Our lady is calling from Cambridge. She's in her early 40s and people roast her for loving Coronation Street. Welcome to the show, Erica.

Starting point is 00:03:17 Have you ever met any of them in real life? No, I haven't. I nearly applied for a job working there, though. My husband wouldn't let us go. Wow, you do love Coronation Street. God, your husband. What a dead weight. Get rid of him.
Starting point is 00:03:32 Yeah. I know. What do you love more, Coronation Street or your dumb husband? Not saying that live on air. Yeah. We know the answer, Erica. Don't worry. We know.
Starting point is 00:03:42 You're taking on our tradie from Rangi Ora today, the 32, and they are playing tradie versus lady for their second time. Welcome to the show, Regan. Hi, Regan. Hi. Do we want to know how you went in your first go? It was a close game. That's good.

No. So it's Redemption Regan, is it? Yeah. Okay, we like it. We like to see it. Let's go with your names as your buzzers today.
Starting point is 00:04:10 Erica and Regan. And the first person to get three correct answers wins Tradie versus Lady. Best of luck. Here we go. Question number one. Which district does Katniss Everdeen come from in the Hunger Games series? Regan. Be my guest, Regan. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:30 District 10. District 10. I mean, it's a great guess, but it's not right. Erica, throw out a number. Nine. No. Another great guess. 12 is what we were looking for.
Starting point is 00:04:40 District 12. District 9 is that Peter Jackson movie about the South African aliens, eh? Oh, I think I've seen it. It's really good and they eat cat food. Yes. And they live underground? No. No, that's a different film. Don't know what I'm thinking of. Moving on. One
Starting point is 00:04:57 to no one. No one got that one. Question number two. What is the Japanese word for a raw fish dish? Erica? Yes, Erica's in. Number two, what is the Japanese word for a raw fish dish? Erica. Regan. Yes, Erica's in. Sashimi.
Starting point is 00:05:11 Sashimi. Sashimi it sure is. Well done. I feel like Regan was right there behind you, but you got the points. One to the ladies. Question number three, buzz in when you can tell me who sings this. Regan's in. Nicki Minaj.
Starting point is 00:05:30 Nice. Did you lose it for a second there, Regan? It's the pressure, eh? It is. It does it. It does it to you. Okay, this is a good game. We're on one apiece.
Starting point is 00:05:41 Question number four, if you're an octogenarian, what decade of life are you in? Yes, Erica. You're 80. Correct. Well done, Erica. And probably quite up to date with Coronation Street. Oh, yeah. Yeah, definitely. Even a half octogenarian.
Starting point is 00:06:00 That was a dig at you, Erica. Two to the ladies, one to the tradies. You need this one, Regan, to stay in it. Question number five. What clothing item is the Australian company RM Williams' most famous... Yes, Erica, for the win. Shoes. Footwear.
Starting point is 00:06:18 Shoes, footwear, we'll take it. That's a win for the ladies. She's a lady. Oh, oh, oh, she's a lady. That was a tight old game for a Tuesday, but Erica comes out on top. Well done, mate. Thank you. You'll have to go for re-redemption, Regan.
Starting point is 00:06:36 Yep. I will. Third time lucky, Regan. Call back any time, mate. Thank you. Bree and Clint. You know when you got married, your wife, did she buy her wedding dress brand new? No.
Starting point is 00:06:50 She borrowed one from someone? No, she got it from a wedding dress boutique that resells designer wedding dresses. So secondhand wedding dress? Yeah, yeah. Apparently secondhand wedding dresses really on the rise. Yeah, it's a great idea. A lot of people are now buying secondhand wedding dresses. I think it's a great idea.
Starting point is 00:07:16 Yeah. Makes so much sense. And a lot of people are wanting more vintage stuff. Vintage is, it's great for vintage. It's also like, I understand the nostalgia of keeping your wedding dress forever. But in reality. It just goes mouldy in the end, doesn't it? Even if it doesn't go mouldy, you're never going to wear it again.
Starting point is 00:07:34 My mum's still got hers and it's pretty special. For a lot of people, though, it's depressing because they just look at it and they go, well, I'll never fit that again. Yeah, because you work so hard. You work so hard to get into it. Not me. I'm going to put on a whole lot of weight if I ever get married. For your wedding. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. And then so...
Starting point is 00:07:51 So the future can only get better. So all the pictures of me around my house, you know, where we'll have all our wedding photos, I'll be like, I look better than that. What a glow up. God, I look exactly... What a glow up I've had. Such a good idea. Yeah, yeah. It's a life hack.
Starting point is 00:08:06 It's big business. Especially because it's quite trendy now to have two wedding dresses. So you have the one for your ceremony. The uncomfortable one. Yeah, and then you have your party dress. The comfy one. So you might as well bring down the price of at least one of them. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:19 You know? There's a story on the NZ Herald today where they're talking about this woman who opened her own boutique. It's called Love James, if anyone's interested. It's on K Road in Auckland, and essentially she's collected all of these amazing, like, vintage bridal gowns and just stuff from everywhere, and you can go in there and... Do you buy them or do you rent them?
Starting point is 00:08:42 That's a great question. I feel like maybe both. I feel like you'd want to buy it because if you rent it... You don't want to be worried about... Like, I think you want to wear a wedding dress that one or two people have been married in. I don't know if you want the ghost of 500 weddings passed in your wedding dress.
Starting point is 00:09:00 You know, my brother, who got married last year said to, he goes oh I'll just rent my tux. Yeah. And for me like I get, because I'm all about saving, I think weddings are way overpriced. Yeah of course. People spend so much money on them. But I'm like if there's, he doesn't have
Starting point is 00:09:20 any nice. No. Like suits. Yeah. I'm like if there's one time where you're going to spend the money and treat yourself and buy yourself a nice suit, it's for your wedding. Also, unlike a wedding dress, a man will wear a suit again. You can wear that. Yeah, yeah. Heaps of times.
Starting point is 00:09:34 He can wear it to your wedding. Yeah. One day. Yeah. Yeah. We could all dream. Ella, you're getting married in the next couple of months. I was just about to ask.
Starting point is 00:09:45 Secondhand wedding dress, yes or no? Well, first of all, have you got your wedding dress sorted? I bloody hope so. It's a bit late. The wedding's in April. Brand new or secondhand? Well, so it was brand new. Forgot after buying it.
Starting point is 00:09:59 Alterations also cost a lot of money. So my plan is to sell it afterwards and hopefully let that be secondhand and live on. Let someone else have it, yeah. Is it rude to ask how much you spent? You can guess. You can tell me no if you don't want to answer. I don't love it.
Starting point is 00:10:16 I'm not proud of it. It's your wedding. It's a little bit up there. Not what I wanted. You also don't have to tell us. No, I'm not telling you. Okay, fair enough. You can guess.
Starting point is 00:10:23 A thousand. Five thousand. No, lower than that. Four thousand. But she's going to sell it. My mum is paying for it. My buttons are just bloody tightened up then. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:10:37 So it started off at like high two, which is, that's a lot, but it's perfect. Yeah, yeah. And then alterations just went up and up. And I was like, oh, my gosh. You could buy a secondhand RAV4 for that. Don't but it's perfect. Yeah, yeah. And then alterations just went up and up. And I was like, oh, my gosh. You could buy a secondhand RAV4 for that. Don't even. I know. I know.
Starting point is 00:10:51 That's why I'm selling it. You'll look amazing. It's one day of your life. And imagine coming down the aisle in a secondhand RAV4. That would be cool. Oh, my God. You get a white one? No, I want a yellow one.
Starting point is 00:11:00 Unless it's your second time being married, in which case you can get a colorful RAV4. You put the little cans off the back of the RAV4. Well, that's out the window. You got the dress. That's all right. I'll sell it. It's great.
Starting point is 00:11:11 I thought we could ask people this afternoon, what is something that you bought secondhand that maybe people don't normally think about buying secondhand? I've made a list of some. I've been going through my life to find out what my other secondhand things are. I bought secondhand exercise equipment, like weights, because they're just weights. They don't get less heavy the older they are, do they?
Starting point is 00:11:33 I think that's a great idea. Something I wouldn't buy secondhand in terms of exercise stuff, bike pants. No. I think splurge. Buy a new pair. I got a secondhand Dyson. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:46 Which I wouldn't recommend. It sucks and not in the good way. We just got rid of it. Yeah, fair. I got a secondhand dog. Yeah. Pre-loved dog. You got one of those.
Starting point is 00:11:56 I got a pre-loved dog. And I got a secondhand cat as well. Yeah. Hey, all good things. Remember when I got the secondhand dishwasher and I was like, is this gross or not? Best thing I ever did. Yeah, I can't believe you thought that was possibly gross. It was a quarter of
Starting point is 00:12:07 the price. Yeah. Worked perfect. If you'd got secondhand, I don't know. We'd clean the hell out of it though. It's not a secondhand toothbrush. No. There's certain things I wouldn't buy secondhand, but damn, I'd buy a lot of stuff secondhand though these days. What did you buy that people maybe don't
Starting point is 00:12:23 consider going and getting secondhand? Is it a life hack? Yeah. And did it work out or would you not recommend it? And are you pretending that you did it for the planet? Bree and Clint. Secondhand stuff. Apparently wedding dresses on the absolute rise. Very trendy to
Starting point is 00:12:39 buy a secondhand wedding dress. I think obviously it's always been around but there's an extra boom at the moment. A couple of those dresses on Married at First Sight looked pretty vintage. I imagine they give you a free wedding dress if you do Married at First Sight, but I wonder what the budget is.
Starting point is 00:12:54 You know, if you go, I'm bougie, I want a $5,000, $6,000, $7,000, $8,000 wedding dress, they'd go,
Starting point is 00:13:00 no, that's nice. Your budget is two and a half. Yeah, it's still pretty good. Yeah. Two and a half, expensive. Yeah. Your budget is two and a half. Yeah, it's still pretty good. Yeah. Two and a half, expensive. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:07 I wouldn't be spending that much. You haven't been married. You don't know. No, I know myself. I could not give over two and a half grand. I'd be like, I'm going to wear this dress for like. You just wear your mum's. Trust me, I can't fit into that.
Starting point is 00:13:22 Oh, just get it modified. She was a size six on her wedding day. Really? My partner fits into it. Has she still got it? Yeah. Yeah. We went home, my partner and I, and my partner fits into it.
Starting point is 00:13:33 Oh, yeah. You can wear your dad's suit. She can't breathe, but she fits in. Yeah. So we're asking, what's the thing that you got secondhand and do you recommend it? Someone said, my now fiance got a secondhand kid when she got with me.
Starting point is 00:13:46 Hey. You can't refer to your kids as secondhand, okay? Technically, I mean technically not wrong. Technically. A few miles on the clock. Someone else said we bought a new house and when we bought it, we bought their TVs, their
Starting point is 00:14:01 washing machine and dryer. No need to connect all the TVs. Sold our other TVs. Best move ever. That is genius. That's a life hack. It's weird, eh? Because you do that for ovens.
Starting point is 00:14:13 When you buy a house, it comes with an oven. Just comes with the oven. But what's the difference between an oven and a fridge? Is there anything else a house just comes with? Curtains? Yeah, people will leave curtains. Most people don't take their curtains. They will leave curtains they'll leave curtains in there
Starting point is 00:14:26 anything else toilets I'm trying to think what are the mandatory chattels that you have to have in there yeah toilets but I mean you can't really take those out taps
Starting point is 00:14:40 anything not screwed down right I really like this text. This is so interesting to me. They said, I buy and sell secondhand. It's been my side hustle since I was a teenager. I'm now 38. Garage sales are my thing. I recommend never buying a washing machine secondhand.
Starting point is 00:15:01 They almost never last. Buy new if you want it to last. And never, ever buy a secondhand electric blanket. It's a fine risk. Oh, yeah, I wouldn't be buying a secondhand electric blanket. Anything to do with the bed, you know, you've heard from me before. Like, I get it. Obviously, there's, you know, certain situations where people need to buy a secondhand mattress. But, like, I would rather buy anything else.
Starting point is 00:15:27 I think I was on secondhand mattresses until I was 25. But where did you buy them from? Usually the flat I was moving into. Like, the person moving out, they're like, and you could have my bed for $100. And I was like, yep, deal. And then you leave the bed that you had in the last flat. It's like a bed go-round.
Starting point is 00:15:44 No, gross. And then everyone shares all bed that you had in the last flat. It's like a bed go round. No, gross. And then everyone shares all the juices. Hey. Well, what do you think about it? A mattress. You put the mattress in the sun for the day. That'll do it, won't it? Kills all the bacteria.
Starting point is 00:15:54 I bought both my wedding dresses secondhand. One was $100 and from the 1960s it was vintage pink. That sounds awesome. And the other one was a $500 gold dress because I was pregnant and I didn't know which one would fit. Ended up wearing them both. It was perfect. I've worn them both several times for gala dinners over the last 10 years. That sounds
Starting point is 00:16:13 magical. Some people are much better at second hand shopping than other people. Some people really know how to get the, you know, the gems. My wife is good at it. I think it's also depending on what your body shape is and how big you are or how small you are because, like, it's not as easy for people.
Starting point is 00:16:32 If you have an uncommon body shape. Yeah, or, like, you know, someone like me, I'm 5'10", like a bigger lady. Like, they just don't have heaps of stuff like that secondhand. Well, stores don't, but secondhand might be more likely to, wouldn't it? They just don't make as many. Right, okay.
Starting point is 00:16:48 So there's not as many out there in circulation. That's what I've found anyway. Quickly, apart from beds, name one thing you wouldn't buy secondhand. Well, I wouldn't buy a mattress secondhand. I wouldn't buy towels. Yeah, yeah. Definitely wouldn't buy a towel secondhand. Toothbrush. Toothbrush, Toothbrush Oh what about electric toothbrush
Starting point is 00:17:07 You replace the head Have you seen the crusty stuff That eventually gets encrusted On the bottom of one of those Claudia you're not a snob like Brie What won't you buy second hand Oh see I think it's real low level The thing that I did buy
Starting point is 00:17:21 But I feel like you guys are going to think it's gross I've bought a couple pairs of socks, second hand. Oh, Claudia. Oh, Claude. Oh, no. Where from? Op shop. Oh, no. Really? I didn't think op shops took, I didn't think they took socks and undies. Me neither, but they were in like,
Starting point is 00:17:37 they definitely had been worn, but they were in good neck. I've tried to give over my undies heaps of times, they just keep telling me no. It's because there's holes in them. How like? Only when you hold them up to the light. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:53 I used to work in an op shop and someone bought something secondhand. Yeah. I didn't even know we sold it, but he bought undies. Wow. Yeah. They must have been a really good neck. Um. Oh.
Starting point is 00:18:02 The Kelvins or something? Nah. Well, everybody needs undies. Yeah, but you could buy. Everybody needs undies. There's cheap ones from the supermarket. Or Kmart have really affordable undies. Yeah. Probably the similar.
Starting point is 00:18:14 What? How much? Do you remember how much he paid? I have no clue. It's a good question. It would have had to be cheap. Yeah. No, not five bucks for secondhand undies.
Starting point is 00:18:23 Two dollars. Five for five. I'm paying 50 cents. And if they're white, and if they're white, I'm steering clear. You know what I love? I love using our national radio platform
Starting point is 00:18:37 to settle household disputes. Well, I guess it's an etiquette question too, isn't it? Yeah. And I feel like, what's better than surveying our entire audience? Ella, what's the question you want to ask about your flatting situation? How early is too early to get up and do your business, not being subconscious? Ones or twos?
Starting point is 00:19:02 I thought the same thing. You said your business. Well, go about your day without being careful and quiet. So like making breakfast. When can I wake up and just do my thing? So there needs to be a few questions asked first. First question, what day of the week are we talking? Good question.
Starting point is 00:19:18 Weekdays. Weekdays. Okay, all weekdays. Obviously weekends are sleeping. I'll be a bit more cautious. Okay, fair. So we're talking weekdays. And weekends of sleeping I'll be a bit more cautious. Okay, fair. So we're talking weekdays. And how much noise?
Starting point is 00:19:27 We're talking like toaster, maybe turn the extractor fan on, cook some eggs. Sure. Like I walk up and down the stairs. Yeah, right. Just live life. Just live life without worry about waking people up. Are you making a smoothie or anything? I'm laughing or giggling.
Starting point is 00:19:43 Talking to yourself. I think. Weekday. Yeah. Or a giggling. Talking to yourself. I think. Weekday. Yeah. Or a weekday. Shared living environment. Should we all say what we think? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:52 Yeah, good idea. Like the earliest time? Yeah, yeah. Is it noisy? The earliest time where you can actually make noise. Turn the radio on. TV on. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:01 That type of thing. Weekday. Three, two, one. Seven. Eight thirty. Oh. Seven? yeah. That type of thing. Weekday. Three, two, one. Seven. 8.30. Oh. Seven? Seven.
Starting point is 00:20:08 Damn. Seriously? Sun's up. Oh, that feels insanely early to me. Well, actually, I might change that in winter. Oh, yeah. I think it changes in winter a little bit. To what?
Starting point is 00:20:18 7.30. Well, the time you start work doesn't change in winter, so. Yeah, I know, but it's still dark. Seven to 7.30. What did you say, Claudia? 8.30. If I lived with you guys and you woke me up at 7, I would be livid.
Starting point is 00:20:30 On a weekday? Yes. On a weekend, 8.30, yeah? Like, I'll be up and about, but I won't be, like, turning on the blender and, like, doing all that stuff. When are you going to make your smoothie? Well, at 8.30. You know, when I used to flat, I had to get,
Starting point is 00:20:48 I was up really early doing breakfast radio and I used to go and make my smoothie outside. Oh, that's so considerate. I used to take my, and I'd run an extension cord that I'd pull out the window and I'd sit out in the yard. When we had little babies, my wife would take the NutriBullet into a cupboard and she would close the doors
Starting point is 00:21:09 and she would do her NutriBulleting inside the cupboard. Someone texted and said, depends on what time and shifts everyone in the house works. Yeah, sure, if you've got a house full of night shift workers, you need to adjust it. But we're talking about... My sister. We're just talking standard nine to five
Starting point is 00:21:25 workers. Yeah. Or someone, aka my sister, who doesn't do anything. Yeah. She can suck it. It's not my fault
Starting point is 00:21:32 you go to sleep at 4am. Yeah, she's 21. She can get with the program. What does your sister do? She's a student. If I was in that house, I would be making noise intentionally.
Starting point is 00:21:42 I do. Yeah. And Ryan and I giggle and like we're a cute couple. Did you ask what time she expects? What time does she expect you to stay quiet till? Did she say what time she expects? Well, I don't, to be honest, I don't know because at 2pm she comes upstairs shocked
Starting point is 00:21:56 that we're playing music. Two in the afternoon? So, yeah. Are you living with an owl? Well, that's what I thought. What is she up to? Are you living with an owl? That's what I thought. What is she up to? Are you living with a brown kiwi? She's starting some new sort of music in the underground music scene
Starting point is 00:22:12 and she's like literally just living her life at night time or something. That's exactly it. Wild. It is dangerous though, starting a not so silent war with someone you live with because she'll do it to you at the time she thinks is appropriate. She did! 2 a.m. on Saturday.
Starting point is 00:22:29 Oh, see, yeah. That is... Fights are being had. Anyway, 9696, just a little quick snap poll. Little poll. What time can you start making noise in the morning on a weekday? Bree and Clint. I love being right.
Starting point is 00:22:45 7 a.m. Relish. Yeah. Show's Clint. I love being right. 7am. Relish. Yeah. Shows brought to you by KFC. You can get a wicked box for $9.99 at KFC. Let's get the latest. From iHeartRadio, this is The Latest. Anyone here watching Beast Games?
Starting point is 00:22:58 Nah. That's the Mr. Beast Squid Games? Yeah, so Mr. Beast, obviously, famous YouTuber. He's got 362 million followers on YouTube, and the kids love him. He gets a lot of views on YouTube, and he's now created a TV show that I believe was about eight or ten episodes,
Starting point is 00:23:21 essentially like Squid Games, with the prize money at the end being a whopping $10 million. It's the biggest prize money on a game show ever. Does he have, like, sponsors? Where does he get all of the money from? I'm sure that there would have been. Yeah. Because this show was on Amazon Prime.
Starting point is 00:23:42 So obviously there would have been, you know, money coming in from all sides. But there's now a lot of talk about how much, I'm not going to do any spoilers if you are watching it about who wins because it is already over. But there's a lot of chat now around how much money the winner actually gets to take home versus what the total number was. Right, okay.
Starting point is 00:24:06 So obviously the prize money was $10 million. Turns out the winner will only receive just over $5 million of it. Why? The rest goes to taxes. Oh, that's so unfortunate. Doesn't that suck? Do you know there's no tax on prize money here in New Zealand? Is there not?
Starting point is 00:24:30 Yeah, there is in the States and New Zealand. It's like lotto. If you win the lotto, you don't get taxed on it. Tax free. I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure I'm not. There's no tax on what's called windfall gains. That's so good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:43 So Mr. Beast should have done Beast Games in New Zealand. Well, maybe he will. Maybe he should. Maybe he's gonna. Well, maybe he will. That would be great. I'd join. Well, I'd like that too.
Starting point is 00:24:55 Sweet. We'll all sign up for Beast Games Season 2. Bree and Clint. I saw this post on Reddit today where someone was looking for some advice. They're in a flatting situation. They said, I live in a flat of four people and we all share one shower. They said, I, to be clear, have very fancy shower products
Starting point is 00:25:14 because I only want to use nice products on my hair and body. Fair enough. So what I do is I put cheap shower products instead of mine in the shower so that they will think those are my shower products. Red herring. Yeah. The red herring in the shower.
Starting point is 00:25:31 Throw them off. Yeah, throw them off the scent. And she only brings out her products to shower. At first I was like, why even bother putting the cheap stuff in there? Because they'll obviously question where is her stuff. Anyway, my flatmates have figured out that this is what I do. Oh, no. And they've complained that I'm being weird and greedy with my own product.
Starting point is 00:25:55 What? And now I don't know if I'm the a-hole in this situation or not. Oh, no. Now it makes sense as to why she's doing it. I'm assuming it's a she. Yeah, I think it is a she. Because, I mean. it's a she. Yeah, I think it is a she. Because, I mean... Nice hair shampoo and... Yeah, most
Starting point is 00:26:08 men I know are happy with a two-in-one. Oh, mate, you've got to get into the three-in-one. I've seen the three-in-one now. Shampoo, body wash... Pee-oobs. Does all the hair. Do you know you can get a four-in-one? What's four-in-one? Shampoo, conditioner,
Starting point is 00:26:24 body wash, face wash. I got one. It was black. It said it had charcoal, activated charcoal technology on it. I remember one time where my brother and I were living together. Yeah, yeah. And we didn't share a bathroom, thank God. No.
Starting point is 00:26:40 And I, for some reason, had to shower in his shower. And I've used, there was one singular shower gel in his shower and I was like, this must be the body wash. I use this body wash on my whole body, my bits, my pits, everything. Yeah, yeah. It burns. Like the burning sensation. You've got to build up a tolerance over time.
Starting point is 00:27:04 It was fluoro green, but I said to him, I was like, do you enjoy that? I remember the fluoro green one. It was Lynx, wasn't it? It had something in it that actually like. It was called Lynx Hangover Over, and it was like toxic green, and the idea was that it was so invigorating that it would snap you out of a hangover.
Starting point is 00:27:24 It did not feel good in certain areas. I'll tell you that for free. Hiding your shower products is, I mean, it's your right, you know. It's up to you. It's not a nice way to have to live. I'm all for it, can I say? As someone who has
Starting point is 00:27:42 in the past spent money on good shampoo and conditioner, maybe not necessarily everything else, but, like, I don't want other people using it. They probably don't use it as sparingly as you do, right? No. And it's not when you buy really good shampoo and conditioner, you use a small amount. A tiny bit, yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:05 And then bloody Tom, Dick and Harry go in there and use everything on their Tom, Dick and Harry's. We once talked to someone on this show who admitted to keeping their pots, pans and plates in their bedroom. So when they cooked, they would bring everything they needed to cook and eat off out of their bedroom,
Starting point is 00:28:23 wash it and then take it back to their bedroom. See, that is too far. It is. But then in the meeting today, Claudia, our producer, revealed to us that she's keeping her knives in her bedroom. That's for other reasons. Yeah, that's for something else. They're actually not in my bedroom.
Starting point is 00:28:39 I've stashed them right at the back of my shelf on the pantry. So nobody can touch them. So no one uses your knives? No, I don't want them to touch them. What's so special about your knives? I just get really weird about like, this is how I've always flattered with people. I'm like, my stuff is my stuff.
Starting point is 00:28:52 Do not touch it because you're probably going to break it and then you're not going to replace it. I do get it with good knives. Yeah, someone's going to put them in the dishwasher. When I... Oh my God, I had the knives in the dishwasher fight with my wife just this morning. You don't put good knives in the dishwasher. When I Oh my god, I had the knives in the dishwasher fight with my wife just this morning. You don't put good knives in the dishwasher. She does.
Starting point is 00:29:08 She does. No. Especially if they've got a wood handle. She said to me today, she goes, ugh, all of our knives need sharpening. Because you put them in the dishwasher. And I said, yeah, I wonder why that is. And she goes, why? I said, because you put them in the dishwasher. She goes, that's an urban legend.
Starting point is 00:29:23 Oh. Like, yeah, they've gone blunt for a different reason. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. They went blunt from all the vegetables we've been cutting. Yeah, that'll do it. The problem is when you're flooding, though, is stuff does get ruined. It just does. It goes missing.
Starting point is 00:29:39 It gets thrashed. Or used up. You know, it gets thrashed because you think about it. In a family household, pots and pans and knives and that would get used maybe, you know, for one dinner. Whereas in a flat. Oh, my God, that's such a good point. It's getting used five, four dinners a night, you know.
Starting point is 00:29:58 Those things are getting a thrashing. 0800 dial ZM or text 9696. We want to know what are you hiding From the rest of your flatmates Or What did you catch One of your flatmates Hiding from you You busted them
Starting point is 00:30:13 With a secret stash of what Oh this is good My partner and I Have had this fight before Where I've actually Hitted my shampoo conditioner From your partner Yeah
Starting point is 00:30:23 You guys have got trust issues, man. It's not anymore. We want to know what are you hiding from your flatmates. We just talked about a girl who takes all of her shower products in and out of the shower every day so her flatmates can't use them. I get it, eh? Like she's at a campground. Flatting is and can be a bloody war zone.
Starting point is 00:30:47 Yeah, it can. Yeah, yeah. You know? Yeah. And it makes me not miss it, hearing stories like this. So we want to know what you're hiding from your flatmates. Hi, Ella. Hi, Ella.
Starting point is 00:30:56 What are you hiding? I used to hide two dirt bikes in my room from my flatmates so they wouldn't ride them up the stairs when they were having drinks. Two dirt bikes? What in the world? Yeah. Million questions for you, Ella. They were obviously your dirt bikes.
Starting point is 00:31:16 Yeah. And why are people riding the dirt bikes inside? I used to flat with five boys, so it got a bit rowdy. Yeah, that sounds sick. I like how that's an explanation for it. Oh, well, I lived with five boys. Oh, okay, that makes sense. Ella, could you not have just hidden the keys
Starting point is 00:31:34 instead of hiding the entire dirt bike? No, because they didn't have keys. Oh, they were Kickstarters. Yeah, yeah. How did you hide them? Like, did you hide them in the wardrobe or under the bed? No, I had to change the lock on my door and then put them in my room and lock the door.
Starting point is 00:31:54 And they're like, Ella, let us have the bikes. That is hectic. Ella, please. Also, Ella, hot. Girl that dirt bikes. Fun. Not just a girl that dirt bikes. She's got two in her room. That's awesome. Yeah, hot. Girl that dirt bikes. Fun. Not just a girl who dirt bikes. She's got two in her room.
Starting point is 00:32:08 That's awesome. Yeah, nice. Someone texted in and they said, I had a cat for three months from my flatmates. Worst three months of my life with the cat in my room. It constantly smelled like cat piss and cat food. Now she loves the outdoors. We live on a farm.
Starting point is 00:32:25 I bet. And she now never comes into my room. Yeah, that cat's traumatised. Yeah, the cat lived inside a tiny bedroom for three months. I've been like, why is there a distinct odour of cat piss and jelly meat coming from your room? And you're like, none of your business. That cat probably thought it got kidnapped.
Starting point is 00:32:43 And it's like, how do I get out of this situation? Tanya's here. Hi, Tanya. Hi, Tanya. Hi, how's it going kidnapped and it's like, how do I get out of this situation? Tanya's here. Hi, Tanya. Hi, Tanya. Hi, how's it going? Good, thank you, mate. Tell us what you hide from the flatmates. I can't really compete with Ella, but it's about my 20-year-old daughter. She's just come back from two years in London and moved into her first flat. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 00:32:59 She's going to uni in Dunedin. Yeah. She's got these really nice frying pans that she's bought to make Turkish eggs and stuff. She'll probably be hiding those because the rest of the flatmates have just arrived and they're leaving the kitchen a mess. They're using her butter, leaving it out, leaving all the dishes in the sink
Starting point is 00:33:16 and she'll be hiding her toiletries as well in a basket in her room. Tanya, I lived in a flat a few years ago and all my pots and pans completely destroyed. So if she doesn't want that to happen, yeah, hide them under the bed. I know.
Starting point is 00:33:31 No one looks after them like you do, right? She clearly likes nice things. I feel like she's at the stage of life where she just has to have shit things if she wants them to survive, but that's not really fair. She's obviously been in London too long, Tanya. She'd eat the good, panned, cooked Turkish eggs. Well, she long, Tanya. She needs a good pan to cook Turkish eggs. Well, she was living in a hostel, so she didn't have to cook.
Starting point is 00:33:49 She's the fanciest 20-year-old in Dunedin, Tanya. You've raised a good girl there. She's going to make a shashuka at home. Yeah, yeah. Someone texted her and they said, my flatmates never used to buy any household staples. I used to keep toilet paper in my bedroom and take the roll to and from when I needed to go. It didn't take long for them to catch on and they started buying their own toilet paper.
Starting point is 00:34:15 That does irk you when you're flatting, when you always seem to be the person buying dishwashing detergent. Yeah, that lacks a flat account. Yeah. You need a flat account. Yeah. You need a flat account and an EFTPOS card and one person to be in charge of it. Ben's here. G'day, Ben. Hi, Ben. How's it going?
Starting point is 00:34:32 What are you hiding from your flatmates, Ben? I'm hiding a Dyson vacuum cleaner. Good decision, Ben. Good decision. How long have you kept it on the down low? About eight months. I've seen me use it once or twice. Do you vacuum the whole house with it or just your room?
Starting point is 00:34:52 Just my room. Wow. Yeah, you don't want to be picking up all their toenails in the living room. Exactly. I went to use it once, and the state of the floor at which I was trying to vacuum, I decided to just use the flat vacuum for everywhere else and keep a nice one for me. That's hilarious.
Starting point is 00:35:10 What are you worried that your flatmates are going to do to your Dyson? I suck up something that it shouldn't, bottle caps or... I thought you said something else there, Ben. No, no, no, no. Do you live with girls else there, Ben. No, no, no, no. Don't worry about that. Do you live with girls? Yes. Yeah, because I mean... Can't trust them.
Starting point is 00:35:30 The hair gets caught. Yeah, it gets wrapped around the thing. There's a lot of hair. Those women, Ben, I tell you, those women drop a lot of hair. They molt everywhere. You're telling me. Yeah, mate. You've got to look after your things.
Starting point is 00:35:42 Good on you, Ben. He's a very clean man. This text is quite good. When I was flatting, I would take all of my makeup to work with me as the other girl we flattered with would just help herself to it. And it wasn't cheap stuff. I lasted three months until I got so sick of it. Ew.
Starting point is 00:36:00 I'd be furious. Yeah. Like, you're not my sister. Unless it was her sister. unless it was her sister. Unless it was your sister. Like, if you're not my blood relation. And you're using my mascara. You're using my mascara.
Starting point is 00:36:13 I don't want to get your pink eye, all right? Just before we were talking about the things that you're hiding from your flatmates, a couple more texts, someone said, flatmates, my wife is constantly hiding makeup and accessories from our 15-year-old daughter. Yeah, that happens. That happens in family households. What about this one?
Starting point is 00:36:34 My flatmate hid a person in her room for a month. She would only come and go from the room when no one was home. A month! Did you guys have any idea? I wonder if that was the same person that had the cat in the room when no one was home. A month! Did you guys have any idea? I wonder if that was the same person that had the cat in the room as well. You'd need non-sweet, eh? Absolutely you would. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:53 Or a bucket. Or a bucket. Or like a sheet with two eye holes cut in it and then in the middle of the night if that person needs to go to the toilet they've got to go down the hallway going, ooh, don't come out, I'm a spooky ghost. That would solve it. It would, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:37:09 You know? Then you can get away with it because, I mean, who's going to argue? Who's going to come out and argue with a ghost? No. Exactly right. Yeah. See, there's a solution to everything. If you think you know who's going to win this week's round of Let's Get Classical,
Starting point is 00:37:23 Team Bree and Clint or Team Ella and Ella, text it to 9696 right now. I believe we had a win last week, Clint. I believe we are. I believe. I gave it to you. I believe we are high on the hold. Nah, I gave it to you. Bree and Clint.
Starting point is 00:37:39 Let's Get Classical. Our game where we guess songs in classical style. The AI version. Claudia gets pop songs and the vinyl remixed. I guess they've been de-mixed, haven't they? Yes, they have. Into classical form. Piano versions, harpsichord versions.
Starting point is 00:38:02 Oh, I should find a harpsichord. We should have a full harpsichord round. Oh, I should find a harpsichord. We should have a full harpsichord round. That'd be nice. Oboes. Sorry, I thought we were saying instruments. Triangle. A triangle. Should I play it on a triangle? A triangle round would be hard. Clarinet. Bree and I team up to

So this is Let's Get Classical. Like you said, it's pop songs turned classical style and you guys are guessing what they are. Current score, we're all tied up for the
Starting point is 00:38:33 year. Two apiece. Ooh. This is a saucy one. The decider. This is a big one and I feel like Ella's already grumpy about it. I'm not grumpy. I just hate how much I care about this. I feel like she's coming into it with a bad attitude. I'm not bad attitude. I'm just being quiet.
Starting point is 00:38:48 Don't let it get to you. What you asked for. I think you need a bit of an attitude check. Oh, don't give that to me. I think you need to check yourself before you wreck yourself. Oh, you can check yourself, Mr. Clint Roberts. All the buttons. Okay, we all know the rules.
Starting point is 00:38:59 Buzz in with your name. Check the tood, dude. Are you done? You should have stopped. Do you want to let Claudia? Yeah, that was the gay cool man. Hey, you've made our team uncool. Yeah, dude. Are you done? You should have stopped. Do you want to let Claudia? You've made our team uncool. Yeah, sorry.

You got it. Oh, that was your wheelhouse. It's like I came over to your house and took a poo in your living room. She ate your lunch with that one.
Starting point is 00:39:42 Oh, that's what I meant. That was, I got the sayings mixed up. That's the phrasing she was looking for. Yes, well done. Okay. Begrudgingly. One point to Bree and Clint. Here's another one.
Starting point is 00:39:58 Ooh. Ah. She's going to get it. Oh, Ellen! Brie! Oh, I've got it. I'm all over it if you don't know. Bad romance, Lady Gaga. You got it. You just came over to my house and took a poo in my living room.
Starting point is 00:40:22 Yeah, I did. That was your lunch. That was my wheelhouse. I was right there. Brie, in pride month. I know. Of all months and you don't get it. That's pretty homophobic for me, to be honest.
Starting point is 00:40:36 Not proud of myself. Okay, there's still time for redemption. We've got a game on our hands. This is the last song, so whoever gets this is the winner. Good luck. Ella! Oh, Ella. I know it, I know it.
Starting point is 00:40:51 Same. Three, two, one. You go. No, I've only got the words. I can't hear the name of the song yet. It's going to be a guess. We may as well guess. Do a leaper. a guess. Yeah. Well, we may as well guess. Three. Dua Lipa.
Starting point is 00:41:05 Mm-hmm, mm-hmm, mm-hmm. Two. One Kiss. Yes. Yes! One kiss is all it takes. Falling in love with you. As soon as you said Dua Lipa, I knew it was Dua Lipa, yeah.
Starting point is 00:41:13 The tears fall. Because the line went, and you say that you don't want to say no. Say listen, listen, listen. Shut up. No, no, no, no. Let me love you while the moon is still red. I don't even know the words to that song.
Starting point is 00:41:31 Yeah. Did we just win the tie break? Bonus point for the other artist on the song. That's the winner. No, it's Calvin Harris. Oh, that feels good. And Maddie, because you backed us, that means you win 50 KFC chicken dollars. You are welcome.
Starting point is 00:41:52 It's all about having a good attitude, eh, Maddie? Yeah, definitely. Yeah. Just being humble, you know? You guys are the most annoying competitors. So annoying. Watch this. Watch this.
Starting point is 00:42:06 Watch this. I just drowned out the haters. So funny. Oh, they're back. Bree and Clint. Just checking no one got broken up with last Friday on Valentine's Day from the show. Anyone? No, my marriage is still intact.
Starting point is 00:42:23 Oh, good. Thankfully. Good. Anyone? Ella? Anyone? No, my marriage is still intact. Oh, good. Thankfully. Good. Anyone? Ella? Ella? No, engagement's still on. Still got a fiancé? Yeah, we're good. We're broken. Claudia's single, so
Starting point is 00:42:35 no one broke up with her. Nah, still single. And it was before Valentine's. Yeah. You didn't get broken up with on Valentine's Day. Because that would be horrible. There's many other days that are better to break up with someone than on Valentine's Day.
Starting point is 00:42:53 What's a good day to get broken up on? Any day that, I feel like there's heaps of good days to get broken up with. Yeah. Well, not good days, but days that are better than other days. Yeah, right. Like Christmas Day. Is it no-no? No, no, there's no good days, but days that are better than other days. Yeah, right. Like Christmas Day. Is it no-no? No, no, there's no good days, but there are worse days.
Starting point is 00:43:09 There's worse days. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, that's what I meant to say. Your birthday. Birthday is a doozy. It might be the worst. It might be the worst. Do you reckon it's the worst?
Starting point is 00:43:21 Oh, your wedding day would be pretty bad. Yeah, I mean, that'd be pretty horrible. Because the guests are here. They're on their way. Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Birthday's pretty horrible. I asked you the question because there is an Olympian runner
Starting point is 00:43:38 by the name of Lauren Ryan who has made headlines in the last couple of days after her boyfriend dumped her, get this, one, on Valentine's Day, and two, the day before one of the biggest races of her career. Right? There's some audio of her, so spoiler alert, he broke up with her on Valentineentine's day the day before this huge race she comes back the next day and wins the whole thing wow and they interview her afterwards
Starting point is 00:44:15 and this is what she says big kick at the end where did that come from i got a bit of fuel running and starting at the moment um yeah i just wanted the win so bad. I've just had a tough run the last couple of months with some family stuff. And yeah, my boyfriend broke up with me yesterday, so. On Valentine's Day? Yeah, just wanted the win. She used it as fuel. Oh, mate.
Starting point is 00:44:36 I love that. There is nothing like revenge. She was running on pure hatred. Hatred and revenge are some of the most powerful forms of motivation you can get. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like you think about it, the hottest that all of us have ever been in our whole lives.
Starting point is 00:44:54 Just after a breakup. Is just after a breakup. Because nothing fuels you more. Than the need to get back on top. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, no, no, it's human nature. You know, just human nature, these things. But it usually takes time.
Starting point is 00:45:08 Like, people don't get ripped the day after a breakup. They do a bit of track pants time. They do a bit of takeaway time, a bit of Uber Eats time. Oh, you go through the stages of mourning. The seven stages of breakup. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. She, the very next day, is like, all right, well,
Starting point is 00:45:24 time to be the best version of myself ever. Yeah, she's like, put that in your pipe and smoke it, you know. I wanted to put it out there on 0800DIALSATM and ask you guys, have you been broken up on a worse day? You know, like it could have been maybe you just travelled with your family to go on a family holiday and someone broke up with you on a family holiday. Or like this text. My ex-partner broke up with me four days before I found out that I was eight weeks pregnant.
Starting point is 00:45:58 Not the best timing for sure. Wow. Wow. That is a worst day. That would have been such a rollercoaster week for sure. Wow. Wow. That is a worst day. That would have been such a rollercoaster week for you. That is pretty damn bad. Let's put it out there though. 0800 dial ZM or you can text us on 9696.
Starting point is 00:46:16 When did someone break up with you and it was horrible timing? Bree and Clint. We're asking you about times you've been broken up with Inopportune moments That was a horrible time Yeah, yeah, yeah Like there's obviously no good time to be broken up with But there's definitely worse days to do it than others
Starting point is 00:46:36 We just heard from an Olympic runner Who got broken up with the day before the biggest race of her career And then she went on to win the race It was also Valentine's Day Oh, it was also Valentine's Day It was a double whammy Yeah, And then she went on to win the race. It was also Valentine's Day. Oh, it was also Valentine's Day. It was a double whammy. Yeah, and then she went on to win, fueled by pure revenge in her heart.
Starting point is 00:46:51 So we want to know, how bad was the timing of the breakup? Alison's here. Hi, Alison. Hi, Alison. Hi, guys. Was it you that got broken up with Alison or did you do the breaking up?
Starting point is 00:47:03 I got broken up with. We'd been together for two and a half years and he'd moved over from America to be with me. Wow. Pretty big commitment. Huge. But it was going awesome, or so I thought. So we had Christmas dinner with our family,
Starting point is 00:47:18 but we do it Christmas Eve. So we'd have the dinner, the presents, all the goodies. He scooped it all up. We went home and he's like, I'm done. He waited until after family Christmas to do it. Yeah, so 11 o'clock on like 11 o'clock Christmas Eve. Which is essentially Christmas because you guys do Christmas on Christmas Eve. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:47:38 Can I ask Alison? Yeah. Here's a question. What did he get you for Christmas? I think I got an electric blanket. Yeah, well, that was the first sign. You should have known. Yeah, you should have known.
Starting point is 00:47:51 He's like, you're going to need to keep the bed warm without me. You're better off, Alison. Yeah. Thanks, Alison. We appreciate it. So many ticks coming in on this. Someone said, I was broken up with by my first girlfriend three days before my best friend passed away from cancer, which was a week before my end of year exams in my second year of university,
Starting point is 00:48:10 which also happened to be the same month that my grandfather passed away. It's pretty bad. It just keeps going. It's pretty bad. To be fair to the girlfriend, she broke up with you before all that stuff happened. Yeah. Three days before, you know? Like you can't put the, you can't put it all on the girlfriend.
Starting point is 00:48:29 Yeah, exactly. Yeah. What if they broke up with you three days after all that stuff? That'd be different. Okay. Speak of. What about this one? My ex broke up with me mere hours after my dad died because my communication was off.
Starting point is 00:48:44 And yes, he knew about my dad. No, there is absolutely no excuse for that one. God, see that's where a good you're warranted to kick him right in the private bits, you know, you're allowed. Just once, just once swiftly.
Starting point is 00:49:00 Lily's here, hi Lily. Hi Lily. Hi. Bad breakup time, when did it happen? Um, it also happened on Valentine's here. Hi, Lily. Hi, Lily. Hi. Bad breakup time? When did it happen? Um, it also happened on Valentine's Day. Wait, when? What Valentine's Day? The one that just came. Oh my god, five days ago.
Starting point is 00:49:17 Oh, Lily, that sucks. How did the person you were dating, how did they do it? How did they go about it on Valentine's Day? So what makes it worse than just being on Valentine's Day was it was over-tipped. I completely didn't see it coming. I was also in the hospital emergency room at the time. And today would have been our anniversary.
Starting point is 00:49:46 Oh, for how many years? Oh, only two months. Oh, okay. Two months. I was like that. Lily, that sucks. It doesn't take away from me at all. That really sucks. It doesn't. That's horrible. I broke up with my partner 24 hours before their grandparent passed away. Again,
Starting point is 00:50:02 24 hours before. Before. Before. Get in before it happens. This one is so good. They said, my partner was broken up with at the start of a Beyonce concert on her one-year anniversary with her girlfriend. They still went to the concert. Together. I reckon, I'm picturing that they were at the concert.
Starting point is 00:50:24 Yeah. And they were, the concert. Yeah. And they were, you know, when you're waiting for Beyonce to come out, like, you know, everyone's kind of getting restless. And they're like, where are we going? And I reckon they broke up there and then they stayed and sat through, you know, the Beyonce concert after the breakup. Can you imagine how hard that person who just got dumped would have sung Irreplaceable when it came on? To the left, to the breakup. Can you imagine how hard that person who just got dumped would have sung Irreplaceable when it came on?
Starting point is 00:50:47 To the left, to the left. Fight breaks out in the mosh pit. I got dumped the morning of Christmas last year. I woke up to a note saying, I can't do this. I can confirm I will never date a male species ever again. Hey, wait, wait, wait. Don't write all men off because of that guy. Okay?
Starting point is 00:51:06 That's how it happens. We were married. We broke up right after we moved into the house that we had built together right before our son's first birthday and while my nana was dying of cancer he's still with the girl he didn't cheat with six years later. God, that
Starting point is 00:51:22 had everything, that one. That did. That had the whole kit and caboodle, didn't it? That That did, that had the whole kitchen caboodle, didn't it? The kitchen sink was in there Last one's Anonymous, hi Anonymous Hi Anonymous How you doing? Good, thanks This is about your brother and his wife
Starting point is 00:51:37 Yes Back COVID when you had to, they made you self-isolate when you got back from overseas. Yes. Being back in the country for
Starting point is 00:51:51 one day self-isolating at home together. She tells them that she's done. And then they've got to do two weeks in this house together. Exactly. Oh, that's a bad time. We've got a dodgy phone line there, Anonymous, but that is awful.
Starting point is 00:52:08 So essentially what I got is they came back, had to self-isolate, and she told... You break up on day 14, not day one. Yeah, she told him on day one, I'm done. Let me just read this last one, because I think it might be exactly what we're talking about. Badly timed breakups. My ex broke up with me two weeks After I had a really bad burn
Starting point is 00:52:28 Accident I had second degree burns to over 10% Of my body and I was in a lot of pain The thing is I got the burns when I fell backwards Onto his log burner Trying on some sexy lingerie For the night
Starting point is 00:52:43 And then he broke up with you When you got covered in burns burner, trying on some sexy lingerie for the night. And what? And then he broke up with her? And then he broke up with you. When you got covered in burns from putting on lingerie to impress him. I'd be furious. Like we said, there's no good time to be broken up with. No, but there's definitely worse times. So just think about that if you're about to break up with someone. Let's do a birthday banger. Bree and Clint. All I want for my birthday is a

Starting point is 01:00:14 first show you watch and then but I mean the episodes are so long. They're so long and they just repeat so much crap in them. But you barely get to watch anything else. And they've lost like a third of the couples now. They're going to add some more people in soon, I reckon. Oh, I forgot that they do that.
Starting point is 01:00:29 Remember they do that? They do a top up, eh? Yeah. And they try and bring someone in who's going to do like a cheating scandal. Yeah. Try and hook up, throw a cat amongst the pigeons. That'll be good. Yeah.
