Speaker 1 (00:00):
Gold. Hello, it's Jonesy and Amanda driving you home. Let
me ask you this question. You have a daughter. Yes,
I do. Would you spend $ 600, 000 to buy her a falcon?
What sort? Has it got registration? It's got feathers. That's
a bird falcon, not a ford falcon. It's a bird falcon.
This is a father in Abu Dhabi who spent... Oh,
(00:22):
he's a rich Arab. He's got extra money. Yeah, but still...
That's glove box change to him. It's a pure, a rare,
pure white Gyre, G-Y-R falcon sold for Australian, $ 600, 000, making
it this year's most expensive falcon sale. They have pet
falcons over there. Yeah. And they have the big falcon sales.
(00:43):
Excuse me. I'm swearing, isn't it? And apparently if you
fly at certain times, you can sit next to one. Yeah,
on the plane. People book seats for their falcons. That's
how good they're doing. The falcons are sitting on the plane.
And it's getting a special meal and you're stuck down
the back. Imagine there's an albatross flying next to the plane,
looks in and sees the falcon. Hang on. Hang on
(01:06):
a minute. Lazy, lazy, lazy. What's going on here? It's
like that time I was flying with a Beyond 2000
trip in South America and I was brushing a fly
off my meal. I thought, I'm on a plane. How
did a fly get in here? It must have been
one of the less salubrious airlines. You must get out
and think, oh, my God, no wonder I'm exhausted. I've
crossed continents. Well, so that's a lot to spend, I
(01:26):
would think. How much? 600,000. Yep. It's rare white feathers
helped make the bird highly valuable. And he's there with
his daughter and she comes up and goes, thank you
very much. What about this? Right. This is what Australians
are spending money on, the $ 800 Dyson toothbrush. It's an
AI toothbrush with a camera in it. Oh. Yeah. Why? Well,
(01:49):
this is what they're calling it, a complete oral care
routine in one toothbrush. Isn't that what a toothbrush is?
It's got a little camera in it that apparently, or
it's jet washers, liquid flossing, mouthwash, blah, blah, blah. All that?
But it gives you feedback on how you're cleaning your teeth.
It's like having your mum standing over your shoulder. Or Mrs. Marsh.
(02:12):
It does get in. I don't know. We're going to
have cameras in the toilet paper next to tell you
how your health is. We don't want that. What about this?
If you've got too much money, you might be interested
in this. This is Hermes has released a set of
three band-aids for $ 749. They look like they're kind of leather.
(02:32):
They've got the Hermes label on them. Yep. Three Band-Aids
for $ 749. Can you reuse them? I don't think so.
That's what they used to do in World War I. Well, yeah,
I think that. And the diggers would take it on
the turn. I've got crotch rot. Give me the Hermes. No,
I think this is just if you've had a scratch
(02:54):
from a blood diamond. I think that's what happens.
