Starting point is 00:03:40 Yeah. Okay, here we go, guys. Candice, your buzzer is lady. Tom, your buzzer is tradie. First of three correct answers wins $50 cash this afternoon. Good luck. Here comes question number one. Let's kick it off with a music based question. Can you tell me who sings this?
Starting point is 00:03:56 Lady. Yes, Candice. J-Lo. That is correct. J-Lo recently in the news because she got back with her old flame, Ben Affleck, apparently. All right, one to the ladies. Question number two. The Apprentice New Zealand kicked off this week.
Starting point is 00:04:12 Who is the main boss on the show? Lady. Yes, Candice. It was going to be multi-choice, but Candice is going for it. Mike Pirro. You're quick off the mark, Candice, and that is spot on. She's too quick. She's too quick.
Starting point is 00:04:24 Not to be confused with legendary broadcaster Mike Pudu Yes Yes, alright, shit No, you nailed it, Candice You're really up against the ropes here, Tom But you need this one, alright, mate? Yeah, yeah, yeah Alright, question number three
Starting point is 00:04:40 And Candice, you can take it here What is the difference between a latte and a flat white? Ladies. Oh, Candice for the win. Flat white has flat milk and a latte has foam. No, I'm not going to give you that. You're not going to give her that? Flat milk?
Starting point is 00:04:58 Yeah, like the milk's flat. Like, it's like not got any foam on top of it. It's flat white milk. Wait, do you... I'm a flat white drinker. Yeah. I'm a flat white drinker. Yeah, I'm a flat white drinker. I would have said the main difference was the amount of milk.
Starting point is 00:05:10 I would have said that. I would have agreed with that. Yeah, I would agree with that. Yeah, Tom would agree with that. Tom! Yeah. Look, we'll agree to disagree and Candice, you sound like you might.
Starting point is 00:05:18 Let's agree to disagree and let's void that question. All right, here comes question number four. Just do it is a tagline for what popular group? Just a lady. Oh, Candice. Nike. Nike is correct.
Starting point is 00:05:31 She's a lady. Oh, oh, oh, she's a lady. That is the sharp shooting lass from Palmy. You've got it, 50 bucks coming your way. Yes. She's so good. I'm nervous about that flat white question. I think she's probably right. And I would have given it to you've got it. 50 bucks coming your way. Yeah. She's so good. I'm nervous about that flat white question. I think she's probably right.
Starting point is 00:05:47 And I would have given it to you, Candice. I feel like you've been one of the best we've had to play the game so far. Unlucky, Tommy. What were we talking about yesterday when we had that call from that really tall guy? We're talking about top sheet or no top sheet. That's right. And we found an exception to the rule. If you are above, what do you reckon it is?
Starting point is 00:06:07 Six foot four? You don't have to use a top sheet. No, I just think you don't have to use a top sheet, full stop. No. But yes. No. Top sheets are a thing of the past. No, no. Top sheets are a preference unless you are so tall that you can't have a top sheet. I feel like if I have a
Starting point is 00:06:23 top sheet, I'm in a prison. Do they make super long beds? They must, eh? Yeah. You can get a super king, I'm pretty sure. Yeah, but that doesn't get longer. It only gets wider. Yeah, a super king, I think, gets longer.
Starting point is 00:06:33 Does it? Or do you sleep sideways? What's the thing that all the NBA players use? They must have custom beds, which means they must have custom sheets and custom duvets as well. God, that'd get expensive. Lucky you're in the NBA. Can you imagine making a giant bed? Like, I struggle to put a sheet on a queen bed.
Starting point is 00:06:52 Imagine trying to put a fitted sheet on a California king. This is our tall man on the show yesterday. Yes. Have you ever met anyone taller than you? My uncle's seven foot three. No! Six foot nine and 7 foot 3. Tall family.
Starting point is 00:07:08 Tall family. It's in the genes, right? You'd be gutted if you were in that family and you were like the black sheep and you were like a cheeky 5'9". 5'9", still not that short. No, I know. But imagine the family basketball game. They would just rip on you.
Starting point is 00:07:23 They would dunk on you all day and they'd go, oh, someone didn't eat their greens. Seven foot three. I don't think I've ever met someone that tall. You'd have to have custom everything in that household. Custom doorways. Oh, you'd have to have a custom toilet. Why?
Starting point is 00:07:36 Because you'd be touching your knees if you were on a normal person's toilet. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Can you imagine? If you were seven foot three and you sat on a normal toilet? Imagine trying to use the toilet in a 7'3 person's house if you were normal height and you had to climb up onto it. You're busting to go.
Starting point is 00:07:55 It's urgent. It's an emergency. And you're at Yao Ming's house and you're like, please, I'm busting. And he's like, yeah, yeah, just go and use the toilet. And then you have to go and find a step ladder to get onto it. Yeah, it'd probably be that tall. What does a seven foot three person do when they have to fly?
Starting point is 00:08:10 What do they do when they're buying a car? Well, surely there'd be certain cars that you just can't buy. Like a Swift would be out of the question. Completely out of the question unless you've got a Sport with a sunroof. Yeah, Suzuki Swift Sport. I think the inverse is true too. Super short families, you'd have to have custom things too.
Starting point is 00:08:28 You'd have to have custom toilets. We always talk about how short the Veronicas are because they are quite small. Yes. Have you met their mother? I haven't met their mother. Quite small. Yeah, well, makes sense. They're 4 foot 11, I'm pretty sure. Are they sub 5 foot? I'm pretty positive
Starting point is 00:08:44 they are 4 foot 11. Man, no wonder they're untouched. No one can reach them. Literally. You have to bend down. We want to talk to people this afternoon who are either from a super short or a super tall family. And it can't just be you. No, no, no. We want the collective.
Starting point is 00:09:00 Yeah, yeah, yeah. There needs to be a pattern. Is your whole family collectively super tall? Yeah, yeah. Or are you all collectively super short? We're taking sub five footers and we're taking over six. Sub five footers? Yeah, like the Veronicas. I reckon you should go five, five, two and under.
Starting point is 00:09:19 Really? Yeah, because under five foot is exceptionally short. Yeah, I know, but it doesn't impress me. If there's not a four in front, it doesn't impress me. No, fine. Okay, five, two. What do you want? What if the dad?
Starting point is 00:09:28 It's very specific, your one. Five, two and a half and under. What if the dad is five, one and then other people in the family are under? Well, stop showing off, dad. You're like, dad, stop wearing heels around us. Okay, you want under five, two and over six, five? Ooh, yeah, that's tall. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:46 Well, I'm not impressed by a 6'4. What if like the sisters or the mum in the family is 6'4 and then like the brothers and the dads are like... Oh, yeah, we've got special women's categories. You know what I mean? It's like the Olympics. You know? Okay.
Starting point is 00:10:00 Look, you know if you're tall and you know if you're short. They'll know. We'll take all the caveats off it and you just call us if you fit into either the category of a super tall or super short family, okay? 0800 DIAL ZM or you can text us on 9696. Bree and Clint. We're talking, we're trying to talk to super tall or super short families. Only people under three foot can call.
Starting point is 00:10:24 And only people over nine. Only people under three foot can call. And only people over nine. Only people over nine foot. We talked to a guy yesterday on the show who was clearly from a tall family. Have a listen to this. I'm six foot nine and I always just pushed it off. You're six foot nine, Mark? Yes.
Starting point is 00:10:39 Have you ever met anyone taller than you? My uncle is seven foot three. No! You'd be really concerned that your uncle was your real dad in that situation, eh? Because he didn't mention how tall his dad was, did he? He went to the uncle. He'd have to be tall. Yeah. He'd have to be tall if he's
Starting point is 00:10:54 producing a 6.9 kid. Oh, unless it's mum's brother. Yeah, look, there's lots of ways that this could work. Look at you just going for the sinister route. The scandal. Let's talk to Tim. Tim's here. Hi, Tim. Hi, Tim. Are you in a super tall or a
Starting point is 00:11:10 super short family? I'm going to guess off your voice because we've talked about this before. Can you say, just say, hi, my name's Tim. Hi, my name's Tim. It's tall. He's in a tall family. He's tall family. Yeah, so I'm 6'5". My
Starting point is 00:11:25 daughter, who's 31, is 6'1", and my son, who's 13, is 6'1". Jeez, 13 and he's 6'0"? Whoa! Yeah. How many Wee Bix is that kid eat for breakfast? Oh, too many. Tim, get him into sport.
Starting point is 00:11:41 Is he playing basketball or something? He was playing basketball, but he plays soccer, and it's really good. Canoe polo. Oh, yeah. Canoe polo. Is there an advantage to being tall in canoe polo? Hey, there's an advantage.
Starting point is 00:11:54 You've got big limbs. Everyone's the same height. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, they're all the same height. They sit on the water. Yeah, right. All right, so, yeah, you qualify as a tall family. Yeah, that's a tall family.
Starting point is 00:12:03 Let's go to Megan. Hi, Megan. Hi, Megan. Hello. Tall or tall family. Let's go to Megan. Hi, Megan. Hi, Megan. Hello. Tall or short family? Let's have a guess. Tell us what colour your hair is, Megan. My hair is a bit mixed.
Starting point is 00:12:15 It's brown and red. She's got a nice, cute, short voice. It's short voice. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Megan, you're from a short family? That's the one. Got it! How short are we talking, Megan? I am
Starting point is 00:12:27 four foot eight. I've got an auntie that's about four foot nine and my uncles all are about five foot. You guys would be so good at a limbo competition. I'm sure we would be. That's amazing, Megan. Have you ever felt like, because how tall are you, did you say? I'm four foot eight. Have you ever felt... This is what tall are you did you say? I'm 4'8 Have you ever felt This is what I wanted by the way Yeah you got it Megan have you ever felt like you were short
Starting point is 00:12:54 or what is short to you? Hey they say good things come in small packages you know I got to leave quite a bit but I finally learnt to not give any rats. Yeah, good. Absolutely, Megan.
Starting point is 00:13:09 I enjoy it. You know, I don't mind it now. Yeah. Megan, as a woman who is above average in height, I feel like I am, I can relate to you on the other scale, and after a while, you just don't give a shit about what other people think. Yes, that's the one. No time to worry about them. Exactly right. Good. Hopefully the whole family's
Starting point is 00:13:29 got the attitude. Let's go to Trista. Hi Trista. Hi Trista. Hi there. How are you? I already know that Trista's got a tall voice. I think I don't know. I think she's got a short voice. Really? Okay, Trista, are you from a tall or short family? I'm from a tall family. voice. Really? Okay, Trista, are you from a tall or short family?
Starting point is 00:13:46 I'm from a tall family. How tall are we talking, Trista? My dad's 6'8", my brother's 6'8", and my 13, just turned 13-year-old is 5'11". Wow. And how tall are you? I'm quite short, the family. I'm only 5'10 1⁄4". You're quite short.
Starting point is 00:14:02 Wow, you're like the exact same height as me. We're the short ones, Tristan. We were talking about customising things before. Did your family customise anything in the house growing up, like doorways or anything like that? Yeah, when my parents built a house, they went for high studs because Dad's so tall and he always has to duck through, through, go through doors that other people don't.
Starting point is 00:14:24 How many times when they were building that house did your Dad make the joke that, I'm a high stud? Actually, never, to be fair. But actually, yeah, I'll have a mum about that one. No, that's because your Dad has dignity, Trista. Possibly, possibly. Yeah, right. And we were talking before about beds for tall people.
Starting point is 00:14:43 We got a message from someone, we couldn't get them on. They have a customised 7'2 bed. Yeah, because they And we were talking before about beds for tall people. We got a message from someone. We couldn't get them on. They have a customised seven foot two bed. Yeah, because they're six foot nine. You'd just get sick of cold feet. You'd just do it. You'd have to. I'm trying to think of what else. Oh, you know what would be like terrible is a shower.
Starting point is 00:14:57 Yeah. Can you imagine going to a hotel and getting into a shower? You'd be like. It'd be hitting you in the middle of your stomach. Yeah, or even lower. Maybe you wouldn't change the shower in that case. Bree and Clint.
Starting point is 00:15:10 This is the latest. No D today, but massive, mahoosive news about Ellen and the Ellen Show. She announced today that she will be finishing up next year at the end of 2022. Yeah, crazy. The Ellen show's over. Yeah, we've got some audio
Starting point is 00:15:28 here of her talking about it. Today I have an announcement to make. Today I am announcing that next season, season 19, is going to be my last season. The past 18 years you have to know has changed my life. You all have changed my life. This show has been
Starting point is 00:15:44 the greatest experience of my life and I owe it all to you. I want you to know that I thought a lot about this decision. Two years ago I signed a deal for three more years and I always knew in my heart that season 19 would be my last. Amazing. Yeah, that's
Starting point is 00:16:00 crazy. Do you believe it? I think I do because I remember reading an article before all this controversy started. Obviously, that's happened in the last 18 months or so where she wanted to retire at 60 back in 2016. Okay. And they were like... Is she in her 60s?
Starting point is 00:16:16 She's 63. Wow. Yeah, she's the exact same age as my mum, actually. Oh, yeah? Yeah, which is wild. Your mum could take over from Ellen. Boom. Problem averted. No, funny you say, which is wild. Your mum could take over from Ellen. Boom. Problem averted.
Starting point is 00:16:26 No, funny you say that. Call the show Diane. There is a lot of rumours about who will replace her. Will the show continue on? A lot of stories swirling that Tiffany Haddish will be a great candidate and one of the front runners to take over. Yeah, that's a good one. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:44 Ricky Lake. She in the mix. I loved Ricky Lake. Yeah, that's a good one. Ricky Lake, she in the mix? I loved Ricky Lake. Go Ricky. Go Ricky. Who else? I mean, Kelly Clarkson is doing an amazing job. She's had her show for a little while. Rachel Ray? Rachel Ray. I think she's already got a show.
Starting point is 00:16:57 She does, but imagine she does some good cooking on there. Oh, you know who would be great? Graham Norton. Nigella Lawson. Oh, I'd watch that show. Yeah. I'd watch that show. Yeah, let's just think about that for a sec. who would be great? Graham Norton. Nigella Lawson. Oh, I'd watch that show. Yeah. I'd watch that show. Yeah, let's just think about that for a sec. That'd be great. Anyway, the Ellen DeGeneres show will finish up at the end of next year, 2022.
Starting point is 00:17:16 And that's the latest, everybody. Bree and Clint. Some stats have been released on how many New Zealanders are driving around without a warrant of fitness. You know what I think about this? What? I mean I drive this body around without a warrant of fitness. And that sticker on the back of your car
Starting point is 00:17:34 if you go to Les Mills that says warrant of fitness, different thing, doesn't count. Cop's not going to pull you over and go well I can see you haven't been to VTNZ. But it looks like you did go to a body attack class in 2016. You've got the thumbs up from me. So on your way.
Starting point is 00:17:49 Show us your muscles. Now, this is really interesting. First of all, I'll start off with this. How many cars do you think there are in New Zealand? So we're a population of five million. Five million. Yeah. Let's say.
Starting point is 00:18:00 I'll just tell you now, neither of my two daughters, they don't have cars. No, kids obviously don't have cars. I'm going to say. It'll just tell you now, neither of my two daughters, they don't have cars. No, kids obviously don't have cars. I'm going to say... It doesn't count those remote control ranges that you can drive your kid around in either? Three million? You think, what? Is that a lot?
Starting point is 00:18:13 You think there's three... Oh, actually, no, it's a pretty good guess, actually, but it's wrong. Am I close? Yeah, ish. 4.1 million cars. Okay. Which I thought was a lot of cars. That seems like a lot.
Starting point is 00:18:22 Considering no kids have cars. Who are all these people with two cars? Maybe a lot. Yeah, well, that means that there has to be, obviously, someone who literally has two cars. For every kid in that five million who doesn't have a car, someone has to have two cars. Anyway, it is estimated that currently on New Zealand roads,
Starting point is 00:18:39 the number of cars that are driving around that haven't had their brakes checked or their headlights checked or their steering wheels checked or their seatbelts checked. 400,000 cars. Oh, that is a fair few. It's incredibly scary when you think about the fact that those cars are driving towards you at 100 k's an hour and you're driving towards them at 100 k's an hour
Starting point is 00:19:02 and the only thing separating you guys is a bit of white paint in the middle of the road in a lot of the places? You know when my partner and I got together, we started talking about getting your car serviced. Oh, yeah. Was it euphemism or actually talking about cars? No, actually talking about getting your car serviced, and I said, you know,
Starting point is 00:19:18 when was the last time you got your car serviced? Yeah. Turns out, never. She's a non-car servicer. Yeah, and I said, you need to get your car serviced. Turns out never. She's a non-car servicer. Yeah, and I said you need to get your car serviced once a year. It's like going to the dentist. I used to be a non-car servicer
Starting point is 00:19:32 just the way I was raised. My dad doesn't service his cars and that's where I took my job from. Anyone out there listening, you need to have your car serviced. You do. I got one of those supermarket receipts and you know on the back it's got the vouchers and it said on the back it said $50 car service. And I was like, oh, mint.
Starting point is 00:19:48 I've never taken the Honda Accord in for a service. Let's take it in. Your last car that you owned, you'd never got it serviced. No, I got that Honda Accord serviced. I'm talking about the Honda Accord I owned before that one. That you had to sell because you didn't have it serviced. I actually gave it away in the end. I went in for my $50 service.
Starting point is 00:20:03 And they're like, when was the last time you had this serviced? And I said, never. And they said, cool. It needs $3,000 worth of work. And I said, where's my $50 service? They said, that's not exactly how it works. You idiot. They reckon that the reason there's so many cars out there with no wafts, partly because
Starting point is 00:20:19 of COVID. During COVID, we were allowed to let them lapse. Excuses, excuses. Well, no, they said we'll excuse you over COVID. They did, I remember, yeah. But they reckon a lot of people aren't back on their feet financially yet, so they're deprioritising. Because it's like going to the dentist.
Starting point is 00:20:36 You're so scared about what they're going to pull up on your car, and the more of a shitbox car you've got, the scarier that visit gets. But I mean, you know, your teeth aren't going to have a faulty airbag in it. No, no. Or have a wheel come off when you're mid, you know. Your teeth aren't going to go over a cliff because your jaw stops working. Yeah. So, yeah, that's it, 400,000 cars.
Starting point is 00:21:00 Seriously. Need a bit of a looking at. Bree and Clint. The return of a feature that we did a couple of times, and it's been bit of a looking at. Bree and Clint. The return of a feature that we did a couple of times and it's been away for a long time. But any time we have done it, it's been popular. Yes. And that's a popular opinion.
Starting point is 00:21:15 And that's a real coincidence because the segment is called Unpopular Opinions. What you do is you go out there and you state something that is often just plain wrong, but you believe it. You just go for it. It's finally your chance to have the floor to say exactly what you think that probably no one else thinks. Look, sometimes you find community in it. Sometimes you find people who agree with you and you go, oh my God, I'm not alone in believing this.
Starting point is 00:21:40 But sometimes you're out there on your own and you know it's an unpopular opinion, but it's your opinion. Yesterday we were talking about movies and producer Ben came forward with what we believe is just a straight out unpopular opinion. It's just wrong. I'd say it's just a stupid opinion. Let's bring him in now with that wonderful introduction. Producer Ben, good afternoon. Hello, producer Ben. G'day. Hi. When you're ready, Producer Ben, please state for us your unpopular opinion. I... No. No, you know the rules. No, you know the rules, Ben.
Starting point is 00:22:12 Unpopular opinion, but... Unpopular opinion, but I don't think Pulp Fiction is a very good film. Okay, well, you're just wrong. How could you say that? He's paired it back as well. He said yesterday Pulp Fiction sucks. Yeah, he goes Pulp Fiction is a horrific film. It's a bad movie.
Starting point is 00:22:30 Yeah, it isn't good. Listen to this, Ben. Listen. Describe what Marcellus Wallace looks like. What? Say what again. Say what again. I dare you.
Starting point is 00:22:41 I double dare you, mother******. Say what one more goddamn time. He's bald? Does he look like a b****? What? Ben, it's one of the greatest movies of all time. It's so good. It's so far up your alley as well.
Starting point is 00:22:52 I don't understand it. Yeah, it's so like spot on producer Ben material. Dialogue, costume, action, everything. It's got everything. What's your problem, man? I don't know. I've only ever watched it once, but just when I watched it, I was like, oh, yeah, okay, it's, oh, yeah, nah, it's got everything what's your problem man I don't know I've only ever watched it once but just when I watched it I was like
Starting point is 00:23:06 oh yeah okay it's oh yeah nah it's not great weren't you 12 when you watched it no I wasn't 12 alright it's perfect
Starting point is 00:23:13 it'll get some people riled up it's a good way to start it we'll each state an unpopular opinion and then we will give everybody listening the chance to share
Starting point is 00:23:20 their unpopular opinion yes I'll go second okay unpopular opinion but I actually I'll go second. Okay. Unpopular opinion, but I actually quite like those My Family stickers on the back of people's cars. I think they're fun,
Starting point is 00:23:32 and I think they should come back. No, you don't. You're just trying to get a reaction. No, I'm not. I think they're fun. I like to see what you're pecking. No, you don't. I like to see what you've got in there.
Starting point is 00:23:41 No, it does. No, I do. I never ever think to myself, oh, I wonder how many people that Toyota Corolla has in their family. I don't give a crap. Well, I didn't say it was a popular opinion, did I? I don't give a crap. And by your reaction, I'd say I'm nailed it.
Starting point is 00:23:57 I call BS. No, I love it. I'm going to get some. Clint loves to do this thing. Okay. Yeah. Hey, Producer Ben, there it is, the audio. Don't.
Starting point is 00:24:06 I will get them for you and I will put them on the back of your brand new Audi. No, I'll put them on Lucy's car. No, no. They're going on your car. You're the one that said you like them. The kids don't go on my car. The kids don't go on my car. All right.
Starting point is 00:24:17 Clint's getting some My Family stickers. That's great. We've got the audio. There's some content for next week. Well, that's fine. I love them. I think they're great. Yeah, excellent.
Starting point is 00:24:25 Your turn. I'm going to put them so they reach the for next week. Well, that's fine. I love them. I think they're great. Yeah, excellent. Your turn. I'm going to put them so they reach the entire back window. No, you can't because I don't have any in my family. Yeah, but I'm just going to pre-empt that. You're going to have like 16 children. Unpopular opinion, but Seinfeld, not that funny. Oh, no. Oh, mate.
Starting point is 00:24:43 Oh, mate. You've producer-bend yourself. You've gone out there with a straight, like, false statement. No, it... Hasn't aged well. Hasn't aged well. Hasn't aged well. It's the most successful television show of all time.
Starting point is 00:24:56 Yeah, but is it? Is it, though? It is. That's coming from a Seinfeld fan. They played the final episode of Seinfeld in Times Square. It was such a big deal that they screened it in Times Square. I didn't say it was a popular opinion. Oh, she's got us there.
Starting point is 00:25:10 We want to know yours. 0800 DALS at M. You can text us on 9696. The phone lines are yours. We'd love you to call and play this. All you've got to do is state unpopular opinion, but and then you can say whatever you want. Damn the consequences.
Starting point is 00:25:25 Screw who it offends. Back yourself. We want to hear it. Go on. This is Dua Lipa. 0800 dials at end where you can text 9696. Bree and Clint. We are talking this afternoon unpopular opinions
Starting point is 00:25:37 after producer Ben came in with the hottest take that Pulp Fiction is not a good movie. I mean, don't agree with that. No, I don't agree. But it's interesting. Some people on the text machine do. Yeah, fair enough. Some people also agreed with me that Seinfeld, not that funny.
Starting point is 00:25:53 Yeah, a couple in there. There's also some texts that say that Friends is overrated. There's quite a few actually saying that. No one has agreed with my family stickers? No, because they were cool, never. If I take it back, will you not put them on my car? Nope. You've said it now.
Starting point is 00:26:12 Right, okay. We do these things. Lessons learned. Let's get some on. All you've got to do is come on and say unpopular opinion, but, and then you can say whatever you want. Holly's here. Hi, Holly. Hi, Holly. Hi. What's your unpopular opinion? Unpopular opinion, but
Starting point is 00:26:27 tomato sauce sucks. You don't like tomato sauce? No, it's so sweet and it's meant to go in salty things, but it just doesn't make sense. What do you put on your sausage roll? Nothing. What? You have a dry sausage roll.
Starting point is 00:26:46 You raw dog it. Yeah. Right, okay. Oh, Holly. My dad has a tomato sauce phobia. He hates it, eh? He's scared of it, yeah. But I think if he could stand it, he'd eat it.
Starting point is 00:26:59 Has he ever even tasted it? No. Oh, he's messing it up. He's scared of actually all sauces. He doesn't like aioli either. He doesn't like anything that's like a condiment, right? No, he's condiment sensitive. Okay, there's lots of these on the
Starting point is 00:27:12 text machine. Someone texted and said, unpopular opinion, but bacon sucks. It's just greasy ham. Oh, come on. Come on now. Someone said, unpopular opinion, but Heath Ledger isn't even a good joker. Oh.
Starting point is 00:27:26 That one's harsh. And you're kicking him while he's down. Yeah, he doesn't ever write a rebuttal. Because he can't reply. I thought he was amazing as the joker. Like we said, some of these are just straight wrong. Like your one, that Seinfeld isn't funny. Some of them are just wrong.
Starting point is 00:27:38 That family car stickers are cool. Let's talk to Matt. Hey, Matt. Hi, Matt. Hey, how you going? Good, thanks. When you're ready, tell us your unpopular opinion. I think the All Blacks are overrated.
Starting point is 00:27:54 Holy hell! Now, Matt, what makes you think that the All Blacks are overrated? Well, there's only really three teams in the world that can win rugby, so I don't think it's that big of a deal. Right. I mean, I see the logic of where he's coming from. Well, there's more than three, but right. Is there really, though?
Starting point is 00:28:19 Look, Matt, you're entitled to your opinion, and you've stated it. He didn't say it was a popular opinion. Yeah, for the record, I'll say that you are wrong, but that's my opinion. I'm not commenting on rugby union because I'm from Australia where we suck. There's a lot of the text machine. Someone else said unpopular opinion,
Starting point is 00:28:39 but most babies are really ugly. Whoa. Look, as someone who's had a couple, they definitely take a bit of time. They take a time to warm up. Yeah. Yeah, like when they first come out, they need some time.
Starting point is 00:28:52 How hot do you think you would be if you'd just been squeezed out of a tunnel the size of a bloody straw? And if you were sitting in a bath in water for like nine months. You go get in a spa for nine months and then get squeezed out through a hose and let's see how good you look. There is some savage ones.
Starting point is 00:29:10 Someone else said, unpopular opinion, but I don't care about the whales. That's full on. Full on. Katrina's also caught up. Hi, Katrina. Hi, Katrina. Hi.
Starting point is 00:29:23 Oh my God, you're going to do it. I've just seen what yours is. You're actually going to say it. When. Oh, my God, you're going to do it. I've just seen what yours is. You're actually going to say it. When you're ready, unpopular opinion, but go for it. Unpopular opinion, but friends sucks. Katrina. I'm probably going to lose friends over it, but, you know. Katrina, can I ask you, as someone who hates friends,
Starting point is 00:29:42 you're saying you don't like friends, what do you think of the Big Bang Theory? It's better than friends. Oh, get out of here, Katrina! Get out! That's all we needed to hear, really. Get out of here, Katrina! That says it all. You've ruined my whole week!
Starting point is 00:29:58 Bree and Clint. There's a story today that is popping off on Reddit, and it's a Kiwi man. Yeah, I read it. Yeah, good read it. Go on, mate. It's about a Kiwi guy who is abusing his Marmite privileges. Oh, no. Or so this thread
Starting point is 00:30:13 thinks. You know when you see someone who just eats something weird? Have you seen that before? Oh, yeah. You see people who eat, I don't know, what's an example? Like people who eat sushi with a knife and fork. You're like, up to. Who's doing that?
Starting point is 00:30:27 Well, this guy would. Okay. This has been posted to Reddit today and it's going off. I'm going to read it to you. A guy at work sat on the beanbag with marmite on toast and a cup of tea. Can I say that's a delightful break to take at work? Yep. Inexpensive, little bit of you time.
Starting point is 00:30:43 It's fine. Delightful. He was dipping his marmite on toast into his cup of tea and taking bites of it like it was a goddamn ginger nut biscuit. Don't you remember this story that I've told you before? No. Remember I've told you when we talked about weird food combinations, my cousin, his name is Ryan, used to do this exact thing but swap the tea out for coffee.
Starting point is 00:31:06 Oh, yes, I do remember. Oh, yeah. Psychopath. I think it's something to do with, I think it actually, some people's taste buds, it's actually a good thing. Who wants a soggy piece of Marmite toast? Yeah, not for me. And who wants a yeasty tasting cup of tea?
Starting point is 00:31:21 Yeah. They said when queried on his frankly strange behaviour, he claimed that it wasn't very weird and that a lot of people do it. They don't. Isn't it interesting like how our taste buds as humans can be so different? Like people can be born without, you know,
Starting point is 00:31:39 coriander makes it taste like soap in some people's mouths. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh, you think this is like a genetic thing? Your cousin and this guy- I think it could be, yeah. Have got a genetic predisposition to soggy Marmite on toast. Yeah, I think it could be. Well, if that is you, here's a chance for you to learn
Starting point is 00:31:55 what the rest of the world thinks of you. I've got some of the comments from the Reddit story. One person wrote, What an animal. Has he no teeth? No teeth? Has he no teeth? Someone person wrote, what an animal. Has he no teeth? No teeth? Has he no teeth? Someone else wrote, call the Hague. That's an
Starting point is 00:32:11 effing war crime. Someone wrote, my workmate's afternoon tea involves dipping buttered bread in his tea. Just buttered bread. You're still strange. To which someone pointed out that butter is essentially just fat and when it melted in the tea
Starting point is 00:32:28 it would rise to the top and just sit like a layer of oil on top of your cup of tea. Disgusting. And then someone else wrote that has just made me remember that my brother used to dip Marmite on toast in his Milo. That's so weird.
Starting point is 00:32:44 Someone has just text through on 9696 and it says, Me, my kids and my sister loved Vegemite on toast dipped in Milo. Yeah, right? We need to try this, I reckon. Do we need to try it? I reckon we do.
Starting point is 00:32:59 Do we have to try everything? Someone else said on 9696, Peanut butter on toast dipped in coffee. Yum. Yeah, no. Okay, all right. Line it up. Something else said on 9696, peanut butter on toast dipped in coffee. Yum. Yeah, no. Okay, all right. Line it up. Something's going on here.
Starting point is 00:33:09 Maybe you give it a go and report back. Why am I giving it a go? Well, someone has to. Kia ora, I'm Jane Yee. I'm Alex Casey. And I'm Duncan Grave. We are the hosts of The Real Pod and Confession Cam Time. We bloody love reality telly.
Starting point is 00:33:24 If we sound like your type on paper, join us each week for your fix of reality TV news, recaps and gossip. On The Real Pod, it's perfectly fine to like reality TV. It's a safe space, so let down your walls, wear your heart on your sleeve and remember, it is what it is.
Starting point is 00:33:40 And what it is, is The Real Pod. Brought to you by the Spinoff Podcast Network and available wherever you get your pods. Absolute wild story out of Brisbane, Australia in the last week. There's a woman named Angie Yen. She's Australian. She's grown up in Australia. And recently she had her tonsils taken out.
Starting point is 00:34:05 Right. You know, pretty standard surgery, quite painful, but she had her tonsils removed and it was 10 days later that she kind of found out that she had an Irish accent. She woke up with an Irish accent 10 days later. I've heard about people having this happen after an operation or a traumatic head event or something like that. It's actually called foreign accent syndrome.
Starting point is 00:34:33 Yeah. It's a real thing. It's very rare. But people have been known to wake up with a completely different accent than what they've grown up with. Okay. So this woman that we're about to hear, she's Australian. She is Australian.
Starting point is 00:34:47 She should sound like you. She should sound like me. She's grown up in Australia. Let's take a listen. I woke up with an Irish accent and I've never been to Ireland before. I spent the whole day yesterday freaking out about why this is happening to me. And I went to the hospital and I also called my specialist and asked them why this is happening to me and i went to the hospital and i also called my specialist and asked them why this is happening and they couldn't provide any answers at this
Starting point is 00:35:11 stage i don't think it's going to get better how terrified would you be okay um imagine if i rolled into work and i started talking in an Irish accent You wouldn't believe me, would you? It's not a very good Irish accent I know, but that's the thing That makes it worse, eh? That makes it worse That's not a very good Irish accent
Starting point is 00:35:36 It sounds like she's taking the piss out of the Irish accent Yeah, yeah, yeah Because if she had woken up And she had a fully fledged, flawless Irish accent You'd go Oh my God, this is real. Because it's not very good, she's going to be called into question over and over.
Starting point is 00:35:51 They'll just be going, stop it. But it is real. It is a real thing. According to her. No, don't say that. It is a real thing. I'm saying the syndrome is real. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:03 Yeah. Yeah. And her version of it is real according to her. Yeah. Yeah. That's all I'm saying the syndrome is real Yeah Yeah Yeah And her version of it Is real according to her Yeah Yeah That's all I'm saying What do you mean?
Starting point is 00:36:10 Are you saying she's faking it or not? What are you saying? I woke up with an Irish accent And I've never been to Ireland before I spent the whole day yesterday Freaking out About why this is happening to me And I went to the hospital
Starting point is 00:36:23 And I also called my specialist And asked them why this is happening, and they couldn't provide any answers. At this stage, I don't think it's going to get better. I'm just saying if that was me, I probably wouldn't have put a club on the internet. I just... I feel bad for her, though. She's had to go in for tests and MRIs.
Starting point is 00:36:44 They thought she was having a stroke. Right, okay. Yeah. Like I said, it not being a very good Irish accent makes it a lot worse. Probably because she's never been to like Ireland. Yeah. So maybe she's picked it up from. Can you get the accent from anywhere in the world with this syndrome?
Starting point is 00:36:59 I'm pretty sure. I remember watching a show and she was American and I think she woke up with an English accent. Yeah, right. What accent would you like to wake up with? Oh, great question. Like if you had to pick one, what would you pick? I think she's in the right hemisphere.
Starting point is 00:37:15 I think I'd go Scottish. I think I'd like a nice manly Scottish accent. No, you back off my turf. Why? You know that Scottish is my favourite. No, it's mine. You back off my turf. No, that's mine. I said it first. You back off. No, that's mine.
Starting point is 00:37:25 I said it first. I said it first. You back off. Look here, Lassie. I said it first. That was like German slash Scottish. Just because you're too scared to give it a go. But before then, we have to compete for $400 cash.
Starting point is 00:37:40 Once upon a time, there was a girl. She was smart, debatable, talented, eh, athletic. Not really, but picking a movie title based on just the plot line, that she can do. Brie and Clint's What's the Plot? An absolute staple of the Brie and Clint show where you go head-to-head with Brie, our movie-guessing wizard, to see who knows more movies.

Starting point is 00:38:49 some people go, I feel like crying. And so they put on a really sad movie. I gave up sad movies a while ago. Good. I think that's good for you.
Starting point is 00:38:57 It's not going to hold you in good stead today though. Katie, do you like a sad movie? Yep. Yep, at times. She doesn't give much away, eh? She doesn't give so much, does she She doesn't sell much, does she? She keeps her cards close to her chest. Okay,
Starting point is 00:39:07 Katie, to win this game, you're going to need a nice, loud, clear buzzer. It's your name. Breeze Buzzer is her name. Good luck. Here comes movie number one. Young and quirky Louisa moves from one job to the next to help her family make
Starting point is 00:39:23 ends meet. Her cheerful attitude is put to the test when she becomes a caregiver for Will. Brie! Brie. Oh, what's the name of it? It's me something. Me Before You! Me Before You!

When our main character, a soldier, meets an idealistic college student, it's the beginning of a strong romance. Over the next seven tumultuous years and separated by our main character's increasingly dangerous deployment,
Starting point is 00:40:13 the lovers stay in touch through their letters, meeting in person only rarely. However, their correspondence triggers consequences that neither could foresee. Oh, that could be so many different movies. I think you need to hold on to the letters. Too vague. Too vague?
Starting point is 00:40:31 Yeah, I agree, Katie. Too vague? Next. No. Katie, should we go next? Well, you're going to have to go next because neither of you know it. It was Dear John. It was Channing Tatum.
Starting point is 00:40:40 That's the movie I thought it was, but I couldn't think of the name of it. That's the movie I thought it was. Well, why didn't you buzz in and say it? Because I didn't know the name of it. All right, we will avoid that, and we'll move on to movie number three. Hazel, a 16-year-old cancer patient. Bree. Bree.

Oh no, wait, that's just a... No, that is a cult. Is it? Yeah, it's a cult. It's a religious community ostracised for the rest

Starting point is 00:47:19 tell you what party to vote for. Because it happens around election time. People who go, people who are like passionately Labor or passionately National or passionately Greens. You're like, who's captured you?

Why do they wave to each other when they drive past each other? Yeah, because they all see each other at the meetings on the weekends. They all see each other at the service department when their jeep breaks down.
Starting point is 00:48:06 Let's go to Jack. Hi, Jack. Hi, Jack. Hey, guys. How's it going? Good, thanks. What feels a little bit cult-y? Star Wars. Oh, yeah. Absolutely. People naming their dogs after them. They've got the toys. There's Lego sets. Greetings.
Starting point is 00:48:22 May the 4th be with you. You're right. It's the same as Harry Potter, right? I've taken to the count that I just picked up a lightsaber from New Zealand Careers. Boys, there's Lego sets. Greetings, may the fourth be with you. You're right, it's the same as Harry Potter, right? Taken to the camp that I just picked up a lightsaber from New Zealand Careers. Jack, you are a member of the cult. You're the best type, though, because you can admit it. Cough once if you need help, Jack. Let's go to Kylie. Hi, Kylie.
Starting point is 00:48:40 Hi, Kylie. Hi. Surfing. What feels like a cult but isn't a cult? Surfing. Oh, yeah, yeah, Hi. Surfing. What feels like a cult but isn't a cult? Surfing. Oh, yeah, yeah, surfing. Surfing, oh, yeah. I thought you said knitting at first, and I think they're both right.
Starting point is 00:48:53 Yeah, knitting or surfing. Yeah, surfing's got its own language. Yeah, and they have to pay to be on the websites to check the cans, and as soon as the swell's coming, they're all ringing all secretive and then they disappear at five o'clock in the morning and you can't contact them. It's like, yep, they're gone. It's got all the hallmarks of a cult, Kylie. Where do they actually go?
Starting point is 00:49:13 This is a really good point. Now is a good time to check in on your surfy friend and just say are you okay? Surfy friends, combi van owners. Combi van owners, absolutely, yeah. On the vehicle front, Ford Ranger drivers. Yeah. Feels like a cult.
Starting point is 00:49:29 Someone on the text machine said people who buy brand new Audis. Some of these feel pointed. It's not brand new. That's not a cult either. We don't want anyone else to join. Let's get Katie on the phone. Hi, Katie. Hi, Katie.
Starting point is 00:49:42 Kia ora, guys. How are you going? Good, thank you, mate. What feels a bit cult-like to you? Now, I need to admit, I am one of these cult members. Oh, you're in the cult? Yeah, totally. My husband would say so.
Starting point is 00:49:54 People who own Dysons. Oh, yes. Absolutely, Katie. My husband horrified at how much I rave about it every time I crack it out. So, it's one of them. My husband horrified at how much I rave about it every time I crack it out. Is it just the vacuum or have you progressed to the Dyson hair dryer and the Dyson stick blender and everything else? No, I'm too cheap for that. Just a cheap vacuum.
Starting point is 00:50:17 I've never met a cheap Dyson owner. Sorry, those two words don't go together. My mum has one and she's cheap. It's worth every cent, but not everyone would agree. Stop trying to recruit us, Katie. Yeah, Katie, what is this? This is not a recruitment drive. We didn't open the phone lines for you to recruit us.
Starting point is 00:50:35 So let's go to Melanie. Hi, Melanie. Hi, Mel. Hello, hello. Clint, this one might apply to you. Right. People who own thermomixers and air fryers. Both of those apply to Clint.
Starting point is 00:50:51 He's got them both. Oh, really? He's got them both. Well, he usually would tell you all about it, wouldn't he? Well, can I just say, Melanie, that both of them are fantastic appliances that will save you time and money in the kitchen. I feel like we're going to get a radio complaint. I've never had more satisfaction from meal preparation or meal enjoyment.
Starting point is 00:51:11 Oh, my God. My brain feels weird. I need to go buy a Thermomix. Thanks, Melanie. Bree and Clint. Clint. Hey. It's my birthday.
Starting point is 00:51:22 It's my birthday. Bree and Clint's Birthday Banger. All right, Birthday Banger time. Here. Hey. It's my birthday. It's my birthday. Three and Clint's Birthday Banger. All right, Birthday Banger time. Here we go. Three people's birthdays. What was number one on their 16th? Well, we're going to play the best one in full. Carl's here.
Starting point is 00:51:35 G'day, Carl. Hi, Carl. How you going? Good, thanks, Carl. What's your birthday? 30th of the 4th, 71. 3rd of the 4th, 71. That means you were 16 in 1987 on the 30th of April.
Starting point is 00:51:48 And in 87, this had a number one hit. Won't you take me to a funky town? That song, honestly, haunts us. Do you like it, Carl? First and foremost, it's your birthday banger. Do you like it? Oh, it's there for the time. It's there for the time.
Starting point is 00:52:06 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, fair enough, Carl. It's a moment. You were there. You were 16 years old. Enough said, I guess. I don't mind it. Yeah, it's all right.
Starting point is 00:52:13 Let's get one on for Lizzie. Hi, Lizzie. Hi, Lizzie. Lizzie, are you with us? Lizzie. We'll come back to Lizzie. Let's go on to Alicia. Hi, Alicia.
Starting point is 00:52:24 Hi, Alicia. Hi, Alicia. Hi, guys. How are you? I'm good, thanks. That's good. What's your birthday, Leesh? 26 of November 1988. All right.
Starting point is 00:52:34 You were 16 in 2004 on the 26th of November. And in 2004, this reached the top of the chart. Oh, huge. What a song. What a music video. Eric Prince. Yeah, Eric Prince. And Colin Meade.
Starting point is 00:52:53 Colin Meade. Great song. Do you like it, Alicia? I like the song. Yeah, it's good, eh? That's a real... It's a very uplifting song. That's a real throwback for me.
Starting point is 00:53:02 And not many people will get this reference, but it reminds me of the Holy Grail Bar in Christchurch. Is that still around? Nope. Nope. That's how old you are. No. Right there, Alicia.
Starting point is 00:53:14 Let's go back to Lizzie. Lizzie, you still with us? Hi, Lizzie. Yes, I am. You're back. Hi, she's back. What were you up to, Lizzie? I was fiddling with my phone.
Starting point is 00:53:24 Oh, yeah. Toilet break. You do have a fiddle sometimes. We all do. Lizzie, what's your birthday? Speak for yourself. The 1st of August, 1960. All right, Lizzie, you were 16 in 1976 on the 1st of August.
Starting point is 00:53:39 The 70s. What a decade. Here's your birthday bag. I won't go breaking my heart. Whatanger. Don't go breaking my heart. What? I won't go breaking your heart. Elton and Kiki D. Good.
Starting point is 00:53:51 Amazing. Don't go breaking my heart, Elton John. Do you like it, Lizzie? I do like it. It's very good. It's very good. I love it. Brie and I did this as a duet once for Friday Oaky.
Starting point is 00:54:04 That's right. We did too. It's also the song they played it. Brie and I did this as a duet once for Friday Oaky. That's right. We did too. It's also the song they played at the Elton John concert in Auckland when he had to go off stage early when he definitely had COVID-19, but before COVID-19. Oh, wow. It was called COVID-19. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:54:16 That's my memory of the song anyway. It's kind of tainted for me. But it's a great song. Okay, wait there, Lizzie. We need to choose between Funky Town for Carl, Call on Me for Alicia, and Elton John for Lizzie. What's your gut telling you this afternoon, Brie? I want you to say what you're going to pick first.
Starting point is 00:54:32 I get great memories, and I'm making a purely personal decision this afternoon to go with Eric Prince and Call On Me. Eric Prince. Yeah, Eric Prince, Call On Me. It's upbeat. I think we need an upbeat banger. I agree.
Starting point is 00:54:42 Are we in? Yeah, we're in. We're in. Okay, that means Alicia, you've won upbeat banger. I agree. Are we in? Yeah, we're in. We're in. Okay, that means... Alicia, you've won birthday banger. Congratulations. Yay! Get your leg warmers ready, Leash.
Starting point is 00:54:52 I've got my hands pumping. Good stuff. Does anyone remember the Holy Grail or is it just me? TXS on 9696. You were there? Yeah, I was there. You were there at the last supper? Jeez, you are old. You were there at the last supper? Jeez,

Starting point is 00:57:24 A lot of memories of the Holy Grail coming through on the text machine. A lot of love. If you'd like to take a quick walk down Christchurch's clubbing hall of fame, the Holy Grail, Shooters, the Bog, Irish Bar, just to name a few, Bree. I feel sad that I missed out on some of those amazing sounding establishments. They sound great. Yeah, I saw Dan Carter in one of them one time and he was wearing a pair of pink fluffy earmuffs.
Starting point is 00:57:53 It's a memory of mine and I'll hold on to it until the day I die. That's unusual for Dan Carter. I got good news for anyone with a cat allergy. I've found out how to beat it. I know once and for all how you can enjoy a pussy-filled life without fear of sneezing, runny nose and itchy eyes. Rehome your cat. Simple.
Starting point is 00:58:16 Easy. As a man with quite a severe cat allergy. Why do you have cats? Because my wife. Because she loves, she wanted them. And my job is, I love to make her happy. I love to make her happy. I know, but at the expense of your allergy?
Starting point is 00:58:30 Can I say, it may be a coincidence that we stumbled upon two cats that I'm not that allergic to. Or I could have got used to them. I don't know what it is. You have a runny nose 24-7. Yeah, but how do you know it's related? I know it's from them. You've got cat hair all over you all the time.
Starting point is 00:58:47 Do you want to hear these? These are surefire ways to beat a cat allergy. Okay. A list's been released. First thing you can do to beat a cat allergy, keep your house ventilated. I mean, pretty easy. Open a window, open a door.
Starting point is 00:58:59 It's not great in winter when it's cold. No, no, let the cat hair blow out. But I mean, that's what you've got to do for your cat. Sometimes have the house cold. The cat won't mind. The cat's got a fur coat. It's also not allergic to itself. No, no, I've never seen a cat.
Starting point is 00:59:13 So it's all good to go. I've never seen a cat with a cat allergy. Can you imagine? Number two, these are tips for how to beat a cat allergy if you really want a cat in your life. Keep surfaces clean when possible. Yeah, I mean, that makes sense. Just constantly go around your house with the Dyson.
Starting point is 00:59:31 Just buy a holster for the Dyson and just keep it holstered like a pistol. Cat hair goes everywhere, though. It literally does. It literally just clings onto things. If you have more than one cat, too, you'll vacuum it in an hour later. The other cat runs through the house and poof. Well, this is what you've got to do if you want to beat the allergy. Number three, tips for avoiding
Starting point is 00:59:50 a cat allergy. Change your cat's diet. Because I don't know if you know this, but it's actually not the cat hair that you're allergic to. It's the saliva. It's the protein in the saliva. So you can find a cat food that neutralises the protein in the mouth and reduces allergens in the cat hair. You know that's the same for mosquitoes?
Starting point is 01:00:06 Is it? You're not allergic to, you know what makes you itchy, it's their saliva. Is it? Yeah. Isn't it gross to think that mosquitoes have saliva? I know. And their mouth is watering at the sight of your arm. They're like, oh, give me some of that blood.
Starting point is 01:00:19 Oh, yeah. Sweet, sweet blood. Give me some of that blood. Number four on the list of ways to beat a cat allergy. This is, I think, the most practical one. Keep your cat moving. What do you mean? This could include...
Starting point is 01:00:35 Moving away from you? Just moving, constantly moving. It says it could include keeping the cat outdoors as often as possible and limiting its time in certain areas of the house to avoid big build-ups of hair and dander. So if you see the cat, it likes to sleep on the couch just every 45 minutes. Cats love to be touched and moved.
Starting point is 01:00:53 Just go and poke them. So that's good. I love the idea of just chasing your cat around the house for the whole day. Don't sit on that. Don't sit on this. Don't. Keep moving.
Starting point is 01:01:01 Get out of there. Move along, cat. You've been there for too long. And the last way to beat a cat allergy, protect yourself at all times. And I haven't looked at the info on that one. I think they're talking full body condom. Oh, you can wear a helmet. Yeah, helmet.
Starting point is 01:01:16 Wear a helmet around the house. Motorbike helmet. Full motorbike helmet. Protection. You'll be good to go. These are all great ideas. Kia kaha, New Zealand. Good luck with your cats. Let's talk Bruce Lee
Starting point is 01:01:28 for a minute. That's not actually Bruce Lee. We couldn't afford the rights to... No, it's copyright. But, you know, he's known for his incredible martial arts. Yes. And philosophy as well. Acting prowess.
Starting point is 01:01:44 And philosophy. He's an incredible human. Do you know my favourite Bruce Lee quote? What? And actually, this is my only Bruce Lee quote. Okay. Where he says, when water is poured into the glass, water becomes the glass.
Starting point is 01:01:59 Be like water. Which is, I think. Moulds into your surroundings. Oh, I got it. Did you see that? Yeah, or stay moist. is, I think. Mould into your surroundings. Oh, I got it. Did you see that? Yeah, or stay moist. Yeah, either or. Both great things to live by, actually.
Starting point is 01:02:12 But there's an article about him today because they're talking about his infamous push-ups that he created. Right. Do you know about this? No. So back in 1964, Bruce Lee demonstrated for the first time publicly his two finger push-ups. Oh. Have you seen him do it? I've heard of this. I've never seen it done before. It's incredible. So when you say two finger
Starting point is 01:02:35 push-ups, is it two fingers per hand? Two fingers per hand. Right. Yeah. Okay. Two fingers per hand. I got some stats because it's believed that Bruce was able, I don't know if he's doing this anymore, but at one point he was able to do. Is he? Yeah. Is he?
Starting point is 01:02:55 There you go. Yeah. So he's not doing them now. He's not doing them now. He's not doing them now. I don't believe he passed away from a two-fingered push-up. A couple of them just did a real-life on-air radio. Is he?
Starting point is 01:03:05 Is he? Yeah. Well, RIP, Bruce. This is going out to you. He was able to do 1,500 push-ups without breaking onto two hands. 1,500? Yeah, so he did not break in between. 1,500 push-ups at one time.
Starting point is 01:03:20 Yeah. He was then able to do four. This is not all at once, but they say he could do 400 push-ups with one hand without breaking. People who can do one-handed push-ups, and I'm looking at you, Art Green, insane.
Starting point is 01:03:32 It's insane to me. One-handed push-ups, what about a two-finger push-up? Two-fingered one-hand push-up. There's your next challenger, Art. Well, he could do 200 two-finger push-ups. Yeah. But I thought, you know, this afternoon, off the back of this,
Starting point is 01:03:48 I thought you should give it a go. Just one. Yeah, true, true. Just one. He could do 200. Right, okay. I just want to see you give it a go. Do I get to choose the fingers?
Starting point is 01:03:57 You can choose which fingers you use. Because this one's got a boo-boo on it. Have you got, you know, what fingers are your strongest? Probably index and FU finger. What about your thumb? Your thumb is definitely, your thumb and your index. Alright, okay. Okay, hold on, I'm going to film this
Starting point is 01:04:15 so we can put it on Instagram. Okay, you ready? Alright, I'm down here. Alright, okay, when you're ready, so you're going to go two. I'm at three fingers. Okay, try three and then we'll try two. Ready, go. Give me one.
Starting point is 01:04:34 I genuinely feel like my fingers are going to break. Can I try five? Can I try five fingers? Okay, yeah, try five fingers. Or try four. Try four. Okay. Okay, try four. This is evidence. Yeah, no, Bruce Lee, he definitely had something, that guy.
Starting point is 01:04:55 Hey, Art Green, if you're looking for a great before and after, hit Clint Roberts up. It's not worth it, bro. Don't try it. ZM's Brand Clint. On Insta, Facebook, TikTok, and live weekdays from 3 on ZM. Feed by KFC. Bro, don't try it.
