The transcript captures the live broadcast of the $10,000 Music Challenge finale on 95.9 Virgin Radio Montreal, hosted by Freeway and Natasha. Three contestants—Angie (Laval), Mona (St. Hubert), and Lindsay (Beaconsfield)—compete by identifying song titles and artists from short audio clips. The hosts explain the rules, conduct a random draw for order, and keep score in real time. Mona scores 26 correct answers, Lindsay 25, and Angie ultimately surpasses them with 27, winning the $10,000 cash prize. Throughout the segment, the hosts and contestants exchange banter, express nervousness and excitement, and react to the scores. The segment also highlights the sponsor, Dr. Ari Benchetrit and the Cosmetica Clinic, and concludes with Angie describing how she plans to spend the winnings on a new sofa, a trip to Amsterdam, shopping, and a family dinner.

Angie, but you were on a streak because a lot of people couldn't beat you, and then all of a sudden Mona and Lindsay come on in, and now we are all tied. So how are you feeling about that?
Really nervous because after the first week I was like, okay, guaranteed I'm gonna win this, right? And then the week— the next week came and I'm like, oh no.
