Hey, this is the Christian O'Connell Show podcast Friday morning.

Speaker 1 (00:27):
Welcome to the show. Good morning, Alex morning, Good morning,
Rio morning, My word nature a bores of vacuum. Patsy
is off her second day blesser and now sidled in
to second base. This is how radio works. You leave
an empty seat in a studio, it'll be filled by
some very eager producer. Caitlyn somehow mate barrowed your way

(00:50):
into the studio.

Speaker 3 (00:51):
My good morning.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
Wow. Remember the Crazy Crew, Christian and the Crazy Crew.
Every morning from six all right, every Friday we go
around the horn. We go around the team with the
things that we're into at the moment. We call it
double thumbs up. Rio, what's it for you?

Speaker 3 (01:06):
Well, actually bought my first car yesterday day.

Speaker 1 (01:09):
Yes, whoa, Yes, you got a house. You bought a
house couple of weeks ago that you move into shit soon.

Speaker 3 (01:17):
Yes, I've always had family hand me down cars.

Speaker 1 (01:20):
You had mammas. That Volvo I've got to ninety.

Speaker 4 (01:24):
It's the two thousand and four Volvo S forty. It's
coming towards the end of its life, so time for
me to get a new car. And this might sound
like an ad but I promised no money was taken.
There's a company called Motor Scout and I hadn't heard
of them until my friend told me about them. And
they essentially you tell them what car you want. You say,
I want this car, said I wanted this VW. They

(01:45):
go off to all the different dealerships around Melbourne. They
do all the negotiating for you. Yes, you don't pay anything,
so they get a cut like a mortgage broker would do. Okay, yeah,
they get a cut from the deal they just give you.
You get sent like literally sent to your phone the
bids that you get from all the different dealers.

Speaker 3 (02:01):
You don't have to go around.

Speaker 1 (02:02):
You guess what? So you've gone from a v W
when I volts wager? Now, yes, let me guess what
You're in? A golf?

Speaker 4 (02:07):
No, I went photo. I went for the Polo SUV version.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
What you nev for?

Speaker 4 (02:16):
Well, City by day and then you know I'm an
adventurer out on the weekend. Yes, that's what the salesman
sell you look like an adventurous sort of guy said,
I am an adventurous.

Speaker 1 (02:25):
Join the You joined the rest of us dollars with
that TV, I know, like every other free range that
is stay wild, Stay Wild.

Speaker 3 (02:34):
Yes, I've got you know another white city on the road.

Speaker 1 (02:37):
Well, you have already grown up now bigger than gang.
We'll get you in. Your first house is SUV. You
don't have kids. It's only a dullard dan to TV.

Speaker 3 (02:46):
It's a very sensible choice. You can fold the seats extra.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
I do love that as well. I do love being
able to fold the seats down to TV. Oh, it's
so good.

Speaker 3 (02:54):
And good for reseal. Okay everything you put your.

Speaker 1 (02:58):
Hand up before you start jumping in the Bookay, that
made me regret my decision. You might even make it
till seven this morning.

Speaker 5 (03:04):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast Friday Morning with doing double
thumbs Up, where we go around the team we.

Speaker 1 (03:11):
Talk about things we're enjoying in the moment. It might
be a TV show or it might be a movie.
You can text in yours as well. What are you enjoying?
Four seven, five three one oh four three? For me,
it's all about this weekend. It's finally out I was
lucky enough to see it a couple of weeks ago,
took my eighteen year old daughter. Neither of us had
any idea of the emotional roller coaster this movie is.

(03:33):
I'm talking about the Springsteen movie Springsteen Deliver Me from Nowhere.
I love the fact that the Boss has put its
own name on the movie. By the way you think
about rocket Man, it wasn't Elton John's rocket Man. We
got it Ferdie Mercury Springsteen Deliver Me from Nowhere. But
the Boss is in a different mythic kind of category.

(03:54):
The amazing thing about this movie is if you look
at most of the movies that are out right now,
they are either remakes or part of the big franchise movies.
This is an original story about an original. It's a
proper big movie. Jemmy Anna White big ass to try
and pretend to be Springsteen. And I was nervous going
in to see it, even though he's a great act
and I love the Bear, but Springsteen is Springsteen, and

(04:17):
if it done wrong, it's karaoke. You know, you're like, yeah, maybe,
but he does something different with it where you forget
after a while you're watching an actor pretending to be
Springs in embodies Springsteen's kind of intensity, especially is this
movie is about a period of Bruce's life in the
eighties where he's just had his first big album, The River,
and it's about two or three years before he breaks

(04:39):
big globally with Born in the USA, and he's on
his way to start him he can't go back to
his old life, and he's stuck at the crossroads, and
he's deeply troubled by a very very traumatic childhood. His
dad was later diagnosed with bipolar, so he had a
very very tough childhood. So as much as this movie
is about finding your authentic voice and integrity, it's also

(05:01):
a really surprising but very very powerful moving movie about
men facing their own pain and healing. And I was
lucky enough to interview the director and writer of this,
Scott Cooper, who won an Oscar for Crazy Heart with
Jeff Bridges a few years ago. And Springsteen's turned down,
as you can imagine, countless scripts and pictures, and he
went for this one. He said no to all of them.

(05:22):
He didn't want the big, dumb Born in the USA movie,
which would make billions. He wanted something different, And when
he saw a movie about this period of his life.
He went for that one. And what's interesting is I
love Springsteen. He's my guy, and he is he's this
kind of mythic character. Really, when you go and see
these epic three and a half hour shows, it's Psyche's superhuman.
With this movie, it felt like Springsteen's giving a one

(05:45):
last final gift, which is actually he's dismantling his own myth.

Speaker 6 (05:49):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
And it's a really beautiful I didn't know I was
going to see a very moving movie about a man
going and facing his past. And I think right now
in the world, if you look around and listen to
the news, there's a lot of stories of men who
haven't faced their own healing and are taken it out
on the rest of us. This is a very very
powerful movie in a gift from Springsteen. Love for his
music is big energy and it's big performance, but what

(06:10):
he's showing is real vulnerability. And as a master storyteller
that springs seen is this is a real life story
and I think his best story that he's ever shared.
It's a very raw, messy movie, and what a beautiful,
honest thing for him to show us that. It's incredible.
I left. I don't know. I felt really alive and
my daughter and I made an old daughter ten minutes

(06:32):
since she looked at me. She squeezed my hand and
she went, oh my god. I had no idea, and
she was like after she was like the feeling you
were going through your own process with your own dad.
During that, I went, yeah, you saw that. She was
hard not to. I heard you sniffling a couple of
times writing out the past. But it might sound like

(06:53):
it's a downer, it's not. There's an amazing bit at
the end where the screen goes I don't want to
ruin it. But then the final scene is so powerful.
There's no words in him. Sometimes movies do that way.
You get it, you just see it and you put
it all together and you don't insult us. But the
screen then filled with like talks about what went on
to happen to Springsteen became a global star. But it
ends with this really powerful message of hope about going

(07:15):
and getting therapy and healing, where it says Springsteen struggled
with his depression for the rest of his life, but
never without hope or support. And so what a great
way to end a big movie. Know, Yeah, so I
cannot recommend enough. Go and see it this weekend. We
don't get enough movies like this. It's very easy to
moan about all the franchise movies and the endless remakes.
Go and see something original. If you listen to the show,

(07:36):
you're into music with a heart and soul, and this
is a movie all about that Springsteen Deliver Me from Nowhere.
If you do go and see it over the weekend,
please email me. I am desperate to be able to
talk about it with people have gone to see You
don't need to be in a maker Springsteen fan. It's
about something bigger than that. Really, hope you enjoy it.

Speaker 5 (07:54):
The Christian O'Connell Show podcast, Friday Morning, Double thumbs up
producer Caitlin What is it for you?

Speaker 7 (08:02):
Alrighty minds? From Netflix. It's an adaptation of a book.
So it's called The Woman in Cabin Te.

Speaker 3 (08:08):
It's Kieran for this.

Speaker 8 (08:11):
Is this good?

Speaker 3 (08:11):
It's actually great?

Speaker 7 (08:13):
So Zem and I watched it last Friday and she
hates scary movies, so she was like, I don't know
if I can do this.

Speaker 1 (08:19):
So is it a horror thriller?

Speaker 7 (08:20):
It's a bit of a thriller but not it's not scary,
So definitely watch it. If you're a person that's like
my partner, you'll be absolutely okay and it's worth it.
And there's you know, for the people that have read
the book, I have not read the book, never heard
of it, but just take it for what it is,
because it actually is brilliant and it's not one of
those ones where you're like waiting with baited breath the
whole time. It moves at a really really good pace

(08:42):
and it's kier Nightley, so she never does anything bad.

Speaker 3 (08:45):
And also the fact that you just.

Speaker 1 (08:46):
Presume that we're all massacure and Nighty fans. She is good.

Speaker 3 (08:52):
That she's badding.

Speaker 7 (08:54):
There isn't one.

Speaker 1 (08:56):
It's it's hard to think of that.

Speaker 3 (08:59):
I can only think of bend it like Beckham.

Speaker 1 (09:03):
It's only like last couple of years, isn't It's not
like five hundred years ago. Atonement. Atonement was another adaptation
of the book as well. Also Love Actually all right,
we don't actually go through the pres of care and
Nightly I really shouldn't have let you in on studio. No,
it's good, yeah, and you enjoyed it. Is it a
movie or a TV series.

Speaker 7 (09:22):
It's a movie and it's a quick one too. I
think it's like an hour and twenty seven minutes. So
you're not wasting your Friday night going on.

Speaker 1 (09:27):
Oh yeah, I don't waste your Friday night in culture.
You're right, you've spoken like a bogan. Good think about this.

Time in the world. It's no kid, Yeah, you can't
judge you. The guy's got an suv now with nothing

in an suv driving around with no kids. It's creepy.

Speaker 4 (09:59):

Speaker 1 (10:00):
They sure have done some kind of background share.

Speaker 3 (10:02):

Speaker 1 (10:05):
It is not around light suburb and the schools. Alex,

Wonder and.

Speaker 8 (10:19):
It's beautiful stuff. And I found this guy on Instagram.
His name is mister Professor m r Professor three one
eight on Instagram.

Speaker 1 (10:28):

postcoding why he's chosen that handle.

Speaker 8 (10:34):
But his name's Nick Harrison. He's got one and a
half million followers. And what he does is he takes

Speaker 4 (11:34):
You it's really good knowing it's no. No one's singing
this right, like this is a computer that's singing it.

Speaker 1 (11:42):
Do you think at some point in the not too
just in future would have a radio station where it's
AI artist.

Speaker 3 (11:48):
And it's so basack because it sounds.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
Normal, but this sounds human.

Speaker 3 (11:51):
Yes, but part of you knows that it's not quite right.

Speaker 1 (11:55):
Ancient part. Yeah, here for it. I love it, welcoming
you AI overlords. It is very good. And what's his
handy name again? Because nine x five one three.

Speaker 8 (12:12):
Us he has music as well.

Speaker 1 (12:16):
It's under artificial soul to there you go.

Speaker 9 (12:19):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 1 (12:22):
What a mistake I made on yesterday's show talking about
those speakers. I had to complain about one of our
listeners leaving a funny offer on that NERD website stereo net.
Oh yeah, offering to swap his cat for my speakers.
Good deal, and was the rug also part of the
deal that is in the photo the speakers. So yeah,

(12:45):
I actually had to complain and get the comment removed
because I thought that other people who might be interested
in my speakers will just think it's it's a joke. Yes,
I had to complain about one of our listeners offering
his cat for my speakers.

Speaker 3 (12:59):
Who do you complain to you like the moderator?

Speaker 1 (13:00):
Moderator, They apologize to me, Ah, that's.

Speaker 3 (13:04):
The dork move by you.

Speaker 1 (13:05):
No it's not. I'm serious autophile selling speakers. I haven't
got time for time wasters, called La Hudson. I was
not happy yesterday.

Speaker 3 (13:17):
You can't trust our listeners, No.

Speaker 1 (13:18):
Exactly, shame on them. I thought I could though, I
got all excited what I saw a lert like you've
had a comment on your post. Are great? Can sell
these speakers? Nope, that's one of our listeners offering a
cat and will his boy George record collection sound good
on the speakers? Now, I am very concerned about Monday
show because this show, you, Caitlin, Tina, and c with

(13:44):
his leg calf tattoos are all off to get wasted
in Adelaide this weekend. Yeah, Alex, we got a head
of a job Monday. Get the moroncers ready. I'm going
to go to Chemi's warehouse. Get the fizzy Vitman sea
ready hard to like?

Speaker 4 (13:58):
Yes, Look, it is a very ambitious trip because we're
leaving today this afternoon. Then we've got so we'll go
out tonight. Obviously we're going to go to Adelaide.

Speaker 1 (14:06):
I find that when you go away for the weekend, right,
say you leave on the Friday and the Saturday night
is your thing that you're going for, you always go
way too hard on that first night. It's just like
because it's a giddy excitement. Yeah, you always feel terrible
on the day of the thing. And we went too
hard last night.

Speaker 3 (14:21):
You get so excited about Saturday that you get all
sorts up in.

Speaker 1 (14:24):
Yes, she's somewhere new together, you're staying together. Yes, it's
like school leeds were grown ups.

Speaker 3 (14:29):
Airport beer, Yes, seventeen dollars apart.

Speaker 4 (14:32):
But we're going to there's a music festival called Harvest
Rock on the Saturday.

Speaker 3 (14:36):
So flying up today, going out.

Speaker 1 (14:38):
It's a great lino so the Strokes and War on Drugs.

Speaker 3 (14:41):
Yeah, it's crazy and it's in Adelaide.

Speaker 4 (14:43):
How did Adelaide get all these incredible artists Radelaide?

Speaker 1 (14:48):
Yes, Adelaide is a great weekend out. Actually, I really
It's got some great restaurants. So you're all going mm hmm.
So there's you, Caitlyn, Tina and Q.

Speaker 4 (14:57):
Yes, there's already a bit of friction in regards to
the hotel situation, because the setup is we've got one
room with a double bed and another room with two
single beds.

Speaker 1 (15:07):
So what are you staying in? A family room?

Speaker 3 (15:09):
Yes, I guess that's called a family room. It is, actually, yeah,
it is one for the parents, a family room.

Speaker 1 (15:15):
Illegally, your party is in a family room with beds
on that Yeah, you're right, the spine breaker by the
state you'll getting out of this weekend. You'll just be
happy sleeping on the floor. Won't you want an underpass
or you.

Speaker 4 (15:30):
Will probably take you will take whatever we can get.
But they've tried to claim Caitlyn and Tina have already
claimed the good room, which is the kids room, the
two single beds. He left Quentin and I to sleep
top to.

Speaker 1 (15:40):
Tawl like step brothers. It's like playing trains and automobiles.
Those aren't pellows what.

Speaker 4 (15:48):
I thought the rules were you only call shotgun when
you can see something, but they've already called it.

Speaker 3 (15:53):
We're not even in Adelaide yet and they're claiming the rooms.

Speaker 1 (15:56):
So you're sharing a bed with c Well.

Speaker 3 (15:58):
I guess so, yeah, the girls have already claimed the
other room.

Speaker 1 (16:01):
Oh my God, this is going to be Carnagh this
weekend and.

Speaker 4 (16:04):
We have to get up at no we have to
get up at five thirty am on the Sunday.

Speaker 1 (16:09):
But you have not thought that through.

Speaker 3 (16:11):
J flight was a seven am on Sunday, so we
got that one.

Speaker 1 (16:14):
Oh God, that's horrendous. I know, I know, I know,
I not to ever, I hope, but you know what
they're gonna do. I bet you'll get to like midnight
or one am. A girl, we might as well just
push on through.

Speaker 4 (16:24):
Now that I didn't think of that, but I think
that actually probably makes more sense.

Speaker 1 (16:27):
I think it makes no sense.

Speaker 3 (16:29):
It makes more sense of going to bed.

Speaker 1 (16:30):
So I'm now writing off Monday and Tuesday show.

Speaker 3 (16:33):
They were not going to be great.

Speaker 9 (16:37):
The Christian o'connall show podcast, all.

Speaker 1 (16:41):
Right, that's too late to Little Party. This is your
home on the show for your emails Late Lates Party.
You can email the show about anything you've got us
talking about might be on an old podcast. This comes
from Tom Christian and I heard the podcast this week
and you're talking about strange, strange interview questions that people

(17:02):
have been asked. Yes, we found out that Tina who
joined the show this year was, for some reason totally
unbeknown to me, interviewed by our leader who works three
days a week in talkie. I don't have the theory,
you know, And I'm cool with her working from home.
That's okay. I don't think she listens to the show.

Speaker 3 (17:21):
We can test it now, Okay, you're hearing no way.

Speaker 1 (17:24):
If you're working from home to Friday, you're not listening now. Yeah,
I mean you'll get maybe like half eight and then
you do the old Great Show Today guys, love the time,
Great Show Today guys. Anyway, what does she ask Tina?
That was it? Which band should have a movie made
about their lives? And Tina chose Abba and then she

(17:44):
had to cast it as well. So yes, Tom strange
interview questions. I used to interview a lot of people
on my job and always trying to keep them on
their toes. One of the questions I would always ask
is would you rather have bacon for ears or chip
allatis for fingers?

Speaker 5 (17:58):
HM?

Speaker 3 (18:00):
Great question?

Speaker 1 (18:01):
If you eat them, they don't grow back.

Speaker 3 (18:03):
Okay, okay, okay, okay.

Speaker 1 (18:05):
What do you meant to say in an interview that's
revealing about you know? Why you should be hired?

Speaker 3 (18:11):
The bacon for years.

Speaker 1 (18:12):
They don't grow back for me, but they don't grow back. Well,
I hope I wouldn't eat it. I would just by
the way. We also found the show this week that
Rio eats raw bacon.

Speaker 3 (18:21):
Yes, that's I.

Speaker 1 (18:22):
Sort of serious email saying that your risk of getting
tape worm.

Speaker 3 (18:25):
It really kicked off tapeworm. Yes, I don't want that.

Speaker 4 (18:28):
No, but people like I was getting messages from everybody.
I had one person backing me up saying it's actually
they were calling it broke Bogan presciutto.

Speaker 1 (18:40):
Quite a great a bogan shar country Bob please. Yes,
it's just a back of bacon straight off the supermarket shelf.
And the big thing we did yesterday was sneaky snacks.
We're talking about how all of us, if we're on us,
have some sort of sneaky go to snack that will
either have in the supermarket car park to destroy the evidents.
So many of you do this and I don't want to.

(19:00):
So many great efforts to hide as well. Do you
want a guy yesterday who hides the evidents in the
suitcase in the garage lemon tarts? Yes, so away from
kas who has a maxim on the way home when
filling up the cast so she can hide it under
paying for the fuel. It's not itemized. A lot of
you were anonymous six pack of donuts and coals polished
off on the drive home. Evidence is put inside the

(19:21):
ute toolbox and dumped at the worksite bin the next day.
Joanna the small packs of mixed nuts from Audi the registers.
I would always dump them in the bin outside Audi.
And then I love this one Christian. This is again anonymous.
It came in yesterday evening. My secret snack comes in
the early days when I used to be a professional boxer.
I was always trying to make weight for one of

(19:43):
my fights. But I love donut King now. Back then,
Donut King at high Point used to make the best
Christmas style donuts around the festive season. We're talking cream,
icing sprinkles. The works. I had a friend that used
to work there. Bear in mind this guy is a
pro boxer, is the Australian Rocky. So to not have
any possibility of my coach catching me, I used to

(20:03):
meet my friend after his shift at the upstairs car
park in a dark corner to make the transaction best
doughnuts of all time I regret nothing, but my coach
must never know. I must remain an anonymous donut king enjoyer.
If you have any more of these secret snacks, I'm
here for them. Please email me Christian at Christian O'Connell
dot com dot A.

Speaker 9 (20:23):
You the Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

Speaker 1 (20:27):
Next Friday cannot come soon enough, you must be Oh

We're gonna go and check out twelve apostles. Yes, yeah,
get a high car, lit a budget high car. The
brothers got a little tour round the States. Maybe go camping.

Speaker 3 (20:52):
They better hurry up. Those apostles are dropping like.

Speaker 1 (20:54):
Fire their time they gether, there only be one of
them left. All right, we're going to start something now.
That's so Australian. This is a term I say quite
a bit on the show. Actually that's so Australian because
I don't think you realize quite how eccentric this country is.
And and well where from England is exactly saying, we
have our own weird sort of ways of being a
rituals now. But there are so many things that happen

(21:15):
on the show where we hear about where I find
myself muttering that sole Australian straightly, where I can tell
you what I consider to be uniquely behavior that is
Australian shower beers.

Speaker 3 (21:25):
Oh really, yes, wow, yeah, we're ahead of the curve.

Speaker 1 (21:29):
Yeah wow, yeah, yeah, you're right, you're right. What has
Australia done for the world shower beers and also use
in very offensive swear words but as terms.

Speaker 4 (21:38):
Of endearing yes, yeah, I learned that the hard way
in America because there are some words we throw around.

Speaker 1 (21:44):
They really don't like. One of the ones you guys
chuck around, That one that you guys use as a
form of punctuation, they really don't like. I hate it,
the affronted. Also something else that so Australia is having
very obvious names for things. For example, brown snake a
lot of Australia. The way it's been named is like

(22:05):
a ten year old child got some cranes out that went,
can you names for this thing that's a brown snake,
and that's a carpet snake. And then there's tasty cheese,
tasty cheese. I remember the supermarket I went and went
called it tasty cheese. It's I mean that meeting that
they had in the brand development team, it is taste.

(22:27):
Can we just called it tasty cheese meeting done well?

Speaker 3 (22:31):
I've never noticed sometimes it takes an outside.

Speaker 1 (22:33):
Of tasty cheese brown snake because it's brown and the
carpet snake. So yeah, that's that's that's mine. That's so Australian.
What do you think is uniquely Australian behavior?

Speaker 4 (22:45):
Mine, and correct me if I'm wrong, But it's got
to be wearing no shoes at all when you go.

Speaker 3 (22:50):
To the supermar O.

Speaker 1 (22:51):
My god, I can't believe that this is in the winter.
It's not even like the middle of the summer.

Speaker 4 (22:55):
Yes, yeah, and I mean even as an Australian, I
never thought it was weird. Again until I went overseas
I saw no one doing it. And then you come
back and you go, hey, is that kind of gross that.

Speaker 1 (23:03):
We don't wear shoes at the super was a guy
in my Jimmy Ester who walked into the gym's shoeless
and then starts getting on the squad right where he's putting
massive plates on like twenty twenty five and doing squats,
just just.

Speaker 4 (23:14):
Feat We have great contempt for shoes in a stree.

Speaker 1 (23:19):
You don't like the shoes.

Speaker 3 (23:21):
Yeah, I don't know why.

Speaker 1 (23:22):
I can understand if you're up on the Gold Coast,
but we're in the urban city. It's it's raining, it's
like weird weather at the moment. It's not baking hot summertime.
No shoes. We just love to let those just walking
down the street as well. Yeah, yeah, I never thought
about it, Alex. What do you think is that's Australian.

Speaker 8 (23:38):
It's funny you said snakes because really skinny guys. A
great australianism is he's got shoulders like a brown snake.

Speaker 1 (23:44):
Quite low. Good one. I love that one. I heard
that one.

Speaker 8 (23:47):
But Bunning's sausage sizzle is my probably favorite one.

Speaker 1 (23:50):
It's so Australian. Yeah, that is all right? What else
have you got them? What is so Australian? You can
text us your ones oh four seven five three one
oh four three, and you can also give me a call.

apply for your papers to emigrate to Australia, there should
be like a welcome back. And I don't mean like
the beaches and what's you know how to park your car?

idea that the nutbush was the thing until Jim and

All right, people's played us hit in five minutes time.
And then I want to explain one of You know,

(43:12):
sometimes in life you're just you're just doing something and
then suddenly a random moment from your past pops up.
You know, what the hell? Why am I thinking about that?
It was just that I accidentally injured a teacher once
when I was thirteen at school that time, I'm but
poor mister Saul, and he fell over. And I know
what am I thinking about this? Now? I'm doing the
vacuum in the kitchen. I'm trying to get right under

(43:33):
the fridge doing that coletting things that get rolled under there.
So one other stories of you accident accidentally injuring a teacher.
I know a lot of teachers work very very hard,
and they listened to the show. I don't mean to upset,
and I do not condone the injuring of teachers. Okay, however,
if you've accidentally injured a teacher, what happened was at

(43:56):
my school, they used to have these very large sort
of pillars, metallic pillars. And this is before of us
are the Internet and iPhones. Lots of fun to be
had hiding behind them and leaping out and scaring the
bed out of your mate. It's a good guy. I
was waiting for my friend Toby. I leapt out, not Toby.
Mister Saul, a very frail, small scared teacher on the verge,

(44:19):
poor guy of a breakdown. I believe he was just
having is just having innocently a cup of tea. I
leapt out Rah, he goes up in the air, lands
on him, scolding him as he collapses into a heap
on the floor. No mug smashes next to him. Oh, so,

(44:41):
have you ever accidentally injured a teacher?

Speaker 9 (44:46):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 1 (44:50):
We're looking for your stories right now. Have you accidentally
injured a teacher? Christian, I was a personal protecting training class,
accidentally kicked the instructor in the balls. He had to
get an applance to hospital. He was in that much pain.
We were concerned he might not go on to have kids.
But update, he has got three kids. So we're all

(45:12):
on beta breath there. Thank you. But at least your
skills are strong. If you can take out the instructor,
he's done a good job, very good for you know,
when the student is already the teacher must disappear. Job
sent Many years ago, about twenty odd years ago, I
was in a show, this kung Fu Master, and during

(45:35):
the interview he said, yeah, he's developed all these kind
of very very strong superhuman powers, and I was like,
what do you mean. He goes, well, I can actually
using my inner gee suck my testicles back up into
my body and you could kick me between my legs
and it wouldn't hurt me. So so I said to him,
let's do that now. He went fine. He then did

(45:58):
these really noisy breathing exercises. Right, goes into a four
stance while I go round and under the counter, might
be using counting on three. Kicked him and I swear
to god, nothing happened. Nothing happened.

Speaker 3 (46:12):
That's amazing.

Speaker 1 (46:14):
Sorry, that was on radio, Bruce Laker. Did they could?

Speaker 5 (46:18):
He?

Speaker 1 (46:19):
I think this is a man called Chris. It doesn't
soundn't you go, Grand kung Fu Master Chris. It loses something,
you know? It was like sense ud Gower. But sorry,
did you say Chris Chris? Chris? Anyway? Sorry? Yeah, just
past and past. Paul Christian. When I was a kid

(46:41):
playing kick to kick back in primary school, when a
teacher on yard duty walked through the middle, I fancied
my chance to get the ball over the top of
the teacher's head, but sadly went straight to the sight
of his head.

Speaker 3 (46:51):
William tell.

Speaker 1 (46:55):
Adam was on the line. Adam, he got a story
about injuring a teacher as your son, Yeah, it.

Speaker 14 (47:00):
Was my son. Yes, So last year playing footy on
the oval, one of his mates kicked the ball. He's
running back with the flight, not looking where he's running,
looking at the ball, obviously jumped up to take the
ball quiet with a teacher. She ended up with a
fractured shoulder, of broken ribs, a broken nose from where
her glasses hit her in the face, and ended up
having a couple of months off school.

Speaker 1 (47:20):
Oh my god.

Speaker 14 (47:21):
Yeah, so the conversation when the principal called us was
quite interesting. Obviously he wasn't in trouble, but his takeaway
from that was I need to watch where I'm going.
But oh I still took the mark, so he was pretty.

Speaker 1 (47:33):
Happy with him. Probably just been signed up by the NRL.
Is he playing now for Cronella?

Speaker 4 (47:37):
You actually coached in footy. It's very brave to go
back with the flight. So she's done the right thing.
He's done the selfless thing.

Speaker 1 (47:43):
Like I'm sure that poor teacher didn't send out that pard. Yeah,
what a collision. Addam an amazing story. Thanks to courten
Have a good day. Thank you. Jordan welcomes for the show.

Speaker 13 (47:55):
How are you going?

Speaker 1 (47:56):
I'm good Jordan. So stories about accidentally injuring a teacher.
What happened?

Speaker 13 (48:01):
Yeah, me and my mate so I think it was
a year nine known for being class pouns, and we're
doing woodwork and come around the corner and skied the teacher,
not realizing he was using the drop saw and his
fingers off.

Speaker 1 (48:19):
You got to go and get that special sand bucket.
Sand don't you put that down? At least you cannot
be surprising people in the middle of a woodwork lesson.

Speaker 13 (48:28):
With later on they couldn't get reattached.

Speaker 1 (48:32):
Oh no, are to teach woodwork when you've got a
wooden hand? That that was the next week's lesson. You
had to make him a brain new.

Speaker 9 (48:45):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 1 (48:48):
Your stories on the show right now of accidentally injuring
a teacher, that's wants some chasing Christian unfortunate incident. Back
in the tech school days, we used to throw fruits
over the wing of the school block. Sure do you
remember school blocks? Isn't that phrase? The school block? You
used to have like t block and block sank language

(49:10):
of prisons out what the line we used to throw
through over the wing of the school block. This particular day,
a teacher sadly the recipient Granny Smith straight to the
top of the head, solid like a cricket ball. Oh
my god, the toughest of the wall. If it's a
pink Lady Jazz, yes, fine, but not the classic Granny Smith.

(49:36):
Miss Lampoonie was her name, Poor old Miss Lampoonie. School
it is Miss Lampoonie. Boys stood on watching in horror
as it assembly. The next day, principal gets up and states,
we know who did this. It'll be less here if

(50:00):
you con they all spoke like that, didn't they? You confess?
I had to stand up. I confessed. I am s yes,
it should have been spider, because one in your school
with your mates doing that. Maybe a Monday show, I confessed.
I've got a few of those stories where okay, alright,
Then if the person in the culprit who did that

(50:21):
isn't going to do it, then the whole class is
can stay late and everyone looks around at you. Get up, God, Rio,
you've injured the teacher. Was it one of your debate champs?

Speaker 5 (50:31):
It was?

Speaker 3 (50:32):
He was in the English department, doctor styles.

Speaker 1 (50:35):
Now he who was someone went to a nice school.
We had doctors there. Wow, he was the.

Speaker 4 (50:42):
Oldest man in the world. There's no other way to
describe it. Yes, yeah, he was sort of like something
from a Charles Dickens book. Oh wow, just sort of
sort of drifted like a ghost around the school hall, hunched.

Speaker 1 (50:53):
Over yesney classes.

Speaker 3 (50:55):
Yes, sat just on the bridge of his nose.

Speaker 1 (50:57):
Hated kids. Yes, those generation eighties and nineties teachers didn't.
Long of them were ex military and they didn't. This
was not their prime. Yes, they were not doing what
they wanted to suddenly that to deal with kids.

Speaker 3 (51:11):
Yes, and they've got military energy.

Speaker 1 (51:13):
Who knows what flashbacks, they're dealing with, foxholes in their minds,
and there's unrowly little smart asses like u Rio.

Speaker 4 (51:22):
For some reason, he was also doubled up as our
cricket coach, even though he showed absolutely no interest Inness whatsoever.

Speaker 1 (51:28):
But they all had to have two disciplutes, didn't they.

Speaker 4 (51:30):
Yes, there had to be an English teacher and then
I don't know, a cricket coach was always.

Speaker 1 (51:33):
Really the javelin coach. Here the French teacher.

Speaker 4 (51:38):
And we're doing a practice game one day on like
a Wednesday, training and he was at the square leg
umpire and I bowled the ball to Rob Currier, short
pitched ball, perfect like Ponting esque pool shot. And I
can still see it happened in slow motion. You know
exactly what's going to happen as soon as it comes.

Speaker 1 (51:54):
Off destinya fights, you know it does. It's not that
Granny Smith or Miss Lampooni's head.
