Speaker 3 (01:40):
You are Christian O'Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
I don't remember the rest of you. Is anyone at
the moment really having to work to stay grounded and
calm because it is crazy times, It really is. I
know you probably don't want to turn the radio on
to hear the guy who's hosting the show going it's
crazy times and it but just saying it really is
a lot right now you watched I was watching the
evening News yesterday. I was just like, God, there's just
(02:05):
so much chaos in the world world right now. And
the amazing story here in Australia about the Iranian women's
soccer team seeking asylum here in Australia doing it very
quickly is incredible. So the scenes in the last twenty
four hours, people just waking up some more and turn
the show on. Is a couple more of the women
didn't get on the plane at the last minute, and
(02:27):
I think some of the coaches as well while the
plane while they were boarding and turned around on a
seeking asylum. Is that right past?
Speaker 4 (02:34):
Yeah, really chaotic scenes at Sydney last night. So there
was state police in federal police trying to keep the
calm and two just refuse to get on the flight
and in fact and now seeking protection visus as are
joining their other five teammates, so that takes to seven.
The rest of the team has flown on to k
l but to have stayed here to seek asylum as well.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
It's an incredible story, isn't that what bravery as well
encourage not to speak before the first game was created,
all this and the regime have said, you've embarrassed us,
you have to come back home. And then this the
decisions and the conversations they must have had amongst themselves.
And I saw the footage last night when they were
having it live at Sydney Airport. There were Iranians turning
(03:18):
up to the airport praying that they didn't get on
the plane, trying to speak to some amazing scenes Yeah, incredible,
and so I'm glad that Albow has acted so quickly.
I know they probably was a lot of pressure because
old mate was suddenly pitching in, tweeting, tweet tweeting. He's
on social media.
Speaker 5 (03:37):
That's how you do diplomacy.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Very too close to me to the nuclear codes. And
he's not got on one hand on X He's tweeting
another leader in the middle of the night. Someone told
me it was someone's job to wake Elbow up at
two am Monday morning. He's tweeting you, he's tweeting you.
He's now he's threating to send a plane over to
(04:00):
save Iranians. So he's attacking Iranians and now he's saving them.
And then there was another update where trumpet center. I's
just going just had a great chat with Elbow and
he's on it.
Speaker 5 (04:12):
He's on it.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
It's not actually church church willing and kind of language
on it. We'll fight them on the beaches. I'm on it.
Tag on it all right. Coming up next your three
word Week so far.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
Let us know how is your week going so far?
Three word week, Patsy, what's yours?
Speaker 4 (04:34):
That's so an Australian. So my husband yesterday he's feeling
a bit off color.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
And when by drinking, man, he was drinking Saturday night.
That's one way to put it. As you get older,
always fine, it's not the next day you've got to
worry about. It's the Monday or Tuesday. It's like the
hangover gives you a Sunday where he should have closed
his zipper. Probably got a draft down there already. Well,
(05:02):
that's what they were yelling at Christ the family members.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
When a member of our family are sick, they always
get to have their favorite. And yesterday, for the love
God for for lunch, it was just a meat pie place.
Speaker 5 (05:14):
I just want to you normally have like.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
Maybe a broth meat pie, a lot of nurses doing rounds.
Right now, there's your pills, glossa water and a meat pie.
Speaker 6 (05:32):
I'm not coming home from a long day and cooking
up a broth on.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
The You said that's in Australia. It's like that's unmedical.
Speaker 5 (05:42):
Described Yeah, it's not.
Speaker 6 (05:44):
Well, he could have a meat pie. Only the place
I got it from head clearly not.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
Well, so screw it. So it was going to win
probably by the end of the week. Any eat meat, pie,
steak and pepper.
Speaker 6 (05:56):
The place I got it from that clearly.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
Heated it up in the microwave and not no disgusting.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Can you do it to look so it's not painting,
it's just warmed mis sick. It's not one of those
that look us. It's been there since nineteen ninety five,
white fresh. And then you go to cinemon you see
those hot dogs rotating.
Speaker 4 (06:17):
There's a real art to and it's not hard, but
there is an art to warming a pie in the
pie warm.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
There's not an art to it.
Speaker 5 (06:24):
There is.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Burn. I've seen that on Master Chef this week. This
week it is warming up week.
Speaker 6 (06:35):
You can't put it in the microwave.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Harry Meighan is going to be just tasting. How you
warm warm up a pie? Do you mean so? Do
you mean cook the pie chef? No? Just warming up,
swarming up.
Speaker 6 (06:45):
But there is an art. It's got to be just right.
Speaker 5 (06:48):
It does tell us about the art.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
You want to have a saucer of water in the
pie warmer which helps just balances the humidity so you
get the perfect pastry.
Speaker 6 (06:58):
You've got to be able to eat a pie in
one hand. It's got to be firm yet soft.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Right, and it's like one hundred and you don't you
don't go humid.
Speaker 4 (07:11):
Well, they've done it in the market ride setting humidity.
Speaker 6 (07:15):
It was not worth a hassle.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Oh my god, that's so warms properly.
Speaker 6 (07:19):
Come on, peoples, take.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
It to the pie on bards moment, someone's getting a
stiffly worded email at nine.
Speaker 4 (07:27):
You don't deserve to be selling pies if you can't
cook them the proper way in a pie warmer with
a saucer of water.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
I'm just updating my three words for Patsy right now
off her rocker Chris Head Coold aka Hangover. My three
word week so far is boys fishing trip this Saturday.
Me and nine mates, ten men, one boat fishing. I've
(07:54):
never fished before in my life. They got like cash competitions.
You can get the first one to get five fish,
last one, last catch of dam. I'm not winning any
money and it's going to cost me money.
Speaker 5 (08:06):
Have you ever been out on a boat fishing that far?
Have you been? No, you'll probably get quite sea sick.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Oh, we need to go to chemist whales get those
special tablets. Other wise you're right, do you? How can
I watch YouTube video. Is it hard to like cast off?
Speaker 2 (08:22):
You?
Speaker 5 (08:22):
You're already out there, so you can just drop the line.
And I imagine, but if you've never reeled in a
big fish before, you're going to be out in the ocean,
I don't know how you should see smaller.
Speaker 6 (08:30):
Are you on a lake?
Speaker 5 (08:31):
What are you doing? Fresh?
Speaker 1 (08:32):
No? No, we're going out into the ocean. We're going
out seven hour trip or something.
Speaker 6 (08:37):
Christian, that's that's a lot proof first trip. You should
be taking like little chunks. Yeah, it's like a big
mega and there's nowhere to go.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
There's a barbecue on the boat. So maybe actually I
might just sort of, you know, in charge of snacks,
warming up the pies in that oven or as I
called it, a humidified You're gonna get seasick tablets, don't
I yeah, just get some times.
Speaker 7 (08:59):
And there's all these wives tales that you look at
the horizon that doesn't work, look at the way or
Coca cola apparently as well, that's that helps.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
I just hope I don't have a head cold on money.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
Christian Connell Show Podcast.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
Min of the Week. How much are we going so far?
In three words? Three word weeks? So far text me

The big risk met potential boyfriend. That's from Tanya. Does

sends something like that, like a challenge out into the universe.
Can't get worse. Claire's is pruning, pruning, pruning, Christian, I

(09:56):
on a frozen pie? Yes, straight from the freezer. Give
me a call if you want more details. Yes, well, Michael,
they have to call you to find out more about that.
Kerry's three work three word weeks so far is looking
with morals. This is a very very safe working vines.
(10:18):
Now real, what is your three word week so far?
Speaker 5 (10:20):
We're speaking of pruning, pruning, pruning. Mine is too many
figs we have this?
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Yeah, that is a brand new first world problem. Too
many figs.
Speaker 5 (10:31):
A lot going on in the world.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Big situation here in Australia. What do you mean to
too many.
Speaker 5 (10:38):
Well, so we've got this huge fig tree in our backyard.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
A lucky thing. I love fig and cheese, money, beautiful, careful.
Speaker 5 (10:45):
What you wish for Christian. Because it is now fig season.
The end of late summer is when they start to
go crazy.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
We're just tuned into guarding Australia. Now they had a season.
Speaker 5 (10:56):
We didn't know.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
I didn't know, we didn't know this, and so they're
super fertile. At the moment, the tree is pregnant and
it's dropping fig babies all over the garden.
Speaker 5 (11:07):
And so there's so many figs. Literally every day, twenty
new figs, and you have to pick them otherwise they
rot on the tree. They tracked rats. So now I
get home. Yeah, because they love the fruit, they drop
off and then the rats and.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
So now I get home.
Speaker 5 (11:22):
My whole life is just dealing with this bloody fig tree.
I've got. First, I've got to pick them. I've got
a prune it. Then I've got to go door knocking
around our neighbors like hops.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
In just a few months, now you're a homeown at
middle aged. The moment, have you got secateurs?
Speaker 5 (11:38):
I've got secreturs, I've got the smaller the moment.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
You have one butter dish secreturs. Yes, you'll get that
nell kneeling bag.
Speaker 5 (11:48):
And I started making jam with all the fig I.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Haven't got that point in middle life of making jam.
Speaker 5 (11:54):
And I've joined a fig growers group on Facebook, yes,
which is amazing.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
These are your figures, heavy figures, so please I must
feak jamlight. I'd love to try.
Speaker 6 (12:06):
My mum makes some. Can you put it sitting? Will
make a batch?
Speaker 5 (12:09):
I would love to please. I can't get rid of
them quickly.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
He's got some work guys in the fridge.
Speaker 5 (12:15):
In the bottom crisper, and I'll just keep bringing them
in because.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
I don't know what to do with it. I'm going
to take some home, please do. How do you make jam?
Speaker 5 (12:23):
You cut up all the figs, then you put a
lot of sugar in it in a stove, and then
some citrus or lemon or something like that, and you
just boil them away. And maybe your mum has a better.
Speaker 4 (12:32):
Re mum's got like I think her grandmother's or great
grandmother's recipe she makes.
Speaker 6 (12:37):
So I'll make up a batch, bring some fruit in.
Speaker 1 (12:40):
God love to try some fig jam.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
The Christian o'connall Show podcast.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
Wait, did you say you've joined some kind of fig
Facebook group? Yes? Yes, Sorry when he just caught up
with that. How about you, how we should do a
thing about what people that are a member of Facebook groups? Yes,
they're the megathing on Facebook.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
Now.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
The biggest thing is the groups on Facebook. Now. Evenber
years ago, people are just posting mainly boring holiday photos
on their monkey feet at the end of a sun launcher.
You know. Then it was like what you're about to eat?
But it was mainly just your friend's feet on holiday.
Now it's all about the groups. Yeah, So what was
it did you have to apply? And administrators?
Speaker 5 (13:23):
Is three answer? Three questions on figs So they knew
that it was a genuine enthusiasm.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
What were they worried about? Spambot saw Yes, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (13:31):
They must have been infiltrated.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
What were the three questions?
Speaker 5 (13:34):
Three questions about like when was the season? Where do
you live? I mean that was pretty easy.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
That's unhackable.
Speaker 5 (13:42):
And some question about big was actually had to google.
I had to cheat my way into the enthusiast.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Is there a special kind of figure? A couple of
asking this, but I need to know now it's only
special kind of fig wasp.
Speaker 5 (13:53):
There's a there's a sort of wasp that are the
tracks that not a European or something again, and.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
We talk about wasps. There's a vaguely racist tone that
comes out from parts about the European one.
Speaker 6 (14:05):
They're nasty buggers.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
There you go there, evasive species. What about what about
Australian wasps amaricans? To give you little tickle, the nice
cold stubby Australian.
Speaker 4 (14:22):
We had European wasps in our backyard as kids in psychos.
It was like this swat team had to turn up.
We had to call the local council and.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
They are vicious. Yeah that to come like, that's really
why I emigrated. It was to escape the wasps. They
killed spiders. European was psychopathsay an Australian horror movie would
just be about European wasps. It would just be called
European wasps. Excamation mark and the excamation mark is you

Speaker 3 (18:11):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
I didn't realize that sometimes producers use this thing where
they're trying to speak to me. I've never noticed that
it's even a thing in eight years, mainly because there's
radar cly I'd like to hear from them that were
just noting one that came through fifteen minutes ago. Fact,
it's all in capitals. Fact reygun Is on Cameo now
(18:35):
is seventy dollars a spot.
Speaker 5 (18:37):
Fact.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
That's what you turn this radio show from, is breaking
facts like that.
Speaker 5 (18:42):
That's the emergency sort of message section. And that's all
we're getting right now.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
If I see something out there and why that's something
in the world has gone wrong, Raygun is a fact
at your earliest convenience, check out this communication from the producers.
Speaker 5 (18:59):
Any urgent we have a problem.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Fact reagun Is on Cameo now charges seventy dollars. I
don't know what you do with that information, but apparently
the it's a supposedly trained producers feel like you need
to know at your nearest convenience, stop everything you're doing
on the show right now. Yesterday evening, I'm watching the news,
probably like we all are right now, and just seeing
(19:24):
what's going on in the world. And there's something. If
you're a regular listeners to the show, you know. I'm
obsessed by this phenomenon called nominative determinism. It's a great
theory that somehow subconsciously your name lends up influencing your
type of job. I remember a friend of mine is
a neurologist, and I was run at his house once
(19:45):
and we're having a drink together and we're in his office.
I just noticed that one of his neurology books was
written by a man called Lord Brain. I said that,
come on, that's a parody book. Could I take a
photo of my favorites? I haven't in cheering up. I
just look at it's call it sort of like clinical
Neurology by Lord the Lord Bits Grand Lord Brain, not
(20:07):
Barry Brain. Lord Brain. And he's written a book, apparently
the definitive text on clinical neurology. So yesterday evening I'm
watching the news and they talk about the hell of
the UK Prime Minister on until trying to talk about
what the role of the UK going to play now
in supporting America not in their attacks on Iran. They
then go to a group captain who is the I've
(20:30):
written all this down and I took a photo of
the TV. You've done. Let me take a photo of
the TV. My mom does it a lot. You go
through my mom's phone, it's a lot of photos of
David atrun Nature documentaries, And I said, why are you
taking all these photos? Because well, I'm never going to
going to get to see these animals up close, so
they're in like her favorites. But there's always like a flash,
(20:51):
you know, then the camera goes off and it's going
to top left. You've got and taking photos on our
phone of like hundreds of tigers.
Speaker 5 (20:57):
What a way to experience the wonder and the majesty
of a Siberian tiger photo.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Yeah, yeah, Anyway, I took a photo of this yesterday
because I thought this is important to share with you
guys today. Along with the fact that Ray guns On
cameo fact the UK Defense Attache to the United Arab
Emirates Group Captain so obviously the u A United Emirates
is a desert country. The guy who's the UK defense
Atta has the name Group Captain Sandy sandy Lands. I
(21:29):
got a photo of them, Captain Sandy Sandy I was
I was Sandy Lands, by the way, word of the
week at the moment. But Group Captain Sandy's already enough
and he works out in the sand country United Arab Emirates.
Group Captain Sandy sandy Lands periods out there with Lord Brain,
(21:51):
even even if he wasn't a group captain.
Speaker 5 (21:54):
Calling your kid Sandy sandy Lands, he's crazy.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
The color of this guy's goatee and hair was Sandy
as well. Wow, Group Captain Sandy sandy Lands working out
in the UA. It's like, wow, we what a time
to be alive right now. Great name to be the
(22:17):
attached to a sand country. It's like, wait a minute,
you're telling me the guy's working out this group of
Captain Sandy sandy Lands. So yes, it's back an emergency
breakout edition of nominative determinism. We've had some great ones
before on the show.
Speaker 8 (22:35):
My uncle was one William Toombs and he was an undertaker.
Speaker 9 (22:40):
My son surname is Path the double R.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
He's a mechanic.
Speaker 9 (22:44):
We had a general surgeon by the name of John Hack, Michael,
dentist by the name of Darry Cutmore, and a lovely
GP by the name of doctor d spelled dee A
t hat you know.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
It was a blacksmith and his name was Deetmar Fleckma.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
But now it's group Captain Sandy sandy Lands. All right,
who do you know whose name is their job?
Speaker 3 (23:06):
Christian Connell Show pod.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
We've just realized the military guy I saw on the
TV news yesterday, the UK defense attash to the United
Arab Emirates. Group Captain Sandy sandy Lands works in sandy Lands.
I've only got it. It's it's still like mind blowing.
It's not the matrix un exposure Group Captain Sandy and
(23:33):
he's in a sandy Land named Sanderland. He's the other
bit Lord brain doesn't get any bigger. This is called
nominative determinism, the theory that your name subconsciously influences the
choice of job you have like this. Christian, right, My
productis I just realized Bryce Foothead. He probably goes by
(23:54):
the feed or something like that. Another listener is also
been treated by the same guy as well. It's obviously
very good Christian. My boss in the butchery department of
our local supermarket, Chris Lamb A good one, good one, Christian.
You're right. My surname is Stairs. I'm an optical dispenser
stare to stare at some Yes, yes, yes, Christian, I
(24:20):
never thought about it. But my surname is Owen. I'm
an accountant. O Christian. Doctor snip did my visectomy? No,
that's not true, Christian. I worked with a doctor whose
actual name was doctor, Doctor, Doctor doctor.
Speaker 6 (24:41):
Got okay.

these are great, Thank you so much for these. All Right,
So there's a video there's going viral at the moment,
and I wouldn't normally talk about some of this, but
it is so interesting, and I've shown to a few
(28:39):
friends of mine. I've watched it quite a few times,
and actually it makes me a bit sad, but also
makes me happy that I grew up in a different time,
the eighties and the nineties. So it's a video what
I'm about to play, and it's young kids as if
they were in the nineties, finding out about life now
for the counterparts, kids growing up in these times with
(29:01):
mobile phones glued to their hands like us as well,
I'm not judging like us as well, but haven't listened
to this. Wait, so you're telling me in the future,
people just stare at a little box all day inside
and outside. And in the future you don't even own
the music.
Speaker 6 (29:16):
You just pay every month to borrow it.
Speaker 4 (29:19):
Like if you stop paying, the music just disappears. So
in the future, everyone has their own phone and they
use it to type messages instead of call, and if
someone calls you without typing it first, it's considered rude.
Speaker 3 (29:33):
Our moms always say don't talk to strangers. But in
the future, everyone just talks to strangers all day on.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
The little box and shows them their house.
Speaker 6 (29:41):
And their kids.
Speaker 10 (29:42):
In the future, everyone's connected to everything and people are
still lonely.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
It's really sad, but there is an epidemic of loneliness.
Actually May made me cry when I first watched it.
I was like, God, this is not really sad about
what we're doing now to our kids and ourselves has
grown up as well. You know, we're just as bad
as the kids. We say, get off your phones. But anyway,
I was thinking about I feel blessed that a sheally
to have grown up in the eighties and nineties we're
actually border was my best friend because through boredom, was
(30:11):
a great motivator to use your imagination or to reach
out and just go and see friends. Nowadays it tastes
ages for me to range to hang out with my friends.
Me and nine mates are going fishing this weekend. It
has taken at least six months. No seriously happened last year.
We start planning it to sort this out years ago.
So what I want to do this morning is to
(30:32):
celebrate a growing up in the nineties. Growing up in
the nineties, in one line for me, it'd be you
just went around to your mate's houses. You didn't call ahead,
and if they weren't in, you just cycled to somebody
else's and then if they were in, you just grabbed them.
And then you went to another friend's house. You would
like pick up a gang. Yes, yeah, and then you
just sort of go and hang around the shops.
Speaker 5 (30:53):
Always missus so and so's Christian home.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
Yes, And you remember parents who were always an adults
were seen with slight fear, trepidation and respect. It was
always mister or missus. Yeah. Now it's your first name, basis, oh, hi, Christian,
the firm mister Christian actually back in the day in
the nineties. Also grown up in the nineties. In one line,
for me, you arrived on time. There was no You
(31:18):
couldn't message anyone to say I'm running five minutes late.
People just presume because everyone was on time. People just
presume if you didn't arrive on time, then something must
have happened to you or you were dead, and they
were just they would just go out without you.
Speaker 5 (31:30):
I guess they're dead.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
There was no as a well, shame what happened to
Chris So?
Speaker 7 (31:34):
And you didn't get a raisin until much later, But
no one really cared anyway whatever to you.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
I can't remember. I hate it now because you always
get that your phone pings, Andy's six o'clock when you saidmit,
you know it's the I'm running late. Traffic's bad today.
Oh who'd have thought at six o'clock the traffic's bad.
Real growing up in the nineties.
Speaker 5 (31:54):
In one line, they don't make kids shows like this anymore.
I was watching some shows with my little nephew, he's six,
and they're very educational, they're very thoughtful, they're very gentle.
They've got, you know, a valuable life lesson back in
the nineties when we were buy television. They were nothing
like that at all. They were completely the most unhinged, crazy, inappropriate,
(32:17):
dangerous shows. The ones that come to mine. In Australia.
That was the Ferrls, which was about a bunch of
feral cats and dogs that played together. There was Cat
Dog about two animals. I remember Cat Dog, Yes there was,
you think it was.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
Also, the barrier to get on TV was really low
these days. You have to have a big concept like
eight seasons or out imagine that. The pitch meeting for
Cat Dog, they're like, wait, what is what It's a
cat and a dog. Great, you've got two season order.
Speaker 5 (32:48):
Round The Twist was the most still have nightmares.
Speaker 7 (32:52):
My kids love it though I've been showing them that
they enjoy the show. They absolutely love it. They have
it almost every day. It's so cool. It's a bizarro
show to watch, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
You kind of like it's so strange to understand how
this came into being.
Speaker 5 (33:06):
And that adults made it, like grown paid riders sat
down and wrote.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
These shops seemed to be made with one aim to
confuse young children in the audience and terrify Geme of thrones,
very hard to keep up with what was going on?
So grown up in the nineties.
Speaker 3 (33:22):
In one line the Christian o'connal show podcast.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
Christian, my surgeon's name who operated on me for a
Hernia Seymour Gonad? No Dr g it was, come on,
I want to live in that world where Dr Gonad
is there? You want to maybe you know his group
Captain Sandy Sandy Lands. All right, we're talking about growing
up in the nineties. In one I thought I actually
(33:50):
was starting to play Teenage Dirt Birthdays, this lock he's
made this. Sorry confused, I actually now just want to
hear the song. Does anyone else? I just want to
hear Teenage dirtberg It's such a great song. Let's play
it in a minute. We're talking about growing up in
the nineties. In one line, grown up nineties. In one line,
(34:10):
by the way, Christian, I've dealt with a police officer
recently in New South Wales, Officer Lawless. That's like a
British those one of those TV shows got on BritBox Lawless.
Speaker 5 (34:22):
The detective who doesn't play by the rules.
Speaker 1 (34:24):
But he's been thrown out the big smoke and he's
now in a small one hundrum town or village in
a remote Yorkshire grim town up north where guess what
the sudden spate of killings. But luckily old Detective Lawless
it's there. He picks up the phone. Lawless. That's the
beginning of every episode. Christian grown up in the nineties.
Friday and Saturday nights. Video shops were the king They
(34:46):
were actually Satura. It was all that they were the
kings of the high street. Was the video shop? Please
be kind? Rewind Christian any age on the school holidays.
Sent outside at nine am, I would actually say, by
my parents are thrown out. They were just coming to
go see and just rip open the curtains and dadould
just stand there in that Superman post staring at daylight.
(35:07):
Gorgeous day there. Unlikely you've grown up in the UK.
It was ever a gorgeous doubt that dad, just another grim,
overcast doubt the sun. Get out there, I make something
of it. South Today's son, Come on, get out. They
would throw you out and only tell you to come
back when the street lights come on. That was that
was the permission for me. And you had to have
an entire glass of milk down in one that was
(35:30):
somehow ward off all germs and bugs. I was raised
by calcium santo, thank you very much for that. Growing
up in the nineties, running away from home, but only
going just down the road, remember showing I'm still running away,
(35:51):
you know, And I'd always be I did the whole thing,
I'm leaving now, and then you'd be finally going too
far in case no one came to look for you,
maybe just me that one that threat I could run away,
you know, and your parents were totally unfazed.
Speaker 5 (36:07):
Where you're gonna get yeah.
Speaker 1 (36:08):
Likely, you know how good you have it? Yes, Christian,
I'm new to the show. Grown Up in the nineties
mixtapes it was. It took a lot of a lot
of cognitive load to record music back in the day.
What was it pause, play, record, It's like three different buttons,
give me a little tape counter button. There was a
(36:30):
lot to record music back in the day. Then when
CDs came along and you could burn your own CDs,
you had to be careful because you could be put
in prison for doing that. Yes, you're a legal downloading line.
Speaker 5 (36:41):
Steal a car?
Speaker 1 (36:42):
Yes, yes, yes, Christian. Grown up in the nineties, I
mean grunge and Ren and stimpy Ren simply was a
brilliant show, Shawney, when your best mates live next door
or three doors down, neighborhood mates.

so he put it in his pocket. Later that night
he couldn't find it. I just said, asked, Saint Anthony,
Patriot of lost things, how would you let me know
if I was looking in the wrong spot? And I
shone the torch down on the ground once more, and
it was right at the top of my big toe.

she sits down in the plane, she discovers that the

me and then moved to left. I didn't think much
of it. I kept card dancing. I pulled up and
said red lights. Looked over to my left. The copper
was looking at me, smiling. I was still bopping away.
I wound down my window rings to two cops also
buffing away to the same song. Then one of the
(38:48):
cops points at me to look right. There was another
cop car there I had even noticed. I went down
the other driver's side window on the passage side, two
more cops also bopping to this song. Yes, I lost
my line, laughing. They're laughing. Two cop cars and me

Speaker 2 (43:40):
Thank you very much. Aware of having me as a guest.
My story is quite simple. I used to travel a
lot on business and I used to check in at
the Intercontinental Hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Speaker 7 (43:51):
This love.
Speaker 2 (43:52):
The young lady there used to sort of get to
know me eventually eventually, and one day were one month
we decided to go with the wife for holidays to
the same country and we're stayed at the Murder Plaza,
which is a an area like Barron Bay, easton wise
from Sydney beautiful and we're we're we're lying there on
(44:12):
the beautiful beach, and there's a couple not far from
us on the beach and they were drinking a matai.
I'm not sure if you know what a mattai is.
Speaker 1 (44:19):
Yes, very very strong herbal drink are very.
Speaker 2 (44:22):
Strong, heavy drink, which is very traditional of the place.
And my wife says that there's a couple of there,
the young ladies looking at us all the time. And
this lady gets up and comes over and she says,
are you Steven, And she's said yes, I said yeah,
she was a girl of course, used to check me
in at the hotel. And we're talking about, you know,
five hundred kilometers away from the place anyway, all the
(44:42):
odds well, but this is even better. For over eighteen
months and I'm in Kosamui, Thailand, one of the islands
in Kosamui in Thailand, and I was in the part
that is not a busy part of the castomo. So
there's a busy part of there's a very quiet area
that if you drive across the quiet area, lying on
(45:04):
the beach and there's a couple not far from us
and then drinking mate and I said to myself, Okay,
I'm better get up this time. I got up and
I went over and I looked at and say, my god,
it's Celia. The same couple, the same couple that we met,
you know, eighteen months of a man's in the beach
(45:25):
in Buenos Aires. What are the odds?
Speaker 1 (45:27):
What are the odds?
Speaker 5 (45:29):
Cilia believe?
Speaker 1 (45:31):
What a great story beautifully told, Stephen.
Speaker 2 (45:34):
Thank you very much. I'm waiting for two weeks for
that story, to be honest with you.
Speaker 1 (45:38):
Well, it was. I hope it was worth the way.
It was a great story. It's an incredible one. It is.
It is.
Speaker 2 (45:44):
But I guess this is the kind of things that
happens in life. You never know when you're going to
come across as someone who you know is across your
path sometime.
Speaker 1 (45:52):
Yeah, across the world. Still drinking that, Marty.
Speaker 2 (45:55):
I'm still drinking. I think that was a clue.

Speaker 1 (47:28):
Thank you, Chris. Good morning, Chris, welcome to the show. Hello,
good morning, Hello Chris. What's your story and what are
the odds?
Speaker 10 (47:38):
Well, I had my car stolen twice in one day.
Speaker 1 (47:41):
Oh that's a name, man.
Speaker 5 (47:43):
You got to lock up a bit better.
Speaker 1 (47:45):
I mean, you've got to break it down for us.
How did that happen? Chris?
Speaker 10 (47:50):
Sure? So, I was with a girlfriend at a place
in Saint Kilda. Actually, just a bit about the car,
because it's quite a recognizable car. It was a car
that my dad had sold me. It was one of
thirty Brock Special commodores and it had a very special
paint job and so it was quite distinctive. Wow and long.
So the car was star and then outside of my
thought of a girlfriend's place in the morning, and so
(48:13):
I reported it stolen, and I just figured I wasn't
going to be getting it back for a while. Anyway.
Later that evening, I've had a couple of glasses of
wine with dinner, and I get a phone call saying
that the car's been located and could I come and
pick it up? And I couldn't because I'd had a
couple of glasses of wine. So I got my parents
to go down there and fight try and find it.
And my dad went to the exact location where the
(48:34):
car was supposed to be and alas, it's not there. So,
you know, I'm sort of thinking, oh great, I've got
my car back. My dad caused me and said, have.
Speaker 1 (48:43):
You had it back for about an hour?
Speaker 10 (48:45):
Not even not even Christian, not even an hour. So
he's standing around wondering what's going on. The police come down.
It's not there, so that may been made fools of
detect him works to trust themselfs a bunch, and so anyway,
my dad disappears, and then sure enough, about two or
three hours later, they've located the car. I think they
are probably scanning the area fairly heavily now that they've
(49:07):
been made a full of and they found the car
in the same spot my dad went down and there
was like three police cars, there was dogs. Luck, and
so the car was located. But that's not the real kicker.
About two years, not even two years later, i'd broken
up with that girlfriend and had amazingly found myself with
(49:31):
another young lady, and it started Yeah, she was. She
was telling me about this troublesome child that she was
representing in court. Because she was a counselor, she couldn't
give me any names or any places in specifics. But
she was describing this kid who had stolen this very
particular car on a very particular day at a very
(49:53):
particular time, and then he'd out done the cops by
stealing it twice in one day. Was bragging about it,
and she was saying that she couldn't give any details
and said, you don't need to give me any details, darling.
Speaker 1 (50:03):
It was Mike fun Oh that's incredible. So she was
representing the person that stole the car.
Speaker 10 (50:16):
She was a counselor representing that troubled child in court. Yes,
I think you'd had a fairly dark history.
Speaker 1 (50:23):
Wow. All right, Chris, hell of a story. There a
lot of moving parts, but you did it really well.

Speaker 3 (01:40):
You are Christian O'Connell Show podcast.
Speaker 1 (01:43):
I don't remember the rest of you. Is anyone at
the moment really having to work to stay grounded and
calm because it is crazy times, It really is. I
know you probably don't want to turn the radio on
to hear the guy who's hosting the show going it's
crazy times and it but just saying it really is
a lot right now you watched I was watching the
evening News yesterday. I was just like, God, there's just
(02:05):
so much chaos in the world world right now. And
the amazing story here in Australia about the Iranian women's
soccer team seeking asylum here in Australia doing it very
quickly is incredible. So the scenes in the last twenty
four hours, people just waking up some more and turn
the show on. Is a couple more of the women
didn't get on the plane at the last minute, and
(02:27):
I think some of the coaches as well while the
plane while they were boarding and turned around on a
seeking asylum. Is that right past?
Speaker 4 (02:34):
Yeah, really chaotic scenes at Sydney last night. So there
was state police in federal police trying to keep the
calm and two just refuse to get on the flight
and in fact and now seeking protection visus as are
joining their other five teammates, so that takes to seven.
The rest of the team has flown on to k
l but to have stayed here to seek asylum as well.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
It's an incredible story, isn't that what bravery as well
encourage not to speak before the first game was created,
all this and the regime have said, you've embarrassed us,
you have to come back home. And then this the
decisions and the conversations they must have had amongst themselves.
And I saw the footage last night when they were
having it live at Sydney Airport. There were Iranians turning
(03:18):
up to the airport praying that they didn't get on
the plane, trying to speak to some amazing scenes Yeah, incredible,
and so I'm glad that Albow has acted so quickly.
I know they probably was a lot of pressure because
old mate was suddenly pitching in, tweeting, tweet tweeting. He's
on social media.
Speaker 5 (03:37):
That's how you do diplomacy.
Speaker 1 (03:40):
Very too close to me to the nuclear codes. And
he's not got on one hand on X He's tweeting
another leader in the middle of the night. Someone told
me it was someone's job to wake Elbow up at
two am Monday morning. He's tweeting you, he's tweeting you.
He's now he's threating to send a plane over to
(04:00):
save Iranians. So he's attacking Iranians and now he's saving them.
And then there was another update where trumpet center. I's
just going just had a great chat with Elbow and
he's on it.
Speaker 5 (04:12):
He's on it.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
It's not actually church church willing and kind of language
on it. We'll fight them on the beaches. I'm on it.
Tag on it all right. Coming up next your three
word Week so far.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1 (04:28):
Let us know how is your week going so far?
Three word week, Patsy, what's yours?
Speaker 4 (04:34):
That's so an Australian. So my husband yesterday he's feeling
a bit off color.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
And when by drinking, man, he was drinking Saturday night.
That's one way to put it. As you get older,
always fine, it's not the next day you've got to
worry about. It's the Monday or Tuesday. It's like the
hangover gives you a Sunday where he should have closed
his zipper. Probably got a draft down there already. Well,
(05:02):
that's what they were yelling at Christ the family members.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
When a member of our family are sick, they always
get to have their favorite. And yesterday, for the love
God for for lunch, it was just a meat pie place.
Speaker 5 (05:14):
I just want to you normally have like.
Speaker 1 (05:21):
Maybe a broth meat pie, a lot of nurses doing rounds.
Right now, there's your pills, glossa water and a meat pie.
Speaker 6 (05:32):
I'm not coming home from a long day and cooking
up a broth on.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
The You said that's in Australia. It's like that's unmedical.
Speaker 5 (05:42):
Described Yeah, it's not.
Speaker 6 (05:44):
Well, he could have a meat pie. Only the place
I got it from head clearly not.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
Well, so screw it. So it was going to win
probably by the end of the week. Any eat meat, pie,
steak and pepper.
Speaker 6 (05:56):
The place I got it from that clearly.
Speaker 4 (05:58):
Heated it up in the microwave and not no disgusting.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
Can you do it to look so it's not painting,
it's just warmed mis sick. It's not one of those
that look us. It's been there since nineteen ninety five,
white fresh. And then you go to cinemon you see
those hot dogs rotating.
Speaker 4 (06:17):
There's a real art to and it's not hard, but
there is an art to warming a pie in the
pie warm.
Speaker 1 (06:23):
There's not an art to it.
Speaker 5 (06:24):
There is.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
Burn. I've seen that on Master Chef this week. This
week it is warming up week.
Speaker 6 (06:35):
You can't put it in the microwave.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Harry Meighan is going to be just tasting. How you
warm warm up a pie? Do you mean so? Do
you mean cook the pie chef? No? Just warming up,
swarming up.
Speaker 6 (06:45):
But there is an art. It's got to be just right.
Speaker 5 (06:48):
It does tell us about the art.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
You want to have a saucer of water in the
pie warmer which helps just balances the humidity so you
get the perfect pastry.
Speaker 6 (06:58):
You've got to be able to eat a pie in
one hand. It's got to be firm yet soft.
Speaker 1 (07:04):
Right, and it's like one hundred and you don't you
don't go humid.
Speaker 4 (07:11):
Well, they've done it in the market ride setting humidity.
Speaker 6 (07:15):
It was not worth a hassle.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Oh my god, that's so warms properly.
Speaker 6 (07:19):
Come on, peoples, take.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
It to the pie on bards moment, someone's getting a
stiffly worded email at nine.
Speaker 4 (07:27):
You don't deserve to be selling pies if you can't
cook them the proper way in a pie warmer with
a saucer of water.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
I'm just updating my three words for Patsy right now
off her rocker Chris Head Coold aka Hangover. My three
word week so far is boys fishing trip this Saturday.
Me and nine mates, ten men, one boat fishing. I've
(07:54):
never fished before in my life. They got like cash competitions.
You can get the first one to get five fish,
last one, last catch of dam. I'm not winning any
money and it's going to cost me money.
Speaker 5 (08:06):
Have you ever been out on a boat fishing that far?
Have you been? No, you'll probably get quite sea sick.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Oh, we need to go to chemist whales get those
special tablets. Other wise you're right, do you? How can
I watch YouTube video. Is it hard to like cast off?
Speaker 2 (08:22):
You?
Speaker 5 (08:22):
You're already out there, so you can just drop the line.
And I imagine, but if you've never reeled in a
big fish before, you're going to be out in the ocean,
I don't know how you should see smaller.
Speaker 6 (08:30):
Are you on a lake?
Speaker 5 (08:31):
What are you doing? Fresh?
Speaker 1 (08:32):
No? No, we're going out into the ocean. We're going
out seven hour trip or something.
Speaker 6 (08:37):
Christian, that's that's a lot proof first trip. You should
be taking like little chunks. Yeah, it's like a big
mega and there's nowhere to go.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
There's a barbecue on the boat. So maybe actually I
might just sort of, you know, in charge of snacks,
warming up the pies in that oven or as I
called it, a humidified You're gonna get seasick tablets, don't
I yeah, just get some times.
Speaker 7 (08:59):
And there's all these wives tales that you look at
the horizon that doesn't work, look at the way or
Coca cola apparently as well, that's that helps.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
I just hope I don't have a head cold on money.
Speaker 3 (09:10):
Christian Connell Show Podcast.

Now real, what is your three word week so far?
Speaker 5 (10:20):
We're speaking of pruning, pruning, pruning. Mine is too many
figs we have this?
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Yeah, that is a brand new first world problem. Too
many figs.
Speaker 5 (10:31):
A lot going on in the world.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
Big situation here in Australia. What do you mean to
too many.
Speaker 5 (10:38):
Well, so we've got this huge fig tree in our backyard.
Speaker 1 (10:41):
A lucky thing. I love fig and cheese, money, beautiful, careful.
Speaker 5 (10:45):
What you wish for Christian. Because it is now fig season.
The end of late summer is when they start to
go crazy.
Speaker 1 (10:52):
We're just tuned into guarding Australia. Now they had a season.
Speaker 5 (10:56):
We didn't know.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
I didn't know, we didn't know this, and so they're
super fertile. At the moment, the tree is pregnant and
it's dropping fig babies all over the garden.
Speaker 5 (11:07):
And so there's so many figs. Literally every day, twenty
new figs, and you have to pick them otherwise they
rot on the tree. They tracked rats. So now I
get home. Yeah, because they love the fruit, they drop
off and then the rats and.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
So now I get home.
Speaker 5 (11:22):
My whole life is just dealing with this bloody fig tree.
I've got. First, I've got to pick them. I've got
a prune it. Then I've got to go door knocking
around our neighbors like hops.
Speaker 1 (11:32):
In just a few months, now you're a homeown at
middle aged. The moment, have you got secateurs?
Speaker 5 (11:38):
I've got secreturs, I've got the smaller the moment.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
You have one butter dish secreturs. Yes, you'll get that
nell kneeling bag.
Speaker 5 (11:48):
And I started making jam with all the fig I.
Speaker 1 (11:51):
Haven't got that point in middle life of making jam.
Speaker 5 (11:54):
And I've joined a fig growers group on Facebook, yes,
which is amazing.
Speaker 1 (11:59):
These are your figures, heavy figures, so please I must
feak jamlight. I'd love to try.
Speaker 6 (12:06):
My mum makes some. Can you put it sitting? Will
make a batch?
Speaker 5 (12:09):
I would love to please. I can't get rid of
them quickly.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
He's got some work guys in the fridge.
Speaker 5 (12:15):
In the bottom crisper, and I'll just keep bringing them
in because.
Speaker 1 (12:18):
I don't know what to do with it. I'm going
to take some home, please do. How do you make jam?
Speaker 5 (12:23):
You cut up all the figs, then you put a
lot of sugar in it in a stove, and then
some citrus or lemon or something like that, and you
just boil them away. And maybe your mum has a better.
Speaker 4 (12:32):
Re mum's got like I think her grandmother's or great
grandmother's recipe she makes.
Speaker 6 (12:37):
So I'll make up a batch, bring some fruit in.

God love to try some fig jam.
Speaker 3 (12:43):
The Christian o'connall Show podcast.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
Wait, did you say you've joined some kind of fig
Facebook group? Yes? Yes, Sorry when he just caught up
with that. How about you, how we should do a
thing about what people that are a member of Facebook groups? Yes,
they're the megathing on Facebook.
Speaker 2 (13:01):
Now.
Speaker 1 (13:02):
The biggest thing is the groups on Facebook. Now. Evenber
years ago, people are just posting mainly boring holiday photos
on their monkey feet at the end of a sun launcher.
You know. Then it was like what you're about to eat?
But it was mainly just your friend's feet on holiday.
Now it's all about the groups. Yeah, So what was
it did you have to apply? And administrators?
Speaker 5 (13:23):
Is three answer? Three questions on figs So they knew
that it was a genuine enthusiasm.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
What were they worried about? Spambot saw Yes, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (13:31):
They must have been infiltrated.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
What were the three questions?
Speaker 5 (13:34):
Three questions about like when was the season? Where do
you live? I mean that was pretty easy.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
That's unhackable.
Speaker 5 (13:42):
And some question about big was actually had to google.
I had to cheat my way into the enthusiast.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Is there a special kind of figure? A couple of
asking this, but I need to know now it's only
special kind of fig wasp.
Speaker 5 (13:53):
There's a there's a sort of wasp that are the
tracks that not a European or something again, and.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
We talk about wasps. There's a vaguely racist tone that
comes out from parts about the European one.
Speaker 6 (14:05):
They're nasty buggers.
Speaker 1 (14:07):
There you go there, evasive species. What about what about
Australian wasps amaricans? To give you little tickle, the nice
cold stubby Australian.
Speaker 4 (14:22):
We had European wasps in our backyard as kids in psychos.
It was like this swat team had to turn up.
We had to call the local council and.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
They are vicious. Yeah that to come like, that's really
why I emigrated. It was to escape the wasps. They
killed spiders. European was psychopathsay an Australian horror movie would
just be about European wasps. It would just be called
European wasps. Excamation mark and the excamation mark is you

Speaker 3 (18:11):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1 (18:14):
I didn't realize that sometimes producers use this thing where
they're trying to speak to me. I've never noticed that
it's even a thing in eight years, mainly because there's
radar cly I'd like to hear from them that were
just noting one that came through fifteen minutes ago. Fact,
it's all in capitals. Fact reygun Is on Cameo now
(18:35):
is seventy dollars a spot.
Speaker 5 (18:37):
Fact.
Speaker 1 (18:38):
That's what you turn this radio show from, is breaking
facts like that.
Speaker 5 (18:42):
That's the emergency sort of message section. And that's all
we're getting right now.
Speaker 1 (18:47):
If I see something out there and why that's something
in the world has gone wrong, Raygun is a fact
at your earliest convenience, check out this communication from the producers.
Speaker 5 (18:59):
Any urgent we have a problem.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Fact reagun Is on Cameo now charges seventy dollars. I
don't know what you do with that information, but apparently
the it's a supposedly trained producers feel like you need
to know at your nearest convenience, stop everything you're doing
on the show right now. Yesterday evening, I'm watching the news,
probably like we all are right now, and just seeing
(19:24):
what's going on in the world. And there's something. If
you're a regular listeners to the show, you know. I'm
obsessed by this phenomenon called nominative determinism. It's a great
theory that somehow subconsciously your name lends up influencing your
type of job. I remember a friend of mine is
a neurologist, and I was run at his house once
(19:45):
and we're having a drink together and we're in his office.
I just noticed that one of his neurology books was
written by a man called Lord Brain. I said that,
come on, that's a parody book. Could I take a
photo of my favorites? I haven't in cheering up. I
just look at it's call it sort of like clinical
Neurology by Lord the Lord Bits Grand Lord Brain, not
(20:07):
Barry Brain. Lord Brain. And he's written a book, apparently
the definitive text on clinical neurology. So yesterday evening I'm
watching the news and they talk about the hell of
the UK Prime Minister on until trying to talk about
what the role of the UK going to play now
in supporting America not in their attacks on Iran. They
then go to a group captain who is the I've
(20:30):
written all this down and I took a photo of
the TV. You've done. Let me take a photo of
the TV. My mom does it a lot. You go
through my mom's phone, it's a lot of photos of
David atrun Nature documentaries, And I said, why are you
taking all these photos? Because well, I'm never going to
going to get to see these animals up close, so
they're in like her favorites. But there's always like a flash,
(20:51):
you know, then the camera goes off and it's going
to top left. You've got and taking photos on our
phone of like hundreds of tigers.
Speaker 5 (20:57):
What a way to experience the wonder and the majesty
of a Siberian tiger photo.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Yeah, yeah, Anyway, I took a photo of this yesterday
because I thought this is important to share with you
guys today. Along with the fact that Ray guns On
cameo fact the UK Defense Attache to the United Arab
Emirates Group Captain so obviously the u A United Emirates
is a desert country. The guy who's the UK defense
Atta has the name Group Captain Sandy sandy Lands. I
(21:29):
got a photo of them, Captain Sandy Sandy I was
I was Sandy Lands, by the way, word of the
week at the moment. But Group Captain Sandy's already enough
and he works out in the sand country United Arab Emirates.
Group Captain Sandy sandy Lands periods out there with Lord Brain,
(21:51):
even even if he wasn't a group captain.
Speaker 5 (21:54):
Calling your kid Sandy sandy Lands, he's crazy.
Speaker 1 (21:57):
The color of this guy's goatee and hair was Sandy
as well. Wow, Group Captain Sandy sandy Lands working out
in the UA. It's like, wow, we what a time
to be alive right now. Great name to be the
(22:17):
attached to a sand country. It's like, wait a minute,
you're telling me the guy's working out this group of
Captain Sandy sandy Lands. So yes, it's back an emergency
breakout edition of nominative determinism. We've had some great ones
before on the show.
Speaker 8 (22:35):
My uncle was one William Toombs and he was an undertaker.
Speaker 9 (22:40):
My son surname is Path the double R.
Speaker 1 (22:43):
He's a mechanic.
Speaker 9 (22:44):
We had a general surgeon by the name of John Hack, Michael,
dentist by the name of Darry Cutmore, and a lovely
GP by the name of doctor d spelled dee A
t hat you know.
Speaker 2 (22:54):
It was a blacksmith and his name was Deetmar Fleckma.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
But now it's group Captain Sandy sandy Lands. All right,
who do you know whose name is their job?
Speaker 3 (23:06):
Christian Connell Show pod.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
We've just realized the military guy I saw on the
TV news yesterday, the UK defense attash to the United
Arab Emirates. Group Captain Sandy sandy Lands works in sandy Lands.
I've only got it. It's it's still like mind blowing.
It's not the matrix un exposure Group Captain Sandy and
(23:33):
he's in a sandy Land named Sanderland. He's the other
bit Lord brain doesn't get any bigger. This is called
nominative determinism, the theory that your name subconsciously influences the
choice of job you have like this. Christian, right, My
productis I just realized Bryce Foothead. He probably goes by
(23:54):
the feed or something like that. Another listener is also
been treated by the same guy as well. It's obviously
very good Christian. My boss in the butchery department of
our local supermarket, Chris Lamb A good one, good one, Christian.
You're right. My surname is Stairs. I'm an optical dispenser
stare to stare at some Yes, yes, yes, Christian, I

that's not true, Christian. I worked with a doctor whose
actual name was doctor, Doctor, Doctor doctor.
Speaker 6 (24:41):
Got okay.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
You, that is quite a common surname doctor. The main
guy who runs Pixar is peak Doctor Genius who produces
and writes a lot of the movies. He's Peaked Doctor.
So I'm willing to believe there actually is a doctor
out there. Great name for a doctor, doctor. You think
you must be sick of that his ring. Yes.
Speaker 3 (25:05):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1 (25:09):

Speaker 3 (27:15):
A Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 1 (27:18):
We're talking about nominative determinism theory, where your name influences
your job. Christian. In Darwin, there's a crocodile catcher Robbie.
Speaker 5 (27:26):

It's a stage name, Christian. My brother in law got
married by a celebrant called Marian Church. No nice epic Marian. Yeah,
these are great, Thank you so much for these. All Right,
So there's a video there's going viral at the moment,
and I wouldn't normally talk about some of this, but
it is so interesting, and I've shown to a few
(28:39):
friends of mine. I've watched it quite a few times,
and actually it makes me a bit sad, but also
makes me happy that I grew up in a different time,
the eighties and the nineties. So it's a video what
I'm about to play, and it's young kids as if
they were in the nineties, finding out about life now
for the counterparts, kids growing up in these times with
(29:01):
mobile phones glued to their hands like us as well,
I'm not judging like us as well, but haven't listened
to this. Wait, so you're telling me in the future,
people just stare at a little box all day inside
and outside. And in the future you don't even own
the music.
Speaker 6 (29:16):
You just pay every month to borrow it.
Speaker 4 (29:19):
Like if you stop paying, the music just disappears. So
in the future, everyone has their own phone and they
use it to type messages instead of call, and if
someone calls you without typing it first, it's considered rude.
Speaker 3 (29:33):
Our moms always say don't talk to strangers. But in
the future, everyone just talks to strangers all day on.
Speaker 1 (29:38):
The little box and shows them their house.
Speaker 6 (29:41):
And their kids.
Speaker 10 (29:42):
In the future, everyone's connected to everything and people are
still lonely.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
It's really sad, but there is an epidemic of loneliness.
Actually May made me cry when I first watched it.
I was like, God, this is not really sad about
what we're doing now to our kids and ourselves has
grown up as well. You know, we're just as bad
as the kids. We say, get off your phones. But anyway,
I was thinking about I feel blessed that a sheally
to have grown up in the eighties and nineties we're
actually border was my best friend because through boredom, was
(30:11):
a great motivator to use your imagination or to reach
out and just go and see friends. Nowadays it tastes
ages for me to range to hang out with my friends.
Me and nine mates are going fishing this weekend. It
has taken at least six months. No seriously happened last year.
We start planning it to sort this out years ago.
So what I want to do this morning is to
(30:32):
celebrate a growing up in the nineties. Growing up in
the nineties, in one line for me, it'd be you
just went around to your mate's houses. You didn't call ahead,
and if they weren't in, you just cycled to somebody
else's and then if they were in, you just grabbed them.
And then you went to another friend's house. You would
like pick up a gang. Yes, yeah, and then you
just sort of go and hang around the shops.
Speaker 5 (30:53):
Always missus so and so's Christian home.
Speaker 1 (30:55):
Yes, And you remember parents who were always an adults
were seen with slight fear, trepidation and respect. It was
always mister or missus. Yeah. Now it's your first name, basis, oh, hi, Christian,
the firm mister Christian actually back in the day in
the nineties. Also grown up in the nineties. In one line,
for me, you arrived on time. There was no You
(31:18):
couldn't message anyone to say I'm running five minutes late.
People just presume because everyone was on time. People just
presume if you didn't arrive on time, then something must
have happened to you or you were dead, and they
were just they would just go out without you.
Speaker 5 (31:30):
I guess they're dead.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
There was no as a well, shame what happened to
Chris So?
Speaker 7 (31:34):
And you didn't get a raisin until much later, But
no one really cared anyway whatever to you.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
I can't remember. I hate it now because you always
get that your phone pings, Andy's six o'clock when you saidmit,
you know it's the I'm running late. Traffic's bad today.
Oh who'd have thought at six o'clock the traffic's bad.
Real growing up in the nineties.
Speaker 5 (31:54):
In one line, they don't make kids shows like this anymore.
I was watching some shows with my little nephew, he's six,
and they're very educational, they're very thoughtful, they're very gentle.
They've got, you know, a valuable life lesson back in
the nineties when we were buy television. They were nothing
like that at all. They were completely the most unhinged, crazy, inappropriate,
(32:17):
dangerous shows. The ones that come to mine. In Australia.
That was the Ferrls, which was about a bunch of
feral cats and dogs that played together. There was Cat
Dog about two animals. I remember Cat Dog, Yes there was,
you think it was.
Speaker 1 (32:31):
Also, the barrier to get on TV was really low
these days. You have to have a big concept like
eight seasons or out imagine that. The pitch meeting for
Cat Dog, they're like, wait, what is what It's a
cat and a dog. Great, you've got two season order.
Speaker 5 (32:48):
Round The Twist was the most still have nightmares.
Speaker 7 (32:52):
My kids love it though I've been showing them that
they enjoy the show. They absolutely love it. They have
it almost every day. It's so cool. It's a bizarro
show to watch, isn't it.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
You kind of like it's so strange to understand how
this came into being.
Speaker 5 (33:06):
And that adults made it, like grown paid riders sat
down and wrote.
Speaker 1 (33:11):
These shops seemed to be made with one aim to
confuse young children in the audience and terrify Geme of thrones,
very hard to keep up with what was going on?
So grown up in the nineties.
Speaker 3 (33:22):
In one line the Christian o'connal show podcast.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
Christian, my surgeon's name who operated on me for a
Hernia Seymour Gonad? No Dr g it was, come on,
I want to live in that world where Dr Gonad
is there? You want to maybe you know his group
Captain Sandy Sandy Lands. All right, we're talking about growing
up in the nineties. In one I thought I actually
(33:50):
was starting to play Teenage Dirt Birthdays, this lock he's
made this. Sorry confused, I actually now just want to
hear the song. Does anyone else? I just want to
hear Teenage dirtberg It's such a great song. Let's play
it in a minute. We're talking about growing up in
the nineties. In one line, grown up nineties. In one line,
(34:10):
by the way, Christian, I've dealt with a police officer
recently in New South Wales, Officer Lawless. That's like a
British those one of those TV shows got on BritBox Lawless.
Speaker 5 (34:22):
The detective who doesn't play by the rules.
Speaker 1 (34:24):
But he's been thrown out the big smoke and he's
now in a small one hundrum town or village in
a remote Yorkshire grim town up north where guess what
the sudden spate of killings. But luckily old Detective Lawless
it's there. He picks up the phone. Lawless. That's the
beginning of every episode. Christian grown up in the nineties.
Friday and Saturday nights. Video shops were the king They
(34:46):
were actually Satura. It was all that they were the
kings of the high street. Was the video shop? Please
be kind? Rewind Christian any age on the school holidays.
Sent outside at nine am, I would actually say, by
my parents are thrown out. They were just coming to
go see and just rip open the curtains and dadould
just stand there in that Superman post staring at daylight.
(35:07):
Gorgeous day there. Unlikely you've grown up in the UK.
It was ever a gorgeous doubt that dad, just another grim,
overcast doubt the sun. Get out there, I make something
of it. South Today's son, Come on, get out. They
would throw you out and only tell you to come
back when the street lights come on. That was that
was the permission for me. And you had to have
an entire glass of milk down in one that was
(35:30):
somehow ward off all germs and bugs. I was raised
by calcium santo, thank you very much for that. Growing
up in the nineties, running away from home, but only
going just down the road, remember showing I'm still running away,
(35:51):
you know, And I'd always be I did the whole thing,
I'm leaving now, and then you'd be finally going too
far in case no one came to look for you,
maybe just me that one that threat I could run away,
you know, and your parents were totally unfazed.
Speaker 5 (36:07):
Where you're gonna get yeah.
Speaker 1 (36:08):
Likely, you know how good you have it? Yes, Christian,
I'm new to the show. Grown Up in the nineties
mixtapes it was. It took a lot of a lot
of cognitive load to record music back in the day.
What was it pause, play, record, It's like three different buttons,
give me a little tape counter button. There was a
(36:30):
lot to record music back in the day. Then when
CDs came along and you could burn your own CDs,
you had to be careful because you could be put
in prison for doing that. Yes, you're a legal downloading line.
Speaker 5 (36:41):
Steal a car?
Speaker 1 (36:42):
Yes, yes, yes, Christian. Grown up in the nineties, I
mean grunge and Ren and stimpy Ren simply was a
brilliant show, Shawney, when your best mates live next door
or three doors down, neighborhood mates.
Speaker 3 (36:57):
That's from Chris Christian Connell Show podcast.

Speaker 8 (37:29):
I was playing competition netball and as I went on
to the court, I gave my friend a crossing chain,
so he put it in his pocket. Later that night
he couldn't find it. I just said, asked, Saint Anthony,
Patriot of lost things, how would you let me know
if I was looking in the wrong spot? And I
shone the torch down on the ground once more, and
it was right at the top of my big toe.
(37:49):
Mom's about seven months pregnant traveling to Scotland's and when
she sits down in the plane, she discovers that the
lady next to her is a midwife. So part way
through the flight the water breaks the midwifle Stilive is

be just great songs. Love Shack came on. I'm bopping away,
(38:27):
singing at the top of my lungs, dancing in the
car want I noticed a cop car come up behind
me and then moved to left. I didn't think much
of it. I kept card dancing. I pulled up and
said red lights. Looked over to my left. The copper
was looking at me, smiling. I was still bopping away.
I wound down my window rings to two cops also
buffing away to the same song. Then one of the
(38:48):
cops points at me to look right. There was another
cop car there I had even noticed. I went down
the other driver's side window on the passage side, two
more cops also bopping to this song. Yes, I lost
my line, laughing. They're laughing. Two cop cars and me
all bopp along to Love Shack by the B fifty

lot on business and I used to check in at
the Intercontinental Hotel in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Speaker 7 (43:51):
This love.
Speaker 2 (43:52):
The young lady there used to sort of get to
know me eventually eventually, and one day were one month
we decided to go with the wife for holidays to
the same country and we're stayed at the Murder Plaza,
which is a an area like Barron Bay, easton wise
from Sydney beautiful and we're we're we're lying there on
(44:12):
the beautiful beach, and there's a couple not far from
us on the beach and they were drinking a matai.
I'm not sure if you know what a mattai is.
Speaker 1 (44:19):
Yes, very very strong herbal drink are very.
Speaker 2 (44:22):
Strong, heavy drink, which is very traditional of the place.
And my wife says that there's a couple of there,
the young ladies looking at us all the time. And
this lady gets up and comes over and she says,
are you Steven, And she's said yes, I said yeah,
she was a girl of course, used to check me
in at the hotel. And we're talking about, you know,
five hundred kilometers away from the place anyway, all the
(44:42):
odds well, but this is even better. For over eighteen
months and I'm in Kosamui, Thailand, one of the islands
in Kosamui in Thailand, and I was in the part
that is not a busy part of the castomo. So
there's a busy part of there's a very quiet area
that if you drive across the quiet area, lying on
(45:04):
the beach and there's a couple not far from us
and then drinking mate and I said to myself, Okay,
I'm better get up this time. I got up and
I went over and I looked at and say, my god,
it's Celia. The same couple, the same couple that we met,
you know, eighteen months of a man's in the beach
(45:25):
in Buenos Aires. What are the odds?
Speaker 1 (45:27):
What are the odds?
Speaker 5 (45:29):
Cilia believe?
Speaker 1 (45:31):
What a great story beautifully told, Stephen.
Speaker 2 (45:34):
Thank you very much. I'm waiting for two weeks for
that story, to be honest with you.
Speaker 1 (45:38):
Well, it was. I hope it was worth the way.
It was a great story. It's an incredible one. It is.
It is.
Speaker 2 (45:44):
But I guess this is the kind of things that
happens in life. You never know when you're going to
come across as someone who you know is across your
path sometime.
Speaker 1 (45:52):
Yeah, across the world. Still drinking that, Marty.
Speaker 2 (45:55):
I'm still drinking. I think that was a clue.
Speaker 5 (45:59):

Speaker 2 (47:26):
I have a good day, absolute pleasure you guys.
Speaker 1 (47:28):
Thank you, Chris. Good morning, Chris, welcome to the show. Hello,
good morning, Hello Chris. What's your story and what are
the odds?
Speaker 10 (47:38):
Well, I had my car stolen twice in one day.
Speaker 1 (47:41):
Oh that's a name, man.
Speaker 5 (47:43):
You got to lock up a bit better.
Speaker 1 (47:45):
I mean, you've got to break it down for us.
How did that happen? Chris?
Speaker 10 (47:50):
Sure? So, I was with a girlfriend at a place
in Saint Kilda. Actually, just a bit about the car,
because it's quite a recognizable car. It was a car
that my dad had sold me. It was one of
thirty Brock Special commodores and it had a very special
paint job and so it was quite distinctive. Wow and long.
So the car was star and then outside of my
thought of a girlfriend's place in the morning, and so
(48:13):
I reported it stolen, and I just figured I wasn't
going to be getting it back for a while. Anyway.
Later that evening, I've had a couple of glasses of
wine with dinner, and I get a phone call saying
that the car's been located and could I come and
pick it up? And I couldn't because I'd had a
couple of glasses of wine. So I got my parents
to go down there and fight try and find it.
And my dad went to the exact location where the
(48:34):
car was supposed to be and alas, it's not there. So,
you know, I'm sort of thinking, oh great, I've got
my car back. My dad caused me and said, have.
Speaker 1 (48:43):
You had it back for about an hour?
Speaker 10 (48:45):
Not even not even Christian, not even an hour. So
he's standing around wondering what's going on. The police come down.
It's not there, so that may been made fools of
detect him works to trust themselfs a bunch, and so anyway,
my dad disappears, and then sure enough, about two or
three hours later, they've located the car. I think they
are probably scanning the area fairly heavily now that they've
(49:07):
been made a full of and they found the car
in the same spot my dad went down and there
was like three police cars, there was dogs. Luck, and
so the car was located. But that's not the real kicker.
About two years, not even two years later, i'd broken
up with that girlfriend and had amazingly found myself with
(49:31):
another young lady, and it started Yeah, she was. She
was telling me about this troublesome child that she was
representing in court. Because she was a counselor, she couldn't
give me any names or any places in specifics. But
she was describing this kid who had stolen this very
particular car on a very particular day at a very
(49:53):
particular time, and then he'd out done the cops by
stealing it twice in one day. Was bragging about it,
and she was saying that she couldn't give any details
and said, you don't need to give me any details, darling.
Speaker 1 (50:03):
It was Mike fun Oh that's incredible. So she was
representing the person that stole the car.
Speaker 10 (50:16):
She was a counselor representing that troubled child in court. Yes,
I think you'd had a fairly dark history.
Speaker 1 (50:23):
Wow. All right, Chris, hell of a story. There a
lot of moving parts, but you did it really well.
Thanks recording, Chris, have a great day. Thank you very much.
