Kia ora everybody, hello and bula vinaka to our Fijian listeners
Oh, bula bula!
Welcome to the Brian Clint Show
You went to Fiji for Treasure Island one year, didn't you?
I did, one of my favourite things about filming in Fiji was not the weather
No, too humid
It was so humid, or it was pouring rain.
Hot rain though.
And hot rain.
It was the people.
God, they're nice people over there.
They're the most wonderful people.
Lovely humans.
And I miss them.
Yeah, me too.
We haven't been able to go there.
I'd love to go to Fiji right now.
Yeah.
And as a guy with a couple of kids, any holiday is a frigging mission.
But I reckon Fiji's a doable holiday.
You have to go to one of the resorts that has like a kids.
Yeah.
What's it called?
It's like a kids club.
Yeah, kids club.
I'm pretty sure the resort we stayed at for when we filmed Treasure Island
had a kids club.
Yeah.
Get some wonderful Fijian nanny to look after the kids.
Be pretty nice.
While Luce and I go and drink pina coladas in the pool.
Yeah, that'd be lush Fucking COVID
I just want to go to Australia
Yeah, Australia's nice

Oh, okay, this sounds quite big.
So, oh, I had a build-up before that.
Oh, you had a build-up, yeah, yeah.
Well, the build-up's every week I'll get, like, a chart.
Are we number one?
Yeah, we're always number one.
Don't worry about that.
Yeah, it's standard.
And a chart of, like, where we rank.
Do we come out of the 200?
Do we come into the 100?
All that kind of stuff. Starting to rate in Estonia
In Europe

I think, Ben, you've met him.
Maybe.
That'll be it.
His iTunes will still be linked to his Estonian account.
And he just wants to keep up to date.
Well, shout out to all our Estonian listeners.
You know what I think of when I think of Estonia for some reason?
Did you guys ever see that? Estonehen for some reason? Did you guys ever see that?
Estone Hinge.
No.
Did you guys ever see that movie?
It's from the 80s or maybe the early 90s and it's called Encino Man.
No.
Nah.
Bicentennial Man.
And it's where this kid who's in high school starts digging a pool in his backyard
because he wants to be cool and he thinks if he can dig his own pool and have a pool
for the summer, he'll be cool.
Anyway, he starts digging up his backyard and he finds a frozen caveman
in his backyard.
What?
And then he thaws him out.
Yes, I know this plot line.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
What's his name?
He was so attractive when he was younger.
He played George of the Jungle.
Oh, Brendan Fraser.
Brendan Fraser plays the caveman.
It's a great movie.
Yeah, he would be the perfect caveman.
He was really good, yeah.
But great film if you want to see it.
Encino Man, it's called.
And I don't know why I just think of Estonia,
I just think of cavemen.
Estonia, the country in northern Europe,
borders the Baltic Sea and the Gulf of Finland, including more than 1,500 islands in Estonia.
Whoa.
Its diverse terrain spans rocky beaches.
That's what I pictured too.
I think that's the stone part of Estonia.
Oh, yeah.
Old growth forest and many lakes.
Formerly part of the Soviet Union.
Yeah, that's why my friend Mike left and came here. formerly part of the Soviet Union. Yeah, that's why
my friend Mike left and came here.
It's dotted with castles,
churches, hilltop
fortresses. Damn.
And the capital is known
for its preserved old town
museums. Right.
And TV towers. Here's
a question for you guys. If you could go on a holiday
and you can only go to one place
in the world right now,
where would you go?
Holland.
What did you say?
Holland.
I thought you said home.
You've been there already.
This might be your last chance.
It's been a while.
My grandma's turning 90.
I have a theory that every country
is better the second time
because the first time
you're feeling it out,
you're unsure about the language,
the money, the culture, the food. You don't't know where to eat you don't know where to go
second time boom live like a local that's why i want to go back to italy because i reckon i would
do it so much better what about you bray i'll probably go i've got so anywhere from australia
anywhere yeah well yeah that's why i was saying it off the whole like reunion type anywhere i mean
obviously i want to go home and see my family, but anywhere in Europe, because I've never done anywhere in Europe.
I'd probably go to Spain or Greece or Italy, one of those.
I'd go India.
Change it.
Why are you not going to Italy first?
Why is that not number one?
Because I know that I'm eventually going to go there sometime in my life.
No, but you said this might be the last country you ever go to.
No, I'm just saying.
In this hypothetical. Oh, country you ever go to. No, I'm just saying.
In this hypothetical.
Oh, then I'd go to Italy.
I see you doing one.
See where my nonna and nono grew up.
I see you doing one of those six-month type, like, rent a house, live there.
I'd love to go.
Do a bunch of cooking type vibes.
Yeah, I'd love to. You know, people do do that.
Yeah.
It's more common than you'd think. I'd love to go to where my nonna and nonna grew up
and see the pub that they owned in this little village
and do all that kind of thing.
That'd be so cool.
Do you reckon you're too old for a contiki?
Nah, I'm not too old.
No way, nah.
What is the cut-off age?
It's 29, isn't it?
Oh, shit.
No, I think it might be 35.
I'm in.
I would say they do.
And then you go on to the one above it, like the top deck or something.
Like you move into the next age category.
There is a next bracket.
Top deck's a vibe.
You can still do it.
They probably just put all the 30-year-olds together and all the 25.
I hope so.
I really hope so. Okay, Contiki, social travel for 18 to 35-year-olds together and all the 25. I hope so. I really hope so.
Okay, Contiki, social travel for 18 to 35-year-olds.
There you go.
That is such a broad area.
I was going to say, too broad.
Too broad.
Because as a 35-year-old, you don't really want to be traveling with 18.
They need Contiki and they need Contiki Plus.
Yeah.
And what's the cutoff?
18 to 24.
No.
18 to 25 or 26.
Anastasia wants to go younger.
You reckon?
No, guys.
18 to 25, I reckon, and 25.
Anastasia just doesn't want to be the old one.
So she wants to bump the age.
No, but I look at myself and I'm like, I'm 24.
And our ideas of what we'd be getting up to
would be very different still.
To an 18-year-old?
Well, no, to a 35-year-old.
No, so that's why we...
Yeah, no, no, I know, but...
Listen to her.
I don't know, but now I'm different to an 18-year-old.
Listen to the elitists in there not wanting to hang out with you and I, Clint.
Or you, Ben, for that matter.
You're not in her age bracket either.
No, but Ben can come because we need everything together.
There's not three age brackets.
No, there's two.
And I think it's 18.
To 25.
Nah.
Nah.
It's older.
It's older.
I think it's 27.
I think it's 18 to 27.
Yeah.
And then 28 to 35.
Yeah, 28 to 35. I think it's 18 to 27 and then 28 to 35.
I would say that. Because I have no problems hanging out with 28 year olds.
Do you have a problem
hanging out with 24 year olds? But if someone asked me
to hang out with Anastasia, I'd be like
no thank you. I don't
you know, want to catch COVID.
Is that joke on the show yet?
Anastasia is the super spreader
Or at least will be
That's being avoided
Is it?
This is fine
No but it's a conversation
Where we were all talking
About our summers
And we were being realistic
That Anastasia would have been
The most likely person to catch it
Because you were getting around
She was oozing the booze
Okay
You might say that about me
With COVID
But I know for sure
Clint was probably, when he was my age, spreading
different things.
Gonorrhea.
I was not, thank you very much.
You were spreading hugs and kisses.
I was spreading positivity and joy.
Chlamydia.
You can't start there.
It's obviously a joke, Ben.
Don't say that, because now it sounds like it could be
it does yeah it's like don't say that you can't say that on here it's too realistic you can't
say that oh okay um you know where else i'd love to go on a holiday uranus squirtland
oh yeah you're sc Scottish, aren't you?
My dog's squirtle.
Squirtish?
I'm Scottish.
Are you Scottish?
Yeah.
I probably am a bit Scottish because my dad's European.
Yeah, hot.
That's not how it works.
I've had a bit of Scottish in me before.
End it now.
You had someone's bagpipe.
I called him Lasse.
No, she had a big cat.
No. Let's end it. I'm him Lasse. No, she had a big cat, no.
No, she didn't.
I'm Clint Roberts.
Had a bit of a smug dick.
Hi, everybody.
Enjoy the podcast.
Afternoon, everybody.
Welcome to the show.
It's Bree and Clint.
Good afternoon, guys. Happy hump day, Leshko. Good attitude, everybody. Welcome to the show. It's Bree and Clem. Good afternoon, guys. Happy hump day, Leshko.
Good attitude, mate. That's nice.
I'm here for it. First week back.
Yeah.
I mean, talk to me four weeks in.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It'll be a different team.
Nah, you're still riding high. I'm still riding high. It's good.
Yeah, it's good.
Gotta ride these vibes.
I love it.
Until at least Thursday.
We've both had a bit of a chaotic morning, especially you.
You've had bloody stuff
going on everywhere. I'm surprised you're
even here. I know, I was going to chuck a sickie, but
then I thought three days in, not a good look.
Plus, I need those days for when I get
Omicron. I was going to say, chucking a
sickie these days
is probably not the same as it was
a couple of years ago. I think it's quite a good time
to chuck a sick sticky though because...
More believable.
Well, you might have to do 24 days of managed isolation, you know?
I get a cold and Ross is like, don't come in until February.
For 24 days.
Yeah, yeah, that sounds lovely.
Anyway, no, no, we're professionals and we're both here
and we are ready to party, everybody.
I've got something on the show after 4 o'clock.
I know that is a very long tease, but just after 4 o'clock,
I have something that is one of the best pieces of audio I've heard all year.
Really?
Slash last year even.
Do I know about this?
You don't know about it.
It's even a surprise for you.
Okay.
The producers got to hear it early, and I've never seen them laugh so hard in my life. Really? It's even a surprise for you. Okay. The producers got to hear it early and I've
never seen them laugh so hard in my life.
Really? It's so good. My birthday
is coming up. Did you finally get me that message from
Dan Carter? Oh, it's
a message. Yeah.
You'll have to stick around.
Okay. Well, that's coming up. Very good. When? Just after

No, the farmer.
The one that does the...
Oh, the farmer, sorry.
Yeah, the farmer.
Yeah, I follow you and I think you follow me.
Yeah, I know.
I had to harass you on the radio to get a follow back.
Yeah, I do recall you, Wesley, and I remember I followed you

Very funny.

Nice work.
You've got two points.

Two too many.
The first one was good.

You haven't seen them, so you don't get to comment.
No, but it's fun to throw shade at stuff you don't understand.
Well, you're loving the reboot.
I love the reboot.
I'm going to have to watch the movie.
Now you need to go back and watch the actual show, which is even better.
All right, two to Alice.

Me too, Wes.
Who wrote this question?
Me too.
We did.
Hey, Alice, you're the champ.

Thank you so much.
Killed it.
Brie and Clint.
Zed and Br Bree and Clint. Zin in Bree and Clint.
That's Naked and May Muller.
It's called Bitter Days.
Should be in your DMs, Ben.
Sorry, I was just having an off-air conversation.
Well, whatever you can say to Ben, you can say in front of us.
Well, that's why I said it.
Okay.
Yeah.
I was just saying I sent him a DM about some theme music
I want for this chat we're about to have.
Okay, sure.
Because I want to talk themed weddings.
Are you having one?
Maybe.
What would be the theme for your wedding?
Booze.
Regret.
Regret.
Not a great theme for a wedding, regret, is it?
I reckon it'd be country themed maybe.
Oh, no.
Grow up.
Wouldn't mind a bit of that.
Everyone has to wear denim.
What's that got to do with your partner, though?
Yeah.
It has to be a theme for both of you and she's a sotty truck.
Yeah, I'll get back to that.
Doctors and nurses?
What has that got to do with me?
You get to see the doctor every now and then and she's a nurse.
Well, this might have a few ideas in it because there's a couple,
a story about a couple who it's ended in a fight
when one of them has said they really want a particular type of theme
for the wedding.
Okay.
And they're very set on the theme.
And the theme that the one person wants is Titanic themed.
A Titanic themed wedding?
Yes.
So it's two grooms.
One of the grooms is super keen on having a Titanic themed wedding.
He's obsessed with the Titanic movie.
Yeah.
So he has said he wants...
It's a terrible metaphor for a relationship, by the way.
But yeah, go on.
He wants to decorate an old hall like the Titanic dining room
with absolutely everything themed around the Titanic or the 1910s.
He wants an iceberg wedding cake.
He also wants his fiancée and him to do their first dance to Celine Dion.
Right.
And then what else?
You could have violin players.
Yeah, he wants violin players.
He also wants them to dress up as, one of them dresses up as Jack
and the other one dresses up as a male version of Rose.
Oh, a male version of Rose.
Well, they're two grooms.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
What would a male version of Rose because obviously... Oh, a male version of Rose. Well, they're two grooms. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And...
What would a male version of Rose look like?
Probably like a proper rich...
Right, okay.
You know how Jack was like, you know, from the...
Third class.
Third class and Rose was from the upper class.
Right, okay.
Anyway, it's ended in an argument because...
One of them could draw the other one nude.
That'd be a fun part of the wedding too.
No, that could be on the Bucks tonight.
That'd be on the Bucks tonight.
Anyway, it's ended in an argument because the other one does not like the Titanic,
doesn't like the film and doesn't want a Titanic-themed wedding.
No, and that's what I was saying to you before.
It has to be appropriate for both of you.
Well, he said he'd compromise and
he wouldn't mind some Titanic references
here and there
but the other one broke down in tears and said
this has been my dream. I can tell which
one is the dramatic one in the relationship.
This has been my dream forever and I want
it.
So, I think
and this is my
sort of ethos,
my mantra when it comes to relationships.
If your partner wants it badly and you don't really care,
just give them what they want.
Like unless the other partner really wants a certain type of wedding,
which it doesn't sound like he does.
That's different.
Then just let them have it.
What do you care?
It kind of sounds fun.
It does sound fun.
And if he's so, like, if he's so set on it, and it's obviously been a dream of his,
I agree with you, just give it to him.
Just give it to him.
Make him happy.
You know?
Is it going to hurt you?
Unless you wanted, I don't know, like a Pixar-themed wedding.
I don't know.
You could compromise, I guess, and do another.
Obviously, he's a Leonardo DiCaprio fan.
Could you do other Leonardo DiCaprio-themed movies?
You could have a Great Gatsby wedding.
A Wolf of Wall Street.
Wolf of Wall Street wedding would be fun.
That would be a fun wedding.
Yeah.
You know, just do a bit of everything.
Yeah.
It got me thinking though, because a themed wedding is quite unusual.
I've never been to a themed wedding.
I've never been to a themed wedding either.
I'd really want to go to a themed wedding.
Yes.
I know I've heard of Harry Potter weddings going down.
A Harry Potter one? Yes.
I've also heard of a
Avatar wedding.
Not the blue Avatar. The other
the last airbender
Avatar. Oh, gotcha. You know that one?
I've heard of an Avatar themed wedding
which is so niche but
it's their wedding so they went for it. What did they do?
I wonder what they did in the vows for the Harry Potter one.
Were they like, you may now touch wands?
You know?
True.
It'd be so much fun to have.
I thought we could ask people this afternoon on 0800DIALZM,
have they been to a themed wedding or did they have their own themed wedding?
Did you have a themed wedding, yeah.
Or did you hear of someone having a themed wedding and what was it?
Yeah, totally.
I'd love to hear about it.
Okay, you can call us on 0800 DIAL ZM
or you can text us on 9696 and we'll get your story on as well.
Have you been to or hosted a themed wedding before?
Can't wait for these.
Yeah.
This afternoon we're discussing themed weddings.
After a couple had a big disagreement
when one of them wanted to have a full Titanic-themed wedding,
the other one said,
I don't like the Titanic, we're not doing that.
Yeah.
Then the other one chucked a tantrum and said,
this is my dream.
Why do you hate me?
I'm obviously marrying the wrong person.
Just give me the wedding.
And just like the Titanic, their relationship was sunk.
Yep.
And one ended up on a big door floating in the ocean.
Yep.
And one of them froze to death.
So we want to know, have you had or attended a themed wedding before?
Because they sound fun, but are they, you know,
there's a lot of Edmund involved as well.
I'm so excited to hear about these because you just don't really hear about them.
So let's get Kira on.
Hi, Kira.
Hi.
Now, before we were talking about a Harry Potter themed wedding, and was it your wedding or did you attend a Harry Potter themed wedding?
I know my sister had a Harry Potter themed wedding.
Did she? She did. Who was she from Harry Potter themed wedding? I know my sister had a Harry Potter themed wedding. Did she?
Yes, she did.
Who was she
from Harry Potter?
They weren't like
dressed up or anything.
She just had
like all of the decorations
and stuff
and the cape
was Harry Potter.
Oh, see, I don't like that.
Right.
A fake owl and stuff.
So she didn't go in like
Hogwarts robes
or anything to her wedding?
No, but she had like
Deathly Hallows
like hair, like in her hair. Oh yeah, okay. Also but she had like deathly hallows like hair,
like in her hair.
Oh yeah, okay.
Also, she had little touches here and there.
Did they serve butterbeer?
No, it was like a,
it was kind of a Harry Potter-y grazing table moment.
Oh, okay.
Oh, delightful.
Was there like wizard stuff in their vows?
No, not really.
I don't think he was super into Harry Potter,
so he just kind of let her be all good decorating.
Please tell me there was a game of Quidditch
at the wedding reception.
Oh, I so wish, but my brothers would have absolutely ruined that.
Oh, they'd go too hard.
Yeah, right.
Okay, interesting.
It sounds like they've gone 50-50 on the theme there.
It's tasteful.
Yeah.
But you get your point across.
But you still get to wear a nice dress.
Thanks, Cara.
Let's get Lee on.
Kia ora, Lee.
Hi, Lee.
Hi, how are you going?
Good, thanks.
Was it your wedding or did you attend?
Oh, it was yours.
Cool.
What was the theme?
Well, it was our wedding, but it was also my now husband's 50th birthday.
Okay.
Wait, so you wrapped your wedding and your husband's 50th into the same day?
Yes, but none of our guests knew.
Okay.
They were coming.
So we had a casino royale.
We had gambling tables, DJ, all that sort of stuff.
He got all dressed up and we said to our guests,
come as Black Pie After Five or one of your favourite James Bond characters.
And everyone really threw themselves into it.
So they all rocked up.
It was the 50th.
We did the whole birthday to him first and then let everyone kind of calm down 15 minutes later.
And then my husband got up and said, by the way, we're getting hitched.
And the war was heard through the whole place.
It was amazing.
That's fantastic.
I love that, Lee, because the theme is obviously for the night,
gambling, which is pretty much marriage.
It's a gamble.
Funnily enough, when we were saying our vows,
I dressed the room up with cut-out girls, you know,
with the guns out and, you know, all this kind of stuff.
It looked really cool.
Where we ended up standing, and it was not planned,
it was completely coincidental,
we had two girls either side with guns pointed at our heads and everyone laughed. It was completely coincidental. We had two girls on the side with guns pointed at our heads,
and everyone laughed.
It was pitch in the front.
Like you were doing it against your own will.
I love that.
Cool, a James Bond-themed wedding.
A few people on the text machine,
someone said,
my wedding last year was Star Wars-themed,
and we had stormtroopers, R2-D2, and the whole thing.
That's pretty cool.
That's neat, yeah.
Star Wars-themed. Chewbac. That's pretty cool. It's neat, yeah. Star Wars theme.
Chewbacca marries you guys.
Someone else said,
Friends in the UK had a great British bake-off theme wedding.
Love that.
The groom was dressed as Mary Berry, one of the hosts.
Really?
I love that.
Donna's here as well.
Hey, Donna.
Hi, Donna.
Hi.
Did you have a themed wedding?
No, I didn't, but I attended a magnificent one.
Oh, tell us about it, Donna.
It was totally medieval themed.
They held it up in the hills, right up in the hills at Castle Hill in South Island.
The groom and his groomsmen had chainmail vests made and wore those.
They bought over, because most of them came from Australia,
they bought over big swords.
Before the wedding ceremony itself, they had a mock battle scene
where they carried off the maiden and then he married her.
Oh, my God. Tell me, Donna.
All the guests were dressed up.
Did the bride have a chastity belt?
I don't know, but he must have had the key.
There we go.
I love that.
That sounds like a lot of fun.
Donna, that was so good.
I love that.
That sounds like they went all out.
They had a full battle scene.
Yeah, and chain mail.
Can you imagine?
Yeah.
Sounds like a Saturday night at Family Bar, to be honest.
Big swords and chain mail.
Bree and Clint from iHeartRadio.
This is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy.
The biggest story in entertainment yesterday was the guy from Blur and the Gorillaz
accusing Taylor Swift of not writing her songs. She
bit back in a big way and called
him out after that. Well, Dean, he
has since responded, hasn't he?
He has actually. He responded to her on Twitter.
The best place to do that because, you know, it's been
retweeted like 50,000 times.
It's what he said. These are his words to Taylor Swift.
I totally agree with you.
I had a conversation about songwriting and it
sadly was reduced to clickbait.
I apologise unreservedly and unconditionally.
The last thing I want to do is discredit your songwriting.
I hope you understand, Damon.
So I can't, to be honest, you know,
when I read the full like transcript of what he had discussed,
I kind of think I know what he means.
Like he, I don't know, I think there was more to it than the headline,
which was she doesn't write her own music. I don't know.
Yeah, but did he say it or didn't he say it?
He said it.
He said it. He said, what did he say?
His exact words, I can't remember his exact words,
but basically he was like,
co-writing's not really the same thing.
It's not the same thing as songwriting. That was
a bit of a low blow. I don't know.
He's backpedalling, I guess. So he might have kind of, he's backfiddling, I guess.
So he might have been
taken out of context,
but either way,
he has apologised unreservedly.
That's what matters, right?
I get where he's coming from
in the sense of
they do do that to people
where they take one tiny thing
and they can make it sound way worse.
But even, I mean,
out of context saying that,
oh, it still doesn't sound good. It still doesn't sound good.
It still doesn't sound great.
And I think he realised that once it went public.
Either way, the Swifties have already cancelled him.
Yeah, he's gone.
Yeah.
Well, even Jack Antonoff, from Fun, who produced a couple of Taylor's albums,
came out and had a go at him.
And he said, I've never met Damon and he's never been to my studio
where we record Taylor's album,
where she brings the songs that she has written
and yet somehow he knows more about her songwriting than I do.
Interesting.
Well, there you go.
That's the latest on the shade being thrown at Taylor Swift.
Don't bother because she has the most powerful fans in the world.
She really does.
They'll get you.
It's Tim McCarthy,
our Hollywood correspondent.
Brie and Clint.
You know your boy Clint
is always on that hustle, right, Brie?
Yeah, especially.
Always on my grind.
I know when he's about to talk some crap
because he talks about himself in the third person.
There's one thing you know about me,
hustlers be hustling, right?
I grind from sunup to sundown.
Get that money.
That's my motto.
That's what I think of when I think of you.
I've got that tattooed in the small of my back.
Yeah.
I have a new money-making venture that I launched over summer,
and it's going okay.
It's going okay.
I've got two passions.
One, hustling, and two, minimising. Those are
my two great passions. I like to get
rid of clutter. And I think this
business venture does both,
if it works. I've seen
your sleep out, and the last thing I would
think is you like to minimise, because the amount
of crap. That's the exact room
I'm trying to minimise. Well, it never seems
to minimise. Think of me like
Mighty Ape
or The Market or one of those big online
retailers. That's my warehouse.
That's where I keep my stock. I
have decided that the time has come
for me to sell
off my DVD collection.
Oh yeah. I mean,
you know what's interesting though?
Is it the time?
It is absolutely the time. Is it the time though? Why? Why would it possibly Is it the time? It is absolutely the time.
Is it the time though?
Why would it possibly not be the time?
I had this thought the other day where I was like, oh my God,
everything is on the internet now including movies, TV shows,
all that stuff.
If we go into a zombie apocalypse.
Yeah.
Slash any apocalypse type situation.
Yeah.
You're not going to be able to watch anything.
That has crossed my mind.
You need to keep some DVDs.
I'm telling you, I'm ready to start buying some.
Well, come on.
Have you come to the right place?
Because I've got lots to get rid of.
I don't know if the movies you like will be the ones I like.
I'm even parting with my Blu-rays.
I've decided that the stuff you can stream, the quality is good enough.
Oh, Blu-ray was never my thing.
You can get rid of those.
I have successfully sold two DVDs this summer.
Oh, look out.
I've listed seven and I've successfully sold two.
What ones have you listed?
I listed a copy of Entourage Season 3 on Blu-ray.
That is such a random DVD.
I thought there might be some super fans out there that want the collection.
No, it didn't sell.
Yeah, I'm not surprised by that.
I listed a copy of Superbad.
Oh, yeah.
I was interested.
It's a great film.
I've listed a bunch of stuff.
Do you want to hear my successes that I've managed to sell?
So I managed to sell the box set of Steven Spielberg's Band of Brothers.
Yeah, my mum's got two box sets for some reason.
I know.
Maybe she brought yours as well.
Epic, I think I paid like maybe 200 bucks for this box set.
Yeah, they're quite expensive, those big box sets.
Every episode of the greatest World War II series ever made.
You don't have to sell it to us. You've already
sold it. I've already sold it, yeah. I got
a whopping $15 for that.
Look out.
You know what I always said about
DVDs back in the day when I
was buying my collection? These
will definitely hold their value.
Go up in value, yeah.
I also sold a Pearl Jam DVD for $5.
A Pearl Jam DVD?
Someone bought it.
Someone bought it.
Random.
That's not the one I thought that would have went.
So the profit margin is not huge, but volume.
God, if you're a millennial, the volume of DVDs that either you
or your parents have at your house is colossal.
So if you can sell all of them for $5 each,
you could make, I don't know, I could make upwards of $145.
$150.
I think you're at the wrong time.
I honestly do.
Because remember a few years ago,
we started talking about how all these VHSs started to, you know,
become really rare.
Yeah.
And everyone was hunting for these certain type of VHS tapes.
Collectibles, yeah.
And they became like hundreds of thousands of dollars people were paying.
Hundreds of thousands of dollars?
Okay, I might have exaggerated a bit.
I think you have.
No, there was a few certain Disney ones.
Yeah, I get it.
I know.
But that's going to be 20 years before a DVD is collectible.
I need to minimise now.
Well, I mean, how big's your collection?
Like...
Because judging from how many movies that you've actually seen,
which is very few, I'm not thinking it's a very big collection.
That's the best bit about this business venture, Brie.
Some of these DVDs have never been watched.
No brand new condition.
Brie and Clint.
This is very enjoyable.
Right.
You don't know what we're about to listen to,
but the producers have heard a sneak peek
and they got a lot of enjoyment out of it.
Producer Anastasia can't stop smiling about it.
Is it good?
It's very good.
Yeah, okay.
I would arguably say the funny, yeah, I love this.
So last week, right, this is, I only discovered this last week.
Yeah.
And I said it involves someone that we
all know. Sure. So that person
that it involves is
my dad. Oh, okay. Right? Big Steve.
Oh my God, instant
wave of relief that it's not me. It's not
you. It's not you. You can relax. I was going,
what have I done? What have I seen? This is just
for your enjoyment. Right, okay. So my dad
background, if you've never heard our show
before, lives in country Queensland. He's a farmer. He's a country lad, right? Yeah, he's a good looking
man too. Used to be a male model. No, he didn't know it. Okay, maybe for a tiny bit. He did
underwear catalogue. He did catwalk, that's it. And catalogue, didn't he? And catalogue,
okay, and catalogue. Anyway, last week I needed to call my dad for something, so
I was actually driving in my car and I
said, hey Siri, call
dad. Anyway, so the phone started
ringing. I was waiting for my dad to pick
up. Next minute,
he doesn't pick up and I get my dad's
voicemail. Okay.
But it wasn't my dad's
usual voicemail.
Sure. My dad has recorded a new, and I'm going to call it jazzy voicemail.
Oh, it's always jarring when someone changes their voicemail, eh?
I didn't even recognise my dad in this voicemail,
so I just want you to brace yourself and I promise you this is 100% my dad
who is Australian and his new voicemail.
Well, howdy, Pilgrim.
Steve here.
Sorry I missed your call.
I'll give you a ring back as soon as I can.
See you, partner.
What the hell is that?
Where does that come from?
I have no idea.
I want to call my dad right now because I've been holding on to this for a week.
Yeah.
And I've talked to him a few times and I haven't brought it up because I wanted to confront him on the radio this afternoon.
Yeah.
Because that is weird AF.
That's weird.
Do you think he was drunk?
I don't know.
Do you think he did it on like New Year's Eve or something?
And your mum put him up to it?
Yeah, maybe.
He drew a card and looked like...
He's like, this is going to be a good idea.
Cowboy.
Okay, are we putting...
Are we getting him through?
Producer Ben is just getting him on the phone right now.
Yeah, we've got him.
Okay, let's just play it cool.
I'm just going to confront him.
G'day, Dad.
Hello, sweetheart.
How are you?
Good, mate. Clint's here as well
Howdy partner
Hello Clint, how are you my friend?
I'm good, how are you?
Yeah great, thank you
Dad, look I got you on the show this afternoon
You don't know what we're getting you on the show for this afternoon do you?
No and I'm a bit concerned but anyway let's go
No clue, have you made any changes recently to anything in your life
that you think I'd want to talk to you about?
Should we play?
Any major purchases?
Have you inherited a large horse recently maybe?
A new accent?
Inherited a what?
Sorry?
Nothing.
Look, I think we should just play you a piece of audio to jog your memory.
What do you think about that?
Audio.
Do you recognise this person?
Well, howdy, pilgrim.
Steve here.
Sorry I missed your call.
I'll give you a ring back as soon as I can.
See you, partner.
We like it.
First of all, we like it.
We like it.
No, I love it.
What's wrong with that?
Well, first of all, it's only slight,
but I think you've put on a slight accent.
No, that's just my spaghetti accent.
That's just spaghetti western.
What the hell is going on?
I got your voicemail last week and I almost didn't recognise you.
I was like, who the hell is this?
Well, I want people to remember my voicemail.
So I thought that'll work.
Oh, they'll remember your voicemail.
Is that the whole reason?
Is that the whole backstory behind that?
To be honest, my voicemail was so terrible.
And I thought, what can I do to make it even more terrible?
So I did that.
Well, mission accomplished.
Oh, Dad, you've hit that point in your life
where you've just given up, haven't you?
Yeah, given up.
That's it, Dad.
No, we love it.
I love it, Dad.
Good one, Big Steve.
Yee-haw!
Zed and Brie and Clint.
Zed and Brie and Clint.
That's Lato featuring Big Steve.
Well, howdy, pilgrim.
I love that isolated piece of audio.
He's so cute, isn't he?
He's a good man, yeah.
This is, not that I don't want you to feel good, you know,
not that I don't want you to be happy,
but this really feels like one of those stories where you're going to go, ha, I told you so.
You hate those ones for me, eh?
Just because you've been banging on about this ever since I met you.
A long time.
And this kind of confirms what you've been saying.
It does.
So I'll just give you the headline, okay?
Okay. New Zealanders currently have $267 million left on unspent gift cards.
What have I been saying for all these years?
A gift card is a horrible present.
We have $267 million that we've given each other on gift cards
that no one has bothered to use.
That's so much money.
It's so much money.
And it's good for the retailers because...
They get to keep it.
They get money.
It's like double money.
They never had to give out the product.
But I'll just...
It kind of confirms that gift cards...
I love a gift card.
I love a gift card, but perhaps they're not
the best gift. Terrible gift.
If you know someone's not likely to spend
it, you know, you kind of have to figure out who gift card
people are. Me, give me a gift card. You,
we know. I don't
want a gift card. I'll give you some stats because these
are quite shocking. So there's been
a survey done by a group called Finder
and they found that a third of New Zealanders
have at least one unused
gift card in their wallet. Not surprised.
Consumer New Zealand did a
survey and found that one in five
gift cards
expired
before its full value was redeemed.
What do I always say? So money down the drain.
I hate a gift card that expires.
They all expire.
I hate it. They all do. No, they don't. Yes. No, do they? Show me card that expires. They all expire. I hate it. They all do.
No, they don't.
Yes.
No, do they?
Show me one that doesn't.
Give me at least two years to spend it.
That's still an expiry.
They found that men had more money on average on unused gift cards than women.
Yeah.
$90 was the average amount of gift card money men have in their wallet.
Okay.
And $54 for women.
Okay.
So, yeah, that's a big difference.
And who are the people who are most likely to have unused gift cards?
What generation?
Do you want to have a guess?
Millennials.
The generation with the most money left on their unused gift cards.
Surprising, too, because they're all so broke.
Millennials and Gen Zs.
Yeah, I think so.
I would have thought millennials were out there straight away, you know?
No, we're not.
We hate gift cards.
If you could use the money on your gift card to put towards your first house,
then we'd empty our gift cards.
That's a different story.
Yeah, but you can't.
I thought as an experiment, we would go through your wallet
and see how many unused gift cards there are.
This is going to be so bad.
I've just spent the last 10 minutes going through my wallet
because I've got so much crap.
And you've got a very big wallet too.
I do.
Yeah.
Okay.
Should we get started?
Yeah.
List them off.
All right.
The first one is a Vivo hair and beauty gift card.
Yeah.
It doesn't say how much is on it.
Right.
And it doesn't have an expiry date on it.
Then it can't expire.
Valid for 12 months from the date of issue.
So that's gone.
Okay, that's expired.
Ooh, a Nando's gift card.
How do you have a Nando's gift card?
How have you not spent that?
Date of issue, 20th of the 11th, 2020.
It's got $100 on here.
Expires 24 months from the date of issue. That one's still good.
That one's still good. Okay, good. Oh, that one's a good
find. This one here is
a Mecca gift card that I
received. I was there when you received that. I received
this at a Christmas party a couple of years ago.
You got it at the ZM 2020
Christmas party. It's a gift card for
$30. Yeah. To Mecca.
That's a lot, Bob. And date
of purchase, the 10th of the
12th, 2020.
I'm just seeing if it
expires.
Don't know. I'd have to
look further into that one. That's a maybe.
That's a maybe. Then I've got
a Prezi card here.
Those don't expire. Doesn't say how much is on it.
So I'd have to look into that. That's dodgy.
I've got another Prezi card.
This one did have 500 bucks on it.
Whoa.
Was that for some under-the-table cash jobs you were doing?
That was under-the-table cash that I did earlier.
This is a Peter Alexander gift card that's got, I think, like $73 on it
because I had to take some stuff back.
How much is a pair of Peter Alexander pyjamas?
You probably pay 100 bucks all up for shorts and is a pair of Peter Alexander pyjamas? You probably pay
$100 all up for
shorts and a shirt. $100 pyjamas?
Yeah. So that one,
that's almost a set. That's 12 months
from the date of issue, so that one's still good.
Keep that one. And a JB Hi-Fi
card, $100.
Issue of date 17th, 11th,
2020. And is it
expires 24 months.
So that one's still good to go.
So that one's still good.
So that's the grand total of around nine gift cards that you're sitting on.
Yeah.
Technically, you're rich.
You're just too lazy to go and realise any of the value that you've got.
So this is why I don't want gift cards,
because it makes me realise how lazy I am.
And unorganised.
Don't spend your gift cards, New Zealand.
Maybe I should spend the next couple of days spending this.
Yeah, set yourself a goal.
Spend money.
This is interesting.
You said to me on Monday when we got back together
after our big break that you were looking at making
a major house purchase.
There's a couple purchases I'm looking to make at the moment.
Okay.
I'm looking at getting a Dyson for the first time in my life. Oh, wow.
I've never had one. Have you never owned a Dyson?
I've never owned one. I've got a Samsung
same thing, cordless vacuum. Very similar.
Have you ever owned a cordless vacuum cleaner? Never.
Oh my God. Call me
an over 30s person, but
it will change your life. A vacuum cleaner
that you can just pick up and just
suck whatever you want up
instantly. I mean, how good.
How good.
It's a, you know, versatile sucker, as my mum says.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It makes vacuuming easy.
You know what she said to me?
Because my mum and dad, when they built their new house that they're currently in,
they decided they would get a Dyson.
Yeah.
One that they can move around this house because it's quite like a large floor plan.
Anyway, my mum said to me, she's like, you wouldn't believe it.
She's like, I've bought this Dyson vacuum cleaner.
Yeah.
And your father, who's never vacuumed in his life, vacuums every day.
It does make it fun.
She's like, it's a miracle.
The issue is that if you've got a big house,
they never make it around the whole house.
These are very good problems to have. My mum says she does the carpet areas
with one battery life
and then the wood floors.
Let's you have a break from vacuuming.
Yeah, why not?
All right, so you're looking at getting
a cordless vacuum cleaner,
very grown up.
Yes.
What's the other house purchase
you're trying to get?
An air fryer.
Oh, get on board.
I'm also looking at,
I'm very on board.
I'm just, you Oh, get on board. I'm also looking at. I'm very on board. I'm just doing my research.
This sounds over the top, but it will change your life.
Yeah, I know it will.
So these are all going to change my life.
And then the last one, I've kind of fell into this
when I was looking at Dyson's and stuff,
was a robot vacuum cleaner slash mop.
What do you need a robot vacuum cleaner for if you're getting an actual vacuum cleaner?
Well, then I would have to vacuum way less.
Right.
So you want to get a robot going around vacuuming.
Absolutely.
And then you'll do some extra vacuuming on top.
You're a pet owner.
You know what it's like.
Yeah, true.
If you've got, you know, some, a little bit of help that's just doing a little bit here
Robot vacuum cleaners are so expensive.
Have you looked at how much they cost? They're very
expensive. You can get cheaper ones
but there's some that are very
fancy. Yeah. But you
know that I've got PTSD from
robot vacuum cleaners. Why?
From the last experience I had with one.
Why? Haven't I told you this
story? Have you? When I was really
young. Did it suck up a pair of your dirty knickers?
No, that would have been the least of my worries. I wish it did that. So when I was quite young,
I was in my early twenties and I was looking for some extra pocket money here and there. My auntie,
my mum's sister, who was like, she keeps a really nice household. It is spotless,
very unlike my mum. They're very polar opposite so she keeps a
beautiful house and she said to me oh can you come around and house sit my house for me yeah over the
weekend because she had two dogs at the time and i was like that sounds like heaven because i was
living in a flat with like six people yes i was like great i'd love to do that she's like all you
have to do is walk the dogs and feed them and that's it anyway so i've went over to her house and she's like oh um here's this this and this and that anyway they had a robot
vacuum cleaner and this was like 10 years ago right or how however long it was and i'd never
seen one before i was like that's amazing anyway i went out one day and i left the dogs inside
because that's what she told me to do and i I went out for the day, probably three or four hours,
which the dogs were fine.
They'd been walked.
And I came back and I'm not joking, I opened the front door
and I was just hit in the face with the smell of poo.
Oh.
Like it was like, and I was like, oh, my God.
That hot dog shit smell.
I was like, the dogs have had diarrhoea.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Turns out the dogs hadn't had diarrhoea.
They'd done, I think it was one poo.
I think it was a singular poo.
Yeah.
They'd done a singular poo inside and then the robot vacuum cleaner
has picked up that poo and it has dragged it across carpet,
across tiles, into the bathroom.
It was literally in every crevice of this house. dragged it across carpet, across tiles, into the bathroom.
It was literally in every crevice of this house.
Yeah.
It was everywhere.
And I was like, I'm never, ever going to be allowed to come back here and I'm never going to get a robot vacuum cleaner,
but I think I'm over it now.
No, you know what the difference is?
What?
You're getting the one with the mop.
So if it does that, it can go around and clean up after itself.
Look, this time yesterday, we spoke about a bet that involved James Bond.
If you weren't here, I'll recap what happened.
Look, if you've listened to our show,
you'd know that there was a bet made a few years ago
where Clint's like,
oh, the Friends cast are definitely getting back together
and they're doing a reboot of the whole show.
And I said, no, there's no way.
And we made a bet and you ended up eating cat food.
That was the deal.
I paid my juice.
You paid your juice.
Anyway, I'm a new woman in 2022
and there was some stuff flying around at the end of last year where you
were trying to make these bets with me
because I kept saying to you that I thought
Idris Elba should be the next James
Bond and you were like, he's too old
he's not good enough. No, I
just said he was too old. That's the only criticism
I had. He's got a crappy accent. No, not
what I said. Anyway, you then tried
to remake the bet of
whoever's wrong eats cat food.
Yeah, I did do that, yeah.
And I, last year, I was tired, I wasn't up for it, and I declined the bet.
I've come back with new fresh eyes on the situation in 2022,
and I thought, why not?
I mean, what's the worst that can happen?
You eat cat food, big deal.
Do you want to go for the cat food?
But I'm going to back myself. Do you want
to do the cat food? Because I reckon
Idris Elba, because an article
came out yesterday. We talked about it
where the big 007
bosses are saying he's definitely
in the conversation. You're talking a big
game like you're brave
and you're bold. You saw that he's
now the odds on favourite to become
James Bond so you're like time to place that he's now the odds-on favourite to become James Bond, so you're like, time to place this.
The article was on Uni, lad.
It's not a reputable article.
If you want to bet a tasty meal of cat food on this,
I'll go in on it again.
So this was the deal I put to you yesterday.
Yeah.
Because I said, look, let's make it fair.
Yeah.
You pick someone who you think is going to be the next Bond. Yeah. Because I said, look, let's make it fair. Yeah.
You pick someone who you think is going to be the next Bond.
Yes.
I pick someone who's going to be the next Bond.
Yes.
And if the other one gets it right, the other person eats cat food.
Yes.
Right?
But if neither of us get it right, no one eats cat food?
Or if neither of us get it right, do we eat cat food together?
Well, see, this is the part that we haven't decided on.
Do you want to defer to an impartial party?
Yeah, let's go to an impartial party.
So, Ben, we're agreed that if one of us gets it right,
the other one eats cat food.
Yep, I've got that.
If we're both wrong, no one eats cat food or we both eat cat food?
I think no one.
There's too many options.
It's too far.
You know what I think?
Could be anyone.
Can I put something on the table?
We're all just, I mean, producer Anastasia,
do you have any ideas of what could happen if we're both wrong?
Which very much is probably the most likely thing to happen.
Well, now that you've brought Ben into this,
I mean, he could be the... What he eats cat food.
If we're both wrong, Ben eats cat food.
Well, that's ridiculous.
Ben doesn't want to be a part of that.
What if...
Yeah.
If we're both wrong, let's do something really 007.
Right.
We go up to the casino.
We shoot each other.
Whoa.
We get out of...
No, we go out to the casino.
You put $250 of your own money.
I put $250 of my own money. I put $250 of my own money.
We flip a coin to see who gets black, who gets red.
Yeah.
And we put it all on red, all on black.
If we both are wrong.
But why wouldn't we just give each other...
Oh, if we're both wrong.
We're both wrong.
Right, right, right.
So there's a chance that one of us...
Makes $500.
Exactly. And the other one will lose one of us... Makes $500. Exactly.
And the other one will lose $250 if we're both wrong.
Okay, deal.
Yeah, let's do it.
Done.
You can record that one.
That's a deal.
Wait, no, wait.
You haven't picked your person.
I've got my bond.
Yeah.
So your bond is Idris Elba?
Yeah.
My bond...
Who?
Is Bane himself Tom Hardy.
That's who I'm picking as the next Bond.
What can we run with that? I could suggest
to him breaking up his father's company
is a screw you to the old man.
That is a good pick. He's very sexy, he's very
suave. Oh, but we've seen
it before, haven't we?
We've seen it all before. Tom
Hardy, fantastic actor.
I think we need to move with the times, 007.
Idris Elba for the next Bond.
Well, stand by, everybody.
If anybody sees a headline that confirms who the next James Bond is,
please let us know as soon as possible.
It's got to be soon.
Unless it's Idris Elba.
And if that's the case...
Send it to me.
Hold off telling us...
So I can celebrate.
...as long as humanly possible.
You know, I thought 2022 would be a new year, new us, new internet,
but you wouldn't believe it.
Google's down.
Google, are you down, down, down, down, down, down, down?
What the hell?
I think Google's actually...
God, they still haven't fixed Google.
I tell you.
If they could, they should have bloody fixed it.
This is your chance to be crowned the greatest Googler of the week.
All you've got to do is out-Google Ben, Anastasia and I.
That's right.
It seems pretty simple, but there is a few guns in here.
Ethan, do you think you can do it?
I'll give it my best shot.
That's what we like, Ethan.
I think you've got it in the bag.
I want you to win.
So here's the rules.
I hope I can.
You can do it, mate.
I'm going to read out a question,
the exact question that I've put into Google.
I'm looking for the most common answer that comes up for that question.
If you're the first person to just yell it out straight away,
I will give you the point.
If you yell out the wrong answer, you're out of that question.
First of three wins.
Are we all ready?
Ready.
What are we Googling on, Ethan?
Phone.
Okay, everyone else is on their phones to keep it fair.
Here comes question number one.
What is Jennifer Aniston's middle name?
What is Jennifer Aniston's...
Joanna.
Joanna.
Oh, it was close, Ethan, but Clint just got you.
It is Joanna.
Do you know why I got it?
Why?
I've got 5G at the moment.
It's because you got that booster the other day.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
All right, one to Clint.
Question number two.
Oh, I need to turn Anastasia's mic on. Hi, An, yeah. All right, one to Clint. Question number two. Oh, I didn't even turn Anastasia's mic on.
Hi, Anastasia.
You didn't say anything there, no.
I thought there was something wrong there, but that's all right.
She's here now.
She was still Googling.
Question number two.
Where was the biggest opal ever found?
I'm looking for a place.
South Australia, Coober Pedy.
Olympic.
8 Mile, Opal Field in Coober Pedy, South Australia.
I'm going to say Producer Ben got that.
I've been there.
Have you been to Coober Pedy?
Yeah, randomly.
Yeah, very, very well known for opal mining.
The Olympic Australis,
reported to be the largest and most valuable gem opal ever found.
Yeah, that's what I was saying.
Oops.
You're on the right track, Ethan.
You're on the right track.
Okay, one to Ben, one to Clint.
Question number three.
How many siblings does Macaulay Culkin have?
Two.
Clint is out.
Hard name to spell.
Three. Anastasia's out. Oh is out. Hard name to spell. Three.
Anastasia's out.
Oh, shit.
What did you say, Ethan?
Six.
Oh, you're close.
What?
Six siblings and one half-sister.
Okay, I'll accept that, Ethan.
I will accept that.
I was still trying to spell his name.
Ben.
Technically, yes, seven siblings.
One of them is a half.
But yeah, Kieran, Rory, Dakota, Quinn, Shane, Christian and Jennifer.
His brother Kieran is so good on that show.
Yes.
What's it called?
It's on the tip of my tongue.
Succession.
Succession. Succession.
He's very good on that.
Okay, one to Ethan, one to Clint, one to Ben.
Anastasia, you need this one to stay in it.
Question number four.
Who invented the television?
Alexander...
I didn't answer yet.
Philo Farnsworth.
That's right.
Anastasia comes back.
Nice work.
Very well done.
You kept yourself in the game. No, Clint,
you just turned my mic off.
One point apiece to everyone.
Question number five.
When did ZM
first broadcast? What year?
1973. That's correct.
1973.
Christchurch.
Was the first broadcast. Clint is out the front on two. Everyone else on one. Christchurch. Was the first broadcast.
Clint is out the front on two.
Everyone else on one.
Question number six.
This could be a bit of a harder one.
So just keep that in mind.
Roughly, how many Simpsons characters are there?
Roughly.
Over 100.
Clint's out. 40. An. Clint's out.
40.
Anastasia's out.
Over 800.
3,650.
Producer Ben's got it.
Between 3,600 and 3,700.
So split the difference.
3,650 is the average.
So roughly.
Wow. Okay. All right. Producer, so roughly. Wow, okay.
All right, producer Ben on two, Clint on two.
That means Anastasia and Ethan, unfortunately, you can't win from here.
I'll give my point to Ethan.
We'll play together.
Okay, all right.
Okay, thanks.
Anastasia just wants to stay in it.
No, he's out.
Ethan's only on one.
This is the deadlock between Ben and I for the win.
Wait, so what's happening. Ethan's only on one. This is the deadlock between Ben and I for the win. Wait, so what's happening?

He's taken out the first game of Google Down for the year.
I'd like to give my KFC to Ethan.
Well done, Ethan.
Yay, thank you.
Ethan, you're a solid player, can I say.
Come back and play anytime.
You guys are just too quick.
It's the 5G, baby.
Well, howdy, pilgrims. AfterG, baby. Bree and Clint. Z&M's Bree and Clint.
Well, howdy, pilgrims.
Afternoon, everybody.
If you're just joining us, welcome to the Bree and Clint Show.
We're just playing a game of air where a random,
really random song popped into my head,
and I tried to give you guys some clues,
sing a little bit of the intro. I've got nothing.
I've got nothing from your version of it.
And you have to try and guess the song.
It is quite an obscure pick.
Buddy, you ready?
Give us one more rendition.
This might sound nothing like it
because I haven't listened to it recently.
Are you ready?
Boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop, boop,
party like a rock star.
What is it?
Has anybody got it?
Has anyone figured out what it is?
I know what it is
Because she's told me
I sent it to Ben
I don't think she's done a very good job
Have you put it on here?
I will when you want to have a guess
But once I put it on it'll reveal it
I've got no guesses
No, I don't think you'll get it
It could be way off
It's very off
Put it on
I'll give you one more line
Party like a rock star Look like a movie star off. It's very off. Put it on. Oh, don't wait. I'll give you one more line. Party
like a rock star, look
like a movie star.
Anyone got it?
What would the music be without
sounds? Young boss,
Miss Trina,
Pitbull,
that's how we get down.
I party like a rock star,
look like a movie star, Yep. Like a movie star.
I've never heard this song in my life.
Is this Pitbull?
Yes.
Of course it's Pitbull.
Mr. 305.
I've never heard this Pitbull song in my life.
This is a great song.
For the last 10 minutes, you've been trying to get me to guess this song.
That's a great lyric right there.
Did you hear it?
He says, dog, check your resume.
I hit something every day.
Ready?
Here comes the chorus.
Get it on Friday.
Jams, am I right?
Yeah, I'm going to pass on that.
I love Pitbull.
I'm going to pass on this one.
Great song.
I can't believe you didn't get that.
Next on the show, we have a very awkward question to ask you.
Who did you walk in on?
Yeah, a famous celebrity and their wife have come out and said that their kids, it's happened.
It finally occurred in their relationship where their kids have walked in and what that experience was like.
Damn, I hope it wasn't Mr. 305.
I do not want to see Pitbull doing it.
The light reflects from his head so you you know, you can't see much.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And he only does it doggy style.
Yeah.
Because he's a pit bull.
We'll talk about it next.
We're just playing a quick game of Guess the Song.
And I just want to say I think my rendition of Pit Bull's Go Girl
was very close.
Producer Ben even said so. I think my rendition of Pitbull's Go Girl was very close.
Producer Ben even said so.
He's put my rendition and the actual song side by side and we're going to listen to it now.
What would the music be without sounds?
Young boss.
Miss China.
Party like a rock star.
Yes!
Like a movie star.
It's all right.
It's fine.
It wasn't your rendition
That was the issue
It was the fact that you chose
A pitbull song
We've never heard before
Yeah that was my downfall
In the game
I didn't say it was an easy game
You came up with a good point
You were like
Weren't you living in Miami
When he released this song
Because I checked the
And I was like
Yeah that's probably why
You guys haven't heard it
And that's where he's from
And I have heard it
Tell us who these famous people are Who have been caught doing it by their kids.
This is news that's come out today where Guy Sebastian and his wife,
Jewel Sebastian, have said their kids have finally caught them.
In the act.
Uh-oh.
How old are their kids?
Are they young enough that they can go,
oh, sorry, I was just checking your mum for...
For moles.
Yeah, I was doing a mole map.
Doing a mole map.
Are they of that age where you could pass that off?
I think one of them's maybe 10.
Yeah.
Like getting up there.
Can't do it with a 10-year-old.
And the other one's probably like eight-ish, nine.
Just own it then, I reckon.
Yeah, I think it's time to come clean.
Do we have some audio of Guy, I believe,
talking about the moment his kids were in for a surprise?
I don't know how much was seen and neither does Jules.
When you've got two young kids and you're just trying to find any time
for each other and then you get that once in six months little bit of time,
they still manage to ruin it.
That is so relatable.
So relatable.
And it's just awkward.
Even though they're little kids, it's just a very raw moment
for you and your partner.
And then that just ruins the mood completely.
It's going to make the next time that much more difficult as well.
You're on edge.
You're going to be on edge.
For some people, that works.
Some people are like, ooh, I like the danger.
Not me.
I'd be like.
I do not like the danger.
No, I do not like the danger. I don'd be like i do not like the day i don't want danger
involved in that aspect of my life and why like my first question is do you have a lock on your door
because i feel like every parent should have a lock on their door right i don't know i don't
know if that's a thing but yeah you don't have a lock on your door no oh every every parent slash adult actually
every really even adults living in a flat with other adults needs a lock on your door oh my
kids aren't getting locks on their door no way i didn't say kids right i didn't say kids i'm like
saying like producer anastasia lives with other adults she lives with friends they all need locks
on their doors do you have a lock on your door
producer Anastasia? No one
has locks. Why? No one has locks.
Maybe it's a New Zealand thing. Do you have a lock
on your door? Yeah. Do you? Yeah.
Do you? Yes. What are you getting up to?
Whatever I want. I've got a lock on my door.
Bean have you got a lock on
your door? Nah. Nah. Weird.
We don't even have a lock on the toilet door.
Oh see nah. Now you have a lock on the toilet door. Oh, see, nah.
Now you're really living on the edge.
Yeah.
You've got to put a lock on the toilet.
I would like a lock on the toilet door.
You've got to put locks.
And I think it's something every parent should gift to themselves
when they have kids, a lock for the door.
Either a lock or one of those sensors that they have outside dairies.
Warning.
No, no, no.
Just so when the kid comes within five metres of the bedroom,
it goes ding dong.
You hear that noise, you know that it's time to roll off and play dead.
Yeah, that's so true.
I thought we could ask this afternoon because that is a very raw moment
and I'm sure it's not just a moment that happens with kids and parents.
Oh, no. It's a moment that happens with kids and parents. Oh, no.
It's a moment that has probably occurred and judging from all of you guys
because no one's got locks on their doors,
I'm going to assume this has happened a lot
where someone has walked in accidentally.
I've walked in on friends.
Oh, have you?
Yeah, and some quite revealing,
and I don't want to be too gross with the wording here,
and some quite revealing. Yeah, that's the to be too gross with the wording here, and some quite revealing.
Yeah, that's the word I was avoiding.
But yeah.
Yeah.
I mean, it's awkward for everyone.
No.
Everyone involved.
I've never walked on my parents.
Have you walked in on your parents?
Nah, thank God.
Have you heard your parents?
No.
Have your parents heard you?
I don't think so.
Nah.
Nah.
What about you?
Did you walk in on your parents?
Nah.
No bloody way.
No, God no.
And are you grateful every day?
Yes.
Have you heard your parents?
I love you, Mum and Dad,
but I don't want to ever think that that has ever happened.
Have you heard them?
No.
And we grew up in a very small house too.
What about producers?
Anyone?
Anyone over there?
No?
No comment from the producers booth?
You guys don't have to comment.
That's not your job to comment.
Someone out there has, and it might not be your parents,
maybe there's someone more awkward than parents you could walk in.
Could be a brother, could be a flatmate, could be an ex.
Could be a grandparent.
What if it's an ex?
What if it's a grandparent?
Oh, grandparent's not great.
0800 DIAL ZM.
Who walked in on you or who did you
walk in on? Or you can text us on
9696.
It's finally happened.
Guy Sebastian has shared the
moment him and his wife Jules
were doing a bit of
indoor gardening and
their young kids walked in on them.
I don't know how much
was seen and neither does Jules.
When you've got two young kids
and you're just trying to find any time for each other
and then you get that once in six months little bit of time,
they still manage to ruin it.
I'll tell you what.
Kids ruin everything.
That's a battle scar right there.
That's for these people.
That's for her, for him or the kids?
Both people involved.
I think when that situation happens,
no matter who you are,
it's embarrassing.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It definitely is.
Breakfast the next day,
there's no eye contact being made.
And we're asking you guys this afternoon
on 0800DIALZM
to share your stories
of when you or someone else
has walked in on you.
Megan's here.
Hey, Megan.
Hi, Megan.
Hey, how are you?
Good, thanks.
Now, tell us, who was involved in this story, Megan?
There was the three siblings.
So, we grew up in an older house, thinner walls, bedrooms next door to each other and on a few occurrences
we did hear the old
indoor gardening happening in the parents
bedroom
maybe they were just
playing a bit of WWE
in the bedroom
hey we can't judge right
it could have been that
because nine months later Megan got another sibling
have you ever told your parents that you We can't judge, right? It could have been that. Because nine months later, Megan got another sibling. Oh.
Have you ever told your parents that you heard them growing up?
Well, my six-year-old brother at the time decided he would be the one to storm into the bedroom
and tell them that I needed to shut the door for future occurrences.
They hadn't shut the door.
Yeah.
They were doing it with the door was open They were doing it
When the door opened
No we were just watering
Oh
The garden
Right
Yeah
Oh my god
Right okay
Jeez crazy
Fresca
Look at
Yeah
Well good on
Hey good on your parents
Right
Keeping
Keeping alive
Yeah
Yeah
But I mean
If you've got three kids You can at least Shut the, I mean, if you've got three kids, you can at least shut the door.
Why do you think they've got three kids?
Geez.
All right.
Thank you, Megan.
Bridget's here.
Hi, Bridget.
Hi, Bridget.
Hiya.
Your story is amazing.
That was horrible.
You're the one that had one of your kids walk in on you.
Is that right?
Yes.
Just recently, too.
Oh, no.
Tell us. We no, tell us.
We've lasted eight years.
You've had a good run.
Yeah, we've had a good run, just at a horrible age though.
Yeah.
So indoor gardening, door shut, lights off, pitch black at night.
So nothing was actually seen.
Sure.
So you can't see anything at this point in the room, can you Bridget?
No.
Right.
No, and I hadn't heard the door open,
but the position hubby was in,
there was like an extra hand was rubbing on my leg.
Right, and you just thought...
And I was lying there thinking,
that's a really soft hand.
And then I heard this,
Mum? No! No! that's a really soft hand. And then I heard this, Mum.
No!
And, you know, she's still oblivious to even ask what we were doing.
No, she's got no idea.
She did say, you know, what are you guys doing?
And I said, oh, we're just having a cuddle.
Just Dad was tickling me.
And nothing more was said. Yeah, was tickling me. In the dark.
Yeah, nothing more was said.
She couldn't see that we were naked or anything like that.
So you kind of got away with it pretty well.
Yeah, yeah, definitely.
We told the in-laws in the morning, which they thought it was hilarious.
Yeah.
But definitely we locked the door now.
Yeah, right.
Now you've got to lock on the door.
So did you have a lock on the door previous to this situation?
Yes.
But you weren't using it.
But I hadn't used it.
Right.
So now you know.
Clint, definitely I have a lock on the inside of my door
and my kids have a lock on the outside of their door.
So you can lock them in?
Yeah.
You're running a tight ship there, Bridget.
That's for sure. Definitely. Okay,'re running a tight ship there, Bridget. That's for sure.
Definitely.
Okay, there's some expert parenting advice from Bridget.
That is such a good story.
Tara's here.
Hi, Tara.
G'day, Tara.
Hi, how are you?
Good, thanks, Tara.
Now, did you do the walking in on or did someone walk in on you?
So I've done the walking in on.
See, that's a bad situation to be in too.
Well, it was a bad situation.
I actually walked in to my boyfriend of nearly two years and my best friend.
Oh, my God.
Don't feel too sorry for me.
We're well over it now.
Yeah, oh, wow.
In your bed?
Was it in your bed?
In my bed.
No!
Wow.
There's no...
Oh, my God.
You always see this in movies,
and some people still try and deny it after that.
Was there any denying it?
There was way too much denying.
They still tried to deny it?
Wait.
Wait a minute.
What do you mean?
How can they deny that situation?
Well, I opened the door, and I closed the door,
and I walked straight back out.
I went and sat in my car
and then I had both of them at different occasions
denying, denying, denying.
I'd love to hear what they said.
Yeah, how did they deny it?
They just said it didn't happen.
They just said I didn't see what I saw.
They just tried to gaslight you into thinking
that you were seeing things.
That's 100% what it was. That's crazy. Oh, I'm so glad you're out of that situation They just tried to gaslight you into thinking that you were seeing things.
That's 100% what it was.
That's crazy.
Oh, I'm so glad you're out of that situation.
And I'm sure, did you dump the both of them?
Yep, see ya.
Yeah, see ya later.
Thank you, next.
Did you burn the bed?
I'd burn the bed, I think.
I wouldn't want that one.
I didn't burn the bed.
Symbolic.
Can you imagine?
That's the last people you'd expect to walk in on.
I think, would you rather your parents?
Oh, no.
God, no. No, God, no.
How no?
Bree and Clint.
Hey.
It's my birthday.
It's my birthday.

It was what it was.
I like the Love Actually version.
Yeah, me too.
Christmas is all around us.
Add the extra syllable in there.
You know, it's uncanny that song comes up today
because a friend of mine messaged
me this morning with her
idea for a parody song which was to take
that exact song and do
COVID is all around

Isn't it funny how the universe works

All right, mate, let's see your birthday banger. You were 16 in 2012, and on this day in 2012 2012 this had the number one hit.
Jessie J.
You know,
Brie does a great rendition
of this song.
It's a great song.
Yeah.
I really don't, Emma.
There's a great version.
There's a great cover
she did of this song.
This audio needs to die.
Well, I can't believe Ben hasn't got it ready.
When is it going to leave our system?
Do you like your birthday banger, Emma?
Yes, no, that is a good one.
You got a good one.
That's a good song.
Okay, wait there.
We need to deliberate.
Wet, wet, wet.
Jordan Sparks or Jessie J?
I'm torn now.
Between Jessie J and wet, wet, wet?
Jordan Sparks.
I do love a bit of wet, wet, wet,
but it's Jordan Sparks or Jessie J for me today.
I agree.
I think I'm...
I know it's Emma's birthday and she really liked the song,
but I feel like I know Emma's vibe
and she would like Jordan Sparks' No Air as well,
so that's my vote.
I'm going to vote that.
I agree.
Purely off song vibe.
It's the vibe.
I think this is the right one to play.
So that means, Kurt, congratulations.
You just won Birthday Banger.
Yes, thanks, Kurt.
You got it, Kurt.
Let's go.
This is a belter.
Yeah, this is the right choice.
Enjoy this one.
And you know if you chose the other one, I was going to play the Brie version.
I chose very well then.
Here we go.
Here's the winner of Birthday Banger on ZM, Brie and Clint.
Brie and Clint.
So if you didn't hear it yesterday, I came clean with something that happened over the holidays, Clint.
I went to a festival, plain sailing here in Auckland.
And look, I'd had a few lemonades, met some really lovely people.
And there was one particular girl that I met.
Her name was Maddie.
And we got into a conversation where she was like, oh, you know, I know that you're on that show, Bree and Clint from the radio.
I don't listen to your show.
Yeah.
And I said, okay, what's your reason?
And she said she didn't have a band extender in her car.
And one thing led to another.
And I ended up promising to this girl that I just met by handshake that I was going to
buy her a band extender for her car
so she could listen to our show for the rest of this year.
That went down a couple of days after New Year's
and no communication has since happened.
No.
I assume you haven't paid for a band expander.
No.
And Maddie hasn't received a band expander.
That's correct.
But, Clint, I'm a woman of my word.
I want to make good on these stupid, drunken decisions that I've made.
And we have tracked down the one, the only Maddie.
Hello.
Good afternoon.
Hello.
How are you guys?
Maddie, this will be the first time you've ever heard us,
considering you can't pick us up in your car.
I know.
So I'd just like to say my name's Clint.
Yeah, and my name's Bree.
You met me a couple of weeks ago.
Yes, I think I remember.
So Bree owes you a band
expander we actually have audio evidence of the contract you two entered into at the festival
uh would you like to hear it yes I would love to go oh there's that's right there's video evidence
now both of you are intoxicated in this video but the contract still stands so please take a listen
and Ben Ben and I will just recreate that for you it's quite hard to hear track still stands, so please take a listen. Pay for my radio. Pay for my radio. It's a deal.
And Ben and I will just recreate that for you.
It's quite hard to hear.
So I'll be Matty and you'll be Bree, Ben.
Okay.
Brian, pay for my radio thing.
Okay, deal.
That did not sound anything like me.
Good impression of Matty, though.
I did sound like that.
So Matty, Bree owes you this thing for a car.
I just informed Bree that a Bandix Band is about $150.
Yeah, that was news to me, Maddie.
Yeah, I don't know because I also have a European car.
Oh, no, we're going to have to take the whole centre console out.
No, no.
I know.
That's a really good point.
What sort of car do you have?
A BMW.
Oh, what the hell?
Pay for your own. You're you have? A BMW. Oh, what the hell? Pay for your own.
You're driving around in a BMW.
I've had it for a few years, and there's a reason I haven't paid for my own.
No, look, Maddie.
Look, Maddie, I'm so glad that we've tracked you down because, like I said to you,
did you ever think that this drunken agreement would end up like this
and I would come through with the goods?
Not at all. I woke up the next morning. I didn't even remember that I would come through with the goods? Not at all.
I woke up the next morning,
I didn't even remember
that I was going through all my photos and videos
and I was like, what is that?
Well, Maddie, great news.
We're going to book you into Continental Cars BMW this week
and you will have a top of the line
European band expander installed ASAP
so that you can listen to the Brian and Clint show on ZDM.
Congratulations.
You guys are amazing.
Thank you so much.
No, no, not you guys.
You're welcome, Maddie.
No, me, Maddie.
Maddie, it's my pleasure.
I am paying for it.
It's my pleasure.
We agreed on it.
Clint is not taking my thunder.
But, no, you're welcome.
And can we just lock in?
We do get you as a Bree and Clint forever listener after this.
Is that correct? Yeah.
Honestly, I promise. I think my dad will be
the one who will be the most stoked as he won't
have to listen to my FM
when I drive him around. Oh, come on,
Dad. It's a bit shaky.
You said it, we did it. Alright, we'll
see you soon, Maddie, and your precious
BMW. Cool. Thank you guys
so much.
Have you been following our journey this week?
Over the summer, Brie very generously offered
to upgrade one ZM listener's
radio so it can get
ZM in the car. Yeah, that's right.
I was in a drunken state at the
festival Plane Sailing
and I made
this agreement. Here's the drunken
replay.
Hey, my radio, it's a deal. It's a drunken replay. Pay for my radio. That's a deal.
You know what for you, Matty?
You listen to our show
and I'll pay for that to be installed.
Matty, good work. I was sober.
That's
still another one.
BS, Matty. You told us you didn't
even remember this deal until you checked
your camera roll and found the video contract.
Yeah.
Hey, look, look, we need to get this thing done
and to get your Band Expander installed in your 2007 BMW.
Yeah, we found out yesterday that she drives a BMW,
a European car.
We need to get a quote, okay?
So, Maddie, I'm about to call BM Workshop, the BMW mechanic in Greyland in Auckland.
Oh, that's a fancy one.
We're not sending Maddie's car to some knock shop.
What do you mean we?
There's no we.
You're not paying.
I'm paying.
Well, I respect Maddie too much for you to get some cheap knockoff put in her car i could
try and do it that's so kind i'll give it a whirl
oh g'day calvin uh my name's clint i'm looking to get a band expander put in a 2007 bmw one series
yep i was wondering if you could give me a quote or an estimate on
how much that might cost sure sure give me two seconds the car can't currently get zm
so we need we need to fix it good radio station love that station okay oh, oh, okay. Because I just did one last week,
and the build for that customer came out to be,
was it four and a half, five thousand?
Five grand to buy an abandoned expander.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, because, like, in a nutshell,
what really needs to happen is that the dash comes out,
central console comes out,
the bus unit, which is the
fiber optic, needs to be upgraded.
Because at the moment it's got
3.8 megahertz. It needs to be upgraded
to the 5.8 megahertz.
That 5.8 megahertz,
is there any way to get some more megahertz?
How much for six?
Calvin, Calvin, who is this?
Who is this? This is Calvin
from BM Workshop in Greenland. Calvin, come, who is this? Who is this? This is Calvin from BM Workshop in Greenland.
Come on, Calvin.
I'm not buying this.
Four grand?
Are you shitting bricks?
No, unfortunately, that's the realistic of owning a BMW.
That's the reality of offering a random woman at a festival
that you'll upgrade her secondhand BMW.
I didn't buy that for a second.
Come on, who is this?
This is genuinely Calvin, who's genuinely from BM Workshop.
But you're not being genuine about the four grand, Calvin.
No, that is the price, unfortunately.
That's the price.
No, we can drop the bet, Calvin.
I could hear in Calvin's voice the whole time
He did such a good job
How much joy he was taking in this
Like he was just loving it
Holy shit
I think I need to go change my undies after that
Calvin is a plant
But he is a real mechanic
And we do have a real quote for you
Okay good
Calvin what's the real price to upgrade Maddie's band expander on her car?
You're looking at about $450.
$400?
Yeah, but hey,
hey, at least it's not $5,000, right?
Yeah, that's right.
No, you're being serious.
Yeah, I'm serious. You're being full serious.
$450?
Yeah. Okay, do you have any
cars there for sale that aren't BMWs?
Because I think
That we're just going to buy
Matty a new car
Who are the people in New Zealand
Who save the most money
Or have the most savings?
You should have some if you can
For a rainy day
Especially with COVID coming up
But I understand
That it's not that easy
For a lot of people
Not that simple
A lot of people are just getting enough money to get by.
ASB have done a survey of 600,000 Kiwis and found the median amount of money,
and for Bree and others listening, that's the middle number.
No, I know what the median is.
How do you know what median is, but you don't know what a third is?
Yeah, it's weird.
A third is the only thing I don't get.
Well, the median amount of money that Kiwis have saved is $3,032.
What?
All up?
All up.
Right.
That's the amount of money they've got for emergencies.
But that's so hard, though, because depending on what age.
Yeah, exactly right.
You know?
Like, if you're older, like.
Hopefully you've got more.
Hopefully you've got more.
And if you're younger, pretty good.
Yeah, true. You know? If you're 21 and you've got $3,032 in if you're younger pretty good yeah true you know if you're 21 and you've got 3032 dollars in the bank good bloody good you know
uh the best savers in new zealand where do they live are you are you one of new zealand's greatest
savers by virtue of where you live the tasman district so yes yes, fairly rural. That includes Murchison, Takaka, Motueka and Kaitere Tere.
They have the most money in savings.
Next was Nelson, which coincidentally is right next to the Tasman District.
And next was Marlborough, which coincidentally is right next to Nelson.
So the top of the South Island.
The best place to save.
You guys are flush with cash.
After that it was Aucklanders Really?
Aucklanders?
Yeah
Where it cost $17 for two Coonra
Yeah
Jeez
Aucklanders
Who's saving in Auckland?
The worst savers in New Zealand
Live in
Gisborne and Southland
That's where they have the least amount of money saved
The median amount of money there is Between $1,000 and $2,000.
Oh, so it's quite a lot less.
Yeah, it's quite a lot.
I wonder why that is.
I think a number of factors.
I think like job opportunities.
It's the median number, right?
So if there's poverty, then it brings it all down.
Yeah, right.
Do you have your savings in an account that you can access?
This is the big question.
So your money that you have saved for an emergency or a rainy day
or a house if you're saving for a house,
if you are out on the pizzo,
can you access your savings account with ease?
Yes.
Is your savings account on your FBOS card?
No.
Okay.
Can you easily transfer it using your bank app?
Yes.
And do you dip into your savings?
No comment.
There you go.
I've got to get that change.
Maybe why you haven't got that house stream yet.
I've really got to get that change.
