point three podcast playlist and listen live on the free

Speaker 2 (00:19):
Hey, this is the Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

Speaker 1 (00:27):
Welcome to a weekend. It's a big Friday show here
on Gold one four point three. Christian O'Connell's show. Here.
Good morning, Rio, good morning, Good morning, Alex Colin morning,
Good morning, Patsy.

Speaker 3 (00:37):
Hello.

Speaker 1 (00:37):
All right, so let's get into this week's double thumbs up.
We do this every Friday on the show. We go
around the team, we talk about the TV shows, all
the things we're into this week. If you're looking for
your next favorite TV show this weekend, to set all
of those arguments on the couch, we have your back,
all right for me? Then, first thing is on Stan
second season of an outstanding TV show called Gold is

(01:01):
the true life dramatization of the Brinx Matt robbery years
ago in London, biggest in the world. They still haven't
recovered a lot of the gold, even in twenty twenty five.
And it's the story changed policing around the world, how
they caught the people. And it's the second season of
it even better than the first one. Hugh Bonnival's in
it. It was a great actor. Everyone knows Wrosar. You mean

(01:24):
the dad from Paddington Did you know in the eighties
he was a met police detective who apprehended a lot
of the criminals. Hugh Bonnival's in it. He's very, very good.
So I do keep thinking I hope Paddington's on the case.
I only could lay off those marble made sandwiches for
a couple of days and he soon nabbed them. I
can't recommend that that's outstanding On Netflix. I really love

(01:44):
the food TV show called Somebody Feed Phil. This is
Phil Rosenthal who was the writer and showrunner for Everybody
Loves Raymond, and he's got their own cookery show he's
been doing is basically it's an eating show. He goes
around the world and just eats. In the new season,
season eight, he comes to Australia on No Way, he's

(02:05):
in Sydney and then he goes to Adelaide and also
one of the episodes is in Vegas. Because I loved
Everybody Loves Raymond that he's reunited with Ray Romano and
Brad Garrett and it is they have a dinner together,
and it is so funny. Brad Garrett is a very
very funny guy as well. He's a stand up in
his own right, obviously not the same caliber as Ray Romano,
He's one of the best in the while, but the

(02:25):
three of them reunite and talk about the TV show
and the banter. It is a joyous watch because sometimes
watching other people stuff their face faces in exotic locations.
You know, I gave up what I love Stanley Tucci
and even bought the book. But watching him in his
ARMANI suits ain't a bloody great sandwich, right, I'm thinking, yeah,

(02:47):
without shiny boarded, but beautifully a tired man, you know,
And I'm like, it must be nice for you.

Speaker 4 (02:54):
That whole series Toucci in Italy seems is it just
a bit pissed off the whole time as well?

Speaker 3 (02:59):
It's just a bit grumpy.

Speaker 1 (03:01):
Eating the best job in the world, goes it around
the world, eating the best food and drinking the best wines,
and he seems permanently peed off. And anyway, the other
thing I want to do maybe this is a new
feature where I review and rate beers and wines. I
had a beer last week, right, I don't really drink
a lot of beer these days, but by god, I
had this log. It's a local one here in Victoria.

(03:23):
I think it's in Seaford. Banks Beer. Oh my god,
my word, I'll be your friend at the fridge this weekend.
That is so good. Shout out to Banks Beer. I
think they're in Seaford. That is a crisp.

Speaker 3 (03:38):
Lager and you are a lager special.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
Let's just leave it off. I am, you're right, I'm
very dehydrated sometimes at lunch time. I'll tell you what.
It's a talking It can unhydrate a human being. And
so the way I like to remoisturize the throat and
larynx is through Laka.

Speaker 2 (03:57):
And the Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 1 (04:01):
Passy. What are you giving your double thumbs up to
this week? What have you loved With.

Speaker 5 (04:04):
The recent passing of Ozzy Osbourne? We have got back
into the osborns now. I know the reality show was
around ages ago, but we're watching it with Audrey and
it's just so endearing. I just love Ossie on that
and they call him Daddy and it's just Sharon the
business brain. What a phenomenal woman.

Speaker 1 (04:21):
She said she only saved his life and got him
off the charts and rehab. But more than that, she
totally rebuilt his business and a real male dominated, very
aggressive world heavy metal. Yes, she's a phenomenal, amazing woman.

Speaker 5 (04:32):
And I think, and I was never into them, but
I think I like Black Sabbath.

Speaker 1 (04:37):
What y, You're never too late to get into the Sabbath?

Speaker 5 (04:40):
So late to the party. Oh, never too late you
found appreciation of just how.

Speaker 1 (04:48):
They really literally they were. They are the godfathers of
heavy metal whole genre.

Speaker 5 (04:53):
Oh I just I'm loving it, I said to Chris.
Why am I just discovering this? I'm so late.

Speaker 1 (04:58):
Ossy up there right now. He'd be so happy. He's
still getting new fans always.

Speaker 5 (05:02):
And what a stunning looking man.

Speaker 1 (05:04):
So cool, funny and such a charmer as well. Pat
said to me in the News and Sport yesterday.

Speaker 6 (05:09):
She said to me, oh, look at the bone structure,
look at the facial structure of just heard anyone say
that about beautiful jaw and lips?

Speaker 1 (05:19):
Oh yeah, you had lips, and that's what Patsy likes.
You give Patsy a lipped man.

Speaker 5 (05:25):
Anyway, you can watch the Osborne's on Amazon Prime. We
watched Sunday This week. The first dropped eighty one percent
on Rotten Tomatoes. I'll tell you what, though, it's a
bit scary in places.

Speaker 1 (05:37):
What's this?

Speaker 5 (05:38):
This is Wednesday?

Speaker 6 (05:39):
Like?

Speaker 5 (05:39):
The second series is just right?

Speaker 1 (05:41):
All right, I've never heard of it Wednesday.

Speaker 7 (05:43):
It's massy.

Speaker 3 (05:44):
The girls.

Speaker 1 (05:45):
Yeah, you trying to sound like you're in the note
the girl? Right?

Speaker 3 (05:51):
Who's the girl?

Speaker 5 (05:52):
Your taker?

Speaker 1 (05:52):
Yes? Right?

Speaker 6 (05:54):
And Steve Steve to speak to the big Leboski.

Speaker 1 (06:00):
Yes he's in it.

Speaker 5 (06:01):
I love him.

Speaker 1 (06:02):
He's a great Actually he's a pretty scary.

Speaker 5 (06:04):
It's a bit scary, but I love it. And the
other thing this week I want to bring to the party.
I've got a new and for Taco nights. This will
change your life. These are little taco holders. They're like
two bucks from came up. Look at you looking?

Speaker 1 (06:17):
I was having a pair actually, because you're right, you
have to lay them down.

Speaker 5 (06:20):
I don't like that at the flat bottom. But they're
not always available.

Speaker 3 (06:24):
And they're too hard to get your mouth around.

Speaker 1 (06:26):
Sometimes you've got to just stand your jaw like a cop.

Speaker 5 (06:29):
They's are cute, like their little Mexican hats, different colors.

Speaker 3 (06:33):
No, the kids love them.

Speaker 1 (06:34):
I don't think you've heerd to those Mexican hats. I
think that might be a stereotype there of a national
stop a cane and then you.

Speaker 5 (06:42):
Just sit them in there and they.

Speaker 1 (06:43):
Don't spill over. Oh wow, it's like you're talking to
a Mexican there isn't it and quickly Rio, Okay, jump
in at Rio, what do you think you get? Double
thumbs up this week.

Speaker 4 (06:51):
I am loving Unfiltered with Hamish McLaughlin. So it is
a series and it sounds on paper not very good.

Speaker 1 (06:59):
Now I've been watching them and that he's done some
great interviews.

Speaker 3 (07:01):
They're awesome.

Speaker 4 (07:02):
It's a thirty minute sit down with AFL players who
historically are some of the most boring people in the world.

Speaker 1 (07:08):
Well that's a way to alienate an entire francship, but
they have been there. I mean, they can be quite
dry and I just wa.

Speaker 4 (07:15):
Watered down, you know that, like media train and they
just sort of, you know, go through cliche.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
Terrified to say anything too interesting exactly.

Speaker 4 (07:22):
But he does such a good job of getting these
incredible stories of it all holding because they've had such
interesting lives and he does such a good job.

Speaker 1 (07:29):
I get quite tear for watching it.

Speaker 3 (07:31):
Yeah, it's beautiful.

Speaker 1 (07:32):
Quite actually quite moving, isn't it when you hear them
open up a bit more? And Hamish is like painstaking.
He like he's like a safe cracker in their hearts,
isn't he? You know? And also tell you what a
hell of a lot of bangles, a lot of bangles. It's
like the leading of aerosmiths chatting to them. I do
want to j.

Speaker 8 (07:56):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (07:57):
He's sort of a bit too far back in the seat,
but that's how he It's less confrontational that way, because
you know, I might start actually just put my feet up,
you know, just just get to sit up a little bit.
I don't know. They're very good, though, very good interviews.

Speaker 4 (08:12):
Amazing well when you're at set, and maybe you can
pass that for you that my favorites with the Tom
Papley episode and the Toby Green ones was fascinating.

Speaker 1 (08:21):
Yeah, all right, we'll take a break. We'll come back
with Alex Cullen as he goes to more presenters on
the networks that he doesn't respect. And this is a
guy who obviously became very available for hire. It's amazing
that was all back from it.

Speaker 2 (08:38):
The Christian o'connal show podcast.

Speaker 1 (08:42):
First half hour Friday. We call it double thumbs up. Well,
tell you about the things we're into the moment. You
might find a feature, a TV show, or a taco
item to change your life. Alex Clin, what have you
loved this week? Mate?

Speaker 6 (08:54):
Oh look, I was on the herold SN website the
other day and I saw this little thing about Jimmy
Bartill pop up, and it was from a podcast he
did with Sarah Grinberg. It's called a Life of Greatness.
A couple of weeks ago, you go, he downloaded it.

Speaker 1 (09:08):
That was my next item I was going to talk about.
You probably didn't like it. I did in the interview,
you know I did.

Speaker 5 (09:15):
Really.

Speaker 6 (09:16):
Oh okay, anyway, Jimmy, buttell great podcast if they've got
you on it, of course. But she does this thing
where it's basically her guests shared their research, knowledge and
experience to help you cultivate an extraordinary existence.

Speaker 1 (09:27):
Now you're reading out the I just was sorry. I
wanted to hear in radio we don't eat Auto Cure
or Telly Pumpter, and she says, I lovetime experience. It's
a good time. Wherever you get your podcast.

Speaker 6 (09:38):
She does a great podcast, very good and so Jimmy
Budt tell what a story, My goodness, gracious talks about
his dad and he's drinking problems and when his parents
split when he was very young. It's some really really
heavy stuff. And so he talks a bit about his
relationship with his dad, a very difficult one, you know,
the premierships seven oh nine, twenty eleven, you know, delivering

(09:58):
that first premiership to DeLong and how many decades so
so long, the relationship with his kids, fatherhood, and just
also that breakup with he touches on as well, and
some really really good life lessons from him.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
Like I was just so inspired by him. I really
enjoyed the listen. It was lovely. I'll tell you what.
He's also, I think he's a very good pundit. Yeah,
so a lot of great players that don't make the crossover, right.
They are two very different skills, obviously, but I actually
think he's a very Him and James Hurd do a
great job together. Actually obviously two great players, but really
really smart. It's a very good watch actually, but yeah,
incredible life story for Jimmy Bartown, not just as a player.

Speaker 6 (10:34):
Definitely, and to come back from from that you know
that really really difficult childhood. And one of the things
he talked about was he always wants to have the
lights on at his house and he's home for his
family because his father's house was really dark, and it
just brought back those bad memories and got that so moving.

Speaker 1 (10:49):
How that incredible which stays with you. It leaves an imprens.

Speaker 6 (10:51):
Yeah, yeah, and he's and he just talks about how
he's he's really concentrating on being a really good father
for his kids and and it's just lovely, lovely stuff.
And I and I tip my cap to him for
that really honest chat.

Speaker 1 (11:03):
So it was lovely, all right. So the podcast is
a life of greatness that Alex was talking about with
said a grim book.

Speaker 2 (11:09):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 1 (11:13):
All is Well in the World when Collinwood have lost.
Sorry Collingwood fans, Sorry Collinwood fans. Some offense meant it's
all offense. It really made me laugh last night. I
know that makes me sound really narrow minded Judge more one,
I don't know. Yes, I'm a upsets D's fan. There's
no fine horse maybe for a couple of years coming

(11:34):
our way. But that really made me laugh. And there's
a there's a we work with a lovely woman called Tina, right,
but she has been a very lively, boastful and righty
so Pice fan all year, hasn't she. Oh, I don't
need to worry about losing. We're doing very well, thank you.
And then the slip off on the top four. Then
last night's high comedy goods. They're on top of the

(11:57):
ladder for eleven straight weeks.

Speaker 3 (12:01):
It sounds so good.

Speaker 1 (12:03):
The moy you said out that actually gets better. I
should have put it in double thumbs up. Musty comedy
of the last couple of days to me was the
Pies game yesterday. Just just checking with our resident Pies fan, Tina,
how are you doing today?

Speaker 9 (12:14):
Look, I've been better mentally not great.

Speaker 1 (12:17):
Well, listen, surrender you know your feelings to everybody else
is not a Pie fan who will be cheered up today,
even if their teams are probably going to lose. These
probably gonna get smashed by the Doggies at the weekend.
But the back of my mind, I remember that you're
slipping away.

Speaker 9 (12:32):
I'm selfish, said I want to be here a winner,
and said I don't care about it.

Speaker 1 (12:36):
We all want to be winners, but it can't. You
need a bit of suck this season. There's been too
much with the other side, like the D's. You need
to have a bit of it. Tina.

Speaker 3 (12:44):
No, we don't.

Speaker 1 (12:45):
Yes, you enjoy the suck. It's good, Tina. All right.
So the other day I was talking about how I
was trying to find some alternative ear pods to the
Apple ones. I found my Apple ons by the way
they came back. They were in the jacket pocket Classic Lucky.

(13:05):
It didn't go in the wash. Yes, yes, are they
waterprew no extent.

Speaker 3 (13:10):
I think they're a little bit water Are there rain proof?

Speaker 1 (13:13):
I think what happened if you put your iPhone in
a washing machine like a twenty minute wash.

Speaker 3 (13:16):
I think you're less worried about the water. I think
you're worried about them banging around.

Speaker 1 (13:20):
What if I put in the pillowcase my work? All right?
I try over the weekend. I brought back to your Monday.
All right. So you know when you go into Google
and and it kicks up very quickly within one word,
two words, you haven't even finished that second word, and
auto complete kicks in family fortunes. What's on the board
I just all I wanted to google what what ear
pods are cheaper than Apple one, so got as far

(13:42):
as what ear, and auto complete came up with is gay.
And this was a couple of days in the show.
I didn't know there was a gay ear. Even Rio
got confused about which one is out of some of
our listeners for five minutes until we clarified it wasn't
that ere. By the way, now people are wondering which
ear is it? Left?

Speaker 3 (13:59):
No, right here is the gay ear. Left ear is
apparently are you sure?

Speaker 1 (14:03):
Yes?

Speaker 3 (14:04):
Right here, you're right is the gay ear.

Speaker 1 (14:07):
So if I'm the listener right now I'm driving to work,
are you a gay listener? I'm a gay listener, and
I have my ear pissed, but only one of them.
I just want to check myself in the mirror. When's
convenient and safe, I would put my right right hand
up to my right ear and go, I'm gay and
proud and loud exactly exactly. They could do that as
maybe an awareness campaign. I'm happy to be the voice

(14:29):
overdoy for so anyway we turn this into a game.
I've got some words here that I've typed into Google.
You guys, alex Rio and pats A. You're going to
take each other on what do you think are the
top five? You know the top five when you go autocomplete?
So first of all, I typed in, why do Australians say,

Because we are there?

Speaker 1 (16:11):
Why do women have long hair? Which SICKO is actually
googling that. Lock that person up if that's on their search.
Why do women have long hair as well? Just choice?
Isn't it all?

Speaker 2 (18:48):
The Christian O'Connell show.

Speaker 1 (18:50):
Podcast, Christian Bleach can you tell me the name of
the song and the female singer of the song you
played at eight past ten Tuesday night. Oh, you can
have to give me some time to consult my logs.
I mean, I don't do the night shift, but lah,
I'll find out. I'll get back to you. It's Friday.
That's such a specific question, like someone's gone, was that

(19:13):
on Tuesday? The fact that I was eight past ten
not ten past ten? Eight past ten? Do they make
a note in their phone to ask me? And then
they've seen their to do list and things haven't ticked
off like we all do on a Friday. On a Friday,
you look back at like you to do this? You
start on a Monday or maybe on a Sunday night.
I do, You've done none of it. I've realized being

(19:36):
an adult is constantly saying next week things should come
down a bit. I certainly realized I was saying that
on the phone to someone. I went, sorry, can I
just say that's bs? Because I just realized I've been
saying that every day since I was about twenty five.
Oh my god, that's what being an adult is to

(19:57):
next week should come down a bit, right? Suddenly? Every week?
Is it is? That? Isn't it? Every week? And next
week should come down a bit for me. And it's
like that until finally you die, and then that's the
only time you can say next week will come down
for me because I won't exist. It sounds nice just
for the rest, just not been uninterrupted for a bit.

(20:21):
There a big nap, one big spiritual afternoon nap. Christian
talking about double thumbs up this morning. Double thumbs up
to the audiobook I just finished The Resilience Project. That
is a great book. An audio buying Hugh Van Cinnenberg
check out. There are awesome podcasts that he does, work
with his brother and Ryan Shelton as well The Imperfect Christian.

(20:44):
My partner put his AirPods in the washing machine in
a jacket pocket. I found them when I emptied the load.
We were very concerned that what they were. This has
not been a problem in the last three weeks. They
are fine. No rice needed. Isn't that a nightmare? One
tiny tissue explodes in the wash? The damage? How does
it get on everything? And it's so fine? You can't

(21:06):
just brush it off? Can you?

Speaker 3 (21:07):
You need that?

Speaker 1 (21:08):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (21:08):
Roller?

Speaker 1 (21:09):
The roller? Yeah? Christian, congratulations, you're now officially on Australian.
When you take joy from Collinwood losing. Yes, it showed
me on the citizenship test. Actually Collinwood have lost. How
do you feel a'll be Christian? Dogs are allowed on
public trunks, bort but they have to be muzzled. Now
Rio is searching for something this weekend.

Speaker 4 (21:32):
Yes, important question for the culture. Where the hell is
there a pub in Melbourne with a dart board?

Speaker 1 (21:39):
Because I feel like they're died now. Years ago, when
I was a kid grown up in England, every single
pub had a dart board, not just that it was
so popular dance and in studies they had league leagues.
My dad was in a dance league. He would go
off every Tuesday night with his own darts with his
mates and they would play darts. It's very They would
take on other pubs in the area. That was just

(22:01):
like social thing out. They loved it.

Speaker 3 (22:02):
Because it's the perfect drinking activity.

Speaker 4 (22:04):
Like when we were eighteen, I remember there were still
heaps of pumps with dart board.

Speaker 3 (22:08):
You go behind the ask the bartender to go get
the darts.

Speaker 1 (22:11):
They was in a pint glass. Yes, it's the law.
That's where they're stored around the world. You don't see
so many. What is it they're more gastro pubs now
where they're more like a restaurant than a proper buve pub.

Speaker 3 (22:23):
And there is usually pubs with a carpeted.

Speaker 1 (22:25):
Floor of Jicky Carpenter's floor as well. Yeah, you're right,
and they do. You know how old the game of
dance is. It was formally invented. I remember being a
pub quiz and finding us out in to my head,
I think it's eighteen ninety six from by Carpenter in
England called Brian. Formalized darts go back to like medieval
ages when soldiers would shorten arrows to practice their aim

(22:48):
and throw them into tree tree trunks. And then there's
Carpenter in the eighteen hundreds formalize the numbers around the board.
It's a great game, the best thing to do. So
for a while I had a dark board in my
radio studio. I thought, you know what, you know these
ad breaks that there's so long. I played dance with
the producers and I remember we got rid of it
after about three shows because the boss realized that I

(23:10):
was missing the end of a lot of songs. Just
sudden it was my go at darts. You know, you
have to line up the shop, Bloody Helle, the songs
don't know and you certainly hear a lot of It's
Christian Connors Show, Good Morning Now Britain.

Speaker 6 (23:22):
And there was always the story where oh Dave, Yeah,
he was walking one day in the pub and all
of a sudden he copped the dart one Dave and
that's why they took the dug away because someone caught
one in the neck.

Speaker 1 (23:33):
Do you think maybe it is may think it's a
health and safety thing?

Speaker 4 (23:36):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (23:37):
Is it the over regulated ohist? I hope you live
in now? Or are they just like do the bloody
gen Z's not love a dart board?

Speaker 1 (23:44):
Who doesn't love darts? That's good for your masks as well? Yes,
actually really complicated. I bet these days people just do
it on their iPhones. Yeah yeah, it comes become rubbish
at thinking. All right, So if anyone knows of a
pub in Melbourne that still has a dart board, please
give us a call. Thirteen fifty five twenty two, The.

twenty thirty two. You can have a couple of like
demonstration events. Can't be like four or five darts if

(25:33):
they've got like rifle and pistol shooting, why can't dance
be an Olympic sport? I hand coordination as it's fine
motor skill.

Speaker 3 (25:41):

on board.

they saw they didn't have a breakdown, an absolute meltdown.
They still talk about it now. They were like six

obviously tap and go and stuff like that. You're like,
oh god, no, how to get someone out? The city
player was broken as well. To get someone out he
had to take up and charge me with three hundred bucks.

(49:11):
So like canceling the card and all that call someone

great story about what happened when his dad was in charge.
Long story short. They were asked to leave. That's a
topic for next week. You were asked to leave It's
a really sad story. Dad had done nothing wrong, but
they were asked to leave. We get time he was
saving for Monday. But I'm looking for stories from Monday

(50:25):
about being asked to leave. I think most of us
have got a story about being asked to leave. I've
been asked to leave at least five pubs, no in
the last ten years. But in my twenties. Anyhow, we
saved them for actually an every day those my wife
sold you. But they don't need to They don't need
to know that part in the past. All right, we

in there? And what happened when dad was in charge?
You got a thousand dollars up for grabs by nine

welcome to the show.

Speaker 12 (51:02):
Good morning, Thank you all. I was nannying for a family.
I took my young charge to Melbourne UNI to collect
a textbook. She decided to pop her head between.

Speaker 9 (51:14):
Two bars in a bike rack.

Speaker 12 (51:17):
Of course she could not get her head out.

Speaker 1 (51:19):
No heads don't go in there then bicycle wheels, do
I mean?

Speaker 12 (51:24):
We kind of gathered a crowd, and it was only
with the threat of will call the fire brigade to
get your head chopped out her had suddenly slipped out
of the bike rack.

Speaker 1 (51:36):
Because I think all they do is because someone got
their head stuck in a rack once before, and the
fire brigade have a giant industrial grease them up and
pop them out. No way, they don't. They get caught
a lot of that stuck in there, that kid or

(51:56):
that curious adult, and they just loop them up and
pop them out. They do. They haven't been to grease.

Speaker 3 (52:03):
If they're a firefighter listening.

Speaker 1 (52:07):
They know back of that trick. It's not it's not
just hoses and ladders.

Speaker 6 (52:11):
I was considering that when Max got his head stuck
in a steal picnic table out the front of the
local shop.

Speaker 1 (52:17):
Yeah, same thing.

Speaker 6 (52:18):
I thought, Hang on, this is gonna need some fire
engine fire people special to engine head grease.

Speaker 1 (52:24):
They called yeh yeah, yeah, yeah, that spunny his head
another way and I bentually got him out. O tiny

story for us? Mate?

Speaker 7 (55:51):
I've actually got two things that were stuck. The main
one is when I was a kid, probably less than
ten years old. I was at school and you remember
how great lead pencils used to have an eraser on
the end of them. Yes, I was playing with it
in my ear and the eraser snapped off.

Speaker 3 (56:11):
Inside of my head.

Speaker 1 (56:13):
It's the perfect size, and I.

Speaker 7 (56:17):
Was very I was very sheepish. I knew it was
in there, but I didn't want to tell my mom
because I'd get in trouble. Eventually, when I did and
I went home, I did get in trouble. A cup
of snack or two, and then she tried to take
it out with tweezers because fiddling around in the ear
is really screamish.

Speaker 1 (56:37):
She could have pushed it further down in there.

Speaker 7 (56:40):
Yeah, so I had to go to hospital. So I
was admitted to the hospital. They had to put me
to sleep, and they had to they had to take
it out because yeah, I just I just couldn't stand
still if they were trying to take it out. And
in the end they said it was it was very
close to my ear drum. So I was quite lucky.

Speaker 1 (56:57):
Wow.

Speaker 7 (56:58):
But I had forgotten that story. And the only reason
I remember that last month I was in hospital because
I was I was filling up a skipping at my
mom's house and I was breaking up some material and
I've got a piece of plastic in my eye. I
ended up in that iron Yeah, hospital again.
