Hi everybody, welcome to the Brie, Clint, Claudia and Mad Dog Podcast.
Speaking of dogs, my two dogs have been going to school.
Dog school.
Are they learning math?
So it's like...
Are they learning Chinese?
No, they pick them up and then they go to this farm and they go on pack walks and they get socialised with other dogs
and they teach them stuff and that kind of thing.
And then they post all the photos onto their Facebook page
and I get to see every time they go to school.
It's so cute.
I know that feeling, the cattery that we put our cats in at Christmas.
Do they do that too?
They do the same thing.
And always leafing through the album, I'm like, get out get out of here every other stupid cat i only want to see my cat
clint when are you going away because i might be able to house it and i want to touch your cats
okay we can you want to touch his puss is yeah this can this can absolutely be arranged but i
am away from the 16th to the 26th but but it could be rearranged. No, that could be perfect.
Alright, well.
You could dip your hands all over my...
Can my guinea pigs
come? They might get eaten.
Why don't you want to stay at my house
and dog-sit my dogs? I'm a cat
person. When are you away?
I can look after the dog. Okay.
I've got a chicken hutch
on the new house property
That the guinea pigs
Could probably live in
Okay done
If the cats eat them though
Clint's not liable
No that's fine
My cats are security guards
So hopefully yours are too
My cats are stupid
So they probably won't
Are they still weeing
And pooing in the house?
Are you still collecting
Their cats?
Are they?
Daily
Daily
One of the cats
Is doing a daily Indoor wee in the same spot.
What's the spot?
On one hand, I'm like, I'm glad it's the same spot so I know where it is.
On the other hand, this part of the house is going to be ruined.
It's on carpet.
It's on carpet.
I was going to ask.
Carpet.
Why don't you block that spot?
In our bedroom.
Close the door.
It's in your bedroom.
I can't block that spot because she'll pee on whatever I put
in there. She's peed. I put tinfoil down.
Look at this picture.
I don't want to see Cat pee on tinfoil.
They say put tinfoil down.
This is what I heard because Cat's scared
of the tinfoil. Why is Cat Wee so
disgusting? And they won't touch it. Look.
She pissed all over it.
She scrunched up the tinfoil
and pissed on it. Yeah, because cats like to scrunch up the
They like to scratch
Look how dehydrated that cat is
Yeah, need some water
You should have seen on this secret
Thing where I just was
There was
Where were you?
You were away?
Yeah, well I was away for a bit
I didn't notice
Where we were
On the property that we were
They had cats And they had these't notice. Where we were, on the property that we were, they had cats.
They had these three cats.
And when we were eating lunch, the cats would, you know,
hang around and try and get some food.
And I'll never forget this.
One day, one of the guys that we were there with,
he feeds one of the cats a piece of chicken.
Oh, yeah.
And the cat, you know, loving it, has the piece of chicken.
And then this cat, I'm not joking, has the piece of chicken, turns around,
puts its tail and
pisses all over him.
He's like, you're
my chicken guy now. And then the people
come out and they go, don't feed the cats,
they'll piss on you. That's their thing?
Yeah.
You know how cats, when they piss,
their tail goes like a sprinkler.
I don't know what I'm going to do with this cat, by the way.
I'll have it.
Yeah, we'll have it.
Which cat is it?
Which one?
I had to collect a urine sample from her the other day and take it to the vet because there's a risk.
I saw how much urine you collected.
How did you collect so much?
How good did I do, eh?
That's more than a human wee urine sample.
I've always wanted to know that.
People didn't listen to the Instagram video and they thought it was my urine sample.
You're like, here's my wee.
People are like, bro, drink some water.
I really hope that this podcast isn't the first podcast that people are listening to.
Because you don't think it would hook people in.
Nah, nah.
Start as you mean to proceed.
Honestly.
You don't want to, you know.
We talk about cat pee a lot.
Do we?
Do we?
I mean, we've done it.
Do we want to do?
Last week.
We talk about whatever is dominating our life at the time.
And currently cat piss is dominating my life.
Yes, Ella?
Well, because we're on the topic of piss,
have you ever been curious to know how much pee you pee?
Yes.
Shall we, as a collective team, measure how much?
I've always wanted to do this thing where we try and drink heaps and heaps of water
and the first person to go, and then we see how long of a wee we can do.
So we go for the longest wee.
Oh, yeah.
And we time it.
So maybe we all wake up at like 8, that's a good amount of time, 8 a.m.
We tell each other, okay.
God, what world are you living in? He goes, I'd love to wake
up at 8. In this exercise, I've been up for
two hours and desperately needing to go to the toilet.
So yeah. No, we start,
everyone starts at 8, so you can't have any water
until 8am. And then
we all have two litres or however many there's a lot. I don't have any
water before 8am anyway. Good. I probably don't either.
Two litres, I don't know how much is lots.
And then we test it out.
So wait, what are we testing?
How long we don't pee for.
Whose pee is more yellow?
Yeah.
Or who can hold it the longest?
Why?
Science, baby.
Science.
I think we go for the longest way.
Alright.
I'm actually sick that day.
I would like to volunteer Bowie as tribute.
At least it's not Ziggy, the other one,
who's caused you heaps of bloody problems and heaps of money.
So at least now they're spreading it out.
She's on fucking thin or as fast care.
Which one, Bowie or Ziggy?
Bowie.
Bowie.
Ziggy, through all of her problems,
I hate being a weird cat guy, by the way,
but through all her problems, she was always like,
heal me. I love i'm really
sick and i'm costing thousands of dollars but i love you oh we'll see that bowie's like what up
motherfuckers thanks for the new house i'm gonna piss on all of it i'm like you entitled little
new little shit so and so don't worry if you want to if you want to change the topic my new dog
um likes to eat the poo out of my other dog's bum as it's coming out.
That's so nice.
That's podcast.
Yeah.
No, we've got the behavior.
We've gone too far.
We've tried to get the behavior and it's slowly going away.
But, you know, you've got to be quick.
Okay.
Out of the bum.
Yuck.
Claudia's just put a button on my wall called small fart.
I will not be playing this.
Play it.
Play it.
Play it.
What's a small fart sound like?
Is that one of mine or is that a sound effect?
Play it again.
Play it again.
No.
That's a big one.
You guys can do the pee test with Maddie, by the way,
who's filling in for me for the next week. I reckon he'll be keen.
Would he be keen?
I reckon he'd probably be keen.
So, wait, what's the pee test?
What are we actually testing?
Yeah, are we testing volume or are we testing endurance?
Ella's gone.
Ella's gone.
Farts are funny. I don't care who you are
They're funny
They're very very funny
She's crying a little bit
I'm fine
Tui's just started to find them really funny
Does she?
Her own
Yes
Can you hear it when she farts?
They're the mess
Amazing
I love little kids
And they always sneak up on her and she's always like, oh.
Does she say pardon? We are slowly introducing that.
You know what's really weird is my new dog. I don't want her to feel bad for doing
them. I don't want her to feel like she should be ashamed.
Say excuse me. Yeah, because it's not a big deal.
You know, my new dog, how weird is this? And Claude, can you answer this to me?
When she farts, I can hear it.
Oh, yeah.
Kai did that once, but it wasn't like a big one.
It was just one that was like whispery.
Nah, we can hear hers all the time.
It sounds like a human fart.
It's messed up.
Let's rename her Whispering Jack.
Whispering.
Fluffy.
Fluffy.
Fluffy Fluffy Fluffy Literally
Guys
I think something's wrong
With my gut
Like
Alright
Do you have to fart
No it's just bad
Are you sure
You don't have to fart
Try and push one out
Okay I will
Oh
Dirty
Let me try again
Ella
No more
No more
You'll get a hernia
Or a hemorrhoid

I think that'll entice
people to listen

for the podcast
excuse you

write it down
we're golden I reckon
done for the day
done for the day
that'll be
alright shall we
that's all she wrote
I'm coming in
well howdy, pilgrim.
Play it, play it.
Yeah.
Hi, everybody, and welcome to the Brie and Clint show.
G'day, guys.
The last ever Brie and Clint show.
Oh, the last one ever.
I've got to go and have surgery
tomorrow and it feels pretty dramatic to me.
You're so dramatic. If there's anything you
want to say to me, today is the day.
You'll be fine
is probably the thing I'd say to you.
How do you know I'll be fine? Because
I've had a million surgeries
and I think it's more daunting.
Guess what? I've had none.
This is what I'm saying. It's so daunting for you because you've been so blessed and so lucky
that you've never had to have a surgery.
Yeah, but how do you know that I'll be fine?
How do you know that my body won't react badly to something, you know?
Oh, well, you never know.
What if I'm allergic to latex?
Well, I'm allergic to latex.
Found that out the hard way.
Explain some of your life choices.
Work smarter, not harder.
You'll be fine, but if not, we love you and good luck.
Bon voyage.
Bon voyage.
All right.
Yeah, yeah, good, yeah, good.
Are you actually nervous?
I am actually quite nervous.
And to be honest, like if I was you,
I mean, I've had a similar surgery on my nose.
Yeah.
It's not fun.
I'm having a nose job, by the way, everybody.
You're having a rhinoplasty?
No, I'm having a septoplasty.
Oh.
That's an inside nose job, not an outside nose job.
Are you sure?
You're not getting both at the same time?
Well, I did consider it.
Yeah.
I did too when I had my septoplasty.
My brothers bullied me about my nose growing up. Yeah. I did too when I had my septoplasty.
My brothers bullied me about my nose growing up.
They said I had a pig nose.
That's what my sister said about me. Did she?
They said I had an upturned pig nose
that my nostrils pointed out, not down.
That's so weird.
You do have big nostrils.
All right, all right.
Which is weird because you can't breathe.
So you'll be fine.
It is not nice and it's daunting,
but you will be okay
When you wake up from surgery
Yeah
Hopefully they've given you the good drugs
We had Georgia
When Georgia was filling in for you last week
Yeah
Because she had her big surgery
Yes
She's in Woman's Day this week
Talking about her big surgery
I know she looks amazing
She had it
She's worse than me
Obviously I don't have as much to complain about
as her.
She had a tumour cut
out of her leg.
Yeah.
She said the painkillers
they put her on
caused her.
What, they put them
in her bum?
I don't know if she's
listening at the moment.
Is she listening?
No.
They blocked her up.
Oh yeah, stay away from.
No, I don't want to say that.
She said she had a bad incident
due to her painkillers
to do with a white rug.
Put it that way.
Oh, no.
A white rug and painkillers.
Can I just say, make sure you buy the laxatives before the surgery.
And I think that was the issue, yeah.
So I'll get on to that.
Thank you very much.
Do that.
And thank you for your kind words.

Hi, Roxy.
Hi, Roxy.
Hello, guys.
How are you?
You ever eaten cat food before, Roxy?
I haven't, but my brother has.
What the hell?
Roxy, why?
Okay, to be fair, my brother was drunk and he was sitting in a corner and someone went
to take the cat food off him and he started throwing it at them saying, leave me alone.
It's my cat food. Oh, and he started throwing it at them, saying, leave me alone, it's my cat food.
Oh, my land. I forgot your big intro.
Anyway, Roxy's here to play for the ladies.
She's 34, and she's from Pukekohe.
She's taking on our tradie.
He's from Wellington.
He's 21, and he can open an oyster with his eyes closed
and his hands behind his back.
Nah, that's a lie.
Welcome to the show, Joseph.
Joseph, dare I ask
what you open the oyster with?
Um, my hands?
No, but they're tied behind your back.
A knife.
I do open it with a knife.
But your hands, you do it behind
your back. I can actually, but
not like fully. I kind of open it a little
bit in front of me and then I can do it behind my back.
Call us when you can open a can of cat food behind your back
with your ice cream.
That's what we need.
Or an oyster with your feet.
Now that I'd like to see.

And she's saving on all the Pack and Save deals.
Yeah, yeah.
She's there for meat week.
She's like, I need to get that deal they're having on hash browns.
It's $5 a week and she's there and you're looking at the price of cheese
and you're like, far out.
And then you look up and there's Beyonce and you're like, far out.
And she's got four blocks of cheese.
You're like, damn, she is rich.
Have other half live.
That's the question we've got for you this afternoon.
Who's the really famous person you saw doing a really normal thing?
There's so many good texts coming through on this.
Someone said, I saw Sean
Fitzpatrick walking his dog and then his dog took a poo.
Anytime you see an all black captain, I feel like that's
good stuff. That's good. Someone else said, I saw Jackie Chan playing
poker in Vegas one time. Really? That's amazing.
Did you really or did you accidentally
stumble onto the set
of Rush Hour 3?
Oh, they do have
a lot of poker scenes
and casino scenes,
don't they?
Someone else said,
I saw Coolio, RIP,
ordering chicken nuggets
at a McDonald's
in Leicester Square
in 2003.
Damn.
I saw Pierce Brosnan
riding a bike shirtless.
Amazing. I love it. Let's go to Jess. Hi, Jess. Hi, I saw Pierce Brosnan riding a bike shirtless.
Amazing.
I love it. Let's go to Jess.
Hi, Jess. Hi, Jess. Hey, guys.
Tell us, Jess, who was the famous person you saw doing something really
relatable? Oh, jeepers, it's going
back a few years, but it was Mark Ellis
and he came into my
golf club. I was working there at the time he came in.
He had a ham sandbow and a point.
Yeah.
And it was hilarious. I got his autograph and everything.
I remember it really clearly. And it was around the time
that Pulp Sport and
Ham, they were very much like this.
Sports Cafe.
Sports Cafe.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And he also saw Pity Weepo.
Oh yeah? Okay, yep, good.
And the Mercer McDonald's.
That's so good.
Pity Weepo at the Mercer McDonald's. That's so good. Paddy Weeper at the Mercer McDonald's.
He'd give you an autograph too.
He's a good man.
James is here.
Hi, James.
G'day, James.
G'day, g'day.
How's it going?
Tell us, James, who's the famous person you saw doing something really normal?
This was Channing Tatum.
I was in Melbourne getting a coffee at Duke's Coffee and went and ordered a flat white and waited
over by the bench.
And then I was just sitting on my phone there and this guy came up standing next to me a
couple of seconds later and fumbling around with his backpack and his passport and his
keys and he dropped his keys and passport.
And I thought, oh, should I bend over and help him pick it up?
And then looked down and I was like, oh, shit, that's Channing Tatum.
And James, what exact cafe was this?
And can you give me the address?
It was a few years ago.
It's Duke's Coffee.
Yeah.
Did you get Channing Tatum's coffee order?
What does a big unit like Mr. Tatum have?
He'd have a long black, I reckon.
He'd have a macchiato if I know my friend Channing Tatum.
He loves a macchiato.
From memory, I think they have like black, white and filter at those places.
Right.
And does he get a small, regular or an XXL?
Well, I don't even think they had the XXL.
I'm pretty sure it was just a regular size.
Yeah, and I was just making a magic mic joke.
That's all good.
To be honest, he was pretty regular sized.
Was he?
Yeah, he was.
In all the years of us trying to meet Channing Tatum,
we've never actually met the man.
No.
And you said he's not that big, James?
No, like I'm about 179, 180, and he was pretty much on par with me.
Okay.
What did you say?
179, 180?
I was going, he's taller than me.
Taller than me, Clint.
Which is all I need to know.
Yeah.
I love that.
Someone texted her and they said,
I saw Jamie Lee Curtis at the movies with her feet up on the chair in LA.
Hey, this text is not okay.
Someone just said, I saw Clint Roberts at the gym.
I've never seen a praying mantis lift weights before.
Excuse me.
I'll get my pump on.
Thank you very much.
There's so many good texts coming through on this.
Emma, who's the famous person you saw doing a normal thing?
Well, I was on a flight to Fiji with my, he was, I don't know, two, maybe one year old son And Will.i.am was on the same plane
No way
Wow, was he in economy or was he in business class?
Yeah, so it was a Fiji flight out of Wellington
And they only had one area for people to sit, for passengers to sit.
So there was no business class.
There was no different seats.
And he was at the front of the plane, and I was near the bed,
and my little boy was running up the aisle,
and he reached down and picked him up.
He was like, is this yours?
And I was like, yes, I'm coming.
I was like, oh, my God, that is Will.i.am.
Will.i.am doing that?
He was really lovely.
So then my son, who ran up and down the aisle,
backwards and forwards between me and Will.i.am.
There you go.
It's a good claim to fame.
Will.i.am picked up your kid.
He'll write a song about it.
Time to go to LA and get the latest with Dean McCarthy.
From iHeart Radio, this is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy. From iHeartRadio, this is The Latest.
Live from LA with Dean McCarthy.
Dean, this is such a strange story,
and we actually talked about it last week,
and now it's happening.
BTS are joining the military.
They are.
So if you are an able-bodied man
between the age of 18 and 28 in South Korea,
you're expected to serve about two years in the military.
A lot of countries have this, actually.
And what's fascinating about this is that they were given, basically, by a judge, approval
to extend this.
They're about almost 30.
I think the eldest one's 29 and the youngest might be 24 or something.
But they were given permission to extend it and not have to go into the army immediately
when they were, you know, the biggest pop stars in the whole world.
But now they're taking a break, as you might know,
and they are actually all going to go and serve two years in the military.
What's cool about it, I don't know if it's cool,
but they're actually going to be given permission to perform
if there is the opportunity.
So they'll be in the military,
but if there's, like, a really good consul or something,
they can all, like, take a leave of absence to go and perform.
What I think is wild is that, like,
I don't know whether they really should be doing the military when they are so famous.
Would that cause, like, imagine a military store.
It's like when Elvis got enlisted into the army, you know,
and he was very famous at the time, and it was a massive news story,
and there was so much surrounding him doing it.
Are they going to get bullied by the other soldiers
for being in a boy band?
I don't think it's cool at all.
I think compulsory military conscription
is a shocking thing to have to do.
Especially at the moment.
This is South Korea we're talking about.
It borders North Korea.
There's every chance that BTS could get pulled
into some kind of conflict.
And they're pop stars.
Yeah, it's pretty wild to think that countries still have rules like that.
Yeah.
You know?
Although, if I was in an opposing army and BTS,
I saw across the enemy lines there was BTS, I'd be like...
White flag.
Oh, my God, yeah, white flag, surrender.
Can I get a photo, please?
Fangirl.
White flag.
That's the latest.
All right, Dino.
Live out of Los Angeles
with our Hollywood correspondent
Dean McCarthy.
Listen up if you are desperately
trying to buy your first house.
Me. I have found the cheapest
house in New Zealand. Well, this
could be for me. That's not a
that's not clickbait.
That's not even like What's the catch? Yeah. That's not clickbait. That's not even like...
What's the catch?
Yeah, it's not even a catch.
It's not like you have to collect the house
and put it on your own piece of land.
No, this is a whole house on its own bit of land.
It's ready to live in, this house.
How big's the piece of land?
It's not even haunted.
Oh, really?
It's not even haunted, this house.
Is it a deceased estate?
No, I don't think so.
Okay.
Don't know why that was funny.
I was like, that wasn't a joke.
I don't know how big the land is.
You could figure it out.
It's normal house-sized piece of land.
Suburbia.
It's a suburban house.
Got it.
Okay.
The cheapest house in New Zealand, if you're keen,
if you're looking to get into the housing market
and use your KiwiSaver,
the cheapest house in the country for sale
is a very cute 1930s two-bedroom cottage
in Ojai for $135,000.
Cheap.
There it is on the screen there.
Oh, yeah.
Look, needs a bit of a tidy up, but not too bad.
The bushes need a trim.
Yeah.
But whose don't?
Am I right?
Not mine.
I've got laser.
I don't recommend lasering these bushes.
Okay.
But this house is for sale.
So where did you say it was?
Ojai.
Whereabouts is that?
O-H-A-I.
It's in Southland.
Okay.
It's between Lumsden and Invercargill
but not on the way.
Right.
So that road
but then you've got a dog leg out for a bit.
Okay, so it's a little bit off the beaten track.
Yeah, but I mean, you could go for nights out in Invercargill easily.
You could, you know, you could.
How far would the drive be?
I don't know, maybe an hour.
I don't actually know.
Oh.
I don't actually know.
God, you're a bad real estate agent.
What's in South, I'm not trying to get you to Invercargill,
I'm trying to get you to Ojai, okay?
If you want to buy this house.
Well, sell me on Ojai then.
Well, capital gains.
You want capital gains?
This house sold in November 2015 for $36,000.
You're kidding me.
And now they want $135,000 for it.
I mean, it's kind of like the Brown properties on Monopoly.
What are they? They're the real
cheap ones. That's what it is.
They're the real cheap ones, but if you put...
Start building your property empire. Yeah, if you put houses
in hotels, you can add up.
I've been doing some math on this house, because you're
interested, right? You're interested in this as your first house.
At $135,000,
in New Zealand, you have to have a 20%
deposit to buy a house. So how much is
that? Your 20% deposit would be $27,000.
Oh, jeez.
Okay.
Well, hang on.
That $135,000, that is the 20% deposit on a whole house in any other part of the country.
Can I use my KiwiSaver?
Yes, you can use your KiwiSaver to buy this house.
Your mortgage on this house?
Yeah, how much?
$132 a week.
That's pretty good.
Not bad.
So I reckon this might be the house for you.
I wonder how much other houses in the area are worth.
Is it similar?
Another house on the street sold earlier in January this year for $90,000.
So similar.
This is untapped.
We've got to call Mark Richardson and do the block or high next year.
You know?
Can you imagine?
That O-Rewa series they did.
I mean, nobody made any money on this.
You need to get to bloody or high.
Clean up.
Yeah.
The population of or high, by the way.
What do you reckon?
Or high, I'm going to say it's not all too high.
A thousand people.
303 people.
So it's a small place.
It is small, but I come from a small place.
Exactly right.
There are less people living there
than you have on your Facebook page.
Yeah, and then it means
you don't have to talk to people as often.
Yeah, if anyone's interested, go through me
because I want to get like a referral commission on this house yeah yeah yeah nice but i mean at 135 grand
it's not gonna be much of a commission is a couple of bucks yeah i want to talk about unfortunate
situations for people where your parents give you your names you don't have a choice in the matter
i mean you're just a baby and when you grow
up, sometimes they haven't
picked the best combination
of names. And by that I
mean, do you have
unfortunate initials?
This is a responsibility that you don't
realise you have as a parent, naming
a child. It's a big one. You have to look at
that. Rhyming.
Yeah, rhyming is a huge one.
You've got to go through the rhyming couplets
because that's how they're going to get bullied when they go to school.
Kids love to rhyme.
Yeah.
They love to make up some funny, you know, name that goes with your name that rhymes.
Can't do Sally, Sally, smelly.
Yeah.
There's lots that are off the table, isn't there?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
There's a girl that's spoken out about this.
Her name's Rebecca Charlotte.
Right.
And she really didn't realise, and I'll preface this with saying
hers isn't that bad in my opinion.
Could be way worse.
But she didn't realise that she had rude initials
until her boss recently pointed it out.
Okay.
So she's got all the way to adulthood.
Yeah. So she's 21.
There's a clip of her talking about what she figured out
and why her initials sound rude.
Rebecca Charlotte, RC.
And I didn't realise until my boss pointed it out to me at age 21.
RC.
RC.
RC.
Could be worse. Could be worse.
Could be worse.
How?
I mean, she could have, you know, her name could be Agatha Samantha Smith.
Ass.
Ass.
Just straight ass.
I've just realised my name is...
CPR?
Oh, no, that's my stage name.
My real name. What?
My initials. Yeah. Clint.
Yeah. Alton. Nathan.
Thomas.
Wait, what?
My initials.
I was like, how? I never thought about this.
That's not your real name. No, it's not.
Oh. I had
just thought to myself that I didn't know your real name
after all these years.
I mean, that'd be fantastic if it was.
No, but, yeah, my initials are CPR.
CPR.
Yeah, yeah.
Which is kind of funny.
What are yours?
BST.
BST.
BST.
BST.
That's how my nan used to burp.
Let's do a vibe check on everybody in the team.
BST is fine.
Claude, what's your full name?
Claudia Catherine Sykes.
C-K-S.
C-K-S.
You have to add some extra names in there to make it rude.
C-K-S.
Sounds like a Calvin Klein fragrance.
It was close to a particular C word.
C-K-S.
Like if you had it on Olivia.
Yeah, you're just missing an O and a C.
Just put Olivia.
Claudia Olivia Charlotte Catherine Sykes.
I'm just going to think of your name as that from now on.
Ella, what's your full name?
I like it because it's EHS, which backwards is she,
which is Harry Styles nail polish brand.
Or forwards, it's S.
S.
S.
Yeah, so I'm happy with it.
Ella what, Shepard?
Ella Henei Turangi.
Oh, yeah.
Kia ora.
Kia ora.
Kia ora.
I think Claudia is the closest to having a rude one.
Nice.
I thought we could ask people this afternoon.
This is your time to shine.
Do you know that you've got unfortunate initials?
Yeah, rude initials.
Offensive initials. Yeah. rude initials. Offensive initials.
Yeah.
Yeah, you didn't choose them.
It's not your fault.
Not your fault.
We want to hear from you.
0800 dials with M or you can text us on 9696.
How rude are your initials?
Bree and Clint.
Do you have unfortunate initials?
And maybe it took you some time to realise it.
Maybe a friend of yours pointed it out.
A girl has realised that her initials sounds like a rude word.
Her name was, what was her name?
Rebecca something?
Rebecca, this is her.
Rebecca Charlotte.
This is her.
Rebecca Charlotte, RC.
And I didn't realise until my boss pointed it out to me at age 21.
RC.
Could be worse.
Yeah.
And that's what we're looking for here this afternoon.
Yeah, yeah, that's what we're looking for.
Do you have unfortunate or offensive initials?
Let's go to Shannon.

Shannon Alicia Clark.
S-A-C.
Sack.
Sack.
That's good, Shannon.
I like it.
Did kids at school figure out that your initials were sack?
No.
I sort of kept it to myself a wee bit,
and it wasn't really until high school that my friends sort of asked my middle name and whatnot but no like
wasn't really made a big deal your friends come around and like pat you on the head and go
sack tap no they don't please tell me long shot you weren't friends with someone called hacky
in high school no sadly not where was the hecky when i needed oh that would be great you just
you need a friend with the initials back, a friend with the initials crack,
and you can be the back, sack and crack girls.
That'd be great.
What a name.
Okay, thank you, Shannon.
Let's go to Debra.
Hi, Debra.
Hi, Deb.
Hello, how are you?
We're good.
Thank you.
Can we get your full name, please, Debra?
Yeah, my name is Debra Kate Simmons, so it's Dick.
Oh, Debra, you poor thing.
Oh, it is what it is.
It was in primary school, one of those just like assignments in primary school
where the teacher's like, what's your middle name?
What's da-da-da?
And then the kids were like, Dix.
Dix, Dix, Dix, Dix, Dix.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Oh, Deborah, it could be worse.
You could have had two middle names and one of them being Imogen.
Yeah, then you would really have been dicks.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, no, and my brother's also got an unfortunate one,
not quite as bad as dicks, but his initials are SMS.
SMS.
Oh, yeah, text messages.
You wouldn't want to excel at school, would you, Deb?
Because you wouldn't want to be head girl.
You wouldn't want to be dickhead girl, would you?
Yeah.
Not a good time.
Thanks, Deborah.
Someone text in, what was the one I was looking at?
Oh, no, I can't read that.
Have you seen this one?
They said, I went to school with a boy called Wayne Alexander Nicholas Kent.
Wayne Alexander Nicholas.
That's good. I'm not going to say that one. You can Nicholas. That's good.
I'm not going to say that one.
You can work that out for yourself.
Someone went to school with someone whose initials were STD.
Oh, that's unfortunate.
Frankie's here.
Hi, Frankie.
Hi, Frankie.
Hi, how's it going?
Good, thanks.
Tell us, Frankie, your full name.
It's Frankie Mary Evans, S-me. S-me. Oh, Frankie, your full name. It's Frankie Mary Evans. F me.
F me.
Oh, Frankie.
When did you figure out that your initials were unfortunate?
I actually figured it out maybe a few years ago
when I was making like a Hotmail or a Gmail account,
and I was like, oh, maybe I can use my initials.
And then I wrote them in, and I was like, oh. Maybe not. I never realised that before. And you wrote them in, and you were like, oh, maybe I can use my initials. And then I wrote them in and I was like, I never realised that before. And you wrote them in
and you're like, oh my God, if me. Yeah, wouldn't look so good on
CVs though, right? Although maybe I would have got more job offers. Maybe.
That's so funny. Yeah, thanks Frankie. We appreciate you.
There's a lot that we can't read out. There's so many that we can't read out. I like this.
My initials with my maiden name spelled LPG.
Nothing quite like being a form of gas.
I mean, it could be way worse.
I mean, I feel like you've got off pretty scot-free there.
What about the one that said an old work colleague of ours
from the Middle East?
We were talking about credit cards and he showed me his
and his initials on it were A-N-A-L.
That's so unfortunate, that one.
I've got a friend whose initials are M-T Coffin.
Empty Coffin.
Empty Coffin.
So wait, their last name's Coffin?
Coffin, yeah.
I've met a Coffin before.
Have you?
Yeah.
Were they Coffin?
Yeah, all right.
I love these kind of stories because it gives you an insight
into paparazzos or paparazzis, either or.
It's 2022.
Yeah.
What is the collective term for paparazzis?
I think if it's more than one, it's paparazzi.
Yeah. And if it's one, it's paparazzo. Really?
Is it? I don't know. You're the Italian. I feel like that's right.
Right, okay. So paparazzi is the collective noun. I think yeah, the paparazzi. Yeah, right. It means more than one. And then paparazzo
is one. Yeah, right. I think. But there's a story about a paparazzo.
He's actually an Aussie, but he owned a business back in the day
where he would photograph Hollywood celebrities.
It's not as lucrative a business anymore.
No, it's not.
Because celebrities release all their own candid photos on Instagram.
Exactly.
We have access to them 24-7, but back then we didn't.
So you did rely on these guys to get your photos of, I don't know,
Selena Gomez.
Drinking a coffee.
Putting out the rubbish bins.
Yeah, exactly.
His name's Darren Lyons and he owned a company called Big Pictures
in London in the 90s and the 2000s.
Yeah.
And he's done a podcast called the I've Got News For You podcast
where he's talked about all these different
interactions where he's had with celebrities and he's named celebrities that he thinks
are the rudest, the biggest divas, the ones with the worst tempers.
Right.
So do you want to hear?
Yeah.
Because I mean, obviously he was in the game for a long time.
Are these all 90s celebrities?
90s, 2000s, but you know them all.
Okay.
Trust me. So apparently he said on this podcast
that by far the rudest,
the worst one he had ever met and the worst experience
he'd had with a celebrity was Eddie Murphy.
Really? Yeah. He said it really killed me because I loved him in all his movies
but he was incredibly rude, like so rude.
It's an interesting one, though, because they don't like...
The paparazzi.
No, they don't like being hounded.
And Eddie Murphy was the biggest star in the world for a bit.
Yeah.
So he would have had paparazzi outside his house 24-7.
It'd be so frustrating.
Those were the worst times for celebrities.
I mean, they still had millions of dollars,
but they had all these people chasing them, you know, all over.
Isn't that that good Charlotte song,
that Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous song?
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Okay.
All right, Eddie Murphy's the worst, according to this guy.
And he then went on to say that this particular woman
was the biggest diva,
in his opinion.
Who do you think it was?
90s, 2000s.
Think of who was the biggest in the 90s.
Is it a supermodel?
No.
Is it Pamela Anderson?
It's a singer.
Is it Whitney Houston?
Mariah Carey.
Yeah, okay.
He said was the biggest diva.
And she would read that and she'd go, thank you.
I am a massive diva.
Thank you so much.
This one was quite interesting,
but then after recent things that have happened, I kind of get it.
So he said the celebrity with the worst temper that he ever encountered.
Britney Spears.
She attacked him with an umbrella.
No, it wasn't Britney.
It was Elton John.
Oh.
And what I mean by that is after watching the movie Rocket Man,
you know, he obviously.
Was coked out.
He had some bad times.
Bad times.
And then he went on to say something nice.
He said the most generous celebrity that he'd ever had interactions
with was Robbie Williams.
Oh, really?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Not many people have got a bad word to say about Robbie Williams, do they?
Yeah, he seems like, you know, man of the people
with millions of dollars and mansions.
That Robbie Williams, so down to earth.
I saw a video of him on a private yacht recently,
cruising around the Mediterranean.
So down to earth.
He was just wearing a tracksuit.
Oh.
He's just like one of us.
Yeah, Alexander McQueen tracksuit.
Listen up, eye lenses wearing community.
Eye lenses, is that what we call them?
Oh, contact lenses wearing community.
Yeah, yeah.
You can tell you and I don't wear them.
We don't.
We have 20-20 vision.
Well, I don't know if I do.
I think I need to go get my eyes checked.
But I've never worn contact lenses.
Me neither.
Although one time I did buy those horrific coloured ones
and tried to put them in and it was a bad time.
How popular and dangerous were those things?
So dangerous.
But I do have an appreciation for people who do wear contact lenses
as they have to do that all the time, like just a nightmare.
You might have seen this story in the news over the last couple of days,
but it's about a woman who went in to see her eye doctor
because she had been having a bit of pain in one of her eyes,
mainly in one of her eyes. And the doctor checked it out and that's when she found
23 contact lenses in her eye.
What the hell?
23 contact lenses in one eye?
23 in one eye.
How?
So apparently the woman said that she didn't really remember.
We're just showing Clint the video of it.
Of her getting the
contact lenses because they were kind of shoved
up into the top of her eyeball.
Oh, that all rolled backwards.
Turn it off.
Turn it off. I mean, if you've got
a weak stomach, I mean, you know,
you're not going to be watching it. But yeah, look, she just
pulls them all out there. Did she think? Did she? No, turn the video off. I can't watch it. I can't watch know, you're not going to be watching it. But yeah, look, she just pulls them all out there. Did she think...
No, turn the video off. I can't watch it.
I can't watch it. It's not too bad.
Did she think that they
dissolved in there or something? No, she
didn't. So apparently she said
that she'd had a few nights out
that month and
she'd fallen asleep
without taking them out.
And she had thought that she'd taken them out before.
Ella is the only contact lens wearing member of our team.
Do you ever forget to take them out, Ella?
I think I've had naps with them in.
And that's not good.
Oh, you're not even meant to have a nap with them in.
Sorry.
Please, Claudia, please turn the video off.
Sorry.
Please turn the video off. Oh, my gosh. So I'm not good with that stuff. Sorry. Please, Claudia, please turn the video off. Sorry. Please turn the video off.
Oh, my gosh.
So I'm not good with that stuff.
Sorry.
I'm about to, if you don't do the video, I'm going to gouge my eyeballs out.
Put the pimple popper video up now.
Oh, I love pimples.
Yeah.
So just quickly, do you ever forget to take them out?
Yeah.
Occasionally.
You can.
Right.
Okay.
Naps.
So you can't nap with them in?
I wouldn't say you should.
Oh, see, I feel so bad
for people that
I said to you off air
I said contact lenses
I get
you know
great for some people
but when you really
think about it
I'm like
can we invent
something better
yeah
than shoving a thing
into your eye
like that every day
we've invented
so many good things
like
and your options
if you are
vision impaired,
stick your finger in your eyeball every day.
And don't forget to take them out.
Or hang two pieces of glass off the end of your nose
that you have to look through.
Those are your only options.
Like, we're sending people to space right now.
Like, Bezos, sending people to space.
Surely we can come up with some better options
For people you know
I thought though

Good, mate. How are you going?
Oh, beautiful. Sun's shining in Tauranga.
Just come from the beach with the boys' surf lesson, so life's good.
Oh, that sounds like the life, doesn't it?
Life does seem good in Tauranga.
Like, I feel like people who have moved there have, like, cracked it.
People are happy in Tauranga.
Yep, we have, mate.
Yeah.
Think of an ingredient, don't tell anyone.
Sorry, we closed the gate behind us, though,
so I don't think anyone else is allowed to come in now.
I was going to say, Sam, don't talk about something bad about it
so people don't want to come.
Can't do it, mate. Can't do it.
Yeah, you can't even bring him something to do it.
Okay, Sam, what's your birthday?
The 11th of July, 1979.
Alright, Sammy, that means you were 16
in 1995.
And on your 16th birthday, this
would have been at number one.
They're coming to play
Friday Jams live next month.
That's TLC and Waterfalls.
Do you like this, Sam?
Amazing.
Who doesn't like this?
One of the great songs.
Listen to the positivity radiating from Sam.
I know.
We've got to get to Tauranga.
Whose kids do after-school surf lessons?
People in Tauranga.
You know?
That's the way.

Are things as good in your part of the country as they were for Sam in Tauranga?
Yes, pretty sunny here.
Nice, Andrew.
What's your birthday, mate?
3rd of July, 1995.
All right, that means you were 16 in 2011, Andrew.
Same as...
Oh, no.
You were born in the same year that Sam was 16.
Okay.
So let's see what your birthday banger is.
I love this Cobra Starship song.
Do you like it, Andrew?
It's your birthday banger.
Yeah, it's not too bad.
I preferred Sam's.
Okay.
He's honest.
Yep, fair enough.
We love honesty on this segment.
One more for Angela.
Hi, Angela.
Hi, Ang.
Hello.
Hello.
How are you, mate?
Good.
Whereabouts in the country are you, Ang?
I'm in Auckland, but we've just moved out to Langholm,
which is an amazing part of the world.
Does that mean you get a bit of land out there, Ange?
Yeah, you do.
A bit more bang for your buck, a bit more of a laid-back lifestyle.
That is the life I want to live.
She's like, don't let Sam send you down to Tauranga.
There's good bits of Auckland, too.
Yeah, you just got to go a bit further out.
Some provincial warfare going on.
Okay, Angela, give us your birthday.
We'll do your birthday banger.
Okay, 12th of October, 1970.
All right, Angela, that means you were 16 in 1986.
And on the 12th of October in 86,
this would have been number one.
Oh, how appropriate.
Dave Dobbin.
Now, that's got to trump them all.
Right, we're just talking about people's little slice of heaven,
and that's the birthday banger that comes up.
What are the bloody chances?
I mean, it's a good one, Andrew.
He's a Kiwi icon.
It's going to be hard to pick.
Wait there, it's going to be hard to pick.
Cobra Starship,
great song,
TLC,
Dave Dobbin.
Oh yeah,
what do I want to hear?
I like them all.
I want to hear what you're picking.
I feel like I should pick Dave Dobbin,
but I really like that Cobra Starship song.
Yeah,
that's a vibe.
I feel like it might be the,
and I love TLC and I love that they're coming.
That's not my favourite TLC song.
What's your favourite?
Probably No Scrubs.
Oh, yeah.
Great song.
I'm going to vote Cobra...
Oh, my God.
I'm going to vote Cobra Starship.
Yeah, me too.
Wow, okay.

Cobra Starship
taking out TLC
and Dave Dobbin.
Oh, this would have been good too.
This would have been good.
I don't think we had someone saying to us that this would have been good.
Yeah, if only someone had let us know this was a good choice.
I was waving my hands as you were deliberating.
Can you do something?
I'll be quiet.
Play it.
Can you please play it?
We can't.
Those are the rules.
They're the rules. But sometimes you break the it? We can't. Those are the rules.
They're the rules.
But sometimes you break the rules.
And don't you like breaking the rules?
Guys, let's be young and reckless.
Yes, let's do it.
I'm on board.
No, we've got to talk.

queens um that are appearing on tour i can't wait to see it it's going to be amazing it's queens
from season one and season two of down under on this tour is that right season two yeah what a
night um on the show you guys have to do some lip syncing. A lot of lip syncing. Which doesn't require you to be a very good singer, does it?
No.
Just a good lip syncer.
Yes.
Are you a good singer?
Spoiler alert, I got sent home in a dancing and singing challenge.
But, you know, it's fine.
I'm on Spotify, so.
Yeah, amazing.
Are you ready for some redemption this afternoon?
Oh, God.
We've got a name for this.
What are we calling this?
We're calling it Lip Sync Out Loud For Your Life.
Amazing.
And this afternoon you'll be head-to-head with Brie Tomasell.
Who also can't sing.
I can't wait to get sent home again.
There's two different songs here.
Grab the one that you like.
Your singing challenge starts now.
Oh, caught in a bad romance.
Nice.
You've got to bring it home.
Oh, caught in a bad romance.
Now the rah-rahs.
Rah, rah, rah, rah, rah.
Rah-rah, rah, rah, rah, rah.
Rah, rah, ooh-la-la.
Watch your bad romance.
Not bad.
Rah-rah, rah-rah.
Oh, she's still going. Rah-rah, rah-rah, rah. Who would have thought that you would have been sent home on a singing challenge?
I don't understand why.
I don't understand either.
Yeah, I mean, what a joke.
Look, it might not be that bad.
I need to cut you there because...
I do, I do.
But only because your competition still has to sing.
We have to leave room for your competition.
Well, I thought we said that I would never be allowed to sing live on this show again.
Well, they found someone worse.
Please welcome to the stage our other queen this afternoon, Brie Thomas-El performing
Britney Spears.
Come on.
I can't embarrass myself in front of you, you guys.
Where does it come in?
Where does it come in?
My timing's so bad.
Right, you've never heard this song before.
It's here.
Baby, can't you see?
I'm calling
A guy like you
Should wear a warning
It's dangerous
I'm calling
There's no escape
I can't wait
I need a hit
Baby give me air
You're dangerous
I'm loving it
I probably would go home on a singing challenge as well.
So you and I have that in common.
Brie, I think you did excellent,
but I have to give it to our guest this afternoon
because that's only right.
No, don't give it to me.
No, I do.
We're going to sell some tickets to this show, okay?
It's Yuri Guy's the winner.

Thanks so much for coming in.
You're amazing, and we love having you guys in the studio,
so come back any time and see us.
Now I know where you are, so I'll be back tomorrow.
Bree and Clint.
I found this story where this girl was talking about being shooketh
about finding out what the main
ingredient of sweet and sour sauce is from mcdonald's i've got absolutely no idea what
the main ingredient of sweet and sour sauce is because i before reading the article was like
okay let me see if i can guess it it was so easy to me i knew knew exactly what it was. Yeah, but you cook. Yeah, well, that's true.
I cook quite a lot.
Yeah.
And by doing that, you would have a far more educated palate than me.
And probably most of us.
Like, Ella and Claudia, do you guys know, without saying,
do you know what's in McDonald's sweet and sour sauce?
Well, my general rule with McDonald's is not to think about what the ingredients are.
But I have no idea.
I can't even, I couldn't even guess anything.
So you would say you have no idea.
Literally, I couldn't even put an idea forward.
I have no idea.
That's so weird to me because straight away I know what it is.
What about producer Ella?
I have one guess.
Okay.
Why?
Do we take the guesses?
Well, you don't have to confirm whether she's right or not.
Okay, cool.
You guys both have a guess.
Everyone have a guess of what you think the main ingredient is
of sweet and sour sauce.
Pineapple and lemon.
Okay, pineapple and lemon from Clint.
Yeah, I'm apple.
Apple.
Apple, okay.
And Claude's?
I just, sugar.
I don't know.
I like it.
Okay, well, let's get the answer.
Got some audio here of this girl figuring it out.
Take a listen.
Am I the only one that didn't know what fruit it's made of?
Have a guess.
Have a guess.
Three, two, one.
F***ing apricot.
It's apricot.
How did you guys not know that?
Apricot.
I didn't think it was a fruit.
Well, apricot is a fruit.
But I didn't think that it would be a fruit. No, she knew apricot was a fruit. Well, apricot is a fruit. But I didn't think that it would be a fruit.
No, she knew apricot was a fruit.
Right, good.
Just checking.
So wait, wait, wait.
Hand on heart.
You knew that Sweden's sour sauce was made from apricot.
Hand on my heart.
And I don't know why.
100% knew what it was straight away.
What's the sour bit?
That's a great question.
Vinegar.
Because apricots, in fairness, can be quite sour if they're not ripe enough.
They can be quite, they do have a tarty kind of taste.
So is that what sweet and sour pork from the Chinese restaurant?
Well, it depends.
Like, I think the sweet and sour pork can be like other flavours, like pineapple.
It does say here common ingredients in sweet and sour sauce.
So this is not just the McDonald's one.
Vinegar.
Well done. Pineapple.
Well done, me. I think that's
definitely a Chinese ingredient.
Soy sauce.
Ketchup. Sugar.
We are so good at this.
And then a bunch of other things as well.
It's fascinating.
The colour is very apricot-y.
It's very, probably why my mind went to apricot
because other people were guessing pineapple or mango.
I found the McDonald's one.
Okay, so along with water and apricot puree.
Yeah.
The sour, the bit that makes it sour.
Yes.
Distilled vinegar.
Oh my God, I can make this at home. Did Distilled vinegar. Oh, my God.
I can make this at home.
Did I say that?
Oh, should I make this on the show tomorrow?
Yes, you should.
Should I try and make it?
You try and crack the code for sweet and sour sauce.
Let's do it.
Can you imagine?
Chicken nuggets or vegan chicken nuggets?
We can have both.
Yeah.
Okay, tomorrow on the show.
We need an air fryer.
We have one.
We need a show air fryer.
We've got the air fryer here.
Okay, tomorrow we will crack the code on how to make McDonald's sweet and sour sauce.
It's the end of the show, everybody.
Thank you for joining us.
I'm out of here for a bit.
A week.
To have a surgery.
Is Maddie coming in to do the show?
Maddie McLean will be joining me for the next however long while you recover.
Yeah.
Make sure you've got your laxatives
for the painkillers.
Make it sound like I'm having
butt surgery. Make sure
you've got your anal douche.
Are we allowed to say that?
Anal douche? No.
That's a medical term.
Anal douche? No, you can't say that.
Is that not a medical thing? What?
Anal douche. No, I can't say that. Why that not a medical thing? What? Anal douche. No, I can't say that.
Why not? Well, we just said it like four times.
It's a
medical thing. You need to do it before a
colonoscopy. Do what?
Douching.
Can't say that.
Well, now we've said it way
more times. You're going to have to beep it.
Okay, I'll do it. Okay, look.
We understand we've said anal douche too many
times on the radio. You just said it again.
How many times do you reckon we said it? Five?
Six.
Six? Yeah. Okay.
I'll stand down for six days
from the show. Okay, sweet.
Okay? Put it on me.
I'll stand down.
And that is us being reprimanded.
Yeah, I'll take that on the rest
Which I don't see why it's wrong
It's a medical term
And I feel like it could be homophobic
If we're not allowed to say it
Just saying
Bye everyone
Have a great night
See you guys soon
Podcast is out very shortly
Bye
Bye guys
Bye
Good luck
Thanks bye
We'll see you soon.
Bye.
Bye.
I'm coming.
