Speaker 1 (00:01):
Can we go home for the summer drive home? This
is Zak and bizarre thing happened to me a couple
of days ago.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
I was in an op shop and I was just
looking through the the shirts, see if I could get
myself a good vintage special, and I heard some the
teenage boys sort of giggling over in the book section.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
They were looking at a book and laughing.
Speaker 3 (00:21):
Usually that's because they're looking at Mills and Boone or something,
you know, something a little racy is the case.
Speaker 2 (00:26):
Well, in this instance, it was a copy of the
novel probably many of us read in high school To
Kill a Mockingbird. And they put the novel back, the
copy of the book back, after laughing at it for
a bit. And I went over to see what's going
on here?
Speaker 1 (00:38):
Why is his?
Speaker 2 (00:39):
Harper Lee's classic To Kill a Mockingbird made them laugh
so much?
Speaker 3 (00:42):
Now I see that I have a copy of To
Kill a Mockingbird in front of me. Is this you've
purchased it? I bought it, guess so much, from an
op shop To Kill a Mockingbird. It's not a hard cover, no,
so if you're paying over two dollars, you're getting real.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
Bang on, mate. Two bucks prices right op shop version.
Speaker 3 (00:58):
I know my op shops you do, So why you
bring this up? Are we starting a book club?
Speaker 4 (01:02):
Or well?
Speaker 2 (01:03):
I just I was pretty amazed when I picked the
book up myself and opened the front cover to see
who this book I think once belonged to.
Speaker 3 (01:11):
There's a name in the front cover.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
There is someone who's labeled the book clearly a while ago.
But it's if it's what I think it is, this
has belonged to one of the most famous Australians of
all time. Or go as far as saying, okay, so
open and tell me what you see on the inside cover.
Speaker 3 (01:27):
Okay M Robbie. Yeah, as in Margot Robbie, Hi Barbie.
Speaker 5 (01:35):
Hi Boby, Hi Barbi, Hi Barby, Hi Bobbie, Hi Barby,
Hi Barbie.
Speaker 3 (01:40):
Now yeah, M Robbie could be Matt Robbie. It could
be Michelle Robbie.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
Yes, but you'll notice underneath M.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
Robbie.
Speaker 1 (01:50):
What's what's written there?
Speaker 3 (01:51):
Well, there's a school. I'm not sure we can say
the school. The school name said the school name Somerset
College School on the Gold Coast. Does did Margaret Robbie
go to that school? Looked it up?
Speaker 1 (02:00):
She did indeed.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
Okay, now it's interesting. Now have you looked into Margot
Robbie's siblings.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
I have not, because they could do a thing.
Speaker 3 (02:08):
Sometimes parents do this. Yes, all the same initial That would.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Still be cool though if we had one of Margot Robbie's.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
Siblings as cool. But we have Margot Robbie's sister's book
from high school.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Yeah, well, you you telling me you wouldn't be happy
with any Robbie. I think we're getting are getting a
head shake there. I don't think it did belong. I
don't think she's got any siblings with an M name.
Speaker 3 (02:27):
Have you looked through this at all for any doodles
or anything? Because I'm looking at I'm looking at the
spine and someone's written high on it, you know, like
you would do with your boarding class, and you just
start writing on the book. Is that Margot Robbie's team
writing from high school?
Speaker 2 (02:42):
As a look that could one hundred percent be a
year ten Margot Robbie, I reckon, yep.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
She's like, I don't need to read Kill a mocking Bed.
I'm going to be in Barbie one day.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
So one day, somewhere along the line, Margot Robbie, I
believe had this book as a high school copy.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
See if I can see any imagine if we found
like a note here. Yes, you know maybe because in
class you could write a note, past it to a friend,
pass it back, and you'd be like, oh, we're just
we're just reading different chapters.
Speaker 2 (03:08):
Miss yeah, stand three idiot. She strikes me as a
good student, Margo. I don't think she would have been
too disobedient. I want to know in thirteen one oh
sixty five, though, do you own something that a famous
person once had? Do you own something that belonged to
a famous person.
Speaker 3 (03:22):
Because I'm wondering. You mentioned that it costs two dollars? Yes,
does this increase the price if it's Margo Robbie's the
value pee of particular mockingbird.
Speaker 2 (03:30):
If it's got high in her handwriting down the bottom
on the sort of written on the spine, then it
probably does. But I'm thinking this must happen sometimes. Maybe
you went to a gig and like the musician threw
their shirt out to the audience afterwards.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
Or the common one is the drumsticks.
Speaker 1 (03:43):
Yes, that'd be a big one.
Speaker 2 (03:45):
Maybe you bought memorabilia that once belonged to a famous person.
But I've never had anything like this before. Suddenly I
own a book that we are ninety percent sure belonged
to maybe the most famous Australian Margo Robbie.
Speaker 3 (03:56):
Or this one has a name in it. Yeah. Often
I think people tell you that it used to belong
to someone that's your look like cars. Yes, they're like, oh,
this used to be Scott Cam's high locks. It's hard
to prove.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
Probably he's owned a number of highlights at Scott Cams,
so there's truth in that. They'd in one oh six five.
Do you own something that once belonged to a famous person.
We'll see if anyone else has a story like my
copy of Marco Robbie Stickular Mockingbird, Tracy, what is it?
Speaker 6 (04:26):
Drumsticks from Tiko Turis from Bon Jovi?
Speaker 3 (04:36):
Tracy. I've always wondered with this. Did you catch them?
Did it hit someone in the head and you got
the rebound? How did you get your hands on them?
Speaker 6 (04:43):
My dad used to work at the entertainment centersor I
just seen heaps for content, so a couple of I
was at the concept but one of the workers actually
caught them and gave them to me.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
Oh that's nice.
Speaker 2 (04:53):
I guess if you if you do work there all
the time, you probably you've got drumsticks coming out here.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
How many eye injuries I've had and because of throwing
drum sticks, I wonder so good point, So just huck
him into the crowd.
Speaker 1 (05:04):
I often used to.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Think that with like crowdsurfing, there would have been a
few like fractured you know, arms and things like that
from a CrowdSurf gone wrong. Have to have been Christy
on thirteen one oh six five. This is your grandson
owns a famous boot. Tell us why the boot is famous?
Speaker 5 (05:20):
He actually got there given Luke Holme's boots that he
did the shoe.
Speaker 1 (05:25):
Wow ring in your car.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
Okay, that's pretty cool. So how did he get how
did he get this boot?
Speaker 1 (05:30):
Tell us the story.
Speaker 5 (05:32):
My daughter for about three weeks leading up Salute's concert,
were trying and trying and trying to get tickets. Yeah,
to the point where I was actually sitting at like
ten o'clock one night, managed to get the mosh pit
con of tickets.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
Sure, right at the front, right at the.
Speaker 5 (05:50):
Front, front row. Because he was eight, everyone pushed him
to the front, right on the Fance nice, Luke did
the shoey, Taylor waved to him and Luke went to
the security to have the boot hang.
Speaker 3 (06:01):
On your kids eight as in eight years old.
Speaker 5 (06:04):
My grandson is eight years of.
Speaker 3 (06:05):
Age, Okay. I was imagining someone a little older getting
should we do?
Speaker 2 (06:11):
That's exactly the sort of person a celebrity would hand
the famous item too.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
Yeah, but once you've just drunk a beer out, which
is a good point.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
Was there any beer left in it, Christy or did
Luke finish the beer?
Speaker 6 (06:20):
No?
Speaker 5 (06:21):
They kind of tipped it out and make sure that
there was no beer.
Speaker 2 (06:25):
And it is important if you are going to hand
a shoe that once contained alcohol too a lighter, make
sure you have drained all the alcohol out of the
shoe first.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Smart stuff.
Speaker 3 (06:34):
Lisha on thirteen one oh six five. Whoa, this doesn't
get much bigger?
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Is this true?
Speaker 3 (06:39):
What idea do you have?
Speaker 5 (06:41):
Hi?
Speaker 4 (06:41):
How are you guys? Well?
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Alicia tell us.
Speaker 4 (06:44):
It's actually pretty awesome. So it was quite a few
years ago. Matt Demon was in Sydney for New Years Yeah,
and he was at Cargo Bar at the time, and
I was just chatting to him briefly, and I didn't
have anything for him to sign, and I was like
a pen or anything, and I was like, well, how
about you give me your hat? And he gave me
(07:06):
his Facebook cap.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
Wow. Okay, that's very cool.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
That almost even seems a little bit flirty. Alicia, did
you get that?
Speaker 4 (07:15):
But I was pretty excited, and I've worn the hat
once and then I've just like got it sitting in
my room. I don't want to ruin it.
Speaker 3 (07:22):
No, you want to make sure that if there's any
Matt Damon sweating there, it's preserved.
Speaker 2 (07:26):
And I feel like every time I see Matt Damon
out and about, he's in a baseball cat So maybe
he does this often.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
What was the baseball cap, because doesn't he's pretty proudly
from Boston, isn't he.
Speaker 4 (07:34):
Yeah, it wasn't a basketball one. It is. I think
it's baseball. I don't really follow any American things, but
I was excited to get the hat.
Speaker 3 (07:46):
There we go with cloning. Could we clone him from
that because there's a hair in there.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Yeah, it's a good question.
Speaker 3 (07:53):
I'm sure we got hold onto that.
Speaker 4 (07:54):
Yeah, hold on, he's got hair in there. We could
probably get him in for a crime.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
Okay, jeez, Alisia Aliia, we're thinking in a post apocalyptic world, Yeah,
we might need actors.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Yeah, you're thinking you're going to frame Informia. I don't know.
Speaker 2 (08:10):
Where Alisha's mind went there, but anyway, for the creative
criminal thinking, Alicia, you can have a two hundred dollars
into Flora gift voucher. Thanks to into Flora Australia, get
yourself some flowers for Christmas. There on the condition you
promise not to frame Matt Damon for any crimes.
Speaker 4 (08:24):
I promise I would do you drive like the Wind
second down for the drive home
Can we go home for the summer drive home? This
is Zak and bizarre thing happened to me a couple
