Starting point is 00:00:00 The ZM Podcast Network. Hi everybody, welcome to the Brilliant Clint Podcast. In this job, quite regularly, we get sent stuff. Oh yeah, shout out to Rhiannon. Oh yeah, that's really cool. I wasn't even talking about that delivery, but yeah, definitely shout out to Rhiannon. Big time podcast listener. You probably heard us talk about before, she sends me Aussie treats from back home. And she sent another batch of stuff and she sent everyone in the show stuff. She sent me my own bag of caramel koalas.
Starting point is 00:00:32 We love you, Rhiannon. Thank you so much for making our day. I can't wait to make my wife use them as bargaining chips, the caramel koalas. What, for the kids? No, they're not touching them. No, for my wife. Oh, you want a caramel koalas. What, for the kids? No, they're not touching them. No, for my wife. Oh. Oh, you want a caramel koala, do you?
Starting point is 00:00:50 This is going to end in disaster, isn't it? Well, you should go back to work then. You hear me? I've been doing all the work. You just sit around doing nothing. Do we just leave her to it? Yeah. I want nothing.
Starting point is 00:01:04 I want nothing to do with that. Get it out, Bree. I started it. I retract nothing to do with it. Get it out, Brie. I started it. I retract the statement. I will share the caramel koalas. What I was going to say was, apart from the package from Rhiannon, we got sent this book today on sustainable living. Did you see the thing that came with it?
Starting point is 00:01:18 Is it a hanky? Yeah. Yeah. But because it's, you ever look at that hanky, because it's a book on sustainable living. Is that what I think it is? It's a secondhand hanky, because it's a book on sustainable living. Is that what I think it is? It's a secondhand hanky. Oh, no. I thought you were going to say it's a family towel.
Starting point is 00:01:33 Look, I love sustainability and I'm all for doing things to help the planet. Love it. There's just a few things that I feel like I don't think I'll ever be on board with Second hand or recycling And that's toilet paper Yep And hankies Well that's the list, that's toilet paper and hankies
Starting point is 00:01:54 What about undies? Undies no Socks? I could come around on socks Could you? Not underwear Bras, yes. Yeah. Hats. Ooh.
Starting point is 00:02:08 Hats. I think the list is longer than you realise. My point is that this book by Ethically Kate, she's a New Zealand sustainability content creator. She sent out these hankies. I think time has moved on from the hanky. Yeah, it's not a super... It's not even a thing that I think of when I think sustainability that I should go and from the hanky yeah it's not a super it's not even a thing that i think of
Starting point is 00:02:26 when i think sustainability that i should go and get a hanky and i'm a big nose blower as well what she is saying is tissues yeah contribute a lot to landfill yeah right um so she's saying bring back the hanky i think which when you think that tissues are part of the problem, doesn't that make you realise that the problem is so big it feels unsolvable? Like, if we have to even stop using tissues, then... I think men are more in trouble with that one than us. If you use a hanky, you'd blow your nose at the beginning of the day. I know the rude joke you're trying to make there.
Starting point is 00:03:02 You use more toilet paper than us. What? Do you think Taylor Swift has a hanky if she's using your private jet so much? This is a great point. That would offset it. This is a great point. She's doing her bit. She has a private jet, but she uses a hanky. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:16 On the private jet, there is no toilet paper. Yeah. There is a family cloth. The family cloth on the private jet. On board Taylor Swift. Which means, yeah, you're right. Totally offset. Yeah. I will never, ever use toilet paper where someone else has wiped their bum hole with it.
Starting point is 00:03:33 I will do anything else. No one's asking you to do that, by the way. Not even Taylor Swift. You wouldn't reuse Taylor Swift's toilet paper. I don't care to wipe my bum hole. What about Idris Elba? Now you're talking. No, I'm just kidding.
Starting point is 00:03:45 I wouldn't. I wouldn't. I wouldn't. I'm all for the beeswax wraps and the no plastic bags and the reusable. All for it. The moon cups even. On board with the moon cups and the period undies. But your moon cup.
Starting point is 00:03:59 But, yeah. Your personal moon cup. My personal. All right. Hey, we've got to go. Enjoy the podcast, everybody. We'll see you tomorrow. Bye.

Also on the show today, we are going to decipher what is the hottest Siri voice. Yeah, we talked about this the other day. You hadn't even heard the Irish Siri before.
Starting point is 00:04:59 I don't think I've heard... I think I've heard two. Yeah. Two different ones. I didn't realise there was a whole big world out there of Siri voices. Irish Siri's pretty hot. Do you reckon we're setting people's Siris off right now? No, because you didn't put the hey in front of it.
Starting point is 00:05:14 Siri. Hey Siri. No, as long as you don't say that. Oh, now I would have. As long as you don't say that, you won't annoy people. As long as I don't say what? You know what it is. Okay.

Starting point is 00:09:16 you've ever had a horrible birthday? Oh. I don't remember ever having a horrible birthday. I do have etched into my mind, and I hope my mum has recovered from this, the birthday where she organised a pool party, me and my friends around at the house.
Starting point is 00:09:31 Fun. She came out with a birthday cake that she'd baked, put one of those frilly edges around the outside. Remember those plastic frilly edges used to go on the cake? Caught fire. Cake catches fire. How does the cake catch, is the cake flammable? The frilly bit drops to the ground, hits the carpet, catches fire.
Starting point is 00:09:47 Was it a part of the show? Yeah, I think mum could have passed it off as that. It was a part of the show. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But it just added to it. It was a very memorable birthday after that. Exactly. Look, you remember it now.
Starting point is 00:09:57 Yeah, exactly right. I think the worst birthday I ever had was when I found out one of my very good friends was hooking up with my ex. Oh, that's not a good birthday. And he called me and told me he wasn't coming to my birthday party because he was hanging out with my ex. So this is your friend was hooking up with your ex and you found out on your birthday. Because he told me he couldn't come to my birthday dinner
Starting point is 00:10:24 because he was hanging out with my ex. To be fair, your birthday? Because he told me he couldn't come to my birthday dinner because he was hanging out with my ex. To be fair, your birthday is a couple of days after New Year's, so stuff happens. What? Where friends hook up with your ex? Romantic connections are forged at midnight. No, not stuff happens. It was one of my best mates.
Starting point is 00:10:41 Not stuff happens. Well, you should be happy for him then. But yeah, I can see you. They'll make a pretty bad birthday. What do you mean a pretty bad birthday? It was devastating. I don't think I even went to my own birthday dinner because I was so distraught.
Starting point is 00:10:53 Anyway. That seems dramatic, okay? That seems quite dramatic. You think that's being dramatic? Yeah, I do. You've obviously never been through heartache. Look, a woman has spotted out. I hope you informed all the guests that you wouldn't be attending the birthday dinner.
Starting point is 00:11:07 Oh, no, that's who I was worried about mainly. They were getting a free dinner anyway. Right. I'm pretty sure they went and I paid for their dinner. You just didn't show up to your own birthday dinner? No, I probably did. Very drunk. Look, a woman has spoken out about the worst birthday she's ever had
Starting point is 00:11:21 because she said she'd been dating this guy for about nine or ten months and she was very excited because it was like a big milestone birthday for her. Like a round number. I think it was her 30th from what she's talking about here. I think it was her 30th birthday and she said she was very, very disappointed with the lack of effort her new boyfriend put in for her birthday. Okay.
Starting point is 00:11:47 What did he do? So first she said he got her as a gift, a random joke card as the card. Okay. Not bad. That had no relevance to her or their relationship and just seemed like it was something he had lying around. Okay. That's what she said, but she doesn't know that for sure.
Starting point is 00:12:09 He got her a necklace that broke after 10 minutes of wearing it. Oh, okay. She said it looked quite cheap and I asked him where he got it from and he said he got it for $24 from Amazon. Okay, all right. Or Amazon, at least he's put in a bit. That takes some time to arrive. It takes one day. Does it? Yeah. Oh. Well, in America. I'm assuming this is America. Okay, all right. Or Amazon, at least he's put in a bit. That takes some time to arrive. Takes one day.
Starting point is 00:12:26 Does it? Yeah. Oh. Well, in America. I'm assuming this is America. Right, okay. Yeah, okay. And then he also took her out for dinner and then asked her to split the bill.
Starting point is 00:12:36 Which isn't... On her birthday. Isn't what you should do on someone's birthday. You shouldn't ask her to split the bill if it's a date anytime, let alone on her birthday. This is weird because nine months is long enough into a relationship
Starting point is 00:12:50 that the first birthday you're together is a chance to really show off. Absolutely. And be like, I'm going to make this girl feel special. And he's blown it. I'm going to do something. He's blown it. Because to be honest, I think the only thing he really had to do was take her out for a nice dinner and pay for her. And give her some flowers.
Starting point is 00:13:05 And give her some flowers and you're done. Yeah. You know? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Not that hard. You don't even have to spend any money. You just have to find a way to make her feel special. Yeah, or cook her a really nice meal.
Starting point is 00:13:14 You know, put some effort in. That'd be nice. I just love thinking about them going up to the till at the end when the guy goes... Are you paying or am I paying? I paid last time. It's your turn to pay. The waiter's like, so one bill? And he's like, no, no, we'll split it, please.
Starting point is 00:13:27 Yeah, no. It's her birthday, so I'll pay for mine. But she can pay for her own drinks. Yeah, right. I thought we could ask people this afternoon, 0800 dials at M, when did you have a really horrible birthday? Maybe you got fired. On your birthday?
Starting point is 00:13:45 On your birthday. Right. got fired. On your birthday? On your birthday. Right. Yeah, these things happen. Maybe you found out that your cousin was hooking up with your boyfriend. Okay, yeah. Maybe you found out, oh, that's a bit grim, isn't it? Are you going to say a death in the family? I mean, it happens.
Starting point is 00:14:01 Maybe a pet passed away. I don't know. Bree and Clint. What about you, Blake? I heard it was your mum's birthday and it went wrong. Yeah, so my mum was coming home from picking us up from school and then she ran over a cat and then she died. Who died, the cat or?
Starting point is 00:14:20 The cat. The cat. Oh, no, and was it your mum's birthday, Blake? Yeah, it was my mum's birthday. Was she sad? Yeah. I bet she was. Did you get her a nice gift to cheer her up?
Starting point is 00:14:34 No. You didn't even get her a present? No. Just an idea. A new cat might be a good one. Yeah. Blake had a little chuckle then. Oh, your poor mum.
Starting point is 00:14:45 Sorry, Blake. I feel very awkward. I don't really know how to handle this. You poor thing. Hey, it could be worse. That's what you should have said to her, Blake. Could be worse. How could it be worse?
Starting point is 00:14:55 Well, it could have been. Actually, don't answer that. Yeah, good point. Okay, let's go talk to Ashley. Hi, Ashley. Hi, Ashley. Hello. Your 30th birthday was a bad one, Ash.
Starting point is 00:15:04 Why? Yeah, my son got COVID three days before my birthday. And then two days before my birthday, I got it. And then the day before, my partner got it. The trilogy, Ash. All my plans, everything.
Starting point is 00:15:19 Which means you had to blow your birthday candles out with a mask on. Yeah, well, my dad actually got my cake and KFC sent to the house. Oh. Nice, Ash. Which was cool. Yeah. But, yeah, we had Kelly Tarlton's.
Starting point is 00:15:33 My sisters had all these plans. Cancel it. COVID's hit. No good. Uh-oh. And it was your 30th too, Ash. What a disappointment. I reckon you and a lot of people.
Starting point is 00:15:44 So I spent my 30th birthday in bed. Yeah, right. But you know what, Ash. What a disappointment. I reckon you and a lot of people. But you know what, Ash? I feel like it was good to set you up for what's to come because it's all downhill in your 30s. Yeah, I get that. Okay, let's talk to Anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hi, how are you going?
Starting point is 00:16:01 We're talking Stinkhairs birthdays. What happened on yours? So two days before my birthday, my boyfriend at the time decided he wanted to break up with me. Okay. But then realised that it was my birthday two days later, so decided he wouldn't. So he came round on my birthday and we had like a family dinner.
Starting point is 00:16:20 My whole family knew what was like discussed beforehand. Hang on, hang on, hang on, hang on. So two days before, had he actually broken up with you? No, he was about to, having the full conversation. Big fight. With you. I've said enough. The conversation was with you. And then he's gone, oh, look at the calendar. Oh, it's your birthday in a couple of days. So what happened at this dinner? So it was just super awkward. My parents were like barely talking or anything and everyone's just shooting looks at each other.
Starting point is 00:16:51 And then so he left and three days later, he like completely broke it off. Yeah, good. Right. That is awkward AF. Did he give you a birthday present? I need to know about the present. What was the present?
Starting point is 00:17:04 He got me a hoodie because he had bought it like way before, like I think a month before. Right, it was re-gifted. He was kind of like, I don't know what to do with this hoodie if I don't give it to her on her birthday. Anonymous, he could have been a real a-hole and broken up with you so he didn't have to give you a present. I know.
Starting point is 00:17:22 I was fully expecting that, not going to lie. Yeah, okay. Well, you're better off anonymous that, not going to lie. Yeah, okay. Well, you're better off anonymous. Bye-bye. Jog on, boyfriend. Zavanna's here. Hi, Zavanna. Hi, Zavanna.
Starting point is 00:17:31 Hi, guys. Hi. Mate, it was your 18th birthday that you had a shocker. What happened? Yeah. So my boyfriend at the time showed up late and then proceeded to bring the one and only friend of his that I hated and was just really rude while he was there. So him and my dad ended up getting into a punch up out of the front of the bar.
Starting point is 00:17:56 Oh, no. Because dad went in to fall like, you've just been so disrespectful. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Protecting his little girl on her 18th birthday. I get it. Yeah. Yeah. And then I was inside, so I didn't actually see that.
Starting point is 00:18:09 And during that somehow, my stepmom knocked her shoulder, and she had a bad shoulder anyway. So she dislocated her shoulder. Okay, yeah. Oh, my God. Two battles on two different fronts, right? Was the ambulance called? They had to leave to go to the hospital.
Starting point is 00:18:19 Yeah. Yeah. Oh, God. And so my only other friend who was 18 as well at my party, we decided to ditch and go to town and just drink. Yeah. And my boyfriend and I broke up just prior to that because, yeah, well. Yeah, right.
Starting point is 00:18:35 Oh, Savannah. Kind of failed at that beforehand. Jeez, chaotic birthday. I imagine your 21st was lit, judging by that. Oh, you know, that was another complete failure and I had another friend who decided to share, like, embarrassing sexual things. Oh, OK.
Starting point is 00:18:50 All right, all right, all right. That's so not called for. At 21st, you know where there's a line and you don't cross the line? Oh, people don't know where the line is anymore. Bree and Clint. Time for the latest. From iHeartRadio.
Starting point is 00:19:03 This is the latest. Live from LA with Dean McCarthy. Dean's here. The world is waiting for Britney to do the Oprah Winfrey sit-down interview, but yesterday, Dean, she dropped 22 minutes of raw, unedited bombshells on YouTube. She sure did, and it
Starting point is 00:19:19 was very, very juicy. So a lot of stuff we've heard before she shared about, you know, when her dad first said, I'm Britney Spears now, you know, which meant that he was now in charge of every aspect of her life. She shared a lot of stuff that we were very familiar with. One thing she did say, as you mentioned, Oprah, during the 22-minute video,
Starting point is 00:19:38 she actually posted a video with no footage, just audio, on her YouTube and then tweeted the link to the YouTube. And it's all deleted now. Britney loves deleting, you know, posting and deleting. But one of the things she said was that she isn't going to do an interview. She said she's been offered interviews. She even mentioned Oprah's name. She said, I've been offered interviews and lots and lots and lots of money.
Starting point is 00:19:57 She said, it's past a sit-down interview now, is what she said. And she kind of went on sharing about how horrific and traumatic her experience was during the 13-year conservatorship. So she said there won't be an open interview, but I don't know. She could change her mind though, Dean. She can change her mind. We've got a clip here, Dean. This is her talking about one of the experiences she had
Starting point is 00:20:19 where she realised her parents did not have her best interests at heart. Have a listen to this. I literally spoke in a British accent to a doctor to prescribe my medication, and three days later, there was a swap team in my home, three helicopters, and I remember my mom's best friend and my two girlfriends, we had a sleepover the night before. They held me down on a gurner.
Starting point is 00:20:47 And again, none of it made sense. Literally, the extent of my madness was playing chess with, when it was playing chase with paparazzi, which is still to this day one of the most fun things I ever did about being famous. It's actually quite hard to decipher a lot of it, to be honest. It is. I'd love to see an interview with Oprah because I feel like Oprah could make quite
Starting point is 00:21:12 a lot of sense. Yeah. With the questions she asked and we could hear. And she could be sensitive at the same time. Yeah, Britney's take on quite a few different things. There you go. That is the latest on Britney with our Hollywood correspondent and Britney expert at Steam McCarthy. Bree and Clint.
Starting point is 00:21:31 Welcome to the Name Game, everybody, where we go head-to-head guessing celebrity names as fast as we can. Bring it on. What are the new rules? I'll explain the new rules once we meet Jessica. Hi, Jessica. Hey, Jess. Hi.
Starting point is 00:21:44 Have you heard the name game before? No. So what I do is I call out a celebrity name, like, for example, I might say Chris, and then one of you might say... You use the name Chris as an example every week. Well, I have to pick a name that's not in the game. Yeah, I know.
Starting point is 00:22:03 It's hard. Chris, you might say... Hemsworth. Exactly right. You say Hemsworth every week. No, I've said Bradley. Chris Bradley. Oh, no, that's a guy that works here.
Starting point is 00:22:15 That's one of the engineers from our work. That would not be an acceptable answer. So, basically, in the past, I've said you need to get two celebrity names before the other person to get the point. This week, we're going to go one for one until you cannot name a celebrity with that name and whoever can't name a celebrity loses the point. Right.
Starting point is 00:22:35 Okay? So it goes my turn, Jessica's turn. Then your turn and then Jessica's turn. Okay. Oh, no. Takes a bit of the heat out of the game. Gives you time to think. Shooker, I'm not going first. Bree will be going first. Oh, no. Takes a bit of the heat out of the game. Gives you time to think. Shocker, I'm not going first.
Starting point is 00:22:45 Brie will be going first. Oh, damn it. And our first celebrity today, Brie, I need you to give me a famous Billie. Eilish. Billie Eilish is good. Jessica, you got a famous Billie for me? Do I answer now? Yes.
Starting point is 00:23:01 Billie Cyrus. Billie Cyrus? Billie Ray Cyrus? Yeah, I'll give you that. Brie, you got a Billy for me? Billy. Billy. Nilly Willy.
Starting point is 00:23:12 Billy Nilly Willy is no good. Billy Bob Thornton. Billy Bob Thornton is a good one. Jessica, you got another Billy for me? Billy Joel. Billy Joel. Brie, you got another Billy for me? Billy Joel. Billy Joel. Great one. Brie, you got another Billy for me?
Starting point is 00:23:26 Billy Bathersby. Billy Bathersby is not one. Damn it. Which means the first point goes to you, Jessica. Well done. God, Jess. For someone who's never played, you're on the money. Okay, next up.
Starting point is 00:23:38 If you can get this one, Jessica, you win the game, by the way. That's all you've got to do. You've just got to get two before Brie does. Next. I thought it was three. Next. I thought it was three. Three? I thought it was three. But hey, you're running the game. No, no, no. You've got to get three.
Starting point is 00:23:53 Jessica, you can start this round. I'd like a famous. Martin. Martin. Martin. Martin Lee. Martin Lee's? Martin Lees? Who is that?
Starting point is 00:24:11 Martin Lees? Wait, Claudia, producer. Isn't he like a... Oh, no, maybe it's not. Claude, we got anything on Martin Lees? If a University of Warwick professor counts. No, it doesn't. Okay, we're going to bomb out on the first round.
Starting point is 00:24:28 On that one, that means it's a point to Brie. That means technically I need to get one. Oh, no, you need to get one. Yeah, if you can get one, you can have the point. Martin Scorsese. Martin Scorsese. Would have accepted Martin Luther King. Chris Martin.
Starting point is 00:24:40 Martin Garrix. Martin Freeman. Martin Henderson from Grey's Anatomy. Okay, one point each. All right. Brie, back to you starting. I'm looking for a famous Ben. Ben.
Starting point is 00:24:55 Not Humphreys, he works here too. Stop naming people that work here. Ben Lummis. Ben Lummis. Good. Jessica, you got a famous Ben for me? Ben Affleck. Ben Affleck.

Starting point is 00:27:20 That'll do it. Jessica, congratulations. You've won yourself 50 KFC chicken dollars in the name game. Controversially, but... Nice work, Jess. You did very well, mate. Very... She was fantastic.
Starting point is 00:27:33 Yeah. She was very good. Apart from that John Wick part. Well, she'd never played before. She didn't know. Something my partner and I like to do is cook on a Sunday afternoon and push ourselves, put some music on. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:49 And spend a bit of time in the kitchen together. A few drinks. A few drinks, a few wines, a few beers. Delightful. Whatever we're feeling like. And on Sunday we were making gnocchi. So we were listening to some music and all of a sudden this classic from Shania Twain came on.
Starting point is 00:28:09 Let's go, girls. And I said, could this be the greatest opening lyric of a song ever? It's very empowering, right? It is. I literally feel like if I was on the couch and it's about 7 o'clock on a Saturday and someone asked me, do you want to go out? I'd probably go, oh, I'm a bit tired.
Starting point is 00:28:32 And if they put this song on. Let's do it. You know, just be keen. It makes you feel something. There's that meme that says, when Shania says, let's go girls, I could kick a door off the hinges. Seriously? It makes you feel like you've got superpowers?
Starting point is 00:28:51 Is it the greatest opening line of a song of all time? Well, that's the conversation we got into and I thought we could have that combo here in the studio. We could all put forward songs that definitely would be in the list. Okay. You know? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:29:06 I'll go first. I think it's very hard to go past Britney Spears. It's Britney, bitch. I mean, it's iconic. Everyone knows it. She's become pretty much known for that opening lyric. It's pretty much her trademark now, isn't it? It is, isn't it?
Starting point is 00:29:25 Yeah, okay. Yeah, Britney's a contender. I think that would be in the mix. Yeah. Anything else? Oh, mate, you can't go past this classic from Gloria Gaynor. Kept thinking I could never live without you by my side But then I spent so many nights thinking how you did me wrong And I grew strong And I learned how to get along
Starting point is 00:29:52 Kikadori! Right there. It's the sort of thing that gets you up straight away, right? It does. Like if you're at a wedding or a birthday party or something like that, straight away those words. And everyone's lip syncing and everyone's doing it. It's great.
Starting point is 00:30:04 What about you? That's why I think for the same reason, this song from The Killers is a contender for the greatest opening lyrics. Alright. Everyone knows it.
Starting point is 00:30:20 It's classic. Everyone knows it. And it builds and it builds and it builds and then it goes. Yeah, definitely in the mix, I think. That. Or this song from Eminem. We'll just let it slip.
Starting point is 00:30:34 Yo. His palms are sweaty. Knees weak, arms are heavy. There's vomit on his sweater already. I mean, it's iconic. It's iconic. Producer Claude, what's the best opening lyrics to a song of all time? See, mine's also going to make you feel something.
Starting point is 00:30:50 I want to feel something, Claude. But not in the way that your songs make you feel. This is what I chose. Hello, darkness, my old friend. I definitely feel something. I've come to talk with you again. How much money do you reckon Simon and Garfunkel have made from this being a meme
Starting point is 00:31:07 in just the last few years? Oh, so much. So much. Then it came back on TikTok. Yeah. I chose also another very memeable song. It's a bit more upbeat than this one, though. There's that meme to this song
Starting point is 00:31:23 where someone literally does kick a door in. Yeah. She was looking kind of dumb with her... Yeah, that works. Producer Megan, what's the greatest opening lines to a song of all time? I think this one needs no introduction. It is so mixed a lot. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:31:42 Becky, look at her butt. It is so big. She looks like one of those rap guys, girlfriends. Everyone knows it. Yeah. And it's so different and weird. Isn't it? It's just talking. I know. Yeah, okay. What else, Megan? What's another one? My second
Starting point is 00:32:00 one is going to be the Fresh Prince theme song. Now this is a story all about how my life got flipped, turned upside down, and I'd like to take a minute, just sit right there. I'll tell you how I became the prince of a town called Bel-Air. Everyone knows it. Yep.
Starting point is 00:32:15 So recognisable. Iconic. Brie and Clint. We're on the search for the greatest opening line to a song of all time. I'm too sexy for my love, too sexy for my love, love's going to leave. Look, can anything really beat the Shania Twain lyric? From men, I feel like a woman.
Starting point is 00:32:35 Let's go, girls. Such a simple line delivered with such emphasis and gusto and oomph. You know, before The Hunt, we're putting together the list. I mean, yes. These have all been suggested by you guys. Could this song by The Darkness be the greatest opening line of all time? God, I love this song. He's very good on TikTok, Justin Hawkins from The Darkness.
Starting point is 00:33:12 If you don't follow him, he kind of breaks down modern songs and tells you exactly why they're good. He's very intelligent. Super cool. That's going on the list. What else have people texted through? Oh, I mean, the Black Parade. The My Chemical Romance song that defined an entire genre of emo music, Welcome to the Black Parades. When I was a young boy, my father took me into the city
Starting point is 00:33:39 to see a marching band. Brings people together. Yeah, exactly right. You know? On a dance floor, you can see people chanting it. I think that together. Yeah, exactly right. You know? On a dance floor, you can see people chanting it. I think that's a good... Good sign. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:33:49 That's going on the list. You suggested this one. I don't know how we went past it in the first round. From Adele. It's basically just one word, isn't it? Literally.
Starting point is 00:33:59 And if you can't remember it... It's the name of the song. Yeah. Oh. Oh, no way. Extended intro, Ade it... It's the name of the song. Yeah. Oh. Oh, no way. Extended intro, Adele. It's quite long. Hello.
Starting point is 00:34:13 It's me. I mean, so, like, iconic. It's haunting. Super haunting. Yeah, yeah, yeah. This one's come in a lot, this song here. Big in sheds around New Zealand Late at night
Starting point is 00:34:27 From Kenny Rogers Everyone knows the opening line to The Gambler So good So good This one which has come in quite a bit I couldn't tell you what the opening lyrics are to it. And yet everybody knows them as soon as they come on. It's the theme song from The Lion King.
Starting point is 00:35:00 Instantly transports you. Yes. You know? Yeah. Yeah. It's got to be on the list. You know? Yeah. Yeah. It's got to be on the list. I'm standing on Pride Rock. 100%.
Starting point is 00:35:10 Rafiki has just smeared something on my forehead. Simba. Hey, Baba. Queen was a strong contender. Is this just fantasy? So good. So good. Another hugeught in a landslide Another huge one for the dance floor
Starting point is 00:35:29 Have you noticed something about all these so far? What? They were all quite unusual Yes, yeah You know? Yeah And none of them start in like a traditional way either No, no
Starting point is 00:35:42 I'm just a cool boy There was also a vote for this song from the Black Eyed Peas in like a traditional way either. No, no. There was also a vote for this song from the back I pays. Because it's very straightforward and it says exactly what it wants you to do. Straight to the point. It gives you the instructions and it tells you what to do as soon as you hear it. So simple but so effective. I don't think this is one of those ones
Starting point is 00:36:12 where we'll never get to the bottom of it. Oh, no, I've got to the bottom of it. Oh, you've got to the bottom of it? What is that? Ready? I'm going to try and tell you. It's where this journey began. Let's go, girls.
Starting point is 00:36:27 It's it. Just. So what did we do for the last 10 minutes? I just had some fun, mate. A little bit of banter. Brie and Clint. What day is Father's Day, Brie? I think it might be Sunday.
Starting point is 00:36:41 That's right. To celebrate, this clip right here. February 1st trivia answer tonight is Sunday. What do you reckon the question might be? Father's Day. What about Father's Day? Father's Day is on Sunday. Yeah, but what's the question?
Starting point is 00:36:55 Oh, no, I don't know. I love it so much. To commemorate that clip, we are calling different places around New Zealand with surprise reverse trivia. That is correct. It's been nearly 15 years since that contestant was put to air. Surely New Zealand now knows the question to the answer Sunday. It's quite hard, isn't it? It's quite hard.
Starting point is 00:37:18 Yesterday we called the Invercargill Workingmen's Club. No luck. No luck. Today we're going to call another manly establishment for Father's Day. This is the Palmerston North TAB. Chelsea and TAB speaking. Leanne. Who was that?
Starting point is 00:37:31 Sorry? Leanne. Leanne. Hi, and welcome to Surprise Reverse Game Show Trivia. Sorry, we need to work on the intro, Leanne, but you know what we're doing here. Are you ready to play, Leanne? No, I haven't got time to play. Well, it's a one-question game.
Starting point is 00:37:50 Do you want to have a stab at it really quick? One question. So the answer is Sunday. What would the question be? What's the day after Saturday? That's an answer. It's not the answer we're looking for. Think about it, Leanne.
Starting point is 00:38:03 What is happening this Sunday? If the answer is Sunday... It's Father's Day. Yeah, so if that was a question, what would it be? The answer is Sunday. What's the question? The question. No, sorry.
Starting point is 00:38:15 Can you phrase it as a question? The answer is Sunday. Sunday. What would the question be? It's just Sunday, Father's Day. It's pretty close enough. Leanne, I mean,
Starting point is 00:38:26 fantastic work. What has she won, Clint? You've won kudos, praise, and all the credit and a wonderful Father's Day this weekend. Thanks, Leanne.
Starting point is 00:38:35 Oh, thank you. Have a great day, Leanne. I will. Thank you. She was a great contestant. She was... I thought we were going to lose her there
Starting point is 00:38:42 for a second. Was she spot on? No. Was she close? Do you want to go to the replay? I want to go to the replay we were going to lose her there for a second. Was she spot on? No. Was she close? Do you want to go to the replay? I want to go to the replay. You want to go to the replay? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:38:49 We'll have to bring it up, but she's the closest we've come so far. Hey, pretty bloody good from Leanne. Where should we call tomorrow? I mean, the world is our oyster, Clint. Isn't it? It really is. Hey, you know where we should call?
Starting point is 00:39:03 We should call my mum. Oh, she won't have a clue. You don't reckon? Has she heard it? Has she heard more FM reverse trivia before? I don't think so. That's the point. Oh, right.
Starting point is 00:39:13 Yeah, good. Let's call your mum. Brie and Clint. Clint, I feel like it's about time we have a serious debate and chat on our show. Okay. Because there's too much funny business going on. And I feel like we need to talk about some our show. Okay. Because there's too much funny business going on and I feel like we need to talk about some serious issues. Okay.
Starting point is 00:39:29 And I think we should start with what do you think is the hottest Siri voice? You only found out recently that there were multiple Siri voices available, right? No, I think I always knew. Yeah. But I've never strayed from the one I've always known. I don't have an iPhone,
Starting point is 00:39:50 but I feel like the default Siri voice that most New Zealanders have is the Australian woman, right? Maybe. But then I'm... So what I've done with Producer Claude, we've went through all the different options that are available. Because there's lots, eh?
Starting point is 00:40:08 There's lots. There's quite a few. Not as many as what you'd think. Okay. I think Apple need to put a few more in there, if I'm honest. Okay, yeah. And I thought what we could do this afternoon is go through all the different Siri options
Starting point is 00:40:20 that are available on the iPhone right now. Yeah. And we can deliberate. Who's the hottest? Who's the hottest? Yeah, who's the hottest personal assistant you can have living in your pocket? Who's the hottest voice? Let's kick it off with, I think the American is quite the classic one that you've heard
Starting point is 00:40:37 a lot, but you be the judge. Hi, I'm Siri. Choose the voice you'd like me to use. Yeah. No offence to our American friends. It feels like it's a bit off the shelf, that one, doesn't it? A bit off the shelf. Yeah, a little bit generic.
Starting point is 00:40:49 Yeah. Yeah. What about some British? Hi, I'm Siri. Choose the voice you'd like me to use. Oh, she sounds classy. Don't mind if I do. Hi, I'm Siri.
Starting point is 00:41:03 Choose the voice you'd like me to use. Hot. Wow. That's a hot one. Okay, yeah. That is a hot one. What should we go next? Indian?
Starting point is 00:41:12 Is there an Indian one? There's an Indian one. That's number four. Okay, yeah, let's hear that one. Hi, I'm Siri. Choose the voice you'd like me to use. Hot too. Oh, I like that.
Starting point is 00:41:21 I like that as well. She's hot as well. She's going on to the hot list. Sorry, I'm making a short list of hot series here. Can we hear the Australian one? Yeah, that's number three. Hi, I'm Siri.
Starting point is 00:41:30 Choose the voice you'd like me to use. Nah, not into that one. No, wait, let's hear it again. Something about a... Hi, I'm Siri. Choose the voice you'd like me to use.
Starting point is 00:41:41 Hot. That one's hot. I think it's my favourite. Well, it gets a vote for hot. It's going onto the list. Irish. Irish. Irish.
Starting point is 00:41:50 Hi, I'm Siri. Choose the voice you'd like me to use. Not my favourite. It doesn't sound super Irish to me. I think they've cheaped out and got the Irish person to do the British one as well. Let's just check. Irish. Hi, I'm Siri.
Starting point is 00:42:03 Choose the voice you'd like me to use. British. Hi, I'm Siri. Choose the voice you'd like me to use. British. Hi, I'm Siri. Choose the voice you'd like me to use. British is way hotter. The British one is hotter in that case. That doesn't sound Irish to me. It's not Irish enough, eh?
Starting point is 00:42:14 Okay, class. Hi, I'm Siri. Choose the voice you'd like me to use. I don't think so. No, I want her to be like, well, hello there, I'm Siri. And then I'd be like, you're on the list.
Starting point is 00:42:22 Last one. Is this South African? South African. Is there a South African Siri? In my opinion, it doesn't sound South African at all. Okay, well, let's have a listen. Hi, I'm Siri. Choose the voice you'd like me to use.
Starting point is 00:42:36 Oh, right at the end there. Just right at the end. Hi, I'm Siri. Choose the voice you'd like me to use. It's not South African enough for it to be sexy. I love the South African accent and that doesn't sound enough. Okay, so we've got a short list. British.
Starting point is 00:42:55 Indian. Or Australian. I think, guys, I know none of Choose the voice you'd like me to use. I think, guys, I know none of us have to vote here in the studio. I think it's done and dusted. The Aussie voice is the hottest. Good luck finding that option inside your iPhone, everybody. Bree and Clint.
Starting point is 00:43:18 Bree and Clint. You ever wanted to get revenge on a customer? I mean, I worked in hospitality for a number of years. Me too. And if I'm completely honest, absolutely. 90% of the people you deal with are great, and they were actually my favourite part of the job. But it's that 10% who can really ruin your day.
Starting point is 00:43:35 It's 80-20. Might be 80-20 now post-COVID, to be fair. There is a barista in the UK who has spilled the beans, excuse the pun, on her favourite way to get revenge on customers. Ooh, what is she doing? Her name is Betsy Windmill. Real name. Is that her real name?
Starting point is 00:43:53 According to this story, it is her real name, Betsy Windmill. She should be an artist. She's a former barista in the UK, so she's quit that job now. But that's why she says she's fine talking about it because she doesn't do it anymore she said she would frequently tamper with customers orders if they were rude or ill-mannered to her have a listen to how Betsy Windmill would get revenge on dickhead customers
Starting point is 00:44:18 the classic if they were rude I would give them a decaf how they're gonna know sometimes if they were rude and they ordered a double, I'd just give them a single. If they ordered like a caramel, I'd just give them a vanilla. And then if they came back and said, this is the wrong drink, I said, oh, I did call it out. You must have got the wrong one. Another classic, if I had my hand out and they put the money on the counter,
Starting point is 00:44:40 I used to put the change back on the counter, even if they had the hand open. So passive-aggressive. So passive-aggressive. So passive-aggressive. But it's those tiny little things in your day that you can control that would make you feel a bit better about it, right? And it would prevent you from having to say something or cause a fight with a customer,
Starting point is 00:44:55 and you could just get your little bit of revenge. You know what I think it is? And I think there's actually a really good message behind this whole story is don't be a dick. Yeah, don't be a dick. Because that's where it starts. And it's so easy to be kind to people and to be friendly and nice, especially people who are providing a service
Starting point is 00:45:16 and they're making you something. You know what I mean? And obviously she had to deal with quite a lot of people who were quite rude because she had so many different options where she would mess with their orders. I love the idea of giving someone a decaf when they've ordered a regular coffee. They'd be like, what? I'm so tired. I've got a headache. Being rude because they're tired and then you give them a decaf and you make it worse. I've done this. I've worked in customer facing jobs before and I've had my own revenge. Oh yes, what did you do? I worked in a gas station. I worked in customer-facing jobs before, and I've had my own revenge that I've taken up. Oh, yes? What did you do?
Starting point is 00:45:46 I worked in a gas station. I worked in a few gas stations, actually, but my first real job was in gas stations. And let's just say you came in, and you were a bit of a dick. To me, the guy pumping your gas, 15-year-old, earning minimum wage, and you didn't feel like being very polite to me. Or worse, you said something rude to me or made me feel stupid in that job. Well, you just might be leaving the service station without your petrol cap.
Starting point is 00:46:10 What? No. You left me to fill up your car. No. You left me to fill up your car. No. And you've said I'm not very good at my job, so why don't I just prove it and not put the petrol cap back on your car?
Starting point is 00:46:20 Giving someone a decaf instead of a real coffee and then stealing someone's petrol cap. I didn't steal their petrol cap. I would never steal someone's petrol cap. Where do you put it? Just leave it on the petrol pump and then close the petrol flap. They go inside, pay for their gas, and then they drive off and they don't have their petrol cap.
Starting point is 00:46:34 And it won't be for two, maybe three, maybe even four weeks until they need gas again and they go, oh my God, I don't have a petrol cap. Victimless crime. I'm so glad you don't work at a gas station anymore because that is dangerous. It isn't dangerous. What, to drive around with an open petrol tank?
Starting point is 00:46:51 Yeah, it's fine. It's fine. You're like, now that I think about it. It's fine. Well, you'd be really stuffed now because electric cars are at the rage. So what would you do there? Oh, 800 dials at M this afternoon.
Starting point is 00:47:04 Are you willing to be brave so what would you do there? Oh, 800 dials at M this afternoon. Are you willing to be brave and tell us how you mess with customers who mess with you? Yeah. Doesn't mean it's right. You might not work that job anymore. No, you might not work there anymore. Maybe it's like a trade secret, an industry secret that people don't know about,
Starting point is 00:47:19 how everybody in your line of work gets revenge on customers who deserve it. You know what people in retail could do? What? They could just leave the security tag on the clothing item. Exactly right. Or they could grab you, if you're just grabbing it off the rack, they grab you the wrong size, pop it in your bag, you get home later,
Starting point is 00:47:37 then you have to come all the way back to the store. The store give you two left shoes, so you have to come all the way back. Or one eight and one nine. Yeah. Bree and Clint. So what's the secret in your job? And how do you mess with customers? This first caller wants to be anonymous.
Starting point is 00:47:51 Hi, Anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hello. What are you doing? Yeah, what's the industry first? What's your job? So I used to work at the cinemas. Okay.
Starting point is 00:48:00 Right. So Brie comes in. She's rude to you. And what do you do to get your revenge? I put the popcorn scoop on a very specific angle and give you all the kernels and shitty bits. Oh, genius, Anonymous. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:48:16 Yes, I can see that. That is the perfect revenge. Because it's not like they can say anything about it or you did it on purpose. They also won't know until they get to the bottom of the box. You know, until the movie's already started, they're never coming back. That is genius, Anonymous. That's so good.
Starting point is 00:48:29 Thanks for letting us in on that. Steve's here. Hi, Steve. G'day, Steve. Hey, how's it going? Good, thanks. What's the line of work you're in, Steve? So I used to work at the Restaurant Brands call centre,
Starting point is 00:48:40 so taking orders for Pizza Hut and KFC. Yeah, okay. So what I'd do is if people were just like dicks on the phone or took too long or didn't listen to me i'd add in like kitchen notes on their order so like the order the notes currently show is that what printed in the kitchen i'll put in things like i don't know mild allergy go easy on the cheese or you take off all the guys yeah yeah they'll be like light on the cheese so they You take off all the best things. They'll be like, light on the cheese.
Starting point is 00:49:09 They'll just be like, oh, look, I didn't put a lot of cheese on. And then just leave it there. Oh, no. I'd be gutted. This customer hates chicken salt. No salt on their chips. Don't put the chicken salt on. That's the best part. I love this text that's come through and someone said Lucky G's Burger Joint out in West Auckland.
Starting point is 00:49:25 Their slogan is no respect, no service, plain and simple. Yeah, that's a good way to do it. I love that and I totally agree with it. How about this message? I'm a graphic designer and I draw dicks and mean names on difficult clients' logos, billboards and ads. They're hidden so only I can see or find them, but they're definitely there.
Starting point is 00:49:46 What about this one? You pay $100,000 for a new logo and it's got a hidden penis on it? That's crazy. Someone else said similar. I'm a photographer and I photoshop the ones that are rude to me to accentuate their wrinkles. Oh.
Starting point is 00:50:01 You make them look older than they actually are. I worked in a petrol station and I would give red lighters to blue gang members that came in and blue lighters to red gang members that came in. You're literally, quite literally and figuratively playing with fire in that situation, aren't they? This person wants to be anonymous as well. Hi, Anonymous.
Starting point is 00:50:21 Hi, Anonymous. Hello. Tell us, what's the job, Anonymous? So I used to work at a Mexican restaurant. Okay. If customers were addicted to me, I would put spicy sauce into the meals. Oh.
Starting point is 00:50:37 Oh, no. Not like spicy, spicy, but like the next level up from what they ordered. Right. So where they'd go, oh, this is a little bit hotter than what I thought it would be. Just enough to make it not enjoyable. Is that right, Anonymous?
Starting point is 00:50:49 Yeah. Right, okay. Now, you've never had any severe allergic reactions to this process before, have you? No. No, okay, good. Well, he's just going in one step apart. Just a little bit. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:58 Just a little bit. Just to make it mildly annoying. And how did that make you feel, Anonymous? Did it make you feel better in the kitchen? Yeah, a little less stressed. Yeah, good. A little bit more powerful? A little bit more stressed in case I come back.
Starting point is 00:51:09 Yeah, yeah, yeah. Then you're on edge the whole time. Okay. Someone said, everybody knew at our gas station if you didn't like a customer, you made sure you filled their gas bottle up halfway. That way they'd have to come back in sooner rather than later.
Starting point is 00:51:22 So you're actually ripping people off in this situation, but I totally get it. I totally understand that. People, and I mean, this is a good lesson where it's easy to be kind to people and just be polite because people do have some sort of power. I'm a mechanic, and if you're nice, I'll happily do extra things for free.
Starting point is 00:51:41 If you're a dick, you'll be getting charged for everything and an extra hour of labour. Yeah, fair enough. What about this person? This one makes me feel sick. I used to work for an airline. If people were rude, I would put them in the worst seats on the plane. How are they going to know? They're not going to know that you did that.
Starting point is 00:51:59 You'll just be like, sorry, they were the only available seats together. Well, okay. Well, there you go. There are some industry hacks for you, everybody. Watch out. Just think about the person on the other end of the deal that you're doing. Just be kind. They're a real person.
Starting point is 00:52:11 Be polite. And they have more power than you realise. And don't be a dick. Bree and Clint. We were just talking before about the little things you do to get revenge on customers that are rude to you. Someone's just texted and says, just one more text.
Starting point is 00:52:29 They said, it's not me, but a friend who used to be an air hostess said if someone was being a dick to them or annoying, she would fart in their space. What do you mean, fart in their space? As she walks down the aisle on the plane. She said no one ever suspects the air hostess. Really?
Starting point is 00:52:47 Yeah. Might be in the wrong job. God bless the customer. It's my birthday. It's my birthday. Three and Clint's birthday banger. Can you imagine? And then you get to the back of the plane
Starting point is 00:52:59 and then you just have a look just to see. Yeah, you just watch. Yeah, yeah. Just say to your other co-flight attendant. Don't go down the B aisle. 13B, watch. For about 10 minutes. Just steer clear of that aisle.
Starting point is 00:53:12 Yuck. Let's do a birthday banger. It's the number one song on your 16th birthday. And Matt's got through. G'day, Matt. G'day, Matt. Hey, guys. How are we?
Starting point is 00:53:20 Good, mate. How are you? Yeah, good. Thank you. Have you ever crop dusted someone, Matt? I can't say I have. Oh, you've got to try it. It's just, it's riveting.
Starting point is 00:53:30 Oh. Yeah. Bring it up. Bring the conversation up, everybody. Moving on. Matt, what's your birthday, mate? It's the 12th of June, 1996. Right.
Starting point is 00:53:38 That means you were 16 in 2012. And on your 16th birthday, this would have been number one. Lash Gold. Lash Gold. Do you like Flowrider? Matt? Yeah, it was good in the day. Yeah, this song goes hard. This bit is really good. Good song.
Starting point is 00:54:05 Yeah. Don't mind it. Wait there, Matt. That's a contender. Kareen is here. Hi, Kareen. I'm Karen. Karen.
Starting point is 00:54:15 Karen. Hi. Hi, Karen. How are you? Hi, Karen. How are you? I'm all right, thank you. I'm listening to these terrible things that people are saying.
Starting point is 00:54:25 What job do you work in, Karen? I'm a tenancy manager. Okay. Okay. All right. And to be fair, if people are really nice, you can forgive them some things. And if they're awful, then you just charge them for everything. Yes, Karen.
Starting point is 00:54:41 So you're saying as a tenancy manager, you might not get all of your bond back if you're not a very nice person. Yeah. Or you might be charged for every little thing. Yeah, okay, right. Yeah, she's just saying she'll help people out if they're nice. Yeah, fair enough. Fair enough. Karen, what's your birthday?
Starting point is 00:54:54 27 October 1958. Right, that means you were 16 in 1974. And on your 16th birthday, this would have been number one. You ain't seen nothing yet. Baby, you just ain't seen nothing yet. Here's something you're never going to forget. Baby. That is Bachman-Turner Overdrive and You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet. Do you like that, Karen?
Starting point is 00:55:20 I did. Yeah. Absolutely. Does it take you back to your 16th birthday? I was thinking it would be something different, but no, that's fine. I'm good with that. It's a banger. It has never come up in birthday banger before as well.
Starting point is 00:55:31 I like it. I like it a lot. Let's do one more for Kelly. Hi, Kelly. G'day, Kelly. Hi. Hi. How's your day going, Kelly?
Starting point is 00:55:38 Oh, not too bad. Just enjoying the sun. Oh, good. How good's the sun been finally? Today, it's just been the pre-mo. It's spring on Thursday. Yeah, I looked at my car dashboard temperature gauge and it said it was 23 on the way to work today. Did it really? And I think my car might have been parked in the sun too long. But still,
Starting point is 00:55:59 I was excited about it. Hey, Kelly, let's do your birthday banger. What's your birthday? 21st of January, 1972. All right, that means you were 16 in 1988. On the 21st of Jan, 88, this was number one. Kelly, you brick-rolled us, Kelly. You knew what you were doing. This is the song that Young Gravy guy is using. Oh yeah, he's too.
Starting point is 00:56:30 Yeah. He's Rickrolling everyone. Young Gravy is Rickrolling everybody. What do you think, Kelly? You like a bit of Rick Astley? It's a good song, actually. Yeah. I think it's particularly good.
Starting point is 00:56:45 I actually love this song from Rick Astley I think the nation deserves a good Rickrolling this afternoon so I vote Rick Astley Oh my god are we going to Rickroll all of New Zealand
Starting point is 00:56:52 I think we need to No well technically Kelly has started it Kelly's Rickrolling everybody Kelly's Rickrolling everyone and you've won Birthday Banger Kelly Awesome
Starting point is 00:57:01 You were 16 in 1988 and this was the number one song. Here's your birthday banger, New Zealand, Brian Clint. We're no strangers to love. Brian Clint. I'm going to say goodbye. I'm going to say goodbye.
Starting point is 00:57:21 And where's you? Zed and Brian Clint. Rick Ashley is a birthday banger today. Never gonna give you up. That's a big old Rick rolling. Oh, this is a great song too. This would have been really good. I just wonder if it was slightly too obscure.
Starting point is 00:57:39 It's one of those ones where I think a lot of people could not tell you who sings it. Yeah. But you know the tune. Who's the youngest member of our producing team? Is it Claude? Yes. Producer Claude, do you know this song?
Starting point is 00:57:53 I do know this song. Do you like this song? I do like this song. Would you like this to win birthday banger? No, I was voting for Rick Astley. Okay, sweet. Okay, go. It's a nation to deserve a Rick Roll.
Starting point is 00:58:02 He wanted to be Rick Rolled. Yeah. So I took what I could get. Let's talk sexy cars. Or not. A new study from the UK has found that BMW drivers ranked as the number one ickiest car.
Starting point is 00:58:27 Oh, poor BMW drivers, hey. They're always getting the rough end of the stick. Scrap Car Comparison, that's a website I think, they surveyed 2,000 people to determine the vehicles that turned them on and the vehicles that turned them off. Those who were surveyed said BMWs were the most likely to give them the yuck. There is that stigma that is attached to a BMW driver. What is the stigma?
Starting point is 00:58:52 I think it's the stigma of they're not as considerate as other drivers. Yeah, they say most BMWs don't actually come with an indicator. Yeah. You know, and that they're a little bit like, I'm too good for everyone else. Yeah. That's the stigma that's attached, I think. I think that might be fair enough. I don't understand the other
Starting point is 00:59:12 two. The following car, so that's the car that puts people off the most, BMW. Followed by a Fiat. What's wrong with a Fiat? I like Fiats. Fiats are quite cute. I mean, I'd never buy a Fiat, but I've never looked at a Fiat and gone, ugh. I look at a Fiat and think Fiat's are quite cute. I mean, I'd never buy a Fiat, but I've never looked at a Fiat and gone, ugh. I look at a Fiat and think, ooh, so Italiano.
Starting point is 00:59:28 If you have a Fiat, I think you're a fun, kooky person. Yeah. That's what I think about you. You're quite kitschy. Followed by Skodas. Skodas. Skoda. The New Zealand police have just upgraded to full fleet of Skodas.
Starting point is 00:59:39 Haven't they? Yeah. I wonder why they're on the list. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. What's the hottest car? Yeah. I wonder why they're on the list. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know. What's the hottest car? Yeah. Mercedes-Benz.
Starting point is 00:59:49 Really? Yeah. Mercedes were the most likely to get people interested beating a Porsche and a Lamborghini. If someone pulled up in a Lamborghini, I don't think I'd find them attractive. I think I would find them pretentious as all hell. That's what I think.
Starting point is 01:00:02 Yeah. Yeah. It's interesting. I mean, I feel like the New Zealand list would be quite different to this list. Yeah, where's the Ford Ranger? Actually, where is the Ford Ranger on that
Starting point is 01:00:14 list for you? I want to know are women in New Zealand attracted to people because of their car? And I think this could be good information for a lot of the men of New Zealand. Look, I hate to break it to the men. I'm only speaking from my female perspective.
Starting point is 01:00:31 I don't think women are attracted in the ways that men think we are. Like if you've got a big engine and your car's real fast and you've got a big sounding muffler, we do not give a crap. If your car is clean and tidy on the inside and you're a good driver that's safe, sexy. Is there one sexy? That's what I think is sexy. If I get into a guy's car and it is clean and tidy, sexy.
Starting point is 01:01:00 Right, interesting. Okay. Producer Claude, surely you're a fan of a guy who drives a Toyota Hilux With a snorkel, right? That's a bit of you I can't
Starting point is 01:01:08 Loud cars I just can't stand them Right, okay They make me roll my eyes It's just like Trying to show off For no reason And it's just giving
Starting point is 01:01:16 The opposite impression It literally makes us Go into early stage Manipause I'm not joking Was there any kind of car that you find attractive? I really love a VW Kombi. Oh, okay.
Starting point is 01:01:29 Love a Kombi. Do you know the Reliant Robin? No. The three-wheeler car. I think I thought someone had those that would catch my attention. It's not road legal. No, no, no, Claudia. Megan, is there a car that you're attracted to?
Starting point is 01:01:42 I mean, this chat's really not for me. I don't know brands of cars. I don't. But if you are showing up with a two-door, I'm not getting in it. Interesting. You've got to flip the seat forward to get in the back. What if it's a Mini Cooper?
Starting point is 01:01:56 Nah, it's Admin. Really? I kind of agree with you. As I've gotten older, I'm in my 30s now, don't want to deal with a two-door car. What if it's a real estate agent and it's a two-door car and there are no back seats? It's like a coupe.
Starting point is 01:02:08 Even worse. It's even worse. And don't ask me to drive the top down. I was going to say, does it have a sunroof? That literally means you have no friends. I'm sorry. There's only two seats in your car. Wow.
Starting point is 01:02:19 You guys are dropping some truth bombs this afternoon. And, oh, wait, the worst one. If you own, like, a Ford Ranger or a Hilux or anything like that and you're not a tradie, what are you doing with your life? There you go. From the horse's mouth. You're probably offering to help every one of your friends move. Move house, yeah. Because that's what will happen.
Starting point is 01:02:44 Free and Clint. Trigger warning,. Because that's what will happen. Trigger warning, we're about to talk about cheating. God, we talk about cheating a bit on this show, don't we? I mean, it happens a lot. It does happen a lot, unfortunately. This is a story that is published in the New Zealand Herald today where someone has written anonymously. Yeah, that's a word. You crush that.
Starting point is 01:03:03 Anonymously into the relationship experts. Okay. The relationship therapists, they kind of answer questions of whatever you have. Like Dolly Magazine from back in the day. Yeah, kind of. Yeah. This guy, though, is definitely above Dolly age. Let me read you his letter, okay?
Starting point is 01:03:18 And then we'll discuss what we think about it. So he said, Verity and Nick, that's the name of the therapists. Four years into our marriage, more than 50 years ago, my wife went to dinner with some friends and I looked after our two boys. The dinner was at 7pm. She left the dinner at 6.30 but did not get home until 4.30 in the morning. Ooh, big night. During the next day, I asked her about the dinner
Starting point is 01:03:45 and she was reluctant to talk about it. Finally, over seven days, several days, she admitted she had left early with somebody else and had several hours of indoor gardening, including not using protection. Ooh. I was devastated and despite asking more questions, she would never tell me who it was or where they went.
Starting point is 01:04:06 Somehow we got through it and the next year we moved away to start afresh together. He said, over the years, she would never tell me who it was with. We've had lots of arguments about it. The years went by, but it has always haunted me. Reluctantly, I asked her again and she said, I should just get over it because it would hurt me more if I knew who it was with. It's one of his mates. That's what makes me think it's one of his mates.
Starting point is 01:04:31 That's the only reason. If it was someone he didn't know, then who cares? For this, that made it worse. For me, this made it worse, and I cannot accept it. Can you help me? So this guy here, do you think 50 years on he needs to know who the person is no no it's 50 years ago right like why does it matter now if you decided to stay together yeah to be honest i feel like yeah if you decided to stay together 50 years ago and you've gone through
Starting point is 01:05:01 life together for 50 years yeah you don't need to so does she as the cheetah have the right actually to go you actually need to let this go now it was 50 years ago we've agreed to move on you agreed to move on so leave it alone look i feel like he has a right to know if he really wants to but i feel like she's trying to protect him at the end of the day they've been together for 50 years like she's obviously trying to save maybe the guy that she cheated with they're still friends. That's what makes me
Starting point is 01:05:34 think that the person who the cheating was done with is still in their lives somehow which really would hurt him because then he would replay every interaction he's had with that person over the last 50 years and he'd go you treating me like an idiot because all this time you knew that you got it on with my wife until 4.30 in the morning. If it was a one-time thing and they squashed it and they've moved on. And if it was one of my friends, I wouldn't want to know.
Starting point is 01:05:59 You wouldn't want to know? No, because who cares? If it was literally the only time and it was 50 years ago and that person has treated you really well and done everything right, it's just going to make you, like you said, second-guess everything and obviously it'll be so much anguish for no reason. They've clearly never dealt with it properly though, right? If they're still having arguments about it 50 years later, they never actually resolved it.
Starting point is 01:06:26 Look, this is how I look at it. If he really wanted to know and the best time to know that stuff was 50 years ago and then knowing all that information, you then make a decision about if you want to stay together. You've made the decision to stay together and she wouldn't tell you who it was. I know that's not your fault but it's 50 years ago
Starting point is 01:06:47 you don't need to know now people don't think 50 years into the future when they cheat on a whim do they when you have a drunken rendezvous with somebody after a dinner like she's clearly had you don't think that's going to haunt the rest of your life for 50 years
Starting point is 01:07:01 years on do you think I'll be thinking about this one night was it worth it Was it that good And I think That's why It's better not to cheat Everybody
Starting point is 01:07:10 You just don't cheat I mean pretty simple That's the end of the show Everybody Good times What should I cook For dinner tonight guys Beef stroganoff
