The Family Show

[00:00:00] Speaker A: The best music from the 60s to today. IPL radio. [00:00:06] Speaker B: Good afternoon, everybody. This is the Family. This is the family show on IPL Radio. My name is Toby and I am Amy. [00:00:13] Speaker C: And I am N. And our main. [00:00:16] Speaker B: Topic for today is Anzac Day, which is not tomorrow, but the day after, which is Friday. [00:00:23] Speaker D: Yep. [00:00:23] Speaker E: The 25th of April. And yes, we're going to be talking a little bit about Anzac Day. And I also saw that yesterday was International Mother Earth Day. [00:00:38] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:00:38] Speaker E: Did you know that? [00:00:39] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:00:40] Speaker E: Did you? Where did you hear that? I didn't know that you knew that. [00:00:44] Speaker B: Well, I did, but I didn't know that. Like, when I went on to Google, it had like international, like, I clicked on it and it said, like, International Mother Kids Day. [00:01:00] Speaker E: Okay. Yeah, yeah. So it's International Mother Earth Day. [00:01:04] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:01:04] Speaker E: So it's that, you know, like on a spiritual level, connection to the universe and. Yeah. So I thought we could talk about that a little bit today too. [00:01:14] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:01:14] Speaker E: What do you think? [00:01:15] Speaker B: Sounds good. [00:01:16] Speaker E: Awesome. So let's get into some music because. And here loves to have a little groove when she's on air with us. [00:01:25] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:01:27] Speaker B: And just off air, she was. She had her headphones on listening to the Galway Girl by Ed Sheeran and she was yelling. [00:01:39] Speaker E: Yes. It was a. It was very loud. She didn't realize how loudly she was singing. So we had to get her to take her headphones off so that she wasn't singing. Singing so loudly in the studio. Yeah, because you could hear her over the music in the studio. [00:01:57] Speaker B: Shall we tear to a song? [00:01:58] Speaker E: Absolutely. What have we got? [00:02:00] Speaker B: Coming up as it was by Harry. [00:02:02] Speaker A: Style, the best music from the 60s to today. IPL radio. [00:02:09] Speaker B: That was I Don't Want to Wait by David Gutter. One and. And one Republic. [00:02:17] Speaker E: Yeah, that's the one. [00:02:18] Speaker B: And then also we. Before that, Titanium David Gutter, also by Sia and Sia. [00:02:30] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:02:31] Speaker B: Good job muddling my words up a little bit. [00:02:34] Speaker E: That's okay. That's show business. [00:02:36] Speaker D: Right. [00:02:38] Speaker E: So if you have just joined us, we are here live from Rockingham IPL Radio here in Rockingham, I should say. And we are the family show. And we are a homeschool family who we. We talk about different topics each week. [00:02:56] Speaker B: That we cover and dive into homeschool topics. And that's what really good about radio is that we learn from. Learn about things that we never knew before and then talk about it to the world and then other people can learn and then we have fun like dad jokes and more learning in Italian. [00:03:17] Speaker E: Absolutely. I needed that radio segment because it was a reminder to get your Italian done each week, because that is not my strong point as your teacher. Sorry. But we do it now. [00:03:34] Speaker C: Yeah, we do different languages. [00:03:37] Speaker E: Pardon? [00:03:37] Speaker C: We do different languages. [00:03:39] Speaker E: Different languages, yes. We do Italian. That's the main one that we're. We're working on, isn't it? [00:03:45] Speaker B: And a little bit of sign language. [00:03:48] Speaker E: Yes. Did you just sign? [00:03:50] Speaker D: Thank you. Yeah. [00:03:52] Speaker E: To end. Yeah, absolutely. Yeah. I. I think we need to do a little bit more because I think it could be quite useful sign language. But it was definitely we. We went for Italian because I did that at school. [00:04:06] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:04:06] Speaker B: And that'll be really easy to transfer. [00:04:08] Speaker E: It is. It's easier for me to remember. [00:04:11] Speaker B: And then also, like, I enjoy it. [00:04:14] Speaker E: Yeah, absolutely. Especially with your Italian hands. [00:04:16] Speaker B: Yeah, Italian hand. It is always the Italian hand. [00:04:23] Speaker E: So you guys have been learning a little bit about Anzac Day. In preparation for Anzac Day coming up each year, we bake something. What do we bake on Anzac Day? [00:04:37] Speaker B: Anzac cookies. [00:04:38] Speaker C: Yay. [00:04:39] Speaker E: Yummy, yum, yum. We make our own from scratch, which we'll do again this year. I think we've already got the coconut. We need to make sure that it's all in date. The designated coconut. Do you know the story behind the Anzac cookies? Why are they called Anzac cookies? [00:04:58] Speaker B: Because of, like, all the women. Because of. In the past, during wars. [00:05:06] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:05:07] Speaker B: Women were allowed to be in the. In any of the. [00:05:13] Speaker E: The wars. [00:05:14] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:05:15] Speaker E: Yeah. Well, typically the women were left at home and then they. They ended up having to take care of all the jobs that typically the men would have taken care of. [00:05:26] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:05:28] Speaker B: And then they wanted to have a little. They made. They cooked something and then the recipe was to. Had, like, a lot of sugar in there. One, to keep it to last. For it to last a lot longer. Two, so they have a little bit more energy. [00:05:50] Speaker E: Could be. Yeah, yeah. So I think it started because predominantly would have been women back in those days wanted to send a treat to the anzac. So the Australian army, the Australian New Zealand Army Corps is what it stands for. So they wanted to send a treat off overseas to those that were fighting in war, and they had to find a recipe that would allow the treat to last for a long time. And that's how, you know, they sort of experimented and they came up with the Anzac cookie, and that's how it got its name, was the Anzac Cookie, because that was the cookie that they were able to send off to the anzacs. And, yeah, so you're right, it does have quite a lot of sugar and golden syrup to preserve It. [00:06:50] Speaker D: Yes. [00:06:51] Speaker C: And what I love about Anzac Day is because I have a sweet tooth. [00:06:57] Speaker E: Oh, yes, there's treats. [00:07:00] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:07:00] Speaker E: Yes. [00:07:01] Speaker B: All your teeth are sweet tooth. You could, you could eat like a whole mansion made out of chocolate one day if you're allowed to. [00:07:10] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:07:11] Speaker E: And then we look at, we do some math on Anzac Day. Two each year we do some chance and data. Record keys. Yes. [00:07:23] Speaker B: I think the last time we played it I was like, I don't remember playing this. [00:07:28] Speaker E: Yeah, yeah. You say that to me every year, but we play it every year. So what game? Do you know what the name of the game is? [00:07:33] Speaker B: No, but I know how to play it. [00:07:35] Speaker E: Yeah. So it's called 2Up. And so 2Up is a game that is often played at pubs. Pubs and stuff on Anzac Day, particularly where the, the defense force go catch up and hang out on Anzac Day and then they, they play two Up. And so we turn it into. Not a gambling kind of thing. It's more of a. We do some math with it. We do some chance and data and we, we record keep. And then we sometimes do some graphs about the, the data that we've recorded. [00:08:16] Speaker D: Yeah, yeah. [00:08:18] Speaker E: So two Ups are a good game that you can look at on Anzac Day and learn about it. I don't know the history behind 2Up. So maybe we can look into that this year. [00:08:32] Speaker B: And again, like every week we have something that we talk about, main topic and then we have something else that we go off and then have something else to learn about. [00:08:42] Speaker E: Yeah. Like I need, I need to actually have a piece of paper and say, let's write this down. Have our running list of what we're going to explore when we get back home. [00:08:54] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:08:55] Speaker E: So what else can you tell me that you've learned about Anzac Day? Yes. You know, you know, we're not in a classroom and our listeners can't see your hand going up. Right. Or is it just for our benefit that you're just like, let me know when I can talk. Oh, okay, cool. [00:09:17] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:09:18] Speaker E: What can you tell me about Anzac Day? [00:09:20] Speaker C: It's about like a membering who fought so we can be free. And you remember who fought for us to be free. [00:09:32] Speaker E: Yeah, absolutely. So it's, it's giving that, that time of reflecting that these people who have fallen have, you know, they've sacrificed, they've made sacrifices for our freedom. [00:09:47] Speaker D: Yeah, right. [00:09:48] Speaker E: And, and so it's, it's really important to remember those people and, and you know, learn about, learn about the history of Anzac Day and remember them. [00:09:59] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:09:59] Speaker B: And remembering them it can be emotional sometimes too. Like, it's, it's, it's totally fine because that's like. [00:10:10] Speaker E: Yeah, that's a, that's a part of it. Absolutely. Yes, Ed. [00:10:16] Speaker C: And also, like this donkey and this man, like, was carrying this like, like. [00:10:25] Speaker B: Injured man in World War I. Yeah. [00:10:29] Speaker C: To the beach. [00:10:30] Speaker E: Simpson and his donkey. [00:10:32] Speaker C: Yeah. And it carried into the beach so they can have the sea water. [00:10:41] Speaker D: Yeah, yeah. [00:10:42] Speaker E: There's a lot of stories with Simpson and his donkeys are very famous stories. And when we. [00:10:49] Speaker C: Eventually he was helping, like, he was like, like the donkey was actually very. [00:11:00] Speaker E: What was it? [00:11:02] Speaker C: Young. But Simpson was helping them. Member not on the donkey, just like holding his hand and walking him to the beach with his donkey. [00:11:14] Speaker E: Yeah, absolutely. And that, you know, there's a lot of other stories with what Simpson and his donkey did during that war. And that's just some of what you've learned about, isn't that right? Yeah. And so. And you also heard that there were quite a number of animals that help. Were a part of the war and helping the war. But that was just a really famous story. [00:11:44] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:11:45] Speaker B: And like in the past, elephants were used. Elephants and pigs were used. [00:11:53] Speaker E: Oh, I didn't know about that. [00:11:55] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:11:55] Speaker E: Oh, did you learn about that one today? [00:11:58] Speaker D: No. [00:12:00] Speaker E: And that's another one I'm, I'm gonna go looking up. [00:12:04] Speaker B: Yeah, yeah. [00:12:06] Speaker E: Too cool. Yeah. And it's, it's good to look back on these stories, isn't it? [00:12:13] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:12:14] Speaker E: Well, shall we head to a song? [00:12:16] Speaker B: We shall. This is Viva La Vida by Coldplay. [00:12:23] Speaker A: The best music from the 60s to today. IPL radio. [00:12:29] Speaker B: That was Wake Me up by Avicii. And this is the family show on IPL Radio. If you're just joining us, my name is Toby. [00:12:40] Speaker E: And I'm Amy. [00:12:41] Speaker C: And I'm Ann. [00:12:42] Speaker E: And today we are talking about ANZAC Day is our main topic. And just before we were talking about some of the history, a little bit of the history behind it. It's definitely something that I think is important to revisit, especially on ANZAC Day and looking a little bit behind the scenes of why do we celebrate it? And. But now we're going to jump into some ways that we can celebrate it. [00:13:13] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:13:13] Speaker E: So we, we did kind of touch on that before the songs, but we. So we talked about making ANZAC cookies. [00:13:24] Speaker D: Yep. [00:13:24] Speaker E: And playing. [00:13:27] Speaker B: Two up. [00:13:28] Speaker E: Absolutely. But as a chance and data record keeping way that we. We play to up. [00:13:35] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:13:36] Speaker B: And then also putting some like a special type of music. [00:13:41] Speaker E: The. The bugle. The last post. [00:13:43] Speaker D: Yep. Yep. [00:13:44] Speaker B: And then have a minute of silence. And it's just like Remembrance Day. Like, have a minute of silence and remember. [00:13:54] Speaker E: I don't know if we actually have a minute of silence on Anzac Day. I know, I know. We do the marches so you can go into the city and you can see the Defense Force personnel marching through the city on. On Friday. And then what else can you do? There's also dawn services. [00:14:23] Speaker B: What's dawn? [00:14:25] Speaker E: So that. Oh, well, that's when they do the. The minute of silence. They. So before the sun rises. They kind of do it as the sun rises. They. They play the bugle. I've never been to a dawn service. I guess it's because I don't like the cold. But if you guys are. [00:14:45] Speaker B: We can't even get you into the water at the beach. No. [00:14:49] Speaker E: And I like the beach, but I think it's something that's worthwhile doing at least one year. Like if we get up early, head to a dawn service, which they'll be all over. Over the country. And I think there's probably one that's down in Rockingham. [00:15:07] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:15:08] Speaker E: That we could head to. And then they have them. Yeah. All over the place. And it's just that. That. [00:15:18] Speaker B: Is there gonna be. It is. It is a dawn service. [00:15:20] Speaker E: Like a. [00:15:21] Speaker B: Like a bunch of people gather together and they play the bugle. [00:15:26] Speaker E: Yeah, yeah, yeah. [00:15:28] Speaker B: And so it's like a building, like a library or something like that. [00:15:31] Speaker E: It's outdoors. Yeah, yeah. So they're all held outdoors and they're at memorial services. So I was looking. Looking at a documentary and I thought, oh, it's probably not quite appropriate for you guys on the ABC Iview app. So I always. When we're doing one of these topics, I go to ABC if you first and see if there's any documentaries that we can watch. So there is a good documentary. It's about an hour long and it look. Talks about how the memorial services. You don't realize that they're all over the place. [00:16:17] Speaker B: What if the memorial places were like battlegrounds. [00:16:22] Speaker E: That they could be representation, like representative of some. Something to do with the wars. But a lot of the wars that we commemorate are more offshore. Yeah, yeah. The big one was in Gallipoli that we. We reflect on and talk about. [00:16:47] Speaker D: Yeah, yeah. [00:16:48] Speaker B: West Gallipoli. [00:16:51] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:16:52] Speaker E: Next question. Your teacher needs to do her research. Let's look that up. And while you guys tell me, what else do you think that we could do to reflect on Anzac Day and sort of commemorate. It's not celebrating. It's commemorating. It's Reflecting on our history. And what other ways can we do that? I'm not sure. You're not sure? [00:17:30] Speaker B: I don't have any questions in mind. Except for where's Gallipoli? [00:17:37] Speaker E: Where is Gallipoli? Not sure. [00:17:44] Speaker C: Yeah. [00:17:45] Speaker E: Turkey. It's in the European part of Turkey. I knew that. No, madam. Country. Yeah. So it's in Turkey. [00:18:04] Speaker B: Nice. [00:18:05] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:18:05] Speaker C: I can eat turkey, Right? [00:18:09] Speaker E: Never had turkey, madam. So other ways that we can commemorate it. Let me think. We can, as children, we can look at doing some crafts and even as adults as well. [00:18:26] Speaker B: You can do crafts? [00:18:27] Speaker E: Yeah, absolutely. [00:18:28] Speaker B: You can. And you can, like, paint, like poppies and stuff like that? [00:18:33] Speaker E: Yep, absolutely. And wear a poppy and go to the marches, the services, read books. We've got a few books about Anzac Day. Documentaries, appropriate for your age, Documentaries you can watch. So just making sure that you know what's going on and know about it is. Is quite important. [00:18:57] Speaker D: Yeah. [00:18:58] Speaker E: Yeah. [00:19:00] Speaker D: All right. [00:19:01] Speaker E: Shall we head to a song? [00:19:02] Speaker D: We shall. [00:19:03] Speaker B: This is you Make My Dreams by Dahl hall and John Oates. [00:19:10] Speaker A: The best music from the 60s to today. IPL radio.

And that is it for our show today. [00:19:27] Speaker E: How quickly did today's show go past? [00:19:30] Speaker D: I know. [00:19:31] Speaker E: I mean, one minute we're in here and then the next it's over. We didn't even get to our regular segments today. [00:19:37] Speaker D: Yeah.
