The Christian O’Connell Show

A new Trump Tower has been announced to be built on the Gold Coast, so we think it's only fair that we build something BIG and Australian over in America.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It’s 3 Word Week, we dive back into your dusty VHS collections and explore Australia’s roadside icons in Loose History: Big Things. Plus, What Are The Odds and Timewasters goes full Tradie Songs! Big laughs. Big calls. Even bigger bananas. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Christian O'Connell and the team dive into the weird and wonderful world of Australia's giant roadside attractions. From the Big Scotsman to the Big Pineapple, they explore the country's obsession with building massive, often bizarre, structures. They discuss the history behind these giant landmarks, including the Big Banana and the Big Lobster, and how they've become a staple of Australian culture. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Christian O'Connell and the team dive into the latest news, discussing Trump's plans to build a mega tower in Australia. They poke fun at the idea, imagining what kind of people would want to see a golden Trump tower on the Gold Coast. The team wonders if Trump will use Australian or American labor for the project, and if it'll be a giant wall instead. They also discuss the current tallest building in Australia, the Q1, and how a new Trump tower might compare. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The red mic light is stuck on… permanently. So today’s show is being held together with duct tape. It’s Monday Winners & Losers, Things That Make You Go Grrr & we played Baby Boomer movies in Timewasters. Plus, Christian’s glasses actually broke mid show after Patsy had just been celebrating her new ones.  All that, and somehow we stayed on air. Duct tape really does fix everything.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Here's an update from the Christian O'Connell Show. Christian's Cabana, a beach cabana, has been on a wild adventure across Australia, courtesy of the show's listeners. From Melbourne to the Gold Coast, Sydney, and Adelaide, the cabana has been passed from listener to listener, with each one helping it move forward. Now, it's on its way to Perth, where it's been passed to a random listener, John, who's driving it across the country. Christian's excited to see what the people of Perth have in store for the cabana's final destination.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
