the clothing retailers, like the Grinch, the Christmas Grinch.

Speaker 3 (01:59):

you had to have them thirty centimeters apart.

Speaker 3 (02:33):
Right.

Speaker 5 (02:33):
It looks fantastic because he had down one of the spoutings,
you know, the guttering on one side. He had gaffer tape.

Speaker 2 (02:45):
I tell you what I do appreciate, though, people that
do make the effort with the house on the outside,
because it is lovely when you drive around in the
evening and they're all glowing and lit up. There's something
really pleasing about.

Speaker 1 (02:56):
Now. I've got those gutter clips, Patsy, but I'm.

Speaker 2 (02:59):
Telling you mine are not some sort of military precision
thirty centimeters that it would drive you and him nutstay
really respose now hap hazard and chaotic. Also, it sounds
like he knowses gutters. Now I need to clean my
gutters out. But I'm pretty sure I remember one night
falling in front of the TV, then waking up there

(03:20):
was some sort of infomercial on for some sort of
robotic weasel you could put in the gutter. Turn it
on and it goes along CLEAs vacuum cleaner, robo vacuum.
But you shove it in the It looks like a

I didn't imagine it. It exists.

Speaker 3 (05:01):
It's the I Robot twelve five oh one.

All new products have like an eye in front of it.

Speaker 2 (05:08):

Like imagine you just you go up on your laddy,
you chuck it in the gutter, yep, and then it
just goes.

Speaker 7 (05:51):
Yes, exactly. It's sort of like it looks a bit
like a tank, like an army tank.

Speaker 1 (05:54):
Would have to because it's going to shunt the leaves
out the way.

Speaker 3 (05:57):
Yes, it's got a big sort of laser spout.

Speaker 4 (06:31):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
All last week on the show, we were asking if
you could donate anything five dollars, ten dollars, twenty dollars,
whatever you can get if it is amazing for an
amazing charity, very small charity, but do very important work
here in Melbourne called Backpacks for the Kids. And so
what they do is they will give these children who
are taken from a dangerous home situation a backpack of
essential items in them. And these kids often have nothing

(06:57):
when they're removed from home, and so it's it's basically
sounds like a blanket in there. It's panics, papers, it's toothbrushes,
and so many people actually have worked in chart protection
area has actually you cannot underestimate, we can fully understand
those kids generally have nothing, and so when someone gives
them a backpack with a load of essential items, and
actually the glee on these kids' faces, they get excited

(07:20):
that someone somewhere still cares about them. So it's amazing.
In a week we started doing this last Monday at
eight o'clock on the show, and it's just under one
hundred and eighty five thousand dollars, So thank you so much.
We're stunned, absolutely stunned. Last week I thought it would
be really amazing if we could raise one hundred thousand
dollars across the week. It's one hundred yeah, just under

(07:41):
one hundred and eighty five thousand dollars in a week,
so thank you very much. Who's donated. If you do
want to donate, you haven't heard about it when you
missed the show last week.

Speaker 1 (07:49):
Still trying to do that.

Speaker 2 (07:50):
The Christian o'connellshow dot com dot au Candies, thank you
very much, great course, thanks for bringing the charity to
our attention. I've contacted them about doing some volunteer work
that's on candies. Thank you, Linda, Eric, Katie Robin. If
you need volunteers, I'd love to help. I'm seventy two
but can still dance to mac arena.

Speaker 1 (08:10):

Do au you get the option there to leave a message.
Please leave a message, let us know your name and
where you are, and it's just so we can say
thank you on the show. So if there's still plenty
of time, it'd be really lovely if by the end
of this week it could be over two hundred thousand
dollars whatever you can give. Each backpack costs a charity
one hundred dollars, but the charity they work so hard.

(09:46):
Every one dollar you donate they turn into four dollars
worth of volume, so of value. So if you're donating
ten bucks, they get forty okay, and that's almost half
a backpack. So every five dollars, every ten dollars really
does make a difference. There's an awful lot of that money,
that one hundred and eighty four thousand that has come
from a lot of our generous listence giving ten dollars

(10:07):
or twenty dollars, whatever you can give is greatly appreciated.

Speaker 4 (14:34):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 2 (14:38):
We really should play like all the songs that get mangled.
We should play like three or four of them. It's
a whole way to treat great artists, isn't it on
a music station?

Speaker 1 (14:47):
Billy Joel the River of Dreams.

Speaker 2 (14:49):
Thank you very much for donations that have just come
into backpacks of it kids in the last fifteen minutes.
That is you, Kylie and Millie, thank you very much,
Christine fourteen minutes ago, and then this amazing one.

Speaker 1 (15:02):
Ewen Christian.

Speaker 2 (15:03):
I'm sixteen and I earn eighty three dollars and forty
seven cents per week. This week, I'm donating my paycheck
to support these kids. My mum reminded me that I
have a toothbrush and underpants, so I'm going to donate
for an entire backpack. You and that is that's a
really big act of generosity.

Speaker 1 (15:21):
What incredible young man you are. You and thank you
very much for doing that.

Speaker 2 (15:25):
Yeah, before it came into that, I watched the highlights
of the Dutch Grand Prix and I'm a recent new
convert to the Grand Prix, right, I can't be doing
watching a whole thing.

Speaker 3 (15:34):
Yeah, yea god too long.

Speaker 2 (15:38):
Sorry if one fans I know Tino who is on
the show, just stared at me.

Speaker 3 (15:41):
Aghasp. It is true und five and there's lots of crashes.

Speaker 1 (15:52):
But yeah, five hours.

Speaker 7 (15:55):
And there's always some ungodly hour as well, so I
start at eleven pm.

Speaker 2 (15:59):
Yes, yes, what they need to do is it needs
to be livened up.

Speaker 3 (16:03):
Now.

Speaker 2 (16:03):
There are a lot of the Grand Prixs that are
actually right in the middle of like in the middle
of the city codes like that, and obviously we've got
Albert Park here. But actually what I'd like to post
is that next year's living up the Melbourne Grand Prix
is that actually they put it out into driving onto
the streets of Melbourne. I think it'd be a lot
more interesting from global f one fans to see them
navigate like roundabouts. Ye, hoturns and I just have to

(16:27):
go through a drive through bottle shop, jump out and.

Speaker 1 (16:31):
Get a slab of beer. Tricky, justlive and it all up.
The other thing I love is like they can chat
to that old mate.

Speaker 2 (16:40):
Is on that sort of intercom like producer Caitlin sort
of microphone when they go box box off here coming
now box bux BOXX here we're changing ties now that
five on two slicks they.

Speaker 1 (16:50):
Can chat to their guy.

Speaker 2 (16:52):
That is happening in other sports where we get to
hear what they're saying.

Speaker 7 (16:56):
To the coaches, like Scott Pendlebury talking like bloody, I'm
having a nightmare out.

Speaker 1 (17:01):
Today, can I just have a rest? I want to
hear those conversations.

Speaker 4 (17:07):
Christian O'Connell's podcast.

Speaker 1 (17:10):
Out of the weekend.

Speaker 2 (17:12):
We were moving our twenty one year old daughter Ruby,
and with the moving day was Saturday and it was
like intimate and rain and you're going to the big
van that we had to use for it and carrying
stuff and while we're driving around North Melbourne, I suddenly
thought there was a guy who was navigating who was
driving and also juggling a Melways Oh wow, old school

(17:36):
instant legend, instant legend. I was just like wow, it
just to be back to how it used to be
before we outsourced everything to our phones and how you
know when I used to drive around London, a big
city like that, same as Melbourne. Here, you'd have this
aid to z the street atlas and it'd be quite stressful.
Sometimes you'd have to pull over because you were going

(17:58):
off the edge of a page.

Speaker 1 (17:59):
Yes, and it felt like you're going off the edge
of the.

Speaker 2 (18:01):
World seventy four onto the top north and oh god,
I haven't got that big covered and I haven't got
great tim Melbourne or great London. Sometimes I would write
and post it notes the directions rather than having to
like the old mel ways mic this guy saw on
Saturday who was actually driving looking around and with one
eye down on real time, in real time, I'm not

(18:24):
sure that's legal level.

Speaker 7 (18:26):
They're probably well, there's probably no more laws about that anymore.
No one's using a mill.

Speaker 1 (18:31):
Want to know do they still publish those?

Speaker 3 (18:33):
Surely good question, because.

Speaker 2 (18:36):
Obviously, you know, years and years ago you'd have like
the Tom Toms and an actual do remember that? And
then now it's now it's not just standing on phones,
doesn't it. We Google maps or for the crazy people
at my wife ways, which is the most aggressive driving. Oh,
we can shave off seven seconds if we drive through
these people's gardens.

Speaker 3 (18:55):
It is.

Speaker 1 (18:55):
It's all like jerky. I left right here, right here.

Speaker 2 (18:58):
Left here, left here, just to sort of save ten seconds.

Speaker 1 (19:01):
Off with ways. My wife uses ways. It's crazy.

Speaker 8 (19:05):
My old man used to love the Scottish accent of
the woman.

Speaker 1 (19:08):
He used to Yeah, you always have it on the
Scottish woman.

Speaker 3 (19:13):
She's talking. What how could you even understand the Scottish?
You can still get in melways. You can buy them
actually at office works.

Speaker 1 (19:22):
How much does a malways cost? Have a guess, I
don't know. Fifty bucks, big big old thick street apples.

Speaker 3 (19:28):
Fifty seven bus wow. Wow.

Speaker 2 (19:32):
So today I want to know kids today will never
know because to kids today, like my daughters, you know,
they can both drive, but they don't know where anything is.
If I say hey, can you can you drop me
at so and so, they're like, where's that?

Speaker 1 (19:44):
What's just so?

Speaker 2 (19:45):
For that way two suburbs of that, I'd have to
look on my semi address, and I have to look
on Google maps. They don't have the neural pathways that
we used to have to form when you had to
look around someone understand where you were. Like even now,
I don't think i'd be very good giving direction to somebody.
Haven't you got a phone? Yes, oh, I get my
phone up and.

Speaker 1 (20:04):
Go go theft right down here. I've looked on this
computer game.

Speaker 7 (20:07):
They wouldn't I understand having to pull over and ask
someone in the town for directions.

Speaker 3 (20:13):
How do I get to hear? They go?

Speaker 1 (20:14):
And they needs to have.

Speaker 2 (20:15):
To know the local sort of landmarks to say. And
when you go to town, all of you've got that's it. Yeah,
you've gone too far. You go to the red line pub,
turn around, you go to the survey. They were the
unofficial gatekeepers of local knowledge.

Speaker 1 (20:34):
That must be now that I think.

Speaker 2 (20:38):
They look at you if you're mad, if you went
I'm lost. I've got one hand on the panic one.
There's no money left in the till overnight. All right,
Kids today will never know, Patsy, what's it for you?

Speaker 6 (20:51):
I got a.

Speaker 5 (20:51):
Text from school on Friday and I looked at it
and I thought, why do I need to be across this?

Speaker 6 (20:57):
This is ridiculous.

Speaker 5 (20:59):
To let me know that the power had gone off
for an hour and that classes were kind of disrupted,
but all had been restored to normal sort of schedule
and not to worry.

Speaker 6 (21:11):
And I thought, why do I need to be across this,
that is fine.

Speaker 5 (21:15):
Whereas when we were at school, we'd have floods and
bushfires and god knows what and mum.

Speaker 6 (21:26):
None the wiser.

Speaker 5 (21:29):
Fire at school, someone put out my mom would not
have a clue if we were sick and the teacher
had to call for her to come and get us
unless she was none of that, if only if she
was home and on the landline. If she wasn't home,
forget it.

Speaker 2 (21:44):
You were like, would never call your parents, No, no,
there was no coming to get you if you weren't ill.

Speaker 1 (21:49):
You just waited for the school bunch, or you sat
in your seat.

Speaker 3 (21:53):
Yeah, just sitting there.

Speaker 2 (21:54):
And also it was just so unpleasant in that medical
bit anyway, some terrifying elderly nurse there. You probably got
fired from nursing anywhere. Struck off, You were like, I
just stuck it out with here. I think I've got
numonic fever, but I.

Speaker 1 (22:07):
Just I just sit here soil myself.

Speaker 3 (22:10):
I had three.

Speaker 8 (22:10):
Stitches in my head once because I'd smashed my head
on the roundabout at school, and I waited hours for
my parents because they couldn't track them down.

Speaker 3 (22:18):
I just sit there and then looking at my head,
going Oh my god.

Speaker 2 (22:22):
Yeah, it was a disaster, but my parents kids would
never know that now. I remember when I was thirteen,
I was we were playing in a taken on a
local really rough school as well, in a hockey game
and someone raised the stick too high and I split
my lip open. I had to go to the hospital, right,
so the pee teacher drove me there, so I literally
was bleeding. I had to have like eleven stitches. When
I got to the hospital. On the way, he stopped

(22:43):
a newsagent.

Speaker 1 (22:44):
I'm like pleading. I'm in the front seat of his car.

Speaker 2 (22:47):
He goes to get a newspaper and some cigarettes and
then carries on going, you're right, and we might be
we might be there a while, so I just need
to have something to do in smoke. And I didn't
even think that was odd. I gave it moan to
my parents. It's just like, yeah, it's actually I've inconvenienced
to with these stitches.

Speaker 1 (23:04):
Shame on me.

Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 2 (23:18):
Kids today would never know Tell me what you don't
get anymore now with mobile phones. The joy of slamming
the phone down on somebody, it's not the same now
with that they don't know you just tap that button.
There's no big that really showing clunking on somebody. You
know that in movies Now Now it's not the same

(23:38):
when someone hangs up on that phone. It's there's nowhere
near as traumatic. Thank you very much. All these are
coming in right now. Christian kids today will never know
the challenges of dial up internet. If mum pits up
the phone, the Internet, you're right, just cut off from
that big ass landlight.

Speaker 4 (23:55):
You know.

Speaker 1 (23:55):
That's when the Internet wasn't coming from satellites.

Speaker 2 (23:57):
It was coming through an actual line in the ground,
a land line land an actual land line.

Speaker 1 (24:04):
Now it's it's invisible. It's satellites above us.

Speaker 2 (24:07):
And you remember just having to re connect every four
hours and argue about the cost of the phone call.

Speaker 1 (24:11):
This is costing me a farm, I need to go on.

Speaker 2 (24:18):
Do you remember how exciting it was the wild daysim
They used to call the information Super high one Web,
the World Wide Web, and it was always w W
W forward slash slash when not many forward slashes or
backslashes in my life this radio station store.

Speaker 1 (24:39):
Kids today we'll joy of Gold FM.

Speaker 4 (24:43):
Christian.

Speaker 2 (24:44):
You talk about kids not knowing what the melways is, well,
fire rescue Victoria still relies on using old school paper
melways to root fire calls. Whoa your uber eats has
more modern tech than the fire service?

Speaker 1 (24:59):
Ken? Is that right?

Speaker 7 (25:01):
Like, not not as like a deliberate choice, but just
because they're not fund that can't be right?

Speaker 2 (25:07):
Ken?

Speaker 1 (25:07):
Is that right? Christian?

Speaker 2 (25:09):
Kids today will never know the anguish of having to
run in from a commercial break for food drinks, or
to go to the toilet and gim there you go.

Speaker 3 (25:16):
It's back on jumping over the.

Speaker 2 (25:28):
Remember the only time I ever saw my mum lose
is I accent? Recorded over that episode of Dallas where
you found it?

Speaker 3 (25:34):
Who shot JR? Oh my god?

Speaker 1 (25:37):
She threatened to drop me off at children's home and
rightly so.

Speaker 2 (25:41):
It was the worst thing you could do was accidentally
record over something. You know, you'd be watching your favorite
show and suddenly the football would.

Speaker 8 (25:49):
Come on, or if you recorded the ads, Yes you're
smart enough to stop it.

Speaker 2 (25:56):
Yes you need have incredible eye hand coordinations to do that.
That was a high level Christian kids today will never
know the anxiety of having to give a photographic film
to the local chemist and then waiting for a week
for the photos to develop of that wedding you went
to him, only discover half on the crap.

Speaker 1 (26:13):
Showing you'd have that red eye. They were just out
of shots. Yeah, yeah, I get a friend of mine.

Speaker 2 (26:20):
It used to have a Saturday job developing that film,
and we used to always go out on a Sunday night.

Speaker 1 (26:25):
He would bring copies of some of the dodgy photos.
It was amazing.

Speaker 2 (26:33):
Spread times they were in the park just looking at
that someone had brought this in taking photos.

Speaker 1 (26:38):
Of that probably immral just so much fun. I missed
those days. What CV kids today will never know the
joy off.

Speaker 7 (26:47):
Kids will never know the joy of having to become
a small time criminal just to listen to music.

Speaker 3 (26:52):
In the two thousands, Oh yes, you would have to
go all.

Speaker 7 (26:55):
Through like the black market of the Internet, which was
like LimeWire or Kazar Napster Napster.

Speaker 3 (27:01):
Yes, and you would never know there.

Speaker 7 (27:02):
It was Russian roulette if the file you're downloading is
a virus or the actual song you wanted, and it
was all high illegal, like no one, but it was
the only way to get music as a teenager in
the two thousands, and you'd have to sort of figure out.

Speaker 2 (27:15):
You know when Metallica, they're any embarrassed writers now were
actually trying to get fans of there who just wanted
to stream music arrested.

Speaker 1 (27:23):
Arrested, Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm taking them to court.

Speaker 2 (27:26):
Yes, that was afore the record companies realized if only
they got in there earlier about streaming, before Spotify and
smarter people realized, wait, just let the kids stream. They
just want to stream it. There's so much more money
there as well, Alex, what's it for you? Kids today
will never know.

Speaker 8 (27:40):
When you're starting a new relationship and you've got to
ring the landline and say to the parents, oh, hello,
mister Johnson. Actually get so nervous, Yes, man, I'll just
go and get it for her. I used to kill me.
I used to get so nervous to me too.

Speaker 2 (27:55):
And also when you were in the early days of
like trying to go out with the girl, you would
have to call them in the evening.

Speaker 1 (28:00):
Yes, I used to. This is really sad. I don't
think I've ever said this one.

Speaker 2 (28:04):
I don't think my wife knows just I used to
write down some notes beforehand of talking points. See that
new Raam video. She's so nervous because he used to
go real silent, real quick, and nither of you really
knew what to do.

Speaker 1 (28:23):
Yeah you go uh spand ballet. That bit doesn't work.

Speaker 2 (28:27):

my wife was in the car, and we were just
coming into our street and setting my wife. My wife's

I love this one from Keith Christian Kids today, I
want never know about paper train tickets that you had
to queue at the ticket office at the station platform,
and then he used to be someone on the train
that would pushed the ticket in a stamping machine to
put a whole on your ticket. Christian, I still use
a Meilways and drive a Manu cart. Well done, kids,
So they would never know dialing a number and I

(31:24):
wouldn't score rotary phone getting through six numbers, then dialing
just one wrong number. Hang up, you got to start again, Scottie.

Speaker 1 (31:32):
That's a great one, Christian kids.

Speaker 2 (31:35):
Kids, anyone ever appreciate how genuinely scary Scooby do you usually?
Back it was it was now you've got sore and
hostel these crizzy things. But back in the day Scooby
Doo would scare usd kids, Yes, I would have gone
away with it. It was always the caretaker. Yes, every
second episode it was a angry caretaker. Then pesky meddling kids.

(31:58):
This is an interesting one from Vanessa Christian. We had
the best of the supermodels in the eighties and nineties.
They worked really hard to get where they had to
be without any social media.

Speaker 1 (32:07):
They wore the walks. It was very hard to do that.

Speaker 2 (32:10):
We had Claudia Schiffer, El mcphish and Linda of Vandalista,
Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford, Vanessa, this is incredible because I've
looked all of these have been spelt correctly. This takes
a long time to put that message out. Thank you
very much. Christian kids today would never know about having
to give three rings on the home phone then hanging
up to let know that you've got home. It's safely.

(32:32):
Kids today wouldn't know what aero program was. I used
to go to the post office to buy them every
fortnight to send to my granny in Scotland right up
until about nineteen ninety nine.

Speaker 4 (32:42):
Christian O'Connell show on podcast, Welcome.

Speaker 2 (32:46):
To the Christian O'Connell Show. Having a lovely weekend. Christian
kids today would never know about pen pals. They're a
thing of the past.

Speaker 1 (32:54):
You know what. That's so true, let's bring back.

Speaker 2 (32:59):
Yeah, we have listeners all over Australia and obviously next
year hopefully even more. Let's start marketing now through pen
and paper and stamps, just letters.

Speaker 1 (33:10):
Dear Dave in w A. Looking forward to speaking to

Speaker 2 (33:25):
We got an email last week and people who were
donating in London in America for backpacks a bit kids,
they would love an actual not an email from us,
a letter written.

Speaker 6 (33:35):
Yes, not on a typewriter or computer.

Speaker 1 (33:38):
It's got one of those.

Speaker 3 (33:40):
Well you know, I murder she wrote, It's going to
be proper at school.

Speaker 2 (33:46):
This is one where I'm going to put away my olivetty.
I actually might use my corona for this one.

Speaker 3 (33:54):
Did you use typewriters at school or is that before.

Speaker 1 (33:59):
In and something called pare paper.

Speaker 5 (34:03):
We did typing lessons at school in your ten Yes, yeah,
I was on the old IBM loved it.

Speaker 3 (34:13):
It's a whole year when I.

Speaker 1 (34:14):
Moved to Stroya.

Speaker 2 (34:15):
I can believe that here in this country they gave
you a license if you knew how to use a
pay It's basic in the UK, not not really worth
getting a.

Speaker 1 (34:23):
License to.

Speaker 2 (34:26):
The wall. We've got a very smart kid then how
to use one of these and this little cutting edge thing,
it's the future of communication.

Speaker 1 (34:34):
It's called a big biro. All right.

Speaker 2 (34:38):
So Father's Day is this Sunday, and everyone can agree
Father's Day does not have the impact of Mother's Day.

Speaker 3 (34:47):
Even when you just said it then I was like,
oh yeah that day.

Speaker 2 (34:51):
And even I heard my wife say to my daughter's
last week, Hey, you know, don't forget it's Father's Day.

Speaker 1 (34:57):
You have got that?

Speaker 3 (34:58):
Have you got that?

Speaker 2 (34:59):
And actually I've got it in my calendar. Let's let's
put it in now. And look I was in.

Speaker 1 (35:03):
The other room. I was like, my god, this is
this horrendous.

Speaker 2 (35:05):
They were like, I don't know what he wants, but
wherever he was just wanted to be easy for one
ever bids there'll be an inconvenience.

Speaker 1 (35:12):
That guy wouldn't want that one hour of the year
and understood in past his news.

Speaker 2 (35:19):
So did I hear that right that Dann Murphy is
expecting a seventy percent increase in sales this week for
Father's Day.

Speaker 5 (35:26):
Just on Sunday alone, Cole's is going to sell nearly
like two million bottles of red wine.

Speaker 1 (35:32):
What does that say? What I know about him is
he needs numbing.

Speaker 2 (35:36):
Yeah, Dad needs a numbing agent just to take the
edge off his existential angst of being a dad.

Speaker 7 (35:43):
And mothers have a wide gifts. But Dad, it's like
everyone's getting wine.

Speaker 2 (35:48):
Just what does that say about the broad spectrum of
Dad's interest? Or how long do you know about Just
get him some booze, saying to drink his way through
that and try some old photos of days that are
never coming back anyway.

Speaker 1 (36:01):
Listen, let's keep it light this week, Dad's.

Speaker 2 (36:03):
This is my public service for all of our dads
this week.

Speaker 3 (36:08):
And once what a dad mean? Something better?

Speaker 7 (36:12):
Dance and he I'm asking you so calling and tell.

Speaker 2 (36:18):
Me, all right, Dad's what do you actually want for
Father's Day? We have a thousand dollars a day in
dad currency. That's a million a million dad bucks.

Speaker 3 (36:28):
No, no, no. Last year, one of.

Speaker 2 (36:30):
My kids told me that I when it's Mother's Day,
my wife obviously, and Rudy so gets lavish gifts.

Speaker 1 (36:38):
Not so last year for me.

Speaker 2 (36:40):
My wife apparently just said this is set a budget
fifty bucks Chris Kringle. So is this someone leaving the
office you don't like?

Speaker 3 (36:49):
She puss the hat around.

Speaker 9 (36:52):
That's a nice bottle of wine of Damn Murphy's Anna
Maca's on the way there. Yeah, I'll be happy with
that this year, you know, heaven bet it's any inconvenience.

Speaker 1 (37:05):
So I've got a thousand dollars a day for Dad's.
What do you actually want?

Speaker 2 (37:09):
You can call in kids and tell us what would
your dad love, if you even know what he would like.
Also mums and calling the behalf of their husbands. And
I'm guessing that the majority of calls this week, I
hope you prove wrong, simply going to be from Dad's
awkwardly calling in can have the money to get whatever
it is. I think, well, I think those are. I
think we're going to be depressed doing this. That most

(37:31):
of the calls from Dad's having a call in, like
their kids are busy at the moment, or they're just
coming by them to speech to you. Either way, it's
all good. It's one thousand dollars a day. We really
want to treat the dads. Give me a call now
the lines are open.

Speaker 1 (37:44):
