Hey, this is the Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 4 (00:27):
It's a chemist warehouse and save more money every year
on your regular medication with discount of prescriptions in every
store every day.
Speaker 2 (00:36):
It's the Christian O'Connell's Show on Gold. Show eight of
our new national show. Good Morning Melbourne, Good Morning Sydney,
Good Morning Brisbane, Good Morning Adelaide, Good Morning Perth. I mean,
I don't know if there's anyone listening right now in Perth,
but anyway, today the wheels have come off. It's chaos
on this show today. I don't even know what's happened.
(00:58):
One of the team members, Lackey, who is a he's
like a grown up.
Speaker 1 (01:02):
On this team. Now.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
I say that to emphasize it because it's rare. No, Now,
you do mean he's thrown ups. I depend on that, dude.
He's asleep right now, get hold of him. Pacts came
into the whereas the lights were off. He's always locked in. Yeah,
he's he's here, he's and apparently his phone's dead.
Speaker 5 (01:23):
Yeah, we tried calling him, goes straight to voicemail. We
saw on his instagram he was active at eleven pm.
Speaker 6 (01:29):
That was the last time he was What do.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
You mean you can tell on his instagram if he's active.
Speaker 5 (01:33):
You can go into when you go into a messages,
you can see when they were last online.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
So you don't know what he was doing.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Physically, We won't watch, so you're you're not peering on
him his instagram.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
He can.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
But trouble is, though, I mean, I've never ever in
twenty eight years, mister Starve a radio show.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
No ever at breakfast show.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
It's odd because normally, like even when I've woken up
and I forgot to set the alarm, sometimes you more
or less you wake up around that time.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
Anyway, Yeah, horrible jolt, Yeah, worse a half an hour way.
But now it's like like he's really sleeping in.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
He's catching some seats second week at the National.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Show and then young Josh.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Today, I'm sending up to the Gold Coast on a
flight at nine forty five am. Now the timing of
nine forty five am is key to what I'm about
to say. So the flight is at nine forty five
am domestic flight, doesn't he to get them.
Speaker 1 (02:31):
To what call to nine? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (02:33):

Cabaner who goes straight through security.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
Yeah, he's taken up to jazz and a Gold Coast
And I'll tell you why in the next half. And
now why he's doing that, Kaitlyn, Have I heard you've
just given him the show off?
Speaker 7 (02:53):
Yes, I have, but I have a very good reason.
It is because if he is flying to the Gold Coast,
he has to do something with our listener, and then
he's got to fly back home within that day. That's
a very long day for him. If I'm asking him
to get you're running a.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
Trade union here.
Speaker 8 (03:11):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
Do you know how you get to have a twenty
eight year career in radio? You have to do it.
Sometimes you might have to do almost a nine hour day.
I once have done for this day.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
He sat on his ass bringing peanuts and he snacks
on a flight in the air.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
He's not walking up there.
Speaker 7 (03:28):
I just have to make sure.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
Your generation weak sauce.
Speaker 9 (03:32):
And then by the.
Speaker 10 (03:33):
Time he gets home tonight, which will.
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Probably beak to school five.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
K's unbroken Glass and eat wolves. That was just an
average Monday. She takes his itinity today and poos it out.
Speaker 10 (03:48):
And then tomorrow he's gonna have to get up earlier.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
Oh my god, it's so much being a grown up,
isn't it? And I've got to get up again tomorrow
and go back to this job that's three hours long.
Speaker 7 (03:59):
He also was up very late last night because he's
flight got canceled.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
So what's he doing crying himself to sleep in that
big Josh pillow?
Speaker 7 (04:07):
No, he had to do a bit of a last
night crimea river. I'm making sure that he's well rested
so that.
Speaker 1 (04:17):
He can carry it really well rested. What about my
stress levels? Right now?
Speaker 2 (04:20):
I'm going to carry a three hour national radio show
with half a team. One of them is catching up
on Z's. The other ones also catching up on Z's.
Any in the rest of you a little bit tied
because you worked almost like a ten hour week this week.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
Weeks of the Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 2 (04:37):
Christian Josh and your show needs to harden up. I
started I start work at two am. This guy starts
work part here starts work at two am.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
He's on the road, doesn't get back till six pm.
That's a day, that's tough.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Perhaps you've never missed the start of a news bulletin,
oh one.
Speaker 10 (04:59):
Back in my regional radio days, it was horrific.
Speaker 11 (05:01):
I was still living at home and I work at
ty Frost was on here, who's on a rival station?
Speaker 10 (05:08):
We were very very young, and I woke.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Up and I did rivals that's what they got the
idea form back then.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
And I woke up anchor Ladies.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Rivals on two Billy five and they had three and
a half listeners.
Speaker 11 (05:24):
I woke up and I remember thinking that was the
most fulfilling sleep.
Speaker 10 (05:29):
I had the best sleep.
Speaker 11 (05:31):
But then all of a sudden, my heart stopped because
it was light, the sun was up, and the birds
were singing.
Speaker 1 (05:38):
And you get the horrible jolt patch.
Speaker 6 (05:40):
Oh my god, it's daytime.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
The edge.
Speaker 11 (05:46):
I looked at the clock, days before my bill phone
looked at the clock. My first bulletin was at seven am.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
Back then.
Speaker 2 (05:51):
It was the day you announcing the moon landing seven
huge news day.
Speaker 11 (05:57):
Had to jold out of bed, went to the you
know rope. I was going to say rotisserie phone, but.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
The chicken was that. That's years ago. It was we
used to have chicken chickens to Chucks phones.
Speaker 10 (06:09):
I now slept in.
Speaker 11 (06:10):
I'm on my way, would you believe Because it was
just a small country town not far from the station.
I got there in time for the seven o'clock news.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
You had a nation on tent.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Who was going to give the farming news that day,
about the Barley news.
Speaker 10 (06:28):
The local market report with the US and the heapers.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
I had to know.
Speaker 10 (06:33):
Oh, it's the worst feeling though.
Speaker 11 (06:35):
Your heart just stops, doesn't even skip a beat, it
just stops beating.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
So the reason why Josh was sending him to the
Gold Coast today is firing up there with one of
our Christian O'Connor show cabanners. And we were giving these
away last week and they went down like hot potatoes.
With the heat waves that was going on over the
last weekend right across Australia. People really wanted these, and
so I was thinking, of the weekend, there's anything we
(07:01):
can do with the hot Society, and we've ever given
away in the history of the show, these Christian O'Connell
Beach cabanners, and so this is what Josh is flying
to meet a listener called Jazz on the Gold Coast,
she's taking one of these cabaners, and then we're trying
to find out we're testing towards the end of the
second week, just how this is working. This national breakfast
(07:22):
show never been done before, so jazz listened to us.
Up on the Gold Coast, she's going to receive a cabaner.
Then there's a listener at the moment, Rowena, who is
going to be at the Gold Coast tomorrow. She's then
going to drive the cabana back to Sydney where she
needs to go. And then next week we're going to
try and see can we get through the kindness of
(07:43):
the people who listened to the show. It transported this
cabana from Sydney to Melbourne, to Melbourne to Adelaide and
then Adelaide right across another bore to both.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
That's the big leg.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
It's one giant trustful, have we got the anthem?
Speaker 12 (07:58):
And now we'll move five thousand days two past this
shape from door to door and move this combine crust
states and even gruss.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Th well down.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
And also sensible and lowering your tone. No one can
sing a sign, not even I think some opera singers
can go up aside those two boys, those Scottish lads.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
It's beyond high.
Speaker 2 (08:29):
Even the late great Freddie Mercury, the Proclaimers are an
octave above him.
Speaker 1 (08:35):
So he's taken.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
I've just realized, right, So he's he's taking this on
the plane as hand luggage.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
I've just seen the first time the size of this thing.
It's huge. There's not an over locker.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
That's going in. They come hold out for the video
right now. We put this on Instagram and Facebook. Commit
it's massive. What's about four foot?
Speaker 6 (08:51):
Yeah, we measured it. It's one meter twenty and.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Surely there's a limit for what you can there's no
way when you go on like jets on the flights.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
They've got that little box. She meant it. Yes, that's
not going in it.
Speaker 5 (09:02):
I would say to at least double the size of
a typical carry on bag.
Speaker 6 (09:05):
The length.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
Going to crack.
Speaker 5 (09:09):
He's got three of them, and because the company wouldn't
fork out to put it to check it in, he's
got it.
Speaker 6 (09:14):
There's absolutely no way that these are getting on the plane.
Speaker 1 (09:17):
They're huge.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
They're going to crack it now, you know, and I
get it. I feel so sorry. The worst part of
a flight it's the overhead locker, isn't it. Yeah, because
no one wants to pay the extra to stow it.
We can't bring on three cabanas.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
What's that going to go? They have them shove it
with the pilot. Can you maybe see forward a bit mate.
Speaker 11 (09:36):
Knocking him on the head.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
This is a chick PROTUSI kadin, Can he really take
that on? Carry on?
Speaker 3 (09:42):
Yes?
Speaker 7 (09:42):
I took it from Sydney to the Gold Coast. Yes,
But what I did do is I took it out
of the box. So I've suggested to Josh take it now.
Speaker 1 (09:50):
Three of them? You know what is going to be
giving one to a pilot to keep him sweet.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
I told you it was.
Speaker 7 (09:58):
Hard to take on like they're long, So I was
like hitting people as.
Speaker 9 (10:01):
I went down the arm.
Speaker 10 (10:02):
But they were fine with it because I was heading
to the Goldie.
Speaker 2 (10:04):
Now this is the also that somebody but at the moment,
like a lot of companies, this company is on a
efficiency drive, so they're looking.
Speaker 1 (10:13):
At every buck that's way soon going to hang on minute?
Do you need that?
Speaker 2 (10:16):
And when I say at the moment, sorry, I meant
eternally perpetually on an efficiency drive, so much so that
Josh had to text the chief executive of this company
to see if he could have a three hundred and
ten do a flight.
Speaker 1 (10:31):
To the Gold Coast. I have some flight.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
And so Josh is getting to the airport at what time,
which is why he's not on the show this morning,
despite the fact that the flight doesn't leave until nine
forty five am.
Speaker 7 (10:45):
He has texted me just now and said he'll be
arriving at seven point thirty to capture some content half blessing.
He might need to ask a few for people to
take it on for him because he's got so many buttles.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Oh sure, have you packed your own bags? I know
there's a strange.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
Little fellow there who asked me to carry.
Speaker 1 (11:04):
This on ball. There's going to be someone waiting for me.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
But the Gold Coast they've never heard that one before.
Have you checked inside of it?
Speaker 8 (11:15):
No?
Speaker 1 (11:16):
What's in there? Apparently cabaner, But I have asked.
Speaker 7 (11:19):
Him to take a couple of photos videos.
Speaker 2 (11:22):
See that go viral today. Was looking for white hot
content about departure gates. That's where you find your influences
post all right, I thought of a thing he can
do there you're at if you're at the airport this morning, right,
and he's got an our and a half of finding content.
Let's help him find the content. He's to go up
(11:44):
to people and ask where are they going and what
are they up to? Okay it those are two fair questions,
aren't they.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
That's just I mean, I wouldn't answer it.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
Someone came up to me with a load of cabanas
on their back, three campanas like Bandola's, you know, like
some rebel, and ask me what.
Speaker 1 (12:01):
Am I up to and where am I going? I go?
None of your business.
Speaker 6 (12:04):
Don't talk to me.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
But that's if Josh can do that.
Speaker 3 (12:08):
The Christian O'Connell Show Podcast.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
Welcome to the Christian O'Connell Show. Alex. You're doing great work.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
By the way, with all the pronunciations of the tennis players.
I listened to the tennis bit of the sports news
there and that was that was turned out of ten mate.
Speaker 1 (12:23):
Thank you very much. So many, so many big words.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
Yous have practiced so many names from all over the world,
and faultlessly and no stumbling.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
Elena Rebukina, where do you? Where do you go to
know if it's right? You know?
Speaker 2 (12:35):
Sometimes we can go on to Google and so how
do you pronounce something, is that?
Speaker 1 (12:39):
Where do you go? Is there a special Jo's little place?
Speaker 13 (12:43):
The AO has it some of the website, which is
really handy, but you can just type in pronunciation in
their name and you get this French guy who spells
it out for you.
Speaker 1 (12:50):
He's got this beautiful voice. Actually this is Eleanor.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
Because the two ladies playing today were too. There was
a rebelenko Ato and so many oh's.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
I didn't know. Now are they already called that?
Speaker 2 (13:05):
Or if you don't what Ozzie's doing, they just chuck
and o at the end, or they got legit and
actually legit at the end.
Speaker 13 (13:10):
Well they do a really hard one is fiontic. Yes,
that's a tough one.
Speaker 1 (13:17):
And as the fans call them, that's a good player too,
all right. So the phonetic alphabet.
Speaker 2 (13:26):
Sometimes you're on a phone call and someone will want
to know like M four and you go, oh god,
what is the end? And for mother mother Theresa? Is
that Michael other Terresa, other Theresa, mother Mary come to
me speaking words to wisdom. Yes, And so you only
know a couple of them. Sometimes you just make one
up and then they are going, that's not what that
(13:47):
is in the phonetic alphabet. What about making our own
Australian version of the phonetic alphabet? I think that'll be
a lot more fun today, So call in what have
you got for a letter? Thirteen fifty five twenty two.
As an observer over the last eight years of you
Australians s for me has to be shitby right.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
Nowhere else in the.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
World, my friends, does that phrasing exist? And sheby right?
And sometimes you it's it's it's totally depending on the context.
Sometimes you feel reassured, and then at times you look
at the person who's saying it to you and.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
You go, we will not be okay.
Speaker 6 (14:24):
She will not be right.
Speaker 2 (14:25):
We won't when PROTESSI Kaidan often says it, and this
show is not going.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
To be okay. Why are you giving team members days off?
Speaker 2 (14:33):
Witty niddy so s four shibby rights rio, What have
you got for our Australian version of the phonetic alphabet?
Speaker 5 (14:40):
I'm going right down the bottom to why a classic
Ossie saying yeah, Na.
Speaker 1 (14:46):
Those two are straight to Mount Rushmore.
Speaker 6 (14:49):
Yeah, is it nice?
Speaker 1 (14:54):
And it kind of makes sense. I'm not confused anymore.
Speaker 6 (14:58):
Yeah, you get it now?
Speaker 1 (14:59):
You know, you know, it's quite psycho oxymoron, but it's not.
It's work. It was what are we going to do
for ze? By the way, zinger box?
Speaker 2 (15:08):
Yeah, that's what I've got. Pencil that in at the moment. Yeah, Alex,
what's it for you? I don't know where this name
came from, but I just love it. It so as
drowning a drunk. Yeah, it's a radio friendly term of
abuse as well, is it.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
Yeah, it's not a really bad one, but it is
a pretty bad one.
Speaker 6 (15:27):
There are some good Aussie terms of abuse.
Speaker 1 (15:29):
I say flog flog. It's a great one.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
I've never heard that before, and the context was at
my first ever footy game.
Speaker 6 (15:39):
Yeah, you hear it a lot and I'm.
Speaker 1 (15:41):
Like, what's the flog? Bloody?
Speaker 2 (15:45):
That guy I reckon to be called a flog is
worse than a drom.
Speaker 8 (15:49):
Go.
Speaker 2 (15:49):
Yes, why do tomorrow's show? We do the ladder of abuse,
but let's not go for the big c.
Speaker 6 (15:56):
Let's not.
Speaker 1 (15:58):
That's what I said that we all know.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
We all know where were we the phonetic alphabet of
Australia PASSI.

Planet Bogan. Maybe there's a weekly future called Planet Bogan.
Speaker 2 (18:26):
See for Champ. It's a lot of the terms abuse
here are ironic, aren't they.
Speaker 6 (18:34):
Champ is not champed, big fella.

Yes, yes, it's all in the time italics.
Speaker 1 (18:45):
Also old mate, I love mate, old mate.
Speaker 2 (18:48):
It's one frazy favorite Australian phrases is old mate, old
mate over there struggling with that cabana on the plane.
Speaker 1 (18:58):
Even if it's someone young. You can be an old mate.
Speaker 5 (19:01):
Yea over there, or they could be your mate even worse,
oh your mate over there? Yeah yeah yeah, uh g
goombag totally definitely does that exist anywhere in the world.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
F flaming gala f a.
Speaker 1 (19:21):
PHARMSI well, if you've got Farsi, you're gonna have barn zi.
You can't have one with another. And then gronk. What's
a gronk? Now?
Speaker 5 (19:31):
Gronk is an interesting one because I started saying that
down in Melbourne when I moved here and.
Speaker 6 (19:35):
People didn't know what it was.
Speaker 5 (19:36):
I think it might be more of a Sydney term
of abuse, slightly different to a flog. A flog is
more serious. A flog maybe someone does a cheap shot
in footy. A gronk would be a bit more passive,
say someone at a concert with their shirt off.
Speaker 6 (19:50):
You get what a gronk? So it's a bit it's
like one step down from a f.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
So more at all, yeah, tool, more of a tosser, right, Okay,
that's a gronk.
Speaker 6 (20:00):
That's a gronk.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
I think with some of these they probably aren't going
to be sort of local versions as well. Aren't there
that's a Jason listened to the show in New South Wales. Actually,
now we thank you very much. Let's go to who
we got here? Jenny, Welcome to show. Morning, Jenny.

actually produces a lot less in there. Hey, Jenny, welcome

Speaker 14 (20:34):
Yes, it's nearly every sentence.

The Christian O'Connell Show Podcast.
Speaker 2 (28:30):
Shout out to all the mums and dad who are
hanging out running on vapors until the kids finally begin
the new school year of the next couple of days
and next week.
Speaker 1 (28:39):
Patsy, how's it going in your household?
Speaker 11 (28:42):
Well, something struck me for six yesterday. So we have
just the one child, a daughter who is coming up fifteen.
She's going into year nine. Still three or four years
to go yet.
Speaker 2 (28:53):
But these are ye are the years. No, it really is.
It gets real now. It's so intense for them. But
it's like in Australia the education system, it's sort of
at like a one speed and then suddenly from year
nine upwards and ten eleven twelve, it's like it goes
so much more intense.
Speaker 1 (29:12):
It's really hard for them.
Speaker 11 (29:14):
Yeah, And I think the thing for Chris and I,
my husband and I is if your listeners, Melbourne listeners,
you'll probably know our story, but the rest of the
country wouldn't. In that we had a lot of trouble
getting Audery. She was five years in the making and
lots of you know, miscarriages and stuff. So she every
child is special, but for us, we knew we were
only going to have this one shot. So it's kind
(29:35):
of like intensifies all those little things.
Speaker 10 (29:38):
And yesterday it was such.
Speaker 2 (29:39):
As okay to be honest and say, you're a tiger mum.
We have two daughters. My wife is a tiger mum,
and I wish I had a mum that was as
tigers as that.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
Think you care so much.
Speaker 10 (29:51):
Oh look, she's just she's our oxygen.
Speaker 11 (29:53):
But yesterday we had Okay, that's maybe an unawfy way
to see it.
Speaker 10 (29:56):
It's not I endore it.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
That's are lots of pott of the kid.
Speaker 2 (29:59):
Isn't it If you leave our suffocate exactly, you're the
waving at the airlock, or as other people call it,
the front door.
Speaker 11 (30:07):
We had to get new school s is yesterday and
in our suburb we go to the same shoe shop.
Speaker 1 (30:11):
We know you where you go to the Ancho section
of came Up.
Speaker 10 (30:15):
We go to our local shoees.
Speaker 11 (30:16):
Actually, they're a beautiful family business and we've been taking
her there since she could walk, since she was a toddler.
Speaker 10 (30:22):
So they know it's it's that's so.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
Cool, so lovely, and tell me there's Patsy. They're still
using that metallic.
Speaker 6 (30:27):
Thing, yes, the old slide.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
I also get so nervous as they're young and using
that thing.
Speaker 10 (30:32):
You think, oh god, I got to cut my foot
off when you were little.
Speaker 6 (30:34):
At what are they doing with that?
Speaker 11 (30:36):
Anyway, we walked in, they said, oh, hi, Audrey. Anyway,
the man that owns the shop just said something that
really took me for six inches. I wasn't prepared for
it. It was just an innocent comment. And he goes, oh,
what year this year? And she goes year nine and
he said, well, you know, this will be your last
pair of school shoes.
Speaker 1 (30:54):
Unless you've had a procedure done where you're not letting
her feet.
Speaker 2 (30:57):
Grow anymore, be at least another two or three pairs.
Speaker 1 (31:01):
No, Care's feet have only stopped growing in year night.
Speaker 10 (31:04):
Well, the last pair have lasted like four or five years.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
Because you made it.
Speaker 2 (31:08):
You've probably got toes peeking out the top of Them's.
Speaker 6 (31:11):
Not that bad.
Speaker 1 (31:12):
She will grow, she will.
Speaker 11 (31:15):
Girls don't boys do.
Speaker 1 (31:18):
Getting this information from girls. Don't stop growing.
Speaker 2 (31:23):
The two daughters they did not. There were no more
shoes from year nine. There's loads more.
Speaker 11 (31:27):
She's already like a size eight going into ladies.
Speaker 5 (31:30):
Not even if they fit, the soul would wear down
to we.
Speaker 2 (31:36):
Also not just that you have to whenever you buy
the school shoes. It wasn't how quickly they grow out
of them. It's the scuff factor. Order myself. Pick your fee,
especially about being an empty nesss. I don't need to
say that to anymore. But sometimes I see kids dragging
their feet games. Dad and mom and dad are going
to see that.
Speaker 1 (31:55):
Pick your feet up, I'll mate.
Speaker 11 (31:58):
But it's a little bit, and you'll you'll probably condemn
me for this, but it's almost like when you're grieving
for someone right and someone will say something.
Speaker 1 (32:10):
Trust me, I'll be honest. These are the shittiest years.
Speaker 11 (32:14):
I just like fearing you twelve and then flying the coop,
and yesterday it was like another nail oh no.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
Another her feet is something growing.
Speaker 11 (32:26):
It's like last, I'm ready for the last you've got.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
Just all you have is now. Just enjoy the ride now.
And it's not like it ends when they leave.
Speaker 1 (32:36):
No, trust me.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
The computer game of being a parent just because actually
I find more complicated, more complex, just as expensive.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
Probably never ends.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
So it's not like it ever ends, and nor should it.
It's just a different And also, you got all this year,
You've got another couple more.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
Years, and I don't wish it.
Speaker 11 (32:54):
I love packing your lunches, and I think mostly because
I've never been there in the morning for it, because
I've always been at work, best.
Speaker 2 (33:01):
Part of this job, worst time of the day. Those
kids are horrendous. I've done it many ten times well
at the school run because I've done breakfast ready for
so long and I literally would just get home after
just doing the drop off.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
And be like, I don't know how she does it.
It's going to take me six hours to go back
and get them. How how can people live like this? Yeah?
Speaker 10 (33:22):
Yeah, I know.
Speaker 11 (33:23):
My husband does an amazing job and I'll probably get
the better end of it.
Speaker 2 (33:26):
It's like being in the Special Forces in terms of
just the insurgency.
Speaker 1 (33:30):
You have to deal with. Why are we getting in
the car so early? Don't drop his hair? That's see
you an orc and the elephant. Dad. I know he.
Speaker 11 (33:43):
Cops it every morning. He cops it every morning. He
does a great job. So but I'm not ready for
the last.
Speaker 2 (33:48):
How do you think he would have got on if
you've been doing the school and all the years. How
do you think he can speak?
Speaker 10 (33:53):
Shocking? Two women? No, absolutely shocking.
Speaker 2 (33:56):
Honestly, I wish they've been a flannel in my I'm
outnumbered in my house right. My life's the better for it, Okay,
But honestly, if there was a flying of all those
three strong sisters, you got to my two daughters and
my wife as well. Sometimes it scares me that energy.
I just go and hide in my own house. Suddenly
the argument was stopped and I just hed someone going,
(34:16):
where is that?
Speaker 1 (34:17):
I got to come out from under this bed right now.
Speaker 3 (34:21):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 2 (34:24):
Christian, I'm going through that war that you've been living
through for all your parental life. My wife and three
year old daughter already having that mum and daughter war.
Do you know I was talking to my nineteen year
old daughter Lois yesterday and she was sometimes they say
stuff that's so wise, So she goes, do you know what,
I think you're a better person because you've had daughters.
Speaker 1 (34:47):
I am.
Speaker 2 (34:47):
I'm not sure if you mean that as a burn
or that I was a monster before you guys came along.
Speaker 1 (34:53):
But yeah, thanks for saying that, she goes, I think
it humbles you. I said, yeah, go for that. It's humble.
Maybe too come constantly.
Speaker 2 (35:01):
If you mean on my knees sometimes begging for mercy,
then yes, let's call that humbly. I think it might
actually start a dad sort of survivors group this year
called girl Dads.
Speaker 10 (35:15):
My husband would.
Speaker 2 (35:19):
Struggling us mainly just drinking beer and maybe at the
end of men talking about it and the next day
going I can't remember what he said, actually we had
too many beers. I might seriously start doing that. If
anyone is interested in joining my group for fellow girl dads.
It's the greatest, greatest joy in my life. And I
say someone it, I've been very lucky in my life.
(35:40):
Is still a big adventure, but there's no great joy
for me there being a girl dad. And it's been
a dad anyway. It's the best thing in the world.
All right, So small thing, big joy, small.
Speaker 1 (35:52):
Joy.
Speaker 2 (35:55):
Okay, On on Thursday we do small thing, big joy. There
are no small things. They give you so much joy
when you think about it.
Speaker 1 (36:02):
What's it for you?
Speaker 11 (36:03):
Patsy went out for lunch with a girlfriend yesterday. I
just felt had a hankering for a Coca Cola falls drength.
I thought, let's leave.
Speaker 2 (36:12):
It must be a full strength somewhere in the world
right now to go with Walker. Yeah, yeah, full strength
Bundy and full strength coat.
Speaker 11 (36:22):
And they served it in an old fashioned glass like
glass bottle streak from the middle of bottle.
Speaker 10 (36:28):
I swear it tastes different.
Speaker 11 (36:30):
It tastes so much better does Growing up, we never
had plastic, you know. Initially there was no soft ring
in plastic bottles. It was all glass bottles and we'd
recycle them for like five cents of bottle microplastics.
Speaker 1 (36:43):
It really wasn't Everything was glass. And it just.
Speaker 10 (36:46):
Comes colder and icier and tastier. I don't know what
it is. It's like a different recipe.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
It stays cold too. Yes, yeah, you're right, Alex. What's
it for you?
Speaker 13 (36:58):
You know, when you get water caught in your ear
and you just can't get it out. After you've been
for a swim and you're trying to do the head thing,
and then finally, like at night when you lie down
to go to sleep, it finally comes out happening.
Speaker 1 (37:11):
But the freedom you feel pour k hearing is back
a release that's a different from from a blockage.
Speaker 2 (37:25):
Yeah, as we tells Bonnie, now what's the small thing
big joy for you?
Speaker 1 (37:31):
Behind?
Speaker 5 (37:31):
When you're at the supermarket you don't have a coin
for the trolley, but then you spy a free range
lone wolf trolley separated from them.
Speaker 1 (37:39):
That's very very very rare.
Speaker 6 (37:41):
It's like you've won the lottery. I don't have to
rush back to the car. You grab it.
Speaker 1 (37:46):
Why they change them all up? Rio? How many are
they losing a year? Right? You don't get me. Stay
making billions and let us if we want a trolley.
I want a trolley, deserve a trolley.
Speaker 10 (37:56):
I'll bring it back some dit. They're expensive those things.
So it's a block of cheese really like a thousand
dollars each.
Speaker 1 (38:08):
Yes, you just make stuff up.
Speaker 10 (38:11):
The love God.
Speaker 11 (38:12):
My husband used to be markets and they are very expensive. People,
you know, make them into barbecues out my end of
town and.
Speaker 2 (38:20):
Everything make a barbecue.
Speaker 1 (38:26):
You don't live in the Bronx of Australia.
Speaker 10 (38:30):
They use the wheels for something else. They pull them apart. Really,
we're the fortune, That's why they do it.
Speaker 1 (38:36):
In the Great Depression on Road.

Speaker 1 (39:12):
Why haven't you got that one? Hey, Phil Night? Why
have you got the Nike website dot com? Today? It
was right there staring in the face, Christian. A small thing,
big joy for me.
Speaker 2 (39:22):
Freshly clean car with the tank full of petrol is
a great feeling, Adrian. I know exactly what you mean.
I think when I fill the car up it's like
I've given my car a three course dinner and it's
rubbing its tummy, going thank.
Speaker 1 (39:35):
You, master, small thing bgjoy.
Speaker 2 (39:38):
When I put the gets on and then walk away,
get distracted my housework stuff, then come back to the
kitchen and my husband has made me a fresh cup
of tea. A Christian, small thing, big joy. It just
happened real time. Listening to the show. I finished parking
right as the song finished. I never thought about that
(40:03):
happok to Troy listening to the show right now in
wa Small thing, big joy, no looping today on the
iHeart They're loving days behind us now, Troy, Christian. Small thing,
big joy for me is walking to the tram or
bus or train at the perfect time where you literally
arrive at the same time as the tram train bus
and it's.
Speaker 1 (40:24):
You're in sync.
Speaker 5 (40:25):
Yes you're moving and you don't have to do that
embarrassing jog.
Speaker 1 (40:29):
Christian.
Speaker 2 (40:29):
There's no way Pats is right. I mean, what do
you talk about. There's so much there is it's about
the news, or oh it's about the shopping trolley. There's
no way it's a thousand dollars for a shopping trolley.
Speaker 10 (40:38):
It's up there.
Speaker 11 (40:40):
Look there has found out they're eighty dollars.
Speaker 1 (40:42):
It's actually down there.
Speaker 10 (40:45):
Absolutely not.
Speaker 11 (40:46):
That might be one of the baskets. There's got to
be someone listening. It's across Australia that's in supermarkets that
can tell us how much trolley.
Speaker 6 (40:54):
The Internet said three hundred max eighty.
Speaker 2 (40:57):
So what are you, Pats and I age? You just
said the Internet says that's what people like us say.
Believe you're in your thirties and you're going listen, you're
start age up, go down, young fellow Christian. If a
trolley it's worth one thousand dollars, it doesn't make sense
that a one dollar coin stops the theft. Okay, because
you're still nine hundred and ninety nine dollars quits.

Speaker 3 (45:05):
In pain, Christian O'Connell show go on podcast.
Speaker 2 (45:09):
Christ And I want to say that I was so
pissed off when I heard you were coming and replacing
Jones Amanda in Sydney. You're welcome Sydney. I wasn't even
going to give you a go, but I have and
now I love your show. And that's some journey we've
been on and just a couple of shows from eight
to New fan and but I get it, and thank
you very much for being part of the show. Over
(45:31):
the next couple of months, we are going to be
doing I don't want to clap my hands. I a
teacher on the first day of time. Hey kids, please
call me Chris. But for the next couple of months,
we are going to be taking the show on the road.
We plan to come to every city that we're live
in and meet up there as well. I will be
giving dates next week. I am coming to Sydney in
a couple of weeks time and I will be doing
(45:51):
some meetups there. The other thing I really want to
do as well. Obviously, for the last week and a
half we've been doing big stuff every day with the
Australian Open, and we've been doing stuff for them for
the last couple of years. Grand Prix is here next month.
It is huge. It's going to be the biggest one ever.
And I think, just hearing how much people love shopping trolleys,
we really have to do a shopping trolley Grand Prix.
(46:13):
Oh yes, actual supermarket trolleys. They're all wonky. You ever
got one that goes straight? They don't make them like that,
so you're all gonna be wonky, and it's whoever's on
the podium finished, who's the wonky winner. They should actually
do the entire lap of a park, would that even say?
Speaker 1 (46:35):
With those wonky Grand Prixs?
Speaker 2 (46:37):
And if you get it off the track instant of qualification, yeah,
you've got to keep it on there as well. So
I don't know what they're like the Grand Prix about
letting people just have access to the court, really chilling,
chilled up for grabs, something that's something like that, and imagine.
All right, so let's tell you about the Cabanathon. Last
Friday on the show, we were giving away Christian O'Connell's
(46:59):
show branded beach cabanners.
Speaker 1 (47:01):
I didn't know the demand of this was huge.
Speaker 2 (47:03):
We had so many people calling in all weeken of
the long weekend, as well tons of emails, and I'm
still getting them. People begging for these cabaners. So I thought,
is there anything else we can do on these cambanners?
Maybe as we're into the second week of this new
national radio show, this to me is the kind of
test of the strength of the team that we have
now around this big country. So Josh, who works on
(47:26):
the show, who's a lovely guy. In about two hours
he's flying to the Gold Coast. The dream is to
with your general City and Kindness deal listeners that you
move a cabaner. He's sort of seen do you still
love me? And new fan out you move to Jones
your man to do this, You move a cabana from
There's no there's no reward in this, oh, I said,
(47:48):
and the honor I've taken by in the cabanathon. You
move the Cabaner from the Gold Coast down to Sydney,
to Sydney, to Melbourne, to Melbourne to Adelaide, Adelaide to Perth.
Speaker 1 (48:01):
It's one giant, trustful.
Speaker 12 (48:03):
And now we'll move five thousand days too fat shape
from door to door and move mis cabana cross state and.
Speaker 1 (48:15):
Even gross than null. That's the plan, that's the mission.
Speaker 2 (48:21):
Can you help us out, Jazz can She's gonna be
waiting today at the Gold Coast to receive the cabana.
Then if it all goes to plan, kayden is it listener?
Rowena who is picking it up from Jazz tomorrow Gold
Coast and driving their towns to Sydney.
Speaker 7 (48:38):
Rowena has changed plans. Oh, she's leaving today because she
wants to get ahead and make sure that it makes
it to Sydney.
Speaker 1 (48:45):
You're kidding. She's doing that for us.
Speaker 10 (48:47):
Yeah, she's doing that for us.
Speaker 7 (48:48):
So she's going to day early.
Speaker 2 (48:49):
Generally touched by that to change your plans.
Speaker 7 (48:54):
Yeah, So she and Jazz are going to meet at
a location called Hot Tomato, which is a sister radio.
Speaker 2 (49:00):
Station to us at that radio station. Someone who used
to work here runs it. It's a massive radio station.
Hot Tomato have always said, there's job for me. If
I'm ready to retire to go and work up there,
I'd always have that in my back pocket. It's a
national gig. Does it work out, don't worry about me.
I'm coming to the Hot Tomato.
Speaker 5 (49:17):
If the Cavada doesn't make it to Birth Christians on
the Big Tea.
Speaker 7 (49:23):
So they're going to meet there at about one pm
this afternoon, and then she's going to drive it from
there to Sydney.
Speaker 1 (49:29):
You must how wan the drive is that.
Speaker 7 (49:31):
It's about nine hours I think. And also she's going
to stop at the Big Banana and the Big Pineapple
take a photo with it.
Speaker 1 (49:39):
Of course, this is brilliant.
Speaker 2 (49:44):
And then next week we then need to work out
who gets it from Sydney.
Speaker 7 (49:49):
Yes, we need someone from Sydney to Melbourne. And you
can stop along the way like it could be.
Speaker 10 (49:53):
In the middle right of you.
Speaker 1 (49:54):
Yeah, you're going to have to.
Speaker 2 (49:55):
Do the full treat.
