You're all good if you are, right? See, we're going to find out. You reckon if you've had chicken pox, you're good to go for monkey pox? Is that how you look at it? No, isn't it? You can't get the adult one if you've already had it as a kid? I don't know. You're not meant to be able to get chicken pox again, I think.

Yeah. But I didn't get monkey pox as a baby, so I reckon I'm a sitter for that. Bree and Clint. Bree and Clint. Tradie versus Lady. No Bree today. She's away sick. I'm a one-man band, but we will persevere.

Let's play Tradie versus Lady. Our ladies are on 32 wins for the year, and our tradies are on 46. Just keeping that margin out in front. It's not getting bigger. It's not getting smaller. They're just keeping it out there. Let's meet our lady first. She's from Mount Maunganui,

Congratulations, Carly. She's a lady. Oh, oh, oh, she's a lady. And did you know, the second you got that question correct, our tradie Tyson hung up. He left. No time for it.

Poor sportsmanship. He didn't even stick around to congratulate you, Car up. He left. No time for it. Poor sportsmanship. He didn't even stick around to congratulate you, Carly. Poor loser. That's not how you do it at the end of an apple. Where are the pregnant chicks at? It's a weird thing to say, eh?

It's a weird thing to start a conversation. Yo, where are the pregnant chicks at? Yeah, definitely. Don't do that again. Yeah, nah. I say this for a reason, okay? We're going to talk about cravings.

Before I do, our show has a wonderful sponsor in KFC. So out of respect and contractual obligation, the business in this next story will remain nameless. Okay. Okay, we won't name them. Yeah. Although they are ruled by a king. Nice.

So a major burger restaurant overseas, not here in New Zealand, has released a new range of food to help satisfy women's pregnancy cravings, including a vanilla ice cream and olive burger. That's one flavour, vanilla ice cream and olive burger. Ice cream burger? Yeah, I don't know. Anyway, it's a bit of a stunt for Mother's Day in Germany.

It could be a good idea, though. I mean, pregnant women have some intense cravings from time to time, right? I believe. They're selling burgers filled with, like, pregnancy food craved combos. They surveyed over 1,000 women in the country between the ages of 16 and 45. And fun fact, the survey said that pregnancy cravings occurred mostly in the second trimester and most frequently in the evening as well.

You know, when the only thing open is the gas station and you can only go and get like real shit food. So in Germany, you must be able to get pickled herring from a gas station because that's what one of their burgers has in it. Pickled herring is in there. Pickled herring. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Here's what they decided that pregnant women wanted.

So it's a regular beef burger, but then they add in the following things. So beef burger with cucumber and jam. Okay, I reckon that would be not bad. That doesn't seem too bad. Yeah. Cucumber, pickle. There's already pickle in there.

Yeah, and pickles can sometimes be a bit sweet. And then jam. Fine. We're fine with that. Cucumber, pickle, there's already pickle in there. Yeah, and pickles can sometimes be a bit sweet. And then jam, fine. We're fine with that. Sausage and chocolate ice cream. Cane. Sausage and chocolate ice cream. Again, keen to try something different.

Are you pregnant? This would be a weird way to explain it. I'm not allowed to ask you that in the workplace, eh? No, bro. Don't answer that question. Sausage with chocolate ice cream. You're keen. I'm not. I'm not keen.

Why are you adding sausage to a burger that's already got beef in it? Fish fingers and applesauce? Nah. I draw a line with fish fingers. Wait, fish fingers and applesauce. Fish fingers and applesauce inside a regular beef burger. Oh, flip. Sounds like all of these, get rid of the beef burger

and just make it the fish finger applesauce burger, and that could not be... It's kind of like a filet-o fish with applesauce instead of tartar sauce. Well, applesauce you would over there normally, like, have applesauce with meat. Yeah, but fish? Yeah, that's why I drew a line with that one.

Yeah, we're going to say no to that one. But they reckon that's what women want. We're talking pregnancy cravings at the moment. And the weird thing that you or your partner really, really, really, really wanted to eat when you were pregnant. Couldn't explain it. Wouldn't normally want to eat it. But when you were hapu, you were like, yeah, get it in my face. There are some good ones coming through on the text machine as well.

Someone said, I had a craving for straight toothpaste when I was pregnant. Just toothpaste. Just wanted to eat straight toothpaste. Gross. And bad for your tummy too. There's something in toothpaste that's not meant to be swallowed. Yeah, that just does not sound healthy for anyone. Or tasty.

But you'd have fresh breath though. Yeah, you would. All the time. Yeah. Chloe's here. Hi, Chloe. Hi. What was your pregnancy craving fresh breath, though. Yeah, you would. All the time. Yeah. Chloe's here. Hi, Chloe. Hi.

What was your pregnancy craving? Your weird one. Yeah, so anything that was like a cleaning product or laundry detergent, citrus, citrusy. Oh. I never actually ate it, but I had a, yeah, I really wanted to. Like cold power powder or something. Yeah, yeah. Or like, you know, like the surface sprays. Anything that smelled like orange or lemony.

But not oranges or lemons. You just wanted the cleaning product one, the artificial smell. Well, I did, but I compensated and I did end up eating a whole lot of sour mandarins instead. Did you have a really clean house during that time? Just so you could keep... Yeah, right. Yeah. Well, that's a bonus, I guess, right?

Yeah. Yeah, good. Okay, thanks, Chloe. Katie's here. Hi, Katie. Oh, hi. Did you have a weird pregnancy craving? Yeah, I kind of did.

It was a bit of an odd one. Anything that was like a burnt orange or a yellow colour. Ooh. So I craved a colour. You craved a colour? Weird, right? Because burnt orange craved a colour. You craved a colour? Well, weird, right? Because burnt orange is definitely a flavour. Well, yeah, I guess it could be.

I mean, I wanted to wear it. I had my baby shower in orange and yellow. I carried a bottle of mustard in my purse. Oh, my God. I've never heard of a visual craving before. Yeah, it was really bizarre. How do you feel about those colours now? You're not pregnant anymore?

No, not pregnant anymore. You can probably hear her in the background. Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, not pregnant anymore. But no, I wouldn't wear orange. You didn't go out and replace your entire wardrobe with burnt orange, did you? No, but her nursery definitely was.

Okay, that's so interesting. Thanks, Katie. Anna's here. Hi, that's so interesting. Thanks, Katie. Anna's here. Hi, Anna. Hi. I'm going to read you this one first, and you tell me if you can relate to it. Someone's texted in and said when they were pregnant,

they craved sunblock. They loved the smell of it, and they actually wanted to eat the sunblock. But they didn't eat it, but something inside them was telling them to eat it. Can you relate to that? Absolutely not. Give the baby like an SPF coating before it comes out.

What was yours? What was your craving? So mine was sour lollies, but I could never find anything that was sour enough. So I ended up buying a jar of citric acid and would just eat it by the spoonful. You're kidding. You went straight for the raw ingredient.

Yeah. Yeah, I had it in like a salt shaker as well and I just sprinkled it on my food and stuff. How were your taste buds? Did you burn them all off your tongue? Numerous times I would make my like gums bleed. Oh my God. I just couldn't stop.

Yeah, did you talk to anybody like a nutritionist or a doctor about, because it all means your body is craving some kind of nutrient, right? Yeah, yeah. So what was that? What does citric acid mean? I don't know. I didn't really look into it that much.

You were sweet. Yeah, just citric acid, you're good to go. Yeah, now I'm full of blood. Yeah, I'll just keep eating it. Yeah, just go. Thank you. Let's talk to Alicia. Hi, Alicia.

Hello, how are you? Good. I'm going to give you one that will gross you out that's just been texted in. Oh, no. Someone said when they were pregnant, they loved smelling the dust from the vacuum cleaner. Oh, glad it was not my house. I've got too many animals.

Also, most of that dust is like dead skin cells, you know? Oh, yum. And when you sniff it, some of it's bound to go up your nose. Anyway, don't worry about that. What was your pregnancy craving? Mine was flannels I don't know why I would go around the shops

And just be salivating I'd have to go buy new flannels And I'd get home I'd wash them And I'd have a shower And I'd pull the thread out with my teeth And I just had to eat them It was the weirdest

Oh my god Like something took over my body You know I can't relate I've never craved a flannel before, but I know, but I do know the taste of flannel. Like, I can remember it from, like, sucking on the flannel when I was a kid in the bath and you pull it. You're the only one that's ever

related to me with anything close to that. Really? I know the exact flavour that you would have been craving. I've never craved it, but I know the flavour of flannel. My goodness, you have just blown my mind. There you go.

Yeah, well, maybe I, well, okay. Did it go away once you had your baby? Definitely. Did you replace your wardrobe

with all flannelette stuff? Oh my goodness, we could have. We're spending a lot of money on flannels, I'll tell you that much. Hey, better than sniffing the vacuum cleaner, eh?

Oh, I think so. That's too weird. Stay safe out there. Thank you, Alicia. And there you go. If you're pregnant at the moment and you're craving some weird stuff, you're not alone.

Just be careful with the ones that you commit to. You know the ones that you shouldn't actually taste. You know. I trust you. Don't worry about it. Bree and Clint.

Okay, here we go From iHeartRadio This is The Latest Live from LA with Dean McCarthy Dean told us yesterday about how Liam Payne's engagement had fallen apart Well, it's gotten worse He's already moved on, right Dean? He has, well that's what it appears So he was seen photographed holding hands with this absolutely gorgeous model.

Her name's Alana something. You know, just the hottest thing you've ever seen. One of the hottest things you've ever seen. And this is just yesterday that we were talking about. I shouldn't laugh. I'm not laughing because this is funny. I'm laughing at just how ridiculous the situation is, really. So basically, he and the fiancée, the gorgeous fiancée, broke up.

Of course, as we talked about yesterday, there were these photos floating around of him canoodling someone else. And that was really devastating for his fiancée to see. And they're done and dusted. Even though her friends actually came out and said, no, no, no, they're not completely done. She's still got things at his house and things like that. And then today, Liam photographed with this other gorgeous model holding hands, very clearly holding hands, not like passing each other, you know. Yeah. Not high-fiving or not like an angle.

It was literally holding hands. So there you go. It seems he has moved on. I don't know, as everyone's asking today, is that girl the one in the photos? Oh, interesting. I can't confirm that. That's brutal.

When someone moves on quickly It is brutal Quite often they'll keep it on the down low For a while before they go public But for him to just be out there getting photographed Because the paparazzi don't sleep over there either The minute that the breakup was confirmed They've got photos of Maya His fiance's car

Still at Liam's house And he's out there with another girl You know what? Can I just say, that's just a low blow. Yeah. An unnecessary low blow. He doesn't need to be holding hands with someone the day after that, humiliating for his ex. Whatever happened, happened.

But I just think that that feels like it's rubbing in her face because they're like really clearly holding hands. It's not like some spy cam where they got him in some corner of some room. No, no, no. He's walking down the street. So I don't know. I just thought it was a low blow. Unnecessary.

Yeah, well put, Dean. I agree with you there. That is the latest on Liam Payne live out of Los Angeles with our Hollywood correspondent, Dean McCarthy. Bree and Clint. I want to talk about relationship tattoos. A very good photographer and celebrity child, Brooklyn Beckham, has revealed his new tattoo on

Instagram. He's of course David and Victoria Beckham's eldest son and he got married earlier this year to actress Nicola Peltz who, fun fact, her family is richer than his family. Did you know that? Yeah, I did know that but only after the wedding. What has she been in? Transformers.

That's why I didn't know of her before the wedding. Hey. Well, I mean, his family's no stranger to getting tattoos. No, not at all. But also, just on the money thing, he had to sign a prenup her way. You would think anyone marrying Brooke LeBeckin would have to sign the prenup to say you won't take David and Victoria's money.

Uh-uh. He had to say he wouldn't take her family's money. That is so cool. Yeah. What a boss. He's got. Uh-uh. He had to say he wouldn't take her family's money. That is so cool. Yeah. What a boss. He's got a tattoo for her. The tattoo is on the inside of his upper arm and it is his entire wedding vows.

Like a full page tattoo. It's massive. Are we talking like A4? Like his whole arm. Like when he wrote it out, if he wrote it out by hand It would be a whole A4 bit of paper I'll read you some of it

These are his wedding vows Nicola, when you walked down the aisle You took my breath away And you looked so beautiful tonight and always Let me start by saying The words cannot even describe my love for you You just Just looking at you

My future And it feels like a dream You are my world And I continue to fall more in love with you Every single day Do you want more? Okay, well I have a question Having you, my future, and it feels like a dream. You are my world and I continue to fall more in love with you every single day. Do you want more? Okay, well I have a question, Clint. Having you in my life is the best thing that has ever happened to me as you have made me become

the man I am today. Please stop. Okay, Clint. As someone... I have been looking forward to this day for so long because today is the day I get to marry you. Yes, I do. I marry you. Yes. Make it stop. My forever babe. My love and my best friend. Yes, I do. I marry you. Yes, make it stop. My forever babe. My love and my best friend. Anyway, it goes on.

That's half of the tattoo. Oh, my goodness. Have you read his coffee table book? I've seen some photos from it, though. It's exactly the same. I want to know, as someone who has had to read out wedding vows and has had wedding vows read to them, what do you rate Brooklyn Beckham's wedding vows? Oh, wedding vows read to them yes what do you rate

Brooklyn's Beckham's wedding vows oh look they're very personal I don't want to have a go at the guy could have done with a few jokes

I think because weddings are very serious unless you have fun with them true you know you're standing there

in front of your friends and family in these expensive clothes at this expensive place about to eat this expensive food, have a bit of a laugh. Have a bit of a laugh. But I mean, that might be them.

That's totally their prerogative. You also don't want a joke tattoo. True. I don't want a wedding vows tattoo, period. Never say never, Clint. He's 23. She's 27.

Yeah, he's 23 and he's married. That wasn't shade at you, by the way, Anastasia. No, that's perfectly fine. Anastasia's going to be 25 this year, not even close to marriage. Nicola was, what, 27? 27. Yeah, I've got time. You've got time.

You can get one of the other Beckhams. Yeah, I just need to become a billionaire. It's very sweet. The whole thing is very sweet. And I'm not saying that they're not going to be together forever. That's for life, that marriage. But if they do break up, he's going to need a new arm.

You know, you talk about getting tattoos covered up or tattoos removed. I'm telling you, the inside of his arm from his armpit down to his elbow, that is the tattoo. It's the whole way. But you said that forever, so it's all cheesy, baby. Bree and Clint.

We're talking tattoos. Relationship tattoos for relationships that no longer exist. Look, there is no shame in this. We are being overrun with people who are in this situation. So many calls, so many texts. So many texts, too. Yeah. So many texts too. Yeah. It's very common, I think, in the throes of love to go, this

is forever. I need to show how forever this is by inking it on my body. But like getting a sleeve of someone's face, that is... That's full on. That's full on. Yeah. And that's for life. We got a text about that. Someone said my friend had his girlfriend's face tattooed on his sleeve.

He admitted that he stayed with her longer than he wanted to because of the tattoo on his arm. Now they're broken up, and it's a story he tells his new dates to show how super committed he is. I like that. He's not, though. He's not.

He's committed to the tattoo. He's not committed to the person because they broke up. Oh, well, you know. Well, look, he's thought of an inventive way to spin it. He's got another though. He's not. He's committed to the tattoo. He's not committed to the person because they broke up. Oh, well, you know. Well, look, he's thought of an inventive way to spin it. He's got another arm. Totally. He's got another arm. He can do it again.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. That should be on his Tinder profile. He's like, do you want to be the other arm? No. Let's talk to some relationship tattoo people. Gemma's here. Hi, Gemma. Hi, guys.

How are you? Good, good, good. Did you get a relationship tattoo? I definitely did, but not a face. So basically, I was 17 or 18. That's when all the best decisions are made, eh? 17 and 18. Oh, definitely.

That's when you definitely know something's for life at 17 or 18, eh? Hey, come on. It was my first proper boyfriend, my first love. I get it. Okay? And so we're both Pisces. So I was like, I'll get the Pisces symbol and then I'll get my birth date round one, you know, back of the fish and his birth date round the other, and he absolutely loved it.

Yeah, of course he did. Yeah, it was cool. It wasn't his name or anything, just a birth date. How long did the relationship last? We were on and off for, I don't know, it wasn't like two years and then I got the tattoo and then we'd last another two years. Could you meet your next partner on that date or something to try and make the date mean something else to you?

I don't know. Well, funny story is we broke up and I started dating his best friend. Oh. And his best friend didn Oh. And his best friend didn't quite like that tattoo. It was just on the inside of my hip. Have you still got it? Have you still got the tattoo? Well, as a present

for his best friend, I got the birth dates covered over with some swirly stuff. Oh my god. So yes, I still have the tattoo and I still talk to the original, the first guy. Yeah. Yeah, like, we're really good.

He's married with four kids and whatnot. But, yeah, I've still got the tattoo, and it's just memories, but, yeah. Good for you, Gemma. You got it done, and it's still there. It's a life lived, right? Erin's here. Hi, Erin. Hi, guys.

How's it going? Good. You got a relationship tattoo to tell us about? I do indeed. Go on. I thought it would be a great idea after my son was born to get a tree of life on my back from the top of my shoulder to almost my full lower back with my son's name

and then underneath his father's name. Needless to say, not with the father anymore and actually in a wonderful new relationship and about to get married next year so can you prune that branch out of the tree? it's under the tree it's a full name

he's always going to be your son's father though right? no matter what 100% but I think new life think new marriage and you know, new life, new marriage. So are you adding the new guy to the tree? Well see, the funny thing is the year

I got it, my family all went to write on their names and vivid on it and we're like, well if it's a family tree, let's get in on it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Once you start it, you have to follow through, Erin, I guess. Okay, thank you. One more from Natalie.

Hi, Natalie. Hi, mate. How are you going? Good. What's your relationship tattoo? Tattoos. Oh, okay. Relationships?

Two tattoos, two relationships. I'm one of those people that you call a really slow learner. Talk me through them. What's the first one? I've got pretty much block letters across my shoulders of one of my ex-partner's names. Okay, yeah. And then I have another ex, his last name tattooed under my boob. Oh, okay.

Any plans to get rid of them Or turn them into something else Is it a word you can change I'm actually in the process of getting The one on the back half changed But it's a long slow big painful process What are you changing it to I'm having Well there's only basically

Wings that I can cover it with Because of how it's shaped So yeah It's been there for a while. I'm 36 and I got it when I was 20. But, hey, I don't have to see it. So... Dr. Carl, he's the TikTok doc from Australia.

Do we know who he is? Yeah, he's on like Triple J all the time, right? Yeah, he's a bit of a legend. He's got that one song. He's got that song, that's right. G'day, g'day, g'day, g'day, g'day, g'day, g'day, Dr. Carl here. To talk about some vax facts, now is the time to get vaccinated. Banger.

That's a suck, Joe. You've got to wait. We've got to get off now. We'll wait for the drop. Yeah, yeah. He did a lot of good work on TikTok around COVID-19. And promoting the vaccine. Yeah.

Vaccines for COVID have been through the same rigorous tests, tests, tests, tests, tests, tests, tests, tests, tests. Shits on the dead-earth, Bloomfield One. All right, careful. Oh, sorry. Book an appointment as soon as you can. Get vaccinated. Oh.

You're off. Banger. Anyway, he's not talking about vaccines at the moment. He's talking about milk. Okay, he's done a podcast with Triple J and he's revealed which of the modern milk alternatives is all kaka. Is it just one? Well, no, sorry, the most.

Okay. According to him, one of them is just really, really expensive water from a nutritional point of view. Yeah. I mean, whatever you enjoy, you enjoy. Right. So that's fine. If you like the taste of it, that's fine.

But if you're looking for nutrition, which is essentially why you drink milk, you're not getting it from a certain milk. So let's go through them first. What is there in this weird modern world we live in oat milk oat milk's my milk of choice almond milk almond milk's not vegan by the way

did you know that because they have to use bees to pollinate the almond trees oh I didn't know that for the same reason that honey's not vegan oh that's true it's a byproduct coconut milk soy milk Oh, I didn't know that. For the same reason that honey's not vegan. Oh, that's true. It's a by-product.

Coconut milk. Coconut. Soy milk. Yeah. Cashew milk. Good. That's getting niche. Cashew milk's too far?

Okay, no. Cashew's my second. Well, one of those is BS, according to Dr. Carl. Or hemp milk. Yeah. Oh, my goodness. The most environmental one. That's a good one. Hemp milk gets you wasted, eh? Gets you stoned.

No, it doesn't. Hemp people hate it when you say that. No, the milk that's all rubbish, according to Dr. Carl, almond milk. Yeah. Have you seen videos of how it's made? No.

You just blend up a few almonds with some water. Yeah, that's what he's saying. That's all it is. He has said, Dr. Carla said, almonds are loaded with nutrition and you'd think that almond milk would be good, but somehow they've managed to extract all the nutrition. Almond milk, like Anastasia said,

is mostly made up of water and it's the result of soaking almonds in the water and then blending that mixture together. But some brands of almond milk have as low as 2% actual almonds. No. 2%! Once I was going away. There's water with a hint of almonds.

I was going away tramping and I bought some almond milk, like, you know, dehydrated milk powder. Yeah. I bought some dehydrated almond milk powder. Oh, my God. Do you know what it was? Was it just a bag of almonds? It was just ground up almonds.

Yeah, you should have just taken some almonds. I know. I totally got scammed there. Well, there you go. If you're looking for a milk alternative, maybe avoid almonds. Don't go almond. Try breast. Well, I didn't mean to play that after you said breast.

That was Anastasia's fault. By now, you would have heard about monkey pox, probably. But what is it? And should you be worried about it? Well, here to talk us through it, as she always does, is microbiologist Susie Wiles. Dr. Susie Wiles, good afternoon. Good afternoon.

Thank you for giving us your time and putting this in words we can all understand, as you always do. You're a national treasure, Dr Susie. So what is monkeypox and where did it come from? So it's a virus and it's very closely related to the virus that causes smallpox. So we know about this. It's not something new, but there haven't been huge numbers of cases of it before and it's mostly the cases are found in Central and

West Africa and occasionally it's popped up in other countries usually associated with somebody who's travelled from those countries and then travelled home. But what we're experiencing right now is something quite unusual where there is a very large outbreak. Well, I think everything compared to COVID is a number, but we're up to a few hundred cases now, which we've never seen anything like this outside of Western Central Africa. And so, yeah, it's sort of quite a few countries in Europe and still not quite clear at the moment how widespread it is. But cases are popping up

in Canada, in the USA, in Australia, sort of all associated with Europe. It's in Australia. It's as close as Australia. Yep. So we could certainly expect cases to turn up here, you know, with people who've travelled from overseas. Oh yay, that's something to look forward to. Why is it called monkeypox? So it's from a family of viruses called the pox viruses, and this one was first identified from a monkey in 1958. Monkeys are basically the same as us, kind of susceptible to it,

so they're not thought to be the normal host. It's actually not really known where it really lives in nature. It might be rodents or something. But the reason it's called a pox virus is because people who have this virus end up with this sort of rash where the rash kind of turns into these sort of fluid-filled kind of little things. Like pus bubble kind of things on your skin, eh? Yes.

Yeah. And so this is sort of, it's through the contact with the fluid from those little pox things and from kind of bodily fluids and really close contact with people, that's how it spreads. Right. So a lot of places will like to sensationalise a lot of things, and I think fear sells a lot of the time. Do we need to be really worried about this? Is monkeypox the next COVID-19?

No, it's not. I mean, it transmits in a very different way. It's not as transmittable as COVID. But, you know, it's certainly something that if people have it, they will certainly need to stop, you know, transmitting to other people. So we know how to do that. And also, you know, kind of make themselves known really

so that they can get treatment. So there's two versions of this monkeypox. There's sort of one that's a little bit more deadly than the other. This is the not so deadly version. But, you know But it still can cause quite serious disease in some people. So it's really important that people get checked out. How do you catch it? How is it transmitted? So it's through contact with the fluid or bodily fluids from people or really close contact with kind of the droplets and face-to-face contact. So it's really close contact with kind of the droplets and, you know, face-to-face contact. So it's really close contact with people or with the kind of bedding or, you know,

blankets or things that infected people have been using. So that's sort of how it transmits. Will we have to get vaccinated against monkeypox? There is a vaccine. The smallpox vaccine actually works really well for this. But what tends to happen is that if somebody has been identified as being, you know, a contact, they may well be vaccinated rather than just mass vaccinated. Right. Case by case. It's not likely to be something that you're going to need to have.

But what's really important is, you know, so it's got a quite long incubation period, up to three weeks. People aren't generally infectious then. But if they start to get those sort of flu-like symptoms and then they start to get this rash, really important that you go and see somebody about or call up your health professional and say, this is what I've got, especially if you've sort of been in Europe recently. Wow. Okay. Fascinating.

Thank you for that. It's put a, I guess it's explained it to us in a way that we can understand. Is it treatable? Like if you get monkeypox, how do you treat it? There are some antivirals and so I think that's all being looked at at the moment whether we have access to those in New Zealand and stuff. As I say, this is something

that only really pops up in countries outside of Africa so everybody sort of, you know and actually this secular version there's really only been a few thousand cases total in the world that we know of. So that sort of thing is all being looked at at the moment. What access do we have?

What works? That kind of thing. There you go. That is microbiologist Dr. Susie Wiles. Thank you so much. My pleasure. We have at the moment a fill-in producer helping us out. Producer Ben's headed off to Australia.

So Sous Chef Sam is pushing some buttons for us. Hi, Sam. Oh, where are you? Right here. That one there, is that you there? I think that is. Yeah, I said he was pushing the buttons and so that was his fault.

You've got interesting stories for a guy who's only what? 21? 21. Yeah. You've told me about a few different jobs that you've done in the past so far. Yeah. But yesterday you told me about something that I think

might be the grossest job that I've ever heard of. Really? Yeah, I think so. You've never heard of anything worse? Especially for a young guy too. Right. When did you do this? Before you say what it was, when did you do this job?

It was in my first year of broadcasting school, so 2020. So you did this as a part-time job? Yeah. Just to pay the bills? Just to pay the bills. You didn't go and work in a bar? No. You just thought a part-time job? Yeah. Just to pay the bills? Just to pay the bills. You didn't go and work in a bar? No. You just thought you'd do this one? Yeah. So tell us the job. So it sounds really fancy but my job title was I was an endoscopic technician but really that just means I had the responsibility of cleaning the big long cameras that they poke at people's bums.

You're a butt camera cleaner. Yeah. That was your job. That's a bit more accurate way of putting it. Do you have to have a qualification to be a butt camera cleaner? Nope, just walking off the street. And just clean them. Yeah.

Do they have a whole lot of cameras there waiting for you each day to clean up? So you'd walk in and- You don't clean it in real time, mate. It doesn't come straight out of the butt and into your hands. Oh, yeah, basically. Really? Yeah. So the camera might still be warm from the butt.

Yeah, yeah. So you do, they give it, they hand it to you once they're finished. You do a little bit of cleaning on the trolley in the procedure room. Then you take it out the back and they've got really skinny, long, like a big sink.

Yeah, okay. It's really skinny and long and you sort of lay it down and you do all your stuff in there. Because it's like, and I'm you sort of lay it down you do all your stuff in there because it's like and I'm not not having a go at the process itself

I mean it's it's important work but it's like am I right in thinking it's like one of those long cameras they stick down a drain to see where the

block of the drain is and you've got the it's like a big long bendy stick with a camera on the end of it that goes up somebody's butt and you've got the control at one end

with the dials and you twist it and the the end of it that goes up somebody's butt. You've got the control at one end with the dials and you twist it and the little end of the camera like curls round. Like some kind of terrifying worm from a Terminator movie that curls up your butt. Well, that thing that they inject

into you on the Matrix. Yeah, yeah, that thing. It looks a lot like that thing. So you had to clean them? Yeah. How did you know when a butt camera was clean? Basically once you'd done

all the steps, eh? Because like visually when they come out they look pretty clean but you don't want to trust that and i'm sure the next person who gets that camera used with them would not appreciate how did you get into this line of work like was there an ad on seek and you were like butt camera cleaner that sounds like a bit of me no i was just looking for um part-time work i worked there with my my sister actually yeah and um we had a family friend that was a nurse at the clinic and they said they're always looking for casuals to be endoscopic technicians and so we just kind of applied fascinating yeah does it pay well to be a butt camera cleaner um no no no it's it's the

kind of thing because it's unqualified is that right yeah yeah, it's the kind of thing. Because it's unqualified. Is that right? Yeah, basically. Man, is it the kind of job that you like? For an unqualified job. Yeah, yeah, sorry. For an unqualified job, it's weirdly high stakes. Totally. Because these things are not cheap. No.

And like one of my first days there, I get there and they're telling me the story of this guy that didn't do it properly. Yeah, yeah. And he drowned the scope. He drowned the camera. Because you put it in water, but you make sure that the water doesn't get to the bits where it's not supposed to go.

Yeah, right. And he drowned it. And that's, you know, in the ballpark of $100,000 down the drain. Oh, that's an expensive GoPro. Yeah. That's a lot. Well, good on you. Okay, good on you.

You've just got to make ends meet. It's not a job I'd put my hand up for. And you're exactly right. You've got to take the work when it comes around, right? You can't always choose the job that you take. I mean, butt camera operator is. Not operator. Operator is qualified. You have a qualification for that.

Bree and Clint. We're just talking to Sous Chef Sam, our fill-in producer at the moment, who was an endoscopy technician, is that what it was? Endoscopic technician. Endoscopic technician. Yeah. Which in layman's terms is? Butt camera cleaner.

Yeah. He cleaned the long cameras that went up people's butts to check their colons and their intestines and things like that. You said it was more boring than gross. Yeah, there was a lot of standing around. And you just, I mean mean you would watch the procedure on the screen and you'd see what went on but a lot of them were very routine

you know, kind of 20 minutes just get it done. 20 minutes up there? Yeah. Okay, we want to know, have you had a worse job than being a butt camera cleaner? Someone's texted and said, I'm a vet nurse and I love my job but if I had a dollar for every day I didn't get animal bodily fluids

and animal poo on me, I'd have zero dollars. Every single day. Brad's here. G'day, Brad. Hi there. How are you going? Yeah, not too bad, not too bad. Have you had a worse job than Sous Chef Sam, the butt camera cleaner?

So this wasn't actually me. This was my sister, my little sister. Her first job was picking sanitary products out of the drainage system at a waste treatment centre. Oh, no. Does somebody have to do that by hand? Rubber gloves. Well, yeah, I know, but I mean manually.

Does somebody have to do that manually, that job? Yes, yes. And it was her first job, you said? Yes. That would put me off working. That would send me straight to the dole. I'd be like, I don't care. If this is what the workforce is like.

I'm just going to pretend to look for jobs. Yes, sign me out. Thanks, Brad. This person wants to be anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hi, how's it going? I was talking before about my friend who was a Portolo emptier. You've got experience in this field too.

Yeah, so it's not actually too bad of a job doing that because you kind of stand back and just put the hose in. But it was a particular time when I did it. It was after the Christchurch earthquake. Right. Everybody was living off portaloos. Everywhere. Yeah.

But somewhere, somehow it got out there. I don't know where or how. That to help us, it's better if you do your business in a plastic bag and then put the plastic bag down the pulloo hole. And so my job became pulling these plastic bags out, having to open them up so then you can suck everything out. Can you not just suction up the plastic bag?

Yeah, can't you just suck the bag in and be done with it? No, because you couldn't suck the plastic bag because, you know, this is... Oh, what a horrific rumour to get out. That would have ruined your life. You would have been just shouting from every street corner, stop putting your poo in a plastic bag! Yeah, we tried to get on every radio station in New Zealand

to stop doing this. Oh, my God. Yeah, you could stand that before, but then you had to really get in there, you know? Are you still in the poo industry at the moment? No, I got out of that pretty quickly. What do you do now? I work in hospital, so yeah, I keep my hands well away from that.

Okay, thank you, Anonymous. We appreciate that. Someone texted and said, Sous Chef Sam had to clean the butt camera. I have to clean the actual butt because I'm a caregiver. You people, you do the Lord's work, honestly, and you do not get paid enough for what you do. So, yes, that's good perspective. Thank you.

Francois is here. G'day, Francois. Hello, how are you doing, Clay? We're going good, Francois. Do you think you've had a worse job than Sous Chef Sam, the butt camera cleaner? I think so. What did you do?

I was a crime scene cleaning technician. Another technician. So you'd go in there after, what, after murders? Anything you can think of that gone wrong, I can clean it. Oh, man.

What a shocking job. Where was this? Was this in New Zealand or were you laughing? Was it in New Zealand or in South Africa? South Africa. Where was this? Was this in New Zealand or were you laughing? Was it in New Zealand or in South Africa? South Africa. Is that worse? It's a different climate, so things change faster and smells grow quicker and degradation. You would have to, because people like to go home and sort of debrief on their day and your partner says, how was work?

You'd want to keep a lot of that stuff to yourself, wouldn't you, Francois? Like, you would see some stuff. Yeah, I've seen my share of horror. What do you do now? Did you get out of that industry? Oh, hell yes. I live in Auckland now. I actually sell truck parts.

Oh, you sell truck parts. Very, yeah, very sanitary. Yeah, bit of an upgrade. Hey, thanks for calling, Francois. We appreciate it, man. Thanks, guys. Oh, just before you go, does it pay well to be a crime scene cleaner?

Yeah. It does? Oh. And if you committed a crime, would you know how to clean up the crime scene really well? I can make it as if there's nothing that's ever happened. There he is, everybody. That's our friend Francois.

Maybe don't say too much more. Okay. Bree and Clint. Bree's away today, but that's not going to stop me doing some fashion news. It's to do with Love Island. Anastasia,

are you a Love Islander? We're talking about this. I love reality TV to the point you get too addicted yeah yeah would you go on love island oh shit no would you not i do whenever the current season's on my way of like kind of watching the show is i follow them all and i just judge their outfits if all the guys in love island own ford raptors yeah should be there yeah ranger yeah ranger anyway that's not about that's not about tradies that Anastasia wants to date.

No. It's about Love Island fashion. Because the last winner, she actually worked for Topshop, and I feel like she was so stylish that she got a lot of votes. Millie. Interesting. Millie Court, yeah. Interesting.

Well, Love Island have announced that it's coupling with global resale site eBay to dress its contestants for the villa in the upcoming eighth season. Eighth season. Wow. They usually get dressed by... Fast fashion outlets. Fast fashion, like ASOS. Pretty Little Thing.

Pretty Little Thing. ASOS. Boohoo. Because part of it is that you can go and shop the look of Love Island, right? You see the Love Islander, you like wearing an outfit. And then you can go and shop the look of Love Island, right? You see the Love Islander you like wearing an outfit, and then you can go and buy the outfit that they're wearing. Incredible sales model, but terrible for the planet. Bad for the environment, and it just promotes fast fashion

because they're wearing the outfits once, and that's what you want to do. You want to mirror that. They're just walking clothes horses. Well, now they're going to dress them in secondhand clothes. That's so sick. They also are giving them the opportunity to wear their own clothes. That's what I want to see. Sure, anybody can dress you.

I want to know what your real wardrobe looks like. Yeah. I want to see a guy on there in a pair of Warriors stubbies and like a Woodstock bourbon singlet that he wore to RMV three years ago. I want to know your real personality through your clothes. Well, I mean, those guys on that show, they're not really wearing shirts much, so it would just be the pair of stubbies.

But yeah, I would be so interested because sometimes they all look the same because they're all being obviously clothed by the same company. All the guys, I can tell you exactly what they wear, tight white jeans, really tight, and a colourful party shirt. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That's it, eh?

Well, now they're gonna wear uh secondhand clothes and their own clothes it's a good idea but i do already see the cast of love island just wearing like the guys they go cool i can wear vintage clothes yeah the whole cast gonna wear um secondhand rod and gun hat a gucci monogram t-shirt yeah um uh ralph lauren rugby jersey from the 90s or ccc rugby jersey from the 90s yeah yeah that's true um and what else a beat up pair of i don't know i guess it's a good move in the right direction yeah yeah although are they going to send the contestants onto ebay to find their stuff or is it just going to be some you know bottom of the ladder employee good point it's a really good point.

What I will be doing, though... Just eight hours a day trawling through eBay, just like, where are these clothes? I will be submitting my Trade Me link, though, because I've got a lot of shit clothes that I need to get rid of. Do you dream of living in a world run by robots? What could go wrong, right? Give absolute control to the robots.

Sounds fine. Sounds fine to me. I haven't seen Terminator. It will be sweet as. The Dyson company, as in the people who make those vacuum cleaners, which have got lasers in them now. Have you seen Dyson vacuums

that have got lasers in them? What? They just keep adding shit to it, like, this one's got a laser, so that you have to upgrade. Insane that, very good vacuum cleaners. They actually do more than vacuum cleaners, and they are now looking at the robots they can create that will take care of the housework that you don't want to do. I set Sous Chef Sam, our film producer, the job of going through the best robots they're producing and bringing us

some stats. So what are we in for? What does the future of house robots look like Sam? Basically they're just wanting to create robots that make people's lives easier or they think will make people's lives easier. You know, be doing jobs for them, just the basic little mundane stuff that we apparently can't be bothered doing

and so... Not apparently definitely can't be bothered doing. Well apparently, definitely can't be bothered doing. Well, that's what he talks about in the first clip we've got here. It's basically he's made a robot for parents to clean up after their kids. Oh, yeah. There's a big future in robotics, performing chores for people and improving people's daily lives. I've spent half my life cleaning up after my kids,

and it's pretty tedious. What does it do? Does it pick up toys and stuff? It's just a big, grabby hand. As a parent who spends half my life cleaning up after children, perfect. Okay, I understand. Can it pick my daughter up out of the high chair,

take her into the bathroom, and wash spaghetti off her face? Because if there's a robot that does that, take my money. Okay, but there's also, have you not seen that ad on TV where literally the same thing happens, baby in the high chair, spaghetti on the face,

dad goes away to start, you know, get stuff to clean up and the dog licks it off. You don't need a robot, you just need a dog. Our cats actually do a good job of licking the floor clean. Yeah, so there's that one. Okay, what else have they got? So it turns out this video that you sent me is basically a big like job you know it's they're looking for i think he says 700 engineers

and there's a problem as to why hiring for them is so hard the tricky thing is that we can't overtly go out there in the world and say hey this is what we're doing because it's very top secret this is why we want to reveal a little bit more to the world. We're after 700 engineers. Unbelievable. 700 engineers. I know. I want to know what their secrets are.

The minute you say that, I'm intrigued. Is that James Dyson, by the way? Is that Mr. Dyson? No, that's his son. I think it's his son. Interesting. Okay. Any other details about the robots and what they're going to do for us?

Well, I think this last clip is just, this is what happens when you give British people too much money to make what they want. Over here, this is a very, very exciting rig. So what this arm is doing is it's able to map that chair in three dimensions. So this means I'll never ever find crisps down the back of my sofa a vacuum cleaner robot just for sucking up chip crumbs well no no it's basically that's what i thought it was it looked like it had one of the um vacuum cleaner heads on the end of it and just kind of go around and do a really thorough job but no it's just like

this fancy camera that then maps this whole chair out in space. But he's just like, oh, so, you know, now I can never, I don't know how it even relates, but sometimes. It's top secret. It's top secret. It's all you need to know. And the other thing you need to know, if it's made by Dyson, it'll be fricking expensive when it comes out. So expensive.

So expensive. But all the influencers will have one, you know, and you'll have to have one. That's the future. Dean's here. A shocking day for America yesterday. A horrific day for the whole world, actually. Everybody was devastated by that. At the same time, our Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern, is in the States and doing interviews.

She's been on late night TV, Dean. She has. She has been very well received. They love her over here, actually. I think we've talked about that before. She went on the Stephen Colbert show and she got such an incredible reception when she discussed how New Zealand reacted to a massacre in New Zealand. Have a listen to this.

Here's some audio of Jacinda Ardern on late night TV. How did you get that done? Or how did you New Zealanders get that done? Because I know it was general consensus. I can only speak to our experience in New Zealand. We are very pragmatic people. When we saw something like that happen, everyone said never again. And so then it was incumbent on us as politicians to respond to that.

Now we have legitimate needs for guns in our country for things like pest control and to protect our biodiversity but you don't need a military style semi-automatic weapon to do that. That comment there at the end got a huge applause from the audience in the studio didn't it Dane? Yeah go and watch the clip online It was very well received I think everyone listening loved How she responded and discussed that So yeah, she's incredible They're kind of very inspiring

It takes big cojones to go on American TV And talk about gun control Because Americans love their guns Unfortunately, well there's a portion of Americans Who love their guns and even when something like that happens They still don't want any sort of Americans who love their guns and even when something like that happens, they still don't want any sort of control put on their guns, right? Yeah, and you know what?

It's so wild to have that conversation with someone. One of my friends lives in Texas and it's so hard to explain how they really do believe it to be their right. Maybe I shouldn't go into it right now but it's really, yes, just as you said,

yes, people here very much believe that they should leave it as it is, even though the statistics and everything is horrific. Horrific. Heartbreaking. Unbelievable. It's hard to comprehend, especially down here in New Zealand. ZM's Brand Clint on Insta, Facebook, TikTok and live weekdays from 3 on ZM Feed by KFC
