The ZM Podcast Network. Kewt everybody, welcome to the Brie and Clint show where I don't know what it's doing where you are, but it just got ominously dark here at the ZM Studios. Yeah, it seems quite creepy outside at the moment, doesn't it? Looks like night time. Yeah. Looks like the calm before the major storm. Maybe the ghost of TK from Shortland Street is coming to get us this afternoon

for all the TK jokes we've been making. I mean, he is a powerful ghost from what I've heard. He is all powerful. Yeah. Have you seen the guns on that man? Yeah. He was Clio Bachelor of the Year. Trust me, I've seen him.

Hey, today we took on the first of your honorary Kiwi challenges. Bree's questing for honorary citizenship this week. Four big challenges. Today was climbing the Sky Tower this morning. Yes, the one that I was least looking forward to. Yeah, get it out of the way early. Get it out of the way. That's what Sir Edmund Hillary said about Mount Everest.

He said, oh, I'm most nervous about climbing Everest. He goes, oh, stuff Everest. Get it out of the way. That's what Sir Edmund Hillary said about Mount Everest. He said, oh, I'm most nervous about climbing Everest. He goes, oh, stuff Everest. Get it out of the way early. Give me Mount Kilimanjaro. Yeah. So very shortly, in fact, straight after Trading First Lady, you're going to hear how Bree went with her climb up the Sky Tower today. It could be, can I just say, all over before it began.

Yeah, what's the risk of that? Because if I don't pass a challenge. Oh, I see what you're saying. of that? Because if I don't pass a challenge... Oh, I see what you're saying. Yeah, yeah.

It was a good game. Brie and Clint, one back for the Tradies. Brie and Clint. All right. This week, Brie is on a quest to become an honorary Kiwi. Brie Thomasel. Honorary Kiwi. Five years in New Zealand, five years on air for the Brie and Clint show this week.

I know, it's quite a big milestone, isn't it? And if you can complete these four Kiwi challenges we've set for you, on Friday we'll have a party at the Lula Inn in the Viaduct in Auckland. Everybody's welcome to come down from three o'clock and we'll present you with your honorary Kiwi citizenship. I know that the invite has already been sent out because a few of my friends have been like, we're coming on Friday.

Yeah. So it's going to be a good night and everyone is welcome. Yes, you are. Yeah, everyone is welcome to come. We'll get the details up to our Bray and Clint Instagram. Today, the challenge was to climb all 1,260 stairs of the Auckland Sky Tower, the tallest building in Auckland,

the tallest building in New Zealand, the tallest building in the Southern Hemisphere. And the building that every time you and I walk past it every day, I go, imagine having to climb all those stairs. No, thanks. Imagine having to climb all those stairs. No, thanks.

Imagine having to climb all those stairs. So if you fell at this hurdle, no party. That's it. If I fail a challenge, there's no party at the end of the week. So how did Bree go climbing the Sky Tower? This was us in downtown Auckland at 7.30 this morning. It's early on a Monday morning. Let's chuck her in the Sky Tower.

All right, challenge number one. Okay, hold on. What should I put on my playlist? What should I start with? Probably a pit bull. That's a great idea. Here we go. Three, two, one, go.

She's awake. Fire it all. My legs are burning already. Oh, I hate it. I'm just going to pace myself. Sitting down already. Okay, we're at level 26. We can hear Brie approaching.

We thought... No, this is good. Carbohydrates. Garlic bread. Oh, no, I'll take that. Well, good. Yeah. Thank you. I'm off, I'll take that. Well, good. Yep. Thank you.

I'm off. I want my mum. Mum! I can see them. Hello! The end. Look where you've made it to. Oh, God.

In a celebratory drink. It's my favourite champagne, too. Have a toast with me. Okay. Oh, this is so lovely. Oh, wow, you really buffed that. Actually, I feel good now. You feel good?

You feel energised? She's off. I'm off. Stay in 10 floors. Pardon. I was another bird. 10 floors, they're live. If you do this in 30 seconds, you've done it in under half an hour.

Yes. She's done it! Oh, my God. I'm so happy with that. 29 minutes and 44 seconds. I'm the king of the world! She's not doing that mowing. That was a bad decision. How does it feel?

It feels bloody amazing. I never once had the thought of giving up. I'm going to do this for you, New Zealand. There's no turning back now. You can't get rid of me. Fireball. A sub-30-minute Sky Tower. How good.

Mate, I am happy with that sub-30 minutes walking up the Sky Tower, but have you ever in your life heard anyone sound more puffed? Oh, my God. The breathing. The wind coming out of you. They gave Priya a special whistle to blow in case she got in trouble, because we actually weren't going up the shaft of the Skytower

with her. She had this whistle and I was like, yeah, the problem with the whistle is she needs to have air in her lungs to be able to blow the whistle. I did blow the whistle. You didn't hear it? I thought it was an emergency gin whistle. Like someone would bring me gin. Bring you a drink, yeah.

Yeah, but no gin ever came. Well, you did it. You climbed the Sky Tower. You're the first person ever to climb the Sky Tower with a stomach full of champagne and garlic bread. I mean, best way to do it. Challenge one of one done. Yeah! Are you ready to hear what tomorrow's challenge is?

Oh, God. I just mentally have gotten over this morning, but yes. So, tomorrow morning, this is what you need to do. Challenge two. As New Zealand invented the modern-day bungee jump, it's only fair that your next challenge is a bungee off the Auckland Harbour Bridge. Why? Why are you giving me this one tomorrow?

Get them out of the way. I thought you were going to finish with this one. No, we're going to do it tomorrow. We're going to go across the Harbour Bridge. Early in the morning too, we'll catch rush hour traffic on the bridge. So we'll be moving around. That'll be the real challenge. That's another challenge. I promised to do it with you, a tandem, if you wanted me to.

Yeah. Claudia actually just said she wasn't sure if they'd allow tandems. But you've been on the phone to AJ Hackett, Bungie, Claude. You've talked to them. What did they say? Inconclusive. Ah. You guys are just keeping secrets.

I know how you guys work. I'm a big unit. There might be a weight limit. Might have to go solo. Who knows? Well, you know what? If you're allowed it, I'll bungee with you tomorrow morning. If Clint can't go, I guess I'll have to do it on mine.

There's a video of the Sky Tower climbing. It'll be on our social media this evening. Ella is busily beavering away on it right now. I saw some of the footage. It is some of the worst video footage of me I've seen in many years. If you thought Ed Sheeran in concert was red, wait till you see Bree Thompson. Shut up! I look like a fire engine.

It's like you're supporting the Crusaders. Bree and Clint. Are you wearing jeans at the moment? I'm wearing cordu- Shit, you've at the moment? I'm wearing cordu... Shit, you've got nothing on. I've got... I'm wearing corduroys. Oh, you've got corduroys on.

Yeah. Okay, hipster. I know. The student radio station's that way. Sorry, guys. I'm out of here. Wow.

Corduroy and clogs. Shut up. I'm not wearing clogs. Not really. I've got jeans on at the moment. You do? I was reading this thing from someone at Levi's, someone high up,

and they were talking about how often you should wash your jeans. It's one of those age-old questions, right? Yes. Some people are like, don't ever wash your jeans, put them in the freezer. Which? I've never put a pair of jeans in the freezer. I have. Have you?

Yeah, back in the day. It does work. It doesn't get them clean, though. It doesn't get them clean, though. It doesn't get them clean. It takes out a bit of the whiffy smell, but if they're whiffy, they need a wash. They need a wash. The whiff is nature's way of saying y'all. Time to wash me.

Time to wash me, brah. I've been hanging around your front bits and your back bits. Like I'm in all the fragrant zones, danger zones. I could not be closer to your junk. Maybe I could have a wash. And you're like, the freezer. Put them in the freezer, see? So this guy's name is Paul O'Neill. He's

the design director at Levi's. Oh, fancy smancy. He knows about jeans. Yeah. He said that while many people choose to never wash their jeans, he believes that you should put them through a cold wash every 30 to 50 wears. What?

Can I argue against this? My mind has changed on this recently. I feel like if the jeans are a loose-fitting jean, you can get more wears out of them before you have to wash them. If they're a tight-fitting jean, no. Like, you should not be. Again, pushing up against your front bits and your back bits. You know, you should not be waiting.

Although we're wearing undies, aren't we? We're wearing undies. Yeah, but undies aren't like a protective, like, thick barrier. I think that's exactly what they are. Undies? I think that's what they're designed to be. What did you think they're for? Oh, but, like, if you fluff, it's going through the undies.

Oh, yeah, but there's a filter. I wish they'd ask Paul O'Neill how often the people who wear no undies need to wash their jeans. Wait, who's wearing jeans with no undies? People. People. Not me. Not me.

The seam. Claudia doesn't wear undies with her jeans, eh, Claudia? Don't you put my name to these things. That is not an option for us females, can I say? That seam is dangerous in jeans. I feel like Joey from Friends didn't wear undies with his jeans. Yeah, well, maybe he might have. 9696, do you go commando in your jeans?

We won't put your name to it, don't worry. We won't reveal your secrets, but maybe I made it up. So 30 to 50 wears means you should wash your jeans if they're a pair you wear regularly every couple of months. Right. Yeah. If you like wear, if you've got two jeans in your rotation, a dark pair and a light pair.

He also said that washing your dirty jeans on a gentle cycle by themselves is what you should do and never put them in the dryer. Man, when skinny jeans were cool, I'd like nothing better than putting them in the dryer for two hours when they were already dry. What? So they could become even tighter?

How tight did you want them? Well, they loosened up, you know? They loosened up as you wore them. Yeah. Man, that's disgusting though, isn't it? I feel like I put my skinny jeans in the dryer so many times that they ended up being three-quarter length. Caprice.

Yeah, Caprice. Bree and Clint. What would you do if your soon-to-be husband or wife wanted to have their ex in the bridal party? Depends if their ex had been in the friend circle previously. Can you imagine how much of a surprise it would be if you'd been dating this person for

a few years? And the ex comes out of nowhere. So here's the situation. It's quite confusing, so concentrate for a little bit. There's a man and a woman. They're engaged. They're about to get married.

They've talked to each other about who they want in their bridal parties. Both of them were cool. They were like, great, that sounds perfect. Mm-hmm. It's come to the soon-to-be wife's attention that her soon-to-be groom used to date his best man. Oh, okay. He's a bisexual man.

Yeah. Used to date the best man, the guy that he wants to be his best man. Yeah, that adds a layer of complexity to it, doesn't it? Right. So here's the background details. The best man and the groom had been friends for many, many years. Yeah. And then many years into the friendship,

they were like, maybe we should be romantic. Okay. And they dated for one month. Oh, okay. That was many, many years ago. Yeah. They decided. I bet it was a wild month though.

Yeah. They're like, all these things we used to do as friends, now we can kiss at them. It's so good. We get the best of both worlds. So they tried for a month, decided we are much better off as friends and then went on being friends for many, many years after that. The wife didn't know this.

Oh, shit. Okay. And it's because the groom kind of said because it was such a small part of their relationship, like their whole friendship, he doesn't even really think about it anymore. But she's not happy about it. Yeah, because she didn't find out they dated until it was coming up to the wedding. I reckon that's what she's more upset about.

She's like, how come you never told me that you and this guy, who's clearly a big part of their life, big enough to be a groomsman, the best man. How come you didn't tell me that you guys had a thing? She's now calling for him not to be in the bridal party. I think she's overreacting. Is it his best friend? It's his best friend. It's his best man. I think she's overreacting. I get it if you feel like someone had lied to you, but I feel like they probably just forgot because they've been friends for like however many years.

People say that it's really risky to hook up with your best friend because you could ruin the friendship. No one ever talks about the fact that you could ruin the ability for them to be your best man. That's the part of it they don't talk about. It's so interesting, like hooking up with someone that you have been good friends with. Yeah. I have done that before. Did the friendship survive? Are you friends now?

Yeah, I'd say, but not as good of friends. No. No. It tainted it. Well, it didn't taint it, but it just... It ruined it. It complicates it. Yeah.

It complicates it because it's not just a friendship anymore. You know, there's more history. Do you think it was always a friendship or was one person more romantically interested than the other? Genuinely, we were really good friends for like three years. Yeah. I never had those thoughts or feelings. Yeah.

Ever. And then at a party, we got, there was, I mean, we were all young and stupid and someone, we were each daring people in the room. Classic, yeah. And two people, one person dared us to kiss and then both of us afterwards was like, did you? Was that good?

Did you feel something? I think I feel something. And then we dated for like four years. Four years? Yeah. Okay. So say you're marrying your current partner. Would they be cool with that person being?

I probably wouldn't have that person in the wedding party. No. We want to ask if you did. The question we want to ask this afternoon is, was Anne X, either yours or theirs, part of the wedding? They don't have to have been in the bridal party. They could have been the celebrant. They could have been the emcee.

They could have been the DJ. Oh, really? You're going to take emcee, DJ? I don't know. I just want to know if your ex was a feature of the wedding day. Were they in the bridal party or were they included in the wedding? Just a guest doesn't count. Doesn't count.

I don't reckon. Oh, you don't reckon? Does it? It's still like a little bit unusual. Okay, okay, okay. All right, all right. I'd rather them in the bridal party. If it was controversial, I want to hear about it.

Yeah. Yeah. Absolutely. Okay, what did your ex have to do with your wedding? Or their ex? And did you know it was their ex? Or did you find out later? Bree and Clint.

What part did your ex play in your wedding? Or their ex? Or their ex. Your partner their ex? Or did you find out later? Bree and Clint. What part did your ex play in your wedding? Or their ex. Or their ex. Your partner's ex. Were they in the bridal party? Or were they doing a job at the wedding? Yeah, how prominent were they? Were they an integral part of your big day?

Did they walk you down the aisle? Oh, yeah. Could happen. Could have happened. Could happen. Or did happened. Could happen. Or did they give a really awkward speech where they kept referencing how they used to hook up with one of you? I would not be asking an ex to make a speech. Someone texted and we said, was your ex part of the wedding?

They said, yep, I'd slept with one of the bridesmaids. And my wife had gone out with both of my best men. Sharing is caring. And we all knew about it. Well, as long as you all know about it and everyone's fine, then that's all good. Jeez, barbecues in your friend group sound fun. Let's go to Carl.

Hi, Carl. Hi, Carl. Afternoon, team. How are we going? Good, thank you, Carl. Tell us, was it your ex or your partner's ex that were involved in the wedding? Oh, it's my ex, but it's actually her now fiancé

that's one of my groomsmen. Okay, you're going to have to unpack that for us. Wait a second. I've actually been on your show before. You asked if I've ever lived with an ex, and so I've called in about that, but now it's gone a bit further, and obviously our relationship's grown, and, you know. So, hang on.

Yeah, no, you need to. You need to start at the start, sorry. Roll it back a few. So you said the person you were marrying. No, my ex. Your ex. Yeah. Yeah.

So my ex is now fiance. So we've separated. She's gone her way. I've gone my way. Yes. And we've... Yeah, so I became friends with her new boyfriend, who's now her fiancé.

Okay. And now the fiancé and I are best friends. Okay. And he's now one of my groomsmen. Wait, are you getting... So he's going to be one of your groomsmen because you're getting married as well? I'm getting married, yep. And are they getting married?

They're getting married as well. And are you going to their wedding? Yep. And are you part of the wedding? I hope so. Yeah, no, I'm a groomsman as well. You're a groomsman as well? What the heck?

Bit of a switcheroo. An old switcheroo indeed. Bit of a switcheroo. Can you imagine the spider web? Can you imagine the tree on that? I almost needed a diagram to explain that. Yeah, I think I do. I think I wrap my head around it.

Thank you, Carl. Yeah, I get it. I get it. He's best mates with his ex's new fiance. Yeah, and they're both having each other as groomsmen at their weddings. Anx is here. G'day, Anx. Hiya.

Anx, tell us, who was the ex that was involved in the wedding? My ex was actually my wedding photographer. Really? Wow. Can I ask, an ex from how long ago and how long did you date that ex for? So we were together on and off for about four or five years.

Okay, so a decent amount of time. Yeah, but it was like 10 years ago, so it's all kind of chill. Did you disclose to your partner before you hired them as the photographer that you guys had dated? Yeah, I did because I thought, oh, this is a great way to save money. So he was 100% on board with that. He was fine with it so long as you got a good deal, mates rates. Yeah, yeah, exactly. That was great.

It worked out well. Did at any point, did he like jump in and be like, should we get one together just in case? We did actually get like a few Polaroids together. Did you? Hands the camera to your partner and was like, cool, now get one of us. Mate, can you get one of us? That'd be good.

Thanks, Anx. That's hilarious. So many texts coming through on this. Someone said, hi, I was a groomsman and best man at my ex's wedding. They got married twice. His wife was an ex at his first wedding, attending as a guest. Oh, my God, my brain hurts. My brain's going grrr.

This person wants to be anonymous. Anonymous, was your ex a part of your wedding? Is that me? Yeah. That's you. Oh, hi. No, I used to be a makeup artist, and I did the makeup for my ex's bride. Oh, okay.

Wait, okay. So your ex's new partner that he was getting married to, you did her makeup? I did. And we... Full regrets that I didn't make her look heinous, because she got rid of me about two months after the wedding and we're not friends anymore. No. Yeah, he was my best friend after the fact, so yeah.

What happened? Oh, I think it was a classic case of, you know, keep your enemies closer. I think she knew that we were best mates, so she kept me around and acted like she was my friend until she had a chance to get rid of me. And then when they were married, she was like, cool, I don't need you anymore. Yeah, yeah. Oh, that's so sad.

She never looked so good, believe me. Yeah. Anonymous is like, I'll polish that too. You should have given her something that would give her a rash. You know, you should have put something toxic in there. Oh, sorry about that, Anonymous. Did you lose your... You're obviously not friends with her.

Did you lose your ex as a friend as well? Oh, yeah. Yeah, definitely. Yeah, it sucks. Yeah. Oh, sorry to hear that, Anonymous. So many, like... All of these have been up front.

There's been no one who was like, I found out that the person they chose to be whatever in the wedding day had some kind of history, some kind of link to them. Yeah, most people... Which is the link to them. Yeah, most people Which is the story you told. Yeah Exactly. She wasn't happy to learn that his best mate was an ex

Exactly. His best man. Someone texted her and said, please keep me anonymous, I was the ex that was invited to the wedding and I was actually in the wedding party but plot twist, I was the maid of honour and I used to date the groom. You're crossing the aisle.

Brie and Clint. Glaston Brie has just wrapped up. You would have been seeing that all over your TikTok feed this weekend. Elton John closed out the festival. His final ever performance, Elton John. That's it. I hope not. No, that's it.

It's the end. I mean, some people come back. Yeah, that's true. But he has said that's the last show he's it. It's his last. No, that's it. It's the end. I mean, some people come back. Yeah, that's true. But he has said that's the last show he's doing. Because remember, he was doing a farewell world tour before COVID. And then COVID. And then he's like, I'm still doing it. And they're like, you're dangerously old.

He's like, no, I'm doing it. So. He'll be back. You reckon? You mark my words. All right. Well, he's 74. He'll be back.

Another big part of Glastonbury over the weekend was Lewis Capaldi. For different reasons. A few weeks ago, we reported on how Lewis had stepped back from touring because he was having some serious health issues, not just physical health. He's been open about how he suffers from Tourette's, and he said his mental health was really not doing well with the touring situation. Yeah, he really wasn't in the best headspace at all

and he took a couple of weeks off, which meant he had to cancel some of his shows because he's literally just touring back to back to back to back. There's no time off. Yeah, three weeks. He had three weeks off so that he could get himself ready for Glastonbury. It was really important for him that he did this show. When it came time to do the show,

you will have seen the footage. He lost his voice or he just wasn't able to sing. I'm not sure which one of the two it was. He also, you could see physically, he was ticking really hard. His Tourette's, and he said it's brought on by his anxiety and the stress of performing live.

But have a listen to this. This is Lewis Capaldi at Glastonbury. When he couldn't sing, have a listen to what the crowd did instead. I've heard about the rest of my feelings, no one had seen it through. Listen. Listen to me Listen

I need somebody to move Somebody to keep Somebody to hold Just to know It's easy to say It's never the same I guess I kinda love the way you love those days Isn't that incredible? It's so hard to watch because you can tell that he

is really struggling and the crowd just kind of just gathers around him and picks him up it's kind of them saying we got you he leans on the microphone stand and you can kind of

just see it all on his face that he's going I'm not okay but what about this situation? What about this crowd? And you can tell that he's just kind of taking it in. I hope that he does what's right for him because he's obviously not in a good space. Well, this is the thing. He's due to perform here in New Zealand, in Auckland, in Wellington

in a few weeks' time. Yeah. In mid-July. But he said on stage that he thinks he will be taking another few weeks off. That's what he said over the weekend. He said he may even be taking the rest of the year off. So there's nothing confirmed yet, but you're right. He has to put himself first.

What's the point? What is the point? You know? And not a single Lewis Capaldi fan wants him to tour himself to death, do they? No, and this is the hard part because these people have so much pressure on them. Like I can't even imagine how much pressure they would have

to not let people down, not let their fans down. Yeah. But at the end of the day, nothing is more important than your mental health and how you're feeling because or else you'll never play again. Exactly right. If you want to see that very emotional video, it's just gone up now at ZM Online. You can go and watch the whole Lewis Capaldi performance of that song up there now. Let's have a round of Guess That Voice.

It's a very easy game. Well, sometimes it's easy, sometimes it's not, depending on the mood of producer Claudia. But it's where you and I go head-to-head with a teammate trying to guess celebrity voices the fastest. Claude, did you go with my theme idea today? Yeah, I did. Thank you. Yeah.

Weird that we just talk about Glastonbury. Yeah. People that have performed at Glastonbury? Exactly right. So hopefully you guys were paying attention. Can you not call it Glastonbury, please? Glastonbury. Glastonbury. Glastonbury.

It's cute. Like gooseberry. Glastonbury! Is that better? Let's meet our teammates. Vicky's going to join Team Clint. Kia ora, Vicky. Hi, Vicky. Hey. We're going to work together to get you this KFC chicken dollars, okay? Yes, we are. We're taking on Bree's team, who has Annie on it.

Hi, Annie. Hello, Annie. Hi. Come on, we're going to win the KFC, Annie, you and I. Of course we are. Of course. We got it in the bag. I like this confidence.

Okay, like I said, this is all Glastonberries. Glastonberry. Glastonberry over the weekend. I'm just going to play a celebrity voice. Just buzz in with your name if you can tell me who it is. Brie and Clint, you guys are going first. Got it. Ready?

All right. Yep. Okay, here's your first one. Next day it wasn't there, so I rang Rod up. Clint. Clint. Sir Elton John. Very good.

Oh, dear. Can you see your balloon, your blimp from where you are? Oh yes dear, I can. Isn't it fabulous? And he looked out the window and said, you bastard. Love Elton John. He'll be back, right? He's alright. He's alright.

I'm just trying to make myself feel better that twice I bought tickets for his concert and it got cancelled. Because of that flood, Bree's like, oh, Elton John was scared of getting wet. No, I didn't. Stadium's literally underwater.

Bree's like, oh. I did not. Okay, okay. Come on, Annie, you've got this. You've got it. So Vicky and Annie, this one's for you guys.

Just buzz in with your name if you can tell me who this is. But we've never met before. So it's weird to see you because I'm used to seeing you like 50 shades of grey. So it's weird.

Oh, who buzzed there? Was that Vicky? Vicky. Vicky? It's Lois Capaldi. It is indeed. It is Lois Capaldi. To see you like here

without like a whip in your hand. Yes. We love Lois Capaldi. Well done, Vicky. Unacceptable accent. It's the accent. She's got a very

strong accent. Okay, well that's two points, Team Clint. So Bree and accent. It's the accent. He's got a very strong accent. Okay, well, that's two points, Team Clint. So, Bree and Clint, back to you guys. Here you go. I was at my sister's house. I was sleeping on my sister's floor, promoting my music, because I couldn't go back home. Clint.

Clint. Lil Nas X. For the win, it is Lil Nas X. I should be like, you out of school for music? Yeah, like, what are you doing? And, you know, it's understandable. It's the only American that I could think of that was playing Glastonbury. I had no idea who was at Glastonbury.

Sorry, Annie. Not our day. Not our day at all. Vicky, we've got 50 KFC chicken dollars coming your way. Congratulations. Awesome. Thank you so much. All good.

Nice work, Vicky. You're not interested in Glastonbury? I've just had stuff on. I was climbing the Sky Tower this morning. Yeah, it was all over the weekend. Have you had the choice between going to Glastonbury and Coachella? Which one would you choose? Glastonbury.

I'd take either one. Bree and Clint. Bree and Clint. Bree and Clint. All I want for my birthday is a birthday thing. The number one songs on your 16th birthday. So we're going to play three and pick our favourite one to play out in full. Let's kick it off with Natalie this Monday evening. Kia ora, Natalie.

G'day, Nat. Hi. How was your weekend, Natalie? Yeah, it was interesting. Interesting? That sounds interesting. Elaborate. No, it's probably not as interesting as many others.

My son somehow worked out to spend $500 on Robux. Oh, are you kidding me? On your credit card? No, yeah, on the debit card, yeah. Oh, no. Is that what? It found out last night. Oh, God.

And so how old's your son? He's nine. Oh, no. He's a nine-year-old. He'd have a banging Roblox account, though. Yeah. $500, I reckon he's got a pretty awesome set-up now. He's not accessing it for a long time now.

Oh, God. Yeah, bloody hell. Well, long time now. Oh, God. Bloody hell. Well, that is an interesting weekend, Natalie. What's your birthday? And we'll do your birthday banger. 3rd of the 12th, 1983. All right. That means you were 16 in 1999.

And on your 16th birthday, this was number one. Get on up when you're down, baby. Take a good look around. I know it's not much. Oh, banger. Bit of five. What do you think, Nat? I like it.

You like it? Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah. I love it. I think it's a great birthday banger. That brings back such strong memories for me, that song. Jump Jam. No, my 13th birthday, I had some of the boys over.

Oh, my God. You didn't choreograph a dance, did you? No, no. But we were... I can picture you doing that. No, no, no. Worse. We were awkward 13-year-olds, and we were trying to find our way.

And we were like, we like The Offspring. And we like Blink-182. And my dad at the birthday party puts on that Five song on CD. He's like, hey, guys, I've got some music on for you. And I was like, Dad, that's so embarrassing. We don't even listen to Five. They're not even cool, Dad. He's like, well, last year you were listening to Hanson, so.

Oh, no. Let's do Amber. Hi, Amber. Hi, Amber. Hi, how are you going? Good, thanks. How was your weekend, Amber? It was pretty good, actually. I went to Auckland with the family for my birthday. Oh, happy birthday. Did you get some

good gifts? Yeah, a few things. Well, just time with the family is the best gift, isn't it, Amber? I told them not to buy me anything. I'd rather buy myself a few things. Love that. Fair enough. Okay enough So what day and what year? 24th of June and that is 84 Alright that means you were 16 Amber in the year 2000

and on your 16th birthday this was at the top I'm spinning around move out of my way I know you're feeling because you like it like this She'saging a big comeback at the moment, but 23 years ago, that Kylie Minogue song was number one. Do you like it, Amber? Yeah, Kylie's pretty cool.

Kylie's pretty cool. Kylie is cool. She's timeless. She is timeless. She never ages. Let's do one more for Cameron. Kia ora, Cameron. Hi, Cam.

Kia ora, how are you? Good, thanks. What did you get ora, Cameron. Hi, Cam. Kia ora, how are you? Good, thanks. What did you get up to for your weekend, Cam? Yeah, yeah, not much. Enough said, Cam. That's all I can say. Okay. That was a what?

Okay, Cam, well, let's do your birthday bagger. What's your birthday? August 16th, 2000. All right, that means you were 16. Pretty easy one in 2016. And here is your birthday? August 16th, 2000. Alright, that means you were 16. Pretty easy one in 2016. And here is your birthday banger. Absolute banger from Sia. And

Sean Paul's on that one too. Are you a fan, Cam? It's a pretty good thing. Don't... Not going to lie, I do blast it quite a lot. Do you? Wow, okay. Well, perfect.

Great birthday banger for you. I do really like that Sia song. I don't like it more than the Kylie Minogue song. Ooh. I'm voting Kylie Minogue. What? I'm voting Kylie Minogue. What? I'm voting Kylie Minogue. What do you mean what?

Oh, you've really thrown a spanner for me because sometimes I'm like, well, I'm never going to win this battle. Yeah, Kylie. Yeah. You know me, I'm never not going to vote Kylie. I didn't even think this was a question. Also, if it had gone to split vote, Claudia, what were you voting for? Oh, Kylie, of course.

Kylie. Kylie's back, baby. How was the one Australian on the show the one who wasn't sure about Kylie Minogue? Can we back-to-back with Padam Padam? I saw this hilarious TikTok video the other day. And then I got entranced by this woman because she has a whole account on TikTok. So let me tell you about her. She's 93.

Okay. She's a grandma. Her name's Lillian Droniak. Okay. And there's a video of Her name's Lillian Droniak. Okay. And there's a video of her that's going viral at the moment because the video is captioned, play this video at my funeral. Right.

Okay. Yeah. So that's what she said. Is it on her TikTok account? It's on her TikTok account. So she's 93 and she has TikTok. Exactly. Love her already.

So listen to Lillian Droniak, 93. Listen to her requests and she wants this video played at her funeral. Play this video at my funeral. Thanks for coming, everyone. There's probably a lot of people here, so have fun. If you're crying, stop being a baby. Find a tissue and move on don't be sad i lived a long time i slayed every day and now i'm gonna lay every day i hope you slay while i decay and

bertha better not be here if she's here kick her out right now i'm gonna haunt you bertha and my ex george better leave i know he's here i'm gonna haunt him, Bertha, and my ex, George, better leave. I know he's here. I'm going to haunt him too. I hope everybody gets drunk after this. You better take a shot for me. Love you all. I love her so much. I'm deeply obsessed with her.

Oh, my God. I slayed every day and now I'm going to lay every day. She has and then she's going to decay every day. Oh, wow. She has beef with Bertha. Like I don't know what Bertha did to cross her but she is ready to knife her. If Bertha dies first, I wonder if she'll update the video. Yeah, true.

That's a great point. I just picture like imagine being at Lillian's funeral. Yeah. And they play that video. Like, have you ever been to a funeral where they've played a video that the person has recorded? No. No?

No. I've never been to a funeral where there were funny moments. Well, it could be funny or it could be, like, sad too. That would be funny. That would be hilarious. And that's why she's done it, is because she wants people to be happy at her funeral. Yeah. Not happy that she's dead, just happy that she was.

And that she lived as long as she did. She had a full life, 93. I love it. I think it's a great idea. I'm interested to know if people have been to funerals where stuff has happened that's out of the ordinary. Yeah. So maybe they played a video of the person that has passed away.

Maybe they recorded a video before they died. Maybe someone stood up and said something shocking at the funeral that nobody realised. They're like, I was in a relationship with him for five years and none of you knew. What about this text that just come in? A lady showed up at my great auntie's funeral with a toaster that she'd bought at the op shop near the church

and walked right up to the front. Well, I mean, she couldn't go all the way home. That means she'd missed the funeral. So she had to bring it with her. Was it the op shop? Oh, the op shop near the church where the funeral was. Yeah, she obviously bought a toaster at the op shop. She needed one.

She goes, two birds with one stone and then I'll hit up the funeral. What's the toaster got to do with Nan? No, that's what I mean. She went to the op shop first. Yeah. She's like, oh, I need a toaster. Yeah. And I'm not going to leave this toaster.

It's a great deal. Oh, she was on her way to the funeral. And grabbed a toaster on the way. Exactly. Shit. Oh, 800 dials at M or you can text to 9696. What's the weird thing that happened at the funeral? Yeah.

At my nan's funeral, the group who were using the room, the funeral room next, walked in and they said, hey, you guys finished yet? And we're like, clearly not. She's still here. We haven't carried her out yet. I know. And we were like, can you?

Yeah. Get out of here. That's my submission. 0800 dials at M. Bree and Clint. We are gathered here today to talk about the weird things that happened at a funeral that you were at. Come on. It's okay to talk about the weird things that happened at a funeral that you were at. Come on.

It's okay to talk about it. The tension is so high at a funeral that the second one thing is out of place. You're like, um, up to. What about this text? Someone texted through and said, I went to a funeral once where the minister said the name wrong for the first 10 minutes. That happened at my other nan's funeral.

How awkward. It was a tonguey. We'd been on the marae for three days and the person officiating still got her name wrong. To be fair, she has quite a strange name, but still, you've got one job. Are you only burying one person? One job.

This one's also ruthless. My nana was Anglican, but she was not practising. At her funeral, the priest or whatever it was called said, well, Barbara wasn't practising, so it's unlikely that she will be welcomed into heaven. And I hope that God will forgive her and let her in anyway. Can you imagine? Savage.

What? You don't say that. Using the dead nan to scare everybody to go into church that week. Oh, God. Jenny is here. Hi, Jenny. Hi, Jenny. Hi.

What happened with the funeral that you were a part of? Well, it was about 20 years ago right after Once Were Warriors came out and when we turned up for the wake, it turned out to be at the same pub that Once Were Warriors was filmed at. Amazing. Was it a good wake, Jenny? It was okay, but my mum was quite classy. It was her funeral and she would have been horrified.

I know it was a movie and it would have been a film set, but did the bar have a Once Warriors vibe to it? Yeah, it really, really did. Really? I don't remember what we specified for the food, but all of the food was just deep fried. It was like, yeah, it was so bad. And double brown.

Does anyone want one of these mini mince pies? Oh, don't knock the mini mince pies. Oh, I'm not. I love them. Can I say controversial opinion? Funeral food slaps. Funeral food is the best, like the sandwiches. The sandwiches, the asparagus rolls on the white bread with the crust cut off and the butter.

God, there's nothing more than an asparagus roll. God, I will scoff some of those. Asparagus roll, disgusting on paper. Delicious. At a funeral. Maybe it's the grief. Maybe grief is the secret ingredient. I'm going to go home and make myself an Asparagus roll, disgusting on paper. Delicious. At a funeral. Maybe it's the grief. Maybe grief is the secret ingredient. I'm going to go home and make myself an asparagus roll.

You know why? You have to use tinned asparagus. Because I'm an adult. Well, careful. People you don't cause a funeral. And what this mama wants, this mama gets. Sarah's here. Hi, Sarah.

Hi, Sarah. Hi. Are you as horny for asparagus rolls as we are? Yeah, it's a shame. I love them. How good are they, Sarah? Theyparagus rolls as we are? Yeah, it's a shame. I love them. How good are they, Sarah? They're just so underrated. Yeah, they're brilliant.

What happened at the funeral you were a part of, Sarah? Well, it wasn't actually one I went to, but a friend of mine was telling me that he went to his auntie's funeral and he was a pool bearer. And as he was walking out, he was also a ventriloquist. And one of the other pool bearers did a slight trip. And so he threw his voice and said, for God's sake, can you guys carry me a bit more carefully?

To make it sound like it was the body talking. Yeah. Yeah, no, Sarah, if that was in my family, we'd love that humour, but I can tell that some people wouldn't appreciate it. I've just got a cold chill up my spine. I actually think it's brilliant. And at my funeral, I've already told my daughter, because when she was little, I used to think the song said,

I'm going to eat pizza. So at my funeral, I want to have Pizza Hut come in. That's going to play when I come in, and everyone's going to get pizza. So at my funeral, I want to have Pizza Hut come in. That's going to play when I come in and everyone's going to get pizza. Sarah, can I get an invite to your funeral, please? Sure, sure. That sounds like a good bloody time. Get a ventriloquist, too. Yeah, I will.

Yeah, okay. Sounds awesome. Thanks, Sarah. You're a hoot. Let's go to Tiana. Kia ora, Tiana. Hi, Tiana. Hi. Mate, what was the weird thing that happened at the funeral? So at my uncle's funeral, we knew that he had one partner. And so we were kind of expecting them all to get up, but we wanted her to get up and talk, but she didn't want to.

Okay. But unbeknownst to us, he also had four other girlfriends at the same time. And so it was a sudden death. So one by one, they all got up and spoke. And mentioned that they were his girlfriend. And for the first one, we're like, oh, this is a little bit awkward. And come the second and the third and the fourth, we couldn't hold it together. We're all just pissing ourselves laughing.

We just couldn't hold it together. We thought it was absolutely hilarious. Tiana, who was this man to you? Her uncle. Your uncle. Did all the girlfriends know about each other, Tiana? No, that's where they found out. Oh, no.

Oh, you'd want to go first, wouldn't you? By the fifth girlfriend, she probably got up and said, he's lucky he's dead. That was her speech? Yeah. Oh, my God. That would have been one hell of a wake. How about this text?

At a funeral I was at, a rather stout lady got up, huffing and puffing to give a eulogy. The kid in front of me asked his mum loudly, is that the lady who's going to die? Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, no. Not understanding how funerals work.

Can you imagine trying to wrangle a kid at a funeral? Oh, no. Oh, that is my worst nightmare. Well, they're good comic relief at funeral, kids. Well, that's true. That is true. Yeah. Yeah. Not when they say that.

Oh, shit. Thank you, everybody. That was really good. Oh, you've got to laugh. If you don't laugh, you'll cry. Bree and Clint. I think I've come across, I've stumbled upon the next big musical. Okay.

I don't pick you for being much in tune with what's going on in the musical world. No, normally I wouldn't be, but I think this might be right up my alley in terms of musicals. So I came across this on TikTok. It's from a guy called Gabe Gibbs, and what Gabe does is he turns, you know, pop songs that we know and love, but he turns them into a musical. Okay.

So it's hard to explain. What I'm going to do is I'm going to play you Gabe's version of a popular Backstreet Boys song, and what he has done is he's turned it into a musical and he is playing the villain. So this is the villain's perspective using a Backstreet Boys song. Didn't expect to see me here, did you, Backstreet Boys? Thought you could be rid of the old Fatone so easily. Well, I'm here, as are all your families. I know what you're

thinking. You're thinking, oh my God, he's back again. Of course I am. Brothers, sisters, everybody sing. I'm going to bring the flavor, really show you how I got some questions for them, watch them answer now Oh families, am I original? Am I the only one? I can't hear you, am I sexual? Well, am I everything you need? You better rock your body now. Watch and do nothing as all your families are forced to rock their bodies.

Well, everybody. Keeps going. That is so good. You get the idea. That is so good. How good is it? I just pictured Scar

like it's the villain obviously he is so amazing. He says you thought you could get rid of the old Fatone so easily. Yeah.

Is he playing Joey Fatone from NSYNC? I think so. Is that who the villain is in the Backstreet Boys musical? I don't know, but if you want to check this guy out,

he does all types. He does Britney and he does everything, and he's actually quite amazing. You can find him on TikTok at The Gabe Gibbs. I'd watch it. It's amazing. I would go to that. Wouldn't you go to it?

I think he's got a big future ahead of him, that guy. Yeah, he should start that musical, the Backstreet Boys musical? Yeah. I mean, there's a lot in that. Brian Clint, here's the Pink Panther-esque. The Pink Panther-esque? The Backstreet Boys.

Time to retire. Just before COVID, you'll remember Gwyneth Paltrow launched her candle, This Smells Like My Vagina candle. Yeah, I had to send her a cease and desist letter because it was very similar to my candle. This smells like my bum. Wasn't it the other way around? No, I don't believe so, no.

Wasn't it the other way around? No, I don't believe. I think I was first and then she. I was part of the brainstorm for that candle and I refused to be a part of it. But I definitely... You were in San Francisco on some gallivanting around and then you came back and your name was on it. You were in San Francisco on some gallivanting around and then you came back and your name was on it.

Things were different before COVID. Gwyneth Paltrow followed up her vagina candle. With what? What has she got now? Her vagandal? Vagazzle? Vagandal? Vagizzle? This smells like my

orgasm. Are we allowed to say that on the radio? Yeah, orgasm. It's a medical term. Medical? Yeah. You've been diagnosed with orgasm. No, but it's like a, you know, it's like the word vagina. So those candles exist.

Okay? They exist. There is documentation that has been revealed. It's with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, which reveals that Goop, Gwyneth Paltrow's company, has filed trademark applications for a line of chocolate and candy products titled... I know what this is going to be. This tastes like my vagina.

Oh, no. That's what the new Gwyneth Paltrow chocolate is going to be called. The chocolate? Chocolate. Have you seen those? I mean, interesting. And I wonder if it actually does. Great question.

Or else it's kind of false advertising. And kind of for me, it doesn't just need to taste like that. It needs to taste like hers. Well, that's what she's saying. So we could get Chris Martin to vouch for it? No, no, no. I, you know, I could see her going down that road. This is not a joke, by the way.

This is not me trying to be crass. This is news about what Gwyneth Paltrow's doing. Do you remember that company that you'd go in there and they'd take a mould of your anus? Yeah. And then they would make chocolates? Oh, no, I don't remember that. You don't remember that?

Why on earth would I remember that? No. I'm pretty sure we talked about it on this show. Don't remember. They go in, they make a cast, and then they make little chocolates out of that part of you, out of the mould, and then... Oh, do they sterilise the mould? And then they make a bouquet out of the chocolates to give to your significant other.

My question is, for you specifically, so Gwyneth Paltrow makes the candle smells like my vagina candle, so you make the this smells like my bum candle. Gwyneth Paltrow makes the this chocolate tastes like my vagina chocolate. Are we in the next couple of months going to have Brie Tomasell branded chocolate that says this tastes like my bum chocolate? I've already come up with the concept. Can we get some plaster and some plaster of Paris in here? And we'll make some moulds and we will be cooking with gas, literally.
