It's Tuesday. It's Tuesday, eh? Is it Tuesday? It sure is Tuesday. It's Māori Language Week. It's good to be here with you. How has your Tuesday been? How's mineori Language Week. It's good to be here with you. How has your Tuesday been? How's mine been? Yeah. Oh, it's been a regular old Tuesday. I was just saying to you how cold it is. Oh yeah.

I feel like it's going to snow. It is snowing around the country. Yeah, like can you text us on 9696, where are you and have you got snow? And how cold is it where you are? Like I just feel like it's got that crisp in the air like it's going to snow. Because get this, in Auckland right now, it's like 12 degrees. Yeah.

We are literally freezing. I didn't see, when was the first time you saw snow? At high school, we went on a trip to Mount Ruapehu. So I would have been like 16. Yeah, right. I was 25 when I first saw snow. Really? Came in a little bag, eh? Us Australians, we just don't

have good snow. We've got crap snow. Some places get snow, doesn't it? Yeah, but it's not good. Like they have to have all the machines going. I remember the first time I stepped foot off the plane in Queenstown. Yeah.

And it literally took my breath away. But you can't have it all. Like, you've got Bondi Beach. You should be happy with that. Yeah, I guess. You know? Yeah. Can't have everything.

New Zealand has the best snow. By a country mile. Today, we have $500 cash up for grabs with Celebrity Treasure Island at five o'clock. Our Pick a Path game is back. Of course, we announced our competition today where we're sending someone to the final Eras Tour in Vancouver. It's not starting today. So we need Taylor Swiftie here on the show today.

It doesn't start today. It starts next Tuesday. Yes, we're just getting you ready, mentally prepared to kick Taylor Tuesdays off. We're just really dragging this thing out. Next Tuesday. Hey, this is interesting. Apparently in Taupo, it's a low of zero. Yeah, it would be.

Overnight. That's a frost. We're coming off the mountains. Yeah, you get a big frost. Lower hut, seven degrees. It's snowing. Where's that hill? Oh, over the Rumataka Hills. Rum off the mountains. You get a big frost. Lower hut, seven degrees. It's snowing. Where's that hill? Oh, over the Wimataka Hills.

Wimataka Hill. Yeah. Bloody cold. Bucketing down in Geraldine as we speak. White lines for everyone. No. No. They're talking about snow.

They're talking about snow. Oh, okay. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Bree and Clint. It's Treatyie versus Lady. Three, two, one, let's go. All right, you Tradies and Ladies. It's time to go head to head.

The Tradies on 75, the Ladies on 80 wins. Our Lady is calling us from the Wairarapa. She is still young. That's her age, officially. And she's always wanted to play Tradie versus Lady. So welcome to the show,arapa. She is still young, that's her age, officially, and she's always wanted to play Tradie vs. Lady. So welcome to the show, Josie. Hi, Josie. Hi. Can you see the

Rimutaka Hills from where you are in the Wairarapa right now, Josie? No, I can't, but I can see the snow on the hill. You can see the snow on top. Is it bloody freezing where you are? It's super freezing. I'm sitting on the side of the road in my car right now and it's cold. I can sense how hard your nipples

are right now. The lips are blue. The lips are blue. They are blue. They're freezing. That's chiller. She skillfully avoided the nipple conversation. We'll go to our tradie who's calling from Hamilton. They're 32 and they're currently travelling with two lambs, a dog

and a cat. Welcome to the show, Denim. Hi, Denim. Hello, hello. How does that work? How do the dogs not attack the cats or the lambs and everything else in between? They're all just really good friends. Cute.

Yeah. Milo and Otis, but also with two lambs. Yeah, we're with the lambs. We're renovating a little batch away from home, so they're coming with us. Cute. Oh, my God, I want to come. That sounds like my dream batch.

Denim, your buzzer is tradie. Josie, yours is lady. The first person to three correct answers will score $50 cash this afternoon. Good luck, guys. Here we go. Question number one. What is happening in 99 days?

Christmas. Lady. Josie. Yes, Josie. Christmas. Nice. You were lucky. You were lucky.

You remembered that buzzer, Josie. She did just in time. Question number two. Crocs, jandals and clogs are all types of what? Lady. Jodie. Josie. Very quick.

Shoes is correct. Gosh. Sheodie. Josie. Very quick. Shoes. Is correct. Gosh, she's quick. She's rapid. She's very quick. That was a close one, Denim. But can you hear the frantic energy coming from Josie? You're going to have to go hard to stay in this game. I'm so nervous.

Like I'm skating. I'm here. I'm here. Come on, Denim. You were close. But Josie, she's quick. Here we go. You need this one, Denim, to stay in it.

Question number three. What are the three colours that make up the Italian flag? Trading. I'm going to say denim. Denim. Only just. Just. White, red and green.

Oh! You saved it, denim. Nice work. Had to think about it. It can get confusing because there's a lot of different flags that are similar colours. Every flag is either red, white and green or red, white and blue. Blue.

Yeah, exactly. Well done. You're on the board with one. Here comes question number four. Buzz in when you can tell me who sings this song. Lady. Josie for the win. Beyonce.

Beyonce's correct. She's a lady. You know what? A great game of tradie versus lady with two great competitors, but well done, Josie. You've taken it out today, $50 cash. Thank you so much. Good game, Denim.

It's a good game by Denim too. Don't feel bad about that one, Denim. That was a very well-played game from Josie. Yes. The lambs put me off. Yeah, the lambs would. That's all right. In 99 days, you can eat them for Christmas.

Shanks. Well, that's a plan. Thank you very much. Bree and Clint. All right, guys. Who wants to know if they're a genius? Oh, yeah. I don't think I'm a genius.

I think I would have an above average IQ, but I don't think I'm a genius. Oh, yeah. I don't think I'm a genius. I think I would have an above average IQ, but I don't think I'm a genius. Yeah. Yeah. I just heard one of our producers scream through a soundproof wall. Was it that outrageous what I said? I just heard your voice penetrate two sheets of soundproof glass. It's just the way you said it.

And then all of us going, really? We wouldn't expect you to say that. I'm trying to be humble. I don't think I'm a genius. You tried so hard. I'm proud of you for trying. What is the average IQ? I think anything. Let me rephrase it.

Who is the average IQ? Because I need like a bitch. Like a hundred and something. Anything above 100 is good, I'm pretty sure. Okay. But like when you're getting into the 120s, 130s, you're a bit above average. I need to take the test.

Rowan Atkinson is like 170 something. He is a genius. He's an actual genius. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But this is quite interesting. Experts have shed some light on what they believe are seven unusual behaviours that they think are directly linked to having a high IQ and how they've done it, I think.

Is one of them overestimating your own IQ? Funny you say that. No. But these are on the list. So what I thought we could do, there's four of us in here. Let's see, based on this very simple test, who has the most of

these unusual behaviours. And then we'll find out who in the team is most likely to be a genius. And people listening can play as well. You just count how many of these. If you've got one of these things, you get a point. And we'll see who has the most points at the end. Sure. Okay, the first one. Talking to yourself.

Although often spoken of as the first sign of madness, research shows that having a chinwag with yourself could well improve everything from memory to your ability to focus. Out loud? No, I do not have a conversation with myself. I do.

I do all the time. Not even joking. I don't know if it means out loud with myself. I do. I do all the time. Not even joking. I don't know if it means out loud. I talk to myself inside my brain all the time. Oh. I don't really have a conversation with myself. Shut up. Yeah.

Sorry. I'd say if we're taking it at face value, no, I don't talk to myself. Me too. You don't have an inner monologue? No, in a yes. What? Okay. But I think this is talking about out loud.

Did you just say what's an inner monologue? No, no, no. That's what? Okay. But I think this is talking about out loud. Did you just say what's an inner monologue? No, no, no, no. Wait, what? He doesn't? Like, so when you're going to the car, do you just go to the car? You don't think about it? No, I do have an inner monologue. Yeah.

But it's not like an out-tweet conversation. Yeah, I'm confused with that one. We're going to get, this is going to take too long. Ella, yes. Yep. I think the rest of us, no. Okay, no. Okay, number two, night owl behaviour.

So if you struggle to shut out racing thoughts when everyone else is fast asleep, then your big brain could be to blame. That is 100% me. Yeah, I reckon that's me as well. Full of sleep like a log. Yeah, that's not me. I'm straight out. Yeah, you go to sleep straight away.

Number three, daydreaming a lot. Oh, my gosh, yes. Oh. Yeah, you go to sleep straight away, eh? Instantly, yeah. Number three, daydreaming a lot. Oh, my gosh, yes. Yes. No, I don't think so. Yeah. I definitely kind of am off with the theories most of the time. Yeah, yeah. I'd give myself one for that.

Yep. Number four, a messy office space. Yes. Yep. That's 100% me. I would like it to be clean. It just doesn't happen. As much as my partner wishes that I wasn't, but I'm very messy.

No, I'm a clean freak. Which I wish I was. Number five, inquisitiveness. So some may think of themselves as too smart to ask questions, believing they already know all the answers. However, those with true intelligence will likely fire off questions left, right and centre, having a natural curiosity about the world around them.

Yeah, no, that's me. I was that annoying guy at university who was asking questions and everyone's like, let's wrap this shit up. I was trying to get more information. So yes, that's me. I reckon that's me as well. If I don't get it, I'll ask.

Yeah. I love asking questions. Yeah. I feel like I ask Brie a lot of questions. Yeah, I feel like this is out of the whole team. It's definitely you, Ella. Thank you. It's a nice trait, being inquisitive.

Yeah. Number six, introvert tendencies. A what? Introvert tendencies. Yeah, me. I'm so smart! Me! Do I have a high IQ?

Not the introvert yelling out loud how much of an introvert they are. I do feel quite comfortable in this studio. True. I would say nearly to everything. Yeah, I could see how you could be introverted. I'm definitely introverted. I definitely, I identify as an introverted extrovert. Yes.

Are you ambivert both? Never even heard of an ambivert. It's my high IQ giving you a big word. No, not an introvert. I'd say yes. I've got tendencies to be an introvert. I'm very much a homebody. Don't like to go out most of the time. Okay, number seven.

Last one. Keeping a full bookshelf. Yep. If you want to boost your intelligence, then make sure to always have a book on the go. The positive effects are significant. That's not me. I do not have a big bookshelf. I haven't read a book in years.

I've got a full bookshelf, but I haven't read any of them. Hey, you still have it. It still counts, right? Still have it. Still a point. Clint gets a point, not me. All right, Claudia, tally us up and let us know who on the Brianne Clint Show is the smartest. Claudia, tally us up and let us know who on the

Brie and Clint show is the smartest. Okay, guys. I've got the results. You're going to love this. Do you want just number one? No, you don't. Give us our scores.

Okay. Coming in with three points, Clint. Yay. Four points, me. Yay. Hooray.

Five points, Brie. Oh, shut up. I willoray. Five points, Bree. Oh, shut up. I will take it. And with a grand total of six points, our smartest team member, Ella. If that's true, we're in trouble. Ella told us today that she only recently learned about evolution. We said we weren't going to talk about that.

Ella told us earlier today that she only just found out that we're descended from apes Today Can I just say, obviously we say funny stuff for the radio But Clint is being 100% honest That 100% for real happened I just don't know She goes, God, it was so crazy when I learnt about, you know, how we have developed from apes.

I only learnt about it like last year. I don't know. I'm just jealous, Ella, because you got double my score. It's hard to... Brie and Clint, we're back after this on ZM. Brie and Clint. Oh, we need to talk about this. This is big news.

It's quite sad news, actually, though, but it's sad and happy news. But the oldest cat in the world has finally passed away. Is it happy news because the cat was an a-hole? No, it's happy news because, you know, be happy for how many amazing years the cat was. Oh, I see. You're not going to believe when I tell you how old this cat is. Okay.

I actually don't believe that. New Zealand's oldest ever cat. Well, I think it's the world's. Wait, what? This is the world's oldest cat. Is it from New Zealand? I don't think so. Oh, damn it.

I thought we had a world record cat. Okay, no, that's fine. But we could, after we talk about this cat. Yeah, we could, we could. We may have the oldest cat here in New Zealand. You might not realise that you're sitting on the world's oldest pussy right now. Exactly right. Hope it's not mine.

Look, Rosie is her name. The world's oldest cat. Was her name. Was her name. R.I.P. R.I.P. She said farewell to her last and final ninth life, passing away at 33 years old. What the hell?

She was 33. That cat's older than Claudia. I know. Get this, get this. She was born in 1991. Are you serious? I'm dead serious. A cat?

Yes. Are they sure? Remember we talked about that Portuguese water dog last year that they reckon was like 48 or something? They reckon it was a conspiracy? There's no records. No one's ever seen it. They showed photos and they're like, that's two different dogs.

Well, according to the Guinness Book of Records, they have tried, they've contacted Rosie's owner for a number of years. Yeah. Being like, hey, you should really get this on the record. We're aware that you have the oldest cat in the world. And the bloody owner, I think her name's Lila, just never got around to it. Jeez.

So it's not on the Guinness Book of Records, but it is documented like because she got this cat from a shelter in 1991. That cat saw both Gulf Wars. It saw 9-11. It was alive to see both Bush presidencies. That cat has seen everything. God, that pussy saw a lot of Bush presidencies. Can you imagine what kind of condition that cat would be in?

Yeah, yeah. It would have been. It's nice to think about. Bush presidencies. Can you imagine what kind of condition that cat would be in? Yeah. Yeah. It would have been. It's nice to think about. It would have been begging to die. Help me. Please, no more.

They're like, oh, time to take the cat for its yearly shots. Let me go. Take this saucer of milk and shove it up your ass. It's like knocking over bottles of medicine and licking it up. It's like, please. No more. I doubt, I doubt we can find a cat in their 30s. That's wild.

But you never know. We have a strong broadcast transmitter right now. We have the entire country listening. Could we find a cat as old or close to as old as that? We may. Remember my partner's family cat? So the one that they all grew up with came and lived at our flat like a few years ago when we were all living together. So the family cat has come to live with us.

And I was like, how old is this cat? And apparently Shizzle, R.I.P. R.I.P. Was about, I think she was 18. And I swear, looking at her. She looked 40, though. She looked 100. Yeah, this is how Shizzle, I got to pet Shizzle,

and this is how she reacted. Yeah, I ended up calling her shriveled. Shriveled. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. It was just bad. I was like, how? Like, I've seen a cat when it's 18. Yeah.

How can a cat live till 33? She looked dehydrated, like a prune. Yeah, yeah. How old is New Zealand's oldest pussy? Can we find it? Do you have New Zealand's oldest pussy? Have you met New Zealand's oldest pussy? Have you met New Zealand's oldest pussy? Maybe they've passed away now,

but we will take previous cats that have walked among us and how old they were. Or we'll take a posthumous pussy, absolutely. Yeah, for sure. We'll take any pussy we can get. Absolutely. You know, that's what we say on this show. You don't want to be picky.

No. You don't want to be picky about the pussies. That's right. We'll take pussy in memoriam. If you want to submit one, 0800 dial ZM or text it to 9696. We want old. We want the oldest you got. Older than 20 at least, all right?

Yeah, come on. Brie and Clint. Brie and Clint. Sad news, but the oldest living cat in the world has passed away. Rosie died at the ripe old age of 33. RIP Rosie. RIP Rosie. That cat was 10

when the planes hit the towers. It's crazy. And it just died. Yeah. Just now. That cat has seen some things. That cat, that cat, that cat was alive for the Sydney 2000 Olympics. I just can't picture a cat living past 20. I can't imagine a cat living past 16.

You know what is the oldest cat ever recorded? Oh, is that not the oldest? No. Okay. Documented. This is documented. The oldest cat ever to exist on this planet was a cat named Cream Puff from Austin, Texas, who lived to 38 years old.

38! 38! 38. That's older than all of us! That is so much cat food. That cat would have been a skeleton by then. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. All the pictures of Cream Puff would have been from under the age of 20.

Would add no claws left. None of those would be missing. So many teeth. It would be just gums. Its tongue would have just been sandpaper. Let's talk to some people who think they may have New Zealand's oldest pussy. Michelle is here. Hi, Michelle.

Hi, Michelle. Hi, it's Michelle's daughter, Sophie. Okay, hi. I'm the one who kicks them. Hi, Sophie. How old's the cat that we're talking about? He's 21. You've got a 21-year-old cat?

Yep. What's the cat's name? His name's Ginger Nut, but when I was about three, we got him and I couldn't say Ginger Nut, so I'd call him Nut Nut. Nut Nut. Nut Nut. So cute. How old are you, Sophie? I'm 13. You're 13. The cat is like

eight years older than you. Yes. Wow. Sophie, for Nut Nut's 21st, did you get him a yardie? No. 21 shots. Yeah, 21 shots. 21 shots of jelly, get him a yardie? No. 21 shots. Yeah, 21 shots. 21 shots of jelly, mate.

Of course you didn't. Thanks, Sophie. Let's talk to Lee. Hi, Lee. Hi, Lee. Hi. Have you got this cat currently, Lee? No, he just recently passed away.

Oh, I'm sorry to hear that. Rest in peace. What was the cat's name? Eva. Eva. Eva. And how old? How old are we talking for Eva? 21 and three months old.

21 and three months. Those three months count, Lee. Yes, it does. What kind of condition was the cat in its 21st year, Lee? I mean, like he, oh, well, she. Well, I thought he was a he when I was little, growing up, but no, she was a she. But no, she was in pristine

condition. Really? All good. She was just, she just died of old age, unfortunately. Yeah, okay. What kind of cat? Was it a ginger cat? I always pictured ginger cats living a long time. Bulletproof, yeah. No, a tuxedo cat. Oh, I love a tuxedo cat. It's a tuxedo cat.

They've got the white paws and the white under chest, but otherwise they're all black. Cute. They look like they're wearing a tuxedo. Thanks, Lee. Thanks, Lee. We appreciate it. You're welcome. So sorry for your loss. Let's talk to Mandy on 0800Diles.com. Hi, Mandy. Hi, Mandy. Hello. Yours was a ginger cat,

wasn't it? It was. Yeah, my ginger Tom. Can you beat those two for the oldest puss, Mandy? So what's that? Have you got the oldest puss? My ginger puss, 23. 23? 23.

Yeah. You said he was an international cat too. He came over from Perth. He was an international flyer, hence the name Qantas. Oh, there you go. That's a great name for a cat. I know. It's good, isn't it?

I've never come across another one. Mandy, be honest. How many good years did Qantas have and how many not so good years did Qantas have? Well, I mean, all of his years were good. He was a very pampered pussycat. I bet. And, yeah, yeah, he... Because we have someone on the text machine, Mandy.

I just want to see if it's the same for Qantas. Someone said, my cat is 22 and we've been waiting for her to die for four years. She's been holding on. Knocking on death's door. Okay, thanks, Mandy. We appreciate it. Someone said, my cat turned 21 and then got run over a couple of months later. Oh, gutted.

Oh, that's sad. Gutted, literally. God. My cat is 20. Oh, you read that one? I was looking at the top text. You can't read that out. Oh, that's not appropriate.

That's not nice. That is not appropriate. That's not nice. Someone talking about their nana. No. No, that's not appropriate. That's not nice. That is not appropriate. That's not nice. Someone talking about their nana. No. No, that's not good. Yeah. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

Our cat is almost 19. She's lived in three countries and she is surviving on pure spite. Brie and Clint. Quite famously, Brie, you are anti-gift card. Yeah, I'm trying to take that industry down. You don't like gift cards as a gift. You think, I mean, I'm paraphrasing, but you think gift cards are useless and they're a thoughtless gift.

Is that fair? Yes, correct. If you buy someone a gift card, you're basically saying you don't know them at all. I mean, unless they specifically ask for a gift card. Well, this may soften your stance on gift cards. The laws in New Zealand for gift cards are changing. And now to sell a gift card, no matter what store you are,

it has to have a minimum of three years expiry on it. Finally. The ones that have, what, a year on it, it's such BS. It is. And then where does that money go? Oh, guess where it goes? It goes to the company that sold it to you. And all they sold you was a little piece of plastic.

Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's BS. I agree. I think gift cards should never expire. Yeah. Once you've given the company the money. It's your money.

You've got the money, that's fine. I'm going to come in and claim my stuff eventually, but you've got the money business. Yeah. Don't worry about it. Unless that company liquidates. Oh, yeah. You know, then that's a different story.

But if that company's still running, then I should be able to spend my money that I spend on this gift card here. Your enormous wallet has got quite a lot of airtime on the show recently. I've had enough. And part of the reason why it is so enormous is because it's jam-packed full of old, unused gift cards. Yeah, ones that I always forget and then they expire

and then it makes me too angry to get rid of them and I'm like, oh, maybe I can go in and argue. Bree's sifting through her enormous wallet at the moment. There's a lot to sift through. Two cards. This is a Nando's gift card. I mean, shout out to KFC. We would never.

But this Nando's gift card expired in 2020. I don't know when it was issued, but it expired. Did it actually? Are you sure? Yeah. Why is it in my wallet then? Oh, actually, no, sorry. It was issued in 2020.

Yeah. But it expired 24 months after that. So it it in my wallet then? Oh, actually, no, sorry. It was issued in 2020. Yeah. But it expired 24 months after that. So it expired in 2022. God damn it. This is a Prezi card with what had $358 on it. It's now got $55 on it. I don't think Prezi cards expire. Oh, no.

Expiry date. No, don't say. Oh, you've got until March next year. Guys, what should we get for how much? $55. $55. Should we get lunch? You know what you should do?

It would be quite good, is if you go and buy a $55 gift card with it. You should go and put that $55 on a Prezi card and then you'll buy yourself another three years. You know what I learnt the other day? I can't remember where it was. I was with my friend Megan

and we were organising some games for her birthday party and she was like, oh, I want to do a gift card as the prize for whoever wins the games. And anyway, she went to go get and now I'm not going to say what it was because I can't remember, so I don't want to throw anyone under the bus.

Sure. But it was some sort of gift card and she was going to put 50 bucks on it and she's like, stuff that. They said they charge $8 to load the card. An $8 gift card fee. You pay $8 for the card and to be able to load $50. So a $50 gift card would actually cost you $58.

No, I'm coming around to your side now. The gift card industry is going down. Get rid of them, eh? They've got to go down. They've got to go. They've got to go. I mean, can you imagine if you added up, let's say, whatever gift card, let's not name names, but whatever company that has gift cards, right?

Let's say 1,000 people got a gift card, okay? You do the math on this. Okay. Let's say they all got X amount of whatever. Yeah. But what normally happens with a gift card is you buy a bunch of stuff and it doesn't add up to the exact amount. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So let's say 1,000 people, let's say at least, let's say 1,000 people left $2.30 on each card. So 1,000 times $2.30, how much is that? $2,300. That's a lot of money. Of unused gift card money. Is what it is. Yeah, exactly right.

Going straight back to that company. And they're getting it out of you with those gift cards right there. Again, $55. We need to spend this. $100 the Nando's company got out of you with those gift cards right there. Again, $55. We need to spend this. $100 the Nando's company got out of you there. Oh, trust me. I've got enough out of them. Bree and Clint from iHeartRadio.

This is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy. We love these stories, Dean, because they seem so bitchy and scandalous. But Bruno Mars is taking Miley Cyrus to court. We love these stories, Dean, because they seem so bitchy and scandalous, but Bruno Mars is taking Miley Cyrus to court. Bruno Mars is suing Miley Cyrus over flowers, apparently, that she copied his song. So that's what according to the lawsuit says. He's suing her for copyright infringement,

a company claiming that he owned a share of saying the song When I Was Your Man is actually like is... What's the word? Yeah, it's the original and she's copied it. She's stolen the melody and things like that. Because his song is like, I should have bought you flowers.

Is that his song? Yeah, it is. Or held your hair. And then he's saying oh, you've just taken my song and sped it up a bit and made heaps of money out of it. Give me some of that money. Yeah. That's a lot of money, too. This will be a multi-million dollar lawsuit.

I don't know, you know, because Miley won the Grammy for that song. Like, her Flowers song was much more successful than his When I Was Your Man song. That was a very good song as well. Yeah. I'm just really surprised. It's very rare. No, and look, if Bree's rendition wasn't quite enough for you to get your head around it,

let's have a little listen. So Bruno Mars claims that this, his song... I should have bought you flowers and held your hand. Should have gave you all my hours When I had the chance Is the true inspiration for this song. I can buy myself flowers Write my name in the sand Talk to myself for hours

Say things you don't understand Look, look, here's my opinion on it. And Dean, you tell me what you think. Is it similar? Yes. Can you clearly hear that Miley Cyrus' song is inspired by Bruno Mars' song? Yes. Bruno Mars just needs to let it go, mate.

Like, stop having a boo-hoos because Miley Cyrus, her song was more successful. You're so rich, mate. Does it really matter? Well, here's the scandal, Dean. Someone told us recently, because Bruno's just come up with that song with Lady Gaga, out of nowhere, not associated with anything, people are saying that that song is a money grab as well because he's in a whole lot of gambling debt at the moment.

Have you heard that story about Bruno Mars? I have actually heard something like that. I didn't know it was a gambling debt. Yeah, I mean, the fact that he's suing Miley, a celebrity doesn't normally sue another celebrity like this for a kind of similar thing. And then the random song with Gaga, love Gaga, but it was so random and out of left field.

I think there's more to this. I think there's more to this. That makes such sense. And that gives, I think, some more to this. Yeah. I think there's more to this. That makes such sense. And that gives, I think, some more credit to that rumor. Well, watch this space. That's the Goths out of Hollywood with Dean McCarthy. He's our Hollywood correspondent. And we're back after this on ZM.

Brian Clint. Ben Havoc is a man from America. I think he lives in Arizona. And he has found something that was inside him for a very long time. Okay, how did he find out this thing was inside him? X-ray? No. He blew it out of his nose.

Have a listen. I was a kid playing with my Legos. And I had the greatest idea to take one of those little dot Legos and stick it in my nose um today i was blowing my nose in the shower and i blew out a lego dot that has been in my nose for at least 26 years i have had asthma and sleep apnea and i feel like this lego piece has been the culprit for the last 26 years. He's had a piece of Lego up his schnoz for 26 years. It could be the culprit. Could be the culprit.

I've got an important question for you. Yeah. Based off that. Yeah. So he obviously loves Lego. Yep. He's had that bit in his nose for 26 years. Yep.

Once it comes out. Yeah. Do you rinse it off and chuck it back into the Lego set with the other bits of Lego? I don't see why not. I don't see why not either. Unless you're going to put that thing in a frame and be like, this was up my nose. You would just chuck

it back in, wouldn't you? Yeah. Lego is built well. I think it'd be fine. I think it would be totally fine. And you're not going to know which piece was the booger piece once it goes back in. You would hope so, eh? You know? Yeah. Hopefully. If you can't tell, that's when you know that it's okay to go back in. Your body

would know. Yeah. Like, because that's part of you now. When you're rummaging through the Lego set, when you connect with that piece, there'd be like a spiritual thing that goes through you, you know? Totally. Like it's coming home. Exactly. I'm coming home, I'm coming home. I'm coming home.

Have I ever told you about my friend that is an anesthetist? A what? Is that how I say it? An anesthetist? A what? An anesthetist. A what? An anesthetist.

I can't say it either, but it's funnier. An anesthetist? Now I don't know how to say it. An anesthetist. I thought I said it right. An anesthetist. Anesthesiologist. Anesthesiologist. how to say it. Anesthetist. I thought I said it right. Anesthesist. Anesthesiologist.

Anesthesiologist. I can say that. Anesthetist. An anesthetist. Puts people to sleep. Yeah, they put people to sleep. In the emergency room, like emergency surgery, she lives in America and she told me,

I'm going to try and be delicate with how I talk about this. Sure. But she told me one time, because I asked her, I was like, what's the craziest stuff you've ever seen? Yeah. And she was like, well, we get a lot of the same thing of mainly men getting things stuck up somewhere. A certain area. Yeah.

And I was like, what? What? Like, what have you seen? She said, a two kilo sal area. Yeah. And I was like, what? What? Like, what have you seen? She said, a two kilo salami. Get out. Eight billiard balls. What? The pumpy shower gel container.

Yeah. What? A curtain rod. Okay. That's enough. I'm just saying. That's enough. She said she was there every time someone would come in

and she said their explanation was always the same. Slipped and fell? I slipped. Slipped and fell. Fell? Slipped and fell on eight pool balls. And somehow the curtain rod. With the pool balls, I hope the black one went and lost.

I don't know. Otherwise they lost. She said that was quite a bad one because they had to open him up through the stomach to get them out. Yeah, but if he'd sunk the black one early, you know, there's no – Well, it's game over. It's game over. Yeah, so –

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, it would have just been a couple in there. I don't want those stories. I want more like... I'm just saying. I feel like people like that story. I've told people that story. It's a good story. That's not what we're after. But I'm going to get people to call in now and I don't want all stories about

things that you've stuck up there. We don't want those stories. Okay. I mean, unless you've got a really crazy one. I found a broken sewing needle in my toe in an X-ray. It's still in my foot and I have no idea how long it's been there. What? So you don't even remember it getting stuck?

I put a button up my nose. It got stuck very high up. Mum couldn't get it out with tweezers. Doctors couldn't either. So I went back home and tried pepper. Heads up, pepper doesn't make you sneeze. It just bloody burns. Unsure how we got it out, but thankfully

it is out. How big was the button? Great question. It must have been a small button. And could you breathe through it because it had the holes in the middle of the button? Yeah. It's like a little whistle. True. Did you have grommets as a kid? No. Removed? No, no, did you have grommets as a kid? No. I had

removed. No, no, no. So grommets, if you have like an ear canal. Oh, do they put your grommets in? Yeah. So if you have an ear canal that's not, I don't know exactly, but if it's not wide enough or whatever, as a kid, they put these things called grommets and it's like this little plastic

thing into your ear canal to like help it widen. When I was like 19 i was like what is in my ear and i pulled out this grubby looking grommet yuck and it was disgusting yeah that wouldn't go back in the lego box no that was going straight in the bin my ick stuck a gi joe doll up his butt when he was three gi joe reporting for duty Stuck a G.I. Joe doll up his butt when he was three. G.I. Joe reporting for duty. Real American hero. G.I. Joe.

Oh, Joe. Go, Joe. Up my butt. Go, Joe, go. A little to the left, Joe. Okay, Joe. Up my butt. Go, Joe, go. A little to the left, Joe. Okay, a little bit to the right, Joe. You'd rather have a G.I. Joe up there than an Action Man. A hundred percent.

Well, I mean, it depends what you're into. It depends what you're into. Have you seen the shoulders on Action Man? He's broad. He's very broad. Yeah, be like birthing a teenager. He would be. Action Man staunch.

Get some action, man. Oh, 800 dial ZM. This is taking a weird turn, but we're still going to do it. We're still going to do it. Because we're professionals and we've committed to it. Let's press on. On our 800 dial ZM. What was in you? Let us know.

Brian Clint. We're bravely going where no Lego piece should ever go and asking you the question, what was in ya? A man has blown a piece of Lego out of his nose that he lost up there as a child 26 years ago. He believes the piece of Lego has caused him asthma. It's caused him sleep apnea. It's caused him all kinds of issues. Maybe not asthma.

Because that has to do with your lungs. But your constricted airways. Maybe he thought he had asthma because of the piece of. Apnea, yes. Yeah. I think it probably, it could affect apnea. Acne? Who knows?

Irritable bowel syndrome? Maybe. You don't know. We don't know. You're acting like an expert, but you've never had a foreign object in your nose for 20, oh no, you've got that nose ring. It's not up my nose.

Yeah. It's in my nose. It's in your nose, isn't it? Did you ever try and stick anything up your nose? Nah, I don't believe so. Remember when I stuck 58 matchsticks up my nose at the start of the year? That's right. That's right.

You were shoving them in there and one of them went too high. Yes, yeah. I felt like it went into my brain. Well, that was our producer Anastasia's right. That's right. And then you were shoving them in there and one of them went too high. Yes, yeah. I felt like it went into my brain. Well, that was our producer Anastasia's fault. She bought the long matches. Yeah. Remember we asked for regular matches and she bought the long barbecue matches. Yeah.

Which if I was you, I would have taken that personally. Yeah. Yeah. I feel like it was Ella that bought them. Was it? Yeah, it was at the start of the year. Well, person was wrong, but the accusation stands. Okay?

I did what you asked. You did buy the big ones. Buy matches. You did buy the big ones. You did buy the big ones. You set me up for disaster, but I proved you wrong. She hadn't been lost in your nose. She either thought you had a big nose or a long nose.

Which one was it, Ella? She was correct on both, to be honest. We're asking you, what was in you this afternoon on 0800 dial ZM? And this person wants to be anonymous, understandably. Hi, Anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hi, guys. How are you?

We're good. It wasn't in you. It was in your brother, wasn't it? Yeah, it was in my brother. What was it? What was in him? Yeah. A couple of peas and a couple of pieces of corn stuck up his nose.

Peas and corn? Whereabouts? Yes. Well, mum had to take him to the doctor because he got really bad breath and no one could figure out why. They took him to the doctor and they found some rotting vegetables up his nose. That's so yuck. That's so yuck.

So yuck. So yuck. Any nicknames or anything or long-lasting bullying come for your brother from this? Yeah, a little bit. Nothing too major. Yeah, I think warranted, to be honest. He probably would have been maybe three or four. Yeah.

Oh, well, he didn't know better. But, I mean, still bully him for it. Lucky they found the corn because we all know that stuff does not break down. No, it doesn't. It smells real bad. Yeah, it smells real bad. Yeah, I bet. Rotten corn. Okay, thanks,'t. It smells real bad. Yeah, it smells real bad. Yeah, I bet. Okay, thanks, Anonymous.

Rhys is here. I know 800 dials at him. Hi, Rhys. Hi, Rhys. Hey, guys. Rhys, what was in you? When I was like seven or eight, I got one of those beanbag polystyrene beads stuck in my ear.

Oh, no. Yeah. And that took a wee while to get out. That was a nightmare. How did they get it out? It took the doctors like a couple of hours to like tweeze it out. I think they might have even ended up like getting a couple of needles because they couldn't actually get the tweezers around it.

Oh, far out. And you wouldn't want the bead to break apart and you lose the little bits of it into your ear. God. No. your ear. God. No. Nightmare. Yeah. You would have been like a spray bottle can

when you were shaking with that little bead going around inside it, wouldn't you, Rhys? I can still feel it. Yeah. Okay. Thanks, Rhys. This is a good reminder for everybody. Don't put foreign objects anywhere.

Look, someone text through, and I'm not going to lie, when I read this text, I felt sick, only because I pictured it happening to myself. Okay, sure. Okay, someone has text through, because we're asking what was in you. What was in you?

They said, mine's actually the other way round, but I accidentally pulled out my IUD when I was in the shower. I thought the string was the plastic from a clothing tag. I feel like that should have come with like a warning. Well, for people that don't know. No, people know. No, not everyone knows. No, but if they don't know, then they're fine.

They're not worried about it. Well, what's the big deal? It's because it's a woman's thing. An IUD is this little contraption that they have to surgically, they surgically implant it as a form of birth control. And it's shaped so it shouldn't come out very easily. It's kind of shaped like an anchor. It's shaped like the Tesla logo.

It's kind of shaped like a, what's that thing? A grappling hook. A grappling hook is what it's shaped like. And this person, she's pulled it out. How? It's so far up there. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Oh my God, that makes me feel so sick.

I hope you're okay if you're listening. Let's go out with this one. At about the age of three, I managed to swallow an umbrella handle, the curved variety. Mum freaked out and needed grandma to help twist me around to get it out of me. How the hell? How big is a face? How the hell does someone swallow a curved umbrella handle?

That's outrageous Umbrella handle is big No, they're talking about these ones Yeah, I know the one they're talking about But I'm just looking at how, like I don't want to open this because of bad luck Yeah, girthy It's thick

Yeah, yeah Party trick, I guess, you know I wonder if they turn inside out in the wind Hey guys, it's raining Want to see something funny? I wonder if they turn inside out in the wind. Hey, guys, it's raining. Want to see something funny? Bree and Clint. Let's get classical.

It's our game where we guess pop songs in classical style. We played quite a lot last week to launch Manuka Farms' Symphony in the Domain. That's right. That was great. That's going to be an excellent show. This week we're back to playing for KFC. Caused a lot of tension within the group, though,

because it does get very competitive, this game. Turns out Ella only enjoys this game when she's winning. Yeah, I got in my head last week, and it was evident when I did win on Friday when I was calm. Bit of a pressure release for you, wasn't it? No, I'm good. I know what I did wrong. We've been taking texts on 9696.

Bree and I work as a team and Ella works as a solo operator. If you're new to our show, you might think that that's unfair. No, it's the ultimate compliment because this in the past has been Ella's game. It is my game. She's so good that we had to team up. We had to team up. Well, originally you two played it against each other and it was so boring. None of you got it.

So I'm making it a bit better. Okay. Okay, well, we'll see. This is going to be embarrassing if you lose. You can still get some texts in. Ella or Bree and Clint, those are your options for 9696. Someone will score 50 KFC chicken dollars

very shortly. Claudia, please take charge of this. Oh, it's so tense in here. Okay, this is Let's Get Classical. These are pop songs turned classical style

and you guys are guessing what they are. Like you said, Bree and Clint are a team. Ella is working on her own and I reckon we should just jump straight into it. Let's just jump straight into it.

Here's your first song. Ella. Ella. Taste. No, no, no. I don't have anything. The way you get the clinkets against this. I know, I know, but Ella.

I got it. I've got nothing. Are we going to I know, but Ella. I got it. I've got nothing. Yeah, you guys. Are we going to forfeit it? Ella, you're taking too long anyway. Okay, we get time. It's a free guess. It's a free guess.

This is too long. We resign our free guess. Oh, God. Okay, Ella. Espresso by Sabrina Carpenter. Correct. Yes. I didn't hear that at all.

Me neither. I was nowhere near that. I need an espresso apparently. Okay, 1-0. Okay. Guys, you'd hate to lose it from here, Ella. Yeah. It'd be devastating.

I'm going to need something stronger than an espresso after this game. Okay, here is another song for you guys. Ella. Ella. Ella. Pour me a drink post Malone. Correct. I did hear that one. I was close, but not as good as Ella.

Carla, congratulations. You correctly picked Ella for Let's Get Classical and we've got some KFC coming your way. Let's go! Thank you so much for that. You're welcome, Carla. No, it's our pleasure, Carla. Thank you so much for the support, for the vote. Me and you, we just have something.

Thank you. Do you feel better, Ella? Flippin' fantastic. Honestly. Suck it. Someone pour me a drink I'll have a drink You've had too many I think

You're being cuddled We needed to get your confidence back up So we can play properly again next week That's so gaslighting I know you're annoyed No we let you win We had to give you one You had a free vote and you didn't vote us out.

No, we were going to and then we thought, oh, we don't want to kick someone when they're down, you know? No, it's not nice. Oh, it feels good to be back, baby. Calm and collected. That's the secret to life. The iOS 18 update is out for iPhones. Because obviously the new iPhone, what is it, iPhone 16?

I think so. Is coming out. I feel like it's going to be available in New Zealand like the end of this week. And the big update is it now comes in pink. Yeah, it's pretty much the same phone. They're all, yeah. It's not all that.

But, I mean, this is quite a big change maybe depending on who you are and how you see it. But obviously the iOS 18 upgrade is available to any compatible iPhone and you can upgrade from today. And people are talking about this one new feature on this particular iOS update that they are saying could end relationships. Okay. That's juicy.

I know. And I was like, well, I need to know what it is. So apparently... Live locations all the time. You can't turn them off. How did you know? That would cause some questions. It really would, eh?

They're calling this a mega update to the iPhone operating system. And one of the biggest changes is that the photo app is now fully customizable in terms of you can put a lock on any app on your phone, including your photos. You can put a password. You can password protect certain apps. Or your face ID. Yeah. So like going to get into your

phone, you can then put a second one of those, like a second barrier, lock code or your face ID on any of the apps. God, how much, how much, like how little trust do you have for the people around you? Yeah, like what is in

there that you need to hide? It's so bad. It's two ways, right? Either you are untrustworthy and you need to hide what's in the app or you don't trust the people that you live with not to go into your phone and look at your secret stuff. Yeah. Yeah. It's going to cause some fights, I reckon.

What app would you be putting, if you were going to put it on any app, what app would you password protect? My notes section because the last time. Oh, that's right. The notes section got me in the most trouble. We found your poetry in there. Forgot about that. That was so good.

Yeah. And I bravely read out this horrendous poetry that I'd written like years ago. And then you got Saatchi to make a song out of it. How good was that? Actually quite a good song. Do we have it in the system? Maybe. Yeah, we would.

Yeah. Saatchi. Was it Nika who sang on it? No, it was, oh, bless her. I literally saw her the other day. Saatchi and Brie. Indie. India.

There it is. Yeah, yeah. We've got it. Yeah. So before we play this, so this came from, I wrote these lyrics in my notes section of my phone after a breakup. And then for some reason we were talking about the notes section of your phone.

You got a hold of it. We read them out on air. I nearly died of embarrassment. And then those lyrics have found their way to Saatchi. And then this amazing singer, India, has sung on the song with Saatchi and it turned out. Game called love. Game called love.

Producers, have you heard this? You've never heard this, have you? Oh, you have. I'm a listener. So I actually have heard it. Okay. Well, for the newbies, this is a breeze. The song's actually amazing, by the way. It's just cringe for me.

Feeling stuck, stuck in this game called love Just need to rise above, above, out of my mind The love I never had to find in you All I see is you and me How did I get to be Above, out of my mind

The love I never had to find in you Then I realized that me plus you Were never equal to Then I realized that me plus you Were never equal to Now I'm feeling stuck I forgot how good this was. It's so good. The lyrics.

I'm definitely not the best thing about it, but everything else is amazing. The lyrics are very melodramatic. Yeah. And so they lend themselves to a song. Totally. Yeah. You know, I never told you after we bloody did that,

my ex messaged me, the one that it was about, and said, hey, heard this, I saw it, because we posted a video about it. Yeah, yeah, it went everywhere. Yeah. And they messaged me and they were like, hey, I saw this, I saw it, because we posted a video about it. Yeah, yeah, it went everywhere. Yeah. And they messaged me and they're like, hey, I saw this. Is this about me? Yeah. And it was.

And I said, nah, someone else. Yeah, you do. You don't give them the satisfaction. You do not give them the satisfaction. No way. I was like, nah, someone else. Because that's everybody's dream is to have a song written about them. And that song's dope.

Yeah, that song slaps. So good. Yeah, it's such a good breakup song. The password protected app thing is really useful. song written about them. And that song's dope. Yeah, that song slaps. So good. Yeah, it's such a good breakup song. The password protected app thing is really useful. Someone just texted, and we were talking about it for dodgy reasons. Someone's just said it's great for people with kids. Oh, that is a great point.

If you don't want them going on certain apps where they can spend money or swiping left and right on your Tinder. Or even just, you know, getting into things where you're like, oh, they could ruin it or mess up whatever. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And you just put a lock on it.

That's such a good idea. Sucks if your kid resembles you though. You know, like Reese Witherspoon's kid. Do you reckon Reese Witherspoon's face ID works on her kid's phone? Yes, I do. Because you remember back when we had nothing better to do. So we got those two identical twins. Yeah.

And we asked them, can you unlock each other's phone with your faces? And they can. That was amazing. But I'm like, oh, it makes sense. We should get Raygun in here from the Olympics and see if you can unlock her iPhone with your face. I don't know if you can get us in the same room together.

Wow, that is the conspiracy, isn't it? That's what people are saying. Bree and Clint. Look, what I'm about to say and what I'm about to share and tell you, I don't want you to think differently of me. Okay. I already know that it's horrible. I'm disappointed in myself. I'm embarrassed.

Sure. So I already know that. But I'm going to be open and honest with something that happened this morning. I said something. And look, not my best moment. Are we at risk of suffering secondhand embarrassment through this story? Absolutely. All right.

That's exactly what it is. All right. Everyone tints up. Everyone just brace yourself. Yeah, I tense up. Everyone just brace yourself. So this morning, went out and did some work and I stopped in at my favourite cafe. This is my

favourite cafe in all of Auckland. Do you go there a bit? I go there quite a lot. They know me. You're a regular. Because I go once a fortnight, once a week. You get the same thing. I get the same thing. I don't even need to look at the menu. They know my face.

G'day, Bree. Just the usual? The usual. I say, absolutely. Chili eggs and a cup of tea, please. And they're bringing out lovely people. Today, same thing happened. It was a normal situation.

Walked in. The owner has come out, a lovely bloke, it's a little couple that own it. Blokes come out and he said, oh, you want the usual? And I said, yeah, absolutely. Anyway, afterwards, there's another girl that's working at the till. I've went up to pay and she said, oh, what table were you sitting on? I said, oh, just this table here. Anyway, she's obviously looked up the table and she said, oh, none of your food or anything has been put through. She goes, the owner always does that. And that's when I said, must be free then.

Oh, you didn't. I instantly regretted it. The blood left my face. Can I guess how the girl responded? She would have gone huh. She was young. She was cool.

Oh she gave me that sympathy laugh. I believe it was like haha. Yeah. And then literally said nothing else it was like haha. Haha, yeah. And then literally said nothing else. She goes, haha, yeah. $29. I think she was

very angry at me that I'd put her in that situation. Yeah, look. And I don't blame her. I'm embarrassed for myself. I want to How did I end up here, Clint? How did I end up here? There's a couple of reasons these things happen. And sometimes I find it happens when the person that is serving you

is quite attractive, you know, and you get all flustered and you get all caught up. Were they good looking? Yeah. Were you attracted to them? Oh, look, I don't think I was really in that mode. No, okay, so it wasn't that? I don't think that's what distracted me.

Okay. I just second guessed. Were you secretly hoping that they were giving you free breakfast? No. No? And that makes it even worse. Yeah. It makes it ten times worse because I was merely saying it for a joke.

You were just trying to fill air. I know the feeling. At least if I was saying you're trying to get a free breakfast, there is you know, there is something behind it. Yeah. There is purpose behind what I'm saying. Nah, I think if you're trying

to get the free breakfast, it's worse. I think this is better than if you were. Oh, you reckon? Yeah. I think this is less cringy than if you were actually if it actually seemed like you were trying to get a free breakfast. I talked about, I put it up on my Instagram story and I am getting roasted by my close friends.

Like roasted. One of my close friends said, sorry, I didn't realise you identified as a middle age boomer real estate agent. A middle age boomer real estate agent. A middle-aged boomer real estate agent. It is giving that energy, you know?

I mean, it is. She's not wrong. It's okay. You've owned it, okay? The worst thing would be... It's all downhill from here. The worst thing would be is if this story got back to us secondhand, you know? But by coming on here and owning it, you've taken the power back.

Yeah, I front-footed I front yeah I front footed it you front footed it yeah I know my mistake which is totally I put my hands up and I say I know hey I did this

I know I did this I'm in the wrong I am not that person okay it was a momentary lapse in judgement oh shit

it won't happen again oh shit it won't happen again it's all down I hope not it's all downhill from here we want to know this afternoon what would you take back if you could? Yeah.

What's the thing that you said in the situation that it was that as soon as it came out of your mouth, you went, Oh, no. Really wish I hadn't said that. That was the wrong thing to say. Really wish I hadn't said that. Be honest with us. Be honest with us.

You own it. Makes you feel better. 0800 dial ZM. Or if you're not brave enough to own it live on air, you can text it to us on 9696. We will understand. Okay? What is the thing that you really wish, if you could, you could take back?

Like, what was the situation? Like, I'm just picturing horrific situations right now. Bree and Clint. We want to know the beautiful things or not so beautiful things Like, I'm just picturing horrific situations right now. Bree and Clint. We want to know the beautiful things or not so beautiful things that you wish you could take back. You said them, you know you said them, and if you could stuff those words back down your throat, you would. Happened to me this morning.

Situation arose, one of my favourite cafes that I can never return to, can never go back there. Walked up to pay at the counter and she said, oh, your food hasn't been put into the till yet. And I said, must be free then. And she said, it's not. Now pay. So we want to know what's the thing that you are really embarrassed by and you wish you

could take it back. Renee's here. Hi, Renee. Hi. What was it for you? I actually work in retail at an op shop, funny enough, and we get that all the time. I've had three already today.

Must be freeze. You've had three must be freeze today. Do you reckon, Renee, they regret it as much as I did? No, actually. I do it as well. I do it all the time. I go, oh, must be freeze then. And then they go, actually. I do it as well. I do it all the time. Oh, must be freezing. And then they go, no. Renee, as the person on the receiving end of the must be freeze,

I've got to ask you, has it ever been funny? Has it landed ever? It's always funny. Oh, okay. Yes, Renee. All right. Thanks, Renee. I like it.

Renee's got her opinion and she sticks to it. Someone said, I really regret this. I was catching up with someone and I said, oh, my God, long time no see. When are you due? They had had the baby 12 months ago. Oh. Oh, I just want the world to swallow me up and die. When are you due?

We had to give our phone number over and my mum gave the wrong phone number and I said, hey, that's not our phone number. She said, don't worry, she's dumb. I still think about it over 20 years later. Don't worry, she's dumb. Obviously, I'm giving out the wrong number because I don't want these people to have our number. Hey, that's not our number.

Don't worry about my kid. She's thick as a post. She's so dumb. A kid was in our shop playing with a small wooden toy from Toy Story. I said out loud, oh, look, you've got a little Woody. Oh, no. Look, it happens to everybody, okay? Oh, there's so many great ones.

There's so many. We could continue to read them out, and I feel bad for every single one of you. But it does happen. These things happen. I'm a doctor, and I said to a previous drug addict that there could be worse things to be addicted to than avocado, as she was telling me

how much she loves an avocado. That's so good. The person's like, yeah, like methamphetamine? Okay, okay. We need to take a break. I need a glass of water. We're going to do a birthday. That was good stuff, guys.

The number one song, The Day That You Turned 16. Brian Clint. We were just talking before about things that you said and you instantly wish that you could take back. Just one more text here from someone who says, I'm a vet nurse. A person came in to book their dog an appointment. The person had a lump on their eyelid, which I noticed.

Coincidentally, they wanted to book their dog in for a lump removal. I instantly said, lump on the eyelid? I died internally. Lump on the eyelid. Lump on the eyelid. Lumpy lumpy lump. I see you have a lump on your eyelid. Big lump. Big lump on the eyelid. Lumpy, lumpy, lump. Lump. I see you have a lump on your eyelid.

Big lump. Big lump on your eyelid. Lump. Your dog can have a free appointment. Yeah. Free and clean. All I want for my birthday is a birthday dinner. Hey, we all do it.

Lump on the eyelid? We can't help it. Do dogs have eyelids? Yeah. Okay. Yeah. They've got two't help it. Do dogs have eyelids? Yeah. Okay. Yeah. They've got two sets of eyelids. Do they?

They've got one that goes across, horizontal, and then one vertical. That's cats, isn't it? Dogs have it too. Do they? I'm pretty sure.

Okay. Well, my dog looks real weird with just some weird second eyelid. Let's do some birthday bangers. The number one song on the day these people turn 16. Renee's going first. Hi, Renee.

Hi, Renee. Hi. How was your day, Renee? It was great. Oh, good to hear. You've got good energy, mate. What's your date of birth? 20th of August, 1990.

All right, that means you were 16 in 2006. And on your 16th birthday, this was at the top. Oh, yeah, yeah. Bit of Fergie, London Bridge. What do you reckon, Renee? Yeah, that's a banger. Sometimes I think about Fergie's back catalogue, and you know how you, like, go and see an artist who's touring into their 60s

and that sort of thing, doing their greatest hits? Yeah. Is Fergie busting out songs like London Bridge? She should. Fergalicious. And the one-handed cartwheel. Hell yeah. Yeah, yeah.

Fun fact, I didn't realise that until I travelled to London last year, I didn't realise what I always thought was the London Bridge actually isn't the London Bridge. It's the Tower Bridge. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The London Bridge is very boring. It's very boring. It's just a bridge.

It doesn't even look different. Wait there, Renee. You could be the winner of Birthday Banger. Coco is going to do their Nan's Birthday Banger. Hi, Coco. Hi, Coco. Hi. You're Nan or you're Nanny?

Nanny. Oh, you're Nanny. Okay, what's your Nanny's name, Coco? The 14th of November, Amanda. Okay, perfect. And what's Amanda's birthday? The 14th of November, 1993. Oh, you've done a great job, Coco.

That means Nanny Amanda was 16 in 2009, and here's her birthday banner. Yes, definitely nanny, not Nan. That's a young Nan. Yeah. But definitely right for Nanny Amanda. Coco, does she like it? Yes. Yes.

I'm voting for Lifehouse. Me too. You know, we're tragic Lifehouse fans from way back, you and I. Briley, you won birthday banger. Well done. Awesome. Sweet. Thanks, Briley.

I'm desperate for changing, starving for truth. Bri and Clint. Way about coming here with you? Banger. The winner of birthday banger from 2001 is Lifehouse and Hanging by a Moment. What a choose. Where do you reckon Lifehouse are at now? Oh, I reckon they're still touring around North America.

I reckon they do. They have like a solid, solid like. Chapels. Nah, they were cool, Christian. You know, like. Like Evermore. They do. They'd have like a solid like. Chapels. Nah, they were cool Christian. You know, like. Like Evermore. They rock.

Yeah, like. Was Evermore? I'm pretty sure Evermore was like came from Christian roots. I thought they were just homeschooled. Well, they could be both. Yeah, true. Evermore burnt out fast, didn't they? Everyone was like.

They had some global hits. Everyone was like Evermore. they're the next crowded house. Running. Yeah. Oh, that was a banger. And then they put out a really, really weird album. Kiwi Boys, eh? Yeah, from Fielding. And then, and then, from what I hear, the Kiwis turned on them

because Evermore tried to claim they were Aussie. They'd said in an interview that they were from Melbourne. That's right. Why would they do that? I remember now we disowned them. Why would they do that? Because they did an interview and they said they were from Melbourne. At least that's how I remember it. That could be wrong.

There has... Oh my God. Get this. I just Googled Lifehouse. Where are they now? Yeah. It says there has been no official announcement of disbanding Lifehouse

though all of the guys are working on other projects these days. The last album they put out was at the end of 2021 and that's their latest release. Lifehouse is forever.

Lifehouse is for forever. Evermore, however. Is forevermore. Dead to us. Next on the show, Bree has a certain amount of information that can determine whether you have a high or low IQ without even taking an IQ test. You can take...

We've come up with our own test and if you tick the boxes for these different behaviours, then you could have a really high IQ. We'll tell you next if you're a clever goose or thick as a brick. You're on The Brian Clint Show on ZM.

Brian Clint. Did you ever watch Amazing Race? Was that a show that you watched? Yeah, I watched bits and pieces. Amazing Race was huge for a long time. And for a long time as New Zealanders, it was our main claim to fame that the man who hosted the Amazing Race was a Kiwi. Yeah, right.

I didn't realise that. None of us did. His name's Phil Cogan. He doesn't have a New Zealand accent. He sounds very American. He sounds very American. But somehow it got out that he was a kiwi and there's never really been any other proof other than the rumor that he is until today okay

okay last night the emmys went down in the us of a that's the television awards yes phil kogan host of the amazing race was their owner of the products, Kogan. Is he? I don't know. Is he the CEO of Kogan Mobile? Yeah. I wonder if he is. Remember the Kogan TVs? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Dick Smith sell a lot of Kogan. Do they?

We looked at getting a Kogan baby monitor. Oh, yeah. They do like a knock-off of a good baby monitor. Apparently they're good but I was worried. I was like, it feels like it could be hacked. Oh, yeah. They do like a knockoff of a good Baby Monitor. Kogan is – Apparently they're good, but I was worried. I was like, it feels like it could be hacked. Oh, true. I didn't even think about that with Baby Monitor.

No shade to Phil Kogan and the Kogan Company. I just – I decided that the Baby Monitor was worth splashing out on. Yeah, that's fair. But I'd run a Kogan – I wouldn't run a Kogan smoke alarm. I'd run a Kogan TV. Yeah, I'd run a Kogan TV. I'd run a Kogan TV. I'd run a Kogan TV. I'd run a Kogan microwave. Yeah, absolutely.

I'd run a Kogan car. Car? Why not? Anyway, Phil Kogan, no relation to the Kogan company. No, I don't think so. Was at the Emmys and he went over to John Oliver, who you will remember last year very famously took on and took down the Bird of the Year competition.

He hijacked it. He hijacked it, but we're into it. I think it was good. I think he got publicity for a competition that otherwise only gets 50,000 or 60,000 votes. He got millions of votes for it. Which is wild. Phil Cogan went over to break the news to John Oliver that his beloved Pu-Tiki-Tiki had been dethroned.

I've been contacted by the Prime Minister of New Zealand to make an official thank you to John Oliver for bringing the birds of New Zealand into the limelight. I'd like to thank you for the birds that never got recognition. That's right, let's recognise all New Zealand birds, but let's be clear. Yes. There is one bird that is better than all others. The hoiho you're talking about. It's the Pūtiki-tiki. You are absolutely out of your mind. No, it's the bird that everybody better than all others. The hoi ho you're talking about. It's the pu-teki-teki.

You are absolutely out of your mind. No, it's the bird that everybody's talking about, John. You're talking about a bird. It's the bird that you're talking about. Hoi ho, hoi ho. Off to work you go. Puteki-teki for life. Puteki-teki for life.

Puteki-teki for life. He's not letting it go. I like that he remembers his bird because there's a chance, there's always a risk that these big celebrity types just get told, this would be funny, just do this, and then they forget about it. No, I believe John Oliver is passionate about Bird of the Year. You could tell from his reaction there. Because he actually, we forget this.

We think that he took out Bird of the Year. No, he managed to crown the poo, tiki-tiki, a bird that we had never heard of until last year, Bird of the Century. That's right. It was Bird of the Century. And that, I remember, it's all coming back to me now. That's what upset me. That's right. It was bird of the century. And I remember it's all coming back to me now. That's what upset me.

No, actually. Yeah, actually. No, actually. Stop. Actually, stop. Now that we remember, I'm ropeable again because you and I, I feel like we felt the same. This is right.

How dare he? The kiwi is the only bird that can be New Zealand's bird of the century. Yeah, shove it up your pipe, John Oliver. How dare he do that? We've been triggered. We've been triggered again. The pootiki-tiki has triggered us again. I can't believe you just brought that up again.

I totally forgot. Outrage. Brian Clint. Cup of tea, lie down. We'll be back with the latest. Brian Clint. That is the end of the Brian Clint show for another day. God, another one in the bank, eh?

Put her in the bank. Not long to go. Deposit that one and move on to the next teller. Till we get to our 1,000th show. Question here for the group, the Brian Clint Show. When was the last time you deposited money? Good question. I'll take either at an ATM, because you can do that at some ATMs.

Or in a bank. Or in a bank. Oh, yeah, it'll be the last thing that I sold on Trade Me for a decent amount. That's what mine was too. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You feel like such a criminal, eh, with a wad of cash. You're like stuffing it into the machine. Those new smart ones are good where you can just put the whole wad of notes in there at once
