Overnights with Phil O'Neil - Thursday 19th June

and I went, well that's it. I can't go anywhere because it had got there right on my leg and it had fallen asleep. So I lay there for half an hour. It's incredible the power that your pets have over you, isn't it. Joel was talking to a made of mine who's about nearly seven foot tall, and I said, it must be really great to be that tall, and he said, no, it's not. And I said, well, you know why, because I'm only about five ft six maybe

and a half. And I said I would love to be tall, you know'd be fantom I mean, I'd love to do lots of things like have hae, but that's another conversation. I said, it must be really great to be really tall and he said no, In fact, I would rather be short. And I said why and he said, because it's really hard to get clothes that fit. And then I said, well, you try being a short person. You know, you never find a pair of jeans at fit.

But he said the same thing, that the sizes are actually more tailored towards somebody who's shorter than somebody who's taller. And I never thought of that. So therefore, if it's really hard to buy jeans, you know, you can get them taken up if you're short. And I said, okay, we'll give you some more examples. And he said that my bones ache a lot, and that taller people's bones ache a lot more than shorter people. I don't know if that's true or not, but I'm going to go

with it. And I said, okay, give it's wae examples and he said, whenever I go anywhere, especially if I go to a concert and I'm seeing a band or anything like that, I feel really self conscious all the time, and I always feel like I'm in people's way, so I'm always stooping as well, and that a lot of people who are really tall find it really difficult to be really tall because they're really stoop you know, they

stoop all the time. And I'd never thought of that, So I thought i'd open on that that tonight on the phone one three one eight seven three, or on the text zero four six zero eight seven three eight seven three on the phone overnights at two GB dot com. Are you a really tall person and you find that

you wished you were a shorter person? Because I when he gave run through all of these things, all of these issues that tall people have, I started thinking, you know, I can't really think of anything that's bad about being short, you know. I mean, I guess, you know, average height shot, you know, I'm talking, you know, five to five for a man that's pretty short. I mean, you know, there are things, are disadvantages because you do have a tendency, whether you like to admit it or not, to suffer

from small man syndrome. But in terms of being a short person, I really can't see any disadvantages disadvantages to it as compared to being really tall anyway, what do you think. I'll be interested to ask about that, and I'd like be interested to hear your opinion as well. One three, one eight seven three. Now, what's going on in the world, Well, I guess you know, well, probably nothing. If you look at how nonchalant Donald Trump was a

moment ago. I was watching him and he's still on Telly on the White House front lawn, and I thought, Okay, here we go. Something's happening. And this is currently being broadcast on all the channels. I've got all the channels on because obviously I want to keep you updated in case anything happens overnight. So I've got CNN on. I've also got Fox News, and I've got Sky News UK.

They're pretty much my go tos. And he's on all of these channels, standing there on the front lawn of the White House, not wearing a tie, looking very very relaxed, covered by guys in high vis And the reason he's there and the high viz guys are there is because

they're installing new flag poles at the White House. And he honestly said this, he said, these are the best flag poles that we've got anywhere in the world, in true Donald Trump style, and he went on talking about how nicely tapered the flag poles were, and I was thinking, is there anything else that you might want to mention about things that are going on in the world, and any talked about the flag poles for a good twenty minutes without Now he's taking question from reporters and the

questions are, well, what's going on with Israel and Iran? Give us an update on that. But he seems incredibly relaxed about the whole thing. He's answering questions amid tensions with Iran at the moment, and it's almost it's so much like Colm the Fruit, right, you know, a couple of days, a couple of days, that's how relaxed he

is about it. And I heard John Stanley saying when he was talking to laurent to Marzi from Channel My News a moment ago that if you go and do not even a deep dive, but just a shallow dive into all of the news coming out about this particular conflict at the moment with Israel and Iran, it's non stop there. It's just stuff coming through all the time. I know a lot of people go to X and things like that for their source of news. And I only just started dipping my toe into the whole X thing.

It's been on my phone apparently I've got an account. I've never tweeted, but I went on there and had a look just to get the zeitgeist, if you will, and there's a lot going on in the world that doesn't seem to be accurate. I think if you need a terrain for fake news and for ai, you know, orchestrated news, you can get that on X because if you believe everything on that X, the world's already ended.

So if people are using that just as their source of news, then I would perhaps suggest you go and find another news outlet, even if you're not a fan of or Sky News, I'd say that you've probably got more chance of getting some kind of accurate picture of what's going on in the world than if you're going on too X. But anyway, so I've had to look through some of the things that are going on, and

there's so much stuff at the moment too. The Iran Supreme Leader has declared the battle has begun, in his first public statement since US President Donald Trump said the US would spare him from assassination for now in a thrilling I big you, but no chilling threat. The Iranian State TV also warned of a major surprise tonight, one that they claim the world will remember for centuries. It's a pretty big calls a pretty big threat. It's a pretty chilling threat if you look at it that way.

But he's on this is the Iranian Supreme Leader. He's on X posting what's going to be happening. He said that the nation would show no mercy. This is after Donald Trump threatened mister Ali Cadamini about the easy target post on truth socially said mister KAMENI is an easy target. We know where you are and we'll find you. Further to that, the US Embassy in Jerusalem's closing for three days.

Israel and Iran continuing to trade strikes on the sixth day of the conflict, so they said on their website that the embassy would close between Wednesday and Friday due to the current security situation and the ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran. So the consualist services in Tel Aviv also closed until Friday. The US Embassy has directed that all US government employees and their family members continue to shelter in place in and around their residences until further notice.

There's just a couple of stories that I had to look at, but there's so many more. Russia's demanded that Israel stop its illegal attacks on Iranian nuclear facilities, warning it's pushing the world towards a nuclear catastrophe. Donald Trump was talking about this a moment ago when one of the reporters said, have you spoken to Putin? And Trump said, yeah, Putin's offered to negotiate, and then he laughed it off. He said, well, you know, fix your own problems first.

Don't come to me with trying to negotiate on this. You've got other things to negotia out on. But weighing in on this conflict, the Russian Foreign Ministry called on Israel to immediately cease the raids on the nuclear installations and sites that are undergoing safeguards and accused Western countries of manipulating the truth. So that's another story, and he's another one. Donald Trump appears to offer confirmation the United

States is now participating in Israel's attack in Iran. On another social media post, he said, we now have complete and total control of the skies over Iran. Iran had good sky trackers and other defensive equipment, plenty of it doesn't compare to the American made, conceived, and manufactured stuff. Nobody does it better than good old USA, he said in his post. So it seems to me that you know, they've already got some skin in the game. Now it's hard to know what actually is true and what isn't.

In the meantime, here's another story that caught my attention that I've I'll have to share this with you. Over thirty US military aerial refueling tankers have been dispatched to the Middle East in the past few days, and so where Donald Trump gives orders for the US to become involved in the Israel Iran conflict, the tankers could be used to support the Israeli fighter jet missions against Iran and also helped to support the US Air Force be

two bombers should they be deployed into action. A lot of talk about the It's amazing how quickly you can have a lot of information if you suddenly find yourself going down a deep dive on this stuff, and I found out about the bunker busters. It seems that America have more and better bunker busters than Israel do. But I'm also led to believe that the nuclear facility in Iran that they're trying to get to is buried under so much concrete in a mountain that you've got to

have something really special to go down there. So that's really where we're at at the moment. Nothing, there's nothing to report, which is good news. But are we on the edge of something that may be a big catastrophe? What do you think about that too? Phones are open one three one eight seven three zero four six zero eight seven three eight seven three. Emails are overnights at two GB dot com. And let's talk about two whether or not it's better to be a short person or

a taller person. What are the advantages and disadvantages of that? Could be right? I'd like to hear from him morning. It's cold, not as cold as it had been feeling the last few days, but it does feel a little chilly out there. Currently thirteen degrees in Brisbane, but it feels like eleven degrees in Sydney eight degrees at the moment, but it feels like seven coming up to twenty one

minutes past midnight. And the phone number is one three one eight seven three, text zero four six zero eight seven three eight seven three on the emails overnights at two GB dot com. Couple of things we're talking about. One after this conversation I had with my mate who's really tall, and said, you would actually be surprised how

many tall people don't like being tall. And I said, yes, I you know, I thought the advantages are all yours and the world is yours, and you don't see it's really weird, but you don't see that many world leaders and people like that who are actually shorter. I mean, Zelenski's quite short, but you know, the majority of leaders, even you know when I say world leaders, even local politicians, they're all pretty tall. You know, Zelensky is quite short.

But it's really amazing when you meet somebody and you think they have this stature of being a really tall person. And I met Bono in Amsterdam when I was doing an interview for MTV Awards over there, millions of years ago, and he came into the room and I was really surprised because, like I said, I'm only really short, about five to five and a half at a stretch, and he's the same height as I am, and I couldn't believe it. I sort of thought, Bono, you always appear

to me as though you were six foot five. So that's just the illusion that you've got, you know, when you're on stage, but when you meet people. And I was saying this to John Stanley as well. He was talking about David Copperfield. And I did an interview with David Copperfield. He hid in the corner. I mean literally hid in the corner. And I went in and I said where is he? And they said, he's over there, and he was dressed in black, standing in front of

a black drape in a darkened room. And I said, okay, fair enough, that's his thing. I did an interview with him, and afterwards I said to the publicist why was he in the corner? What was that all about? And she said, because he's quite aware of his height, and he's quite short and quite diminutive. It was probably seventy five eighty k's at best, and he doesn't want people to realize that he is, in fact so small because he wants

to give that illusion as a magician. That you know, of course, if you're a magician, you've got to have a huge ego. Otherwise you wouldn't be able to pull the wool over people's eyes. But he wants to put off this illusion of being huge, so when you see him, you think, yeah, he's a guy can make the Eiffel Tower disappear. But how's he do that when he's only five foot four? So well, I just thought i'd put that out there and give me a ring. Let me know what you think in terms of whether or not

it's better to be tall or short. One three, one eight seven three. A couple of texts coming through to JJ says the ancient Greeks weren't tall, but they ruled their part of the world for some time, and the Romans the same as well. And this one that came in from rowan Or. I think he's generalizing here, but we'll go with it. Field. You know, girls don't like short men. Ask any girl and they'll say she prefers

taller men. Is that true or is that just you know, a bit of a generalization one three one eight seven three. Or on the phone zero four six zero eight seven three eight seven three do you prefer as a woman to go out with a man who's taller? And also if your wife or girlfriend is taller than you. Is that an issue for you too, because you know that Tom Cruise had a big problem with that. And after Nicole Kidman and Tom broke up, she said, great, I

can finally wear high heels again. And even he has the elevated shoes, so he has a real issue with, you know, his height. That's one of the many issues that Tom Cruise has. One of the other ones is that if he's running in a film, nobody else is allowed to run. And he runs in just about every film that he's in. So if you know he's running in a film, nobody else is allowed to run. And there's a lot of other people I think from I'm

just trying to remember. I spoke to a guy once who put out a mirror which had the heights of famous movie stars on it, and I see if I can find the audio and I'll play it to him just a moment, and it was basically, you so, and it's a great idea. So you go, you know, go to the mirror and you have a look and you see how you compare to movie stars. And when the guy told me the heights of movie stars, I was really surprised. I said, you're kidding. I can't believe that

that person, for example, is so short. Give me a sack. I'll see if I can find that audio. And this one came in from Marion. Hello, Marion, how are you? She says, my grandson is six foot six at sixteen, and he wants to put a brick on his head. Is that other side of it too, if you suddenly start growing when you're younger, a lot taller than the other kids. Although, what about Baron Trump, Donald Trump's son.

He's about seven foot ninety or something now, and you know he actually you see this too, that he stoops when he's walking. A lot of people You notice that who are really tall don't like to be tall. Try being short one three one eight seven three. And on the text zero four to six zero eight seven three

eight seven three. When we're talking about the other issue, which is the Israel Iran conflict, as I mentioned a moment ago, Donald Trump on the front lawn of the White House installing new flagpoles in front of a bunch of guys, or wearing the high viz. And I would have thought, well, and his real casual demeanor was surprising. I would have thought, with the world supposedly on the brink of what it is right now, he's gone out

there completely nonchalant, without a care in the world. He really did have that whole I don't have a care in the world. I don't have the world on my shoulders. Like you saw photos of the Kennedys back in the Cuban missile crisis back in what was that sixty sixty four. No, he doesn't look like he has a care in the world, which is really weird when you consider where we're at, and maybe he went out there to try and give

that illusion. But there's been a little bit of interesting audio that's doing the rounds at the moment too, where the conservative media figure Tucker Carlson, who is a big fan of MAGA. You know, he was at MAGA at the start. He used to be on Fox News, he isn't anymore now. He was grilled and also had a grilling with Ted Cruz, who's the Republican US Senator. And it seems that Tucker Carlson was in Donald Trump's camp

big time. You couldn't get too close to people. It looks like he's had a falling out with Donald Trump, and Donald Trump actually said, well, Tucker Carlson. He doesn't even have a TV show. If you had a TV show, he'd have something to talk about. So we was talking about that. But here's the discussion between the two, and it seems as though there are definite divisions and a split with Maga.

establishment with full four. He says that they can't afford to let this drag on. Here is a bit of audio with Donald Trump standing on the front lawn of the White House putting up the flag poles. I mean, I don't know if you can tell by this bit of audigo. I haven't heard it. Chris just put it in the system there just a moment ago. I don't know if you'll be able to hear in this audio how it relaxed Donald Trump sounds. But here he is answering a question about Iran failing to negotiate.

out a mirror, made a mirror his company did. And you can stand in front of the mirror and see how your height compares with the height of movie stars. So you can make yourself feel really good about yourself. And I'll play it. I'll get it for you in just a Saint Chris is just having a look at it in the other studio. But I found it really interesting. But what a great novelty, what a great idea especially, I mean, that's something that people would love when they

come to your house. Right, you stand in front of the mirror and you see how much taller you are than famous movie stars. And it really surprised me when I had a chat with him, which is why I thought about it. I'll try and find that. I'll try and get it on the air. We in just a moment, here's a Texa came through from Peter the Daily Crime broadcast on TV. It's just horrible people on bail, committing more serious crime. Guns, knives, machetes, fraud scams, skimming cards everywhere.

It's a crazy world every day. I thought, imagine if you just dropped out. I thought that the other day, just dropped out and you had absolute ignorance, the absolute bliss of ignorance. You just didn't know what was going on in the world. And you find people who are like that, you know. I oftentimes I'll talk to people and I'll go what about this situation or what about that situation. Then they'll go, what what's going on? And they have no idea? I think, how can you not

know what's going on in the world? How much ignorance can you have? That's a bliss? Did you find it there? Chris? Okay, that's Chris pressing all kinds of buttons in the background there. Hey, Phil, how do you think poor Jack feels in Jack and the Beanstalk. Well, I don't know. People who are six foot tall have a better view of the world than people who are, say, five foot six, says Bruce. Taller people can see more things, especially at the supermarket, Bunnings

or at the football says Bruce. But I mentioned this before, Bruce that my mate, who's really tall, hates going to concerts and things like that, hates going to the movies because he's constantly aware that he's taller than other people. So maybe there's a if you pardon the pun, downside to that. Mick also says ask Dale, he's been in movies? How tall is he? And Paul said Nicole Kidman likes

The Short Men one three one eight seven three. There's the phone number on the text zero four six, zero eight seven three eight seven three, and Tommy said, Phil, you mentioned Tom Cruise in his height. On the TV show Get Smart, Barbara Feldon, who played Agent ninety nine, said that Don Adams, who played Maxwell Smart, had a problem with her eyed, so she often had to go and slouch down and do barefoot stuff in scenes. So

Adams constantly looked taller and stood on platforms too. I'd heard stories of Tom Cruise standing on boxes and standing on things, so he would he really must really hate that whole short thing. He must really get his goat the fact that he's not that tall, because it's you know, he obviously wants to play the tall guy. And I know that this was something if you're a Jack Reacher fan when Jack Reacher films came out, because Tom Cruise brought the rights to it, and everybody said, he can't

play the character. Even my dad, he can't play the character of Tom Reacher. Tom is six foot five, you know, two hundred and fifty pounds, and you've got Tom Cruise. And that was maybe the only point that Tom Cruise, the only reason why Tom Cruise took that movie role was because he decided that he wanted to be seen as bigger in stantsher too. Just a moment. I'm going to talk about Sharks and there's a reason for that. It's an anniversary of Sharks. Also coming up this morning,

and a lot going on on the show. Ask doctor Carl later on. I've got some of the questions that you sent through to me for Doctor Carl Kruzenewski. That's coming up after one and end of Brady's going to be on the phone as well with the latest news. He from the UK is the host of the round Table and he's going to give us his opinions on

everything that's happening in the world. Leath band Onsolon's on going to be on the way to and also in our live lounge a little bit later on this morning, we have an international star who's going to play a song for you. We're going to go international in the live lounge. Marie, how are you this morning? No, Margie, Oh, I'm sorry, Margie.

like the poor cousin or something. So that's noticeable. But I've never really.

in Queensland. He says, Phil, before your time, Alan Ladd opposite Sophia la Wren in A Boy and a Dolphin and was short acted in Shade classic movie and later on a few other ones as well. Appreciate your text cos thank you so much. And also this one that came in from Carrie Phil, I was about to ring you about the footy and then I heard the news, so she got sidetracked before she wanted to talk about the footy with things that are going on, but then she got back to it and says, go the blues.

We can still win this one. Thank you carry for sending three of that text. Paul gave me a saying that had to do with redheads and I think that all of the way, and also had one. All of the redhead jokes pretty much go in the direction that you think they might go. So I spoke to a guy in the UK who had this mirror. I think this is well. I don't know whether or not like the mirror itself or the concept and the idea of the mirror, because I think it's really really clever. And

the mirror was called who Tall are You? So you would go to somebody's house they've got the mirror there and you stand in front of it and you see which well known celebrity or movie star you're taller than. And I thought it was a great idea. He was telling me all about it.

couple of people that I met. Sam Pang I met and he was really short, and I was really surprised by that because he always seemed taller on television. And who was the other one, Oh, Grant Dania. Well here's a surprise for you. I met Grant Dania and I thought that I could out tall him. And I couldn't. And I was really surprised by that because you know how short he is. But there are some people. There's another one who I was thinking of, Andrew Denton, also

equally really really short. You don't expect people to be that short when you meet them in person. Who else was there a whole bunch of people that you know, you run into and you meet, and then you in person you go, wow, that really really surprised me. You know, Tom Cruz quite short, Michael J. Fox, we knew that too. But Kevin Hart. Do you know the actor Kevin Hart, He's really short. He's only about five foot two. And also, you know who else is really short? Dustin Hoffman, who's

again around about my height, just over five foot. Al Pachi is only just over five foot Isn't that incredible? You think al Pacino would be someone who just comes across as being a really really tall person. And here's another one, and this one really surprises me too. And two people in fact. One Mark Wahlberg, who I would always have said Mark Wahlberg would have to be up around you, you know, six foot. No he's not Mark Wahlburg,

just a round about five foot six. And the other one that really surprises me again a round about five foot six and I would never have picked this, and that's Robert Downey Junior. You just think to myself, you know, like I could have been a movie star, could have been a comp always wanted to be a cop. Somebody else at Angus young too, and Robin Williams was only five foot seven inches in height.

of restaurants. And we glanced over at the other table and I swear to god, Billy Cresteal was having dinner with Robin Williams, and I just went, I can't believe it. It's Robin Williams and Billy Crestel and also in this restaurant was Helen Hunt was there with the actor that she was going out with at the time, whose name I can't remember. It was Paul anyway, So I was sort of fixated on this Robin Williams. I mean, it's

Robin Williams, right, forget Billy Crystal. And so Robin Williams went off to the bathroom and I thought, I'm going to go in there, and I'm going to follow him in there because I want to meet him. And so he'd gone into the cubicle. Somebody's in the cubicle and you're standing at a toilet and you don't need to go. You really are in no man's land. I've got, you know,

nowhere to go, nothing to do. So I just stood there washing my hands for what must have been about five minutes, and you know, he was the only other person in there. I'm in there, he's doing his business, I'm washing my hands. Eventually he comes out and I spin around and grab his hand and going, you know, Robin Williams, you're a comedic genius, sir. You know my hands, of course, I've been washing them for about five minutes that were covered in soap and my arms were just saturated.

But you know, I've got ahold of it, and I'm shaking his hand, going, it's great to meet you. It's great to meet you. You know that is my memory of Robin Williams. And then an Angela Bishop. If you're listening, you know you did this on purpose. Afterwards, they all went outside, got in their limousines, and I took her. Angela Bishop says, take a photo of me with Robin Williams and with Billy Crystal. So I took a photo of me with of her with Robin Williams and Billy Crystal.

And then I give her the camera and I say my camera. I say, hey, Ange, can you take a photo of me with Robin Williams and Billy Crystal? And she cropped my head out, And I think she did that on purpose. I think that and you know you did it if you're listening, because she sent me photos the other day, Angela Bishop, and she was bragging about how she met Billy Crystal and Robin Williams. But she took me out of the photo. So I can't even

have any photographic evidence of it. All right, it's coming up to news time, and then we're going to get to doctor Carl Krusiniski, Enda Brady, our UK correspondent, and more on the way. Five minutes to one. Hey Carrie, how are you? She said, I saw Robin Williams and she didn't mention where it was. I guess it would have been a high live concert that would have been

absolutely amazing. Would love to have seen that. You know who else was really good live And I was surprised, not so much the last time he was here in Sydney, but back in the nineties Jerry Seinfeld. He was so funny on stage and one of the funniest things that he did was somebody said can you please go hello Newman? And he sort of rolled his eyes and he went okay, and something that wouldn't ordinarily be that funny, but then he stopped. There was a long pause and he goes,

hello Newman. It was one of the most hilarious things. Oh, that's to your news, and then we'll get to end of Brady.

yet he's also quite tall. So yeah, it's gotta yeah a bit here in a little bit there to answer that question for you, Kerry. Just to continue that thing that you were saying about Robin Williams with your text, she said he was the funniest man alive. I saw him when he came to Australia. No one tells the story about how golf started better than him. Yeah, if you haven't ever seen that, go to YouTube and have a look at the story that Robin Williams talks about

how golf started, because it was absolutely fantastic. And talking about hy this one came in from Bruce who said Ted Cassidy, who was Lurch from the Adams family, was very tall, but he didn't have a very big vocabulary. Well he didn't really need it, did he. I mean, he was lurch I didn't. I think. I don't think he ever said anything on the Adams family. Now you think about it. And a couple of other people sending in text, going, I know some short celebrities for you.

Roger said Andrew O'Keeffe. Never met him, so I can't do the comparison. But Roger also said Grant DNYA, and I mentioned this before, saw Grant walking down the hallway. Grant, he looks short, and I think that sometimes they put him on with a contestant who's really tall, just to sort of rubby his face in it. But I saw Grant and I thought, yep, this is a you know, I got this one. And I said, makee quick photo.

You and I a bit of a tall off, thinking that, you know, I would tower above him, and now I was about the same height. Couldn't believe it. I thought, no, surely I'm taller than him. But no, unfortunately not. Okay, let's get to end of Brady before we do this, though. Let's get just back to something that Donald Trump was saying before when he was on the lawn at the White House. They had the unveiling of the new flag poles on the front lawn of the White House, and

he was talking about that. But he also did manage to get around to talking about the situation with Israel and Iran.

the UK report. Good morning Ender Brady. How are you Is there much of a story over there in the UK? Are people talking about this whole situation much? They are fair?

I think what Starmer's trying to weigh up that if America does get involved with ISRAE and they go after Iran even more, what kind of support will the UK, if any, offer to the United States. It could be use of British air bases in the region. There is raf facretary on Cyprus, it could be refueling. They may well offer fighter jets. We don't know. But Starmer right now is trying to figure out a response, trying to figure out what's happening and trying to figure out a response.

UK related. But this would relate to UK troops. So I think what Starmer is doing is just being prudent and trying to work out a plan that if it comes to it, and you know, there's a good relationship, a very good relationship between the UK and the Trump administration, as evidenced by that deal that was signed the other day, a trade deal. But clearly Starmer was at the G seven and had no idea and no heads up about what Trump plans to do. So I think right now he's trying to just get organized.

call it word salad. You know, It's like he tosses everything up in the air and what lands in the bowl gets served to the people. So it's a very strange way of running an administration. But I do think the United States seems to be leaning towards attacking Iran.

thousands of Americans on the ground there. So he needs to be very, very careful because Iran clearly will not be able to strike the United States of America on American soil, but they could destroy the airbase with two missiles.

in this gas explosion. Then what happened was closer examination of her body they found stab wounds. So the working theory police are looking at is that somebody killed her and then set about creating this gas explosion to make it look as if she had died in a non sinister way. A man in his forties known to her has been arrested. So God Helper, it appears that she herself has become a victim of domestic violence.

it's interesting. The Meteorological Office, who deal with weather patterns in the UK and forecasts, they've come out today in the newspapers and said we need to start planning for forty celsius summers in the south of England. Really, that's the way it's headed.

I'd be more concerned about what we're seeing, this kind of cyber warfare, hybrid warfare and very suspicious incidents involving UK infrastructure. You'll remember a couple of months ago we spoke about the Tricity substation near Heathrow Airport suddenly catching fire and all the power being lost at the airport and flights being canceled for twenty four hours. That still doesn't add up to me.

Ender Brady on the phone. Thanks for hanging on there. I want to talk to you about a couple of things just to wrap up, one being the football and the situation with Ange Posta Cooglu, who of course was with Spurs managed to get them a bit of silverware, but now he's gone.

will be out of a job very long. He has admirers all over the world now, after all that publicity and that amazing night in where was it in let me think Northern Spain that night bill Bow when they won the trophy. So Levy, Daniel Levy is the chairman of Tottenham Hotspur. He's come out today in a video and he said, look, we want to win the Premier League.

And he said it was very difficult to sack and he said we are friends, there's an emotional connection, but he said we want to win the Premier League and finishing seventeenth last season just was not good enough. So despite winning European trophy, they took the view that Tottenham are a long way away from winning the Premier League.

And now they're bringing in this Danish guy from Brentford called Thomas Frank, who they have described as a superhuman and he's going to take a lot of superhuman efforts to get that Tottenham team competitive. Next year, starting August seventeenth, I think in the EPL home to Burnley, so they've just come up from the Championship. Sports should beat them.

names you've mentioned there, Alex Ferguson, Marino, Wenger. They're all given time, you know there are well that's it something yeah and big and has not been given the time and he still was building something and more a trophy. So it's a real shame for him, and I think it's a shame for Tottenham.

who's in Rhana Hills in Brisbane. Who actually said it to Mike Jeffries, but it came through to my box and he said that when I was discussing the chat we had last week about how you went to Peru, he said, I'm a thickhead because I didn't actually talk to you about your visit to mattch You pitch you, So could you just elaborate for Ed, just so I can get out of his bad books. How you experienced was there.

on over tourism and all these rogue traders. So go with someone you trust. You're going to spend four hundred and fifty US dollars. That's what I spent now for that. We got picked up in a minibus. There was a train to a town called Aguas Calientes, which is the

nearest settlement or town beside Matchu Pichu. And then when we got off the train, there was a minibus driver there who took us up to the gates of the park and you go in and you hike from maybe twenty minutes and there in the middle of all these extraordinarily beautiful mountains. It was a scorching hot day. It looked like the gates of heaven were opening up in

front of us. Matchew Peachew. You look down on it, you can find my instagram that end of brady e Nda b or ad Y and you can see some of the pictures I took of it, just off my phone, and it was stunning. I mean, I need to go get a book and learn the history of the place. But how they built it there, how they survived for so long. I didn't see any source of water in the area whatsoever, certainly not near Matcha Piachu. It was brilliant.

And the one other thing I did fill which was very good value for money, we did an organized tour up Rainbow Mountain. Now go on a search engine type in Rainbow Mountain, Peru and check this out. So a glacier has receded and beneath the snow four or five years ago, these extraordinary colors came screening out of the mountainside. The altitude was the same level as base Camp Everest. It was very difficult. There wasn't much oxygen in the air.

But we hiked up there and that was even more beautiful than Matchewpiachu.

seen you. You may be short, but you have a brilliant sense of humor that makes you tall in my eyes. Bless you. Sharon Kerry says, it's good to be Aussie a while it is at the moment here under the well. You would like to think we're here under the wire, but who knows. And another one from Brad Philly were talking about Brad at Saint Mary's. You were talking about heights.

A lot of NROL players are very tall. Ex Roosters player now with the Knights, Dominic Young six', Five Latrell mitchell six y, Three Benda kura from The broncos six foot, nine six.' nine that's, pretty tall. Isn't it and a few other people getting their texts to me, as Well Including, stive even, Who, said phil, You Know jim wilson is. Quite tall thank you so much for. Texting through one

three one eight seven three is the. Phone number if you want to give me, a ring text number zero four six zero eight seven three eight, seven three and keep that text number in mind because you may have a question for next week's segment With Doctor, cayle kruzenski who's on. The phone we'll do the questions that you sent through from last. Week next got a couple of really, good ones including one that we only had a couple of. DAYS ago i remember to Ask doctor carl about this

that's coming up next twenty seven minutes. To two we were talking about short people and, tall people and, You know i've got a friend who's, really tall wish is he. Was shorter, he says whenever he, goes out he feels like he gets in, the way especially at concerts and cinemas and things. Like that and, they, said well it must be better to be tall than to. Be short and we've had quite a few emails. About that and also this one that just came In from John says

phil ever heard that Song? Short people, if not, google, IT no i. Know It randy newman released a song Called, short people and it was very weird because it was canceled before the, cancel culture but then became. Okay AGAIN it's, i mean it depends on how you hear. The song if you heard it when it was, first released it, was OKAY and i think we're talking you're, seventy five maybe. Seventy seven and then it got to a period where, people went hang on, a second this is really insulting to.

Short people and the song, got canceled and then it got back into. Favor again and THE reason i got back into favor was that short people, were, going now hang on, a second this is you don't need to. Do this, you know this song is essentially taking the sting out, of it similar TO when i spoke To One nick ganopolis and, he said and, he, said look the thing about the wog boy was by making wog part of, the language part of, the vernacular you couldn't call a kid that at, school anymore and it be

an insulting term because it had lost. Its sting and they said that was the thing too with the random human song that, you know it took the sting out. Of it, BUT anyway i said further to that one these email and This. Is john women prefer men who are taller, than them but not necessarily all. The, time well my wife's happy as LONG as i eat the potato that she makes for me. For dinner twenty five minutes. To two i've got lots of questions for you From.

Doctor carl and this is For Doctor carl kruzenetski's regular segment we have this Time every thursday morning called Ask doctor carl if you have. A question and there are So Many samon manty good ones came through last Week and i'm going to ask. Them now but if you have a question For doctor carl for, next week zero four six zero eight seven three eight, seven three how?

hands or occasionally medications can help to reduce the. Moves that the results are variable in all drugs, of poisons and they might work for you and they. Might not and sometimes surprisingly, psychological counseling which.

bible it is not legally. Compelling honesty it's just merely giving you a hint that your society expects you to, be truthful and so it's not so much that the, divine authority but rather the land and that you live in has got, specific laws and part of it is that in this, particular case you have to tell the truth about, what happened and if you do not tell, the truth you're, committing perjury and perjury itself is a crime and can bring with it a fine or a.

saunas no but will they make you? Feel, better sure regular sauna will make you. Feel better and in fact they use a regular sauna In the antarctic for people to join the Three, hundred club where they expose themselves to a temperature change of three hundred fahrenheit degrees in a very short period of time the Three.

three eight. Seven, three roger this is very. Good mate why is it that when you see the rims of a tire while the car's, in motion it looks like it's going backwards instead?

how do some people come up with their style? Of dancing, Damn it we've already got a couple, Of questions but hang On because i've got to get back to part two of our chat With doctor carl, after this and we've got to find out more information about the Three hundred club sixteen, to two coming up to thirteen minutes. To two the questions are coming in thick and fast for. Next week Ask. Doctor carl there's some really really. Good ones zero four six zero eight seven three eight seven

three if you'd like to send through. Your, Question Okay, doctor carl thank you for. Hanging on let's get back to something you were talking about a, moment ago because we were talking about infrared saunas and you mentioned the Three. Hundred club so what's that all?

ninety so it's over two. Hundred fahrenheit and they do this only on a day when the air temperature is below one hundred, Fahrenheit negative so in the sauna plus two hundred outside minus one hundred temperature difference more than three, hundred, Crazy, Right okay so then what they do is you own to the sauna naked and they're apart, from shoes and then you sweat away and your skin's being exposed to two hundred plus. Fahrenhede breeze and then after sweating for a,

bit naked you go out into. The dark now this Is The, south pole and it's been dark for a couple, of months and there's, no wind and there's all these people there with lights because a loords you couldn't see where. You're going and then you just gradually try and you've got to have the, sand shoes, you know we're clothes because the ice would freeze from the sweat and the ice could.

regular sauna is the sortas just running and go. In there but my understanding was that most of these infrared saunas that you go through a cycle where you get in there and the temperature is, fairly low say forty, degrees c and then they crank it on and gradually climbs up to about sixty or something and then you, get out and then the next person goes through the.

this Is. From gaga Maybe The lady gaga have been looking for a present for someone who is difficult to, buy for and this book. Is perfect it is the book for, All Occasions Doctor, CARL cruzinisky a, periodic tale available in all. Good, bookshops, now oh.

SAID that i mentioned. This before why is it when you see the rooms on the tire when the car is, in motion it looks like it's going backwards instead. Of forwards listen to this One. From sue what's the funniest word In the? English language this came In? From andrew why is it or how is it that some people come up with their own style? Of dancing this One from chris do any animals? Suffer embarrassment? That's brilliant, claire said how do you choose? Your signature this one that

came In? From simon why is it that you can stand why is it that you can stand the smell of your own farts but you can't stand the smell of? Anybody? Else's fine? Fine questions what about this One from kim who came up with the idea of. ARM wrestling i would like today you came up with the idea about the idea of. Arm wrestling. That's genius and this one Too from peter, who's says why is it that sometimes you fall when you're walking up the stairs or even

walking down. The stairs maybe there's something more to it than just. Paying attention all, brilliant questions, But well i've still got room. For more if you, have any please text them through For doctor carl. Next WEEK and i think even the crazier the better is definitely the prerequisite for this zero four six to zero eight seven three eight. Seven three want to give me? A ring I saw tracy rang. Through before we'll talk to her after the

news one three one eight. Seven three, coming up we're going to speak To Leasth van Onslin the Treasury Of, common sense and as, you Know it's. Thursday morning we'll go into the live lounge with an acoustic performance of.

know where that is who sent me. This text you didn't have your name. On, it anyway it feels like zero point one degree In. Willow tree and you also gave me a question For doctor carl on the, text too this is. Very good why do we yawn when we? Get itchy? Like that like that? A lot And also, wayne says why is passing wind called? A fart, well again brilliant questions For. Doctor carl appreciate you sending. Those three i'm going to catch Up with Leith van onslan

in this hour and in the. Live lounge, famous man, very famous very famous song, international artist great series of, you know. Life stories who? Is it we'll find out in. A, Moment, hello tracy how are?

and don't Tell me trump's. Forgotten it i'm sure he, has.

When those chinese warships Were. Around australia don't tell me feel that there Wasn't a chinese submarine going around Their, circumnavigating australia, that's.

Get The New. South wales it's a. Great guard well THAT'S what, i think because, you know what do you Think The New South wales libs can do to try and get things.

and i immediately my suspicion was. Immediately, RAISED.

place for. A while, but look, TO me i think that they're a terrible Combination Our Australian, labor PARTY and i really don't think they're up to the job of running. The country we're going to go To where, victoria's gone where we're going to, be bankrupt and the government's going to be talent us about everything they tell us is how good they, they're doing how good we, are doing

or they always use complimenting words in anything. They say they're coming out in their statements Now the the other THING that i wanted to talk about too Is with trump leading the heads of government Meeting. IN canada i picked up something today which was a, bit concern and that was there's some general of seeing in general Over in iran Saying that israel uses nuclear worker a nuclear Weapons, against Iran then pakistan will coming. To help and it sort of made me and there was a bit more to.

That comment it, Get onto it, got onto.

of the other, countries there but Mostly. On israel and that sort of thing needed, to stop and with it either its. NUCLEAR weapons i heard some feel and full DEBATE a bbc presenter on the need on, his opinion which was To let iran. CONTINUE negotiating, I mean i. DON'T know i can Understand the the's really been a bit concerned about negotiating because while they got negotiations were,

Going on iran's. Building up it's to positively and concentrate of of nuclear, nuclear matter AND all i had to do then is to figure out how to get onto, a weapon and they could inflict a of a lot of damage On. On Israel but i'm just wondering WHETHER what i picked Up about trump going back might have been connected with that comment From the Range in general general and his comments ABOUT israel us nuclear Weapon. Against Iran then, pakistan, will well we'll use its nucutive Weapons.

Against Israel and i'm not really seeing What role pakistan has in all. The list but, you, know friends, you know when you've got friends, like that you call. THEM in i guess, All, right.

As well you've had some treatment, about this, you said but the verdico still returns and a night only sleep on, one side the. Right side i'll tell. You what and, you say it's not, life threatening but the dizziness is extreme and only lasts for. THIRTY seconds i know somebody that suffered, From, verdigo susanne and also said what you're saying about the the calcium, crystal particles and, You know i'll follow that up and, Tomorrow, Night susanna i'll have

an answer for that for. You too i'll find OUT what. I can here's a text without. A name airbus albow one million dollars polluting? The earth are you a watermelon or? WHAT made i don't really know what, that means, but Okay um tracy talks and makes a lot. Of sense you hosting twogb is a worry a. Bit shifty i'm a. Bit, shifty well don't lend me your, wallet Then, Unlike, Jones, Lawsy carlton Stanley, and. Zomanic, etc, well hey thanks for putting me in the same category as those people appreciate

Carbonate particles AND again i only know this BECAUSE somebody i know has vertigo and brought up the

whole crystal calcium thing and it was more. THAN crystals i remember her talking about THAT and, I, thought oh that's. Really interesting and then when you mentioned this on, THE text, i, THOUGHT oh i might be able to help you out. With that SO hopefully i can do that. Tomorrow, night mick by, the, way said just an update and how it feels Temperature. Wising golban it's like six. Point three it's actually minus six point Three in golban feels more

like minus ten. Point, three gee, that's cold. Isn't it have you found that you're getting more hungry? During Winter because chris and the studio next door On the Wheels of steel said he's got, some biscuits so they brought them in and, you know Immediately both DALE and i just jumped straight In and dale was saying he's feeling a lot hungrier, during winter and my wife was. Saying that, She said i've been a lot hungrier, during Winter and i've been waking up a lot hungrier. Myself too must

be due to the. Cold weather i'm, not sure but that's. ANOTHER question i think that we can ask To Doctor carl kruzeneski that why is it when we get to winter we're hungrier than? In summer is it because we have to put on some extra. Lay layering that's my, excuse anyway for the extra speed Tie that i'm. Currently wearing, all right twenty six minutes. Part too let's get To Leath van nonsalin and get some common sense from the treasury now.

first be Supplied. To australians they basically, open up allowed the building and then the opening up of these massive Export, Terminals gladston queensland which basically freeze, our gas put them on ships and then sell Off, to asia Mostly. The china and gas exports aren't uncommon around. The world there's other places that. Do It western australia, does it, for Example The united states. Does it a whole bunch of

places to do it around. The world but every other jurisdiction except For The east Coast of australia which has a gas that, exports gas has a reservation policy wherever they're required to supply the domestic market first before they. Can export but for some, crazy reason we decided not to do that In The east coast and this polsy era, has MADE as, I Said East coast australia the only gas export in jurisdiction in the world not to have

a domestic. Reservation policy and what that's meant is that we pay the highest gas prices in the world out of every gas, exporting jurism which is. Crazy stuff so despite doubling so these gas export terminals came online in twenty Fifteen, In, gladston queensland and since, that happened we've actually doubled the production gas On The east Coast, of australia yet we're actually supplying twenty five percent less gas

to the. Domestic market so what we're what they're effectively done is they've ramped, up production but they've hoovered the gas offshore and they're selling most of That. To china and we On The east coast we export nearly three quarters of, our gas but we starve the domestic market of gas and as, a Result The east coast price is roughly tripled since these exports. Came online so back in, twenty fifteen we're paying around four dollars a giga duel

for a gas in. These coast now we're paying twelve dollars plus it depends on. The data, you know average sort of around twelve, dollars now so it's. Basically tripled but you know it does go up. And down so a couple days ago was at sixteen dollars. For example and this surge in gas prices On the east case is actually driven up your electricity bills. As well so if you're listening to This in Sydney, and brisbane your,

electricity prices as you, all know have gone up. As well and part of the reason for that's not the, only reason but part of the reason is this surge in, Gas prices so it's a. Double amy it's driven up, gas price which is. HARMED manufacturing i Live in victoria where we heat our homes of gas that's pushed up those prices has made costably being a lot more, expensive Then so i've driven up all of our electricity prices because gas is one of the price centers in the wholesale.

Electricity market so during the, election Campaign the coalition promised to implement these coast gas reservation policy was actually, excellent policy and what they wanted to do is they want to basically Force The east coast gas producers to divert their.

Uncontracted gas so at the moment that they've got these tracts that start to expire in twenty thirty all the way through to twenty thirty five To supply, china mostly but there's also, uncontracted gas which is basically they sell in what's called the, spot market which is the uncontracted.

Gas market just the price fluctuates, every day And the coalition wanted to force them instead of selling that uncontracted, gas overseas which they're doing to supply the domestic market to bring, down prices and the promised to lie of these coast gas price to blow ten dollars in giggul from, you KNOW as, i said twelve dollars can be more than that depending on. The day and the counterfacial to doing this fill is before we don't have A, reservation

polse we don't fix. This problem we're actually despite the fact That The east coast exports nearly three QUARTERS of, us gas we're actually scheduled to start importing gas to open up import Terminals import Kembla In New south wales

and then Also in victoria later and Then Possibly. South australia it was going to be late, this year but the timetable keeps getting, pushed out but it could be next year or the, year after and when we start, importing gas the price is actually going to rock it even higher because at the moment we're basically paying the,

international price but the export. Parity price what. That is it's the, international price but before you've, you've liquified and before you've, shipped it so that you know the liquefaction process and shipping adds like another three dollars a gigadewelt more than, that often but will effectively be paying the current price of plus signific could margin above that and it could go up to. Twenty dollars we, don't know

so we really want to. Avoid that, But Unfortunately labour's resource minister during, The Election, medaline king dismissed coalition's, gas policy called it the. Fort bubble just, Last Week Prime Minister anthony ALBANY'S actually i think his week before claimed that the coalition's gas reservation policy was quote plucked out of. A, COCO yes I think i mentioned that a.

don't have. A Reservation East coast australia is facing the prospect of having THE import L. And g we're facing shortages for facing sky, high prices and those sky high prices will see the electricity price higher and that's going to push. Up inflation send more manufacturing broke, because gas industrial heat from gas and just electricity more generally it can put to the manufacturing process and if you drive the cost, of that we become. Less competitive we're going to send

all this. Stuff offshore now that this is a long winded introduction to what has happened, this week which just adds even more fuel to the. Idiocy fire so this week We saw australia gas is idiocy basically mushroom and. Become worse So patrolling australia is Like a an industry newsletter reported that the country's largest liquified natural gas export on. These coasts They're Called australia pacific L, and g which

is partly Owned By. Origin energy they've agreed to substantial price reduction on their contracted Gas, with china which and the Contract With China's, china cinepec Which Is chinese communists be owned. Energy firm so currently this Age OF pacific Lerg supplies China With east coast. Liquified gas they provide that seven point six million tons, a year which, is huge.

paying higher and higher prices for. Our gas now the industry estimate is that this new contract price is going to be as well as thirteen. Dollars. Gigitule now when this price cut was announced a couple of, Days Ago Australia's east coast, spot price so that's the current trading price was traded sixteen dollars and local, contract prices so this is a lotness of stuff under contract not fail on the, you know on the fluctuating instant market is

tracking around fourteen. Dollars gigdule so what this means Is That Australian east coast gas is going to be Cheaper in china than it Is, in.

markets for a profit and making money. Off it so the obvious question here is why the Hell are australians being starved of their own gas and forced to pay more than you Know some asian nations who we sell our.

Gas to and if, you see got even worse phil because just just after this was reported earlier this week and sort Of From abu dhabi In The middle east has launched an eight eight point seven billion dollar takeover bid for gas giant austraining Gas giants santos and they run TO export L and g trains OUT, of gladsns so they're also sucking Up Our east coast gas and

selling it Up. Short asia so now it's Now The middle east one in and they want to buy that, export train So potentially straight could lose critical now energy assets To A middle east and conglomic and, you know you have to ask the question why are as trains the last in line for their? Own gas why are we being starved of our own gas which is forcing

up cost. Of living, YOU know i Live, in MELBOURNE as, i said and we use gas, for heating so, we're paying, you know through the nose to just eat to heat. Our homes i've got a gas stove or gas. Water water manufacturing manufacturers are paying through the nose for, their gas which is seen in the whole bunch of. Manufacturers broke we have the smallest manufacturing share in the. Advanced world we've just seen our last major plastics manufacturer shutdown,

last year our last architectural glassmaker. Shut down. This year we've seen a whole bunch of manufacturers threatened the clothes. Or downsize where we've lost. Fertilizer makers the reason why the companies have left is because of expensive, energy costs. Primarily gas so what are we? Doing here and these super high gas prices are also forcing up our, electricity

prices which again feeds into everything in. The Economy if australia doesn't have, cheap energy we don't have a. Modern economy it's as simple, as that and it is the bedrock for. Modern economy and yet we've got this clown.

Show happening we're the only place in the world on these coast that doesn't reserve our gas st, keys first and we've got these these foreign an gas Companies and i'm Saying even santos it's, you know trade On the australian, sockey change but it's it's it's primarily, foreign owned but

the people are in the shares. Are offshore so so we have all these foreign own gas companies which are basically pillaging this coast for, its gas starving these coast consumers, of gas forcing up, our prices causing a manufacturing sector to move offshore and, go broke which costs, us jobs makes us less, diversified economy pushed up the whole cost

base throughout. The economy and and, you know this is all happened at the same time As the albanie government wants to build one point two million homes over five years as the. Housing, target well guess What feel one of the main inputs building homes, is, Bricks right but brickworks requires which which is one of the major Makers of. Australian bricks they, require gas, you know to make. The bricks and if you, make expensive you make. Bricks expensive

we're therefore pushed up the cost. Of housing so that that's just one mere microcosm of the sort of costs we're dealing. With you but the fact of the Matter is australia is the second biggest gas exporter in. The world we're the biggest. Coal exporter we have tons of your owning which you have the cheapest energy in, the world or some of the cheapest energy in. The world, but instead through idiotic policy and again utter neglect from our policy makers and just allow these companies to run

right on us and do whatever. They want we're getting absolutely. Shafted here and the fact of the matter Is we australia's gas Belongs. To australians our riches should, come first and, Without reservation without reserving our gas and forcing it to be Supplied to australians first at a. Reasonable cost this energy inflation is going to continue, to rise the cost of living pressures will remain and funding will remain higher than it. Should Be an australia's economy is going to

continue to. Be industrialized it is that serious.

and there's nothing to be. Seen THERE. That's cnn and also they're saying Now On fox news that sirens are Happening in Israel as iran has. Launched missiles, but THERE as, i said they're panning the sky with the CAMERA on cnn and there's nothing there to be seen at. The moment but and it's interesting because that's been up for the last three or four. Minutes too they've been, saying this so, you know it's not a great deal and a great distance to fly through to from the one

country to. The others i'm just looking at, the, yeah again looking AT the. Tv screens nothing, to promote there's nothing to tell. You that but After this i'll give you. An update i'll give you more of an update of what's.

Going on nineteen minutes, To, three yeah sixteen minutes. Two three so at the Moment In tel aviv it's seven forty four pm and there are sirens being Heard over israel, missiles intercepted According To, fox NEWS and i did read That The Israeli defense force have sent fifty plus fighters fighter jets to continue with the Strikes. In iran but in, The meantime iran have been sending Missiles. Towards israel that's a warning that came in as being Heard, across israel

as well. As sirens at, the moment there's SO as, i said it's, really surreal especially to sit in a Country like australia and, you know not that we would ever have a situation, like this but to when, we hope but to be looking up AT the tv on what's a relatively clear Scar in israel for people there to know that these missiles are. Coming in but there's no OTHER footage i got coming up at the moment

in terms of being able to bring this. To you if anything HAPPENS, On cnn i'll immediately flick the switch. On this But The Ayatola, Ali kameni iran, supreme leader has Definitely Rejected president trump's demand for unconditional surrender amidst a rapidly escalating Conflict, with israel and in a, Televised address kameni asserted That the iranian nation is not one, to surrender and caution that ANY direct us military involvement

would result in irreparable Damage. To americans that's as a result. That speech as a result of this Speech By, donald trump.

about the Situation. With Iran The supreme Leader in iran has declared that the battle has begun in his first STATEMENT that i was talking about a. Moment ago this is also a response TO The Us President donald trump SAYING the us would Spare The Iranian supreme leader from assassination for now in a trilling a chilling. Reciprocal Threat the IRANIAN state tv also warned of a major surprise tonight now that has been hanging around for the last few hours, at least maybe even as much as, a

day the warning of a major. Surprise tonight so is that? Tonight tonight currently seven forty seven Pm In, tel aviv and STILL as i LOOK up c andm's just come back on clear skies there at, the moment no sign of these incoming missiles that they've been. Waiting for but they have, had SIRENS and i led to believe that they have managed to. Shoot DOWN the idf says have

shot down some missiles that have been Launched. By Iran mister trump Threatened The, supreme leader calling him an easy target in a post on truth social and also he went on, to say This Is, donald trump that they have complete and Total control he's CONFIRMED the us is part of the Conflict, with iran and he appeared to offer the conversation and the confirmation That The united states is now Participating in israel's attack On on this is due to the escalating Tensions And donald trump going on

Dot Com So, donald trump who was out On The white house lawn earlier on, this morning about three, hours ago installing new, flag poles looking very. Very RELAXED and i, mentioned this it's probably the Most relaxed i've. Ever Seen donald trump going on about the flagpoles that, they're installing that they've been waiting to install out the front Of The, white house and he said that these are the best

flag poles anywhere. The world and he went on about them being, nicely tapered and then he took a few questions from. The, Press, well linberhold that just looked up at the Telly On. Fox news and he's out there again again doing a more formal thing about the. Flag poles this time he's. Come out last time he didn't have a. Tie on this time he's, come out he's

got his. Tie on he's talking about the flag poles Again, and CHRIS and i was Just saying chris in the studio next door that these flag poles are certainly getting, you know their. DUE diligence, i mean they're going going on about. These flagpoles so It's Like donald trump doesn't have a care in. The world we'll keep you updated on what's, going on and also we'll have a Chat With terry barnes in just a moment to get this

week in politics both here and. Also OVERSEAS and i believe we do have a Correspondent in Israel In tel aviv that we're going to go to at some stage this. Morning too it's coming up to nine minutes past. Three now we do This every thursday morning and it's Called The Thursday More, music club or we often sometimes call

it To The Thursday Morning. Live lounge and this is where we have somebody come in play a song, for us we have a chat, with him we get a bit of an, acoustic performance, sometimes live sometimes in this case.

Pre RECORDED because i caught up with this gentleman when he was Last in australia and It was i'm, a big big fan love this GUY since i was sixteen years, of age so it was a real fanboy moment, for me and he played one of his biggest hit singles on, his own but he plugged in essentially, a sequencer so he had a backing track going, with it and the rest of it was just him acoustic with this sort of sequencer. Backing track who are you, Talking, About phil

who is this big star that you caught up? With, recently well it was none Other Than sting sting from. THE police i asked him how. He was, I'M good i can cross this one off my bucket List because i've been a huge FAN since i was. About sixteen we finally got to. That chat you're showing our age a return to a rock sound that you haven't done for. A while why did you decide to get back?

The adventure i'm driving. The van, one night there was about three in the morning down a Motorway, in England and henry was in the front.

The Thursday Morning live Lounge. From sting and here's A song i can guarantee you probably know incredible an incredible, technology too using a sequencer essentially so that it sounds like it's, a drum but it's just a sequencer and his, own vocals which he looped to sing over the top of his. Backing vocals he could have been a one man band and maybe didn't even need. The police, but yeah what A Terrific Thursday morning. Live Lounge and wayite

said he enjoyed the, chat TOO so i appreciate. That feedback. That's nice it's one of the BEST ones i think we've had For The Thursday Morning live lounge. So far somebody says on The text sting, beautiful music. Beautiful, human yeah a very very laid, back guy very sure, of himself but not at all aloof, you know and a really smart guy to, you know somebody who's spent most of his life reading because he used to be, a teacher reading really, intellectual novels so he knows exactly where he's.

Coming FROM To helli sharon thank you so much for your text that. Came in and just getting back To These donald trump, Flag poles, BARBARA said i think the flag poles are a Gift From donald trump personally To The. White. House here they are the two new large flag poles On The white house grounds there for the north and, south lawns are basically a Gift From donald trump to,

the nation because he's paying for. Them himself they're nearly one hundred, feet tall Described By donald trump as the most magnificent poles, ever made tapered tall, and rustproof of the, highest quality and one of the personal touches he wants to add To The white house what he gets the chance to, do that which IS why i think he's been out there twice so far looking at the flag poles and making it a bit of a ceremony. FOR himself i guess, all right twenty one minutes, past three

let's Get To terry barnes. After this three. Twenty five maria just sent a, Text saying israels the mouthy kid in the schoolyard who likes stirring Up trouble knowing that the big muscle, bound BROTHER the, us brother will be able to show up and save. His back sye that came In from maria somebody else without a name on The, text phil who played last week In The Thursday Morning. LIVE lounge I Was john Stevens. From noiseworks that was. Traffic too don't know who we're going to have. Next, Week.

Hallo tiff how are You? In melbourne she says at the Moment in Victoria In south morangue. FREEZING cold i had my FLU in covid vaccinations AND now i have a pretty sore Arm and i'm cold. As well it's. Cold everywhere brisbane at the moment twelve feels. Like nine And, in sydney if you're feeling, the cold there's a good reason for that, six degrees but it feels like three at. The moment three. Twenty Six terry barnes joins us at this time. Every week he's, a columnist he's a political and.

Policy consultant he's The former howard, government advisor and he Has this Week in politics.

before they could reach an agreement on. A communicate we reach an agreement, on anything reach certainly not reach an Agreement on Israel and iran and of course the hangars on Like Our Prime Minister, anthony alberanisi who. Were THERE really i think almost, the decoration except for the possibility of these. Sideline meetings it really just seems to me that it delivered some good pictures FOR the. Tv years it delivered that. Family photo but, BEYOND that, i mean what's.

THE point, I think i think the time has come or to actually quietly put. TO sleep, i mean it was started fifty years ago as a way Of the western great powers to have a bit of a chat once a year at, leader level but really it's just become simply a, talking shop, a gapfest but with no clear agenda and no clear decisive leadership coming out.

then maybe just maybe it's got. A purpose but really what we saw was a couple of a couple of what do they call them pitfacts in terms, Of, opportunity yeah and a few meetings that all seemed to revolve around one. Certain leader and my sense is That While donald Trump is president Of The, united STATES the g seven is always going to BE the g one and everybody else is Living In.

that was encouraging ACTUALLY the. G seven one of the few things that was ENCOURAGING the g seven was That When British Prime Minister keir Starmer and trump, got together they both AGREED that orcus was a. Good Thing So donald trump has actually learnt since earlier in the year when he didn't seem to have a clue about IT what ucus. Actually is BUT certainly i think you don't

want to, look desperate but you don't want to. Look dabtless my sense is THAT if i was Advising The, Prime minister i'd, be, saying well just, you go just, pace yourself don't, look desperate don't try and get through the door at the. First opportunity don't take it personally that you did not get Stuck By donald. TRUMP leaving I Mean donald trump left for. GOOD reason, I mean

i'm not a great, trump man as. You, KNOW look i think we're dealing with a global, crisis here, and potentially if it's mismanaged or, miscalculations happened we could be on the brink of something. Really CATASTROPHIC so i think it was quite reasonable for him to go back To The white house in the situation room to work.

Than that so, my Sense and i'm not a strategic or a defense expert in, any sense but certainly as a, POLITICAL watcher i have to say that all the indications Are That president trump is actually gearing up to Bring The united states into this militarily in. Some WAY and i would think it is probably in relation to the Pressure from israel to support their nuclear facility busting effort by bringing in the big bunker busting bombs That the. American Has the americans have That the israelis don't.

Lacks those it has very good, fighter bombers top top notch, fighter bombers and they have bunker busting bombs of, their own but the only bunker bust to the depth of, six meters Whereas the american bunker busting bombs actually can very smart and they can drill down sixty meters. Or more and that's in the Mountains of iran where the chief uranium enrichment. Facility is that's the type of bomb that is needed to actually destroy it as opposed to merely. Damage it the other, THING is.

so it's a really delicate situation. We're in and regardless of what you think about the players, in it if there is, a mistake if there is a, miscalculation here it can be catastrophic for all.

i mean it's. Almost instantaneous it was actually much slower, than that but, EVEN so, i mean it's a lot Of, but europe the world was waiting back then with the other, shooter drop and eventually in the Beginning of august nineteen fourteen.

It did you could say it's the same as very Similar to august nineteen, thirty nine the months Before The world war two started with certainly the doings and throwings Between the germans And the russians that led To The Riven shrop molotov pacts that actually seed the way for the Invasion. OF poland, i mean all of these if we're seeing something a little, similar Now though god help, HAS hope i hope it never comes to that type of.

Be blocked and if he's prepared to put his well actions where his, words are you'd have to assume that he is gearing up to BRING the us Into supporting israeli one some way.

The americans that didn't really matter in the biggest scheme, of things but it looked like there was something for. Something deal but in, this, case, well Look Maybe, donald trump he's the. Deal maker he could come up. With something BUT really i think we're in a very very difficult. Situation here but on, THIS one i actually actually Back To. Donald trump if he is prepared to actually take.

the week. In politics so let's get back to we were talking about a truce In The. Middle east let's get to. Another truth and this Is The, liberal party Especially In New. South wales how's the party? Getting on is everybody?

Executive liberal party late. Last year what they don't like is the fact that the executive put in a Couple, Of victorians Alan, Stocktor Fort jeff kennet's former treasurer and former Our Minister richard austen and and really it was what what does come out this week is that they've kicked The two victorians out and They've Put nick griner particularly in. Their players but really the factional nest vipers

that's In The South Wales liberal. Party continues the fact that they they lost they lost seats in the recent, federal election the fact that they don't really look like they're in a position to be a viable alternative youngments in the upcoming state Election In south wales which has still got a way.

a question of young. Versus old it's a question of people actually want to be part of something that is such a such a dog's breakfast that is becoming increasingly used to losing and not winning that if you really want to make a career in politics and publics Herberts His liberal party the way to. GO anymore a lot of people suddenly are thinking maybe. It's Not.

the dead wood and the. Non performers the organization certainly needs to be cleaned out which is why there was a federal intervention in. FIRST place i mean you had a party organization that couldn't actually organize its candidates the last year's local government Elections In New. South wales that's how messy.

where it is. A government That. Is queensland and YOU noticed i Didn't mention, tasmania there although notionally it's Got A liberal, party GOVERNMENT because i suspect after the Nineteenth, of july because of this absolutely, foolhardy election they're called that there won't Be a liberal government.

election has shut the. Temporary setback and we saw that the consequences of that type of thinking on the Third, of may Didn't, we well.

for Australia for. Australian history it was the beginning really Of our european history in terms of, the settlement, and that in, my view is not a. Bad thing many other people these days think, it isn't which IS why i think if we look at the media at coverage of this over the last few Days, in australia it's barely troubled. TO scorers, I mean i'm old enough. TO remember i don't know if, You, Are phil i'm sure

you're only twenty one and a bite and. A bit in the, late sixties in nineteen sixty nine to, nineteen seventy in the run up To The cook, byson tenary everybody was advidly following the raising of endeavors cannons Off The Great barrier reef because that was seed as getting in Touch with. Cook relics at the time Of The.

Bison tenry but here we are we have the wreckage of the, real endeavor that the, actual ship, IT'S herself i like, to, say herself not itself ship as, a sheet but certainly we have the wreckage there and according To The Australia National, maritime museum that's been a big part of researching this and Offshore, In Newport. Rhode island when you think, About it australia too probably sailed over her when she. Went one that's a.

of its role in. The world, so look this has had more coverage IN, the us that's had more Coverage in britain than has Had, in AUSTRALIA and i just think that's. Absolutely surprised well he probably shouldn't be surprised in this day, and age but certainly as somebody who was young enough or old enough but very young then to remember The cook by centenary AND as, i say the example of the excitement caused by the raising of

endeavors canons then as opposed to the. Ship, ITSELF now i just think it's Highlights how australia, has changed our mindset. HAS changed i don't necessarily think in that sense it's changed for.

and It, is thursday Nineteenth. Of june cold out there at, the moment, no kidding it is nine degrees at the Moment, in brisbane but it feels a lot colder. Than That, but sydney, forget Them as connefruiter, would say forget about It in sydney at. The moment, six degrees but it feels.

LIKE three i haven't been. Out there it was cold on the way in on my way to work, this EVENING but i haven't been out there for obviously for, a while for a. Few hours but it gives you a good example of what it feels like if You're in sydney and, you're cold getting down to what feels like. Three degrees let's get your news update and then we're going to Go To tel Aviv And lisa segalov Is. An australian she's. A lawyer she lives In. Tel aviv she's just come out of a bunker after a recent

air raid siren that just happened In. Tel aviv so we'll get the update on what her life is like on a day to day basis In. TEL aviv i mentioned this before when you look at they had some incoming missiles going Into tel aviv Shot, from IRAN and i guess again reciprocal action BECAUSE the idf sent some jets Into, bomb iran so that come the Missiles from Iran.

Into israel they had the cameras as the sun went down about seven O'clock In, tel aviv and it was amazing to look at it because it was just clear blue skies and it would look like you would look out the window, right now if you looked out the window and it, was sunny it would be like you're in a suburban neighborhood looking out at. The sky incredible to think that that footage. Was live but they were

aware of incoming missiles at. The time it's the kind of thing that, you know we never get our head around fortunately living in an amazing Country. Like australia BUT when i Speak To lisa segalov in just a moment after the, News update i'll ask her. About that i'll ask her what her day to day. Is like and, you know does it become the norm when You hear? Rair sirens do you become innude to it after a while, you, go well that's the, sirens again that's all the head

down to. The bunker i'll have a chat with her. About that and also, coming up we're going to catch up without Good Mate, luke bono who's been on holiday his daughter, got married so he's had a bit of, a decision but he'll be back to talk about that and also to take.
