It's going to work. I got sucked in there. My fourth video is horse birth. Stop. Oh my gosh, have you watched any, guys? No. No? No, weirdly.

You'll have to find out. It's so fascinating. Send it to us. I will. In a separate chat to the one that we currently use. Yeah, can we use a different chat? The one that we need. The one that I can leave.

Hang on, I'll just go on my reels and find some. They always pop up. I'm going to get out of here. I've got to go and buy some bags of ice and some milk because we're on the third day of having no power at our house. Damn.

You look for a bright side in these situations and the bright side is it could be a lot worse. But one of the other bright sides that my wife, Lucy, came up with today,

she goes, oh my God, we finally get to throw out everything in our fridge. You know how you sometimes do like a mild clean of your fridge and you're like,

oh no, I might need that. Yeah. I might need that half used jar of curry paste from 2019. We're just going to biff it all. Because it's just been ruminating and getting warm in there. You know what though?

It won't take long for you to rebuild up that fridge again with shit that you do not need. Yeah. Did you find anything weird deep in your freezer? Nah, we haven't opened the freezer. We're hoping that that has stayed frozen for three days. Yeah, no, that's what they say. They say like 36 to 48 hours usually.

That's two days. Get this. We have one of Ryan's friends placenta in our freezer. Why? What? She lives on a farm out of Auckland and she gave birth at Auckland Hospital and they gave her the placenta and she couldn't get home

and so she gave it to us to hold on to and we've just never given it back to her. So it's still sitting in our freezer. At what point does that become your placenta? Yeah, I don't know. I don't know what you do with it. I'm speechless. You don't get that confused.

How long has it been in there? People eat them. Well, the kid must be coming up a year now. Oh, don't eat that confused How long has it been in there? People eat them Well the kids The kid must be coming up a year now Oh don't eat that one That's old Frozen though Yeah

Yeah yeah yeah yeah No but you wouldn't eat it after a year Is it well labelled? Yes yes yes Very clear We'll have a steak tonight Oh my gosh side note I worked with some guys who accidentally ate one

that was not labelled well. They went out for the head-wetting beer drinking session. They came home and they had a fry up and they thought it was like lamb or something. And they ate it. You'd never recover. A lot of nutrients. But emotionally scarring.

Sidebar? Sidebar, quickly, if you have to leave. We have a builder at our house doing some builder stuff. And he's like, you're a vegan, eh? And I was like, oh, yeah, lol. And he's like, why? I've got a farm. Tell me.

So I just explained, yadda, yadda, yadda. And he's like, nah, I have my own sheep that I kill. It's so humane. People buy my meat. The guy comes over with a gun and shoots them oh my god and i was like oh you're like i'm i'm you're not convincing me how did he know you were a vegan how did the builder know you were a vegan maybe grandmom told him or something he probably looked at her and was like oh a bit pale

well howdy he saw her lifeless on the floor She's got a 9 deficiency That's you I love that I get my own intro Yeah it's bespoke So special Maddie's here in a brown t-shirt reminiscent of the colour you ended up

last night on Treasure Island. No, this is copper? Clay? Yeah, clay, like a brick colour. Yeah, well that's the colour you wear on... It's a brown. That's the colour you wear on Treasure Island last night after you went in the mud puddle. I still haven't seen the episode because I still don't have any power at my house.

Thanks, Gabriel. But you, covered in mud, looked... Like what, Clint? Well, it was hard because there was art green covered in mud. I know. And someone else was in there really ripped. Yeah.

And covered in mud too. It was me. You looked how I would look covered in mud. Like a drowned rat, but the mud version. You know the worst thing? I lost my bloody shoes in in mud. It was me. You looked how I would look covered in mud. Like a drowned rat but the mud version. You know the worst thing? I lost my bloody shoes in that mud.

Yeah, yeah. Both of them. And then Art Green rummaged around in the mud to find them. Is there anything that man cannot do? God, he's such a hero.

And then he handed you the shoes and you go, yes, I will accept these shoes. Have you seen him? He's been posting because he's up north and when it got really bad in the cyclone

and the winds were getting pretty crazy he was posting videos from his house but he was still outside topless. I thought you were going to say he was doing cyclone burpees.

Filming videos of himself in the middle of a bloody cyclone. There's one more episode of Treasure Island this week by the way. It goes to air tonight at 7.30. There's a keyword in there that you can text to 9696.

If we call you back tomorrow and you've texted in the right keyword, we'll give you $1,000 cash. That easy. That easy. We've got heaps coming up on the show today. Maddie's going to take on What's the Plot, the rom-com edition again before 5 o'clock. Yeah, it's jackpotted to $150 because I could not be beaten yesterday.

No, you could not be beaten. So we'll do that, but we'll kick things off with tradie versus lady. Bree and Clint. It's time for tradie versus lady. Bree and Clint. Tradie versus lady. We managed to pull a team together. Great.

We've got it. We've got a tradie and a lady. Scores are 11-10 in favour of the ladies, and we're playing for 50 bucks cash from KFC. Our lady is from Wellington. She is 40, and she is a photographer. Welcome to the show, Rachel. Hi, Rachel.

Kia ora. What kind of photography do you do? So I mostly do families, maternity, and newborn babies. Have you ever done an actual birthing? I haven't, actually. Would you? No, I haven't. Would you?

Because that's booming at the moment. Probably for a friend, like somebody I knew. Do a soft launch if you're going to do it. Did you know that there's, this is more a Maddie question, I'm sure you're across it, Rachel. Do you know there's a trend now to get a birth videographer? Oh.

It's Miles. Miles, turn that radio down for us, would you? Yeah, yeah, sorry about that. I'm just listening to myself on the radio. Fair enough. This might sound judgmental. Miles is a moustached name to me. It really is, right? Yeah. You have a name that goes with a moustached name to me. It really is, right?

Yeah. You have a name that goes with a moustache. Does that make sense, Miles? That makes absolute sense. Does it curl up at the end? Unfortunately, nah. It just comes down around the side, you know, like the old handlebars. Yeah, handlebar.

You ever cost your workplace a lot of money before? You're a bit of a liability, aren't you? I'm such a liability. I'm clumsy. Yeah, I can see out there on one of those weather crosses you used to do back in the day, dropping the microphone in the ocean or something like that. You've never done that?

We do have some very, very expensive equipment. Like the cameras that our camera operators use out in the field. Yeah. News cameras. Yeah. Worth more than your life. Really? Oh, yeah.

Because they can broadcast those cameras now, can't they? Yes. They just bang a little thing on the back of them. Sim card and somehow it works. Yeah. Don't ask, Cal. Don't ask. Well, this story is for anyone who has cost their workplace a decent amount of them. Sim car, didn't know how it works. Don't ask, Cal. Don't ask. Well, this story is for

anyone who has cost their workplace a decent amount of money. A valet at the Crown Casino in Perth has had a major whoopsie. I know. I always think about this with valets, and by that I mean the people who park the cars. They never look like car

experts. Like the kind of guys you'd trust to drive your car. Yeah. None of them look like they own a Like the kind of guys you'd trust to drive your car? Yeah. None of them look like they own a car worth more than $3,000. Yeah. I mean, I might trust them to drive my car because my car is... Yeah, yeah. Terrible.

The valet's like, I'm not driving that piece of crap. Yeah, exactly. Well, this one is a young guy too. There's a video of it. He was parking the cars when he managed to crash a million dollar Lamborghini into another million dollar Lamborghini. No. Yeah.

It's everyone who deals with cars, it's all of their worst nightmares. Like if you work in a car yard or you park cars or even if you're like in a service station and you have to handle expensive cars. It is the, I mean, it's on the extreme end, but it is a quintessential one job kind of thing. You had one job. You had one job. He literally has one job.

To park the car. I don't know how to drive a Lamborghini. No, I would, but then that's why I wouldn't be a valet. Do Lamborghinis have those parking sensors where you get too close to another one and they're like, it gets faster and faster. Do they have that? I don't know.

Does it have a reversing camera? He said, poor kid, he said that he was trying to press the brake and he pressed the accelerator. I don't know if his foot was too wide or if he got them confused. That's the thing about driving a different car every 10 minutes too.

They're all different. Yeah. I'm nervous. Totally. Anytime I get in a car that I'm not used to. And these newfangled cars, it's not just a classic handbrake situation. They're always hidden somewhere.

You've got to find the little switch. There's a button. Yeah. And a Lamborghini. You've got to push the ejector seat. Both Lamborghinis, the one that he was driving and the one that he drove into, they were owned by the same guy.

Oh, wow. Some Aussie billionaire who was like balling out and had his limited edition Lambos at the casino. So he'll be fine. I don't imagine the kid gets to keep his job, but the billionaire, don't feel bad for him. He'll be fine. Yeah, I think the kid's getting redeployed

to like the housekeeping department. Yeah, yeah, yeah, to where they do the towels. This might be presumptuous, but I feel like if you can afford a Lamborghini and you can afford to pay to have someone else park your Lamborghini. Two. Two. Two Lamborghinis, you can probably afford the repair bill.

Yeah, I think you're okay. Do you reckon? I don't feel sorry for the guy who has two Lamborghinis. In the current cost of living crisis, he's not the guy that we're feeling for, is he? No. I do feel... How's he gonna fix his Lambos when bloody eggs are $11 a carton?

How's he gonna pay for the panel beating on his Lambo? I do feel sorry for that kid though because that is an awful situation to find yourself in. I didn't cost, it wasn't a cost, I didn't waste money or cost the company money but very early on in my career, my first job at TVNZ

was to book the camera crews for the journalists. So a journalist would call me and say, right I've got an interview between 12.30 and 1.30. I'm going to need a cameraman to come and meet me here and film this interview. I got a call from the then political editor at TVNZ saying, first day of Parliament,

we need a camera outside Parliament. Something's happened and we need to get all of the MPs. This is major. Major, and we need to get all the MPs as they come into Parliament and I need to be able to interview them on their way in. Forgot to book it. Oh, you just didn on their way in. Forgot to book it. Oh, you just didn't book the camera.

Forgot to book it. So the political editor just had to paint a picture with his words. He was like, oh, it's crazy, guys. You should have seen it on the television. I wonder if anyone's willing to own up to a big work screw-up that they've caused that maybe had a big price tag associated with it. I'm talking entire vats of milk on the dairy farm. Julie's called up.

Hi, Julie. Hi. Is this you? You caused the big balls up? Well, not as big as a million dollars, but kind of. Kind of? Okay, where did you work? I still work for them.

They've kept me on. Can I say the company? I don't know. Up to you. Claude, can she say the – hang on, we've got to pass this through legal first. Claude, can she say the name of the company? I mean, if you're happy to say it. Okay, yeah, name them.

Go on. Mainstream. So I'm a young truck driver with Mainstream, and I have quite a following on TikTok, and they always ask me if I've hit anything, and I have. In the first year of trucking, I hit probably like between $1,000 to $2,000 with this stuff, like a car was one of them. So you're a truck driver with a track record of hitting stuff. Is that what you're saying? Well, yes, a little bit.

But only in the first year and it didn't even leave the depot. But now I'm a Class 5 driver, so I drive truck and trailer now and they've kept me on. So everything you hit was just inside the depot. You weren't even on the main roads. No, it was in the depot. What's your TikTok

handle? It's actually truckdrivingcheck21 In the roads. No, it was in the depot. What's your TikTok handle? Comsy truck driver. It's actually truckdrivingtick21. Okay. Love it. And they're happy for you to be a truckdriving TikToker? Yes, actually. They found me at 7,000 followers.

I have 61,000 now. They found me at 7,000 and gave me a pay rise and told me to keep going. Wow, good on you. Okay. And you haven't hit anything since, Julie? No, no, I haven't. They have put me through a lot of training. Are you allowed to leave the depot? Yes, yes, definitely.

I go to Auckland and Gisborne now. Oh, well, good to talk to a famous truck driver. Thanks, Julie. Cool. Watch out, by the way, if you're on those roads. I am terrified. I just imagine she's got the camera, she's up and she's driving.

She's like, hey, guys, just wanted to tell you about. Welcome to my channel. The steering wheel is a ring light. And the phone's mounted in the middle of it. And every now and then you just hear what do you got you bloody idiot

she's like hey guys I'm doing my live shortly I can scroll through all the comments doing that doing um

doing the whoa dance while she's driving the truck anyway let's move on. Chris is on the phone lines.

Hey, Chris. Hey, Chris. How's it going? We're good. It's been a long week. We've lost it. It's been a long week for everybody. What's your big work balls up that you want to confess to?

So I dropped a robot that's designed to go in and out of racking to pick up pellets and that's worth $50,000. Oh, you dropped a $50,000 robot. Did it break? Yeah, that was about six, seven metres up. Yeah, that's broken. I feel like the robot should have

been more hardy than that. Like if it's... Yeah, I'm victim blaming the robot. I feel like if it's... Victim blaming. Yeah, victim blaming the robot. I feel like if its job is to go into like heavy environments and things like that, the robot should have been a bit more hardy. Wouldn't you agree, Chris? It definitely was, but the plastic on the inside isn't. Did they make you pay for it?

Yeah, I was going to say. No, no, no. The funny thing is I'd actually quit as well. And then they kind of said, you can just go early. Thanks for coming, Chris. You can take the broken robot on your way out. Someone's texted and said it was a colleague, a teacher at the school that she works at, lost her keys.

It was the master key, though, that opened every classroom door and door in the whole school. They had to replace all of the locks. Ouch. You're not taking that out of a teacher's salary either. No. Finally, Michael's here. G'day, Michael.

Hi, how you doing? We're good. What was your big work balls up? Wasn't me. It was someone I faced to work at Quality Baiters, and they set up the machine wrong in the morning and cut 10,000 loadsaves of Vogel's wrong, they had to be thrown away. No.

What do you mean they cut them wrong? The slice was too thick because there's different settings of thickness of bread. They put it on the wrong one and so they couldn't go out because they were not the right ones for the bag so they had to be thrown away. 10,000 loaves cut wrong. It was 10,000 loaves. Cut, roll.

It was the whole day's worth. Yeah, wow. I'm a Vogel's Very Thin man as well. Really? Yeah, I like my Vogel's Very Thin. I know some people like them thick. They probably would have found a home for those 10,000s. I'm Vogel's Toast.

Yeah, right? Nah, get on the Very Thin. That's the way of the future. Did he keep his job, Michael, after that? Yes, he did. Wow. None of these people have been fired. Yeah, he's obviously doing something right.

Makes me feel like we need to take our job less seriously. You know what's the worst that could happen? Just get by on charm, Clint. Bree and Clint. It's time for the latest. From iHeartRadio, this is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy. Dean's here. Idris Elba has come out and commented once and for all

on whether he will be the next James Bond Dean. I know, this is so crazy. It's like the story that just never ends. He has finally shared this. He said, I'm not going to be that guy. I'm not going to be that guy. He is very focused on another role that he's obviously thrown himself into, playing Detective John Luther,

not James Bond. Now, I feel like Hollywood and the world has hyped up this role so much that whoever gets the role, it's almost like it's going to be a disappointment or something. I don't know who could get it that will leave us all... Yeah, that's amazing. So many people have been thrown in the ring for this one.

I don't know, but one person it will not be is Idris Elba. Another person who won't be is me. I know. I know. Disappointed. I can hear shocks all over New Zealand. But it won't be me. I can't.

Is the world ready for a Los Angeles-based, super ripped, super tanned gay Bond? I don't know if we are, Dean. I don't know if the world is ready for that. We're diverse, but we're not that diverse. You're so right. It's a bit of a poison chalice now because the Bond role has been built up so much that it has to go to an underdog.

It has to go to somebody no one's ever heard of. I've also heard of literally like 50 names be bandied about over the last couple of years. Yeah, Henry Cavill. Everyone but Ben Affleck, to be honest. Which means they'll probably give it to Ben Affleck. It's only a matter of time. That is the latest live out of Los Angeles

with our Hollywood correspondent, Dean McCarthy. Brian Clint. It will come as no surprise to anyone, especially you, Clint, that I love reality television. It's not a surprise to me at all. And the trashier, the better. Off-air, this bit didn't go to air yesterday, but off-air, Maddie was having like a full DNM And the trashier the better. Off air, this bit didn't go to air yesterday,

but off air, Maddie was having like a full DNM with Dean McCarthy, a Hollywood guy yesterday, about whether Lisa Vanderpump would be returning to the new season of Real Housewives of Minnesota or whatever it is. Beverly Hills, thank you very much. I don't know. I don't know. But Maddie's watching them all.

All of them. All of them. And the latest one that has got me hooked, God, every, I swear, every time I say, I'm not going to do it. I'm not going to do it. I'm going to watch CNN instead. And then, like clockwork, I get hooked in.

And this time it is to The Bachelor, the US Bachelor, season 27. Is it? This is not the one where there's three Bachelors, is it? No, that's the Australian version. Because Bree was telling me about that. She said on the new season of The Bachelor, there's three Bachelors.

No, this is the American version, just one Bachelor. His name is Zach. He is the most vanilla man you have ever met. Have they been getting more and more vanilla? Yes. But I read something really recently that said, like a producer on one of these shows had

said, the guy isn't the guy's irrelevant in a way. Right. Like the guy is just the crux to get the drama from the girls. Isn't that interesting? So it doesn't matter who the guy is. So you don't they don't need you to watch it and go, oh my God, I want to is. So you don't they don't need you to watch it and go

oh my god I want to end up with that guy. No. They want you to watch it and go this bitch is crazy. Right. Okay that makes so much more sense. So it's almost like the more vanilla the better because you don't want to watch the show. It leaves room for the girls. Exactly. Yeah. Anyway I've gotten

so hooked into it and I said to my husband Ryan I said are we going to watch Is this going to be a together show Or just an individual show You know you've got your shows that you watch as a couple And then you've got your shows you watch alone Totally

You have to have those Absolutely You've got to have something to watch when they're out Yeah Because you can't skip ahead in the episode you're watching together So you have to have this thing that's just yours I get that So I said do you want this to be a to us thing Or just a me thing And he was like Because you can't skip ahead in the episode you're watching together. So you have to have this thing that's just yours. I get that.

So I said, do you want this to be a to us thing or just a me thing? And he was like, just a you thing. Yeah. I don't need the Bachelor season 27. I don't want to watch Zack. I'm not interested. So I said, that's fine. It's fine.

I'll watch it on my own. But you know, as is sometimes the case, even if it's a you show, there'll be crossover where they're in the lounge at the same time as you. Then I go, I've got some work to do, put your show on. Yes. But I'm not watching. I'm not watching. I'm not watching. Just background to me.

Exactly. Anyway, I found myself actually a little bit distracted the other day watching The Bachelor. I had it on and I was doing other things. I was doing some work. And so I wasn't really paying attention to what was happening. And then all of a sudden, I heard this. And I looked to my left. And on the couch, my husband was gobsmacked. And I was like, what? And he goes, did you see what Mackenzie just did? And I went, no, I'm busy.

And he went, you will not believe it. She did this and then Sabrina did this and then they went back and they fought about this and Zach said this and he filled me in on an entire plot line that I'd missed from the show because I was so distracted and he was heavily invested. So do you think he's been watching episodes of The Bachelor behind your back?

He very well might have because he was so up to the play with every single character. That would piss you off because you're The Bachelor guy. It's my thing. It's your thing. It's my thing and you said specifically you didn't want it to be your thing. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And now you're more invested than I am and you know more about it than I do. But I mean that's marriage.

You're just rubbing off on each other. You need to bring up some like horse thing. Yes. I'm trying to think of what kind of TV shows Ryan watches and be like, oh my God, check out the main on Isabel. Exactly. See how he feels about it. Look at him gallop.

He'd probably go, finally you're taking an interest in one of my passions. I want to talk about this this afternoon because I reckon this happens more than people realise. When did your partner steal your thunder and get more into your thing than you? I love it. Was it a sport? Did you start playing golf together?

We talked to a couple one time who, when they got together, he was a big boy racer. Now, she's a drifter and she has the drift car. He doesn't even have a car. It's hers and he works on her drift car. Amazing. Which is incredible, right? Have you done it by osmosis, just from being with that person and slowly but surely picking up little bits?

Or have you gone, nah, screw you. If you love golf, I'm going to become the best golfer in our relationship. And I'm going to kick your ass. Brian Clint. Someone texted us and said, my boyfriend would never take care of his skin. Now he bloody cleanses and moisturises daily. And he does a weekly facial with me.

I can't tell if you're happy about that or if you're like, stop jacking my style. Probably because he steals all their stuff. Someone said my fiance who never had anything to do with rugby has now moved to New Zealand with me and knows more about the All Blacks and Super Rugby than I do.

Well, they're just taking an interest, right? Someone else is on the same page as me. I was obsessed with Below Deck, the reality TV show. My boyfriend swore he would never be obsessed. And I would come in for lunch, and there he would be two episodes deep. Couldn't keep him away. Are you a Below Decker as well?

I have watched a couple of episodes. It hasn't hooked me the way other shows have. Really? Yeah. What is the difference between that and the Desperate Housewives of Alabama? Not that I don't like it, I just haven't found the time to watch it.

Yeah, right. You've got to let some things go and Below Deck is it for me. Okay. We've got some people who have called up. We're going to talk to Anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hi there.

How's it going? Not too bad. Did someone steal your thing or did you steal someone else's thing? I definitely stole someone else's thing What was it Water skiing So when I met my wife Her and her family had been water skiing for years

She started water skiing when she was like 5 years old And then kind of introduced me to the family Introduced me to the sport Getting out on the water, and now it's, I wouldn't say it's completely my thing, obviously the family will do it, but I'm definitely the one who wants to be out there as much as possible.

You're a water ski obsessed. That'd be really annoying for her because I imagine she recruited a partner who didn't like water skiing intentionally, so she had someone to drive the boat. Exactly. She's like, you're meant to be boat boy. I don't want to tow you.

Spot me, damn it. This dynamic works. Thank you for that. We appreciate it. Someone said, I've been obsessed with Love Island for ages and my girlfriend used to rip me for it. Now she's completely Love Island obsessed. Yeah.

I have to admit, I was the same. I would say to Lucy, why are you watching this garbage? Why are you watching this? You've got an hour every night for Love Island and then by the end I was like if Ekinsu and Davide do not end up together, there is something wrong. I will riot. Something

wrong with the world. Pete's called in. Hey Pete. Good, how are you? Not bad mate. What's the thing that you stole or that someone stole off you? Oh, so my wife and I have been together for, I don't know, a few and a half years now, I suppose. And she never used to enjoy oysters or any sort of seafood, for that matter, actually.

And now she loves them. I've got to share with her. Oh. The issue in your relationship, Pete, is that you have to halve your bluff oysters with your wife, is that it? Too right, yeah, that's the one. So in the past, you could get away with a dozen bluff oysters.

Do you order two dozen now, or do you have six each? No, bloody oats, we get a couple of them. Yeah, she can buy her own, right, Pete? Yeah, that's right, yeah, that's your own. All right, we appreciate it. My husband's mum, when they were growing up, told all the kids that they were allergic to deep fried scallops from the fish and chip shop. Yeah.

Because she wanted to eat them all for herself. That's genius. And it took until Ryan was about 14 before he realised he wasn't bloody allergic to them. He loved deep fried scallops. He loved deep fried scallops. He loved deep fried scallops. And now as an adult, he has deep fried scallops every night of the week. While watching The Bachelor.

Bree and Clint. Time for another round of What's the Plot? It's the rom-com edition today. Once upon a time, there was a Matty. He was smart. Actually, yeah. Talented. For sure. Athlet was smart. Actually, yeah. Talented. For sure. Athletic.

A little. But picking a movie title based on just the plotline, that's what he's attempting today. Bree and Clint's What's the Plot? The Runcom Edition. With Matty McLean. I've been watching Treasure Island. You're athletic AF. I'm so sporty. I say the way you pushed that bar've been watching Treasure Island. You're athletic AF. I'm so sporty.

I say the way you pushed that bar with Dame Susan Devoy. You dug deep, baby. Today you'll be taking on Reece, playing for $150 cash. Hi, Reece. Hey, how you doing? We're good. As a 23-year-old Hamiltonian,

what's your rom-com knowledge like? I mean, not too bad. I guess I get roped into a little bit from the partner, but it's not too bad at all. Yeah, right. I don't mean any disrespect, but I feel like Claudia might have picked an easy beat for Maddie today. Well, let's see. You never know.

Is Maddie paying you? You've got to root for the underdog, you know? Yeah, I'm rooting for Rhys, absolutely. I want Rhys to take this out. Rhys, how this works is I'll read out plotlines to popular rom-coms. If you think you know what it is, don't wait for me to finish that plotline. Buzz in with your name, have a guess. If you get it right,

you get the point, and if you get too right before Maddy does, you'll take home the cash, okay? Awesome, sounds like a plan. Good luck, Rhys. Good luck to both of you. Here comes your first romcom Viola Is in a real jam Matty

Matty She's the man Damn I mean Viola's not a Not a Common name in a rom-com. No.

But still, to have the recall. That is what gave it away, was the name. Amanda Bynes? Yeah. Have you seen it, Rhys? Yeah, I have seen it. It's actually a really good movie. You're right, Rhys.

Isn't it? Isn't it? Okay, I might have underestimated Rhys' rom-com knowledge, but he's got to get a point on the board, and he's got to do it quickly. You have to get this one, okay, Rhys? Yeah. Here it comes, rom-com number two.

Cal is living the American dream. He's got a good job, a beautiful house, great children, and a beautiful wife. Her name's Emily. Cal's seemingly perfect life unravels, however. Mehdi. Mehdi.

Crazy stupid love. Yes. No. Sorry, Rhys. I am very good. That you are. Yeah. We're going to send you away

with 50 KFC chicken dollars As a consolation prize Reece thanks for playing The romcom edition Of What's the Plot Awesome Thank you guys so much All good

We're going to play again Tomorrow at the same time We've got to get some Kind of romcom expert On here who can beat you Beat me Surely Surely there's a

Chink in your armour somewhere That she's the man one Was unbelievable It's been three years Of shortages of stuff because of COVID and supply routes, supply chain. There you go. It's been three years of route shortages. Those bloody ships. Food shortages, delays with products getting into the country, prices of things going up.

Well, get ready for more because Cyclone Gabriel is about to mess with everything as well. Oh, I didn't even think of that. Yeah. And this might seem quite superficial while people are still battling floodwaters. And you've got like orchard workers swimming through floodwaters, hanging on to apple trees to get out. But that's the reason that everything is going to get messed up. The orchards where those guys are working, completely underwater. You know?

Places that have factories and factory workers, they're going to have to try and recover. So they've put out a list of things in the interim that are going to be bloody hard to come by. Right. So it's not just going to be the egg shelves that are empty? No. No. Is the egg thing still not sorted?

No. Really? Yeah, I went the other day and there was maybe like five cartons of eggs. I got one, but it was very limited. Right. Okay. Well, Commerce and Consumer Affairs Minister Duncan Webb, aka Commissioner Buzzkill,

has spoken to supermarkets about the potential problems ahead. Here's the deal. Here's what's going to be affected in the wake of Cyclone Gabriel. Salad packs. You know, like the bags of spinach bags. Affected. It doesn't take much to wash that stuff out.

Broccoli. Affected. That'll be gutting for vegan producer Ella. That's the core of her diet. We went to the pub the other day and she ordered broccoli as her main meal. As her main, yeah. Affected. That'll be gutting for vegan producer Ella. That's the core of her diet. We went to the pub the other day and she ordered broccoli as her main meal. As her main, yeah. We were talking about whether they could get air fryers today. She goes, could I cook broccoli in it?

Oh, no. Roasted broccoli. Put some garlic and butter. It's good. Look, I am with you. Broccoli's yum. It is good. It is yum.

This is sad. It's just all you eat is the thing. Anyway, affected. You're either going to have. It is good. It is young. This is sad. It's just all you eat is the thing. Anyway, affected. You're either going to have to go non-vegan or starve. Baked goods. Affected. I don't know how that's affected. I don't know what the deal is with that, but certain

baked goods. It must mean like breads. Like pastries and breads and stuff. I thought those were baked in the supermarkets. A lot of them. Bottled water. Sold out, so affected. Because a lot of it is going to get redirected to where it's needed, to places with drinking water issues. And also bananas, weirdly.

He said there was a boat full of bananas on its way to New Zealand, because we don't grow them, and because of the cyclone it couldn't get in, so they had to turn the boat around and send it back. It's a waste of bananas. So we've missed our shipment, and we're going to have to wait for the next one. I don't understand how bananas can keep on a ship

all the way from Ecuador, and yet I put them in my fruit bowl, and they last two and a half days. Put them next to an avocado, they last for one day. I don't understand how that works. They also said New Zealand Post has halted its mail and parcel services in a lot of regions, so your online shopping order will get to you. It's just going to take a few more days than usual.

God, I mean, if patience is a virtue, we're going to have to practice a lot of it over the next few weeks. Yeah. All mail and parcel deliveries are suspended in Northland, Coromandel, Whakatane, Gisborne, Hawke's Bay and Taranaki. This thing is a cluster for all kinds of things. Damn. And the ripple effect is going to go on for a little while.

So, yeah, there you go. That's what you can expect. Bree and Clint. Time for a birthday banger. Hey. It's my birthday. It's my birthday. Bree and Clint's Time for a birthday banger. Hey. It's my birthday. It's my birthday. Bree and Clint's birthday banger.

People were bringing up clips of their Super Bowl halftime show, which I didn't realize it was as bad as it was. We watched a clip of it, and it was very, yeah.

Matty's looking at me very confused. 2006 was the year Cadbury put out the television commercial with the gorilla playing drums, and this was the song,

and it put it back to number one all around the world. Yeah, I didn't even think about that. What do you think about Phil Collins in the air tonight as your birthday banger, Cam? Yeah, it's a banger, man. It's a banger. It is a banger. Just an unexpected birthday banger for someone born in 1990.

Okay, wait there. We're going to decide between Jimmy Cliff, the Black Eyed Peas, and Phil Collins. I vote for Phil Collins. I'm voting for Phil Collins as well. Are you? Yeah. Oh, banger. Okay, let's do this thing.

He's happy. Yep. He's good. Here you go. Here's Phil Collins on set him. Brian Clint with Maddie. Brian Clint. We're asking you what's the absurd reason that they gave you for cheating on you and boy, we are getting some good messages on this. So good. We feel for everybody involved in these stories, but some of them are just so out there.

Some of them we can't read as well. My ex cheated on me and said, you awoke this sex monster inside me and I couldn't help myself. So really, it's your fault. Sex monster. My bestie got cheated on and the guy said it didn't count because he didn't.

Oh. Yeah. Does that not count? Apparently, according to this guy. It's more like a him problem. Helena is here. Hi, Helena. Hi, it's Helena.

Helena. Tell us what's the absurd reason you were given for them cheating on you? Well, I kicked him out for a couple of days because we needed a little break and then he cheated on me with his ex-girlfriend. While on the break. What is he, Ross from

Friends? I was going to say, was his excuse we were on a break? Oh, I don't know. I was like, I don't think so. So did he give you a reason? Did he actually give you a reason? Just because I, not really.

Just when I kicked him out. I probably had an excuse at the time. I just can't quite remember it. Okay. All right. Thanks, Helena. We appreciate the call. Someone said my ex's reason for cheating on me was because he wanted to know if he could still get there with other girls.

Apparently, he had to pretend they were me in order to arrive. Oh, my God. They finished the message with, what codswallop? I love that text. Someone else's message said, I got fed. Oh, babe, I just wanted to see if I could cheat and not get caught.

He wanted to cheat the smart way, whatever the hell that means. Like it was some kind of personal challenge. Yeah. A lot of text people were saying, I was drunk. Yeah, that's the classic go-to. He cheated on me.

Oh, no. Okay, no, we're going to stop it there. Right. Yeah, there's a few of those in there. Whatever the reason was, you're better than that, babes. Move on. You're better off without them.

Yeah. Is the moral of the story he ain't worth it every year Forbes releases a list of the highest earning entertainers of the last 12 months

oh right the superstars who have banked the most money not just singers and performers anyone in the

entertainment industry so it could be directors actors anything like that radio hosts radio tiktokers influencers in the entertainment industry. So it could be directors, actors, anything like that. Radio hosts. Radio hosts. TikTokers.

Influencers. You laugh, but man, they are making banks, some of them. Yeah, the list is growing. I could give you 40 guesses and you would never pick number one this year. So it's not like a Taylor Swift? It's not Taylor Swift. It's not Lizzo. It's not Harry Styles.

It's not Beyonce. Oprah? No, it's not Oprah. Let's have Lizzo It's not Harry Styles It's not Beyonce Oprah No it's not Oprah Let's have a few guesses And see if you can get it If you can I'll give you $100 Highest paid entertainer Yeah

Of 2022 Alright who was back Man I'm just trying to think Steven Spielberg No not Steven Spielberg James Cameron The director of Avatar

No he's in the top 10 But he's not number one. Far out. Ben Affleck? When in doubt, default to Ben Affleck. Ben Affleck. No. The highest paid, and this is a bit creepy that we're doing this, the highest paid entertainer of 2022, Phil Collins in Genesis.

So away. Phil Collins and Genesis Like we planned it Half an hour ago This song wins birthday banger And I already had this story Lined up to talk about That is wild That synchronicity baby That is really weird

It's also really weird That Genesis Phil Collins band Are the highest earning Act of 2022. How or what? Is there a reason for it? Yeah, there is.

Did something happen last year? Yeah, yeah. Phil Collins and Genesis. So he's the singer and drummer in Genesis, the band. He also has a solo career with that song. Last year, they sold the rights to their back catalogue for US $300 million. Oh. So that's a cash injection.

And then you go Spotify, royalties, maybe a couple of gigs on top as well. And they come out at number one. In 2022, Phil Collins is the highest earning artist. He beat number 10, Bad Bunny. The US are Bad Bunny obsessed at the moment. He made $88 million last year. He beat Taylor Swift.

She was only number nine. James Cameron was eight. The Rolling Stones are always on this list. They were number seven. Brad Pitt was number six. Wow. Brad Pitt. He had a couple of big movies.

Did he? Yeah, Babylon. That didn't come out last year. Yeah, true. That came out this year. He did that Bullet Train movie. Was that enough to earn... Was it a good movie?

Was that enough to earn him $100 million? I don't know. The creators of The Simpsons are number five. Yeah, they're always making bank... They've got... Did they do a Netflix deal or a Disney deal? Possibly. And they have Book of Mormon, the big Broadway show.

Oh, right. Okay. Trey Parker and Matt Stone. No, they're the ones who have got Book of Mormon. Yes. So they... And they and Matt Stone No they're the ones That have got Book of Mormon Yes So they And they are number four

They're the South Park guys Yeah The South Park guys Yeah I was talking about The Simpsons guys Were number five Oh Simpsons

Simpsons guys number five South Park guys number four Number three was Tyler Perry Right He makes TV shows right And movies And movies Really big in America

People wouldn't be familiar with him here. Number two was Sting. Wow. The second highest earning. Where is Harry? Where is Dwayne the Rock Johnson? Where's anybody current and relevant? I can't hold a candle to Sting, who last year made $210 million.

And then bloody Phil Collins in Genesis. Yeah, the highest earning artist of 2022. And that's why I won birthday banger today. Because we knew. We knew. Instinctively. He is Lily Collins' dad. Yes.

Emily in Paris. Yeah, yeah. Maybe that factored into it. Yeah, maybe. Maybe he represents her. Maybe her money goes into a family trust. The Gen Zers have started listening to Genesis. Cool family, eh?

Very cool. And that's the end of the show. We've got to get out of here. You were saying the Celebrity Treasure Island episode that goes to air tonight has one of the biggest plot twists of all time on it. It is absolutely crazy, and it's not even the moment that people would have seen in the teaser that they released before the season went to air, which is me having a medical emergency.

That happens tonight too. Is that tonight's episode? And that's not even what I'm talking about. There is an even crazier moment than that. You collapsing and fainting was pretty scary to watch, to be honest. Yeah, well, wait. Just wait. You get to see it play out in full and see whether I actually survive.

That is a hell of a hook. Yeah. It's a hell of a tease. If it's not enough, there's a keyword that could win you $1,000 on the show, and we'll give that away tomorrow. That's 7.30 on TVNZ2. You can catch up on demand. Stay safe wherever you are, and we'll catch you guys back tomorrow.

Bye.
