0800 dials it in. Bree and Clint. We're about to rip into our daily quiz. There's a brand new daily quiz which has just launched on the New Zealand Herald. It's the first day that the quiz is live today. And I've just heard that you and I are the subject of one of the questions, Brie. What? And I thought if anyone wants to do the quiz on the New Zealand Herald website, we could give them the answer.

Yeah. Okay, hold on. Let me go on and have a look. Just going to the Herald website, we could give them the answer. Yeah. Okay, hold on. Let me go on and have a look. Just going to the Herald website. I believe the question is, what year did the Brie and Clint radio show start on ZM? I don't even know. Yeah, because I'm not sure what the answer is.

Was it 2018? Is it 2018? Yes. Or was it 2017? Was it mid-2018? I'm pretty sure it was 2018. Claudia, you've been here since 2021. What year did this show start?

Do you know the answer? 2018. 2018. It's from the magazine. 2018. Okay. Can someone go and do the quiz and answer that question for us and then let us know what year that we started this radio show?

That'd be really helpful. Yeah, we'd like to know as well. Franklin, time for Tradie vs. Lady. It's Tradie vs. Lady. Three, two, one, let's go. All right, let's rip into our daily quiz, Tradie vs. Lady. The ladies on seven wins for the year so far. The tradies are on five.

Let's go to our lady first from Hamilton. She is 30 years old and she is back for her second tradie versus lady victory. Welcome to the show, Ray. G'day, Ray. Hi. When was the last time you played? I won it twice, so probably about a year ago. Oh, my God.

You're here for your third bite of the cherry. No, hopefully. Yeah, you'd be up to $150. Okay, you're taking on our tradie from Canterbury today, the 23, and they are currently cutting grass silage. Welcome to the show, Hamish. G'day, Hamish. Yeah, good.

Thank you, mate. Can you explain exactly what that is? Oh, we just got a bit of extra grass on the farm at the moment, so we're making a bit of supplement feed, so if you drive through the countryside and see all the blue circle things sitting in people's paddocks, that's what we're making. Oh, there you go.

Yes, and how long does that last once you make it into those big kind of bales? Oh, you get about two years out of it. My dad told me this over the Christmas break, and I was like, that's a fair while, eh? Yeah, that's impressive. Not bad, not bad.

We'll get that 50 bucks sent out to you. Ray, give us a call back, mate. Go for round four sometime. Thank you. We'd love to have you back on. That was a good game. Tight game. Bree and Clint.

This time yesterday we were talking about Valentine's Day, which annoyingly is coming up. It's like two weeks away. And you brought some info that says the average spend for Valentine's Day is $150. Yeah, that's what this survey done asking people where they were just saying how much do you spend and the average was about $150. I want to pitch a different idea that's not an original idea of mine. Okay. Well, it is because I do it, but I saw Hilary Barry posting about it. So it's got

you know, people respect Hilary Barry's opinion more than mine. So it's got some weight. Okay. Let me read this post that Hillsbaz put up last month. Okay. It was in the lead up to Christmas. It was around her birthday. Her and her partner.

Wait, when's her birthday? Oh my God, do I have the same birthday? No, beginning of December, I think. Oh, gutted. She wrote this. Last week, it was my birthday. And a couple of my colleagues asked me whether Mr B, her husband, had delivered

on a good gift. I tried to explain that we don't give each other gifts. Not on birthdays, not on Christmas, not even on anniversaries. We celebrate those occasions, but we've never really found the need to express how we feel about each other with presence.

And then this weekend, I was reminded why. It's hay fever season and Mr. B knows that I get very itchy eyes because of it. He went out and bought an array of eye drops to try and relieve my symptoms. When I went to brush my teeth this morning, I found a collection of little bottles that he'd left for me. No fanfare, no grand proclamation, just a little gesture on an ordinary day. Now that is a gift. And she wrote, and yes, I know that he's a keeper. Oh, that's very cute of Mr. B.

I've met Mr. B. I told him he was very good looking way too many times. He is very good looking, eh? We met him at Maddie's wedding. God, my wife didn't stop talking about him for months. And whenever he comes up in conversation, Lucy's like, met him at Maddie's wedding. Yeah. God, my wife didn't stop talking about him for months. And whenever he comes up in conversation, Lizzie's like, met him very hot. I slow dance with him.

Did you? Yeah, look, I don't want to big note myself. And then I also slow dance with Hilbaz as well at the wedding. He's a school principal, eh? Yeah, he's lovely. Very nice man. I mean, it makes sense because she is the best. She's the best.

So no presents. I know that you are very pro-presents. No, no, no. Wait, wait, wait. You're anti-no presents in your relationship. I'm definitely, I'm the type of person, I don't love receiving gifts.

I actually find it a bit awkward. I mean, when you get a really nice gift, obviously that's lovely and really nice, but I'm just not very good at receiving gifts. But one of my favorite things to do is to listen to my partner or listen to my friends or family months out from a big event and buy them a gift where they're just like, wow, how did you know that? And it's my way of showing that I actually take notice and I listen. And it doesn't have to be a super expensive gift, but I feel like I love doing it.

Like I really get something out of it, like giving someone something where I've put in effort to show that I listen and I care about what they say. That to me, I love to give gifts. Wouldn't it be easier if you didn't have to do that? It would be easier. But I get something out of it is what I'm saying. I love doing it. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Fair enough, fair enough. I thought this afternoon we could ask the question because maybe this happens in your relationship but you guys never had a conversation about it and you never signed up to the no gifts rule in your relationship. Maybe it was one-sided. Here's the question. Have you never received a present from your partner?

Ever. Not a birthday present. Not a Christmas present. Not an anniversary present. Not a Valentine's Day present. They don't buy you Easter eggs. Nothing. Nothing.

No occasion has been marked with a gift from your partner because they just don't buy you Easter eggs, nothing. Nothing. No occasion has been marked with a gift from your partner because they just don't do that. And what's their reasoning? Have you talked about it though? Yeah, did you guys talk about it or are they just useless? Or is it just something that goes untalked about? Yeah. In the lead up to

Valentine's Day, are you expecting absolutely nothing? Valentine's Day is two weeks and one day away. And we're asking the question this afternoon, have you never received a gift from your partner ever? Like ever. Like not just for Valentine's Day, for your birthday. Like anything.

For your Christmas. Like nothing. Heather E. Barry has gone on the record to say her and Mr. B, they don't do it. They don't do gifts. They've never done it. Now they don't. I'm sure they did it earlier in their relationship.

Do you reckon? Yeah. You reckon? Of course. You're all in lust and loved up. Yeah, you want to impress. Yeah. He would have wanted to impress her. It would have at least been flowers or something, eh? Totally. But they don't do it now. Is that the case in your relationship? And did you guys talk about that?

Or did they just not buy you anything? Kim's called up on 0800-DARLS-IT-M. Hi, Kim. Hi, Kim. Hello. Tell us, Kim. You've never had a present. Sorry, for Valentine's Day, we've been together for 12 years

and Valentine's Day we don't celebrate it because we believe that Valentine's Day should be every day, be special to each other every day. Yeah, no, I like that, Kim. I like that. So do you get... It's kind of corny, isn't it? Yeah, sorry. Do you get flowers and chocolates every day?

No, but that's the thing. We don't do flowers and chocolates every day. And I didn't quite get it when I was talking to your lady. But no, we make each other feel special every day. But obviously the first year, obviously we bought something for each other. What are you doing to make each other feel special every day. But obviously the first year, obviously we bought something. What are you doing to make each other feel special today? What are you going to do? Oh, I picked her up from work about five, ten minutes ago.

I gave her a good old smooch and told her she's beautiful. And then I went. See, Kim, my partner folded my undies the way I like this morning. Oh, see, even that. No, just little things. Yeah, that's love. That's little things. Yeah, I like that, Kim.

I like it. Thank you, mate. We appreciate it. Let's go to PJ on 0800 dial ZM. Hi, PJ. Hi, PJ. Hi. You've been with your partner for almost nine years and no presents?

Yeah, we've been married almost nine years, and the only presents we do are anniversaries and never really been a discussion. We both were raised that way. Yeah. My family has never, I've never had a birthday present, a Christmas present.

What? Wait, PJ, PJ, your entire life, even from when you were a kid, you never had presents, ever? Yeah, yeah, that's right. Wow. Would you like more presents? Like if he showed up with a birthday present for you this year, would that make you happy or would you be weirded out? I would be a little weirded out, to be honest. Yeah.

We like randomly do presents. Yeah. It's never a day specific except our wedding anniversary. Yeah, like my husband will randomly get me flowers. Jeez, 10 year wedding anniversary coming up. 10 years, you're going to have to get a good present. I know, a bit of pressure on there. But yeah, this is mutual. My husband, I think he's received only a couple of Christmas or birthday presents in his whole life as well. PJ, can I

ask, because that's quite interesting to me, like you don't hear that all that often. Is it a religious thing? Is it just how your parents were raised or is it just, like where does that come from? For me, it's a religious thing. My parents became Jehovah's Witnesses later in life. Right, yeah. And so them from like their 20s, 30s, they never did it. I never did it.

It took my extended family a little bit to get used to. I didn't realise that. So Jehovah's Witnesses don't do gifts at all? I never realised that. I had some friends when I was growing up who were Jehovah's. I felt so bad for them as kids because they didn't get birthday presents or Christmas presents. It'd be quite, was it hard for you, PJ, to understand as a kid

that, you know, when you saw other kids getting presents or that's just how it was? Yeah, it was a little disappointing as a kid. I'd say, like like before I was 10. But my parents were really good about we did family days quite often. Oh, yeah. We got each other presents. Yeah, yeah.

And so I said, I think when I was in my early teens, I said, hey, I kind of want a birthday. Yeah, fair enough. And they said, okay, yeah, that's fine. Oh, that's nice. But it just means you won't be getting presents the rest of the year. They'll only be given to you on your birthday or Christmas. Oh, my God. Like a birthday ultimatum.

Yeah. Okay. Hey, thanks, PJ. That's fascinating. That's so interesting. One more text. Someone said, one of my exes who I was with for three and a half years never got me a gift, but I got her heaps of gifts.

I like giving presents, but apparently I'm hard to buy for. I would have been happy with a block of chocolate even though I don't like chocolate. That sucks, man. Especially if you're all putting time and effort and you're buying your partner's stuff and you're like, oh, I just wish they would do something. It doesn't have to be

big elaborate things but it's just the thought. Well, if you're looking at going gift free, just make sure both of you are on board with it before you change the rules. Make sure there's a conversation. Brian Clint. We need to talk about this chiropractor slash health influencer. His name is Dr. Patrick Flynn because he's made quite an outrageous claim on his Instagram. Okay.

We've got a clip here of him talking about what he is saying is the required amount of sleep for men and women which is different. Okay. He is what's called hormonal reserves. See, if you think of it this way, women depend so much on their adrenals

to produce even daily hormones. Men does not. Men can produce maybe 2-3% of their adrenals and 97%, 98% is produced by the testicles. Women need uninterrupted sleep. Men can get away because a lot of their vitality, a lot of their repair is done by testosterone. It's mainly made by the testicle

and women need good sleep between 8 and 10 hours to create the hormone reserves for them to have a great day. He's saying women need 8 to 10 hours sleep. Men can get away with 7 to 8. No, specifically because of our balls. Yeah, the testicles provide the much-needed sustenance for the brain's adrenal cognitive function. Vitality.

We get our vitality from our testicles. I mean, I didn't really understand what he was saying. But he is copying a little bit of backlash because people are saying, I don't think that's true. Adult women need eight to ten hours sleep a day. That's what he's claiming. Right. But I've done a little bit of research,

and the American Association of Sleep Medicine recommends at least seven hours per night for all adults aged between 18 and 60. I thought that's what we were going for. Yeah. I thought that was the bog standard. Seven's the stock standard amount, hey. Yeah, I shoot for eight personally, but they sort of say you shouldn't be getting less than seven on a regular basis. Seven or more. Yeah.

I didn't know my testicles could afford me a stay-up night, though. That's good. Yeah, there's also other studies that have said that women, so this university study compared a group of 210 middle-aged men and women, right? Yeah. And they found that women require more sleep because their brains work harder due to the fact that they multitask throughout the day. This is quite interesting, this quote.

You've got more apps running in your head than we do. Well, that's what this study is saying. It kind of says that the more of your brain that you use throughout the day, the more sleep you need to recover your brain. Which makes sense because when you use your phone, the more you use it, the more you have to charge it. I agree. It's like when you're studying for an exam or you're doing an exam,

you get really hungry. It's because brain power burns calories. Yeah, using your brain. It uses energy. But to say that a woman's brain works harder than a man's during the day. All of these studies are just, you know. They're just studies. I don't know a woman on this planet that gets 10 hours sleep a day.

10 hours is a lot. There would be people without kids. You reckon? Yeah, 100%. Every day? Have you not? Do you not? Every day?

Every day. Yeah, I reckon. Like, I've slept for 10 hours before. I reckon there'd be people who... But you do it once and then the next night you can't... Produce a call. You wake up at five in the morning. Is that you?

I just looked at my average on my sleep schedule, nine hours, 53 minutes. I'm exhausted. Wait, where do I go to find that? In your health app. Okay, hold on. You average nine hours and 53 minutes. My health app?

I don't know if I'm actually asleep for all of that. It's just what my phone says. Mine's seven hours and 21 minutes. You need a bit more. Well, I'm in the range. Have you thought that maybe you're tired because you're sleeping too much? Nah, not possible. No?

Okay, all right. I'll shut my mouth. What about you? It's obviously because your brain is working so hard. Yeah, yeah. Yeah, yeah. There's a lot going on up there. Right.

I wonder if we can find someone this afternoon who doesn't sleep much at all. Like, are you getting well below the recommended amount of sleep? Well, now I'd also like to ask people, do you get 10 hours plus every night? Yeah. On average. Not like every single night, but like. There's nothing medically wrong with you. More than likely, you're sleeping for 10 hours every night.

Like, that's your stock standard. Yeah. What time do you get up? Yeah. That's a lot of sleep. Yeah. Okay. Oh, 800 dials a dim.

We're looking for the people who sleep bugger all. Yes. And the people that sleep bugger lots. Ten or more hours? Yeah. And then people who are operating on like four hours sleep. Four or five hours every night. How are you doing that?

How do you do it? Yeah. Bree and Clint. Controversial information delivered by Brie Thomasel earlier. Apparently, women need eight to ten hours of sleep a night. Yeah, according to this chiropractor cum health influencer. And men need two hours less because of their testicles. Yeah, he said it's all to do with the hormones

and that's how much each gender needs. I call BS. I think it depends on the person. This is the world we're living in though where everybody goes on social media and says these are my credentials and this is the truth. Yep. This is what it is.

There's no study but this is the exact truth. You can find someone on TikTok to confirm whatever you choose to believe. But let's park that and let's just talk to some people who either sleep a lot or not much at all. We found out just before that producer Claudia averages nine hours and 58 minutes of sleep per night. And it's not enough. You must have a lovely bed. Oh, it is lovely. Claude, Claude, not to call you out, not to call you out.

So you're averaging 10 hours of sleep a night. Can you just have a look in your phone and tell us how many steps you've done today? Oh, you know that's my downfall. How many steps have you done? Because like... Today or on average? On average. In the last six months,

4,000 a day. Better than some days that you've told us. Claude. Which is like 1,000. Claude. Yeah? You're sleeping for 70 hours a week. Mm-hmm.

That's 2.9 days. Oh, yeah. You're almost sleeping for three days a week. Claude. Oh, I need to up it to get to three then. I just had a great idea. If you could find a job that you get paid to sleep, you'd be earning the big bucks.

I'd be making bank. Yeah. Let's talk to some people who have called up, and we'll go to Alex, you'd be earning the big bucks and making bank. Yeah. Let's talk to some people who have called up, and we'll go to Alex first on 0800 dial ZM. Hi, Alex. Hi, Alex. Hello, guys. Tell us, mate, which camp are you in?

A lot of sleep or hardly any sleep? Not a lot. Not a lot. Okay, how many hours a night do you reckon? Well, I just had a look at my watch, and over the past week, on average, five hours. What a night. Yep, and then over the month,

oh, sorry, Siri, that was Siri. And then over the month, it's jumped up to five hours, 52 minutes. Yeah, right. So you're between five and six hours a night. Not much, Alex. I'd be running on f night. Not much, Alex. I'd be running on fumes. Not much at all. I'd be a zombie. Can I ask a few questions

about your lifestyle? What do you do for work? Do you exercise? And are you a big coffee drinker? I have just started drinking more coffee. Okay. That'll help. I have three kids. One at one school age

And then two at preschool Right And I work Full time So you're busy God you're a busy person So busy Yeah busy

Life's chaos I bet Would you like to sleep more Or I guess what we're trying to find is Are you Are you functional On five to six hours of sleep

Um I think I'm used to it Yeah okay I'm used to not having that much. I could probably, I feel when I have more sleep, it's worse. Like if I nap during the day, it's probably the worst thing ever.

Last night, I think I had about three hours. You sound pretty bloody with it to me. It doesn't sound like we're getting autopilot. Let's go to Corey. Thanks, Ella. Let's go to Corey. Thanks, Alex. Let's go to Corey. Hi, Corey. Hi, Corey.

Yeah, hello. Big sleeper or little sleeper? No, not much of a sleeper-y. How much? Yeah, I can probably operate on about four hours a night. Four hours a night, Corey. Are you what? No, so recently we had the Australian Open on, right?

Yes. Oh, mate. Yeah, the tennis one. So I was watching a couple of those finals up until 3.30. Mate, I'm right there with you. I got no sleep for two weeks. It was ridiculous. No, neither. Neither.

It was intense. It's some of the best tennis I've ever seen. Me too. And what do you do for work? So you stay up to 3.30 to watch tennis. What do you do for a job and when do you get up? Yeah, I'm on site by 7 a.m. Wow.

Yeah, so I'm the property manager at the school, at a school here in Hamilton. Okay. And so I'm the first one on school and I unlock all the doors and turn the alarms off and stuff. So you have to be there. Yeah, I was worried you were going to say you were driving like a forklift down at the port or something, some heavy machinery on to be there. Yeah, I was worried you were going to say you were driving like a forklift down at the port or something.

Some heavy machinery on three hours sleep. Nah, nah, nah. I'm just out of school, bro. I'm just out of school. Corey, do you have, do you drink a lot of coffee or energy drinks

Oh, you poor bugger. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. How long have you suffered with chronic insomnia for? As long as I can remember. Emma, can I? Maybe two or three times a year I'll sleep for like 13 hours. Really?

As you top up. Yeah, and I'll feel like I've just been run over by a truck. You've been in a coma. That literally would be like a coma for you. Geez, Emma, you sound tired. Oh, thank you. Don't say that to her. No, I mean with love.

You don't say that. It's like when you say to someone you look tired. No, that's worse. That's worse than saying you sound tired. It's just as bad. Really? Yes. Oh, okay. Emma, that's worse. That's worse than saying you sound tired. It's just as bad. Really? Yes. Oh, okay.

How many Dally M's has Jonathan Thurston won? I don't know what that means. Dally what? Dally M's. It's an award in rugby league. Pretty much the best player of the whole season. Oh, my God. I know.

Five? Claudia's out. How do you spell Dally? I don't know. I think Dilly Dally. John is his name? Oh, my God. Ella's never going to get this.

He won his second and 25th. Four. Can you just tell me what the name was? Jonathan Thurston. Oh, Thurston. Now I want to double check myself. Dally M. I'm so lost.

I don't even know what that is. I've never heard of a Dally M. It's a rugby league award. You don't need to know what it is. How many Dally M, rugby, John? Take that award. You don't need to know what it is. How many Deli M rugby John take that out? Jonathan. Put us out of our misery, Brie. Well, it doesn't matter because Clint got it right.

Oh, come on. Why didn't you just say that? I just wanted to put a bit of, you know. Screw you. Bit of jeopardy. Okay, one to Clint, one to Claudia. Next question. Question number three. What year was the Frisbee created? Looking for the year.

1957. I'm going to give it to Claudia. Just. Just. It was very close between Clint and Claudia. And Ella. You were there, but not as close. You were loud.

You were loud. Two to Claudia, one to Clint. Question number four. Where did the Frisbee got invented, by the way? Yeah. That's something to be invented? It feels like it should have just existed. Just existed, yeah.

All right, here we go. Question number four. How many Grammys has Taylor Swift won? Twelve. I'm going to give it to Clint. What? I gave you the last one. It's only fair. Right. Let to give it to Clint. What? I gave you the last one. It's only fair.

Right. Let me spread it around. Because it was literally neck and neck. Okay. Question number five. This could be for the win. Ella's out, by the way. Technically, she could get the last three.

No, she's out. You're too far behind to come back. I'm going to win this point. She's still going to play. Question number five. Who invented the snow cone? Oh, yum. Samuel Burt.

Claudia takes the win in stunning fashion, which means Simon for backing Claudia. We're going to hook you up with 50 KFC chicken dollars. Perfect. Well done, Claudia. Thank you, Simon. God, that was a tight game. That was so good.

Oh, that's satisfying. You know when the snow cone was invented? No. By Samuel Burt, apparently, at the Texas State Fair in 1919. Really? Yeah. Why did that have to be invented? Exactly right.

It's just ice. Yeah, but they put the colours and the flavourings on it. Bree and Clint. Time for a birthday banger. Bree and Clint. All I want for my birthday is a birthday banger. Let's do your birthday bangers for your hump day. Ha-ha-ha hump day.

Ha-ha-ha hump day, y'all. What is that? I don't know. Look, if I'm honest, if I'm honest, I'm quite tired on this hump day. Right, okay. And I put it down to exercising. People say exercising makes you feel good. It gives you energy.

Bull crap. You're burning the candle at both ends. You're doing your job. You're renovating a house and you're exercising. What's your point? Well, you're doing too much. Oh, I see. I see what you're saying.

Alright, Katie, that means you date of birth, mate? Let's do your birthday banger. It's the 20th of March, 1995. All right, Katie, that means you were 16 in 2011. And on your 16th birthday, this was at the top. I may be bad, but I'm perfectly good at it. Sex in the air, I don't care.

I love the sex. S&M, Rihanna, the song that a lot of kids knew the words to. Yeah, right. When they shouldn't know. This is a banger, Katie. Do you like it? Is it your birthday banger? Yeah, not bad, not bad.

and I reckon she's right. From 2011, that's Rihanna's S&M. It's Katie's Birthday Banger. She couldn't go wrong. In 2011? Nah. She had hit after hit after hit. To be honest, she couldn't go wrong for 10 years. 10 years she couldn't go wrong. In 2011? Nah. She had hit after hit after hit. To be honest, she couldn't go wrong for 10 years.

10 years she couldn't go wrong. From 2007 to 2017, she literally couldn't miss. And then, she just had a break. Yeah. And hasn't come back. Oh, and became a billionaire? Became a billionaire, started an empire, made a ton of money. Had a baby.

Had a baby. Did the Super Bowl show. Yeah, she's done a bit, I guess. She's right. Wouldn't mind a new album, though. I would love a new album from Rihanna. This year, apparently. I hope so. Album and a world tour.

Yeah. That song she did for the movie wasn't enough for me. Oh, the Wakanda Forever movie. Quite lackluster. Yeah, a bit slow. Yeah, a little bit slow. Have you ever been to a restaurant, ordered something? Oh, you have, hey?

Yeah. Ordered something and then you're like, oh, that's not the price of what I thought it was. Yeah, I mixed up the price of the wine with the year of the wine. And I didn't realise that until after I drank the wine. So good. Yeah. Well, someone has done. I said, I thought it was $18 a glass.

And they said, no, sir, that's 2018, the year that it was bottled. Please leave our establishment, you peasant. A guy named Jeffrey Page has... I was on a date, though, and I pretended to be fine with it. I was like, oh, all good. Oh, that's... Oh, what's... That is so fine.

That's so fine. A guy called Jeffrey Page made a reservation at the new Gordon Ramsay steak restaurant in Atlantic City. Oh, yeah. Him and his meso decided they would go out and splurge on a fancy dinner because the Gordon Ramsay restaurant, not cheap. No. Not super cheap.

And certain things on that menu, very expensive. I wouldn't want it to be super expensive though, right? So get this. When they were having a look at the menu, they saw that the real deal triple seared Japanese A5, that's like the best top, top, top of the range meat you can get. Yeah. Like it's better than Wagyu.

Okay. Also known as Kobe. Right. Okay. It's considered to be the finest cut of meat available. Right. They looked at that and they thought that it was cheaper than the American Wagyu, which is also not cheap, right?

So it appeared to be cheaper. So the American Wagyu said it cost about 26 pounds for four ounces. Okay. And the other one was- Wait, 26 pounds? 26 pounds. Oh, this must be an English article. I forgot to change it up.

So about $50 for four ounces. Right. And then the Wagyu was about $120 for eight ounces. Okay. Yeah. So essentially they were like, that's so weird. It's twice as much steak. That's so weird.

The Kobe, which is meant to be the best, is cheaper than the Wagyu. So they ordered a bunch of it. Okay. Quite a bit of it. Okay. Quite a bit of it. Turns out he'd misread the menu and the beef he had ordered was actually per ounce, not per four ounces. And so turns out their bill, so they got a couple of sides, appetizers. She got the beef Wellington that's famous at the Ramsey restaurant and then this steak. The bill came to a total of about $600 for two people.

Yeah, but how good was the steak? He did say. I was going to say, how good was the steak? The guy said that it was the best steak he's ever had in his whole life. Good, good, good. You'd resent that money less if it was the best steak he's ever had in his whole life. Good, good, good. You'd resent that money less if it was the best steak you'd ever had in your life. Yeah, exactly. He said he doesn't regret it.

He laughed about it later, but he was quite shocked when the bill came over and was like, what? $600 is a shock, but I was expecting you to say like, he got the bill and it was four grand. You know? Jeez, that's like that Salt Bae restaurant. People are saying that a lot of the time they go to that Salt Bae restaurant and they don't realise. The guy who flicks the salt from the top of his wrist. And it costs thousands of dollars.

And you're not getting thousands of dollars worth of food. You're getting the novelty. And mate, stop putting gold leaf onto meat. I'm so sick of this gold leaf. It doesn't even taste like anything. Oh, Andrew Darls at M this afternoon. Do you want to share with us a time that you got bill shock? Yeah, what was something where you didn't really realise the price?

Until you got the bill. Until you had eaten the thing. Or until you had had the work done on your car or your teeth or whatever it was. What was the thing and you got it and you're like, Oh, my God, maybe you're doing renos on your house. I need to call my mum. The bill comes back from the electrician. You're like, Oh, my God.

Oh, $800 at him. Or text it to 969socks. 969socks. That was the most Kiwi you've ever sounded. Thanks. Bree and Clint. We're talking about bill shock this afternoon. When did you get a bill and you were like, oh, no.

I did not expect that. Where has this amount of money added up come from? Where's the rest of it? Where's the rest of the thing for that price? What am I getting for this amount? Guy ordered the wrong steak, really, at the Gordon Ramsay restaurant. I reckon he got off lightly. If he got the world's best steak and he got out of there with dinner for two for $600,

I reckon he got off lightly. Could have been way worse, but still a lot of money. I'm asking you, when did it happen to you? Someone texts us in and they said, I got new rod bearings on my BMW. It cost $8,400. I was gobsmacked. I never realised I was driving a Bugatti. Rod bearings?

Do you even see those? Nah, and those are the worst, eh? When you have to pay for something that doesn't make a visual difference or doesn't affect the way that the thing operates, but you have to spend the money anyway. I literally said this to my partner because our renovations we're doing on the house. They have to rewire the whole house because it's so old. And I'm like no one's going to come in here and go

oh I love the rewiring you've done on the place. They plug something in and they go is that new wiring? Jeez, this is good wiring. That's amazing. I'm going to pay you extra. But your house won't burn down so that's a plus. This person wants to be anonymous. Hi, anonymous.

Hi, anonymous. Hello. Tell us, what was the time you got bill shock? I was randomly in town, and I was doing some shopping, like some wedding bits and pieces, and I popped into this men's store to get a tie. My husband's there on the day. And it was like a nicer

store but it wasn't like a silk tie or anything you know it was just like a normal Joe Bloggs tie and I was like what's the word like $40 or $50 it was $160 and so I just paid, didn't say a word took it and walked out of the store Oh you just

you didn't say oh I'll leave that I didn't want to spend the rest of my time. Did you feel too embarrassed to give it back? I think I was just so shocked that a tie that wasn't silk or anything. Anonymous. You can totally say that you were embarrassed to be like, okay, that's too much for me. I've done the exact same thing on multiple occasions,

went to the Nike store, got this jacket, and the clerk goes, oh, there's a last season jacket that's on sale at the moment. I was like, great. So I didn't even look at the price because I assumed it would be cheaper. Take it to the register. It's three times as much. And I paid for it to Anonymous because I was so embarrassed

and guess what? Seven years later, I'm still wearing that bloody jacket. Need to get it free. You've got to get your money's worth. Exactly. Did your husband

at least like the $160 tie? Yes, loved it. Loved it. Oh good. I can't tell you where it is now though.

It was missing the day after the wedding. It was, oh no, Anonymous. Someone text us and they said, we rearranged a hotel minibar in Vegas.

We didn't even drink anything and they charged us $150 US. Turns out there were weight sensors inside the fridge. Surely. I've heard about that. Surely if you didn't actually eat or drink anything, you could have argued that. You could, but they put the weight sensors in there

so that people don't drink it and then refill it with stuff from the service station. Yeah, exactly. Someone else said, kind of a bill shock, I suppose, but I got a speeding ticket and when it arrived in the mail, it was $400. It was a speed of 134 kilometres an hour. In what, A 60 zone?

You got off lightly You could have lost your licence You got off lightly Depending on what the It would have been 100 It would have been 100 zone It would have been 100 zone But I don't think you can lose your licence from a camera

But you can lose your licence from a cop And you only have to be going 30 over the limit Oh trust me I know all the rules in New Zealand You don't lose any points if it's a camera. No. No points. Which is crazy to me.

Like the best. Like so good. 400 bucks for going 34 kilometres over the speed limit is you've won. In Australia. You've won in that situation. In Australia, if you were caught doing 134, I reckon you'd probably be a $3,000 fine. Really?

I reckon potentially. Mate, if you get caught on your phone, it's $1,000 straight away, which so you should. But the speeding fines are outrageous. Yeah. I'm trying to remember. This is like years and years ago. I got a, I think I was doing

$111 in a 100 zone. Yeah. And that's like a $400 ticket. Is it? Yeah. Oh. Yeah. Wow.

And sometimes, I mean, the police might feel generous, but. Yeah. So here's a text. My partner and I went for dinner at that Gordon Ramsay restaurant in London last month. For the two of us, it cost $1,900 New Zealand. What did you guys eat? What did you drink? Was that the best meal of your life?

I know what they had. What? They had the gold leaf. That'll do it every time. The gold leaf gets you. So tasty though, that gold leaf. Bree and Clint. Have you noticed that people on TikTok

have started using the platform to settle debates? Yes, I have. Or arguments or disagreements in their life? I noticed, I saw a video of a girl last night who was having a rant about her dad's new girlfriend. Okay. And saying how she felt that she had to go to dinner with her. She's like, I'm going to update you on what happens after this. But I'm not wrong to be angry, am I?

Then crickets? Well, it's just... Who was wrong? Who was right? No one was necessarily wrong. Oh, here's Switzerland over here. Make a decision. She's angry because her dad's new girlfriend is two years older than her.

Oh, okay. And she has been... Yeah, that is a bit awkward. She has been older than her. Oh, okay. And she has been... Yeah, that is a bit awkward. She has been avoiding meeting her... Yeah, a bit fair enough. ...for two years. Whoa! They've been dating,

and then something's happened where they have to go to dinner together, and so she's venting on TikTok about it. Oh, it would be difficult. Yeah. I wouldn't like it either, I don't think. No. This situation that I've come across isn't as full on as that,

but I love it because it's just super basic. And I thought we could listen to the situation and then we can all discuss what we think is right. Okay, perfect. So the situation involves two sisters and I'll let one of the sisters explain what's happened. One of us borrowed a blow-up mattress from the other so that we could have our friend sleep on said mattress.

When the mattress was blown up in the house, we realised that the mattress had a hole in it and the air mattress basically didn't inflate. Who is responsible for disposing of the mattress? Is it Sister A who gave the mattress to Sister B? Or is it Sister B who pumped the mattress up and now

has the mattress in her possession? Who is in the right? Who disposes of the blow-up mattress, guys? Can I just check? Why is it such a big deal to dispose of it? Why can't they just put it in the wheelie bin? I don't know. Maybe it's one of those quite big ones.

Right, okay. Who knows? Who knows? Obviously, it's been an argument in their relationship and they want to get to the bottom of it. All right. So the person who blew up the mattress maintains it came with a hole in it.

Yes. That's what they're saying. Yeah. And they're saying you gave me a faulty mattress, so you should take it back and dispose of it. And the other person is saying, well, we don't know where the hole

came from, but you discovered the hole. You could have done it. And you've got it now. I gave it to you as a favour. You get rid of it. I just think, yeah, the first sister is saying, you borrowed it from me. It's not my fault. I didn't realise there was a hole in it.

You now have the mattress, so you get rid of it. Yep. Yep. Okay, I know what it is. So is it Sister A, the one who lent the mattress, that has to get rid of it, or Sister B, the one who borrowed the mattress, who has it in her possession? It's Sister B because she has received a favour

from being lent the mattress in the first place. So she's had a kindness done to her. So now she can follow that up by disposing of the mattress. I have to agree. It's Sister B. Sister B has to dispose of the mattress. Oh, wait, but what if Sister A secretly knew there was a hole in the mattress

and just wanted it out of her possession so someone else could deal with it? Oh. Surely not. Surely not. Surely not. Surely not. Unless you are that calculated. What do you guys reckon, producers? Sister A or Sister B? Oh, originally I thought

Sister B because she has it, but I actually think Sister A, the one who owns it, should have to deal with it. It's her responsibility? Yeah, because it's hers. Unless she specifically is asking for the other one to do it as a favour. Okay, let's imagine it's a bigger item. Let's imagine it's a car.

Oh, which takes quite a lot of organisation. No, you can't compare the two. You can't because you can't just dispose of a car. Okay, okay, okay. No, no, no, no, no. Wait, wait, wait, no. Okay, so what if Sister A has a car

and then she's got a spare car, like a crappy car. She just has two cars. Yeah. Sister B... Borrows the crappy car. Borrows the... Says, hey Sister B borrows the crappy car. Says, hey, can I borrow the crappy car? My car's donezo. My car's donezo forever.

Can I borrow the car for the next wee while? And as a favour, and Sister A goes, yep, come and get it. So she comes and gets the car. She's driving it for three months and three months that car also blows gets the car. She's driving it for three months and three months that car also blows up the

transmission. Who gets rid of that car? Sister B. Yeah, B. Sister B. She was driving it for free for three months. For three months and she borrowed that car as is, where is? It's Sister B. I would say that Sister B would have to repair the transmission too if she wanted the car back.

Oh, that makes it difficult oh i don't know yeah and there it's so fun when the problem isn't your own have you seen the story about the woman on tiktok at the moment the music artist who's got the terminal cancer i have seen um this story. So sad but also pretty amazing. Sad and incredible at the same time. If you don't know it, if it hasn't come up on your feed yet, her name is Kat Janus and she

is dying. She's exhausted all of her treatment options and she's currently receiving hospice care at home because that's all that's left for her. She has released one final song and what she's done is she's signed all the rights for that song over to her son to pay for his school fees

and his music lessons after she's gone. He's young. He's like... Young boy. Yeah, it doesn't say how old he is but he looks like he's about six. Yeah. And he's going to lose his mum

and she's done this thing. She's not like super famous already. She doesn't have a huge back catalogue that's going to earn her money. And obviously not a lot of money to leave him when she goes. No, but this is the thing about social media and this world that we live in now. TikTok has got a hold of it and it is blowing the song up. It is going crazy on the app at the moment.

How cool is that? Yeah. The song is currently on the app at the moment. How cool is that? The song is currently huge on TikTok. It's trending on TikTok. It's now entered the official UK singles chart. She's in the UK. She's never had a song in the top 40 before. This is awesome. This is great things that social media do.

The song is sitting at number eight in the official UK singles chart at the moment. It's number one on the iTunes app around the world because people are now going, what else can we do? We can go and buy it from iTunes. If you can figure out how to use your iTunes. I don't know how. The first time since 2016.

Does anyone know how to do that anymore? Isn't that incredible though? Yeah. This is the song. It's by an artist called Kat Janis. You'll find it. And it's called Dance Yourself. It's called Dance You Out of My Head.

And there's every chance that this could end up on the radio. It could be everywhere. What a cool thing. People are just, even if they're not looking to make content, they're just putting up a video of them dancing to this song. I love it. Because every time it gets heard more, it makes more money, and then it goes to the right course.

And the coolest bit about it is she gets to see all of this before she passes on. I know. Isn't that amazing? And it'll also give her a sense of calm that her son will have something, you know, in his future. And it's a great song, too. It sounds like a great song. So if you're into it, go and search it up. It's called Kat Janis.
