Had two coffees from a cafe and two scones and that's about the extent of it, to be honest. I'm trying to think of anything interesting I did. Oh, I made a lasagna from scratch. Oh, yeah, that's good. Yesterday. Took three hours. Did you roll the pasta sheets? I did. Did you? I did it all.

See, that's how far into lockdown we are. That's how bored I am. Did you create the pasta sauce yourself? I passed the sauce from scratch. Then I created my own bechamel sauce. And then I made my own pasta sheets. And then I churned my own mozzarella. Jesus.

Next, you'll be telling me you hit the kiln and made your own crockery dish to cook the lasagna. We are bored. We are so bored. The rest of the country, I hope you're enjoying yourselves. I hope your daylight savings have started well. Auckland is going crazy. You know what I'm currently obsessed with?

What? There's a tracker that says exactly how many New Zealanders are getting vaccinated every day. Oh yeah, I've been watching that. Yeah, I'm addicted to it. And obviously we're not getting out of this thing until we're all vaccinated. On Saturday, 50,000

New Zealanders got vaccinated. That's pretty good. They've just updated the stats for Sunday. 24,000. Well, you know, people are more up and at them on a Saturday. Yeah. And Sundays, people want to relax. Yeah, well, I'll tell you what's relaxing, getting vaccinated. Which you can do today. For your Monday. Yeah, well, I'll tell you what's relaxing, getting vaccinated. Which you can do today for your Monday.

Yeah, drive-through vaccinations, booking vaccinations. There are just, I mean, we're doing all right. 42.9% of New Zealanders have had two vaccinations and 34% have had one vaccination. You know what you don't want? You don't want the Aussies to come back and beat New Zealand because they're hot on the heels, I tell you.

That's how you do it. You don't want the Aussies to win. Yeah. You make it a rivalry thing. They've started to step up their game. You put the Bledisloe back up for grams. Whoever gets vaccinated first wins it back. I saw John Key over the weekend.

His idea was tell young people they can't go to R&V if they don't get vaccinated. Well, we talked about that a couple of weeks ago. We were like, how about you set up the stations at R&V? Jab them on the way in. Yep. You've got to be jabbed to get in.

Yeah. Go around and jab them in their tents. That's not a good idea. Even the ones that are passed out. If you're passed out, you get double jammed. No, no, no, no, no We can't ask him We don't know if he's been vaccinated

Just stick one in each bum cheek And let's get out of here That's not where they put the vaccine Who have you been going to? Where did I go? Yeah, where'd you go? I think that was for something else Today on the show

I want to talk about eating expired food for a second.

Yeah, I think it's fine. Yeah, don't. If you're listening to us, don't pretend you're too good for a bit of expired food. I'll risk it a lot of the time. There's a few foods I'll steer clear of. Yeah, don't. If you're listening to us, don't pretend you're too good for a bit of expired food. I'll risk it a lot of the time. There's a few foods I'll steer clear of. Yeah. But like yesterday, I put in you're going to probably say this is a no-go.

Yeah. I put in, I had some scrambled eggs. All I needed was a dash of cream. Yeah. So I used it was five days expired. Nah, 100% fine. And I smelt it. As long as you give it the sniff test and the chunky test, you're good to go on my box. It wasn't chunky.

It was smooth. It was creamy. A person has posted a picture of a box of spices that have been given by their mum. Nah, you're good to go. I reckon you're good to go. But, I mean, this is controversial. It's a box of Master Food spices.

Okay. You know the ones. The ones in the supermarket in the little glass jars. The ground cumin seeds expired in 1995. That's fine. Cumin. If I know cumin, it doesn't expire. And the chilli flakes expired in 1991.

Right. Okay, that's fine. They're dried. They're dried chilli flakes. The chilli's 30 years old and the cumin seeds are coming up 25. Corner of a century. Cumin's good until at least you're over 70 or something. It's like a fine wine, isn't it?

I get it. They're full and they're very old. I don't think a lot of Kiwi mums were adding much spice to their recipes back in the 90s. Yeah, they just had them like there and they were kind of like a foreign thing where you're like, I don't know what I'm doing with those. We're very meat and three veg in the 90s.

I thought we could go through a list of these foods and we can talk about how expired we would eat them. And then I've got the actual like Ministry of Health recommendations on how expired. Oh, yeah, this is good. So you said cream. Let's start with milk. How past the expiration date would you drink milk?

Without a sniff test? Without a sniff test. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Or how long would you feel safe? At least, well, probably two days. Two days? Yeah. Oh, I live a little.

I was going to say five days. Five days? Go and look at the label. Something that's within the week. Nah, it'd be chunky at five. It'd be smelly at five. If it passed the sniff test and it was five days, would you still put it in your cup of tea? But you said no sniff test.

Yeah, right. According to the Ministry of Health, unopened milk is good for five to seven days if it hasn't been opened. Oh, if it hasn't been opened. And only two to three days opened, so you were right. I was spot on. Okay, let's go for the jugular.

What about chicken? Oh, see, chicken is a no-go zone for me. This is uncooked fresh chicken. Okay? And there's a stamp on the packet that says best before. How long, if it's been in your fridge, not frozen, in your fridge, how long after the best before date? Day after.

That's it. That's all I'm doing. I don't even know if I'd risk it. And I'm risking it. It's either the day of that it goes off or best before or the day after. What if you put it in the freezer on the day of the best before? Then you're good to go. Then you freeze time, eh?

Yeah, you freeze. It freezes everything. Yeah, yeah. Okay. Chicken officially. One to two days after the date. I'm nailing this challenge so far. Yeah, which makes me wonder, right,

if you're good one to two days after the date, why don't they just make the date one to two days longer? I think they just give themselves that buffer, but the chicken's quite slimy. Yeah. You know, if you're eating it one or two days after. Starts to go grey. Do you wash your chicken?

No. People always get at me for washing my chicken. They're like, that creates more bacteria. And I'm like, do you eat the goopy stuff? I don't eat the goopy stuff either. What about how they've started putting that weird pad thing in the bottom of chicken now? One time I accidentally put that in

a soup. And then I realised halfway through and I was like, well, I can't eat this soup. Nothing makes your bin stink more than that chicken pad. You ate the soup, didn't you? I ate it anyway. I mean, how bad could it be? As long as it got hot.

A couple more things. Stick with the chicken. Go around to the butt. What about the eggs? The eggs, oh. How long past? There's a stamp on the carton of eggs. Hopefully you're not one of those fancy people

who decant their eggs into a nice basket beside the oven because then you don't know the date, right? And you don't know which are the fresh eggs and which are the old eggs. That's true. I put my eggs in the fridge, which I think gives them a little bit longer. Yeah, me too, yeah. A week.

Yeah. Eggs, it doesn't say after the date, like an expiry date, but eggs are good for three to five weeks past the date where they were gathered, cleaned, and put into storage. Oh, you're good to go then. A week's heaps of time. That's a long time for something that came out of a chicken's butt to last, eh? I feel like they definitely should be refrigerated, though.

I think so. But they're not at the supermarket. No, they're not. One more food. Sour cream. No one ever finishes a pottle of sour cream. Nah. Ever.

It's one meal. It's one meal, and then it goes back in the fridge. You're like, oh, I'll have that again. And then two weeks later, you find out it's got a skin on the top of it. It's got that oily then it goes back in the fridge and you're like, oh, I'll have that again. And then two weeks later you find out it's got a skin on the top of it. It's got that oily, yellowy skin on top. Or it's got like a carpet of mould on top of it. What are you doing for sour cream?

Sour cream. Sour cream and it starts to separate too. It gets that liquidy bit. Because I mean technically hasn't it already gone off? It's already sour. Yeah. It's already gone off? It's already sour. Yeah. It's already gone off. I would have sour cream. I'd say it's like similar to cream.

Yeah, I wouldn't go more than a week past the expiry on sour cream. Five or six. Yeah, four. Four days. Yeah. Sour cream, it says sour cream opened or unened, is good for up to three weeks after the sell-by date as long as it's been stored in the refrigerator. How good's that? That's amazing.

I've wasted a lot of sour cream in my life. Remember that time I feel like we should bring up my old flatmate, Iron Gut Annabelle. Oh yeah, with the chicken cabanara. Two and a half weeks. Cooked. Cooked. Not raw. She goes, is this all good to eat? And I said, yeah, with the chicken cabanara. Two and a half weeks. Cooked. Cooked. Not raw. She goes, this is all good, Dave.

And I said, yeah, go for it. She was fine. Again, like a fine wine. Iron Gut Annabelle. Like a fine bottle of old chicken wine. She loved it. Bree and Clint. Are you interested in celebrity items,

buying an item that a celebrity has owned? Like memorabilia? Yeah. Depends who's. Yeah, well, I mean, it's quite interesting when people spend a fortune on something that was owned by a celebrity. I'd kill for a Jonah Lomu All Blacks jersey. Yeah, that's a little bit different than what I'm talking about, I feel.

What have you got? Well, there's a story out today about Michael Jordan, greatest basketball player of all time, MJ, and some of his stuff went to auction recently. The thing I'm interested in is one particular item, which was a pair of Michael Jordan's boxes. Oh, okay. No, thank you.

So a pair of Michael Jordan's boxes were put up as a part of the Leland's late summer classic auction. And how much do you think they sold for? I don't know, because I've never mentally valued a pair of Michael Jordan's underpants. When I think Jordan,

I think a ball singlet, I think a pair of shoes. Let me give you the blurb that was written with the underpants and see if it changes your mind. Unusual item shows definite use as this pair of underwear slash compression shorts was worn by Michael Jordan with some loose threads evident at the seams. Originating from a family member of MJ's Last Dance security guard, John Michael Wozniak.

It even has a dry cleaning tag inside with the last name Wozniak as well as a tag that says Michael Jordan. Right. Two things. Yes. His security guard is stealing his undies. Which is weird. And he gets his undies dry cleaned.

How the other half learned. Must be nice. Right. Which is weird. And he gets his undies dry cleaned. How the other half lives. Must be nice. Right? Must be nice. Imagine you were going to dry clean us and then Michael Jordan's undies come in. Yeah, random. You'd be tempted to switch them out, eh?

Yeah. Wouldn't you? You would. Just depending on the price. I've got absolutely no idea. Did they sell? They did sell. Okay.

And they pulled in a total of $3,340. Jeez. For some dirty undies. Not bad for some dirty undies. Yeah. So what we've done is we've gone to Trade Me and we've asked your wife Lucy to give us a pair of your underwear. You have not.

You have not. And if you would like to bid on Clint's skitty undies, you can. Our link is on our Facebook page. If you'd like to dry clean them for me, I mean, I'm hoping to get another couple of months out of them. Bree and Clint from iHeartRadio.

This is the latest. Oh, there's some drama brewing and it surrounds Lana Del Rey and Lorde. The Sun newspaper is reporting that Lana Del Rey has accused Lorde of using the melody from her song Wild at Heart on her song Stoned at the Nail Salon. I read this and the story's been gaining momentum over the weekend and I've been thinking, God, I want to listen because, I mean,

there's a lot of these that come up and sometimes they do sound similar and other times you're like, I can't hear it. Sometimes it's faint and you're like, oh, okay, it could have been. Because also as an artist, you can't tell when you've been subconsciously inspired by something, right? You can't check it against every song that's ever been made. No. But then some of them you go, oh, yeah, that sounds a bit off.

Let's have a listen, shall we? Yeah, let's do it. This is Lana Del Rey's, you're listening for the melody, not the words, Lana Del Rey's Wild at Heart. My left calabasas escaped all the ashes, ran into the dark. And it made me wild, wild, wild at heart. And this is Lorde'soned at the nail salon. I mean, I mean, I mean, without knowing the ins and outs of it,

you can hear a similarity, right? A definite similarity. Like, if I'm being honest, they do sound quite similar. Yeah, they do. The Sun is reporting that Lana's team have agreed to thrashing out a deal. What was offered to Lana Del Rey? Apparently, Lorde's team came back and offered Lana a percentage of the publishing rights for Stoned at the Nail Salon. Lana Del Rey doesn't want loyalties.

She wants Lorde to do a public acknowledgement of where the song came from. So Lana Del Rey wants war. So she's not after money, though. No, she wants Lorde to go, I stole Lana's song. That's what Lana Del Rey wants. That's what she wants. I'm not saying Lorde did that. I'm saying that's. That's what Lana Del Rey wants. That's what she wants. I'm not saying Lorde did that. I'm saying that's what would satiate Lana Del Rey in this situation.

I mean, it's a real hard situation. Yeah. Like, what do you do? Because, like, maybe Lorde was inspired, you know. Subconsciously. Subconsciously and didn't do it. Or maybe she did hear it and goes, oh, I quite like that. I might do something similar. And then it turned out quite similar.

Yeah. Who knows? And Lord Delana Del Rey fan, so who knows where it came from. Yeah, I know. That is the latest. Bree and Clint. This story gave me a very big giggle and it's a story that went to air on the BBC.

Okay. And, like, if you haven't been watching the news, there's quite a big fuel crisis going on over there at the moment, over in the UK. Is there? Yeah, where people, the petrol stations are running out of fuel. Are they? People are going crazy and they're lining up around the block

trying to get all the petrol they can. God, I'm really not watching the news. I mean, it's bedlam at the moment. Anyway, there was a reporter who was down on the ground who was reporting outside a petrol station where there's these hour-long queues. And the internet has had a bit of a laugh about exactly which reporter they sent down there

to cover this petrol shortage story. Because the reporter's name, the journalist they sent down there, his name was Phil McCann. No. Phil McCann did a stellar job. No, you don't send Phil McCann to cover a fuel crisis. Phil McCann was down covering the petrol shortage story. Well, actually, now that I've said that, who else are you going to send? cover a fuel crisis. Phil McCann was down covering the petrol shortage story.

Well, actually, now that I've said that, who else are you going to send? If you have Phil McCann working for you. You send him down. You send him down. Which there was a few, because I looked into it, there was a few journalists who were quite disappointed to miss out on the story. One of the journalist's names was Petra, last name Roel. She was quite devastated.

That's not true. And another seasoned journalist, his name was Gus, last name Olean. No, that's... No, it was. It was. Yeah, right. All these guys are just working for the BBC, all these, yeah. In the same office.

Yeah, right. So they, I mean, they had options. Yeah, they've always got options. Phil McCann, no, I can't. I feel like we've all been in the position where you have a few lemonades and you're like, I might miss this person. I might need to send them a test. See what they're up to.

I'm going to say it forever. I know I'm drunk, I mean it. No, I love you. I mean it. No, I really love you. You need to know. No, I haven't been drinking. I know I'm drunk. I mean it. No, I love you. I mean it. No, I really love you. You need to know. No, I haven't been drinking. I haven't been drinking.

Well, I have, but this is honest. I only had three. Anyway, turns out it does happen to everyone, including global superstar Pink. Oh. Yes, the singer. I was going to say the actress, but I don't know if she's actress. Has she done any movies? I don't know. Anyway, the singer. I was going to say the actress, but I don't know if she's actually. Has she done any movies?

I don't know. Anyway, super famous. She's spoken out in the last couple of days about a time she drunkenly emailed fellow global superstar Eminem. Oh. Yeah. Right. Quite interesting story. So apparently her and Max Martin, who I think is one of her producers. Yes.

They were writing a track called Revenge. It's this song here. We could do revenge, revenge, revenge, revenge. Together, together, together. Yep, I know it. So they were writing that song and she actually wrote a rap verse for that song. Did she? And anyway, she said that they were drinking a ton of wine and she went home after this big writing session and she had some more wine. And then she goes, you know, it's

a good idea. I think it's a really good idea if I email Eminem. What, for some rap advice? No, I'm going to email him and ask him to be on the track. She said she reckons that's why they call it liquid courage because she started writing this email and she recalls it sounded something like this. You know I love you. I like that you work with a lot of the same people like Rihanna. She's hotter than me but I'm funnier. So I'm going for a rap Grammy and I'd like to take you along with me.

She said it was a long email and he wrote back right away one word. Yeah. He wrote back, okay. That's right. He is on the song. We can do revenge. He's on it. Wow. Job done

Apparently it took another email that was sober From Pink where she was like I'm serious Can you be on this track Well she probably forgot that she sent it That's the real issue Eminem shows up to the recording booth And she's like what are you doing here You asked me You told me to be here at 9am

What the hell Anyway he ended up doing a verse on the track. It was cool and it all started with her having a few too many wines. This is bad what you're doing here because what you're doing is you're saying that sending that drunk message is a

good idea. Creating something awesome. You're saying that the proof is in the pudding and next time you have a few, you should send that message. When all of your friends have been telling you have a few, you should send that message. When all of your friends have been telling you for months now, do not text that person drunk. Maybe it's the courage you needed. You're going, it's the best thing you can do. To start the next chapter of your life.

You never know. And I thought, you know, we could get some of those stories, and we'll take both. We'll take both sides, ones that turned out really well and ones that turned out horribly wrong yeah right um times that you messaged someone after you'd had a few lemonades and uh you know did it work out for the for good or did it work out really badly maybe the message because you'd had a few lemonades went to the wrong person like maybe it was for boyfriend but it went to boss.

Maybe you left a voicemail instead of a text message. You know what sucks about leaving a voicemail? Is they get it ages down the track? They get it the next day. You can't remember what you said. It's not like a text where you can read it over and over and over and go, it's okay.

It's fine. That's okay. They can interpret that. That's fine. That's fine. No one knows what they said on a voicemail. No one has any idea. I don't even know when I'm sober what I say on a voicemail. 0800 dials at any where you can text us on 9696. We want to know. Who did you drunkenly message? Did it turn out well

or did it turn out bad? Bree and Clint. Who did you message after a couple of lemonades and you got the courage to be like, you know, a couple of lemonades and you got the courage to be like, you know what, I'm going to send that personal message. You know this happened. I was just thinking about this.

I did this. On the weekend? No, not on the weekend. In lockdown. Fair few years ago, I'd had a really bad breakup when I'd first moved to New Zealand. And then probably like, I'm going to say four months later, I'd had a big night on the lemonades and I got out the old phone

and dialled the number. That's right. I think you told me about that. Yeah, and then we had a little thing again for a little while. Yeah, it was the worst thing you could do because it reopened the floodgates, you know. It was a bad decision. You had a clean break.

That person had left the country. And then the lemonades got into my mind and I thought, nah, I miss that person. Yeah. Dumb idea, brah. It was dumb. So we're asking you this afternoon on 0800DIALZM who did you send a message to after a few

lemonades and did it end well or did it end good? Shan's here. Kia ora Shan. Hi team, how's it going? Good thanks Shan. Who did you drunkenly message? Good well I met this lovely little lad when I was travelling South Africa about I don't know about 10 years ago when you know

what goes on tour stays on tour. Absolutely. But he was quite keen to take it further when we got back to London and didn't really get the hint. So I had a few bodies one night and messaged through, or emailed through to my best mate all of the reasons why I didn't want to continue from appearance that I didn't like,

habits that I didn't like, why he didn't tick the boxes as a potential liver for the future. So all the things that you would say to a best friend but you would never say to someone's face, obviously. Yeah, totally. So total keyboard warrior. And I emailed it to him instead. No, Shan!

You're back from him? What did he email back? He's like, well, at least I got the hint. You're like, no, you didn't got the hint. You're like, no, you didn't get the hint. That's why I had to write this email in the first place. Exactly. I felt so bad the moment I had that. Did you just want the ground to open up

and swallow you at that point? Like, did you want to just throw your computer against the wall? That's why why isn't there the option to take the email back? Gmail gives you about eight seconds. Does it? Yeah. Well, how is Shan, who's had probably like six Chardonnays, how is she? She's going to take you about eight minutes. That's a good question, Shan. Did you realise that you had sent it when you sent it or was it

not until he replied that you realised what you'd done? Within seconds and I was getting delayed. I was just thinking like, abort, abort, abort, and I tried to do everything. I don't think Gmail had that option to undo it before you actually think it. Do you remember back in the day you could pull the battery off your phone? I remember sending a text message a couple of times.

I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. So you rip the battery off the phone in the hopes that it won't go through. Phones these days don't have that option. You gotta smash them. You know what else, Shan? Let's discuss, let's all of us while we're here discuss how annoying it is on Facebook that when you want to delete a message,

it tells everyone that you've deleted a message in the group. So what's the point? Absolutely, absolutely. He's gone now and he leaves me alone after that. So do you know what? We won. Job done. Next time you need to give someone a hint,

just write out a pros and cons list and send it on through. Send it directly to them. Yeah, sounds good. Or maybe just don't put his name in the address box first. Might be a good idea. Maybe, maybe, maybe, yeah. Oh, shit. Bree and Clint.

Big news for single people. There is an ad that's gone up today for a brand new TVNZ dating show being filmed this summer. It says they're looking for sexy singles aged between 18 and 30 to appear on a mysterious new dating show. It's got to be Love Island. It has to be Love Island, right? Surely.

It says they promise a shot at real romantic connections and of course there is a pile of cash up for grabs for the winner. Which in Love Island. That's a Love Island model, right? That's exactly what it is, yeah. The story went live at 8am at 8.02 where he received a message from producer Anastasia saying, hey guys, looking to either resign or take a decent amount of leave this summer

and then there was the link to the show. And we're not here to make fun of you. I think you should go for it, Anastasia. I think this is the show for you. I think it's your time. Yeah. I was kidding. I've never even watched it.

Yeah, I know. Well, even better. Oh, you lie. No, actually, I watched one episode with Brett. It was good, yeah. You don't want to go on this show. They'll fly you to a tropical island. You'll get to just be in a villa.

Yeah, but I don't want to be in my bikini on TV. Well, you don't. You could set a trend. You could be the rash vest girl. That would turn me off too, Anastasia. I'm not going to lie. Me in a rash vest? No, as soon as I see all the women and how tiny their bikinis are

and how amazing they look, I'm like, I would never go on this show. I'd always be worried about my butt being on, you know, hanging out. What if you get a wet check? Yeah, exactly. What if they show a scene where someone uses the toilet after you and they're like, who's been in this toilet? I mean, I'd keep it real. At least people would be like, oh, yeah.

Anastasia, can we just, the application form is actually live now. You can find it on the TVNZ website. I've just downloaded it. Cool. Can we hypothetically fill it out for you? Yeah. Obviously, you'll submit it. Bree and I won't submit it on your behalf.

Hey, Bree, we won't. Well, we're not meant to submit it. You guys didn't actually submit it. Nah, nah, nah, nah. Nah, just hypothetically. Hypothetically. We'll just go through. Let's just say we've got your information.

Okay, thank you. So one of the questions is what are your drinks no sorry what are your hobbies and interests and what do you do for fun

this one was easy yeah what did you put down I said green smoothies running horses designer clothes saying words like sheesh

really I just put drinking seltzers and not wearing sunscreen yeah I mean add those into mine I think we're spot on. Somewhere in between those two?

That's all accurate. Yeah, okay. Except for smoothies. These are the questions they ask you if you want to go on this show. What might people be surprised to learn about you, a.k.a. special talents, surprising life experiences? Do you speak any other languages? I wrote down that you like to chew up crackers and

then regurgitate them back onto other crackers like a homemade pate and then eat that cracker. When I was like nine I said I mean I might have told a few fibs in this but it's alright I definitely didn't submit this application

anyway. Definitely didn't do that. I said I speak six and a half languages. Growing up Dutch, I know my way around an oven. It's good. Shows your culture. You like to cook. You like to cook. Yeah.

You're a pan. These are more questions you need to answer to go on this dating show. What are you looking for in a relationship at this stage of your life? I just put an all black or at least a Ford Ranger. Yeah, Ford Ranger's pretty accurate. Yeah, that'd be right. I wrote a six pack of pals. Also very accurate.

Don't they only come in a 10? Oh, look, details, eh? They can figure that out. Take what you can get. How long have you been single for and why do you think you're single? I didn't have an answer for this. I've got a good one. Yeah, do you know?

Anastasia and I have spoke a lot about this. I wrote The Truth, which is, it all starts back when I was 20 and I watched this incredible movie with Julia Roberts called Eat, Pray, Love, an indie film, and it changed my whole perspective on dating. Why date someone else when I can date myself? Oh, that's deep.

24 years going strong, people. Yeah. Eat, pray, love, yo. When it comes to dating, what are your deal breakers? I just put down they have to be able to do five days in a tent at R&V. That's good. That's basically all you're looking for, right? Yeah, yeah.

Bit of, yeah. If they can't do the cheap campsite, then that's a deal breaker? Nah, nah. Rent a house. Oh, you've upgraded. Yeah, I'm then that's a deal breaker. Nah, nah, rent a house. Oh, you've upgraded. Yeah, I'm older now. She's 24. She's out of that camping stuff.

Sophisticated. She's RMV senior. Yeah, right, okay. What's your celebrity crush? I put Mark Richardson. Nah, I think I nailed it. Yeah? I said Logan and Jake Paul.

No! Yeah, that's good too. You like both of them. Yeah. No, you can't pick between the two. No, none of them. And this is the last question. I mean, these are good for you guys if you're thinking about entering this new TVNZ dating show,

which may or may not be Love Island. How would you describe yourself and how would others describe you? I just put awkwardly single. Yep, that's pretty accurate. I wrote a real nice one for this because I felt bad. Yeah, what did you write? I said, happy-go-lucky, genuinely beautiful, inside-and-out human, always up for a laugh or an adventure.

Jeez, way to make my awkwardly single one look bad. But I can add that onto the back and then cover everything. Remember us when you get famous, Anastasia. Bree and Clint. Look, I mean, a lot of people are getting stuff sent. You know, they're buying stuff online and they're getting stuff sent to their house, especially in Auckland because that's the only way you can get anything. It's the only way you can feel alive is to have nine packages coming from online shopping.

I mean, look, I'm not going to lie. It helps me. I love getting some stuff. And last week, I think I talked about it on our podcast intro, had a package come to our door. I've looked at it. I'm being like, that's not anyone that lives in our flat. And it was the same number, very similar street. And then it took me a while and I realised it was actually a different street in a different suburb. And we had to track down the girl on Facebook and then we

ended up getting it back to her. She came and picked it up from the mailbox. What a punish. I would have just gone free package. Yeah. But you know, it felt really nice to be honest because I feel like you can, you know, either go two or three ways, you know, but it's really good to get stuff back to people because sometimes people don't.

Yeah. Sometimes people will take it. Yeah. And there's a story that's going viral at the moment and it's about a woman who lives in Brooklyn, New York, and they had a camera at the front of their door capture some footage of a guy who kept stealing their Amazon packages. Okay.

So here's the daughter of the woman who is getting her packages stolen uh telling you what happened recently we've been having like all of our amazon packages stolen from the front of our house and we've caught it all on our ring camera so this is the first time we catch him he tells us with his own bag later that day my mom is out and she's like shopping and she like shouts that day my mom is out and she's like shopping and she like shouts out to him in the street and she's like amazon package thief so he pulls up to her house again and this time he has a message for our ring cameras this man walks up to our house again and he's like you see that you see that like literally mocking my mother so this is my mom's response back uh she

took a in an amazon box and then she re-taped the box to make it look like a regular amazon box and yeah stay tuned let's uh i can't wait to see what happens next well mom mom really took it up mom went from zero to a hundred real. Things escalated quite quickly. And I was like, I need to know what happens with this story. Because I saw this in an article. So I found this TikTok account and I went on there. Turns out the guy did come back. He stole the package again.

And so they were like, perfect. We got him. We've nailed him. And then they've looked at the footage again and turns out it was a different guy that came and stole the package this time. So the mum said, oh, now I've got to do this whole process again and wait for the other guy. Can you imagine the visual of mum in the bathroom squatting over an Amazon box? I'm just cooking up another one in here. Give me 24 hours.

I'll get them again. So what is the lesson here? Don't steal other people's packages. It's all we have. Don't mess with mums. Yeah, don't mess with mums. They don't take no shit. Literally.

They give it. Bree and Clint. From their head to their toes. Too high or too low, they're short and they're stout, they're up and they're down. It's the fight of the heights. I mean, what would you call it if there was two people and someone goes, Cameron Diaz, she's like 5'6", and the other person goes,

nah, she's more like at least 5'8". And the other person goes, nah, I reckon she's 5'6". You call that game fight of the heights. And we have. That's exactly what we've done. Also, Cameron Deer is definitely a 6'0". No, she's 5'9", 5'8". Really? 5'8".

She's 5'8". I just checked it up. Is she? I crushed that. Wow. I thought she was supermodel height. Okay. She was 6'4".

Yeah. Interesting. That may be an indicator of how today's game's going to go. We're playing for you guys. Whoever's team wins, that person gets 50 bucks KFC chicken dollars. Bridget's here first. Hi, Bridget. G'day, Bridget. Hi. You're on my team, so I'll play it for you.

Awesome. Good luck, Clint. Thank you. Justine, I've got you, girl. See ya. Alright, let's do the thing. Whoever wins takes home the 50 KFC chicken dollars. This week's theme is male singers slash musicians. Da boys. Da boys.

Yes, we did females last week. So let's start off with celebrity number one, Kanye West. He's obviously just released his new album, Donda. And he's, we tip, he's known for being shorter than you'd think. Oh, but I've already written it down. It's all right. Kim's quite short, eh? And they never looked much different on the red carpet at the Met Gala.

Very, very good point. Brie's put down 5'7", 5'7". Clint's put down 5'8", which is correct, 5'8". Oh, there we go. Awesome. Celebrity number two, Elton John. Like Kanye. Also releasing new music, but no surprises about his height.

I reckon he's shorter than Kanye. Brie's put down 5'6". Clint's put down 5'7". He's a 5'6". He's 5'6". It's a point to Brie. I'm on the board. One point each.

I feel like I got none last week. That is true. You did get none last week. Moving on to... Well, you didn't have to confirm it, Anastasia. Let's just check that out. Yep, none last week. Way to keep me bloody honest.

Clint had three points last week. Let's go to celebrity number three. We get it. I had none. He got them all. We can do the math. Brie, you can win it back today with celebrity number three, Justin Timberlake. He's currently filming a new film called Reptile.

Not a bad actor, I don't reckon. Brie's put down 5'11". Clint has put down 5'8". You reckon he's that tall? Oh, someone's confident given he's 6'1". Yeah! That's a point to Bree. Justin Timberlake is 6'1".

I knew he wasn't that short. Guys, this game is all about trying to throw you off. Yeah, wow. You thought he was 5'8"? Yeah, I thought he was just like a little boy band guy. You know, they're always like, bah, bah, bah, and bouncing around. I never expect those guys to be very big. You know, even though they're in a boy band, they actually still grow up.

Fully grown men. Yeah, they grow into fully grown men. I was doing him when he was on the Mickey Mouse Club. Is that not the height we're going for? Unfortunately, I'm going for current day, but I do appreciate you trying to get there. Okay, all right. Let's go to celebrity number four, which is Bruno Mars. Oh, he's a little shorty.

Yeah, yeah. That's hard. I've met him, but... Name drop. Yeah. That hasn't always helped you, though. No, it hasn't at all. Clint's put down five, six.

Oh, one of you's going to have to change. I'll go. Five fives. Brie, you've come back. He's five five. That's three one to Brie. Congratulations, Justine. You got some free KFC.

Got you back, Justine. It was all over, you know. I love it. I love it. I'm guessing how tall Bruno Mars was. How short he was, really. I mean, yeah. Five five. Quite short, isn't he?

I saw this post this morning, which I think is fairly relatable for a lot of people, especially those who have been in long-term relationships and then all of a sudden find themselves single again. It's titled, How is a late 20s adult supposed to find love or romance in today's scene? It's weird, eh? Because in your late 20s, you're not over the hill.

But if you've been out of the game for a while, like this person who's been out of the game for seven years, dating would have changed a hell of a lot. Yeah, I feel like, you know, we live in a time where there's more options and opportunity available now more than ever. Yeah. But is it like going to a restaurant with a menu that's too big? You're crippled by the amount of options you've got. Yeah, I think for some people that might be true. But like dating apps are a great way to meet people.

I know there's stigma attached to like meeting people that way. Is there still? But I feel like it's moving away from that because literally more people meet on dating apps rather than other different ways. Yeah, now it's weird to say you met in a bar, you know? Yeah. But more, I don't know, I'm going to read you this person's post and we'll see if there's any ideas for them.

They wrote, I've just come out of a seven-year long-term relationship that started back when we were at university together, but now I have absolutely no clue what to do. seven-year long-term relationship that started back when we were at university together. But now I have absolutely no clue what to do. I've tried to find some people through online dating, Tinder, Hinge and Bumble, but I get pretty much zero matches or bots messaging me. My friend recommended Meetup. Do you know what Meetup is?

I think it's another app. But I found people don't really stick around for long on Meetup. I don't even know as a late 20s adult how to meet people and become friends, let alone date. Because that's the other thing too. If you've come out of that relationship, if all of your friends were shared friends, then you might find yourself needing to find

a whole new social circle, not just someone to date. It is a really weird thing. In my lifetime, I've moved my entire life oh like three or four times for my career yeah and i've found myself as an adult living in a completely new town or city where i don't know anyone other than my boss who i work for yeah yeah because i've moved my entire life there and i literally i remember sitting in my room one time being like, how do I make friends?

I'm like 27. Where do you start? How do I go up to someone and be like, hey, do you want to hang out on Saturday? Let's go to brunch. Because you're right. Because when you're younger, you just make friends with whoever's in your class.

Or if you're at uni, you make friends with whoever's in your halls of residence. But as an adult, what do you do? The way I found, and it took me a while to figure it out, and I don't, I mean, it's pretty simple. Join a social sporting club. Play social sport. It means people have to talk to you and get to know you

because it's normal in that setting because you're all doing something together. You know what I mean? Maybe about a mixed indoor netball. Yeah, absolutely. Just play something social and you can meet people through that. That's a great idea. The message ends with, any serious advice out there? I'm really confused and the pandemic is not making my loneliness any easier.

So can we come up with some good ideas for this person? And for anybody who's found themselves single all of a sudden how do you meet people i'd also say i feel like you know it's so easy to say when you're not yourself but i mean if you've been in a relationship for seven years maybe you shouldn't be getting back into a relationship yeah yeah i mean yep that's like you know what i mean it seems like this person's like i just need someone else straight away. Maybe they want to rebound. And I mean, hard to do that when you're in lockdown. Extremely hard to do that. You know?

Yeah. But I feel like maybe you should watch the movie Eat, Pray, Love. And find yourself. And find yourself first. It's very hard to eat, pray, love in lockdown as well. But I mean, you can do all those things in lockdown. You can't travel and find yourself, can you? No, but you can eat, you can pray, and you can do all those things in lockdown. You can't travel and find yourself, can you? No, but you can eat, you can pray and you can love.

Oh, $800 at M or you can text to 9696. Anything but the apps. What's your advice for someone to meet someone in 2021? Bree and Clint. We're trying to figure out how do you meet people as a single adult? And it's not just for dating. This particular one was for dating, but then they've also said they,

now that they're newly single, coming out of a seven-year-long relationship, they don't know how to make new friends now either. Yeah. It is quite a daunting place to be. And I think I really like the text that someone's written in where they said, it's so important to keep your own separate group of friends.

So many people stop seeing their friends when they get into relationships. Yeah. And then they end up in a place like, and I'm not saying everyone does that, but, you know, you do get caught up in the relationship vibe and then you don't see your friends as much or all your friends turn out, like, mesh into the same people. Then three years later your relationship breaks up and you have to go crawling back to your friends

and they're like, oh, oh, look who came crawling back all of a sudden. Or all your friends are the same and then they have to pick a side. Yeah, that's awkward too. Which is horrible. So how do you meet people? Someone's texted and said, you guys might be a bit boomer for this, but Twitch and video games is a really great way to meet people. I resent that. And I've written back to them because I play Fortnite and I sometimes and I was on Twitch on the weekend. Not my own Twitch but someone else's that I know.

You saw someone doing a Twitch. I was on their Twitch. We were doing a group Twitch. So I do know what Twitch is. She's cool. I've seen him on Ellen. Let's get some advice from people. Elizabeth is here. Hi, Elizabeth.

G'day, Elizabeth. G'day. Good afternoon. Hello. What's your advice? How do you meet people? Well, you know, I moved here to New Zealand from the US in my late 20s, and I knew no one.

One of the things you do is get really lonely, but also just what would you like to do with your life? You've been in a relationship for the last seven years. You've been probably watching Netflix. What hobbies would you like to have? Write down a list. What would you like to go out and do? Who do you want to be?

Go out and do that, and you'll meet some people. Oh, my God, you're like a motivational speaker. Could be, could be. Maybe in my next life. What do you like to do, Elizabeth? What did you write down? Well, so I ended up rock climbing. I wanted to learn how to do rock climbing.

Wanted to run a half marathon, so signed up for a lot of local running groups. We wouldn't be friends, Elizabeth. Well, so, you know, the added benefit for the activity stuff is you meet a lot of, you know, pretty nicely fit people. Do you like to eat cheese? You know, some, you know, paint and sip clubs, you know. I have a friend who got divorced recently and she's back in the dating game. She likes to play a Star Wars online game. She now does this awesome meetup with, you know, LARPing lightsabers in the park.

There you go. People, wait, that's a thing? They're like actually going out there and... I love, have you ever watched a game of Quidditch? So good. No. Loved it. Like a real life game of Quidditch.

Yeah, our uni used to put it on and there'd be like a tournament and stuff. It was very cool. Bryce is here. Hi, Bryce. G'day, Bryce. Yeah, g uni used to put it on and there'd be like a tournament and stuff it was very cool. Bryce is here, hi Bryce G'day Bryce. G'day, how you going? Good thanks, how do you meet people Bryce? Well, my 8 year old son was listening to this and he says you should do what you do Dad, is have letterbox beers

What's a letterbox beer? I love a letterbox beer Well you invite your neighbours around and you all stand around your letterbox and drink beers and you'll be surprised how many people will want to join in. And it's close to home. So you meet new people. Like King of the Hill. Yeah, why not?

Right. That's a good time, Bryce. And do you think it just attracts people when they see other people drinking out on the driveway? Absolutely. Yeah, we actually have a group of about six people now and it's slowly growing. I actually love that. And going, hey, can we join

your group? So also you can do this in lockdown because you can socially distance. You can all stand two metres apart. You can stand across the road at your own letterbox. Absolutely. Letterbox beers. Genius. Okay, thanks Bryce. Thanks Bryce. Thanks, Bryce. I just thought of a really good one that's made me meet a lot of new people in the last

year. Get a dog. Yes. You meet so many people when you have a dog and it makes for easy conversation at the dog park. You go, oh, what's your dog's name? And then you, we've met so many new, amazing people. They're a natural icebreaker, right?

Yeah. We met some neighbours that live on our street and our dogs play sometimes. It's great. Get a dog. You'll meet new, amazing people. They're a natural icebreaker, right? Yeah. We met some neighbours that live on our street and our dogs play sometimes. It's great. Get a dog. You'll meet heaps of people. Great advice. Finally, Catherine, how do you meet people?

Hi. So I met my ex-husband when I was like 23 and then we were together 12 years. So then in my mid-30s, I had to go through the whole dating thing again and it was really quite scary because everything changed. Yeah. So you had to kind of relearn the whole rules about dating.

So everything was online and everything was a lot more, I guess, cutthroat because people are so, you know, you match with people on dating apps and, you know, you know what you want or you don't want pretty instantly. Like a cutthroat buffet. Yeah, that's a very yes, no. Okay, so what worked for you in the end?

I did meet my current partner off the dating app, but I had to learn a lot of things about dating apps before I got to that point, like always meet in public, never give them your real information at first because there's some really strange people out there. Yeah, absolutely. And also Grindr's probably not the app for you. And take your pictures from a high angle. Yeah.

There you go. Hopefully there's some helpful advice in there for people, right? I've just made a new Fortnite friend on the text machine. There you go. You guys are going to do some twitching. Absolutely. Bree and Clint. It's my birthday. It's my birthday. Bree and Clint's Birthday Banger. Right, we do this at the same time every day. It's called Birthday Banger. We'll take your

birthdays and we'll figure out what was the actual song top in the charts on your 16th and then we'll play our favourite one. First up, Brianna is here. Hi, Brianna. Hi, Brianna. Hi. I believe it was your birthday yesterday. It here. Hi, Brianna. Hi, Brianna. Hi. I believe it was your birthday yesterday. It was. Oh, happy birthday. How was it? Great, honestly.

I got like a whole weekend's worth of celebrations. Yeah, nice. I love that. Was it a lockdown birthday? Are you in Auckland? No, no, I'm in Tubnaki, so relatively free birthday for me. Yeah, good stuff. Bit of a birthday party fun in the Naki. Alright, let's figure out your birthday

banger and we'll drag out your birthday even longer. What year? 1993. Alright, you were 16 in 2009 and on the 26th of September in 2009 this had a number one hit. Bree and I were just digging in the Taio Cruz back headlog before the show today.

It's an absolute classic. You can't go past it. Brianna, you've got an absolute pearler. We were saying he was one of the best at the Friday Gems live concerts. He's so underrated. Yeah. He absolutely is. Yeah.

Solid. I like that. Well done, Brianna. Wait there. We'll go to Sandra. Welcome to the show, Yeah. He absolutely is. Yeah. Solid. I like that. Well done, Brianna. Wait there. We'll go to Sandra. Welcome to the show, Sandra. Hi, Sandra. Hi.

How are you? Good, thanks. How are you? Not too bad, thanks. Keen to do your birthday, banger. What's your birthday? 9-14-1996. All right, Sandra.

You were 16 in 1992. And on the 9th of September in 92, this was number one. Oh, good. We've played this before, eh? This is one. Rhythm is a dancer's snap. It's an absolute bop. Do you like it, Sandra?

Yeah, it's awesome. Yeah, what year, Bree? This was 1992. Do you like it, Sandra? Yeah, it's awesome. What year, Bree? This was 1992. There you go. I love that song. Let's do one more for Jacinda. Kia ora, Jacinda. Hi, Jacinda. Hi, how's it going? Good, thanks. How's things at the Beehive? Yeah, great, thanks.

That's me. When are we getting out of this lockdown? Please. Yeah, well, I wish I could say. You've got time to call us here at ZM, so we appreciate that. What's your birthday, Jacinda? The 21st of May, 84. Would that be close?

I reckon. That'd be pretty close to the real Jacinda's birthday. Are you sure it's not you? Pretty sure. What colour blazer are you wearing right now? I'm in my high viz at the moment. Oh, okay. Relatable. She would be out there at the construction sites.

Yeah, kicking around. Just before we do that, has the Prime Minister ruined your name for you, Jacinda? A wee bit. Yeah. I bet you really hate people that make jokes that you're the Prime Minister. Oh, you know.

This is awkward. You've heard it once, you've heard it twice. Could be worse. You could be a Judith. Yeah, well, okay. Sorry, all the Judith. Yeah, sorry. You could be a Karen.

That name's been ruined too. Yeah, that has been ruined as well. I feel so bad for Karens because that day, they didn't ask for that. Well, you know who they need to speak to if they've got an issue. Yeah, the manager. All right, Jacinda. You gave us your birthday, didn't you? You were 16 in the year 2000 and on the 21st of May, this was number one.

Say my name, say my name. Say my name is around you. Baby, I love you. This is his child. Say my name. Say My Name. Their first breakout hit. Feel like a bit of you, Jacinda? Yeah, I'm not sure if it is, but it's not a bad song.

Oh, okay. What would you pick, Jacinda, out of the three? Yeah, I'm not sure what I would pick, but probably the girl that was before me, the lady that was before me. I quite like her song. Sandra. She's a dancer. Yeah. Okay, wait, then we've was before me. I quite like her, though. Sandra. Rhythm is a dancer.

Yeah. Okay, wait, then we've got to decide. I'm voting Tayo Cruz. I like them all. I'm picking Rhythm is a Dancer. Really? I can't go past it. I don't know why.

I really love Tayo Cruz. You want to go all the way back to 92 for it? I just want to give it the option and put it out into the universe. Okay, pick your producer. Don't pick the one you think is going to make you win. Just pick one. Anastasia. Anastasia, what's the winner of Birthday Banger today?

Yeah, I'm team Bray. That's a banger. Start the Monday right. See what happens when you put something into the universe and you pick the right producer. Sandra, you won Birthday Banger. Congratulations. Yes, Sandra.

Thank you. There you go. Throwing it all the way back to 1992 this afternoon. Brianne Clint, Birthday Banger. Zit M. Brianne Clint. Look, I am a big movie buff and I watch a lot of films and I've always seen those things where people talk about how

shooting in movies is quite unrealistic and you know when people get shot they like fall backwards into the wall and all that kind of stuff yeah I always read that like the gangsters who hold the gun on the side like you can't shoot someone with a gun on the side not accurately

anyway it's not how to do it anyway there's all these different, you know, myths and things that are done in the movies to make it more interesting. But there's a guy on TikTok by the name of Andy Jiang who has decided that he wants to debunk some of these common myths. Okay.

I found this really quite interesting. Here's a clip of him debunking three movie myths. Top three most ridiculous myths that we believe because of movies. This just isn't how chloroform works. In movies, chloroform is like the ultimate weapon. In the real world, chloroform just isn't that effective. It generally takes around five minutes for something to get knocked out. Number two, pulling a grenade pin out with your teeth.

Real life grenade pins are designed to be extremely difficult to pull out. And if you try with your teeth, you'll probably break your teeth and number one quicksand equals death in reality quicksand is literally just mud mixed with water a pretty vast majority of quicksand just pulls you waist deep and doesn't pull you any deeper i've got so many questions how did he find out about the chloroform one how did he figure that out you probably can if you five minutes who did he hold a chloroform cloth over for five minutes? Probably says it on the bottle, to be honest. The grenade one, I can understand.

I mean, obviously they pull it out with their teeth in movies for... For dramatic effect. For dramatic effect. I want to know if they did any grenade teeth pulling on Saving Private Ryan now. You know? They do it in a lot of movies. Yeah, Rambo and that would have done it with his teeth. You see it in a lot of films.

The quicksand one I feel particularly ripped off by because I feel like every movie from my childhood involved quicksand and I remember thinking that quicksand was going to be a way bigger issue in my adult life than it's ever ended up being but it's actually just a bit of a little bit of sinky sand is that it yeah look um quicksand I feel like I've known this for a long time because I grew up on a farm and we more than once have gotten ourselves into um quicksand i feel like i've known this for a long time because i grew up on a farm and we more than once have gotten ourselves into a quicksand type of situation are you kidding me you've been in quicksand yeah absolutely okay like well i wouldn't say it was sand how far did you sink yeah to my waist are you kidding and then one time and this is not a joke, and it was so essentially what it was, it was we had a dam and we'd had a drought.

So all the water had left the dam. And there was one particular part of the dam that was quite sandy and muddy. And we decided we wanted to see if we could walk all the way across through the dam. And we got stuck and sunk all the way into our chest. And then my dad had to get one of the tractors and tied a rope around our chest and pulled us out. What the frick is going on? Were you terrified you were going to die? No, because you knew that you weren't going to sink.

Did your dad think he was going to rip you in half with the tractor? It's sand. It's not bloody super glue. Jeez. If I sunk way steeper in the quicksand, I'd need a big dose of chloroform to calm down. Play. ZM's brand Clint. On Insta, Facebook, TikTok, and live weekdays from 3 on ZM.
