Okay, I can do. Hold on, let me give it another go.
Yeah, perfect. That was good.
That was better.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That was better.
And we're broadcasting from Queenstown right now,
which if you don't know what Queenstown is...
It's stunning.
What is it?
Is it like the...
Are we in the Hamptons?
No, the Hamptons is hot.
Is it?
Yeah.
It's like the Lake District.
Are we in...
What is it?
It's like the Rockies.
The Rockies?
The Rockies.
Okay.
Yeah, that vibe.
It's like the Swiss Alps.
Yep, the Swiss Alps.
Of New Zealand.
Is it called Banff?
Banff?
Banff in Canada?
Banff.
Banff?
Banff.
Banff.
Banff.
Banff.
Banff.
I don't know.
It's very fancy.
It's very ooh-la-la.
It's very la-dee-da.
Good place to come visit to New Zealand if you're coming.
And you should, by the way.
Yeah.
You should come here. It's a great place. Great spot. So yeah so yeah that's where we are we're not in our studio at the moment
ella's in our studio though ella is in our studio i don't know if she's with us at the moment hello
i'm here oh there she is we haven't heard her voice for two days we didn't bring her to queenstown
because she's just been to the swissps and Banff and the Rockies.
She's on the no-fly list.
She's just been travelling the world, haven't you, Ella?
Yeah.
So I'd say Switzerland is like Queenstown.
Okay.
No bragging or anything.
Do we need to bring you back some vegan chocolate from Queenstown?
Because you brought us back vegan chocolate from Switzerland.
Yeah, go on.
Some lovely dark chocolate.
There's some good chocolate shops actually in Queenstown. The Cookie Time shops here too. They have vegan cookies. Do they? Yeah. Oh, go on. Some lovely dark chocolate. There's some good chocolate shops actually in Queenstown.
The Cookie Time shops here too
and they have vegan cookies.
Do they?
Yeah.
Oh, good on them.
Didn't you have,
Claudia,
didn't you have
like some sort of
Cookie Time ice cream today?
It was a hot chocolate actually
and it was so good.
Claudia piked
on a very fancy lunch
that we had today.
Like,
it was a long lunch.
There was wine tasting.
There was all of this.
So she could go and have a milkshake
and a cookie at the lakefront.
It was so good, though.
Was it?
Half the reason I come to Queenstown
is to get cookies.
Okay.
Oh, good.
Well, I'm glad you got to do that.
My partner used to be one of the top sellers
for cookie time.
No way.
In the, like, cookie shirt?
Yep, yep.
Every Christmas?
Yep, yep.
She always boasts about it right and i'm like
she should go back to doing that i couldn't do that as a side hustle because i just eat them all
yes it's like i'd move all the product but make no money we did a promo with cookie time once and i
would just eat all the cookies that's right where there's orange chocolate chip ones there was some real good ones. Stop it. What was that, Clint? Oh, yeah.
Let me get up.
Oh, yeah.
All right, we're going to go.
We're going to do some Friday-oke
with a bunch of people here in Queenstown
live in a bar.
So we'll do that.
I can't wait.
You say it.
It's going to be great.
You enjoy the podcast.
You guys have to kick it off, though.
Ella, can you give us a live...
Oh, no.
Claudia's kicking it off. Can you give us a live... Oh, no, Claudia's kicking it off.
Can you give us a live howdy, partner, to see us out?

Hello.
Have you had multiple different changes of the colour of the hair or is this the first time?
Oh no, I've had pretty much every colour you can have. I've had it.
Blue and purple, you would look like one of those old school popsicle splashers.
Do you remember those?
Yes, yes.
One of my clients at work yesterday actually said, wow, you look like a popsicle.
Yeah, exactly right.

Three. Three is correct. Nice work.
How did you know that Kayleigh? I like to read.
Amazing. That's so good. I like to read. Amazing.

You've heard it here first from a daughter of an apple orchardist.

Question number four.
What is acrophobia the fear of?
Crazy.
Yes, Sam.
Go for a guess.
Is it small holes?
That is trypophobia, and I would know that because I've got it.
Acrophobia involves something in the air, off the ground.
Kayleigh, do you want to guess?
Is it like a fear of being out in public?
That's agoraphobia.
That is a very real fear.
No, we were looking for a fear of flying.
Flying.
Acrophobia.
Question number five.
How many bones do human beings have in their ear?
Is it three, 13 or 33?
Lady.
Yes, Kayleigh, for the win.
33.
That's incorrect.
Sam, do you want to guess?
Oh, I forgot that.
What are the answers again?
Sorry.
Three or 13?
Or 13?
13.
It's actually only three.
A lot of cartilage in your ear.
Your ear's tiny.
How many bones do you think you can fit in there?
Come on.
Question number six.
Name something from the legume family of plants or foods.
Lady.
Yes, Kayleigh, for the win again.

A bean?
Can you be any more specific?
What type of bean?
A soybean.
A soybean.
What?
Is that included?
I mean, it's not on our list, but could you name one other kind of bean?
A chickpea or a peanut.
Yep.
She's a lady.
Oh, oh, oh, she's a lady.
Clint looks at me.
I was like, don't look at me.
You wrote the question.
Kayleigh, congratulations.
You've just won $50 cash thanks to our mates at KFC.
Good game this afternoon, ladies.
Nice work.
Obviously, the biggest news over the past week is that Queen Elizabeth II has passed away.
Has she?
Yeah, she did.
I don't know if you've seen it in the news, but it's pretty much all any news outlet is talking about.
Just kidding.
It's the biggest news of the last 20 years.
It is.
It's the biggest news of the last 20 years. It is. It's massive. And I
came across this story because obviously
every news outlet is just
writing anything royal. Anything
they can find on Lizzie
and the family. I saw one today and it
was like Queen Elizabeth's last
message will not be heard for
85 years. Right.
And it was about a note that she wrote and
sealed in this glass case in a building in Sydney
in the 80s?
And she was like, open this in
100 years time. But they treated
it like it was a secret note she wrote on her
deathbed. Nah, it's been sitting there for 30 years.
I heard what was on that note.
I heard a rumour as to
what she wrote. What was it? I heard it was
Philip, you up?
That's what I heard.
Well, I know for damn sure in 100 years there was no way Philip
was going to be up.
Right.
Was she writing it for the future?
I don't know.
Hey, well, we'll never know.
We'll have to wait a bit longer to find out.
Speaking of Prince Philip, though, there's a story out today
which is talking about the late Duke of Edinburgh and what he used to call his late wife, Princess,
sorry, Queen Lizzie.
Jeez, get that right.
Get the name of the monarch right.
Was it Lilibet?
No, so that was her nickname.
A lot of people affectionately called her Lilibet because she couldn't pronounce her
own name when she was younger.
Is that where it comes from?
That's where it comes from.
Right.
But, no, he had a, obviously they were a couple for a very long time
and he used to call her Cabbage.
Cabbage?
Yeah.
Cabbage?
Yeah.
Right.
Which I think is quite cute.
Where I went to school, Cabbage meant that you were a bit dumb. Oh, did it? Like if someone described school, cabbage meant that you were a bit dumb.
Oh, did it?
Like if someone described you as cabbage, you were a bit like.
Oh.
Like I don't think that's why he was, I mean, far be it from me to say the truth.
I hope it wasn't why.
I don't think that's why.
But where I came from, if you were in the, like,
you know how the maths classes were tiered?
Yeah.
There's obviously accelerate maths, regular regular maths and then cabbage maths.
You didn't have that where you came from?
No, we did.
I don't like to talk about it because I was in the cabbage class.
Were you in cabbage maths?
Oh, I think I was.
Actually, if I don't know, I probably was.
Look, that is apparently what the Queen's biographer,
Robert Lacey, has confirmed that Philip sometimes referred
to his wife as.
Do we know why?
It doesn't say.
There's a few different things that they reckon it could have been,
but there's no concrete reason as to why they think
that he nicknamed her Cabbage.
I wonder if she knew or if she appreciated it
or if behind her back he would go,
what's going on, Cabbage?
And she'd be like, excuse me?
And he'd go, nothing, Your Highness.
No, I think it was a nice thing, like a little nickname for her.
There's also rumours that he had another nickname for her,
which was apparently...
The old ball and chain?
No, apparently he called her sausage.
Oh, okay.
These are very food-based.
Your little sausage, you know, which is quite cute.
It's just so mind-blowing to me that obviously a couple like that,
very royal, very serious.
Very proper.
Very proper, has nicknames for each other like we all do.
But then of course they do.
Yeah, of course they do.
Of course they do.
Yeah, because, you know, they have their private relationship
where they would probably, you know, do all the same things we do.
Like what?
I was going to...
You know, I reckon they'd have all their banter.
Of course they did.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And that would keep them normal as well.
Having their names, their nicknames that no one else knew about
would keep them feeling sane.
I think so too.
In such a strange way of living.
Do you have a nickname for your wife?
I'm trying to think if I do or not.
I don't think
there's any particular ones.
Nickname that you have? Nah.
You don't call her like
creme brulee or something?
Hey my little flan.
Hey flan. Flanny flan.
So her name's Lucy. I'll call her Lucy Lou
Lulu Luce.
Oh you should call her Charlie's Angel.
Why? Lucy Lou. Lucy Lou.
That's not bad. That's not bad.
I quite like that. Do you have one for your partner?
No we just call each other babe.
Oh yeah. Yeah. Hey babe. Yeah.
That's pretty standard. From that movie eh?
Yeah the pig. From Babe Pig in the City.
It's more my nickname for myself.
I thought we could ask people, though.
I bet there's some real unique names out there,
nicknames for each other's partners.
Yeah.
0800DIALSZM or you can text us on 9696.
What's your unique nickname for your partner?
Where did it come from?
Yeah.
And is it embarrassing for it to be heard out in public?
I can't wait to hear them.
Like if your friends found out that you called your
boyfriend or girlfriend this name
would it be shames? Yeah.
And then you'd have to explain why.
How you doing?
Good thanks Doug. Tell us what are your nicknames
for your partner?
Well I call her Poopkin.
Poopkin?
Poopkin. I hope it's not Pootin because that's very different. Poopkin. Poopkin? Poopkin. I hope it's not Pootin because that's very different.
Poopkin.
Poopkin.
Like, okay.
Yeah, what does she call you?
Butt Nugget.
Butt Nugget?
I like your guys' relationship, Doug.
No, I don't.
It gives me the heebie-jeebies.
Nah, sounds like a bit of me, Doug.
Poopkin and Butt Nugget.
And I can assume as to the
reasons why. Doug, look, I love your call.
Thank you for your participation. Let's put him on hold
before he can explain those. Nah, it's good.
It's good. I like it. Let's bring Charlie
on. Hi, Charlie. Hi, Charlie.
Hello. Charlie,
tell us, um, what's the
nicknames? Uh, my
dad calls my mum
my mum calls my dad poochy Poochie Smooch.
Your mum calls your dad Poochie Smooch?
Poochie Smooch.
Yeah.
Do you know where it came from?
I don't know.
Kissing?
Kissing, okay.
Dad's just a big Poochie Smooch.
Come here, you little Poochie Smooch.
I like it.
It's cute.
Do we ever call your dad Poochie Smoot? No. No.
That's just a mum and dad thing. Okay, thank you Charlie. Thank you for the call.
Kerry's here. Hi Kerry. Hi Kerry. Hello, how are you?
Tell us mate, what's the nicknames? Oh, this is for my
12 year old girl. She's very messy and she loves the movie
Home Alone. She watches it many, many times.
Great film. And there's a part on there
where she watches that TV
and he says, Merry Christmas
you filthy animal. Yeah.
I love it. Filthy animal.
Oh, that's neat. I like it.
So she's a filthy animal and you're a filthy
animal.
Yep. Oh, there she is.
Can we hear it from your daughter?
Can we hear her say it?
Merry Christmas, you filthy animal.
Hey, thank you very much.
Oh, I want a kid like that.
Someone's texted and said me and my partner call each other diddle lips.
Diddle lips?
See, I knew you were opening Pandora's box.
None of this makes sense out of context.
Someone else said I call my wife Clippy as she's quite small
and hangs off me like a koala.
Clippy koala, that's cute.
Someone else said, I call my wife of 25 years googly bear.
That's from Monsters, Inc.
Is it?
Yeah, that's a, oh, they've said it here.
It's from the movie Monsters, Inc.
There's so many of these that we can't read.
What the hell, Skeet?
So many that we can't read.
There's so many good ones.
My husband calls me Peach because I bruise easily.
Okay, that seems a bit un...
Oh, I like this one.
My partner calls me Chicken Nugget and we recently had a son
and he calls me Popcorn Chicken.
It's time for the latest.
Obviously, it's all about the Queen at the moment.
Daniel Craig has given an interview
about what the Queen was really like.
He played James Bond
and James Bond's entire mission
was to serve in Her Majesty's Royal Service.
Yeah, I saw a clip that was doing the rounds the other day
where he stars in a scene with her.
It was for the Olympics.
Yeah, amazing, eh?
So he did actually get to meet her,
and he did get to film with her.
He was in character as James Bond at the time,
but I kind of like that.
Yeah, it's pretty cool.
I think it's pretty neat.
He was on Stephen Colbert, The Late Show in America,
and Stephen asked,
what's a queen really like?
Take a listen to this. What's she like
in private? Is she funny? Very funny.
Really? Very funny. Wants to crack
a joke and cracked a joke about me.
Can you share
with the joke? Yeah.
She said, we're having our photographs
taken and she just went, oh no, he's the one
that doesn't smile.
Fair enough?
That's nice.
Nice crack.
There you go.
What are the corgis like in private?
I was rolling around on the floor with them most of the time.
That's good.
I mean, they're just there.
I think they have their own footman.
I wouldn't be surprised.
I'm not to be surprised by that.
Someone was just looking after them, and they're very friendly.
He's one of those actors I can only hear as his character.
I can only hear Daniel Craig as James Bond.
Yeah, it's quite interesting hearing the joke that the Queen cracked.
Yeah.
Because it's such, I believe, like a grandma joke
because the Queen actually looks like my late grandmother, my nonna.
They looked very similar.
And it's one of those harsh jokes where it's a joke, but it's like true.
By all accounts that are coming out after her passing,
she sounds like she had quite a good sense of humour.
Yeah.
Yeah.
A lot of grandmas do.
Yeah, right?
Don't they?
You're past that age of caring.
Yeah, exactly.
Like, I don't care anymore.
I'm just going to tell the truth.
That is the latest. Look, a guy has spoken
out about what
he believes is a red
flag for himself.
Oh, he's self-identifying.
He's self-identifying his own
red flag. Right, okay.
And he's asking
for advice. Because it caught me old school, but I thought we
hide our red flags for as long
as possible. Until think it's a-
Until that person agrees to be in a relationship with us, and then we slowly reveal our red flags.
Well, he hasn't to his partner.
Ha ha, this is the real me.
He's asking the internet for advice.
Okay.
But he's a 30-year-old man, and he said, I don't eat any vegetables. The closest thing that I eat that resembles a vegetable is the tomato
sauce on my frozen meat lover's pizza.
I've started my first ever serious relationship and I'm sweating
that my food choices are a glaring red flag.
Yeah, it is.
It's quite interesting that he obviously has identified that you know he's not 21 he's 30
he's gotten to a serious relationship and he's quite self-conscious about his food choices so
it's not it's not the lack of well it is the lack of veggies but really the issue is he doesn't eat
like an adult that's the thing he has- That's what he is saying, yes.
He has a teenager's diet.
Yeah.
And like going to a restaurant, you know,
or depending on what restaurants you go to,
that could affect, you know, those choices.
It could affect, you know, cooking meals at home together.
Is he veggie-phobic?
Do we know that?
Because that's a thing, eh?
You can be actually afraid of vegetables.
Yeah, I've met a few people where they're like,
ew, vegetables, I don't eat those.
I eat anything that's white or tan.
And let's be clear, tomato sauce doesn't count.
It does not count.
That is not a vegetable.
The amount of sugar in tomato sauce, not a vegetable.
And salt.
Right, okay, yeah, that's a red flag.
We were at lunch today.
We're down in Queenstown at the moment. Brie and I went to lunch and
I was sitting at the table and
the way I ate something that we
were served at lunch was different
to everybody else. And I thought... You were
eating a salad with your fingers, which
everyone at the table was quite
disturbed by. And I was like, stop
eating that Caesar salad and licking all your fingers.
I was not.
I was not.
But it might be equally as gross, depending on how you feel about this.
And God, I'd love to know if I'm alone on this.
I was alone at the table, but we were served prawns for lunch.
Yes.
Cold prawns.
Okay.
Like a prawn salad.
They were delightful.
They were whole prawns.
No head.
No, oh, sorry, no head.
No head and poop shoot.
And no legs.
I ate the prawn tails.
Yeah, that's fine with me.
Is it?
Yeah.
But I looked at your plate and you didn't eat any prawn tails.
I know.
I was looking around for support.
I talked to the people next to me.
They were like, oh, you ate your prawn tails.
I think the time where you do eat them is when they've been fried.
Right. And these hadn they've been fried. Right.
And these hadn't really been fried crisp.
No.
Like they weren't crisp.
No, no, no, no.
They weren't like tempura prawns.
Yeah.
But eating prawn toast is all right?
It's not a red flag?
I don't think so.
I eat them sometimes and the legs.
Oh, good.
All right, I'm perfect again.
That's fine.
Not the poop shoot though.
The red flag for you though in the eating category is you eat with the,
like your knife and fork in the wrong hands, the hand my wife is so hung up freaks me out yeah
she was like if you were ever invited to dinner with the queen you would not be able to go and
i was like well that's not gonna happen now was it so why do you think you do that uh i have no
idea i didn't know it was wrong until you and her told me that I was wrong. I mean, it's not a deal breaker.
I went 33 years eating that way and nobody told me it was wrong.
Yeah, it's strange.
I just don't know how you do it.
Like I find it quite awkward to watch you because I feel like it's not as efficient.
You know, like how are you cutting a steak?
Okay, so eating with your knife and fork in the wrong hands, food red flag.
Not eating like an adult.
Eating no vegetables, food red flag.
What else?
What else can we put on the list?
My partner says sometimes how much Ribena I drink is a red flag.
No, they put the vitamin C back in it.
Oh, have they?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's why I drink so much of it, yeah.
Eating with your mouth open.
Yeah, I think.
Food red flag. Chewing with your mouth open? Yeah, I think. Food red flag.
Chewing with your mouth open?
Yeah.
Yeah.
To a certain extent.
Yeah.
You know, like where you're really just cowing it.
0800 dials at M.
Can we put together a list of eat, is it eating red flags?
Yeah, food related.
The way that people eat that turns you off.
I think food related.
Food related red flags. Yeah, so it's not the way someone eats, but it you off. I think food-related. Food-related red flags.
Yeah, so it's not the way someone eats,
but it can be because it's food-related.
It can be the only thing that they eat.
It can be the way that they eat something.
Yep.
Or the quantity of something that they eat.
It could be a certain food that they eat that freaks you out.
0800-DARLZM, or you can text your food red flags into 9696.

What is your food-related red flags?
There's so many good texts coming through on this, like real good ones.
Stuff we'd never thought of.
Yeah, exactly.
Like what about this one?
My ex used to leave one final bite on his plate and say he was full
and can't eat it.
It would drive me crazy and sometimes I just ate it for him
so his plate was empty.
I don't think I've ever left a bite on my plate.
I just wasn't raised that way.
Oh, you don't ever?
Ever.
Oh, red flag.
Really?
Because that means you definitely at times would overeat.
Doesn't matter.
Yes, eat red flag.
Doesn't matter.
You serve me the food, I will eat the food.
Have some self-control.
Someone text in red food flags when they separate the food
so different foods are touching each other.
Biggest red flag.
Like, grow up, mate.
What about the people that always – have you seen those people
that eat, you know, thing by thing?
So if they have, like, steak, veggies, chips.
They eat the steak.
They'll eat all the steak.
Then they'll eat all the vegetables.
Then they don't eat everything together.
No, you've got to have some of those.
That's red flag.
Yeah, yeah.
Red flag.
Someone said chewing on the bones after a meal.
Oh, no.
You've got to do that.
Like a dog.
I love to chew on the bone.
Do you?
Yep.
Right.
Someone said, my friend holds her fork wrong.
She holds it like a caveman.
Or cavewoman.
Someone else said, my partner dips his fish and chips into raw egg.
It turns my stomach.
Raw egg?
Why are you dipping it into raw egg?
Raw egg, not even like soft boiled egg.
Yeah.
That's bizarre.
Someone else said, eating with mouth open or talking with food in there is the biggest yuck for me.
That's what we were talking about before, right? We were saying. Nicola's called through. Hi, Nicola. Hi, Nicola. mouth open or talking with food in there is the biggest yuck for me.
That's what we were talking about before, right?
We were saying.
Nicola's called through.
Hi, Nicola.
Hi, Nicola.
Hello.
What's your food-based red flag, Nicola?
Well, there's a couple, but it's mainly eating with your mouth open,
talking when you've got food in your mouth.
What about Nicola?
And then making any kind of noise.
Any kind of noise, so any kind of mastication noise upsets you.
Wait, you're like moaning and, oh, it just drives me mad.
Wait, moaning?
Nicola, can you give us an example?
I just can't picture it.
Give us an example of the noise.
Yeah, Nicola, we're going to need an example.
Well, when you really enjoy food, I've come across it with a lot of people
and they're just chewing and going, mmm.
Oh, yeah.
Give it to me.
Potato skins.
Okay, thank you, Nicola.
Someone said my partner of five years
eats a paddle pop with his teeth.
No sucking, no licking.
Absolute nutter.
Don't see anything.
He bites straight into a paddle pop.
I don't see anything wrong with that. I do
that. Really? Yeah. How?
People always get weirded out by it. How?
I don't know. I can do it with my
front teeth. Can you bite a popsicle?
Yeah. Can you? Yeah.
I can. Off that. Thank you. Someone else
said my ex
refused, like aggressively
refused to eat leftovers
of any length of time.
He only ate freshly made food so it wasn't old.
That's inefficient.
That's not a good way to live.
Jase, who used to work here at ZM with Jase and PJ, he only ate hot food.
He wouldn't eat cold food.
He hated cold food.
Can you imagine how expensive that would be to do that every day?
Can I just say you haven't lived unless you've had some foods cold?
Yeah.
Cold pizza.
I prefer hot food, but I could eat a cold, like I could eat a sandwich.
Cold pizza is just as good as hot pizza.
Unpopular opinion maybe, but I stand by it.
John's here.
John, what's your food eating red flag?
We had a chap here at work that ate an apple with his mouth open every smoko.
And the whole lunchroom would hear him going.
Apple's a very noisy food to eat anyway, isn't it?
Let alone with your mouth open.
No, no, it was the chewing.
It was the chewing, but he kept his mouth, he was opening it with his mouth
open and everybody would just look at him
but I lost it one day and said
can you shut up?
That's all I have to say. It was the most annoying
thing I came across. You okay now
John? You got that off your chest?
I feel much better. Good man.
Thank you. Good on you John. Someone else said
I eat my M&M's by colour.
Oh, okay.
That's interesting.
Because they all taste the same.
M&M's are very private food, though.
What do you mean?
Well, you're not sitting at the dinner table with a group of people to enjoy a packet of M&M's, are you?
I can just picture.
Like, it's hard to offend somebody with the way you eat M&M's.
You'd usually eat them in the car by yourself or in a dark movie theatre.
I can just picture that person sitting at home and she's,
or he has got all the M&M's out on the coffee table
and he's racking up the different colours.
He's like, right, red's over there, blue's over there.
Someone's texting me talking about food-based red flags.
They said, slurping a hot drink.
It is so annoying.
Wait until it cools
down, you psycho. I used
to date this guy that,
I'm not joking, every time he drank his
coffee, he had this gap between his front
teeth and he'd slurp it through
the gap in his front teeth. Really?
Yeah. Wow. How big was the gap? Could he get
a straw in there? No, no, it wasn't
that big, but you could hear it.
Yeah. Oh, okay. Someone said
eating pizza with a knife and fork is a food
red flag? Oh, it depends what type of pizza.
If it's real sloppy, I think
it's okay. And eating a kiwi fruit with
the skin on. My brother does that.
My brother... He likes the hairy bitterness
of it. My brother also eats the
skin of a watermelon.
Oh, yuck. Yeah, I think it
constipates him. Really? Yeah, I'm pretty sure. Jesus. He Oh, yuck. Yeah, I think it constipates him. Really?
Yeah, I'm pretty sure. Jesus.
It goes, nothing wrong
with eating the skin
of a watermelon. It goes to
waste. What do you reckon the dirtiest
item in your house is?
Toilet brush. I thought toilet brush too.
I always think toilet brush. 100%.
You know what I think is dirtier than the toilet brush
is that little thing that holds the toilet brush,
the toilet brush receptacle.
I caught my dog chewing on the old toilet brush.
Oh.
And I went, get your mouth away from my face.
I think you're probably right.
I think the toilet brush is right up there.
But according to some corners of the internet,
the dirtiest, filthiest, grossest item in your house
is actually your mattress.
Oh, yeah.
She dirty.
She a dirty girl.
She a dirty girl.
Listen to this.
Coated and clogged with dirt and dead skin, that mattress of yours is possibly home to as many as 10 million dust mites.
Nasty little critters that can cause allergies and exacerbate symptoms for asthma and eczema sufferers.
Think of your mattress as a big, like, pillow full of dead skin.
It's a big cesspool of dust mites.
I'm so allergic to dust mites.
That's why I have, like, a really good mattress protector on my mattress.
See, that's a great place to start.
Because you can wash it.
Yeah.
And it does give a bit of protection, surely.
Surely.
Surely.
Well, why are we bloody buying them?
You get those waterproof ones too, which are good for.
Why do you need a waterproof one?
No reason.
Did you know that you're meant to clean your mattress once every six months?
Once every six months?
Who's writing this article?
The mattress cleaning people?
Quite possibly.
Yeah.
The mattress company.
They're like,
we should do a study.
The Acosa company.
They're like,
you should order a brand new mattress
every six months.
We'll send you one in a box.
It's environmentally friendly.
No,
so they say you should clean it
every six months,
but how do you clean a mattress?
Have you ever cleaned your mattress?
We,
in our household,
actually had our mattresses
cleaned a few years
ago. By whom? It was
a mattress cleaning company. Okay.
Because you don't want to tackle that job
alone, I'm telling you. So what did they do?
Did they take it outside and beat
it with a stick? Yeah, that's pretty much
the standard. No, they have this big machine
where essentially they pump
you know, like a big machine where they pump water into it
and then they vacuum it out.
Right, like a rug doctor.
Yeah, for a mattress.
Really?
Yeah.
Rug mattress.
No, mattress doctor.
A mattress doctor.
Rug mattress.
That's a different topic.
Rug mattress.
Okay, well, a couple of years ago, good,
but you should do it every six months.
This is what the internet says, how you should clean your mattress every six months. Okay, well, a couple of years ago, good, but you should do it every six months. This is what the internet says,
how you should clean your mattress every six months.
Okay.
So the process goes like this.
Strip the bed and vacuum the mattress
to collect all the dirt and debris.
I mean, how much is that going to pull out, though?
Well, you say that,
but if you've got like a Dyson or a Samsung handheld
with one of those clear things,
you get to see all the shit that comes out of anything you vacuum. I hope there's not
shit in your mattress. No, no, no.
You need a different... No, no, no, but like grey
matter, like stuff.
No wonder you had that waterproof protector
on it. Okay, alright, look.
Next they say mix
essential oils with baking
soda and sprinkle it over the
stripped mattress. How much
is that going to do?
I don't know.
And what else?
Then what?
They say leave it on there to make sure the mixture is on there for several hours.
Okay.
And then do you vacuum that off?
Baking soda dissolves organic compounds like dirt, grime and grease.
In addition, the mineral structure of each baking soda particle provides a gentle abrasive
element to help scour sticky ickies from your mattress.
What sticky ickies are on the mattress?
Well, look, if you don't know,
then after a couple of hours, vacuum it all off.
Right.
So you put all, sprinkle all that on.
And then vacuum it off.
Your magic dust.
I've got the best alternative to this.
Right.
And I think it is about time we bought back the waterbed.
See, I was going to say that.
Because a waterbed, you know, you just wipe it down.
Do you know how I cleaned my waterbed?
You wiped it down.
Handy Andy.
Pardon me?
Yeah, wipe it down.
Good to go.
Handy Andy.
What's a Handy Andy?
Handy Andy, just kitchen spray.
Is there a kitchen spray called Handy Andy?
Yeah.
Is there?
Cool.
Tell me I'm not crazy.
Handy Andy exists, right?
Oh, good.
I think that might be a Kiwi thing because I just had pure panic.
In Australia it would have a name like Wacko Jacko or some shit like that.
Oh, yeah, Wacko Jacko.
Wacko Jacko is some stuff when you mention it.
I mean, it's great stuff. Yeah, yeah, Wacko Jacko. Great stuff. Wacko Jacko's some stuff on your mattress. I mean, it's great stuff.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, right, okay.
Before the Queen's passing
and before everybody was talking about
Harry Styles spitting on Chris Pine,
we were talking about how Spencer Pratt from the Hills
said that Lisa Kudrow was an awful person.
Yeah, he was throwing massive shade at Phoebe.
Oh, my God, he was shooting from the hip.
And everyone was like, are you sure, man? Anyway, he was shooting from the hip and everyone was like are you sure man
anyway he was kind of cryptic about it he said this oh that's easy phoebe from friends hands down
one of the worst humans i've ever come in contact with by far and we're like i don't believe it we
don't believe i need more information in true it. I need more information. In true attention-seeking style, he clickbaited it,
and he was like, if this video goes viral,
I will reveal the reason why Phoebe from Friends is awful.
100,000 likes, and I'll reveal it.
It did, though, because he captured everyone's imagination.
Well, we're talking about it.
And he was like, okay, Spencer Pratt,
we'll give you the benefit of the doubt.
Why is Phoebe from Friends so bad?
He's released an updated video
and he's explained why he finds
Lisa Kudrow so awful.
All right, I'm ready.
So this is Spencer Pratt,
married to Heidi Montag.
If you're a millennial,
you'll remember them from that show,
The Hills.
Here's his explanation.
The year was 2009.
Heidi and I were invited to our first real A-list elite party.
As we were sitting there consuming a little caviar,
Phoebe approaches, which was a little shocking
since nobody had talked to us at all at the party.
She then says right in front of me to Heidi
that she needs to get away
from me as fast as possible because i'm gonna murder heidi and that i have the eyes of a serial
killer heidi waits to see if this is a joke maybe this is a bit no laughs she just walks away and
that right there is the rudest moment I've ever encountered with a human being.
So you have to, after that, go.
So my mind straight away goes, do you believe him?
But then after that I go, do you think he had the right person?
Do you think it was really Lisa Kudrow who said that?
But in 2009, The Hills was on,
and he was not a beloved person on The Hills.
So maybe she was a fan of The Hills and she was like, oh, my God,
you've got to leave that Spencer Pratt guy.
Yeah, their relationship was quite chaotic.
It was.
If you watch that show.
And I understand, obviously, that show isn't real.
Wait, what?
The Hills.
It's a scripted show.
What's that?
Are you...
You're joking.
I didn't really watch it.
Nah, you're joking.
I didn't really watch it.
Is it scripted or is it like...
Are you taking the piss?
Well, it's like the Kardashians, isn't it?
Is it not?
Are you joking?
I didn't watch it.
I didn't watch it.
Right.
The last scene of the show...
Right.
If you're...
I mean, spoiler alert.
But they're really married.
Yeah, so they are.
So they're really married.
They are, but the last scene of the show is where it,
I can't remember the exact thing,
but there's two people having a conversation
and then the cameras kind of pull back to reveal
that it's actually on a set.
Right.
Okay, well, buzzy.
Yeah, yeah.
Didn't realise that.
Which, I mean, there was also a lot of real stories in the media
about their relationship.
Because they were really in a relationship, right?
Yeah, they were.
And they are still really in a relationship.
Yes, I believe so.
But, you know, yeah, he wasn't portrayed as the nicest human.
No.
So do you believe what he's saying there?
Do you believe that Lisa Kudrow could have said that?
Yeah, she could have.
She could have.
But she also, you know, I mean, I can kind of see why she would have said it.
Yeah.
I mean, do I think it's rude to say that in front of the person that's there?
Yeah, it is.
It is.
It's made everyone go, oh, do we need to check whether Lisa Kudrow
is a bad person or not?
So now everyone's trying to fact check it.
They've gone to David Arquette who was married to Courtney Cox
for a while.
Who also appeared on Friends.
Who played Monica.
She was Courtney Cox Arquette for a bit.
He's also the guy in Scream as well.
Or I know he did one of those too.
Anyway, this is what he has said.
They said to him,
Lisa Kudrow, is there any truth to it?
I reckon he'll say no.
Is she really?
Is she actually a biatch?
I don't reckon he'll say yes.
It's hard one to believe
she's like the sweetest person in the world.
I don't know.
I hope they both get an opportunity to be in a stab film. It's hard to believe she's like the sweetest person in the world. I don't know.
I hope they both get an opportunity to be in a stab film.
How about that?
Why did he talk like that?
What?
I can't understand a word of what he's saying. Why was he doing that voice?
What did he say?
He said, I find it very hard to believe.
It's hard.
Because she's really a sweet person.
It's a hard one to believe she's like the sweetest person in
the world did you notice something talking like yogi beer i don't know did you also notice
something of what um spencer pratt sounded like did you notice who he sounded like who
play that second piece of audio of spencer pratt talking about um lisa krow. The year was 2009. Heidi and I were invited to our first real A-list elite party.
As we were sitting there consuming a little caviar,
Phoebe approaches.
Who does that sound like?
Who?
That's Donald Trump.
It was a little shocking since nobody had talked to us at all at the party.
Got a Donald Trump vibe.
As fast as possible.
And then I have the eyes of a serial killer.
Is the mystery solved? I don't know, but I just think that maybe... I've got a Donald Trump vibe. As fast as possible. And I have the eyes of a serial killer.
Is the mystery solved?
I don't know, but I just think that maybe.
I'm still shooketh that you didn't know The Hills was a scripted show.

Look, a big show that is obviously going to air at the moment
Is the Game of Thrones prequel
House of Dragon
House of the Dragon
Is it House of Dragon or House of the Dragon?
I think it's House of the Dragon.
Or House of Dragons.
I don't know.
You and I don't watch it, do we?
We're not throners.
We're not?
So when anyone brings it up, we kind of go like, oh, yeah, oh, man.
Oh, I love it.
Oh, read Whitting.
So good.
John Snow and Aphrodite.
No, what's her name?
John Cena.
John Cena.
They're great.
No, look, there's an article out today which is talking about
the latest episode that's came out.
Of the Dragon Show.
Of the Dragon Show, the Game of Thrones prequel,
which talks about, I mean, it has a lot of indoor gardening scenes
in the show.
So I watched one episode of Game of Thrones.
I watched the very first episode and in that episode
a guy had
indoor gardening with someone
who I'm pretty sure was his sister.
Yeah, so. And I went at that point
I went, this show's not for me.
Yeah, so that's what people are talking
about at the moment because episode four, the latest
episode features a scene
I believe between an
uncle and his niece.
Far out, Ned.
There's a lot of the incestual kind of gardening.
You know, they love to do that keep it in the family garden.
A lot of shared garden beds.
Exactly.
Someone who I do know watches the show is my mum.
What a pervert.
And I thought we could bring her on and I'm going to question her
about whether or not she's seen this story.
So this new episode.
This new episode, the latest one.
So this is the one people are talking about.
We've actually got her on hold.
She can't hear us right now.
Soundkeeper Gaz, can you bring Mama Di onto the show now, please?
Mama Di, are you there?
Mum?
I surely am. How are you, guys? Hi, Mama Di, are you there? Mum? I surely am.
How are you guys?
Hi, Mama Di.
Long time no hear.
I reckon.
Where's my invite to Queenstown?
Next time, Mum.
Next time.
I know you love to get on the slopes.
Hey, look, Mum, I got you on this afternoon because I wanted to know,
are you watching House of the Dragon at the moment? My word I am.
It's absolutely awesome. And what is it that you love
about House of the Dragon, Mama Di? It's not real.
Right. Right. Okay, so you know that it's fantasy.
The mythical kind of element. Yeah, the magical
Game of Thrones type of vibe to it.
Right, because I need to ask you, Mum,
if you've seen the latest episode, Episode 4.
My word, I have.
I watched it last night.
Anything jump out about that episode to you?
Anything you weren't comfortable with?
You know, anything where you were like,
oh, that's a little bit too far?
Wasn't real good
in the brothel, was it?
Wait a minute, there's a brothel?
Okay, I just want to ask you
Princess
Don't go there.
No, no, no, we want to engage with
the things that you enjoy. We want to have shared interests with you
So you clearly love Game of Thrones
So we're going to talk about these bits with you
I just want to ask you about the particular scene in episode 4
Between a particular uncle
And I believe it's his niece
Is that correct mum?
That is correct, yes it is
What were your thoughts on that particular
Let's say, sex scene?
Oh, Brianna, I mean, for goodness sake.
Well, we haven't seen it.
You're the one watching it.
We don't watch it, so we have to defer to you.
And we know it's popular, so...
You're tuning in.
Yeah.
I tell you what, it was a pretty full-on scene
because there's a few full frontals as well,
so that was a bit full frontals as well.
So that was a bit kind of mind-blowing.
And what would you say you enjoyed most about it?
I don't know if I enjoyed most about it, but I thought nothing's changed since.
Is this for real or is it kind of following the royals or something?
Right. And you never had any crushes
or any fantasies
about your uncles?
Anyway.
Oh, Brianna.
We're just trying to see how deep it goes.
We're just, you know. Look, it's one of those ones
that I think Bri is quite grateful
she wasn't there to watch with you
because that would be an awkward mother-daughter
watch, wouldn't it?
Yeah, it's not a show that I particularly want to tune in with you
any time soon, Mum.
You can watch that on your own.
All I know, Brianna, is your father went very silent.
Don't put this on him, Mumma Di.
Yeah, look.
Okay.
Okay, good.
We just wanted to check that you'd seen it and you'd enjoyed it
and you're looking forward to some more of that.
While it is a great show available on Neon right now,
we think it's definitely a show that is not worth watching with your parents.
Exactly right.
There's too many awkward topics like that.
You know, there's too many weird situations where you go,
hmm, this is not.
Like, look, even, you know, even sex scenes are the hard ones
to watch at times, but then when you throw incest in there,
it's not ideal to sit down and enjoy with your parents.
And I thought we could ask this afternoon, 0800DIALZM,
what's a movie or TV show that you shouldn't watch with your parents?
I'm just going to turn the tables here a little bit and say I don't want
to watch it with my kids.
Okay.
Yeah, good one, Terry.
I think that needs to be spoken about as well.
Yeah, what's the show, Terry?
Shameless.
Okay, so I haven't watched much Shameless.
Producer Claude is in the corner at the moment going, mm-hmm.
Is it a little bit raunchy in parts, Terry?
Quite a lot of indoor gardening, you might say, yes.
Right, yes, Terry.
Okay.
So you learnt your lesson.
Do you know if your kids watch Shameless?
I'm not 100% sure, but if you do watch it,
watch it by yourself and not with me.
Leave me out of it.
Okay, all right, we'll put Shameless on the list.
Thank you, Terry.
It's a by-yourself show, isn't it, Terry? I love it. Hayley's called up.. We'll put Shameless on the list. Thank you, Terry. It's a buy yourself show, Terry.
I love it.
Hayley's called up.
Hayley, you reckon Naked Attraction as well.
That's definitely not a family friendly show.
No, it's definitely not one I'd want to watch with my mum,
let alone I wouldn't watch it with my son, mum.
Yeah, used to.
There'd be some comments and I'd be like, okay, this is not right.
Hayley, have you ever found yourself in that situation
where you've been watching it with someone, probably not a good idea?
A hundred percent.
Most of the times when it's on,
especially if my son snuck out of his room and you're watching it,
you're like, uh-oh, quickly change.
But another one, a movie, my 16th birthday I got to choose.
I had all my friends over and mum's like,
I'll watch the movie with you and we picked the sweetest thing.
Oh, yeah.
I know the scene, the Aerosmith scene.
Yes, that one and the song in the Chinese restaurant as well.
Yeah, yeah. Oh, no. All right, we'll add that to this. the Chinese restaurant as well.
Yeah.
Oh no.
Hayley, you poor thing.
These are pouring in at the moment.
Someone said I watched Sex Education with my grandma. Well, I mean
it's in the title, isn't it?
The most uncomfortable feeling. However, I was
never going to miss an episode.
Even though grandma's there, you won't skip an episode
of Sex Education.
Grandma was hooked after that.
She goes, love it.
What about someone said, oh, this is so true.
This is the worst movie to watch with your parents.
Has to be American Pie.
Why would you watch American Pie with your parents?
Not ideal.
Read the synopsis of these shows,
says the guy who put True Blood on.
Someone said, I watched Black Swan at the movies with my dad.
Very uncomfortable.
Someone also said, Wolf of Wall Street,
not a good movie to watch with your parents.
Yeah, there is some crazy scenes in that movie.
Maya's here as well.
Hey, Maya.
Hi, Maya.
Hi.
What's a show you regret watching with your parents?
Well, I watched Game of Thrones,
House of Dragons, and Sex Education with my mum. Maya, why?
I'm 16, too.
Oh, Maya.
Right, you guys must have a good relationship.
You must have a very open dialogue.
We just don't make eye contact
and ultimately sit there.
You just don't talk about what's happening?
I just kind of go on a bit of a tangent to diffuse the situation.
Yeah, right.
Oh, my.
No.
Okay, all right.
Well, I mean, unless you've got some things in common, I guess,
at least you can do some things together.
Do you at least sit far away from each other on the couch?
Yeah.
A little snuggling up.
What do you think?
I missed the show just to know.
It's a good show.
Okay.
Thank you, Maya.
We appreciate the call.
There you go.
There's a good list for you.
To the person who said that we should have given out a spoiler warning
before saying that there is some intercourse on House of the Dragon,
what did you think was going to happen on House of the Dragon?
Yeah. I mean, we haven't seen the episode. I feel like it's a central part of the Dragon. What did you think was going to happen on House of the Dragon? Yeah, I mean, we haven't seen the episode.
I feel like it's a central part of the show.
I mean, I haven't seen it, so.
It's my birthday, it's my birthday.
Free and clean, birthday banger.
All right, Pete, it's time to get you home with a birthday banger.
Your birthdays.
But what song was top in the charts on your 16th?
Well, that's what we do here at Birthday Banger,
and we'll play one of those songs.
Bridget's here to play.
Good afternoon, Bridget.
G'day, Bridget.
Hey, how's it going?
Wait, Bridget, is that rain I can hear?
No, not yet.
It's just lots of wet ground on the floor.
Right.
Wait, Bridget, is that a very Australian accent I can hear?
Yes.
How come I can't pick up on that?
Bridget, whereabouts are you from?
Well, I'm actually from New Zealand,
but lived in Sydney for ages and went to school in Melbourne.
Yeah, right.
Oh, Struth, Faddingham Bridge, nice work.
Well, mate, let's do your birthday banger.
What's your birthday?
17th of the 9th, 1984.
All right, that means you were 16 in the year 2000.
And on the 17th of September, this was number one.
Robbie Williams and Rock DJ.
What do you think, Bridget?
Oh, it's not too bad.
Not too bad?
It's not too bad.
He's a bit of a legend.
Yeah.
Yeah, he's alright.
Yeah, very controversial music video too.
I'm sure we had a few boogies to that song.
Wait there, we're going to do one for Joe.
Good afternoon, Joe.
G'day, Joe.
How are you?
Joe, whereabouts in the country are you?
I'm in Wanaka. Oh, lovely.
Oh, you're just over the pass from us. We're in Queenstown
right now. Ah, here you go.
Oh, lovely, Jo. Well, let's do
your birthday, Banger. What's your birthday?
19 November 1973.
Alright, that means you were 16
in 1989.
And on your 16th birthday, this was number one.
Wow!
Cher!
It's Cher!
Jo, I'm a big fan of Cher.
Do you like her?
Oh, yeah.
Probably wasn't my favourite back then, but...
Wait there, Jo.
We're going to do another birthday banger for Anne.
Hello, Anne.
Good afternoon.
Welcome to the show, Anne.
Hi, it's me, it's me.
I can answer you before you ask.
I'm in Christchurch and I'm just before the motorway
and I cut across three lanes like a ninja stunt driver.
Ooh la la.
We've got Vin Diesel on the phone all the way from Christchurch.
Hey.
He's my favourite, yeah.
Is the most important thing to you family?
What?
Never mind, Anne.
What's your birthday, mate?
Yeah, Fast and Furious reference.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
We got it now.
We got it now.
What's your birthday, Anne?
7th of December, 78.
Right, Anne.
That means you were 16 in 1994.
And let me take you back to your 16th birthday
because this would have been number one.
There it is.
Silverchair.
And tomorrow, that's a bit of a throwback.
What do you reckon, Anne?
Is that 1978?
That was it.
No, so 16 years forward from there, when you were 16, this was number one.
She hates it.
She hates it.
She hates it.
You can say that.
Okay.
I like rap and hip-hop, sorry.
Yeah, fair enough.
Yeah, okay.
Wait there, Anne.
We're going to choose a birthday bag.
It's not going to be silver chair for me. I do like silver chair. That doesn't have the Yeah, okay. Wait there, Anne. We're going to choose a birthday banger. It's not going to be Silverchair for me.
I do like Silverchair.
That doesn't have the vibes, though.
For me, I reckon, I know we're going to disagree on this.
I'm going to go Rock DJ.
Yeah, same.
Are you?
Yeah.
Over Cher?
Well, Cher's just a bit slow, and it is raining in Queenstown right now,
and I just need a bit of a pick-me-up, I think.
Well, let's bring our girl Bridget on.
Bridget, congratulations.
You've just won birthday banger.
Oh, yeah.
Awesome, guys.
Thank you.
There we go.
This one's for you, Bridget.
Sing it loud, mate.
Play.
ZM's brand Clint.
On Insta.
Facebook.
TikTok.
And live weekdays from 3 on ZM.
Feed by KFC.
Get the full menu delivered to your door with the KFC the Royal Family at the moment.
And King Charles, I'm still not used to saying King Charles, by the way.
Yeah.
Because when I hear King Charles, I think King Charles Cavalier.
Oh, the dog.
The dog.
Yeah, the King Charles Cavalier.
Right, well.
Do you reckon he's going to have those dogs?
Could do.
That makes sense for him.
Could do.
Following the death of Queen Elizabeth,
Prince Charles' responsibility is now to decide
which royal family members get to live in which royal residence.
I heard King Charles is taking the room with the bunk beds.
You joke, but they have so many houses and so many palaces and so many castles.
Do you reckon they would have a room within one of their castles that has bunk beds?
Depends what they're into.
I hope William and Harry bunked at some stage.
I mean, as a kid.
They were best friends.
It's a part of growing up to sleep in bunk beds.
Not now, though, because of that bloody Meghan Markle.
She's torn the bloody family apart.
Meghan Markle hates bunk beds.
Anyway, the tradition.
She said, no more bunk beds.
William and Catherine were like, welcome, we've got the bunk beds ready.
And Harry was like, oh, I love bunking with my brother.
And Meghan was like, we don't do that in America.
We're adults now, Harry.
No, it's Charles' job
to decide where they live. It's tradition
that the monarch lives at Buckingham Palace
right in the middle of London, but he doesn't have to
live there. Just because the Queen lived there, he doesn't
have to live there. Where does he live now?
Great question.
Neverland? I don't know.
I've got some Buckingham Palace facts
for you. And you think you understand
how big Buckingham Palace is? You don't.
It's big.
It is so big.
You haven't been there either. You stand outside
the gates in London and it seems big.
You don't know the half of it, how big
this palace is. Like it's one of those places
if you went over there as a kid
visiting a friend, you'd walk in
and go, oh, my friend's parents are rich.
Exactly right.
One of those places.
So the palace, Buckingham Palace, was built in 1703.
So she old.
I can be a leaky home.
Nah, 1703, they're using good materials.
Oh, were they?
Okay, good.
Buckingham Palace contains 775 rooms.
700 rooms?
And 75.
Oh, not bedrooms.
That's just all the rooms in the house.
I mean, that's still a crazy amount.
Can you imagine how many times you'd have to charge the Dyson
to vacuum Buckingham Palace?
Oh, you'd get a million robot vacuum cleaners.
So in that 775 rooms, there are 19 state rooms for hosting people.
So like when the Obamas come over, they have a dinner.
So setting rooms.
Yeah.
240 bedrooms.
200.
Wow.
92 offices.
And 78 bathrooms inside Buckingham Palace.
Stuff that.
You've lost me.
If you're trying to sell me this property.
78 bathrooms.
Imagine, and I bet there'd be a bidet in a lot of those bathrooms
so you're not just cleaning 78 toilets.
I don't know if they would.
It's been standing since 1700.
I don't know if they had bidets back then.
Yeah, but they would have done renovations.
Some.
Surely.
Some.
Yeah.
They wouldn't have put in 78 bidets though.
If I know the royals, they love a cheeky bidet. Some. Surely. Some. Yeah. They wouldn't have put in 78 bidets, though.
If I know the royals, they love a cheeky bidet.
In 1982, a man named Michael Fagan scaled the walls of Buckingham Palace.
He climbed in a window and found himself in the Queen's bedroom where he sat on her bed chatting to her about the royal family for 10 minutes
before a chambermaid found him and led him away. That was the
second time that Michael Fagan
had broken into Buckingham Palace.
How did he break in?
He climbed up a drainpipe and climbed
in the windows. Like a rat up a drainpipe?
Yeah. Literally. But
out of all of those bedrooms, how did he just
end up in the Queen's bedroom?
He would have done his research. You reckon?
You know, like Romeo and Juliet.
Yeah.
Well, anyway, if Prince Charles is going to move in there,
it's going to need some work.
So I'm predicting the block UK, Buckingham Palace.
I think that's a good idea because I heard the CV on that property
is through the roof.
It's going up and up and up.
Let's get all BuzzFeed for a minute.
Yeah.
Because I found this article which apparently surveyed about 2,000 people
and they took a look at people's favourite cocktails
and what it means about their personalities.
Oh, okay.
So it's not just a quiz on BuzzFeed,
but it's an actual survey where they've asked a lot of people.
Yeah.
Right?
Do you drink many cocktails?
I don't.
I'm not a big cocktail drinker.
One, they're really expensive.
And two, all the sugar in them makes me feel sick.
Is it the sugar?
It's the fricking alcohol for me.
Oh, really?
They're like.
I can handle the alcohol.
Can you?
Because I don't reckon Kiwis can.
I reckon they're used to drinking 9-10
pals over 9-10
hours. Yeah. Whereas a
cocktail, you have three of those
and it is home time.
Well, steer clear of a Long Island
iced tea. Yeah. What would be your favourite
cocktail? I think
and call me basic, but I think it's
Cosmopolitan. No, not a Cosmopolitan
but not far off
You're so smart. Not far off
probably an espresso martini. An espresso martini
Yeah, I mean that's a go-to for a lot of
people. Picks me up. It's very
Drops me down. Luxury, isn't
it? Yeah. You know, I'd probably
A bartender hates nothing more than you
going up and ordering six espresso
martinis. Yeah.
I feel like bartenders hate people who order cocktails in general.
I think so.
Because it does take a lot of time.
I'd probably have to go for a whiskey sour.
Oh, okay, Don Draper.
I love, whiskey sours are delightful.
Yeah, but it's a bit ooh la la.
Is it?
Isn't it?
Mate, you're having an espresso martini. Yeah, mine's basic B.
You can get mine in an RTD.
It's whiskey sours. Well, mine's
old school B, so whatever.
Let's look at the results.
So the first results that came through
were people who love a Bloody Mary.
Oh, I do like a Bloody Mary.
I'm not a fan. Makes me feel
Okay, what does it say about you if you like a Bloody Mary?
It's like you're drinking tomato soup. It says
they were the most likely to say yes to everything.
Not just tomato soup, cold tomato soup.
Yeah, not my vibe.
With vodka in it.
This other statistic that came through,
what your cocktail says about your personality,
most extroverted people preferred a cold beer.
Okay, that's not a cocktail, but yeah.
Well, and most introverted people enjoyed a margarita.
Okay.
Quite interesting.
Introverts like a margarita?
Yeah, apparently so.
Okay.
Introvert, a margarita says to me,
you're going to put a sombrero on your head.
Party or with the best of it.
And dance around the bar.
Yeah, but fine.
Okay, yeah.
Sangria fans are most likely to have at least,
most likely to have a lot of friends.
Because sangria comes in a jug.
Well, that's true.
So you need to be able to share it with somebody.
So you're not ordering that on your own, are you?
No, yeah, I get that one.
So that makes a lot of sense.
Wine people, it says diverse music tastes
and enjoy the likes of hip-hop and jazz.
Wine is not a cocktail, but yeah, okay.
Someone else, one of the other results that came through were the cocktail
that related to people that had the best indoor gardening lives.
Oh.
So the best six lives.
Preferred a minty mojito.
There you go.
I don't mind a mojito. I love a nice fresh mojito. There you go. I don't mind a mojito.
I love a nice, fresh mojito.
Get around it.
Sex on the Beach fans tend to opt for,
to watch horror flicks.
Producer Claude's just put up her hand.
She's a big fan of Sex on the Beach.
Is that a bit of you?
Yeah, that's me.
And do you like horror movies?
I do, yeah.
Yeah, okay, well that's accurate.
Okay, well that checks out.
Whereas Sangria fans preferred to watch dramas.
Right, with their friends.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It says people who drink beer, their music taste,
and I mean, this isn't rocket science.
This is very genuine.
Is it rock music?
Rock and pop music is what they said.
Yeah, okay, yeah.
And the people that they said, depending on their cocktail choice,
that were the most content in life overall.
So the happiest people?
Yes.
What's their drink?
What are you ordering tonight to tell everybody you're happy?
Honestly, I'm happy.
Also a margarita.
Oh, okay.
Chili margarita?
It says a tart margarita.
Right, okay.
So I've never had one of those, but there you go.
So no espresso martini on there and no whiskey sours.
No.
What does that say about us?
We're basic.
We already went over that.
