Buzzy.
Did you guys know that?
No.
Pez candy is so disappointing.
So the Pez.
No, I love Pez candy.
I'll tell you why it's disappointing to me.
Because on the ads, the candy shoots out.
When you laugh at the head, the candy.
No, it just slides forward and you have to pull it out yourself.
Right, right.
I'm not a fan of that sort of candy.
Did you guys know babies are born without kneecaps?
Buzzy.
Babies have cartilagious...
Cartilage.
No.
I know what the word cartilage looks like, Anastasia.
They have these structures in their knees which turn to bone by the age of four.
Babies can knees us.
What do you guys think is the most shoplifted food in the world?
It'll be Twinkie.
It'll be something from the Peckinmac style.
Toothpaste.
Cheese.
Actually, I think I did know that.
It's expensive.
Yeah.
And it's delicious.
If you're stealing cheese, where are you sticking it?
Somewhere that's not warm. not your warmest zone.
Yeah, right down the front of your pants.
Nah.
It's most common.
I've seen in movies where the girls put up their skirt.
Is that quite common?
Is that the most common?
I've never put anything up my skirt.
What movies are you watching?
The ones where a girl steals a meat pack.
Shove it up your pussy with a Wawa brush.
No, not up the pussy. Who are you watching these girls like a meat pack Shove it up your pussy with a wah-wah brush No not up
Who are you watching these girls shove a meat pack up there
You know when you're in a movie and they're like
Oh damn we don't even have money for food
And they're like whoop
No
Oh damn I don't even have money for food
Quick stick the salami stick up my dress
Quick shove it up there
I'm talking about like a six pack of sausage
I have a salami stick
No actually that's worse
Yeah god I love a salami.
You know at Christmas time it's a tradition where I just buy a stick of salami
and just eat it with nothing else.
I do that quite a lot.
Yeah, I just don't put it with anything else.
Are you talking like one of the, like how big, like one of the?
Yeah, about that, yeah.
Like a whole salami.
Yeah, yeah.
Like all those ones, those medium-sized ones are quite big.
Like the size of this mic.
Yeah, yeah, it's quite...
Your poor guts.
Remember to pull the...
The plastic off.
The coating off of it.
The wax paper.
Yeah, the wax paper.
You don't want to eat that.
You can't eat that, though.
Butchery things.
I have eaten a lot of that.
I'm saying a lot.
You can't eat that.
The worst ones are the ones that have got the string on them.
Oh, yeah.
And you have to cut the string off.
My noonoo used to make ones with string on them.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah.
The goat. Oh, that nightmare is. My noonoo used to make ones with string on them. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Big goat.
Oh, that nightmare is watching my noonoo make salami.
It's not a good time for a 10-year-old kid.
No.
Why?
What's the process?
Oh, you don't want to know.
Grinding up the meat.
Well, where he catches the pig and kills the pig in front of you.
Oh, or he does it right from...
Everything from scratch.
From farm to table.
Yeah, from farm to... Yeah, from farm to plate. You wouldn't have wanted to work in the butchery right from everything, from scratch. From farm to table. Yeah, from farm to
You wouldn't have wanted to work in the butchery then?
No, never ever. Farm life, eh?
Not keen. Farm life.
So much fun. You've got to learn one day,
kid. Well, guess what? I ain't grown up on a
farm and I've never had to watch a pig be slaughtered
and I'm fine. I watched a horse one time
get its balls cut off. That was pretty horrific.
Happens. No, but it was
horrific how they
lassoed the front leg and get its balls cut off. That was pretty horrific. Happens. No, but it was horrific how they like... Happens.
They lassoed the front leg and then lassoed the other leg
and then lassoed the back leg and kind of pulled all its legs together
kind of like a cartoon and then the horse fell over
and then they cut the balls off.
And then because the legs are squeezed together,
the balls pop out the back.
The balls are so big.
Yeah.
Such big balls.
A farm kid's story on on this it was like my
like sixth birthday or something so we had all these kids from um school come over like you know
first birthday at the new school got to impress everyone um and our neighbor had just slaughtered
all of his uh lambs for the year and had hung all the the blood stained sheep skins on our boundary
fence so everyone and we didn't know this because we're like frantically like you know getting the all the blood-stained sheepskins on our boundary fence.
So everyone, and we didn't know this because we were frantically getting the cake out and everything.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Meanwhile, Wolf Creek's going on over the fence.
Every kid, we've got a really long driveway,
every kid that had to go down the drive, it was just all these dead...
I'm having vegetable tagine for dinner.
Everyone arrives at the party
crying. Yeah, pretty much.
Yeah, right. And they would have thought it was a party favour
that you guys had done. You know how some people hang a balloon
on the letterbox? At Anastasia Lippin's
party you get to take a sheepskin home.
I know that I'm from a country family
because when we had birthday parties
we'd play a game where
they'd move all the furniture in the
living room and then you put one sock on one kid, so whatever foot you want,
and then the other kid has the other sock on their foot
and then you have to wrestle until one of you pulls the sock off fully
from one person's foot.
Like a slippery pig.
Yeah.
And it would get real rough.
Oh, dear.
And all I remember is my dad being like, three, two, one, wrestle.
And they sit back with a beer and watch.
Yes.
It was like UFC for them.
God, we are so bogan.
Yeah.
But it was fun.
I bet you would have been good at that game too.
You'd be feisty.
Oh, mate.
I dominated the kids.
I used to get real nervous going to birthday parties because I was worried about,
I was so competitive that I was worried about losing the party games.
Me too. I'd get this like sickness
that I wasn't going to win all the prizes. The chocolate
game? The amount of times I made myself
sick. You only learned about the chocolate
game as an adult. Are you
joking? My wife explained it to me
last year. I'll bring the stuff.
You missed out. Yeah, we should play. Have you never
played? No, I've never played. Oh, we should
play then. It's pretty fun.
There will be people listening to this who don't know the chocolate game as well.
Yeah, so the chocolate game, real simple.
Usually you put an outfit on first and then you start cutting up chocolate. You have to cut it into all single pieces.
And while you're doing that, everyone's rolling dice.
And if you get a six, that means you get to go in the middle.
Right.
Is this something about putting more pieces of clothing on and stuff?
Yeah.
So say everyone's rolling the dice and then say Clint gets a six.
That means the person who's eating the chocolate and cutting the chocolate up.
So can you eat every bit that you cut off the chocolate?
Yeah.
No, you can only eat what you can get into your mouth.
So say you've cut up.
So say you decide to cut up. And you're not allowed to bite the block. Yeah. No, you can only eat what you can get into your mouth. So say you've cut up. So say you decide to cut up.
And you're not allowed to bite the block.
No.
No.
Right.
So you have to cut and put them in your mouth as you're cutting.
The hard part is the costume because you're wearing gloves and you're wearing like.
So then say you get a six, the person in the middle has to get all the stuff off and you
have to dress.
And then by the time you get dressed, someone might have already got all the six.
And that's where the tears start.
What a great game. Great game. Because I was worried about, someone might have already rolled the set. And that's where the tears start. What a great game.
Great game.
Because I was worried about kids
cutting through their hand with the knife.
Oh, it's a butter knife.
It's a butter knife.
And you're wearing oven mitts.
And you're wearing gloves.
Yeah, you're wearing oven mitts.
I was keen for this.
Such a good game.
A lot of fun.
I saw it on TikTok the other day for some reason.
Did you?
People, this is where I think TikTok is quite cynical.
They just get stuff from your past and put it on TikTok
and they're like, remember when we did this?
And it's like, yeah, but you're making it less special
by getting, because you're just doing it for TikTok.
Yeah, stop ruining it.
Stop ruining our childhood with your TikTok.
What did I see the other day?
And I was like, oh my God, that is a throwback.
Can't remember what it was, but you know how like
a lot of the throwbacks aren't throwbacks anymore because they've already been thrown back. No, like a double throwback. Can't remember what it was, but you know how a lot of the throwbacks aren't throwbacks anymore because they've already been thrown back?
Yeah.
They're like a double throwback.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Or we're too old and they're like, remember 2018?
And we're like, that was like yesterday, kid.
Like, shut up, stupid loser.
Oh, man.
All right, let's GTFO.
Am I right?
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's awkward again.
Let's get the frick out of here.
No, I'm dolphin now.
No, yeah, you know.
The podcast injury can't finish without your awkward ending.
And you know when it's time.
He literally is talking like a normal person.
And then all of a sudden he's like, okay, everybody.
See you later bye
nah, I'm going to be cool this time
see ya

Hello everybody, welcome to the show.
G'day everyone.
We've had a rough start to the afternoon, okay?
We got asked to go out to the boardroom and give a speech to all the CEOs of the company.
And Clint made some highly offensive jokes to people.
I didn't mean to, I just think I offended somebody. Who were in the company. And Clint made some highly offensive jokes to people. I didn't mean to.
I just think I offended somebody.
Who were in the room.
And I don't think you even knew that they were in the room
and Clint made the joke.
No, okay.
And then you saw them and I could tell in your voice
that you'd seen them.
All the big bosses are here.
And I may have made a comment about how...
No, don't say it again.
That's the worst thing you can do.
True.
True.
Damn, why won't I learn?
That is the worst thing.
Bree gets up and does this real average joke.
She goes, someone's left their lights on outside.
No, I said, does anyone own a blue Corolla?
I think that's good gear.
And I was like, oh, man, I'll bring this back on track with some comedy fire.
And then I was the one who had to keep the ship afloat.
Anyway, we're here, and the only way is up.
So on the show today, lots of fun things.
We're Googling down.
I hear Google's going to go down today, so we're going to play Google down.
Did you hear that Facebook went down last week?
Did it?

Okay, here we go.
Did any of you go into your Facebook app on your phone at some point
and have to re-log back in?
Yeah, yesterday.
That's because Facebook was down.
It logged every single person in the world out of the Facebook app.
And did you see Google's going to leave Australia?
I saw that.
Australia's going to be a nation of bingers.
Yeah, bing.
You're going to have to use bing. You're going to have to use bing.

Bree and Clint.
The first dogs have moved into the White House. Joe and Jill Bidens, German Shepherds Champ and Major,
moved into their brand new home at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.
First ever rescue dogs to live in the White House.
Yeah, I think only one of them's a rescue dog.
Okay, one of them. Well, he's the first one then.
Champ, they got Champ in 2008 when Joe became Obama's vice president.
Right.
That was when Obama was first elected.
So he's old now, that dog.
Yeah.
He's like 12 years old.
Yeah, that's fairly old for a German Shepherd.
And Major came from a shelter in 2018.
And now they live in the White House.
Imagine that.
That's a rags to riches dog story, isn't it?
Yeah.
You go from the SPCA to the White House. Pretty good deal. Doesn't get much better than that. That's a rags to riches dog story, isn't it? You go from the SPCA to the White House.
Pretty good deal.
Doesn't get much better than that.
Apparently Champ is enjoying his new dog bed by the fireplace
and Major loves running around on the south lawn.
So that's sweet.
They're good to go.
They'd have so much room to run around and poo.
Yeah, poo wherever they want.
Do you reckon they poo inside and wee inside?
Imagine if they did.
Imagine if they pooed in the Oval Office.
I hope they don't poo in the Oval Office.
But you raise a very good point
because that building that they're in,
there's a lot of expensive stuff in there.
Oh, yeah, a lot of artefacts.
A lot of artefacts.
I don't know specifically what's in there,
but I imagine Abraham Lincoln's hat is in there.
George Washington's retain is in there. George Washington's
retainer.
Hat.
Wig.
Maybe some of Trump's
undies.
They use them as the flag.
There is important stuff in there.
Those aren't stars.
You've got to be careful Especially with German Shepherds
They're big boisterous dogs
I'm sure they're well trained
And they would have like a 24-7 babysitter
Just get one of the secret service
To just watch them the whole time
Oh my god I'd love that job
It'd be awesome
We want to know this afternoon though
What happened when you moved into a new house
What did your dog wreck?
Like maybe it was your brand new place Your dream home Or maybe you snuck a moved into a new house what did your dog wreck like maybe it was your
brand new place your dream home or maybe you snuck a dog into a place that you were renting
and basically as soon as you got there the dog chewed a hole through the wall or the dog pulled
the fiber cable out of the floor or something like that my um my partner was at the family batch last weekend and took our six-month-old terrier, Whitney Houston, there.
And apparently Whitney Houston went down to the beach,
loving it, around, swimming in the waves,
and then went into the batch where there was a brand-new cream couch.
What, threw up on it?
All over it.
Yeah, right.
That's why you never buy a cream couch. Yeah. They look
great. Who thinks? But one
spag bol and it's all over. Who thinks that
it's a good idea? Kim and Kanye,
that's who. Oh, $800
and we want to hear from you. What did your dog reckon
the new house? Hasn't happened to Jill
and Joe Biden yet. Could, don't think it will,
but it could. You can text
us as well on 9696.
And who paid the bill? Yeah.
And did the dog survive?
Did the dog have to get a job?
Did the dog get farmed out to
mum and dad's place?
Two big burly
German shepherds have just moved into the White House.
Which I think is actually fine It's only Trump who didn't have a dog
All the other presidents had dogs
It's just like part of what it is
Because it's meant to be like a home
Barack got a dog when he was already living there
Which is worse because it's a puppy
To keep the girls happy
Because a puppy is much more work than an already trained dog. Yeah, but do you
think Barack had to hand rear the puppy himself?
I believe Barack probably did all
the training. He had heaps of time.
I actually listened
to a podcast with Michelle Obama and
she said they actually did as much as they could
to try and make it normal for the kids
because they were so young and impressionable.
Be hard. So there's staff
everywhere for everything and they make your beds and things like that and they had to say to theable. Yeah, be hard. So there's staff everywhere for everything
and they make your beds and things like that
and they had to say to the staff,
no, don't make their beds, they'll make their own beds.
Yeah, totally.
Which I think paid dividend in the end.
But in terms of my bed, you can make my bed.
Yes, and she said that too.
We got them to make our bed.
Yeah, I'd love that.
So the dogs are moving in.
We wanted to know this afternoon,
what did your dog wreck as soon as you moved it into your new house?
Alistair's here.
Hey, Alistair.
Hi, Alistair.
Hey, guys.
What happened?
Well, as you do, you get a new puppy, a German Shepherd in my case,
and decided to, after a while, take it to see your mother.
And my mother doesn't have dogs.
She has a cat.
And after an initial introduction, we put the dog outside,
but he decided he wanted to come in.
So he stuck his head through the cat flap and one paw,
got caught, and proceeded to pull the whole glass pane
and cat flap out, and he had it around his neck.
Oh, no.
Good.
Yeah, good move.
I feel his pain.
I feel like I've had a similar thing happen to me on a drunken night out.
It's good indoor-outdoor flow for the cat, though.
No, I can make it in there.
I can fit.
I can get in.
I can fit in there.
Just push me a bit harder.
Caitlin's here.
Hey, Caitlin.
Hi, Caitlin.
Hiya.
How's it going?
Good.
What happened?
What did the dog ruin?
So my Siberian Husky at the time, we'd just moved into a new house.
My dad brought a new boat and my dog decided it'd be a good idea to rewire the boat and
to the boat trailer connections to the car about three times.
Whoa.
What?
Wait.
He chewed it three times as in you got it fixed, he chewed it, he got it fixed, he chewed
it like that?
Yeah.
So he obviously shocked himself a few times, chewed it through once.
We tried to wrap all the cables up so he couldn't get to them.
Found a way to get to them, chewed them twice, got another zip.
Were they bacon flavoured?
Yeah, I was going to say, there must be really savoury cables for him to keep going in.
They must have for him to keep going.
Has he banned from the boat?
Has your dog banned from the boat?
Dad ended up actually selling it because he got so sick of the dog chewing it.
He sold the boat?
Yeah.
Oh, I thought you were going to say, and you were like, no, he sold the dog.
Oh, cute.
That's a good result.
I like that.
That's nice from your dad.
There's one text I need to read out.
Someone's texted through on this.
What did the dog ruin at the new place?
They said,
when we got the keys to our new house, we went inside and popped a bottle of champagne
to celebrate purchasing our first home. The champagne cork hit the ceiling and rebounded
into the dog. She got such a fright, she dropped a massive deuce on the middle of the lounge.
Oh, that's good. I like that.
Brian Clint from iHeartRadio.
This is the latest
live from LA with Dean McCarthy.
Big rumours out today that
there is a Harry Potter TV series
on the way.
That's not the Harry Potter sound effect.
What is going on today?
To tell us more, the man
in Hollywood, Dean McCarthy. To tell us more, the man in Hollywood,
Dean McCarthy.
Good afternoon.
Hi, Dean.
Hi, guys.
You've won the sound effects award
of the year.
This is the best start
to any story ever.
Here's the deal, right?
This is very exciting.
HBO Max are looking to produce
a TV series
of the Harry Potter series.
Now, here's the backstory on this.
That'll air on Binge
and Foxtel in New Zealand.
But they still haven't confirmed any talent.
So it's still in its early stages.
But that is what's being talked about
between J.K. Rowling and Warner.
They own the rights to this.
But it will be on HBO Max.
So who will they bring back?
The original cast?
I don't know.
I don't think anyone could afford them.
The original cast are worth like $50 million each.
So I don't expect to see any of the originals in any type of way,
shape or form, but it's going to be happening.
A TV series.
And I think it's got good longevity as well.
Dean, correct me if I'm wrong.
I've heard rumours that the TV series is going to follow them
after they've obviously been to Hogwarts
and they're all living in like run-down apartments
and they have no money and have lost their way.
Harry Potter and the Diet of Two Minute Noodles.
Yeah, Harry Potter's on meth.
What?
Yeah.
Like it's going to be real.
Why did he get into myth?
Why couldn't he just go to uni and do Harry Potter does a phone party at O-Week?
Well, apparently him and Dumbledore had a fight
and then he just went down the wrong path in life.
Have you seen How Harry Potter Ends? No. Does Dumbledore had a fight and then he just went down the wrong path. Have you seen How Harry Potter Ends?
No.
Does Dumbledore die?
That's the latest.
Live out of Los Angeles.
Oh, well, if you haven't seen it already.
With our Hollywood correspondent, Dean McCarthy,
with the Harry Potter news you need to know,
thanks to Shadow in the Cloud.
It's in cinemas on the 4th of February.
Would it have been better
if Ron was on meth?
No, no one's on meth.
Okay, well I'm just guessing.
This is the brooms of meth.
No one's on meth, alright?
Except maybe Draco.
I think he may have...
He's definitely on.
He may have got in
with a bad crowd, I think, yeah.
Brie and Clint.
Quick family meeting time.
Just gather around whanau.
We need to have a quick chat.
You and I have got a plan to take the show on the road next week.
And just a quick roadie.
Yeah, road trip.
Just a quick trip down to Invercargill.
Our show is probably, you know, we are road trips now.
Yeah, we're road focused.
We're road focused.
We just like to get out, meet the people.
We did it in the Venute.
We did it in the Juicy Campers. We did it in the Juicy Campers.
We did it in the Juicy Campers.
And we're going to do it again.
Well, we want to do it again.
And we want to take the DeLorean, our DeLorean that we own,
that we bought off Trade Me for $3,000.
And what year model is it?
It's actually a 1997 Mitsubishi Diamante.
Dressed up to look like a DeLorean time machine. Our plan was
hitch a spa, pull to the back of it,
bada bing, bada boom, the world's first
real hot tub time
machine. And then we just drive down the South
Island and broadcast the whole time.
If there was
a road trip
that reflected what
2020 was like,
this is it.
Yeah, we're bringing 2020's problem into 2021.
The car's been in for a warren of fitness today.
Producer Ben is in charge of that.
Ben, how did the DeLorean go with its warren of fitness?
Did we pass?
No.
No, not at all. There is a lot wrong.
What's wrong with it?
Tell me. Do you want me to run through the list? I'll do a few of them. Give us the highlights all. There is a lot wrong. What's wrong with it? Tell me.
Do you want me to run through the list?
I'll do a few of them.
Give us the highlights.
How many is there?
There's a few.
There's definitely more than 10.
More than 10 things wrong with it?
That would need to go right for it to pass.
They're so picky.
Yeah, supposedly the steering wheel isn't working as well as it should be.
One of the exhausts are leaking.
The suspension control arm should be fixed ASAP
because it's quote-unquote weak.
And other things, I don't actually know what they mean.
It also just says it's dangerous with all the Back to the Future stuff
inside the car.
All the buttons.
Party pooper.
Party pooper.
That one's a party pooper.
Oh, fun police.
Fun police. Oh, VTNZ, what a fun spongeoper. That one's a party pooper. Fun police. Fun police.
Oh, VTNZ, what a fun sponge.
The steering one's not a fun police.
That one's quite important.
The steering.
No, we're going straight from Christchurch to Invercargill.
And to be honest, it's a time machine.
If something happens, we'll go back in time.
Just go back in time.
It's true.
You want a big deal?
So this is where we're at.
This is why we've called the family meeting.
So how much is that going to cost to fix?
I don't know.
So wait, how did we pay $3,000 for this?
Yeah, you need to get on the phone to the guy who sold us this thing.
Yeah.
Because he is laughing all the way to the bank at this situation.
Did he say that it was good to go?
Yeah, it's been so long.
It's been in storage for a long time.
It has been in storage for a long time.
We bought this car pre-COVID.
We haven't drove it though.
Here's the decision we need to make
and we need to make the decision today.
Yeah.
Do we cancel the DeLorean trip?
Should we cancel it?
Should we say it's too much?
Should we let the DeLorean defeat us?
Yeah.
I don't think so.
I think we can do it.
No, I'm joking.
Well, the alternative is,
the alternative is Yeah The alternative is
And it's not as sexy
But it would still work
We put it on a trailer
We put the DeLorean on a trailer
And we tow it
From Christchurch
To Invercargill
Next week
Yeah
Still get the hot tub
We'll tow the hot tub as well
Still get the
Anastasia's laughing
Her ass off at the moment
So we don't even
We still do it
We still do it
So we don't even get to drive
The DeLorean You can drive it on and off the trailer You can drive it on and off the trailer It will drive in a straight line Yeah ass off at the moment. So we don't even... We still do it. We still do it. So we don't even get to drive the door.
You can drive it on and off the trailer.
You can drive it on and off the trailer.
It will drive in a straight line.
Yeah.
How do we get it up to 88 miles per hour?
We've been offered a really big opportunity for the show this afternoon.
Big interview opportunity, actually.
Yeah, huge.
Huge.
It's to...
Well, how do we want to put this?
We've been offered an interview opportunity with some very high profile stars.
Unfortunately, that interview is, it's during our show, so we can't go and we can't do the
interview.
We can't be here, unfortunately.
So someone needs to go from the show.
It can't be you and me.
So producer Ben, I mean, he's, you know.
We need him. he's doing the
podcast and some other stuff so the only person uh that can go is producer anastasia producer
anastasia oh hi you're here how are you going do you have a busy afternoon planned yeah you do
huge stuff on a lot of stuff on because we need someone to do an interview for us
who knows about it's not just any interview, it's an interview to do with fashion.
You are the most fashionable person on this show.
You're very fashionable.
I wear the same thing every day.
At 4.45 this afternoon, Richie Mwanga, Patrick Toipulatu
and Geordie Barrett are available for an interview.
And they will all be in their underwear at the jockey shoot.
You know that jockey shoot they do each year?
I don't know anything about clothing or jockeys or anything.
We would really love if you could get down there
and get the interview for us.
We think it would be great for the show
to have some high-profile rugby stars.
And like we said, we can't go because we've got to do the radio show.
You're asking the person who knows so much about rugby.
Well, we've actually done some research for you and we've written all the questions that
you have to ask.
So you don't have to do anything.
You don't have to do anything.
You just have to read the page.
So if you would just maybe have a quick scan through these on the air now and the questions
are already written for you.
No, I can't read those.
They're so embarrassing.
Just give us
one. Just practice to see how it feels.
Show us your delivery. Yeah, see how it feels coming off the tongue.
I'm not asking these.
Was your father a jeweler because you've got
diamonds in your eyes?
That's a good question.
That's a really... For an all black standing there
in his undies, that's a really good question.
They're all taken men.
You can't ask...
Try a different question then.
Try a different question.
Was your father a thief
because he stole the stars from the sky
and put them in your eyes?
Well, don't say thief,
but if you could say thief...
We're meant to be building a rock.
Oh, yeah, no, it's good.
It's good.
It's good.
It's good.
I'm not going to this.
We've already booked the spot.
There's an Uber waiting.
There's a car waiting.
And a camera crew.
You're on your way.
It's all ready to go.
Maybe just try, if you don't like those,
maybe just try one more question.
Are your legs tired because you've been running through my mind all day?
That's good.
I feel like they would appreciate that because they're like,
you know, their legs would be tired because they play rugby and stuff.
Actually, you need to go because your ride is here.
Your ride is here.
And you need to take the microphone, the interview microphone with you.
And it's all ready to go.
No, we're not joking.
And thank you, by the way.
I don't actually have to ask these, though.
Those are the questions that we...
Can I ask something about rugby?
Like, I don't know anything about rugby.
If you can find a rugby
and undies based question
to ask, then yes.
Absolutely go for it. We'd love you to get
that for us as well. Maybe you could ask, has a pair
of your underwear ever been ripped off
in a game of rugby? There you go.
Rugby and underwear.
The Brian Clint fashion reporter, Anastasia.
She's off now.

Bree and Clint.
A Kiwi success story today.
Jo Brooks, 27.
She's from Dunedin and she is New Zealand's first ever female Navy helicopter pilot.
So she's the first one ever female Navy helicopter pilot.
So she's the first one ever.
First one ever.
We've had a Navy for a while.
And now...
I mean, about time.
We have a female pilot.
About time.
About time.
I'm super excited for her and that's awesome news.
But about time.
But about time.
Yeah.
She joined the Navy when she was 20.
And she worked on ships for a while and then she
decided she wanted to change roles so she
did the helicopter course.
You can tell you know heaps about
helicopters. I do, yeah. She read the helicopter
road code. I wonder how long it takes
to learn how to fly a helicopter.
Yeah. Fair while I'd imagine.
And get your hours up. And Richie McCall figured it out. Yeah. Fair while, I'd imagine. Fair while, I think, and get your hours up.
And Richie McCall figured it out.
Yeah, that's insane.
Some people had just built for her and Joers as well.
And, yeah, now she's New Zealand's first ever female Navy helicopter pilot.
So that means she'd be the only one.
The only female helicopter pilot in the Navy.
She's the only one.
She said that her graduation, she hopes her graduation will encourage other women to give it a go. She said the Navy could do with a few more female
pilots. Yeah, because there's one. I would certainly like a few more to keep me company,
she said. Yeah, that'd be nice. Totally. It will. And you know what? That's awesome because it will
encourage other women because she's now paved the way showing that,
hey, we can do this as well.
It's like the Kamala Harris effect, right?
Once you see that it can be done, you go, oh, wait.
It's breaking down that initial barrier and being like,
oh, wait a minute.
If she can do it, I can do it.
And as unfortunate as it is, it's probably showing people with that old school mindset
who go, girls can't do this.
And then they see them doing it and they go,
oh, that's right,
I'm stuck in the past.
Yeah, and I think those people still think,
I bet she won't be good at it though.
I hope they've taken out insurance on that helicopter.
I bet they're bad drivers, those women.
We wanted to open the phone line this afternoon to women
who work with all boys.
Yeah.
Are you like this?
Super male-dominated industry.
Yeah.
Are you the only girl in a job full of boys?
Lots of trades would be like this.
Yes.
What else?
Where else would it be quite male-dominated?
Sports medicine.
Oh, sports medicine is still dominant.
I don't know.
See, we don't know.
CEOs.
CEO. Heads of companies. Yep, that's definitely one. Sports medicine Oh sports medicine Is still dominant I don't know See we don't know CEOs CEO
Heads of companies
Yep
That's definitely one
We don't know
But are you in one
Yeah
Are you in one of the industries
You will know if you're in one
Yeah totally
Because it'll be pretty noticeable
If you want somewhere
Nice and quiet to talk
Maybe you could go
To the girls bathrooms
Yes
No one in there
No one in there
You're the only one
Are you the only girl
Working with all the boys
Give us a call.
0800 1000 M.
Bree and Clint.
Bree and Clint.
New Zealand is about to get its first ever female Navy helicopter pilot.
About bloody time.
Decided.
Yeah, all right.
You can have a go.
Jo Brock is 27.
She's from Dunedin, and she's going to be the first ever lady behind the controls of a Navy helicopter
Just so cool
You go, Jo
Yeah
Breaking on through
So we wanted to hear from girls, ladies who work in male-dominated industries this afternoon
Yeah, and what industries are they?
What's it like?
Yeah, what's it like?
That's what I want to know.
How do you cope?
Lauren's called up.
Hi, Lauren.
Hello, Loz.
Hi, how's it going?
Good, thank you.
First of all, what do you do for a job?
When I left school, I was a mechanic for 10 years.
Whoa, that's cool.
Interesting.
Yeah.
So I did my automotive apprenticeship.
And how many girls were in your class?
I bet there was zero.
So you're not a mechanic anymore, Lauren?
Oh, yeah.
I bet.
How was it being the only female mechanic for 10 years?
It was really good.
It was very interesting.
We used to work on cars and trucks and forklifts and everything.
We used to get a little bit of flack from the older generation,
but my boss was fantastic.
He would just tell them to take their car somewhere else if they didn't want me to fix it. from the older generation, but my boss was fantastic.
He would just tell them to take their car somewhere else if they didn't want me to fix it.
Oh, that's good if you had someone who had your back.
Is it the sort of job you would recommend young girls
listening to ZM to pursue if they're into cars?
A hundred percent.
Yeah, cool.
A hundred percent.
Yeah, nice.
It was well worth it, and I've been in the automotive industry
my whole working career, like six, seven years.
Lauren, you're obviously into cars and stuff.
What do you drive?
Well, I actually only have a work car.
Oh, no.
My partner's got like six cars, all different kinds of cars.
Is that why he got together with a mechanic,
so he could get free services done on his cars?
Thanks, Lauren.
That's cool.
Let's talk to Jo.
Hi, Jo.
G'day, Jo.
Hello.
How are you doing?
Jo, this isn't the Jo that's the first Navy helicopter pilot,
is it?
This isn't Jo Brook.
I wish.
That sounds so cool.
She's badass, eh?
Very cool.
Jo, what do you do for a job,
and are you the only female in your field?
Yes, I was in IT.
I'm a project manager.
And, I mean, luckily I'm at a company now where there's a few girls,
which is good.
But my background was software development,
and one of the companies I worked at, literally 200 men,
I was the only girl.
Whoa.
I had to draft a maternity leave policy because I'd been the only one.
Oh my God, Jo.
You had to write the policy
so that you could go on maternity leave.
The good thing about that is
they wouldn't know what it entails.
So you go, yep, we get 18 months of paid leave.
Do you know, I wish I could have done that.
I really do.
Because they were, yeah,
they were actually,
they were probably the worst company to work for
because they ended up quitting because it was just,
when I get pregnant, I get really,
I get something called hyperemesis,
which means I get really sick.
Yeah.
And they were just, they were so unsupportive
that I just, my husband just said to me,
he's like, just quit.
It's not worth it.
Just get out of there.
Yeah, well, you couldn't really get sympathy
from anyone there, could you?
Because none of them even know what it's like.
They couldn't relate.
That's interesting.
So 200 men and you were the only female. That would be
very overwhelming. Finally.
That's a lot of testosterone floating around.
Yeah. I wonder if they even had a
female bathroom. Can you imagine? I'd hope
at like the Christmas party there's like you know
best female employee
and she's like well
that's me. And Kerry finally
what was the male dominated industry that you
work in?
Oh, good afternoon to you.
I studied in building construction and architectural design,
and I was the only female to ever do the course.
Wow.
So when was that, Kerry?
That was 38 years ago. So you'd hope, do you think, Kerry, things have changed
and there would be at least a couple of women?
I would like to hope so.
It was quite a hard yakka because the boys would refuse to work with you.
Really?
Oh, yeah.
Really, Kerry?
You had to prove yourself a lot, but it was good.
Yeah, wow.
And I bet you bloody did, Kerry.
That's fascinating.
How good is that?
I'm still designing houses and schools
and that kind of thing now. Doesn't surprise
me. You would have worked your butt off.
Not many.
I haven't actually worked with any other
females in the industry yet. You still
haven't? You've been doing it for 38 years and you still haven't
worked with another female? No.
That's insane. That's mental.
My brother, who's an engineer, said
to me once, said oh you know
How's things at work
And are you dating anyone
I was like you could meet someone at work
He goes not one female
Have I ever seen at our office
Yeah
He's like I think I did the wrong profession
He doesn't even know how to talk to them
Yeah he's like got into the wrong job
Bree and Clint
Google's down Google are you down down down down down Wrong job. Bree and Clint.
Google's down.
Google, are you down, down, down, down, down, down, down?
What the hell?
I think Google's actually... Right, Google down.
Back for 2021.
For how long, we don't know.
But while we're here, we're going to play.
And Gemma, you will be taking on the boys this afternoon.
Hi, Gemma.
Hi.
What are we Googling on, a phone or a laptop?
A phone.
A phone, okay.
Perfect, Gemma, we'll keep the boys on us.
Producer Ben and Clint will both be Googling on phones.
I will be giving the questions.
I'm looking for the most common answer, the first one that comes up on Google.
When you know it, yell it out
and if you're correct, you will get a point.
First to three points will take
the game. Okay, Gemma?
Yeah. We're playing for a $50
Subway card. Here comes question number one.
What was the name
of Sam Smith's
debut studio album?
In the Lonely Hour.
That's correct.
Yes, I didn't even need to Google that one.
That was a good guess.
One to Clint.
Question number two.
What?
Everyone ready?
Yeah.
All right, here we go.
Question number two.
How many tigers still live on planet Earth?
40,000.
Clint's out.
Come on, Gemma.
My phone's too slow.
You got it.
Mine's glitched on the internet.
Producer Ben's the worst at this game.
You're still in this.
I wish I hadn't guessed.
I could have just Googled it by now.
3,890.
That's right, Producer Ben.
Is that all?
Is that the total number of tigers?
Apparently so.
In the wild, yeah.
Wow, we've got to go get those Joe Exotic ones.
I know.
Question number three.
One to Clint, one to Producer Ben.
Come on, Gemma, you got this one.
What is David Hasselhoff's kids' names?
Yell it out when you know.
David, David and Dave.
Hayley and Taylor and David.
That's right, Gemma, you've nailed it.
David, David and Dave.
My Google's given me all the context for David in my address book.
Gemma, nice work.
You've pulled it back there.
It's one apiece.
Here we go.
Question number four.
How far away is planet Earth from the sun?
Start Googling.
147.31 million kilometres.
10 kilometres.
I'm going to say that was a tie.
No.
Ben was just not as loud as you.
Fine.
So you're both on two points.
Yeah.
Gemma's on one point.
Question number five.
What is the most popular colour?
Oh, what?
You can have a guess if you want.
Blue.
Blue.
Producer Ben's taken out the game this afternoon.
Well done, Ben.
Nice work, Producer Ben.
And nice work, Gemma.
You were in it.
You were right there.
Gemma, can we ask what sort of phone you were using this afternoon?
It sounds like you need a bit of an upgrade.
Well, funny story.
I actually smashed my phone last week, so I'm on a spare phone.
So it's not the greatest.
Yeah, right.
It wasn't your week. Yeah, it wasn't your week, so I'm on a spear phone, so it's not the greatest. Yeah, right. It wasn't your week.
Yeah, it wasn't your week, Gemma.
I love that you were like, smash my phone.
Time to play Google, yeah.
Call to play Google, dear.
Have you head up to them online?
There's a Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra up for grabs at the moment.
Maybe you should go and try and win that.
Then you'd definitely win Google down.
That would go well for you.
Yeah, go into it, Gem.
Thanks for playing.
All right, thank you.
Bree and Clint.
The big news at the moment, Clint,
is that Super Bowl 55 is on track
to be the most expensive Super Bowl ever to attend.
Why is it so expensive this time?
So essentially the stadium seats about 65,000, 66,000 people,
but because of COVID,
they're only allowing about 22,000 in the stadium.
Right.
So they're selling the tickets for more money
and people are paying more money.
That sucks.
It's not your fault as someone who wants to go to the Super Bowl
that there's a pandemic.
I know.
So it turns out an average price of a Super Bowl ticket at the moment
is around $17,000 New Zealand. Hey, $17,000 a ticket. That's the average price of a Super Bowl ticket at the moment is around $17,000 New Zealand.
Eh?
Yeah.
$17,000 a ticket?
That's the average price?
It's not even that good a sport.
Crazy, eh?
Wow.
I had an idea this afternoon because obviously
we don't have the Super Bowl here in New Zealand.
But someone who I know who does spend a lot of money
on sporting events is my mum.
Oh, right.
She loves the state of origin, can't get enough,
and I know for a fact she's spent quite a bit on tickets before.
And those tickets aren't cheap.
No, you're right.
Exactly.
Someone who doesn't know how much she spends on tickets
is my dad, Big Steve, who joins us right now.
Hello, Big Steve.
G'day, Brianna.
G'day, Clint.
How are you?
Good.
How much do you think your wife spends on the average State of Origin game?
I'm not sure, but I think she spends a lot of money hiding it from me.
Exactly right, Dad.
So what we're going to do this afternoon is we're going to call her up right now, Dad.
She's not going to know that you're on the other line, okay?
So you need to stay real quiet.
And then when she reveals how much she spends, you go apeshit.
Okay, that'll be easy.
Hello?
G'day, Mum.
How you going, Rana?
Good, I got my mate Clint here.
Hi, Mum and Di.
Hi, Clint, I'm so excited for you.
For the baby.
Mum, we've already went over this.
You've already congratulated him.
Yeah, yeah, no, we're excited too. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Mum, we've already went over this. You've already congratulated him. Yeah, yeah, no, we're excited too.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Mum, we've got a really quick question for you
because there's news out today.
The Super Bowl over in America is set to be one of the most expensive ones
to attend yet because of COVID.
There's not as many tickets.
People are saying the average price of a ticket is going
to be about $17,000, right?
Oh, my God, yeah.
I said that in our family, you're super keen on going
to these big sporting events and you've spent a bit of money
in the past and we wanted to know how much have you spent
on a State of Origin set of tickets?
How much have you spent on State of Origin?
Well, there's flights and accommodation going.
Yeah, we'll put it all in.
Yeah, yeah.
How much was the trip?
How much was the trip all up?
Okay, so the whole family went to Melbourne for the State of Oregon,
probably looking at $15,000.
Holy crap.
Are you serious?
We could be in an army for a week on that.
That's madness.
You can't even do that in here.
Oh, Dad, I didn't realise you were on the other line, Dad.
Yeah, I'm sorry.
You forgot.
That was a family holiday incorporated in that, don't forget.
Oh, Jesus.
I don't care.
That's crazy.
Well, did you enjoy it?
Well, I don't now.
It's been tainted.
I can't have much of course. I don't now. It's been tainted. I can't remember how much it cost.
I don't enjoy it.
$15,000.
No.
Granddad, your blood, sweat and tears on the apple orchard.
$15,000.
Do you even remember if the Maroons won that game?
No, we lost.
I watched it on TV because I couldn't see it that well either.
That's the worst part.
No, the worst part, Clint.
I couldn't tell who was what. All right, thanks, Mum. The worst part was. Thanks, either. I couldn't tell who was what.
All right, thanks, Mum.
Thanks, Dad.
We'll leave you guys to figure it out.
We'll argue this one out.
See you, guys.
All right, love you guys.
Talk to you later.
See you later.
Brianna.
Bye.
Stay on tour.
Stay on tour.
Bye, Mum.
Love you.
Love you, Mum.
Right, Christmas might be at your place this year.
That was more awkward than I thought it would be.
Listen up, anyone who's ever had a breakup from a long-term relationship.
This is any relationship where you guys have lived together, okay?
Got stuff together.
Yeah, you've got joint things.
You've bought the white goods together.
The whiteware.
The whiteware. Yeah, yeah. You know? The fridge've bought the white goods together. The whiteware. The whiteware.
Yeah, yeah.
The fridge.
And the white goods.
The white goods.
Like the parsnips and the...
Adele has just finalised her divorce from her husband of three years.
I read that it took two years.
Two years, yeah.
And there was no prenup.
Wasn't there? no prenup. Wasn't there?
No prenup.
So her and Simon, they've been together since 2011.
Right.
They got married in 2016 and then they decided to separate in 2019.
And only now have they managed to get to the point where they've decided how things are going to get split up.
So the divorce is finally being finalised.
Yeah.
As we speak, actually in california who gets
what of the pie the adele pie yeah it doesn't say exactly who gets what but it says they've
used mediation to reach a settlement on things like assets properties and cash and they've
decided to go 50 50 in the kid well that's fair enough angelo is eight cute and they both want shared custody so that's good that's nice there's nothing to suggest Angelo is eight. Cute. And they both want shared custody, so that's good.
That's nice.
There's nothing to suggest that this is one of those angry breakups
where he's like, I'm going to take you to the cleaners.
And she's like, well, I'm going to write like nine albums about you
and make like another $500 million.
Does it say why that they decided to separate?
No, and that's a great question.
No, I think it's one of those things where they just maybe grew apart.
It doesn't say exactly how the money's going to be split
but what's fascinating to me is how much money
there actually is to split.
So Adele
was the richest celebrity
under 30
for a time. My God. She lost
her spot to Ed Sheeran who
at the
time where he earned as much money as her,
she also was over 30, so
she dropped off the list. Right, gotcha.
But she hasn't been touring since
2017 and hasn't put out new music since
2015, so he has
gone past her in earnings now.
That's not to say Adele's not very
rich. She's very rich. They have
a load of properties. They have that mansion
in the UK that looks like something off
Bridgerton. Have you ever seen that mansion?
Yeah, it's crazy. And they own
a bunch of properties in California.
As of 2020, which
is the last time the
figures were released, Adele,
her estate
is worth $190
million.
And apparently, because there's no prenuptial agreement
and they're getting divorced in California,
there is a chance that Simon could get half
because that's the way it works over there.
If there's not a prenup and you guys were legally married,
when you break up, it just goes 50-50 down the middle.
That's rough, isn't it?
It's tough.
I feel like it should be from the time that she met him till now.
What she earned in that time?
From the time that she met him until, yeah, they decided to separate.
He gets half of that.
Sure.
That's an interesting way of looking at it.
Yeah.
Yeah, you could go, that's the money that you helped me earn.
Yeah, because you were a part of my life and, you know.
He had to look after Angelo while she was on tour.
Exactly.
That's worth 20 mil.
I wonder how much that would be.
What?
Because I wonder how much she's earned like since 2011 to 2019.
Yeah.
A lot.
A lot.
A lot.
I think that's two albums and two world tours.
It was Skyfall.
Yeah.
Yes.
Yeah, that's in there.
That massive arena tour. Yes, her biggest tour ever. Her was Skyfall. Yeah, that's in there. That massive arena tour. Yes, her
biggest tour ever. Her last tour
ever. That's the one she said where she's not
touring anymore as well. So that's
going to be interesting to watch and see who
moves into a nice big new house
and who... Well, I think, look,
at the end of the day,
as much as it'll be horrible,
I think they could both survive on half
of $190 million.
I think everyone will be all right.
Yeah, yeah.
I think, no, don't feel sorry for them.
No, it's hard not to feel sorry for them,
but I think they'll be okay.
We want to know this afternoon,
what did you get in the separation?
This doesn't have to be a divorce.
This can just be-
It doesn't have to be a marriage.
But maybe it is.
It could be a marriage, though.
It could be a marriage.
It could just be a long-term relationship.
You guys could have just been de facto.
You lived together for two years and so in the eyes of the law.
Is that the rule?
Yeah.
Yeah.
If you live with your partner that you're not married to for two years,
what are they entitled to?
Half.
They're entitled to half.
Yeah.
But then what if they have nothing?
Well, they get half by breaking up with you.
What a load of BS.
That's why people have prenuptial agreements.
What do you mean, though?
If you're not married, how are you meant to have one of them?
I think the de facto thing was put in place to protect people who couldn't get married.
And so I was like, okay, you guys need some legal protection in this situation too.
Who does it protect?
Well, you know, if you couldn't have a legal marriage contract.
Yeah, I get it.
We want to know this afternoon, what did you get in the separation?
Oh, $800 at him.
Or you can text us to us on 9696.
I'm so interested in this.
Maybe you went to court to fight for it.
Or maybe you said, you know what, just give me the BMW
and I'll walk away happy.
And that's it.
How did your breakup go?
We can make a deal.
Who got the assets?
Yes.
Give us a call.
Adele's lawyers are currently in the process of carving up $190 million in her divorce case.
How would you figure that out?
You'd be like, who gets the house in Tuscany?
And they'd be like, you get the house in Tuscany, but I get the house in the Mediterranean.
You'd do a wish list,
wouldn't you?
Like a best case scenario
and hope for the best.
Anyway,
we wanted to know,
not on that scale,
but what did you get
in the breakup?
When you guys had to divvy up
all the assets,
what did you want?
What did you get?
Could have been a separation,
could have been a divorce,
could have just been
like simple old breakup.
Let's get Sandra on.
Hi, Sandra.
Hi.
Hello.
What did you get in the breakup?
I got over 200k. Whoa!
Sandra! How?
Look out!
Well, I came into the relationship
with nothing.
He had issues with
cheating. We always kind of worked it
out and counselling and all that stuff
and then bought a house.
He put my name on the house, but he had all the assets
and the down payment and everything
and then still couldn't keep it in his pants and, yeah.
So you took him to the cleaners.
Good work.
How long were you with this person for, Sandra?
We knew each other for 12 years, but we were together for five.
We had a daughter and, yeah, at some point,
we were actually trying for another baby.
So I was like, nah, come on.
Yeah, that sucks.
Well, to be honest then, like once you have kids with someone,
I feel like what's theirs is yours, what's yours is theirs.
I think you want the person to go away.
It is now.
Yeah.
It is now.
About time, Sandra.
You deserve it.
Good on you, Sandra.
Yeah, I just bought a house for me and my daughter.
Oh, lovely.
Yeah, beautiful.
Oh, good stuff.
That's awesome.
Good result in the end.
Let's get Mike on.
Hey, Mike.
G'day, Mike.
G'day, Gones.
How are you?
Good, thanks.
Mike, what did you get in the breakup, Mike?
Well, it isn't exactly what I got,
but my ex-wife left me for an extremely wealthy man,
and during the divorce proceedings,
she actually asked for the flybys points.
You're kidding me, Mike.
Not kidding, guys.
I kid you not.
She asked for flybys points and she left me for many, many, many millions of dollars.
Mike, just out of curiosity, how many points did you have?
I only had about 300 points.
So I know every year she gets the statement because her email address is still on it.
And out of spite, I have never bought anything
and just watched the points disappear.
Yeah, good.
So she didn't get the points?
Nice.
No, I never gave them the points.
They're actually my points, but she still thought they were hers.
Oh, there you go, Mike.
You know, there's a silver lining to all of this, Mike,
and sometimes people reveal their true colours, right?
Absolutely.
So you're better off in the long run.
Yeah, exactly.
But don't let all those
points go by.
Get out there
and get yourself
a blender or something.
Thanks, guys.
Might do.
See you, Mike.
Thanks for calling.
Appreciate the call.
The person who said
that they got herpes
in the breakup.
Oh, that's not cool.
Oh, whoa.
Someone else said
they got freedom
in the breakup. Some of these things are intangible. Some of these things you can't put a. Whoa. Someone else said they got freedom in the breakups.
Some of these things are intangible.
Some of these things you can't put a price on.
Someone else texted through and they said,
I signed a prenup, married a wealthy man.
He owns a lot of properties, had two children.
After 10 years, I got left with 45K
and just about homeless with two kids.
If someone tells me now to find myself a rich man,
I just laugh.
Yeah.
Oh, man, that sucks.
Our last caller wants to remain anonymous.
Hello, Anonymous.
Hi, how are you?
Good.
Thanks, Anonymous.
What happened in the breakup?
What did you get?
I got our very precious dog.
Oh, see, that's priceless.
Yeah, and it was a great trade too.
What was the trade?
She got a dog for the man.
Oh.
I got the dog for the man.
Gotcha, gotcha.
He didn't walk away.
Wait, did you get what you needed?
Like he didn't walk away with a Maserati and you got a dog lead, did you?
No, but the, no, no, no, it was fine.
We had only been together just over no, no, it was fine.
We had only been together just over two years, so it wasn't.
So how did you, did you guys get the dog together?
Yes, we did.
And he was actually really hard.
It was like having a child.
He would come and pick her up every day for work in the morning and then he'd drop her home after work and he'd stay and have a G&T.
Oh, and then it just dragged on.
Oh, no.
It went on and on.
But the real kicker was his mother sent a list of every gift
that she'd ever given me and asked for them back.
What?
Whoa.
Oh, you did the right thing, Anonymous.
Get out of there.
True story.
You should have got all the gifts, run them under a hose,
and then just thrown them onto her front lawn with a bag of dog poo or something.
What a nightmare.
Far out.
Hey, thank you for your call, Anonymous.
We appreciate it.
It's like in 2009, you.
You owe me two earrings.
Brie and Clint.
It's time for Birthday Banger.

Biana.
Biana, hi.

Which zoos?
Yeah, I think I should go and have a beer with Alicia.
I like that, Biana.
Let's do your birthday banger, mate.
What's your birthday?
31st of October, 1985.
You were 16 in 2001 on the 31st of October.
And in the early 2000s, this had a number one hit.
The Queen.
Jay Malaj.
Family Affair.
I like that one, Biana.
That goes well with the Corona too, Biana.
It does, it does.
And some Patron.
Okay, wait there.
One more for Melissa.
Hey, Melissa.
Hi, Melissa.
Hi, how's it going?
I heard a rumour, Melissa, that it's your birthday today.
It may well be.
Happy birthday.
Happy birthday.
Have you had a good day?
I've had a really fantastic day, yes, thank you.
Got any presents, Mel?
Just a few little lovely homemade presents from the kids.
So I'm hoping the husband's going to pull through for me.
He's probably made you a necklace out of spaghetti as well, Melissa.
It's the thought that counts, Melissa.
All right, well, let's do your birthday banger for your birthday.
What year?
Oh, my gosh.
Well, I'm going to beat everybody.
It's 79.
1979. Excellent. 1979, okay.
You were 16 in 1995 on the 27th of January.
So on this day in 95, this was number one.
I love this song.
This is OG TLC.
Second time TLC's come up this week as well.
Yeah.
What are your thoughts, Mel?
Awesome.
Love it.
Love it.
It's a good one, eh?
We've got three great songs for Birthday Bangers today.
My gut says that you shouldn't pick Sean Kingston over Mary J. Blige or TLC.
Well, I wouldn't.
No.
It's not worthy, right?
It's a great song. It's Mary J. Blige or TLC? Well, I wouldn't. No, it's not worthy, right? It's a great song.
It's Mary J. Blige or TLC.
What does my gut say?
I love that TLC song,
but I feel like the Mary J. Blige one
might be more of a vibe.
I think that's a vibe.
I think it's Mary J. Blige.
Yeah.
And our girl, Biana, she's a vibe.
Here you go, Biana.
Congratulations.
You've just won birthday banger.
Woo-hoo!

Zinnia Brinkley.
That's the winner of Birthday Banger from Mary J. Blige.
It's Family Affair.
For Biana.
For Biana.
And that means when you hear Mary J. Blige,
everyone gets a Corona.
That's the rule now.
Because you get a Corona popping sound.
Why do Coronas pop so good?
Why are they the best popping beer?
I think it's because they've got a long neck.
Is that what it is?
Is it?
I don't know.
How's the Corona company going in 2021? I think they've lost millions. Are they on the best popping beer? I think it's because they've got a long neck. Is that what it is? Is it? I don't know. How's the Corona company going in 2021?
I think they've lost millions.
Are they on the way back though?
Because it is a delicious beer.
I love that beer.
I'd hate to see it go away altogether.
Taking down Sean Kingston and TLC.
Creep.
Very close, this Creep song, to taking it out, I think.
Yeah, this was another great track.
We did promise an update because we talked about yesterday
a lovely woman named Susan who a couple of weekends ago
was at Danny Doolin's here in Auckland City.
And she met a guy named Steve and she just said he was really lovely,
really kind and then she was looking after her friend Deb
who'd had a few too many shardies.
Deb had had a breakup.
Yeah.
She was actually taking Deb out because Deb needed a night out.
Yeah, really nice of her.
And Deb took full advantage of her night out.
And then Steve left and she didn't, you know, she was like,
oh, he was really lovely.
And then so she's put up a sign, tried to find Steve.
They sound like fake names, by the way.
They're real names.
Yeah, they are.
And anyway, we put it out there to get your guys' help yesterday
to see if we could find Steve.
For Susan.
For Susan to see, you know, is he single?
Is he available?
All that kind of stuff.
For the record, Susan said to us as well,
there's every chance he could be married.
Yeah, she's like, we didn't talk about anything.
He's done nothing wrong.
He's just really nice.
I just got a really good vibe off him
and I wanted to talk to him some more.
So here's the update.
Are you ready?
This is crazy.
And this is how small sometimes New Zealand is.
But apparently a girl that works here.
At ZM.
At ZM.
So her parents are friends with Steve, right?
And apparently Steve heard about this.
So he's heard about Susan looking for him.
He remembers Susan.
And turns out Steve is in a relationship.
Yeah.
So he didn't want to come on the radio because he's like,
oh, guys, I'm in a relationship. But. So he didn't want to come on the radio because he's like, oh, guys, I'm in a relationship.
But guess what Steve did?
What?
Steve called Susan to just let her know that it was lovely to meet her
and that he is in a relationship, but it was lovely to meet her.
What a good bloke.
How nice is that?
And isn't that always the bloody case?
All the good ones are taken. What's
the point? What's the bloody point?
What's the bloody point?
But I mean, at least there's some resolution there. At least
Susan doesn't have to show up to Danny Dorland's
every, what was it, Thursday night,
Saturday night, for the next three years
hoping to run into him again. Apparently
when Steve told Susan that he
was taken, they just both laughed about it.
They thought it was funny.
That's good.
Yeah.
How's Deb?
Yeah, what's Deb up to?
One of the most exciting times in anyone's life is if you win the lotto.
I know you have been hanging out to win the lotto your whole life.
It's going to be up there with the birth of my first child and my wedding.
It would be, I'm not going to lie, pretty damn exciting.
It will definitely be.
Those three things will be in the top.
I can't lock in a number one.
You don't know where.
I can't lock in a number one until I've experienced them all.
I thought you were going to say, because I don't know how much money I'm going to win.
That too.
But best moment to the worst possible moment you could have would be losing
a lotto i've thought about this a lot yeah that is a winning ticket yeah because if you lose it
there's nothing you can do unless you buy online and that's why i'm not encouraging anybody to do
anything no but i do buy my tickets online for that very reason i am always terrified if you
do buy a ticket from the news agency.
I always think about these people.
But then I always think about the tickets from there being luckier.
And they can be, I think.
You can take it home.
You can get your wife to kiss it for good luck.
You can get your daughter to sleep with it under her pillow.
Man, I really sound like I've got a lot of problems.
Don't give it to your daughter.
She'll rip it up.
And then what if it wins?
See, this is what we're talking about. Well, it's happened to a very unlucky punter by the name of Leonardo
who got given a lotto ticket.
So apparently in his family it's like a New Year's tradition
that his mum gives all of her children lotto tickets for the New Year.
So she bought all of her kids lotto tickets for the new year so she bought all of her kids lotto
tickets and then what she did was she wrote all the numbers down from the lotto tickets where you
can check if they're a winning ticket yeah anyway so uh the numbers are drawn he like checks he's
like well i haven't won division one i haven't won division two and he checks all the way down
to like you know whatever division it was not all of them though yep and he goes i haven't won division two. And he checks all the way down to like, you know, whatever division it was.
Not all of them though.
Yep.
And he goes, I haven't won.
Anyway, he got blind drunk.
Yeah.
And went out with the boys.
Yeah.
And it wasn't till the next day when his mum called because she'd put the number of his ticket through the internet, didn't she?
Yeah. And turns out the ticket hadn't won, you know,
a first division prize or a second or a third,
so it hadn't won one of the big prizes.
It had, however, won over $40,000.
I mean.
$40,000.
Yeah, I know, I know.
Has he thrown the ticket out by this date?
So, get this, right?
So he panics.
He's like, oh, no.
He's checked all of his friends' cars
because he was in their cars that night getting lifts home and stuff.
No ticket.
He goes, the last time I had it was at the pub
and I was checking my numbers.
Yeah.
So he goes back to the pub.
Yeah. And he said, to the pub. Yeah.
And he said, you know, what happened to the ticket or whatever?
And one of the girls working there said, oh, yeah,
I put that in the bin the other night.
Dumpster diving.
I had to go dumpster diving.
Two days ago.
Yeah.
So he went, okay, where are the dumpsters?
Yeah.
I'm about to go dumpster diving.
I'm going in.
You first.
Absolutely.
40 grand.
I'm not too big for that.
They said, you wouldn't believe this,
but they've just picked it up to take it to the tip.
He just missed it.
Just missed it.
He might not have found it anyway.
He might not have found it.
No.
Yeah, cool.
I'm going to go and update my Lotto app
and just check that all my details are correct
and write that password down somewhere safe as well.
Oh, God.
Gutted.
Gutted.
Absolutely gutted.
