Speaker 1 (00:01):
Got anything good.
Speaker 2 (00:02):
Hey, this is the Christian Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 3 (00:10):
Christian O'Connell show. Jack, what have you been googling recently?
Speaker 4 (00:13):
I had to google if my car was insured. I
didn't know what do you mean?
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Haven't you got like an email with the policy and
you run a wildlife Sometimes.
Speaker 4 (00:24):
The Adam inside of my brain just is in comatose.
So I was going, so you are this year.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
I've never seen any more organized. You more organized anyone
else in the team. Yes.
Speaker 4 (00:35):
So future me, if I was insuring my car this year,
I would know where to put that file. But old
me he didn't know where to store that. So we
went to a couple of weeks ago, we went to
RACV Goldfields, one of those RACV parks, and someone asked
me if I'm an RACV member, you get a discount.
I think I am, but I'm not sure. And it
(00:57):
was as I was looking through my email, I was like,
I actually don't even know if my car is insured anymore.
It illegal I'm seeing, Well you get it. No, you
get the third part insurance with your when you pay
your roades in regio.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
I didn't know that.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
Yeah, so you only had they'd have to ensure it
with an insurance company if you want to protect yourself
and comprehensive insurance. But I hadn't been protecting yourself since
twenty twenty one.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
Oh out that? No still kidding? Is there?
Speaker 4 (01:30):
So I googled is there a database to check if
my car is insured in Australia? Because maybe I change?
Speaker 3 (01:35):
Maybe I changed the database's job. What is this database
to look after your ass?
Speaker 4 (01:40):
So I wasn't you with RACV in twenty twenty one?
Maybe I moved somewhere else and forgot I moved.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
Did you just search like an email inbox or bank
account statements?
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (01:48):
I was searching for things like RACV insurance car but
that brought up too many emails of course.
Speaker 5 (01:55):
Yeah, can't you if you do a search for your
like if you put your number plate in online the.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
Then just see if it's registered, won't you? No?
Speaker 4 (02:01):
Yeah, it only tells you if you're registered. It wouldn't
tell me if I had.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
I've just got this image of you calling all car
insurance coming. My name is Jack Post? Is he you
one with fair question? Actually? Have a quick look. No,
it's not nice. Hello, my name is Jack Posts. That's
your today bringing? What ten different insurance companies. Hello, have
you got my money?
Speaker 4 (02:22):
And shouldn't it be a database on?
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Why? No, all of them databases for everything to look
after all this stuff. It all was down to us.
So what are you new get? In short?
Speaker 4 (02:31):
Well, I want to make sure first I'm not insured
anywhere before I buy insurance.
Speaker 5 (02:36):
How are you going to assume that?
Speaker 3 (02:37):
Other than calling everybody? You just take an RACV policy.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
Too many things now come out of our bank accounts
their own, so we don't like at the end of
the year for all I know, well, one of the
insurance company could take it out and go, oh, that's
right away with Greg's insurance.
Speaker 5 (02:52):
But there's no like CHECKI bank statements and no you know,
regular monthly payments going on.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
I think you can now online with banks teams. You
can in the search thing on your statements go like insurance,
but they're often not listed sensibly like that are they?
It's just got random names.
Speaker 4 (03:09):
But the why that my bank? They are doing a
worse job of me than keeping inventory of whatever they
spend money on.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
You need to get them a copy of that. Getting
things done. But by Dave Annon Grier The.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Christian O'Connell Show, podcast.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
Christian O'Connell's show. We've just been talking about the unusual
things that have been googling, and then last we're asking
Google on the last sort of day or two. And
then Jack as sister put chat to hand grenade in
the fish pond of the show, and it is one
hundred percent woken everybody up listening where people are like, wait,
what Robin sleep does OTHERWI it's quite it's the phone.
I need to intervene right now. Jack had been trying
(03:45):
to work out if he had car insurance. You believe
that when you get your car red shoe, they look
after all that out the decency of their own heart for.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
You, I thought, and I did misspeak, and I'm seeing
that everybody else knows the true way to do it.
But I said that private insurance is just for if
you want to protect your own car, and your registration
protects every other car on the road. I thought, that's
why our regis were so expensive, because we were buying
in built insurance into the registration.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
So the privilege of driving on all those well maintained
victoria wrong.
Speaker 4 (04:19):
Yeah, And I said it like it was fact. So
sorry if you thought that that was fact.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
It is not and Christian place and this message time
thousands at the moment, Christian, please tell Jack that his
REGI only includes third party insurance. He's not covered if
he hits someone else's car for damage. And please could
you reassure this truth fact anyone else listened right now
who might be confused or Heaven forbid, think like Jack.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
Wait, so that's where I am confused. What is third
party meaning?
Speaker 3 (04:47):
Then?
Speaker 4 (04:47):
I thought third party was the other car. No, real
it's third party injury. So it's only if you injure
the person in the car. It doesn't protect the car itself.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
So they could say that their car was the right
off and it was just aside that comes right off.
You're buying them a brand new car twenty thirty forty
eight thousand.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
I thought that was Vicros, who were like, hey, we'll
look up.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Why would they cover that for us? Man? The idiot
drivers out there while we go, Hey, this one's on us,
mister post you're crappy driving, we cover that. No wonder
victory is so much billion dollar debt they're paying for
everyone's new carle beaters.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
And I have always obviously misunderstood that for thirty odd years.
Speaker 5 (05:27):
No, see, this is what they need to teach at school.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
Not it's not the school went to the school system.
There are captain education. But we've all got car insurance
every day. Don't come to his a patsy, So get
that apple. Watch throughout the show you go do do
the pickup dray cleaning ordered new chia seeds at midday
(05:52):
must be hipster ones. I haven't heard captain spot tell
the bridge that you need to get car insurance. Call
our ACV.
Speaker 4 (05:59):
Remind me of ten am to get car insurance.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
No nine am, because you leave here at nine am
in the car that is uninsured. You know what I'm
going to do now, I'm going to throw myself in
front of your car. Every pity penny. Yeah, all that
harbl money is coming my way.

yourself saying fair di income on the radio. Test When
my back goes out more than me signs you an adult, Glen.
When you deal with one pain, another minitually takes his
place an entirely different part of your body. Lisa, fresh
bed sheets and a doner cover. Yeah, that's the end result.
There's nothing worse when you come back to your house
(07:05):

you're just about to go and have a little afternoon nap.
Make sure want to cry, Sam, New sponges excite you. Yeah,

Speaker 5 (07:48):
Bottom left?
Speaker 3 (07:49):
I was filled with the I don't use. I try
not to use any of the bottom ones. I'm worry
about the handles being too close and getting banged or knocked.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
No, I feel like the back ones are too close
to the splashback. Then you have to wipe it is.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
There's a lot of us, Like Dexter has been cooking
in my chopping people up at my kitchen. When I
do a spag bowl, it's like a Jackson Pollock on
the back there. There's like mess messus. It does get
very messy. All right, signs you're grown up? Morning Jane?

Good morning?
Speaker 3 (08:18):
All right Jane. What is it for you then? What's
the sign that you're grown up?
Speaker 8 (08:21):
For me?
Speaker 1 (08:22):
It is when the supermarkets change their layer and move
all the products, and it's just so annoying because you
can't find the one thing you went in for and
you come out with twenty things.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
Yeah. I mean, as grown ups, we lose our mind
with that happenings, like why would they why have they
done this? Where's the bread? I don't wander around finding someone.
Where's the bread now? Where is the bread now? Yeah, Jane,
it's a nightmare and absolutely is one way you know
you've grown when you lose your mind. Where they simply
rearrange the supermarket. You can't believe how they would do
(08:52):
that your life in.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
The good news is they do play good music now.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Yeah, they've all got their own radio stations, haven't they.
The other day on a Sunday they were playing the Smiths,
one morose sort of British rock band. But I was
just like, this is quite yes, playing Smith's on a
Sunday Cols Radio. Jane, thank you very much to cool

Christian O'Connell Show. What are the signs? You know when
you're a grown up you're excited to an you wake
up in the morning and you didn't have to add
up to go for a pegur on the night. That's
the best day ever, is it? When your middle aged? No,
p wow, I could have been loved every day, Kyle
Christian signs your granner. When everyone in the house knows
not to sit in your chair, it's a definitive moment
(09:40):
that you even have a chair. I even hear my
daughters sons, and one of they got friends. I don't
sit there that dad's chair. Let's not poke that bear the.
Speaker 5 (09:50):
Love God's got that mom and Dad don't even see
his cheer. It's like an exclusion zone.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
Yeah. I could tell when my teenage daughters are in
a testing movie where one of them is sitting in
there and they're glaring at me. Just try it, and
I'm like, you've got five seconds, and then they get right.
I start and they get right to three. That just
scuttle across.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
I remember me and my brother daring each other to
seat in my grandpa's chair when he wasn't.
Speaker 7 (10:13):
In the room.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
It's about the only thing I will lose my mind
about in the house. The rest of it, I don't
really care. I don't really come so low on the
total potle. I don't have any rights. But just give
me that chair, please, Christian. I can't call him. I'm
not at work. It's all right. You don't need to
tell us the story of excuses. Signs you've grown up.
My husband and I were talking last night about what
(10:35):
we would save in a house fire, and I said
my kitchen aid and crop pop. Gabrielle, that is a
sign your grown up, Shelly, good morning.
Speaker 9 (10:45):
Hi. Well I think I'm pretty grown up now. I
get excited. If we've had a bit of a hot
spell and I know it's going to rain, I start
it starts rowing. I run outside and sprinkle out my
fertilizer on the grass. I've just come mad about my grass.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
Yeah. Yeah, caring about the lawn is another. Even being
aware of that you have the careful or even choosing
what kind of fake grants you're going to get.
Speaker 4 (11:08):
When we got our lawn putting in, he said, Now,
fertilized it four times a year. Put in your calendar
every three months, fertilized lawn. It comes up in my calendar.
Steal every three months.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
I've got that too, put a reminder. And I thought,
this is what a grown up woul probably do. You
just have it in there. It's a it's going to
work for me. I've net you look at it. I'm
not doing that. It's catchy and horrible.
Speaker 9 (11:31):
I found myself browsing the aisle in bannings of all
the fertilizers, reading them like I.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Was in.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
Can you come around and do mine, then, please please

Speaker 10 (12:12):
Hello.
Speaker 8 (12:14):
Oh look, I just took delivery of clear fridge storage.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
You knows, and it has been the greatest day of
my life.
Speaker 8 (12:21):
I'm told I'm overly excited about it.
Speaker 9 (12:23):
Is in my family think I'm odd, but I don't know.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
No, no, I get all of this. That fridge is
a nightmare. We all need someone like Mary Condo to
come round and organize the fridge because there's a hierarchy.
There's the bits at the side, and then there's the
bit of the back, and then sometimes there's that bit
where they go over the top like in the wall,
and they go down the back, don't they behind the
iceberg lettuce, there's like a jar or something.
Speaker 4 (12:44):
If something's not in the front row, it's dead to me.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
No, you're right, it's the VIP section. That's it. I
don't care about what's some row five or six there?
So what have you got? How are you organizing it?
Speaker 7 (12:55):
It is everything.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
There's one for the eggs. There's one for like soda
cans that you pull the front one and the rest
come forward. There's one for like yoga its and like
a fruiting with like a divider in the middle.
Speaker 9 (13:07):
It's beyond exciting.
Speaker 10 (13:08):
My son's like, can you open it?
Speaker 8 (13:10):
I've got him excited.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
He's nine.
Speaker 6 (13:12):
He just wants to play with the bubble rap.
Speaker 9 (13:14):
But my husband was just looking at me, going, I
don't know, I can hear.
Speaker 6 (13:20):
It's it's ridiculous, but that's.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
My life now. My kids. For Christmas, I love a
lazy Susan. Right, I want to be buried revolving for
the lazy Susan. For Christmas, they got me three lazy Susans, right,
two for the fridge. I do you know you could
get a lazy You can. Don't get them. They do
not work. It's clutter all. It's like a traffic jam
or just piled up in the things fall off. The
mayonnaise is like tarring over the other ones. It's made
(13:46):
it worse. It's a headache. And I look in there
and I see that lazy Susan Marie, I get it,
thank you very much. She cool.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
So yesterday you went jean shop.
Speaker 4 (14:00):
I'm in the process of getting rid of the skinny
jean which is no longer trendy or cool, getting them
all out of the wardrobe and replacing them with the
irregular fit which I've got on now, which is the
straight leg jean.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
The straight leg is the gene of the dad. Yep.
But also now you're a dad, you've got to have
you'll start to get. You got the quarter sort of
zip up fleece as well.
Speaker 4 (14:21):
It's the it's the gene of the youth as well,
because no one's doing skinny jean anymore.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
I don't know. I look around the young they're still
rocking skinny jeans.
Speaker 4 (14:29):
I know the skinny jeans are out that.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
Those are sensible genes, thank you very much. They are
like you're going to go and say, you know, do
some gardening or stuff like that, you know, go and
clean out the drains or something.
Speaker 4 (14:39):
So I put tried these on in the change room,
loved them when bored them.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
Do you mind if I ask what brand you're going
for what you're rocking.
Speaker 4 (14:45):
These are Levi's classic Levi's five on ones five fourteens
fit better, They do fit better. Yeah, okay, this is
the straight leg.
Speaker 3 (14:53):
Yes, straight leg. Yeah. It's sort of regular, isn't it.
The straight leg is a regular? Yes? Yeah.
Speaker 4 (14:57):
And they're still selling the skinny jeans. I wanted to
even know less people buying them because I know, between
you and me, they're out of style.
Speaker 3 (15:04):
Now, if that's what you need to tell us out
we all have these stories we until us have. It's okay, So.
Speaker 4 (15:12):
I left my skinny jeans that I took in there
in the change rooms because I don't need them anymore,
paid for these jeans and left me.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
No, we don't move on from that. What do you mean?
You try jeans on? Right, you're happy with them? I
just walk out with these, and I leave my old
jeans that my bum has been in, and my junk
and all that on the floor for someone else to touch.
Speaker 4 (15:31):
That's right. Yeah, I haven't snipped off the tags. Don't
you ever wear stuff out.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
Of the No, because I tell you what, I'm not
on the.
Speaker 4 (15:38):
Run, right, No, I didn't. I didn't think that was weird.
Do you not wear stuff out of the store.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
And they know no trainers I have done before?
Speaker 4 (15:48):
Were they? And they'll snip the tags for you And
you say thank you, but you did it for them. Well, no,
she snipped the tags off. What I didn't tell her
is that my old jeans were tucked in the horrible
surprise for somebody. Is that bad?
Speaker 3 (16:03):
Yes, you're actually saying, here, you pick up my mess
and a mess.
Speaker 4 (16:09):
Yeah, I guess it's a mess like.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
Somebody. I've never heard anyone just leaving their old clothes
in there.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
Well, joke was on me. By the time I got
back to my car, I realized my parking ticket was
in the pocket of my old Jane's.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
Calm, So what do you have to do? Go and
press that buzzer and try and hope for a human
to speak to I did.
Speaker 4 (16:29):
You shouldn't endorse this, but I ghosted out the person
in front of me. So as they're leaving you, you
tail behind them and you get under the barrier.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
What a day in the right of our friend.
Speaker 4 (16:41):
But Jack post, I was in dire situation.
Speaker 3 (16:45):
And you pay, They just go yeah, got a paystell.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
Yeah, but I was only there for fifteen minutes. In
the car park. I'm not going to pay for the daily.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
A loose life sometimes, so.
Speaker 4 (16:56):
Maybe I was on the run actually after all, And
I see my wardrobe.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
Clean the scene, so you've obviously done this before. I
think I have.
Speaker 4 (17:05):
I didn't know. It's so strange. Sometimes sometimes if I
buy new clothes, i'll wear it out, but take my
old clothes because I still want them. But if I
don't want them anymore, I'll just leave them in the change.
Don't see stuff just left in the changer.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
That's their stuff. That's their stuff. And they go and
then put it back out there, don't they They steam
it and they go. That's their stuff, not some random dudes.
Dirty old, dirty old jeans. He doesn't want anywhere. There's
a special bend for them.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
That's a good point. I just never really thought about.
Speaker 3 (17:34):
All right, Okay, okay, So Patsy, you ever heard anything
like this.
Speaker 4 (17:38):
No, I'm shocked.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
I haven't.
Speaker 5 (17:40):
You might take a five year old to get new shoes,
but you like them so much they want to.
Speaker 4 (17:44):
Wear them out of the I think I left shoes, clothes.
You've left sh sh No, No, no, what about jobs?
What's no? You can't you can't try try it on
jobs for anything I've tried on and I've like a
T shirt and I'm like, I like this new new
T shirt and I don't want the old one system
(18:06):
to deal with that, right, I just want to check
rio you ever done anything?
Speaker 3 (18:09):
I haven't, so I don't know whether it's just me.
It's shocking.
Speaker 4 (18:12):
No, I would never do that.
Speaker 3 (18:13):
All right? Do you know what I'm gonna I'm gonna
ask people who listen right now, has anyone ever done
this before? Where you've gone into the change room, you
like what you've tried on, you decide to walk out
and pay with it, but you'll leave your old clothes
on the floor them for them to pick up. Horrible
discovery for someone like.
Speaker 4 (18:31):
Country Road. The ones nothing against Country Road. They had
a good inn ease, but I had done with them.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
And by the way, some old pants of no. No,
basically you have said that it's unset, but it hanging
in the air that it's your business to chuck my
whole jeets. I've had a good run. Anyone ever done.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
This Christian Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
You may be surprised here that has been a very fair,
very big reaction. It's rare that whilst we're talking, people
are calling in just to say what the hell is
coming out of the speakers.
Speaker 4 (19:10):
The last five minutes has been a sobering experience to
see the reaction of everybody.
Speaker 3 (19:16):
So, if you just joined us, let's us rewind the
events of yesterday afternoon. A man, your friend, my friend,
Jack Post goes shopping for jeans, a common experience. He
likes his Levi's. He looks at his old levice on
the floor and thinks, I'll leave them there for somebody
else to clear up and get rid of. I'll walk
out of here.
Speaker 4 (19:35):
In these new genes, I thought it was more common
than I thought that you walk out with what you
try on. You try it on, you like it. Oh,
we're it out of the store.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
I've never heard of it, never heard of it. Christian.
I worked in retail years ago, and whilst tidying up,
I found a set of dentures in a pocket of
a men's dressing gown that a customer had returned. Oh
my god, the text are the text are one hundred percent?
What what? What? What? What?
Speaker 9 (20:03):
I want to know?
Speaker 5 (20:04):
How you so, so you got this shop assistant to
cut the tags? So is this a major department store
or like a literally.
Speaker 4 (20:17):
This is a DEFO in South Warf, so already defo
is a bit looser than a normal No.
Speaker 3 (20:23):
No, it's they still don't have to clear up other
people's closed.
Speaker 4 (20:28):
It has a warehouse. No no, no, everything's discount.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
But that doesn't mean that downgrade the stuff.
Speaker 4 (20:36):
But yes, I did. I had so I bought, tried
them on, went back into my jeans, went and paid
for them.
Speaker 5 (20:44):
You're wondering how you paid it?
Speaker 4 (20:45):
Do you mind cutting the tags off? I'm going to
wear them out of the store, and then went back,
went back into the change room, put the new jenes
On thought I don't need all.
Speaker 3 (20:54):
This test so many points where you could have had
the word here is awareness. Yeah, you kind of thought, actually,
to know what, I'll just put these odd ones in
this bag and I chuck them in the bin out
in the main concourse.
Speaker 4 (21:05):
There every question you're asking, like what do you think
they do with them? What are you doing? Are you crazy?
None of this crossed my mind, yes, say none of
it clearly, you know.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
And actually when I first heard about this again, I
pitched Now, you know, when you're just incredulous, that's just
like who would do this, and maybe what he says,
you know what, you just don't know. You don't know.
Maybe he's a thing here in Australia. Maybe I don't know.
I grew up a different way. I think I don't know. Uh.
This comes with Karen Christian evan of anybody doing what
(21:34):
Chac did, leaving its dirty clothes behind, inconsiderace of stuff
that to pick up after him. He's not five years
old for crying out loud. Any radio show that makes
you can't tell them going for crying out loud. Apart
from that, you're not you know, you are meant to
wash clothes before wearing them, to get rid of the
residue from the dice. That's not helped. That is our
problem about him. I'm wearing the blue balls today, whatever
(21:57):
LEVI nuts, I'm.
Speaker 4 (22:00):
Still wearing them today without washing them.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
Let's go to Kathy. Good morning, Kathy.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
Oh my god, I'm sitting here listening to this on
my way to work thinking what is wrong with you?
Speaker 4 (22:12):
Jack?
Speaker 1 (22:13):
You never fail seriously to amaze me at least once
a week. I am still looking for a support group
for what you did with that higher car.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Said earlier. I went, I thought the higher car was
like you knew bottom of a bar, but who knew? No,
there's more levels of this, like donkey Kong. We're not
out final boss level of Jack yet.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
I mean, seriously, Jack, I don't care that you wore
the jeans out of the place, right, but at least
ask them for a bag so you can put your
old jens in it and take them home.
Speaker 3 (22:47):
Yeah, chuck them in another bit outside DFO.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
Honestly, what are you?
Speaker 4 (22:54):
This feels kind of like what an intervention must be,
like everybody everywhere you look, everyone.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
But what a grand scale want an entire city.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
I'm sorry, Jack, but I just sometimes think you need
your own segment.
Speaker 8 (23:07):
Forget about what are the odds?
Speaker 1 (23:09):
It's like, what the hell is Jack?
Speaker 3 (23:12):
What are the jacks?
Speaker 4 (23:16):
There's no sign on the door anywhere in there, anywhere
in there that says don't right, you're right, you're right?
Speaker 3 (23:23):
Yeah, yeah, Please don't steal stuff. You're right. You should
have more signage every that's the problem. Kathy, thank you
very much. Just got a Sharon now used to work
at kmart. Sharon, Good morning, guys.
Speaker 7 (23:33):
I understand where Jack is coming from.
Speaker 3 (23:36):
It happens more often than anybody realizes, So you worked
at Camar.
Speaker 10 (23:42):
I worked at kmart for about fifteen years.
Speaker 7 (23:45):
I've found jans shirts, jumpers, shoes, bathers, underwear.
Speaker 4 (23:52):
No, yeah, yeah, yeah, there's a segment of society we
didn't know that you weren't mental leave stuff behind.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
I'm going to cooll you Camar.
Speaker 4 (24:01):
No, no one, no one told us and there's no signs.
Speaker 3 (24:06):
But do you know what showing Last year I was
in my local kmart, right and uh, and I want
to try something on. The lady went, I'm afraid you can't.
There's been a problem in the males changing rooms. And
I went, what's that? She goes, well, surely, saying but
someone's doing And I went, oh my god, you don't
get that every day as she goes. You'd be surprised now,
(24:31):
Jacks thinking, actually, you know, I didn't mean to go
to toilet. Draw any parallels. Actually, do you know what now?
I know why you got with those jeans. I think
you've pulled your pants. No, because before the show you
had to run to the toilet. Pants. Yeah, there's a
little Mars bar in them.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
Christian Code Show podcast.
Speaker 3 (24:54):
Christian the last half hour show is left me wondering
if Jack grew up in a cult.
Speaker 4 (25:01):
The last time I felt this way, honestly, was when
I told you guys that I have some shells where
I don't soap and I just rinse with water, and
you guys were like, oh, we use soap every time,
And now I use soap every time because.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
There is learning. There is good learning. As an interstate
truck driver, there is a shower at a service station
that I use, and it must be designed for people
like Jack and actually has a sign on the wall
that says, please don't poop in the shower.
Speaker 4 (25:26):
I don't.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
You don't think it would need a sign, But apparently
people like Jack thinks there needs to be signs up
everywhere telling you how about.
Speaker 4 (25:34):
Okay stop, because now people who've just tuned in will
think the last half hours I've pooped somewhere.
Speaker 3 (25:40):
Certain percent didn't do that. All right, let's get into
this week's what are the odds?
Speaker 2 (25:45):
Believe it or not? What are the odds?
Speaker 4 (25:49):
You gotta be justhing me, like.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
Were you a Sheryl who married a hun who was weird?
Speaker 2 (25:59):
The sheryl.
Speaker 4 (26:02):
Married Hu as well.
Speaker 8 (26:05):
I was on the train going to the city.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
Does all this vacant land, and I'm thinking to myself,
imagine how many snakes would be here, no jokes. I
look up and there is a hawk carrying a tiger
snake in its clause.
Speaker 10 (26:18):
Flying backyard cricket on Christmas Day on baton Dad's bowlin.
I hit the ball in the air. I started running.
Ball bounced on top of my head, so I kept running.
I bounced on my head for a second time, and
the old man caught me.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
Yet.
Speaker 5 (26:29):
I want to make a drink, and it was like
a really clear glass, and I said that to myself.
Speaker 9 (26:33):
I said, wow, this should really a clear loss of water.
Speaker 10 (26:35):
The next lady that caught up, her name was clear Water.
Speaker 3 (26:40):
What are the odd Yes? Remember him? Morning, Christian the
team This week, I was driving to work and you
played on the show rock Set joy Ride. Add exactly
seven point thirty nine the lyrics song. The line was
a wonderful balloon and look what was right ahead of me,
almost landing on the highway. This is a photo attached
(27:02):
to the email of a big, wonderful balloon. While she's
listening to this part of the song, she sees a
wonderful balloon. What are the odds? Now sadly Particia. Katelyn
has one this morning and she's insisting I go to
(27:25):
her here. Excuse me, this is amazing. No, this is sometimes
the old QC quality control with a lot of your
content can be all over the place. You're either doing
with gold or poops.
Speaker 5 (27:40):
Okay, this is a fantastic story, so I go.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
I've been to quite a few weddings recently. The last
three weddings that I have been to, every single groom
has been called Tom.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
That's incading three on the belts.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
Thank you, thank you.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
Protect your Stories.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
Next, Christian O'Connell show Go on podcast.
Speaker 3 (28:11):
Welcome to this week's what are the Odds your stories
of coincidence and chance Christian I have or what are
the Odds? Is from Rosanna? Have you Rosanna? When I
got home from work yesterday afternoon, there was a Dashmund puppy,
we you know, the lost sausage John Dashmund puppy across
from my driveway, just walking on its own in the gutter,
(28:33):
so I stopped to make sure I didn't cross in
front of my car. I was on the phone with
my sister yesterday evening, who lives up on the Gold Coast,
and I was telling her the story, and she went,
oh my god, there was a dash and dog in
my driveway today as well. What are the odds? Double dashuns?
(28:55):
Thank you, Rosanna. What a story. One's a tree, two
is a miracle on the driveways of siblings. What a
time to be alive right now, Jade, good morning.
Speaker 7 (29:10):
What are the odds? I was fishing years ago with
my dad and lost a lure, which is a crime
punishable by death in our family usually. And anyway, he
rebaited my hook, put another lure on for me. We
were fishing all afternoon later that day. Didn't think anything
of the lost lure. Later that day we dropped off
(29:30):
all the fish we'd caught to an old Greek friend
of his that wanted it. He picked up the tab
a couple days later with a lure in it, and
I said, and he said, well, where that lure come from?
He said it was inside one of the fish. So
we had caught the same fish twice.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
Wow, that is amazing, double fish. You know that story
has come into folk law. Yeah?
Speaker 4 (30:02):
Is that what you're right?
Speaker 3 (30:03):
Yeah? You don't want to forget that folk look, use
it if you want next time. Tallant All right, Jay,
thank you very much, and guys, please never lose your law.
We really heard a lot about that. Kenny, good morning.
What are the odds? Kenny?
Speaker 8 (30:19):
What are the odds? Christian? We recently had someone come
to measure up our kitchen and we had to lock
the dog away and the cat's away, and eventually the
lady said, oh, look alike. Animals said, well, you want
to meet our dog. So we brought our dog out.
His name is Whisper. That's not a very common name.
And she looked at me and she said, oh my god,
we have a cat called Whisper. I said, oh wow,
(30:39):
that's interesting. We've got a cat too, who name is Gypsy.
And she said, oh my god, we have a dog
called Gypsy.
Speaker 3 (30:49):
The negative opposite.
Speaker 10 (30:50):
Yeah, yes, both names and whispers not very common.
Speaker 8 (30:54):
Everybody know it's our dog because of Whisper, but she's
got the same but in the opposite.
Speaker 3 (30:58):
And we were just like, that's skit, Gipsy Gypsy whispers.
Love it, Kenny, awesome one, Thank you very much, have
a good day and you thanks go on the show.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
Christian Connell Show Podcast.
Speaker 3 (31:12):
After hearing Jack's three odds on Gordon, well, I won't
say playing he's using a harmonica. What do we think
are the worst sounding instruments when someone's inexperienced in the
art of them.
Speaker 4 (31:28):
That one is hard to be for me at the moment,
like any other instrument at the moment, after now almost
one hundred hours since once a.
Speaker 3 (31:36):
Kid knows that you don't like something, they have an
instrument of torture. It's not an instrument of pleasure. Now
he knows that it's writing you up. That he will
just be doing that even more now.
Speaker 4 (31:46):
And I want to harness his creativity because you jammed together.
Speaker 3 (31:49):
You want him to be a buddy musician like you
can be in a band.
Speaker 4 (31:52):
But then sometimes like oh not again.
Speaker 5 (31:55):
Hey, but you know what, I'm sure when little Jackie
started playing the guitar that little Jackie didn't sound as
perfect as he does now. I'm sure you're PreO.
Speaker 3 (32:03):
I don't know if you've heard him recently. Gave the
graceive what exactly Hendrix is he with it?
Speaker 5 (32:09):
Everyone has to start somewhere.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
He didn't have a King Richard in his life? Did
he have?
Speaker 4 (32:13):
But the guitar is less offensive and less harsh.
Speaker 3 (32:15):
On the now? I agree? Yeah, it is that this
is the notes is shrilly, what do you think is
the worst musical instrument, pansy.
Speaker 5 (32:25):
Oh, my beard jack, because remember Audrey used to learn
the violin.
Speaker 4 (32:30):
This is what we had.
Speaker 3 (32:31):
This is worse. I'm sorry. This is far worse, isn't it. Oh? Yeah, yeah.
One of my daughters started to go through violences and
you feel quite worthy as a parent that you're raising
some sort of prodigy, right, and then you realize, after
the sort of fifth lesson, that you're forking out a
(32:52):
lot of good money for like this kid ain't going
to be joining the role Phenomonic Orchestra, all right. I
remember just snapping one afternoon when I was trying to
this and work, and there was this kind of noise
piercing my skull, and I just I'm up. It still
gets brought up now, you know, just so many good
stuff as a dam years and years and now they
always remember your worst moments when that rare time, it's
(33:13):
about three times on I went, as long was it
going to go out? I think it was just a
primal scream. It wasn't even at the kids. It was
just too whatever, gods are out there, much longer? Must
I take this gone? For taking noise.
Speaker 4 (33:29):
And this just gets worse and worse.
Speaker 3 (33:30):
For I actually gets up for the ye oh, they
start going through the.
Speaker 5 (33:37):
So good when you've been up since three ayears in
the afternoon.
Speaker 3 (33:41):
Also, I would say one of the all time worst ones.
It is the humble recorder that like dribbling into it
as well. It's just that this sound of the recorder.
Speaker 4 (33:58):
Barely an instrument.
Speaker 3 (33:59):
Yeah, when over the next couple of years, you will
have to go to some musical assemblies, right and you
you better start practicing that face because you can't turn
up with that post face we see when we know, well,
when you don't like something, you have to be grinning
and it's real hard. No, no, no, but it will test that.
Start practicing that face right now. Okay, get in front
(34:19):
of the mirror because you have to say going this.
Oh bless these young tackers, these little rippers as they
blow and sort of wheeze into various instruments a whole
they'd be like twenty kids blowing on these black an
hour and you're at the ends. You're meant between every song,
oh my, oh my god, that's so good.
Speaker 2 (34:38):
Christian O'Connell show on podcast.
Speaker 3 (34:42):
We're too much worse musical instruments to learn Christian. My
daughter is learning the flute. Oh wow again, what are
these woodwind instruments? Yeah, it's the woodwind section, isn't it?
You know? Unforgiving for the amateur and anyone around that
amateurs all my daughter was the flute. At least that's
what I was paying for. It sounded like cat's screaming
(35:05):
in a room for three awful musts. She she had
before she lost it on the school bus. Sadly brackets,
Gladly it was never found. That's from Mary. Was it
lost to that? You just been it? My younger sister,
My younger sister, Jemi crazy learns to play ode to
Joy on her table MIDI keyboard over and over and
(35:29):
over and over and over. I don't think she'd learned
any other song. I gotta be honest. Anyone actually know
what joy is? How's it?
Speaker 5 (35:37):
Go's?
Speaker 3 (35:38):
Oh? What is it?
Speaker 4 (35:40):
Bump bump bump bump bum.
Speaker 3 (35:48):
No, I don't know. I went off somewhere else. I
was just doing like a little bit of a noodling.
Speaker 4 (35:52):
At the side. Famous classical songs of all time?
Speaker 3 (35:57):
Lucky can you get some of to Joy and put
it on? Drops? I need to be familiarized last week.
What was it him we were talk about last week
week at the moment Him was a coming to us.
They're going to get confused with the Christian of the show.
There's now arrival to the Late FM.
Speaker 4 (36:15):
Ojoy is from Symphony number nine by my God. Meg.
Speaker 3 (36:20):
Welcome to the show, morning, Christian.
Speaker 1 (36:22):
How are you.
Speaker 3 (36:23):
I'm good Meg, So tell me your story.
Speaker 6 (36:26):
My son was in a back grade two. He obviously
the whole school thing you learn, the recorder. He would
just run around just blowing into it the whole five like,
no songs, no tunes, nothing, just being an annoying kid.
And he took it to school and apparently he would
sit in school and just blow on it all during class.
The teachers sent it home in pieces. Take to a
(36:48):
piece of paper saying Joel is never to play this again.
Speaker 3 (36:54):
An intervention a recorder that is incredible in my mind.
When you say in pieces, I mean someone stabs on it,
some angry teacher has snapped.
Speaker 6 (37:05):
I think it was in three pieces. Reported break it
into three pieces.
Speaker 3 (37:08):
Yeah, yeah, Med, great story, Thank you very much to
call on the show.
Speaker 2 (37:12):
Mate, No problem, great Jake, Christian O'Connell show go on podcast.
Speaker 3 (37:18):
Christian O'Connell's show and talking about kids learning musical instruments
and the noise the pain. Christian my father said to me,
I could learn to play any musical instrument I wanted,
as long as I just plug the headphones in. Ironically,
I ended up playing the church organ to practice at
over one of those. So she got one in the
backyard or something there massive those big old pipes on
them and stuff like that. Christian in brackets center or
(37:45):
a drum kit for my now eight year old a
couple of years ago, and she'd had on a Christmas
list for years. When she plays it, it is awful.
She refused to have any lessons. Come on, come on,
you got to meet us halfway. Kids, She refused to
have any lessons, like animal from them up. It's just
banging the skins. It was pure torture. Then the ten
(38:06):
year old and three year old all yell at her
to stop. It's so bad. So I have two kids
screaming and the other kid on a drum kit trying
to match the screams to the other two kids. It's
enough to plunge a perry, menopausal woman of three into
further insanity, Cassie, we hear your pain. That is awful Christian.
Back in the eighties, it was a different time. My
(38:27):
brother bought a violin home from school to learn. This
went on for a couple of years and it gradually
got on my mum's nerves. She was a shift worker,
did two weeks of nights, two weeks of date. So
when one day she was sleeping in the afternoon, just
got out of bed, picked up the violin, opened the
front door, threw it out and then stamped on it.
End of violce all right, let's do her Late to
(38:50):
the Party. Late Late to the Party is your home
on this show for your emails. Often during the show
you're too busy to actually get involved with the show,
but you still want to have your say. It's called
Lates la Party. It can be weeks, months, even years later.
Catching up with all the old shows on the podcast
(39:11):
of the almost last seven years, you can find them
on the free iHeart platform. First email today from Late
to the Party comes from Jane Question. In January, I
was at the Australian Open. My friend went to the
toilet and a man was sitting beside me and his
name was Bobby and he was American. We got chatting
and I found it he's been living here for five years.
But he said, hen't I doesn't understand footy AFL. I
(39:33):
told her, look, you actually need to go with someone
who can answer your questions real time, long story shot.
I said, do you know what I'll take you?
Speaker 4 (39:40):
That's a huge favour.
Speaker 3 (39:41):
Finally we went to the Collingwood game. He boys brother
in law, fresh from the USA, with zero clues about AFL,
neither of them. They loved it. Lots of questions. This
was me in my early days of trying to work
out this mysterious game. Who are the people in purple?
They bring out the water? Can they change the direction
of a goal attempt and tell put through with their hands? No?
(40:01):
How long is e mcg? How far are they running
a game? My friend and I dip them out in
Collinwood scarfs. They've become instant fans. They wanted all the march.
The next day Bobby texted me to say they had
an amazing time. I just want to share how love
it was to share our great game with them. They
now become AFL fans. That's from Jane. That's a love
(40:23):
email and good only Jane for doing that as well.
And you're right, anyone who's who moves this country and
Melbourne tries to learn about the game, you can't do
it on TV. I remember going to so many games
and just being I must have been such a pain
in the backside to people I didn't even know next
to me, going why is that happening? And then you'd
hear this a lot. I don't need to worry about that.
Speaker 4 (40:41):
Bit, wasn't any Lee, one of your early chaperone tried.
Speaker 3 (40:45):
To get me to bear a Blues fan, And this
is in twenty seventeen, the year before we actually decided
to move here, and all our remember is just how
Andy's like an effervescent personalities and he's a lovely joyce man.
After that Blues game they'd lost, I didn't they spoilerer
they normally do. There was a change in and whatever
(41:05):
this team is, I will not be found. It was
an early lesson, but I remember even Hay getting slightly
irritated by the third quarter of this and he went,
just just watch it for a bit, talking the words
of what we used now to stop talking pomps.

Speaker 4 (00:13):
I had to google if my car was insured. I
didn't know what do you mean?
Speaker 3 (00:18):
Haven't you got like an email with the policy and
you run a wildlife Sometimes.
Speaker 4 (00:24):
The Adam inside of my brain just is in comatose.
So I was going, so you are this year.
Speaker 3 (00:32):
I've never seen any more organized. You more organized anyone
else in the team. Yes.
Speaker 4 (00:35):
So future me, if I was insuring my car this year,
I would know where to put that file. But old
me he didn't know where to store that. So we
went to a couple of weeks ago, we went to
RACV Goldfields, one of those RACV parks, and someone asked
me if I'm an RACV member, you get a discount.
I think I am, but I'm not sure. And it
(00:57):
was as I was looking through my email, I was like,
I actually don't even know if my car is insured anymore.
It illegal I'm seeing, Well you get it. No, you
get the third part insurance with your when you pay
your roades in regio.
Speaker 3 (01:12):
I didn't know that.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
Yeah, so you only had they'd have to ensure it
with an insurance company if you want to protect yourself
and comprehensive insurance. But I hadn't been protecting yourself since
twenty twenty one.
Speaker 3 (01:24):
Oh out that? No still kidding? Is there?
Speaker 4 (01:30):
So I googled is there a database to check if
my car is insured in Australia? Because maybe I change?
Speaker 3 (01:35):
Maybe I changed the database's job. What is this database
to look after your ass?
Speaker 4 (01:40):
So I wasn't you with RACV in twenty twenty one?
Maybe I moved somewhere else and forgot I moved.
Speaker 3 (01:44):
Did you just search like an email inbox or bank
account statements?
Speaker 1 (01:48):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (01:48):
I was searching for things like RACV insurance car but
that brought up too many emails of course.
Speaker 5 (01:55):
Yeah, can't you if you do a search for your
like if you put your number plate in online the.
Speaker 3 (01:59):
Then just see if it's registered, won't you? No?
Speaker 4 (02:01):
Yeah, it only tells you if you're registered. It wouldn't
tell me if I had.
Speaker 3 (02:07):
I've just got this image of you calling all car
insurance coming. My name is Jack Post? Is he you
one with fair question? Actually? Have a quick look. No,
it's not nice. Hello, my name is Jack Posts. That's
your today bringing? What ten different insurance companies. Hello, have
you got my money?
Speaker 4 (02:22):
And shouldn't it be a database on?
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Why? No, all of them databases for everything to look
after all this stuff. It all was down to us.
So what are you new get? In short?
Speaker 4 (02:31):
Well, I want to make sure first I'm not insured
anywhere before I buy insurance.
Speaker 5 (02:36):
How are you going to assume that?
Speaker 3 (02:37):
Other than calling everybody? You just take an RACV policy.
Speaker 4 (02:40):
Too many things now come out of our bank accounts
their own, so we don't like at the end of
the year for all I know, well, one of the
insurance company could take it out and go, oh, that's
right away with Greg's insurance.
Speaker 5 (02:52):
But there's no like CHECKI bank statements and no you know,
regular monthly payments going on.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
I think you can now online with banks teams. You
can in the search thing on your statements go like insurance,
but they're often not listed sensibly like that are they?
It's just got random names.
Speaker 4 (03:09):
But the why that my bank? They are doing a
worse job of me than keeping inventory of whatever they
spend money on.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
You need to get them a copy of that. Getting
things done. But by Dave Annon Grier The.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Christian O'Connell Show, podcast.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
Christian O'Connell's show. We've just been talking about the unusual
things that have been googling, and then last we're asking
Google on the last sort of day or two. And
then Jack as sister put chat to hand grenade in
the fish pond of the show, and it is one
hundred percent woken everybody up listening where people are like, wait,
what Robin sleep does OTHERWI it's quite it's the phone.
I need to intervene right now. Jack had been trying
(03:45):
to work out if he had car insurance. You believe
that when you get your car red shoe, they look
after all that out the decency of their own heart for.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
You, I thought, and I did misspeak, and I'm seeing
that everybody else knows the true way to do it.
But I said that private insurance is just for if
you want to protect your own car, and your registration
protects every other car on the road. I thought, that's
why our regis were so expensive, because we were buying
in built insurance into the registration.
Speaker 3 (04:14):
So the privilege of driving on all those well maintained
victoria wrong.
Speaker 4 (04:19):
Yeah, And I said it like it was fact. So
sorry if you thought that that was fact.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
It is not and Christian place and this message time
thousands at the moment, Christian, please tell Jack that his
REGI only includes third party insurance. He's not covered if
he hits someone else's car for damage. And please could
you reassure this truth fact anyone else listened right now
who might be confused or Heaven forbid, think like Jack.
Speaker 4 (04:44):
Wait, so that's where I am confused. What is third
party meaning?
Speaker 3 (04:47):
Then?
Speaker 4 (04:47):
I thought third party was the other car. No, real
it's third party injury. So it's only if you injure
the person in the car. It doesn't protect the car itself.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
So they could say that their car was the right
off and it was just aside that comes right off.
You're buying them a brand new car twenty thirty forty
eight thousand.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
I thought that was Vicros, who were like, hey, we'll
look up.
Speaker 3 (05:07):
Why would they cover that for us? Man? The idiot
drivers out there while we go, Hey, this one's on us,
mister post you're crappy driving, we cover that. No wonder
victory is so much billion dollar debt they're paying for
everyone's new carle beaters.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
And I have always obviously misunderstood that for thirty odd years.
Speaker 5 (05:27):
No, see, this is what they need to teach at school.
Speaker 3 (05:31):
Not it's not the school went to the school system.
There are captain education. But we've all got car insurance
every day. Don't come to his a patsy, So get
that apple. Watch throughout the show you go do do
the pickup dray cleaning ordered new chia seeds at midday
(05:52):
must be hipster ones. I haven't heard captain spot tell
the bridge that you need to get car insurance. Call
our ACV.
Speaker 4 (05:59):
Remind me of ten am to get car insurance.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
No nine am, because you leave here at nine am
in the car that is uninsured. You know what I'm
going to do now, I'm going to throw myself in
front of your car. Every pity penny. Yeah, all that
harbl money is coming my way.

my back goes out more than me signs you an adult, Glen.
When you deal with one pain, another minitually takes his
place an entirely different part of your body. Lisa, fresh
bed sheets and a doner cover. Yeah, that's the end result.
There's nothing worse when you come back to your house

not to use any of the bottom ones. I'm worry
about the handles being too close and getting banged or knocked.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
No, I feel like the back ones are too close
to the splashback. Then you have to wipe it is.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
There's a lot of us, Like Dexter has been cooking

Good morning?

All right Jane. What is it for you then? What's
the sign that you're grown up?
Speaker 8 (08:21):
For me?
Speaker 1 (08:22):
It is when the supermarkets change their layer and move
all the products, and it's just so annoying because you
can't find the one thing you went in for and
you come out with twenty things.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
Yeah. I mean, as grown ups, we lose our mind
with that happenings, like why would they why have they
done this? Where's the bread? I don't wander around finding someone.
Where's the bread now? Where is the bread now? Yeah, Jane,
it's a nightmare and absolutely is one way you know
you've grown when you lose your mind. Where they simply
rearrange the supermarket. You can't believe how they would do
(08:52):
that your life in.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
The good news is they do play good music now.
Speaker 3 (08:57):
Yeah, they've all got their own radio stations, haven't they.
The other day on a Sunday they were playing the Smiths,
one morose sort of British rock band. But I was
just like, this is quite yes, playing Smith's on a
Sunday Cols Radio. Jane, thank you very much to cool
myt have a good day.

The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

Christian O'Connell Show. What are the signs? You know when
you're a grown up you're excited to an you wake

up to go for a pegur on the night. That's
the best day ever, is it? When your middle aged? No,
p wow, I could have been loved every day, Kyle
Christian signs your granner. When everyone in the house knows
not to sit in your chair, it's a definitive moment
(09:40):
that you even have a chair. I even hear my
daughters sons, and one of they got friends. I don't
sit there that dad's chair. Let's not poke that bear the.
Speaker 5 (09:50):
Love God's got that mom and Dad don't even see
his cheer. It's like an exclusion zone.
Speaker 3 (09:54):
Yeah. I could tell when my teenage daughters are in
a testing movie where one of them is sitting in
there and they're glaring at me. Just try it, and
I'm like, you've got five seconds, and then they get right.
I start and they get right to three. That just
scuttle across.
Speaker 4 (10:09):
I remember me and my brother daring each other to
seat in my grandpa's chair when he wasn't.
Speaker 7 (10:13):
In the room.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
It's about the only thing I will lose my mind
about in the house. The rest of it, I don't
really care. I don't really come so low on the
total potle. I don't have any rights. But just give
me that chair, please, Christian. I can't call him. I'm
not at work. It's all right. You don't need to
tell us the story of excuses. Signs you've grown up.
My husband and I were talking last night about what
(10:35):
we would save in a house fire, and I said
my kitchen aid and crop pop. Gabrielle, that is a
sign your grown up, Shelly, good morning.
Speaker 9 (10:45):
Hi. Well I think I'm pretty grown up now. I
get excited. If we've had a bit of a hot
spell and I know it's going to rain, I start
it starts rowing. I run outside and sprinkle out my
fertilizer on the grass. I've just come mad about my grass.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
Yeah. Yeah, caring about the lawn is another. Even being
aware of that you have the careful or even choosing
what kind of fake grants you're going to get.
Speaker 4 (11:08):
When we got our lawn putting in, he said, Now,
fertilized it four times a year. Put in your calendar
every three months, fertilized lawn. It comes up in my calendar.
Steal every three months.
Speaker 3 (11:19):
I've got that too, put a reminder. And I thought,
this is what a grown up woul probably do. You
just have it in there. It's a it's going to
work for me. I've net you look at it. I'm
not doing that. It's catchy and horrible.
Speaker 9 (11:31):
I found myself browsing the aisle in bannings of all
the fertilizers, reading them like I.
Speaker 2 (11:37):
Was in.
Speaker 3 (11:40):
Can you come around and do mine, then, please please
fertilize my lawn's paper.

Hello.

Oh look, I just took delivery of clear fridge storage.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
You knows, and it has been the greatest day of
my life.
Speaker 8 (12:21):
I'm told I'm overly excited about it.
Speaker 9 (12:23):
Is in my family think I'm odd, but I don't know.
Speaker 3 (12:25):
No, no, I get all of this. That fridge is
a nightmare. We all need someone like Mary Condo to
come round and organize the fridge because there's a hierarchy.
There's the bits at the side, and then there's the
bit of the back, and then sometimes there's that bit
where they go over the top like in the wall,
and they go down the back, don't they behind the
iceberg lettuce, there's like a jar or something.
Speaker 4 (12:44):
If something's not in the front row, it's dead to me.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
No, you're right, it's the VIP section. That's it. I
don't care about what's some row five or six there?
So what have you got? How are you organizing it?
Speaker 7 (12:55):
It is everything.
Speaker 1 (12:56):
There's one for the eggs. There's one for like soda
cans that you pull the front one and the rest
come forward. There's one for like yoga its and like
a fruiting with like a divider in the middle.
Speaker 9 (13:07):
It's beyond exciting.
Speaker 10 (13:08):
My son's like, can you open it?
Speaker 8 (13:10):
I've got him excited.
Speaker 1 (13:11):
He's nine.
Speaker 6 (13:12):
He just wants to play with the bubble rap.
Speaker 9 (13:14):
But my husband was just looking at me, going, I
don't know, I can hear.
Speaker 6 (13:20):
It's it's ridiculous, but that's.
Speaker 3 (13:22):
My life now. My kids. For Christmas, I love a
lazy Susan. Right, I want to be buried revolving for
the lazy Susan. For Christmas, they got me three lazy Susans, right,
two for the fridge. I do you know you could
get a lazy You can. Don't get them. They do
not work. It's clutter all. It's like a traffic jam
or just piled up in the things fall off. The
mayonnaise is like tarring over the other ones. It's made
(13:46):
it worse. It's a headache. And I look in there
and I see that lazy Susan Marie, I get it,
thank you very much. She cool.
Speaker 2 (13:54):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 3 (13:57):
So yesterday you went jean shop.
Speaker 4 (14:00):
I'm in the process of getting rid of the skinny
jean which is no longer trendy or cool, getting them
all out of the wardrobe and replacing them with the
irregular fit which I've got on now, which is the
straight leg jean.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
The straight leg is the gene of the dad. Yep.
But also now you're a dad, you've got to have
you'll start to get. You got the quarter sort of
zip up fleece as well.
Speaker 4 (14:21):
It's the it's the gene of the youth as well,
because no one's doing skinny jean anymore.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
I don't know. I look around the young they're still
rocking skinny jeans.
Speaker 4 (14:29):
I know the skinny jeans are out that.
Speaker 3 (14:31):
Those are sensible genes, thank you very much. They are
like you're going to go and say, you know, do
some gardening or stuff like that, you know, go and
clean out the drains or something.
Speaker 4 (14:39):
So I put tried these on in the change room,
loved them when bored them.
Speaker 3 (14:43):
Do you mind if I ask what brand you're going
for what you're rocking.
Speaker 4 (14:45):
These are Levi's classic Levi's five on ones five fourteens
fit better, They do fit better. Yeah, okay, this is
the straight leg.
Speaker 3 (14:53):
Yes, straight leg. Yeah. It's sort of regular, isn't it.
The straight leg is a regular? Yes? Yeah.
Speaker 4 (14:57):
And they're still selling the skinny jeans. I wanted to
even know less people buying them because I know, between
you and me, they're out of style.
Speaker 3 (15:04):
Now, if that's what you need to tell us out
we all have these stories we until us have. It's okay, So.
Speaker 4 (15:12):
I left my skinny jeans that I took in there
in the change rooms because I don't need them anymore,
paid for these jeans and left me.
Speaker 3 (15:19):
No, we don't move on from that. What do you mean?
You try jeans on? Right, you're happy with them? I
just walk out with these, and I leave my old
jeans that my bum has been in, and my junk
and all that on the floor for someone else to touch.
Speaker 4 (15:31):
That's right. Yeah, I haven't snipped off the tags. Don't
you ever wear stuff out.
Speaker 3 (15:35):
Of the No, because I tell you what, I'm not
on the.
Speaker 4 (15:38):
Run, right, No, I didn't. I didn't think that was weird.
Do you not wear stuff out of the store.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
And they know no trainers I have done before?
Speaker 4 (15:48):
Were they? And they'll snip the tags for you And
you say thank you, but you did it for them. Well, no,
she snipped the tags off. What I didn't tell her
is that my old jeans were tucked in the horrible
surprise for somebody. Is that bad?
Speaker 3 (16:03):
Yes, you're actually saying, here, you pick up my mess
and a mess.
Speaker 4 (16:09):
Yeah, I guess it's a mess like.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
Somebody. I've never heard anyone just leaving their old clothes
in there.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
Well, joke was on me. By the time I got
back to my car, I realized my parking ticket was
in the pocket of my old Jane's.
Speaker 3 (16:22):
Calm, So what do you have to do? Go and
press that buzzer and try and hope for a human
to speak to I did.
Speaker 4 (16:29):
You shouldn't endorse this, but I ghosted out the person
in front of me. So as they're leaving you, you
tail behind them and you get under the barrier.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
What a day in the right of our friend.
Speaker 4 (16:41):
But Jack post, I was in dire situation.
Speaker 3 (16:45):
And you pay, They just go yeah, got a paystell.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
Yeah, but I was only there for fifteen minutes. In
the car park. I'm not going to pay for the daily.
Speaker 3 (16:54):
A loose life sometimes, so.
Speaker 4 (16:56):
Maybe I was on the run actually after all, And
I see my wardrobe.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
Clean the scene, so you've obviously done this before. I
think I have.
Speaker 4 (17:05):
I didn't know. It's so strange. Sometimes sometimes if I
buy new clothes, i'll wear it out, but take my
old clothes because I still want them. But if I
don't want them anymore, I'll just leave them in the change.
Don't see stuff just left in the changer.
Speaker 3 (17:17):
That's their stuff. That's their stuff. And they go and
then put it back out there, don't they They steam
it and they go. That's their stuff, not some random dudes.
Dirty old, dirty old jeans. He doesn't want anywhere. There's
a special bend for them.
Speaker 4 (17:31):
That's a good point. I just never really thought about.
Speaker 3 (17:34):
All right, Okay, okay, So Patsy, you ever heard anything
like this.
Speaker 4 (17:38):
No, I'm shocked.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
I haven't.
Speaker 5 (17:40):
You might take a five year old to get new shoes,
but you like them so much they want to.
Speaker 4 (17:44):
Wear them out of the I think I left shoes, clothes.
You've left sh sh No, No, no, what about jobs?
What's no? You can't you can't try try it on
jobs for anything I've tried on and I've like a
T shirt and I'm like, I like this new new
T shirt and I don't want the old one system
(18:06):
to deal with that, right, I just want to check
rio you ever done anything?
Speaker 3 (18:09):
I haven't, so I don't know whether it's just me.
It's shocking.
Speaker 4 (18:12):
No, I would never do that.
Speaker 3 (18:13):
All right? Do you know what I'm gonna I'm gonna
ask people who listen right now, has anyone ever done
this before? Where you've gone into the change room, you
like what you've tried on, you decide to walk out
and pay with it, but you'll leave your old clothes
on the floor them for them to pick up. Horrible
discovery for someone like.
Speaker 4 (18:31):
Country Road. The ones nothing against Country Road. They had
a good inn ease, but I had done with them.
Speaker 3 (18:38):
And by the way, some old pants of no. No,
basically you have said that it's unset, but it hanging
in the air that it's your business to chuck my
whole jeets. I've had a good run. Anyone ever done.
Speaker 2 (18:53):
This Christian Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
You may be surprised here that has been a very fair,
very big reaction. It's rare that whilst we're talking, people
are calling in just to say what the hell is
coming out of the speakers.
Speaker 4 (19:10):
The last five minutes has been a sobering experience to
see the reaction of everybody.
Speaker 3 (19:16):
So, if you just joined us, let's us rewind the
events of yesterday afternoon. A man, your friend, my friend,
Jack Post goes shopping for jeans, a common experience. He
likes his Levi's. He looks at his old levice on
the floor and thinks, I'll leave them there for somebody
else to clear up and get rid of. I'll walk
out of here.
Speaker 4 (19:35):
In these new genes, I thought it was more common
than I thought that you walk out with what you
try on. You try it on, you like it. Oh,
we're it out of the store.
Speaker 3 (19:44):
I've never heard of it, never heard of it. Christian.
I worked in retail years ago, and whilst tidying up,
I found a set of dentures in a pocket of
a men's dressing gown that a customer had returned. Oh
my god, the text are the text are one hundred percent?
What what? What? What? What?
Speaker 9 (20:03):
I want to know?
Speaker 5 (20:04):
How you so, so you got this shop assistant to
cut the tags? So is this a major department store
or like a literally.
Speaker 4 (20:17):
This is a DEFO in South Warf, so already defo
is a bit looser than a normal No.
Speaker 3 (20:23):
No, it's they still don't have to clear up other
people's closed.
Speaker 4 (20:28):
It has a warehouse. No no, no, everything's discount.
Speaker 3 (20:34):
But that doesn't mean that downgrade the stuff.
Speaker 4 (20:36):
But yes, I did. I had so I bought, tried
them on, went back into my jeans, went and paid
for them.
Speaker 5 (20:44):
You're wondering how you paid it?
Speaker 4 (20:45):
Do you mind cutting the tags off? I'm going to
wear them out of the store, and then went back,
went back into the change room, put the new jenes
On thought I don't need all.
Speaker 3 (20:54):
This test so many points where you could have had
the word here is awareness. Yeah, you kind of thought, actually,
to know what, I'll just put these odd ones in
this bag and I chuck them in the bin out
in the main concourse.
Speaker 4 (21:05):
There every question you're asking, like what do you think
they do with them? What are you doing? Are you crazy?
None of this crossed my mind, yes, say none of
it clearly, you know.
Speaker 3 (21:14):
And actually when I first heard about this again, I
pitched Now, you know, when you're just incredulous, that's just
like who would do this, and maybe what he says,
you know what, you just don't know. You don't know.
Maybe he's a thing here in Australia. Maybe I don't know.
I grew up a different way. I think I don't know. Uh.
This comes with Karen Christian evan of anybody doing what
(21:34):
Chac did, leaving its dirty clothes behind, inconsiderace of stuff
that to pick up after him. He's not five years
old for crying out loud. Any radio show that makes
you can't tell them going for crying out loud. Apart
from that, you're not you know, you are meant to
wash clothes before wearing them, to get rid of the
residue from the dice. That's not helped. That is our
problem about him. I'm wearing the blue balls today, whatever
(21:57):
LEVI nuts, I'm.
Speaker 4 (22:00):
Still wearing them today without washing them.
Speaker 3 (22:03):
Let's go to Kathy. Good morning, Kathy.
Speaker 1 (22:05):
Oh my god, I'm sitting here listening to this on
my way to work thinking what is wrong with you?
Speaker 4 (22:12):
Jack?
Speaker 1 (22:13):
You never fail seriously to amaze me at least once
a week. I am still looking for a support group
for what you did with that higher car.
Speaker 3 (22:26):
Said earlier. I went, I thought the higher car was
like you knew bottom of a bar, but who knew? No,
there's more levels of this, like donkey Kong. We're not
out final boss level of Jack yet.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
I mean, seriously, Jack, I don't care that you wore
the jeans out of the place, right, but at least
ask them for a bag so you can put your
old jens in it and take them home.
Speaker 3 (22:47):
Yeah, chuck them in another bit outside DFO.
Speaker 1 (22:50):
Honestly, what are you?
Speaker 4 (22:54):
This feels kind of like what an intervention must be,
like everybody everywhere you look, everyone.
Speaker 3 (23:00):
But what a grand scale want an entire city.
Speaker 1 (23:03):
I'm sorry, Jack, but I just sometimes think you need
your own segment.
Speaker 8 (23:07):
Forget about what are the odds?
Speaker 1 (23:09):
It's like, what the hell is Jack?
Speaker 3 (23:12):
What are the jacks?
Speaker 4 (23:16):
There's no sign on the door anywhere in there, anywhere
in there that says don't right, you're right, you're right?
Speaker 3 (23:23):
Yeah, yeah, Please don't steal stuff. You're right. You should
have more signage every that's the problem. Kathy, thank you
very much. Just got a Sharon now used to work
at kmart. Sharon, Good morning, guys.
Speaker 7 (23:33):
I understand where Jack is coming from.
Speaker 3 (23:36):
It happens more often than anybody realizes, So you worked
at Camar.
Speaker 10 (23:42):
I worked at kmart for about fifteen years.
Speaker 7 (23:45):
I've found jans shirts, jumpers, shoes, bathers, underwear.
Speaker 4 (23:52):
No, yeah, yeah, yeah, there's a segment of society we
didn't know that you weren't mental leave stuff behind.
Speaker 3 (23:58):
I'm going to cooll you Camar.
Speaker 4 (24:01):
No, no one, no one told us and there's no signs.
Speaker 3 (24:06):
But do you know what showing Last year I was
in my local kmart, right and uh, and I want
to try something on. The lady went, I'm afraid you can't.
There's been a problem in the males changing rooms. And
I went, what's that? She goes, well, surely, saying but
someone's doing And I went, oh my god, you don't
get that every day as she goes. You'd be surprised now,
(24:31):
Jacks thinking, actually, you know, I didn't mean to go
to toilet. Draw any parallels. Actually, do you know what now?
I know why you got with those jeans. I think
you've pulled your pants. No, because before the show you
had to run to the toilet. Pants. Yeah, there's a
little Mars bar in them.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
Christian Code Show podcast.
Speaker 3 (24:54):
Christian the last half hour show is left me wondering
if Jack grew up in a cult.
Speaker 4 (25:01):
The last time I felt this way, honestly, was when
I told you guys that I have some shells where
I don't soap and I just rinse with water, and
you guys were like, oh, we use soap every time,
And now I use soap every time because.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
There is learning. There is good learning. As an interstate
truck driver, there is a shower at a service station
that I use, and it must be designed for people
like Jack and actually has a sign on the wall
that says, please don't poop in the shower.
Speaker 4 (25:26):
I don't.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
You don't think it would need a sign, But apparently
people like Jack thinks there needs to be signs up
everywhere telling you how about.
Speaker 4 (25:34):
Okay stop, because now people who've just tuned in will
think the last half hours I've pooped somewhere.
Speaker 3 (25:40):
Certain percent didn't do that. All right, let's get into
this week's what are the odds?
Speaker 2 (25:45):
Believe it or not? What are the odds?
Speaker 4 (25:49):
You gotta be justhing me, like.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
Were you a Sheryl who married a hun who was weird?
Speaker 2 (25:59):
The sheryl.
Speaker 4 (26:02):
Married Hu as well.
Speaker 8 (26:05):
I was on the train going to the city.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
Does all this vacant land, and I'm thinking to myself,
imagine how many snakes would be here, no jokes. I
look up and there is a hawk carrying a tiger
snake in its clause.
Speaker 10 (26:18):
Flying backyard cricket on Christmas Day on baton Dad's bowlin.
I hit the ball in the air. I started running.
Ball bounced on top of my head, so I kept running.
I bounced on my head for a second time, and
the old man caught me.
Speaker 3 (26:28):
Yet.
Speaker 5 (26:29):
I want to make a drink, and it was like
a really clear glass, and I said that to myself.
Speaker 9 (26:33):
I said, wow, this should really a clear loss of water.
Speaker 10 (26:35):
The next lady that caught up, her name was clear Water.
Speaker 3 (26:40):
What are the odd Yes? Remember him? Morning, Christian the
team This week, I was driving to work and you
played on the show rock Set joy Ride. Add exactly
seven point thirty nine the lyrics song. The line was
a wonderful balloon and look what was right ahead of me,
almost landing on the highway. This is a photo attached
(27:02):
to the email of a big, wonderful balloon. While she's
listening to this part of the song, she sees a
wonderful balloon. What are the odds? Now sadly Particia. Katelyn
has one this morning and she's insisting I go to
(27:25):
her here. Excuse me, this is amazing. No, this is sometimes
the old QC quality control with a lot of your
content can be all over the place. You're either doing
with gold or poops.
Speaker 5 (27:40):
Okay, this is a fantastic story, so I go.
Speaker 1 (27:43):
I've been to quite a few weddings recently. The last
three weddings that I have been to, every single groom
has been called Tom.
Speaker 3 (27:57):
That's incading three on the belts.
Speaker 2 (28:04):
Thank you, thank you.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
Protect your Stories.
Speaker 2 (28:06):
Next, Christian O'Connell show Go on podcast.
Speaker 3 (28:11):
Welcome to this week's what are the Odds your stories
of coincidence and chance Christian I have or what are
the Odds? Is from Rosanna? Have you Rosanna? When I
got home from work yesterday afternoon, there was a Dashmund puppy,
we you know, the lost sausage John Dashmund puppy across
from my driveway, just walking on its own in the gutter,
(28:33):
so I stopped to make sure I didn't cross in
front of my car. I was on the phone with
my sister yesterday evening, who lives up on the Gold Coast,
and I was telling her the story, and she went,
oh my god, there was a dash and dog in
my driveway today as well. What are the odds? Double dashuns?
(28:55):
Thank you, Rosanna. What a story. One's a tree, two
is a miracle on the driveways of siblings. What a
time to be alive right now, Jade, good morning.
Speaker 7 (29:10):
What are the odds? I was fishing years ago with
my dad and lost a lure, which is a crime
punishable by death in our family usually. And anyway, he
rebaited my hook, put another lure on for me. We
were fishing all afternoon later that day. Didn't think anything
of the lost lure. Later that day we dropped off
(29:30):
all the fish we'd caught to an old Greek friend
of his that wanted it. He picked up the tab
a couple days later with a lure in it, and
I said, and he said, well, where that lure come from?
He said it was inside one of the fish. So
we had caught the same fish twice.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
Wow, that is amazing, double fish. You know that story
has come into folk law. Yeah?
Speaker 4 (30:02):
Is that what you're right?
Speaker 3 (30:03):
Yeah? You don't want to forget that folk look, use
it if you want next time. Tallant All right, Jay,
thank you very much, and guys, please never lose your law.
We really heard a lot about that. Kenny, good morning.
What are the odds? Kenny?
Speaker 8 (30:19):
What are the odds? Christian? We recently had someone come
to measure up our kitchen and we had to lock
the dog away and the cat's away, and eventually the
lady said, oh, look alike. Animals said, well, you want
to meet our dog. So we brought our dog out.
His name is Whisper. That's not a very common name.
And she looked at me and she said, oh my god,
we have a cat called Whisper. I said, oh wow,
(30:39):
that's interesting. We've got a cat too, who name is Gypsy.
And she said, oh my god, we have a dog
called Gypsy.
Speaker 3 (30:49):
The negative opposite.
Speaker 10 (30:50):
Yeah, yes, both names and whispers not very common.
Speaker 8 (30:54):
Everybody know it's our dog because of Whisper, but she's
got the same but in the opposite.
Speaker 3 (30:58):
And we were just like, that's skit, Gipsy Gypsy whispers.
Love it, Kenny, awesome one, Thank you very much, have
a good day and you thanks go on the show.
Speaker 2 (31:10):
Christian Connell Show Podcast.
Speaker 3 (31:12):
After hearing Jack's three odds on Gordon, well, I won't
say playing he's using a harmonica. What do we think
are the worst sounding instruments when someone's inexperienced in the
art of them.
Speaker 4 (31:28):
That one is hard to be for me at the moment,
like any other instrument at the moment, after now almost
one hundred hours since once a.
Speaker 3 (31:36):
Kid knows that you don't like something, they have an
instrument of torture. It's not an instrument of pleasure. Now
he knows that it's writing you up. That he will
just be doing that even more now.
Speaker 4 (31:46):
And I want to harness his creativity because you jammed together.
Speaker 3 (31:49):
You want him to be a buddy musician like you
can be in a band.
Speaker 4 (31:52):
But then sometimes like oh not again.
Speaker 5 (31:55):
Hey, but you know what, I'm sure when little Jackie
started playing the guitar that little Jackie didn't sound as
perfect as he does now. I'm sure you're PreO.
Speaker 3 (32:03):
I don't know if you've heard him recently. Gave the
graceive what exactly Hendrix is he with it?
Speaker 5 (32:09):
Everyone has to start somewhere.
Speaker 3 (32:10):
He didn't have a King Richard in his life? Did
he have?
Speaker 4 (32:13):
But the guitar is less offensive and less harsh.
Speaker 3 (32:15):
On the now? I agree? Yeah, it is that this
is the notes is shrilly, what do you think is
the worst musical instrument, pansy.
Speaker 5 (32:25):
Oh, my beard jack, because remember Audrey used to learn
the violin.
Speaker 4 (32:30):
This is what we had.
Speaker 3 (32:31):
This is worse. I'm sorry. This is far worse, isn't it. Oh? Yeah, yeah.
One of my daughters started to go through violences and
you feel quite worthy as a parent that you're raising
some sort of prodigy, right, and then you realize, after
the sort of fifth lesson, that you're forking out a
(32:52):
lot of good money for like this kid ain't going
to be joining the role Phenomonic Orchestra, all right. I
remember just snapping one afternoon when I was trying to
this and work, and there was this kind of noise
piercing my skull, and I just I'm up. It still
gets brought up now, you know, just so many good
stuff as a dam years and years and now they
always remember your worst moments when that rare time, it's
(33:13):
about three times on I went, as long was it
going to go out? I think it was just a
primal scream. It wasn't even at the kids. It was
just too whatever, gods are out there, much longer? Must
I take this gone? For taking noise.
Speaker 4 (33:29):
And this just gets worse and worse.
Speaker 3 (33:30):
For I actually gets up for the ye oh, they
start going through the.
Speaker 5 (33:37):
So good when you've been up since three ayears in
the afternoon.
Speaker 3 (33:41):
Also, I would say one of the all time worst ones.
It is the humble recorder that like dribbling into it
as well. It's just that this sound of the recorder.
Speaker 4 (33:58):
Barely an instrument.
Speaker 3 (33:59):
Yeah, when over the next couple of years, you will
have to go to some musical assemblies, right and you
you better start practicing that face because you can't turn
up with that post face we see when we know, well,
when you don't like something, you have to be grinning
and it's real hard. No, no, no, but it will test that.
Start practicing that face right now. Okay, get in front
(34:19):
of the mirror because you have to say going this.
Oh bless these young tackers, these little rippers as they
blow and sort of wheeze into various instruments a whole
they'd be like twenty kids blowing on these black an
hour and you're at the ends. You're meant between every song,
oh my, oh my god, that's so good.
Speaker 2 (34:38):
Christian O'Connell show on podcast.
Speaker 3 (34:42):
We're too much worse musical instruments to learn Christian. My
daughter is learning the flute. Oh wow again, what are
these woodwind instruments? Yeah, it's the woodwind section, isn't it?
You know? Unforgiving for the amateur and anyone around that
amateurs all my daughter was the flute. At least that's
what I was paying for. It sounded like cat's screaming
(35:05):
in a room for three awful musts. She she had
before she lost it on the school bus. Sadly brackets,
Gladly it was never found. That's from Mary. Was it
lost to that? You just been it? My younger sister,
My younger sister, Jemi crazy learns to play ode to
Joy on her table MIDI keyboard over and over and
(35:29):
over and over and over. I don't think she'd learned
any other song. I gotta be honest. Anyone actually know
what joy is? How's it?
Speaker 5 (35:37):
Go's?
Speaker 3 (35:38):
Oh? What is it?
Speaker 4 (35:40):
Bump bump bump bump bum.
Speaker 3 (35:48):
No, I don't know. I went off somewhere else. I
was just doing like a little bit of a noodling.
Speaker 4 (35:52):
At the side. Famous classical songs of all time?
Speaker 3 (35:57):
Lucky can you get some of to Joy and put
it on? Drops? I need to be familiarized last week.
What was it him we were talk about last week
week at the moment Him was a coming to us.
They're going to get confused with the Christian of the show.
There's now arrival to the Late FM.
Speaker 4 (36:15):
Ojoy is from Symphony number nine by my God. Meg.
Speaker 3 (36:20):
Welcome to the show, morning, Christian.
Speaker 1 (36:22):
How are you.
Speaker 3 (36:23):
I'm good Meg, So tell me your story.
Speaker 6 (36:26):
My son was in a back grade two. He obviously
the whole school thing you learn, the recorder. He would
just run around just blowing into it the whole five like,
no songs, no tunes, nothing, just being an annoying kid.
And he took it to school and apparently he would
sit in school and just blow on it all during class.
The teachers sent it home in pieces. Take to a
(36:48):
piece of paper saying Joel is never to play this again.
Speaker 3 (36:54):
An intervention a recorder that is incredible in my mind.
When you say in pieces, I mean someone stabs on it,
some angry teacher has snapped.
Speaker 6 (37:05):
I think it was in three pieces. Reported break it
into three pieces.
Speaker 3 (37:08):
Yeah, yeah, Med, great story, Thank you very much to
call on the show.
Speaker 2 (37:12):
Mate, No problem, great Jake, Christian O'Connell show go on podcast.
Speaker 3 (37:18):
Christian O'Connell's show and talking about kids learning musical instruments
and the noise the pain. Christian my father said to me,
I could learn to play any musical instrument I wanted,
as long as I just plug the headphones in. Ironically,
I ended up playing the church organ to practice at
over one of those. So she got one in the
backyard or something there massive those big old pipes on
them and stuff like that. Christian in brackets center or
(37:45):
a drum kit for my now eight year old a
couple of years ago, and she'd had on a Christmas
list for years. When she plays it, it is awful.
She refused to have any lessons. Come on, come on,
you got to meet us halfway. Kids, She refused to
have any lessons, like animal from them up. It's just
banging the skins. It was pure torture. Then the ten
(38:06):
year old and three year old all yell at her
to stop. It's so bad. So I have two kids
screaming and the other kid on a drum kit trying
to match the screams to the other two kids. It's
enough to plunge a perry, menopausal woman of three into
further insanity, Cassie, we hear your pain. That is awful Christian.
Back in the eighties, it was a different time. My
(38:27):
brother bought a violin home from school to learn. This
went on for a couple of years and it gradually
got on my mum's nerves. She was a shift worker,
did two weeks of nights, two weeks of date. So
when one day she was sleeping in the afternoon, just
got out of bed, picked up the violin, opened the
front door, threw it out and then stamped on it.
End of violce all right, let's do her Late to
(38:50):
the Party. Late Late to the Party is your home
on this show for your emails. Often during the show
you're too busy to actually get involved with the show,
but you still want to have your say. It's called
Lates la Party. It can be weeks, months, even years later.
Catching up with all the old shows on the podcast
(39:11):
of the almost last seven years, you can find them
on the free iHeart platform. First email today from Late
to the Party comes from Jane Question. In January, I
was at the Australian Open. My friend went to the
toilet and a man was sitting beside me and his
name was Bobby and he was American. We got chatting
and I found it he's been living here for five years.
But he said, hen't I doesn't understand footy AFL. I
(39:33):
told her, look, you actually need to go with someone
who can answer your questions real time, long story shot.
I said, do you know what I'll take you?
Speaker 4 (39:40):
That's a huge favour.
Speaker 3 (39:41):
Finally we went to the Collingwood game. He boys brother
in law, fresh from the USA, with zero clues about AFL,
neither of them. They loved it. Lots of questions. This
was me in my early days of trying to work
out this mysterious game. Who are the people in purple?
They bring out the water? Can they change the direction
of a goal attempt and tell put through with their hands? No?
(40:01):
How long is e mcg? How far are they running
a game? My friend and I dip them out in
Collinwood scarfs. They've become instant fans. They wanted all the march.
The next day Bobby texted me to say they had
an amazing time. I just want to share how love
it was to share our great game with them. They
now become AFL fans. That's from Jane. That's a love
(40:23):
email and good only Jane for doing that as well.
And you're right, anyone who's who moves this country and
Melbourne tries to learn about the game, you can't do
it on TV. I remember going to so many games
and just being I must have been such a pain
in the backside to people I didn't even know next
to me, going why is that happening? And then you'd
hear this a lot. I don't need to worry about that.
Speaker 4 (40:41):
Bit, wasn't any Lee, one of your early chaperone tried.
Speaker 3 (40:45):
To get me to bear a Blues fan, And this
is in twenty seventeen, the year before we actually decided
to move here, and all our remember is just how
Andy's like an effervescent personalities and he's a lovely joyce man.
After that Blues game they'd lost, I didn't they spoilerer
they normally do. There was a change in and whatever
(41:05):
this team is, I will not be found. It was
an early lesson, but I remember even Hay getting slightly
irritated by the third quarter of this and he went,
just just watch it for a bit, talking the words
of what we used now to stop talking pomps.
