Starting point is 00:00:00 Hi everybody, welcome to the Bree and Clint podcast show Where we podcast all the best bits from the real show I have a question, because at the moment Is it about my pop socket on my phone? Nah, I don't really care about the pop socket, that's pretty old news You don't want to ask me about how the pop socket's going? No, I want to talk about how I had to get, well, my TV wasn't, my TV was taken. It was stolen.
Starting point is 00:00:29 We still don't know the culprit. No, it was. Your flatmate moved out and took his TV with him. Yeah, okay. That's what happened. Anyway, so we've been without a TV in the living room. We still have a TV in our room. Without a TV in the living room for three weeks now?
Starting point is 00:00:45 Move the one from your room to the living room. It's not movable. It's wired into the wall. It's a Samsung frame. You don't understand. These things are very high tech. You cannot move it. Or else that would be a great option.
Starting point is 00:00:57 But anyway, so don't have a TV in the living room. You're basically a Gen Z. Basically, I want to ask. Live it off a laptop. Do you not have a TV in your entire house? And how do you live? Yeah, I couldn't do it. TV is a relaxed time.
Starting point is 00:01:13 TV? You know those people that are like, we don't have a TV now. We have books. We've got books and Kindles. And that's what we like to do. You know what we like to do? We like to make a scone. We make scones from scratch.
Starting point is 00:01:26 Can I flash us back? Just get a fucking TV. Can I flash us back 18 months and the absolute fricking hoopla that you went through to try and sell your TV on Facebook Marketplace? Yeah. And now- It wasn't hoopla. I sold it in a day.
Starting point is 00:01:42 Oh, was it not hoopla? No. That might have been something else. Anyway, TV's gone. Bet you wish you still had that goddamn TV. No, I don't because it wasn't a smart TV. This is where hoarders have it over all of us. They need something, they go,
Starting point is 00:01:55 oh, lucky I saved one of those from 2003. Normally I am a hoarder for these situations. Anyway, our friend Dan, shout out to Dan. He's lent us a TV that we're using. Can we talk about people who have a TV to lend? Yeah, that's like – Must be nice. So he renovated these two units and he fully furnished both of them
Starting point is 00:02:22 because his parents were living in one of them when they were renovating it. Because they were helping him renovate them. And anyway, the parents have since moved out and he's got in renters. So then he's got this extra TV. He took the TV off the renters. Yeah. Suck it, renters. Well, the renters had their own TV.
Starting point is 00:02:38 They didn't want it. Oh, right. Sorry, renters. Yeah. Right. You're not going to get a TV now. Yeah, you're stuck. No, no, not stuck. now that you've been lent a TV
Starting point is 00:02:47 It's off your priority list Nah Until Dan needs that TV back You're not going to sort out another TV Mate, do you know nothing about me? Wait, how big is the TV then? So the TV, so this is why I know That I will still be onto this
Starting point is 00:03:02 Because the TV isn't a smart TV So you can only just get normal TV. You can't get Netflix or anything like that. You can Chromecast it though. Yeah, I tried to Chromecast. How does Chromecasting work? It's so stupid in my opinion. That's all we have on our TV.
Starting point is 00:03:17 Actually, you guys might save me a lot of time. So I've got the Chromecast in. I've set it up on my phone. How do I just put Netflix on there? So you just got the Chromecast in, I've set it up on my phone. How do I just like put Netflix on there? So you just have the app or whatever and then there's always a casting.
Starting point is 00:03:29 You can Chromecast from your laptop as well. So you always have to cast it from your phone? No. Laptop works? Yeah, laptop. So you have to,
Starting point is 00:03:36 if you've got a Chromecast, I'm not Chromecast gang either by the way. Yeah. So if you want to live Chromecast life, you've always got to run a supplementary device.
Starting point is 00:03:44 That's what I mean. That's what I was asking. Your TV can't just do TV for you. Can't I download an app or something onto my TV? No, no. So it goes on in the background, though. So you just open up your phone. Yeah, but you always have to have a phone or a laptop.
Starting point is 00:03:59 Yes. Yes. That's what I mean. You always have to have a secondary device. I can't simply search. God, this is the biggest First world problem ever My flatmate leaves
Starting point is 00:04:07 And Sky will still be on But you have to You're right yes You have to start With a TV and something else But You don't No but
Starting point is 00:04:15 Answer Do you have to start With a TV and something else If I sit down And I want to watch XOXO Gossip Girl I have to begin With a phone
Starting point is 00:04:23 And a laptop And a TV. No buts. Yes or no? No buts. Yes, you need a second answer. That's it. That's the answer. You know what? I'm going to rebut. I can pull up my phone and go,
Starting point is 00:04:37 open up the Netflix app, hit Gossip Girl. Done. You know what you guys need to do? You need to press the source code button, and then you need to go to the Netflix app, and then you need to scroll through and go, scroll, scroll, scroll, G, scroll, scroll, scroll, scroll. That's not true.
Starting point is 00:04:52 Oh, on my Samsung frame, on my Samsung. Scroll, scroll, scroll, I. On my Samsung frame, it is right there. First thing, boom, I hit Netflix, and it comes up, and it works. Yeah, and you have to go, scroll scroll, scroll and type out the whole thing. No, no. I can talk to my remote. I can go, I want to watch Atypical, please, and then it just puts it in.
Starting point is 00:05:13 This is why I don't – well, my flatmate has a TV that he uses. This is why I don't have a fucking TV because, you know what? I like drama just as good, you know? Yeah. It's a generational thing. Yeah, but have you experienced what it's like laying in bed without anything sitting on your lap? No lapping, no topping.
Starting point is 00:05:34 When you're single, it can be next to you. Because when you're with someone, you need to cuddle them, you need to spoon them, and then you can also just have nothing on your lap. You can just watch it on the wall. Well, I think that's a whole couple's luxury thing. Yeah, maybe when you're single it doesn't matter. Also, the heat and radiation of the laptop is killing my sperms.
Starting point is 00:05:51 Isn't that what you want? Yeah, actually I'm done with those sperms. Yeah, I thought you were done with those. I might just strap a laptop to my crotch and walk around with it on the day to day. I reckon that would hurt less than getting a vasectomy. I used to get burns on my legs from having my laptop on my legs. Oh yeah. Especially when you live in Australia. It's so
Starting point is 00:06:10 friggin hot so then the laptop overheats and it's like and it sounds like it's going to blow up. Metal laptops. Anyway the TV is ordered. It's so popular that it's going to take six weeks to get here. What did you get? Don't even ask that question, mate.
Starting point is 00:06:26 There's only one TV. A Samsung frame. Actually, did you actually get a big Samsung frame? Yes. But my partner, who's a nurse, means we get a massive discount because people who work at the hospital get a big discount. Because they're rich. Everyone who works at the hospital is rich.
Starting point is 00:06:42 What? There was a joke about how they're not rich. They are in the hospital. No, but that's why they get a discount. I know. they're rich everyone who works in the hospital is rich what there was a joke about how they're not rich they are in the hospital no but that's why they get a discount I know saying something

Starting point is 00:08:50 not just or at least feel something about it, even if you didn't have to get up at 4 o'clock in the morning. The house behind our house, because we live on like a right away, and there's three houses behind us. One of the houses is unoccupied at the moment. The tenants moved out and the owner's kind of renovating it. At 11 o'clock last night,
Starting point is 00:09:11 the alarm went off in a house that has no tenants in it and it just kept going and it was so loud and because there's no one there to turn it off, you just have to wait. So you have to wait until it stops going off. So it went off for about five minutes, which at 11 o'clock at night goes forever.
Starting point is 00:09:28 And then when it stops, this ringing stops and you're like, oh my God, thank God, thank God, thank God. Got back to sleep
Starting point is 00:09:33 for three minutes and then the alarm went off again. How long does it go for? It goes for like five or ten minutes at a time before it just runs
Starting point is 00:09:40 itself out. But they're not there. It's not like you can go and bang on the door and go, turn your alarm off. Yeah, what do you do? That's like the time that I got home.
Starting point is 00:09:47 I was going to call the police. I was like, will the police kick the door down and cut the wires or something? I've got a very urgent matter, police. I need a nap. It's like the time I got home from New Year's and my phone had died and I was very steamed and I'd forgotten the alarm code.
Starting point is 00:10:04 Yes, that's right. Because normally I've got it on my phone, but my phone had died. So I opened the door and the alarm started going off at like one in the morning. And then so I had to wait until my phone got enough charge to remember the code. Cancel house alarms. They don't work. No one came to check if there were burglars or anything. I was going to say, what really happens when it goes off?
Starting point is 00:10:25 Exactly right. Hey, shout out to anyone in the Upper South Island at the moment who's dealing with those floods that came in over the weekend. Jeez, that looks brutal. Yeah. That is full on. So much rain. A lot of people forced out of their homes.

And I assume you mean their relationship, right? Yeah, they seem really cute, and they've got, like, you know, a ton of kids, and all the kids are cool. Yeah, and then I brought back the memories of his affair with that woman, Rebecca Luz.
Starting point is 00:15:20 And then you said you don't know about their affair. I don't think I ever. Maybe I blocked it out because I just wanted to believe that there is a celebrity relationship that is good. It was such a scandal. It was such a big deal. And she ended up, because it was a whole Daily Mail thing, them getting busted, hooking up and stuff.
Starting point is 00:15:36 Yeah. And then she ended up becoming like a global celebrity because she was the other woman. And she has done like a tour of the world. And I remember working at a radio station and she has done like a tour of like tour of the world and I remember working at a radio station and she came in for an interview like we we didn't interview her but the show I was

Starting point is 00:16:19 Who's she with? She's with that real cute comedian guy. We're talking about like 2007, by the way. Their relationship has recovered. Yeah, well, obviously. And they're probably stronger for it. Yeah, I want what Emily Blunt and John Krasinski. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:36 You know that guy? Is that what you want now? No, or I want what Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively have. That's what everyone wants. That looks cute. No, but Emily Blunt and John Krasinski look more real, more believable. I'd take a Mashton Kutcher Mila Kunis as well. Oh, yeah, that's pretty cute. But they've had their fair share of problems too.
Starting point is 00:16:57 Have they? Yeah. Why? They were together and then he went off for a little bit and dated Demi Moore. Oh, that's right. Started a whole other family and then eventually they found each other. Did he have kids with Demi Moore? No.
Starting point is 00:17:09 He just raised her kids. He just raised her kids. And Bruce Willis was just always there. But it was awkward because he was only two years older than her kids, but he still helped raise them. Yeah, right. But then, you know what is cute? Do you think it's like, because obviously they met on the set
Starting point is 00:17:29 of that 70s show when they were like 15, like 14 or 15, and they obviously were perfect for each other, but then they, you know how we always talk about, they met right person, wrong time. Yeah. And you don't always get a second chance, but how cool that they came back around and now they're with the right person, right time. Mm-hmm. Yeah. And you don't always get a second chance, but how cool that they came back around and now they're with the right person, right time.
Starting point is 00:17:48 Mm-hmm. Yep. Whoa! There's some wholesome content for you in the morning. By the way, we have that in our relationships. Yeah. I definitely look like Mila Kunis. I thought you were more of an Ashton, actually.
Starting point is 00:18:02 Hey, I'll take either. No, you're Bruce Willis. We're filling in for Fletchford and Megan. See over the weekend that someone finally did it. They beat Tony Hawk's skateboarding recordy thingy.
Starting point is 00:18:15 What record? Strimming this for a second. Hang on. Oh yeah. Tony Hawk. What was it? Pro Skater? Tony Hawk Pro Skater
Starting point is 00:18:23 one and two. That made him millions. Get this. Do you know how many copies of that game have been sold? Oh, it'd be something insane. 1.5 billion copies of Tony Hawk Pro Skater. Isn't that mental? That's so crazy.
Starting point is 00:18:40 So he rose to fame because he was the first man, Tony Hawk was the first man to pull a trick called a 900, which is two and a half full rotations. Seven spins in a row. Yeah. I think it's two and a half full rotations. Ben, can you get a calculator? So go 360 plus 360 plus 660 LAB, plus Drax Project.
Starting point is 00:19:07 Equals Mitch James. Yeah, right. Go 360 plus 360 plus 180. Okay, 360 plus 360. That's how much you owe me in rent. Come on, man. 330. What?
Starting point is 00:19:22 No, far out. 360 plus 360 plus 360. Yeah. Plus 180. 900. 900. There it is. Loving watching you boys do maths.
Starting point is 00:19:31 Cool. So Tony Hawk did two and a half spins on a half pipe, and he was the first person to ever do it. And when he did it, they're like, damn, that shit's impossible. Well, over the weekend, and this always happens, Tony Hawk got beaten by someone who did a 1080, which is three full spins, and that person was a 12-year-old kid.
Starting point is 00:19:50 Oh, no, Tony. This is what happens, eh? You know the worst thing is that Tony is past his prime, so he can't even come back and attempt it. So, yeah, yeah, yeah. I also said the kid has an advantage. How old do you reckon, quick round of the age game, how old do you guys reckon Tony Hawk is? Yeah, he'd be... I know, so I yeah, yeah. I also said the kid has an advantage. How old do you reckon, quick round of the age game, how old do you guys reckon Tony Hawk is?
Starting point is 00:20:07 He'd be... I know, so I'm not competing. 47. 47. Ben, how old is Tony Hawk? I was going to say over 58. 48, 50. 52.
Starting point is 00:20:16 Tony Hawk, and bear in mind, he's still competing at the X Games, is 53. Jeez. He was there at the X Games where this kid beat his record. Here's a little bit of the kid doing it. Have a listen. Here we go. See it.
Starting point is 00:20:33 Told you. On the final attempt, he finally puts down the tag. Told you, man. Are you kidding me? The kid is 12-year-old Brazilian skateboarding prodigy Guy Curie. And get this, when Tony Hawk pulled the first 900 in 1999, he was 31. This kid, Guy Curie, was still nine years away from being born. God, I hope my kids are talented, eh?
Starting point is 00:21:04 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Bree and Clint. Time for the latest. From iHeartRadio, this is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy. So apparently, Dean, Ashton Kutcher has been told by Mila Kunis, his wife, that he's not allowed to do something. He's right. She's put her foot down.
Starting point is 00:21:24 So Ashton Kutcher was one of the first people to buy a ticket on Virgin Galactic, which is a $250,000 trip to out of space. Okay. Now this was years ago. They've been working on this for years. It's had quite a few failed attempts. Actually,
Starting point is 00:21:39 this is Richard Branson's rocket that will take you to out of space. Now here's the deal, right? So she has made him return his ticket. He actually sold it back to Virgin Galactic because she was afraid that, you know, they've got two young children. It's not really that well tested.
Starting point is 00:21:56 It failed many times, although Richard has just completed the first trip himself, personally, and landed back on Earth. But, yeah, so she put her foot down. Now, one of my best friends, Tom, actually has one of these tickets. He paid $250,000. He was one of the first ones as well. And they basically, yeah, one of my best mates, Tom,
Starting point is 00:22:15 who I'm always on his plane. You know on Instagram when we're always messaging about private jets? Listen to you, the most unrelatable person on New Zealand radio. You know how I always fly on his private jet. Yeah, him. Is he going to go, Dean, or is he going to sell it? Yeah. No, no, he's actually really close friends with Richard Branson.
Starting point is 00:22:34 In fact, when COVID happened, he spent the whole year on Richard Branson's islands with him. They're really tight. So he is going. He thinks it's worth every cent. 600 people have bought one of these tickets. 600 people have bought a ticket out of space. So, you know, there are a lot of people very game to do this. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity.
Starting point is 00:22:54 How relatable is it Mila Kunis telling Ashton Kutcher he's not allowed to go to space because she doesn't want to be stuck down on Earth looking after the kids? She's like, yeah, I know you want to go to space, but what about these bloody kids you made me have? There's no way you're getting stuck up there and I'm stuck down here looking after these snot-nosed brats. Super relatable because she's not letting him do something,
Starting point is 00:23:13 but also, on the other hand, super unrelatable because she's not letting him go to space. What is the world in 2021? It's hard to figure out That is the latest with our Hollywood correspondent Reporting live from a private jet, I think His best mate Tom's private jet I think Richard Branson's island is the destination
Starting point is 00:23:35 He's calling us on a gold iPhone That's Dean McCarthy Live out of Los Angeles We missed it, guys I can't believe we missed this And sorry I didn't message you guys on Saturday. Saturday was World Emoji Day. Oh, Devo.

Starting point is 00:27:07 Yeah. A cupcake. Oh, yeah. I don't know why. Isn't that when you fart in your hand and put it in someone's face? I didn't want to reveal that on air, but... And funnily enough, the fluff sign. Yeah, there you go.
Starting point is 00:27:21 Perfect. No taco. The wind. Let's go to church, everybody. Take me to church. Take me to church. I was listening to some Hoosier on the weekend. I like a bit of Hoosier.
Starting point is 00:27:37 Same. What was his other song? That Bury Me song. How's it going, producer Anastasia? You're miming the words. So I fall in love just a little bit every day with someone new. Yeah, that song. I don't recall that song.

Starting point is 00:28:09 that the record company said to Hoosier after Take Me to Church. You need to lighten it up a bit. Lighten the mood a bit. Let's bring up the mood. He's like, how about this?
Starting point is 00:28:19 Oh, I fall in love. Anyway, this is a Episcopal Nun. I think that's how you say it. A what? Episcopal. Episcopal? Episcopal. Episcopal nun. I think that's how you say it. A what? Episcopal.
Starting point is 00:28:27 Episcopal? Episcopal. Episcopal? Episcopal. Episcopal. A nun from Georgia in the US. She's gone viral on TikTok because fans have demanded, they've demanded to know what her skincare routine is. Why?
Starting point is 00:28:41 Because she looks so young. She does look so young. Ben, bring her up on the screen. Her name is Claudette Powell. Oh yeah, good skin. She's 55 and her fans are calling her the queen of clear skin. When you look at this picture of this
Starting point is 00:28:53 55 year old nun, you've got to remember she's not wearing any makeup because she's a nun. So she looks like that with no makeup on. Pretty good for 55, right? She looks great. Her skin looks very taut and tight. It does. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:08 What's her secret? Is it the power of Christ? That was an Austin Powers reference, right? No? Move on. Okay. I'll tell you later. Okay.
Starting point is 00:29:18 Is it holy water? Is it prayer that keeps her skin looking so good? A bunch of really nice ladies have left comments on here saying that they think i look a lot younger than i am and i just want to say thank you that's really nice and people have been sending me direct messages uh asking what my skincare routine is which is really hilarious to me so i'm going to give you three guesses as to what her skincare routine is before we reveal it for anybody, how can you look as good as Claudette Powell, the Episcopal nun from Georgia? Is it, you know, ingredients found in the depths of the Amazon?
Starting point is 00:29:57 No. Also not a scrub made of salt from the Dead Sea. Yeah. But they're so good. But the guy in the mall just reckons it's so good. You know I bought that, I got condom to buy the Dead Sea one, that exact one, and I got the biggest rash, and I had to take it back to them and be like,
Starting point is 00:30:15 you gave me this rash. They're like, no take backs. Sorry, no refund. Okay, no, it's not ingredients found on the Amazon or the Dead Sea. You've got two more guesses. Because she didn't have a husband or wife or kids. You know what? I reckon it is, but it's not what she said it is.
Starting point is 00:30:32 I reckon that's what it is. I reckon it's a stress-free life of being a nun. But no, that's not it. You get one more guess. Is it because she repented all of her sins? Your wrinkles are actually just sins Exactly Lines
Starting point is 00:30:46 Every scene you make There's a line on your face No that's not it Here it is The way That this 55 year old nun looks What 33? 32?
Starting point is 00:30:57 30-ish? I think I probably have A few less wrinkles Than some people my age Because I can't go out in the sun Seriously Since the late 1990s I haven't I can't go out in the sun. Seriously, since the late 1990s, I haven't been able to go out in the sun.
Starting point is 00:31:11 I get migraines from the sun, so I have to walk around. If I go out in the sun, I have to have like a sunshade or an umbrella or something. That's it. She literally just doesn't see any sunshine. That makes so much sense. Yeah. And they wear those like hats over their foreheads. Yes, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:25 Like on the full dress and stuff. Yeah, I know. That's a handmaid's tale. That's a bit. Oh. Bree and Clint. If there was ever a study that we didn't need, it was this one. Right.
Starting point is 00:31:36 Because Kiwis have been tested to see how many kilos as a country we put on in the last year. Oh, okay. As a whole. Okay, first of all, science, rough year to test us on. Well, that's why they did it, I think. A lot of comfort eating gone on in this. No, no, no. I don't care if that's the reason they did it.
Starting point is 00:31:56 That's the reason to skip the study. A lot of baking, a lot of, you know, experimenting in the kitchen. Yeah, and we couldn't go to the gym, okay? We couldn't. We literally couldn't go to the gym. Yeah, that's what I – I still can't go to the gym. Yeah, we were locked down for like four of the last 52 weeks. I do like to be safe so I don't go to the gym.
Starting point is 00:32:18 But it's quite interesting. I can't treadmill in a mask. Yeah, nah, it just doesn't work. Apparently, Kiwis put on weight 10 times faster than normal, according to this new survey. 10 times? 10 times. Wow. Isn't that crazy?
Starting point is 00:32:37 So this study's been done by a company called Exercise New Zealand, and they found... Oh, get off it, Exercise New Zealand. And they found, yeah, funnily enough, weird, isn't it? They found that the weight gain that we put on as a country as a whole was 2.8 million kilos. So obviously that means nothing, right? Because you're like, oh, that doesn't mean anything. When you say it means nothing to you,
Starting point is 00:33:06 what does it mean to the planet, to the country, you know? Struggling under our weight. So people who were like reported to put on weight, so people who said, honestly, yeah, I have put on weight, what do you think was the average amount that people put on in the last year? A couple of kilos, three or four kilos? 5.4. Oh, yeah? Yeah three or four kilos? 5.4. Oh, yeah?
Starting point is 00:33:26 Yeah, that's a – 5.4 kilos. If you're going to put on weight, you might as well put on a bit where you can. Yeah, you may as well get your money's worth. But I've done the math. You may as well go to a new belt notch. Let's say, let's just say that that 2.8 million kilos that we've put on in the last year, let's say we had to divide it equally between, you know,
Starting point is 00:33:47 a team of five million. So we all have to take the brunt of. Are we all getting it evenly? We're going to get it evenly. Like as me, six foot two, like dominant. Oh, you want to take more? Man. Okay, you can have more.
Starting point is 00:33:59 You can have 12 kilos. Well, I'm quite an imposing figure, you know. I've got like an all black stature about me. Like I can probably spread it out across this massive frame of mine. Whereas a tiny baby, is a tiny baby taking the same amount of weight in your calculations? Yeah. Okay, that seems fair. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:15 So if you take 2.8 million kilos and you, 5 million divided by 2.8 million equals 1.78 kilos each. Oh, that's nothing. Yeah. I mean, I've already put that on in some. This morning? Yeah, literally. I can do that in a weekend. I can also lose that in a morning.
Starting point is 00:34:38 I'd love to hear before we go. You know, depending on what you do in the bathroom. Oh, well, that's too much info, isn't it? Way too much info. I'd love to hear from people. You can text us on 9696. How much of that 2.8 million kilos are you taking ownership of? Oh, do you want to claim some kilos?
Starting point is 00:34:56 Yeah, claim your kilos. I'd love to just for my own benefit. How many kilos are you claiming? I probably claim three. You want three of those kilos? Okay, I'll be honest. Maybe five. Okay. I was going to say I'll take four. You take five? Yeah, roundabout. Tix is done. You only have to know how
Starting point is 00:35:09 many of those are yours. I'm going to say five. Don't you dare tix us and say you lost weight. We don't want your positivity here. Don't you dare. The people from Exercise New Zealand are like, we can help you guys. We're still mad at you, Exercise New Zealand.
Starting point is 00:35:25 No one asked for this study. Bree and Clint. I've made a boo-boo. I never thought how bad I am at maths would affect my career in radio, but it has this morning. Oh, we're issuing a retraction. I apologise. I do apologise.
Starting point is 00:35:40 But you know what? I feel like I like my calculation better because it makes me feel better about how much weight I've put on in lockdown. Right, okay, yeah. But, yeah, it's actually the other way around, 2.8 million divided by 5 million, which is about half a kilo. Yeah, I thought so. But I like mine better.
Starting point is 00:35:56 You said we'd put on 1.7 as a nation. No, yeah, if we spread it evenly. If we spread it evenly. We're only 500 grams each. Which, I mean, you know, it makes me feel better considering I've put on a bit more. But yeah, thank you for correcting me on the text machine. A lot of people texting in to claim their kilos, by the way.
Starting point is 00:36:14 How many of that 2 point something million kilos are yours? We have had a text from someone who said, I know you don't want to hear this, but I lost five kilos during lockdown. If it makes you feel better, I've put it all back on since. It does make me feel better. So we appreciate you feel better, I've put it all back on since. It does make me feel better. So we appreciate you texting us. Let's go to space.
Starting point is 00:36:30 Space, so hot right now. It's so hot right now. Ah, hot right now. Billionaires have gone, you know what? We can't go to the Maldives. We can't go to... Where are some millionaires going? Fiji?
Starting point is 00:36:43 Bahamas. Bahamas. So we'll go to space. It's a weird flex too because we went to space in the 60s and now billionaires are like, we're boldly going where some other people have gone before, but we're billionaires. But never normal people.
Starting point is 00:36:59 But they're not normal people. That's the thing. They're billionaires. I know, but they're not trained for space, are they? That's a good point. So who went first? Branson went first. And Bezos goes next.
Starting point is 00:37:13 I think he goes this week. Remember we talked about the person. Is he going this week? I think it's this week, yeah. God, how ticked off would you be if you were Bezos? There was one seat for sale on Bezos Rocket. He's like, I'm going to pick my crew, but one of the seats, I'll put it up for auction.
Starting point is 00:37:30 And it sold for $40 million, that seat. Wow. And everyone's like, who is going on that? Who got Bezos' other seat? Well, it's been revealed that after a $40 million bid on the blue auction rocket, the winner is an 18-year-old from the Netherlands. No.
Starting point is 00:37:50 How? So this'll, this'll, this'll, this'll. How is an 18-year-old spending $40 million? So you know how some people have friends whose parents buy everything for them? Yeah. This guy's dad won the seat on the rocket. He paid $40 million to go on Bezos' rocket into space.
Starting point is 00:38:12 And due to a scheduling conflict, can't go. So he's given the seat to his son. What is more important that you have to go to that you can't go to the thing that you spent $40 million on? Yeah, what is the meeting that's taking place that means you can't go to that you spent, that you can't go to the thing that you spent $40 million on. Yeah, what is the meeting that's taking place that means you can't go into outer space? That's crazy. Anyway, good for the kid, right? We're just jealous, but good for the kid.
Starting point is 00:38:33 Can you imagine? You're 18. Like I was just stoked to be let into clubs. Yeah. To go out clubbing. Did you have any rich mates who got their parents hand-me-down cars, but their hand-me-down cars were like a BMW? So I went to a very fancy private school.
Starting point is 00:38:52 Yeah. And I was on like six different scholarships so that my family could afford it. Nice. So everyone else at the school, like they'd roll up in their like parents hand-me-down Range Rovers. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. One kid was driving a Maserati.
Starting point is 00:39:05 One kid was driving a DB9. I was like, this is so ridiculous. No, wait, there was not a kid at your school driving an Aston Martin. Yes, there was. Because I remember specifically that the James Bond movie where that car was super prominent was out around the time, and I was like, oh, my God, he's got the James Bond car. A kid at your school had the James Bond car?
Starting point is 00:39:27 Yeah. Wow, that is a rich school. And funnily enough, he didn't get any girlfriends. Anyway, this kid who's 18 will become the youngest person to go into space alongside the oldest person to go into space because 82 year old wally funk that's the female astronaut who never got to go into space she's going to right bezos is going to take her that's pretty cool the oldest and the youngest i love that yeah and he's being
Starting point is 00:39:57 dropped to the rocket in his aston martin like i said we're, but 18 years old. Come on. Dancing. Bree and Clint. There is something I saw on your Instagram over the weekend, Bree, about your dog, Wendy Houston. Which I'm not just going to let slide, okay? I'm just not going to let this one go. Sorry, I let a lot of shit go. I'm not going to let this one go, okay? Okay.
Starting point is 00:40:20 I saw yesterday morning your wonderful partner cooking breakfast for you guys. And I did the calculations as a tired parent who'd been up since 6.30 in the morning. Yes. I did the calculations about when it was posted. Looks like you guys got out of bed at about quarter past 10 in the morning on Saturday. No, it was at least 9.45. Oh, must be nice. But she's cooking you breakfast in the kitchen.
Starting point is 00:40:44 And it's a delightful looking breakfast. There's some scrambies, there's some bacon. There's corn fritters. Corn fritters in there as well. Yeah, corn fritters, a salsa and some bacon. Yeah, I saw the salsa. I saw a little bit of garnish of flat leaf parsley, the fancy parsley.
Starting point is 00:40:58 Yes. Not regular povo parsley. You're using Italian parsley. From our herb garden. From the herb garden. Are those cubes of feta that I can see on top of the breakfast as well? Yep, quite expensive, the old feta. Delightful.
Starting point is 00:41:10 It's obviously a weekend date for you guys. We spare no expense in our household though. On each other? Yeah. I understand. Your camera then pans slightly to the left, which reveals a dog bowl in which the exact same breakfast is being prepared for your dog, Whitney Houston.
Starting point is 00:41:29 And when I say exact same breakfast, I'm talking corn fritters, bacon, salsa, feta, all of that. But a miniature version. But a miniature version presented in the same style. Like the breakfast has been finessed and then it's been garlish garnished with flat leaf parsley as well can i just say in my defense i feel like we actually are quite strict because she wanted poached eggs but we said no you will eat what we are having um and that's how it
Starting point is 00:42:01 went down no to be honest i woke up woke up and I walk out into the kitchen and here's my partner whipping up this amazing breakfast for us and I was like, what the hell are you doing? And then I see that there's this amazing breakfast cooked for my dog. Can I say I was not involved? Really? I wasn't. So you had no input into this?
Starting point is 00:42:21 No, I was not involved in it. I was quite taken aback. Your dog had a better breakfast than me on the weekend. It did look pretty good, didn't it? And you know what it does? It brings a whole new meaning to the saying, looks like a dog's breakfast. Because if something looked like a dog's breakfast
Starting point is 00:42:36 and it looked like that, that thing looks like it cost $18 at a Ponsonby cafe. So the real question is, did your dog enjoy its fancy human breakfast? You know, the sad part is that she actually did. I think she loves a fancy breakfast. Because I would have thought that maybe,
Starting point is 00:42:51 like, do dogs even like tomato? Like, we've heard that tomatoes can be poisonous to dogs, but I mean, she loves cherry tomatoes. Someone's going to text us after this and go, you can't give dogs feta. I know. Or, dogs are hugely allergic to Italian flat leaf parsley. Nah, she's fine.
Starting point is 00:43:08 The dog's fine, right? Nah, she's fine. She'll be fine. I mean, it was a miniature version. We didn't give her that much. The first time I experienced this, and I mean, I'm a little bit of a hypocrite. When I first adopted our cats, Ziggy and Bowie,
Starting point is 00:43:20 they were paleo. No, can I say that is worse than mine. They were paleo. No, can I say that is worse than mine. They were paleo. Yours, that is worse. They didn't stay paleo, but we were told that they were paleo. Why? Did they move into a new diet, did they? They were doing CrossFit at the time.
Starting point is 00:43:40 But as their CrossFit membership expired, we took them off the paleo diet. Yeah, fair enough. And currently they're enjoying a diet of grain-free kangaroo meat, but at least it comes out of a cat food bag, right? And they eat it on the floor out of a cat food bowl. Oh, Lord. Your dog was eating out of a ceramic bowl. No, that's her dog bowl.
Starting point is 00:43:57 That is her dog bowl. Jeez, there's dogs out there listening to this right now going, must be nice. You should see her use a knife and fork. It's pretty amazing. The first time I experienced this is when I stayed at my uncle's house and he fed his cats at the dinner table. No, he did not.
Starting point is 00:44:13 They had roast chicken and there was a special bowl of shredded chicken for the cats and the cats had their own stools so they could eat at the dinner table with mum and dad. You're kidding me. That's the first time I experienced pets that ate better than me. I was like, these animals have a better diet than I do. Oh, yeah, people love it. People love treating their pets.
Starting point is 00:44:32 And I get it. Like, I get it if that's what makes you feel like. Hey. That's cool. You're not hurting anyone. But when people come around and they see what you're doing, they would react. They think you're weird, yeah.
Starting point is 00:44:41 They'd react in this way, right? Absolutely. Let's talk to some people this morning whose pets eat better than even you do. Like are you putting more effort into your animal's food than you are putting into your own food? Yeah, how much effort goes into preparing meals for your pets? Maybe it's your partner.
Starting point is 00:44:58 Maybe your partner's like slaving over a hot stove for the dog but doesn't bother to make you dinner. A slow cooked casserole. A eight hour pulled pork done in the oven just for the dog but doesn't bother to make you dinner. A slow cooked casserole. A eight hour pulled pork done in the oven just for the dog. Smoked salmon. Let us know. Oh, $800 at any point. You can text us on 9696. Bree and Clint.
Starting point is 00:45:15 We want to know if your animal is eating better than you do. I follow this page on TikTok and it's this company that makes these amazing elaborate meals for dogs. Oh, yeah. And they put like an array of different things like from a fish to venison to eggs and they like plate it up like it's a really fancy meal.
Starting point is 00:45:36 Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's cool. And then the dog goes. And it's gone in like two seconds. Much like me when I go to a fancy restaurant. This is a sad side note, but have you watched those and seen those? There used to be BuzzFeed articles about them all the time. And now I think there's TikToks about them.
Starting point is 00:45:51 People who treat their dog to like a last day if their dog is sick. Oh, no. Why are you bringing this up? But then the meals that they give the dog for the dog's last meal, for its happiest day, it's usually cheeseburgers. Spoiler, it's usually cheeseburgers. I've seen some. Or the food it wasn't allowed to eat while it was.
Starting point is 00:46:10 Ice cream. Ice cream, yeah, yeah, yeah. Chocolate, the dog gets to try chocolate. No, I don't think that's a good idea. Really? Well, the dog's going to be put down the next day. Well, it probably would die before it got put down. Cigarettes, they give the dog a cigarette.
Starting point is 00:46:22 Have a hoon on this. Yeah. The dog's like, have you ever wanted to on this. Yeah. The dog's like, have you ever wanted to try meth, dog? The dog's like, well, actually. Today is the day. It's your day.
Starting point is 00:46:32 Jacinda's here. Kia ora, Jacinda. Hi, Jacinda. Hi, how's it going? Good, thanks. Does your animal eat better than you do? Not me. It's a childhood memory
Starting point is 00:46:42 from going and staying at my aunt's on the farm. Yeah. So this was like a working sheep farm. And my aunt, she was and still is a very hardworking woman. So, you know, she'd get up in the morning and she'd milk the cows, you know, like for our breakfast and stuff. But what I distinctly remember is her getting up and making this big pot of like barley and vegetable stew. And it was for the pigs during winter because she didn't want them to have a cold meal.
Starting point is 00:47:08 Yeah, and so some of the chickens would get some, and these are just, like, regular, like, pigs. She's cooking the pigs. She's cooking the pigs a hot winter meal. Yeah, she is, because she didn't want them to have cold food, and we'd eat cornflakes. Your aunt, yeah, but did you have to be outside in the sty all night, Jacinda? No, no.
Starting point is 00:47:31 That's incredible. Rianne's here. Kia ora, Rianne. Hi, Rianne. Hi, how are you? Good, thanks. Is it your pet that eats better than you? Yes, my partner started it when she was a puppy and for the last nine months I've had
Starting point is 00:47:44 to carry it on. What is it? So she gets raw venison, a little bit of dog roll from the butcher, grated carrot, LSA, apple cider vinegar, mixed veggies, and we also put in a raw egg with the shell, and sometimes she gets some fish oil or something on top of it as well. Oh, my God. That sounds delightful.
Starting point is 00:48:05 What's a dog like on LSD? LSA. Oh, LSA. Sorry, I misheard you. I was like, whoa. It's a really introspective dog. That dog's having a weird trip. That's so fancy.
Starting point is 00:48:21 The dog's favourite band? Tame Impala. Yeah, loves it. Let's follow on. Thanks, Rhian. Let's talk Impala. Yeah, loves it. Let's follow on. Thanks, Rhian. Let's talk to Maggie. Morning, Maggie. Hi, Maggie.
Starting point is 00:48:29 Good morning. Is it your dog that eats better than you? It is my dog. So for her birthday this year, I made her a two-tiered cake out of carrots and peanut butter with mashed potato icing. You're joking. A two-tiered cake like the dog is a wedding cake?
Starting point is 00:48:44 Wait. Is this something that you do? Like, or you just decided, I'm going to try my hand at making a dog birthday cake? Yeah. I just thought it would be awesome, and she loved it. Had a little strawberry garnish. It's so cute. How did your dog go with blowing out the candles?
Starting point is 00:48:58 There wasn't a candle because I don't like fire, and she doesn't like fire either. Stupid question. No sugar as well. Stupid question for me me to be honest. She's on a low-carb diet. She's atkin. She's, what's that one? What's the one everyone's doing?

Actually yeah I apologise It kind of could have sounded like I said that LAB fans smell bad That's what I thought you were saying Nah I was making a weed joke Gotcha Nah we got there in the end
Starting point is 00:49:39 We got there in the end This is the real or fake name game It's a game without a name Where we guess the names of celebrities. You know, is it their real name or are they using a stage name? Yeah, because a lot of the time you just know them as that name
Starting point is 00:49:52 so you automatically think that's their name. Oh, you must have been born Beyonce. Fun fact, she was. She was born Beyonce. Does sound like a stage name though. Destined for greatness. We play as a team.

Starting point is 00:51:26 Let's do this. Okay. Celebrity number two is Meghan Markle. Oh. Oh. Real. Real name. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:51:36 If it wasn't her real name, they would have had to use her real name at the altar when she was marrying Prince Harry. Yeah. So we would have heard it. We would have gone, wait, that's not your name. So we're looking in real. Unfortunately,
Starting point is 00:51:48 that's incorrect. Her real name's Rachel. No. And to this day, no one knows. You know how I normally bring a fact of why they changed their name?
Starting point is 00:51:57 No one knows. Are you sure that's not her? So her character on Suits was called Rachel. Rachel Meghan Markle. Whoa. Yeah, Meghan is her middle name. Oh, whoa.
Starting point is 00:52:07 British tabloids have debated it for years. That's so fuzzy. Weird, eh? Okay. Wow. Okay, back to Brie. All right. All right, Courtney, our turn.

Starting point is 00:53:30 Cleo, I appreciate you taking the risk. And that risk paid off. That's his real name. Oh, lucky. Oh, nice. Cleo, way to stand your ground. All right. All right, Courtney, we could win if we get this one right, okay?

Starting point is 00:54:23 Okay, we can take it to tie break here, Cleo. This game is never going to end to tie break. We will take it to tie break. Oh, no. Let's do it. Here we go.
Starting point is 00:54:33 Matt LeBlanc. That's a tough one. Real name. Just real name. No, I think it's short. Yeah, real name, but... It's a fake.

Starting point is 00:55:19 Yes! Sorry, Claire Petra. Courtney, you've got $ bucks cash this morning in the real or fake name game. Well done. Thank you so much. Courtney, I feel like we bonded just now. I know. Bree and Clint. Look, I had a bit of a whoopsie over the weekend
Starting point is 00:55:37 because lately me and my partner, we've been getting into gardening and not the indoor type of gardening. I'm not talking about that this morning. I'm talking about the actual type of gardening where we've made a herb garden in our backyard. You guys voted yes in the referendum. We did. And you don't care what the results were.
Starting point is 00:55:56 Yeah, so we've started our own weed farm. No. Well, it's funny that we joke about weed farm because I was doing some work in the garden where I was pulling out some of our coriander plants and some stuff that had gone to seed. Yeah. That's a gardening term. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:12 Have you got gloves? Have you got special gloves? Yeah, we got gloves. You even bought yourself some gloves and a little trowel? Yeah, we got a little trowel and little gloves and we were, you know, getting involved. Yeah. And it was when I was working around the chive area that we like to cut off chives and put it in our scrambled eggs
Starting point is 00:56:30 every morning. How wholesome. You guys are living off the earth. I know we are. We are salt of the earth. And I realised. Farm to table. I was like, wait a minute.
Starting point is 00:56:39 I was like, I only bought five chive seedlings. So I bought five of them. Yeah. But they've now turned into seven. Oh, that's good value. Maybe they're self-propagating. I was like, this doesn't make sense because I planted them quite far apart. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:56:57 And after I like looked at it and then looked at it again, I realised that two of the chive plants that we've been using every morning is actually grass. No. We have been cutting this weed that's been growing in our herb garden and putting it in our scrambled eggs and going, ooh, aren't we so wholesome, aren't we so fancy? Look at us go. You've been putting grass in your scrambled eggs.
Starting point is 00:57:29 Yes. Actual grass. What does that tell you? Does that tell you that you don't actually enjoy the taste of chives because you couldn't tell the difference between chives and grass? Let's be real. It's one of those real fancy things that doesn't really taste like much, but it makes you think that your scrambled eggs are fancier.
Starting point is 00:57:47 But the grass looked so much like the chives that I then, upon re-looking at it, I'd realised that there was actually three grass bushes in amongst all the chives. So I don't know how much grass I've eaten in the past however many weeks. Bloody townies, eh? There's a bunch of food growers out there listening at the moment going bloody townies. I think this is what the farmers were actually protesting on Friday.
Starting point is 00:58:13 Yeah. This sort of behaviour. You know what's crazy is when my mum was here visiting, I was so confused why she kept saying to me, oh, get off the grass. It's time to do a mind-blown Monday. Stories of such massive coincidence that
Starting point is 00:58:32 they're unexplainable. Yeah. And just hearing them makes you go whoa, how could that possibly happen? I know. We like to offer a mind-blowing story first to, you know, get the ball rolling and go, hey, if we're going to ask you to front up and risk hearing this noise.
Starting point is 00:58:50 When your story doesn't match up. You know, and it's such a fine line too. It is a fine line. Really good stories can end up hearing that. Yeah, exactly. We put ourselves on the line first. Now, it's hard to come up with. Normally it's me telling you one or you telling me one
Starting point is 00:59:03 and then we judge each other. Yes. Whereas this morning's going to come up with... Normally it's me telling you one or you telling me one and then we judge each other. Yes. Whereas this morning's going to be a bit different because this story actually happened to you and I. Yes. So we can't judge each other. We're both in the story. We're both in the story.
Starting point is 00:59:16 We will defer to our expert production team, producer Ben and producer Anastasia. I'm ready. Yeah. You'll know in your gut whether this blows your mind or not. Don't pity us. Have you guys. I'm ready. Yeah. You'll know in your gut whether this blows your mind or not. Don't pity us. Have you guys just been waiting to fart us out one day? I've got the button ready to go.
Starting point is 00:59:34 Yeah. Okay. Set the scene, Bree. So for some reason, one day last week, I think it was Thursday last week, Clint and I started talking about what would be our dream classic car to own. Yeah, if money was no object, what car would we get? Yeah. What did you say yours was?
Starting point is 00:59:51 I want like a classic Porsche 911, like a 1960s Porsche 911. Yeah, very, very cool. Yeah. I said I wanted the gone in 60 seconds Eleanor Mustang. Yes. The racing back, the Shelby Mustang GT500 racing back. It's iconic.
Starting point is 01:00:10 It's iconic. Everyone knows that car. Yeah. That's what I would want because they are what? Super. Super rare. Rare.
Starting point is 01:00:16 How rare is that car? Probably pretty rare. I'd imagine. Probably pretty rare. It was the hero car of that movie because of how rare it is. Yeah, exactly. It's a Mustang. For those who aren't car people, it's a Mustang, but it's a special edition
Starting point is 01:00:30 Mustang. Yes. It's cool. Yeah. It's very cool. Okay, park that. So we had that conversation on Friday and then just park it. Had that conversation on the Thursday. On Thursday, right. On the Thursday. Very specific, talking about a very specific car, the one from Gordon 60 Seconds called Eleanor. That's what it's. On the Thursday. Very specific, talking about a very specific car,
Starting point is 01:00:45 the one from Gordon 60 Seconds called Eleanor. That's what it's called in the movie. Anyway, the next day, so Friday, the next day, Clint and I leave here at work. We leave ZM and we're on our way home. And Clint and I live near each other, so we drive on the same highway. Yes. And so we left at the same time,
Starting point is 01:01:06 so we were driving next to each other on the highway. Which, by the way, doesn't always happen. Does not always happen. We're not always, like, parallel to each other, driving along the motorway on the way home. But on this day we were. Yeah, but does sometimes happen. That's fair, does sometimes happen.
Starting point is 01:01:21 I was about 50 metres, you know, a few car lengths in front of Clint, and he was in the lane next to me. Anyway, I look to my right and I look again and I double take and I went, you've got to be kidding me. The exact Mustang from the movie Gone in 60 Seconds with the number plate on the car, Eleanor was driving right next to me in front of Clint. We both saw it
Starting point is 01:01:50 she rang me, we both saw it, it was the car. Wait. The car with the number plate and the name Eleanor on the number plate. Just so we're clear Clint's dream Porsche or whatever that wasn't. No, just Bree's one. No, just this one. Just the car we talked about. I don't think we really need to deliberate.
Starting point is 01:02:06 I'm pretty certain that's a... Yes! Wow, I was not expecting that. It took us to the edge. I was not expecting that. You know what makes it, though, is that how rare the car... Yeah. I'm going to look up how rare that car is in New Zealand,
Starting point is 01:02:20 but the fact it had the number plate... The number plate, the car... You talked about it the day before. You talked about it the day before. The day before. And we were both driving beside the car. Bree calls me on her car play and then we're talking about this car and the car's in between the two of us.
Starting point is 01:02:34 And together you trap the car and bring it home. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Caught at 60 seconds. I fired my net. Bree brought up the rear. So there you go. Okay, good. Fantastic story. Okay, cool. I'm glad we...
Starting point is 01:02:45 Fantastic story. Yeah, good. Okay, cool. Thank you. We kicked it off with a win. I was pretty shocked. Why is it in New Zealand? You know how crazy...
Starting point is 01:02:50 No, it's not the car. It's one of the cars. It's a model. Well, it's one of... It's the exact car, but... Wait, wait. Did you think it was the car from the movie? I thought it might have been the car.
Starting point is 01:02:59 No take backs. No take backs. No take backs. No take backs. Oh, no. He thought it was the car. No take backs. Oh, no. No take backs. Oh, no. He thought it was the car. No take backs. Oh, no.
Starting point is 01:03:05 No take backs. Oh, no, it's a fart. It's a fart. No. Oh, no. You can't take him back. Well, hey, it could have been. Your chance now.
Starting point is 01:03:16 How do we know? Could have been the car. Your chance to blow our mind. Are you willing to risk it all and tell a mind-blowing coincidence story on air this morning? You need to call us on 0800 dials at M. You can text it to 9696, but we're short on time, so we'd love you just to call us. Yeah, back yourself. Back yourself in.
Starting point is 01:03:34 Give it a go, you know? Let's hear your incredible stories next. Getting farted out isn't the end of the world, you know? It's quite a badge of honour. You'll survive. Yeah. Brian Clint. It's quite a badge of honour. You'll survive. Yeah. Brian Clint. It's a Mind Blow Monday.
Starting point is 01:03:47 We asked you to blow our minds, and we just attempted to. Just before we do this, Ben's saying that there is no eligible mind blowings this morning. He said none of the... God, you're being harsh this morning, but... Is he pre-blowing them? Oh, shit. Oh, don't say that.
Starting point is 01:04:04 Don't say that. Don't say that. Is he pre-screening them is what I was... Yeah, pre-screening. I think he's talking to someone right now, actually. Okay, all right. So we'll just recap our one just while he gets that person on. Bree and I talking about our favourite classic cars, what we'd have. You brought up the car from Gone in 60 Seconds, the Shelby GT500 Mustang.
Starting point is 01:04:26 Yeah. That's the one that I would pick. It's rare, it's iconic, and it's hot. Fast forward one day, and the next morning you and I just happen to be driving along the motorway next to each other, and the car in between the two of us is a Shelby GT500 Mustang with the number plate Eleanor, which was the name of the car, in Gone in 60 Seconds.
Starting point is 01:04:47 What are the odds? Anyway, I said I'd love to know how many of those cars exist in New Zealand. Yes. Someone texted through and they said there's only two in New Zealand, both built at Matamata Panel Works. See? Even better. Very rare.
Starting point is 01:05:04 Even better. So rare. We got one, Ben? We got one we can use? Okay, good. Samantha's Works. See? Even better. Very rare. Even better. So rare. We got one, Ben? We got one we can use? Okay, good. Samantha's here. Good morning, Samantha. Hi, Samantha.
Starting point is 01:05:11 Hi, morning. A lot of pressure on you this morning, Samantha, because so far you're the only person who's called through to tell their story, so it's all on your shoulders. Okay. All right. And just before you do it, if we have to fart you out, Samantha, we're sorry. It's just the way the universe works sometimes. It just has to be done. Okay,
Starting point is 01:05:31 Sam? Fair enough. Fair enough. Go for it. Okay. So I'm from Scotland and I moved over here when I was like a little girl. And when I became like a teenager I started working in a bar and the people were in and like talking away and they're like you look really familiar how do we know you turns out they're Scottish too they're from my hometown my parents used to own a bar in this town in Scotland and my mum used to serve them as like their regulars and now they're all the way in New Zealand and I'm living in New Zealand and I'm serving them as well as a bartender. Wait, they recognised
Starting point is 01:06:11 you because you like just from your mum. They have never met you before. No, never met me before. Me and my mum are like twins. What? You know why you get it? It's because of the fact that... Because you're from Scotland
Starting point is 01:06:28 and we love Scottish people on our show. You know what? My explanation is not going to beat that. Congratulations, Samantha. You win. Yay! You're having baby back ribs tonight, Samantha. Bree and Clint.
Starting point is 01:06:47 It's my birthday. It's my birthday. Bree and Clint's birthday banger. Right, if you've never heard this before, then you're in for a treat. This is where we get you guys to call up, tell us your birthdays, and we figure out what was the actual number one song on your 16th birthday. Then we all reminisce and we play our favourite one. Yeah, the best one gets played as a bit of a mood booster.
Starting point is 01:07:08 Goes well in the mornings, this feature, I think, for that reason. I think so too. You need that pick-me-up in the morning, don't you? Let's start with Kylie. Morning, Kylie. Hi, Kylie. Good morning. How are you?
Starting point is 01:07:19 I'm good. How are you guys? Oh, you know, Monday. Monday, I'll be honest. It's a little tough on a Monday, but we're here. We're living life. What's your birthday, Kylie? 7th September, 1986.
Starting point is 01:07:31 All right, mate. You were 16 in 2002 on the 7th of September. And Kylie, here's your birthday banger. Tell me why do you have to go and make things so complicated? I see the way you're... Chad Kroger's missus. Hey, she's famous enough in her own right to say who she is, use her name. Avril, you get Avril Lavigne in Convocated Kylie.
Starting point is 01:07:58 Do you like it? Wonderful. Oh, she would have gone after Scott. Oh, okay. It's not pretty good, pretty iconic. I swear I read an article that she would have gone after Scott. Oh, okay. It's not pretty good. It's pretty iconic. I swear I read an article that she released new music the other day. Oh, she would have. I swear I read that song.
Starting point is 01:08:11 She'll still be giving it a red hot crack, won't she? She was in that TikTok with Tony Hawk. Most people are releasing music still. It just doesn't all make it onto the ZDM playlist. Like Pink, she's still cranking out songs. You know? She is. She had that song that we were playing recently.
Starting point is 01:08:27 Yeah, exactly right. Let's go to Dominique. Kia ora, Dominique. Hi, Dom. Hey. How are you this morning, mate? Morning. I'm good.
Starting point is 01:08:36 How are you guys? That's good. We're not too bad. What's your birthday, Dom? 16 November 91. Right. You were 16 in 2007 on the 16th of November. And in 2007, this reached the top of the chart.
Starting point is 01:08:58 Perfect example. Like, the Veronicas are probably still putting out new music too. I love the Veronicas. Do you like this Veronica's song, Dominique? Is your birthday banger? Can't say I do. It's a bit off. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:12 I love the honesty, Dominique. If it was untouched, if it was Veronica's untouched, yeah, you'd be silly not to put that one through to the final. I feel so untouched. We'll go to Connor for one more birthday banger. Morning, Connor. G'day, Connor. Hey, morning.
Starting point is 01:09:27 How are you? Good, mate. How's your Monday morning going? Yeah, not bad, thanks. That's good. What's your birthday, Connor? The 3rd of February, 1999. All right.
Starting point is 01:09:35 You were 16 in 2015 on the 3rd of February. And on that day, this was number one. Banger! That's huge. You like it, Connor? It's definitely the biggest song in 2015. It's going to endure that song too. That song will be a banger in 10 years' time. You got a good birthday banger, Connor. Wait there.
Starting point is 01:10:04 Although, it still gets played on the Friday Games playlist. Yeah, absolutely right. I'm not voting for it. be a banger in 10 years time. So you got a good birthday banger, Connor. Wait there. Although still gets played on the Friday Games playlist. Yeah, absolutely right. I'm not voting for him. I'm just saying he's got a good game. Just checking. I'm voting Avril Lavigne and Complicated. I'm voting Hook Me Up, The Veronicas.
Starting point is 01:10:19 You're joking. The Veronicas, Hook Me Up. Are you voting for that song or are you voting for The Veronicas? In general, The Veronicas. Fine, okay. We go to split vote. Producer Ben has the deciding vote this morning. Who's the winner of Birthday Bagger?
Starting point is 01:10:35 I'm going to go complicated. Yeah, good choice. I mean, but we... Ben, think about this for a second. We could play... Just play a little bit of The Veronicas. You played a little bit. I know, but just so Ben can hear it again. I feel like we've played enough.
Starting point is 01:10:46 No, but I just want to hear it one more time. Oh, iconic. Hey, Kylie, you've won birthday banger with Avril Lavigne. Congratulations. Hey, happy Monday. Hey, Kylie, would you rather the Veronica's though? Yeah, but not that song. Yeah, not that song.
Starting point is 01:11:03 Okay, yeah, no. Not that song. Nothing against the Veronica's, just not that song. Kylie makes not that song. Okay, yeah, no. Not that song. Nothing against Veronica, it's just not that song. See, Kylie makes sense. She talks in sense into me. There you frustrate the hell out of me some mornings. Here we go. This is for Kylie.
Starting point is 01:11:16 It's our birthday banger this morning. Avril Lavigne and Complicated. Bree and Clint, ZM. ZM, Bree and Clint. Avril Lavigne, Complicated. That's the winner of Birthday Banger this morning. That's where we find out the number one song on your 16th birthday and we play the best one in full.
Starting point is 01:11:34 I was talking about how I read last week that Avril had released new music and I think it was like making headlines because the song that she released is with Willow Smith, Will Smith's daughter. She sang I Whip My Hair Back and Forth. She's back. And also Travis. Is this the follow-up to I Whip My Hair Back and Forth?
Starting point is 01:11:55 I think so. 12 years later. I think it is. And also Travis Barker from Blink 182 is drumming on the track. So here it is, Willow Smith and Avril Lavigne. I've been putting work in, healing myself. Still got room to grow. I've been really searching, emotional world.
Starting point is 01:12:17 Honestly, my heart is broke. There it is. Sounds like the theme song to like a Nickelodeon show from the 2000s. Yeah. It's about this, she's a teenager. And she's navigating like high school and friend groups. Do you remember that show? And she's got a colourful iMac.
Starting point is 01:12:35 Do you remember the show? I think there's a swear word coming up here, so I'm just going to turn this down. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Do you remember the show Alex Mack? No. Oh! Nickelodeon show? I don't think it was a Nickelodeon show, but the show Alex Mack? No. Oh! Nickelodeon show? I don't think it was a Nickelodeon show,
Starting point is 01:12:47 but the show was called Alex Mack something and essentially the premise of the show was that she got caught in this like weird chemical plant where these chemicals got spilt on her so then she was able to turn, from then she had powers where she could turn into a puddle. Fantastic show. How good were shows in the 2008? What about Animorphs?
Starting point is 01:13:10 Animorphs was great. Kids could turn into animals? Yeah, that was good too. I had all the toys. What, Animorphs or Alex Mack? Both. Yeah, good. I've got another one of these situations where it's someone asking,
Starting point is 01:13:25 who is the a-hole in the situation? Yeah, love these. Who's more in the wrong? So this one is interesting. It's about a guitar and it says, am I the a-hole for buying a $50,000 guitar for $4,000 and then refusing to sell it back once the owner learnt the real value. Whoa.
Starting point is 01:13:47 Right. So here's the situation. I'll sum it up for you because it's quite long. So this guy that's writing in, he has been playing guitars for a long, long time. He loves guitars. He knows the value of guitars. He's like a guitar collector. What makes a guitar worth 50 grand?
Starting point is 01:14:03 Well, I'll tell you. Anyway, his wife mentioned at work a few times that her husband is a guitar enthusiast, loves guitars, plays guitar. Anyway, there was a guy at her work who said that his dad recently had passed away and that he was selling some of his stuff and in this stuff was a guitar. And he said, would your husband be interested?
Starting point is 01:14:27 Anyway, so they got in touch. The two guys got in touch and they were talking about this guitar. And the guy who was selling it said it's a 1952 Telecaster. And the guy buying it knew for a fact how much that guitar was worth. And it was in mint condition. It had the receipts still from 1952. Mint condition, 1952 Telecaster. He said depending on the buyer, it's worth about $50,000.
Starting point is 01:14:52 He let the guy who was selling it say how much he wanted for it. He said, I've been doing some research myself. I think it's worth about $4,000. I think that's fair. And the guy goes, yep, I think that's fair. Oh, that seems a bit pricey, but yeah, I'll take it. I think that's fair. And the guy goes, yep, I'll buy it. And the guy goes, yep, I think that's fair. Oh, that seems a bit pricey, but yeah, I'll take it. I think that's fair. I will take it.
Starting point is 01:15:07 Anyway, so bought it. Anyway, about a month later, the guy who sold it found out from someone he knows how much that guitar was actually worth. And then he said to this guy's wife at work, he said, I know how much a guitar is worth. I want it back. I want it back. I'll give you the four grand back.
Starting point is 01:15:23 Anyway, she said, look, he really likes the guitar. I don't know if he wants to sell it back to you. Anyway, the two guys got in touch with each other and he goes, no, I don't want to sell it. Yeah. I don't want to sell it back. And the guy's like, you scammed me. This is BS.
Starting point is 01:15:36 You need to sell the guitar back to me. Anyway, so massive fight. He ended up pretty much harassing the wife at work quite a lot about it. Saying, give me back my dad's guitar. Yeah and just wouldn't drop it. Wouldn't drop it anyway the guy ended up getting fired because he wouldn't drop this. It became a big issue
Starting point is 01:15:54 at work. Oh right okay. Anyway the guy hasn't heard from him in a long time. Who is the a-hole? So effectively the guy who bought the guitar has cost him a $50,000 guitar and his job. Yes. Right, okay. But no, that's not fair because
Starting point is 01:16:09 he didn't have to, he's cost himself his job. Yeah, that's another way to look at it. He was the one harassing the wife at work. So we have to look at this, we're not asking who's the a-hole legally here. No. We're asking who's the a-hole morally. Exactly. Is it the guy who bought the $50,000 guitar for $4,000?
Starting point is 01:16:26 When he knew When he knew How much it was worth Or the guy who packed a sad Because he sold a $50,000 guitar for $4,000 When he didn't know And said it was a scam Who is in the wrong?
Starting point is 01:16:38 Who are you more on the side of? Yeah, yeah, yeah 0800 dial ZM Or you can text us on 9696 I want to hear your opinion after the song. Bree and Clint. ZM. Buy five McCafe coffees. Get one free
Starting point is 01:16:52 on the McDonald's app. Filling in for Flesh, Vaughan and Megan. Please don't break the studio. It's ZM's Bree and Clint. Who's the a-hole we want you to decide? Quick summary Bree. Quick summary. A guy was selling a guitar because it was his dad's. The guy who was buying it knew how much the guitar was worth.
Starting point is 01:17:11 It was worth 50K, in his opinion. The guy who was selling it didn't know how much it was worth and said he would take four grand for it. After he found out he wanted it back, the guy won't sell it back. Important detail that you left out. The guy who sold it, his dad dead. I think that's a mitigating factor
Starting point is 01:17:30 here and that's why I think the guy who did the dodgy and bought it for four grand when he knew it was worth fifty grand and he knew it was the guy's dead dad's guitar, I think the guy who bought it is the a-hole. I disagree. Okay, why? I think the guy who sold it is the a-hole. For one, if it meant so I think the guy who sold it is the a-hole.
Starting point is 01:17:46 For one, if it meant so much to him because it was his dead dad's, he wouldn't have sold it, for one. Ooh. Two, you know, he should have done the research. A deal's a deal. But I said don't do this legally. You've got to do it on gut. No, but that's what I said.
Starting point is 01:18:01 He should have done more research and then he wouldn't have been disappointed. He's the one that named the price, said $4,000. So it's not the other guy's fault that he didn't know how much it was worth. We're split. Hannah, who's the a-hole in this situation? The guy who originally sold it. One,
Starting point is 01:18:20 if he did his research like you should if you're selling something that's potentially valuable, you'll look up and you'll find out what it's worth and you'll sell it for that. He didn't, so it's his own lazy fault. If it was that sentimental to him as it was his dead father's, why would you sell it? You know what? That is such a good point you and Bree bring up.
Starting point is 01:18:44 He sold it. He can't claim any sentimental value. No, it's not about the sentimental value. It's like selling your parents' home after they pass away to someone for half a million dollars, and then it goes up in value a year later, and you go back and go, I want this house back. It's sentimental to me. I didn't realise it was going to be worth this much,
Starting point is 01:19:00 and it was mum's house. Yeah. Okay, Hannah, you got a very good point. What's the text machine saying? Are we split on there? It is quite split. A lot of people, someone said if it was purely transactional, like a Trade Me purchase, the guy selling the guitar would have been the a-hole,
Starting point is 01:19:15 but it wasn't. The buyer's partner worked with the guy and he had just lost his dad. Yeah, but he didn't care about selling his stuff. That's the clincher. See you later, guitar. Someone else said, I find this quite interesting. It's a bit like antique shopping, but something at the op shop turns out to be collectible. Seller names the price.
Starting point is 01:19:36 He's the a-hole. I think it's because it's such a big difference in price. It's $46,000. I mean, yeah, it's a pretty big difference. But someone also said, this is my favorite text on this. Someone said, the guy that bought the guitar is not an a-hole. If that was the case, real estate agents and car dealers would all be assholes. Well, some people would argue that, you know.
Starting point is 01:19:59 You shush. Shout out to my real estate friends. You shush. Leave him alone.
