Starting point is 00:00:00 Hello everybody, welcome to the Brianne Clint podcast. How's it going? Sorry, I don't know why I'm talking like that. It's just what I do when I'm trying to get all the buttons right. I make the words longer and it helps nobody. But the buttons are right now. Sounds like a musical. Musical theatre. So the podcast can start. Speaking of musical theatre, did you see a lot of people that we work with went to Jersey Boys
Starting point is 00:00:26 Over the weekend I want to go to Jersey Boys, it looks great Is it good? Yeah it's very good Because you know heaps of the songs right Yeah you do Sherry Sherry baby
Starting point is 00:00:40 Better than that obviously Better harmonies. Only just than that. Well, I can't harmonize with myself. Oh, some people can. You weren't bringing much in there. I mean, you know, I never bring much to the table in this show. Sherry.
Starting point is 00:00:55 Come on. Sherry, baby. Sherry. Sherry, darling. And then go really high for that high note. Sherry. Sherry. Sherry. That wasn't good, was it?
Starting point is 00:01:08 Not at all. Right. This is a turbo intro, actually, by the way. Is that a good date night to take someone to Jersey Boys? I know someone who went on a date to Jersey Boys the other night. You really, really got to do your research as to whether they enjoy musical theatre or not. Because some people passionately hate it. Some people just kind of hate it because they haven't seen any into it and some people haven't seen a good musical so you might get the chance to like convert them but
Starting point is 00:01:32 it's a risk because i feel like if you don't want to be risky a risky non-risky musical show to take someone to on a date would be the lion king because everyone loves the lion king and the stage show is amazing That's what I mean Yeah But even if For someone who doesn't like theatre You're gonna like that Because it's
Starting point is 00:01:49 They make giraffes out of people It's great Same with Matilda You can enjoy Matilda I think I haven't seen that one Oh it's great I'd probably enjoy that one Anything that you've seen the movie to
Starting point is 00:01:57 Unless the movie's gonna be better Than the stage show That's also on us It was great The stage show was very good Because of the genie Yeah the genie was great the stage show was very good because of the genie yeah the genie was great yeah
Starting point is 00:02:07 the whole show was good because I loved because it was my childhood you watched the movie it's a risky date I think it's a risky date unless you've done your research what else is a risky
Starting point is 00:02:15 unless you guys met in the theatre have a photo gig is risky smash room I never what
Starting point is 00:02:22 a smash room what's a smash room oh that sounds wrong. But where you go... They do them in Melbourne. I don't know if there's one here in Auckland where you pay money and you get given protective gear and you go into a room and you can just smash a bunch of shit.
Starting point is 00:02:34 Oh, whoa. Yeah, right. That sounds fun. What you said sounded dirty. It wasn't meant to sound dirty. Because take them to a Smash Room. That's not okay. I mean, eventually you might end up in the Smash Room.
Starting point is 00:02:43 No, that's not nice. The date goes well. I was going to say one. Oh, don't take me to a gig for a first date. Yeah, that's not fine. Because I don't want you to see me dance.
Starting point is 00:02:53 Yeah. Especially if I don't like the music and I'm pretending to dance. It's very awkward when you don't know someone and you're trying to impress them. And I want to talk like that into your ear the whole night.
Starting point is 00:03:01 Like, oh, do you come here often? Same with the movies. Don't take someone to the movies. Don't take a, the movies yeah feel like that's a given yeah these days dinner movies is a date you go on when you've known each other for ages and you're like should we go see a movie together and you get popcorn and you just lounge and yeah and you don't feel awkward around someone what about a physical activity depending on what it is i I remember one time I had this one date organized for me and I turned up and it was tandem bike riding. I hated it.
Starting point is 00:03:31 Tandem bike riding is a terrible date. Hated it. Because you can't see each other. One of you can see the other person's sweaty back and the other one is just staring straight ahead. Were you invited to drive the bike or just do the pedaling? I just sit at the bloody front. Oh. It was very awkward for me. So that? I just sit at the bloody front. Oh.

Starting point is 00:11:58 He has. He spent $28 million on this house. Now, the reason I wanted to talk about this is... $28 million? So, wait, is that US? Is that $28 million US? Yes, $28 million on this house. Now, the reason I wanted to talk about this is... $28 million? So, wait, is that US? Is that 28 million US? Yes, 28 million US. So, how much would that be?
Starting point is 00:12:10 US dollars. $39 million New Zealand dollars. Yay! Almost $40 million. Yeah, but here's the thing. Here's the thing. It's worth every cent. Do you want to know why?
Starting point is 00:12:21 Yeah, sell it to us, Dean. It's in Beverly Park. Right. Now, the reason I wanted to talk about this is because just to cast all your minds back, Brie, Clint and I harassed Beverly Park. We yelled and screamed as we drove past because Channing Tatum is one of the residents of That's where Channing Tatum's house is. Yes.
Starting point is 00:12:37 How could I forget? How could we forget? So, $40 million to be Channing Tatum's neighbour. Yeah, done. Trump change. I'd be spending that. To be honest, when you're The Rock, everything needs to be bigger as well. So, your house costs twice as much.
Starting point is 00:12:53 Have you seen the size of the guy? The door frames need to be twice as wide. He needs a California king bed in every room. And a regular toilet can't hold that man, you know? Yeah, he needs seven fridges just to be able to keep all his food in. I saw a really interesting story about The Rock last week too, which said that 60% of Americans surveyed said that if he ran, they would vote for him for president.
Starting point is 00:13:15 And then he said he is flattered and he would love to do it. Yeah, which means he's going to do it. Which means surely he's going to do it. Dean, get out while you still can. I mean, I love The Rock. I love him, but no. That is the latest live out of Los Angeles with our Hollywood correspondent, Dean
Starting point is 00:13:31 McCarthy, fueled by Pepsi Max. No sugars. Sorry, Max Tastes with no sugars given. Brian Clint. Alright, my Bitcoiners. I've got some Bitcoin news. And if you are a Bitcoiner, you've probably already heard this news. That's what they call themselves, Bitcoiners. Yeah, or just Coiners. I've got some Bitcoin news. And if you are a Bitcoiner, you've probably already heard this news. That's why they call themselves Bitcoiners.
Starting point is 00:13:47 Yeah. Or just Coiners. Coinmans. Coinminers. Coin. We're up in the lingo. But this is, do you think it's good news or bad news? I don't think you'd be bringing good Bitcoin news.
Starting point is 00:14:01 No, I would. Would you? I would. Okay. Yeah. But is it? Unfortunately, it's not good news. This is quite
Starting point is 00:14:07 bad news as $300 billion worth of Bitcoin has been wiped out following an overnight crash. Oh no. This happened last night. The cryptocurrency
Starting point is 00:14:24 market plummeted in the early hours of Sunday after blackouts across China's, now let me see if I can say this right, Xinjiang region, which is one of the most important regions for cryptocurrency, apparently caused by a coal mine explosion on April the 10th. So let me do that. I've done the math. Don't look yet because we know that you've-
Starting point is 00:14:46 I've got a little bit of Bitcoin. I want to see what's happening. Don't look yet. We know that you've got a bit of Bitcoin. Let me see. So if you put that into perspective, this caused the Bitcoin market to go from 2.2 trillion to 1.9 trillion. Right.
Starting point is 00:15:04 That's a pretty big drop. Yeah. It's a massive drop. So how much Bitcoin do you own? Like $100. Ball up. I know. I don't know if you see how it works.
Starting point is 00:15:16 That's why I bought it. Let's check. You go in and check to see if this has affected your massive investment of $100. I'm just opening up my wallet and my Bitcoin. Oh, it's gone up by 3%. Must have recovered. And just an update, I actually only have $50 of Bitcoin. I was lying when I said I've got $100.
Starting point is 00:15:36 And I think you actually don't own Bitcoin. You made a mistake and you own Litcoin. Brian Clint. Leather jackets. Harley Davidson's slicked back hair. No, I'm not talking about the movie Grease. I'm talking about bad boys. Bad boys, bad boys.
Starting point is 00:15:55 What you gonna do? What you gonna do? Serial types of a bad boy. But a new study has come out and it's revealed that according to women, bad boys are out and the good guy is back. Oh, damn. I just perfected my bad boy image. See, I've got this T-shirt.
Starting point is 00:16:13 It says Harley Davidson on it. You were the least likely to be a bad boy ever. I had an eyebrow piercing. Remember? It looked bad. Yeah, it looked horrible. Those are the stereotypes of a bad boy. What would a modern bad boy actually be?
Starting point is 00:16:26 A modern bad boy. No rego on his Nissan Skyline. Three months behind in his child support payments. Wears no shoes to the supermarket. No shoes to the supermarket. Whenever I see that, I'm like, oh, you bad. And he has a vape so big, it looks like one of those travel charges for your phone.
Starting point is 00:16:47 And it actually can toast bread as well. That's a modern bad boy. It's a modern day bad boy. No wonder they're out. But, you know, because obviously we see in movies and, you know, amongst friends, there's something about bad boys that just kind of lure people. Where you're like, oh, they're so hot, the bad boy. But apparently not according to this study,
Starting point is 00:17:09 women are now finding the good guy more attractive. Why? What's the good guy ever done? I've never seen him get the girl in a movie. Good stuff. Good stuff. Does the good guy ever get the girl? Yeah, I think so.
Starting point is 00:17:22 Oh, right, okay. Like in the Hilary Duff movie. At the end of Grease, Danny only got, well, I'm doing a Grease reference, mate. At the end of Grease, Danny only got Sandy because he became a good boy, didn't he? Yeah, exactly. But then she became a bad girl. Remember?
Starting point is 00:17:37 Forget about it. Tell me about it. I feel like you need to watch some more movies because I'm pretty sure the good guy nearly always wins. Yeah, right. Like in the end, not through the whole movie. They get kicked and punched and knocked around, but eventually they win. Like in Shallow Hell when he becomes the good guy at the end.
Starting point is 00:17:55 Man, we really need some up-to-date movie references, don't we? What's something quick? Throw something new out there. Oh, Titanic. Avengers. The good guy. They're all good guys. The good guy.
Starting point is 00:18:03 Yeah. Titanic. Oh, no. No. The good guy dies. He sinks to the bottom of the ocean. Yeah. Avengers. They're all good guys. The good guy. Yeah. Titanic. The good guy. Oh, no. No. The good guy dies. He sinks to the bottom of the ocean. Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:08 And the bad guy makes it away on a life raft and survives. Nemo. Haven't seen it. How have you not seen Nemo? You've got two daughters. I'm saving it for a special occasion. For God's sake. I want to talk to some people.
Starting point is 00:18:21 0800 Dial ZM. Are you currently dating what we call the bad boy? Are you a sucker for a bad boy? Yeah. Do they have a lemon cherry vape? No, real bad. We want bad boys, right? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:37 We want boys with. And what makes them bad? In your eyes, what makes them bad? Is it them themselves that think they're a bad boy or do you think they're not that bad? Or does your dad hate them? And that makes them a bad boy. Does that make them a bad boy?
Starting point is 00:18:49 0800 dial ZM or you can text us on 9696. Where are the bad boys at? Hey, if you're a bad boy, you can also call us. Only if you've got hands free on your motorbike though. Free in Clint. Free on your motorbike, though. A study saying that the bad boys are on the way out and the good guys are what all the women want. Bad boys, bad boys. Which is hard for me as a bonafide bad boy, you know?
Starting point is 00:19:18 Yeah, your Birkenstocks and sock look really say bad boy. No, that was just a bad look. We want to know this afternoon, are you willing to admit that you love a bad boy? Before we meet the women who date them, let's meet one of them. Jack is a self-confessed bad boy. Hi, Jack.
Starting point is 00:19:36 G'day, Jack. G'day, g'day. How are we? Are you bad to the bone? No. See, my girlfriend would probably think I'm a bit of an idiot, but the reason why I'd say I'm a bad boy is because
Starting point is 00:19:48 before we, we're not even engaged, let alone married, but we fell pregnant and her parents are very religious so let's just say they think I'm a bad boy for that. You had premarital indoor gardening sessions.
Starting point is 00:20:05 You bad boy for that. You had premarital indoor gardening sessions. Bad boys, bad boys. You bad boy, Jack. Oh, Jack, you're naughty. You are naughty. But you are marrying this girl? Yes, hopefully. Oh, Jack, a bad boy. A bad boy would have said absolutely not. A bad boy would have left her, Jack.
Starting point is 00:20:23 On to the next, Jack. See, Jack, you might have been convinced by other people that you're a bad boy would have left her, Jack. On to the next, Jack. See, Jack, you might have been convinced by other people that you're a bad boy, but you sound like a good guy to us. You actually sound quite genuine. No, I didn't say that, Jack. I don't agree with that. Oh, no, he's a bad boy. Bad boy, bad boy, you naughty, naughty thing. Hi, Tony.
Starting point is 00:20:40 G'day, Tony. Hi. Is it you that's dating the bad boy? Yes, I am. Okay, Tony. Hi. Is it you that's dating the bad boy? Yes, I am. Okay, Tony, tell me what makes him so bad? He's like the kind of fella that everyone's like, oh, you go out with him. Oh, you're dating that guy. Oh, right. And then when my dad met him, everyone was, he goes, oh, he's the type of guy you meet down a dark alleyway at night time. Oh, whoa, okay.
Starting point is 00:21:07 Yeah, but you know how you avoid that, Tony? You marry him. Okay. Are you... And you're still with him? Okay, and what do you think it is, Tony? Because apparently bad boys are on the way out in good boys' room, but you still like them.
Starting point is 00:21:23 What is it about a bad boy that you like? It's his look. He's like the bad boy he thinks he looks, but he's not into that. He's just a look. I'm picturing he looks like Jared Leto. Bad boys, bad boys. That's what I'm picturing he looks like.
Starting point is 00:21:38 I need to read out this one text because it's brilliant. Someone said, Bad boys, Subaru Legacy, skater shoes, bartender by night, tradie by day, has a fade and a grape soda vape. Did I date him? Sure did. Did I marry him? You bet I did.
Starting point is 00:21:58 Thanks, Jenny T. We appreciate that. Bree and Clint. Did I tell you I'm taking the next step in my relationship? You're getting married. No. You're purchasing a property together. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:22:12 You're getting matching lower back tattoos. No. Hers and hers. No. Name tattoos. What is that? What's the next step? You've already lived together.
Starting point is 00:22:21 You already have a dog together. We have recently purchased a joint calendar. Oh. A joint calendar? Yes. What do you mean you've purchased a joint calendar? A joint calendar. A joint calendar.
Starting point is 00:22:36 We've decided that we need to, in order to mesh our lives and make them work together, we need a calendar where we join all of our things and stuff that we're doing into the same calendar. Oh, you're sharing a calendar. Yes. Why did you buy it? Why didn't you just sync your Google calendars? Oh, we don't know how to do that.
Starting point is 00:22:57 Are you telling me you went to- We went old school. Are you telling me that in 2021 you went to a calendar store and actually purchased a calendar? That's exactly right. Oh, my God. You are a calendar. That's exactly right. Oh my God, you are a boomer. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:08 Wow. I love it. I love her on paper calendar. Right. It's so good. But what if one of your items changes? Then you just cross it out. Right, okay.
Starting point is 00:23:20 Permanent marker or is it like a whiteboard calendar? Oh yeah, that's not a bad idea. Dedicate a wall in the house to a white whiteboard calendar this is my question because it was interesting because we got this calendar and i was like where are we going to put the joint calendar yeah because you want it somewhere where it's quite you know that you see it a lot and then i realized that in my family like growing up we had a place for the calendar right And I'm assuming that every household has a certain dedicated place for the calendar. They did in the 90s when people had calendars. No, I reckon they still have them. I reckon there's at least three people out there
Starting point is 00:23:53 that has a calendar. Right, right, okay, what's the place? Where did you have your calendar? Do you remember? Did we have a calendar? It was in the kitchen. I remember now it was in the kitchen, it was above the microwave.
Starting point is 00:24:03 Yeah. Ours is in the kitchen. Right. And it was in the kitchen. It was above the microwave. Ours is in the kitchen. Right. And it's above the fruit bowl. Perfect. Because I look at that fruit bowl a lot because I love fruit. And then I thought, you know, is this going to be all our worries and dramas are just going to leave because now we're just going to be so synced up. You'll get that synergy, that relationship harmony you've always been dreaming of. And I can't wait to say,
Starting point is 00:24:28 ah, ah, did you check the calendar? It's on the calendar. This is all good in theory, but I know you. I've known you for over three years. The calendar is the hot item right now. In six weeks time, you will be so sick of updating the calendar and your partner will go,
Starting point is 00:24:43 come on, we're going out for dinner. And you'll go, I can't go out for dinner. I've got that thing on tonight. And she'll go, why didn't you put it in the calendar? This calendar's going to tear your relationship apart. And that's when I'll distract with something and then I'll go in there and quickly write it on there. Bree and Clint.
Starting point is 00:25:00 What's their name? What's their name? His real name ain't some shady real or fake name, baby. What is their real name? The game doesn't have their name, what's their name? His real name ain't some shady real or fake name, baby What is their real name? The game doesn't have a name, but the name of the game is to figure out if it's their real name. Exactly. You pretty much summed it up there. And we have team members for this game. Yeah, we work in teams.
Starting point is 00:25:19 Let's get Andrew on first. Hi, Andrew. G'day, Andy. Guys, how are we? Good, mate. Let's split this thing up along gender lines. Let's not go with the norms. I reckon Andrew's your teammate today, Bree. Yeah, but did Andy want me as his teammate?
Starting point is 00:25:32 No, true. Andrew, whose team do you want to be on? I wouldn't mind either. You're both awesome. But let's go with Bree. That's cool. Sounds good, Andy. That means my teammate is Kristen.
Starting point is 00:25:41 Hi, Kristen. G'day, Kristen. Hi. Okay, we're going to work together to figure out if the names Anastasia has are these celebrities' real names or if it's a stage name, a fake name. Who's going first, Anastasia? Oh, Clint hasn't played this game in a while,
Starting point is 00:25:56 so let's start off with you, Clint. Okay, ready. Celebrity number one is Meryl Streep. Meryl Streep, Kristen. Oh, come on. I saw this the other day. It's not. Oh, really? She's like my favourite actress inep, Kristen. I saw this the other day. It's not. Oh, really?
Starting point is 00:26:06 She's like my favourite actress in the whole world. I would have known this one. Kristen is confident. I've got absolutely no idea, but we're going to go with Kristen. You're saying it's a fake name, Kristen? Yeah. Okay, lock in fake, please, Anastasia.
Starting point is 00:26:18 That's her real name. Oh, what? I knew it. What have you been reading, Kristen? Kristen, what have you been reading? I watched a video the other day. Was it. What? What have you been reading, Kristen? What have you been reading? I watched a video the other day. Was it on TikTok? Don't believe everything on TikTok, Kristen.
Starting point is 00:26:31 Mary Louise Streep. No, she was in an interview. Right. Okay. All right. No. We'll take Anastasia's word for it. Okay.
Starting point is 00:26:39 So the second celebrity is for Brie is Adam Levine. All right, Andy. What do you think? Adam Levine, part of the rock pop band. Adam Levine. I reckon that's his real name, eh? I have a feeling it's his real name too, for some reason. Not sure it sounds like too much of a stage name. Like, you know,
Starting point is 00:27:08 hey, Maroon 5, like, yeah. Let's lock in a real name. What do you think, Andy? Real name. Let's go with our guts. Real name, Anastasia. That is correct. Adam Levine's real name is Adam Levine. Nice, Andy. Can I raise a protest flag? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:23 Meryl Streep's real name is Mary Louise Streep. So Meryl is her stage name. Mary Louise. All right. Yeah. I'm just saying Kristen was right. Kristen was right. Can I get points for not calling out the person who's running the game during the game?
Starting point is 00:27:40 Well, Kristen was adamant. I had to check for Kristen's sake. That is correct. Sorry about that. Can I ask something quickly? Yeah, of course. So in rugby, if a team scores a try and then the other team scores another try 10 minutes later,
Starting point is 00:27:56 can the original try be debated? Like, move on, Clint. Fair enough, Andrew. Okay, we'll take the nil point. So long as, in theory, Kristen was right. It's still one nil. No, I feel bad for Kristen.
Starting point is 00:28:11 No, no, no. I run the game. But Andrew's very funny. I run the game. Andrew, I like that enthusiasm, but just channel that into the next question. We're sitting at one all.
Starting point is 00:28:21 The next celebrity, celebrity number three for Clint and Andrew is Steven Spielberg. Okay, it's for me and Kristen, not me and Andrew. Steven Spielberg. Do you have any idea, Kristen? Is that his real name or his stage name?
Starting point is 00:28:34 I think it is his real name. Yeah, I'm going to go with real name. Why would a director have a stage name? We're locking in real name for Steven Spielbargo, please, Kristen. Anastasia? You two are correct. And I've just Googled searched that just to check and that's... Perfect.
Starting point is 00:28:51 All right. All right, Andy. Come on, mate. Celebrity number four is John Legend. John Legend. You know anything about John Legend, Andy? I actually do because that was our wedding song for our first start.
Starting point is 00:29:11 As my beautiful wife walked down the aisle. You, Andy! I actually know for a fact that's his stage name and I know his real name is John Stephen. I was going to say, I was pretty sure it was a fake name or a stage name. Let's lock that in please. You guys have to be the best
Starting point is 00:29:31 callers for this game we've ever had. That's correct. Wow. I've never had that before where the callers have their real name too. That's really well done Andrew. Let's go to tie break. We're sitting at tie break. The way the tie break works is that you need to call out your team name, which is either Brielle Clint, Kristen and Andrew,
Starting point is 00:29:50 you may participate too. So celebrity number five is Amy Adams. Break. Oh. Andy, do you know anything about the actress? She's the one that always gets mistaken for Isla Fisher. Yes. Amy Adams.
Starting point is 00:30:04 Oh, no, that's definitely not. No, 100%, that's your name for Isla Fisher. Yes. Amy Adams. Oh, no, that's definitely, no, no, 100%, that's your name. Lock it in. That's your name. Okay. He has been correct in the past. I'll go with you, Andy. Amy Adams, real name, lock it in. That is correct.
Starting point is 00:30:17 There you go. Andy, you did all of the work. You should take my gap, my gap. You get all of the KFC chicken dollars. Hold on. Can we call it yet? Or does Clint want to moan about something that happened? Oh, come on, Andrew.
Starting point is 00:30:31 Come on. Let it go. No, Andrew. I'm here for it. Very funny. Free and Clint. We have a podcast for this show, and every Friday we do something called
Starting point is 00:30:40 the International Birthday Banger. That's for people who listen to our podcast overseas can find out what their birthday banger is because they can't call the show, right? Or even people that just listen to the podcast but they may not be listening in the car. True, true. Because we have had Kiwis.
Starting point is 00:30:54 It's for our non-live listeners. That's it. We really struggle with some of the place name pronunciations that come through because they're from all over the world. Yeah, there's some really small, never heard of places for us. Weirdly, most of them are in the UK
Starting point is 00:31:09 where the predominant language is English. Like one that came through on Friday. Just have one more go at this, Brie, because they've come through, the person whose it was, James Mees,
Starting point is 00:31:17 come through with the correct pronunciation. How would you have said that? Leishester. Yeah, I would say... Leishester. Yeah. Oh, is that it? Leishester. I was saying Leicester. Yeah, I was saying... Leicester. Yeah. Is that it? Leicester.
Starting point is 00:31:29 I was saying Leicester. Yeah, but there's no H is there? The correct pronunciation is actually Leicester. L-E-I C-E-S-T-E-R is Leicester. What did I say? Leicester. Leicester. So I've got? Leicester. Leicester.
Starting point is 00:31:46 So I've got a game for you. What we have here, submitted by one of our podcast listeners, is the most commonly mispronounced place names in the UK. Got it. It's going to come up on the screen. I just want you to say how you think it's said. Oh, well, this is embarrassing.
Starting point is 00:32:00 I'll do the same, and then we'll see who got the closest. Okay. Okay, Producer Ben, when you're ready, show us the first one. You go first. Mary LeBourne. Mary LeBourne, that's what I'm locking in.
Starting point is 00:32:13 Mary LeBourne. The correct pronunciation is... Mar-le-bone. I think I'm closer. Are we giving Brie the point? Just. Okay, place number two. Let's go to place number two. Oh, Teaganmouth.
Starting point is 00:32:29 The city of Teaganmouth in the UK. I'm going to say Teagmouth. Teagmouth? Yeah. Where's the N? I don't know. They just chucked it in for fun. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:39 The correct pronunciation is... Tinmouth. Oh, what? Myth. Tinmouth. It, what? Myth. Tinmuth. It sounds like tin meth. That would mean that the place in New Zealand is greymouth. Anyway, okay, let's keep going.
Starting point is 00:32:51 Ben, give us another one. Oh, this has got to be Bichester. Surely it's Bichester. Bichester. You reckon what? Say it one more time. Bichester. Bister.
Starting point is 00:33:02 What? Oh, is that? Wait. Bisexual. Bista. What? Oh. Is that... Wait. Bisexual. Bista. No. Ben, give us another one. Go and give us another one.
Starting point is 00:33:14 Hunstanton. Hunston. Hunstanton. Hunstanton. Hunstanton. I'm going to say Hunstanton. Hunstanton. Oh, I got one.
Starting point is 00:33:25 That was close. I got one. All right, let's skip ahead a little bit. Yes, this one here. That's a good one. Let's go to that one. How would you say that, Brie? Cholmondley.
Starting point is 00:33:37 Cholmondley. Cholmondley. I'm going to say Cholmondley. Cholmondley. Cholmondley. We won't even close. Okay, let's go to the very last one. This name here is the longest place name.
Starting point is 00:33:52 It's not in England. It's actually in Wales. How would you say that, Bree? It's a total of 58 letters. It looks like a cat has walked on the keyboard. Lansar. Bloom. Glang.
Starting point is 00:34:03 Bloom. Goody goot. The correct pronunciation for this place in Wales, walked on the keyboard. Llanfair blan glan blan blan gudagud. The correct pronunciation for this place in Wales, 58 letters long, is... That's what I thought. Oh, he just spat in my eye. Every now and then, we ask you guys to blow our mind with a mind-blowing coincidence.
Starting point is 00:34:23 Things that shouldn't have happened but it did happen and it just makes you go whoa that's crazy coincidence that kicked this game off uh i think was probably one of the best coincidences i've heard for a while and it happened to happen to me um where i found out that my dog which i I named Whitney Houston, I figured out seven months later that her birthday was the actual birthday of the Whitney Houston. And that got a mind-blowing reaction. Mind-blown. Now, there are two reactions to this game.
Starting point is 00:34:58 And we apologise. No, actually, we don't apologise. We don't apologise, but we understand that it's harsh. There's no in-between on this game. When you play, you're either going to get a mind blown. Or this. Which means
Starting point is 00:35:15 not good enough. Effectively, it means cool story, bro. But it's a hard, it's a hard mountain to climb. But if you've got one of those stories You know you've got one Bree's got one Or at least she thinks she does
Starting point is 00:35:30 No I think it is Full disclosure I already know the story And you've already given me a Yeah I disagree I'm going to listen to it with an open mind So give it to me again Because maybe I missed a bit of it. Okay.
Starting point is 00:35:47 Maybe I missed something. So my dog is, there's another one that involves my dog. She's a can terrier, which is quite rare. You don't see them hardly ever. It's not like a cavoodle, which is every couple of houses has a cavoodle. A can terrier, very rare. And my partner said to me, they were at the dog park with our Canteria and she ran into another Canteria and its name was Roxy.
Starting point is 00:36:16 Canteria named Roxy and it was a black colour. And I was like, oh, how cool. You ran into another Canteria. That's amazing. Anyway, two days later, I went to the same park with our dog and I was like, oh, how cool, you ran into another canteria, that's amazing. Anyway, two days later, I went to the same park with our dog but it was just me and I ran into a canteria, a black one and I said to the woman, I was like, oh, what's your dog's name? Is it a canteria?
Starting point is 00:36:40 She goes, yeah, it's a canteria. Her name's Roxy, Same name. Anyway, I went back and spoke to my partner and I was like, oh, I met Roxy today and her owner, you know, blah, blah, blah. It turns out different owners, different dogs, both canterias, both with the name Roxy. Do you know why you got an explosion this time? Because you added the black bit. That's why.
Starting point is 00:37:08 Well, that is true. That's why. You got me because it wasn't just breed and name. There's a colour in there as well. It was true, too. They both were black. So I'll give it to you. You know what?
Starting point is 00:37:16 Yes, I'm just going to. I know you needed that, too. So don't think it's charity, okay? You genuinely got me that time. It was a little bit of charity. It wasn't that good. Oh, you do know me well. We want you to blow our minds this afternoon.
Starting point is 00:37:28 Do you have a story that has what it takes? Yeah. Is it a mind-blowing coincidence? We've already given out the first charity one there. There's no more. So there's no more. And the fart is loaded and ready to go, okay? I'm just being honest with you guys, okay?
Starting point is 00:37:41 I'm just being honest. 0800-DIAL-ZM. Do you want to take on the Fart-O-Tron? With a mind-blowing coincidence. It's not called the Fart-O-Tron. No, it is now. No, we didn't talk about that before the show. No, it is now.
Starting point is 00:37:54 It is now. It's a mind-blowing Monday, everybody. Or is it? Is it? Or is it? Or is it? Or is it more of a... This is slowly becoming my new favourite game.
Starting point is 00:38:12 Those are the two options. Your job is to tell us a story that involves a coincidence or an occurrence or a happening of some sort that genuinely blows our minds. If it's good enough, you'll get the explosion, but if it's not up to par, you will get the fart-a-tron. There is no in-between. That's the rough bit of this game, but the payoff is immense. Yes.
Starting point is 00:38:32 When you get it, it's huge, okay? It's like a gold medal. Let's start with Emily. Hi, Emily. G'day, Em. Hi, guys. When you're ready, blow our minds. All right.
Starting point is 00:38:42 So when I was in my early 20s, I found out that my dad had done the duty and I had a sibling who was the same age as my sister. Whoa. Surprise sibling. So the coincidence when my mum was in her 20s,
Starting point is 00:39:00 she found out her dad had also done the same and she had a surprise sister. And then just to throw we actually went in there, my stepdad also found out the same, that he had another brother who was three years older than him. So every, like, heaps of members in your family found out they had secret siblings. Secret siblings, yep.
Starting point is 00:39:23 Yeah, no, that's enough. That's a weird pattern that's going on. Coincidence or it runs in the family that they're a little bit naughty. God, I hope it doesn't happen to you. No, it's not going to happen. Hey, it's not going to happen. Emily, walk away with your head held high.
Starting point is 00:39:39 You got the correct result. Congratulations. Nice work, Emily. You kicked it off strong. Let's go to Lindsay. Kia ora, Lindsay. Hello, Lindsay. Hi, my name's Lindsay. My coincidence is I'm from New Zealand. My sister was visiting from Australia. We went to a park, took my grandchildren to
Starting point is 00:39:55 the park. I went along, took my sister along with. We got talking to a man at this park who was actually visiting from the North Island because we're in the South Island. It turned out his daughter we met him for the first time was actually staying with my sister that was actually visiting from Australia. Actually staying in her house because his daughter is actually a friend of my sister in Australia. Wait, so where was this in the South Island, Lindy?
Starting point is 00:40:28 It was at Roleston. We went to the Roleston park to go and take the kids to go and dance, to go playing. I'm really sorry, Lindsay. I think it had too many turns. Yeah, and I don't know where. I hate it. I hate it.
Starting point is 00:40:50 It's too much of a coincidence for you. I think so. I think it was too good. Let me tell you that it's absolutely true, and that's the spooky part about it. I know. I know. Trust me.
Starting point is 00:41:01 Trust me. I didn't like doing it. I didn't like doing it. Clint's got a massive smile on his face. No, but we appreciate you, and thank you for calling. Thank know. Trust me. Trust me. I didn't like doing it. I didn't like doing it. Clint's got a massive smile on his face. No, but we appreciate you and thank you for calling. Thank you, Lindy. We appreciate your story. Thank you.
Starting point is 00:41:11 It's a rough job sometimes. Don't throw me under the bus, mate. I'm just doing my job. Mate, I gave you the eyes to do the fart. Steve's here. Hi, Steve. Hello, hello. Come on, Steve.
Starting point is 00:41:22 You know we ain't missing around this afternoon. Don't let us down, Steve. Hello, hello. Come on Steve. You know we ain't missing around this afternoon. Don't let us down Steve. After the last one definitely so I met my missus a long time ago and she decided to give me a nickname called Jack which turned out to be my grandfather's name and I'd never told her and then fast forward a few years and we decide to start looking for a fur baby and we're looking at adopting a dog and she says uh what should we name her and i was i don't know
Starting point is 00:41:51 and she goes i will name it cyril which turned out to be my other granddad's name and i never It was so close Steve Oh my god it was so close It was so close I don't know why I don't know why But it's just a gut feeling That you have And I think it's
Starting point is 00:42:18 I think it's an amazing story And I don't know how it happened But I don't know But you know Super common name for pits Is Cyril. You don't really hear that name anymore. No you don't. That was a joke.
Starting point is 00:42:31 That was a joke. That was meaning that it's not a common name for a dog. Steve, you would literally inches like just cent, like millimetres away from getting the thumbs up. And I can't tell you what it would have been that put you over the edge. But you and I had the same feeling, didn't we?
Starting point is 00:42:49 Yeah. But Steve, we appreciate you though. Steve, do you hate us? Do you hate us? Not at all. Okay, good. Well, we still love you, Steve. Call back next week and try her up.
Starting point is 00:42:59 Oh, he's never going to. Steve's like, that was my best coincidence story. What am I going to do now? God, the mind-blowing stories are piling in on the text machine now. Unfortunately, we can't award a mind-blown from the text machine. You need to try and get through. You need to tell us a story because half of it's in the telling. It's hard enough to...
Starting point is 00:43:20 It's how you tell it as well. Yeah. I love that game so much. Steve? Steve? Steve. I reckon told correctly. He told it as well. Yeah. I love that game so much. Steve. Steve. Steve. I reckon told correctly. He told it well.
Starting point is 00:43:28 He did. He told it... No, he told it well, but I think it has all the components. He just needs to find the way of telling it. He needs to be more excited. And he goes... Maybe that's it.
Starting point is 00:43:38 And get this. You'll never believe it. Then... Yeah. Picked the name of my other grandfather. You know, force us. Absolutely force our hand to give you a... Instead of, you know, not only polish the turd,

Starting point is 00:44:03 That's what you're buying in a sausage sizzle. You're not buying a piece of, a tube of meat in a piece of bread. You're buying that sizzle, that hot crackle off the barbecue. That's what you're buying. Is that what a lot of you men do? That's what my sausage teacher used to teach me. Sell the sizzle, not the sausage. Oh, 100%, baby.

I think it's pronounced Guetta. Guetta, David Guetta. No, Guetta. I think it sounds like you've got a lurgy in your throat.
Starting point is 00:51:16 Oh, what a banger. Is this with Kelly Rowland? Yeah. So good. This was huge. The album was Kelly Rowland, Akon, Tayo Cruz, Usher. Sounds like R&B Friday. R&B Friday.
Starting point is 00:51:32 It's from the last radio station I worked at. Sounds like Friday. I've lost it for a Monday. And I'm okay with it. Bree and Clint. On Friday, I brought to your attention, Clint, the story that was gripping Americans as, no, not Americans, the French town of Biche. Some might pronounce it bitch or bitch.
Starting point is 00:52:03 After they had their Facebook page removed. Spell it for me. B-I-T-C-H-E. Bitch. Bitch. They removed it. Facebook said that it was derogatory and wasn't okay. Amazing that that's what Facebook chooses to remove.
Starting point is 00:52:20 I know. Facebook is so hard to understand. Because it's a bunch of computers. Right. Making the decisions. Oh no, bitch. Remove the bitch. The video of us talking about this was posted on our Facebook page and there was quite a lot of comments from people
Starting point is 00:52:35 about other places around the globe that they think could be in trouble in terms of getting their pages taken down from Facebook. And so I've taken those comments and then I've also done my own research into naughty place names around the globe. Right.
Starting point is 00:52:53 I'm not a computer and you're not a computer. I reckon we can use our power of censoring to see if, yeah, you're going to get your page taken down a little. Okay, cool. Yeah. The first town, let's go over to America. Pennsylvania. Yeah. The first town, let's go over to America. Pennsylvania. Yeah. This place has a population of 1,300 people. Oh, small. Small place. And it's the small
Starting point is 00:53:15 town of Intercourse. Intercourse, Pennsylvania. Intercourse. They've gone straight for it, haven't they? Apparently, it was, the name came about because two roads intersected. Call it Intersection, Pennsylvania then. I'm going to say Intercourse, Pennsylvania is fine because they've used the technical term. They haven't called it root spill. Yeah, true.
Starting point is 00:53:43 Well, hey, strap in because I've got a few more for you. Strap in or strap off? No. No. What about the place, beautiful place in Georgia over in the States? Population as small as 273. Oh, very small. And it's the town of Climax.
Starting point is 00:54:02 And let's be real, it's small because not many people go there. I reckon Climax is in trouble. Have you ever visited? Climax? I go there all the time. Yeah, I bet you do. Have you taken your wife there? Probably not. I took her to intercourse but only I
Starting point is 00:54:22 went on to Climax. Come on! I'll go through a few more real quick. course, but only I went on to climax. Come on. Come on. I'll go through a few more real quick. You say yes or no. Okay. This one's also in Pennsylvania, the town of Blue Ball. What about the place in Ohio, Pussy Creek?
Starting point is 00:54:45 What about, oh, this one's from Australia, Blowhard. What about a little place in North Carolina called Horny Town? It's fine. Don't know why, that one's fine. I've got two more. These are my favourites, I think. A place in Germany
Starting point is 00:55:01 called Wank. Not only is that Facebook page getting taken down, the show's getting taken down for... Hey, these are all... You mentioned it. These are all legitimate places... That won't be how it's pronounced. ...in the world.
Starting point is 00:55:17 No, it is. W-A-N-K. Yeah, you got it, mate. You don't need to spell it. The last place, naughty place names around the world, it's from Arkansas, and the place is called Bald Knob. I'd love to travel to Bald Knob. Wouldn't you?
Starting point is 00:55:35 Show me a hairy one. Yeah. Like, why do you have to stipulate that it was bald? That's the next town over. Hairy Knob? No, Hairy Gooch. I want to tell you this story about how a
Starting point is 00:55:47 guy nearly ended up marrying the wrong person. How? Well, what would be a few things that you could think of that he may have ended up accidentally marrying? Identical twins. All identical twins he married. Yeah, that's a good one. Do you mean like he... Drunk.
Starting point is 00:56:04 Yeah, are you drunk? Do you mean like he loved a woman, he married the wrong woman. Yeah, that's a good one. Do you mean like he... Drunk. Yeah, are you drunk? Do you mean like he loved a woman, he proposed to a woman and then at the altar almost married the wrong one? Or do you mean like he realised 10 years into the marriage that that was not the right person for him? No, the first one. Right, I have no idea. How does that happen?
Starting point is 00:56:17 So there's a story that's come out about an Indonesian man who nearly married the wrong person due to a sat-nav failure. So it turns out this couple had used the location sharing feature on Google Maps, which is, I mean, you know, smart to ensure that, you know, they both ended up at the ceremony on time. However, the bride's saying that she gave him the right address. He's saying she gave him the wrong address. He's turned up to the wrong church and he stood at the altar.
Starting point is 00:57:08 Even after talking to the whole family that was sitting on one side of the church. And he didn't realise that he didn't know anyone in the room? Well, he eventually did realise that. That's what gave it away. Where was the other groom at his wedding? Can you imagine? So apparently it just so happened that these two weddings were happening around the same time, but the groom hadn't turned up to his actual wedding yet.
Starting point is 00:57:32 Yeah. So he thought, oh, this must be my wedding. This is classic men. This is a classic example of a man who has had zero input into the planning of his own wedding. He's just gone with the flow. The whole way along, his partner has gone, babe, do you like this venue? He's like, his partner has gone, babe, do you like this venue?
Starting point is 00:57:47 He's like, yeah, love it. Babe, do you like this dress? He's like, yeah, love it. And then on the day it's come back to bite him in the ass because he had no idea where the actual wedding was. Don't blame her if you don't know where you're getting married on the day of the wedding. This is my favourite part of the story. You know when he realised
Starting point is 00:58:04 for sure that he was in the wrong church or venue is as the bride started to walk down the aisle, he looked up and he goes, wait a minute. I've made a terrible mistake. I'm either, correct me if I'm wrong, but that's not my Sheila. The groomsmen that he doesn't know, they're like, you're just getting cold feet, bro. It's fine.
Starting point is 00:58:33 Look, in life, sometimes you make mistakes. And the best way to deal with it, if you're in the wrong, take it on the chin. Own it. Own it. And just say, you know what? I stuffed up. You know what? I stuffed up. You know what?
Starting point is 00:58:45 We stuffed up. And that's exactly what you and I are doing because last week, on Friday at this exact time, we talked about a story that was gripping the nation, or so we thought. The story that they wanted to change the name of Fairy Bread as it offended certain people. People were getting up in arms that Fairy Bread was now offensive.
Starting point is 00:59:10 Yeah, they were saying... Fairy Bread was getting cancelled. Fairy Bread was getting cancelled. You and I talked about it in depth. We've actually got a few of our opinions from Friday. Here's what we said. It's meant to be magical, right? It's meant to be a magical food.
Starting point is 00:59:23 Yeah, it's meant to be like from fairies. From fairies. From like, you know, Tinkerbell, those type of fairies. Yeah, what we said. It's meant to be magical, right? It's meant to be a magical food. It's meant to be like from fairies. From fairies. From like, you know, Tinkerbell, those type of fairies. Yeah, yeah, yeah. If you rename fairy bread, you have to rename fairies. That's the thing. Oh, we're impassioned. Oh, we're you know, on board. And we've been had, Quentin Roberts, because
Starting point is 00:59:39 this is embarrassing. But turns out the whole thing was a hoax. It was absolute BS. I sent this to you. I found it on TikTok on the weekend. It was a group of people who were seeing if they could get a fake story trending. And guess what?
Starting point is 00:59:55 They succeeded because we ended up talking about it. It's not just any group of people, can I say. So I don't feel as bad. It's a team called The Chaser. And if you don't know who these guys are, they are notorious pranksters in Australia. Very smart and intelligent
Starting point is 01:00:12 men. They had a whole TV show around doing things like this. So we've been had by the best. Yeah. But they got us hook, line and sinker. Well, it's your fault, by the way. You bought the story. I was just an innocent bystander. It's not my fault that I believe you.
Starting point is 01:00:28 It's not my fault that I trust you, okay? Hey, did you have any inkling at the time? No, because I trust you. Did you stand up and say, oh, this doesn't sound right to me? No, no. This doesn't sound right. That's why this afternoon Bree would like to issue in a personal apology to the listeners of ZM. So when you're ready, you can go for it.
Starting point is 01:00:53 I'm sorry that I don't have a co-host smart enough to make me stop doing these things.
