The ZM Podcast Network. The best bits. I feel like there's a lot of different ways to get someone's number these days. You know, people get creative. Remember that guy that got those business cards printed when the song by Carly Rae Jepsen was big? Yes. Remember that? What did he say on them?

I think the card was something, because obviously the song was Call Me Maybe. Yeah. It was something like, hey, here's my number, his phone number. Yeah. So call me maybe or something like that. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. And he would hand them out.

It's a little cute, right? You know, it's a bit cute. I wonder, because you and I have been out of the dating game for a while. Yes. Are you still exchanging phone numbers? I think not as often. Or are you adding each other on LinkedIn?

Yeah, LinkedIn is the most common platform. But you know what I mean. Wouldn't you just get in the DMs? Isn't that the way to go? I don't know. I don't know. It's very foreign to me. I reckon when it gets a little bit more serious, you still get someone's number. But not on like a night out. So you can add them as your emergency contact at the gym.

Exactly. Yeah, right. Yeah. I saw a story where this girl shared the creative and kind of messed up thing that this guy did to get her number at a party. Okay. So she, bit of context around the story, she locked eyes with this guy at a Starbucks. Right. Right. And he was kind of staring at her a bit and she was like, do I know that guy?

Like, he's not saying anything to me. Yeah. And then that afternoon, she's went to a party and this guy is at the party. Turns out he was friends with one of her friends. Freaky, yeah. Right? Okay.

So she's already seen him at Starbucks. She's now seen him at the party and I'll let her tell the rest of the story. I start having a conversation with him. And then my friend leans over and he goes, oh yeah, he can't hear. So he takes out his phone and he shows me the little add contact thing. And he types in his notes, add your phone number so we can communicate this way. And then he texts me and he says, you have such an amazing smile.

I was like, oh, that's so sweet. Then all decided that we were going to go to a house party. Then I decide to not go to the house party. And I go to a different party. And I walk into this different party and guess who's talking to all these people in this room fine so i go up and i go oh hey how are you so this boy starts immediately apologizing saying that he's so sorry for pretending to be deaf because and i quote it was an easy and smooth way to get my phone number

because he was shy. That's so messed up. There's no long-term thinking in that. Eventually she's going to find out you're not deaf, bro. Like, what are you going to do when, you know, it's like two years into the relationship and he's like, I can't keep this up anymore. I remember one New Year's I pretended to be Irish.

Just to try and make myself more interesting Going, let's hear the accent No way Nah, let's hear the accent No way, no way Well, if you pretended all night, the accent must be pretty good That was like 15 years ago Yeah, go on

One sentence And it can't involve potatoes Okay, alright Or top of the morning Hey Bree Oh my god And it can't involve potatoes? Okay, alright. Or top of the morning? Hey Bree. Oh my god! The best bits of ZM's Brie and Clint.

Hey, breaking news, not breaking, came out last week. Whitaker's putting up the price of their chocolate bars. This is the post they put on social media. I'm going to do this in my best Nigella Lawson voice. Hello chocolate lovers. Oh my god. We wanted you to be the first to know That from Monday we will unfortunately Be bringing in a price increase

Our costs have steadily increased Due to the rise Over the last year And cutting those costs With lesser quality ingredients Is never an option for Whittakers As we hope you'll understand Thank you for your wonderful

continued support. We promise to keep making world-class chocolate right here in Porirua. Which I agree, they do make the best chocolate in the country, if not the world. I haven't had better chocolate. But a price increase is a price increase and we need to know how much that price increase is.

So we're going to cross live to our chocolate correspondent standing by at the confectionery aisle of our local New World. Come in, producer Ella. Ella, are you there? Yeah, I'm there. Hi. You're in the chocolate aisle? Yep, I'm in the chocolate aisle and yeah, wow. Yeah, wow. That's all I can say. Hi. You're in the chocolate aisle? Yep, I'm in the chocolate aisle.

And yeah, wow. Yeah, wow. That's all I can say. A lot to choose from. Oh, okay, that's a precursor. Now, Brodie's got some experience in live crosses and sort of journalism. So I want you to imagine you are Brodie Kane and give it to us as a news cross, like the price increase as a news cross. So Brodie's going to cross to you now and then you can take it away.

Okay, okay. Here we go, here we go. Crossing now live to get the latest developments, Ella is down at New World Victoria Street. Ella, what's the latest? Yes, thank you Brodie. Yes, I'm here in New World and I'm looking at the chocolate right now and it looks to be

quite a shock surprise. They've said it's going up and all I can see is a sale. $5.29, a super saver. Sale on a Whittaker's chocolate. Me and myself and I are gobsmacked. Wow, that is a scoop, Ella. Nobody else has that. The price is going up and you found it on special.

Yeah, $5.29. Isn't that cheaper than usual? Yeah, it's definitely, yeah. Okay, so here's a funny thing. I love, though, Clint, that you sent Ella all the way to the supermarket when I've just gone online to New World. Oh, that's a really good idea.

And what's, yeah, it's a super saver, but I've just done a little bit of research for everyone because I'm like, you've got the fair go reporter here. Yeah. $5.29 at New World. It's $5.19 at Pack and Save. Yeah.

$5.50 at Countdown. Jeez. Okay. Well, you know where to go to get your deals at the moment. Yeah.

Are you going to get some for us? Yeah. Which one do you want? I'll take the coconut one and if you could get some of that new Hazella as well,

I'd appreciate that. I've never tried that. A bit of those? And maybe some chippies. And Claude, do you want anything I'll take the coconut one. And if you could get some of that new hazella as well, I'd appreciate that. I've never tried that. A bit of those. And maybe some chippies. And Claude, do you want anything while she's down there? I'll have a Whittaker's too. Can I have a macadamia one, please? Yeah.

And can you grab a rotisserie chicken as well? I've got to take dinner home tonight. No, I'm vegan. I can't do that. No, it's not for you. It's for me. Thank you, Ella. We didn't solve anything.

We've got no idea what the price increase was. That was actually utterly pointless because we didn't know what the price was beforehand. Ella, are you keen to go back to New World again tomorrow and check the price? Sure. Just get some hot ham too with the hot chuck, please. I want to talk about Batman because... Sorry, that was awkwardly timed.

The new Batman film, it's called The Batman, starring Robert Pattinson in his first role as Batman, is coming out next month, I believe. Right. I'm quite excited for this. Me too. I've gone from being like, is he going to be good to,

yeah, I think he's going to be good to, yeah, I think he's going to be pretty good. Yeah. There's been little bits and pieces leaked here and there. And then, uh, recently, uh,

a trailer has been dropped where you get to hear quite a lot of Robert Pattinson's Batman voice. The bat voice is very important. So important. You know, it's everything. It's everything. Well,

it's almost everything. The bat suit is also very important. Yeah, and the Batmobile. I think they're going more grungy and more scaled back than the Christian Bale Batman. Definitely more than the Batfleck Batman. Yeah. But yeah, cool. I want to hear a bit of this.

Yeah, so we've got the trailer here. This is what Robert Pattinson sounds like as Batman. Fear is a tool. They think I'm hiding in the shadows. Watching. Waiting to strike. But I am the shadows. Oh, I love Gooseys.

Gooseys. I like it. I thought we could give it a bit of a go ourselves this afternoon. Our bat voice. Best bat voice. I think it's about emotion slash evil slash power slash all different stuff. It's not evil. He's a force for good.

It's darkness. It's not evil. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Same thing. Not evil. Do you want to go first? Do you want me to go first? Well, we've got a judge here.

Sam's here. Hi, Sam. G'day, Sam. G'day, guys. First of all, just to gauge your qualification, who is the greatest Batman so far, according to you? So far, well, mine's a bit of a, not a common pick. Not a lot of people remember this,

but do you guys remember the animated show from the 90s? Oh, yeah, okay. You're definitely a Batman aficionado. You're a massive Batman fan. You're qualified, okay? You're qualified. We're going to do Batman, and you're going to tell us who does the 90s. Oh yeah, okay. You're definitely a Batman aficionado. You're a massive Batman fan. You're qualified. We're going to do Batman and you're going to tell us who does the best one. Is there a script to go by or is it just going to remember it? There is a script. Anastasia is bringing your script in right now. It's just that little part that we heard in the trailer that we'll be giving a crack.

Okay, cool. Are you ready? Yes. Okay, here comes my Batman. Oh, getting into character already. Okay. When you're ready. Fear is a tool. They think I... Oh, my music's gone. Hang on.

That's important, yeah. Fear is a tool. They think I'm hiding in the shadows, watching, waiting to strike. But I am the shadows What do you think Sam? It's not awful Yeah I thought so Not awful

I'll take that I haven't practiced So now I'm worried Brie was laughing The whole way through It was good But it was Like Gollum was definitely

In there a little bit a little bit smegalish I believe no Brie you can send it I love it well get ready

to hear Batman crossed with Kath and Kim okay ready fear is a tool they think

I'm hiding in the shadows Watching Waiting Oh, he stuffed that bit up. Waiting Waiting to strike But I am

The shadows You sound like a pervert hiding in a bush. Sounds like I've had a pack a day for about a month. Sorry, sorry. Wait, wait, I've got one. No, no, no. No, no, no. No, one go each.

No, one go each. Sam, what's your review? My review? Okay. Yeah, Brie, you definitely do sound like you chain smoke just a touch. But that's not necessarily a quality that Batman can't have. And Clint, you definitely sound like you're gargling marbles a wee bit. But at the same time, nothing wrong with that.

You've got to give us a winner. You've got to give us a winner, Sam. Who is it? I mean, I feel like it's easier for dudes to do it. Is it sexist if I say that Clint wins? No, it's not. You pick who you thought was the best. Do I win?

Yeah. I'd say so, yeah. Yes. Thank you so much. I mean, thank you so much. I should have done my sexy Batman. No, I think you started with sexy Batman. Fear is a tool.

Brian Clint, if you want to go and see that trailer, the new Robert Pattinson Batman trailer is out now for The Batman. I was working on Breakfast this morning. Yes. And one of our newsreader was away doing some other work this morning. So we had to get a film. And we got Chris Chang. Yeah.

Brilliant newsreader. Love Chris Chang. Yeah, does a bit of sport, does a bit of weather. He's a jack of all trades. But one of his most unique talents are his impersonations of people. Yes. And there's one in particular that he does so,

so well. You were telling me about this and I thought we have to get him on. So please welcome to the show this afternoon TVNZ's Chris Chang. Hi Chris. What an honour. Hi, Chris. What an honour. What an honour. My day just gets better and better.

First breakfast, now this. Changy. What a treat. You're like Jeremy Wells. You're double ending the day. Exactly. Yeah. You're everywhere. We can't get enough of you.

I was telling Clint about your incredible impersonation. Well, you actually do quite a few. Mm. But there's one... Yeah, I've got a few in the repertoire, yeah. Who else do you do? Oh, obviously, you know, I do like myself a bit of JC, a bit of John Campbell.

As I've told John before, I only ever do, you know, people that I like. It's a sign of respect, shall we say. Yeah, yeah, yeah. A term of endearment. Okay, well, let's start with John Campbell. Can we's a sign of respect, shall we say. Yeah, yeah, yeah. A term of endearment. Okay, well, let's start with John Campbell. Can we get a bit of John Campbell?

Boy, Clint, you're a really lovely man, aren't you? Aren't you, Clint? Do you know one of my claims to fame is that John Campbell once referred to me as a remarkable New Zealander? I love that. He called me a remarkable young New Zealander. Yeah, yeah. I love that. He called me a remarkable young New Zealander. Yeah. Yeah.

You really are. Oh, that is spot on, Chris. It's so good. That is very, very good. It's so good. But can we please hear the impression that around TVNZ you have become most famous for six o'clock weather presenter Dan Corbett.

Yeah, it's not a bad looking day. Have a look outside the windows. You might pull back the curtain and, ew, yucky. You're starting off with that high pressure. It's almost like you put it in the washing machine. It's spinning around. Here comes the low pressure. Vroom.

After that, it's not too bad a looking day. That's your weather for now. Wow! That is phenomenal. It's so good. Please tell me when you're doing that impersonation, you're standing with your legs, and I say this with love, your legs slightly too far apart as well?

Yeah, yeah, it's definitely the power stance. It's just getting Mother Nature ready. Vroom, then she's ready. Wow. Let's put an open cast and call out this afternoon, inspired by TVNZ's Chris Chang, for impressions and impersonations. Who do you do a really

good version of? If you're willing to share it with us this afternoon, we'd love to hear it on 0800DIALS.com. No judgement? No. Well, a little bit of judgement. We're kind of like X Factor judges in this situation. Totally. We'll tell you if it's good or bad. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because maybe we do it so that we don't know who their impression is of. Oh, I like that. And we have to

guess whether we know who it is or not. Then you'll know if it's good or not. If we can pick it. Go on, give it a go. Give us a call now on 0800-DARLS-AT-M and sling us your best impersonation and we'll see if it's up there with Chris Chang's. Thanks Chris, good to talk to you. It's good to talk to you guys.

Thanks John Campbell, see you soon. See you buddy
