We know the brand, Apple, and all of their iPhone, iMac, iTunes, things that start with I. Oh, God, that makes me feel sick. Is that your alarm? Is that your alarm?
Starting point is 00:10:59 That's my alarm. Yeah. Gives me, like, shivers. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Do you ever do that thing where you go through them and you're like, what's a nice-sounding alarm? I want to What's a nice sounding alarm I want to be woken up nicely Well in the end
Starting point is 00:11:09 Nothing's going to sound nice Because it's like Associated with something bad It's not just the phone But you're right It's iMacs It's iPods It's iTunes
Starting point is 00:11:16 It's iEverything Everything is i It's all got an i in front of it And have you ever thought What does the i stand for You had an idea You were like i think it stands for intelligent i i it's not a guess i always thought that it stood for intelligent
Starting point is 00:11:31 and why do you intelligent phone because it's like a smartphone it's like yeah right it's like the intelligent version of they position themselves as being the smarter version of everything yeah you're not alone because they asked people on social media, what do you think the I stands for? Yeah. And they had guesses like intelligent, indispensable. Indoor. And some people even thinking it meant I as in my phone.
Starting point is 00:11:57 Oh, I am phone. Like the Will Smith movie, I am legend. Yeah, right? I am legend. Such bad grammar. But no, apparently it doesn't. And there's an article where Steve Jobs was interviewed for Reader's Digest back in 1998.
Starting point is 00:12:16 Okay. And he talks about what the I stands for. This is pre-iPhone and iPod, the major I's, but post-iMac. Yeah. So apparently it doesn't stand for just one word, but it stands for five. Five words? Five words. Okay.
Starting point is 00:12:33 Okay. What is the I? According to Steve Jobs. I feel like you're going to blow our minds. Well, apparently it stands for these five things. Internet, individual, instruct, inform, and inspire.
Starting point is 00:12:48 Oh, boring. So I've got an internet, instruct, inspire, individual phone. I don't actually. Yeah. Right. Okay.
Starting point is 00:13:01 That's what it means. No wonder they don't talk about it more often. That's pretty boring. It's pretty lame, isn't it? Bree and Clint. Over the weekend, the very cool, the very trendy, the very influential Triple J Hottest 100 was held. It used to be held on Australia Day, didn't it?
Starting point is 00:13:15 Yeah, so it used to be held on Australia Day, which is still currently the 26th. Yes. Invasion Day, which is what a lot of people now call it because they're what the dayth. Yes. Invasion Day, which is what a lot of people now call it because they're what the day changed. Yes. Which, bloody hurry up and change it. Just change the bloody day.
Starting point is 00:13:33 Just bloody hurry up and change it. You can do that. I feel like Albo will get it done. Yeah, I think so too. A lot of people are now jumping on board where they're in great support of it being changed because it means a lot to the Aboriginal community. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:46 But it's awesome to see that Triple J. They've moved the day. They've moved the day. They've moved their day. To the Saturday. So it happened on Saturday the 28th. Perfect. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:56 You have your barbecues. You listen to the Triple J Hottest 100. It is one of the great Australian traditions. Of recent, more and more songs from the Triple J Hottest 100 have been crossing into the mainstream. Didn't used to happen so much back in the day. What was it? Oh, it was Taylor Swift quite a number of years ago.
Starting point is 00:14:14 The Swifties tried to hijack the countdown to shake it off. And then they did, and it was going to get number one, and then there was all these... They discredited all of the Taylor Swift votes. Yeah. Since then, I feel like the Triple J Hottest 100 has been dragged, kicking and screaming into the mainstream. A little bit.
Starting point is 00:14:31 I think it was 2019 this was number one. Woo! What a bagger. From Ocean Alley. Total Vibe. And probably the biggest crossover number one in a long time. Last year, this song was number one. From Glass Animals.
Starting point is 00:14:49 And we have not stopped playing it. It's still on the playlist a hundred times a day. So what does the top ten of the Triple J Hottest 100 look like this year? And what songs might you hear on the ZM playlist very soon? Because this is a tastemaker's playlist. Yeah, totally. And can I just ask real quick before we get into this? Have we
Starting point is 00:15:07 become cooler or have they become less cool? Or have they become more mainstream? Is it us becoming cooler? Let's just choose to believe that. I think we, yeah, I think it's us. Yeah, I think we are cooler. Quick stat for you, 3.2 million votes are cast in the Triple J Hottest 100
Starting point is 00:15:23 every year. That's a lot of people, eh? It's so many and it's jumped up heaps. In 2004 they got half2 million votes are cast in the Triple J Hottest 100 every year. That's a lot of people, eh? It's so many. And it's jumped up heaps. In 2004, they got half a million votes. And in 2019, 3.2 million votes. So what does it look like? What did the top 10 look like just on Saturday when it went down? We're going to go through them.
Starting point is 00:15:41 A lot of these songs are on the ZM playlist, so you will know them. Joji was number 10. We played a lot of that song on the ZM playlist. I mean, is it a mean vibe for a Saturday summer barbecue in Australia? No. I'd say it probably bring down the vibe a little bit because it is a slow song. Number nine. These guys are back.
Starting point is 00:16:04 Gang of Youths. They've been in the Hottest 100 a lot. This song is called In the Wake of Your Leave. No, not that one, this one. We can rush through some of these. Number eight was Ballpark Music, stars in my eyes. Number seven is one that we know, Bree. I know, I saw this.
Starting point is 00:16:31 It caused a lot of controversy. She could have even been higher. Lizzo was number seven. This song is excellent. It is excellent and she is excellent. She's great. But Taylor Swift is excellent too. Yep. So it shows you how much things have changed
Starting point is 00:16:46 if Lizzo can now be in the top ten. I know. Number six. These guys are very hip, very cool. Spacey Jane sitting up was number six. This is what I think of when I think of Triple J. This is a Triple J vibe, right? They're so hip and so cool that Spacey Jane,
Starting point is 00:17:04 but also number five. Whether it's been a long day. Spacey Jane. Number four is another one that we know, Bree. We know one. What is it? Steve Lacey, Bad Habits. Not that one.
Starting point is 00:17:22 This one. You know when we were playing this, because I think we're still playing it on the ZM playlist, I was like, triple J vibes. Yeah. Well, this was number four. Number three was fricking Spacey Jane again. Sounds like the other one.
Starting point is 00:17:44 No offence, Spacey Jane. I'm sure you're fantastic, No offence, Tracy Jane. I'm sure you're fantastic, but to me, sounds similar. It's got a cool vibe to it. I won't pretend I know this song, but I like it. I don't know it. Okay, then we get into the top two. All right, here we go, the big ones. You will be happy to know that you at least know both of the top two artists.
Starting point is 00:18:03 Oh, well, that's good. Whether you know both of the songs or not is another thing. Another question. You definitely know number two. Okay. It featured, I think it really blew up when it featured on the Inspired Unemployed video. We played this song.
Starting point is 00:18:17 About drinking Friday beers. We play it on ZM. We play it all the time. Baddest of them all. It's number two. You are the best, baby. I know you see me. Yep. Eliz them all. It's number two. Yep. Eliza Rose. Cool song. An Interplanetary Criminal. It's such a good song.
Starting point is 00:18:33 Which leaves just one. And it's fitting that it should be an Australian in the number one spot on the Triple J Hottest 100. So good. Who was it? The number one artist on the Triple J Hottest 100 for 2023, Guy Sebastian. Amazing. No, it's Flume.
Starting point is 00:18:54 I love this song. Yeah. He's coming to play here soon. Is he? Yeah, I believe. Might be in a month's time. Oh, yeah, that might get rained out yet. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:07 But this is an absolute banger and cool to see Flume on top of his game again. There you go. That is the Triple J Hottest 100 for 2023. Now you can say, oh, yeah, I know those songs. Yeah, I know all those bands. I've listened to those songs since before they were cool. It's not a band. It's a solo artist.
Starting point is 00:19:24 Yeah, I knew that. I've been listening to those songs since before they were cool. It's not a band. It's a solo artist. Yeah, I knew that. I knew that. Bree and Clint. It's time for a game of Guess That Voice. The game. It's time to guess that voice. We're going to give you celebrity bites and you have to tell us who it is. Should have stopped while I was doing it.
Starting point is 00:19:41 No, that was good. That was very well done, yeah. I was going to explain the game. I don't really need to now, to be honest. It's kind was very well done, yeah. I was going to explain the game. Don't really need to now, to be honest. It's kind of in the song. Yeah. Claude runs the game. What to do, Claude?
Starting point is 00:19:51 Howdy doody. Howdy doody, Claude. It's going to be Monday, guys. Are we doing a country version of this show today? Oh, we should. Maybe I'll do that next week. That would have been good. A country version.

Starting point is 00:24:39 Kia ora, Chris. G'day, Chris. Hello. How are you coping after the weekend of wild weather? Whereabouts in the country are you? I'm in Auckland on the North Shore. How did you get out? Did you get out scot-free or a bit of damage?

Starting point is 00:25:02 It's the 3rd of December, 1991. All right, Chris, that means you were 16 in 2007. And back in 2007, on your 16th birthday, this was number one. But I don't care what they say. I'm in love with you. They're trying to fool me. Banger. They don't know the truth.
Starting point is 00:25:22 Emotional banger from Leona Lewis, Bleeding Love. How do you like that, Chris? Wow. There were so many that could have been. I'm not sure about this one. I bloody loved this song, eh? Yeah. It was so good.
Starting point is 00:25:36 I reckon this might be the greatest Leona Lewis song of all time. I think it might be my favourite one from her. Yeah. Okay, wait there, Chris. Chris is like, I can't name another one Let's go to Liam Hi Liam, welcome to Birthday Banger Hello guys, how are you?

Starting point is 00:26:10 I like those weekends That's a bit of me I don't mind those weekends either I prefer them when there isn't 240 mils of rain To go with that But that's not doing nothing That's trying to patch your roof And save your house That's doing doing nothing. That's trying to, you know, patch your roof and save your house.
Starting point is 00:26:25 That's doing something. Hey, Liam, what's your birthday? 12th of January, 2001. Oh, happy birthday for a couple of weeks ago, Liam. Thank you. You were 16 in 2017. And here's your birthday banger. Clean bandit. Baby, rock-a-bye. I'm gonna rock you, rock-a-bye, baby.
Starting point is 00:26:46 Clean Bandit. We've got a shot of Paul and Anne-Marie on there too. Rock-a-bye. You like it, Liam? Oh, I'm a fan. I wouldn't say it's my fave, though. Yeah, fair. It's definitely not even the best Clean Bandit song.
Starting point is 00:26:59 No. Jeez. Okay. All right. No, no. Fair enough. Thank you for your honesty. Wait there, Liam.
Starting point is 00:27:06 We're going to do one more birthday banger for Jeannie Jeannie, hi Jeannie G'day Jeannie Hi, how are you? Good mate, whereabouts in the country are you? I'm in Auckland in the stunning weather Okay, how did you go with all the goings on? Not too bad, we were moving flats, so
Starting point is 00:27:22 What? A good weekend to be moving flats Yes, perfect weekend for us. You're kidding me, Jeannie. What a nightmare. Well, if either of your places flooded over the weekend, I hope it was the old flat and not the new one. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:27:36 Thankfully, both fine. Okay, good to hear. Hey, Jeannie, what's your birthday? 23rd February. Okay, and year? 2001. Which means you were 16 in 2017, and on that day, this would have been number one. The Queen. I forgot to tell you, Brie, I saw Lorde on Friday riding a Lime scooter.
Starting point is 00:28:01 No, you did not. Yes, I did. Where? I told the girls after you went home on Kuiper Pass in Auckland. Shut the front door. She was riding a lime scooter
Starting point is 00:28:09 down the hill with her little hat on and her blonde plaited pigtails. Why are you so lucky? Damn it. Jeannie, you a fan of Lorde?
Starting point is 00:28:17 I'm not a disliker but I wouldn't put it on my party favour. Okay. Can I try and sway the vote by saying not only did I see her which is why I'm going
Starting point is 00:28:25 to vote for her, she was out there helping with the relief efforts on the weekend. Oh, she got my vote then. She was... I can't say no. She was putting in the mahi
Starting point is 00:28:32 to help people who had been affected by the floods on the weekend. Jeannie, you go like her now. I'm actually a massive fan. Yeah, I'm a huge, huge fan. Lifelong. Okay, well, we're all voting Lord,
Starting point is 00:28:43 all three of us. Lord. Okay, cool. Brayne Clint, he's the winner of Birthday Banger for Jeannie from 2017 on ZM. Brian Clint. I do my makeup in somebody else's car. We order different drinks at the same bars. Brian Clint. We order different drinks at the same bars Bree and Clint Look, obviously the past weekend has been a pretty tough one
Starting point is 00:29:09 for a lot of people in Auckland. A lot of rain. Around the country, actually, not just Auckland. Not just Auckland. I mean, Northland, Todonga. A lot of places have been hit, yet we can't forget about all those other places. I am just speaking from experience,
Starting point is 00:29:25 seeing some of my friends in Auckland going through quite a lot of hard times at the moment because we had so much rain and a lot of people without power, without water. You haven't had power or water all weekend. Nope. At our house, we didn't have water for a little while, like an afternoon or a morning. One of them, anyway. Can't have impacted for a little while, like an afternoon or a morning. One of them, anyway.
Starting point is 00:29:45 Can't have impacted you that much. Well, at one point, I ended up going for a shower at one of my friend's houses because I really needed a shower because I was going to something, which is awesome. So good to see people helping each other out. But it was something in my friend's shower that disturbed me quite a lot that I think we need to discuss. Is this like that time you washed yourself with dog wash? I don't want to talk about that time.
Starting point is 00:30:12 Do you guys know that story? Do you guys know that story? I don't think I know that story. Brie went for a one night stand at someone's house and had a shower at first and accidentally used the dog wash on her body. It was worse because it was dog medication wash for, like, allergies. A bit for fleas, I reckon.
Starting point is 00:30:31 So it's stuff. Like dog pine and tassel. I'd had a couple of drinks and I didn't really notice, but I did think, I was like, this stinks. Guess what position she felt like after using that. Reverse cowgirl, not doggy. Hey, no, it's not like that time. But kind of related.
Starting point is 00:30:51 Right, okay. Because at my friend's place, I was looking around for the shower gel, the shower soap. And the only thing that I could find at my friend's place shower was a bar of bloody soap. Yeah, I've talked to you about this. That's fine. You're the one with the problem.
Starting point is 00:31:09 Am I the one with the problem or should we cancel bars of soap? Are they unhygienic? Let me put the question to you. Clint, obviously, you're a bar of soap kind of guy, so we know where you stand. Why do you think they're unhygienic, by the way? Because they go into all your bits and crevices.
Starting point is 00:31:26 Yeah, so you rinse it off before you use it. Oh, but that... Oh, but I just still... Okay, okay, okay, okay, okay. It's been in your bum crack. First of all, a bar of soap is a personal item, so it's very rare that you or you and your loved one will be...
Starting point is 00:31:39 that anybody else will be using it. Second of all, look outside, Bree. We're in the midst of an environmental crisis, okay? Every bar of soap you use is one less plastic bottle going into landfill. Yeah, but what do they wrap the bars of soap in? Cardboard. They come in a cardboard box. Not all soap.
Starting point is 00:31:56 Some come in like a plasticky kind of paper. It's still better than the bottle. Well, let's not bring that into it right now, okay? Leave the environment out of the conversation. Just leave the environment out of it. Every time I try and convince you that bar soap is a good idea, you tell me to leave the environment out of it.
Starting point is 00:32:10 Bar soap, you drop it on the ground in the shower. That's like a disease waiting to happen. Rinse it off. How dirty is your shower? Yeah. How dirty are your bits? You know. Oh, pretty dirty some days.
Starting point is 00:32:22 Producers, bars of soap, yes or no is the question. It's a no from me. Not because they're dirty. I think they're clean enough. I just find they don't work. They just like soap up and then I still feel gross afterwards. Like they dry you out. Gross.
Starting point is 00:32:36 I don't like it. What about Dove? It's got one quarter moisturiser. Alright. That's what the ad says anyway. Clint's doing paid posts for bars of soap. Can I just try and influence some people around Barzah Soap just briefly? We just need to get Ella's take.
Starting point is 00:32:49 Okay, Ella. Vegan, environmentalist. She's wearing a green party sweatshirt. There's a lot riding on this answer here, Ella. Yeah, the idea of it's great, but when you actually use it, it's annoying. Practically, it just slips out your hand. Okay, can I just... No, they're not dry.
Starting point is 00:33:04 They're gross. Stop saying they're not dry. Stop saying they're dry. They're not dry. Dry is a bit of soap. You use the same bar of soap on your nether regions, on your nethers, as you do on the rest of your body. Okay, let me tell you what your mother should have told you before you moved out of home. You don't have to rub the bar
Starting point is 00:33:20 on your body. You lather the bar up in your hands and you put it back on the shelf. And then you have hands full of soap, the same way that you do when you squirt liquid soap into your body. You lather the bar up in your hands and you put it back on the shelf and then you have hands full of soap the same way that you do when you squirt liquid soap into your hands. You rub it in your hands, you put the bar back and then you soap your body with your hands,
Starting point is 00:33:34 not with the bar. You do too. Have I just blown your mind? I've never thought about it like that. That's the issue. Why then? The only way the bar gets covered in pubes is when your flatmate shoves the bar in his pubes.
Starting point is 00:33:49 He shouldn't be doing that. Yeah, look, see, when I want to get clean, I don't want to be pulling pubes out of the thing. Will you give it a go? Not my body. Will you give it a go? And also, thirdly, lastly, we're in a cost of living crisis.
Starting point is 00:34:04 Bar soap is so cheap. It's like $3 for a box of three bars. Good bars too. Three bucks. Yeah, but I buy my shower gel by the gallon. Do you watch the Drew Barrymore show? No, I have a job. Oh.
Starting point is 00:34:19 Sometimes I watch it. Daytime TV, yeah. Yeah, daytime TV. I see a lot of clips online of different bits and pieces. I love Drew Barrymore. Yeah, she's excellent. I don't know if I love the show. Like, it's quite different and quirky, but
Starting point is 00:34:33 I saw this funny thing where she was interviewing Sam Smith, and she asked them, you know, if you were a Spice Girl, what kind would you be? What Spice would you be? What Spice would you be? What spice would you be? What spice would you be? And the conversation is just quite funny. Take a listen.
Starting point is 00:34:51 Spice Girl's name be? Oh, Chubby. Chubby. Yeah, Chubby Spice. It's a cute thing. Or Juicy Spice. Juicy. Juicy Spice.
Starting point is 00:35:04 Like Cheesy Spice. Tuna Spice. Tuna Spice. Or juicy spice. Juicy. Juicy spice. Like cheesy spice. Tuna spice. Tuna spice. I like juicy. What would yours be? I'd be naughty spice. Perfect. Juicy spice.
Starting point is 00:35:17 And it made me like think and I was like, what would I be? Yeah, we can do this. And then I thought we could deliberate within the team what kind of Spice Girl we would all be. You know, where would we fit into the group? Where are we in the Spice spectrum? Exactly. I think we can start with the easy ones. Pick them off, Ella.
Starting point is 00:35:35 Ella's the easiest. She's vegan. Vegan Spice. Oh, come on. You are. You're sitting there in your Green Party sweatshirt. You're vegan Spice. All right sweatshirt. You're vegan spice. All right.
Starting point is 00:35:46 I'll take it. Someone's got to be vegan spice. You slept in the bed with your guinea pigs last night so they didn't get wet. I didn't sleep. They were in the bath. Right. Okay. Vegan spice for Ella.
Starting point is 00:35:56 Producer Claude's a bit harder. Yeah. Because, I mean, we could just go vegetarian spice. And we've got, you know, all the different ranges. No, but she's not a full-time vegetarian. Yeah, she cheats sometimes. I think she's
Starting point is 00:36:10 cool, calm and collected spice. Yeah. Which might sound boring, but everybody needs an organised spice. Calm spice. Organised spice. Oh, she's calm spice.
Starting point is 00:36:19 I'll take it. I like that. Okay, vegan and organised spice. Okay, my turn. You girls are in the band. We've actually collaborated on Brie, and we've got a few suggestions here for you. Oh, here we go.
Starting point is 00:36:29 Claudia came forward and suggested you might be injury-prone spice. As you sit here with a wheat pack on your neck, just having taken the splint off your finger and recovered from your broken foot. My bruised heel. Bruised heel, that was it. Yeah, fair enough. Ella suggested you could be millennial side part Spice.
Starting point is 00:36:53 Well, you know, I feel like I'd be popular. There's a lot of like... Not with Gen Z, you wouldn't. Yeah, no, but... Yeah, the Spice Girls was a millennial band. Were they? Or were they exes? They might have been exes. Were they ex Or were they X? They might have been X.
Starting point is 00:37:05 Were they X? I think they might have been X's. They were late 90s. Yeah. Yeah. They were both. I think they were both. 97.
Starting point is 00:37:12 Let's just say they were both. We're not ready to give them up. No, we're not ready to give them up. Garlic Spice. Hey, I'm happy with that. Garlic Salt Spice. Lasagna Spice. ADD Spice.
Starting point is 00:37:23 Now, we landed on this one. I think this is the right one for you, Brie. If you were a spice girl, we think you would be lactose spice. Yes. I'm so lactose spice. Yeah. Or lactose intolerant spice. Okay, so you're on vegan spice, organized spice, lactose spice.
Starting point is 00:37:42 There's only one spice girl left. There's you. We were deliberating around this Weren't we girls We came up with We thought you could be It's pretty generic though Daddy spice
Starting point is 00:37:53 Daddy spice Because you're a dad Yeah that seems kinky that one Yeah so we Kind of swayed away from that Then we just thought straight Millennial spice Okay yeah
Starting point is 00:38:03 Like you know You're in that millennial category Yeah yeah We thought tiny nial spice. Okay, yeah. Like, you know, you're in that millennial category. Yeah, yeah. We thought tiny nipple spice. Okay, yeah. Which, I mean, fits you quite well. Emma Bunton's got that one sewn up already, though. But that's fine, yeah, there could be two tiny nipple spices.
Starting point is 00:38:17 And then we thought you could be awkward spice. Awkward spice? Yeah. After that comment you just made. And you've just sold it there. True, off the shoe face. I've never seen Amber Bunton's nipples. Haven't you? No.
Starting point is 00:38:37 And I didn't say that just because she's Baby Spice. Oh, because that fits. No, that's not why I said it. Right. See? Awkward spice. What are you talking about? Bree and Clint, back after this.
Starting point is 00:38:54 Bree and Clint. Here's the question. Is it acceptable to ask someone to swap seats on a plane? Depends. Did you soil your own seat? Well, you should definitely not be asking to swap then. Because then, you know. You made your bed and now sit in it.
Starting point is 00:39:13 You shat your bed. No, you shat the bed, now you lie in it. Yeah, that's how the saying goes. Yeah, that is how the saying goes. There's a woman that is. Shouldn't be. The saying should be if you shat your bed, don't lie in it. Yeah, that's the worst thing you can do.
Starting point is 00:39:27 That's the worst thing you can do. If you shit your bed. Get up. Burn the sheets is what the saying should be. Get up. Sort it out. Yeah. You're going to have a better sleep if you clean it up.
Starting point is 00:39:35 Oh, don't lay back down in it. Oh, now it's everywhere. It's all over you. Yeah. Everywhere. It's all over. A woman is going viral at the moment because she has weighed in on this question with a story of personal experience. So let me set the scene. She had purchased a premium economy seat. Ooh la la.
Starting point is 00:40:01 On a flight that was like I think about five or six hours. Yeah. So she purchased her seat, which obviously costs more because it's premium economy. And then she was sat next to a woman who she doesn't know. Okay. And then another person next to her. Okay. So there's three of them. And then the person who's in the aisle seat, a friend of that person came up from the back of the plane and has asked to swap seats with the woman who's sitting in the middle. So the woman in the middle is premium economy and someone from kettle class.
Starting point is 00:40:37 Economy. Came up and said, can we swap seats? Exactly. Take a listen. That's not okay. To how she feels about it so the aisle seat person is like traveling with another woman and her companion says i want to sit next to my friend and she looks at the asian lady next to me a little japanese lady she says let's switch seats i'm back in 26 we're in premium
Starting point is 00:41:00 economy okay we're like in row eight so the lady next to me is like oh you know we switch seats and so she starts getting and i'm like no and so the lady is like oh but it's a window seat it's so much better than a middle seat that she has and i was like except for the fact that we are traveling together so the little asian lady next to me is like half like standing up and she looks over at me and I go, sit down, Connie. And she sat down. I guess I was meaner than the other lady. If you wanted to sit next to your friend, you should have booked a ticket next to her. Yeah, that's not okay.
Starting point is 00:41:35 They were clearly trying to take advantage of a little old lady and take advantage of, I think, a language barrier too. Yeah, so the woman telling the story is also Asian, but obviously speaks amazing English. So she pretended to know this Japanese lady and then started speaking to her in Mandarin and the Japanese lady started talking back to her in Japanese, but the other two women didn't know, so they thought they knew each other.
Starting point is 00:42:04 Oh, right. So they were talking in languages that each other couldn't understand, but it had two women didn't know, so they thought they knew each other. Oh, right. So they were talking in languages that each other couldn't understand, but it had the effect and they were like, shit, she's on to us. Yeah, exactly. Those cheeky little shits. I know. Honestly. I think if you are doing that, you know exactly what you're doing
Starting point is 00:42:19 when you're asking to swap a seat that's, you know. So I think here's the rule. What's the rule? You said can you ask to swap a seat that's, you know. So I think here's the rule. What's the rule? You said, can you ask to swap seats? You can't ask to swap to a better seat. Someone in a better seat can ask to swap back to your seat and go, hey, I'd like to sit here. Would you swap with me?
Starting point is 00:42:39 My seat's actually better than yours. So I'm actually giving something up because I want to get back here. I want to get a window or I want to get an aisle or something like that. Or my friend's back there and I want to sit with my friend. You can have my better seat. Don't pressure people into a shitter seat just because you think you can. So dodgy.
Starting point is 00:42:54 Don't do it. Stop doing it. Bree and Clint. Bree and Clint. Dave Lutelli is the brown butter bean. He runs BBM Motivation. He was also my favourite person on Dancing with the Stars 2022. He was so good, eh?
Starting point is 00:43:08 He's also in charge, he's the man leading the charge to support people and whanau in South and West Auckland who have been hardest hit by the storm in Auckland. Yesterday, Dave met with Mayor Auckland Wayne Brown to let him know that his response to the natural disaster was a disgrace. And he joins us here on the phone right now to let you know how you can help out. Kia ora
Starting point is 00:43:30 Dave, how are you going? G'day Dave. Kia ora team, yeah, it's pretty hectic at the moment, but we're doing what we can. We've caught you in between meetings, I know you're coordinating getting food and blankets and clothes out to people who have been hardest hit by this. Everybody I know that can help getting food and blankets and clothes out to people who have been hardest hit by this.
Starting point is 00:43:45 Everybody I know that can help wants to help. So can you tell us exactly what you need at the moment, Dave? Yeah, look, you know, we need, the biggest thing is food and water. And it's really like, you know, even, you know, frozen meals. A lot of the people that, you know, they're people, they don't have electricity or their power's not working or their oven's broken. But that's really what it is. Blankets and also food.
Starting point is 00:44:14 That's the bigger thing. Dave, where can people drop this off at certain points or how can people get you the food and water that you need? Yeah, so our food share is at 30 Hobble Ave in Whitty. That's H-O-B-I-L-L, and that's in W-I-R-I, Whitty. And that's the central point. And then we distribute to other places that we help. But look, it's not just us.
Starting point is 00:44:38 There's lots of people doing amazing work. You know, the St. Leonard's Evacuation Centre is great. You know, the one that they're where I met Wayne yesterday, everyone's doing their best and they're finally going to move that. So at least Wayne listened. They're moving it from where it is to where it should be. Did he listen? Because yesterday there's a video on your Instagram of you talking to the Mayor, Wayne Brown,
Starting point is 00:44:56 who's copping a lot of heat at the moment for just not getting the support out to the people fast enough. How did he respond to what you had to say yesterday, Dave? You know what, he listened, because what I was saying was that they set up the Civil Defence Evacuation Centre in the totally wrong place. Sorry, I was having to move my car.
Starting point is 00:45:14 In the totally wrong place. And I said, you've got it set out in a random park where there's no need for it. There was nothing in Mangere. And that's where, like, the epicentre of this, you know, for our people. So that's why we thought of that. And he listened and they're moving it.
Starting point is 00:45:31 But still, you know, it's going to be done tonight. So, you know, all these things take time with local government and government for that matter. And people need the help now. They need, you know, the support, not in a couple of days or in a week. They need it right now, right, Dave? Yeah, well, that's the thing. Like, you know, community groups and mar need, you know, the support, not in a couple of days or in a week. They need it right now, right, Dave? Yeah, well, that's the thing. Like, you know, community groups and Mariah, you know, we acted right away. You know, I woke up and I said, we're doing this. You know,
Starting point is 00:45:53 let's go. I put a post out, said, we need this, we need that. And I gave people a central place where they could bring, you know, donations to because people wanted the help. And that was the amazing thing. Just as soon as we opened our doors, just a flood of food and blankets and clothes that we could then distribute out, you know, so people can come to get up and then we go out and deliver. We deliver all over Auckland. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:15 You did this in COVID as well, and you consistently do this, Dave. It's quite incredible and inspiring, the speed at which you get shit done. And I saw you reply to a comment like this on your Instagram over the weekend. Someone said, why won't you run for mayor? And I saw you comment something like, all in due time, brother. I don't want to launch the campaign early, but is that the vibe? Where can we submit our votes, Dave?
Starting point is 00:46:39 Yeah, look, I think it would be a natural progression. I just don't know where you can get more done. For me, I think that we sort of, you know, if you want to get things done, you have to be at the table, you know, where decisions are made, and it'll be good to lead that table, I reckon. We're talking to Dave Lutelli. He is helping people in South and West, all over the place,
Starting point is 00:46:58 but mainly South and West, who have been absolutely wasted by these floods over the weekend. How are people coping in the community, Dave? What are spirits like? What is it like on the ground out there at the moment? Well, the thing about the people that we're helping and seeing, they're very resilient. You know, I think a lot of that came out of COVID.
Starting point is 00:47:18 You know, they're there. A lot of them are distraught. You know, the people that are living in their cars, there was no real messaging. The communication of where to get help hasn't been hasn't been great so a lot of people just didn't know there is actually help out there but they just don't know where to go and like in covert there was a central page right that you're not against covert 19 where you go and get all this information whereas for this there hasn't been but you know i spoke i spoke to our deputy pm uh you know honorable carmelipollone this morning,
Starting point is 00:47:46 and she's assured me that that's been set up and that should be done by the end of today. Well, that's great news. One more time, Dave, for people listening that have food or water or blankets that they can donate, where can they drop it off? Yeah, just come to 30 Hobble Ave, and that's in Wiri.
Starting point is 00:48:02 And you can also, if it's easier, you can also make a donation at thebbmprogram.com There you go. The brown butter bean, Dave Lutelli.
