No. She went, no, I can't do it. The opposite. She went, no, it's too big. And she rejected him out of the fact that it was too big. Here's a question for you. If Brie ever was on that show, how many reveals do you think before you went,

Yeah, yeah. Bree and Clint Georgia's here as well Hi Georgia Hey guys Maddie I brought Georgia In here specifically Because you're here

Right You have a It's not really a side hustle But you have a A qualification You're a qualified Wedding celebrant Correct

Married celebrant Yeah Five years ago yesterday Isn't that crazy Five years ago yesterday Maddie Mar married me and my wife, Lucy. I did. Georgia, is it right that you are training to become a marriage celebrant? No, I've become one.

It's all accepted. It's gone through. You are a marriage celebrant. Thank you. Congratulations. Are you excited? I'm so excited. I just love love.

So I'm like, oh no, what is that giggle for? It's just that because you have to send in like an essay as to why you want to be a marriage celebrant and I swear every marriage celebrant starts with, I just love love. It's either that or I'm a radio host. We all do it. How many weddings have you done so far?

Nothing because I only got signed off like two weeks ago. Maddie's like, you love love now. Wait until you have to give up every weekend of your summer for the next five years. Wait until you are never just a guest at a wedding again. So case in point, three weddings back to back, wedding celebration for two of them, one I'm just a guest, which I was like, whoa, not even MC for this.

I'm proud. I fit like a guest thing. I was like, whoa, not even MC for this. I'm proud. Yeah. I fit like a guest thing. Georgia asked us a question yesterday. She said, is it appropriate for me to do this thing as a marriage celebrant? I just want to say, I don't think it is appropriate, this thing, but I'm not qualified to comment. Right.

But you are, and you're here, Maddie. So, Georgia, can you ask Maddie the question that you asked me yesterday? Okay, Maddie. Picture yourself. Okay, Maddie. So Georgia, can you ask Maddie the question that you asked me yesterday? Okay, Maddie, picture yourself. Okay, eyes closed. You're standing up there. The bride walks down, beautiful. Yes. She's a friend of yours.

Yes. Even more beautiful. Yeah. You're doing the story of their love. Yeah. And you start crying. What are your thoughts? I honestly think it's great.

I'm into it. I'm setting the scene for everyone. You know what I mean? Everyone's there going, now we're all going to cry. No. Yeah. That's what I said. I don't know.

Okay, I need training. Pull your head in, Georgia. I honestly don't think I can. Everyone else can cry. That is fine because they are sitting down in the audience. You are the one that needs to hold it together. Also, don't make it about you, Joyce. Yes, thank you, Maddie.

Okay, so I'm not allowed to kiss them at the end? No, but seriously. I've now pronounced you husband and wife. We can kiss the bride. Or they kiss and you're just like in the back of a shot pulling a peace sign. Or like... So what am I going to...

How do I train myself to not cry? Because having stood at the front of that aisle myself and watched my to-be wife walk up there, I was crying. Someone has to hold it together in that situation. Someone up the front there has to hold the situation together. Totally. And that's your job as a celebrity.

That's your job. Okay, so I know that you train this stuff being a journalist and whatnot. How am I supposed to do it now? You grit your teeth like this. And then I'm not going to be able to talk. I love love. Or I need to be pinched.

I reckon there needs to be like a little person behind me like pinching me. Do you think you can do it? Because I know that... I'm a sook? No, no, no, not you specifically. I know when I feel the need to. Like I cried at Maddie's wedding.

Yeah. And I wasn't even up there getting married. When you feel it, come on, you feel it, come on. Not everybody can control that emotion. Do you think you can control it? I'm a blubbering mess. Every wedding I've been to, I've cried. Oh, gosh.

I almost need to like know the story so well that I kind of hate their love story. You love love. But I almost need to learn to hate like I need to train my mind the opposite way. I don't want you to take this the wrong way Georgia but the question we're going to ask people this afternoon is

You didn't say we were doing it. How did you realise that you weren't cut out for your job? Okay. What did you realise that you weren't cut out for your job? Okay. What made you realise that this job was just not for you? This job is for me. You don't know that because you haven't done any weddings yet. Oh, you need to be a guest at the weddings I go to.

Georgia, loving love is just not enough. It's not going to cut it. You need to treat love like a business. The people that I want to talk to tonight, this afternoon, sorry, are people like wedding celebrants who cry too much, but also maybe you studied to become a nurse and as soon as you started in a hospital,

you realised you can't stand the sight of blood. Oh, yeah. That sort of thing. But you want to help people. But you want to help people. But you want to help people. Yeah, your heart's in the right place. It's like your heart's in the right place, but you're just not cut out for it.

And there's nothing wrong with that, Georgia. It's okay. Okay, I feel like, okay, what about, I feel like if I don't know the people, I won't cry. I might just shed a tear, but they won't be like. Yeah, yeah, you could just do it for strangers. Yeah, yeah. I want to talk to massage therapists

who don't like human contact. Or hairy bodies. Or hairy bodies. Yeah, yeah. I want to talk to massage therapists who don't like human contact. Or hairy bodies. Or hairy bodies. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I want to talk to dentists who have like a fear of other people's saliva. What was the thing that you started at a job and you were like,

oh my God, I am the worst person for this situation. You go to KFC, work at KFC and you're like, wait, I'm a vegan. I'm vegan. Oh, I'm a vegan. I'm vegan. Oh, I had your dials at him or you can text

to 9696. Maybe you were able to overcome it and maybe you can help Georgia with this. You know, maybe you've got some advice for her or maybe you just quit. We want to know the job that you realised you just weren't cut out for. Georgia is a newly minted marriage celebrant and has

just asked Maddie, a professional marriage celebrant of many years, is it okay to cry as you're marrying the couple? Is it okay for you to cry?

You weren't talking about like a single cute little tear rolling down the cheek. I was talking like. You were talking

about full blubbering mess. Full. Waterworks. I think I'm giving you a second. full blubbering mess. Full... Waterworks. I think I'm giving you a second, that kind of like... Taking a second out. Taking a second. We said no,

we said no, that it's not okay. But I'm so invested in their relationship. Is that not super sweet? No. So unprofessional, babes. So we've asked the question, when did you realise that you weren't cut out for your job?

And man, we're getting some good messages about this. We've had a message from a flight attendant who hates flying. Oh, yuck. Fear. Someone said, I'm a nurse and I can't stand poo. This one is my favourite though. I'm still a nurse, but I often tag out when there's a code brown. Someone messaged in and said, I was in the Navy, but I got really bad seasickness.

It lasted a couple of years, but I vomited every time I was deployed to sea. How did you not know you were seasick before you joined the Navy? I'm a nurse, but I'm an introvert, and I hate talking to people. Oh, you see, that would be pretty hard. You have to also deal with them in their lowest. Yeah, yeah.

It's all about being a nurse. It's all about talking to people and getting them through their moments. Sophie's here. Hi, Soph. Hi. You're a flight attendant. You're okay with the flying bit, right? Yeah, yeah.

I'm fine with flying. So what is it that you don't like that makes you not cut out for the job? Well, this was a few years ago. I'm obviously not a flight attendant anymore. I had a fear of public speaking and I thought, you know, why not become a flight attendant? It might help.

Right, so you became a flight attendant to overcome your fear of public speaking. Yeah, yeah, that didn't work. Yeah, those PA announcements, they're a big deal. When you say it didn't work. Yeah, those PA announcements, they're a big deal. When you say it didn't work, what do you mean? Well, I was okay for the first few flights, and randomly one day I had like a panic attack during the PA,

and it was one of those small planes, so everyone was looking at me, and I was the only one on board. Oh, no, they all would have thought something was wrong with the plane. You would have scared everybody on the plane. Yeah, it's not ideal when your flight attendant's having a panic attack mid-flight. What do you do now? Did you leave the industry? Yeah, I did. What do you do now? I'm a sales rep, actually.

So just one-on-one speaking. Yeah, one-on-one. One-on-one's fine. Not in front of a plane of people staring at me. Good on you for realising it, Soph, I guess. Yeah. We're not all good at everything. No. Well. Mary's like, speak for yourself.

This person wants to be anonymous. Hi, Anonymous. Hello. When did you realise that you weren't cut out for your job? I studied for early childhood teaching for three years and then realised I couldn't stand to be around kids. Yeah, that's a key part of for early childhood teaching for three years and then realised I couldn't stand to be around kids. Yeah, that's a key part of the early childhood sector. Yeah, you kind of need to like them.

Did you get over it? Because we're trying to help Georgia through this. We're trying to say that she can become the marriage celebrant that she wants to be. Did you get over it? No, I never got over it. Oh, great. No, he didn't even end up into the industry.

I just took the certificate and worked elsewhere. Were you willing to try and get over it? No, not at all. I'm willing to, guys. This is the difference. I'm willing. So the early childhood teacher who doesn't like people in early childhood, what do you do for a job now?

Now I work in aged care. Oh, you went the other way. Oh, the other way. Yeah, much the same, but less little voices. There's still nappies involved. Okay, thank you, Anonymous. Someone said, I worked in a vape shop when I was pregnant. I don't vape and the smell makes me sick.

I don't know if it's recommended that pregnant women enter a vape shop, to be honest. And then some of them are so simple. Like, I'm a receptionist and I hate people. Yeah. Yeah. My mum trained as a beauty therapist and couldn't do waxing or touch people that she didn't know to do facials. She now works in customer service behind a counter where she doesn't have to touch the customers.

So you just find the thing that you're good at and maybe you're just good as a guest, Georgia. No, but that sometimes can be marginal towards the end of the night. One time the groom carried me out. Oh. Not in that way, but just a few, there was a few too many lemonades. Right. And the groom had to carry me to the car. Oh, okay.

Where did your minds go? Well, I don't know. It just sounds like weddings might not be your thing, but you do you, babes. And the groom had to carry me to the car. Oh, okay. Where did your minds go? Well, I don't know. It just sounds like weddings might not be your thing, but you do you, babes. It's time for the latest. From iHeartRadio, this is the latest live from LA with Dean McCarthy. Huge news for the millennials. Huge.

Alicia Silverstone has announced she's reprising her character from Clueless, Dean. Yeah, she asked for an ad. Sylvestone has announced she's reprising her character from Clueless, Dean. She asked for an ad. She is doing a Super Bowl commercial. It's so cool, right? So let me just set the scene for you. If you're a Clueless fan, she walks in, she's dressed as her character Cher. She's in that

same yellow and black tartan outfit. Super cool. She walks into the classroom, she's got these big shopping bags, and she's like, don't worry, I'm back, guys. And she's basically talking about how Rakuten, which is this app that you can download, it gets you, there's all these different brands that are involved with it.

And every time you shop, you get a kickback, you know what I mean, like a good discount. So she's bragging about how she keeps shopping around Beverly Hills like she does. Because, you know, it's hard to drive in platforms. Very hard to drive in platforms around Beverly Hills. But it's great and easy to shop with Rakuten. So that's the girl.

Love her. She looks great too. So good. It's like she hasn't changed at all. I did get very excited. I thought, is this a sequel? Are we about to get a reprise? Do you think this could spark something, Dean?

I'll tell you why I know. I'll tell you why. So do you remember her best friend in the movie? I've gone blank on her name. Like the best friend. She then went on to become like, yeah, she went on to become like a full on like

very, I'll just say a very controversial reporter in America with some wild ideas. I don't think it's going to happen. I'm sorry everyone. I'm so sorry. It's not happening. There's no part to it. I don't think it's going to happen. I'm sorry, everyone. I'm so sorry. It's not happening. There's no but.

I've got the wrong person. Ty was played by Brittany Murphy, who has passed away. You're talking about Stacey Dash. Yes. Oh, yes. The cast was crazy. The movie had Paul Rudd in it. It had the guy from Scrubs in it as well.

Yeah. Yeah, I don't think the reboot's going to happen. But people will be excited to see her as that character. Totally. Right? Hell yeah. Lovely. It's so cool.

Love that. I'd never even heard about the app and I've already downloaded it. I'm into it. Got one new customer. Look, line and sinker, Dean. Look, line and sinker. Clueless came out in 1995, by the way, if you want to feel really old. It's almost 30 years old.

Bree and Clint. Let's talk about these new Netflix rules. You got Netflix? You got Netflix. I've got Netflix and this does, it doesn't impact me, but we do share a password. Do you pay for your Netflix? I pay for mine. Yeah.

Someone else uses ours and doesn't pay for it. Who's on your account? Ryan's sister. And where is she? She's in Nelson. She's stuffed. She's screwed. My sister lives in Rotorua and she is on our account. She's stuffed. And where is she? She's in Nelson. She's stuffed. She's screwed. My sister lives in Rotorua

and she is on our account. She's stuffed. Yeah. So Netflix have been saying for about six months they want to stop you from sharing your password with people who don't pay.

Who don't pay for their own accounts. And truly, I thought this was all talk. I thought this was like, you know when mum and dad say, if I count to three, you know, when mum and dad say, if I count to three, you'll be in trouble. Or once you turn 18, you have to start paying rent.

Exactly. Okay, mum and dad. We'll believe it when we see it. But believe it or not, they've gone and done it. This could be the dumbest announcement in the history of Netflix, but they've introduced anti-password sharing rules, and this is how it works. Every 31 days, the device that you watch

Netflix on must log into your home Wi-Fi network, and if it doesn't, your Netflix account will be blocked. Shocking. This is wild. For a few reasons, right? One, I mean, I just never thought that they'd actually go this far.

Two, that means that even for me, who does pay for my own Netflix, but uses it on my phone, on my iPad, on my laptop, every month I'm going to have to watch something on all of those devices. You have to go around all those devices and watch something. At least log in. Also, let's

not forget about people who are 18, 19 years old who are off to uni. But really, you want to be thought of as a kid, but you're still under your parents' guidance. You're under your parents'. You're using their Netflix account. Yeah. So you're stuffed because what are you going to do?

Fly back from Otago every 30 days just so you can get on mum and dad's Wi-Fi and re-log your Netflix in? No, you're not. No. No, you're not. And as a tech-savvy

Gen Z, what you're really going to do is find your entertainment elsewhere. Although it is a great opportunity for young uni students to bribe their parents because,

you know, mums and dads desperately miss your kids. So you say, all right, I'll come visit you once a month. I want to see you. If you pay for my flights home. Just so I can log my devices in.

Students are not going to do it. It is going to log you out of your ex's account. Which a lot of people will be thankful for. Yeah, if you're the one paying for the account it'll mean that your ex can't mooch off you anymore. You might not have even thought about it. But I find it weird.

This might be shots fired, but it's a weird thing to do when Netflix... Let's look three years ago. Netflix was the only streaming service to have. That was it. That is not the case now. There are so many good shows on so many different streaming services.

Some of them are free, like TVNZ+. They don't have the market cornered anymore and you're going to make it hard for people to watch the stuff that you've got? Dumb. And so a lot of people will go, oh well, if I can't use my parents or exes or brothers or whatever's

account, then I just won't use Netflix. I'll just use one of, as you say, one of the many other streaming services that I can use. What if you're travelling? What if you're doing your OE and you're doing like a year of travelling around the world and you pay for your own account but you don't have access to your

Wi-Fi? You don't have a home Wi-Fi account. You just can't have Netflix. You just can't have Netflix on your phone as you ride trains through Europe. What are we going to do? What are we going to do? Such a first world problem to be honest, but dumb! It's dumb. I mean, what are we going to do? Yeah, this is such a first world problem, to be honest. But dumb! It's dumb.

I think it's dumb. I'm going on the record. It's dumb. Yeah, it's dumb. It's dumb. There's a lot of attention on Whittaker's, the chocolate company at the moment. This Ed Sheeran being in the country thing is a boom for them.

Huge. He has posted on his Instagram story today specifically asking for some Whittaker's chocolate, because they put out that block. Did you see it? The Ed Sheeran block? I did, and I got very excited because I thought, oh, I might like to try that. I don't mind kind of orangey chocolates. I'm assuming that's the

kind of flavour they were going for. They did not have permission. They did not have the licence to release an Ed Sheeran chocolate. Right. But Ed Sheeran has said this. Whittaker's New Zealand chocolate. You've made a bar of chocolate with said this. Whittaker's New Zealand chocolate. You've made a bar of chocolate with my face on it. I've just seen the memes. I'm in Wellington for one more day.

Please get me a bar. And all is forgiven. He's into it. That's great, Mark. For the price of one block of chocolate, you can release an Ed Sheeran line of chocolate? And the marketing department just must be rubbing their hands together. Oh, yeah. We've got our bonus this year.

It's not all good news for the Whittaker's Chocolate Company, who we love, by the way. We love Whittaker's. An American website called Tasting Table has ranked Whittaker's as one of the worst blocks of chocolate you can buy. What? They've ranked all the chocolates in America and they have ranked Whittaker's 19 out of 20

on a best to worst list. Okay. American chocolate is trash. I'm saying, I'm calling it right here. American chocolate's garbage. Garbage. A lot of their processed food is garbage. A lot of it is top tier as well.

But chocolate, I don't think they get it. I don't think they get it. And I think that's the problem. Their palates have become so refined to the worst of the worst, the lowest common denominator, that they can't taste good. They have criticised Whittakers for using beans sourced from Ghana, which take 80 days to get from Ghana to Porirua. Yeah, okay.

You find that's a faster way to get beans. Exactly. We're far away from Ghana. We're far away from everything. The main thing they've criticised them on is price. Because it's an imported chocolate in America, I think it's about $14 a block for Whittaker's over there. So they're like, eh, too expensive.

19 out of 20. Let's have there. So they're like, eh, too expensive. 19 out of 20. Let's have a look at their top six, though, because I think this says a lot about American taste. And the list? Yeah. Yeah, I think so. So number six on their list in America, according to this list on Tasting Table,

Toblerone is the sixth best chocolate you can get if you're in an airport. Yeah. And you've got to buy a present for the kids. That's what Toblerone is for, right? I really like Toblerone, but I think it's novelty chocolate. Totally. But it is.

I've been away on holiday. I forgot to get a present for the family. I'm going to buy something at Judy Free. This will do. Number five is Godvia. Never heard of it? No. Godiva.

Godiva. Godiva. No. Never heard of it number four is um you nailed it number four never heard of it never heard of it number three tershies again Number three is Hershey's. Again, it kind of tastes like... Fake chocolate. Yeah. To me, it does.

It's decidedly average chocolate. I eat it when I'm in America because it's like an American thing to do, to have a cake of Hershey's chocolate. I'm not going to turn it down. If someone gives me a Hershey's kiss, fine. Fine. But I'm not going out to the shop to buy a packet of Hershey's.

I hate this word, but I'm going to use it. I don't find Hershey's chocolate Moorish. I don't. I don't. It's just, it is. Number two is La Maison du Chocolat. Oh, where are they getting these from? Don't know.

And number one, the greatest chocolate that you can eat in America, according to Tasting Table, lint. Yeah, I do like a lint ball. Yeah, I love a lint ball. I love Table, lint. Yeah, I do like a lint ball. Yeah, I love a lint ball. I love a lint ball. I like the block with the chilli in it. But it's not... Have you tried the hazella?

Have you tried the almond block? Have you tried... Pokey Whitakers. Oh my god, have you tried the coconut block? Oh my god. I just don't get it. Anyway, it's a hate crime and America is cancelled. We're moving on. Time for Friday-oke. And now it's time for Bree and Clint's most popular segment.

Friday-oke! I love Friday-oke. It's the best. I listen every Friday. I never miss Friday Oki Thanks Brian Clint You've made my Friday again Friday Oki I love a matty week on Friday Oki Because I'm so competitive

I panic Yeah And I go into that booth And I lose my damn mind You take it really seriously Really seriously. So you should. It's a very serious thing. If you have never heard it before, Brie and I

usually will spend 15 minutes with an audio engineer who makes us sound as good as we can singing a particular song. Bless him. This week Maddie will do it instead of Brie because she's away. And I thought, it's got to be topical. It's got to be relevant. What's everyone talking about at the moment? Weather.

So we should do this song. For no other reason than the weather. Just for the weather. Just the weather, just the rain. There's the only topical tie-in. Yeah, I mean, we're getting wet, right? Who's got the better It's Raining Men in them? What you're going to do is you're going to hear mine

and then you're going to hear Maddie's. Once you've heard them both, we're looking for five people to call through on 0800DIALZM and tell us who wins Friday Oki this week. I love it. Because I chose the song, I'll go first. Okay, I'll put myself out there first. And straight after me, it's Maddie.

I haven't heard this yet. Have you got it this week, do you reckon? I think it might be okay. According to all sources, the street's the place to go. And tonight for the first time, it's just about happened. For the first time in history, it's gonna start raining men. It's raining men. Hallelujah, it's raining men Amen

I'm gonna go out I'm gonna let myself get Absolutely soaking wet It's raining men Hallelujah, it's raining men Every special man Tall, blonde, dark and lean Hallelujah, it's raining men Every space I'm in Tall, blonde, dark and lean Rough and tough and strong and mean

It was like you were thinking, because I'm singing about raining men, I've got to put on my manliest masculine voice. I've got to compensate. Just so people know I'm fully straight, bro. I love the chicks, man. I love the chicks. This is just theatre, man.

Anyway, that's My Weather Girl. Great. Anything we need to know about your weather girls before we go into this? I just went for it this week. I embraced my inner weather girl. Yes. And I went full noise. Well, then let's do it.

Here comes Maddie's It's Raining Men. After this, we need five people to pick the winner of Friday Okie. Good luck, Maddie. Humidity's rising. Oh, rising. Barometer's getting low. Hello, girl. According to all sources.

What sources now? The streets, the place to go. Oh, yeah. Because tonight for the first time. First time. Just about half past ten. Half past ten. For the first time, just about half past ten. For the first time in history, it's gonna start raining men. It's raining men.

Hallelujah, it's raining men. Amen. I'm gonna go out. I'm gonna let myself get absolutely soaking wet. It's raining men. Hallelujah. It's raining men. Every specimen.

Tall, blonde, dark and lean. Rough and tough and strong and mean. Brilliant. There's quite a few key changes in there. Yeah. It's hard. Oh yeah, the weather girls knew what they were doing. It's very musical theatre, eh?

Very. Very musical theatre. I loved it. If you think you know who did the better version this week for Friday Okie, we're looking for five people to call 0800DIALZM right now and cast their vote. And if you've got some good constructive feedback for us... Please take it on board. You could win yourself 50 KFC chicken dollars this afternoon too just for sharing that feedback.

So the phone lines are open. Straight after this Wilkinson song, we're going to know who... is thener of Friday Okay I think we were pretty good I think we were great I think we were pretty good Someone said unfair

Matty's obviously sung this song before Never Mine sounded like this It's raining men Hallelujah It's raining men Amen Yeah it's raining men mate Yeah mate it's raining Bloody raining men. Hallelujah, it's raining men. Amen.

Yeah, it's raining men, mate. Yeah, mate, it's raining. Bloody raining men. It's raining blokes. Matty's sounding like this. It's raining men. Hallelujah, it's raining men. Amen.

Someone said, declare a state of emergency, Wayne Brown. The men are falling. We've got five people on the phone ready to decide the winner of Friday Oaky. We're going to go to Ingrid first. Cue to Ingrid. Hi, guys. Hi, Ingrid. Happy Friday. What did you think?

I was hooked, Maddie absolutely slayed that. Yes! Thanks Lana. Right, so no birthday present and now you're voting for Maddie in Friday Oaky. Is that how it is Lana? Yeah. Just getting them back for all of those times in childhood, right? I'll remember that at Christmas.

Let's go to Charlotte. Hi, Charlotte. Hi, how's it going? We're going good. You could either give this to Matt or you could take us to tie break. What do you reckon for Friday Oaky this week? I am going to vote for Clint. Hey!

Because he's got more pizzazz and drama. What was it? What was it about Clint? Oh, it just was like the musical theatre. It was dramatic. I did achieve level seven in speech and drama

at high school, so yeah. So I appreciate that. Thank you, Charlotte, and you've taken us to Deadlock. That means Nicky's got all the power. Hi, Nicky. Hi, Nicky.

Hey, how's it going? Good. Nicky, you've been my favourite caller this week. I'm really sorry, Clint. And I just want to say, Nikki, that I have loved you since the day I met you. I've never felt the same way I feel about you. And that includes my wife.

Ouch. I'm really sorry, Clint, but it's Maddie Hans. No! Ouch. I'm really sorry, Clint, but it's Matty Hands. Yay! What was it, Nikki? What about Matt's was so much better than mine? More that it didn't hurt my ears quite as much as Clint's. But the tone was there, not so pitchy. And definitely those soft backups, they were lovely.

It was my commitment to the idea of it raining men in the first place. That's the one. I thought Maddie really worked up. It was like, first a gay all-black, now this? What a week. Have a great weekend, Nikki. Thanks for playing. Thank you.

Time for a birthday banger. So we find out the number one song on your 16th birthday and we play the best one out in full. Do you remember what your birthday banger is?

Yeah, it was Avril Lavigne Complicated. That's right, even I remembered that was your birthday b. Do you remember what your birthday banger is? Yeah, it was Avril Lavigne Complicated. That's right, even I remember that. It was a good birthday banger. Do you remember my birthday banger? No, I don't. What is it? I'll remember it as soon as you say it. Jenny from the Block. Also a great one.

Let's do one for Sharon. Kia ora Sharon, happy Friday. Hello, happy Friday guys. Oh, I love your energy. Where are you calling us from, Sharon. Happy Friday. Hello. Happy Friday, guys. Oh, I love your energy. Where are you calling us from, Sharon? Tamaki Makaurau. Yep. Fantastic.

Love that. Yeah, love that for us. Love some rain for us. Love it. Love it. Okay, let's make things good. Let's do your birthday banger. What's your birthday?

Oh, my gosh. I'm ridiculously excited to find out. Okay. I feel like I'm forgetting my birthday. It's the 6th of December 1994. Alright, Sharon. You were 16 on the 6th of December 2010 and this

was the number one hit. Yes! Yes! Yes! She performs the Super Bowl halftime show next weekend. So good. And then she's back.

Surely she's back. Yeah. For good. Riri and Only Girl. Are you excited about that? I can tell you're excited about it. Oh, yes. I'm very excited.

That would just make the Friday so much better. I love you, Sharon. Banger. You've set the template. You've set the bar very high. Let's go to Natalie. Hi, Natalie. Kia ora, you've set the template. You've set the bar very high. Let's go to Natalie. Hi, Natalie. Yada, guys.

Yada. Great. Hi, Natalie. Where are you calling us from, Nat? I'm all the way down in Hamilton. All the way down in Hamilton. So far away. So far away, Natalie.

I didn't know they had cell phone coverage all the way down in Hamilton. Hey, big weekend plans, Natalie? Yes, I'm actually heading away on a shopping spree, so I'm rather excited. Awesome. Well, let's see if we can kickstart it with a real bang. Let's find out what your birthday banger is. When's your birthday, Natalie?

21st of September 96. Nice. Natalie, you were 16 on the 21st of September 2012 and this was topping the chart. Taylor Swift. Oh, what's up? Are you a Swifty? Really, but I'll go with it.

It's a good Taylor Swift song though. Did you say not really, but I'll go with it. Okay, thank you for your honesty. Wait there, Natalie. We're going to do one for with it. Okay, think of your honesty. Wait there, Natalie. We're going to do one for Louis. Kia ora, Louis. Kia ora.

So my birthday is on the 15th of December, 1973. Okay, straight down to business. Let's do it. All right, Louis, you were 16 on the 15th of December, 1989, and this was your number one song. Whoa. Louis, do you love a bit of Cher? Yeah.

You there, Louis? Yes, I am. How do you feel about Cher being your birthday banger? She's quite a, she can still probably sing a bit. Yeah, she's still got it, man. Yeah, she's still got it. That's the criteria for Louis. They have to still be touring for him to like it.

Okay, wait there. We're going to pick the winner of this. Three absolute divas. Riri, Taylor Swift, Cher, and bangers. And bangers. Huge energy from Cher for her birthday banger that factors into it for me truly the world has Rihanna fever

at the moment I feel like you're going to vote against me and it's going to go to split vote so I'm just going to go with it and say I'm voting for Rihanna only girl in the world okay

I do love Sharon's energy but as a gay man it would be impossible for me not to vote for Cher. Okay. Got it.

So I'm voting for Cher. So we're going to a split vote and we're going to give the split vote to our producers. Today we'll give the vote to Claudia. Claudia, what's the winner of Birthday Banger? Listen, I love that Cher song. I love it. But purely because of the energy that Sharon was bringing forward, I'm also going with Rihanna.

I did not see this happening. I did not see this happening. Maddie is furious. Sorry, Maddie. Love you. It's fine. Sharon's not, though. Sharon, you just won birthday banger.

We did it! We did it! We did it! Yeah! I'm not very good with technology, but I've been learning about this thing called ChatGPT. Have you heard of this? Yeah, the AI robot that can do anything you ask it to. Yeah. So it's kind of like, you know, if you put something into Google,

if you ask Google a question, it spits out a whole heap of results, of pages for you to find that information. Yeah. Well, ChatGPT is kind of like that, except rather than sending you the results for you to go and search for it yourself, it literally types out the answer for you. I heard the way I read it, indexes the entire internet and writes the answer to your question exactly. And according to all the information on the internet.

And here's the difference, because there's been things like this for a while, but usually they have to really study something for a long time and you still get pretty questionable results. This is so human-like, the responses that it gives. And this is an early version of it too. Whatever you're getting out of it now is only going to get better.

I saw that lecturers are really terrified because if you get assigned a 500-word essay on Shakespeare's Merchant of Venice, you just type into GPT, that's what I want and it will do it. And then you can go add in some comments about the main

protagonist and it will rewrite it just to include some sentences about that. It's incredible. So do you know what the company's had to do now? They have had to create a new software tool that can spot if something has used chat GPT technology. Ah, suck. I thought we were all going to be able to cheat

our exams this year. Ripped off. You had a great idea today. You said it can write poetry and songs and everything like that, but can it write a script for a wacky Top 40 radio show? I said, can we get some banter out of this? Because maybe it's better than what you and I actually have to offer.

Maybe we should be putting our show into this. Exactly. So we haven't seen this yet. We've asked Claudia, our producer, to put it into ChatGPT. What have you asked it for, Claude?

So I've asked it to write some banter for you guys. So banter for two millennial male radio hosts who work on a top 40 station speaking to a Gen Z audience in New Zealand.

Perfect. So it's quite specific. Perfect. That's what we do all day, every day. Am I host one? You're host one. Okay. This is our show if it was created by a robot.

Okay, robot, shut up. Yo, what's up? It's your boy, host one. Oh, Clint Roberts. Coming at you live from the Top 40 station in New Zealand. And I'm Matty McLean, your other favourite millennial radio host. How's everyone doing today? I heard it's a little chilly out there today.

But we're here to heat things up with the hottest tracks on the airwaves. Speaking of heating things up, have you guys seen the latest TikTok trend? Yeah, the renegade dance, right? That's all my cousins are talking about. Same here, man. And you know what they say, if it's popular on TikTok, it's probably going to end up on the charts.

Speaking of the charts, we've just got some bangers coming up, including the latest from Ariana Grande, The Weeknd and Justin Bieber. But let's not forget our Kiwi artists. We've got a big shout out to Lorde and her latest hit, Solar Power. That's right. We're all about supporting our local talent.

So make sure to keep it locked onto this station for the latest and greatest from around the world. And if you're not feeling the music, just turn off the radio and go for a walk in the park. No, no, no, no, no, no. Chat GBD, no. What's it doing? It's literally meant to be helping us, not telling people to turn us off.

Up until that point, I think it was kind of indistinguishable from us. But the Renegade is so old. Also Lord of the Laters hits Solar Power. It was like three years ago. We've got another version here. What have you asked? You've tried to get it to nuance the conversation a bit.

Yeah, so I've made it even more specific. So it's the same prompt as the beginning, but then I also added that Clint loves to talk about himself. Maddie's filling in for Bree,

who's away for two weeks. And there's also two producers, Claude and Ella, who do all the work and get none of the credit. And also we love Ed Sheeran. Okay.

All right, chat GPT, show us what you got. Yo, yo, yo. What's up, New Zealand? This is your boy, Clint, bringing you the hottest hits of the week. And I'm Matty, filling in for Bree for the next two weeks. Ha, ha, ha. Yeah. And let's just say Bree's shoes are pretty big to fill.

But don't worry, I've got this. I'm ready to take on the world one song at a time. And let's not forget about our behind-the-scenes heroes, Claude and Ella. Yeah, they're the real MVPs. They make sure everything runs smoothly while Clint and I get all the glory. Ha ha ha ha.

Hey, someone's got to be the face of the show, right? Oh, yeah. But seriously, a big shout out to Claude and Ella for all their hard work. Now let's get back to the music. I know we're all big fans of Ed Sheeran. Absolutely. That man is a musical genius.

We'll be playing some of his best tracks throughout the show. So sit back, relax, and let's jam out to the hottest hits of the week together. Let's do it. Nothing wrong with that one. That one was great. So good, right?

I don't want to scare anybody, but I think ChatGPT might be coming for our jobs. I don't think that was too far away from what we do. This was a bad idea. Brian Clint. I was saying earlier, it's really hard to get by in life at the moment, to know the right and wrong things to do. Should I do this?

Should I not do this? Am I being polite here? Have I made a mistake by saying this? I really feel for well-meaning boomers because even if you want to hit the right notes, the world has changed. Exactly. Drastically.

And you've got to keep up. Even as elder millennials, Matt and I are struggling to keep up with all of the changes, you know? Like, that's why we have a Gen Z producer. Exactly. Just to keep us in check with this thing. By the way, how are we doing today? Are we cancelled today?

Is there anything that's happened that we're cancelled for? No, you're just annoying me, so you're cancelled for that. All right. Good to know. What's the latest trend? Have I missed something? Yeah. Hmm.

Oh, skinny jeans are coming back, but ignore that. Yes! Don't let it happen. Yes, this makes me so happy. Is it time to be real yet? I've quit that as well. Okay, thank you, Gen Z producer. So what's on this list from New York Magazine?

Yeah, New York Magazine's compiled 140 rules for existing in society today. 140! So I've compiled some of the best ones that hopefully might give you some sort of advice on how to get through. Okay. Tip number one.

Hop gossip goes only in the voice memo, never in text. So they can't screenshot you. Can't screenshot you. Wow. It's in the voice memo. But I would argue, isn't it worse? Because then they've got a recording of you saying that thing.

Also true. With your voice on it. Whereas I can, surely I can still pretend that that screenshot was doctored. I was hacked. It was doctored. Like Len Brown. Not Len Brown.

What's the current mayor? Wayne Brown. Len Brown. And Len Brown. Tip number two, if you ghost someone, stay gone forever. Oh, don't slide back in the DMs when you're down on your luck and looking to tap dead. Don't do that.

Don't do that. Don't do that. Stay ghosted. I did have that happen to me a few times, actually. What, they ghosted you and then they hit you up again? Yeah, a couple of times. And? I mean, I'm so desperate.

Luckily, I'm a married man now, but I was desperate. Okay, good tip. You may callously cancel almost any plans up until 2pm. Oh! So after 2pm, there's no pulling out.

There's no pulling out. Right. But up until 2pm, free reign. Yeah. I would like this to be the year where people are honest about cancelling their plans. Right. Yeah. But up until 2pm, free reign. Yeah. I would like this to be the year where people are honest about cancelling their plans. Like some long-winded excuse about your car being car troubles or grandma or something like that. Just tell me you're not feeling like coming. Just say, I can't be bothered. I can't be bothered. I'm sorry.

Love you. Want to see you. I cannot be bothered. Because nine times out of ten, the other person is going to go, thank God. Me too. Okay, good. Number three, that's good. If you're in the office, this is tip number four, if you're in the office, you're wearing shoes.

Yeah. That one needs to go out to our boss, Ross Boss. Does he walk around in bare feet? Slides. He'll wear a slide into the office. And he's the boss. He's the boss. So then that trickles down. Yeah. He'll wear a slide into the office. And he's the boss. He's the boss. So then that trickles down.

Yeah. Pants. Do we have to wear pants in the workplace? No, no. Not according to the rules. Yeah. Okay. But short.

By that I mean shorts. You can wear shorts. Not no pants whatsoever. Oh, right. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I thought you were having a walk around like Daffy Duck. Yeah. Just a t-shirt with my bum out.

No, good. Duck. Yeah. Just a t-shirt with my bum out. No, good. Okay, yeah. No deciding your order at the counter. When you roll up, speak up. Yeah, you should be processing that while you're waiting. That also goes for people at the airport when they go through security. Have your passport ready.

Have it ready. Have your laptop ready to go. Yeah. Don't fluff around once you get up there. Just listen. Someone's just ridden all their pet peeves and then they happen to be able to submit it to the New York magazine

and they're like, make this a real thing. They're going to get what they want. They're doing a good service, but this is just things that piss a lot of people off, isn't it? And then this one just made me laugh. This is rule number six.

This is the final one that I'm going to share with you today. rule number six of the this is the final one okay that i'm gonna share with you today rule number six white people should always clearly pronounce the name 50 cent how have you been saying it up until now how you've been saying that well now i feel like i can't say it the way that i've been saying it. I don't want to get cancelled. Day one. There you go. It's a tough world out there.
