Every year you get a new car. Yeah, and I'm like, no, my life would be better if you get a new car and I'm like no my life would be better if I had a new car and I went to this dealership and I drove in and I went into my wife's car took that in it's just a Hyundai and I was talking away to the guy

and he goes wait you're Clint off the radio and I went yeah yeah I am he goes listen to you guys I knew that voice I knew I knew I knew your voice I was like yeah yeah yeah that's me he goes haven't you got an Audi why are you driving

a Hyundai don't you drive an Audi I love it for the record my marketing has finally taken off for the record I don't and haven't driven an Audi for about a year but the but you about a year, but the smear campaign you ran on me has gone so far now. Smear campaign? It was 100%

true. That's a good point. How is that a smear campaign? Anyway, he was very shocked. He's like, don't you drive an Audi? I was like, shh, keep it down. I'm interested, what car did you test drive? Yeah, that's what I want to know.

A none of you business car. Was it a Tesla? What was it? It's just a family car. No, what was it? A van? Porsche. A van?

A BMW X5? What is good? BMW X5? Right! Just there. A big gas guzzling machine? Yeah. I think they're hybrids.

I think it's a hybrid. Yeah, maybe if you've got 200K. Yeah. Or more, I reckon. Oh, my gosh. It's not one of those, okay? Oh, come on. An older one.

It's a secondhand one. Where they didn't make hybrids. It doesn't matter. It's got a five-star safety rating. That's all that matters. As a father, I'm really environment i'm duty bound i'm duty bound to put my family in the safest car possible so i kind of have to buy like my hands are tied my hands are tied my uncle um i think they know they got rid of it so they had a x5 yeah um and i remember listening to this conversation where my dad's like, oh, how's the new car going?

Because my dad had just bought a Subaru WRX. It was like quite a few years ago. Yeah. And I remember listening to my uncle going, yeah, it's great, but I've never spent more money on fuel in my life. And I was like, shit. How much does it cost? Gas is cheap at the moment, though, isn't it? Yeah, it's cheap.

It's coming down. It's cheap. It's coming down? It's coming down. The prices are only going to get lower is what I've heard. Oh, great. Yeah, that's what they're saying about this year. The price of everything this year is meant to come down.

Why? Aren't they saying economically it's a good time to be out buying things like new cars? That's what they say, yeah. Yeah, I thought so. I want a big, like a, I like being up high. So I was thinking like a truck or a RAV4 or something. A truck or a RAV4, very different vehicles. Well, I want to be up high.

Just like a big. Up high, like any small SUV, you can achieve that. Like my car, I feel like. Get a booster seat. Like I drive just a humble old Mitsubishi. No, you're misunderstanding her, Brie. What she's saying is she would like to finally see over the steering wheel. I'll put a booster seat on my Swift and you can just go to Chester.

Well, you've got to get a car that has that feature where it boosts you up. Go away. Sit on your dad's lap. This is how you learn to drive. Come on. This is how I learn to drive. He does the pedals. You do the steering. My mum would always be like, sit on my lap you learn to drive. Come on. This is how I learn to drive. He does the pedals. You do the steering.

My mum would always be like, sit on my lap and you can drive up the driveway. Yeah. I've had a few Roses. I've had a few Rases. Can you drive? Don't worry, officer. I'm just doing the pedals. I'm doing the hard part.

She's just steering. Actually, I was right if I could do that. Sit on his lap and do that. Pardon me? No, in the car. Don't have dirty minds. I asked if I could do that, sit on his lap and do that. Pardon me? No, in the car, don't have dirty minds. I asked if I could. In the car. Something about the gear shifter.

No, I'm serious. How did you manoeuvre over the gear shifter? Something about the handbrake. He wouldn't let me. He wouldn't let me. He was like, no, I'm driving. You're not sitting on my lap and doing the steering wheel. That's just.

You need to stop talking. You guys have filthy minds Just yesterday She said her New Year's resolution was to think before she talked And she hasn't achieved that today It's always tomorrow Ella You're not nice That's what I always tell myself

What part of that story do we misconstrue Much like me with the Audi You said you wanted to sit on your boyfriend's lap while he was driving the car. And do the steering wheel. We didn't take anything. What do you mean much like you with the Audi? You had an Audi.

That's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. There was no details. There was no details that were misconstrued. That were misconstrued. Yeah, I just wanted to, anyway. Nothing inappropriate. Stop asking her again.

Nothing inappropriate, man. Nah, man. Speaking of, has anyone ever done it in a car? No. Okay, time to go. All right, let's wrap it up. I've got a pre-purchase inspection to get to. Let's get out of here.

I'm coming in. Well, howdy, pilgrims. ZDM's Bree and Clint on the early shift. That's us. What's going on, everybody? Good morning, Bree and Clint. Good to be here. Good morning, guys.

Just in the news there, I'm so excited for the Women's Football World Cup. And it's here. It's right here in New Zealand. Like, get out and support the football ferns. They're taking on USA this weekend, Saturday. I'm so pumped for it. This is awesome to have it here in New Zealand. Good news is you don't even have to take down the rugby post. They just kick

it under the bar, that little box beneath the post. Yeah, that's how it works. Totally. I'm going to go. Yep. Oh yeah, I've always, like, I mean, to go to a woman's or just a football World Cup in general, like, what a great opportunity. The Americans are the world champions, right?

Oh, America, I mean, tough first game for the football ferns. This isn't the World Cup, though, eh? What? This game today. On Saturday? Yeah. No, today. Isn't it today?

Oh, is there a game today? I thought that's what the news said the game was today. Oh, well, I know the football ferns play USA this Saturday. Right, but that's not the World Cup, right? Yeah. Is the World Cup, right? Yeah. Is the World Cup just starting? Where's all the fanfare? I'm pretty sure.

Where's the opening ceremony? Yeah, I know. Where's Rita Ora? Yeah, bring Rita back. Where's Rita? I don't think you could open the World Cup without a performance from Rita Ora. I see how it is. You know, she does one thing and then she thinks she's done.

You know, come on. That's the deal, Reets. Okay, you want to date Taika, we're going to need you to do all of our opening ceremonies from here on out.

America's Cups, there'll be some cricket. We're going to get you involved. Just all the events. What's she doing for the Black Clash later this week? I'm playing in a

social netball competition at the moment and I'd love for her to come down for the final. Okay, everybody, let's get into it this week. I'm playing in a social netball competition at the moment and I'd love for her to come down for the final. Okay everybody, let's get into it this morning. We're going to kick things off with tradie versus lady. We've got 50 bucks up for grabs. The year has begun

The ladies yet to get on the board. Let's go to our lady first. She's calling from Wellington. She's 45. She plays hockey and is bad at quizzes. Well, that's not going to bode well for you today, Steph. Morning. Morning, Steph.

Morning. I like it. Reverse psychology. I get what you're doing. Yeah, morning. Morning, Steph. Morning. I like it. Reverse psychology. I get what you're doing. Yeah, yeah. If they're my questions, they're my questions. But if they're not, we're in trouble, ladies. Yeah.

Steph, I like it. All right, ladies, let's go to our tradie. Under promise and then over deliver. He's calling in from Christchurch. He's 34 and he is an avid golfer. Welcome to the show, Johnny. G'day, Johnny. What's the handicap you're on, mate?

Oh, 13. Oh, pretty good. G'day, man. Pretty good. Pretty good. Pretty good. Brett, I have no idea what a good handicap is. But we think that sounds pretty good.

Pretty good. Johnny, your buzzer is tradie. Steph, your buzzer is lady. Whoever gives three correct answers first will win $50 cash this morning and the title of tradie versus lady champion for the day. Here we go, guys. Question number one. Stars and stripes is the nickname of the flag.

Yes, Steph. American. Wow. You are off to a good start. Wow, she is. I said I wasn't good. I maybe have come in. She's an eager beaver.

The rest of the question for people playing at home was the nickname of the flag of which country, which is, of course, America. Question number two. Christchurch have begun construction on their new stadium. Yes. Johnny. Don't even know the question, Johnny. I'll hear you on the name.

No, no, no. I'll pass on that one. We're not actually looking for the name of the stadium. We'll complete the question. Yeah, we'll just complete the question. Okay. I mean, unless Steph wants to stab at it. No, I'm not stabbing at that early.

Crikey. We'll go for the whole question. So they've begun construction of their new stadium. Unless Steph wants to stab at it. No, I'm not stabbing at that early. We'll go for the Hulk question. So they've begun construction of their new stadium, finally. Name the super rugby team that will call that ground. Brady. Yes, Johnny. Crusaders. Did you know that one, Steph?

Oh, I did, but I didn't think he could buzz in because he just called in too early last time. Yeah, well, we offered you a free guess and you turned it down, so that's why he was allowed to play again. That's our bad, Steph. All right, here we go. We're one apiece. Question number three. Buzz in when you can tell me who sings this song.

Trader. Trader. Johnny. Benny. Well done. That is Benny. Well done. That is Benny, of course, from New Zealand. So you should know it. Question number four.

I saw she was kicking around all the festivals and stuff. As a punter? No, no, no, no, no. She was performing and stuff. And all these people were like, she's crazy. She's wild. She did such a good performance at the final of the Women's Rugby World Cup. Yeah, she's very good.

So good. Question number four. Gisborne residents are being warned to brace for more bad weather today. What coast of the North... Lady. Yes, Steph? A cyclone. You want the name?

No, we kind of got to the start of the question. Do you want to have a stab at it, Johnny? East Coast. Yeah, well done. That's the game. He's taking it, yeah. He's taking it. Oh, yeah.

Nice win, Johnny. Very good game. But Steph, I think she can shoot you full back tomorrow. Two very eager beavers. I like it. You've got to be in quick. Two premature answerers. Two very eager beavers. I like it. You've got to be in quick. Two premature answerers. You've got to be in it to win it.

Nice work. $50 coming your way, Johnny. Have a good day, mate. Cool. Thank you. Yeah, little Johnny. Have a good day, man. All right.

Thank you. Bree and Clint. We getting ripped this year? Are we exercising? We getting physical? This year. You know I'm on that 5k a day, baby. We're getting ripped tonight.

This is good news for anyone who is keen but doesn't want to do the work. Because that's the hardest bit, eh? Mate, I've already got those vibrating platforms. I sit on them all the time. It's not helping. It just shakes my love handles around.

You're sitting on your vibrating platform? Yeah, you can sit on them. I think you're meant to stand on it. Well, sometimes if you want a bit of extra fun. Sounds like you're using it for different purposes. Well, I'm not a stander. I'm a sitter. That's how lazy I am.

I love my vibratrain. Have you? Oh, my gosh. I've. I love my VibraTrain. Have you? Oh my gosh. It's done nothing for my physical well-being. But I feel great. I feel fantastic. Well, that's one way of going about it. Yep, sit on the VibraTrain.

This one, this is information from an actual university, by the way. I haven't made this up. You might only need to exercise for 60 seconds at a time. Oh, no, wrong one. No, right. There it is. 60 seconds. What do you mean?

60 seconds. Researchers from the University of Sydney. That's good news for you. Babe, the university says 60 seconds is plenty. No, it's fine. You get your heart rate up and you're good to go. Researchers from the University of Sydney have reported that just three to four one-minute bursts of huffing and puffing, so getting your heart rate up, during daily tasks have been linked with large reductions in the risk of early death,

in particular, heart disease. And that's really what we're exercising for, right? It's for health. Yeah. Stop being so vain and thinking it's for muscles and abs. You should be thinking about your cardiovascular fitness and your risk of mortality. You should be trying to stay alive with your exercise.

Jeez, morbid chat for the morning. No, it's good. Does it include, like, trying to carry every single grocery bag into the car? Like that would be like a short burst of exertion. Yes, it does. If you do it enough to get your heart rate up, like because it's a very short journey from the boot of your car to your kitchen, if you did...

But I mean, it's stressful. But it's heavy. If you picked up the pace and did four laps of your car and then into the kitchen and put them down, you might get 60 seconds. You know? You've just got to hit that number. You've just got to get to that 60 seconds.

You could vacuum faster. I'm thinking of ways you could work it into your day. Speed vacuum. Because the other thing about exercising is you've got to go, oh, I've got to go and do it. But if you found a way to just do it with stuff you're already doing. So like, for example, like right now,

if I just got up and I just started running around the studio. Yes, yeah, yeah. I guess I'm still going. Yeah, I'll start the timer. Yeah. Tell me when it's a minute up.

Well, we'll do 60 seconds. Okay. And then you can see what your heart rate feels like. What a time. Yeah. While she's doing that, other ways you could do it,. Well, we'll do 60 seconds. Okay. And then you can see what your heart rate feels like. What time? Yeah. While she's doing that, other ways you could do it, you could jog on the spot.

Well, Bree's already doing that. You could take the stairs. I'm picking up the pace. At work. Keep going, mate. Keep going. Is this a minute? No, you're at 25 seconds. You're kidding me. Are you joking? No, you're at 30. You You're kidding me. Are you joking? No, you're at 30. You're at 30 seconds.

Oh my God, I'm so unfit. Just so you know, it's called Vigorous Intermittent Lifestyle Physical Activity or VILPA. And if you do it, it's associated with a 40% reduction, keep going, in cancer-related mortality and up to 49% reduction in death related to cardiovascular disease.

You've got 10 seconds. Five, four, three, two, one. You're done. Is any of you a vilpa? I feel really... Yeah. It's not worth it. So you've just got to do that three to four times a day

and you're good to go. Look how unfit I am. It's shocking. I'm not exaggerating at all. Maybe it's your running sandals. Maybe it wasn't the best choice of footwear. The Birkenstocks hurt quite a lot, actually. A lot of reality shows coming back at the moment,

and I noticed something that's on TVNZ Plus is The Bachelors, the Aussie Bachelor, but it's called The Bachelors because there's three of them. Oh, wow. And they've totally changed the format. It's all new and it's all crazy. Three bachelors all dating the same bachelorettes? No.

All dating different bachelorettes? All dating different, but they can... They're going to merge the groups. But they can jump ship if they want. I reckon they'll merge groups. There'll be a big plot twist. Yeah. They'll go, time for you to have a new bachelor.

And now we're all going to swap. No. All the bachelors are super different, which is probably why they're all dating different women. There's the older bachelor who's like this Italian stallion. He's very sensitive and very sweet. How old? He's 35.

He's one of the oldest bachelors on the show ever, I think. Really? At 35? Which I was like, that's not old. Yeah, that's what I keep saying. Is it? Anyway, and then they've got this other big meathead dude that's into sport and just is on heat the whole time. Okay.

And then they've got this other guy called Jed, who is like the eclectic musician. Sensitive soul? Sensitive soul. Oh, yeah. But he kind of reminds me of Machine Gun Kelly, like to look at, but he's very sensitive and very like into his music. But he's a drummer, right?

Right. And I caught this episode where he's taken one of the girls on a single date and I'm just like. Was it a good date? Look, I think it was one of the strangest dates. Like if I went on it, I'd be worried for my safety. Okay. At the beginning of the date just because I'm going to play you what it sounds like.

Yeah. Without seeing pictures to what's happening, it sounds even weirder. Take a listen. She's special to me. So I've asked her to meet me in the middle of a forest. Hopefully she finds where it is. I couldn't think of a better date. I'm very excited.

I see smoke. I want to show her that it's not just me whacking a bunch of stuff. The drums help me bring out the essence of who Jed really is. Oh, my God. That was amazing. Has he taken her to play drums in the forest? So picture this. It's pitch black.

He's set up his drums in the middle of this random forest. They've got the smoke machines happening. There's lights. And she has to walk through this forest and she can't find where it is and she's trying to find him. And as she finds him and the trees kind of open up, he just starts playing the drums and going nuts. First of all, the forest walk,

nothing like feeling like you're going to get murdered to really heighten the excitement on a date. It looked real creepy. Second of all, take the forest away. Imagine any date where the guy wants to show you how good he is at playing the drums. Watch me whack some stuff. You know? That was it.

That's what you do as teenagers. You're like, come around to my house and watch me play drums. I'm real good. I'm real good. Or just any date where someone says, meet me in the forest. I'm going to say, I don't know you very well Let's meet at a cafe first It's a very one-sided date

If they're just watching you play the drums too You can't even talk He then taught her some stuff So it wasn't just playing the drums the whole time But quite a strange date Quite a strange date I thought we could ask people You can call us 0800DIALZM or you can text us on 9696.

We can leave your name out of it. But if you've been on a date that was just quite strange and maybe it was due to the place you went to, the activity they chose. The thing that the person wore. We talked to somebody last year, you'll remember this, who matched with someone on Tinder. They found out that their

mutual interest was NRL, Rugby League. So she went on a date with him to a fancy restaurant and as they sat down, he whipped out his iPad and put the Rugby League on and put it on the table in the middle of their date. That's the phone

calls I want to get. Like have you been on a date like that where something weird, strange just kind of happened? Not necessarily horrible. It doesn't have to be bad. Maybe you're still with the person. But call us now 0800 dial ZM or you can text us on 9696. What was the

strangest date you've been on? Brianne Clint. Someone texted her and they said, first ever Tinder date resulted in us walking through Repco for an hour. That was the last date. I love Repco, but I know it's not a place to

take a first date. You don't take someone to Repco. Unless she said she needed wiper blades. No. In which case you're like, I can help you in this situation. Someone else said, I had organised to meet a Tinder date at the beach, which I thought was quite normal. When I turned up there, I was the only one there, so I started messaging her, asking her where she was.

She would reply saying, I can see you. Your blue shirt looks great. Turns out she was up a tree watching me. I got back in the car real quick. Nah, nah, nah, nah. And sent her a message saying, hey, I think we should just be friends. Yeah, no, I reckon you shouldn't be friends. I reckon you should run a mile.

Someone else texted her and they said, I met a girl in town one night. She seemed like a good sort, so I asked her out. We went out for dinner and then her parents walked in two minutes after we got there. They just sat down and joined us if that wasn't awkward enough her mother was very flirty oh my god oh my gosh didn't think much of it and thought maybe that was just her personality while i was waiting to pay the mother came up to me and gave me her number and said her husband is away for a few days from Tuesday. Feel free to drop by and have a wine. Absolute mayhem.

What a strange family. Not ideal, eh? Someone else went to the movies on a date and he didn't laugh at the funny parts and I laughed at the non-funny. He didn't laugh at the funny parts and laughed at the non-funny parts. Oh, my God, so you know straight away that you're on completely different pages. Oh, God. These are wild. Someone else said the whole date he just kept asking me if I liked his tattoos,

which all were badly done. He then very quickly started to talk to me about when we would live together and that he was from the UK and asked if I could help him fill out his paperwork to get residency as it got rejected. Wow. That's wild. Someone said on our second date, we got locked in a predator-proof sanctuary

and had to call the police to get out. What? What were you doing in a predator-proof sanctuary in the first place? Sounds very Jurassic Park to me. One call from someone who wants to be anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hi, Anonymous.

Hello, how are you? Good, thank you, mate. Tell us, why was it a strange date? So I got this text saying, oh, we should meet up for lunch. Put in the address into Google Maps, and then when I pulled up, it was a retirement village. What? Yeah, like an old folks home.

Yeah. And then we went in for lunch thinking there might have been like a restaurant there. No, it was just where they ate in the cafeteria area. And then... Anonymous, how old was the range on your Tinder search? Yeah, maybe the same as... Did you have it set to 85? She was only 21,

so I was like, what the f*** are we doing here? Anonymous, rein in the language. Come on. Oh, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry. That was an accident. It's okay, Anonymous.

Maybe the Caesar salad was really good there. Yeah, maybe that's what it was. I mean, it was literally mashed potatoes and peas that they were serving for lunch. Everything was put through a blender.

Yeah. Second date, did it go anywhere? Well, she ended up being called into work, going off and leaving me at the table to talk to the residents. Did you make some friends though, Anonymous? Oh, definitely, definitely. Maybe got into some worlds as well. Yeah, I was going to say,

the lady's like, come back to my room, I've got some pills you can have. And Anonymous is like, finally, this date is looking up. Oh, there you go. Some strange dates. More to come as well. You know, people are trying to be creative. Everyone's looking for that interesting thing that's going to make their date memorable.

That is memorable. That is definitely memorable. That's for sure. It's time for Google Down. Google, are you down, down, down, down, down, down, down? What the hell? I think Google's actually... If you haven't heard this game before,

this is where we endeavour to find out who is the fastest Googler. And if you back the right person, you can pick up $50 cash. That's right. Text the name of either Clint, Producer Ella or Producer Claudia to 9696. And if you pick right, you will pick up the 50 bucks. Easy peasy. Let's do this thing. I'm ready for a win to kick the year off.

All right, guys. Here's how it works. I've put these exact questions into Google and I'm looking for the person who yells out the correct answer first. First to three points wins. Got it. Here we go, guys. Producers ready? Ready.

All right. Yep. Well, hopefully you haven't texted producer Ella to 9696. There's a lot of tics for Ella. Yeah, there is. There's a lot of tics. Wow. Just some background.

Claudia is very, very good at this game, and I appreciate people texting my name through, but I am the host. Yeah. So text another name quickly now because I can't win. She can't win Celebrity Treasure Island and she can't win Google Down. Yes, exactly right. Question number one. How many seasons are there of Kath and Kim?

Oh, my gosh. How many? Four. That's right, producer Claude. I saw Clint going to just have a guess, which you can do. I was going to guess five. I thought it would be more. Yeah, same.

They did a couple of crappy movies. Yeah. Was that reunion any good? Yeah. Yeah, I didn't hear much about it. Yeah, I mean, the four seasons are amazing, but after that, not really. Okay, one to producer Claude. Question number two.

How many kilometres long is the Nile River? How many kilometres? 6,615. Give that to Clint. He started it first and he got it right. One to Clint, one to Claude. Ella yet to be on the board. Question number three.

How much money did Avatar Way of Water make on the opening weekend? A billion dollars. $134 million. That is right Producer Claude. $134 million is the answer

I was looking for. She is off to a flyer too to Producer Claude. One134 million is the answer I was looking for. She is off to a flyer, two to Producer Claude, one to Clint. It's done $2 billion. Has it now? Yeah. I'm not surprised. I see that. That movie just prints money.

Yeah. Like, I'm not even that excited about it, $2 billion. What was the amount it needed to make, though, to break even? $2 billion. $2 billion. Yeah. Jeez. I know. You're like, guys, to break even? $2 billion. $2 billion. Yeah. Jeez. I know.

You're like, guys, we broke even. I got a dollar now. Everything from here is a bonus. Amazing. All right, this could be the winning point for Claude. Guys, you need to stop it. Question number four. We are trying.

In what year did they start building the Sydney Harbour Bridge? In what year? 1923. What did you say, Claude? 1923. Producer Claude, nothing's changed in the year of 2023. She's taken it out. That is the win.

Well done, Claudia. Producer Claude, and someone who texted through Claude as the winner was Mitch. G'day, Mitch. Good morning. How are you? You're our Google Down support champion as the winner was Mitch. G'day, Mitch. Good morning. How are you? You're our Google Down support champion, the first for 2023. You get 50 bucks cash.

Congratulations. Thanks, guys. Never lose faith in Claude. Mate, she's got it in space, doesn't she? Honestly, I reckon it should be 50 bucks if you pick Claude, but like 100 to 200 bucks if you pick Ella, right? Because the odds are so much different. We should offer TAB odds on this game.

Honestly. I mean, Claude. Just bang a $1. Way in front, yeah. There we go. That's Google down. Bree and Clint. Please welcome to the show this morning,

good friend of ours, friend of ZM, and host of the Girls Uninterrupted podcast, it's Brodie Kane. Hi, Brodie. G'day, Brodie. Ata maria, team. Happy, oh no, it's too late to say Happy New Year. No, mate, go for it.

No, we haven't seen you yet. No, okay, Happy New Year to you both. Lovely to talk to you. Happy New Year, friend. Happy New Year. I've enjoyed keeping up with you on social media over summer and you've spent a lot of time with your wonderful mum, Jo Kane. I did.

It's always good to get down to Waikaku Beach where, let me be clear, they've had probably some of the best weather of the whole summer. This is what I didn't enjoy about following you over summer. Don't come on here, Brodie, and tell us about all the good weather you guys have been out. I bet you've got a tan. I bet you look like you've actually had a summer. See, here's the thing. I did when I was down there, and then I went to all the places that had the storms. So I'm actually the pastiest you've actually had a summer. See, here's the thing. I did when I was down there,

and then I went to all the places that had the storms. So I'm actually the pastiest I've been in a while. Which is way tanner than I'll ever be. Hey, your mum, Jo Kane, performed, I think unintentionally, quite an important social service over summer by experimenting with how long the Christmas ham is really good for. Well, see, this is the thing. I've always found the Joe Cain fridge journey to be quite interesting.

Like, there are sometimes things that are in that fridge that you would think, no, we won't have that. And she'll open it and have a sniff and be like, it's absolutely fine. Brodie, do you feel like that's a mum thing? Because when I was home for Christmas, I was like, mum, how long has this raw chicken been in the fridge? She goes, oh, not long enough. It'll be fine.

And like some of the stuff she pulls out of the fridge, I'm just like, oh. Yeah, I tend to think it probably is a mum thing and they don't like things to go to waste. No. So they'd rather risk it. But yeah, mum did a service, but also a service that came with a consequence

with the Christmas ham. So your Christmas ham was cooked on what date? Christmas Eve. Christmas Eve. Okay, the 24th. What date did your mum consume her final piece of Christmas ham? The 12th of January.

I think I'm okay with that. That's over two full weeks that thing has been sitting in there. I think I'm all right with that. It's closer to three weeks. Is that bad? Oh, three weeks, you're getting in the grey area. I mean, you know, the age-old thing, you cook the ham, you wrap it in a cold, wet tea towel,

and that helps keep the moisture in and whatnot. And I would have said maybe, no, I would have gone a week, a week and a half, right? Yeah. I'm eating the ham on New Year's Day. I am. Yeah. And I'll probably eat it up until about the third.

But then I'm like, hmm, I don't know. Then you're a bit sick of it. Then you're a bit sick of it. Yeah, you get sick of it. So what was the outcome? Because I've never pushed the boundaries that far. She ate Christmas ham from Christmas Eve on the 12th of January. What were the results?

Well, she went both ends. Oh, she actually got sick from it. Yeah, yeah. Oh, no. She woke up at about, I think it was about 1 or 2 o'clock in the morning and the stomach was going full noise. And away she went to have a wee evening session on the loo. Oh, she had spitty bum.

Poor old duck, honestly. I mean, living on the edge does come with consequences. It doesn't always pay off. Yeah, I reckon. And she said she'd done the smell test again. She said it still smelled fine. I'm just like, I don't know, Mum. The 12th is, it's 12 full days a year.

How much ham was left on the 12th? How big was your family's Christmas ham? It was a big ham. It was a big ham, you know, and most of us, all the adults sort of left. It's just her gnawing away on this ham bone. Yeah. Maybe she needs to get her smell tested because maybe she had COVID and she couldn't smell properly.

Oh, my gosh. And that's what did her in. Yeah. I mean, I would never have done the 12th. I mean, there should be some sort of rule. You know how there's a rule for your Christmas tree? There should also be some sort of enforced rule. We need some like chef or food expert

to actually give us the definitive answer. Well, that's what we're going to try and do right now, Brodie. We're going to ask you, how late did you eat the Christmas ham this year? And whether you got sick or not, we want to know. What's the last date you remember having a piece of the Christmas ham? And we'll see if we can refine it back any further.

We know the 12th is no good, Brodie, because Jo Cain's done that for us. Well, in that instance, maybe in another. How close can we get? Do you guys reckon the wet tea towel just holds all the bacteria in it? I think there's way too much faith in the wet tea towel. I know.

Who came up with that idea? Where was the wet tea towel when the pandemic broke out? Hey, thanks Brodie. We're going to figure this out together. We appreciate your time. Have a good one, guys. Thanks, mate. Talk soon. Anita called through and said her gran's method was a wet tea towel with vinegar. That keeps the bugs out, apparently.

Vinegar, is that the secret to it? Yeah, my mum puts vinegar on our wet handbag. Probably just to stop the tea towel from going smelly. Isn't it the most disgusting thing? The wet handbag. Handbag. Handbag. Handbag sounds like something out of a...

Sounds like something... Out of a Bloodhound Gang song. Or something Lady Gaga would wear. I googled it. How many days does the Christmas ham last for? Yeah. Which, I mean, you can't always trust exactly what Google says. You need to go off your gut.

Right, and your sniff test. And your sniff test. But it says Christmas ham stored in the fridge, either on the bone or carved off and wrapped in plastic and foil, will keep perfectly well for up to two weeks. Two weeks. Two weeks is what it says. Which takes you through to the 7th of January.

Which in my family, I can remember people eating it like in that week. So the 7th could be the date. We've got someone who went down on the 12th, although we've got someone who called through who also ate it on the 12th. Hi, Debbie. G'day, Debbie. Hey, how are you guys? Good, thank you, mate. Were you still eating the Christmas ham on the 12th, were you? Yeah, yeah. Now you're freaking me out. Yes, I did.

We made ham sandwiches. So we would have, the last time we ate it would have been the 13th, I reckon. You got as far as the 13th. Yeah. Risky doing it on been the 13th, I reckon. You got as far as the 13th. Yeah. Risky doing it on Friday the 13th, Debbie. Wait, that was last Friday. Yeah.

Yeah, yeah. And then when I ate it, I was like, oh, I don't know. It does taste a bit odd. So, yeah, we checked it. We checked it. But we're all good. This is really important. So, Jo Cain cooked hers on Christmas Eve.

When did you cook yours? No, well, I was given it on Christmas Eve as a gift. Cooked. Already cooked. Cooked, yeah. Okay, the same. So we're not sure when it was cooked. Debbie?

No. No. Debbie, we're going to now name you Iron Gut Debbie. Yeah, yeah. I love it. I love it. The hammer name. Good on you, Debbie.

I say push the limit. We've had an unconfirmed. Thank you, yeah. I love it. I love it. The ham-inator. Good on you, Debbie. I say push the limit. We've had an unconfirmed report of someone who says they are still eating the Christmas ham today. No. We've been trying to get that person on the line. Claudia's working on it at the moment. Surely not. Surely not. Surely not.

What are we? We are the 18th of January. You are not still eating the Christmas ham. Someone else said the bone-in, it You are not still eating the Christmas ham. Someone else said the bone in, it doesn't last as long as champagne ham. Really? Get the bone out. There you go. Is it the bone that turns it? You know, you can get

some good bargains on a full Christmas ham if you wait until Boxing Day. Can you actually? Yeah, yeah. They go on sale. Butcher down the road from me had his hams at half price. He had too many hams left. We've got Ashley here. Is this our person? Ashley, are you still eating the Christmas ham now?

No, my granddad's driving me to work and we were just talking about it and he's still eating it. No, he's not. He's right here. Are you still eating it? Yep. Yep.

Can you ask him when he... And he's not finished. Yeah. There's still some left. Are you still eating it? Yep. Yep. Can you ask him when he... And he's not finished. Yeah. There's still some left. When did he cook it? Can you ask him for us what date he cooked his Christmas ham? What day? I've got to ask him.

Actually, I've got to ask him. For what day? It's the New Year's. Oh, okay. It's a classic New Year's Oh Oh Okay It's a New It's a It's a classic New Year's ham Who do you think it is?

I can't tell I'm not sure Okay I was worried for your grandad But we don't know when Yeah The lines are blurry here I'm not

Yeah Okay Okay Thank you Ashley We appreciate that Grandad's still going on the ham Stuart You're our last one

You're still eating the Christmas ham now On the 19th of January Yeah It's still in the fridge No But are you're our last one. You're still eating the Christmas ham now on the 19th of January. Yeah, it's still in the fridge. No, but are you still eating it? I had some on Sunday, to be fair. Okay. I mean, that's pretty good effort. What was the date on Sunday? The Sunday was the 15th.

15th. And is it all good? Does it smell alright? Are you okay? You've just got to keep rinsing out the handbag and putting more vinegar with it and it's all right? Are you okay? You've just got to keep rinsing out the handbag and putting more vinegar with it, and it's all good. Can we get rid of the handbag thing? No, no, the handbag sounds like the secret to everything. Surely there's a better way.

I wonder how long a hot roast chicken would last in a handbag. Like, is that the secret to keeping chicken for two weeks? I don't think chicken is the same as ham. Okay, that's incredible. Stuart ate some on the 15th. We've had a text from someone who said they ate it on the 17th. That's the date we're going with. That's the longest surviving Christmas ham we've been able to locate.

Like I just... If I can find you a piece of Christmas ham that has been in the fridge, in the ham bag, in the vinegar, and I bring it in. Will you eat it tomorrow? Hey, I can't do this again. I can't. My stomach has been through enough. Bree and Clint.

Time for a birthday banger. It's my birthday. It's my birthday. Bree and Clint's birthday banger. You've been listening to us this week, and you heard this segment, and you go, I like a bit of this. Well, we do it every day on our afternoon show, 5.30 every day.

You call us up, you tell us your birthday, we figure out what was the number one song on your 16th and then we'll play our favourite one out of three. Let's kick it off with Kat. Kia ora, Kat. G'day, Kat. Hi, how are you going? Good, mate.

How's your week going so far? Yeah, not bad, not bad. Been enjoying the sun. Oh, yeah. How good is it? The weather's been pretty good the last couple of days. Oh, careful. Well, it rained yesterday.

Yeah, I know. There's a new tropical cyclone hitting at one o'clock today. Great. Just to be a real downer. Yeah, great, great. Well, hey, Kat, let's do your birthday banger. What's your birthday? 20th of November, 1987.

All right. That means you were 16 in 2003. And on the 20th of November, 2003, this was number one. We cannot stop now. I'm feeling hip-hop. Gotta stand up. We got it locked down. Iconic.

Hey, guys. Yeah, but a local flavour. Not mad about it. Yeah, love it. This is such a tune as well. He put out new music over summer, Scribe. Yeah. Okay, wait there.

We're going to play a birthday banger for Holden. Kia ora, Holden. G'day, Holden. Kia ora. I'm always interested to know, were you named, did your parents really love Holdens? Yeah, they did. That was the only reason they called me Holden. Were you conceived

in the back of a Kingswood or something? No, no, I wasn't. Commodore. My middle name is actually a car part as well. No way, what's your middle name? Cam. Like Cam Belt. Yeah. I love it. And do you like Holdens?

Please tell me you're a Holden man. Oh, I do actually. I love Holdens. Yeah, it'd be tell me you're a Holden man. I do, actually. I love Holdens. It'd be weird if you're a Ford guy. I hate cars. I've got an EV. Hey, Holden, what's your birthday, mate? March 20th, 1990. All right, that means you were 16 in 2006. And, Holden, here it is, your birthday banger.

Ooh, boy, you're looking like you like what you see. Won't you come over and check a boy? 2006. And Holden, here it is, your birthday banger. I am. I am. I don't like it. I can hear this banging out the back of your club sport, Holden. This is what you want, isn't it? From your tweeters. Yeah, it's a pretty good banger.

Hey, Beyonce, check on it. That's from the big time Beyonce era. You'd email the Holden company, wouldn't you, if you named your kid Holden and just be like, anything free? Can we get, you know, maybe... A set of floor mats? Some tyres? Yeah. Some tyres?

You've got to go big or go home. Rochelle's here. Hi, Rochelle. Hi, Rochelle. Hi. How are you, mate? I'm good, thanks. Are you named after anyone?

No. No, she's an original. Original Rochelle. She's one of a kind. I like it. Hey, Rochelle, what's your birthday? 24th of January, 1992. Happy birthday for next week, Rochelle. You were 16 in 2008, and here it is, your birthday banger.

Now you're gone. I realise my love for you was strong. And I miss you. It's a bass hum, Rochelle. Huge banger. It's a bit of bass hunter, Rochelle. Huge banger. The inter-bass hunter, Rochelle. It was actually my first ever concert.

I think I was there, Rochelle. That's so fitting for you. As we say, the birthday banger, you can't choose it, it chooses you. I think there's a reason for this too. And it's Rochelle's birthday next week and it's brought back an actual 16-year-old memory. I think we have to play a bass on her. Rochelle, would you like that?

Yes, that'd be awesome. Well, congratulations. You've just won birthday banger. Enjoy this. And Holden's happy because this is going to sound epic in his subwoofer and his holder. He's going to go off. Bray and Clint. Here you go.

Coming out of 2008. ZM. Bray and Clint. Duff, Duff Bree and Clint, the winner of Birthday Banger for Rochelle from 2008 as Bass Hunter, Now You're Gone Das Sound Machine I love it, a bit of Bass Hunter, that takes you back Hey, this next story, everyone just gear up because it's going to make you really angry.

Okay. Or quite guilty. Ooh. Because maybe a few people listening have maybe done this before, but when I read this, I was livid. Okay. So there's a story going around at the moment about a guy who lives in Sydney. Sorry, I don't know if it's a guy. It's a tenant that lives in Sydney

and they are the sole leaseholder of the building. Okay. Right? So I believe there was a group of people and then slowly over time people have left. He's the only one left. Yeah, exactly. Okay.

Anyway. Does he have other flatmates? So this is where it gets interesting. So for the past two years, Okay. Anyway. Does he have other flatmates? So this is where it gets interesting. So for the past two years, the individual has been subletting the other four rooms to people who didn't know that they were also covering the cost of that person's rent. Oh, this is a classic. I've heard about this.

So this is what they said on this group. They don't know the actual price of the flat. They don't know what he's paying. The four this is a classic. I've heard about this. So this is what they said on this group. They don't know the actual price of the flat. They don't know what he's paying. The four people don't know. No. Exactly. So this is what they have written on this group message board asking for advice, right? Oh, this is good.

I am currently the head tenant of a five-bedroom house in the inner west. I sublet to four others and have done so for two years. Okay. The lease is coming up for renewal and the other tenants wish to all sign on, as you would. Would you? Well. You want to be on the lease?

It protects you from stuff like this, for one. Yeah. Depends. If you're not on the lease, though, you can move out whenever you want. Well, that's true. They go on and they say, the issue is I've not been very transparent about the relative rental contributions

and my rent is actually entirely covered by them. How do I go about navigating this situation? So I'm imagining the house probably rents for $1,000 and he's charging each of them $250. Kind of genius. It's dod000 and he's charging each of them $250. Kind of genius. Kind of genius. It's dodgy and it's underhanded. It's very dodgy.

Is there a case? I could not do it. The guilt would get me real bad. Would they? Because all your friends have moved out and these are randos now. But it's not your house. No, but you're doing the work to maintain the lease. But are you?

How much work are you doing? You're keeping it tenanted. Have you done this? No. You've done it. Clint's done it. No, I haven't. I've never. Are you sure? I was about to say I've never been in charge of the finances. I've always been in charge of the finances.

Dodgy. No, I haven't. I'm just asking. I'm just playing devil's advocate here to ask if there's a case for this person. Nah, it's wrong. It's wrong and the reason why they're asking for advice is because they know what they've been doing is wrong and they're guilty and now that it's time,

it's D-Day, they're like, crap, what do I do? You hear stories all the time about people skimming from the flat account in ways like this. So if you run the account and you do the grocery shopping, you might go, oh yeah, groceries are $100 each this week or whatever it is. And you've just made them cover your food. There's so many ways you could hide it.

That's wrong too. You can't do that because like eventually someone will figure it out. Can you imagine how panicked they would feel? They have to move out. Do they? Yeah. Can't they just go? Can you imagine?

Wait, so ready, put yourself in this situation. Imagine you've been flatting for two years, right? Yeah. You're in this flat. It comes around to the time where they all sign on for the lease and you figure it out. Oh, only if you're going to let them onto the lease. And you figure out that a person has been making you pay.

Their rent. Their rent for two years. How are you going to feel about them? I'll be pretty irate, just to be honest. Oh, you'd be ropeable. I might be leaving some hairs on their soap in the shower that day just to get some revenge. Like, I kind of would get it, especially if they're the head tenant

and they look after maybe, like, you know, talking with the landlord. They must. Doing bits and pieces, right? This person's not letting the other tenants talk to the landlord. I would get it if they put down their rent a little bit. Like, I could come around to that. Like a 20%? Yeah.

Like, I wouldn't be super mad at that, but to not pay anything at all, like, oh, I don't know about it. We want to know what the dodgy thing your flatmate was doing was. Yeah, what was the shady thing that you found out your flatmate was doing? Yeah, were they doing this? Were they subletting to you? Were they skimming food off the groceries? Were they running a full hydroponic setup in the ceiling that you had no idea about and creaming it on the side,

selling marijuana to other people. And that way they didn't really have to pay any rent anyway. But you had to pay the power bill for those hydroponic lights. I think you don't. I think you have an inkling. You're going to be an odour. Yeah, maybe. You'll be like, why am I always so relaxed?

Why are there so many people with dreadlocks at our house? I'm so relaxed in here. Yeah, a lot of text coming through on this. Someone said a similar thing happened to me. My head tenant paid about a quarter of what the rest of us were paying and never paid for a power bill. One month I was only home for two days as I worked away and he tried to charge me nearly $300 for my portion of the power that month

to obviously cover his power cost. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I reckon there's something dodgy going on there. Oh, we've got him on the line. There he is at the top, Jay. Hi, Jay. Hiya. Jay, how did you guys eventually figure all this out?

Well, his parents were the owners, so I just got in contact with them. Right. Interesting. What did they do about it? Were they pissed off? Were they like, well, he gets to do what he wants. He's in charge. Well, honestly, they kicked him out and made him cover the portion of the power that was owed.

They kicked him out of their house and let you stay there? Yes. Okay, that's lesson learned. That's actually really good parenting. Very good parenting, being like, you can't do that to people. Now pay your portion of the power. Thanks, Jay. Let's talk to Sophie.

Hi, Sophie. Hi, Sophie. Hi. Tell us, what was the shady thing you found out your flatmate was doing? So this is actually my partner's flatmate. Basically, his flatmate went on a trip to India for about three months. Not really any explanation. We're all like, oh, yeah, whatever. And he came back with his new wife and his parents and his new wife's parents and decided that they were all going to live in the flat and because he was the head tenant,

he kicked everyone out. He kicked you all out without notice? Three weeks notice. That is... Oh, rough. That's mental. And then in the meantime, in the three weeks, did all the tenants have to live there with the wife

and the wife's parents and the whole new family had bought back from India? Yep. Who were you sharing with? Did you bunk in with them? I'm imagining you weren't visiting your partner a lot during that time, Sophie. No, not particularly.

No, probably just stay at your place during that time. Not ideal. Oh, there you go. Hey, someone else text through and they said, our flatmate took our bond and didn't lodge it. He also made us pay all the rent. So we found out we made him pay for the power and water invoice. Yeah.

Yeah. Not lodging the bond, that's so dodgy. If that's not motivation enough for you this year to get your KiwiSaver sorted and start saving for your own house, you know, take control of the situation. You just never know, do you? I mean, because at the end of the day,

the situation is you move in with people that you don't know. What about this? Someone said, we did the complete opposite in a five-bedroom house where we gave the fifth bedroom to someone for free as long as they did the cleaning of the flat every week. Keen for that. It's like you've got a live-in maid. Yeah.

It's like they have to live in the maid quarters. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They're only allowed to come out after dark and they have to cook for you. But free rent. But free rent. Free rent. It would work for some people, wouldn't it? Free and Clint.

Look, if you know me, you'll know that I like to give my mum a bit of stick. I prank her sometimes, have a bit of fun. I think you pranked her twice a day over Christmas. Yeah. That's what it looked like. It was a few times, but I was very proud of her because she decided that she was going to get one back.

Yeah. It was her turn. Good. Good on her. Prank me. Yeah. And I must say, very creative prank from her. Put a lot of effort and time into it.

Yeah. And I was actually really proud of her. I was like, nice work. So picture this. It's Christmas morning. It's very early. I reckon it's about quarter to seven. Right.

In the morning. Yeah. And my mum knocks on my door at home because obviously I was visiting them for Christmas and she walks in and she's like, Brianna, Brianna, there's someone here to see you. And I was like, what the hell are you talking about? Yeah. And I thought she was talking about my nephew, Jonty. Right.

Okay. Oh, cute. Yeah. Look, we've got some audio of what went down. You'll hear kind of what I just explained at the start and see if you can guess who was there to visit me on Christmas morning. Merry Christmas. Brianna, there's someone here to see you right now. Hello, my son.

What have you done? Good morning, Rana. What is that, Mum? He had to come. He told me. Oh my God! How did you guys even do that? How did you reach him? Get that song.

I'll be sitting at the table. I'll be waiting for you. And look how tall he is. I know. He's a lifestyle. He's a perfect size for me. Now that's your dad's voice. I can pick that. Yeah, that's my dad. But imagine you weren't that surprised to see him on Christmas morning.

No, it wasn't. He was doing the voice for the life sized cut out of Channing Tatum. It was huge. My mum has gone to this website and she has ordered a life-size cutout of Channing Tatum and has pushed this cutout into my room on Christmas morning. I nearly had a coronary. Well, she did famously

invite him to Christmas. Well, that's why she did it. Yeah. She didn't get the chance to invite him directly but through us she asked if he would come to Christmas. And if you've just kind of not listened to our show before, Channing Tatum followed me on Instagram and we

exchanged messages over Instagram. Yeah. And one of the things. We talked to him earlier, like the middle of last year. He's like a friend of the show. Yeah, we go way back. Chan, we go way back. Way back.

Anyway, my mum did ask him to come for Christmas lunch and she goes, well, I had to take matters into my own hands. She also asked Ed Sheeran to come for Christmas. That'll be next year. She asked him directly too and he said he would be there. That's right, she did too. We got your mum to interview Ed Sheeran and he probably just being polite. He, to be honest,

was quite annoyed because he drank all the Christmas beers on Christmas Day and I was quite TO'd with him. Yeah, he got a bit lippy, eh? He did and then he went on the slip and slide. He got all sloppy. And got sunburnt. And he's like, oh, are you going to write your fourth album now, are you, Ed? That Aussie sun, it'll get you.

Hey, well done, Mum and Dad. That is very impressive. Very good for you. I need to see this video. Yeah, I'll show you the video. Yeah. I'm sure you look really good being woken up at quarter to seven in the morning, too. And that's why we're not posting it on social media.
