Guess how much it is. The last one.
Tell me when you're ready. Um, 9.50.
8.49.
Hi everybody, welcome to the Brie and Clint podcast where Brie is torturing herself at the moment.
It's shit.
It's shit.
It's really shit. I hate this situation.
New Zealand, for those who don't live here, is in the grips of a housing crisis.
It's a shit show.
And the houses are redonkulously expensive.
Way overpriced.
To put it into perspective,
I went and looked at
a two and a half bedroom
because you can only get
a single bed
into one of the rooms.
So two and a half.
Good of them to not call it
a three bedroom then.
No, well they call it
a three bedroom
but I call it a two and a half
because if you don't have kids,
I'm like,
who's sleeping in here?
No, you're like,
this is a laundry.
And they're like, there's no washing machine. It's a bedroom. Two and a half because if you don't have kids, I'm like, who's sleeping in here? No, you're like, this is a laundry. And they're like, there's no washing machine.
It's a bedroom.
Two and a half bedroom with one bathroom in like what kind of suburb
would you say?
Just a real normal, not a fancy suburb.
Not a fancy suburb, not in a city, but not super far out either.
But not super far out either.
It's like, yeah, a couple of tiers out.
Anyway, yeah, two and a half bedroom one bathroom and it will cost you in the realm this
is auckland city prices between and this is a guesstimate from a few people a few builders and
stuff 1.3 and 1.4 shatter brick and not a nice place million by the way like it's 1.4. Shatterbrick. And not a nice place.
Million, by the way.
That's 1.4 million.
Yeah, 1.4 million.
There's a house on the front of the property that's right up against your garage.
Like Ben said, two houses for one.
Yeah, right?
And you'd think so.
So you don't own the front one.
Yeah, it's handy.
So I'm never going to buy a house.
There's a story during the rounds at the moment too
Because the houses are so expensive to buy
They're also really expensive to rent
And there's a guy who's getting in trouble with the police
Because he's renting out a shipping container on his front yard
Why? Because people
Legally are you allowed to rent out a shipping container as a house?
Is it over the bathroom and stuff?
Dunno
Has he like done it up?
Because I've seen shipping containers that have been
turned off. It's not one of those nice ones.
What's wrong with Anastasia's microphone?
No, that's how she talks now.
There you go. Hello. There she is.
Oh, what was wrong with it? It wasn't on.
Has he made it into a tiny house?
No, no. It's not cute.
It's a shipping container. It's got no windows.
Oh, that's horrible. Yeah, it looks like a bit of a shipping container. It's got no windows. Oh, that's horrible.
Yeah, it looks like a bit of a dungeon situation.
There's just no houses.
So Bree's torturing herself by looking at houses in Australia,
which are beautiful and much more affordable.
Yeah, Brisbane is the place to buy if you want value for money.
Oh, there's the shipping container.
Sorry, it does have a window.
Oh, that's not ideal.
$390 a week.
Humble abode.
Auckland, baby.
Where is that in Ponsonby?
No.
Wellington.
Oh, it's in Wellington.
Oh, it's in Johnsonville.
It's got a little sink.
Also not a fancy suburb.
Oh, wow.
That's grim.
Is that the toilet, do you think?
Washing machine.
Oh, yeah.
I've got a solution.
What is it?
Center circle. Possible carper. We can got a solution. What is it? Center circle.
Possible carpet.
We can just stay here.
Stay at work?
No one would know.
We're the last ones here.
Oh, maybe can.
Has anyone ever slept at work?
Yeah, heaps of times.
Oh, never.
There's one radio station I worked at, one of the first radio stations I worked at.
The policy was for all employees, if you were, and it was right near where all the nightclubs
and stuff were, it wasn't far.
Yeah.
And our boss, like the CEO or the big boss used to say.
Had to do one night at the radio station.
No, well, he used to say, yeah, if you're on a night out
and you find yourself in a situation where you can't get home.
Stay here.
He's like, you can stay here.
Unreal.
That's nice.
Yeah.
So the street
teamers, when we were in the street team,
we used to stay there quite a lot.
Just because, I mean,
we didn't get paid shit all.
I've done similar.
I used to be
rostered on to do weekend shifts
on air shifts.
Starting at 7am.
But you don't want to miss the party.
So go home from town to work
set the alarm, get up, do the show
I used to find my co-host
under the studio desk all the time
Oh I sleep on a couch
I'm not a madman
Oh there was a very good couch at this one radio station
There's a couch here now by the way
Where?
In Briony's studio
If you ever need it
No one would ever see you in there
Yeah it's true
It's like a honeycomb
She's got blankets and pillows on it too
Does she?
Well you'd probably go to sleep there then and she'd be on it
She would have taken it
Well I'd probably be with her so
No they're best friends.
Yeah.
God.
Jeez, Ben, that was inappropriate.
You guys are so inappropriate.
It's 2021, guys.
Briony's a taken woman.
By the way, Anastasia, I'm eating the nuts that you got me as a Christmas present.
How are they?
Are they crisp?
They're unroasted and unsalted.
Well, I was saying that it's because you're cheap
Oh no
You know you're cheap when you buy the unsalted nuts
She bought me a kilo
Because well to be honest
I feel like Clint's given me some
Some of his own
Nuts?
No I was at the supermarket and the joke was
Because well
I thought he doesn't have salt in roasted.
No, can I just say, I'll go on record.
If you don't salt your nuts, you're a psycho.
Really?
No, but I mean.
Why are you not doing that?
Because it's a good decision.
Sodium's not good for you.
And piss off with the health stuff.
A certain amount of sodium is necessary to prevent cramps.
I'll eat a salad later.
Ben, as an intrepid hiker who bags a lot of scroggins,
do you bag a lot of nuts?
I bag a ton of nuts.
Salt them on the what?
No, I buy them salted.
Is that what I mean?
Oh, yeah, right.
So you buy salted nuts?
Yeah, I normally buy...
I just was worried that Clint would be like,
oh, I'm too healthy for this.
I hate that word, by the way.
Scroggin.
That makes no sense.
Scroggin.
Scroggin, whatever it is.
It's not.
It's a trail mix.
Nothing's worse than people who make scrogin' at that M&M's.
Like, what's the point?
M&M's controversial.
I like a bit of chocolate in there.
Yeah, a little bit of chocolate.
How about M&M's?
It sounds like you're trying to talk about beef stroganoff.
Beef stroganoff.
Beef stroganoff.
Yeah, there's definitely better beef dishes.
I love beef stroganoff, mate.
I'll make that soon.
I like a beef casserole.
Yum.
I like tuna casserole.
But I don't know how to make it.
Is that controversial?
Casserole sounds nice.
Stew doesn't sound nice.
Isn't it funny how you can use different words?
No, a casserole's not a stew.
Stew's more watery than a casserole.
Casserole is a baked dish.
Stew is more a soup.
Stew is stewed. Do you guys like risoles? I love a risole. I went to a soup. Stew is stewed.
Do you guys like risoles?
I love a risole.
I went to a barbecue
at George's the other day.
Track me a few risoles.
They were like,
do you want risoles?
I was like,
oh, yuck.
Tried one.
Delicious.
Risoles is such an Aussie thing.
You can go to any butcher
and get yourself
a big fat risole.
They're povo meat, eh?
They're like payday meat.
I've eaten a lot of risoles. They're like meat, eh? Like, they're like payday meat. I've eaten a lot of rissole.
They're like luncheon meat.
Oh, no. What rissole
are you eating? Maybe they're different in Aussie.
By that I mean they're not fancy and they're cheap.
It's like a crappy piece of meat
with stuff, but it's all about the flavour.
And if you cook them right. Oh, you can get fancy risoles
back home. Yeah, well these were fancy risoles.
And then you can get crumbed risoles.
Oh, yeah. Which, you know, is stepping it up. Risole sounds like... Rissoles back home Yeah And then you can get Crumbed Rissoles Oh Yeah
Which you know
Step into that
Yeah
Rissole sounds like
Us
Rissole
Does it
Yeah
Us
Yeah possibly
Just a little bit
Us
Can we
We need to take some calls
Oh yeah we gotta wrap this up
Yeah
Even though this has been
Riveting chat
Well we're coming off
The big topic
It's a housing crisis
Nuts R Rissos.
We're good to go.
I'm never going to be able to buy pistachios again in my situation.
Enjoy the podcast, everybody.
See you tomorrow.
Hey, Google, what's the time?
It's 3 p.m.
Give or take a minute.
Alexa, play ZM on iHeartRadio.
Playing ZM on iHeartRadio.
Hey, Siri, when are Bree and Clint on?
Bree and Clint are on air in five,
four, three, two,
one. Good news everybody.
We survived the fire
drill today. Just.
Just. Yeah. Had a fire
drill just before we've come on air
today. It's like being back at school. I haven't been part of a fire
drill in years. Makes you reassess
your life, I feel like. A fire drill
gives you time to think.
Actually, I haven't asked you, what are your goals for 2021?
Oh, just get through.
We've got a kid on the way.
Really striving.
No, we've got a second kid on the way, so it's just hold on.
Just ride.
Yeah.
For dear life.
Just ride the lightning, baby.
Yeah.
I'm not putting any expectations on myself this year whatsoever.
Not one?
Not that I normally do.
There's not one goal that you want to make for yourself?
Okay, alright, yeah, sure.
I'd like an ab.
An ab?
Just, I'd like, yeah,
different, like,
if I could split what I've got
into two sections,
it'd be good.
You know what yours should be?
Yeah.
To grow a beard.
Nah.
A full beard.
Nah.
Why not?
It doesn't look good.
I've tried.
How would you know?
I've tried.
I'll show you the longest
I've gotten it. Okay. And you tell me if it's any good. I feel like I need to make it. No, you'll tell me if it's good, if it's awful. I've tried. How would you know? I've tried. I'll show you the longest I've gotten it.
Okay.
And you tell me if it's any good.
I feel like I need to make it.
No, you'll tell me if it's good, if it's awful.
No, I'm not showing you.
I'll show someone else.
No, but that's what a true friend should do.
No, you'll just let me grow a comedy beard.
You grow a beard.
No, I can't.
I can only grow a mustache.
We've talked about this.
Do Movember.
That should be yours.
I do that every month of the year.
What are your goals for the year?
Oh, you know, I'm just going to probably,
I'm going to start this new thing.
You probably haven't heard of it.
I think I'm going to start a podcast.
Oh, good.
Yeah.
You know, just a help self podcast.
A help self?
Yeah, it's a new thing.
It's not self help, but it's a new thing.
It's a new trend.
You're going to start a help yourself podcast,
and it's about snacks.
Yeah.
That's exactly it. It'll be all about
snacks. Today on the show, the KFC

You need to try Big Mac once in your life.

Okay, good luck, guys.
We're back to tie break.
Guys, all you have to do is name one of the Doctor characters on The Simpsons.

Oh, too. Too long.
Three, two, one.
Emery.

Three, two, one.
We would have accepted Dr. Hibbert, Dr. Nick Riviera, Dr. Marvin Monroe,

This is for the win.

Selena Gomez.
Oh, no.
Such a massive stab in the dark.
But, hey, I admire the stab in the dark.
Emery for the win, can you answer it?
I didn't get up quite early enough.
I turned the TV on at six.
Take a stab.
Oh, I can't think.
It's $25 each, guys.
It's our first ever drawn round.
There we go.
It's a draw.
Congratulations.
Commiserations. Because we had
no more questions left. And then we ran out of questions.
So yeah, that's tradie versus lady
back at three tomorrow.
And everyone's talking about the big
political action that Joe Biden
is taking in America today, overturning
all Trump's things that he did while
he was there. But they're missing the real story.
They're missing the fact that the wheels
of government today are turning
in favour of hot,
rockin' musical act, The Wiggles.
Hot potato, hot potato.
The wheels on the big red
car are turning. Yeah, yeah.
The wheels on the bus are going round and round.
Simon Bridges,
former
Crown Prosecutor and Leader of the
National Party,
has made it his new life mission to get all,
one, two, three, four of the Wiggles,
plus Dorothy, plus Captain Feathersword,
plus, who's the octopus?
The octopus.
Into the country.
Octopussy.
Octopussy, into the country for the Wiggles shows.
Because the Wiggles are meant to play 20 shows in New Zealand
this summer, but they forgot to book
their hotel quarantine.
Rookie era,
guys. I reckon that was Jeff's
fault.
Is Jeff still in it? Nah.
Nah, Lockie's the sleepy one now. I had a
weird, like, crush
on Captain Feathersword back in the day.
Did you? You didn't have Captain Feathersword thing? Yeah, I thought he was
quite hot. Yeah? Yeah. Was it the feathers?
I don't know. Maybe the sword.
I like
the camel.
For my fellow Wiggles fans out there.
Is that a new thing? The camel, he sings
along with Captain Featherside.
Forget his name. Featherside?
Do you just call him Featherside?
Anyway, what's the deal?
So Bridges has said that he would like whatever it takes done
to get the Wiggles into the country.
They have sold 40,000 tickets.
That's 20,000 children who are going to be disappointed.
But they forgot to book their quarantine.
But they forgot to book their quarantine.
They're saying this needs to happen.
He has disclosed a conflict of interest, Simon Bridges,
in that he has two children, one aged three,
who is desperate to go and see the Wiggles.
So you could say that he's abusing his position of power,
or you could say this is the smartest political move
that Simon Bridges has ever made.
I mean, it would make a lot of, well, is it?
Because it's going to make a lot of people who can't vote happy.
Yeah, but he's future-proofing the National Party.
I think that's what he's doing.
So he's doing the work now, the hard yards now.
Yeah, he's going to stage a political coup in 15 years' time.
Yeah, gotcha.
And those three-year-olds are going to be very pro-Simon.
They'll remember it.
Remember when Simon Bridges did us that solid?
And he got us to the Wiggles?
Although...
By that stage, Wiggles will be headlining R&V
for those kids.
I mean, that's not a bad idea, right?
No, it is, because they keep
forgetting to book their quarantine.
Hopefully we see Captain Feathersword
soon. We invited Simon on for
comment this afternoon, but
he said no thanks. Haven't heard anything
back. I think he's still at the beach.
Fair enough. He's on holiday. Actually I think he's still at the beach. Fair enough. He's on holiday.
Actually, I think he lives at the beach.
Brianne Clint.
Clint, I think I, you know how I jump on things early, you know, on trends early.
Trendsetter.
Yeah, I'm a trendsetter.
Yeah, early adopter.
I was on TikTok about 12 years ago.
Yeah, you had Crocs three years ago.
Shut up with the Crocs.
But I think I'm going to finally jump on this thing called Bitcoin.
Oh, no. I don't know if you going to finally jump on this thing called Bitcoin. Oh, no.
No, no.
I don't know if you've heard of it.
It's called Bitcoin.
Oh, don't get sucked up in this.
It's the cryptocurrency.
But it's weird.
Like, I've been reading a lot about it lately
because there's been a big boom in how much Bitcoin is worth.
Not that I would ever buy any.
This is my question I put to anyone who's thinking of buying Bitcoin.
Do you understand how it works?
No.
Then don't buy Bitcoin.
Well, I was going to buy some because I'm, you know, tech savvy.
And then I read this story and it's completely changed my mind.
So it's a story about this guy called Stefan Thomas and he's a programmer.
He's from Germany, but he lives in San Fran.
And there's this story about him because he's got Bitcoin
and he's got a Bitcoin account, but he's forgotten the password.
Oh, no.
So get this, right?
Oh, no.
No, so get this.
This is so interesting.
So if you've got a Bitcoin account, you get 10 goes to get the right password.
Yeah.
And if you don't get it in 10 goes, it completely encrypts the whole account.
Oh, my God.
Because Bitcoin only exists online.
It's a digital thing.
Yeah, it's a cryptocurrency.
Oh, no.
How much Bitcoin has he got?
The story gets worse.
So Stefan has a digital wallet containing,
so this is the one where he doesn't know the password,
containing 7,002 Bitcoins equating to roughly $236 million.
And he forgot the password.
So he's used eight guesses so far.
And he's got two left.
He's got two guesses left.
Did he have a head injury?
Like, how did he forget the password?
This is my favourite bit of the story,
because I was like,
surely you would, like, put it on something,
put it in a safe.
I understand losing your work email password,
but if I had $2 million of Bitcoin,
I'd be in that account every day.
So, right, so get this.
It says here in this article,
the password that he needs was written on a piece of paper,
which he has since lost.
Who is writing the password for an account for $236 million?
You know what this is?
This is the 2021 version of a drunk pirate burying his treasure
and then when he sobers up, forgetting where he put it.
Where did I put that treasure?
I don't know.
He should run a competition to give away one of his guesses
and someone who's like a detective will come in and figure out
and go, okay, I need to know your first pet's name,
your mum's maiden name, the type of car,
your first car that you drove.
Also, what do you use as a password for $236 million?
You know, like my mum's first name
and like my favourite number.
I ain't cutting it.
Has he tried Bitcoin 69?
Yeah, maybe.
It's done, everybody.
The Trump era is over.
I mean, unless he runs in 2024.
Surely not.
He could.
For now, it's over.
Biden's in.
Kamala's in.
The world is moving forward.
They're addressing climate change and COVID-19 as we speak.
At the inauguration, there were some big names.
J-Lo was there.
Yeah, I saw she was there.
Barack was there.
Michelle was there.
Obama, not Williams.
And to sing the national anthem, Lady Gaga was there.
The ultimate.
Before I play you her anthem,
and we are going to listen to her anthem,
we're going to respect her anthem and listen to it in full.
I want you to see what she was wearing.
Okay.
This quote from the New Zealand Herald,
making her entrance in a custom black structured fitted navy jacket
with a red silk ball gown with a large golden dove as a brooch.
The look was understated for the singer,
who famously wore a dress made of meat.
She is so smart.
Doesn't she look great?
So, like, just so intelligent and everything that she does means something.
Yes.
And I love how people are talking about, like, what this outfit represents.
So the peace dove that she has on her chest, to me,
looks a little bit like a mockingjay.
It does.
And people are saying they're like, was Lady Gaga, did Lady Gaga think she was going to
the Hunger Games?
Or is she there to storm the Capitol again for the good guys?
She also sang into a gold microphone with a gold lead.
You know, it's just a little bit extra.
And then as she got down, she thanked Biden, Kamala, and stopped specifically to fanboy over Barack Obama.
That's so cool.
Very cool, eh?
Are you ready to hear it?
Do you think Lady Gaga smashed the anthem?
Of course she did.
Okay, here is Lady Gaga performing at Joe Biden's inauguration overnight. Say, can you see by the dawn's early light
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming Whose broad
stripes and
bright stars
through the
perilous
fight
O'er the
ramparts
we watched
were so
gallantly streaming There we go, here we go. Gave proof through the night
That our flag was still there
Oh, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave And I'll know yet the way Of the land of the free
And of the home of the brave
How good is she?
I've got goosebumps everywhere.
Good start, I reckon.
What a moment.
Good start for that presidency.
Good way to kick it off.
Yeah.
Bree and Clint.
I saw this online and I was quite shocked by it too,
but everyone online is very, very confused
when a very famous person has uploaded a video of themselves talking.
Well, it was actually a live stream.
It was a live stream on Instagram and everyone was like, wait a minute.
Is that what that person sounds like?
Very confused.
Let's play the clip and then let's see if you can guess who it is.
I recorded a sick song today.
Sick song. It might seem a bit weird because I went over sick song today. Sick song.
It might seem a bit weird, like, because I went over to the computer
and looped a couple of things for, like, maybe four bars,
just to listen to that because I didn't want to play the whole s***.
That's all I have to say.
So, he's a musician.
Bring it down.
Yeah, yeah, he's a musician.
Musician.
Who is that person?
Is it Lewis Capaldi?
No. Who is it? I Is it Lewis Capaldi? No.
Who is it?
I'll give you one more guess.
Is it a member of One Direction?
No?
I don't know.
What's your last guess?
Well, I'm asking you for a clue.
Is it a member of One Direction?
I'm not giving you a clue.
Fine.
Is it Liam?
No.
Is it...
I don't know.
No, I've got no idea.
It's Zayn Malik.
Oh, it is a member of One Direction.
Yeah.
Is it because he was quite like softly spoken
and didn't talk that much in the band?
Is that why people are confused?
Well, he doesn't sound like this.
When he's talking there, he doesn't sound like that, does he?
Yeah, but no one sounds like
their accent when they sing. I think
I expected him to sound
more posh, is what it is.
And this guy's very like...
I recorded a sick song
today.
Sick song.
He kind of sounds like Robbie Williams.
I like it. I think it makes it more relatable.
Compu-ah.
I mean, he dates Gigi Hadid, for God's sake.
He needs to be relatable somewhere.
Totally.
Yeah, exactly.
Yeah, Buzzy, that's an interesting, that's a really interesting one.
Isn't that interesting?
Yeah.
I wanted to play a game this afternoon.
I don't know if it'll work, but I wanted to see if,
I want to know if people can put on a different voice
to what they actually have.
Right.
Like good enough that it can trick us into thinking it's their real voice.
Okay.
This game's twofold because it's perfect for people who can do a convincing voice
to call us.
Yeah.
It's also perfect for people who have a weird voice.
Yes, exactly.
If you naturally have a weird voice, call us and talk
and we'll try and guess whether it's your real voice
or you're doing a voice. Yeah, so we're gonna guess
real or fake voice.
No racist accents allowed. Yeah.
We've already talked about this. I think that's the only
stipulation. That's the only rule.
Yeah. Yeah, we would not be putting you there.
You can put on a voice and we'll try and guess if
it's fake or not, or you can do your real voice
and we'll try and guess if it's real or not. Yeah, you can call up just with your real voice and we can try and guess if it's fake or not. Or you can do your real voice and we'll try and guess if it's real or not.
Yeah, you can call up just with your real voice and we can try and guess.
0800 dial ZM.
Can't text us with this one.
You've got to call.
We'll play next.
Bree and Clint.
Not a huge uptake on this game that we're about to play, but that's okay.
We're easing back into the year, aren't we?
We're taking things slowly.
We'll take what we can get.
And what we can get is Trent.
The game is you call up and we need to decide whether the voice you're doing is your real voice
or you're doing a fake voice to try and trick us.
No racist accents.
No racist accents allowed.
Thank you very much.
There are, believe it or not,
there are spaces still available for this game.
So if you'd like to play, you can call 0800-
There are a couple.
Dial ZM right now.
You'll get straight through.
But let's play.
You know, we've come this far.
Let's play.
Please welcome to the show, Trent.
Oh, hey, bro.
Hey.
Oh, he's straight in.
Yeah.
How are you?
I'm good.
How are you guys?

Right.
And how old are you, Trent?
I'm 35.
What?
What, you don't believe me?
No, I don't believe you at all.
No, I don't believe that.
Okay.
I'm going to say you knocked probably about 15 years off there.
I'm going to say you're...
15?
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, okay.
You sound quite young.
I'm going to knock 20 years off it.
20 years? Yeah, he's 15. Oh, you reckon? Yeah, that's what I was going for too, yeah. Yeah. Oh, okay. You sound quite young. I'm going to knock 20 years off it. 20 years?
Yeah, he's 15.
Oh, you're...
Yeah, that's what I was going for too, yeah.
Yeah.
And it's not your real voice.
That's what we're saying.
Not my real voice?
Oh, okay.
Yeah.
That's real embarrassing for you guys, though.
Is that your real voice?
Is that your real voice?
No, that's not my real voice.
Oh!
What's your real...
Is Trent your real name?
No, I'm a girl.
I was going to say, I didn't want to say it just in case,
but I was like, Trent, you sound like a lady.
Okay, well, we got that one right.
That was pretty good.
That was pretty good, though.
What was your real name?
I'm Rachel.
Rachel, okay, Rachel.
Not bad from you.
Good work.
Let's go and give a go to Liam.
Hi, Liam. G'day, Liam. Hi. go and give a go to Liam. Hi, Liam.

Yeah, we're good.
No, we're good, Liam.
Liam, what do you do for a job?
I'm an electrician.
You sound like an electrician.
I think that's his normal voice. What do you drive, Liam? I drive an electrician. You sound like an electrician. I think that's his normal voice.
What do you drive, Liam?
I drive a beamer.
Oh, yeah. What's your
work wagon?
It's one of those can-go things.
No good on the road.
That's your real voice.
Is that your real voice?
That is
my real voice.
Yeah! And a fine That's your real voice. Is that your real voice? That is my real voice.
Yes, Liam!
And a fine voice it is, Liam.
Lovely.
Thank you very much. Are you really a sparky with a beamer?
Yes, I am.
Do you put your tools in the back of the beamer?
No, let's be real.
Tools are always in the back of beamers.
Are you single for any of the ladies?
Oh, that's quite good, actually.
I like that.
George.
Hi, George.
Oh, good afternoon. Hi. actually. I like that. George. Hi, George. Oh, good afternoon.
Hi.
Oh, okay.
Is that an Irish accent, George?
Oh, don't insult me like that.

Oh, I love Scottish accents.
Well, you're in for a treat, aren't you, lass?
Where are you calling from, George?
A car park.
Bonnie Doon.
Car park.
What do you do for a job?
Oh, I'm an administrator.
You're an administrator of what?
I hope it's real.
Oh, a timber company.
It's not real, but he is Scottish.
Nah, it's real.
Do you want to go real?
Don't ruin this fantasy for me, George.
Should we go real because you want it to be real?
Yes, I really want it to be real.
All right, George, that's your real accent.
No, it's not.
Oh!
Where are you actually from, George?
England.
I listen to all the
bunty Scottish people.
Oh, I still love
an English accent.
I'll take either or.
All right, you're the only one
who duped us, George.
Congratulations,
you win the game.
Lovely, lovely, George.
Thank you very much.
Hey, that game wasn't
a total disaster in the end,
was it?
It was pretty good.
I had fun. Maybe we'll play again or maybe we'll just forget about it. Mainly because lovely George. Thank you very much. Hey, that game wasn't a total disaster in the end, was it? It was pretty good. I had fun.
Maybe we'll play again.
Or maybe we'll just forget about it.
Mainly because of George.
Bree and Clint.
It's the return of last year's...
It's the most successful game?
I don't know.
It was pretty successful towards the end of the year, wasn't it?
Yeah, we gave away $1,000 on the last show of the year.
What's the plot?
Once upon a time, there was a girl.
She was smart. Debatatable, talented, athletic.
Not really.
Picking a movie based on just the plot line?
That she can do.
Brie and Clint's What's the Plot?
It's our movie guessing game where you take on Brie and Clint's What The Plot It's our movie guessing game where you take on Brie.
If you can get two plots correct before she does, you'll win the game.
Matt, good afternoon.
G'day, Matt.
How we doing?
Good, thank you, Matty. How are you?
Yeah, not too bad.
There's always a theme for the game, and the theme today for all of the movies is movies about cars.
Oh. Matt. for all of the movies is movies about cars.
Oh.
Matt.
Not a car guy, Matt.
Nah.
The reason I've chosen this theme is because I know
Bree's in the market
for a new car this year.
I know it's high on your list
of things to do.
Who said that?
You did.
She's talking a big game
about getting a Ford Ranger.
But I think she only wants one to piss me off because she knows I want one.
I'd probably do that too.
Okay, here we go, Matt.
Your buzzer is your name.
Okay, you get two correct.
You win the game.
Don't wait for me to finish the plot.
A $50 subcard on the line.
Movie number one.
Carol Shelby.
Brie.
Brie.
It's Ford versus Ferrari.
Far out. Watched it last week. Wow, what a ripping start to Brie. It's Ford versus Ferrari. Far out.
Watched it last week.
Wow, what a ripping start to the year.
That's correct.
Great movie.
Matt, you still with us?
I'm still with you.
Wow.
Sorry, Matt.
What era of movies do you prefer?
Oh, just anything other than cars, really.
Right, okay.
Okay, I'll give you one that's not technically about a car.
Okay.
Okay?
Well, it actually is,
but the car doesn't feature heavily.
Okay.
Jessie and Chester wake up one morning from a night of partying
and cannot remember where they parked their car.
Dude, where's my car?
Oh, my God.
She's too good.
Sorry, Matty.
Call next week when it's not about cars.
We'll have you back on.
There you go.
That's What's the Plot.
We'll play it every single week.
I didn't even get to do my Chitty Chitty Bang Bang one.
Oh, sorry.
Still got it.

The Dorm Raid movie is out today.
It's the story of the record label that bought us Savage
and the Decepticons and Addies and Aradna and more.
I've seen the movie.
I got to see it last year and it's incredible.
We're joined in studio today for launch day
by the director, Oscar Kightley.
Kia ora.
Hey, how's it going?
Thanks for having me.
Hey, thanks for coming in with your sunglasses on.
Yeah, sorry.
It's been a fun week.
Or are you just full hip hop now?
Is that what it is?
No, well, it's funny.
When you hang out with hip hop dudes,
you can do stuff like this and it doesn't look weird.
Nah.
You just kind of fall into line.
You're like, I'm with them.
Yeah.
And you're like,
oh, that's the sunglasses indoors
at all time squad.
It's an amazing story
that you've pulled together
and you've got some incredible footage
from, what, like 15 years of New Zealand music?
How long does this movie actually span?
It's quite incredible.
Well, you know,
it could have spanned
20 years. In the end, I
thought I only wanted it to be 90 minutes long.
And probably people can only concentrate
for about that long these days.
Probably about three minutes actually.
So 90 minutes is a stretch. So it's a real
commitment. And so in the end, we kind
of just focused on a particular part of the story
at the beginning, the foundation. It's the story
of Andy and Brother D starting a record label out of their story at the beginning, the foundation. It's the story of Andy and Brother D
starting a record label out of South Auckland
and nobody believing in them, really, right?
Is that a fair thing to say?
Pretty much.
And nobody generally believing in people
from that part of the world.
These guys joke, you know,
there's a South Auckland in each part of New Zealand.
Everyone knows a suburb or even in Australia
where you're from, there's probably a part of town,
you know.
People don't think much of.
Oscar, it was such a, obviously the movie is about
such a massive moment in New Zealand music.
Was there a story like during making the film
that you hadn't heard of before which just blew your mind?
All of it.
Just the whole thing?
All of it and I'll share one.
Yeah, I'd love to hear one.
So we kind of span their journey.
And as part of their journey, there's this hip-hop summit in New Zealand in 1990.
And it's the birth of hip-hop in New Zealand.
And Brother D remembers walking along and seeing this tall, skinny, barefoot Maori kid
who was like, yeah, I do breakdancing.
Brother D was like, oh, that's awesome.
Anyway, roll forward a few years later, Brother D has to go to New York to mix the record
that Mareka was just finished recording,
but because of his previous life choices,
he has issues at the border getting in.
Yeah, fair enough.
He wasn't about to get in, but, you know,
lo and behold, that barefoot Maori kid is walking up
and his name's Cliff Curtis.
No way.
And he's a big star.
And he just had
a little friendly chat
with the folks
and got Brother D in.
He used his Hollywood
star power to bluff
American customs.
What, at the border?
At the border
he got him in.
At the border.
But he kind of
smoothed the path
that got Brother D
into New York.
Now that's just one story
we had to leave out
but the stuff
that is on screen
is awesome.
Wow.
If that's the stuff
you left out
I can't wait to see what's in the actual film.
Who do you think the real hero of the movie is?
What's the bit that you, the person...
Do you know what?
I mean, Brother D and Andy are definitely the leads
and are such the principals,
but the kind of unexpected hero to me,
and I don't want to give too much away,
but is Savage.
Yeah, okay.
Has Savage got rich off TikTok yet? Do you know? Did he tell you? I'm sure. You don't want to give too much away, but is Savage. Yeah, okay. Yeah. Has Savage got rich off TikTok yet?
Do you know?
Did he tell you?
I'm sure.
You don't ask those questions.
Don't you?
You're making the documentary.
You could slide it in there
as investigative journalism.
You know,
one of the,
just,
you know,
aside from Dorn Red and hip hop
in terms of Savage,
one of the cool,
one of the best things he did
was reinvent himself
as an EDM artist
and sign for ministry
and Trump,
what was it?
Timmy Trumper. That song's insane.
Forgetting TikTok, I reckon that would have meant that his kids would have
lunch every day. And he's reinvented himself
so many times as well. He's a smart
operator and he's come from such humble
beginnings. I'm so looking forward to his folk album.
Yeah, when's that
coming out? Savage Things The Blues.
The movie is out today and i'd
strongly recommend you go and see it if you love the defiant ones um if you love new zealand music
or if you just love a really good underdog story you have to go and see the dawn raid movie it's
in cinemas today the director oscar kightley thank you very much for joining us today there we go
did you meet your partner or your
fiance or your husband or your wife
in a really unusual
circumstance? Give me an example.
Well, I heard this story
over the holidays and
quite unusual circumstances
how these two people met.
So apparently this girl,
she designs jewellery and rings
and stuff like that.
And this guy came to her and said, oh, I'm looking to get a ring made.
Right.
I want to propose.
Oh, this is already bad.
You know, that's happening.
Anyway, so she designed the ring and did a great job and he proposed
and he went off and did whatever.
And then a couple of years, I think like a year later,
turns out he's broken it off with his fiance because of whatever reason. I'm not too sure. And
then he ends up, and then him and the girl that designed the ring for his fiance end
up getting together. Whoa. Okay. Okay. Okay. Okay. But, but, but. There's no funny business
in between. No. And you have to meet people somehow, and it's a chance meeting.
But, like, really do.
And there was life that happened in between the two things happening.
But if you cut out some of the detail,
it sounds like he's left his wife for the woman who designed his wedding ring.
That's right.
But it wasn't.
But it wasn't.
It wasn't, but that's how they met.
So forever now, at a dinner party or at drinks or whatever,
when someone says, oh, how did you two meet?
She has to say, I designed his ex-wife's wedding ring.
Yes, exactly.
I think they should just say we met on Tinder.
She should say we met at work.
Yeah, but what if he's a tradie and she's...
She could say my work.
We met at my work.
Oh, right.
Gotcha, gotcha.
Or make up a story, you know.
Figure out a story that you're both comfortable with
and stick to it.
Just don't have different stories.
Yeah, because then it gets messy.
It gets really messy.
Yeah, those are bad circumstances to meet somebody under.
Yeah, it's like any time that you meet someone
through your ex or like, what else classifies this?
Divorce lawyer.
That happened on Sex and the City.
That was a story line.
Well, they got with their divorce lawyer.
Yeah, on Sex and the City, Charlotte gets divorced
and she ends up getting with her divorce lawyer
and then they get married and live happily ever after.
Yeah, but at least she's already keen for a divorce
when she goes to see the lawyer, you know?
But weird circumstance.
It'd be weird to be a divorce lawyer and go on to bars
and be like, hey, are you married?
Because I can get you out of that.
Yeah, not a good picture.
He's like, hey, can I buy you a drink?
She's like, no, sorry, I'm married.
He's like.
You know what else would be weird?
Not a problem.
Yeah.
You know what else would be a weird time to meet someone is if you were
like in a hospital and you'd had like a weird,
like an awkward surgery and the doctor hit on you.
Is that allowed?
No, 100% not allowed. Is it not allowed? No. You're allowed to hit on the doctor, but the doctor hit on you, is that allowed? No, 100% not allowed.
Is it not allowed?
No.
You're allowed to hit on the doctor, but the doctor's not.
So I am allowed?
Yeah.
But the doctor, I don't think the doctor's allowed to reciprocate.
But the doctor's not.
What if the doctor feels it?
What if the doctor's keen?
Then the doctor better get you better real fast.
And then once you're better.
And then drop you as a patient.
Okay.
I think.
So that's a thing.
Look, I didn't go to med school, so don't quote me.
I mean, you know, Grey's Anatomy,
I'm sure they all hit on each other
and hit on patients and stuff, don't they?
Oh, 800 dials at M. Did you meet
under bad, weird,
frowned upon, dubious circumstances?
Yeah. Is the origin
story of your relationship a bit, like,
off? Well, you know what is also
interesting? And you know it
is if you change the origin of your relationship story. Yeah. If you change it slightly somehow. Well, you know what is also interesting? And you know it is if you change the origin
of your relationship story. Yeah.
If you change it slightly somehow. Yeah, yeah,
yeah. You're like, oh, no, we didn't.
That's not how we met. Yeah, what bit have you had to
tweak? We met through friends.
0800 dial ZM or you can text us
on 9696.
Brianne Clint. Heard a story over the
holidays about how a woman
who was a jewellery designer
was designing a ring for this guy who was proposing to his girlfriend
and she made the ring and turns out he ended up breaking up with that woman.
This was later on.
And getting with the woman that designed their ring.
Must have been a good ring.
Yeah, must have been an amazing ring.
Imagine if he proposes to her And he uses the same ring
No
You can't
No
Well
She will know
It'd be the ultimate compliment
She'll be like
I know she'll know
It'd be the ultimate compliment
She'll go
This is the best ring in the world
I made it
For your ex-wife
We want to know
Is your relationship backstory
A bit dubious

I showed up at the lookout.
We headed off.
What?
What do you mean you showed up at the lookout?
What are you doing hanging around lookouts?
I'm just out there lurking.
No jokes.
I was taking some friends up there to show them the lookout.
They'd never seen it before and she just happened to be there with this guy.
Dan, how smooth
are your moves that you moved in
on someone having a date at a lookout?
How did you swoop in?
It helped it was a bit dark
otherwise I probably would have been intimidated
by how pretty she was, to be honest with you.
He is so smooth. No, no, no. See? That's why. That how pretty she was, to be honest with you. Oh, he is so smooth.
I see.
No, no, no.
See?
That's why.
That's why he was able to do it.
What's the lookout, Dan?
Where was it?
Minden Road in Tauranga.
Oh, I thought you were going to say Porkchop Hill in Palmerston North.
You guys still together?
We sure are.
We've actually just purchased a self-contained camper van and we're about to travel the country.
You stay away from that lookout, please, Dan.
Could you get any cooler, Dan?
That's great.
Sorry.
Let's go to Andrea.
Hi, Andrea.
Hi, Andrea.
Hi, guys.
How are you?
Good, thanks.
Did you meet your partner under a weird, unusual circumstance?
I did.
I actually was working with his step-mom
and she asked me to waitress at his 21st,
and she said there would be an extra bonus in it for me
if I broke up him and his fiance at the time.
What?
What?
Whoa.
The mum said that to you?
The step-mum, yeah.
The step-mum, right.
He didn't like her, right.
Obviously.
A week later, we got together, they broke up,
and we've been together 15 years and married for 12.
Andrea.
Holy cow.
Can I ask how much was the bonus you got?
Yeah.
Yeah.
It was him.
He was the bonus.
What a rip-off.
Yeah, what a rip-off.
You need to go and get your bills paid.
Get my money back.

It's between Humble and Take Me to the Clouds Above.
I agree.
Sorry, Katy.
I know it's been a big day for you and Eva.
You were great, but it's not going to win today.
Kendrick or Take Me to the Clouds Above?
Take Me to the Clouds Above.
Both of them would stand out.
Take Me to the Clouds Above is a dance track.
It's a vibe.
It's a dance track, isn't it?
Yeah.
Shall we start it and see how it feels?
No, you vote.
Oh, okay.
I vote Take Me to the Clouds Above.
Okay, I'll go with you.
If we'd started it, we would have played it.

Oh
Oh Singing to the clouds above.
Mixed response on the text machine, I'll give you that.
But someone texted and said,
I walked down the aisle to this banger.
That's cool, I like that.
We found the U2 part.
I'm like, why is this LMC verse U2?
It's because it's this song underneath it.
Because I was like,
I can never remember Bono singing a song
where he goes,
there's a boy I know.
He's the one I'm dreaming of.
Also Eva, who was on,
who got Katy Perry,
text us before we went to air
and she said,
guys, I'm really nervous about being on the radio.
I might SHIT myself in the car again.
I'm pretty sure this is Eva,
and her and I have been texting on the text machine.
She's the one that always texts through for Friday Oaky
and says that my singing makes her in the car.
Anyway, I met her, if it is the same one, at Bay Dreams.
Oh, did you?
Okay, all right.
It was so funny because she came up to me and she goes,
Brie, oh, my God, I'm Eva.
And I was like, oh.
She's like, I'm the one that texts in
and says I shit myself all the time.
What a thing to be known for.
I know.
I was like, oh my God, I know who you are.
Right, that's birthday banger.
We do it every single day at the same time.
We'll figure out what was 16, no, one.
We'll figure out what was number one on your 16th birthday.
We'll figure out what was number 16 when you were one.
It's our new game.
So there's a business deal about to go down.
Bree's about to make one of her signature wise investment purchases.
She's known for them.
She spent three grand on a half van,
half ute, venute. She also spent
$250 on an outdoor
projector. That's right. That one turned out okay though,
didn't it? That one turned out well and I feel like this one
is going to be my best one yet.
The new purchase is a number plate
who belongs to a man called Kieran.
Hi, Kieran. Hey guys, how are we?
Good, thank you, Kieran. Now look, this journey started
about, oh, look, I think about these things for. Now look, this journey started about, oh look, I think about these
things for a long time, so it started about three weeks
ago. And
I thought to myself, maybe I should
get a personalised plate.
And I thought, what would I really
want? Because you need to get something that you love.
And I thought, you know, as the
person who I claimed on this
show to have started the phrase
Leshkol, I wanted to get
Leshkol on a number plate.
You own that number plate, Kieran?
I do.
I have so many questions for you, Kieran.
Go ahead.
My first question, when did you have the amazing insight to purchase the number plate Leshkol?
Actually, on holiday in Australia with my girlfriend.
Okay.
And I was just scrolling through Facebook and I saw on one of those, you know, like,
let's say Facebook pages.
Yes.
Yeah, it was on one of those and it was someone had posted on it, how does no one own this
yet?
And it was the Leshko on Kiwi plate still available.
So I looked at my girlfriend while we were on holiday and said to her, you know how we're
going to go shopping tomorrow?
Yeah.
And she's like, yeah.
I'm like, you want me to spend that money on a really good investment?
And right then and there in Australia, I...
How much?
As fast as I could, we were out at dinner and I quickly jumped online.
Everyone was like, get off your phone.
So how long ago was this?
How many years are we talking?
October last year.
Got it.
2019.
And 2019, what was the market value of the Leshgo number plate?
L-E-S-H-G-O.
So I bought it from Kiwi Plates and I think it was just over a thousand bucks. Oh, what a great
deal for, you know, the amount
of attention you'll get out of it.
So we've got you on here because you're open to the
idea of parting with it at the right price.
Breeze in the market and
we'd like to open the negotiations.
Awesome. Enlighten me. Kieran,
I'd like to offer you
the exact price that
you paid for it Lesh Goal
oh
nah
I think that's the start
of that issue here guys
okay well that's my opening bit
is that a no
that's my opening bit
yeah that's a
that's a no
okay counter offer
I listed it a while ago
on Facebook
for two grand
just because
I got it for a gag
and then some people
thought I was trying to be a tryhard
so I took it off
yeah
I just thought it was one of those things
that you know but I wait wait wait a minute wait a minute Kieran because I would be getting it for a gag and then some people thought I was trying to be a tryhard so I took it off. I just thought it was one of those things that, you know, but I'm...
Wait, wait, wait a minute, Kieran, because I would be getting it for a gag, but are you
saying you copped crap for having it?
No, I think you're the right person to have it, you know?
Okay, Bree, two grand?
Two grand.
Maybe a little bit steep.
Okay.
No deal.
Counter, counter offer.
Let's go $1,500 cash. You have to counter offer a bit better. Sorry, guys. Well-counter offer. Let's go $1,500. Cash.
You have to counter-offer a bit better.
Sorry, guys.
Well, you do that.
I mean, I've come up $500.
Yeah, you come up.
Yeah, now you come down.
Well, I was thinking, I looked yesterday.
Because bear in mind, you couldn't sell it for $2,000.
That's the end of the Trade Me story.
So the right price is somewhere between $1,500 and $2,000.
Karen, where is it closer to? So I said to Bree yesterday between $1,500 and $2,000. Kieran, where is it closer to?
So I said to Bree yesterday, $1,969.
Nice.
And 69 cents.
And 69 cents.
And 69 cents, of course.
So he's come down $41.
$41 and I came up $500.
So we're getting there.
Yeah, but is that a no?
It's a no at this stage
but you know what
look we don't want to do all the negotiations on air
No we're taking this off air
No let's do the deal now
Let's do the deal
See this is where I get myself in trouble
because I get excited on the radio
and I feel like I have to buy it
You're willing to part with $1,500
you've already pledged that much
so surely you're willing to do $1,600.
$1,600, final offer.
I'll come down to $1,869.
This negotiation needs to go off here.
If you could please text us 9696,
what do you think is the right price for Bree to pay Kieran
for the Leshko number plate?
I like that.
I reckon we're going to find a deal here.
I reckon we're all leaving this negotiation in good faith.
Kieran, this is not a no.
This is not a no.
Yeah.
We'll talk after this.
Are you willing to return to the negotiating table in 24 hours?
Definitely.
Okay.
We'll have our people speak to your people then,
and we'll be in contact.
And as what we always say, Kieran, Leshko.
Bree and Clint.
Clint, you know how we obviously love to test things out
that you see on the internet on this show?
Yeah.
So, you know, because, I mean, that's our job.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
We do it so you don't have to.
Yeah, exactly.
I saw on the internet there's this trend that's happening
and it's where girls are getting their boyfriends to do something.
Right.
And I don't have a boyfriend.
You've got me.
But I've got you, my work husband.
And I thought I could do this with Clint.
I can test this out on Clint.
So essentially all they are doing is I'm going to hand you this glass of water.
Yeah.
Oh, chilled.
Yeah.
It's nice and chilled.
And essentially it's called the tampon challenge where girls are handing their boyfriends or a boy in their life a tampon.
Right.
Thank you.
Is this one of yours?
This is one of mine.
It came out of my bag.
So glad you said bag.
Do I unwrap it?
Yeah.
Okay.
Ready?
So I want you to, how do you unwrap that?
Okay, good.
You figured it out.
It had arrows.
It's a twist top.
I wouldn't have done it like that, but it had arrows.
So yeah.
A twist top.
Is that what you call them?
Yeah, a twist top.
Yeah.
All right.
One single temi.
Yeah.
Got them.
So have you held one of these before?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
You have?
Yeah.
And so I want you to pick up the glass.
I'm a very curious guy.
So.
Wait.
So have you done this before?
Well, I don't know what I'm doing.
You don't know what you're doing?
No.
So then I want you to get the glass, and this is what they're doing.
They're showing the boys in their life how much a tampon expands and how it works.
Okay.
And making them aware of the process.
Okay.
So you're about to see, we're about to put the tampon into the water.
Okay, three, two, one, in.
Whoa!
Whoa!
Instant.
Holy crap.
We need to get some of these in the studio for when we spill beers.
I mean, when we spill water.
And this has been the reaction of so many men.
Whoa!
And to be honest, that's quite a small one.
And some tampons actually go way bigger.
It's so absorbent, isn't it?
That must feel like you're about to pop.
You stick it in and it goes like that.
Look, that's not how
it works. But essentially
when... What do you mean it's not how it works?
Because I mean, I don't have a glass of water up
my hoo-ha. Oh, they don't instantly go
that big? No. Do they all come out
this big? No.
Because I mean, they don't absorb a
whole glass of water. For the glass of water for the guys listening for
the guys listening yeah because it's quite visual i'll tell you it's gone at least double the size
probably triple yeah i'm gonna wring it out i want you to hear how much water went into this
thing have a listen i'm gonna turn this up okay here it is here it is i don't know if that was
very obvious but it feels like quite a lot of water to me.
They seem reusable.
Hang on, let's dunk it in again.
No, they are not reusable.
Don't do that.
And don't do that.
I wanted to do this today to make you aware of the next time you annoy your girlfriend
when it is that time of the month, remember how pissed off she would be
because she's got something like
that that she's dealing with.
Okay?
So be nice and be respectful.
How did you know I had a girlfriend?
Bree and I have been talking about this a bit this week, actually, about how much someone's
car says about them, like their personality type.
Yeah, it's kind of like dogs.
You know how people say everyone's dog kind of looks like their personality type yeah it's kind of like dogs you know how people say um everyone's
dog kind of looks like their owner yeah yeah it's kind of like everyone's car suits their owner yeah
and you know you know wow unless you feel like you've outgrown your car or you were given your
car by someone yeah but i also think that deep down in there somewhere that says something about
you too like there's something about your personality in whatever you drive that's why i
think this list is interesting it's the list of the most popular cars by country.
So what is the car that sums up an entire country, if you know what I mean?
Right, yep.
What's the stereotypical car that goes with the country?
If your country was a car, what would it be?
And this is based on sales, so I mean it's fairly accurate.
We're going to start with your home country, Australia. What
do you think the highest selling car
in Australia is? What's Australia's
car? It's got to be the Holden Commodore.
The Holden Commodore. It's iconic. Yeah.
Incorrect.
Ford Falcon. The Holden Commodore and the Ford Falcon
have both been discontinued and
are no longer being manufactured. Well, that'll
always be the Aussie car to me, the
Holden Commodore. No, the 2021 Car of Australia, Toyota Hilux.
Oh, yeah.
That's about right.
Everyone's moving to utes.
Yeah, everyone's got to get on that ute buzz.
Let's race through some.
Argentina, what's the national car of Argentina?
Ooh.
Well, if I know Argentina.
It's got to pick up a lot of steak and red wine.
Okay.
I would have no idea.
Toyota Hilux.
Is it?
Yeah.
What is the national car of America?
What is an American car?
What is the highest selling car in America?
The Ford F-250.
Yeah, the Ford F-150.
I'll give you that.
Okay.
That's about right.
Slightly smaller, but the Ford F-150 is basically a giant Toyota Hilux.
It's huge.
It's huge.
It's massive.
Okay, let's go.
It's got like four wheels at the back.
Yeah, yeah.
Oh, then it might be the Ford F350 has the extra wheels.
I get them all mixed up.
I mean, I love them all.
I love the whole range.
What's the national car of South Africa?
Something, it'd be a ute.
Yeah, it's a ute. Toyota Hilux? Toyota Hilux. Oh my God. What's the national car of South Africa? It'd be a Ute. Yeah, it's a Ute.
Toyota Hilux?
Toyota Hilux.
Oh my God.
What's the national
car of Italy, your
other home country?
Is it a Fiat?
It is a Fiat.
Is it?
Yeah, I won't bother
getting you to guess
the actual Fiat.
I'm going pretty well
with this.
It's a Fiat Panda,
yeah.
Okay.
That's a pretty good
guess from me.
You won't get this one
because I've never
seen this car before.
What's the national
car of Japan?
National car of Japan.
Bear in mind, whatever this is, this is the car that we're all going to be driving in five years.
Right.
Once they're done with it and we import them second hand.
We get all the, yeah.
Have we heard of it?
Nah.
It's a Honda Inbox.
Oh, is that like one of those boxy cars?
Oh, no.
Yeah, like one of the ones that's like the Cube.
Did you guys ever get the Cube?
Yes, the Cube's a great car.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay.
We'll go to the UK.
What's the national car of the UK?
The black taxi.
No, it's not a black taxi.
It's a Ford Fiesta.
Ford Fiesta?
Yeah.
They froth a Ford Fiesta over there.
The boy racers have got them.
The grandmas have got them. The tradies have got them as their weekend cars. They love a Ford Fiesta. Why a Ford Fiesta over there. The boy racers have got them. The grandmas have got them.
The tradies have got them as their weekend cars.
They love a Ford Fiesta.
Why a Ford Fiesta?
Dunno, dunno.
Because it's just a party.
Yeah.
The last country, these are the biggest selling cars in each country
and essentially the national car, I guess.
The only one we haven't done is New Zealand.
What is the national car of New Zealand?
What's the easiest car to hotbox?
That'd be the Toyota Inbox.
Hilux.
Yeah.
Or the Toyota Hilux.
Yeah, yeah, Toyota Hilux.
Are you going to lock in Hilux?
I'm going to lock it in.
No.
It's a Ford Ranger.
Jeez.
Of course it's a Ford Ranger.
Every man in New Zealand drives a Ford Ranger
So every country nearly has a ute as their most popular car
Yeah, we love utes
Maybe I should get on that train, buy a Ford Ranger and make you jealous
