Reporse got six at nine Man Mountain bouncing on a
child champoline before a show to awaken the tramp within.

Speaker 4 (04:19):
Well, maybe you.

Speaker 8 (04:20):
Could just leave it here and everyone could get on
it before the show, like to vibe bib us all up.

Speaker 2 (04:25):
So what you're saying, everyone's a little bit quiet, right,
I know what you mean. You were looking at somebody
that's out there in the backroom. I know shows. We
should just have it there, Tina, get on the trampets,
all right, Let's play a song and then we get

Speaker 4 (04:48):
Christian O'Connell Shower go on podcast.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
Every Friday, we kick off then we call it double
thumbs Up. We go around the team and we talk
about the things that we're into the moment, so that it
might be a TV show that you want to watch tonight.
The hardest conversations you have in a family often a
Friday and Saturday night. What are we going to watch
that actually everybody is happy with and normally then to
get like you know, sign off by committee, something dilute
to wed.

Speaker 6 (05:11):
No one.

Speaker 2 (05:14):
And you're all really begrudgally watching it in sidon we're
to get and we're spoilt now because there's so much choice.
There's a golden age right now. It's some really really
great TV.

Speaker 1 (05:26):
All right, So what have I enjoyed at the moment?

Speaker 2 (05:28):
Then brilliant three part documentary produced by Guy Ritchie. Oh,
I think I know diamond heist. I really want a
true story of a diamond heist that was attempted in London.
At the end, it was called the Millennium Dome, just
on the cusp of the Millennium in two thousands.

Speaker 1 (05:45):
Three part documentary and if.

Speaker 2 (05:48):
They'd pulled it off, this would have been the world's
biggest heist. It's fairly believable how they.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
Thought they were going to get away with it.

Speaker 2 (05:55):
And what's amazing is the documentary is very very well done.
But the real the real person that they found is
one of the gang, the main gang leader who served
years in prison for doing this or trying to do this,
him talking about it all. And then they've got the
real his counterpart, this detective who is trying to stop them.

Speaker 6 (06:12):
Oh, you've got the time.

Speaker 2 (06:15):
That's such it's three parts. It's so good.

Speaker 6 (06:18):
It sounds like a Guy Richie No totally.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
At one point there's footage from two thousand of the police
talking about this crime where they go what somebody else,
some sort of Guy Ritchie movie week to camera. It's
produced by Guy Ritchie twenty years later. But it's just
three parts, but it is so good. It's brilliant. Yeah,
Diamond Heist is very good. And then a great great
new drama watching at the moment on Prime Better Sister,

(06:43):
that is very very very good. Cannot recommend that enough.
I haven't heard about it. It's so good that I've
sent an email to a pr tea and going, hey, listen,
this is only once a week to the muggles.

Speaker 6 (06:54):
Oh, I mean all the chips.

Speaker 2 (06:59):
I can binge it all week this weekend. It's very good.
It's on Amazon Prime, brilliant Who Done It?

Speaker 1 (07:04):
Sick?

Speaker 2 (07:04):
And it does that thing you know, with very very
brilliant dramas that are who Done It? Where it sets
up so many red herrings. No, it's definitely the other sister.

Speaker 1 (07:14):
Oh my god.

Speaker 2 (07:14):
No, it's a shady boss.

Speaker 1 (07:16):
Oh my god.

Speaker 2 (07:16):
No, it's the housekeeper that hates that rich woman. And
you're like, there's about twenty two suspects in this. You've
got no idea what's going on. And then however, they've
got what's his name from Stranger Things. Matthew Modine, Oh yeah.

Speaker 1 (07:28):
Straight White said, so this guy's in it.

Speaker 10 (07:31):
He did it.

Speaker 2 (07:32):
There's no evidence.

Speaker 1 (07:33):
I'm telling you now, you don't call it.

Speaker 2 (07:35):
Papa, that big white hair of his.

Speaker 1 (07:37):
He's an odd ball in everything is deep.

Speaker 5 (07:42):
Enough.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
Papa did it. He's always up to no good, that guy.
So that's what I love rio. What's it for you?

Speaker 7 (07:48):
On Netflix? I was watching Quilters. You might have seen
it come up on the front page a lot.

Speaker 2 (07:52):
They keep trying to feed it to me.

Speaker 7 (07:54):
Yes, they eventually gave in it's the perfect length documentary.
It's only half an hour, so it doesn't require.

Speaker 6 (07:59):
Much of you.

Speaker 2 (08:00):
But it is beautiful.

Speaker 7 (08:02):
It is about a prison in Missouri where they've started
a program and these are like hardened criminals, like proper,
proper criminals, and they've started a program where they make
custom made quilts for foster kids for their birthday.

Speaker 1 (08:15):
What a lovely thing to do.

Speaker 6 (08:16):
Yes, so they've got you know, this huge hulking men.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
I didn't know that's what it's about. Yeah, I saved it.

Speaker 2 (08:22):
I thought it was a competition for people that make quilts.

Speaker 1 (08:26):
No like quilches. I didn't wear that a story behind it.
I watched that this weekend.

Speaker 6 (08:30):
It's beautiful. It's beautiful, and it's this beautiful sort of.

Speaker 2 (08:33):
I'sn't got like notes hidden inside the quilt.

Speaker 1 (08:35):
They're like, get me out.

Speaker 2 (08:37):
There's twenty last year, there's twenty last year.

Speaker 1 (08:40):
Get me out.

Speaker 2 (08:42):
Oh there's a message in this quilt, get me out
twenty last year. If you can do it.

Speaker 7 (08:47):
But they take it so seriously and they put their
whole heart into it. It's changed their life and for them,
a lot of them came from foster homes and broken homes.
So to be able to give back in that way.
It's so moving. It's just long enough. It's perfect. It'll
warm your heart.

Speaker 2 (09:01):
Okay, we're going to take a quick break. When we
come back, we come back with Pantsi's double thumbs up.

Speaker 4 (11:17):
Christian O'Connell show go on podcast.

Speaker 2 (11:20):
Yesterday we had some incredible stories. We were looking for
your stories. Have you ever been in a lineup? When
I mentioned two days ago to my wife I was
thinking about doing this, my wife went, no, one's going
to call in. Yeah, rightly so, but oh, Sarah, I
was so smunky yesterday evening, not just did they call
in amazing stories.

Speaker 1 (11:40):
Kicking off with a Lisa, my.

Speaker 11 (11:41):
Husband's been in what you might call an audio lineup,
who was about thirteen years old, just started high school
and him and his mate wag school, went down to
the Milkar. During that time, somebody has done a bomb
scare at the school, so trying to sneak back into
school and got caught. They had to go into the
office and talk on a phone and say over the

(12:04):
phone there's a bomb in the school. A voice liner
and so then the odd receptionist is like, yep, that's them.

Speaker 2 (12:12):
I find that amazing, just so increable. You would just
put a fake voice, You're not going to do your
actual choice. So they're going to beat Jamaican voices, Irish voices,
basically any other voice of the one they're looking for
so you're looking for a child's voice, you're.

Speaker 1 (12:27):
Not going to get there.

Speaker 2 (12:28):
How stupid I think those kids are that's smarter than that.
And then this is an incredible story from Nick yesterday,
his story about being involved in not one, but several
lineups with.

Speaker 10 (12:37):
The mid nineteen nineties in the UK impoverished first UNI students,
just walking the streets of the city center and approached
by a policeman and asked to accompany him to the
station and did the lineup and was paid ten pounds.
Then actually went on to make a career of it,
did about six across my university years. The issue after
the first one was I left with my ten pounds

(12:59):
and walking the streets to get back to the university accommodation.
Somebody tried to mut me for the ten pounds.

Speaker 2 (13:06):
All right. Then we also missed off the most attaining
a bit of that where he had to do a
lineup where he was given a faint mustache.

Speaker 8 (13:12):
That's a bit of sticky tape.

Speaker 2 (13:13):
Yeah, it's better that we just come in second half.

Speaker 1 (13:16):
It readsat it.

Speaker 2 (13:17):
Yeah, thirteen fifty five, twenty two your stories, But have
you ever been involved in a lineup?

Speaker 1 (13:23):
Colin?

Speaker 2 (13:23):
We didn't have time for you yesterday, so we've got
you back on Good morning.

Speaker 12 (13:27):
Good morning guys. I picture this. It was the mid nineties,
cruising around Corefield helping a mate move. So there was
all this stuff piled into a van and there was
three of us in the van get pulled over by
the police, thinking this doesn't look good and they said, no, no, no,
you haven't done anything wrong. Can you help us out

(13:47):
for an hour? We want you to do a lineup
U three. Now there was me early twenties, tall, skinny guy,
James who was a mary guy, probably early thirties, and
no other mate Adrian, who is a much older guy
let's just say, probably fifties or something. And were thinking, okay,

(14:08):
this is going to be an interesting lineup. So we
go down to Corfield Police station. The cops are great.
They were given us suit and drinks and everything, and
they said, right, there's probably about ten of us or
polled in this room from various different backgrounds and whatever,
and we're going to just bring you out into the offices.
It's not like in America where we're behind a screen

(14:31):
or anything. This is just in the open room and
so we all pile out We're waiting there about a minute,
and then from another room, this other guy comes out,
looking very nervous, and the cops go, I said to
the witness, you go for a walk and see if
you recognize anyone, and certain the end of walk up

(14:52):
and down, the guy down the other end was moving
around very nervous. Witness goes, yeah, I think I recognize someone.
The cops says, oh, can you point them out? God
points straight at me and said, that's the guy there.

Speaker 1 (15:07):
Now, I always wonted that would happen.

Speaker 12 (15:09):
Well, that was your reaction that you just had. Was
was my mate James's reaction. He's doubled over laughing in
this police line up, and the police are like, calm down, guys,
calm down.

Speaker 2 (15:21):
Are the odds? How lucky we on the other side.
We just found them outside. It was the main man
who shot JFK.

Speaker 12 (15:30):
And I'm like, hang on, I don't remember.

Speaker 2 (15:33):
Please hear that every day. No, no, guys, I want
to see the courts of this nd in front of
the old No. No, no, take my word, Fred. It
sounds funny. It sounds funny, but no.

Speaker 1 (15:43):
Mold, it's not me.

Speaker 12 (15:45):
Yeah, it wasn't funny at the time for me, but
it was for me mates.

Speaker 2 (15:49):
So what happened according from prison? Now from come you
didn't commit Christian, get me out of here?

Speaker 13 (15:54):
He for twenty two years, send money for both? So
what happened because I said to the company, what the
help I was, I'm money helping here for your mate.

Speaker 12 (16:06):
And now he goes, no, no, no, he's all right.
That was the other guy.

Speaker 5 (16:09):
It's just disguised.

Speaker 1 (16:11):
You're right to go.

Speaker 2 (16:13):
Also, just doing it out in the office, I just
presume you have that with that sort of one way window,
you know, rather just looking around, otherwise you could identify
that point of the person.

Speaker 1 (16:21):
Oh no, that's Pete, he's on reception.

Speaker 2 (16:24):
Well Pete did it. Then Lady in Plaine View at

Christian, I'd watched Jim in heightst as well. It's very good.
Then watched Mobland. I really enjoyed Mobland. Christian TV shows.
I've got to first, there's a Bergarak remake. Now Bergarak
used to be a TV show around for ten years.
It was on the New ukun of Sunday night. It
was also on over here, I believe on Channel seven.
This was a detective show called Bergak, named after the

(16:59):
detective Jim Bergerack.

Speaker 1 (17:01):
Great theme tune. My mom and dad loved the show.

Speaker 2 (17:06):
As I became a cynical teenage, I was watching the
show that we've been watching for years every Sunday night.
He was a detective on a small island population of
about eighty thousand people. There was enough crime on this
island to sustain ten years of a TV show, And
now I was trying to compare, like, whatever suburbs and
small places around Melbourne have got eighty to ninety thousand

(17:27):
people live the Weribee, right, Actually you could have a
ten year and one hundred year show about we Abe
thirty thirty. Is that the post co parts?

Speaker 8 (17:37):
Yeah, No three zero, two four. But it was a
bit like Our Blue Heelers was like that. That was
a little bush.

Country town by so much crime.

They definitely are the first take because we've been going
through them. Man, there's a lot of yes, like or
dogs in the background, like false stars.

Last week I was meeting a friend for dinner and
I said, I met you were half six. He goes,
I'm not a farmer, so because I've got like a
you know what of U says, I could expect to
do a proper day at work on Friday. He's not
like knocking off at midday, just hanging around bars and

(26:26):
restaurants looking for drink because you know, we're at seven.
And so I was like, look, i'll get there at
half six. I got there a half sticks of chance
he might be early.

Speaker 1 (26:32):
He wasn't. I sat there with a kindle reading by myself,
ruining the vibe for everybody.

Speaker 2 (26:37):
They were like ladies out there, you know, enjoying their
weekend with a lone guy who screamed divorce. Actually, I
kept trying to show my wedding ring around like this,
and twice they said.

Speaker 1 (26:47):
I'm expecting Kindle.

Speaker 2 (26:51):
It's a real page flicker, isn't it. You got there eight,
that's a help. So what time would you go out?

Speaker 1 (26:56):
Then?

Speaker 2 (26:57):

skip the intro now, same with that BS we.

Speaker 7 (27:27):
Get from a couple of small plates, maybe one advertiser.

Speaker 2 (27:33):
Once we went to this place in Melbourne that shall
remain nameless, and this guy pulled a chair up to
our table all right and reversed it and sat face
at our level right and goes, what are we what
are we all doing tonight? I felt like share Away,

It was a bit late.

Speaker 7 (28:30):
We usually eat dinner at five five thirty, so that
was a bit late, but that was okay.

Speaker 1 (28:34):
What was the restaurant busy?

Speaker 2 (28:35):
Because when you go at that time, it's not even
half for it's just a staff annoyed that there's someone
there that had got to serve in the kitchen. Starft
got to start working early.

Speaker 7 (28:44):
There were about three other bookings and then the lady
sat us down and she said you need to be
going by seven thirty.

Speaker 2 (28:49):

Now I feel sorry for your Tina. Perhaps you get
loaded this right. So I came in SMATs to Tina,
how was your birthday dinner? She had to drive her
mum and dad to the birthday dinner. The old man
was smashing drinks, treat himself to an ice cream at
the end. This is not the way it should be
show as well. He should he should have put the
old limo cap on Chudg in the back of one
of his stretch limos.

Speaker 6 (29:21):
That was his excuse.

Speaker 8 (29:22):
He is driven all day, so it's my to dry

comes to you.

Speaker 1 (30:32):
You draw in the goodness.

Speaker 4 (31:47):
Christian O'Connell Show Gone podcast.

Speaker 2 (31:51):
Catch you up with my mum yesterday back in the Motherland,
and she saw Bruce Springsteen last week and he was
playing Liverpool, did a couple of nights at Liverpool. It's
the first time that the Boss has ever played Liverpool
at Hallow Turf for Vanfield Stadium.

Speaker 1 (32:03):
My mom was there.

Speaker 2 (32:04):
It's about the third or fourth time she's seen Springsteen.
And you know, we were talking about on Monday how
she told me that McCartney just came on towards the end.
It must have been incredible. You're there, see Springsteen, you're
having a great time. Then Paul McCartney, you know, literally
the greatest son of Lopal rocks up. So my mum's
taking me all through it yesterday. And my mum's in
the mid seventies. And when your parents reach a certain age,

(32:27):
everything sort of starts to confuse them and that, and
I said that, and also they just they start to
become glass. And I'm sure this is on me glass
half empty or even like it's a dirty glass, or
even know whose glasses is not a coaster.

Speaker 1 (32:41):
So so that must have been amazing.

Speaker 2 (32:43):
You're seeing Springsteen and the McCartney comes on and she goes, well,
I was saying to a lot of people there who
were there as well, so I think this is planned.
Of course he wasn't, you know, because she said because
Bruce said, oh, you know, see you must have just
been driving around and they were doing a little bit
of back and forth.

Speaker 1 (33:04):
Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 2 (33:04):
I didn't have anything to do tonight, Bruce when I
heard you're playing in town, and couldn't sleep.

Speaker 1 (33:07):
So come along anyway.

Speaker 2 (33:10):
Of course she goes like, I have you got a
feeling they would have been rehearsed like, yes, said McCartney.
It's not really going to go driving around picking up
his sake out the paper. Do you know what, I've
got my guitar in the back of the van. I'll
just go and join in and do a couple of songs.

Speaker 7 (33:25):
And what a buzz killed telling you that around planned, planned,
don't clid.

Speaker 2 (33:30):
It, spread it on. So it goes around like a
Mexican anti wave. Rehearsely, don't fool us, tell us the truth.
You're here yesterday, don't fake it, fake you.

Speaker 1 (33:43):
And then it was like, must have been amazing.

Speaker 2 (33:45):
What do you do?

Speaker 1 (33:45):
She goes three and a half hours.

Speaker 8 (33:47):
Wow, that's insane.

Speaker 2 (33:49):
I'll tell you what though, it's a lot for my
seventy five year old mum, She said, do you know what,
it would have been nice if he did a break
in between, like an interprization. Real killer.

Speaker 1 (33:57):
The energy he's NonStop, right.

Speaker 2 (33:59):
I saw him two years ago in Dublin on this tour.
The best thing about it is it is just all
the hits, right, He's doing it for three hours. It
would kill it if he goes there. Listen, dumb, why
don't we just take off an hour? Everyone can get
us some snacks. I need to rest my feet. I'm
not getting any younger as well. And by the way
we have been on this world tour. It might look
like it's spontaneous, but we do. We've been rehearsing all

(34:20):
day as well. Just so anyone doesn't think any of
this is just made up. Spot All right, let's get
into this week's People's Playlist.

Speaker 14 (34:28):

Speaker 2 (35:05):
All right, People's played this year and control the newsic
every Friday from eight week. Give you a theme, you
pick up the songs this week sad news. Two great
legends of music were lost. Yesterday we talked about the
huge loss of the genius Brian Wilson and I hope
you're all playing streaming beach boys songs. Yesterday I was

(35:28):
and then two days before that soul and funk legend
Slice Stone also passed away. It's a family fair. What
a voice and what a sound fair, both of them
incidentally eighty two years of age. Oh really it could
be the new twenty seven stop. So today we want

(35:49):
to hold out big songs of family bands. Patsy, what
are you going with?

Speaker 8 (35:54):

Jackson five and can you feel it?

Speaker 2 (36:01):
This is what we're talking about Friday vibes. I can
turn it up.

Speaker 8 (36:05):
The best funny fact for your about Michael Jackson.

Speaker 2 (36:10):
I'll be careful. There's quite a few go around sing
a little bit sweaty. We actually like Springsteen McCartney.

Speaker 1 (36:17):
We really should. My mum was at right. We should
have rehearsed this.

Speaker 2 (36:20):
Funny facts depends they cover it up.

Speaker 1 (36:23):
It's not about that monkey, is it.

Speaker 8 (36:25):
He had enormous hands, as we know we've covered on
the show before. We all know when I met him,
huge hands like baseball gloves, ridiculous like wing that's.

Speaker 2 (36:34):
Not a fun fact that it's not those Okay, his
favorite food. How do you know that he saw in
those giant HANDSFC.

Speaker 8 (36:41):
He liked a bit of the Colonel.

Speaker 2 (36:43):
Okay, okay, that's okay, Now that's okay.

Speaker 1 (36:45):
How do you sight your sauce?

Speaker 2 (36:47):
Please, mister Google, Google was just made that up. Probably
there's no way Michael Jackson was stucking into a barking bucket.
I mean, we're never going to know. But they're doing
that big am Jay musical that's coming, isn't it. I
hope there's a scene where he's just duck into a
bucket of k or they've not done that story Justice
Rio Family Mans Family.

Speaker 7 (37:08):

Jackson five of our generation?

I'll get this message in from one of you. Felt
like it come from Pats, you know, one of those
bump stairs. Whatever our idea flailing around Maria Carey. So

(38:38):
we're asking for family bands, Mariah Carey, famous solo artists? Yes, yes,
I think does this person just love Maria Carey wants
to hear Fantasy this morning? Christian Urah Carey, greatest singer ever?
Maybe listen twenty four hours after one of the one
of the genuine greats, Brian Wilson.

Speaker 1 (38:55):
When you're coming in with greatest ever?

Speaker 2 (38:57):
Mean an incredible artist, Christian my fifty year old male isten.

Speaker 1 (39:02):
We're not dating each other. I don't need to know any.

Speaker 2 (39:08):
Ever.

Speaker 1 (39:08):
Curious Christion, my fifty old red blooded mail.

Speaker 2 (39:12):
Please can you play fantasy? I think her mum was
in the band.

Speaker 1 (39:16):
I'm not sure. Oh yeah, don't.

Speaker 2 (39:19):
I've got nothing else into the practick. Everything in a
bit of a live broadcast. So is this true? What's
Mariah's mum in a band with her?

Speaker 6 (39:27):
Nothing's coming up immediately, he's not thinking of.

Speaker 8 (39:32):
No, Whitney Houston's mom was.

Speaker 2 (39:36):
In fact, Whitney is a family member.

Speaker 8 (39:38):
No, that was an art. But Whitney Houston's mum was
one of Elvis's backup singers in Vegas.

Speaker 1 (39:43):
True.

Speaker 6 (39:44):
Yeah, under the Bridge.

Speaker 7 (39:45):
The choir in Chili Pepper's Under the Bridge is Anthony
Keetus's mom's church choir.

Speaker 2 (39:50):
This is all great, but we're moving further away from
Mariah Carefrey.

Speaker 6 (39:54):
Her mom doesn't seem to be in the song.

Speaker 2 (39:56):
From what I can do, I think he's confusing it
with some a minute, the team would just put this up.
This is Mariah with her mum, Patricia. This is caring
our mum singers together. Oh, I mean, where exactly do
you see this during the next hour of music out

(40:18):

Speaker 2 (44:19):
Christian, any chance you could play The Cause? I never
loved you? They're a great family band. Thank you from Susan.
I could, but then I'd go into a very deep
comba for the rest of my life.

Speaker 1 (44:30):
I've utter boredom.

Speaker 7 (44:31):
I haven't heard even the phrase the cause, though for
good reason history must move on.

Speaker 2 (44:39):
Nature of war is a vacuum. Shifty brother at the
back on drums as well, Jim. One of the dullest
interviews I ever did. I was excited to interview The Cause.
They suddenly an now beforehand was sick. I interviewed the
brother the drummer time we could go real slowly sometimes

(45:02):
must have some funny stories on matur Oh no, not really,
it's just so busy rehearrassing.

Speaker 1 (45:07):
Oh all the other questions that was actually Jim.

Speaker 2 (45:12):
Anyway, you don want to uphold you pack to rehearsals,
Jimmy boy Christ. What about playing Champagne, Super and Over.
Maybe you can remind the listeners what is this supposed
to sound like? It just based on what you've done
this week? Some listeners who aren't familiar with their work
or think that's how they sound. Charles, maybe I do
play Champagne and Super and Ova Dur on the next hour.
Very good point. Actually I don't get what they sound

(45:36):
bloody awful. All right. So last writing on the show,
I was talking about these questions at my eighteen year
old daughter. She came about home from university and she
had these three questions from me and we spent about
two hours going over them, and one of them was
a great one.

Speaker 1 (45:48):
Is this one what we haven't done yet?

Speaker 2 (45:51):
What's something that someone told you that change the trajectory?
Good word that of your life? You know, someone can
say something. Sometimes it might even be not intentionally. You
might overhear something or see something on TV and some
might say something in an interview, or someone just gives
you some advice and actually he does actually all to
the path of your life for me. When I was eighteen,

(46:13):
I was obsessed with getting into radio, and I'd done
a college radio show and I had what was called
what you Had to Put Together and You're still do
It now, called a demo tape.

Speaker 1 (46:20):
This actually was a cassette.

Speaker 2 (46:22):
And it was like two minutes of your best bits
and one of the greatest days of my life.

Speaker 1 (46:27):
I've got letter on down a post from my local
radio station.

Speaker 2 (46:29):
I loved Power FM, fifty thousand volts of music power
across the South Coast, and I was obsessed with this
radio station. I was like, what, that's my dream job.
It's a weird DJ for Power FM. The letter said
I'd been selected to come in from an interview by
the program controllers eighteen years wow. And I had to
go to my landline, the house, call the receptionist and

(46:52):
book an interview.

Speaker 1 (46:53):
In a week's time. Could barely sleep for a week's time.

Speaker 2 (46:55):
Anyway, I go in there and this lovely guy, Chris Carnegie,
the reason why I can still remember his full name,
Chris Carnegie Carnage, gave me some great advice. He said, look,
you're eighteen, I could put you on air. Right now,
but you'd have no life experience to talk about that.
We got people like you at the weekend and they're good,
but they're so boring. You are a storyteller, and I

(47:18):
told the story at the end of the demo. He said,
you need to go and live life to have the
stories and then come back in the radio.

Speaker 1 (47:23):
Don't get into radio.

Speaker 2 (47:24):
Now, will it will alter your how good you can
be because you need to go and do Go and
do some dead end jobs, to go to college and
get drunk and then figure it out and then get
back into it. So I was gutted. It meant, basically
he was saying, get out my office. It's only years later,
suck go and sweep some roads or something. Don't get

(47:45):
on the radio. But anyway, Chris Carnegie literally did. I
did go and do that, and I was the better
for it. You know.

Speaker 1 (47:52):
I went to university and then.

Speaker 2 (47:53):
Graduated with a huge debt and worked in Teddy sales
and lots of various jobs for years, and it was
so much better for me when I did manage to
get my way back into radio. So yeah, it literally
change everything for me. Inadvertently, he wasn't giving me what
he wants at the time, but actually sometimes in life
you think you're ready, but you're not ready. And it
wasn't what I needed. What I needed to hear was

(48:14):
go away and live life and then come back to it.

Speaker 1 (48:16):
You'll be better for it.

Speaker 6 (48:17):
How many years was it between that and then seven?

Speaker 1 (48:19):
Seven?

Speaker 2 (48:20):
Woll seven? And also during that seven years it just
felt impossible, like that was the closest I'll ever get
to working in the radio station. And I remember meeting
my now wife and I was like, you know, I
want to work in radio. You know, I'm working in
sales and much. She goes, what are you doing about it?
I went, Shea's, no, one's going to knock on the
door the way you wait it is that they're going
to knock on the door begging you, begging your time,

(48:42):
just your.

Speaker 1 (48:42):
Time right out.

Speaker 2 (48:43):
She said, you've got to get after it, and so
she also altered the course of it as well. Perhapsy
what's it for you?

Speaker 8 (48:47):
Yeah, it's funny. Mine's kind of similar in that what
sort of spurs you on can be what you really
don't want to hear. And mine throughout my life it's
happened probably four or five times, is when someone has
said to me, you'll never do that, or you can't
do that, or girls don't do that. And that started
with my careers to at school who when I went

(49:10):
to him and said, I want to do this radio course.
I want to be a news reader and they only
took like twelve across the country, right, and he said, oh, yeah, no,
you're not going to get into that. You know, you
need to do an arts degree. I said, I don't want.

Speaker 1 (49:23):
To do an agree So we said that because you're
a girl.

Speaker 4 (49:26):
Yeah, he said, well.

Speaker 8 (49:27):
You know girls, girls aren't on the on the radio.
And that just just lit a fire, a massive inferno
in my guts.

Speaker 2 (49:34):
Thank god you took it that way though, and use
it as a fuel. Oh I had to you could
have killed what would have been a great loss to
the indunet.

Speaker 8 (49:41):
No, I wasn't going to listen to that. And whenever
one said anyone says to me you're not going to
do that or you can't do that, I somehow have
to prove them wrong. So I'll make it my mission
to actually not only do it, but do it doubly
as good. So thank you to him, because yeah, he
spurred me on, and I thought, well, I'm going to
show you because I know I can do it, and

(50:03):
I'm going to do it.

Speaker 6 (50:04):
So watch me do it.

Speaker 2 (50:05):
And you did, and I did, and you're still doing
it and I'm still you. Hope to God that they're
not putting off women for mentioning.

Speaker 8 (50:12):
Radio now, surely not in this state now, I mean
that's a long time ago. That was like nearly forty
years ago. I'd like to think it's different.

Speaker 2 (50:18):
Now. Why do you go all she's allowed to have wisdom,
you know, four years on now there's men just saying
that you' nothing changes.

Speaker 8 (50:26):
You will bow down?

Speaker 2 (50:27):
Yeah, you will. Listen, she didn't mention that guy's name
because he's dead. He is actually no, no, she buried him.
She buried him, and all those others are doubted her.
Now we ain't seen you Monday, mate. You've had a
good couple of weeks.

Speaker 6 (50:38):
But it is over come to me. In forty years
will I will?

Speaker 2 (50:42):
Yeah, then she'll have a chat with you. All right,
We're we'll find out from Rio's next. What's the answer
to you? Then someone who said you gave you some
advice that actually changed the path of your life.

Speaker 4 (50:52):
The Christian O'Connell Show podcast rio.

Speaker 2 (50:56):
What's a piece of advice someone gave you that changed
the path of your life.

Speaker 7 (50:59):
I remember a very specific phase when I was probably
about fourteen or fifteen, And maybe this won't come as
a surprise to you, but it was a phase what
I was becoming increasingly arrogant, obnoxious, rude.

Speaker 6 (51:12):
I remember picking five thank you.

Speaker 2 (51:16):
I remember.

Speaker 1 (51:17):
These are phase we all go through, though, isn't it.

Speaker 5 (51:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (51:19):
I remember at the dinner table, like deliberately picking arguments
with Mum just to sort of, I don't know, just
to get a rise out of her, and just to
sort of, I don't know.

Speaker 2 (51:28):
My daughters are still in that phase eighteen and twenty yea, yeah, constantly,
constantly just picking fights or trying to sort of gold
me into flipping out.

Speaker 6 (51:37):
Yes, yeah, just leading you into this beare baiting, yes, exactly.

Speaker 2 (51:40):
Oh this is another thing men do We're learning about
this university, paying for the university, And.

Speaker 7 (51:47):
I remember at one point Mum saying I don't like
I don't like the person you're becoming at the moment,
but it's from your mum, and you you don't take
it seriously. I had this English teacher I really admired
mister Stockbridge, who i'd had in you seven nine and
then eleven and I remember after class he just pulled
me aside and in a very Australian way, he just goes,
you're a.

Speaker 6 (52:07):
Smart kid, you'd you don't need to be a wanker.

Speaker 2 (52:10):
Oh wow?

Speaker 7 (52:11):
And it just coming from someone who you respect and
isn't your parents.

Speaker 2 (52:15):
I remember it. But what a great attitude readjustment, because
you could have said nothing, but what a great thing
to just cut through the bs and go, don't go
down this path.

Speaker 1 (52:22):
You're better than that.

Speaker 12 (52:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (52:24):
Did you take it at that point?

Speaker 7 (52:25):
Yes, because it really sideswiped me and being from someone
that isn't your parents and someone you really you know,
out of that inner circle.

Speaker 6 (52:32):
Yeah, I went, oh my am I? Am I a waker?
And then I remember thinking, yeah, I'm a bit of
a wanker.

Speaker 2 (52:39):
So did you change? Did you change?

Speaker 1 (52:40):
Then? Definitely?

Speaker 7 (52:41):
And it's still kind of hangs with me now sometimes
am I being a but on a post.
