Speaker 1 (00:27):
Big news this week is.

Speaker 2 (00:31):
No one asked it, but there's going to be a giant,
golden Trump Tower built in Australia. Of course it's in
Surfers Paradise, the perfect place for it and uproar. Some
people are excited, some people are very upset. That's the
word the world these days. Here's my take. I think
if that's okay, Trump Tower being built here in Australia,

(00:53):
and it would be come Australia's tallest building, a golden monolith.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
To what anyway?

Speaker 2 (01:00):
We should have a giant, big thing and Australia loves
big things, which aught must yesterday, the many many, there's
over a thousand big things on the sides of rose
around Australia.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
We need to export that to America. Oh, get one back. Yes,
I like it, A.

Speaker 2 (01:17):
Random fiber class giant thing somewhere at a key place,
a landmark in America. I think it's then it's then
there's a sense here of balance and next year stay
the Union address. I'd like Trump to be announcing a
collab and excuse me, collab with Australia.

Speaker 1 (01:39):
We get to have the giant bin Chicken or Washington,
you know, get right next to the monument.

Speaker 2 (01:46):
So I'm thinking Las Vegas strip, a giant steaming meat pie.

Speaker 1 (01:51):
Oh I like it. Or the iconic Mount Rushmore.

Speaker 2 (01:55):
Steve Owen's face just one, just one, but it's bigger
than all the others. Because if he's got the biggest
building in this country, we should now have a giant
mega Steve Irwin added to Mount Rushmore.

Speaker 1 (02:07):
Yes, yes, love that.

Speaker 3 (02:09):
I was thinking speaking of Vegas. You know how they've
got the sphere yep, maybe we could have the eski

just some Bogans a tribute band to you too.

Speaker 3 (02:25):
Yeah, we do the Aussie version where it's like we
just play like a current affair. Brander Birchmore has a residency.

Speaker 2 (02:36):
Y Vegas residence is our Celine Dions. Yes see Greed
and Roy.

Speaker 1 (02:44):
What about the Statue of Liberty that could give a
bit of Australiana to it. You know how the Statue
of Liberty is holding the torch. Yea, replace the torch
with a can of v b Oh, that's good. You
know what that is. And it is beautiful and his classy, sophisticated.
It is understated.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
Yes, yes, yes, all right? What are we putting? And
we're in America. If they can build Trump to our hair,
what are we going to build in America?

Speaker 1 (03:09):
Cool now?

Speaker 2 (03:10):
Thirteen fifty five, twenty two. So what is the big thing?
And where in America is it going? Don't forget there's
a lot of spare space in the Grand Canyon as well.

Speaker 4 (03:20):
Christian Connell Show podcast.

Speaker 1 (03:23):
What do we place and where? What do you reckon? Pantsy?

Speaker 2 (03:25):
Well?

Speaker 3 (03:26):
I reckon the Hollywood signs looking a bit tired, a
bit long in the tooth, isn't it.

Speaker 1 (03:29):
It is a bit It needs a bit of color,
bond bland.

Speaker 2 (03:33):
You go up there and you think.

Speaker 1 (03:34):
Some dew lux up there or somethink. You're right, it's
a bit flaky that paint, isn't it.

Speaker 4 (03:38):
So we need what we need is a pair of
budgy smugglers up there, big fiberglass budgy smuklers overlook in
the La Lomber Here a bit.

Speaker 1 (03:47):
Of Australia Christian.

Speaker 2 (03:48):
What about we build a massive drop bear on the
middle of Central Park. What about a jar of mega
vegimi the size of the sphere.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
All the street.

Speaker 2 (03:59):
That's the gre ideal Christian. What about the grounds of
the White House? A giant holden ute, listen.

Speaker 1 (04:05):
There's a lot of a lot of land.

Speaker 2 (04:07):
He's got there at the White House. I think he
needs to boge it up. Yes, he needs an outdoor jim,
you know, and I could pull up bar and stuff
like that.

Speaker 1 (04:14):
Some ventures actually RFK be it. So I got one? Yeah,
all right? What are we building? And we're in America?

Thirteen fifty five twenty two, let's got to Tony now,
Good morning, Tony, good morning.

Speaker 5 (04:28):
How are you.

Speaker 2 (04:29):
I'm good Tony, Welcome to the show. So what should
we put up in or should we erect in America?

Speaker 5 (04:35):
Well, the biggest iconic symbol like I can seen America
would be a pair of bootie smugglers with the alternate
Australian national anthem showing on there with a koala bear
and a kangaroo on the side. And then have it
hanging hanging from the Hollywood signed.

Speaker 3 (04:56):
Okay, so dangling down you've got a bunchie smugglers and
then either.

Speaker 1 (05:01):
Side quite the statement. It looks like a school. It
has gone a bit crazy there. Know, if we score,
it's a tea bone. Let's go.

Speaker 2 (05:13):
Cultural ambassador to America. There, Tony and Sydney and Chris.
Good morning, Chris, good morning. I'm good Chris, welcome show.
So what should we install in America?

Speaker 4 (05:24):
Well, add on the South kIPS Land Highway. There used
to be this giant earthworm which probably the older listeners
will remember, and I was thinking that could be representative
on Wall Street for the as X. We could put
that on Wall Street next to that giant.

Speaker 2 (05:39):
Shows the might of the Aussie Dons and a fiberglass wonderful.
It's wrapping around, it's snaking its way around the ball.

Speaker 1 (05:48):
