Speaker 1 (00:09):
I Heeart podcasts.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
You can hear more gold one I four point three podcasts,
playlist and listen live on the free iHeart app.

Speaker 3 (00:18):
Got anything good?

Speaker 4 (00:19):
Hey, this is the Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 2 (00:27):
So yesterday evening I got a surprise about three o'clock
in the afternoon. Both my daughters said, hey, we really
miss you and Mum, we want to come back for
dinner tonight. What an unexpected treat that was. So I
was like, great, okay, what do you want me to
do for dinner? And then there was like two different answers.
One was that I wanted Sanya. One was like, can
you make your homemades bag ball? So I thought, I

(00:48):
do both. I think I've accidentally created a brand new
in home dining experience.

Speaker 1 (00:54):
It's a buffet.

Speaker 5 (00:55):
Oh, I love a buffet.

Speaker 1 (00:57):
At when my.

Speaker 2 (00:58):
Wife came back to Chris, what the hell have you done?
You got two meals here? I was like, I didn't
know which to do. I've done both ways.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
But there's chips here randomly as well.

Speaker 2 (01:06):
Oh, I'll get it wrong. And two said prett salads
because they don't they both like one lights coldslaw that
with loads of mail and stuff then the one just
likes a nice loosely green salad with olive oil and
a little bit.

Speaker 1 (01:16):
Of a balsammit glaze.

Speaker 4 (01:18):
Gorgeous.

Speaker 1 (01:19):
So there was two salads randomly, some chips.

Speaker 2 (01:21):
I think they were just for mesh and the spag
bowl and then the worst. But about if you if
you're cooking at home, and Alex and Patch will get
this as an adult.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
Is a clean up?

Speaker 2 (01:34):
You do all of that right for all that show
and everyone loved it. Everyone's for we take some of
those back with us to Union. We can have this
for lunch tomorrow. They you know, they just went to
bed and Sarah looks and we're like, you've credit all this?
Does that mean I've got to kill shows? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:52):
About almost an hour clearing up.

Speaker 2 (01:56):
If I cook as well, it's it gets messed. I
don't know how that back that the back splash, I
don't even know how does it get there? How does
it think was bubbling and toiling like a witch's cauldron,
but I'm not. There's spritter there and like it's a
scene from Dexter.

Speaker 6 (02:15):
Impossible to clean as well, because you're just smearing fat
where you can't actually get it off.

Speaker 5 (02:19):
Spray and white.

Speaker 2 (02:20):
First thing do do do pats. But I'll tell you
what stool is. You can't beat good old elbow grease
in those pots and bands. So is the rule if
you cook, you clean up or swamp?

Speaker 1 (02:30):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (02:31):
Okay? Well my wife said, look, you know, do you
want me to empty the bin and you clear up?
And I should have I said to her, yeah, you
empty the bin, And then suddenly she was she'd done
that with She played me out of the deal. What's
the it's ten seconds you've been I'm left for an
hour and now.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
Clearing up all this crap from the home buffet.

Speaker 2 (02:52):
I want to taken pages to cook, like, what's six dishes?

Speaker 1 (02:54):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (02:55):
Don't. I was so irritable as well. By the time
everyone turned up you could see the state I was in.
An even my wife said, let's put some on TV.

Speaker 1 (03:03):
Why dad?

Speaker 2 (03:03):
Just and then she looked at me like your man,
And also, no one asks you to two dishes.

Speaker 5 (03:11):
I love a buffet at home.

Speaker 7 (03:13):
Must perform if we have people over, if it's not,
if it's outside of us three, if we've got anyone over,
I'll do a few different dishes, but I put it
on the center island bench like you're at a real
and then you serve yourself at the bench and then
take your plate.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
Fakes were stacked like a buffet with the cutlery, glass
of water already there. I pulled wine from them as well,
and it was like a procession around a buffet. Just
move around like you at the buffet. Just keep it moving,
don't hover too long. At a certain station didn't have
dessert the buffet, No, the.

Speaker 1 (03:48):
Only thing I missed that And they were like, is
there anything now?

Speaker 2 (03:52):
And I expect a full buffet again.

Speaker 1 (03:58):
The home buffet is the way forward.

Speaker 4 (04:00):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
When you're clearing up after you've made dinner, lasagna is
the hardest thing to scrape off that dish or whatever
it is. Yeah, it's like it gets spot welded to
the side of the serving dish or plates.

Speaker 6 (04:16):
That is a soak job. That is you just put
it in there, water in there, leave it for two days,
come back to it.

Speaker 8 (04:21):
Now.

Speaker 2 (04:22):
What I will do is our ball the kettle. Soak
it for five minutes, soften up the kettle, kind of
ropo doop sick it works for the body. Then a
head back down to the body then the head and
then you get in. Then you really got it, and
you're making so much noise. Everyone's trying to watch TV.

Speaker 6 (04:38):
And I was like, sit down, and you ruined the
sponge because of the red.

Speaker 9 (04:44):
Yes, complete wreck and if you really guess what, you
gotta scratch it with your finger.

Speaker 2 (04:50):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (04:53):
Did you have a scrub daddy?

Speaker 1 (04:55):
Listen, I don't respect the scrub daddy. It's useless.

Speaker 2 (04:59):
I think it was lightweight and useless rubbish thing. No,
I'm with a good old they called Chucks.

Speaker 5 (05:06):
Oh yeah, no, wonder you were there for. What do
you use scrub daddy? No, no, Alex, I'm going to
bring you one in.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
They just use your nails if that's what you're doing
any more.

Speaker 2 (05:23):
Useless scrub daddy just sort of smiles.

Speaker 1 (05:25):
It's the children.

Speaker 5 (05:28):
The world's best scour.

Speaker 2 (05:30):
You're reading the marketing of the back of the part.

Speaker 5 (05:33):
They're great.

Speaker 7 (05:33):
Did I get the heavy duty one? You can get
a heavy duty one that's still okay for your you know, scratchy.
You can't scratch your cookwear stuff?

Speaker 2 (05:41):
Had you Pats is one of those old school sort
of nonas that have that what's that metal things? Mama
has one of those what is that a scour? No
one under the age of seventy. You're right, even the
word scour. Yeah, it's actually I never used to like
touching it.

Speaker 7 (05:58):
The old is it jets one and it's built in
with the pink, the pink detergent in it, and it's
really likes to take me back.

Speaker 1 (06:07):
It's like metallic bit hair.

Speaker 2 (06:10):
That is I don't mean mean rude, but it's the
only way to describe it.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
If a robot had pubes, it.

Speaker 2 (06:17):
Would be that.

Speaker 4 (06:18):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 2 (06:21):
Patty, I think I can see blood coming out of
your ears, which means that you must have had a
school night last night talking about year nine pathways. You
need a degree to just to try and understand how
to help your kids.

Speaker 7 (06:34):
Thank you so much for saying that it's Posi so
ards is year eate going into unite and it's this week.

Speaker 5 (06:40):
It's it's they've got to have their preferences.

Speaker 2 (06:42):
It's so much for the months and dads and the kids.
It's overwhelmed.

Speaker 5 (06:45):
It is overwhelming. Thank you. And you and Sarah are
very intelligent people.

Speaker 2 (06:50):
And I was sitting there one of us is and
it isn't me Sarah is and even she struggled.

Speaker 1 (06:56):
She was a former lawyer.

Speaker 2 (06:57):
She's she's the brains, yes, and I'm not even show
on the brawn, she's the brains on the more.

Speaker 1 (07:01):
But anyway, she and also.

Speaker 2 (07:03):
We we just moved to this country and we're like, sorry, what, yes,
do you do this in England?

Speaker 1 (07:09):
No, because we've simplified this.

Speaker 2 (07:13):
Oh it's so complicated.

Speaker 5 (07:14):
That and it's all I heard all night.

Speaker 7 (07:17):
All I took away from it was pathways, pathways, pathways.

Speaker 2 (07:21):
My plan assessments.

Speaker 5 (07:23):
We started talking in subjects.

Speaker 2 (07:25):
But also getting ready one eye on specialization and university courses.

Speaker 5 (07:29):
You know, it's too much.

Speaker 7 (07:31):
My head was exploding, Chris's head was exploding, and at
the same time you're also thinking, how did we get
to this point? She was like primary school last year.

Speaker 5 (07:39):
No, she wasn't. That's right, she's year eight.

Speaker 7 (07:41):
And then it's also further, it's like it's the slipping
through the fingers thing has suddenly accelerated, like it's on
steroids because now she's going into seeingior school. As you
can tell, my blood pressure is going up and it
is it's hard to get your head around it. And
it's also the pressure you feel the pressure for them.
She's fine, she knows exactly what she's doing.

Speaker 2 (08:03):
Well, that's great, that's the most important. But that weekly
change you and Chris? And also did you do did
they do like this slide show? Oh?

Speaker 5 (08:11):
Yes, yeah, I mean now a long slide show.

Speaker 2 (08:14):
Well, suddenly there's like eight blocks of like core subjects.

Speaker 1 (08:18):
It's like tetris.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
Slow it down, and then there's more coming in and
I'm like, I'm lost.

Speaker 1 (08:22):
Can we go about four slides?

Speaker 7 (08:24):
Do you know what I did? I got my camp.
We're in the front right because we were there.

Speaker 1 (08:27):
I did that. You film it?

Speaker 7 (08:29):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (08:29):
I think Chris is like, what are you?

Speaker 2 (08:31):
No?

Speaker 1 (08:31):
No, No, that's the best to you because then you
can rewind it.

Speaker 5 (08:34):
I'm not going to remember it.

Speaker 7 (08:35):
You know, you tell me something thirty seconds ago, I
won't remember what you said.

Speaker 1 (08:39):
And did you ask any questions at the end?

Speaker 5 (08:42):
No, No, you don't do that.

Speaker 1 (08:43):
I hate people that do.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
Well.

Speaker 7 (08:44):
I was sitting there, excuse me, and it was by
this time, it's like eight thirty, and I'm thinking of
any questions.

Speaker 2 (08:50):
Nights like that as parents, when going to the school
thing you're driving home, like I don't make any sense
like that we're having a glass of white nott.

Speaker 1 (09:00):
And it's just to cool your head.

Speaker 2 (09:02):
It's like your brain is a yes, short, I bet
you didn't go to sleep that well last night.

Speaker 1 (09:07):
You're overthinking it. Oh yeah, your brain's like it's like
a hamster fairest will. It's just that little will in there.

Speaker 5 (09:12):
It's like, oh, she wants to do drama, but will
that cut out that? And then laws? She wants to
do law. It's a lot of pressures.

Speaker 7 (09:18):
You got to do that and then that, and then
the teachers are saying the teachers were great, of course,
and say, you know, keep your options open, try a
bit of everything.

Speaker 5 (09:25):
And it's doesn't the pressure for you.

Speaker 2 (09:28):
Don't do too many subjects, too much breast, no specialization,
no specialization, too much bread.

Speaker 5 (09:34):
It's too much for mine.

Speaker 2 (09:35):
Do you know what when we were going that, you
know what I thought, blood, My parents wouldn't even come
to this sort of you know, end up in prison.

Speaker 1 (09:47):
My parents.

Speaker 2 (09:47):
I think our generation were the smartest. I just not
don't show up emotionally or physically.

Speaker 5 (09:56):
How's that going for us?

Speaker 2 (09:57):
Though? Well, I tell you how it's going for them.
Sleeping very solidly. If you think about our parents they
didn't have to take the amount the pills I have
to take now to get to sleep, magnesium galsine, Ashwa,
gander ail touring. I have to take a start like
five pills just to sleep with modern line. You know,

(10:17):
I never saw taking are of these. My mum and
dad slept very peacefully.

Speaker 4 (10:22):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 2 (10:26):
Christian Any baked on food is easy to get off.
Put the dishwasher, tablet in the dish, boiling water into
the dish. Move the tablet so it dissolves. Let it
stand for one hour. The BoNT on food. Great phrase,
by the way, that's what it's. The BoNT on food
will just evaporate fall away.

Speaker 1 (10:43):
Wow. Oh try that, Thank you very much. Keith.

Speaker 2 (10:46):
Just coming up from twenty five to seven. So Australians
in space.

Speaker 6 (10:52):
We bloody did it.

Speaker 1 (10:53):
We did it well. I don't know if you saw it.

Speaker 6 (10:56):
I saw it.

Speaker 1 (10:57):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (10:57):
Let me just read this headline. So yesterday I don't
know if you're aware of this, but Australia was trying
to launch a rocket into space. Headline here from Today's
Financial Review, as the newspaper always read before the show.
Australia's attempt at entering space last less than thirty seconds. Okay,

(11:18):
that's not And now I'm looking at the Guardian headline here.
All the wars were the cloud and that was.

Speaker 7 (11:24):
It like a burnout in the sky.

Speaker 1 (11:27):
Yes, in space.

Speaker 2 (11:35):
To Eski and beyond. Here's the new support of this
from yesterday.

Speaker 10 (11:39):
The first Australian made rocket to launch on home soil
has crashed and burned just seconds after liftoff. But despite
the spectacular explosion, the Queensland company in charge says it
will be back for another attempt.

Speaker 1 (11:51):
Queensland, it really is bogus.

Speaker 6 (11:54):
And you don't think necessarily like cutting edge, you know, you.

Speaker 2 (11:58):
Don't think you know, you don't think you've got the
billionaire boys, haven't you will? You've got like bezos and
musk Queensland. It's not the Silicon Valley of Australia. It's
no just suspect Queensland. But you know, so did you
see it? Sort of there was like a lot of
smoke and then it's sort of the sort of fell over.

Speaker 1 (12:17):
It barely got off the launching pad. Well, I'm looking
at the new support here.

Speaker 2 (12:20):
The key line that I've highlighted is it flew for
fourteen seconds before losing thrust That's how it's his wedding
night telling me that story when we first met. Have
it into this from some nerd that was filming all No,
it is.

Speaker 1 (12:36):
I didn't.

Speaker 2 (12:37):
Also Lockie, who is a very talented sound architect on
the show.

Speaker 1 (12:42):
He's into anything.

Speaker 2 (12:44):
Thrusty f one and rockets. He knows who this nerd is.
It's crazy, you know, Lockie was off last week sick.

Speaker 1 (12:54):
I reckon it was him up there. It loves to
have more flight time.

Speaker 2 (12:59):
But sorry, this is a guy from the actual company.
Listen to this guy trying to get in front of
this story, actually trying to own it as No, this
is great, No, this is what meant to happen.

Speaker 1 (13:08):
This is the best thing.

Speaker 9 (13:09):
I would have loved to have more flight time, but
I think fourteen seconds is something I'm willing to be
very happy with.

Speaker 1 (13:14):
For the first attempt.

Speaker 2 (13:16):
Well, thank god Neil Armstrong and his mates weren't didn't
have that expirit about.

Speaker 1 (13:20):
Them at fourteen seconds. It's great.

Speaker 2 (13:22):
We can build on this.

Speaker 6 (13:24):
He also said, there's a quote here. They asked him
why it was so like such a failure, and he said,
space is hard.

Speaker 1 (13:34):
It's hovering.

Speaker 2 (13:35):
It's hovering, it's hovering. This is some nerdy filmed at all.
There was no other nerds filming or just this one guy.
Apparently the video he gets so excited he knocks his
own tripod over, so he lost a lot of space.
It's hovering, it's hovering, it's hovering.

Speaker 6 (13:53):
It's gone, it's gone.

Speaker 1 (13:56):
Ah No.

Speaker 2 (14:04):
If I had to sum up in just one phrase,
the d season, ah no that ah no.

Speaker 4 (14:15):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 2 (14:18):
Now, this is exciting. Every single day this week we
have had Ed sharing tickets. They're on sale right now,
Fronted Touring and MG Live bringing Ed Sharon back to Australia.

sale now head to Fronted Touring dot com. We've got

(14:42):
a pair to give away next. Now before you call him,
there's no point calling him right now. You don't even
know how you're gonna win it now. Not many people
know this, but Ed Shearing likes to give back and
obviously he's made millions. What do you do with all
that money? He actually in his property. He's obviously got acreage.
He has a petting zoo and like a wildlife sanctuary,

(15:04):
and he's always up early listening to the show on
the iHeart platform, And I know for fact he just
messing me saying, listen, I've got a spare a couple
of minutes. I'm feeding the animals right now. So coming

If your Ed Sheering ticket giveaway, why not get four
people in the studio see what's the quickest to shave
their own head. The game is called head shearing Martin.
It's a good idea. It's a very good idea. I
just feel sorry for the three other people that don't
get them, who are leaving with like mohawks or mullets.

Speaker 4 (23:21):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 2 (23:24):
What is a small thing that gives you big joy?
That's what we're into now. You can text me oh
fall seven five three one oh four three, that small
little thing that gives you so much back. Yesterday for me,
it was going for a walk with the dog for
an hour. It was actually despite yesterday, it was quite fresh.
I could wear a T shirt and shorts. That winter

(23:45):
here is just like summer cheesy in the UK. I
went for a walk for an hour just in T
shirt and shorts with the dog, and it was no
the sun was out.

Speaker 5 (23:53):
It was a beautiful day.

Speaker 2 (23:54):
Oh my god, it's a blessing. What about one o'clock
went for an hour? Oh my god, it was such
a gift costume nothing, it'd go for walk. Do you
know what's sad though? Wor it's two things about this?
Maybe that I even kept a note of how many
people did this in my hour long walk. I saw
twenty seven people. Now I was doing a survey, right,
Just that I always say hello to everyone I see
when I'm out on a walk. It's a small thing

(24:16):
when someone says low back. It just says I see you,
you see me. It's a tiny thing and it gives
you a lot of joy. So twenty seven people I
saw in an how long dog walk? How many people
do you think said hello?

Speaker 1 (24:26):
Back? Twenty seven six?

Speaker 5 (24:30):
Justid a half strike?

Speaker 1 (24:31):
Right?

Speaker 6 (24:33):
Are they looking straight at you and just not saying anything?

Speaker 1 (24:36):
Yeah? Do you know what the motion that is?

Speaker 5 (24:39):
Who's intimidated because they recognize you and people.

Speaker 2 (24:43):
Palk? It is tiny day.

Speaker 4 (24:46):
Wild.

Speaker 1 (24:49):
It's just like us picking up his dog poop and
one of those green bags. Can you do it to us?

Speaker 4 (24:56):
And see?

Speaker 15 (24:56):
Now?

Speaker 2 (24:57):
I tell you what why it was. They've all got
your headphones on and you're missing out the point of
the walk. Now. I listen to so many podcasts and
audiobooks and something like that, but when I go on
a wal, I don't want any of that because you're
locked in the head box, which is where we lived.
Spend too much time in our heads right, overthinking, overthinking, overthinking.

(25:17):
On a walk, you want to be when you're the
gift is being out there in nature, the sun, the
air and seeing other humanoids. Rather than these people weren't
even aware of.

Speaker 1 (25:26):
Me saying hello, Yeah, they just would have thought you'd Mimi.

Speaker 2 (25:29):
Lost it and it was really sad they miss out
and a little bit of joy as well.

Speaker 1 (25:35):
Just hang hello back.

Speaker 5 (25:36):
It costs human connection.

Speaker 2 (25:38):
Yes, there's a gap that is opening up. Honestly, I
think there's a gap now in connection. We're all in
a little headspace as too much and blokes can't do
two things at once.

Speaker 9 (25:47):
You can't take in your surroundings and listen to something,
Maibe can I.

Speaker 2 (25:52):
I'm parking the car, I have to turn. I have
to get the volume has zero turned down. If I'm
driving somewhere new right, it's around it somewhere that they
have to turn the you have to sound. Whatever I'm
listening to has to be off. I can't pro there's
more than one thing. And yeah, on my computer here

(26:12):
that are over about twenty seven tabs open right now, Alex,
what's it for you, mate?

Speaker 1 (26:17):
What's the small thing that gives you a big joy?

Speaker 9 (26:19):
So we lived in a suburb in Sydney and they
had this cafe that was right on the road and
a lot of people used to sit just sort of
facing the road and there were these car parks out
the front and that was sort of the only place
you could park on a busy day, so there was
a lot of pressure on you to get it right
in front of these people with your reverse park. So
I was like, oh God, here we go. And I

(26:39):
used to get so nervous and sometimes I'd get it
perfectly right in front of these people.

Speaker 2 (26:45):
The reverse park just slitty. It's a sweet spot when
you do that, and you know that people they can't
help us on nod the headlight yeah yeah, yeah, and
I'd just get out of the car.

Speaker 1 (26:56):
It's a pressure shop.

Speaker 2 (26:57):
There'd be a nod and they'd give a nod back. Yeah. Yeah.
So what happened at the seven o'clock sport this morning?
You obvious hit the curb with that one, did you. Yeah?

Speaker 1 (27:04):
I don't know what happened.

Speaker 2 (27:07):
That was a ten point yeah you know? Was that's
that film with.

Speaker 1 (27:18):

I'm gonna. I'm not ever going to use the self
serve again.

Speaker 1 (27:44):
What did you like about it? Oh my god.

Speaker 2 (27:46):
It takes all the pressure off.

Speaker 6 (27:47):
You don't have to worry about hitting that barcode perfectly.
They're pros as well, so they will actually pack your bag.
They do it so quickly and you don't have to
do that thing where like you miss it or you
put the wrong thing and then you have to get
a lot less stress.

Speaker 7 (28:00):
And they hover over you like you're about to steal something.

Speaker 2 (28:03):
You're right, I made a mistake the other day and
they go to the video VR. There's a camera above myhre.

New owners have ruined it. It's there's it's it's touch
and go with new owners, isn't it. How many of
us have got a story about and then we used
to go to place all the time, and then the
new owners ruined it. It feels like a Seinfeld episode
that never got made, simply called the new owners. We
all know that phrase.

Speaker 1 (32:54):
It used to be great, that the new owner's ruined it.

Speaker 2 (32:56):
If you are a new owner, do you feel the
pressure to ruin something or just like, why can't you
just keep it as it was?

Speaker 6 (33:03):
You do it exactly the way?

Speaker 1 (33:05):
Yes, yes, small thing, big joy.

Speaker 2 (33:08):
After year of listening to your show and not having
a clue what was being sung at the start of
the show at six o'clock at the top of the hour,
I finally realize today what the words actually are. It's
that's why God made the radio. I always thought it
was God Baby with you, which I always thought was
a strange way for you to start the show.

Speaker 6 (33:27):
I have no idea what that what the words are either, I've.

Speaker 2 (33:30):
Never even knew the Beast Boys. That's why God made
the radio. It's a line from a song. That's why
you know we're starting the radio show.

Speaker 1 (33:37):
That's what makes it.

Speaker 2 (33:38):
I mean, for seven years, why you didn't know you
you're the guy that goes show number one thousand and five,
I didn't know who's saying work.

Speaker 1 (33:45):
Yes, both you and Darryl have had an epiphany.

Speaker 2 (33:48):
On the top of the show when you forgot to
turn my mic on.

Speaker 1 (33:50):
That's right. Yeah, that wasn't an accident. I was just
I was fright.

Speaker 2 (33:54):
We're going to get a third story about Brewster goat
small thing, Big Joy catching all eight traffic lights on
Green when today Chris and I thought I was going
to be late for work.

Speaker 1 (34:06):
Oh that's great, small thing, Big Joy, Christian.

Speaker 2 (34:09):
I love my family, but when everyone says they're not
going to be home this weekend, peace Christian.

Speaker 1 (34:16):
I want to remain anonymous. I see you, I hear you.
I get it.

Speaker 2 (34:19):
I get it, Christian, small thing, Big Joy. When you
read out my stupid comments that I send in Hey, listen, Martin,
your idea I got an hour ago about headsharing, getting
listeners to shape their heads ahead you and that is
not that. That's that's top notch. Have you heard some
of the ideas we just did the shape of zoop
That's all I've coming to it with today, So no, listen,
that's that's top end of town for this one. Yes

(34:41):
and the show. We had a call from a guy
called name Wayne, sorry, and he's got a nickname. He's
called Puffer. Because of what we're about to replay that
happened today, I want to know, how did you get
your nickname?

Speaker 13 (34:52):
Okay, whilst norkling, just driving down looking at the fish,
and there was this beautiful little pufferfish there. The next
minute it just turned and came straight at my mask.
I was scared, so I trained the surface.

Speaker 1 (35:05):
It's out of jaws.

Speaker 13 (35:06):
This puffery fish was coming like a raid of knot
straight at me. I started swimming as fast as I could,
and I turned and then again all I saw was
Pappa fish with its teeth going up and down, coming
through the bubbles straight at me. So all my friends
for the rest of the weekend called me Papa.

Speaker 2 (35:23):
Of course, this is how nicknames are born. So to
down the show, give us a call. Thirteen fifty five
twenty two, how did you get your nickname, Alex.

Speaker 1 (35:31):
You've got actually two great things for this.

Speaker 2 (35:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 9 (35:34):
So I was boxed head because my head's my head's
hardly spherical.

Speaker 2 (35:39):
Let's just face it. So was that a thing school
or yeah?

Speaker 1 (35:42):
School?

Speaker 2 (35:42):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's got corners. My head it's very square.

Speaker 1 (35:46):
I kind of balance something on a cat.

Speaker 2 (35:49):
We should do that it school. Yeah, you can tell
me as one of those sort of locker room towns.

Speaker 1 (35:56):
Yeah said here, let's get it. Dug him him, duck him.

Speaker 2 (36:01):
But also my hometown it's funny.

Speaker 9 (36:04):
Cannamble in Original New South Wales has a nickname Hall
of Fame, and it's like a tourist attraction. Everyone has
nicknames in my hometown, so half the town I don't
actually know their real names names.

Speaker 2 (36:16):
So there's Icy Slick Shack, Dala Ghost.

Speaker 9 (36:21):
Yeah, it's amazing and so it's people come there to
see it. But there's so many great nicknames. And I
think my favorite, though, is one. There was a guy
from a town in Queensland and the town is called Banana,
I believe it or not. Anyway, he was a bit
of a portly fella and his nickname was two Fruits
because he came from Banana.

Speaker 2 (36:41):
And he was shaped like a pear. Wow, that is
a genius origin story for nicknames.

Speaker 1 (36:48):
Two fruits is great.

Speaker 2 (36:50):
These are the greatest Australian rapper that never was to change.
You got two fruits. Some of them are very simple
of course, like I said, so it's a nickname hall
of fame.

Speaker 9 (37:03):
Yeah, and so they have photos, all have drawings of
people in the town.

Speaker 2 (37:07):
We need to do this now, yeah, yeah, we create
and actually listener hall of Fame somewhere in Melbourne. Yeah yeah, yeah,
do it.

Speaker 1 (37:13):
And what a great thing to do. Yeah, I bet
it is a tourist attraction. So had a look.

Speaker 2 (37:17):
Yeah, the streets of Cana will c b the field
with billboards and so the caricatures, yes.

Speaker 9 (37:22):
Yes, and they explain why their nicknames are then us.

Speaker 1 (37:25):
This is great. This is this is a hall of fame.
That's actually interesting.

Speaker 2 (37:28):
So there's like there's Dhala, I see who's why is
someone called monkey? Monkey? Monkey drove our school bus?

Speaker 1 (37:34):
Actually what yeah?

Speaker 2 (37:36):
He school he had he had very very big ears
monkey and monkeys, bet and they just called him monkey.

Speaker 1 (37:44):
That was his monkey head. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (37:45):
What about Tumbler Tumbler Edwards, Yeahwen Edwards, Tumbler Tumbler Edwards,
I'm not too sure they called him. Well, we need
to find out when he next go back and find
out about Tumbler.

Speaker 1 (37:55):
What about Bricky?

Speaker 2 (37:57):
Bricky? Oh, Bricky.

Speaker 9 (37:58):
He came from Yugoslavia back in the day, and he
was also called useful. They literally called him useful because
he came when he first came to the town, he
could do everything, and his nickname was useful.

Speaker 2 (38:11):
As far as nicknames go, that's a good one.

Speaker 1 (38:14):
Useful. All right, lines are up, and now then how
did you get your nickname?

Speaker 4 (38:20):
Christian O'Connell shown podcast.

Speaker 2 (38:23):
So five minutes ago, but just a rio laughed at
new boy Alex Cullen, who shared an intimate moment that
from childood he got the nickname box head and said,
let's put someone on your head's like a spirit level.
And then Alex I saw him snuffling around just now,
going actually it's not that town square.

Speaker 1 (38:42):
You know he's got a good strong jaw line.

Speaker 2 (38:45):
Unknew what he said on air.

Speaker 1 (38:47):
It's fine, Yeah, noted though, Alex. Yeah, he's a towel
flicker in the book.

Speaker 2 (38:51):
Yeah, all right, how did you get your nickname? Christian?
We went to Fraser Island, about fifteen years ago with
a group of friends. One of our friends, Matt, wanted
to get a stubby holder from the souvenir shop with
his name on it. There was none with Matt, so
he brought one that said Russell. He's been Russell ever since.
That's from Carli.

Speaker 1 (39:09):
I like that.

Speaker 2 (39:10):
It's fifteen years of Christian. My nickname is Bangs. I've
had since I was seven years old. As very clumsy kid,
I used to bang into things all the time, so
I became Bangs. When friends used to call up, my
mom would yell Ryan, and my friends would freak out
because they didn't actually know my name was Ryan. My mum,
he was seventy two, still caused me banks.

Speaker 1 (39:30):
Christian. I know you've moved on a small thing, big joy.

Speaker 2 (39:32):
I've just got to work and I beat the Apple
Maps estimated the rival today. Oh well done. The checker
bag is on you, my friend. We'll see you next
next Rebury at the Formula one here, Christian, I just
had a quick look at Alex online. He belongs in Minecraft.

Speaker 1 (39:47):
What is this? If you rio? It passed him? Christian.

Speaker 2 (39:54):
Small thing but joy When you open up a new
jar of coffee and that smell of instant happiness hits you. Boomgate.

Speaker 1 (40:01):
How do you think someone got the nickname boomgate?

Speaker 6 (40:04):
Drove through a boomgate?

Speaker 1 (40:06):
Almost, Christian.

Speaker 2 (40:07):
We were all camp being at a caravan park and
one of the girls a was on foot. We went
through on a load of cars, went through under the boomgate.
It came down, hit her on the head and actually
knocked her out cold. She recovered, okay, But from then
on for the last twelve years, Boomgate. Yeah, when we're out,
you know, we obviously say, hey, Boomgate. What do you
want people to always stunded, like, why is that woman

(40:28):
called Boomgate?

Speaker 1 (40:30):
I get it, Christian.

Speaker 2 (40:31):
Many years ago at footy training, a new guy at
the club didn't know all us players' names. He asked
me in a drill and I said, sure, no he thought,
I said, porno is he's stalk course me. It's gone
beyond the point where I corrected him. Christian, What twenty
two year old wouldn't want the nickname porno?

Speaker 1 (40:53):
But that was thirty years ago, Christian.

Speaker 2 (40:59):
I'm only thinking that Seinfeld episode where George tries unsuccessfully
to give himself the nickname t Bone. I saw it
again a couple of weeks ago, didn't you. I remember
about two years ago you tried to get the nickname
in your footy team of Maverick and it never took it.

Speaker 6 (41:16):
When I first moved to Melbourne, I thought, chance for
a new nickname when you get to do this, So
I introduced myself to the core Field Football Club as Viper.
Very little take up.

Speaker 2 (41:30):
So you don't in life, sometimes you don't give yourself
a nickname, especially an aspirational one. You think Alex wants
to be box Head or our friend, their puffer or
poor old boom Gate Wiper. Maybe let's go to who
we got here? Well, all I know is their nicknames.

Speaker 1 (41:48):
Buddha.

Speaker 14 (41:50):
Okay, hello, Yeah. So when I was a kid, my
parents had a photo of me and my bellies like
three times bigger than my head, so they called me
over since it was when I was a kid not
have friends over. But even when I was playing basketball,
like dabbled refs a team and when he called me
off for he called me and people look around come running.

Speaker 2 (42:15):
Off school kids giving you but your own mom and
dads meant to be your biggest Chit leads you, old Buddha.
