That's right, everybody, welcome to the Brian Clint Show. Who

Speaker 3 (00:31):
There is a bit worse for wear after her book
launch last night, which is fair enough.

Speaker 1 (00:36):
It was a hell of a book launch.

Speaker 4 (00:37):
It was one hell of a book launch, pushed out
the boats, celebrated more of a more of a drag
show book show. It was that clozy cabaret. And if
you've never been to that incredible venue.

Which I hadn't, that was my first closing. What did
you think? It was incredible? Isn't it? They do such
a good job.

Speaker 4 (00:57):
If you're looking for something different or to go and
have some fun, look into Kaluuzi Cabaretti.

if Ross bosses in the office and if he's listening
at the moment.

Speaker 1 (01:07):

My suggestion is that we have the Zidim Christmas Party
at Kalusi This hell yeah, it is honestly the best
place if you're not having your hens party there. If
you're not having your end of work party there, you're crazy.
It is such a good time.

a menu.

Speaker 1 (01:27):
The three drag queens that were there last night.

Speaker 4 (01:29):
My favorite was seeing the looks on people's faces, the
ones who'd never been to Kaluzi didn't realize what was
going on. The lights went off and everyone kind of
shuffled to their seat and next minute these three drag
queens burst out from nowhere into this full performance of
its raining men and it was just amazing.

it in they also owned.

queens called him Daddy, which was a fun part of
the night.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
Thank you, guys, very good.

Speaker 4 (05:59):
I saw the article talking about a psychological test that
can tell you things about your personality with a bit
of a riddle, okay, and I thought we should all
give it a go. Producers, you want to give it
a go? Or CBF is just.

Speaker 3 (06:14):
Like that one where it's like you've got a lion,
a snake, and a bear and you have to save
one or something.

Speaker 1 (06:19):
Of yeah, yeah, yeah, okay.

Speaker 4 (06:21):
So essentially I'll give you the scenario and based on
what you choose to do in the scenario, Apparently it
says a lot about you, says certain things about your personality.

Speaker 1 (06:32):
Okay, see we go.

Speaker 4 (06:34):
Imagine you're driving home on a deserted road in a
sports car in the middle of a stormy night. On
your way home, you pause at a bus stop and
notice four people desperately in need of transportation. The next
bus isn't scheduled until the morning, and you can only.

Speaker 1 (06:51):
Fit three of them in your car.

Speaker 4 (06:53):
You cannot bend the rules to allow you to fit
all four in the car with you.

Speaker 1 (06:58):
Driving, can't stick one in the boat not.

Speaker 4 (07:02):
You go up to meet them. Here's your choices. Okay,
these are the four people that you meet. The first
one a pregnant woman who started to have excruciating pain
and looks like she's on the verge of giving birth.
She's pleading to be sent to any hospital or at
least be helped while going into labors. Number two a
young child that's crying and screaming because he or she

(07:25):
wandered away from his or her parents in their home.
The child doesn't know where his address is, but does
know the full name of their parents. They just want
to go back back to their parents and be home
with them. Number three a surgeon doctor with his briefcase

(07:46):
that contains his medical tools. He needs to go to
his hospital as soon as possible in order to perform
a very critical surgery. The fourth person is someone who
just wants to go home, But it happens to be
someone that you already know.

Speaker 1 (08:02):
You've met this person before.

Speaker 4 (08:04):
They are a very dear and close friend to you
and someone that you have desired in the past and
could bet it could be your potential forever love match.

Speaker 3 (08:17):
Yeah, okay, do we know what happens to the person
left behind, like do they die or something that's have
an uncomfortable night for themselves.

Speaker 1 (08:24):
We don't know. That's the hard part. I can't leave
the pregnant lady or the child. Yeah, agreed that we
all agreed on that.

Speaker 3 (08:32):
No, I just do mind. Then I can't leave pregnant
lady and the child. So it's between the doctor and
the hot person that I'm hoping to hook up with
one day.

Speaker 1 (08:44):
Are you going to leave? Yeah?

Speaker 3 (08:46):
That's out of those two that I leave for. Probably
leave the hotty. From being selfless, I feel I feel
like it's a surgeon and they're like, I have to
perform surgery. You know, there's lives in the balance. The
only person in that in that scenario for me whose
life isn't in the balance is the hottie.

Speaker 1 (09:07):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (09:09):
Yeah, but it could mean because it does say it's.

Speaker 1 (09:12):
Your own happiness if you don't, if you.

Speaker 4 (09:15):
Choose to leave that person, it does say that you
might never ever see that person again.

Speaker 8 (09:20):
Wait, so is this like your partner, like we as
your wife.

Speaker 1 (09:24):
No, it's your crush.

Speaker 4 (09:26):
Yeah, but someone that could be your perfect match and
you could be with forever.

Speaker 1 (09:30):
Quick game is a good game. I'm leaving my crush, Claudia.

Speaker 9 (09:34):
Is it bending the rules to only take two? Is
that bending the rules?

Speaker 7 (09:39):
Nah?

Speaker 5 (09:40):
Allow it.

Speaker 9 (09:40):
I'll take the pregnant woman because she's obviously needs to
be taken. I'll take the surgeon because someone else needs help.
This person that I have a crush on, I probably
trust them, so I'll leave them with the kid. The
kid knows who their parents are, so they'll sort each
other out.

Speaker 1 (09:53):
Oh, it's quite a good solution. That is quite good. Ella.
You're not allowed to copy that one. What's your decision.

Speaker 8 (09:59):
I'll leave the surgeon behind.

Speaker 1 (10:04):
Okay, what does it say about us?

Speaker 4 (10:06):
So the pregnant lady represents health, okay, the doctor represents Korea.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
These are the things that you prioritize. Is that what
it means? Yes?

Speaker 4 (10:18):
The lost child represents father slash motherhood, family in the
significant other represents love, friendship, marriage in relationships.

Speaker 3 (10:30):
So I sacrificed love yep.

Speaker 1 (10:32):
Damn it.

Speaker 3 (10:35):
Alla sacrificed her career yep, and sacrificed.

Speaker 8 (10:38):
Love and children. This actually makes sense.

Speaker 1 (10:45):
Claudia saved her health.

Speaker 4 (10:48):
Yeah, money and money.

Speaker 1 (10:53):
Where you go.

Speaker 3 (10:56):
This is very exciting because we've got Bluey in the studio,
but Blue is here in puppet form, So instead of
speaking with Blue, will be speaking with the puppetry director
for the Blue Show, Jacob Williams. Kido, Welcome to the studio.

Speaker 1 (11:10):
Thank you very much for having us.

Speaker 4 (11:12):
God, this is like star power in the studio right now.
This is probably the biggest star we've ever had on
the show.

Speaker 10 (11:19):
Look, we've done a bit of media this morning, and
I'm so surprised just how starstruck New Zealanders are.

Speaker 1 (11:25):
Are you surprised?

Speaker 10 (11:26):
Well, no, not really, Yeah, I'll feel the whole world
that everyone's stars struck a blue he's being humble.

Speaker 2 (11:31):
Yeah.

Speaker 10 (11:32):
Yeah, It truly is like a juggernaut of a worldwide status.

Speaker 3 (11:36):
And do you feel that pressure as the person who
has been tasked with bringing Blue to life on stage?

Speaker 1 (11:42):
Do you feel that pressure? Because people love this dog
and this family and this entire show.

Speaker 10 (11:47):
We did feel the pressure when we created it, and
we had We created it with Ludo, who create the animation,
so they were right there with us. Yeah, sort of
sitting in the corner playing good cop, bad cops, and
we like that that's not quite Blue, Oh that's Louie.
And so we were sort of, you know, we had
to live up to this amazing show, and so we
were really myself and the director and the designer, we're

(12:10):
really conscious about what Bluey means to people.

Speaker 1 (12:13):
How long did that process take?

Speaker 10 (12:15):
We started before the lockdowns back in twenty twenty, and
then we got lockdown, which gave us six months extra
time to think about how we can okay, And then
it was a sort of a six week process.

Speaker 4 (12:27):
So Blue is looking at me, Louis put those eyebrows down.

Speaker 10 (12:32):
But the minute Blue skipped on stage that first time
and we played in front of a hometown in Queensland.
It was like the Beatles of the nineteen sixties, says.

Speaker 1 (12:41):
People went wild. Yeah, and they've been going wild ever since.

Speaker 10 (12:45):
In We went to Singapore recently and I thought Singapore
is quite a conservative country.

Speaker 1 (12:49):
They went wild.

Speaker 4 (12:51):
You were saying before that this show that is coming
to New Zealand first time, it's going to be here
in New Zealand. But you've done this show all over
the world. Where can you name some of the places
you guys have been.

Speaker 10 (13:02):
Well, probably every city in America. Just finishing up a
two year two over there. Wow, it's came back from Abydhrby.
It's just it's currently in Spain, so we had to
translate it so over in London recently.

Speaker 1 (13:14):
Doing Spanish Bluey. I loved it. Spanish Bluey. Yes, there's Spaniel.

Speaker 10 (13:20):
Luckily it wasn't me voicing it. So yeah, And it's
just it just goes to show how universal Bluey is
to people.

Speaker 3 (13:28):
It is and I feel that. But at its core,
I've got two little girls and so we've watched a
lot of Bluey. It's quintessentially Australian, this show, like it
is Ossie Humor even.

Speaker 10 (13:39):
More that quintessentially Queensland. That's a good point, which has
a different flavor to the rest of Australia.

Speaker 3 (13:44):
But that translates well to New Zealand. Breeze Queenslander, and
she translates well here in New Zealand sometimes.

Speaker 1 (13:50):
But what do you think.

Speaker 3 (13:51):
It's enduring relevance is globally? Why does the story of.

Speaker 1 (13:56):
This family make sense so much everywhere?

Speaker 10 (13:58):
Well, Joe Brahm, who created and all the episodes, they're
all true stories and it's just so relatable. I think
people see ourselves his family. We've all been banned, or
we've all been Chile, We've all been Bluey and Bingo. Yeah,
it's and it's relatable derby in Singapore, America and New Zealand.

Speaker 3 (14:15):
I know you don't write the cartoon or produce a cartoon,
but bre did you want to share what your dream is?

Speaker 1 (14:20):
Oh? Yeah, maybe you can get this back to the
right people. This is what's in the right direction.

Speaker 10 (14:25):
Because I can't promise anything, but you could tell Blue Blue.

Speaker 4 (14:28):
I don't know if you've ever thought about having, you know,
another BFF best friend come into the show, but I
would love to be that person. Season four, Blue Blue
is excited. I think I've got the voice for it.
I feel like I'm a Queenslander, country Queenslander. Maybe Blue's
country friend.

Speaker 10 (14:48):
Yeah, that sounds highly possible. I'll get my people talking
to their people and maybe they'll get back to him.

Speaker 1 (14:54):
Yeah, don't call Bloe Blue, I'll call you. What sort
of dog would you be or something small?

Speaker 10 (15:00):
Well, we just saw the friendliest Jack Russell out in
the four yer. Yeah, Jack Russell.

Speaker 4 (15:04):
It'd be me and I'd come in and I'd be
like crikey Bloey.

Speaker 1 (15:07):
And she'd eat everything you can, chew the legs off everything.
I really would.

Speaker 3 (15:11):
The show is going to Dunedin, christ Church, Wellington, Hamilton
and Auckland in April twenty twenty five. The tickets are
going on sale from Livenation, dot co, dot NZI on Wednesday,
October twenty three. That's next week, isn't it? Wednesday?

Speaker 1 (15:24):
Next week for tickets for us.

Speaker 10 (15:25):
Yeah, in time for Christmas presents. Perfect, great Christmas present,
Christmas present for the whole family.

Speaker 3 (15:30):
Great to meet you, Bluey, Great to meet you Jacob.
We'll see you guys here in New Zella next year.
Thanks for coming out.

Speaker 1 (15:36):
I saw this story today about a job that has
been advertised at none other than Buckingham Palace. Well, it's
been advertised by Buckingham Palace. What is the job? Doesn't
say specifically?

Speaker 3 (15:52):
Oh really, yeah, but I'm imagining it's some kind of
staff like butler.

Speaker 1 (15:58):
No, I do think butler.

Speaker 3 (15:59):
I mean butler's get paid more than this, like like
foot servants. This would be like some kind of cleaner, right, okay,
like someone to bring the newspaper in or something like that.

Speaker 1 (16:10):
I don't know specific that's a whole job. What do
you do for the rest of the time at a
good point? I don't know.

Speaker 3 (16:17):
The job ad which got taken down after people saw
that it was paying below minimum wage to work for
the Royal Family stingy. The ad was on the Royal
Family's website. It was for twenty two thousand pounds a year,
which is forty seven thousand, one hundred and eighty New
Zealand dollars a year.

Speaker 1 (16:37):
That's not much.

Speaker 3 (16:39):
They wanted you to work forty hours a week at
Windsor Castle and when they broke it down, that meant
that you were on ten pounds fifty seven an hour,
which is twenty two dollars seventy an hour, which is
eighty sevenpence or in New Zealand dollars a whole dollar
ninety an hour below minimum wage for just the forty hours.

Speaker 1 (17:00):
Hi, can you come and work below minimum wage at
my castle? Nothing? Yeah, pretty out of touch.

Speaker 3 (17:08):
Nothing shows that you're out of touch more than hiring
staff but not actually knowing what minimum wage is.

Speaker 4 (17:15):
Yeah, it's so it's always so interesting, Like it's interesting
when you see clips of like people in the royal
family or like even super wealthy people and they just
have no idea the concept of money.

Speaker 3 (17:28):
It's my favorite thing in elections when they ask politicians
who want to be president or prime minister? Yeah, how
much is a loaf of bread? How much is a
block of cheese? How much is two litters of milk?

Speaker 1 (17:39):
It's like when Chris.

Speaker 4 (17:40):
Luxon said that he could feed himself for fifty dollars
a week.

Speaker 1 (17:44):
Oh, I think it was sixty? Oh oh was it? Oh?

Speaker 4 (17:47):
Sorry, by the steak then definitely no one.

Speaker 1 (17:50):
No one's groceries have been sixty dollars since nineteen eighty two.
I'm like, Christopher Luxon, are you eating ramen and rice?
Is that it? Are you still getting free meals from
in New Zealand like in flight meals, Yeah, are you
paying for any of your meals? Buckingham Palace said it
was a typo. Oh, here we go trying to cover
it up.

Speaker 3 (18:09):
And they updated the last thing. They took it down
and they updated it. It's actually paying twenty four thousand pounds,
which is fifty one thousand New Zealand dollars. So they've
instantly bumped it up by four and a half thousand
dollars a year.

Speaker 4 (18:24):
So they have bumped it up just so it's not
underum minimum wage, right.

Speaker 1 (18:30):
It probably is just a minimum wage now can.

Speaker 3 (18:33):
You tell me what was it before? And they said
there was a type forty seven, one hundred and eighty.
It's now fifty one, eight hundred and seventy.

Speaker 1 (18:42):
How could it be a typo when they got every
single number wrong? Yeah, exactly, every single number was wrong.

Speaker 3 (18:48):
I thought we could do an experiment this afternoon with
people who believe that once you work out your hourly rate,
so this is really for people who are on salary,
but once you were look out how many hours a
week you do for your weekly salary, are you technically
on below minimum wage? There was a story earlier this
week that you talked about about a doctor who said,

(19:11):
now it's not minimum wage, but they said, I'm a doctor,
I'm a fully qualified doctor, and I'm making about thirty
bucks an hour. Yeah, yeah, doctor. By the time they
a factored in all of the hours that they do.

Speaker 4 (19:21):
Exactly for the amount of hours they're working and for being,
you know, a new entry level doctor, are they making
about thirty dollars an hour?

Speaker 3 (19:29):
You don't get paid hourly, you get paid on a salary.
But once you factor in how many hours you do
a week, what is your hourly rate work out to
and is it below minimum wage? And what kind of
work do you do for that below minimum wage money?

Speaker 1 (19:44):
We'd love to hear from you.

Speaker 3 (19:46):
Buckingham Palace, the Royal family are in trouble for putting
up a job ad which people worked out was less
than minimum wage once you broke it down.

Speaker 1 (19:53):
To forty hours of work. Not a good look for
the palace. Not a good look.

Speaker 3 (19:57):
So we're asking, once you add up the hours that
you do and divide it by how much you're paid,
have you worked out that you're on below minimum wage which,
for the record, minimum wage in New Zealand currently is
twenty three dollars fifteen an hour? Okay, the living wage
in New Zealand, which is the amount they work out
that you need to earn to quote live with dignity

(20:20):
in New Zealand twenty seven dollars eighty.

Speaker 1 (20:22):
So four dollars fifty ish above minimum So far away
from each other.

Speaker 3 (20:27):
Yeah, yeah, So the idea is that you should encourage
workplaces to pay the living wage, not the main and
not the.

Speaker 4 (20:34):
Minimum wage where people can't live with dignity.

Speaker 1 (20:38):
So what job are you doing?

Speaker 3 (20:39):
And if you worked it out, which could be quite depressing,
are you technically below minimum wage?

Speaker 1 (20:43):
High? Anonymous? High anonymous?

Speaker 11 (20:45):
Hi?

Speaker 12 (20:46):
Hi?

Speaker 1 (20:46):
What do you do for a job?

Speaker 11 (20:49):
So?

Speaker 6 (20:49):
The job I'm calling about is actually a job I
had when I first left teachers college.

Speaker 1 (20:56):
Okay, I was a.

Speaker 6 (20:58):
Primary school teacher at a rural school, right and by
the time I put together all of my planning hours,
all of my meetings and even all the little things
for the classroom I worked out, I was only on
about eight dollars an hour.

Speaker 1 (21:15):
Did you say eight dollars eight? What year was this about?

Speaker 6 (21:21):
Ten years ago?

Speaker 3 (21:22):
Even then, ten years ago minimum wage was like fifteen,
like nineteen dollars.

Speaker 1 (21:28):
I think this is.

Speaker 4 (21:29):
What's a real big problem. Like I remember growing up
in a rural area getting teachers to go out there,
especially if you're not going to pay them what they're worth.

Speaker 1 (21:40):
Are you still a teacher inonymous? No, I'm not that
because of the pay.

Speaker 6 (21:46):
Yeah, pretty much.

Speaker 1 (21:47):
Yeah, Okay, that's rough. Thanks for sharing. We appreciate it.

Speaker 4 (21:51):
Someone opposite end of the spectrum someone texted her and said.

Speaker 1 (21:55):
What is my hourly rate?

Speaker 4 (21:57):
Honestly, it's about forty dollars an hour and it feels
so good.

Speaker 1 (22:01):
Oh yeah, so that's the line. That's where you're like
forty dollars an hour? So how much do you reckon?
They earn at forty hours a week, Let's say forty
hours a week, at forty bucks an.

Speaker 3 (22:11):
Hour times forty is sixteen hundred a week times fifty
two weeks a year, they're on eighty three thousand a year.

Speaker 1 (22:17):
Not bad. Let's talk to anonymous number two high.

Speaker 3 (22:20):
Anonymous number two high, Anonymous, Hi, it's going a depressing topic,
isn't it.

Speaker 1 (22:26):
What do you do for work? Anonymous? What's your vocation?

Speaker 7 (22:29):
I'm a self employed midwife.

Speaker 1 (22:31):
Okay, what do you mean? You're self employed midwife?

Speaker 7 (22:34):
So you can be your hospital midwife who works in
the hospital. I'm sure.

Speaker 1 (22:38):
Yeah, you need to be one.

Speaker 6 (22:39):
That caselows, so you have your own caseload.

Speaker 1 (22:41):
Who gets paid more, probably.

Speaker 7 (22:45):
The hospital midwives if you break it down.

Speaker 1 (22:47):
So why do you want to be self employed?

Speaker 7 (22:51):
I just like in heaven, like the continuity of care
with like woman and family and yeah, just like and
you just have been one on one and you give.

Speaker 1 (23:00):
You can choose when you're a free lamper, can't you're anonymous?
You can be like I want to work with those people.
I don't want to do that, baby, I want to
do that one. Okay anonymous? If you work, if you
worked it out, what's your hourly rate? Oh?

Speaker 7 (23:10):
Look, it depends on the week. So if you've got
like a whole week of weeks and you're doing thirty
hours at a birth, it would be five or six
dollars an hour.

Speaker 1 (23:20):
Now are you kidding me?

Speaker 7 (23:23):
I'm really not kidding you. And then we on top
of that, get no annual evil.

Speaker 1 (23:27):
No sick leaves, and no key we have contributions.

Speaker 4 (23:32):
No no, how how I just don't understand such an
important job, like incredibly important job, and you're not getting
paid the money that you're worth like without you, what happens.

Speaker 7 (23:46):
It's amazing, right.

Speaker 1 (23:47):
It's crazy. So why do you do it for five
dollars an hour? Why do you do it? Anonymous?

Speaker 9 (23:51):
I love it.

Speaker 13 (23:52):
I love working.

Speaker 7 (23:53):
I love being a midwife. I love bringing you life
into the family a person.

Speaker 1 (23:57):
Yeah, yeah, I try.

Speaker 3 (24:00):
We've had amazing midwives in our journey. Are your amazing people?
So thanks for sharing an one of us.

Speaker 1 (24:05):
We appreciate it.

Speaker 3 (24:06):
You're welcome.

Speaker 1 (24:07):
God, that's so annoying. It really annoyed me.

Speaker 3 (24:10):
Yeah, it does when you see because they're on call
twenty four hours a day thing, and the babies don't
babies don't come between nine and five.

Speaker 4 (24:17):
No, yeah, and it's so emotionally draining, taxing, like every
oh god.

Speaker 3 (24:22):
Someone said, the military tells you that you're paid twenty
four to seven, so you have to be on call
twenty four to seven. That would mean that I'm paid
an hourly rate of nine dollars thirty four.

Speaker 1 (24:32):
Jase, that's rough. It's twenty four to seven. That is right.

Speaker 3 (24:35):
I'm a school teacher. I reckon, I'm on eleven bucks
an hour.

Speaker 4 (24:39):
There was a few teachers that have text through and
said that, yeah, salary approximately sixty four k a year.
I do ninety five hours a fortnight. After tax, that
would be about nineteen dollars an hour.

Speaker 1 (24:55):
Yeah, god, that's some good math.

Speaker 3 (24:57):
Someone tached in and said, don't take the job before
you ask what the salary is and how many hours
you're expected to work, and then divide that to find
out if you're a minimum wage or not.

Speaker 1 (25:08):
It's a great way to look at it.

Speaker 3 (25:09):
But if you if you're if your purpose in life
is to be a nurse or a midwife, you know
you don't have the luxury of going.

Speaker 4 (25:16):
Sometimes someone takes through and said, farming enough said, because
the amount of hours farmers do is endless.

Speaker 1 (25:24):
You're on zero dollars an hour sometimes.

Speaker 4 (25:26):
Pretty much like depending on what's happening with your with
your crop or with your with your animals. Hey you
know who, Hey Claude, could you could you let news
talk z be know that we're coming for their jobs
after this?

Speaker 1 (25:42):
That doesn't it?

Speaker 9 (25:42):
Do you want me to get like a ransom note
made up?

Speaker 1 (25:44):
Because I think maybe maybe we're moving into talk back. Yeah,
we'll get the Minister of money on the phone next. Okay, Actually,
Claudes swipe that the Minister of Money. The Minister of
Money on with us at news Talks. You seen them
the guy with the monocle on the monopoly board. Oh,
I love that guy.

Speaker 4 (26:04):
Felt someone on the text machine and I don't know
because we were talking about monopoly Man and how he
has a monocle. Someone said monopoly Man never had a monocle,
just saying he did, didn't he?

Speaker 1 (26:18):
Is this the Mandela effect? He definitely has a monocle.

Speaker 3 (26:23):
Ply Man, no monocle. Who had the monocle? Was it
the fat controller?

Speaker 1 (26:31):
It was him? It was He bears a striking resemblance
of the fat controller. Look here he is with a monocle.
He's got a monocle in this one.

Speaker 3 (26:40):
Fat Controller doesn't have a monocle either. Oh, that monopoly
guy's got a monocle. Is that the monopoly guy.

Speaker 4 (26:47):
That's the Monopoly guy, isn't it It is a Yeah,
he's on the front of the monopoly box. It must
be him.

Speaker 1 (26:53):
I'm looking at modern Monopoly guy.

Speaker 3 (26:57):
Oh, there's a whole riddit page dedicated to the theory
for the monopoly man's monocle.

Speaker 1 (27:03):
What does it say? It's huge. I couldn't begin to
go into it affect mystery. What if we stumbled across.

Speaker 3 (27:12):
The Mendela effect has when a large group of people
remember something contrary to the known, publicly accepted fact. Okay,
so does he have a monocle? Are you looking at
an authentic monopoly picture where he has a monocle? I
don't know someone placed a monocle on him, because then
you can populate the internet with the images that you
want to exist.

Speaker 1 (27:33):
I really don't know. Now, Oh my god, that's so weird.
You must be the monopoly guy. Hey, thanks for the

Speaker 3 (39:46):
Is this pr for the new James Bond series? Because
Jason put there, James Bond should probably be the most
handsome man in the world at the time. He's got
to have that sex appeal. So there's a real check
in an egg situation, isn't it. Is he handsome enough
to be James Bond? Or is he James Bond because
he's handsome?

Speaker 1 (40:05):
Or guests will never know. I guess we'll never know,

Speaker 1 (40:37):
Oh god, we forgot to do our job and then
the songs started to end. But we have professionals and
so nobody will have noticed doing the thing.

Speaker 4 (40:45):
Nobody will know doing the things. Hey, speaking of the things,
weddings is what I want to talk about. There's been
a lot of chat recently I've seen on social media,
in the actual media, where people are talking about what
is the appropriate amount to spend on a wedding gift
or to give to the wishing.

Speaker 1 (41:07):
Well in twenty twenty four. In twenty twenty four, it's
an interesting.

Speaker 3 (41:11):
One because everyone's broke at the moment. It's been a really,
really rough year for everybody.

Speaker 4 (41:17):
Imagine if you're if you've got four weddings in wedding
season and you having to spend however much on each gift.

Speaker 3 (41:26):
But on the flip side, the weddings haven't got any
cheaper to put on, and you're still planning to drink
the same amount of rose at that wedding.

Speaker 4 (41:34):
So what is the right amount to spend on a
wedding gift?

Speaker 3 (41:40):
I saw Abbi Chatfield talking about this online because someone
suggested that let's go with one hundred and fifty dollars
as an amount. Someone said that one hundred and fifty
dollars is not appropriate as a wedding gift. That's a
birthday present.

Speaker 1 (41:54):
Wait, it is birthday more important?

Speaker 12 (41:56):
No?

Speaker 1 (41:56):
Less ah? I was what, Yeah, well, so it's more
than one hundred and fifty, But who's spending one hundred
and fifty dollars on their friends birthday. Yeah, not me
and my friends.

Speaker 3 (42:08):
No, I mean keen when my birthday comes around. But no,
but it.

Speaker 4 (42:13):
Means, you know, if everyone's spending that on you, you
have to spend it on everyone.

Speaker 1 (42:17):
Else who's getting their friends' birthday presents.

Speaker 4 (42:19):
Anyway, I get my friend's birthday presents, but like little
cute funds, you get.

Speaker 1 (42:23):
Each other birthday present.

Speaker 3 (42:24):
Yeah, I guess, okay, yeah, it's quite nice. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
we actually do spend about one hundred and fifty but combined, combined, yeah,
not with just one person. So wait, they're saying one
hundred and fifty is a birthday present?

Speaker 1 (42:39):
Yeah, but which the main one's opinion, that's not the benchmark.

Speaker 4 (42:43):
Which means let's just go with their opinion for a second.
So one hundred and fifty for a birthday present, So
what does that mean for a wedding present?

Speaker 1 (42:50):
So it means north of one hundred and fifty, So
two hundred is that? Just wait? Is this as a couple.
It's just me, we have a we didn't come up.
It's Ella's producer. We all need to get on the
same pathe.

Speaker 3 (43:03):
Even on the same page. So Ella, don't try and
be polite. I need an honest reaction from you, and
you probably hung over enough today to be honest with us.

Speaker 1 (43:13):
I will be honest. How much do you think people
should spend on your wedding present?

Speaker 8 (43:19):
Okay, here's the thing.

Speaker 11 (43:20):
I don't care about the monetary value, but I do
love presents.

Speaker 1 (43:25):
Okay, so you don't want money, preson's over cash.

Speaker 11 (43:28):
Ah here and there, like the cash will go to
the honeymoon, right, but I love prisons, so I am excited.

Speaker 8 (43:34):
I won't lie about that.

Speaker 11 (43:35):
Cash wise, it's so hard because we're going to get
a list thing and you can.

Speaker 14 (43:41):
Tick and just buy it a wedding registry thank you,
which is great by the way, because you put you
put fancy things on there, you put cheap things on there,
everything you actually want, and then people have the ability
to get the thing that suits their budget.

Speaker 1 (43:54):
That is awesome.

Speaker 8 (43:54):
And I'm not going to care because we.

Speaker 1 (43:56):
And it's useful stuff.

Speaker 11 (43:57):
Yes, so we want like a cutlery set, but we
love like Kmart is great, they've got the cute things.
The last ages will have a Kmart cutlery.

Speaker 1 (44:04):
No girl, no, no no no, it's no no no, genuinely,
but you get you get farmer's cutlory minimum for a
wedding prison. No, you don't cheats.

Speaker 11 (44:13):
I want good towels please. Yeah, you need heaps of
slender knife.

Speaker 1 (44:19):
Because you guys get traditional and that you are literally
setting up your lives together. You're going to get you're
going to move into your first home together. You need
to get upgrade from your king single bed.

Speaker 11 (44:29):
Yes, so thankfully Ryan has a bed that he inherited from.

Speaker 1 (44:33):
His He's got a double has any double bed queen,
it's a queen quite regulars. You're getting grandma's you're getting
grandma's old bed. No, he has it already grandma yes past.

Speaker 8 (44:44):
She went to a wrist home, but now passed and peace.

Speaker 1 (44:48):
Did nothing like starting your marriage. And did grandma bed?

Speaker 11 (44:51):
Actually it passed down to his sister and then they
rumpy pompyed on.

Speaker 1 (44:55):
It and now they can see the family bed. Yeah
did they? Did they? Everyone in Ryan's family conceive on
that mattress.

Speaker 3 (45:03):
So the bid and the four grandparents are in and
Willie Wonka and the chocolate factory.

Speaker 8 (45:08):
Yeah, that was a bit weird.

Speaker 11 (45:09):
I kind of would like to get a new bed,
to be honest.

Speaker 1 (45:11):
That's your gift. Yeah, you should just be like that.

Speaker 4 (45:14):
You can give me money towards this, get a new
bid or a vacuum.

Speaker 8 (45:17):
I really want a vacuum.

Speaker 1 (45:18):
Okay, we're so far off topic. We're trying to figure
out what the appropriate gifts? What are we thinking? Five?

Speaker 11 (45:26):
Honestly, I don't get eighty bucks one hundred bucks, like it's.

Speaker 1 (45:30):
Hard out here for she doesn't care as well, that's
she's very good about that. She is material stuff.

Speaker 11 (45:35):
But I'll take your money, Clint.

Speaker 1 (45:41):
Why just Clint's buddy.

Speaker 8 (45:43):
You know he could give some away.

Speaker 1 (45:46):
Charity. It's not charity, it's your window. Should we ask
the people? Should we ask the people? Yeah? What do you?

Speaker 3 (45:55):
I know, I know it's not about that. I know
it's not like an expectation unless it is. But why
can at some weddings it is? It's tyfinitely, there's always
there's always a benchmark. What is the benchmark for the
appropriate gift amount for someone's wedding in twenty twenty four?

Speaker 4 (46:10):
How much should we be spending on a wedding gift
in twenty twenty four? Also, i'd love to hear from
people if you've gotten married, or you've heard of a
story where the couple got given a huge wedding gift.

Speaker 1 (46:25):
Yeah, oh yeah, you know, yeah I got.

Speaker 4 (46:28):
Given something outrageous yeah, like a car, yeah, or like
ten thousand dollars an apartment, yeah, I mean huge shoot
for the stars?

Speaker 14 (46:38):
Right?

Speaker 1 (46:38):
Yeah? Why not? Okay, what are we doing? What's the
appropriate wedding gift?

Speaker 3 (46:41):
And twenty twenty four one hundred dollars at in or
text nine six ninety six. And if there's a bid
sponsor listening that wants to give Ella and her fiance
a new bid so that don't have to sleep and
diar grandma beds.

Speaker 1 (46:54):
That smells like red door perfume.

Speaker 9 (46:57):
For inclin.

Speaker 1 (46:58):
We all need to get on.

Speaker 4 (46:59):
The same Paige here, people, let's all get on the
same page.

Speaker 1 (47:02):
In twenty twenty four, we can all give the same amount. Obviously,
we accept that everybody is in a different financial situation.
Of course they are, and some people can give more
and some people can't really give anything at all. And
I hope that nobody thinks that that means they shouldn't
be able to go to a wedding that they're invited to.
But let's just figure out if you can, what's the amount?
What are we doing? Yeah, what are we doing. Let's

(47:23):
just unanimously decide what the number is. Let's talk to
Jordan first.

Speaker 3 (47:27):
Hi Jordan, Hi, Jordan, Hi. You have you got a
wedding coming up or have you had a wedding recently?

Speaker 13 (47:34):
We have one coming up in the summer.

Speaker 1 (47:36):
Okay, good to know you're capick for this. Then what
are you thinking, Jordan?

Speaker 4 (47:41):
What is the right amount that you're going to be
spending on the wedding gift?

Speaker 13 (47:45):
We've a suddenly just said that first and foremost, we
want you to be able to come. So if you're
traveling from overseas or traveling for another part of the country,
zero expectation all really, there isn't a huge expectation to
begin with. However, the way that we've kind of looked
at it, it is, well, how much would you spend
on the night out with your partner. We're really keen

(48:05):
for people to kind of give around that one hundred
and fifty dollars mark as it just helps cover the
cost of their food and the open bar. It actually
doesn't cost the price that cover the price per head
that we have for our revenue. But we just think
it's a really good middle ground. But also like the
most important thing is that we have people there to
celebrate with us.

Speaker 4 (48:27):
Don't want to help God, you sound like the nicest
bride in.

Speaker 1 (48:34):
The whole world. Do you sound thoughtful?

Speaker 4 (48:37):
Like? Did you hear her say that if people are
traveling or have to spend money, then they don't need
to buy a gift?

Speaker 1 (48:43):
Just so thoughtful. Not every bride is like you, Jordan?
Can I clarify before you go?

Speaker 3 (48:48):
You've been brave and put the first number out there
at one hundred and five hundred and fifty. Is that
per couple or per person?

Speaker 13 (48:54):
I'd say per plate? So per person it just covers,
you know, it just covers the food that you're going
to eat. It's so different than if you went out
to like a nice restaurant on a date or something.

Speaker 3 (49:04):
Right, So it's.

Speaker 13 (49:04):
Just trying to keep it even. It's trying to help
a little bit where you can.

Speaker 4 (49:08):
Okay, And is that I just want to clarify one
more thing. Is that going to be open bar?

Speaker 1 (49:12):
Jordan? Okay, you're not going to cut me off after
one hundred and fifty dollars.

Speaker 13 (49:19):
You can drink that.

Speaker 1 (49:21):
I will be drinking my white in Priscica. Brian I
will be there, Jordan. Thank you. Rene is here.

Speaker 3 (49:25):
Hi, Renee, I renee Hi. What's the situation with you?
Have you got a wedding on the way, Oh.

Speaker 7 (49:31):
We've had ours. We had ours in Fiji, so we
didn't expect anything because we.

Speaker 1 (49:38):
Were destination wedding. Did people Did anyone give you a
gift anyway?

Speaker 7 (49:43):
Oh? We got some photo frames and like some things
from Fiji, so it's totally nice because it was sent
me into from there. But before my husband and I
got married, where we went on a partial bit of
a world cruise. We were on it for like maybe
fourteen days or something, and most people can't afford that
because world cruises are like super expensive, looking like twenty

(50:06):
three thousand each.

Speaker 5 (50:07):
Like Purple Soul.

Speaker 7 (50:09):
And there was only one other young couple who had
been on it as well, and they were gifted We
found out that they got off, but they were gifted
it for their wedding. The entire world cruise with excursions everywhere,
so would have been like sixty thousand dollars.

Speaker 6 (50:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (50:25):
Did you ask them who gifted that to them?

Speaker 7 (50:28):
No? It became like the story on the cruise, everybody's
minds were blower. Yes, the young couple was just like, nah,
we've had enough, because there was like one little bit
going through I think the Golf of Mexico where you
just felt a little bit sea sick.

Speaker 3 (50:41):
Well, they got off, they'd had enough of their sixty
thousand dollars free cruise.

Speaker 7 (50:46):
Everybody on the ship apparently was like telling them like,
it's just a spirit, just hold on, it'll be fine,
and they're just like, no, had enough.

Speaker 4 (50:54):
Wow, that's a huge gift for a wedding gift. There's
a few more on here that a big gifts. Some
one said an old made of mine got a house
as a wedding gift.

Speaker 3 (51:02):
Yeah, they clarified they got the deposit for the house,
but it was like half half of the house as
a deposit.

Speaker 4 (51:09):
That's still pretty incredible. That's incredible. Someone else said I
had multiple people give me five hundred dollars for my wedding, sirck,
that's pretty amazing.

Speaker 3 (51:19):
We've got a text that said I got a seven
thousand dollars coffee machine from my parents, and bre said,
I'd rather have the seven thousand dollars cash.

Speaker 1 (51:27):
I really would. If someone's like, here's a seven thousand
dollars coffee machine. I'd be like, give me a nice
coffee machine, though, I'll buy myself an espresso and take
the cash. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (51:37):
That person also said I think the gift should match
the cost of the meal. We're getting that quite a bit.
I really like those texts that someone sent it. And they said,
at our wedding, we asked people to put their cards empty.

Speaker 1 (51:49):
In a container.

Speaker 3 (51:50):
So your congratulations cards, you put them on, nothing in
them in a container. And then we had another money
another container where you put your money if you wanted
to contribute it. Yeah, so nobody knew how much money
anybody had contributed, and they had no idea what money
came from.

Speaker 1 (52:06):
Hoo and they.

Speaker 3 (52:07):
Said, it's less pressure on people who can't afford it,
you know, because all the money goes into a big
slush fund.

Speaker 1 (52:12):
But it's the.

Speaker 4 (52:12):
Funnest part where you open the things and see who's
stingy and who's not. I'm just kidding, but seriously, I
sat with my sister and her husband and it was
so interesting, like I was like, read about read them out,
and then they went through and looked at all of
the cards and stuff.

Speaker 1 (52:29):
You got a pile of money beside them. His grandmother
gave them a thousand? Really, do Grandma win? I think
she might have been.

Speaker 3 (52:39):
You're doing a thousand, very generous, but I also feel
like you want to be crowned the most generous.

Speaker 1 (52:46):
You're looking for that time? Yeah, like you're definitely attaching
it to your card, absolutely, so everyone knows.

Speaker 3 (52:53):
If there was a separate card and money, well, and
I was giving a thousand dollars, i'd accidentally leave the.

Speaker 1 (52:58):
Money in the card. Same, Yeah I didn't. I already
dropped it in. That's the part two of the song. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Hopefully it's more fun and better to listen to than
part one.

Dusty you're Dusty, because last night you launched your new
book at a very fabulous drag.

Speaker 1 (57:23):
Bar on K Road. Shout out Kloozy Cabaret.

Speaker 3 (57:26):
Everybody was there, including your dad, farmer Big Steve.

Speaker 1 (57:31):
I thought it was.

Speaker 4 (57:32):
Going to be his first drag show, but last night
I found out that he said he went to one
forty years ago.

Speaker 1 (57:39):
Yes, Steve's got a past, and I don't know if
he was.

Speaker 4 (57:42):
In the drag forty years ago or if he was attending,
But anyway.

Speaker 3 (57:45):
I don't think it's a long shot to say Big
Steve was the manliest man at the drag show last night.
I think you spot on there except for maybe ketamine.
Oh yeah, takes a hell of a lot to wear
those heels. So we're going to get your dad, Big
Steve to review the drag show.

Speaker 1 (58:00):
We'd love to hear his thoughts.

Speaker 2 (58:01):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (58:04):
Countrymen from Rural Queensland reviews Kalosis Cabaret Drag Show next.

Speaker 3 (58:10):
Last night we attended Breeze book launch for her brand
new book Unapologetically Me.

Speaker 1 (58:16):
Yes, it came out yesterday.

Speaker 4 (58:17):
Please go and buy one right now online at any
good bookstores or go into the bookstore yourself.

Speaker 3 (58:23):
This is the week that matters a yes, but the
launch week is when they want to get all the
sales happening for the book.

Speaker 4 (58:28):
Yeah, I would love you to buy a copy if
you are in the position to do so, so that
would be great. Had a book launch last night. People
were call people were calling it the greatest book launch ever.

Speaker 3 (58:40):
But genuinely were Yeah. I mean, I haven't been to
a lot of book launches. I think I've been to three.
This is by far the best, by father best. It
was a fun night. I've never been to a book
launch at a cabaret club which was full of the
most amazing drag queens.

Speaker 4 (58:58):
Kalusi Cabaret if you've ever been there on k Road,
you would know how magical that place is.

Speaker 1 (59:05):
And I thought, if I'm going to.

Speaker 4 (59:07):
Have a book launch, that is the exact place I
want to do it.

Speaker 1 (59:10):
And it did not disappoint.

Speaker 3 (59:12):
Your whole family was all your parents were there, sorry,
including Big Steve, who joins us on the phone.

Speaker 1 (59:16):
Now, get a Big Steve, my Big Steve.

Speaker 5 (59:18):
Good guys. How are you?

Speaker 4 (59:21):
I'm a bit dusty still, Dad, I'm looking forward to
coming home.

Speaker 5 (59:25):
Oh okay, that's first question.

Speaker 1 (59:27):
Are you as hangover as bree as today?

Speaker 5 (59:30):
No, not at all. No, I was responsible. Someone has
to be.

Speaker 1 (59:34):
Yeah, clearly I wasn't.

Speaker 5 (59:37):
No, you were.

Speaker 3 (59:37):
Yeah, you got up and spoke wonderfully at Breeze book
launch yesterday. It was such a great night, wasn't it. It
was excellent.

Speaker 5 (59:44):
It was a terrific night. It was a night that
I I certainly didn't expect. I could tell you now,
I know where we were going. I thought we got there. Okay,
tell the truth.

Speaker 1 (59:56):
Dad thought that the book launch was on at city Hall.

Speaker 5 (01:00:00):
Well, next door neighbor was talking to me. He said,
where's the bookwords? I said, our city Hall.

Speaker 1 (01:00:09):
I mean that's the ultimate compiment he thinks your warrants
a state event. I know, Steve.

Speaker 3 (01:00:17):
The drag Queens were definitely a feature of the show
last night, and we thought we're christening you the manliest
man in the room last night, so we thought the
contrast would be excellent. Could you review the drag show
from Kloozy last night for us?

Speaker 5 (01:00:33):
Okay, the drag show was interesting, unexpectedly interesting to be office.
And when they when the drag queens when outside started dancing,
I thought they were running away to start its going
where are these people go to? What's going on?

Speaker 1 (01:00:53):
So look, because some of the performance happens out on
the street, it does they run out on the street
into oncoming traps. I think Steve thought they running away.

Speaker 5 (01:01:03):
I thought they were leaving. I've gone, oh, well that's it,
They're gone. So yeah, I haven't been to drag show.
That's the second time I've been to drag show. The
first time was about forty years ago and that was
by accident as well, and I think they've improved a
lot since that time, because I can remember it was horrendous.

Speaker 3 (01:01:22):
So yeah, what what a country Queensland drag show in
nineteen eighty four have been like, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:01:28):
I don't think the scene would have been great.

Speaker 5 (01:01:30):
Oh no, they were pretty like, Oh, I don't want
to be unkind to them, but they were.

Speaker 1 (01:01:35):
They were pretty average. Were you at the original Priscilla
Queen of the Desit Show, Steve?

Speaker 5 (01:01:40):
I'm not sure. I don't look. I sort of tried
to get that out of my memory bank because that
was pretty ordinary. But last night was very entertaining. I
can honestly say very entertaining. The jokes were quite amazing
and they're very quick with it, all of them. So yeah,
I was quite impressed, to be honest. Yes, what do you.

Speaker 1 (01:02:00):
Rate it out of ten? Kaluzi Cabaret Club.

Speaker 5 (01:02:04):
Well, I haven't got much to rated against, but I'd
have to give it a nine. I suppose ye, that's high.

Speaker 3 (01:02:12):
If we could have got if we could have got
Keta Mean to do the motor boat for you front
and back, would that have.

Speaker 1 (01:02:16):
Gone up to a ten?

Speaker 5 (01:02:18):
I saw that happening, I thought, I thank.

Speaker 4 (01:02:21):
Yeah that happened from that happened to Mattie McLain from there.

Speaker 1 (01:02:29):
Steve bloody good.

Speaker 3 (01:02:30):
I was great to see you last night, and thanks
for reviewing the Kalusi Drag Show for us.

Speaker 1 (01:02:34):
We really appreciate it. Thanks dad, thanks.

Speaker 5 (01:02:37):
Very much for having me there. I appreciate it.

Speaker 1 (01:02:39):
Who get out there?

Speaker 3 (01:02:42):
That's Bree's dad, Big Steve, which coincidentally would also be
a great drag name.

Speaker 1 (01:02:46):
Yeah, and that's us.

Speaker 3 (01:02:52):
That'll do for today's Brian Clint showed there are some
very tired, very hungover people who have done very well.

Speaker 1 (01:02:58):
Today to get through today's show. So I'm very tired.
Let them go home and lie down.

Speaker 4 (01:03:05):
I need to stay awake until at least eight thirty. Oh,
Celebrity Trees, you're Island Final. Because the Celebrity Treasure Island
Final is on. The producers are excited.

Speaker 1 (01:03:15):
Well, you don't. You don't need to say it to
