Good afternoon, New Zealand.
Happy Monday.
Let's just kick off the show with, you know, the Warriors on Saturday night.
Boys, so proud of you.
Couldn't come away with the win.
Obviously, the Broncos too good on Saturday night,
but the Warriors, what a season to go from 15th in the table
to third or fourth.
Unreal.
Clint Roberts, obviously not here.
He pushed the boat out too hard
and is on a really bad two-day hangover.
Isn't that right, Producer Claude?
Something like that.
Yeah, it's what happens in your late 30s.
Yeah, he's getting up there.
You know, it's not one day as a hangover.
I hope he's not listening.
Hi, Clint.
Love you.
Hi, Clint.
Love you.
Hopefully you're recovering from that two-day hangover.
And the producers, roll call.
Producer Ella.
What's up?
We're here.
Producer Brooke.
Hello. That's up? We're here. Producer Brooke. Hello.
That's right.
Girls are running the ship this afternoon.
Hopefully, Clint feels better tomorrow.
He might be back, but we have a great show planned for you today.
We're going to do the $25,000 cash catch-up at 4 o'clock.
We've got a heap of money to give away, so be listening out for that.
We're also going to kick off the show, as per usual,
with Tradie versus Lady.
$50 cash up for grabs, thanks to KFC.
If you want it, you can call now, 0800-DIAL-ZM.
It's Tradie versus Lady.
Because, Producer Claude, there is no rest for the wicked,
and the wicked being the tradies versus the ladies.
Score update for the year, the ladies on 86 points.
The tradies starting to make a little bit of a comeback.
They're on 79.
So let's meet our contestants today.
On the ladies, she's from Whangarei.
She's 32, and she loves wearing odd earrings. Please welcome to the show
Alexis. Hello Alexis.
Hi there. What kind of odd earrings are we talking about? How odd?
Oh, just all sorts. I've got some Chilean
bandit ones, which are the appearance of bluey
and little mushrooms, little bats, little cauldrons,
all sorts of stuff.
I bet you're now known as the cool earrings lady.
Yeah, pretty much.
Absolutely.
All right, well, yeah, go on.
All the other mums at Kindy and that check out my earrings like, hey.
Yeah, I bet, I bet.
Hey, Alexis, let's meet who you'll be taking on this afternoon.
They're from Dunedin.
They're 25 and they once got lost in New York when they were 15.
Welcome to the show, Shannon.
How are you?
Good, Shannon.
What was that like, getting lost in New York when you were 15?
It was terrifying.
It's like a big concrete jungle over there.
Mate, you didn't stay at that what's-her-name hotel
that they did in the movie Home Alone.
May as well have.
May as well have.
Just live out Macaulay Culkin's dreams, right?
Hey, guys, we're going to play for $50 cash.
Thanks to KFC.
Here's the rules.
Alexis, your buzzer is lady.
Shannon, your buzzer is tradie.
When you think you know the answer, yell that out.
First person to get three correct will take home the money.
You guys ready?
Mm-hmm, yep.
All right, good luck.
Question number one.
Who famously said a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down?
Yes, Alexis.
Mary Poppins.
It is, of course, the iconic Mary Poppins.
She's away and flying.
One to the ladies.
Question number two.
The two NRL semifinals went down over the weekend.
Panthers versus the Storm and the Warriors versus the Broncos.
Which two teams went through to the grand final?
Trady.
Yes, Shannon.
Let's start.
Broncos, Panthers.
That is 100% on the money, Shannon.
Nice work.
You're on the board.
Up the waz. Up the waz still. Nice work. You're on the board. Up the waz.
Up the waz still.
They did us proud.
Question number three.
Buzz in, guys, when you can tell me who sings this song.
Yes, Alexis.
Taylor Swift?
No, that's wrong, isn't it?
It was worth a guess, but no, that's incorrect.
Shannon, you want to guess?
Is it Olivia Rodrigo?
I'll give it to you.
It is Olivia Rodrigo.
Nice work.
You swooped in there for the point.
Two to the tradies, one to the ladies.
You need this one, Alexis, to stay in it.
Question number four.
What kind of animal is Bambi?
Ladies. Yes, Alexis.
A deer. It is a deer. Nice work.
Got that one to stay in it. We're all tied up here. This is the
tiebreaker for the win. Question number five. Which actress
played identical twins in the 1998 hit film
The Parent Trap.
Ladies.
Yes, Alexis.
Lucy Lohan.
She's got it. She's a lady.
Woo!
Oh, she's a lady.
What a tight game to start the week.
Unlucky, Shannon, but Alexis, you come away with the $50 cash
from KFC and the win.
Oh, thank you so much.
Woo!
Amazing work, my friend.
Great game.
We're all just discussing different sayings that you maybe say wrong
or maybe you've learnt them wrong from someone else
because on the weekend I was sitting in the car with my partner
and obviously the weather here in Auckland was a bit average over
the weekend. It was pretty rainy, you know, not the best. And I said to my partner, I said, oh God,
this traffic is as slow as a wet week. And she looked at me and said, what did you just say?
I said, this traffic, this car in front of us is as slow as a wet week. And
she goes, wait a second. Is the saying not as slow as a wet wee? Oh my God. And I went,
what are you talking about? She goes, yours makes way more sense because a wet week when
it's been raining all week goes really slowly.
She was so close.
So close yet so far.
Like a wet wee, very different.
Very different.
That's something else entirely.
Although a wet wee better than a dry wee.
And probably pretty slow.
Yeah.
I mean, a dry wee would be very slow and painful.
So I thought we could talk about a few different sayings that maybe you were saying wrong and then had to be corrected.
Producer Ella, you want to jump in on this?
Yeah, I just thought of it.
I can't remember.
What's right, what's wrong?
I can't remember.
I always go in between.
Happy Halloween?
Halloween.
Halloween.
That's just a word.
That's not a saying.
That's a saying. Happy Halloween. Happy Halloween. Which one is it? Halloween. Halloween. Not hollow. Halloween. That's just a word. That's not a saying. That's a saying.
Happy Halloween.
Happy Halloween.
Which one is it?
Halloween.
Not hollow.
Hello.
Hello.
Hollow.
Happy Halloween.
What?
Halloween?
It's not Halloween, is it?
Halloween, right, with an A.
Happy Halloween.
Halloween.
Yeah.
Producer Brooke, you said one that blew some of the girls' minds in here.
What was it?
It's splitting image, not spitting image.
I say spitting.
Oh, she's such a spitting image of her mum.
Are you sure?
No, she's a splitting image of her mother.
It makes way more sense because a splitting image,
like you could split them in half and they look the same.
It makes more sense.
I've never heard, if splitting is right,
I've never heard a single person say it correctly.'s ridiculous spitting you spitting and then it just happens
into the image no it makes more sense that it's a splitting image but i do agree
i always say a spitting image yeah you know what i always used to say and i still refuse to say the
right one is uh tongue and cheek, he's so tongue and cheek.
Tongue and cheek.
What is it?
It's tongue in cheek.
Wait, is that the correct one?
Tongue in cheek.
Tongue in cheek.
Tongue in cheek.
It's not tongue and cheek.
No.
But everyone says tongue and cheek.
Does that mean they're lippy?
No, what is tongue and cheek?
They're like cheeky.
Oh, like, you know, it's a bit of tongue and cheek.
Oh, yeah.
They're like the banter, yeah.
Yeah.
Isn't that what it means?
So silly.
I don't know.
It's in a silly goofy mood.
What about how people say the term, they say a scapegoat,
but it's actually just scapegoat?
A scapegoat.
It's not an escape goat, like they've got a goat waiting
out the front as the getaway car.
You know, it's a scapegoat.
The one I hear is, I hear people say wrong. It's less of like a scapegoat the one i hear is i hear people say wrong it's less
of a like a saying and more of just a sentence people say i could care less like what is it i
couldn't care less like i physically could not care less but they always say i could care less
and it's like it means that you do care about it but you could care yeah so you could care less. You could care less about it. So you're kind of into it? My brain hurts.
That's such a good one, eh?
I love that one.
What about the last?
We'll finish on this one.
What's the saying, and I never, ever can get it right,
two in the hand's worth one in the bush?
Oh, that's.
Two birds.
Oh.
Two birds in the hand.
One bird in the hand is better than two in the bush. Two in the bush is one in the hand. One bird in the hand is better than two in the bush.
Two in the bush is one in the hand.
No.
No?
One bird in the hand is better than two in the bush.
Stay away from my birds in my bush, all right?
Yeah, please.
I'm not going to use that saying.
It's too risky.
What does that one mean?
Is it like you've gone hunting, you've caught a bird?
Is it like two birds with one stone?
No.
Is that a...
It's like if you've got a girlfriend,
but you're looking at another girl,
you've got one good girl back here with you.
Stop trying to be like, try to get two of one thing.
You've got one good one.
Is it the same bird that's up early?
You've got it in your hand.
Oh, my God.
And just stay...
Possibly having two.
Yeah, gotcha.
Because it's still in the bush.
Yeah, just stay in your bush where you belong.
No, stay out of the bush.
Oh, stay out of the bush, yes.
I still don't get it. I don't get it. Let's put it out bush where you belong. No, stay out of the bush. Oh, stay out of the bush, yes. I still don't get it.
I don't get it.
Let's put it out there to you guys.
0800 dial ZM or you can text us on 9696.
What were the sayings that you were saying slightly wrong?
Or maybe it was a word that you just weren't quite right.
0800 dial ZM or you can text us on 9696.
Bree and Clint.
Look, we're talking about sayings that you might have been saying wrong
and we've all been here before.
There's a lot of questioning over whether it is splitting image
or spitting image.
I'm so sure it's spitting.
You were so positive.
I'm so sure.
But then producer Brooke was positive that it was splitting image.
A lot of people saying that they reckon it is
spitting image. But why?
What does it mean?
Yeah, it doesn't make any sense.
But we digress. We move
on. We want to hear from you guys.
0800 dials at M or you can text us
on 9696. This
text came through. Someone said,
it's a doggy dog world.
That's wrong.
It's a dog eat dog world.
I found this out last week and I'm 28.
They were saying doggy dog world.
Doggy dog world.
I've definitely said that before.
Snoop Doggy Dog's World.
And you know what?
People would go so long saying it the way they've said it
because it does sound so similar.
Yeah.
If you say it fast, it all sounds the same, right?
It takes a certain type of person to correct you in public, you know?
You know the people I'm talking about.
But let's talk to Donna.
G'day, Donna.
I'm quite happy to correct people in public.
Good, Donna.
You're the people we need.
We need Donnas in the world, you know?
Tell us, was this saying one that you were getting wrong
or is this one you correct other people about?
Oh, look, I don't want to, you know,
I don't want to put this in public,
but, you know, I got it wrong for years
before someone corrected me.
Okay.
What was it?
So often people say I'm waiting on tenderhooks,
but it's actually tenterhook.
So it's not tenderhooks, which is what a lot of people say.
It's tenterhooks.
Tenterhooks.
It's an old English.
I think it's something to do with a butcher's hook.
Oh, is that what that's called, a tenterhook?
Don't quote me on that.
Well, you have already.
That's obvious.
It's too late, Donna.
I'm taking your word for it.
Way too late. Okay, well, there you go. I've learned late, Donna. I'm taking your word for it. Way too late.
Okay, well, there you go.
I've learned something, Donna.
I was probably saying tenderhooks.
You know, that would have been me.
Steph, what was it for you?
What was the saying that you were getting wrong?
Hi, I used to always think it was open sesame, like a sesame seed.
Wait a second.
It's not open sesame?
No, it's open says me. What?
Open says me.
Or like as in open says me. Like I'm
saying to open it from me. Oh my god, you've
blown my mind. But I mean, how fun is it to say open says me?
I still say it. Yeah. I still say it. Let's just go
through life pretending we don't know, Steph. It's a better way to live.
Thanks for calling through, mate. Appreciate it. I need to read out some of
these texts because they're just too good. Someone said, until embarrassingly
recently, I was saying making Ian's
meat rather than the well-known and common saying
making ends meet. Who's Ian? Oh my God. Imagine if that person's husband's name is Ian.
They're like, oh, Susie's bloody making Ian's meat again. A sandwich, corned beef,
corned beef. She's cooking up a corned beef and this one was too good.
My mother-in-law has a lot of what we call Karenisms,
the latest one being Eggs Benefit instead of Eggs Benedict
and also Twi-Won instead of Ty-Won.
Oh, bliss.
You know, I think this is a mum thing because, you know,
my mum, Mumma Di, can you think of the ones she has done on this show?
She has.
Oh, yeah.
She's done a few.
Pokemon.
Pokemon.
Instead of Pokemon.
And she also has Ariandagrande, which is another one of her favourites.
I think that's an improvement.
I like that.
I think it's more fancy.
Let's go to our last one.
Anonymous.
G'day.
Hey, how's it going?
Good, thanks.
Anonymous, have you done this before?
Like you've gotten a saying wrong or a word
or you didn't understand something?
Yeah, so I thought that the TV at the end of Taylor's version
meant an actual TV.
And I wasn't sure what the TV stood for.
Anonymous.
Yes, I thought it was an actual video for the song
and I was so confused, but now it makes so much more sense.
Oh, my God.
I could not love you any more than I do.
That is the sweetest thing.
So, obviously, Taylor Swift has redone a lot of her music
and so it's like love story and then it'll have a little TV
at the end of it.
And you thought that just meant that it was what, for the TV?
What did you think?
I had no idea, yeah.
I love you, Anonymous.
That's so good.
That's made my day.
Now go off into the world and spread that joy, Anonymous.
Thanks so much.
See you, mate. TV, so good. Thanks so much. See you, mate.
TV, so good.
Taylor's version.
I love that.
You wouldn't think about it.
You'd be like, yeah, I've seen TV before.
I know what that is.
I just, yeah, because that's what we all know it as.
I just picture Anonymous sitting there and the look on her face
when she realises and she'd be like, oh.
Bree and Clint.
It's time to get the latest
No Dean McCarthy today
But huge news out
As to who is going to be the headline act
For the Super Bowl halftime show
Producer Claude
I mean it will be hard to top
Rihanna because that show
Was absolutely ridiculous.
Like probably one of my favourite Super Bowl halftime shows.
And then the year before that we had Eminem, Dr. Drake, Snoop Dogg,
which was amazing, but obviously more than one performer.
And the year before that was The Weeknd.
And then the year before that was J-Lo and Shakira.
At the moment, I believe it will be Usher headlining the Super Bowl halftime show.
So just one performer, which is big.
And it just shows how big his back catalogue is.
Looking at the list, there's not many people that go solo.
They always have people with them.
So to be able to headline the Super Bowl halftime show on your own,
that is huge for Usher.
He apparently said,
it's an honour of a lifetime to finally check a Super Bowl performance
off my bucket list.
I can't wait to bring to the world a show unlike anything else
they've ever seen from me before.
So that's amazing news.
Clint's going to be frothing when he hears that.
He will be.
He's such a diehard Usher fan.
Huge Usher fan.
So this will be like his Christmas.
It's all come at once.
If he's sick that day, we know why.
What, he's flown to America?
Or he's just glued to his TV.
Yeah, just to watch.
Needs some time to focus.
The halftime Show. I believe he actually
was a part of
the Super Bowl Halftime Show as
like a real tiny guest in 2011
when the Black Eyed Peas
were headlining it. That sounds familiar.
But other than that, he will be
the main act for the Super Bowl Halftime
Show. There you go.
I read this story in the news today
and I was just like, hashtag relatable,
because these people are famous, but this was very relatable, this story. So if you don't know
who Kelsey Bellarini is, where have you been? Where have you bloody been? Now, Kelsey Bellarini,
she's a country musician and you might recognise her from this song.
Absolute banger. She's got a bunch of hits, very big in America. And she went through a very public divorce. She's only 30, but she's gone through a very public divorce
with another musician.
It was an Aussie country music singer, Morgan Evans. You might remember him.
Can I just butt in here?
Wait, she was married to Morgan Evans?
I believe so.
Oh, my God, I'm so out of the loop.
Yeah, so she was married to Morgan Evans and they went.
What a power couple.
Yeah, they were married for like, well, they were together for like five years.
So they were together for a long time and then recently i think she's still currently going through the
divorce because divorces take a long time to actually be processed uh but a story's come out
today because she has shared the story about how her new relationship with the actor Chase Stokes started. And you might know Chase Stokes from that Netflix show Outer Banks,
which has had a couple of seasons.
He's the main character in that show Outer Banks.
So people who've watched that show will know who that is.
But she said it was probably like four or five months after her
and Morgan Evans had really split up
and gone their separate ways and
she decided that she would
just randomly slip
into Chase Stokes' DMs
on Instagram.
The producers are clapping
yes queen, you get that
flirty behaviour. The best part
about it though is that she
slid into his DMs at like 1.07am.
Oh, my God.
We've all been, you know, we've all been there.
When it gets late at night, you may have had a few chardonnays
and then you're like, I'm going to send a few flirty texts around.
I'm invincible.
You know?
Exactly.
I am the hottest thing around. I'm going to send them all out. I am the hottest thing around.
I'm going to send them all out.
Anyway, so she sent off text.
Yeah, just on text.
All she said was, her game's not very good,
because she just said, hi, Chase Stokes.
That's all she said.
Right.
Full name.
Full name.
And he replied at 3.30 a.m., by the way.
He's feeling invincible too.
How you doing?
Friends reference.
I like that.
I don't know if it was meant to be a friends reference,
but I just did the voice.
Anyway, she wrote back the next day and said,
hi, I'm Kelsey, nice to meet you.
And then she said the rest was history.
They just couldn't stop talking and now they've been dating
for a number of months and they're in love.
All from taking the leap at 1 a. 1am to slide into someone's DMs.
We've all done it.
We've all bloody done it.
I thought we could put it out there this afternoon on 0800DIALZM.
Be brave.
Tell us about a time you randomly slid into someone's DMs
and it actually worked out for the best.
0800DIALZM or you can slide into our DMs right now.
Text us on 9696.
Who did you randomly send a DM and did it work out to be the perfect love story?
Bree and Clint.
Did you have the courage to slide into someone's DMs and did it work out for the best? Because Kelsey Bellarini,
the country musician, has shared the story about how her and her current boyfriend,
that's exactly what she did. 1am, I think it was 1.04am, she decided she was feeling a bit
little flirty and she sent him a DM and the rest is history. So we're asking, did that happen to
you? Keanu, do you want to kick us off, mate?
Hello.
What happened?
Did you slide into someone's DMs and did it end in a love story?
Yeah, so back in high school,
I was kind of like way too shy to actually talk to girls.
Okay, I understand that.
It is quite intimidating.
Yeah, so this girl I liked, I just slid into her DMs.
And, yeah, six years later, we're actually happily married.
Oh, no way.
Hey, Kiana, can you remember what was your opening line,
like when you did slide into her DMs?
No, probably nothing too out there.
Probably just hay.
Yeah, right, just to get a conversation started.
Pretty much.
I mean, you can't, like, how bloody good you just took the leap
and now you're married six years later.
Yeah.
I love it, Keanu.
Appreciate you calling in to share your story.
There you go.
It does work out.
What about for you, Alex?
Similar story. Did it end in love? Sort of.
Not in the end, but basically during lockdown
I thought, why not? I'm going to message this guy I'd seen around town and had met some
agents before I moved to Australia. Okay. And then came back for lockdown
and thought I'd sent a hello and be dated for three years.
No way.
Yeah.
So had you ever met before?
I think he'd once come into my work, but not that I remember, if that makes sense.
Yeah, right.
And you just decided out of the blue, you saw him in the street one day, he's a bit of me, I'm going to send him a DM.
Yeah, exactly. How long, can I ask, Alex, in between like matching with him,
did you wait to send him a DM?
Oh, it's probably like a month or so, I'd say.
Okay, that's not too bad.
Yeah.
Oh, well, it kind of worked out, three years, not a bad.
Nothing bad, just.
You had a good hoon and then you moved on.
Exactly, exactly. I love it, Alex. Thanks for calling through. Nothing bad. You had a good hoon and then you moved on. Exactly.
I love it, Alex.
Thanks for calling through.
There's so many good texts coming in on this.
There's a lot of people sliding into DMs where it worked out initially
and then kind of backfired.
Someone said, Bree, I've slid into your DMs but I had no reply.
Ha, ha, ha.
I wonder if that's true.s, but I had no reply. Ha, ha, ha.
I wonder if that's true.
I wonder if that's actually true.
But who knows?
Let's talk to Ricky.
G'day, Ricky.
Hi.
You didn't slide into my DMs, did you, Ricky?
No, not this time.
Not this time.
Whose DMs did you slide into?
So it wasn't a DM, but we, at a bar, met a friend.
We were being hit on by these two guys that we weren't interested in. And after a certain time, you could only go out.
You couldn't come back in.
Right.
And I went up to one of the bartenders.
I was like, hey, look, these guys are hitting on us.
We want to leave, but we want to stay here.
Can we disappear for a little bit and come back in?
If I can grab your number and let you know when we're on our way back.
And he's like, yep, 100%.
So we've been together nine years, married for two and a half with two kids.
Ricky, you're a smooth criminal, aren't you?
A hundred percent.
Oh, you knew exactly what you were doing.
You're like, I'll just get your number so then we can, you know,
organise when I can come back in.
And then, boom, slid into the DMs.
Definitely, definitely.
It worked out for the best, but, yeah.
It's like, we don't like them, but I like you.
So I was like, I'll have your number and you can let us back in.
Oh, good on you, Rikki.
Very smart.
Similar thing happened to me in my 20s, but I gave the bouncer my number
and he gave my number over to the police.
So, I mean, you know, same, same.
Hey, Ricky, thanks for calling through.
Appreciate your story.
Brianne Clint.
Let's have a game of Guess That Voice.
Very simple game, Producer Claude,
where you have rolled into the system a bunch of celebrity voices
and normally it's Clint and I with a teammate
and we go head-to-head guessing them the fastest,
but today we're streamlining the game.
Yes, since you're so good at this game,
I just didn't want you to have the advantage.
Yeah, absolutely.
That's definitely the reason.
That's what it is.
So today it's going to be Caitlin versus Ishmael.
G'day, guys.
Hi.
Right.
This is how it's going to work.
Ishmael, you're going to be versing Caitlin.
Producer Claude is going to play you the celebrity's voice.
First person to buzz in
with their name and guess it correctly
gets a point. First to three
wins the game. Alright?
Sweet. 50 KFC
chicken dollars on the line. I'll
hand it over to Producer Claude.
Just a reminder, buzz in with your name if you can tell
me what it is. Because it's Fashion Week
all around the world, I've taken a look
at some of the most fashionable celebrities.
So, good luck
to both of you. There's your hint, guys.
Fashionable celebrities.
Buzz in with your name if you can tell me who this is.
I mean, this is four years
of my life
and I think I'm
completely okay
with releasing it.
Friends with Taylor Swift.
Currently on the show Only Murders in the Building.
I think she's the most followed person on Instagram.
One of the most followed people on Instagram.
Her last name rhymes with Hormez.
Any guesses, guys?
No.
Selena Gomez? Oh, crap. Ishmael. Yes, guys? No. Selena Gomez?
Oh, crap.
Ishmael.
Yes, Ishmael.
Selena Gomez?
It is Selena Gomez.
Just got in there in the end.
Nice work.
Nice one.
All right, one to Ishmael.
Here comes celebrity number two.
Ready?
I'm so excited for you to get ready with me.
We are going to do a full face of House Labs today.
We're going to get started with our concealer in shade 11.
Ishmael? Yes, Ishmael. Is that just Taylor Swift?
Oh, it's a good guess, but it's not. Caitlin, do you want to have a
guess? Is that Kourtney Kardashian?
Another good guess. Here is my hint. Are you ready?
Yep.
Ra, ra, ra, ah, ah.
Lady Gaga, Caitlyn.
Lady Gaga.
I'm going to give it to Caitlyn.
She got in first just, which means we've got to go to a tie break.
Here comes the last celebrity.
This is for the win.
I'm single right now.
It's not that I'm like, oh, pro single, yes.
I just think that I just have so much on my plate
that I can't even find the time to entertain a steady relationship.
Anyone?
Any ideas?
No.
Her boyfie is ASAP Rocky.
And she was the headline act for the Super Bowl halftime show last year.
Any ideas?
Oh, Caitlin, Rihanna.
It is Rihanna.
Nice work.
You just got in there in the end.
Tough round.
Tough round, guys.
But I'll give it to you.
You're stuck in there.
And, Caitlin, you have won the 50 KFC chicken dollars.
Nice work.
Thank you.
You're welcome, my friend.
Enjoy.
Yeah, that was a tough round from you, Claude.
Sometimes I do make it too hard.
See, I feel like all those voices were quite recognisable.
It's when you go real left of field and even...
When I do Grey's Anatomy characters.
Yeah, I'm just like way behind.
Producers, we all need to weigh in on this
because there's something that's happened on The Chase.
And I don't know about you guys,
but I'm a big fan of the show The Chase.
Ella's a big fan.
You love The Chase too?
Oh, absolutely.
Love The Chase. It's on the TV outside there. You's a big fan. You love the chase too? Oh, absolutely love the chase.
It's on the TV outside there.
You sound like a robot.
We were just talking about that.
I was like, man, we sound today.
I absolutely love the chase.
These are my real emotions.
Wait, yeah, are you AI?
Maybe.
We'll figure it out in here.
I don't know.
We need to talk about this because the Chase UK,
there's been a bit of controversy around one of the answers
that was given in the final chase by Paul the Sinner Man Sinner,
who is obviously on the Chase UK.
So here's the situation, right, because if you watch the chase,
you know how it goes. So three people from the chases made it back for the final chase
and they made it back with around 90,000 pounds,
which is a lot of money on the chase.
More than usual.
Way more than usual, which is about, I've done the math,
it's about 185,000 New Zealand.
So that's a lot of money on the chase.
Anyway, so they've got 16 steps.
The chaser, the cineman, was chasing 16 steps,
and there was one question that he was asked about One Direction,
and people watching saying he gave the wrong answer, okay?
So we've got the audio from the chase.
You're going to hear the question about One Direction
and you see what you guys hear and if it's the wrong answer.
Here we go.
Starts again now.
Which former One Directioner is the father of Bear Payne?
Liam Payne.
Correct. Dutchman, Yelly Cl Payne? Liam Payne. Correct.
Dutchman, Yelly Clarson plays what?
Dutchman.
Correct.
So he goes on to win, right? He goes on to win and they take the £90,000 off the chasers, right?
But people are saying, did he answer that One Direction question right. So the question was,
which former One Directioner is the father of Bear Payne?
The answer, of course, is Liam Payne.
People are saying they reckon he said Ian Payne.
Okay.
So now that we know that, Claudia, what are we going to listen to here?
Are we going to listen to the... I'll play the thing in full again.
Okay, one more time in full and then we've got it isolated so we can deliberate.
Good, good, good.
Start again.
Now, which former One Directioner is the father of Bear Payne?
Liam Payne.
Correct.
Did he say Liam or did he say Ian?
I don't know.
We've got it isolated.
Let's have a listen.
Oh, Ian.
Just go a bunch of times back to back.
DM Payne.
DM Payne.
This is like Laurel or Yanny. You can hear what you
want to hear. Nah, I reckon
you can hear Ian.
I'll hear it again. DM Pay again. It does sound like Ian.
We've also slowed it down.
There's no L there.
Ian Payne.
What are they going to do? Well, they took it off them.
They literally did it on the night and they said yep no that was
correct oh that's outrageous no bradley walsh bradley walsh accepted the answer of ian pain
instead of liam pain maybe he said em with an m so it's mostly right it's just missing the m
but i would argue that's still wrong. Ian Payne. Ian. Ian Payne.
Ian.
That is wrong.
They need their money back.
I'd love you to text us on 9696.
What can you hear?
I think he said Ian.
Ian Payne.
Or Ian at best, which is still wrong.
That's pretty bad.
You have to make the call.
In the moment, it's all happening.
There's music and lights and everything.
You think you get it and then.
But you don't actually think he thought his name was Ian.
I don't think he did, but I think he said it wrong.
Yeah.
Which it doesn't really matter.
You know, technicality.
If he said Ian or Ian, that's not right.
And they should be awarded the money because it was down to one second.
Are you kidding?
They would have won.
That makes a difference.
I feel so gutted.
Because they would have got a pushback and they would have said
the answer is Liam Payne and they would have won.
Anyway, we'd love to hear your opinions on 9696, the chase.
Guys, it's nearly as bad as that forward pass on Saturday night
in the Warriors game.
It's nearly as bad. Except Warriors weren on Saturday night in the Warriors game. It's nearly as bad, but damn.
Except Warriors weren't close to winning.
Oh, come on.
Bree and Clint.
From Tate McRae, it's called Greedy and damn,
am I obsessed with that.
Have you guys seen that blowing up on TikTok?
No, I haven't.
It's taking over.
So, you know Tube Girl?
Yeah.
Which was to another song.
People are now doing that kind of vibe to the Tate McRae song.
Oh, I see it.
Yeah.
Is this a new TikTok dance we need to learn, Bree?
Yeah, I'm going to get on one of the city buses tonight.
Okay.
And can you just bring like a big fan so I get that wind effect?
That'd be good.
I'll bring an electronic battery powered thing for you.
Leaf blower.
Yeah. Yeah. Great idea. I'll collect some money for the bail. effect that'd be good i'll bring a electronic battery powered thing for you leaf blower yeah
yeah great idea i'll collect some money for the bail i thought you were gonna say collect money
to throw at me oh yeah yeah some coins i mean some coins i've caught one in the eye uh speaking of
awkward situations um producer ella we need to discuss what happened to you yesterday because uh i feel
like it is relatable but also i feel like you were quite rude i do and i've been overthinking this
since i did it um basically last night me and my boyfriend ryan were like let's go out for food
um usually we have a spot and we just go straight there but we were like let's just
play it chill relax and wander around so what you wanted to do a bit of, you know, spontaneity when picking the restaurant.
Oh, see, it's risky.
It is risky.
And we, I wish we didn't do it because we were like walking around for ages.
We're like, oh, let's just pick something.
So we finally did.
Walked in there.
The lady saw us.
She sat us down.
Even like wrote something on her like board that she left on the table she had you guys
organized where the waters sat down on the table not yet thankfully so okay i think that was coming
she went into the back and as she went into the back ryan and i looked at each other like
we've made a mistake we need to leave what was it um okay I just, the music was so loud and I hate going to a place where it's like really sensory overload loud music.
Yeah, fair enough.
Sometimes I can push through and usually I do.
But this time I was like, I just don't want to, I don't want to do it.
It's too loud.
It's annoying.
I just want to relax on a Sunday evening.
So what did we do?
We literally stood up and left.
Did you run?
Yeah, kind of. It was a jog. People in the restaurant saw us jogging out of there did you say anything when you left no i'm going bright
red just thinking about it yeah we um completely left as she went probably to go get our waters
so you did a runner before you could do a runner because you hadn't eaten anything exactly and
i know it's okay at the end of the day like this happens but also i probably
should have gone about it a better way you know i was rude it's so interesting because i mean i
have been in this situation before where you go in because my biggest pet peeve i don't mind paying
money for food because i'm big foodie and i love food but if it's not good and i'm paying a lot of
money god it makes me angry so i always do my research about where i want to go and we're
in italy recently did i tell you guys i went to europe recently you went to europe i did uh with
my folks it was very romantic very romantic trip and anyway we spent like an hour looking for a
place to eat because my parents were like let's just go down on the street and find somewhere
and i was like this is my worst nightmare And eventually we walked into this place and it was so busy
and I noticed straight away that they were understaffed
and I was like, here we go.
I was going to say being busy is usually a good sign.
It is a good sign.
Because it's popular, people want to be there.
Yes, but it was just pure chaos in there.
And we'd already looked for a place for an hour,
so we were all starving.
After, I reckon reckon 15 minutes no one had even come over to say hello or to bring water or whatever and i looked at my parents and i said i think we should leave i think it's a sign
and so we got up and we and we left yeah because i mean you know it makes sense no one had come
over in 15 minutes did you do a runner like we did? No, we just got up, walked out calmly.
Because, I mean, we had a reason.
We were kind of like, you know, best to get out of here.
But, I mean, I took all the free bread that I could before.
No, I'm just kidding.
Fill your pockets and run.
Run, mum, run.
Mum, put this in your purse.
Put it in your purse.
Anyway, what do we think?
Was Ella in the wrong?
Yes or no?
Fill in producer Brooke? I reckon the least you could have done was just get a drink. Order a Coke. your purse uh anyway what do we think uh was ella in the wrong yes or no phil and producer brooke
i reckon the least you could have done was just get a drink order a coke you can't mark up a coke
and just get a coke and say oh we just wanted a drink and then oh but then you have to oh and
then you just you have to go to the register you have to pay for the drink that makes it even more
oh no i'd rather honestly i'd rather gap it I'm too awkward with that stuff. If you're my friend, I can address things, you know,
if we're messy and all of that.
I can deal with that.
Well, that's funny you say that because it was my bloody restaurant.
So you owe me a damn apology.
Tomorrow.
Tomorrow, okay.
Let's rip into a birthday banger.
Clint away sick, but we soldier on,
figuring out the number one songs on your 16th birthdays.
One of the best parts of the show.
We do it every day,
and it's because we get to play one of these amazing songs out in full.
Michael, we'll kick it off with you, mate.
G'day.
G'day, how's it going?
Good, mate.
How was your weekend?
It was pretty chill.
Miserable weather, though.
I know, right?
What did you think of the Warriors game?
Yeah, that happened.
That one hurt, didn't it?
It hurt bad, but, I mean, you can't take the amazing season away from him, though.
You know, you can't take that away from the boys.
Yeah, it was awesome.
It was great.
And there's always next season.
There's always next season.
I've been saying that all season.
Next season is definitely our season, 100%.
Hey, Michael, what's your birthday, mate?
24th of August, 1998.
All right, that means you were 16 in 2014.
And back on your 16th birthday, this was number one.
It's the Island vibes from The Boys.
Not bad, Michael.
Magic, rude.
Yeah, pretty chill.
I think it's quite a vibe.
I feel like it suits you as well for some reason,
even though I have no idea who you really are.
I like it, Mike.
Stick around.
That could definitely win.
Let's talk to Ben.
G'day, Ben.
Hey, how's it going?
Good.
What did you get up to for the weekend, Ben?
Oh, pretty disappointing weekend, watching the Lars get the big L.
But, hey, it is what it is.
It was a hard pill to swallow.
But, I mean, it's going to be one heck of a grand final this weekend,
Panthers versus the Broncos.
Oh, isn't it ever.
It's going to be a ripping one.
And, hey, the All Blacks are still in that hunt for the World Cup.
So, you know, you can't win them all.
Exactly.
At least we're not as bad as the Aussies.
Mate, did you see the game this morning?
Yeah.
Gee whiz.
It's just I feel so sorry for them because I feel like it's the coach that did them in.
But, hey, we digress.
I feel like this is a sports show and I'm loving it.
Hey, Ben, what's your birthday?
24th of July
1993. Alright, mate.
Well, you were 16 in 2009
and back
on your 16th birthday, this would have
been number one.
Around that time, it was
everything black-eyed peas,
including this one, I Got A Feeling.
What do you reckon, Ben?
Oh, a bit of a toe-tapper.
Wouldn't be my first go to it, but a toe-tapper.
Bit of a toe-tapper.
Mate, if you play that at a festival, the crowd goes off.
Oh, yeah, sounds it.
There's people taking their tops off, body surfing.
It's not a bad shout.
Hey, Ben, stick around for a sec.
We'll do one more for Linda.
G'day, Linda.
Hi, how are you doing?
Not too bad.
How are you doing, Linda?
I'm not too bad, providing this wet weather.
Oh, it's a bloody knife in my side, isn't it, Linda?
Yeah, it's a knife in everybody's side, I think.
Yeah, it is.
Whereabouts in the country are you calling from? Rotorua. Oh, so it's a knife everybody's got, I think. Yeah, it is. Whereabouts in the country are you calling from?
Rotorua.
Oh, so it's wet everywhere then?
Yeah, at the moment, yeah.
Well, hopefully it starts to clear up this week.
But until then, we'll do your birthday, Banger.
What's your birthday?
20th of the 8th, 1957.
All right, Linda, that means you were 16 in 1973.
And on your 16th birthday, Linda, are you ready?
Go for it.
This is it.
Ballroom Blitz.
That's a good one.
It's a ripper, Linda.
Ballroom Blitz from Sweet.
I feel like it could have been a one-hit wonder,
but an absolute great song for your birthday, Banger Linda.
Yeah, sure is.
Does it take you back?
Do you remember that one?
Yeah, I do.
When you probably had your fake ID out in the clubs,
maybe at Lava Room, Lava Bar?
No, they weren't even around in those days.
Oh, Linda, Hey, stick around.
Thanks for calling through.
We got a vote.
Producer Claude, you get a vote.
Oh, okay.
Because Clint's away.
I'll take his vote.
You are one of the top dogs here this afternoon.
What are you thinking?
What are you feeling?
I don't know ballroom blitz, so I'm going to cut that one out.
Okay.
I love it, though.
It sounds like meatloaf.
I really like it.
It's a tune.
I think for me it's probably black eyed peas. Are you going to go the one out. Okay. I love it though. It sounds like meatloaf. I really like it. It's a tune. I think for me
it's probably Black Eyed Peas.
Are you going to go the Black Eyed Peas? Yeah.
And that's the year I was born so I'll
stick with Ben. We're year sisters
and I'm going with that one.
I reckon. I'm going to go with
Toe Tapping Ben. It's Black Eyed
Peas. I got a feeling. Mate, you've won
birthday bang a nice work.
Oh, it's definitely the best of the list.
Absolutely.
The Waz couldn't get up, but Ben, he's taken the W here this afternoon.
My shirt's off.
Ready for a body swipe.
I like it, Ben.
Black Eyed Peas, I Got A Feeling.
Have a good one, mate.
See ya.
See ya later.
This is your birthday banger on ZM with Brian Clint. I got a feeling that tonight's going to be a good night.
Brian Clint.
The Black Eyed Peas.
I got a feeling it's a cost of living crisis.
That is the new and updated version.
That is your birthday banger for today.
Clint away.
He's feeling a bit under
the weather, hopefully back tomorrow. But before then, I read this really interesting study that
has been done where they've asked a lot of people. I'm talking thousands of people and they've asked
like a bunch of different questions, all types of questions. But one of the ones that stood out to me was they asked
these people, what is the salary in 2023 that you think people have to earn to consider that person
rich? How much money does someone have to earn in 2023, which would make you think, oh, that person's rich? It's quite an interesting question to think about
because it's obviously changed a whole lot and continues to change.
So I think we should discuss, Producer Claude,
what do you think for you in your mind
if you heard a person earned X amount of money,
would you think, oh, that person's rich?
The first number that pops to my mind is 200,000. a person earned X amount of money, would you think, oh, that person's rich?
The first number that pops to my mind is $200,000, which is, I feel like a lot. A lot of money.
It's a lot of money.
It is a lot of money.
But then also things are so expensive.
You'd be like maybe well off but not rich.
Because you have to think about how much you'd be taxed.
Oh, true.
Like someone who's earning $200,000, how much would they be taxed?
A lot.
I mean, depends.
If we change the governments, it could be more, could be less.
Producers, you guys are both quite young in your early 20s.
To you guys.
Young means poor, yes.
What do you think the number is?
Yeah, I'm agreeing with Claude 250 000 maybe that's like really rich i feel like okay if someone's earning that amount what about you
bro i have no concept of money i thought 100 and i'd say they're rich 100k a year. Yeah. That's a lot. 100K a year, says producer Brooke.
Well, the most common answer that people said,
and we're talking tens of thousands of people have answered this question,
the most common answer, which I believe, let me get the actual statistic here.
So I think 55.3% of this survey answered 250,000 or more. So we're in the ballpark.
You're in the ballpark was how much they thought someone had to earn for them to be considered between 200 and 250,000. 15.9% said 150 to 200,000.
6.7% said 100,000 to 150.
And 2.6% said 80 to 100,000.
Whoa.
It just shows you like.
Perspective, right?
It gives you perspective and shows you like where things are going.
Also, like over half answered $250,000 plus,
which is a whole lot of money.
That's so much money.
That's a lot of money.
I can't even imagine like what that would be like.
You know, like just if you, I think especially if that was after tax,
if you were taking home that type of money.
It's like winning the lotto every day.
Yeah.
We've done this on the show before and it was so much fun
and I thought we could bring it back where we want to ask you,
because we've asked the question before, like,
how do you know if someone's really rich, which, I mean,
cost of living crisis, let's be real.
So we decided we'd ask people,
how do you know if someone's doing just above average?
You know, like they're not poor, they're not rich,
but they're doing all right.
Like what is the key thing that shows you that?
Producer Claude, do you have any indicators?
Yeah, when your phone can control something that's not just your phone.
So you have something that's got Wi-Fi, yeah.
Or like a smart light.
Yeah, like a light bulb.
A heat pump.
That's such a good one.
You know what does it for me?
If I go over to someone's house, if they have matching fancy hand soap
in all like the bathrooms and the kitchen.
Like if you've got Aesop in all of the the kitchens I'm like, fancy. You're fancy.
That's fancy. What about the producers?
What about you Ella? Buying
shopping bags at the checkout.
You can afford to forget
your shopping bags. Truth.
You can afford not to care about the environment.
And not the paper bags.
What about you producer Brooke?
I said they don't have a phone case on their phone.
Oh that's good.
That is such a good one.
That's rich.
I honestly think that's borderline rich.
To live on the edge, like with the risk of dropping your phone,
you're like, I can afford to get that fixed.
It doesn't bother me.
0800 dials at M or you can text us on 9696.
What is the sign, the indicator that someone is doing just above average?
They're not rich, but they're doing pretty well.
Maybe they don't have any kids yet, so they have a bit of extra disposable income.
I don't know.
What are the telltale signs that someone is doing above average?
This text has come through, and I feel like it's spot on.
How to know if someone's doing just above average?
They have Apple CarPlay or the equivalent in their car.
That's such a good one.
I always am so impressed because, I mean, it's so good.
It is so good.
And, like, once you've had it, I feel like you can't go back.
Not just handing over the aux cord.
Yeah, exactly.
Let's talk to Humphrey on 0800DIALZM.
G'day, Humphrey.
Hi, Brie. Good, mate. How are you going? Good, exactly. Let's talk to Humphrey on 0800DIALZM. G'day, Humphrey. Hi, Avery.
Good, mate.
How are you going?
Good, thanks.
What do you think it is, Humphrey?
What's the telltale sign for you, mate,
where you're like, oh, that person's doing all right?
Well, you touched on it a little bit just a second ago,
but I thought if you can go for more than a 30-minute drive
without thinking about it.
Wait, thinking about what?
The cost of the petrol.
Oh, I gotcha, gotcha, the cost of petrol.
I was thinking about some, yeah.
If you can just go for a drive for the heck of it sort of thing.
Right, where you're not like, oh, I shouldn't be driving
because this is costing me a fortune.
Do you think it's also people who, because someone on the text machine said it's when people never have their
tank below like a quarter? Yeah, absolutely. Like you're always just filling it up all
the way to the top and you're probably using 95 or 98. You're just going straight past
the 91 and you're just getting the good stuff. I reckon that's probably what it is.
Yeah, thanks for calling in, Humphrey.
Appreciate it.
Someone else texted through on 9696.
Someone's doing just above average when you can afford to buy takeaway coffees
instead of making one in the office pantry.
It's so true.
Or people who consistently will get like a flavour shot.
Yes. Instead of just like a flat white, they're consistently will get like a flavour shot. Yes.
Instead of just like a flat white, they're like, ooh, a caramel one.
It's like a coffee, then you're adding in something that costs more.
And then you get your decaf, then you get your oat,
and then you get, I don't know.
Yeah, totally.
Someone else said reasons to know if someone's doing just above average.
They were able to upgrade to a suzuki swift
sport version of their suzuki i love the suzuki swift sport it's so it's like a go-kart it's fast
and small it's fast and small but i i totally agree with that because it's kind of like you
know you're getting the suzuki swift but you want like the turbo and all the extras in it. So I feel like that's spot on.
Someone else said, if you're buying tasty cheese,
then you're doing just above average.
Someone else said, if they get their laundry done for them.
Ooh la la.
I feel like that's rich.
Yeah, that's rich.
Like that's not above average.
That is rich.
Do you think?
Although it's sometimes, some places are quite affordable.
You drop it off and they do it. I've never done it myself. I actually don't know. I would love it though. So good. Do you think? Although sometimes some places are quite affordable. You drop it off and they do it.
I've never done it myself.
I actually don't know.
I would love it though.
So good.
Do they put them away?
They fold them.
Oh, talk dirty.
And then give them back to you in the basket.
Oh, talk dirty to me.
Tell me more.
Someone else said if someone's doing above average,
it's the person buying pre-packed tomatoes.
So the ones that are coming in the tray in the plastic.
Damn, those things are expensive at the moment.
Not the one with the discount sticker on.
Nah.
One mouldy tomato in the corner.
It's fine.
I'm saving $4.
I always pick that mouldy one out and replace it with a fresh one.
You know, why not?
Yeah, no one's telling me otherwise.
That's the end of the show, guys.
We're all done.
We're dusted.
Get out your punch cards.
You young'uns probably have never had a punch card. you producer i've heard of them but i've seen them in museums
i've never touched one myself though producers have you guys ever had a punch card before
nah yeah mom and dad used to give me a punch card when I stepped out of line. Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
I don't know.
I'm not even going to ask any more questions.
I'm not going to ask any more questions.
I've had a punch card once in my life.
I worked at this big warehouse where, you know,
the mixed salads in the bags?
Oh, yeah.
My job was to pick up the salads and put it into the bags.
No.
You just, like, scoop up the leaves. People actually do that. That was my job for, like, the salads and put it into the bags. You just like scoop up the leaves.
People actually do that.
That was my job for like a year and a half.
I thought a machine would do it.
You should have seen.
Well, technically I'd put it into like a bucket
and then I'd throw the bucket up onto this thing
and it would like place it into the bags, like the right weight.
But my muscles were huge.
Anyway, from just doing this, from lifting these.
Do you know how heavy salad can get?
It was wet, okay?
It was wet and it dragged it down.
Carrots are heavy, yeah.
There was no carrots.
It was just leaves, okay?
But it was heavy.
Anyway, I had a punch card for that job.
Epic.
And it was fun.
Did you smell like salad when you went home?
No, I smelled like the chemicals that they put on that salad.
What do they put on salad?
They put on, they spray this stuff on it to keep it as fresh as long as possible.
Even though everyone just buys a bag of that salad and then it sits in the bottom of their fridge until it goes bad.
It's mushy.
Until you replace it with a new bag of salad and you throw the rotten one out.
You know.
Just cycle.
Who needs salad?
Who needs?
You don't make friends with salad.
Oh, jeez.
Sorry to the vegan in the booth.
Oh, I'm fine.
I'm actually laughing.
All right.
Well, that is the end of the show.
Everyone's laughing.
We're going to end it on a good note.
Hopefully, Clint Roberts will be back tomorrow.
If not, we will have a special guest joining us.
So we'll see you then.
Bye.
Bye.
Bye.
