Brie and Clint are on air in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
Kia ora everybody.
Happy Monday. It's Brie and Clint.
G'day guys, happy Monday.
How much tiramisu did you eat over the weekend?
Probably one or two pieces, not heaps.
Is that it?
Yeah.
We took so much tiramisu home.
Well, I'd already eaten the tiramisu that I'd made on the Monday.
Yeah.
So.
Yeah.
I was tiramisu-ed out.
If anyone wants some, text us on 9696.
I've got tiramisu'd
to give away.
I just offloaded half a,
no,
full sistema
to producer Ben.
He's going to take some of it.
Because normally
at Christmas time
you get one piece
because there's so many people
who are trying to get some.
Do you find it keeps you awake
if you have it too late at night?
Nah.
Nah?
No.
Or the sugar
and the coffee in it?
Nah.
Nah, it's good?
Nah.
Yeah, nah, neither.
Neither.
All good over here.
How many times did you listen to the Taylor Swift album on the weekend?
Did you listen to it?
No.
I did.
Did you?
And I realised I'd never actually listened to that album, apart from the singles.
It was the Red album.
Yeah.
Yeah, no, that was one of my favourite albums of his.
Oh, for the really late review of that album.
Yeah.
Pretty good.
Yeah, that's pretty late review of that album. Yeah. Pretty good. Yeah, that's a pretty late review.
Yep.
Very late.
If you're looking to get into Taylor Swift, can I suggest the Red album?
There you go.
No, I'd suggest 1989 if you've never heard Taylor Swift before.
Are you going to start with 1989?
Absolutely.
It's her best album.
Well, I'm a purist.
I listen to the Red album, so.
What do you mean you're a purist?
I like, well, I just, I've always just preferred the Red Album.
You just listened to it like two days ago.
And I prefer it.
We'll play the full 10-minute Taylor Swift, Jake Gyllenhaal takedown this afternoon.
Ross has put it in every show on ZM this week.
He's like, this is a cultural moment.
We must play this song as often as possible.
I'm for it because I think it's a great song. But this is like Ross's, this is cultural moment. We must play this song as often as possible. I'm for it because I think it's a great song,
but this is like Ross's.
This is his moment.
Sometimes I feel like, you know,
Ross Boss could be influencing the music that we play on the show,
and today will be one of those days.
As New Zealand's leading Taylor Swift fan,
is he abusing his powers?
Yeah, I mean, you know, the Swifties won't think so.
Hell no. No, they'll be loving it. the Swifties won't think so. Hell no.
They'll be loving it. Kick the show off today with Trady Burch Lady. If you'd like to win $50
cash, why don't you give us a call
now on 0800DIALZM.
You might be able to pick up that $50 cash
and also get a win for
your team, the ladies
trailing. So where are my ladies at?
We need some gun players for this
afternoon. We need to get back into this game.
We'll play after Lil Nas X on ZM.

She's from Tarmac in Makoto and she
bloody loves baking. Welcome to the show
Annie. G'day Annie.
Hi. What's your go-to
baking item?
Probably a good
caramel popcorn.
Yes please.
That's not even something I can think about when I think of baking.
Yeah.
I know, but it's really good.
It's dangerous to make when I'm on my own.
No, popcorn's healthy.
It's just corn.
Yeah, that's true.
Keep going.
It's a veggie.
It's part of your five plus a day.
Caramel one.
They're all super healthy.
Oh, and that salty one.
Yeah, for sure.
Okay, you're taking on our tradie today.

He's from the Tron, and he is great at touch rugby.
Welcome to the show, Trev.
G'day, Trev.
We love a modest player here on Trev vs. Lady.
Yeah, I wouldn't go as far as saying great.
Can you play touch rugby in level three point whatever the Waikato's in at the moment?
No, we can't, unfortunately.
Yeah. We can't do anything. The name moment? No, we can't, unfortunately. Yeah.
I think the name...
We can't do anything.
The name gives it away, doesn't it, Trev?
Touch rugby.
Yeah, that's right.
Yeah, hard to social distance in a game of touch,
although that's what you want as the man with the ball.
Okay, Trev, your buzzer is tradie.
Annie, your buzzer is lady.
First three points, you're getting $50 cash,
thanks to KFC.
Good luck.
Here we go, question number one.
The biggest news in entertainment over
the weekend is that after 13
years, Britney Spears
was released from her conservatorship.
Hashtag free Britney. Who
does Britney have two boys
with?
Trev, I believe
buzzed in there. I'm just taking
a stab. Is it that Kevin
Ferdeline guy? We'll take that Is it that Kevin Ferdeline guy?
We'll take that, yeah.
Kevin Ferdeline is correct.

That's awesome
Great game guys
Very close
I was talking to one of my friends over the weekend and i was asking her
because i haven't talked to her in quite a long time and i was saying you know how's life what's
been happening and uh she's been dating this guy for about i want to say they've been dating for
three or four years it's been a fair while right and um i was like you know how's things with the
boy fee and she's like oh you know it's been things with the boyfie? And she's like, oh, you know, it's been all right,
but things are a bit at the moment.
And I was like, why?
What's going on?
Like, has he cheated?
Has he lied to you?
Has he done something real wrong?
Has he gotten to Fortnite?
Yeah, well.
And prioritised his.
Leave Fortnite out of this.
Prioritise his Fortnite career over his relationship.
We accept all Fortnite players at the Brain Adventure.
No, this has been since they began dating,
but I remember her telling me about he has a severe fear of flying,
like it's really bad.
So much so that he hasn't gotten on a plane,
I don't think since he was a kid.
Yeah.
And she said, you know, with the past couple of years,
it hasn't really been a big deal.
It's going to take a great time to have a fair of flying.
We haven't been able to go anywhere.
She's like, but, you know, in the lead up to Christmas,
I want to go see my family.
I haven't seen them.
We didn't see them last Christmas.
And, you know, it's looking like we will be able to.
And he's not going to be able to come
because he's like, I'm not getting on a plane.
Can they drive to her family?
No.
They're on one side of Australia.
Her family's on the other side.
Unless they got a camper van and it took about two weeks.
I was going to say, how long is a roadie across Australia?
A long time.
You know, and not something,
she doesn't have time off work to be able to do that.
No. Nor does she want to.
No. It's not really her thing.
She's seen Wolf Creek. Yeah.
She's like, not for me.
But she's like, you know, it's becoming like
quite a big thing in our relationship
where, you know, I've tried to get
him help. I've tried to get him to go see
people and, you know, it's just not
something that I think he will ever get over which she she goes, what, which that means we're not
going to be able to, you know, spend Christmas together some years or do things together.
And she's like, it's actually becoming a bit of an issue for me.
They'll have to go on honeymoon. Are they getting married? They have to go on honeymoon
on, um, at the local holiday park.
Well.
I joke, but it does limit your options.
It does. Like you might be able to catch a train somewhere.
Yeah.
But would that be a deal breaker for you?
If my partner didn't want to fly.
It's hard because if it's actually his phobia,
like it's something that he can't help.
Yeah, it's a real issue.
But if you know that it's holding you guys back
from doing things like seeing family
and you don't want to get some help
for it, then I think she will start to resent him for it.
I think she'll go, oh, you're not even trying.
Like if he was trying and he was trying to do things to obviously make it better, then
I'd be more like, okay, well, you know, we're trying to get to the point we want to get
to.
Yeah, or he's like, you fly, I'll drive, I'll go now,
I'll leave now and I'll meet you there at Christmas.
Can you imagine how awful that would be all the time?
What about you producers?
Would that be a game changer for you guys if you were dating someone
who's like –
Yeah, probably would be, yeah.
Because you like to travel quite a lot.
Well, both of your families are in the South Island.
They're elsewhere, so yeah, probably would be, yeah.
It'd be a good thing they can't meet my family.
Maybe it'd be a good thing.
Yeah.
You want to find some,
do you want me to get this guy's,
do you want me to get
this guy's number?
Picture this guys,
on holiday,
double bed,
all to yourself.
Sounds like a bit of drain.
I think what you're looking for,
Anastasia,
as a guy who can't leave
at Auckland,
you need to go with
an ankle bracelet.
You know?
I wouldn't go that far.
Oh, okay. Too far? Right. We're all kind of go with an ankle bracelet. You know? I wouldn't go that far. Oh, okay.
Too far?
Right.
We're all kind of wearing a COVID ankle bracelet at the moment.
Yeah, at the moment.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I want to talk to people this afternoon.
I'd love to hear people's opinion on that situation.
If you want to text us on 9696, we'll read out a few of those.
But I want to hear from people who have never been on a plane before.
Oh, yeah.
And how old are you?
Like, I don't want you to call if you're, like, seven
because, I mean, that's pretty standard.
But have you never been on a plane before and, you know,
you're at an age where you probably should have been?
Yeah.
At one point or another?
Mm-hmm.
You can call us 0800DIALZM or you can text us on 9696.
Have you never been on a plane?
And do you want to know what it's like to go?
Do you want to ask us some questions about it?
It's not that exciting, to be honest.
Oh, what about the free chippies?
Oh, yeah, it's all right.
Don't get free chippies on the ground.
True.
Bree and Clint.
Have you never been on a plane before?
Maybe it's because you've got a phobia of flying.
A friend of mine is having some issues in her relationship
because her partner won't fly anywhere, refuses to get on a plane
ever since he was a kid.
Maybe something happened to him as a kid.
I'm not sure.
Yeah.
Maybe if I'm flying on a plane.
But she said, you know, she wants to go see her family
for Christmas this year and they can only catch a flight.
They can't drive.
So he's just not going to come.
Maybe you haven't been on a plane not because you're scared.
Maybe you're just not motivated to go anywhere.
Maybe you're happy where you are and you're like,
well, what's so good to see out there?
To be honest, if I could, I'd rather not get on planes as much as what I do.
You're a bit scared of planes.
I used to have a serious phobia of flying,
and I think I was on a flight from Philadelphia in America
flying back to LA one time.
Yeah.
And we had to drop really, really low and the mask came out of the roof.
Oh, yeah.
And they didn't really tell us anything of what was going on.
It was fine.
Did you put it on?
Absolutely.
Yeah, right.
Don't you watch the safety video?
I put it on straight away.
Pull down on the mask and the air will flow freely.
And did it?
Yeah, it did.
Yeah, good.
Well, good to know that it works.
Anyway, ever since then, I've been not the biggest fan.
David's here.
David, you've never been on a plane?
No, no, I've never had a chance to go on a plane.
What do you mean you've never had a chance, David?
Oh, busy working and that.
I never really wanted to go overseas or do, yeah.
How old are you, David?
43.
And where do you live?
Te Amuru.
Te Amuru, okay.
And what do you do for work, Dave?
I'm a bigger driver.
Oh, yeah, nice.
You'd be working hard.
Have you been to the South Island?
Yes, I drove down there once.
Just went on the ferry.
Yeah.
You're not tempted to see what's in Australia?
Like, you don't want to go to the Gold Coast?
Yeah, I've always been keen, but the money and all that,
I just never had a chance.
David, should we shout you your first flight?
Oh, that'd be brilliant.
Once COVID's finished.
Where do you want to go?
Gold Coast.
Gold Coast.
All right, David, you got my word.
Once all this COVID BS is finished, you call us back on our show
and we'll try and organise something, all right?
Oh, yeah, awesome.
You don't mind what airline you go on, eh?
No, no, no.
We'll take him.
That's a great plan.
Once all this is done, David, you, me, Clint, the producers,
we're going to the Gold Coast, baby.
Me.
God, now you're going to have to give all these people a flight.
Hi, Maxine.
Hi, Maxine.
Hi.
Maybe they don't want to fly.
What about you, Maxine?
Why haven't you been?
Is it you that hasn't been on a plane?
Yeah, no, I'm 40 and I have not been on a plane.
How come?
I just can't.
My dad was a travel agent, so he had our wind everywhere
and we found it quite annoying and he'd tell us lots of stories.
And my mum, she was moved around a lot when she was young,
lots of different countries.
So they didn't really want to go anywhere.
Where would you go, Maxine, if you could pick?
What would be your first trip?
I think I'd go an easy like Fiji or something for my first trip. Oh yeah, that's
a good way to do it. Fiji's pretty good, Maxine. It's only
three hours away. It's not too far.
Oh, Maxine, you've got to go.
Alright, you call me back after
COVID's finished and I'll see
what I can do, Maxine. You're going to be
broke after all this.
Maxine, what she's not telling you is she's planning on changing
her phone number. Would you take
the Gold Coast as a destination?
My dad actually, the travel agent, did say it was the best place in the whole entire world.
The Gold Coast.
That is such a Kiwi thing to say.
Kiwis love the Gold Coast.
It's pretty good.
It is pretty good.
It's pretty good.
Especially if it's the only place you've ever been.
It is.
You're like, wow, this must be what it's like in Rome.
Service paradise. What a hub. Let's talk to Zoe finally. Zoe, you've never been. Oh, yeah. It is. It's like, you're like, wow, this must be what it's like in Rome. Service paradise.
What a hub. Let's talk to Zoe
finally. Zoe, you've never been on a plane.
No, it's not me. It's my dad.
My dad's nearly 72 and he's
never been on a plane. Are you
serious, Zoe? Yeah, 100%.
We just
never had the desire to. Like, as
kids and stuff, we always just road tripped everywhere.
Different generation, eh?
100%, yeah.
Zoe, when was the first time you went on a plane?
I went on a plane when I was 11 with my mum.
We went to Australia.
Right, right.
Yeah.
Would he go on a plane?
He's 72 now.
If you surprised him on his birthday after COVID with flights to,
I don't know, Australia, for example, would he get on the plane
or do you think it's too much of a thing now? I'm not sure. I'd really have to, like, push for it, I don't know, Australia, for example, would he get on the plane or do you think it's too much of a thing now?
I'm not sure.
I'd really have to like push for it, I think.
He's such a homebody.
Yeah, right, right, right.
Zoe, can you ask him, how does he feel about the Gold Coast?
I will.
He'll probably tell me there's too many people.
Are you?
Hang on a second.
Hang on a second.
We'll take him to a more secluded part.
Hang on a second, Zoe.
Is this, because at first I was like, man, she's being very generous.
Is this like an idea for you to get free flights out of New Zealand's Grand Basin
or something to head over to the Gold Coast?
Well, I'm not an idiot.
I know how to work the system, don't I?
Bree and Clint.
Time for the latest.
From iHeartRadio, this is The Latest. Live from LA with Dean McCarthy.
Dean, this is the biggest story in entertainment in a very long time.
After 13 long, horrific years, Brittany is free.
She is finally free.
We spoke about this on Friday.
The goal was to have her totally freed of this conservatorship
that's been happening for 13 years where they controlled her life, her finances, her personal life, her medical, everything.
And finally, she is free.
So here's what happened, right?
On Friday, hundreds of people were surrounding the Los Angeles courthouse.
It was hilarious.
Gays today.
It was so much fun.
And of course, when the judge read out the verdict that basically it was completely terminated, everyone went crazy.
So what does this mean? Britney Spears is going to have her own team come in? when the judge read out the verdict that basically it was completely terminated. Everyone went crazy.
So what does this mean?
Britney Spears is going to have her own team come in, like financial advisors, accountants, lawyers, things like that,
to control her businesses and all of her finances.
But they will report to her finally.
So unlike the last 13 years where she was at the whim of this conservatorship,
she will be in charge finally of her own life.
It's exciting.
That's huge news. Any word on whether we've managed to get Will.i.am sent
in there as well to be the head of new
music as well? I'm just thinking the
time is right. She's a hot topic. I know
she's been through a lot. She's got some stuff to work out.
But tell me you wouldn't lap up
some new Britney Spears music right about
now. I'd love that.
Here's what I'm predicting. So basically, I think she'll go and get married to Sam Ascari.
I know Donatello Versace is already making the dress.
I think she'll have another baby.
And I think that after it's all settled down,
she'll come back with new music.
Absolutely.
The fans are here for it.
They're so excited.
I think it's a new era of Britney Spears.
It's a real, like, I know it's really hard to kind of comprehend
because she's a pop star and she's famous and this and that,
but she has been actually living, like, a horrible life.
Like, she really has.
If you've watched the documentaries,
if you've seen what this poor woman has gone through,
this is, like, it's a moment where, you know, good actually wins.
And people power too.
We talked about this on Friday.
It's people power.
Yeah, and the power of people that actually made a difference,
you know, in the right direction.
And hopefully, you know, because she is famous and she has all this money
and she has no worries there now with that,
but hopefully it's a move in the right direction for other people
in America
who are caught up in similar situations like this.
Yeah, true.
Because there's such a big injustice in that kind of realm in America.
So hopefully it moves forward in that way too.
On that topic, right, so as you said, like, hopefully it, like,
changes the movement and really creates some change in that everyone
is going through this because there's so many people who are in
conservatorships that are, you know, not being treated well.
So basically Britney Spears' lawyer, right, what he's going to do, he's going to investigate her dad, the former conservators, her former management team, and even her former lawyer.
Probably they're going to get slapped with civil lawsuits.
Brace yourself, guys.
I think Britney Spears is going to sue everyone that was involved for millions of dollars.
So I think that they're going to take it to another level.
I hope she does.
They deserve to be sued because it sets an example
for other people who are trying to do similar things.
There you go.
That is the latest on Britney Spears
live out of Los Angeles with Dean McCarthy.
Want to live this summer free?
The countdown is on.
You can get your two shots for summer now.
Bree and Clint.
I read some interesting stats today
released by Stats New Zealand
in their Household Economic Survey.
Sounds very interesting.
It's my favourite survey.
I subscribe to it.
I'm so interested.
Tell me more, Clint.
Well, the stats are actually quite interesting.
They've revealed that one in
20 adults in New Zealand
identifies as LGBT
plus, which is
a total of 4.2%
of New Zealand's adult
population. I've never seen
a stat quantify the
number of people there are in the
rainbow community in New Zealand, but that
seems low. That seems real low.
Have they been to Pride before?
Have they been to?
I feel like there'd be more than that there.
Have they been to Auckland?
I mean, you include allies in that, I guess.
Yeah, true.
But it just seems very low because, I mean.
One in 20.
One in 20 seems quite low, yeah.
I read a stat that was saying in America,
one in three people from Gen Z over in the States
identify as being a part of that community.
Yes, the number is way different.
Yeah.
Because they talked to Rainbow Youth New Zealand
about that stat, about the one in 20,
and they quoted that American one too.
They said, yeah, that's good, but in the States,
this is the way it's moving.
So it's got to be about people being comfortable to be who they are, right?
It's not like the number of people being born LGBT is growing.
It's about the environment in which people grow up.
It absolutely is.
And I think rainbow youth probably are looking at those stats going,
we've got a lot of work to do here.
Because, yeah, I think it absolutely is that
where people, whether it be that they come out
way later in life or if they feel comfortable enough
to be who they are from a younger age,
the stat is obviously not reflecting, you know,
what the true reality is here in this country.
Yeah.
Is there a deeper issue here?
And I saw how you reacted at the start.
Is it that maybe people aren't that engaged
with Stats New Zealand's Household Economic Survey?
Like, did you fill it out?
Nah, see, I was bored by that title.
I think they need to give it a more glitzy title.
Oh, yeah, can you suggest that?
I don't know, something with Lady Gaga or Cher in it.
Lady Gaga and Cher's Big Gay Survey.
Love that.
Is it a good idea?
I'd be keen.
You got my attention.
Oh, hang on.
We've got news, Justin.
This is just coming through now from Lady Gaga and Cher's Big Gay Survey.
New Zealand?
It's 100%.
Wow!
Bree and Clint. Let's talk weddings for a second and marriage in particular. It's 100%. Wow.
Let's talk weddings for a second and marriage in particular.
A wedding photographer who has done hundreds of weddings has released what they believe are the three signs
that a marriage will not work out.
Yeah, this is quite interesting
because they obviously see a lot of people
on their special day.
Yes.
They see probably warning signs
and then also great things.
But my question is,
are they following up years later going,
hey, it's the photographer from your wedding.
It's got a spreadsheet running.
I just wanted to check.
You guys still together?
Yeah, I don't know.
That's a good question.
Let's go through some of the signs
and see if we agree
because we don't have to agree on these.
But according to a photographer,
these are signs seen on the wedding day
that your marriage is not going to go the distance.
The first indicator is one of the spouses
will take like more than three family photos
without the other spouse.
Like obviously say if the bride is like,
I want to take a photo with my parents
Just me and my parents or me and my family
Yeah
I think that's pretty normal
Is it?
I think so
Like you get one with just your parents, you and your parents
Yep
And then you get one with just you and your family
Yeah
And then like immediate family and then maybe one of you
Just you and the siblings
Maybe one of you and your bigger family.
Yeah.
So that's three.
That's three.
So any more than that where they're like, don't come in my photos,
then that's a red flag.
Oh, if you're telling someone not to come into the photos,
it's a little bit awkward.
I feel like you should get them in all the photos.
Your siblings have got enough photos with you.
They won't have a photo with the new couple on their big day, don't they?
Nah, I'd like a photo with just me and my family.
Yeah, right.
Like, why not?
Yeah, well, no more than three.
Otherwise, you're dooming that marriage.
Here's sign number two.
The second indicator is the bridesmaids or the groomsmen
will avoid talking about the spouse when they're getting ready
or doing toast or anything.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, I get that one because that means there's obviously,
you know, a bit of drama.
They don't like the spouse of the person, maybe. Or you've forgotten the reason for the obviously, you know, a bit of drama. They don't like the spouse of the person maybe.
Or you've forgotten the reason for the occasion, you know.
The reason is you're celebrating the two of you.
That's the topic du jour, you know.
That's what you should be talking about.
Yeah.
So, yeah, okay, that's their thoughts.
And the third one.
And the last indicator is one of the spouses will spend more time
with friends or family at the reception rather than their spouse. Now that one's hard. That's a hard one. Because you've got to work
the room when you've done a wedding. You've got to see everybody and sometimes it's easier to
split up and tackle the room from different ends, you know? I don't think I agree with that one.
Because I think at a wedding, you are kind of like the host. You are the host. And you have
to get around and see everyone and spend a little bit of time with everyone. Hey, thank you so much for coming.
It's so nice to see you.
You want to have a dance?
Okay, let's have a dance.
Oh, let's have a drink and then I'll move on to auntie soon.
Oh, I'm just going to go and see my high school friends.
I know you know them, you've met them,
but you don't really need to go and talk to them.
I'll just go and catch up with them for a bit.
And to be honest, I feel like that is a sign of a good team.
I agree.
Where you're comfortable that you're both working all the different.
You can operate independently.
Yeah. That's the only one I don't agree with. Yeah. There was an extra sign. team. I agree. Where you're comfortable that you're both working all the different... You can operate independently, yeah.
That's the only one I don't agree with.
There was an extra sign
and it was just kind of about
hooking up with bridesmaids or groomsmen.
I thought, oh, that's not accurate. I don't
believe in that one. On the wedding night, but after that
it's fine, isn't it?

Bree and Clint. Let's play Guess That Voice.
The Guess That Voice for your
Monday. You can play along in the car
to see if you recognise these famous
celebrity voices.
Imagine the radio is a mask and you can't see their face.
It's COVID inspired.
I do that all the time.
Yeah.
Like us, like us.
We won't be just playing for fun.
We will be playing for other people for 50 KFC chicken dollars.
Naomi, who are you backing, Bree or me?
I'll go Bree.
Bree, okay, perfect.
You're with me, Naomi.
Bree, oddly enough, I'll be playing for you No, I'm with Naomi
No, I mean Bree
We've covered that
Bree
Hi
Hi
Hi, Bree
Hello
Would you have chosen Bree?
I, no
No, right
Oh, don't lie, Bree
Us Bree's always stick together
Okay, Bree, if I win, you win
But if Bree wins, Naomi wins.
This is not confusing at all.
Producer Anastasia, what's going on?
Hey, guys.
So like every week, it's just a bunch of famous celebrities
and you guys have to guess their voices.
Would you like to hear celebrity number one?
Let's do it.
We were shooting one day out in the...
Tom Hanks?
Well done.
That's a point to you, Brie.
You said it as indeed Tom Hanks.
Navajo Nation, a very historic place.
We were doing a scene where...
Of course it's Tom Hanks.
I watched The Terminal last night.
Maybe his voice is in my mind.
Is that the one where he lives at the airport?
It's about a true...
You know it's a true story based on a true story.
It's really sad. So is Castaway. But a true story based on a true story. It's really sad. So is
Castaway.
But it's not based on a true story.
Good one, Dad.
And with that, we'll go to celebrity
number two. I had you for a second.
I was going to say, yeah, they made a reality show
about that. It's called Celebrity Treasure Island.
It was like my whole
artistic...
Lady Gaga, baby! It was like my whole artistic Oh she got in there
Lady Gaga baby
Journey flashed before my eyes
And I instantly saw myself
She's so New York Italian
It's so New York Italian isn't it
Alright Clint you really need to get a point here
Bree's only got one away from winning
Let me just check in with Bree for a second
Bree are you there?
Hello?
No Bree
Yeah I'm here
I need a pep talk.
You can do it, mate. Not you!
You can do it, mate. It's fine. I don't want your pep talk.
I want Bree's pep talk. You've got this. Bree, tell me something inspiring.
Just believe and you will achieve.
Wow, my Bree's really not backing me up at all.
I'll have to take yours.
Alright, here we go. Number three.
Alright, guys, let's see celebrity number three.
And I just rolled down the hill, you know,
because I live right up near the...
Clint!
Go on.
Is that Stephen Colbert?
No.
That would have been a great guess if it was.
I don't know.
Would you like to hear some more, Bree?
Yeah.
Let's take it from the top, shall we?
Okay.
And I just rolled down the hill,
you know,
because I live right up
near the Magic Castle.
Clint.
Will Ferrell.
That's correct.
Oh, yeah.
I definitely got Stephen Colbert
vibes from that, though.
Yeah.
Stephen Colbert is such a
random person to choose
for this game.
Well, I thought because
he's in the news
because he did the APEC opening
where he did a Kiwi accent.
Did quite a good job of it too, by the way.
That guy loves New Zealand. Alright,
Clint, that's a point for you. Let's see
celebrity number four. I didn't even
say it.
Don't say who you think it is.
Don't say who you think it is. Beyonce.
She's done it. Yes!
Naomi, congratulations.
You just won 50 KFC chicken dollars.
Yay, thank you.
Nice work, Naomi.
And nice work, Brie.
I mean, me.
Yeah, Brie, because Brie won, Brie lost.
Yeah, that's unfortunate.
This has been very confusing, guys.
Brie and Clint.
ZM, Brie and Clint.
There it is. All 10 minutes of Taylor Swift's All Too Well from the re-release of Red, the re-recording that she did of Red that she released over
the weekend. Look, we know you're used to two minute songs from TikTok. Yeah. But it's
a great song. Give it a chance. Someone on the
text machine had a very funny
text. They said,
I had enough time to order my fish
and chips, pick them up and get home
in that entire Taylor Swift song.
Well, good. Good. You haven't
missed anything then. I'll clap that in.
That was very good from you.
Very good. You know, I feel
like it's so interesting hearing that song.
I feel like she literally sings the entire kind of relationship.
She had time to.
She sings about the entire story of that relationship, you know.
I feel like a lot of people could do that and it'd sound pretty good.
Right.
You know what I mean?
If they took you through everything.
You just sing about the different things that happened in
a certain relationship. You're like, you know,
you slept with my best friend.
I found out when she
told me to
my face that hoe.
Are you speaking from experience?
Yeah, it happened to me. You need to write that song.
I asked Ross, because that Taylor Swift song
is supposed to be about Jake Gyllenhaal.
Text Ross, our boss. Well, there's something in there about an age gap, which does kind of...
Ten-year age gap.
Yeah.
And I said to him, can you explain to me what Jake Gyllenhaal did to Taylor Swift?
Because you've got to remember that song is 11 years old or older.
She would have been...
So Taylor Swift is very close to my age.
She sings about turning 21 in the song.
Yeah, she'd be 21, yeah.
Ross responded with,
remembering he's a very emotional,
very invested Taylor Swift fan,
Ross Boss replied with,
I can't sum it up.
It's very intensive.
Have you watched the short film?
Watch the short film.
That's the best summary.
Otherwise, I would need a few hours to explain to you.
Don't have a few hours,
but thank you, Ross Boss.
Was he a bit of an a-hole?
And he was like,
a bit of an a-hole. What he was like, a bit of an a-hole.
What did he do?
When you watch the video, if the video is a literal depiction
of what happened between Taylor Swift and Jake Gyllenhaal.
It kind of looked like to me, because I have heard that song before
and I've just watched that because producer Ben had it up on the screen.
Kind of looks like he gaslighted her a little bit.
But that's what the video suggests.
He kind of drew her in and was like,
you're everything to me.
You're everything.
He's like, cool, we're forever.
And then in front of other people, he's like, oh no.
Don't be so clingy.
Yeah, get away from me.
Can you back off a little bit?
Yeah.
Yuck.
I thought it would be fun to go and have a look
at Jake Gyllenhaal's Instagram account
because I thought maybe he's commented on it.
Maybe he's posted about it.
Maybe he's gone, ha, ha, ha, that was a decade ago.
Sorry, or something.
Oh, no.
He hasn't posted for over three weeks.
He doesn't want to talk about it.
He doesn't, but people who follow Jake Gyllenhaal
and other people want him to talk about it.
Every comment on every one of his recent posts is about this.
It's either about that song or it's lyrics from that song.
Like I clicked it open, the most recent three comments were,
your lovers stay my age.
Oh my God.
Direct quote from the song.
And you kept, and you call me up again just to break me like a promise.
Directly from the song.
These are all just, these.
How horrible.
He obviously, you know, it's 10, 11 years ago
and he probably, he might not have even known
that this was happening and then all of a sudden
this stuff just all comes back up again.
You kept me like a secret, but I kept you like an oath.
In fairness to Jake Gyllenhaal,
he did go through that very tough relationship.
With Taylor Swift?
No, that tough relationship when he was working up in the mountains
and he was looking after the sheep and, you know,
that didn't end all that well.
Oh, with Heath Ledger.
Yeah, was that his name?
My point is, this all went down a decade ago.
Long time.
And Taylor has relitigated it.
She's brought it up again.
And it sounds great.
And people are so here for it.
Oh, it sounds fantastic.
I thought, is this the thing to do?
Do you want to call us up this afternoon
and bring up a relationship from 10 years ago
and have another go?
Relitigate it, put it back on the chopping block
and just go, I've not forgotten that 10 years ago
you dumped me for Angela
with the big boobies and I just want you to know I remember it all too well.
This is so not healthy.
Oh, isn't it?
I don't know.
Well, you like it when Taylor Swift does it, so why can't everyone give it a go?
Why don't you give it a go?
You've got some mixes that you need to rake over the coals a little bit.
No, no, no, that's not fair.
Go on. Go on, get it going. Yeah, but you have to give it a go. You've got some mixes that you need to rake over the coals a little bit. No, no, no. That's not fair. Go on.
Get it going. Yeah, but you have to give
it a go. Oh no, I've made peace with all my
relationships. Oh, have you? That's not what you say off air.
What about that whole
getting a cat by surprise situation?
I'll wait a hundred dials at him.
Do you want to bring up a relationship
from ten years ago and just
tell us that you remember it all
too well. Like you forgive.
You've forgiven them, but you won't forget.
You will never forget.
You can stay anonymous or you can use your name.
It's completely up to you.
If you missed it, we just had 10 minutes before of Taylor Swift's
All Too Well, her Jake Gyllenhaal breakup song.
And no, you didn't miss it.
I mean, they didn't break up recently.
They broke up in like 2010, I mean, they didn't break up recently. They broke up
in like 2010,
I think. Long time ago. Would that
deter you from dating her?
Um, uh,
no.
I love how you answered it like,
I don't have a chance. Well, I was like,
well, my wife would deter me from dating
her, but, um. No, would it? Like, dating
someone like, you know.
I would love to have a hit song written about me.
Are you kidding?
Yeah, you would love that.
That'd be fantastic.
I'd put it on.
People would come around and be like,
have you heard the Me song from Taylor Swift?
What if it was about you gaslighting and being a horrific human being?
I wouldn't do that though.
So all she could write about would be my tiny nipples.
And in that case, I think it'd be a great song.
As if she would break up with you for that.
People have.
I said before, Taylor is bringing up breakups from 10 years ago
and re-releasing them as songs and we're playing it.
So why can't other people bring up relationships from ages ago?
You said no one's going to do that.
That's a silly idea.
And I said, have faith in how petty people are.
People need to move on
i said have faith and we have a caller here with us hello anonymous hi anonymous hi how are you
guys good thanks you want to bring something up from a while ago that still ticks you off
it does seem really petty actually because i'm i'm actually i'm actually keen to hear it now
anonymous why not um we were together for five years,
and he dumped me via text on Valentine's Day.
What an a-hole.
Are you kidding?
It made a really good Tinder story.
What?
We're quite sympathetic.
What?
You made that your Tinder bio?
Not my bio, but it was quite a good talking point
of why you're on Tinder.
How long ago did this happen?
I can hear the pain in your voice, Anonymous,
even though you said that you're literally married and moved on.
Yeah, that's so rough.
They dated for five years and you get dumped by a text message on Valentine's Day.
Yeah, that's the double whammy.
How long ago did this happen?
It was seven years ago, but we were together for five years.
That's a long time.
Anonymous, did you ever get closure on why he did it like that?
No.
That's probably why he's still mad, you know?
Yeah.
Do you talk to your husband about it?
Do you like, I am so mad at this guy?
Yeah, no, he doesn't care.
He's real open about everything, so he doesn't care.
Anonymous, have you ever seen the guy again?
Like in the seven years since this all went down,
have you ever seen him?
No, I haven't seen him.
We were like, because the last year and a half
was long distance in Australia
and he'd flown me over to Australia
and to see him over like Christmas, New Year's.
So the last time I saw him, everything was perfect.
And then, yeah.
He farewelled you at the airport, happy chappies,
only to dump you via text on Valentine's Day.
Oh, no, hang on to this one for life, Anonymous.
Don't you ever let it go.
Anonymous, is he bloody Australian, is he?
No, he's New Zealander, but he's over there now,
so he's one of them.
Yeah, well, they can keep him.
One of you, Bree.
Yeah, stay over there. We don't need you over here in New Zealand. Yeah, well, they can keep him. One of you, Bree. Yeah, stay over there.
We don't need you over here in New Zealand.
There you go, New Zealand.
The statute of limitations on complaining about shitty ex-boyfriends
has been extended by Taylor Swift.
You can now go on about that for at least a decade.
I've got one question, last question for Anonymous.
Do you feel better now?
Oh, yeah.
I feel better. I feel better for you. She's got three now? Yeah. I feel better.
I feel better for you.
She's got three more years of complaining to go yet.
Yeah, call us back.
Three more.
Call us back in another seven years, anonymous.
We'll take the call.
Bree and Clint.
Hey.
It's my birthday.
It's my birthday.
Bree and Clint's Birthday Banger.
All right, here we go.
Birthday Banger for a Monday.
Hopefully this gets you home.
This is where we take three people's birthdays
and we figure out what was the actual number one song on their 16th
and we'll play our favourite one.
Here's Josh.
Hi, Josh.
G'day, Josh.
How are we?
Good, mate.
How was your weekend?
Very, very fun.
Had Friday off, Canterbury anniversary, so it was perfect.
Jealous.
Oh, yeah, you guys got a long weekend
down there, didn't you?
Long weekend.
Yeah.
Did you send it?
Yes, multiple nights.
It was untidy.
Untidy.
I'm so jealous, Josh.
So jealous.
What's your birthday, mate?
17 September, 96.
All right, you were 16 in 2012.
And on the 17th of September, your 16th birthday, this was number one.
Oh, we're just talking about her.
There you go.
That sounds like a bit of you, Joshy.
Mildly disappointing.
Oh, come on, Josh.
He'd rather shake it off.
Yeah, right?
Yeah.
Let's go.
Good with a three-day hangover, wouldn't it?
Okay, wait there, Joshy.
We're going to do another birthday banger for Krista.
Hey, Krista.
G'day, Krista.
G'day.
How's it going?
Good, mate.
How are you?
How was your weekend?
Oh, it was bloody wet.
Oh, I know. Same here for us, mate. How are you? How was your weekend? Oh, it was bloody wet. Oh, I know.
Same here for us, too.
Are you in Auckland?
No, I'm in Palmy in the mighty Manawatu.
Oh, was it wet down there in Palmy, too?
Yeah, it rained all weekend.
Oh, shocker, eh?
Terrible.
Well, let's see if we can brighten it up with your birthday, Banger.
What's your birthday?
10th of May, 1988.
All right, Krista,
you were 16 in 2004
and on the 10th of May in
2004, this had a number one hit.
Oh my god, I forgot all about this song.
D12 and Eminem.
Is this the one where he goes
deep in my bunghole?
Is it that one?
That might be another D12 song.
Right.
Do you like this, Krista?
Yeah, I think it's great.
Yeah.
It's a throwback, that's for sure.
There's that Purple Pills song as well.
Yeah, yeah, that was a pretty good song.
Which they censored as Purple Hills for the radio.
That's right.
Okay, good wait there, Krista.
One more birthday banger for Sam.
G'day, Sam.
Hello, Sam.
Hi, Brianne Clint.
How are you? Good, mate. How One more birthday banger for Sam. G'day, Sam. Hello, Sam. Hi, Bree and Clint. How are you?
Good, mate.
How are you?
Really good, yeah.
I'm calling from the Waikato.
Oh, you're free tomorrow.
I'm so jealous of you.
Do you love it?
Yeah, but honestly, you guys are like, they talk about Auckland on the news.
I'm sitting here and I'm like, what about Waikato?
Yeah, well, you're out.
What about Waikato, man?
Well, they got to you eventually.
You're free, right?
And boom, level two tomorrow.
How good.
We miss Auckland, though.
Yeah, we want you back.
We miss you guys.
Don't you worry about that.
Boy, it sounds like it's getting hectic there, Sam.
What's your birthday?
25th of April, 1990.
All right, Sam, you were 16 in 2006.
And on the 25th of April, this was number one.
Oh, yes.
I played the wrong bat.
Does that make me crazy?
Made me sound like an idiot.
Does that make me crazy?
Yes, I think this song's relevant for lockdown.
Isn't it just? Sam, I think
you're spot on with that.
I think I'm crazy. What a nice
moment between the Waikato
and Aucklanders just then.
Well, us bonding together.
Wasn't that nice? Meet us at the border,
Sam. We'll blow you some kisses through the checkpoints.
So lovely of you.
We miss you guys a lot.
That's an absolute tune for your birthday banger.
I like all of them.
Can we just hear the D12 on the start
of it to see that it is the one that we're thinking of?
Because if it's in consideration, I think
we need to...
I don't know what it is.
I think everybody's old. Yeah, that's the one
I like. I was always, yeah, he's like
drop the mic. Yeah. That's the one you're thinking of. Should we go with that? Is that the one for a birthday banger? Yeah, that's the one I like. I was always, yeah, he's like, drop the mic.
Yeah.
Yeah, that's the one you're thinking of.
Should we go with that?
Is that the winner of birthday banger?
Yeah, I quite like that.
Hey, Krista, congratulations.
You won.
Oh, no way.
There we go.
Your birthday banger is the greatest birthday banger today.
And here you go.
This is D12 on ZM with Brian Clint.
I think everybody's old.
Jealous and shit.
Because I'm like the lead singer of the band. Brian Clint. I think everybody's all jealous and shit because I'm like the lead singer of the band.
Brian Clint.
Look, something that some people really, really struggle with and I feel like it's pretty common
is remembering people's names.
Oh my God, yes.
You're a shocker for this one.
I'm a shocker.
Terrible for it.
And I'm not the best.
And you know what I think makes it worse
is the nervous energy I generate knowing that I'm not going best. And you know what I think makes it worse is the nervous energy I generate
knowing that I'm not going to remember their names.
It's a horrible place to be.
It makes it worse.
Yeah.
And we meet a lot of people in our job, and I'm sure, you know,
after we get out of this lockdown thing,
you'll have to start interacting with people and meeting some new people.
Oh, the number of names I've forgotten in this lockdown.
It's going to be shocking.
Anyway, I read this article, which I thought,
this might be helpful for people.
And it's a bunch of experts, memory experts,
that say what you should do to help you remember people's names.
Please don't make it say their name three times in a row because it doesn't work.
No, it's not that.
When you meet someone, you should go Brie Thomasel, Brie Thomasel, Brie Thomasel.
No, that doesn't work.
So what they say is that when you meet people,
you're thinking about mostly what do I think of them?
What do they think of me?
What business deals are we going to do?
Have I met them before?
Do I look okay?
Do they look okay?
What am I going to say next?
How do I be cool?
Yeah, that's what you're thinking of.
So when they say their name, you never actually hear it and take it in.
Right. thinking of so when they say their name you never actually hear it and take it in right so they
stead in advise you to try and stop your mind thinking about all those questions and instead
just focus on and um keep silently repeating one thought okay which is what is their name
so then once they say you do that you need to associate their name with something else.
So don't just try and remember their name
and just say their name over and over again.
They give an example.
They're like saying, so if someone's name is Rose,
you think about...
Rose's chocolates.
Exactly.
You associate it with something, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So, yeah, or you like wake up and smell the roses, something like that.
So you associate it with something you already kind of know in your mind.
Yeah.
So I thought –
Brie Thomasel, Queensland, cane toads.
That's not the best one.
It could have been cheese.
Cheese.
Oh, yeah, cheese.
Could have been cheese.
Yeah, okay, Brie cheese.
I thought we could give this a go this afternoon with you because you're not –
Yes, please.
You're not very good at it.
So let's test it.
Okay, cool.
All right?
Yeah.
So what I've got here is a bunch of random people that you've never met
on pieces of paper and their names.
Have I really never met them or is this like when you brought in those people
from the office?
I didn't want to embarrass you again that much,
but these are random images from off the internet.
Right.
And we're going to go through 10 people and then we're going to go through
without their names and see how many you can remember.
Okay.
Yeah.
Yeah.
This is a great idea.
Okay.
So, right.
The first person, can we have some background music maybe?
Say it out loud.
Christine Atwood.
Glasses, Glasses Face.
Christine Atwood.
No, it needs to sound like her name, eh?
Mm-hmm.
Christine Atwood.
Christina Aguilera.
Cool.
Got it.
Yep.

Last night, the long-awaited finale of The Block went down.
That show got cancelled twice.
Well, not cancelled, postponed twice by two lockdowns.
They started building them in 2020.
Are we talking Gen Z cancelled or
COVID cancelled? Because you've got to start being
specific now. Well, you know what, with Mark Richardson
as the host,
I reckon they're coming very close to it.
He just needs one slip of the tongue
about the Prime Minister that they don't edit out
and The Block will get cancelled. I think they're pretty
onto it, those editors, I think, think on that show they have a guy following him with a
sensor button like beep beep beep um if you didn't see it the winners tim and arty's house sold for
2.825 million dollars which is a record for the block you'd bloody hope so that you'd think it was um and they pocketed six hundred and sixty
thousand dollars profit plus because of that they got an extra hundred thousand dollars prize money
i've always found it weird that the team that makes the most money gets given an extra hundred
thousand dollars shouldn't it be the team that makes the least gets it that'd be more fair um
no one on that show went home with less than 200 grand each. So they're all very happy.
I've got the numbers here.
You want to know how much they made?
So Connie and Rachel, they made a profit of 422.
Meg and Dan made a profit of 478.
And Dylan and Keegan made a profit of 590.
So they all did pretty bloody well.
Makes you want to go on the next season, eh?
If you watched it, though, and you're like,
oh, man, I'd love to buy a house like this one day,
I think if we're talking about cancelled,
that dream is cancelled.
But as your mortgage broker that you didn't ask for,
I've done some sums for you.
Oh, here we go.
So say you wanted to buy the cheapest house
on the block last night, which was Connie and Rach's house.
That was a bargain at
$2.692 million.
Oh yeah, I'll buy two. What a bargain.
Just over $2.5 million.
Well, not actually just over. How many bedrooms and stuff
did they have? I think they had four bedrooms.
Four bedrooms, two bathrooms. Yeah.
Maybe. And no backyard.
No backyard. Yeah, and a shared driveway.
Yeah. Yeah.
For $2.62 million.
So let's break it down.
You want to buy this house?
You want to buy it?
Oh, not for that price, but okay, let's just say it again.
Yeah, you want to buy it.
Okay, you want to buy it.
Okay, we, the bank, require a 20% deposit for this house.
How much is that?
Your 20% deposit will be $538,000.
Are you kidding me?
Just for the deposit.
And now you're obviously going to need to take a mortgage out
for the rest of it, right?
You don't have cash.
You want to take a mortgage?
No, I need to take a mortgage out.
Okay, so the other 80% of that, the remainder,
after the deposit is $2,153,600.
And I'll just do that
at a current interest rate of four percent over 30 years you want to pay this off
when you're 60 ish yeah great okay we'll just punch that in and okay cool your mortgage will
cost you on that house two thousand three hundred and seventy371 a week.
Who are the people that are buying these?
I don't think it's people with 20% deposits.
I think it's people with bigger deposits that are buying them.
Right.
You know?
That's not a first home.
It's not a start-up home.
How the hell do you save more than half a million dollars?
I can't save $500 a bloody fortnight, let alone...
Jeez.
I'll tell you how you get it fortnight, let alone, jeez.
I'll tell you how you get it.
You go on the block next season.
That's the only way you're going to be able to afford a house in Auckland.
Well, you break in and you just never, ever leave.
Yeah, that's an option too.
