Welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell Show podcast. So Patsy, what is the WizzFist news? They bring about the scary monsters. So the original characters, Wizz Fizz is celebrating at 75th birthday and they're bringing back the original packaging. But I don't know if you guys have had WISFiz. Do you know what? It's strange to talk about it, right? Someone for my birthday, right, an Australian, I opened up my car. There were two packets.

Yeah.

Were two packets of whizzed. It's strange to talk about it, right? Someone for my birthday, right, an Australian, I opened up my card.

You're a 50th birthday. Yeah. We're two packets of WISF. So I had it for my 50th for the first time ever. Yeah. Very good show of it. I know. I bought back. Very whiz and fizzy. Whizfiz. We used to get it in show bags as kids. Yeah. And my brothers and I, so there was three of us.

And because there's not a lot, you could never get enough of the stuff.

So we'd get mum's big mixing bowl and tip all the packets out, open them out. And then you get those tiny little plastic spoons. And we'd like have a big pile of it. So was this the big thing in the Melbourne show bags? It was mainly about the distribution and getting whizfish. Well, we used to get it just from the local milk part you can still get it yeah you can just get it at the supermarket in packets yeah so it's a it's a couple that used to make this is it Arthur and Marjorie that used to make it I don't know who made it yeah I was looking at only because I was reading the back of this thing because they were like saying it was out of rich and steep history here in Melbourne. And it said in the back, 11.7 million packets are made a year, a WISFIS. What is, what is? What is it? Is it just sugar? You know what it is? Heavenly goodness. It is. We know, you need to wonder what's in that. Don't look too deeply. I don't think I want to know what I was ingesting over my 50th

Bits had get stuck in the end of the don't look too deeply. I don't think I want to know what I was ingesting. But, you know, bits

get stuck in the end of the, of the spoon and you'd like get your tongue and like it, every little

morsel of the stuff that was so good. All right. So we've opened up another big book of listeners,

and it's not about whizfiz. The lines are open on 941414-13.

941-1043.

Kevin, good morning.

Good morning, guys. How are you?

We're good. So, expensive mistake, Kev.

Back in the mid-80s, I was working at Coles at Denong, and I was the storming there, and I was told clearly that the freestanding dock had a weight limit. Well, me being a smart 17-year-old at the time, put two pellets of beer on the dock, and the dock collapsed and broke every single bottle of beer. Oh, no. it's about, I know, 12, 1, 1,400 bottles of beer. That's a lot. When you're just starting out in your working life, you're just 17. It will take you many years of work to pay back those beers. He's still doing it now to the stage. I've kept my job there, but, yeah, I've gotten a bit of trouble. Yeah, I bet. All right, Kev, thank you very much you call me. Have a good day. Bye. Rob, good morning. Good morning. How are you? I'm good, Rob. So, expensive mistake. What's your story for us, mate? Yeah, I was apprentice panel beta, and I was helping the first year apprentice mechanic pull a

Nissan 300 ZX that was imported to Australia apart after an accident and at the end of pulling

it apart he had to put all the parts away and he kept all the damaged parts and threw all the

undamaged parts away and it ended up costing work about 60 grand by all the damaged parts and threw all the undamaged parts away and it ended up costing work

about 60 grand and buy all the parts again i mean you don't have to go to school to learn
