The ZM Podcast Network. Brianne Clint filling in for Fletchford and Ailey. Hey morning everybody, welcome to the Brianne Clint show in the morning. Oh this is a bit of a vibe this music isn't it? Isn't it? It's relaxing, feel like you're on an elevator. Did you come up with this Claudia? This is a Claudia Sykes original.

It's not but I'll claim it. I like it. Can you play any instruments? Not well. No, neither. Yeah, neither. We're not a very musically talented show. Producer Ella's probably the most musically talented. She can guitar and piano. And sing. I can recorder. I'm pretty good on the recorder.

Are you? Yeah. Should we get the family band back together? Three blind mice. Three blind mice. See how they run. Yeah. Should we get the family band back together? Three blind mice. Three blind mice. See how they run. Yeah, that was really good. See how they run. I can play that one on the recorder.

Jeez, that was hard to listen to at this time of the morning. You should hear it on the frickin' recorder. This music reminds me of, you know when you go get a massage? Yeah. Which I haven't. No, this is too vibey for a massage. Yeah. Which I haven't. No, this is too vibey for a massage. The music when they play at a massage

just makes it even more awkward. That's why I just, everything about a massage, I wish I loved them. It puts me to sleep. Does it? The music puts me to sleep.

All I can think about. I've never stayed awake through a massage. All I can think about when I'm getting a massage is someone else is touching you, someone else is touching you, a stranger's touching you.

Can you imagine how awkward it is for the masseuse to be just rubbing some sleeping man? Yeah, but we don't know. I'm in there. I've got my clothes off. I'm bloody fast asleep. Do you take all your clothes off? Down to my undies. Oh, I was going to say, leave your undies on.

Yeah. You don't have to, though. Do you not? I don't know. I don't think. I do, but. You don't have to, though. Do you not? I don't know. I don't think. I do, but. I wouldn't want to. I've got that little electric thing.

Anyway, I'm snoring. They're pounding away on my back. I'm fast asleep. They don't know you're asleep, though. Who's enjoying this? Who's enjoying this? Me, obviously, because I'm asleep. They don't know that you're asleep.

No, you're face down. They don't know. Yeah, right. Yeah. All right, let's get into it, shall we? We, you're face down. They don't know. Yeah, right. Yeah. All right, let's get into it, shall we? We're going to look after the breakfast show for the next couple of weeks while Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley are having a holiday.

And the first thing that we're going to talk about is this Taylor Swift ticket disaster that has gone down. God, the world in this part of the world has been obsessed with buying Taylor Swift tickets for the last week. I hope it all calms down. I read an article where they were talking about how many extra flights New Zealanders are booking.

Yeah. And it's just gone berserk. Has anyone checked Trade Me yet to see if anyone's got their Taylor Swift tickets on sale on Trade Me? Well, they couldn't yet because they don't have the... Or would they have? Is that how they prevent it? They don't send you your tickets?

Yeah, maybe not. Right. Well, this lady has spent a lot of money on Taylor Swift tickets. Accidentally. It'll make you feel good if you missed out or if you've really broken the bank and gone into debt over the Taylor Swift heiress tour. It's time for Tradie vs. Lady.

It's Tradie vs. Lady It's Tradie vs Lady. Three, two, one. Let's go. All right, a bit of Tradie vs Lady in the morning. We kick off our show every day with this, but it's a chance for you to go head-to-head testing your knowledge with someone else. Let's welcome our lady to the show first.

She's calling in from Auckland. She's 30 years old and she broke her jaw back in 2009. Welcome to the show, Rebecca. G'day, Bec. How did you manage that, mate? I got punched in the face while playing Aussie Rules. Oh! Accidental punch in the face?

Accidental. One of my best friends. Those dirty Australian rules, you know? Did you have to have your jaw wired shut? Yeah, wired shut and then another reconstruction surgery after that. Oh, my God. And have you had any problems with it since or it's been pretty good? Not too bad.

It just gets really cold with the Michelin. Oh, you've got a bit of metal in there. Nice. Okay. Fourth thing, Rebecca. You're taking on our tradie today. They're calling from Hawke's Bay. They're 20 years old and they are good mates with Sausage Boy.

Oh, not Sausage Boy again. Yes, Sausage Boy is back. Welcome to the show, Sam. G'day, Sam. How's it going? Sausage Boy is someone who has played tradie versus lady three times and lost three times. I was going to say, it really needs context, especially because we're doing breakfast hours. Okay, Sammy, your buzzer is tradie.

Rebecca, yours is lady. First of you to get three correct answers is going home with $50 cash. Good luck. Here we go, guys. Question number one. In Greek mythology, who is the god of the sky? Is it Ares, Zeus, or Poseidon?

Tradie. Yes, Sam? Ares. That's incorrect. Rebecca? Poseidon? No, we were looking for Zeus. Yeah, Sam. Aries. That's incorrect. Rebecca? Poseidon? No, we were looking for Zeus. Yeah, Zeus.

I get why you would say Aries, though, because air. Yeah. Yeah, it was a hard one. It was a hard one. Question number two. No points there for anyone. It's school holidays right now. How many weeks of the year do kids...

Yes, Sam. Twelve. Oh, so close. I've got to finish the question and, Bec, you get a free guess. How many weeks of the year do kids and teachers get off? Is it 9, 11 or 13? 13. We're looking for 11.

No points there still. Question number three. Parts of the South Island are blanketed with snow. What is the name of the snowman from the movie Frozen? Trudy. Yes, Sam. Elsa. No. Worth a guess, Sam.

I love the confidence though. She's in it. She's not the snowman. Worth a guess. Do you want to guess, Rebecca? Is it Olaf? It is Olaf. Nice work. You're on the board withman. Worth a guess. Do you want to guess, Rebecca? Is it Olaf? It is Olaf. Nice work. You're on the board with one. Question number four.

Buzz in when you can tell me who sings this song. Where I can run to the fastest I can. Freddie. Yes, Sam. Pink. Nice work, Sam. You're on the board. We are one apiece. Question number five.

How many Harry Potter books are there? Is it five? Yes, Rebecca? Eight. No, keep it, keep it, keep it. Oh, no. We've got to move on from that question because you said the answer. Oh, sorry.

Are we at one apiece? We're at one apiece. This is for the win then. We're going to make this for the win, guys. Question number six. Who was the president of the United States before Donald Trump? Freddie. Yes, Sam, for the win.

Barack Obama. Barack Obama. He's got it. Woo-hoo. Oh, Sam, you'll have bragging rights against Sausage Boy all day. I can't wait. I'm going to tell them that right after this. Love it.

Have a good one, man. We've got $50 cash coming your way. Awesome. Tell Sausage Boy we said hello. All right, Sam? Have a great day. Oh, yeah. Bree and Clint.

I was reading this article which was talking about different reasons that indicated you might be getting old. Oh, yeah, okay. And it was quite funny. And I thought we could go through them and just, you know, essentially do the quiz to see if we're getting old. Osteoporosis. No, not that old.

Oh, okay. Roll it back a few years. Just calm down. I woke up an inch shorter. My bones are brittle. My bones are turning to chalk. I think it's time to stop heading to clubs. Yeah, just, you're thinking too old. Okay,

let's kick it off with number one on this list of signs and reasons you might be getting old. You make decisions based on the food you have in the fridge. No young person, can I say, no young person is going into their fridge and going, okay, so I've got that chicken that I bought however many days ago. If I see the girls tonight, I will have to throw that out.

Oh, you mean you're making like socialising plans. I thought you meant you're like deciding what to eat. You're trying to come up with like a fridge meal out of random ingredients. You were saying you plan your social schedule around the food that you have. That's what I'm saying. That's what I took it as. I took it as if you have ordered HelloFresh, you're like, oh, I haven't used those three HelloFresh.

Nah, sorry. Oh, my God, that's so relatable. I can't come out tonight on a Wednesday because I've got three HelloFresh that I need to use. Wow. I never thought about that, but that is so relatable. So you don't do that? Well, no, I don to use. Wow. I never thought about that, but that is so relatable. So you don't do that? Well, no, I don't cook, so.

But if I did, yeah. You would? Yeah. Because you have been doing things lately where you have been trying to save money and you'll make one thing at the start of the week and then use it all. It'll last the whole week. Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So then. I take that out with me. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, totally. It's So then. I take that out with me. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, totally. It's not going well for me, by the way. I made a casserole that I thought I was going to eat for lunch every single day. And I saw the casserole on the first day. It was great. And I said, are you planning

to eat that every day? Yeah. When you're doing that, when you're meal prepping, it has to be good. Yeah. Or else you're never going to, it has to be good. Yeah. Or else you're never going to make it to the end of the week. Mine was cheap. It looked like cat food. I said, all this meat and this casserole brie, $5 for the whole week.

That's my lunch for the whole week. I looked at it and I said, by the grey colour, I can tell. It was grey. I can tell. It was grey. Not nice. Number two, signs you might be getting old. You make your plans based on the weather app.

Oh, yeah. Who doesn't do that? Young people do not do that. Really? They're not going, should we go to this music festival? Oh, it looks like it's raining. True. I don't remember ever checking the forecast in my 20s.

That's a really good point. Neither. It didn't matter. I was going out. I would just deal with it. Yeah, I get that. Number three, you've discovered the food that doesn't agree with you. Oh, yeah.

I discovered that years ago. Oh, I had that night out that we had on Friday after the party at Lula Inn. What didn't agree with you? I had some of our friend Mikal's onion bhaji. Didn't agree? Oh my God. I almost had to sleep in the spear bed for the whole weekend. That was not a good time. Not ideal. Onion bhaji? Yeah.

Yeah. Get me quite spud there. More like onion booty. Number four, you own a good version of particular items. Like what? So it'd be like, oh, that's my good version of that.

Yeah, that's not an example what you did. You just put it in a sentence. So like you could have a good version of your duvet set. Yeah. That you only bring out for like a special occasion. Oh, yeah, I've got that. Do all of these things make me old? Or like you could have a good version of certain towels

that you give guests when they come over. Yeah, I've got that. Yeah. Does that make me old? Yes, because when you're young, you can barely afford one set. Okay. You know?

Yeah. Juxtapose the nice towels with my shitty casserole. Yeah, okay. You're winning. Another one they said, you find another adult attractive, but they are still too young for you. Yeah. You know, you get into that age.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. If they're an adult and they're too, yeah. That's such an interesting way of looking at it. So you meet someone who's like, you're like, no, still too young. And the last one on this list, signs you might be getting too old, is when someone calls you a nice lady slash man. Oh, yeah.

Or you get sirred. I hate being called ma'am. Or ma'am. Ma'am's worse. You go into a store and you get ma'am. I'm much rather nice lady than ma'am. I got called ma'am by like one of the interns out in the office. They ma'amed you? Yeah, I

held the door open for them. One of the interns ma'amed you? And one of the interns goes, oh, thank you so much, ma'am. Oh my god, you're ready for the urn. Yeah, that is. Hey, for my birthday this year, can you guys give me some tennis balls? I'm going to put them on the bottom of my walker. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Just to get around. I had a moment the other day where I realised that I was old. Yes. And from a different generation. I went into this random part of TikTok, which was all vintage clothing, and I was looking at stuff for me. Yes. And then I heard

this TikTok, like, fashion influencer. She was doing girls' clothing, but she referred to the jeans that she was wearing as vintage Roxy. Vintage Roxy. And I clicked on the hashtag. There is an entire part of TikTok dedicated

to vintage Roxy. Roxy jeans, Roxy shoes, Roxy bags. And they're talking about it like it's stuff from the 70s. But it's not. It's Roxy stuff from the surf shop in the 2000s. That blows my mind. Do you remember the Roxy jeans that had the big Roxy across the bum? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

The producers wouldn't remember. That's vintage. They weren't alive. You get good money for that now. Yeah. You know, a thing that made me feel old recently was when I popped Sex and the City on. It's on Neon, if you want to watch it, all the series. Not the new one, the old school.

Yeah. And it's so old that it was made for square TV. Yeah. So it cuts off. Yeah. Like there's black parts on each side. And I was like, is that how old this show is? Yeah, exactly right.

Also, when I was watching State of Origin 1, and the commentator goes, James Tedesco, the captain of the Blues, 30 this year, the oldest player on the team. But he's barely even working. And I was like, oh my God. We're going to ask you this morning, 0800 dials it in, what was your I'm getting old moment? Yeah, what was that

light bulb where you were like, oh damn. I'm past it. Past my use by date. Yeah, hang me up. I'm done. There's so many good texts coming through on this. We've asked you, what was the moment, the realisation

that you were getting old? My mate Rob just texted and said, I knew I was getting old when someone in my team thought the original Jumanji was the first one with the rock in it. Wow. That's amazing. Someone else said.

Yeah, the original, not the sequel. Someone texted her and they said, I realised I was getting old when I started following lawn care pages on Instagram. Oh my God. I mean, they're so good to watch. Lean into that part of getting old because that's what makes it worth it. They said, then finding myself browsing grass seed at the local hardware store. You know what they call it, eh?

What? Lawn porn. Oh, yeah. It really is. What about that guy who goes to people's houses that have really overgrown lawns and says, I'll do it for free? Nothing gets my juices flowing more than watching someone edge a lawn like a curb. Oh, it's good, isn't it?

Cut the overgrown edge of the lawn back and it reveals this curb that hasn't been seen in years. It's such a tight edge, isn't it? Oh, man. I'm ready for the retirement home. Let's talk to Catherine. Hi, Catherine. Hi, Catherine.

Morning. Tell us, Catherine, what was the moment for you where you were like, I'm getting old? I no longer buy standing concert tickets. If there's no seating options, I don't go.

Claudia and Bree were just talking about this this morning. Literally. Because one of you has got standing tickets for Lizzo and one of you has got seated tickets and I think you're jealous of each other for different reasons. Yeah, I'm kind of jealous now that Claudia

has seeded tickets. Yeah. Would you even go, Catherine, to say you got tickets to, I don't know, let's take Taylor Swift for example. I know that's a seeded concert but it's three and a half hours. If you had to stand for the whole thing, would you go, Catherine? To

Taylor? I love Taylor. I'm trying to go see her at Wembley, but probably not. Yeah. It's way too much. Three hours, Catherine. That's like a marathon for me these days. The fact that you even had to think about it tells us that you are getting old. We're having this debate for Post Malone because it's standing only.

Yeah. We had that conversation this morning. Claudia and I were literally just talking about it. Because it's standing only. Yeah. We had that conversation this morning. Claudia and I were literally just talking about it. Because it's out of fields at Western Springs. Imagine how gutted

Post Malone would be if he knew that his target audience were like, oh, I wish it was a seated show. Catherine. Yeah.

Could we get Post Malone in a nice theatre or something like that? You know how people always say to meet front left or front right? My friends are always like,

Bree will be back left sitting down. Absolutely. Yes. We're with you, Catherine. Thank you. Holly's here. Kia ora, Holly. Hi, Holly.

Morena. Morena. Tell us, Holly, what was the moment for you where you were like, oh, I'm getting old? Caught up with the girls on Friday, had some wines and some nibbles, and we had a 20-minute conversation on our favourite laundry detergent.

Yes, ladies, go off. Never go back to powder again. You know what my sad mind just thought? Ask her which one. Ask her which one. Me too. Me too. So you guys have done the research and had a robust discussion over some rosés.

I need to know. What's the result? What is the best laundry detergent? It's from Costco. You've got to go up there and get it. It's $30 for six litres, and it'll last you three months. Are you on a liquid? A liquid laundry detergent?

It's got to be liquid. Can't use powder. Top loader or front loader? Front loader all day. Yeah, okay. See, yeah. I'm so invested in this conversation. Like, I'm. See, yeah. I'm so invested in this conversation. Like, I'm not being sarcastic.

I'm so invested. As we speak, the management here at ZM are picking up this radio show and they're putting it on the hits. They are physically moving it over to the hits. I feel myself being moved as we speak. Thank you, Holly. That's really helpful. Joe is here. Hi, Joe.

Hi, Joe. Morning. Morning, Joe. Tell us, what was the moment for you that made you feel old? When the Barrett brothers all ran out on the field for the All Blacks. I used to go to school with their parents. That's how you know you're getting old. Oh, my God, Jo.

Oh, Jo. That's amazing. You went to school. Yeah. Oh, you're in a whole different generation to the All Blacks. Yeah, well, just after I left school, my flatmate was actually dating one of the All Blacks back then. So, you know, it really puts a punch in the guts for the age one.

Which All Black were they dating, Colin Meads? Not quite. Do you remember back in the day, Kieran Crowley? No, but that says everything to me. Oh, don't make it feel worse, Clint. Jeez. Thank you, Jo. We appreciate your call. Thank you, Joe.

We appreciate your call. See you, Joe. All right. There's such good text coming through on this. Someone said, I realised I was old when I started quoting things that my mum used to say to me as a kid, to my own kids. Yeah. Someone else said, I realised I was old when I can't get off the ground without grunting.

Oh, that's me. I can't get down to the ground without grunting. Go on, give it a go. No, I'm not. No, that's humiliating. Bree and Clint. God, it's been a swifty mania, hasn't it? Hasn't it?

It's just taken over. Well, anyway, New Zealand and Australia, it's taken over in the last couple of weeks. So many tickets. I believe there was like 630,000 tickets available and just on one of the pre-sale days, there was

4 million people on the Ticket Tech website. That is insane numbers. So not everyone is going to get tickets. No, it's not possible. No, not possible at all. There was a story that I saw about an Aussie girl named Georgia Rose who logged on. It was on the Monday.

So on the Monday before even pre-sale, the American Express VIP package was available. Okay. Like you could log on if you had an MX card and buy a pre-sale like VIP package. Yeah. And she was talking about how she was going to buy a VIP package for her and her sister,

which means I think you get like front row like floor seats or like very close to the front row. Is that the one that comes with the tote bag? And then it's got like all this other crap that you don't want. Yeah. Like just stuff. We talked about this one. It's like the $1,200 ticket or something, right?

And it comes with. In New Zealand dollars, it's nearly $1,400. You get like a Taylor Swift like laminated poster. And like a Taylor Swift pin. And a t-shirt. It's just ludicrous. The Taylor Swift management are like, okay, this is $4 worth of shit. What else can we put with it to beef it out a little bit?

That'll be $1,200 a ticket, please. Just wild. But, hey, it gave you, I think, the opportunity to secure your tickets because not everyone. That's what it's about. You know? Yeah. And, anyway, she was talking about how she was going to buy two tickets,

one for her, one for her sister, both big Taylor Swift fans. I don't think I could pay $1,200 to go to any concert. I don't think I could either. I don't think I, unless you bloody, unless you resurrected Michael Jackson himself. I was going to say, if Elvis Presley came back for one night only. Even then, $1,200, I don't know. Mate, if they brought back someone from the dead,

you would pay $1,200. True. Yeah. It's pretty impressive. Like a real-life version of the Thriller video. Yeah. You're like, this is amazing. She was talking corpse dancing around the stage like,

shit, $1,200 is bargain. I've never seen this before. This is incredible. She said that she had four windows open at once and she was like trying to get in past the waiting room. Yeah. And she finally, after hours and hours of trying, she got through and she accidentally spent $10,000 on tickets.

Take a listen. I had four windows open. I was not expecting to get tickets in any of them. Tickets ended up showing up in all of them. So I was assessing my tickets and the Ticketek timer is counting down. It gets to two minutes. I'm like, okay, I'm going to go with those tickets crossed out of all the other windows.

We were only going for two tickets and that's what i thought i had in my car so i go through the next steps right in the cbb number and then click checkout and as the wheel's spinning to process the order i look in the background and it says ten thousand dollars so my sister and i only going vip once the rest of the tickets i'm just selling to family and friends that I know that missed out on tickets. Who is this ultra wealthy child that wasn't her credit card?

It was her dad's credit card. Nah, I'm not about this. He calls her from work and goes, hey, obviously you got through to buy Taylor Swift tickets. Did you just spend $10,000 on the MX? If I had accidentally spent $10,000 on my parents' credit card, you would not hear me speaking so calmly in a TikTok video.

I would be pulling my hair out, so stressed out that I had just bankrupt the whole family. And she's like, yeah, it's not the best situation, but I'm just going to sell the other $8,000 of tickets to family and friends. I don't know how we're going to pay off the fees that the credit card have, but we'll just, you know, it's not my problem. Who are these family and friends who are like, oh yeah, you got a spare $1,200 ticket to Taylor Swift, I'll take that. I'll have two, thanks.

Dad called and he said, babe, what are you doing? That's $10,000. I would literally, I would leave home and I would never return. You'd go into hiding. I would go into witness protection. To be honest, that's what you get for letting your child have your credit card on the internet though. Here, take my Amex. Do whatever you want.

Oh, you're going for the $1,200 tickets. Yeah, just take my credit card. Sweet. Yeah, you're good to go. Yeah, he actually Amex. Do whatever you want. Oh, you're going for the $1,200 tickets? Yeah, just take my credit card. Sweet. Yeah, you're good to go. Yeah, he actually knew that part. We're filling in for Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley for the next couple of weeks. Did you see this story about this woman

whose husband asked her for a divorce the day after the wedding? No, I didn't. It's wild. She's from Sydney. She's gone public on a radio show over there. No, I did see this. And then he just disappeared.

No. On a different one. No, what's that one? Didn't you see that? Well, her husband just vanished. Literally, she came home. All of his stuff was gone. Everything, like heaps of stuff was gone.

And he just vanished. God, that would mess you up. And I'm pretty sure he was an Australian. So he was an Australian. I can't remember where he was from. But you know how long they'd been together? I think they'd been together for like seven years.

And then as soon as they got married like a couple of weeks after he just vanished. Did he marry her for citizenship? Well, that's what she kind of, yeah. God, that would mess you up. I know. No, this is worse.

I don't know. She, her name's Rachel. She's from Sydney. She says when her and her new husband got back to the hotel room on their wedding night, he wanted to consummate the marriage. Right, as you do on a wedding night for most people. And she was too tired.

So she said, no, thank you. Okay. And went to sleep. The next morning, he demanded a divorce. Because of that? Because she didn't do the thing on the wedding night. And she was like, are you for real? He formally asked for a divorce

this is a true story did he go through with it um yeah two weeks later they split up rachel from sydney shortest relationship rach i was married for not even 24 hours before my husband wanted a divorce and we separated two weeks later what happened rachel the night of the wedding we went out and um when we got back to the hotel room, unfortunately, I didn't give him what he wanted. I didn't want to, and then the next day, yeah, he wanted a divorce. What a revolting man. What a revolting man.

That's on the Abbey Chatfield show in Australia, by the way. That is the weirdest thing. That is. To ask for a divorce because of that. It's so interesting to me his train of thought where you've just

gotten married. You've said, for better or worse, I love you for the rest of my life. I am committing to you through the good times and the bad times. Unless we don't do the dance tonight, then I'm leaving.

That is, I know it's not PC to say it, but that is small D energy. If you're having a tantrum, that's a tantrum. That is a big tantrum. And obviously ended really badly. And then two weeks later they've separated.

It makes you wonder. What a waste And obviously ended really badly. And then, yeah, two weeks later, they've separated. So. It makes you wonder. What a waste of money on the wedding as well. It obviously wasn't just from that. Well, yeah, yeah. Like, obviously, you know, we don't know what goes on in people's relationships or what's happened first. That's true.

But for that to be the catalyst, even that is just ridiculous. The day after the wedding as well. Bree and Clint. Fletch, Vaughn and Hayley have bought a two-week sickie. Lucky for you, Bree and Clint are filling in. Vaughn's gone to Disneyland. I saw that. Yeah.

I saw him and Sade living it up. I'm taking the girls to Disneyland. Dream. Dream. Have you ever been to Disneyland? No. Neither. No. And now that I've got kids, I can go. Oh, true. Because you ever been to Disneyland? No. Neither. No.

And now that I've got kids, I can go. Oh, true. Because see, I'd miss my window. Yeah. I don't want to be one of those weird adults

going to Disneyland, you know? What, a Disney adult? Yeah. I have a name. Not for me. Disney adults. Yeah.

That's a furry, eh? That's what a furry is. That is not what a furry is. Isn't it? No. Disney adults. No. A Disney that is not what a furry is. Isn't it? No. Disney adults. No. A Disney adult

is just someone who is deeply still obsessed with Disney. Is that not what a furry is? No. It's like a Ken K.

A furry Yeah. is a people Yeah. who like to dress up as furry animals so it could be

any kind of animal. But like full like mascot costume. Yeah. And, you know. Oh, do the thing. That's what a furry is. Yeah, right. Okay.

What's a hybrid one where you like to dress up as Goofy? Well, I mean, that's still a furry. Yeah, that's a furry, isn't it? Yeah. Who's the furriest Disney creature? Disney adults aren't dressing up as Disney characters. Well, some of them. I think some of them are.

Some of them might be, but not all of them. Tonight, you'll be sleeping with Snow White. You come in as... She's already asleep. I dress up as Zazu. Mike Wazowski. I'm watching you, Mike Wazowski. Sounds hot.

Maybe I'm a furry. Always watching. Brian Clint. Australia's legalised the pingas. You can't just say that with no context. Australia's legalised ickies and magic mushies. They're the first country in the world to allow doctors to prescribe certain psychedelic substances to patients who have depression or PTSD.

I'm really shocked by this because Australia normally is so late to the party with everything, like usually. Yeah. Quite an interesting one. But not when it comes to drugs, Ozzy. You're like, yeah, we'll leave the judge. Well, they're still behind on the marijuana topic. Doctors will be able to prescribe doses of MDMA,

which is also known as ecstasy, or I think the kids are calling it molly now, for PTSD. Right. And psilocybin, which is the psychoactive ingredient in psychedelic mushrooms or magic mushrooms, is going to be allowed to be given to people who have hard-to-treat depression. Isn't this incredible? It's quite interesting. Is magic mushrooms, are they just mushrooms?

Yeah. It's just a plant. It's just a plant. So pretty much the same as like marijuana. It's just a plant. It's just a plant. There pretty much the same as like marijuana. It's just a plant. It's just a plant. There's nothing added to it. Yeah.

The active ingredient is inside the mushrooms. Interesting. Yeah. It's a hallucinogen, but they're saying that something within it, there's enough research now that says something within it can help to rewire your brain and alter your brain chemistry to pull you out of depression, to pull you out of a depressive cycle? Well, I mean, obviously,

they've done quite a lot of testing on it because in the last however many years, microdosing LSD has been quite big. Yeah. And there's been those places where you go and they literally give you microdoses of LSD and you try and go through this experience. They made a whole TV show about it.

What was that show called? Nine Perfect Strangers? Yeah, yeah. But places like that actually exist. Not a documentary though. No, but they exist. Yeah. Places like that do exist.

Do they? Yeah. So the way you're going to get prescribed it in Australia is then you're not just going to go there and go, oh, I'm depressed. And they go, here, have some mushies. You have to do a lot of therapy with it. Right.

And I believe, I don't know for sure, but I believe it's like guided. So they will- It'd be micro dosing. No, they'll give you a pretty decent dose, I believe. But if they do that, you're in a therapy room with the therapist and they will guide you through the, what would otherwise be called a trip. So that's the only time you're allowed it?

Well, I don't know. Imagine. You go to therapy and they say, alright, here's your MDMA and then you're like, excuse me Mr. Therapist Man, I'm deeply in love with you. I love you so much.

Here's a three-day camping pass for Rutherford Vines. Here's a bag of Magic Mushrooms. That's the full package. Here's a $50 KFC voucher. You know what? I'm all for stuff like this in terms of... I'm very much for it. I'm all for...

Even like medical marijuana, I think I'm very pro because studies have shown how much it helps people. Not only people going through obviously depression or other things but also like cancer treatment and Parkinson's. It really

helps people and it's a plant. There are benefits that need to be explored and researched. If you're interested in this stuff. There's an actually, if you're interested in this stuff, there's an incredible documentary on Netflix that I watched by the author Michael Pollan. It's called How to Change Your Mind. They do lots of things within it but they have an

episode about MDMA, an episode about LSD, an episode about psilocybin which is in magic mushrooms and they actually film like Iraq war veterans who have got debilitating PTSD. And how much it changes. And they film their session

where they get given this dose of MDMA and then they have like an eye mask on and they're in this dark room and they're guided through this experience with a therapist. And the change that it makes to them is absolutely incredible. Yeah, it's pretty interesting them is absolutely incredible. Yeah.

It's pretty interesting, isn't it? Yeah. Although some people are going to hear that and they're going to go, all right, time to start self-medicating. When is the next flight to Australia? Bree and Clint. Time for the latest. From iHeartRadio, this is The Latest.

Jason Momoa is leaving New Zealand. Yeah, he's been here for quite a while, hasn't he? He's been here since September last year. Has he? Yeah. Filming the new TV show, Chief of War for Apple TV. Out at Pihar, I believe. Actually, I think all over the place,

but a lot of it out at Pihar, I think. Shoes a lot of New Zealanders on the production. The TV show looks incredible. Yeah. Sorry, I'm really puffed out to run to the other side of the kitchen. It's based on... Have you got asthma? I don't know.

Trying to make a coffee. Sounds like from here. It's based on the true story of a warrior chief that was caught up in the colonisation of Hawaii in the 1700s. I didn't realise

it was a true story. Yeah, well, based on a true story. Based on a true story. He is the perfect person for that show. I mean, yes, no doubt in my mind. Like, you know when that whole thing came out where you put your photos in and AI made you into all those different...

Yeah. He just normally looks like one of those. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Exactly right. He posted a video on his Instagram over the weekend about how he's at ease. He's gone. It's the last day. Last day in New Zealand before

we're wrapping. Been a long run. Love you everyone. More to come. He's basically a Kiwi now. I, well, he I just think it's quite interesting to me that Fletchvorn and Hayley went on holidays and we know the background and all of a sudden he's leaving New Zealand.

Where's Hayley? Has she posted about where she is? No, she has not. Has she posted photos with her boyfriend Aaron? No, she has not. Yeah, very interesting. He is basically a Kiwi. I know we inducted you as an honorary

Kiwi last week. I think we should do the same for Jason Momoa. I think he's ready. Let's throw him off the Auckland Harbour Bridge. Yeah, make him climb the Sky Tower. He'd eat that for breakfast. He is basically one of the All Blacks now. He's at every All Blacks event. I saw he had a launch party for his

vodka brand in Auckland City the other week. That's on his TikTok. Israel Adesanya was there. All the big names. Yeah. Yeah, he's kind of like... He loves it here. Yeah, I think so.

I feel like he definitely feels at home. Yeah, which is nice. You want that, eh? Yeah. Well, you want that for the celebrities that we like. Yeah, totally. The ones that we vibe with. We're like, yeah, you should stay.

Bree and Clint. I read this interesting article last week, which was talking about this new study that's vibe with. We're like, yeah, you should stay. Bree and Clint. I read this interesting article last week, which was talking about this new study that's been done from the International Employment and Hiring Company Remote, where they've looked into different countries around the world and which countries have the best work-life balance. Oh, yeah, okay. Right?

So the way they determined it. It'll be freaking Norway or something. which countries have the best work-life balance. Oh, yeah, okay. Right? So the way they determined it. It'll be freaking Norway or something. It's always Norway or Sweden. Hey, don't be so negative. You wait. You wait. So the overall score for each country. Just listen.

Sorry. Was determined by factors including minimum wage, sick leave, maternity leave, healthcare availability, public happiness, average working hours, and the LGBTQ plus inclusivity. Okay. Okay, so it was based on those. And do you want to hear the top five? Yeah. Let's go through the top five. I was listening to that list.

I feel like we rank pretty well in all of them. Yeah. Except for maybe the happiness one. We're a bit grim at the moment, but yeah. So let's go through the top five. Denmark came in with a score of 73 out of 100. Yeah. Well, 73.67.

Apparently considered one of the happiest nations according to the Happiness Index. Yeah. Congratulations, Denmark. You know how much? They get 36 days of annual leave. Wow. Yeah, which is pretty cool. Okay.

Number four was Australia. Yeah. 73.71, so just slightly above Denmark. And I reckon sunshine's got a big part of that. Like if you can go and do something after work, you're much happier than if you're going to work in the dark. It says here. Coming home in the dark and it's cold and raining.

I feel like sunshine, the ability to go outside. That's literally the top thing on its list. It says known for its laid back culture and all year round favourable climate. Yeah, I get that. 3,000 hours of sunshine a year, apparently. Yeah. So that came in at number four.

Number three was France. Apparently – Because you can smoke at your desk in France. It will be. It will be. A generous wage, apparently, in France. Yeah. 36 days of annual leave.

So they came in at third. Number two was Spain. And apparently in Spain, they're scoring consistently well across the board in everything. So 36 days of annual leave. Chorizo and everything. And one of the shortest working weeks on average. Really? In Spain. Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Well, of the shortest working weeks on average. Really? In Spain.

Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Well, who's number one? Number one. The best work-life balance, according to this study, New Zealand. Really? See?

You were so glass half empty. Really? Well, I kind of also. I don't get it. So do you want to hear what they said? New Zealand has the best work-life balance in the world. This is what they said. Okay.

The index study revealed New Zealand to be the country with the best life-work balance. New Zealand scored highly across several metrics, offering a generous statutory annual leave allowance, 32 days. That's not more than any of those other ones that were on the list. No, it's good though. A high rate of sick pay, 80%, and a government-funded universal healthcare system. Oh, yeah.

The healthcare system in New Zealand is top notch. Do they know that it's $3 a litre for gas, though, and cucumbers are $7? And the weather has been shite lately. Oh, well, there you go. Enjoy that. You might not want to goite lately. Oh well, there you go. Enjoy that. You might not want to go to work this morning but this study. Suck it up because this study says that you love it. Yeah, it's from a

random company that we don't know but Bree and Clint. This is big because this is a debate that has loomed over humankind for many, many years and it's the debate of, does tomato sauce go in the fridge or the pantry?

I've had so many arguments about this. It's a big one. And I feel strongly about it. It's huge. But the reason why we're talking about it this morning is because Heinz, who make tomato sauce, have commented on the debate about what is the right place to put tomato sauce.

Just bear in mind, I just want everybody to remember, this is just Heinz opinion, okay? This is their opinion. Well, they also did a study of 2,000 people, which revealed that 60% felt one way and 40% felt the other way. That's pretty split to me. Well, we can tell. 60-40 is pretty split.

We can tell where Clint's opinion lies. I will explain why and I feel like I'll convert some people today. Let's talk about the tweet that they sent out. This was on June 27th and Heinz UK said this, FYI, ketchup goes in the fridge. Wrong. That's what they've said. Wrong, Heinz company. Goes in the fridge.

Wrong. Shouldn't we put in ketchup and tomato sauce in the same category here? Same, same. Same, same? Same, same. Same, same. It does not go in the fridge and I'll tell you why. Because it's cold and it's yuck when it's in the fridge.

And then you put it on your plate with your hot chips or your fish, and then you're dipping it into fridge cold sauce. Disgusting. I quite like that. If I wanted cold fish and chips, I'd put it in the fridge too. I would. Or I'd wait until all the heat went out of it, and then I'd eat it. Why do I want to chill it down?

Might as well run my piece of fish under the tap if I'm going to put it in cold tomato sauce. Doesn't it make sense though if you have a hot steaming pie, you then chuck a bit of tomato sauce on it and it's like a nice vibe where it cools it down enough. So the lid of it is all cold and then the insides are piping hot. No. Yeah, because you chew it in your mouth so then it like is the perfect temperature. It tastes better tomato sauce itself if you're having it for flavour, which is what you're actually having it for. You're not having it as a coolant.

It tastes better at room temperature. Yeah, I just I don't mind it in the fridge. I don't mind it cold. Why does it need to be in the fridge? Because it is food and once it's open, it will go off. Do you know how much salt and sugar is inside that thing? Yeah.

I reckon... It says printed on the label of tomato sauce bottles, it clearly specifies that sauce should be refrigerated after it's been opened. Yeah, they say that about milk too, but you can keep that in the pantry. I mean, you can. Chicken? It won't be milk after a day, though. Chicken, you know how you have dry-aged steak.

Have you tried keeping chicken breasts in the pantry? Yeah. You've just got to keep it somewhere dark, and it's fine. Could you imagine back in the day? I'm just crediting myself here. I don't believe any of those last things that I said, except for the tomato sauce one. Is there anything else that is like that grey area

where some people keep it in the fridge and some people keep it in the pantry? Yes, Producer Claude, what's another thing? Butter. Oh, yeah. Butter is a good one. I was a fridge person forever and then moved into a flat and they were cupboard people and I was like,

what are you doing? You can't keep the whole block in the cupboard because it will go rancid, but you can keep a chunk in the cupboard. That's weird. That's weird. It makes it easier to spread. And then in summertime, it melts.

Oh, no, you can't do it in summer. It melts. And then you're like, what am I meant to do with this? That's why I get the spreadable butter because I like to keep it in the fridge. Okay, someone's texted us. Here's a good one. Vegemite and Marmite. Fridge or pantry?

That's a good one. Once it's open, fridge or pantry? Pantry. Pantry. Pantry. Pantry, right, Claude? Yeah, pantry. Pantry, for sure. Apples in or out of the fridge? Oh, I love them in the fridge. They obviously don't need to be refrigerated.

No. But it crisps them right up, doesn't it? It does keep them, as a daughter of an apple farmer, apples in the fridge keep them crisper for way longer. Eggs. Fridge or pantry? Fridge. Yeah, fridge. But people keep them on their benchtop. Some people have that nice little

basket of eggs. Like, think about it. No, it's disgusting to me. But why are they not in the fridge at the supermarket? At the supermarket, they're on a shelf. You know, in some countries, eggs are in the supermarket aisle. I mean, in the fridge aisle, yeah. What about bread?

Bread fridge, because it lasts longer. I prefer cupboard, but yeah, it lasts longer. I keep my bread in the freezer, and I just... Oh, no. Yeah. And then it gets freezer burn on it? Well, no, I eat it. It's not in there for like a month.

What, so you just, when you get home after buying groceries, you go bread straight in the freezer? Yeah, it keeps it fresh. Do you? This text is disgusting. This is back to the tomato sauce fridge or pantry thing. After squirting room temperature sauce wriggling with tiny maggots out onto my food, it's been fridge for me ever since.

So can we lock in fridge then? All right. Hell no. Brian Clint, you need to buy a smaller sauce here on ZM. Brian Clint. What did you think of her

in House of Gucci? Didn't see it. Oh, you didn't see it? Nah. The movie got bad reviews so I didn't bother watching it. Yeah. I don't watch any movies

so I wasn't going to waste my time on a movie that's got bad reviews. Why am I talking, why do I continue to ask if you've seen certain movies? I know the answer is no. Do you know what I tried to watch on the weekend?

What? Indiana Jones. Oh, my God. The first one, not the new one. How have you never seen Indiana Jones? I know. Wow. I know.

That was my whole plan for the weekend. Still haven't seen Indiana Jones. Clint's like, I saw this amazing animation film for the first time on the weekend. Have you heard of, what's it called? The Lion King? It's incredible. It's so good. Hey, everyone is talking about this news that Apple released

the other day. Yeah. People are panicking and I don't really understand it. You tried to explain it to me, which I think I understood it the most, but here's the deal. So Apple announced that it will permanently delete the My Photo Stream album on everyone's phones on July 26th. Okay.

Which I don't really understand fully what the My Photo Stream album is. So it says here the feature automatically stores pictures taken in the last 30 days. Yeah, okay. Yeah. It's designed to make it easy to sync photos across multiple devices. So the My Photo Stream should mean that your photos from the last 30 days are on all of your devices.

If you have an iPad, a phone, a MacBook. So it just automatically gives you the latest photos. Without having to import your entire iPhoto library. I believe that's what it is. Right, okay. I kind of... But it is confusing because that's from someone who doesn't

have an iPhone. That's my summation of it. But no platform has got the cloud syncing thing. Not that they haven't got it working, they haven't got it to a place where any of us understand how it works. I feel like iCloud is one of Apple's worst inventions. I don't understand iCloud at all. Does anyone understand it?

I haven't had an iPhone for five years and I'm still paying $1.69 a month for my iCloud because I'm too terrified to stop paying for it because what if there's photos in there that I want one day? Yeah, but there's not. Have you needed them in the last five years? No. No.

But this is where they get you though because the effort you would have to go to to go through those photos or to find them or to remember the password or anything is more than just paying $1.69. Absolutely. I'd rather just pay $1.69 than keep kicking the can down the road. It's trauma having to think about getting rid of every single photo from your past, you know?

Yeah. In the meantime, everyone is just, every time it's time to buy a new phone, you have to go up a gigabyte rating so that you can fit all your photos on there. That's how they get you. Yeah. That's how, I think I'm on, my phone is humongous. Like the memory storage, I paid the most for the memory. Just so you don't have to clear out your photos?

Literally. I thought we could have a look through our phones right now. Yeah. And I just like outed myself. I literally just don't deal with it. I put it in the too hard basket and I'll be like, I'll just buy the next size up in memory. Me too.

And I thought we could have a look at how many photos are currently sitting on our phone. Yep. Like how many do you have, not in the cloud. No, on your device. On your device. How many photos are you carrying around with you every day? Exactly.

Yep. What are you rocking on the old Samsung? Hi, my name is Clint Roberts. And I have 17,535 photos on my phone. Of what? You know? Kids and cats. Oh, that makes sense.

That does make sense. I've got all good photos. I don't have 17,000 photos that I'd like to print out. Yeah. You know? So why are you keeping them? There'll be some screenshots of some food that I liked one time in there. Just never know when you might need that shot of your cacciatore from three years ago.

I'm running 17,500 photos. Brie Thomasel. I'm close to you. I'm just over 16,000. Yeah. And I reckon you could delete that entire album and nothing in your life would change. I reckon the ones... Don't talk about that.

I reckon the ones that you want are on Instagram or Facebook, but you just keep them for whatever reason. What about all the, you know, what about my private album? Oh, have you got one of those? Nah, I wish I did, though. It'd be saucy, wouldn't it? Oh, $100.00 at M.

Can anyone out there beat 17,000 photos on their phone right now? Yeah, how many photos do you currently have sitting on your phone? Yeah. We're talking about how Apple's going to delete the photo stream. I think I've figured it out. I think I've figured it out. Good, because I haven't. Yeah, people are up in arms. They're like, oh,'s going to delete the photo stream I think I've figured it out I think I've figured it out Good, because I haven't Yeah, people are up in arms They're like, oh, you can't delete my photos

I don't know how to back anything up I don't print my photos off I'm definitely not saving them to a hard drive I'm not doing any of that stuff Your photo stream takes your photos from the last, like, 30 days Yes And spreads them across all your devices using the cloud This is how a lot of people get caught doing dodgy things.

Oh, because it ends up on the iPad. It's the family iPad. Yes. And then the photos that they've taken with their mistress end up on the, yeah. Exactly right. So it will spread those photos across your devices for 30 days. Right. Up to 1,000 photos.

Wow. That's a lot. And Apple are turning that feature off. So those photos are going to get deleted if you don't have them backed up to your iCloud or permanently saved on your device. Lost me. Yeah, no, it doesn't make sense.

Don't ever say iCloud because you lost me. I don't understand the cloud. Whoever invented the iCloud is just, everybody's $1.69 that comes in every month, they're just like I wonder who did invent the iCloud. Say 20 million people have an iCloud device. That's 20, that's

Wow, yeah, when you put it that way it's a lot of money. So we're asking you how many photos are on your device because you have no idea what to do with them. Chelsea's here. Hi Chelsea. Hi Chelsea. Hi, Chelsea. Hi. I've got sitting here about 22,971. Damn, Chelsea. And what do you reckon the majority of those photos are?

Oh, mate, they go back all the way to about 2004. So there's a lot of just everything. Yeah. Chelsea, how bad is the quality of the 2004 photos oh mate they're so bad I think I don't even know what they were taken on and you'll never use them you'll never use those photos you'll never print them out you'll never do anything with them nah but it's good to like if you're looking

for something I found with the iCloud I'm like always like oh I know I took a photo of that and you go back but you've got to scroll so far. So far. I can imagine. It'd take two days to get back there, Chelsea. Some of the AI is pretty good now.

Like you can go into your album of, I know you've got 16,000 photos. You can type and you go, I know I took a photo of. This particular thing. Banana that I really liked. And you can type in banana. Why am I taking a photo of a banana? I don't know. I was thinking of an example.

It will bring up all the photos where it can recognise a banana. Is that a metaphor for something? Yeah, it is. Chantelle's here. Hi, Chantelle. Hi, Chantelle. Hi, guys. Tell us, Chantelle, how many photos do you currently have on your phone? Yeah, a little bit worse than Chelsea. I've just checked over 28,000 photos. Chantelle, how long have you been collecting these for? And how slow is your phone? No, it's not that bad.

And even worse than Chelsea, mine's more recent, from 2009. Wow. Have you got kids? Kids really blow it out with a lot of photos on there. Or dogs. Or cats. No, no cats and dogs just kids kids

yeah yeah and how many kids I'm interested four oh well no wonder you've got so many photos Chantel when we were kids

I think our parents took four photos of each of us a year and that was it that's it and you've got four photos from 1998 four photos from 1999

what was it like now if your kid is you've got four photos from 1998, four photos from 1999. What was it like? Now, if your kid is doing anything, you take 15 photos so that you get the angle right, the lighting right. You know, that's the problem. Do you still have those black and white photos of you? Katie's here. Hi, Katie. Hi.

Katie, tell us, do you have the winner? How many photos do you currently have stored on your phone? I'm a bit embarrassed to say. No, don't be embarrassed. I currently have 53,668. Okay, yeah, no. 53,000 photos. That's unbelievable, Katie.

That would take you weeks to sort through those photos, to thin that album out. Weeks, months. And it's not worth it either. Why do you have so many photos? Are you a photographer? No. Yeah.

I don't know. I just, I don't want to delete any. Like, what if I need them? Like, my kids. Yeah. Kate, can I ask, is there photos, because, I mean, it sounds like so many, so I don't know how long it goes back. Do you keep photos of, like, past relationships?

Do you keep, like, just of everything? It's everything. So it's only since 2015 as well. Oh, my God. Since our first son was born. Yeah. Well, you win. Congratulations.

I don't know if that's a prize worth winning, but you've won it. You're the champion. I just picture Kate going through her day taking a photo of literally every single thing. Someone just texted and said, I have 170,000 photos on my phone. 170,000?

How much room would they need on their phone? I don't know. Someone else said police officers have a huge amount of photos on their iPhones because they have to constantly. Do you have to use your own iPhone as a police officer? Oh, they'd have a work phone. Surely.

And they get them like the big storage. I love this text though. Over 19,000 photos. More telling though is that 3,500 of those are screenshots. And then they say say i'll always have receipts no way oh oh those kind of screenshots i saw this article talking about uh a guy who bought a lifetime first class ticket on an airline okay and i believe this was quite a long time ago. I think it was back in 1990 and the airline was United Airlines, the American airline. It's a huge airline. Huge airline. And

they were offering lifetime passes to passengers for first class seats. Yep. Depending on how much it was, that could be the deal of a lifetime. It could be, right? It could be. So how much do you think? What's the catch? Can you only fly domestic? No catch.

Can you only fly once a year? No catch. No catch. I don't believe there was a catch. This was back in 1990. They don't do it anymore. No. And I think because of this guy.

This guy was one of the main reasons. So his name is Tom Struka. And back in 1990, how much do you think he paid for a lifetime first class ticket? $50,000? $100,000? It cost him $510,000. That's US, so I've done the conversion. Okay.

$840,000 New Zealand back in 1990. Right, so it wasn't some crazy, stupidly priced thing. No. They were costing it up and going, oh, you'll probably fly this much. Yeah. So half a million dollars, US, in the 90s in the 90s so i've done some math on this to see if it was the right decision or not yeah so apparently and this is i think this

guy is the reason why they stopped doing it because of how much he has used it so this guy This guy in total has flown 23 million miles, which I did do the conversion. I think it's like 37 million kilometres or 300. Yeah, 37 million kilometres. Yeah. Which is a lot. Yeah. Which means if he had bought all of those flights, like over those years,

it would have cost him around $4 million New Zealand dollars. Oof. And he's done it all in first class. He's done it all in first class. Since the 90s. So he's been flying on this free ticket for 30 years. Yeah, right. But it's not just the first class seat, what he gets.

Do you want to hear what else he gets? So he gets, I believe a Mercedes picks him up at any airport, always picks him up. Okay. He also gets champagne every flight, obviously. First class. First class. He has his own special check-in station.

First class. With a back door to the front of the security queue. He has VIP airport lounge passes with free fine dining, spa treatments, showers and sleeping quarters. The one thing he says he won't do, though, is he won't let people carry his bags, which is a part of the service. But he said, no.

So relatable. I will carry my own bag. But he said, no. It's so relatable. I will carry my own bag. So he spent half a million dollars on this ticket in the 90s. Yeah. Which he can't on-sell to somebody else. I don't believe so. And he's taken $4 million worth of flights. You could have bought a pretty nice house in the 90s

for half a million dollars. Yeah, you could have. Which would be worth $4 million now. Yeah. But would you have got to travel to every part of the world? This is the thing, right? They'd be so sick of him. They'd be contacting him every year going,

hey, we get it. Apparently he flies every single week. Yeah. Every week. I reckon he would have had to lawyer up. They would have tried to get the ticket off him by now. That would have been like, this is getting a bit out of control.

This is getting out of hand. That's Morgan Wallen and Last Night. While we're filling in for Fletch, Vaughan and Hayley in the morning for the next couple of weeks, we've got a special guest covering our show. Welcome to the show, PJ. PJ. Can you hear the bathroom fan?

Are you in the bathroom? I just had to lock myself in the shower because my baby's going off and we're in like an inner city apartment. Ah. Yeah, yeah. And like,

poor mate. Yeah, we're not in the country anymore. So I'm just, I'm literally, this is like a safe space. So I've got a couple of minutes. I saw your Instagram story that you were traveling up

from the farm. You did a night in the Turuwa. Are you in Auckland? Are you here in time to do the show this afternoon? I'm with the Big smart guys and we're literally put ourselves in like this building which is lovely, like always

grateful but we're nearly 30 floors high and I read in the news today that it's meant to be like 120k winds and they're going to shut the harbour bridge. Yeah, not the best time to be in a skyscraper. Is this you announcing that you're not covering our show this week? Can't get here.

I'm just saying if I don't make it, that's why. Or she'll be living in the studio for the next couple of weeks. We can get that too. Who's on baby duty

while you're in here doing the radio? Oh my God, I feel so bad. My mum is and she's amazing but like, this is my first real time.

You know, like I've had time away but this is the first real time so she's an absolute hero and she is on Charlie's duty for the next two weeks. She's just going to get towed into the studio. Yeah, how old is Charlie now, PJ? He's 10 months. Oh yeah, cute. So he's getting there, but your poor mum's kind of like, oh, don't remember how to do this. She'll be like, see you later, bye.

Nah, she'll be fine. Milk it for all it's worth, Paige. That's awesome. Yeah, I do. The show's called PJ and Friends. Who's your friends that you're doing the show with? Oh, God. It's so awkward because I don't know if they knew that they were going to be called friends.

You know when it's like a one-way street? But no, it's a bunch of awesome people over the next couple of weeks. We've got Matty McLean first up. Oh, yeah, cool. We've heard of him before. Yeah, Matty boy. He can cover all the news and all that kind of stuff.

Weather. He's good. A lot of weather at the moment. He's good on the weather. He's good for weather. He's great on the weather. A lot of weather chat and I love you bringing it up because it is freezing around the country today and I think, I don't know how stingy Ross Boss is these days. I'm going to see if we can give some like, I don't know, prizes away to people who are in the cold spots or something.

What prizes? Oh Paige, you've been away for a long time, mate. That budget went a long time ago. You can give away your own stuff. You can give away puffer jackets, but you'll be taking them off the back of the Black Thunder drivers. Oh, wow. A time set dyer. PJ.

They've taken away tissues in the office. We're not allowed tissues here. I was going to say private safety, was it? Or no? No, it's budget cuts. Who are your other friends? What other friends are joining you? I don't know.

Am I allowed to tell? I don't know. Are you allowed to tell? No one's told us yet. I'm going to drip feed. I'm going to hold it for all it's worth. I'm looking out to the office. I'm going to say Debbie's on today.

I'm looking out to the office to find out if we're allowed to say. Ross is giving, no, Lucy is giving the thumbs up. Is that the thumbs up? No, it's not. It's not the thumbs up. We're not allowed to say who your friends are. Guys, I'm going to milk it for all it's worth. Every morning I was like, today? I heard Paula Bennett's joining you for one day. Oh, yeah.

Well, there is, okay, there is like a gap in the schedule. So there's to be confirmed. So maybe that's when Paula's coming in. Yeah, no, I've heard. She messaged me and told me. PJ and Paula Bennett. Paula and PJ getting you home. I would listen to that show, to be honest.

I would too. Hey, Paige, we're so excited to have you back on ZM. And it kicks off today at 3pm, the PJ and Friends show. We'll see you then. Hey, thanks, guys. Looking forward to it. So excited, PJ. And remember, no swearing, okay? I know. I know. Yeah.

Can you hear the bathroom fan? Are you in the bathroom? I just had to lock myself in the shower because my baby's going off and we're in an inner city apartment. And like, poor mate. Yeah, we're not in the country anymore. So I'm just,

I'm literally, this is like a safe space. So I've got a couple of minutes. I saw your Instagram story that you were travelling up from the farm. You did a night in the Turuwa. Are you in Auckland? Are you here in time to do the show this afternoon? I'm with the Big Smart guys. And we're literally put ourselves in this building, which is lovely.
