The ZM Podcast Network. This conversation is the podcast. Mate, you don't know what you're talking about. Welcome to the podcast, Brianne Clint. Team update for you. Everyone's here except Claudia, and we have Celia filling in. Hello. Which sounds very similar to Claudia, so that's great.

Celia, Claudia. I've been calling her Claudia all day. It's terrible. That's rude. I know it's rude. That's the second most rude thing you've said today. The first was Brad Pitt. Ella, come here and look at this photo on my laptop.

Come here. Ella said, because Brie goes, I think Chris Hemsworth might be more attractive than Brad Pitt. And you kind of rescinded that a bit. And then I went, no, he's the same. But Ella chimed in and said, he is. Brad Pitt. You need to talk on a microphone so we can hear you. He is. Brad Pitt. Blah.

You need to talk on a microphone so we can hear you. Oh, come on. He's a good looking man. Lovely, but no thanks. Did you show a young Brad Pitt picture? What about this one? Show, yeah. Right, okay.

I like the hair, but he's just another nice looking guy he's also got a good personality if you've seen good brad well not to be fit not according to angelina jolie to be honest well that's near that's not great yeah oh okay all right well there's not as much meat in that as possible i thought there was um celia do you have anything you want to talk about i um that's not as much meat in that as I thought there was. Celia, do you have anything you want to talk about? That's not on the Brad Pitt topic because I also don't find Brad Pitt attractive. What the? Why? You should have been chiming in. My favourite was before the show, Clint asked all of us, Machine Gun Kelly or Ed Sheeran.

Crikey. I think that's a nice choice. I think that shows, like... Do you know where it came from? Why? I gave my wife the choice The ultimatum This morning of

The same two? No Who? It's not interesting enough to me Who? Ekansu Or Dua Lipa Oh that's a good one

Happy Monday And thank you to everyone in Hamilton that came down, sang some songs at the bank on Friday. That's right. Everyone in Hamilton came down. I'm still dusty. I appreciate all the shots that were bought for me. But I can't do shots like I used to, Clint, apparently. There's a bit of

Dutch courage going around in the event. It was so much fun. Shout out to Levi, our champion, who took out the Friday Oaky event and everybody who got up and gave it a good crack. Do we have some audio of Levi? We can get some audio of Levi. There's a little bit of video from his performance that we'll get for later in the show. Yeah,

he bought the house down and the encore was definitely worth it. It was. I felt like I'd paid $150 and I went to a concert and I was seeing Levi perform. $150 for Levi? Yeah.

I would have. It was that good. $150, you could see the killers tonight. Well, you can't. It's sold out, but you know. What about the intimate gig that's going down afterwards at midnight? If you've got the stamina for a midnight gig on a Monday,

get amongst. Go you. Fletch is going. I know. He has to be at work at 5 o'clock in the morning. That's a once-in-a-lifetime gig, and that's one of his favourite bands, though, so I get it. You roll through, eh?

You roll on, yeah. If that gig finishes at... Oh, you don't go to sleep. Two? Is he going to go home and have a sleep for two hours? Yeah, don't go to sleep, Fletch. Oh, I'll probably take the two hours. We'll come and sleep on that new beanbag we've got here at ZM. So comfy. Today on the show, we will be playing

Black Friday Jinx later in the show thanks to The Warehouse and their Black Friday sales. We've got some great prizes up for grabs after Birthday Banger this afternoon. Yeah, that's going to be massive. We're going to play that all week, all thanks to our mates at The Warehouse. But let's kick off the show with Tradie versus Lady. Bree and Clint.

Bree and Clint. Tradie versus Lady. All right, here we go. The update, the scores for the year. The Tradies on 105, the ladies on 83. Let's meet our lady first. She's phoning in from the Garden City in Christchurch. She's 26 years old, and her first wedding anniversary was on over the weekend.

Welcome to the show, Laura. G'day, Laura. How are you, mate? What's your partner's name? Hayden. What's the traditional gift for a first wedding anniversary? Did you look it up? Paper.

Paper. So did you give each other cash money? No, not today. Well, our money's plastic now. What other good paper things could you get? Ooh. You can roll something. All right, Laura, wait there.

You're taking on our tradie today, Thar20. They're also from Christchurch. They're a basketball coach. Welcome to the show, Jessie. G'day, Jessie. How's it going? What position do you play in basketball? Oh, shooting guard.

Oh, yeah, nice. Nice. Make the magic happen. Okay, Jessie, your buzzer is going to be tradie. Laura, your buzzer is lady. First to three correct answers gets 50 bucks cash from KFC. Good luck to both of you. Here we go.

Here we go, guys. Question number one. Massive drama around the ticket sales for the latest Taylor Swift concert. Many are calling out Ticketmaster as millions miss out on tickets. What is Taylor Swift's favourite number? Is it 7, 13 or 21? Lady? Laura.

Is it 13? It is 13. I'm lucky for some, but not Taylor Swift, apparently. Question number two, one to the ladies. New Zealanders are one of the world's largest consumers of ice cream. How many litres on average does each person consume in a year? Is it 6 litres, 12 litres or 22 litres? Lady.

Jessie. I was going to say just. Just. Jessie? Six. No. That's incorrect, Laura. Is it 12 or 22?

12. No. You're looking for 22 litres per year. Are you eating 22 litres of ice cream a year? Oh, depends when I... I give it a go. Yeah, yeah, yeah. If I can get to Duck Island as often as I can, I would.

It means you can consume 21 litres of ice cream a year as a New Zealander and still be below average, you know? You can feel good about your 21 litres. So when you want to have that snack, just think of those averages. Question number three, still one to the ladies. The All Blacks played their last match of the year on the weekend against England. Who won?

Lady. Yes, Laura. It was a draw. Well done. That was a trick question. Nice, Laura. On fire. Two to the ladies. You need this one here, Jessie, to stop her. Question number four. Buzz in when you can tell me who sings this song. So they say, dance for me, dance for me, dance for me.

Ready? Yes, Jessie. Dance Monkey? Dance Monkey is the name of the song, unfortunately. Do you want to have a guess at the artist, Laura? I don't know. Oh, I know, I know. It's a Tony Danai.

Just come to you? Well done. Nice work, Laura. On the ball for a Monday. 50 bucks coming your way, thanks to KFC. Thank you. Bree and Clint. Clint, a woman has said she feels devastated,

but she has completely ruined her own engagement. How? So this is what happened. She said no. She said absolutely not. No, but she meant yes. She went into her and her boyfriend's bedroom And she was looking for a pair of socks

And she said that she likes to wear his socks more than her own socks So she was in his sock drawer And she came across an engagement ring in the sock drawer And she said she tried to not look at what was in the box, but she was too curious, and then she was devastated when she opened it and realised she'd ruined her own engagement. Jeez, she was devastated when she found what she knew she was going to find.

Well, she wasn't looking for it. That's what she says. Let's give her the benefit of the doubt. No, let's not give her the benefit of the doubt for a second, and then we take, let's give her the benefit of the doubt. No, let's not give her the benefit of the doubt for a second and then we can go back to giving her the benefit of the doubt. She likes to wear her boyfriend's socks. Most, most girlfriends do, yeah. Really? Yeah, they're

cozier. Really? Right, and she didn't want a pair of socks from the top of the drawer. She wanted a pair that was right down the back. Well, maybe he didn't. A pair that she'd never found before. She wanted to go digging all the way to the back of the drawer. I'm not, I'm not. Maybe he didn't hide it that well. No. Okay.

And if you know that your girlfriend wears your socks, which he would know, why put the ring in the sock drawer? That's what I'm saying, Brie. As a man who's had to hide an engagement ring before... Where'd you hide it? Inside a coat, inside a sock, at the back of the wardrobe. See? See?

That's a good hiding spot. Yeah. Your wife's never going to go, oh, I might get the pair of socks that Clint's hidden in the jacket in the back of the closet. What I'm trying to say, Bree, is if he knew that his partner liked to wear his socks, there's no way he'd put it in the sock drawer.

She's trying to cover her tracks by saying, I've liked to wear your socks for ages. Well, let's hear her out. She also said this. She said she feels really bad because she actually loves surprises. She's someone who actually really likes a surprise. And she wasn't expecting an engagement at all. She said it's not like they've been dating for years and years and years.

Oh, okay. So she wasn't expecting it. It was really unexpected is what she says. But now she's asking, does she keep it a secret and pretend that she doesn't know when he proposes or does she tell him? Oh, okay. Do you want to, my opinion is. Don't tell him.

Don't tell him. Don't tell him. Tell him after, but don't tell him before. Don't even tell him after. Why? You can tell him after. It'll be a funny story afterwards. But let him go because he will have this all planned out in his head.

And he'll be so stressed about it. That's a white lie that I think is fine to keep. And then afterwards you can tell him. You could tell him on your first anniversary. You know, you could... What a nice surprise. Well, we'll be by then because it doesn't matter because the pressure is off by then, you know?

Yeah. Funny story, I actually found the ring. You know? You keep it a secret. If you do it now, you'll blow everything. You're like, stop hiding things in your sock drawer. I also found some other stuff. We need to have a conversation about lying to each other

because you've been lying to me this whole time. I found a few things in there. I thought we could ask people, has this happened to them? Have you ruined the surprise? Yeah, did you find the ring? It could be the ring or it could be a surprise birthday party. Oh, yeah, okay. It could be any type of surprise, but like a big surprise.

And did you ruin it? Yeah, yeah. Might have been by accident. Yeah. Might have been on purpose. It might be because you can't help yourself. Exactly. Like this lady.

Benefit of the doubt. She had to know. Curiosity got the better of her and she had to know. I'm telling you. I'm telling you. Well, it doesn't matter now. She knows. Oh, $800.

Did you ruin the surprise? We'd like to hear from you. You can text us on 9696 as well. Brianne Clint. Did you ruin the surprise? A woman said she was looking for a pair of her boyfriend's socks to put on and she found an engagement ring. Yeah, she needs to hold on to that secret.

Yeah, don't be telling anyone. That's her burden to bear. What her partner doesn't know won't hurt him in that situation. Tell him after. Tell him in your wedding speech. You know, it'll be a funny joke then. If you plan to say yes. I don't agree with that advice.

Okay, let me ask you another question. Let me ask you another question. What if she's planning on saying no? Does she, she's got to, don't let him propose, right? Well, I think clearly by how she's written this. No, I know, but hypothetically, if she. You hide the ring. Buys you some time.

Stage a burglary. Buys some time. Yeah, right. You know? We've asked you on 0800DIALZM, have you ruined the surprise? Maybe you found the ring. Raquel called up. Hi, Raquel.

Hi, Raquel. Hey, guys. How you doing? What was the surprise that you ruined, Raquel? Also my engagement ring. What did you do? Did you find it? I found it.

We had been together for about six years, ring. What did you do? Did you find it? I found it. We had been together for about six years and I was obviously very hopeful for an engagement. And he had this courier post bag just rolled up on his nightstand for a while and I curiosity got the better of me and I was

like, what is in this courier post bag? And yeah, I opened it up. I like it. He had it hiding in plain sight. That's his own fault. That's his own fault. So Raquel, you can actually answer the question for us.

Have you ever told him that you found the ring? No, I don't know. I haven't. You still haven't told him? Don't tell him, Raquel. He doesn't need to know. He doesn't need to know. He doesn't need to know. We'll let him think of his little secret.

Hang on, hang on. Has he proposed yet? Yes, I now have my ring. And are you married? We get married in March. Yeah, I reckon you can tell him after that. I reckon you're good. Yeah.

I think it's funny. I think it adds a layer to the story. I think it's fun. Die with the lie, Raquel. Someone texts through and they said, I proposed to my at-the-time boyfriend when we were on holiday a couple of years ago and my co-worker ruined the surprise for him by messaging me about it whilst I was driving. He read out the message. Apple CarPlay.

Oh, he told me that the surprise was ruined after I did it, but it was really funny because we had gone out for dinner the night before and the whole time he was terrified that I was going to do it there in front of everyone. So you let the car entertainment system do it for you. Remember they had that problem when, I don't know if it still does it, but Apple CarPlay used to automatically read out your messages. So bad. As soon as they came through.

Remember we were in Dean McCarthy's BMW in Los Angeles that time and he had to unplug it because all his Grindr messages were getting read out to us. We were like, I don't know if we need to know these things, Dean. Alicia's here. Hi, Alicia. Hi, Alicia. Hi. Did you ruin the surprise?

Yeah, well, kind of. Well, I had a bit of help from a friend. Okay. What went down, Alicia? So my fiancé had planned a surprise 30th birthday for me. Nice. And I had caught up with this friend, and she had accidentally blurted it out to me that he was planning the surprise.

How do you accidentally blurt that out when you're invited to a surprise party? Well, she didn't know that it was a surprise. Right. She had just known that he was doing a birthday party for me. That does happen quite often where, you know, loss of communication. Alicia, do you think it was his fault for not communicating the importance of the surprise enough? I think so. Oh, okay. He's like, that should be the top line of that invitation.

Thanks, Alicia. Someone texted through and they said, I found an engagement ring in my boyfriend's drawer. Turns out that he'd proposed to someone years ago and it was hers. Scandal. Imagine if you found that. You thought it was for you? You thought it was for you?

You waited like two years? You're like, what the hell is he doing? When is he going to bloody? And then one time you get drunk and then you thought it was for you. You thought it was for you. You waited like two years. You're like, what the hell is he doing? When is he going to bloody? And then one time you get drunk and you're like, when are you going to give me that ring? And he's like, oh my God, that's not even for you. And then he makes it worse. He's like, that ring's not for you.

And you're like, who's it for? Who is she? Finally, Anonymous, did you ruin the surprise or was it ruined for you? Ruined for me? Go on, it happens. So I was seen at work and I got a Snapchat from my partner and it was a photo of the engagement ring.

It was meant to go to his friend. No! But he was thinking of you because it was for you. Oh, and imagine what Snapchat he sent to his friend. It was probably the one that was meant for you. A DP. The friend would have been very shocked. Snapchat he sent to his friend. It was probably the one that was meant for you. A DP. The friend would have been very shocked.

Anonymous, did you for a second think that you were getting a Snapchat proposal, aka the least romantic proposal of all time? A little bit, yeah. Oh, Anonymous, you poor thing. Can you imagine the dread he would have felt when he realized... You just ring her and you go, don't open that, don't open that, don't open that, don't open that, which just makes you want to open it more. She's like, too late.

I've opened it. It's one of the biggest stories in entertainment at the moment. Ticketmasters being absolutely dragged because, well, to be honest, there's so much going on in the story and the best person to get the details from is the biggest Swifty,

not only at ZM, but in the country. Please welcome to the show, Megan Sager. G'day, mate. Hello. That's quite a big claim, biggest Swifty in the country. Are you not? I'll take it. I'll take it for sure. I think you might be. This has been a hell week for you as a Swifty, hasn't it? Yeah, you're kind of getting me to relive some trauma. I saw her over the

weekend. You saw me at my lowest. It wasn't good and I really felt for you because a lot of people around the world are feeling the same way that you're feeling. Yeah. So millions of people try and buy tickets to the Errors Tour, the new Taylor Swift tour and Ticketmaster promises

Taylor Swift they can handle the volume, but the website just shits the bed, right? Yeah, well, essentially they just sent out too many codes to too many people. I didn't even get a code, for starters. Right. So these codes, these are the ones they sent out to a certain

amount of big fans. For the pre-sale. For the pre-sale, so that the big Taylor Swift fans, the OGs can buy tickets before the actual real. Yes, that's essentially what they were promising. Yeah, right. They sent them out to too many people and people who weren't even fans and it was just super messy.

And I think on the actual day they had sent out 1.5 million codes but 14 million people were on the website. Whoa! So how was 14 million people? You told me that you feel like, because obviously this is the American League of the Tour, that there's scalpers and people who do this professionally

where they buy all these tickets and then resell them. Yeah. They somehow got through on that website. Yeah, they definitely did. And you could buy a max of six tickets. Yeah. So there's just so many out for resale for thousands of dollars. There are resale tickets from scalpers,

because so few people manage to get tickets to the show, for $42,000. I saw one literally just before, $95,000. Surely no one's going to pay that. There's no one out there who's going to pay $95,000 to go to a Taylor Swift show. Megan and her friends told me they were thinking about buying a $20,000 box.

You need help. You need... You thought about it, didn't you? This is the power of Taylor Swift. So Live Nation, the company that owns Ticketmaster, they do, I think it's something crazy, like 70% of the world's live events. So they're a massive company.

A lot, massive. This Taylor Swift drama and the crash that has happened because of it has shaved $2 billion off Live Nation's share price. Wow. Isn't that crazy? And that's the power of messing with Swifties? Absolutely.

They're powerful, I tell you. Megan, can you tell us a bit about... Look what they did to Jake Gyllenhaal. Yeah. Can you tell us a bit about Taylor Swift and where she's sitting in all of this? Because she made a statement on her Instagram over the weekend. Yeah, she did. So she usually does like everything she can through her own management,

but purely for this reason. So I wouldn't be surprised if she made her own bloody ticketing company. You reckon that's the next thing for Taylor Swift? Because she said she's devastated by this, didn't she? Yeah. I think Swift Ticks actually already exists.

I think that is a website. Yeah. Yeah, right. Okay. I almost recited her whole statement, but I won't read it out to you. No, go on. Tell us what you remember.

Do you remember any of it? And to those of you who didn't get tickets, I hope I can see you soon. That was to me personally, I think. And you think that you're not the biggest Swifty in the country? Come on. All right. We'll wait for an update. To be honest, we're all just waiting for an update on New Zealand tour. Whether I get tickets.

Well, yeah, and whether you buy that $20,000 box for the American tour. I'm invested. I need to know what's happening. That's four hours of my life I'll never get back. Bree and Clint. Yesterday, Clint ventured out of my house to the shops. Don't know why. Wanted to see if there was any sales, maybe early sales for Black Friday.

The shops. I thought you meant the shops on your corner where, you know, that really good pie shop is. Oh, I go there every day. Shout out to Muzza's Pies. Muzza's Pies. And our dairy. I visit there most days.

But no, the shopping centre. Oh, okay. Where the clothes shops are to do a bit of shopping. Is it mental there yet? It's crazy. Is it? Already. Christmas-ness.

Just chaos. Isn't that weird, eh? Absolute chaos. Yeah. But I wanted to do a bit of Christmas shopping, kick around the shops for a bit. I was actually in this shop, though, where I think this backhanded compliment took place. Okay. And a woman approached me, and we've locked eyes, and she went,

Oh, my God, I know you. You're that girl from that TV show. Oh, okay. She didn't know my name, but she knew. You're that girl. Yeah, and she said, Celebrity Treasure Island. I said, Yes from that TV show. Oh, okay. She didn't know my name but she knew. You're that girl. Yeah, and she said Celebrity Treasure Island. I said, yes, that's me. She goes, she stands back.

I'm not joking. She came up to me, said that, and then she stands back and she goes, oh, my God, you look so much younger in real life. She goes, and I'm not joking when I say she said about five or six times, God, you look younger in real life. Just a hammer at home a little bit further. And then she continued to go, yeah, it's something. They just, you look old on TV, which I don't think is a backhanded compliment.

I just think that's flat out, you know. A statement. A statement. Yeah. Okay, so you want to know from me whether that is a backhanded compliment because I'm not 100% convinced that it is. I think it could just be a compliment because you can't, hear me out, hear me out. Okay.

You can't control how you look on TV. It's got nothing to do with you what sort of lighting or filters or makeup they use. And this is not me saying you look old or bad on TV. It's not. It's not. I promise. So is it a backhanded compliment? Wait, no, wait.

Were you going to say something there? No, I wasn't. Are you saying I... I was saying you have no control over that. You... Yeah. Is it a backhanded compliment or am I... I'm saying you have no control over that. You... Yeah. Is it a backhanded compliment or am I just digging myself a massive... Producers.

...hole that I can't get out of in this situation? I feel like you're digging... You know, I'm just saying, is there anything... I guess it is a backhanded... Maybe I'm going too deep. Maybe you're thinking about it too much. You're thinking about it more than me. Yeah.

I just think maybe it could just be a compliment is what I'm saying. It could just be. Oh, it didn't feel like that though. Right, okay. No, no, all right. Let's go for a second and third opinion. No, that's definitely a slap in the face.

In the face? In the face. Right in the face. Yes. It's like saying, if you reverse it, saying I'm old. You're old on TV. You look old on TV.

It's just, it's a bit rude. I agree. Yeah, I think it's just an insult to be honest. No offence, but you know. Not even a backhanded compliment. You see what I'm trying to say is if she had said to you, oh my god, you look so young for your age, that's a backhanded

compliment. No, she even went further and said, she goes, I thought you were way older, but now seeing you in person, you look so much younger. How old are you? True, true, true. I guess if somebody came up to somebody and said, oh my God, you're so much thinner than you are on TV.

Oh, yeah. And it is. It is. Okay, yeah, it is. Yeah. Alright, yeah. Yeah, backhanded compliment. Which, I mean, to be honest, she was lovely. She was really, really nice. And I don't think people ever mean it when they're giving you a backhanded compliment. I mean, to be honest, she was lovely. She was really, really nice. And I don't think people ever mean it when they're giving a backhanded compliment. No. But, yeah, I was like, is that?

Yes, Producer Ella, what were you going to say? Maybe, I'm trying to see it from her point of view, and maybe she watches the show, but, you know, you never really take people in because it's, like, far away on your TV. You're not up close. And in real life, she was just like, oh, wow, you're, like, real. And maybe it just connected that way, but still not great. No, I think she just thought I looked old on TV.

I thought we could ask people. Were you wearing sunscreen on Slippery Treasure Island? I'm just checking. Mate, you are digging a deep hole. I'm telling you. Because if there's another season, it could be... No, you were digging. Could be a good op. You were digging.

Option S, be a 50, baby. 0800, I'm going to move on. 0800 dial ZM. Have you been in this situation where someone's given you a backhanded compliment and you're like, you think to yourself, I don't think that was really a compliment. That was you a backhanded compliment and you're like, you think to yourself, I don't think that was really a compliment. That was definitely a backhanded compliment. I think it can happen in families quite a lot and often around Christmas time from aunts

and uncles who might not see you that often. God, your hair's looking nice. So much nicer than when you had it dyed black. It's looking way better. You've lost some weight. Jeez, last Christmas. That's such a bad one. That's such a bad one. 0800 dials

at M. You can also text them into 9696. We can read these out. We want to hear your backhanded compliments that you've received. The backhanded compliment. Have you received one? We all have. I reckon some people pride themselves on a backhanded compliment,

like giving one. I feel like it's the most pass-ag. It is. You know what I mean? And if you're giving someone a backhanded compliment on purpose, your intention is to insult them. Oh, that's even worse. Sometimes it's not people's intention.

But you just throw the compliment in there just so you can get away with it. If they fire up, you go, oh, sorry, sorry, I was trying to give you a compliment. I was trying to say something nice. I won't bother next time. Yeah, I meant it in a nice way. I met a lovely lady and I don't think she intended to give me a backhanded compliment. But she said, God, she goes, God, you look so young in real life. You look so much older on TV.

I didn't realise how young you were. So we want to hear your backhanded compliments and whether you're over it yet because, I mean, Brie clearly is. I am totally, totally, yeah, 100%. Holly's called up. Hi, Holly. Hi, Holly. How you going?

Hey, guys, how you going? We're good. Your partner gave you a backhanded compliment. Yeah, yeah. When we first got together, we were going out for like a dinner with my family and I got all dressed up and I said to him, I was like, babe, do you think my outfit is all right? And he replied with, well, I've seen worse.

I don't even know if that's a backhanded compliment. I feel like that's just straight, like, just nasty. That's just poor boyfriending, by the way. The answer is you look great. Babe, you look stunning. Fantastic. You look amazing. Don't change. You look great. Because I,

you girls should correct me if I'm wrong. I think very few girls actually want their outfit critiqued once it's on. I feel like they just want the tyres pumped up a bit. Just want the reassurance. They just want a bit of confidence, right Holly? Yeah, yeah, definitely. He went on to say, no, it's not what I meant, it's not what I meant, so from now on

nothing's worse, it's just good. Oh, that's not even good either, to say, oh yeah, it looks good. Someone texted and they said, somebody said to me, oh my god, you have lost so much weight, you were so big before. I hadn't lost any weight. I was totally the same size.

This one actually makes me real angry. Don't comment. Don't comment on anyone's weight. It's none of your business. Just stop commenting and talking about people's weights. What about this one here? This one. My mother-in-law told her daughter,

I'm glad you're not wearing as much makeup anymore. Your skin looks so much better. You went through a real orange phase. That one's so bad. This one is also not ideal. They said, G'day, I'm in a same-sex relationship. My partner was wearing a dress and a friend said, You look nice. You actually look quite feminine. Ouch. My partner does not wear dresses very often

but is very much a woman, not a compliment. I'm laughing because that is such a stupid thing to say. That's such a dumb thing to say. Like so dumb. Nadia's here. Hi, Nadia. Hi, Nadia.

How are you guys? We're good. Thank you. Tell us, Nadia. Hi, Nadia. How are you guys? We're good, thank you. Tell us, Nadia, what was the backhanded compliment you received? Oh, I was on the netball court one day and running around like I normally do, and the young little sprocket that was against me turned around and said, geez, you can move for an old lady. Oh, Nadia, that's so rough. What did you say to that, Nadia?

How do you reply to something like that? Well, first of all, I think my eyes said a lot because she did apologise immediately going, gosh, that didn't come out well. And I said, no, it didn't, sweetheart. But I do have underwear that's older than you, so it's okay. Nadia, you just teach her a lesson on the netball court, you know? Run circles around it.

Well, I was social grade. So most of us that play social grade are, you grade are ex-players back in the day. So you get the young ones coming through, and I think they're quite shocked that we can actually still move even though we're in our 40s. We just haven't had any replacements and all sorts of things. But we can still move. But, yeah, it was a bit of a backhanded comment.

100% it was. Plus, you could probably drink her under the table, right, Nadia? Oh, easily. I live in Malta. Totally. You teach her a few lessons, Nadia. Keep, you could probably drink her under the table right, Nadia? Oh, easily. I'd have been mulled up. Totally. You teach her a few lessons, Nadia. Keep doing you, babe. Bree and Clint. Oh yeah, shout out Lynette. Shout out Lynette. She texts us wanting to hear Mitch James

all the time. So there's your Mitch James. That one's for you, Lynette. I've got a surprise for you. Now look, normally I do like surprises, but when you work in radio, you have to be cautious. So I'm excited, but cautious. Last week we talked about this. There's actually a video that went up on our social media last night

where you and I talked about Shakti mats. Shakti mats. As the owner of a Shakti mat, for those who don't know, what is a Shakti mat? It's basically a mat that has little tiny points, sharp points

on it. Should be called a Sharpti mat, shouldn't it? Yeah, should be. That would make more sense. That was quick. People use it for pressure point stuff. They lie on them. Relaxing. Yeah, it's meant to be quite relaxing. It is not relaxing at all. No, it is. You haven't been on one long enough.

They say you've got to break through the pain barrier to get to the relaxation. How long does it take? I don't know, but we talked to somebody on the show last week who stands on one to work. They have like a stand-up desk and they stand on a Shark D-mat. I'm really not in the mood for this. It's a Monday. I've had...

I need you to remove your footwear. I'm going to remove my footwear as well. Lucky you wore Birkenstocks. It's like you knew we were going to do this today. And I've got a Shark D-mat each for us. You don't need your chair. Okay. I've got two Shark D-mats.

Would you like black or green? Which ones? Do they come in like a softer version? They're the same. Are they? You can have green, okay? You can have green and I'll have black. Oh, ow!

It's so sharp. Shpree hasn't even stood on it yet. That was her hand. So what you and I are going to do is we're going to be brave. I don't think I can. We're going to be brave. We're going to stand on this. My feet are real delicate.

They're real sensitive. We've got to have something to take our mind off it, though. So I thought this afternoon you and I could sing Shakira on a Shakti mat. How does that sound? That's a good idea, right? That's good. So, Ella's going to count us down, and we're both going to step onto the Shakti mat, and then we're going to give this Shakira classic. Do I have to stand on it

when you stand on it, or just for my lyrics? No, we've got to stand on it at the same time. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The whole time. And I'll stay on it for your lyrics, and you stay on it for my lyrics. Just breathe, Bree, you'll be fine. Okay. Count us down, Ella. This is...

Three, two, one. This is Shakira on a shark demand. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Do it. Oh, my God. Ah.

Ah. Ah. Ah. Ladies up in here tonight. Ladies up in here tonight. No fighting. No fighting. We got the refugees.

We got the refugees. No fighting. Refugees. Shakira, Shakira. You make a man want to speak Spanish. Come on, Ciara. Shakira, Shakira, you're up. Oh, baby, when you talk like that, you make a woman go mad. So be wise and keep on reading the signs of your body. I'm on tonight.

Your hips don't line. It's time to feel it right. All the traction. All the tension. This sucks. All right, call it off. Can we get off? Getting off is worse.

I don't know how to get off. Oh, getting off is so much worse. You guys look so silly. Oh, my gosh. Are you okay? Do you feel relaxed? I'm exhausted. Have a look at the bottom of my feet.

You know you've got trypophobia. Check that out. Where does it hurt the most for you? Like the ball and the heels? The heel. Yeah. It's the heel. And like my

third toe. I have no idea what about that is meant to be relaxing. Give it a go. I don't. For 20 minutes. 20 minutes?

20 minutes. You have to get through the pain bit. What, do you lay on that? Like on your back? Yes. Or you put it on your head and it helps grow your hair.

Oh no, that's too far. Alright. Never mind. That was not a good surprise. Bree and Clint. Time for a round of Guess That Voice. It's an easy game most of the time where all you have to do is tell us who the famous celebrity is without seeing them and just hearing them.

Just their voice. Just their voice. Some people have a knack for this. Some people are really, really good at picking famous voices. Jess, is that you? Do you reckon you're good at this? Ah, we'll see. I'm not sure. You've got to join a team,

okay? Do you want to be on Team Bree or Team Clint? Ah, Team Bree today, please. Alright, Jess, it's you and me, which means, Taylor, you'll be joining Clint. Taylor? Oh, hello. Hello, hello, you'll be joining Clint. Taylor. Oh, hello. Hello, hello, hello.

There she is. Okay. I'm going to need you to be a bit faster than that when you buzz in with your name, but you can do that, can't you, Taylor? I certainly can. Yeah, good, good. Ella's put our game together today. Ella, are we running a theme in today's game?

Yes. Yep, surprise, surprise, we picked a really good one. Disney Stars. Ooh. Disney Stars. Old picked a really good one. Disney Stars. Disney Stars. Old Disney Stars. Yes. Old Disney Stars. That's all I'll give you. Did you make them Old Disney Stars because Brie and I are old compared to you? Oh,

not that old. So we will know these people. She's like, Old Disney Star, Hannah Montana. We'll see. We'll see. I'm not saying. Right. Jess and Taylor, Brie and I are going to go first,

and then you guys will go second, and then we'll go third and back and forth. Cool? Awesome. First team to three wins the KFC. We ready to go, Ella? Ready to go. Here's your first one. Only reason why I...

Great. Miley Cyrus, aka Hannah Montana. Yay! One thing that I just wanted to do was really let my fans know how appreciative I am of their loyalty. They are the only reason why I live the life that

I live and I know that. No one has a more recognisable voice than her. Right. So beautiful and deep. So recognisable. Yeah. Okay. Jess and Taylor, are you guys ready for the next one? Yep.

Yep. Yep. Okay. It's down to you guys, all right? Buzz in with your names. Here is the next Disney star. Definitely a change of pace for me, but I'm also going back to my roots. Jess.

Jess, who's that? Taylor Swift. No. Oh, no. Who's like a free guest, Taylor? Selena Gomez. Good guess. No. We'll play a little bit more. Definitely a change of pace for me, but I'm also going back to my

roots because that's what I started singing when I released my first album and my second album. She's just released a new album as well, going down a very rock, punk era. Anyone? Can I guess? No, no, can I guess? No, just for fun.

Demi Lovato. Yes. That doesn't count as a point. It's one all to Clint. Sorry, one nil to Clint. And Taylor. And Taylor. Alright, here comes the next voice, I'm assuming. Sorry, one nil to Clint. And Taylor. Alright, here comes the next voice, I'm assuming? Yes, here's the next one. I usually drive by my old...

That's Selena Gomez. Wow. I usually drive by my old neighbourhood just because it feels so good. It just, it kind of reminds me. So every time I'm home I actually... Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Sorry, that's a bit long.

She's very recognisable as well. She's got such a recognisable voice as well. You're right. Kind of, because it sounds like she is not that interested. She's a bit fed up. She's got a bit of a Kourtney Kardashian vibe

to her voice, eh? Monotone kind of. A little bit. Yeah, yeah. All right, this means... One all. Is this for the win? Yeah, for the... One all. Is this for the win? Yeah, for the win.

Let's play this for the win. Yeah. Okay, Jess and Taylor, it's down to this one, okay? Come on, Jess. Come on, Jess. Who's this voice? It all really happens. Chicky Donahue is this guy who lived in a small...

Is that Zac Efron? Yes, it is. It all really happened. Chicky Donahue is this guy who lived in a small town in Inwood, New York, when he was younger, and all of his friends were off fighting. He did it. Congratulations, Jess. You've won Kiss That Voice and 50 KFC chicken dollars.

Woo, awesome. Well done, Jess. We came back in the end just. Bree and Clint. On Friday, we. We came back in the end just. Bree and Clint. On Friday, we broadcast our show live from Hamilton because Friday night was spent at the bank for our first Friday Okie Live in probably about two years. Yeah, a long time.

But, God, it was good to be back. So good. Hamilton. Good to be back on the mic. Hamilton know how to send it, eh? We showed up to where we were staying, and we were checking into our accommodation. And we wear these, if you haven't seen them on our social media,

we wear these really loud, kind of obnoxious, gold, sparkly blazers. Sequined blazers. Sequined blazers with like a black satin collar. And as I was walking into the accommodation, with it on a hook over my shoulder, this man goes to me, you know, a man carrying a jacket like that begs a lot of questions. I said, oh yeah, what sort of questions is that? He's like, do you charge by the hour?

I reckon he thought you were a magician. You look like a magician. Magician? Yeah. I reckon he wanted something done with a wand. We were down the bank and we had a great turnout. There were all kinds of singers who showed up to sing.

There were so many. Qualified, unqualified, confident, not confident. Yeah, we had the full array. Do we have any audio from some of the singers there on Friday night? We do.

This is Aaliyah who took on an Alicia Keys song. People want it all But I don't. We're loving it all. Feeling you, baby. So good. She was incredible.

I reckon, do you reckon we had about 20 performances? Yeah, yeah, if not a few more. Yeah, it made the voting process hard because there were a lot of really good singers. We were giving away $500, and people really wanted it. Some didn't care about it. Some just got up there to have a laugh. Just to have a lot of really good singers. We were giving away $500 and people really wanted it. Some didn't care about it. Some just got up there to have a laugh. Just to have a bit of fun.

Which was great. But there was one performer in particular who happened to be at the bank for a work lunch that ended up rolling into the afternoon. Wait, I didn't know this. Yeah. Oh, didn't you know that? I thought he came down especially. No. I'm pretty... Well, Wait, I didn't know this. Yeah. Oh, didn't you know that? I thought he came down especially. No. Well, actually, I could be

wrong. Did he luck into this? The first time I saw him that evening, he goes, I've been here since lunchtime and I've had a few too many drinks. His name is Levi and he took on this song from the Manhattans.

It's gonna hurt me, I can't lie. Such a big song. When you think ZM, Friday Oaky event though, I'm not sure you necessarily gravitate

towards this. No, not necessarily. It doesn't come up. But Levi knew this was his song And he sent it like tomorrow wasn't going to count We've got a little bit of audio that doesn't quite do Levi justice He was incredible but this was the winning Friday Oki performance

It's gonna hurt me, I can't lie He commanded the whole room. It was so cool to see. It was a full-blown performance. Like, the voice was there, the stage presence, and he took home $500 cash, well-deserved. One of my favourites was the two lads who did Beyonce together. Oh, that was so good. Just two guys who got up and did Halo together.

It was very, very well done. They closed the show. Shout out to those lads. Very, very, very good. Bree and Clint. Woman is very angry, Clint, because she has found out that her now husband has been lying to her about his age. Oh.

So they're already married. She found out after they got married that he was lying. Yes. Wow. Here's how it happened. So she said that she met the man back in 2020 and she's 29 now, I believe, and he told her that he was 35.

Okay. She said that she felt like he always looked way older. Oh, okay. But she chose to trust him and that she just thought maybe that's just something, you know. He's just withered. Maybe he's a few years, yeah, or maybe he is that age. Maybe he's a sailor.

Yeah, but it was after he started doing things that were a bit weird, like hiding his IDs and certain stuff, that she became quite sceptical. Getting into real midlife things. He bought a Harley. She was like, wait a second. Wait a second. You're 35. Anyway, she said as they continued to date, she kind of forgot about it. It wasn't going to worry her too much. But she felt

like there was a lot of pressure that was being put on her from not only him, but his family to get married and start a family. Okay. And she said he was lovely and he was really nice but she did feel this kind of looming pressure, especially from his mum every time they visit. Anyway, it was shortly after their marriage that they had a doctor's appointment and they were getting some screening and some testing done I think to maybe... Oh, okay.

Like some fertility stuff. Yeah. To think about start getting pregnant. Anyway, she said it was there that she learnt the truth about his age as she overheard him saying to the doctor that he was born in 1976.

Which would make him 46 instead of 35. Whoa! A full decade and a bit. Yeah. That's quite a lot to lie about. Like, if you knocked a few years off, you'd forgive him and you'd be like, oh, okay. So let's roll this back to 2020 when they got together.

She's 27. Yes. He's a sifty old 44-year-old. Oh, yeah. You know? Yeah, because that would have made him 44. You can see how he felt. Like if 27 was, oh, yeah, oh, I'm not.

I'm not condoning this behavior at all. No, I'm not condoning it whatsoever. She said she's now in the situation, right, where this man has been really good to her. Like he's showed her a lot of love. But he is going to die 11 years sooner than she anticipated. Which is something she needs to take on board. But she said she doesn't know if she can trust him anymore.

No, she can't, unfortunately, because the relationship is built on a lie. That's really unfortunate. That's quite a big lie. And he didn't even come forward with it. He got caught. It's not like he had some attack of the gilts and he went, I have to get this off my chest. I didn't intend for it to go on this long,

but I got to a point where I thought I couldn't tell you. It was the point of no return. Yeah, and I didn't want to lose you. He got called out by a doctor. How awkward. You would have found out his real age when you were executing his will. You'd be like, wait a minute. When you were filling out the documentation for his tombstone.

You're like, I knew he was buying those grandpa loafers way earlier than expected. I knew no 35 year old enjoyed Werther's Originals that much, although I do love a Werther's Originals. I love Werther's Originals. Yeah. They're for everyone. I take that back. They're for everyone. There's one part of the story

that makes me laugh quite a lot and it's the part where she was like, one of the warning signs for me was when I would ask him what his birthday is. And he would say, oh, I can't remember. I'm going to have to check. That's a red flag. That's a red flag. I wonder, because she said he looks old for 35.

I wonder if he looked young for 46. Yeah, well, that's a good question. You know, you'd have to. Can you imagine, like, if you're like I'm 35 and then I'd be so self-conscious of people going God, you don't look 35. It's like you going out to town this weekend and telling everybody that you're 22.

Yeah, I'd probably go more 25. Oh, at $100 at M this afternoon we want to ask you guys, who lied about their age? Who was it and how did you find out? The key thing for me is how much were they lying by? Yeah, what was the age? Yeah, yeah. I'm not

talking about you're a bouncer and a 16 year old lied about being 18. I want like... That's pretty common. Yeah, I want some real intimate lies. Yeah, who was lying about their age and why? 0800 dials at M or you can text us on 9696. You can remain anonymous. Brianne Clint.

Who was lying about their age? And why were they lying about their age? Yeah, why? We know where the guy in your story was, the 46-year-old who said he was... 35. 35. To date the 27-year-old who said he was... 35. 35. To date the 27-year-old.

Yeah. Yeah. We know why he did it. Yeah. So why did you do it? Was it to get a job? And how many years did you lie about? Because he went 11 years difference.

How many years did you lie about? We've all heard the stories of grandparents who lied about their age to go off to war. That was a big one back in the day. My grandfather, Reginald Steele, shout out, Pa. I know you're up there somewhere. He was 16 and changed his passport and his birth certificate to 18. Was his name Reginald Steele?

Yeah. That is the most World War II name. It's a cool name, eh? Yeah, yeah, totally. Reggie Steele. Let's go to our first anonymous caller. Hi, anonymous. Hi, anonymous. Hey, how are you? Are you anonymous because

you lied about your age? No, I'm anonymous because I don't want my mother to hear me. Oh, fair enough, anonymous. Tell us, was it your mum that lied about her age? It was, and she still is, so hopefully she doesn't hear this. Okay, tell us about it.

The details. She's got a partner that's a bit younger than her. Okay. Go, Mum. Yeah, living the dream. But she's not stated her age. Okay, so how old is Mum? I'm even too scared to say that,

but she had a big birthday this year. I'm going to say she turned 50. And I'm 32, so we could probably work that out. Okay, I reckon she's in... 60? 50. 50. Oh, it could be 60.

Could be 60. Yeah. It could be. Right, okay. Could be. How old is the new partner, Anonymous? I think it's about an eight-year difference. Oh, that's not bad.

Like, that's not too bad. But obviously your mum feels a little bit self-conscious, so she's like, I'm just going to shave a few years off. No, I want to know how old she's alluding to being. Yeah. I know she hasn't stated, but how old do you think mum wants her younger partner to think that she is?

I think she's cutting back five years. Oh, that's fine. She's allowed. She's going with the line, a lady never tells. Yeah. I think your mum's in the clear. That's fine. Kev's here.

Hi, Kev. Hi, Kev. Hiya. Did you lie about your age, Kevin? No, my ex-girlfriend did. Okay, tell us. Okay, so I was 25 and she told me she was 30. Okay.

She was actually 50. What? Wait a second, Kevin. She told you she was 30, but you found out she was actually 50. Yeah. How good did she look for 50 if you believe she was 30, Kev? She's a Chinese woman, so they all always look younger. Okay, Kevin.

All right, Kevin. But, yeah, I found out from one of her friends when we went out for dinner with them. Have you ever seen that ad where it goes, should have gone to Specsavers? I've only glasses, I swear. Kevin. That's what they all say. God, that's a big difference, isn't it? I just got to get back to Kev.

Kev, Kev, Kev, Kev. How did you... So she told you she was 30. She was actually 50. How did you find out? Do you know what some of her friends... They told you. I was talking to one of them.

Yeah. They asked me how old I am. I'm 25. She's like, you know, she's 50. I was like, what, what? That's when the pension notes

started coming to the house. She got, she got Kevin a discount on her Super Gold card and he was like, wait a second. how do you get that discount? Julia's here.

Hi, Julia. Hi, Julia. Hi. Tell us, who was it, Julia, that lied about their age? i lied to my dad about how old my partner was or my boyfriend at the time yeah this is an interesting one yeah so my dad's

um quite religious well um yeah so he he i was 19 and my partner was like just turned 30. okay my partner even thought that i was a bit older. He thought I was about 22. Okay. And then I told my dad he was about 27, so I shaved a couple of years off. God, everyone's lying. Yeah. Everyone's lying in this situation.

Everyone's telling a few lies. So Dad was fine with 27 but not 30. Is that right? Yeah, something like that. But by that stage, we were, like, we've been together 15 years now and we've got a child together. So he's part of the family, so it's all good.

And how old is he now? Do you know? Yeah, yeah, I know. We established that pretty quick. Okay, good. Does he know how old you actually are? Yeah, he knows how old I am. Just saying we're all on the...

Julie is like, can you not break my cover, Clint? I don't want to talk about it. I've got to read out this one text real quick. I was at Friday Jams last weekend. I hooked up with a girl during Jay Sean. I'm 23 and she told me she was 22. When sober, she messaged me and told me she's actually 30. And they hooked up during Jay Sean.

She's like, do you love Jay Sean? And he's like, I've never heard of him. She's like, yeah, neither. Time for Birthday Banger. Right, here we go. Birthday Banger. This is where you call us up, you tell us your birthday, and then we put it into our system here and we figure out

what was the song that was number one on your 16th birthday. And then guess what? We play one of those songs. Exactly. It's a good time. Sorry, I'm a bit flustered. We're down to the wire cutting up good birthday banger hooks. Yeah.

But I think we got good birthday banger hooks. I reckon you've nailed it. Okay, let's start off with Steve. G'day. Oh, no, we're going to start off with Ashley. Hi, Ashley. Hey, guys. G'day, Ash.

How are you, mate? Hey, good, thanks. How was your weekend? Yeah, not bad, guys. G'day, Ash. How are you, mate? I'm good, thanks. How was your weekend? Yeah, not bad, thanks. That's good, Ash. What's your birthday? 23rd of July, 1990. All right.

Bang us. Did they do a line, a lyric in this song about a camel? Missed opportunity if they didn't. Like Alice the camel.

Missed opportunity. What do you think, Ash? Do you like it? I like it. I reckon it's great. Me too. I'm a get, get, get, Do you like it? I like it. I reckon it's great. Me too. So many opportunities.

Bree and Clint. It's one's for you, Steve, for a couple of days ago, mate. Clint, TikTok usually is a lot of mindless scrolling,

but every now and then I come across quite an informative TikTok. Yeah, I find the same thing. You know? It's about one in five for me. Yeah, about one in five. Yeah. And there was this particular TikTok that came up on my feed last night which blew my mind and I will preface this with saying

I don't know if this is accurate. Oh, okay. But just open your mind for a second. Okay, I know it's about the contraceptive pill. It is. Is the person who has made this TikTok, are they a doctor?

I don't know. I believe there's a doctor in the room. I feel like they do have accreditation. I just don't know what it is. Okay, can I ask, if there is a doctor in the room listening to this now, like there's a doctor listening, can they corroborate what you're about to say?

Probably, maybe. Or maybe a scientist. I don't know. You know, science really ruins facts sometimes. So why don't we just... Okay, let's just get into it. The theory that I saw on TikTok was around taking the contraceptive pill and how this theory believes that you are attracted to different people when you're on the pill to when you're off the pill.

Take a listen to these two people talking about the theory. I think that if you are on the pill, obviously not pregnant, you're attracted to different men than you would be if you were off the pill. No, it's absolutely true because it changes not only your internal hormones, but your neurotransmitters, hormones like oxytocin the love drug that everybody talks about it changes all those different patterns in your body when you're on that versus when you're off of it so maybe trying to meet a life partner when you're drugged is not a good idea probably not the best idea oh my god drugged is that that feels like words. Well, it is a drug.

No, I know. That is changing. I know, I know. It is putting drugs in your body. Yeah, but I'm just saying that's an emotive use of the word. I wonder if this is true. Yeah. Because, and then they also said this really interesting thing,

which I'd never really thought about before. Do you know the pill, this is what these people are saying, makes you think that you're pregnant? That's crazy. Yeah. So your body behaves as if you're pregnant. Kind of. And that's why you can't get pregnant.

Yeah. On the pill. I'm pretty sure, which I never knew that. Yeah. Which I don't know if that's true, but this is what these people are saying. Yeah. That it produces and puts hormones into your body to make you think that you're pregnant, your body think that it's pregnant.

It is crazy the amount of time that women kind of have to spend on the pill in different situations. It's mental. I just think it's like, it's something that I am terrified to come off the pill. Like, because I've had to take it for such a long time. You're just scared that you won't find your partner attractive anymore. Is that what it comes down to? Well, yeah. You're like, when I finally see who I'm actually dating.

They say that can happen. No way. Like, you joke. And I did more research into it some studies say that yeah if you start a relationship when you're on the pill yeah then you may find that when you come off the pill that you're no longer attracted to your partner i don't know if that's true but some studies are saying that could be true there are guys out there listening to this right now who are clearly like punching who are rushing out to the chemist to refill their partner's prescription

as quickly as possible, you know? Yeah. Don't let her see the real me, ever. Crazy, if that's true. Bree and Clint. Did you realise, Bree, that if you live to 100, you will receive a letter from the king, not the queen? Well, it's changed now, hasn't it?

Have you ever known anyone to receive a letter from the queen? Nope, nobody. Never seen a letter from the queen. My great-grandmother got a letter from the queen. Did she? It's in our family heirlooms. For making it to 100? Yeah, she lived till she was 104, I believe.

Yeah, that's impressive. Crazy, eh? A hand signed. Well, New Zealand's first person to reach the milestone of 100 years and receive a birthday card from King Charles III is Neil Boak. He got one over the weekend. Shout out to Neil. Nice work.

I wonder if Neil was excited to receive the letter from the new king, Charles, or he was a little bit disappointed to miss out on a letter from the queen. Well, he's 100. Lizzie served for, was it 75 years? Oh, yeah, 75. So the majority of his life would have been spent under the queen. Under the reign of the queen. He's also lived a life of service.

He flew boat planes in the Pacific during World War II, rescuing pilots who'd been shot down by the Japanese. So although he was fighting for the king at that stage, our king. Oh, true. That is true. But then he's been home and... I'd love to know. You'd just be a bit gutted.

Yeah. I mean, if you had to rank them. Look, if you, okay. Are we allowed to rank the royal family from favourite to least favourite? That might be a bit far. Well, we know who's going to be least favourite. Oh, yeah, that one. That's pretty easy.

Oh, yeah, that one. Pretty bloody easy. Jeez, I completely forgot about that one. Imagine if you got a letter from that one. They're like, sorry, my, that one. It's pretty bloody easy. I completely forgot about that one. Imagine if you got a letter from that one. They're like, sorry, my brother's busy. Hope this letter will do. And you go, it absolutely will not do. Definitely not.

Get out the shredder. I love this bit. Whenever somebody makes it to a milestone like this, 100 years for Neil Boak. His advice for a long life is have fun. If you're not having fun, you're doing something wrong. That's pretty good. I like that from Neil.

That's pretty good. That's up there with don't take life too seriously. Nobody gets out alive. I quite like that too. That's a good one too. Yeah. Or what about that other woman that was in the news last week? Her secret because she was very old.

Sex and ciggies. Huh? Sex and ciggies. Nah. I like those ones. A bottle of tequila a week. Her secret because she was very old. Sex and ciggies? Sex and ciggies? I like those ones. A bottle of tequila a week.
