Yeah, there's been a few things going on here in the office.
Starting point is 00:01:02 I think people will be excited that it's not on. I couldn't have asked for a better week to not do a Friday Okie. My vocal cords have just been shot ever since I went to that wedding in Perth singing LMNOP at midnight Fast Times in Tahoe just ripped my throat to shreds and it still hasn't come back.

Starting point is 00:02:18 And Top Twins, they were at the Tauranga A&P show. Yeah. And I would have been all of maybe, oh, maybe nine, ten years old. Yeah, cute. And they managed to get me on film when I was doing a sword dance on stage. I love that.

Starting point is 00:04:38 That was a class performance, my friend. Hey, thank you. I studied all day for that. Call up a birthday banger any time again, all right, Aidan? Do I have to do a real birthday this time? Bree and Clint. Clint, there's been a bit of a discussion that's been happening in my household at the moment.
Starting point is 00:04:57 Yeah. Because I made quite a big purchase. Okay. And there was a, I wouldn't say a disagreement, there was a discussion about it. It's not another novelty vehicle or number plate, is it? Because no one has more novelty vehicles or number plates than Brie Thomas. I have the most.
Starting point is 00:05:21 Yeah, I mean, I think, no, it's not in that realm. I'm talking vanute i'm talking spaceship i'm talking lesh gold number plate you know if you've been listening for a while you know okay so it's not in the automotive realm no no it's um it's a purchase i'm gonna say it's a purchase for winter okay you know it's not a weighted blanket is it no no i went down that that path do you use it no we got rid of it. Right. I felt like I was in prison. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:47 I was in bed. This is making me more anxious. It really did. I was like, I'm in a bed prison right now. Okay, not a weighted blanket? No, but my partner grilled me about the cost of my latest purchase, which was a pair of knee-high leather boots. Oh, you haven't. No, they're nice.
Starting point is 00:06:08 They're nice. I don't understand why knee-high leather boots are so expensive. My wife is the same. They're expensive. Oh my god, hers was so expensive. And they're beautiful boots. I mean, stunning. But the moment that calls for a knee-high leather boot is so few and far
Starting point is 00:06:23 between that the cost per wear on those things is massive. I'm going to wear them all the time. What are you talking about? You're going to wear them to your next dressage event? To my next snow fight? No, you wouldn't because you won't want to get them wet. Yeah, true. You won't.
Starting point is 00:06:38 Yeah, what if I need to do some horse riding or something? Anyway, my biggest point within the discussion was that they're not a crazy purchase. They're an investment for my future. Yeah, you'll have those boots forever. Exactly. It's like a leather jacket or it's like a really nice long winter coat. How much? You tell me how much your wife's wear and I'll tell you how much mine were. I have no idea how much my wife's wear.
Starting point is 00:07:09 Also, my wife's not on trial here. My wife didn't bring her boots to the conversation. Were they north of $300? Were they north of $400? No. Were they north of $500? No, no, no. No, no, no, no. Don't get too crazy. They were $300. $380? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:07:30 $380. No, no, no. That's fine as long as you wear them. And when did you get them? Recently. How long ago? A little while ago. How long have you had those boots?
Starting point is 00:07:41 Okay, a little while. I pulled them out of the cupboard, okay? I haven't worn them before. I've never seen you wear the boots. I've never seen you wear those boots. They're an investment. They're not an outrageous purchase.
Starting point is 00:07:55 They're not a silly purchase. They're an investment for my future. You've fallen into the knee-high boot trap. And better women than you have, so don't feel bad. Yeah, I fell into the trap. But I'm going to wear them heaps this winter. I'm going to wear the crap out of them. Anyway, I love the idea and I
Starting point is 00:08:12 truly believe in this that you can justify any purchase if you call it, like it's an investment. It's not just a very expensive purchase. I feel like that sentence is twofold. It's an investment. I'll have this forever. It's an just a very expensive purchase. I feel like that sentence is twofold. It's an investment. I'll have this forever.
Starting point is 00:08:26 It's an investment. I'll have them and wear them forever. I'll get so much use out of this. It's an investment. I will probably not even outlive the life of these boots. That's how much of an investment they are. Oh, 800 dials at M or you can text to 9696. Just like Bree's knee-high boots.
Starting point is 00:08:44 You didn't even bring them in for me to see for this conversation. That's how much you don't even want to wear the boots. No, they're expensive. I don't want to get them dirty or scuff them. What did you justify as an investment? Yeah, call us up, call us up and then sell it to us as an investment purchase. It's not a
Starting point is 00:09:00 outrageous purchase. It's an investment. 0800 dials at M or you can text us on 9696. We're going to be a very supportive group here this afternoon. Bree and Clint. Clint, I am feeling the love. I am feeling the support for my latest extravagant, I mean, investment. Investment purchase.
Starting point is 00:09:21 My investment purchase. A pair of knee-high boots, leather boots. Yes. Which you told us were what? How much did you admit to? $380. $380. My investment purchase. A pair of knee-high boots, leather boots. Yes. Which you told us were, what, how much did you admit to? $380. $380. There's a lot of speculation that you can even buy a decent pair of knee-high leather boots for $380. That's just an observation that I've made.
Starting point is 00:09:38 They're on sale. Okay. I'm not going to probe any deeper. I'm just going to say. Let's just move on. I just don't want to lead people listening to this show astray who think they only need to save up $380 to get leather boots
Starting point is 00:09:50 like yours, I just don't want to misrepresent Let's just move on I love this text that came through someone said, sorry, were you talking about knee high leather boots? If so, hell yeah, every girl should have a pair of knockout CFM boots I bought my knee high boots over 20 years ago If so, hell yeah. Every girl should have a pair of knockout CFM boots.
Starting point is 00:10:05 I bought my knee-high boots over 20 years ago. They cost $400. See? Investment. $400 20 years ago. Let's move on. Let's go to the phones. They did say I thrashed them to death.
Starting point is 00:10:19 Total investment. Yeah, it is. It's an investment. It's not an extravagant purchase. Let's see what people are justifying by saying it's an investment. Jackie's here. Hi, Jackie. Hi, Jackie.
Starting point is 00:10:29 Hi, how are you? Good, thanks. Jackie, what's definitely an investment purchase you've made? I think anybody who owns a pair of these would say so. RM Williams. Ah, leather boots. I've got a pair of those too. I've got a pair of those too I've got a pair of those too
Starting point is 00:10:46 Just one You've got a pair and you're complaining about her knee highs For 380 You can't give a pair of RM's For less than 600 bucks But Jackie this is not about me This is about Bree I've seen Clint wear his once
Starting point is 00:11:01 I wore them to that wedding last week I wear them all the time. Jackie, you're spot on, mate. RM Williams boots are an investment. My partner runs a few different pairs. One for the rugby club, one for doing jobs, and then one for, you know, going out to weddings and stuff. As good pair as everyday pair.
Starting point is 00:11:22 Yep, I see where you're coming from. Yeah, totally. It's an investment. Kat's here. Yep, I see where you're coming from. Yeah, totally. It's an investment. Kat's here. Hi, Kat. Hi, Kat. Hey. Tell us, Kat,
Starting point is 00:11:28 what was an investment purchase, not an extravagant purchase? Our investment purchase was a $200 rubbish bin. So, no. Does it turn the rubbish... It has a 10-year... It has a 10-year warranty.
Starting point is 00:11:45 Now, how many rubbish bins have you bought from Kmart in the last five years? Kat, are you trying to sell us one of these rubbish bins? Did you have to pay extra for the warranty? No, it comes printed on the box. What does the rubbish do? Does it turn the rubbish into food? What's it doing? Did you have to keep the box?
Starting point is 00:12:04 You said the warranty's on the box. Do you still have the box for your $200 rubbish bin? You take a picture of your receipt. Kat, we should not be judging. I hear you, and I agree. It's an investment. How much have you spent on Kmart rubbish bins? I know you said that.
Starting point is 00:12:21 You're spot on, Kat. You're spot on, and I totally endorse your purchase. I love how she was on the offensive straight away. No, listen. Okay, listen. Thank you, Kat. We really appreciate it. Someone said, I just bought my dream gold chain,
Starting point is 00:12:37 parted with a lot of money, but it's an investment piece. You will have that forever. My dad, back in the 80s, had saved up every bit of money he had, which was $2,000. So this is back in the 80s. And he gave it to his younger brother who was travelling to Italy, back to their home country. And my dad said, can you buy me a gold chain worth $2,000?
Starting point is 00:13:01 How is your dad? 50 cents? Well, they're Italian. Every Italian has a gold chain. If you're a wog, you would know. And anyway, my dad still has that gold chain today, and I think it's nearly worth $10,000. Whoa.
Starting point is 00:13:17 Yeah, it's like a lot of gold. Have you got dibs on it? Yeah, shotgun. Yeah, shotgun. Let's talk to Kirsty. Kia ora, Kirsty. Hi, Kirsty. Hi, how are you? Yeah, shotgun. Yeah, shotgun. Let's talk to Kirsty. Kia ora, Kirsty. Hi, Kirsty. Hi, how are you? Good, thanks. What was
Starting point is 00:13:28 your investment purchase, Kirsty? Okay, so I got told by my lawyer. She was like, you know, you've got a lot going on. You're bringing the lawyer into it already. My lawyer came in on this and she was like, you need to buy yourself a little dog.
Starting point is 00:13:44 It's really going to help keep your mind off things. So I went and bought a miniature dachshund. Kirsty, how much was the dog? Well, we sold it to my partner. And I got my kids involved and everything. And she was like, Marcelle, we've saved $500 on the dog. And he was just going,
Starting point is 00:14:04 oh God, we've got too many dogs as it is. Wait, wait, wait. You already had dogs. How many dogs do you have? Oh, yeah, but we don't have, like, a little inside dog. Like, the other dogs are great dogs, but they're all outside dogs. They're not investment dogs, are they? They're just normal dogs.
Starting point is 00:14:19 You know, you need dogs for the outside and dogs for the inside. This one, I told my boss, I'm trying to convince my boss to let me take her to field days as well. And I said, they're like, not about it. They're like, no, because we sell dog food. No, you're not taking a sausage dog to field days, Kirsty. Well, we've got to because we sell dog food. I was like, duh, we need to take her to field days.
Starting point is 00:14:38 Just put the dog in a swan dry and it'll be good to go. No worries. Someone just texted her and said, my latest investment was a thousand dollar Louis Vuitton earrings. How are you passing these off to your partner? This is great. Well, maybe you don't have
Starting point is 00:14:55 one. Maybe you're just free and easy. Someone said, my investment purchase was my husband. I mean, that's a big investment. Last one, Zoe. Hi, Zoe. Hi, Zoe. Hi, guys. Tell us, mean, that's a big, big investment. Last one, Zoe. Hi, Zoe. Hi, Zoe. Hi, guys.
Starting point is 00:15:08 Tell us, Zoe. It's a safe space. I'm a health investment. What? Okay, this is going to be good. Okay. This is going to be good. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:16 I went on one fun run that my friend had to organise for work. I hate exercise. I'd never experienced endorphins. And then 30 minutes after the run, I found myself in Combe. I bought $300 running shoes, Lululemon luggings, Lululemon jumper, and to top it all off, a brand new Apple Watch. Oh, my God. So you went all out on the health purchases.
Starting point is 00:15:41 And since then, how many runs have you been on? Oh, let's not talk about it. I've been busy. Still brewing. The Apple Watch hasn't been that busy, has it? It has not. Let's not talk about it. Zoe, you are the definition of all the gear, no idea.
Starting point is 00:16:00 Absolutely. At least you look good, though. Your secret is safe with us, my friend. Thanks, mate. Are you sure you want to do this? There's no going back after this. Well. So we've had a bit of an issue where our production engineer, Sam,
Starting point is 00:16:18 who's incredible and makes Friday Oki for us every week. He has been away sick with sick kids all week, so we haven't been able to make a Friday-oke. But then it's so hard because I feel like people are disappointed because, you know, it is a bit of a laugh on a Friday. So to make it up to them, we've decided to pick our worst Friday-okes of all time. Is that inappropriate?
Starting point is 00:16:40 Is that an appropriate... Is that a good trade-off? Is that a good trade-off? I think it's fine. Can you play the Friday Oki Open up Yeah I can play the Friday Oki Hang on alright
Starting point is 00:16:49 Ladies and gentlemen Rian Clint's Friday Oki We do apologise That there isn't a new one this week But you know this is just as good. We've never done this before, can I say. We've never gone back into the archives...
Starting point is 00:17:11 No. ..and played old Friday Okies. Some of these you might not have even heard. I've picked mine. Do you want me to go first for you? You go first. OK, I've picked mine for you. I feel like I know what...
Starting point is 00:17:23 So let me just... A bit of mine for you. I feel like I know what I'm... So let me just a bit of background for you. This was the second Friday Oki ever. Oh no. That we did. And it's one of my... No, does this still exist? And it's one of my personal
Starting point is 00:17:37 favourites from Clint. Oh, it's hot and cold, isn't it? It's Katy Perry. Hot and cold. And here he is, Clinton Roberts. Find Breeze Driver's license and find it right now. Find her. Oh, I don't think this will ever get replayed.
Starting point is 00:17:55 You change your mind like a girl changes clothes. Yeah, you pee a mess like a bitch, I would know. And you overthink, always speak cryptically. Here comes the best part. I should know that you're no good for me. Cause you're hot, then you're cold. You're yes, then you're no. You're in, then you're out. Oh my god want to stay? No! But you don't really want to get out! Oh my God, that was such a good
Starting point is 00:18:50 pick from me. I feel like I like to think that I've come a long way since then. There's the odd stumble. Oh, my God. My mouth hurts from smiling so much. Someone on the text machine said, ha, ha, ha, this was an excellent choice, Brie.
Starting point is 00:19:14 Claudia, you better have found Brie's driver's licence. I couldn't find it. I don't want to let you down. No. I can't find it. She's deleted it. She's deleted it. She's deleted it. I don deleted it. She's deleted it.
Starting point is 00:19:25 I don't know how to delete things, okay? There's so many other ones in here, but I just can't find that one. Oh, God, that was so good. I'm out of time. I'm just going to have to go with one that I think. I'm picking this based on how bad the hook was. I'm so glad that my driver's license one has gone missing. Suspicious.
Starting point is 00:19:45 To have to relive that would be the worst. This is not a real Friday Okie this week. It's an Archives Friday Okie. We're looking back at our greatest... No, not greatest. Our greatest fails. Greatest acts. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:20:00 I'm going to go with... You've got to make it good because my choice was a ripper. I'm going to go with You've got to make it good because my choice was a ripper. I'm going to go with Breeze Harry Styles. Is this bad? I don't know. I'm under pressure. This wasn't that bad. Golden, golden, golden
Starting point is 00:20:24 As I open my eyes. Hold it, focus, hope and take me back to the light. I know you were way too bright for me. I'm hopeless, broken, so you waved for me in the sky. Brown's my skin, just right. You're so golden. Yeah, yeah, yeah, all right, it was fine. A couple of flat notes, a couple of bad notes, but you're...
Starting point is 00:21:11 I wasn't too embarrassed by that one. Yeah, I know, okay? That was a shocking choice from you. There's so many bad ones to pick from too. What do you reckon out of your head is your worst one? I mean, the ones that I know scared people were definitely Dance Monkey, Tones and I. Yeah, weirdly that one's not available either.
Starting point is 00:21:37 Billie Eilish, Bad Guy scared a lot of people too. Which I know that they're still in the system because we played them not that long ago. Yeah, right. Yeah. Yeah, the bad guy Billy Eilish was one of my worst by a long way. All right, well, nice to look back, eh? I had fun.
Starting point is 00:22:01 It's good to see how far you've come. I had a great time. I went and said,Mayo Bree Wins. Bree and Clint. Would I have been allowed to play the Jessie J domino clip? Would that have counted? No, that's not fair because that was live. I know.
Starting point is 00:22:19 It was live. I just feel like I missed an opportunity. Yeah. I think you really stuffed up. I think you really missed it. Well, all we can hope is. If you had another shot, what would you play? I would do, if I had time,
Starting point is 00:22:34 I would do everything I could to find driver's license. I would go into the hard drives and the archives and everything. I can remember my confidence really taking a real bad hit when we played that one out. Yeah. And people were crying with laughter. It was that bad. But I thought there's enough distance between it now
Starting point is 00:22:54 that you could laugh about it too. Oh, I was laughing, but it also, I gave myself the ick. You know where it is? It is online. Is it? In a video. Right. And our reactions as it's playing out, if you remember. Claudia, you know what you need to do, okay?
Starting point is 00:23:12 Hey, like, I don't know if you've heard, guys, but I'm training for a big charity event. It's coming, it's actually getting quite close now. It's coming up very quickly. When is it? It's on the 27th of May, so it's not this Saturday, but next Saturday. Right, and you're walking 50
Starting point is 00:23:27 kilometres. Attempting to walk 50 kilometres. You need to drop the attempting. I'm walking 50 kilometres with Dame Susan Devoy, and it's all for this amazing... Sorry, go on. It's all for this amazing charity called Sweet Louise, and they look after...
Starting point is 00:23:44 It's a small charity, and they look after, it's a small charity and they look after women and their families who have incurable breast cancer. Yeah. And they do this thing in May where it's 50K in May and anyone can raise money. You're meant to do it across the whole month. Well, you are, but you can also do it in one day
Starting point is 00:23:59 and we're trying to raise as much awareness and noise. So I've been going on heaps and heaps of walks lately around my neighbourhood to train for it. Yeah. And the training's not going well. I mean, I'm trying to walk at least like 6 to 7 k's a day. But like on the weekends, I try and do 10 to 15 a day. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:21 But. You're not following a plan though. I mean, who needs a plan though? Like, but anyone I ever know who's trained for a marathon, they like, you build in waves and there's like this thing that they do. What? Marathon? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:34 Marathon. I'm walking. I'm not running. No, I know that. I'm not running. But you were going further than a marathon. Okay. Let's not talk about that.
Starting point is 00:24:41 Okay. All right. It's fine. It's fine. Anyway, the thing that I've realized, because I've been training for over a month now, is that you get to know the people in your area who also- The walkers. The walkers, you know?
Starting point is 00:24:53 I found this in lockdown. Yeah. It's quite nice. It was actually my favourite part of lockdown. Yeah, it's really quite nice because you kind of get to know people and then I've ended up making a few friends and then I've walked with a few people and there's this one woman in my neighbourhood who I absolutely adore and it's because she has dogs
Starting point is 00:25:11 because I'm always walking with my dogs and so when other people have dogs, you stop and you talk to them. But this woman's dogs, I believe she has like four dogs but she's only ever walking two at one time. Right. And one of her dogs is an Irish wolfhound. Okay. Now, if you don't know anything about an Irish wolfhound,
Starting point is 00:25:32 they're one of the biggest dogs in the dog family. Oh, whoa, that thing's massive. They are humongous. And as a kid, we had an Irish wolfhound crossed with a bullmastiff. So I always talked to her about this dog. But it's one of those dogs when you see it, it doesn't look real. It looks like that dragon from the Never Ending. What is it?
Starting point is 00:25:56 Yeah, Atreyu. Is that the dragon's name? Atreyu. Or was that the horse? What was it called? Never Ending Story? Yeah, Never Ending Story. Kind of looks like that.
Starting point is 00:26:03 It's so big that it doesn't look real. And I was talking to her the other day and I said, how much? Because it's a male. These dogs, when they stand on their hind legs and put their hands up, they're taller than like a fully grown man. 100%. Yeah. They're enormous.
Starting point is 00:26:19 And I said to her, how much does he weigh? Because it's a boy. And she said, he normally fluctuates between 80 and 84 kilos. That dog's as heavy as I am. It's a fully grown man. Like, it's so big. I'm a six foot two man and that's how much I weigh. If you've never seen one of these dogs in real life,
Starting point is 00:26:40 it's just, it's actually amazing. Like, they're just such beautiful animals and they've got the kindest nature. You know what I always think when I see a dog of that size? What? Imagine the poos. Oh, it'd be enormous. Yeah, it'd be like a fully grown man was coming
Starting point is 00:26:53 and doing a big turd on your lawn. Imagine the bags. You'd have to take a full on plastic grocery bag to pick up the poos. Can't get a plastic grocery bag anymore. So imagine all these people that own these Irish Wolfhounds. They would have been devastated. I thought we could ask people because I'm real interested.
Starting point is 00:27:09 There will be people listening that have an Irish Wolfhound. Or a Leon Berger. Or maybe a, what's Beethoven? Burmese Mountain Dog? No, what is he? No, no. What's Beethoven? Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:27:23 He's a. Beethoven the dog. He's a. Come No. What is he? No. No. What's Beethoven? Oh, my God. He's a... Beethoven the dog. He's a... Come on. What is he? Ross used to have one. Saint Bernard. Saint Bernard.
Starting point is 00:27:35 Saint Bernard. A Great Dane. Yeah. I want to know... Or just a really fat Labrador. Yeah, or a really fat Labrador. How heavy and how big is your dog? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:47 Do you have a gigantic dog? Now's the time to flex your stats on us. Yes. 0800 dial ZM or you can text to 9696 and we'll find out how heavy your dog is on the show. How heavy's your dog? How heavy's your dog? How heavy's your dog? This is going to be horrible.
Starting point is 00:28:06 We'll get you on next. Where did you find that? No! I got my driver's license last week. Just like we always talked about. Because you were so excited for me. To finally drive up to your house. But today I drove through the suburbs. No, I just won! Oh, God!
Starting point is 00:28:27 No, I just won! Oh, God! So slut! She's so much older than me She's everything I'm insecure about Today I drove through the suburbs Cause how could I ever love someone else Oh my god, so much worse than I remember And I know we weren't perfect But I never felt this way for no one. And I just can't imagine how you could be so okay now that I'm gone.
Starting point is 00:29:16 Trust it. Guess you didn't mean what you wrote in the song about me. Cause you said forever, now I drive alone past your street. Tick tock, get in, bitches. I'm so sweaty. I'm sorry. I'm sorry and I love you. I hate you so much.
Starting point is 00:29:43 Don't look me in the eyes. It's so much worse than I remember. It's so much. Don't look me in the eyes. It's so much worse than I remember. So bad. We'd still love to know however your dog is. Bree and Clint. But first, we want to know, what did you think of Bree's driver's license song? It was so much worse than I remember.
Starting point is 00:30:01 Just kidding. We're just going to jam that one in there. Yeah, we just, let's move on. Okay, let's move on. We're talking about... If our radio coach is listening, we understand that was a bit all over the place, but the opportunity presented itself and I could not not take it. Yeah, no, I'm so glad that
Starting point is 00:30:17 you and the producers took the opportunity. We colluded against you. Yeah, no, it was great. I really enjoyed it for a Friday. We're talking against you. Yeah, no, it was great. I really enjoyed it for a Friday. We're talking about this dog in my neighbourhood who is very large. It's
Starting point is 00:30:33 an Irish Wolfhound, about 80 to 85 kilos. When Bree saw it, she went, that's a huge bitch! Well, it's male. Oh, is it? Yeah, it's a male dog. What do you call a male dog? I don't know. Oh, that's a good question. We've been so focused on bitches.
Starting point is 00:30:49 Yeah, it's a great question. We never even thought. Claudia's going to check it for us. Claudia, what do you call a male dog? This article says a male dog is called a dog. Sexism. Sexism extends to dogs. Who would have thought?
Starting point is 00:31:02 So we've asked you guys, do you have a really big dog? I've got a big-ass dog. And how big? Let's talk to Greg first. Kia ora, Greg. G'day, Greg. How are you going? Good, thanks, Greg.
Starting point is 00:31:12 I saw a doggy running, Greg. It was a while ago, back when I was a bit younger, and it was a family dog. We had an English master called Winston. Called what? Called what, did you say, Greg? Winston. Oh, that's such a cute name.
Starting point is 00:31:26 They've got really big heads, don't they? They do. They have ginormous heads and big jowls. And he was actually named from my father after Winston Churchill because of the big jowls he's got. He looks like Winston Churchill. I know these dogs. I feel like they have been in lots of cartoons or movies or something.
Starting point is 00:31:44 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. That's what my childhood dog was crossed with. Okay, let's find out. Bull Mastiff cross wolfhound. Greg, with the big English Mastiff, how big are we talking? He topped out at 98 kilos. Jeez Louise! And when he got to 98, were you guys like, just a little bit more?
Starting point is 00:32:05 Just a little bit more. Come on, just two more kilos. He said around 94, 96, but then when he was a bit unhealthy, he got to 98. Crack the tongue. Crack the tongue. His old man actually got to 104. Oh, yeah, okay. Wow.
Starting point is 00:32:19 Can I ask, Greg, was he fixed? Was he spayed? Yeah, he was. Oh, because I was just wondering how big was his ball sack? It would have been The testes would be the extra two kilos you were missing. Would have been a couple of soccer
Starting point is 00:32:33 balls on the back of that dog. There was a kilo on each ball he was eating. He could have made a thousand puppies, that guy. Beautiful. Okay, thank you, Greg. Thank you for sharing. Let's go to Tara who's called up.
Starting point is 00:32:47 Hi, Tara. Hi, Tara. Hi, how are you? Good, thanks. You had a big dog. It was a great day, wasn't it? Yeah, and he was very famous around Mount Eden and then we moved to Remuera and people would stop.
Starting point is 00:33:00 We'd have to take sort of an extra 20 minutes every time we went for a walk. Your dog was so impressive impressive it would stop traffic. It would. Well, we actually had three nose to tails with people staring at the dog and people crashing into the back of each other. I thought you were talking about dogs going nose to tail, but you're talking about cars.
Starting point is 00:33:19 How tall was this dog? When he was standing on all fours, like not up on his hind legs, how tall? Like seven foot. When you're up on his hind legs. When he was standing on all fours, like not up on his hind legs, how tall? Like seven foot, when you're up on his hind legs. Oh, seven foot when he was up on his back legs. Wow. Yeah, yeah, yeah. What was his name, Tara? Kobe Bryant.
Starting point is 00:33:33 Actually, no, Tane, as in Tane Mahuta. Tane Mahuta. Oh, nice. God of the forest, yeah. Biggest tree in the forest. Biggest tree in the forest. All right, Tara, how big was your great dame? We thought he was pretty big
Starting point is 00:33:48 until we heard the last caller but he was a good 94 kgs. Wow! Don't be discouraged Tara, you still had a 94 kilo dog. I don't want you to leave here thinking that you had some kind of handbag dog. No, and I'll tell you what when he did die just last year and then we
Starting point is 00:34:03 didn't think he ate a lot and then we realised how many leftovers we actually had in the family. We realised that there was a reason he was 94 kg. Because they say big dogs don't live very long. How long did Tane live for? He actually did really well. He was
Starting point is 00:34:20 nearly 10 when he died. We were excited because our previous program was only 7 and a half. That's incredible, can I say, Tara. The care you must have given that dog. They don't live till they're 10. That's incredible. Well, apparently they were bred for hunting,
Starting point is 00:34:34 but that was well and truly bred out by the time we got Tara. Yeah, he's a big softie. Can I ask, Tara, because I always hear, because my friend has a great Dane, and she always says that they're actually amazing house dogs. Oh, yeah. They're lazy, so they don't actually. So when you walk, you're actually kind of dragging them along.
Starting point is 00:34:55 They don't walk fast. That's what I've always said. If I had a nice little townhouse, what I would want would be a 7-foot, 94-kilo dog. People do. That's perfect for that space. People do. Tara, have you got another one?
Starting point is 00:35:08 Are you going to get another one? No, no. I do get numerous hosts of different dogs from my daughter, which happen to be like sausage dogs and pugs and stuff. So I can see us going from one extreme to the other, but I can't see my husband falling for that one. He's like, I would drop kick that dog. Fair enough.
Starting point is 00:35:29 Thanks, Tara. That's such a good story. There you go. Big dogs, everybody. Big dogs. Bree and Clint. Hey, how good is it when you get on a flight and you know that there's no one sitting next to you
Starting point is 00:35:38 and you just have that seat beside you? It is one of those little joys in life. It's like an upgrade, isn't it? Yeah, absolutely it's an upgrade. Especially if you're flying long haul. Yeah. Qantas have announced that they'll let you pay a little bit extra to make sure that the seat beside you is definitely empty
Starting point is 00:35:53 on your flight, which is great for well, it's especially good for introverts, you know? People who are so scared of having to interact with another person in the real world, You know? The people who put their AirPods in the second that they sit down. No, they sit down with their AirPods in,
Starting point is 00:36:12 just so they can avoid ever having to say hello to anybody. Before even getting on the plane, they have their AirPods in. It's specifically on... That's you, by the way. I've seen you on flights. What? We've travelled quite a lot. Clint, always, before you get on the plane, you will always have your earbuds in.
Starting point is 00:36:26 Do I? Yeah. Do you know that about yourself? I haven't noticed about myself. And a lot of the time, especially if it's in the colder months, you'll have this massive puffer jacket on and then you'll have your hood on.
Starting point is 00:36:38 Oh, that's because I go to sleep. As soon as I sit down, it's because I go to sleep the second I get up. Yeah, it's like being in a sleeper. Anyway, you're going to be able to pay between $30 and $60 to guarantee that there's no one in a seat next to you. It's only on domestic routes, which means you probably won't get it in New Zealand yet.
Starting point is 00:36:52 But a great thing for Air New Zealand to do, possibly. Yeah, I think it's a great option, especially, you know, if the plane isn't full. That's what it is. So you're not going to be able to do it until 48 hours before the flight. Yeah, so if the plane's not full full but they can make a bit of extra money and people can get, you know, what they want with an extra seat next to them. How gutted would you be though?
Starting point is 00:37:12 So you, you've got the notification 48 hours before, you've got a window seat, you're like, oh yeah, I can pay my 60 bucks, get the seat next to me empty, don't talk to anybody, I can spread out a little bit. You do it and then the person on the third seat across puts all their stuff in the seat that you've paid to have empty. Yeah, what happens? How do you deal with that?
Starting point is 00:37:30 Do you say, I've paid for that seat? Excuse me, I paid for that empty seat. I paid for that seat. I want to put my legs there. You technically could. Yeah, well, you could. But awkward. You've paid for that seat so you don't have to talk to anybody.
Starting point is 00:37:43 Someone texted her and said Air New Zealand do offer this. Do they? They said they do offer this. They have for ages. Oh. Okay. Suck on that, Qantas. Just kidding, Qantas.
Starting point is 00:37:54 Love you. I've never, I never knew that because that's something that I, if I wanted to go to sleep on a flight. Yeah. Yeah. That's a great upgrade. Is it $30 or is it $60? It's between $30 and $60. So it sleep on a flight. Yeah. Yeah. That's a great upgrade. Is it $30 or is it $60? It's between $30 and $60.
Starting point is 00:38:08 So it depends on the flight. I think the more expensive the flight or whatever it is, or maybe the fewer seats there are. Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, gotcha. There you go. There's some uninformed aviation news from New Zealand's leading aviation news-based radio show.
Starting point is 00:38:22 Do your research. Someone said Air New Zealand do this for flights to Australia. International. Oh, my God. Do your research. Someone said Air New Zealand do this for flights to Australia. International. Oh my God, do your research, Clinton. Brianne Clint. 2023, we need to start talking about getting rid of extra remotes in the living room.
Starting point is 00:38:38 Yeah, I told you I had four before. Yeah, I'm disgusted by that. Yeah, I spent quite a lot of money on a really fancy universal remote to try and run everything out of the same way. Did it work? Yeah, it did for a little bit. But then I tried to add the heat pump to it as well.
Starting point is 00:38:53 And the whole thing just, oh my God, it was an absolute disaster. The universal remote was like $450. Yeah, geez, that's expensive. I would have been better just to save my money and upgrade my TV. Yeah. Eventually. Yeah, TVs can do it all these days. We've asked you guys on 0800DIALS at M,
Starting point is 00:39:11 is it you or maybe someone you know that has a lot of remotes in the living room? Glenn's here. Hi, Glenn. G'day, Glenn. How are we doing today? Good, thanks, Glenn. Is it you or someone you know that has a heap of remotes? Well, yeah, somebody, well, kind of including me a few years ago,
Starting point is 00:39:28 yeah, my parents. Okay, yeah, it's always the parents. How many remotes were they running? Well, so it was five EV remotes that were associated with TV. Five? I had a couple of Xbox controllers lined up there as well. What, Glenn, what did all five remotes do? What were their different jobs?
Starting point is 00:39:50 Do you remember? Yeah. So this was back before the widescreen sort of came about. So there was one for the TV. Yeah. And then in the TV cabinet, there was a stereo for bumping up the sound on the TV. Yeah. And then in the TV cabinet there was a stereo for bumping up the sound on the TV.
Starting point is 00:40:08 Yep. And also they had VCR. Oh yeah. Of course. From the early days. A DVD player. Okay.
Starting point is 00:40:18 Yep, this is making sense now, Glenn. Did you have Sky? Yes. Okay, Sky remote, yeah. I think, yep, that's five. And you two Xbox remote.
Starting point is 00:40:30 The Xbox controllers back then wouldn't have even been cordless either. So he would have had this big wire coming across his lounge onto the ground. Can you imagine? By the time you got everything working and on, it'd be bedtime. Lisa's here. Hi, Lisa.
Starting point is 00:40:45 Hi, Lisa. G'day, guys. How you doing? Good. Thanks, Lisa. Tell us, mate, how many remotes? Well, now I've just heard the previous gentleman talking about Xboxes, and I'm sitting there going, oh, no, not those two.
Starting point is 00:41:01 So that tells me I've got three remotes on the coffee table. Yeah. I've got the AC remote on the wall. Yeah. But we actually control the AC unit by an app on our phone. Yeah. Nice. And then we've got the Xbox. But I just wish it would all run off my Alexa.
Starting point is 00:41:14 Yeah. Yeah. Just hook it all up to Alexa. Make her do the work, Lisa. Some people can do that. It's beyond me. Yeah, just like my light bulbs. They'll all run by Alexa.
Starting point is 00:41:23 The thing about these remotes is they were meant to make our life easier. They were meant to be like one click and everything is sorted for you. But the number of buttons on some of them, it's like you need a degree to understand how to work some of these things. I struggle to actually just even get my TV to turn on properly, so I generally look at the kids and go
Starting point is 00:41:40 yeah, not me. Lisa, you'll love this text that someone sent through. They said, my in-laws lost their TV remote, so they downloaded an app to use on their phones. But when I go over to their house, I just couldn't watch TV at all because I don't have the app. That sounds like us. Why is every TV different?
Starting point is 00:42:04 Why is every system different? Why is every system different? Like if you're a house sitting for somebody, you just hope. And it's the same if you're at an Airbnb. Yeah. You just hope that there are instructions on how to work the TV. Airbnbs, I think, are pretty savvy these days. They just make it so it's real basic. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:19 Or else people... They give you as little as possible. Yeah. There's a TV over there. It doesn't get any channels, but use it if you want. I love the Airbnbs when you go there and they've got their Netflix signed in. Oh, and you can just watch it. And I always go into their most recently watched just to see what they're watching
Starting point is 00:42:37 so I can tell what type of people I've hired this Airbnb off. Then go watch some real weird stuff, eh, to mess with the algorithm. I always do. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's so good. Not because do. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Good. Not because you want to watch it or anything. Bree and Clint.
Starting point is 00:42:52 Time is waiting. You only get one second of a song. No hesitating. You only got one second. Oh, one second. Weekly song guessing game where you and I go head to head trying to guess songs as fast as we can. But we don't do it alone. No, we don't.

It's kind of like the catalogue that you see how bad these actually are. I literally said to you before, I was like, you look through the catalogue and you see how bad these actually are. I literally said to you before, I was like, you're playing all the bad ones, where are the good ones?

I can see Luke belly dancing in a crop top and some low-rise jeans to this song on his 16th birthday. Can you breathe? Absolutely. If I know Luke. With his little belly button piercing. I can see myself doing that too.
Starting point is 00:50:06 Yeah. I quite like that song from Beyonce and Sean Paul. It's a really good one. It's good. Wait there, Luke. We're going to do a birthday banger for Julie. Kia ora, Julie. Hi, how are you? Good, thanks. How's your week been out of 10, Julie?

Starting point is 00:52:23 I'm going to go Beyonce, Sean Paul, Baby Boy. Yeah, I think so too. I think Luke's won it. You reckon that's the one? Yeah, Luke and his little crop top. Get out that midriff, Luke. Luke and your little hot pants. Congratulations, you just won Birthday Banger. Awesome.
Starting point is 00:52:35 Cheers, guys. Have an excellent weekend, Luke. Thanks for listening to the Brian Clint Show. See you, mate. Cheers. All good. Here you go. Coming straight out of 2003.
Starting point is 00:52:43 It's your Birthday Banger on ZM. ZM. Bree and Clint, that is the brand new track from Georgia Lions. It's called Monopoly. And what do you know? Look who's in studio right now. It's bloody Georgia Lions. Coincidence.
Starting point is 00:53:21 It's almost like we planned it that way. Amazing. It's about bloody time you came to see us again. Where have you been, bitch? It's been a while. It's been a real hot minute. It's been too long. Thanks for having me. Yeah, well,
Starting point is 00:53:32 you're always welcome here. You know that. Don't say that because then I'll just be knocking on the door. Bye, guys. Just me. I've just got a couple of ideas.
Starting point is 00:53:39 Yoo-hoo. It's Friday. Unannounced. Georgia's looking resplendent in her Pink Shirt Day shirt, by the way, with matching Pink Shirt Day pink lipstick. Thank you. Very cute. And tonight you're playing, I don't know why we say this,
Starting point is 00:53:52 because no one can get tickets to it, it's sold out, but you're performing your launch party at Big Fan, Jo Little's brand new studio. Yes, I'm so, so looking forward to it. It's the first show I've played in New Zealand in a while, not the very first show I've played in New Zealand in a while. Not the very first show I've played in New Zealand. Just clarify that. In a while since coming home from South by
Starting point is 00:54:10 Southwest. So I've been like throwing a lot of brain space and energy and building this set up for South by and then coming home I'm like we have to play a show because we've just like. You have to do the thing. We've got to do the thing. So that's what tonight is about. And it's sold out.
Starting point is 00:54:25 It's sold out. As a Kiwi artist, do you feel the love during Kiwi Music Month? It is May. And does it make a difference? And why is New Zealand Music Month still important to a New Zealand musician? I mean, to be honest,
Starting point is 00:54:40 it should be New Zealand Music Month all year round. And I kind of feel like it is. There's definitely been the last few years a real effort from a lot of different people in terms of just like being really intentional about celebrating New Zealand artists. Like I think it's not like all of a sudden we get to May and we're like, oh, wow, we're just hearing new music from the Kiwis.
Starting point is 00:55:02 Like I don't feel like it's like this wildly, you know. I've appreciated this New Zealand Music Month hearing like a range of New Zealand music acts as well because I think in the past it's been really easy and this is no disrespect to those artists to go, oh yeah, we play Lord in 660. We're on board with New Zealand Music Month. Those guys are amazing,
Starting point is 00:55:21 but they don't need the kind of support that other artists could benefit from during New Zealand Music Month, right? And I think that's a really cool thing about having a specific month where everybody is really intentional of going like, how can we celebrate what our Kiwi artists are doing that maybe haven't had the support that they need. The opportunity. I think you're so right because like being Australian and coming,
Starting point is 00:55:45 I've been here nearly five years now and one of my favourite things that I've got to experience living in this country is how much talent there is in the music industry. And it's so cool to showcase such a wide-ranging talent. There's so many different genres and different things that are coming out of New Zealand and that's my favorite thing. And one of the things, I mean, I created this web series called Intros. Yeah, I've seen it.
Starting point is 00:56:11 Seen it. Yeah, yeah. Thanks, guys. Yeah, you're good. You're really good at interviewing people. Turns out you've got a great personality. Been really pushing that for a while. But, you know, there was this massive gap where when i was first starting out i was like
Starting point is 00:56:25 you know like hustling so hard yeah and not that the hustle still doesn't happen because i still feel like i'm hustling just as hard but you know you're fighting to be heard and there's you know i just felt like in lockdown when we were coming up with intros like there are so many amazing kiwi artists that are going unnoticed or doing really cool stuff that don't necessarily have all the opportunities. Like, wouldn't it be cool to create something where we showcase that? And that's been really awesome. I think it just shows the type of person you are, you know, because you're on the hustle and you're doing everything to be heard
Starting point is 00:56:58 and then you're like, how can I showcase and lift other people up? You know, that's a pretty amazing thing that you had that thought and you're now doing that. So good on you. Talking to Georgia Lyons, she's got brand new music. It's just dropped today. Before you go, what is the number one thing that somebody can do to support their favourite New Zealand music act?
Starting point is 00:57:19 One thing. Is it to download their Spotify music? Is it to buy their merch? Is it to show up to their gigs? Buy merch is massive. Buy merch. Buy merch, show up to gigs. Those things are massive.
Starting point is 00:57:30 Obviously, playing and streaming songs is huge, but in terms of the financial support that artists get from Spotify, it's minimal. It's very minimal. It is. So buying merch, it actually is amazing because... Helps you guys eat. It does. And goes straight to your pocket. Helps me pay my power bill.
Starting point is 00:57:50 That's Georgia Lyons. You won't be able to make it to her launch gig tonight, but you can go listen to her brand new song, Monopoly. Thanks, Georgia! Thanks, New England. Time for the later. From iHeartRadio. This is the latest.
Starting point is 00:58:04 Live from LA with Dean McCarthy. Dean's here. Miley Cyrus has talked about this song. Time for the latest. Dean's here. Miley Cyrus has talked about this song, which we all assume and interpret to be about her ex, Liam Hemsworth. Well, there were so many Easter eggs in there about it. So many references. Yeah. But she's talked about whether it is or isn't Dean. Yeah, she's talked about it.
Starting point is 00:58:24 She said that the song is not about him at all. She said she'd be a lyrical genius if she was. But she actually said there was one line that she changed in the song. So, you know, when she says, but I can love me better than you can, she actually just, the song was, but I can't. She's like, I can buy myself flowers right when I'm in the sand, but I can't love me better than you can. That was her original lyric. And then she was like, wait a second. Wait up. Yes, I can't. She's like, I can buy myself flowers, write my name in the sand, but I can't love me better than you can. That was her original lyric.
Starting point is 00:58:46 And then she was like, wait a second. Wait up. Yes, I can. Yes, I can. Isn't that incredible? So good. I actually heard, though, and she's obviously, like,
Starting point is 00:58:56 I believe her that the song is not about Liam. But I heard, and this might just be a hideous rumor, so you can just... But she shot the music video. You know the house she shot it in? Yeah. I heard that that house had significance,
Starting point is 00:59:12 that I heard that that was where, like... Yeah, it was the house that Liam cheated on her in. Yeah. Yeah, apparently. Yeah, so you can tell me that it's not about Liam, the song, All You Want, but there's too many references in there for it not to be. Isn't it incredible, though, that just changing that one word
Starting point is 00:59:28 from can to can't... Changes the whole thing. Changes the whole song. It takes it from being a sad breakup song to being a total song of self-empowerment. Yeah. Right? Really does.
Starting point is 00:59:38 It's amazing. Just changing that one word. One word. Yeah. I like it. I'm glad she changed it. Yeah. And it's definitely about Liam Hemsworth.
Starting point is 00:59:46 That's the latest live out of Los Angeles with our Hollywood correspondent, Dean McCarthy. Bree and Clint. We love a good on-air mistake on this show, whether it be live TV, live radio, our own mistakes we also love. We love on-air mistakes so much we do them. Yes, we do them just for a bit of fun. I saw this story and it's doing the rounds in Australia at the
Starting point is 01:00:07 moment and it's about a radio station in Aussie called Triple J. Yeah. You might know Triple J from their Top 100. Hottest 100. Hottest 100. Yeah. Sorry, where they do the Hottest 100. They do it once a year. They're the authority on cool music. Yes, they are. They've been in the news this week because they suffered an embarrassing on-ear blunder. Okay, talk to me about it. So I don't know the exact details, but what I'm thinking has happened is,
Starting point is 01:00:39 like us in the studio here, we take over from the Days and Ounces of Georgia and she's in the other studio. So when we're taking over, we have to take control of – Yeah, there's two studios. There's two studios. So she'll be on air in her studio and then we have to take control with our desk in here when we take over. So I think what's happened is that's the moment that this took place
Starting point is 01:01:05 where they were doing the changeover and one girl was on air and then she thought she's let the other guy take over. She thought her studio had been taken off air. Exactly. And was no longer live and broadcast. Exactly. Yeah, okay. What actually happened was she was still live on air and um her mic was
Starting point is 01:01:28 live and this took place that's the news triple j followed by silence and more silence until can anyone hear me where are you And I'm so sorry And a few seconds after that Oh, f*** I can't hear you though Right, okay So it's a Blink-182 performance Followed by some F-words
Starting point is 01:01:55 Yeah It's not her fault It's not her fault It's not her fault Someone asked me to take the studio And do you want to hear from the guy That was meant to take over That thought he was broadcasting want to hear from the guy that was meant to take over that thought he was broadcasting?
Starting point is 01:02:07 Yeah, what's he got to say for himself? This is what he had to say. Nothing happened, nothing to see here, people. I, Joe Kahn, walked into the wrong studio to start the show and have been broadcasting to nobody. Could have been worse, Joe Kahn. You could have done a Blink-182 impersonation and then said some F-words.
Starting point is 01:02:23 Where are you? No, it's a good time. We applaud that here at Sydney. Well done, guys. Well done, Triple J. We love it. Makes us feel better about ourselves. It does, eh?
Starting point is 01:02:36 Bree and Clint. Yeah. The weekend. Is here. Bitch. Let's party. What are you doing to party tonight? I'm going to go home, crack a bottle of red wine, make some pizzas and sit on the couch.
Starting point is 01:02:56 Nice. What are you doing to party? I'm going to go home and sit down at my new podcasting desk that I just built for myself. Nice. And do some tests to see if it works. Oh, fun. Because I have no idea. Because I launched a podcast this week and I have no idea how to record a podcast from my house. Oh, you figure that
Starting point is 01:03:15 all out later. That's what I said to them. They're like, do you know how to do a podcast? And I was like, we'll figure that out. Figure it out later. Just launch all the marketing. Just go to market with it and we'll figure out how to do the podcast later. Not a big deal. That's the last thing we have to worry about. Debs. Not a big deal at all. TV-wise, I'll be watching Barry on Neon, which is the best show that no one is talking about.
Starting point is 01:03:33 It got a big rap in... I think it was on The Herald today. The Herald, yes. It's called the best TV show no one is watching. I might give it a watch. Very good. Bill Hader from Saturday Night Live. Yep.
Starting point is 01:03:44 And that weird Jennifer Garner one where her husband goes missing. Yes, I'm watching that too. The last thing he said to me? Yeah, on... On Apple TV. Apple TV. Apple TV. Yep.
Starting point is 01:03:56 Yeah, we're those annoying people who have subscriptions outside of our Netflix subscription. Do you ever, like, think that at some point you're going to reassess what ones you should keep and what ones you shouldn't? I think that all the time. Yeah. And then I don't do anything about it. You know the one thing I do love about Netflix? Because I like all of them.
Starting point is 01:04:16 How expensive it is now? Yeah, it's very expensive. I like all the platforms for different reasons. Yeah. The thing I like about Netflix is how fast it is when you click on it. Yeah. Yeah, I'd go. Like Amazon Prime.
Starting point is 01:04:28 Amazon Prime, I can make my entire dinner before it opens and I'm able to watch something. I'd forego a bit of fastness, though, for a $5 a month. Yeah, I mean, you've got a good point. Can I just say, TVNZ Plus. Very good. Great platform. Very good. So many good things. TVNZ Plus. Very good. Great platform. Very good.
Starting point is 01:04:46 So many good things. And it's free. There's my hot tip. It's ours. It's owned by us. It's got Erin Brockovich on it. It's got the new, who's that guy that dated Kim Kardashian? Pete Davidson show on it.
