Speaker 7 (01:15):
Up two points, the first being that I didn't want
you all changing the date.

Speaker 8 (01:19):
Just because of me.

Speaker 7 (01:21):
And why Queen Fair and why I can't attend is

Yeah, the way you've got that special news site when
you put on the top of the car.

Speaker 8 (01:59):
Look, I've faced time your how is that?

Speaker 5 (02:01):
So? Are you speaking today?

Speaker 8 (02:02):
No? No, just a guest.

Speaker 6 (02:05):
Also when I came in today, right, I tried to
wave in that that she couldn't see when she was
doing her hair. Hair sometimes when it's a newsroom, also
it's a private dressing room. You're right, it's like a
Swiss armonife that is that is you're making use of
your type. She's probably gonna have like a pedicure today

(02:25):
during it during the show we're seeing.

Speaker 5 (02:26):
She's the newsroom.

Speaker 6 (02:27):
Patsy, Please tell Jack about the cues that you had
to go through yesterday to use the toilets here.

Speaker 5 (02:34):
I didn't know that could be a thing.

Speaker 8 (02:36):
What is it with ladies toilets?

Speaker 7 (02:37):
Whenever if you go to a show or whatever, our cue.

Speaker 3 (02:41):
I always feel sorry for you.

Speaker 7 (02:43):
What is it do we fat about in there? Why
is our cue?

Speaker 3 (02:46):
Or do we get to stand up? So the time
is so?

Speaker 8 (02:49):
What it is?

Speaker 5 (02:50):
I tell you what.

Speaker 6 (02:51):
At least it's worth queuing for the experience you get.
You get the first class experience. Men's toilets never end times.
Foul smell, it's disgusting.

Speaker 5 (03:01):
I remember when the girls.

Speaker 6 (03:02):
If I had the girls for all weekend, I'd have
to use a men's toilets and take my daughters in there,
right and I would just be like, girls, just look down,
you know, and.

Speaker 5 (03:09):
They're like, what's it smelling here?

Speaker 6 (03:11):
And I went, don't touch anything nothing and closed the
door and so they were not looking around horrible like
angryk free ty everywhere threatening various groups and stuff like.
They are the worst places we have not progressed when
you see what's in a public toilet.

Speaker 10 (03:26):
No.

Speaker 7 (03:27):
Well, I had to go pad of my nose after
the show yesterday and there was a.

Speaker 5 (03:31):
Cue pass has got drug problem? And you know, we just.

Speaker 7 (03:36):
Anyway, So it just happened.

Speaker 5 (03:37):
To be too after the showw just to get you through.

Speaker 7 (03:39):
The drive the edge of circulate anyway, So Sue Boss,
Sue and I were waiting and I don't know who
was it.

Speaker 5 (03:47):
Oh, Sue's on the.

Speaker 3 (03:49):
I've often wont to where she got those big ideas
from We're gonna.

Speaker 5 (03:52):
Give away hair dryers, show them in the news. What
hair dryer? Yeah, now you get it right?

Speaker 8 (04:01):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (04:02):
Anyway, So Sue and I were waiting to powder our
nose again, and so you have a conversation as you
do as you're waiting, and I thought, once it was
our turn to go into our separate cubicles do what
we needed to do, that the conversation would naturally like
cease because you're doing your business, aren't you.

Speaker 6 (04:21):
Oh no, what Sue was chatting to you over the kid
to be through the check Hey listen, I had to
ask seven, what a mess?

Speaker 5 (04:33):
I thought? Like talking like work stuff for well.

Speaker 7 (04:35):
You know, and I sat down. I thought, okay, so
the conversation will kind of peter out now while we
do what we need to do, and.

Speaker 3 (04:41):
No one should talking about Hello is as far as
the conversation.

Speaker 5 (04:47):
Space, echoing the intimacy dressed. Everything's not right for for
work chats.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
She knows no bounds.

Speaker 6 (04:56):
So yeah, trying to have a conversation with you while
you she was having a conversation with me.

Speaker 5 (05:02):
What like you got many plans over Christmas?

Speaker 7 (05:04):
Pretty much like that, just you know, the general just
the general house the fan.

Speaker 5 (05:09):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (05:09):
I don't like the conversation where you have to pause
for a flush, resume after.

Speaker 6 (05:14):
And then what if the other person leaves before you
and you will worry the persons like, my god, they
really are in stood in there.

Speaker 1 (05:21):
Five minutes later, Patsy Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 6 (05:24):
Good morning, it's a Christian O'Connell's show. So your wife
got back yesterday from her hike in the Grampians.

Speaker 3 (05:30):
I'm so proud of her. She did an amazing job.
She was cooked though by the time she walked to
how many days was she wait for? They did four days,
three nights. She left on Friday hiking through the Grampians,
and she organized it all. She's so great building these communities.
She's got her book club, she had the run club,

(05:50):
and now she's starting this thing where taking other women
on these hikes. And so she didn't know to do.
She had two friends there and then everybody else is
either from through social media or friends of friends, and
they had they couldn't have really had worse weather thirty
five degrees on Saturday, and then the rain came in.

(06:11):
It was just wet for the rest of their time there.
But she she really enjoyed it. She really pushed herself
to the nth degree and her legs last night were cooked.

Speaker 5 (06:22):
So how many CA's as they do?

Speaker 3 (06:24):
I don't really know.

Speaker 6 (06:29):
Just the first questions on my head is like how
much walking down hiking do?

Speaker 3 (06:32):
I think it's more about the challenging terrain slope rather
than how many CA's you got on?

Speaker 5 (06:38):
Did you say she was actually like they were they
were like rock climb.

Speaker 3 (06:41):
Yeah, well they were. They weren't rock climbing like with
caribbeaners and ropes and stuff, but they were scaling up
rock and mountain.

Speaker 6 (06:47):
Were they carrying all their or was it the posh
stuff where you get other people to do that.

Speaker 3 (06:51):
No one else there. They were each carrying their own
tent and all their everything they carried in and carried
out themselves.

Speaker 5 (06:57):
I think that must have had the most amazing conversation
they did.

Speaker 3 (07:00):
Yeah, she said, everybody really grew through it. She was
They made lifelong friends out of people they only met
on Friday. She loved it. There was one girl there,
she said, who several years ago got hit by a
bus broke her leg. She got to hospital, the doctor
said we have to lose the leg, and she said, no, no,

(07:20):
I can't. I can't do it. Second opinion, whatever it takes.
So she went through this long period of rehab until
she was able to walk again. And now she's climbing
up the side of the mountains.

Speaker 8 (07:30):
Wow, incredible.

Speaker 6 (07:33):
And was this all just they're discovered on the wall,
all stopping story, all stuff.

Speaker 3 (07:37):
They're discovering why they're walking.

Speaker 6 (07:38):
Yeah, I find that when you're going for a walk
with somebody, you have such an intimate conversation.

Speaker 5 (07:43):
Even Yes, so I just went for my daughter with
my daughter Ruby.

Speaker 6 (07:46):
She's just finished second at university, so she's back home
for a couple of days.

Speaker 5 (07:49):
And so we just went out for walk yesterday.

Speaker 6 (07:51):
For about two hours, and we're start off, you're making
small talk, you're catching up about this out and the other,
and then within about an hour you get into a
really deep conversation. And when we got back in the
car about two hours later, we were different people.

Speaker 5 (08:04):
It was only just a two hour. Its just a
two hour, but some magic happens when it.

Speaker 3 (08:08):
Was about a walk that that day. Yeah, it is
so true.

Speaker 6 (08:10):
It's actually one of the actually said let's go for
one every day this week. Right, we're after Hobart this weekend,
so we've got the all Trails app and we're looking
for some walks to do there as well.

Speaker 5 (08:19):
So imagine doing that over a couple of days.

Speaker 6 (08:20):
That when I was an island last year with thirty
five strangers from all over the world, you walk in
flight eight or ten hours a day, You have these
incredible conversations with different people.

Speaker 3 (08:29):
Maybe it's just simply the time that you get you
grow past that small talk stage where you're just like, oh,
how's your day been, what did you do yesterday? What
are you doing on the weekend, and then you're forced
to look for another conversation.

Speaker 5 (08:41):
Is it next year? I'm going to watch a podcast
where I interview people.

See sans choice that goes I'm doubling down on it.

Speaker 3 (20:28):
Hey, it's not our demographic. Maybe to his peers, that's

spot her on my way home.

Speaker 17 (21:25):
It waits brightened my day. I want to see what
a gift to the world that person is. One hundred

he had when he was nineteen and he's fifty two.

Speaker 3 (21:48):
Hoon won in trouble you cause yourself he pulled over.

Speaker 6 (21:53):
But if if you he's probably got like a serious job,
and you know, if you're accounting is rolling around with
her one, maybe take your business elsewhere.

Meant to be my real estate.

Speaker 5 (28:40):
The lovely gift to give someone coming of What a

Speaker 6 (29:01):
The absolute worst license plates are the ones where they
put the name of the car they're driving on it.

Speaker 5 (29:07):
You already hate, already has their badge.

Speaker 6 (29:08):
It tells us what type of guy got. Why waste
your money on putting it on there as well? Do
something more creative, please, Christian. I saw a Ferrari with
on Compo as the plate. Christian has a car inter
along with the red sho stolen.

Speaker 5 (30:04):

you seen?

Speaker 10 (30:08):
Thank you? Probably a fifteen twenty years ago when I
was playing soccer, one of my teammates had the original
Manchester United number plate and UTD in red and he
was offered twenty grand for it back in those days,
and he turned it down.

Speaker 5 (30:26):
Oh you just give it up so much money. It's
just a retro plate.

Speaker 10 (30:30):
Yeah, but back in the days when they were firing.

Speaker 6 (30:33):
Yeah, now you wouldn't get two bucks for that.

Speaker 5 (30:39):
Tony, that's incredible. Thanks you. Cole Ma. I have a
good day, you two. Stacy Coome morning.

Speaker 18 (30:45):
Hello, hell are you?

Speaker 5 (30:46):
I'm good? Stacey, Carl Rejo what have you seen?

Speaker 14 (30:49):
It's actually on my car. My husband's brother bought them.

Speaker 19 (30:53):
He's in his number plates when he was eighteen and
their dev l devil.

Speaker 9 (30:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 18 (30:59):
But it's actually initials.

Speaker 3 (31:01):
So it's just a coincidence.

Speaker 5 (31:02):
Oh I see.

Speaker 3 (31:04):
Yeah.

Speaker 14 (31:05):
So I've had abusy letters left on my car for
being evil and a few times.

Speaker 5 (31:11):
Oh my, that's you. Never thought about getting rid of it?

Speaker 3 (31:15):
No, I don't want to.

Speaker 5 (31:18):
All right, Stacey, thank you very much.

Speaker 1 (31:20):
She cool the Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 6 (31:23):
Because by my daughter's been eighteen and twenty, they still
one a Chocolate Advent calendar. And this makes me so happy.
The little girls they were are still there. They're still alive,
the spirit of them Chocolate Advent calendars. As a kid,
the Chocolate Advent Canada, opening up the tiny little door,
getting the tiny little chocolate was part of the part

(31:44):
of Christmas to me, just loved it.

Speaker 3 (31:46):
I wasn't allowed to have the chocolate one. We just
have the picture one.

Speaker 5 (31:50):
What do you mean?

Speaker 3 (31:51):
The picture one is just literally that you open the
door and you get to look at a new picture
each day.

Speaker 7 (31:56):
Oh no, child, And did they wheel that out each
year so you knew what was behind.

Speaker 3 (32:01):
It's still a new one, same thing made out of her.

Speaker 5 (32:05):
Might be one of the saddest things I heard about.

Speaker 3 (32:07):
Christmas, years before I even knew there was chocolate. The
old title man should open it and like see a
picture of a cottage in the snow, Jesus holding a
baby Lamb and my brother I still fought over who

(32:28):
would open it. I'm jealous of your daughters that got
the chocolate once.

Speaker 6 (32:36):
So Patsy, do you what does Ally do? Does she
still want the chocolate Advent calendar?

Speaker 8 (32:40):
Please? Please? Please?

Speaker 7 (32:42):
So we've graduated from the chocolate one that you get
at the supermarket. There's all sorts of retailers that have
Advent calendars now. So she loves the sports girl one.

Speaker 8 (32:51):
It's really cool.

Speaker 7 (32:52):
They might have like, you know, hair tie or a
lip gloss or a scrunchy something like that.

Speaker 5 (32:59):
Surely it is twenty five.

Speaker 7 (33:03):
It is like a month long one jacket's fantastic, so
I figure that's probably better.

Speaker 3 (33:08):
You three small things. The hair tie, the scrunchy pretty
similar already. The lip glass three weeks to fill.

Speaker 7 (33:15):
There's an eye shadow, there's a face mask. It's fantastic body.

Speaker 6 (33:19):
Tattoos to say this is this is your Christmas, by
the way, you're owning it up each day.

Speaker 8 (33:25):
And Rosy the Elf? Are you doing the Elf yet?
With Gordy?

Speaker 4 (33:29):
No?

Speaker 3 (33:29):
And I didn't have the elf as a kid either.
This is we have moved the elf.

Speaker 5 (33:32):
Every night there's the elf on the shelves.

Speaker 7 (33:34):
Elf on the shell.

Speaker 6 (33:35):
I always saw that's a real creepy thing to say
to your kid, that there's an old guy watching you
online somewhere seeing if you've been good or bad.

Speaker 7 (33:42):
So Elfie Rosy normally brings it on December one.

Speaker 3 (33:48):
As a kid, no elf, no chocolate calendar, no.

Speaker 6 (33:52):
Heart actually breaking my heart and perhasly what about you?
Because I I my wife buys me a chocolate Advent calendar.
Absolutely because then when I get up in the morning,
you know it cooked bust four and I have little chocolates
and treating my cup of tea.

Speaker 5 (34:04):
That's my Christmas.

Speaker 7 (34:05):
I've never bought one myself, but you can get some
brilliant ones like Mecca's got them this.

Speaker 3 (34:10):
But what did you have as a kid?

Speaker 8 (34:12):
Didn't have them?

Speaker 5 (34:13):
You know what my mom used to do with come
on your mum and dad a lovely bit. I bet
they did.

Speaker 7 (34:17):
Mum did other stuff they weren't around.

Speaker 2 (34:19):
We had.

Speaker 8 (34:19):
Mum used to get bits.

Speaker 5 (34:20):
Of tea for December.

Speaker 6 (34:23):
The slaughtering ponies obviously, the way you paint this black
and white Sepia toned.

Speaker 5 (34:28):
Child which never existed of like uncles.

Speaker 6 (34:31):
Punching men up in the air, they weren't around twenty never.

Speaker 3 (34:37):
Saw him for Christmas.

Speaker 7 (34:39):
I can't remember mom getting bits of tinsel and she'd
thread like life savers on them and she'd make Life
save in their class. So that was our version of
the Advent calendar. But we'd eat it all at once.

Speaker 5 (34:50):
I just love are you getting Advent calendar? Yes?

Speaker 4 (34:53):
I bought mine, and my parents always used to get
us one, and even that smell I got bought that
had been calendar and coals, and I put it up
against my nose. Christmas isn't And then every day you
get a little tree and.

Speaker 6 (35:07):
The smallness makes the tree. If it was an entire
choco bar, you don't enjoy it the same.

Speaker 3 (35:11):
But as an adult do you find it difficult to
withhold from just opening all the doors? Because how do
you not eat one on day one and go? I'll
just have tents.

Speaker 6 (35:19):
Because the keyword there was because I'm an adult and
have some kind of impulse control.

Speaker 4 (35:23):
And also I could just buy a chocolate with.

Speaker 7 (35:29):
Special How good is it though? When you forget one? Day,
and then one day you've got like double like.

Speaker 5 (35:35):
A couple of days. And then I just would I
just binge down and have a five door special. And
then I'm lying on the floor in a sugar.

Speaker 3 (35:41):
He that was three pictures in one day, Sentory.

Speaker 6 (35:45):
Over Jesus and a swing was in one of them. Well,
I'm going to buy you for Christmas.

Speaker 1 (35:57):
Tomorrow, Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 6 (36:02):
Or were you not allowed as a kid or you
denied poor young Jack post denied a chocolate Advent calendar?
Someone else also the same one that you weren't with
pictures from Debbie. Yes, Jack, we have the same calendar
in the nineteen sixties. See it's okay in the nineteen sixties.
You're a child of the two thousands sixties.

Speaker 5 (36:20):
Here you get it. The war it has ended.

Speaker 11 (36:23):
You know.

Speaker 6 (36:23):
And we had the same But in the nineteen sixties,
my nan lived next door and she put it out
each year. My brother and I took took a turn
to open a day and see the picture.

Speaker 3 (36:33):
This was still a cardboard one that was renewed every year.
So mom was obviously buying it from somewhere someone was
selling it, which means there was a market for the
picture of van calendar.

Speaker 6 (36:43):
Christian, what was I never allowed as a kid? Listening
to you from the Gold Coast today, wanting to Chris
my parents or this is a shocking one, Jack. My
parents owned a toy shop when I was a kid,
and I was denied any new toys. The only toys
I was allowed with ones that have been returned because
they're broken.

Speaker 5 (37:01):
Chris, this is this is Bob Cratchett territory. This is Scrooge.

Speaker 6 (37:05):
This is breaking my heart today. No more these ones
at Christmas right, They're just just too sad. Piece that
is shining. Not for you, young Chris stoic.

Speaker 5 (37:16):
Can you like a stoic?

Speaker 3 (37:19):
Don't even look in the story you'll get ideas.

Speaker 6 (37:21):
Christian. I don't have anything for the show today. I
just want to say, what the hell's going on with
Jack's papers concerned this Christian? Only good Advent calendar is
the whiskey one. You'll thank me later, No, Marcus, I won't.
Actually you don't need booze in them.

Speaker 3 (37:37):
I can't believe how many alternative to chocolate Advent calendar
is there are.

Speaker 5 (37:41):
They're booze ones, naked wines.

Speaker 3 (37:43):
Does one so a bottle of wine for the twenty
five days of December up until Christmas A Tiffany's one.
Will you get a piece of gold necklaces, earrings, brooches?

Speaker 6 (37:57):
Wow, Christian, I had the best advent under last year.
I bought the Bilson's Vodka Advalent Calendar. It had different
a different favorite can of Bilson's vodka behind each window,
and there was the added suspense of finding the golden can.
I've got the golden can? Which one you have? Fully stopped?
Mini fridge filled with yep, Bilson's vodka, and a tour

(38:19):
through their brewery. This was by far the best than calendar.

Speaker 5 (38:27):
Let's go to Sarah here.

Speaker 6 (38:29):
Good morning, Sarah, good morning. So well you denied the
chocolate advent calenadar as well as a kid?

Speaker 18 (38:35):
I think so, I don't remember having them.

Speaker 5 (38:38):
So and what do you do now? Do you overcorrect?

Speaker 18 (38:41):
I absolutely do. Every year I have at least three.
You can all get them as well, my children all
get them, and my husband. But this year I've got
an espresso coffee pods, I've got a perfume calendar, and
I've got a Lego calendar.

Speaker 5 (38:57):
Well, we three treats every day? Do you one? In
the morning, one at lunchtime, one in the evening. You
spread them.

Speaker 18 (39:02):
Out sometimes yes, sometimes the coffee will obviously be in
the morning in the morning as well.

Speaker 3 (39:07):
And then what's the lego one break a day?

Speaker 6 (39:10):
No?

Speaker 5 (39:11):
No, and you can make your own next year's calendar
made that lego?

Speaker 18 (39:15):
No, it makes a Christmas saint. Last year I had
Harry Potter.

Speaker 5 (39:19):
Nothing more Christmas than Harry Potter.

Speaker 18 (39:22):
I also had a cheese edwund calendar last year and
a damn Edmund calendar.

Speaker 5 (39:26):
Cheese one, yes, and cheese one's great. Yeah, Sarah, thank
you very much. You cool. Keep this coming. Then what
were you not allowed as a kid?

Speaker 1 (39:34):
Christian Connell Show podcast.

Speaker 3 (39:36):
Do you know I always feel sorry for christ over
Christmas kids who are Christmas babies where it's like Boxing
Day Christmas Day.

Speaker 5 (39:43):
Of course your hates it.

Speaker 7 (39:45):
Never had a birthday party growing up.

Speaker 5 (39:48):
God, this sadness.

Speaker 3 (39:49):
Yeah, we had. We had twins that we went to
school with who moved their birthday to July first, because
you can't do that Christmas Day, the.

Speaker 6 (39:59):
Rap he needs to do that When you had about
five birthdays a year, you can't just move.

Speaker 3 (40:03):
Them in the middle of the year. Instead, of at
Christmas time they would celebrate them.

Speaker 5 (40:08):
That is what shifted it to a better time, more
convenient time. Wow.

Speaker 6 (40:13):
All right, so we have every every single down the show.
Any moment when we hear a great story that really
makes us laugh or moves us, you win an instant
one thousand dollars to call a week. I hope that
we're giving it away in the next twenty minutes. Now,
we did have a couple of ways that we're going
to ask you to call in with three topic Tuesday,
but we're only going to do it on one thing.
We really want to hear stories where at some point
in this story a bang happens. You tell us, but

(40:35):
a big bang or just any kind of bang. Yesterday
we were doing the phone in BEZ, only two of
you actually had bangs in your stories.

Speaker 13 (40:43):
I miss you. You wanted to cut out one of
the poles, so we've got it. Then I got the rope,
We lessued the fole, the ropes running through my fingers,
and all.

Speaker 10 (40:50):
Of a sudden, pal bang, a break four of my fingers.

Speaker 13 (40:54):
I looked down and this is not at the end.

Speaker 15 (40:56):
Of the rope.

Speaker 1 (40:57):
We're on a trip filling up with fuel.

Speaker 5 (40:59):
These young boys.

Speaker 16 (41:00):
They're trying to blow up their basketball.

Speaker 15 (41:01):
So my brothers get there compressive outloads onto the basketball.

Speaker 5 (41:04):

Speaker 5 (41:32):
Oh yeah, right, Actually this one, Oh my god, what's
happened there?

Speaker 3 (42:46):
There's a few schedule.

Speaker 6 (42:49):
All right, Maybe we're Maybe it's our own fault for
asking stories, because if there has been a bang, something
really dramatic and possibly dangerous.

Speaker 3 (42:56):
I think the sound effects we're playing is not helping it.

Speaker 5 (42:58):
It isn't is it.

Speaker 6 (43:01):
These aren't mild peril stories. This is like something really
bad was exploded.

Speaker 11 (43:15):
So?

Speaker 5 (43:15):
Have you got a bang story? First? Melissa?

Speaker 12 (43:18):
Yeah, So on a stinking hot day, I was driving
my husband's car and I could hear this weird kind
of seizing sound and I looked all over the car.

Speaker 14 (43:27):
I couldn't work out what it was and just.

Speaker 12 (43:29):
Kept kind of going about my day. I went and
picked up my sister and my mom to go to
the movies, and we were driving along and bang, the
smoke started coming out from between the back seats. And
my husband's an engineer, he had like a I don't
know what he was doing, but it had a battery
in it that had exploded and caught fire in the boots.
So the whole car filled up with smoke. I opened

(43:51):
the boot, smacked out the fire with my song, and
then I just didn't.

Speaker 16 (43:55):
Know what, Like, it was all fine, we got it out,
but I just didn't know what to do.

Speaker 12 (43:59):
I was like, what do I.

Speaker 16 (44:00):
Who was his battery now? I just I was really
worried that the car was going to catch fire again
if I put it in someone's beIN, pin was going
to catch fire. And my husband just thought it was
really funny.

Speaker 3 (44:11):
What was he trying to make? Was it a car
battery or is it something else?

Speaker 6 (44:14):
The government want to speak to him as well. Was
working on some in the garage at the moment.

Speaker 16 (44:22):
He buys really chute batteries for this stuff, and it's
just like he makes his own home projects.

Speaker 14 (44:27):
I'm like, I'm sort of mad scientist.

Speaker 16 (44:29):
So he said, oh man, I won't get batteries.

Speaker 1 (44:32):
Literally, we do the.

Speaker 5 (44:38):
Version of the unibomer, you know, with knacking old batteries.
Oh funny stuff. And I said, thank you very much
for your story.

Speaker 12 (44:51):
I have a good day.

Speaker 6 (44:52):
And that's a good one because everyone survived. Let's go
to market.

Speaker 5 (44:56):
Good morning Mark, Good morning Christian.

Speaker 15 (45:00):
About ten years ago, my kid was maybe two years
old and we went to Chadsen and we're at the
Toys of Us getting him some bits and pieces, and
at the counter on the way out, they had those
enormous balloons for a buck. I thought, I'll buy one
of those one dollar huge balloons. And as we wandered
around Chatty, I blew it up and it got bigger
and bigger, and I thought, I keep blowing, it must

(45:21):
get bigger. And it got bigger and bigger and bigger,
and Christian, guess what it did next? It went bang,
and Chadstone and everybody and they all hit the ground,
their old ladies, wrinkling people. Weat the and oh god,

(45:46):
there was a lot of cleaning up done that afternoon.

Speaker 5 (45:49):
Just a balloon.

Speaker 15 (45:51):
It was a massive balloon, would have been about a
meter across before it went bang.

Speaker 5 (45:57):
Gotcha, Mark, thank you very much. You still you're welcome.

Speaker 15 (46:01):
Have a great day.

Speaker 6 (46:02):

Speaker 15 (46:09):
That's right, Yes, you've got our attention all right?

Speaker 5 (46:14):
What happened?

Speaker 15 (46:15):
Cal I proposed to my partner January this year and
that went off with a bang? That that's not the
bang in the story. There are a couple we were
heading out to dinner and we're sitting at the lights
to turn in sort of Embraside area in Melbourne, and
we hear a bit of rumbling and a couple of
bangs and we think it's I don't know, maybe it's
an industrial area or there are thunderstorms. And we get

(46:38):
a call from her mum, who was on the way
to have dinner with us to celebrate the occasion, and
she says, we can't get into the venue. It's blocked off.

Speaker 3 (46:47):
There are a couple of fieries.

Speaker 15 (46:48):
There and the dinner venue that we had booked about
twenty minutes ago had gone up in flames.

Speaker 6 (46:55):
Wow, what he for the wedding reception? Part of me
for the wedding reception, No.

Speaker 15 (47:00):
For dinner for the proposal, Oh I see, and everyone
got out fine. I think it was an extractive fan
in the kitchen blew up and yeah, it's the whole
venue went up in flames and shut down. I think
it's only just re opened recently, but put a really
interesting spin on our night. And we ran all about.

Speaker 5 (47:23):
You restaurant.

Speaker 6 (47:29):
Walking into a restaurant now, and these widely available restaurants
around there, and also what restaurants open in an industrial states. Look,
that's where I want to celebrate my engagement as an
industry estate called me.

Speaker 15 (47:42):
Well, I'm check it out. It's wonderful.

Speaker 3 (47:44):
I'll give you a plug.

Speaker 15 (47:45):
They're a wonderful group of people. We went out to
dinner afterwards at a brewery nearby, and my auntie doesn't
have a drink at all. She walked up the stairs
to the bathroom, came down, missed the last step, landed awfully,
broke out, ridge edited her shoulder, and the night was
spent on the ground looking after her while we waited,

(48:05):
now for an ambulance.

Speaker 5 (48:07):
What a night? So that?

Speaker 15 (48:09):
Yeah, we know they come in three, so we're waiting
for the third.

Speaker 6 (48:12):
Is that where you were lying on the ground rather
than getting her any help down.

Speaker 1 (48:17):
Wait wait, Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 6 (48:21):
Your story is involving a bang. Christian late seventies, we
had an above the ground clark pool. My job was
to skim the leafs out and chlorinate the pool. Easy
put chlorine in the floating pool dispenser, but I'd run
out of the stabilizing chlorine, so I topped it with
more regular chlorine and walked off. Next thing there was

(48:43):
a huge, almighty bang. All the clothes on my mum's
clothesline were immediately bleached with.

Speaker 20 (48:49):
The blasts damage. I don't know chlorine, but the worst
was yet to come. There's a phone in for one day,
but the worst was yet to come. It split the
plastic pool liner and the pool collapsed and all the
water gushed down the hill into fence after fence like
a damn had exploded. My recommendation, do not mix chemicals.

(49:15):
I'd love to do one day life lessons that you've
learned the hard way. Number one, don't mix chemicals. From
this that'stening credible story. Thank you very much that Michael,
Good morning your bang story?

Speaker 13 (49:27):
Yes, Hello, good morning, how are you I'm.

Speaker 5 (49:29):
Good, Michael, thanks for calling him good.

Speaker 13 (49:31):
Good, awesome. I have a story to warm Gary Cords's heart,
And as it is the season, it was about a
Christmas pudding at Christmas time and we're all enjoying meal
in the lounge room and all of a sudden we
heard an almighty bang, and we thought we were being
robbed or something, and we all ran into the kitchen

(49:51):
to discover that the Christmas pudding that had not been
pierced and was in the pot had exploded and it
had gone over the kitchen. It took out half the
so it took out the clock, so it took a
chunk out of the table. And we spent the rest
of the Christmas day cleaning up an almighty mess and

(50:13):
had no dessert.

Speaker 5 (50:14):
Oh no, what a story.

Speaker 6 (50:16):
And Michael, I've heard of this happening. Yeah, it apparently is.
It's an almighty bang.

Speaker 5 (50:20):
It is.

Speaker 13 (50:21):
It sounded like a bomb, actually, And it's a good
safety message for everyone out there. Make sure you kiss
the Christmas pudding.

Speaker 5 (50:28):
Can we're picking up all these lives.

Speaker 6 (50:30):
Don't mix chlorine, all right, and I'm passed that Christmas
pudding bag or.

Speaker 13 (50:35):
Put the chlorine in the part and maybe that'll boil
for you.

Speaker 5 (50:38):
I don't know.

Speaker 6 (50:38):
Okay, Well, thank yeah, yeah, thank you very much for
a real good I'm doing that, Michael, great story, Thank
you so much. Okay, have a nice day and one
last one. Let's get a chaan here, come on in

Speaker 5 (50:52):
We're good. Jan and your bang story, Well, it's happened in.

Speaker 14 (50:57):
Like the nineteen fifties.

Speaker 19 (50:59):
My father and my uncle just well, they were asked
by their father to remove a pine tree. So the
pine trees that you see around Melbourne, they're on the
beach or whatever. So they're long, skinny thing with you know,
the leaves at the top of.

Speaker 3 (51:17):
A tree.

Speaker 19 (51:23):
Yeah, so they had it on their property. So their
father asked them to remove it.

Speaker 14 (51:28):
And back in the fifties year, he didn't have the.

Speaker 19 (51:32):
The stuff to get it out easy. So they started
digging and they thought, daw, this is too hard. So
they had dynamite on the property.

Speaker 14 (51:40):
Yeah, so they put the dynamide in the bottom and
they thought, oh, look that's not enough, We'll put a
bit more. So they live it up and they're standing
around and then all of a sudden, the dynamite goes off.
Of the tree just went straight up in the air.

Speaker 5 (51:56):
Launch to the moon.

Speaker 14 (52:01):
And it went to a public King Manders and then
they were standing there watching it and then they thought, oh,
this is going to come down, so they took off
and yeah, just come down in a line and then
just you know, show over on the ground. But yeah,
we only heard about this story when my.

Speaker 19 (52:21):
Uncle passed away. Within the zoology that they were always tricksters,
that they were always doing something.

Speaker 6 (52:30):
Again, some of that coffin right now, one last bang
before you go bang them into the afterlife.

Near the June movies over the last couple of years

funny storytellers about arguments with producers and actors about his music.
It's called Hollywood Rebel Handzimmer Documentary. It's just fifteen minutes.

Speaker 3 (54:17):
