Starting point is 00:00:00 The ZM Podcast Network Hello everybody, welcome to the Brianne Clint Podcast and welcome to a Brianne Clint Podcast referendum, everybody. A referendum? A re-forendum or a referendum? No, the referendum was for weed. Don't mind a re-forendum. Well, I guess this kind of could be a reeferendum. We're all doing brownies on the podcast intro.
Starting point is 00:00:29 No. The creature in question hangs out at reefs. It's a referendum on the podcast dolphin. So while you're away, Bree. Get rid of it. Well, reserve your judgment, please. I've been saying get rid of it for ages And I'm so glad when I saw this coming up in the podcast group I was like, yes, get rid of it
Starting point is 00:00:51 So I think everything should always be up for review If it's not working And I just got this funny feeling Matty said it to us actually He said, why do you do the dolphin? And none of us, we realised none of us could pinpoint Why the dolphin was there it was the awkward outros it was yeah well we had some historians podcast historians go through
Starting point is 00:01:11 old podcasts and pinpoint that thank you anastasia um the well she's really jumped the gun well clint is actually in a professional referendum environment you've you actually presented that information correctly. Someone went and found the earliest sighting of the dolphin. It was the first Brian Clint podcast of 2021. That's when the dolphin first appeared. And it was to replace the awkward outros. Nah, I say bring back the awkward outros.
Starting point is 00:01:40 They're my favourite. Well, those are two different referendums, okay? Nah, bring them back. There are two referendums. Nah, see back The second one You don't have a choice of You just automatically do the awkward outro The first referendum is keep the dolphin or not
Starting point is 00:01:53 The second referendum is Do we replace the dolphin or not I think it's important we focus on one now Just one Get rid of it I've been saying it for years So everybody will get their chance to have a say. Yep.
Starting point is 00:02:07 But when you say why you want what you want, you need to say why you want what you want. Okay. And you are the most impassioned, so you can go first. I think we should get rid of the dolphin noise at the end of the podcast intros because the best thing is when we don't have it because Clint does the awkward outros, and they are my favourite, and that is why,
Starting point is 00:02:31 and the main reason why, but also it's kind of ear-piercing and annoying. It is shrill, I'll give you that. Quite shrill. Okay, you've said your piece? Yes, that's my piece. Thank you, Brie. Oh, jeez.
Starting point is 00:02:44 You didn't have to slap me in the face. Next up in the dolphin referendum, producer Anastasia. Yeah, I would like to agree with Brie's points made. I don't like the dolphin at the end of the podcast. I never have. Bring back the awkward outros. Yes. Are you reading this off a screen?
Starting point is 00:03:08 Maybe even if we're getting rid of the dolphin, get rid of the guy who presses the button. Okay. That's enough from you. You've said your piece. It's not a referendum on me. This is not a referendum on me. Oh, is that not what we're doing?
Starting point is 00:03:22 Sorry, did that just get personal? I'd like to go next before it's a fait accompli. So sorry to get ahead of you here, Ben. Look, I'm on the fence and I'll tell you why I'm on the fence. Because you're always on the fence. Your bum has permanently got fence marks in it for being on the fence. No, I'm decisive. You're Mr. On the Fence Guy.
Starting point is 00:03:40 I'm decisive, okay? No, you're not. Watch this. Stop it! See? To my reasons why I would, and I'm not saying this is my vote My reason why I would vote to keep the dolphin Is twofold
Starting point is 00:03:53 One, Anastasia put all that work Into putting the dolphin on the Image at the top of our podcast group That's fine, it can stay there as a memory Right, so if the dolphin goes it doesn't have to go from there She's pretty keen for a refresh of that too. I'm keen for a refresh. That's a different referendum. It's going to be a busy week
Starting point is 00:04:09 of referendums. The other reason is personal and that's that it makes me look better having that as a way to end the podcast. No, I think, no, I will disagree with you. I think having the awkward outro makes you more relatable and
Starting point is 00:04:25 humanised. Good point. This is my testimony. Whereas the dolphin is kind of like wacky radio stuff, you know? And that's probably my biggest point is why we should get rid of it. You've made your points
Starting point is 00:04:42 and you were given as much time as you wanted. I think you've got to work on that What is that? It's meant to be a judge's hammer It sounds like a gunshot Hello Anastasia Is that one better?
Starting point is 00:04:56 Anastasia open the door Someone's knocking at the door That one's better With that said I also would like the dolphin to go. Oh! Big news! I don't necessarily know why I feel like that.
Starting point is 00:05:16 It's just a feeling inside me that says... Because you're sick of doing zany radio on the podcast. Our friend the dolphin has to go. So I've said my piece. I'd like to hear what Ben has to say. What were you going to vote for? I was going to vote for get rid of the dolphin. Poor dolphin.
Starting point is 00:05:33 But I had a reason to keep it. The reason to keep it was I've memorized the waveform that it makes so I can easily get into the podcast when I edit it. Oh, it's like an audio signature for you. Oh, so that's actually an actual decent point. So what if I ended the podcast each day by making a dolphin noise with my mouth? That would be fine.
Starting point is 00:05:51 That would be an awkward outro. Yeah, it would be. Also, we can get a better dolphin sound. No, that's not the question. But I'm just saying if we're getting rid of it, then get rid of it. It's not a good enough dolphin sound. Okay, thank you, Ben.
Starting point is 00:06:08 There we go. Well, it's a unanimous vote. I did not think it was going to go that way. Can I just say I tried to do this months ago. I tried. Yeah, well, trials take time. Yeah. Oh, thank you.
Starting point is 00:06:23 You weren't even here. Well, now. No, I did it, thank you. You weren't even here. Well, now. No, I did it before I left. It was like last year. Now it's time for the Dolphins' eulogy. Would anybody like to say a few words? I just want to say the main part Clint will miss of the Dolphin is the blowhole.
Starting point is 00:06:43 Disgusting. Disgusting. Disgusting. I'm glad the dolphin is no longer locked up in the sound audio by it. It's free. It's free now. It's not dead, it's free. It's free. Can I say some words in its native tongue?
Starting point is 00:06:56 Yes, please. Sounds like a dog. Before you say any words, can you step off that puppy, please? Can you take my blowhole joke out of the podcast intro? No. Hang on. No, no, no. The blowhole is staying.
Starting point is 00:07:13 How does it sound again? Are you worried some dolphins are going to be offended by that joke? I'm worried I'm going to get a letter from the head of the dolphins. Okay, if you guys are taking this seriously, I will. Oh, dolphin. I took it will. Oh, Dolphin. I took it seriously. Oh, Dolphin. I can't take this fucking seriously.
Starting point is 00:07:28 We barely knew ye. Wow. I loved you. I thought we were moving away from zany. Especially that blowhole of yours. End it. Play the sound. He doesn't know what to do.
Starting point is 00:07:42 I know. Everyone just leaves. I will miss you every day. Everyone just leave, Clint. And when I look to the ocean, I will think of you. Wrap this up. Especially when I see a dolphin. And when I do see a dolphin,
Starting point is 00:07:58 I'll look in its eyes. And I'll know you're there. Swim well, my friend. And for the last time. We voted to get rid of this thing. He deserved one more splash. He had to swim away like Vince did. He had to swim away.
Starting point is 00:08:21 Enjoy the stupid podcast, everybody. Yep, doesn't get more awkward than that My time is up 3, 2, 1 It's Brie and Clint Good everybody welcome to the show It's Brie and Clint We on baby.
Starting point is 00:08:54 Don't know why this felt topical today, it just felt like the right song to open with, you know. Has he been up to anything recently? He got one little fight and his mum got scared and said, you're moving with your auntie and uncle in Bel-Air. Oh wee joke, but it's not funny, is it? It's not funny, is it? No. It's serious. It's quite serious.
Starting point is 00:09:09 It's serious. We're going to pick over the carcass of the Will Smith-Chris Rock fiasco. Dean McCarthy's on the show with us before four o'clock. Will Smith has apologised, so we'll get the latest on that. That will be very interesting. Quite a long apology from Will Smith. Yeah, it's decent. Which I mean, probably fair enough.

Starting point is 00:14:29 And then one of the team here at the Bree and Clint show made a statement, Clint, that rocked me to my core. I was here for this and as a fellow elder millennial, I was stopped dead in my tracks. We were both shocked.
Starting point is 00:14:45 We, you know, we were just disappointed. I think so. So it's time for a round of unpopular opinions. We were like Will Smith at the Oscars yesterday. We were so offended. We were shaking our heads. We're lucky we didn't slap this person. And that's why we do this segment, Unpopular Opinions.
Starting point is 00:15:02 And this one, I think, is smack bang right on the money. Produce Anastasia. We were discussing the movie franchise Bring It On yesterday. Yeah, a great franchise. I think we've got a clip of the original and the best movie, the first one with Kirsten Dunst. We all remember this film. Mm-hmm.
Starting point is 00:15:21 I'm sexy. I'm cute. I'm popular to boot. I'm bitchin'. I mean, it's just iconic. I'm sexy. I'm cute. I'm popular to boot. I'm bitchin'. I mean, it's just iconic. Iconic. Iconic. It was a huge moment in time.
Starting point is 00:15:31 Bring it on. You know? Huge. The first, the original, the best. Massive. But Anastasia. It's cold in here. I said there must be some Toros in the atmosphere.
Starting point is 00:15:41 So quotable. Producer Anastasia, what was the thing you said yesterday? Bring it on number three, the Hayden Panettiere one with Rihanna is the best bring it on. You're saying that the original bring it on with Kirsten Dunst isn't the best one? It's not even the second best. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:16:01 Look. Boo. Shame. Boo. I. Boo. Boo. I don't know what you're talking about. You guys, it's such a moment. She moves to a different school.
Starting point is 00:16:13 She has to compete her own school. Rihanna's in it. It's not even the original cast. Anastasia, in the first one, there's a team that is creating all of these chairs when they find out that their head cheerleader has been stealing them from another team and then they meet at the cheerleading finals. Clint, your point about a different cast,
Starting point is 00:16:35 that's another reason why it's better. No, it's not. Oh, my God. Hayden Fettucere is better than Kirsten Dunst. No, I'm sorry. It's like saying Grease 2 is better than Grease 1. That's exactly what I was like. That's basically what you're saying.
Starting point is 00:16:47 There are many movies that the sequels don't compare. Home Alone 3 is better than Home Alone 1 and 2. That's just simply not true. I'm saying this is the exception. It's an unpopular opinion because this is an exception. Well done. You're correct. It's an unpopular opinion.
Starting point is 00:17:02 It definitely is. I thought you had a grip on reality. Even number two might be better than number one. What are you talking about? We thought off the back of that and how far it's triggered us, movies evoke passion. So we should do an unpopular opinion movies edition this afternoon. Yeah, this is where you're allowed to say, you know,
Starting point is 00:17:23 something that might be quite shocking to a lot of people. It's a board season as well. Movies are the hot topic. Yes. So, Brie, do you have an unpopular movie opinion? Mate, I am so keen to say this one and I fully stand by it. Power of the Dog? Is that what it's called? Yeah, you're going to say unpopular opinion. Unpopular opinion, but
Starting point is 00:17:39 Power of the Dog, the movie that has just been nominated for a bunch of films and won a bunch of stuff at the Oscars, is one of the worst, biggest pieces of crap I've ever watched. Oh, boo. Boo. She's a Kiwi. Boo.
Starting point is 00:17:55 She's a Kiwi. I'm sure. I'm sure. Boo, get out, boo. She has done some amazing work, but that movie was not it. Not all amazing. Did you see her speech with the Williams sisters? Including that that movie was not it. Not all amazing. Did you see her speech with the Williams sisters? Including that.
Starting point is 00:18:07 That was not it. Not good. Ben, you got an unpopular movie opinion? No, I've got one, mate. I've got one for you. Okay. Hit us with it. And I know you're going to get angry about this
Starting point is 00:18:15 because we did a whole thing about this movie. It's kind of part of our... I feel like the guy who's never seen any movies shouldn't be having an input, but we'll listen. The best, and I know you're going to Anastasia me for this one, the best Back to the Future movie is the train one. No, unpopular opinion. Unpopular opinion, the best Back to the Future movie is the train one.
Starting point is 00:18:34 Get in the bin. In the bin. I liked it. It had a different angle. Have you even seen the others? I've seen the first one and the train one. Oh, my God. So you Have you even seen the others? I've seen the first one and the train one. Oh, my God. So you haven't even seen them all.
Starting point is 00:18:48 I like the train one because it was like Back to the Future meets Wild Wild West. That's what I liked about it. It is not. Producer Ben, he loves all films. He doesn't have... Yeah, I couldn't think of an unpopular film opinion. It's okay, mate. We're going to put it out to the people this afternoon.
Starting point is 00:19:04 Do you have an unpopular film opinion. It's okay, mate. We're going to put it out to the people this afternoon. Do you have an unpopular movie opinion? Do you think maybe your movie taste is better than everybody else because the opinion you have on a certain film, nobody agrees with? Yeah, it's unpopular and you're willing to stand by it this afternoon. While we're here, Birdman, horrible movie. Oh, what an award. I don't care
Starting point is 00:19:25 it's got Michael Keaton in it just because if you've got a turd and you slap a badge on it doesn't mean it's not a turd
Starting point is 00:19:30 maybe you love a movie everyone hates maybe you hate a movie everyone loves text them through to 9696
Starting point is 00:19:37 or call us now 0800 dial ZM free and clint prepare to be aggravated by the opinions you're about to hear on this show. They're not popular.
Starting point is 00:19:47 They're unpopular. And you've got to remember that when you hear one, when you go, how could someone say that? They're doing it for a reason because they know it's going to get a reaction. But they genuinely believe these things. It's like I Stand By What I Said, Power of the Dog, one of the worst films I've seen in 10 years, I think. Oh, you can't say that. A lot of people are agreeing with me on the text machine.
Starting point is 00:20:10 Don't waste your time in Benedict Cumberbatch. You should be ashamed of yourself. I haven't actually seen it, but I've heard it's very long. He's a great actor, but the movie wasn't for me. You should be ashamed of yourself. It wasn't for me. Let's get some of these unpopular opinions on the movie edition. Holly's here.
Starting point is 00:20:26 Hi, Holly. Hi, Holly. Hi. So you've got to say unpopular opinion, but, and then you can say whatever you want. All right, so unpopular opinion, opinion, but Star Wars absolutely sucks. Oh.
Starting point is 00:20:42 Oh, you can't say that. It's got Tim Woodham Morrison in it. He's a Kiwi. I hate the Force not being with you. That's cool, but I mean, the only good thing about Star Wars is Jar Jar Binks. Whoa, you're going to make some Star Wars fans angry. I wish I'd seen it so I could comment.
Starting point is 00:20:59 Star Wars people hate Jar Jar Binks. Yeah, I'm going to absolutely hop in front of my mum. She's a huge fan. Do you have a partner who has forced you to watch Star Wars? Is Jar Jar Binks. Yeah, no. I'm going to have some copper from my mum. She's a huge fan. Do you have a partner who has forced you to watch Star Wars? Is that the issue? No, no, my mother. Oh, your mum made you watch it? My mum.
Starting point is 00:21:14 I'm going to have some copper when I get home. Yeah, right. She listens and she'll know this is me. Well, you've connected with Bree, so you've got that. You've got my support. Someone's texted and said, unpopular opinion, but Titanic is the worst movie of all time.
Starting point is 00:21:28 What? What? What are you watching? What about unpopular opinion, but Grease, the movie, I hate it. Too cringe to watch and the characters are too old to be in high school. Actually, that one's kind of accurate. Some of the people in there
Starting point is 00:21:44 who are meant to be high school students Yeah, it's like that I agree with. They're like late 30s. They're like in their mid 40s. Some of them are balding. And they've probably got a job outside How old was Rizzo? You know, but when I was watching it as a kid, I didn't pick up
Starting point is 00:21:59 on that and it's got a great soundtrack. Ben's caught up with his unpopular opinion. G'day Ben. Hi Ben. Yeah, g'day guys. Lay it on us mate. You can say unpopular opinion and then whatever you want. So, unpopular opinion will definitely upset multiple
Starting point is 00:22:15 fan bases but Harry Potter is basically a rewritten version of Star Wars. You've got an orphan child that has been dropped to his aunt and uncle to be raised by them. Some old guy comes and picks them up, teaches them the ways of the Force, which is Harry
Starting point is 00:22:31 learning at school, and then you get this older guy, Dumbledore slash Yoda, he teaches them a bit more, and then they're just trying to fight the bad guys using the magic for the bad in Voldemort slash Vader. Oh! Oh, Ben! That's a very astute observation, but oh, come on, man.
Starting point is 00:22:50 That's blowing my mind. Too many similarities there. And I mean, I'm a Harry Potter fan and I was just ruining it for you. Yeah, right. I had it ruined for me, you know. And who's Hagrid? Is that Princess Leia? Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:04 I think that's Obi-Wan Kenobi, maybe. And who's the Jar Jar Binks? Is that Dobby? Yeah, yeah. Another weird-looking thing with massive ears. So, yeah, honestly, if you sit there and think about it for more than two minutes, you'll probably have it ruined like I did. Wow, that's interesting.
Starting point is 00:23:18 That's blown my mind. Thank you, Ben. What about the one that someone says, unpopular opinion, but the first high school musical movie is the worst one out of all of them? That's the good one. I haven't seen high school musical, but... I've only seen the first one. Someone's texted and said, Bree, how can you hate Power of the Dog?
Starting point is 00:23:37 It's got Channing Tatum in it. No, that's Dog. That's the new Channing Tatum movie, Dog. Different movies. Different film. Channing Tatum was definitely not in Power of the Dog. That would have been a very, very different movie. Yeah, it would have been.
Starting point is 00:23:49 He looked at the script and went, no way. Something I feel like we should be talking about is Tesla drivers. Oh, yeah. What do they deserve talking about? Oh, because they don't have to pay gas prices at the moment. They're very topical. Every time I see a Tesla driver at the lights, I'm like, you smug prick.
Starting point is 00:24:07 I saw this Tesla driver driving past my local petrol station just giving the finger to people. He's on his way. And I was like, all right, mate. And we're only upset because we're jealous. Yeah, very jealous. Very jealous. I mean, there's never been a time to be more jealous of Tesla drivers
Starting point is 00:24:22 or has there? Because I don't know if you know this, but Tesla drivers have been banned from something recently. The gas station? They're like, don't you come in here to buy your bread and ciggies? Don't bring that car around here. We're all jealous. You don't need us for nothing.
Starting point is 00:24:39 Apparently, Tesla is recalling nearly 579,000 vehicles in the United States as a result of the government agency's findings saying that there's some stuff on the car, there's a few bits and pieces that aren't legal. Like what? So they're saying there's a few things that are in violation, which I don't know what the others are. I just want to focus on this one main thing.
Starting point is 00:25:06 Sure. I want to talk about the Tesla boom box. Okay. Which apparently on all Teslas, and this was like an update, a software update that they did in 2020, where there's a speaker on the outside of the vehicle. Do you remember we talked about this,
Starting point is 00:25:22 where you can put different sounds in there? You can make the horn whatever you want. Yeah. One of the features when they did the update was that your car could make fart noises. And we've got a clip of a real Tesla.
Starting point is 00:25:38 This is a real Tesla and someone testing out this feature. Fart on turn signal. Fart on demand. Well yes, we have quite a fine selection of some very nice farts. We have not a fart. We have short shorts ripper. We have ludicrous farts. We have nervous stink.
Starting point is 00:26:00 Wow, that's quite the range of farts. Quite the selection. But apparently they're saying very distracting to pedestrians and other vehicles. So they're taking the farts away. Oh, fun police. I know. Surely though with a Tesla you can hack it and you can upload whatever you want. Like I imagine if you owned a Tesla,
Starting point is 00:26:20 you wouldn't be satisfied with any of the off-the-shelf farts. I don't want generic, the ones that everyone else gets. You want to upload your own file. Yeah. Right? And that's why I can imagine you, once you get it, standing on the driver's seat, putting your bum up to the rear-vision mirror where you think the Bluetooth microphone is, and then you're like, am I in position?
Starting point is 00:26:42 Am I in position? All right, are you ready? Are you ready? Record this. Are we recording? Are we recording? And your partner's like, we're doing 100Ks on the motorway at the moment. Sit down.
Starting point is 00:26:54 Yeah, feel the wind in your hair. It's not from the highway. Bree and Clint. My partner's mum has a Tesla. I might do that, actually. Bree and Clint. It's time for the later. I might do that, actually. Bree and Clint. It's time for the later. From iHeartRadio, this is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy.
Starting point is 00:27:12 Dean, it has been a wild 24 hours since the Oscars went down, and now Will Smith has apologised. He's apologised. This is what he said. He went to Instagram, perfect place to do it, and, you know, he said it's quite a long post, but a couple This is what he said. He went to Instagram, perfect place to do it. And, you know, he said, it's quite a long post, but a couple of the highlights, he said, I'd like to publicly apologise to you, Chris.
Starting point is 00:27:31 I was out of line and I was wrong. I'm embarrassed by my actions. I'm not indicative of the man I want to be. He goes on to apologise to the Academy, producers of the show, attendees, everyone watching around the world, to the Williams family, Serena and Venus, and, of course, to, he said, my King Richard family.
Starting point is 00:27:47 I deeply regret my behavior. It has been a wild 24 hours. I can tell you two things. First of all, I found out that actually he was going to be removed last night after the slap. But what happened was all the producers running around frantically,
Starting point is 00:28:03 they couldn't get on the same page and get a consensus because there were some downstairs, some backstage. And, you know, removing Will Smith from the Oscars as he's about to be nominated was such a huge thing to do. They were terrified. It was such a panicked moment. And then today I found out, this is really crazy, that basically the 12 big members of the Academy, it's made up, they didn't say who, but they said it's made up by influential actors and directors, so really big people like, you know,
Starting point is 00:28:31 Steven Spielberg kind of thing. They met on a Zoom today, right, to discuss what would be his, you know, fate, next step. It was so heated, the 12 of them could not come to a resolution. So what are the options, right? Are they going to remove his Oscar? Probably not. Very, very
Starting point is 00:28:48 unlikely they'll take away his Oscar. Extremely unlikely. But they have in the past, I mean, they've expelled two people in the past. One was obviously Harvey Weinstein, and another person was this other guy that used to sell the DVDs before the movies came out. He'd get the movies and then sell them. Hilarious.
Starting point is 00:29:03 Oh my God. Yeah. But now, I truly don't know what will be the fate of Will, but they will probably have to have some type of reprimand. What I found amazing, Dean, was the footage that has come out of Will Smith at the after parties. I haven't seen that. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:29:20 You've got to look it up. So there's video footage of him at one of the after parties dancing to Get Jiggy With It with his Oscar in his hand, like fist bumping, smile on his face. I would have thought after a meltdown like that, you'd go home and lick your wounds, right? Wouldn't you think so? You'd think so.
Starting point is 00:29:34 I can tell you what he did. He actually got to the after party, and I can tell you on the guest list, it said Will Smith plus 20. He brought 20 to the party. I think that's hilarious. That's just so shaky. Anyway, he gets to the party, pumping, dancing, dancing to That's such a, like, you know, that's just so shaky. Anyway, he gets to the party, pumping, dancing,
Starting point is 00:29:48 dancing to Jiggy with it, living his best life, which, by the way, went down like a lead balloon for everyone who was extremely, most people that were funded by what happened. So just like you said, you wouldn't think he'd be out partying, but he lived his best. Now, Chris Rock was supposed to be at that party.
Starting point is 00:30:00 It was the Vanity Fair after party. And I don't think he actually went. I've asked everyone. I've looked everywhere. Doesn't look like Chris Rock actually went was the Vanity Fair after party. And I don't think he actually went. I've asked everyone. I've looked everywhere. Doesn't look like Chris Rock actually went to the Vanity Fair after party, but Will did with his family and all his entourage. What a bizarre situation. Thank you very much.
Starting point is 00:30:14 That is our Hollywood correspondent, Dean McCarthy, reporting live for us out of Los Angeles this afternoon. Bree and Clint. Look, we could all agree weddings are a very fun time. I love a wedding. But they are also a very stressful time for some people at the wedding. Yep. Some people who had to organise everything,
Starting point is 00:30:36 spend heaps of money for this one special day. The people who are paying for the wedding? Yes. The story out of Chile, Santiago, which I think means whale's vagina. An old wooden ship. Old wooden ship. A whale's vagina.
Starting point is 00:31:00 No, it doesn't. You don't know? It's just a place in Chile. A guy named Alvaro Rodriguez decided his sister was a little bit stressed before her wedding day
Starting point is 00:31:14 and his sister and him decided to do some special brownies leading up to the wedding. In the weeks leading up to it. And they had a great time. Those adult brownies leading up to the wedding, in the weeks leading up to it. And they had a great time. Those adult brownies. Yes, which I'm pretty sure in Chile they're legal
Starting point is 00:31:33 for personal consumption. Okay. So they had some brownies and they said it was a good time and the sister joked to the brother and said, oh, how funny would this be if the wedding cake was one big brownie? How funny would that be? How funny would it be? Anyway, the brother decided that was a great idea.
Starting point is 00:31:54 So what he did was he spent 20 hours making one particular tier because, I mean, how big is a wedding cake? So big. I think a classic wedding cake is like three tiers. Yes. So I think he made the middle tier where he spent 20 hours decorating and turning the middle tier into
Starting point is 00:32:14 a fun piece of wedding cake. Right. Okay. There was most people who got told about it to avoid the middle tier if you don't want to party. Yes, and for the kids to avoid the middle tier. Yeah, that's a good point.
Starting point is 00:32:30 But a lot of people decided to go in for the middle tier. It was shared around the wedding. And turns out a great, fantastic wedding reception was had by all. I'll bet it was. You know, it's a good time. Weird that it's only one tier as well, so you and I could go and get a bit of cake from different tiers and have completely different nights after that.
Starting point is 00:32:57 You definitely need permission from the bride at least if you're going to do something like that to her wedding cake, right? Exactly. And I believe the sister did okay the idea in the end. Okay, good. And she was keen for it. Yeah. It's just there was some adults who got told, let's say...
Starting point is 00:33:15 Too late. Maybe a little bit too late. Yeah, and I get that too. Yeah. But they should be chill about it for the rest of the evening at least. They were told about an hour and a bit later and they said, that's all good. That's all good, right?
Starting point is 00:33:29 Bro, how could you do this to me? Put some beats on. Don't worry about it, man. It's all good. Who wants to do the conga line? Is any cake left? It's a good time. Anyway, I thought off the back of this story,
Starting point is 00:33:43 I wanted to ask people, on 0800DIALS at M, we've all been to weddings and from time to time, crazy stuff happens at weddings. Like you never know what's going to happen. And I thought we could ask for people's craziest wedding stories. It might be a good outcome, might be a bad outcome. Maybe everybody at the wedding got food poisoning at the exact same time. There might have been an accident. There might have
Starting point is 00:34:08 been, you know, scandal. There might have been something great happen. Yeah, there could have been something like the best thing ever and it went down at a wedding. Someone could have spiked the wedding cake with absolutely anything. We don't know, but if you've got an outrageous story from a wedding, we'd love to hear it
Starting point is 00:34:24 this afternoon. You can call us on 0800DARLSATM or you can text us on 9696. Did you notice how as soon as we play that music, you and I both talk slower? That and I had some special cake. Oh, right, you had some of the wedding cake. We're talking about this guy from Chile who decided that he would make one of the tiers of his sister's wedding cake into a special tier. Special.
Starting point is 00:34:51 Special brownie type concoction wedding cake. You know, party cake. It was a weed wedding cake, okay? That's what it was. It was a weed wedding cake and apparently it went down very well. Everyone had a great time. But not everybody knew. Not everyone.
Starting point is 00:35:11 So we're asking you this afternoon on 0800DIALS.M, what's your craziest wedding story? Mel's here. Hi, Mel. Hi, Mel. Hey, how are you? Was it your wedding? It was my wedding.
Starting point is 00:35:20 Okay, what happened? So I got married at quite a nice vineyard wedding venue. Congratulations. And, well, the marriage is long over. Oh, okay. All right. That's right. Anyway, that's not part of it.
Starting point is 00:35:48 We had three separate instances of indoor gardening. You're kidding me. You had three groups doing the rumpy-pumpy at your wedding? Yep, and one of them was on a policeman's car. Please tell me you and your ex-hubby weren't one of them. No, we definitely weren't one of them. What do you think it was about your wedding that turned all these people into Randy Horndogs? All the oysters they were serving.
Starting point is 00:36:11 Yeah, was it oysters or champagne? All the bubbles, I think. Yeah. The bubbles might have been part of it. Wow. Well, there might have been some babies conceived at your wedding. Oh, God, I haven't even tried to work that out, and I don't want to
Starting point is 00:36:25 Some grapes were sowed Let's not even get into why there was a police car at your wedding Jess is here, g'day Jess Hi Jess Tell us, what is your craziest wedding story? We were overseas at a wedding in India The bride was Indian and the groom was German and so it was
Starting point is 00:36:46 a multi-day thing. All the white people got food poisoning, including the groom, and during one of the very elaborate ceremonies, the bride was sitting in this beautiful sari in the middle of this sort of like pavilion and he was walking around her and he threw
Starting point is 00:37:02 up and he had to keep walking all over himself, all over her. No! He just kept going because he didn't want to ruin the ceremony. What do you mean? I think the ceremony's
Starting point is 00:37:17 already ruined. I get what you're saying though. He's like, I don't want to offend your culture. I don't want to offend all your family that I've travelled over here to see. So I'm just going to. He soldiered through it. You may now kiss the bride. No, thank you.
Starting point is 00:37:34 No, thank you. No, thank you. No, thank you. No, thank you. That's terrible, Jess. That is a wild wedding story, though. That is. Someone else texted through and they said, I went to a Mormon wedding.
Starting point is 00:37:43 The wine was alcohol removed, but the host didn't realise that it was 100% alcohol free. And all these Mormons who had never drank before got very drunk. It was an amazing party. Can you imagine? Can you imagine? They would probably just think they were high on life. They were like, this is the best wedding I've ever been to.
Starting point is 00:38:04 I feel like I can do anything. Pass me some more of that non-alcoholic wine. I feel really good. God, that stuff is delicious. Give me more, man. I love it. So good. Someone else said a bunch of their groomsmen
Starting point is 00:38:18 let off a bunch of fire extinguishers in the kitchen and the dance floor at their wedding. See, that one's risky because you might get kicked out of your own wedding. But I mean, fun. Smoke show. Finally, Anonymous, what's your crazy wedding story? Hi, guys.
Starting point is 00:38:31 So it was my wedding. We had an open bar, which was a great time. One of the guests was an ex-adult dancer. Oh, okay. Yeah. And ended up giving my dad a lap dance in front of all our family and friends. Oh, woo, woo. Wait, how did the dad, how was the dad the one that went,
Starting point is 00:38:52 I put my hand up for this, I'm keen on this? Or your father and bride? I don't know how it came about, but it was pretty legendary. I bet it was. Go dad. Was there clothes that were taken off or just, you know? I think the jacket and the tie might have come off, but that might have been about it.
Starting point is 00:39:09 Oh, his clothes. Whoa, okay. Yeah, so she was undressing him. Yeah, she had the right idea. Wild wedding, wild family. Good job. Bree and Clint. But first, it's time to guess that voice.
Starting point is 00:39:27 Here to help us guess that voice is producer Anastasia. Hi, Anastasia. Hi, guys. Anastasia, that's Anastasia's voice. I was going to say that. Too slow, mate. Here to play with us is Tony. Kia ora, Tony.
Starting point is 00:39:39 G'day, Tony. Hello. Tony's voice. Oh, damn it. Team Bree or Team Clint, Tony? Team Bree. Team Bree, Lockton. Yes, Tony, welcome aboard.
Starting point is 00:39:50 That was the worst from you, Anastasia. No, you do the next one. Lucy. Lucy's here. That's Lucy. That's Lucy. I got it. Low-hanging fruit.
Starting point is 00:39:59 Yes, good team. Good team effort. Lucy, much like my wife, you're stuck with me, okay? I'm stuck. Good. Good. That's much like my wife, you're stuck with me, okay? I'm stuck. Good. Good. That's what Clint's wife tries to say sometimes. I'm stuck.
Starting point is 00:40:10 But he doesn't believe it. Anastasia, what's the rules? So the rules, we did some good demonstrations before. You just have to guess a famous person's voice and the first person to buzz in with the correct name wins them and their team a point. First to three wins. I feel like I've used up all my good guesses.
Starting point is 00:40:28 No, you got this. Normally I tell you a theme, but this week I think it's going to be a bit obvious, so you'll just figure it out as you go. Okay. Are they all Will Smith? Awkward. Can you guys, okay, just play voice number one. Will Smith.
Starting point is 00:40:42 No. Okay, here it comes, here it comes, here it comes. This is a... Break. Will Smith. Damn here it comes Here it comes This is Break Will Smith Damn it Damn it Beautiful moment And I'm not
Starting point is 00:40:51 I'm not I'm not crying For winning an award It's funny You were too busy Making the joke What about how I Seen Will Smith first
Starting point is 00:40:59 You made the joke Yeah We actually actioned it Well done Yes Alright that's a great point Okay one to Tony and I Let's hear voice number two Uncle Phil made the joke yet. We actually actioned it. Well done. Alright, that's a great point. One to Tony and I. Let's hear voice number two.
Starting point is 00:41:08 Uncle Phil. No. That was a really niche joke. You're going to be a little... It's not that niche. It's literally his biggest show. Yeah. Alright, voice number two. I'm going to. Bray, Chris Rock. That was a greatest night in the history of television.
Starting point is 00:41:30 She's on fire. Yeah, yeah. All right. Who else is involved? Did you not see the clip yesterday? I'm actually enjoying this. Okay, one more guess before the game. Jada Pinkett-Smith.
Starting point is 00:41:41 Voice number three. Let's hear it. I'm a little sad. Break. Jada Pinkett-Smith. Voice number three, let's hear it. I'm a little sad I'm never going to... Jada Pinkett-Smith? No. Clint Willow-Smith. No.
Starting point is 00:41:51 Would you like to hear it again? Let's hear it again. We're getting ahead of ourselves now. I'm a little sad I'm never going to get a you up text again. Is it Amy Schumer? You've won the game, Brie. Not like they were rolling in, but it was nice. Did you guys hear the joke she did about Leonardo DiCaprio?
Starting point is 00:42:10 No. Oh, it was overshadowed, obviously, by the Will Smith stuff. Yeah. Look it up. Did Leonardo DiCaprio get out of the audience and assault her for the joke? No, I think he sat in his chair. Oh, did he take it on the chin like you're supposed to? Hey, Tony, you've picked up the KFC chicken dollars.
Starting point is 00:42:26 Nice work, mate. Awesome, thank you. No worries. Sorry, Lucy. Much like my wife. I'm sorry, Lucy. You've disappointed her. No worries.
Starting point is 00:42:36 Much like my wife, I have let you down again. And it was only in a matter of minutes. Even that's a stretch, Bree. Unlike my wife, this Lucy didn't want me to come second. Okay, can't play it big time, eh? Let's go. Let's go to the song. Bree and Clint.
Starting point is 00:43:03 Look, I know I went MIA for five weeks. We all know. You know, I left you to run the ship here, and I felt bad because you're one of my good mates, and I thought, what can I do to make it up to my mate Clint? That's nice of you. This is not necessary, but that's nice. No, but I like to do those things, make sure that you know that you're loved.
Starting point is 00:43:24 Okay. No, but I like to do those things. Make sure that you know that you're loved. And I thought to myself, if I could get anyone, anyone on the show that would make Clint's day, who would that person be? Dan Carter. And that's where I say, welcome to the show, Dan Carter. No, really? That's right. Dan Carter is launching the DC10 fund for the 24-hour kick-a-thon,
Starting point is 00:43:49 and he is joining us right now. You are welcome, mate. Clint, take it away. I wasn't sure if you guys were stitching me up or not. I'm not sure if Clint wants me. I'm not joking, Dan, when I say I have had to listen to Clint go on and on about, can we get Dan Carter on the show? When's Dan Carter coming on the show?
Starting point is 00:44:05 And finally, you're here, and it's for something super exciting, mate. Oh, it is. I'm going to have to get you guys to come down at some stage through the 24 hours. Wait a minute, Dan. Did you just say you want Clint to come down and have a kick with you for the kick-a-thon? I don't know about a kick, but I've seen him behind the decks,
Starting point is 00:44:21 and he could actually bring some decent vibes at some stage because I'm going to need some good music so I might call upon your DJ and pro-wrestlers at some stage through the 24 hours to help me get through, brother. That'd be my pleasure, mate. Talk to me about the kick-a-thon.
Starting point is 00:44:36 What's the deal? I say it with this real, like I should be really excited about it but then I go straight to the event where I'm going to attempt to kick goals straight for 24 hours, no sleep, just crank it out at Eden Park. And I've been training quite vigorously the last six months,
Starting point is 00:44:52 but the last three weeks I've been doing four-hour, five-hour, six-hour kicking sessions. I'm absolutely buggered. But then I think about the impact of the children in New Zealand and in the Pacific Islands. I launched a charity called the DC10 Fund, and I partnered with UNICEF, and I've picked a couple of fantastic projects around providing clean water to children in the Pacific in particular. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:45:13 Mate, what a great course. Mate, is there anything you can't do? You are the best rugby player in the whole world, and you're a bloody great guy who's doing something that is so important and so amazing. Is there anything you can't do, mate? Oh, there there's lots that's why i really focus on things like kicking and being a good person because i can't sing i can't dance show them the highlights package show them the lines to a 2005 they don't even know it's funny that because um it's actually
Starting point is 00:45:40 my son's birthday today marco all his friends think that I'm a YouTube star. Like I've retired from rugby and now I'm a YouTube star because I have highlights on YouTube. So they can watch me on YouTube. But he's like, oh my God, he's not playing rugby anymore because he's focused on his YouTube career. I don't want to bring up dark memories, but worst case scenario.
Starting point is 00:46:00 What are you going to say? We'll say 2011 happens again during the 24 hours. You sound like Wayne Smith. We've been harping on about this in that moment. He's so nervous. Have you got a deputy and do you need one? Would you like someone to step in in that situation?
Starting point is 00:46:15 I'm reaching out to all my ex-teammates, guys that can kick goals the likes of Stephen Donald who saved us in 2011. There's a lot of other ex-all-black kickers. That's what I was thinking. No, Dan. I was thinking ex-players.
Starting point is 00:46:30 Sorry for laughing, but the look on Clint's face was he was hoping it was going to be him that got the call-up. Was he putting his hand up? He was. He was putting his hand up. The shoulders went back. He was like, I'm here if you need me. Don't know if you know, Dan,
Starting point is 00:46:43 but I played Locke in the Under 85s competition so my kicking... Very average. Dan, just to let you know. Locke kicking goals is the only else that's possible. I don't know how many goals your carved muscles could kick, Clint, but I'm willing to
Starting point is 00:46:59 see if we take you down to Eden Park. Hey Dan, what a fantastic cause and great to chat to you on the show, man. Whatever we can do to get behind the kick-a-thon, we're there, man. We'll help you out in any way we can. Thank you so much. You can actually just jump onto dancarter.com forward slash kick-a-thon. You can see all the information where the donations are going to be going in the Pacific
Starting point is 00:47:20 and the kids here in New Zealand. Such an amazing cause, the DC Team Fund. With Dan Carter, he's going for the kick-a-thon, 24 hours. Hopefully you can walk still after it, Dan. Yeah. I don't know. It's been done before so I'm going into new territory so we'll see whether this old
Starting point is 00:47:39 rig of mine can handle it or not. Dan, Clint's always wanted to tell you this. Go on, tell him. What's that? This is what you always say in the studio. What's that? Tell him the thing that you want to tell him.
Starting point is 00:47:53 What do I want to tell him? You love. You love Danny. Good luck, Dan. Love you, bro. Love you too, Clint. You've had a near-death experience, Brie? Yeah, I have.
Starting point is 00:48:08 Have you? Yeah. Does it change your life? Like after it happened, were you like, that's it, I'm going vegan or something? I think I was quite young. I was about 10, so I don't think I was. Is this the home invasion? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:25 You've told me about this. Yeah. Me, my mum and my nan were involved in a home invasion. I mean, some people might not say that's a near-death experience, but... No, I think it is. I think it's in that category. Any time where you think you're going to die I think counts. My near-death experience, I was very young too and so I think it doesn't...
Starting point is 00:48:42 I think if you are young, it has less of an impact. It's not the same effect, yeah. Because what are you going to change as a kid? You're going to go, that's it, no more cartoons for me. I'm getting a piercing. I'm going to carpe the DM. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:48:53 There is a story out about someone who I say lived through, everybody lived through it, but they were a part of that. Do you remember in 2018 when everybody in Hawaii got that text message to say that there was a nuclear missile strike coming? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:49:10 Do you remember that? I do, yep. So everybody who lived there got one of those alert texts that you get on your phone, one of those warning system things. Which is scary at the best of times. And it said a nuclear missile strike was imminent. So if you lived there, there was a nuke coming. And I don't know what you're supposed to do with that information.
Starting point is 00:49:28 Because you can't get to higher ground when it's a nuke. It's not like people have, you know, bomb bunkers in their houses either. No, especially in Hawaii. Yeah. It took 38 minutes for them to update that message and say, sorry, false alarm. Because the message should have never gone out. There was no missile ever coming.
Starting point is 00:49:46 It was this thing that was loaded up just in case and it should never have been released. But for 38 minutes, those people thought they were going to die. Do you think in that, I mean, it's not something to laugh about because it is horrible, but do you think they knew but they were just trying to be like, okay, well, we've really stuffed up here, and they took 38 minutes to write.
Starting point is 00:50:07 How do we deal with this? How do we retract this properly? Can we write JK lol? Jokes. I don't think that would have went down well. No, they had to own it, and people were very angry, rightly so. Someone has put out this tweet recently. They said, my brother lived in Hawaii
Starting point is 00:50:26 when this happened. His neighbour, when they thought they were going to die, got into a bathtub with a mattress over his head it's going to save you from the nuke, took a shot of whiskey and texted his ex-girlfriend that he still loved her just in case they all
Starting point is 00:50:42 died. No! It was a false alarm on the nuke, but they got back together. No, they didn't. Yeah, they did. His near-death experience got him back together with his ex-girlfriend. I love that story. They could make a movie about that. Thank God it went that way and he didn't go,
Starting point is 00:50:59 I'm going to die, it's time to tell my ex-girlfriend what I really think of her. Yeah, it's time to send out some texts to some people. It's time to drop some truth bombs before the nuke gets here. It's time to tell my ex-girlfriend what I really think of her. Yeah, it's time to send out some texts to some people. It's time to drop some truth bombs before the note gets here. It's time to let out the secrets. But yeah, he looked his near-death experience in the eye and said, this is what I want and made it happen. And there's a happy ending. They ended up getting back together.
Starting point is 00:51:17 I love that. And it does, I guess, I would assume, like send you into this kind of mode where you think about, okay, what's the most important? Yeah. What's the most important thing? Totally. You know? I wondered if we could talk about that this afternoon. People who have had a near death experience, what did you do afterwards? What did you do because of that near death experience? And did it change your life for the better or for the worse? Yeah. did it catapult you into something amazing
Starting point is 00:51:46 or did you make some decisions after it that you're like, I don't know about those. Yeah, did it force you, did it send you back into a great relationship or did you go, life is short, I'm going to blow my life savings and then it turns out, oh, life's not actually that short and I wish I still had some money. I'm going to buy that car that I've always wanted and put it on a credit card.
Starting point is 00:52:04 Oh, $800 at M. You can text us on 9696. We want to know this afternoon, what did you do after a near-death experience? I'll wait for these. Bree and Clint. We're talking near-death experiences and what that can do to you,
Starting point is 00:52:20 what that can make you realise about life and make you do. We talked a story about a guy who was in Hawaii when they did the fake, well not fake, the false nuclear missile strike text message and for 38 minutes everybody in the area thought they were going to die. He hid in the bath with a mattress over his head, took a shot of whiskey and texted his ex and said, I still love you. And they got back together.
Starting point is 00:52:44 They survived and they got back together. I love that story. I think very cute. Someone on the text machine said they were in Hawaii when that text message got sent out. Can you imagine? What would you do? What would you do in that moment?
Starting point is 00:52:56 You think the end is coming. It's call friends and family, right? Yeah. It'd be cool. Yeah. FaceTime anyone you could. Tell people you love them. Then get butt naked
Starting point is 00:53:06 and run down the middle of the street. Yeah, just crazy stuff. We're all going to die! Post some nudes online, you know. We're getting some good texts on this. Stefan has messaged in. G'day, Stefan. Hello, Stefan.
Starting point is 00:53:17 How's it going? You had a near-death experience. What happened to you? Well, we went to the lake with my dog and threw the tennis ball in and he decided not to get it and thought he was going to drown a bit so I went in to save him and then
Starting point is 00:53:29 he was jumping all over me and we both thought we were going down and we, yeah, got out of it and thought we deserved an ice cream afterwards. Wait, you nearly drowned with your dog as you needed experience and so you went and got some ice cream? Yeah, I thought we deserved it. Mate, what kind of dog do you need to get experience and so you went and got some ice cream yeah i thought we deserved it mate what kind of dog do you have stefan oh chocolate uh black lab oh yeah yeah

He needs to know where his skill set lies. Okay, Stefan, good work, man. Melissa's here. Hi, Melissa. Hi, Melissa. Hi, how's it going? Good, thanks. Did you have a near-death experience? Not me. My daughter, a few years ago, had a horrible near-death experience
Starting point is 00:54:14 because she'd always been busting our balls for years to get married. Her and her dad finally got married after 18 years being together. Oh. Wow. Melissa, that's awesome. I love that story. Oh, I know. So cute.
Starting point is 00:54:29 It would make you take stock, eh? You or anybody that you love like that, if you come close to losing them, you'd go, well, what's important? What do they want? Did she ask for anything else? Was she like, and you know what else I've always wanted? A PlayStation.
Starting point is 00:54:44 She already has one of those. Yeah, right, right, right, right, right. Because if you haven't had any of the experience, it's probably good to milk that for all it's worth, right? Yeah, be like, while we're at it, now that you're married, you know, let's add a few more things to the list. I'd love a pool. Oh, don't worry, she gets everything.
Starting point is 00:54:58 Oh, yeah, I get that. I love that, Mel. Well, congratulations to the whole family, Melissa. What a beautiful story. Very cool. Thank you so much. You're welcome, mate. Someone's texted in about whole family, Melissa. What a beautiful story. Very cool. Thank you so much. You're welcome, mate. Someone's texted in about having a ruptured ectopic pregnancy
Starting point is 00:55:10 that went undiagnosed until they needed emergency surgery for internal bleeding. That is terrifying, right? You know, I was just telling you off air, that exact thing happened to my mother. Yes. In between having me and my brother, she had a ruptured ectopic pregnancy
Starting point is 00:55:26 and she was going to die. And I remember she's told me the story so many times and it's just, so we lived in a rural area and in the hospital, in the town hospital, they were like, she's going to die here. We need to get her to the closest bigger hospital. Yeah. But there was such bad storms around that the helicopter couldn't get off off the helipad so they put her into this
Starting point is 00:55:51 ambulance and they've started driving and they get to this certain point where there's just water just screaming across the road and the ambo is like saying to my dad we're losing her like there's nothing i can do and it was actually actually a semi-trailer, a truck driver who stopped and then they were talking about it and they're like, he's like, I will unhook my trailer and we will put her up into the cab of this truck and we will try. He's like, it might not work but we've got to try and they've pulled her up into the cab of this truck
Starting point is 00:56:23 and they've driven through this giant wall of water and they made it to the hospital and my mum is still here today. Wow. Yeah. What did she do after her near-death experience? I'm pretty sure she got, I think, I actually don't know. Did she make a big life change? Probably.
Starting point is 00:56:41 My mum is that type of person, but I think that's probably something that's really made my mum who she is, and I think she always sees the best in everything and lives in the moment. And, you know, it could be from that experience. Far out, man. That sort of stuff puts everything in perspective, right? It does, hey. Bree and Clint.
Starting point is 00:57:01 It's my birthday. It's my birthday. Bree and Clint's birthday banger. Before we do that, we've got a birthday banger coming for you. Three people's birthdays. What was the number one song on their 16th? And then we'll pick our favourite out of the three. Kia ora, Paige.
Starting point is 00:57:15 Welcome to the show. Hi, Paige. Hey, how's it going? Good, mate. How are you? Oh, I'm tired and it's only Tuesday, but I'm all right. What have you been up to that makes you so tired? I love an honest answer.
Starting point is 00:57:28 Work, just doing the mahi. What do you do for mahi? I'm a full-time mum. Oh, you have every right to be tired, Paige. I am not going to argue with you, Paige. I hear you on that. We will agree and move on. What's your birthday page? So my birthday
Starting point is 00:57:48 is the 7th of October 1997. Okay, mate. You were 16 in 2013 and on the 7th of October your 16th birthday, this was number one. Sounds like maybe your kid.
Starting point is 00:58:06 That must have been a hard 16th birthday with that song. This is the song your kid plays as they run into the bedroom at seven in the morning? Yeah. You ruined my life. Whoa. Let me sleep till 7am, for God's sake. Thanks, Paige.
Starting point is 00:58:24 Wait there, Norman's here. Kia ora, Norman. Hi, Norman. Kia ora. How are you going, Stormin Norman? Yeah, that's what they call me. I like it, Norman. That's the one, yeah.
Starting point is 00:58:33 Good to have you on the show. How's your day been, Norman? Absolutely exhausting. Tell us about it. Talk us through it. What's been going on, Norman? Just sell, sell, sell. What are you selling? What do you going on, Norman? Oh, just sale, sale, sale. What are you selling?
Starting point is 00:58:46 What do you sell? I'm a manager at Bridgestone Tire Centre. Oh, show me the money, Norman. Where the rubber hits the road, right? That's correct. Oh, I feel you, Norman. Well, let's put a bit of pep in your step with a birthday banger. What's your birthday?
Starting point is 00:59:00 Sure. 20th of June, 1976. So, yeah, I'm a bit of an old fart. With your accent, that could have sounded a little bit different. You were 16 in 1992. And, Norman, here's your birthday banger. Criss Cross. Or as they say where you're from, Norman, Criss Cross.
Starting point is 00:59:24 Criss Cross. Criss Cross. I detect the South African accent're from, Norman, Criss Cross. Criss Cross. Criss Cross. I detect a South African accent. I love it, Norman. You're great. Do you like it? Do you like this for your birthday banger? Yeah, I love it.
Starting point is 00:59:32 It's a good one. Yeah, I think it's cool, man. Okay, wait there. We'll do one more Fiona. For Fiona, Kia ora, Fiona. Hi, Fi. Kia ora. Tell us, Fi, honest answer, how are you?
Starting point is 00:59:43 Oh, tired. I love it. We got three from Fi. Tired vibes around the country at the moment. Tired, exhausted, tired, and it is relatable. I wish the guy who sold tyres said he was tired. Oh, that would have been good. Real missed opportunity from Norman.
Starting point is 00:59:58 Yeah, it would have been good. Fi, what's your birthday? 3rd of October, 1964. Now, before we get into it, Fi, I want to ask, is there anything in particular that you're really hoping for? Any artists? I kind of thought Michael Jackson, but then I'm trying to wreck my brain. I'm pretty sure he was around.
Starting point is 01:00:17 Maybe Prince. He had a few number ones. So we're looking at the year of 1980 and the 3rd of October. Yeah. I think you're a bit early for MJ, but... I think you're going to be very pleasantly surprised because, Fee, in 1980, on your 16th birthday, this was top of the chart.
Starting point is 01:00:39 Another one bites the dust. Woo! Banger! Another one bites the dust. Forget! Banger! Another one bites the dust. Forget Prince, you got Queen. Yeah. Please tell me you like Queen, Fee. Oh, yeah, I love Queen.
Starting point is 01:00:53 Yes! Good, because that's my vote to win Birthday Banger this afternoon. As if I'm not voting for a better Queen. Lock it in. Well done, Fee. You, today, are the birthday banger champion. Awesome. Enjoy it, mate.
Starting point is 01:01:08 Here it comes. Your birthday banger out of 1980, which makes it 42 years old. Yeah, and just think, everyone is tired. So this day, another one bites the dust, baby. Oh, that's gold radio. Yeah, that's good stuff. Put it in the radio awards. I thought after yesterday's controversy at
Starting point is 01:01:36 the Oscars, of course I'm talking about Chris Rock and Will Smith, we should get the opinion of someone in the industry. You know, Chris Rock is a comedian who is doing his job, and last night he got assaulted by a member of the audience. So who do we know who has a very punchable face? And that is Guy Williams.
Starting point is 01:01:55 Hey, that was harsh but fair, but fair. That's what I love about you guys. You're very fair. Okay, good. Semi-professional comedian Guy Williams joins us this afternoon. Guy, first of all, what did you make of yesterday and the Oscars? Did you watch it live? Did you see it happen?
Starting point is 01:02:13 First of all, Clint, I'm not semi-professional. I'm no longer getting paid, so I'm back to fully amateur comedian. Oh, you've regressed. Okay, yeah. I saw it yesterday because everyone saw it. I was in the office having a meeting
Starting point is 01:02:27 and everyone stopped what they were doing to watch this clip. Like people literally huddled around computers. It is crazy how this went around the world and it like,
Starting point is 01:02:36 honestly, like I reckon changed people's days because I couldn't be productive after I saw it. It was so bizarre and so weird.
Starting point is 01:02:44 It took up so much space in my mind for the last 24 hours and we're still talking about it. And our Facebook and Instagram. I know, it's inescapable. I want to ask you this, Guy, because you are a comedian. It is a job. Chris Rock was doing his job, right? He's poking fun at a room full of people
Starting point is 01:02:59 who were there taking themselves very seriously in a ceremony of self-congratulations. It was his job to poke fun at the people in the room, right? Yeah, it absolutely was his job. And absolutely, it's not okay to slap someone in the face. Even if they said worse things than that, you don't hit people. I know this is a lesson for maybe some people out there,
Starting point is 01:03:24 but it's just a general rule is try not to hit people. I know this is a lesson for maybe some people out there, but it's just a general rule is try not to hit people. Those are my main. Don't show anyone my willy who doesn't want to see it and don't hit people. Those are my main rules for life. It's a good mantra. Guy, I'm very interested to know, because we joke about you being hit in the face,
Starting point is 01:03:40 but have you actually ever been struck in the face because of a joke you made? No! No! This is not normal, and how annoying do you think I am that someone would actually hit me in the face? Also, I'm a very fast runner, so no one can hit me in the face. Yeah, and you're very tall. It's hard to get
Starting point is 01:03:58 up there. There's a poll on stuff.co.nz. Do you want to hit Guy Williams in the face? You do not want to hear the results, man. No, 95% said absolutely. So you haven't though. There's no one's crossed that line because surely you've offended some people with jokes before. That comes with the territory,
Starting point is 01:04:14 right? Yeah, and I've heard, I don't know, I mean, obviously this happened in real life, but it has increased in the last couple of years and it is a problem. For me least of all, but for a lot of comedians out there and just people in general you don't have to be a comedian just people online now will like threaten you or want to beat you up or do a death threat over nothing you know you just
Starting point is 01:04:35 do a tweet or a joke um you don't have to do a tweet or a joke just be a woman online or be a minority online it's just crazy i don't know what's going on but i don't know it's covid or the wars or trump or what it is but a lot of people have just lost um touch with reality and unfortunately will smith seems like he's one of those people where you're like this is not how you behave like what's going on we've got guy williams on the phone talking about chris rock and will smith yesterday i want to flip it around, though, and ask, as a comedian, does Chris Rock have a special privilege to say whatever he wants on the stage because he's joking? He kind of does.
Starting point is 01:05:14 I'm always like, yeah, freedom of speech, all that. At the same time, you've got to watch what you're joking about. Don't get me wrong. He didn't deserve to be hit. No one deserves to be hit. But if you do make jokes about personally people who are two metres in front of you, there is a chance they might react badly, you know? And, like, you've got to be prepared for that.
Starting point is 01:05:35 And I don't want to victim blame, but Chris Rock, the least you could have done is, like, run away a little bit, you know? He literally just sat there and took it. He took it well. He took it so well. But I'm like, how funny would it have been if he saw Will Smith charging towards him and he started running around the stage being chased by Will Smith?
Starting point is 01:05:58 Now that's comedy. That would be an iconic, iconic moment. It already was an iconic moment, but, like, yeah, the world's gone crazy. There you go. That is professional comedian Guy Williams with his thoughts on the stuff that went down yesterday. Thanks for joining us, Guy. We appreciate it.
Starting point is 01:06:14 Thanks, Guy. Really nice to talk to you guys. New Zealand Today Season 3 is coming out soon. We're filming it now. Yeah, that's right. And the podcast is out too, Guy and Karen. Yeah, the podcast. And we hope you don't get hit in the face anytime soon.
Starting point is 01:06:27 Thanks, guys. No worries. You've never been a wordler, eh? You didn't get into Wordle? No, I'm not smart enough. Blew up the world, Wordle, over summer, didn't it? Really test your brain, and I feel like I gave it a go. I did, so I know what it's about.
Starting point is 01:06:43 But I just ended up cheating. Ben, you're a wordler, right? Are you still wordling? Because these things have a lifespan, right? I gave it a go. I did, so I know what it's about. But I just ended up cheating. Ben, you're a wordler, right? Are you still wordling? Because these things have a lifespan, right? My partner's still wordling. Are you still wordling, Ben? Yep, I do it every day. Every day?
Starting point is 01:06:54 Do you get it every day? No. I get it every day except two days ago, and that sort of mucked my windscreen. Oh, okay, okay. Well, the guy who made Wordle And sold it Has spoken about why Why he sold it
Starting point is 01:07:09 And I think this is very relatable Not really So fun fact the guy who created Wordle His name is Josh Wardle W-A-R-D-L-E Stop it it is not He made the game for his puzzle loving partner She was into it so he created this platform for her.
Starting point is 01:07:26 I did know this, yeah. It blew up. He got millions of people playing this game in a very short space of time. And he said the whole experience left him feeling pretty stressed out. Like, the pressure of it all was a lot. And he's like, I didn't do this for it to be
Starting point is 01:07:43 the next big thing. I didn't intend to for it to be the next big thing i didn't intend to be an internet sensation um he said that then a whole bunch of ripoff versions of the game started to pop up in the app store and they were ones where they were charging you for the game so it's like 3.99 to download it but it's not real it's not the real word it was like a knockoff version and now making money out of his idea. Meanwhile, the whole time, his is free. Yeah.
Starting point is 01:08:07 He was never trying to make money out of it. Turtle. What happens on Turtle? You don't want to know. Okay. So then he was in this tricky position where he either had to, like, take these people to court and sue them, send them a cease and desist, and then sue them for stealing his idea.
Starting point is 01:08:25 And then go through all of that hassle. But he wasn't making any money. So it's not like he was- There was no point. There was no point for him. So then the New York Times came along and said, yo, we'd love your game. We'll buy it off you.
Starting point is 01:08:38 How much do you think he sold the game Wordle for? Got millions of players worldwide. It's the hottest topic in the world. It's on all the late night TV shows. Everyone's playing it. What's that worth? $200k. No, not $200k. It's worth heaps more than that. Well, I was going to say I didn't want
Starting point is 01:08:54 to overshoot it. I was going to say a million. Well, he sold it for between $1 and $3 million US. That's cheap. It's cheap as chips. He's killing it. The guy who invented Snapchat got offered $5 billion. Yeah, but that's Snapchat, which has way more longevity. This is like a game where you literally do barely any work.
Starting point is 01:09:14 You put one word up a day and you let the website do the work. I think he did really well. Do you reckon? Between $1 and $3 million. Yeah. So let's say it's 2 million Which is technically 4 million Yeah New Zealand
Starting point is 01:09:30 Yeah For literally doing not much I just think he could have got more But you know if it's stressing you out 2 million dollars is not a bad payday I think that's pretty good I guess I just always think
Starting point is 01:09:40 Oh I think you've got to hold out for a better deal Listen to you I don't want to hold out for a better deal Oh he sold too cheap. He sold it way too cheap. A measly $2 million. Play ZM's Brand Clint. On Insta, Facebook, TikTok, and live weekdays from 3 on ZM.
