I do follow it annually. It is an annual event. People take it quite seriously. They do. It's one of those classic American things, though,
Starting point is 00:09:28 where it's the world's ugliest dog, but it's held in one state in America. It's like the World Series of Baseball. Yeah, you are the world champion. It's like this is just an American competition. You just played each other. You haven't played anyone else from around the world. There's a Tasman Marco winning the MPC and going,

And I know you guys can't see this, but we'll describe it to you. We'll describe it in all its ugly glory. Do you remember last year's winner? Jeez, that was an ugly dog.
Starting point is 00:10:01 That was an ugly dog. It was like a chihuahua crossed something And it was bald I'm thinking it must have died Because this dog is not uglier than that dog I've seen this year's ugliest dog I don't think it just needs a haircut The world's ugliest dog is An eight year old
Starting point is 00:10:17 Pekingese called Wild Thang I think it's quite cute I think it's quite cute too It just needs a haircut It just needs a bit of a trim yeah, a bit of a trim. It's got, as we would have said in Rotorua, a waka bush. It is just, it just needs to go to animate and go into that bit where the dogs get their haircut, doesn't it?
Starting point is 00:10:35 Yeah, I feel like. At least it's real ugly under that and the hair is to hide how ugly it is. I feel like I want to see this dog up close. I don't want to see the dogs that it beat. Shave that dog. Yeah. Like who? It beat a dog called Daisy May.
Starting point is 00:10:49 She was a mongrel that had lost her teeth. She'd lost her hair and she'd lost her vision. See, that sounds pretty ugly. She was a blind, and I know there's kids in the car, but this is a technical term. She was a blind, toothless, hairless bitch. Wasn't she? She obviously was old. She's an old bitch toothless, hairless bitch. Wasn't she? She obviously was old.
Starting point is 00:11:07 She's an old bitch. Yeah. Yeah, she was. Dogs lose their sight and their teeth. No, that's Wild Thing, the ugliest dog. Wild Thing kind of looks like, you know what Wild Thing looks like? Wild Thing, thank you very much. Sorry, Wild Thing. Yeah. We don't come in here and pronounce your name wrong, do we?

It looks like E.T. got... Just to describe it to the people listening. Yeah, totally. Wild thing is a medical condition called canine distemper, which prevents the growth of its teeth.
Starting point is 00:11:39 Oh, it's got no teeth as well. Oh, cute. It's also got a muscular disorder in one of its legs. Yeah, but those things don't make it ugly. They just make it a bit, you know, munted. Her owner won $5,000 for humiliating her poor dog like that.
Starting point is 00:11:53 Five grand do you win? Yeah. Five grand? Everybody else goes home to their dog or their cat at the end of the day or their ferret, whatever they're running and they say to it, who's the most beautiful girl or boy in the world? Who's the most beautiful?

Starting point is 00:12:15 you're ugly. Man, you're ugly. And I'm going to make some money out of this. I feel like dogs are like kids. Yeah. Even if they're ugly,
Starting point is 00:12:22 you find them beautiful. Even if they're ugly, don't put them in a competition. And don't say it to them. God, imagine if they held the world's ugliest kid competition. See, that I would go and see. You would, eh? Yeah. But you're not, yeah. But it's not acceptable.
Starting point is 00:12:38 Nah, it's not. But there are some out there. What about, oh, should we hold the world's ugliest baby competition? Yeah, that's okay. Because there is. Because babies don't have self-esteem. No, but this is the thing, right? This is the thing. I truly believe, you know, people are like, oh, there doesn't exist an ugly baby.
Starting point is 00:12:54 Bull crap. Have you seen Paris Hilton's baby? There's some ugly babies kicking around. And then they grow into their head or they, you know, they grow into their features. Wild Thang's owner, the Wild Thang, the eight-year-old, world's ugliest dog, Pekingese, do you know what her owner does for fun? What?
Starting point is 00:13:11 She raises money to rescue Pekingese dogs from the war in Ukraine. Oh, she's a good person. That's a real thing. She's a good human. So far, she's bought seven dogs to the US from the war in Ukraine. How did she get them over?

I've got some audio where he listened to this guy because he went to Harvard for this. He went to Harvard University. He studied linguistics there and he knows what he's talking
Starting point is 00:14:58 about. Take a listen. I'm calling it now. We have one month until the straight white girls start saying I'm gagged instead of slay. There is a lot of evidence that the word is currently trending in the gay community the same way that slay was trending in early 2022 before it became viral. And if we know anything about how language spreads in social media, it's that straight white girls adopt what gay and black people are saying and then everyone else adopts what straight white girls are saying. That's exactly what happened with the word slay, serve, tea, and mother. They all came from the ballroom scene in the late 1980s,
Starting point is 00:15:23 became viral on TikTok, And then all of a sudden Everybody started saying it But Slay is starting to fall out of fashion now Precisely because everyone's saying it Oh no No more Slay I was just getting into my Slay era We're coming into Christmas soon

I'm gagged. I'm gagged. Seeing as you're so up with the trends, can you use it in a sentence for us, please?

Starting point is 00:16:12 Ah, see, I can't tell what the connotations were, whether they're good or bad. Is it good or bad to be gagged? It can be good, can be bad. You know, it can be a good thing, like where you're like, oh, my God, did you see such and such's outfit for the Met Gala? Gagged. Yeah. Like, be a good thing. Like when you're like, oh my God, did you see such and such's outfit for the Met Gala? Gagged. Yeah. Again, you're not

Starting point is 00:17:24 I mean. Clint's attempt at that, I'm gagged. I'm gagged. Not in a good way. I'm not allowed to comment on this, I'm gagged. Legally. Brie and Clint. It's time for the latest.
Starting point is 00:17:36 From iHeartRadio, this is the latest. Live from LA with Dean McCarthy. Biggest story in Hollywood over the last few days is Justin Timberlake getting busted drink driving in the Hamptons. Dean, he's gone back on stage and he's talked about it. He sure has. He's gone on stage in Chicago and that's what he said. It's been a tough week, but you're here, I'm here.
Starting point is 00:17:57 Nothing can change this moment right now. He actually said, I know sometimes I'm hard to love, but you keep on loving me and I love you right back. Have a listen to this. Here's Justin Timberlake. We've been together through ups and downs and lefts and rights. And it's been a tough week. But you're here, and I'm here.
Starting point is 00:18:20 And nothing can change this moment right here. I know sometimes I'm hard to love, but you keep on loving me, and I love you right back. Thank you so much. Nah, it doesn't pass the vibe check for me. Does it seem super genuine or like, I don't know? I'll tell you how I feel about it. There's no remorse. No, that's what it is, Zayn.
Starting point is 00:18:42 Is that how it's being received over there in Hollywood as well? Exactly. That's what, well, you know what? Honestly, no one in Hollywood has said too much about that today. Like, it's sort of Sunday over here, so maybe tomorrow it might be in more on the talk of the water cooler. But, yeah, I feel like I almost, I don't know. For me personally, it didn't sound sincere. He didn't sound remorseful at all.
Starting point is 00:19:01 There's no apology. There's no, like, you know, people, a lot of people die from drink driving. That's what it is. A lot of people have been killed. It's like a serious thing, right? Yeah, that's what it is. To me, it sounds like I'm gutted that I got caught. Not, I'm sorry that I did something stupid which could have killed someone's sister,
Starting point is 00:19:19 mother, brother, father. All I was thinking when he was like, you're here, I'm here. All I was thinking was someone was like you're here, I'm here. All I was thinking was someone could have not been here because you killed them drink driving. You know what I mean? It's a shit take. It is. Yeah. It's a good reminder for everybody that you're not risking just your life when you drink
Starting point is 00:19:38 drive. You're risking the lives of everybody else on the road and even Justin Timberlake can get caught so you'll get caught too. That's the latest. That got serious didn't it? You were waving your finger at me. I was copping it the most. Well I got it from Dean and then you got it from me.
Starting point is 00:19:53 Anyway don't drink and drive. Don't be a bloody idiot. Brie and Clint. Brie how many kids has your dad got? Like I said before three that we know of. Three that you know of. That we know of. Me, my sister and my brother. Three so far.

Do you reckon he's just trying to create CEOs of all the different you reckon he's just trying to create CEOs of all the different companies that he's going to start? Yeah, yeah, yeah. He's so rich, he's looking for tax loopholes. He goes, right, carry the three, seven.

According to the Herald, he has, and this is their words, by the way, at least 12 children. Six of those 12 children were born in the last five years.
Starting point is 00:21:31 So he's been going hard. Since 47, he's been going hard in the paint. In more ways than one. He's got, you're right, in two ways.

Starting point is 00:22:12 Yeah. Yeah. God. Why would you keep going? Why? Why do you want so many kids? Because I've seen documentaries about him too. He's so busy that there's no way you could say he's a hands-on
Starting point is 00:22:26 dad. He might be, but he talks about sleeping at the Tesla factory because he's got so much going on. Wasn't there a story allegedly, or there's that story that went around where he had all these hidden children? Like secret children. I have heard something about that, yeah. Like secret kids. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:22:41 One of them came forward and they were like, I want to get to know my dad. I guess that's why the newspapers have to say at least 12 children. Yeah, I believe there was quite a few stories where he covered some of his kids up. Even if there's ones we don't know about. 12's heaps. 12's enough. 12's heaps.
Starting point is 00:22:57 That's a whole dozen. For one man in 2024, 12 children is heaps. Like if you put that into context, if you buy a dozen eggs they only get one egg each. Exactly right. There's one breakfast. He owns Tesla and even he couldn't get himself a car big enough to take all of his children. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:16 None of his cars would fit him. They don't make one. He'd need to make a cyber bus. Stuff the cyber truck you need a cyber bus.

Starting point is 00:23:48 We don't know. Some to his own mum. No, that's wrong. No, that's too far. That was too far. That was too far. I didn't fully say it, though, so technically not too far. No.
Starting point is 00:23:58 True. Just far enough. Exactly. 0800 dial ZM or text into 9696. Our question for you this afternoon is a bit of a weird one, but we'd like to know how many kids has your dad got? Bree and Clint. In the news today, Elon Musk has just, I was going to say he had it,
Starting point is 00:24:16 but he didn't have it. He's just received his 12th child, 12 children, one man, 12 children. Apparently you get the 13th for free. Yeah, like a coffee card. Yeah. Like a, 12 children. Apparently you get the 13th for free. Yeah. Like a coffee card. Yeah. Like a wild bean coffee. You have to naturally birth the first 12. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:24:31 The 13th is free. Yeah, it's a freebie. So we're asking, how many kids has your dad got? They're not all to the same woman, his, and I don't know that all of your dads are going to be to the same woman either. They might be. The text seems to be that they're to multiple different women. Like this one.
Starting point is 00:24:48 My dad had five from my mum, four from another mum, and at least two more from other people. And I've just had a DNA test come back this week. It looks like there may be another one that's just popped up. Wow. So how many? So that's five, nine, eleven.
Starting point is 00:25:07 Dad's busy. You actually want dad to have those eleven to twelve children with different women because much easier for a man to have the same man to have twelve children than it is for the same woman to have twelve children, you know? Like it takes much less effort for a man to
Starting point is 00:25:23 make those twelve children than one woman to make a dozen children. Definitely. it takes much less effort for a man to make those 12 children than one woman to make a dozen children. Definitely takes way less effort. Let's talk to Adonia on 0800 Dials at M. Hi, Adonia. Hi, Adonia. Hi. How many kids your dad got, Adonia? It's not my dad, it's my father-in-law, but
Starting point is 00:25:39 so far there's, I think it's nine and counting, and there could be another one that he mentioned. Adya, how many different mummas are we talking in there? Eight. So there's only two kids with the same mum. Whoa!
Starting point is 00:25:56 Nine to eight? I think the last one that was discovered, the ninth kid I think has the same mum. So he's finally settled down on the last one. He must have really liked the last one. Dad two with her. He's like, no, I think it's time for me to put down some roots.
Starting point is 00:26:13 No, there's a younger one after those. Oh, there's a younger one. Put down plenty of roots. Jeez. Okay, thanks, Antonia. Your father-in-law has the record for people that we've spoken to. He's got, what, eight different baby mamas? Yeah, nine babies to eight women.
Starting point is 00:26:25 Can you imagine the communication that would take? Can you imagine Mother's Day for that man? If you wanted all of those kids in your life, you then have to communicate with eight different women. Oh, my God. And most of them probably hate you. Chris is here. Hi, Chris.
Starting point is 00:26:41 Hi, Chris. Hi. Is it your dad that has a lot of kids? Yeah. Yeah. 13, to my knowledge. 13? Your dad has 13 kids that you're aware of.
Starting point is 00:26:53 Did he get the 13th for free? I wish. But, yeah, as far as I'm aware, it's 13. He hasn't really spoken much exactly of the years anymore. Yeah. But 13 is the number that we've been told. Wow. Okay, a couple of questions.
Starting point is 00:27:11 How many women are those 13 children to? I think four. Four? Okay. And... A lot easier to wrangle four different baby mamas, eh? Yeah, definitely. Three to four each.
Starting point is 00:27:27 And do you guys talk to Dad? We all talk to each other and we communicate with each other. We've got together. Yeah. We've basically had a good... Did he have the chat with you about using protection or he just... Funny enough, he's over the West Coast permanently and I'm in Christchurch. Right, okay.
Starting point is 00:27:50 And do you have a good relationship with all of your siblings and steps and half siblings? We all have a good relationship with each other. Yeah. We just don't have a good relationship with the dad. Oh, well, at least you've got each other. So that's one nice thing that's come of it. Yeah. And you guys, you're in the South Island.
Starting point is 00:28:08 You've got enough siblings to start that new South Island NRL team. There's 13 of you. God, and you'll have the family chemistry, you know? Yeah. Dad could have been coach, but he screwed it up. Yep, messed that up. Rachel's here. Hi, Rachel.
Starting point is 00:28:23 Hi, Rachel. Hi. How are you? This is huge. We're good. We've asked, how many kids has your dad got? Your dad is one of a lot of kids, isn't he? He is. My dad's one of 18. Wait, to the same man?
Starting point is 00:28:36 Like your granddad had 18 kids? Yep, and with the same woman, so my grandma and granddad. Wait, your grandma would have been pregnant for like 20 years. Yes. She was a professional pregnant woman by that stage. She had a full career as a pregnant woman.
Starting point is 00:28:56 And there is 409 descendants from that. Oh, my God. And you're one of them. Yes. You're one of 409 descendants from your grandparents. Yes. Rachel, does your dad keep in touch with all of his brothers and sisters? All of them.
Starting point is 00:29:12 Yeah. We've actually got a family wood. And every time a new baby is born, a new tree is planted. And every year, everyone goes to the woodland and has a barbecue. It's a bloody forestry at this point. I was going to say. Yeah, yeah. And you are single-handedly decarbonising the North Island with that forest.
Starting point is 00:29:29 You'll save the planet at this rate. Can I just check, your dad's parents are Catholics? I get that all the time. And no, they weren't. Really? Okay. Trying to keep it alive, the Catholics. They were just really, really, really, really, really, really, really in love.
Starting point is 00:29:50 In love. Really in love. Oh, that's lovely. What a lovely love story. Thanks, Rach. Thanks, Rach. Bye. See ya.
Starting point is 00:29:59 She's got more relatives than I had people at my high school. She's got more relatives than the population of Greymount. We've got some KFC to give away with our game called Guess the Noise. I like to play this when there's strange noises coming from my neighbours. Oh, yeah? What are they doing?
Starting point is 00:30:25 Are they having a fight? Yeah. Or indoor gardening? We don't know. I had neighbours who used to have really, really, really, really loud fights with the doors open and then really, really, really, really loud make-up. Fights.
Starting point is 00:30:41 Fights, yeah. Wrestling. Make-up wrestling, yeah. Both with the doors open. It's like they wanted us to hear. Anyway, we're going to play as a team today to win some KFC chicken dollars. Hunter's going to play.
Starting point is 00:30:52 Hi, Hunter. Hi, Hunter. How's it going? We're good. You're on Team Clint. Hunter. How good? You're on Team Clint.
Starting point is 00:30:58 I, on my team, have Gatherer. G'day, Gatherer. Otherwise known as Matt. How we doing? Yes, Matt. Hunter and Gatherer. G'day, Gatherer. Otherwise known as Matt. How we doing? Yes, Matt. Hunter and Gatherer. Who will win? Who will win?
Starting point is 00:31:12 We will find out. Bree and I are just two village ladies waiting for you two to return. I hope they bring back venison. Claudia's going to run the game. Hi, Claudia. Hello. That was funny. I need a new pelt.
Starting point is 00:31:29 Mama needs a new rabbit hat. I hope they have some berries. It's fun role play. Okay, Claudia, what are we doing? Okay, this is Guess the Noise. Pretty simple. I'm going to play a noise and you're going to guess what it is. There's always a theme that goes with it and today I was tapped dry creatively. So I did what any good person did and I turned to AI. And I asked chat GTP what it wants me to do today. And what did it want you to do?
Starting point is 00:31:54 All of these sounds. There is no particular theme. Okay, these are just sounds? Yeah, these are just sounds. Random sounds. These are AI's favourite noises. Okay. So Bree and Clint, you guys are going first.
Starting point is 00:32:04 Everyone needs to buzz in with their name when it's their turn. And first team to three points takes home the win. Cool. Brie and Clint, this is for you guys. Clint. Brie. That is a champagne cork popping. You got it.
Starting point is 00:32:17 Oh, I've heard that way too many times. It's etched in my brain. You don't like it. It's okay, Hunter. We got this, okay? All right, gatherer. Time to do your job. Bring home the bacon.
Starting point is 00:32:29 Matt and Hunter, this one's for you guys. Hunter. Hunter. Dog barking. You got it. Jeez, Claudia, this is a new low. The champagne one was pretty good. Yeah, I like the champagne one. Yeah. Okay, we'll see how you go with this one, Bree and Clint. This is a new low. The champagne one was pretty good. Yeah, I like the champagne one.
Starting point is 00:32:46 Yeah. Okay, we'll see how you go with this one, Bree and Clint. This is for you. Clint. Clint. Diving board. Yep. How do you feel about it?
Starting point is 00:32:58 It's a bit better. Gatherer, if you don't gather, we die. All right? Gotcha. You've got to bring it home in this one't gather, we die. All right? Gotcha. You've got to bring it home in this one. Good luck. Okay, Matt and Hunter for you. Hunter.
Starting point is 00:33:12 Matt. Hunter. Carhorn. Yeah. Simple. This is where AI is at, guys. For anyone that loves it. Don't blame AI for your laziness.
Starting point is 00:33:28 They say AI is coming for people's jobs. I think we're pretty safe at the moment. Hey, Hunter, congrats. We've got 50 KFC chicken dollars coming your way. Legend, target. Typical Hunter. Always getting all the glory while the gatherers, we sit back and relax. The Hunter and the Gatherer are the same person.
Starting point is 00:33:47 Are they? Yes, they are. Hunter-gatherers? No, the hunters go out and hunt and the gatherers go out and gather. The gatherers aren't killing things. I thought they were gathering things that they hunted. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:34:03 Yeah, I don't know. I wasn't there for it. If only there was a hunter here we could ask. Yeah don't know. Yeah, I don't know. I wasn't there for it. If only there was a hunter here, we could ask. Yeah. Oh, well. Oh, well. Who's excited for the Olympics? I am so pumped for the Olympic Games.
Starting point is 00:34:23 It's one of my favourite times of the year when it happens. I find that I get excited about two or three days in. Right. I'm like, oh, I forgot. There's all this stuff to watch. I think from like when I was a little kid, like our family would plan holidays around when the Olympics were on. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:34:41 So we could watch as much Olympics as we could. That's so good. Because we were a sport family. We loved watching any type of sports. So The Olympics was like the best time ever. You're getting me excited for the Olympics now. It's super exciting. Did you know it's only 32 days away? Yeah, right. It's 32 days away for the 2024
Starting point is 00:34:55 Paris Olympic Games. It's all going to kick off very, very soon. And I thought we could play a little game that I'm calling Olympic Sport or Not. Where I'm going to test your knowledge, Clinton Roberts, on different events or sports that are either in the Olympics or they're not.
Starting point is 00:35:18 This Olympics or just ever in the Olympics? Let's go with this Olympics. Okay, sure. Okay. All right, to kick it off. Olympic sport or not? Golf. Ah, yes.
Starting point is 00:35:32 Olympic sport. Correct. Yeah. Golf is... I know that because Lydia Ko is often one of our medal hopes. Golf is in the Olympics. Correct.
Starting point is 00:35:41 And it will be in this Olympics as well because sports can come in and out. Should it be? But it is. It is. What about marathon swimming? I know that they want the athletes to swim through the Seine,
Starting point is 00:35:57 which is the disgustingly polluted river that runs through the centre of Paris. Paris. So I'm going to say yes. Marathon swimming is in this Olympics. Well done. What about three-on-three basketball? Not five-a-side like you're normal, like three-on-three. Well, I know real basketball is in the Olympics.
Starting point is 00:36:21 Real basketball is, yes. Is three-on-three basketball. Nah, you wouldn't have both, so I'm going to go no. It is. Oh. Have you ever seen that? No. Neither.
Starting point is 00:36:36 Why would you have three-on-three if you can have full? It's so annoying because they've taken out certain sports, but they've got two types of basketball in there. We've got sevens so that we don't have to have the full rugby. And then, okay, yeah, great. What about breakdancing? Oh, that was a big addition recently. Is it in or out?
Starting point is 00:36:54 They've taken it out. I think they put it in and they're like, what are we up to? And they took it out. Nah, it's still in. Ugh. Still in. Will be featured at this Olympic Games. What about chess? Who's still breakdancing?
Starting point is 00:37:06 Apparently a lot of people. I mean, apart from the B-Boys and the Fly Girls, but who else is breakdancing? Chess. Yes or no? Is it in the Olympics? No. No, it's not a sport.
Starting point is 00:37:19 It's not. You're right. It's not in the Olympics. What about ten-pin bowling? No. Correct. It's not. You're right. It's not in the Olympics. What about ten pin bowling? No. Correct. It's not in. Surfing.

Starting point is 00:37:51 Yes. It was in the last Olympics and they brought it back for another Olympics. Softball. Ooh. Yes. Yes. Because they put it in for the Tokyo because the Japanese love softball so much, so yes. And it's got kicked out again.
Starting point is 00:38:07 Oh, did it? For this Olympics, and then it'll be back for the next Olympics, same as baseball. Jeez, okay. There you go. Well, there you go. The Olympic Games kicks off 32 days away. Where are our medals going to come from this year, I wonder?
Starting point is 00:38:20 Sailing. Oh, yeah, we always dominate the sailing. We're dominating the rowing. Rowing is always good to watch. A lot of our rowers are retired now, but yeah, yeah, we always dominate the sailing. We dominate the rowing. Rowing is always good. A lot of our rowers are retired now, but yeah, yeah. A lot about great. Always. Kayaking, Lisa Carrington.
Starting point is 00:38:31 Kiwis always breed good rowers, though. Don't we? Good shoulders. It's time for my favourite activity, to weigh in on other people's relationships. Yeah. It's fun because it's not your own. Distracts you from the problems in your own relationship's relationships. Yeah. It's fun because it's not your own. Distracts you from the problems in your own relationship.
Starting point is 00:38:47 Exactly. Yeah. Exactly. And this is an anonymous story, so no one's going to get hurt here. But a woman has asked for advice and here's the situation, right? So her and her husband have been together for 18 years. They've been married for six. Okay.
Starting point is 00:39:06 They have no kids. Yeah. And about four years ago, her husband inherited millions of dollars after his mum passed away unexpectedly. Millions of dollars? Yeah, we're talking, it says here the in the article 16 million to be exact r.i.p mum but r.i.p so she says because she talks about in the story that from the start of their relationship they had always agreed to split expenses 50 50 sure um and they would never
Starting point is 00:39:42 share their finances and they lived quite happily in rented properties for most of their relationship. Yeah. So they split all the bills like rent, gas bill, internet, all that. Sure. And she says that her bills came to around $1,200. A month? A month.
Starting point is 00:39:57 Sure. Anyway, she said that their lives dramatically changed when his mother died unexpectedly, leaving $16 million of inheritance, as it would. You've won dead mum lotto. Yeah. That's morbid. It's a weird thing to say, eh?
Starting point is 00:40:16 Yeah, I know. She said that they moved into a fancy new house after that. Yeah. But it was soon that she realised, after they moved into this very fancy house that her husband still expected her to pay half. So her bills went from, apparently her half of the bills went from $1,200 to $1,800 a month. That's a big change. It's gone up 50%.
Starting point is 00:40:44 That's a big change. It's gone up 50%. It's a drastic change. Turns out he had her sign a prenup before they got married. Yeah. And he has now retired. So he spends most of his days golfing, going on holidays, relaxing, while she still works 40-hour weeks and says it won't be any time soon that she will be able to retire. And he's sitting on 16 mil.
Starting point is 00:41:05 Uh-huh. Nah. I'd leave that guy, eh? Yeah. I'd be like, mate. Yeah. Like, I get it. Like, you want everything to be fair and blah, blah, blah,
Starting point is 00:41:14 but you've got 16 million. I don't want everything to be fair. I want my partner to retire with me and enjoy the rest of our life. I want to go on holidays with my partner and have my partner there to, you know, have fun and relax. Unless he doesn't. Unless he doesn't. Unless he doesn't enjoy spending time with her.
Starting point is 00:41:32 Yeah, well, I mean. He mustn't. He mustn't. He mustn't. I joke, but actually he mustn't. Yeah. He mustn't think much of her at all. That sounds like a horrible relationship.
Starting point is 00:41:42 Yeah. Yeah. Like could you imagine ever doing that to your partner? I could not. What if the mum didn't like the partner? And in the will, he just never told her, but in the will it was like. Don't spend a dime with this. Don't give any to her.
Starting point is 00:41:54 Yeah. She's yuck. She's yuck. She's yucky. Ew, don't give any money to her. Ew, gross. I'd be out of there. Yeah, that's rough.
Starting point is 00:42:03 I'd be out of there. I think you and I are on the same page where we're in shared finance relationships and I know not everybody is and that is totally everybody's own personal prerogative. That's all good but when you inherit 16 million. Totally. When your position
Starting point is 00:42:17 changes and you have the ability it's not going to hurt you to help your partner. You help your partner. Help him out. Who else are you going to spend the money on? Exactly. You can't take it with you. You don't have kids.
Starting point is 00:42:30 Don't have a mum. Don't have a mum. Who else are you going to spend the money on? Spend it on your partner. Jesus. Make it so she can retire early. Tied ass. For God's sake.
Starting point is 00:42:42 Anyway, I'd love to know what ends up happening in that relationship. What's this? His bum. That's that man trying to fart. Yeah. It's like a cat's bottom. Bree and Clint. James has called up.
Starting point is 00:42:59 G'day, James. Hi, James. How are we doing? All right? Yeah, we're good, thank you. Who was the big sting, James? Yeah, so I dated a girl when I moved out here and she literally didn't spend a single dollar in about two months
Starting point is 00:43:16 I think. Two months? Two months, yeah. How many dates do you reckon you went on in those two months? I think I clocked it up and it was, we're talking in the thousands of dollars. Wow. I just moved here. Really? We were out all the while. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:33 And then we went out one night and literally it was, we had like a dinner and stuff like that. And she wouldn't get an Uber home. She wouldn't pay for a $20 Uber home. So she just refused to pay for anything, James? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, so it just, we sat at the pub and she just flat out said,
Starting point is 00:43:52 no, I'm not getting it. You just said Mexican standoff. You're like, well, I'm tapped out. I'm not doing anything. That was the end of that. Yeah, wow. What was her excuse, James, that she just wouldn't pay for anything?
Starting point is 00:44:04 Yeah, she said that, yeah, I'm a really nice person. I should be treated like a princess. Oh, wow. Yeah. Oh, she's delusional. Very. Well, I'm glad you're out of that, James. For the best, James.
Starting point is 00:44:18 For the best. Yeah. Shame about the two grand, but, you know. Yeah. I mean. Chalk it up to experience. Yeah, you win some, you lose some. Yeah. And James lost about two grand, but you know. Yeah. I mean. Chalk it up to experience. Yeah, you win some, you lose some. And James lost about two grand.
Starting point is 00:44:27 Someone else texted in and they said, yes, I broke up with my ex after 32 years of marriage because he was the stingiest beep on earth. One year for our anniversary, he gave me an egg timer. An egg timer. And when we were separating, he withheld £200,000 in an offshore account so it wouldn't be part of the settlement. You're kidding. Obviously
Starting point is 00:44:49 she found out about it. I'm texting because I can't call. I'm in the middle of editing my book called COVID Divorce. There you go. Look at you. There you go. Anonymous is here. Hi Anonymous. Hi Anonymous. Hi there. Who was the big stingy person?
Starting point is 00:45:07 So my partner's friend, he's in a relationship and they obviously go halves on pretty much everything. But when he goes to the supermarket, he'll go through the list and if there's any sanitary items on there, he refuses to pay for them because he says it's her problem. You're kidding. Yeah, so he's like, oh no, you have to pay for them because he says it's her problem. You're kidding. Yeah, it's really sad.
Starting point is 00:45:26 Yeah, so he's like, oh, no, you have to pay more because that's your thing. That's your thing. What? Yeah, I know. I know. It's pretty bad. What a D-bag.
Starting point is 00:45:36 I just don't talk about it as a group. With people like that, with men like that, I always wonder, like, did he have a mum growing up? He needs to be educated. Did he have sisters growing up? Yeah, like, did he have a mum growing up? He needs to be educated. Did he have sisters growing up? Yeah, well, he had two sisters, so you would think so. But, yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:52 God. So, Anonymous, can I ask, because this is your friend, do you guys ever comment on how crappy that is? It kind of came out one night at a drink, and everyone had a bit too much to drink, and they kind of had a fight about it in front of everyone. Oh, that's so embarrassing for her. Did they break up? No, they're still together.
Starting point is 00:46:13 Yeah, it's kind of like untalked about. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, right. But you guys know you've got that up your sleeve if you ever need to be like... 100%. It's just a big red flag, literally. Literally a red flag.
Starting point is 00:46:26 Yeah. I looked at my partner straight away, like, if you ever did that. And he would have been like, absolutely not. Big red flag. I mean, big red flag. Thanks, Anonymous.
Starting point is 00:46:36 James, who called up before, who said that he was dating a girl for two months, spent two grand on dates, and she said, I'm a nice person. I deserve to be treated like a princess. Someone's texted in, and they've said, hey she said, I'm a nice person. I deserve to be treated like a princess. Someone's text in and they've said, hey, James, I'm single and I'm an independent woman.
Starting point is 00:46:50 Hit me up. Oh, that's good energy, James. If you're still listening, text us back. We'll connect you guys. Yeah, we can link you guys. If James is single, he might not be. He might have found a new love and moved on. I reckon just to set the tone,

Here we go, not long ago, we would walk on the sidewalk Innocent, remember, all we did was care for each other But the night was warm, we were bold and young All around, the wind blows, we would only hold on to let go
Starting point is 00:50:58 Black is, fire a gun, we need someone to lean on Black is, fire a gun, all we need is somebody to lean on Block is, fire a gun, we need someone to lean on Block is, fire a gun, all we need is somebody to lean on Major Lazer and Moo on ZM. That's Lean On. It's the winner of Birthday Banger for Tegan. It came out in 2015. That means next year that song will be a decade old.
Starting point is 00:51:55 Ten years old. Oh, my gosh. Yeah. Is it 2024? Yeah. Oh, shit. I thought it was 2023. I was listening to someone on the radio this morning,
Starting point is 00:52:06 and they were talking about something that happened in 2018 and they were like, it's crazy to think that that was four years ago. I was like, no, that's six. No, that's eight years ago. Oh, six. Well, you've overshot the mark there. They undershot it. You've overshot it.
Starting point is 00:52:19 I was close. Next, we're going to talk about character AI. Yeah, apparently this is all the rage with the younger generations and they're saying that the amount of people using this website is like one-fifth of the traffic that goes to Google. Really?
Starting point is 00:52:36 Yeah. They're saying that's how popular this is. What is Character AI? Yeah, what even is it? Well, I'll tell you all about it next. AI is everywhere. Chat GPT is the one we hear about the most. But another website is gaining a lot of popularity, especially with the younger people.
Starting point is 00:52:56 It's called Character AI. Okay. And apparently the amount of traffic that is going through this website at the moment is just enormous. Like people are just flocking to this website to use it. So I'm here to tell you what it's about. So essentially, you can go onto this website and you can talk to different characters and have conversations with people.
Starting point is 00:53:23 What do you mean by characters? So what I mean by characters, it could be your favourite character from a movie or a cartoon. Or like fictional characters. It can be fictional characters. It can be historical. It can be even like characters like Jesus. Jesus?
Starting point is 00:53:40 Or the devil. Okay. Like anything. Like any character or anything. Steve Irwin. Wow. It can Okay. Like anything. Yeah. Like any character or anything. Steve Irwin. Wow. It can be Steve Irwin. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:53:49 Essentially, it was launched by two former Google engineers. Yeah. So, you know they're good. And their goal was to realise the full potential of human-computer interaction and to bring joy and value to billions of people. Yeah, okay. So it was to create, you know, something that was nice for people. I wonder how much stuff there needs to be about this person online
Starting point is 00:54:14 for the AI to be able to interpret them, you know? It's a good question. It's a good question and I'm here to answer those questions because I have put this to the test. Right, okay. I've made an account on Character AI and I have gone to the website and uploaded a small audio clip of a character or a real person actually that I would love to have a conversation with in real life.
Starting point is 00:54:37 Yeah. But I can't because they're famous. Right. Morgan Freeman and I this afternoon had a conversation using character AI. How much did you upload? Literally 15 seconds of audio. Okay. And look, it is shaky in parts, but we've grabbed the audio
Starting point is 00:54:56 because you can have just a normal text conversation. I opted for text and for speech. Sure. So he talks to you as I'm typing to him. Yeah. So I said, hi, Morgan. My name is Bree. How's your day going so far?
Starting point is 00:55:11 And Morgan Freeman, the AI version said, Hey, Bree, nice to meet you. My day's going pretty well. Just taking it easy. Enjoying the summer weather. How about you? Wow. So Morgan.
Starting point is 00:55:24 Hey, hey. It's early days early days okay so just keep it a bun i can do that morgan freeman i said nice to hear you've got some nice weather it's pretty cold here in new zealand at the moment at the moment i'm okay feeling pretty overwhelmed lately do you ever feel like that oh new zealand is a beautiful country. Yes, I do feel overwhelmed sometimes. It's normal to feel that way. What's got you feeling overwhelmed? He's now asking and helping me. The Morgan Freeman.
Starting point is 00:55:54 Yes. The Morgan. I said, have you been to New Zealand before? What was your favourite part? And I think it's just life in general and how busy it can get sometimes. Any advice on how you can make yourself feel better when you're feeling that way? Oh, two questions in there.
Starting point is 00:56:11 Two questions. I've been to New Zealand a few times and it's truly a beautiful country. The breathtaking landscapes are just incredible. When I'm feeling overwhelmed, I usually like to take some time for myself to relax and unwind. What I do when I feel
Starting point is 00:56:25 overwhelmed is take a step back, prioritize what really matters and remind myself it's okay not to have everything figured out. What helps you de-stress usually, Bree? Why'd you talk so fast, Morgan? Yeah, I feel like the pace was off in that one. Anyway, I just said that's great advice. I usually try and exercise regularly and talk to the people closest to me. Makes me feel a little bit better usually. Really appreciate the chat. Talk soon. And Morgan Freeman said, why are you lying
Starting point is 00:56:54 about that exercise, Bree? I'm a robot. I know everything. And I said, shut up, AI. You don't know me. Anyway. Look. It's quite, you know what? It's early days.
Starting point is 00:57:07 And you ridicule these things at your peril because it is early days. I'm not. And what they'll be able to do. That didn't sound like Morgan Freeman. But in fairness, the things that AI Morgan Freeman was saying actually brought me a little bit of comfort and was quite nice. And if it can do that for someone, I think great. But isn't that terrifying because then the robots are playing
Starting point is 00:57:28 to your emotional vulnerabilities. My issue is that's just the voice. Like, I want to know how much data about a person do they need to be able to respond as Morgan Freeman would, you know? Well, that was 15 seconds of audio. That's what I mean. So, I mean, it's not going to be perfect, is it? No.
Starting point is 00:57:46 No. With 15 seconds of audio. That's what I mean. So I mean it's not going to be perfect, is it? No. No. With 15 seconds. I know. Yeah. I know. How much do we have to give it so that it like – Is perfect. So it is perfect.
Starting point is 00:57:56 It's got a little way to go. How much of yourself do you have to give to it so you can upload a version of yourself, you know? Oh, that's creepy. So that it can do your job. So you can live on forever as a machine. So when you die, your family can still talk to you. Have you seen that TV show called Upload? No.
Starting point is 00:58:15 And it's where they take your consciousness and then they upload it. Well, is that what they reckon we're headed towards? Oh, I don't know if I like that. Yeah. I don't know. I don't think I want to live forever. Thanks, Morgan Freeman. That's awesome.
Starting point is 00:58:28 Regular exercise and talking to those close to you are great ways to cope with feeling overwhelmed. I'm glad it helps. It's been great chatting with you. Take care, and I'll talk to you again soon. I feel like I'm watching The Shawshank Redemption. It's seamless, isn't it? I've got the question of the day
Starting point is 00:58:45 for you all. And I've just sold it off Instagram Reels. So everyone might have seen this question of the day about six months ago on TikTok. But to me, it's a new question. I'm always up for a question that makes me think, which is most. And you can all text in an answer to this, by the way.
Starting point is 00:59:02 To this. Okay. And I'll just say before I play it, I've thought about this quite a bit and I think I've got the answer. Okay. Okay, I think I've distilled it down. But is it going to be different for everyone? You think so.
Starting point is 00:59:15 Okay. But I think actually, I think I'm right. Right. But here's the, do not overthink it. Let's just listen to the question of the day. Today's question of the day is what is the biggest animal that you think you could fight
Starting point is 00:59:25 with your bare hands? You've got to last, like, at least a minute. You can't use anything. It's just you and the animal. Go. What is it? Claudia, what are we fighting? Bare hands.
Starting point is 00:59:35 You've got to stay in the fight for a minute minimum. Realistically, something teeny tiny. But I'm trying to think of the biggest animal that's gentle, but maybe like a sloth or something. They're pretty sturdy. They've got pretty sharp claws. Yeah, they've got big claws but maybe like a sloth or something. They're pretty sturdy. Sloth, they've got pretty sharp claws. Yeah, they've got big claws. They're not going to get me.
Starting point is 00:59:47 They're very slow. They're freaky looking. Okay. I'll accept sloth. I'm disappointed you didn't set your sights a little bit higher, but I'll accept it. Okay, shark on land. No.
Starting point is 01:00:00 Yeah, you didn't say anything about what the arena would be. Their natural environment. Oh, neutral territory. Their natural environment. Oh, neutral territory. Neutral territory. So what would neutral territory be? Shallow water? Waste deep water, yeah.
Starting point is 01:00:13 Oh, waste deep. God, Claudia, you're a dick. Okay, no sharks. No sharks. No sharks. Ella. Okay, this sounds ridiculous, but I've had them growing up. I know how to deal with the scratches. A cat.
Starting point is 01:00:24 Okay. I do. I know how to deal with the scratches. A cat. Oh, okay. I do. I know how to deal with it. A house cat. Well, what the heck else am I going to fight? A bear? No. Get one of those big cats.
Starting point is 01:00:31 Like a Maine Coon. Yeah, we don't think that you couldn't fight a cat. Yeah, that's fine. Yeah, literally, I'm not. Yeah. I'm not. Are we aiming to get the biggest animal? Yes, correct.
Starting point is 01:00:40 Okay. Lion? No. No. But there's a lot of animals between lion and house cat. Fine. A koala. Is that smaller than a cat?
Starting point is 01:00:47 I would not go near a koala. Oh, my gosh. The chlamydia won't get you for at least the first minute. Koalas will scratch your eyes out. Okay. House cat. Bree, what's the animal? I've been tossing up between a few.
Starting point is 01:00:59 Look, I reckon I could easily take a large size mongoose. Oh, mongoose. Mongoose. Aren't they super aggressive? Yeah. Yeah, I reckon I could take those. They kill snakes. Little buggers, I reckon I could just... It's only one.
Starting point is 01:01:13 They work in packs. Oh, okay. Yeah, right. So it's just me and one mongoose. Too wily for me, but yeah, okay. Or a hairy-nosed wombat, the biggest one. Oh, okay. Because they're so placid.
Starting point is 01:01:24 I thought that was your nickname. That's my off-air nickname. That's her drag name. Yeah, that's my drag name. More like bald eagles. I was going to say, you're the hairless wombat, aren't you? I'm the hairless wombat. Yeah, I would take a wombat for sure.
Starting point is 01:01:41 They're so slow. You put them on their back and they don't move. Good answer. Are they a marsupial? I don't consider any marsupials. Mars wombat for sure. Okay, good answer. They're so slow. You put them on their back and they don't move. But they're big. I didn't consider. Are they a marsupial? I didn't consider any marsupials. Marsupial. No.
Starting point is 01:01:48 Okay. Well, I know you've all been waiting for my answer. Here we go. Goose. It's a goose. You couldn't take on a goose. I could take a goose. No way.
Starting point is 01:01:58 I could take a goose. I reckon I'm so scared of a goose. They're so aggressive. Have you been down to that park? You're irrationally scared of them. They're just going to pick you. They're just going to pick you. Have you ever been picked by a bird?
Starting point is 01:02:12 Yeah, I've been picked by a bird. I've been picked by swans and geese. I could take a swan too. Have you seen their teeth though? Where'd you meet her? Yeah, exactly. Soft, soft, soft body animal. They'll bite you.

Starting point is 01:02:42 A goose? Sorry, goose. Or a swan? A swan. Yeah. Have you ever seen a swan? What's scarier? A goose? Sorry, goose. Or a swan? A swan. Yeah. Have you ever seen a swan when it's like protecting its babies? Any kind of goose too. Any goose.
Starting point is 01:02:51 I've fight a serious goose, silly goose. Any goose, any time, any place. Any goose, any time. Mate, I reckon we take Clint down to Western Springs. Fight, fight, fight. And you have to pat a goose on the head to prove that you're not afraid. Okay. Okay, yeah.
Starting point is 01:03:07 Yeah, yeah. Find me the goose. Some early text. A panda? No, you could not find a panda. A panda would rip you to shreds. A giant tortoise? No, you couldn't.
