Hello everyone and welcome to the podcast. Clint not here today. He and his wife had
their second baby. Give them a round guys, give them a round. Little baby girl on Saturday morning,
little baby Maggie. So he won't be here for the next week. But big surprise guys,
we have the one, the only, Kimberly Crossman joining us.
Woo!
That's me bringing myself in.
Yeah.
Oh, thanks.
Here we go.
That's more like it.
That feels about right.
That feels like the right temperature for the right interest.
Your first big radio gig, some would say.
How do you feel you went today?
I think it's been highs and lows.
I would say highs.
I bought some different attitudes and ideas.
People seem to respond well.
And some lows.
I've ruined a laptop, a phone, my my dress and some of my dignity which and there
wasn't a lot there so that's kind of where i'm at yeah well you know what welcome to radio i say
that's pretty much sums it up i mean i could have just yeah gone a bit slower into it and
but that's okay if um we've got people uh all over the world that listen to this podcast so
if you don't know who Kimberly is,
I love to call you by your full name,
Kim Crossman.
If you don't know who Kim Crossman is,
she's an actress,
does a lot of different things,
but a brilliant at comedy,
brilliant at acting,
does all the things,
follow her on social media.
Cause she's amazing.
And we appreciate you being here with us.
Don't we, producers?
We do, yeah.
It's been good.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Yeah, definitely.
It's good to have her here.
And it's stable.
That sounded really sarcastic.
It did.
It did sound sarcastic.
I'm so sorry, Kim.
It's okay.
You said nice things.
I'll take the compliments.
Things to look forward to in the podcast.
We trick Kim into thinking she'd won $10,000.
Which is a cruel thing to do to a struggling actor.
But also hilarious.
Yeah, true.
What a sadistic game that you played.
And we also switched out a glass of water for vodka
where you nearly threw up on air.
Yeah, yeah.
I mean, I was throwing up vodka less than a week ago.
So it really, really fired up those saliva glands.
Normally when we give Bray a glass of vodka,
telling her it's a glass of water,
she sips it way too quickly and enjoys it.
And we don't get that effect.
So it was nice that you spat it out and weren't keen
because normally she just enjoys it and asks more.
I do enjoy a glass of straight vodka, no ice, during the show.
She always says, another one?
Yeah, we're cutting you off, Brie.
You can't keep doing the show like this.
Have you guys ever had grappa?
Oh, is this what you used to have with your grandparents?
Yeah, my nonna and nonno uh and italians will know this um drink
from the old country it's called grappa it smells like methylated spirits tastes like it and no
surprises it is actually just straight it's very close to it it's like 80 something percent alcohol
and my nonna used to put it in her coffee every night and she loved it. Also, coffee at night.
There's a lot there.
There's a lot of information.
My nona was a very driven woman.
I bet.
You know, she said it how it was.
One day I remember I went over to my nona's house
and my mum had dyed my hair and, in fairness, it was quite dark
and my nona looked at me and she goes,
Brianna, your hair looked like shit.
You'll never get the boyfriend.
And she was right. And I said
you know, nana, I've got bigger problems.
It's nothing to do with the
hair, mate. No, no, not at all.
Anyone have any other inputs
Ben? How was the birthday?
How was the birthday? Oh yeah, over the weekend
it was good. We went to the beer fest together on Saturday.
It was lovely.
Now Clint's never going to forget your birthday.
True.
You know, baby daughter, same birthday.
So does that mean, yeah, that you've got the same birthday?
Happy birthday, by the way.
I didn't know.
Thank you.
I would have led with that.
So that's compliments to your character, actually,
that you didn't lead with that when we met today.
Oh, no.
Well, it was on Saturday. It wasn't today. By the way, we met today. Oh no, well it was on Saturday.
It wasn't today.
I'm going to be like,
by the way,
nice to meet you.
On Saturday it was my birthday.
This thing that only happens
to everyone once a year.
When's your birthday, Kim?
May 24th.
Coming up.
It's coming up.
Happy birthday.
Thank you so much.
Turning 24 on the 24th?
Always.
Always.
Kim and I are born the same year.
Really? Came from the same year. Really?
Came from the same decade, didn't we?
Yep.
That's why we're so in tune with each other.
I was watching one of the stories on our Instagram earlier
of all of us dancing to the birthday banger today.
Kim, anything she does looks graceful and just like cute
and then it pans to me.
You are a very good dancer.
She used to do a part of your, obviously like a triple threat.
Oh, no, I'm not a triple threat.
Let's hear some singing.
Should we hear a few bars?
Should we hear a few bars from Kim?
No, we won't.
What song would you like to sing?
What would be your karaoke song?
Darude Sandstorm.
Here we go.
That does not count.
Yeah, it does.
No, that doesn't count.
There's no lyrics.
Before the end of the week, we will hear Kim Christmas sing.
I would rather rap for you.
Yeah, that's fine.
Okay.
What rap would you like to prepare for later in the week?
Well, now I can't think of any songs Because the way my brain works
It's self-sabotaging
I promise I'll sing
I'll at least do like
Say like Nelly Country Grammar
Or something like that for you
Wait
Before the end of the week
Let me practice it
And get it real good
Alright
How does that song go again?
I'll just get it
Hold up
No
If only someone could
Sing it to you
Like hold on Is it Country It's not Ride With Me Is it Country Grammar That's the album I'll just get it. Hold on. No. If only someone could sing a few verses. Hold on.
Is it Country?
It's not Ride With Me.
Is it Country Grammar?
That's the album.
I think that's what it's called.
Ride With Me.
Ride With Me.
Ben's just said that the computer's gone down.
Fast forward it until he can actually rap it.
The one I would really like to do for you is an Eminem song,
but I'm pretty sure you cannot do that on this.
No, this podcast is...
What song are you going to do from Eminem?
I would do Drug Ballad because I could do that.
Go on.
I haven't even heard that song ever.
What do you mean?
I'll tell you what it is.
This was the...
Marsha Mathers LP was the first explicit album I was ever bought
when I was far too young.
And here's the thing with me, which is why I make,
and I'll say it, a great actress.
I can remember lines and lyrics very easily.
When I hear something, I'm an audible learner.
So I was able to do the full Marshall Mathers LP from start to finish,
verbatim, not even knowing what I was saying.
There you go.
I'd like to ask you, and everyone sitting here,
did you guys see online that Justin Bieber put Eminem
in his top five rappers of all time the other day?
What do you mean?
Like he said he's one of the best in the world.
Yeah, he like said for me he is my top five, huh?
Did he say number one or did he just, oh,
was he just talking about Eminem and he said he's top five? He said he would be in my top five. Huh? Did he say number one or did he just, oh, was he just talking about Eminem
and he said he's top five? He said he would be in my top five.
Do you disagree? No, I don't
disagree. I would put Eminem
in my top five, which I know is controversial.
Not everyone thinks that.
What do you guys think? But it also depends on your, when you,
like, for us, I feel like during that time
where you're like, swearing.
Yeah, yeah. And he bridged that gap
from pop to,
at that time that we were probably right
for the pickings for that kind of thing.
What about our gen, our resident gen Zetta?
Would Eminem be in your top five?
Yeah, probably more recently.
I've discovered quite a few songs on Friday Jams
that I've never heard before that are really cute.
I'm glad that we can educate you. No, last year I listened to a lot of, I've discovered quite a few songs on Friday Jams that I've never heard before that are really good.
I'm glad that we can educate you. No, last year I listened to a lot of Eminem.
Yeah, yeah.
You're like, I watched this amazing documentary film.
It was called 8 Mile.
Yeah, it was set in the 1800s.
Yeah, yeah.
Okay, there you go.
So you've just found a newfound love for Eminem.
Yeah, no, only last year, yeah. What about you, Producer Ben? Yeah, I'd put him in my top five, yeah. Okay, there you go. So you've just found a newfound love for Eminem. Yeah, no, only last year, yeah.
What about you, Producer Ben?
Yeah, I'd put him in my top five easily.
Who's been your guys' number ones, though?
Probably would be actually Eminem.
Really?
Yeah, probably.
Hard to go past Biggie.
Oh.
He's amazing.
Old school?
Like, I watched a documentary
Not a documentary
It's like a mockumentary
Or the story
On him
And how he died
And all this kind of stuff
I think it's on Netflix
I haven't seen that
Well it's not the story about that
But it's the story about the cop
That does all this research
And tries to bring justice
To his family
And all this kind of stuff.
It's a really interesting watch.
And he was like, do you know he was only 24 when he died?
That's crazy.
The amount of stuff like he accomplished before
and I think can you imagine what he would have done?
That's the saddest part about all those musicians,
even all the people in the 27 Club.
Yeah.
Isn't it interesting, like, that era?
But then I loved the movie about NWA.
What an amazing film that was.
So good.
That's incredible.
And then, I mean, look at Ice Cube now.
He's in all those.
Are we done yet?
Are we there yet?
No. I was part of that. What's part of that Again don't call me young for this
Haven't you seen those films
But I didn't know he was a rapper
I knew him as the actor
And I was like he's the guy that always plays
The angry psycho dad in all those movies
And then I found out
That he was actually like such an icon
As a musician
He does do a really good job
at the angry voice
have you seen the, I think it's on
Jimmy Kimmel where he gets him to read
things but in his angry voice
that he like does, it's so good
nursery rhymes or something
that's so funny, anger is my hardest
emotion, in life and
as an actor, yeah I really struggle
I have to have a lot of acting coaching if I ever have to do anything angry.
Question.
Yeah.
How easy is it to cry on camera?
I mean, depending on the day, but usually pretty easy.
Should we test it tomorrow?
Yeah, yeah, I'm keen.
We should test it.
Okay.
I'd give you a run for your money.
I just poke myself in the eye.
Yeah, but that's not.
I'm just kidding. That's not. That doesn's not. Can you give me some acting tips?
I really want to be a thespian. Sure.
What's like the best tip? Listening. Listen.
Really listen.
Really respond. What do you think is your
strongest emotion
that you can portray?
Vacant.
Okay, ready? Do some
vacant right now. Well, here's what I learned.
The best way to play stupid, so I
get cast as a lot of kind of
blonde and small.
Isn't that so funny?
But it's the funniest way to portray
being vacant is to act like you're the smartest person in the room.
And then you look the stupidest.
So that's the probably best acting I can give you.
Right.
I would never have thought to do that.
I had to say a line on the show Black-ish.
Coffee makes me poop.
And that was like my one line. And so if you just say it more like, yeah, like it's a matter of fact kind of thing,
then it's funnier.
We should also get her to say funny lines in her American accent.
We'll see how many.
Teach you how to do an American accent.
How many accents you can do?
Tongue out, yeah.
Can you do British?
I can do accents.
Breeze on the accents. I'll do accents. Bree's on the accents.
I'll take the acting, you take the accents.
I'm very good at accents.
Together we'll make a star.
I'm really bad at great.
Bree's pretty good.
Pretty.
One time when we were looking for Channing Tatum,
I called Channing Tatum's gym and pretended to be Jessie J
and it did not go down well.
It was not good.
Wonderful.
I think they bought it, though.
They didn't.
Actually, they did not.
In conclusion, they did not.
In conclusion, we were banned from that gym.
Can we give you some training?
Maybe you could.
Oh, okay.
He's not dating her right now.
Maybe you could try a gym again with someone else's girlfriend.
How could we put, like, you give
me some acting skills,
some, like, tips, and then we put them to
the test. I like this idea.
Do you want me to pretend to be
you in an audition and see how I
go? Sounds like you want to do that.
We could do that,
but I've also in the past got people to read
for me for auditions if you're making a tape.
And they've gone back, like, the feedback being like, Kim's probably not right for it, but who is it that was reading for you?
No!
Yeah.
That's horrible!
No, it's fine.
I mean, how do I get that?
So from now on you get the worst actors you know to...
No, but it is a bit like, yeah.
Acting is a funny, incestuous
business. You've got to be careful who you're getting to read
with you because some people, you don't want them to go,
now I've got the script, now I want that role.
Oh my gosh.
Well, you can pick me because we all know
I won't ever get a job in acting.
That is true.
Don't be so mean to each other.
Oh my, you're a good actor.
Got this.
Time to go.
Well, we'll be back tomorrow.
Kim will be here.
Ben will be here.
Congrats, Kim.
And Stasia will be here.
It's your first day.
Oh, I get to come back to me.
Can we give her a round of applause?
Woo!
Funnily enough, this is also the sound they play at the clinic
when you don't have chlamydia.
Pop.
Yay!
Hey, Google, what's the time?
It's 3pm, give or take a minute.
Alexa, play ZM on iHeartRadio.
Playing ZM on iHeartRadio.
Hey, Siri, when are Brie and Clint on?
Brie and Clint are on air in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
Good afternoon, New Zealand.
It's just Brie here, no Clint,
because Clint and his wife Lucy welcomed a beautiful baby girl into the world on Saturday morning.
Her name is Maggie and she is everything.
But don't worry, because Clint's away.
We've got in backup.
And her name is Kim Crossman,
and she's joining me all week this week.
G'day, Kim.
G'day.
Thanks for having me.
Where did we rustle you up from?
Aren't you living, you know, overseas somewhere?
Yeah, well, I'm back from LA.
Little thing caught a global pandemic.
How cool.
And, yeah, and, you know, I just saw on Instagram this weekend
that, you know, Clint's had a baby and so.
And you messaged me for the first time in a year.
Yeah, yeah, straight.
But did the whole, hey, hope you've been well, you know,
a couple of like fluffer kind of messages first.
Yeah, and then, hey, just looking for a gig.
I heard Clint's away and I was like, oh, weird time to big message.
If you don't know who Kim is, well, where have you been?
She's in Funny Girl.
She's in Golden Boy.
She's in, well, everything under the sun that's on New Zealand television
plus a whole lot more.
We're going to have a great time this week, mate.
Looking forward to it.
One of my favourite things on the show today is just after four,
you and I are going to try and win $10,000 live on this show.
Normally, we give away the money,
but today you and I are going to take part in a competition
live on the radio where we will try and win the money.
This is amazing.
I've never been paid that much for a job before.
Thank you guys so much for the opportunity.
I mean, I know you're a struggling actor,
so it's always good to try and win some money.
It is, yeah, yeah.
And I'll do anything really for cash so it's great.
Perfect.
That's why you're here, you know, stooping to new lows,
being a part of our show.
But also, like normal, we're going to do Tradie v Lady.
0800 DIAL ZM, 50 bucks on the line.
If you want to take on someone else,
all you have to do is be better at trivia than them.
Before that, let's rip into Shawn Mendes' Monster
on ZM with Brie and Clint.
Kim Crossman filling in for the week.
Brie and Clint.
Clint away.
They've welcomed their next baby into the world, him and his wife,
which is very exciting.
So Kim Crossman is joining me for the week.

All right, guys, here's how it works.
Kim is going to read out the questions.

You can answer first of three right, wins the 50 bucks, okay?
Awesome.
All right, here we go.
Take it away, Kim.
All right, question number one.
It's multi-choice.
Jason Derulo and his partner have announced they're pregnant today.
How many followers does he have on TikTok?
A.
Ooh.
Tradies in first, Michaela.
I'm just going to take a guess at 10,000.
Okay.
No, that's not right.
I'll give you the multi-choice and then you can guess it.
Okay, so we'll do A, 15.1 million.
B, 38.7 million. C, 44.2 million, or D?
Ladies.
Yes, Alice?
B?
38.7? You're going with B?
Yeah.
That's not right. Do you want one more guess, Michaela?
Am I able to get you to read out the answers again? Yeah, sure. So A, 15.1 million.
B, 38.7 million. C, 44.2 million. Or D, 53.3 million. I'm going to go with A. A, 15.1 million.
That's wrong. All right, we're moving on. No one gets that question right. He actually has 44.2 million followers.
Yeah, crazy.
All right, question number two.
Name the ex One Direction boy member who sings this song.
Lady.
All right, lady.
Alice, you're in.
Niall.
That is correct.
Nice work, Niall Horan.
That song was mahoosive for him.
It was.
One to the ladies.
All right, question number three.
Phoebe Deniver?
I think that's her name.
Yeah.
Phoebe Deniver from Bridgerton is allegedly now dating SNL comic Pete Davidson.
What is the name of his ex-pop star?
Oh, Alice is in.
Ariana Grande?
That's correct.
Ooh.
Lady pulls away with two points.
Come on, Michaela.
You need this one to stay in it, okay?
Yeah.
Question number four.
If I was eating escargot, what would I be eating?
Lady.
Ooh, Alice for the win.
Snails?
She's done it.
She's a lady.
Whoa, whoa, whoa. She's a lady. Oh, oh, oh, she's a lady.
Unlucky Michaela.
Alice, you pick up that 50 bucks.
Nice work.
Woo-hoo.
Thank you so much.
Absolutely killing it.
Bree and Clint.
I apparently said before that that was Sam Smith.
It's Monday.
Apparently I am rusty on this old back announcing thing.
So give me a break.
We'll see if we can get there.
Kim Crossman filling in for Clint, who is away,
looking after his new baby daughter, Maggie.
Very cute.
But something I wanted to talk about with you, Kim,
because I feel like we can discuss this as the ladies of the show.
As I heard Fletch Vaughan and Megan talking about this,
where they did stats on who they have voted the sexiest bald man in the world.
Now I don't know if you know this
about me, but I have a real thing
for bald men. Okay. Like I met
your stepdad last
night and I was like, hello
cheapy.
Just to give you guys a bit of a
visual, he often gets
mistaken for Mark Sainsbury.
Hey, he was a bit of me.
Moustaches, bald heads, I'm in like Flynn.
He'll be stoked to hear this.
He's not on the list.
But do you want to hear who did make the list of the sexiest bald men?
It would be a weird break if I said no.
So, yeah, definitely, I do want to hear.
Quite boring if you said no.
Let's go with number 10.
Of course, he's iconic.
He's done about 28 of these Fast and the Furious films.
It's Vin Diesel coming in at number 10.
And right behind him, also in the Fast and the Furious franchise,
Dwayne The Rock Johnson.
At number nine.
At number nine.
Interesting.
I thought he would have been well up there.
That's what I was thinking.
So you're probably thinking, who is, like, coming in after these guys? Because they're pretty up there for That's what I was thinking. So you're probably thinking who is like coming in after these guys because they're pretty up there for me.
Yeah. Now my brain's gone. You can't think of any other bald men.
I can think of a few. And here is some. Coming in at number
eight. I mean he's an icon. He's been in every action film known to man.
Bruce Willis. There's a bit of a theme here with action men and baldness isn't there?
Well let's take it back to a musical man.
Well, he has been in musicals and amongst other things, John Travolta.
He's the type of man that I felt like when he ended up making the decision
to shave his head took off 10 years.
He looked 10 years younger, I reckon.
It was a great decision.
No?
Yep, I guess I stand by that.
I can only see him with hair in my head, but yeah, sure.
Trust me, do yourself a favour.
Have a wee Google.
Yeah, Google John Travolta with a bald head.
It is for everyone.
The boxer coming in at number six, Floyd Mayweather,
also one of the richest athletes and people in the world.
Very wealthy man.
And that's all I'll say about him.
Now, coming in at number 5
massive doco that came out about him last year
Michael Jordan
I feel like he's a bit of everyone
just because he's so talented
you're really quiet over there
none of these men are my cup of tea
so I'm just maybe I shut the door on board.
Keep going and I'll see.
If number four isn't for you, I'm going to throw my hat at you
and I'm not wearing a hat.
Number four, Pitbull.
Mr. Worldwide.
Mr. Worldwide.
You know, he's just for everyone.
Yeah.
Coming in at number three, this guy has to be for you, Jason Statham.
Oh, you know what?
Yes, I am very hot in the pants for Jason Statham.
I don't know if we can say that on the radio at three o'clock,
but I'm here for it.
Number two, Mike Tyson coming in at number two.
Over Dwayne The Rock Johnson?
I know.
I don't think so.
I don't know about that
Who did this survey?
I'm not sure, but coming in at number one
For the world's most sexy bald men
It's Prince William
You're a tough critic, aren't you?
I just feel like this top ten needs to be flipped
If it was flipped, I would understand.
Yeah, put Vin My Diesel up at number one.
Well, at least The Rock up there.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And Jason Statham is, yeah, great.
I'm glad our opinion matters the most.
It does, doesn't it?
I thought what we could do, because if there's one thing I know
is bald men, I love me a bald man.
And I feel like I can sense when a man is bald on the phone.
So I thought we could play a game this afternoon where I need men to call.
Doesn't matter if you're bald or if you're not bald.
We don't want to know that.
But we're going to guess based on one question if the men calling our show this afternoon are bald.
I love this idea.
And so you're going to make a call based on their vocal register
and just their overall demeanour.
Just their vibe.
Yeah, I just feel the vibe in my waters and we'll see how we go.
0800 dial ZM.
I need men to call the show now.
Please, men, call.
Please call.
Please call.
We'd love to hear from you.
We're talking about this article that has talked about
the sexiest
bald men in the world where people aren't happy with the results.
Prince William coming in number one and Mike Tyson number two.
I feel like Jason Statham is right at number three, but, you know.
Yeah.
But we thought we'd like to do a bit of a game this afternoon called
Are You Bald?
Based on the latest article where you call us,
we'll ask you a couple of questions and then based on those questions,
we're going to guess if you're bald or not.
Contestant number one, please welcome to the show, Reese.
Hello, Reese.
Hey.
All right, question for Rhys.
Rhys, I'd like to know what shoe size do you wear?
11.
Okay, 11.
Good, strong shoe size.
Do you have any questions for Rhys?
Rhys, do you have a pet?
I've got two cats.
Yeah, their names are Biddy and Ziggy.
I'm going to say...
What are you feeling?
I'm feeling it in my gut that Rhys is bald.
Really?
Yeah.
I'm not feeling that.
Not with the cats and the size 11s?
Okay, we could disagree.
Okay, we will.
You're going bald.
I'm going he's got a head of hair on him.
Let's see.
Rhys, what are you?
I am bald.
Yes.
Oh, I felt it.
It was one of those really strong gut things.
Connections.
Yeah, it was.
Thank you, Rhys.
I appreciate that.
All right, one to Kim Crossman.
Up next, please welcome to the game, John.
Hello, John. Hello, John.
Hello.
Question for John.
I've got one.
John, out of curiosity, do you wear pyjamas to sleep at night?
No, I just sleep in my underwear.
Interesting.
I'm going to do a follow-on question from that.
What particular brand or type of underwear, John?
Last night I slept in Calvin Klein.
Whoa.
Fancy, John.
Whoa.
Okay.
What are you feeling?
Because you are the bald psychic.
I guess I am.
Mate, this guy's got full head of hair, but he's a bit of product, I reckon.
Yep.
Yeah, I think so too.
I'm going to say full head of hair.
We're unanimous on that.
John, what's the answer?
I have a huge afro.
Yes!
What colour, John?
Black.
Love that.
I love that.
And the Mike Helmets?
My gosh.
I'd love to have a partner with a big afro because you could hide things in it,
like when you go to the cinema.
Sure.
I'm sure that's a primary use.
That's what I used to do when my hair was out of control.
Thank you, John.
Last person to join us for the game,
and you wouldn't believe the name of this contestant.
We're just talking about Dwayne the Rock Johnson.
Please welcome to the show, Dwayne.
G'day, guys.
Just to clarify, Dwayne, this isn't Dwayne the Rock Johnson.
No, definitely not.
Okay, good.
We're just as excited.
Just want you to know we're just as excited.
Because that would be easy to pick if you're bald.
It would.
It's special, isn't it?
Thank you.
Dwayne, I've got a question straight out the gate.
Are you a breakfast eater?
No.
Mmm.
Dwayne, I've got a question.
Would you say you've got minimal body hair, medium, or a lot of body hair?
Minimal.
Does that give it away?
Now, look, I don't want to be Switzerland here,
but I feel like what we're dealing with here is not a full bald.
Like a heart? Like a, yeah, not a full bald. Like a heart?
Like a, yeah,
like a crater bald. Is that what it's called?
Where it's just like moving away from the crown of
the head, like where it starts.
Right. Yeah. So I would
classify that, if they're saying Prince William
is bald, which he is, and he is balding,
so we'll go bald.
Alright, we're locking in
bald for Dwayne.
What is it? You're on the money, mate.
Am I? I found my
skill. I found my talent. Dwayne,
is it like crater-like bald
or are you full bald?
I'm full bald. I've got too many graves
so I've got to get rid of a lot.
What age did you get rid of the whole lot, Dwayne?
I started at 16.
Early. And I, you know, appreciate What age did you get rid of the whole lot, Dwayne? I started at 16. Nice.
Early.
And I, you know, appreciate the courage that took, Dwayne.
And I bet you're a good-looking man, I can tell by his voice.
Yeah, I can too.
What's your Facebook, Dwayne?
Bree and Clint from iHeartRadio.
This is The Latest, live from LA with Dean McCarthy.
One of the most honest and upfront slash best abs in the business,
Dean McCarthy, tell us about the Donald Trump debacle
of him crashing a party.
Oh, my goodness, let me set the scene for you.
OK, it was at Mar-a-Lago, which is that fabulous resort in Florida
that Donald Trump owns, OK?
So there was a wedding going on.
So that kind of, like, lets you know that the people having a wedding at Mar-a-Lago are probably already kind of Trump owns, okay? So there was a wedding going on. So that kind of, like, lets you know that the people having a wedding
at Mar-a-Lago are probably already kind of Trumpy, okay?
So Trump there, anyway, he walks in and they're like,
oh, my God, get up here, get up here.
They've got, like, no teeth.
Get up on there.
Give us a little speech.
So he gets up, right, Donald Trump,
and they're expecting him to talk about the couple getting married.
There's Trump flags.
He goes into a Trump rally speech.
And I'm not even kidding.
Have a listen to this.
Here is some audio of Donald Trump at somebody's wedding talking about his career.
Have a listen to this.
They're telling me about China.
They're telling me about Iran.
How are we doing with Iran?
We're not dealing with the United States anymore.
They don't want to deal with us.
Do you miss me?
Dean, things are really gone downhill for Donald Trump
since he lost the presidency.
He's now doing these really paid, underpaid gigs at weddings
slash a little bit of stand-up, it sounds like.
Yeah.
That's exactly what it sounded like.
It was so ridiculous. He talked about Joe Biden. He talked about the wall. He talked about China.. That's exactly what it sounded like. It was so ridiculous.
He talked about Joe Biden.
He talked about the wall.
He talked about China.
And here's the interesting thing, though, everyone needs to remember.
He's banned from all of the major social media apps, right?
So Donald Trump can't tweet all of this stuff.
He now grabs microphones at weddings,
and he is now the wedding crasher of all wedding crashers at his own resort.
The only reason he was allowed there was because he owns the resort.
So hilarious.
And right at the end, after like this massive Trump speech rally vibe,
he's like, oh, yes, and the couple are very nice.
And so they're like, yes, thanks for mentioning us.
There you go.
Kim, if you want a Donald Trump message, I can get one.
He's on Cameo now doing messages for people.
Fantastic.
No, thank you.
I'll get it for your birthday.
No worries.
Thank me later.
Thank you so much,
Dean.
Bree and Clint.
Broadcasting live from a central location with convenient parking.
It's ZM's Bree and Clint.
Good afternoon, everyone.
Bree in the house, but
no Clint because him and his wife
Lucy welcomed their second
baby girl into the world, little Maggie.
Yay.
Very cute.
So he'll be away for the rest of the week but back very soon.
Also today filling in is Kimberly Crossman.
And all week.
How good?
And all week.
It's going to be great to have her here.
She's not in the studio at the moment,
so I just want to talk amongst friends at the moment.
So she, obviously, very accomplished actress, comedian,
but she hasn't done much radio.
So I thought, Producer Ben.
You're so mean, but I love it.
I love it.
To welcome her to the radio family.
Next, she's, are we sure she's not here?
No, she's not here.
So next, what we're going to do is we're going to stitch her up massively
with a classic radio prank. Nice. Are we going to tell everyone? Yeah, we're going to do is we're going to stitch her up massively with a classic radio prank.
Nice.
Are we going to tell everyone?
Yeah, we're going to tell everyone.
So what we're going to do is there's this competition that's running
in the UK at the moment where if you find a Cadbury cream egg
that's coloured gold, you win 5,000 pounds.
Great.
Bring it to New Zealand.
I know, right?
She doesn't know that it's not in New Zealand.
And what we've done, we've spray painted an egg goal.
Yeah.
And we're going to just happen to open this egg live on air.
She's going to think we've won $10,000.
And it's going to be great.
It's going to be awesome.
Yeah, cool.
Let's do it.
Kimberly Crossman, welcome to the radio family.
We're coming for you next.
Your first radio prank.
Bree and Clint.
Clint away.
He's had his baby.
Second baby.
It's a baby girl, Maggie.
If you want to see the pictures, go to his socials.
Kim Crossman is joining me for the afternoon
and for the rest of the week actually,
depending on how today goes.
I wasn't promised four days actually.
No, this is an audition.
Yeah, great, perfect.
You'd be used to that.
But I thought something we could do that's quite cool
is that we give away a lot of money on this show
and that's one of the best parts of the gig is giving away prizes and cash.
We gave away $50,000 last week for Secret Sound.
I came across this competition where we potentially could win $10,000
ourselves on this show.
That's a whole year's wage for us.
And so, yeah, that's great.
This is good for a struggling actress like yourself.
Yeah, yeah.
So let me give you the details.
It's actually competition Cabri are running at the moment
and they're marking the 50th anniversary of Cream Eggs.
50 years Cream Eggs have been around.
And what they're doing is that they've put out, there's not many,
there's only 200 gold cream eggs that you can find,
kind of like Willy Wonka and the Golden Ticket.
Okay.
Where apparently the egg is coloured pure gold
and if you find one of these, you win $10,000.
The egg is worth 10 grand.
Wow.
Okay. Okay. Now I just, okay. If I, if I happen to win,
let's discuss this ahead of time. So let's just tell people what's going on. You've got 10 cream
eggs. I've got 10 Cadbury cream eggs. We're going to open these on air to see if we can win 10
grand. This is fantastic. What happens if one of us win? I mean, as if it's going to happen,
but what happens?
It could. Let's be positive. My whole theory about luck is you have to at least think you're
lucky. Okay. Yep. Alright.
So, we split it, obviously.
Obviously. Or we thirds and go to
charity because otherwise people will
hate us.
Or, let's involve the producers
because they're a part of the show. But are they
unwrapping the... Hold on.
Actually, I want four more dates.
Of course.
I'd love to include them.
The producers you just hear in the background, bring back Clint.
Bring back Clint.
All right.
So let's do it.
Let's get some suspenseful music.
Who wants to win $10,000?
I do.
I do.
All right.
So we've got eggs here.
Okay.
I feel like this is going to be a radio fail.
Nah, that's just a normal old boring chocolate egg.
What have you got over there?
Second egg, a no.
It's a chocolate egg.
My second is a big no.
Third egg is a no.
Fourth egg.
Let's go one for one.
No.
Let's go one for one.
Makes it more eventful.
Okay. No.
What number are you up to?
I'm about to do my fifth egg.
Okay. And it's
a...
What?
How did you do that? The foil was
confusing. There was an overlap.
Inconsistent foil wrapping
in that. Right, no.
My fifth egg is a big
no. My
sixth egg
is a no. It's going to be very boring if nothing
happens. Alright, my
sixth is a no. My
seventh is a no.
Okay, this is lucky seven for me.
Oh my god!
Oh my god! Oh my goodness! Are me. Oh, my God! Oh, my God!
Oh, my goodness.
Are you serious?
Oh, my God!
No.
What?
Did you get one?
It's gold!
Oh, my goodness!
Oh, my God!
I want to hug you, but you're too far away.
What? No. Is it really? Really? I mean, it is, I want to hug you, but you're too far away. What?
No.
Is it really?
I mean, it is, but is it...
Oh, no, we spray painted this one.
Oh, you are just touching me up.
Are you serious?
It's all fake.
Welcome to radio, baby.
Brie and Clint.
Clint away.
Kim Crossman filling in for the week.
Are you enjoying it because I laugh at all your jokes?
It's so good.
Whereas Kat's Clint's like a bit like...
Over it?
Yeah.
I'm fresh meat, mate.
Yeah, I know.
Loving all of it.
Give you a couple of days and we'll see how you're going.
Something quite interesting that I came across this morning.
Are you about the star sign life?
Like do you take, you know, on board what star sign you are? Who are you meant to star sign life like do you take you know on board what star sign you are
who you're meant to be matched with so I have the worst star sign because I'm a Gemini and so it's
just means that everyone's like oh two face two sides of you like it's never a positive response
if you say what are you and then the response is I'm a Gemini. The follow-up response is, oh. Yeah, but good for Gemini.
If you don't like one of their personalities, you're bound to like the other one. Yes, often my
family will say when I wake up, they'll go, and who have we got today?
Which is actually a callback to my own mental health and stability in life
but also my star sign as a Gemini. Well, there you go. A Gemini. That's interesting.
I don't know if you know this,
but I am the resident zodiac expert on the show.
Great.
And sometimes I like to talk like this.
Yes, of course.
And I've got a very interesting article here
which talks about, you know, star signs
and what that means when it comes to money, you know,
and how you are with money based on your zodiac sign.
Or as Fat Man Scoop said, what's your zodiac sign? Would you like to hear yours?
No, I already know what you'll say. You'll go, oh, you're a Gemini, you're rubbish with money.
And then I have to sit here and be like, guys, make a plan.
I'm actually not that bad.
No, let's see what the article says.
All right.
Just because, I mean, we're doing a radio show.
Sure, sure, sure.
It's more fun that way.
Of course.
So it says here for Gemini's, you're a natural risk taker.
It's important for you to put safe spending habits and a budget in place.
Are you listening?
This is good advice.
If you struggle to commit to a budget,
consider asking a friend or accountant to help.
In 2021, there will be ongoing fluctuations in your work.
Like this week, you have a job.
Next week, maybe not.
So ensure you keep a little aside in case of an occasional rainy day.
Fantastic.
That's pretty spot on for you, I feel.
Oh, ouch. Thank you.
And in conclusion, as I
spoiler alert, suggested,
Kim is rubbish with money. Yeah, good.
Great. Okay. What's
your one? Mine? Someone else
who's rubbish with money.
I'm quite responsible.
That's what I tell my parents.
I'm a Capricorn.
It says here for me,
budgeting and financial planning are your BFFs,
but you don't mind a spending spree every now and then.
That's so true.
Try not to take on more financial obligations than necessary
and use your ability to reason and strategise
to create a solid financial platform in 2021.
Interesting.
Don't I splurge sometimes, Producer Ben?
Sometimes.
A lot.
A lot.
Am I your 2021 financial obligation?
As my new best friend.
Being my sugar baby.
Yeah, so I feel like... Okay, so they are pretty spot on.
That's interesting.
I feel like, yeah, according to you and I, they're quite spot on.
Do you feel like, I want to test this article because I feel like,
you know, people read this, they only read their own,
so we never really can test these things.
Sure.
I say we get people on.
I'll 800 dial ZM if you've got a star sign other than Gemini or Capricorn, because
we've already done those. And we'll
test. We'll give you
what they've said in this article and you tell us if it's
right or not. Or perhaps you're a unicorn that
is a Gemini and you're very financially
stable. For my own emotional
well-being, it would be great to know that there's at
least a future for me. Or it'd be
horrible to hear from someone who can
do good with money.
That is a Gemini, you know.
We'll take anything.
Oh, 800 dials at M.
Bree and Clint.
Something we do on this show, Kim,
and I feel like you're going to slot right into this,
is we like to give Zodiac advice.
And when we do this, we have to talk like this.
In a calming tone.
Very calming.
We could charge a lot of money.
But this afternoon it's free.
Wow.
What we're doing this afternoon is we're giving you financial advice
and what you're like with your money based on your star sign.
So we've done ours.
We feel like they're pretty spot on, mainly for you.
You did present this as your own thing.
In conclusion, I'm bad and you're good.
I'll be bringing my own ideas to the show tomorrow.
But anyway.
Good, now time you did some work.
Just kidding.
All right, so we know ours.
Let's get some other people on to see if this article is spot on or not.
Sure.
Well, please welcome to the show, Chelsea.
Hello, Chelsea.
Hello, how are you?
Do you find our voices calming?
Yes, very.
Good.
I like how you're doing it now too, Chelsea.
I have a cold, actually.
Well, just commit.
Commit to it.
Commit to it.
Chelsea, that was so funny.
All right, Chelsea, tell me, what star sign are you?
I'm sorry, I'm a Taurus.
All right, Taurus.
Let me see here.
Let me feel what's on the wind for you, Chelsea.
It says here for a Taurus, all that glitters isn't gold,
but this doesn't stop you from enjoying the little bit of luxury that you love.
Consider spending more time and less money on the important areas of your life,
like a peace of mind and people you love.
What are your thoughts on that, Chelsea?
That's pretty true, actually.
Is it?
I'm not that great with money.
Really?
Yeah, okay.
Yeah, but by the sound of it, it sounds like you've got a big heart.
Oh, thank you.
And that's the main thing.
Now, best of luck with getting over that cold, Chelsea.
Yeah.
Yeah, let's hope so.
Join us on the show anytime.
Let's move along to Alina.
Hello, Alina.
Hello.
What star sign are you, my love?
I'm an Aquarius.
Oh. Quite Quite adventurous Aquarians
aren't you Alina?
Definitely
I'm going to make a prediction
based on that
What do you think it's going to say Kim?
Okay, based on her
fun vocal register
and that she sounds playful by nature,
I'm going to say no savings, no good at money.
Jesus!
We just did mine and I was hung out to dry.
And I reckon Alina can handle it.
I would love to be wrong.
Alina, here's what the article says about you and your financial habits.
It says, while you prefer you and your financial habits. It says,
while you prefer tried and tested financial practices, you're also drawn to digital
currencies and new and innovative investments. Bitcoin. With the world moving rapidly,
you'll do well to change your savings and financial investments in line with changing times.
Do you have any Bitcoin, Alina? I do not. Well, to change your savings and financial investments in line with changing times. Wow.
Do you have any Bitcoin, Alina?
I do not.
Oh.
Who would have thought that the Zodiac advice was wrong?
Was I spot on, Alina?
Yeah, I'm very adventurous and I barely have any savings.
Neither do I, mate.
Let's hang out.
Let's do something crazy.
Let's go spend all our money. Yeah, good for me.
Alright, we'll get your number after the show, Alina. Let's do one more.
Hannah, welcome to the show. Hannah?
Hi, how are you? Good, thanks. How are you? Yeah, good. Are you looking for
a bit of guidance in the money kind of sector? I would
love to know what you have to say, Brie. Okay, perfect, because I have been
involved in this industry for all of 10 minutes.
So Hannah, tell me, what star sign are you?
I am a Leo. Leo the lion.
A lot of pride. Please don't stop my music, producer Ben.
It gives me the vibe I need, okay?
It says here, Hannah, the star sign most likely to overindulge or splurge.
Over time, you'll learn to tone down your tendency to overspend,
but to establish a happy medium, remember moderation in all things
will help you stay on a steady financial course.
What are your thoughts on that, Hannah?
Yeah, I do agree.
I'm a saver.
I like to think I'm a saver.
As I say this, however, I am sitting in a mall parking lot about to go in.
Right, right.
And would you say you've got like a good cash amount in savings? Yeah, I do. But I
love the finer things. So maybe I do splurge. That's so weird, Hannah,
because it also says here, hold on, there's one more bit.
You will meet two radio ladies by the name of Bree and Kim, who
you would love to give your savings to.
Or at very least just some tips.
Yeah, tips or tricks or just even a drink.
We'll take a drink.
Do you know what?
I'll take up on that.
That's a good thing.
Winners.
Good, because I don't think this career is going anywhere.
Bree and Clint.
What's their name?
What's their name?
His real name ain't some shady real or fake name baby.
What is their real name?
Well, he deals with that bloody new baby at home.
I'll tell you what, Kim Crossman joining us for the whole week,
which has been a pleasure so far.
Yep, best in small doses, I overheard my mother saying once,
so that's good.
I've been described like that before too,
so that's probably why we get along.
This is the game that doesn't have a name, but essentially the way we play is producer Anastasia will give us the name of celebrities
and we have to decide was it their name that they were given at birth or was it a stage name or have they changed it in any way?
So is it a real or is it a fake name?
Fantastic.
We also have a partner in crime for this game,
and let's welcome to the show TJ.
Hi, TJ.
How are you going?
Who would you like to play with, TJ?
Bree, please.
All right, mate.
You're my partner, which means, Brianna, you will have Kim.
Awesome.
Sounds good.
All right.
It's happening, Brianna.
We've got this.
All right.
So because it's Kim's first week, how about we start with celebrity number one for her?
Let's go.
All right.
So your first celebrity is Justin Timberlake.
Now you can discuss with your partner.
Brianna, do we feel like this was his birth name or a stage name?
Nah, it got to be first name.
Birth name.
Okay.
So we're going to...
You're pretty sure about that, Brianna. Well, she's got to be First name. First name. Okay So we're gonna. You're pretty sure about that
Well she sounded confident and I
Don't want to go against it
Okay
It's also my first time. That's a good tactic
Yeah, yeah, so we're gonna go
With that's a real name. So you guys are
Locky and real, which is correct
That's his real name. Thank you
He was born to be famous, born to be in a
Boy band, Timberlake.
Very true.
All right, TJ, our turn.
Celebrity number two is Calvin Harris.
What are your thoughts, TJ?
I'm going to, I reckon real.
Do you reckon real?
Like Calvin Harris, not, he's a DJ.
Like you said, he could be like Justin Timberlake born.
He could, yeah.
He could.
But why are you saying that to me, producer Anastasia?
Are you trying to throw me off because you want Kim Crossman to win?
I've thrown you off before.
PJ, he's had a lot of work done in the last however many years.
Do you think the only real thing on the guy now is his name?
It's true.
He looks amazing. I'm not saying he doesn't look great. I'm true. He looks amazing.
I'm not saying he doesn't look great.
I'm going to need a response.
I don't know.
TJ, I say go with me.
I think it's not his real name.
Okay.
All right, I'm locking in.
Not his real name.
You guys are correct.
It was born as Adam Richard Wiles
and he wanted his name to be racially ambiguous when he started out.
There you go.
Need I remind everyone, 50 KFC chicken dollars on the line.
And we're sitting at a point each.
Let's go celebrity number three for Kim and Brianna.
It is, or Brianna, it's Kim Crossman.
Oh, come on.
What do you think?
That's your stage name, isn't it?
I can't answer this, can I?
No, you, I mean, it's your...
I can't.
You can convince her.
You can sway Brianna.
This is awkward.
Can I ask why you think it would be a stage name?
Just out of curiosity.
You think I would choose the initials KFC?
You think I would choose?
Celebrities like to be, you know, different
and like to keep their personal lives private.
It is a nice name.
You've got to admit it.
It is a good actress name.
Oh my gosh.
I feel so honoured that you think I'm like a celebrity.
That's my takeaway from this.
Thank you, Diana.
All right, guys.
I'm going to need you to lock in an answer.
Well, I want to win this chicken money for you,
so I'm going to tell you that it is my birth name.
Oh, there you go then.
Kim Crossman.
That is correct.
That's your real name.
I feel like you didn't have to confirm or deny because she is here.
I got your back, Brianna.
I want you to win that chicken money.
I trust Brianna.
Thank you.
All right, guys.
For you, TJ.
Not if I have anything to do with it, TJ.
Celebrity number four is Demi Moore.
Demi Moore.
TJ, do you know anything about Demi Moore?
No, no.
I feel like, you know, she used to date Bruce Willis.
She's got a few kids with him.
Was in Ghost.
And Ashton Kutcher, right?
Yeah, dated Ashton Kutcher for a long time.
Look, I'm going to...
TJ, my gut says it's not her real name.
What do you think?
I'm going to go the other way.
Oh, no.
Okay.
I'm happy to go with you.
You want to go, it's her real name?
Well, you were right last time, so maybe we...
Would you like to stay with Bree's response?
Yeah, yeah.
All right, all right, guys.
Staying with my response.
What was my...
That it's not real.
Oh, my gosh.
It's not her real name.
Thanks, Kim.
That's right.
Keep this train on the tracks.
Good that one of us is here doing that.
Demi Moore is not her real name.
Yes, TJ!
She was married before when she was 17 to a musician called Freddie Moore,
and she decided to keep his name when they divorced.
Really?
There you go.
We're still in this, TJ.
So that's two per team.
Really surprised, obviously, Kim Crossman that she got it right.
So we're going to go to tie break.
Now, how tie break works is you've got to yell out your team name,
which is either Bree or Kim, and that person gets to answer.
All right, come on, TJ.
You ready?
So the fifth celebrity is Hugh Grant.
Bree!
Oh, no!
And what are we going to say, Brianna?
What do you reckon?
Hugh Grant.
Real name.
Got to be.
Fake, did you say?
No, it's his real name.
It's his real name.
We'll lock it in.
I will go with that.
Congratulations, Kim and Brianna.
You've won your first real or fake celebrity name game.
I'm stoked for Brianna.
I'm devastated for my partner, TJ.
And I mean, I'm also kind of happy for Kim.
She needs a win.
You need a win.
It's nice to know you've got a real name too, Kim.
You're not like a, not out here with a fake name.
I don't think I had the ego or the confidence to try and make up a fake one.
Yeah.
There we go. Kim Cosman's name is real. Brianne Clint. You were saying to me off air earlier today that you're on this mission to make friends with all of your exes, which I mean,
that'll take years. There's so many. She's not wrong. Well, let me clarify not necessarily make friends with make good with
what did you do to them no well no well in some cases yeah i will hurt some people yeah but i've
been hurt too i think that so i have depression and anxiety and a lot of my depression comes from
like things that were in the past or unresolved and And there's this great thing that is, you know,
what you don't deal with will deal with you.
And unless I've made good on things,
whether it was like friendships or relationships,
I do feel like you carry residual yuck.
And Auckland's a very small place.
New Zealand's a small place.
You run into people or people who know each other.
So I kind of have made it a little bit of an intentional mission
to where a bridge was broken to at least reach out,
fall on my sword if there's an apology owed,
but try and mend it.
Yeah, see, that's where I'm lucky.
I feel no guilt.
I'm just kidding.
I'm joking.
Christmas.
I feel no guilt whatsoever.
I can just, you know, do whatever I want.
No, I totally get what you're saying.
And it's not nice having bad blood per se or like a bad taste in your mouth.
Or uncertainty, like not knowing where you stand with someone.
And my mum's friends was literally everybody on Facebook that I know.
Does she still talk to all of your exes?
Oh, yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Who's her favourite?
Oh, that's interesting.
Someone called Hamish Wright and he lives in Christchurch.
And he's recently had another child. And mum's, oh, you've got to see this. Yeah, that's interesting. Someone called Hamish Wright and he lives in Christchurch and he's recently
had another child and mum's like, oh, you've
got to see this. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
She's friends with all of them.
Which I appreciate. Tell us your
list of people.
How much time do we have?
Tell us
every single person that you've ever dated.
No, tell us the people.
Is this what we're going to do?
I mean, I could go through.
I guess here's what I say.
I want names, Kimberly Crossman.
Here's what I will say,
is that some of these experiences have been really positive.
Some of them have been really confusing because you...
Because you were still in love with them.
Well, no, but you have a rhythm that you form.
Once you kind of get past the pleasantries,
it is some of them have been a little confusing because you're like,
you then can romanticise about like, oh, that's why we went out,
that we got along.
Is there anyone you met up with that you thought,
what was I thinking?
That you didn't feel any of those feelings for anymore?
Or no?
No, I think it was more what happened more often was probably like, okay, so we could be internet friends, but that's cool.
We've had that conversation.
But that's about it.
That's where it kind of finishes.
I think so.
Or so I guess in a way it was what was I thinking?
But yeah, some of them I was like, wow, these people are awesome.
Like it actually made me like re-look at that chapter.
But then there have been there is
one i picked well back in the day or like what chaos train was i on like yeah i dated a tagger
for a while we used to a tagger yeah yeah what like a graffiti yeah yeah well we used to walk
the tracks so it would be like you walk the train tracks and do art was this when you were in your
eight mile kind of stage it was actually, actually. Oh, okay, nice.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So it has backfired a little bit in some cases,
and then in some cases it's made it more confusing.
But majority, honestly, I would advise this to people.
How many percent are we talking?
I would say 80% it's been really positive,
and it's nice to reconnect because, you know,
if you date someone for a while, you know their families and things.
And you care a lot about people, and then all of a sudden you just cut them
out of your life yeah and sometimes you need to do that because it's just not good for you but
other times it's kind of like you spend a lot of time with these people yeah and it's really nice
to reconnect in that way and and find where you are in now in life and be happy for them um there
is one on the there's only one on the list that i haven't i'm not outing anyone
there's one on the list that i will not call and will not mend the bridge because not yeah why not
because i had tried it was the first person i tried to do this with and uh we got in a huge
argument yeah and this is like five years later and it was just as if it was yesterday.
So, I don't know, maybe some people who are listening
are like, yeah, there's that one person
that you know it's not going to be good.
Well, I'm interested to know from other people.
0800 dials at M.
Have you done this?
Or is this something you've always done in your life?
Are you friends with all of your exes?
Or maybe you're friends with none of them. And
what are the reasons why? 0800 dials
at M or you can text us
on 9696.
Why are you friends with the exes?
We're talking friends with the ex.
Are you friends with
all your exes? Do you not talk
to them? Because you're on a journey.
That's a complete sentence. That is a complete sentence to them? Because you're on a journey. That's a complete sentence.
That is a complete sentence.
Julia Roberts went on a journey.
Eat, pray, love.
You're on a similar one.
To make friends with all of your exes from the past.
Yeah.
The ghosts of boyfriends past.
Yeah, make good.
Make good.
I would say make good.
How many have you gotten through so far?
I hate that you're putting numbers on this. I'll do percentages. I would say make good. How many have you gotten through so far? I hate that you're putting numbers on this.
I'll do percentages.
I would say.
No, we'd like solid numbers, please, on this show.
I would say 90%.
We're good across the line and a really good place.
And a few not so good.
5% we're okay.
And then another 5% of yet to have the discussion.
That's pretty good.
Yeah.
I think that's really good.
And honestly, I feel much better as a human.
Well, there you go.
0800 dials it and we've asked you guys,
are you friends with your exes or maybe you're not?
Jake, what about you?
Yeah, I'm friends with all my exes.
Well, why do you say it so seductively, Jake? Is there a friends with benefits situation?
Nah, they were people that I loved and so why not keep them in your life?
Jake, stop.
Did you have to wait a period of time to get to that place
or were you pretty committed to that from?
Depended on the person really,
but most of the time, yeah, you have to wait a little bit.
Jake, what I'm interested in,
have you dated other people since obviously are you dating someone right now for example no not at the moment
what's it been like when you have dated other people and they find out your besties with your
exes yeah actually some people don't like it at all but like you they need to get over it. I'm shocked. Yeah. Well, I agree with you. I feel like if it
ended, it ended for a reason. Exactly. Yeah. But it depends
who ended it, right? Yes. Yeah, interesting, Jake. Thanks for
calling through. What about you, Sophie? Are you friends with the exes?
Oh, hey guys. How's it going? Good. How are you? Yeah, I'm so good.
Thank you. Personally, I'm so good, thank you.
Personally, I am not.
I don't really think I've had, I would say I do now, being more older in my age,
the most, you know, best choices of men that I've dated.
I like how you're being very delicate, Sophie.
That's very nice of you.
Personally, for me, I am not because it just came down to how were we in the relationship and did they treat me like a friend and did I treat, you know, because there's always
two sides to the story.
And so I personally am not, just down to just not maybe picking the right people to be even
friends with.
But I do have a partner and I know that they're friends with their exes and I think it's not
black and white.
It's like case by case.
So it's, you know, is it a mutual mature friendship?
I'm pretty secure in myself now that I respect that friendship and I think if they can keep
it at that level, then that's great.
And like that last caller just said, you know, he loved his exes and now they can maintain
that.
I think that it's just each case is different.
It's not so black and white.
And if one of your exes has a jet ski, you want to keep those people around.
Exactly.
Thanks, Sophie. Appreciate that.
You're welcome. Have a good afternoon, guys. See you later.
See you, Sophie. Let's finish off with
Sharon. Tell us,
friends with the ex or no?
Yes, definitely. Yes, my husband
and I are both friends with our exes.
In fact, we had
two of his ex-girlfriends at our wedding.
Did you?
Were they your friends with them?
Yeah.
Were they at your bridal party, Shari?
No, no, not that close.
You want to keep them at a distance.
She's got a line.
Keep them at the distance.
That's so interesting.
Were any of your exes at the wedding or just his?
No, no. Oh. No, but I'm friends with them. Right, okay. And you guys
obviously are comfortable in your relationship that, you know, to have the
exes at the wedding. That's right. Yeah.
And I think because of the way my husband and I are,
our sons are actually the same.
They are friends with their exes.
I thought you were going to say that they were dating some of your guys' exes.
I was like, this is getting too far, Sharon.
Too far.
No.
Thanks for calling through, Shaz.
We appreciate it.
Thank you.
Bree and Clint.
And it's time for Birthday Banger.
Okay.
It's my birthday.
It's my birthday. Bree's time for Birthday Banger. It's my birthday. It's my birthday.
Brie and Clint's Birthday Banger.
Nearly forgot the name of the segment.
I know.
We were gazing in each other's eyes.
We were.
It was distracting.
You're so attractive.
So are you.
Thank you.
All right, this is where we take your guys' birthdays
and we figure out what was number one on your 16th
and then we'll play the best one in full.
So this is where you and I have to, you know, agree on something.
We have to, you know, pick something together.
An impossible challenge.
Yeah, because we are so different.
All right, let's kick it off with Tash.
Hello, Tash.
Hi, how are you?
Good, mate.
How are you?
Yeah, good.
That's good.
Let's do your birthday banger.
What's your birthday?
It's the 3rd of December, 89.
All right.
You were 16 in 2005 on the 3rd of December.
And in the mid-2000s, this had a number one hit.
I ain't singing, she a gold digger.
But she ain't messing with no broke, broke.
But I ain't singing, she a gold digger.
But a Kanye West.
What are your thoughts on that, Tash?
That is a banger if ever I heard one.
Hard to deny.
Yeah, yeah, that's a good tune.
Do you remember where you were in 2005, Kimberley?
Yeah, I do, actually.
I was on Shortland Street contemplating finding a rich husband
because it seems like that's what you do with gold diggers.
You've lived a weird life.
Haven't I?
Where's Shortland Street in New Zealand?
Anyway, Tash, good one from you to start it off.
Let's go to Debbie.
G'day, Deb.
Hi.
How are you, mate?
Great, thanks.
Yourself?
Oh, not too bad, Debbie.
You know, just kicking on.
It's a Monday.
We'll get through.
No, it's good.
What's your birthday, Debbie?
1st of October, 1975.
All right.
You were 16 in 1991 on the 1st of October.
And, Debbie, here's your birthday banger.
Yes.
What a gem.
Bit of Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch.
Sounds like you know it, Deb.
Oh, I do.
Give me Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch any time.
Oh, yeah, I reckon.

I love it.
Hey, Debbie, I'd stick around.
That's a pretty good one.
Let's finish it off with Vicky.
G'day, Vicky.
Hi, how is it?
Good, mate.
How's it going for you?
I'm having a pretty good day, thank you.
That's good.
Not too bad for a Monday, Vicky.
Are you finishing it off with a vino?
Well, I'm not home yet.
I'm on my way home from work, so you never know.
Best not to drink and drive in the car then, you know?
No, true, true.
Wait till you get home.
Yeah.
Vicky, what's your birthday?
Well, this will be an interesting one for you, Bree.
It's the 30th of June, 1966.
Oh, these are the ones I love, Vicky.
You were 16 in 1982.
What a year.
Oh, my God.
On the 30th of June in the 80s.
Come on, bring us something good.
Here's your birthday, Bree.
Wait, hold on.
Oh, yeah. Oh, hope not. Oh, yeah.
Oh, Vicky.
Oh, that's a pretty good one.
You haven't disappointed us.
No, I definitely haven't.
And also, for anyone who loved the movie featuring Britney Spears,
Crossroads.
Yep.
Great film.
This will be a good one.
Yeah, it's a pretty good one, all right.
Hey, Vicky, I love your birthday banger.
Give me Joan Jett any time.
Thanks for calling through.
Now we have to vote.
You and I?
Yes.
We decide, because it's our show this week,
what we would like played in full.
It's a big decision.
Don't take it lightly.
The people get quite passionate about this.
Oh, my gosh.
This is so stressful.
What is your gut saying?
Keep in mind we play a lot of Top 40, you know, Justin Bieber's and the...
Okay, so what Brie's doing here is manipulating me into a decision.
I see right through it.
Brie wants good vibrations, yet I feel...
Wait, what makes you think that?
Have you got some sort of...
Because you jumped up at the sound of it and started singing along to it.
So I'm sitting here as a friend going, do I offer her this or do I make this about me?
Well, look here, if you want to come back to do the show tomorrow...
All right, here we go.
We're going to be playing.

Some running vibrations, even.
Yeah, right?
Hopefully that was a bit of a pick-me-up for your Monday.
Did they have any other songs, Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch?
Oh, did we make the wrong decision?
Uh, no, no regrets.
I feel confident that we had a good time.
I mean, yeah, we had fun and that's the main thing.
Actually, actually it isn't.
It's not. It's to make everyone else
listening happy.
Clint away. Kim Crossman giving me
a hand for the rest of the week and
apparently, I didn't know
this about you, but you've started up your
own personal life coaching business.
Which is great.
Good to see you're moving into new areas.
Yeah, and on brand as most
life coaches are. The people who don't have their life together, get advice from them.
It's great.
No, but you said to me earlier today you were like,
oh, one of my most hated things and you would go to all the glitz
and glammy events, you know, being an uptroth,
and you said I hate making small talk with people.
Yeah, it's a bit yuck.
You know, you go to your usuals, the weather.
Oh, do you ask about the weather?
No, but you do. Generic weather
chat. Oh, I know.
So I have five questions that
are usually quite good. Sometimes it's a bit much
if you just come at someone with this straight off the bat.
But how much do you earn?
Is that not good?
Is that a no? Who did you vote for in the
2020 election? Are you more Labour or are you that a no? Who did you vote for in the 2020 election?
Are you more Labour or are you more Liberal?
Like what side are you sitting on?
No, not those kind of questions.
These are actually really good questions,
especially if you've been in like a long relationship or marriage
or even with your family.
It's nice to know what people say.
So I'm going to ask you the five questions.
Okay, should we set the scene?
Like are we at a mixer, like a cocktail party or something?
Sure.
We'll use our acting.
Using our, well, you're not paying me for my acting, but I'll give it to you for free.
So that's all right.
Get ready for some world-class acting, everybody.
We've got some ambiance in the background.
We're at a party.
Okay.
I've got my drink here.
Oh, we're so hydrated.
Okay.
So the first question, and you guys can put these in your back pocket.
Would you rather watch Waves or Flames?
I'm sorry, I just met you.
What was your name?
Hi, my name is Kim Crossman.
You may recognise me from the telly.
Yes, I have seen you on the telly.
You're on that Seven Sharp show, aren't you?
No?
Burn. How are you? What's happening? Yeah, no, on the telly. You're on that Seven Sharp show, aren't you? No? Burn.
How are you?
What's happening?
Yeah, no, really good, thanks.
Look, I'm just really not enjoying this.
I'd love to dive a little deeper.
Oh, have you seen the weather outside?
Speaking of weather and the elements, let me segue.
Would you rather watch Waves or Flames?
Hmm, Waves or Flames. the elements let me segue would you rather watch waves or flames waves or flames i feel like waves because it's more calming what about you what a weird question to ask someone
well it tells me a lot about you that you're attracted to you know things that are relaxing
and calm whereas probably the total opposite to me yeah well that's what is the interesting answer
i don't think you answered that honestly but we'll move on to question number two what is your what that are relaxing and calm, whereas I... Probably the total opposite to me. Yeah, well, that's what... It's an interesting answer.
I don't think you answered that honestly,
but we'll move on to question number two.
What is your favourite compliment to receive?
I love being told I've got great boobs.
Do you?
That is your favourite? No, I was just making it up.
I'm playing a character.
Yeah, but I want to get to know you better, Bree.
Okay.
Let the listeners in.
Stop putting these walls up.
This is quite confronting now that we're here.
I do
like to be told
maybe compliments something
I've done. Maybe some work
that I've done. Okay. Yeah.
So validation of your employment. That's good.
If they haven't seen it, then lie
and say they have.
This is good for us to know about you.
Okay, number three.
What is the best movie that you never want to see again?
Ooh.
That's a great question.
I don't think I can say the name of it on air.
Okay.
Just because I don't remember what the name is.
Well, my one is Milo and Otis, a great film,
but also something you never need to see again.
Marley and Me, then.
Great film, makes me cry, probably don't want to watch it again.
Fair enough.
What does your brain look like?
Question four.
Have you ever seen a pea?
I'm going to dig deeper into this one very quickly.
What I mean is if your brain was a scene, what would it look like?
So mine is like a haunted house or a house, say.
Some rooms are so put together, you're like, this is design and feng shui.
Other rooms may be locked, don't go in them.
Other rooms, very cluttery.
So that would be what my brain looks like.
Okay.
What would my brain look like?
Probably, have you ever been to a circus?
Yeah.
You know where there's some people, like,
you don't know if they're going to fall to their death or, you know, get attacked by the animals that are being kept there against their will.
Smells interesting.
Smells weird.
And sometimes has an audience where they just leave you to your chaos.
Fantastic.
I love that for you and your brain.
And then lastly, a drink or a food that you will never eat again
or drink again and why?
Eggplant.
I hate it.
And take that answer for what you will.
There you go. Five fun for what you will. There you go.
Five fun questions for you all.
The eggplant emoji. Never using it
again.
Something that I
found quite interesting. Are you up with the
TikTokers? Are you up with the tics
and the tocs? I'm cool.
I know what it's about. You actually are cool.
No, I'm not cool.
But I feel like anything that's really worth, you know,
getting my fingers on ends up making its way to other platforms.
So I catch on.
Got it.
Well, there's something that I saw on TikTok recently
and I found quite interesting.
And it was a guy talking about how apparently you can't physically
swallow more than two or three times back to back so take a listen this is him talking about it you
can only swallow two to three times before your body forces you to stop go on try it let me know
how many times you can do it so I was like okay and apparently uh it's true i tried it your body physically
won't let you and it's something to do with this flap in your in your esophagus or something which
is actually the medical term for it yeah it is this flap is okay that's quite interesting so i
haven't tried that but i know that i will probably have trouble because I swallow in two stages, which is something.
What do you mean by that?
I can't swallow in one go.
So if I put food or water or anything in my mouth,
it has to have a pause once it's in the mouth,
lips closed, pause, hold, waiting pattern,
and then continue the swallow it's a two stage so
i'm not good at shots or funnels or yeah there'd be a lot of things yeah yeah how have you lived
how have you gotten through life here in new zealand i have quite a good gag reel actually
like anytime i have tried to do that it's uh not ideal uh yes i can his website if you want to
have a look at that.
We thought we would test this out this afternoon.
Do we have a bit of game show music, producer Ben?
Yeah, I can definitely find some.
If you can search around for that.
Producer Anastasia, if you could bring in the props for
Show Me How You Swallow.
It's a new radio game.
Each of us will have a cup of water.
And all we have to do is finish it the fastest. It's a new radio game. Each of us will have a cup of water.
Okay.
And all we have to do is finish it the fastest.
All right?
Yep.
It's a pretty simple game.
Yeah.
Well, you'd think it would be, wouldn't it?
Sounds pretty simple.
You'd think it'd be slightly evenly matched, yet, you know.
Producer Ben, do you want to count us down?
Yeah, I can do that.
Yep.
Water on the table. Water on the table?
Water on the table.
Oh, I got sweaty palms. I got as if I'm going to be a possible competitor.
Okay.
That's right.
There's a lot on the line for this.
Let me move the laptop away from the splash.
Good idea.
Okay.
All right.
And I will try.
Five, four, three, two, one, go.
Oh, I think you got mine, which is straight vodka.
Oh, my God, I'm so sorry.
Oh, my God, I'm so sorry.
She has made an absolute mess.
Oh, my gosh, my skin is on fire.
She's just projectile shot vodka across the studio.
Vodka is the one alcohol of choice I also can't do.
Well, you know what they say, Producer Ben.
Karma's a bitch.
And we just had karma swayed upon us.
There you go.
It's all over my work laptop, by the way.
I'm so, well, I'm sorry.
And my phone.
At least if you get.
And my white dress.
Yeah, that didn't go according to plan.
We'll be back right after we clean this up.
