Starting point is 00:00:00 The ZM Podcast Network us yeah okay um we've got oh screw you grey best intro ever we've got one producer in europe gallivanting around the louvre yes we've got one producer stuck at home with covid19 yep we have um fill-in producer megan who you're already accustomed to hi megan hello and now we've got other fill-in producer meg just to make just to make it even more confusing, we've got the double Meg show. I've got a really important question. Yeah. Where's Ben? He left a while ago, mate.
Starting point is 00:00:52 Right. Yeah, he's not coming back. Probably somewhere with producer Anastasia. Yeah. Where's Anastasia? Wait, let's throw it back. Where's Ellie? Christ on a bike.
Starting point is 00:01:02 Oh, my God. I can't keep up. Hey, I've got something for the podcast. Okay. I've got something. As long as it's not COVID. We cannot afford to lose another team member. It's not COVID related.
Starting point is 00:01:13 Yesterday, I'm going to give you guys a guess each. So I watched a movie. Project X. No, I watched that too. I watched a movie in the sequel to the movie. Back to the Future. No. And I'm going to say in terms of your and my generation,
Starting point is 00:01:35 probably one of the most prominent movies in our generation's history for pop culture references. Okay, so just like a check, 35, 33. Are you including producer Megan, 30 in our generation? Yep. Are you including Ella, Ella. Oh my God. Meg, 21?
Starting point is 00:01:56 23. 23. No, she's not in our generation. But I reckon she would have seen it. Okay. Maybe. So it's definitely, well, there's no sequel to Step Brothers. Anchorman.
Starting point is 00:02:07 Okay, I'll give you another clue. Bring it on. I believe there's three films that got made in the franchise, if not four. Is it? It's not. Ice Age. It's not Anna Kendrick's. Is it Home Alone?
Starting point is 00:02:19 Did you? Pitch Perfect. Pitch Perfect. No, mate. That's way too, like, recent. Also, it's older than Pitch Perfect. Yeah, mate. That's way too recent. So it's older than Pitch Perfect. Yeah, it's older. Way older.
Starting point is 00:02:28 Does it have Will Ferrell in it? No. I reckon it's 10 years before Pitch Perfect. It's not Bring It On and Bring It On 2. No. And it's got at least two sequels. Yes. And it's quotable?
Starting point is 00:02:43 It is one of the like, when I was watching it back I was like, holy shit this movie like shaped and gave us pretty much every pop culture reference. No, not Die Hard. That's too old. Yippee-ki-yay, motherfucker. You've gone too old.
Starting point is 00:03:00 Okay, so it's older than Pitch Perfect and newer than Die Hard. Was it Mean Girls? I mean, that's an iconic movie. It doesn't have a sequel, does it? What clue can I give you? It has... Oh, no. Okay, hold on. What?
Starting point is 00:03:13 Who can I... There's people that as soon as I say them, you'll go, I know who, I know what movie it is. Is it The Matrix? No. Okay, it's a comedy. Ooh. It's very funny.
Starting point is 00:03:24 Well, it's a comedy. I'd hope so. And it hasn't aged well. comedy. Ooh. It doesn't help. It's very funny. Well, it's a comedy. I'd hope so. And it hasn't aged well. Ah. And it's quotable and there's like three of them. Is it American Pie? American Pie. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:34 Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. I watched American Pie and American Pie 2 and holy shit, you do not realise. It has not aged well. It has not aged well at all. But you do not realise what came from that film. When he's filming Nadia, the hot exchange student, on his webcam, so messed up. But it was the beginning of the internet.
Starting point is 00:03:53 We didn't understand. So people are like, this is fine. It's on the internet. I know what came out of that movie. Jennifer Coolidge sleeping with over 200 men. Yeah. We were talking about it last week. And when we were talking about that, because that was a news story last week,
Starting point is 00:04:08 the term MILF came from that movie. She's the original MILF. Are you kidding? No. They invented the term MILF for the film. That came from that film. MILF didn't exist before American Pie. No.
Starting point is 00:04:19 I don't believe so. No, it didn't because there's a scene in American Pie where he goes, she's a MILF. And the guy goes, dude, what's a milf? You're joking. Mom, I'd like to fuck. And then they go, milf, milf, milf, milf, milf. Wow.
Starting point is 00:04:33 Yeah. Hey, Stifler, how's the pale ale? There's so many things, so many quotable things that have come from that movie. This one time at Bandcamp. Tell me if you agree as one of those trilogies because you only count the first three
Starting point is 00:04:47 that it goes one three two in order of how good they were so American Pie the wedding is better than American Pie 2
Starting point is 00:04:55 well I haven't watched the wedding one like in years so I'd have to watch that the wedding's good but number two's not bad Eugene Levy is great oh he's so good
Starting point is 00:05:03 the only downside to Eugene Levy is he was in all of them He was in like American Pie 15 Was he? Yeah he stayed with it But I mean he would have been getting paid Yeah he would have been getting paid decent money But it's interesting because I went to try and find it
Starting point is 00:05:18 I don't know why on Netflix So American Pie the original one is not on any streaming services Is it not? We rented it on Apple TV. Yeah. But American Pie 2 is on Netflix. Yeah, right. Tara Reid?
Starting point is 00:05:32 Yeah. Is Natasha Lyod in that? Yes. She's iconic. Like, she's so good at it. She's the one that is pretty much, like, the cool one. And Tara Reid's friend. She looks exactly the same i've
Starting point is 00:05:45 just googled a photo of her in the movie crazy a yeah she's in the first second i don't know if she's in the third one um anybody ever make love to an apple no no don't answer that as i did no yeah the movie has aged so badly yeah like just i could not even believe. I was like, I can't believe that as a young. Was it 1999? The year I was born, baby. Oh, shit. Like as kids, we watched it and got, you know, a lot of our references or like, you know, how to treat people.
Starting point is 00:06:16 Oh, God. Especially women. Like the way the men talk about women in that film is just disgusting. 1999. So I watched it on DVD. I remember watching it for the very first time and it wasn't in 1999. It was a couple of years after.
Starting point is 00:06:32 And I was having a sleepover at my friend's house and he was like, bro, you'll never believe what my parents have let me rent. American pie. It was iconic, wasn't it? Yeah. It changed pop culture. Yeah. It really did. It was that massive wasn't it It changed Pop culture It really did it was that massive of a movie
Starting point is 00:06:47 I think I probably saw my first boobs in that movie Me too There's so much nudity And we were allowed to watch it unsupervised Yeah I can't believe it But anyway I just thought that was really interesting I'd love to watch it I haven't watched that movie in 15 years
Starting point is 00:07:04 I'm going to listen to the soundtrack on the way home i didn't know there was a fourth one there's more than a fourth one it goes and goes and goes and goes but like in terms of the original cast i think definitely the first three three because it goes american pie american pie to american pie the wedding yeah yeah that's right no the american pie the wedding there's a scene where he shaves his pubes into a towel. Clint, shout out to you. And then he throws it out the window. Maybe that's where I got it.
Starting point is 00:07:30 Yeah. Anyway, we're not rehashing that. We're not bringing that back. Love it. What's the main song from American Pie? What's the... Oh, there's so many iconic 90s songs. Like Michelle Branch is in that song. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:42 Because you're everything. You know, just 90s. Hit us with your throwback movies on the Facebook page. Yeah, what's a really good throwback movie to re-watch? And especially if it hasn't aged well. Yeah. Actually, no. You know what's a great boner to do tomorrow?
Starting point is 00:07:57 What is a movie you've re-watched recently and it hasn't aged well? Yeah. There'll be so many. Harry Potter. Harry Potter? I haven't seen it. Not me. aged well. Yeah. There'll be so many. Harry Potter. Harry Potter? I haven't seen it. Not me. Not you.

Starting point is 00:09:12 All those vaccinations for nothing. You win the satisfaction of a few weeks afterwards feeling like you're immune. Yeah, right. After you recover. Right, okay. No, I don't get that. Only you guys get that. Why?
Starting point is 00:09:24 You get that immunity. I haven't even had it, so when would I feel like that? No, but I'm saying after you get it. Yeah, right. Anyway. It's only a matter of time. Kia kaha, New Zealand. Today on the show, David Koryos is coming in for a chat. You'll know him from Taskmaster.
Starting point is 00:09:37 He's going to give away some tickets to the Great New Zealand Comedy Debate going down this week in Auckland. Plus, we're going to try and get you along to the Comedy Gala for the Best Foods Comedy Festival in Auckland or Wellington today on the show. That's right. If you want those, we'll tell you how you can win some of those tickets. But right now, we've got $50, all thanks to KFC, with Tradie vs. Lady. Bree and Clint.
Starting point is 00:10:00 Bree and Clint. Tradie vs. Lady. All right, Tradie vs. Lady is back and a score update for you. The Tradies still leading on 70 wins for the year. The Ladies on 56. Let's go to our Lady first. She's 27. She's from Hawke's Bay and she eats pickles with peanut butter.
Starting point is 00:10:19 Oh, yeah. Is that good? Would that be good? I don't know. Celery and peanut butter works. Yeah, but pickles? Yeah, well, let's ask her. Hello, Kate.
Starting point is 00:10:28 Kate? Hello. Put down the pickles, Kate. Yeah, I was going to say, is it good? Is it good? Tell us. Yeah, it's good. I love pickles and peanut butter, so it's my fave.
Starting point is 00:10:36 Yeah, but that doesn't mean you should eat them together, Kate. Yeah, is it like that episode of Friends where Joey loves lasagna and trifle, so he puts them together? Not a fan of Friends, so I do apologise for that. Oh, OK. Now all your colours to the past early. You're taking on our tradie today. He's 29 years old.
Starting point is 00:10:52 He lives in Invercargill, dirty south in your mouth, and he has two workmates who have both played and lost Tradieverse Lady. Welcome to the show, Lennon. How's it going? Lennon, could you be third mate lucky, as they say? Third time lucky, yeah. Oh, yeah, I'm not the brains of the group, Lennon. How's it going? Lennon, could you be third mate lucky, as they say? Third time lucky, yeah. Oh, yeah, I've knocked the brains of the group, so probably not.
Starting point is 00:11:09 What's the trade where two of you haven't been able to win? What do you guys do? Roofers. Roofers. All right, well, you are carrying the reputation of all the roofers in New Zealand this afternoon. Lennon, you're not on a roof right now, are you? I'm on a knuckle boom. Okay, good.
Starting point is 00:11:24 I'm just checking. Classic knuckle boom. Okay, Kate, your'm just checking. Ah, classic knuckle boom. Okay. Kate, your buzzer is Lady. Lennon, your buzzer is Tradie. First to three correct answers gets $50 cash from KFC. Good luck to both of you. Here we go, guys.
Starting point is 00:11:36 Question number one. Which cast member from the TV show... Tradie. Yes, Lennon. It'll be Phoebe, so it's Lisa Kudrow. Wow. That is correct. The rest of the question, without even doing it, you already hit the answer. Well, she's not even a Friends fan, so.
Starting point is 00:11:52 Yeah, I know. Yeah, I know, Linda, but you literally read Bree's mind there, okay? That was quite incredible. I didn't even say Friends. No. I didn't even get to that part. The rest of the question was, TV show sitcom Friends was reportedly seen dining at a restaurant in Wellington over the weekend.
Starting point is 00:12:07 Boom shakalaka. It was Lisa Kudrow. One to the tradies. Question number two. The opening of New Zealand's first Costco has been delayed, probably because of COVID. Everything is. Name one thing you can buy from a Costco.
Starting point is 00:12:19 Ready? Yes, Lennon. A hammer? Wow. You can buy anything from Costco. We'll take it. That was a trick question. You can get anything. You can get coffins A hammer? You can buy anything from Costco. We'll take it. That was a trick question. You can get anything.
Starting point is 00:12:27 You can get coffins from Costco. You can. And ham. Two to the tradies. Lennon, you could take it here. Kate, you need this one to stop him. Yep. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:12:36 Question number three. What does the F stand for in FBI? Kate, ladies. Yes, Kate. Bureau. No. Oh, the F, Kate. The F, ladies. Yes, Kate. Bureau. No. Kate. Oh, the F, Kate.
Starting point is 00:12:47 The F, Kate. Yes. Oh, no. Lennon. Bill. Well done. Kate. That was rough, Kate.
Starting point is 00:13:01 Kate. Didn't listen to the question. Hey, Lennon, what a masterclass, mate. You are the smartest roofer in Invercargill. Congratulations. That's not very much, though, is it? Hey, Lennon, go rub it in your two mates' faces. That one, 50 bucks coming your way.
Starting point is 00:13:17 Happy days. Bree and Clint. I feel like I'm amongst my people right now, Clint. There is hundreds of texts on the text machine, all people complaining that they have a crappy birth date. Pack of wengers. What could be so bad about a birth date? Mate, it's because you've got a good birth date,
Starting point is 00:13:37 so you don't know. You don't understand the pain. No, my birthday's hard. Sometimes it's too hot in February. Oh, you poor thing. Sometimes. Did I ever tell you that my last workplace, and this is a legit story, there's a video to prove it,
Starting point is 00:13:51 I came up with this plan because my birthday's on January 3rd, never back at work, so I've never gotten, you know. The workplace birthday. Yeah, like normally my last workplace, everyone got a birthday cake. So I'd never got any free cake and I was like, stuff this. I told my producer to start telling people that it was my birthday on February 3rd, a month later, when everyone's back at work. And they threw me a full birthday. Can I just say, the goals you have for your life are very achievable.
Starting point is 00:14:21 And that's why I set myself up for success. If the thing that would make you happy is a shitty cake from work. It made me so happy. We can do that for you. Yeah. We can literally do that. No, I think it's because you always see everyone else, and if you've never had it, you're like, oh,
Starting point is 00:14:35 I wonder what that feels like. Anyway, we're asking you guys this afternoon, tell us about your crappy birth date. Josh is here. Hi, Josh. Hi, Josh. Hey, guys. How's it going?
Starting point is 00:14:44 Good. Thank you, mate. Tell us, Josh, when is it. Hi, Josh. Hi, Josh. Hey, guys. How's it going? Good. Thank you, mate. Tell us, Josh, when is it? It's actually two days before yours. No way. I got January the 1st. New Year's Day. Yeah, still pretty crappy, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:14:56 Oh, yeah. Yeah, for pretty much all the same reasons that you said, as well as no one's there. Yeah. Everyone's on holidays and stuff. Yeah, but what about the festivals? Like, there's never been a bigger party for your birthday. You know, like, when the clock goes midnight at Rhythm and Vine,
Starting point is 00:15:12 isn't that a great birthday to have, Josh? I'm not really a big festival person, eh? Oh, yeah, then no, it's a shit birthday. Hey, Josh, I just need to... So, I, yeah, haven't really enjoyed it all that much. I just need to double check with you if you're the same as me. Do you get joint Christmas and birthday presents? Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:30 Oh, it's the worst, isn't it? You're only one week. Just the one big present. Yeah. I'm like, no, I don't care if you get me two little things. You just want them in separate wrapping. I just want them in separate wrapping. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:41 Christy's here. Hi, Christy. Hi, Christy. Hi, guys. How are you? Good. Christy, I can already feel the pain in your voice. Tell me, mate Christy's here. Hi, Christy. Hi, Christy. Hi, guys. How are you? Good. Christy, I can already feel the pain in your voice. Tell me, mate, what's your crappy birth date?
Starting point is 00:15:50 So my birthday is the 30th of May, which always links up to Queen's birthday weekend. No, that's a great birthday. What's wrong with that as a birthday? That's awesome. No, because growing up, every time I wanted to throw a birthday, everyone had gone away for the long weekend, so I'd either have to celebrate it the week before my birthday
Starting point is 00:16:10 or the two weeks after because a week after mine, a week after mine was my sister's birthday. Oh, okay. All right. I kind of get it now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. As an adult, though, that's a bit of a life hack. Hey, Christy, what were your parents up to nine months before that date?
Starting point is 00:16:26 Because there's a lot of babies around that day. That was their special time of the year. Their anniversary. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Let's talk to Moana. Kia ora, Moana. Hi, Moana. Hi.
Starting point is 00:16:38 How are you? Good. Thank you, mate. Tell us, do you have a crappy birth date and why? I have the worst birth date. It's bang on Christmas Day. Oh, bless your heart. You and little baby Jesus.
Starting point is 00:16:50 Oh, you are the people I feel for the most. So it's definitely combined presents when you're growing up. Did your family do something special for you on Christmas Day to distinguish between Christmas and your birthday? No. No? Not even when you were a kid? No.
Starting point is 00:17:08 And I had no friends around either because everyone's on school holidays. Oh, I feel for you so bad. What about now? Do people, now that you're older, do people still give you joint birthday and Christmas presents? No, it's mandatory. They're not allowed.
Starting point is 00:17:23 Good, Moana. You need to start putting these rules in place. She's laid down the law. Finally, Sarah, it's mandatory. They're not allowed. Good, Moana. You need to start putting these rules in place. She's laid down the law. Finally, Sarah, when's your crappy birthday? Hi. It's not actually my birthday. It's my brother's birthday.
Starting point is 00:17:34 Okay. When's he born? Christmas Day. Yeah. The worst. But he actually has the best birthday out of us all. Everyone goes out of their way. He gets extra cakes. He gets extra cakes.
Starting point is 00:17:46 He gets extra presents. He has such a great day. Are you sure, though, Sarah? Because does he still get joint presents? No, he doesn't. No, he gets separate ones. And he always laughs about it and says how he gets, it's way better for him. He's kind of hacked it.
Starting point is 00:17:58 He's made Christmas Day all about him, you know? Oh, absolutely. The best day of the year is now officially his day. He's stolen it. Oh, absolutely. He's the anomaly though. He's usurped baby Jesus. He is the anomaly.
Starting point is 00:18:11 Someone's texted through and they said, John here, my birthday is on 23rd of December and for most of my adolescence and childhood, I would get batteries as my birthday present
Starting point is 00:18:23 and then the actual present or the toy that goes with it on Christmas. Yeah, that's just smart parenting, to be honest. That's a good move. Bree and Clint. Time for the later. From iHeartRadio, this is the latest live from LA with Zee McCarthy. New Zealand is a buzz because apparently there's one of the friends here at the moment.
Starting point is 00:18:42 Lisa Kudrow, Phoebe from Friends, rumoured to be in New Zealand. The New Zealand Herald has confirmed. Yeah, she's here. She's in Wellington. This is so cool. I read this article and was like, what? Yeah. What is she doing here?
Starting point is 00:18:55 What's the rumour? Why is she here? So she had dinner on Cuba Street in Wellington on Friday night. Very cool. She went to Loretta, if you know Wellington. Oh, that place is going to be buzzing. Yes. Absolutely. But why is she here? She's producing the 11th
Starting point is 00:19:10 season of Who Do You Think You Are? Which is a show where it traces celebrities' family histories and often takes them back to where they're from. So why is she in New Zealand? They reckon maybe she's doing a Taika Waititi episode.
Starting point is 00:19:25 Oh, I thought I was going to say thingy. He's doing one about thingy. Well, no, he's from outer space. Oh, that's why it would be so interesting. Yeah, that would, yeah. You know? Yeah. Taika's been spotted in Wellington as well,
Starting point is 00:19:39 and Taika's mum lives in Wellington. Oh, my God, that'll be awesome. That could be a coincidence, by the way. It could be. People are assuming things here. Doesn't sound like a coincidence. She could be here to shoot the new season of Wellington Paranormal.
Starting point is 00:19:52 She could be. She could be here because turns out Mittens, the cat from Wellington, is actually a smelly cat. Yeah, right. Mittens has moved to Auckland now, did you know? Oh, that's right. That was a while ago, wasn't it? Yeah, he's in Auckland now.
Starting point is 00:20:03 Well, maybe someone didn't tell Lisa Kudrow. Yeah, right. Do your research, Lisa. I mean Oh, that's right. That was a while ago, wasn't it? Yeah, he's in Auckland now. Well, maybe someone didn't tell Lisa Kudrow. Yeah, right. Do your research, Lisa. I mean, welcome to the country. Guys, the time has finally come where Apple users and Android users are going to come together
Starting point is 00:20:18 as one. What about Oppo phone users? Yep, I believe so. Do Oppo use USB-C? What about Huawei users? Are they coming in? I think nearly the time is here that everyone will come together as one. World peace. World peace because an Apple analyst has stated that he believes
Starting point is 00:20:39 that AirPod models released in 2023, which is obviously the headphones, are going to be launched with USB-C charging cases. And he also suggests that this means that the iPhone 15, due to be released next year, will come with a USB-C charging point. Praise the Lord. Finally, we can share chargers.
Starting point is 00:21:07 Finally, they can let us all unite. Yeah. Although, I mean, great for me as a Samsung user who's already using USB-C, I imagine it's quite annoying for you who probably has a few iPhone chargers already. Yeah, I mean... Changing charger is bloody annoying. It's the... Do you remember back
Starting point is 00:21:23 in the day, an iPhone, you had those big, long, chunky chargers? Yeah. And all of the... What were those things called? The docking speakers? Yeah, iPod docks. Yeah, they were all with those.
Starting point is 00:21:35 Everything had a dock built into it. Yeah. Yeah. And then all of a sudden, Apple goes, actually, we've thought about it. We're going to change it. Well, it will be useful because, like we said, we can share charges. Because, I mean, the Apple MacBooks have already gone to USB-C.
Starting point is 00:21:53 Yes, the way the world's going. So, I mean, why not just change it all over? I read a thing today where Google are going to put real pressure on Apple to allow everybody to blue message each other. Oh, see, this is big. To get rid of the green bubble text messages. Yeah. Because iPhones can. Obviously, you can group chat all of your mates on the iPhone,
Starting point is 00:22:16 but then as soon as you've got a mate who's got an Android. You're like, oh, bloody Terry. Can someone message Terry separately? You either leave them out of the group chat or you just do what normal people do and, I don't know, use Facebook Messenger or WhatsApp or whatever it is. But you have to do something else, right? So they're saying, look, it's not fair. You're just making people feel bad.
Starting point is 00:22:33 And there's better ways to message now than those green bubbles. We've got to all move to the same kind of texting platform. Fill-in producer Meg was saying to me that because she's a Gen Z-er, she said it's the ultimate red flag if you start messaging someone
Starting point is 00:22:49 and it comes up as green. And it goes green. Is that right, producer Meg? Yeah. So the fact that you're going to be losing a sort of red flag check is pretty disappointing. No, but it's no longer a red flag
Starting point is 00:22:58 because you don't need it because you can now blue message each other. Producer Meg's like, how will we know where these people are? Well, there you go. Global Harmony on the way. Potentially, maybe.
Starting point is 00:23:08 It's all rumoured, I'm sure. Finally. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's about time. The good thing is, too, when they release the Apple USB-C chargers, they'll add like $70 to the price of a normal USB-C charger because it'll be better. You know, and I've always said that the products need to be a bit more expensive.
Starting point is 00:23:27 Bree and Clint. Okay, it's time for a round of... Guess That Voice! Pretty simple game where we play celebrity voices and the first person to guess who that celebrity is gets a point. First to three wins. Producer Claude's down with COVID. So who's in charge? Are you in charge
Starting point is 00:23:50 today, Meg? Can I be in charge? Do you know the answers? Can you be in charge? No, I don't know the answers. Does Producer Megan? Producer Megan, do you know the answers? I don't know anything about this. Sorry, we don't know what we're doing. Well, technically we can kind of run it, can't we?

Starting point is 00:28:13 the biggest story that's making news in Australia at the moment. Right. Have you seen it? The massive one page ad
Starting point is 00:28:23 that someone has taken out in a local newspaper to call out her cheating ex. I have seen this. It's huge. Yeah. Everyone's talking about it. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:32 Right? It's the most unique, like, cheating revenge I've seen. Yeah. So I'll give you the details if you haven't seen it. So on Friday, this all happened. In the newspaper, the readers of the Mackay and Whitsunday Life newspaper, to be exact, the local newspaper, a full page advertisement costing what they are saying between $1,500 to $2,000 was printed on page four from a scorned lover called Jenny.
Starting point is 00:29:04 Okay. Right. So this is what it said, full page in the newspaper. This is the only thing that It's printed on page four from a scorned lover called Jenny. Okay. Right? So this is what it said. Full page in the newspaper. This is the only thing that was on this page. Yeah. It said, Dear Steve, I hope you're happy with her. Now the whole town will know what a filthy cheater you are from Jenny.
Starting point is 00:29:22 P.S. I bought this ad using your credit card. That is good. Savage. That is good. Savage. That is good. And because it's blown up and now all these people are reporting on it, she's got way more than $1,500 worth of coverage out of it. Well, it's not even her money. It's global. She used his card.
Starting point is 00:29:37 Well, great point. Yeah. You know? I mean. That is bang for buck. Can you imagine you sit down on Friday morning and you go, I'll give the paper a flick through, see what's happening. With my new girlfriend.
Starting point is 00:29:49 Babe, don't read this paper. Babe, I'll get you a magazine. Cosmo, do you want a Cosmo? Papers are dead. I don't want to read. We shouldn't read those. No, don't read this one. No, no, no. Do we need to start that fire? You need to get into TikTok. That's what you should be watching TikTok. I've got newspaper to start the fire, babe.
Starting point is 00:30:04 You tell me when. It's gone viral around the world. Everyone is talking about it, and that's why I thought we could do this. I mean, newspaper, great, but pretty expensive. Yeah. To put, you know, a whole ad in the newspaper. Two grand. Two grand, they're saying.
Starting point is 00:30:24 I thought we could give people the opportunity. And I'm quite interested if we ask people the question, what would be your message to your ex? Sure. It doesn't have to be negative. I mean, we'll take the negative ones as well. It can be positive if you like, but if you wanted to put a message out to your ex on national
Starting point is 00:30:45 radio this afternoon, you can do that. Live on our show on 0800 dials at M, you can give a shout out to your ex. And it might be an ex from years ago. It doesn't have to be one. This is a good question. How far back are we going? What's the statute of limitations on a shout out to your ex? There's no limitations.
Starting point is 00:31:02 Really? No. Right. Maybe it's just something you've always wanted to get off your chest. You can text us on 9696 or you can call 0800 DIAL ZM if you'd like. And do a shout out
Starting point is 00:31:13 to your ex. A shout out to your ex. What would you say to your ex given the opportunity? This is a one time deal by the way. We're not doing
Starting point is 00:31:22 weekly shout outs to people's exes. One time only. We're not digging up the past week after week, okay? Or else we'll charge $2,000. Yeah, exactly right. There's money to be made in this. Shout-out to some of the people who have texted some shocking shout-outs to their exes.
Starting point is 00:31:38 And some hectic ones. Not all of them are allowed to be broadcast legally. What about this one? Shout-out to my ex. Instead of spending $1,200 of our money on professional photos for your Bumble profile, maybe getting some therapy would have been a better use of that money. You spend $1,200 on your Bumble photos? Who is getting professional photos done for their Bumble

And when we broke up, changed his relationship, set us to single, and then into a relationship five minutes straight afterwards. You're kidding me. What? What did he think that was going to do? I don't know, but he ended up taking my V-card
Starting point is 00:32:31 and then that's when we broke up. Oh, yeah. Okay, all right, okay. I just imagined that guy going, wait a minute, I'm going to change my status. This will throw her off the scent. And then boom, straight into a relationship. And then boom, straight back.

Six of the country's best comedians are getting ready for the great comedy debate. It is coming to Auckland for one night only this Wednesday at the Kew Theatre.
Starting point is 00:35:18 One of those on the debate team is David Koryos and he joins us in the studio right now. Hi, David. Hello. G'day, David. You're up. With Di Henwood and Lana Walters, you're going against Hayley Sproul, Angela Dravid, and Josh Thompson. And the moot is, love will save us. Are you affirmative or negative? I'm affirmative, baby.
Starting point is 00:35:34 So you believe in love? I believe in love. I believe in nothing but love. Just say that in the middle of your heart. And what do you think is going to be your main tact for the debate? Like, is there any weaknesses in the other team? Like, how are you going to attack it? Oh, how am I going to attack it?
Starting point is 00:35:48 So I've never debated before. Great start. I've masturbated, but I've never debated, right? Okay. So we thought we could test you out this afternoon and make sure you're debate ready. We're going to throw some moots at you and give you 30 seconds to convince us of these moots.
Starting point is 00:36:04 You didn't tell me about this. No, but you're best on the fly. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It needs to be impromptu. So David Koryos, to prepare you for the great comedy debate, your first moot, you need to convince us that Jeremy Wells, host of Taskmaster, is a terrible person. Jeremy Wells is a terrible person. He's so terrible.
Starting point is 00:36:25 He's like, he's almost made me cry. Like, I don't know if you've, like, he didn't let my Christchurch task get any points. And that was terrible. And I went to Christchurch for eight hours. I drove around Christchurch for eight hours taking all those photos to get barely anything out of it. It's terrible. Horrible.
Starting point is 00:36:47 But I'm like... Yeah, time on the clock. That's fine. You've got your point across. Do we believe him? Do we hate Jeremy Wells now? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Don't hate him. Don't hate him. I love him. He's such a good guy. He's such a good guy. He's so handsome and he's so lovely. That, I believe.
Starting point is 00:37:03 You're too good at debating. That part, I believe. Okay, Bree's got your second moot for you. Okay, here we go. Here's your second one. I reckon you're going to nail this. Women shouldn't wear bras. What? Go.
Starting point is 00:37:16 Free the nip. Like, free it for everyone. And, like, let's, like, you know? And how much of a stranglehold around our titties do the bra shops have? Let's get, let's bring those down. My titties, your titties, everyone's titties. Like, just get, oh my God,
Starting point is 00:37:36 I was about to say something horrific, but I can't say, what am I saying? Do you like it? No, I don't. You know what, bros? No, because at the end of the day, when I take it off, it's? No, I don't. You don't like Brie? No, because at the end of the day, when I take it off, it's the best part of my day. You're really conflicted there. You're holding it back.
Starting point is 00:37:51 Yeah. So you like the release? Yes. That's okay. You don't have to believe what you're saying in a debate. You just have to be able to convince other people of it. That's what a debate is. You don't have to believe it, man.
Starting point is 00:38:01 You just need to... Oh, my God. Are you just learning? Mate, this debate is on Wednesday. Oh, no. You just need to... Oh, my God. Are you just learning? Mate, this debate is on Wednesday. Oh, no. This is on Wednesday. Oh, no. We're going to give you one more shot at this, okay?
Starting point is 00:38:10 Okay. Your final moot, and you're on the affirmative of this. You need to convince us right now that New Zealand is not a real country. New Zealand's not a real country. I mean, look at like 50% of the maps that are available. New Zealand's barely on them. Has anyone here ever seen Godzilla from 2001? There was no New Zealand on that map.
Starting point is 00:38:27 There was no New Zealand on Mars attacks. If anything, we're just a figment of the imagination of some Australians. We're just what Australians want to be. We don't exist. We say snags and chookers and chookers. Chookers? Yeah, chookers, bruh.
Starting point is 00:38:50 Chookers, bruh? Do we believe him on the last one? I think it's a tick. Okay. I think it's a tick. I think he's ready to go. Well, if he convinced you, you can see him this Wednesday at the Kew Theatre for the Great New Zealand Comedy Debate.
Starting point is 00:39:02 Brian Clint. I'm looking for someone who works in a call centre to give us a call on 0800-DALZATM right now. Obviously not from your call centre. Clint, they're probably sick of calling people. They get paid to do that. They're over it. No, do you work in like a help desk?
Starting point is 00:39:17 Like, do people call you? Because I've got a terrifying question to ask. Can you guys hear us when we're on hold? What do you mean? So, the AM show have been looking into this after someone from a major bank contacted them and said this. When you call somewhere and you go on hold, if you go on hold straight away,
Starting point is 00:39:43 they can't hear anything. But if someone answers you and then puts you on hold, if you go on hold straight away, they can't hear anything. But if someone answers you and then puts you on hold, says, hey, I'm going to pop you on hold, check with my supervisor, I'll come back to you. Let me just pop you on hold. I'll transfer you to someone who can help you. They can hear you. They can hear you.
Starting point is 00:39:57 No, they can't. And if you're saying awful things about that company or you're having private conversations because you've been on hold for 10 to 15, 20, sometimes 40 minutes. Yeah, sometimes, you know, you go do other things. If you've gone to the toilet while you've been on hold. I've definitely done that. This person is suggesting that on the other end of that line, they can hear you.
Starting point is 00:40:21 That's an invasion of privacy. Surely it's an invasion of privacy. I know some places are like, our calls are recorded and this and that or whatever, but I'm picturing they only record them when they want to. When they're talking. When you're talking. That's the important bit, right?
Starting point is 00:40:36 That's the important bit. So they can check their people are doing the right thing, not just for no reason when you're on hold. We're trying to get in touch with someone who works in a call centre on the phones. If you are one of those, can you please call us now? I know 800 dials at hold. We're trying to get in touch with someone who works in a call centre on the phones. If you are one of those, can you please call us now? I know 800 dials at him.
Starting point is 00:40:49 Can we talk to this person? Is this person available for us to talk to? Wait, we've got to pop them on hold first. Ari, are you there? I am here. How are you going? We're just going to pop you on hold for a second. Sweet, no worries. He can't hear us. He can't hear us, no.
Starting point is 00:41:01 Surely he can't hear us. So we can talk about him because he's on hold. Hey, Ari, we're just kidding. Mate, do you work in a call centre, like a help desk? I did for a couple of years. I work for the police. Oh, interesting. Okay, fascinating.
Starting point is 00:41:13 So if you put us on hold, can you hear what we're saying? Everything. Absolutely everything. Shut the front door. No. Oh, no. Yep. And do you listen or are you off doing other things when you put us on hold?
Starting point is 00:41:29 Sometimes other things, but if it's like a matter of, you know, like you need to listen because something's going on, then we, yeah, we listen. True. Well, look, I understand that for the police. Oh, but the police is different. Yeah, I can understand that. But having worked in a call centre for a long time, and I assume you guys all use similar technology,
Starting point is 00:41:46 do you reckon that all the airlines and the power companies and the telcos and everybody like that that puts us on hold for a long time, can they hear us? Yeah, I worked for an energy company as well after I finished up with the police, and it was exactly the same, man. We can hear everything. Wait.
Starting point is 00:42:01 That is freaking terrifying. Look, Ari, the police, police I think is a different story. Yeah. I think that's different kettle of fish. Do you want to talk to somebody else? Yeah. Thank you, Ari. We appreciate that insight.
Starting point is 00:42:12 Thank you, Ari. Let's just go to Leah. Hi, Leah. G'day, Leah. Oh, hey. G'day. Without revealing your employer, you work in a call centre. Is that right?
Starting point is 00:42:20 I do, yeah. Okay. And what industry? Like what type of business? Logistics, right? Okay. Oh, okay. So like courier. do, yeah. And what industry? What type of business? Logistics, right? Oh, okay. So like courier, delivery, postal, international. You'd get some irate customers
Starting point is 00:42:33 calling you going, where's my stuff? And Leah, can you hear people when you put them on hold? No, we can't actually. So if you hear any talking or any music on the other end, we can't hear you. Okay, okay, okay. That's helpful.
Starting point is 00:42:48 Interesting. Thank you, Leah. Or maybe Leah is, because she's working for me, she's trying to throw us off the set. Yeah, Leah's heard this conversation. She works for Big Telco. She's like, get on the radio. We've got to go one more. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 00:43:00 Tesh. Hi, Tesh. Hi, Tesh. Hi. What industry do you work in, Tish, without naming your business? No, it's all right. I actually work at a hospital. So for a DHB, that's not a DHB anymore.
Starting point is 00:43:12 It's Te Pasu Ora. Okay, and so you would have to put people on hold semi-regularly? Yeah, all the time. So I work basically as reception. And when we put people on hold, we don't hear a single thing. Oh, okay. Thank you, single thing. Oh, okay. Thank you, Tish. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:43:27 So it's not even really exciting to say whatever and we will not hear it. Are you sure about that, Tish? I honestly would swear my life was saved. Okay, okay. I believe I heard my bosses listening. What have we gathered? We've got the medical professionals can't hear us. The freight and logistics can't hear us. The power and the police can hear us.
Starting point is 00:43:48 I'm mainly concerned about internet. Internet? Telcos? Yeah, because I've had a few frustrating conversations trying to hook up my Wi-Fi. Well, let's just try Hayley quickly. Hayley, what industry are you in? So I used to work for an insurance company
Starting point is 00:44:04 and fraud and investigations. Oh, Hayley, what industry are you in? So I used to work for an insurance company and fraud and investigation. Oh, Hayley, tell us. So we had a couple of people, we were investigating them for insurance fraud and listening to the calls while they were on hold, they sort of gave themselves up. Stop it. Wow.
Starting point is 00:44:23 Okay. Hayley. Again, I kind of get it, but at the same time. That's so crazy. Was Hayley the person, were you the person that had to listen to the private conversations? So, yeah, like basically everything on the call as they're making the claim, we would listen to that and the consultant would put them on hold. And then not often, but if they had someone with them,
Starting point is 00:44:50 they'd sort of, yes, they are just, you know, doing this so I can get a new phone or whatever. Mind-blowing. Wow, and that's why everyone should know where that mute button is. The mute button, yeah, yeah. The mute button on your phone It's really good if you need to go to the toilet When you're talking to someone
Starting point is 00:45:07 They say, I'm going to put you on hold You go, very good I'm just going to put you on hold as well Yeah, I'm going to put you on hold too Brie, when it comes to travelling Are you a fastidious travel insurance purchaser? What does fastidious mean? Like, do you buy travel insurance?
Starting point is 00:45:23 Regular, strict travel insurance purchaser? I don't think I'm a strict one. I definitely probably more so buy it than not. Okay, so you'd usually get it. Majority of the time. Do you? Oh my God, every time. I'm terrified of travelling without insurance.
Starting point is 00:45:38 Oh, it depends where I'm going. Okay. And what I'm doing. Okay, where are you going that you don't need insurance? Like if I'm going on a ski trip, I'd definitely get it. Because you'd break a leg? Well, you could. You might need a helicopter off the mountain.
Starting point is 00:45:49 But if I'm going to Fiji, like, for a relaxing resort holiday, I'll think twice about it. Mate, what if you step on a coral reef or something and get an infection and wind up in a Fijian hospital? Mate, I'm a pool girl. I'm just going in the pool. Right. Well, this will scare you into getting insurance, I think.
Starting point is 00:46:08 Okay. A New Zealander who almost died in the States has been stuck with a massive hospital bill. So I'll give you the details first. Her name is Amanda. She experienced shortness of breath. She had to go to hospital while she was in LA. She was just visiting America So she was holidaying
Starting point is 00:46:26 She was there for her cousin's wedding Right Okay They diagnosed her with life-threatening pneumococcal pneumonia Meningococcal? No Or pneumococcal Pneumococcal
Starting point is 00:46:38 I've never even heard of that Pneumococcal pneumonia Pneumonia She had pneumonia She had life-threatening pneumonia They put her on life support. She was in an intensive care unit after experiencing
Starting point is 00:46:49 hyper, oh I should not do medical stuff. She had respiratory failure, blood infections, fluid was filling up her lungs. Oh she was really sick. She was rooted. She was in need of proper medical care. When she woke up and when she got better and she was ready to be released,
Starting point is 00:47:08 because you pay for everything in America, she was handed a bill for $147,595 US dollars. Which, quick translation, that's 230 grand, New Zealand. That makes me feel so sick. And that is, like, not uncommon. This. That makes me feel so sick. And that is like not uncommon. This has happened to me. This happened to you? Well, not that exact story.
Starting point is 00:47:30 Nowhere near as bad. But I lived in the States for a couple of years and I dislocated my shoulder. Right. And needed to get an ambulance. Okay. So someone had called me an ambulance and because they couldn't get my shoulder back in,
Starting point is 00:47:44 it was too badly dislocated. Yeah. The someone had called me an ambulance and because they couldn't get my shoulder back in, it was too badly dislocated. Yeah. The ambulance had to come and get me and then they took me to the hospital and they got it back in. Yeah. And I think I, I can't even remember if I spent the night. I don't think I did, but I was there for however long. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:59 And they treated me. Anyway, do you know how much the bill was? How much? With the ambulance. So an ambulance and then a bit of a consult to get your shoulder back in. And they put it back in. Maybe some pain meds. Some pain meds.
Starting point is 00:48:09 I don't know. How much? Six and a half grand. And it's like, what were you going to do? Because I didn't realise. No, I don't have six and a half grand. I'll just walk it off. You can't.
Starting point is 00:48:21 I didn't realise at the time when someone's like, we need to call an ambulance. If I had known that, I would have said, Cheryl, take me to the bloody hospital in your bloody pinto. Put me in the Honda Civic. Let's go. Jeez. But this person, Sarah, was her name Sarah? Yeah, Sarah. Amanda. Amanda.
Starting point is 00:48:39 Amanda. It's a Monday. Amanda. There's nothing she could do. There's nothing she could do. She almost died. She had to have this treatment. It doesn't say anywhere in this article whether she had insurance or not. But I feel like if she did, that's the sort of thing it covers. Like when you get basic travel insurance,
Starting point is 00:48:55 did you know you're covered for like a million dollars? Yeah. Of whatever happens. Like if you burn down part of your hotel or you end up in a coma, you're covered. There's money there to look after you. But if you don't and this sort of thing happens to you, imagine having to pay off 230 grand.
Starting point is 00:49:12 She's got to give a little page going at the moment. That's raised 20 grand for her. So she obviously didn't have insurance then. She mustn't have. Yeah, if she's, you know. Yeah, she mustn't have. It doesn't say anywhere, but that's horrific. You know one place, this is Bree's life advice.
Starting point is 00:49:26 Yeah. If you are travelling, this is where I always get insurance, no matter what. Yeah. If you're travelling to Bali and you want to, one day when you're there, you're like, let's hire a scooter. It's a great idea. Always get insurance.
Starting point is 00:49:40 Always get insurance. Or don't ride the scooter. But also, in saying that, I've been to Thailand and when you go to rent the scooters, they say to you, you know, that your travel insurance doesn't cover you if you come off a scooter because too many people come off scooters.
Starting point is 00:49:52 Really? Most travel insurance excludes the use of scooters. Well, find the one that doesn't because... Trust me. That's the insurance we want. I want to take some calls from people this afternoon who have been stuck with a really big bill while they were overseas. Could be for medical, could be for like car crash, could be for...
Starting point is 00:50:11 What about if you, you know, had a few lemonades on a night out and you go, I'll treat the whole bar to a round of shots, boys. Maybe you ordered a couple of bottles of vodka at a bar in Las Vegas. You ate the bombs for everyone. 0800 dials at M where you can text them in to us on 9696. We want to hear your really big bills that you got while you were overseas. By the way,
Starting point is 00:50:33 someone who works for an insurance company text us because I was saying that scooters aren't covered in like Bali and Thailand on your insurance. You can pay for special scooter cover on your policy. I was thinking that because I definitely have been covered for it before.
Starting point is 00:50:46 They said it costs stuff all to add it all. Just a little bit extra. Just a little bit extra. And trust me, that is the insurance you want when you are travelling to those places. Amy's here. Hi, Amy. Hi, Amy.
Starting point is 00:50:57 Hiya. Did you get a big bill while you were overseas? I did, actually. Okay, where were you? What happened? So I was living in Shanghai at the time and I had an asthma attack in my apartment, which was on the 23rd floor.
Starting point is 00:51:10 Okay. Ambulance to the hospital was like 300 bucks and then by the time I got to the hospital, because it's a pay-as-you-go system, I think he ended up paying like $1,000 to get treated before I was allowed to sort of leave the hospital. I had to sort of pay up for it. Oh, you have to pay before you leave the hospital?
Starting point is 00:51:29 Yes. What are they going to do if you don't pay? Just take the medicine back out of you? Yes, you pay as you go. Yeah, right. That's terrifying, Amy, you poor thing. I can't even imagine because it'd be so scary already going through something like that in a country
Starting point is 00:51:43 where you don't speak the language. I'm just picturing a nurse standing beside the bed with an Air Force machine. Being like, no, well, we can't give you the drip. We can, but you've got to pay first. Tim's here. Hi, Tim. Hi, Tim. Hey, how you doing?
Starting point is 00:51:57 Good, thanks, Tim. Were you hit with a massive bill overseas? Not me, but actually a close friend of mine is currently in a real situation in Canada. Okay. Why, what's going on? Tell us about it. So she headed over to Canada and then her first week there
Starting point is 00:52:13 has had a huge climbing accident. Oh no. Okay. And has had some pretty extensive injuries. Yeah. To the point where her foot's been amputated and has a huge list of broken bones.
Starting point is 00:52:27 I read this story, Tim. Is this the Kiwi girl and they said she's broken nearly every bone in her body? Yeah. She's an absolute trooper. Yeah, okay. And a Dunner's legend.
Starting point is 00:52:38 A full surf girl. She's an awesome, awesome young lass. But any donations on her Diva Little page would be amazing She does have insurance but it didn't because she's had so many operations
Starting point is 00:52:52 and things, it wasn't fully covered Has she maxed out her insurance? That's how bad her injuries are Yeah, so on her Give A Little page it says they're looking for around a million dollars which is a lot of money, but that's what it's going to cost Wait, it's going to, whoa, jeez.
Starting point is 00:53:06 Okay, give us the name and then we can plug it in to Give A Little and look up the page, Tim. Anna Parsons, is there a name? Yeah. Anna Parsons. And any money we can raise for it would be amazing. Good man, Tim, for getting the message out there.
Starting point is 00:53:19 Get on to Give A Little and if you want to help out Amanda, you can do that. Ivy's here. Hi, Ivy. Hi, Ivy. Hi, how's it going? Okay, you got a big bill while you were to help out Amanda, you can do that. Ivy's here. Hi, Ivy. Hi, Ivy. Hi. How's it going? You got a big bill while you were in India. Is that right?
Starting point is 00:53:30 Yeah, well, I've got the opposite actually. I spent four days in hospital in India with E. coli and all the food, like inpatient care, my medicine and everything, and it was only $99.
Starting point is 00:53:45 What? Are you serious? Wow. Yeah, I was like, this is cheaper than staying in a hotel. Ivy's like, I felt pretty good by day two, but I just thought, you know, traveling is the budget. Absolutely. Travel hack, get some E. coli while you're in India.
Starting point is 00:54:02 Okay, thanks, Ivy. One more from Maddie. Hi, Maddie. Hi there. Hi. What was your bigi while you're in India. Okay, thanks, Ivy. One more from Maddie. Hi, Maddie. Hi there. Hi. What was your big bill while you were overseas? Similar to the last check, I actually caught E. coli on my way over to Japan.
Starting point is 00:54:14 Okay. And I ended up with a hundred grand hospital bill, but luckily I'd got health insurance going over because I was going over to snowboard. A hundred, wait, Maddie, how was it $100,000 and you had E. coli? Because I ended
Starting point is 00:54:30 up heading over and as a child I used to get sick quite easily and so my mum kept telling my uncle that I was fine and he was like, no, she's not. She's fine. And he had to take me to the local GP and they tried giving me medicine and I couldn't keep it down so then they had to take me to the local GP and they tried giving me medicine.
Starting point is 00:54:45 I couldn't keep it down. Then they had to take me back. Oh, my God. Thank God you had the insurance. That is some expensive diarrhea. It was absolutely horrible. Oh, you poor thing. There you go, everybody.
Starting point is 00:55:01 Get your travel insurance before you go. Yes. And as we said. It could save your life and your bank accounts. Pay the extra for the scooter insurance. Bree and Clint. It's time for Birthday Banger. It's my birthday.

Starting point is 01:00:53 What TV show does this? Breaking Bad. Yes. Yeah. Sounds so similar. It's a bit fine. Hang on. I think I've said this on the show before where I was like,
Starting point is 01:01:02 that sounds like the theme song to Breaking Bad. Have we got it? Yeah, here it is. So similar. Jon Bon Jovi needs to sue the creators of Breaking Bad. Nah, I wouldn't sue Heisenberg. He's a bad man. So similar. That's outrageous. Nah, I wouldn't sue Heisenberg. That's outrageous. I'm about to tell you a story that's pretty unbelievable, if you ask me.
Starting point is 01:01:41 It's a medical marvel and it's a story about a woman from India who has given birth in the last couple of weeks. I'm not too sure when. Yeah. But she is one of the oldest women ever to give birth. Okay. So I want to go around the room. Producers, you can play. And Clint, you can have a guess.
Starting point is 01:01:56 How old do we think? Because obviously there's a natural limit to... It was conceived through IVF. Oh, okay. It was an through IVF. Oh, okay. It was an IVF baby. Right, okay. But still, she has carried the baby. Can you still carry a baby, and excuse my lack of knowledge,
Starting point is 01:02:13 can you still carry a baby after you've been through menopause? No, I don't believe so. You can't? No. You can't put a baby in the uterus? I don't believe so. Have you been through menopause? I don't think so.
Starting point is 01:02:23 Right. But actually, I don't know. I'm pretty sure you can. Does menopause just stop the egg production? Yeah, because you're younger. Oh, look, I'm way out of my depth here. Anyway, anyway. I will say the oldest woman to give birth is in her 50s.
Starting point is 01:02:35 That's what I feel is possible. Actually, judging from this story, I'm going to say you can carry a baby. After menopause. Yeah. Right, so she's above menopause age. I changed my guess. I reckon she's in her 60s.
Starting point is 01:02:48 Okay, 60s. I like in 60s. Are you going to narrow that down? She's between 60 and 65. Producers? I'm going to say 62. 62? I'll go a hard 60.
Starting point is 01:02:59 Hard 60. Okay. Shandravati from India is 70 years old. After a successful round of IVF. No, thanks. The new mum and her husband, which they have been married for 54 years. Yeah. He's 75, were finally gifted with a baby.
Starting point is 01:03:23 Yeah. Is this their first child? So it's actually a really sad story. Well, it's happy, but it's sad. There's a lot going on. They started their journey to have a child back in 1968 is when they started trying over five decades ago. And unfortunately, they were unsuccessful.
Starting point is 01:03:43 But she had a round of IVF last year, and she has given birth to a healthy 7-pound, 7-ounce baby. Unbelievable. What a champion. That is crazy. Obviously there's lots of complications around that and age and things like that, but fertility is such a complex conversation and such a horrific journey for a lot of couples
Starting point is 01:04:05 so let's just leave them at that and say congratulations congratulations I'm going to go one better though I'm not keen to become a new parent in my 70s but to them congratulations can you imagine but I looked into this because I was like I wonder what is you know the oldest
Starting point is 01:04:21 so back in 2019 another woman from India was know, the oldest. So back in 2019, another woman from India was named as the oldest person in the world to give birth to twins. Okay. No. And she was. In India again. In India again.
Starting point is 01:04:36 Yeah. And she was 74. Yeah, right. Okay. Isn't that crazy? At 74, I just want to be like slowing down. I want to sit on the couch and, you know, not have much to do. But, hey, I mean, congratulations to them.
Starting point is 01:04:53 Yeah. I mean, it just, I said unbelievable. Yeah. Pretty unbelievable story. Congratulations to them, but no thanks. No thanks. No thanks. Bree and Clint. Do you guys remember a story a few months ago now
Starting point is 01:05:07 about a couple from Ontario, Canada, where they were worried that they potentially could be sisters? Yeah, I do. Remember this story? Yeah, yeah, yeah. It was massive. They've got different mums, right? Yeah, so this is the situation.
Starting point is 01:05:22 One of them's name's Carly and the other one is Mercedes. They've been dating for about two years and they both have never met their dads. And when they started talking, they're obviously from a similar area and then turns out they found out that both of their mums have slept with this same guy. Who's not in the picture, eh?
Starting point is 01:05:45 Who's not in the picture. Right. Mystery dad. So what it came down to is that they were like... We look similar. They look really similar. And they were like, there could be a chance that we could be half sisters.
Starting point is 01:06:00 Shocking. Right? It would be the worst thing to find out. Well, fast forward because they have taken a DNA test. Good. And we have the results. Okay. Right? So
Starting point is 01:06:12 here are the girls. They've posted this to their TikTok. This is them talking about before they've seen the results. Okay. So Carly and I both got an email this morning from 23andme saying that our results are in we haven't opened them yet so that's what we're about to do ready no just quickly just sorry just quickly sorry to be the millennial in the room yeah stop filming all of your important life
Starting point is 01:06:43 moments for tiktok some things can be done in private, you know? Like, this is huge emotional trauma you're about to put yourself through if you find out that you've been humping your sister for the last 12 months. You know? Yeah. Besides the embarrassment, but anyway. Hey, they love to film stuff.
Starting point is 01:07:00 Yeah, I mean, glad they did. I'm keen to hear the results. They love to film it. Who is keen to hear the results of the DNA test? Me. Me. I want to hear it. I feel like I'm on that show Maury Povich.
Starting point is 01:07:08 What's that? Do you remember that show? Yeah. Where they get couples and the woman would usually be like, he's definitely the dad. You need to DNA test him. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And they'd be like, in the case of Meryl and Gary,
Starting point is 01:07:22 he is not the father. Do you remember that? Yes, I know what you're talking about now. Yeah. All right, but let's go is not the father. Do you remember those? Yes, I know what you're talking about now. All right, but let's go back to the sisters. Here are the girls. Like Jerry Springer. Yeah, yeah, very similar. Carly and Mercedes are finally finding out
