Christian.

Welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

All right, today on the show then, we want to hear your stories about crazy uncles.

This came off the back of yesterday.

I got this text message from Tamika.

When we were asking you, who are you named after?

Christian, my uncle was in charge of naming my brother.

I mean, I don't know about you guys, I've never heard of this.

No. No. You know, sometimes it might be a book or a movie that influences kids' names and stuff

like that. But actually just pomming it off to, out of any family member, your, your mum or

doubt I could maybe understand. But the uncle in the family tree is the home of the crazies.

My uncle was in charge of naming my brother, not knowing what to call him,

and he put a bet on the horses and said the next jockey to win, we'll name him after them.

The jockey was a girl, so that didn't work, so he changed it to the cricket and the next

batter to play. That was Brett Lee's first test match, and my brother is named Brett Lee.

Incredible scenes. So I want to know today about crazy uncles.

Jack, you got crazy uncle?

My uncle was a police officer.

And when I was 12 years old, I went on a bust with him.

My job was to sit in the back of his family van with a blanket over my head,

filming on a camcorder.

What?
