Mostly just on time, though. Yeah, late people are so frustrating. Oh, remember we talked about time blindness last week?
Starting point is 00:00:47 Oh, what a load of BS. You've got to make an allowance for time blindness. In 2023, you've got to accept time blindness as an excuse. Get your things together. I'm not late.
Starting point is 00:00:56 I'm time blind. All right, let's kick it off. Hey, have you submitted your kitchen hack to us at ZM Online? Thanks to New World and the new MasterChef cookware range,

Then how do you, why can you hold your breath for four minutes? Just having those holding your breath competitions with all the cousins and that at the grandparents' houses growing up. That's wild. He's just very competitive. You know, Jaden, you're not allowed to breathe through your nose because that counts.
Starting point is 00:03:20 Like that episode of Friends, eh? Yeah, I love that episode. Hey, Jaden, your buzzer is tradie. Tiffany, your buzzer is lady. Whoever gets three answers correct first gets the 50 bucks from KFC and the win. So good luck. Here we go, guys. Question number one.

Starting point is 00:04:48 I've got four jobs now. Four jobs. 21st lady champion. Bree and Clint. I know we don't talk about COVID anymore. Sucker. Well, they say don't talk about, at the dinner table,
Starting point is 00:05:00 don't talk about religion, politics, and COVID. Yeah, and COVID. COVID's added to that list. Everybody is just, everybody's triggered by that. But this is interesting. Researchers in the Netherlands, the never Netherlands, researchers in the Netherlands.
Starting point is 00:05:16 Was the researcher Peter Pan? Yeah. Dr. Peter Pan. They have found there's one thing that people do that is associated with a much higher risk of getting COVID. Picking their nose. Yes. Is it? Is that right?
Starting point is 00:05:33 Yeah. It's picking your nose. Well, you're putting, because they said the worst thing you can do is like because you're touching things and then you touch your face. Remember there was a whole campaign about teaching us how to wash our hands? And we're like, oh, we're not stupid. And now, three years on, yeah, picking your nose is the highest
Starting point is 00:05:50 risk of getting COVID. What they did is they studied healthcare workers who still get COVID a lot because they are in such close proximity with sick people, you know? And they have to treat people who still have COVID. And 85% of health workers in their study
Starting point is 00:06:06 admitted to picking their nose. They said, yeah, I pick my nose. I'm a normal person. I pick my nose regularly. And of that, of the people who said, yeah, I pick my nose, 17% of them got COVID. Of the people that said they didn't pick their nose, only 6% of them got COVID.
Starting point is 00:06:22 Right, so more people. A higher percentage of people who picked their nose got COVID than people who didn't pick their nose. Yeah. This is a little bit graphic, but they said the dark, moist nooks and crannies of the nasal cavities are an ideal environment for germs such as the coronavirus. And because the virus can land on surfaces that you touch,
Starting point is 00:06:47 you then touch them and stick that finger up your nose, bada bing, bada boom, you've stuck COVID in your nose. And then you breathe it into your lungs and you've got COVID. It makes sense. Doesn't it? Makes a lot of sense. Doesn't it? My question is, is there actually really truly anyone
Starting point is 00:07:01 who doesn't pick their nose? I know you're not supposed to pick your nose. I know that we're taught not to pick our nose. Why are you not supposed to? Can I ask? Is that what we've been trained to? Because it's dirty. Because it's dirty.
Starting point is 00:07:12 Because it is bacteria up your nose. That's what you're picking out. But then what if a tissue just doesn't cut it? Me, personally, I'll be honest, I definitely pick my nose from time to time. Thank you. Thank you for your honesty. I'm honest. I will try and use a I definitely pick my nose from time to time. Thank you. Thank you for your honesty. I'm honest. I will try and use a tissue and blow my nose,
Starting point is 00:07:28 but then sometimes it just doesn't get the job done. Look, there is nothing more satisfying. God, it's good when you get a good one. There is nothing more satisfying than getting those big ones. And you can breathe again. You know the ones that hinder your breathing? Have you seen those TikTok videos where they open the dam for the first time in 20 years and the stuff, just that big sludgy thing comes out of the dam?
Starting point is 00:07:51 The one where you put the water thing up? No, the actual dam, like a Hoover Dam type dam. I'm just saying that's what it's like. Yeah, right. Have you seen those ones? Opening Tutankhamen's cave. Where people are doing the water bottle thing where you stick the bottle up one side of your nose and you flush the water up there
Starting point is 00:08:08 and all the other stuff comes out the other side. I did that after my nose surgery. I had to do that for like two months. Nose douching. Yeah. That's what it is. Yeah, it is essentially. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:17 I'm pretty sure that's what it's called. It's so satisfying. I want to ask this question this afternoon. Is there anybody listening who's willing to go on the record and say they do not pick their nose? Do you not pick your nose? Oh, $800.
Starting point is 00:08:32 You call us and tell us, and we'll tell you whether we believe you. Someone's just texted through and they said, my partner can't pick his nose because his nostrils are too small. Okay, that is. I would love to see it. Are his nostrils too small small. Okay, there it is. I would love to see it. Are his nostrils too small or are his fingers too big? You know? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:51 How small are the nostrils? Because we talked about this a long time ago and it blew our minds when we talked about it the first time how your nostril is the perfect size for your finger. Yeah, that's right. It's like part of how you're built. Exactly. Yeah. What about this text It's like part of how you're built. Exactly. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:09:05 What about this text? I like this text as well. It's not the picking of the nose that separates us, but what happens next. That is very true. That is very true. Are you a pick and flick? Are you a pick and tissue?
Starting point is 00:09:22 Are you a pick and munch? That's not the question we're asking. No, we're not. We're asking, who are the people who are willing to come on here and say, I do not pick my nose? I am superior. I am better. I do not put myself at that level where I pick my nose. Call us and tell us.
Starting point is 00:09:38 We're willing to hear it. We're willing to hear you out. Or you can text us on 9696. It's easy too. Someone on the text said, now I feel like picking my nose. Well, go for it. Get in there. Have a look left. Have a look right. It's all clear. Go for it.
Starting point is 00:09:54 You're just giving it a space up there to live. A cave for the bacteria. Brie and I are confident that everybody picks their nose. Everyone does. Whether you're willing to admit it or not, everybody picks their nose. It's like the question of do you
Starting point is 00:10:09 do? What? It's like the question of do you wee in the shower? Oh yeah. There's the people who tell the truth and say yeah. There's people who wee in the shower? And there's people who lie about weeing in the shower. And say they don't.
Starting point is 00:10:27 So we're asking similar to that. Do you not pick your nose? Isabella's here. Hi, Isabella. Hi, Isabella. Hi. You're not a nose picker? No, I am a nose picker.
Starting point is 00:10:37 Oh, okay. Okay, you are a nose picker, but you've seen something as we were talking about people picking their noses. Is that right? Yeah, I was at the traffic lights, and I just saw multiple people pick their noses. Because I was listening to you guys. Do you think we're influencing nose picking as we speak? Oh, 100%. We've had a text message already that says, God, I want to pick my nose now,
Starting point is 00:10:59 now that we're talking about it. Yeah, just do it. Okay, hey, thank you for being the eyes of the Brianne Clint show out there in the community, Isabella. We appreciate it. Nah, I've got you. Now eyes on the ground. That's Isabella live from her car. Rochelle, you don't pick your nose. Is that right?
Starting point is 00:11:17 So, I do, but my husband can't because his fingers are too big for his nostril, so he'll ask me to do it for him. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Rochelle, please tell me that you refuse to pick your husband's nose for him. Oh, I'm all for it. I find it probably satisfying, as disgusting as it sounds.
Starting point is 00:11:36 It probably should have gone anon, but whatever. Rochelle! You enjoy it? That's true love. That's true love. You enjoy it? If you don't get That's true love. You enjoy it? If you don't get the ick from that, then that is your true soulmate, my friend. Would you let him pick your nose?
Starting point is 00:11:53 Well, I can't because his fingers are too big for it. How big are this man's fingers? Are they just sausages on his hands or something? Something like that. He's just got big, big manly hands. How big is this man? How tall is he? I think he thinks he's like 6'1", maybe.
Starting point is 00:12:13 Okay. Okay, yeah. So he's like, you know, fairly normal. Fairly standard. Just got mega mitts on him. All right. And you've got those little nose-picking fingers that just get the job done, Rochelle. Yes. Oh, we done, Rochelle. Yes.
Starting point is 00:12:25 Oh, we're losing Rochelle. But we got the gist of the story. I wonder what she gets in return. Like, if she's doing that as a service for her husband, what does he... What does he do for her? Yeah, you scratch my back, I'll scratch yours. What's he bringing to the table?
Starting point is 00:12:42 Yeah, you pick my nose, I'll... Does he bite her toenails off? Put those big fingers to use somehow. Oh. Finally, this person does want to be anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hey, how's it going?
Starting point is 00:12:56 Good, thanks. You've got a special nose picking method you want to share with the public. Yeah, so I don't like using the finger because it's a bit gross for me. Every morning after I get out of the shower, I get the old cotton bud up there and do a swirl. Oh yeah, cotton bud is
Starting point is 00:13:12 good. I am a bit of a cotton bud person myself too. Cotton bud's good in the ears. I've never jammed it up the nose. It's good after all of this. I have because of the COVID test. Yeah, it's good when the nostril's wet, not when it's not wet. Oh yeah, you've got to get them out when they're soft.
Starting point is 00:13:28 Yeah. Oh, yuck. Hey, Anonymous, because it seems like you'd be on my level with this, do you like a Bushman's blow in the shower? Yes, yes, yes, yes. Blow in and get out and swirl. Oh, Bushman Blow. Nothing better. The blow and swirl.
Starting point is 00:13:46 Okay, this is enlightening. Thank you, Anonymous. We appreciate it. Someone texted in and they said, guys, roll up a piece of toilet paper into a cone. It works just like a finger. And sometimes it can go even deeper. Wow, I'm learning so much this afternoon.
Starting point is 00:14:02 Bree and Clint. Yesterday marked the end of season 10 of Love Island UK. Well, we're down on TVNZ+. We're not going to spoil it. We're not going to spoil it. We're not going to talk any spoilers here. We're not going to talk about what happened in the episode. What I do want to talk about is a new idea.
Starting point is 00:14:24 Where do we go to from here? Because we've had 10 seasons of, you know, young 20-year-olds in a villa. They're all super hot. They're sexy and they're trying to find love. My favourite bit is when a 24-year-old comes into the villa. And everyone's like, whoa. The cryptkeeper. I had seen a couple of times like, yeah, you're 24, but you're all right.
Starting point is 00:14:45 You should have seen. You're all right. This season, a 30-year-old came into the villa, and I said to my partner, I was like, damn, anyone can get on the show now. They're putting 30-year-olds in. What I do love, I love the parts where they do all the intros to the islanders each season. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:15:06 I've got a bit of a snippet here of this latest season. So, I like pretty boys. Teef is not a big thing for me. The whiter, the better. My type, they've got to be smaller than me. I'm six foot one. I just need some spice there. If I get a nice girl, I want to get bored.
Starting point is 00:15:23 Three physical things I'm looking for is probably height, nice smile, and a good fashion sense. I'd say the difference between an English traditional guy and me is I don't wear skinny jeans. So embarrassing. You know, they're saying what their type is,
Starting point is 00:15:40 what they think their best feature is, and it's all, you know, they're young. Yeah. So they all kind of sound the same. I thought, what a great idea if the next season of Love Island, they took a bunch of us millennials, people in their 30s, you know, early 40s. Millennial Love Island.
Starting point is 00:15:59 Put a millennial Love Island on the television. It'll be relatable. And what would it sound like in those beginning parts of the intros? What would a millennial love island sound like? And I have created that for you. Oi, oi, hello there. My name's Bree. My name's Claudia.
Starting point is 00:16:20 My name's Clint. Hello, I'm Ross. Hi, I'm Lucy. I'm Sam. My best feature is that I have a full manual licence. That's right, lads, I can drive your stick. The three things I'm looking for in a partner would be a steady job, a good KiwiSaver, and maybe even a mortgage.
Starting point is 00:16:38 Brr, hot! The ladies, well, they call me Daddy, mainly because I'm a father of two. I think my best feature would be that I know who I am and I'm medicated accordingly. I'm looking for a guy that knows how to pack a dishwasher correctly. Nothing hotter than that. When I go out, I'm usually in the Uber by 9pm. So if you like an early bedtime and a supportive mattress, then I'm your guy.
Starting point is 00:17:03 Sign me up. Sign me up. Sign me up. Sign me up for that. Every single person in the villa keeps their T-shirt on. Oh, keen. And we use 50 plus sunscreen. It's going to happen. Who's in?
Starting point is 00:17:16 We're going to make it happen. Millennial Love Island. Get TVNZ on the phone. Come on, where are they? Bree and Clint. Bree and Clint. What does the word fubbing mean? It's a relatively new word, something that I think especially,
Starting point is 00:17:32 you know, our generation has kind of started. Don't give away too much because I want Claudia to try and guess what it means. Yeah, I'd love to. Because it's a weird sounding word. Because when we were talking about it off air, Claudia goes, oh, you guys are talking about something dirty. It's naughty.
Starting point is 00:17:49 That's gross. It's naughty. Fubbing. P-H-U-B-B-I-N-G. Claudia, what does fubbing mean? I did a brainstorm and I came up with a couple of things. Okay. So first, it sounds to me like snubbing.
Starting point is 00:18:02 So I'm like, is it like you're ignoring someone? You're fubbing them. Okay, that's a good guess. We'll put that down. Yeah. My second'm like, is it like you're ignoring someone? You're fubbing them. Okay, that's a good guess. We'll put that down. My second one is, is it another word for, you know, when DJs are like, wicker, wicker? Is that fubbing? Wicker, wicker.
Starting point is 00:18:14 Okay, I thought that was scratching. But yeah, okay, we'll put that down too. And then my other one, it sounds like it might be that. You want a DJ to fub in the club? Yeah, man. It sounds like the little run-walk thing you do when you trip over, when you try to save yourself. Oh, you stumble forward.
Starting point is 00:18:29 Yeah, you stumble and you catch yourself, but you play it off like you were going for a run. What is that called? Fubbing. Fubbing, possibly. Apparently. Producer Brooke, do you know what fubbing means? I thought it was like when a cat smooshes up to the...
Starting point is 00:18:43 I love when they do that. Yeah, I think that's what it sounds like. Getting fubbed by a cat. Well, you said you do it to your partner. Yeah, I do. Oh, so you kind of cuddle into your partner. My partner fubs me as well. Mutual fubbing.
Starting point is 00:18:57 Claudia came the closest. Yeah, Claudia, you were actually pretty much spot on. It's the run-walk when you trip over. No, it's the DJ scratch. Oh, it's the DJ scratch. Fubbing is a combo of the word phone and snubbing. Oh my god, my instincts are amazing.
Starting point is 00:19:14 Essentially it means when you're so entranced by your phone or you're like looking at your phone when your partner's talking to you, when they might want your attention, you're concentrating on your phone. It's called fubbing. That's what you guys did to me earlier.
Starting point is 00:19:28 Yeah, we fubbed you. And I just ran in there and yelled at you. You were trying to get Dean McCarthy ready for us to talk to earlier in the show. Fubbed you off. We fubbed you off. Yeah. We were in a fub funk. Nobody fubs me off.
Starting point is 00:19:39 Fubbing is becoming more and more common because people will, by default, pull out their phone without even thinking about it. So you'll be sitting at the table with someone and they'll pull out their phone and then before you know it, they're scrolling. That scrolling is fubbing. They have fubbed you. Incredibly rude, especially if it's in a conversation. Like if you're having a conversation with someone,
Starting point is 00:19:59 we would all be guilty of doing it. If the conversation maybe stalls for a bit or if they're not getting the story out fast enough. Do you know who's a shocking fubber? Let's wrap this up. I'm going to go on my phone. Do you know who's a shocking fubber? Who? Maddie McLean.
Starting point is 00:20:13 He's the worst. I didn't say it to him, but I would say it to his face, to the point that Breakfast, his TV show, took his phone off him for the whole week and they put him on a dumb phone. Did they? He's a fubber. He's a mother fubber. He's a notorious mother fubber.
Starting point is 00:20:28 Yeah. Yeah. He loves a fub. There you go. It means to snub somebody with your phone. But I quite like Claudia's one, meaning that it'd be wiki wiki. Fub in this club. Fub in this club.
Starting point is 00:20:42 Fub in this club. Bree and Clint. Club in this club. Club in this club. Let's talk about what is the most, what is the funniest movie according to science? When you take science. Nothing funnier than science. To figure out what is the funniest movie. And when I say science, I use that real lightly. Okay.
Starting point is 00:21:04 So a group of people, what they've done, they've called themselves experts, but what they've done is they've analysed different IMDB reviews to essentially get the funniest movie of all time. Right. They just collated the data. They've collated the data. They've collated the data. They started with a list of the top 125 most popular comedy films on the website. And then they essentially searched all the different reviews with words like funny or hilarious and stuff like that. What if someone had written this movie is not funny?
Starting point is 00:21:46 That's a great point. Yeah. But not our problem because it's not our data. Yeah. Okay. I want to know this. I want to know what the funniest movie is. According to science.
Starting point is 00:21:55 Yeah. Actually, should we take a guess from everyone first, what you think would be the funniest movie according to science? I can only tell you what I think is the funniest movie. Okay. I don't know about science. What is the funniest movie according to you? For me it's probably Step Brothers.
Starting point is 00:22:14 Very funny film. Yeah. Claudia, what's the funniest movie according to you? I'm wondering if it's Bridesmaids. Oh, that's good. Yeah, it's got to be up there. Yeah, okay. Phil and producer Brooke, what's the funniest movie up there. Oh, that's good. Yeah. It's got to be up there. Yeah. But yeah. Yeah. Okay.
Starting point is 00:22:26 Yeah. Phil and producer Brooke, what's the funniest movie? All I can think is Cat in the Hat. I found that funny. Who let the 12-year-old in again to pick up the phones here at ZM? Who? I told. No, Cat in the Hat.
Starting point is 00:22:40 Put it down. Put it down. Cat in the Hat. I'd have to throw in the ring Get Him to the Greek. I think that is such a funny movie. Oh, the Russell Brand movie. Russell Brand and Jonah Hill, such a good movie. But Bridesmaids for me would definitely be up there.
Starting point is 00:22:57 But none of those films have been crowned. Not even Cat in the Hat. Not even Cat in the Hat. Forgetting Sarah Marshall. Such a good film. But no, according to this study and analysation, Superbad was named the funniest film ever. Broback? Superbad.
Starting point is 00:23:15 Superbad. I literally watched it last week. McLovin. Such. Great movie. I am McLovin. Such a good movie. I am McLovin. Such a good movie. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:23:26 The funny thing about my back is it's actually located on my... Yeah, you had to pick that quote, didn't you? There's so many good moments in that movie. The Ryan Reynolds film Deadpool was a close second, according to this study. Yeah, okay, okay. Which also very funny. Very funny.
Starting point is 00:23:43 Yeah. Yeah. I thought we could open it up to the people this afternoon because this is just based on IMDB reviews, but I want to hear what our people think. What do you guys think? What is the funniest movie ever according to you? Can we get any kind of consensus on it? Is there a movie that stands out?
Starting point is 00:24:02 Or is it just Superbad? Is it just... Or it could... you can vote. It could just be Superbad. Yeah, you can vote for Superbad. 0800 dial ZM or you can text through your answers on 9696. According to you, what is the funniest movie ever? Brian Clint.
Starting point is 00:24:16 We're trying to find the funniest movie of all time. He sang a song from an old pirate musical. But Derek got his football buddies to replace the choir and sing Brennan Has a Mangina. Brennan has a mangina, Brennan has a mangina. Finally, the audience and it's so catchy. Are you allowed to say mangina on the radio? It's very catchy.
Starting point is 00:24:40 I mean, I can see why they joined in. According to Science, apparently they've analysed it and according to Science, they've said the funniest movie of all time is Superbad. So far, obviously, you know, it can be overtaken. I hung out in my basement, the chill zone is where we chillax, relax and chill at once. Such a good movie.
Starting point is 00:25:06 It's been a while since a truly universally funny movie has come out, eh? Go back and watch it. Like, I can't tell you how funny those two are together. Jonah Hill and Michael Cera. Yes. Those two together, it's like something special, but even Jonah Hill, you can tell how much of like just freestyle
Starting point is 00:25:30 he has in that movie. What about where he's like, shut up! We're out of time, you pissed your pants! People don't forget! What are we going to land on though as the funniest movie? What movies have we not even considered? Joel's here. G'day, Joel. Hi, Joel. G'day, team, how are you? We're well, though, as the funniest movie? What movies have we not even considered? Joel's here. G'day, Joel.
Starting point is 00:25:45 Hi, Joel. G'day, team. How are you? We're well, thanks, Joel. Tell us. Throw it in the ring. What's the funniest movie, according to you? Okay, my second runner-up, close behind, is Anchorman.
Starting point is 00:25:56 Oh, such. Yeah, Anchorman 1, not Anchorman 2. Yeah. Yeah, Anchorman 2 has its good moments, but Anchorman 1 is just, yeah, great. Anchorman 2, when it gets into the shark content, I was out. The masterpiece comedy, in my opinion, is Hot Rod. Oh, Hot Rod is such an underrated movie. Hot Rod has got Andy Samberg from Lonely Island in it.
Starting point is 00:26:21 I feel like I may have seen it, but I need a refresher. It's got Isla Fisher in it. Yeah. Safe word is fisky. It's just great. It's Napoleon Dynamite-esque, but not as weird, eh? No. Yeah, it's got a storyline. But it is just
Starting point is 00:26:42 quotable and just so hilarious. I'll put it on my list, Joel. Appreciate the tip. Great call, Joel. You've exposed some people to a new film. Let's go to Sam. Hi, Sam. Hi, Sam.
Starting point is 00:26:52 G'day, guys. How's it going? We're good, thanks. What does it for you? What's the funniest movie ever, mate? Well, I do love So For Bad, but for me, the funniest movie ever is the 1980s film Airplane.
Starting point is 00:27:04 Yes. Yeah, I've seen it. That's a classic. That's the one where they're seen and he goes, and that's when I developed my drinking problem. And he lifts the glass of water up and he tips it in his eye. It's weird. It's quite a strange film, eh?
Starting point is 00:27:17 Yeah, it was kind of back when comedy wasn't done as much and it was a very new kind of comedy. But it's just so funny how I could watch it. Kind of paving the way. Yeah, yeah. It kind of kicked off a few actors' careers as well, like Leslie Nielsen. Yeah. Perfect.
Starting point is 00:27:32 It kind of has that Monty Python vibe. Yeah. You know, that strange kind of comedy. In an American kind of way. Let's go to Tessa. Hi, Tessa. Hi, Tessa. Hi, guys.
Starting point is 00:27:41 How are you? Good, thanks. Tessa, what's the movie for you that you just think is the pinnacle of funny? I kind of have a top two. The first one is The Heat with Melissa McCarthy and Sandra Bullock. I love that
Starting point is 00:27:56 movie where she cuts off her pants and her shirt in the club. Yeah. And then the second one is Get Hard With Will Ferrell And Kevin Hart So good
Starting point is 00:28:07 So good That's the one Where Will Ferrell's Going to prison right And he employs Kevin Hart To toughen him up Yeah
Starting point is 00:28:13 Like that scene When they're on the Tennis court And he's like Preparing him for prison Of like For people who Are gonna like
Starting point is 00:28:18 Love him up and stuff Yeah Yeah Very funny Such an unlikely pairing too But like When they're together, they were so good.
Starting point is 00:28:27 Yeah. Love it. Great suggestion. Thank you, Tessa. What is the movie? What is the movie with Will Ferrell? And there's a scene where he's like, my plums, my big, juicy, full plums. It's not a movie.
Starting point is 00:28:47 Rap. Rap for the pick. I think it's Eastbound and Down. Oh, my God. I think it's a TV show, Eastbound and Down, when he plays the secondhand BMW dealer. That's, yeah. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:28:57 That is such a funny scene. Will Ferrell's in a lot of the funniest films ever. Great suggestions. We could go on about this forever. It's so good. Did you touch my drum set? Yep. Are you so sweaty?
Starting point is 00:29:08 I was watching Cops. I think they're starting to like each other. Did we just become best friends? Yep. Brie and Clint. Brie and Clint. Once upon a time, there was a girl. She was smart, debatable, talented, eh, athletic.
Starting point is 00:29:27 Not really. But picking a movie title based on just the plot line, that she can do. Brie and Clint's What's The Plot? Our movie guessing game where today we're playing for $400 cash. $400 cash. And all you've got to do is get two movies correct before Brie does.
Starting point is 00:29:46 Four bills? Can you take it from me, Shim? Hi, Shim. Hey, how you guys doing? Very good, thanks. You good at your movies, Shim? Yeah, hopefully. Well, we're about to find out.
Starting point is 00:29:59 Shim, how this works is I start reading out movie plot lines and as soon as you think you know what it is, you yell out Shim or Bree's going to yell out Bree and you have a chance to tell me what the name of that
Starting point is 00:30:10 movie is. You get it right, you get a point. You get two right, you win the game. Easy, right? Last week Bree said me giving a theme made it too easy for her to win. I didn't say that. She said you putting the theme out there is making this too easy for her to win. I didn't say that. She said, you putting the theme
Starting point is 00:30:26 out there is making this too easy for me. So we heard you and this week. God, you are putting words in my mouth. This week we are hiding the theme. Okay. So Brie, should you get two movies correct before shim to get the win, you
Starting point is 00:30:42 will have to tell me what the theme was. There is a theme. We're just not telling you what it is. That's impossible. Well, you said it was too easy last week, so we've made it a bit harder. Are you ready to play, Shem? Yeah, let's do it.
Starting point is 00:30:58 Let's do it. Hot on those buzzers. Here it comes. Movie number one. Using his love of comics as inspiration, a teenager decides to reinvent himself as a superhero.
Starting point is 00:31:12 Brie. Brie. Oh, kick-ass. Kick-ass is correct. That's one point to Brie. Got no idea what the theme is yet. Superhero movies? Movie number two. A historian and...
Starting point is 00:31:30 Bree. Bree. Indiana Jones. Indiana Jones is incorrect. Worth a guess. Do you want to have a free guess, Shim? Yeah. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:40 Transformers. Transformers is... The Rise of the Beast. Incorrect. I'll carry on with the movie plot. We've only got three words in, so let's keep going. A historian and codebreaker has been searching his whole life for a rumoured treasure dating back to...
Starting point is 00:31:54 Shem. Shem. National Treasure. National Treasure is correct. Nice, Shem. Very good. Okay, we're all tied up. Oh, no.
Starting point is 00:32:03 That means this is for the win. Movie number three. An FBI agent... Brie. Brie. Miscongeniality. Worth a guess. Shim, do you want to have a free guess?
Starting point is 00:32:20 No, I'm not inside. Too many. I'll keep going. An FBI agent who is obsessed with bringing a terrorist to justice tracks him down after he boarded a plane in Los Angeles. After the plane crashes and the terrorist is severely injured, possibly dead, the agent undergoes surgery to remove... Free.
Starting point is 00:32:41 Free. Two-Face. Two-Face. You're so close, but that's not the name of the movie. Shim. Freedom. Shim. Predestination.
Starting point is 00:32:51 Incorrect. I'll keep going. You're very close. And Shim, I'll give you the same clue. Brie is very close with what she said. He undergoes... Brie. Brie.
Starting point is 00:33:01 Face-off. Face-off is correct. Oh, gosh! Oh, God. Oh, Jim. So for the win. Oh, what? What's the theme? What is the thing that links face off, national treasure,
Starting point is 00:33:17 and kick ass together? Is it someone that's in all three? I feel like Shim might have the answer. I think it's an actor that's in all three. And who is that actor? Wait, let me think about this. Nicolas Cage. Shit, she's good.
Starting point is 00:33:45 Get in, son. That is a well-deserved victory. Thank you. You earned that one. Shim, you pushed her right to the limit. You're going away with 50 KFC chicken dollars as well. Congratulations. Thank you so much.
Starting point is 00:33:56 Well played, Shim. You nearly had me this afternoon. Well played. Face Off is such a weird movie. It's so ridiculous. John Travolta and Nicholas Cage, they sew their faces onto each other. And it's like perfect. It's so ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:34:14 Time for a birthday banger. Here we go. Birthday banger to get you home. What was the number one song when you turned 16? If you don't know it, you can call us and we'll figure it out. Let's talk to Jamie. Hi, Jamie. Hi, Jamie.

Starting point is 00:36:24 and on your 16th birthday this would have been at the top. Oh, it's an absolute tune for you Nat. Belly Joel, Uptown Girl. You didn't go and see him at Eden Park earlier this year, did you Natalie? No, I didn't. Oh, he was phenomenal. He was so

Starting point is 00:37:03 Not too bad. Sounds all right, Dan. Well, let's do your birthday, Banger. What's your date of birth? 15th of December, 89. All right. That means you were 16 in 2005. And on your 16th birthday, this had a number one hit.
Starting point is 00:37:24 It's the lovely lady lumps. Daniel. How's your humps, Daniel? Good? Don't worry about my humps either. Okay, wait there. Dan's like, stop asking me about my humps. Hey, Clint, can you get your eyes off my humps, please?
Starting point is 00:37:45 My eyes are up here. I love that. I love Billy Joel, stop asking me about my humps. Hey, Clint, can you get your eyes off my humps, please? My eyes are up here. I love that. I love Billy Joel, but I'm voting for Justice Crew. I really like that Black Eyed Peas song. I think I'm going with my humps. Okay, we're going to go to split vote. We're going to go to producer Claudia today. Hello, Claudia.
Starting point is 00:37:59 Hi, Claude. Oh, gosh. Okay, this is hard because those are the two I was already deciding between. But I feel like Daniel's tipped me over the edge. And I really like Daniel's energy. It was Daniel's humps, yeah. Was it Daniel? Daniel had great pitch.
Starting point is 00:38:14 Daniel, if you say, if you say, my name is Daniel and I've got lovely lady lumps, you'll be the winner of Birthday Banger. My name is Daniel and I've got lovely lady humps. Yes, you do, Daniel. I've got lovely lady lumps. Yes, you do, Daniel.
Starting point is 00:38:27 You saucy minx. That's on the record, by the way, Daniel. That exists forever now.
Starting point is 00:38:33 No. Yeah, no. We'll get that extra support out for you, Daniel,
Starting point is 00:38:38 and those lovely lady lumps, all right? We take care of our listeners. Brian Clint, you're on ZM.
Starting point is 00:38:48 Brian Clint, you're on ZM. Brian Clint. Made you writing a song like that today. What you going to do with all that breast? All that breast inside that shirt? It's a different time, eh? I'm going to get a fully supportive bra is what I'm going to do. Especially if I'm going jogging. But I could go back to my younger self and just tell, like, urge my younger self.
Starting point is 00:39:13 Yeah. Wear a more supportive sports bra. Yeah, but you wouldn't listen. No, I probably wouldn't. You could go back to that person tomorrow and they'd say, get out of here, grandma. I'd say wear a more supportive sports bra, especially when you're playing sport, and do your damn skincare routine earlier. In your late 20s.
Starting point is 00:39:33 It's too late. The damage has been done. We spent two years trying to convince our producer, Anastasia, to wear sunscreen. She was 23 and she was running every day. I rode her ass like I was on her ass about wearing sunscreen and I said, do it now. Do it now. You will thank me
Starting point is 00:39:53 in 10 years. You will find me wherever you are and wherever I am. You will email me and you will thank me to the day you die. Couldn't hear it. Couldn't hear it. Wear sunscreen. You can't hear it at that age because you're too young and hot and you're like, I will never change. Also.
Starting point is 00:40:07 Nothing will ever change. Just don't put your face in the sun. I can't urge anything more. Even if you want to have a little lay in the sun and get a little tan, cover your face. Oh, my God. Just, anyway. That was a good vent, actually.
Starting point is 00:40:21 Man, my humps really triggered us, didn't they? It did. Didn't they, Joel? Look, let's talk about something fun and upbeat because a grandma, you know those raffles you see maybe in a shopping centre, maybe at the supermarket, and they'll run the raffles where they're either giving away a house or a car? I've never seen a house one, but I know the car one. Right.
Starting point is 00:40:47 Yeah. In Australia, and I think around, and I'm sure they exist here too. A house. They do massive raffles where they're raising money for something or it's to do with an organisation and it's a raffle for a house. Okay. There's a woman over in the UK who has won a mansion in one of those raffles. A mansion? A mansion. When I say it's the biggest grand prize that this particular
Starting point is 00:41:16 company has ever given away. Okay. And when I say mansion, it's a waterfront property and it's worth, in New Zealand dollars, about $9.4 million. Oh, okay. It's humongous. It's six bedrooms, cinema room, large terrace, boat storage, secluded garden. It's got the whole lot. Imagine the rates, Bill. I'd be out of control.
Starting point is 00:41:40 That's where my mind goes. We've got some audio of June Smith from Essex when she found out she'd won the mansion. Over there, June, in the distance. A photograph of a house. You've won the house! Oh, my God! You are our biggest grand prize winner ever.
Starting point is 00:42:12 It's going to change my life because I've lost my husband last year and it's going to make so much difference. It really is. Oh, my gosh. Oh, good on you, June. She's going to have to get a boat. Well, turns out, because this was about four months ago. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:29 And they asked her, because it's a gigantic house. Yeah. And they asked her, they said, June, she's 74. Are you going to keep the place? You know, what are you going to do with it? Of course, because you can sell it. Yeah. I didn't even think about that.
Starting point is 00:42:42 Yeah. And she goes, yeah, no, I'll keep it for a bit and I'll decide later down the track. Anyway, three months later, she's put it back on the property market. Yeah, of course. And she's going to sell it. She doesn't need a house that big. Even the cost to insure that house. It'd be out of control.
Starting point is 00:42:59 Yeah. Yeah. But I mean, imagine winning a house. I know, I'd take it. I'd take it. I'd take it. Oh, I will take the headache around selling it or doing what I have to do. They used to do a thing in Lotto in New Zealand called Big Wednesday. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:15 Where you win the lifestyle. So you would win the car, the house, the boat, the batch, the MX card with X amount of hundreds of thousands of dollars preloaded on it. And you had the choice to, they didn't publicise this bit, but if you won it, you could have those prizes delivered to your house or you could take the cash equivalent. Cash equivalent. 100% cash equivalent. I'm taking the cash equivalent. Let me choose my own boat. Yeah, I want to choose where my batch is.
Starting point is 00:43:45 Let me choose my own. You know? Aston Martin V8 Vantage. I can make those decisions. A guy I used to work with. Let me waste the money myself. A guy that I used to work with, I remember he told me this story because he was probably like 15 years older than me
Starting point is 00:44:00 and he said to me one time, because we got on the topic of stuff that you've won and he said oh when i was 19 i entered into one of the surf life-saving raffles and they were giving away a bmw m3 like top of the range yeah real nice sports car yeah and he said when i was 19 i bought a ticket in this raffle because i really like the look of the car. And he goes, and I won it. I said, what did you do? Like you're 19. Like can you imagine a 19-year-old with that kind of car?
Starting point is 00:44:32 He said, he goes, my parents forced me to sell it because you either can take the car or the dealership will say, you know, they kind of give you. Buy it back off you. Yeah, exactly. They'll buy it back off you. And so his parents forced him. They were like, absolutely not. Are you getting that car?
Starting point is 00:44:50 Yeah. You are taking the money. And they forced him to take the money and he ended up buying some plots of land up in the hinterland near the Gold Coast. Oh, okay. And now it's worth millions. Wow. Buy your own BMW.
Starting point is 00:45:02 Yeah. Yeah, pretty much. Wow. You hear about those stories. Still yet to happen to me. I'm still waiting. I bought a ticket in the lotto last night. No luck.
Starting point is 00:45:12 Still waiting. I think I've got three numbers. Still waiting. Yeah, I thought we could ask people, though, this afternoon, because it's always interesting to hear the stories. Do you know someone, or maybe it was you, that has won either a house or a car?
Starting point is 00:45:27 One of the ladies who works at one of the other radio stations here in the building, she won a car and a washing machine in two separate supermarket competitions in the same year. You're kidding. Yeah. What would you be more stoked with? I mean, washing machines. Yeah, sure. See the RPM on that thing? This is a long shot. You're right. But 0 What would you be more stoked with? I mean, washing machine. Yeah, sure.
Starting point is 00:45:45 See the RPM on that thing? This is a long shot. You're right. But 0800 dial ZM. Have you ever won a car or a house? Or it could be someone you know. Maybe your parents have. Or a washing machine.
Starting point is 00:45:55 Or a... Those are the three things. Or a boat. Or a boat. A boat counts. Yeah, yeah, yeah. A boat counts. A boat, car, house, washing machine.

Starting point is 00:46:57 And it was all sign written with ZM and whatnot. That's pretty cool. Have you still got it? Yeah. No, I do not. No, it actually got stolen. Oh, dang. No way.
Starting point is 00:47:08 Oh, the signage was a beacon. Oh, you know what they say, easy come, easy go, eh, Adam? Yeah, that's right. That's right. But yeah, what a buzz. It was cool. That's a cool story, man. Thanks for calling up.

Starting point is 00:47:25 Hey, Bree. Hey, Clint. How are you going? We're good, mate. How are you? I'm good. Yeah. So it was me who won a house down in Queenstown worth around $900,000.
Starting point is 00:47:40 I was looking at a house at the time for myself, and I was just like, okay, yeah, I'll put my name into a drawer and got a house down in Queenstown, and now I rented out and I live in Christchurch. You're bloody joking me, Tristan. You won a $900,000 house in one of the most beautiful places in the world in Queenstown. I did. I did. So, with the property value going up and everything like that, it's gone up to the $400,000.
Starting point is 00:48:18 Oh, Tristan. Who did you win it off? I won it through a real estate agent. Oh, through like the development company that was building the houses? Yeah. Oh, wow. God, how bloody good. How did they tell you that you'd won the house and did you believe them?
Starting point is 00:48:38 So obviously my details were on the entry form. They gave me a call and they asked me to come into the office and I was just like, okay, yeah, I'll come in. And then the top dog of the place came down and spoke to me and said, congratulations, you just won a house down in Queensland. Oh, mate, I dream about that funny to me and to congratulations, you just won a house down in Queensland. Oh, mate. That's life changing. I dream about that happening to me.
Starting point is 00:49:08 I'm like, oh, how good would it be if someone just put a house on my doorstep? Thanks for sharing, Tristan. Kate's here. Hi, Kate. Hi, Kate. Hello. Is it you that's won something big, Kate? No, it was my granddad.
Starting point is 00:49:20 What did your granddad win? He won a house and he won a car. And it was just after his 80th birthday. How? You're kidding. He won a Hartford Ocean Lottery. So he basically decided that he wanted to donate money and he got annoyed at everyone ringing him.
Starting point is 00:49:38 So he decided that he'd just put a sum of money towards a charity every year. And that was the first thing that came through the mail. So that's why he brought enough tickets to win the car as well. Wow. Oh, my God. Yeah. That is karma working its magic at its best.
Starting point is 00:49:53 He bought so many tickets that he won in the same draw twice. Yeah. The car and the house. Yeah, if you brought more than 10 tickets, you got a car as well. Oh, my God. Wow. That's brilliant. He well. Oh, my God. Wow. That's brilliant. He gave the car to my dad.
Starting point is 00:50:09 What kind of car? Do you remember? Kate, was it a nice car? It was like a Hyundai Sonata because this would be like about 20 years ago now. Right, okay. Yeah. Oh, lucky bugger. How good.
Starting point is 00:50:22 He ended up, he lived in the house till he was 97. Oh, good on him. What a great retirement. So he got a good amount of time out of it. Yeah. Karma, you're right. Yeah, it was incredible. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:33 Thanks, Kate. We appreciate it. That's a great story. Thanks, Kate. Some that are not quite a house, a car, a boat, or a washing machine, someone said, I won a vasectomy for my husband in a radio competition. How? He's like, oh, thanks. They're not that expensive. How expensive is a vasectomy? my husband in a radio competition. He's like, oh, thanks.
Starting point is 00:50:45 They're not that expensive. How expensive is a vasectomy? 500 bucks. Oh, yeah. Oh, my God. Someone texted her and said, my brother. Oh, my God. That's my dream.
Starting point is 00:50:55 My brother in Melbourne won an Eleanor Mustang. That is my dream. That's my dream car. Shelby 500. Oh, God. I'm so jealous. The car from Gone in 60 Seconds. Well, you think that's impressive.
Starting point is 00:51:07 Someone texted and said, no big deal, but I won a Maroon 5 CD from ZM a while back. I'm even more jealous. Oh, God, we used to give away the good prizes, didn't we? Radio's heyday. What happened to those days? Bring back the movie tickets. There's another one of those airplane seat swapping stories that's doing the rounds today.
Starting point is 00:51:27 You know, where people refuse to swap seats. The reason why. And someone is like, I want that, can I please have that seat? And they're like, nah. And then we debate who was in the right, should that person have given up that seat. Usually nine times out of 10,
Starting point is 00:51:39 we side with the person who was allocated the seat in the first place. We should make this into a segment. There's so many of these. This one's a bit different. Okay. There's a mother who has posted on TikTok. She was on a flight with her two kids.
Starting point is 00:51:52 Her two kids are aged four and six. For whatever reason, the airline assigned her seat some way away from the kids. So she didn't book her seats together? No. Well, she didn't check. When they boarded the flight, maybe the seats were allocated at check-in.
Starting point is 00:52:08 The kids got allocated two seats together in a row of three. And then the extra seat, the window seat beside the two kids, was a rando, some other woman. And the mum's seat was way back at the other end of the plane. She said to the woman in the window seat,
Starting point is 00:52:22 hey, these are my kids. Do you want to swap with me? Do you want me to take your seat? And the woman refused. She seat, hey, these are my kids. Do you want to swap with me? Do you want me to take your seat? And the woman refused. She said, no, this is my seat. We have to sit in our allocated seats. And the woman said, sweet. Okay, all good.
Starting point is 00:52:34 I'm off to enjoy some peace and quiet. Wait, her kids are four and six? Yeah. Yeah, but the woman wouldn't swap with her. What can you do? That seems dangerous. Yeah. Four and six?
Starting point is 00:52:44 Yeah. So she goes, all good. Enjoy my kids. I'm off to the back of the plane to have some peace and quiet. Anyway, this is what happened next. The woman refused to get up and my two children at the time were like four and six.
Starting point is 00:52:58 And I said, okay, no problem. I'm not going to argue. And I went to the back of the plane and sat in my assigned seat. It was so peaceful. And finally, the stewardess comes up because I know she's coming because this bitch is sitting next to my kids and there's nothing fun about that. And she said, ma'am, she would like to trade seats with you now. And I said, oh, no, no, we need to stay in our assigned seats.
Starting point is 00:53:24 Have a good flight. Because you didn't move. I think she did eventually. I think she let the woman just simmer for a bit. She's like, I told you, I told you that I should swap seats with you. And you said, no, I don't want to swap seats with you. Don't want to swap seats. So sometimes there is an argument for, you know, swapping seats.
Starting point is 00:53:43 Absolutely. The mum should have definitely pre-booked her tickets because that's so dangerous not booking your seats when you've got kids that age. Well, I think you would just assume that the airline would do it for you. If you all check in together, you just assume that you would get sat together. Do you always have to, like, book your seat these days?
Starting point is 00:53:58 I don't know. I've never checked anybody in except for myself. It reminds me of that time when the babysitter or the nanny got booked in economy. Yes. And the mum and the dad and the two kids, they booked all of themselves into first class. That's right. And the mum comes back at a certain time and says, hey, can you come up and feed the kids and organise them and entertain them, essentially. And the air steward comes around and goes, sorry, miss, she's not allowed up in first
Starting point is 00:54:31 class. She's an economy. You booked her an economy. You should have booked her a first class ticket. So good. We have to talk about this Lizzo drama. It has only been one day, and it is really starting to heat up.
Starting point is 00:54:53 It's only been one week since she was here in the country. Literally, she was here. She was at Hobbiton. Yeah, this time last week. Yesterday, in the latest, we reported that she is being sued by three of her former dancers for, in their case, sexual harassment and creating a hostile working environment. That's what they state. Now, and that's fine.
Starting point is 00:55:12 That's going to go to court and she will have the chance to defend that. Now, Beyonce has dropped a Lizzo reference from one of her songs. In the remix of Break My Soul, Beyonce references a whole bunch of influential black women, including Lizzo. Take a listen. This is the song. You can hear it in there between Erykah Badu and Kelly Rowland. She says Lizzo Kelly rolls.
Starting point is 00:55:47 Now people have noticed that on the Renaissance tour that when she performed that song, she removed the Lizzo reference. Take a listen. Betty Smith, Nina Simone. Betty Davis, Solange Knowles. Bardu, Bardu, Bardu, Bardu. You know, the potato snack.
Starting point is 00:56:03 Tony, Jane, Tierra Whack. The bit where Lizzo's name is, and Kelly Rowland's name to be fair. Yeah, Kelly Rowland got taken out too. Yeah, she just says, Badu, Badu, Badu, Badu. That could be a coincidence. And there's also people that believe that Beyonce is having a feud with Erykah Badu at the moment. Yeah, that's going around as well at the moment, that information. So that's a possibility.
Starting point is 00:56:28 Or Beyonce believes what is being said about Lizzo and she has taken her out of the song altogether. Look, this is what I think. What I know of Beyonce is that's not really her style. I don't think Beyonce really does stuff like that. So I think it could be a coincidence or there could be something else going on. But like that story broke yesterday about Lizzo
Starting point is 00:56:54 and then Beyonce. So when did that happen? Last night. Claudia, is that from overnight, that concert footage? Yeah, I think it was overnight. It's very recent. It's after all the drama. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:57:04 So that's like pretty soon. It's very recent. It's after all the drama. Yeah. So that's like pretty, pretty soon. It's a strange time to be doing it if you're not making a point or aligning with somebody or something. That is what it is. There's one other weird thing that is happening at the moment too where people have found a lyric from a Lizzo song from last year. It's from that most recent Lizzo album, isn't it? But it's a song that's been out for ages, which
Starting point is 00:57:27 now has taken on a whole new meaning. You know the Lizzo song Rumours? Yes. Have a listen to this bit. Talking about the dancers that she fired. Yeah. They're the ones that are going after her. Yeah. The ones that are taking her to court are the ones that have been fired.
Starting point is 00:57:53 Yeah. Yes. Yeah, correct. Yeah. And then the line says, all the rumours are true. No. Well, do you know that song? Well, yeah, a little bit.
Starting point is 00:58:02 But the whole print, like, it's about something else. I know, but it's just unfortunate that now, in referencing that, but directly off the back of it, she says, all the rumours are true. But I think she is saying that she did fire them. Yeah, oh, I see what you're saying.
Starting point is 00:58:19 Like, she's saying, those rumours are true, I did do that. Yeah, yeah, fascinating. The whole thing. Well, it'll be interesting to see what unfolds i saw something on tiktok where because it's not just lizzo it's her production company and it's the the dance manager dance manager yeah and from what i've seen the dance manager has been accused of a lot of stuff really like it's like a lot of stuff and then like lizzo also but a lot of the stuff has to do, it's like a lot of stuff, and then like Lizzo also, but a lot of the stuff is to do with the dance manager.
Starting point is 00:58:48 This thing is a long way to go. Yeah. This is the second day of these rumours being out there, and there's a lot more to come, so it's going to be fascinating to watch how it all plays out. It will be to see how it unfolds. Brie and Clint,
