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

Speaker 2 (00:27):
It's the team.

Speaker 1 (00:27):
You're going to have to help me out here.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
I watched the cricket the Ashes on day one, and
then I slipped into a coma. I think it was
so excited that we're going to smash you guys, and
the Veda has woken up. So I presume England one. Yeah, Well,
it just tell me what happened. We must have smashed
you guys, because Friday night it was all in England's favorite,
so I presume that would have carried on, no reason
for it not to.

Speaker 4 (00:49):
Yeah, I mean at three o'clock, you guys would definitely
definitely yeah.

Speaker 1 (00:53):
So I've been in a coma since Friday night.

Speaker 2 (00:56):
England won by how many wickets? I don't know how
to give it to me straight, guys, And it must
be awkward for you to say congratulations, because.

Speaker 1 (01:06):
There's no way we would have.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
Just the only word I keep seeing over the weekend
is capitulation. I've never said the word in my life,
but it's the only word to sum up England's humiliate.

Speaker 5 (01:17):
There were nine England wickets in ninety nine balls.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
Just incredible.

Speaker 2 (01:21):
Yeah, I've never seen you ever go first of all
world in Australia. Amazing stuff, just on all counts. But
I don't think i've seen anything so traumatic. Friday was wild. Yeah,
Friday was crazy and I felt like the whole series
in one day. Yes, yeah, yeah, the Game of Thrones,
all of Game of Thrones in one day. It was
just wild. So we're winning now, yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:43):
But you were in an unassailable position at three o'clock.
I was complete despair. I was like, well, there's no
way we care.

Speaker 1 (01:49):
I presume there. It's going to night Ben Stokes.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
Yes, by Saturday morning, wait King Charles up if he's
not watching it already. And then Saturday was another just
a wild, wild run.

Speaker 1 (02:00):
Yeah, it was over so quickly.

Speaker 4 (02:02):
It was like you went from being in an actually
completely unbeatable position to losing by this so much.

Speaker 2 (02:09):
So much, so much, so much at that level, and
also happens there's such a long gap in between.

Speaker 1 (02:15):
It's a really big deal. It's huge.

Speaker 2 (02:18):
Now it's supposed to be twenty five days at cricket,
which you're lucky.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
No, I can't. I don't know how England come back.

Speaker 2 (02:26):
No, I think I think that's not that really just
sho psychologically does How could it not? It's such it's
such global humiliation. I'm telling you now, I've seen all
the newspaper headlines here. That's nothing compared to how bad
it is in the UK. It's awful.

Speaker 4 (02:41):
You guys are savage. I saw some of those as well.
They did a wrap.

Speaker 2 (02:44):
Actually they've been trying to get citizenship here, trying to
find jobs in the BBL.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
Lower batters, lower batters. You know it's Morgan is blowing up.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
His timeline was amazing, Well, we're going to win this
four nil to then demanding people get fired, the five
stages of grief.

Speaker 6 (03:03):
Yes, all in one beautiful tweet page.

Speaker 2 (03:06):
It must have been amazing for an Australian to watch.

Speaker 6 (03:09):
It was.

Speaker 2 (03:10):
It was the one, the one of the best openings
to anything you've seen before.

Speaker 4 (03:14):
Definitely the best, probably the best two hours of cricket,
or maybe I guess four hours of cricket that I've
ever seen. It was just so thrilling everything went our way,
and then that to see Travis head, Oh my god, wait, come,
And he wasn't supposed to open the batting No, And
then there.

Speaker 2 (03:27):
Was that last minute decision that it's amazing those chances
because if you don't make that call, I don't think
it goes the way it did.

Speaker 4 (03:35):
Yeah, and it wasn't like some grand plan. It's just
that Kowaja was out injured. Who's next that guy? Sure
he's done now, right? He looks ancient.

Speaker 2 (03:44):
The poor man around the poor man. It's every couple
of years. Yes, it's a really big deal. He takes
part in a golf tournament the day before and the
day before that and the day before that, and then
it's not mine. Screwedge.

Speaker 6 (04:00):
He was hobbling around.

Speaker 2 (04:03):
You get that one, I'll get the next one.

Speaker 1 (04:05):
Okay, get the dank running. He's also going to tile
on the way to So if it's like the big thing,
it's the ashes.

Speaker 2 (04:16):
You're not You're not playing eighteen holes a day before
where in teen hours?

Speaker 1 (04:21):
Sure do you do? Wasn't there the story years ago?

Speaker 2 (04:23):
But Clem Maxwell falling out of a golf cart. That's
Glen Maxwell.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
He does that. That's not news.

Speaker 3 (04:32):
The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
In every Sunday night, mimodad chat. It's never not been
like that since I moved to every Sunday night. Called
him yesterday. He's not picked up.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
That's what England.

Speaker 2 (04:44):
He doesn't want to speak to anyone in Australia. It's
tore my family apart. England's shame on you. You've broken
a seventy six year old man's heart. No, he's feeling
the effects of a capitulation. I don't really, I don't
even know what the real meaning of that word is.
Is it an instant collapse or.

Speaker 6 (05:04):
Yeah, falling in a heap?

Speaker 4 (05:06):
In a humiliating and completely eetic and embarrassing.

Speaker 2 (05:10):
Have any of us ever used I get a rheo?
Have any of us ever used that word elsewhere the lives?
I've never used that word.

Speaker 1 (05:17):
I had an awful weekend.

Speaker 2 (05:19):
I just Saturday night, not too much to drink. I
just capitulated and that to put me in an.

Speaker 6 (05:23):
Uber But it's not dramatic enough to roll a capitulation.

Speaker 1 (05:28):
Patsy, how was your weekend? What did you get up
to camera?

Speaker 7 (05:30):
I learned the very hard way that I should be
reading instructions. I don't always I think I know better
than the instructions on the.

Speaker 8 (05:40):
Back of a box.

Speaker 7 (05:41):
I had a sore back and I realized we had
in our covered some of those thermal thermal patches the pain.
I've never used them before anyway, I thought, you know what,
that might.

Speaker 8 (05:52):
Just do the trick.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
So you send some to Quadra.

Speaker 6 (05:57):
Like an entire body, shout out to.

Speaker 2 (05:59):
Chemist's warehouse if they could rush some back of it,
because someone not just throwing.

Speaker 1 (06:05):
Them out there a bit.

Speaker 7 (06:10):
So I thought, I'll use this, and it's pretty easy.
It looks like a big band aid. I thought you'd
peel off the thing and just whack it straight on
the skin. Anyway, So I put it on my back
and Audrey saw me, my teenager saw me, and she goes, no, mum,
you're not meant to do it like right on the skin.
It's meant apparently it's meant to.

Speaker 8 (06:27):
Go over clothes, apparently to like get the heat.

Speaker 1 (06:32):
No, I don't think that's true. No, I put it
straight on.

Speaker 8 (06:36):
Have you tried taking one of those things off?

Speaker 1 (06:39):
Are you going to go in the shower?

Speaker 6 (06:40):
Oh?

Speaker 8 (06:41):
Is that what you're meant to do?

Speaker 2 (06:42):
Well?

Speaker 1 (06:42):
I didn't know. Again, I've I never read the back,
but I'm alive. Just so. No, I just went in
the shower.

Speaker 8 (06:50):
Oh well, that's what I should have.

Speaker 2 (06:51):
I don't want to come because I have to be
on so strong because you're walking around that area of
the human body in the back and that and so no,
you've got to you've got to be in the hot
shower and to peel it off.

Speaker 1 (07:00):
It's agony. Well I didn't, but you can tick it
off as a waxing as well.

Speaker 2 (07:04):
It was.

Speaker 8 (07:04):
It took about two layers of skin off my back.

Speaker 1 (07:07):
Yeah, that brutal is horrible.

Speaker 7 (07:10):
I'm sure they're great, but I really should have read
the instructions because yeah, I've got this big red sort
of mark across my bag.

Speaker 2 (07:18):
I tell you, someone who's not right physically today, what
is going on with your face? And you have botops
this whole lip fitter?

Speaker 6 (07:26):
I okay, and this is.

Speaker 2 (07:27):
That you're doing an impression, a racist impression of a
nerd or something.

Speaker 6 (07:33):
It's so much.

Speaker 2 (07:35):
Get Jagger, what's going on?

Speaker 1 (07:37):
Lips like Jagger?

Speaker 4 (07:38):
I'm going to be speaking with the weird. It's really
hard to speak. I've got a I bit my lip
on the left side of my mouth really badly, and
so I've.

Speaker 6 (07:46):
Got these two huge ulcers.

Speaker 1 (07:48):
Right like craters in your mouth, and I've.

Speaker 4 (07:52):
Got a bonus one under my tongue on the left side.
Now I'm only I'm like talking like Popeye, only about
the right side of my mouth.

Speaker 2 (08:00):
Okay, And we've only got three hours of radio to am.
I filming a TV advert tomorrow, I know. And that's
what I'm talking being deranged fan. TV mann.

Speaker 8 (08:15):
Dongella that you put for babies results.

Speaker 2 (08:18):
So it's hard to understand.

Speaker 9 (08:19):
Said, I've brought let's get here to read out classic
speeches and the listeners have to guess what And let's
call Himonngella boy is actually's day in the month.

Speaker 3 (08:34):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 1 (08:37):
You know I love you?

Speaker 2 (08:38):
Tina works on the showy No, She's always banged on about.

Speaker 1 (08:42):
F one's my thing. I love F one. I'm here
if you ever need someone on a go to me.
And everyone thinking, all right, in a minute, come on,
try and explain to us.

Speaker 2 (08:49):
Then why Oscar got bands from the Vegas Grand Prix said.

Speaker 1 (08:55):
I've never heard of so dramatic. I don't know anything
about it. Why he got banned? I think someone to
do it like a skid thickness. No, I don't know.
She said I could. Who can eat? And then she
goes to me. I think it's English cheating.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
Him on a knife edge. I could capitulate by seven
o'clock plaps after just one hour of batsy.

Speaker 1 (09:26):
What's happened?

Speaker 5 (09:27):
So there are skids underneath the cars, or they call planks,
and they have to be less than nine millimeters thick.

Speaker 1 (09:33):
So if they are judged to be less.

Speaker 5 (09:35):
Than nine milimeters thick, it's giving the car an advantage
because it's lower to the ground. So the car, if
the car is low to the ground, it gives it
an unfair advantage, so.

Speaker 1 (09:43):
A less coefficient drag.

Speaker 5 (09:46):
Yes, so Lockie's given me the thumbs up in there
the biggest f one fan on the planet. So I
think I've done okay with that explanation. Yes, he's not.

Speaker 2 (09:53):
So you're telling me that all the cars are measured
to that degree before they race.

Speaker 1 (09:58):
Yes, exactly right.

Speaker 5 (09:59):
And if I think theirs was judged to be like
eight point eight millimeters, so slightly thinner than the nine
millimeters recording, this.

Speaker 1 (10:06):
Is cheating or.

Speaker 2 (10:09):
Get some sandpaper out trying to steal it from our
innocent sweet by Lando why don't name as well?

Speaker 1 (10:16):
Nothing can be more English?

Speaker 2 (10:18):
Well, first of all than Ben Stokes, but then Lando Norris.
It's like a Star Wars character Christian advice Rio and
his mouth. Also, you are in a lot of pain.

Speaker 6 (10:31):
It actually is excruciating to talk O God.

Speaker 1 (10:34):
And if only you didn't have a job that does
actually buire it like a lot.

Speaker 6 (10:37):
It's the biggest part of it.

Speaker 2 (10:41):
Because the other guy was.

Speaker 1 (10:44):
Confused.

Speaker 2 (10:45):
Anyway, I think this is house stress. I warned you
Friday you were getting into a brave new territory now,
but it starts to affect your emotional health.

Speaker 1 (10:58):
You're picking up the keys. You've only got the keys.
You get the keys today.

Speaker 2 (11:01):
And you have settlement day to base covered in ulcerating sauce.

Speaker 6 (11:05):
Yeah, it has, and it's been a very stressful.

Speaker 2 (11:07):
I didn't think about that mouth.

Speaker 1 (11:09):
Ulsters are normally stress.

Speaker 2 (11:10):
Someone has come up with a good fix, though, Christian
telling her to have a baroka and then apply vegemite
to the ulcers.

Speaker 1 (11:18):
I've never heard of that one.

Speaker 2 (11:19):
I know you love veget taste horrible like an orange,
and then fierce the east.

Speaker 6 (11:27):
What's worse though, Yeah, I'll give it a look.

Speaker 1 (11:29):
I'll try it, kat and you got your hand up.

Speaker 8 (11:31):
Absolutely. I've had mouths aultors ulcers.

Speaker 2 (11:35):
She just got one immediately. Katie is one of those tops,
isn't it. He's got you've got a mouth ulser. You're
getting a bit of a tension.

Speaker 1 (11:41):
I had the worst. I had a mouth hulser so
big was on.

Speaker 2 (11:44):
My eyes.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
Because it's got salt in it.

Speaker 8 (11:52):
So salt, yes, it really really helps, just clean the wounds.

Speaker 2 (11:55):
Why can't you just use We're out that revolting yeast
muck you love here?

Speaker 1 (11:59):
Why can't you to have a salt gargle?

Speaker 3 (12:02):
Yeah, but this is where it like actually sits on
there for long.

Speaker 1 (12:05):
So you're bluying a paste.

Speaker 3 (12:06):
You're a paste.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
Yeah, I presume we have some.

Speaker 6 (12:10):
Yeah, there's some vegimind there's some vegimin in the covert.

Speaker 1 (12:12):
And the news apply that. Now.

Speaker 2 (12:14):
Over the weekend, I've been home alone and so I
thought I should go out at some point. So I
haven't a lot of human contact over last coup, and
I was why. I was enjoying it too much, and
so I thought I need to go out. So I
booked to have dinner by myself Saturday night, and I thought,
you know you often see this the restaurant.

Speaker 1 (12:32):
Well, it was a pub.

Speaker 2 (12:33):
I was going to rang me and now beforehand, going oh,
you've got a reservation for one? Did you mean more?

Speaker 1 (12:40):
People don't want me being in the bus out?

Speaker 2 (12:44):
No, no, no, no, it's just a couple of weeks ago.
So one booked at table for one and there was
ten of them. I forgot to put the seer it.
It was a major problem.

Speaker 1 (12:55):
No, no, no, it is just once. I would love to
have you there.

Speaker 2 (12:58):
Oh I had a pub.

Speaker 1 (13:01):
It was a terrible mistake. I got my book out
and people are like, there's like families, everyone stop company. Yeah, yeah,
why you just stay at home?

Speaker 2 (13:10):
And it's in public, and so I was surrounded by families.
I could see people looking at me, and it constantly
they kept saying, and so is somebody else.

Speaker 6 (13:21):
You're going to use this, change the manager.

Speaker 1 (13:22):
Because I've been there before. When eating alone tonight.

Speaker 2 (13:26):

He's got a book with him as well. Anyway, so
last night it was takeaway. Sunday night was takeaway okay,

hundred and twenty million. Well I lost hundred dollars. How
did it go if I won nine hundred million.

I saw it, Alex, I saw at least.

Speaker 6 (20:04):
It wasn't as bad as nineteen twenty one.

Speaker 2 (20:06):
Yeah, remember those days that it was tough doing that
radio show Pray for the nineteen twenties loss.

Speaker 1 (20:14):
So asking your songs for the Ashes?

Speaker 2 (20:16):
Oh four seven five three one oh four three, Chris
Is just hit me hard with when when palms cry?

Speaker 1 (20:22):
Great God? All right, so keep this coming.

Speaker 2 (20:25):
Oh four seven five three one oh four three songs
for the Ashes. After the two day capitulation, I have
got the most incredible story of I would I describe
this and every day OSSI hero that I had to
drag out this guy Saturday, eight night. So I'm in
an uber and I'm going to this pub to dinner,
right And as we're going into a pub car park,

(20:47):
I said to him, I'll jump out here that otherwise
it's going to be a nightmare for you getting out.

Speaker 1 (20:51):
And he goes, oh, don't worry, an I want. It's
late sixties, let's.

Speaker 2 (20:54):
Call him m. He goes, O, I don't worry, I want.
I want, due to an unforeseen circumstances to take control
of a greyhound bus and I did a thirteen point
turn in an emergency and I go, oh, right, are
you a bus driver?

Speaker 1 (21:08):
He goes, And then I go, oh, what happened?

Speaker 2 (21:11):
He goes, Oh, it's quite a story, and don't you
need to get out now? And no, no, no, tell me
what happened. So he's on a greyhound bus right going
from Adelaide to Melbourne. Because this guy M is First
Aid trained level three, so he's a high level first AIDA.

Speaker 1 (21:27):
That's not his job he works. He used to work
for the.

Speaker 2 (21:29):
Government okay, in the family law division, but anyway, he's
the first AIDA. The driver he can see isn't very well.
So EM gets up and says, hey you okay, what's
going on? The driver starts to tal him and EM says,
I think you're having a heart attack, and so he
says pull over. So I said, now on fine, I'm
just feeling it, but he goes, no, I think THEO
says you need to put over right now, pulls over

(21:50):
and then things get a lot worse.

Speaker 1 (21:51):
He is having a heart attack.

Speaker 2 (21:53):
So because he's first day trained, he managed to sort of,
you know, start to know what to do. They're in
triple zero and they go where are they'd given location?
It goes going to take us a little while to
get there. M decides that he will drive the greyhound
to towards the hospital. Right He's got a bus license
that he's never used just for hits and giggles.

Speaker 1 (22:14):
He thought he'd take on passes. Now might never have
to use that one.

Speaker 2 (22:16):
Then there's a big difference between a bus and a
greyhound coach, so he had to Suddenly he's doing the
right thing. He's stepping up as an everyday leader in
a desperate situation. He then realizes these are really big
I don't know how to They've got to turn it
to go towards the hospital. He had to do a
thirteen point turn driving this greyhound coach towards the hospital

(22:39):
and the ambulance crew were talking on the phone to
somebody else to say if we can meet you halfway
and gave them the location. Wow, so they do. He
hands them over to the ambos. They saved this guy's
life really thanks to M's quick decisions. The fact that
he was someone who had, you know, basic first aid
isn't an incredible story. I'd have drawed out this guy am.

Speaker 1 (23:00):
I said, that is an incredible story.

Speaker 2 (23:01):
I said to what happened, and he goes why I
got a letter of a commendation from the Greyhound bus company.

Speaker 6 (23:08):
It's going to be from the mayor or something.

Speaker 2 (23:12):
But it really made me think how many people would
be alive if we knew basic first aid. I almost
think it should be part of like even taking any
driver's test or something like that. Where it really made
We've said this before, but now I haven't listened to
his story, and that I wouldn't know what to do
desperate situation which could happen any moment in our lives,
but I'd like to I think that we as a

(23:32):
team should commit in the next couple of weeks to
learning basic first aid.

Speaker 1 (23:36):
It's actually even here now. Do you even know where
the DEFIP thing is now?

Speaker 2 (23:41):
Yes?

Speaker 6 (23:42):
I think it is near the toilet, but I don't
know for sure. We don't know how to use it. No, No,
I wouldn't have the first clear.

Speaker 1 (23:50):
None of them moment. No, we need to have put
one incredible story.

Speaker 1 (33:36):
We were extremely gobsmacks. What a great phrase. Extremely gobsmacked at.

Speaker 2 (33:41):
The fact we're watching our ships stayed away. The port
authorities in those days took us out to the ship
to try and board.

Why did you with those pilots when they come in.

Speaker 2 (33:52):
Port Philip Bay? But the sea was too rough. The

(34:44):
discovered crocodiles were lurking nearby, closing on us, and had
our pre boats accommodation flood before arrival Swags. It was
again with prawns off the eski for dinner. Out on
the boat we battled wind, waitwells just to reach a
calm protected beach. One day later, our sun tested positive
for COVID after dodging it for two years, ending all
snorkeling vans.

Speaker 2 (50:36):
Because I'm a kind person, because I'm a generous person,
I am aware that obviously for Australian cricket fans incredible.
Today is a joyous day. Yes, there is a joyous day.
I'm sure Saturday was a joyous day as well. It
must be nice to have joy's days about cricket. Also,
I don't know when they're coming back. I don't know
when they'll be coming back. I don't think it's going
to be over the next six weeks. Spoiler alert. One

(50:58):
thing we all know it ain't going to be twenty
five days of cricket. I think it's going to be
done a lot quicker, a lot quicker. Anyway, this made
for you with the incredible, incredible Travis over the weekend.

Speaker 1 (51:12):
Now is this right now gonna have?

Speaker 2 (51:14):
Isn't amazing how last week might have been playing today
suddenly a world where he's getting a statue, Just in
one weekend he's getting a statue. Isn't that it makes you
will to.

Speaker 1 (51:25):
Live in where everything can change in a moment, Jake.

Speaker 2 (51:28):
Weather or Well? The question is who will he be opening?
Travis work from it tras control traves here two sharp cat.

Speaker 6 (51:47):
Boundary crunch. If we're chasing that one that has been
met back to.

Speaker 4 (51:54):
Back boundaries, this time it is full three boundaries. The
three balls off big stoves opens and just splashed a
little white with arrogance to his head.

Speaker 6 (52:08):
He gets inside it, touches it far.

Speaker 1 (52:10):
Atop the head.

Speaker 11 (52:19):
Guard it.

Speaker 6 (52:21):
It gets a hundred short, just sixty nine downs.

Speaker 2 (52:26):
But I was so sways head.

Speaker 1 (52:30):
It's incredible.

Speaker 2 (52:30):
I love the bit where he's just such a chilled
out cat, isn't he just yells get over. It is
like the most laid back person, like he's unaware. It's
the ashes that he's out there playing.

Speaker 3 (52:42):
Well.

Speaker 4 (52:42):
Years after the match, they were interviewing him and they go, oh,
you know what we feeling before?

Speaker 6 (52:46):
He is, Oh, I just thought, you know, just hit
out there, give it a crack. Okay, just go ahead.

Speaker 2 (52:51):
I think I'll find him mesmerizing. It's got like some
sort of zend like buddher calm.

Speaker 6 (52:55):
Yes, he's got like bogue, like a Bogan Buddha.

Speaker 2 (52:59):
That's why he should have a statue and we worship
about him because we've become more like Trev can start
a movement.

Speaker 6 (53:07):
Some mindfulness is Rubbi's belly for good luck.

Speaker 2 (53:10):
Okay that's too much mate, all right, but listen that's
your version. It's great news. It's wonderful for me. This
is now something I actually just don't want to talk about,
but really hard. When you are in Australia doing an
Australian radio breakfast show, we want to talk. You go

(53:31):
to get with the program, but I think in your
lives right now, there's probably something you don't want to
talk about. For me, it's a cricket and the ashes rio.
I'm getting it's something to do with the house. It's
been a stress or run up to getting the key
today for you, your first ever home. Congratulations, by the way,
I hope it goes all well today.

Speaker 6 (53:50):
Me too, Me too. We're settling today.

Speaker 4 (53:52):
Yeah, one thing we haven't brought up without talking my
parents on the phone last night. I do want to
talk about it because we're a bit embarrassed that we
did realize the house actually has three green ceilings.

Speaker 1 (54:04):
Why the ceiling is great.

Speaker 6 (54:06):
We didn't notice the morning. We've noticed the pink walls
one of them.

Speaker 1 (54:09):
Oh my god, that's a riot colors, isn't it. Weren't
we in Miami or something?

Speaker 6 (54:13):
But I guess we never looked up.

Speaker 2 (54:15):
What so three you look up?

Speaker 1 (54:18):
This is probably your generation. You don't look up looking
down at your phones.

Speaker 4 (54:23):
But there's the bedroom, the spare bedroom, and like the
study kind of room.

Speaker 6 (54:27):
All have these really yellow fluorescent broad green.

Speaker 1 (54:32):
That's going to be changed. That's that's that's what you'll
be doing the new year.

Speaker 6 (54:35):
How do you even get up that highest?

Speaker 1 (54:38):
That's what they thought. No, I think the previous sod it.

Speaker 2 (54:40):
We're going to sell it.

Speaker 1 (54:41):
Next year, just leave it. I get now it's your problem.

Speaker 6 (54:46):
And we were like, well check the photos. Wheel was like,
there's no were.

Speaker 2 (54:49):
They like that when we walked through them, and they
they just did it once they sold it.

Speaker 1 (54:54):
That's just some pranes. You know what pain that is
as well?

Speaker 6 (55:00):
Yeah, I think we're just gonna live with the green
ceilings for it.

Speaker 2 (55:03):
But that's a riot, though, isn't it when you go
to bed seeing that it's nick I know who has
green ceilings?

Speaker 1 (55:10):
I don't know.

Speaker 2 (55:11):
I just presumed all ceilings in the homes are mutual
kind of.

Speaker 4 (55:15):
Yes, yeah, yeah, no, bright green, bright lime.

Speaker 6 (55:19):
Fluorescent green.

Speaker 1 (55:20):
Where the hippies or something? No, I don't know.

Speaker 6 (55:22):
They seemed one of them was an architect, but oh
he should know. Maybe I don't know. I don't know.
It's a very it's like an assault on the eyes.

Speaker 2 (55:31):
There's no way you're just going to leave that. You're
saying that now you won't. It will drive you mad.
I guarantee within five nights there, your first five nights,
you guys are down Bunnings again. That it's a painting
is hard work, right, It's really hard work. It's it's
you don't realize how exhausting it is, or that twisting
and that. The worst thing though, is getting that. You
have to get a doubler. It's one bit of poll

(55:53):
scows into another and do this. They shouldound them in
Gym's right forty five, Like, just just do that ten
minutes and that then you move on to the pull ups.

Speaker 1 (56:02):
It's aconizing.
