Hey, this is the Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 1 (00:27):
Welcome to the weekend.

Speaker 2 (00:28):
Happy Friday, Everybody, Good morning, Rio, Happy Friday Morning, Annex Monie,
Happy Friday, Patsy Monnie. Now it's the team. Let's get
thread into this week's edition of Double thumbs Up. This
is where we go around the team. We talk about
the shows that we're into, books, TV shows, apps, whatever.
You might find your next favorite TV showedule in the
next twenty minutes. Patsy, what are you giving a double
thumbs up too?

Speaker 5 (00:49):
I did want to pay homage to Diane Keaton, who
we sadly lost this week, far too young at seventeen
to nine. And I was thinking some of my favorite movies,
and there's so many. I watched Father of the Bride
last Saturday night.

Speaker 1 (01:00):
Yeah, we watched it Monday night with the girls. Yeah,
but there was.

Speaker 5 (01:03):
One because I said so, which was a two thousand
and seven flicking you know, just a romantic, sort of
funny story of an overbearing mum with three grown up
daughters and trying to get them set for life and
essentially and this is something that I'm grappling with right
now with Audrey. You have done so with your two girls,

(01:23):
that whole thing of letting go as a parent. And
so Diane's character she there's this beautiful monologue in one
of the scenes where she says, you know, how do
I let go and let essentially let you fly, Bertie Fly.

Speaker 6 (01:40):
It's just gorgeous.

Speaker 2 (01:41):
She could do incredible drama like movies, not the Godfather,
than the comedies, romantic comedies.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
I've never seen Dane Keen in a bad movie.

Speaker 2 (01:48):
No, I don't think she made any bad movies now
incredible ones. If you really are looking for something a
movie to watch every weekend, you can't go past any
of the light forty odd movies. I think I saw
at the other day. She made incredible range. All right,
what else, Pats, she gets your daughter? The other thing?

Speaker 5 (02:02):
Last night we watched I Like Me, which is the
John Candy documentary.

Speaker 1 (02:06):
I've seen this.

Speaker 5 (02:07):
I Oh my god, is it Joyoush's not a funny
funny guy.

Speaker 6 (02:11):
Absolutely and what a talent.

Speaker 5 (02:12):
And it's directed by Colin Hanks, which is Tom.

Speaker 1 (02:16):
Hanks's son gifty comedian himself.

Speaker 5 (02:20):
Yanne Reddold's as well, And it's really got a hues
who of Hollywood has not paying homage to John Candy
and just how realistic and authentic he was on the screen,
and how he brought his total self to the screen
and grappling with several things like imposter syndrome later in
his career, also the loss of his father at just five,
and how he brought that desire for connection and family

(02:45):
to the screen. And you know, there's that scene in Planes,
Trains and Automobiles it's Steve Martin where Steve Martin has
a go at him in the hotel room, you know,
saying how.

Speaker 6 (02:55):
Useless he was, and he says, I like me. And
it's beautiful.

Speaker 2 (02:59):
It's a really moving comedy. Planes Trains and Ortobiles. I
love Steve By and it's one of my comic heroes.
But I'm telling you now, Planes Trains and Automobiles is
John Candy's movie. Yes, it's not the same movie without
John Candy. He provides all the heart in it as
well and proper old school screen presence.

Speaker 1 (03:15):
Yeah. SOE like cool Runnings, there should just.

Speaker 2 (03:18):
Be a twenty four hour Movie channel that just shows
John Candy movies. This relentlessly funny. It's one of those guys.
Is built for comedy as well.

Speaker 5 (03:25):
Yes, yes, And that scene in the train station where
Steve Martin comes in and he's just sitting there and
he's told him that he's on his way home to
his wife, but of course his wife has died like
eight years before.

Speaker 7 (03:36):
There is no wife.

Speaker 5 (03:37):
Steve Martin said, they actually when they went to final cut,
they cut a heap out of it, and he said,
I wish they hadn't because it was just the most extraordinary.

Speaker 2 (03:45):
You can see the full form scene online. Oh my god,
it's really watch this beautiful. Yeah, it is great. All right,
lovely stuff pants. We take a break. We'll come back
here on gold with double thumbs up and you can
share my shoes as well. What are you enjoying at
the moment? Text me oh four seven five three one
oh four three.

Speaker 4 (04:01):
The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
Christian O'Connell Show every Friday. We got around the team
first half hour the show. We call it double thumbs
up the things that we're enjoying at the moment. Two
TV shows for me. One it's a big new show
on Netflix called Boots. Set in the nineties, bully teenager
joins his best friend. They decided to impulsively go and
join the US Marines. It's about boot camp. It's about identity,

(04:26):
coming of age, camaraderie. It is so joyous and really
funny and absolutely loving it. Cannot recommend it enough. Really
really really great show as well. It's very very good
set in the nineties. That's Boots on Netflix. And if
you like a TV show that is grim, will break
your heart. I've got the show for you. My wife

(04:46):
refused to watch it and keep saying to me afterwards
when I just come out, I'm quiet about five or tens.
You've got to put yourself back together. It's the same
writer and showrunn a guy called Brad Inglesby who did
Mayor of East Town.

Speaker 1 (04:58):
Right. I wish it were a great couple of seasons
of a really great crime drama.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
This is called Task. It's the best thing I've ever
seen Mark Ruffalo do. Oh my God, that's blown me away.
It's week by week and normally get quite irritated with
that because these days with selfish, I want I watch it. Oh,
now I want to watch it now. Ain't myself tired?
Give it to me now. But it's on once a week.
It's worth it. If you really do like TV shows
that are layered and it's complex. It blurs the line

(05:24):
completely between good and bad. It's basically the TV show
remember the movie Heat. We've got cops and robbers, but
they kind of a grudge and respect between each other.
It's like a TV modern day version of that.

Speaker 8 (05:35):
Oh you would bloody love? Oh my god, I do.
This show actually made me cry this week. It's a
beautiful show, but it is not. If you're looking for
a feel good show, stick to Boots. If you wanted
a bit grim, if the National made the TV detective show,
they would make Tasks.

Speaker 1 (05:51):
I have loved it Rio. What's it for you? Mate?
What do you give? Double thumbs up?

Speaker 9 (05:57):
If you do want something a bit lighter you just
watched ask. I would highly recommend on Stand. It just
came out on Sunday. It's called One More Shot. I
actually saw it at the Melbourne Film Festival. It got
a big standing ovation. It's awesome. It is an ausy
comedy set at the turn of the millennium, So a
Y two K house party with a time traveling bottle

(06:19):
of tequila.

Speaker 7 (06:20):
It is so much fun.

Speaker 9 (06:22):
It's very aussy, very ousy humor, but like really really well.

Speaker 1 (06:26):
Done, brilliant.

Speaker 7 (06:26):
It actually starts.

Speaker 1 (06:28):
We need to get behind this.

Speaker 7 (06:29):
It's really good.

Speaker 9 (06:30):
And do you remember we a few years ago we
did Grouse the musical, which was we did our own
Aussie version of Greece for grown ups. Yes, it was
written by Fiona Harris, your friend and Mike.

Speaker 1 (06:42):
Yes.

Speaker 7 (06:43):
Yeah, she's great. So got a show connection.

Speaker 9 (06:46):
It's so much fun, a great like a Sunday night watch,
perfect like perfect to one one shot, one more shot,
one more shot.

Speaker 1 (06:53):
And it's on Stan.

Speaker 7 (06:54):
It's on Stan. It's brilliant.

Speaker 4 (06:56):
Okay, Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 2 (07:00):
On the show right now, we're doing double thumbs up.
You tell us about the things you're into at the
moment that you would recommend. It might be a TV show, book,
whatever it is. Oh four seventy five three one O
four three, Alex will short, double thumbs.

Speaker 1 (07:11):
Up, mate, what do you enjoying.

Speaker 10 (07:12):
I'm staying with Diane Caaden, who passed away in the
week at age seventy nine, and I guess this is
such a great film for her range the Godfather trilogy.
She was in Godfather one and two, and apparently the
director Francis Ford Coppola, he saw her in Lovers and
Other Strangers and cast her for the role of Kay
Adams in The Godfather, which was Michael Corleoni's wife, who

(07:34):
was not in the mafia, had nothing to do with
the mafia.

Speaker 11 (07:37):
At Kay.

Speaker 10 (07:37):
She's this white Anglo Saxon Protestant American and she provides
that kind.

Speaker 11 (07:41):
Of that good that good versus evil.

Speaker 10 (07:45):
She always wants Michael Corleoni sort of to legitimize the
business and tries to protect her children from that awful,
awful crime family, I suppose, and she's family.

Speaker 11 (07:56):
Well, you know that's the MARKI.

Speaker 1 (08:02):
Lucy Goosey.

Speaker 2 (08:04):
You know it's not all at sea, far from it.

Speaker 1 (08:08):
That's not quite the American gene lads, and you know it,
how am I?

Speaker 10 (08:12):
Anyways, she didn't want to be in Godfather too, but
she read the script and let's do it. And yes,
it was so so good in that And massive respect
to her.

Speaker 2 (08:21):
If you're a Godfather fan, right, I cannot recommend enough
a book I read last year, Take the Canoi. It's
about the making of the Godfather. Every chapter is a
bad E Belieople story, almost a story of the making
of the Godfather. Is almost just as dramatic and entertaining
as the actual movie itself.

Speaker 10 (08:37):
Highest dressing film ever made. Oh, such a great movie. Incredible,
I've got one more off. Oh yeah, I'm just can
I just talk about the croissants at BP. Like the
croissants at BP I get. I often stop in there
on my way into work. Triple thumbs up for these things.
Triples they are. They're so good, they cost only cost

(09:00):
four dollars. There's so crisp loan. What's loon learn shmoon?
I say, compared to these chris smooth out of the
box these things. I highly recommend them. Croissanted BP. Get
in you'll love it. Love and they really are they
really buttery.

Speaker 11 (09:20):
They're so buttery. They're so crunchy cross.

Speaker 1 (09:24):
I'm right now in trouble. Is very messy, aren't they?

Speaker 9 (09:26):
Yes, very hard to eat with any dignity that you're
a mess after brushing for the next hour. Maybe we
should get a French person to try the bpequas on
and get a real French review to see if this
up to stand it.

Speaker 1 (09:43):
I'm not remotely interested in doing that.

Speaker 10 (09:45):
Put them out of blindfold and we'll give them like
different croissants.

Speaker 2 (09:48):
And is matched to get get out of the whole
One year Old Lady interview this week, all right, don't
put my head.

Speaker 1 (09:55):
Back on the chopping block. Okay, with a croissant review
from Claws. It's Friday, guys, the shows off the tracks.
I'll tell you what.

Speaker 2 (10:03):
I've got no time for that bloody Corleone family up
to it again, Shenanigans.

Speaker 4 (10:09):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 1 (10:13):
Anyone else on this team can't stand for ironing.

Speaker 7 (10:17):
I hate it. It's the worst thing.

Speaker 2 (10:19):
It's one of the evils of modern life, isn't it.
I just remember, like one of the first ideas that
adult life wasn't quite what I thought was going to
be as a kid, was just having to iron in
my life. Before I got an into radio, I had
a sales job and I just remember the bane of
having to always iron shirts for work and it just

(10:42):
been the worst part of the day every morning. It
wasn't a job I wanted to do. And I'd have
my mankey old ironing board and this tiny mankey flat
that constantly got burgled in London where my girlfriend and
I became my wife used to live and just doing
those shirts every morning, thinking this it's like, you know,
there's scenes in every musical where someone goes.

Speaker 1 (11:03):
This can't be the life for me.

Speaker 2 (11:08):
I be listening to the radio ironing my shirts, trying
to work out how could I ever get into that
box the radio to do with the guy was doing
doing a breakfast show, rather than be at this ironing
board ironing flipping shirts.

Speaker 9 (11:21):
And ironing board technology has not improved in the same oldunky.

Speaker 2 (11:26):
Yeah, Lillian, you know our special guest this week who
turned one hundred on Wednesday. Out of all the other
advancements she's seen, ironing boards are the same as when
Lillian was born as they are now exactly.

Speaker 1 (11:38):
But what how could they improve? We're going to have
ironing boards.

Speaker 9 (11:41):
You know what I hate is that the bit that
scares me is when you put the legs up and
then put them back, And I'm always worried about when
you put them back.

Speaker 6 (11:49):
Exactly.

Speaker 5 (11:50):
I only do school uniforms these days, I have to say,
and drives me insane because there's several plates in like
Audrey's summer dress.

Speaker 1 (11:58):
And they're really precise in the summer dresses.

Speaker 5 (12:02):
Actually insane. Chris does all his own shirts. Yeah, oh absolutely, yeah.

Speaker 2 (12:07):
I still have to do one a week. I do
on like a Sunday. And one of the things my
mother in law taught me. She used to she used
to come around to our house once a week and
she loved daytime TV like a lot of old people
who watch Alex, and she used to she used to

(12:28):
sit from the TV. And I didn't realize you can
adjust the height of an ironing board. She would, so
she would sit on the couch, lower it to be
sort of knee high iron and watch TV for about
two hours.

Speaker 1 (12:41):
Oh my god. It was the perfect system.

Speaker 2 (12:44):
She would do it, she would she would do the inning. Alex,
I'll tell you what you could do with Have you
got an iron.

Speaker 1 (12:48):
By the way, Alex, I've got an iron.

Speaker 11 (12:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (12:50):
I want to use it, mate, Because those T shirts
you wear often Rio, how crumpled does Alex looks.

Speaker 9 (12:55):
It's almost like you deliberately crumple the T shirt. It's
like you've got a T shirt.

Speaker 1 (13:00):
You're not like that.

Speaker 2 (13:01):
On Channel seven between one and three you crumple for radio.
You're freshly pressed.

Speaker 11 (13:07):
They pressed and ready T shirt. I don't know.

Speaker 1 (13:10):
Mates, I can tramp for a hobo.

Speaker 11 (13:15):
Own my shirts, but only I'm the front part. I don't.
I'm the slave.

Speaker 6 (13:19):
Alex.

Speaker 2 (13:20):
No, I've done that before, Alex. I do that sometimes
if I need his shirt to go for dinner.

Speaker 1 (13:24):
I won't iron the back. And then when I get
up to go to toilet, my wife because.

Speaker 2 (13:28):
You need to iron the back. It looks terrible. Who's
looking at my back?

Speaker 11 (13:32):
Exactly?

Speaker 10 (13:32):
And if you're wearing a jumper, what's the point of
even ironing the shirt at all?

Speaker 5 (13:35):
You got the shirt under the same if it's all
lovely impressed, doesn't it feel like weird up against your skin?

Speaker 1 (13:42):
No, not at all. No, No, I tell you. One
of the best things, you know, Sometimes you can.

Speaker 2 (13:47):
Buy stuff that actually actually does make a difference in
your life. Like slow cooker. You buy that, it makes
a really big difference in your life. The other one
is buying a couple years ago a steamine.

Speaker 6 (13:58):
Yeah, are they any good?

Speaker 1 (14:01):
Of course? They're all handheld. We got butler. The ones
that you do that my butler loves it, right, you know,
is like.

Speaker 9 (14:08):
Obviously your classic iron, which you do on a press down.

Speaker 7 (14:12):
The other one that you hold up to it like
a No.

Speaker 2 (14:15):
They have those in fancy clothes shops, don't they. They're
always steaming TV they have them as well. No, this
is this is an iron, but it takes like five
minutes to warm it up. It's a big thing. That
isn't just an iron. It sits in something with a
lot of water. Yeah, my god, guys, get a steamine.
It sort of melts the shirt creaseless immediately. I wish

(14:40):
I could put it on my face because it would
it would take decades off.

Speaker 1 (14:45):
Let's take a quick break.

Speaker 4 (14:46):
We were back the Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 2 (14:51):
Christian and I went to Algae to buy a tent,
came home with a law mower. This is a throwback
to all we were talking about it yesterday. Christian, I
would rather iron clothes and fold clothes and put away Ryan,
I know what you mean. Actually I would prefer to iron.
Then for the folding and putting away of clothes is
hell to me.

Speaker 9 (15:10):
It's hell getting all the washing in the washing machine,
putting it up, fine work.

Speaker 7 (15:17):
The next part is it takes so long? Takes so long?

Speaker 2 (15:20):
I refuse, Yes, I refuse to bother folding up tea towels,
so I because basically get scrunched when they come out,
so I think it's okay to so often I just
roll them up into a ball, put them in the drawer,
struggle to shut the drawer, kick the drawers shut, and
then it's like.

Speaker 1 (15:39):
A lovely jack in the box as you open it.
My wife it doesn't nuts because she's like, fold the
tea tooels. It doesn't matter. They're gonna get.

Speaker 2 (15:47):
They're gonna get scrunched immediately. They don't need to be folded.

Speaker 11 (15:51):
My mother in law irons the tea tails. What she
irons the tea tails.

Speaker 2 (15:56):
She's down to nabby. Is she the housekeeper? That is incredible.

Speaker 10 (16:00):
She's done with us recently and I saw her doing
it and I'm like, I was amazed.

Speaker 2 (16:06):
We have way too many tea towels. I'm going to
do an account this weekend, but I reckon. I estimate
it's at least thirty crazy Honestly, it's way too many
tea towels.

Speaker 1 (16:17):
I've even got an oasis tea town of Coos.

Speaker 2 (16:21):
A receptionist gave it to me when he was in London.
He saw the oasis at the merch store. Had that
logo on just about anything they could make money from.
And he was like a tea tower and he was like,
oh my god, I bet English people love tea towels
where Christian would love. It's my favorite tea towel. I
think we should have for the national show that starts
next year. Maybe we should have show tea towels. Yes,

(16:42):
and every day isn't.

Speaker 7 (16:43):
It, but please fold them up, don't scrunch them.

Speaker 2 (16:46):
Like all right, whatever people got on this weekend, I
have quite the giddy day to day of high level excitement.

Speaker 1 (16:58):
I kea flat pack assembly from my new shiny.

Speaker 2 (17:02):
Alex desk and Alex's chair with arms, paid extra to
have with arms.

Speaker 7 (17:09):
Axir, what do you mean?

Speaker 2 (17:11):
That's what it's called. So I'm guessing that it's it's
probably quite crumpled.

Speaker 1 (17:19):
So I've got that.

Speaker 2 (17:20):
And then if anyone's ever taken the warranty out on
a new couch, it's called the Guardsman. It's like a
stained sort of thing there they persuade. A man is
coming out from guardsmen to try and de stain. Do
you remember still it was about three weeks ago. It's
finally the day is today. He's coming out today to
de red Wine our cream couch. I am so excited, genuinely,

(17:44):
I'm not I'm not just saying this. I'm so excited
to see what he does and how he does it well.

Speaker 9 (17:49):
I want to see his will because there's such a
mysterious organization, the guards, but it sounds like a secret
society and I've never had to use them. I want
to see, like, tell us what car they come in,
what are they wearing? You have like a secret code
or something to come in.

Speaker 7 (18:03):
I'm very intrigued.

Speaker 1 (18:04):
You know what it feels like to me. I'm going
to watch him do his whole thing.

Speaker 2 (18:07):
It's a bit like when those plays called vide we
used to see someone like make Glass or something like that. Yes,
where it's instructural and actually quite so almost meditative, where
you're just seeing someone very good at their job operate.
So yeah, I am so excited to day by that. Ria,
what's the head for you look forward to this weekend?

Speaker 7 (18:26):
Will not look forward to? That wouldn't be the words
I'd be using.

Speaker 1 (18:30):
I care flat pack is not something to get excited about.

Speaker 9 (18:33):
I agreed to go to a play with my partner
Will tonight just you know, he said it's a play
up in Collin. When I said great, I did not
and I won't make this mistake again. Did not read
the blurb of what the play is about. It is
an intimate, experimental production that draws heavily on audience participation,
so much so that there's a microphone for the audience

(18:55):
and every audience member has to come up and engage
with the performance on stay.

Speaker 1 (19:01):
No, no, no, you do that for living. You don't
do that night.

Speaker 2 (19:04):
And also lazy ass actors do your job.

Speaker 7 (19:08):
Yes, I'm paying you. Why am I doing that?

Speaker 11 (19:10):
Actually?

Speaker 2 (19:11):
Otherwise we've got to split the money with this exactly
following you.

Speaker 1 (19:14):
That sounds dreadful. Is it a big theater or.

Speaker 9 (19:16):
I think it's just more of like a community. It
says very intimate. I think there's only fifteen to twenty
people in the space.

Speaker 1 (19:24):
It's pressure. Oh I need to hear about that. Yeah,
it's a lot of pressure. Alex. What are you up
to this weekend? I need some T shirts fingers crossed.

Speaker 10 (19:31):
I will be ironing actually because we're going to a
ball in Sydney, a smashing grab affair.

Speaker 1 (19:37):
It is.

Speaker 11 (19:38):
Will be up and back just for the night. Bonnie's
sister is very much.

Speaker 10 (19:41):
Do you mean just to night? You mean you're not
staying we're staying. Well, no, we're not want to go
into tomorrow. So we're just up for the night and
then we're back. Oh how very Sydney, just in and out?
You know, is it the met Gala?

Speaker 11 (19:52):
It's the MCA, the Museum of Contemporary Art Artists.

Speaker 1 (19:55):
Oh wow, y swish.

Speaker 11 (19:57):
Yeah, it's lovely.

Speaker 10 (19:57):
It's right on the harbor and we haven't been back
since we left Sydney, so it's a bit of a
homecoming of sorts and keep coming.

Speaker 1 (20:05):
Like people are going to be parading in the story
Sun's Color. The Manager's on TV at in the afternoon.

Speaker 11 (20:16):
Home it's going to be a bus.

Speaker 1 (20:20):
Open bus parades.

Speaker 10 (20:23):
But you know what, I'm looking forward to some quiet time.
It's not gonna be for very long, but that doesn't matter.
Some quiet time. You know, it's been it's been a
hard few weeks with the kids. They're they're pretty fall
on at the moment. So we're just gonna have a
nice It's.

Speaker 2 (20:35):
A very relatable story for any parent when they want
to get away from their kids. I always say, go
to a garlic and just get some mum and dad time.
What are you up to this weekend? You're back out
fighting on the cobbles.

Speaker 5 (20:47):
No, no way, We love God has the egg chair
to erect tomorrow is his job. And then we.

Speaker 1 (20:54):
Got to do is get it. You don't have to
build them, you you do.

Speaker 6 (20:57):
It's all in a flat box.

Speaker 7 (20:58):
Wow's one we forget.

raw materials.

Speaker 2 (21:06):
If you saw some screws, some poles, fabric put it together.

Speaker 5 (21:10):
Well, and then planning out what's happening, then planning Christmas
holiday because we are that family that leave everything to
the last minute because we love paying top dollar for it.

Speaker 6 (21:22):
You know, when we fly, what are you thinking about
going Fiji?

Speaker 11 (21:25):
Maybe?

Speaker 1 (21:26):
Oh my God cannot recommend it enough recommendations.

Speaker 2 (21:29):
It's a beautiful, beautiful The Fijians are so the like
type people, really humble, very very kind, really gracious.

Speaker 1 (21:36):
You've been to Fiji, haven't your here? It's a great place.

Speaker 9 (21:38):
Yes, beautiful place. A bit late, I would say. Any
Fiji time is definitely a real thing. So add half
an hour onto any want.

Speaker 2 (21:47):
Yeah, very very yeah. None of them have watches. And
then when you if you go to the rest of all
the food. You realize maybe someone should have a watch
one of you. Please have a watch it.

Speaker 4 (22:00):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 2 (22:04):
Christian Patsy, you should start Plantation Island. It really is
the best. Pass too much, Mike, go to Fiji. Christian,
I'll just start playing basebort fifty three years of an age.
It's not the Robert Redford in the movie The Natural.
This week I make my senior debut play next to
my sixteen year old son in Division five. I can't wait, Shane,

(22:24):
Please let us no wonder how it goes.

Speaker 1 (22:26):
What a great thing to do.

Speaker 7 (22:27):
That's amazing.

Speaker 1 (22:28):
Christian.

Speaker 2 (22:28):
I called in a couple of weeks ago you will
talk about the guardsman couch protection, and I just heard
you say today's the day he comes out. Sit back
and enjoy the show. They can I'm ten to thirty.
This guy gets it. They can remove anything in minutes.
Whatever these cleaning products are must be kept extremely secret.

Speaker 1 (22:48):
They do not share where you can buy this stuff.

Speaker 2 (22:52):
James, Christian, you're right, well, washing takes one hour, and
it takes it between five to seven business days to
fold and put stuff away.

Speaker 12 (23:01):
Brock.

Speaker 1 (23:01):
That is exactly that's the ratio. One hour to five.

Speaker 2 (23:05):
To seven business working days to fold and put the
stuff away.

Speaker 1 (23:08):
That rock all right.

Speaker 2 (23:09):
This week one of our stories that we loved was
about the amazing storre of the lady in Brisbane who
went into labor and gave birth in the driveway of
the hospital and to very quick thinking amazing maternity nurses
ran out and assisted two persons. The baby was out
in her car. Someone then turned up with a sheet,

(23:31):
some kind of dignity sheet to theyn obviously get her
out of the car and onto a hospital bed and
into the hospital. So today we're again looking for your
stories about where did you go into labor and if
you weren't born in a hospital, where were you born?
On thirteen double five, double two. Caitlyn, where did your
mum go into hospital? This is incredible story.

Speaker 13 (23:51):
Yes, so my mum was at the club with my
dad on the pokies when she went into labor.

Speaker 2 (23:58):
Now, I know some of you sometimes go a Christian.
Come on, maybe it's a bit unfair to call Kitlyn
a bogan. Did you just hear what Caitlyn said? Her
mum was at the club, regnant, probably heavily already sort
of getting ready to bursta thought the place to go
is the Poky's. Yea, nine months previously there's been too
much poky.

Speaker 13 (24:19):
So yeah, they're at a place called Twin Towns, which
we call Twenties.

Speaker 6 (24:23):
And yeah, and they were on the Pokey's.

Speaker 13 (24:26):
I think it was Dad playing and then she went,
oh oh, and when I think we have to go,
and Dad said, can you just wait.

Speaker 6 (24:36):
Before I finish?

Speaker 2 (24:40):
And I I'm about to pay out, So yeah, you.

Speaker 13 (24:47):
Know, another thirty minutes they left Twenties and headed to
the hospital.

Speaker 2 (24:51):
Wow, well that's a long time when you really go
into labor as well, well, going to labor at the Pokies,
you do not. Someone this week sent me an emails
saying that we should do a feature called That's So Australian.
If we were to do it, I feel like it's
actually it's this going into labor at the Poky's.

Speaker 9 (25:07):
That's so and it is really your origin story.

Speaker 2 (25:12):
You're right, it's like Peter Parker eccellently getting bitten by
the radioactive spider. Yes, Kailin actually born, actually going into
labor at the Pokey's.

Speaker 4 (25:24):
Christian O'Connell show one podcast.

Speaker 2 (25:28):
This week one If you send me an email saying Christian,
you should do a feature called that sole Australian. I think,
with producericating saying that her mum went into labor at
the Pokey's, it feels like there's no better time to
do it, and you just yes. And on the show
we spoke to a caller with an incredible name, Chanel Palace.
Those two things for like, it's time to start. That's

(25:50):
so Australian, going to labor at Pokey's, giving your daughter
the name Chanel Palace.

Speaker 11 (25:57):
You know, it's also very Australian.

Speaker 10 (25:59):
I won one hundred and seventy dollars on the poking
machines at that club, probably fifteen years later.

Speaker 7 (26:05):
How what are the odds.

Speaker 2 (26:08):
One of the odds, I tell you, what is so
Australian is just a joy of the meat raffle.

Speaker 1 (26:15):
Oh, oh my god.

Speaker 2 (26:16):
Who doesn't have any anyone on the show won a
meat raffle. I couldn't even imagine how exciting that must be.

Speaker 1 (26:22):
Till win I have.

Speaker 13 (26:24):
I have won and I'm not joking. Five Christmas Hams
in one city.

Speaker 2 (26:30):
Yeah, we're taking down the You're like Danny Ocean and
they're taking.

Speaker 1 (26:35):
Down Yeah, that's dodgy.

Speaker 6 (26:40):
No, no, no.

Speaker 1 (26:40):
By Christmas, hams jockeys.

Speaker 13 (26:44):
Literally were sitting with my cousins, my aunties and all
that around the tables.

Speaker 1 (26:47):
So the same person that's so Australian inbreed.

Speaker 13 (26:56):
We're at like a little New South Wales coastal town,
really really small, and we were there for Christmas. We'd
gone up to the local pub and we're sitting there,
bought all of our tickets and there were loads of
people there and.

Speaker 1 (27:08):
Yeah, we love some meat raffles.

Speaker 13 (27:11):
All the locals were giving us death stairs because we
had ham as a floor. There was that many hands
underneath our table that they were all like, every person,
you're looking.

Speaker 1 (27:23):
To you chet down the house. That's incredible. I'm jealous.

Speaker 13 (27:31):
Everyone went home with a ham that weekend and we'll
live it.

Speaker 7 (27:34):
There needs to be a.

Speaker 9 (27:35):
Royal commission into these sort of meat raffles because we
every year go to a tennis competition out in the country.
I won't say which one, but every year they do it.

Speaker 2 (27:44):
I mean, say which one are you were that Kate's
going to go there check it down Taiten's crew.

Speaker 9 (27:49):
I believe that it is rigged because every year the
same family pulls in on meat after meat after meat,
and it's always them every year. There's got to be
something very suspicious going on. It's during the Labor Day holiday.
You know who you are.

Speaker 1 (28:06):
You're onto somebody here.

Speaker 2 (28:07):
This goes right to expose a meat raffles scandal.

mouth whilst doing a task and not even taking a drag,
just the satisfaction of having it.

Speaker 1 (28:27):
You're right.

Speaker 2 (28:28):
It apparently welded to someone's lip and there there's no
puff on it. That's from Santo Christian. So Australian friend
of mine gave birth in the Yarraw Junction. Bottle of
dry throat. No, that's up there with going into abrat
Pokey's Sarah. That's an incredible one, Christian. I was on
holiday in Lawn and a cockatoo flew into my hotel room,

used to believe there was a man standing inside the
traffic lights pushing a button to change the lights for us. Tim,
this is all my favorite ones as well. That dogs
are boys and cats were girls. It's amazing how many

had to climb a ladder to board the plane. Light
bus stops, the plane would stop and you would get on.
The ladders were raised when a plane was coming and
held by guys at the bottom.

That's it's a good system, it is. That's when Kim
Karlik Christian.

I used to believe that my mum's threat that naughty
children became mannequins, Jim.

Speaker 1 (42:39):
Those parental threats.

Speaker 2 (42:40):
Should carry on like that, you end up like a mannequin,
because just catching up on the yesterday's show. When I
was younger, my older brother made me believe that I
was missing a testicle. He told me that every boy
has three, that when I was younger, that I've been
involved in a terrible car crush and had to get
one of them removed. I was in tears when he

(43:04):
told me, and believed him, and still until we started
doing and that me in school.

Speaker 1 (43:12):
Jordan, this is.

Speaker 7 (43:15):
Excuse me, miss, you'll actually fine.

Speaker 2 (43:18):
Maybe update these textbooks. There's only a pair here, and
it's three actually, But Sandy, that car accident, I do
not remember.

Speaker 1 (43:26):
The only thing lost in a car accident was one
of my clackers.

two What did you believe as a kid? And you

always my favorite bits of the show.

Speaker 1 (43:45):
After those, they're adverts. You have a choice. If you
stay with us, you will be subjected to Shannon.

Speaker 7 (43:52):
No, not subjected, you will be blessed.

Speaker 2 (43:53):
You'll be subjected to the sounds and tones of Shannon.

Speaker 3 (43:56):

Speaker 1 (44:08):
I'm gust Christian.

Speaker 2 (44:09):
I am all teams, Team Nolesey against Team Sebastian.

Speaker 1 (44:13):
Guys, where are you getting this from? This is Rio's
fault about bringing you together.

Speaker 2 (44:18):
Why can't we live in a world where the Team
Nolesey also respect and hug Team Sebastian. Christian, I was
the right page of twelve one guy beat him to
the Australian Idol Grant Final.

Speaker 1 (44:29):
I cried and cried. I understand. I'm still crying, Christian.

Speaker 2 (44:36):
What I used to believe is a kid. I used
to believe that Australia was just Victoria. There are a
lot of Victorians. I still believe that now, and the
Western Australia. South Australia was a different These are different
countries all together. Only worked out when I started going
to school and saw on atlas that's from Adam Christian
when I was a child, and the basis of trees
converting carbon dioxide into oxygen. I used to think that

(44:58):
inside the tree was a scuba tank.

Speaker 1 (45:00):
Would do this? Do this? That's such a great image.

Speaker 7 (45:07):
It's easy to understand.

Speaker 9 (45:08):
And then whatever the actual scientific explanation, I'm happy to
go with that.

Speaker 1 (45:12):
It's a convenient truth. Christian.

Speaker 2 (45:15):
As a kid, my mom would tell me that if
I wasn't tucked up in bed by nine o'clock in
the evening, the nine o'clock horses would come and take
me away.

Speaker 1 (45:23):
It works.

Speaker 2 (45:24):
I'm still mildly scared now, and I see the clock
and see it's eight fifty nine, and wind about those
nine o'clock horses.

Speaker 1 (45:30):
Who knew about the legend of the nine o'clock horse.
That's a great one.

Speaker 2 (45:33):
Yeah, all right, so what did you used to believe
as a kid? You can text the show four seven
five three one O four three. You can call us

Speaker 7 (46:00):
Not great that, Hey, I knew you were a team guy.

Speaker 9 (46:02):
As soon as I first met you seven years ago,
I was like, this guy's team guy for sure.

Speaker 1 (46:07):
How do you cut me?

Speaker 2 (46:10):
I played guys Sebastian okay, guilty mea Kalpa Christian. And
when I was growing up, I used to believe that
jet stream planes left in the sky were jet lag
and never understood why they made you tired. That's from Tanya.
And let's take some calls. Now we're talking about were
strange things used to believe as a kid. Morning Kim,

(46:33):
Good morning, Hey, welcome to the show.

Speaker 1 (46:35):
Kim.

Speaker 12 (46:36):
Thanks for calling, Thank you for having me.

Speaker 1 (46:39):
That's quite a right, all right, So Kim, what did
young Kim believe as a kid?

Speaker 12 (46:44):
So young Kim, And I'm ashamed to admit that young
Kim was into her teens before she realized this wasn't true.
Every road with the same name was the same road.

Speaker 9 (47:00):
Oh, it is crazy though, like in some suburbs in Melbourne.
Actually in Richmond, there's two there's Chapel Street and Fir Street,
and there's two Chapel Streets that are smaller Chapel Streets
off Je Streets.

Speaker 12 (47:15):
Yeah, so I believe that it didn't matter where the
road was. If it had the same name, it somehow
would join up and it would be the same road.

Speaker 1 (47:23):
Never ending road.

Speaker 7 (47:25):
And you'll get this.

Speaker 1 (47:26):
You'll get this, Kim. That's a great one. Kim. Have
a lovely weekend, mate, take care of you too.

Speaker 12 (47:31):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (47:32):
Jenny. Good morning, Jenny, Good morning, Christian.

Speaker 3 (47:35):
How are you?

Speaker 1 (47:35):
I'm good Jenny and Jenny. What did young Jenny believe
as a kid.

Speaker 3 (47:40):
So my mom she purchased some eggs and I somehow
heard her drop the word battery, and I thought what
And I said to my big brother, what's the battery egg?
And he said, okay, So what it is is they
get the chruk and they get a piece of wire
and they hook it up to the chruk's leg and
in the other end goes to a battery. And when
they want an egg, they touched the battery and better

(48:00):
than that, you got an egg. It shocks the chook,
it drops an egg, and that's a battery. Hen And
I was like, oh my god, is awful. But the
worst thing Nutritian. Years and years later, many years later,
my husband and I bought a milk back and we
had this lady turn up and she had a vand
and she had eggs and she's coming and I'm in
my twenties twenty six. She's coming and she's like, oh,

(48:21):
I just want to know if you want to buy milk.
And I looked at her, said exactly, And she said, well,
the battery, eg, how could you how could.

Speaker 1 (48:30):
You dry them up to electrodes?

Speaker 3 (48:37):
That it's discussing. She'd ended up leaving the shop and
my husbands like, you need to calm down.

Speaker 7 (48:41):
I was you need to read a book.

Speaker 1 (48:47):
Australian.

Speaker 3 (48:47):
Don't have my sister finally time in my thirties, Jennifer.
That's he was just.

Speaker 1 (48:52):
Trying to sit down and have the chat about the
chops and the battery agains every heads. Yeah yeah, Jenny,
that's a classic Jenny.

Please tell everyone what you believed about iPods.

put on the iPad pod, the heavier it gets.

Speaker 2 (49:15):
That's just remind us sold you're a managing in your forties, right,
They've not been around that long, you know. They're not
like an ancient technology. So by my rating, you would
have been in your thirties when you believe this.

it's so much lighter now.

Speaker 1 (49:40):
Well, I can't judge. I remember.

Speaker 2 (49:43):
I think it was only about ten years ago when
we were going to one of these farms you can
take kids too, and I was trying to we were
looking at these animals. I was trying to work out
with my daughters, who were a lot younger than which
ones were sheeps and lambs. And I did not know
until my forties about sheeps and lambs. I thought there
were two completely different things. My wife was like, what

(50:04):
do you mean, which one's a sheep and a lamb? Well, okay,
how you tell them aparture? Are you joking? I had
no idea.

After playing that abomination cover version of a class song,
you don't get to complain about Nicoback anymore, Julie, I'm
just a song messenger, Christian. When I was a kid,
we often had fish and chips on a Friday, same here.

Speaker 1 (52:18):

Speaker 2 (52:39):
When I was honest to believe that when the news
talked about three armed men or four armed men robin
a bank.

Speaker 1 (52:44):

in the bedroom go on. The nation is currently in
the midst of a baby recession, with record low birth
rate of just one point four eight babies per woman.

more baby making in the country.

a baby boner.

Speaker 1 (55:10):
