FULL: How Everyone Won Prizes Today (Should We Make Our Competitions Harder?)

0:00The Carrying Tommy podcast at Coles, Shop Scan Win is back in store and alive. Thank you for being brave, brave, brave, you. And if you threw a pot at it, and by not everyone knew, you would see the biggest gift would be for me. And the car attached for safe, thank you for being brave. I'm going to give this nice start. I'm going to give it to you. You'll hold up, stop, stop, stop, stop. It's the one and only. Carry Vickmore and Tommy Little. This is Carrying Tommy. Yes, yes, yes. Yes, welcome to a Friday afternoon big show today.

1:02Any show where you've got to guarantee $10,000 to give away is a pretty good one. Because, imagine you've won. Now, what are you spending $10,000 on? I actually know. What if it was $500,000? I'd help you buy your chopper. That's not enough money. How much do you need? I need my sun by plane. It's his birthday tomorrow. He's trying to become a pilot. That's good. That will make up for those years. You regrouped his tennis rack up and said it was a present. Imagine tomorrow I just rocked up for a plane for him. That what you're doing? Have you got him a plane? If I've got him a plane. Because then we shouldn't be talking about this. Everything now. And what ever you're giving, maybe if you give him something that's worth like $1,000, but I'm not a plane. Compared to a plane. What does it even fly? Let's pretend this conversation never happened. Have a birthday, my love. Sorry, sorry. I thought you're off by about eight months. You know what? I'll leave the other day. He was talking to me in the kitchen.

2:02He goes, babe. Are you talking to me? He was like, oh, sorry. Oh, my god. He's the reverse teacher. Oh, yeah. When you're at school and you're calling the teacher, mum. Although, if it was a reverse, he's called the teacher, babe. And then he goes, it's getting weird now. I'm not when he called you, babe. Speaking of mum. We've got an issue with my mum. Oh, let's talk about it. This is Carrie and Tommy. I've hit the age with my mum where texting her, like our communication is, she knows I'm busy. So she doesn't call me as much anymore. She went through a call all the time phase now. She's a text me. But she hasn't worked out how to tell me information without all of it seeming urgent. So, you're not going to call me a multi-face emoji all the time? I still use the melting emoji all the time. Our context with no reason. But her latest thing is just, can you call me? Now, once you get to 74, can you call me mean someone's died? No, it does. It does. If my mum's like, can you call me full-stop?

3:02Yeah. Someone's dead. It's either my aunt, my uncle, my grandpa, like they do. Yeah, actually. But they're already dead so they kind of died again. And I don't want to be, you know, do I want you to come over on the weekend for a cup of tea? That's not, can you call me full-stop? Yeah. And I actually was thinking about my mum and she will make a point if she tries to call me. She'll message me saying, hey, don't worry about calling back. We're just calling the chat. See? You're not at the point I'm at yet. Maybe she's not at the age where people are dying quickly, like often. Hang on. How would someone have died? If someone had died, mum would say, I'm not going to die. No, no, no, no, no one's died in this case. It's a good age where it could be anyone at any time. You know when you get to that age where it's just, it's really unfortunate. But lots of people are dying in your life, right? Yes, yes. Old. Where is your mum's, what, how old your mum? It's a good question. Do you not know how old your mum is? No, a lady never tells. Do you honestly not know how old your mum is? I know the ballpark.

4:02Like 60s or 70s. 70s. Yeah, early 70s. Mid 70s. I do because I had to get my birth certificate recently for my license. So yes, it's on paper somewhere. Yeah, I've got it filed. I've got it filed away somewhere. So I do have that information, just not at hand. It is funny. I do think you have your parents at a certain age and then they never really grow old. Do you know what I mean? Like I feel like there's a memory that happens. A core memory. It's either usually 50 or 60 and you just assume they're that age for a long time until suddenly you're like, my god, they're getting old. Well, it's also just milestones. Like I know my dad just had his eight years. So I know he's 80. Did he? Yeah. He must have been quite old when he had you. Yeah, because I was the accident for my brother's older. Because you're 41. Yes. So was he 39? Wow. I think that's probably other maths. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, don't you, V. You don't even know your mum's age. This is Carrie and Tommy.

5:03Carrie Bigmore and Tommy Little. Much like the main stages at the big day out of their two. No, I don't know how many there are in class. But there are two main bands when it comes to radio and we are on the FM. But we're not alone. And sometimes we like to dabble on the docks. Good morning. People. A million dollars. Just going to ask about digging on the dials with the man, the myth, the disappointment. Karen Simpson. It's the disappointment, himself. I thought you were going to say much like it. All the big festivals is a main stage. And then there's a little like small room around the side that you asked before. And you were going to describe Karen as that in the team. Yeah. It's really surprised with the way you took that. I'm sorry that I didn't do what you thought I was going to do. No, no, no. Don't talk back to the main stage.

6:03I'm so sorry. What's been happening on the AM? Oh, so much. Yeah. I was listening lucky enough to be driving around the other night at midnight, coming home from my partner's family's house and I just was midnight. Midnight. Midnight, yeah. We just stay there till midnight. We're for dinner and you know how you just kind of just get comfy in your parents' house and you just sit there for hours. You're in a house. Yeah, it's just comfy. I used to live there when I first moved here and I still feel like home to it. I think that's beautiful. It's very nice. I've never had that. And they're my actual parents. Oh my God. I've got a sit here. How long is it rude? Like when does rude Ticcovo and I can just leave? We both listen to a lot of AM. Wow. And often the best call topics are the ones that at first you hear it and you go, this is going to be no good and they're excellent. We ended up talking about it on this show. Where did you end up on a walk? Is one of the best call topics. What do you think? Who cares?

7:03And then you have people that end up in the most ridiculous of places. My favorite is when they're calling and the host knows who they are. Yes, they call in all the time. So it was Sunday night. This was Sunday night and Kenny called in. Kenny? Good morning. Kenny's gone to sleep. Kenny's gone to sleep. You were asleep, Kenny? No, I'm not asleep. So he's on his way. Oh, right. Kenny's there. It was a real heavy breath. It was a very dark, baby. It was very dark, baby. My mom, when she can't listen does put AM on like at 2 to 5 AM. That's what she loves to listen to. I can imagine the type of people listening. You mean, can't sleep, right? What did I say? When she can't listen. She puts AM on. She puts AM on. It sounds like the only time it's terrible. It's when she's deaf. No, it's also good when it's just open line. So Kenny's called for the open line. Oh, great. Where's the time? Anything you want. So Kenny's got a few gripes about something that's happening near him.

8:08Can you talk about the airport? You can talk about anything you want, my friend. I think I know Kenny. Do you? I do. When I used to work at this very station, I used to do like giveaways and stuff. And all the times that would be going to say, let's say a bunnings, for example, because a new shop's opening and we're handing out prizes and stuff. And I reckon this is Kenny from back then. You reckon? I reckon. Okay. Well, let's see, because what's exciting is Kenny wants to talk about the airports as you just heard. And where he lives, there's going to be a new airport. And they're going to build a new one. Would you be exciting? Why is it? Yeah. I mean, it's beautiful. It is. I know it's. It's just company for him in the middle of the night. It's also. This is good stuff. Like I just. You wouldn't turn off that. No, but also just. He should be paid. It's like that should be a double act. People have such nuanced views about things that sometimes when it's like, yo, there's an airport.

9:11That's a sick. Yeah. And I tell you what, playing, playing like, I feel like, you know, playing before you're now there, playing the sick, aren't I? Yeah. You know what? It's also good. When the new airport has something you've never seen before. Two story. A two story airport. Yeah. Yeah. It's going to be two stories. How do you make a two story airport? What do you mean? It's just a building. It's not two levels of runway. Oh, well, that's what I thought. That's what I thought. That's what I thought. That's what I thought. Until I went, oh, one's a rival with the party. How are they getting the planes and double the beach? Well, of course, no about the airport. You've got to have been to the airport. And you can imagine Kenny's probably been to the airport, but it's good to confirm that he knows what he's talking about. That'll be fun. Have you been out to the airport? The Perth airport Kenny? Yeah. Okay. And that was the end of the call, guys. A lot of stuff to talk about. I love Kenny. I'm here for Kenny. I love Kenny. I'm here for Kenny.

10:11More Kenny's the merrier. The more Kenny's the merrier. That's something I'm going to get. If you're listening Kenny, call up. 30 and 1060. This is Carrie and Tommy. Listen to Carrie and Tommy.

One of the world's great entertainers is back. Bruno Mars brings the romantic tour to Australia this February of March 20th, 27 with guest Tyler and Anderson Pack tickets are on sale now. I head to liveNation.com.au for tickets and info. This is Carrie and Tommy. So what I'm about to tell you, I think is both adorable and the stupidest thing I've ever seen. So I went to my local cafe, beautiful cafe, gorgeous family run business, just everything you want in your local neighborhood. And I walked in and the sun was on the coffee machine and the mom was kind of pottering around and said, hey, hey, go.

13:18Yeah, good, yeah, good. And then the mom came out and she picked up a vase and went and emptied the water from the vase of flowers. And the sun goes, oh my god, I've done it again. And I said, what's happened? And the sun goes, I didn't know, I didn't know those flowers were fake. And so I've been watering them and mums told me what they don't need water. In fact, they'll probably go moldy with water. Yeah, well, mums are like, oh, Jay, this is the third time I've told you. But I said, but hang on, how long were you watering the flowers before you knew they were fake? How long did you reckon? Because after he told me the amount of time, I went for how after that amount of time. Were they still alive? And also, I now realize what was happening was he was putting water in and she was tipping it out. And so he was thinking the flowers were drinking the water.

14:18And then he's like, the flowers need water again. And so the flowers are loading up and then drinking a little mother sun, like game going on. And the mom couldn't work out. She thought at first it was like maybe condensation. I mean, then she's like, no, someone is putting water in. So there was confusion from all sides. But before she has now told him and he's still just out of habit, filled them up another two more times. How long do you think you would see flowers alive for and you think, hang on, something's got to be up here. I reckon he's done it for a week. A week? No, longer. Two weeks. Longer. What? Longer. Why is no conversation happening between the mother and the son running this cafe? There's two weeks of filling and emptying this. Because I reckon they would have only got emptied every few weeks. And how long does he think let flowers live? So this is what I asked. And when I, and when he told the amount, he just goes, I ought to be honest, I was really impressed. And he goes, I've made a meant to note if I'm ever going to buy flowers, buy these ones.

15:18Because these ones last forever. He's not wrong. And he goes, and he goes, I couldn't understand why all the other ones in the shop were dying. And then these ones, he's like, that's why I made sure they had water in them whenever it would go down. A month. More. No way. Two months. For two years, he was full of cream for hours. Oh! And they were white as well. It was like a white... No, there's no way this man thought for two years those flowers were alive. Yeah, he did. He thought these white walk was were alive. That's... What? Is that not the cute one? But also, what patients does that mother have? At some point, I reckon after a week I would have gone, how is that guys? Anyone listen to it? No, but she's so... And because there is other flowers that are real kind of around it. Oh my God. I think it was only every so often that she'd notice and be like, oh God. He's put water in the body, fake flowers. Do you remember that hack years ago that I tried?

16:19Yes. Because I could never get my indoor plants to grow. You could do it on... So I got faking door plants, put them in a pot, but then put real dirt in. Yes. And then you'd occasionally water the real dirt. So it looked like they just had a dose of water. And they were fake green plants. Yes. It always looked lush. Yes. That's what you should buy him. I think you should... And then he can water them. Yeah, I know. Because he'd be like, now I have to water the fake one. Yeah. This is Carrie and Tommy. Carrie, Big Maw. And Tommy Little. I didn't not respect Mariah Carey. I've never had a disrespect for her. I've never had any sort of thoughts. Sure you have a respect for Mariah Carey. I'm not saying I... I guess that's what I'm saying. I never disrespect to do. But I was never like, oh my God Mariah Carey XYZ. Even when you met her. She was a diva. Oh, you mean when I met her? And she faced away from me to have a fucking... Yeah, the former Mariah X-Mariah. No, I just mean I've never been like, oh my God, she's my diva. Or I've never related. I've just always gone. Remarkable career. Amazing voice. That's Mariah Carey. Yep. So not even when she granted that, you...

17:19Didn't she grant a greeting? Wasn't that... Yeah, but... What should I have felt then? I think what... What a WebGuy Eli felt, which was like, oh my God, this is like peak Mariah. Yeah, because she's not even speaking to us. This is the best. Because he's a massive Mariah fan, right? I'm just a normal person that can appreciate her talent. But she has done something. In fact, she did it years ago and I just didn't know this little tidbit about what she's done. Tell me. That has brought me so much joy. So did you know? So she obviously got engaged to James Packer in 2016. Yeah. They dated for a few months, got engaged and then they broke up eight months later. And his net worth is $2.6 billion. And they were... Like, what's the word? Not separating some of their assets and stuff. Not long enough that they had to do a full divide, but bits and pieces, because they brought their life together. And she decided to sue him. And I did not know this. Did you know she sued him? She sued him for $50 million for being in inconvenience.

18:22How? How? How does this... I don't think I understand. She said she upgraded her life on her kids for the relationship and suffered disruption and expenses. And that then when it was done, she was like, well, this is bloody annoying. I've moved heaven and earth to be with you. And now we're not together anymore. You were a big fat inconvenience. So she was like, I'm going to sue him for making my entire family uproot when you were never... Like, obviously. I didn't even know you could do that. I didn't know you could do that either. That's what I'm saying. How? I know. I've got so many pains in the eye. That's right. That's right. How many people? They're all broke. So she wanted $50 million. She settled somewhere in the order of $5 to $10 million. And then she said, I also want to keep the $10 million in gauge ring, which is a real David's stuff, too. And I really like it. Anyway, I've got a new, newfound respect. Yeah. Like the idea that she just lodging court, it was a giant pain in my back side. And I want money for the inconvenience. Can you just sue anyone?

19:23A humoriae, probably. I think you can sue anyone. Or a true true true true true. Did she sue him? Or was this just part of their separation? No, she sued him. It says, no. Rather than a definitive court win the former couple then reached a private financial out of court settlement in 2017. So it says she sued him. So it's inconveniences a ground for suing. It's an inconvenience fee. I mean, it's not. It's an inconvenience. Isn't it? Yeah. See what I mean? Who we go on a halftop? Oh, so many people. The list that there's personal and there's also like business people, I would sign me in. Oh, when the doctor, when you go to the doctor and they're late, but you've booked an appointment for a certain time, and then they're running like half an hour or something like that. Incogninants. So whom? Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. You're not sold out. I'm pretty sure you're not trying to help people. And I get it. Yeah. You know, the practice is underserved. Yeah. And someone else probably would like that. But then don't keep taking the bookings if you can't fit the people in. You too can go to court on the line. I hope it will leave it out.

20:24This is Carrying Tommy. Listen to Carrying Tommy live on the listener app. Carrying Tommy pull out a text. Right number down. It's going to pop. Flex your. Listen to the typical ceremony on the paper. I'm going to give someone some cash to go into the weekend, because. Fiona. Play. Did a cash for the weekend. What would you do with it? End it. Yeah. Exactly what you do. Cash. Fiona. Yeah. Yeah. No, it's all good. It's all good. Fiona. What number do you want me to draw? Um. Five. Four. Five. Three. Okay. I'm going to use two of those numbers. Okay. Yep. Are you ready? I'm going to draw a number. And if you get it right, you win that cash amount. You ready to listen? Yep. What do you think Fiona?

21:24Three four five. Oh, Fiona, you just want three. I'm going to throw it back. Henry. Three four five. Oh, Fiona, you just want three other players back. Henry. I didn't have a clue. Oh, wow. You done very well. Hey, good luck doing what you hope to and spending money. Thank you very much. Best weekend. Bye. This is carrying Tommy. This is an exciting look into a world that a lot of people don't know exists. And it absolutely sets every bit of me alive. It involves smuggling. It involves exotic animals. It involves breaking the law. What more could you want? Monsters of God is available now on HBO Max. And joining us to talk all things monsters of God. Is there a good get a Eric? Hi, guys. What brought you to make monsters of God?

22:26I've always had a love affair with reptiles since I was a kid. And you know, I just was getting more and more involved as I got older in life. With reptile conservation and traveling the world. And yeah, and I just thought I would make a film about the reptile world, a documentary. And there was a book called The Lizard King that came out in 2008 that inspired me. And I started filming about 12 years ago seriously. And that ultimately turned into monsters of God. There were a few things that got in the way Tiger King and Jim Crazi. But I started out wanting to do a story about reptiles, not big cats. Where does the name monsters of God come from? You know, it has different meanings. I mean, of course, some reptiles are maybe monsters of God, like saltwater crocodiles. And other commoto dragons, other ferocious reptiles.

23:27But I think really were the monsters of God, human beings. And we do things under the guise of being God-like, because we like to put ourselves above all other animals. But we're really the monsters of God. It's very, it's a fascinating world to me. I think when I first watched Tiger King, which you also made, and you just mentioned, I didn't realize there was a whole industry of private citizens having exotic animals. And what a huge black market that was. You mentioned you're a conservationist. I imagine the treatment of these animals once they're in the hands of private citizens is not always the greatest. You must meet a lot of characters when you're making these shows that are really at odds with your personal values. Yeah, but, but you know, you want to figure out what makes people tick, you know, when they're not like you. And I always find, you know, you know, that there's just odd, strange people everywhere in the world.

24:33I'm sure you have them in Australia, you know, not just in the United States, to be fair. But yeah, you know, I like interesting, unusual, quirky people. And that's the animal world seems to be filled with them. So Hook has seen, tell us about some of the characters in this series and what they're smuggling. Well, they're smuggling a lot of Australian reptiles. You know, the very first bearded dragon that came to the United States was smuggled out of your country of Australia. Now they're everywhere in this country. Every kid has a baby bearded dragon or a bearded dragon. You know, blue tongue skinks, which come from Australia. Australia, by the way, is reptile, you know, it's a reptile enthusiast's dream or a pair of paradise. Thank you. You have all kinds of interesting pythons, diamond pythons, children's pythons.

25:36You have incredible lizards. You have thrilled dragons in Australia, pig nose turtles. So, you know, a lot of the smugglers target Australia because Australia has been a closed country. You know, you can't take animals out of Australia without special permits. Thank you for Australia. Thank you for doing that. And so if people listen to these and particularly if they have any it's in the trial for the show, how and they think themselves how does one smuggler reptile? How do people go about it? Well, you know, a blue tongue lizard, as you guys just mentioned, can easily be taped to your thigh, put down your pants, put in your luggage. You can you can you know hide things in your carry on. You know, people also use very elaborate techniques. They send them in fat acts boxes, you PS, they miss label things as something legal and it's not legal.

26:38There's all kinds of schemes to swagger reptiles. What is the most insane or disturbing thing you came across during filming this? Oh God, good question. I mean, it's it's it's surprising. What people will do and how far they'll go to smuggler reptiles, you know, bringing, you know, putting 10 snakes down your pants. You know, only for them to escape on the plane and then you've got to figure out how to find the snake on the plane. That actually happens. That's not a movie that happens. That actually happened and people, you know, bringing in commoto dragons for, you know, like, you know, a lizard that, you know, can kill a water buffalo. You know, it's bringing in venomous snakes that you just can't believe someone would possibly put it in their carry on. Is there a similar characteristic or personality type to the smugglers in all of them that you met or are they all from different walks of life and different motivations?

27:41I mean, there are differences. I don't want to totally generalize, but if I had to generalize, I'd say that the pathology of the reptile smuggler and collector is to be able to find the thing or the animal that is forbidden, the rarest of the rare, the most valuable, the, the animal that nobody else can have, you know, and so people are looking for the most. The biggest trophy, you know, it's like people that collect coins or art, they want the most expensive rarest painting in the world, a Picasso, a mateys, you know, the reptile collector is the same pathology, they want to find and get the forbidden, the unattainable, the rarest of the rare. I don't think exotic pets should exist, I don't think people should have the right to have them, but I also do understand from a person's point of view, if they go, I love this animal and I'm going to look after it, what's the problem?

28:49Is there a world where maybe it's not as black and white as I see it and people can, you know, not necessarily be doing something bad and own an exotic animal? That's a really good question. So in our country, we have crazy laws. So in this country where I live, everyone can have a gun, they can have a machine gun basically. I personally think that everyone shouldn't have a gun. We have more people killing each other in this country because you can just go out and buy a gun. So I think there are degrees as to which, you know, responsible laws should be in place for guns, you know, drugs, wildlife is included. So, you know, I think sometimes you shouldn't be able to have just everything you want, but I do think that kids that grow up with a pet bearded dragon or little ball python might turn that child later in life into being someone that really wants to give back and care about reptiles and care about nature and protect nature.

29:57So I think we shouldn't have a prohibition where no one can have anything, but would I say someone should have a commoto dragon or a very endangered reptile that's going extinct? I'd probably say no. Obviously, the films you've made feature real people and then they're thrust onto the world kind of stage and we end up knowing the name Joe exotic or around the world where we didn't before. We spoke to him on this show from prison and he didn't seem in a in a great way. No, I'm not saying that has anything to do with you, but I am interested after you finish a project. Are you able to let go of it or do the people from your projects stay with you in some sense or another? Of course they stay with me. I wouldn't be, you know, I have empathy for the people that I film and in the case of Joe exotic, I would love to try to get Joe out of prison. He's been in prison for nine years.

31:03I don't think he should rot in prison for the rest of his life personally. I think Tonya had X from Jim crazy, you know, she got busted a second time after we finished filming with another chimpanzee that she was harboring in her room. She was harboring in her basement and now she's doing four years in prison. You know, these people are their own worst enemy. Some people like to accuse me of somehow entraping them or somehow enticing them to keep these animals, which is absolutely not true. I tried to help Tonya, you know, the woman in chimpanzee after the show ended. I tried to give her really good advice. I really cared about her, but she wouldn't listen and she went and got another chimpanzee and she got busted. And now she's doing prison time. So yes, I care about the people that I interview and I really try to be fair. There were a lot of people that thought I wasn't fair and they learned later that, OK, you know, the woman in chimpanzee really did do those things since you went and did it again and again and she would have kept doing it.

32:05Eric, before we let you go, I was doing a bit of research on you and read that you used to own a nightclub in New York in the 80s. Tell me something fun that happened at that nightclub that stays with you all these decades later. Oh, wow. I met Olivia Newton-John. I think she's from Australia. Oh, I met many people from Australia and I met other famous people from around the world. I did a nightclub in the early 80s when I was young because I wanted to do something creative. And for me, that was a place where I can express my creative fantasies and ideas. It was less about running a nightclub and I had many artists at the time, Andy Warhol and Johnny Shell Baskat. And you know, many famous artists came and collaborated in the nightclub and many notable people from all over the world. And yeah, that was sort of the beginning of my career in New York City, which for most people think like a very unorthodox career path.

33:07To later end up making documentaries, but weirdly it connects and I won't go into that, but it connects in a way that you'd be surprised. I'm I have what many would consider quite cliche Tyson and Baskat is my favorite artist. Can you just tell me was he a dream of a human? He was a complex, difficult person at times. I he lived with my sister for three years. She's doing a book on Johnny Shell Baskat right now. I was with Johnny Shell the night he died from a heroin overdose. He was complicated and the addiction, you know, got worse and worse as time went on. But when you think, you know, he died at what I don't know how old he was 27 and he died in 1988, I believe. You know, in such a short life, he had such an impact, but you know, to be honest, you know, he was my favorite artist of all those young new artists and I used to do my birthday was Johnny Shell because his birthday was in late December as it was mine.

34:12So he used to do that together, but he was a difficult guy, but I, you know, he was a friend and I agree with you. I think he was one of the really brilliant artists that didn't go to art school that had no formal training and look at where he is today. People, you know, pay tens of millions of dollars for Johnny Shell painting. I believe you're within the 90 past away. That doesn't that's a lot that stays with you for life. I imagine something like that. That's horrible. I'm sorry to hear that. Yeah. I've heard a lot of stories over the years from various celebrities saying that it would always annoy them when any wall hole would turn up because you'd always have their camera and they none of them would want to be on the camera. Did you? No, I don't believe that. Go ahead. I was going to say, do you have any memories for your nightclub of warhold turning up with a camera and other celebrities then buggering off and leaving? Absolutely not. No, no, when any warhold showed up in New York, it validated the night. All the celebrities wanted to be around Andy Warhol.

35:19He was never obnoxious with his camera. He wasn't like a obnoxious paparazzi. He was very subtle. His camera was very small. He pull it up very selectively. He was not in your face with his camera with a flash. He was very discreet. So whoever told you that, I don't think that's really true. Andy was Andy Warhol was beloved in New York City. Eric, you've had a fascinating life and continue to make fascinating work. Monsters of God has evolved now in HBO Max. Thank you so much for taking the time. We really appreciate the chat. Thanks guys. This is Carrie and Tommy. Listen to Carrie and Tommy live on the listener app. Here are my Fridays. It's Carrie, big more and Tommy a little. Thanks to Cole's shop scan and win is back in store and online until the 22nd of September with more than 36,000 winners every week. Stand by your phone because in the next hour, we will be giving away $10,000 in Cole's cash. Yes, but up next because all the shows are doing it. They're all doing it. They're all getting these people involved with funny names and they're exposing intimate details of the people on their shows through music.

36:31We thought we would have a go. That's next. This is Carrie and Tommy. Our audio producer, the mount has walked in and he's wearing earplugs so he can only mean business, big more. You were here. You were here to show us your creative work because you found a copy of this new song on the block, the new AI song on the block that none of us had realized was AI. And it's just a little jingle about the judges. Shane of the storage queen. She the first one on the team. Shane is not the only one. What about our boy, Marty Farr? And when we heard that on this show, we thought maybe that's what we need a bit of. Just laziness and uninspiration. We got to answer that. But specifically set to music. Big time. And so we put you to work and by we putting you to work, we put you to work on AI putting it to work.

37:36Who did you use? Was Claude? Was a GP. It's called Sano. Sano. What's what's what's what's what's what he's done up to these? Sano is just doing music. It's just solo music. Okay. So would Sano have made that, which we've just heard on the block? Probably, yeah. Absolutely. And how much time and effort did this song you're about to bring to us about the Carrie and Tommy Show take you? To write it. Probably about 10 minutes. The rest was Sano. Sano, which was. But in how long? 30 seconds. What? Yeah. So how much of this have you created? Carrie, just a quick question. How did you think Sano went away and worked off so late? Because when you put a document together often on most Claude or whatever, I did one the other day and you type it away and it goes away and works on it for a second. And you sit there while it comes back to you. But like 30 seconds is. That's a bit. A bit. And to make a song, how much did you input in? Like what kind of rhythm you wanted? So this one was quick. So like I wrote it and then 30 seconds later I put in. I think it was like R&B, a bit of gospel and what else?

38:41Female singer. Yeah. And that's it. Okay. And then. I'm sorry. 30 seconds that came up with two different versions you could choose from. Okay. And then we got both versions here. I just want. So just the one you were most happy with. Yeah. This is the Carrie and Tommy showed new. Yeah, it's about the whole team I just put on there. Okay. Let's go. Carrie is the leader of the show as a journalist. She keeps us all in a know. A new haircut. It's made the comments grow. And Tommy is the funny boy has a rig like a GI Joe Toy. Here, making laugh with joy. Carrie is the boss from the UK. He likes to live by the play. People managing all the way. Sam looks like the guy from out the banks from Netflix. A goofy leader and swimmer. His concussion glasses make Kim simmer. Jesse is sexy. And then with all the buttons he will make the show function. We also have Tim. And then we have Sarah and everyone's favorite Darcy. Once again, you could have paid a person to sing this.

39:42Just doing normal voiceover to make something better than this shit. That's really good. I really good. I don't know whether to thank you or Sonno. I wrote it. Sonno did nothing else. That was just. Sonno made it sound pretty. Sonno did the... Yeah. I'm not a heavy lifting from Sonno. I can tell the exact point you were tired of writing it. When you went with also got Tim and Sarah. I thought you guys want to hear anymore. This is Carrie and Tommy. Carrie Bigmore and Tommy Little. He's the land of Tosh. It is land of football. And it is... Did they invent the fashionable toy? Let's find out. A fashionable toy. Well, invented in London. So I think... A water closet. I think a water closet. I thought for all these years it was invented by someone called Thomas Krapper. And then I looked it up recently because someone said that can't be true. And I don't think it's true. Kizzy.

40:42Oh. Out just found out. So John Harrington, who is British, invented it. But this is blown my mind. Did you know that Ajax cleaning thing is called Ajax because that was the name of the device that became the flushable toilet. It's called Ajax. What was? What device? What is it? A flushable toilet. It was the first call. Should we have a bit of ball jacks? Ajax. But not the Ajax that you wash. No. That's what it is now. Yeah. What is it that it's named off? Who done invented... Mr. Ajax. Mr. Ajax. Sir John Harrington. So where did Thomas Krapper come in? Don't know. Oh, look at that. I think that's a joke, isn't it? I don't think so. He was an English plumber. He put... Falsely quantity within that. You see, I've been told... I've been told lie. Yeah, you haven't been told. You've been told. Yes, your accent's going because today's London calling is a Beckham Special. Oh, that's his sign. Some will say the royal family. Some will say the royal family. Some would say that. At the Beckenham Palace, that's what they called it. Yeah, that's very good. Very funny. I don't know if you...

41:43Did you watch the David Beckham documentary? I know Victoria had one but it was. Yes, I watched the David Beckham. And so we were in the garden with David. What's the whole... Yes. ...Bend it like David. He wishes. Emma. There's a bit of like Beckham II coming there, do you know that? I think it's after my biggest fettest, greatest wedding. See you soon. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. We've been back in the garden this week with the Fettka's Instagram and it's very good stuff. So there's a new vegetable. What is that? Why is it? It is a pumpkin. I've never seen one that's shaped. I do not know what I don't even know what to say. There are so many things to say, but wow, look at that. Is that lady talking posh? Yes, it's posh and I saw this. This not look like a pumpkin. It looks like male genitalia. It's the weirdest thing that is how you're genitalia looks, man. You should get it checked out because it is a hard L shape. That is a little bit. But if they want to have a garden. Oh, that's not what I put you going to say after.

42:46No, I watched the whole little thing. He then goes to show his spring onions, which are actually leeks. He got it confused. It all looks like, and the tomatoes. I think I need to grow a veggie patch. I don't think you can grow any of these things in the UK either, by the way. But what? I think he's got a temperature controlled little place. All you need to do is so easy, because I've seen how passionate he is about his gardening. All you need to do is to be a billionaire and never have to work. And then get, or just get a gardener. I think he's tending to the garden. Well, you know, unless the documentary stuff I've seen is a lie, I think he spends all day in the garden. He does. I think he does. He does. I'll be there for a couple of minutes. But then he co-pooks. He's got an amazing kitchen and he loves cooking. Oh, I love him more now. The other piece of Beckham news I had was a big congratulations to Victoria Beckham because after how many years do you think as her business turned a profit for the first time?

43:47Has it not been making money? No. What's her business again? Victoria Beckham fashion. Is it intimate? No, like a cool fashion line, like jeans and like outfits. Oh, it's finally turned a profit. So these are sometimes hard these things because the company might not turn a profit, but she'll be taking a director's wage where she gets, you know, I take my, after I take my 10 million a year, you won't believe it. The company's running a bit of a loss. Well, she founded the company in 2008 and this year it's made its first ever profit with 7.3 million pounds, about 15 million dollars. Oh. She said they said, Shall we buy this for a very long time for the moment of profit, for profitability? 20 years is a long time. So, really? Come at me that more time. Well, profitability ever.

Yeah. Anyway, her Instagram is now dropped Cyrus. And her 10,000 is about to be released on September 18. It's called base persuade. Oh, I thought we were banking on it being called Miley. Is that not what we were banking on? It's not called Miley. Yes, we thought it was going to be a self-tied around which is what for 10,000. Anyway, she has shared the news and given a bit of a taste of what sort of music this new album will be.

52:02No lyrics. So it's one without lyrics. Not a whole album. No, it really takes a full foot off the gas on this one. I'll do it on this one.
