Got anything dead?

Speaker 2 (00:02):
Hey, this is the Christian O'Connell show.

Speaker 3 (00:06):
Podcast, Christian O'Connell's show. Come on in, pats Hey.

Speaker 4 (00:13):
I was just putting my glasses on. It's been a
big weekend. Hey boys, you can still talk. I got
to do one thing at.

Speaker 3 (00:22):
Isn't that small way? You don't know where it is?
You need your being?

Speaker 5 (00:25):
Well, you didn't know who was talking to you.

Speaker 3 (00:28):
It's a familiar sounding voice. Are we going to be okay, Patsy?

Speaker 4 (00:33):
I'm not quite sure. The wheels are starting to fall off,
but we'll get there.

Speaker 3 (00:36):
How was the Bohemian weekend? If you've got full bohemia
now you don't even use glasses.

Speaker 4 (00:42):
I had the best weekend this weekend. So spoke to
about one hundred women at the Bohemian Summer Festival, also
at the Land and you know it was what it
did was it instilled in me the very reason why
I did rage against the menopause the podcast, because there
is such an unquenchable thirst from women to a talk

(01:06):
about perimenopause and menopause b feel supported and heard. And
that's exactly what happened Saturday. And in a way I
almost felt Sad's not the right word. But I just
ge women have been let down by us not talking
about this. It's not fair and it needs to end
and we need to talk about it. So and I'm

(01:28):
just helping to facilitate that in a small way.

Speaker 3 (01:31):
So it was absolutely you actually get in front of
everyone who you're talking to on the podcast.

Speaker 4 (01:36):
It was really really brilliant, and a lot of them
listeners and they love the show and it was just
so beautiful to feel supported and it's as much cathartic
for me, I think as it is for them. And
you know what else it did was it helped me
sort of map out my course for the rest of
this year of where I want to take it, where
I think there's needs and it was just great gross

(02:00):
global tour. I don't know about that, Jack, but you know,
women want information. They were just like bees to honey,
and we need it and I'm going to help.

Speaker 3 (02:10):
And Patties a queen Bee queen right in the middle
of that nest. Yes, And so people don't up to speed,
then tell us about the tell them about the podcast
and where they can find it. Pasts, because you do
great work on that and I think it's amazing. Now
you're getting in front of people, and so when did
you do? Q and A? Were they talking to you?

Speaker 4 (02:27):
Yeah, it was just a Q and A. It was
just like a women's circle. It was fantastic And I
was really nervous at the start because I thought, Gee,
I hope these women want to speak, because I don't
know if I can speak about this for an hour.
But my goodness, they were just lining up to share
their experiences, their lived experience, and it was it was
just fantastic. So a lot of them had already heard

(02:50):
the podcast, some hadn't, and we're going to download it.
So it's on the iHeart network or wherever you get
your pod casts. It's called Rage Against the Metopause. The
first series is up there, there's ten episodes, and the
second series is on the way. I've already started working
on that for the release in the next few months.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
I'm Patsy a Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 3 (03:12):
Christian O'Connell's show. Now listen, team, I need you to
understand something really bad has gone on with my eye
since I last saw you.

Speaker 5 (03:21):
Thank you for acknowledging it, because it's a lot. It's
a lot to look at.

Speaker 3 (03:24):
Yeah, as my wife said, my daughters have said, Patsy,
I don't know what happened, right. I went to bed
absolutely okay on Friday night, and then I woke up
in the morning, and you know, the first thing that
you get up, you don't go and check yourself out
in the mirror. I'm making a cup of tea. Then
im happy to get a toilet. I thought, I'll just
have a quick look, seeing my hair is this morning
the BedHead. Then I'm like, what the hell? Either someone

(03:44):
broke in and punched me in the eye or somebody's
going in there and stung me in the eye. It
was like semi closed and puffy, and that it was
just got worse.

Speaker 5 (03:52):
Yeah, he's left eyes.

Speaker 4 (03:54):
It looks like a Rocky bell bar in there.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
Well.

Speaker 3 (03:56):
I went to a pharmacist yesterday, and first of all,
there was someone sort of young girl in there. For
I could even speak to pharmacists. She said, how can
we help you, Jack? It's clear why I'm there, isn't
it all right? I don't need something for athletes foot
where they find these bozo She was like, how can
we have you? I can barely see the eye you're
talking to my side, So when I go it's about

(04:18):
my eye, and I point it just in case she's
still unclear, and she goes, oh yeah, Like if I
had said it's I need some banish, You're like, you
don't need to worry about that, right, So we need
to talk about your eye. The pharmacist is doing some
pharmacy business, and he's like, looking, you know they have
those little trays, don't they. They put all the meds.

Speaker 5 (04:37):
And this podium where he's more important.

Speaker 3 (04:40):
And he's like he's doing some like pharmacy admin. And
then he looks up at me, then looks again and goes,
oh my god, that's not where you want to hear.
You want to hear, And then he starts going can
you pull the lid? Can you move the lid around?
So that I have to start examining myself, And there's
people behind me as well, you know, just out in
the wild there, and that's sort of corridor of just

(05:01):
illness and you everything else. It's spluttering mine with all
kind of elements, and I'm thinking, whenever's in here isn't good.
Now more I'm opening it's up more bad stuff it's
getting in. I don't think me is some sort of
hydrocortisone cream. He went, do not get this in the eye?
Where do I put it? Then? To help the eye
get better? If you're giving me some kind of lotion

(05:22):
that shouldn't get in the eye, He goes, see, if
you're going to just put it on the lid. I
put it on. It's as you can see, Ja, there's
been it's still a.

Speaker 5 (05:28):
Massive It's been like that since Saturday morning.

Speaker 3 (05:31):
So he said today to go to the discd of
like Specsavers.

Speaker 5 (05:35):
What are they going to do? Get some sunglasses.

Speaker 3 (05:38):
I have actually got sunglasses because we can't carry on
doing the show like this is it?

Speaker 4 (05:42):
Gonkey?

Speaker 3 (05:43):
Tell me there's no gun pump.

Speaker 4 (05:46):
It's like something's bitten.

Speaker 3 (05:48):
No, And I don't think it's pinki, It's not stye,
it's something else. I think something has bitten in there.

Speaker 4 (05:54):
You know, you want to be careful because I wake
up one morning.

Speaker 3 (05:56):
Oh here we go, this is this a horror story?

Speaker 4 (06:00):
I wore stories. Yes, I woke up, looked in the
mirror and very oddly, my right eye was like pointing
to like wasn't at the front, it was pointing to
the side. And I thought, oh my god, I've had
a stroke in my slip. So I got in the shower.
I had a shower, got out and it was forward
and I thought I better go the GP. And I
had what did you what do you mean?

Speaker 3 (06:16):
It was like sort of like pointings.

Speaker 4 (06:18):
Cut to the side of my head.

Speaker 3 (06:20):
One I would be looking at your husband and the
other ones looking for the bus or freaky.

Speaker 4 (06:24):
So I went to the GP and he said, you've
got shingles in your eye. Shingles in neither did I.
I had no idea, So just maybe go to a
GP and just get it. Might obviously not be that.
I'm not doctor, I'm not a GP.

Speaker 3 (06:39):
But you know, you think it's shingles in my eye?

Speaker 4 (06:41):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (06:42):
Come never look at it?

Speaker 6 (06:43):
Is it?

Speaker 3 (06:43):
Exactly?

Speaker 2 (06:43):
Is it?

Speaker 6 (06:43):
Now?

Speaker 3 (06:45):
Was it puffy? What happened to your eye today? With
those glasses? She seems a bit not quite with it today.
She's never coming here once. I don't think she knows
what goes on in here. Thanks, pas, Come on, do
you do that shingles.

Speaker 4 (07:06):
Was all puffy and red like that? Exactly?

Speaker 3 (07:09):
You've actually been no reassurance to me whatsoever.

Speaker 5 (07:11):
You're going to have to lose the eye.

Speaker 3 (07:12):
Mate, Guys, this is the last time we've seen him
with two eyes.

Speaker 2 (07:16):
Thanks pat The Christian o'connall Show.

Speaker 3 (07:19):
Podcast Christian O'Connell's show, Patsy, how was your Friday Valentine?
Did you get up to anything?

Speaker 4 (07:25):
No, not at all? Oh god, no, we got uber Indian,
our best curry.

Speaker 3 (07:33):
Indian Wayne actually come and stay with you India.

Speaker 4 (07:38):
And at about eight o'clock. No, not overly romantic. What
about you?

Speaker 5 (07:44):
Happy Valentine's to each other?

Speaker 4 (07:46):
We did, yes, and a peck on the cheek. Let's
just slap on the backround.

Speaker 3 (07:52):
We siphon off sometimes, pats this little pod. So you
decided to go bowling?

Speaker 5 (07:57):
Proper bowling, Actually that's proper. Apparently they said they were
chopped full on Friday, because.

Speaker 3 (08:06):
Yeah, Bolgans go on Valentine's down, like to bowl together.
So how did he go? So you were taking your
wife on. You've got your three year old son. Yes,
he's running into it.

Speaker 5 (08:16):
He's put using that ramp that the kid he used
to push the bowling ball down, which actually I bet
he loved that. Very accurate and he even beat the.

Speaker 4 (08:24):
Achor oh wow, I.

Speaker 3 (08:27):
Just say that on the you didn't score, you didn't
have to say it. Like that, or even tell us
at all.

Speaker 5 (08:34):
Because the all you have to do is aim at
the ramp in the middle and then it pretty much goes.

Speaker 3 (08:39):
So were you having a popper a proper sort of
bowling competition you and your wife, or because you got
three year old kid there?

Speaker 5 (08:44):
And then he only lasted about six frames before he
gave up on bowling.

Speaker 3 (08:48):
And when did he go?

Speaker 5 (08:48):
He went sat on one of those Daytona machines without
the coins in there, and.

Speaker 3 (08:53):
You couldn't stump to giving him some coins to actually
have a girl on one day, Gordy.

Speaker 5 (08:57):
I actually did get the tokens because I grew up.
Every time I ever went to somewhere that had skill testers,
the game machines, arcade games, we were never allowed to
put money into them. So I thought, oh, you know what,
I'm going to be different to how I grew up.
I'm going to give him the token. So I got
twenty dollars worth of time.

Speaker 3 (09:16):
How is still be on that Daytona.

Speaker 5 (09:18):
Now, that couldn't be more of a waste of money.
Because I tried to get him interested in the skill
testers and he kept going back. He just wanted to
drive in the Daytona machine without it even on Wow?

Speaker 3 (09:29):
Is that the one where they got like the bucket seat,
haven't they in the big he's got.

Speaker 5 (09:33):
The gears give that and he didn't. The loading screen
was enough to save your money there for hours, But
then being Anger and I had to play the little
basketball against each other. He went back to the chocolate
skill tester for twenty dollars and probably got two Turkish
to light chocolates.

Speaker 3 (09:52):
So who won the big bowling thing?

Speaker 5 (09:54):
I won bowling?

Speaker 3 (09:55):
Well done and close games.

Speaker 5 (09:58):
No, so always wow, we find a nicer way to
say it, but you thrashed.

Speaker 3 (10:06):
Yeah, the scoreboard doesn't like doesn't But how does that
create the right climate of love on Valentine's Day? Oh?

Speaker 5 (10:13):
Because the flowers earlier in the day.

Speaker 3 (10:16):
She picked herself.

Speaker 5 (10:18):
But I picked them upon The drinks were flowing were
one drink each because we were driving. We dropped the
low carb eating for the night because the place has
good pizza and chippies.

Speaker 3 (10:33):
You know, there's something about bowling ali food which is great.
I don't know what it is even. It's like a
basic cheese burger in those bowling alleys is somehow better.

Speaker 5 (10:41):
And you got to think we haven't had hot Chips
for a month in the low carb eating. That was good.

Speaker 3 (10:47):
We went out for dinner on Friday night and like
any classy guy, I booked it Friday morning at ten am.
The only spot they had was quarter to five.

Speaker 5 (10:56):
That's when we went bowling.

Speaker 3 (10:57):
We got there, they were actually so out like the
tables and forks. They seemed surprised that they'd even done
it that early. There was no one else there, just
my wife and I. It's perfect.

Speaker 2 (11:08):
The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

Speaker 3 (11:12):
Christian O'Connell's show, I'm excited about what's about to happen.
Last week on the show, Chat was saying that to
help his back out as they were back, you need
to find some we're called a saddle chair.

Speaker 5 (11:22):
Yes, it's meant to keep you pulvis in a better
position so that you don't get back pain sitting down.

Speaker 3 (11:28):
Yeah, and so you massed to find one, but it
was a long way from us and a place called Mafra.

Speaker 6 (11:32):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (11:33):
Well, I could have bought one from the store, but
over a thousand dollars to buy him new. This one
was one hundred bucks. On Facebook marketplace. A guy called
Paul who'd retired not no longer needed it, but he
was three hours from the city.

Speaker 3 (11:44):
So one of you actually called in said her mum
lives out in this place called Mafra and she was
going to see her this weekend. She would kind of
go and pick up this saddle chair for Jack and
then bring it all the way someone like two hundred
and twenty two k from Mafra to Alphinton to you.

Speaker 5 (11:58):
I couldn't believe my luck. And the guy on Facebook
was just ran the corner from her mum.

Speaker 3 (12:03):
So perfect. Where is the saddle chair?

Speaker 5 (12:07):
Okay, it's why don't you want it?

Speaker 3 (12:09):
I thought you'd be on it.

Speaker 5 (12:10):
I'll bring it in. You're going to see something glaringly
wrong with it as soon as I sit down. All right,
let's bring in the saddle chair.

Speaker 3 (12:19):
I'm curious now, okay.

Speaker 5 (12:21):
Very comfortable to sit on. It's not that's not the problem.

Speaker 3 (12:24):
Saddle chair is saddle chairs coming in?

Speaker 5 (12:29):
The problem? Isn't the comfiness of sitting on the saddle
the problem?

Speaker 3 (12:33):
Did you check the spec out beforehand? It's about a
foot off the ground. It's for a small cowboy or
a jockey.

Speaker 5 (12:44):
You forget how high these desks are. In the radio studio,
we're actually very high up.

Speaker 3 (12:49):
Which didn't you check the spec that it would obviously
elevate the story Now unless like I'm talking down to you,
you're on a potty. Have you seen him? He's on
the floor.

Speaker 5 (12:57):
Can you see me, Pats see.

Speaker 3 (12:59):
The top of my hair?

Speaker 4 (13:00):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (13:01):
Wow, it's so comfortable.

Speaker 4 (13:02):
Looks like you're on one of those toddler chairs.

Speaker 5 (13:04):
Yeah, I'm actually very comfortable.

Speaker 3 (13:07):
But surely does it doesn't extend up? That is it extended? Oh? No,
So what we're going to have to do? Put you
on like a podium?

Speaker 5 (13:18):
Get used to be being here?

Speaker 3 (13:19):
No, no, there's no way.

Speaker 5 (13:21):
It's a meaning more for you perfectly. I can see
you perfectly.

Speaker 3 (13:25):
This is just I feel like now what it must
be to be a pharmacist. I feel like a Dispenson
was something that I'm about several stages higher up than you.

Speaker 5 (13:34):
So I do feel like a shrunk the yeah human
singing at a normal sized table.

Speaker 3 (13:39):
That didn't Kim, and thank you for listening to him.
That went and got this for you, by the way,
and Jack gave her one hundred dollars, which is very kind.
We've worked out what the fuel would cost her for
a two hundred and twenty two k trip ninety dollars.
So you know, a ten dollar tip is really kind
Jack and Patsy told me he goes, I put it
in an envelomee. Oh wow, Oh there's Daddy Warbucks. Yeah,

(14:06):
well with a ten dollar profit, ninety wheen, mister radio star.

Speaker 4 (14:12):
Oh, get some pellets or something, some wooden pellets, and
then you can like climb up on top of that
and sit on it.

Speaker 3 (14:21):
It is basically it's a child's chair.

Speaker 5 (14:23):
Yeah, we're at home from my home desk, which is
a normal sized deck.

Speaker 3 (14:27):
Come on, look, how can you take yourself seriously? Get
sun to see you like that looks like a Wendy house. Now,
it's not fine at home, very tall, they're not. This
is a normal desk.

Speaker 5 (14:37):
It's desky. This is very hard.

Speaker 3 (14:41):
This is desky. This is desky.

Speaker 5 (14:43):
This is over a meet up.

Speaker 3 (14:44):
So you're not gonna you're okay doing the show?

Speaker 5 (14:46):
Not that, No, I don't.

Speaker 2 (14:49):
The Christian o'connal show podcast.

Speaker 3 (14:53):
Christian listening right now and Jack on his small child's
saddle chair or he can do his picture Dicky knee
sitting a pursuit. You Well, that's the best way to
describe what was happening there, Charie, very funny. Yes, you
need the blue cap of Dicky knee there.

Speaker 5 (15:09):
I'm back on the normal churning.

Speaker 3 (15:10):
Yes, thank god, thank you very much. Over the week
in quite a few people email me about the ant
problem at home. Thank you very much, a lot of
you with various advice. Because the ants are eating the
doorbell camera. We've got so all day long. This is
my wife trying to work out who is at the door.
Looks like aliens because the ants are getting into the
doorbell cam.

Speaker 4 (15:28):
Hello, can you hear me?

Speaker 3 (15:29):
Christian? You've got an ant problem? I hear boiling water,
expensive ant killer, baby powder, forget it. The best way
is to feed them all do is find the nest
and then the little trail of door boy doorbell destroying ants.
Once you find get something tasty like syrup, honey or
treacle stick, a big blob of it near the nest,
cutting the trail, it doesn't take long for the mess
to get out, and the lazy little buggers will feast

(15:51):
on the sweet treasure that has miraculously arrived right on
their doorstep. Doorbell, what doorbell? They'll be saying to each other,
thank you, very much. That's from part time dave A
lot of you also telling me to track down the
nest coming on, I haven't, aready got the time?

Speaker 5 (16:06):
Its not tracking down?

Speaker 3 (16:09):
Yeah, how do you track their ant nest? They're just
even itching thinking about it all all right, I can
open up the lines now, who like me, has gone
to bed okay and then woken up not okay? Sometimes
even just when you middle aged, going to bed the
act of sleeping itself, which should be restorat to if
bad things can happen to your back, your body, or
in my case, my eye. I went to bed okay

(16:30):
Friday night, welcome the morning. My eye on Saturday morning
was double the size, puffy, red and swollen. I've got
no idea what happened. I actually think my wife is
punch them in the middle of night.

Speaker 5 (16:40):
It looks like a punch.

Speaker 3 (16:41):
Seriously, I can't work out this parent is some sort
of allergic reaction or please stop eating mainly as well
about this I thing unless you've got something positive or hopeful.
One lady, you heard that the pharmacists recommended this hydrocorterzone
cream and said, oh, I use that. When I went
to see the ice specialists, they said, if you couried
on his net, you'd go blinde that just now, Patsy
screamed when she saw it. Some of my have shingles

(17:03):
in the eye. Enough now with it. None of this
is hopeful. I'm not even going to make it till nine.
Now I'll have no eyes tomorrow.

Speaker 5 (17:10):
Have you thought of an eye patch?

Speaker 3 (17:12):
I tried to find one yesterday at the pharmacist, but
they don't't tell them no this check, they'd run out.

Speaker 7 (17:18):
Oh.

Speaker 3 (17:18):
I don't know if there's a thing right now or
there's been a rush on eye patches at the start
this year. I've got no idea. Man's got an outbreak

no idea. I went to bed, I woke up with
a dislocated elbow.

Speaker 3 (17:48):

So what happened to you?

Speaker 1 (19:10):
So I went for like a facial, you know, like
a group demonstration, and everything was fine, and then I
woke up the next day looking like I'd gone ten
rounds with Rocky Balboa.

Speaker 3 (19:21):
So you also heard what puffy nurse?

Speaker 8 (19:23):
And the whole thing was puffy, like you know, example,
like Will Smith in that movie where he, you know,
face goes puffy. So yeah, I couldn't open my eyes
really like in the morning, and I had to say
to my kids. I was mum at the time, so
I'd take the kids to school and stuff. I had
to say, now, when.

You open your eyes, don't be scared. Mum's face is.

Speaker 8 (19:45):
A bit puffy.

Speaker 1 (19:48):
And yeah, I was just so swollen, and like everything
was so swollen.

Speaker 3 (19:51):
It's quite alarmed. And is that when your very a
physical appearance actually alarms people like Patsy's screaming when she
saw me earlier and the kids going, oh my god,
it's hid an actual pharmacist. Yes, are going, oh my god.
Nothing in my training, nothing in my training has led
to this kind of freakery. Mouth. Thank you very much
for give us a call mate.

Speaker 2 (20:12):
Thanks the Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 3 (20:16):
Amazing video has gone viral over the last couple of days.
I hope you've seen it. It's unbelievable. It's a kayaker
swallowed for about five seconds by a well, and I
mean a massive, huge humpback well swallowed then spats out
a Chilean kayaker who's got no idea what's happening to,
just in his little kayak, kayaking along and then suddenly

(20:38):
he's inside the mouth of a forty ton well. Have
you seen the video?

Speaker 4 (20:41):
Pats yeah, it's crazy.

Speaker 3 (20:43):
And then he spits him out like he's like, oh God,
Luck chucks him back out with the kayak. He was
fully inside the whale's mouth, rop to three or five
seconds for the well breached again opened his mouth to
allow him to float back to the surface and swim
to safety. This is a guy that happened to Adrianne Salamanca.

Speaker 9 (21:03):
A wave struck me from behind. When I turned around,
I saw some blue, dark colors and white flashing right
through my face, and I felt a slimy texture in
my cheek. I guess I was inside something smouth, but

(21:29):
I didn't know it was a whale.

Speaker 3 (21:31):
Luckily it wasn't too well of what's going on because
it happened so quickly. It just sort of gets slashed
by this mega sort of hump back. Well, so this
week on the show, we're looking for your well and
shark stories. This week is now well and shark.

Speaker 6 (21:42):
Week, shot shot and Whale.

Speaker 3 (21:49):
Now I'm hoping over the course of the five shows
this week we hear stories. We've only want first hand stories,
not I heard about a friend of mine, or this
happened to a friend of mine first hand account. Last
week we got blessed with a first hand alien UFO
encounter account from Joy. She took us there. This week,
I'm hoping for several shark or well stories. Now. My

(22:11):
wife is a diver. She said to me yesterday, She said,
what you're doing on the show this week? She wasn't
She always asked me on a Sunday Shenas even maintained
eye contact. She can't miment because of how scarier husband looks.
But I said, oh, we're doing shark and well weed.
This is the first time she was interested. When we're
doing what I said, shark and well, we we're looking
for first hand stories of a shark or Welsh went,
you won't get a single story. It's so rare and

(22:32):
encounter with either of those this week, there'd be no
one ringing in or emailing with a single story. We
have a bet, I said, we're not going to get one,
not two. We're going to get three shark and well stories.

Speaker 5 (22:44):
By the end of the week.

Speaker 3 (22:46):
By the end of our Friday show, we'll have had
three stories of shark and well Weed's do you think
we're going to get.

Speaker 5 (22:51):
I had one for you, but it's not a first
hand account, so now it's.

Speaker 3 (22:54):
No, no, no, So what was it? A friend of
yours who's.

Speaker 5 (22:57):
A friend of mine, and it wasn't a shark, turned
out to be dolphin. But he was very scared stopping
now im more.

Speaker 3 (23:03):
Brain doesn't know that when you're in the sea.

Speaker 5 (23:05):
So what happened was he was swimming out of Philip Earland,
wanted to go around the boy and come back in.
And as he was going around the boy underneath him,
all he saw was a finn go right underneath him.
Popped his head up and he was and he said
to his mate, Marty's like, we got to get out
of here. It's like, well, the only way is to
swim back and then the dolphin came back and they
saw us a dolphins.

Speaker 3 (23:25):
All right, so we need eyewitness stories. We have one
thousand dollars up for grant for the best shark or
well story you can give us this week. Email me
Christian at Christian O'Connell dot com dot au and he
can also call in on the twenty four hour Shark
hot Line.

Speaker 2 (23:39):
Christian Connall Show podcast.

Speaker 3 (23:41):
It's an open invitation your shark and whale stories. Yesterday
I was googling shark facts. I didn't know they live
up so they can live up to five hundred years old.
Did you know that?

Speaker 5 (23:52):
I didn't know that five hundred.

Speaker 3 (23:53):
Years old and three human beings have been injured by
sharks in restas. I've got the stories. I share them
with him this week. Just gone back to This is
the video that's motivated all this, the kayaker in Chile
who was swallowed by a forty ton hump back well
for a couple of seconds, three minutes, say three minutes.

(24:16):
In the three minutes it's waiting it out. He look, God,
I've only had a torch or saying hello, can you
spit me back out?

Speaker 9 (24:25):
There's nothing I can do if I am inside the
mouth of a giant fish.

Speaker 3 (24:32):
Probably one of the truest things ever said by human
You're right if you're in the mouth, he says, giant
fish a forty ton hump back. Well, there is very
little one can do.

Speaker 9 (24:41):
There's nothing I can do if I am inside the
mouth of a giant fish.

Speaker 3 (24:48):
Can anyone else Here's either listening to a very excitable
sort of chile and Kay and Jane in the background.
Then I can hear someone babbling.

Speaker 9 (24:55):
There's nothing I can do if I am inside the
mouth of for giant fish.

Speaker 3 (25:02):
I thought. He says that the guy in the background
says one or four or something, some sort of Chilean
version of gold. One I four. Is it all right?
So welcome to Shark and Well week.

Speaker 6 (25:12):
Shot Shot and Whale Week.

Speaker 3 (25:15):
Now, my wife, who is a diver, said, you want
to get a single story all week. Well, I'm afraid
Sarah and or you're already one down. We have our
first story here from Paul the diver. Christ and I
have had a first hand encounter with a shark. When
I was working in Papa, New Guinea. I went scuba
diving with two mates. We're at twenty meters deep. Visibility
really good. I saw some clams, and I thought, do

(25:37):
you know what, I'm gonna make some clam chowder to
I can I mean, I can just about snorka but
I couldn't. I can't. I can't understand how anyone could
be so relaxed, even under the sea anyway breathing. Then
I don't think and ang on a minute, I've just
seen dinner. Have you make clam chowder?

Speaker 5 (25:53):
I've never never been in the war, And like you
would pick an apple from the tree, I'll have that.

Speaker 3 (25:58):
A nice apple pie. Do you know what I mean?
I'm and iver, Paul. You see some clams? He thought,
if I see some clam chowder tonight. I swam down
about a lot of five meters. So if you're paying attention,
winning our Paul is now at twenty five meters to
the seafloor to get them clams. When I started to
ascend to catch up to my dive buddies, they're about
twenty minutes twenty meters from me, heading towards our boat.

(26:19):
I don't know why, but INSTANCE said, turn around, and
I saw a two meter shark heading straight towards me.
Quickly it abruptly veered off than about fifteen meters from me.
I thought, that's strange. So many thoughts had go on
in Paul's head. Aren't they the clam dinner? Have you
still got the clams?

Speaker 5 (26:35):
I might have, Shark, that's a sight.

Speaker 3 (26:38):
That's strange. Haven't you really encountered as sharp before? Then?
My newfound friend turned around and came back towards me
very fast. Hmm, I thought so many thoughts. Maybe I
should get out of here. I dropped the clams. It
came at me. Oh no, you're kidding, so wor it's
part of the story that clam chowder than never got made.
I dropped the clams again. Though it came up me.

(27:00):
I thought it was a decoy. It might go for
those clams. It didn't. I spun around and made off
as quickly as I could to catch up to the
distance where my buddies were. In record time. I scribbled
on my dive pad, shark, I think it was me.
I'm putting that do in that universe of like your
hand on your head, like shark, who's got time to
get your little pad out? You know, put them on

(27:23):
the head like a fin turd to write down and
then three exclamation marks shark. They looked around and it
was gone. Later I re told my story to the
dive and start to advise me that sharks were coming
around here, and it was this way of the shark
saying this is my patch.

Speaker 6 (27:37):
Leave.

Speaker 3 (27:38):
We never went back. Dive A Paul, thank you very
much for a strong start. Already, Well one off to
shark and well wee we've got some more calls lined up.

Speaker 2 (27:47):

Good morning, Hello, Good morning, Belly, Welcome to the show.

Speaker 10 (28:08):
Hi, Christian, how are you doing.

Speaker 3 (28:10):
I'm good, So Billy, is this a shark or well story?

Speaker 10 (28:13):
It's a shark story?

Speaker 3 (28:14):
Well, and first hand has happened to you? Billy?

Speaker 10 (28:17):
Yes, I was there the person next to me. So
I was in Fiji doing a bull shark dive for
twenty five meters deep and the guy next to me
got slapped in the face by a bull shark.

Speaker 3 (28:28):
What do you mean slapped in the face up with
one of the fins like a sort of spack haud. Yeah,
it's really disrespectful to a guy, especially in front of
another dude as well.

Speaker 10 (28:38):
Yeah, one of the fins, so it was pretty much
swimming directly towards him. And you have the Fiji and
guys behind you, and they have these long sticks to
poke them off when they get too close.

Speaker 3 (28:52):
I've seen the movie Yours they eat the boat some
little broom hand or is this going to be like
a tooth peek to it. He's going to get that
stick and whack you with it with one of the fins.

Speaker 5 (29:04):
You allow yourself. Why is the Fijian go behind.

Speaker 3 (29:07):
You pushing you in front of him?

Speaker 10 (29:11):
Nobody go to add to the story. So you you
dive down and it's about twenty five twenty six meters.
You sit behind this little ledge and they have a
really bin like I'm talking the green really been outside
of your house.

Speaker 11 (29:25):
They feel they fill that up.

Speaker 10 (29:27):
With tuna heads and there's a there's a diver above
that that shakes this.

Speaker 3 (29:32):
It seems I'm into Fiji right, and I've seen some
of those diving trips and that they're very laid back.
They're off their off their heads on that carver. They
will drink and they've got WHEELI bins full of fishheads.

Speaker 2 (29:47):
Yeah, so pretty much.

Speaker 10 (29:48):
A big, a big tuna head fell down and this
shark came up, grabbed it and it was heading in
our direction. So before it got to usk, this Fijian
guy just gives it a little nudge and then it
turns around and it was moving fairly fast, so it
just lightly slaps the guy.

Speaker 11 (30:04):
Next to me his head. His head goes back.

Speaker 6 (30:07):
Comes forward.

Speaker 11 (30:08):
I rouse go up.

Speaker 10 (30:10):
This guy's petrified.

Speaker 3 (30:11):
I love all this detail under water, like, oh my god,
don't sit every day lo and behold.

Speaker 10 (30:19):
Backhanded shark in a little bit of shark looks at me, smiles,
shark swim off, continue watching.

Speaker 3 (30:27):
Wow, Betty, great story, great story, Betty, thank you very
much for shame. May have a good week.

Speaker 2 (30:33):
Thank you mate, Bte who knew.

Speaker 3 (30:35):
We get shot so he's so quickly we got Brian here.
Good morning Brian, Good morning God of him?

Speaker 2 (30:43):
Team?

Speaker 10 (30:43):
How are you?

Speaker 6 (30:43):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (30:45):
Team a good Brian? So shark are well?

Speaker 9 (30:48):
Yes?

Speaker 11 (30:49):
Yes, I was up on the broad Beach and Service
Paradise probably about twenty odd years ago, doing a bit
of body surfing and quite a sort of stormy murky day.
But the waves were quite big and with a made
of mine and dived under a wave and thought I
hit a rock. There's no rocks out there, so and
suddenly the tail sort of swished and and then I

(31:13):
was looking dazed out into the horizon like I was
looking at the twilight zone and and staggering around. And
my mate said, get out, You've got to get out
and get out of the water. You just you've just
hit a shark. And as that was he got me
out of the water and that was that was it.
I went headfirst into a shark.

Speaker 3 (31:33):
That is unfortunate. I mean, what are the odds that
you've dive in and head butt flying head butt to
a shark. You're lucky did in back back venue like
the last caller, Billy.

Speaker 11 (31:42):
I know, I know. I had to go to the
chiropractice the next day because my neck. I couldn't move
my neck.

Speaker 3 (31:48):
What a great reason to go to chiropracts, right, because
it's so late. I just got out of the shower.
I don't know what happened head but the shark. All right,
Thank you very much, you kil Brian.

Speaker 2 (31:59):
Thank you The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

Speaker 3 (32:03):
I went down a wormhole yesterday when I was just
googling shark facts. You know when Google does auto complete.
I wasn't asking this into Google, but suddenly I was
following the trail that just said, what are sharks frightened off?
I was like that they're frightening stuff. There's a certain
type of psycho monkey or psycho chimp sharks are frightened
of because it eats their eggs. And then it was like,

(32:23):
sharks have eggs. Then I actually googled how do sharks mate?
And you know what, despite all these latest sort of
technological advancements of how we can record stuff underwater now
with these cameras, there's no data on how Its never
been captured. It's never been captured. Several articles saying they
don't know how they mate, nothing's been recorded. They're hoping

(32:45):
now with drone technology that they can finally find out
watch them. I guess, I don't know. Creeps up there
in the sky and the Russian, the Chinese.

Speaker 4 (32:55):
Apparently sharks kind of get cancer as well.

Speaker 3 (32:57):
That was the other what they found. Yeah, that was
the other one. So they can smoke forty darts a day, fearless.

Speaker 5 (33:03):
Yeah, and how they filled out about the monkeys. What
are the monkeys doing underwater to get the air.

Speaker 3 (33:07):
They're diving down. There's some kind of psycho chip. You've
got to find out more for tomorrow. Rio. I got scared.
Mummy said, get offline, unplug the modem. It was bedtime yesterday.
I couldn't find out anymore. Yes, but the cancer fact
was one of them shark has never had cancer.

Speaker 4 (33:22):
Yeah, so they're studying them to see why and see
if it can help humans.

Speaker 3 (33:26):
Yeah. So this Sunday, big moment for our family. Our
last daughter leaves home. So Lowisho's eighteen. She's off to university.
So we're moving around this Sunday. And yesterday she was
packing a suitcase. That bit was fine. Then I went
to her bedroom. All the posters have come down from
her bedroom. It was it was just a room. Jack,

(33:47):
It's not her room. Because actually, when you're a teenager,
the way you show mom and dad in the world
who you are right now, who you dream of being,
or what you're passionate about, are the posters on the wall.
It's all the passions everything. It's the the actors and
actresses she likes is the musicians, it's the images. It
was literally like going into a museum of her. Whenever
went to a bedroom and certain posters would come down

(34:09):
and I'd never say, oh, you're not that anymore, and
something new would come up and I'd know more about
where she was in her and what she was passionate about,
buy what was on the contents of her bedroom. Or
it's like what literally is like a dank old gave
in there with the clothes on the floor, but the
posters have all been taken down because they've got to
go to where she's going to be. It's like her
essence has been packed away. And it was a gut

(34:31):
punch and I went in there was like the posters
are down, and she was like, yeah, they've all got
to come down. I was like, kind of leave one up, soul,
she go, So we were Then I was like going,
not that, I don't care about that one. Can I
have this one? So I've kept one of myself. But
you would have been through that. We've all been at
that those ages where those posters were everything. And then
the sad thing is at some point you stop us

(34:52):
have grown up, you become too boring for posters. You'ren't
putting up posters anymore? Why aren't there posters for grown ups?

Speaker 5 (34:58):
I used to go to the the Voyager video store
in our neighborhood that sold you know, those poster racks.
They had the big botanic frame frame and you flipped
through them, and I used to love and looking through
the band and then.

Speaker 3 (35:11):
You look at the band ones. Then it was scantily
clad women. There was the one with the tennis play
with scratching the backside. There were some fit looking dudes
in dungarees who did not work in any kind of
garage or car auto shop that I've ever seen.

Speaker 5 (35:26):
And then you get to the comedy ones, like like
beer goggles type thing.

Speaker 3 (35:31):
That's right, Dad's man cave, and like monkeys scratching their heads,
stuff like that. You're right, those were the flow of those.
You through those big metallic screens.

Speaker 5 (35:40):
Bigger than what were the posters on your benroom. I
had all my favorite bands, Green Day, No Effacts. I
had a big poster of the Big Day Out, the
year the Beastie Boys came. Even though I didn't go
to that bigure.

Speaker 4 (35:53):
But you felt like you were there because you had
the poster.

Speaker 3 (35:55):
On your wall, Patsy, what did you want? Posters? You
have anyone?

Speaker 4 (35:57):
I had Andrew McCarthy, the actor I had in excess.
I had dirty Dancing with Patrick Swayze and Baby in
a Dance.

Speaker 3 (36:05):
Some of your favorite readio news readers.

Speaker 4 (36:07):
No no, no radio.

This weekend we move our youngest daughter, last one to
leave he and we move her ound this Sunday, And
yesterday she was packing up all her stuff. That bit
didn't get me. It was when I saw that she
cleaned out her bedroom from all the posters from her
bedroom or it was like she was never there, because
the posters are how we say to everybody else, Mum
and dad and the rest world, this is who I am, Right,
That's what I care about. Jack and I were just

(41:03):
talking about how for us it was mainly band posters.
They still look amazing back in the day.

Speaker 5 (41:08):
How important was everything was to get it right right?

Speaker 3 (41:10):
Yeah? And also do you I suspend ages with where
they were? There was like who was next to them?
Which wall were the bands on?

Speaker 5 (41:18):
The other band's going to get along with it?

Yes? Will the Beastie Boys fight with you too? It's
my dam which will have Bruce Lee in the middle
keeping order with his nunchucks. Game between Bono and the
Beastie Boys and then Rio you had a different one
who had your blessed you at a timetable.

Speaker 7 (41:35):
A big I guess like a one massive took up
maybe a third of the wall times table third of
the war big one.

Speaker 3 (41:41):
And is that when he came out as a nerd,
he had like a nerd reveal party.

Speaker 7 (41:46):
Times table twelve ion probably at least thirteen or fourteen.

Speaker 3 (41:52):
Parents must have been so worried about you.

Speaker 5 (41:54):
I also had flags, so I had all the flags.

Speaker 3 (41:58):
Need to worry about you getting into one pregnant that
is it's actually a formal contraception, and time.

Speaker 5 (42:06):
It actually has a younger kid. I had flags of
the world as well. I was quite good at flags.
I bet you'd be good at recognizing flags.

Speaker 3 (42:12):
And take it into some chat please. So you also
have the wizards in your bedroom.

Speaker 5 (42:20):
So the we're talking about two different years now theres
of Jack. Sorry, I'm trying to get the timeline when
I'm a teenager. That's the bands on the wall music.

Speaker 3 (42:29):
And what about that special perf shelf you had of
Kydie Minogue above your bedroom pedal and.

Speaker 5 (42:34):
Things I wish I'd never said on the shot. That
was just a simple different clipping of the magazine put
on a shelf that hung over my pillow place.

Speaker 3 (42:49):
You didn't want the beast of boys up there. No
perf is up shelfing. It's a whole new thing. Hashtag
up shelfing. All right, what were the posters you had
on your bedroom wall? Nine four one four one o four.

Speaker 2 (43:00):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 3 (43:03):
Jack and Rio just been talking about their shared love
of flags, and I think tomorrow maybe a flag quiz
could be happening. They were both very good about the
flags of Have you thought I catching up with Congo,
the new Congo, the new Libya and the change after
the fall of good Affi. It is gonna it's on tomorrow.
The flag quiz that stops the nation.

Speaker 5 (43:22):
My sweet spot is the late nineties when I had
it on the wall. So flags of the late.

Speaker 3 (43:27):
I'll do that. Then when they were down, Rio, what
what era do you want? Flags of the world? Of
which era? Any ear?

Speaker 5 (43:32):
I'll beat him? Keep d with flags.

Speaker 3 (43:36):
They don't change that much.

Speaker 7 (43:37):
That's pretty Once you settle on a flag, they don't
really alter them.

Speaker 5 (43:40):
No, No, but Libya did, didn't it?

Speaker 3 (43:42):
Yeah, I mean that's rare.
