Starting point is 00:00:00 Do you know what happens to used agri-plastics across the New Zealand farming industry? If you're unsure, there's a chance your supplier may be profiting from the sale of these plastics without collecting waste. Burning or burying plastic isn't a solution. Do your bit to make the plastic available for recycling. Do your bit by participating in the Plasback Collection Scheme. To check if your supplier is supporting the Plastback scheme and to find out more, head to plastback.co.nz.

Starting point is 00:02:02 I don't know it. I would tell you the sound if I knew it. We actually genuinely don't know. So four and five o'clock. Also, we're going to give away two free tickets to Manuka Fuel Symphony Festival when you hear our symphony track of the day. These guys are headlining when you hear Basement Jacks.

But it's not going to happen if the tradies don't continue to pull finger regularly. Yeah, they need to be pulling on that finger every day. Let's go to our fingered tradie right now.
Starting point is 00:03:18 He's calling from Auckland. He's 29 and he broke his arm at his niece and nephew's birthday party. Welcome to the show, Rhubarb. G'day, Rubes. Hello, hello. Mate, how did you manage that? Oh, I just, I decided after a few cold ones that it might be a good idea to go like Superman,
Starting point is 00:03:40 so on my feet, down a slip and slide. Oh. And let me guess, Rhubarb crumble. Yeah, I did. I crumbled hard. Big time. Rhubarb crumble. Oh, that's so yum.
Starting point is 00:03:52 I love a rhubarb crumble. Me too. You're taking on our lady today from the Great Lake of Taupo. She's 31 and she's a natural redhead. Welcome to the show, Alicia. Hi, Alicia. Hi. Natural redheads, very rare these days.
Starting point is 00:04:08 Oh, yeah. Are you planning to breed with another redhead to, you know, maintain the redhead population? No, I'd rather keep being the only one. Oh, okay, you want to be unique. Yeah, she wants to be special. Yeah, fair enough, fair enough. Alicia, your buzzer is lady.
Starting point is 00:04:23 Rubes, your buzzer is tradie. First to three correct answers is going to go home with $50 cash. You're not going to believe the first question. These questions are pre-written, can I say? We write them before the show. Here we go. Question number one. What is the name of the little mermaid in the Disney movie?
Starting point is 00:04:42 Ariel. Ruben. Neither of you used your buzzer. You both came in with the answer. But Alicia, there was a sitter for you. That was an absolute sitter. Surely as a redhead. Again, Alicia's not interested in any other redheads.
Starting point is 00:04:59 She wants to be the only one. She told us. Ariel can get in the bin. All right, question number two. What do bees collect to make honey? Rhubarb. Yes. Okay. Okay, that's your last chance, Rhubarb, of not
Starting point is 00:05:14 using your buzzer, okay? Oh, I did. Your buzzer is tradie, and Alicia, your buzzer is lady. A lady. Okay, Bree, are you awarding a point or not? I think we do to keep the game moving, but that's the final warning. Rhubarb, what was your answer?
Starting point is 00:05:31 Pollen. Pollen. We'll give you a point, but that's the final warning. Question number three. Buzz in when you can tell me who sings this. I can feel my face when I'm with you. Train. Good work, guys.
Starting point is 00:05:45 Rhubarb. Daft Punk? No. Not a bad guess, Alicia. The Weeknd? The Weeknd sings that song. You're correct. Well done.
Starting point is 00:05:56 We are one apiece in this game. Question number four. What is the name of the currency they use in Japan? Sorry. Tradies. Did you buzz in, Alicia? Lady. Now, did you buzz, though, or did you just say something?
Starting point is 00:06:14 Sorry. Did you stop? I stopped what I was about to say. You stopped what you were about to say. Then it's rhubarbs. Rhubarb. Yen. Yen.
Starting point is 00:06:22 It is the yen. Two to the tradies, one to the ladies. We press on. Question number five. Name a cow's milk alternative you might have in your coffee. Treat. Rhubarb. Yes, rhubarb.
Starting point is 00:06:35 Oat milk. He's got it. Oat milk will do. God, felt like a couple of school teachers there, eh? Yeah. Really laying down the law. Sorry to be tough, guys, but we have to,. God, felt like a couple of school teachers there, eh? Yeah. Really laying down the law. Sorry to be tough, guys, but we have to, you know, to be fair. Big, big things on the line.
Starting point is 00:06:51 And I think we got a fair result. It's a win for Rhubarb and the Tradies. Congratulations. Woo-hoo! Well done. Bree and Clint. I read about this couple that had probably the worst honeymoon you could ever have.
Starting point is 00:07:05 Oh, yeah? And, I mean, we have someone on the show that's about to go on a honeymoon soon. Yeah. Producer Ella, you're about to go away soon, so maybe don't listen to this story, but I'm sure yours will... Oh, yours will be fine. Yours will be fine. You're not going on a boat, are you?
Starting point is 00:07:20 I mean, we're going to Thailand, so that could be a day trip. Okay. Why? Are you? I mean, we were going to Thailand, so that could be a day trip. Okay. Well, there's a couple that were going to the Maldives. Maldives. Maldives. I'm a Maldives. I've never been, though. Do you just pick what side you're on when it comes to pronunciation?
Starting point is 00:07:38 Yeah, yeah. It's like tomato, tomato. Maldives. Yeah. And anyway, they got on a boat to cruise over to the island that they were staying on. Yeah. And their ship sank.
Starting point is 00:07:51 It's a bad omen for the marriage going forward. Not ideal. Yeah. So the couple have spoken about it and essentially they were on this, I think it was quite a big boat. There was 50 people on this boat. Oh. And they were heading over to the Maldives.
Starting point is 00:08:08 Was everyone okay? Everyone's okay. Oh, good, because I already laughed. Yeah, don't worry. Normally on radio if people have died. We don't use them as chatty banter. No, no, but everyone's safe so it's all good. But essentially the waters were hectic as, and then next minute all the passengers were like told to put their life vests on.
Starting point is 00:08:30 Yeah. But the crew never told them that the boat was sinking. Okay. So they were all kind of like, oh, are we okay? Like what's going on? Anyway, 40 minutes later the boat had sunk. Gone. And this couple in particular went to inflate. It was those life jackets. The ripcord ones.
Starting point is 00:08:46 You rip the cord and it inflates. Neither of their life vests inflated. Yeah, but they would have been on enough flights to know that if your life vest fails to inflate, please blow into the mouthpiece. I don't think they're the same life vest. Really? No. Have you never seen the boat life vest that you literally, all it is is like this tiny little life vest and as soon as you pull it,
Starting point is 00:09:06 it inflates? I got in big trouble on one season of Treasure Island. We made all the contestants wear them and I bet Jo Cotton, I bet her 50 bucks that she wouldn't pull her life vest just for fun. Oh, yeah. And she did. Then we got told off from the producers because they're worth like $300 each. Oh, what?
Starting point is 00:09:27 It's good TV, though. I think the cameras missed it. Oh. Anyway. That's more Joe Cotton's fault than yours. Yeah, that was Joe Cotton's fault. I blame her as well. Anyway, they were out in the middle of the ocean.
Starting point is 00:09:40 Someone filmed it. Of course. Everyone out in the ocean. Yeah. And eventually they got rescued about an hour later. Someone filmed it. Of course. Everyone out in the ocean and eventually they got rescued about an hour later. Oh good. And everyone was okay. You'd power on with the honeymoon?
Starting point is 00:09:52 Surely. Oh you should because then you'll get an upgrade. Well the thing is is that there was one casualty. It was one of their backpacks containing their passports. Oh okay. And essentially they had to go to the embassy and wait. Oh, that's just an extended honeymoon.
Starting point is 00:10:09 Yeah. You'd hope so, eh? Yeah, yeah, yeah. A lot of life admin though. Honeymoons are just a holiday with more pressure on them. So much pressure. So there's no guarantee everything is going to go perfect on your honeymoon. This one couple I know went on their honeymoon
Starting point is 00:10:25 and their luggage got lost on the flight. They didn't get it till like a week into their honeymoon. Nothing brings you closer than washing underwear in a sink. You know, that says true love to me. Oh, 100 dollars at Airmortex9696
Starting point is 00:10:42 we want to hear your nightmare honeymoon stories this afternoon. What went wrong? Did you guys break up? What just went down on the honeymoon? Did someone cheat on the other? Oh. What was the nightmare honeymoon? 0800 dials at M or text us on 9696.
Starting point is 00:10:59 Cheat when you get home. Yeah, just wait a couple of weeks. Like a normal person. Bree and Clint. Story about this couple who were headed to the Maldives for their honeymoon and the boat they were on sunk. Everyone's okay. Everyone's okay. 50 people bobbing around in the ocean, but they got them all.
Starting point is 00:11:15 Pretty traumatic though. Yeah. Isn't it? Yeah. Like very traumatic, bobbing around in the ocean. What went wrong on my honeymoon was that I outgrew my pants from eating our way around Italy. Also traumatic.
Starting point is 00:11:27 Also traumatic. But the good thing was, so did my wife. Just go buy new ones. Yeah, we went on a couple's trip to H&M when we got to Paris and we got some new jeans. Nothing says you've had a great holiday like buying new sized pants. Buying fat pants. Yeah. Arlene's here.
Starting point is 00:11:41 Hi, Arlene. Hi, Arlene. Hello. How are you doing? We're good. What's your here. Hi, Arlene. Hi, Arlene. Hello. How are you doing? We're good. What's your nightmare honeymoon story, Arlene? Well, I went to the beautiful Abel Tasman. Stunning.
Starting point is 00:11:51 Lovely. And on the way over, we thought we'd stop and get a pie from Takaka. Uh-huh. Got a pie, got the water taxi, went up to the Abel Tasman beautiful lodge in the middle of the forest. Yes. And then proceeded to get very sick. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:12:07 Very, very sick. Dodgy pie. Was it a dodgy pie? Dodgy pie. Dodgy pie. Arlene, did you get spitty bum on your honeymoon, did you? Yes. Yeah, we got to know each other on a very, very deep level.
Starting point is 00:12:22 Please tell me all those barriers had been broken before you got married. Oh, my God, yes. It was like, hi, this is me, inside and out. Inside and out. Hey, that's true love, Arlene. That is true love. 17 years later, though, we're still together. Oh, well done.
Starting point is 00:12:40 There you go. If you can survive Spittybum, you guys can survive anything. Someone said, the first day of our honeymoon, I lost the wedding ring. Yeah, that's not ideal. Someone else said, we went to Samoa in the middle of the measles epidemic there in 2019. Then I got gastro and he got strep throat. Warned against going to the doctor, so we just had to cop it. Worst honeymoon ever. Could have been worse, though. Could have got measles. Yeah, well, so we just had to cop it. Worst honeymoon ever.
Starting point is 00:13:05 Could have been worse, though. Could have got measles. Yeah, well, that's true, isn't it? Someone else said, my daughter sprained both of her ankles on her honeymoon. Both ankles? How did she do that? I'm sure it was walking.
Starting point is 00:13:20 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Sights to see. Yeah, yeah. That sucks, though. That really sucks. There's nothing you can do for a sprained ankle, and if Sights to see. Yeah, yeah. That sucks though. That really sucks. There's nothing you can do for a sprained ankle. And if she had one sprained ankle, at least she could buy some crutches and hobble her way around wherever they were.
Starting point is 00:13:33 But both? Yeah, that's horrible. She's either lying on a bed or she's in a wheelchair. Yeah, terrible time to sprain both your ankles. What about this one? My parents honeymooned in Vanuatu. They went snorkelling. Dad got shallow water blackout.
Starting point is 00:13:47 Mum says he's never been more... Mum says she's never been more mad at him for ruining the holiday by potentially dying. I can't believe how selfish you are. I've never heard of shallow water blackout. Haven't you? It's terrifying. Yeah, I'm sure he didn't do it on purpose.
Starting point is 00:14:03 No, it's not on purpose. It's where you go diving and then if you come up too quickly and it's like... Well, that's the bends, isn't it? Oh, well, yeah, shallow water blackout. He's only snorkelling. It's just Dad snorkelling around in some
Starting point is 00:14:17 shallow water. But if he went down far enough... Oh, you know what it'll be? Probably didn't wait 20 minutes after he had his lunch. Yeah. I don't know what it'll be. He would have had a big chicken salad roll his lunch. That's, yeah. I don't know what it'll be. He would have had a big chicken salad roll. Yeah, yeah, exactly right. Knowing dad. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:14:29 Knowing what he's like. Good? Yeah, there's one more. Oh, yeah. Hubby went overseas. Hubby went on our overseas honeymoon with a suspected grumbling appendix. Doctor assured us we could be evacuated home if it got worse. And if it went our honeymoon, he would advise not going.
Starting point is 00:14:47 I wonder if they got it. If it weren't our honeymoon, yeah. If it weren't our honeymoon. Weird advice from the doctor. Yeah. Just go. They'll evacuate you if they need to. If worse comes to worse.
Starting point is 00:14:57 You'd just be worried about it the whole time. For a few years in the 1970s, the Mr Asia Syndicate made millions. Heroin creates its own market. It acts like a form of play. Until jealousy, betrayal and murder brought it all crashing down. Clark would have threatened him. Go and kill him. If you don't, I'm going to kill you and your wife and your son. This is Mr. Asia, a forgotten history. All episodes now available on iHeartRadio, Apple, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.

She performed the song called The Giver on SNL back in like September. And all of us have been like, when are you releasing it? Finally, tomorrow is the day. Tomorrow is Chapel Roan Day.
Starting point is 00:15:56 Chapel Roan Day, finally. And I saw this really fun TikTok where it was a girl posting about something her roommate had caught in the mosh pit at a Chapel Roan show. Oh yeah. I was like, that's fun. Like how you caught COVID at Laneway. Similar but different.
Starting point is 00:16:16 This you could actually frame it. Oh, okay. So they've had it framed and apparently this girl caught at her Coachella set, her earring flung off into the crowd. Chapel Roan's earring. Chapel Roan's earring.
Starting point is 00:16:32 Oh, yeah. And this girl caught it and then they had it framed and now it sits in their living room. Do you not offer Chapel Roan an earring back? Hell no. No? You run. Yeah.

I had a sleeper in my ear.
Starting point is 00:17:11 And then when I started intermediate, it was a whole new range of kids. Like I went to a different school to the ones my primary school friends went to. And when I got there, it wasn't cool in that crowd to have your ear pierced. And I got accused of being a pirate. I said, okay, pirate boy.
Starting point is 00:17:27 What kind of pirate? I got accused of being a bandit. Oh. I just think it's... So I took it out, by the way. Oh, that's sad. You should put it back in. I can't.

Starting point is 00:18:34 Can people text us on 9696 just for my own personal enjoyment? Have you caught anything at a concert? Bree just asked you what you catch at a concert. And we're not talking about flus or... Although one of them. Someone did
Starting point is 00:18:50 catch a flu. This one's quite good actually. They said, caught my favourite artist's half empty water bottle. He was sick but I drank out of it anyway and I got the worst flu of my life. I need to know who that was.
Starting point is 00:19:05 So you caught their water bottle and then you caught their virus. Who was that? Someone said I caught Savage's sweat towel. That would have been wet. Hell yeah. And then someone said I caught a drumstick at a Pink concert. I'm not joking. When Brie read that text she went
Starting point is 00:19:21 huh? Why was Pink throwing out chicken at a gig? I was like, I want to go to the Mosh Pit at Pink concert. Huh? What? Drumstick? Oh, drums. You can tell where my priorities are.

Starting point is 00:19:52 Someone said, hey, I'm a lighting tech for concerts, and one time Mitch James had a breast implant thrown at him on stage. Two days later, I found that same implant sitting in a road case for a different gig. Wow, the sisterhood of the travelling implant. Whose breast implant was it? Was it an implant or
Starting point is 00:20:15 is this guy getting confused with those chicken fillets? Because an implant would be very expensive. Also, what's it doing on the outside of your body? No, it might be a doctor, you know, where they're like, oh, upgrade, so I've just got these, you know. Yeah, well, why doesn't Mitch James want it?

Starting point is 00:21:21 Shemalemile, let me give you the gossip. I'm going to tell you you the news headline is this. Apparently, he's went and bought a $300,000 ring to propose to his girlfriend, Kylie Jenner. It has like 150 diamonds, small ones, big ones, everything in between. Apparently, they've been looking at chalets. Like, I'm not even kidding. That was a headache. Timothee Chalamet's chalets.
Starting point is 00:21:44 I can't even. I can't be people. Soothee Chalamet's chalets. I can't even. I can't be people. So good. They're like looking to buy a property together. I don't actually know how serious they would be about getting married. I don't know. I feel like they've been together for two minutes. But time does fly when you're having fun.
Starting point is 00:21:56 He's 29. She's 27. I don't mean to be cynical, but I've never seen a relationship less likely to go the distance than Timothee Chalamet and Kylie Jenner. You reckon? Yeah. Really? Are you really?
Starting point is 00:22:10 Yeah, Dean? I have some goss. I heard that he's a nightmare to work with. Really? This is why we've got Dean on the show. I was literally going to ask you, Dean, is this guy for real? What's the tea on Timothee Chalamet? Okay.
Starting point is 00:22:23 This is what I was told. When he did his last press tour, they went, I think, to Canada and a few different places. He was such a nightmare that he was in a room, and you know how you get your rider for different things, but he didn't have one of the things on his rider, and he actually sat on the floor and was like... Like a tantrum.
Starting point is 00:22:41 Like a teenager. Like a toddler. Yeah. Yeah, I'm not even kidding. A teenager. Teenagers don't even a toddler. Yeah. Yeah, I'm not even kidding. A teenager. Teenagers don't even do that. What am I talking about? And apparently he's a nightmare.
Starting point is 00:22:51 I rarely, rarely hear this like this. Yeah. But I got told this and I was like, wow, I can't wait to stop reading. Well, you're our guy on Hollywood and all of your leads so far for us have come through. You're a reliable source. So if you say Timothy Charlemagne is a nightmare, he's a nightmare, Dean. Yeah, we looked into you hooking up with Chris Olsen. That checked out.
Starting point is 00:23:12 That was true. That was true. So now we believe everything you say. Yeah, we looked into your claims of you having a 10-pack. That was true. That was true as well. Speaking of a nightmare, kidding, love you. Love you.
Starting point is 00:23:23 Bye, Dean. That's Dean McCarthy. He's our Hollywood correspondent, and that's the tea. Bree and Clint. I saw this story today. There's a man who was going through security at an airport, as you do, unless, of course, you're flying to Taranaki, and they go, oh, no, don't worry about security, mate.
Starting point is 00:23:39 Or any other places in regional New Zealand. Very true. No regional airport have I ever been through security. Very true. And have you ever had a problem? Never. Exactly. This man was going through security at an airport and he was found to be smuggling a
Starting point is 00:23:56 live turtle concealed inside his pants, which brings a whole new meaning to the term turtle head, doesn't it? He was turtle poking for sure. He was turtling. Yeah. In his pants. It's not funny though. It's serious.
Starting point is 00:24:11 The turtle was detected on Friday after a body scanner alarm went off. Can you imagine the people in security? Yeah. They'd be like, hey, Gary, can you come have a look at this? I think this guy's turtling. Is it just me or is that a freaking turtle? Is there a turtle head in this guy's pants? A customs officer then conducted a pat down on the man, as they do,
Starting point is 00:24:36 and realised there was something concealed in the groin region. Oh, that poor turtle. Of his pants. When they questioned him a bit further, the man reached into his pants and pulled out the live turtle, which was about 12 centimetres long. I hope it wasn't a snapping turtle. Me too. And wrapped in a small blue towel.
Starting point is 00:24:56 Why? Why was he trying to do that? It doesn't say. They confiscated the turtle, and it's not clear whether the turtle was his pet. That poor thing Or if he was smuggling it to sell it Or something like that Probably sell it
Starting point is 00:25:10 You wouldn't put your pet through that No Any good pet owner knows not to put their pet in their pants Correct That is pet 101 You're right That is the first thing they teach you at pet school. Turtle in the pants.
Starting point is 00:25:29 What's worse than having a turtle down your pants? Oh, having a snake. Way worse. Trouser snake. I'd much rather the turtle. Would you rather have a turtle head or a trouser snake? Or a beaver. Look, here's a real weird question.
Starting point is 00:25:48 Do you work somewhere where you're in charge of what people bring in and do you have like a bizarre smuggling story that would shock us? Where you just couldn't believe it. It's not just customs officers that will have these. It's people who like do the door at Spark Arena. Like, it's people who check you before you go into, I don't know, anywhere where you have to go through security. It's like that guy that got done a couple of weeks ago smuggling cocaine.
Starting point is 00:26:18 Did you see that story? No. And he was smuggling a heap of cocaine under his toupee. Oh, yes, I saw it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And they found it. Yeah, they were like, sir, either that is the worst toupee I have ever seen or you are concealing something under it.
Starting point is 00:26:36 Oh, you're packing heat. He's like, it's just a turtle. Yeah, nothing to see here. Oh, $800 at him. I don't know what we're going to get out of this, but I'm fascinated. Can you shock us with a story of someone trying to smuggle something into somewhere? Yeah, and we don't care where they were smuggling or, like, where it was. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:26:54 Like, if it was up their bum, it was up their bum. Yeah, and if you found it, you found it. You found it. And if you need to be anonymous, you can be anonymous. We don't need to ask questions about how you found it. We just want to know what you found. Smuggling stories. We're just talking about the man who's been busted smuggling a turtle down his pants through an airport.
Starting point is 00:27:14 So we want to know, are you in charge of checking what people are bringing into anywhere? An airport, a prison, a school, a concert, whatever. And can you shock us with your story of smuggling? Elijah has called up. Hi, Elijah. Hi, Elijah. Hey, how's it going? Good.
Starting point is 00:27:31 Are you security? No, no, no. I worked in a movie theatre. I would clean up theatres. Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah. That's a classic. Everyone's had a brush with smuggling
Starting point is 00:27:44 when it comes to a movie theatre, eh, Elijah? Yeah, I bet you haven't heard of Jan like this. One time I was after a movie, can't remember the movie, but a guy had smuggled a whole cooked chicken, a coleslaw, pasta salad, butter, a little ceramic plate, you know, a proper butter knife. It wasn't a plastic butter knife. It was, you know, a proper butter knife.
Starting point is 00:28:05 It wasn't a plastic butter knife. It was, you know, stainless steel ones. Actual cutlery. Actual cutlery. Couldn't find a fork. But when I was walking in and they were all walking out, I just happened to notice this guy and it looked like he had, well, I realised it was butter,
Starting point is 00:28:22 but yeah, he had butter on his pants and I was like, oh, is that odd? And then I got into the aisles and there it was all sitting there. And all I could think of when I saw the plates and stuff, I was like, man, my mum would be so annoyed. Yes. And you didn't bring the plate back. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:39 What, he bought a plate from his kitchen? Yeah, yeah, a ceramic plate, like a little, yeah. God, I can't believe he bought the full chicken coleslaw bun set up. Everything. He bought a whole roast dinner in. Yeah, yeah, and he just left it there. Obviously, he didn't want to try and sneak it out again. Nah, he'd had his fill.
Starting point is 00:28:58 He'd had enough. Out of the question, out of interest, do you remember what movie it was? Chicken Run, I heard. I was like, I was like 16 at the time. Oh, well, there you go. You're right, Elijah, we've never heard a yarn like that. Never heard a yarn like that. Brilliant.
Starting point is 00:29:15 And it was worth every second. Lots of texts coming in about smuggling. Someone said, my friend snuck a whole 40-ounce of Jager into the Wellington Sevens in her skirt. Shot, sis. That's solid. And we're not going to ask any further questions about that. I accidentally smuggled a big chunk of weed in my purse from Hamilton to Wellington.
Starting point is 00:29:33 I did not realise that it was still in there until I got to Wellington and I was shitting my pants. I bet you were. I checked into the hotel and I left it in the hotel bathroom and luckily no one noticed. Thank God for that. Someone else said, back in the 80s, my mum flew to the Gold Coast to see my uncle. He really wanted some New Zealand mussels, so she put them in her suitcase and smuggled them across the border.
Starting point is 00:29:59 Wouldn't get away with that now. She took suitcase mussels. God, you'd be in so much trouble. She'd have to put so many ice packs and stuff in there. Imagine how much it would stink. Oh, she'd have to do so much. Like, surely the sniffer dogs would get it in a second. But yeah, you're right. You wouldn't get away with that now. That was
Starting point is 00:30:13 the 80s. This person wants to be anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hi. Smuggling stories. Have you got one for us? Yeah. A long time ago now, I was a Dunedin student. Yeah. Otago and had to get home
Starting point is 00:30:29 back to Wellington and I had my pet rat and got no money and just thought, you know, good old Kiwi, she'll be right and just put it down my top
Starting point is 00:30:42 and carried it on the plane and just chilled with me on the plane the whole way. Anonymous, you're as bad as the guy with the turtle in his pants. Well, no. Yes. They're all from quite different areas on the body. Do you realise who you are, Anonymous? Pardon?
Starting point is 00:31:00 You are Luigi from Ratatouille. I do like to cook. Why did your rat need to go to Dunedin? No, back from Dunedin. So I had a Dunedin study. She was going home. Oh, right. Oh, that makes a lot more sense.
Starting point is 00:31:16 Yeah, you couldn't leave the rat in Wellington. No, they were the least street rat, but they were a whole different kind of rat. Yeah. Did the rat, was the rat chill? Yeah. Did it bite you? No.
Starting point is 00:31:30 Did you put any food down? Did you put your food? I could roll up bits of paper and throw it across the floor and they'd go get it and bring it back. Yeah. Did you put any food down your top for the rat? I did have some snacks. Where was the rat sitting?
Starting point is 00:31:42 Like, just like, kind of like where you'd hold a little newborn baby. In the chuzzies? In your buzzies. Yeah. Just like kind of like your chuzzies were kind of like a rat hammock. Pretty much, yeah. Yeah, right. Old rat tits, eh?
Starting point is 00:31:55 Living his best life, really. You're a hoot. The itty bitty ratty committee. Yeah, yeah. I want to go to like a festival with you because I know if you can get a rat on a domestic flight, you can get anything done anonymously. The potential of what Anonymous could smuggle in is endless. It's endless.
Starting point is 00:32:13 It's not the only story, but I think that's enough for the radio. Okay, good. Call us back another time and tell us more. That wasn't you with the roast chicken at the movie theatre, was it? I'll meet you at the front of Symphony like you said. Yeah, yeah. We'll smuggle
Starting point is 00:32:27 something good in. We don't endorse that behaviour. No, we don't. We do not. No, I won't. I promise. Bree and Clint.
Starting point is 00:32:34 Once upon a time there was a girl. She was smart, debatable, talented, eh, athletic, not really,
Starting point is 00:32:42 but picking a movie title based on just the plot line, that she can do. Bree and Clint's What's The Plot? A movie guessing game where today, Jake, you'll be taking on Bree for $100 cash. Welcome. G'day, mate.
Starting point is 00:32:59 Hiya, how you doing? Good, thank you. You've already scored yourself three months of free neon, so congratulations. That's yours off the bat. Oh, sweet. No worries. How good.
Starting point is 00:33:11 I will play the game the way we always do. I'll read out movie plot lines. If you think you know what it is first, Jake, you buzz in with Jake. If Bree thinks she knows, she'll buzz in with Bree. And the first person to give me two correct answers is going to win the game this afternoon, okay? Awesome. Easy. Best of luck.
Starting point is 00:33:30 Don't wait for me to finish the plot line. Just go for it as soon as you think you know what it is. Okay. Sweet. Today, our theme, for no particular reason, we're going to do apocalyptic movies. End of the world type stuff. Zombie-leaning movies. End of the world type stuff. Zombie leaning movies. Okay.
Starting point is 00:33:47 Alright. Good luck everybody. Good luck. Good luck Jake. Good luck Brie. Thanks Jake. Appreciate it. I just wanted to say it back.
Starting point is 00:33:58 Nah he doesn't. Nah he's like I don't wish you good luck at all. I wish you good luck. I would have beat you. That's fair enough. Movie one. Good luck guys.
Starting point is 00:34:05 A survivor of a man made plague that transforms Brie. I am legend. She's back, baby. Really? That could have been any. That could have been the monkey one. That movie literally starts with... Outbreak, contagion.
Starting point is 00:34:27 Took a stab. Yeah, it's come off for you. Have you seen it, Jake? Yes, years ago, yep. Will Smith. Fantastic movie. Yeah. Movie number two.
Starting point is 00:34:40 This is you. If you want to stay in this, Jake, this is you, okay? Yeah, yeah. You need to go hard and early. When a mysterious force decimates the population, only one thing is certain. If you see it, you die. The survivors...
Starting point is 00:34:59 Bree. Bird Box? Oh, yeah. Ah. Bird Box? Oh, yeah. The only reason I spoke up there is because I heard Jake buzz too and then I started to question myself as to whether Jake buzzed first. Claudia, do you think I made the right decision? Yeah, I think you called it right. It was very close, wasn't it?
Starting point is 00:35:22 You can get a replay, but no, I think you're right. No, I believe you. Hashtag believe woman. Brie, congratulations. Thank you so much, Jake. Very worthy opponent and like we said, you're not going away empty-handed. You got that three-month Neon subscription. Well done, mate.
Starting point is 00:35:37 Yeah, that's awesome. Cheers, guys. Sweet as. We jackpot to $150 and Brie and Clint's Watch the Plot next week. Thanks to our mates at Neon for the latest blockbuster movies. You can sign up to Max on Neon from just $12.99 a month. Bree and Clint. Is there, here's an ethical dilemma for you, is there any way that you can ask for a dog back
Starting point is 00:35:58 after you give it away if you change your mind? I don't know if there is. It's a tough one. I mean, I need to hear the details. Every story needs context. Okay. I adopted Ross Boss's old dog and he wants it back. No, he doesn't.
Starting point is 00:36:14 I hope he doesn't. Too bad, Ross. I've bonded with that dog now. No, this is a real life story that I have taken from Reddit today, okay? Okay. We can decide what the deal is. Someone says, a year ago,
Starting point is 00:36:26 my aunt decided to sell her dog of five years, claiming it was too much work, despite being wealthy and child-free and also not working. Around the same time... I've got to go to the club though later. Hashtag no judgment. I'm going to go play down at the club.
Starting point is 00:36:42 But your auntie... And then I've got my Brazilian butt lift appointment. Around the same time, my family was grieving the loss of our 15-year-old dog. So when she mentioned she was selling hers, we offered to take it in. We had bonded with the dog
Starting point is 00:36:57 before and knew that the transition would be smooth. She initially said that she'd still try and sell the dog, but she'd give it to us if no one wanted it. Oh, this woman sounds like a piece of work. A few days later, she handed the dog over and we welcomed her as part of our family. For five wonderful months,
Starting point is 00:37:19 we loved and spoiled our new dog while my auntie travelled the world. But after returning, she started hinting that she wanted the dog back. Eventually guilt tripping me into agreeing. We were heartbroken but a month later she announced
Starting point is 00:37:34 she was moving into a no pets apartment and offered us the dog back again. This time we made her promise not to ask for the dog back. We changed the dog's ownership into our name. Smart. And we've had her for six months.
Starting point is 00:37:51 Last week, she started hinting that she was lonely and she would like her dog again. When we refused, it escalated into a full-blown argument with her accusing us of stealing her dog and threatening to cut us off. What's the deal? Is it normal or okay for someone to ask for their dog back? I want to get rid of that woman. I hope someone adopts her out of the family
Starting point is 00:38:21 because I don't want her in my family. Well, that's the thing. She's threatening to cut them off, but is that such a bad thing to be cut off by an auntie like that? No, I would not care. You know what they say? You know they say blood is thicker than water. Oh, she just, she obviously is more a piss colour, I reckon.
Starting point is 00:38:39 Well, she's using the dog, first of all. She just sounds like she doesn't deserve the dog. No, she's playing with people's emotions. Yes, she doesn't deserve the dog. Two, she doesn't deserve to be a part of that family when you're doing that stuff to people that you're meant to care about. Yeah. And three.
Starting point is 00:39:01 She's not cut out for a dog either. Yeah. She doesn't understand. Even though she's had that dog twice, she still doesn't understand the responsibility that comes with having a dog. Oh, the tech machine's firing up. Okay, what are the people saying? People are saying she's an a-hole.
Starting point is 00:39:14 She doesn't deserve a friend. Let her cut you off. B word, poor dog. Someone else said that happened to my partner's family. They had a dog for eight years when a family moved overseas and when they unexpectedly moved back, they asked for the dog back. Get stuffed. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:39:33 There's no way in any world I would give the dog back. No, me neither. Not a chance. Especially not the second time around. Not even the first time. No, I know, but they did the first time, and I can see that they feel bad about it. They shouldn't have. Poor old dog's getting jerked around too.
Starting point is 00:39:48 Exactly. He's like, bro, where do I sleep? That's trauma for the dog. Yeah, yeah. Someone said, what a mutt move. Talking about her, obviously, the woman. Yeah, yeah. Okay, do we all agree?
Starting point is 00:39:58 That woman's not allowed to ask for her dog back. That woman's not. That woman's not. No way. We didn't settle the debate, though, about whether there's any circumstances in where you could ask for your dog back. Yeah, is not. That woman's not. No way. We didn't settle the debate, though, about whether there's any circumstances in where you could ask for her dog back. Yeah, is there?
Starting point is 00:40:08 What do you reckon, producers? Does anyone ask the dog what they wanted? Let the dog choose. I'll put the dog in the middle of the park. Yeah, in the park. Hair boy, hair boy, hair boy. And you just hide a bit of chicken in your pocket. Put a little cheese.
Starting point is 00:40:19 Yep. Or in your case, a little bit more chicken. Yeah. I always keep a bit of chicken in my pocket. She always keeps that thang on her. Bree and Clint. Secret Sound is not a mousetrap snapping closed. It could be a mousetrap.
Starting point is 00:40:32 Unfortunately, it could be a mousetrap being opened. I'd be fuming. Me too. Like, I'd be like... Especially because we, me, pushed her in that direction. Someone's texted and said, Clint should not be having an opinion. I've been saying this for years.
Starting point is 00:40:47 What, on the secret sound or just in general? I want to talk about this next story. There's a Kiwi woman who's making headlines today after she tried to get a loan, which she did end up getting. So this is a happy ending. She tried to get a loan for her first house. A lot of banks accepted all of her paperwork and were like,
Starting point is 00:41:09 yeah, we're happy to give you a loan. But there was a couple of banks that denied giving her a home loan because of one particular thing. Okay. And it was her career choice. Right. So turns out this woman had worked for a number of years in the banking industry making hardly any money yeah like minimum wage and then eventually uh started her own
Starting point is 00:41:35 only fans account ah started making huge money saved up a deposit in a couple of years and she said a lot of the banks were open to giving her a loan. Some banks were like, nah. Really? Yeah. They saw OnlyFans as... And they went, no.
Starting point is 00:41:53 I wonder if it was out of like a judgmental thing or if it's because of the type of work that it is, if it's like, I don't know. But I mean, no job is guaranteed. If they think, because you know, some... Even like our career. Self-employed people find this all the time. They're like, no job is guaranteed. If they think, because you know, some... Even like our career. Self-employed people find this all the time. They're like, you need to show us how much you make.
Starting point is 00:42:10 And you go, well, I made, a builder might go, well, I made 150 grand last year. And they're like, how much are you going to make the year after? You're like, I don't know. Well, they'll say I'll make 150 grand, but the bank will go, how do you know that? It's not guaranteed. But nobody knows that.
Starting point is 00:42:23 Yeah. Anybody could lose a job at any point. Well, that's so true, eh? Yeah. If anything, OnlyFans is the more secure job because she's not going to fire herself. No, she's... She's not going to make herself redundant.
Starting point is 00:42:37 And unless the platform goes under... Yeah. Then... Even then, they've all got multiple accounts. Yeah. They're all on different platforms. Probably can move to something else. Anyway, she ended up getting the loan,
Starting point is 00:42:48 but she just thought that it was really unfair that some banks denied her because of her job. Banks do, and this is a law that came in recently, they do go through your bank statement to see. I know. I think that's so invasive. They go through line by line three months of your last
Starting point is 00:43:08 banking history. Do they go through checking in savings? No. They go through. Here's the account I use. Look at this one. For anybody who is looking to get on the property ladder soon or get a mortgage.
Starting point is 00:43:24 Get a separate bank account. They look at the account ladder soon or get a mortgage. Get a separate bank account. They look at the account that your wages get paid into. Oh, I'm not buying anything out of that account. If you have an automatic payment that comes out of that bank account once a week that says $700 living expenses and it goes to another account, they go, sweet, that's a perfectly reasonable thing. We know what that is. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:44 And then they don't check the other accounts. Can I just say I'm angry at the banks actually? Are you? I'm angry because they took away the fun game when you had to transfer your friend money from dinner or whatever it was and they took away the fun game that you played where you'd write a little funny description. Oh, fun police, the banks.
Starting point is 00:44:02 Yeah. Oh, no, we're going to actually stop you from buying your first home. You go, money for dicks. Strip club. Strip club is a good one. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Naked grannies. Bignaturals.com subscription.
Starting point is 00:44:22 You know, last time we bought a house, the bank questioned us. And they'll do this to anybody because – How many jerseys you were buying. How many Warriors and all those jerseys. That's fair, though. That is fair. That is a worry. Those are appreciating assets.
Starting point is 00:44:36 That is a worry. My wife's afterpays. Oh. And they'll do it to anyone with afterpay. If you have afterpay, the bank will go, uh-uh, no, sorry, those are lines of credit. We need you to either, no, we need you to close, they force you to close your Afterpays.
Starting point is 00:44:52 That seems so ridiculous. The Afterpays, she didn't even owe any money. They were paid off. Well, you just had to close them. But because she had an account with Afterpay, they were like, no, no, close that. Oh, jeez. Such no, no, close that. Jeez.
Starting point is 00:45:09 Such straight 180s, eh? Uber Eats is a big one. The bank will judge how often you have Uber Eats. Yeah. Yeah. I'm surprised that they, I mean, I did hire someone to wipe all of that history from my bank accounts, but, you know. It's amazing you've got a house. Money well spent. But, you know, money well spent.
Starting point is 00:45:26 I thought we could put it out there this afternoon on 0800DIALS at M. What was on your bank statement where the bank were like, wait a second, what is this? And you had to explain yourself. What questionable thing in your banking history did the bank have to speak to you about? You got in trouble.
Starting point is 00:45:46 Bree and Clint. What was on your bank statement that the bank were like, wait a second, explain this please, before giving you a loan? Some very interesting ones. Let's start with this person who wants to be anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hello. What was the anomaly, shall we say, on your bank statement? Before buying our house about three and a half years ago, we were putting drugs with a Z and cities on our bank statement. Drug?
Starting point is 00:46:22 Mostly for food, which it probably would have been better if it was just under food. But, you know, and it like saves it for you when you've paid somebody for it. Yeah, yeah. So you can just do it with ease. Drugs with a Z in titties.
Starting point is 00:46:36 So the bank weren't happy with you spending so much money on drugs and titties. Yeah, exactly. Which part did they like less? Was it the drugs or the titties? Good question. Yeah, great question. Probably did they like less? Was it the drugs or the titties? Good question. Yeah, great question. Probably the drugs.
Starting point is 00:46:49 Probably, eh? Probably the drugs. Titties are legal in most cities. Yeah, actually, hashtag legalised titties. Thank you, Anonymous. That's so good. This one's similar to that. They said, we went on a friend holiday away
Starting point is 00:47:02 and I had booked the accommodation. My friends wrote on the transfers back to me and the references were butt stuff, meth, and other things I can't say on the radio. Of course, that was in the three-month statement period the bank needed for my loan approval. Sorry, it says here that you have been transferred a lot of money for butt stuff and meth. Care to explain? Are they related? This is juicy.
Starting point is 00:47:32 I'm a divorce lawyer and I often see purchases at Bendon, Peaches and Cream or dating sites leading up to a separation. Grounds for divorce. That's awkward, eh? What about this? When I bought a house, the bank thought I was spending an extra 400 bucks a month on food than what I had originally advised in my mortgage
Starting point is 00:47:52 application. Shame on them. I was purchasing petrol once a week through New World because it was cheaper than the gas station. Yeah, at least that's what you told them. They go that deep on it? The bank didn't like my vaping. Haha. But my Mitre 10 purchases were the biggest issue.
Starting point is 00:48:07 How much were you purchasing from Mitre 10? How much were you spending on vaping? Not me, but my partner. We went out to Sky City for a date night once, and then they wanted to speak to him in private in case I wasn't aware of potential gambling issues. Wow. Fascinating.
Starting point is 00:48:25 Can you imagine the people at the bank where they're like, oh, no, I've got to talk to this woman separately. No, they talked to the husband separately because they didn't know if he had divulged his gambling habit. Well, they talked to him first. Yeah, but also, so you and me are a couple. We go there together. And then the bank manager's like,
Starting point is 00:48:41 can I see Clinton in private for a minute? It's not subtle at all. Yeah, and then what's going to happen? Of course, she's going to go, what the hell was that about? And I'll go, oh, no, they just wanted to know about that date we had at Sky City. And then you're going to go, bullshit, they did. What do they really want to talk to you about? Yeah, what's on your bank statement?
Starting point is 00:48:56 Show me. We've got a banker on the phone who says that we, what's the deal? Are we not entirely accurate with what we're saying, Mr. Banker, sir? Yes and no. I've been in banking 30 years and, you know, I get what you're saying. But we're really covered, we're really under strict regulations from the Reserve Bank. Yes.
Starting point is 00:49:16 We have to make sure people can afford a house. There's nothing worse if we approve a loan. Yeah. And then they can't afford it and we kick them out on the street and do a mortgage e-mail. But, Mr. Banker, like what makes you guys think that I can't afford a mortgage and drugs and titties? And butt stuff and meth.
Starting point is 00:49:33 I do love that. We actually, those things you still can put on your bank statement and we do have a chuckle over those. Okay, good. There you go. But you can, as long as you've got the account name and number right, we don't care what. In fact, we do laugh. What's something you
Starting point is 00:49:48 would be concerned about on the bank statement? Excessive gambling. Okay, that's fair. We just have to make sure people can, what they're getting in as income, they can afford. Just asking for a friend, Anonymous. Yeah, of course.
Starting point is 00:50:06 Excessive gambling? Yeah, it's about excessive gambling. Does two lotto tickets a week count as excessive gambling? Not at all. Not at all. I do that. So, no, definitely not. Okay, sorry.
Starting point is 00:50:17 Have you had any wins? Well, I'm still on banking, so no. Right, right. Gotcha, gotcha. Oh, hey, thanks for the clarity. We appreciate it. No worries. I really appreciate it, guys. One last thing.
Starting point is 00:50:26 Can I talk to you off-air about a loan for a jet ski, please? Any time. Okay, great. Perfect. Hold there. Hold the line. He's like, so long as it's a two-seater. Bree and Clint.
Starting point is 00:50:40 Oh, technical error. 100% my fault, but I guess we'll just get into Birthday Banger. Bree and Clint. All I want for my birthday is a birthday banger. I was ready for Birthday Banger anyway. I clicked the wrong button. I'm really sorry. Bit distracted. It's funny to think, like, when you're listening to us in your car,
Starting point is 00:50:58 like, there is literally two of us controlling this whole thing. It's also not that hard, but... No, mate, you do a great job. Hey, thank you. And sometimes accidents happen. All right? And we move on. Lila's here.
Starting point is 00:51:11 Hi, Lila. Hi, Lila. Hi. How old are you, Lila? I'm 10, but I'm doing the birthday thing for my mum. Oh, perfect, Lila. Okay, do you know mum's name? Yep. Listen, I do. Okay, do you know mum's name? Yep, Lucinda.
Starting point is 00:51:26 Of course I do. Let's hope you know her name. Yeah, what am I talking about, Lila? That's silly for me. Yeah, her name's Mum. Silly. Hey, Lila, what is Lucinda's birthday? Oh, sorry.
Starting point is 00:51:39 That's the event of May 1976. Oh, you've crushed it, Lila. That's great from you. That means mum was 16 in 1992 and here's her birthday banner. Oh, Lila. Yeah? Can you tell your mum? This is one of my all-time favourite songs ever.
Starting point is 00:52:05 Mum, it's one of my all-time favourite songs ever? Mum, it's one of my all-time favourite songs ever. Oh, yes, Dame. Oh, and your mum likes it too. We've got two happy chappies in that car. Let's go to Blessing for the next one. Hi, Blessing. Hi, Blessing. Hi, how are you guys?
Starting point is 00:52:19 Good, mate. How's your day been? Pretty much busy. Busy? Are you on the way home now? Yeah, I'm in South Auckland traffic. Oh, I hear you on that. Traffic sucks, but remember, every day's a blessing.
Starting point is 00:52:35 Yeah, that's right. It really is, especially when you're with you. What is your date of birth? 6th of September, 1994. All right, that means blessing you with 16 in 2010 and I feel like your birthday banger is going to suit you.
Starting point is 00:52:55 I knew it. What a ripper blessing. Do you like it? I love it, yeah. It's a tune. It's an absolute banger. Okay, wait there. We'll do one more birthday banger for Melanie. Hi, Melanie.
Starting point is 00:53:11 Hi, Melanie. Hi. First time caller as well. Wait a second. Let's go, Melanie. Also, it's Melanie. Our producers wrote it in as Melanie. But we've all made some mistakes this afternoon, okay?
Starting point is 00:53:24 I'm not going to throw rocks from my glass house. I've been sick for the last week. My voice is rough. When life gives you lemons, make Melanay. No, when life gives you melons, make Melanay. There we go. Hey, good to have you here finally, Melanie. What is your birthday?
Starting point is 00:53:46 3rd of July, 1996. All right, that means you were 16 in 2012. We've done the calculations and here's your birthday banger. It's a belter from Fun. This is peak millennial, this song right here. Fun, Some Nights. Jack Antonoff is in the band. He produced Taylor Swift's music and Lorde's music.
Starting point is 00:54:14 What do you think about this, Melanie? I'm a big Swiftie, so anything he's in, I'm here for. Yeah, okay. Good, okay, wait there. I will be voting for fun this afternoon. That has really excited me, that one. I do like that song. I'm going with Lila and her mum.
Starting point is 00:54:32 You know that I don't sway from to be with you, Mr Big. Mr Big. I know Claudia's going to vote for fun, but I just want Lila and her mum to know that I was with them. Claudia could vote for Tayo Cruz. Do you want to hear a fun fact? I know Claudia too well. Yeah, I want to hear a fun fact.
Starting point is 00:54:50 Ella's just found out who was in the band Fun. She thought Jack Antonoff was just Taylor Swift's producer. No, not just, but that's how I know him. He's in Fun. In fairness, let's be real. That's mind-blowing. Fun didn't have all that much fun. What do you mean?
Starting point is 00:55:04 They had maybe, what, one or two hits? No, they had an entire album of hits. And therefore, I want to hear some fun. Yeah. Name more than two fun songs. I couldn't name them, but I could sing every lyric. I promise you. The singer from Fun's in that song with Pink.
Starting point is 00:55:20 Anyway, that's not the point. Melanie. I love that song. You've just won birthday band. Congratulations. Thank you. And we that's not the point. Melanay. I love that song. You've just won birthday band. Congratulations. Thank you. And we love your name, Melanay.
Starting point is 00:55:29 Yeah, I think I'm going to have to switch it out. I think you stick with it. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, I think so. I'm going to take some Melanay before bed.
Starting point is 00:55:36 Some Melatone. Yeah, Melatone. From 2012, here's fun on ZM. Some nights I wish that my lips could build a castle. Some nights I wish the mileage could build a castle. Some nights I wish they'd just fall off.
Starting point is 00:55:49 Bree and Clint. God, school lunches are a hot topic in the news at the moment. It's all the government's talking about. It's all anyone's talking about. Some people are furious at the government for how bad they say the school lunches are, and other people are saying, well, bring your own bloody lunch if you're that angry. Why are we providing the lunches are, and other people are saying, well, bring your own bloody lunch if you're that angry. Why are we providing the lunches? One of the companies that has been making the school lunches has collapsed.
Starting point is 00:56:10 Oh, no. And now it's been revealed that we're shipping in school lunches from Australia. On Wednesday, some school students were served Australian beef lasagna or an Australian three-cheese macaroni. Yum. That seems a bit ridiculous. Sounds yum. Yum.
Starting point is 00:56:28 But I just think that sounds a bit ridiculous shipping them over from Australia. It made me think that maybe school lunches are just bitter in Australia. And then I remembered what you said to me. We don't have to bring that up. About your mum's school lunches. We don't have to talk about that. So I thought we's school lunches. We don't have to talk about that. So I thought we'd get her on the phone, an expert in Australian school lunches, Mama Di.
Starting point is 00:56:49 Hi. Hi, Mum. Hi, guys. How are you going? Sorry to drag you into this again. I don't know what Clint is talking about. Well, look, I've got broad shoulders. I started off well, Clint.
Starting point is 00:57:04 But by the time they all got to grade seven, I'd had enough. I was over it. Mum. Bree said to me, I know you've got broad shoulders and I know you can take it. So I'll shoot from the hip, Mumadai. Bree said to me that her school lunches were the worst. Well, in high school they were.
Starting point is 00:57:25 In primary school, not so bad. But every year that I went on, I'm afraid to say the packaging got, you know, more and more. Do you want me to be honest with you, Mum? It wasn't good. You are the most incredible mother that someone could ever ask for. And I mean that. That is coming from the depths of my gut, right?
Starting point is 00:57:46 You are an incredible woman. She's laying the safety mat. Like, I could not fault you unless we're talking about school lunches. Because, God, woman, I'll tell you what, that was slop that you put in our lunch boxes. Absolute slop. Yeah, and it became money towards the end of it because I couldn't care less. But all I can say is...
Starting point is 00:58:09 You know what my mum used to do? Wait a second, mum. You know what you used to do in high school? You gave up so badly that I would be like, mum, and you know what? Looking back, I should have been making my own damn lunches. But I said to you so many times, I was like, Mum, have I got any lunch today? And you're like, oh, nah, grab some money from my wallet
Starting point is 00:58:29 and there'd be, there would be $1.25 in there. I could barely buy anything. No, I've just decided something. I've just realised how I can become a millionaire. How? Well, come on. Hello, fresh. Hello, lunch.
Starting point is 00:58:50 Let's do it for the schools. Let's provide the best. Don't listen to the... Why are you coming up with the solutions? Don't listen to this woman when it comes to school lunches. I was giving out pashes and all kinds of things behind the bloody school shed so I could bloody eat. Look, I'm sure your lunches
Starting point is 00:59:07 weren't as bad as you are saying. I'm sure they weren't, Mama Di. They were pretty bad. But I've never really understand why you chose to go to boarding school until this moment. Neither. Maybe that's why, because she got better food.
Starting point is 00:59:23 Yeah, she went on the website and it said all meals provided and she was like, sign me up. I'll actually get to eat. Yeah, no, it wasn't good. Look, I can't be great at everything. No, no. Exactly right. And in all seriousness, though, let's be honest, I will say this.
Starting point is 00:59:43 No, I can't lie. They were absolute crap. No, no. No, I can't lie. They were absolute crap. No, no. Yeah, but let's finish. You always got a really good dinner. That's true. That is very, very true, Mum, and I will vouch for that. So there you go.
Starting point is 00:59:58 And I mean, you can't do... And a little slig of Mum's wine before beer day. Yeah, and I needed every bit of that dinner because I had nothing to eat for lunch. Super Rugby Marvel round this weekend. The Chiefs are wearing their Black Panther jerseys. I've seen all the jerseys. Quite cool, actually.
Starting point is 01:00:14 I own six, seven Chiefs jerseys. You have a problem. Yeah. I really want the Black Panther one. Isn't your wife super supportive of this hobby of yours, collecting rugby jerseys? She's banished me to the smallest closet in the spare room in the house
Starting point is 01:00:32 but that's okay because I haven't thought it... You've filled it? No. Well there's some winter coats in there that I need to take out. What, to make room for more jerseys? Yeah, it was my passion. I don't do anything else. I don't collect cars or Pokemon or bloody... I don't know. You did go through that Pokemon Go stage for a while.
Starting point is 01:00:48 I didn't. I never had a nerd phase. I only like rugby jerseys. Yeah, I was going to say, did you hear yourself? I only like rugby jerseys. I like to collect them from all the different eras. And then I've got a favourite team in each different code and then my goal for this year is to hopefully wear a different jersey
Starting point is 01:01:09 to every home game. Nerd. Yeah, I hear myself. I hear myself in you. Hey, it's good to have a nerd hobby. Oh, wow. Got a new one. Anyway, that's personal business and we'll leave the show there.
Starting point is 01:01:25 Thank you for joining us. We'll be back tomorrow on ZM with Friday Oki and... In a different jersey. In another jersey, yeah. See you guys. Bye. Mugger Warriors tomorrow. Play ZM's brand Clint.
Starting point is 01:01:38 On Insta, Facebook, TikTok, and live weekdays from 3 on ZM. Play ZM.
