26):
Yeah, it's all hidden away now, is yes?

Speaker 2 (07:29):
Yeah, years ago everything was out that whole, that nest
of Htmi Gables, viper's nest.

Speaker 1 (07:34):
Now it's all hidden away.

Speaker 4 (07:36):
Yes, but it comes at a cost because they just
chuck it all into.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
The water because it's behind the TV. They don't make
it look pretty because you can get something called now
a recess box. All right, Yeah, now that's the fancy
ware of doing it. So it's all neatly done, but
it's not the way it's been done before.

Speaker 1 (07:50):
They just saw a rejaggedy hole. So it's punching.

Speaker 2 (07:54):
Tyson has been punching it, ramming a load of cables literally,
and then it's outside out of mind the TV A
got oh my god.

Speaker 9 (08:02):
People, So I went to the hardware still, I got
the spack filler kit and I got the little chip
of paint to say, hey, can you get me this paint?

Speaker 4 (08:12):
And I know they have like a little paint matching machine.
But there was this guy who was you know, almost
like when a waiter doesn't have the little note pad to.

Speaker 1 (08:21):
Take reassure me.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
When they do that, they always come back which one
wants to be.

Speaker 4 (08:28):
So I passed him the chip and he goes, ah, yep,
ye yea yeah, du Lux warm white. And I was like,
I love your confidence, but you just sort of with
your eyes like I need you.

Speaker 9 (08:39):
Can you put it through a thing? But I'm not
brave enough to say that because I'm an idiot.

Speaker 7 (08:42):
What do I know? You're the Actually he might have.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
Been working in paint and from a whole generation doing that, yes,
where they're a chin.

Speaker 9 (08:49):
To it, so he does know, yes, So I took
his word for it. I got the due Lux warm
white painted.

Speaker 2 (08:56):
On the wall.

Speaker 7 (08:56):
I looked at it.

Speaker 1 (08:57):
I was like, look right, it looks pretty.

Speaker 9 (09:00):
So it's not warm, it looks really it just looks
really really white, like compared to the rest of the wall.

Speaker 2 (09:05):
And also when you go to those paint places, who
knew they were about eighty two varieties of white? Just
why come if we all off white weight, there's an
on white?

Speaker 1 (09:14):
Yeah, what's the warm white? Cool light? Look warm white?

Speaker 9 (09:18):
The whole world just needs to agree on one whit
while we over complicated, We're just's just go with one
worse I came I came back yesterday. Maybe if it
was dried, it would you know, have sort of blended
in or something.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
It looks like crap, like.

Speaker 2 (09:31):
I bet it would look worse. Now it's like you've
underlie it or highlighted it.

Speaker 7 (09:36):
I would have been better off leaving the holes in
the wall.

Speaker 9 (09:38):
So I take it back and I get it checked
properly by this different lady who was really good, and
she's like, ah, yeah, that's torment bright white or something
like that. I was like, well, I've painted it all
with lux warm white. So now today I'm going to
go over it with the Torment.

Speaker 2 (09:54):
His check with their team. They might be okay with this.
Probably just gonna put a TV up there, anyway.

Speaker 4 (10:01):
Are you happy with the big ugly square.

Speaker 1 (10:04):
That's a good idea. Otherwise, were they going to put
their TV?

Speaker 7 (10:07):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (10:07):
But maybe they just put it like one of those
TV No one has a TV stand these days.

Speaker 1 (10:11):
Okay, they're all warm mounted.

Speaker 4 (10:13):
Okay, before I do any more work, I'll ask them,
are you happy with a big, ugly white square?

Speaker 1 (10:19):
Probably want to put your TV here?

Speaker 3 (10:20):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (10:21):
It's a great spot for the t I've highlight.

Speaker 2 (10:23):
Today as you could see with a strange.

Speaker 1 (10:25):
Color, this is where the TV goes. I did this
to you guys, so welcome. Then get them to pay
for it. Thank you now one day winner. Thanks.

Speaker 2 (10:34):
So we sat down last night We've got a takeaway
and everyone was just tired, right, And then now the
kids and my wife are convinced that the TV wall
mounted that the guy did with me on Sunday, that
my wife had a nightmare that is too high.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
Oh yeah, yeah yeah.

Speaker 2 (10:51):
And at first I was just like, no, it's not

Speaker 9 (11:16):
Because it's all going to have bad next just trying
to watch it's like, you know, in a hotel, in
an airport that TV is always too higher.

Speaker 1 (11:24):
I've been on a plane. Do you remember when there
was just that one TV on a plane, just one
TV in the middle, a bit bigger than an iPhone.

Speaker 2 (11:35):
Okay, we're gonna watch a lot of the Rings three
out on this bar of soap TV.

Speaker 4 (11:39):
If you want to move it, I've got plenty of backfield.

Speaker 3 (11:44):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 1 (11:48):
Working at this place tests you.

Speaker 2 (11:50):
Sometimes you come in one day everything's fine, the next
day everything's changed for no reason. I just tried to
print a document, a very simple task. Now some sort
of things popped up, saying, hang on a second, do
you trust this printer? I'm like, I'm not giving it,
intel king and tell I just want to print off
an email about a curry sauce recipe that a listener

(12:13):
called Grahame has kindly sent me.

Speaker 4 (12:14):
It takes time to build trust, some right question to ask.

Speaker 2 (12:18):
A right quite right now is telling me I've got
to installed drivers today. A game printer. I need your
a game printer. Perhaps, Are you winner or loser.

Speaker 8 (12:27):
I'm definitely a winner for Monday, because our cleaner came
yesterday and very kindly. When I got home, I had
a beautiful surprise. When I got home, she had left
us a little, tiny mini Christmas tree. Just to put
on the coffee table. So that makes four Christmas trees
in the Newman household for this love for all of her,

(12:51):
isn't it?

Speaker 7 (12:55):

from Pats.

Speaker 8 (13:10):
In my life, I always do a little gift that's
wrapped on the bench with your money, those perth ones.

Speaker 6 (13:17):
And I thought it's so cute I might bring it
in and sit it in the middle of your story.

Speaker 1 (13:23):
Christmas trees. It's a lovely chrey. We just had a
look at it. He had a look at it before
the show. You said it was ugly.

Speaker 7 (13:34):
I did not say that.

Speaker 1 (13:36):
He said that the studio.

Speaker 7 (13:38):
I think it's it's a.

Speaker 1 (13:43):
Unique looking tree.

Speaker 11 (13:44):
Well, because you two are such grinches and you have
absolutely no Christmas spirit.

Speaker 1 (13:49):
Who love Christmas. It's my favorite decorations you just moved
in Perts. Well, you can take it home to the girls.

Speaker 7 (14:00):

to do list today. Christmas tree.

while to go. It should be up. It should be

This is the third time in the last five weeks

(18:34):
I've lost a pair of.

Speaker 1 (18:36):
Don't you need that band you can put behind them?
You know that strap.

Speaker 2 (18:41):
It's not the coolest thing, but then cramming himself into
one of those middle aged cyclists.

Speaker 1 (18:47):
Ain't it's an unforgiving fabric.

Speaker 2 (18:51):
It's silhouettes and accentuates bumps and humps.

Speaker 8 (18:56):
They should not be worn off a bicycle. I'm sorry,
don't go and have breakfast in a cafe.

Speaker 1 (19:02):
I do not go to.

Speaker 2 (19:04):
Really pushed me off my snag when I see a
little one cramped in some dudes, it's all just again compighlighted.

Speaker 2 (20:01):
The scene at the airport where there's this nothing but
goodness is happening. All the different storylines, everyone's getting something
good going on.

Speaker 1 (20:10):
That's my favorite scene for me. It's Emma Thompson when
she finds out he's been having an a fair with
the office tart.

Speaker 11 (20:20):
I just think that I feel so outrageous every time
your favorite because Emma, Emma Thompson brings all that you
know with her.

Speaker 1 (20:32):
Who was she married to you?

Speaker 7 (20:34):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (20:35):
No, but in real life?

Speaker 3 (20:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (20:38):
And she channeled all of that hurt in that particular

Speaker 4 (24:27):
I watched this for the first time on the weekend.

Speaker 1 (24:29):

Speaker 4 (24:32):
No, we weren't allowed to watch it because my sister
was too scared of the group.

Speaker 2 (24:34):
So the irritating, hyperactive Jim Carrey is.

Speaker 3 (24:52):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 2 (24:56):
Small thing in life that drives you crazy, judge you
mad things that make you go good for me, It's
a World Cup one. I cannot wait as a football
fan for the World Cup next year. More countries than ever,
more games, soccers are going to be there, England going
to be there. If you love football, it doesn't get
any bigger. However, Yester, now I've found out they're doing
this new thing. It's insane. It's just to make more

(25:17):
money idea out of it, and that it already makes
enough money for FIFA. They're going to have every twenty
two minutes a three minutes, which is exact time for
an outbreak, three minute hydration break. No, yes, really three
minute hydration break. The referee is going to blow up.
It's going to kill the flow of a game. Soccer
game has always two halves, forty five minutes. It works,

(25:38):
that's so it's very Americans.

Speaker 4 (25:40):
It's like NFL. They have so much stop in the
play and it just.

Speaker 2 (25:43):
Happens to be three minutes, which is of course a
length of an out at break.

Speaker 1 (25:47):
Three minutes. Region's horrible, isn't it. Yeah, it.

Speaker 2 (25:52):
Will kill the game a bit, really, because over forty
five minutes, so much happens.

Speaker 1 (25:57):
There's a flow of a game happens.

Speaker 7 (25:59):
Do you get an after twenty minutes an.

Speaker 2 (26:00):
Say, three minutes having a smoko, there's a barist going
to come on with the car three minutes. It does
get pretty hot over there, but they played the World
Cup in many hot countries.

Speaker 1 (26:15):
True guitar doesn't get any hotter than that. No three
minute mysterious break true of us? Who will go? How
can we make even more money than.

Speaker 2 (26:26):
The Maga billions with a hydration break? Okay, well that's
like what a minute? Thirty seconds?

Speaker 1 (26:32):
No three minutes?

Speaker 14 (26:34):
Wow?

Speaker 2 (26:35):
So they can play a load of ads in. So
that's a small thing that's made me good girl?

Speaker 1 (26:39):
What's it for you?

Speaker 3 (26:40):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast?

Speaker 1 (26:44):
What is the thing that chance? You made?

Speaker 2 (26:45):
Small thing of chance? You made Christian for me? I'm
listening to you guys on a holiday in Queensland.

Speaker 1 (26:50):
Thank you, Craig.

Speaker 2 (26:52):
When will these flat earthers up here come to the
twenty first century and adopt daylight savings?

Speaker 3 (26:58):
True?

Speaker 1 (26:58):
True, true, very true, Perth.

Speaker 2 (27:01):
I understand, yes, many hours away, but yeah, you're right,
that doesn't make any sense.

Speaker 1 (27:05):
And don't even get me starting on the adelaide half
an hour?

Speaker 2 (27:07):
Oh pra Where else the world does that happen? Anywhere
else the world? A thirteen minute time difference?

Speaker 7 (27:13):
No, I've never heard of it.

Speaker 1 (27:14):
It's crazy. It is so.

Speaker 4 (27:16):
Australian, unnecessary, like bureaucracy.

Speaker 2 (27:20):
When I moved it, when I found out that camera
was only invented because Sydney and Melbourne couldn't agree who
should be the capital city, so you invented.

Speaker 1 (27:28):
One in the middle of the middle of the bush.

Speaker 2 (27:32):
Christian thing makes me go girl when your ring pool
snaps off, the tin of tomatoes is trying to open.

Speaker 1 (27:38):
And then you've got to go get the knife, right,
get the not I get the knife.

Speaker 7 (27:44):
That's not.

Speaker 1 (27:48):
What are you hold Nana? I get the knife in.

Speaker 2 (27:54):
Rambo And like I said, I watched it too much,
John Wick. Don't have its effect on Patsy? What's the
thing that makes you go girl?

Speaker 6 (28:01):
I can't stand the sound of people handling balloons. Just
it really it's like.

Speaker 1 (28:08):
Fingers to mature board, isn't it? It really is it.
It's squeaking.

Speaker 8 (28:13):
It's like it gets in your ear, some part of
your ear, and I just can't stand it.

Speaker 6 (28:18):
It really makes my teethache.

Speaker 4 (28:20):
I just don't I don't like it.

Speaker 10 (28:22):
I tell you.

Speaker 1 (28:22):
Another thing that makes with that feeling is a touching polystine.

Speaker 6 (28:26):
Oh really, I get that.

Speaker 1 (28:29):
Oh yeah, that makes a squeak as well, the same
as balloons.

Speaker 8 (28:33):
To me, seeing a pitch like whenever I already had
a birthday party, I had to get my husband to
do the balloons.

Speaker 1 (28:40):
I could. I had to actually go out of the house.

Speaker 4 (28:42):
You couldn't even touch the balloon, not stand it.

Speaker 1 (28:44):
Yeah, yeah, if we ever want to wait, pats you
up on the show. It's just how some balloons ready.

Speaker 2 (28:48):
I'm not saying we use them, but how the ready
release them into the news studio helarity will.

Speaker 1 (28:53):
Not issue release the balloons.

Speaker 2 (28:56):
Years ago, for one of my daughter's birthday party, I
actually hired someone to teach me how to do balloon
animal modeling.

Speaker 1 (29:05):
Three hours.

Speaker 2 (29:06):
As I did, I could do three things. I could
do the sausage dog, a giraffe, and a snake, which
is the easiest one.

Speaker 1 (29:13):
You just nothing, okay the kids that didn't.

Speaker 2 (29:17):
Like just a twisted thing, then balloon mod grumpy man,
bring what's it for you? I think it makes you
go girl.

Speaker 9 (29:31):
I hate especially when you're at a pub you order
a cheeseburger and they don't properly melt the cheese on
the paddy and it's half melted or worse, they haven't
even made any attempt at all to melt it.

Speaker 4 (29:43):
No, you've gone to all this effort. You've got the paddy,
the letter and just thirty more seconds.

Speaker 1 (29:47):
It isn't about the cheese. It's about the melt.

Speaker 4 (29:49):
It is because a hard cheese, unmelted cheese flashing with them.

Speaker 1 (29:55):
You don't want to taste the hard, crumby cheese. And
it's not hard to go. I'm not going to pizza.
You don't want hard cheese on that, Yes.

Speaker 4 (30:02):
Exactly, And what takes how how long is that going
to take you to actually fix that? It's the only
thing I send back. I never send things now.

Speaker 1 (30:08):
You don't send you back?

Speaker 7 (30:09):
Yes, yes, cheese, little lord.

Speaker 1 (30:16):
To him the boy.

Speaker 9 (30:19):
Way.

Speaker 1 (30:20):
Your generation screwed.

Speaker 7 (30:22):
Your generation.

Speaker 1 (30:24):
Generation knocked out Hitler, and that's not my generation. I
can't own that.

Speaker 7 (30:31):
You can kno, you can knot some bloody cheese.

Speaker 1 (30:34):
It's probably so many of your generation. I'm melting the cheese.
Let's go back there now, find out. That's how we
call this thing that makes you go grow? What's it
for you?

Speaker 2 (30:45):
Over seventy five three one o four three listeners. If
he's sounding a bit testy today in here, it is,
and I tell you why. It's because the next half
an hour this show.

Speaker 1 (30:54):
Will do something. It is horrible. At a quiz ifact,
I might think it's the first one this year.

Speaker 2 (31:00):
Everything has led to this in the last four shows,
to damage the great work we've done this year with
a horrible quiz. I still have shudders years ago when
suddenly I hadn't checked the quiz questions written by a
team member, and suddenly I heard myself asking out loud
what color is Shrek? And they made a vow to
myself we must never do quizzes. However, I forgot the vow.

(31:22):
I forgot my vowels that he's already knew my vows.
The quiz is coming in twenty minutes. That's the thing
that makes me googur, not just that Barry Klaus is
hosting it as well. We couldn't make it on a
very radio reverb. We couldn't make it any harder to
have a good thing in twenty minutes time. So enjoy
the next tournaments of all.

Speaker 3 (31:41):
Get stunk Up The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 2 (31:46):
Things make You Go Goo one and how far this
comes from Mum Natalie. When I finally sat down for
the first time that day and then my family say, Mum,
where is blah blah blah blah blah. I have to
get up and go to the said room, point it out,
obviously where it is. That is the mum's plight. Yes,
it's always the mums.

Speaker 1 (32:01):
That get bothered. His dad's can never find anything. Yeah,
you know it's right. This is so true.

Speaker 2 (32:06):
The other day it was trying to find the ladder,
and again marriage that my wife, we.

Speaker 1 (32:10):
Must have packed the ladder away. She goes, not a
box big enough.

Speaker 2 (32:14):
So where is the ladder? She goes in the garage. Looked,
she goes. We go into the garage together. That's right
there in the middle. And I said, who opens the
ladder and leaves it like that open where you can't
see it? Not closed, clearly a ladder. Now it's now
it's blendid. It's Blendi scamouflage. That's crafty, Sarah, crafty, Jody.

(32:37):
This is a great thing, small thing, big rangely paying
for something, the money comes out of your account instantly. However,
if you need to get a refund for the same thing,
why you go toway like sevent to ten, Jody. That's
a great great observations a scab, isn't it, Christian? When
you're opening any box of anything eg e g. Great
use of the eg or even I E. Saladas and

(32:58):
it says lift to open. There's no lift on a
cardboard box. It should say rip open.

Speaker 1 (33:04):
Yeah, get them under it. Come on, they cannot be
re else. Christian.

Speaker 2 (33:09):
The thing that makes me get girl when I'm in
my uniform at work name badge and all customer walks

The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 2 (44:20):
Yesterday we had some great stories. Did you have to
break in? Or were you breaking out? And then when
rock climbing in her housemate didn't leave the keys out,
so she had to climb up her apartment building to
the first floor to break into our own apartment. Rose
broke into a stranger's car back in the seventies who.

Speaker 1 (44:37):
Were double parked. That's a great story of that.

Speaker 2 (44:41):
Paul got locked out and found out if it was
more expensive glass of power of the locksmith. It was
the locksmith, so he smashed his window with some outdoor
weights and then got it repaired. Ben left us this
voicemail as well about breaking and breaking out.

Speaker 7 (44:55):
This is my broke into the place story.

Speaker 15 (44:57):
At the time I was working as a shepherd a motel,
and it was during that period where the kitchen's closed.
So I was still in a little bit of prep
in the kitchen, and I had the front of house
manager come in, going, I've locked the master keys into
the ballroom.

Speaker 1 (45:11):
Can you help?

Speaker 15 (45:12):
So I've grabbed a butter knife, gone up to the door,
put the butter knife between the doorframe and the door,
jiggled it around, and within about to say ten seconds,
had popped the lock open. The face that she had
given me was absolutely priceless.

Speaker 5 (45:26):
Priceless the button knife, Nicole Christian. About thirty years ago,
when I was a UNI student, my then boyfriend Brackets
now husband, dropped by my unit when I wasn't home.
Instead of just leaving a note on the door saying
he'd come around, he decided to scale the three meter
high brick wall of my unit, break in through the

(45:47):
kitchen window, which was open, and leave the note.

Speaker 1 (45:51):
He dropped in. Creep Aloui's done that.

Speaker 2 (45:58):
He didn't break in. He stood under the balcony the
way a gentleman should do, calling up to Juliet. She
wasn't cooling down behind behind you. I broke in, Get
out you creep. The capulets. Can't trust them. I gave
him a key to the unit after that. Nicole Shelley
This story from Shelley's in Goodall. I was twenty weeks pregnant,

(46:19):
So twenty weeks, starting to get the bump, and living
forty five minutes from my parents. What happened the hour?
I was visiting for a few days, so I left
to return to work, thinking two hours with plenty of time.
But boy, I was wrong. When I got home, I
realized I'd left my house key at my parents' house.
I looked for an open window or door jackpot. The
kitchen window was just opening up about two meters off
the ground. I managed to heat myself in. When it

(46:42):
was time to leave, I climbed onto the sink and
halfway out of the window. You can gets what happened here?
My right knee popped out. Oh, no question. I was
now stuck half in half out. That's tomorrow's phone in
half in.

Speaker 1 (46:55):
Half out.

Speaker 2 (46:57):
With work starting in twenty minutes and a family forty
five minutes away, I had cool work to explain that
I was stuck half in half out of my parents' window.
I'd love to do a phone in one day about
amazing reasons. You had to cool work to say you
were late? Why were you running late?

Speaker 1 (47:18):
Stuck half in half out of your mom and dad's window?
Oh okay, well look get just when you can. Is
that Marie? Yes, she's dronk again.

Speaker 2 (47:26):
I had to cool work to explain, and then I
had to call my family to get me down. I'd
never ever forgotten my keys since then, lesson learned Shelly.

Speaker 1 (47:34):
So were you breaking in or were you breaking out?
What's the story? We've got thousand dollars to give her.

Speaker 2 (47:38):
This week for our last ever Cooler of the week,
and indeed this year thirteen fifty five twenty two, and
Patsy saw a great pub cat over the weekend.

Speaker 1 (47:49):
I love a pub that's got a dog or a cat.

Speaker 8 (47:51):
Oh this cat was tremendous. She was she say, she's
a shady black and white.

Speaker 1 (47:57):
And we were at cat. Oh beautiful. Someone's been smashing
some frothies, Oh pussy cat. Pussy Cat had.

Speaker 6 (48:04):
The greatest name. Its name was VB. She's just priceless.

Speaker 1 (48:10):
But you had to walk over this thing to get
to the bar, and it was not budging.

Speaker 2 (48:14):
It would not move about you to good photos having
a good old kip there right in the middle of
the middle of a rug.

Speaker 1 (48:21):
Dad happy as happy as Larry.

Speaker 8 (48:23):
Did not even flinch as you walked, you know, approached.
It was like, nah, I am not moving either. Long
here it was the most beautiful girl.

Speaker 2 (48:31):
A resident dog or a cat in a in a
restaurant or bar. It's a talking point, is yes, and
you go it reached the ice.

Speaker 1 (48:42):
Yeah, it's a good thing to have and it feels
homely as well. I guess what it is too.

Speaker 2 (48:47):
Yes, there's a great pub in Sydney that's got a
cockatoo called Georgie.

Speaker 1 (48:51):
Really yeah, yeah, Georgie the friend and hand.

animal names. I love to scroll the RSPCA when I
feel a little sad and read the names like mister
Roger Boris, Professor fluffy Pants.

Speaker 1 (50:12):
The names cheer me up.

Speaker 7 (50:14):
That is adorable.

Speaker 1 (50:15):
That's so cute.

Speaker 2 (50:16):
And if you're thinking about getting a pet this year,
please do your research. It is a big thing to
take on a pet as a pet owner. It is
a huge commitment financially and also emotionally as well. But
if you do do your research and want one, go
to the RSPCA. There's all these beautiful pets with really
sad stories. And also if you go to pat the RSPCA,
it's a story about rescuing a pet as well. It

(50:38):
adds to the story of your pet as well. We
do a lot of work for the RSPCA here in
Victoria and they're an amazing place run by very very
very stressed people as well. There's so many pets they're
taking in every day. But please, if you're going to
get on this Christmas, make sure you do your research
and go to the RSPCA get a pet from there.
There's loads of great ones there. Professor fluffy Pants might
be there right now with Boris and Roger the gang.

Speaker 2 (52:48):
I'm good Robert? Okay, So breaking in or breaking out?

Speaker 1 (52:50):
Which way? Breaking in? What happened?

Speaker 16 (52:55):
This is about fifteen years ago? We were making friends
with my daughter's child care group, so she was about
two years old at the time. We went around their
house for a few drinks. We had a few more drinks.
We had a few more drinks. We ended up going home,
taking home in the strollers, and when we got home
we found that we'd left our keys behind at our
new friend's house. Rather than go back and get the keys,

(53:16):
we decided that it was a little too emotional. We
needed to get in the house quickly, so I went
around the back of the house, took a ladder, broke
the glass in one of the windows, and got in.
We all went to bed, fast asleep, passed out. About
two hours later, we were woken by a talk shining
in our faces in the bed. The police had come

(53:37):
in the house. They've been banging on the door outside.
They'd been ringing the bell. They'd be looking around trying
to find a way in. Our next door neighbor had
done the right thing, called the police and said somebody's
broken in. They couldn't raise us, so they came through
the house. So the police broke into our house.

Speaker 1 (53:55):
You've broken the law. We are the law, Robert. That's
a great story. What a way to be woken up
to the middle of the night hung over as well.

Speaker 16 (54:06):
There's a little bit more to that as well. My
wife were starting naked at the time when we were dead,
so she set up bolt upright said to the police
are you really the police? And they went yes, She
went okay, and they went back to sleeping.
