I imagine they just added chocolate chips to the regular hot cross buns. Nah. No that would be fruit and not hot cross buns. So instead of the spices they add cocoa powder and instead of the fruit they add chocolate chips. It's like real chocolate fruit and not hot cross buns. So instead of the spices, they add cocoa powder and instead of the fruit, they add chocolate chips. It's like real chocolate. It's really nice. They're real good. Yeah, right. So it's essentially bread with chocolate. What's the best

Easter egg? Oh, a marshmallow egg every time. What's a Turkish delight egg? You've never had one? The little Turkish delight ones? Oh yeah, nah, they're good. Oh, you would love those. Yeah, but that's a little one. You know, you want the six pack, you want to smash those. Still Easter egg.

let me tell you about that. Yeah, break it down. A friend of mine sent me a Snapchat. Don't quote me on the details, but I believe there's 20 new locations of interest. I thought this was going to... They sent you a Snapchat of...

No, wait. It goes somewhere. So there's 20 new exposure sites, I think, in Mount Maunganui today. I saw that, yeah. Seven of them are at the local strip club. Oh, no. So happy hump day. Oh, God.

Well, at least they're traceable. Yeah, I don't think there's much social distancing that goes on in a strip club either. That's not what you pay for. Yeah, the few times I've been to one, I don't think there's much social distancing that goes on in a strip club either. That's not what you pay for. Yeah, the few times I've been to one, I don't recall social distancing. No, you literally pay for the opposite of what I've heard. Oh, so you've heard. So I've heard. I've never been.

It's the story of Jacob Lister who went to the hairdresser in Palmerston North to get a haircut. No backlog in Palmerston North. It's not like Auckland. They're not like clambering to get in there. They've had haircuts for the last three months. They haven't been in theston North. It's not like Auckland. They're not like clambering to get in there. They've had haircuts for the last three months. They haven't been in the same lockdown.

No. Jacob hasn't had a haircut for the last three months though. He's been growing his hair for the last two years. And he went in for a haircut. He just wanted, he wanted, he said it was sort of down to the middle of his back and he wanted it brought up to shoulder length, but he still wanted long hair.

So he wanted a Karen bob. A little bit, a little bit. Have a listen to him explaining how it went down at the hairdressers in Palmy North. So I brought my girlfriend in who, as a model, she has the exact haircut that I asked for and the initial response to that was, you don't want their haircut, that's a girl's haircut,

which I thought was a joke. And then when I left, she said, now you have a boy's haircut. You have a boy's haircut because I cut all your hair off without asking your permission. He left with, it's like a, it didn't look well done. It's like a mullet to me. It looks a bit mullety because they've obviously gone, hack, hack, hack, hack, and chopped it off,

which is such an invasion of like personal everything. I feel like every girl will be sitting listening to this going, welcome to the club. Someone cut all your hair off once. Every time you go to the hairdresser, you say, I want this two centimetres off and they end up cutting about 16 centimetres off because they're like, no, see, that part wasn't healthy.

It happens nearly every time. Is that why you don't get your hair cut anymore? Yeah. You know you joke, but that's actually true. Really? Yeah, because my hair, I don't want it any shorter. I'm so terrified. Yeah.

And to be honest, actually, most hairdressers that I go to in the last however long, if you say, I really don't want any more than this off. They're pretty good. The thing about hairdressers is they're not mind readers. No, that's the thing. You have to be very explicit with what you want because otherwise you leave it up to interpretation. Take a picture if you can. But he did.

He took a real life model, his girlfriend, and said give me that. I'd like to see a picture of her and then compare. Yeah, it's a bob. It's a shoulder length bob. You're right. And that's what he was after. It's weird to me that she was able to take off so much without him noticing because he said at the

end he had a look and all his hair was gone but maybe she got it in one go like, and took the whole lot off. If he's like me, then the countless times where I've sat in the hairdresser chair and just said nothing and been like, it's too much, it's too much, it's too much. It's what he said he did too.

He paid and left because he didn't want to burst into tears. Yeah, and then you get to the register and they're like, that's $660 and you're like, okay. He has been offered a refund, some hair product, because I mean he's got hair that he needs to style now, and a couple of vouchers. But I don't think he'll be going back to the same Palm Mr North hairdresser salon.

I don't think you'd go back. Even if you had free vouchers, I don't think you'd go back. Also, he wants to grow his hair back, so he's not going back to the hairdresser. Can we talk about hairdressing, haircut, horror stories this afternoon? Have you had something like this happen to you? Or maybe it was something to do with the dye? Or maybe, I don't know, what was the horror story that happened

the last time you went in to get your hair done? My mum's a hairdresser. Yeah. And I'd love to hear from the hairdressers too because I bet they have their fair share of horror stories themselves. Yeah. My mum said she went to cut this. It was about 14-year-old kid's hair once.

And she saw him sitting off to the side because his mum dropped him off and he's sitting there and he's itching and he's moving around. Oh, no. And then he sits in the chair and my mum said she parted his hair and just stacked full of nets. Yeah, that'll be an occupational hazard. Give us your haircut horror stories on 0800DARLS.NM or you can text them in to us as well on 9696.

We're talking about hairdressing horror stories after a man in Parmy went in with long, long hair, especially for a dude, and the hairdresser cut it all off. They said, no, you need a boy's haircut, and they just cut it off. Not cool, man. Not cool on so many levels.

I mean, he does have a pretty cool mullet now, though. He doesn't want it. I know, but I love mullets. He said that he doesn't identify with himself in the mirror anymore. Like, he hates it. Yeah. He's imparming. He's imparming.

Don't vox him into it. I'll tell you a hairdressing horror story. My mum did all of our haircuts and colours until I was about 18. And I remember she used to, and hairdressers will know this, or old school hairdressers. My mum, the first time I ever wanted foils, so like, you know, where they just put highlights. The highlights, yeah.

And back in the day, the only way to do it is she'd put this big, like, silicone cap over your head. Oh, the frosting cap where they pull the bits of hair through? And then she gets this hook and she'd like pull these pieces of hair and every time she'd pull it through this silicone cap, it would just like hurt like anything. Yeah, right. It was terrible.

I forgot I've got a hairdressing horror story. You cut my hair last year. Hey, I did a pretty good job. And you organised for me to get a perm that time. Both of my hairdressing stories involve you. Great experiences for you. That burnt my scalp, that perm. Lee's here. Hi, Lee. Hi, Lee. Hey, how's it going? Good, thanks. This is about your friend. Yeah, my friend Lucy. She wanted a big change, so she decided to go blonde, went to the hairdresser,

they applied the bleach, and about 30 seconds after they finished putting it all on, her hair started melting off. They forgot to ask her if she'd had any treatments beforehand. She didn't think to mention she'd had keratin straightening, and so she left the salon with about an inch of hair and very miserable. That's to bash. It melted all of her hair off. It melted off as they were pulling off the

foil. The hair was coming off in chunks with it and they couldn't save it. One too many things on the old hair and then the hair literally turns into like a mushy substance. Exactly. It was like elastic as they were pulling out the foils. I was standing there watching. She called me

in tears and the hair was just falling out, and they still charged her for it. What? Wow, I'm not sure about that. Oh, no. Because I was going to say, whose fault is that? She didn't tell them, but they didn't ask. I feel like everybody's in the wrong.

I feel like the hairdresser should know the question first. They know what's in the product. Oh, that poor woman. Power loose. Yeah. Oh, God. Gracie is here. Hi, Gracie. G'day, Gracie. Hi. How are that poor woman. Yeah. Oh, God. Gracie is here. Hi, Gracie.

G'day, Gracie. Hi. How are you? Good, thanks. What's your hairdressing horror story? Oh, so I had a mum, my mum's friend said, oh, I've got a friend, you know, she's got a home salon. So we popped in and she started cutting

and then she's like, oh, these scissors are far too blunt. She's like, I'll get new ones. I'm like, okay, cool, not a problem. Then she gets the new ones out and she's like, oh, actually these are too sharp. I'll just go back to using the other ones. And I was like, oh, okay, like real nervous. Anyway, ended up getting in the car and she took like heaps off because I had quite long hair when I was younger and took it up to like the shoulder length and you could just see how jagged it was at the bottom. And I was like, my mum's like,

oh, like trying to do that real, like I feel bad for you. Yeah. Oh, good. And she could just see the tears welling up in my eyes. No. No. I would love to hear from a hairdresser.

I didn't know that scissors being too sharp was a thing. I thought the sharper the better. You'd want them sharp. And then turns out, though, that this lady and her friends, like, have a couple of wines on their lunch break, so I shouldn't have booked the after lunch appointment. I love this text on the text machine. Someone said, I'm a hairdresser and I went to another hairdresser to treat myself.

I walked out with orange hair instead of a deep red and they cut my hair into a different style as she felt it didn't suit me. See, it's when they go, I've heard what you want, but I'm going to do something else. That's when there's a real issue. That's when you're not going to have a happy customer. Sarah, finally. Hi, Sarah. Hi. What's your hairdressing horror story?

Oh, so I was about 20. I went to the hairdresser just to get two inches off. I had hair under my bum. Just taking two inches off, keep the hair healthy. I fell asleep, woke up, hair was at my shoulders. I cried for days I was traumatised I haven't been to the hairdresser now For three whole years

Yeah, I bet you haven't Good that they took care of the hair underneath your bum You don't want it there Yeah, I think you want to phrase that one differently, Sarah Sarah, what did you say? Like when you woke up and you saw what had happened I bet you said nothing Because you saw what had happened, I bet you said nothing because that's what I would have done.

Yeah, I literally was just like didn't say a thing, just walked out, didn't even thank them, nothing. And cried in the car? Yeah. Yeah, me too. Wow. Well, I hope they donated all your beautiful hair. That seems like such a waste.

Yeah, that could be made into a wig. Yeah, it's like a metre of hair. Alright, well thanks for sharing Sarah and good luck ever going back to the hairdresser if you ever pluck up the courage. Sarah's like, I've taken a polytech course to cut my own hair now. I want to talk about this Instagram trend that's happening at the moment where

everyone is sharing their Urban Dictionary name. Yeah, it's the new share your pet and we'll plant a tree. Yeah, it's gone viral. I don't really get it because they're not that funny. Like put them up and they're like, like it doesn't say that much to me. I thought Urban Dictionary was kind of meant

to be a little bit funny. Yeah, right. Like a little bit off, a little bit naughty. But most of it is like. A little bit naughty, hey? Yeah, you know, like it's meant to have swear words and stuff like that. They define gross words and stuff like that. But it's always just like, Amy is sunshine.

I think it's quite nice. What's urban about it though? I don't know. What's urban about it? I've been and found yours on Urban Dictionary, by the way. Have you? Do you want to hear what your actual Urban Dictionary one is? Yeah.

Okay, it says right here. Brie is a girl who is unforgettable. She lights up a room when she walks into it. Brie is the girl everyone dreams to be. She's a goddess and is truly amazing. She makes guys drool. Everyone wants to hang out with her and talk to her. She isn't the popular girl.

That's true, actually. She's the understudy to the popular girl. That's true, actually. She's the understudy to the popular girl. That'd be true. Sure, Brie isn't perfect, but she's still worth it. Also true. She is a drama queen. True. At times, but she will get over it. That's also true.

Pretty accurate. Maybe you should share yours, then. I looked up yours. I typed in Clint to Urban Dictionary and it says the most sensitive part of a woman and the place where she wants you to spend a lot of time. Oh no, I think I've typed in something else. You've missed an N.

Oh, I missed it. I've missed it. If I was going to correct your Urban Dictionary, why don't it read, Bree loves cheese. Bree's digestive system hates cheese. Bree cheese, not the same Bree. Bree loves dogs, farts too much.

That's pretty accurate too. I think that is what... That's pretty accurate. An accurate Urban Dictionary. I feel like yours would be, not a regular dad A cool dad Loves to get out in the garden

And use all the tools Also loves cars Mainly just Audis Because they're the only cool types of cars Not working on them Just owning them Just owning them Does he know how to change a tyre on the car?

No But he looks cool driving Not this car Most cars yes Not this car I don't, yes, not this car. I don't even know how they work. Does anyone anymore? The producers have been urban dictionaring us as well.

What has it come up with, guys? Weirdly for mine, Clint, it's come up with just a normal guy, but really enjoys the luxuries of life, like buying Lewis Road milk. Oh, yeah, that's good. That's good. I actually hate buying. No, I like drinking it, I don't enjoy buying it

It's so expensive Yeah, a little bit eggsy Yeah, well what does it say about Brie? Brie put here a complicated girl who spends all her hard earned money On unnecessary items off the internet That's about right Eyebrow stamp How's that going for you?

I use it, never No, never. Bree and Clint from iHeartRadio. This is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy. Dean, this story is everywhere today, and it's about Jennifer Lawrence and the trauma and aftermath effects of having her nudes leaked into the media hat on her. It was in 2014, if anyone remembers, her iCloud account got hacked.

A lot of stars actually had their iCloud hacked that time. And photos of her that were private photos that her and her boyfriend at the time, you know, shared with each other privately, were leaked. And if you recall, I actually remember the day so well because Perez Hilton's site, who I followed very rigorously at the time, he posted them uncensored.

I'll never forget it. And it was so disgusting. It was so disgusting. And obviously different outlets around the world shared them. And she's come out now, what is it, 2021? And she shared how that traumatized her. And it still to this day traumatizes her. She said in an interview with Vanity Fair, she said,

anybody can go and look at my naked body without my consent any time of the day. Because once they're out there like that, they're out there like that. I remember at the time Perez Hilton received a cease, I don't know, I'm not sure if you call it a cease and desist letter, but he got a letter from her lawyers. and that because they were so illegally accessed, anyone who published them was going to be basically sued. So he pulled them off and all these huge sites pulled them down. But obviously they're still out there.

Honestly, it's so crazy to me. Like 2014 doesn't seem like all that long ago And I can't believe that people like Perez Hilton Like how is that guy not being cancelled? Like there's other people being cancelled But he He kind of has I think that was pretty much the beginning of the end for him, right?

Dean, like the His website's still going No, I know it's still going But he's not a thing Like you don't associate with him He's not a thing anymore Nah, he's not the go-to guy for celeb gossip. He became nasty.

Coupled with the Britney stuff and all of that, it's kind of like... I don't think he was ever nice. He was nasty for a long time, wasn't he, Dean? Yeah, he was really, really horrible. And he went low. Like, he outed people. I remember he outed the guy from NSYNC,

it's gone blank on his name. Yeah, he was some dark stuff. Lance Bass. Yeah, Lance Bass. If he did that now, he'd be so cancelled. He is kind of already cancelled, it's gone blank on his name. Yeah, he was some dark stuff. Lance Bass. Yeah, Lance Bass. If he did that now, he'd be so cancelled. He is kind of already cancelled, though.

I don't, yeah, I don't even think about him anymore, to be honest. Wild. Oh, I feel so horrible for her because she's recently had a baby, hasn't she? Yes.

Yeah. Yeah, she's, love her. She's like the coolest chick in Hollywood, too. She's like, she's amazing. So sending her goodbye today.

There you go. That is the latest live out of Los Angeles She's amazing. So I'm sending her a goodbye today. There you go. That is the latest live out of Los Angeles with Dean McCarthy.

Yeah. And then now we're filling it with gifts for her for Christmas this year. What do you mean filling it with gifts? No. How many gifts does the dog get? Little knickknacks and things. So what have you got for the dog already this Christmas? Oh, well, I can't say.

Well, technically we got her a Christmas one, which has candy canes on it, and then we also got her one for Easter. So it's got

rabbits on it. I don't have children yet, okay? This is all I have! Don't take it away from me! You and your partner are going to be there on Christmas, like, okay, open your gift, open your gift. Open, what do you think? She's like, I'm a dog, I don't have thumbs.

And then I think there's a few other things we've got to. A few other things? You know, because it's interesting. What have you told her to get you for Christmas? Well, she better bloody get me something good because she hasn't paid rent all year. I said to you off air, I was like, you know, in my family growing up, because we lived on a farm

out in country Queensland, so we had a heap of pets, but we had our main pets, which was a dog and three cats. They all had their own stocking that would sit over our fireplace in amongst like our family stockings. Yeah, right. You're one of those families then. Yeah. And Santa knew that we had stockings for all of them and he would put presents in for all of them every year. And it was the best part. I used to love watching my dog get her presents on Christmas. I'm sounding quite grinchy, but I do like, I mean,

I believe in do whatever makes you happy. And if your dog does appreciate it, then great. She loves it. I just think you could get away with one Christmas gift for the dog. Yeah. I think whatever, I think, I just think. That get away with one Christmas gift for the dog. Yeah. I think whatever, I just think. Oh, that's a bit stingy though, isn't it? You know, I looked into a very relevant article on the NZ Herald.

Right. It's from 2015. Okay. And it was a survey done where they asked people in New Zealand, do you get your pets Christmas presents? Right. And they split it up into cats and dogs. How many, what percentage of New Zealand folk do you think got their cat a gift for Christmas?

I reckon less than people who got their dog. That's correct. And I reckon 30% of New Zealanders buy their cat a Christmas present. 51% of New Zealanders get their cat a gift for Christmas. How many for the dogs? 75? Yes! Yeah, right. That's a lot of presents. Am I a bad cat dad for not getting my cats Christmas

presents? You should get them something, even if it's just like a food treat. We got them these Christmas outfits once and they hated them with a passion. Yeah, well that's not a present for them. That's a present for you guys. Yeah, absolutely. So get them some sort of food they really love. That's a good gift. Right, okay.

Yeah. Let's take some calls this afternoon from people who are planning on gifting their pets this Christmas. What are you getting for your animal? And how much are you spending? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Where are the people who are going all out on their animals this Christmas? Are you buying your pets gifts for Christmas?

0800 DIALZM or you can text us on 9696. Or does this whole conversation confuse you and you hate it? You can call us too. We'd like to hear from you. Bree and Clint. We're talking pet presents. What's my favourite part about Christmas? Pet Christmas presents.

How hard are you going? How much is the animal getting? You'd be in a bit of strife if you get better presents for the dog than you do for your partner. You need to make sure this is well balanced. I'll be even. No, I don't think it's even.

I'll spend the same on the dog as I do on my partner. No, I think you need... Even Stevens. I think you got a little bit more on the partner. Okay, maybe a little bit more. At least one more gift depending on how many you get for the dog.

Deal. You know, just to keep the... also to keep the dog in check. The dog doesn't think it's higher up the picking water than it is. She already thinks she's Lady Muck. Let's ask some people if they're buying gifts for their animals. Kelly's here. Merry Christmas, Kelly. Hi, Kelly.

Hi, Merry Christmas. Tell us, presents for the pets, yes or no? Yes, definitely. I've got a dog and he gets a stocking filled with treats and balls and other little things as well as the big presents under the tree. So he gets like a licky mat which you can put dog peanut butter on and toys to rip up and all sorts. Do you get him new presents every year?

Because I feel like if you put the dog's existing ball in a stocking, he would be just as excited. Kelly, I don't know about your dog, but they know, right? My dog knows when a toy is new or not. Really? Yeah. He'll probably sniff it and look at me going, yeah, where's my new one? No, only because you've spoiled him. Only because you've spoiled him every Christmas. All of their saliva and everything's all over and they're like, I've used this one. Piper's here. Hi, Piper. Hi, Piper. Hi. Your grandma gets your pet presents. Is that right? Yeah.

So every year, both of them, she's got two little ones. They get a stocking each and it's got like two toys and all that fun stuff in it. But this year she took it a step further and they've got a big present this year to share between two of them. And it's an automatic ball thrower so she doesn't have to do it.

Oh, my God, I want this one so bad. Yeah, it's pretty cool. It came the other day and we opened it together. It's pretty sick. It looks awesome. So the dog, you teach the dog to put the ball into the funnel and then it rolls back down and then you teach the dog to press the button and then it throws it for the dog?

That's going to take the pressure off Grandma's joints so she doesn't have to throw it anymore. What's your excuse, Bree? Why do you need an automatic ball throwing machine? I'm so lazy. Your words, not mine. I'm very lazy. Someone else on the text machine said, I've only bought my dog presents so far. Haven't started buying for the family.

I love that. They're all dog people. It's all dogs getting presents this Christmas. Melissa's here. for the family. I love that. They're all dog people. It's all dogs getting presents this Christmas. Melissa's here. Hi, Melissa. Hi, Melissa. Hello. Tell us, are you buying gifts for your dogs this Christmas? Yeah, every year. It's a little something, but this year I've got bacon flavoured ice cream. Oh my God, is this that new New Zealand company? Yes, yeah, that was an even Yeah, I saw this on Instagram the other night

So they're doing like all dog flavoured ice creams Yes, yep, I just couldn't go past that Hey, what was the name of that company again, Melissa? Scoop Dog Scoop Dog, I'm going to buy some for Whitney for Christmas Is it dog specific ice cream? Yes, made for dogs so they can eat it It comes in a powder form and you mix it up.

Oh, you mix it up. Right, right, right. Because I was going to say, I'd try bacon ice cream. We could probably test it. No, I don't want to have the dog one. I'll get some and we'll taste it. It's an all-natural human grade, so give it a try. I'll get some and we can test it in there.

Sounds good, Melissa. Oh, your dogs are so lucky. If you don't get around to it, that's okay. It's just a fleeting idea. I have purchased it. It is coming. It's proudly made in Dunedin. Oh, proudly.

Hey, thanks, Melissa. Merry Christmas. Thanks, Mel. What's the dog's name? Oh, Vila. Vila. Very lucky dog. Bacon-flavoured ice cream.

To be honest, even I'd like that. Yeah, I'd like bacon flavoured ice cream too. Sounds pretty good to me. With a bit of something, yeah. Someone said every Christmas I get my cat catnip. Kia ora, this is Toby Mann. I'm the host of Gone By Lunchtime, a podcast for the spin-off podcast network

all about politics and politicians with me, Annabel Lee-Mather and Ben Thomas, careering wildly from the very serious to the very ridiculous. It's not for everyone. I don't think it would be Ellen's cup of tea, but you, I reckon, will love it. Gone by lunchtime.

Grab one now wherever you get your podcasts. I don't know about you guys, but I've been listening to the Adele album non-stop. And like everyone has, it's the, I think, the best launch of a record this year. Like any record that's been released, it's broken all the records. I think the work they've done around it, it's probably the best launch I've ever seen.

It's huge. The Oprah stuff, the TikTok stuff, even her on TikTok saying, I don't want to be on TikTok. What a great TikTok video. I know. You know? Yeah, she's just, I mean, it's been, but I think the main thing and I read this article today on News Hub and it was talking

about why people connect with her music so much and it was talking about the science behind why do sad songs make you feel good. Right, okay. Which, I mean, I feel like most people can relate to that in some way, shape or form. I don't know that I ever seek out sad music, but for some reason it's forever popular. Like Adele, for example, was the biggest artist in the world.

I definitely have always been a person that seeks comfort in music in really hard times. It just does something for me. And I feel like a lot, I mean, that's why music is so popular. It does that for a lot of people. But this article talks about the theories around why it actually does that for people. Okay.

So one of the theories, and it's a biological theory, is that it says when we experience real-life loss or empathise with another's pain, hormones such as prolactin and oxytocin are released within us. These help us cope with loss and pain. They do so by making us feel calmed, consoled and supported. So they reckon that when you are listening, and obviously it's Adele's pain

or like whoever's song and you're kind of empathising with that person. Yeah. Your nervous system responds to it as if it's your pain and medicates you with your own oxytocin. Well, they reckon, yeah, the jury's still out about that, but that's kind of a theory. They reckon the psychological, there's some theories around the psychologicalness

of it. A key reason we enjoy sad songs is because of the profoundly, that they profoundly move us. This experience is sometimes called karma muta, a Sanskrit term meaning moved by love. Feeling moved can involve chills, goosebumps, a flood of emotions, warmth in our chest and elation. You think about times where you've listened to songs and you get goosebumps or it makes you feel like a physical reaction. So that one comes down to people everywhere just want to feel something. Yeah. So if music makes you feel it, then... Yeah.

Okay, that makes a lot of sense. My favourite part is the end part where it says, a related suggestion Is that Adele's sad music Can be like a friend to you It can act as a social surrogate Sad music can be experienced As an imaginary friend

Who provides support And empathy after loss Yeah When you're sad You just want to know That someone else is as sad Or has once been as sad As you are right now

You don't feel You feel less alone when you're like, oh my God, I'm not the only person that has felt this crap. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So that's kind of nice. Just make sure eventually you go to some of the happier stuff. You know, don't stay in a... Put on Rolling in the Deep after, you know, some of the other ones.

Bree and Clint. I want to take you back to a little place that I call Google Down. Google, are you down, down, down, down, down, down, down? What the hell? I think Google's actually... This is the game where I pit the team against each other to cause fights amongst the group, and we figure out also in the process who is the fastest Googler.

That's right. Here to take us on today is Hamish. Hi, Hamish. G'day, Hamish. Hey, team. How we doing? Good, mate. How are you? Fantastic. That's good to hear. Have you heard the game before? No, but I've just been given a quick rundown, so I'm ready to rock and roll. Okay, perfect. I'll give you another quick rundown just so you're ready to go because I really want you to win this week.

So here's how it goes. I'm going to be asking you guys questions that I've typed into Google. I'm looking for the most common answer that comes up for that particular question on Google. The first person to yell it out correctly will get a point. If you yell out the wrong answer, you are void from that question, and the first of three correct wins. Got him.

Right. Sweet. So just yell out the answer when you think you know Hamish. Here we go. Question number one. What colour is the middle ring in the Olympic rings? Yellow.

Red. Clint and Ben are out. Blue. White. Everyone is out. White. It's still on. Black. Green. Red. Clint and Ben around. Blue. White. Everyone is out. White. It's still on. Black.

Green. Green. I'm voiding that question. You guys all suck. Really? Yes. Oh, it's black. It's black.

It's black. Why is it? Oh, black. Oh, right. Everyone said like a million wrong colours until they got to the right one. I thought the Olympic rings were rainbow coloured, but yeah, okay. Maybe next year. Here we go, question number two. No points for anyone.

How many episodes are there of Friends? 182. Clint's out. 236. Hamish was right behind you, but Anastasia picks up the point. I'm trying to not read them out like numbers, because I always lose. Nice work. Alright, one to Anastasia, but the point. I'm trying to not read them out like numbers because I always lose.

Nice work. All right, one to Anastasia, but you were hot on her tails, Hamish. I was close too. Yep, kind of. Question number three. How many letters in the word supercalifragilisticexpialidocious? How many letters are there? 34 letters.

Oh, I'd give it to Hamish because of the delay. I'm going to say Hamish too. I'm going to give it to Hamish. I don't even think you need to factor in the delay. I think that was straight Hamish. I think it was straight Hamish too. How do you actually Google that? Do you just... How many words in... Oh, anyways. That was confusing. You got the right answer. You got the right answer.

You know how to Google it. What did you Google? How many letters in Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. Well, there you go. That's the answer. It comes up. All right, Hamish. You are on the board, mate. One to you, one to Anastasia.

Here we go. Question number four. Where was mac and cheese invented? Boston. Clint is out. Italy. Anastasia's got it. That is correct.

It was invented in Italy. I did think that, but I'm not like Ben and Clint where I just guess it. That is the obvious answer. I thought it can't be Italy. No, well, sometimes it is, but. Sometimes the answers are obvious. Oh, the team is getting heated. All right, here we go.

Two to Anastasia, one to Hamish. Here we go, question. I reckon Ben's probably out. Well, you haven't got a point either. You also don't have a point. Clint and Ben are now playing for you, Hamish. Here we go, question number five. So you need to take it seriously.

How tall is Jojo Siwa in centimetres? Oh, 185. 175 metres. Clint's got it. Yes, Hamish, get in. You see it? In centimetres, 175. 185. 175 metres. Clint's got it. Yes, Hamish, get in. You said it. Get in.

In centimetres, 175. What are you doing, Anastasia? She's 1.75 metres. Yeah. What? What are you talking about? You're getting so competitive. All right, here we go.

We're all tied up. It's Anastasia versus the boys. Hamish, are you ready? I'm ready. All right, let's go. We got your back, Hamish. Let's go, mate. We've been on for you here. All right, question number six.

This is for the win. When did JoJo release Get Out? 24th February 2004. 2004. 30th of August 2004. Win, Ben. Win. I was only...

Doesn't matter. She was asking the year. I was asking the year, which I didn't really say that. You did. You're the judge, mate. That is such a hard one to call. I feel like Ben finished the year. Hamish, what do you think?

I reckon it was to the boys, for sure. Gotta go with Hamish. I mean, we've got to take Hamish's word for it. You've picked up the KFC chicken dollars. Nice work, Ham. Thank you, guys. Thank you. Team effort from the boys this afternoon. Let's be real.

Let's be real. Let's be real. You won. Let's be real. It took, what,'s be real, you won. Oh, well, I mean, let's be real. It took, what, three guys and they still couldn't take me down. Wait,

he said, he said 1.75. Brie and Clint. Family meeting time, everybody. Brie, Ben, Anastasia,

we're all here. Present. Every year, just a bit of background for everyone listening, we do a Secret Santa. We do a show secret Santa

just amongst the four of us and Ben organises it yeah look it's not a big secret Santa so you have to be kind of like really secretive or else people

will find out because it's so small yeah it is it's tricky so it's very important to keep it under wraps you know because if one person

figures out who one other person gets, then you know everything. It's all over. Especially in a group this small. It's all over. Really, all you need to do is keep it a secret from the person that you're giving the cup to.

Really, that's all that matters. In a group this small, it means as soon as you tell someone who you've got... Okay, what's happened? Yesterday as we were leaving, Ben waves the coffee cup and we pull these slips out. And we got who we got and I got who I got. And that's the point of Secret Santa.

You get who you get. Done. Go buy a gift. I want to swap the person that I got for a different person. Because you don't like that person. No, I love the person that I got. But the person that I want, I've already bought their Secret Santa gift. Wait, why would you go and buy it

before you knew who you had? Because I saw the gift come up a couple of weeks ago and I saw this thing and I said, this is the perfect gift for this person. I'll just buy it and one of my friends will swap with me when it comes around to it for Secret

Santa so I can make sure that this person gets the good gift. That's rookie. That's a rookie mistake. It's like buying a house before you win Lotto. Yeah. No, it's not. That's pretty much exactly the same.

That's exactly the same situation. I found the perfect gift. We're friends, but it doesn't mean I'm going to give away my Secret Santa. Yeah. I messaged the people involved yesterday because I'm not messaging the person who I want to get. Oh, well, now we know who the person you want to get is. Only because you wouldn't swap with me.

Only because you wouldn't swap with me. That's because if you messaged us asking for the person that you wanted, what if you had one of us? Exactly. So then what? So say, let's, for example, say Anastasia has the person you want. You message Anastasia and you're like, do you have this person? She's like, yes.

And you go, okay, sweet. Can you swap with me? And then you give her her. Well, then she would have to swap with you. See? I mean, everyone knows. Disaster. You don't get to choose your secret Santa.

Yes, Ben. Thank you. Yes, Ben. I believe that secret Santa, you should be able to swap people. I think you should be able to make it There's a lot of I's in that sentence. I feel like that's quite ruthless, being that you've put

in so much time and effort to the person you want to swap for, but what about the person that you got? Does that mean you don't want to buy them a gift? Brie, what if we find out it was one of us? Which means he doesn't like us. Yeah. That's how I feel. It means he didn't want to buy them a gift. Brie, what if we find out it was what? Well, it was one of us. Which means he doesn't like us. Yeah. That's how I feel.

It means he didn't want to buy one of us a gift. No, you're flipping it around the wrong way. I literally have bought the perfect gift for the person that I want. Actually, I've got an idea. Why don't you just give your secret Santa a gift? Yes. And that person, if you love them so much that you bought a gift early. That's what Christmas is about.

But then there's only one person on the team that I haven't bought a gift for then. Buy them a gift too. Obviously you have to buy them a gift as well. You too. Honestly you too. Do you smell that? Double Christmas gifts. Victory. Yeah. You two are like bargaining with

I don't know. You're trying to bargain with Secret Santa. We don't even know who Secret Santa is. This is what it comes down to. You're taking Secret Santa way too seriously. Well, I mean, it is in the name. It's in the title. We don't have Adult Santa. It's the only Santa we've got.

It's not Swap Santa. If it was Swap Santa. Not Happy Go Lucky Santa. It's not loosely a Secret Santa. I'm just looking on the text machine. A few people, someone said, no way, you can't swap, end of story. Someone else said, Clint, you were wrong. Secret Santa, you don't swap.

Look, okay, I want to put it out wider than that and I want to take the emotion out of it. I'm just going to ask the question, okay? And then we're going to open the phones up. Very simple question because everybody's about to do Secret Santa at the moment. Everybody, every workplace in the country is about to do a Secret Santa and families and

everybody. You know what? There's a million times that I wanted to swap my Secret Santa because the person I got not necessarily the easiest person to buy for or for whatever reason but, you know, the spirit of Secret Santa, I stuck it out, and I got them a gift

because that's what it's about. Yeah, what a hero. Okay. Here's the question, New Zealand. 0800 dials at M. Can you swap the people that you get in Secret Santa? Okay? I mean, it is in the title, Secret. Can you swap? Okay, 0800 dials

at M. I mean, don't get too crazy about it. Text us on 9696. You probably don't want to read the text machine. It's very one-sided. Bree and Clint. I have a very simple question. Can you swap the people that you get given for Secret Santa? I want to do it because I have purchased the perfect gift for somebody,

but I didn't get that person. And you don't like the person that you got. No, I don't. Whoever Clint got, I feel real bad for. And we're going to find out because eventually it's going to come out. I'm starting to not like the person that I got because there's only two people here who are stopping me getting what I want. And it's one of you two. Oh, no, you're not getting what you want.

Look out. Can you swap? What are the rules when it comes to Secret Santa? I think you guys are taking it too literally. So let's go to the people. April's here. Hi, April. April.

Hey. What do you think? Can you swap people in Secret Santa? No, you are never allowed to swap. Like, what's the point in the Secret Sound? Oh, Secret Santa. I mean, it's the whole point of the game, really. Yeah, it ruins the whole game.

You can never swap. But April, I've already bought the gift. I jumped the gun. Yes, I admit I jumped the gun and I've already bought the gift. So why can't I just have a little bit of help to get this person this great gift that I've got them? Well, like Bree said, you buy a house before you win the lotto. Not a great idea. And I mean, April, he can always, you know,

just do a really nice thing and give the gift anyway. It doesn't need to be part of Secret Santa. At this stage, it's becoming a gift for me. Sharing the love. Share the love. Yeah, share the love. Share the love. Thanks, April.

Thank you. Let's talk to Patrick. Hi, Patrick. Hi, Pat. Hey, how you going? What side are you on, Pat? Can you change Secret Santa people or not?

The only time ever that you can change is if there's like a conflict of interest like you get your partner or something but then the Secret Santa should have been set up in such a way that like that never happens, you know? So you're talking family situations, I get what you're saying. Yeah, yeah. I think what

Clint should have done, if he were to be sneaky, is offered to set up the secret stand using like a website or something and then set it up in such a way that only he can get that person. Oh my God, that is so smart. That is so smart. I should have rigged it in my own favour.

Yeah. You know why I didn't think about that? The reason I didn't think about that is I just assumed that someone would go, yeah, all good, yeah, not a big deal, I'll swap with you. You should never assume. Because it's not a big deal. It's not a big deal. Just someone please just swap with me.

What did I say about assume? Yeah, you make an ass out of you and I. I know, Clint, you should have just done it, but, like, I don't know, maybe you're just, like, at an admin task and someone else can do it, no? No, okay, all right. Now you're casting but, like, I don't know, maybe you're just, like, it's an admin task and someone else can do it. No? No? Okay, all right. Now you're casting aspersions, Patrick.

Thank you very much. Let's go to Tanya. Hi, Tanya. Hi, Tanya. Hi, how are you? Oh, good, thanks, Tanya. What do you think? Should Clint be able to swap, yes or no?

Absolutely not. But, but we have a community secret centre. Yes. And so we have a community dinner where we all have a potluck. Yeah. And at that dinner, once everybody's opened their presents, as a compromise Santa, only because you're throwing your toys out of the cop clump, you have one minute to swap one gift. You're only allowed to swap once, you're not allowed to re-swap back or whatever. Yeah. One minute to swap.

So are you suggesting that I should give the gift that I've bought for one person, I should give it to the person that I actually got, and then it's their problem to swap the gift at the table? No, because if that person really likes that gift, they will know it was for them, and they will know that they really like it. If it's the best gift, that's so true, Tanya, if it's the best gift ever for this particular person, or you should find out who got that person for Secret Santa, give them the gift

so they can give it to them. Oh, now I have to do... And then they can pay you for it. The only reason you say that is because you have got the person that I want. How do you know? Because. How do you know? I. How do you know? I know you do. Anonymous is here.

Hi Anonymous. Hi Anonymous. Hi guys. Absolute whitewash. It's Celia here. Hi Celia. Oh hello. Hi Celia. Celia organises the wider ZM Secret Santa. Hi, how are you going? Great, thank you. I've been having a listen and I've got a few thoughts here Clint.

You've gone completely against the rules. You can't buy a present before you know who you're going to get for starters. It just shows favouritism. Yes, exactly. Also, when you get your person, like, you've got to keep that to yourself. You're not meant to tell anyone else in the team. Yeah, I haven't told anyone, really. I've just asked for what I want.

No, you told both of us. Yeah, because I knew told anyone, really. I've just asked for what I want. No, you told both of us. Yeah, because I knew that neither of you... Oh, my God. Celia, I was hedging my bets. This is a small secret centre of four people. I know you're in charge of the bigger ZM secret centre, and I promise I won't mess with that one. But, look, I've been outvoted anyway.

I've been outvoted anyway. You never know. He could go rogue. He could be messaging people behind the scenes. You just don't know. I've got my eyes on you, Clint. Watch out. By the way, Celia, do you want to swap with me for ZM Secrets?

There you go. The ruling is final. Not a single person agreed that we could swap. I'm so excited for one person in our team. They get two presents instead of one. Bree and Clint. Ah. It's my birthday. It's my birthday. One person in our team, they get two presents instead of one. Bree and Clint. No.

Hey. It's my birthday. It's my birthday. Bree and Clint's Birthday Banger. All right, let's get you home for a Wednesday with this birthday banger. Three people's birthdays. What was the number one song on their 16th? And we'll play the best one out of the three.

Kelly's here. Hi, Kelly. G'day, Kelly. Hi. I heard it's your birthday today. It is. Oh, how fun. Have you had a nice day?

Oh, you know, same old work. Oh, what do you do for work? I'm an accountant. Oh, right. Oh, yeah. Okay. Do you get a half day or something good, or do they put a packet of M&Ms on your keyboard? What?

No, no, full day. Just on my way home now. She gets a morning tea that goes for 15 minutes and no longer and then everyone back to work. Yeah, that's about right. No one's watching the clock like an accountant. Okay, Kelly, how old are you turning today? 33.

All right, Kelly, that means you were born in 1988 and we're going to get you your birthday banger for your birthday. You were 16 in 2004 and get you your birthday banger for your birthday. You were 16 in 2004. And here's your birthday banger. All right, now lose it. Just lose it. Go crazy. Oh, baby.

No, no. Good. Okay, Kelly, wait there. We'll do a birthday banger for Grace. Hi, Grace. Hi, Grace. Hi. I heard it's your birthday tomorrow.

I've got this list here, which I found quite interesting. It spells out what people are most likely to be psychopaths based on the type of car they drive. I love these lists because I always find they're quite accurate. Well, also, most people have a car, so you can put yourself right in there. Everyone is kind of like, where do I sit in this car? How much of a psycho am I? The research asked 2,000 drivers of all kinds of cars to complete a survey.

It's called the Psychopath Test. This test actually exists, by the way. You and I should take the test. No, I'm scared to take it. It's a 12-question survey. Did you hear my laugh after I just answered that question? Yeah, I wasn't going to mention it. It's a 12-question survey, and it tells you where you sit on the psychopathy scale.

Oh, gotcha. How likely you are to exhibit abnormal or antisocial behavior. Right, okay. The score is out of 36. The higher your score, the more of a psycho you are. Right. The lower the score, the less likely you are. Yeah.

There are 10 cars here, and we'll go from least psycho to most psycho. Number 10, first of all, me. Congratulations. Hyundai drivers got a 5.3. You are not a Hyundai driver. Excuse me. My wife's car is a Hyundai. I've seen the car.

And I drive it. You drive. You rarely drive that car. I always see you speeding off down the motorway in your Audi. I hate driving that car. It's gutless. Hyundai drivers, least psycho. Number nine, Volkswagen drivers.

Oh, yeah. Yeah, 5.4. The Germans may sound angry, but the ones who drive Volkswagens? Not so much. Not so much. Number eight, Citroen. Who the hell has a Citroen? Move on.

Number seven. You know, there's rally car drivers. No, there's no Citroen. Who the hell has a Citroen? Move on. Number seven. You know, there's rally car drivers. No, there's no Citroen driver. It's very rare you see a Citroen driver. Number seven, Mercedes-Benz drivers. All right. Number seven. Okay, that's not too bad.

Number six, Ford drivers. Oh, yeah. They got a 6.1 on the psycho scale out of 36. That's pretty low. Pretty good. Let's get into the top five Psychos. Oh, this has been me my whole life, mate. I'm number five on the scale.

I'm not Hyundai. I'm number five. What's five? Honda drivers. You are not a Honda driver. I just had a Honda. The last car I had was a Honda. Like three years ago.

Like a long time ago. And the car before that was a Honda. I'm a Honda man. No, you're not. Number four. Let ago. And the car before that was a Honda. I'm a Honda man. No, you're not. Number four. Let's get to the good stuff. Where's the Audi drivers, which is you? Number four is Mazda drivers. Friggin' psychos.

That's a Mazda driver who hit you the other day. Yep. I bloody agree with that. My partner, also a Mazda driver. Yep, psychos. Number three on the psycho scale, Fiat drivers. Who's driving a Fiat? A psycho. If you're a psycho enough to buy a Fiat, you're a psycho.

I can't remember the last time I saw a Fiat car on the road. They got a seven on the psycho scale. Look, now it jumps a little bit when we get into the top two. Yeah, so that's seven. So out of 36, what are the top two? So number two with a score of 11.7 is Audi drivers. Second. Interesting.

But I mean. So you, out of all of the car drivers, have rated second. Yeah, but. For the most psycho. But it's 11 out of 36. Like it's 11 out of 36. And at least, at least they're God damn BMW drivers Who are the most psycho Let's focus on them

Whereabouts are Mitsubishi drivers? Not in the top 10 You're sweet I knew I was fine Either that or not worth surveying Look have you ever thought to yourself, I wonder if I've got a sexy eye colour? I've wondered to myself what colour are my eyes.

I feel like the only eye colours you notice are the really striking ones. Like you and me in the bluey green and the greeny brown area. They're just eyes, right? I feel like the only eye colours you notice are the really striking ones. Like you and me and the bluey green and the greeny brown area, they're just eyes, right? No, I disagree. Unless someone has like baby blues. I think I really notice. I think you know what the two differences are for me is like people with brown eyes because I think they look quite different

because it's like dark features, brown eyes, and then people with light colour eyes like green or blue. Right. But there's so many different colours that you don't even think about like hazel i think is very striking yeah but anyway do you want to hear what um you know what the males are most attracted to yeah okay yeah what the females are most attracted to based on this silly little study that they've done from dating apps it's just a bit of fun um so this is where they asked i think they collated heaps of data from dating apps it's just a bit of fun um so this is where they asked i think they collated heaps of data from dating apps and they asked people you know what's what eye color are you most attracted to you could just do it off swipes you go people well yeah i guess you could go how

Anyway, let's go for the lads first. What do you think men are most attracted to? What eye colour in a partner are men most attracted to? Brown. I think men like – Brown at the top? Ladies with brown eyes, yeah.

Okay. Coming in at number one for the most attractive eye colour is blue. See, I thought it would be blue, but I was like, nah, cliche. Too obvious. Too obvious. It goes blue, brown, green, hazel, black, purple. Purple? Which I don't know if I've ever seen a person with purple eyes.
