the different things on foxtail they drink streaming apps now,
looking for TV shows or movies. We just tell you

Speaker 3 (03:01):
Oh, I've seen all the big adverts for this.
Speaker 4 (03:03):
She's so cool. So it's based it's a true life
story in Britain of a woman in the eighties who
turned into become this notorious jewelry thief.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
Yes, and it is so.
Speaker 4 (03:14):
Well made, you know what. The minute I turned it on,
I loved it because it's just the soundtrack is incredible,
just all these eighties songs. It's brilliant. It is so good.
Speaker 5 (03:24):
It's called Joan and she's what is she acting alone thief?
Speaker 4 (03:28):
Well, she's in this really nasty relationship and her husband
goes away. She's a single mom and it's part sort
of you know, desperation of being able to be a
single mum and provide for a daughter and you know,
get away from a home.
Speaker 3 (03:44):
Incredible story.
Speaker 4 (03:45):
It's great. Sophie Turner is played by her. She was
in Game of Thrones. Oh, I know, married to one
of the Jonas brothers.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
Yes, Barry Jonas Barry.
Speaker 4 (03:58):
That it's beautiful ash and it's just iconic eighties So
I'm really loving that at the moment. The other thing
is school holidays still if you haven't been to any
of Melbourne Zoo's lately. Remember there's three. There's Hillsville Sanctuary,
there's of course the Royal Melbourne Zoo in Parkville and
out our way at Werribee Open Range Zoo. They're doing
(04:18):
really exciting things there at the moment.
Speaker 3 (04:21):
Hillsville is great.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
It's a lovely trip to go out there as well,
and the weather's going to be nice this weekend as well.
Speaker 3 (04:26):
What's the Weerraby one.
Speaker 4 (04:27):
Where every one is and it's We were speaking on
the show yesterday about how big it was five times
the Big Quiz. We found out it's getting bigger. They're
moving all of the African elephants before Christmas. That's right
from the park Field site.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
We were asked to come up with an idea about
that to celebrate. Well, I don't know what happens like
he didn't like the idea.
Speaker 4 (04:52):
So they're not there yet, but they're there early next year.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
So it takes him a long time to walk out
to where you get fifty nfs over the West Gate.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
It's a nightmare, real animal spents.
Speaker 4 (05:04):
And millions out there, and they're eventually going to have
a gondola ride across the Lion in closing. Yeah, it's
going to be amazing.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
What do you mean.
Speaker 4 (05:13):
Amazing like gondolas like half his seat?
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Yeah, I thought you on a lake like that. I'm
pretty sure those big cats can swim close within an hour.
Speaker 3 (05:27):
But she was nervously with like a big poleh in
doggy paddle the.
Speaker 4 (05:35):
Lines they are gone.
Speaker 3 (05:39):
You might get in venice or something, you know, but
do go.
Speaker 4 (05:42):
You can spend the whole day out there. It's brilliant.
Speaker 5 (05:45):
The cable carr is still scary to be going across
the linings a swing. You can't help it going one
of those things and thinks what happens?
Speaker 2 (05:53):
Sometimes they just have a mechanical and you don't want
to be that one who's in the middle.
Speaker 3 (05:57):
And the lions like, here we go.
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Come on for I doubt this is the best day ever.
Speaker 4 (06:02):
When we went to Queenstown, we went, they're really done.
That gondola up queen it is.
Speaker 3 (06:08):
It is beautiful, but it is a bit scary, isn't it.
Speaker 4 (06:10):
Close my eyes the whole way I didn't see a thing.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
I started to get nervous when we were there two
yars ago. Then Ruby started rocking the thing. We're you're
trying to have a laugh. That is, let me film it,
and they still got the video. I'm having a complete
sense of even like trying to hang on to.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
The stop it.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
All right.
Speaker 2 (06:31):
Then we come back after this and we'll get into
Jack and Ice Double thumbs Up.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
We're doing Double thumbs Up where every Friday we talk
about the things that we're enjoying at the moment. If
you've got a show that you're really into that you
recommend text us four seven five three one O four three.
Jackie boy, what are you into at the moment?
Speaker 5 (06:49):
I've brought in some show and tell today. One of
our lovely listeners, Karen wrote to the show and said, Hey,
if Gordy wants a crocheted animal, I'll be happy to
make him one. Her instagram is fantastic Karen j Crochet.
She makes any animal that you want, she'll make. She'll
knit it into a crochet soft toy and have a
look at this. So I said, Gordy loves whales at
(07:10):
the moment, and.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
She made these that is absolutely beauty, the size of
the cottage.
Speaker 5 (07:16):
It's so good and he loves it.
Speaker 2 (07:20):
So I want a crochet animal now. Cooka, but I'd
have a cook I'm actually wearing Kooko burrough socks right now.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
I love.
Speaker 4 (07:27):
Yeah, they are quite impressive.
Speaker 5 (07:29):
I haven't seen a Kooko bar on her Instagram, but
her instagram suggests she could do any animal animal is
too detailed or too differ Again at Karen J. Crochet,
what a great idea for any kids presence you got
coming out in the near future. And then a documentary
that Bank and I watched last night on Netflix was
called Will and Harper. It's about Will Ferrell and his
(07:50):
friend of twenty seven years is transitioning from a man
into a woman, and they go on this lovely road
trip across the US.
Speaker 3 (07:57):
I love if it were about half an hour into it, Yeah,
just started it.
Speaker 5 (07:59):
They go on the road trip to sort to have
a conversation and sort out what this means for their
friendship now they've known each other for twenty odd years
as two guys, and it's actually really moving. It's really beautiful.
Speaker 3 (08:11):
Yeah, things I'm enjoying at the moment.
Speaker 2 (08:13):
You mentioned a couple of weeks ago, Patsy and I
wasn't sure about it, but it's really good. The perfect couple. Yes, oh,
my god, it's very good. Nicole Kidman and Leif Schreiber
very very very watchable.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
Stupid dance. Like the opening credit, they do this ridiculous
stay but Nicole's.
Speaker 3 (08:28):
Doing all of them, all them.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
Yeah, it's really really watchable. The other thing that I
really enjoyed is a movie that came out last week.
George Clooney and Brad Pitt together in a movie, first
one together since Ocean's Eleven, which is lot older now
than you think. They're still so good together. They need
to do more movies together. It's called Wolves. Very very good.
Really really enjoyed that. That is on Apple TV and
on Foxtowl. If you're a big fan of Sopranos, probably
(08:53):
I would say my favorite TV show ever is The Sopranos.
There was a great two part documentary with David Chase,
who came up with the show Fascinate and its interviews
with all the cast as well, even the late great
James Gannandlphini as well, and it shows you their audition
tapes that they did for the various characters as well.
It's brilliant. Can't recommend enough. That's on Fox TEW. You'll
find it's called Wise
