Starting point is 00:00:00 Hey, welcome to the Berean Clint Podcast. G'day everyone. G'day everyone. Today on the show, you're going to hear about it, but I've been doing some tindering and I think I'm pretty good. I think I'm good at the tinders. I think if someone put me in charge of their tinder, I would turn up some goods for them. You'll find out.
Starting point is 00:00:21 You talking about tinder, I've never thought to myself, God, you sound old, but you sounded old. Well, yeah. I'm out of touch with the Tinder. You're definitely out of touch with that part of life. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:00:37 Which you should be. Let's hope you are. No, I should be. Let's hope you are. Red flag, mate, if I'm like, oh, if I get on your Tinder and I'm like,
Starting point is 00:00:43 swipe, swipe, swipe, zing, zing, zing, ding, ding, ding, ding, ding, if I get on your Tinder and I'm not answering that question you're both very different we'd find you different people eh ok actually you know what oh yeah yeah there's that but I think that Clint is probably how I'm how I would currently operate my dating apps whereas
Starting point is 00:01:18 Bree I would probably go for you because you will chuck some spice in there and like push, I'm not very good at pushing myself out there. Yeah. I'm a safe pair of hands on your hinge. You're more of a rogue operator. Which hasn't worked for her so far. You're more of a rip shit and bust.
Starting point is 00:01:35 Well, no offence, but I'm just saying, but you also don't want it to work. You're young, you don't want to find a serious relationship. I know that it is successful for people who like knuckle down, talk to people, want to find a serious relationship. I know that it is successful for people who knuckle down, talk to people, go to heaps of dates. Put in lots of time and effort. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:01:50 To be honest. To set up the spreadsheets. I went on hardly any dates from dating apps. Oh, brag about it. My sister made a great guy. Oh, happily in a relationship here. One and done. That was the opposite of a brag.
Starting point is 00:02:02 Oh, brag about it. I hardly went on any dates. Oh, yeah, yeah. Do you pay for any of your apps? No. A friend of mine sent me a porn account that she uses the other day. Sent me her logins. Is she paying for a porn account? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:02:18 Wait, what? I'm not going to say. No, don't say ho. No, but so it's actually really cool. Is this a woman's one? Yes. Oh my god. Everyone's talking about that. No but So it's So it's actually really cool It's like a Is this the woman's one? Yes Oh my god
Starting point is 00:02:27 Everyone's talking about that Because I think it's a great idea And it's a very inclusive Kind of Content made for females That isn't degrading And isn't You know
Starting point is 00:02:38 All the stuff that Let's be real Porn kind of is Oh yeah It's for men Yeah it's for Oh so I And it's made
Starting point is 00:02:45 for women but to be honest i hope that's the way that industry goes where it you know um what's it called um hold on it's got a weird it's like italian or something right my friend was talking about the other weekend hold on i'm just asking for a friend i will tell you what it is. It's called Bellessa. Yeah. B-E-L-L-E-S-A. Right. And do you have to pay for it? I think so. Oh, you have to pay for it.
Starting point is 00:03:11 I'm pretty sure it's a paid subscription. People are real scared, I imagine, to sign up to paid porn apps because you don't want it to ever come out that you've been paying for a porn app, eh? You don't want your credit card history to come out. I mean, if it's a tasteful one like this one, then I don't, to be honest, I'm not one of those people. I'm not ashamed. Like, obviously, I'm not someone who watches it a lot,
Starting point is 00:03:33 but I have watched it in the past. It's pretty normal. But you know what I'm saying? If you're applying for a mortgage and the bank goes, what was this transaction to BigMilks.com? That's why you pick one like Balessia or Balessa, which obviously you wouldn't be able to tell what that is. That's an Italian restaurant in Cairo.
Starting point is 00:03:47 You could say, yeah, that's a new collagen powder from the foothills of Venice. And they're like, wow, you go through a tub a month? And you're like, yeah, look at this skin. That Balessa, Balessa, whatever, that you could make anything. There are some other ones That you couldn't be like That's my new vibrator
Starting point is 00:04:06 Oh this is a This is a This hub is a A mall How many people do you think We're sending to Bellisa Right now Probably quite a few
Starting point is 00:04:15 A lot of girls are talking About it at the moment Is it an app Or an app and a website I think it's a website But I think it's a Safe like Space for women
Starting point is 00:04:23 And men And men to be honest For men as well Hopefully space for women and men, to be honest. For men as well. Hopefully for men. Not all men want to watch real predatory shit on their porn. Everyone wants to go steps into it, stuck in the dryer. A lot of people feel weird and awkward about it because of that reason. Because that's all they have, that image.
Starting point is 00:04:41 It's not very nice. I'm in that position. So I think it's really cool. I think it's an awesome thing and a great movement in that kind of industry to go that way. Yeah. We were having a chat about OnlyFans on the weekend, me and some friends.
Starting point is 00:04:58 Oh, my God. Someone messaged me about doing stuff on OnlyFans the other day. It was an email. Someone emailed me. Yeah. It's becoming more We think you could be A top influencer
Starting point is 00:05:07 And I was like Oh no Did you know Do they want you to be on OnlyFans Or do they want you to get people To use OnlyFans I don't know I think it was
Starting point is 00:05:14 I'd have to check It's becoming more and more normal But like You've still got to do it Right You've still got to I could never In a million years
Starting point is 00:05:23 I mean I could post pictures Of my feet But no one post pictures of my feet, but no one wants to see my feet. Well, no, people do want to see your feet. There's the thing. No, trust me. Once they saw my feet, they wouldn't want to see my feet. But do enough people who want to see your feet,
Starting point is 00:05:34 does it warrant doing it? Because then you're a foot-packed person and you're like, oh, I made $200. There's that friend of ours that does actual, yeah, she actually has an account and posts regularly. For feet? Yeah. Just for feet? Just for feet. Buzzy. Yeah. On OnlyFans. Do they have nice feet?
Starting point is 00:05:51 They've got amazing feet. Yeah, right. It works for them. They go and get pedicures and stuff like they make content around it too. And you know what? Those pedicures, tax deductible because it's a business expense. Oh yeah, true. The Uber to the pedicure place.
Starting point is 00:06:05 What's the biggest stretch that you've claimed something on tax where you've been like, oh, this could be in this category? You know, in Australia, and maybe this is wrong, so maybe someone will call me out for this, but I'm pretty sure. So in Australia, if you're a radio broadcaster like you and I and say you take a trip so say i took a trip to wherever say we were in brisbane and i flew to sydney for a trip yeah and i come back the next week and then i tell a story about that trip on the radio becomes
Starting point is 00:06:39 tax deductible a certain a certain amount of that trip is tax deductible yeah and that's just that is the same here right but if you ever get audited they'll want to see like yeah they'll be like if you so if you say 20 of that trip was to gather the story they'll go okay prove it show me you didn't do anything else for the radio we can't do that for in terms of radio stuff can we um oh no because you don't you're not a contractor to the radio Exactly No it's my day job Let's not give out I don't want to give out Tax advice

Shout out to my accountant. And I say to the accountant, just make me pay whatever I need to pay. And I don't care how much my accountant charges me. Just make sure we're safe. Actually, if my accountant is listening, I do care how much,

That's a good way to plant the seed. Yeah, that's a good... I feel a bit iffy in the stomach, actually. Hey, I'm sure there's hard-working people
Starting point is 00:10:05 who have been at work since nine o'clock this morning are keen to hear us planning to chuck a sickie at three in the afternoon. Yeah, why not? People need to support each other. Today on the show, your chance at 20 grand if you can open the box. Another clue today,
Starting point is 00:10:18 although it's not really a clue, is it? It's a clue that there's a clue coming soon. It's a clue about the clue that there's a clue that's coming soon. Yeah, it says, the game is rather hard, so I offer you a boon. You are searching for a secret word. It is coming soon. Has anyone tried boon? That's a weird word to put in the sentence.
Starting point is 00:10:36 That is a weird word. B-O-O-N? Could that be the word? What is it? What's the numbers for it? Don't know. We'll check them out. We're going to do a guess at 4 o'clock.
Starting point is 00:10:44 If you want to have a go at that 20 grand. I'm probably going to put that word in before 4 o'clock, though. Boone? Yeah, just for my own. I'm playing the game on my own now. All right, we'll eliminate Boone. And if it is the word, we'll really strongly encourage you to use that word at 4 o'clock. We'll start with 50 bucks cash.

I do love a barista. Yeah. Quite creative baristas, I think. Our barista today will be taking on our tradie, who's also a lady.

Starting point is 00:15:11 All right, this point is for the win. All right, here we go. Question number six. Name one of the teams in the Super Rugby final this weekend. Ladies. Amber. Canterbury Crusaders.
Starting point is 00:15:24 Oh, my God. No, Crusaders. Oh, my God. No, they lost. Oh, my God. Kayla, for the win, name one. Blues. Yeah, well done. The Blues is right. That was a real Monday game, everybody.
Starting point is 00:15:40 A real Monday. Can we find Amber some KFC chicken dollars, please? She was a bloody good time. And, Kayla, you did very well. The 50 bucks coming your way. Love you guys. Well done. See you, team.
Starting point is 00:15:51 I got an article which was talking about, I really like to reflect these days. I think it's as I've gotten older. You should start journaling. No, I don't know if I'm good at that. It's the ultimate reflection. Is it? It forces you to write down stuff
Starting point is 00:16:06 that's happened to you and then you can go and look at it. I say this as a non-journaler. It's extra work. And then I always see in movies or TV shows. Someone reads your journal? Someone reads the journal or they get what's named framed because of their journal. I don't know. The journal's just never... If I journaled
Starting point is 00:16:22 it would be the first three days would be there and then there'd be a gap of about six months and then there'd be another entry and go, sorry, I haven't journal. The journal's just never- If I journaled, it would be the first three days would be there, and then there'd be a gap of about six months, and then there'd be another entry and go, sorry, I haven't journaled for a while. Sorry, I've been too long. Yeah. And then that'd be the end of the journal.
Starting point is 00:16:32 Very long in between journaling. And when I die, my kids would find it and go, man, Dad didn't do much. But this is a study that's been done, and it's a good reflection on what people and Kiwis are like now after, you know, obviously all the lockdowns and the really bad stages of COVID. Are we the same, aren't we? And how it's changed people quite a lot.
Starting point is 00:16:53 What's different? Well, the first one is it talks about who's leading the way with financial caution. So who's looking after their money a little bit more, being a bit more, you know, cautious about their saving and stuff? Yeah. What generations do you think that would be? Millennials.
Starting point is 00:17:11 Millennials are one. Yeah. Gen Y. Yeah. So we are leading the way in terms of financial caution, whereas Gen X, not so much. Yeah, well, they're still at uni, so. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:22 Oh, no, not Gen X. No, they're the old ones. No, that's above us. Apparently Gen X. Millennials are being cautious because there's no jobs around. That's the problem. Has everybody halved the workforce when COVID happened? And so all these people graduating with these degrees and they're like, what am I going to do?
Starting point is 00:17:37 So, yeah, I understand that one. One of the other things that the study revealed is that over a third are exercising outdoors more than they were a year ago. Oh, yeah. That's awesome. Yeah. That's a great statistic. Yeah, let's see how long it lasts.
Starting point is 00:17:50 That's so good. 51% of New Zealanders are optimistic about travelling overseas in the next year. Oh, yeah. So over half the population. To Australia or Vanuatu. Still counts. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:00 Still counts. Over a third of New Zealanders are saving more money than what they used to. Oh, yeah. Which is great. Yeah. Well, good or bad. Eight out of 10 Kiwis are making do with the food they have in the cupboard.
Starting point is 00:18:13 Yeah, okay. Instead of going and buying everything. No, no, no. There's a reason for that. You know why it is? Why? Because everybody stockpiled in lockdown and now they've got 15 jars of peanut butter, 45 jars of canned
Starting point is 00:18:26 tomatoes, more coconut milk than they know what to do with. And so they have to, they have to make room in their pantry. So they're just eating the pantry. You know, that's the one thing I would stockpile. Like if there was an actual apocalypse, I'd be like canned tomatoes and pasta. And you're good to go. And rice. Rice is a good one too. Over a third are reading more online news and watching more TV and listening to more radio than they were a year ago. Well, as people who work at a radio and newspaper company, can we say thank you very much?
Starting point is 00:18:56 Great statistic. Probably my favourite. Bree and Clint from iHeartRadio. This is the latest live from LA with Dee McCarthy. Coming to us live from country Queensland, not quite Los Angeles today, Dean McCarthy, with details on a Friends cruise. Yes, well, hi there. G'day, g'day.
Starting point is 00:19:16 Okay, so here's the deal, right? I've been in the country for a minute, so I've transformed. But I have some very exciting news for Friends fans. It's going to send them into a Friends frenzy. Basically, they are going to do a Friends celebrity cruise line cruise. So it's happening next year, right? And it's leaving from Fort Lauderdale.
Starting point is 00:19:36 And there's this big cruise liner. It's called the Equinox Celebrity Boat. You know those fabulous big cruise ships. They're like 10 stories high with swimming pools. It's one of those. But it's a Friends-themed cruise. There's going to be Friends dress-up parties. Come as your best friend's character.
Starting point is 00:19:51 There will be trivia night, games, all these kinds of things. But unfortunately, I can confirm there will be none of the cast on there because can you imagine what Jennifer Anderson would charge to go on a cruise with a 2,000 fans? She'd never do it. She'd never do it. There's nowhere to happen. There's nowhere to escape.
Starting point is 00:20:06 No. If she gets mobbed, she's stuck on a boat with these crazy Friends fans for what? Seven days? Nine days? That cruise sounds like hell on earth to me. And also, are we going on cruise ships after COVID? Are we going back onto cruise ships? Well, they were definitely not the place to be when COVID started to hit and a lot of people got stuck.
Starting point is 00:20:28 They got stuck on them with COVID. Yeah. Yeah. In cruise ships. Look, I don't think that that is for me. I'm a massive Friends fan, but I'm going to pass on that one. There's something in it, though. They'll start doing themed ones.
Starting point is 00:20:41 They can do a Seinfeld cruise. They can do a Big Bang Theory cruise. Just don't do a Titanic themed cruise. Oh, too far, mate. Whatever you do, just don't do. Too soon. Don't do Titanic. Don't do Battleship.
Starting point is 00:20:55 Don't do. Kate Winslet nearly lost her life on that boat. That's the latest on ZM Bree and Clint. Bree and Clint. But speaking of money, there's been a graph release that shows how much money you need to earn
Starting point is 00:21:09 to be able to afford to buy just the average house in your area. Why do you always bring these stories up? Yeah. Because you own a house. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:19 You don't have these worries or someone's calling you. It's probably your mortgage broker looking at your next rental property that you're going to add to your portfolio. Not now, man. I'm on the radio. As someone who doesn't own a house and probably believes I will never be able to afford a house now, I don't want to know.
Starting point is 00:21:36 Why do I bring it up? I want to know. Well, good point. Is it good news? Is it good news? There is some good news. Yeah, there's some good news. That means a lot.

If you're not following Britney Spears on Instagram, you should. Yeah. Because she actually does a lot of posting on her Instagram. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:03 She put up that red fridge. Yes. That was good. She does fashion shows of posting on her Instagram. Oh, yeah. She put up that red fridge. Yes. That was good. She does fashion shows when she gets new clothes. There's a whole podcast which talks about what they believe she's actually trying to say through her Instagram posts. The secret messages in there. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:17 It's quite interesting. Do you believe that there are secret messages in the posts? Maybe not all of them. Maybe some of them. Okay. I don't know But recently she has put up a picture of herself in a hot pink leotard Where she's revealed a tattoo that is on the very top of her neck Just below her hairline
Starting point is 00:24:38 Did we know of any tattoos that Brittany had before this one? It says here in this that she's known to have a number of small tattoos on different parts of her body, including an image of a dice on her wrist, a triangle on her right hand, and a fairy inked on her lower back. Got it. Okay, so it's not the first tattoo that we're hearing about. No. No, good.
Starting point is 00:25:00 No, no, no. Anyway, she says on the pose, hot pink makes my tan pop. Have you seen the tattoo on the back of my neck before? It's Hebrew. It's a language written backwards. It says mem, hey, shin and means healing. It's my favourite tattoo but ironically you never see it. Who knew she was Jewish?
Starting point is 00:25:21 I didn't. I don't think she is, is she? Oh, I don't know. She's getting Hebrew tattoos tattooed on her. Yeah, but then a lot of people get Chinese writing on them too. Are those people not Chinese? I don't think so. Wait.
Starting point is 00:25:33 I'm pretty sure some of them aren't. Wait a second. I know. How do they know what it says then? Yeah. Didn't David Beckham get Chinese lettering? He's definitely got Chinese symbols. And didn't it say the wrong thing?
Starting point is 00:25:45 Like, didn't he get something written on there? I feel like this is everyone's, like, you're asking for it. Especially if you're a tattoo artist of Chinese descent and some person comes in. Have some fun with it. Yeah, and they've got no respect for the culture or no knowledge of what they're getting. And they go, hey, man, I want you to write infinity in Chinese language on my arm.
Starting point is 00:26:08 And you're like, cool, Cantonese or Mandarin? And they're like, what? And you're like, don't worry about it, man. I'll take care of it. And then you just write ball bag on their forearm in Chinese lettering. I'm sure it happens a lot. Anyway, so there you go. There's a tattoo that we didn't know Britney Spears had.
Starting point is 00:26:23 What does it mean, sorry? Her one? It's in Hebrew, but it means healing. Healing. Yeah. Okay. So maybe, you know, I don't know why she got that or the story behind it.
Starting point is 00:26:34 Do you think it actually says healing? Or she said to the tattoo artist afterwards, she said, how does it look? And he said, good, it's healing. And she's taken that as going, oh, great. Now I've got a tattoo that says healing. He's like, no, it says, you know what, don't worry. It's fine.
Starting point is 00:26:47 That's what it says. It's on the back of your neck. You're not going to see it. It's healing. Don't worry about it. It's healing. I want to ask people this afternoon, do they have a really weird tattoo origin story?
Starting point is 00:26:58 Yeah. Like a real weird reason they got a tattoo or a really weird story behind the time they got a tattoo. But I mean, most of my tattoos are off a whim. What's the origin? You've got that New South Wales Waratah and you're from Queensland.
Starting point is 00:27:15 So why did you get that tattoo? What's the origin of that one? I'm not even acknowledging this shit joke anymore. That's what it is. It is a crap joke. And when you got the Taylor Swift 13 tattooed on there, which album was it from, I'm not acknowledging. Which album was it from? I'm not acknowledging. You can't even ask me about it because you don't even have any tattoos.
Starting point is 00:27:30 Because you know what Clint said to me? Not that you've seen. Clint said to me, he goes, you know why I don't have any tattoos? And I said, why not? And he goes, you don't put bumper stickers on a Ferrari. And I said, jeez. And I think that's some of the best advice I've doled out. And I said, you drive an Audi.
Starting point is 00:27:48 What are you talking about? No bummer stickers on that either. What's the origin story of your tattoo? Yeah, do you have a weird one? Is there a weird reason behind your tattoo? You can call us 0800-DIAL-ZM or text us on 9696. What's the really weird origin story of your tattoo? I've got a friend of mine and she became friends with one of my other friends
Starting point is 00:28:16 and I was like, okay, you know when that happens, you're like, that's a bit strange and you see them hanging out together and all that kind of stuff. Especially when they cut you out of the loop. Yeah. You're like, you guys only know each other because of me. I got a bit cut out of the loop and I was a bit butthurt over it and they were super close for this short period of time. Yeah. And I remember watching on social media
Starting point is 00:28:36 that this one weekend they were having an absolute bender and they got these matching tattoos. You should have been invited to get that tattoo. I know. They already know each other because of you. I know. Anyway, they got these matching tattoos. You should have been invited to get that tattoo. I know. They already know each other because of you. I know. Anyway, they got these matching tattoos and now I think they both regret it massively. You should go and get the same tattoo and just show them
Starting point is 00:28:56 and be like, hey guys, I got our tattoo. You know what the tattoo is? What? So it's a bird cage with birds flying out of the cage but then the tattooist forgot to put a door on the cage. Oh, right. So it's just birds with an open cage. That's not a cage.
Starting point is 00:29:10 No, there's no open. It's got no door. Yeah. Yeah. Oh, so how'd the birds get out? Exactly. Oh, right. Well, maybe don't get that tattoo.
Starting point is 00:29:17 We'll talk to Niamh. Hi, Niamh. Hi, Niamh. Hi. Is this the Prime Minister's daughter that we're speaking to? I hope not, if she's tattooed. I was going to say, I don't think she's got any tattoos yet, or if she has, she hasn't told Jacinda.
Starting point is 00:29:29 What's the tattoo that you got, Niamh, that's got a weird origin story? So a couple of weekends ago, it was really rainy in Christchurch and my dad was down to visit, and we couldn't come up with a rainy day activity, and so he suggested we went and got matching tattoos. So we got matching capybara tattoos, because he looks a bit like a capybara. You and your dad got matching tattoos? Your dad sounds awesome.
Starting point is 00:29:52 That is so cool. And wait, just to check, a capybara is that weird-looking hamster thing, right? It's the world's largest rodent, yes. And your dad looks like the world's largest rodent? Oh, that's a bit mean. No, so he just looks a little bit like a capybara. Right, right, yes. And your dad looks like the world's largest rodent. Oh, that's a bit mean. No, so he just looks a little bit like a capybara. Right, right, right. They're quite cute, but they do look like a giant rat.
Starting point is 00:30:10 Cute. You've got a dead capybara tattoo. I love that story, Niamh. You're not going to regret that. Yeah. No, because people say, what did you get a tattoo of? And I say, I got a tattoo of my dad. And they say, what?
Starting point is 00:30:20 And then I lift up my, like, my legging. And I'm like, thanks. It's a capybara. Yeah. I really like it. That's good.bab bar. Yeah. I really like it. That's good. Jaden's here. Hi, Jaden.
Starting point is 00:30:27 Hi, Jaden. Hey, guys. How's it going? Good, thanks. Can you top that? How did you get a tattoo? What's the origin story? So my family, for Christmas, we do the old secret sander where we put the name out of the hat.
Starting point is 00:30:40 Yeah. And I got my stepdad, who pretty much has everything. So I thought, you know, it would be funny, I got his nickname tattooed on my shoulder. What's the nickname, Jaden? His nickname is Teabag. You got Teabag. Did you get a teabag or did you write teabag?
Starting point is 00:31:00 I got a teabag, but the one that goes in the cup. The one that goes in the cup. Oh, thank God. Okay. I mean, still, you got teabagged on your shoulder. You got teabagged for your stepdad's secret Santa. Is that correct? Jaden, I applaud that gift.
Starting point is 00:31:15 I applaud that. It's very good. It was hilarious until Boxing Day, and then I was like, I can't return that. Yeah, no, you can't return that. And he can't keep it either, so. No, he can't. It'd be a bit weird if he did.
Starting point is 00:31:26 God, it's going to be hard to figure out a better Christmas present for next year, isn't it? Hope you don't draw him again. Yeah, how do you top it? I'd love to get Jaden for Secret Santa. Get a face tattoo for him, Jaden. Big weekend, big weekend for me over the weekend. Bree, I got back on Tinder.
Starting point is 00:31:41 Did you? Yeah. Does your wife know? Have you told her? No, I haven't told her that I was back on Tinder. That's probably a bit wrong, isn't it? I was on Bumble as well, actually, over the weekend. What's your favourite?
Starting point is 00:31:51 I feel like Tinder people are looking just for a bit of fun and Bumble people are a bit more serious about a relationship. That's my interpretation from being back on it over the weekend. And you've got to understand, I haven't been on Tinder since. Ever. I was on it very briefly in 2013 when it first came out. And then I met my wife. You got banned and then you weren't allowed back on until now.
Starting point is 00:32:13 Yeah, I got suspended. What did you get suspended for? Too many DPs? Too hot. Too many DPs. Too many matches. Too many offensive photographs. Not true.
Starting point is 00:32:24 And look, I was on Tinder over the weekend. I was on my friend's Tinder. We went to the rugby and afterwards we went to a bar and he's single, my friend Paul, and he was actually Tindering at the game. And I was like, come on, man, put the Tinder away. No, that's pretty normal to Tinder at a game because you would know if you were actually in the world of dating
Starting point is 00:32:42 that it's a good opportunity because there's a lot of people within your radius that will pop up on your phone and you know that they've got a common interest because if they're at the rugby, then you might have that common interest. Do you close your radius down to like one kilometre kind of thing? You can if you want to. See, I should know that because I was on the dating apps. A few observations from me and this is helpful for anyone who's out there on the dating apps.
Starting point is 00:33:07 Here's an outsider's perspective. Stop calling it the dating apps. Okay. Those are people who are out there on the apps. Is that what I call it? Just say Tinder. Or Bumble though. It's Bumble as well.
Starting point is 00:33:17 I was bumbling. I mean, people know what you mean. I'm right about Tinder versus Bumble, right? The Bumble is they're looking for a relationship and the Tinder is looking for a, you know, a little bit of... No, I think that's Grindr Bumble is they're looking for a relationship and the Tinder is looking for a little bit of that. No, I think that's Grindr is the one you're looking for. Were you on that too? No, not on Grindr, no.
Starting point is 00:33:32 Did you jump onto Grindr? No, my friend Paul is looking for a female. So there's nothing for him on Grindr. Just for yourself, did you jump on Grindr? He'd go great on Grindr though. God, he'd be a hit if he was on there. This took me a long time to get my head around. Left is yes
Starting point is 00:33:47 and right is no is that it? is it left to say yes and right is no? no I'm pretty sure left is no left is no
Starting point is 00:33:54 right is yes whatever it is figure that out first is my first bit of advice don't swipe up because I did that accidentally because I thought that meant look at more of their profile
Starting point is 00:34:03 do you know what up is? super like so I ended up super liking these people that accidentally because I thought that meant look at more of their profile. Do you know what up is? Super like. So I ended up super liking these people that my friend Paul actually had no interest in. Now you've used all of Paul's super likes. And then I used his super like, yeah. And then what else was interesting about my time on Tinder?
Starting point is 00:34:20 How was your chat? Did you chat to anyone? So the chat bit is the main bit, right? That's the thing. I cringe at the thought of you chatting up women. Like, I just, I can't picture it. Well, I said to Paul, I said, get me out of this swiping game, man. There's too much.
Starting point is 00:34:33 There's too much. I want to get into it. It's a bloody meat market out here. Did you say, I want to get into a more serious relationship with someone you've been chatting to? Oh, yeah. I said, let me loose on the combos
Starting point is 00:34:43 because, look, mate, I talk for a living. Let me loose in there. Pretty good. I reckon I went pretty good in there. Here's the problem. You know the only people that say,
Starting point is 00:34:52 I think I went pretty good? Who? It's the people who are out of touch. No. No, I reckon we're pretty good. It was late at night.
Starting point is 00:34:58 No one was responding. Okay, what was one of your pieces of banter? see, this is my thing. This is my thing and this is my observation.
Starting point is 00:35:04 Not appropriate for the radio. No, no, it's not that. I think there's too much pressure on the chat. And everyone's like, oh, I've got to come in with a hot one-liner. Got to open the chat with a bit of banter. Please tell me. There's so much pressure. Did you open, was one of your opening lines, hi?
Starting point is 00:35:20 Or hey? Yeah, I was like, hey, so-and-so, how's it going? Swipe left. No? Swipe left. No. Swipe left. No. Left. Boring.

Starting point is 00:39:31 Bree and Clint said it Bree and Clint It has happened again This keeps happening A new record sale price for a pot plant on Trade Me was achieved last night Yeah, it's the new type of hit thing on the block for marijuana, isn't it? No, this is not marijuana. Marijuana, arguably...
Starting point is 00:39:52 It's not even a marijuana plant. Arguably marijuana more useful than this. What do you mean, arguably? Well, the people who are buying this variegated minima, which sold last night for a stupid amount of money, are hoping they can do cuttings and then they grow it and they sell it on.
Starting point is 00:40:09 So it's a business. Yeah, so they're looking at investing in a business plant. It's the most expensive. It's not a business plan. It's a business plant. Yeah. Money doesn't grow on trees. Grows on variegated minimas.
Starting point is 00:40:28 Last night, one with nine leaves sold for $27,100. I mean, shout out to my community, the Indoor Plants NZ group. We're a tight community. And I saw them going crazy about this on that page over the last couple of days. Yes. $27,000. Well, they're all excited because they're all hoping they're sitting on a $27,000. Some of them will be whipping up a variegated minima in there.
Starting point is 00:40:50 They'll be doing a variegated something. Why though? Why so expensive? Even if you can do cuttings from it, why? Because of the colouring. Because it's half white, half green. And it's a mutation. Look, I know it's confusing,
Starting point is 00:41:04 but I also know that you've gone from being someone who got quite angry about these sales to someone who's now part of the New Zealand indoor pot plant community on Facebook. No, I love the community. It's a great page to follow. I learn a lot of things, but I've found that a lot of people on this page
Starting point is 00:41:20 and this community agree with me and think that that is crazy money. It is crazy money. And it's stupid. We, this afternoon, want to encourage your indoor pot plant habit, Brie. And that's why we've got something for you. Have you got me a variegated minima? No, we've got you a standard orchid.
Starting point is 00:41:37 Oh, no. That we purchased from the florist. So what you're receiving here is a healthy flowering orchid. It currently has one, two, three, four, five flowers on it and one, two, three, four, five buds that are about to flower on it. I love an orchid. Yes. It's one of my favourite flowers.
Starting point is 00:41:59 Yes. Do you know how many of these I've killed? All of them? A lot. Yeah. I even looked after one one time for my friend when she went away for two weeks. Two weeks.
Starting point is 00:42:09 Killed it. So this is your challenge, Bray. They're so hard to keep alive. Four weeks. Your challenge is to keep this orchid alive for four weeks. And if you can, Ross Boss has said that he will send you and one ZM listener on a $500 indoor plant shopping spree.
Starting point is 00:42:26 No. You can buy pots. You can buy soils. You can buy gloves. You can buy flowers. You can buy philodendrons. You can buy monsteras. You can buy ficuses.
Starting point is 00:42:35 You can buy rubber trees. Whatever you want to buy. So I get to like reward someone. Yes. And take them and they can spend whatever they want. Yes. You guys get to go shopping together. But this orchid must be alive and in as good condition as it currently is.
Starting point is 00:42:48 What's technically alive? The flowers are still on it. What if it drops them? We'll know if it's alive. Okay, you'll be able to tell. So we know that the orchid is not being changed out for a fresh one, like parents do with dead goldfish. The orchid is going to live here in the ZM Studios.
Starting point is 00:43:06 Oh, that's rough. It gets sunlight. It gets a constant temperature, okay? And all you've got to do is keep it alive. So if you would like to partake in the $500 shopping spree with Bree, all you've got to do is text us right now with your best advice for how to keep an orchid alive. I feel like, you know, this is my opportunity
Starting point is 00:43:26 to show my community at Indoor Plants New Zealand. Yeah, that you're worthy. I'm worthy and I'm meant to be in this group. I don't think I will succeed but I will give it a go. No, and neither do I. We haven't bothered finding the $500 yet. Bree and Clint. All right, guys.
Starting point is 00:43:45 It's time for Mind Blown Mondays. On Mind Blown Mondays we attempt to blow your mind first of all and then you try to blow our mind. It's not an easy thing
Starting point is 00:43:56 to do, right? Because you have to kind of line up a coincidence that hits at the exact right time and makes us feel like whoa!
Starting point is 00:44:05 Because if it's not quite right and it's not quite there, the feeling, the euphoric emotion isn't there, you'll get the fart. It's such a brutal fart too. It's a very, like it's vicious. It's vicious. You have time to sit in that fart and think about what you've done. I would call that a violent fart. Now you're going to go first?
Starting point is 00:44:30 Yeah, this is crazy because we struggle to find these stories for this segment and I open up and I'm doing my work this morning and I'm looking for stuff and I was like, oh my god, this is the perfect Mind Blown Monday. So it's not a personal story, right? No, it's not a personal story. So I will feel better if I need to give you the fart.
Starting point is 00:44:47 Okay. Okay? But I think it's good. Okay, good. I think it might be worthy. I want it to blow my mind. And I've got audio. Okay, you've done your research.
Starting point is 00:44:54 To go with it today. So I'll give you a bit of background. So the story is about a woman who she has gone thrifting. So she's gone to, you know, like- Op shopping. Op shopping. And she's gone to go buy some bedside tables for her room. Yes.
Starting point is 00:45:09 So let's pick up the story here. She explains what happened. I bought these nightstands for $12.99 each at Goodwill today, okay? And I go through the drawers and I find this little crumbled up paper. It legit says Carly's home number and mom's cell phone number. It has my mom's cell phone number and our home phone number from like 15 years ago. Like, what?
Starting point is 00:45:30 My youngest sister's name is Carly, and that's our home phone number. We have not had a home phone probably like 10 to 15 years. What are the chances of that? I go thrifting, and I end up with nightstands owned by one of my little sister's friends. Oh, no, wrong one, wrong one, wrong one. No, that was an accident.
Starting point is 00:45:49 So to break it down... What are the chances? If you didn't really follow, she went out to, you know, op shop and she bought these bedside tables. Inside the drawer was a crumpled up piece of paper with her sister's name and her mum's mobile number. From when she was a kid. From when she was a kid. From when she was a kid and their own home phone number.
Starting point is 00:46:07 So like one of her sister's friends owned those bedside tables. And their numbers were in it. And had written down her best friend's home phone number and mum's phone number and stored them in the back of the dresser. Come on. And there was nothing else left in the dresser except that one thing. And then that girl just happened to buy them and happened to find them. What are the odds?
Starting point is 00:46:30 See, that's where the limit is. It makes you go, whoa. And I found this story today on a mind-blown Monday. Yeah. Don't push it. Oh, okay. Oh, $800 at M. Do you want the chance to blow our minds?
Starting point is 00:46:43 Do you have a coincidence that's happened in your life which just you can't work out you can't put it down to anything other than it's just too mind blowing yeah

Starting point is 00:47:17 Where you have the chance to blow our mind with a story, a coincidence that's happened in your life. But be careful, because if it doesn't blow our mind... You get the fart. You get farted out. And it's all in good fun. We love you. It's done with love.
Starting point is 00:47:32 Yeah, we don't want to fart you out. But we have to be real. We will if we have to. So the first brave person to step up and tell their story is Paul. Hi, Paul. G'day, Paul. Howdy, how we doing? Good, thanks, Paul.
Starting point is 00:47:43 Tell us, what's your big coincidence story? So I started dating this girl about five years ago. We're now engaged had our first son about three months ago so you could say it's going reasonably well. Yeah, it's on track. Nice work Paul. Yeah, on track. Congrats. Cheers, cheers. Hey so we're looking back through old family photos. We're about three years into the relationship at this point, and we pulled out a family photo of a fifth birthday party
Starting point is 00:48:13 that we were both at about 30 years ago. Both of me, her, and her brother all sitting around enjoying some cherry toast. Wait, wait a minute. Paul, this will make or break it for me, and I think probably for Clint as well. Whereabouts did you grow up? Christ's church. Oh, come on.
Starting point is 00:48:38 It's New Zealand, Paul. It's New Zealand. At some stage, we've all shared a sausage with somebody, you know? Yeah. I get the vibe for you guys. You would have been like, oh, my God. That's wild. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:50 But it's like my sister and her now husband, they saw a picture of themselves at a birthday party together back in the day. But, I mean, there's only, you know, four people that come from Stanthorpe. Sorry, Paul. Sorry. Good story, though, Paul. Lame. L, Paul. Sorry. Good story, though, Paul. Lame. See ya.
Starting point is 00:49:06 Still cool, though, Paul. Let's get Janine on. Hi, Janine. Hi, Jeannie. Oh, Jeannie. Hi, Jeannie. Hi, how's it going? I don't think Paul took it very well.
Starting point is 00:49:15 Promise us you'll take it better. If we're forced, if we're forced to fart you out, okay? Okay, but I bet you you won't. Okay, good attitude. Come on, Jeannie. Come on, give it to us. Okay, so I took my about seven, eight-year-old daughter on a school trip which was making art out of recycled stuff,
Starting point is 00:49:31 junk, and she went along all the way down this long thing all the way down the room and chose the piece of thing that she wanted to make her art out of and brought it to me to show me. And it was my dad's scuba diving flipper that he threw out in the inorganic collection years prior. And you were at a random junkyard. This wasn't on your property. It was actually, it was out in West Auckland where they do art and they'd just basically
Starting point is 00:49:58 gone out to the chip and got a whole bunch of staff and then brought it in. How did you know it was your dad's? Because it had his initials, BD, written on the front of the flipper and I grew up looking at those flippers.
Starting point is 00:50:13 There's enough distance, there's enough removal in that story that it's like... It's gone away from the complete environment and then somehow
Starting point is 00:50:21 managed to come back to you. Yeah. Do you think that... She chose it. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And you're... She was drawn to that. But she chose it out of the whole thing. She was drawn to that thing. For some reason, she saw that thing and she went, I need to pick this flipper.
Starting point is 00:50:31 Because why would a kid pick a flipper as well? Weird thing to choose. I believe in people sending you messages. Do you think that was your dad sending you a message? Oh, well, yeah, absolutely. And you should have seen his face when we took the finished art back to him and showed it. Oh, he's not dead.
Starting point is 00:50:45 No, he's not dead yet. Oh. Well, yeah, absolutely. And you should have seen his face when we took the finished art back to him and showed it. Oh, he's not dead. Oh, he's not dead yet. No, he's not dead yet. Well, good. That's great news, Jenny. Good. Okay, right there. I feel like I should be farted out for that. The dad could still be sending messages.
Starting point is 00:50:56 The dad could have gone, hey, when you go to the junk shop, I've got an old flipper out the back. I'm just going to hold on. I missed that flipper. I'm just going to remove my foot from my mouth. Is it Shaya? Do we say Shaya? Hi, yeah, it's Chaya. Chaya.
Starting point is 00:51:10 Okay, Chaya. We're one and one. You will make or break the segment as to whether we get a success or a failure this week. When you're ready, blow our minds. Alrighty, I've got a goodie. Okay, so in high school, there was a new guy that started at my high school. One thing leads to another. We ended up going, we're dating, and I ended up bringing him home to meet my parents.
Starting point is 00:51:31 And I walked into the room with him, and my mum looked him dead in the eyes and said, I know what your name is. This is exactly what your name is. Your birthday is March 6th. That's my birthday. You were born in the hospital room over from my daughter, Chaya, who you're now dating, and you're an hour, you were born an hour after her, and your mum was still out
Starting point is 00:51:54 and screaming and really put me off my game. Wait, wait. Wait, so you're dating, you were dating the guy that was born an hour after you in the same hospital, near the same bed. And how did your mum know? Has she kept in contact with that other mum? She met his mum after he was born. And, like, I don't know how it all works, but she met him,
Starting point is 00:52:15 and she was like, yep, this is your mum's name. I remember meeting her in the hospital. I know exactly who you are. I recognise your face. People say he's got a real baby face. Yeah, well, Yeah, he does. This is the important detail because we farted out the first guy for a fifth birthday coincidence.
Starting point is 00:52:30 This is essentially a first birthday or a zero birthday coincidence. This is the clincher. Has your mum kept in contact with that other mum at all or has she recognised your boyfriend from a baby? Yes. Well, funny thing is, is my dad actually grew up with his mum. So my mum's not from Auckland, but his mum actually knows my dad as well,
Starting point is 00:52:53 and she's kept in contact because she knows my dad. Wait, where was this? So this is in Auckland, but my mum is from, like, far north, Northland. But this happened in Auckland? Yeah, this people in Auckland, but my mum is from like far north, Northland. But this happened in Auckland? Yeah, this happened in Auckland. And you were born in Northland? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:12 Oh, that's pretty. You know what, I'm going to do it, I'm going to do it. I'm going to do it. It was touch and go. It was touch and go. Oh, it was touch and go. No, no, yeah, it was a big coincidence. No, absolutely big coincidence.
Starting point is 00:53:28 Absolutely big coincidence. We're just trying to keep the bar high. Oh, man, this is so hard. Thank you, Chai. Thank you for calling out. We really appreciate it. Do you think it was your dad or your mum's way of sending you a message? Oh, well, it didn't last long.
Starting point is 00:53:40 He dumped me over text a couple months after that. After all that, you were born together. Bree and Clint. Hey. It's my birthday. It's my birthday. Bree and Clint's birthday banger. We're not, like, you know, tore up about it.
Starting point is 00:53:55 We don't think about it, obviously. Oh, obviously, we don't dwell on it or anything. No, no, no, no. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, not at all. Let's go to Hester. Hi, Hester. Hi, Hester.
Starting point is 00:54:03 Hello. Hello. What's your birthday, Hester? 2nd October, 88. All right, you were 16 in 2004 on the 2nd of October. And in 2004, this reached the top of the chart. Oh, banger. Great music video as well.

Starting point is 00:55:38 How are you? Good, thank you. How was the Monday? Out of 10? Was it, you know, solid? Or was the boss a bit of an a-hole today? Oh, look, I'm glad to be driving home. That's all I'm going to say.
Starting point is 00:55:50 Yes, Zoe. Okay, Zoe, give us your birthday. Same here. Ross Boss, what a tool. What's your birthday, Zoe? 9th of September, 1988. All right, you were 16 in 2004 on the 9th of September. And on that day, this was number one.
Starting point is 00:56:12 Mr. Second Place on the first season of New Zealand Idol, Topor's finest, Michael Murphy. What do you think, Zoe? Is it horrible to say I've never heard that song before? You've never heard Michael Murphy? You're more of a Ben Lummis girl, were you? I know who Michael Murphy is, but I've never heard that song. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 00:56:32 Okay. Not much cut through this song, apparently. Well, number one, but I think only briefly. Okay, Zoe, wait there. It's between Aaron's Duffy, Zoe's Michael Murphy, and Hester's Goodies. Are we in a Duffy mood? Usually I would go Sierra and Goodies, but I feel like I Are we in a Duffy mood? Usually I would go Sierra and goodies, but I feel like I might be in a Duffy mood.
Starting point is 00:56:49 You're going to go up the Duff. I want to go up the Duff with Aaron today. I loved Aaron, the dirty guy. I'm going to go goodies Sierra. Okay, you're going to split the vote. We will go to a decider. We haven't done this for a while. The deciding vote goes to producer Anastasia this afternoon.
Starting point is 00:57:06 Anastasia, pick the winner of Birthday Banger. When I turn your microphone on, pick the winner of Birthday Banger. Were you pre-thinking that I wasn't going to say your vote? Because I'm definitely going for goodies. Yes, Anastasia! Shouldn't have turned my mic on, mate. Yes! Well, that's decided it then.
Starting point is 00:57:25 Sexy, independent girl. The winner of Birthday Banger is Hester and Sierra and Goodies. Yeah. Yeah, girl. Let's go. Brian Clint, ZM. I got my sick repetition. ZM, Brian Clint, the winner of Birthday Banger today is Sierra and Goodies.
Starting point is 00:57:43 We're just in the studio watching the music video. It's a good video. If there is a woman that oozes sex appeal, it's Sierra. Oh, yeah. And just effortlessly. What year is this song again?
Starting point is 00:57:55 Um, Goodies. I'm scrumptious. I'm going to say 2005. 2004. Yeah, right. Just so, just like attractive and cool. Whereas I'm the complete opposite of that.
Starting point is 00:58:16 So when I see women like that, I'm like, how do they do it? You do you, boo. How do they do that? Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome to the studio fellow Aussies, Matt and Jack from the Inspired Unemployed. Welcome to New Zealand. Thank you. How's that applause?
Starting point is 00:58:33 I know, it feels good. Yeah, we have a crowd that's out there in the booth that just does it. Just give them a little wave. Thank you guys. You have to come in every day and make us feel good. Yeah, yeah, it's good for us. It's good self-esteem. Speaking of feeling good, do you guys feel all right after getting tackled
Starting point is 00:58:45 by the All Blacks? Feeling pretty rough to be honest. I was just worried about this nose ring. I just got that put in. So the nose ring is part of what you guys
Starting point is 00:58:52 have been doing with Uber, right? It's the this or that thing where people decide what you have to do. What was the other option? I got my nipple and he got his nose.

Starting point is 00:59:06 That's a lot. Give us a look. We wanted to do something similar with you guys this afternoon. So while you're here, we thought, why let the fun stop now? Even though the Uber part of it is over. Uh-oh, what's going on here? What about some more this or that? I thought we could play a bit of a game where we come up with, you know,
Starting point is 00:59:21 the this or the that, and then you guys can pick the this or the that for each other. Okay. Who wants to go first? Yep. Get it over and done with. You're in, Jack. All right.

Starting point is 00:59:44 No. What is this? Or. Or is my spring in. So that's one of your options. It doesn't look great. I'll be honest. No. What is this? Or, or, or, who is the most famous person in your phone right now? I'll do the shot.

Starting point is 01:02:35 People are fuzzing at the idea of going, buying themselves some furniture in a box, going home, getting out their shitty screwdriver that they got as a promotional screwdriver with a box of going home, getting out their shitty screwdriver that they got
Starting point is 01:02:45 as a promotional screwdriver with a box of beer once. An Ikea flat pack is actually worse than a fart in the face. Exactly right. It's worse for your relationship than cheating. It's terrible. You do that with your partner, you guys are going to break up. I've always got leftover screws. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:01 Always. You say to your partner, babe, look. But like after a breakup with a partner. All right, I knew we were going there. You say to your partner, babe, look. But like, after a breakup with a partner. Alright, that's there. I knew we were going there. Ikea have announced, there are some announcements for Ikea in New Zealand. This has been coming for a while and
Starting point is 01:03:13 I actually, being from Aussie, when you talked to me about it one time. Do you guys have Ikea over there? Well, I was like, what do you mean you don't have Ikea? Because that's something that's been in Australia for ages. All we've got is Kmart. Yeah, because we've also got Big W, Target.
Starting point is 01:03:31 Big W? Now you're just making up shots. No, that's a real shot. You're a Big W, by the way. It's a real shot. You're a Big W. That's how I refer to you. You're a little W.
Starting point is 01:03:42 Ikea. This is good. This is the news you want, okay? Ikea have announced. Yeah, this is what news you want, okay? Ikea have announced. Is it? Yeah, this is what you want. Is it? They will announce, they have announced they'll open their store in New Zealand in the next three or four months. Whoa! That's pretty soon.
Starting point is 01:03:54 Seems fast, considering we don't even know if they've begun building the store yet. But I assume the store is a flat pack that you can put together afterwards. It'll be like, you know, done in like two or three weeks. Yeah, yeah, yeah. There will be one full-sized IKEA store in Auckland where people can go in and access the entire IKEA range. They'll also have the IKEA experience,
Starting point is 01:04:13 which I assume means the cheap hot dogs. And the Swedish meatballs. And the meatballs. To be honest, that's my favourite thing about IKEA. If I'm completely honest, I don't want to get anyone's hopes up, but the best thing about Ikea is the $1 hot dogs and the cheap meatballs.
Starting point is 01:04:29 Okay, well, good for that then. Keen for those. That's a great time, I'm not going to lie. It is a little bit more expensive than what you'd imagine. Ikea is? Yeah, the furniture. So the whole idea of Ikea was it was cheap. Is it not? Well, maybe it's because I used to go there in my early 20s
Starting point is 01:04:46 and I was a student and had no money. But that's who they're targeting. Surely that's who they're targeting. I could never afford anything from Ikea. Right, okay. So don't go in there expecting to get a whole kitchen for, you know, $250 because not the case. They're opening an Ikea studio in Wellington
Starting point is 01:05:03 and they're opening an even smaller Ikea store in Christchurch. But the entire Ikea range is going to be available on their online store in New Zealand. Oh, so you can buy it online. So if you love Ikea, you can buy it online. So if you're from Invercargill, you can still purchase something online and get it sent to you. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:05:19 Oh, cool. You can buy your $1 hot dogs and they'll put it in a little courier bag. I can't wait to get the hot dogs on Uber Eats. Yeah, yes. Bree and Clint. From the people who bought you aviation news and maritime news comes some Bree and Clint. It's just awful time until I get the thing.
Starting point is 01:05:37 Space news. We've got space news, baby. There's been a lot of space news lately. Has there? Yeah, there was talks of Jeff Bezos, the richest man in the world, taking himself to space. Yes. And then there was talks of the guy who invented Tesla. Elon Musk.
Starting point is 01:05:58 Building a spaceship. Yeah. And then also, I don't know something else. Well today's Space News is about Jeff Bezos and his trip into space. So thank you for that. Thank you for that.
Starting point is 01:06:15 Can you imagine if just before Mike McRoberts is about to do the headlines, Samantha Hayes goes hey don't do the Jeff Bezos story because I've already heard it. Yeah I heard this a while ago, this one No, you haven't heard this This is an update on Jeff Bezos So he's off
Starting point is 01:06:30 We already knew that He's going on the first His is called like Galactic Blue Operation Uranus Yeah, something like that His ship is in the build process And the team has been assembled
Starting point is 01:06:42 He's on the ship But he was auctioning off one seat to be on the spacecraft. That's the story I saw. It's sold. The seat is sold. How much? So to go on the first commercial space flight,
Starting point is 01:06:54 the first time you, a layperson, can pay to go into outer space. Not since Lance Bass from NSYNC went bankrupt trying to buy himself a seat on the NASA spaceship. Has anything been so exciting? The seat has sold for $28 million. I mean, it doesn't seem like all that much considering the very first one.
Starting point is 01:07:20 Doesn't it? $28 million. You don't get to get out. You don't get to walk around out there. You go up. Oh, you just go up. You go up. Oh, you don't even get to get out. No, you're not landing on the moon. Wait, do I have to sit next to Jeff the whole time? Yes, it's a seat next to Bezos.
Starting point is 01:07:35 It's like getting put into first class when you're a commoner, like us. Yeah. Oh, no, wait, you're already in first class. It's nice up there. What's it like for you when us peasants come up and sit in first class? Not good. It'd be horrible.
Starting point is 01:07:49 Not good because it takes longer for my moist towelettes to get to me. $28 million. The buyer has opted to remain anonymous. They don't want to be named, which would be good. They can put their space helmet on and they won't be able to be recognised. Do you reckon it's – what's his name? The guy that just got a divorce? Bill Gates. Do you reckon it's Bill Gates?
Starting point is 01:08:08 Could be Gates. Gatesy could be spending some of that Bachelor money to go into space with Bezos. I can just picture them having a degustation up in space. But you know who it should be? Who? Elon Musk. Elon Musk should buy a seat, buy the other seat,
Starting point is 01:08:20 because he's going into space too. He's racing to get up there. Buy a seat on Bezos' flight and then ruin the experience for him. Just the whole time, just bug him, just be like, Bezos, can I touch your head? Bezos, Bezos.
Starting point is 01:08:31 Why does my Amazon shipping take so long to get here? Can you imagine Bezos' face? How fun is just it saying Bezos? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Bezos. Bezos. I feel like he'd be the...
Starting point is 01:08:41 Do a fart on Bezos' spaceship? $28 million to do a fart on Bezos' spaceship. That's 100% worth it That's what billionaires do That's the sort of things they do for fun So there you go There is your signature
