Welcome to the Christian O'Connell Show podcast.

Before we go into this weekend, and for many of us the long weekend, we want your nominations.

Genius of the Week.

What have you got up to this week?

Genius of the week.

I had my keys and a packet of chips in my hands.

Got in my car.

I put the keys between my legs and tried to start

my car with the packet of chips. I thought it'd be faster to boil an egg in the microwave

instead of on the stove top and she exploded in about 30 seconds flat all through the microwave.

I went to a horse show two hours away. I packed my float, got in the car, off I went,

I opened the tailgate, no horse.

I left the horse at home, so I had to backtrack two hours to go get my horse.

Every single one of them are goddamn genius.

This week, I don't think voice activated technology is quite where it thinks it is, all right?

When I'm in the car, I'm often yelling at Siri to create new note when I come up with some gobbety-gook idea.

And this week I started yelling at Spotify to play me some music, but it doesn't quite, Spotify doesn't quite, you have to ask Siri to do it.

Siri doesn't want to do it because it wants to give you that Apple music thing. Siri pretends that it doesn't know what Spotify is. I'm not sure what you're saying, Mopify or it just does nothing. The amount of times I'm in trouble just yelling, Siri! Siri! Siri! So yesterday I just started yelling at Spotify and I don't even have voice activate. So I was this in traffic at Red Light and Punt Row going, Spotify, Spotify, playing national. I wasn't listening to him. Of course, no, it doesn't work like that. So that's why I'm a genius, really. Belinda, not me, but my husband, genius week, came to pick me up from the airport, but went to Tullamarine instead of Avalon.

How many people in Melbourne have got one of those stories?

Two hours later, I landed, I got picked up.

Two hours after I landed, got picked up.

I even sent him a message that morning saying, don't forget to pick up your wifee.
