Hey, this is the Christian O'Connell show podcast Now.
Speaker 2 (00:27):
Yesterday Rio went to someone for the first time that
in the UK, this was the highlight of my childhood.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
We call them car boot sales. And it's a farmer's field.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
Right, and it's car boots opened up and anyone can
rock up. You pay like five bucks to get onto
this farmer's field and there'd be hundreds of people doing this, okay,
selling tap basically from the car boot.
Speaker 3 (00:51):
I've never seen anything like that in my entire life.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Honestly, when your dad or Mumo go listen Tom, We're
going to go to carbooks.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Because suddenly as a kid you're like two dollars pocket money,
you felt like a millionaire.
Speaker 4 (01:04):
It goes fast.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
I remember once when I was ten, coming away with
a load of windscreen wipers for car I couldn't obviously have,
but we didn't even need because they were just one.
But that's a great guy was selling windscreen wipers.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
Incredible. I mention for years by the millennium Vulga.
Speaker 2 (01:23):
There's some random windscreen wipers that I got a car
boot sale.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
We had it. Well, I guess I had a similar
experience because we were.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
So what would you call it here?
Speaker 4 (01:31):
Well, I don't know, pats boot sale.
Speaker 1 (01:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (01:34):
Yeah, there was a big well out of Nearcastlemaine, and
that was we're just driving along, We're going to a cafe,
and then we see this sign that just says boot market,
and then all.
Speaker 4 (01:42):
These cars, like you said, in this field, I.
Speaker 1 (01:44):
Was, we're gone. It's a scene.
Speaker 3 (01:48):
And there was this crusty old man in an Orange
Commodore and he had like maybe hundreds and hundreds of
vinyls just in his car book.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Yeah, it's literally the shop is somebody's car. Boot is
all they were. And as you're wandering around, it's lots
of random tax of all sorts.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Yeah, they're not exactly like a farmer market where it
isn't all good.
Speaker 4 (02:10):
It looks like just stuff they had.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
No one pays whatever they're asking for. You see everywhere
you go people like negotiating, and yet we don't do
this in big brand shops. You just pay it for
some reason because you're in a field and it's just
and they're sat in their cars. You think it's okay,
and it's it's like it's like bucks, it's sense yeh,
(02:34):
I'm only going to pay one butt for that and
like one dollar fifty, Yeah, because how do you value
so like you go?
Speaker 4 (02:39):
Who said you can do?
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Just from his boot?
Speaker 2 (02:42):
And also it's such a random arrade of stuff there, yes,
like car batteries.
Speaker 4 (02:48):
Just old clothes, shoes, shoes.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
Sometimes there's one shoe, old roller boots. It's like an
op shop that's been emptied in the farmer's field exactly.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Oh, I love them. I didn't know they're available here. Oh,
then the stoun is coming up right now.
Speaker 4 (03:01):
I bought it from this this lovely old man.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
I must say, what the crusty he just said, he's crusty.
Speaker 1 (03:08):
Yeah, I bought.
Speaker 4 (03:09):
I couldn't resist. It costs too much money, I must say.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
But it was a hard copy of He said, these
are Cricket vinyls from the fifties.
Speaker 4 (03:16):
Oh wow, And I was like, well, what does what
does that even mean?
Speaker 3 (03:19):
And the title of the album I had like four
or five different vinyls was the Gospel according to Cricket,
And it just had one or two just said like
our Don Bradman. The gospel according to Cricket One was
public discourse on cricket. I was like, I don't know
what this is, but I have to have it.
Speaker 1 (03:39):
Brad, That's what it was. This is lovely, lovely crack
that you get from old final.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
I thought you were saying that Don Bradman had recorded
an albums.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
I'm paying the Don Bradman sings. We know how good
he was singing.
Speaker 4 (04:01):
That's what I was hoping it was. It was Don
Bradman and Jack. I was like, oh my god, I.

I was just a Friday's podcast on the way to
work this morning. You're real we're talking about how much
you loved the seven eleven coffee, and pats was talking
about her egg and lettuce sandwich. Christian, my husband is
a trucky and even eat every day has a seven
eleven coffee swears by. If you're driving like that all
day drive on the roads around here, then you have
(07:02):
to have a good instant coffee. Also tow Patsy seven
eleven does the best egg and let us sandwich.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
By the way, I have to try this thing is
now an.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Hour ago we did a taste test blind taste test
for coffee and I have to say it was the
most poorly run coffee tastest because Kate and the producer
thought it was okay to give Patsy cold coffee. They've
been on the side for forty five minutes. I don't
feel we've done this correctly. I think it needs to
be done again.
