Starting point is 00:06:00 I think I've discovered a power move. I think I've found... Not flushing. Not flushing? Nah, that's discovered a power move. I think I've found... Not flushing. Not flushing? Nah, that's just a dog move. Not flushing is a dog move. Isn't it? Yeah, that's what I was going to say.
Starting point is 00:06:14 I'm not a cat. I'm not marking my territory by not flushing the toilet. You know? Yeah. You know? What is your power? I love a power move. I think the power move,
Starting point is 00:06:23 and this is how you assert authority and dominance at all times, and also keep yourself prepared for everything. I have changed and I'm now a cash guy. I now pay for things with cash. I've gone back. I hope you're not going to Hamilton Island on the coast of Australia anytime soon. Why?
Starting point is 00:06:42 They've banned cash. Have they? It's like, well, they are going completely cashless. Nah, they're on the wrong side of history. What are they doing? No, I think they might be on the right side. I tried to buy a bottle of water today at the swimming pools where my daughters have swimming lessons.
Starting point is 00:06:58 FBoss machine kept going transmission error, transmission error. And I went, you know what? Actually, this is a great time to bring in my new way of living. I'll just pay cash. You should have seen the look on the lady's face when I pulled out cash. What'd she say? She was like, oh, no, no, we'll get it going. We'll get it going. I was like, no, no, I'll just pay cash. And I did. I gave her $10. Yeah, she hated you.
Starting point is 00:07:19 She gave me $5.50 in change. She absolutely despised you. Now I've got to annoyingly carry around this 50 cent coin, but that's not the point. That's not the point. Do you know when... Why are you doing that? You know people are going to hate you for this.
Starting point is 00:07:31 Do you know when cash is a real power move? What? When you have exact change. And it happened to me yesterday. I paid for my lunch, which was $10, with a $10 note. I handed them a $10 note, transaction done. No PIN number, no waiting, no processing, nothing.
Starting point is 00:07:46 Give them $10, walk away. Power move. You know people say that once you have kids, it happens quickly. What? And it happens swiftly. What? Like where you completely just go full dad mode.
Starting point is 00:08:03 And you can't help it. There's nothing you can do about it. I understand it's out of your control. But honestly... You're not even entertaining the idea. You know the only other person that this is reminding me of right now is my father. Smart man.
Starting point is 00:08:17 Who keeps hundreds in his wallet. Smart man. He keeps like $300 in his wallet. Because one day the internet's going to go down. And you know why that's dumb? He's going to be fine. You know why that's dumb? He's going to be fine. You know why that's dumb? Why?
Starting point is 00:08:27 Because every time I see him, I know for a fact he's going to have a crisp $100 bill in his wallet. Yeah. And every single time I say, Dad, can I borrow a hundy? Oh, right. Every time. Right, I see what you're saying. Without fail. I see what you're saying.
Starting point is 00:08:41 He will have a crisp $100 note in his wallet. But the money that he's probably saving on transaction fees, because you know how you try and do the pay wave and they put the 2.5% surcharge on there? By the time it rolls around, should we save that $100? You can just insert your card. Who's got time for that? Insert my card.
Starting point is 00:09:00 Mate, you're going to the ATM to get the money out at some point. No, let's get it out with the groceries. Mate, if you want to the ATM to get the money out at some point. Nah, let's get it out with the groceries. Mate, if you want to go full cash. You're not even giving it a chance. Nah, go for it, I say. I think it makes you more mindful of the money that you have too because you're like, oh, I wonder how much money's in my bank account. Let's buy
Starting point is 00:09:18 the sandwich and find out. Ding! It worked. I must be fine. I can literally look in my wallet and see that I have not much money. I mean, it is a bit of a COVID spreader, but if you're not worried about that. Oh, get rekt. Get rekt. Why do you think they stopped cash for a long time during COVID? Yeah, they stopped a lot of things during COVID, okay?
Starting point is 00:09:38 Yeah. We're back, okay? You can also kiss your partner again. You can kiss strangers again. Wait, you were kissing strangers? No, that's not my point. That's not what I'm trying to make. I hope not.
Starting point is 00:09:46 Cash, 9696. Who's with me? Who's with me? There'll be some. Text me. There'll be some. Text in. Let us know.
Starting point is 00:09:54 Are you still rocking all cash? Yeah. No card. Anyway, if you're a business, get that float ready because we're coming. Oh, the float. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:06 Us cashies, we're back. While we're at it Oh, the float. Yeah. Us cashies, we're back. While we're at it, let's bring back checks. Yeah, no paper trail. Yeah. Great for illegal transactions. Free and Clint. Oh, we got a lot of text messages from people who like using cash. People don't want to get rid of the cash. Oh my God. Some of the conspiracy theorists have come out too. Do
Starting point is 00:10:21 not conform to a cashless society. People need more cash. Yeah, that's right. The banks are coming for you. They hate you. Someone said, when I buy stuff with cash, my mind tells me that that thing is free. Because it doesn't feel real.
Starting point is 00:10:35 Paying with money doesn't feel real to that person. Oh, I thought it would be real. Yeah. When you're handing over something. But I guess because it's in your wallet and it's not in your bank account, you're like, oh, this isn't money that I've accounted for. What, like Monopoly? I guess.
Starting point is 00:10:48 I feel like it's the other way. When I pay with my card, I'm like, that's free. Someone else said, my dad only has cash and he constantly cannot purchase stuff. He literally had to leave Domino's the other day. He says, if cash and postage stamps are legal tender, then it's illegal
Starting point is 00:11:04 to refuse a legal tender. He is so embarrassing. I don't think my dad has an EF postcard. He doesn't have one? I don't think so. Wow. He is old school. Well, he's a farmer.
Starting point is 00:11:17 Yeah. He didn't know how to use an ATM. I think the first time he used an ATM was like a couple of years ago. Yeah, you were saying. Yeah, he'd always go into the bank, go to a teller, get the money out and he would just hide money in his sock drawer. Just stick it around. And in the Bible.
Starting point is 00:11:32 I'd always steal it from the Bible. And one more text, they said, I love playing with, paying with cash. I love watching all the Gen Z's unsure on how much change to give. One of them said to me, I was three cents short the other day. Three cents short.
Starting point is 00:11:48 Oh, no. Anyway, speaking of Gen Z, there's this study out today that is getting quite a lot of attention, which says that Gen Zs no longer care about table manners, that they're not a thing, they're not important. Or do they never care? No, they've never cared about table manners. Okay.
Starting point is 00:12:05 Table manners are for old people, and according to the study, they don't think that they're important. When we say table manners, I feel like I'm the type, I think some are important and some are irrelevant. I think the same. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:20 But they have got a list here of the table manners. Before we do that, we'll just ask our Gen Z Ella, are you big on table manners? Get your feet off the table. Yeah, well, I won't do that. You animal. It's tapu. It's tapu, bro.
Starting point is 00:12:32 I mean, elbows on the table, I don't care. I'll burp. You'll burp at the table? No, no, no. Okay. That's rude. I don't do that. I do sometimes rock back on my chair, you know,
Starting point is 00:12:43 when the legs are up. Oh, nah. You need a smack bottom, girl. I do. You back on my chair, you know, when the legs are up. Oh, no. You need a smack bottom, girl. You need a smack bottom. According to this study. Don't buzz me out on that. Okay, Dad. I'm buzzing you out.
Starting point is 00:12:54 No. Any more and you get a smack bottom. Oh, he just buzzed himself out, Ella. There you go. According to this new study, 60% of people aged between 12 and 27, which are Gen Zs, believe that traditional table manners are no longer relevant, and more than a third have admitted to using their phones at the table.
Starting point is 00:13:13 No. Everyone uses their phone at the table. You wouldn't dare use the phone at the table at your parents' house. No, probably not. If you're having dinner with your mum and dad, you wouldn't dare have your phone out. But I never see them, so I'm very aware, so I don't have my phone a lot when I'm at home. Really?
Starting point is 00:13:30 Yeah. But at home, at your house, if you're having dinner with your partner? Oh, we'd probably be on our phones. Also, would you be at the table or would you be on the couch? Look, we're a couch kind of family. Yeah, I know, right? Yeah, we eat food in front of the TV. And the poll was done by CensoredSplit.
Starting point is 00:13:45 It says more than three quarters said that not having elbows on the table is outdated nonsense. I've got to admit, I never understood the elbows on the table. I don't understand why that's rude. Yeah, I don't get that one. Is it because people back in the day had scabby elbows and it was unhygienic? Or you were dirty, maybe. Oh. If you're dirty and you've got your elbows on the table.
Starting point is 00:14:05 You've got your dirty elbows on the table. Is that what it is? Then that's kind of rude. More than half admitted to not caring which way around they hold their knife and fork, which is an issue for me because I don't know which way to hold my knife and fork. But I don't do it out of...
Starting point is 00:14:18 Yeah, you're really showing your Rotorua roots. I know, I know. When you have your knife and fork in the wrong hand. Yeah, but apparently that's something that Gen Z are not concerned about. I mean, I'm not particularly concerned about it either, but Gen Z in particular. I don't care. That's fine.
Starting point is 00:14:35 Is that true for you, Ella, Gen Z? Yeah. What are some of the other, what's some other table manners? Asking to be excused. Oh, that one's so dumb. I can go toilet. I don't need to announce. Can to be excused. Oh, that one's so dumb. I can go toilet. I don't need to announce. Can I be excused, please?
Starting point is 00:14:49 Who do you ask to? Yeah, exactly. The cook. What about eating with your mouth open? Oh, no, that's a no. Loud chewing. Loud chewing, that's rude. Yeah, no, no, no, that is yuck.
Starting point is 00:14:59 Licking your plate. I do that. Licking your knife. Wait, you lick your plate at the dinner table? I lick my plate and my knife all the time. If it's yummy. I'm a knife licker. I like to wipe my finger around the plate and then lick my finger.
Starting point is 00:15:13 You know what my partner hates when I do? I always pick up my bowl if I'm drinking and I'll drink the last bit of my soup. Remind me never to come to your house for dinner. Oh, mate, it's a bloody farmhouse at my place. Well, there you go. Table manners out the window. Bree and Clint. ZM, Bree and Clint. That's Eminem and Rihanna. You guys just
Starting point is 00:15:33 missed a really funny thing that happened off air where Clint was talking to Claudia but as you were saying something you were trying to hold it and sneeze so it sounded like this. Hey. Well, I was under time pressure too because the song was ending and I needed a bit of audio.
Starting point is 00:15:53 It was so good. Here's a fun fact. You can't beat a sneeze. You can't. You can't. It's going to beat you every time. It's going to beat you every single time. Yep.
Starting point is 00:16:02 Just let it go. From iHeartRadio, this is The Latest. God, everyone's talking about Jojo Siwa, aren't they? Aren't they? Her alter ego's come out. She's gone into pop music. She said she invented gay pop. I mean, the internet is a light.
Starting point is 00:16:20 Didn't she say she wants to be the first Disney star to transition into adult music? Mate, where have you been? light. Didn't she say she wants to be the first Disney star to transition into adult music? Mate, where have you been? You can't be the first. There's like 11 million others. She looks like Gene Simmons from Kiss as well. Yeah, she did wear quite a Larry outfit on the red carpet. Which is cool.
Starting point is 00:16:39 Which is awesome. Her new song Karma. People, look. Love it. You either love it or you really hate it. Karma the bitch, I should have known better. If I had a wish, I would have never. Look, I'm not going to lie.
Starting point is 00:16:59 It does get stuck in your head. I actually don't think it's the worst song. I don't think it's going to win a Grammy, but I don't think it's... So, the rumours are that it was a Miley Cyrus reject song from back in the 2010s. Yeah, sounds like it. That never made it to one of Miley's albums. But anyway,
Starting point is 00:17:15 everyone's talking about Jojo Siwa and... It's got real fly on the wall vibes about it, eh? It does. It does. She was asked at the GLAAD Media Awards last month what was the most expensive thing that she was wearing. Okay. And she
Starting point is 00:17:31 actually replied with, my teeth. Oh! And then she went on to talk about how she is super insecure about a lot of things and her teeth was one of them and she underwent a procedure where she spent around 80 000 new zealand dollars on her teeth to get veneers um and she said that's just
Starting point is 00:17:54 one of the things i've tried to change about myself veneers are not cheap i didn't realize you could go 80 grand on them i guess you can spend it you can spend as much as you want yeah yeah kanye had his whole bottom row of teeth replaced with diamonds. That's right. Yeah, I imagine that was more than 80 grand. I'd say it was. Smart move, really. Smart move. Look at him now.
Starting point is 00:18:15 I don't know if I'd want to swallow a diamond though. Then you have to go through. No, you don't want to swallow a diamond. No, but if you've got teeth. When's the last time you swallowed a tooth? I don't want to swallow a diamond. No, but if you've got teeth. When's the last time you swallowed a tooth? I don't know. It can happen. Yeah, you're right.
Starting point is 00:18:28 It can happen. But I reckon swallowing a tooth and swallowing a diamond would have the same effect. You'd just poop it out. Yeah, but I don't want to find my tooth. You'd love to poop diamonds, though. Would be great. Yeah. Put me under enough pressure and I will.
Starting point is 00:18:41 Yeah. Oh, it's catchy. Yeah. It's going to hit your head. Yeah, there you go. She spent over 80K on her veneers. Bree and Clint. Bree and Clint.
Starting point is 00:18:57 Yesterday, Bree and I entered into a very silly little bet around an old bottle of V. It's on Trade Me at the moment and it says it's an original recipe unopened bottle of V from 2009. Bree and I have agreed to a bet of $1,000 where I believe if it is unopened that it'll still be
Starting point is 00:19:20 fizzy. From 2009 you say it will still be fizzy. I say there's it will still be fizzy. I say there's no way it will be flat. It is a plastic bottle of V. It's not a can. It's also not one of the glass bottles of V. The current bid for this bottle
Starting point is 00:19:36 of V is only $21. I'm sure it'll blow up if we talk about it on the radio enough, which is probably stupid, but anyway, $21. It's affordable for this bet. Bree's willing to spend a lot of money on it to win this bet. Well, I just think if I spend, you know, however much, under $1,000, I'm going to make money. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:54 Well, that is confidence. That's confidence. You know? So if we're going to commit to this bet, we need to ask some questions. So please welcome the current owner and the person selling the bottle of V from 2009, Palmerston North's very own Mandy. Hi, Mandy.
Starting point is 00:20:13 Hi. Look, I've got $1,000 riding on this, Mandy. Should we just call it a day? How much do you want for it? Well, there is a little bit of confusion there, though. When I put the ad on Trade Me, you're meant to think back to 2009. Yeah. So when you're, like, hiding things from your parents.
Starting point is 00:20:32 I don't know when the bonding was made, but it has not expired. So it's not from 2009. No, you're meant to think back to 2009. Ah, I see. You were, like, hiding things from your parents. Mandy. The whole point in it was to... Oh, let're meant to think back to when you were like, Heidi, think of your parents. Mandy. The whole point in it was to, the recipe changed and a lot of people don't like the new recipe.
Starting point is 00:20:51 So when is this bottle from? I should have brought it to work with me today. It's still valid until the 27th of April this year, which is the expiry date. Oh, so it's still there. It's not old at all. V changed the recipe last year. Right.
Starting point is 00:21:10 Oh, that changes everything. Mandy, I thought it was a bottle of V from 2009. No, you mean to look to think back. It was like when I'd done the whole trade me ad, it was a bit of fun and something to cheer me up. You're right. It's 2009. You've just got home from school and you have one of these bad boys in your bag
Starting point is 00:21:27 and you're trying to hide it from your parents. I was trying to be funny. That's our mistake, Mandy. We've misread the ad. That's all right. That was funny from you. No, no, no. It was funny from you and it was lost.
Starting point is 00:21:39 I've just realised this is good. Bet still stands for me. I'm still in. I reckon this V's still fizzy. $1,000? $1,000. Mate, we're going to find a fizzy can from 2009 and we're still going to go through with this same bet.
Starting point is 00:21:54 It won't be this bottle because this is from last year. Yeah, okay. All right, Mandy. No worries. Oh, Mandy. Where did you get, just out of interest, where did you get a bottle of Original Recipe V from? Pack and Save don't rotate some of their stock lately.
Starting point is 00:22:11 Really? Is that where you picked it up? Yes. And how did you know it was Original Recipe? The labels and stuff, they're all different. Oh, they've changed. They changed the labels when they changed the recipe. The labels and everything are all changed.
Starting point is 00:22:23 They changed the lids on them. They changed everything. Are you quite the V connoisse and everything are all changed. They changed the lids on them. They changed everything. Are you quite the V connoisseur, are you Mandy? I really was, yes. I even compared the recipe of the new one to the old one to find out what the difference was and how much sugar and stuff was different. Does it taste that much different to you, the new one?
Starting point is 00:22:38 Yes, it does. Yeah, interesting. V's the only energy drink I've ever loved. Yeah, and now I don't love it anymore. Oh. Mandy, you know what? People change. You grow and sometimes you have to go your separate ways. You need to grow with your favourite drink.
Starting point is 00:22:54 Yeah, but no, I just didn't like it anymore. It was far too sweet. Mandy, why are you selling this original recipe, V, though? Don't you want to cherish maybe one of the last times you're ever going to taste it? It was a bit of fun because I just,
Starting point is 00:23:10 like what was going through my head was when there was a whole like Marmite shortage and people were going crazy. Yeah, yeah. When Milo changed the recipe. How many of these original recipes did you find at Pack and Save Palmerston North and how many did you buy?
Starting point is 00:23:25 I found seven and I brought all of them. Yes, Mandy. Smart woman. All right. Well, if you're interested in an original recipe V, turns out not 15 years old,
Starting point is 00:23:34 which is probably a good thing because it's not even expired. Just type in original recipe V into Trade Me and you'll find Mandy's listing. Good luck, Mandy. Good luck. All right.
Starting point is 00:23:43 Thank you. Sweet ass. Brian Clint. I like that. It's weird. Good luck, Mandy. Good luck. Thank you. Sweet as. I like that. It's weird. It's Artemis. It's called I Like The Way You Kiss Me. I like that. It's weird. It's different. It's weird. It stands out.
Starting point is 00:23:57 A few people are jumping on this bet that you and I have got going. Some people because the bet is I say a carbonated drink from 2009 would be flat, would have no fizz. You say that it would still be fizzy. We've made a $1,000 bet. Yeah, but the bottle of V that we were betting on is no longer appropriate, so that's gone. Yes, so now we need to find... We need a replacement beverage.
Starting point is 00:24:24 Yes, a few people have come to the table. Someone said I have an unopened can of Stein Lager from before the Rugby World Cup in 2011. It's been in my beer fridge. They won't let us open that.
Starting point is 00:24:39 They won't let us open that. Someone else said... I have that same can. I gave it to my dad. It's unopened. We won't be opening open that. Someone else said... I have that same can. I gave it to my dad. It's unopened. We won't be opening it. Why not? No, that's a bit... You can still keep the can.
Starting point is 00:24:50 No. We just use it for a bit. Then it's got even more sentimental value. No, it's in a special wooden box and everything. Someone else said, I have a can of Coke from 2011. See, I made the bet on a bottle. Is that important to you? That's important.
Starting point is 00:25:04 To be honest, I think either or. If it's from 2009, either or is going to be flat. 2011 is two years newer, so you're happy with a 13-year-old Coke? Yeah, it'll still be flat. So if we can get our hands on that 13-year-old can of Coke, the bet stands. Yeah, why not? I'm so excited as if I have $1,000 to lose. And when, can we just clarify?
Starting point is 00:25:26 Yeah. Because I'm now changing the terms. The parameters, yeah. When, and I mean it needs to still be fizzy. Yes. Like when you drink it. Okay. There has to be fizz in it.
Starting point is 00:25:39 Because my original. Because that to me is fizzy. Okay. Because I was going when we open it, it needs to go. Nah, but that could. I've got the original going when we open it, it needs to go psh. Nah, but that could. I've got the original audio of the bit. Do you want to hear it?
Starting point is 00:25:50 And I know we can change it. No, but this is where we're changing. Okay. Because that's what I'm thinking. It needs to taste fizzy. Like it can be slightly fizzy. Like it doesn't need to be like full fizz, but it needs to have some fizz in it. We need an impartial judge.
Starting point is 00:26:02 Who would be the judge? Someone said, I'll be home in 15. I reckon it'd be flat as a pancake. Champagne is all right for 50 years though. No, it's not. I've had flat champagne. I have. That's like five years old.
Starting point is 00:26:15 The cork goes bad. Yeah, I reckon can, bottle, it's going to be flat. Here you go. The answer from chat GPT is it's unlikely. Carbonated beverages like coke tend to lose their fizziness over time especially if the can has been sitting for many years it's best to check for signs of damage or leakage before considering consuming it almonds who minds says unlikely but doesn't say definitely not i know i'm willing to make the $1,000 a bit. How fizzy and who judges it?
Starting point is 00:26:46 Yeah, we need an impartial judge. Yeah. Like neither of you or I can drink it. No, and we need someone with an educated palate. Yes. We'd find that. We can find that person. Let's find the person and get them to commit to it.
Starting point is 00:26:59 Yeah. And then we'll shake on it. Let's find the drink, find the person, and then we'll commit to it. It needs to have a taste of fizz. Yes. Yeah. It needs to be noticeably fizzy. It doesn't need to be 100% fizzy. No, but it needs to have some fizz. Noticeably. I reckon it
Starting point is 00:27:13 will be flat as. I reckon that's a good bet. $4,000. Yeah, let's find it. God, I just got a whole lot richer. Let's find the product. There can be no damage on the product, by the way. No. No. No. But it needs to be no damage on the product, by the way. No. No. No. But it needs to be from like 2009, 2010, somewhere around there.
Starting point is 00:27:29 2011. 2011. Yeah. Okay. All right. Someone said get the nano chick. Oh, nano girl. She will know.
Starting point is 00:27:39 She'd nail it. Yeah. Bree and Clint. All right, let's play. Do you feel lucky? Well, do you? It's time for Bree and Clint Alright, let's play Do you feel lucky? Well, do ya? It's time for Bree and Clint's Google Down Punk Alright, saddle up, strap in

Yeehaw! It's usually just really between Claudia and myself. Gosh, I'm good today. On fire. The toxicity in this room.
Starting point is 00:28:13 It's banter. Oh, you're so dramatic. Toxic masculinity coming from Ella. Do you... Ella's fuming. Excuse me? She's going to lose it at you. She will.
Starting point is 00:28:23 I've been saying it for weeks. She will. What do you mean? She does. What do you mean? Alright, shut up you two. Here's the rules. I'm ready to listen Bree. Ella physically hits me. What are the rules Bree? Claudia, I've put these exact questions into Google. All you need to do is put those
Starting point is 00:28:40 questions in and yell out the first answer that comes up. If you're correct, I'll give you a point. First to three wins. You are playing for people at home, so this is serious. I take it very seriously. 50 KFC chicken dollars. Are we ready? I'm ready. Question number one. What was the number one song on June 8th 2009? Boom Boom Pow, Black Eyed Peas.
Starting point is 00:29:06 What was that again? Boom Boom Pow, Black Eyed Peas. Boom Boom Pow. I got the speed wobbles while I was talking. Boom Boom Pow. It was like happening in real time. That's so funny. That was auto-tuned.

Starting point is 00:29:28 No, no, no. Or as Clint said, boom, boom, pow. Gotta get that. Gotta get that. Boom, boom, pow. All right. Question number two. One to clearly.
Starting point is 00:29:39 Who invented nail polish? Norman Warren. I can't separate them. I'm going to give them both a point. You know it was in like 1911. Yeah. I would have thought it was older than that. Yeah, same.
Starting point is 00:29:56 It wasn't. Apparently that guy also invented other things to do with nail products. He was a very rich man. Was Northam a man? Northam a man, yeah. Northam Warren, a man. Northam. Northam.
Starting point is 00:30:09 Northam? Northam. Northam. Okay, we're one apiece. Everyone's got one point. Here comes question number three. Who is the greatest ten-pin bowler of all time? Ten-pin?
Starting point is 00:30:24 Jason Belmont. That's right, Claudia. What is? Damn it. Did you guys know he's an Aussie? Yeah. Apparently. Apparently an Australian.
Starting point is 00:30:34 Greatest 10-pin bowler of all time. According to the accolades, he's won. Good on him. Has also won multiple, also got multiple 300 games. Games. Yeah. Where he hasn't missed a pin. Yeah, the top tier do do that, don't they?
Starting point is 00:30:51 Yeah. Someone's got to make the rest of us look cooler. Wow. Do you reckon when he walks back from doing a strike, he does a little fist pump? Yes. I reckon he blows on his fingers like a finger gun. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:05 Takes a knee. I think he dabs. And when he finger gun. Yeah, yeah. Takes a knee. I think he dabs. And when he goes to play, he's like, should we put the gutter guards up? Just kidding. And then a little nay-nay to finish it off. God, I haven't thought about the nay-nay for a while. I'll whip it out for you later.
Starting point is 00:31:17 He probably does a floss. Please don't whip out your nay-nay in front of me. Okay. Claudia's on two, Ella's on one, Clint's on one. Claudia could win the game right here. Question number four. How old was Shakespeare when he died? 52.
Starting point is 00:31:37 Oh, yes. Clint got in there. That is correct. It's 52. Very well done. Still in the game. All right. Two to Claude, two to Clint, one to Ella.
Starting point is 00:31:49 Question number five. In what year did the Berlin Wall fall? 89. 1989. I'm going to give it to Claudia. Yes! Woo! She saved it just.
Starting point is 00:32:06 She said 89. I said 89. And I'll give it to her. 1989 is the correct answer, which means, Anthony, you're back, Claude. You get the 50 KFC chicken dollars. Awesome. Well done, Claudia. Thank you very much.
Starting point is 00:32:21 Thanks, Anthony. Nice work. Well done, Claudia. And, Anthony, you'll agree with me. Anyone but Ella, right? Oh, very much. Thanks, Anthony. Nice work. I agree. Well done, Claudia. And Anthony, you'll agree with me. Anyone but Ella, right? Oh, my gosh. Anthony. Careful.
Starting point is 00:32:29 I'm on the fence on that one. Thank you. Good man. Smart man. Good Anthony. She picks up the phones here at ZM, so be nice. Anthony's a smart man. He's a smart man.
Starting point is 00:32:40 I get it, Anthony. He's a feminist, like me. I won't get into that room. Listen to how much Anthony laughed at you saying that. There's a Massachusetts woman who is making headlines around the world today after she has asked social media to help them find her husband. Okay. So she's married to, they're calling him a reality TV chef, but I think he was on one
Starting point is 00:33:10 episode of one show. Sure. Because that's all I can really find on him. But anyway, she was married to this semi-celebrity chef. Sure. And they've got two kids together. And about a year ago, he just vanished. Right.
Starting point is 00:33:29 Out of the blue. Vanished. She couldn't call his phone. Phone was turned off. She tried to contact him in multiple ways. Heard nothing. She knew he was still alive and well. It doesn't really say in the article how, but I think there was things that indicated he was still alive and well. It doesn't really say in the article how,
Starting point is 00:33:45 but I think there was things that indicated he was okay. If there was a bag packed, like if some of his stuff was gone. Yeah. Sometimes if there was like bank transactions after they go kind of thing. Yeah. Like there was indicators that he had just up and left and he hadn't been abducted or anything. Quite often people who are ghosting, they don't want you to think they're dead, but
Starting point is 00:34:08 they don't want you to think that. They're quite happy for you to think that they left. They just want to be gone. They just want to leave. There was indicators. Anyway, that was about a year ago. And this woman whose name is Ashley McGuire, she had had enough and she's like, I need to move on with my life, which means I need to start filing for a divorce so my kids and I can move on with our lives because this is ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:34:34 So she penned a Facebook post where she was like, if you know this man, if you've had any interactions with this man, this is my husband, this is what's going on, can you please give me any information? I need to get in touch with him so I can start the divorce papers and moving on. Anyway, the internet is ablaze because all of these women have come out of the woodwork being like, I'll help you.
Starting point is 00:35:00 I matched with that guy on Bumble two weeks ago. Oh, my God. This is his number that he gave me. Someone else said, I matched with that guy on Bumble two weeks ago. Oh, my God. This is his number that he gave me. Someone else said I matched with him as well. Do you want me to set up a date where I go to his house? Then I can give you his address. Wow. All this type of stuff.
Starting point is 00:35:14 Yeah. They're on the hunt. Anyway, apparently there's just hundreds and hundreds of messages with information to try and help Ashley get in touch with her husband who ghosted her a year ago. I hope they get him so bad. Me too. I hope they find him.
Starting point is 00:35:30 I hope they drag him by his foreskin back to that house to make him get his stuff and then sign the papers and get the hell out of there. Yeah. What kind of dog walks out on their family? She was pregnant. She was pregnant with his kid. She already had one of his kids. What kind of father abandons their children?
Starting point is 00:35:45 A piece of work. Yeah. Like an absolute piece of work. Yeah, a little nutsack. Anyway, the women of Facebook are on the case. Yeah. And I'm sure he'll be found very soon. What a dipshit putting himself on Bumble.
Starting point is 00:36:03 Just what a, I mean, let's be real. Yeah. What an a-hole. Yeah, yeah. And I'm glad that she is like, I want to find him so I can move on. She's not like, I want to find him so I can get answers. She's like, no, I'm just going to move on with my life. She's like, I don't need.
Starting point is 00:36:17 That's the right thing to do. Yeah, she's like, I don't need any more answers. I've got everything I need. I just need to start filing for a divorce. I was saying to you off air, because obviously that is like extreme case of ghosting, like when you're ghosting your entire family. Yeah. Like that's just next level D-bag.
Starting point is 00:36:35 Yeah. But this happened to a friend of mine. Yeah. Like years and years ago she was dating someone and they had been dating for a year. And when i say dating like it wasn't like super casual like they had been full-on full-blown dating for a year that met each other's families like everything and got ghosted just disappeared completely ghosted
Starting point is 00:37:00 changed his number yep wow like just never heard from them again. There's something missing from those people. Like there's something going on. How about this? So that ghosting story that you just read out, someone's already texted in. This is my story as well. It's been nine years now and all I want is a divorce. What?
Starting point is 00:37:20 Their partner left them? That's what they're saying. They said they had the same experience. I want to talk to that person. Let's get that person and let's get other people who have got crazy stories of being ghosted as well. If it's not too traumatic and you can talk about it, we'd love to hear your ghosting stories this afternoon.
Starting point is 00:37:39 Maybe you did the ghosting or you got ghosted. Maybe you're the ghost. Yeah. I'm a ghost. 0800 dials at him right now or you can text us on 9696. Yeah. Have you been ghosted? Did you do the ghosting?
Starting point is 00:37:56 That's the question we're asking you this afternoon after a woman got ghosted by her husband. Yeah. She got two kids. Just up and left. Never heard from him. And then she used Facebook to track him down and the powers of the internet.
Starting point is 00:38:11 Nah. The webs of women. The webs of women. Yeah, I was going to say, the Women's Detective Network have stepped in. Yep. And they've found him already.
Starting point is 00:38:19 They found him on Bumble, they've got his phone number. Apparently they found him within two hours. One of the girls is going to set up a fake date so she can get his address. Never underestimate the power of women in a gaggle. She said that she just wants to find him so that she can get a divorce.
Starting point is 00:38:34 So she can move on with her life. She said it's been two years. It's enough. I want to move on. We instantly got a text from someone who said this story is my story. The same thing is happening for me and I just want a divorce. That person wants to be anonymous. Hi, Anonymous.
Starting point is 00:38:46 Hi, Anonymous. Hi. Tell us, did this happen to you nine years ago? Yeah. My husband went to work as normal about sort of 6 o'clock in the morning, and I ended up getting a phone call from his boss wanting to know exactly where he were. Yeah. He was a bit confused as his car had been parked up.
Starting point is 00:39:11 His computer and his cell phone were in his car. Yeah. And he just disappeared. Oh, my God. What do you mean? Were you terrified that something had happened to him? How did you find out? Well, in the end, one of his colleagues knew a private investigator and had found out that he
Starting point is 00:39:36 had jumped on a plane. Okay. Yeah. What? He's got three children to my marriage. Then we found out there was an extra child roaming around in New Zealand. Really? Which you found out about after he disappeared? Yes, but I knew he had two children to another marriage as well. So there was a few children he left behind.
Starting point is 00:40:06 And so we've had no contact with him since we've got... Wait, so anonymous, you have never spoken to this man, the father of your children after this day that he just disappeared? No, not a word. We have a rough idea possibly where he
Starting point is 00:40:22 might be, but we've got nothing. Where do you think he is? Like country? Do you know what country you think he's in? We believe that it could be the Philippines, and it could be because he owes quite a bit of money, and therefore New Zealand apparently can't drag him back.
Starting point is 00:40:41 You can't be extradited. Yeah, wow. My God, Anonymous. So that's nine years of your life. And this might be a stupid question because you might never. But how long did it take you to get over that? I haven't actually. Yeah, I wouldn't have.
Starting point is 00:40:57 It's funny. Somebody sort of got talking about my affairs lately. And I said I'd met anyone and I said, look, I'm just absolutely petrified of ever meeting a man again because my confidence has just gone. That sucks, Anonymous
Starting point is 00:41:15 because it's not, you haven't done anything wrong and you shouldn't miss out, you know, because someone else was an a-hole. Yeah, but you start to think, well you know, obviously you're that bad. Yeah. That someone has sort of walked away from you and your three children
Starting point is 00:41:29 and one child has been sick most of his life as well. You want to think, as a dad, I could never fathom doing something like that. I know. But you want to think that it's something really serious, like it was a life or death matter that he had to go, and not that that excuses it, but you want to. Yeah, but like if you're a decent human being,
Starting point is 00:41:47 you can talk to your partner about it and be like, look, this is the situation. Or like give you closure at least, anonymous. But, oh, God. Yeah, for his children. Yeah, exactly. You know, and the crazy thing was we never argued. We never, we got on really, really well. So nothing was ever like bad or like the relationship was good
Starting point is 00:42:09 other than the fact that he up and left. Absolutely. But, you know, as soon as somebody leaves, you start hearing things coming out of the closet. Yeah. Hey, that's horrible anonymous. It's awful. We appreciate you being so vulnerable and sharing that with us though. I just hope that it doesn't
Starting point is 00:42:27 happen to anyone. It's the most heart-wrenching thing. Do you want Brie to put a picture of him on her Instagram account? Yeah, do you want me to find him? Do you know what? I just actually never want anything to do with a man. I'd be the same. I'd be the same. Never do with children. I would love a divorce but there's no real reason for it because if I haven't met anyone, we probably will never meet anyone again. Yeah, don't write yourself
Starting point is 00:42:52 off. No, Anonymous, I believe this could be the turning point. You coming on here and talking about it. Maybe. Yeah. Maybe. Because you deserve someone, Anonymous. I'd love to meet someone but you know what, the dating scene and particularly maybe just New Zealand
Starting point is 00:43:07 is really, really difficult for a 50 year old woman and yeah, it's not worth it for me. I'll bet. You sound awesome though, Anonymous. Thank you. I don't think I wear. You need to meet a man who's willing to
Starting point is 00:43:24 wear a GPS tracker at all times. Yeah, just put an air tag on him. Stick one up his bum so you know where he is at all times. Or even be able to glance over at his cell phone. That was one thing he never, ever let me do. Yeah, red flag. Thank you for sharing with us. We really appreciate it, Anonymous.
Starting point is 00:43:40 Thanks, Anonymous. Yeah, it's a lot of honesty. You didn't have to do that. Godspeed in the dating scene, Anonymous. That is terrifying. There's a few of honesty. You didn't have to do that. Godspeed in the dating scene, Anonymous. That is terrifying. There's a few stories like this on the text machine, which is also terrifying, but that is just. The crazy thing is he's got kids.
Starting point is 00:43:53 Like, and I know, you know, like multiple children, what he would just never talk to again. I just could not fathom that. No, me neither. Me neither. But some people. Like to even just give someone the closure of hey. Just a note. A note. You don't have to send the address
Starting point is 00:44:08 send a note, say this is why I did it. Like they had to hire a private investigator. He left his phone and everything. You would have thought that guy's dead. The weirdest bit for me was that he was kind enough to return his work car and phone to his boss but not kind enough to leave anything for his family.
Starting point is 00:44:24 Weird. Crazy? Weird. Weird. Crazy. Bree and Clint. ZM Bree and Clint. That's Fred again and Baby Keem. Leave me alone. Timber birthday banger.

I'm so excited for you, mate. It's been a while since I've seen you. When was the last time we caught up? Was it not last year doing that 50-kilometre walk? It is the last time we caught up? Was it not last year doing that 50 kilometre
Starting point is 00:50:45 walk? It is the last time we caught up, which is nearly a year ago, isn't it? God, it's been too long, Susan. You're going to need to do another Treasure Island. Actually, that's where I mentioned you in the book. What? Am I in this book? Yeah, about the walk. I talked about you in a chapter about when I walked the length of New Zealand. So 50k is nothing to you? You're like, yeah, piece of piss. In fact, we both did it pretty easily, didn't we? Yeah. No, I had another 50 in me.
Starting point is 00:51:12 So we drank a few beers and had a few durries. And then, you know, put it down to great experience. We celebrated, didn't we? You are here, Dame Susan Devoy, because your book is out. It's called My Story. How long does it take to write a book about yourself? Quite a long time, actually. Where do you start?
Starting point is 00:51:29 Because you've got such a massive story. And where do you start? Where do you put pen to paper to begin? It was easy at first because Unwin and Ellen just said to me, do you think you can write this yourself? And I thought, yep, rather than have a ghostwriter, it would be easier. I didn't want to talk to some random about my life. That's so you. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:44 You're like, I could do it. Did you actually write it yourself? I assumed that it was ghostwritten. Excuse me. I didn't want to talk to some random about my life. That's so you. Yeah. You're like, I could do it. Did you actually write it yourself? I assumed that it was ghostwritten. Excuse me. I wrote it all. Thank you. I did have some proofreaders and a very nice editor. As you always do.
Starting point is 00:51:53 You do, yeah. That's awesome. Good on you. I just wrote it in chronological order. They wanted it about the last 30 years of my life. Yeah. So I summarised it with my childhood, my squash, and then the rest is what's happened since.
Starting point is 00:52:04 What do you think are the craziest moments in the book, like squash, and then the rest is what's happened since. What do you think are the craziest moments in the book, like looking back and writing it where you're like, I can't believe I did that? Would it be walking the length of New Zealand or is that just the peak of the iceberg? I mean, those things were, when you look back at it, you thought it was normal at the time. Looking back, you think how ridiculous
Starting point is 00:52:19 in the middle of your professional sporting career that you do that. But life-defining. My job as the Race Relations Commissioner, undoubtedly relations commissioner undoubtedly you know good bad and indifferent and then the nutty whack job things like going on celebrity treasure island twice do you obviously say in there the biggest gift from doing that show was meeting brie thompson one of my best mates now first thing she said to me was i mean i made an instant impact on me, Brie, because both you and Matt on my first time were so kind and generous.
Starting point is 00:52:51 Oh, that's lovely to hear. You came back and you were genuinely concerned about contestants' welfare. I didn't know who the hell you were from Barra Soap when I went on Slewley Treasure Island. I didn't even know that you were Australian. Have you read your fellow racket sports compatriot, Andre Agassi's biography? A long time ago. Open.
Starting point is 00:53:11 It was called Open, wasn't it? The big revelation in that book is that he smoked crack. That's what really got the book flying off the shelves. Yeah. Oh, Bree and I have done that. I was going to say, any bombshells like that? In the Dane Susan Devoy book? Yeah, yeah, yeah. What's the biggest scandal? Bree and I, she was the first time I have done that. I was going to say, any bombshells like that? In the Dane Susan DeVoy book? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:25 What's the biggest scandal? Bree and I, she was the first time I've tried meth. Susan! No food on Celebrity Treasure Island. You don't need it. You don't need it. Imagine people who don't know your humour. They'll think you're being serious.
Starting point is 00:53:37 I've just heard that Rebel, what's her name? Rebel Wilson. She's putting out a whole lot of little tidbits of that. And her book's going through the roof. So I thought, I need something like that. So if we could say that I tried meth with Brie on Celebrity Treasure Island. Yeah, that'll get it going. Someone will probably believe that.
Starting point is 00:53:50 Well, Rebel Wilson, the big thing, big selling point for hers was that she said she lost her virginity at 35. You could just say you lost it at 45 and then it'll be a real scandal. And I had four children, so I'm the Virgin Susan. Yeah, the Virgin Susan four times over. There you go. There you go. There you go. That's six scandal cap it off. We've got drugs.
Starting point is 00:54:08 Any rock and roll? We're going to be on the cover for years. This is a bit silly, isn't it? Because you know what? That's what I love being around, Brie, is because I get to be young again. I get to feel like I'm just 21 and what am I going to do when I grow up? Mate, you are. You are.
Starting point is 00:54:22 You're so funny and just carefree. I'll laugh a minute. It's the best. The book is out now. It's in all good bookstores. It's in some bad bookstores too. We don't really care where you buy it from. It's called Dane and Susie D. My Story and it looks like an absolute ripper. Good to see you and
Starting point is 00:54:37 congratulations. Yeah, thank you and thanks for having me. Can't wait to read it, mate. Bree and Clint. Zed and Bree and Clint. That's Fred again. Let's adore you. I love how we've gone from playing no Fritigin ever, literally ever, to him coming to the country. Now we play Fritigin every hour. Usually how it works.
Starting point is 00:54:54 Yeah, remember Teddy Swims? Totally. Yep. He gained it. He's really good. This is why. And bands know this. I'm not going to tell them how to suck eggs.
Starting point is 00:55:01 Come to New Zealand. We'll play your music. If you come here, we will like you. We will like you for the fact that you came to New Zealand. People will become obsessed. They'll come to your shows. They'll support you. Bins and Boon came early. Did he?
Starting point is 00:55:15 Yeah, but he apologised. And he's coming again. Is he? He's young. He can go again. But you know what happens. He can pull out But you know what happens What? He can pull out Yeah I hope he does Yeah
Starting point is 00:55:28 Well no I hope he doesn't Oh okay I hope he doesn't pull out Of the show Okay Yeah Because then We won't get to enjoy
Starting point is 00:55:36 This show will be Will be a lot longer Second one's always a lot longer That's what they always say But I beg to differ Sometimes too long Sometimes
Starting point is 00:55:44 I've been to a lot of second shows, and I reckon most of the time they're shorter. In my experience, sometimes they struggle to wrap up the second show. Like they just can't. Yeah, they just can't seem to cut it off, you know, at the right time. We still talking about music? I wasn't talking about music at all. See you guys tomorrow.
Starting point is 00:56:06 Have a great night.
