Speaker 2 (00:19):
Hey, This is.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
The Christian O'Connell show podcast. Hey, come morning, This is
the Christian O'Connell's show on God. We need your help
to save Australian pubs. The bad news. First of all,
in the last twenty years there's been a drop, a
decline in sixty percent, sixty percent of the number of
(00:42):
pubs here in Australia. And the reason is we're not
getting around each other in front of each other as
much as we used to. We're not going to the
local pubs as much as we used to. We all
know why we're built now. We build a life of convenience,
staying at home. We're drinking indoors, we're not going to
the pub getting around our friends in a pub. When
you think about it, isn't just that building on the corner.
(01:04):
It's the front room of a community. It's the place
where I had my first date with my wife. You know.
It's where you go and celebrate good news. It's where
you get around your mates when they've had bad news.
It's where you go for no good reason and have
one of those lost evenings or afternoons when you think
about some of your favorite mate your times with your mates.
(01:25):
I bet there are pubs involved, and I think it's
really heartbreaking that actually they're falling by the wayside. These
are places of community, of getting together and that is
in decline, which is why we need your help to
do something about that. We're launching something called Save our Pub.
We want you to tell us about your local pub.
You might not even been into it in a while,
(01:47):
it's forgotten about what it's like in there. Let us
know about your local pub because a couple of months
ago we were talking about this and four X heard
about it and they've now joined our campaign Save our Pub,
which means, with their backing, is that five pubs are
going to get five thousand dollars each, and one of
those pubs that you tell us about your local pub
(02:07):
gets the old makeover. So we really are serious about
doing something about it. And I think the really good
news is I think even just mind talking about your
local pub, there are a lot of people listening right now.
Maybe it might change your behavior this weekend or Friday
or Saturday night. Or Sunday afternoon. Go into your local pub,
even if you haven't been there for a while, doesn't matter.
Go back in then, just reminded what it's like to
(02:28):
actually get around each other and share a beer. So
tell us about your local pub. You might even be
thinking of a local pub right now near you, or
even one that used to live near that could do
with a liquor paint or a new dark board. Five
thousand dollars so these five pubs is a lot of
money right now. Give me a call thirteen fifty five
twenty two. We need your help to save our pub.
Speaker 2 (02:53):

Bleep! with Ana Navarro
Fear thrives in silence and confusion. Ana Navarro rejects both. Her voice is an antidote to today’s chaos. Her new podcast, Bleep! with Ana Navarro, takes on today’s most pressing issues with the voices most connected to it: decision-makers, political leaders, cultural shapers, and people on the frontlines of the story. The conversations acknowledge the emotions we all feel—despair, sadness, fear— but emerge with knowledge, perspective, and hope. The belief is simple: fearless dialogue can transform fear into courage, and courage into change. When fear dominates the headlines, this show digs deeper. Because information, debate, and conversation don’t just ease fear, they give us power to shape the future.
