Speaker 3 (00:02):
Hey, this is the Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 4 (00:09):
Good On in Riou, good on in Pats morning, Good morning,
Alex Cullen. Good morning now, Alex. First of all, I
am sorry to hear that yesterday the company deliberately didn't
pay you. They've obviously been listening and thought, look, it's
a performance job. When's he gonna wake up and give
us something other than Kanger's hangers? That was what I

(00:31):
was going to talk about. This is why they said,
you know, maybe next month we'll revisit how he's doing.
But you didn't get paid. And it's not been it's
not been a Brassic year for you.

Speaker 5 (00:45):
It's you know, like it's a hobby. That's right, you know,
like we need to feed our family.

Speaker 4 (00:50):
That's exactly right.

Speaker 6 (00:51):
And I haven't had a pay packet for about six
months now, as you will know, I.

Speaker 4 (00:56):
Was those hot wheels. I'm now thinking you stole them
from a kitchen somewhere when you said you got them
from some guy in Richmond, obviously a diala the dark web.
Not quite, not quite.

Speaker 6 (01:09):
We got it cheap though, you know, that's that's that's
the deals you get on the the hot.

Speaker 4 (01:13):
Whales deals of the week with Alex colored market prices
on hot whales. So you didn't get paid, no, not
for a while, no, no, no, no. That when you
don't have a job, obviously that's the what it goes.
But you've been working here were you now? Week five?
I didn't you get paid? No? So how did you
realize finally that happened?

Speaker 6 (01:32):
Well, there were just a few technical things and I hate.

Speaker 4 (01:36):
Those seventy dollar cocktails you got the weekends who winched
your account?

Speaker 3 (01:39):
That?

Speaker 4 (01:39):
Don't blame the corporate company we work for, No.

Speaker 6 (01:43):
But and just I just sort of goes through and
don't really, I guess get into these technical things.

Speaker 4 (01:49):
And most technical of all things money to pay for groceries.

Speaker 6 (01:55):
But now we finally got it sorted. Uh, and it's
in my account and I'm very happy with that.

Speaker 4 (02:00):
Around the force and then let me just tell you, now,
this is the first inkling of how it is with
this strange company that we work for. Right, I got that,
I got that sense.

Speaker 7 (02:09):
Yeah, Alex came into like the studio where all the
producers were.

Speaker 4 (02:12):
A kind of like the ballpit. Though yeah, they call
it American. It's like an American thing out there in
the ballpay. Yeah, it's like a baseball. It feels right,
doesn't it? The pit? Yeah?

Speaker 7 (02:22):
Yeah, He goes, Hey, do you guys get Did you
guys get paid?

Speaker 4 (02:26):
That's awkward. Last week I get the feeling that his
wife had been texting him and there going can you
ask the other employees if they've been paid? Have you
just are you working for a non for profit.

Speaker 5 (02:40):
Profit so we won't see you busking on the streets today.

Speaker 4 (02:46):
I think it was very close, very close, close, just singing, playing,
just singing, singing old timey tunes.

Speaker 3 (02:55):
Christian O'Connell show go on podcast, which is Rio.

Speaker 7 (03:00):
I am a big winner. I am in my happy
place for the next four weeks, actually starting last night,
because there's a new Normally Survivor only has one season
a year. It's at the start of the year after
the tennis this year bonus surprise season that just started yesterday.
I am a huge, huge, huge Survivor naughy. I've watched

(03:22):
every episode of every season from I.

Speaker 4 (03:24):
Got a lot of friends of mine that don't watch
reality TV, but watch Survivor. It is it's smart, yes,
it's strategy and it said, it's really a great watch.

Speaker 7 (03:34):
It's so good. I've been obsessed with it since I
was like a teenager. I've wanted to go on the
show my whole life as like my dream.

Speaker 4 (03:40):
Have you ever tried to?

Speaker 7 (03:41):
I have applied every year for about five years.

Speaker 8 (03:43):
You're well, even when you been working on the show,
because they feel actually film I think in July when
we're normally on radio filmed.

Speaker 7 (03:55):
It's filmed in Samoa, right, Yes.

Speaker 4 (03:57):
The American one is filmed in Fiji. Yes, yeah, because
it was the island where we were over the last
break we had. We were on this island just of
Fiji and this island next to it, they were filming
the America.

Speaker 7 (04:11):
That I would love to go there. And this so
this season they've got because they've got different Survivor franchises
all around the world, this is Australia versus the world.
So at the moment, it's team seven Australians versus some
of the best all stars from all around the world.
And they've never done an international series like this.

Speaker 4 (04:30):
Okay, I'm thinking about watching it. I've never seen Survivor.
Would I enjoy it? You?

Speaker 7 (04:34):
I think you would love it because it is it
is like it's betrayal. It's strategy. It's also got something.

Speaker 4 (04:41):
Like sounds like breakfast. Yes, actually I get enough of
that though during the day there are a lot of
that is what I need. Pressure is going to go
through the roof. It just start to remind me of work,
and in particular Patsy. When you said portrayal, notice she
blinked in the Perhaps.

Speaker 7 (04:56):
Patsy would thrive in Survivor because it's all about they say,
alliance is turning on your life, knives in the back, knives.

Speaker 4 (05:05):
Kniveshere, seven knives. That's the past story, isn't it? You would?
Have you ever watched it?

Speaker 5 (05:10):
You know, I've never seen an episode.

Speaker 7 (05:12):
It's worth watching this one because this is a much
shorter It.

Speaker 4 (05:15):
Started last night, so I'm going to watch that today, Yes,
please please.

Speaker 7 (05:18):
And it's got annoying Americans that you can hate and
then Australians who you love.

Speaker 4 (05:22):
It's awesome and there's no more Jonathan Lapali. Now that's
what I want to talk about because all the coliments
is the last weeks. All I've seen is his headlines
that he's been acted.

Speaker 7 (05:31):
Yes, Jonathan Lapolia has been hosting it since. I think
the last movie is to show. He is the show,
and people seemed good on there. He's awesome. Guys love him,
girls love him because he's absolutely jack.

Speaker 4 (05:45):
He wears nothing tight T shirts right or they've shunk
out that he's got no home oil conditioner or watching
facilities out there on that and wiry arms, yes, yes,
very whyy sinewy Yes, yes.

Speaker 7 (05:58):
He said, popping out out of his shirt, so you
can see the appeal. He's also very funny, very smart.

Speaker 4 (06:03):
Why is he gone?

Speaker 7 (06:04):
Well, apparently they're going for a younger.

Speaker 4 (06:07):
I mean he's the ponytail in the publicity shop. David
Gonad David gannat so too, isn't he?

Speaker 7 (06:16):
Yes, he's one. He's won Survivor once and he's won
an American reality show as well.

Speaker 4 (06:22):
Do you know what he won? He won Deal or
No Deal in America, won the biggest reality prizes ever
nine point seven million.

Speaker 3 (06:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (06:29):
Great, he doesn't island.

Speaker 7 (06:32):
He bought the island.

Speaker 4 (06:35):
I've got my own island.

Speaker 7 (06:37):
But people are angry because people love They're gone for
a younger, hotter man.

Speaker 4 (06:43):
Right, Okay, so how was it yesterday?

Speaker 7 (06:46):
It was great. It's so good because you I've never
seen these American players, Americans South Africans kiwis and they're
coming up against all the Australians, so there's almost like
an Olympics of survivor. It's awesome.

Speaker 3 (06:59):
Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 4 (07:02):
Were You're Monday Win or Loser? Yesterday I was looking
on Facebook marketplace, so you can go from being a
winner or Loser's time pace this crazy Facebook marketplace greater
there and if you need to get furniture, you can
make some huge savings. But there's a lot of just
people are crazy on there. Yes, yeah, it means like

(07:22):
it's a snapshot of how we are as a society
and it isn't good. It just isn't good. Angry crazy people.
Do you want it or not? I just want to
know how near you were to me? You said you're near?
How near can I come in? Anyway? Yesterday I matched
to find the same person who was selling a second
hand couch and I need to get my twenty one
year old waugh to Ruby's second hand couch. We're moving her.

I think it's for the twelfth time in the last
two and a half years. I'm not even joking. We
went through yesterday. This is moving number twelve. So in
a week and a half time and social needs and
furnitures and unfurnished plans we're moving into. So I said,
you know, we'll get your let's look for a second
hand couch and then all one. The price was like
really good. She liked the color, and she said, well, look,
you go around and if you like it, you get No, no,

(08:07):
it's your couch. I could do all that, but you
need to go and sit on it. You need to
see what kind of couches. But couches are very deceptive.
It's not just a photo because the couch picks you. Yeah, no,
it does, because how many times it's like you're going
to buy a new couch you like gold locks and
three pairs. You know he's someone No, I don't like it,

(08:27):
and your partner goes, no, no, I love this one. None,
it's too farm and then doing it too soft? Some
people like it medium, some people want it rock hard. Yes,
some people do. And she was like, it's half a
I'm so tired. When you're twenty one, you can't be
tireder than me.

Speaker 7 (08:42):
What responsibilities?

Speaker 4 (08:44):
Guy said it, When we don't get a couch, where
do we go? Now, get in the car. And then when
we go around. See this couch, right, and there's a
so my daughter's twenty one, and there's this kid who's
twenty who's selling it for his dad's company. I don't
know what they do, but he's a charming young man.
And people that age, they there's like there was like
a strange there was attention there. He saw her and

(09:06):
he just changed. He just changed. And I was like
an observer watching and I was like, this is so fun.
He's like, go and get in the car. What do
I do? He was like speaking to me, and then
his eyes were just over at my daughter, and I
kept going to do you want to sit in the couch?
And she was just like okay, and then they were

(09:27):
just like they just didn't know what to do with
the space. Yeah, yeah, so she did. Well, yeah, I
know why I was there, rere So anyway, getting the couch.
I got in the car and we drove away, and
she went, do not say I have a boyfriend. I said,
I just some vibes hanging there, some vibes hanging there.

(09:50):
As he's delivering the couch next week, why didn't you
come back for dinner? And suddenly wee I got a boyfriend,
We're not doing this. You're not matchmaker or something. Patsy,
how was your Monday yesterday?

Speaker 5 (10:02):
Yeah, it started out not so good but ended up
good because I accidentally left my phone in a shop.

Speaker 4 (10:11):
You may be the whole world bloody things.

Speaker 5 (10:13):
It's worse than an entire handbag. And I didn't realize
till I went next door into another shop when I
went to pay, and I thought, oh my god, because
I didn't have my purse. I was just paying Apple
Pay and I thought, where's my phone? So I went
back to the car, thinking I'd left it in the car.
It wasn't there, and that's when my worst fears were realized,

(10:34):
and I thought, oh my goodness, everything's in my phone.
And I really hope, I thought, I hope it's on
the office works counter at their print counter. Please still
be there. And I'd been gone probably ten minutes.

Speaker 4 (10:53):
And as I was passing, We're going to get a
real time enact the story.

Speaker 5 (11:00):
As I was coming in the door, I'm looking at
people's phones, thinking is that my phone? Is that my
phone cover? Anyway, ran up to the counter. It was
still there, sitting where I've left it. So that was
a great day because I got my phone back.

Speaker 4 (11:12):
That's lucky because I was worried. We had another two
minutes on it. And also say her story is awful
like that. If you've got notes a situation, I said,
use that inside voice more, you know, just email it
on something. How do you want to or go into
a forum or just put up that bloody awful Alex
your Monday. We're all loser. We got paid. I'm a winner.

Speaker 6 (11:34):
I got paid by this company that I've been working
for for I think it's six weeks now.

Speaker 4 (11:38):
Yeah, so that was a win.

Speaker 6 (11:40):
Also, I'm just basking in the glory of North Melbourne.

how good Harry S.

Speaker 3 (12:16):
The Christian O'Connell Show, podcast.

Speaker 4 (12:19):
Someone listening might a bit of shed some light in
something I just realized. I saw on the way into
work today, going down then the peing like I do
every morning, I saw the flashing lights on the other
side of the pin police car and then suddenly it
stopped at the traffic lights. And I've never seen a
police car with flashing lights stop at the traffic lights
and thinking it is this this dude's first chave. You

(12:42):
don't need that's what the fust answer. You proceed ahead
of it's safe you No, you can go, that's what
the light. Yeah, I know the rest of us, you
know you you gotta get a wiggle on, you know,
five in the morning. If you've got the flashes on,
you've got to be getting some creek. Wait for the
sequence there and the ping. Oh no, it's then then
me right there. Then I've never seen that before in

(13:03):
my life. I was so confused. Is this ken's a
shuddering hold of the lights? Whoa red light? Don't want
to break the law and the law? You know.

Speaker 7 (13:11):
What I've always wondered is when you see police car sirens,
syren sireens, everyone gets out of the way and then
they just they turn them off and they just start
driving normally.

Speaker 4 (13:19):
Yes, what what's the fuse alarm? Yeah?

Speaker 7 (13:22):
Are they getting a carter?

Speaker 4 (13:24):
Shoot shooting outside of me? We're coming now, we're coming out.
I'm gonna have to call them back. It's not backfiring.
They stopped shooting, so whatever they've just got. Yeah, they've
they've gone.

Speaker 3 (13:36):
Now.

Speaker 4 (13:39):
I had a friend of mine who was a murder
squad detector for twenty five years in the London Met
Police and years and years ago, I mean once going
that was flashing lights, right, are they always? He goes
no oft off Friday afternoon and they just want to
get back and go out on the beach on driving
the other side. Now, I'm not saying they do that here.

(14:01):
They don't do that. I don't even think they do
that there anymore. Different time, different time. But you get
it if you could have used the system. They've had
a long week. I actually on a Friday, you just
want to get down the pub. You put the blues on,
don't he stop flashing and you drive in a side
of the road. People are moving over going go get
them and oh yeah we are beers, don't worry, thank you.

(14:22):
So anyway, I want to know the guy stopped, so
does that mean it's a less emergency? But then someone
call Triple zero. They're hoping you're legging it. They're not
going waste, going to be twenty minutes. It's quite few
lights to get through.

Speaker 7 (14:34):
It and be Do you know what they released free Willie?
Was it eighty nine or nine three?

Speaker 4 (14:41):
Or when?

Speaker 7 (14:42):
Did I don't record li four brands? I'm not very
good with taste. Does anybody they know? What's the year?

Speaker 4 (14:48):
Again?

Speaker 7 (14:49):
What's the year? My friends?

Speaker 4 (14:50):
It is time to play what's the year? TV? Shows? Songs, movies?
I asked the team, what is the year that it
came out?

Oh wow, Tom gunn.

Speaker 4 (15:11):
Six eighty six, straight away, no deliberation, he shoots his scores. Well,
no wow, film mark Tommy curies. Oh yeah. It was
based on a nineteen eighty three magazine article called top Guns.

Speaker 7 (15:26):
Based on a magazine.

Speaker 4 (15:27):
And Jay Brookhimer read it and went, we could make
a movie out of this. He went and drove to
this at this academy and was like these young guns
and was just like this, there's a whole movie in this.
I just read an article and it as became well,
two big movies became the highest grossing film of nineteen
eighty six, earning around at the time one hundred and
eighteen million on it just cost fifteen million. Now fifteen

(15:49):
million was a lot of money in nineteen eighty six.
We go now just fifteen million. When you look at
the budgets some of the movies now, they're like two
or three hundred million. Yeah, that's crazy. All right? What
about this? Then? What I will see year for this?
Juran Duran Hungry, not two eighty two Pats Oh yeah,

(16:14):
nineteen eighty two. All right, then let's go to another
movie now strange, Yes, nineteen twenty times Wayne's worlds word
every scene ted pole, Yeah, every single scene funny? All right,

(16:35):
Wayne's World? What was the year?

Speaker 7 (16:37):
It's the most early nineties film ever made? I reckon
that's gotta be ninety one, four eighty nine.

Speaker 4 (16:45):
Ninety five, ninety two. That film so much nineteen ninety two,
adapted from a Saturday Night Live sketch, became the highest
grossing movie won the high scrotching Movies of the nineties.
All right, this is one of my favorite TV shows,

(17:05):
Sopranos obviously for this amazing show.

Speaker 5 (17:12):
I'd say early two thing. Yes, I want to say
two thousand and three.

Speaker 7 (17:17):
I was going to go one.

Speaker 4 (17:19):
Two thousand, nineteen ninety nine, ninety just on the CUSP
outstanding TV show. There's a British writer and director does
all of five now, Amando Ianucci. And he told me
a great story years ago, James Gandolphin, the amazing actor, right, obviously,

(17:41):
Tony Soprano, and he said that he had to get
He was trying to get him to do some episodes
of a TV show he was making, and James he
would like to meet Armando. He'd like some of the
sketch shows and TV shows he'd made Day to Day
and Sad the Lot World with Steve Coogan, the big
fan of it, and said he just wanted to take
him out for dinner to about the project. Actually meet
the guy. Amando said it was like going out with

(18:04):
Tony Soprano. Oh wow, he said. They of course, they
went to an Italian restaurant as he walked in with
James Gonn. It was a big guy, but he said,
like the kindness, like bad. They walked in. It was
like literally like the restaurant around and a table came
out somewhere and it was like in the corner of
the perfect table and Amando sat down and he said
to him, he goes, this must be amazing, Goes, it's

(18:25):
the best in the world. It's the best thing in
the world. They think they're literally meeting Tony soprano. It's
the best, he goes. I'm lucky. I was a struggling
actor for years. Suddenly I just chanced and just roll
of a lifetime. Whenever I am wherever, no one wants
my money. They think they're getting more protection. They get
lost in a character. And he was like, doesn't ever
get Goes, not remotely. Well, you're gonna have the best

(18:47):
meal with the best wines. Just suck it up. You
get a night with tonr.

Speaker 7 (18:51):
It's like living like Pats wherever.

Speaker 4 (18:55):
A soprano? All right, now a song, guy James Blum.
This was huge, wasn't it? And the album was massive?
You know he drove a tank in the Balkans, was
in the army. Yeah, amazing, I'm.

Speaker 5 (19:10):
Gonna say, two thousand and five, Oh.

Speaker 4 (19:12):
Well, keep it on fire? Yeah, two thousand and five.
Someone's inspired by James Bunce seeing his ex girlfriend on
the London underground while she was with her new partner.
The new partner a very old friend of mine. Oh yes,
went out with James Bunce x James Blunt's ex girlfriend's partner.

(19:38):
Do you remember how big that song was? Now? Does
anyone love the music of James Bump?

Speaker 3 (19:43):
Yes?

Speaker 7 (19:44):
Actually do because my mom had this CD and played
it in her volvo that's now my volvo non stop.
So I know all the words to that entire first
album I reckon.

Speaker 4 (19:54):
Now tell me? This is that song about those three
wise men?

Speaker 3 (20:00):
See?

Speaker 4 (20:01):
Is that on there? Yeah? That's on there? What's the
other one about in nineteen? That's in us? They all
roughly sound the same. He sounds like an old sort
of show Goal five Christian O'Connell show go On podcast,

(20:22):
which is talking about James Blunt and this big hit
from two thousand and five. I can't believe this is
twenty years old? How is this twenty two decades old?
How is this like old music that's upsetting? It's this bizarre.
It doesn't sound like old either, maybe ten twelve years
ago when he said James Blunt twenty two decades. Anyway,

(20:46):
I've just seen he's here. He's in Australia in two
much time in October. Okay, he's here in Melbourne's at
the Rod Labor Arena. He's on a very James Blunt night.
Uh huh, guess what night is on? Oh yeah, Jimmy
Blump will be on a Sunday here, wouldn't he does?
He only do Sundays.

Speaker 7 (21:05):
Yeah, it's not a Saturday night.

Speaker 4 (21:07):
Do you think it bothers artists when they play a
Sunday night?

Speaker 7 (21:10):
You know what I've noticed, it's always in bloody Melbourne
all the like. Sydney always gets Fridays and the Saturday
and then they come here on the Sundays.

Speaker 4 (21:18):
What is Yeah? Do you think that's what it is?
Is why they're knock over Sydney first? Yes, through the
big sort of weekend Bobby Downs. The show's there, yes,
and Melbourne not there over Sunday and then we're head
back to Perth and then back to the UK. Yes,
I think I think it is that way.

Speaker 7 (21:31):
I saw Block Party John Cain on Sunday and the
vibe was weird because it's a Sunday and everyone's sort
of you know in you know, getting ready for work,
so no one's washing around or.

Speaker 4 (21:43):
That's why that late kickoff even on a Sunday for
the footy games, it doesn't quite work. Why they're always
poorly attended as well, because a lot of people are
worried about the kids. I've either got got kids, They've
got to go to school the next day. It's a
long night the time you get back home, and other
people got to get ready for work. And also that
everyone has that Sunday sucks. Yes, skin we love our jobs.

(22:04):
I'm blesseds, but you still get that Sunday such like
when I'm packing my work bag, i still believe I'm
getting ready for school. I'm fifty two. When will it
be over? Is that seven? Can seventies? Or eight year
old's reassure me that it'll pass. It's a thirty to
forty year face. Christian used to live right now. I'm
always wondering whether artists hate playing Sunday nights. Yeah, they

(22:24):
must because they must know the audience. No, they've got
to get up and going to work the next day exactly. Yeah,
all right, We're going to do small thing, big rage
after seven o'clock. This is where you tell us about
the small thing that gives you enormous rage. Texted in
four seven five three one oh four three Patsy, what's
the view this week?

Speaker 5 (22:39):
It's an office one again this week, and it is
about the uneven distribution of cuttle rey and crockery.

Speaker 4 (22:48):
How you say that worked?

Speaker 5 (22:49):
Cuttle rottle fish in the office and crockery around the office.
So when I get in and I go to make
a coffee, first thing, all of the mugs are in
one kitchen. If I wanted to peaspoon, all of them
are in the other one at the opposite end. And
if I want a plate or a bowl for my cereal,
it's in the third kitchen. There's like there needs to

(23:09):
be a little bit of each in each kitchen.

Speaker 4 (23:12):
How about this then? Actually, because you're right, that drives
me nuts too, why don't we buy our own unit,
my key or something, and then we have our own stuff.
I will go to aknop shop this weekend and I'll
get a load of stuff for us. Then we have
our own crockery.

Speaker 7 (23:24):
I would love that. It is a nightmare running around
the office. There's never any forks. I don't know.

Speaker 4 (23:31):
It's like we're in a maximum security prison one but
just not allow forks. But I don't think they let
you have nieves either. But there's never any for There's
a million spoons and times I brought like a leftover
in and I'm like trying to use a spoon and
a night to feed shop is secondhand cutlery though, yeah,
we must be that in mind. That shouldn't we clean properly?

(23:58):
Snob Sydney side one second hand Melbourne mouse on his
knife my food. I always say, meet me my my
knife is their knife? You always die? I always say
that I have a laps in tattoo, saying that all right,
small thing, small thing, big rage? What's yours? Or so
if you if you sell out, if you're in the
fort business, we'll buy some forks. We're in the fort

(24:21):
market where there's a shortage here in the company.

Speaker 3 (24:23):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 4 (24:27):
Small thing, big rage? What's it for?

Speaker 2 (24:29):
You?

Speaker 4 (24:30):
Don't go to work angry? Have a CATHARTI release with
us right now. It is radiotherapy texting for seventy five
three one O four three Passion has just gone on
some yet another rant every week. When I said the Patsy,
what's a small thing? Big rage? Is the office again?
This time it's cutlery being redistributed in wrong places and

(24:54):
one side of the office that side of the office,
and Patsy's had enough.

Speaker 5 (24:59):
It's like, can we just have a little collection of
everything instead of all the forks? We have three kitchens
in this Office's first all problems listening three kitchen.

Speaker 4 (25:07):
I mean it sounds like you got I've got three homes,
and I don't know what mugs are in which from home.

Speaker 5 (25:13):
And further to that, the milk also extends to that.
So one fridge will have all almond milk, another fridge
will have all oat milk, and another fridge will have
cow's juice.

Speaker 4 (25:21):
It's like you just have a little bit of it.
I'm with you on this, right, the unequal distribution of
the good milk? Kiss down the court or get the
good milk?

Speaker 5 (25:31):
Yes, yes, no, mug.

Speaker 4 (25:33):
You've been into that kitchen. It is spotless, better maintain
than that dive of ours, which is bizarrely sort of
just round the corner.

Speaker 5 (25:39):
From the men's men's toilet.

Speaker 4 (25:43):
You've ever been to anywhere where there's a men's toilets
and then a kitchen attached to it. Apparently it's radio station.
That's acceptable. I feel embarrassed walking past people like, you know,
making a coffee or cup of tina. You go and
use a toilet, especially if I need to do a
sit down. Join are they going to blow someone's at
a dodgy show.

Speaker 6 (26:05):
It's funny being the new guy learning the intricacies of
a new workplace.

Speaker 4 (26:08):
Yeah, what if you know?

Speaker 6 (26:09):
It's just fascinating listening to this chat because I didn't
know there were three kitchens.

Speaker 4 (26:15):
I thought there was one.

Speaker 7 (26:15):
There's a hidden kitchen.

Speaker 4 (26:16):
There is a kitchen. I've learned that one. By the way,
I one coach economy first car. Yeah, totally, Yeah, for
literally no one who works down there.

Speaker 7 (26:28):
Isn't it weird that there's a whole station down there,
but it's like almost never used.

Speaker 5 (26:31):
Yeah, but where all the cow juice is? So where
there is milk, there's no mugs. So it doesn't matter
that there's milk because there's nothing to put them in glasses.

Speaker 7 (26:40):
Patsy, I actually have a message that I need to say.
This isn't from me, It is not from Christian, but
have had an anonymous team member, anonymous team member, and
this is the one who.

Speaker 4 (26:50):
Isn't working today. Now you know why though, because she's
gone into witness protection for what she's about to say.
As she said, I want to all voices are welcome
on the show.

Speaker 7 (27:03):
Small thing, big rage is the irony that Patsy's lippy
he leaves stains on the cups and I can't find
a clean cup because there's red lipstick all over.

Speaker 5 (27:12):
I don't wash the cups.

Speaker 7 (27:13):
That's dish washer's fault. Oh wow, wash my cup?

Speaker 5 (27:17):
Excuse me? After the show comes down at nine o'clock,
I go down.

Speaker 4 (27:21):
Do you mean it comes down? Hand strike the sets?

Speaker 5 (27:26):
The blind gets drawn. I wash my dishes every single day.
If my Lady danger Mac lipstick is stuck on a
said cup, that's because the dishwasher. Go talk to the dishwasher.

Speaker 4 (27:38):
It's not Is it some cheap thing you got from
the vistl or something on the special or.

Speaker 7 (27:42):
Somebody use it f for towel brilliant.

Speaker 4 (27:50):
I'm not going to up my own range. I'm calling
Chemi's warehouse at night, you know, when the show comes down,
And I didn't know that there wasn't a radio station
off the nine pantsy world? The blinds come down, but
they over closed now until six in the next day.
How is there other people here babbling on? Wow? We
thank you for that, Tina, Sorry, I don't remember that

(28:11):
team member is Christian. When you suggest that you're going
to go to the op shop this weekend and buy
crockery and cutlery for the team, Alex said, oh god,
you do know it's secondhand stuff. What does Alex cunen
do when he goes to a restaurant? Does he use
his own fingers? That's a good point. That's a good point.
They've nailed it better than we go. I bring my

(28:33):
own cutlery.

Speaker 3 (28:36):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 4 (28:39):
Put in a small thing, big rage. What's the view?
Small thing? Big rage? Colin from you didn't put away from?
Is it coming from accounts? Love your TV show? Christian?
When the paper Tawel di Spenser in public toilets a
pack so tightly you can't take one or two. You're right,
you're going to take three inches out? What is that?
Did they do that on purpose? Just gruntled? If that's

(29:01):
your job, I get it, don't take it out on us.
Take it out on the man. This is a great
one from Tim Christian. Small thing, big rage. When you
have to type in your email on a website with
a few letters, it tells you it's not an email,
turning the section and angry red with an X, I
can I'm not done yet, give you a second, Tim.
I hate that it goes idiots. That's not an email, Christian.

(29:27):
I was just trying to find you guys on my
radio here in Sydney and I came across Nova. They
have started doing what are the odds? Oh, no, Sally,
have they now? Well, I'm sure this just is an accident.
But what the bad news is for a lot of
these radio shows that stealed a lot of ideas around Australia,

(29:47):
and there are lots of them, is from January. They
won't be able to do that because we're in your cities.
That's right. If you're new to this from January, we're
in Sydney, so fits and whipper. I'm sure it's an accident.
I like you boys, but if you've just found out
it's an accident, and I'm telling you now it's ours.
We've been doing it for a couple of years. You
won't ever do it again. Otherwise, where are we, guys exactly?

(30:11):
But yes, from January we're in all those cities. And
I know there are lots of various breakfast shows that
steal a lot of our phone ins and ideas. I'm
putting you guys on notice because from January we're in
your cities. Yes, hide for now and for the next
couple of months on us. Christian one annoys me. Is
the start of the role of cellotape. You have to
get a knife or scissors to try and find the

(30:32):
new bit.

Speaker 5 (30:33):
Insane.

Speaker 4 (30:34):
They kind of have a special die or something or
some special way of just making it easier. Yeah, because
you get that thin strip, put it, you finally get
the little new bit, you pull it and then it does.

Speaker 5 (30:45):
I don't need this need a dispenser.

Speaker 4 (30:48):
You do need a spencer, all right. Christian's more thing,
big range. My husband eating the snacks I've taken out
the freezer and put into the fridge for our daughter's
lunch box for her kinder lunch. There were so many
of the snacks around. Please leave our daughters lunch alone.
Laura a very ragy wife and mummy. You're playing a

(31:08):
dangerous game. Fellow, Dad, get the other snacks. You can't
win this. It's bigger than you, my friend, bigger than you,
small thing, big range for me at the moment, I'm
doing that dreaded thing. You've got to go through your
credit card statements for tax time. And the trouble is now,
when you go through it, it doesn't say what it's for. Yes,
it says like Simsam SIAM Limited. And then my wife

(31:30):
gets suspicious to go Chris's this sim Sam isn't a
lady by the way. Oh that's my story. But I
got no idea. I don't know. Nothing is called Spotify
or Netflix, yes it is. It's all these mysterious bank
accounts and caman like that. Nothing's labeled clearly. Ria, What

(31:51):
is it for you? Or small thing? Big race? Mine is?

Speaker 7 (31:53):
I hate? And I'm particularly looking at north side councils,
those speed bumps that aren't the smooth mounds, but they're
those rectangular brick who oh yeah. And every time, no
matter how you can go to a complete stops.

Speaker 4 (32:06):
Australian Ninja in the car. Yes, I always think about
ambo's going down. They were like a sixth person in
the bag and they're trying to say the like, don't
hang on a minute. They're trying to stem an arterial
bleed with a broken deck. He had was athlete's foot
till he gets the hospital too. Isn't a really bad one?

Speaker 5 (32:27):
The suspension on the bulbo not not.

Speaker 4 (32:30):
That big old mummy magnet. It doesn't help it. Well,
do you get the mums that sort of let you
pass or not at you thinking, oh, look there's a
mum in there in this big pop See you know
who's that cool young vowel in town? Yeah? Hellow rider
and we got lo lo lo Alex. What's it if

(32:51):
you mate some thing?

Speaker 6 (32:52):
Big rage taps with senses like when you're trying to
wash your hands or you Sometimes they'll have soap senses
as well.

Speaker 4 (32:59):
Sometimes they'll even have the dryer sense, like an absolute fool. Yeah,
and you're trying to put your hands there, you're sticking
it out and in like just and you wave it
around and then it doesn't register it on those way
You've got to wait it in there for how many seconds?
Oh my goodness? Is that right? The system that we
have for decades of just that towel, the eternal towel.

(33:22):
It never run out. Just give me a towb Just
give me that eternal towel. I always got the feeling
you're pulling it from somewhere else, somewhere else in the world.
It's just a towel around the world.

Speaker 3 (33:31):
The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

Speaker 4 (33:34):
Your way now to share your stories. You could be
winning one thousand dollars. It's always there to give away
on any show. Thanks to Merseyes Benz Barrett for our
call all the week. As soon as we hear a
great story, you win. It's as easy as that. Right now,
there two ways to just share your stories. On thirteen
fifty five, twenty two, yesterday, my twenty one year old
daughter Ruby came back from dinner from UNI. Midway through
the meal, she goes, oh, Dad, there's some bottle of Omo,

(33:58):
one of those big ass too to want wedged under
the passenger seat. I need you. My boyfriend couldn't get
it out and need you to help. As soon as
I heard my boyfriend couldn't do that, I wasn't even
finishing the meal. Oh yeah on it. Oh you need
the hand of wisdom. You need a real man, a
hand of wisdom, and that's lived alves and told one
thousand lives I got. It was like Excalibur getting that

(34:21):
sword out of the stone. I was not I'd be
there all night if I had to. And it was dark, right,
it was like seven o doots, so it's dark out
the front a little bit chitty there. I was on
my hands and knees, okay, doing a reach around. I
had my excuse me. I was on the passion the side,
so I was going left. He was going under right.
He was going on the mack and like a pincer

(34:42):
that they're left trying to feed the right this you know,
this big two leads a bottle almost it was in.
It was like it was living under there, and he
didn't want to come out that spidy hole like Saddam Hussein.
You know. I had to drag him out when they
found him in that little spidy hole. It was perfectly
wedged there and I couldn't. Then he got all the
kind of the guts of the case balls for the
automatic seat adjusts, they're all in there as well. I

(35:03):
was fumbling around. I pulled that out like its scala,
but from the stone, and I held it by my head. Say,
there was no one around the stree. There was no
one there, but in my mind I was like waving
to the gantry, you know, two hundred not out. And
then I went inside brandishing it and actually my wife
and the oh my god, well done. Sadly the first

(35:25):
thing I said on the table while I was staying
and I went today your boyfriend? I sorted it, and
then my goes, not really a flex?

Speaker 9 (35:33):
Is it?

Speaker 4 (35:37):
This is all I have right now? Is it the
only time you've needed me this year? This Omo is
all like.

Speaker 7 (35:44):
That must have felt good.

Speaker 4 (35:46):
I woke up at two am and suddenly remember that
moment TV advert, isn't it the Omo moments? What's your
own momment? You can have that Homo? All right, So
we're looking for your stories. You won't believe what got stuck,
even asking a bigger question, how the hell did it
get wedged under there?

Speaker 3 (36:03):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (36:04):
I just shoving it around in the foot. Well, have
you not been washing for the last three or four months?
Has been under there? Now? I know when you come back,
there's always like as a bag of like dirty clothes.
It's easy to get mom and dad in the auction
rather than get the bottle of Homo out. All right,
You won't believe what got stuck thirteen fifty five, twenty two.
Another story we're looking for today is left behind. Maybe

(36:25):
it was you, Maybe you left behind somebody else. Patsy,
tell us your story about what happened at the weekend
your poor husband Chris.

Speaker 5 (36:31):
On Sunday, I had a one o'clock nail appointment. Audrey
and I were going to get our nails done. Chris
had had a late start, so he was still in
the shower and I said to Audrey, we need to
go go until Dad.

Speaker 4 (36:43):
We're going to get Sunday. He loves to get his
many in pedicule.

Speaker 5 (36:47):
No, not Chris. And she said, I'm not going. And
there he's in the shower. And I said, all right,
I'll just text him if we don't go.

Speaker 7 (36:52):
Now, what is he going to see it in the show?

Speaker 4 (36:55):
Exactly?

Speaker 5 (36:55):
But he'll see it when he gets out.

Speaker 4 (36:57):
She got like a snorkel and his phone in there something.
This is a deliberate it is, I'm sure, and go
anywhere already this go you just like some times yourself
and not.

Speaker 5 (37:09):
Can you blame me anyway? So we were up getting
our nails done and he texted in.

Speaker 4 (37:13):
She heartbreaking what's not on the evil fast?

Speaker 5 (37:16):
Fine? And he goes, where are you both coming out?

Speaker 4 (37:19):
All shiny and clean like a dog has been to
a dog cleaner, you know.

Speaker 5 (37:23):
And I said, we're getting our nails done. And he said, well,
I was actually coming with you so we can have
a family lunch together. And I said, well maybe you
could get you know, say, bringing a second car, just
get an uber up.

Speaker 4 (37:36):
You would have watched other house. He would have looked
out the front. There the car's gone.

Speaker 7 (37:47):
I wouldn't have gotten even Father's Day.

Speaker 4 (37:50):
It couldn't be't But wait, there's just a text here
and that says is screw you?

Speaker 3 (37:58):
Oh my.

Speaker 4 (38:01):
No, it is I read subtext.

Speaker 3 (38:02):
You know that.

Speaker 7 (38:03):
Guys, how would you know you went there in the
house when Christian was walking around.

Speaker 4 (38:08):
Send him a text me? So you could have wandered
in there and just said, hey, come on, we're going
to give you five minutes.

Speaker 5 (38:12):
No, I didn't have five minutes. I had to go.
When you've got an appointment, you've got to be there
on timely.

Speaker 4 (38:17):
What so the phone? And now really is when did
you break your husband's heart?

Speaker 5 (38:21):
Yes?

Speaker 4 (38:22):
Story here? When did you punch the husband in the field?

Speaker 5 (38:28):
He was fine, So we got a new uber and
we still went to lunch when I was finished.

Speaker 4 (38:31):
So when you finished dessert. Oh he's pulling up now, guys, go,
oh they're on dessert. So getting the bill, drive on drive,
just turn me back home, taking me to the revere.
So that's all I'm going to get, all right? So
what got left behind? A beautiful loving father?

Speaker 3 (38:49):
That's one Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 4 (38:53):
I'll tell you what, Alex Cunning. I think we've done
you a favor getting you out of Breakfast TV. There's
a headline. Now, name what channel we're watching. The headline
on under finance Matters is money does not fall from
the sky. Wait what I wasted so much my growing
up life, stood out there every day with a tin
wait for that?

Speaker 6 (39:15):
Oh god, No, when he's okay to spend its, say man,
oh okay, this is amazing.

Speaker 4 (39:21):
I need to get pen and paper. Ra these e
cart told kind of stage wisdom droppings. All right, So
right now and now you won't believe what got stuck
and being left behind thirteen fifty five, twenty two. Alex,
You've got a story for us actually for leaving behind?

Speaker 6 (39:36):
Oh wow, when we were kids, doad had the idea
to get up really early to go on holidays, at
like four am.

Speaker 4 (39:41):
So we packed the car, had the roof rack, put
all the bags on the roof rack.

Speaker 6 (39:47):
We set off in the dark, head through what's called
the Piliga Forest, a big, dark, scary forest. You don't
want to be stuck on this road in that forest. Anyway,
we're going along. We get to the next town about
an hour later. Better check the roof rack. I get
up there. There's no bags there to be saying.

Speaker 4 (40:07):
Through that fabled and dreaded Pellica Forest where the yowie lives,
mind you. So we had to get back in the car.
We had to drive. Your kid is dark, mind you.
The suitcase looking for the suitcase. We should do this
is a game, the golden suitcase. This is a gred
he Actually we should burry it would just hide a
lot the suitcases in a big forest somewhere as scary

(40:31):
for us, the Pelica Forest, blair Witch project, Golden Case.

Speaker 6 (40:35):
We get all the way back to the front gate
of the house and there is my sister's bag.

Speaker 4 (40:39):
So that the entire morning was last time wasted. The
sun's coming up. It was a bleak disaster. So it's
a full start. Yeah, Dad, make you all get up
on it. Just didn't tie things on properly. And that
was that was that, all right, Michael, let's get your
story now. Welcome to the show. Michael, good morning.

Speaker 9 (40:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (40:57):
I was about nine or ten, and after math every
Sunday all the kids would have to meet in the
car or Mum and Dad went and were pillars of
the church, counting collections and making sandwiches.

Speaker 9 (41:09):
Anyway, my brother was giving me.

Speaker 10 (41:10):
A really hard time in the car, so I got
out and went for a walk, very sensible team. When
I came back, the car was gone. So Mum and
Dad had come back, got in the car. None of
my brothers and sisters had said Michael's.

Speaker 4 (41:22):
Not And how many you say brothers and sisters, They
get the feeling there's a big family here.

Speaker 9 (41:27):
Eventually it was nine, but at that point there was
about six of us.

Speaker 4 (41:30):
In the car, just so many n.

Speaker 9 (41:35):
Catholic.

Speaker 4 (41:36):
Oh, I see cut sandwiches. Call it what you want,
Mom and Dad make another kid behind the font.

Speaker 9 (41:43):
The paression's going to provide children and money and nothing. Yes,
So I had to I had to walk home. And
when I got home mum yelled at me because I
still had my church guys on. She still hadn't know.

Speaker 4 (41:56):
You've got to be killing me through the Pellica forest
as well. And Michael, thank you very much for your
cool all right, take care all right? So yeah yeah,
uh Louisa, Yes, Louisa, good yes, good morning, good morning, Luisa,
welcome to the show. Thank you all right. So you've

(42:16):
got a store about.

Speaker 1 (42:17):
Role yes, been left behind thirty years ago when Bunnings
was only just new and it had the kids play
area we have and I am my three year old boy.
We've headed off to Bunnings down at Dee Park because
it was the newest door back then. So we've have
he's jumped out with a little boy. I was pregnant

(42:39):
with my daughter and I didn't feel like jumping out.
So the husband's taken this done to the play area
whilst he went shopping in his Bunning store. So I've
dayed in the cars. Husband's taken the sun, Son's gone
to the play area. Have he comes back out, jumps
in the car. That's the car off. We start to
move and I've turned around and went where's your son?

Speaker 4 (43:01):
I've left the plant that's of the year right.

Speaker 1 (43:05):
There with that stuff that was thirty years ago.

Speaker 4 (43:09):
He's not still there is he's goron up. He's a
man there, he's gone feral. Just him.

Speaker 1 (43:17):
Doesn't work there the sun.

Speaker 7 (43:20):
The New Bunnings, wasn't it, Yes, New Bunnies back in the.

Speaker 1 (43:25):
Day thirty years ago when they first came out, there
was only two one it's one at de Gate one
at Deep Park. That was the only things that had
kids pier areas where you could gump your kids whilest
you're shopped.

Speaker 4 (43:42):
Some and leave. It's a great service. Actually come back
when you want funny. You've got your kids. It's probably
how they make their fortunes.

Speaker 1 (43:52):
Yes, yes, he got left behind.

Speaker 4 (43:56):
Well you know, no, we got that. We're going around
and around here.

Speaker 3 (44:00):
The Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

Speaker 4 (44:04):
I hadn't heard of the legend right of Pillica Forest
Alice Cunnins is obviously near where you grew up. You
were telling us about it, and then Ria has a
quick look online during the News and Sport with you
guys and said, oh my god, Christian, this is actually
supposed to be the most haunted forest in this great
Southern ad in Australia.

Speaker 6 (44:21):
Terrifying. You would never ever drive through there at night.
So we grew up like you know, ten twenty k's
from it. And apparently my dad reckons. He drove through
there once and broke down and saw the pilger yowie.

Speaker 4 (44:32):
He reckons the yowie like a kind of like Australian sasquatch.

Speaker 6 (44:37):
Ye yes, exactly right, Bigfoot, Australia's version of Bigfoot. And
it was like truckies never drove through there at night.
It was just this this, this rule, you never drove
through there at night, because it's genuinely terrifying. It is
thick forest. It used to be a million wild acres
until European settlement. Yeah, and so about half of that's disappeared,
but there's so much more there, and it's so scary.

Speaker 4 (44:59):
You don't want to walk through there because there's so
many trees becomes there's no light that comes through. It's
a density. It's the density, absolutely like it's so thick slid.
But he sounds pretty light about it. He ain't scared. Listen, Slim,
you are doing a gig there at nighttime, See how
brave you feel about it? Then must have been drinking

(45:21):
any time.

Speaker 6 (45:21):
But no, it's it's awful and I'm so happy to
be talking about it because I didn't.

Speaker 4 (45:27):
Know it was sort of so renowned. Yeah, participation. What

but this is week six, ra Alexe Country. Can't keep
calling him heat.

Speaker 5 (45:42):
Alex is right.

Speaker 2 (45:43):
They say that truckies avoid it completely, but if they
are driving through that, they never stop because they why
would you.

Speaker 4 (45:50):
Stopping a big ass forest anyway?

Speaker 5 (45:52):
Just in case something happens?

Speaker 4 (45:55):
Yeah, just keep driving. Strangers are scared of a forest.
This big brave truckies, right, they drive all through night,
all of those those big tons and stuff on a
friend of a load of trees packed tightly together. And
there's also people that live in there. What do you
mean in checks and you're a journalist, it's the forest people, right, Okay,

(46:18):
I'm going to send you an assignment, right, I'm going
to send you out there to investigate who would be
brave enough to stay the night there? And that way
that gave you a thousand, she would do?

Speaker 6 (46:28):
It's going to happen they're revenant.

Speaker 4 (46:32):
Yes, you're going to sort it out by what's he called?
What's it called that you have a waki where.

Speaker 6 (46:35):
It's blair which is driving this d days, I could
better this place. It's like it's terrifying. You just don't
know what's in it because it's so vast as.

Speaker 4 (46:44):
Well, like it's massive and if you get lost in there,
good luck, Calaan. What else you found about it?

Speaker 9 (46:52):
Then?

Speaker 2 (46:53):
So there's been many as sightings, including some people that
claim to have seen it. Yeah, we come out, grab
a kangaroo and dry get back into the forest. They've
also seen big what they it's called, sorry, I'm just
reading it through here, golf ball sized floodlights as eyes.

Speaker 5 (47:10):
They see them pop out of the forest at night.

Speaker 4 (47:13):
It's not that big, really, is it? Golf ball sized eyes?
I don't know bin lids or the size of satellite
dishes and he go, oh my god, golf just like
it's not that scary.

Speaker 5 (47:25):
The whole golf ball is like a floodlight. That's what
they say.

Speaker 4 (47:28):
It's like a small torch. Then I got one of
those my beds. You wouldn't sound terrifying, Okay, I'd love
to see you in there. I would love to see
you there. But what's interesting is that you guys are
all scared.

Speaker 6 (47:38):
Oh no, it's it's also folklore. I mean, there's so
many stories about this. He how so many people have
seen it?

Speaker 4 (47:44):
But how long has it been there for? It's got
a long old lifespan, isn't it? I reckon one hundred?

Speaker 7 (47:49):
So no, it's like an indigenous sacred what's an indigenous character?

Speaker 4 (47:54):
So I imagine?

Speaker 3 (47:56):
Right?

Speaker 4 (47:56):
Okay, so it's just do you think it's more of
an archetypal being?

Speaker 7 (48:00):
Yes, well I believe so that's what I'm led to
the only way.

Speaker 4 (48:03):
We're going to find out if a journalist wants to
follow the evidence, follow the story and uncover the truth.

Speaker 7 (48:09):
Exactly, we're not equipped to do it.

Speaker 4 (48:11):
Were journalists journalists? What about Patch News and sport from them?
Do you know what we need to do? Coming to
find a listener's brain enough to go in there and
find out the truth. Anyone want to call in? What
do you mean we won't see that listener again? You
couldn't pay me enough.

Speaker 6 (48:24):
Honestly, it's terrifying, Like it's I'm trying to describe it
before you. You can't imagine how densities.

Speaker 4 (48:32):

brave enough to spend the night in Pilica Forest.

Christian O'Connell Show Gone Podcast.

Speaker 4 (55:13):
Christian three claw marks. That's Wolverine. Oh my god, we
found the home of Wolverine. Uh. This week on the show,
it's wedding and funeral week. We're looking for your stories.
But what happened at the wedding? All funeral? Alan's got
one for us. Christian. Years ago, I attended a graveside funeral.
So the one hundred or so mourners, we're all sat
as the coffin was about to be loaded now before

(55:33):
the service began, the minister had kindly asked that everyone
obviously turn off or signing their phones. However, as the
coffins started to be loaded, a mobile phone belonging to
a lady in the front of me began to ring
out her ring tone. Oh no, what ah? And you

(55:55):
know what it's like. I've been in service before where
someone's phone goes off and they've got one of those.
It just rings out because of their silence. There's something
more silence and a great side funeral and it takes
some ages to find the phone. They're fumbling. It's normally
some old auntie doesn't know how to turn the phone off.
And I was always once at a funeral where I
swear this happened right. So the ring tone goes off,

(56:18):
they're faffing around for the phone in the handbag. They
get it and then they go hello, Hello, oh coming
after news. Now I'm at a funeral, can you hear me?
I said? It is so good now with a fuel
and everyone's in here. Shash anyone of your stories about
funerals and weddings will get them tomorrow. Christian at Christian
