Not quite the words Kochie & Sam were expecting to hear Live this morning on Sunrise.

THE MOST AWKWARD AND HILARIOUS CASH COW EVER #SUN7 https://t.co/6DrvleFFvX
— Sunrise (@sunriseon7) June 2, 2016
Priceless moment this morning when Sunrise rang a viewer named Lynette in its Cash Cow segment only to hear her say “I wake up with Today” -the very same phrase used in Today‘s own cash giveaway.
“Get stuffed!” responded an unimpressed David Koch.
But Lynette, who advised she was watching Sunrise, appeared to be a little confused by the whole ordeal. Realising she had indeed won $20,000 for having answered the call, she was moved to tears and explained how it would help family hardship.
“Sorry for telling you to get stuffed,” Kochie conceded….

When Kochie said get stuffed he didnt do it in a mean way. They did laugh when she did say I wake up with Today.
But I do wonder how long these shows can just keep on dishing out the money. It does get a tad boring and repetitive.
I wake up with ABC Breakfast where I don’t need gimmicks to watch. Michael, Virginia and the crew all shine as decent, educated individuals! Classy all the way!
Classic Kochie, this is why he has it all over Karl… it was a natural reaction, and why wouldn’t you say that when someone mentions your rivals name, Today take many pot shots at Sunrise and have for years! He did apologise too when all is said and done!
It happened before a couple of years ago it’s really funny made for great tv and it was really nice of Kochie and the team to still give her the money ,nice touch .as for Kochie saying get stuffed it was in jest .some people have no sense of humour.
Comparing this to the last time this happened said it all. Sunrise has become so nasty.
I am guessing the lady needed $$$ and covered all her bases…
Cannot believe what Kochie and Sam said …on live TV….
I am rarely up that early…and if I am…I watch ABC Newa 24…
Ha ha, that happened a few years ago too. Kochie said we don’t care about that other mob that time.
It’s like that time someone rang up Quizmania to answer the question on The Up Late Game Show. The Quizmania host was confused as to why the caller kept saying “Karate Kid” over and over
So Kochie tells a poor woman caller to “Get Stuffed” ? Wow, what a big guy. Really classy Kochie. Or perhaps petulant and downright rude ? Another spoilt network star throwing his toys out of the playpen when someone says something he doesn’t like ? With the previously unbeatable Sunrise seriously under the hammer are cracks appearing that reveal the true nature of our loveable hosts?
There’s no excuse to belittle a viewer with none of the perks and good fortune you enjoy Kochie…remember the ride doesn’t last forever, and who will be crying when it all finally stops ?
Oh please! Lighten up. The woman told him to “get stuffed” back. It was a funny moment and I’m sure the lady is quite happy with her $20,000 and having a good laugh about it.
I don’t think she was saying it back, I think she was asking if that was what he said.
Which is why I always answer the phone with “KBBL is going to give me something stupid!”
All that money sounds mighty tempting – but I think I’m going to have to go with the elephant…
” The kid wants the elephant…”
” Don’t whisper into the mic ! “
Isn’t the purpose of these catchphrases uttered meant to ‘sabotage’ the rival show when incidents like this happen?
Only seems to sabotage Sunrise.
As others have said, it’s not the first time this has happened; eg youtube.com/watch?v=1hUNSCMZi9o and here’s a prev TVT article about another incident – http://tvtonight.com.au/2011/11/oops-sunrise-cash-cow-winner-i-wake-up-with-today.html
Gotta say that it was quite rude of Koch to tell the woman to get stuffed even if he did backtrack later when her personal circumstances became evident.
Well a smart strategy would be to enter both competitions for both shows. So each call is 50/50 guess!
indeed not the first its happened, however Kochie shouldnt have said Get Stuffed and Sam shouldn’t have said Do you have any taste at all
No sense of humour?
It’s not the first time this has happened. You had an article a few years ago when the same thing happened.
Oh dear, not the first time either! Quite funny tho. Maybe Sunrise need to consider having a phrase of their own to stop that happening.
Or Today could dump the stupid idea.
Today is jsut a cheap copy of sunrise all the same segments as sunrise they copy everything from sunrise even the travelling and the way the weather is presented the cash giveaways one has the cow the other has the box that box looks so ridiculous just more cringeworthy
