A Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 1 (01:42):
Hey, come on in Christian O'Connell's show. It is June
the fourth, twenty twenty six, eight years ago, twenty eighteen.
June the fourth is one I began this show. It
is our eighth birthday today. Patsy and I are the
only original survivors. Pats, anyone else has fallen or gone
into the sawn of business. And you can't hold back

(02:04):
a guy whose heart is in the backyard sort of business.
You can't. You've got to let that canary fly. So
it pass.

Speaker 4 (02:11):
Happy birthday you too, mate, Well done to you, what
a mazing to us.

Speaker 1 (02:16):
Perhaps in honestly you've probably seen that this year has
been a very explosive year in breakfast radio. But it
feels like since I've been here for eight years, it's
always explosed dive for breakfast ratings. Striking off eight years
is like eighty eight human years in a sane job.
So today, on our show birthday, a gift to you
guys today is actually it's eight years to do in
the show and it's shown number one thy five hundred

(02:38):
and twelve, and I wanted to say thank you for
each of those shows, because that's what it takes to
build something. Hopefully that adds value in the morning to
people who've been part of the last couple of years,
or if you're new in Sydney, New and Melbourne, of
the last couple of weeks, the last couple of months.
You know, we build the show day in day out.
It isn't really about the last eight years to me,
it really is about the last one thousand and five

(02:59):
hundred and twelve. The quality of our lives is all
about how we show up the best we can every
single day. And that means you guys as well, doing
your time wasters. Time waste is a bit are eight
years old today as well, and so many amazing phone
ins and stories, so we really do make this show
together every single morning, and so I really wanted to
give you a gift for each of those one thousand,

(03:20):
five hundred and twelve shows. And I thought a couple
weeks ago when we were talking about when you were
a kid, what was fancy, and the number one thing
that came up was Vienetta's. And so actually on your birthday,
if you were lucky and you've been a very good kid,
you might have got a Vienetta. Today, you can have
a Viennetta on my birthday. So we have one thousand,
five hundred and twelve Viennettas to give away. Let's start, let's.

Speaker 3 (15:11):
Christian O'Connell show go On podcast.

Speaker 1 (15:15):
Christian, I moved to Australia four years ago. I didn't
know anyone from Ryan mackenzie. As cheese as it sounds,
it felt like your show was my only friends here
for a while. When I met my now wife and
she became pregnant, we had lots of drives and the
nearest maternity hospital which is about an hour and a
half away, we listened to a lot of the show.
It made us feel like we had friends here. Thank

(15:35):
you very much for the last four and a half years. Ryan,
what a lovely thing to say. Thank you very very much.
Let's also give some to Ryan and his wife. Also
to Craig Walton. Craig the bus driver, has I know
been here since almost the first shows Christian Havier's birthday
for the show. Been listening since I started driving buses

(15:57):
seven and a half years ago. Currently waiting to start
my next service this morning. Crack that bus got the
yard here, hence I'm tensing him my house some Viennette. Yes,
of course you can, Craig Vanessa Chopra recognize the name. Yes,
thank you for all your sport over the years. Christian,
I can't call in them at work. I just had
to sneak off to the duney just to text you.
I love the honesty of this ash budgess in the

(16:20):
loo right now.

Speaker 6 (16:21):
Send the vina straight to the loo.

Speaker 1 (16:23):
Well slide them under that little gap of the men's cubicle. Ash,
Yes you can have some. And also Rebecca Rose, I
remember listening in the first month or two Christian in
twenty eighteen. Been listened since. It's been a nice daily
constant in life in a world that is let's stable. Beck.
Thank you very much. I love this one, John Christian.

(16:44):
When I was a kid, my mom and dad told
us that Viennetta was for snobs. I'd like to treat
my kids and my family pets included to a taste
of snobbery. I'll take a slough of Vinetta's off your hands.
Johnny Woy, Yes, plim the social ladder with us. All right,
let's do tombstone text. We do this every Thursday on

(17:05):
the show. Get your phone out about what is the
first text message that's at the top of your phone?
Imagine that is now your tombstone. What does it say? Perhaps?
What's your same.

Speaker 14 (17:13):
From my husband last night? Is your spot free?

Speaker 4 (17:17):
So on the school run every day, Audrey is a
bus traveler, but I go to the bus stop to
fetch her because she's the ways away.

Speaker 1 (17:25):
Anyway, In reality, what are we went ten yards?

Speaker 14 (17:28):
No, it's a couple of blocks.

Speaker 1 (17:30):
But I used to do that because actually they're exhausted. Yes,
you're not noticed that that our school bags were about
what two grams? Sane, it's about fifty kilos. Ridiculous invading
a country, it's insane.

Speaker 4 (17:46):
The spines, the spies, these kids, it's crazy anyway. So
she's the only one that gets off at her particular stop.
So normally I get like peak parking spot right next
to the bus stop.

Speaker 14 (18:00):
There's no other cars that I have to buy.

Speaker 1 (18:02):
Can someone someone's been told to put out cones. No
awful if I had to drive around the block, I'd
hate that to happen and then have your reputation destroyed.

Speaker 4 (18:11):
During my news, there's a new school mum who's I
don't know the sound of this story much or past tense.

Speaker 14 (18:18):
There was a school she's now disappeared on.

Speaker 1 (18:22):
She's sleeping with the mums.

Speaker 14 (18:24):
The issue I have.

Speaker 4 (18:25):
Is that it's not their stop, so you have to
use your stop.

Speaker 14 (18:29):
You can't be going around. She didn't, and she's taken
my spot, hasn't she?

Speaker 1 (18:35):
Wellga, this story does not have a good ending for.

Speaker 14 (18:38):
That intentionally getting there earlier than me. She keeps beating
me every day. I don't get there early enough to
get my spot.

Speaker 1 (18:45):
I love these stories of silent wars. We end up
getting involved with various people we do.

Speaker 4 (18:50):
I get there at a term a corner and there's
that black kea in my spot, and so I have
to go right over the other side of the road.

Speaker 1 (18:57):
Like complete could run up to ram.

Speaker 6 (19:05):
All these your ties to slash them.

Speaker 4 (19:07):
Sorry, so she's taking my spot, but she shouldn't be there.

Speaker 14 (19:11):
Because it's not her bus stop.

Speaker 8 (19:13):
But if she's there first, well, true, true, interesting she's
alpha you, Patsy.

Speaker 1 (19:19):
My wife. My wife would behave the same way. She'd
be getting so uptight during the day, worried about this.
She wouldn't be with ax pass.

Speaker 4 (19:27):
I might just on the way from home from work
in the mornings, like park leave the car there too.

Speaker 14 (19:36):
And then walk back to the car. Let's see her
shake my park today.

Speaker 1 (19:39):
I can app me out here. We've got a load
of air task of vouchers. You can put anything on there,
some oldest park and sit in that bay. Will do that.

Speaker 14 (19:50):
It's crazy crazy. Let's see her take my park today.

Speaker 1 (19:54):
You know what, you should get one of our truck
driver listeners to just park up their Yes, you messing
one of us, You mess with all of us. That's
the rule.

This is I says short lived comeback, a comeback kicking
a horse.

Speaker 6 (22:13):
Literally, don't call it a comeback because it's not a comeback.

Speaker 1 (22:16):
No, all right. The text, it's genuinely top my phone
is from Pats. It just says Andre, sorry about that.
For some reason I can't see, And I thought, is
that a safe word? Or is it tenique? Have? But
do you want me to send someone into the news
to Andre. That's what it said.

Speaker 4 (22:32):
It had an attachment and it wouldn't kept bouncing back.
I don't know why, but it was just eight birthday wishes,
that's all. And he is the number one ticket holder,
so I thought i'd forward that.

Speaker 14 (22:41):
To you and the team.

Speaker 1 (22:42):
Andre has been a supporter of this show from the
very very early days when I just had to pretend
that people liked the show. I genuinely did, because there
was a very little evidence of anyone actually enjoying it.
When all I was getting was a barrach of eight
mel not just during the show. People would call the
station when I wasn't even on air throughout the day,
I mean stewing on it. Yes, yes, happy eighth birthday,

a four X. So this week on Saber Pub here's
what we're doing. You've been telling us about your local
pubs that really could do with somehow and maybe there
this week we're giving them the good news. They get

ultimate reno. Right now, then we're about to give a
pub the good news. Nominated to buy Kevin. Kevin wrote

who need account helping hand. Jack, the owner with his parents,
got the pub in twenty twenty. Spoiler alert, we know

give the pub a real boost. He's on now with
us now, Jack, all right, Christian Jack, listen, I'm sorry
to hear the things have been tough for the last
couple of years, but it looks like a great place.
You're exactly who we want to try and help out

(26:09):
this is yes?

Speaker 17 (26:11):
Oh may I thought we were in a river competition.
We've we've already run it.

Speaker 1 (26:14):
No, no, no, no, no, oh no. We can't compete
pubs against each other. It's not a reality show. It's
a great pub you needa. How five thousand dollars?

Speaker 17 (26:22):
Thank you so much, mate, that's that's absolutely unreal.

Speaker 1 (26:25):
So jack you up, mammy. You look very young. How
old are you to be running a pub?

Speaker 17 (26:29):
Mate?

Speaker 18 (26:29):
I'm twenty five, and this is a lot to take on,
very like it is, but I am very fortunate my
parents and my uncle's they helped me out a lot,
and I'm in it with them, and.

Speaker 1 (26:41):
So yeah, there's a probably family business.

Speaker 17 (26:44):

Speaker 18 (26:44):
It is just my hot mold man has been a
been a publican for forty years and it's yeah, he's
big on family and big on community and so it's
it's just one big family affair the Inanity Hall Hotel.

It's love to this. It's beautiful and are you the
boss though?

Speaker 17 (26:59):
I currently a yeah, great, I love this.

Speaker 1 (27:02):
This is fantastic And so tell us about the part
because now you're on the show, you might want to
go have a drink this weekend. Support you guys, tell
us about what they can what they can expect when
they come.

Speaker 18 (27:12):
Well, mate, we're it's a pretty decently sized venue, very
old fashioned, you know, typical sports bar. We've got a
a lot of locals that come in, you know, have
a drink of a day, like to watch a sport. Upstairs,
we've got something for the younger crowd, you know, at nighttime.
We we've got a you know, we've got a DJ
that comes in. It's really something for everyone, no matter
who you are. If you're if you're an elderly couple,

(27:32):
you know, or if you're a young young family.

Speaker 17 (27:34):
You know, there's something for everyone.

Speaker 18 (27:35):
You can come into the kitchen, bring your children if
you're young, young kids my age, you know, you come
of a nighttime.

Speaker 17 (27:42):
Yeah, we've really tried to make it a place for
anyone and everyone.

Speaker 1 (27:45):
This is brilliant. Now, what are the specials at the moment?
If I'm coming down this weekend, or we've got listeners
who are going to come down, what would they have
this weekend? What do you recommend jack from the menu?

Speaker 17 (27:53):
Mate?

Speaker 18 (27:53):
My my two favorites. We've got a very very fairly
priced beef burger. I think it's around twenty five bucks.

Speaker 17 (28:01):
Massive. It comes with a lot.

Speaker 18 (28:03):
Of chips, beautiful salad, beautiful wagoo patty or I think
you know staple is obviously the you know, obviously you
know steak. I think the stakes are great, and we
do a beautiful We've got a little bit of a
Japanese fusion on it, so we do a beautiful katsu
snitzel with a beautiful Japanese curry sauce.

Speaker 1 (28:19):
Oh God, put me down for one of those. You
have me at katsu sauce. That's it. You should have
that on tap. I love catsuit sauce. A pint of katsu, please.

Speaker 17 (28:27):
I get it. With everything I've been to get a
bit of fish and chips.

Speaker 1 (28:29):
Sometimes yes, I get it. And then during the week,
do you have different theme nights? Did you a trivia night?
What else have you got going on?

Speaker 17 (28:37):
We had a poker night. We've got a Thursdays and Fridays.
At the moment. We've got a bloke that used to
play Minski's. He was a staple there for years.

Speaker 18 (28:44):
He's been doing piano nights for us upstairs on beautiful
Grand Piano Saturday nights is obviously you know, a DJ.
But what we're most excited to bring back is the
live bands we used to that was a staple of
the Unity Hall Hotel for years. Every Friday and Saturday
night we'd have live music from nine to twelve. That's
definitely something that you know that people people loved coming
into the live bands.

Speaker 1 (29:04):
Why don't for keeping that going, mate, because honestly, you know,
the last twenty years, sixty percent of Australian pubs aren't
here anymore. And with that dying out, it's not just
place in the community like your part of them, you
know what your dad's worked in for forty odd years.
It's also the live music. So many great bands that
are some of the best bands in Australia all over
the world, they learned and learn how to play live

(29:24):
in the pub scene as well. It's a really important
thing to have live music. So well, don't for bringing
that back and protecting it as well.

Speaker 17 (29:29):
Jack, Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's that's the plant.

Speaker 1 (29:31):
That's the plan, all right, So well done. You really
deserve the five thousand. I really hope it works out
for you and your family and the uncles and mum
and dad as well, and you Jack as well. I
think you're going to make a big go of this.
Give the pub one more plug. They could come in
this weekend. You've got the microphone, you've got the platform.
It's all yours.

Speaker 18 (29:47):
Jack wouldn't mind saying quickly thank you to both four
X and obviously Kevin for nominating us. It's a pub
for everyone, whether you're a young family, young kids, or
you know an elderly couple.

Speaker 17 (29:58):
There's something for everyone at the area.

Speaker 1 (29:59):
Well, we're definitely going to pop in. Jack. I think
you're a you're going to do really well. Good on
you for what you're doing as well. All the best
and you a really deserve the five thousand dollars. Thanks mate,
Thank you guys so much for pleasure. Now we will
be popping in. Don't forget put me down for one
of those catsuis. Please will do.

Christian Connell Show Podcast.

Speaker 1 (30:20):
Christian Happy eighth show birthday. I am a new listener,
just started listening this year and you have not disappointed me. Wellow,
Luisa and Sydney. I aim to not disappoint put on
my tombstone.

Speaker 6 (30:38):
It's a good n by disappoint.

Speaker 1 (30:42):
So far, but it is only the early days of
June so far. Wow, I want to get that framed,
I am. I have a court board in my home
office and it puts emails like this there that really
just make me laugh just to wording there and new listener,
you have not disappointed. It's like there's a part, Luisa,
there was a part of you that wanted to be disappointed,

(31:04):
and it's actually slightly disappointed that the replacement for Jones
in Amanda isn't that disappointment. But anyway, most of morning, Luisa,
welcome to the show. Thank you very much for giving
us a go. And you like seeing Vienetta reminds you
and your husband of the KOs Seal dumb KOs deal,
dumb back in the day Chaosine. I think it was
Pizza Hut, some kind of a trial thing before they

(31:24):
saw this huge appetite for Vonetta's. Yes, you can have some. Christian.
My son is turning fourteen in a couple of weeks.
He is a police officer. I would love to embarrass
him by turning up at the station with some Vonetta
for the shift and his colleagues. Could you help this?

Speaker 6 (31:39):
Yes, yes, did you say he's fourteen?

Speaker 1 (31:42):
Fourteen? Fourteen year old? But maybe to catch some of
those teenage wounds. You hire a poacher to catch a poacher?
Are you listening to me? Police forces of Australia hire
the teenagers to catch the teenagers. The police are recruiting
who's to catch wounds? This in new policy. I think

(32:03):
there's something in that. Christian is from Christian and the team.
Congratulations in eight years as sharp been listening since way
back when you and Jack did an afternoon Friday afternoon
test rum before the show started on Monday, and you
were giving away rugs. Oh, I don't remember the rugs
and I think that's maybe an act of kindness. What

(32:25):
do you remember?

Speaker 14 (32:26):
That was the first thing we gave away.

Speaker 6 (32:29):
It was a rug.

Speaker 4 (32:29):
And I remember when the first day you came into
the studio, they'd put the sales team.

Speaker 14 (32:33):
And put one under your chair.

Speaker 8 (32:35):
There.

Speaker 1 (32:35):
That's it.

Speaker 14 (32:36):
It wasn't even like a full rug. It was like
a Mets rug.

Speaker 1 (32:39):
It was a cheap rug that did disappoint Christian Sada.
It is one of my best efforts. I never won
that rug. The emotional scars remain. But Christian, I am
now in charge of staff morale at the primary school
and have thirty eight staff to keep motivated teachers, admin staff,
integration aids, before and after school care staff, the whole team.

(32:59):
Is it too greedy to ask not for a rug
but for thirty eight vinettas, one for each Christian? I
genuine believe a personal Vinetta for each staff member would
solve at least seventy three of my workplace issues and
dramatically improved morale. I can see Nicole coming while you're
in charge. It's a tough gig keeping everyone going, and

(33:19):
I reckon, we appreciate, we appreciate you as what a
vinetta says. Thank you so much, Christian, Can I have
some vnesa's Yeah, you can have thirty eight.

Speaker 8 (33:29):
Well we've got to do multiple seven, so seven six
forty two that should cover them.
