Literally. I'm not joking. I found my limit a few years ago because mine got up to three or four and I realized it's too much. So I'm two. And if I have the third, I'm a wreck. Haven't you had three today? No, two.

Two today. And that one that I sent the interns to get for me was particularly milky. Listen to you. The one I sent the interns off to get for me. The one I asked politely after you encouraged me to do it. No, you took it upon yourself, and then you didn't even give them any money you said you guys can pay for it i'll get you later you're so full of shit you're so full of shit hey believe i am not getting full night's sleep at the moment so i just felt how

much sleep do you get um and uh i think it's about seven hours across the night but it's broken so you're up three or four times during the night. And the only reason you can get that at the moment is by going to bed real early. He's got to do it. Which isn't fun. But it's alright. We'll get there. Anyway, so I just felt the need for a coffee. Mate, it was more for you. Otherwise you'd have a...

She's from the Tron and she ripped her webbing in her foot five times. Ouch! What? Welcome to the show, Olivia. Five times? How? Um, good question. The first time, I don't even know. What do you mean you're webbing? Is that a stupid question?

The bit between your toes that holds your toes together. You ripped it five times. Have you got webbed feet? Like, are they particularly webbed? No. Are you wearing weird, sharp jandals? I honestly have no idea.

Right, okay. Poor thing. That's horrible. We can't help you with that, but we can meet your opponent today. He's 32. He's from Bulls, and he's back for redemption. It means he's lost before. Welcome to the show, our tradie, Luke.

G'day, Luke. Welcome back. Hey, how are you? Good, thank you. Second time's a charm. Yeah, how's things in Bulls? You know, a little bit of rain, a little bit of sunshine. You sound like the most Bulls guy I've ever heard.

You've got a real, like, Bulls tone of voice to you. I don't know. Luke, he's no BS, is he? No bull. All right, guys, what are the rules? You guys just need to buzz in with Trady, Luke, or Lady Olivia. First to three correct answers wins $50 cash. All right, guys, here comes question number one.

Somebody Stop Me is a movie quote from what Jim Carrey movie? I'll give you a bit of a hint. Somebody stop me. Yes, Luke. Is it The Mask? It is The Mask. One point to the tradies. Question number two.

Who sings this song? Thank you. Yes, Olivia, you're in. Rihanna. That is correct. It is RiRi. It's one apiece. Nice work.

Question number three. What do you call a baby whale? Trady. Yes, Luke. Is it a calf? It is a calf. Going well, guys. This is good.

I'm glad you got that one being from Bulls. Luke, nice work. All right, two to the tradies, one to the ladies. Question number four. Hang on, hang on, hang on. Let's add a bit of pressure to this. Okay. Luke, who's back for redemption, you're at match point here, mate.

You can win it, okay? You can just give it to me. No, you need to win it. No, that's not how it works. You need to show us you've returned a true champion and take the title home to Bulls, okay? We'll go 50-50 and you just give it to me. Olivia, you've got to buzz in to stop him on this one, okay?

Question number four. Name one other member from Destiny's Child other than Beyonce. Trotty. Luke, for the win. Charlie. Charlie. That was such a stab in the dark. I thought you had it, Luke.

I did. I thought you had it. Olivia, do you want to guess? I can't even think off the top of my head. She's only 22. She's too young for Destiny's Child. Yeah, it's awkward because both members are here. I was thinking of Charlie's Angels for some reason.

Charlie's Angels. Charlie wasn't one of the Angels either. No, Luke, it's because Destiny's Child did... They wanted to be. They did Independent Woman for Charlie's Angels. Yeah, that's what got Luke confused. We would have accepted Kelly Rowland or Michelle Williams, and there's a few others that we would have accepted

who were in the band early. All right, still two to the tradies, one to the ladies. Question number five. Match point. We're still on, Luke. New Zealand's latest COVID case visited Bunnings Warehouse over the weekend. Name a tool you might purchase from Bunnings. Lady.

Yes, Olivia. Oh, Olivia. Skill source. Yes. Nailed it. Luke, that was yours for the taking, man. I know. Luke, if you stuff it up from here on your redemption round.

All right, guys. It's all tied up. This is for the win. Question number six. Ski season is on the way. Name a mountain in New Zealand. Oh, Luke. Ruapehu.

Ruapehu. He's done it. What? Disappoint bulls. That's only taken me a few months. Oh, he's a working black man. Disappointballs. It's only taken me a few months. Ruapehu is your local ski field too, isn't it, Luke? So well done, mate.

You nailed that. It is. There we go. 50 bucks coming your way and the title of redemption. It should be doubled for the redemption, you know. No, you're lucky it's not 25, mate. I wonder if anyone right now listening, sitting in the car together, are having a couple's fight about whether or not

they should move in together. Ooh. If you guys are... This is awkward now. If you guys are... It's like an icebreaker. Yeah. This is a good conversation to start it.

There's a story. Or do you reckon there's some people in the car listening right now, couples, who have been avoiding the conversation about moving in together. You know who you are. And now we're talking about it and you guys are trying not to talk about it. Now you've got a weird look on your face. Real awkward look. Quick, go and have a listen to the gold.

See what they're talking about over there. Well, this story might help because there's a married couple who's making news over in the UK because they've been together for 20 years and they've never lived together. What? They're married. They've got a son together, but they've never lived together. They've never lived together. Until now.

Right. Recently, because I think it was due to their 12-year-old son, they couldn't find a school that was close enough because they lived in different suburbs. Right. And so they decided maybe now is the time that we should move in together after 20 years together. Risky, really risky. Well, it is because they said the reason that they've never lived together

is they thought it would ruin their relationship. They've always had a perfect relationship. They said they don't fight, they don't argue, they miss each other. And it works for them. It makes it work. Absence makes the heart grow fonder. Yeah. Plus, if you're a guy, you don't have to have so many cushions on your bed.

Well, true. They said it's their secret to a lasting marriage. But they're trying something new I reckon this is the end of their relationship Don't say that And the worst bit is they've done it for their son If the son's listening, mummy and daddy are about to get divorced No, don't say that, that's horrible

But they love you very much And just like you used to have two houses, now you'll have two Christmases Stop, stop it They said that even though they have moved in together, they said it's going really well so far because they're still trying to have their separate things. They don't sleep in

the same room. Oh, wow. Okay. So many questions. Like, you're a married couple who have a child together. What about meal times? Like, do you have dinner together as a family every night? Yeah, good question. And then one of you goes back to your own house? I think it's an interesting concept

because, I mean, who came up with the idea that you have to live together, sleep in the same bed? Like, who came up with that idea? Well, it's just efficient, isn't it? Well, it is. I'm not saying it's wrong. I'm not saying that's not a very romantic way to put it either but to do it for efficiency's sake. It's efficient.

Yeah, yeah. It saves you money. Well, you learn to rely on each other. Like you boost each other up. And then as Vin Diesel once said, maybe the only person you can rely on is yourself. Yeah, true. And Vin Diesel, he's the philosopher of our age.

I mean, he is. He is. I think it's an interesting concept. If it works for you, then it works for you. Yeah, totally. Yeah, but I mean, it'll be interesting to see how they go living under one roof. I'd love to talk to some listeners who are in this situation. I don't think anyone will have been in it for this long.

Not that long. But long-term relationships where you still don't live together. Yeah, how long? Surely no one who's married listening to us doesn't live together. Well, you never know. Because, I mean, we don't want the long distance thing. No, that doesn't count. Because that doesn't really count. Because you guys can't

live together. Yeah. We more mean have you chosen to keep living separately? Yeah, maybe you've had a relationship for seven years. Yeah, but you're in the same city. Yeah, but you're in a committed relationship. Yeah. You just go, we don't want to live together. We know that we don't want to be in the same room together

all the time. Let's see if there's anyone out there and can you convince everybody else that this is the key to a happy relationship? I'm excited to hear from these people. 0800 dial ZM or you can text us on 9696. Have you been in a relationship for a long time,

but you don't live together? If it's really convincing, I'll move out. I'm going to get a flat in town somewhere. What you know about Brie and Clint? A couple in the UK has made headlines this week after they said they've been together for 20 years, they've been married, they've got a son together, but they've never lived together. Yeah, the secret to their happy marriage was not living together.

Exactly. After the husband got a new job and had to move further away and then they had the trouble of finding their son a new school, they thought, now's the time. Let's give it a go. Let's give it a crack. I reckon they're doomed. Bree reckons that's a horrible thing to say,

but I think mummy and daddy are getting a divorce. What you want to know this afternoon is that your secret to a happy relationship. Have you been in a long-term relationship and you guys have never lived together? Anna's here. Hi, Anna. Hi, Anna. Hi, guys. How are you going?

Good, thanks, mate. How are you? Yeah, good. How long have you and your partner been together, Anna? Almost eight years. And you've never lived together? He only just moved in with me last November Whoa

He's been living with his parents in the meantime Oh my god, that's crazy Eight years, is it really weird living together now? Yeah, it is weird But it took a while to get used to Because I'm only 24 Right Is it, and I mean you don't have to tell us

if you think he might be listening, but is it better? No, it's great. It is really great. It is good. Okay. Can he cook? Can he cook? Is he a clean person to live with?

No, he's not. Love that, Anna. That's so great. Okay, baby steps. A few texts on the text machine. Someone said, my parents have been together for over 30 years and have always had their own houses. Wow.

They did live together in my late teens for three years and it was probably the worst time in their relationship. Back to two houses definitely made things better again. That's incredible. That's amazing. Two houses. It does work. The good thing is that you're going to inherit two houses.

Clint, always thinking with his wallet. You know, you're like, mum, dad, I don't reckon you should fuse at all. I think you keep doing what you're doing. Someone else said, still living with my partner after 17, still with my partner of 17 years and we have never lived together. It works well. Wow. This person wants to remain anonymous. Hello, Anonymous. Hi, how are you?

Good, thanks, Anonymous. How long have you and your partner been together? 17 years. Wow. And never lived together at all? No, never lived together. What's the longest time you guys have spent in one place together? Like, have you been on holiday for a couple of weeks? Yeah, that's a great question. Probably three weeks. Wow, that's it. Three weeks. Yeah, that's probably the longest. And by the end of it, were you like, I need a break?

Oh, not really. No, it was good. You know, we sort of know each other, you know. Yeah. Know all about each other now. Are you married? No, not married. Hey, 17 years and you're not married either.

No. Wow, just taking things slowly. Very slowly. I love that, Anonymous. Good for you guys. Do what works for you. Totally. Yeah, just taking things slowly. Very slowly. I love that, Anonymous. Good for you guys. Do what works for you. Totally. Yeah, it does.

Okay. That's great. Someone else on the text machine, this is probably the biggest one. Someone said, my dear friends Sue and Peter have been married for 27 years last Wednesday and they've never lived together. They maintain their own homes and have sleepovers two to three times a week. This arrangement is now a personal life goal for me. Wow.

That's awesome. It would be more exciting. It would be. Yeah. It would be. And if anyone has seen Sex and the City, the second movie, they do float the idea. Has anyone seen the second movie?

Yeah, no, true. Bree and Clint. It's time for the latest. From iHeartRadio, this is The Latest. Live from LA with Dean McCarthy. Dean, one of the major cast members from the movie Mean Girls has spoken out about how him and his fiancée have been denied a wedding venue.

Yeah, this is kind of making headlines around LA today. Jonathan Bennett, he played Aaron Samuels. Remember the guy that was like, don't you think his hair looks pushed back? Yeah, your hair looks so sexy pushed back. Right? It really does actually. Well, he and his fiancee James, they went to a book reception place in Mexico for their wedding, right? Anyway, the owner of the resort said that he would not allow them to get married there because they're gay. And he said,

this goes against quote, my, my, my morals is what the owner of the place said. So, uh, James and, um, obviously,

uh, the two of them, Jonathan have gone public with this feedback. Uh, the owner of the Mexican resort is getting some backlash as you would. And they found another fabulous venue. I think they're actually getting married. I think it's still in Mexico,

actually. Um, but look, I mean, it's made a lot of headlines and I've got to tell you something. I think they're actually getting married. I think it's still in Mexico, actually. But look, I mean, it's made a lot of headlines, and I've got to tell you something. I have a, oh, this still makes me cringe every time I think about this. I am not getting invited to this wedding, and let me explain why. I humiliated myself at their house once. Oh, what?

So I've got to tell you a story. So every year, so one of my best friends, TK, is Jonathan Bennett's personal trainer. Anyway, so every year, Jonathan Bennett has a Halloween party. Because you know in the movie, he has a big Halloween party? Well, in real life, he has a Halloween party and he invites all his friends and that. Anyway, so I thought that it would be super sexy. So I went as a Chippendale because James used to be a Chippendale.

So I dressed up. I had a little bow tie, no shirt, these ripped jeans. There's a photo of it on my Instagram. I still cringe. Anyway, so I get to the door. I knock on the door because TK and that were meeting me there. And the guy who played the gay guy in the movie opens the door. He's dressed up as a banana.

And I was like, oh, that's weird. He didn't really get into it. I want my pink shirt back. Right. I walk in. There's children playing pass the parcel. There's a grandma. It was like a neighborhood Halloween, like for kids and family members.

And I walked in as a stripper and they're all dressed up in like little bunnies and like regular kind of outfits. And no one would speak to me because I literally looked like. Oh my God. This is like a scene out of Mean Girls. No, this is a scene you Bridget Jones yourself. That's. You live the weirdest life, man.

Seriously, we love you. We love having you on the show. Because who else? Who else would have shown up? That is ridiculous. Right? That's the latest live out of Los Angeles. With a bonus personal story from Dean McCarthy today,

thanks to Pepsi Max, Max tastes no sugars given. Dean's not allowed to play past the parcel at that point. Dean just walks in and he's like, would you like your muffin buttered? Okay, I've got a song game for you where you can try and guess. I said the sample. I think it's more of a melody that they've used. They've licensed a melody and I want to see

if you can recognise it, okay? Because if people listening haven't realised, they probably have is that nearly everything has been done in music. Everything is being reused at the moment. So now they just take, you know, popular samples or stuff from old songs. Get someone who's done the hard work to make it familiar and then just do your crappy singing over the top of it.

That's all it takes these days. And then put a doof, doof, doof underneath it. There's one song we're playing at the moment that... Oh, yeah. What song is that? We played it before. It's do-do-do-do, do-do-do-do-do. Yeah, I know this song.

That sounds exactly like it. So the new one is Rita Ora, okay? I have heard murmurs about this. Oh, so you already know it? No, I don't, but I've heard that she has done something. It's not brand, brand new, but it's sort of just starting to get some attention now. Okay.

So I'm going to play you the Rita Ora song, the new track from Rita Ora. All right. And you tell me if you can pick the song that she's used, the melody that she's used to create this new song, which is called Bang Bang. Okay, have a quick listen. Here it comes.

Ding, ding. Rita Ora has used... Crazy Frog. Yes, she has. What's going on? This bit here, this bit. Correct me if I'm wrong, though. Crazy Frog used someone else's stuff, didn't they?

Are you calling Crazy Frog a... I don't know. Are you calling Crazy Frog a... Let me Google it. I don't know. But the version that she's used is Crazy Frog's version. Gotcha. And I just have to say, why? Like, why?

Yeah, look. There's a whole generation of parents out there that thought they'd just escaped this song. Crazy Frog. And now you're bringing it back. Is it the song I'd think, oh, what well-loved song can I use and bring back? Yeah, yeah. And when you're producing your song, you go, man, music was better back in the day.

I need to find some real music. I know. Crazy frog. I can't wait for the Schnappi song to come back. Oh, Schnee Schnee Schnappi. Yeah. Yeah. Victoria Beckham's doing that one.

Is she? No. Brian Clint. I want to talk about lies that your parents told you. I put this thing up on my Instagram the other day, which was basically saying, before you have kids, you never think you're going to lie to them. You're like, I would never lie to my children.

No, I always have thought I would lie to my kids. Really? Yeah, absolutely. Right. Well, you're ahead of the game because the reality is once you have kids, you realise that lying is the best weapon in your arsenal. It's fundamental. It's all you've got.

You want to go to the park? Oh, the park's actually closed. Yeah, they don't know what a lie is. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's the only way to get your way. You want some cheese? Actually, we've run out of cheese. That's all you've got is lies.

Someone DM'd me about this and theirs was bigger and better than any lie that I've bought in yet. They said they used to nanny for some kids and in the house that they nannied in, there was a light switch that everybody was pretty sure did nothing. Like that episode of Friends,

when they've got the switch and they're flicking it on and off and they can't figure out what it does. Sometimes there's a switch in a house that just does nothing. Or if it does do something, you can't see what it is, so you don't care. They decided to tell the kids that that switch sent a message to either Santa or the Easter Bunny, depending on which holiday was closer,

and to let them know that the kids had been misbehaving. So anytime they were playing up or not doing what they were supposed to do, they'd go over to the switch and they'd go, all right, I'm going to have to flick the switch. I'm going to have to flick the switch. I'm going to flick it. And the kids are like, no! No, don't tell Easter Bunny, no!

And they go, well, you better, seriously, you better put your pants back on. Or whatever it is you're trying to get the kids to do at that time. And it's one of those innocent lies that you can use that, you know, helps you out. But when you get older and you realise that you are being duped, how ripped off would you feel? I know.

I mean, you know, going to Santa Claus or the Easter Bunny and telling them what's going on, that's a classic, you know, because no kid wants to upset those important people. No. You know, they're the most important people ever. Absolutely, yeah, yeah. But I actually experienced this firsthand over the weekend from our boss, Ross Boss.

Right. And he, that's funny. Okay. His son, Harvey, who's the cutest kid in the world, we're at this engagement party and Harvey was there and Ross was there and we're all kind of standing around and Harvey's like, I want to go upstairs. I want to go upstairs to the top part of the house.

And Ross is like, Harvey, you can't go up there. Like we're at someone else's house pretty much. And Harvey's like, I want to go up there. I want to see what's up there. And that's when I hear Ross Boss pull out the biggest lie. He goes, hold on, I'm just going to get on the phone to the Prime Minister. Yes, hello, Jacinda Ardern. The upstairs of the house is closed, is it?

Okay, I will tell Harvey no word of a lie. And I watch Harvey watch his dad and Harvey's like, that seems to check out. She was on TV. That seems legit. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I trust her. I trust the prime minister.

He's my parenting hero. That is pure genius. It was so good. We want to know this afternoon, what's the lie that your parents told you when you were a kid? Maybe it's taken you 30 years to figure it out, but your parents got away with it.

What's the lie that they were spinning you for ages? Call us. Tell us. Out them. Dob them in. Make sure no other kid ever suffers the same fate as you. My mum told me she loved me. She's still keeping that lie up, isn't she?

She's still trying to keep it up. You can text your lies in to 9696 as well. Brie and Clint. Talking about lies that your parents told you. Yeah. We talked about a massive lie that my mum told me. And we talked about it on this show. What was it?

And remember we called her. Yeah. And we called her out about it. What was it? My mum told me that my dog, Scampi, when I was four or five, went to go live with my nan for a little while. Turns out that Scampi had been hit by a car and they replaced Scampi and that's when it was living with my nan with a different dog.

Getting another dog, yeah. It was a completely different dog. That's right. That was a big fat lie. That was for your own good, that one. You weren't ready for it. You weren't ready for the truth. We want to know the lies your parents told you. Hi, Shannon. Hi, Shannon.

Hi. What was that? What did your parents lie to you about? Whenever Mr. Whipper used to come down our street. Oh. Ah, Shannon. It'll be the classic, right? Yeah, when the music's playing, it's out of ice cream Yeah

And kids, if you're listening, that's not a lie, that's true Yeah, it is true If your parents have told you that, it's true Unless, of course, your parents have told you the siren means plenty of ice cream In which case, that's also true Yeah, that's true Whatever your parents said is true Let's go to Sam

Hi, Sam Hi Hi, what. Hi. Hi. What's the lie your parents told you? So when me and my brother were kids, we were told if you play with your belly button, your butt will fall off.

That seems to check out with me. Yeah, I still tell my grandchildren this and they believe it. Yeah, right. I just don't understand the logistics of how your butt falls off. But you know what? Kids don't need to know logistics. That's not their forte. Do you want to hear a few texts on this? Someone said,

the kids I nanny are always asking to play games on my phone, so I told them I don't have fingerprints and can't unlock it. That's good. That's very good. Someone else said, every time I would lie, my parents would say that they can see the hooks in my eyes. I was terrified at lying to them for ages. Hooks in my eyes?

The hooks. Hooks? I don't know. My brother used to tell me as a kid that the reason my skin was brown was because I was born at night time. That's good. Paikea is here. Hi, Paikea.

Hi. Hi. Are your parents lying to you, Paikea? It says here you're 10 years old. Are your parents lying to you? Yes. What do you think? My mum told me that the birthmark,

that she said that she had a birthmark at the top of her forehead, but I learned out last week that it's actually a tattoo. Oh, no. And it's been my tattoo my whole life. Wow. How did you figure it out, Pikea? I asked Nana. Right.

Oh, true. Nana's are good for that. Now, they would have just been saying it so that they didn't influence you, Pikea, and mean that you went and got a tattoo on your forehead. But now that you know the truth, are you keen to go get a tattoo on your forehead? No, once you get it hurt. Fair enough, fair enough. Good.

Stick to the neck or... Yeah. You don't want a Mike Tyson tattoo. Thanks for listening, Pikea. Good to talk to you. Thank you, bye. Bree and Clint. I just wanted to touch on something really quickly that we talked about yesterday, Pike. Yeah, good to talk to you. Thank you. Bye. Bree and Clint. I just wanted to touch on something really quickly that we talked about yesterday, Clint,

and it was the stress I'm going through at the moment because I have struggled with a couple of disorders for the last 10 years, endometriosis and polycystic ovaries. Both horrific disorders that affect so many women that you probably don't even realise that the person sitting next to you has one of these. And I was struggling with the fact that the pill that I've been on for the last 10 years that I'm on for these particular things is discontinued and now I don't know what to do. They put you on the generic brand. They put me on the generic brand. It's already not going very well and spoke about it yesterday

and I just wanted to talk about how overwhelmed in a good way that I was yesterday with how many women got in contact with me about speaking out about it yesterday because it's got this weird stigma attached to it where people are like, you know, they don't talk about it enough and it's something that affects so many fellow Wahine and it's important that we talk about it. I just wanted to say a massive thank you to everyone that got in touch with me on social media, on the text machine

and all the nice words and comments about, you know about how important it is that we talk about these things and that we educate women because something like endometriosis, if you don't catch it early enough, you won't be, like it'll make it nearly impossible to get pregnant later on in life. But if we talk about it more and people know about this thing. You can prevent it. You can prevent it or there's things to do. You can do things like have operations and

take steps to make it a lot easier later in life. Didn't you say you had a weird bonding moment in reception with I did. Are you allowed to say how it was with? Yeah, of course. They've been in Women's Day and they've spoken out about it. Brinley Stent and Angela Dravid who are

amazing New Zealand comedians and our very own Hayley Sproul, who's on The Breakfast Show. Yeah. They did a photo shoot talking about how they all have polycystic ovaries. Yeah, but what did they say to you in reception? They say, hey, you're an Indo girl, like us. Yeah, they go, are you a fellow polycystic ovary sister? Oh, yeah, yeah.

And I was like, yes, I'm one of you guys. They're like, come around. You've got to get your leather jacket. I know. And it's amazing to talk to – We've got to get you patched up. It's so amazing to talk to other women who go through similar things because, you know, people that have endo,

it can be so crippling that you can't even work and you can't even get out of bed. And I've had days like that and it's really tough. And I think it's power in numbers and if you can talk to other women who are going through a similar thing it makes you feel a lot better about it totally you know definitely and I think it's so important I just wanted to say a massive thank you to everyone that got in touch and yeah talk to your friends and family around you if you're having a bad day or educate some people about something that is really important to talk about. So I just wanted to say I appreciate everyone yesterday.

Good stuff. Nice stuff. Keeping up to date with the news just became a little easier. As it heralds new podcasts, the front page is your short, sharp daily news podcast. Join me, Damien Venuto, every weekday morning as I chat with journalists and newsmakers going behind the headlines to break down what you need to know

on the biggest news stories of the day. Listen to the front page at nzherald.co.nz slash podcasts and follow us on iHeartRadio or wherever you get your podcasts. It's time for Google Down. Google, are you down, down, down, down, down, down, down? I wasn't ready. Hell, I think Google's actually... No-one ever is ready for Google to go down.

But here we are. This is where we find the fastest Googlers in the West, and by West, I mean New Zealand. South. Yeah. Today, taking on producer Ben, producer Anastasia. And you. And me is Joseph.

Kia ora, Joseph. G'day, Joe. Kia ora, boys, girls. How are you? What are we Googling on, Joseph? What device? My secondary phone. All right, perfect.

Wait, wait, wait. Secondary phone. I think he's calling someone. Oh, right, right. Niceary phone. I think he's calling someone. Oh, right, right. Okay. Nice, Joe. I like that. So everyone here in the studio will be Googling on a phone.

Also, let me remind you of the rules. When you think you know the top answer that Google gives you for the question, you need to just yell it out straight away. If it's wrong, you are out for that question. First of three questions right will win. Okay. All right. Everyone ready?

Ready. Question number one. How many pounds in a kilo? Start Googling. A thousand. 2.205 pounds. Yep, Anastasia got it. Unlucky, guys.

Anastasia is here to play this afternoon. How did you get it so fast? What did you write? How many pigeons in the kitchen? Oh, my goodness. Wow. Okay, that's what we're up against, Joseph. That's the kind of rapid enthusiasm we have to take down. Spelling is not important in this game.

Well, there you go. The tip from the Googler herself, spelling not important. Actually, that has actually let me down on some other occasions. All right, now she's trying to backtrack. Yeah. Question number two. What year did the song Wannabe by the Spice Girls come out? 1995.

1996. Clint is out. Anastasia is right. It is 1996. Good try, though. I went for a guess. I was like, I'm not going to beat Anastasia to the Google. I'll just go off my brain.

No, I appreciate that. And once again, my brain lets measia to the Google. I'll just go off my brain. No, I appreciate that. And once again, my brain lets me down. My brain. All right, come on, Jo. Joseph, you're our great hope here because if you don't or I don't, and Ben, I guess Ben could do it, if someone doesn't get one right here, Anastasia's going to clean sweep us. So, lads, you need to pick up your game here, all right?

Question number three. How many kilometres is Rome away from Venice? How many kilometres is Rome away from Venice? 526. That is correct, Jo. Whoa, Jo. Nice work. That was amazing.

That was a bit of a tough one because the answer was a bit further down. I weirdly got the next flight. No, no, no. How much is it? All right, cool. So Joseph is on one. Anastasia is on two. The rest of the lads on zero.

I think we're out. I think it's between Joseph and Anastasia. No, you're still in. Okay, all right. Question number four. What year was Harry Styles born? 93. 1980.

Oh, no, that's Harry Potter. 1994. Clint has won. Good guess from me. Good guess from producer Ben. Just one year off. It is 1994. He's 27 at the moment.

Oh, damn it. That means Clint's on one and Anastasia's on two. Yeah, I'll just unmute myself. Ben's out. It's easier. It's going to be easier. Joseph is on one. Oh, damn it. That means Clint's on one, Anastasia's on two. I can, yeah, I'll just, I'll mute myself. Ben's out. It's easier. It's going to be easier. Joseph is on one. Come on, Joseph.

It's me and you to take down Anastasia. Come on, here we go. You still there, Joseph? Yes, I am. Come on, Joe. You got this, mate. Question number five. What was The Rock actually cooking?

Start Googling. Pancakes. Start Googling. Pancakes. Anastasia has taken it out this afternoon. It was pancakes. What kind of question is that? That's a great question. That is a great question. When you type in what was the rock, because obviously his catchphrase is

can you smell what the rock is cooking? Yeah. And turns out it was pancakes. Joseph, don't worry, mate. Plenty of people have lost to Anastasia and plenty more people will after this as well. Amazing on that Rome question, though. He can't have the title,

but let's give him the KFC chicken dollars anyway. Yeah, you got the dollars. Oh, cheers, guys. No worries, Joe. Thanks for playing. There it is. Google down for another week. And no questions as to why you've got two phones. We won't even ask, Joseph. Don't worry about it, guys. No worries, Joe. Thanks for playing. There it is. Google down for another week. And no questions as to why you've got two phones.

We won't even ask, Joseph. Don't worry about it, man. Your secret's safe with us. I've got cool news for dog people. Okay, you've already got my attention. Yeah. Dog lovers, listen up. The QT Hotel, which is arguably the coolest hotel in New Zealand.

I love the QT. Both the QT Auckland and the QT Wellington are now dog friendly. No. This is cool. That's awesome. This actually makes me jealous that I don't have a dog. Because then you would be like, this is the place to go. Yeah.

I mean, you can go there without a dog. It's not a prerequisite. But if you've got a dog. I don't have a dog. Because then you would be like, this is the place to go. Yeah. I mean, you can go there without a dog. It's not a prerequisite. But if you've got a dog. But if you have a dog. So let me talk you through it. They're fancy hotels, but they're cool as well. They're also like different. Like the rooms are really like, you know.

Yeah. So let's set the tone. The dog friendly stays that you can now do are available to dog owners with dogs that are under 20 kgs. Oh, that's Whitney. Only just. That girl's chunking up. You leave her alone.

Don't fat shame her. That's a huge bitch. She's only seven and a half kilos. Just kidding. So your dog's got to be under 20 kgs. Perfect. And if it is, the dog is welcome to stay at the hotel with you. They have special pet-friendly rooms.

Cute. And let me tell you what you get if you stay at the QT. This is hashtag not sponsored, by the way. This is just awesome. I think it's a cool idea. And I think that dog lovers in particular want to know about this. Because it means that you can go for a staycation in Auckland and you don't have to get someone else to look after your dog for you.

Or in Wellington, if you live in Wellington. Or you can go on holiday with the dog. Anyone who has a dog knows that it can be quite stressful. Yeah. If you want to do just a quick trip or if you're like, because you're like, what do I do with my paws? So it's more fun than just having the dog in the hotel, I'll tell you. You get in the dog-friendly rooms, designer dog bedding and dog bowls.

So they get their own little cute bed. Yes. You get a dog minibar full of dog snacks and dog treats. That's awesome. And there's also a dedicated in-room dogs-only dinner menu. I had some friends stay at the QT in Auckland last night and they took their dog with them. And they showed me the meal.

It's not just any meal. They ordered for their dog. They ordered them a beef tartare to the room. And this plate of raw mince and with an egg cracked in it came for the dog. Dogs love that. Very, very fancy. See, this is the kind of thing we need in 2021.

It's a cool idea. I love it so much because there's so many people that would definitely do this, I feel. Be aware. There is a soiling fee. Is there? Yeah. The responsibility is yours to make sure the dog does its business

outside the QT hotel. Fair enough. Otherwise, yeah, you're on the hook. But other than that, go for it. Is there an extra charge or anything? I think there is an extra charge. I think it's a cleaning fee that gets added onto it. But, I mean, you've got to pay to put it into a kennel anyway, right?

Absolutely. It'd be cheaper, I'd say. If anyone from the QT is listening, I'll pretend to be a dog if you guys give me a night in this hotel. That's how much I'd want to If anyone from the QT is listening, I'll pretend to be a dog if you guys give me a night in this hotel. That's how much I'd want to come and stay there. This radio show just got weird. I don't know if you've been watching,

but Married at First Sight is in its last week. I told you, I've been hate-watching every episode. I know, it's very hard not to watch. It's kind of like a car crash. Yeah. You can't look away, but you know you should. I'm left with the same feeling after every episode. Anger.

Anger. Disappointment. What is wrong with these people? What is wrong with these people? Well, it's not all of them. It's not all of them, but also one of the feelings, the other one is, oh, they just met. There's no way they thought these guys were a good match.

They just matched them for the controversy. These experts aren't real experts. No bullshit. Of course. It's television. I know that in my heart of hearts. What do you think they were just matching everyone to make everyone super happy? Yeah, I thought that's the idea of the show.

How boring would that TV show be? They're meant to be experts. Anyway, yes. So answer your question. I've seen every episode. Anyway, something's to answer your question, I've seen every episode. Anyway, something's been unravelling on the show this week, which has been there's a couple on the show, the guy's name is Bryce and the woman's name is Melissa,

and throughout the whole entire show, or maybe three weeks in, there was a rumour about Bryce having a secret girlfriend on the outside. Yeah. And it was all rumour and there was a rumor about Bryce having a secret girlfriend on the outside yeah and um it was all rumor and there was no like proof and everyone would like you know have their say and he denied it the whole time denied denied denied yeah anyway um in the last couple of episodes of Married at First Sight one of the contestants who's left the car left the experiment has met up with one of his friends because they live in the same place. Yeah.

And one of Bryce's best mates has told her pretty much what's been happening. The truth. The truth. Yeah. And we've got the audio here of when Samantha comes back into the experiment and she tells Melissa that the rumour is true. I don't know if you know about a girl back in Canberra that he's been talking to and messaging.

He has been messaging her quite frequently and tried to get time off to go to the rugby with her. Basically, she's waiting for him to come off the show. That's the honest truth. I even know the girl's name. Her name's ****. Yeah. Anyway, you see Melissa, who's the wife of this guy

that's been denying it, and she's like, I'm an idiot. They broke her, eh? Why didn't I believe this rumour that, you know, there was all these people telling me? Yeah. And they've all been saying the whole way through, and this is what people always say with these rumours. Well, with this smoke, there's fire.

It's so true too. You don't... It is true. Where there's smoke, there's got to be some sort of truth to it. Yeah. Yeah. You would feel like an idiot if it was you

and you'd been on TV for weeks and weeks and weeks going, he's not lying to me. I believe him. He's not lying to me. I believe him. He's not lying to me. I believe him. And then on nationwide or international TV, we're watching it here in New Zealand. I know.

You're made to look like a bit of a fool. Do you trust your gut and believe the rumour? I wonder if people listening have been in this situation. Like have they, you know, got rumours, like have they heard rumours about certain things? And you refused to believe it at the start. Yeah, you didn't believe it and then it turned out to be true. I think it's human nature to side with your partner initially.

Well, you should. If you've got a good relationship, you probably should be siding with your partner. Also, it's really hard as the person who has to tell you the rumour. Very difficult. Because often it falls to a friend to tell you something you really don't want to hear. And that can ruin friendships.

You have to decide whether you think that person can handle the truth or not. But you kind of just got to tell them and hope for the best, right? Especially if you don't have like concrete physical proof. Because it's like one person's word against another. So what do we want to know? What rumour, what's the rumour that you should have believed because it was true,

but initially you didn't? What was the rumour? Yeah, when should you have believed the rumour? 0800 DIAL ZM or you can text us on 9696. You can remain anonymous if you'd like. What's the rumour you should have believed? The biggest case of where there's smoke, there's fire is all unravelling in the last week of Married at First Sight Australia.

Yeah. Where this has been going on for a long time, where there's been rumours about one of the grooms that he's had a secret girlfriend on the outside. His wife has stood by him, didn't believe it, and then it turns out it's true. It looks like it's probably true. It looks like it's, yeah, probably true.

So we want to know this afternoon, when should you have believed the rumours? Like Melissa, I'm married at first sight. When should you have just listened the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, maybe even sixth time and gone? And been like, okay, wait a minute. This is a pattern here. There's something going on.

There could be something in this. Let's talk to Debbie. Hi, Debbie. Hi, Debbie. Hi. What was the rumour, Debbie? I met a gentleman and the rumour a couple of

three weeks after we had met was that just be careful, he may be after you just for residency. No way, Debbie. So we were together for a year and then we moved in together for another year and then we moved in together for another year. And bang on that year that we were moving in together, you can apply for residency.

No! Debbie, I'm sorry to hear that. Debbie, that's so devastating. Can I ask who told you about it? Who kind of told you about the rumour? It was one of my friends that we'd had a tiff Not so long beforehand And I just thought she was just being You know, really

Jealous or To be quite honest, yeah Are you still friends with her now? Yes, yes we are Oh, that's good I'm glad Debbie, that sucks We're really sorry to hear that

That's alright But hey, these things happen for a reason, right? And at least he's gone Because That's true You'd be worse off having a person like that in your life for longer, right? I sent him out of the house with only undies and the shirt that he was wearing. Yes, Debbie. Good work, Debbie. That's all he deserves. Jennifer's here.

Hi, Jennifer. Hi, Jen. Hi, guys. How are you? Good, thanks, Jen. What was the rumor that you should have believed? Okay, well, said boyfriend lived in a different city, went to this work conference do.

One of my other colleagues took along this chick, and they went together. But all night, he was just like, every time I saw him, he was talking to her, seemed very friendly with her. But he's a friendly sort of guy anyway. Anyway, after this function, a lot of people kept on coming up to me at work and going, oh, I don't know about your boyfriend,

you know, blah, blah, blah. He was very overly friendly. And after about a week of hearing all these rumours and stuff, I thought, stop this. So I rung the girl, because I knew her. Yeah, boss move. And I said, has my boyfriend been ringing you? And she liked me.

We were friends before. And she was going, oh, my God, Jennifer. Yeah, he has. He's been asking to hook up. Really? Yeah. You don't need to know about it and blah, blah, blah. I'm so glad she was honest and just told you straight out.

I mean, she should have probably told you beforehand, but good on her. No, she wouldn't have thought it was her place. She's like, I just need to steer clear of this thing. Yeah, I'm glad she, yeah. I just need to hear, tell me the truth. I need to know the truth. And she said, yep, it's true. Oh, sorry, Jen.

Glad you got to hear the truth. And I'm glad, yeah, she was straight up. There's one text here on the text machine. We're asking, when should you have believed the rumours? Someone texted through and they said, I should have believed the rumour that my ex-boyfriend was the biggest drug dealer in our town. Wow.

Who was telling you? Was it the people showing up to your house asking for tinnies? Who knows? This person wants to remain anonymous, and that's totally fine. Anonymous, when should you have believed the rumours? So, this was when I was 18, young, dumb, and first love, you know? Yeah, fair enough. I got a text from a fake profile on Facebook

telling me that my boyfriend is hanging out with other girls or asking if I was still with him. Yeah, oh, weird. And I couldn't reply back to this fake profile on Facebook telling me that my boyfriend is hanging out with other girls or asking if I was still with him. Yeah. Oh, weird. And I couldn't reply back to this fake profile because it was fake. And so then I was like,

oh, I've kind of confronted my boyfriend at the time and he was like, oh, no, it's just someone who's playing jokes. Yeah. He believes it when you're 18. And then came out three months later

that I got another text from it that I could reply back to it. So then I started a convo with this person, had no clue who it was to this day, and telling me, you know, he's cheating on you, blah, blah, blah, confronted my ex all the time. He was like, oh, it's just

a kiss. And then it came out halfway through that it was a bit more. He told me, he kind of came out, but should have believed it Yeah Who was the fake profile? Did you ever find out?

I still have no clue to this day And like I know who the profile was Because I didn't believe it I reckon it's It's that new Avenger That just tracks down people Who are cheaters

The Exposer Yeah, the Exposer Yeah, not to be confused with the flasher. No, different people. Read the, can you read the, you've got to read that one. This is a great text. Someone texted through, when should you have believed the rumours? And it says, I lived with an elderly couple who were Latter-day Saints

when I was younger. And after about three months, their drug-addicted son told me that they were swingers. I didn't believe him for a good six months, and he kept persisting that it was true. He didn't have any evidence, so I thought it was maybe the drugs talking. However, one time I was supposed to be on holiday in Queenstown,

but I missed my flight and I had to go home, and turns out they were having a swingers party. Should have believed the rumours. Should have believed him. Could have saved your eyeballs a lot of pain. And a lot of money in therapy. You went, Jesus Christ, and the Latter-day Saints. All right, here we go.

Really? Yeah. Kid Rock was that far down the chain? I'm afraid so. Poor Kid Rock. Poor Kid Rock. Poor Kid Rock. What was that?

He read out that meme tweet one time on Jimmy Kimmel where it was like, I just lost respect for most of my friends who said they just went to an amazing kid rock concert on Facebook. He was married to Pamela Anderson. Was he? Yeah. I think I did know that.

Not for long. No one was married to Pamela Anderson for long. All right, all right. You leave Pamela alone. Look, a scientist has come out and given some information. Not me. This is from a scientist, which they know what they're talking about. The one Coldplay wrote that song about.

Yeah, exactly. The scientist. He has given out three ages where he says your body ages the most. I've seen this. They say that aging is not linear. It's not day by day. No, it's not like a slow kind of equal thing. There's massive drop offs.

So you age more at certain years of your life. I just want to say if you're listening to this, don't put too much stock in it. How old are you? Let's just start with that. How old are you? Let's just start with that. How old are you? 30-ish. Give more exact. Early 30s.

Oh, I think you're mid. Early. I believe you're mid. Mid. I'm under 35, okay? Perfect. All right, under 35. Let's listen to the audio about the three ages

this scientist thinks you age the most it turns out your body ages most at three really specific years or ages in your lifetime so the first age when we see a major biological shift is 34 years old the second is 60 years old and the third is 78 years old researchers have found out is at those ages there's around 1300 proteins in the blood that suddenly change so up until 34 they're relatively stable and consistent and then there's a big change and then between 34 and 60 it's consistent again and then another big change and the same goes for 78 well what changes because look at me i'm fine. Has anything dropped? No, nothing's dropped.

Because, you know, like, I'll be honest. Like, us females, sometimes your girls. It goes down. Your bosoms, they do drop. And I was thinking, you know, for you. My boozies are in the same place. No, I'm not talking about your boozies. Oh, my boozies.

I'll send you a photo tonight. Okay, good. And then I'll compare them in a few years I'll do like a height chart on the wall There's a story today about a woman Who is so upset about the identifier That some restaurant staff have given her So she was having a meal at a restaurant And by identifier I mean the thing that they put in the system

So they could know who she was And what her bill was at the end She's taken a photo and by identifier I mean the thing that they put in the system so they could know who she was and what her bill was at the end. She's taken a photo and she's uploaded it because she ate her meal and paid the bill and then got the receipt took it home. What have they put on there? They described her as girl by herself. Oh

well I mean it's true. It's true. Yeah but you don't have to point it out, okay? She knows she's by herself, okay? And what if she got stood up? What if she was meant to be on a date and she got stood up? I think that's fine because it's true. It got us talking about the fact that everybody has an identifier

and you listening, you have an identifier, you just might not know it. Because people don't say it to you, they say it about you to identify you. I always think about this because anyone who's seen the movie Easy A, I'm pretty sure it's in that film, they talk about this and they're

in high school if you haven't seen the movie and they say to each other, wait, what's my identifier? And then they find out what each other's is. You never know your identifier unless you ask. So this afternoon we're going to do a service for each other and we're going to tell each other what our identifiers are. We're going to bring the producers in too.

Producer Ben, hello. Oh, hey, mate. Producer Anastasia, hello. Hello. All right, you guys are going to be involved in this. I reckon we do them first. Okay, let's do them first. So Ben, are you ready to find out what your identifiers are?

So everyone's going to do their own thing? We'll tell you what yours are, okay? Yeah. And we'll make it casual, make it cool. Okay. I'll start it off. Alright, you go first. You know, Ben, craft beer looking guy. That's, yeah.

Birkenstocks and socks and has tiny nipples. Ouch. That's how people talk about me. Well, you know you're last, right? Ben, who's Brie? You know Brie, that radio girl from Aussie, the one that just farts a lot and has that tiny little cat-dog thing?

Here's the date story I was telling you before. It's a TikTok that a guy has filmed on a date, a Tinder date, where it's raising the question, is this an okay thing to do on a date? And yes, surprisingly, it's the girl whose behaviour is in question. Right, interesting. Give it to us. So he showed up for a date, normal date it's the girl whose behavior is in question right interesting give it to us so he showed up for a date normal date pre-planned with a tinder match

um or bumble or whatever it's dating app match yeah she's like yeah let's go meet me here at this time um he's shown up but when he got there there were 15 other guys there as well all to date her at the same time at the same, was she running her own reality show? She said that she wanted to set up her own version of Love Island, so she invited all of her matches to the same place at the same time. That is not... Not Love Island. That's a different type of island, and it starts with O.

O, O, O. Do I want to know? I don't know if I want to know. Here's the guy talking about it, okay? He jumped straight on TikTok and recorded this. As this you guys know i'm pretty bad at dating but i actually decided to go on a date and uh this is what happened uh so this is the friend i'm the friend i'm forced to be here so i thought it would be one one this was the date that turned up before me yeah that's the second person on the date this is person number three this is the person who set
