The ZM Podcast Network. Hi everybody, welcome to the Brie and Clint podcast on this, the fifth anniversary of my wedding. See, I didn't forget. Didn't forget. Oh shit, I forgot. Well that's okay, you're allowed to forget. Okay, yeah, true. I don't need to remember. I need to remember your birthday, not your wedding anniversary. I do find it weird when other people wish you a happy anniversary on your wedding anniversary.

I'm like, thanks, but you don't have to remember it. It's not really about you, is it? Yeah, it's not really your thing. I always found it weird with my parents' anniversary too. I'm like, do I have to get you guys a present for that, for your wedding anniversary? I don't feel like I do. It's not my wedding anniversary.

No. We don't, hey? I don't, like I do. It's not my wedding anniversary. No. We don't, hey? I don't, do I? No, absolutely not. No? Claude? What was the question? Do I have to get my parents a gift for their wedding anniversary?

No, but maybe if it's like one of those really like 50th, like significant ones, but not like every year. But they plan the party, right? It's their anniversary. Yeah, yeah, yeah, of course. Good, just checking. Speaking of cute little things, my parents are on a little romantic getaway at the moment.

Cute. Oh, they're trying to rekindle the spark, are they? No, my dad bought, well, I forced my dad to buy my mum a trip for her Christmas present because that's all my mum ever wants is to go on a trip. Yeah. And they're currently in a little New South Wales country town, this is for all our Aussie listeners, called Armadale.

Oh, okay. Sounds fancy. It's actually a really cute little place. Doesn't it sound fancy? It doesn't sound fancy to me. Armadale. Sounds very rural. Do Armadalos live there?

No, no. Is that what the local people are called? What I shared with you guys earlier today, I shared that, and Aussies will know who this is, Sam Mack, who is an icon, Aussie icon on Australian television. He's like the Matty McLean of Brekkie TV on Sunrise. Celebrity weatherman. Celebrity weatherman.

I get an inbox from him and it's a video of him standing with my parents. Yeah. And hold on, let me play it for you down the line. You might be able to hear it. So I was like, what the hell is this? And this is the video of Sam Mack and my parents. Oh, Brianna. He spotted my mum, recognised her in the wild,

and then taken that video with her. Iconic. Do you reckon she misappropriates her celebrity status sometimes? Do you think sometimes she goes into a cafe or something and there's not enough tables and she's like, do you know who I am? Have you got talk? I could picture her.

No, I'm just kidding. She would never do that. She always forgets and then, but she loves to be recognised. Like she loves it. She always tells me about all the sightings people have and she'll be like, oh, I got recognised in the coffee takeaway line earlier today. They gave me 50 cents off my coffee.

Oh, see, cashing in on her celebrity status. She eats it up. She loves it. I take advantage of knowing Brie as well. Do you? Yeah, constantly. What has it afforded you? Not much yet but big things are coming. Big things coming? Yeah, they're on the horizon. I'm going to give you some of my wardrobe.

Some of those K-Road bars you get bumped up the queue so you can get in faster. Get in for free. Get into the Brie Thomasale booth. Hey, Claude, putting up with me, eventually it'll pay off for something. Eventually.

Oh, yeah. One day we'll try and meet Channing Tatum through Brie. Oh, that's true. We're getting further away from Channing Tatum. Yeah. He's now cancelling on us. Shall we pick a different person to assess over? What about Harry Styles?

Yeah, what about Dua Lipa? Or Dua. Or Taylor Swift. Billie Eilish? God, you're really shooting for the ceiling, aren't you? Come on, Bree. Give us someone achievable. Okay, ready?

What about... This is going to be the show's new celebrity crush. This is who we're going to quest after. We're going to set our targets on. It is... Paula Bennett. We've had Paula Bennett. Oh, we've already met her.

I love her, but that was disappointing. Okay, let's go again. Come on, round two. Talk about achievable. I think she's in the building recording a podcast. Okay, who's it going to be? We're going to get... Oh, shit.

Simon Rogers. What about Chris Hipkins? He's a cutie. You want to get the new Prime Minister? Yeah, he's cool. He's a bit more out of reach these days. I say we go for Liam Hemsworth. We get him when he's down on his luck.

Oh, true. Wait, but he's been cancelled. Yeah, that's how we get him. Yeah. Yeah, that's why he's achievable. Or is he dragging us down with him? Yeah, I reckon at this stage we could get Liam Hemsworth or Will Smith. Ooh.

So, yeah, you get the ones that are vulnerable. Will will be like, someone wants to talk to me? Yeah. Yes, please. Oh, Jake Gyllenhaal. No. Is he cancelled? Yeah, he got cancelled.

Don't you know the Taylor Swift drama? Do you think he's cancelled? He's not. He's fine. No, no. In my brain. Not a fan. Because of the Taylor Swift song from 15 years ago. All too well. Oh, God, guys. The 10 minute version was more recent. The scarf! The red scarf, guys!

The red scarf! Apparently that scarf doesn't even exist. It's just a metaphor. I'm so angry. No way. There's metaphors in songs now? I know. Alright, join us tomorrow as we go in search of Paula Bennett, Liam Hemsworth and Chris Hipkins.

And ways to abuse Brie's fame. Oh yeah, and Brie won't be here. Brie, do you want a parting message? You're going to be away for a couple of weeks. Oh yeah. I'm going to be away for two weeks. Some people will be excited about that. My parting message, my advice is...

Channing Tatum will. My advice is always wipe more than you have to. That's really good advice. Rub yourself raw. Rub yourself raw. Not raw, but rub... I feel like better advice would be rub just enough. I thought you were going to say front to back.

If you think you've wiped enough, wipe once more. That is the advice. There's always more. Thank you, Brie. Thank you, Brie. You're welcome, guys. I'll miss all of you. Love you.

Bye. Bye. I'm coming in. Well, how do you feel, then? If she dies, we're putting that on her tombstone. G'day, everybody. Welcome to the show. It's, what day is it?

Thursday? Thursday, my friend. Yeah. Love a Thursday. I like a Thursday. Love a thirsty Thursday. What about that news that there's thunderstorms predicted for Auckland? What is going on? Sorry to bombard you with more weather chat, but

Jesus, what more do we have to put up with? Honestly. Honestly. Honestly. Honestly. South Islanders, we're all coming down. We're all getting on the next Air New Zealand flight. We're all coming to invade you guys. We've had enough of this. That's the last thing they want. They said, stay away.

You chose your island. You stay there. Speaking of South Islanders, well, he's from the North Island, but he's a South Island hero. Israel Dagg joins us on the show today. He's got a brand new TV show with Stephen Donald where they go fix up old sports clubs.

And we're going to talk to Kaylee Bell, who's the Kiwi country music artist who has just been announced to open for Ed Sheeran on his stadium shows. God, just all the big stars on the show for a Thursday. We're going to cross to Hayley Sproul too who currently is at the big

Ed Sheeran press conference ahead of his shows. That's the thing where you get one really important question in front of the world's media and you have to not stuff it up. I want to know what her question was. What do you reckon? Oh, she's already done it. Has she asked the question? I think she's doing it right now.

I think she's currently doing it right now. Oh, jeez. That is pressure because, like, when you're interviewing a big celebrity like Ed Sheeran, when you do it, like, just in a room where it's just you, like, you're just going to live with that embarrassment if you stuff up. Yeah, correct.

But in front of everyone at a press conference, the pressure is big. Yeah, we edit bad questions out of our interviews before we play them to you guys. She has no edit function. This is all, the one news team are there. They would have seen it as well. So we'll get that from Hayley soon,

but let's kick things off with Tradiverse Lady. We've got 50 bucks cash up for grabs in a fresh round of Tradie vs. Lady. That's right. If you want to play, you've got to call 0800-DIAL-ZM. See if you can take out the win this afternoon. Bree and Clint. Time for a round of Tradie vs. Lady. Bree and Clint.

Tradie vs. Lady. The Tradies been on a good run the last couple of days. They have brought their wins up to six, just trailing behind the ladies who were on seven. Let's go to our lady first. She's calling in from West Auckland. She's 29 and she was born on Halloween. How spooky. Welcome to the show, Valerie.

Oh, Valerie. Why don't you come on over, mate? Bet you haven't heard that before, Valerie. Yeah. I appreciate the little sympathy laugh. She's laughing. Hey, good to have you on the show. She's laughing politely. Yeah, she is. I can tell.

You're taking on our trainee today. He's 36. No, he's 30. He's from Christchurch and he loves gaming, but he isn't very good at it. Please welcome to the show, Ethan. G'day, Ethan. Hey, how's it going? Mate, you and I have that in common.

I like to game. I'm horrible. What's your game of choice? Fortnite, even though people think it's died years ago. Mate, on the Fortnite-er, we should do Drop sometime soon. Yeah, let's do it. Okay, cool. You might be in the same league as each other.

Yeah, okay. Ethan, your buzzer is tradie. Valerie, yours is lady. First to get to three correct answers is going to go home with 50 bucks, thanks to KFC. Good luck, guys. Here we go. Question number one.

In which sport would you perform the Fosbury flop? Traite. Yes, Ethan. Ethan. High jump. That is spot on, Ethan. Nice work. It is the high jump.

One to the tradies. Question number two. Ashton Kutcher appears in the Netflix reboot of That 90s Show. Who is he married to? Trady. Yeah, Valerie. No, sorry, Ethan. Ethan got in there first.

Maylick Freeness? Yeah, that's right. That is correct. Since 2014, I think they've been married. She also appears in the reboot of the show. Two to the tradies. He's off to an absolute flyer. Valerie, you need this one here to stop him.

Question number three. Traditionally, how many wonders of the world are there? Tradie. Ethan, for the win. Seven. He's got it. Well done. And that completes the ultimate Tradie Comeback.

It is seven games apiece, and Ethan, you walk away with $50 cash, thanks to KFC. Congratulations. Cheers. Who said he wasn't good at games? He just blitzed it. See you on the fortnights, Ethan. See you on the drops.

Bree and Clint. Ed Sheeran's in the country. He's been here for ages now, actually. He's chilling, hanging out in Wellington. He went to that pub in Featherston, we called them to have a chat to them about that. He's getting around the place. Surely hanging out with Peter Jackson a little bit as well, right? I heard he's buying

Shania Twain's old place in Wanaka. Oh, really? Yeah, that's what I heard. He likes the place that much, right. Yeah, rumours. Well, he has walked back some very controversial comments that he made about New Zealand in 2015, specifically regarding our chocolate. Now, I don't think there's any doubt that Ed has love and respect for New Zealand.

He's been here a lot. He gives a lot of time and energy to New Zealand. But back in 2015 he tweeted, everything down under is better, except for the chocolate. That's a big call from him. Yeah, that is a big call. That's actually shots fired

to a country that prides itself on having good chocolate, isn't it? Real offensive. I'm offended. Now, as he gets ready for his three massive stadium shows, the first one in Wellington tonight at Sky Stadium, he's changed his tune and he's posted

to Instagram, I take back what I said about New Zealand chocolate. It's actually alright, isn't it? It's alright! It's far from a ringing endorsement but as you would expect, the Whittaker's social media team have jumped on it. They have absolutely swarmed his posts

and they've got in there and they're like, if you love chocolate, you should try Whittaker's. You should come down to the factory. Chocolate, we've got chocolate. You should have some of our chocolate. We'll give you the factory. You want the factory? We'll give it to you.

Please like this comment. Please, please like this comment. Please, please, please, please, please, please, please. I thought in light of that, we should get to the bottom of this and figure out exactly what is the best chocolate brand and flavour

that's available here in New Zealand. People are passionate about this. Everybody's got an opinion, right? You eat a lot of chocolate, just like me, Bree. You'd have an opinion on this, wouldn't you? Yeah, of course. I love a bit of chocolate late at night. You say you're only going to have two or four pieces, but you end up, of course. I love a bit of chocolate late at night. You say you're only going to have two or four pieces, but you end up having three rows. It's a very common occurrence in my family.

Minimum two rows. Minimum two rows. Minimum. Yeah, yeah. Okay, so what is it for you? What's the best brand and flavour? Well, I have to go with what I consistently buy and have bought for the last however many years. Something that's constantly on my shopping list would have to be the Whittaker's hazelnut. Oh, not even the hazella, the straight up hazelnut one. The hazelnut, the classic, actual, authentic, full nuts. I like a full nut in my chocolate bar, you know. You like full nut, nuts. I like a full nut in my chocolate bar, you know? You like full nut.

Okay, that's good. I like a full nut. I also like nuts in my chocolate. That's why mine would be a Whittaker's as well. It would be a Whittaker's fruit and nut. Get in the bin. I love... You do this...

I love Whittaker's fruit and nut. You do this to wind me up. Whittaker's fruit and nut. Like, I love Whittaker's fruit and nut. You do this to wind me up. Whittaker's fruit and nut, like I love Whittaker's, but no, fruit and nut is not the best... I like what I like and I like fruit and nut. I like Whittaker's fruit and nut. Get in the bin with your fruit and nut. Well, we can't agree.

That's why I've been around polling the people today with that very question. What is the greatest brand and flavour of chocolate available here in Aotearoa? We'll start with Georgia. What's the best brand and flavour of chocolate in New Zealand? Whittaker's. The West Coast Buttermilk Caramelised White Chocolate. What?

It's a niche range. Okay, we shouldn't have started with Georgia. It's got to be Whittaker's Hazella. Definitely Whittaker's, but the tip top. What's the jelly tip one? That's the best. That's got to be Whittaker's Hazella. Definitely Whittaker's but the tip top, what's the jelly tip one? That's the best. That's the best? That's so niche. It's got to be the basic, just the Whittaker's chocolate. The Whittaker's blue.

Amazing. Also second, Almond Slab. I love Almond Slab. Whittaker's Hokey Pokey Truncil. Overall Whittaker's is the best but at the moment the Cadbury Mini Eggs, they're my favourite. Lint Peppermint. Lint? Fancy! Well, that's just my favourite. I'm not saying I get to eat it very often.

Lint 70% Dark Chocolate. Warehouse Easter Eggs. Definitely Whitaker's. I'd say Dark Ghana. That slaps. Is that vegan? Yeah. Eddie, our only Aussie, and you're also our boomer representative. Hang on. You're starting me on a tirade now about just tell us the chocolate, Eddie.

RJ's mint balls. Phew, glad we waited for that one. Eddie the boomer Australian was very sensitive about his choice of chocolate. He goes, I know I'm going to cop flack for this. Can I just say, Claude, I have resonated with what you've said. The Cadbury's mini eggs that come out for Easter. Oh, aren't they the best? Yeah.

Why are they so good? I'm stocking up. I don't get it. Yeah, because you think they're little and so it doesn't impact you to have a couple, but then you end up eating the whole bag, so they just disappear. Yeah, they're so good. Can we also have a round of applause for Ella the Vegan for not saying oat milk chocolate?

Well done. Thank you. You've come a long way. Even she knows that oat milk chocolate is a barrel. It's not quite there yet. There's a lot of work to be done. A lot. Even that review is generous, to be honest.

Ed Sheeran, we forgive you for your chocolate comments. Bree and Clint. Time for the latest. From iHeartRadio, this is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy. Listen up, DC stands. Dean McCarthy's got an update on the future of the movie franchise. Hi, Dean. Hi, Dean.

Hi, guys. This is a huge update. James Gunn, who's obviously leading DC these days, has released some incredible news on his Instagram. They actually said, we're going to release information by February 1, and they hit the deadline. He has shared that there's going to be 10 new titles coming out.

As you know, they've lost some big names like Dwayne Johnson, Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot. But what he kind of explained and alluded to was that they're going to combine the DC TV shows and the DC movies and that those characters, which appear in both, will be acted by the same person in both to kind of make it all make sense. If you are more like me and you get a bit confused

by these DC universes and shows and the movies, it can be a little bit confusing, right? His game plan is to kind of bring it all together in a more distinct one place. And there'll be 10 titles coming out, including, in 2025, a reboot of Superman. Wow. But I feel like, haven't we had 55 Supermans?

Yeah. I don't mean to be shamed of it. Isn't there a Superman every year? Well, there was that controversy, too, where Henry Cavill posted that he was excited to be bringing Superman back, and he was getting geared up to start shooting a new Superman movie and literally

the week later it was announced that he had been dropped as Superman and they weren't going with him. So people have just started identifying with him and Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman and then they're going to go ahead and replace them again? It is very confusing. I think honestly at the end of the day, let's be real.

Is there ever going to be a better person for the job of Wonder Woman than Gal Gadot? No. There's not. There never will be. No. And it's the curse of someone really nailing... Oh, Meryl Streep.

Oh, Meryl Streep. Oh, Meryl Streep could do it. You're right, Dean, now that you say that. And I think she could be available. True, she could do a great Superman as well. She could, actually, now that you say that. And I think she could be available. True. She could do a great Superman as well. She could, actually. Now that you say that. Joker, you need a new Joker?

Meryl Streep. Yeah, she'd be great as that. You know, she could play Deadpool if she wanted to. There you go. That's the latest live out of Los Angeles with our Hollywood correspondent, Dean McCarthy. Bree and Clint. Clint, sometimes I have random thoughts and the joy about being a radio announcer is we have a show where we can put these thoughts out there and have these questions answered.

Yeah, that's a little bit of abusive privilege, you know, like just to use the radio show as kind of like your own personal therapy to go, is this weird? This thing that I'm thinking about? Is this weird? So the question I want to ask today is about financial advice. No, I'm just kidding. No, I am not in the studio at the moment. I am at a secret location and I went into a shop the other day and they had like, you know, those souvenir-y type things where you have like a key ring and it has people's names on it?

Dream World has a lot of them. You can get like a cup from and it has people's names on it. Dream World has a lot of them. You can get like a cup from Movie World that has your name on it. They have a lot of them in Rotorua. I've seen a lot of them there. Any high-frequency tourist place has the spinning rack with these things on it. Key ring is the big one. You're right. Yeah, and a bunch of different products.

I'm someone who's always struggled to find my real name spelling on these things. Not often they have it. As in your full name, Brianna? Yeah. Normally it's with one N or it's with an E.

Like normally it's not my actual spelling so I can't buy the randomly misspelled one. We were in Whangamata over Christmas and we went to the local like shop thingy, emporium thing called Sonny's down there and they had a rack with things with people's names printed on them but the item

was reusable grocery bags. Random? Yeah, random, eh? Like, that's the thing and it had a motivational quote and then it had your name written on there. I was like, I don't hey like that's the thing and it had a motivational quote and then it had your name written on there i was like i don't know if that's i don't know if that's the trinket that i want my name emblazoned on but okay i guess you know it's yours was the what was the motivational uh motivational quote uh one trip one trip one trip yeah carry them all carry them one trip yeah

uh no so the question i was thinking about this because I was like, imagine if you had the most unique name in the world. Like I'm talking so unique that you'd never heard anyone else have the same name as you. Right. And because you would never have found any of those type of things with your name on it. And you would have saved a lot of money buying that pointless crap. But you would have saved a lot of time rifling through the shelf trying to find it as well. Because you just go,

of course, my name isn't on there. It's too unique. Yeah. And this is the question. This is what I want to ask our audience this afternoon. I'm so excited about this. I want to know, is there someone listening? I bet there could be a few people where you believe you were the only person with your name. Yeah, I like this. I like this idea. You believe it's so unique. You've never met another person with the same name as you and you think you're the only one. I've already had a text in from someone that said, yep, my name is Kelda and my name is not on anything. Yeah, Kelda would not be on anything.

Yeah. I've never heard the name Kelda before. That's a good one. My son's name is Brayson. Brayson. Okay, yeah. Brayson? No, I don't think I have heard that before.

We are looking at verging into made-up name territory, you know? Yeah. Brayson, I don't think I have heard that before. So this is the question. We are looking at verging into made-up name territory, you know? No, I reckon people will be legit. We'll be able to tell because we want you to call 0800-DIAL-ZM. Do you think you are the only person with your name? It's so unique, no one else has it. We're getting a lot of messages from teachers. We did a name-based thing earlier this week where the teachers piped up

and were like, oh, this is our bread and butter. And other teachers come through and said, I'm a teacher and I have a student called Honey Lalo in my class. Oh, that's unique. Haven't heard that. I haven't heard that about. Honey Lalo. Someone just texted her and they said, Kaifa, pronounced Kaifa.

Yeah, parents made it up when I was born. I haven't heard that name before. They made it up? Yeah. Doesn't it sound made up? It sounds like it could be a real name. Someone else said, hey, my friend's name is Genesis. Never heard that on anyone else before.

Nah, there are a few Genesis around, I think. Have you heard a few Genesis? Yeah, some named after the band, some named after the book and the Bible. It's hard to know which way the parents were springing with it. I've definitely heard a few Genesis. Yeah. Let's go to our... Yeah? That same person then text

again and said, and my great uncle's name is Knob. Okay. Well, I'm lost on that one. I don't know any. I don't know any knobs. Well, I know a few knobs, but I don't know anyone called Knob. That's real. That is brilliant.

Welcome to the show, caller number one. Hello, caller number one. Hi. You think you might have a name that nobody else has? What is it? I've got two. My first name is Jazza. J-A-Z-H-R and then my second

name is Rince. R-E-N-C-E. Jazza Rince. That's like a famous sounding name. Is it a real name or did your parents make it up? My dad made it up. So my dad took all the letters out of my brother's and sister

and my mum's name and then they put a Z in there and he just went with the noise. He's a musician. And then my granddad's called Robert, so they got the R from that and my nana's name's Florence, so they took the E and C off that and got that. Jeje Rents. I was going to say, I bet your dad is a creative.

And did you say he's a musician? Yeah, he was a musician, yeah. Yeah, I knew it. He goes, babe, we should get creative about this. We could do this. I write songs. How hard can it be? Your mum is.

And my sister is called Jatel, J-A-T-E-L-L. Also made up? Yeah. Also made up. How's it been going through life with the name Jezerince? Because you would have to spell it every time you called the fish and chip shop, every time you made a booking, every time you introduced yourself to somebody. Yeah, well, I used to get called Jar Jar Binks at school.

Yeah, that's what I get from it. Oh, yeah, it does sound like that. And so for like all of school, I just went with Jeze. And then when I got to like in high school, one of my teachers was like, why don't we just call you Jez? And I was like, yeah, Jez. So now I just, when people ask my name, I'm like, it's Jez. It's Jez.

Yeah. Short for Jez. Okay, thanks, Jez. Good to talk to you. No worries. Thanks. Thanks, mate. Bye. Yeah, very unique there. I don't think I've ever heard that name before. Who else is on the line? Let's go to caller number two. Thanks, mate. Bye. Yeah, very unique there. I don't think I've ever heard that name before. Who else is on the line? Let's go to caller number two. G'day.

Caller number two, you think you have the world's most unique, the only one with this name. What is your name? My name is M-A, like the month of May twice, but it's spelt M-E-M-E, like me. Your name is May May, but it's spelt Meme. Yes. Wow.

Whoa, that is unique. Is that like, is that a real name or your parents made it up? No, it's a Pacific Island, a Scottish name. It's a family name. So it's a Pacific Island Scottish name. Yeah. What part of the Pacific did the Scots settle in? Well, from the Gilbert and Ellis Islands,

in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Okay, wow. Right. Yeah. So interesting. But my whole family, pretty much, we never get to find anything with our name up. My dad, who's called John.

Yeah, right. You would have been totally fine up until 2012 when memes were invented. Up until then... I keep getting asked why I'm named after a meme, and I have to explain that I'm older than the internet. I'm not. Oh, my God.

You're the first meme. Exactly. The original. You're the original meme. The OG. I should change it to the OG. Yeah, okay. But it's spelt meme, but it's pronounced Maymay.

Maymay. Okay, thank you, Maymay. You're right up there with the most unique names we've heard. We've got one more person on the phone. Caller number three. They're calling on behalf of their husband, okay? Caller number three, what's your husband's name? Oh, it's Setti, S-E-T-T-I.

Setti. Setti, yeah. He's from Finland, but he doesn't know any other Finns with the name. Right. Interesting. But is it a Finnish name? Has he researched it? He doesn't think it is, but they pronounce it in a Finnish accent like it is.

Can you pronounce it in a Finnish accent for us? It's Sette. Sette. Sette. Yeah. The only inconvenience I've had personally is when I ask Google to call him and it says it's calling the local city council. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. Correct me if I'm wrong. It kind of sounds like uno, dos, tres, cuatro, cinco, seis, sete, oto. It sounds like a number. Yeah, Spanish. Yeah, cuatro, cinco, seis, siete, ocho. It sounds like a number. Yeah, Spanish. Yeah, I guess it could. He often says that it's like the couch, like a settee. That's what I got from it.

He's like a settee. Yeah. Yeah, that's what he does. All right. Well, it's definitely unique. It's different. It's noise. We like it.

Thank you, caller number three. We appreciate the call. No worries. See you. Thanks, caller three. Someone on the text machine says they know someone called Alfresco. Like the dining. I bet they like to sit outside.

Yeah, I reckon too. Bree and Clint. It's time for a round of, oh no, Claudia, I've lost the intro, but what's the plot? Claudia, this is a- You're going to have to do it manually. This is a disaster. Let's see if Clint can remember it. Are you ready?

No, that means we've got... And go. Once upon a time, there was a girl who was bad at lots of stuff. You can't... How many times have you heard this? She was quite good at guessing movie plot lines. That was her big skill. This is...

Beautiful, sunny Christchurch. Not home alone there in Christchurch, are you, Macaulay? I've not heard that

one before. That one's fresh. Well, it is a movie guessing game, so it's kind of par for the course. Here's how this is going to work, Macaulay. You're going to buzz in with your name when you think you know the movie plotline that I'm reading. If you can get two of them right before three hours, you'll get the hundred bucks, okay? Sounds good to me. Have a good day, Macaulay.

Our theme today, because Ed Sheeran is making his way around New Zealand with shows in Auckland and Wellington tonight, and he's finally admitted that our chocolate here in New Zealand is good. We will be doing movies starring Gingers. I thought you were going to say starring Ed Sheeran. I was like, that's going to be niche. He's been in a couple of movies. But no, we will not be doing Ed Sheeran movies.

Here we go. Good luck to both of you. Movie starring gingers number one. In the fairy tale land of Andalasia is what I'm going to go with. Young Giselle Frolics with her woodland pals. Brie.

Brave. Brave's correct. Yeah, well done. Brave had to be in there. Macaulay, have you seen Brave? Of course I have. You've got to be quick on the draw for this, don't you? You really do.

Nice work, Macaulay. Thank you very much. Time for a birthday banger. Alright, here it is, your birthday banger for Thursday. You guys call us, tell us your birthdays. We figure out what was the number one song on your 16th and then we're going to play one of those bangers. Let's

start with Grace. Hi, Grace. Let's start with Grace. Hi, Grace. G'day, Grace. Hi. How's it going? How's your week been out of 10, Grace? You know what? It's been a bloody 10 this week.

Okay, good. Well, let's cap off your 10 out of 10 week with a birthday banger. What's your birthday, Grace? 23rd of August, 1999.

She's in very good spirits. Let's go to Lauren. Hi, Lauren.ening your week, Grace. Okay, wait there. She's in very good spirits.

Let's go to Lauren. Hi, Lauren. G'day, Lauren. How are you going? Yeah, good, thank you. How's your week been out of 10? Probably about an eight. It's real hot in Christchurch at the moment, so yeah. Oh, Lauren, send some of that heat our way, would you?

Yeah, I'm about to get a frozen coat. Oh, Lauren, send some of that heat our way, would you? Yeah, I'm about to get a frozen coat. Oh, Lauren. Surely that's got to bump it up to an eight and a half. There are 1.4 million people in Auckland listening to this right now going, I think Lauren's having a summer. I think she might actually be having a summer. Wait, is it summer? Interesting.

Hey, mate, what's your birthday? The 29th of October, 1992. All right, that means you were 16, Lauren, in 2008. Back then, this had a number one hit. T.I. And Whatever You Like. What do you reckon, Lauren? Yeah, yeah, that's a good song.

That's a banger. Bit of a banger, Lauren. King of the South, T.I. Okay, one more. Let's do it for Erica. Kia ora, Erica. Hello, Erica. Hi, how are you?

Good, thanks. I'm going to ask you the same question. Out of 10, how's your week been? It's been pretty good. I'm in Dunedin, so we've been having plenty of hot weather. But I'm a kindergarten teacher, so everyone's back at kindy now. And it's been a full-on week. So?

I bet it has. Eight or nine? Yeah, I would go probably still a 10. I work with amazing people. Yeah, good stuff. Good on you, Erica. What's your birthday? 24th of June, 1994.

All right, that means you were 16 in 2010. And Erica, let me take you back to your 16th birthday. This would have been number one. I love these guys. You get the naked and famous Famous and Youngblood, Erica. Yeah, that's another good song. I actually like all three of them today. Yeah, they're all pretty good, aren't they?

That's got real movie vibes for me. Big movie vibes. Huge millennial anthem. Wait there, Erica. We need to decide between these. Oh, that's really hard today to decide between those three songs. Yeah, I'm torn. Omi Cheerleader for me. I like Omi Cheerleader.

It's got the vibes. Is it? Yeah, it's upbeat. It's different. You don't hear it very often either. I've always liked that song. I think I'm going Youngblood. Really? The Naked and Famous, yeah. I feel if I go to a split vote, that's what's going to win because we're going to Claude and she's going to choose. You get to choose from all

three. What's the winner of birthday banger today, Claude? This is a very easy decision for me today. I'm back in Brie with this. Young blood all the way. Let's go. Good vibes for a Thursday. The Millennial Girls have teamed up. And Erica, you've won birthday

banger. Congratulations. Awesome. Thank you, guys. This is an absolute banger. So I'm not mad about this. Brant Clint, here's your birthday banger. Congratulations. Awesome. Thank you guys. This is an absolute banger. So I'm not mad about this. Brianne Clint, here's your birthday banger from 2010 on ZM. I already love this topic.

This is such a good topic. I was talking to a friend of mine and she said she'd been dating this guy for a little while. The first time she went over to his house, it all looked good. She went into his bedroom and he had about eight or nine fish tanks in there. He was quite taken aback and was like, why do you need all these fish tanks? And he loves them apparently.

And so I'm asking the question, 0800DIALZM, what was the red flag you saw in their bedroom? Shout out to this text we received about the fish tanks in the bedroom. Bree and Clint, I think it might be sink or swim for the poor guy with all the aquariums. Yeah, could be. I don't know if he's going to get a hook, line and sinker with the fish tanks.

Could be an uphill battle. Let's rip into these. There are too many good red flags. There's so many good. What's the red flag in the bedroom? You saw it early on and you were just like, oh, that's a little bit off. This person texted and said, men are impossible.

One pillow each side of the bed, very thin. They do not care about comfort. Red flag. Yeah, you need more pillows or you need two really good ones. You need to spend a bit of money on the pillows, lads. Someone texted her and they said the red flag for me in the

bedroom was a custom-made adult-sized dummy that he used to sleep with. Excuse me, what? Excuse me, what? Uh, what? Excuse me, what? He had an adult custom-made adult pacifier. You heard correct.

Mama. Mama. Mama. Someone said they went home with somebody who had 12 lava lamps. 12 lava lamps? God. They must have grew up in the 70s. What about this text?

This is so good. I was out here believing that this guy needed a bunch of extra small plastic bags for his button collection. Disclaimer, he didn't collect buttons as I found out later. What did he collect? Oh, those little plastic bags. Right, enough said. Someone said the first time I slept over at his house, I walked

into his room and realised he sleeps on a mattress on the floor. He saw no issue because to him it was more comforting than a bed. We've been together for nine years now. We're living in our own house and safe to say we now sleep on a bed which I paid for. Good on you

for, you know, that's charity work you're doing and you're helping people out there. Someone said their red flag was the Anna Hot Wheels collection. I wonder how many. Like there's a limit, I think, of when it gets a bit strange. But, you know. Right. 12 lava lamps.

Let's get some calls on. We're going to talk to Phoebe. What was the red flag you saw in their bedroom, Phoebe? So it's actually my current boyfriend. Right. When I first went to his house, he had like three photos of Messi, the football player. Okay.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. And that was all right. But over the three years we've been together, it's grown to his whole room is a full shrine. Oh, no. I don't know about it. He's got, yeah, more photos of me than me. He's got trophies and he's booked in for a tattoo next week.

He's obsessed. Can I just ask, how was this most recent Football World Cup for you in your relationship, Phoebe? Sorry, what was that? How did he handle the World Cup? Oh, he went to it. Oh, he is a big fan. Obviously, Phoebe, you're more a Cristiano Ronaldo fan,

and that's why it's weird. Let's talk to Todd. Hi, Todd. Hi, Todd. How's it going? We're good. Good's talk to Todd. Hi, Todd. Hi, Todd. How's it going? We're good. Good, thanks, Todd. What was the red flag you saw in the bedroom, Todd?

So I met this girl, and we ran to her house, and she had this cat that, like, didn't go outside of her bedroom, so it done number ones, twos, and the, like, little litter tray. And she fed it, like, dried fish, and it would, like, take the fish and like hide under the bed and all that kind of jazz and then like the cat started like peeing on the bed and she was like looking up remedies for like to stop the cat peeing on the bed and she read like feed it on the bed sort of thing and i didn't and then like obviously when i went over there um

and you lie down and you feel like crumbs on you sort of thing. Oh, no, Todd. Oh, no, this is on out. This makes me feel ill, like honestly. Did the room just stink of like cat wee? Yeah, it wasn't well. Yuck. No, it was not good.

Fair enough. No, I'm going to cry. Also. I think you made the correct call, Todd. Thank you. Also, let the cat out of the bloody bedroom. Some people don't. Some people don't. They just won't.

Some people won't. Why not? That's cruel. Someone said the red flag I saw in his room was there was a photo of his rugby team on the wall and my ex was in the photo. I should have run right then, right there. But we've been married for 28 years. Oh, well, it worked out.

There you go. There you go. Someone else said red flag, went back to a girl's house. She was 18 and I was 20. She had bunk beds. Turned out her flatmates were her parents. Fun. Fun bunk beds. Do you want top or bottom? And then

you'd be like, wait, what are you talking about? And then you'd be like, wait, what are you talking about? And then be like, no, wait, what are you talking about? Finally, Amy, what was the red flag that you saw in their bedroom? Hi there. I just want to point out I never actually made it to the bedroom because of this red flag. But it was in the bedroom. He sent me a selfie of his face. and then in the background I could see this dirty

old pillow that didn't even have a pillow slip over it. And that was just enough to put me off talking to him anymore. Oh, but Amy, he couldn't get rid of that. That's the pillow he's had since he was seven. That's the special pillow. It's got all the memories on it. Why didn't he have bedding on? Hey, can I say, and maybe all girls do this, I don't think guys would be smart enough to look in the background of a selfie.

That's pretty good detective work from you. No, that's good from you, Amy. You dodged a bullet before you even got to the first date. Yeah, exactly. I'll keep doing that. Like, that's a real basic, isn't it, Amy? They need to have a pillowcase. Like, come on.

Yeah. Well, if it's a nice, fresh, white pillow, then maybe not. But not an old, dirty one. Oh, no. That's what we were deciding. The minimum standard for Kiwi men dating in 2023, pillowcase. You've got to have a pillowcase. There's a lot of memories on that pillow, Amy.

Bree and Clint. Clint, would you say you're a sarcastic person no how's that how's that i mean it was decent it was decent no i don't i don't try to be a sarcastic person what do they say sarcasm is the lowest form of wit so i think people like if you are a sarcastic person, some people it just comes naturally and they can't help it. You know, whereas some people do it on purpose. Some people do it out of awkwardness as well.

I do get that, but no. I don't think you're a particularly sarcastic person either. Oh good, I'll take that as a compliment. I think you're too paranoid to be sarcastic. Yeah, i think does that person i know they said that were they being truthful were they being sarcastic and if i did say something sarcastic to someone i'd be like oh i do feel bad i hope they know what i mean i hope they know that i was being sarcastic i hope they know it was a joke it's just sarcasm yeah i thought i saw saw this thing doing the rounds where people are testing

how sarcastic they are with a really simple game and I thought you and I could give it a go. Okay, right. And the producers can rate you and I at the end of who is the most sarcastic. Okay, Claude, that's your job. You'll be deciding out of Bree and I who is the most sarcastic, okay? Oh, all right.

Not you, okay? It's Claudia. We found her. She is the most sarcastic on the show. How does it work? So here's how it works. I've sent you seven different things that you might say in the real world, and a lot of these can sound really sarcastic if you say it in the wrong way.

Okay. So the game is to say it in the least sarcastic tone you can. Okay. Right. Got it. All right. So the first one is that's great. So do you want to go first or do you want me to go first?

Why don't I just run through the list and then you can run through the list. Okay. Go. Okay. All right. You go first. That's great. Good for you. Have fun All right, you go first. That's great. Good for you.

Have fun. Oh, my God, these do sound sarcastic. You sound so sarcastic. Oh, what a shame. Yeah, good luck with that. Sounds thrilling. Yeah, good luck with that. Oh, I put the same one twice.

Sorry about that. Okay, yep, that's me. I'm through the sarcasm list. Okay, all right. Well, I know how I feel about how you went, my turn. You're right. I wasn't trying to sound sarcastic with those. Give it a hoon.

It's quite hard, eh? Try and be as genuine as you can. Okay, I'm going to do my best here. I need to, okay, think about it. Here we go. That's great. Good for you. Have have fun what a shame good luck with that sounds thrilling okay that's your last i feel like i know what the answer is going to be

claudia who's who is the most sarcastic out of brie and i oh breeze was a lot more genuine so plan yours was almost passive-aggressive. Yeah, that doesn't mean anything. It just means she's better at lying than I am. She's a bigger bullshit artist than I am. She's able to fake it more than I can. Yeah, who really won here? Mate, well, I am the woman of the two,

so we are good friends. The Welsh Rugby Football Union have banned a certain song from being played inside their stadiums, and it's this one. I knew it. I knew it. The most overplayed stadium song in the world. No, it's not this one, but it probably should be, right?

I mean, you know, this one could go. It's had its time in the sun, I think. No, the Wales Rugby Football Union have banned, like, one of the godfathers of Welsh music, Tom Jones, a certain Tom Jones song from being played at any of their rugby games inside the stadiums. Sex Bomb. Yeah, Sex Bomb.

Sex Bomb, Sex Bomb, you're a sex bomb. Too sexy. You know what they've said? No, that's not Sex bomb, sex bomb. You're a sex bomb. Too sexy. Give it to me when I need it. You know what they've said? No, that's not the reason, surely. No, it's not that either. God, I'm so many shit jokes now. You're not going to believe me when I tell you what it is.

Can you just tell me what it bloody is? Okay, so the Tom Jones song that the Welsh Rugby Football Union have said, no more playing that song at our games. It's this Tom Jones song. It's a classic. It is a classic. It's a sing-along anthem. And Welsh people can sing, man. They really get it going.

They love it. The reason is that in this 1968 Tom Jones banger, he describes murdering his ex-girlfriend with a knife and waiting for the police to arrive. And they've said that's no longer appropriate. Have a listen. This is the part of the lyrics that people are really upset about. At break of day when that man drove away I was waiting

I crossed the street to her house and she opened the door She stood there laughing I felt the knife in my hand And she laughed no more

Yeah, look, it's not the best. I can see what they're saying. Although, it's just a song. Tom Jones didn't actually murder anybody. It is just a song Tom Jones didn't actually murder anybody It is just a song And if you think that a song like that has to go Then we have to take a serious look at the ZM playlist Because we play songs like that on ZM right now

Have you listened to the lyrics of Scissor's new music, Brie? No, which one? Have a listen to this song that we're currently playing Called Kill Bill I might kill my ex, not the best idea. His new girlfriend's next, how I can hear. I might kill my ex, I still love him though. Rather be in jail than alone Yeah, when you're highlighted in such that way, it really stands out, doesn't it? Yeah, look, I'm not here to campaign to keep Tom Jones' music or Scissor's music for that point anywhere.

It's not my fight. I'm not interested in wading into that conversation. But at the end of the day, both of these people are just songs and neither of them actually killed anybody, did they? No, well, that's true. And, I mean, if we're looking at those two songs, we really need to look at the Macarena then too. Yeah, that's a song that I could stand for being banned.

Yeah, that would be fine with me. Yeah, you know? Yeah. That's the end of the show, everybody. Was that on mic? What? I said I'm a utility player. Oh, I don't know if it was, but are you a utility player?

Yeah, we were just talking about that song, Girls is Players Too, and I said I'm a utility. You're a bench warmer. Yeah, bench warmer. You're an impact player. You know, when I played a lot of softball, there's a position called the DH, and

no, it's not the dickhead. It's the designated hitter. Not dirty hoe? No, not that either, but there was plenty of those things going around. But essentially, the role is you're the designated hitter, so you literally sit on the bench for the whole game

until like a very important moment where you have to come off the bench and take someone's turn at bat and hit, right? Yeah, right. It's so much pressure, and sometimes you don't even make it onto the field, but, you know, it's a good time. You feel pretty special. Yeah, but also what an easy ride. You just sit there drinking free Gatorade most of the time,

and then you get up and swing the bat three times. Pretty good. That's about it. Yeah, I mean, I loved it because I love to sit down, so it fit me well. Your favourite part of sport is sitting down. Yeah. That's the end of the show, everybody.

Thanks for joining us. No Bree today. She's off doing special business for the next couple of weeks, actually. So our friend Maddie McLean is going to fill in on the show. No funny business, you two. I know you get up to a bit of mischief. Yeah, that's right. Worry about yourself, mate. Fake tan looks

good, by the way. What do you mean? It does. This isn't fake? Your fake tan looks good. Whatever the secret thing is that you're up to that you're off doing at the moment for the next couple of weeks, your fake tan looks good. Whatever the secret thing is that you're up to that you're off doing at the moment for the next couple of weeks, your fake tan looks good. Thank you. I appreciate that. Now let's move on.

We'll catch Bree back in a couple of weeks and we'll catch you back tomorrow. Have a good night, everybody. See you later. Bye, guys. ZM. Feed Clint. On Insta, Facebook, TikTok and live weekdays from 3 on ZM. Feed by KFC. Get the full menu delivered to your door with the KFC app. Play. ZM.
