It’s Knock Off Friday, and listeners pile in to share when they’re clocking off, scoring big with XXXX prizes and Vienetta 6‑packs as the final slabs vanish fast.
Pats is outed as the Team Traitor after a sneaky solo McDonald’s run, prompting Christian to shout the rest of the team Macca's.
We also meet a wildlife sanctuary caring for retired circus animals - including two psychic tigers now predicting the World Cup for us, before wrapping with Disney Bands for At Work Time Wasters.

Speaker 5 (02:33):
What's loved The Burrows on Netflix?
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Great fun. We're episode five at the.
Speaker 5 (02:40):
Moment, are you It's just getting good?
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Oh my god. Stranger Things have grown ups they call it.
It's by the Duffer brothers who made Stranger Things. Yes,
kind of strange, kooky retirement. It's beautifully, very funny.
Speaker 6 (02:51):
Yeah, it's been shot in New Mexico and it's all
the houses of these beautiful mid century modern style places,
which I love.
Speaker 5 (02:59):
It's brilliant.
Speaker 6 (02:59):
And they've got this great cast, alien, great cast people.
Speaker 5 (03:03):
Wullman who door. Gina Davis is in me.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
You've not seen her since Danman Luis and.
Speaker 6 (03:09):
She looks great. This is fantastic. If you loved Stranger Things,
you will absolutely.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Given us mid Lazies our own Stranger.
Speaker 5 (03:18):
Things, you know, for older people.
Speaker 6 (03:20):
And they have signed up for a second series, so
there's more coming.
Speaker 5 (03:23):
Yes, you wait till the last episode.
Speaker 4 (03:25):
It's great.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Yeah, love's so creepy. It's really well done.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
Is it scarier or less scary.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Than less scarier because obviously I think they worry about
the blood pressure. Folks watching it. Oh, it's just lost
his phone charger. That was all jump scape.
Speaker 6 (03:41):
And you'll never look at your oven the same way again.
But it's great the burrows what it means.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Yes, in that scene, no spoilers, haven't never cooked anything
in that oven?
Speaker 5 (03:51):
Just open it isn't it?
Speaker 1 (03:53):
No bloody great hold?
Speaker 6 (03:54):
But I was thinking the same thing. I think, did
they not suspect that something was going on weird?
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Because there's never used the oven? There's just a great,
big holding, and that the leads to a secret. I
won't give anything else, No, it don't. What else you enjoying? Well,
that's it, okay.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Double thumbs up for me. It's back for a second season.
The four Seasons knows Steve Carrell For this one, however,
I think better season. We watched all of it last weekend.
I'm not sure stick with it. We were about to
stop watching it on midway through the first one. But
it gets better, and I've got to say we watched
(04:32):
it all in one sitting, and it's a brilliant, brilliant cast.
Tina Fey are watching anything, but the whole cast are
very very good. It really nalls what it's like to
be an adult in a relationship. The jokes are brilliant.
It's real life. It's very very honest. Not just in
a relationship, the relationship you struggle sometimes with yourself as well.
It's brilliant. I cannot recommend it enough. They used to
(04:54):
make movies like this in the nineties, before all the
mega franchises that were about what it is to be us,
to be a grown up. It's so good. The jokes
are really really cover times, really rewinding it. There are
so many spot on observation and jokes about just the mundaneity,
the pettiness of being in a relationship.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
Didn't it almost break up your marriage last year?
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Luckily that's all been resolved because Stevie boy is no
longer in it obviously right last week.
Speaker 6 (05:21):
But now the wife is really annoying me, the ex
wife with the girlfriend.
Speaker 5 (05:24):
I haven't can't come to terms with it.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
I say this her arc In the last couple of episodes,
it becomes her show. Oh really yeah, yeah, yeah, it's good,
Yeah yeah, stick with it. Don't give up on it.
Four seasons, Ria, what's it for you?
Speaker 7 (05:39):
Such a funny news show on ABC. Ursula Carson is
finally getting her flowers. She's got her own show.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Well, she's a killer stand up She is.
Speaker 7 (05:47):
So funny and we haven't had it's called Ursula. It's
on ABC Wednesday's nine thirty and I view she. We
haven't had a skitch show in Australia since. Do you
remember Patty Back in the day, around the two thousands,
there was skit House, ski Show, Fast for fast Forward for.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Do you think about how many stars got discovered through Yes.
Speaker 7 (06:07):
So many like Pete Hally, I Carry Big More, Tom Gleeson,
all of them got their start.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
It's not such a big thing around the world sketch
shows anymore. It's really hard.
Speaker 7 (06:15):
Yeah, it almost and it hasn't existed in Australia for
so long. And this is so so good. They do
not miss you might have seen. There's quite a few
sketches that have already gone viral on Instagram and TikTok.
Speaker 4 (06:26):
It is hilarious.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Well, Brittain, I watched that. I Love Her so I
saw at the Comedy Festival. I think it was last
year the year before, I thought she was outstanding.
Speaker 4 (06:33):
She's amazing.
Speaker 7 (06:34):
She is so so funny and yeah, one of the
funniest shows on Ozzie TV.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Brilliant.
Speaker 7 (06:38):
All right, so you find that on I view YEP,
ABC and Wednesday's nine.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
Thirty Christian Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Was there a party here or something last night this
radio station. I just wanted to make a cup of tea.
It's like two open wine bottles, And first I thought Pats,
but then I thought, hang on, there's still half of
this rose left in here. Someone getting smashed last night
here at the radio station.
Speaker 7 (07:03):
I think they did some sort of trivia night or
something which I didn't know. You were allowed to use
company space just to get loaded and can.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
We have like family does here at the radio station
at the weekend, And actually I've got a youngest daughter's
twenty in November. I could just use the space here.
They got that hidden supply cupboard. Can anyone get in there?
By the way? I see that the stuff. The underlings here,
you know, the ones that work run reception. They're very tightly.
Sometimes they open up that hidden door and there's an
(07:31):
entire stock crum. Yeah, it's like a mini Bunnings. Yes,
but there's like food and a lot of booze in there.
Then the door shuts very quickly. Yeah it is. I
just see it opening goes.
Speaker 4 (07:42):
It's like Narnia, only they have the key.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
Yes, yeah, we need to find out we can get
hold of that key. All right. Welcome to Knockoff Friday.
The best question anyone can ask you on a Friday
is what time are you knocking off today? We did
this every Friday on the show and knock Off Friday.

Speaker 6 (09:01):
I don't think so, it's not that kind of weekend.
Our daughter's starting exams next week, so she's in the books.
Speaker 5 (09:09):
She'll be studying. We won't probably.
Speaker 1 (09:10):
See again smashed in the corner. I just know if
you need any help.
Speaker 6 (09:19):
I hope she doesn't need any maths help because I
am useless at the best of times.
Speaker 5 (09:23):
So no, she she'll take the books.

Europe for three weeks, and.
Speaker 4 (09:41):
I'm going to have the house to myself when when happy.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Watching what you want, eating what you want.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
You know, I had a moment yesterday.
Speaker 7 (09:51):
I was stacking the dishwasher and he came over and
restacked the dishwasher the specific way.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Held last time, he's going to do that in three weeks,
last time.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
I have to endure this.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
BS, you better enjoy this, because what's the discrepancy? Who's
the main stacker? Hey, well, we.
Speaker 4 (10:06):
Stacked the same.
Speaker 7 (10:06):
He's just very picky about how he wants the dishwasher stack.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
I just sort of chuck things in there.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
I'm now with will he is he? Now? I put
all the knives go together, all the tea spoons go together,
All the spoons go together. That way, when it's dried,
you just grab and dump easier.
Speaker 7 (10:23):
I agree with that for the cutlery, but for every
single leg the rest of it.
Speaker 4 (10:27):
He has.
Speaker 7 (10:27):
He has a grid for me of where everything should go.
To your kid, I'm supposed to stack the dishwasher too.
He's liking it's crazy. It's completely crazy.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Three weeks Free, Free Wonderful.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
Christian O'Connell shot on podcast.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Right now, Not call Friday Christian I love here and
Rio's dishwasher story. My husband will open a dishwasher and say, ah,
the Swedish architect has been at it again with a dishwasher. Alwa,
he's making fun of my precision stacking. Perhaps he had
a great idea of doing some kind of dishwasher challenge,
who can stack and win? I want to hear from
(11:06):
people who have a system. When see your partner's obviously
got a great.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
I'll take a photo of it when I get high.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
So what do you do? The largest plates at the
back going down in sort of I'm going to send
you order. I'm going to get in trouble for not
sharing the system, for not knowing it well enough.
Speaker 7 (11:21):
Down the bottom we've got bowls and different shaped folds,
so we've got a wider, flatter bowl and there getting through.
Speaker 4 (11:30):
Your plates dire plates a right at the back.
Speaker 7 (11:32):
But then we've got bowls at the front section and
then the middle.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Why can't bowl got the back?
Speaker 4 (11:37):
Oh my god, you would get kicked out of the house.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
Why it's the same machine in the same space, And hey,
don't ask me, I'm not the systems.
Speaker 7 (11:47):
And then the middle the middle is of a whole
around fish mash. Yeah, but he's got a system. I
just checked the middles. We chuck everything wherever, but he
has a very specific glasses. Go here, you know, wooden
spoon here, blah blah blah blah.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
Do you guys see the same as me when it
comes to the larger kind of like the fish slices
and the bigger kind of spans. Just chucked them anywhere, Yes,
Sometimes on top of plates, yes, like a roof for all.

Speaker 1 (15:08):
Chris O'Connell's show.
Speaker 4 (15:11):
Went to our local.
Speaker 12 (15:13):
We've been going to the years at Lisa's s eighteenth.
There's where we had our first piece, Better seen, Better
days in mea liqua pace.
Speaker 4 (15:29):
We need to help this joint bump me in all
our mates.
Speaker 12 (15:34):
It's ay, save Christ, please save Pup's anyboy gonna save Christ?
Speaker 1 (15:44):
Please save up? Good morning. It's to Christian O'Connell's show
on Goal Time now to give one very deserving local
pub another five thousand dollars. This week it's been a
big week on save our part. But next week we
announced which pub is getting the ultimate reno. But this week,
one pub that you told us about every single day
has been getting five thousand dollars, all thanks to four extra.
(16:05):
Pub's calling. Somewhere between the first sip and the love
us laugh. It's always a four X now. When we
started this mission a couple of weeks ago, this guy
Jason was one of the first people to call up
and tell us about this amazing pub.
Speaker 9 (16:18):
We've got to get to Charles Hartham and brownstraight in Geelong,
Chris and rach in there, they're just cracking people. They
get behind the local community, different one hundred percent genuine
pub to no frills venue. And there's not even a
lock on our toilet.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
So let's speak to Chris from the Sir Charles Hotham. Chris,
good morning, Christian, how are you. I'm very good. Listen.
I come with good news. You can get a new
lock for the toilet door. You've got five thousand dollars.
Oh my god, that's amazing.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
Thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
Mate, with us in our pleasure to tell us about
the pub. So we're a family owned business.
Speaker 13 (16:56):
We've been proprietors of the pub since nineteen ninety one. Yeah,
three generations running through the pub. And yeah, we're just
an old school venue, no frills. As Jason said, we
did fix the toilet door lock goodness. But yeah, we're
just a community venue and like our locals and yeah,
just have a good time and enjoy each other's company.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
I love this and Chris, So since nineteen ninety one,
a lot of people would have probably had parties there.
You'd have seen some of the customer's kids grow up
and become locals and never have kids as well. That's
a lot of change in the area there, and you
were constant in that.
Speaker 13 (17:32):
It certainly is, and I'm hopefully going to write a
best seller later on in life because there's plenty of
stories to.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Tell, Okay, especially your part of Victoria as well. You
get some interesting characters out there. Chris, Oh, yeah, we
certainly do.
Speaker 13 (17:44):
And we're close to the train station so that's always interesting.
But yeah, no, there's plenty of stories over the years.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
Do you know what, you should write a book? You're right,
someone who's been the local pub in an area since
nineteen ninety one you would have seen an overheard and
also because you know, it's like you have a couple
of beers. Sometimes it's not truth serum. People spell so
much stuff about their lives, don't they.
Speaker 13 (18:05):
Oh, certainly, I know everyone's everyone his sporting abilities, what
they got in their VCE, I know what medication their
mum's taking.
Speaker 11 (18:15):
It all.
Speaker 13 (18:17):
It's all part of being a publican.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Yeah, you're part publican, part GP exactly. Yeah, psychiatrist.
Speaker 13 (18:25):
Yeah, the old cold beer and sympathetic gear is definitely
here at the Hockam.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
Yeah, but it's needed in the world right now, and
then tell us, Chris, what are you going to do
with the money? What does finiz thousand dotters do for you? Guys?
Speaker 13 (18:37):
Now, as all good marriages go, I'm never in charge
of the finances.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
That's my wife Rachel.
Speaker 13 (18:43):
But probably since we opened in nineteen ninety one, we've
got the same dining room chairs, so they definitely need
a replacement.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
But what happens at the pub. If it's not breake,
you don't fix it.
Speaker 13 (18:56):
So it'll be good to be able to get some
chairs that people don't have to bring their own cushions
in to sit down.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
I love that all right, So give you a plug.
It's Friday, so people might be in the area, might
want to pop in over the weekend. Give yourself a plug, mate, certainly.
So it's the Charles Oftham Motel.
Speaker 13 (19:14):
We're on the corner of Browham and Cavender Street, and
just to share it out to all all people around
Victoria and Australia. The local pubs, it's roadblock after roadblock
in front of them at the moment. So if you
don't use your local you'll lose it. So get into
all your local venues, no matter who you are. There's
plenty of publicans out there doing it tough and just
(19:34):

Speaker 1 (26:57):
Now you might be wondering, Christians winter, why giving away

The common impacts of six Ria has had printed off

You'd have to go through it from the start thirty six.
No Rio has the entire six times table printed off

a three printing.
Speaker 4 (28:27):

day you probably notice on your feeds you're seeing more
more of the amazing adverts to different brands have made
are Nike and Adidas and all the different songs the
countries who are going to be going. It's going to
be incredible. And one thing I've noticed, as every World

(28:58):
animal mammal sometimes in an aquarium that will try and
predict the games. We need in on that action. Oh yeah,
I do not want to be left behind, mate, look stupid.

some for the bed. Thirteen fifty five twenty two. Now.
Also I appeal to any of the zoos listening to

maybe at the Werribee Open Rain Zoo there. And if
you're in the elephant house, the giraffe house, why elephants

In giraffes love to enable on leaves and trees. In
the one of their favorite trees, you have some delicious
leaves that say soccer. Use they have some leaves that
say turkey. Whichever the draft starts to nibble on first,
that's your winner, okay wow? Or it might be an
ape huh. You know in a in a zoo as well,

Speaker 4 (31:52):
Well, you gotta stay focused on the DNA.
Speaker 1 (31:54):
You're right, You're right, You're right, come on, come on. Okay,
So there's some discrepancy here between what you're saying and
what the producers are saying. But just in Kaitlin, how
many do we have to give away on your sheet
you've given me? You're saying two hundred and eighty seven
single vionettas? Is that correct? Rio just said five minutes ago,
three hundred and something?
Speaker 4 (32:14):
Yeah, I'm not three.
Speaker 1 (32:16):
No, where are you getting that from a sheet? Win
Is We both got the same sheet, but two widely
different numbers. He says, two hundred and eighty seven. Well,
which equates to forty seven slams of six.
Speaker 5 (32:31):
Okay, I know what's happened. We have a folder system
out here, right, and that folder system it's a very
good but when Rio touches it.
Speaker 1 (32:41):
Oh no, no old specky four eyes magoo, oh and
I happening. I'm here with these eyes of mine. It's
by this sub folder.
Speaker 5 (32:52):
Sometimes he just grabs and goes.
Speaker 1 (32:54):
But what's happened is that is an old page that.
Speaker 5 (32:57):
Rio has got it. Sorry about that?
Speaker 6 (32:59):
The updated number seven, I've actually got a more updated number.
Speaker 1 (33:04):
Hang on, this was but I think we have I
don't have access to the folders obviously. Why who gave
me this? Then? Sorry?
Speaker 5 (33:12):
It is very busy here. It is chaotic.
Speaker 13 (33:14):
We have lines jammed full of people who've got text
lines jammed.
Speaker 5 (33:18):
Sometimes we do give some people off a vanetta just
as a nice you know, because they're desperate.
Speaker 1 (33:24):
For the beautiful story. Can we get on with this?
Speaker 5 (33:26):
So we've got two hundred and sixty three is left?
Speaker 1 (33:28):
Two six three? How many slabs is that? That is
two six three divided by six? I didn't get up
that far my Times table revision yesterday. It won't be
divisible by six three, is it? Yeah? Oh?
Speaker 4 (33:41):
Well no, not perfectly forty three point eight. But we're
not going to give someone point eight of a viennetta.
Speaker 1 (33:45):

I want a different kind of animal that can predict
ahead of all the soccer whose games, which team is
going to win? Just give us early confidence, Christian, can
we offer our We've got a sheep, Popcorn, who's actually
very smart, actually thinks they could predict the World Cup winner,
not just socceruse games. He is so smart. We've taught
him how to spin on commands, spin and wins when
(37:44):
Popcors gets popping the winner.
Speaker 4 (37:47):
Sheep's famously though, dim, very dim. Yeah, but smart.
Speaker 1 (37:51):
But Popcorn Popcorn is the genie. Might be the smartest
sheep in the world. Is that that movie that came
out a couple of weeks ago, A huge Chapman?

Oh yes?
Speaker 1 (37:57):
Is it? The smartest sheep in the world? Names in it, huge,

It rounds up the sheep detective.
Speaker 1 (38:17):
Yeah, anyway, Christian, I have EMUs. You're not having them.
They are the sixth thummus bird in the world. Honestly,
they're too stupid to predict anything. You know, you can't

Speaker 3 (38:31):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1 (38:34):
Christian, thanks to Pat's talking about getting a macas this morning.

you hear someone have it, I know, and your stomach goes,
bring me food. Yes. New recruit to the show in turn, Pete,
Good morning, Good morning morning everybody. Now, Pete, you're going

minutes dropping off Vienetta to a couple locations. But you reckon.
You've got a contender for a World Cup.
Speaker 8 (39:04):
Pet I think we have a real winner here, a
very good friend. Her name is Donna. She runs a
wild life retreat for retired circus animals. Right, so the
ones that had to spend their life.
Speaker 1 (39:12):
O slow, this amazing. It's a retreat for retired circus animals.

Oh, it is the most beautiful place on the outskirts
of Sydney.
Speaker 1 (39:21):
Right.
Speaker 14 (39:21):
Her name as said his Donna, and she has been
all life, basically just giving them the life that they
deserve at the end. But she has heard this, and
she says she has the perfect tiger ready to go
for this. She said, she's even gone two tigers if
(39:42):
we want if something, if something goes wrong, yes, a
tiger was earlier.
Speaker 1 (39:46):
I was going to meet me with the mere spider, right,
so that even bet out by the way, don't you
wish I wish I could go and chat to those
animals and interview them, the stories they would have about
their years in the circus, their chat to each other. Well,
I was once performed in Fremantle over and w a
(40:07):
our awful crowds. There were awful groulse.
Speaker 14 (40:09):
It's so good zombie wildlife retreat. Now, her suggests Donna,
who I adore. But she's like, okay, great, So do
you want to put two annequins in there? And whoever
gets eaten first wins.
Speaker 1 (40:25):
In the middle of the school on wives. It is funny,
I didn't know you were going there. You're gonna say
two men in there, and I've got to go peep.

Christian Connall Show podcast.

Speaker 4 (42:19):
I'm Patty.
Speaker 7 (42:23):
Tigers wondering if I could just pop into the new
studio help her submit some of her expenses.
Speaker 1 (42:28):
So she asked you after the show yesterday to do
that after the day's show, not during the show.
Speaker 5 (42:32):
Well I did ask you monday. You still have them
come in and say so, she messages.
Speaker 7 (42:36):
Just now you interest, you've got time during the song,
can you pop in and just help me with my expense?
Speaker 1 (42:42):
What someone's knocked off?
Speaker 4 (42:45):
Maybe if you've got me a sausage and McMuffin an hour.
Speaker 1 (42:48):
Yeah, yeah, we see how it is all right now,
intern Pete, where are we with our World Cup predicting tigers.
Speaker 8 (42:57):
Oh, we are in a really great place at the moment.
Speaker 14 (42:59):
Now I've actually got the wonderful lady on the phone
who looks after these beautiful retired circle circus animals. That's right,
we have got either one or two tigers to on
what we want to do with them for next Friday
show live.
Speaker 8 (43:12):
On the Christian o'connells Show. Would you please welcome Donna.
Speaker 1 (43:16):
Donna, welcome to the show.
Speaker 11 (43:18):
Hi Christian, please to meet you and you listen to it.
I love your show.
Speaker 1 (43:22):
By the way, We thank you very much for coming
over and joining us, and Donna, thank you for the
great work you do for these lovely animals as well.
Speaker 11 (43:29):
Oh thanks Christian. Yeah, we started like over ten years
ago because there was no sanctuary in Australia that could
offer homes to retired circus animals or animals from the
film industry or even private ownership. So we sort of
started to and be with a handful of big cats
needing homes and we've grown from there. Now we've got
(43:50):
a diversity of species here and it's absolutely beautiful sanctuary
to visit.
Speaker 1 (43:57):
I'd love to come out and say that, shall bring
the kids. My girls would love that. And so how
big is it now? How many acres you've got? How
many animals are they?
Speaker 11 (44:03):
We're situated on fifty acres. It's the old Bullen's Animal
World property. They still own it and they've allowed us
to build this sanctuary on their property. And we've got
probably over one hundred animals, not all of them are
on exhibit. But we do only open to the public
twice a week because I built it for the animals
(44:26):
for their retirement and not so much for people. But
we do open it because we do need to feed them,
we need some income, and we only open for small
groups and it's very exclusive and everyone just loves it.
Speaker 1 (44:41):
It's seem that's going a day trip. I want to
come and see them. So if you need to, yes,
and you're feeding the me accounts at the moment.
Speaker 11 (44:48):
I just finished feeding them there. I just threw a
couple of handfuls of live mealworms around, so we like
someone that.
Speaker 1 (44:55):
Was still we.
Speaker 2 (44:57):
Yes something.
Speaker 1 (45:00):
Now, tell us about the tigers.
Speaker 11 (45:02):
Well, I've actually Sady's home to six tigers. But I've
got two young girls that love to play and love
to do things, So I'm thinking you wanted to put
them up for a challenge, didn't you.
Speaker 1 (45:16):
Yeah, so obviously it's the World Cup stants next week,
and I was looking to see if we get like
a predicting animal to predict the outcome of the socceros games.
And you know, I reckon the tigers could do that
for us with the third eye of the tiger.
Speaker 11 (45:31):
Of course. Now they're pretty clever like that. Tigers. Maybe
not as clever as octopuses, but they don't have a
go on.
Speaker 1 (45:38):
We're going to find out.
Speaker 11 (45:40):
So no, we're happy to join in on the fun
with this one. And we're all big soccer fans, and
they actually love playing with balls. They chase balls around,
so they could probably join the soffers.
Speaker 1 (45:55):
To face some back for that Gaboo chuck. A couple
of tigers there, that's the coach's Tony's secret plan.
Speaker 11 (46:06):
I'm sure they could make the players run.
Speaker 1 (46:08):
Little bit training. This is great, Donna.
Speaker 11 (46:15):
We're excited to come on the show and go at this.
And it's fun, you know, because it's very important when
you have animals in captive environments that you give them
a lot of enrichment. This sort of thing is fun
for them to do.
Speaker 1 (46:28):
So well, beat Pete, I know, said to me that
you'd love to come and help out work and sort
of muck out down there next Friday. So yeah, you're
going to next sort of a hand. They're doing the
feed and slapping out next Friday. Good on your peete
for offering that.
Speaker 8 (46:41):
Oh, absolutely done. I can't wait to catch up.
Speaker 14 (46:43):
I mean, I mean logistically, what are we throwing in
their balls and people mannikins.
Speaker 11 (46:49):
Let me know what you want to do. Come up
with something quite different.
Speaker 1 (46:55):

one oh four three perhapsy.
Speaker 5 (02:33):
What's loved The Burrows on Netflix?
Speaker 1 (02:37):
Great fun. We're episode five at the.
Speaker 5 (02:40):
Moment, are you It's just getting good?
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Oh my god. Stranger Things have grown ups they call it.
It's by the Duffer brothers who made Stranger Things. Yes,
kind of strange, kooky retirement. It's beautifully, very funny.
Speaker 6 (02:51):
Yeah, it's been shot in New Mexico and it's all
the houses of these beautiful mid century modern style places,
which I love.
Speaker 5 (02:59):
It's brilliant.
Speaker 6 (02:59):
And they've got this great cast, alien, great cast people.
Speaker 5 (03:03):
Wullman who door. Gina Davis is in me.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
You've not seen her since Danman Luis and.
Speaker 6 (03:09):
She looks great. This is fantastic. If you loved Stranger Things,
you will absolutely.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Given us mid Lazies our own Stranger.
Speaker 5 (03:18):
Things, you know, for older people.
Speaker 6 (03:20):
And they have signed up for a second series, so
there's more coming.
Speaker 5 (03:23):
Yes, you wait till the last episode.
Speaker 4 (03:25):
It's great.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Yeah, love's so creepy. It's really well done.
Speaker 4 (03:29):
Is it scarier or less scary.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Than less scarier because obviously I think they worry about
the blood pressure. Folks watching it. Oh, it's just lost
his phone charger. That was all jump scape.
Speaker 6 (03:41):
And you'll never look at your oven the same way again.
But it's great the burrows what it means.
Speaker 1 (03:46):
Yes, in that scene, no spoilers, haven't never cooked anything
in that oven?
Speaker 5 (03:51):
Just open it isn't it?
Speaker 1 (03:53):
No bloody great hold?
Speaker 6 (03:54):
But I was thinking the same thing. I think, did
they not suspect that something was going on weird?
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Because there's never used the oven? There's just a great,
big holding, and that the leads to a secret. I
won't give anything else, No, it don't. What else you enjoying? Well,
that's it, okay.
Speaker 3 (04:09):
The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
Double thumbs up for me. It's back for a second season.
The four Seasons knows Steve Carrell For this one, however,
I think better season. We watched all of it last weekend.
I'm not sure stick with it. We were about to
stop watching it on midway through the first one. But
it gets better, and I've got to say we watched
(04:32):
it all in one sitting, and it's a brilliant, brilliant cast.
Tina Fey are watching anything, but the whole cast are
very very good. It really nalls what it's like to
be an adult in a relationship. The jokes are brilliant.
It's real life. It's very very honest. Not just in
a relationship, the relationship you struggle sometimes with yourself as well.
It's brilliant. I cannot recommend it enough. They used to
(04:54):
make movies like this in the nineties, before all the
mega franchises that were about what it is to be us,
to be a grown up. It's so good. The jokes
are really really cover times, really rewinding it. There are
so many spot on observation and jokes about just the mundaneity,
the pettiness of being in a relationship.
Speaker 4 (05:14):
Didn't it almost break up your marriage last year?
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Luckily that's all been resolved because Stevie boy is no
longer in it obviously right last week.
Speaker 6 (05:21):
But now the wife is really annoying me, the ex
wife with the girlfriend.
Speaker 5 (05:24):
I haven't can't come to terms with it.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
I say this her arc In the last couple of episodes,
it becomes her show. Oh really yeah, yeah, yeah, it's good,
Yeah yeah, stick with it. Don't give up on it.
Four seasons, Ria, what's it for you?
Speaker 7 (05:39):
Such a funny news show on ABC. Ursula Carson is
finally getting her flowers. She's got her own show.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Well, she's a killer stand up She is.
Speaker 7 (05:47):
So funny and we haven't had it's called Ursula. It's
on ABC Wednesday's nine thirty and I view she. We
haven't had a skitch show in Australia since. Do you
remember Patty Back in the day, around the two thousands,
there was skit House, ski Show, Fast for fast Forward for.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Do you think about how many stars got discovered through Yes.
Speaker 7 (06:07):
So many like Pete Hally, I Carry Big More, Tom Gleeson,
all of them got their start.
Speaker 1 (06:12):
It's not such a big thing around the world sketch
shows anymore. It's really hard.
Speaker 7 (06:15):
Yeah, it almost and it hasn't existed in Australia for
so long. And this is so so good. They do
not miss you might have seen. There's quite a few
sketches that have already gone viral on Instagram and TikTok.
Speaker 4 (06:26):
It is hilarious.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Well, Brittain, I watched that. I Love Her so I
saw at the Comedy Festival. I think it was last
year the year before, I thought she was outstanding.
Speaker 4 (06:33):
She's amazing.
Speaker 7 (06:34):
She is so so funny and yeah, one of the
funniest shows on Ozzie TV.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Brilliant.
Speaker 7 (06:38):
All right, so you find that on I view YEP,
ABC and Wednesday's nine.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
Thirty Christian Connell Show podcast.

Was there a party here or something last night this

but then I thought, hang on, there's still half of
this rose left in here. Someone getting smashed last night
here at the radio station.
Speaker 7 (07:03):

something which I didn't know. You were allowed to use
company space just to get loaded and can.
Speaker 1 (07:10):
We have like family does here at the radio station
at the weekend, And actually I've got a youngest daughter's
twenty in November. I could just use the space here.
They got that hidden supply cupboard. Can anyone get in there?
By the way? I see that the stuff. The underlings here,
you know, the ones that work run reception. They're very tightly.
Sometimes they open up that hidden door and there's an
(07:31):
entire stock crum. Yeah, it's like a mini Bunnings. Yes,
but there's like food and a lot of booze in there.
Then the door shuts very quickly. Yeah it is. I
just see it opening goes.
Speaker 4 (07:42):
It's like Narnia, only they have the key.
Speaker 1 (07:44):
Yes, yeah, we need to find out we can get
hold of that key. All right. Welcome to Knockoff Friday.

Europe for three weeks, and.
Speaker 4 (09:41):
I'm going to have the house to myself when when happy.
Speaker 1 (09:47):
Watching what you want, eating what you want.
Speaker 4 (09:50):
You know, I had a moment yesterday.
Speaker 7 (09:51):
I was stacking the dishwasher and he came over and
restacked the dishwasher the specific way.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Held last time, he's going to do that in three weeks,
last time.
Speaker 4 (09:58):
I have to endure this.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
BS, you better enjoy this, because what's the discrepancy? Who's
the main stacker? Hey, well, we.
Speaker 4 (10:06):
Stacked the same.
Speaker 7 (10:06):
He's just very picky about how he wants the dishwasher stack.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
I just sort of chuck things in there.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
I'm now with will he is he? Now? I put
all the knives go together, all the tea spoons go together,
All the spoons go together. That way, when it's dried,
you just grab and dump easier.
Speaker 7 (10:23):
I agree with that for the cutlery, but for every
single leg the rest of it.
Speaker 4 (10:27):
He has.
Speaker 7 (10:27):
He has a grid for me of where everything should go.
To your kid, I'm supposed to stack the dishwasher too.
He's liking it's crazy. It's completely crazy.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Three weeks Free, Free Wonderful.
Speaker 3 (10:41):
Christian O'Connell shot on podcast.
Speaker 1 (10:45):
Right now, Not call Friday Christian I love here and
Rio's dishwasher story. My husband will open a dishwasher and say, ah,
the Swedish architect has been at it again with a dishwasher. Alwa,
he's making fun of my precision stacking. Perhaps he had
a great idea of doing some kind of dishwasher challenge,
who can stack and win? I want to hear from
(11:06):
people who have a system. When see your partner's obviously
got a great.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
I'll take a photo of it when I get high.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
So what do you do? The largest plates at the
back going down in sort of I'm going to send
you order. I'm going to get in trouble for not
sharing the system, for not knowing it well enough.
Speaker 7 (11:21):
Down the bottom we've got bowls and different shaped folds,
so we've got a wider, flatter bowl and there getting through.
Speaker 4 (11:30):
Your plates dire plates a right at the back.
Speaker 7 (11:32):
But then we've got bowls at the front section and
then the middle.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
Why can't bowl got the back?
Speaker 4 (11:37):
Oh my god, you would get kicked out of the house.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
Why it's the same machine in the same space, And hey,
don't ask me, I'm not the systems.
Speaker 7 (11:47):
And then the middle the middle is of a whole

Awesome thank you The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Chris O'Connell's show.
Speaker 4 (15:11):
Went to our local.
Speaker 12 (15:13):
We've been going to the years at Lisa's s eighteenth.
There's where we had our first piece, Better seen, Better
days in mea liqua pace.
Speaker 4 (15:29):
We need to help this joint bump me in all
our mates.
Speaker 12 (15:34):
It's ay, save Christ, please save Pup's anyboy gonna save Christ?
Speaker 1 (15:44):
Please save up? Good morning. It's to Christian O'Connell's show
on Goal Time now to give one very deserving local
pub another five thousand dollars. This week it's been a
big week on save our part. But next week we
announced which pub is getting the ultimate reno. But this week,
one pub that you told us about every single day
has been getting five thousand dollars, all thanks to four extra.
(16:05):
Pub's calling. Somewhere between the first sip and the love
us laugh. It's always a four X now. When we
started this mission a couple of weeks ago, this guy
Jason was one of the first people to call up
and tell us about this amazing pub.
Speaker 9 (16:18):
We've got to get to Charles Hartham and brownstraight in Geelong,
Chris and rach in there, they're just cracking people. They
get behind the local community, different one hundred percent genuine
pub to no frills venue. And there's not even a
lock on our toilet.
Speaker 1 (16:33):
So let's speak to Chris from the Sir Charles Hotham. Chris,
good morning, Christian, how are you. I'm very good. Listen.
I come with good news. You can get a new
lock for the toilet door. You've got five thousand dollars.
Oh my god, that's amazing.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
Thank you so much.
Speaker 1 (16:49):
Mate, with us in our pleasure to tell us about
the pub. So we're a family owned business.
Speaker 13 (16:56):
We've been proprietors of the pub since nineteen ninety one. Yeah,
three generations running through the pub. And yeah, we're just
an old school venue, no frills. As Jason said, we
did fix the toilet door lock goodness. But yeah, we're
just a community venue and like our locals and yeah,
just have a good time and enjoy each other's company.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
I love this and Chris, So since nineteen ninety one,
a lot of people would have probably had parties there.
You'd have seen some of the customer's kids grow up
and become locals and never have kids as well. That's
a lot of change in the area there, and you
were constant in that.
Speaker 13 (17:32):
It certainly is, and I'm hopefully going to write a
best seller later on in life because there's plenty of
stories to.
Speaker 1 (17:37):
Tell, Okay, especially your part of Victoria as well. You
get some interesting characters out there. Chris, Oh, yeah, we
certainly do.
Speaker 13 (17:44):
And we're close to the train station so that's always interesting.
But yeah, no, there's plenty of stories over the years.
Speaker 1 (17:50):
Do you know what, you should write a book? You're right,
someone who's been the local pub in an area since
nineteen ninety one you would have seen an overheard and
also because you know, it's like you have a couple
of beers. Sometimes it's not truth serum. People spell so
much stuff about their lives, don't they.
Speaker 13 (18:05):
Oh, certainly, I know everyone's everyone his sporting abilities, what
they got in their VCE, I know what medication their
mum's taking.
Speaker 11 (18:15):
It all.
Speaker 13 (18:17):
It's all part of being a publican.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Yeah, you're part publican, part GP exactly. Yeah, psychiatrist.
Speaker 13 (18:25):
Yeah, the old cold beer and sympathetic gear is definitely
here at the Hockam.
Speaker 1 (18:30):
Yeah, but it's needed in the world right now, and
then tell us, Chris, what are you going to do
with the money? What does finiz thousand dotters do for you? Guys?
Speaker 13 (18:37):
Now, as all good marriages go, I'm never in charge
of the finances.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
That's my wife Rachel.
Speaker 13 (18:43):
But probably since we opened in nineteen ninety one, we've
got the same dining room chairs, so they definitely need
a replacement.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
But what happens at the pub. If it's not breake,
you don't fix it.
Speaker 13 (18:56):
So it'll be good to be able to get some
chairs that people don't have to bring their own cushions
in to sit down.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
I love that all right, So give you a plug.
It's Friday, so people might be in the area, might
want to pop in over the weekend. Give yourself a plug, mate, certainly.
So it's the Charles Oftham Motel.
Speaker 13 (19:14):
We're on the corner of Browham and Cavender Street, and
just to share it out to all all people around
Victoria and Australia. The local pubs, it's roadblock after roadblock
in front of them at the moment. So if you
don't use your local you'll lose it. So get into
all your local venues, no matter who you are. There's
plenty of publicans out there doing it tough and just
(19:34):
support your local.
Speaker 1 (19:35):
Well said Chris. Yeah, the last twenty years you'll know
this more than me to sixty percent of our local
pubs have gone and they won't come back. So the
ones that are there, like yours there's Charles Hotham, are
really really important. You know. We need these spaces where
we can get together and chat to each other and
have a few drinks, celebrate staff and commiserate when people
are tough weeks as well. So Chris, congratulations, you're exactly
(19:56):
why we're doing this. And thanks for the generations of
support you've given the coach as well. No worries at all, and.
Speaker 13 (20:02):
Thank you to four excellent Happy birthday for you for
your eight years.
Speaker 1 (20:06):
Thank you very much. Okay, thanks Chris, well done. No,
I appreciated, guys. Thank you.

Speaker 4 (31:52):
Well, you gotta stay focused on the DNA.
Speaker 1 (31:54):
You're right, You're right, You're right, come on, come on. Okay,
So there's some discrepancy here between what you're saying and
what the producers are saying. But just in Kaitlin, how
many do we have to give away on your sheet
you've given me? You're saying two hundred and eighty seven
single vionettas? Is that correct? Rio just said five minutes ago,
three hundred and something?
Speaker 4 (32:14):
Yeah, I'm not three.
Speaker 1 (32:16):
No, where are you getting that from a sheet? Win
Is We both got the same sheet, but two widely
different numbers. He says, two hundred and eighty seven. Well,
which equates to forty seven slams of six.
Speaker 5 (32:31):
Okay, I know what's happened. We have a folder system
out here, right, and that folder system it's a very
good but when Rio touches it.
Speaker 1 (32:41):
Oh no, no old specky four eyes magoo, oh and
I happening. I'm here with these eyes of mine. It's
by this sub folder.
Speaker 5 (32:52):
Sometimes he just grabs and goes.
Speaker 1 (32:54):
But what's happened is that is an old page that.
Speaker 5 (32:57):
Rio has got it. Sorry about that?
Speaker 6 (32:59):
The updated number seven, I've actually got a more updated number.
Speaker 1 (33:04):
Hang on, this was but I think we have I
don't have access to the folders obviously. Why who gave
me this? Then? Sorry?
Speaker 5 (33:12):
It is very busy here. It is chaotic.
Speaker 13 (33:14):
We have lines jammed full of people who've got text
lines jammed.
Speaker 5 (33:18):
Sometimes we do give some people off a vanetta just
as a nice you know, because they're desperate.
Speaker 1 (33:24):
For the beautiful story. Can we get on with this?
Speaker 5 (33:26):
So we've got two hundred and sixty three is left?
Speaker 1 (33:28):
Two six three? How many slabs is that? That is
two six three divided by six? I didn't get up
that far my Times table revision yesterday. It won't be
divisible by six three, is it? Yeah? Oh?
Speaker 4 (33:41):
Well no, not perfectly forty three point eight. But we're
not going to give someone point eight of a viennetta.
Speaker 1 (33:45):
We'll still what they miss out.
Speaker 4 (33:46):
Well, that's just a little cheky one for us.

Speaker 4 (36:34):
I've already got it's stewing in my mind.

In other words, he hasn't got anything yet. That's correct.
That's correct. That's the long weekend to unstew it some more. Also,
we're going to announcing Wednesday, what are soccer Who's goal

official kick Soccero's predicting pets now we need to find
it all right at the moment, it'd be great if
we could have I've done dog, We've done dogs before.
(37:21):
I want a different kind of animal that can predict
ahead of all the soccer whose games, which team is
going to win? Just give us early confidence, Christian, can
we offer our We've got a sheep, Popcorn, who's actually
very smart, actually thinks they could predict the World Cup winner,
not just socceruse games. He is so smart. We've taught
him how to spin on commands, spin and wins when
(37:44):
Popcors gets popping the winner.
Speaker 4 (37:47):
Sheep's famously though, dim, very dim. Yeah, but smart.
Speaker 1 (37:51):
But Popcorn Popcorn is the genie. Might be the smartest
sheep in the world. Is that that movie that came
out a couple of weeks ago, A huge Chapman?
Speaker 5 (37:56):
Oh yes?
Speaker 1 (37:57):
Is it? The smartest sheep in the world? Names in it, huge,
names in it? What's that sheep movie out with?
Speaker 5 (38:08):
You're not thinking baby?
Speaker 1 (38:09):
No, no, no, that's a pig.
Speaker 4 (38:12):
It rounds up the sheep detective.
Speaker 1 (38:17):
Yeah, anyway, Christian, I have EMUs. You're not having them.
They are the sixth thummus bird in the world. Honestly,
they're too stupid to predict anything. You know, you can't
have my EMUs. All right, EMUs are off the table.
Speaker 3 (38:31):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1 (38:34):
Christian, thanks to Pat's talking about getting a macas this morning.
I'm not going to be late. I've had to make
a teetop getting a sneaky sausage and egg muffin. If
you order yours, we put our order in. Yes. Once
you hear someone have it, I know, and your stomach goes,
bring me food. Yes. New recruit to the show in turn, Pete,
Good morning, Good morning morning everybody. Now, Pete, you're going
(38:56):
to be on the roads in the next forty five
minutes dropping off Vienetta to a couple locations. But you reckon.
You've got a contender for a World Cup.
Speaker 8 (39:04):
Pet I think we have a real winner here, a
very good friend. Her name is Donna. She runs a
wild life retreat for retired circus animals. Right, so the
ones that had to spend their life.
Speaker 1 (39:12):
O slow, this amazing. It's a retreat for retired circus animals.
Speaker 8 (39:18):
Oh, it is the most beautiful place on the outskirts
of Sydney.
Speaker 1 (39:21):
Right.
Speaker 14 (39:21):
Her name as said his Donna, and she has been
all life, basically just giving them the life that they
deserve at the end. But she has heard this, and
she says she has the perfect tiger ready to go
for this. She said, she's even gone two tigers if
(39:42):
we want if something, if something goes wrong, yes, a
tiger was earlier.
Speaker 1 (39:46):
I was going to meet me with the mere spider, right,
so that even bet out by the way, don't you
wish I wish I could go and chat to those
animals and interview them, the stories they would have about
their years in the circus, their chat to each other. Well,
I was once performed in Fremantle over and w a
(40:07):
our awful crowds. There were awful groulse.
Speaker 14 (40:09):
It's so good zombie wildlife retreat. Now, her suggests Donna,
who I adore. But she's like, okay, great, So do
you want to put two annequins in there? And whoever
gets eaten first wins.
Speaker 1 (40:25):
In the middle of the school on wives. It is funny,
I didn't know you were going there. You're gonna say
two men in there, and I've got to go peep.
Not on this show.
Speaker 14 (40:33):
Jackie maybe, but not this show, she did say in
her next text, or two members of the show, So.
Speaker 4 (40:40):
She's on the same.
Speaker 1 (40:43):
Reduce the head cameraund here. Don't tell our bosses that, Pete.
They're going through this company at the moment they would
have if they could have judged cart and Jackie o
in there. Larson standing keeps the show.
Speaker 4 (40:59):
So the offer is there, Yes, yes, I can do
the deal.
Speaker 1 (41:06):
Yes can we can? We speak to on the next
Let's get done. All right, We'll get done her on next.
That's to the deal.
Speaker 3 (41:11):
Christian Connall Show podcast.
Speaker 1 (41:14):
I've had a theory for a while a certain producer
on this team is wherever possible, always trying to fleece
me of extra money. I said, I'd shout the whole
team to McDonald's right, Happy to do that. Got a great,
hardworking team, Suddy Kenny goes, you need to transfer one
hundred dollars? What are we ordering? Fine?
Speaker 5 (41:35):
One hundred?
Speaker 4 (41:36):
Everyone has been getting a couple of meals.
Speaker 1 (41:39):
We're being stucking up the long weekend team. One hundred dollars?
What's it? Commission? On top of that is a Caitlin. Hey,
Christian O'Connell, it's Harrison from yesterday. I'm still in year eight.
Where are the ice creams? Harrison? I love it? Yes,
you can have your you can have your v and
Eda's okay, we'll give you two slabs and Patsy, you're

Speaker 13 (42:05):
No?
Speaker 1 (42:05):
No, no, I'm just thank you that what's that you say?
Speaker 4 (42:10):
I just wanted to apologize, Patsy, I was just very
busy during the song.
Speaker 5 (42:13):
I need you to come in and help me with
my expenses.
Speaker 1 (42:16):
Now that Ria, What are you saying? What are you saying?
Speaker 4 (42:19):
I'm Patty.
Speaker 7 (42:23):
Tigers wondering if I could just pop into the new
studio help her submit some of her expenses.
Speaker 1 (42:28):
So she asked you after the show yesterday to do
that after the day's show, not during the show.
Speaker 5 (42:32):
Well I did ask you monday. You still have them
come in and say so, she messages.
Speaker 7 (42:36):
Just now you interest, you've got time during the song,
can you pop in and just help me with my expense?
Speaker 1 (42:42):
What someone's knocked off?
Speaker 4 (42:45):
Maybe if you've got me a sausage and McMuffin an hour.
Speaker 1 (42:48):
Yeah, yeah, we see how it is all right now,
intern Pete, where are we with our World Cup predicting tigers.
Speaker 8 (42:57):
Oh, we are in a really great place at the moment.
Speaker 14 (42:59):
Now I've actually got the wonderful lady on the phone
who looks after these beautiful retired circle circus animals. That's right,
we have got either one or two tigers to on
what we want to do with them for next Friday
show live.
Speaker 8 (43:12):
On the Christian o'connells Show. Would you please welcome Donna.
Speaker 1 (43:16):
Donna, welcome to the show.
Speaker 11 (43:18):
Hi Christian, please to meet you and you listen to it.
I love your show.
Speaker 1 (43:22):
By the way, We thank you very much for coming
over and joining us, and Donna, thank you for the
great work you do for these lovely animals as well.
Speaker 11 (43:29):
Oh thanks Christian. Yeah, we started like over ten years
ago because there was no sanctuary in Australia that could
offer homes to retired circus animals or animals from the
film industry or even private ownership. So we sort of
started to and be with a handful of big cats
needing homes and we've grown from there. Now we've got
(43:50):
a diversity of species here and it's absolutely beautiful sanctuary
to visit.
Speaker 1 (43:57):
I'd love to come out and say that, shall bring
the kids. My girls would love that. And so how
big is it now? How many acres you've got? How
many animals are they?
Speaker 11 (44:03):
We're situated on fifty acres. It's the old Bullen's Animal
World property. They still own it and they've allowed us
to build this sanctuary on their property. And we've got
probably over one hundred animals, not all of them are
on exhibit. But we do only open to the public
twice a week because I built it for the animals
(44:26):
for their retirement and not so much for people. But
we do open it because we do need to feed them,
we need some income, and we only open for small
groups and it's very exclusive and everyone just loves it.
Speaker 1 (44:41):
It's seem that's going a day trip. I want to
come and see them. So if you need to, yes,
and you're feeding the me accounts at the moment.
Speaker 11 (44:48):
I just finished feeding them there. I just threw a
couple of handfuls of live mealworms around, so we like
someone that.
Speaker 1 (44:55):
Was still we.
Speaker 2 (44:57):
Yes something.
Speaker 1 (45:00):
Now, tell us about the tigers.
Speaker 11 (45:02):
Well, I've actually Sady's home to six tigers. But I've
got two young girls that love to play and love
to do things, So I'm thinking you wanted to put
them up for a challenge, didn't you.
Speaker 1 (45:16):
Yeah, so obviously it's the World Cup stants next week,
and I was looking to see if we get like
a predicting animal to predict the outcome of the socceros games.
And you know, I reckon the tigers could do that
for us with the third eye of the tiger.
Speaker 11 (45:31):
Of course. Now they're pretty clever like that. Tigers. Maybe
not as clever as octopuses, but they don't have a
go on.
Speaker 1 (45:38):
We're going to find out.
Speaker 11 (45:40):
So no, we're happy to join in on the fun
with this one. And we're all big soccer fans, and
they actually love playing with balls. They chase balls around,
so they could probably join the soffers.
Speaker 1 (45:55):
To face some back for that Gaboo chuck. A couple
of tigers there, that's the coach's Tony's secret plan.
Speaker 11 (46:06):
I'm sure they could make the players run.
Speaker 1 (46:08):
Little bit training. This is great, Donna.
Speaker 11 (46:15):
We're excited to come on the show and go at this.
And it's fun, you know, because it's very important when
you have animals in captive environments that you give them
a lot of enrichment. This sort of thing is fun
for them to do.
Speaker 1 (46:28):
So well, beat Pete, I know, said to me that
you'd love to come and help out work and sort
of muck out down there next Friday. So yeah, you're
going to next sort of a hand. They're doing the
feed and slapping out next Friday. Good on your peete
for offering that.
Speaker 8 (46:41):
Oh, absolutely done. I can't wait to catch up.
Speaker 14 (46:43):
I mean, I mean logistically, what are we throwing in
their balls and people mannikins.
Speaker 11 (46:49):
Let me know what you want to do. Come up
with something quite different.
Speaker 1 (46:55):
Great, Donna, you're a legend now, Donna. I'm gonna because
it's such a great thing you're doing. I'd like to
make a donation support the what you do and guessing
your charity. And we've got a lot of big hearted listeners.
