Speaker 2 (00:18):
Got anything good?

Speaker 3 (00:19):
Hey, this is the Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

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

Speaker 4 (00:28):
Thank you, Patsy, thank you he has made it weird
that great to be welcome to the weekend. That's I
think that's an appropriate response.

Speaker 5 (00:39):
Thank you. Yeah, do I throw it back to you.

Speaker 1 (00:41):
Welcome here, Seemple, say Chanks, Alex, Happy Friday. We're going
to be okay today. The shark is in the water already.
Can I just say the shark in the water? All right?
The first half hour it'll be down a Friday. We
go around the team. We call it double thumbs up
and the things that we're enjoying this week. Warning, Warning, warning,

(01:04):
Patsy has brought a physical item, a prop.

Speaker 5 (01:08):
It's always thumb nah, is it?

Speaker 1 (01:10):
I actually think of it the opposite way, all right?
Two from me. Last week I was talking about Hama
why wife loves sci Fi, and so we'd start to
watch Foundation, and I wasn't sure if it was getting
to get any better. It was gobbledygook about Starlock's Terminus
and eighty seven other planets and soda symptems. I couldn't
keep up with it all. A lot of you text
in saying, stay with it. It's brilliant and we have

(01:30):
stuck it out. It's awesome.

Speaker 5 (01:32):
Oh and you understand it.

Speaker 4 (01:33):
I do.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
Well. No, neither my wife or I understand it. But
we're okay now. In ignorance, actually, I think is one
of the ten steps to enlightenment is actually just admitting
we know nothing, but being happy in that. But no,
very very good. And the other thing that is back
season two of the Terminal lists on Prime. Oh my god.

(01:53):
Chris Prout, Stearne, Taylor Kitsch starred in the first season,
which was really really good. Second season is even better.
There's no Chris Pratt. He's obviously doing Jurassic Park. So
what they have is he keeps is this on the phone?

Speaker 3 (02:07):
Right?

Speaker 1 (02:07):
It's pretty it is and they might they just play
his voice. What a great way to get a bit
of coin, you know, can we try that one? You know,
Alex is near, but he's on the phone right now.
That's the sports can see your team. Chris Patt is
in it, so they can put it on the posters.
He's not physically you see him, he's left the voice

(02:28):
smel anyway. It's just it's just he's just texted me. Oh,
he's on these phone calls. And he's obviously in his
trader on the set of Jurassic Park in that outfit. However,
that means more Taylor Kitsch and if you're a fellow
fan of Friday Night Lights, he's an outstanding ector. Even
better the second season. Really we like it. I love
the fact if you caught a show Lone Wolf, I'm

(02:49):
all over them. Terminalist lone Wolf, turn out A turn
from me, Patsy, what are you enjoying?

Speaker 6 (02:55):
A good tip from producer Caitlin which we have tried,
you know how been doing my chili Kong khn. She
has found a range of mixes that make it easy
and they're very very healthy, no preservatives, no nut is
brilliant for people on Keito like the first Lady, your
wife or if you're gluten free, you know, because it's

(03:15):
hard to get stuff that you can have.

Speaker 5 (03:17):
It's called mingle these spice mixers. Person, yes, mingle clear.

Speaker 1 (03:23):
And the races today, aren't.

Speaker 6 (03:24):
We We had tacos with him this week, Yes, taco
Thursday or Tuesday Tuesday. Yes, and I don't know if
it's just me, but the taco case is getting smaller.

Speaker 1 (03:36):
No, no, no, I'm with Patsy. They are. Yeah, there
is the making you now upsides to the Jumbo ones.

Speaker 5 (03:43):
Yes, yes, so Jumbo is just a normal size brand.

Speaker 1 (03:47):
Are our hands getting bigger?

Speaker 5 (03:49):
No question?

Speaker 1 (03:52):
You heard it here first. This goes right to the top.
It's all that four g Now, it's all the nasties
and the spices. It's making my hands massive.

Speaker 5 (04:01):
Women were making them. It's actually hard to shove the
filling in between.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
The taco size.

Speaker 5 (04:10):
I say, fairly.

Speaker 1 (04:12):
Get that wine my wine glass doesn't mean it was
my ex a large wine glass getting smaller. Two of
those glasses for people glass? What will they shrink next? Honestly.

Speaker 6 (04:26):
The other thing this week is all the cords in
our teenager's room around her school desk were driving us
insane and I don't know.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
How yes, terrible.

Speaker 6 (04:35):
I have rescued the rumba from the cords. It's eaten
about two of her stars to pull.

Speaker 1 (04:41):
The desk over, doesn't it. I've had that's really exist.
It's going to drag it down the corridor.

Speaker 3 (04:45):
Ward.

Speaker 6 (04:46):
I thought there's got to be a better solution, so
we tried, you know, the power board. The love God
tried to sort of mount it on the side of.

Speaker 1 (04:52):
Her to an outhousees it was terrible. Our teenagers should
live actually in an outhouse and then come back when
you're twenty one.

Speaker 5 (05:00):
Yes, yes, I agree.

Speaker 6 (05:01):
But I found this that came out. It's an Rlex
brand desk top power station and it's specifically for.

Speaker 1 (05:08):
It, and it's a plug on your desk.

Speaker 5 (05:12):
Brilliant though.

Speaker 1 (05:12):
It's actually like chances to Walter Raleig, who's been around
the world with some amazing plug.

Speaker 6 (05:20):
It's brilliant, it's great, four points for power and all
you like for your.

Speaker 1 (05:25):
I guess you'd call this a plug multi shopping.

Speaker 5 (05:30):
I've never seen it, have you seen?

Speaker 1 (05:32):
Doesn't know open Einstein's age, no idea. It's struggling with
that zoomland in that laptop.

Speaker 5 (05:39):
You major in box opening.

Speaker 4 (05:42):
Sorry street Smarts, it's because it's bedroom.

Speaker 1 (05:51):
Why bring it in though, because I need.

Speaker 6 (05:53):
To see the information on the box and what it does.
Because you inevitably would ask stupid questions, got no answer.

Speaker 5 (06:02):
Anyway. I found it good.

Speaker 1 (06:04):
No, No, it's great.

Speaker 6 (06:05):
You can put it in that little pod thing in
your backy?

Speaker 1 (06:08):
How that now? Which is getting me just getting a
new laptop. Let's just move on, all right, we're going
to take her. I don't want to talk about Let's uh,
there's take a break. We come back with part two
of Double Thumbs Up the.

Speaker 3 (06:20):
Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

Speaker 1 (06:23):
In Christian O'Connell Show, we're doing Double thumbs Up. We
go around the team and we share what we're into
this week. Rio, what's it for you?

Speaker 7 (06:30):
I've got a couple for you guys. Firstly, we are
into spring. We are into pollen season.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
Oh you getting into poland.

Speaker 5 (06:38):
Issues?

Speaker 1 (06:39):
Must have Oh yeah, a shout out. I'm really getting
into pollend guy, what were they shrink next? They shrunk it?
You know, pollen's.

Speaker 7 (06:48):
It's very hard to get accurate pollen readings on most
of the major apps. So there is an independent Melbourne
company called I'm not sure the company is called, but
the app call is called Melbourne Pollen App and it
has every day alert of the pollen rating in Melbourne.
So today the grass pollen rating is low, you don't
have to worry about it.

Speaker 5 (07:07):
It sends you a alert every morning.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
So when you wake up you have toash a really
good idea.

Speaker 5 (07:13):
It's a lifesaver.

Speaker 7 (07:13):
I download it every spring, very very helpful, put on
your notifications for it. Second one, I spoke about it
three weeks ago after watching the first episode of Survivor.
It is the finale on Sunday and it has been
an incredible, incredible When it ends.

Speaker 5 (07:35):
I'm going to be devastated.

Speaker 7 (07:36):
I don't think Australians realize Survivor is so so big.
It's in forty countries, it's been got fifty in America.

Speaker 1 (07:43):
It is the biggest TV most successful TV show in
the world.

Speaker 5 (07:45):
Yeah, it wouldn't surprise me.

Speaker 7 (07:46):
And Australia at the moment is the gold standard of
Survivor around the world. It's like, yeah, it's revered as
like the number one sort of the best players, the
best strategy, the best Survivor seasons are always Australia at
the moment.

Speaker 1 (07:59):
Would have thought that, I know, so, I know you
would have done sorry, just whment I got on the passport.
I would have thought that, actual, yeah, yeah, I knew that. Yeah,
it feels right, it feels right leaders a.

Speaker 7 (08:09):
Subject I don't know, but that so this season They've
got all the best players from the history of Survivor
against all the best Australian players.

Speaker 1 (08:16):
You really love it, don't you.

Speaker 5 (08:17):
It's so good.

Speaker 1 (08:18):
Suddenly you become a ten year old his new bank.
He's got the best.

Speaker 5 (08:26):
Tony, David, George, they're all there.

Speaker 1 (08:29):
There's no empty box with this one. Yes, it's crammed.

Speaker 5 (08:35):
It's on tenth plate.

Speaker 7 (08:35):
If you've never watched Survivor, it's half the length of
a normal season. It's so easy to get into. If
you've never watched it, start here. It's as good as
it gets. Ten play Survivor, Alex, What have you love?

Speaker 1 (08:45):
This week?

Speaker 8 (08:45):
I'm watching a show called Katrina Come Hell in high
Water on Netflix.

Speaker 1 (08:50):
Oh.

Speaker 8 (08:51):
I don't mean to bring the mood down, guys, but
gee whiz, that was something in our history that I
didn't know too much about. One hundred and twenty five
billion dollars worth of damage. It wasn't so much the
storm and all that came with the storm. It was
like the next day that the damage was done because
the levee broke around New Orleans and I didn't know any.

Speaker 1 (09:10):
Of this stuff.

Speaker 8 (09:11):
They had all these people in the super Dome, the
NFL team has the Superdome there, But it wasn't until
the next day, in that afternoon that all the flooding
came in and there's like, you know, twenty five feet
of water that just take it took over the entire city.
So it's an incredible, I guess, learning experience about something
that really shaped that area of America.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
And they're still talking about it and still getting over it. Well, one,
they're warnings it was going to happen because I met
years ago interviewing Harry Sheer, you know from spinal Tap, Yeah,
and all lots of so many Simpsons characters. Anyway, that's
his hometown. He actually made a documentary about what happened
because the world didn't know, right, Yeah, that's on Netflix, Netflix.

Speaker 3 (09:49):
Yeah, the Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 1 (09:52):
That's who My wife said to me, Hey, Chris, do
you know anything about footy colors? And I didn't. I
didn't know what this tradition was. And she's doing her
master's degree in art therapy at the moment, and so
two days a week she's on placement at this amazing school.
She said, on the Thursday, they're earned footy colors all
the teachers, they'll come in their team's twenty colors, and
the kids as well. My wife is a lightweight D's fan.

Speaker 5 (10:16):
That's just so much.

Speaker 1 (10:17):
So right, how dare you? I've taken you to games?
How dare you? So my wife goes to me, she's
a Royal lightweight facer. She goes says, there, any can
you just give me a couple of names and stuff
like that, And I was this close to really giving
her fake names. Yeah, Cletus van Dam is the coach,
and Hulk Hogan is like the main goalscorer there. Yeah.

(10:41):
John Cena as well is about the big guy at
the back. So she we went to the d s
much shop and I got a jumper and then she
got these I didn't know he get D's pajama bottoms,
so I know, I know, yeah, yeah, they're like checkered
ones and that, and she looked like paddingson bear. So

(11:02):
she went off to school yesterday and then so what
they do is this is a lovely thing. We don't
have this in England with the EPL. I love this
idea of footie colors. So the whole school gets involved.
So are hundreds of kids all turning up yesterday and
then teams there was only in a very big school.
There was only one other D's fan to walk around
the special assembly they had yesterday with my wife right

(11:23):
while they played the team song. It was all Hawks fans,
Pies fans as well, maybe bandwagon jumpers like Patsy as well.
Would come out of the woodwork. Bet she's there with
their scarf today, streaming out of her car window driving
through the streets. And Alex, you're finding it about this now?
Is your talk to ev she's doing footie colors today?

Speaker 4 (11:41):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (11:41):
Yeah, they cannot wait for it. And yesterday we were
at the playground and Evy and Audrey and Max are
all there, my six year old twins and Max was four,
and I had both crying at the same time. So
Max is crying with a with a pain in his stomach,
and then Evy comes off the monkey bars, face first
onto the ground.

Speaker 1 (11:59):
I didn't say it. Oh god, Yeah, so I had
two okay.

Speaker 8 (12:03):
Crying children at once. Yeah, she's okay, but she really
hit her head and sort of hit just above her eye.
So anyway, we get back home and she's putting ice
on it, and I was like, oh, Edie, tomorrow.

Speaker 5 (12:15):
You can look like a footy player because it's colours day.

Speaker 1 (12:18):
Yeah yeah, she looks the parts immediately more like an
n RL player. But yees, because.

Speaker 5 (12:24):
They're gonna wear Edie.

Speaker 8 (12:26):
I think it's gonna wear her New South Wales State
of Origins, Jersey.

Speaker 1 (12:30):
Or Dad's team of the Kangers. So no wonder she's gone.
Where's my crnella Sharks top.

Speaker 8 (12:35):
Paramount of heels? I couldn't get it away. The Panthers
one and then Audrey she's sticking with the North Melbourne
CA Kangaroo's colors, so they can't wait. They're really looking forward.

Speaker 1 (12:45):
So it's Putty colours Chamber and the NRL boys on
the team. So and it's some really is that some
of the nr L you do as well? Was it
just an AFL thing? I think it's an AFL thing.

Speaker 5 (12:53):
Yeah, I've never seen.

Speaker 7 (12:54):
I'm not familiar with it up in New South Wales.
I think it's just a lovely Victorian thing.

Speaker 8 (12:58):
Yeah, and a great idea too because it's raising money
as well, which is a nice thing for the fight
cancer next year.

Speaker 1 (13:04):
Let's do it on the show. Yes, yes, yes, I'll
see if I could fit into my wife's d's pajama bottoms.

Speaker 3 (13:10):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 1 (13:14):
Luke Christian, I heard you talk about what does dad want?
My dad already wants is a slushy or ice cream machine?
And where do you get would you even? I mean,
can we buy them? Is it available? Is that a
trade on? You know, certain things are only like if
you're in the trade you can get one and you're
or you're you're outfitting a brand new seven eleven And

(13:34):
I'm trying to think when I've never seen one of those?

Speaker 5 (13:37):
Yeah, are they available just for regular consumers?

Speaker 1 (13:39):
The only person I would trust on us would be you,
Patsy if you seen a Hanko got one?

Speaker 3 (13:43):
Yeah?

Speaker 6 (13:43):
No, they want one of those? You can get them
at JB. I'm trying to think of the name, because
we've got one, the Ninja Ninja slushy. That's what you want?

Speaker 1 (13:51):
You can we buy them?

Speaker 6 (13:52):
Yeah, they're brilliant, you know what. They were in America
for so long and we couldn't get them here in
Australia for ages and everyone was hanging out for.

Speaker 4 (14:00):
These slashies every Australia came out.

Speaker 1 (14:03):
Kind of TV comes to Australia and the ninja slushy.

Speaker 6 (14:07):
Valued about fairly pricey, between four and five hundred bucks.

Speaker 1 (14:11):
Yeah, which you're just slushing up ice. Get a rolling pin.
That's what I used to do with the kids years ago.
Get iced to a class and cordial and the smash
it with a rolling pin. Ye.

Speaker 5 (14:21):
Yeah, No, it's great.

Speaker 6 (14:22):
You can just put the like, no mixing, just put
the drink in there and it does it.

Speaker 1 (14:26):
All for you. It's cheaper to go to seven eleven.
How much does one cost? Just get the old man
won every month or shelting. It'll only come up to
twenty bucks over a year.

Speaker 7 (14:34):
And there's no way you're using that more than three
or four times.

Speaker 1 (14:38):
Yeah, that gets dumped in the back of the pantry
at the bottom drawer with all the other stuff that
you briefly got into, like spiralizers and stuff like that. Oh,
I'm going to get into making bread. During COVID, I
brought a bread making machine and got used once. I've
made one loaf and it was the most expensive loaf
of bread ever. So, you know, Monday came in and

(14:59):
I was raging about NBN. We'd moved our twenty year
old one year old daughter Ruby into a new place
and we had a night bear with NBN. It just
hadn't worked. So she had to yesterday at half seventh morning.
And if you're a student, seven point thirty am is
like being woken up at one am to where their

(15:20):
body clock is. So she had to get up and
this engineer arrived and she was like, you know, my
dad tried to do this. And he took one look
at where the NBM was plugged into the war and
he goes, it's not specially be plugged in there. That's
for the TV. And he goes, it's meant to be
over there, and he pointed to the other side of
the room. He picked up a lead, put it over
the other side of the room and he goes that.

(15:41):
He goes working now thirty seconds and you were very
upset at the raging. That's apologize to the NBN corporation
and for the marvelous service that is now working at
full speed. And she said that this guy was like
in his late twenties and he looked at her and
knew she was a student and saw all the books
out and stuff like that, essays being done and as

(16:02):
she felt with embossed, and then she just went, yeah,
my dad was setting that up, and he went he went,
your dad, yeah right, walks off whoever you were, Thank
you for stopping a dad being so carelessly thrown under
the bus like that on the eve of Father's Day.
But there's nothing worse though, when you called somebody out

(16:23):
and essentially you're wasting their time, it is. It's humiliating.
This happens to you this week, didn't it?

Speaker 5 (16:28):
Rio, Yes, what's happened to me?

Speaker 7 (16:30):
I called out, I've had my dishwasher having its bloody
F seventy eight issue, and so this keeps happening.

Speaker 1 (16:36):
Sounds like an your workout program. I just got into
the F seventy.

Speaker 7 (16:40):
Eight And so I call this guy out at great expense,
and then he comes to goes, okay.

Speaker 1 (16:47):
You mean you shouldn't earn a living from repairing the washing.
She should do it for free for radio hosts.

Speaker 7 (16:52):
Got the horror of it if someone is willing to
do that. I called him up and he has a
look at the machine. He goes, look, that doesn't seem
to be anything wrong with it. I know, no, no, it
has the F seventy eight issue. Just just put it
through a cycle. It'll do it. Puts it through the cycle.
Hees it's working perfectly fine. He's like, it's work, there's
nothing wrong with that, And I do it again, Do
it again, do again. I made him try this cycle

(17:14):
five times. He wouldn't do the error. The one time
I actually needed to do the error, I wasn't doing it.

Speaker 5 (17:20):
And then he bugers off.

Speaker 7 (17:21):
That's two hundred and fifty dollars for him to look
at a perfectly good dishwasher, and then as of last
night it's not working again.

Speaker 1 (17:33):
You well listen. If he's listing now, you can pick
up another easy two hundred and fifty bucks. He's obviously
got some Midas touch well, he just his physical presence
meant it. Do you reckon? He's got some special sort
of Zappa or remote control in his pockets. What a
great scam, having to do no work or bending over
or twisting or anything. All right, are you wasted other

(17:54):
people's time?

Speaker 3 (17:56):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 1 (17:59):
Right now it is we've been trying to save. Fuck
it really does need saving as well. There's been a
breaking new situation last night. I was saying, how earlier
on this week it was going to be me and
my daughters. My wife couldn't actually attend Father's Day lunch
breaking situation yesterday some one of my tearful daughters. So
I don't want a name, but I'm now down to

(18:21):
just me and one daughter curse the other one can't
any who'sy. She sent me a text message about an
hour later, it's all good, And I said, look, it
doesn't matter, it's okay, you're growing up now, it's all right.
And then she sent me a text mess about an
hour later. He goes, can you promise me you're not
gonna be sad and cry?

Speaker 3 (18:37):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (18:37):
Father, I can't promise you that for that's any day.
You know, I am a middle aged Taylor Swift, So
what can I say?

Speaker 9 (18:45):
So?

Speaker 1 (18:45):
Yeah, anyway, look, it's it's a it's a rapidly evolving situation.
Me and her. Father's Day is Tuesday night. Now I'll
be looking like a divorced dad or something, you know,
strange dad on a Tuesday night. I bet he was
at some business conference, sleeping with the secretary or something.
Look at him over there, just just ticking off. I

(19:07):
bet he forgot it was Father's Day. Anyway, Let's get
into the last for the final time, this week as
we ask you, what does dad want? What a dad wants?
It is what a dad.

Speaker 5 (19:17):
Wants, what a dad means? Something better? Dad us and
he gees I'm asking you.

Speaker 1 (19:25):
So Colin and tell me all right before we go
to the line. She can call in now what does
your dad want? And also dads have been calling in
for themselves this week as well. It's all okay, dad,
we get it. Sometimes you've got to look after yourself.
A Father's Day or as Paul textan on Monday, Christian's
to be honest is Father's Hour thirteen fifty five, twenty two. Patsy,

(19:46):
I know you are super organized. Chris's gift hidden somewhere,
ready to go for something.

Speaker 6 (19:51):
Well, it is in the boot of mike car. We
haven't wrapped it.

Speaker 5 (19:54):
It is.

Speaker 6 (19:55):
He's not listening. It is an outdoor requier which he
will love.

Speaker 1 (19:58):
Or nice bye. That's such a great gat bag and
everything's very fancy.

Speaker 6 (20:02):
But he had my car for two days earlier in
this week, so I suspect he's probably already seen.

Speaker 1 (20:07):
Definitely, gosh, he has he has.

Speaker 6 (20:13):
Exactly I guarantee would have in the back of the car.
When you turn around the corner it was sort of
bide of the car, so I'm sure he would have stopped.

Speaker 1 (20:21):
Mind you, it was not the first time he's probably
driven your car. There's strange sort of cranking and banging noises.
There's another one of your victims trying to get out
the boot.

Speaker 6 (20:29):
We also got him a couple of jackets and they're
still in like the shop bag.

Speaker 1 (20:34):
Is that what he's opening up that it's a shot back.
Don't tear it him. I have to go back. Don't
tear it case it doesn't fit.

Speaker 5 (20:40):
So we'll see that, know exactly what he's gone, Alex.

Speaker 1 (20:43):
What is it you're after? Actually, because obviously you got
very young kids, So what that delete? Do you get?
Like those lovely home written cards and homemade cards? I
love those one, yeah.

Speaker 8 (20:52):
I do, actually, And I've I've got some really nice
stuff from the kids because they make it at preschool.

Speaker 1 (20:58):
Why kinder, you might say.

Speaker 8 (20:59):
Down here and Max, he's given me this lovely it's
like a little fashioned gum nut and it's got a
little node on it as well, and it's it's painted
and it's just lovely, one of those little artsy crafty
things that they make. And he's already given it to me.
He doesn't quite get the concept. He's only four years after,
so he just gave it to me. It's like two
days ago.

Speaker 1 (21:17):
His father he's doing, he's doing pre he's Father's Day.

Speaker 8 (21:20):
So I appreciate that because it won't be much, you know,
they won't be much coming to me on Father's Day.
And perhaps I don't know. Bonnie's being all coy about it.
She's like, oh, they're all having a little whisky.

Speaker 1 (21:29):
Dad have plans.

Speaker 5 (21:30):
Maybe Christian can join your Father's Day and sort of.

Speaker 1 (21:35):
Cry on each other's shoulders. I'm doing something in the
in the evening, so I am free to attend listeners
Father's Day lunches as a dad plus one. I love
the idea of a dad plus one. Who's that strange
sad dad at the end. That's the guy does the
breakfast show as kids don't love him. It's all fine,

(21:56):

not seeing one of them for six years. He hasn't
even met his granddaughter in person. So our other daughter

the kids are that age, any grandkids as well, I

are slightly different. You know, they're change and go so quickly,
so you're missing out these precious moments and photos and

Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

Speaker 1 (35:05):
I can't stop thinking about that dad, Michael in his van,
the moment he we hung up, that guy had to
pull over. You could just hear everything, and I I
didn't sound like it, but if you're really listening properly,
you could just hear and get everything. I cannot imagine
being in that situation, and it's almost irresponsible for us
to call him in the middle of you know, seven

(35:25):
of the morning. Okay, yeah, I Mikeau, we've never met before.
We'll tell you live on the radio and pack your
bag's mate, you're off. See how we're going to do
the news. That guy's it is beautiful about it. It's
just a middle he's just getting his day going. But yeah,
I can't stop thinking about him. I almost wish I
was at the airport seeing them reunited with his grandkids
that he's not even met next week. It's it's amazing,

(35:48):
all right. So every Friday we let you pick all
the music from eight We call it the People's Playlist,
and we give you a theme and then you have
to pick a song with that theme in the title. Today,
for Father's Day, we're going to do something a bit different.
We want you to pick a song for your dad.
And maybe there's a song that reminds you of Dad.
Maybe dad's not around, you don't see him, but there's
a song that really reminds you of your dad, or

(36:10):
that your dad loved, or that your dad would love
to hear today. So we're going to call these dedications.
Its song was dedicated to Dad.

Speaker 5 (36:17):
Song for your Dad. The Sheep borisp Bread.

Speaker 12 (36:20):
This isn't Dad celebration, Who Mistake or the Who Creed?

Yeah, o the things that needed a heads up. Wow,
that just came left field. It came in hard.

Speaker 5 (36:40):
It slaps.

Speaker 1 (36:42):
I actually thought I thought a backup tapeer kicked in
and we were all fair or we went to the ads.
That's a lot. That's a lot going in the area.
We went through all a lot. There a lot of.

Speaker 5 (36:52):
Emotion going to wake you up.

The amazing Cress is a great man and a great day.

Speaker 6 (37:18):
Oh thank you. It's got to be the Eagles take
it easy. Absolutely adores them.

Speaker 1 (37:25):
Great song as well. This is a Friday song.

Speaker 6 (37:27):
Actually has a bucket list. On that bucket list, in
the next couple of years, him and a couple of
mates are going to go. I'm going to make sure
that he does it to a corner and stand on
a corner in Winslow, Arizona.

Speaker 5 (37:39):
Oh that's brilliant.

Speaker 1 (37:40):
Oh wow, Pats, I.

Speaker 6 (37:41):
Said, because he didn't do anything for his fiftieth And
I said, you know what. He said, Oh no, we've
got you know, we could spend it on other stuff.
And I said, no, this is something you need to do.
I think there's a tendency for dads to kind of
put themselves last, like mums, probably even more so for dads.
They tend to put mums up on a pedestal, treat
you a bit like a queen, which is lovely, but

(38:02):
it's like burnt toast syndrome. They don't always put themselves first.
So Chris, if you're listening, you're going to do these trips.
So this is why this song is for him today.

Speaker 1 (38:11):
And he actually, I think you might need He just
needs to see them. He's probably packing up right now
because that dad Michael with a carpool. No no, no, no, no, no, no,
just for the listener, no no, no, no, put the
bag down. Oh oh okay, all right, just the requirement. No,
you can go and stand on a corner, but not yet, Victoria.

(38:35):
And he's got a surprise gift, but that he's got
to do that. What a lovely story.

Speaker 3 (38:40):
As well.

Speaker 6 (38:41):
I'm going to make sure that him and mates do
do it. It's on their bucket list.

Speaker 5 (38:44):
And it's funny fact he actually.

Speaker 6 (38:47):
Is on a special edition Eagles DVD from one of
their local concerts.

Speaker 1 (38:52):
What do you mean?

Speaker 6 (38:53):
Well, back in two thousand and four they were out
for their Farewell One tour and they were filming both
nights and Chris had this Hawaiian shirt on, not intentionally
onlind you.

Speaker 1 (39:04):
But it was a hot How do you accidentally get
a Hawaiian shirt?

Speaker 6 (39:07):
He was just wearing a Hawaiian shirt shorts and you

Speaker 1 (39:10):

get him to that corner.

Speaker 5 (39:55):
The house there kicking all the tires.

Speaker 7 (39:57):
I feel so bad for the real estate agents of
Melbourne this Saturday because they have this sort of double
act that they do.

Speaker 5 (40:04):
Dad Dad brought a head torch because he loves to
get up in the little you're finding you a case
to get up with, like the crawl spaces and just.

Speaker 1 (40:13):
Everything fire all right, Kevin from my grand Designs.

loudly pointing out defect.

his old land cruise that it was ancient. It had
six CDs that were always the same six CDs throughout
my entire childhood. Number one was Casey Chambers Barricades and
Brick Walls, two Eagles, Greatest Hits.

Speaker 5 (41:11):
Three. Catherine Jenkins was this opera singer. He had this
weird crush on he doesn't like I.

Speaker 1 (41:18):
Get it, I get it to Lee, I get it. Yeah,
you get that head torch up, Yeah, I get it.

Speaker 7 (41:23):
Bob doing greatest hits, Tony Child's many Rivers to cross.
But the most smashed album definitely was this song It's
all over Now, baby Blue. Right, So every time I
get picked up from school, this blaring out the.

Speaker 1 (41:42):
The windows, crank it, Dodt Lee, crank it.

Speaker 5 (41:47):

I love that. Great story. Thanks for sharing that, Rhea.
Those are the moments, isn't it? Those all stories with
like your mums and dance. It's those little it's those
little sort of fragments like little postcards. Aren't they like
a little polaroid? It's you remember him blasting a song there?
What's it for you?

Speaker 8 (42:05):
Alex oh, well, Dad passed away about seven years ago now,
but he used.

Speaker 1 (42:09):
To love, absolutely love Queen.

Speaker 8 (42:11):
Like it's this big burly farmer who you'd think loved
country music, public slim dusty, but no, no, no.

Speaker 1 (42:17):
Loved Van Morrison and loved Queen.

Speaker 8 (42:19):
And one song in particular, we were at our cousins
twenty first and he just took over the jukebox and
just kept.

Speaker 5 (42:24):
Playing this song over and over, and he could never
really dance.

Speaker 8 (42:28):
He just kind of moved his big fists in kind
of jolting motions and it's of course I want to
break free.

Speaker 1 (42:39):
Great song I Love the Sound of Your Dad Man
so good, written.

Speaker 8 (42:42):
By Queen bassist John Deacon A nine and eighty three.
Just an absolute banger, and every time I hear it,
I just think of Dad.

Speaker 1 (42:48):
So it's a really lovely So thinking about this Sunday, yes,
I will a lot.

Speaker 8 (42:53):
Yeah, of course I miss him very much, and yeah
I get emotional talking about it, but yeah I will,
And I'll probably play that song a couple of.

Speaker 1 (43:03):
Times andree once wherever he is, Yeah.

Speaker 8 (43:06):
Exactly, and I know he'd be hearing it.

Speaker 1 (43:08):
I'd like to think he's hearing it wherever he is,
so we're thinking of him. What do you think he
got from your dad? I always have to think about
what we get from my parents, even if we don't
realize it. Sometimes it's very easy to mind about your parents.
You've got a million drop down stories about things they
didn't do. But you know, sometimes you think about what
you actually get from your mum and dad. And he
struck as a really hard working man, your dad when
you talked about him.

Speaker 8 (43:28):
He was I'd like to think I got his humor
and the ability to laugh at yourself. Yeah, he was
very funny man, told many many stories that he embellished
every time he told them.

Speaker 1 (43:40):
And we would say, that is that's a d DNA.
It isn't my kids the amount of times to goad
the radio show there, that is not what I want happen.
My job isn't to tell the truth that rental money
comes from those been of mayonnaise and.

Speaker 5 (43:54):
A story, and I don't spoil the story. These people
haven't heardless one.

Speaker 1 (44:01):
But yeah, thinking about him wherever he is, This Sunday
great lovely all right for me, I'm actually gonna this
is my dadication This would be this is the song
actually reminds me of the joy of being a dad,
and it's those little pockets of connection that you have
with your kids. And my daughter's now eighteen and twenty one,
so it's a very change of thing what it is
to be a dad to them, however, but they are big.

(44:22):
They got me to Taylor Swift. I was a doubter.
I you know, I'm of the generation where it's Springsteen,
it's the Stones, it's LED's up, Taylor Swift, and then
I got it. And then when I really got how
great an answered she is. When I went with my
daughters to the MCG I've never seen anything like it. Incredible.
So this song always reminds me of being a dad myself.

(44:43):
It's Taylor Swift love story. Do you know we could
easily just play an hour of Eagles songs and every
dad in the world here and not hearing the the
next life and dads that having he arrived yet would
be rocking out. So in the pre life, the afterlife,

(45:06):
this life, what is it? The egles just dad's with
It's like on a cellular level. All right, this has
been lovely hearing all these stories. Sorry, everyone, let's take
song from people calling in right now? Give us a call. Then,
what is the song that reminds you of Dad? And
tell us why? Because of is it's like a Polaroids.
It's a froze at moment. It's not just a song.

Dad doing? Is he's singing to it like alexis Dandy?
Is he dancing with his fists?

Speaker 3 (50:35):
Christian O'Connell Show Gone Podcast.

Speaker 1 (50:38):
Thank you very much for all the sharings that people
are sending in about these It's amazing that the music
can do, isn't it. You start talking about a song,
you start talking about your dad, then suddenly you just
feel like it opens up a channel to something in
your heart. Doesn't It just bypasses your brain and you
think and controlling brain, it goes Strangely, some of these
messages that we're getting in about songs that reminds you
of a dad are just so amazing. We'll probably come

(51:01):
back to this on Monday as well. Actually, anyway, if
there is a song you'd love us to dedicate to
your dad, we'll call them dedications, don't play the music
real text in now twice is enough twice a charm?
I say with that one, it's like an over rich pudding.
Too much trifle, the nana too much share in this rifle.
Text me the song he want us to play today
before nine o'clock four seventy five, three one oh four three.

(51:22):
Right now that I was talking about this earlier on
Monday show, I came in. I was raging. I was
fuming NBN. Last Saturday we moved our twenty one you
old daughter Ruby into a new place and it was
my job to look after the sort of tech in
the hardware, and so I set up NBN. It wouldn't work.
She called the guy. He couldn't get it to work,
and they couldn't work out what it was. Have you

(51:44):
turned it on and off? Yes, we've done that, and
they said we can have to send a guy out
Thursday morning. A guy came out yesterday morning and he'd
sorted it out within thirty seconds. I'd put the lead
into wrong hole in the wall. I was trying to
get NBN out of the thing where the TV comes out,
and he just went, as it's over there. The socker
for it is just over there, moved it to the

(52:06):
embarrassment accumiation of my daughter the other side of Roomdley
put it in and the NBN came pouring out. It's
so yeah, I'll be hearing a lot about that this
Father's Day, about what a great dad I still am.
Impact every day, still impact every day. So really the
theme is wasting people's time. You know that guy to

(52:28):
come out. It was gone in under sixty seconds. I'm
so glad it wasn't there. I am so glad it
wasn't there. My twenty year old George Ruby, you can
wear that one. She threw me under the bar Saint
as my dad and the guy went, yeah, right, your dad. Yeah,
I don't see any dada out there. Rio. You wasted
the dish usher guy's time this week. I did, I did.

Speaker 7 (52:50):
It was also we've wasted the time of a technician here,
one of our engineers who has a grudge against the producers. Now,
when you hear this story, you will understand why. He
used to work at a station in Darwin that had
stations all around the Northern Territory. He got a call

(53:10):
out from a station in Alice Springs that is a
fifteen hour one way trip, thirty hour return. Wow, he
asked them. He said, are you sure that it is?
It is still plugged in? Double triple checks. I'm going
to go on a fifteen hour trip to check that
this is working. It is one hundred percent plugged in.

Speaker 5 (53:28):
Do not worry. You can probably see where this is going.
He drives fifteen hours out, gets.

Speaker 1 (53:34):
Down on his hands the fifteen hours hour, gets there.

Speaker 5 (53:40):
It's not plugged in.

Speaker 1 (53:42):
I can't even imagine how you come back from that.
You don't. I don't think you did. Spring did you
stay that? He's still now on his hands and knees.

Speaker 5 (53:54):
Plugged it back in fifteen hour trip back to Darwin.

Speaker 1 (53:57):
That's insane. You had a good podcast or something podcast
the whole seasons of it. Could listen to the Buyball,
just every book ever, the Harry Potter, Oh my god,
all right, wasting people's time. There's almost like a curse sometimes,
isn't it. When there's there's a noise with the car

(54:19):
and you know, and we've all been in that situation
where no, it's not doing anymore. It's the work. When
he saying, oh trust me earlier, you're probably going to
think I'm crazy, and they look at you like, yeah,
it is sounding odd because there's absolutely nothing wrong with this,
all right, wasting people's time. NBM engineer came out yesterday.

(54:40):
I put that little lead into the wrong hole in
the wall. Is the one where the TV comes through.
There's another hole in the side of the remindent scene. Listen.
You know I'm not an MBM technician. Mate, Okay, look
at me with those judgy eyes. Diane's on the line.
Good morning, Diane, welcome to the show.

Speaker 10 (54:58):
Good morning scene. How are you this morning?

Speaker 14 (55:01):
Friday morning?

Speaker 1 (55:01):
It's beautiful, isn't it, Diane? So you wasted someone's time?

Speaker 8 (55:05):
Oh?

Speaker 14 (55:06):
I did, indeed, and I felt like such a goose after,
as I can tell you, I went out to the
car to try and start it one morning, was in
the garage, turned the key, lights were on.

Speaker 10 (55:17):
Nothing happened, not even to tick nothing. So so I
rang the RACV. You know they give you this little
tracking app thing. So yes, make his way to me.
Took him about twenty minutes.

Speaker 14 (55:28):
I reckon comes in, hops in the car, moves it
from drive to park, starts at.

Speaker 10 (55:33):
And sees there you go.

Speaker 1 (55:35):
No, no, no, no, come on, Diane, No no. I
felt like I think I think I might have fixed
this tricky said it. I'm trained for this.

Speaker 10 (55:50):
I think even see some look, I think he just
gave me this really disparaging look. Croomies were like shifting
it from parking the cart and I'm just stop, not
my head.

Speaker 1 (56:02):
I'd love to hear stories and people work for the
ra c V about what is the percentage of quick
fixes where it is like one thing and we just
sort of panic and you just lose that sort of
foresight to see the situation clearly. Diane, great story, very funny.
Thank you for sharing, mate, have a lovely weekend.

Speaker 10 (56:18):
You to thank you.

Speaker 1 (56:20):
