Telstra : "The Emperor Nasi Goreng"

  • Summary

  • This week you can eavesdrop as Tones manages to insult our Tokyo correspondent (who also happens to be Mrs Tones), drops in a reference to expensive 1970s British furniture, and humble-brags his way through turning down a night on the slops with that bloke from Maroon 5 and sitting next to Daman Albarn at a pissup in Hong Kong. 

    Steve puts on his favourite cocktail dress to act as the quizmaster for some questions about the winners of the 2005 MTV Australia music video awards, leading to some painfully bad audio as two middle-aged blokes try unsuccessfully to remember the lyrics to Hollaback Girl...and Tony has a bit of a thrombo as he recalls the joy of dealing with Australia’s leading telecoms company. Oh, and an extinct cartoon bird pops up as an example of what is carefully described as the ‘retail’ nature of Australian advertising.

    All this and much, much less as we welcome you back to the WA Salvage of podcasts about old advertising with a look at a Telstra TV commercial from 2005 pushing the telco giant’s BigPond internet service offering. Have a look at the ad in question here...https://youtu.be/Rh3Eu2NtG_U

    Have a listen and I think you’ll agree…we aren’t fancy but we really are cheap.
