Christian.

Welcome friends to the Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

All right, the Caxon has gone off.

Who's going, Christian, open at 6'am this morning for the next two weeks.

Anytime you hear the Claxen go and during the answer or during the song, it means someone

is calling us on Summer of the World for Who's Calling Christian?

Let's find out who is number one.

Good morning. Who's calling Christian?

Good morning, Christian. It's Tom Glasner here.

Tom, good morning. Welcome to the show.

Oh, lovely to be on. Nice to talk to you.

What are you doing up so early? I'm sorry? What are you doing up so early, Tom?

I'm a nearly riser. Um, largely due to a golden retriever that appears the moment there's the

faintest hint of dawn at the side of the bed going, yep, let's get up. So I really have no choice

in the matter. Can you not get the dog some eye blinds? You know those ones that humans wear? It's like an

eye mask? Look, it's very, very difficult to do anything when someone wants you get out of bed.

You've just got to go with it. I'm delighted to be the bonuses. I'm up chatting to you.

And who's asked you to give us a call, Tom? The Learning for Life Autism Center, which is a charity

that I'm patron of. Based here in Melbourne, we provide services to kids and families on the

autism spectrum. Awesome. And how long have you been involved with them, Tom?

Well, we're over.

I think we're coming up to our 18th birthday, Christian.
