Starting point is 00:03:49 There was one of yours that I reckon was on par. Like we both had one really bad one. Why would you make a podcast highlighting that? Well, it's, you know. Entertaining. No, it's Friday Oaky and then that's it's done now. Like she said, people like to listen to our podcast to feel better about themselves. We don't do Friday-oke to impress people.
Starting point is 00:04:09 We do it to make them laugh. Speak for yourself. To be laughed at. I'm on an upward trajectory. Oh, mate. Why is that not? You've had some shockers. You had a few bad ones.
Starting point is 00:04:20 Yeah, but I subscribed to the Tiger Woods 10,000 hours school. Was it close work from home? That was pretty bad. What others were there? There was one that really stood out. Was it a chick song that we made? Sweet Child of Mine? No, no, that was really good.

Starting point is 00:05:56 Anastasia's been stalking that family for seven years. Oh no. This has slipped through the Anastasia net. Maybe it's her mum's friend then. I don't know.

Starting point is 00:06:43 Do you want us to turn our mics off or you turn yours off? It just smells like blue cheese. I thought that too, yeah. Anyway, back to the podcast. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, buzzy, man. If you didn't like their album, give it a second nudge. There's some really good pearls on it.
Starting point is 00:06:56 I have. Could become her best over time. It's immature as like a cheese. I do love the Lord mashup. Oh, we've got to go. We've got to go. We've got to go. We've got to go. Here's the podcast. Great to be back. Love you all. Bye-bye.
Starting point is 00:07:12 Bye-bye. Oh, cutie everybody. That's Flash. That's new, isn't it? We're back, baby. That's Flash. That's new, isn't it? We're back, baby. That's right. It is 2022. And just like COVID-19, we're back. And just like COVID-19, we ain't going anywhere for a while.
Starting point is 00:07:37 We are spreading in the community as we speak. No, that was our producer. You thought you got rid of us in 2021, but no, we're back. No, the only one spreading in the community over the holidays was producer Anastasia. She was everywhere! Wasn't she? Oh, she was deltering all over the shop.
Starting point is 00:07:54 She's the index case. She really was. No, don't say that. She's the one they're trying to locate at the moment. She was being safe, but she just, I mean, hot girl summer, baby. Ashley Bloomfield, if you're looking for her, she's currently at 2 Graham Street in Auckland City. We can swab her if it's easier.
Starting point is 00:08:10 We can swab her. Actually, I want to know, because obviously that's producer Anastasia. She had a fantastic holiday. I followed it all on Instagram. Producer Ben, you were hiking all over New Zealand. That looked incredible. Oh, he's forgotten how to use his mic.
Starting point is 00:08:26 It's not me who's forgotten. It's Clint. Yep, off the grid, mate. No phone. For linear hikes, it was good. So how many days did you hike for? Maybe in total, seven. Not in a row, though.
Starting point is 00:08:38 Do you reckon it makes him sexier? I think it makes producer Ben sexier. A man in the bush. Yeah, he's self-sufficient. Yeah, he knows his way around the bush. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Doesn't he just? Yeah, it's been a good summer, everybody.
Starting point is 00:08:50 What have you been up to? Me? Yeah, you've been doing bits and pieces. You were DJing in Wellington. DJing in Wellington on the Saturday before the apocalypse. Just gone. Yep, and then before that you were filming things. You were at the beach with your kids.
Starting point is 00:09:06 Yeah, I had about 14 spray tans for TV. Legit, I didn't want to get any spray tans, but they said to me, please, you have to have one. Oh, I know. You look unwell. That's funny because I know the makeup people that were working on you, and they told me it was the opposite. You said you demanded a spray tan booth in your dressing room.
Starting point is 00:09:23 Yeah, that was after the first one. I demanded the other 13, yeah. You've had a good summer? Yeah, I've had a fantastic summer. I've been to a few festivals, put lots of sunscreen on. What else have I been doing? You must have taken Anastasia's share of the sunscreen because she does not want to drop.

Something I feel like a lot of people would have had over the holidays is a lot of the time with their kids. I mean, they have had a lot of time with their kids because of COVID,
Starting point is 00:14:16 but especially holidays. The last two years have been a lot of time with your own kids. You've really got to know how annoying your own kids are. Hey, your word's not mine. Hey, I'm just saying the things you want to say. No, but it's something that, you know, obviously parents have to come up with things for the kids to play. They have to entertain them, do all that kind of thing.
Starting point is 00:14:39 And I feel like this story will be quite relatable to a lot of parents listening right now. Right. Because there's a story uh i'm pretty sure it's from the states uh and it's about a mum who left her 22 month old kid uh alone for five minutes okay and what this kid has managed to achieve in those five minutes is pretty amazing okay so the story is uh this mum was wanting some new furniture for their house. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:07 So she was on a website and she did what we all do. She put a bunch of different furniture into her cart and then obviously once she got to her, you know, the payment stage, you delete all the stuff you don't want. That's what everyone does. Anyway, so she said she had about 20 or 30 items in her cart. Okay. Ready to go.
Starting point is 00:15:28 All furniture items. All furniture. Right. And some of the same thing, you know. Okay. There's two couches, you know, because she was deciding on what she wanted. Yeah. Anyway, her toddler managed to grab a hold of her phone and he pressed purchase
Starting point is 00:15:45 and all of that furniture was delivered to their house. On a house load full of furniture? Yeah. Thousands of dollars worth of furniture. I mean, at least, I mean, if she was on the fence, at least the decision's been taken out of her hands. Exactly. You know, maybe he was doing her a favour.
Starting point is 00:16:07 Yeah. And he was like, you need to make a decision. Look, Mum, I've been watching you wonder over this for days and now you need to bite the bullet and make a decision. And I'm sure the kid's not dumb. I'm sure he looked over the purchases and said, yep, that goes with the decor. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:21 Absolutely. He's considered, and I mean, unless she's raised an idiot. It was even more amazing because he put in some, you know, some discount codes and he had all that. Yeah, he was really onto it. He said, I've been watching the block, mum. If you put this in, freedom will actually knock it down a bit.
Starting point is 00:16:35 So it's worked out well. Yeah. Yeah, wow. You know what's scary is how good kids are. At phones. And how young. Yeah. Like, where they, this kid was able to get onto the phone, like unlock the phone himself, get onto the website,
Starting point is 00:16:52 and make a full purchase. That's the issue with having a kid that looks like you as well, is the face ID. I know. Recognize the kid. I know. Yeah, okay.
Starting point is 00:17:00 Wow, you look good today. Come on in. Spend your thousands of dollars. Just go straight into the phone. Devastating, but expensive. Listen, I wonder good today. Come on in. Spend your thousands of dollars. Just go straight into the phone. Devastating but expensive. Listen, I wonder if the furniture store would take it back. I'm pretty sure. I did read further into the story.
Starting point is 00:17:12 Yeah. And the furniture store were pretty understanding. It's crack up, right? It is. They found it pretty funny. And they said, look, you can keep the stuff that you actually wanted and send back all of the other stuff you don't want. She's like, none of it.
Starting point is 00:17:26 I don't want any of it. I've seen it in my house now. It's awful. I hate all of it. Yeah, yeah, take it. I thought we could take calls this afternoon because I feel like over the holiday break, this would be happening a lot where your kid gets a hold of your phone
Starting point is 00:17:38 or your laptop or your iPad. Especially if you give it to them to keep them quiet while you're at a cafe or you're on a road trip or something. And you don't know what they're doing on there. No, you don't know what they're doing. They're signing you up for, you know, a dating website or something. Yeah, it was the kid. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:17:51 Yeah, it was the kid who did that. Yeah. That's a good excuse. 0800 DIAL ZM. What did your kid do when they got a hold of your technology? You can text us also on 9696. We'd love to hear from you this afternoon. How much did that little miracle cost you?
Starting point is 00:18:08 We're talking about what your kids have been up to over the holiday break on your phones because I feel like most kids these days are more up with technology than what we are. We're slowly moving into that age group, Clint. What, that we need tech support? Yes, where the kids are taking over us already. I'm telling you, it's happening.
Starting point is 00:18:29 Yeah, well, do you know what an NFT is? No idea. They do. Yeah, I bet they do. They've already got them. They probably bought six of them. Yeah, they've got like 50 Bitcoin. It's the beginning of the end for us.
Starting point is 00:18:39 Anyway, there's a story about a woman who found out her toddler had made a purchase after she'd put all these different furniture items in her cart and she was going to obviously pick and choose and you know everyone does that. You delete the ones you don't want. Do you know stores hate that by the way? When you put something in your cart
Starting point is 00:18:57 Well when you put something in your cart it takes it off the virtual shelf so someone else comes in to buy it and they've already allocated it to you. So if it sits in your cart for a week, then that person, they can't sell it to somebody else. But I'm also that person when I go in store and I ask them if they can put all these things on hold for me
Starting point is 00:19:15 and I don't come back. Because I can't make a decision. Anyway, the toddler ended up making the purchase and bought all of the furniture items which got sent to the house. Oosh. And they were very confused. So we're asking you this afternoon on 0800DIALZM, what did your kids do with your technology?
Starting point is 00:19:34 Will, say hi, Will. Hi, Will. G'day. G'day. What's happening, mate? Our lovely daughter somehow got into my wife's iPhone. I think she'd just left it unlocked to go and do something with it. Got them to trade me.
Starting point is 00:19:46 And then a little while later found out we'd bought a car. It was one that wasn't going. It was an old Holden or Ford or something. It was 15 grand. 15 grand for a car that doesn't work. I mean, how many kilometres did it have on it? Did she get a good deal? Oh, well, happily, I contacted the guy,
Starting point is 00:20:07 and he was really good about it, and he said, like, it's all right, we'll just relist it. Did he make you pay, like, a success fee or anything? Did he charge you anything? No, he was really good about it, really understanding. It was a very awkward conversation. Well, can I ask, and this is obviously a super personal question, and feel free not to answer it if you want,
Starting point is 00:20:26 but are you a Holden man or a Ford man? Generally, I support the Holdens over the mountain. Oh, well, lucky she bought a Holden then. Yeah, well, actually, I can't remember what the Holden was. It might have been a Ford. You can't care that much then, right? Because it would go one or two ways. If you did care, this would either be your crowning glory,
Starting point is 00:20:45 you'd go, my daughter bought a Holden Tarana sight unseen. Yeah, I knew she was my daughter. Yeah, or my daughter bought a Ford Falcon and I've never been more disappointed in my own offspring in my life. Well, you know, if she'd bought a WRX SDI Possum born replica,
Starting point is 00:21:02 I would have been pretty stoked. There it is. Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's a rally fan. Okay. Well, well done, Will. I hope you've got a passcode on your wife's phone now and you can avoid that sort of thing.
Starting point is 00:21:10 A few people texting through. Someone said, my three-year-old air-dropped my naughty photos to random people in a restaurant. Oh. I would die. Whoa. Because they're right there.
Starting point is 00:21:23 Yeah. You know, like if it happens... Well, they don't know What phone it came from Oh I guess they could Put two and two together Look at the photo Look at the face
Starting point is 00:21:29 And kids This is why you never Put your face in the photos Bree and Clint Let's go live to Los Angeles With Dean McCarthy From iHeartRadio This is the latest

Starting point is 00:21:54 We've gone too long. Never again. Have you had a big, sexy, hot winter? It's winter where you are, isn't it? Yeah. It's winter here, but let me just say this. I've been heating it up. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:04 Sure. Yeah. I bet you have. up. Yeah. Sure. Yeah. I bet you have. Hey, tell us what's going on with Adele. She's having some major dramas with her concerts, and she's not taking it well. Oh, she's not taking it well at all. That's a great way to put it.
Starting point is 00:22:16 So let me set the scene for you. So Adele doing like a Las Vegas residency. When she announced it, the tickets sold out in the first day. It is so popular. Some have had the resale tickets are going for $30,000. It is so wild, right? Anyway, let me say, so she's got this residency. She's all planned.
Starting point is 00:22:33 One day before the first show, she goes on Twitter and she says this. She's like, guys, I'm sorry. I have to stop the show. I can't do the show. We're not ready. Have a listen. Here's some audio of Adele breaking down on Twitter. Check it out.
Starting point is 00:22:51 Hi, listen, I'm so sorry sorry but my show ain't ready we've tried absolutely everything that we can to put it together and for it to be good enough for you but we've been absolutely destroyed by delivery delays and covid oh she sounds wow so upset like genuinely like she has been crying and wants to cry. Well, you've got to remember too, the last major show she tried to put on was the finale of her 2015 tour when she booked Wembley Arena, Wembley Stadium, the big one, and lost her voice. Remember her voice at the end of the tour? I don't remember that. Did that happen?
Starting point is 00:23:22 Yeah, she couldn't do her finale show. And at that stage, she said she was retiring from touring. She wasn't Did that happen? Yeah, she couldn't do her finale show. And at that stage, she said she was retiring from touring. She wasn't going to tour again. And she couldn't do her last show. Yes, and she couldn't do her last one. So then this as well. Yeah, people are angry. I've seen like on TikTok people making videos about how much money
Starting point is 00:23:36 they spent on flights, accommodation, and the tickets to the show. And I think what people are most angry about is like how close it was. Like people were already in Vegas to see the show, and I think what people are most angry about is, like, how close it was. Like, people were already in Vegas to see the show. Like, it was two days out. Yep. You know? And that's what people were really upset at. I've got a tidbit, though.
Starting point is 00:23:57 I don't know if this is true. This might be just a hideous lie. So let's just use the word allegedly. Yeah. Okay. This is being right. So, obviously, look, there's no nice way to put it. A lot of people in America are ill and COVID is very rampant over here.
Starting point is 00:24:07 So that's one thing. She said a lot of her team have been under the weather. She also said huge delivery delays. That is true. You can't even buy something on Amazon. It's a mess. But the third thing I heard was that the Caesars Palace, right, that's where the show is going to be, they wanted her to do,
Starting point is 00:24:21 when she performed Skyfall, they wanted her to have a 60-person choir. Imagine the big, you know, the curtains pull back, there's 60 people, drama. She was like, no, no, no, no, no, no. I just want me and my voice. I want to pull it right back. They're used to Celine Dion. Okay, so you look up drama on the internet
Starting point is 00:24:39 and there's a picture of Celine Dion. Like, you know, she is drama.com. So they wanted like, you know, fabulous, but apparently there was like a huge rift between them and Adele over this. I don't know if that
Starting point is 00:24:49 postponed the show. I'm not saying it did. I'm just saying there was a little bit of a drama, a little bit of tidbit in there. And as you said, like people had already
Starting point is 00:24:55 gotten to Vegas. Flights are expensive. They booked their hotel. They booked their babysitter. They booked everything. So you'd be devoed. And they would have thinking, they'd be thinking,
Starting point is 00:25:03 you would have had some idea before one day out Yeah, well that's what people are saying How did you leave it? Well there you go Interesting because if it was in New Zealand 60 person choir and Adele Only 39 people could go to the show That's a very good point
Starting point is 00:25:19 Very intimate gig Red Light Life baby That is the latest Live out of Los Angeles With our Hollywood correspondent, Dean McCarthy. It's good to laugh about these things. You've got to laugh. You've got to laugh.
Starting point is 00:25:28 Or else we would cry. Yeah, yeah, yeah. These guys snuck their concert in there just in time. This is LAB. Thank you, Dean. Thanks, Dean. And our Hollywood correspondent, live out of LA. Brian Clint.
Starting point is 00:25:38 A semi-important message from the Christchurch police. I say semi-important because, well, with the change in alert levels, it's not really relevant anymore. Okay. But I'll read it out because, look, it is important either way, so you need to be aware of this. Christchurch Police have asked concert goers
Starting point is 00:25:56 to consider their alcohol consumption ahead of heading into gigs, pleading, just absolutely begging, Anastasia and her friends to stop preloading before they head to concerts in the Garden City. Well, I mean, look, I will stand up and produce Anastasia here because I attended quite a few festivals over the holidays
Starting point is 00:26:19 and I ran into Anastasia on a few occasions and she was a good level eight and a half, I reckon. Before, during or after the gig? This was like late, late into the gig. I want to say 8.30, 9 o'clock. That's because she drinks them all before the gig and by that stage she'd started to sober up. And then she's too cheap.
Starting point is 00:26:41 I got a pay rise last year, which started the whole drinkette festival thing and that's a really good point that you bring up you just don't spend over a hundred bucks the drinks are so expensive at the gigs so that's where the preloading comes into it yeah I mean you know you gotta preload responsibly
Starting point is 00:26:59 though if you find a nice guy he'll normally shout you wait are you using a nice guy, he'll normally... Shout you? Yeah. Wait, are you using a different type of purse? Sergeant Dave Robertson said that they're having to turn intoxicated people away from the gigs. But that's not really going to be an issue anymore, is it?
Starting point is 00:27:23 Because the gigs are off. I'll just be drinking at home. Party! Linda McAllister from Rangitike has listed her husband John on Trade Me because she is sick of his shit. This is good stuff, Linda. This is good stuff.
Starting point is 00:27:41 John spontaneously abandoned his wife and their kids to go on a fishing trip last week. So Linda snapped and whacked him up on Trade Me. And it's my pleasure to welcome to the show great New Zealander, Linda McAllister. Good afternoon. Hi, how's it going? Linda, what you really are is an entrepreneur. That's what you are. I mean, great idea, Linda.
Starting point is 00:28:06 How did you come up with it? We were just having a chat about how I could trade him when he decided he was going fishing and I thought maybe I will. I love it so much. I think you have done what a lot of women in New Zealand would like to do. And I say this as a husband too. I know we can get annoying and I know sometimes you want to just trade us in. So you've tried to do just that.
Starting point is 00:28:29 I want to read you some of the things Linda's written about John. She said, she's been complimentary. Okay. She said standing- Well, she's trying to get rid of him. She wants to get the best price possible. You got to talk him up, eh?
Starting point is 00:28:40 You got to lie. I can find a peeling. Standing at an impressive six foot one. Oh, good, he's tall. There you go. Is that a real height or have you talked him up there? He's 5'10". No, no, no, that's a real height.
Starting point is 00:28:50 I'd say he would estimate himself as getting taller if you asked him. Every man does. Okay, right, so you're being honest. He's 6'1". The farmer slash hunter slash fisher has had a number of previous owners but should remain loyal if fed and watered. Okay, that's good. Extremely fond of lengthy pasture and weather conversations.
Starting point is 00:29:10 Classic farmer, right? Suffers from socks-on-the-floor-itis, which I've found to be contagious in younger models and unfortunately recurring as well. Now, can I ask, Linda, how did the interest in John on Trade Me go? Did you get many bites? Not at the beginning. It sort of took off on Tuesday.
Starting point is 00:29:29 There was a lot of people interested, a lot of people that wanted to gift me theirs to offer two for one. Oh, yeah, like a swap, a trade swap. Yeah, trade swaps, yeah. A lot of people wondered if he was any good at DIY, what his vices were, a bit of vet check. Great questions. I've got a few questions for you, Linda his vices were, a bit of vet check. Great questions. I've got a few questions for you, Linda.
Starting point is 00:29:48 Does he come with a waft? He doesn't. I cannot guarantee. No guarantee. Okay, right. Apart from socks, is he toilet trained? Is he housebroken? Sort of.
Starting point is 00:30:00 All right. Linda, look, in terms... Could use some more training. Any strange odours coming from John? Any, sorry? Any leaks? No strange odours. No, no. Could use some more training. Any strange odours coming from John? Any, sorry? Any leaks? No strange odours. No, no.
Starting point is 00:30:08 No leaks? No leaks. I mean, pretty important question, Linda. And I mean, take this in whatever context you want to. Is he running a V8 or is he more of a 1.2, Linda? No, he's definitely V8. Okay, good, good. I like that.
Starting point is 00:30:24 Why are you getting rid of him? That's a tick. That's definitely VA. Okay, good, good. I like that. Why are you getting rid of him? That's a tick. That's a tick. Can I ask, so he buggers off on a fishing trip. You put him on trade meet. How did he react when he found out that he was for sale, your husband? I definitely thought it was quite funny. When all the boys found out and were ringing him,
Starting point is 00:30:41 he was enjoying quite a good laugh. Yeah. He was a bit good that they took it down because he was sure he was going to fetch quite a top dollar. Oh, he thought he was quite valuable. Yeah. Your trade meet did take it down. That is disappointing, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:30:53 They did take it down and violated some of their terms. Now you've got to sell them on the black market. Yeah, true. You've got to go underground. Yeah, probably. I know some ladies out there, Linda, who are looking for a deal. Don't talk about me when I'm sitting in front of you. We'll talk off the air, Linda.
Starting point is 00:31:13 We'll talk off the air, yeah. We'll talk off the air. Yeah, right. Well, sorry that you haven't been able to fob off your husband. We're looking at a picture of John now. And I say this in the nicest way. He looks like a cheeky little shit. I can see why you're trying to get rid of him., and I say this in the nicest way. He looks like a cheeky little shit. I can see why you're trying to get rid of him.
Starting point is 00:31:27 Look, I mean, you know, Linda, you can do what everyone else did. Trade me didn't work, but if you really want to get rid of him, go to Facebook marketplace. Yeah, true, true. There'll be no success. That's what I meant by the black market. Oh, did you see what he did in retaliation? No.
Starting point is 00:31:46 He stuck some silage bales on the side of the road saying, cheeky wife, free to a good home. Did he? He did. Did he? Honestly, Linda, drop him off at the SPCA and be done with him. You know? They'll find a home for him.
Starting point is 00:32:01 They'll rehome him. Yeah, yeah, yeah. They're good like that. We're going to do this. I think you've inspired an important conversation, Linda. So we're going to ask our listeners this afternoon, why do you want to sell off your boyfriend or husband? What did they do?
Starting point is 00:32:16 Yeah. What are the reasons why? Yeah, maybe they did it over summer. Or maybe it's an ongoing problem. Why do you want rid of the man in your life? And what are you looking for? What's your asking price? Because Linda, I know you weren't necessarily
Starting point is 00:32:29 interested in a swap but we might get some kind of deal here because you still need help with the kids, right? You still need some hands on the job. Absolutely, Linda. I mean as I said, what an entrepreneur, innovative. You're fantastic, Linda. We appreciate you. Something that's massive in Australia is the Triple J Top 100,
Starting point is 00:32:53 which is the biggest music countdown of the year. And it's based on people's votes. So people vote for obviously all their favourite songs and then they do a big Top 100 countdown. It's very indie hipster cool, isn't it? Yeah. It's quite exclusive. Like, if you've ever listened to Triple J, you probably would have heard a bit of, you know,
Starting point is 00:33:12 welcome back to Triple J. This is a new song by an artist called Wet Badger. Wet Badger's so dope. They're a three-piece from Byron Bay. They started out of their tinny shed in the backyard. Fun fact, they don't actually play any instruments. It's just vibes. So it's a lot of that, right?
Starting point is 00:33:28 But the top 100's awesome, and I thought we could go through what made the top five in the top 100 triple day countdown. Because I feel like you'll be quite shocked by number one. So I thought I'd just give... It was Glass Animals last year, eh? Yeah. And that ended up being a massive crossover hit.
Starting point is 00:33:50 Huge, huge, massive. It's a good indicator of what's going to be cool soon. Exactly. I thought I'd just give a quick mention because we will just do the top five. But this little number from Little Nas X came in at number eight. We had two in the top ten. Wow. Call Me By My Name was number ten.
Starting point is 00:34:12 Yes. In the Triple J top 100. That's pretty mainstream for Triple J. Yeah. Right? I think, you know, over the years, Triple J, it's gotten more mainstream and I think it's mixed with both now, which is cool.
Starting point is 00:34:25 Sure, sure. So let's get into the top five. You'll recognise this song from Billie Eilish. I love this song. Happier Than Ever. Yeah. Came in at number five. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:42 The people love that. Good for Billie, that's nice. Also very mainstream. Number four was a bit of Olivia Rodrigo. Are you kidding? This is like the ZM top five. Yeah, right? Okay, yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:59 What a year she had, though. Yeah. Hard to deny that she didn't have something in there. She's amazing. She's amazing. She's incredible. Number three, this is more Triple J vibes, Spacey Jane. This is the Triple J I know. Which is a mix of both now, which I think is cool.
Starting point is 00:35:22 Now, this is where it gets controversial because there was one song that was tipped to take out the number one spot. Yes. And it didn't. It came in at number two and it was this song from the Kid LAROI. The Kid LAROI.
Starting point is 00:35:43 Who is Australian, right? Who is Australian and indigenous Australian, which makes it even cooler that they're so high up in the top 100. Right, and he didn't do it. He didn't take it out. No, but he was tipped to take it out, which brings me to the song and the group that took out the number one spot
Starting point is 00:36:05 in Triple J's top 100. This is big. I feel like I'm in the countdown right now. There's some people that are happy about it. There's some people that are confused. There's some people that are ropeable about it. But at the end of the day, the winners were the Wiggles. Come on, look, see, there he is now coming down the stairs. Now, let me explain because obviously you'll be like, were the Wiggles.
Starting point is 00:36:29 Now let me explain because obviously you'll be like, are you joking? I'm not joking. Yeah. And you'll be like, that doesn't sound like the Wiggles. Listen to this part. It was their Like A Version, which is where groups or artists come in and they do someone else's song.
Starting point is 00:36:47 They do covers at Triple J. They do covers and it was the first time ever that a Triple J Like A Version song won the Triple J Top 100. Also, the first time ever in history that a kids group won the Top 100. How do you feel about it? I love it. Yeah? I say go for it.
Starting point is 00:37:07 Because remember there was that year where there was all that controversy where they're like, let's make Taylor Swift the number one song in the Triple J Hottest 100. And all the hipsters were like, how dare you hijack our countdown with your pop bull crap.
Starting point is 00:37:17 And then now it's the Kid Leroy, Billie Eilish, Olivia Rodrigo, and the Wiggles you know what that is that's a successful infiltration everybody well done
Starting point is 00:37:29 I think it's cool mission accomplished and I mean check it out The Wiggles with Tame Impala's Elephant on Like A Version
Starting point is 00:37:36 great track that actually really goes keeping up to date with the news just became a little easier as at Herald's new podcast the front page
Starting point is 00:37:44 is your short sharp daily news podcast. Join me, Damien Venuto, every weekday morning as I chat with journalists and newsmakers going behind the headlines to break down what you need to know on the biggest news stories of the day. Listen to the front page at nzherald.co.nz slash podcasts and follow us on iHeartRadio or wherever you get your podcasts. This is a weird story.
Starting point is 00:38:13 We're right now. But I don't want to judge. Maybe you'd be into it. Pet cloning is a thing that you can do now. Barbara Streisand cloned her dogs. Yeah, cloned some of her dogs in 2018. She was like one of the first celebrity kind of people to come out and say that she'd done it.
Starting point is 00:38:31 Yeah, and you get some DNA from your beloved pet and I think you store it for the day that they do pass away. They freeze them, I think. Yeah, and then you can replace that animal with an exact replica, like an actual clone of the dog or the cat and bring your animal back to life. There's so many ethical questions around it. But where it gets really interesting is now that there are such thing as famous pets because
Starting point is 00:38:56 of Instagram. Yeah. People are, whose animals have- Like Grumpy Cat. Like Grumpy Cat would be a great example. People whose animal has a big following. Doug the pug. Yeah. They're going, well well this animal is actually an income as well it's a business so i'm not so off i'm gonna clone the animal and bring them back i don't know about
Starting point is 00:39:14 that i there's i also i also you know what i the first thing i think about yeah and because i've read about this um working radio you read these stories from time to time. And I remember reading that just because they clone your pet, right? Yeah. It'll look the same, but it won't be the same pet. It has a different personality. Yeah. Right. It won't be the same animal.
Starting point is 00:39:39 Physically, it'll be pretty close. Yeah. But mentally, no. Which is weird because just get the same dog, you know? Like if you want an animal that looks the same as your other dog, go and get another dog. Like if you stood two German shepherds beside each other, I'd struggle to tell them apart.
Starting point is 00:39:56 Just go and grab another one. There's someone who owns a, it's a wolf type dog. It's got something in it. It's called Wanda with Willow. The dog has 139,000 Instagram followers. Probably does some paid posts kind of thing. I think it's half dog, half wolf. Is that what it is?
Starting point is 00:40:12 Yeah. Well, the dog passed away. They've cloned it and they've got a new one and they're just continuing to use the same Instagram account with a new dog. What, they haven't told people? No, no, no. I've said that because the original dog's name was Willow.
Starting point is 00:40:25 The new dog's name is Phoenix, but it's Willow's clone. So it's still on Wonder with Willow. Oh, that's weird, man. I don't know about it. It's weird, eh? It makes me feel uncomfortable. I watched this really interesting movie over the holidays. I think it was called The Swan Song.
Starting point is 00:40:41 Yeah. And essentially the concept of the movie, and this is quite dark, but it's a very interesting film is where a guy has a wife and a kid and he finds out that he's terminally ill, right? Yeah. Anyway, he ends up, there's this company where it's all really secret, right? And there's this company who says to him, we can fully clone you, right? So you look exactly the same and you have every single memory up until this point.
Starting point is 00:41:12 And we pretty much clone you to be the exact person, right? And then what happens is they send the clone into the family life so that the family will never know that it's a clone. Okay. And the clone can continue living on and the family will never know that it's a clone. Okay. And the clone can continue living on and the family doesn't have to go through that trauma. Yeah. And then he dies at this facility and whatever, but his family, he doesn't have to put his family.
Starting point is 00:41:35 But they never know, right. It's a real, real weird concept. But, I mean, you never know. I don't know. Are you a clone? I could be a clone yeah like
Starting point is 00:41:49 yeah your nipples are very tiny it's a bit of a giveaway that's true actually if I was cloning myself I'd go for some enhancements you can pick those things yeah
Starting point is 00:41:57 I like exact replica of me but I want full size nipples and maybe a six pack yeah perfect thank you here's a hundred thousand dollars or do I have a story for you guys this afternoon sure I want full-size nipples and maybe a six-pack. Yeah, perfect. Thank you. Here's $100,000. Or do I have a story for you guys this afternoon?
Starting point is 00:42:09 Sure. These stories don't come up all that often. And the last time one of these stories came up for me was when my one-year-old nephew found a big black dilly in the paddock. That's right. Did he keep that? No, no, they didn't let him keep it. The batteries, it didn't have any batteries. Sometimes it's hard to get kids to give up a toy they're really fond of.
Starting point is 00:42:31 And you might not have heard that story, so that out of context sounds very weird. Go to our Facebook page, you can see the video. What do they search on our Facebook page? Big Black Dilly. It'll come up. There's another story that's come out of my family camp, which I need to share with you guys.
Starting point is 00:42:48 Sure. Because this is brilliant. So my brother has a beautiful, lovely girlfriend who I adore. She's one of my favourite people in the whole world. Her name's Kim, right? And she texts me over the holiday break. And this was maybe a week after Christmas, I think. And she texts me and she's like, oh, my God, I need to tell you something.
Starting point is 00:43:10 She's like, I can't tell many people this story, but I need to tell you. I feel like you'll understand. And I was like, okay, hit me with it. What's going on? She's like, okay, so your brother and I, we went back to your family's place, your parents' place for Christmas. And she's like, you know how we just eat everything when we're there? Because Kim and I are very similar. We love
Starting point is 00:43:30 to just, you know, we just eat everything. She's like, I was into everything. I was into the pastas. I was into the sweets. I had like three salamis. I was into everything. Three salamis? She loves salami just like me. Right, okay. Anyway, so she was into all the food she said the next day and this story might not be for everyone but this is you know these things happen in life she said the next day i went to the bathroom and it was a number two and she noticed that there was
Starting point is 00:43:57 some weird things about her stool yeah well she had to drop three salamis. You know? So there were some weird things. She said when she looked at it, it looked like a tapeworm. Oh. And she freaked out, right? Yeah. Freaked out. There was all these weird silk things that were in her perm, and she freaked out.
Starting point is 00:44:17 She goes, oh, my God, I've got a tapeworm. Right. Anyway, she goes, I need to go to the doctor right now. I love how you're the person she's turned to as well. Well, she knew I'd understand. I'd appreciate the story. Anyway, she said, I need to go to the doctor straight away. And she grew up in Stanthorpe just like us, right?
Starting point is 00:44:33 And so she's tried to get into a doctor at the last minute. And being from a small country town, she said the only doctor, and this is no BS, that was available was her ex's dad. And she said, absolutely not. That's so uncomfortable. That's not happening. Well, well, well, he has sworn a Hippocratic oath that he won't tell anyone.
Starting point is 00:44:54 I know, but. He's not going to go home to his son and go, you will not believe who came in with problems with their poo. And show me a picture of their poo. You wouldn't believe it. No, he's professional. But anyway. She decided she didn't want to do that. No, you show me a picture of their poo. You wouldn't believe it. No, he's a professional. But anyway, yeah, yeah, yeah. She decided she didn't want to do that.
Starting point is 00:45:07 No, you've shared a dinner table with him. Yeah, she didn't want to do that. She's cut her trip short. She's went back to where her and my brother live and she's booked in with a random doctor. Okay. Because she decided she doesn't want to see this doctor again after this because she took a picture of the poo to show to the doctor.
Starting point is 00:45:22 She goes, I'm smart. I took a picture of the poo so the doctor could have a look at it and check. Some people aren't smart. Some people take the whole poo, you know. Yeah, well, she didn't do that. Thank God. Anyway, so the doctor's had a look at this picture and she's like, okay. She goes, look, it could be a tapeworm.
Starting point is 00:45:38 It kind of does look like it. I'm going to put you on the medication now and then we're going to test your stool and we'll see exactly what it is. Yeah. You know, great. She said, awesome. Sounds good to me. Anyway, she gets this call from the doctor a couple of days later.
Starting point is 00:45:56 Yeah. She says, Kim, look, we've tested your poo. Look, great news. Not a tapeworm. Good news. great news, not a tapeworm. Good news. Great news, not a tapeworm. She said, but look, my advice in the future, you probably should be taking the casing off the salamis
Starting point is 00:46:15 when you're eating it. Was it string? It was the casing, the synthetic casing, and anyone who eats whole salamis knows this, that isn't edible and shit eating so much of it. I was like, yeah, probably should cut back on the salamis. Thank God, thank God for random doctors, right? I know. And for iPhones to take a photo of your poos.
Starting point is 00:46:49 Always take a photo, people. And cut back on the salami. Three is too many, everybody. So good. Time for Guess the Voice. Back for another year. You can play along in the car. This is where producer Anastasia plays us a celebrity voice

Starting point is 00:49:24 That is Ice Cube. You've taken out the first one of the year. Well done, Clint. I knew you weren't going to ever get that $20 back. Yeah. Jono, we did it, mate. Good stuff. Ming, I apologise.
Starting point is 00:49:40 Obviously a bit rusty. It's all right. Sorry, Ming. Oh, no, I'll remember next time. Good. Bree and Clint. Right, gear up because this is going to make some people angry and if you've ever been dumped
Starting point is 00:49:53 in a really harsh way, this might make you feel a bit better. Okay. Story about a woman who has posted her story on TikTok about one of the most brutal dumpings ever. Her name's Colleen. She decided to share her story on TikTok about one of the most brutal dumpings ever. Her name's Colleen. She decided to share her story about a boyfriend she had
Starting point is 00:50:11 and she says that they got together quite young and he was quite upfront when they first got together that he'd been struggling with a chronic kidney disease since he was about 17. So she knew that upfront and there was all these horrible things that he'd been through. Anyway, she decided, I think it came down to it that he needed a kidney transplant. He was on dialysis. He needed one and it was like dire. She decided, you know, I love this man. I don't know how long they'd been together for at that point.
Starting point is 00:50:48 Okay. But she decided, I'm going to go get tested to see if I'm a match because you need to be a match with someone to be able to give, you know, a kidney or an organ or something. Anyway, turns out she was a match and she followed through with one of the most selfless things you could do for a partner and she donated one of her kidneys for him. And we don't know how long they'd been together at this stage.
Starting point is 00:51:13 I don't know. It doesn't say. Right. But. Because you want to have been on a few dates. Like longer than two weeks. Yeah, longer than two weeks. Longer than a two-week relationship.
Starting point is 00:51:22 I mean, you don't want to see anybody die. No. But. It's a two-week relationship. I mean, you don't want to see anybody die. No. But. It's a big decision. Yeah. You know, but I think they'd been together for a little while. Okay, yeah. And yeah, she decided to do that and she did and it all went really well.
Starting point is 00:51:35 Incredible. His new kidney worked really well. She was healthy afterwards. Everyone wins. Great news. It was until he decided he was going on a boys' trip to Vegas with the lads. I think it was, what are they called again? Stag do.
Starting point is 00:51:54 A stag do. I think it was a stag do. You'd feel a bit, as the girlfriend, you'd feel a little bit of ownership in that situation because you'd go, don't put my kidney through too much. On a stag do, kidneys are very important. She's like, hey, I gave you that kidney. I want you to treat it well, you know?
Starting point is 00:52:12 Yeah, exactly right. And she said, look, she wasn't too worried because he was very Christian and he was going with boys from the church. Oh, okay. It was a group of guys from the church. Yeah. Anyway.
Starting point is 00:52:25 Nothing but communion wine and wafers. Who knows? Who knows? Anyway, turns out he gets back. An argument breaks out and he says, look, I'm so sorry. I can't believe I've done this, but I've cheated on you. And I don't know how long it was in between getting the healthy kidney to going to Vegas. I don't know how long it was in between getting the healthy kidney to going to Vegas.
Starting point is 00:52:46 I don't know what time period that was. Do we know that he cheated after receiving the kidney? Yes, it was after. So this all happened after. Anyway, they've had this big blow-up, big fight, and she's eventually forgiven him, and they've decided to give it another go. That's big of her.
Starting point is 00:53:05 She's done more than enough already. But okay, she obviously really loves this guy. So she's given him another chance. Three months later, that guy now brutally dumps her over the phone and says, that's it. I'm out. With your kidney. With your kidney. With your kidney.
Starting point is 00:53:25 Me and your kidney. You're not getting the kidney back. So not only did he cheat on her and then make her take him back, he then dumped her three months later after she gave him a kidney. That is such a shit thing to do. That is like, no relationship necessarily lasts forever. And just because you have someone's kidney in your body doesn't mean that you're going to be a perfect match forever.
Starting point is 00:53:51 And you don't have to be. And I'm not saying that at all. But she deserves more than a cheating on in Vegas and then a phone call dumping. Exactly. That's what I'm thinking. Like, come on. She's like, all right, well, I want a finger.
Starting point is 00:54:03 If you're going to dump me like that. You give me, I can think of another appendage I'd want. Let's even up this story. Well, he doesn't have two of those, though. That's the issue. There's something he has two of. I'll take one. I wonder, and I don't know that we'll get anything as bad as that.
Starting point is 00:54:20 Someone who got dumped after giving their boyfriend a kidney, like a body part. Yeah, but there's got to be stuff where people have been like dumped on Christmas Day. Yeah, yeah, yeah,
Starting point is 00:54:29 yeah. That's brutal. Dumped on wedding day. Dumped on your birthday. Brutal dumping stories. Are you in a place in your life now where you're able

Starting point is 00:55:27 She selflessly gave up one of her kidneys to save her partner's life. Yeah. And then he cheated on her and then he also dumped it. The double whammy. The double whammy. Or the triple. With her kidney. Yeah.

This person wants to remain anonymous, and we can do that. We can always do that. Hello, Anonymous.
Starting point is 00:55:56 Hi, Anonymous. Hi, how are you? Good, thank you. Anonymous, this is your turn to vent. Tell us what happened. Was it you that got brutally dumped? Yes, I wouldn't say it was as brutal as what I've just heard, but it was on my birthday.
Starting point is 00:56:12 Oh, that's pretty rough. Yeah, we'd only been together six months, but still. And they obviously knew it was your birthday. Oh, yeah, yeah. Was it a significant birthday? Like, did he do it during his speech at your 21st? Oh, God, no, no. Anonymous, my main question I want to know,
Starting point is 00:56:31 and this is what I think about, did you get the present from him? Yeah, I asked for it. After you'd been dumped, you asked for the gift? Yes, Anonymous, I love that. Did you get me a present? And was there one? Did he get you a present? Yes, he had got me this ring, you asked for the gift. Yes, anonymous. I love that. Did you get me a present? I love that. And was there one?
Starting point is 00:56:45 Did he get you a present? Yes, he had got me this ring, this, like, love heart ring thing. What? See, that's the most random bit. He obviously wasn't planning to dump you when he bought the ring. It was, yeah, I don't know how long ago he had bought the ring or what. What the hell happened? How strange.
Starting point is 00:57:00 Because, you know, you'd think if someone was planning to dump someone on their birthday, they'd be like, sweet, I can get away with that. Save some money. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Get a present. Did you keep the ring? Yeah, well, I've got it somewhere, but I wouldn't know where. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 00:57:15 Wow. Rough. That's strange. Okay, well, good, he's gone, you know. Yeah, good riddance. Jog on. See you later. Here's Crystal.
Starting point is 00:57:23 Hi, Crystal. Hi, Crystal. Hi, guys. Tell us, Crystal, what's the brutal dumping? Well, it wasn't me, but it was my mother-in-law. Right. So me and my husband were getting married, and my mother-in-law was with this guy.
Starting point is 00:57:36 She'd been with him about six, seven months, and we were like, hey, let's all dress up nice, you know, really give this, you know, have a really good wedding. And he turns up in a Hawaiian shirt and jangles and then halfway through the ceremony, dumps her and leaves. And we find out after the ceremony.
Starting point is 00:57:51 He dumped her? He dumped her. I thought you were going to say mother-in-law dumped him for not showing the respect at the wedding. Wow. During, wait, during the ceremony? Yes, during the ceremony. He dumped her during the ceremony.
Starting point is 00:58:05 And just to confirm, it was her son's wedding? Yes, my husband's. Wait, Crystal, it's so weird to me to even think, because obviously, you know, when you break up with someone, it's quite an intense conversation. Can you imagine those two having this conversation as her son is getting married? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:22 And obviously, you can't talk really loud. How would that conversation go? It's like, hey, by the way, I'm, uh, I'm tempting you. You're what? I mean, you're what? Yeah, well, she did get roaring drunk at the reception.
Starting point is 00:58:39 As you would. As you would. As you would, yeah. Poor thing, that's horrible. Jeez, not her fault, not her fault, but what a way to steal the limelight on your big day as well, Crystal. Pretty much. Pretty much, yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:50 Thank you, Kevin. Yeah, good one, Kevin. Wherever you are, you know who you are, Kevin. And your stupid Hawaiian shirt and your stupid jandals. A few texts coming through on this. Someone said, I got ghosted from a four year relationship whilst overseas in the UK. He just
Starting point is 00:59:10 flew home and I never heard from him again. His mum ended up messaging me to tell me that he was alive and well at home. That's psychotic. That's crazy. You've been in a four year relationship and they just disappear and they go home to mum. And they don't tell you that they're okay.
Starting point is 00:59:27 There must be more to it. That must be some kind of like full mental breakdown. What is going on there? Crazy. Finally, another anonymous caller. Hello, anonymous. Hi, anonymous. Hi.
Starting point is 00:59:37 Was it you that got brutally dumped? It was me, yeah. Oh, anonymous, tell us the story. So it was my fiancé. I'm three months away from our wedding. He jumped me on Christmas Eve. Whoa. That's got
Starting point is 00:59:54 there's so much to unpack there. Wait, I felt like I was in a boxing match with Muhammad Ali and I just got punched on all sides of the face. So you're engaged to be married to this man in three months' time and he picked Christmas Eve to break up with you. What was the reason he gave?
Starting point is 01:00:12 It just wasn't in it anymore. Oh, that's low anonymous. I mean, I think you're better off, to be honest. Oh, God, yeah. Yeah. Same question as our first caller. Did he get you a Christmas present? Oh, if he did, I never got it. Yeah, God, yeah. Same question as our first caller. Did he get you a Christmas present? If he did, I never got it.
Starting point is 01:00:29 I actually can't believe that someone out there goes, right, so I'm engaged. You know, it's three months out from the wedding. I'm going to do it on Christmas Eve. I'm going to pick that. The date is important.
Starting point is 01:00:43 I'll do it on Christmas Eve. I mean, no time is a good time, yeah, the date is important. I'll do it on Christmas Eve. It's a good idea. I mean, no time is a good time but sometimes are really bad times. Do you look back on it anonymous and go, thank God I dodged that bullet?
Starting point is 01:00:52 Oh yeah, yeah, definitely. Right, rip the bandaid off. Yeah, good for you. Alright,
Starting point is 01:00:57 well there you go. Interestingly, all these stories, they've got one common, they've got one common, common factor. What? They were all dudes doing the dumping.

Starting point is 01:05:17 Ross. Bree and Clint. I tore it up on the festival scene. Did you? Well, I went to two. I was going to say. Well, thank God you got two in. We were talking about people today who were saving themselves
Starting point is 01:05:33 for some festivals that are yet to come. You don't do that in COVID times. Your summer's ruined. You have to make the decision on the spot. You go to the festival. One of the festivals I went to was Plane Sailing, which took place here in Auckland down, what's this park down here? Victoria Park.
Starting point is 01:05:52 Down in Victoria Park. What a doof head. That was a full drum and bass festival. Look, me and my friend Megan, my friend Cam, we made the decision last minute, night before, and we literally thought, hey, you know, we don't know what's going to happen. We may as well go.
Starting point is 01:06:07 Did you get free tickets from ZM? No. Did you not? We bought our tickets last minute. Okay, that's a good commitment. So they were even more expensive. Yeah. But I will say, worth it.
Starting point is 01:06:15 We had a great time. It looked awesome. Spent time with friends. It was awesome. Yeah. Something happened there, which I really need to talk about, I need to tell you about, was I met some really lovely people, as you do at festivals, but I want to talk about this one particular girl that I met.
Starting point is 01:06:32 Her name was Maddie. Okay. And the reason I want to talk about her is, look, something happened there at the festival. I'd had a few lemonades and this girl, Maddie, she'd had a few lemonades and she came over to me and she goes did you hook up with her
Starting point is 01:06:46 if you want to believe if you want to well that sounds like that's where the story was going no she came over to me it sounded like one thing led to another
Starting point is 01:06:54 I never said one thing led to another no but it's weird sorry okay sorry I got ahead of the story I'm back I don't hook up with every person I meet
Starting point is 01:07:01 at a festival just most I'm not Anastasia anyway sorry stage I'll go with every person I meet at a festival. Just most. I'm not Anastasia. Anyway. Sorry, Stage. I know it's every second person. She's quite a go-after today.
Starting point is 01:07:14 Anyway, anyway, anyway. Anyway, she said to me, she's like, I know you. You're that Brie girl from the radio. I've seen you on TV. Love your stuff. Love your work. And I said, that's really lovely. Great.
Starting point is 01:07:28 I was very flattered. And she goes, look, I've got to be honest with you though. I don't listen to yours and Clint's show. And I looked at her and I said, well, that is very honest. What's the reason? You said, I can't believe I just kissed you. I know. I've wasted a kiss
Starting point is 01:07:44 on you. Why doesn't she listen to our show? She was like, yeah, she goes, I don't believe I just kissed you. I know. I've wasted a kiss on you. Why doesn't she listen to our show? Well, she was like, yeah, she goes, I don't listen to your show on ZM. And I was like, oh, that's okay. You know, it's not for everyone. Yeah. And trying to make myself feel better. And she goes, no, no, no. It's because I don't have a band extender in my car.
Starting point is 01:08:01 Oh. It's one of the Japanese imports. Yeah. My car doesn't go past. She only goes to 89.9. Exactly. So's one of the Japanese imports. Yeah. My car doesn't go past. She only goes to 89.9. Exactly. So I can't get ZM. She's like, but I'd love to get ZM.
Starting point is 01:08:12 And this is where the story gets interesting because I said to her, because I'd had quite a few drinks, and I said, look, here's the deal. I promise you, Matty. Person I've just met. Person I've just met, I will pay for your car to get a band extender. Whoa, big baller shot caller. The deal is you need to listen to our show every day this year. Anyway, you know, it's one of those things you forget about it.
Starting point is 01:08:43 But no, we made a video where we shook on it we shook on this deal and it was about a week later that i received an instagram inbox from this girl maddie where she was like do you remember this i've got video evidence that you promised me this you owe me a band expander yeah anyway i messaged her back and i said i'm a woman of my word i'm happy to do it. Let's organise it. And then, this is completely honest, and then I've lost her message in my Instagram
Starting point is 01:09:12 inbox. Right. I've lost it and now I feel horrible and I thought you and I, Clint, could go on a hunt this week where we try and find Maddie who obviously isn't listening to us because her car can't get our station, right? No, that's an added level of difficulty, yeah.
Starting point is 01:09:27 But I feel like with the power of radio, we might be able to track her down. Okay, what's Maddie's last name? No idea. Okay. What city does Maddie live in? I'm pretty sure she comes from Auckland. Okay.
Starting point is 01:09:38 What does Maddie look like? She is quite short. I want to say 5'5". Yeah. Dark hair. Right. Dark, long hair. Right.
Starting point is 01:09:47 She attended Plane Sailing Festival. Yes. And her car can't get ZM. Exactly. That's all we know about her. That's all we know. Right, okay. Well, if you are Maddie, get in touch because Brio's your,
Starting point is 01:09:58 well, it's not cheap, about $150, by the way. I want to come through on my promise. You want to do it? Yeah. But here's the deal. She has to contact us by the end of this week. Yeah, good. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:10:07 You know, we've got to keep it interesting. We've got to keep it, you know, fun. Okay. Well, Maddie, if you're listening, you can call us right now. Otherwise, you can connect with us through, don't do Bree's DMs. That didn't work well last time. Yeah, that didn't work well. The Bree and Clint Instagram page.
Starting point is 01:10:24 Yes. Yeah. DM us. No, no one checks that page. I don't know well last time. Yeah, that didn't work well. The Brian Clint Instagram page. Yes. Yeah. DM us. No, no one checks that page. Smoke, signal. Just get in touch. Find a way, okay? You'll find a way.
Starting point is 01:10:34 You'll find a way. There's heaps of social media these days. We'll shout you a band experience. And if you know someone that fits that description. Yeah. If you think you know that person. Yeah, yeah. Message her.
Starting point is 01:10:44 Yeah. To tell her to get in touch with us. And if you ever see Brie at a festival, take full advantage. She's dishing out cash. Oh, mate. Ask me for something. I'll probably give it to you. Speaking of big energy,
Starting point is 01:10:58 Lotto, the Powerball jackpot hasn't been won this year yet. It's up at like $17, $18 million. That's crazy because, I mean, you just hear about, you know, friends and family, they're always winning lotto. Yeah. Shut up, okay. I know that's aimed at me. I am a lotto tragic, but I will win one day.
Starting point is 01:11:17 And that's why here I want to offer some hope to my fellow, what do we call ourselves? Dreamers. I've got the exact odds of you winning Lotto in New Zealand. Okay. Okay. Just so you know, it is possible. The first big prize of the year has just been won on Saturday.
Starting point is 01:11:36 Went to a man in Wellington. He won a million dollars. That a do, eh? Million bucks. That's pretty good. Yeah. Million bucks. Sure, there have been about nine draws this year so far and only
Starting point is 01:11:47 one winner. But let's not focus on that bit. Let's focus on the fact that it can be won and it has by a guy in Wellington who has chosen to remain anonymous. It's so easy. He did it. It was real simple. So what are the chances? You've been slavishly buying a ticket for the last 10 years.
Starting point is 01:12:03 Most you've won is $47. Your odds of winning, let's start with First Division Lotto. Okay, that's the million dollars. Right. Your chances of winning First Division Lotto are one in 3.8 million. Okay. Which is, you know, better than I expected. Wouldn't you agree?
Starting point is 01:12:25 Wouldn't you agree that's better than you? I mean, that's probably about right. Yeah. It's less than there are people in New Zealand. Put it that way. Yeah. I mean, the kids aren't buying the lotto tickets, are they? No, true.
Starting point is 01:12:37 Right, the kids aren't. The babies aren't buying the lotto. Okay, well, it's just over. It's just, anyway. Powerball, where it gets really interesting. So that's the one that goes for 15 million, 20 million. These are the big ones.
Starting point is 01:12:48 30 million, the ones that gets right up there. Yeah. Because to win that, you've got to get all six numbers for Lotto. And the two Powerballs. And then, no, just one Powerball. Just one Powerball. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:12:58 To get that, the odds of you winning Lotto Powerball, one in 38.3 million.
