We're kind of a strange one for me right at
the top of the show, but let's go for it anyway.
There's a listener who emailed me, a podcast listener in
the UK called pauled Johnson. Paul Johnson emailed me a
couple years ago with an incredible story about my uncle Tom,
who saved his life and then Carma came back around
and I'll correspondent Paul saved someone related to Tom. This

(00:47):
story whenever I share it or tell anyone about it
gives me goosebumps and other people I just reduced to
kind of all really, which is why I want to
include it in my book. But I can't n s
I hear from Paul. I've emailed Paul Johnson. It's a
bounce back. He's not on that email anymore or don't
know as he listens to the UK. Paul Johnson, if
you still listen to the show, and I hope you're well,

Speaker 2 (01:22):
You shouldn't have in your sport news and say it's
a good win over the smallest country to ever qualify,
Cureusel five to one. If you beat them one hundred one,
you put it in a sports it is a moment
of shame for the soccer US. It was one of us.
It's a country of eighteen people. If you beat them

(01:42):
one thousand to one, it's a majestic victory.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
Yeah, they's got a goal.

Speaker 4 (01:46):
Not happy, Jen, Yeah, I know, how did that happen?

Speaker 2 (01:49):
I know it's better it happens now though than in
the big stage from the World Cups. All right, it
was one all for a while and I was thinking,
funny if that's the end result?

Speaker 4 (02:01):
Oh they did we lost to them?

Speaker 2 (02:03):
Oh my, You're like, don't get on that plane to
go go me the Kit Boys or Kirous out.

Speaker 4 (02:10):
We've beat Cameroon and Cirous out now.

Speaker 2 (02:12):
Yeah, and then your next week Robert chat before it
all begins is Mexico.

Speaker 4 (02:16):
Yes, Mexico before the World Cup begins in June.

Speaker 2 (02:18):
You know, well I can't wait. All right, let's talk
about it. So this Wednesday morning, let's talk about a
week so far. Three word weeks so far? Patsy, what's
it for you, mate? Well?

Speaker 5 (02:27):
Forty k service?

Speaker 6 (02:28):
When did take in your car, even just for a
minor service become so convoluted, Like I reckon, I've gone
for major surgery and there's been less steps in checking
in at the hospital than there is in leaving your
car for fort right.

Speaker 1 (02:41):
It's so much admins insane.

Speaker 6 (02:43):
You go in, they're very good, good customer service, but
I just really wanted to drop the keys off yesterday
so I could get.

Speaker 5 (02:49):
Home and have a Nana napp. Oh no. You go
to one desk and then they say.

Speaker 6 (02:54):
Okay, we'll just take you through to the service reception
and we'll.

Speaker 5 (02:59):
Get your coffee.

Speaker 6 (03:00):
Oh no, no, no really, I'll just leave my cake.
No oh no, no, we insist.

Speaker 7 (03:03):
So then you go to anything that.

Speaker 2 (03:05):
The amount of absin and bureaucracy you have to do
the moment they get that clear board out from under
the desk. It's never on the desk because they're all
smiley smiley, and they go are you and you can
you just fitt out and the clip what comes out?
And you're like, god, damn, there's about five pages. Oh
that manky old pain as.

Speaker 7 (03:21):
Well, and you get shamed for not having pre filled out.

Speaker 2 (03:24):
The question.

Speaker 1 (03:26):
We emailed you. Did you check your spam folders?

Speaker 2 (03:28):
Yeah? I just can't be bothered.

Speaker 6 (03:30):
Well, when I rang up to book it in, there
was a problem with the back tire, and I thought,
you know what, I'll just I'll just let them know what.

Speaker 1 (03:36):
In particular the problem with the back toe Is it
how you drive?

Speaker 5 (03:39):
No, it's not how I drive it.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
Because we had a demonstration of old miss Daisies. Do
you remember the power our parking chanting going? Why are
the opposite of the speed of sound and the speed
of light? What's at the other end of that spectrum?
It's Patsy reversing a car so slowly it's glacial.

Speaker 5 (03:56):
I've got on dred percent of my driving tear.

Speaker 1 (03:59):
Because I think the guy just died during the test.
You just you just grabbed his pen and filled it out.

Speaker 6 (04:04):
Well, I thought it'd same time when I booked it
in for a service I said, look, these are the issues.
Nothing major. I'll just be dropping the case off. No,
it was like a ten point check with different people.
And then I had to have a copper coffee and
I said, no, really, I'm all coffeed up.

Speaker 7 (04:16):
I don't need it.

Speaker 5 (04:17):
Would you like it?

Speaker 2 (04:17):
And they send you that diagram where they've ringed what's
wrong with the car, And it's like, it's my what
I call dental theory. If you go into the dentists
with check up, they'll find something wrong.

Speaker 7 (04:28):
That's true.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
They show you some photos.

Speaker 2 (04:31):
I don't know. Is that my mouth?

Speaker 1 (04:32):
I don't have any gold teeth. It's that guy. It's
a wrapper. Apparently that's me. I don't have any gold.

Speaker 5 (04:40):
That's the thing.

Speaker 6 (04:41):
And they say cap price servicing. But apparently rotating tires
and changing wiper blades.

Speaker 2 (04:47):
All tires rotat You got a real problem. They're rotating.
But don't worry. We can do you a good deal
on that. It's Tuesday's Anti Rotation special.

Speaker 6 (05:01):
Extra stuff you used to I'm sure used to be
part of just a standard service.

Speaker 7 (05:05):
It no longer is anymore.

Speaker 6 (05:07):
And we're the because we get you know, oh, when
you need to sanitize your air conditioner.

Speaker 7 (05:14):
That's fine.

Speaker 5 (05:15):
The air condition is fine, it's not rank. Just leave it.

Speaker 6 (05:18):
You don't need to do that. That was like another
two forty. Oh it's shocking anyway.

Speaker 2 (05:23):
Yeah, when I got mine done recently, then they were
like the guy you had to pay for all the
sex of stuff you have to get done, or he
was like set, they do that thing where if you
don't deal with it today, anyone was like, I hate
to see it happened to a guy like you. If
you don't deal with doctor's giving you values. If you
don't deal with this today, you will be back and
it will be then they do that thing where they

(05:43):
suck in their teeth and when we see you again
in a strikeo not worse or a whistle a lot.
This will be a lot worse and a lot more.
You were like, oh, you can join the scheme for
the next three years. I know that they start just
throwing numbers and you don't know. This could be the
greatest deal lever. But it reminds me that time when

(06:04):
I signed up to get three three years worth of
free pizza once a week. And then early in our marriage,
I think my wife realized she'd made a very bad
mistake and married a simpleton. I came home from work
one day and I went, Shan, what what's all this
paperwork here? From a very large and national pizza chain.

(06:24):
I went, you don't believe the did I got to
date Sky was going daw to door selling free pizza
for the next three years. Every week. It's free. We
don't pay, well, we pay a little bit for it. She's, well,
we don't want pizza every week. Why have you signed
up for three years? We probably have moved house. Do
you then take the thing with you know you need
to cancer when I'm not cancing it. This is a
great deal. My wife called them and said they obviously

(06:48):
refused to cancer because I'd signed all its extensive paperwork,
but more or less said not making this up. That
actually shame on them, that I was a person of
limited cognitive She's not wrong.

Speaker 1 (06:59):
They gave the money back.

Speaker 3 (07:02):

Speaker 3 (29:31):
It's over, mate, Christian Color Show podcast.

Speaker 2 (29:35):
One of Australia's most famous speeches is from nineteen ninety one.
You would have seen the clip a million times. You
need to see a million more. It never fails to
entertain and cheer us up. Jack Carson, I'm talking about
the comment who was arrested after having a succulent Chinese meal?
Get your hands off me? Oh god, touching my penis?

(29:57):
Oh yes, you know Judo as well. It's been added together.
This has been the speech has been out UNTI Australia's
National Film and Sound Archive and rightly so.

Speaker 13 (30:08):
Know what, gentlemen, this is democracy. Man, have a look
at the headlock here see that chap over their head off.

Speaker 2 (30:21):

Headlocks up? Yes, I see that. You know your judo
and user. Are you waiting to receive by limb penis?

Speaker 1 (30:43):
We lose that one and.

Speaker 2 (30:47):
Getting into the.

Speaker 1 (30:50):
Listen.

Speaker 2 (30:50):
It's okay to say limb biscuit, but not limb. Come on,
we need the Jack Carl and Jackie O sens as
we want too. Lucky anyway, it's in the National Sound Archives.
I'm righty, So we need to form our own museum
of Australian sounds. Sounds of Australia for me, the kooko.
But has to go in. Also, what sounds distinctly Australian

(31:15):
to me is when the lights go ready and you
cross that. That crossing noise is nowhere else in the world.
This it even got sampled by Billy and Eilish's brother
Phineas when they came on tour here. He put it
in bad Guy. Duh, Yeah, what do you think should

(31:47):
be in? There are sound archives of Australia. What are
classic as he.

Speaker 8 (31:50):
Sounds single most iconic line in Australian movie history, tell
him he's dreaming, dreaming.

Speaker 2 (31:57):
I should also just say, along with Jack Carson going
in the actual official one is that's culture.

Speaker 7 (32:10):
It's an.

Speaker 1 (32:12):
And they say there's no culture.

Speaker 3 (32:14):
Well that.

Speaker 2 (32:18):
Get your hands off. They all right, what do you
think is a classic quintessential? Dare I say sound of Australia.

Speaker 3 (32:27):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.

Speaker 2 (32:31):
What do you think is a classic sound of Australia
that needs to be preserved? Put in our museum? Sounds
like Australia. They've actually put in the classic Democracy manifest,
succulent Chinese Meal, the speech from nineteen ninety one, the
great Jack Carson into the Australian National Film and Sound archive.

(32:51):
It's for an audio that has cultural and esthetic significance.
I don't know how this got over the line. Then
that's also gone in. Put it in a time machine,
put it in the fore room.

Speaker 7 (33:06):
I think this is one of the highest selling Australian
singles the whole time.

Speaker 2 (33:09):
Yes, yes, and what celebratory, my friend. It's someone who's
paid to go into this national archive. I'm an American
tourist and I'm like, show me the various finest recordings
that Australia have done.

Speaker 1 (33:25):
A pretend you put on an accent.

Speaker 2 (33:29):

for me. I love the sound of a cooker. Borrow

What's it for you? What's a classic sound of Australia?

Speaker 3 (35:59):
The Ondie magpie?

Speaker 2 (36:00):
Yes, it's you describe that it's a warble. It's a warble,
isn't It's rich?

Speaker 7 (36:08):
It sounds like spring, Yes it does.

Speaker 2 (36:13):
And then for a lot of Australians they get very
scared of those magpies cycling with spikes on your heads.
What a carry on? Now?

Speaker 7 (36:23):
Have you ever been swooped by one?

Speaker 2 (36:25):
Now I'm a friend of magpies. I think there are
two types of people in the world. Those are love
birds and they know. It's like you know when people
get nervous around a lot of small dogs.

Speaker 1 (36:34):
The dogs know.

Speaker 2 (36:34):
They pick up on your fear for our oones, and
you make it worse. If you actually put out good
wishes to magpies, they will be your friend for life.

Speaker 7 (36:42):
You're putting out good wishes to magpie.

Speaker 2 (36:45):
It's a superstition in England, right if you see a magpie,
you meant to salute it and say good morning, mister magpie,
even if it's in the evening. So I lived here
ridiculous country.

Speaker 1 (36:56):
Come and have a look around London.

Speaker 2 (36:57):
You won't see people with spikes on their heads, goes,
We got real magpies of you.

Speaker 1 (37:05):
Thank god, the king's guarded by magpie.

Speaker 2 (37:11):
What do you say again, good morning, miss paper.

Speaker 11 (37:13):
It's not just that.

Speaker 2 (37:14):
Even if it's in the evening, you see a magpie,
good morning, miss make pie, you salute them. But if
you see too, if you see too, it's bad luck.
You meant to throw some sot over your left shoulder.
Bring you always carry a little bit of salt around
with you in case you see too.

Speaker 5 (37:28):
That's that sort of the magpie whisperer.

Speaker 1 (37:30):
I am, yeah, eight years.

Speaker 2 (37:31):
I've never been attack.

Speaker 1 (37:33):
Has anyone on this show been attacked by Magpie.

Speaker 10 (37:36):
At least three times, really at least at least at
least in a push bike and another time on a
quad bike. Cord by Yeah quick, so fast, And every
time I turned around her to fly back up because
if you make eye contact with it, it flies up again.

Speaker 2 (37:52):
No it does.

Speaker 1 (37:56):
I'll tell you what.

Speaker 2 (37:57):
Then when we come back at Easter, we're going to
go for a walk together team and we see who
we're going to Let's find Australia's most attacked Magpie area.

Speaker 5 (38:04):
Swoop in spring needs to be later in the last get.

Speaker 2 (38:07):

Are Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

Speaker 2 (46:18):
Your stories of coincidence and chance? Right now?

Speaker 1 (46:21):
What are the odds?

Speaker 2 (46:22):
Thirteen fifty five twenty two, Sue, Good morning, Welcome to
the show. Sue, Yes, good morning, Thank you. Now, Sue,
what is your story first this morning?

Speaker 12 (46:33):
Well, my story is many many years ago, when my
children were small or young, we went on a family
holiday to Coffs Harbor and as children do, they were
playing in the swimming pool and befriended some other kids
and you know, they had a lovely time for an
hour or two, and you know, we all all parted
ways at the end of the Playton. Anyway, about two
years later, we're on another family holiday and we're at

(46:55):
Cannes Airport, so nowhere near Coffs Harbor or Sydney, where
both families lived, and we're standing at the bag of
carousel and we look over and what other chances it's
the exact same family.

Speaker 11 (47:07):
You're kid.

Speaker 12 (47:09):
Anyway, so we sort of go over reintroduce ourselves. Everyone
has a laugh about oh yes, we remember. You know,
how funny that here we are now, you know, all
this time on anyway, we sort of part ways again.
We all make our way to our shuttle and we
were staying in the exact same result in Palm Cove
from camp What.

Speaker 1 (47:27):
Wow, that is incredible. Your two families that linked together.

Speaker 12 (47:32):
You meant to be Yeah, well maybe maybe we did.
We did stay in touch for a little while post that,
but then obviously life got busy with you know, I
think five kids between us, so yeah, we just sort
of but yeah, it was it was just yeah, and
you know, the second holiday in Palm Cove it turned
out to be really fabulous because all the kids had
entertainment for the whole.

Speaker 1 (47:49):
Week and they got they reunited with their.

Speaker 12 (47:52):
Old mates exactly exactly.

Speaker 1 (47:55):
So this is a great story.

Speaker 2 (47:56):
So to give me an idea, we should try and
find out who has remained in touch with holiday friends.
Don't they're going to be in each other's nice for
a long time. It fades like your suntann, doesn't it.
It fades real quick, doesn't it.

Speaker 8 (48:15):
I actually stayed in touch with the guy who made
my booking for a dolphin tour.

Speaker 7 (48:20):
It was really hard to actually get the tour, and.

Speaker 8 (48:23):
He snuck me into one of the tours and then
I said, oh, thank you so much.

Speaker 7 (48:26):
And we had a really good rapport.

Speaker 8 (48:28):
He added me on Instagram and we talked to each
other for about six months afterwards.

Speaker 2 (48:32):
Just to see that six months is a long one.
So thank you very much for your great story. Thanks
on the show, and I have a love Easter YouTube.

Speaker 12 (48:40):
Bye bye, thank you.

Speaker 1 (48:41):
Hey, Michael, good morning, welcome to the showmate.

Speaker 9 (48:44):
Hello, how are you?

Speaker 1 (48:45):
I'm good Michael?

Speaker 2 (48:46):
All right, So Michael, what's your story of coincidence and chance.

Speaker 14 (48:50):
Well, I'm a retired detective from New South Wales and
many years ago or arrested a fellow in relation to
a fraud matter, not a really complex matter, but Crook's
being stupid as they are. He volunteered to go into
a lineup where the victim gets to pick him out.

Speaker 2 (49:07):
He volunteer.

Speaker 1 (49:10):
He volunteered to go into the lineup.

Speaker 14 (49:12):
We've got a volunteer to go into a lineup to
get picked out. So what we're used to, what we
usually do is we usually go out to a different
suburb and we use like for all the shopping centers
of that and we are to volunteers to stand in
as the other As the other parties, we usually have
to bribe them with McDonald's happy meals or something other
because so many people actually want to waste half an

(49:33):
hour an hour standing in a lineup. So we travel
about twenty kilometers away to a shopping center out further
out western Sydney, and we gather up about takes us
couple of hours. We gather up about six or seven
different fellows to come in for this lineup. So we
bring them all in and the victim comes in and
straight away she picks number one and then she goes,
I think he's number six or seven in case. Yeah,

(49:55):
he was him too.

Speaker 2 (49:55):
He was the other guy that was with him, the
co offender.

Speaker 14 (49:58):
The co offender, he said look.

Speaker 1 (49:59):
What he'd also volunteered. You've got Geniuses of the year.

Speaker 14 (50:03):
Yeah, so so we end up talking to this plague.
It ends up he's friends with the guy. What are
the odds it's the media going to a lineup he committed.

Speaker 2 (50:16):
That's a costly happy meal.

Speaker 3 (50:18):
Wow.

Speaker 14 (50:20):
We lock him up as well, and yeah.
