Speaker 1

Radio. You know, we like to play the weird shit we hear on radio between the host and caller. So today we're talking about the good old radio quiz okay.

Speaker 2

Which I do on my show, A quiz on radio. If you're not in the industry, because we are in radio, it is it's just.

Speaker 1

Man's blaying quizzes to people who aren't in radio. We know a quiz is.

Speaker 2

No, but every radio show does a quiz. Jones and to man to do a quiz, don't seven mag seven. I do the last quiz of the.

Speaker 1

Day, and sometimes they make it hard because there's a lot of money on the line, are a big prize, but sometimes they're super easy because it's like the prize is nothing major.

Speaker 3

Right, correct, correct?

Speaker 1

But I think you'll find even easy quizzes people stuff up. Okay, So first I'm going to show you on my face. This happened on two C eight, you know, the old people music station.

Speaker 4

In Sydney, Love it It.

Speaker 1

This caller was trying to win. I think it was a CD nothing major, and they clearly had no one else lined up because he really persisted with this one woman who got stuck on a very simple question.

Speaker 5

Here he's twenty minutes plus five o'clock in these two c h Ian Rogerson here with you on a very sunny Tuesday afternoon, and Jane Trupman joins us, how are you, Gene.

Speaker 1

I'm very well, Thank you, low Jane.

Speaker 5

I want to give you some CDs and all I need to do is for you to answer a question that's going to be, of course, in the thousand dollars.

Speaker 4

Minute tomorrow morning.

Speaker 6

Right.

Speaker 4

Which is the nearest star to Earth? Now?

Speaker 1

Now just interrupting for is that you guys know the answer? The nearest star to Earth?

Speaker 3

He is the Sun.

Speaker 1

There we go, okay. I was just making sure that it was obvious to everyone. It's the Sun. It's the one you can freaking see all.

Speaker 3

Yeah, that's just the biggest thing.

Speaker 1

No, it wasn't obvious, Jean.

Speaker 4

Now think about it, Jane. Which is the nearest star to Earth?

Speaker 2

The Moon?

Speaker 4

A star, star star? Think about it. It's it's up there.

Speaker 3

I can see it right now.

Speaker 4

Yeah. Yeah, what are you thinking to be?

Speaker 5

It's it's it's very warm that star that's keeping us warm at the moment, Jean.

Speaker 4

Not a star, not a planet. We're looking at it right now.

Speaker 5

It rise, it rises, in the morning and sets in the evening.

Speaker 1

Are the evening Star.

Speaker 4

No, we're not going to get to give up the sun.

Speaker 6

Oh there you are tonight.

Speaker 4

You have genius, certainly have. I'm going to send you a CD.

Speaker 2

All right, thank you very much.

Speaker 4

Okay, have a great har.

Speaker 3

You should get surprised for getting it wrong.

Speaker 1

I know she's still got the prize even though she said the moon the evening the evening Star just made that up.

Speaker 3

Hold.

Speaker 2

But you know what, when you're on air, when you're live, the pressure is different. You freaking out as in the caller, not as the host. The callers freak out like there's no tomorrow. The amount of callers I get, they get staged, right. They're great off the air when I'm prepping them and are you ready for the Queens? Oh, they're pumped, but you can get them on air? Oh my god, they crumble.

Speaker 1

What happens do they? Is it just the knowledge that it's live and the stage. Whatever they say.

Speaker 3

Is to wear.

Speaker 2

Also, they're talking to the host, not as much with me, but when you have Kyle Jackie oh, or you're talking to a Jones in Amanda or a big table or Mitch and Mitch they go to peace, they just melt. I see Sam's finger quivering over the button.

Speaker 3

Now I really like you guys, exactly right.

Speaker 7

There was one call on Jonesy and Amanda and the question was something about name an Australian city something something something, and they kept giving clues and then Jones was like, please just name any city. She couldn't name a city.

Speaker 3

Oh you're kidding.

Speaker 1

Oh God, God, lover her. She's like Brenda Barroling. It starts making things up like you.

Speaker 7

She's like brain freeze.

Speaker 2

I'm doing a quiz on my show currently, Little Marsex are sponsoring the show out in Sony Music.

Speaker 1

Speaker 3

Very sweet. And we're doing Little Muck. We're doing a little ars x y Z, which is a spelling bee.

Speaker 2

And I thought, I'm going to trick the first ever person and I'm going to make the first word tiger.

Speaker 3

So the first word was tiger.

Speaker 2

But I said to them, you have one question you can ask me, and one question only in the spelling bee, and that is to use it in a sentence. Use your lifelines wisely, Jenna good evening, spell tiger, all right, t I g E wrong.

Speaker 1

Next call hoology in a sentence.

Speaker 3

Oh glad you asked my favorite rapper is Tiger?

Speaker 4

Are you bitch? You know that?

Speaker 1

Jenna Mitch called me the other night and he goes, what should I what's the word I can use for this spelling bee? I called you and I said anti disestablishmentarianism, and he goes, that's too hard. But you fucked someone over with the wrong time.

Speaker 3

It was for five hundred bucks.

Speaker 1

Too, poor thing, God lover.

Speaker 7

I want to what she was thinking.
