Starting point is 00:00:00 The ZM Podcast Network. G'day everybody, welcome to the show. It's Brie and Clint, right on time. Not 15 seconds late. Definitely right on time. We are good to go. G'day, guys. How are we? Good. It's not a good day for me. Why not? Because today was the day where I'm breaking in a new mascara.
Starting point is 00:00:33 Oh, okay. And the ladies will hear me and some fellas will hear me. It takes a while to break in a mascara. Why? To get it really pumping out of the tube properly? Nah, just sometimes it's too liquidy and then like towards the end of the life of a mascara it gets too clunky.
Starting point is 00:00:52 Oh, okay. Clumpy. Yeah, yeah. And then so like there's always, there's this perfect window right in the middle where it just works perfectly. Kind of like tomato sauce when you get a bit of that water at the top.
Starting point is 00:01:02 You just have to shake it before you use it. Why don't you give your mascara a shake then? It's not that funny. Is it? Don't say I didn't take an interest. No, I appreciate you taking an interest. If anyone's got a half-used mascara that Brie could have. Yeah, that would be great.
Starting point is 00:01:17 Also, why is your plan just to shake everything to fix it? Yeah, I don't know. You need to stop shaking things. Shake it or blow on it. That's buggered. Please don't blow on me. Or shake me for that matter.
Starting point is 00:01:33 I'm not trying to fix you. Well, I need fixing. Coldplay, where are you? Yeah. They're coming to New Zealand. Okay, today on the show, there is heaps going on. We're going to play Pass the Parcel at 4 o'clock thanks to Big Barrel. You can win some

Starting point is 00:02:38 How come you're fluent in sign language? I don't know. I just wanted to learn it. So you didn't grow up with like, you know, a brother or a sister or a parent that was deaf. I just wanted to learn it. So you didn't grow up with like, you know, a brother or a sister or a parent that was deaf. You just wanted to learn. Yeah. That's amazing Alicia. How long did it take
Starting point is 00:02:54 you? A couple of years, like three or four. Wow, that's so impressive.

Starting point is 00:04:37 Congratulations, Alicia. You've got 50 bucks cash coming your way thanks to KFC. Thank you. Smart cookie, that Alicia, isn't she? Ladies pushing their lead back out. 105 to 99. There's not long left in the year. Not many weeks to go.
Starting point is 00:04:55 Maybe 17 more games? Maybe. I wonder if that's right. I think I am right, yeah. That was quick math from you. One of my friends I saw online gave birth to her first baby last week. Oh, nice. And I've been waiting to catch up with her, give her a call,
Starting point is 00:05:13 see how she's doing. Yeah. Because the post that I saw online, she was talking about how it was quite an ordeal because the labour went on and on and on. And when I say on and on and on, how long do you think this friend of mine was in labour? They can go for days, these labours.
Starting point is 00:05:40 I don't know. How long? My friend was in labour for six days. Oh. Six days. Oh. Six days. Oh. And I said, are you joking? I thought she was joking because I was like, surely that's not a real thing.
Starting point is 00:05:55 Yeah. She was like, yeah, it is. And obviously I'm going to believe the woman that's just given birth. That's outrageous. Yeah. Like to go through six days of that? Yeah. Like how exhausted would you be
Starting point is 00:06:09 like mentally and physically? Like I can't even imagine. I watched Lucy do 36 hours with our first child and that was enough. Like that was more than enough. Because you're just exhausted. Your body doesn't get a break. Every 10 minutes it's like ahhh! Yeah, it's like you're doing a poo every 10 doesn't get a break. Every 10 minutes it's like ahhh!
Starting point is 00:06:27 It's like you're doing a poo every 10 minutes. Pretty intense poo. You haven't been there for some of my poos. I googled what is the world record for the longest labour? Is she up there? Producers, Clint, do you guys want to have a guess at what is the
Starting point is 00:06:44 world record for the longest recorded labour on record? Six days. I'd hate for it to go on for longer than a week. I'm going to go, but it's got to be a world record. I'm going to go with 10 days for the world's longest. 10 days? Yeah. I'll say nine days.
Starting point is 00:06:58 I'll go 14. 14? Two weeks? Yeah. The record is held by a woman named Joanna, and she was in labour for 75 days. What? 75 days?
Starting point is 00:07:12 After 75 days and what is believed to be the longest labour ever recorded, Joanna gave birth to a healthy girl and a healthy boy. The two babies were delivered by caesarean at a neonatal clinic in Poland. On day 75, they're like, we're going to do the Caesarean. Day 75. Do that on day three. Well, the babies obviously weren't developed enough. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 00:07:37 So they had to keep them in there. That's outrageous. Wait, 75 days. That's like two and a half months. Yeah. Two and a half months. Wait, 75 days. That's like two and a half months. Yeah. Two and a half months. Oh, thank you. God, that story right there is contraception.
Starting point is 00:07:52 That's now until Christmas and then past New Year. And then it's like having your babies on Valentine's Day. Honestly, that woman there deserves a medal or something. A lie down. Like she deserves anything that that woman wants, she deserves. Can you imagine being her partner? I'll take the kids today.
Starting point is 00:08:11 You're like, yeah, you think? I'll take the kids for the next 75 days. I think you should take them for the next two and a half months. I thought we could ask people, put it out there at 0800DIALZM, how long was the labour? Maybe it was you, maybe it was someone you know, maybe it was your mum. With your partner.
Starting point is 00:08:27 But was the labour really long? Yeah. Can you beat 75 days? Well, no one, that's the world record. Oh, okay. Can you beat six days? Well, we'll take anything. No, we won't take anything.
Starting point is 00:08:40 We won't take... No, I'll take what I can get. We won't take anything less than a day. We're ready. You know? Yeah, true. Nothing regular. Brian Clint.
Starting point is 00:08:49 A friend of mine just had her first baby. Very exciting. Called her up to see how she's going. Being a new mum. And she said to me, yeah, things are good. Apart from the fact that I was in labour for six days. Did you ask her how many of those days she was in the hospital? Because they don't let you come in
Starting point is 00:09:06 until you're at a certain point. She said to me, she's like, I truly thought about divorcing my husband. Yeah. On the fifth day I thought about on the fifth day I regained some of my strength and I thought I'm going to divorce this guy. Wow, that's long enough.
Starting point is 00:09:22 She could have done the paperwork. You put this inside me. Can you imagine five days in, six days in, you're like, I'm ready. So where's the long ones? Where's the long labours? Ellie's called up. Hi, Ellie. Hi, Ellie.
Starting point is 00:09:37 Hi. How long was your labour, Ellie? My labour was 44 hours. 44 hours. So nearly two days. Yeah, basically two days. Was that your first pregnancy, second, third? It was my first.
Starting point is 00:09:51 Oh, no, Ellie. Did it turn you off having another one? Well, no. The second one came along in less than five. Oh, perfect. That's the way it goes, eh? Those first ones are really sticky. You know why, Ellie?
Starting point is 00:10:03 Yeah, definitely. Because you deserved a five-hour labour on the second go after 44 hours. Yeah. Thank you. Yeah, it felt really well-deserved. Okay, well, congratulations and well done. Thank you. Well done, you, Ellie. Nice
Starting point is 00:10:17 work. Let's go to Sianay on 0800 dials at M. Hi, Sianay. Hi, Sianay. G'day, guys. How are ya? Good, mate. How are you going? Yeah, not bad, thanks. You had a really short labour, I understand, Sianae. It was my mum.
Starting point is 00:10:32 So with me. Okay. Yeah, sorry. It was only with me. So an hour and 15 minutes to get me out for her. Jeez, were you on a slippery dip or something, Sianae? I have no idea. But, yeah, so as I said on the text, I sort of hope genetically that might be passed down to me.
Starting point is 00:10:51 Oh, I hope so. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I hope so for you. What number baby were you? I was number two. Yeah, classic number two. If you time it, if you time it that you do around the Black Friday sales, I've heard that it speeds up the labour
Starting point is 00:11:06 because babies want to get out to get the deals. Oh, yeah? Yeah. Is that right? Well, good news for anyone who's reaching full term this week. They're like, sweet. Start pushing. By tomorrow, it'll be here.
Starting point is 00:11:18 Uncross your legs and start pushing. Thanks for calling, Sinead. Someone texted through and said 98 hours. 98 hours, yeah. So how many days is that? What's 48 and 48? Is that four days? 48 and 48.
Starting point is 00:11:31 Yeah, it's about four days. I don't know. All right, let's figure this out. 48 and 48 is 96. No. Are you sure? No. Yes.
Starting point is 00:11:40 Yeah, because 8 and 8 is 16. Yeah, 96. So that's four days and two hours. Four days and two hours. That person will not be happy with four days. Four days and two hours. Don't forget the two hours. Rochelle's here.
Starting point is 00:11:52 Hi, Rochelle. Hi, Rochelle. Hi, how are you? Good, thanks. You had a labour of four days as well, Rochelle. Yeah, so 96 hours, four days of active labour. Oh, Rochelle. I can hear the kid in the background too labour. Oh, Rochelle. I can hear the kid in the background too.
Starting point is 00:12:08 Rochelle. Fourth child, actually. Oh, fourth. What were some of the thoughts that were going through your head when you were like that deep into labour? Well, it was my first child. I had no idea what was going on, why it was taking so long or anything. I ended up having to have oxytocin to speed things up.
Starting point is 00:12:28 Oh, man. Because four days is a bit ridiculous. Yeah, it's a bit ridiculous. And I had to drill because I hadn't had any rest at all. So that helped a wee bit. God, you poor thing, Rochelle. And how did you go with your other babies? Were they quick?
Starting point is 00:12:41 My second pregnancy was twins, so I had a Caesar. Oh, God, Rochelle. so I had a Caesar. Oh, God, Rochelle. So I had a Caesar. Yeah. You never take the easy way, do you? What was that? Sorry? Oh, no, it's all good.
Starting point is 00:12:53 Well done, Rochelle. We shouldn't create this illusion that the second child was faster, because a lot of the times it is, but someone just texted in and said, my first labour was 33 hours. Everyone said the second one would be way quicker. The second one was 33 hours. Everyone said the second one would be way quicker. The second one was 65 hours. 60, oh my, can you imagine?
Starting point is 00:13:12 She would have just been laying there going, the first one would have been out by now. The first one would have been out 10 hours ago. Yeah, so everybody listening right now, if you're not ready to go through that, use protection. That's what you got to do. I just got gotta read this one text because it's very funny did you see it? no
Starting point is 00:13:28 someone texts through and they said I was in labour for three days and my partner comes up to me mid labour and says
Starting point is 00:13:36 no offence but this is kind of boring RIP to that guy RIP to that guy he's now dead yeah yeah he's like can I go play golf
Starting point is 00:13:44 you're like yeah never come back you can go you can go play golf? You're like, yeah, never come back. You can go. You can go play golf in America and never see you again. Bye-bye. News out this week that the phone call is dead. No, thanks. Just text me.
Starting point is 00:13:59 I can't be bothered. Stop calling me. People's aversion to using their phone to call people, use the phone for actually what it was made for, to make phone calls, is so strong now that a British organisation has issued an etiquette guide to help people of every age navigate the humble phone call.
Starting point is 00:14:17 I don't mind a phone call. Me neither. Don't mind it, especially if I'm in the car. Oh, yeah. And people hate that. One of my friends said to me one time, she goes, are you in the car. Oh, yeah. And people hate that. One of my friends said to me one time, she goes, are you in the car? She goes, the only time you call me
Starting point is 00:14:30 is when you're in the car so I can entertain you when you're driving. I'm guilty of that too. Yeah, I love calling people when I'm in the car. But it's my phone calling time. Yeah, I love it. Don't answer if you're busy. I'll understand.
Starting point is 00:14:40 But then I'll... I'll try again the next time I'm in the car. Yeah, I'll just call you on my way back I call my mum all the time in the car. We have some good chats. One of the phone call etiquette guide tips is remember that some people, especially if they are young,
Starting point is 00:14:54 can find unexpected phone calls alarming. They suggest that you should text somebody before you call. Oh God, that's so annoying. And I know people do do that but I hate that. They text me like, can I call? I'm like, oh my God, now I'm more stressed out about the phone call. Just call, that's so annoying. And I know people do do that, but I hate that. They text me like, can I call? I'm like, oh my God, now I'm more stressed out about the phone call.
Starting point is 00:15:08 Just call me. Just call me. You're obviously going to call anyway. What am I going to say? No, just text me whatever you're going to say. But people are not calling. In the UK, they've got data because they can see how many phone minutes are being used.
Starting point is 00:15:21 In 2008, which was one of the last years that everybody had a cell phone and a landline. Okay. After that, everyone was like, I don't need this landline. Yeah, why am I keeping this? Why am I paying for this? In 2008, in the UK, there were 258 billion minutes of phone calls.
Starting point is 00:15:38 Right. Last year, it was down to 202 billion. That's 56 billion less minutes of people actually talking to each other. Wait, say again. So what was 2008? 2008 was 258 billion minutes. And last year was 202 billion minutes. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:56 Still pretty high. It's, what? It's gone down by 20% in one generation. Yeah, but I mean, that was 2008. That was the time. Yeah. Of the phone calls. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:08 You know, that was the peak primo time. Yeah, yeah, that was. Apart from it did cost quite a lot to call people. Oh, yeah, yeah. Unless you were calling them in that, you know, the special hour that some of those telecom companies gave you. Or on your 100 free minutes that you got with your prepay plan. I do not miss, like, having to buy credit for my phone.
Starting point is 00:16:27 No. Do you remember those days? You have to go down to the news agency or the supermarket. Actually buy the card. And then they print. No, I'm talking even older when they printed out the docket. They print out this long docket. You have to put all the numbers in.
Starting point is 00:16:41 So you like a phone call. I like a phone call. Claudia, just snap hole around the room. If we call you, are you going to answer? For work, yes. For personal, no. Really? You'll answer the boss but not your friends. Yeah. There's a lot about you. My boss pays me. Because my boss
Starting point is 00:16:56 pays me. So you're not calling if we You're not answering. You're not answering. For you guys, I probably would. Yeah, only because you see us as work. But I'll be like Oh, do I have to? Oh, here we go. Nah, only because you see us as work. But I'll be like, oh, do I have to? Oh, here we go. No, I'm going to ignore this one, actually. That's me!
Starting point is 00:17:09 I'm calling you! I want to talk about a cool grandma that was spotted over in the UK getting down at a 50 Cent concert. That's right, the 64-year-old grandmother by the name of Mary Jane Farquharson. No, what? Yes, her name. Sorry, can I get that name again?
Starting point is 00:17:33 Mary Jane. Yeah. Which is another name for Farquharson. Like Lord Farquharson. Farquharson. Farquharson. Hold on. Farquitson. Farquitson. Far... Hold on.
Starting point is 00:17:48 Farquaharson. Farquaharson. I don't know if you can say that on radio. Farquaharson. Farquaharson. That's it. Wait, one more time. Are we making it better or worse?
Starting point is 00:18:00 Can we just call her Mary Jane? Mary Jane Farquaharson. No, it's much worse. That's her name. Guys, we're not making fun of this poor woman's name. Actually, she, by the looks of it. It's not that you're making fun of it. I just think it's...
Starting point is 00:18:17 Why? Why? Tell me why. Because it sounds like you're saying something else. Guess what? Guess what? If someone makes a complaint, they got no leg to stand on. I read the rules.
Starting point is 00:18:28 It's a last name. I'm trying to pronounce it to the best of my ability. It's all about intention. We didn't intend that to be bad. Farqua Hassan said that she was having the best time ever at the 50 Cent Show. Her favourite song was Ayo Technology. She's so cute. She's what, 64?
Starting point is 00:18:52 64. Yeah, she's going for it. And apparently 50 Cent re-shared this video of her because he loved it so much. My parents are in their 60s. She looks more like she's in their 60s. She looks more like she's in her 80s. I reckon she's lying about her age.
Starting point is 00:19:08 I reckon she's 84. Which makes it even cooler. She's the late 70s. Yeah, late 70s, 80s. Yeah. But she's still having a good time. She's bouncing. She's bopping. She's bouncing. It made me
Starting point is 00:19:23 ask the question. I was like, I love hearing about people that where their age or their demographic might not necessarily coincide with who you think would be their favourite musician. Yeah. Like, Producer Claude, you and I were at the Post Malone show last night. I saw some mature people getting down to some Post Malone last night. How mature?
Starting point is 00:19:49 I'd say 60s. Yeah, I feel like the ones I saw were mid-60s. And then you always think you're like, did they come with their kids or like, are they big fans? And this one woman who looks so cool, She had the full Post Malone kit on. Yeah. And she knew every word. Cool.
Starting point is 00:20:08 And it was awesome. If you think about Mary Jane Fakwahasem, if she's 64, 50 Cent came out 20 years ago. So there's a chance that 44, she was, you know. Yeah. She's just cruising. She's just a cool mum. Yeah, she's just, and then she's just stuck with it.
Starting point is 00:20:24 She's like, finally, I get to see 50 Cent. Maybe that just a cool mum. Yeah, she's just, she was just a, and then she's just stuck with it. She's like, finally I get to see 50 Cent. Maybe that's how it happens. Yeah. Well, maybe she's just full G unit and that's what they listen to in the rest home. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:20:32 Who knows? What do you mean rest home? She's 64. What am I saying? She just looks older. She looks older. Yeah, if you've seen the video, she looks older than 64.
Starting point is 00:20:39 Yeah. You reckon she lied about her age? Yeah, I definitely do. Yeah, I think so. She looks like Mrs. Claws. But I mean, then she probably would have lied about her age? Yeah, I definitely do. Yeah, I think so. She looks like Mrs. Claus. But I mean, then she probably would have lied about that horrible last name. Do you reckon she's trolling us? Media's like, what's your name?
Starting point is 00:20:54 I think she smoked a bit of Mary Jane and then goes, guys, I'm going to tell everyone my last name's Farquhar Harsin. Hey, I thought we could put it out there this afternoon. I'm very interested in this one. I really want people to call if your age doesn't necessarily match your favourite musician. Like when you say to someone
Starting point is 00:21:18 my favourite band is such and such and people are like, really? This works both ways. You could be in your 50s, 60s and your favourite artist is Olivia Rodrigo. Or you could be 19 and you love Credence Clearwater Revival. I love that band.
Starting point is 00:21:32 Yeah, but you're old enough to like them. Oh, excuse you. Excuse you, Farqua Harsin. 64-year-old grandma Mary Jane Farquharson has been posted on 50 Cent's social media absolutely bopping at one of his concerts. She's front row on the balcony. She's got the moves too.
Starting point is 00:21:57 Yeah, she's sending it. Everyone is falling in love with her, being like, yes. Everybody wants to be that cool when they're that old. Absolutely. Yeah. So we're asking you, does your age not really go with your favourite artist? Maggie's here. Hi, Maggie.
Starting point is 00:22:14 Hi, Maggie. Hi. How old are you, first of all? I'm 25. Okay, 25. And what's your favourite musician? My favourite artist is Leonard Cohen. Really?
Starting point is 00:22:27 Yes, I took it to a concert when I was like 18 years old and I was so excited. It was going to be my first concert. And then he died. So I got a tattoo inspired by him. Wait, he died before you got to see him? Yeah, literally just before. Maggie, that's the problem with liking older artists.
Starting point is 00:22:50 You're young enough, though, that you'll be alive for them to do, like, an AI Leonard Cohen and you can go and see him at, like, a virtual Coachella or something. Yeah. Or at least, like, Doja is my second favourite artist. Doja Cat, yeah. Really? Okay, they're very different. Leonard Cohen and Doja Cat. So different. Speaking of Doja Cat, yeah. Really? Okay, they're very different.
Starting point is 00:23:05 Leonard Cohen and Doja Cat. So different. Speaking of Doja Cat, someone said on the text machine, I'm 60 and funnily enough, one of my favourite artists is Doja Cat. Really? So I love Ariana Grande and Post Malone. I listen to you guys all day, every day. Cheers, Mark.
Starting point is 00:23:20 Love it. Doja Cat is one of my favourites too. She's so unique. Chris is here. Hi, Chris. G'day, Mark. Love it. Love that. Doja Cat is one of my favourites too. She's so unique. Chris is here. Hi, Chris. G'day, Chris. How are you guys? Good, thanks.
Starting point is 00:23:31 Is it you, Chris, where your age doesn't really go with your favourite artist? Well, it depends on who you are. Okay. Me and some of my friends, we'll sort of go with the artists. How old are you, Chris? What's your age? 63. 63.
Starting point is 00:23:49 And who are you listening to, Chris? I listen to a variety of music. I mean, yours is the only mainstream station I listen to and I can't get an EDM station I listen to all the time. But I follow Dan Oxley away, actually, so when I can't get my other station, I get you guys. Yes! Well, welcome aboard, Chris.
Starting point is 00:24:09 We're glad to have you. Okay, Dan Ox, bad in your 60s. That's perfect. Someone texted through and they said, Hi, Bree and Clint, my name's John. I'm 12 and I love Eminem. Oh, what did you say, 12? 12.
Starting point is 00:24:22 12. Yes. I also love this text. My daughter is 15 years old and loves System of the Down. Like has T-shirts and her playlists are full of their music. Not exactly the first artist you'd expect a teenage girl to listen to. System of the Down. It's very angsty, though.
Starting point is 00:24:42 It's very teenage music. It's just... Where do you find it? It's not on the radio or anything anymore's very angsty, though. It's very teenage music. It's just... Where do you find it? It's not on the radio or anything anymore. Spotify. Yeah, true. Let's go to Brad on the 800 dials at M. Hi, Brad.
Starting point is 00:24:52 Hi, Brad. Hey, guys. How are you going? Good, thanks. Tell us, Brad, how old are you and what's your favourite? So it's actually my daughter. Okay. She is four years old and her favourite song is Mamma Mia.
Starting point is 00:25:04 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Abba spans many generations and will continue to span many generations. That's so cool, Brad. How sick have you got a four-year-old, Brad? I've got a four-year-old as well. How sick are you of listening to Mamma Mia now? Yeah, thanks, take care.
Starting point is 00:25:23 Thanks, take care. Have you tried to get her into any more Abba or is it just Mamma Mia now. Yeah, thanks, take care. Thanks, take care. Have you tried to get her into any more ABBA or is it just Mamma Mia? No, that's the one on rotation. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, more to lose coming, don't worry Brad. Awesome. This is probably my favourite text so far. Someone said, my husband is 53 years old and he's a straight man. His favourite artist at the moment is Troye Sivan. He loves that song Rush.
Starting point is 00:25:53 Yes, I love that guy. One more. Janine's here. Hi, Janine. Hi, Janine. Hi. Hi, how are you? We're good, Janine. First of all, sorry to ask, but how old are you? I'm 49. 49. And who is your favourite artist at the moment, Janine. First of all, sorry to ask, but how old are you? I'm 49.
Starting point is 00:26:05 49. And who is your favourite artist at the moment, Janine? Taylor Swift. There it is. She spans all generations. Love, love, love her. 49, you're definitely young enough to be a Taylor Swift fan, though. Yeah, for sure.
Starting point is 00:26:22 I think I am. 100%. Janine, are you going to see her? No, I can't afford it but I did see her movie concert and I was just like, almost cried. It was amazing. Janine, are you the one that... I got her lyrics tattooed
Starting point is 00:26:38 on my arm. No! When? Recently? Yeah, last week. What lyrics can I ask? I'm interested to know which one you plucked out of all the amazing lyrics. I got one of the, I got her chorus from All Too Well. I love that song. God, that would have been a big back piece.
Starting point is 00:26:55 That's a 10-minute song. No, no, I just picked out a few lines. I don't have that much skin. Janine's like, I didn't get the 10-minute version, just the shortened version. No, no, absolutely not. Just the shorter one. Oh, thanks, fam. Oh, lovely, Janine.
Starting point is 00:27:09 Oh, thank you. Thanks for calling. Appreciate it. Okay, bye. The extended version would be a big tattoo. Can you imagine? It'd be a massive back piece. It'd be enormous.
Starting point is 00:27:21 Right now it's time to play Google Down. And... Actually, it changed my. And actually, change my mind. No, change it back. It's not the right time. I'm ready for you to change it back. Not the right time. And change my mind again. It's time to play.
Starting point is 00:27:34 Do you feel lucky? Well, do you? It's time for Brilliant Clint's Google Down. I think we covered that well. I think we really covered it. Did you turn the mics back on? Seamless. No, not yet.
Starting point is 00:27:45 Okay. All right, here we go. It's time to play Google Down, guys. Here's how it works. I have put these questions into Google, and I'm looking for the most common answer that comes up for that exact question. First person to yell out their name and get three correct will be the winner. Today, as producer Ella is away at an appointment,
Starting point is 00:28:05 Abby, you will be playing. G'day. Awesome. Mate, good to have you here. You've heard the game before? Yep. Okay, great. So you'll be taking on producer Claude and Clint.

Starting point is 00:28:45 Should have remembered that number. It was a good year. Why? It's just nice and even, you know. Was the summer of 69? All right, one to Claude. Question number two. Who was the first Prime Minister of New Zealand?
Starting point is 00:29:02 Henry Sewell. Henry Sewell. You guys have gotten inwell. No, Clint. Gotten in there. Abby, how close are you? You right behind him? Yeah, yeah. I keep feeling to push go.
Starting point is 00:29:17 Okay, this one's yours, Abby. Clint's on one. Claude's on one. Question number three. How tall in feet is Jennifer Aniston? 5'5". Correct. She is 5'5". She's lucky it was correct after I did all that celebrating.
Starting point is 00:29:37 Yeah, you didn't even wait for me to say if it was right. There's a big picture of Jennifer Aniston's face with 5'5 on it. Clint's on two, Claude's on one. Abby, yet to get out of the gates, but you're on this one. Come on. Question number four. What year did they release the first Willy Wonka movie? 1971.
Starting point is 00:29:58 Oh, Claude is fired back. Oh, yeah, you were right there. Abby was right there behind you. Feel the heat. But the point goes to Claude. We're all tied up here this afternoon, two apiece. Question number five. How much is Facebook worth in 2023?
Starting point is 00:30:22 Eight, six, five billion. 21 billion. $21 billion. I'm still fixing a spelling mistake. She can, Abby. That's the problem because we're both gone. She can take her time now. Sorry. Hold on.
Starting point is 00:30:39 $935.64 billion. $911.054 billion. Claudia takes out Google Down this afternoon. That was the answer I had down, $911 billion. Abby, you were so close. And we're going to hook you up with the KFC anyway. Well, thank you. You're welcome. No worries.
Starting point is 00:31:03 And we appreciate you playing. You had good energy. You're at a disadvantage. You're on the No worries. And we appreciate you playing. You're a good energy. You're at a disadvantage. You're on the phone, you know. Exactly. It's way harder. You probably would have had us if you were here, so. Not me.
Starting point is 00:31:12 No, I don't know. I just need to remember to click go. Yeah, you want to come in next week and play in the studio because it'll be way easier for you. Hey, thank you. You're welcome. You let us know. Did you see she just ducked me?
Starting point is 00:31:25 Yeah, she ducked me. I invited her in and she was like, okay, bye. Good to chat. See you. Okay, bye. Do you want my details? Send me the KFC. Bree and Clint.
Starting point is 00:31:34 Breakup day is coming. Guys, I don't want to stress anybody out, but breakup day is coming. Yeah, well, if you're looking to do it, there's a good day on the way. Can you imagine people just hanging out? Yeah. They'd be like, okay. I want to do it, there's a good day on the way. Can you imagine people just hanging out? Yeah. They'd be like, okay. I want to do it on the day. I need to do it on breakup day.
Starting point is 00:31:49 I need to do it with enough time. That's the day I'm allowed to break up with them. Yeah, far enough away from Christmas. And it is. December 11 is the most common day for couples to break up. That seems close to me. Yeah, it's not because people are looking to get out for Christmas. Often they're getting out because of Christmas.
Starting point is 00:32:07 It's like the stress of the holidays culminates in this pressure and then something happens and they're like, I don't even want to go to your mum's house for Christmas. And it all blows up and you end up breaking up. It is awkward if you don't really want to be in the relationship and then you're sitting across the table from their nan who's peppering questions at you.
Starting point is 00:32:26 Breakups spike around Christmas and then again at Valentine's Day, which means December through to February is referred to as breakup season. Interesting, eh? Well, it's hot girl summer. That too. Yeah, for sure. Those graphs intersect perfectly. Yep.
Starting point is 00:32:43 I found this interesting. It's a list of tips from Karen Nimmo. She's a clinical psychologist on how to survive breakup season. You don't want to break up, but you feel like things are a bit rocky in your relationship at the moment. So here's some tips. First one is don't panic if your relationship's a bit rough. She said that all relationships don't always go uphill. There's ups and downs, but you can survive them if you acknowledge it together. Just acknowledge that you're in a rough patch,
Starting point is 00:33:12 talk about it, and you should be fine. Sounds like a lot of effort. Also sounds like an opportunity for them to go, yeah, I'm not really into it anymore. I've been meaning to talk to you about this. Tip number two, keep your holiday plans low key. If you're trying to have the biggest, most Instagrammable summer, that can put a lot of pressure on a relationship.
Starting point is 00:33:30 So for Christmas, just keep it simple. Keep it easy. Cut some costs. Everything's expensive at the moment. Go to the beach. If you've got kids, just stay close to home. They don't care where you go as long as they can have a swim. It's all good.
Starting point is 00:33:42 They're not going to remember. I like this one. It says, if you're looking to survive breakup season, be really fussy about your social time. Pick the parties, pick the people, duck in and out. Don't stay for too long if you don't want to. Pick the environments that you're most able to relax in. It says, aimless socialising will make you feel worse and not better.
Starting point is 00:34:02 That's why I don't visit one side of my family at Christmas. Here's a tip. You know there's always in every family, you always have your favourite side of the family. I don't know what you're talking about. You always have your favourite side of the family and then the other side of the family. And when you're younger, everyone tries to hang out for Christmas
Starting point is 00:34:20 and then as time goes on, you just hang out with your favourite side of the family. Here's a tip. You do not have hang out with your favourite side of the family. Here's a tip. You do not have to go to your partner's work Christmas party. You don't. I feel like you shouldn't. It's their work.
Starting point is 00:34:36 It's their time to hang out with the people that they work with. Oh, bring Bree along. We'd love to meet her. She's like, this is my weekend. No, thank you. You go have a great time. I already have to go to my work Christmas party. Why would I want to go to your work Christmas party? You can hang out with Greg from HR.
Starting point is 00:34:48 I don't want to. This is the last tip from Karen Nimmo, the clinical psychologist about surviving breakup season. She said, set a shared goal for 2024. Couples benefit from shared goals, but you have to start small. Set a short-term goal that you can both get in behind and contribute to. Something that you know that you guys are going to be able to achieve next year, but you have to work at it together to get there.
Starting point is 00:35:12 Right. Set a goal. I'm going to call my partner and see if we can actually drink a whole bottle of red wine tonight. Yeah, that's a goal. Well, it's achievable. Yeah. You're saying goal. Well, it's achievable. Yeah. You're saying I need to up it? Between two of you. One bottle of red wine between two of you.
Starting point is 00:35:33 Have you not seen the Magnum bottles of red wine they're selling now? I was going to say. Have you seen them? You guys should set a challenge to drink a box of red wine, like the cask. Hey, we're classy ladies. Yeah? Yeah. I wouldn't take it to tie it to a clothesline or anything. That's a fun time. I love that game. They meant tell you to tie it to a clothesline or anything. You can have it in a glass. Oh, that's a fun time.
Starting point is 00:35:46 I love that game. They meant more like a dog or like a... Goon of fortune. Yeah. Good luck, everybody. I'm sure your relationship is going to be just fine. It'll be fine. Just be fine.
Starting point is 00:35:56 Bree and Clint. Bree and Clint's Birthday Banger. Cheers to Big Barrel, where mates look after mates. That's right. Thanks to Big Barrel and their birthday, we're giving away $100 to the birthday banger winner each day at the moment. Easy as that, but we're going to figure out
Starting point is 00:36:11 what was the number one song on your 16th first, and then we'll pick our favourite one. Let's start with Jack. Kia ora, Jack. G'day, Jack. Afternoon, team. How are we doing? Not too bad. How's your day been? Oh, pretty rough, to be honest. Why? I'm still just recovering from the weekend.
Starting point is 00:36:27 It was my birthday. Jeez. Jack, it's Wednesday. You must have sent it hard, Jack. Well, yeah. Yeah. Probably too much. Yeah, fair.
Starting point is 00:36:38 I like you, Jack. I like a man that can send it hard and have a four-day hangover. Well, I did actually meet you on Thursday night because I flew up to Auckland for Friday's Live. Did you? I did. Oh, you really sent it. If you've been going since Thursday,
Starting point is 00:36:53 no wonder you're still hungover on Wednesday. Exactly. That's my situation. I'm not going to lie, Jack. In between you and I, I sent it also on Thursday at Friday's Live. Oh, yeah, I met you. That's what I'm saying, just between us. It's between us, Jack.
Starting point is 00:37:07 Oh, okay. We won't have a mention. Yeah, no, absolutely. Jack, what's your birthday? It is the 18th of November, 1991. All right, that means you were 16, Jack, in 2007. And back on your 16th, this was at the top. Banger, Veronica's.
Starting point is 00:37:28 Banger. I feel like you and I sung this to each other on Thursday night, Jack. We may have. I think you guys were singing, let's hook up. And then we kissed with tongue. Wait there, Jack. We're going to do a birthday banger for Emily. Kia ora, Emily.
Starting point is 00:37:46 Hi, Emily. Hi, how are you guys? Good, mate. I heard it's your birthday today. It is. It is. It's a big birthday. Happy birthday for you today, Emily.
Starting point is 00:37:58 Thank you. Have you got any prezzies yet? No, my husband's a little sick, but we're going out for dinner, and it's okay. I'll just buy myself one. He's going to have a big present for you at dinner. It's waiting for you at dinner, Emily. Maybe. It'll be a surprise. And if your husband is listening,
Starting point is 00:38:16 get your wife a bloody present now. There you go, Emily. Okay, what year are we talking? I was born 1981. Alright, that means you were 16, Emily. Okay, what year are we talking? I was born 1981. All right, that means you were 16, Emily, in 1997. And on this day in 97, this was number one. Come on, Barbie, let's go party.
Starting point is 00:38:35 Oh, my God. Oh, my God. Barbie Girl. Were you a Barbie Girl fan, Emily? Oh, my God, yes. Yes, you a Barbie Girl fan, Emily? Oh, my God, yes. Yes, that's amazing. I love that song. I feel like it connects with you.
Starting point is 00:38:51 You can remember that from your 16. I can definitely remember that song. And we are in the year of the Barbie movie as well, so it's fitting. Let's do one more birthday banger for Sue. Kia ora, Sue. Hi, Sue. Hi, how are you guys? Good, thanks. How's your week been so banger for Sue. Kia ora, Sue. Hi, Sue. Hi, how are you guys?
Starting point is 00:39:05 Good, thanks. How's your week been so far, Sue? Oh, not too bad. We're over hump day, so it's a downward slide for the weekend. I like that attitude, Sue. Could be worse. You could be as hungover as Jack, right? You're feeling fresh as a daisy right now?
Starting point is 00:39:18 Yes. No, I don't get hungover. Not anymore. No, not good. Sue recovers quickly. She hydrates and she's back on it. Hey, Sue, what's your birthday? 3rd of July, 64. All Yeah, Sue recovers quickly. She hydrates and she's back on it. Hey, Sue, what's your birthday? 3rd of July, 64.
Starting point is 00:39:29 Right, Sue, that means you were 16 in 1980. And back on your 16th birthday, this had a number one hit. Great song. What a banger, Sue. That is a good one. Pseudo Echo, Funky Town. I love that song from Pseudo Echo.
Starting point is 00:39:50 This part just makes me think of the dad from Malcolm in the Middle. Oh, yeah. And he puts the roller skates on. Makes me think of the stoned towel, Towley from South Park. Yes. It's a good one, Sue. We're going to choose between Pseudo Echo, The Veronica's and Aqua. I'm going to vote for The Veronica's.
Starting point is 00:40:13 Yeah, I'm torn between, I like all three songs today and I'm definitely torn between The Veronica's and Aqua. Well, it's Emily's birthday if you want to go Aqua. I've got to go Emily. It's her birthday today. All right, Claude, deciding vote. What's it's Emily's birthday if you want to go Aqua. I've got to go Emily. It's her birthday today. All right, Claude, deciding vote. What's it going to be? No, you can't make me vote against the birthday girl.
Starting point is 00:40:32 Emily, you're taking home the $100 from Big Barrel, my friend. Oh, yay. Thanks so much. Because your bloody husband didn't get you anything, so we'll hook you. Happy birthday, mate. Oh, baby. You're welcome.
Starting point is 00:40:45 Have a good night, mate. I'm a Barbie girl in the Barbie world. Laughing plastic. It's fantastic. Bree and Clint. Do you know the difference between no caller ID slash unknown caller? Nah, I thought they were the same thing. That's what I always, I've never really thought about it. Unknown number. Unknown number, unknown caller? Nah, I thought they were the same thing. That's what I always, I've never really thought about it.
Starting point is 00:41:06 Unknown number. Unknown number, unknown caller versus no caller ID. No, but now that you mention it, I do get both come up on my phone. They're different. Are they? Yeah. Okay, what's the difference? Apparently they're different.
Starting point is 00:41:20 So apparently no caller ID, which can be called, depending on your phone settings, can come up as a private number. Oh, your private number is another one. Or anonymous number, depending on what type of phone you have. But no caller ID essentially means that the person calling you has either, has intentionally blocked or hidden their number so you can't see who's calling. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 00:41:43 Right? Whereas unknown caller actually means that your mobile operator couldn't actually identify the number, which in short means probably a scam. Or someone from overseas. Or someone from overseas. So probably a scam. Probably a scam.
Starting point is 00:42:02 Oh, buzzy. I never thought about it like that. Yeah. I always answer the no caller IDs or the unknown numbers because I can't handle not knowing who it was calling me. You don't think that they're going to leave a message? No. If they don't, I'll be like, who was that?
Starting point is 00:42:17 Who was trying to get a hold of me? What was the thing that they needed to talk to me about? So I actually always answer them. Do you? Yeah. That's a great, that's an interesting point that you make because I feel like we should play a game where essentially the game is we have to call people on private number and if they pick up,
Starting point is 00:42:39 then you get a point and if they don't pick up, then you're out. So you need to call the person. So I should be calling someone who I think will answer our private number, right? Yes. Who in your context do you think will definitely answer a private number? This person is quite affable. They're always up for a chat. And the person I'm calling, I know they're on their phone right now
Starting point is 00:43:00 because I've just been chatting to them on Messenger. Not about this. You haven't told them about this game? No, I promise you I haven't told them about this game? No, I promise you I haven't told them about this. Because that's breaking the rules. We're going to call Guy Williams and see if he will
Starting point is 00:43:10 pick up his phone. Alright. See if he'll answer an unknown number. Oh, now that I'm doing it I'm second guessing myself. Oh no. It's a private number.
Starting point is 00:43:21 The person you have dialled can take your phone out. When you've finished recording... He didn't just not answer. He screened it. It didn't ring long enough. Oh, did he reject it? Yeah, that was a full reject.
Starting point is 00:43:32 Isn't that funny? Okay, hand me the number. I'm torn. Wait, I'm torn. Because it's either going to be my mum or my dad, but my mum hasn't been answering as much. But we ring her off air all the time. Oh, you want someone who will answer. Exactly.
Starting point is 00:43:46 That's the game. I thought we were going to call your partner. Nah, she's at work. We're going to call my dad, who's not someone we call all the time. But I feel like my dad, being the boomer he is, will have to answer because he'll think he's missed out on a good price on some bull semen or something. Yeah, that's usually what people are calling him, aren't they?
Starting point is 00:44:08 Yeah. Yeah. Call from America about some bull semen that he's put a bid on. Yeah, American bull semen's good stuff. It's expensive. Yeah. Okay, come on, Big Steve. Come on, Big Steve.
Starting point is 00:44:24 Come on. What? Well, howdy, children. Steve here. Sorry I missed your call. This is one of the great voicemails, by the way. I'll be back as soon as I can. See you, partner.
Starting point is 00:44:40 Let me leave a message. Yeah, good day, Steve. Just called about that low-priced bull semen. I guess I'll... Call me back. I guess I'll offload it to someone else. Oh. Drop out.
Starting point is 00:44:56 Yeah. Oh. So we were just getting into our good bull semen gear. I know. That's all right. Dad will appreciate it. Does that mean neither of us win? Yeah, no. Should we play next week? Yeah. Dad will appreciate it. Does that mean neither of us win? Yeah, no.
Starting point is 00:45:05 Should we play next week? Yeah. Play again next week. Why not next week? Let's play tomorrow. Okay. I've got nothing planned for the show tomorrow. Neither. Let's play again tomorrow then. I want to talk about getting upgraded. Different areas of life where you can get
Starting point is 00:45:21 upgraded. Planes. Great. Hotels. Planes. Great. Hotels. Love it. Concerts. Yes. Sporting games. Yes. What else?
Starting point is 00:45:35 Restaurant bookings. Restaurant bookings. There's a million things. Anywhere where you make a reservation, really, you can often, sometimes, not often, sometimes, if you're lucky, get an upgrade. I'm not an upgraded person. I don't get upgrades. I don't think I ever have received an upgrade just by chance.
Starting point is 00:45:53 Neither. You get upgraded all the time, mainly because you ask for it. Shh, I don't. I do not ask for it. Oh, you'll send an email being like, hey, just wanted to let you know I'm free If you have any free tickets
Starting point is 00:46:09 In the corporate box That's not being upgraded That's That's just blagging your way up Yeah that's just asking Yeah yeah Asking for it There's a woman
Starting point is 00:46:18 Who I'm having a bit of a golden run I'll give you that But I didn't ask for it Okay Didn't ask for it Anyway move on Not about me You wouldn't say Talking about it on the radio and by chance if someone hears it
Starting point is 00:46:31 isn't asking no okay just check i just wanted to check i just want to clarify no okay move on it's not about me okay i want to talk about this woman who is a um flight attendant and she's talking about the different ways people try and ask her for an upgrade once they're already on the flight, which everyone knows once you're on the flight, there's no getting upgraded. They put you in your seat.
Starting point is 00:46:57 Exactly. But she says it doesn't stop people from trying to get an upgrade to first class. Okay. I always have passengers like ask me if they can move to first class, say if someone's like running late and I just say, ha ha ha ha ha.
Starting point is 00:47:11 And usually they're like, yeah, I'm joking. There have been multiple times that men have hit on me thinking that I'm going to move them to first class because they told me I was pretty. Just a few months ago, this guy walked on the flight and was like, you're so pretty. Like this is the most beautiful cabin crew i've ever seen and he's like yeah also like i see there's a first class seat open like i would love
Starting point is 00:47:30 to take it please let me know if any first class seats are open and i literally dead ass looked at him and i was like oh i'm not gonna take that compliment now because i know you're just trying to use me for first class he's like no no no that's not what I meant. She's savage. Not savage. I agree with her. No, no, she's right. But usually the flight attendant would just go, we'll let you know. No, I love it.
Starting point is 00:47:53 I love the approach. Yeah, I think it's good. Now I know why you gave me a compliment. He would have been so put at his place. Idiots. Can I just say idiots? Idiots. If you want an upgrade,
Starting point is 00:48:03 it's all about greasing up the person at the chicken counter. And show them your boobs. Yeah. I would. Or your muscles. If I had the decision, like if someone said to me, like I tried to get an upgrade and it was a long haul flight and they said, if you come around out the back, show me your boob, we'll put you in first class, I'd say, boom, sign me up.
Starting point is 00:48:22 You can, one boob will get you first class. Mate, I've got pretty good boobs. No, but you're only showing them one, you said. Yeah, one. That's how good they are. Just one boob. Yeah, just one. I'll just lift up the side like that.
Starting point is 00:48:32 I reckon you'd get premium economy for one. Mate, don't tell me what my boobs are worth. They're premium economy boobs. Mate, my boobs are first class Emirates. They're first class. They're the cubicle first class Emirates. They're first class. They're the cubicle first class. You reckon one of your boobs is enough to go first class on an Emirates flight? Maybe on an Emirates flight I'd have to show two.
Starting point is 00:48:54 But they're worth it. Okay, look, I'm not going to disagree with you. Well, you can't. You just have to take my word for it. Don't you? I feel strange. I'm negotiating against you on your own boobs. Yeah, I was going to say,
Starting point is 00:49:12 why are you telling me what grade my boobs are? We're going to ask you guys this afternoon. I know $800. Would you show your boobs to get upgraded? No, I'm just kidding. Have your boobs got you upgraded? We're not going to ask that. Have you been upgraded?
Starting point is 00:49:27 Yes. Anywhere? And what did you do to get that upgrade? It doesn't necessarily need to be on a flight. No. It can be in a hotel. Yes. It can be at a sporting game.
Starting point is 00:49:36 It can be anything. Do you have like an upgrade hack that you want to share with people this afternoon? Something that just works to get you into a better spot on the thing, whatever it is. I thought we covered the best way. Oh yeah, one single boob. Well, it depends what your boobs are. Show them a picture of one of Bree's boobs and you'll get an upgrade. That might get you premium economy, a picture.
Starting point is 00:49:56 Oh, 800 dials at M. Or you can text it to 9696. Where were you upgraded? What did you do? How good was it? We'd love to hear about it this afternoon. Bree and Clint. To the person who texted through asking that they needed to see photo evidence to see if I had first class boobs. Yes.
Starting point is 00:50:14 I'll just have to take my word for it. Or they'll have to work somewhere that you want to get upgraded. That's a great point. That's the trade. That's a great point. You don't get the boob for free. If you work at Air New Zealand, potentially our paths could cross and you could confirm or deny. Air New Zealand KFC drive-thru.
Starting point is 00:50:31 KFC drive-thru is a good one. Upgrade you to large. Yeah. We'll do it for a large. I mean, large. I'd want a whole family first. True, true, true. True, true, true.
Starting point is 00:50:42 But we're asking you this afternoon. I keep underselling your boobs. Yeah, stop underselling them. You haven't even seen them. My friend Bree will only show you one of her boobs for a full family pack of chicken. Exactly. Okay?
Starting point is 00:50:55 Make it two buckets. Two buckets. Two buckets. Hot and spicy. Two buckets for two boobs. That seems fair. That's how it works. Rebecca's here.
Starting point is 00:51:02 And the bucket needs to be all breasts. Breasts for breasts. Yeah, I love a breast. Rebecca's here. Hi. Hello needs to be all breasts. Breasts for breasts. Yeah, I love a breast. Rebecca's here. Hi. Hello, Bec. Hi, hey, guys. How are you?
Starting point is 00:51:09 We're good. I had to ring because I did get upgraded recently. Oh, yes. I'm a nurse, and I was travelling to Kuala Lumpur, and they stuffed all my tickets up. Yeah. And I was sitting there waiting, and they called me to come to business class
Starting point is 00:51:23 through Singapore Airlines. Yes, they did, Bec. Was it because you were a nurse? Were they like, hey, thank you for your service. They wouldn't have known that she was a nurse. No, they didn't know. I'm not sure why, but it's because, you know, obviously it's paid for, minimum
Starting point is 00:51:40 pay for bonus. Oh, I see what you're saying. Yeah, yeah. Somebody, somebody, somebody decided to upgrade me and I don't know who it was. Karma. Don't ask any questions. Is it who it was, Be I see what you're saying. Yeah, yeah. Somebody, somebody, somebody decided to upgrade me and I don't know who it was. Karma. Don't ask any questions. Is who it was, Beck, because you're a good human
Starting point is 00:51:50 doing good work. Yeah. How nice. It was amazing. I was going to say, how nice was it? What airline was it on, Beck? Singapore Airlines.
Starting point is 00:51:58 Oh, yeah, that's a nice one. That's a good one. You feel bad sleeping on those ones because you're like, I have to soak all of this up. Yeah. I have to enjoy all of it. It's so true.
Starting point is 00:52:06 Holden's here. Hi, Holden. Hi, Holden. Hey, guys. Tell us, Holden, what did you get upgraded? So it's another in New Zealand one. I travel a lot to work, but I don't have enough points to be gold or elite status. Okay.
Starting point is 00:52:23 So I do all my group bookings with someone who's got gold or elite status. Smart. And then I get free seat upgrades and entry to the lounge. That is so clever. Extra baggage allowance and, yeah. That's such a good life hack. You just ride on the coattails of someone who does have the upgrades. Yeah, pretty much.
Starting point is 00:52:44 Genius. And you get your bags out first as well. Yeah, nice work, Holden. That's a great life hack. I love this text that's come through. In 2010, going to France from Singapore, an ice, oh, there was a volcano that erupted and we got stuck in Singapore for four days and put on a wait list.
Starting point is 00:53:05 It was so bloody hot and I was in stubbies and jandals and a singlet. We were the last names to be called up to fill the flight and being the last seats, they were first class. Boom. The first class passengers weren't impressed when they saw me walking through. Looking like I was about to mow the lawns.
Starting point is 00:53:23 And your jandals. Perfect. I would have loved that. What about this text? I was offered an upgrade and I had to decline. My wife would have killed me if I'd left her with the two kids back in economy. Yeah, once you have kids, things get messy. No kids, you take the upgrade.
Starting point is 00:53:41 No, no, no, no. She will kill you for not taking the upgrade for her. If she finds out you turned down an upgrade. Can you do that, though? I think you can. I think you can go. You might be able to. Because what are they going to do?
Starting point is 00:53:53 You go, I'll take the upgrade, but can you please do it on my wife's ticket? They're not going to go. Nah, not for her. Let's talk to Chantel. G'day, Chantel. Hi, guys. You got upgraded last night, Chantel. Yeah, guys. You got upgraded last night, Chantel. Yeah, so we were in Auckland for Post Malone,
Starting point is 00:54:09 and we got a text Monday night saying that our accommodation couldn't accommodate us because they were fully booked out. Okay. Yeah. Yeah, so our $380 two-bedroom suite at the Barclays Suites turned into the $2,000 a night suite at Hotel Britter Mart. You're shitting me, Chantel. You got like the top-notch suite at the really nice brand new hotel. Yeah, like insane.
Starting point is 00:54:40 Who paid for it? Who upgraded you? So Expedia. So they said, I mean, it's not our fault it was sort of fell on the hotel, but because we booked through them. They cover it. It's on us, yeah. That is a life hack as well.
Starting point is 00:54:55 Did you live it up in that suite for the night? Absolutely. How good. It was breakfast in the morning. Yeah. Is breakfast included with the $2,000 hotel room? Yeah, so we got the valet parking, wine and revival, breakfast, everything. Oh, God, you can't go back now, Shawnee.
Starting point is 00:55:15 No, you're spoiled. So good. Other half live. They're coming through left, right and centre, all these upgrades, and not a single person had to flash one of their boobs to get it. Yeah, I think they just leave that detail out. Oh, right. Because they don't want other people to cotton on to that's how you get it
Starting point is 00:55:32 and then everyone's going to be doing it. Yeah, right. And then, you know, it just ruins it. VIP to tease. Yeah. True. That's a good point. Bree and Clint.
Starting point is 00:55:39 We are the leading show for maritime and aviation-based news, trying to get up there for space-related news. That's right. And I feel like this story will get us a few points on the board. Okay. So the Australian Space Agency has partnered... Oh, it's not a good start. Wait, the Australian Space Agency?
Starting point is 00:56:02 Yeah, the ASA. So it is ASA? Yeah, ASA. I took a guess before. But turns out it is ASA. It's ASA. Instead of NASA, it's ASA. They've teamed up with NASA though to design and build
Starting point is 00:56:18 an Australian made rover as a part of this program where they're going to send it up to the moon. An Aussie space rover? Yeah. Look at that. Isn't that wild?
Starting point is 00:56:29 Has it got like a holding badge on the front of it? I think so. It's a V8. It's a V8 rover. Good, good, good. So apparently they're going to launch it as early as 2026, but it's already begun and they've already started to make the rover that they're going
Starting point is 00:56:45 to send to space. Wow. And something that they've been doing is taking name suggestions from different people on a website survey. Bad idea. You know, we can't be trusted with names. I know. You're going to get Spacey McSpaceface.
Starting point is 00:56:58 It's not. Isn't it? Do you want to hear that? These are the top four names that people are now voting on that they've taken from suggestions. So the first name that they've taken is Kulamon, which is an Indigenous word for multi-purpose sustainable tool used for gathering and carrying. Nice idea.
Starting point is 00:57:17 Which is essentially what a rover is. Then you've got Kakira, which is another Indigenous word which translates to moon. Then you've got kakira, which is another Indigenous word, which translates to moon. Then you've got mateship, which apparently comes from the Anzac spirit. And then the last one, which is my favourite, is roover. Roover. Like a kangaroo slash rover. That's a rover.
Starting point is 00:57:40 Roover. Not bad, not bad. Not bad. I think it could be better. I've got some ideas we can do better than this. Yeah, let's rattle off some ideas. Okay, what have you got? The first one that I thought I would put into the mix is we call the rover Ben.
Starting point is 00:57:53 Ben? Ben Rover. Yep, Ben Rover. She's an Aussie rover, right? She's an Aussie rover, yep. So I thought we could call her Rover McMoonus. Rover. Rove McManus.
Starting point is 00:58:09 Oh, it's good. It's good. I like it. Well, it's not good if I have to explain it. No, I'm just not smart enough. What about, I mean, you can just go with the classic. You call it Rangey Rover. Rangey Rover?
Starting point is 00:58:21 Yeah. What about the Holden Club Sport Moon Edition? What about, because it sweeps the ground and collects things, you could call it Meryl Sweep. Meryl Sweep, yeah. Wait, is she Australian? No, she's not. It doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:58:40 It doesn't matter. The Tasmoonian Devil. The Tasmoonian Devil is good. What about we call it Move Rover? Move Rover. Yeah, that's good. Yeah. I mean, you could go with the classic child's game, Red Rover, Red Rover.
Starting point is 00:58:57 Yeah. You could put it in a purple skivvy and call it Jeff. Jeff Rover. No, Jeff from the Wiggles. I'm going for Australian references. I thought that's all we were doing here. I was just going for anything that I thought might sound funny.
Starting point is 00:59:14 You could say, wake up, Jeff. Yeah, that was a stretch more so than the other one, I think. What was your other one? The Rove McManus one? Rover McMoonas. That's my favourite, I think. I think we go with that.
Starting point is 00:59:27 Good, because my last idea was just to call it Elf Stewart, so. Yeah, Flaming Galah! Play ZM's Brand Clint. On Insta, Facebook, TikTok and live weekdays from 3 on ZM. Feed by KFC. Get the full menu delivered to your door with the KFC app. Play ZM.
