Radio presenter trolled by callers answering ‘India’ is eye-wateringly good
For those of you who haven’t heard this – and even if you have, it rewards repeated listening – some radio gold from Australia where the presenter was swarmed by prank callers to his quiz show.
Have a listen to this. It just gets better, and better, and better.
It’s not so much the callers – well, it is – as much as the reactions of the presenter, a guy called Graeme Gilbert.
By the way how many of you in the room tonight?
Go away and play with your little boys and toys
Didn’t think you were that dumb but clearly I was wrong
Thomas, it’s bedtime now off you go
Marcus, grow up
Wasn’t even clever, mate
Eve, don’t fall for their silly games, okay? you’re much too nice
if you gong to give yourself away by lauding please don’t waste our time, no-one thinks your clever
they’re too going to get their cake this time are they?
Mary, it’s bed time
Please, no more
Oh, Lois I thought you’d grown out of that
You need an education don’t you?
Make that the last time you phone a radio station, Harry
Good luck with your education, at least they manage to string a few words together they’ve been in drama school
We do get bored with these people don’t we?
Barry’s there with the giggles he’s in the same room
If it’s going to be like this shall we cancel the quiz right here?
Stuart? You’re as silly as them
I think he’s one of those down there who came back with two heads
Clarke I do hope you grow up soon
It’s not going to be that sort of night is it?
If you’re going to try and do a comedy act, you’ve got to keep a straight face
if anyone else wants to say India it’s not the answer, don’t ruin it for people who actually want to play
I thought you had a bit more maturity I really did
Tomorrow night we’ll do the quiz at a different time, that will upset them
Michael, you call us back when you mature a little bit
Please, only if you want to play the quiz …
The obvious solution was for him to come up with a question to which the correct answer actually was ‘India’ but we don’t know if he ever did.
Here’s the backstory to how it all started.
“India”
