Oh, have the time of my life. Have yourself a merry little podcast.
Have I felt this way before? No.
Hi everybody, welcome to the Brian Clint Podcast.
And how's your day?
Um, can you put your new phone down please?
Sorry.
It's reflecting off your face too much.
Yeah.
Oh, feels nice though. It's so obviously a new phone down, please? Sorry. It's reflecting off your face too much. Oh, it feels nice, though.
It's so obviously a new phone.
Why?
Because your case is clean.
Yeah, what is with, like, clear...
Clear case.
Clear case, yeah.
Look at my...
Mine looked like yours when I got it 12 months ago.
That's my clear case now.
How gross is it?
Why do they all go yellow?
It's poo brown.
Well, because they go everywhere with you.
They go...
No, but...
They go everywhere.
Do you reckon there's poo particles on your phone?
I don't want to know.
I reckon they're on everything.
Because sometimes I hold my phone in my mouth.
Look at Anastasia.
She knows that you're on your phone.
That's disgusting.
Have we asked Anastasia if she takes her phone to the toilet?
She does.
Everyone does.
No, Ben doesn't.
I don't.
You don't.
No, that's...
What do you do?
Yeah, you get so bored. Go to the toilet
and then leave.
How long do you take for number twos
though? Like, what's your
average? He doesn't know. He doesn't take a
stopwatch in. Yeah, I don't.
A few minutes? Two minutes? I don't know.
So you're not a long poo-er.
Because in our flat, we have long poo-ers. I'm a short poo-er. No, I don't know. Oh, so you're not a long poo-er. No. Because in our flat, we have long poo-ers.
I'm a short poo-er.
Yeah, right.
No, I'm uncomfortable now.
No, I was all right with this.
And, Estasia, are you a long or a short poo-er?
You just...
No.
No.
No, and by that, some people...
I don't understand how you mean long.
Because some people like to sit and literally not really do much.
Marinate.
But they sit and... And wait. And relax on the toilet for like 20 minutes.
No, 20 minutes.
Eddie in our flat, we call him poo boy because he sits on there for like,
I'm not joking, like probably 40 minutes.
He's got his own toilet though.
No, he shares with our other flatmate, Ben.
Oh, yeah, but it doesn't affect you is what I know.
No, no.
Oh, I don't care.
Like each to their own.
I'm just saying he's a longpua. You've got quite
a luxurious bathroom though.
Who? You at your house. That one that
is his. It's very spacious. That bathroom's
really nice. Yeah. We've got
a tiny ensuite that now has
Whitney's dog cage in there.
It's quite cramped actually.
It's very cramped. I don't feel relaxed. Why have you been
in Bree's private bathroom Anastasia? Oh, we hang out all the time. Yeah, we hung out last actually. It's very cramped. I don't feel relaxed. Why have you been in Bree's private bathroom,
Anastasia?
Oh, we hang out all the time.
Yeah, we hung out last week.
Well, you can use
the guest bathroom.
But, you know,
Bree and I are just
that much closer.
It's kind of like
Mikasa's...
Wait.
Mikasa is Tsukasa.
Tsukasa.
Yeah, that's it.
I was like,
is it Tsukasa?
Mi shita is your shita.
No, but except you're
claiming hers is yours,
so you need to say it's like Tsukasa is it Zoukassa? Me shitter is your shitter. No, but except you're claiming hers is yours.
So you need to say, it's like Zoukassa is me shitter.
No, I say to her, me shitter, your shitter.
All right, that's enough.
That's enough.
Exact words.
I need help with something, by the way.
Yeah.
What?
Constipation.
What do I want for my birthday?
I know this is a dumb, I know this is a first world problem.
That is a first world problem.
Massive first world problem. But I first world problem Do you get yourself something?
No, but when you've been in a relationship for a while
I bought myself something
Way to rub it in Clint
My wife told me exactly what she wanted for her birthday
And I bought it
What'd she want?
I like to think it's because I listen
She wanted this dress thing What brand it to you uh neon gypsy oh yeah i remember that it was beautiful
um and so what do you want it big ups me for remembering that by the way yeah it was really
good man um i don't know what i want so this is the problem so she's gone to me in a moment of
frustration and my birthday is coming up she turned to me on the weekend and she must have
been trying to figure it out for a bit because she turned to me quite frustrated and
she goes and we hadn't even been talking about it she goes can you just tell me what you want
for your birthday and i'll buy it so you got a new you got a huge tv do you need any tech stuff
you got uh that's always that you got a new watch you got a new phone two days ago.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
That's not the position that I'm coming from.
You bought yourself an Audi.
No.
A brand new Audi.
No, no, no, no, no.
That's not what I mean.
I've never had a new car.
Who's getting a car for their birthday?
It would be nice.
We don't even have a nice TV.
My sister got a car for her Christmas present from her husband.
Well, I don't want that, okay, because I've got a car.
So you got an Audi.
Do you want a bus card?
No, I mean, what's fun at the moment?
How about some new fucking headphones? Because the ones
you've got now are shit.
No, these are great headphones. These are Calvin Harris headphones.
Why do they always stuff up
then? Because they need repairing.
Yeah, so how about just get a new pair?
No, that's wasteful. How old are they?
Ben, when did we start working together at another place?
Maybe they're five years old?
Four years, five years.
Anyway, by the point,
I don't want my wife to buy me headphones for my birthday.
Why?
Because I've got the parts to fix them.
I'll fix them eventually.
Well, I don't know.
No, and this wasn't meant to be that laborious.
What's something fun at the moment
Well is there anything that any of us
A jet ski
That we could get on his behalf
I really want a hoverboard
I know I'm like five years too late
But I still really want one
Do you mean the ones with wheels
A hoverboard could be fun
Yeah they're called a hoverboard
I've never been on one of those
The ones with wheels yeah
I thought you meant the ones that don't exist
Now I really want that
But you can buy those though
They don't hover obviously
Ben, what do I want for my birthday?
Do you want some kind of
Experience?
That's definitely an experience
That's something that you do want
And she could provide
No, no, no. I feel bad now.
No, just...
No, it's not your problem.
You feel bad that he...
It's not your problem, okay?
It's not your problem.
You feel bad that he has everything he wants,
so he's finding it hard to ask for something.
Are there any tick stuff?
Are there any clothings?
Are there any DIY things?
Do you need any shovels or anything?
Or, like, what about new sheets?
Oh, I like the way you're going with this.
Like, I don't know.
Yeah.
What about a wind blower?
What about some male skincare?
What about some beard shampoo?
Beard shampoo?
Sorry, I actually...
A really nice beard kit.
I smashed my flatmate's bottle of that in the shower over the holidays.
Wait, why were you using his beard oil?
I was going to say, what were you doing in the shower
that made you smash it no no i just fell down you fell down when you were doing what you slipped

They've brought out 660 Scratchies.
Man, those guys are killing the game.
Can you win $660,000?
Surely.
I think you can win some $6,000.
I'll try and buy one on the app now.
See what you've done, Anastasia.
Sorry.
Oh, we're promoting gambling.
You can win $60,000.

Give it to charity
Instant Kiwi

Defeat the whole purpose
Of a scratchy
Do you like animals

With a coin
Look I'm trying to get you
Into gambling here
Stop trying to get me
Into gambling
Okay there's one called
Little lady bingo
I gamble in my own way
Like making stupid purchases
Hoping that I'll get my money back one day.
Here it is.
I found it.
The scratchy of the summer, 660.
Oh, fucking missed opportunity here.
Oh, no.
How much?
60,000.
Is it only 60?
Not only that.
If it was six prizes of $60,000.
Then you could say six times 60.
It's four. Oh, four 60. What Then you could say six times 60. It's four.
Oh, what are they up to?
$460,000. That's annoying.
They've really missed the boat there.
Wait, so when they make those,
does that mean they print a certain amount and there's literally 60?
Can you just imagine
the meeting that went down for that?
Where they go, what?
At least we have two more.
I think we should make it $660,000. What does everyone
think? And then someone goes,
well, we don't have that much, but we could make it
$60,000. That would be a lot for a scratchy.
Could we do six of those? Yeah, could we
do six of those? That might
look pretty good. Six times 60.
That'd look, you know, $660,000.
No, but we can do four.
Yeah, that's a lot of back and forth
Just sell some more scratchies
Anyway, anyway, anyway
Is it for a good cause?
We're raising money for some music foundation or something
That's good
You know
Yeah, no, we're not begging the idea
No
Well, I'm begging gambling, aren't I?
No, I just think it's funny
The meetings where I'm sure more than one person
Ripped their hair out over that.
Yeah, yeah.
Man, those guys are killing it.
Yeah, don't they?
They'll do.
Should that do?
Well, I think we know what we're getting you now.
Well, that's the cue of the awkward outro, so that means it's done.
Are you going to give me a six?
All right, well, chill out and enjoy what you're about to enjoy.
See ya.
Hey, Google, what's the time?
It's 3 p.m.
Give or take a minute.
Alexa, play ZM on iHeartRadio.
Playing ZM on iHeartRadio.
Hey, Siri, when are Bree and Clint on?
Bree and Clint are on air in five, four, three, two, one.
We're back and we've scanned the QR codes.
Yeah, you can scan in to be listening to our show.
Oh, yeah.

The Bree and Clint show on ZM.
Should have come up.
That is accepted.
Cool, you're safe.
Now everyone knows what you've been listening to.
Done.

The risk of community transmission is too high.
This afternoon, everybody, we've got free cash to give away again.
Thanks to KFC and the Big Kahuna Burger.
All you've got to do is be listening about quarter to six
and we'll play an activator for that game.
You want to call up and play also we have a host of celebrity treasure island and new zealand survivor
on the show matt chisholm um after he lost his laptop off the roof of his car over the weekend
which had 72 000 words written on it for his book that would devastate you you. At the same time, it would be so annoying
the number of people afterwards who would say to you, well, why
wasn't it backed up to the cloud, bro? Yeah, why didn't you back it up?
How come you weren't using Google Docs, bro?
Google Docs you don't even need to save. Look, I'm gonna
put my hand up and say, I have not backed
up for a while.
And I also haven't used my computer
system thing as well.
To start
the show, though, we've got $50 cash to give away
with our game, Tradie vs. Lady.
Free and Cleanse.
Tradie vs. Lady.

We need you to call right now.

You'll take on a lady.
And we'll see who's best at their general knowledge.

Go head-to-head in a quiz of everyday questions
that is happening in the world.
Playing from Christchurch, she's 22,
and she's studying four different things in the next eight months.
Please welcome Emily.
Hello, Emily.
Hi, how are you?
Why are you studying so much?
Because COVID.
Oh, right, right, right, right, right.
The government will pay you to study.
Yeah, good.
Maybe I'll go back and study.
All right, playing for the tradies.
He's 16 and he's from Hamilton.
Welcome to the show, Ezra.
G'day, Ezra.
G'day, Ezra.
Hello.
You know your general knowledge, mate?
Yep.
What trade are you doing at 16 years old?
I just have on my cousin.
Yeah, nice.
Oh, nice.
Sweet, here we go.
Your buzzer is tradie Ezra and Lady Emily.
Good luck, guys.
All right.
First of three will win the 50 bucks.
Here comes question number one.
Anne Hathaway was in the news last week after she revealed on the Tonight Show that she
never wanted to be known by her full name.
Lady.
Emily, you've buzzed in real quick.
You don't even know what the question is yet.
Cannot remember what she wants to be called.
She wanted to go like Annie or something.
I'm going to buzz you out there because that's not even the question.
Azra, I think you probably want to hear the rest of the question.
I'll keep reading.
Known by her full first name and all her close family friends
actually call her Annie.
Her first major breakout role was on the film The What Diaries.
The What Diaries.
The What Diaries, Ezra?
You need to buzz in with tradie.
The Princess Diaries?
Yeah, we'll give it to you.
But please use your buzzer going forward.
Remember to buzz in with tradie, poor lady.
Okay, one to the tradies.
Question number two.
New Zealand is a team of five million strong.
How many millions live in Australia?
Tradies.
Azra?
Probably like 10 million.
Emily, do you want to crack?
Yep.
I don't know, 20 million.
You're a lot closer, but it's actually $25 million.
All right, question number three.
No one gets that point.
Joe Biden has removed a button from the Oval Office.
Oh, tradie, tradie.
Yes, Azra.
Was it a Coke?
Yeah, we'll give you that.
It was a Diet Coke button, yeah.
Yeah, where Donald Trump would press the button every time he wanted a Diet Coke.
That's two to the tradies, one to the ladies.
Question number four.
In the Back to the Future movie franchise,
what was the name of the Doc's dog?
Tradie.
Azra for the win.
Rocket.
Good guess, but no, it wasn't Rocket.
Emily, do you know?
I have no idea. It was Einstein. no, it wasn't Rocket. Emily, do you know? I have no idea.
It was Einstein.
Okay, no point there.
No points for anyone.
Still two to the tradies, one to the ladies.
Question number five.
A new case of COVID-19 in Northland means it's more important than ever
to scan the QR codes.
What does QR stand for?
Tradie.
Ezra.
You're just buzzing in without knowing the answer, aren't you, Ezra? No, that's all right.
I like that game play, Ezra.
Give it a crack.
I know, I know, I know.
Go on then.
Three, two, one.
Emily, you want to go?
I have no idea.
It's actually multi-choice, so we're going to give you guys the multi-choice options
and then you can buzz in again.
All right.
Okay.
Is it A, quick response code,
B, quality rooster code,
or C, quizly-rizly code?
Lady.
Lady.
Ezra.
Number one.
Number one, quick response.
Ezra, you've picked up the win for the tradies and that 50 bucks.
Nice work.
Thank you.
Sweet.
That was a close one.
Well, it's weirdly close, actually.
I would have thought it was quality rooster code.
My money was on Quizzly Rizzly, to be honest.
Brie, you're a very punctual person.
I know that about you.
I hate to be late.
You hate to be late?
You hate when other people are late?
Gives me anxiety.
And I do think it's rude
if other people are late.
You and I have that in common.
That's why I know
the story that I'm about to tell you
from producer Anastasia
is going to irritate
the hell out of you.
Oh, no.
Producer Anastasia,
where were you going
on the weekend?
We went to the races.
You went to the races.
The Crack-A-Million.
Which I thought was the Crack-a-Million.
Like they were going to crack a million dollars.
Oh, what a cracker.
It was actually a place called Caracca.
It's actually the Caracamillion.
I love that place.
Yeah, the races.
So you go to the races.
Great day out.
Very fancy out there.
Get all dressed up with the girls.
What time did you guys arrive at the races?
8.30? PM? Mm-hmm. What time did you guys arrive at the races? 8.30? PM? What time was
the last race? 7.45? What are you up to? Anastasia and her mates arrived at the races after the
races finished. Why'd you even bother? Good after party. Was it at the racetrack
though? Yeah, it was on the race
course. For you it wasn't an after party though,
it's just a party. Oh yeah.
It wasn't after anything. You had to go to the other event
to go to the after party. That was the party, yes.
Can I ask, how long had you guys been planning to go to the races?
Was it a spur of the moment thing?
This was a day off thing. Decided on the day off.
My flatmate was a two hour drive away
when she called me we're going.
Yeah.
But I got a message
from you at like
11 o'clock in the morning
saying I'm going
to the races.
Yeah that was
we were intending
for 3pm.
Yeah.
But that you know
sometimes
What time did you
start getting ready?
Or maybe around 6?
You started getting
ready for the races
at 6 and they
finished at 7.45.
We were aiming for that last race.
We were going to go hard for that last race.
Get your money's worth.
Put it all on that last race.
Put it all on that last race.
You know, once you, yeah,
I don't know.
We had a good time when we got there.
You had a good time?
A lot of men on the way in were like,
you ladies know the races are over.
And we're like, oh, really?
The good bit about arriving at the races that late is
you would by far be the most put together looking people
still at the races.
Oh, I disagree with that.
Wow.
Because then you've pre-drunk for way more hours at home.
Yeah, that was probably the downfall.
So it could work or not work in your favour.
All right.
Well, Anastasia, you've done it. Arriving at the
races after they finish. What a hero.
Yay or nay?
10 out of 10 we'll be doing it.
So to speak, yay or nay
so to speak. I'm going to say nay.
We want to ask
you guys this afternoon on 0800
dials at M, what did you miss?
Like what were you supposed to be at
and you were so late that you may as well not have bothered showing up?
Might have been your fault.
You might have done an Anastasia or it might not have been your fault at all.
Maybe you missed out on something really important
because of circumstances that were out of your own control
or maybe you're just a completely disorganised hot mess.
We don't know.
Yeah, I'm trying to think of if I've ever done that,
but I don't think I have.
Like did you miss a friend's wedding?
Did you miss...
That's a bad one to miss.
Did you miss the birth of your own child?
What was it?
That one is understandable,
and I feel like there would be people who have missed that
because you just...
I mean, you can't plan for that.
You can't put it in the diary unless...
What, you understand them?
I mean, unless you're having a caesarean, but, you know.
0800 dials it in or text us to 9696.
We want to know this afternoon, what did you miss?
Bree and Clint.
Our producer, Anastasia, went to the races on the weekend.
Well, no, technically she didn't go to the races.
She went to the race course.
She went to the after party of the races.
Last race was at 7.45 and she arrived at 8.30.
What a legend.
Yep.
So we want to know this afternoon, what did you miss?
What were you late for?
What did you basically miss?
You might have missed it on purpose.
Yeah, and said there was traffic.
I've definitely done that before.
Sorry, guys.
My alarm didn't go off.
I couldn't believe it.
My plane was late.
Stacey, hi.
Welcome to the show. Stacey, are you there? off. I couldn't believe it. My plane was late. Stacey, hi, welcome to the show.
Stacey, are you there?
Yes, I'm here.
Hello, what did you miss?
I missed my sister's wedding.
What?
How did you manage that, Stacey?
I was really upset.
It was actually my husband's fault.
He decided to move his mum the morning of the wedding.
Wait, oh, move her house.
I was thinking something else.
Not physically pick up his mum and put her somewhere else.
I was thinking that.
No.
Right.
So he moves your mum's house on the morning of the wedding.
And what happens?
Snowball effect?
And then he just took too long.
And I kept saying to him, don't do a second run.
And he said, no, no, no, it'll be fine.
And it wasn't.
And we literally pulled up to the church as they were leaving the church
and having photos taken outside
and my dad was fuming.
That's unforgivable, Stacey.
Yeah, that's horrible.
You should have went without him.
Did you think about going without him?
I did, but I had two young children and no car.
Oh.
So I was stuck.
Now this is a question for any man who's been deep,
deep in the dog box like this.
That sounds like something big Steve would do.
My dad.
Did you guys stay together?
Did you manage to get past it?
We have, but you're talking 20 years on, and I still get angry and still bring it up.
Yeah, because it's a big moment.
It sounds like you were close with your sister, and you wouldn't be able to get that back.
20 years in the dog box.
I hope he's got a nice blanket in there.
Nick, you also missed a wedding.
Yeah, yeah, my best mate's wedding,
not last year but the year before.
Your best mate?
Yeah, one of my best mates.
We had a wedding in Hamilton
and there was eight of us staying at one place.
Yeah.
And one of the guys decided to go into town
to get some shorts or some pants for the wedding.
Found out they didn't fit.
You were getting shorts for a wedding?
Oh, pants, pants.
Oh, right.
He was getting some pants.
So he went to get the pants, found out they didn't fit.
We were sitting in the car waiting for him.
He runs back out, runs back in, and we're thinking, oh, bugger, we don't know what the time is.
Get back to our place, have a shower.
We head out to the wedding venue venue and they'd already walked out.
This just sounds like poor time management, Nick.
It's very bad, yeah.
Did no one read the invite?
That's what the invite's for.
Eight guys not showing up to the wedding.
So not just you, eight people weren't there for the ceremony.
Yeah, only one of our mates was there
and he decided to drive by himself for that reason the day before.
Hey, Nick, tell us the truth.
Is that the actual story,
or did you guys just get a little bit too steamed the night before?
No, no, no, no.
It's legit the truth,
and the guy that did it actually lives there in Hamilton,
so I haven't made it worse.
All right.
Jeez.
I love the text on the text machine where someone said,
I missed my own surprise birthday party.
I was at my mate's party instead.
Surprise parties are not always a good idea.
Yeah, right.
Yeah.
Surprise!
Surprise, you're not there.
Bree and Clint.
Time for the latest. From iHeartRadio, this is the latest.
Dean, this is The Latest.
Dean, this is the biggest news in entertainment today.
Jojo Siwa has come out.
She has.
If you've been living under a rock and you don't know who that is,
she is one of the most popular children's entertainers in the world.
She was on Dance Moms.
She's the blonde girl who wears the big ribbons in her hair,
the bows, you know who I'm talking about now.
Ponytail to the side. She came out over the weekend.
Isn't she?
Yep, yep, Ponytails of the side.
Very iconic look.
You know she sold 80 million of those bows.
Anyway, back to the story.
Oh, my God.
She has come out.
Now, why is this such a big deal?
Well, because her audience are young children and mums,
and, you know, it's the first kind of like children's entertainer
of this age and this era to come out like this. It's so, it's the first kind of like children's entertainer of this age in this era to
come out like this it's so it's being so well received i cannot even believe it it's actually
very emotional to watch how it played out basically she went on instagram and posted a photo of her
wearing a t-shirt that said best gay cousin and then the caption said my cousin gave me the coolest
shirt ever and everyone was like oh my god did she just come out and then
she did this 16 minute emotional video it was a live actually she posted onto her instagram go
and check it out talking about how important it is for kids to just be themselves and it's okay to be
whatever you want and be into whatever you want and there's no such thing as normal and everyone
can just live their best life it's such a message. And for all of her young youth followers, this is just like,
this is the coolest thing that's ever happened.
This is super cool and it's a really big deal.
I can't even imagine.
She's only 17 years old, this girl.
And imagine the pressure and the courage it would have taken
to actually come out when you're 17 to the world,
when you're so well-known,
you have such massive things on your shoulders like brand deals and all that kind of stuff.
And it sends a really amazing message, which I think will help a lot
of young kids that look up to her.
It's about representation, right?
Absolutely.
Kids can go, oh, my God, I identify with that person.
Yeah, I'm not different.
Oh, my God.
I'm normal.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Amazing.
Okay, that's a beautiful story.
Thank you, Dean.
That's our Hollywood correspondent
live out of Los Angeles,
Dean McCarthy.
Thanks to Shadow in the Cloud.

Brianne Clint.
Get ready, New Zealand,
because we're in line
for a heat blast.
Is this what, like,
tell me what a heat blast is.
Is that a step up from a heat wave?
I think so, yeah, yeah.
A heat blast is incoming early this week from Australia.
Of course it is.
We're getting an Australian heat blast.
Well, it's about time.
I've been wondering where summer has gone.
It could force temperatures here in New Zealand into the mid
30s.
Heat blast.
Whoa! Particularly
in the east of
both islands.
For now that includes Canterbury,
Marlborough, Hawke's Bay,
Gisborne and Bay of Plenty.
Look out.
The heat blast is coming.
You look down your Australian nose at our heat blast,
but mid-30s is difficult.
That sounds delightful to me.
No, no, it's uncomfortable.
No, it sounds lovely.
When you get in your car, you've got to wind down the windows
before you close the doors.
Oh, no.
You can only be outside for like a couple of hours at a time.
I'm telling you now, here in New Zealand, you guys have the perfect heat.
Yeah, I know.
You guys have a lovely...
What we like, nice late 20s.
Lovely summers.
It's a nice crispy 27.
It's like when you walk on the beach in a New Zealand summer.
It doesn't burn the bottom of your feet.
No, I know.
Which is lovely.
That's what we like.
Unless you go to Piha or Black Sand Beach
and then ow, ow, ow, ow, ow, ow.
I love about New Zealand,
when you get into your car,
you don't get a third degree branding
from the seatbelt buckle.
Well, you will next week or this week
because there's a heat blast on the way.
35.
35's nice.
35's nice.
Anyway, you've been warned New Zealand
Heat blast on the way
Okay family meeting
Because we've got an idea
And we've got a plan
And sometimes we have these plans
Sometimes they go to plan
Sometimes they don't
Sometimes we crash and burn
And other times we rise
Yeah like a bald eagle
Like
Like Like a phoenix from the ashes You know we keep it real on the show So that's what we're doing with you now and other times we rise. Yeah, like a bald eagle. Like life.
Like a phoenix from the ashes.
You know, we keep it real on the show.
So that's what we're doing with you now.
We're going to put to you this idea that we have
and we want you to be real with us and say,
yep, great idea, you guys can do it
or we'll pump the brakes, guys.
I think it's a bit too far.
If you've been listening for a little while,
you might remember that last year,
before COVID, before COVID,
before COVID?
Before COVID, we bought a DeLorean.
Yes.
Well, it's a Mitsubishi Diamante masking as a DeLorean.
Yeah, it's a shitty old car with DeLorean stuff stuck to it.
But it's cool, okay?
And our plan was to drive that DeLorean down the country.
Time has come where we have an opportunity to do that. We've got a name
for it. We've got an idea. We've even got a
special intro for it.
Not only do we
have a crappy DeLorean
slash Mitsubishi Diamante,
we're going to strap, or we want to strap, a hot tub to Mitsubishi Diamante. Yeah. We're going to strap
or we want to strap
a hot tub to the back
of this thing.
Yeah.
The plan is to drive it
down the South Island
all the way to Invercargill
next week
and broadcast the show
live along the way.
From a hot tub.
From the hot tub
attached to a time machine.
It's the hot tub time machine.
It is literally
the hot tub time machine.
Now you might be going
great idea Brian Clint
this is radio this is award winning radio content. You probably have everything
organised. The car currently doesn't start.
It's got a few problems because it's quite old. It's quite old.
I mean only if we had a time machine could we go back in time.
Before we purchased the time machine. It won't start and when
it does start it's currently only running on three cylinders.
So, but we are literally in limbo at the moment
as to whether or not we can get this thing fixed before next week.
In the background, producer Ben is furiously trying to book things
like hotels and flights and stuff,
but you can't even do that until we've got a working time machine, right?
We're waiting for it to work, and then, oh, we are off.
Yeah, right. Just call up the doc. Oh, yeah, that's a good idea. If anyone knows how got a working time machine, right? We're waiting for it to work and then, oh, we are off. Yeah, right.
I hope so.
Just call up the doc.
Oh, yeah, that's a good idea.
If anyone knows how to fix the time machine, it's him.
He would, yeah.
The issue we're facing is we're on quite a tight timeline.
I'm having a baby, or we're having a baby very shortly,
which is going to count me out of any kind of adventure,
road trip adventure.
We need to do it now.
For quite a long time.
If it's going to happen, it has to happen next week.
Yes.
So what do you think?
Do you think this is something we're capable of doing,
bearing in mind that the DeLorean currently doesn't run,
it doesn't have a rego or a warrant,
and it needs to get from here to Christchurch
just to begin the road trip?
What are our chances?
Do you believe in us that we can pull this off
and take this hot tub time machine
on tour of the South Island
next week. Zach, you know what we're capable of.
What do you think?
Oh, it's a big call. Yeah.
I mean, yeah, we'll basically
get it running on four cylinders first. Yeah, totally.
It is a four cylinder vehicle. And we will be towing
a hot tub, so we need
every bit of power we can get. We won't be
towing it with water in it though. We'll drain it
each day.
Yeah, well, because I'm actually a mechanic by trade.
Yeah, well, if it's not running too well,
it has to be running bloody well if you're going to put some weight on the back of it.
Right, okay.
Zach, what if, I don't know if you heard last week,
but I purchased the personalised plates off our mate Julian Leschko.
What if we put the Leschko number plate on the back?
What are our chances then?
That'll probably make it run perfectly.
Okay, Zach, we'll put you down as a definite maybe.
Natalia, you know what we can do.
Do you think we're barking up the wrong tree here or do you think the hot tub time machine
is going to hit the road next week?
Well, Jason PJ's already done this.
Have they?
When did they take a time machine with a hot tub attached to the back of it?
They did all the hot present around the countryside, remember?
Yeah, but did they attach it to a time machine?
They didn't have it mobile, though.
Right, right.
Okay, so you're saying don't bother.
Is that what you're saying?
Oh, you're copying someone else's idea and putting a twist on it.
Right, okay, Natalia.
You're really keeping us real, keeping us honest here, Natalia.
Thanks, Natalia.
Let's go to one more.
Julianne.
Hi.
Hi, Julianne.
Hi there.
So on the ballot.
So I think if you're a big mechanic guy and work on the car and fix it all up for you,
you're all good to go. Yeah, I know.
See, Julianne, that's the kind
of attitude we need.
Positive. So you push ahead with
this thing? If you were to give us
a percentage, what do you think the chance
of getting the job done is at the moment, as
of Monday this week?
So you've only got Monday
till the weekend. Yeah.
And you've got no mechanics locked in.
No, we do have a mechanic.
They're currently working on the car.
But then we need to put signage on the car.
We need to get it looking spiffy.
95%.
95%.
I'll take that, Julianne.
I will take that from you.
All right.
Well, then I reckon we push on.
I reckon we just do as much as we can.
Maybe we need to call Jason PJ and ask them how they
did it. Maybe we can take another one of their ideas
actually while we're talking to them.
Okay. Watch this
space everybody. Who knows? And if
anyone knows how to, there's
just one part inside the
Mitsubishi Diamante. In fact, if anyone's got
a spare Diamante we could borrow, that'd be
really good.
Keeping up to date with the news, just Sabishi Diamante. In fact, if anyone's got a spare Diamante we could borrow, that'd be really good. We get unschemed.
Keeping up to date with the news just became a little easier.

Bree and Clint.
We were going to do this on Friday,
but we had a few problems with the phones,
so we didn't get around to it but
it's such a great story that i still wanted to talk about it today and it's a trend that's
happening on tiktok where people are posting about the stories of how they found out a secret about
their family right or something wild that's happened in their family right for example um
people are finding out that, you know,
they're not actually related to the dad that they grew up with
and it's actually their uncle and, you know, that kind of crazy stuff.
Well, that's some terrifying book yourself into therapy type stuff.
Well, I mean, you know, maybe.
Well, finding out your dad's not your dad.
And it's your uncle because your dad couldn't look after you
so your uncle raised you.
Buzzy. Yeah, stuff like that. That's not your dad. And it's your uncle because your dad couldn't look after you so your uncle raised you. Buzzy.
Yeah, stuff like that.
That's what people are talking about.
But this one story in particular that this girl shared on TikTok
was where she took the Ancestry.com test
and she found out that her dad wasn't her real dad
but her actual biological dad was a billionaire whoa take a listen to this my dad
came up with the brilliant idea of giving the entire family ancestry dna kits last year for
christmas i too have identified as irish because my last name is mcdonald and my hair is bright
turns out i'm 75 norwegian and the rest is bright red. Turns out I'm 75% Norwegian
and the rest is like German and British
and there's zero Irish.
So I called him cracking up saying,
"'Guess what? I'm not Irish."
He calls me at 10 o'clock saying,
"'There's no way you're not Irish.'"
So with my dad on the phone,
I log into my account to see if I have any DNA matches.
And I had an exact paternal match.
It just wasn't him.
I confronted my mom and two of my
aunts immediately. Everyone, including
my mother, was shit. But even my dad
recognized the name. Apparently, he was an
old family friend.
So I googled this dude's name, and he's
a billionaire.
So, it's
crazy, eh? So her dad's not her dad,
but her dad thought that, her dad
wasn't aware of this before she took the test.
I don't think the dad knew.
Can they do that with these ancestry DNA tests?
Well, all the ancestry tests is they just give you the information.
Yeah.
Of, they don't know.
But are they cataloguing other people who have done the test
and they know who's in there?
So her real dad, who's the billionaire,
I'm assuming he must have done his,
like he must have done his ancestry test at some point
and it directly connects them as a paternal match.
He must have consented to his information being shared.
I think you must have to, yeah.
Really?
But there's also a part of the story where she,
so she finds out that, and he was an old family friend
of this family, right?
Yeah.
Which makes sense because if the mum was like.
Oh, man, how awkward is this for mum?
Anyway, this girl drives halfway across the country
and she turns up at this guy's office to meet her real dad
and he didn't want to see her or whatever.
But that's where the story ends.
We don't know exactly else what's happened.
Buzzy.
Yeah, but he's a billionaire.
Yeah.
I mean, that would soften the blow a little bit. You know, I'd really take the edge off that. Yeah, but he's a billionaire. Yeah, I mean that would soften the blow a little bit.
You know, I'd really take the
edge off that. Oh yeah. You'd be like, mum, I can't
believe you lied to me. He's a billionaire,
darling. Oh, okay.
Well, at least I know now. I don't think
that's how it works. That's his number, I won't text him.
But crazy,
hey. Yeah. I reckon we
should ask people listening to the show,
like, did you find out some crazy backstory about your family like eventually?
Right.
Like what secrets were within your family?
Yeah.
There'd be all kinds of stuff.
You know, like your parents or your dad has a secret kid or, you know,
because he had a relationship with someone else and then who knows what could come out.
Some murky stuff.
Is there any positive stuff?
Because this is all pretty dark.
Any positive stuff you could find out about your family?
It could be cool if you'd never had a sibling and then you find out that, you know, you've
got a secret sister or brother.
Yeah.
Or maybe you find out you're of like royal blood or something like that.
Yeah.
Or you inherit money or something.
Possibly.
Oh, 800 dials at M or text us on
9696. We want to know what crazy
thing you found out about your family.
That's right. Okay, cool.
Alright guys, what's the
family secret that you uncovered?
Because, I mean, there's secrets
in every family. Yeah. Some families
have bigger ones than others.
Like secret siblings or
secret love child.
Or secret inheritances.
Or that, yeah.
Secret lotto wins.
Maybe you found out you were related to a famous person.
Maybe there's a big family secret and you were the last one to find out.
We just heard about a girl who found out that her real dad's not her dad
through Ancestry.com.
Yeah, it matched her with this other guy who used to be a big family friend
of the family's.
And is now a billionaire.
And he's a billionaire.
So, what have we got on the phone?
Sydney's here.
Hi, Sydney.
Good afternoon.
G'day, Sydney.
Hello.
How's it going?
Good, thanks.
Sydney, did you uncover a family secret?
I did not, but my mom found out that she had a sibling
after my grandma passed away.
And then just a couple of years ago, found two more siblings that my grandma had adopted out.
Whoa.
You're kidding me, Sydney.
So were these half siblings or full siblings?
Full siblings.
Whoa.
And she found out after her mom, your grandma had passed away?
Yeah. So she never got to talk after her mum, your grandma had passed away. Yeah.
So she never got to talk to her about it.
Nope, never.
You'd have so many questions.
Now, the big question is, has your mum made contact with them?
Yep.
So this is a happy story.
They're all friends and they all have good relationships with each other.
Yeah.
So, yeah, it's pretty cool.
That's really nice.
So it ended really well. It worked out okay in the end. Okay, thanks. So let's go to Anonymous number one. That's really nice. So it ended really well.
It worked out okay in the end.
Okay, thanks.
So let's go to Anonymous number one.
Hello, Anonymous.
Hi.
Hi.
What happened, Anonymous?
What secret did you uncover?
So my mother was adopted and she was told from Day Dot
that her father had passed away.
Okay.
And so we've lived our whole life thinking, oh, cool, that's fine.
And she did the
ancestry thing and found out he was alive
this was like 50 years later
and living on the West Coast.
What? What's going on with this
ancestry.com thing? Yeah, apparently this
happens quite a lot. Like it's great
that people like your mum are finding out their
truth and stuff, but
do you know that when you see the ad
on TV and you're like, oh I'd love to find out if I've got
any Tongan in me. Secret family
members. Yeah, and you swab your cheek and then
they keep it on file and they're stitching families back
together. Anonymous, they don't put that on the ad,
do they? No, they don't.
But we've got a grandad now. Yeah, you've got a grandad.
Yeah, great. So this is a happy story as well?
Yeah, happy. And I
wonder what the reason was as to why
they felt like they had to come up with that story.
Ancestry.com are more effective than David Lomas on missing pieces.
Yeah, just get Ancestry.com on the case.
Anonymous number two, welcome to the show.
What was the family secret?
So earlier on in this year, my mum told me that I was actually conceived
by a sperm donor, and so the dad that I grew up with
wasn't my biological father.
Buzzy.
Wow.
How old are you, Anonymous?
24.
Okay.
How did that make you feel when you found out?
It was a bit of a shock, not going to lie.
That's a massive shock.
Yeah, I never questioned it.
And then I spent three months trying to find him.
I managed to find him, and then I also found out
I have six half-siblings who are also donor conceived. Wow!
You've got a fertile dad. Yeah.
Is the dad who you grew up with, is he still in your life?
No, he passed away a couple of years ago. I'm so sorry. That's why they didn't tell me growing up.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Wow, okay. Wow. Yeah, that's amazing. So when you made
the connection with your biological dad,
was it weird for you?
Were you like, oh, yeah, I can see.
Well, have you made contact?
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
We're now like really close and we've gone on camping trips together
and all sorts.
That's just been over the last few months.
Oh, that's amazing.
Yeah, no, it's really cool.
Like when I first met him, it was kind of bizarre being able to put all the dots together.
Like, oh, that's where I get this from and that kind of thing.
And I mean, to be honest, no one has done anything wrong in that situation.
You know, obviously there was, you know, they went down that path because they needed to.
And then you meet someone who has like gave an amazing gift to a couple that couldn't have a baby.
I always think this about donors and how expensive Christmas would become really quickly.
Like when you find out you've got seven kids all of a sudden.
Well, there was that guy that found out that he had 90-something kids.
Wow, yeah.
In America.
Yeah.
And then they stopped letting people do that much donating.
Imagine how many Bunnings vouchers that guy would have got for Christmas.
Yeah, I know, right?
Bree and Clint.
Welcome to the show this afternoon.
The main host of Celebrity Treasure Island.
Excuse you.
Matt Chisholm.
My old mate, Matty Chisholm.
How are you, mate?
Good, Bree.
How are you?
Good, mate.
Good.
Well, you weren't very good yesterday because, Clint,
I saw on the internet last night, on the interwebs,
I saw this story about my old mate Matt Chisholm pop up.
And it was a story about how he had placed his laptop on the roof of his car
at Queenstown Airport.
Good place to keep it, Matt, can I just say?
Right there in the line of sight.
There's no way you're going to forget about it.
He then forgot about it and drove off.
The laptop's gone haywire.
And, you know, for any normal person, you'd be devastated. He then forgot about it and drove off. The laptop's gone haywire.
And, you know, for any normal person, you'd be devastated.
But Matt also had three months' worth of a book that he'd been writing on that laptop without backing it up.
How was the blood pressure after that, Matt?
Oh, mate, I was texting my wife saying, I'm dying.
So when I figured it out, I was in a paddock with a dozen lambs and I just started
yelling the F word over and
over again and I was
so dark. And then I rang my
wife because she's the only person that makes any sense
in a situation like this and she said
you've got to go back. You've just got to go back.
Retrace your steps. You have to.
You can't pay for another
one of those. It doesn't have your book that you
started writing on another one.
I was much more worried about the 72,000 words,
only 25 of which had been backed up.
So I was never going to write that book again
because I don't have the time to write it.
But thankfully, Michael, my new best friend, stepped up to the plate.
And you wouldn't believe it.
A guy named Michael found the laptop,
and we have him on the phone right now.
G'day, Mike.
G'day.
How we doing, everyone?
Mike, you're a true blue Kiwi hero.
Congratulations.
Michael, talk us through your side of the story.
Did you see the laptop sitting there on the side of the road?
Where do you come into this?
So I was in Queensland for the day with the wee fella
and we were heading home, heading up, going back to Cornwall.
And I'm driving around the five-mile roundabout there
and out of the corner of my eye,
I saw this black sort of leather thing
sitting on the verge.
A man bag.
A man bag, we'll call it.
A satchel, maybe.
Yeah, a satchel.
Sitting in the traffic there on the side of the roundabout
and I thought, that looks like a laptop sitting in that.
So I went up to the next roundabout, turned around, come back,
and sure enough, here's a MacBook Pro sitting on the side of the road.
What?
And you were like, ka-ching, I'm going to get heaps on Facebook Marketplace.
Yeah, absolutely.
I was like, how do I get into this thing?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And I was like, oh, damn it, it belongs to someone.
Would you believe it?
Oh, who would have thought a random laptop sitting on the side of the road
belonged to someone?
Well, my son said maybe it fell off a truck
and it was getting delivered, and it's not anybody's.
And I said, it says Matt Chisholm right here.
Okay, so once you realise that you're in possession
of Matt Chisholm from Celebrity Treasure Island's laptop,
how do you go about getting it back to him?
I put a wee post on Queenstown Trading saying,
does anyone know of Matt Chisholm that's missing a laptop?
And sure enough, a few hours later, I checked my phone again
and now I've got them in 10 odd messages.
And Matt messaged me a couple of minutes later.
Boom.
That's it.
So happy ending in the end.
Michael willingly returned the laptop for a fee.
Was there a fee charged, Michael?
Yeah, how much did you charge?
All I charged, I just told him,
when Survivor comes back, I want to be on it.
Why don't you give him a credit in the book?
You know, in the notes at the start where it says,
where it says, this book is dedicated to,
and I know you might want to dedicate it
to your beautiful wife and children,
but I think they're down the chain now.
I think the dedication is from Michael.
It should say.
Now, look, my wife is in earshot right now,
but I'm going to have to agree with you.
It should say, Matt.
Here it is.
This book was not possible without the help of Michael.
And that's what it should say because it's true.
Oh, it wouldn't be a book without Michael O'Keefe.
Yeah.
Well, it would be a book if you had backed it up to the cloud
or used a USB stick.
Like a normal person.
Like an adult.
That's Matt Chisholm and the man who found his man bag,
his MacBook and his book.
That's Michael.
Thanks, guys.
Thanks, lads.
Thanks, guys.
See ya.
True Kiwi legends.
There you go.
Well, one of them.
Well, one of them.
Matt, bit of an idiot.
Bree and Clint.
It's time to play What's Their Name?
Is that what it's called?
I was calling it the celebrity name game.
We haven't really named it yet, but we're still open to suggestions.
Give us the gist.
How does the game work?
Essentially, the game works, producer Anastasia will give us the name of a celebrity, and
then we need to decide whether or not that's their actual given real name, or a name that
they've given to themselves.
Playing on team Brianna today is Brianna.
Hi, Brianna.
Hi, how's it going?
Good. Welcome, Brianna. You, how's it going? Good.
Wait there.
Welcome, Brianna.
You'll be Bri's teammate.
Can you take us off speaker?
Just wait there for us.
And Alyssa, you're on my team, okay?
Hi, Alyssa.
Yay.
Hi, guys.
So together we're going to work this out.
We'll get questions each, and as a team you guys get to work it out, right?
That's correct.
Okay.
Great.
We'll just wait on Brianna.
Where's my girl Bri?
Just wait for her to come back.
How's your day been, Alyssa?
You know what?
We can start with Team Clinton Alyssa first.
Oh, yeah, true.
All right, Anastasia, when you're ready, give us our first one.
Here is celebrity number one is Meghan Markle.
Meghan Markle.
So we need to decide whether that's her real name
or if it's a stage name, Alyssa.
I think it's her real name.
I think it's her real name too.
I reckon she's been put under such an intense microscope from joining the royal family that we would know if it wasn't her real name. I think it's her real name too. I reckon she's been put under such an intense microscope
from joining the royal family that we would know if it wasn't her real name.
So we're going to lock in real name?
Yeah, definitely.
That's her real name.
Unfortunately, that's incorrect.
Really?
Her real name is Rachel Meghan Markle.
Is it?
Yeah.
My mind is blown.
There's no information as to why she's using her middle name.
Now that she's a Dutchess, it doesn't really matter.
All right, no point to us.
Brianna's back.
Hi, Brianna.
Hello.
All right, Brianna, here comes our celebrity.
Taylor Swift.
Taylor Swift.
Brianna, do you think that's her real name?
Yes, I do.
Do you?
Taylor Swift. Sounds like? Yes, I do. Do you? Taylor Swift.
Sounds like a normal, ordinary name.
You reckon?
Yeah.
All right, I'm going to go with my girl Brianna.
Is it her real name?
That is in fact her real name.
Yes, Brianna.
What kind of last name is Swift?
That sounds like a stage name if ever I've heard one.
Well, she was meant to be famous.
She was born to be famous.
Okay, 1-0. We're up, Alyssa.
Okay, here we go.
Here we go. Hugh Hefner.
Hugh Hefner's not his real name.
Nah, I don't think so either. Nah, we've got to
apply the Meghan Markle rule here.
If the first letter of the first name and the
first letter of the second name are the same, it's a fake
name, right, Alyssa? Yeah, I agree.
Definitely. We're going Hugh Hefner, fake name.
I'm sorry guys, Hugh Hefner is
his real name.
Marston Hefner, that's what he
was born as. Damn, we suck at this game, Alyssa.
Brianna, if we get this one right, we win.
Okay. Alright, Lish Gold.
Alright, your celebrity is
Michael Jordan.
Michael Jordan, I'm gonna say
Brianna.
I watched that doco, The Last Dance, multiple times.
That's his real name.
Yes, it is.
I watched it.
Yeah, you guys sure?
I love Alyssa.
I love you. I reckon you might have got the name off the shoes.
I'm going to say I'm like 99.9% sure.
What do you think, Brianna?
Yeah, definitely.
I just watched the documentary too. Let's lock it in. That think, Brianna? Yeah, it definitely is. Watch the documentary too.
Let's lock it in.
That's his real name.
You guys are on fire.
That's his real name.
Get it.
Oh, that's not fair.
We decided last week that sports stars don't have fake names.
Oh, fine.
Congratulations, Bri and Bri.
Yes, Brianna.
Woo-hoo.
Woo-hoo.
That's awesome.
Go us.
A muted response from the stands.
All right, there we go.
What are we calling it?
We're humble us, Briannas.
What are we calling it?
What's my name?
What's their name?
What's their name?
We'll work on that.
The name game.
Bri and Clint.
When did you have an adult tantrum?
It's a thing.
It's a thing.
It is a thing.
I reckon they're more embarrassing than kid tantrums.
Absolutely they are.
Because you should know better.
And, you know, we've all been there at some point.
But there's a story out today about a woman in the UK who was left seething as she's headed to the McDonald's drive-thru.
And she's sitting in the drive-thru and she thought she was going to make the breakfast cut-off.
Right. And turns out because the drive-thru line was so long,
she was about 10 minutes too late.
Yeah, right.
Okay.
And she was not impressed.
She was so unimpressed that she called the police.
I kind of understand where she's coming from.
I kind of get it too.
And I feel like it should be like a, because what is it, 10.45, 10.30?
We don't have it anymore because it's all day breakfast now.
So we don't have this problem.
But over there they've still got that problem.
I feel like if it's 10.30, they should come out
and they should put like a velvet rope behind the last car
that got into the drive-thru and go, okay, you're the last one.
This is the cut off.
You're the last one who gets breakfast.
See, that's fair.
Because it's not your fault how long the car's in front of you take.
And you think you've made it, and then when you get there,
but I mean, does it warrant calling the police?
Few factors I would like to know.
Was she hungover?
Look, it doesn't say, but I'm going to say possibly.
It's a given that she's hungry,
so this could be a hanger induced adult tantrum.
Yeah. Does it warrant calling
the police? No. I feel like
the drive through
does cause quite a lot of stress
to people. I read this other story
and I don't know if you've heard this story before
but it's about a woman from Canberra in
Australia. Yeah. And she said
she felt real bad because
she was in the drive-thru
and she was sitting there ordering and she was taking quite a long time.
Yeah.
And there was a young girl behind her and after a few minutes
this young girl got impatient so she beeped her
and this woman in the car was like, oh, come on.
Like I'm in the drive-thru, I'm ordering my food.
She's like, you know what, I'm going to keep my calm.
I'm going to drive up to the window.
I'm going to pay for this other girl's meal.
Yeah.
So she got to the window, paid for her meal.
Yeah.
And then she was obviously next in line.
And when the other girl got to the window and they said,
oh, she's just paid for your meal.
Yeah.
She's like waved at her and said thank you, which is really lovely.
But this woman said she then had a change of heart
because then when she got to the window where you collect your food,
she showed them both receipts and took both the food.
Yeah, that's a boss move.
That is the best thing I've ever heard.
Back to adult tantrums.
You see them go down often in relationships.
Like you've seen, I've seen instances
where the smallest thing will happen
or someone in the relationship will do the tiniest thing.
But because it's a pressure cooker situation
and maybe you've been letting this thing
like the toilet seat or the laundry or whatever it is
build up and build up and build up
to the point that it explodes like a volcano
into a full adult tantrum situation.
And then once the pressure's been relieved and you have time to calm down, you go,
I've not come off well there.
And I think I lost my shiznit.
I think maybe I'm in the wrong.
It's good when you can recognise it though.
It's good when you can recognise that you've overreacted.
Totally.
Because if you can't, there's a problem.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Then it's only going to fester even more.
Why don't we take some calls this afternoon on adult tantrums?
Yeah.
When did you have an adult tantrum?
What made you lose your shiznit?
Little things.
Little things like McDonald's breakfast.
Or it could have been, you know,
someone didn't hang the washing out in time.
Yeah.
Or someone put the chocolate in the pantry instead of the fridge. Someone ate your leftovers. Something
like that. And what did you do? How did you blow up? How did you blow it way out of proportion?
We want to hear from you guys this afternoon. Our phone number is 0800DIALS.M and you can
also text us on 9696. Adult tantrums. I can't wait to hear them next.
Bree and Clint. When did you have
an adult tantrum? Was it a little
thing that made you lose your shit?
You know, we all get to that stage
at some point and it's the
tiniest thing that will set you off.
A very relatable,
understandable woman in the UK
has called the police because
she didn't make it to the McDonald's drive-thru window
before breakfast finished.
She said that she believed the line of the drive-thru
held her up for so long, that's why she missed the breakfast cup.
And that is a matter for police, as far as she was concerned.
She thought the police should know about this?
To be honest, it sounds like it's a good thing the police were there
because if they weren't, who knows what she would have done.
Who knows?
Who knows what anyone will do during an adult tantrum.
You don't know.
So we're asking you on 0800DIALS at M,
what did you have an adult tantrum over?
Natalia has called up.
Hey, Natalia.
Hi, Natalia.
Hi.
Good on you for being able to admit it.
What was it?
What was your adult tantrum over?
Okay, so when I'm drinking,
hubby has a habit of picking up my
phone and his phone and collecting everything
up to pack me
and my
unsober bum into the car.
Yeah, okay. And I spend
like the next 10 minutes having an absolute meltdown
trying to find my phone thinking I've lost it. Right.
Oh, yeah. When in actual fact
he's gone around and made sure all your bits and pieces
are collected.
Literally.
Is this an every time thing, Natalia, or is this a once in a blue moon?
No, pretty much every time.
It does my head in.
Natalia.
He needs to get you a lanyard and just pop it around your neck.
Or, Natalia, just use your human handbag, your breasticles,
and just pop it in there.
Oh, no, I forget to do that.
Yeah, right. Scared.
Well, I won't ask any more questions on that one.
Who knows who they're going to call?
Probably long-distance call. Maybe she's worried she'll never get it back. Adam's here. Adam, did you have an
adult tantrum? Oh, yeah, man.
Like, one morning, me and
my mates went out surfing and, like, you know,
didn't have breakfast. I packed an up-and-go
and, you know, we were surfing all day.
I think I got out of the water at about lunchtime.
I went back to the truck to go and get it.
Like, one of my mates had already drunk it,
and I was, like, so mad.
That would make me rage.
Especially because that's what it tells you to do
on the up-and-go ad, right?
I've seen the up-and-go ad.
The guy just grabs his surfboard and gets out there,
and that one up-and-go sustains him for the whole day out on the waves.
Yeah, that's exactly what it was.
I couldn't stop thinking about it.
What are you doing keeping your up-and-go in the car?
It would have got hot.
Oh, it was in the glove box.
It's long-life milk.
It'll be fine.
Yeah.
It's fine.
I would have thought the glove box was worse.
Thanks, Adam.
I think, yeah, right, adult tantrum.
I need to read out some of these texts that are my favourite.
Someone texted through when they had an adult tantrum.
They said, after a big weekend, we ordered pizza on Uber Eats.
I was hung AF, so ordered a Coke, which never turned up without order.
I rang the pizza place.
They blamed the Uber driver.
Uber blamed the pizza place.
I cried over a can of Coke.
I totally understand that.
And this other text that I really love, someone
said, my narcissistic
ex-husband had a massive
adult tantrum in the Queenstown
Airport, New Zealand luggage
check-in area. His bag was
a few kilos overweight
so he threw his belongings
everywhere.
And in that text message may be the reason why he's your ex-husband.
Exactly.
Possibly.
Jane's here.
Hi, Jane.
G'day, Jane.
Hi.
Was it you who lost your biscuit?
No, it wasn't me.
It was my old flatmate. I thought you'd like this one, Clint, because I've seen your polls on the tomato sauce.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
She liked to keep the tomato sauce in the fridge.
I don't eat the stuff, so I couldn't care less.
And if it was left out of the fridge, she would make us buy a new tomato sauce.
So one day she had left it out, so I left the note saying I was sick of buying tomato
sauce, and I put it in the fridge.
And she didn't really like it and kind of got a bit angry and threw a chair across the
room.
Whoa, over tomato sauce?
Yeah.
She was fine though.
It's like, we keep living together and she's fine.
This is why, this is why, and I'll say it until I go blue in the face,
you can't trust people who keep tomato sauce in the fridge.
And Jane, I thought you and I talked about this.
I'd apologise for you for that.
You know, I thought we were past this.
Tomato sauce is fine in the pantry, okay?
Nah, fridge all the way! Fridge all the way! okay? It's fine in the pantry.
Free Joe the way!
Free Joe the way!
Thanks, Jane.
Have a great afternoon.
See ya.
We were just talking before about adult tantrums,
those moments where you lose it as a grown-up,
and you know once you've calmed down that you're being irrational and you shouldn't have reacted the way that you did,
but you did for whatever reason.
I have a lot of adult tantrums when I'm hungry. Yes, hunger's
got a big part of it. I get really
bad, like, hanger. Yeah.
Yeah, this is probably
hanger related. Someone said, I had a meltdown
when I was overwhelmed by how
much I had to cook to feed my
giant partner.
Now, that's a unique one. That's a unique one
because they're not allowed to get angry at you
or criticise you for the wobbly that you've thrown
because you're literally trying to feed them.
Exactly.
And I wonder how big, like how much food, like how big.
I'm thinking of that guy from Game of Thrones who does the Soda Stream ads.
Or Aquaman.
Or Hagrid.
I'm thinking of Aquaman.
Yeah. Hagrid. I'm thinking of Aquaman.
Birthday banger time.
Same time every day we do this.
We get you guys on and figure out what was the number one song that was top of the charts on your 16th birthday.
Journey's going first.
Hi, Journey.
Hi, Journey.
Hi, how are you?
How good is it going to be if it's Don't Stop Believing for you?
I know.
What did that mean?
I really hope it's not.
Very cool name, Journey.
I'm a fan.
Were you named after the band?
No, not at all.
Okay.
Do you know what, were you named after anyone or anything?
No, not really.
I don't know.
You're just a part of a journey.
Yeah.
Okay, all right, let's do it.
Let's do your birthday banger.
What's your birthday?
My birthday is the 13th of April, 2000.
All right, you were 16 in 2016 on the 13th of April.
And, Journey, this is your birthday banger.
I took a pill and he beat me.
Yeah.
To show off he, she, I was cool.
Mike Posner.
My favourite.
Not bad, not bad.
Not bad at all.
Journey, I do a great impression of Mike Posner. Always have. All right, let bad. Not bad at all.
Journey, I do a great impression of Mike Posner.
Always have.
Let's hear it, let's hear it. Okay.
Crushed it.
Is that about your playing the song?
Yeah, right?
It sounded like a real thing.
Okay, wait there, Journey.
You might be winning this thing.
Hi, Cleopatra.
Hi, Cleopatra. Hi, Cleopatra.
Hi, how are you?
Another great name.
How are you?
I'm great.
Were you named after the band?
No, I was named after Queen Cleopatra.
You were named after her?
Yeah, because I'm half Greek Cypriot.
Oh, cool.
You weren't named after Cleopatra coming at you?
No, not Cleopatra coming at you. Also, Cleopatra Comin' At Ya. No, not Cleopatra Comin' At Ya.
Also, hey, not that one.
Cleopatra Comin' At Ya, they were great.
All right, Cleopatra, what's your birthday?
25th of August, 1988.
All right, you were 16 in 2004 on the 25th of August.
And in 2004, this had a number one hit.
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you.
Whoa.
Oh, good song.
Throwback.
Natasha Bedingfield is so underrated, eh?
Very underrated.
I also love that song from her brother.
Daniel Bedingfield, gotta get through this.
Gotta get through this.
Was this Natasha Bedingfield song on a TV show as well?
It could have been.
I know the other one was on The Hills.
The Hills, yeah.
And very famously on The Hills.
Do you love this, Cleopatra?
I do like that song, actually.
And I like her brother's song.
Aren't they Kiwi or something?
Yeah, they're Kiwi.
Yeah, they are Kiwi.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, wait there.
Wait there.
We'll get one more for Choppy.
Hey, Choppy.
G'day, Choppy.
Hi, how's it going, team?
Good, mate. How are you? Yeah, allay, Choppy. Hi, how's it going, team? Good, mate.
How are you?
Yeah, all good.
All good.
Living life.
Like it.
Choppy, I'm excited for this one.
What's your birthday?
First of the 10th of 73.
Yes, this is good stuff.
You were 16 in 1989 on the 1st of October.
And in the late 80s, this reached the top of the charts.
Huge, Chubby.
The big 52.
Do you like it?
Yeah, well, yeah.
I know I've partied to it a few times.
Yeah, partied to it a few times, yeah.
This is big on TikTok at the moment.
Um, well, yeah, this is really hard.
I genuinely really like all of those songs.
I'm a fan of all of them.
Mm-hmm.
You can pick first.
I feel like I've picked first for the last week,
so you can pick first this time.
Uh, I'm going to pick the B-52s.
Oh, you're such a punisher.
Why?
That's a great song.
It's big on TikTok.
It is a great song. It's trending on TikTok.
Yeah, but what about Natasha Bedingfield?
That song literally came out of nowhere.
Yeah, but it's a bit of a slow one.
I like the song.
But then what about I Took a Pill in Ibiza?
It's a bit of a slow one also.
Right.
No, but you make your pick.
No, no, no.
I'm hearing you.
I'm listening to you.
I want to be convinced.
I don't want to convince you. You have to make your pick and then we no, no. I'm hearing you. I'm listening to you. I want to be convinced. I don't want to convince you.
You have to make your pick
and then we can get the producers to pick.
Right.
You don't want to send it to the producers.
Pick what you think.
I want to tentatively send it to the producers.
No.
No, I want to.
I want to.
And I want to send it to Ben.
Anastasia.
Ben picked last time.
Okay, Anastasia.
If we were to go to a split decision,
what one are you going to vote for?
Yeah, it needs to be something upbeat.
It's got to be the B-50 Toes.
Yes, my girl.
I love both our songs, but no.
So that means there's no point in me choosing anything other than the B-50 Toes.
This is not how birthday bangers work.
I was going to choose it anyway.
You're meant to.
I was going to choose it anyway.
Does it hurt?
What?
When you have that fence paling up your bum?
Sitting on the fence?
Choppy, you've won birthday bag and congratulations.
Yeah, nice work, my pup.

You're what?
Henry Rusty Love Shack ZM, Brian Clint
The winner of Birthday Banger.
Handpicked by me.
I just realised I have bad memories of that song.
Do you have bad memories of that song?
Yeah, I remember being at a, it was like a dance for a festival
and I was really young and I remember looking and seeing my parents
on the dance floor grinding each other.
Oh, you mean like a country music, country festival?
No, not country.
Not like a Rhythm and Vines festival?
No, no, yeah, like a small town, like apple and grape festival.
Right, right, right, right.
And I remember looking over and my mum and dad are grinding each other and I was like, what are they doing?
To that song.
To that song. We should call them up and just put it on. I think that? To that song. To that song.
We should call them up and just put it on.
I think that's how my dad did his knee, actually.
Beat Mike Posner.
Beat Natasha Bedingfield.
I wouldn't mind hearing more from Mike Posner
or Natasha Bedingfield.
Same.
Yeah.
Or the B-52s.
Speaking of, up next, Clint.
You know, we all talk about one-hit wonders, but we never talk about the people who were
two-hit wonders.
Like Natasha Bedingfield.
She was in my list.
Yeah, right.
Perfect.
I've compiled a list of two-hit wonders, and maybe you never knew this, but I'm going to
delete you.
Like Mike Posner.
Damn it!
Bree and Clint.
Something, a term that's used often is a one hit wonder, isn't it?
We all know, you know, probably the most famous one, Vanilla Ice.
Yeah, one hit wonder.
One of the most famous ones.
Who else?
Lou Bega, Mumbo No. 5.
No, he's got another song.
No, but was it a hit?
No.
No, and see, this is what we get to.
I mean, there's heaps of them.
MC Hammer.
MC Hammer, Wheatus, OMC.
Yeah.
You know, a lot of people who had one-hit wonders,
but what classifies a one-hit wonder into the two-hit wonder category?
Two hits.
And this is what I want to play today.
Right, okay, sure.
Where I've compiled a bunch of artists who I think are two-hit wonders.
Sure.
But I'm going to play you the songs and then you tell me whether
or not both songs are big enough to classify as a two-hit wonder.
Sure, because I know what you're saying.
A lot of people want their favourite artist to not be classified
as a two-hit wonder.
They're like, no, but what about the fourth song off their debut album?
No one's heard it.
I think all of these people I'm going to put up here are two-hit wonders.
And I'll give it to you straight as well.
Yeah.
So we talked about her just before.
She is a Kiwi, Natasha Bedingfield.
Of course, this song here, a massive hit.
There's no denying it.
It was massive on the heels, unwritten.
Yep.
I believe this second song was also a hit.
Why did you choose this one?
Surely it's the other song from Birthday Bagger that we just played.
You got a great point.
I'll give you this. Natasha Bedingfield, not
a one-hit wonder. No, she's got more than one hit.
Alright, we can agree on that. Let's get into
some not as well
known bands.
A band named Tone Lock.
Yes, Tone Loke.
Tone Loke, and you'll remember this
song.
That's a hit.
Massive hit. Goes off's a hit. Mm-hmm.
Massive hit.
Yeah, goes off at a wedding.
I believe they're a two-hit wonder with, of course, this song.
Yeah, 100%. Two-hit wonder.
Yeah, two-hit wonder.
They exist.
Yep.
Both great songs.
They could be a three-hit wonder.
I just don't know any other tone like.
That's why they're a two-hit wonder.
Yeah, right.
Okay, yeah, sure.
Cool, cool, cool.
All right, what about, do you remember KT Tunstall?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Do you remember this song?
Suddenly I see you.
Suddenly I see you.
This is what I want to be.
You don't remember that?
Yeah, I know it.
Yep.
That's a hit.
Arguably their biggest song.
Wait, is KT Tunstall not one person? I mean, arguably their biggest song Wait is Katie Tunstall
Not one person
I mean
Arguably her biggest song
Oh right
I think I'm about to blow my mind
With the fact that
Katie Tunstall was a band
I think she had a band
Yeah
Do you think this song
Is big enough for her
To qualify into the
Two hit wonder song
I love this song
This is great eh
Yeah
But was it a hit Just because I love it Doesn't This is great, eh? Yeah. But was it a hit?
Just because I love it doesn't mean it was a hit.
Big Black Horse and the Cherry Tree.
Black Horse and the Cherry Tree, yeah.
Great song.
I'm going to give it to her.
I'm going to say she's a two-hit wonder.
Two-hit wonder?
Yeah.
All right.
Let's move on to Owl City.
Owl City's not a one-hit wonder.
I'll tell you, before I even play this next song.
Because they backed it up.
Obviously, this song, Fireflies, massive hit.
Yeah.
But they also backed it up with this banger.
Two-hit wonder.
With Carly Rae Jepsen.
And this song here was a two-for-one
because it meant that Carly Rae Jepsen wasn't a one-hit wonder either.
Exactly right. Yeah. There you go, Owl City, a two for one because it meant that Carly Rae Jepsen wasn't a one hit wonder either. Exactly right.
Yeah.
There you go,
Our City, a two hit wonder.
Let me take you back
and I don't think we've ever talked about
this band on the show
but I think a massive, massive candidate
for Soft Rock Thursdays.
Yes.
Five for the Fighting.
Five for Fighting is an absolute soft rock icon, yeah.
But we've never talked about them, have we?
No, we never have, no.
This was a massive song, wasn't it?
Mm-hmm.
Do you reckon this next song puts them in the two-hit wonder category?
It's on the cusp. Nah, that's not the cast.
Nah, that's not a hit.
This is the second song that comes up automatically when you listen to Fire For Fighting on Spotify.
And that's why they've got the plays.
And that's why you recognise it.
That's why they've got the plays.
Yeah.
Alright, so they're off the list.
One more for you.
How could we forget about Dido?
That's a hit.
Yep.
White flag.
Massive hit for Dido.
I'm going to say this next track puts her in the two-hit wonder category.
That's a hit.
Didn't?
Dido won like Grammys and stuff, didn't she?
She's way more than a two-hit wonder.
No, but...
Or is this a...
Because I can't think of another Dido.
I was going to say, you name another Dido song right now.
Well, I can't, you see.
Two-hit wonder.
I feel like she's a bigger deal than that, but yeah, I'll give you that.
She's definitely not a one-hit wonder.
No. Yeah. She's got at a one-hit wonder. No.
Yeah.
She's got at least two.
Congrats, Dino.
It's all worth it now.
She was great.

Donald Trump has left the building.
You know this.
See ya.
And Biden is wasting no time changing things.
Not just legally, but also aesthetically.
The Oval Office.
Have you seen the side-by-sides of how much he's redecorated since trump yeah he's gotten rid of the heaps of things it looks way classier
does one of the things biden has done and one of the first things he did which i don't know if it
should have been that high on his list of priorities but it was was to remove a button that donald
trump had had installed which when he pushed it a ice cold Diet Coke would immediately arrive in the Oval Office.
I read stories where he'd have people in the office
and he would press this button and people would think,
because of what it looked like,
people would think that something really bad was going to happen.
It looks like the button he would use to launch the nukes.
That's what it looks like.
It also looks like the button on Montgomery Byrne's desk
that he pushes to release the hounds.
Release the hounds.
Or to open the trap door.
Ah, smithers.
But no, Trump used it for Diet Coke.
Look, as comical as that is,
do you think Biden's missing a trick by getting rid of that button?
Who doesn't love an icy cold Coke on demand?
He could have, though, if he's not a fan of Diet Coke.
He could have just reinstalled if he's not a fan of Diet Coke. He could have just re-installed it or re-wired it to bring whatever he wanted.
Exactly right.
Like a...
Viagra.
Bud Light.
No, no, you've said it and that's fine.
Let's talk about it.
If we were president.
You know where your brain's like, say it, say it, it'll be funny.
And then once you say it, you're like, shouldn't have said that.
I don't think we need to ask the question I was going to ask now.
I was going to ask what's the button bringing by.
I'm so sorry.
Some things you really should keep to yourself.
Screw it.
Quickly, what's the button delivering?
Orgasms.
Oh, far out.
It happened again.
