For a few years, in the 1970s, the Mr Asia syndicate made millions.
Heroin creates its own market.
It acts like a form of play.
Until jealousy, betrayal and murder brought it all crashing down.
Then he just pulled out a gun, shot her in the back of the head,
and then said to Wayne, you're going to help me bury her.
This is Mr Asia, A Forgotten History.

Koda, everybody, and welcome to the Brie and Clint show for a brand new week.
G'day, guys.
Happy Monday.
How was everyone's weekend?
The peak and the pit of your weekend.
Go, Producer Ella.
You can kick us off.
Falling asleep on the couch with a sea view.
Is that your peak?
Peak or pit?
Oh, that was a peak, baby.
Oh, nice. Yeah, nice.
And what was your pit?
My pit was being a bit sick.
Oh, yeah, okay.
That's good.
Thank you.
Made it snappy.
I like it. Producer Claudia, hit us.
I think my peak last night, I went to 21 Pilots,
and they were actually insanely good.
What?
Really, really good.
They've been off the top 40 radar for a while,
but they're so talented.
I think I'm their number one fan now.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I have that when I go to shows sometimes.
I'm like, is Fall Out Boy the greatest band in the world?
Yeah, yeah.
Short answer, yes.
I suppose I'm just tired.
That's it.
Yeah, that's a good one.
Yeah, fair enough.
My peak was probably going to a birthday party to find chickens at a bar.
That was pretty fun.
Chickens at a bar?
Yeah, it's called Chicken and two people get selected to be the chickens
and they get sent off and they have to pick a bar within a certain radius
and then the rest of us have to find them as a collective.
Oh, my God.
But anyway, my peak was I just turned up once they'd been found.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
I didn't have to do any of the work.
Good strategy.
And then the pit was probably the Mike Tyson and Jake Paul fight.
That was pretty bloody disappointing.
Wasn't it pathetic?
The women's fight beforehand was one of the best boxing matches I've ever seen
and then followed by that stinker.
Terrible.
What about you?
I don't remember the weekend.
Oh, wow.
Someone was out?
Someone got that crazy.
Is that your peak or your pit?
I just don't really remember what happened.
Did you get that lit?
No, didn't get lit at all.
You were very lit.
No, no, no.
Very wholesome weekend, actually.
Oh, my gosh, Clint.
Let's go for a round of tradie versus lady.
We got 100 points in the Lady column.
We have 94 points in the Tradie column.
And we've got a few weeks left of Tradie vs. Lady for the year.
We sure do.
And we need you to play with us.
0800 DIALZM.
50 bucks up for grabs if you win the game.
Bree and Clint.
It's Tradie vs. Lady. Three, two, one, let's right. We've got them both here, the tradies and the ladies. And we keep score.
The ladies on 100 wins for the year. The tradies on 94. Our lady's calling from Christchurch.
She's 49 and she's an ECE teacher. Welcome to the show. It's Lisa.
Hi, Lisa. Hi, how are you doing? So what age group is that exactly? Early childhood? So
it's under fives, but I'm in the three to five year old group. Oh yeah, they're way
more fun than those snotty ones and twos, eh Lisa? For me, absolutely. Who are your favourites, Lisa, just between us?
The threes, the fours or the fives?
Definitely the four to fives.
They've just got a little bit more personality
and they have a little bit more to say, yeah.
And not as many tantrums.
And most of them can take themselves to the toilet.
Yeah, well, that's a good part too.
Fair enough.
Okay, you're taking on our tradie today from Auckland,
the 33, and they love hiking.
Welcome to the show, Alex. Hi, you're taking on our tradie today from Auckland, the 33, and they love hiking. Welcome to the show, Alex.
Hi, Alex.
Hello.
What's the most impressive hike you've ever done, Alex?
I did one last year called Restart.
That was probably my favourite.
Restart?
How long are we talking?
It was four days.
Oh, absolutely not.
I'd rather eat tacks, but I mean proud of you.
Good for you.
Four days, and that's all you do is you walk.
Alex, your buzzer is tradie.
Lisa, yours is lady.
The first to three wins, tradie versus lady.
Good luck.
Here we go, guys.
Question number one.
58-year-old Mike Tyson took on YouTuber Jake Paul
in an eight-round boxing match on the weekend.
Who won?
Lady. Yes, Lisa just got in there. It would be Jake Paul. It would be Jake Paul in an eight-round boxing match on the weekend. Who won? Lady.
Yes, Lisa, just got in there.
It would be Jake Paul.
It would be Jake Paul.
It was Jake Paul.
Wasn't even really a fight, to be honest.
No.
Didn't even look like it could go the other way.
All right, one to the ladies.
Question number two.
How many are there in a baker's dozen?
Lady.
Lady just got in.
Thirteen. Thirteen. Thirteen Lady just got in. 13.
13.
13 is on the money.
She started strong.
I feel like Alex is right there, just missing out on the buzzer.
You need this one to stay in it, Alex.
Question number three.
Buzz in when you can tell me who sings this song.
I'm going to go Alex.
Ed Sheeran.
Ed Sheeran's correct. It's, of course, Ed Sheeran. Ed Sheeran's correct.
It's, of course, Ed Sheeran.
Well done.
Here comes question number four.
The Hickoy is making its way to Parliament.
What is the name of the building in which the New Zealand Prime Minister works?
Yes, Lisa.
The Beehive.
She's got it.
She's a lady.
Oh, oh, oh, she's a lady.
Those kids are going to be well taught
because that was quite a masterclass to hear this afternoon.
Lisa, well done.
Congratulations.
Oh, my.
It was good, wasn't it?
All right, very good.
Another win for the ladies.
They move to 101 and Lisa gets $50 cash.
Trading First Ladies back at 3 o'clock tomorrow.
Bree and Clint.
Who wants a feel-good story for a Monday?
Yeah, me.
A bit of a pick-me-up.
Me, me, me.
Yeah, everyone wants a feel-good for a Monday.
I saw this on oneroof.co.nz where they were talking about these two people
who live in Mount Eden in Auckland and they're both going to sell their houses.
They live right near each other, right next to each other.
Because of the Coldplay concerts. Well, they're over it. They're just over to sell their houses. They live right near each other, right next to each other. Because of the Coldplay concerts.
Well, they're over it.
They're just over the bloody music.
No, that's not the reason at all.
They said, we never realised buying next to a stadium
meant there would be events in our neighbourhood.
It's just wild how loud it is.
Who put the stadium here 100 years ago?
Who would have thought 56,000 people make quite a bit of noise?
No, it's not about that.
It's the cutest story ever.
So these two people are neighbours, right, and they both,
they'd known each other for quite a long time and they'd see each other
walking the dog and they'd just do the neighbour thing with it, say hello.
Yeah.
And then eventually the guy, his wife passed away sadly in 2020.
And then ever since then they would hang out more and they became friends
and then they realised they had a heap in common and then they started dating.
Oh, my God.
And they always joke how it's super convenient because, I mean,
they don't have to drive to one another's house for a sleepover
no they don't have to catch an uber like they're right there we had neighbors who we were super
close with I mean we weren't dating but we just kicked a hole in the fence so you could just go
back and forth it's great then go out onto the street just go straight through yeah the walk
of shame is really short because it's just across the street or across the way. But it's so cute.
So they've fallen in love and then now they've decided they're going to both sell their houses
because they're bigger houses, like family homes.
And all their kids are grown up and living overseas and doing their own thing.
So they're going to sell their houses and move into one house together.
Oh my God, they're going to be absolutely minted.
Isn't that the sweetest story in the world?
They're each going to sell their existing houses and then go halves in one house.
In a townhouse, apparently.
Oh, my God.
They're going to be so rich.
And then they can just go travelling.
And in love and happy, but also stacked.
Why is that the only thing you think about?
Because they're combining assets. They
are consolidating assets. How romantic. Yeah, exactly right. I wonder if they'll go, well,
actually, my house had a larger capital gain than your house. So actually...
God, you really know how to talk to a woman, eh? Yep. I think the plan is they obviously both wanted to downsize
and so they're downsizing together and then they're going
to get a smaller place that's easier to look after
and then go travelling.
Yeah, win-win.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's so cute, falling in love with the neighbour.
Yeah.
I'm just thinking about my neighbours and if there's any chance.
Oh, yeah, good idea.
I mean, I am in a committed, like, happy relationship, but I'm just.
Oh, no, it's always good to, you know.
Nah, everyone's in relationships around me.
Keep your options open.
Yeah.
You're literally, quite literally hedging your bets.
Yeah, you literally are.
I mean, I feel like it's a bad idea, though.
To date the neighbour?
Because what if it goes bad?
You have to live next to them.
Yeah.
Nothing worse than having beef with the neighbour.
Exactly.
What do they say?
Don't beep where you eat.
Yep.
Literally don't do it next door either.
Don't do it next door either.
Yeah, yeah.
Too close.
I want to, it might be a little bit of a needle in a haystack,
but I wonder if anyone listening right now knows someone who this happened to
where you know someone who fell in love with the neighbour.
Yeah. Like a relationship started. And what are we saying neighbors it can be the same street
cross the street cross the street couple of houses down that's neighbors yeah that's neighbors like
where it's in the vicinity of your apartment in the same block yep neighbors yep yeah yeah did
you fall in love with your neighbor did mom fall fall in love with the neighbour? Did dad run off with the neighbour?
Bree and Clint.
Oh, get ready for some cute stories.
Feel good ones.
Talking about a couple who live in Auckland in Mount Eden.
They were neighbours.
Different circumstances in their lives.
When they first met, they didn't get together.
But later on, eventually, it turned into a romance.
Now they're both selling up their houses, downsizing into one house together.
And then they're off to see the world.
You see romance.
I see financial savviness in that situation.
You know?
Why pay two sets of rates?
You know?
You guys only need one water supply.
You're probably sharing a bathroom these days anyway, so, you know.
God, I can just see the next one.
Consolidate.
God, the plot line for the next rom-com is writing itself, isn't it?
Consolidated love.
Consuela, consolidate.
Let's talk to some people who fell in love with the neighbour.
Hello, Anonymous.
Hi, Anonymous.
Hi. Was it you that fell in love with the neighbour. Hello, Anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hi.
Was it you that fell in love with the neighbour?
I think it was me who fell first.
The story actually starts on Tinder.
Okay.
And we matched.
We had a chat.
And then I added him on Snapchat.
And we realised that we both have mutuals.
And that the mutuals that I have with him lived with him.
And then we realised that we actually live on the same block.
What?
When I went and met him for the first time, I actually walked to his house.
That's crazy.
We got there, we hit it off instantly.
And then from there, we have just been in a relationship
for about one and a half years,
and we moved into the end of our relationship.
Oh, congratulations.
Are you sure, Anonymous,
you didn't have your Tinder radius set to 100 metres?
I honestly am surprised that I didn't in this situation.
Yeah, yeah, you could have.
Yeah, Anonymous, were you like,
I refuse to walk anywhere past 500 metres from my house.
I will not Uber for my dates.
I will not do it.
Has to be within this radius.
This person wants to be anonymous too.
Hi, anonymous.
Hi, anonymous.
Hello, I don't think mine's as cute, but same kind of story.
Okay.
I just got, so I was in a flat full of boys,
and next door was a flat full of more boys.
Yeah.
And got a little bit drunk one night
and ended up with one of those boys.
Okay.
And so it was just walk up the driveway with a pillow
and then back down to the other driveway.
Nice.
And six and a half years later,
we are still very much together.
Oh, that is cute, anonymous.
I think that's adorable.
Are you still living next door?
No, we're still living in the same house, but the amount of stick that we got is cute, Anonymous. I think that's adorable. Are you still living next door? No, we're living in the same house,
but the amount of stick that we got is like we're all 20,
21-year-old uni students, little boys.
Yeah, it wore off after a while, but that stick lasted.
That would have been a rough walk of shame with the pillow
under your arm, Anonymous.
I can see what you mean.
Yeah.
Hey, you can't fight true love.
It'll always prevail, Anonymous. Yeah, exactly right. Michael's called up. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Hey, you can't fight true love. It'll always prevail or none of us.
Yeah, exactly right.
Michael's called up.
G'day, Michael.
Hello, Michael.
How you doing?
We're good.
Thank you.
Now, you fell in love at a neighbour's street party.
Is that right?
Yeah, it did.
I met my partner.
We used to have a real tight-knit street
where we used to all drink together and have fun together.
Yeah.
Cool.
I met Shona.
She lived about three doors up from me.
And we sort of got together and we moved in pretty quick and combined our families.
And now we just live on the outskirts of town on a little farm and we're getting married two days after Christmas.
See, that is the plot line to a rom-com.
That's consolidated love.
I'm telling you, they both sold their properties.
We're not calling it consolidated love.
They managed to combine equity and they had enough money to move to an entire frickin' farm.
Are you kidding me?
That's so good.
Michael, very, very cute story.
They doubled their buying power.
They're all cute except some are scandalous.
Listen to this.
As a child, we had a neighbour who lost her husband.
Her next-door neighbour started doing odd jobs for her around the house.
Eventually, he moved in while his wife continued living next door.
Awkward or what?
Oh, my God.
That's horrible.
He's like, I'm just going over to help Jill.
She's lost her husband.
She doesn't have anybody to hang her picture hooks.
The wife would have been like, oh, that's
so kind. Oh, that's so sweet. My husband's
so good. Oh, he's been working there
all night. He hasn't come home.
And then you move in.
Yeah. That's really
sucks. Talk about rubbing someone's nose in there.
Ah, well. Rough times. Love
doesn't discriminate, I guess. Neighbourly love.
Yeah, hop the fence.
Go on, guys, hop the fence.
What did you want to call our movie?
Consolidated Love.
We're not calling it that.
That's what we should call it.
No, we need to brainstorm the name.
Bree and Clint.
Time for the latest.
From iHeartRadio, this is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy.
Dean, the Wicked movie comes out, I believe, on Thursday,
21st of November.
Everyone is gearing up for it.
But now all these stories are flying around about who else auditioned
for the role of Glinda other than Ariana Grande.
Oh, it's funny because you can't even imagine anyone else in the role now.
We haven't even seen it.
But let me say there's some of the superstars that really wanted
to get their hands on that script. So Renee Rapp, who I am obsessed even seen it. But let me see if there's some of the superstars that really wanted to get their hands on that script.
So Renee Rapp, who I am obsessed with,
absolutely, because she revealed that she actually did audition
for the role of Glinda.
Pretty tough going up against Ariana Grande.
Yeah, Dean, she played Regina George
in the musical adaptation of Mean Girls, didn't she?
Yes, she did.
And look, speaking of Mean Girls, didn't she? Yes, she did. And look, speaking of Mean Girls, Amanda Seyfried apparently also
auditioned for Glinda.
I can't imagine her in that role at all, to be honest.
Yeah.
But yes, she auditioned.
I also heard that Dove Cameron, do I say it right, Dove Cameron,
Taylor Louderman auditioned as well.
And, of course, I've even heard that Nick Jonas and Joe Jonas actually auditioned for different roles in theed as well and of course I've even heard
that Nick Jonas
and Joe Jonas
actually auditioned
for different roles
in the movie as well
so you know
like it was
a coveted movie
and everyone
a hot spot
to be in a movie
like that
so I just think
that it was so
I mean
Cynthia Erivo
and Ariana Grande
iconic
the Joe Bros
would have been good
there would have been
good roles in the movie
for them
but Brie and I
have seen this film
it's out here
in New Zealand this week.
It is phenomenal.
And I feel like everybody that they cast nailed their part.
Yeah, I feel like the people they cast, they did a great job.
Yeah.
Like, the casting's right.
Yeah, totally.
It's spot on.
Yeah, and Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo carry the film.
They're the perfect stars for it.
They stand out.
You're going to love it.
If you love Wicked or you just love a big
like musical film done well
because there are bad ones, this one is good.
It's a really good one, yeah. Yeah, you'll like this one.
Brian Clint. How long
ago now since Donald Trump
went back in? When was that?
A week ago? Two weeks ago. He doesn't
go in until January but he
won it, yeah, about two weeks ago. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah.
Anyway, there's news out today about the US Vice President Kamala Harris and how much her campaign shelled out on Uber Eats and DoorDash
since the month of July.
Got them to spread it around, you know.
Don't give it all to Uber Eats.
Don't give it all to DoorDash.
Well, I guess depending on where they were in America.
Do you reckon she's got someone on her team shopping around for deals?
She's like, hmm.
But you know how, well, not really so much in New Zealand,
but like in Sydney there's multiple companies
and depending on what areas.
I think we've got multiple now in parts of New Zealand.
I think in Auckland you can Uber Eats it, you can DoorDash it,
and you can – what's the other one?
I don't know.
What's the other one you can get?
I don't know.
Kangaroo it?
Like DeliverEasy or something?
DeliverEasy.
DeliverEasy.
Milk Run.
Well, that's just kind of groceries.
Just groceries.
Yeah, yeah. Anyway, how much do you think her and her team spent on Uber Eats?
This is just during the presidential campaign?
This is since July.
Since July.
I don't know.
So July.
So I don't know how big her team is,
but I imagine they're working bloody hard all day, every day.
The last thing they're going to want to do is cook dinner at the end of the day.
And they'd be staying late, so they'd be like, oh, we'll just order Uber Eats for everyone
so then everyone can stay.
Yeah, yeah.
And I think it got down to, like, the dying days where, obviously,
they were trying everything they could, so they just were ordering food.
Yeah, totally, yeah.
The amount they spent, according to this article, $18,711
$18,711
since July
I like to think that's all on one person's
phone
Imagine if it was on one person's
account
Surely you have an Uber Eats
person on your team
You've got someone who's in charge of sorting dinner for everybody
The last thing you want to do at the end of the day is going to go, who is going to sort dinner? Who is going to put it on their credit card? Uber Eats person on your team, you know, you've got someone who's in charge of sorting dinner for everybody.
The last thing you want to do at the end of the day is going to go,
who is going to sort dinner?
Who is going to put it on their credit card?
You'd have campaign managers who just do those things.
Yeah, for sure.
But, I mean, it's hard to know if that's a lot depending on how big that team is.
It could be a huge team.
Could be a huge team, yeah.
I wonder if Uber Eats give out first, second and third for people per country.
You give out medals based on who spent the most.
Yeah, I don't know.
I feel like I've heard JJ Feeney talk about how she would probably take it out.
She spent so much in one year on Uber Eats.
Yeah, Rich, coming from you, you had a
prolific run on Uber Eats for a while.
That was one year. It was one year.
It was one great year. It was a good year.
It was the year before you had a mortgage.
Before I had any responsibilities.
Yeah, yeah. Now it's a
distant memory for me.
I get Uber Eats, oh, I would say
maybe once
a fortnight.
Oh, yeah.
Once a month.
Yeah.
Once a month-ish.
Yeah.
Yeah.
I think I've used Uber Eats about four times in my life.
Why?
I don't know.
It doesn't occur to me.
Like, I don't think about it.
Oh, you haven't been 11.
I know.
I don't think about it.
Like, if we're going to have takeaways, it's just ingrained in me. Have you got good stuff on Uber Eats around your area though?
I don't know. I don't check.
But it's just ingrained in me that if we're going to have takeaways,
I'll ring the place,
place the order, and then go and get it.
You've never sounded older. I know.
But it's a nice way to live.
You know, talk to the person.
Oh, hey babe, have you got that
paper
menu from the place down the road?
Oh, I love a paper menu in the mail.
And then you stick it to the fridge with a magnet and then you can see.
You can actually have a look at what you're going to get.
Yeah, it's underrated.
Yeah.
Bring back paper menus.
I'm so sick of going onto Google and then having to go onto, like,
Google Images and zoom in on a picture of a menu someone's taken.
And then hope that it's still the current menu.
Yeah.
And then you just never know.
Nah, paper menu, please.
We want to know who's got a problem with food delivery services.
Who's the person who's racking up a crazy bill?
Like, did you go, did you try and buy a house recently?
Remember in the news they were saying if you had too much Uber Eats
on your bank statement, the bank was going to turn you down for a home loan?
Yes, that's right.
Yeah.
I knew when I had to stop, it was a very distinctive moment for me when I was at a party and everyone
was like, we're hungry, we're hungry.
And I ordered a hundred cheeseburgers on Uber Eats for the entire party.
You were the Kamala Harris of that party.
Yeah, I was like, who? And then they came and I
distinctly remember getting
these gigantic bags of cheeseburgers
and going, you get a cheeseburger
and pegging it at people at this
party. That's a pretty epic thing to do
at a party though. And everyone was like, we love you!
We love you! It was pretty
awesome. Worth every penny. I'd do that
as my fifth Uber Eats order ever.
It was pretty good. I'd do that. Who's got Eats order. Yeah. Ever. It was pretty good.
I'd do that.
Who's got a problem?
Who can admit to it?
Who wants to join our Uber Eats, our DoorDash,
our DeliverEasy confession line?
Have you got a problem?
Did you rack up a huge bill?
How much?
Bree and Clint.
The bill for Kamala Harris' campaign team has been released
and apparently $18,000 was spent on Uber Eats in DoorDash.
What do you reckon Kamala Harris' Uber Eats order is?
Oh, well, I mean, there's so many different things.
So many different things.
So many options on Uber Eats in DoorDash these days.
Trump's a McDonald's guy.
He was in the news today.
He was on the plane having McDonald's.
Yeah, he gets a Happy Meal.
Yeah.
He likes the toy.
Yeah. He was having McDonald's on the Trump plane with Elon Musk today. He was on the plane having McDonald's. Yeah, he gets a Happy Meal. Yeah. He likes the toy. Yeah.
He was having McDonald's
on the Trump plane
with Elon Musk today.
The toy's so great.
Yeah, yeah.
What's Kamala getting?
She'd be getting like a...
Something fresh, I imagine.
Like a sushi.
Oh, yeah.
She'd be like a big
sashimi fan, I reckon.
Oh, you reckon
she's in the sashimi?
Yeah, chicken sashimi.
No, stop going on
about chicken sashimi.
That's a thing.
It's almost definitely not a thing.
In Japan, chicken sashimi.
Raw chicken?
Yeah.
Okay, I'm going to say that the Kamala Harris campaign
were risk adverse enough to not feed her up raw chicken sashimi
each night on the campaign trail.
Probably salmon, eh?
But I wasn't there, so I don't know. Probably salmon.
Probably salmon. But we're asking you
what is
your crazy Uber Eats
bill or do you know someone? Do you know someone
with a problem with Uber Eats?
This person wants to be anonymous. Hi,
anonymous. Hi, anonymous.
Hello, how are you? Good, thanks. This isn't you
but you're dobbing in your flatmate, anonymous.
Yes.
What's the deal?
How much are they getting Uber Eats?
So my flatmate, I've probably only seen him cook about eight times
and I've lived with him for two years.
Wow.
And I was quite curious on just like how much he would spend on Uber Eats
because the Uber Eats pull up at our house quite a bit.
And he said just on average about
$50 per meal.
Per meal? Wait, for one person
anonymous? Yeah.
Wow. And you reckon
they're Uber Eatsing every day?
Yes, at least every day of the
week. I've just done
a quick bit of math and let's say they have
some days off. Let's say
mum has them over for dinner some nights or they eat at work or something like that. Let's say they have some days off. Let's say mum has them over for dinner some nights
or they eat at work
or something like that.
Let's say they're having
Uber Eats 300
out of 365 days a week.
Do you reckon
that's fair, Anonymous?
Yeah, I think that's fair.
That's $15,000 a year
on Uber Eats.
Oh my God.
Yeah, it hurts a little, eh?
That's how much.
I can feel that
in my uterus. It hurts a lot. You'd want's how much. I can feel that in my uterus.
It hurts a lot.
You'd want to be...
15 grand.
You'd want to be really full.
You know, you wouldn't want to still be like,
I could go a little bit more for 15 grand.
I feel like I would just eat so unhealthy.
Yeah, you would.
You know, if all these options are available,
I'd be like, oh, get this or get that.
Someone else has texted in and they said,
my friend Vanessa has a big problem with DeliverEasy.
She cannot stop eating it, but she's still kind of skinny.
Well, there you go.
Someone else said.
They said, I've lived in the country my whole life
and there's no Uber Eats out there.
We've lived in town now for six weeks
and we've had Uber Eats every single weekend.
Hey, live it up. Live it up. You deserve
it. Someone else said, bruh,
Macca's is right across the
road from me, yet I still get
an Uber. You do not. Honestly,
half the time it's cheap because
you get free stuff when you get it delivered.
No, you do not. Get out and walk across the
road. That's wild.
But I also kind of
get it. Another text, chicken
sashimi is 100% a thing in Japan.
We were served it on our first night
in Osaka, having
had to order
based on pictures only.
Oh, so you accidentally ordered chicken sashimi
thinking it was fish. Did you eat it
and did you chicken sashimi
yourself after eating it?
Yeah. Or is it just something about... Or yourself after eating it? Yeah.
Or is it just something about... Or is it that fresh?
Yeah, is it that fresh?
Is the chicken that fresh?
You order the chicken shishimi at the Japanese restaurant
and you just hear...
We've got a special tonight.
It's the chicken shishit yourself.
Kerry's here.
Hi, Kerry.
Hello.
You are the complete opposite of what we're talking about.
You are an Uber Eats virgin.
Honest to God, I am.
And I could say I don't know if it's something to be embarrassed about or proud of,
but even some of my teammates at work or have said to me, you know, we'll show you.
You just get the app.
And I'm just like, there's so many apps.
I've just got so many apps.
It's pretty overwhelming, isn't it, Kerry?
And I just haven't.
And I honestly, I don't think I've even been in an Uber with somebody else,
but I've never ordered an Uber, never ordered Uber Eats.
So if you have a couple of wines, how do you get home?
Do you ring a taxi?
I've been in recovery for 14 years.
Oh, well, you don't need it.
And you know what, Kerry?
That probably counts for why you don't get
Uber Eats as well, because you're not hung over on
your Sunday mornings needing to order in a feed.
Absolutely.
I just don't, I mean,
if my son and I want to
go and get
takeaways, which we, you know,
he does every sport under the sun
and there's three nights a week that we're home late.
We'll go in and it's just something,
it's just nice to do it with another person.
And it's nice to know your locals.
Like, you know, I go to, if we do Japanese,
because I live in Devonport, we go to Asahi
and we're like, hey, Sue.
Yeah, and she's like, you want the regular
carry? You want the usual?
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I get it.
The human interaction is nice
is what you're saying, Kerry.
But hey, look, I don't judge anybody
if they do it. I just, I thought
I've never... No, I reckon you've put the nail on the
head, Kerry. I've never called.
Kerry, wait, are you saying,
Kerry, you're a first-time caller?
If I'm a virgin first-time caller, Uber eater,
whatever you want to label me, that's me.
I know, right?
Oh, there she is, our first-time caller.
Let's go, Kerry.
Yeah, baby.
We got her on the air.
Now we've got to get her in an Uber.
Oh, my God.
We should make Kerry order her first Uber when we're there
and then she orders Uber Eats while she's in the Uber.
Kerry, lovely to talk to you.
Congratulations on 14 years.
That's bloody awesome to hear.
Well done, Kerry.
Thank you so much.
Every day.
Okay, cheerio.
All right, cheerio.
See you, Kerry.
Brie and Clint.
How many?
How many?
How many?
How many? That's a good amount All right, cheerio. See you, Kerry. Brie and Clint. How many? How many? How many? How many?
That's a good amount.
This is How Many.
It's a game our producer Ella invented where you want to have the most of something to win the game.
Right, Ella?
Correct.
So we get someone to call up, and they're trying to get the most out of today's topic,
and they get to choose, based on the knowledge they know around Brie, Clint, or producer Claudia,
who to go up against and hopefully win.
That's the key.
Yes, today.
Car-based question today.
Oh, yeah, it is.
Shall I say the topic now?
Yeah, sure.
Go for it.
Yep.
Okay.
I need to figure out how to word it because I'm not a car girl, but today's topic is how
many kilometres your car has?
Ks.
Yeah.
How many kilometres on the odometer?
That's what I want. Thank you, guys.
Rhys is here to play. Hi, Rhys. Hi, Rhys.
How's it going? We're good.
Can we ask what kind of car you're in at the moment?
I'm in a
Renault Trafic. A Renault
Trafic? Ooh la la.
Are you a police officer?
No, I'm a plumber. A plumber.
The police officers are in Skodas.
Oh. Yeah, yeah, in skodas. Oh.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, Rhys.
Rhys, I want to know how many kilometres your car has.
57,963.
Okay. Okay.
57,963 for Rhys.
What year is the Renault Trafic, Rhys?
It is 2021. Oh, yeah, Rhys? It is 2021.
Oh, yeah, okay.
Racking them up.
I'll say you put a few on there.
Yeah, okay.
I feel like that's pretty low, though.
So your choice is, Rhys, to ensure that you have the most to win this game.
You need to choose whether you would like to go up against our producer Claudia's car,
Bree's car, or my car.
Would you like to know any information?
Do you want to know what sort of cars we've got?
Yeah, you can ask questions.
Yes, I would like to know what kind of cars you've got.
Okay.
I, Clint, drive a VW Golf.
I drive a Mitsubishi ASX.
And I drive a Suzuki Swift.
Breece, what does that tell you?
Not much.
I'm going to go with three.
You think you'll have
more Ks on your clock
than Bree does
on her Mitsubishi.
I will say Bree's car's newish.
Yeah, newish.
Possibly the newest.
Okay, you want to lock that in?
Claudia, how many Ks did you have?
I have got 77,838.
Okay, so you would have lost against Claudia.
Good work, Reese, eliminating Claudia.
Clint.
Reese, I can tell you my 2018 VW Golf
currently has on the clock 85,807 Ks.
Oh!
So you would have lost to me too.
Okay.
All right, it comes down to the car.
Rhys, I can tell you that my car is a 2021 model.
And the amount of Ks on the clock...
26,789.
You've won it, Reece.
Oh, good.
God, that was good from you.
I really had no idea who would have the most.
That was fun.
Reece and the Renault Traffique, congratulations.
Well done.
You've got 50 KFC chicken dollars coming out to you.
Good for plumbing.
Oh, good.
A better Kentucky Colonel for dinner. bit of Kentucky Colonel for dinner.
A bit of Kentucky Colonel for dinner.
God, you played that so well, Rhys.
I was very impressed.
Bree and Clint.
Oh, my God.
If I see one more video from Coldplay, I am going to watch it because, man, it looked
like a good show, but I'm so jealous of everybody who got to go to that show.
Such an incredible show.
They played to a sold-out Eden Park on Friday and Saturday night.
Yeah.
And Wednesday night.
And Wednesday night as well.
But what a weekend it was.
Truly incredible.
18-year-old Kiwi singer-songwriter Frankie Venter
got to join them on stage,
and she joins us in studio right now.
Kia ora, Frankie.
Hello.
Mate, what a weekend you've had.
Are you pinching yourself still?
Yeah, absolutely.
It's crazy.
It hasn't registered yet, I don't think.
Tell me, is it true, because you were invited to come play
with the boys on Friday night, and you get up on stage,
you do your thing, and then Chris invites you back
for Saturday as well?
At that point, I was like, is this actually real?
It was so nuts.
Like, they came into my dressing room straight off to sound check, their tour manager and all was like hey guys like um you did really
well in soundcheck like the band wanted to invite you back and I was like are you serious and then
we did it yeah it was nuts so so rewind how does that happen how does somebody get invited to go
on stage with the biggest band in the world um we saw that there they had a few local artists up in
the different countries that they've been to on tour to sing the song We Pray.
And they wrote their own verse for it and sent it in.
And so that's what we did.
And I absolutely thought nothing of it.
Then I got a call like the day after my 18th birthday.
And Rory was like, hey, like I have like a late birthday present for you.
And he told me and I started bawling my eyes out, literally bawling my eyes out.
And my mom ran down.
She thought that I was having a medical emergency.
And she's like, Frankie, what's going on?
Who's died?
Like, what's going on?
Are you having a fit?
Like, what's going on?
And I told her and she started crying
and then my dad was with the maintenance guy
for like the house and he started crying
in front of the maintenance guy
and then my sister started crying.
It was really crazy.
And the maintenance guy started crying.
We've got a bit of you performing with Coldplay here.
This happened at Eden Park over the weekend.
So this bit here that we're hearing, you wrote this as well.
You didn't just get up to sing it.
You wrote this verse to sing with Coldplay.
What is it like at a Coldplay show backstage?
Is it like zoo animals and platters of fruit everywhere?
Because they are huge.
They are huge.
They are huge.
Yeah.
And they've been on tour for like two years as well.
I asked them how long they've been on tour
and the tour manager was like three years.
Three years.
I said, girl, I could never do that.
I need a break.
I need my alone time.
Like, that's crazy.
Did you actually get to meet, apart from on stage,
did you get to meet Coldplay and Chris Martin?
Yeah, yeah.
I did the first sound check with them on Friday
and Chris came up to me and was like,
hi, nice to meet you, you must be Frankie.
And I was like, hey, lovely to meet you.
And I was crapping myself.
Yeah, of course.
As you do.
And he was like, oh, I love your song Layla.
And I was like, what?
Oh, thank you so much.
And so we soundchecked through the song.
Did you say, thanks, I love your song Yellow?
I'm like, I'm like.
That little album track of yours, Yellow.
Thanks, I grew up on all your music.
But I met the rest of the band.
They were so lovely.
Their team's amazing.
And then at the end of Soundcheck,
it was like the craziest thing that's ever happened to me.
Chris Martin goes to me.
Well, I can't.
I don't know.
You've got to do the full name.
Chris goes to me.
Oh, do you mind just like if we put it on the PA speakers right now and soundcheck um do you mind playing layla for us and i was like what like
right now like do you want me to sing it and he was like yeah if you feel comfortable and i said
sure and so they just searched me up on spotify the sound guy like pulled it up played it chris
starts like dancing and i'm like what is going on so i start singing my song and then halfway
through the song when like the second chorus like hits,
he looks at me and he like points down
like the big runway on the stage
and like Eden Park.
And so we like start walking down this runway together
and I was dancing to my song
and it was echoing throughout Eden Park
and I was losing it.
That is unbelievable.
Because you do hear stories about Chris Martin
and how he's such a big advocate for, you know,
musicians and
new artists.
And he always gives so much time.
So much time.
And it's so cool to hear that all of that is actually legit.
Well, we're all very proud of you.
You were flying the Kiwi flag up there.
You were doing it for all of us.
So it was very impressive.
And congratulations.
Thank you so much.
This is Frankie Venter.
She got on stage with Coldplay.
You probably saw her.
Two thirds of the country was there at the show.
You probably saw her.
Friday and Saturday night.
Yeah, it's probably old news to you.
Congrats, mate.
We'll see you again.
Thank you so much.
Thank you for having me.
I think I made maybe three trips to the Salvation Army
over the last four or five days.
Clothes?
Clothes.
Are they the clothes from when you cleared out your wardrobe?
And you said you got rid of 80%.
Yeah, I probably exaggerated a bit.
Probably 60% of my wardrobe.
But I did it, and I did it because I was like,
you know when you get in that mood and you're like,
I hate all my clothes.
I'm always in that mood.
And so I was like, oh, I need a fresh start.
So I went through ruthlessly.
And there's stuff that you've got in there that you're like,
one day I'll wear this.
You won't.
I heard someone say if you haven't, unless it's like a seasonal,
like a winter coat, if you haven't worn it in the last three months,
you won't wear it.
My partner and I always have this argument because I'm a hoarder.
Yeah.
And although there's always the conversation,
have you worn this recently?
And I'll always wear it the next day out of spite.
Out of spite.
Yeah, yeah.
And then it gives it another year.
And then it goes back in the wardrobe where it stays for another year
until it gets its resentment wear 12 months later.
Exactly.
I did the big wardrobe clean out,
but I was too nervous to commit to taking it straight
to the Salvation Army.
So it sat on a pile in the corner of my bedroom for about six weeks
and I didn't look at it once.
There wasn't one time where I was like, oh, I should wear that thing.
Nah.
So you got rid of all of it?
So I got rid of all of it.
And then some other bits like some bean bags and some.
You were telling us off air that you donate all your old undies.
And I said, I think that's a bit yuck.
You said, nah, they've got a few good wares left in them.
No, I don't donate undies.
Oh, my God, guys.
I got the best deal on undies last night.
So my undies normally $16.90 or like $17 a pair.
For the bonds.
For the bonds, for one pair. Yeah. So there's a sale17 a pair. For the Bonds. For the Bonds, for one pair.
Yeah.
So there's a sale on the Bonds website at the moment.
This is not paid or anything.
Yeah.
But they're $10.
$10 a pair of Grundy's?
$10 a pair.
$10 Grundy's for $100.
So I got $12.
Yeah.
Baker's, I should have got $13.
You should have got Baker's Dozen.
Baker's Dozen.
Yeah.
Anyway, here's my tip.
If you're like me, there's a lot of my undies that are, you know,
I've had too much wear and tear.
Yeah.
Black Friday sales.
They get a hard time, those undies.
Just replace all of them.
Start fresh.
Are you going to do that, though?
Because I know you, you like to stockpile undies.
So you're bringing 12 freshies in.
Are you going to go through the drawer and find the 12 worst pairs
and get rid of those?
Yes.
So you say it net zero for the balance of undies that you have.
Yeah.
But it's the opportunity to get rid of the ones that are see-through.
Yeah, it is time.
It's pretty easy.
I just hold them up to the light.
And if I can see through the crotch, then they're out.
Then they go.
Yeah.
But only 12.
Only 12 pairs.
Only 12 pairs.
Because there is probably more than 12 that you can see through the crop.
My point was going to be that I take this stuff to the Salvation Army
and I feel really good about it because you're like clearing stuff out of the house.
It feels so good.
You're making space.
You're giving it to charity, that sort of thing.
But I always find myself when I'm there, I'm like,
I might have a little browse.
Have a little look through the stuff.
And the idea is to downsize the stuff that you have.
You just want to be that person that finds.
The golden nugget.
You know, you hear those stories.
We talk about them on this show all the time.
I want to find a vintage Warriors jersey.
Or I want to find like an authentic Picasso or something like that.
It does happen from time to time.
Don't know about in New Zealand, but it does happen.
I got a barlina delivered to my house.
I went in there to downsize.
I ended up getting a barlina delivered to me.
What's a barlina again?
A table that you can stand at.
Okay.
Yeah, yeah.
Where are you going to put that?
In the carport somewhere.
I figured one day I would like to have beers out there,
so better have the table ready for when that day happens.
Okay.
And then I found myself like looking through the leather jackets
that were there.
I was like, oh, God, these are nice.
And then I realised it's fricking November.
You're never going to wear that.
Just get out.
Just get out.
How much were the leather jackets?
$30.
Oh, that's cheap.
$30.
That's real cheap.
Yeah. Anyway, I managed to get up. But you said's cheap. $30. That's real cheap. Yeah.
Anyway, I managed to get it.
But you said you got the big table.
I got the big, yeah, that was on my previous visit.
Oh, so that doesn't count.
No, that doesn't count.
Oh, you got the bar leaner at the previous visit.
At the previous visit, yeah.
This was a clean visit.
This was a drop off, no pick up on this visit.
Gotcha.
So I'm very proud of myself.
But at least you know when you need to get a leather jacket,
wear has good ones. Absolutely. Yeah. So I'm very proud of myself. Well, at least you know when you need to get a leather jacket, wear has good ones.
Absolutely.
Yeah.
Salvation Army, New Lynn.
And maybe, maybe if you buy a leather jacket,
you'll put your hand in the pocket and there'll be a love letter
from the guy who previously owned the jacket and it says,
to my love, Meryl, my one and only,
here is the map that'll lead you to my treasure.
Yeah, that's what I'm hoping for, yeah.
And then it just is a map to the pub down the road.
Where the barlina came from.
Where the barlina is.
The circle of life.

Breeinclint.
So I want to talk about this Swedish minister.
I believe she is the Swedish minister
for gender equality and work life.
Her name's Paulina Brandberg, and she's in the news at the moment
because some of her emails have been leaked.
Oh, okay.
Some of her work emails have been leaked.
Apparently a local newspaper has published some of her work emails.
I could be wrong about this, but I think when you are a minister,
like a public government minister.
They have to be public.
Your email is a public property.
Like you can submit what's called an OIA,
which is an official information request,
and you can get the emails from ministers.
That seems very invasive.
Doesn't it?
Doesn't it? Doesn't it?
Yeah.
I don't know if that's true, but I think it is.
Well, these emails have been published,
so they're public knowledge.
And some of the emails show that this minister, Paulina,
had requested that there be no traces of bananas
in certain rooms
that she was staying in due to a strong allergy.
And she also made it clear to other people she was working with
to not have bananas anywhere in the vicinity of where she would be
or where she was going.
She's allergic to bananas.
Apparently she has a banana phobia.
Right, that she's playing off as an allergy.
But she says that she's allergic because she's so terrified of them.
And she has now told the newspaper, because she's commented on it,
that she is getting professional help with the phobia because it's so bad.
It's been covered on this show a bit,
but I can actually relate to her.
Bananas in particular.
I find bananas hard to deal with.
I have a...
I feel so stupid to say it.
I have a fruit phobia, okay?
I don't like overripe fruit
or fruit that has been opened or handled by somebody else.
Claudia, bring in the old fruit.
No.
Just kidding.
We don't have any old fruit, you weirdo.
You're so weird.
Bananas for me, and I'll stop after this.
Bananas for me, very, very small window of acceptable.
It's right on the cusp between too green and
just yellow. I need them
just after. They're not going to hurt your tummy.
They're not so green they hurt your tummy.
But not so yellow. Who are you, freaking
Goldilocks? I know.
I know. But it's my thing.
I'm pretty normal otherwise.
What about how you eat apples
too fast and you get the hiccups? It's part of the
fruit phobia. I don't like it browning off in my hand.
No one likes it browning off in your hand, do you?
You can talk with your phobia over there.
My phobia is quite common, I will say.
Doesn't mean it's normal.
I think it's actually quite a common phobia.
Tell us about your little holy thing.
My weird phobia, according to Clint, is called
trypophobia and
I have a fear of clusters
of little holes
or groups of holes.
Just because you know the name of
your phobia doesn't mean it's any
less weird than mine, okay?
I know it's weird.
I think it's quite common.
Bree can't handle looking at a...
I'm getting uncomfortable already thinking about it.
It makes me itchy.
I feel bad for you because you can't enjoy a crumpet.
Oh, no.
No crumpet.
I eat the bottom side.
Really?
Yeah, from the bottom.
Eat it from the bottom to the top.
That's some wet-ass crumpet.
Would you, like, get someone else to prepare it?
Because the beauty of a crumpet is the butter in all of
the holes and how it soaks in the holes.
Will you get someone else to butter them and then could you have two
crumpets sandwiched together? I actually
don't think I could eat it. Really?
I would know. Your tongue would find the holes.
It's like, um, it's like, um,
yeah, it always
does. It always does.
Tongue knows the way. It's like a GPS beacon.
It's like a beagle, that tongue.
It's like that, what's that real disgusting looking pudding thing?
Chia pudding.
Chia pudding doesn't even have holes in it.
Oh, but it's like a...
It's got little beady things in it.
Oh, yes, I hate it.
How did you go with, they don't do it anymore,
but how did you go with face scrubs that had microbeads in them?
Yeah, I couldn't use it.
Really?
Oh, there's just certain things.
Like, there's so many things that I will not say
because then what always happens is people then,
like, they'll send me pictures of clusters of holes
to, like, my Instagram and stuff.
And look, it is funny, but don't do it.
I have a physical reaction to it. Like, it is funny, but don't do it. I have a physical reaction
to it. Like, it makes me feel physically
ill. The fear of fruit is called
fructophobia.
There you go. I've got a name too. Fructophobia?
Yeah, yeah. Okay. There's also
cybophobia, which is a fear of food and
beverages. And banana phobia.
What's that called? The rare
fear of bananas.
So that's a rare one? Yeah, yeah.
Okay.
Yeah.
We want to know what's your weird phobia?
Someone said, do you struggle with potholes, Brie?
If so, don't come to Christchurch.
Potholes are fine, right?
Potholes are fine.
Because the hole is so large that it doesn't matter.
Nah.
It's a small cluster of holes.
And normally like where it's a pattern.
Yeah.
Crumpets.
Crumpets are the perfect example.
Crumpets is the perfect example.
Yeah, I hate it.
0800 dial ZM or text 9696.
We have been very brave.
Yep.
We have shared with you our weird phobias.
Now we want you to share with us.
What is yours?
Brian Clint.
There's a Swedish minister by the name of Paulina Brandberg
who's in the news today because she has a very rare
and weird phobia of bananas.
We found out what the technical name for it is.
It's banana phobia.
Bananarama.
Yeah.
Genuinely, it's banana phobia.
It's a banana phobia.
She's terrified of them. Everyone else gets like a very intricate name. She gets banana phobia. It's a banana phobia. She's terrified of them.
Everyone else gets like a very intricate name.
She gets banana phobia.
It's easy.
At least it's easy to say.
Yeah.
I reckon it's the smell.
That's what always gets me with the bananas.
The smell of a ripe banana.
Oh, I'd rather smell a dirty nappy.
So you're never putting your ripe bananas into a bag
and you put them in the freezer and you go,
these will be great for banana bread.
My wife does.
She does that.
Yeah.
And I find it disgusting.
But I do enjoy the banana bread.
So I'm a hypocrite.
I am a hypocrite.
You know?
Yeah, don't think about it too much because all that dirty, old, overripe banana is all through that banana bread.
Don't even try and put me off my wife's baking.
Can't happen.
Nicky's here.
Hi, Nicky.
Hi, Nicky.
Hi.
Tell us, mate, what's your unusual phobia?
I have a phobia of chewing gum while it's being chewed or afterwards.
It's disgusting.
Yeah, I know about that one. Is it you chewing it or just anyone chewing it?
Or anyone chewing it.
I've had to ban it from my house because I just cannot stand it.
Can you chew it?
Is your phobia so bad you can't even put it in your mouth?
No, no, I wouldn't.
I have to take it out.
That's the gross bit.
You've chewed it and all the crap off your teeth has gone in.
I love hearing how triggered people are.
Yeah.
That's kind of morbid.
Chewing gum.
My dentist has told me it's actually good for you.
Yeah.
Sugar-free gum. My daughter stepped and used chewing gum at the playground the other day. Oh, there's nothing worse me, is actually good for you. Yeah. Sugar-free gum.
My daughter stepped and used chewing gum at the playground the other day.
Oh, there's nothing worse.
Oh, there's nothing worse.
Someone on the text machine said,
my unusual fear is a fear of buttons.
I'm in my 40s and can tell you none of my clothes have any buttons at all.
I've heard of that, yeah.
Interesting.
They said, I have a physical reaction where I feel sick.
If I touch buttons, both my daughters love button-down tops,
and once they could afford to buy their own clothes,
they started buying them because I would never dress them
in anything that had buttons on it.
I'm always interested with that.
Can you do domes or is it just those push-through buttons
that trigger you?
There'd be so many things.
How do you do it at the top of your jeans?
I was going to say, what about a pair of jeans?
Does your jeans not have a button?
Zip them to a point and then what?
Yeah.
Just flapping around at the top.
Are all your pants drawstring?
Elastic waistband.
Hey, not a bad way to live.
Tegan's here.
Hi, Tegan.
Hi, Tegan.
Hi.
What's your weird phobia, Tegan?
I'm scared of butterflies.
You're scared of butterflies.
Butterflies.
And would you say it's butterflies and moths?
Because I feel like people are very scared of moths.
Or is it just butterflies?
It's just butterflies.
What are you scared of, do you reckon, Tegan?
I guess it's just the fact when I get close and, like,
they try to land on me.
They're unpredictable, eh?
I just get tired of, like, them getting close.
Yeah, fair enough.
Yeah, okay.
People with the moths, they're scared of the dust that's on the wings.
That's because moths are like an ugly butterfly.
And they've made horror movies about moths.
I get the moth thing.
I get the moth thing.
Butterflies, pretty cute.
This is good therapy.
Renee, what's your weird phobia?
I just get really
terrified of not taking
pills but always that they're going to get stuck
in my throat. Oh, yes.
You're not alone there. You're not alone,
Renee. That's what I thought
and so I've researched and I've tried to find
out it must be a thing because it's
actually terrifying.
You don't have to take them up the other end,
do you, Renee?
No.
Suppositories for Renee.
What are you more fearful of? Is it following one or sticking one on your bottom?
To be honest, Renee...
Oh, it's really terrifying.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I put one on the other end and nearly choked on that one time.
No, you put it way too high.
Way too far.
You put it way too far. Way too far. Way too far.
I was all too far.
I'm going to try this.
Someone said they've got side-dong-lo-bo-phobia,
which is a fear of cotton wool.
Yuck, nasty stuff.
Can't touch it, hear it, or think about it.
Someone else said,
I have a fear of reusable crockery and cutlery
because I know someone's mouth has been on them or around them.
They then text back and said, yes, I have O's mouth has been on them or around them.
They then text back and said, yes, I have OCD and yes, I'm in therapy.
Yeah, okay.
Well, good for you.
Good for you for addressing it.
But I also, I kind of get it.
I genuinely have tocophobia, which is the fear of pregnancy and pregnant people.
Wow.
So what happens?
I wonder if that's a man or a woman.
And I wonder if they've had children or if they ever think they will have children.
Yeah, like imagine if you have that fear and you're a woman and you want kids.
Exactly.
What do you do?
What do you do?
Oh, it's going to be a rough nine months.
Isn't it?
And then, oh, you go to antenatal group and everybody's bloody pregnant. Oh my God, that's your worst nightmare.
I know it's PC, but I have a fear of little people.
I can't watch a TV program that has any little people in nightmare. I know it's PC, but I have a fear of little people.
I can't watch a TV program that has any little people in it.
I have to change the station.
Also, if I see one in person, then I have to walk away and not look at them.
I'm sorry if anyone is offended by this.
I know it's bad.
Oh, yeah.
I mean, that might be one.
You could definitely get over that in therapy.
Yeah, you could.
You know?
I mean, anything really you could get over in therapy.
Someone said, I'm petrified of ET.
I've got no issues with aliens in general, but ET, that long neck, wrinkly skin,
and abnormally gross long finger puts the shits up me.
Finally, Anonymous is here.
Hi, Anonymous.
Hi, Anonymous.
Hello, how are you?
Good, thanks. Tell us, what's your unusual phobia?onymous is here. Hi, Anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hello, how are you? Good, thanks.
Tell us, what's your unusual phobia?
Mine is balloons.
Balloons.
I've heard this one quite a few times.
Is it the squeaking noise that they make when they rub together, Anonymous?
I think it's the, as well as their unpredictability,
they just pop so randomly.
Yeah, yeah.
You might be halfway through blowing it up and it just pops pops or, you know, it's hanging and it pops.
Is it just balloons?
Is that your main phobia?
Because that's not too bad if that's it.
Mine is balloons and I also message through my friend is scared of cucumbers.
What do you mean?
Like, just absolutely terrified of them.
What did your friend do when the recent cucumber salad was trending?
Oh, no.
Didn't go on the internet.
Just avoided everything.
Honestly, they've got the same reaction.
You know with cats, how they jump when they see a snake-type shape object?
They do the exact same thing and they're a little squeal when they see a cucumber.
Really?
That's kind of cute.
I'd be constantly
placing one of those big telegraph cucumbers
around my friend just to see her scream.
100% it happened in high school.
Oh, that's mean though.
That's so mean.
Well, thank you for your honesty, everybody. That was very brave from
all of us. One last one. They said
my weird phobia is apricot
skin rubbing on the inside of your lips.
So specific. So lips. So specific.
So random.
So specific.
So random.
I hate it.

Do you like it, Roxy?
Oh, I love it.
You can't help but sing along.
Yeah.
It's a banger from Mariah.
She's incredible.

Oh, yeah.
Time for an upgrade.
Yeah, that's a great adult purchase.
I'm into that.
Yeah, yeah.

But before we get into my birthday,
I just wanted to say,

18th of March, 1978.
All right.
That means you were 16 in 1994.
And, Mel, this is your birthday banger.
Mel, look at Mr Jones counting crows. It's a bit of Mr. Jones counting crows.
It's a banger.
Oh, that just gave me a physical, visceral reaction.
I feel like we've got to vote for it.
I'm going it.
Mr. Jones counting crows.
If we have done it, we haven't done it in a long, long time.
A long time.
If Mel's into it, you keen, Mel?
Definitely.
All right, here we go.
Here's the winner of Birthday Banger for Mel from the year 1994.
It's The Counting Crows on ZM.
Brian Clint. The winner of Birthday Banger today for Mel from the year 1994
is The Counting Crows on ZM.
Counting Crows, One Hit Wonder?
No, they had...
What else?
What else is in the system?
Pea Paradise.
They did one of those.
No, that was Big Yellow Taxi.
Yeah, they did a Big Yellow Taxi.
What?
They did that song as well? Yeah, it's been covered by these people. Oh, but that Big Yellow Taxi. Yeah, they did a Big Yellow Taxi. What? They did that song as well?
Yeah, it's been covered by these people.
Oh, but that's not their original.
No, but they got one away with it.
Theirs is pretty recognisable.
Counting Crows version of Big Yellow Taxi.
I'm sure it is.
I'm just waiting to hear it and then I can decide.
Yeah.
Who else is the woman on it?
Vanessa
Carlton?
Vanessa Carlton.
Vanessa Carlton, yeah.
She was the one that did...
Oh, no, no, no, no, no.
Counting Crows have got a Shrek hit as well.
Oh, see, this is...
Yeah.
An original, Counting Crows?
Yeah, this is a banger.
I'm accidentally in love.
Yeah. I'm accidentally... Yeah, that's a banger. I'm accidentally in love.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I'm accidentally.
Yeah, that's a banger.
For sure.
That might do us.
Anything else?
I made a song called Round Here, which you might know too.
Go on, play it.
Round here.
I said play it, not sing it. No, I don't have the hook for it.
Okay.
Okay, fair enough.
If you can't recognise it from that bit, you don't know it.
Yeah, that was solid.
Round here.
Solid.
It's not even a
Soft Rock Thursday on Bree and Clint, but
Soft Rock Monday hits just as hard.
Yeah, we go soft every day.
Bree and Clint. Who wants to know what New
Zealand's most stolen car is? Me.
You do? Yeah, you do? Me. Claudia, you want to know what New Zealand's most stolen car is? Me. You do?
Yeah, you do?
Claudia, you want to know what New Zealand's most stolen car is?
Yes, please.
I can steal one.
True.
Claudia, I'm joking.
Anybody car thieves listening to the show, this is information, you know,
because does it mean the car is the easiest to steal or does it mean that it's the best one to steal because it's the most popular?
I'd say easiest.
Easiest? I'll tell you now,
the winning car doesn't strike me as an easy one to steal.
But I mean, I haven't stolen many
cars, so I don't know. Just that one time,
eh? Just that one time. What about that other
time? Oh, sorry, we don't talk about that. We don't talk about that one.
We can't talk about that on air.
New Zealand's new
most stolen car is...
Do you guys want to guess what it is?
Oh, please.
A Nissan Skyline.
You want to lock in a Nissan Skyline?
Yeah, why not?
I've owned one of those, but I paid money for it.
What car do I have?
It's not a Skyline.
Subaru Outback.
Subaru Outback has been the most stolen car before.
Has it?
But there's fewer and fewer Subaru Outbacks.
Like, no one's importing us.
The new ones are cool.
Have you seen the new ones?
I think they're harder to steal now because they've got frames around the windows on the doors.
They need to up the security.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's not a Subaru.
Ella, what do you reckon?
Demio.
Mazda Demio.
Yeah, they're known to be stolen.
You're the closest.
You picked the only car that's in the top ten.
Oh, well, thank you.
But it's not number one.
Okay.
New Zealand's most stolen car currently is Toyota Hilux Ute.
What?
Wow.
Is it?
Do you know why?
Oh, my gosh, here's a theory.
Builders might have that car, and there's a lot of expensive tools in those cars.
That is the smartest thing you've said on this show all year
I reckon. That might be the smartest thing you've ever
said. It might be the most
astute observation you've ever made.
You've peaked.
I think go home early for the day.
That was very good from you.
And I'm being genuine.
That was very smart from you.
171 Hilux
utes were stolen in the last six months in New Zealand.
How many?
171 Hilux Utes.
That's a lot.
That's a heap.
The top four most stolen vehicles in New Zealand are all tradie vehicles.
Second was a high-ace van.
Third was a Ford Courier.
And fourth was a Nissan Navara Ute.
So all Utes.
Dang.
I'm surprised Courier trucks don't get stolen
more because they've got all the goodies in them.
The packages. How tempted
do you reckon you'd be if you were a Courier?
You know, a postie.
Ella, did you hear me say you've just undone all your good work?
I literally just said Toyota
HiAce van and Ford Courier
which are the things that Courier drivers
Yeah, I heard that and that inspired me to say...
Yeah, good point, good point.
It's good to see criminals stealing something
that they can use to do an honest day's work in, you know?
Steal a ute and then take up a trade.
I'm not sure that's how it works.
No, I think that's what's happening.
Really?
Yeah, they put the tool belt on.
The rest of the top 10 most stolen cars,
Toyota Aqua, Holden Commodore.
People are still stealing Holden Commodores.
Yeah, they'd love to race them.
They collect those items now, you know,
because you can't get them anymore.
Subaru Legacy, Toyota Corolla, Ford Ranger,
and then, of course, Ella's pick, the Mazda Demio.
Yep.
So, yeah.
Okay.
What about Golfs?
No, no Golfs on the list.
What about Swifts?
No, no Swifts on the list. Too swifts? No, no swifts on the list
Too safe
Too safe, yeah, yeah, yeah
Indestructible
Too common, I think
Oh, nah, I wouldn't say that
What?
Common is muck
Nah
I'd say very special
And people that drive them are really hot
Yeah, holy
I would have to agree
Yeah
Yeah
Bree and Clint
And that is the end of the show, everybody
Thank you so much for joining us today
Woohoo
It's so nice and sunny outside Life is starting to feel good again It does, doesn't it? Clint. And that is the end of the show, everybody. Thank you so much for joining us today. Woo-hoo!
It's so nice and sunny outside.
Life is starting to feel good again.
It does, doesn't it?
You don't realise how big of a difference it makes.
Oh, it's huge.
It's huge. I keep going.
Is it summer?
Maybe is it summer?
It's getting there.
It's getting there.
If you want a TV recommendation, I've been banging on about it all day today,
you should watch The Day of the Jackal, which is a new show on TVNZ+.
There's five episodes out and then another five episodes to come.
It's Eddie Redmayne, who is an assassin and he's like a master of disguise.
It's very good.
It's very sort of high, looks high budget.
Okay.
Yeah.
Well, there you go.
Good tip.
