It's something from China and it's supposed to be the
new slimming technique, right?

Speaker 2 (01:46):
Can I get it from Timu?

Speaker 3 (01:47):
Like my ear endoscope, we had some comments about that yesterday.
Somebody said, do not do this, this is incredibly dangerous.

Speaker 4 (01:57):
YEP, it's obviously taken your hearing out.

Speaker 5 (02:01):
I've been listening. I've been listening to Radio Beijing since

Speaker 3 (02:33):
Oh no oh, it's five times five, not five plus five.

Speaker 2 (02:39):
Five times five, Anthony.

Speaker 4 (02:42):
Oh, crap indeed, but there's no shame. Crap happens and
we know it.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
It was Tz. It was Tesz. Instagram will make his return.

Speaker 5 (02:50):
Also the fast five and let's get stuck into something
to get the afternoon underway. Ryan, why don't you put
on Survivor? I have the Tiger. Everyone loves that. Jonesy
Demander's jam Nation on Gold jam Nation Gold with Jonesy
Demander across Australia jam.

Speaker 4 (03:07):
Nation Hello over the holidays.

Speaker 3 (03:12):
As I said a few days ago, I had my
eyebrows tattooed. I've now got more tattoos than you do.

Speaker 5 (03:17):
I thought I'd done something wrong because my wife she
did her eyebrows as well, and I came out and said.

Speaker 2 (03:23):
What's happened? What's happened? Because they look expressive.

Speaker 4 (03:28):
I'm careful, now, careful bread.

Speaker 2 (03:30):
This is like diffusing a boy that.

Speaker 4 (03:31):
Time I went home and had a spraytown and my
husband said, buller.

Speaker 3 (03:38):
But lots of people over there Christmas breaks may have
had some beauty tweaks here and there. There's a new
well you can do this anytime. This one that I've
found from China. But let's just listen, let's just have
a chat about some of the more recent beauty. I
guess the trends that are going around. We had, remember
last year we had the mercan This was the Kardashian company.

(04:01):
It was underpants, a G string that had.

Speaker 4 (04:03):
Hair on it. What about snail musin?

Speaker 3 (04:09):
That's snail secretions that people are rubbing onto their faces
for glow, hydration and repair. Slows you down? You want
to live in the letterbox? Just chomped down on the
old male.

Speaker 2 (04:21):
A sorcer of beer. Can you not mention the word secrete?

Speaker 3 (04:25):
All right? How about period blood fag? Do I teeth filing?
People who are filing their teeth at home with nail files.
That's got to be bad for you. But how about
this one? It's a fake navel tattoo. It's not about
joining the navy. The trend of the fake belly button

(04:46):
tattoo has gained populated. It's a it's a fake belly button.
It's not a tattoo, it's a sticker. This is a
huge in China. This trend has over thirty five million
views on Insta or TikTok. Theo is it designed to
create the illusion of a longer leg and a slimmer stomach.
Because what you do, so hold on to your stomach, now, Brendan,

(05:08):
I'll wait for you to grow to stack it. So
where your pants sit is kind of for most of us.
Breaks up a little roll and there's a roll underneath.
You've got a substantialsion. You're breathing in a lot and
now breathe out, Brendan. What this does, though, is you
tuck your actual navel into your pants. Tuck your navel

(05:31):
into your pants below the belt line. And because the
bit that slimmest on your torso apparently is above your
actual navel, because around your navel you might have some
stomach fat. So what this does is you put this
above your navel. So you tuck your actual gut into
your pants and you put this fake navel above that.

(05:51):
And so what that does, it's creates an illusion of
a longer leg, a slimmer stomach, often used in conjunction
with high waisted pants. Okay, here's a picture. Let me
show you a picture. I've got one on my phone.

Speaker 2 (06:04):
I've always had no phones in the studio.

Speaker 3 (06:07):
So that's a fake stick on navel that her navel
is actually way under Be.

Speaker 5 (06:13):
Good for that, Sam Smith, he wears the pants high
does he he wears.

Speaker 3 (06:17):
So you wear the high pants. But this gives you
an illusion that you're wearing low pants.

Speaker 2 (06:22):
It's like a bond villain with a superfluous nipple.

Speaker 5 (06:25):
Remember that he was superfluous belly button.

Speaker 3 (06:28):
So if you go home with someone and get undressed,
be like unflating a zodiac.

Speaker 4 (06:33):
And why do you have two navels?

Speaker 3 (06:36):
And if you want to put it onto your chin,
people think of I'd extreme face lit.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
That's a nice bow tie.

Speaker 4 (06:46):
Come to me for all the details.

Speaker 2 (06:48):
Available from Timu on Gold podcast. What's that? Mikey? You
want to make cake? Gold?

Speaker 5 (06:59):
But Jones matter across Australia, it is a jam nation.
Everything seem to be going along very swimmingly at the moment.
Everything is coming to plan. It's been good, happy for
you know.

Speaker 2 (07:09):
I've been watching I've been watching that community TV show.

Speaker 3 (07:12):
How old is that show? I know I've watched about
a million of those episodes a.

Speaker 4 (07:16):
Long time ago.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
It came out in two thousand and nine and wrapped
up in twenty thirteen.

Speaker 4 (07:19):
Have you gone back to community school yourself?

Speaker 2 (07:21):
You know the reason?

Speaker 6 (07:21):
Why?

Speaker 5 (07:22):
Did you go to a tafe many years ago and
did fine arts and failed that dismally?

Speaker 2 (07:27):
Did very well at life drawing though, because that was it?

Speaker 4 (07:31):
What was the story you have told me?

Speaker 3 (07:33):
Where you were drawing some girl who a woman who's
a paid model.

Speaker 2 (07:39):
Life models that came in, Yeah, that's right and.

Speaker 4 (07:41):
Log behind you to have a look at how you
were drawing.

Speaker 5 (07:44):
You'd get old ladies, you'd get old alcoholics, you know,
people that would come along and they get ten dollars an.

Speaker 2 (07:51):
Hour, which is pretty good back in the day.

Speaker 5 (07:52):
And they stripped all that year off and stand in
front of the class naked, mortify them.

Speaker 2 (07:57):
We might do it. They didn't seem to mind.

Speaker 6 (07:59):
Now.

Speaker 5 (08:00):
I was one lady that was quite attractive, and she
would come along and as the models would often do,
have a look at your work when you've you know,
as you got me.

Speaker 4 (08:09):
Through and what does she say when she was yours.

Speaker 2 (08:11):
Jeers, I should go, I should buy a razor. That's
what she said. What did you what's the eighties?

Speaker 6 (08:18):
Then?

Speaker 4 (08:19):
What did you focus on?

Speaker 2 (08:20):
I know I hadn't focused on anything.

Speaker 4 (08:22):
I was just on her mustache.

Speaker 2 (08:24):
I'll go and do you want to have a look
at some of my drawings?

Speaker 7 (08:26):
No?

Speaker 4 (08:27):
Thank you for etchings anyway.

Speaker 5 (08:29):
Community, I'm watching a reason I'm watching Community because of
all these stories about Chevy Chase's new documentary that's coming out.

Speaker 2 (08:35):
I'm chevy Chasing, You're not. My algorithm has this happened
to you?

Speaker 5 (08:39):
Is constantly popping up of how much an ahole Chevy
Chase is.

Speaker 4 (08:43):
My son's a huge fan, ma ol. The son's a
huge fan of Community.

Speaker 3 (08:45):
And so I've watched a number of those episodes and
he's notoriously cranky in the show, but the stories were
had big drug and alcohol problems in many of the
years earlier on Saturday Night Live and all those years,
but notoriously horrible to work with.

Speaker 5 (08:59):
Yeah, so I've been watching Community just to see where
that goes wrong. So he leaves at in season four,
so I'm up to season four now, and he was
complaining that they were making his character be more racist
and more homophobic and more everything that he.

Speaker 2 (09:16):
Wasn't And apparently apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

Speaker 3 (09:19):
Wasn't he being interviewed for this documentary? And he said
to the journalists, you wouldn't understand that because you're not
smart enough.

Speaker 2 (09:24):
And he said, oh, can you readit that out?

Speaker 4 (09:25):
He's so rude.

Speaker 2 (09:26):
He looks like a bit of a debut. Absolutely, But nonetheless,
I've got a love for community.

Speaker 4 (09:30):
Yeah, it's a great show. You're waiting for the life

Someone said an endoscope is for your end but I
thought an endoscope was the technology.

Speaker 2 (17:20):
That's what it's called.

Speaker 4 (17:21):
Well, it was a camera with a light that went
into your ear.

very dangerous, Jonesy, you could pierce your ear drum. A
clinical audiologist tells us not to stick anything in your ears.

(18:45):
Please stop, I'm begging you. That's from misspunk Bubble.

Speaker 2 (18:50):
Miss spunk Budder.

Speaker 4 (18:51):
There's one.

Speaker 5 (18:52):
I'm not a fool. I'm not going to shove it
right into me. Dr That's why you have the camera.
You can see how far you've got.

Speaker 3 (18:56):
Yeah, like those cartoons, we see it come behind your
eyes and out the other side.

Speaker 4 (19:00):
What about this one?

Speaker 3 (19:00):
Still waiting for a Manda to put the period pain
simulator on Jonesy Cowby.

Speaker 2 (19:05):
We'll leave that for Willem Woody.

Speaker 3 (19:06):
Okay, So that sounds like that of Kevin saying how
can I use that?

Speaker 2 (19:11):
That's something they can deal with. What do you think
is a reasonable price for flowers for a wedding? I'm
going to ask you that question after wear.

Speaker 5 (19:18):
Rick Roll jams gold with Jonesy Demander across Australia. Jam Nation,
if I asked you a question, what would you think
wedding flowers for your daughter's wedding?

Speaker 2 (19:31):
What would you expect to pay?

Speaker 5 (19:32):
I'm going to ask firstly, jam I Raight, a studio producer, Ryan, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (19:37):
I reckon I three hundred dollars for the whole wedding,
not just the bride's bouquet, the whole wedding. It's it's tables, Okay, Look, Brian,
it's stuff that might go at the end of the pews.

Speaker 5 (19:51):
Yeah, I'm on the lapel's room. Best man, father bride. Okay,
so three hundred bucks, that's probably a bit.

Speaker 2 (20:00):
Ah, I'm thinking two. No, I would think thousand, two
thousand dollars. No, I'm thinking two thousand dollars.

Speaker 4 (20:10):
Ask you, I would say, what are you going to say?

Speaker 3 (20:12):
Well, it's been long time since I was married. I
mean I am married now a lot of times.

Speaker 2 (20:16):
What flowers did you have?

Speaker 3 (20:18):
I had a big bouquet, beautiful bouquet. I have no
idea how much that cost? I will say, forty grand?

Speaker 2 (20:28):
What are you? Elton John? Forty grand?

Speaker 3 (20:31):
How much are they? How much have you been quoted?
Is that more than you've been quoted? I haven't been
to a wedding for a long time, Pas, forty grand?
Have gone too high? Incredibly, have I rericked your whole thing?
Because I've gone too high?

Speaker 2 (20:44):
Every time you do this, you rule.

Speaker 4 (20:46):
How much have you been quoted?

Speaker 2 (20:47):
Eight thousand bucks, eight thousand? Well, you're world, that's reasonable.
That's like Ryan eight.

Speaker 3 (20:53):
Thousand, eight thousand. I think that's very reasonable. No, that
that's flowers they Brendan. Let's just let's establish a few
things here. It's your daughter's wedding. You have one daughter,
She's marrying a guy you love very much. This is
a very very happy occasion. You are notoriously tight, and

(21:16):
I'm sorry you are you are?

Speaker 2 (21:20):
You are?

Speaker 4 (21:20):
No, no, no, no one.

Speaker 3 (21:24):
You are you going through every single wedd to my
wedding item and saying that's too expect.

Speaker 5 (21:28):
Just when she when my wife was talking to my
daughter and they said eight thousand dollars and I said, right,
what are you?

Speaker 2 (21:36):
You know afore mentioned what are you? Sarah Ferguson slash
Elton John Sarah Ferguson. Yeah, she spends a fortune on flowers.
She can't afford that. I'll tell you right now. So okay,
so you're thinking that's reasonable.

Speaker 4 (21:47):
I think it's reasonable. But I don't know.

Speaker 2 (21:50):
I don't know. I'm a guy. I don't care.

Speaker 4 (21:52):
But this is what you see.

Speaker 2 (21:53):
You do care A questioning my princess.

Speaker 4 (21:56):
So why my princess, princess? That's too expensive? Princes prince.

Speaker 2 (22:00):
We worked with own.

Speaker 3 (22:02):
We worked with a woman who we both think is brilliant.
We love her very much. Her mother was getting married
not long before this person was getting married, and her mother,
who has a substantial amount of money, went to the
church where she was going to get married. Remember this,
the night before the wedding, cut flowers in the garden
to do her bridal beauquet and to.

Speaker 4 (22:23):
Put flowers on the her own flowers. She got her
own flowers from the church where she was getting married.

Speaker 2 (22:28):
The next thing she was she wasn't in the grave.

Speaker 3 (22:30):
But she went in under darkness and cut the flowers
herself at the church.

Speaker 5 (22:35):
Okay, so I don't want anyonewer, I might just vise,
are the get some opinions on the somewhere somewhere between
three thousand and forty thousand dollars but not just that
A wedding.

Speaker 2 (22:44):
Game show with Larry MDA.

Speaker 3 (22:46):
Weddings are notoriously expensive. I had a friend who got
married number of years ago, and she wanted to book
a car and they said yes, and then the certain price.
When they found out it was a wedding, they said,
oh no, it's going to be more than that on
this your special day. And so that became the catch
cry for every thing on this your special day, we
jack it up.

Speaker 5 (23:03):
A very famous radio broadcaster once said Kelly wore a
mask exactly that Kelly had the decency to wear a
mask when he was robin people.

Speaker 3 (23:13):
Yeah, so I a Deborlle Finesse once telling me that
she was. This is before she married Hugh Jackman. She
said that one of the things that they've been they
were going to get for their wedding table, was you
time it? So there is pew pay and under the
lights at the wedding they emerge as butterflies. I don't
know how much she paid.

Speaker 2 (23:33):
Yeah she's paying.

Speaker 3 (23:35):
I think she's saying, well that somebody which you want
to time it. You don't want some writhing kind of
pew pay all over the table.

Speaker 2 (23:43):
These are delicious, Thank you wants pew pay on the tip?

Speaker 3 (23:48):
So why don't we asked the question, what was the
surprising thing for you at the wedding?

Speaker 4 (23:52):
Is this something that you went, oh my god? Why
is that small thing so much?

Speaker 5 (23:56):
The travel drum will be for this thirteen fifty five
twenty two.

Speaker 2 (24:00):
What have gone back in time?

Speaker 6 (24:01):
Right?

Speaker 5 (24:02):
Tribal drum and wore.

Speaker 4 (24:06):
A must cranky old man to the four.

Speaker 5 (24:09):
Thirteen fifty five twenty two. We would love to hear
from you. Your call's coming up on gold j jam
Nations on Gold with Jonesy Demander across Australia. This is
jam Nation and the tribal drama has been beating my
daughter as getting married, and I'm very excited about her
getting married.

Speaker 4 (24:27):
I'm excited. I'm going to be there.

Speaker 2 (24:29):
I love her, I love her more potential son in law.

Speaker 5 (24:33):
In fact, I did say to him, if something happened,
I said to the bay of room, I said, if
something happened, can.

Speaker 2 (24:38):
We still hang out? Can I still hang out with Michael?
Because I really like him. He likes the beer. I like,
he's not irritating.

Speaker 3 (24:45):
Of course he was, like, he's pretending all that funny.

Speaker 2 (24:48):
You're potential far you're a secret handshake. That's not like secred.
We go up and go big dog. We like doing
the big handshake.

Speaker 4 (24:54):
Be douse, Romany hate that Romany likes big dog.

Speaker 2 (24:58):
So she's getting married. This is all happening in March.

Speaker 4 (25:01):
Yes, you're a little jealous because you want to marry her.

Speaker 2 (25:03):
I wouldn't marry him. I would marry him.

Speaker 4 (25:06):
But your typical Jonesy style.

Speaker 3 (25:08):
You're saying how expensive things are, and a wedding is expensive.

Speaker 4 (25:12):
Of course it is.

Speaker 2 (25:15):
I'm not made of money.

Speaker 4 (25:16):
No, but it's your daughter's wedding.

Speaker 2 (25:19):
Yes, but I have a feeling as well well.

Speaker 4 (25:21):
Everyone gets ripped off at a wedding. Of course they do.
They go to charge more because they're going to charge
more for a week.

Speaker 5 (25:26):
As I going to Barley and getting ripped off, Why
why does that happen to happen?

Speaker 2 (25:29):
I don't get ripped off in Bali.

Speaker 3 (25:32):
Well why don't you then have her wedding in Ballei?
And the best thing about this is I didn't get
ripped off.

Speaker 2 (25:38):
You don't understand. I just feel we were talking about
the flowers for the wedding. I just jem I right
said how much? Did you say? Three hundred dollars, which
is a bit low. I had a figure.

Speaker 4 (25:52):
I thought maybe forty grand I just don't know.

Speaker 5 (25:55):
I don't know, And I said, thank you, Eldon. I
went with eight thousand dollars, which seems reasonable. Your what
was the actual quote you were given eight thousand dollars? Well,
you said you thought that was too much. That's the
way too is compared to yours. I'd rather be eight
thousand dollars.

Speaker 2 (26:08):
Actually, has she a been on the phone to you?

Speaker 4 (26:11):
No?

Speaker 5 (26:13):
No, the tribal drama is beating. At least ned Kelly
wore a mask. The wedding edition Kelly were a mask.

Speaker 3 (26:20):
What was the thing at the wedding that you were
surprised costs so much?

Speaker 2 (26:24):
Craig Is you want to tell that, Craig, I held
the gallant.

Speaker 4 (26:27):
Good which bit surprised you?

Speaker 2 (26:28):
Craig.

Speaker 7 (26:32):
We went through all the negotiation. We found out that
we had to play ninety five dollars ahead to feed
every one of the staff members that worked at the reception,
saying about twenty of them.

Speaker 3 (26:44):
Well had to feed them as well, ninety five dollars ahead.

Speaker 7 (26:48):
Yet the same price as they cost to feed all
my guests. No, not for all the stuff. Yes, it
was we were shocked.

Speaker 3 (26:56):
Sort of you asking them to come and do it
somewhere so remote that they can't get anything to eat.

Speaker 4 (27:03):
I find that quite extraordinary.

Speaker 7 (27:05):
Yeah, no, it was only like a won't name and
shutting the place. They did a good job, but yeah,
we were shocked, like, youve got to feed every staff
member that's evolved.

Speaker 4 (27:15):
And how many did you have any staff members? Did
you say?

Speaker 7 (27:18):
Well, they said there was about twenty.

Speaker 4 (27:20):
So twenty times one hundred.

Speaker 2 (27:23):
Yeah, that's a lot.

Speaker 5 (27:24):
You know, when I was a DJ is to do
a bit of weddings and stuff like that, I remember
one particular wedding. I bought my mate Kassa along as
my sidekick, and he was tucking into the chicken Kiev
and the lady that was running the place said, well,
we haven't budgeted for him, so I had to share
half of the chicken Kiev because he was indeed eating much.

Speaker 4 (27:45):
But they budgeted for you. Yeah, and you would have
had the munchies big time.

Speaker 2 (27:49):
Okay, that's the eighties.

Speaker 3 (27:52):
I used to partake it a bit of a Hello, Susie, how.

Speaker 2 (27:55):
Are you hi? Hi jesse Himan, Susie?

Speaker 4 (27:58):
What costs so much?

Speaker 6 (28:00):
I've got married forty five years ago?

Speaker 2 (28:02):
So do the mass?

Speaker 6 (28:03):
So within an hour of our reception, our eighteen dollar
cake was empty.

Speaker 2 (28:09):
Right, Well, so how much do you get almost sized keg?

Speaker 5 (28:12):
You probably get, yes, eusy about eighty schooners out of
a keg.

Speaker 4 (28:17):
And how many guests did you have and twenty?

Speaker 3 (28:21):
So Brendan, you do the mass for me on that.
Well that's pretty cheap actually, but not every guest is
going to drink beer.

Speaker 2 (28:28):
Yeah, that's one beer. What sort of cheap o wedding
is off?

Speaker 4 (28:30):
Come on, Brendan, you're going.

Speaker 2 (28:32):
To put on about five cakes? If you're putting a
wedding on. Sorry, Susie.

Speaker 3 (28:39):
Susie didn't phone up to be abusing.

Speaker 2 (28:42):
I'm just asking me to do a lot.

Speaker 3 (28:43):
You wouldn't go to that wedding. Now, every time you
get invited, how much beer with it will be?

Speaker 5 (28:49):
There's got to be enough beer. I'll tell you right now,
there'll be plenty of beer. I'd rather spend eight grand.

Speaker 2 (28:53):
On the bill. Well, you know, that's that's for another time.

Speaker 4 (28:56):
Thank you, Susie.

Speaker 2 (28:57):
Kelly has joined us.

Speaker 4 (28:58):
By Kelly, what was expensive?

Speaker 6 (29:00):
Oh? Like yeah, definitely the food guys. And by the way,
I think he's the most gorgeous couple.

Speaker 3 (29:06):
Oh are you sweet? We're not an actual couple. We
aren't married to each other, just so you know.

Speaker 6 (29:10):
Yeah, Well, I wish I'm getting married in sixteen days.
First my wife, I'm forty seven years old, and I
am absolutely doing myself. Yes, but found the man in
my dream finally. And basically, I think tulips love. I
think really tulips are just dainty, elegant and there's a

(29:33):
pureeness about them. And also me and my wife, my wife,
me and my husband have a bit of a I thinks.

Speaker 7 (29:44):
We've got we've got it.

Speaker 2 (29:45):
We've got character, tiny Tim.

Speaker 5 (29:48):
You don't need to bring him out again, Kelly, bud
I will say this, what are your tulips costing?

Speaker 4 (29:52):
Here?

Speaker 6 (29:54):
They're costing seven grand?

Speaker 4 (29:55):
Yes, seven c how many?

Speaker 9 (29:58):
Like?

Speaker 4 (29:58):
That's just for your boat?

Speaker 6 (30:00):
Hey, no, no, we're making it a theme.

Speaker 2 (30:06):
Yeah, so that's the whole. That's the whole seven thousand
dollars for the whole wedding.

Speaker 6 (30:10):
Well no, no, no, that's just the flowers, all right,
the whole wedding and the food that's another you know,
six six thousand dollars and the rest, so quite.

Speaker 3 (30:21):
Expense as an older bride, Kelly, you're paying for this yourself?

Speaker 4 (30:25):
I'm assuming yes we are.

Speaker 3 (30:28):
Yeah, come on, that's when you start to go well
that is except have a listened to this though, Kelly.

Speaker 5 (30:33):
The flowers are more expensive than the food. What you
got race horses coming?

Speaker 2 (30:37):
But the wedding.

Speaker 6 (30:39):
I think so.

Speaker 2 (30:42):
Does what's you watch?

Speaker 5 (30:43):
Your husband to be's name Briant.

Speaker 6 (30:49):
He doesn't like to be seen on TV or on radio.

Speaker 3 (30:52):
We'll keep Brian quiet. But you said that you're pulling yourself.
I hope that that would just be excitement. I know
that you just.

Speaker 4 (30:59):
I can't wait it's so exciting.

Speaker 2 (31:01):
Coratulation for you, good luck.

Speaker 7 (31:04):
Thank you, thank you so much.

Speaker 6 (31:05):
It was lovely to seek you guys hanging to sweek
you guys.

Speaker 4 (31:08):
Aren't you lovely? Thank you? Kelly.

Speaker 2 (31:11):
Well, well should we mind this further?

Speaker 4 (31:13):
Let's do it for the winning.

Speaker 5 (31:14):
I like Amanda sam Nation podcast God with Jersey Amanda
across Australia.

Speaker 2 (31:21):
It's gam Nation. If you've just joined us, good afternoon.

Speaker 5 (31:25):
My daughter is getting married and I'm excited to months
and I'm happy to you know, chip In chep.

Speaker 4 (31:32):
In your father of the bride.

Speaker 2 (31:35):
I'm happy. I'm like, largely I'm paying for this thing.
You should be Sometimes I.

Speaker 5 (31:41):
Just feel that do you want flowers now? So the
flower bill came through and I thought it was kind
of excessive at eight thousand dollars.

Speaker 2 (31:54):
Jim y Rye, you came in at I said it
should cost three hundred dollars. Three hundred dollars is a
little low, but I like it's reasonable.

Speaker 3 (32:04):
Well, I haven't. I don't know how much these things cost.
I'm guessing she's getting married in a beautiful location. I'm
thinking it's going to be expensive. Because you were going
on about how expensive it was I thought it might
have been forty grand.

Speaker 2 (32:17):
It just shows the pay scale between you and me,
doesn't it.

Speaker 4 (32:19):
No, No, I just shows that.

Speaker 3 (32:22):
Well, the quote of eight thousand, I think is quite
reasonable away.

Speaker 5 (32:25):
From all of that, because we just had Kelly on before.
She's getting married to Brian in fourteen days. Her tulips
are costing seven thousand dollars. Yeah, so maybe I'm out
of touch. He I'm happy to admit that. But I
got to tell you the wedding people, the people that
run the wedding business.

Speaker 2 (32:42):
You know, they're a bit that they can about a
mayo on the price.

Speaker 3 (32:46):
Well, what did you expect, Brendan, Unless you're going to
do it all yourself in your own backyard, what did
you expect?

Speaker 2 (32:52):
Which I would be happy to do. Yeah, I've got
a good backyard.

Speaker 4 (32:54):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (32:55):
The tribal drama is beating four at a musk.

Speaker 3 (33:00):
Hello, Meredith, what did you find expensive at the wedding?

Speaker 4 (33:04):
Hi joined the and Amanda.

Speaker 9 (33:07):
Photography and videos.

Speaker 8 (33:10):
You're thinking thousands, tens of thousands, and the photos end
up living in the box under your bed and you
drag them out occasionally just for your kids to have
a bit of a laugh at that's true.

Speaker 3 (33:24):
My wedding photos. I've been married over thirty years. My
wedding photos are still exactly that. Some of them I
didn't even get developed. Other ones are still stuck together.
I got prints and they're under the house. I'm not
sentimental with stuff like that.

Speaker 2 (33:39):
Who watches the wedding video while my wife does? She
puts it in reverse, seats herself.

Speaker 5 (33:43):
Walking out of the church, they're finally smiling, happy, Thank you.

Speaker 2 (33:48):
Bere has joined us hi erin.

Speaker 4 (33:50):
What's so expensive?

Speaker 7 (33:52):
Hi, guys, we are paying three thousand dollars for.

Speaker 6 (33:55):
Our church, even though it's supposed to be.

Speaker 9 (33:57):
A free sacrament.

Speaker 7 (33:59):
And on top of that we have to.

Speaker 2 (34:00):
Bring our own priest by priest.

Speaker 4 (34:04):
Wow, So what you're paying for is just the real estate. Really,
you're the building.

Speaker 9 (34:08):
To do it in exactly exactly, and that's.

Speaker 4 (34:11):
The church, not the reception. So that's just the church.

Speaker 3 (34:15):
Yeah, just an hour, an hour, three thousand dollars and
b yo, priest.

Speaker 2 (34:20):
We shuld run out time zone for that.

Speaker 4 (34:22):
How much does the priest cost?

Speaker 7 (34:24):
Oh, it's a donation.

Speaker 4 (34:26):
You can choose.

Speaker 3 (34:27):
If it was Jonesy, Look mate, here you go, Pard,
he's a bottle of He's a long neck of.

Speaker 2 (34:33):
Beer stones green ginger wine.

Speaker 4 (34:38):
Thank you eron that.

Speaker 2 (34:39):
In the sacristy, Leah has joined us.

Speaker 9 (34:41):
Hello Leah, Hey, you guys here, you're.

Speaker 7 (34:44):
Going very well.

Speaker 4 (34:45):
Do you all find this expensive? Well?

Speaker 9 (34:49):
Actually, I'm a florist by tray, so I know exactly
how much you cost, not necessarily and there's a lot
of work that goes into the flowers.

Speaker 3 (35:01):
What a lot of people don't.

Speaker 7 (35:02):
Realize it's the labor.

Speaker 9 (35:04):
Okay, it's very labor intensive, so a good not to
let any six way, but a good third of your.

Speaker 7 (35:11):
Cost is labor.

Speaker 9 (35:13):
It be easily a good ten to thirty hours of
man labor in a wedding, depending on how how big
a wedding.

Speaker 3 (35:21):
You're having with your flowers, how many guests you know,
how many guests at the wedding.

Speaker 2 (35:25):
Is like one hundred people?

Speaker 6 (35:26):
There one hundred people, that's you know, ten to fifteen tables.

Speaker 9 (35:32):
You know, if you know, it depends what you know.
If you're all going the seasonal flowers, then you're importing them.

Speaker 7 (35:39):
What's your cost for money?

Speaker 2 (35:41):
What's a cheap flower for March lee? What's on special at.

Speaker 9 (35:49):
March seasonal flower isn't?

Speaker 7 (35:52):
Depending on your colors.

Speaker 9 (35:53):
But like that other lovely lady who's got trulips, some
much truelops aren't growing now.

Speaker 7 (35:57):
They're probably being imported and they've probably.

Speaker 9 (36:00):
Dutch ships and they're being imported from Holland. So obviously
importing costs cost you know, twice a week.

Speaker 2 (36:07):
You're not involved in this wedding in any way.

Speaker 3 (36:09):
By the way, you could just get some carnations at
the servo.

Speaker 2 (36:15):
Can we get some carnations from the survey?

Speaker 9 (36:17):
Please don't if you want them, you need them to
at least survive the day. But yeah, a lot of
industries I've got married myself like they do. They put
a premium on set just because it's the wedding, and
people think that florists do the same, but we're one
of the ones that we don't. It's basically it's the
cost of the flowers and what we need to make

(36:37):
a little bit of money and labor. You think of
like a risk corsage. You think, you know, just a
few flowers. Each one of those flowers is individually wired
by a florist. We've individually picked the head. It's individually
wired and taped and put together. So it's structurally when
you sit around.

Speaker 7 (36:54):
It's going to stay together. That's at least an hour's
worth of work.

Speaker 2 (36:58):
So if you've got you know.

Speaker 9 (37:00):
One for you know, each of your mums and a
couple of grandmas, if you've got five or six corsages,
you're sitting at you know, six hours there alone.

Speaker 4 (37:08):
You were wired at your wedding.

Speaker 2 (37:10):
Leah, that sounds reasonable. Thank you, Leah, that sounds reasonable,
I think.

Speaker 3 (37:13):
So you know what, Now let's get to those what's
the bond beyond your arees?

Speaker 4 (37:18):
For people just chip their teeth?

Speaker 2 (37:20):
What happens with that?

Speaker 5 (37:21):
Just a bunch of drunken groomsmen end up throwing it
around everywhere.

Speaker 4 (37:27):
Yeah, I listen to you. That's another fight you don't
have with your daughter.

Speaker 2 (37:31):
Thank you for all your calls.

Speaker 5 (37:33):
A crazy story of Charles Darwin and Steve Irwin you
have for us.

Speaker 3 (37:36):
Look, I'm going to link Charles Darwin, Steve Irwin and
my father.

Speaker 2 (37:41):
Okay, that's coming up on Gold.

Speaker 5 (37:45):
Podcast Gold but Jonesy Demander across Australia, it's jam Nation.

Speaker 3 (37:51):
I've got a question for you. It's all about the
cost of wedding flowers. What do Charles Darwin, Steve Irwin
and my beloved ninety two year old father after color
have in common turtlenecks. You're not quite wrong. That's good
English about turtles or tortoises. They all are connected in
some way to Harriet, the legendary tortoise that lived at

(38:14):
Australia Zoo until it was one hundred and seventy six
years old. It didn't start its life Australia Zoo. It
was owned by Charles Darwin before it was owned by
Steve Irwin. That's right, Yeah, this is a Galapicus tortoise.
It is they lived. That's one of the longest lived
ones ever. There is a one that there is one
in Madagascar that lived to one hundred and eighty eight years.

Speaker 2 (38:37):
Is that the same as human years? Is that human
years or so?

Speaker 4 (38:40):
No, it's the same thing. It's not like dogs.

Speaker 3 (38:42):
It's a year is a year, so one hundred and
seventy six years. So when someone gives you that for Christmas,
it's not just for Christmas, it's for eighteen million generations.

Speaker 4 (38:52):
Think about that.

Speaker 2 (38:53):
Put it in the wheel.

Speaker 4 (38:54):
So this one.

Speaker 3 (38:55):
Hundred Harriet one hundred and seventy six year old Galapicus
tortoise was believed to be one of three tortoises collected.
But I'll tell you in a minute how my father
is connected. He was collected by Charles Darwin during his
eighteen thirty five expedition on the HMS Beagle. They didn't
pick up my father at the same time. But Harriet

(39:17):
lived in extraordinary life, spending time in Britain before coming
to Australia in the eighteen hundredths, where she was initially
misidentified as a male and was called to Harry. Harriet
spent her final years at Australia Zoo. So this is
she lived this incredible life. So she would have been
doing her own business in Galapagus Islands. Charles Darwin was

(39:39):
sailing around HMS Beagle. He was what an interesting specimen,
let me take I'll take that which and he.

Speaker 4 (39:45):
Lived with Charles.

Speaker 3 (39:46):
She lived with Charles Darwen for some time and then
like twenty years before she passed away, she ended up
in Australian Zoo. She spent her final years there. Steve
Irwin considered her part of the family. She passed away
in two thousand and six due to heart failure, marking
the end of an incredible life that spanned almost two centuries.

Speaker 2 (40:06):
That's the same year Steve passed away.

Speaker 3 (40:08):
Well, what's really interesting, and this is where my father
comes in. My family went to Australia Zoo that year,
not long before Steve passed away. Steve wasn't there at
the time, but Terry was. We met tedr We hung
out with Terry, We hung up with Robert, who was
the same age as my youngest son, who's now twenty two,
and we hung out with Bindy. So our family, Liam

(40:30):
and Jack, my sons, Harley and I hung out with
them at Australia Zoo and we met Harriet the galapagus tortoise,
as did my father. Dad was with us too, so
Dad was particularly enamored of Harriet loves a rinkle.

Speaker 2 (40:45):
About the same age.

Speaker 4 (40:47):
That's right.

Speaker 3 (40:47):
I remember him feeding Harriet a hibiscus flower and then
very very shortly.

Speaker 4 (40:54):
After she died.

Speaker 2 (40:57):
Right, So are you saying, I'm not.

Speaker 4 (40:59):
Saying my father killed Harriet. That was the thing.

Speaker 3 (41:02):
I have looked this up over the years and occasionally
they do. It wasn't a poison or anything like that.
The timing was she had heart failure and you know,
well she lived one hundred and seventy six years she'll
her dad and thought, okay.

Speaker 4 (41:13):
I'm out.

Speaker 3 (41:15):
So interesting. That's how my father is linked to Charles
Darwin and Steve Irwin. But this is another interesting thing
about this, is it Terry Owen has written about this
in her book that John Edwards the psychic went to
Australia Zoo and spoke to Harriet. Apparently he wasn't aware
that he could communicate with living animals, and he went
to the zoo and Harriet communicated with him. And here's

(41:38):
some things. This is what Terry Ewan has said. And
she's not a woo woo person, as you know, John
Edwards is a friend of hers. But she's not woo,
she said, Although John, I think what you.

Speaker 2 (41:49):
Say, she's like woo, not woo woo, just sad people
think that.

Speaker 3 (41:53):
Yeah, No, she's I don't think she's very fairy. No,
she's not, she said. John hadn't been to the zoo before,
but Harriet the tortoise told him that she used to
be in another enclosure, which she liked, but she liked
this new one better. And that made sense because apparently
her new enclosure was bigger.

Speaker 4 (42:09):
Harriet had said she.

Speaker 3 (42:10):
Liked the one of the keepers who had an accent,
but it wasn't Australian or American. John couldn't pick it.
Then he met Jan who was English. She said, that's
the accent. John said that Harriet had said she'd had
blood drawn from her tail, which they said, yes, that's correct,
we did a DNA profile on her. But what about this?
They thought John didn't get this bit right. John said,

(42:31):
Harriet misses her blanket, and Terry said, you know, John,
Harriet can't have a blanket because she tries to eat everything.
Just ask the High biscuits. She misses her blanket, John insisted.
After he left the zoo, I asked Steve about it.
Did Harriet have a blanket?

Speaker 4 (42:45):
Nah mate? Steve said she'd have eaten it.

Speaker 3 (42:48):
Weeks went by and I visited Steve's dad, Bob, and
told him about John Edwards right up to the blanket,
and he said he was spot on until he got
to the blanket. Oh, and said he was on italy
got to the blanket. Bob's face, this is the dad.
Steve's dad widened with a big grin. Actually, back in
the eighties, he said a woman knitted a blanket for

(43:09):
Harriet on cold nights before we had given Harriet a
heat lamp. We'd put the blanket over her shell, hoping
it would help her contain some of her heat during
the night. But Bob said, Harriet had that blanket for
weeks and weeks until one day she tried to eat
it and we.

Speaker 4 (43:22):
Had to take it away.

Speaker 3 (43:24):
So she'd had a blanket, and that all said, John's
talking out of his wazoo, because why would we give
her one? And she had had a blanket, extraordinary, extraord.

Speaker 2 (43:33):
We've gone from woo woo to wazoo.

Speaker 4 (43:35):
I know it's all there at the zoo zoo.

Speaker 2 (43:38):
Were playing Yazuo. I'd be happy.

Speaker 3 (43:39):
So in two thousand and six, just before Steve died,
Harriet the tortoise died and my father was responsible.

Speaker 2 (43:46):
Maybe I mean there coming out.

Speaker 5 (43:48):

muscular of sport.

Speaker 2 (52:01):

Do you think it's muscular?

Speaker 4 (52:47):

Speaker 5 (52:49):
The Fast five will be back again tomorrow, coming up
Axel Rose. He sounds like someone. I don't think it's
someone you want to sound like.

Speaker 2 (52:57):
We'll talk about that next on Gold and Amanda podcast.

Speaker 9 (53:04):
Do you know?

Speaker 3 (53:05):
On the show yesterday I spoke about the new versions
of hot for the sexy young actors who aren't traditionally handsome.

Speaker 2 (53:11):
Jajar binks Hot.

Speaker 4 (53:13):
Jajar Binkshet.

Speaker 3 (53:14):
We've had rat hot, We've had Kapy Barra hot, We've
had Frog hot. Harry Stars is Frog hot, Glenn Glen Pale,
thank you, he is kp Kapy bar are hot. And
then Jajar binks Hot is a new one. I hadn't
heard of. Eyes high and close together. You think John Travolta,
think Austin Butler.

Speaker 2 (53:34):
What would I be in this scale? I think.

Speaker 3 (53:37):
I hate to say this, but You're probably too classically
handsome to be any of these rodent hots.

Speaker 2 (53:42):
It's a burden.

Speaker 4 (53:43):
I bet it is.

Speaker 3 (53:44):
But the latest pawn that people, particularly women, are seeking
on television. This is an article in the Washington Post
is competency pawn. Competency pawn is when the world is
in chaos, people finding sokur in watching capable people solving
complex problems, and the show that they're all pointing to

(54:05):
is the Pit.

Speaker 4 (54:06):
If you watched The Pit.

Speaker 2 (54:07):
I've watched The Pit. That is a great show.

Speaker 3 (54:09):
It's won a whole lot of swathe of awards recently.
The Pit is about a hospital in Pittsburgh. He's the
trader for it.

Speaker 2 (54:16):
Welcome to the Pit. It's going to save some life.
So now you've lost a lot of blood. You need
to go to surgery right away.

Speaker 4 (54:21):
Now that I'm here, let's go now.

Speaker 2 (54:24):
Cost here, are you ready to call this? Fifty thousand
people day every day in the world.

Speaker 8 (54:31):
So there you go, one of them, and we're going
to get more of them before the ship deserved you
learn to accept the fine balance you have.

Speaker 2 (54:37):
Balance, No, not even close.

Speaker 4 (54:41):
So that's the Pittsburgh Trauma Medical Center.

Speaker 2 (54:43):
It's all in one day.

Speaker 3 (54:44):
This is the whole series. You're up to series two. Now,
the whole series is one day. It's in our long
increments quite.

Speaker 2 (54:50):
Extra twenty four. Yeah, I did my head in.

Speaker 3 (54:53):
But what they're saying is that this is competency porn,
because even characters you don't like, if you see them
care about their job and doing good work is enough
for people. So if you're into that show, you are
a porn connoisseur, according to The Washington Post, So isn't
that interesting that the world's in chaos? So we just
want to see someone who makes you feel calm that

(55:13):
even in this chaos, there's grown ups taking care of that.

Speaker 2 (55:17):
What about incompetency porn?

Speaker 4 (55:19):
That's incontinency porn. That's what you're into.

Speaker 2 (55:21):
That's my sex tape?

Speaker 4 (55:24):
Who's in the wed Patch? Everybody?

Speaker 2 (55:28):
Axel Rose?

Speaker 5 (55:29):
What? Axel Rose has set the Internet on fire, not
for the way We're going to talk about that next
on Gold. You are indeed around the country.

Speaker 2 (55:42):
And I'm not one to say to an artist it's
time to retire, because as I get older, are you
telling me well? I remember when Keith Richard said, I
don't do this for the money. I don't do this
for you. I do it for me. And Keith Richards
is still going in our Frankie Valley.

Speaker 4 (55:57):
Did you see Cliff Richard's recently that look good? Yeah,
but bully for him for.

Speaker 5 (56:03):
Having I love doing this and I like to do
it as long as I'm capable, which is great.

Speaker 2 (56:08):
Case in point.

Speaker 5 (56:09):
Axel Rose has got the ire of the Internet, and
people haven't been happy with his most recent performance, people
have says sounds like me in a car. Time to retire, buddy.
People aren't happy with his performance. Axel Rose, sweetcheart of mine.
Let's let's relive the glory days.

Speaker 6 (56:27):
You know it.

Speaker 2 (56:29):
He's got the swagger.

Speaker 4 (56:32):
So does he not sound like that anymore?

Speaker 5 (56:34):
That's Axel then? So you know, come on, the guy's
just trying to make a living. It can't be that bad.
Let's have a listen.

Speaker 4 (56:47):
Yeah, wow, it's a little thinner. His voice has taken
those zempic.

Speaker 2 (56:52):
What about this next? But remember this bit that's a
bit easier. How does it go?

Speaker 4 (57:02):
Oh wow?

Speaker 2 (57:06):
This on that axle?

Speaker 6 (57:07):
You know.

Speaker 2 (57:07):
The problem is it's the chorus. You get to the chorus,
it's like an air raise him. Then that was him?
Then this is him now.

Speaker 5 (57:22):
So, as you can imagine, the internet hasn't been kind.
The cruelest of all insults have been that Axl Rose
sounds like Herbert the pervert.

Speaker 4 (57:35):
Family, the one is always trying to crack onto crease free.

Speaker 2 (57:38):
Yes, hell, that one for me with the family guy character.
This is him the furniture to keep it and I
can't hear what about Axel?

Speaker 8 (57:54):
Wow?

Speaker 2 (57:55):
Spot on Herbert shall we take each other?

Speaker 6 (58:05):
Yes?

Speaker 2 (58:07):
Please don't say Herbert. Maybe he could find another avenue. Wow,
maybe wow, Maybe we should look over there and put
this on.

Speaker 4 (58:25):
Is this Herbert?

Speaker 2 (58:28):
Wash your mouth? It's guns and Roses, man, it's Jonesy
de Matter's jam Nation on Gold jam jam Nation.

Speaker 5 (58:37):
Goal with Jonesy, no matter across Australia jam Nation. Anything
you say about actual Roses singing, you can say right
to my face.

Speaker 4 (58:44):
Well, I think we do need to address it, don't you?

Speaker 7 (58:46):
Come on?

Speaker 4 (58:47):
You can't ignore that he sounds like Herbert.

Speaker 6 (58:53):
