41
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:58,640
Speaker 4: joy and giving and generosity, so many things. It's a

42
00:01:58,640 --> 00:02:00,920
Speaker 4: weekend quite I'm like the other, isn't it? As you

43
00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:02,920
Speaker 4: will know from being part of many.

44
00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:06,400
Speaker 1: Of them over the years, that yeah, it takes much

45
00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:08,799
Speaker 1: of the year to put it all together to there's

46
00:02:08,800 --> 00:02:12,320
Speaker 1: a huge team that doesn't it does? At what point

47
00:02:12,360 --> 00:02:13,000
Speaker 1: do YouTube in.

48
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:19,519
Speaker 4: Going on? Yeah, that's the weekend. As you know, the

49
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,520
Speaker 4: team is. You know, they are busy all year round,

50
00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:25,760
Speaker 4: obviously preparing for this weekend, but also so many other

51
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:29,000
Speaker 4: initiatives that actually go through you know, the other three

52
00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:31,639
Speaker 4: hundred and sixty three odd days of the year. So

53
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:36,000
Speaker 4: it's a phenomenal effort and the team that works really

54
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,560
Speaker 4: do an incredible job over the year. But of course

55
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:42,480
Speaker 4: this is this is pressure time then, because no one

56
00:02:42,520 --> 00:02:45,440
Speaker 4: wants to be the team that doesn't be last year's titles.

57
00:02:46,520 --> 00:02:49,040
Speaker 2: You know, I remember the first time it clicked over

58
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:51,240
Speaker 2: to one million last year.

59
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:55,160
Speaker 3: Last year eighty three point three million, and we say

60
00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:58,400
Speaker 3: it every year, how how could you possibly break the

61
00:02:58,440 --> 00:03:02,560
Speaker 3: record again? No one expects, you know, to go above

62
00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:03,959
Speaker 3: eighty three point three million.

63
00:03:05,080 --> 00:03:07,560
Speaker 4: It's incredible, isn't it. But that's got to be the

64
00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:11,400
Speaker 4: target this year. And look, yeah, we just have to

65
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:15,919
Speaker 4: hope that people give generously on the weekends and help

66
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,440
Speaker 4: us get there, because every year there are more and

67
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:23,240
Speaker 4: more beneficiaries coming on board with Telephone who didn't get

68
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,160
Speaker 4: the funding to go and deliver the incredible services, you know,

69
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:29,560
Speaker 4: do the amazing research and all the other initiatives.

70
00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,080
Speaker 1: That are part of Telothon and so many the rest

71
00:03:32,120 --> 00:03:34,760
Speaker 1: of the year. Yeah, and there's so many ways that

72
00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 1: people can do it too. I mean, even Bunny, you know,

73
00:03:36,480 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 1: if everyone goes to Bunning's on the weekend. You know

74
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 1: they're doing the barbecue eight till four. One hundred percent

75
00:03:43,240 --> 00:03:46,280
Speaker 1: of the proceeds from every Yeah, the full snag is

76
00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:47,119
Speaker 1: going to telethon.

77
00:03:48,840 --> 00:03:50,840
Speaker 4: Yeah it's great. Is that if you needed another excuse

78
00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:57,440
Speaker 4: to go four times in the one weekend? Everything the

79
00:03:57,440 --> 00:03:58,680
Speaker 4: first time around, you.

80
00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:00,280
Speaker 2: Well, no, it never gets everything they need to last

81
00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:01,200
Speaker 2: time the first time.

82
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 4: The ranking, of course.

83
00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,080
Speaker 2: Who's coming, who's coming to town?

84
00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:10,240
Speaker 1: Who are the big stars?

85
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 4: Look a lot of the usual suspects. So we're going

86
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:17,080
Speaker 4: to have home away people, people from from the back Bar,
