The ZM Podcast Network No doubt she'll turn up really flustered halfway through this and the first thing she'll say is Sorry, sorry, sorry I'm so sorry So sorry, I didn't know I'm so sorry She needs to stop apologising for everything Oh my lord, she needs to stop apologising so much

And when you tell her that she goes, oh okay, sorry You need, you just need one of the, um A shot collar? No, not a shot collar A swear jar for apologising My dad set that up for one of my sister's friends one time Filled that thing in no time For swear words or apologising?

Oh here she is Don't say anything In fairness to Anastasia Where have you been? I stole an apple That's a good excuse Hey well done Anastasia. Good from you, Stace.

We were positive. Let's clap it. Well done. We were positive you were going to come in here and start with sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry. And you know that... I've got a broken headphone jack. You can't hear us.

No, I can hear you. You just sound bad, like worse than usual. Good, and a bit of roasting as well. Someone's had a confidence boost this weekend. So I actually have had some personal development recently. This is a podcast, right? Yeah. No, this is live.

You're going to take it over. No, no, no. I just have got some personal development at the moment that I'm trying to say sorry less. That's my freaking headphone. That's exactly it. That's normally my joke. Okay, I've got some personal development for you.

Pay attention when we're doing the podcast intro Oh now that makes sense Can I just say Anastasia it's not your fault Because it's actually a built in thing for females To always be apologising for themselves Yeah no and I know shit Like one of my work mentors was like You need to stop saying

You sound like a bitch that just gets walked over And I don't want to be that All women have subconsciously built into themselves And that's mine and sam's fault so for that we just like to say sorry sorry oh that was unusual hearing it from you guys thanks for that um i got some personal development that i want to take off this is so exciting um for the first time ever i have started getting ads on my tiktok and, I hate it. God, I hate it. For some reason, I had this elite TikTok account where I didn't get a single ad.

Not an ad. Not one. When you guys were talking about TikTok ads and the ads you see too much and any TikTok ads, I had never seen a single ad on TikTok. And then over the weekend, it kicked in. And now every fourth TikTok is an ad. Really?

Oh, no. I've been the same, though. I've never got ads on TikTok. Really? Maybe the longer you spend on there, the sooner it kicks in. All I get is bloody Sarah V, Lego Masters New Zealand. Actually support that show. Go, Dane Wood.

Yeah, I get a lot of TVNZ ones. Oh, my God. I get so many. My algorithm is wrong. All my TikToks are right for me. Huh? All my ads are ads for bootleg makeup products. And epilators.

Oh, God, epilators. It's one of the worst machines. It's this one I get all the time where this girl puts her leg up above her head and it says on the screen, never have to wax down there again. What have you been TikTok-ing? Exactly right. Do you know what an epilator is, you two? Yeah, it pulls the hair out. It is. I used to have one when I was younger. again. What have you been TikToking? Exactly right. Do you know what an epilator is, you two? Yeah.

It pulls the hair out. It is. I used to have one when I was younger. Holy shit. Bad for you? It's a torture device. It literally hurts and it's not like waxing where you put it on and you kind of rip all the hairs out at once. It literally does every individual hair. It's so bad. And not fast either, right?

No, it's not fast at all yeah question oh no i was just um uh so oh i don't want to apologize shit i nearly did uh so you know how i walked in confidently with this apple that i'd stolen yeah is that from the bucket of apples out there yeah mainframe did you get a new phone no the apple ah that's good from you. That's good. No, it's a mainframe apple, so. Anyways, I'm trying to ask this without apologising. If it's a flowery apple, I'll have it. No, what's the etiquette behind me eating my fresh, juicy apple? No, it's a podcast.

Bad etiquette, but lucky for you, we're done. Are we doing a... Oh, I'll bite us out. Okay, crunch us out. Good crunch actually Breathe Nah I can tell it's flowery

I'm in line for a Good Samaritan award today. Did you know that? Why? What did you do? Went across the road and got a coffee. Yeah. The coffee was $5.10. The guy was having a bit of an off day.

I know, $5.10 oat milk though. Guy was having a bit of an off day and he was counting my change out. I gave him a $20 note and he starts counting it out. He gets out a $10 note. He gets out a $5 note. He gets out another $5 note. And he goes a $5 note. He gets out another $5 note. And he goes for the twos. He gets two twos.

And then he starts putting together 90 cents. And I said to him, no, you've given me way too much money here. I gave him $20, and I was about to leave with $24 and 10 cents and a coffee. Clint Roberts, the regular day Mother Teresa, I tell you. Yeah, he looked at me when I said, you're giving me too much money, and he was like, nobody has ever said that before. Well, to be honest, they should be paying people

to take an oat milk coffee away, because that stuff, you can't give it away. Bree and Clint. Bree and Clint. Tradies versus ladies. Right, here we go. The Tradies versus the Ladies. First game of the week, the Tradies.

The second one that you said. No. We were looking for Louis Tomlinson. Let's go to another question to decide this game. Here we go, question number seven. Oh, no. You didn't read the questions before you wrote your question. The next question is a Harry Styles question.

You can't do that one. Is this a tiebreaker question? This is a tiebreaker question. All right, we'll go to our default question. What colour undies am I wearing right now? Tony. Brad. Black.

He's done it, everybody. Well done. Oh, he's a worthy ass everybody. Well done. That game started out with so much promise, it went off the rails a bit at the end, but we've got a winner. For extra money, what colour underwear am I wearing right now? Nothing. Oh, I don't know how you did it, but you got it.

What would you say if you started dating someone and it was going really well, there was no red flags, you were like, I'm into this person, I think this could be a long-term thing? I'd say, man, I'm going to have to tell my wife about this. Well, I mean, you would, and then you find out they're still living at home with their parents. Oh, okay, interesting. Does it change your mind? How old are they?

They are 31. Oh. Are they living at home to care for their parents? No. Okay. It's for financial reasons. Let me read you this thing. Go on.

Give me the parameters. Yeah, this girl has found herself in this situation. So she says, I met a man recently and he's 31. He's amazing and we've been dating for a fair while. Yeah. I've seen no red flags, but I recently found out that he does still live with his parents. He's never ever moved out of home. Not once.

He says the reason is that he's saving for his own house, But he only has $10,000 in savings. I have been living out of home since I was 18. I'm now 28 and managed to save over $20,000 while paying rent. I don't want to be shallow, but finances are important. Also, I'm worried about differences in maturity. What do I do? My mate Nixon did this exact thing. He lived at home with his parents.

He's like, oh, it's to save money. 100%. He goes, I'm saving for a house. He's like, look at you idiots paying rent. I'm saving. Yeah, plus I love my parents. And then he just forgot to do the saving part. No, he did do the saving part.

I did. Because when he moved out of home, his parents' home, he bought a house with his then-fiancee, soon-to-be wife. Or maybe he'd already married her. I don't know but he hacked her

Wait he got married and he was still living at home I'm not sure on the timeline there but he got together with Was she living there with him? No No she was flatting

Wait so Like this story Like this story is she was flatting Wait wait wait wait wait So they never lived together before getting married No no they did

They did I'm not sure on the timeline of when the wedding came and the moving out, but when they moved in together, I'm pretty sure they moved into their first home together. Gotcha. Because he had managed to stay home all that time. Right, right. Well, I mean, worked out for him.

What do you think about this situation? Should she be worried? Well, look, let's look at it practically. They're always going to be staying at her house, aren't they? Like if they're going out. Apparently. They're not going to go back to his parents' house very often. I read further into the article and she said it is a little bit annoying

because she's not allowed to stay the night because his parents are quite religious and they said they don't want her staying in his room. He's 31. I know. Do you reckon when she comes over he has to leave the bedroom door open? Maybe. Just to be safe.

So she said there are no red flags. This is a red flag because it's impacting their relationship, isn't it? Isn't it? Yeah. Well, I guess in that way it is, but should she cut it off because of this reason? Oh, no, no, no, no.

Not just that. No. It needs to be a factor. If she's feeling good, they just need to work around it. That's fine. Put them on, how do you find a flat these days? Trade me marketplace. Listen to you, so unrelatable.

I've owned a house since 2016. I have no idea what it's like to flat in New Zealand anymore. Says the woman who lives in her girlfriend's house. Anastasia, how do you find a flat these days? Where do we list this guy? Because he sounds like a good guy otherwise. If you're asking, you don't find a flat anywhere. But no, Marketplace or Instagram stories,

that's always good so you can get a mutual. Do you bid on flatmate spots, do you? Yeah, yeah. Do you bid on flatmate spots, do you? Yeah, yeah. Do you do trades and stuff? Do people put like flatmates on Trade Me? Clinton Roberts. Annoying. Yeah, right.

I will trade for this age group. Anastasia's literally in the man market at the moment. Accepting Jacob Eldoradi knockoffs. Genuinely, is it a red flag for you if you're seeing a guy and you find out he still lives at home? No, perfectly fine if he's got savings, like he's saving for a house. 10 grand over that space is not savings. No offence, Anastasia, but you can't ask her.

No. She's 24. True. And I wouldn't find it a big issue if I was 24 and probably dating people similar age. We'll just go back to her quickly then. If you were dating a 31-year-old man and he still lived at home, red flag? Huge red flag, unless he's got a house deposit and he's going to buy a house soon.

Okay, there it is. Well, there you go. She's very financially focused. I know, right? She knows what she wants. There you go. Bree and Clint. Is it a deal breaker if you find out they're still living with the parents?

In their 30s. In their 30s. I mean, I think it's all age related. Also situation related too. Like if they've just moved back to the country. Oh, it's different. That's different. What sort of timeline are you giving them

to get back on their feet? Oh, at least three weeks. No, I'm just kidding. We're asking you guys this afternoon on 0800DIALZM, how old are you and do you still live at home? Sarah's here. Hi, Sarah.

Hi, Sarah. Hi. Who is it? Is it you who's still living at home? No, it's my ex-husband. Okay, this is interesting, Sarah. So when did you guys break up? 2003, and he's still living at home with my oldest daughter

and also my moko. Oh, yeah, okay. Okay, right. How old is he? He's 52. Right. Does he need some support? Is that what it is?

Is he leaning on mum for a bit of support? I think he needs a pet on the back and a burp, I think. Sarah. mum for a bit of support. I think he needs a pet on the back and a burp, I think. Sarah! Savage! Now, his inability to look after himself, was this a mitigating factor when you guys came to break up? No, I took care of everything. He can't take care of anything. Yeah, right. Right, so I'm saying... No, no, no, no. His mother does everything for me. He pretty much needs to, yeah. Wipe his bum for him. Yeah, yeah, that's the one.

So were you, did you become the mother when he moved in with you? Pretty much, but I was mainly focused on my children. I mean, my oldest daughter, she's 24, and my son's 22 now. Have they moved out of home? No. All right, okay. That's all right. That's not that old.

Well, no, I just ask as a dad myself with two daughters. I'm just curious about what age they might move out. Like 38? The thing is that I've always been, I've lived out of home since I was 16. So I try to teach my children to be, you know. To get out. Independent.

Yeah. Yeah, okay. Thank you, Sarah. My sister lived at home for a long time, like until she was 32. Oh, yeah. And she got into a serious relationship with her now husband. They got married.

And I was like, oh, here it is. This is going to be her. She's finally going to move out. It's going to be her launching moment where her and him move out when they got serious. Now he moved in with my parents and her. Joel's here. G'day, Joel. Hi, Joel.

G'day, guys. How are? Are you calling us from your parents' house where you live, Joel? No, not quite. Okay. Tell us the deal, guys. How are? Are you calling us from your parents' house where you live, Joel? No, not quite. Okay. Tell us the deal, Joel. So I lived with my parents until I was 27 and got married. Okay.

We moved out, rented. Then we realised it was expensive living out. So we both moved back to my parents. As a married couple? As a married couple. Yeah. There was a bedroom in between. Right.

Okay. Oh, no. And then we bought a tiny house and parked it on my parents' land. So we now live in their paddock. Joel. Okay. All right. Joel, do you ever think you will fly the coop completely?

Well, see, there's the thing. Because it is free rent there, and they've got a huge veggie garden, so food bill's pretty small, especially with how it is at the moment. And so we are going to be saving, and within the next two

years, we'll hopefully have a deposit to buy our own bit of land with a house on it. We'll park our tiny house on the back, rent out the house, they can pay for the mortgage. Oh, see, Joel, here we are having a laugh and being like, Joel's still living at home

and you're the one laughing all the way to the bank. There are parents listening to this conversation and listening to Joel right now going, get him off the air! Shut up, Joel! Get him off the air! I want my games room! Stop making it sound so good for everyone.

29 years, I want my space back. I want my games room. Stop making it sound so good for everyone. 29 years, I want my space back. I want my own bathroom. Bree and Clint. I had a life-changing moment yesterday. Did you? When I saw something on TikTok, and I'm not going to over-exaggerate, but it blew my mind. But you're not going to over exaggerate.

Not going to over, I'm not one to over exaggerate, but this is crazy. Okay. Look, I thought we could attempt what I saw on TikTok this afternoon, which is why I got I'm keen to have my mind blown. Mate, I'm going to do it for you live. Okay.

Produce Anastasia, if you can bring in my prop, which is a Toblerone bar. Mm-hmm. Have you seen this? Yeah, I've seen it. Oh, you've seen it? Yeah. Go ahead and do it.

Oh, I'm devastated. And then I'll give you some thoughts. I'll give you some feedback on this. Fact or cap, is it real? So the hack that I saw, and everyone, if you haven't seen a Toblerone bar before,

where have you been? Not the airport. Not the airport, that's for sure. So when I normally eat a Toblerone bar before. Where have you been? Not the airport. Not the airport, that's for sure. So when I normally eat a Toblerone, obviously I just snap off a piece of chocolate. That's what you do because it's all the little triangles. It's a big commitment, a piece of

Toblerone. And you kind of, when you eat one, you just kind of break that off, right? But they're quite thick. And I always end up hurting myself because it's quite difficult to do. I saw on TikTok that apparently you're not meant to snap you're meant to pinch.

So you're meant to pinch the two together and it'll snap off. Are we ready? Go on, give us a demonstration. Have you seen this? Sue Chef Sam? Or is this how you've always done it? Yeah, I've seen this. Yeah, but have you done it? Have you guys done it? I actually haven't. Do it. Just

do it. I haven't seen it. Oh, you want me to do it? Do it. Oh, you want to do it now? Do it. And then I've got some thoughts for you. Do it. Okay, do your mind blowing TikTok. She's going to pinch it over the road. Oh my god! That is insane! No, wait! Look! I mean...

Look! Okay, alright. Stop, stop, stop. It's so easy. Stop, stop. I could do this all look. Okay, all right. Stop, stop, stop, stop. It's so easy. Stop, stop. I could do this all day. It's so easy. Oh, my God. Stop. Okay.

So it's really easy. I've got two questions. Yeah. How hard is it to do the other way? So just do it the other way. Yeah. Do you not remember how hard it is? No, clearly not.

Come straight off. It's quite soft. My issue is with the pinching, you're touching the next piece of chocolate. You're putting your fingers on the next piece of chocolate. Yeah, but there is no issue because that just means that bit's mine and that bit's mine.

So a Toblerone for you is a single serve. Is that what you're saying? This is just for me. Toblerone for one. Yeah, you don't share a Toblerone. Well then, in that case, great fact, great hack. Mine. Mine.

Mine, mine, mine. These are all these bits are mine now. I don't want them. You've fingered all of them now. Mine. Bree and Clint. From iHeartRadio. This is the latest.

Nodine McCarthy, he is having a super wild long weekend in Las Vegas. If you follow him on Instagram, there's a lot going on there. If you want to vicariously live through someone, Dean McCarthy is your man. How much Toblerone you got in your mouth, by the way? It's quite dry in my mouth. It's quite sticky. Need a bit of water. You have some water.

I'll tell you about Taika. His next big project is looking like it's going to be shot right here in New Zealand. He's going to bring some of that big Hollywood money back to Wellington, to be specific. Paramount TV Studios has confirmed that Taika is co-writing and directing the pilot of the Apple TV series adaptation of the 1981 film Time Bandits. Okay. Do you know that movie? No, I don't know that movie. He's making a TV show about Time Bandits.

Okay. And they're going to shoot it here in Wellington. There's also rumours that they'll shoot some of it in the South Island as well, because I didn't realise we had paparazzi, but someone has spotted Taika Waititi visiting Larnac Castle in Dunedin. He was in Glenorchy as well in central Otago

and he was pictured in Dunedin with Jermaine from Flight of the Conchords. I don't know if it's paparazzi or just, you know, Karen with her mobile phone going, oh, I think that's Taika Waititi, love. I think that's him. I know Taika anywhere. And there's Jermaine from Fight of the Conchords. Yeah, I know Jermaine.

Where's Murray? Bree and Clint. Before the song, I gave you guys a bit of a challenge and I said, look, there's a story that's come out of Queensland this week where a bride has talked about how she had to be pulled off the dance floor during her first dance because she had blood all over the back of her wedding dress. I mean. Bad colour.

As a woman, to my fellow women, it is our worst nightmare. Oh, yeah, yeah. It is not ideal, especially on your wedding day. And obviously, she was quite upset. You haven't brought a backup either. There's no backup outfit at the wedding. No. Well, some people have two wedding dresses, don't they?

They have their ceremony and their reception. But then everyone would go, why did you get back into the other dress? Yeah. I thought this was your reception. Why did you get back into the really big, uncomfortable one that's not good for dancing? But you can't dance in.

How about you shut up and don't ask questions? A lot of people are texting through with a lot of different answers. Someone said she sat in some punch. Someone else said must be a leech. Someone else said nosebleed. Someone else said, a few people said nosebleed. Someone said she had a scab on the back of her leg.

Oh, gross. Someone said did her ears bleed after hearing you guys sing Friday Okie? I didn't pre-read that text, but we appreciate that. That's not what it was. Look, a lot of good answers. Let's take a listen to her explaining what happened on the day and what it actually was from. During this photo session,

we did have to go into some really long, sludgy grass to get some nice photos. This is where I think the leeches came into the picture. And, yes, I said leeches. There were three. So there was one underneath my foot, one in, like, the pit of my knee, and there was another one just, like, crawling up my leg. Leeches.

She had leeches all over her leg, and they had sucked so much blood out of her that it was all over her wedding dress. Australia, right? Hey, Australia. Nowhere is safe. How's Australia for you? I forgot that this was in Australia when I was lodging my guests. I should have gone with like crocodile. Giant spider.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. There was an anaconda on the dance floor. Have you ever had a big leech on you? I've never had a leech on me. Oh, you haven't? Why would I ever have had a leech on me? Me and my siblings, we used to go swimming in our dam because, I mean, farm kid life.

And I remember we'd always get out and we'd say, right, who's found the biggest leech on them? And we'd have to pull these leeches off. But one time I got out of the dam and I felt like there was something up my nose and I pulled this big leech out of my nostril. So technically it was a nosebleed as well. Yeah, right.

I'm so glad to live here sometimes. Well, there you go. Hashtag Farm Kid Live. If you guessed leeches. You are correct. If you guessed leeches. You are correct. If you guessed wedding day leeches. Obviously it was that. Duh.

What else would it have been? A lot of people who got it right. Nice work, guys. Every now and then on this show, we do unpopular opinions. I came across an unpopular opinion today about a New Zealand icon said by a guest in this country. Oh, no. Oh, it got my back up. Oh, so you don't agree.

Oh, it got my back up. Oh, no, I don't agree. You don't agree. No. No, that's why it's unpopular. If I agreed, I'd be like, hot take. But this is, no, this is wrong. I'll give you the facts.

You tell me if I'm overreacting, okay? Okay. The British High Commissioner to New Zealand's husband has got himself into some controversy after he tweeted this. His name's Toby Fisher and he wrote, After four years of living in Wellington, it's time to be straight up with all of you. The bucket fountain is the crappiest fountain ever. Do not tag me.

I mean. And when I saw that, I said, excuse me? The bucket fountain. I couldn't agree more with him. What? The bucket fountain. The bucket fountain is crap. Wellington icon.

The bucket fountain. Look, I mean, he said, what did he say? Is the worst. Crappiest. He referred to it as the crappiest fountain ever. My guy. Look. I don't know if it's the crappiest, but I wouldn't say it's great.

That. Yeah, Bree. You know what I mean? You're on the right track, Bree. Like, do you know what I mean? Like, it's all right. Yeah. Look, it's caused such. Like. It's a bit of an eyesore. I wouldn't be against expanding this view to all of Cuba Street.

We're going to turn you off. Okay, I don't agree with that. I don't agree with that. Cuba Street's awesome. It has caused such a diplomatic issue that his wife has had to weigh in. She's the actual British High Commissioner to New Zealand. He's just the husband. He's just the husband.

Shooting his mouth off. He shouldn't have an opinion. She has written as British High Commissioner to New Zealand. I'd like to be clear that the opinions of my husband at Toby Fisher in no way represent my views or the position of the British government, of which she is a representative. She went on to say,

the Bucket Fountain is a well-loved part of Wellington's heritage. Oh, kiss ass. Say it for what it is. It's okay. Look, look. It looks like a bit it looks a bit Child's Play It's okay. Look, look. It looks a bit child's playground-ish. Yes, I agree with that. That's the multicolour.

Which isn't a bad thing. But it's magic. The water comes down the top and slowly the buckets fill up. And, yeah, surely if you're just standing outside Cosmic Corner waiting to get a vape refill, you might accidentally get a bit too wet. But that's part of the allure. That's part of the charm. Look, I'm not saying it's the worst one I've seen.

I'm just not saying it's the best. Wow. Okay. You know? So maybe this isn't... We're 50-50 in this room. A popular opinion. Sam really wants to get back on here.

Yeah, I know. Sam's not happy. Maybe it's not that unpopular an opinion. No, it's not. I think they could do better, is what I'm saying. I think they deserve better. I think... It's on the cover of a'm saying. I think they deserve better. I think... It's on the cover of a Fat Freddy's drop album.

It's tradition. How much more iconic could it get? You can't get rid of tradition. I think they need to erect a new one. Okay. Well, look, it's done its job, this opinion, hasn't it? Look at us. I love that.

Every single time. I love that these two people are having a fight on Twitter. And then can you imagine her like behind closed doors? What's his name? Tony. Toby. Toby, I told you not to get on the Twitter. And now look, I'm having to clean up your dirty work.

It's a sensitive issue, Toby. Okay, I'm out here trying to do some British Royal commissioning and you're out here throwing out your hot takes. Can you shut up, please? You're not making me any bloody friends, Toby. Shall we open up seeing as we're nice and calm and level-headed at the moment, shall we throw the phone open for some unpopular opinions?

Yeah, why not? You got one to kick us off? Yeah, I'll kick us off. Here we go. Unpopular opinion, but I don't believe dark chocolate is healthier and I don't care if it is, frankly, because it's gross. You've really upset some...

Is that an unpopular opinion? You've really upset some paleo people with that take. I think it might not be unpopular. That's the only thing they've got to look forward to this afternoon. I think people might be on board. As a single square of 80% dark garner. Like, you know what people love to do when they're eating dark chocolate? They're like, you know, this 92%...

92% cacao-er. I'm like, 92% yuck. Bree and Clint. We just read out a hot take from the, I'm going to get this credentials right, the husband of the British High Commissioner to New Zealand. So the British Government's representative in New Zealand who basically went on Twitter and said the bucket fountain in Wellington sucks. He said it's the worst one ever.

He said his exact words, and we've got to be careful to quote him correctly here because he is a lawyer and I don't want him to sue us. His words were, it's the crappiest fountain ever. Right. Okay, not worst, crappiest. Crappiest? Which is worse than worst.

Why don't you have a go at Lord of the Rings? Why don't you just say you think the beehive is ugly? Why don't you say you don't enjoy fish and chips? Why don't you say that you can beat Wellington on a good day? Run at us. You agree with him though. I don't agree that it's the crappiest one I've ever seen. I think it could be improved is what I'm saying. I don't agree it's the crappiest one I've ever seen. I think it could be improved is what I'm saying.

I don't agree it's the crappiest. Do I think it's the best? No. Well, maybe I'm living in a state of bucket fountain disillusion because there are people that agree with you. Harrison's here. Hi, Harrison. Hi, Harrison.

Hello, mate. How are you? Good. Say what you want to say about the bucket fountain, mate. Don't hold back. Oh, mate, it's a bloody ice sore, that thing, isn't it? Where do you live, Harrison? I currently reside in Walkworth,

but I work on Cuba Street for eight months doing shop fit-outs. I walk past that fountain every day. Harrison, you wouldn't happen to be married to the British High Commissioner, would you? Oh, you never know. You never know. Toby, is that you calling up? Don't you think it's got a... Hey, hey, hey, hide my identity, would you? Don't you think it's got a... Hey, hey, hey, hide my identity, would you?

Don't you think it's got a bit of a, like a, I don't know, like a bit of Kiwi charm to it? Yeah, it's a bit shit, but so are we. You know, it kind of embodies our personality. No, I don't agree with that. We're giving the bucket fountain, like us New Zealanders, is giving it a red hot crack, Harrison, don't you think? Oh, it's trying, mate.

I tell you that much for sure. I reckon they changed the buckets into jandals and it can be the jandal fountain. I would go to see that. How much water does a jandal hold? Oh, you kind of, you know, shape them so that they carry a little bit of water. All right.

Thanks, Harrison. What is the best structural feature in Walkworth, by the way? What's your guys' town attraction? It'd be the Walkworth Clock, mate, down on the main street. Excuse me, the Walkworth what? Isn't it a good... Walkworth Clock.

Oh. Yeah, easy on there, fella, easy on there. Easy on there. Sorry, I mean,

the other thing not too bad in Walkworth either. This person's caught up anonymously to give another unpopular opinion. It's not about

the Bucket Fountain, is it, Anonymous? No, it's about coffee. Oh, coffee. Okay, I'm ready to hear this is it, Anonymous? No, it's about coffee. Oh, coffee. Okay. Okay, I'm ready to hear this. You just state

unpopular opinion, but, and then you can say whatever you want. Unpopular opinion, but coffee is absolutely disgusting. Anonymous. I mean, technically, coffee is bean juice, isn't it? Is it? I didn't know that. Yeah, isn't it? Is it?

I didn't know that. Yeah, well, it comes from coffee beans and they just squeeze it. They're just mixed water with beans. So, yeah, it's bean juice. Oh, random. What do you drink for a bit of get up and go? Hot chocolate and, yeah. Hot chocolate? What about a chai latte?

Oh, come on, anonymous grower. No, no chai lattes, no caramel lattes. Nothing to do with coffee at all. What about a gumboot tea? Oh, no, not tea either, just my hot chocolate. And just on another topic, what do you think about the Wellington bucket fountain? I don't even know what that is.

See, this has rocked my world this afternoon. I thought this was as iconic as the All Blacks, but it turns out I could be wrong. There you go. Bree and Clint. I haven't actually told you as the All Blacks, but it turns out I could be wrong. There you go. I haven't actually told you I was going to ask you this, but I want to ask you a very personal question. I'm glad you're asking me on this platform. Yeah, that's okay.

You are an open and honest person. Pretty open and honest, yeah. And I think you and your partner have quite a progressive relationship. Okay. Are you and your partner, are you into fubbing? What the hell is fubbing? Just answer the question. are you into fubbing? What the hell is fubbing? Just answer the question. Are you a fubber?

I'm going to say no because I don't know what it is. You're not a fubber. What is it? Is your partner into fubbing? What the hell is fubbing? Just tell me the truth. Is she a fubber? I don't know what fubbing.

Does she like to fub? What is fubbing? Does she fub you off? Do you fub her off? This sounds so wrong. It's not going to be dirty. What is it? You're not a fubbing? Does she fub you off? Do you fub her off? This sounds so wrong. It's not going to be dirty. What is it? You're not a fubber?

No. Because I've got to be honest, I've been... You thought I was. I've been fubbing my wife a bit recently. Yeah, I have. And to be fair... Have you fubbed her up the wrong way? To be fair, she's fubbed me.

She fubs me back. Oh, really? So, yeah. Fubbing... Bit of a fub and tug. She fubs me back. Oh, really? So, yeah. Fubbing. Bit of a fub and tug. Fubbing is the term coined for phone snobbing your partner. When you pay more attention to your phone than you do to your partner.

God, okay. I'm glad you... A.k.a. fubbing. So, I ask you again, Brie Thomas-Sell, do you fub your partner. God, okay, I'm glad you... AKA fubbing. So I ask you again, Brie Thomas-Sell, do you fub your partner? Look, I mean, I feel like this is a common argument in a lot of relationships in our generation. Look, I'll say I have been guilty of that from time to time. Good, I'm glad you can deal with this.

I think we all are because our phones are ubiquitous in our lives. They're unavoidable. Big word. They're omnipresent. You know, everything is on there. Ooh, another big word. You got another one? They are everywhere.

Damn, I ran out of words. So close. But like, if I want to turn the air conditioning on, I've got to use my phone. If I want to turn some music on, I've got to use my phone. If I want to order some dinner, I've got to use my phone. If I want to order some dinner, I've got to use my phone. You use it for everything now. So it

invades your personal life, doesn't it? And when you are sitting on the couch relaxing with your partner at the end of the day, if you then choose to have your entertainment on your phone, then you could end up fubbing your partner up the wrong way. You're right. You could fub them right off. Super common

disagreement that happens in relationships. There's been a study done on it. They've tried to figure out not whether we're doing it or not, just how harmful it is. Because things have changed. Like I said, your phones are just... The world is a different place. It is, unfortunately.

So they studied 450 people and they found that 95% of people felt fubbing was not personal and it was acceptable that phones were often used simply out of habit. Like you just default to taking it out of your pocket. You shouldn't get angry at someone because it's not completely their fault

is what you're saying. Yep, that's exactly right. They make them addictive and you can't help it. Yeah, well, I mean, you should try still. You should still try and... You know what's interesting? You should try and limit your fubbing. Yeah.

Well, you really should. Because if you fub too much, they say... It'll fall off. It means you're playing with it. Bree and Clint. Let's play Guess That Voice. Guess That Voice, the fun game where voices of celebrities are played and Clint and I have to guess who it is.

First one to guess three correct wins. Holly's here. Kia ora, Holly. Hi, Holly. Hi, how's it going? Good. Thank you, mate. Who do you think is going to win this week?

Pick it correctly, you can have the KFC. Is it me or Bree? Oh, Bree. Right, Holly, you're on my team. That means, Kennedy, you'll be joining Team Clint. Amazing. Wait, did we get these guys to play last week? Yes.

Oh, that's right. You guys have to play. Do you want to play, Holly and Kennedy? You want to be involved? Yeah, we can do that. Yeah, okay. Okay, Bree and I will go first, and then you guys can have a round after that, right, Anastasia?

Yep, that's how it works. Cool. With Ellen, yeah, so you guys can have a round after that, right, Anastasia? Yep, that's how it works. Cool. With Ellen, yeah, so you guys know how the rule works. You just need to yell out your name and then who you think it is. Oh, no, just who you think it is, eh? No, you've got to buzz in. You've got to buzz in. Cool.

There's too many games we play on this show. Sorry about that, guys. This week's theme, famous talk show host with obviously Ellen having her last show last week. Got it. So with that, let's hear talk show host number one. You're the face out front. Oh, there's two. Five, four.

Whoopi Goldberg? Oh, that's incorrect. Three guest clubs? I have no idea, so I'm going to have to play the rest of the clubs. Okay. So we're both back in. Okay, here we go. You're the face out front.

Break, Oprah. That was my other guess. That's correct. But it's everybody back there that actually makes it work. Guys, what a great job you've done. I mean, she's the guy. It was way too hoarse at the front for me to know that was Oprah. Yeah, she can.

Her voice changed over the years a little bit. Sounds like Oprah's been on the SIGs. Yeah, that is the most recent interview she's done. Holly and Kennedy, you guys need to buzz in with your names if you know what it is, okay? Okay, perfect. Who was on whose team again, by the way? Holly's on my team, Kennedy's on your team. Go Kennedy.

Alright, guys. Suck it, Holly. I hope you lose. Leave Holly alone. She's going to own this. Your names here, buzzers, let's see talk show host number two. They know how much I love them and we're all feeling emotional. Yes, Kennedy, get in there. Linda Jenner. That's correct.

You've nailed it. Oh, what? Because we have, after this, two more shows. Sounds like Dory to me. I'm acting a bit like Dory right now. I was actually like, Bree, that's a cartoon character. Then I realised. Awesome. All like, Brie, that's a cartoon character. Then I realised. Awesome.

All right. Awesome job, Kennedy. It's great to be in Clint. Now let's hear talk show host number three. Your accent there is great. Clint. Oh, I know who that is. That is the famous Irishman,

Graham Norton. That's correct. Girls. I mean, there's a whole range of accents. Yours is really good. Holly, you need to get this one to keep us in it. No pressure though. You've got it. You've got it. Yours is really good. Holly, you need to get this one to keep us in it. No pressure, though. You've got it.

Holly, be hot on that buzzer. Kennedy, foot on the throat, okay? Get it done. No, I'm going to try and stop it. Come on, Holly. Alright, guys, let's hear talk show host number four. I grew up in upstate New York, a town called Sorry, Mr. Horton. Oh, Kennedy

for the win. What do we reckon? Jimmy Fallon. She's done it. I grew up in upstate New York, a town called Sargatys, New York, a beautiful town. I had a great childhood. There are so many Jimmys too. That was touch and go there. That was very close to being Kimmel.

I probably would have said Kimmel. Nice work, Kimmel. I'm sorry, Brie. No, I'm sorry. I'm sorry to you. We tried our best. It's voices. I can't quite put my... You were on the voices. Maybe. And I'm proud of you, Holly. I talked a big game, but

proud of you for giving it a go. Maybe guess the voice is not the game for you. Maybe the ones that make song challenges for you, Holly. Bree and Clint. So what was it that this grandad confessed I believe to his grandchild? Oh yeah.

On his deathbed. Cleared his conscience before he kicked the bucket. That's exactly it. It's exactly what it is. This is the message that I saw on a website where someone has written, my granddad on his deathbed told me that he had indoor gardened with Nana's sister, but he'd never told a soul and he didn't want to die with the secret.

My Nana is still alive. What do I do now with this information? Granddad, you dirty old dog. You salty dog. Now, I imagine he didn't use the indoor gardening term. No, he didn't. Or was he a listener of the Brian Clint show and he's aware that that's the code word for adult fun time?

I would say he was a listener. No, but he didn't use that term. So let me get it straight. He did the dirty with his wife's sister. Correct. Do we know timeframes? Do we know if it was before they were married, after they were married?

By the way it was written, I believe it was whilst they were married, whilst they were together. Why would he tell you that? I don't know. Maybe it was like a guilt thing. Because you do hear a lot about people. So tell your wife.

If that's what you're trying to do, granddad, if you do hear a lot about people... So tell your wife. Yeah. If that's what you're trying to do, Grandad, if you're trying to clear your conscience, and I assume he's passed away, and I don't mean to speak ill of the dead, but you're just putting the burden on me. But you don't... I now have to live with this burden.

I was quite happily going along with my life before you lumped this on me, Grandad. Now you, you're free. You're dead. Now I've got to look at Grandma every day and know that you cheated on her. He's took the easy way out, hasn't he? Hasn't he? But I mean... He's like, ah, now I can die. You're free. You're dead. Now I've got to look at grandma every day and know that you cheated on her. He's took the easy way out, hasn't he? Hasn't he?

But I mean. He's like, ah, now I can die. I kind of get it. You don't want to leave things on a bad note. But he has left them on a bad note because of him. Not for him. He's off now, you know, peaceful. If he really wanted to clear his conscience, you'd tell grandma, right?

Yeah. You'd tell grandma. You do, but I mean, that's not what grandma wants to hear. I think, what do you think that this person, what should they do now? Do they tell Nana? Do they not tell Nana? This is what I'm saying. You've now made it their problem.

Is Nana's sister still alive? That's a big part of it. You know? So, okay, there's a solution. If Nana's sister is still alive, go and see her and say, listen here. Is this true? Listen here, you sluzzer. You don't say that to your

grandmaster. Grandad told me what you did. Now, I need to give this responsibility back to you. You need to go and tell your sister. I think leave it lie. You know, I mean, why trudge up things that happened 40,

50, who knows how long ago. I agree with you, but Grandad should have let it lie. Yes, he should. Grandad should have. Well, he's told a lie for a long time. He should have died with the lie. He should have, but I mean, he needed to clear his conscience. Maybe it was the morphine. Who knows, Clint?

It's all questions. Sure, we haven't thought about that. Maybe it was, yeah. The drugs. Yeah. I mean. In which case you go, shh, shh, granddad. No, you didn't. No, you didn't.

Shh, shh, no. You're lying. It's just the drugs. Come on, granddad. Sleep. It's okay. We don't need to talk about these things. This is so gross.

I'd be so awkward if my granddad was like, I love. Let me tell you about a time that I did something pretty naughty. He starts going into graphic detail and you're like, granddad! We've asked the question, who have you indoor gardened with but never told a soul? A lot of feedback for granddad, by the way. Yeah, quite a lot of feedback. Granddad confessing that he got with Grandma's sister back in the day

after they were married on a deathbed confession to a grandchild? No, Grandad. No. That's bad grandadding. Yeah. We blame the morphine. You know, poor Grandad. But we want to hear your stories on 0800DIALZM. A lot of texts coming through. Obviously

not many people wanting to come on air because it is quite secretive. We haven't found a single person who's willing to talk to us on air, but I get that, so we'll just read them. There's a lot of good texts, though. Someone texted through and said, It wasn't me, but my dad indoor gardened with my mum's best friend for five years somehow without her finding out um and it's really

sad she passed away without ever finding out the truth what a shocking story that's so sad um someone else texted through and they said dirt bag yeah he got away with it didn't he someone else said my sis i indoor gardened with my sister-in-law to be on the eve of the wedding. See, that's dirtbag material. I said no judgement. Sorry. I'm going to find it really hard not to comment on these. What is the sister up to in that situation?

Yeah, I mean... What is the sister up to? Don't blame the sister. The guy's got a commitment to someone. He was the one getting married. I mean, the sister's in the wrong too. How do you was the one getting married. I mean, the sister's in the wrong too. How do you attend the wedding after that? I mean, how do you get married after that? Was she a bridesmaid?

Anyway, okay, yeah. Someone said... I won't comment on this next one. My ex's best friend. My ex was awful and showed his true colours and lost all his friends and his best friend was there for me through the ugly breakup.

I kind of regret it, but YOLO. Actually, I feel like that one's fairly common. Yeah, that one is quite common. Yeah. You know you've done wrong if your best mate isn't on your side in something? If your ex gets your best mate in the breakup, then you were wrong. Gets your best mate in the breakup. A lot of texts coming through that I can't read out because they are too saucy.

We didn't ask for names of celebrities, by the way. Yeah, there's a few celebrities coming through. We will not be reading out those. We didn't ask for you to just brag about your... Your celebrity triumphs. Your sexual celebrity conquests, yeah. Someone said, it was my best mate's sister, never told a soul. Best mate's sister, oh yeah.

Someone else texted through, because obviously the term we use on our show, indoor gardening. Indoor gardening, yeah. And someone said, I thought you guys meant Grandad and the sister were growing illegal substances together. They were indoor gardening. No, see, that would be a good deathbed confession from Grandad and the sister were growing illegal substances together. They were indoor gardening. No, see, that would be a good deathbed confession from Grandad. Yeah, that'd be, yeah.

He'd be like, shot, Grandad, you're the man. He'd be like, dope, Grandad. He's like, no, yeah, literally, dope. If you go into the attic. Seriously. Yeah. All the stuff is still there. Whatever you want.

You can set it up. It's up for grabs. Thanks for your honesty, everybody. And not surprisingly, yeah, not a single person willing to talk. Voices are too familiar in New Zealand, eh? It is. I mean, there's not many. That's Gavin.

Not many, too many degrees of separation. Bree and Clint. Aye. It's my birthday. It's my birthday. Bree and Clint's birthday banger. It's good to reiterate because there is new people, you know, joining. And it would be confusing.

Do we have any other code words? Just that, I think. I think just that. That's all you need to know. Once you get your head around that, you are good to go. And you need to know what birthday banger is too. It's where you guys call us up. We'll take your birthday and we'll figure out what was the song

top of the charts on your 16th birthday. Then we'll play our favourite song out of the three. Hi, Holly. Welcome to birthday banger. Hi, Holly. Welcome to Birthday Banger. Hi, Holly. Hi. How was your weekend, mate? Quite lazy, actually.

It was crappy weather, so I spent most of the time inside doing book work. Delightful. But how good's a rainy weekend? Yeah. I do like it. What's your birthday, Holly? 26th of August, 94.

All right, mate. You were 16 in 2010. Let me take you back to your 16th birthday and you might have been bopping to this. Yeah, banger! I'm happy with that. That's good, eh? Yolanda be cool.

We speak I saw them when they were touring the song. They played it three times in their DJ set. I mean, solid from them. Holly, you got a good one, I reckon. Yeah, wait there. We'll do a birthday banger for Ruz. G'day, Ruz.

Hello, Ruz. Hey, how's it going? Good, thank you, mate. How are you? Not too bad, not too bad. Just driving back from work. Oh, nice. Okay.

What, you finished for the day or you're going to work? No, no, I'm going out for dinner, actually, meeting my family. Oh, perfect. Well, let's get you there. What's your birthday? 15th of Feb, 1988. All right, Raz, that means you were 16 in 2004. And on the 15th of Feb in 2004, this had a number one hit.

I got a dream. I got a dream. Holding on. Bang up. And on the 15th of Feb in 2004, this had a number one hit. Bang up. Dreaming. That's the goat, Scribe. Tell him he's dreaming. Do you like it, Ruz? I love it. I had a CD.

Yeah, me too. It's a great one, Ruz. The Crusader. Okay, wait there. We'll do one more birthday banger for Gabby. Hi, Gabby. Hi, Gabby. Hello, Gabby. Hey, guys.

How was your weekend? Yeah, good. Really good. Lots of fun. Good to hear. Gabby, what's your birthday? The 12th of March, 1981. Right, Gabby.

I'm old compared to the other two. Not at all. You were 16 in 1997. Good year. And this is your birthday banger. Oh, this part, wait for it. Do you love it, Gabby? I agree, sing it. Yeahby? Every thing it. Yeah.

Okay. Right there. I'm going to talk you through how my logic went this week. When Holly came on, she got We Know Speaking Americana. I was like, banger. I'm going to vote for that. Good song. And then when Ruz came on and Scribe came on, I was like, oh, nah.

Scribe. I'm going to vote for that. Great song. And then Gabby came through with the Spice Girls, and I think I cannot not vote for that song. I will love you forever if you go the Spice Girls. Gabby, congratulations. You just won birthday banger. An oldie but a goodie.

Spice Girls. No, I meant the song, but yeah. Bree and Clint from iHeartRadio. This is the latest. Just when you thought we were done talking about Married at First Sight Australia, it's back in the news. Of course it is. Who's done what now?

So Olivia Fraser, who was with Jackson. That's right. She's the one who was not very nice on the show. She's quite nasty. Yes, particularly to Dom. Well, she's been rocked by a cheating scandal in her relationship because there's video footage of her husband, Jackson, pashing another woman in Melbourne on Friday night.

Yeah, I've seen the video. From what I can gather, the woman is an aspiring TikToker. Okay. She wants to be famous on TikTok. The one being pashed? Yes. Or the one doing the pashing? I think she's the one that's like... Oh, it takes two to tango. I know, but I think she's approached him.

And he's all for it, don't get me wrong. He's like into it. But the video is very, I mean, clear. You can see everything. Totally. She says that the pash with a kiss, she says, was innocent. But it's a full lip lock. It's a multi-second lip lock.

It wasn't a kiss. Anyway, Liv has said that he needs to go away and think about what he wants from his future. Oh, no. I think they're taking a break at the moment. However, the TikToker who's done the pashing, her name is Han Hughes. She's actually getting quite a lot of support online. Is she?

Because Olivia was so polarising on the show. Right. And because she behaved so poorly on Married at First Sight, there are comments on Han, who has pashed Jackson's TikTok account, that say things like, it's not home wrecking, it's home improving.

Oh no. Which are not comments that we endorse on the Brian Clint Show, but it's just interesting. You know, two wrongs don't make a right. But I thought last week there was news out about Olivia and Jackson that they were starting an OnlyFans. Oh, that was a couple of weeks ago.

Remember? That was like two weeks ago. She said she was open to the idea of it. Yeah. After dragging Dominica for it. No, but then it came out that they announced they were starting one. Oh, what would they do on it? I don't know. Oh, yuck. I don't know, but

there you go. How things change within a couple of days. That TV show, man. We are still talking about it. Speaking of freaky deaky, some strippers believe that there's a recession on the way they reckon it's guaranteed because strip clubs are empty and that is a leading indicator that there is an economic downturn on the way people aren't spending as much no they don't have the money to throw around. And the strippers are seeing it first.

They believe they can predict when the market is good and when it's bad. They know when it's going up and when it's going down. They can tell when the market is soft and when it's hard. And it's on the rise. A Twitter user who goes by the name ReverseCowgirl69 tweeted, this is real, by the way, I'm not making this up. Good username. I know.

I wanted that one, but it was taken. Are there any underscores in there? No, straight up. Reverse Cowgirl69. She says, the strip club is sadly a leading indicator and I can promise y'all we are in for a recession. LMFAO. Look, I don't want to discredit Reverse Cowgirl69. No. Look, I don't want to discredit Reverse Cowgirl 69. But, I mean, would OnlyFans have anything to do with it?

Oh, you think maybe the stripping industry's been disrupted by new technology? Like, I'm just saying, there is another platform now where people might be spending their money to get... But look, if you're out on a night out and it gets to that part of the night and some of your mates are keen to kick on, and sometimes only the those bars are open

You're not going to go Oh, should we go to the strip club or should we head home and sit around my phone and bring up an OnlyFans I mean, you've got a good point. They're selling a different product. It's kind of the same product but different One's for personal consumption One's for group I mean, you've got a good point. They're selling a different product. It's kind of the same product, but different. Yeah.

Yeah. One's for personal consumption, one's for group. Yeah. Yeah. Look, it's not just strip clubs. Someone followed up that tweet. They replied and they said, I work in a casino and we have not been this dead since before COVID, not even at the height of COVID. And there are still some people here, but it's only the cheap ones and it's

really out of line for this time of year. So people who work in the casinos reckon there's a recession on the way too. Someone else said, I had a friend who stopped stripping after the 2008 housing crash. She said it just wasn't worth it dealing with men for that kind of money. Prior to that

she was making $2,000 a night and then when the GFC hit, the recession, she was down to $300 a night from two grand. She got out quick. So she said the strip clubs are definitely an indicator of what's coming. Well, I mean, if you look at that movie Hustlers, that's starring Jennifer Lopez, that is what that movie is about, essentially,

is strippers who were working in that field, making heaps of money, and then that 2008 recession pretty much destroyed the business. That's it. They had to change their tax. Yeah. So I want to know, why aren't they getting a stripper on the 6 o'clock news

to do their ASB financial report thing each night? I mean... How come they're not crossing to reverse cowgirl69 to go, and now for the markets, for a look at the NZX40, please welcome reverse cowgirl69. It's a great idea to bring up ratings, I think, and good to get some new blood into that kind of segment. Yep.

Because it can be quite dull. Totally. Can't it? Do you reckon Mike Hosking's got room for reverse cowgirl69 on the Mike Hosking Breakfast Show? Look, if I know Mike, he would love it. He would be on board. Might have to ask Kate first, though, eh?

Yeah, true. I think she would see the promise in getting someone on like that to discuss. Well, there you go, everybody.
